• He highlighted the issue of racism, which was prevalent in South Korea, in an interview and said that the institutions in the country do not try to stop it from happening. He said,
  

  South Korea is a racist country, but unlike any other racist countries such as the USA, Australia, etc, South Korea`s racism, just like in Poland, is not within the minority of the population but within the exact institutions that should be condoning it, such as the governments and local business. South Korea lacks basic anti-discrimination laws and turns a blind eye to it due to being a minority`s problem in the country. Just like misogyny, racism is rampant in the country. That being said, I can tell you one thing for sure, I will make it, but while still staying true to myself and by fighting for what I believe is right, even if that means being hated by most of the world’s population.”

It was very hard from him to get a job in South Korea and he felt very discriminated against his Western looks.” ^[2]Outlook
