At that age, I'd probably shrug it off. I don't know what kind of influence this concert would have on the younger kids either. I think it's because we're all too American. xDDD Either way, I guess it's just the culture in Korea. I don't think anyone should be arrested for it though. I doubt that'll happen.

I hope he ends up okay, my thoughts are with him. I think that the government and everybody is kind of overreacting though, I mean, I watched both of the videos and neither of them seemed that bad. He was on Amy for not long at all, and those "sexual moans" were nothing. The killing video was also not that bad, you can see like nothing. I really think they're overreacting and I hope they realize that. Thought, I could be thinking that because I'm American and they show that kind of stuff on primetime television, so I'm desensitized. It could be a cultural thing. But those fans sure didn't sound like they didn't like it, if you can tell by the increased screaming. OH NO G-DRAGON!! I hope he ends up okay, my thoughts are with him.

I heard about this a bit. I don't know what to say. In the US, it would be the top story at TMZ for awhile and then people wouldn't really care, but it's Korea and they have stricter censorship laws. I would say that maybe it's just an artist growing up and trying to mature his look and style to attract a more mature audience, but the fact remains that a lot of his current fans are still pre-teens. You could say it's his freedom as an artist, but the whole point of being a commercial artist is making the audience happy so they'll buy more stuff. And Korean fans are just plain scary if you don't make them happy... Though, Korea is not as conservative as they like to think they are... There are still dirty movies on TV at night, red light districts and love motels on every corner... But that's another argument. So, I'm up in the air. I think it's a bit of an overreaction bringing in jail time, but then again, I'm not Korean and have only lived here for about two years so I can't completely understand it from a cultural perspective.
