After the scandal, DHC Korea blocked the comment function of SNS.

But there is no official apology or explanation, and condemnation is growing.

Professor Seo Kyung-deok, known as a public relations expert in Korea, suggested on the SNS that DHC Chairman Yoshida Yoshiaki has long been notorious for being a right-winger and should move beyond boycott.

He also stressed that this should be an opportunity to inform Japan of the distortions of Japanese history.

Domestic drugstore companies have also stopped selling DHC products. Industry leader Olive Young has relocated its merchandise, and other companies have either removed products from stores or placed new orders.

Actor Jung Yu-mi, a DHC Korea model, announced that he would stop the DHC model activities and even asked to withdraw his portrait rights.

DHC Korea announced that it will announce its official position today (13th) after consulting with the Japanese headquarters.

In the midst of this, the DHC television YouTube channel, the source of the ripples, continued to make claims of far-rights by appearing in Liberal Democratic Party Shigeharu Aoyama, known as right-wing politician.
