The area that's becoming Islam Town


Local residents are protesting against the construction of a mosque near Daehyeon-dong, Daegu, where Kyungbook University is located. They are even creating a campaign that opposes religious activities that take place in the residential area. Most muslim residents here come from Pakistan, Indonesia, and Nigeria. There are over 80 of them, they are International students who are taking Master and Doctorate degree in Kyungbook University. 

September last year, four residential areas in Daehyeon-ro granted the permission to construct mosque, which falls into the 2nd category of neighborhood living facilities. The mosque was about 264㎡, it is originally a Korean-traditional house. On November 2014, 5 foreigners purchased buildings and performed religious activities in the back yard. On September last year, 6 foreigners purchased buildings and constructed a three stories mosque. 

Local residents are fiercely protesting against the construction of the mosque, they claim to suffer from inconvenience due to the religious activities that take place. A resident explain, 'It is very noisy because people come in and out several times a day. They also make foods during the festival period and the smell is very disturbing. When they destroy the house, I thought they were going to sell it. It is very absurd to know that they're building a mosque'.

As the number of muslim International students increases, the area slowly becoming 'Islam Town'. The owner of the building next to the mosque claims, 'This area is now rumored as a Muslim residence. Now I can't rent out (rooms) unless if it's to Muslim. As the number of the Muslim residents increase, I worry I wouldn't be able to sell my building at this point"

-Muslims are not harming us in any way, why are they acting that way?

-The discrimination in our country is seriously no jokeㅋㅋㅋ The Muslim residents literally did nothing and yet they're hating on themㅋㅋㅋ

-Ah! South Korea... The country where discrimination comes in naturally and normalized...

-They perform religious activities a few times in a day, and it's really noisy when they do thatㅠㅠㅠ

-The fact that you guys are treating them as if they were criminals can also be considered as racial discrimination too...

-I don't know much about the religion but I think I understand what it means when people say 'Your head is full of shit'... If you know nothing about them, just shut up and learn more...

-They're noisy and loud?? Churches are way noisier...

-Judging from the article, I don't see anything wrong with them... They purchased the building, anyway. It's not like they committed crime or anything...

-I think it's fine, as long as they're not forcing their Muslim way...? on Korean. I think the local residents should tolerate and understand them when they're having festivals or performing religious activities...

-Guys, learn more about Muslim and their religions before you leave comments here...

-Why are you guys normalizing racial discrimination...?

-I've worked with a South East Asian before, they go pray at some times of the days and they also fast at some period of times. Other than that, they're just like us...

-I'm scared...

-Why are you selling buildings to foreigners...

-We should accept all cultures and race equally. There's nothing we can do, anyway. It's not like we can kick them out.

 He has always been thin, but he lost 7kg when he played Go Jiseok in Catch The Ghost. He was really really thin... Honestly, I really liked how he looked back thenㅠㅠ Of course, I still like him even now













-He was really thin here... Look at his neck...

-He lost so much weight because he kept running aroundㅠㅠ
 ㄴI agree... There was a lot of running scenes in the dramaㅠㅠㅠ

-Whoa... He looks like an idol at this time...

-He's so handsome...

Nana gains hate for her long speech in an award ceremony

 

No one knows when will (I) ever get to win this precious award again. I just wanted to fully deliver how grateful I am. Do people want to hear simple and cool acceptance speech? I'm not that good with words. I can't believe I have to watch the time when I'm delivering my gratitude as I receive this great award on such a great day. It feels very strange. I hope more people will be able to congratulate somebody else's happiness. 

This is what Nana posted on her Instagram after she received hate for her long acceptance speech

Let's take a look at how long she did her speech...

Nana: 5 mins 20 sec
Lee Choohee: 3 mins 50 sec
Oh Daehwan, Lee Hanwi: 3 mins 20 sec
Kang Euntak: 3 mins
Lee Sangyeob (Excellence award), Cheon Hojin: 2 mins 40 sec
Kim Yooseok: 2 mins 30 sec
Lee Sangyi, Ye Jiwon, Oh Yoona: 2 mins 20 sec
Jung Boseok: 2 mins 10 sec
Jin Gijoo, Park Hana: 1 min 50 sec
Shin Yeeun, Son Sook, Lee Yoo Young, Lee Shinyoung, Park Sunghoon, Lee Minjung: 1 min 40 sec
Moon Woojin, Lee Sangyeob (Popularity award) Lee Jangwoo, Lee Chaeyoung, Lee Jaewook: 1 min 30 sec
Seo Jihoon, Kim Youngdae, Kim Sunyoung, Lee Jungeun, Jo Yeojung: 1 min 10 sex
Bona: 1 min
Lee Gayeon, Ahn Gil-kang: 50 sec
Jo Boa: 40 sec
Park Inhwan: 30 sec

She shared the award along with Jo Yeojung. Jo Yeojung only stood beside her, waited for her to finish, and only got to deliver her acceptance speech for 1 min
People are talking about how Jo Yeojung made her speech very simple because Nana's speech was too long...


-It was very insensitive of her, but I don't think it deserves this much hate...

-That is very selfish of her...

-I thought so when I watched the award ceremony... It's not like she won the award by herself, she shared the award with Jo Yeojung, who is a senior to her and yet she made her wait for so long. I feel so embarrassed just by watching it...

-That was very insensitive of her... Well, it's clearly not a good thing to do...

-But did she really deserve all this hate just for that??

-She had a lot to say... Why are you hating on people for the smallest things...??

-I think they should've broadcasted for a little bit longer... Is it a sin for the winner to deliver how grateful she is...?

-The problem is not about how long she did her speech. She shared the award with Jo Yeojung, who is a senior to her. The show was live-broadcasted, therefore they have limited duration for each segments. She did her speech for so long, the MC tried to remind her, but she still talked for another 1 min and 30 sec. There was somebody who clearly harmed by what she did, she's the wrong one here. It's not like she's a rookie who hasn't been in the industry for so long, I don't understand why she still doesn't get it...

-Her attitude in that Instagram post is really shocking...

-Oh Gosh... She could just post the things she didn't get to say on her Instagram, right...

-Just like how the speech is precious to you, it is also very precious to the other person you shared the awards with...

A picture of Jennie's recent whereabouts in 2021 that made netizens worry if she gained weight

 On January 2nd, Jennie uploaded this picture with caption 'Happy New Year<3'

Jennie starts to get unexpected reactions because she looks chubbier in that picture than in any other pictures. Some netizens address, 'Is this Jennie's version of Crayon Shinchan?', 'Jennie is gaining some fat on her cheeks??','How could she still look adorable despite her chubby cheeks...', 'She still looks pretty even when she doesn't take care of herself', 'I think she gained weight, but she looks cute', etc. 

instiz

-Just mind the food that you shove down your own f*cking mouth...

-They're worrying about the most useless thing in this world...

-She just looks adorable to me, though?

-No, netizens are not making a big deal out of her weight. Netizens are just talking about how adorable she is because of her chubby cheeks. The title is very click-bait...

-Jennie has always had chubby cheeks, though...?

-I checked her Instagram and people are literally calling her cute, what's wrong with this article?

-Oh God... I feel stressful even though I'm not Jennie...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-She said it herself that she gets bloated very easily. I can't imagine how stressful it must be for her to see this kind of articleㅠㅠ

-Why are you judging somebody else's body?? So what if Jennie gained weight or not? It's none of your business...

-Just mind the fat you have in your own body, get a life...

-How about using the time you use to talk about somebody else's body to take care of your own body instead? Sounds like a great idea, huh?

-No one said anything about Jennie gaining weight... The f*ck is wrong with this reporter?

-To be honest, I think he's the most handsome man I have ever seenㅋㅋㅋ He really does look like someone who just jumped straight out from Manhwa

-I mean... He's Cha Eunwoo...

-My dad once saw him on the TV and he went, 'Why is this guy so handsome?'ㅋㅋㅋ It was my first time hearing my dad calling a celebrity handsome...
