The reunion the South Korean group BLACKPINK has with the King of the United Kingdom, King Charles III, was important worldwide due to the great honor the girls receive, and many media outlets took advantage of this to make reports about the K-Pop industry.

The Daily Mail was not different, as they made a recent article for which they got under fire due to making a ‘disrespectful’ headline for BLACKPINK, where they were criticized for a bad choice of words and the use of the girlgroup name for such deep topics in the genre.

In an X social network post, the media gave a controversial introduction to the news, saying, “You’d probably never heard of Korean K-Pop sensations BLACKPINK before the King honored them. But here we reveal how starvation diets, daily weigh-ins, and huge pressure to have plastic surgery have left a dark spectre behind the world’s biggest girl band“.

Although the writer wanted to share a deep perspective on K-Pop, saying “abuse, harassment, and exploitation are common in this genre; from a young age, they are subjected to grueling training sessions“, BLACKPINK fans were not happy with that as they showed a negative side of the sector without a wide investigation.
