South Korea is in the midst of a brutal civil war, but it might not be the one you’re thinking of.
The South Korean gender war is like nothing else in the world, with so-called “male chauvinists“ and “radical feminists“ clashing online, on the streets, and at the ballot box.
In this two part series, we’ll be discussing the deep historical roots, but surprisingly modern origins, of the Korean gender war while contextualizing it all through the lens of almost unimaginably preposterous gacha game drama.
