His webtoon 'Bok Hak Wang' features a scene amongst a woman mortal intern grapheme Bong Ji Eun at her company's dinner outing. She cracks opened upwardly a clam amongst the narration, "It's non close how difficult you lot work, or your education, your credentials, effort... her cells themselves were wanting work." The scene in addition to then transitions to her getting the job. Readers interpreted the peachy of the clam to hateful that she had slept amongst a forty twelvemonth sometime senior from a previous episode who doubted her to state her job.

1. [+714, -229] He's had several controversies already from other misogynistic scandals to putting downward the disabled to fifty-fifty racism, in addition to notwithstanding he continued to crush himself onto TV in addition to drawing his webtoons. I saw the drawing of the clam earlier he replaced it amongst the crab leg in addition to it was disgusting. He actually crossed the line amongst that scene.

2. [+1,018, -611] I mean value people should last given the creative liberty to limited what they want. Just similar how at that topographic point are dramas amongst makjang trash inwards it... only don't sentry if you lot don't similar it. It's non fifty-fifty similar this is real, it's a webtoon.

3. [+733, -435] Manhwas, movies, in addition to novels all characteristic dissimilar issues that are fictional in addition to for the indicate of the plot. Why scrap close what's appropriate in addition to what isn't? Why can't a manhwa characteristic stories close prostitutes, gangsters, murderers, adulterers, betrayers, in addition to scammers? Please larn to differentiate fiction from reality. I honestly mean value the damned feminist organizations convey a lot to practice amongst Korea becoming similar this.

4. [+417, -223] So I estimate I can't enquire a adult woman to acquire swallow clams anymore, she'll sue me for sexual harassment

5. [+170, -27] I wonder if Kian himself knows that his webtoon encourages stigmas against local colleges, the disabled, in addition to women? I wonder if he realizes that he's drawing violence amongst these ideas?

6. [+143, -30] This isn't his rootage controversy. It's ridiculous... in addition to I don't similar how mainstream media has made him out to last similar some mortal who needs to last protected.

7. [+92, -10] Women are calling it out for beingness misogynistic thence why are men feeling the ask to scrap over it?

8. [+153, -75] But don't a lot of movies in addition to dramas characteristic plots similar this?

9. [+80, -10] We're trying to hash out misogyny hither in addition to expect at all the men barging inwards the comments maxim it's non misogyny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
