The Chinese Internet space was hot on the 13th day due to the birthday Gift problem of EXO member and actor D.O. D.O. joined the Army last July and is currently serving in the military. On January 12, he celebrated his 28th birthday in Korea.
According to a report on Thursday by China's Global Network (), some D.O. fan clubs in China have prepared birthday Gifts. “In Korea, when a man goes to Army, Friend prepares a Gift sent by a woman Friend to a bear courier (a Friend who is a woman Friend) on his birthday or anniversary. We also sent a "Gomshin courier" to D.O. to cheer him up. "
“D.O. has announced that it will not accept expensive birthdays in 2016, so we send a simple winter necessity,” he said. “We prepared a Gift for Vasselin, statue ointment, bruise ointment, and a drink for the chief of the articles of association.”
He also expressed difficulties in preparing for the birthday Gift. “The preparations for the items sent to Amy were very cumbersome because of strict regulations, and I had to fight time because I was going to spend it sooner than my birthday,” he said. “I wish you a happy 28th birthday of the D.O. with all due respect,” he added.
But there are two major problems that some China netizens have antagonized. One is that they don’t just send birthday Gifts to D.O.s, but they send 50 winter supplies together for the Legend of the Patriots, who serve with help.The other was some “response messages” they send with Gift. The phrase “Cho Kuk calls the brunt,” was written down, and the unit D.O. was also called the “Tiger company” as a water mechanized infantry division, a cheering slogan that was based on this.
This D.O. Some fans commented on the birthday Gift of the fan club, such as "I am sure you are healthy" and "I am curious about the response of the unit motive", but gradually began to flood the criticism.
“My God, some of the China fan behavior in D.O. is amazing, such as losing the judgment of China netizens,” said one China netizen. Another netizen wrote, "It is good to support individuals, but it does not make sense to support the Korean Army." "Have you ever sent a Gift to a Chinese soldier who protects the country? Korea is peeking at China every day, and you sent them Gift to send support for THAAD (High Altitude Area Defense, THAAD). "
But this is a drug overdose. “My brothers, who are suffering from hardships and protecting the country, are sending supplies to the Korea Army, so what happened to their heads after the star,” he said, finally criticizing that “China is the country’s country that provides supplies to the Korea Army.”
As voices rose demanding an apology, D.O. fans who sent birthday Gifts to D.O.s where they claimed to be the official D.O. fan club in China were the whole D.O.s in China. They said that they did not represent the position of the fan club. "The D.O. China fan club is forever putting China in its first position," he said. “We will donate 10,000 yuan worth of goods to China’s charity, which is twice the price of Gift sent to Korea by fans,” he said.
The D.O. birthday Gift debate raises the prospect that the lifting of the Korean Wave (Korean Wave ban) in China will not be easy. Although there are many Korean Wave fans in China, there are not many eyes that look at it.
