It is a real-time e-news that looks at the news that has become a hot topic on the Internet overnight.
Broadcaster Jae-seok Yoo said of his convictions that he was 'angry' about the recent decision to bias the short track track at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
I've seen a lot of articles stating that the Chinese state-run media directly criticized it.
The Chinese state-run Global Times published an article on the 22nd with the title, 'Korean celebrities should not pour oil on the fire, but help alleviate the negative feelings between China and Korea'.
The media mentioned earlier that Yoo Jae-suk said 'I was so angry' about the disqualification of Korean athletes during the Olympic short track race in an entertainment program, and said, 'As an influential entertainer, Yoo Jae-suk is likely to intensify the conflict between the people of the two countries. I shouldn't have said anything I could have said."
Domestic netizens reacted absurdly to this news, saying, 'It was China that lit the fire, and it was China that poured oil'.

I've seen many articles about the so-called soju run phenomenon, in which consumers purchase soju in bulk when the price of soju, the number one in the domestic industry, rises.
Hite Jinro, the No. 1 company in the industry, raised the soju shipment price by 7.9%.
At large marts, customers who wanted to purchase soju in bulk before the price increase flocked to the large mart, causing the liquor stand to become empty last weekend.
That is, up to 167 won per bottle.
However, at restaurants, it seems that the price will rise by around 500 to 1,000 won.
This is because rent and labor costs are usually added to the price of alcohol.
The extent of the increase varies slightly by region, but in the Gangnam area, the prevailing atmosphere is that the price of soju should be raised from 5,000 won to 6,000 won.
In the midst of this, Muhak and Hallasan soju also predicted price hikes next month.

Netizens were also interested in whether the deposit insurance limit of 50 million won could be raised for over 20 years.
Koh Seung-beom, chairman of the Financial Services Commission, said, 'there is a need to increase the limit of the deposit insurance system' at a meeting held at the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation yesterday.
The current protection limit is 50 million won per depositor, which has not changed since it was increased from 20 million won in 2001.
The Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation pays the depositor the amount within the protection limit if the financial institution is unable to return the deposit to the depositor due to business suspension or bankruptcy.
Kim Tae-hyeon, president of the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation, said, 'After a thorough review, we will come up with an improvement plan by August next year.'
