'I love Trump! I love Elon Musk!' Korean pop star bursts into pro-America praise at LA concert



A Korean pop singer shocked fans with a speech about how much he loves American culture after a concert in Los Angeles.

The concert in question was held at Dignity Health Sports Park in L.A. and featured musicians from the Korean record label SM Entertainment. One of the featured acts was Super Junior, a massively popular boy band with over two million YouTube subscribers and two decades of history.

'I love Five Guys. I love In-N-Out. I love Trump!'

After the concert, one of Super Junior's members, Jeongsu Park (aka "Leeteuk"), started screaming into the microphone about his love for America.

"I love Five Guys. I love In-N-Out. I love Trump!" the 41-year-old yelled.

"I love Elon Musk! I love L.A.!" Park continued.

At this point, other unidentified band members started to join in and stated, "I love people!" and "I love Five Guys!"

A video of the event taken by a member of the audience made its rounds on social media — and the videographer was apparently not impressed by the comments.

"Why did his mic not get turned OFF," the caption wrote.

At the same time, an audience member can be heard in the video saying, "Shut them up!"

Still, Park persisted.

"I love Elon!" he added. "I love Trump!"

Multiple outlets have reported that the concert was full of jokes and comedy segments, but fans did not see the humor in the remarks and took the chance to bash the group online.

"Why are people even cheering for him," one fan asked.

"Idols aren't supposed to talk about politics for a reason," another viewer wrote.

The comments are easily juxtaposed with the recent sentiments from American rockers like Bruce Springsteen. At a show in England, Springsteen called the Trump administration "corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous."

The 75-year-old then urged his audience to "rise" against alleged authoritarianism in the United States.

"Bruce Springsteen dedicates portions of his concerts to spreading lies about the sitting president of the United States, Kelsea Ballerini uses her concerts to parade drag queens around and spread lies about bills that ban pornographic books from kids' libraries, and the internet has a problem with someone saying he loves the president?" political commentator Chrissy Clark told Blaze News.

"It must be exhausting to be a liberal. As conservatives, we've learned to separate the art from the artist," she added.

Park's influence on his genre cannot be denied; on his own, the singer has 4.1 million followers on X. The SM Entertainment YouTube channel has over 33 million subscribers and routinely garners millions of views for its music videos.

Fans also paid a steep price to see the Koreans in concert; according to Los Angeles Events, tickets ranged from $80 to $1,376, with an average price of $218.

Super Junior originally debuted with 12 members and is currently listed on the record label's website as having 10. It also has six spin-off bands.

'Transracial' spends $250K to look Korean, touts penis reduction​ plan. Asks 'Why do people get so offended?’



"Transracial influencer" Oli London, who was born white, male, and British, has already spent an estimated $250,000 on surgeries to "become Korean" and now has plans to undergo penis reduction surgery "to be 100 percent Korean."

"I don't want people to get offended by this, but in Korea, [the average] penis is like 3.5 inches, and I get trolled all the time. People say, 'Oh, you can't be Korean. You're not 100 percent Korean,' and I just want to be 100 percent Korean," London told Newsweek in January. "I would even have a penis reduction so I'm, like, the Korean average. That's how far I'm willing to go. I can have it done in Thailand, and it will cost between $6,000 and $8,000."

London, who says he identifies as Korean as well as non-binary and prefers the pronouns they/them or he/him, says he's gotten intense backlash from people on social media who accuse him of "cultural appropriation."

“Why do people get so offended?" he asked in an interview with GB News. "I’m just following my dreams.”

On a recent episode of "Louder with Crowder," Steven Crowder played a clip from one of London's unbelievably terrible music videos and suggested there might be a fair bit more offensiveness going on here than "cultural appropriation."

Report: North Korea publicly executes people caught watching K-pop, forces their families to look on



North Korea has publicly executed at least seven people in the past decade caught watching or distributing K-pop videos from South Korea, a human rights group said Wednesday as part of a new report investigating state-sanctioned killings under leader Kim Jong-un.

In the report, titled, “Mapping Killings Under Kim Jong-un,” the Seoul-based Transitional Justice Working Group claimed that North Korea's young leader has responded to international scrutiny over the country's human rights abuse record by clamping down on information leakage and selecting execution sites that are easier for his government to control.

But through analyses of satellite imagery and interviews with 683 North Korean escapees, the rights group said it was able to account for at least 23 public executions over the last 10 years, seven of which were carried out simply for engaging with South Korean pop culture entertainment — including songs, movies, and TV dramas.

The other public executions were reportedly for "drug-related crimes (5), prostitution (5), human trafficking (4), murder or attempted murder (3), and 'obscene acts' (3)," the group said.

The New York Times appeared to be the first U.S. outlet to report on the group's work. The paper previously reported that Kim Jong-un had called K-pop a "vicious cancer" that is corrupting young North Koreans’ “attire, hairstyles, speeches, behaviors." And that, if nothing was done, it would make North Korea “crumble like a damp wall.”

The Times said that a new law was enacted last December in North Korea aimed at stopping the flow of K-pop into the country from China. It calls for up to 15 years of labor camp sentencing for people who watch or possess the South Korean material. But for those who distribute the material, the punishment can be even stiffer and include the death penalty.

According to the rights group, the country likely continues to punish the distribution of such material by public execution, as well, in an effort to warn onlookers about the seriousness of the crime.

The group said that most of the executions took place in Hyesan, a northern city that borders China and is considered a major trade hub and entry point for K-pop smuggling. Officials in the city would mobilize the public to come to the execution site and look on as they killed the accused by firing squad.

"The families of those being executed were often forced to watch the execution,” the group reported. It added that officials often engaged in the inhumane treatment of the accused persons both prior to and after the execution.
