Why Korea Destroys Its Own Stars: The Witch Hunt

I saw their screams. But I never wrote about them.

As a former magazine editor in Korea, I witnessed the fragile reality behind the glamorous image of K-Pop idols and actors. Today, I'm breaking my silence to talk about the madness that destroys them.

Recently, top Korean actor Cho Jin-woong (famous for the K-Drama 《Signal》) disappeared from the public eye overnight. He admitted to a past mistake and quit everything. But was it really just about his mistake? Or was it a "Game of Dice" rigged by the media and political polarization?

In this video, we dive deep into:
The fall of actor Cho Jin-woong and the "Witch Hunt" culture in Korea.
The dangerous rise of "Private Justice" and digital lynching.
The role of controversial media outlet 《Dispatch》.
Why Korean celebrities are held to higher moral standards than politicians.
The heartbreaking truth about why idols and actors are breaking down.

This is a story about the cost of fame in a society driven by madness.
