I think the tone of style is weird

It seems based on personal opinions and has little citations. I'm a south Korean, and I would like to help improve this article. Thanks! Jishiboka1 (talk) 03:04, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sections in this page lacks professionalism and has unsourced claims just sitting there with nobodt doing anything about it, and personally, I can't believe the issue with this person stating "comfort women" as "prostitution" is called freedom of speech. Did some Netto-uyoku or wapanese edit this article? Notendiesonmyplate (talk) 12:13, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, it's very basic and lacks nuance, like the statement that college is viewed as a means for social mobility in South Korea (as it is anywhere). It's clear that some of the writing is by someone who doesn't have native fluency in English. 66.152.106.102 (talk) 02:44, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
