Why Koreans fell for her fake tears

To the surprise of many international K-pop fans, a good chunk of the Korean public believed New Jeans creator Min Hee-jin told the truth about the war with HYBE at her hysterical press conference. Her supporters say foreigners, who thought she was lying, simply don't understand Korean culture.

Here are the top reasons why an unwashed, casually-dressed CEO with an incoherent potty mouth was able to win over the Korean public with wild accusations. And here's why I still think she's lying. Yes, the Korean public was correct to assess her behavior as 'honest'. But did they double check whether the 'truthful sounding' package actually contained the TRUTH?
