Sam Okyere talks about racism in Korea and the problematic usage of 'black brother'

Article: "Please call me by my name rather than 'heuk hyung'"... Sam Okyere confesses about racism in Korea Source: Ilgan Sports via Nate heuk hyung = black brother 1. [+2,057, -89] Ah... heuk hyung.. I never thought of the word as racist and I'm so embarrassed for that. I thought it was just a friendly, witty term of endearment. I'll have to fix that, how does Okyere oppa sound ㅋㅋ 2. [+1,713, -67] He's right. Racism is rampant in Korea. If you're not a handsome blonde English speaker, people will be racist to you. 3. [+1,570, -74] I understand elders being racist because they haven't had much opportunities to come across foreigners but our generation shouldn't be like that, especially to South East Asianers... 4. [+93, -5] If the person feels that he is being discriminated against, then it is our responsibility to stop it 5. [+65, -7] He himself is saying he hates being called black brother so why would anyone try to argue that it's not r...

[Abnormal Summit E130] Flight disturbance & situations of USA and Mexico

Article : 'Abnormal Summit' Mark, "Flight disturbance? Conrad Hilton also caused it in the US" Source: OSEN via Naver MC: "A Korean passenger's flight disturbance was reported globally by Richard Marx. It was an international embarrassment." Mark: "Paris Hilton has a dongsaeng named Conrad Hilton. He had also caused flight disturbance. He kept walking back and forth on the flight and made other passengers nervous. He even tried to smoke cigarettes and marijuana. He called the passengers "peasants" and said to the flight attendants, "Why are you siding with peasants? Shouldn't you be on my side?" " - 1. [+3645, -21] We need at least one or two male flight attendants that look like Ma Dong Seok 2. [+1647, -13] Idiots exist everywhere 3. [+1193, -30] There are idiots everywhere ㅋㅋ He's a nobody but Hilton's dongsaeng. 4. [+1054, -17] Doing those things still won't get you arrested here. This country's law...

[Abnormal Summit Ep.54] Discusses viruses + guest Hwang Suk Jung

Article : [Video] 'Abnormal Summit' Hwang Suk Jung, "MERS situation, fear is a bigger problem" Source: JTBC via Naver 1. [+1447, -232] It was the first episode I watched after the change. I didn't like how Zhang Yuan was sitting there with his weird thoughts and no knowledge. MC Jun Hyun Moo keeps cutting others off and laugh. He doesn't deserve to be there. He should be neutral as a former-announcer MC but he's not and he seems to be dominant. It's not likable. 2. [+1167, -64] I was frustrated when the MCs kept interrupting them 3. [+789, -52] Growing fear will make people avoid each other... What she's saying is not wrong - Article : 'Abnormal Summit' Hwang Suk Jung, "the government failed to deal with MERS in the beginning" Source: Xports News via Naver 1. [+697, -82] Suk Jung noona is on point. Thank you for speaking on behalf of the citizens. 2. [+656, -55] Yes, you can't refute it because it's a fact 3. [+658, -85] S...

[Abnormal Summit Ep.53] 'Living in Korea', guest Kwanghee, G12

Article : 'Abnormal Summit' Kwanghee grins widely at the members that don't know Siwan Source: Xports News via Naver 1. [+7120, -661] Kwanghee ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 2. [+6558, -1000] Kwanghee is funny and cute 3. [+5788, -551] I'm so pissed off ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Sorry to the new members but I feel more attached to the old members. When they were doing the soccer competition, I wanted the old cast team to win. Aigo, why do I miss the old members so much... 4. [+4461, -866] ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Kwanghee is likable 5. [+3165, -314] Every single day, there's an article of Kwanghee talking about Siwan 6. [+1029, -58] Jun Hyun Moo needs to stop defending the SM trainee 7. [+916, -32] The Japanese guy is too weak for discussions. The Brazilian guy is quite fierce. 8. [+862, -29] Julian's presence was really big. He wasn't even my favorite member but it felt empty without him... 9. [+836, -27] The Norway representative is good. But the Japan rep doesn't fit because Abnormal Summit is both a variety show and...

[Abnormal Summit] New G6 revealed + SM fest

Article : 'Abnormal Summit', new G6 revealed Source: OSEN via Naver Brazil - Carlos (30) Norway - Nicholas (28) Greece - Andreas (26) Poland - Przemysław   (31) Egypt - Sami (26) Japan - Yuta (20) 1. [+25302, -898] Didn't they say they won't put same countries? I don't understand why Ilya had to leave when he was on par with Tyler. They took Takuya out and added a Japanese SM trainee who hasn't even debuted yet? At this rate, G11 will end up from all SM. Change 'Abnormal Summit' to 'SM Summit' 2. [+19611, -891] Why did they take Takuya out for another Japanese kid? And I want more Asian panelists ㅠㅠ 3. [+17300, -320] What's with the Japanese panelist!!!! I don't hate Japan but what does that make Takuya? So mean 4. [+14106, -1474] Honestly, member change was needed. But I don't understand why Sam didn't leave ㅋㅋ He barely talks anymore 5. [+7700, -329] For a second, I thought the Japanese panelist was Takuya ㅋㅋ 6. [+3760, -46] I ...

[Abnormal Summit Ep.52] First anniversary + G6's farewell

Article : 'Abnormal Summit' G6's regretful farewell 'touching' Source: Xports News via Naver 1. [+10793, -106] They should've just made a completely new season. It's so mean to cut a several members on the 1st anniversary episode. 2. [+8686, -277] Why did they need to change the members when they were doing well... 3. [+6048, -58] I hope to see them on other shows. I hope the best for them. 4. [+5156, -45] I'll miss you, G6 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 5. [+4153, -311] I won't watch it if they cast another six Western members 6. [+2282, -38] Everything aside, I'm surprised that Julian is leaving when he was basically carrying the show with Enes. He brightened up the atmosphere, hyped others up, and sacrificed himself for the show. 7. [+2140, -26] They're cutting the members that don't have a company or not under JTBC. And yet they say "we're family, we're not leaving" with a caption. I don't understand this. The next episode will be serio...

[Abnormal Summit Ep.51] 'world peace', guest Jin Joong Kwon, goodbye preview

Article : 'Abnormal Summit' Tyler vs Zhang Yuan, discussion on the relationship between USA and China Source: Xports News via Naver 1. [+7038, -67] Tyler's language skills amaze me 2. [+5633, -584] Why is Takuya always staying silent when they're discussing stuff like this... And why is Zhang Yuan making a rude face when they're discussing? His obvious facial expression made me embarrassed. He should learn proper manners for discussions. 3. [+4806, -185] Japanese colonialism was the most important thing and yet they didn't talk about it 4. [+4628, -605] I guess his company is indeed powerful. His Korean is the worst among them but he doesn't withdraw from a discussion show, how stubborn. 5. [+3975, -551] Zhang Yuan's expressions are seriously poor due to his poor Korean. Or is he not thinking? I changed the channel because it was embarrassing to watch. 6. [+1907, -19] Ilya's stories on Russia are so interesting, don't take him out ㅠㅠ 7. [+1802, -...

How will the withdrawals affect Abnormal Summit? + Julian & Blair's SNS

Article : Sudden change of 'Abnormal Summit', will they get their 'best variety show' title back Source: Xports News via Nate 1. [+809, -26] Ilya contributed a lot to the discussions and he was interesting. I don't understand why he's leaving. 2. [+734, -23] They're screwed... Why is the PD taking Julian and Ilya out ㅋㅋ And she deleted her Instagram account because she got scared ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 3. [+685, -28] Members' withdrawals are so random... The five members are all good and likable ㅠㅠ I like all members, I'm sad how a lot of them are leaving... I honestly think Sam should leave the show instead ㅠㅠ He was funny in early episodes but now he says things that are completely unrelated to the discussion and he never contributed in the late news segment. 4. [+88, -5] The MCs need to stop with their "dae~~jun". It's boring and it's embarrassing to see the foreigners laughing forcibly. I used to watch this show even if I was tired but at some po...

I thought withdrawal rumors were not true.... - Why do you have to take Julian and Robin out ㅠㅠ - So it wasn't a rumor??? - Source: Nate 1. [+207, -7] Abnormal Summit staff is really so-so... They don't even realize their own mistake and randomly change the members... Why are they taking out new members? 2. [+207, -14] Shouldn't Sam leave the show? I've never seen him saying anything important when they're having discussions. 3. [+191, -3] Julian and Ilya can't leave!! ㅠㅠ 4. [+64, -0] Why Ilya though? He had good opinions and was interesting because he was different from the Western members... Is it personal issues? Let's add a member from Sou...
