1. [+424, -26] Can we please not ask annoying questions like this
2. [+392, -18] Do you know kimchi? Do you know Kim Yuna? Do you know Psy? Now we have "Do you know BTS?"
3. [+330, -22] Ugh that's so annoying
4. [+44, -7] Ugh... embarrassing. You could ask people in Korea and there'd still be a lot of people who don't know BTS yet, why would you ask that all the way in America... as if Do you know Yuna Kim, Jisung Park, or Psy wasn't annoying enough, now it's BTS... Can we get some better hosts?
5. [+36, -21] There are a lot of Koreans who still don't know BTS yet... why would you ask that
6. [+25, -1] Shouldn't we be having a professional reporter for interviews like this? That's an actress and her dentist husband ㅜㅜ it's not like we don't have reporters who can't speak English ㅜㅜ
7. [+24, -15] I have no idea why a Korean person asking if they know any Korean singers like BTS or Psy for a Korean TV show is something to be "embarrassed" over. Those actors are in this interview to promote their movie and our country's TV show is paying big buck to have them. Why wouldn't we ask them questions that will help them relate more to Korean fans? Is asking about what's trendy lately so wrong? BTS ranked #1 on the Billboard and they're achieving things worldwide... Why would you praise them one moment and then feel embarrassed the next?
8. [+22, -4] Can we please get some decent reporters like Eric Nam and up the quality of these questions
9. [+22, -7] From now on, foreigners need to do Korean interviews while wearing a BTS t-shirt, wearing skates, holding a piece of kimchi in their mouth, and doing the horse dance
10. [+18, -20] There's a Korean American in the cast and she doesn't know BTS so I guess BTS isn't that publicly known over there ㅜ
