5 Brazilian girls'll travel to South korea to meet their crushes in a new reality TV show soon.To me, it highlights how strong the global influence of K-pop and Korean pop culture has become.
I also hope shows like this help weaken some of the false stereotypes about Korean men and false statistics that have been pushed for years by a small but loud group of haters.
It was also nice to see that one of the five Brazilian women is of Korean descent!👍

This strange fetishization of my ethnicity really bothers me.
Cringe
lol
Korean male here, honestly there is nothing we can see in TV shows.
Honestly, anyone can date and have a boyfriend/girlfriend. It’s nothing special. My guess is this will make good drama, but if they really wanted to show what it’s like being in a cross-cultural relationship, documenting the lives of married couples and families would be much more real.
Reality TV is one of the dumbest things to have ever happened.
This seems really weird!
People in here are not gonna like this lol.
WTF…It’s strange.
>false stereotypes about Korean men and false statistics
Like what

Its shows like this that perpetuate myths and false stereotypes. If you think that this show will be representative of “reality” you are gravely mistaken.
The number of upvotes is exploding. Was it shared on Twitter?? What’s that??
Holy fuck the comments in here make me want to subject myself to working at a Korean chaebol company
No wonder K-culture mostly resonates with females.
I’m beginning to think the males in all those countries just hate Korea.
My question is… Can This Love Be Translated?
I know so many Brazilian friends who are happy to watch this show, but I find it so cringeworthy.
Because they think these men are from K- drama.
It should replace it to, my rich Korean boyfriend instead haha
That is an odd idea for a show but I love the culture crossover.
