She pleads: “Please report that video (‘중고대학생’) on PPKKa’s YouTube channel. Please report and remove her YouTube channel. Show solidarity so that Cat can stay safe. I sincerely urge you to cooperate.”
“Women’s salaries are really low. They are much lower than you college students would imagine… You may not notice it just by looking at the annual salary, but the unreasonable salary system combined with the horrible practice of overtime work is undeniable. My friend, an otaku who works in the entertainment industry, had to work overtime the same day she signed her contract. In the entertainment industry, working overtime on weekends is a given if a superior requires it. It is much better to find a job with a good work-life balance, receive a stable salary, and use that money to pursue your hobbies😭.”
“Even in the K-pop industry, you can see the wage gap between men and women. South Korea ranks first in gender pay inequality, with a staggering 30% gap.”
