It's honestly laughable when Palestine supporters come to Koreans asking us to support Palestine without even making the effort to look up the most basic history. 🇵🇸🇰🇵 Palestine has been allied with North Korea for about 70 years, so in Korea, if you support Palestine, people treat you like a North Korean spy. In Korea, "Palestine" doesn't make people think of Gaza. It makes them think of North Korea and China, and then communist spies. That's because Palestine is also very close to the Chinese Communist Party. So asking Koreans to support Palestine is the same as asking them to support North Korea, which means supporting the destruction of South Korea. When Koreans hear this, they feel that Palestine supporters don't have even the slightest consideration for Korea, and it only makes them hate Palestine even more. Koreans absolutely hate Palestine, and pro-Palestine rallies in Korea get a terrible reaction. That's why the people who hold them only open for a very short time, take some photos and videos, and spread them overseas. In fact, whenever a video of a pro-Palestine rally in Korea gets posted on social media, it's flooded with brutally harsh insults and comments like "Spies, get out of Korea!" That's why they can't promote it on Korean social media. On top of that, the protesters' accents and the way they dress make it obvious that they're paid Chinese part-timers. So they spread the rally videos and photos only overseas, where people can't easily tell the difference, and never promote them in Korea so that Koreans won't find out.
