there was apparently a booth selling Blue Archive fan merch at “Illustar Fest” that was so egregiously pedophilic that someone called the police in to take a look at it. Be careful if you click that link because some people have posted (censored) images of the event that are disturbing, and I saw in some of the QRTs someone was posting self harm images or something. If I need to add any other tw tags lmk
this is particularly disgusting so I’ll try to add all the info under a cut
some replies to the above post referencing some of the disturbing materials present:
the R18 doujinshi were sold under “children’s lunch set” and the fact that it was “Children’s Day” was specifically referenced.
here is a tip someone sent to a news source that contains some small censored images. the references in the comments of the Illustar Fest post regarding putting money in girls genitals are about the first image that was sent in these texts. In another post it was shown that there was a place to insert money in that cardboard cutout. Hopefully I don’t have to explain more. If you want to see it (still censored mercifully) people have posted it in the replies to the Illustar post:
a man had this card bragging about how many times he was rejected when trying to manufacture a hand sanitizer where it looked as if the spray was coming out of a girl’s genitals
post referencing the hand sanitizer being at the event
There are replies to the Illustar post that show more images like this one, I don’t really want to post these here but they’re illustrations of very young girls naked and one of them has a booth set up where it looks like these girls are on their hands and knees fellating the man sitting there.
information about this has been all over the place and nothing in English so I’m trying to play catch up here. There are some preliminary articles on what happened here-
there’s like over a thousand comments now on that article alone.
twitter thread with a lot of information (and censored images) from twitter user 4dd_name
twitter thread with more information and images, some of which are uncensored, from user squareissleepin
If I find any more information I’ll update this post.
gacha game Astra Knights of Veda AKA Dragon Blaze 2 (and aka to google translate “become a star”) again has edited every piece of artwork that their delicate flower male fanbase couldn’t handle due to seeing any hand shape resembling 🤏. Honestly more than anything I find their second paragraph disturbing and worrying. This is also the game posted about earlier that is being invested in and overseen by Hybe.
The images being changed, directly from the post, are as follows:
direct article link regarding shift-up, stellar blade developer, removing a woman’s work from their gacha game Destiny Child for defending feminism
I’ll make this its own post (original here) because I’ve seen people believing this didn’t happen, or there was some twitter thread that was deleted so it means it didn’t happen. this is a link to a direct Korean news source regarding what happened:
article regarding SHIFT-UP removing an artist’s work from their gacha game “Destiny Child” after she said there shouldn’t be a problem being a feminist and voiced support for the VA, Kim Jayeon, that Nexon fired for taking a photo of herself wearing a shirt that said “Girls Do Not Need A Prince”. The shirt was part of a fundraiser to help victims of domestic violence (see the npr article linked below) , the rates of which are especially high for women living in South Korea. You can note here that literally anything vaguely feminist is met with “are you megal?” (referring to the defunct website megalia) and it doesn’t even matter how she responds. This woman made some simple statements and is smeared as some feminist terrorist. tbh sometimes it’s an uphill battle trying to explain to anyone, especially on the western internet, that these women aren’t making some evil dogwhistle to the feminist illuminati when they make basic feminist statements. I’ve gotten called “terf/terf sympathizer” (???) for trying to explain that the artist Vellmori was being smeared on the western web with the term “terf” as a targeted campaign by Korean incels who know that term puts a target on your back and nothing else about it. I am of course not saying megalia was a totally unproblematic site with no ideological problems but none of these women being attacked and fired are saying anything like “yeah the homophobia was great” they’re literally advocating for basic women’s rights. I’m also not saying “basic” in a condescending way, on the contrary I think these women are brave for speaking out and have created complex feminist ideologies and movements. “Basic” and “simple” are meant to show the absurdity in the reaction (extreme male anger, firing, censorship, etc) in relation to the original statement (molka is bad, it’s fine to be a feminist, etc).
this is an article in English regarding the VA who wore the shirt:
Whatever your thoughts on megalia the fundraiser wasn’t even made by the main site as you can read in the NPR article. Regardless of your opinion regarding how this was handled it was a misogynistic act of feminist ideological verification.
I hope no one is falling for the same horseshit Korean misogynist men try to barf up when they want “logical” westerners to be on their side regarding 🤏. The thing that always strikes me when they fear-monger about the defunct megalia website is this: if these women writing “cruel” things online and engaging in mirroring techniques is enough to brand them man-haters and have them become some eternal boogeywomen, why aren’t the men stabbing, killing, raping, witch-hunting, sexually trafficking and beating women - because they are women - branded as extreme women-haters in turn? Surely these targeted attacks that have happened, and continue to happen frequently, are enough to label these men extremist misogynists whose actions and texts are dangerous to Korean society? But instead, as we have seen recently, their deranged misogynist thoughts are carefully listened to and their delusions are catered to by major companies.
Secondly, these guys like to portray the women they go after as having dangerous opinions by saying, oh the pinched fingers means they’re megal and therefore it’s a secret signal for all these “hateful” thoughts. However the “radical, hateful thoughts” the men trawl through these women’s social medias to find have always ended up being basic women’s rights: the right to have an abortion, being against sex trafficking, being against molka, condemning misogynist hiring practices, etc. These extremely basic tenets of feminism are what these men consider radical and dangerous to society. When they try to pull the wool over your eyes by saying “feminism is different in korea it’s extreme and evil” THESE are the things they mean. Saying “it’s a megal symbol for crazy female supremacy” is a smokescreen for misogynist men to punish women who want basic human rights.
The smaller group of women engaging in 4B there try to live their lives in a female-centered way, away from men. These are the women that misogynist men revile so much that simply existing as a woman with short hair is enough for them to violently attack you with a knife. So how does this make sense? The women branded as evil misandrists live their lives avoiding men and uplifting other women. The men who hate women do the complete opposite: they go out of their way to physically and sexually assault women and get them fired from their jobs. The misogynists in that group who witch hunt women are not labeled extremists, but rather catered to by companies like Nexon. Don’t fall for their shit.
