Stop Terrible Journalism in Allkpop and Koreaboo

The Issue

Both Allkpop and Koreaboo are huge korean news websites for english speakers, and they’re both known for their misleading or drama causing and clickbait articles. They make titles such as “___ member claims he hates his other members” when in reality it was “___ member had fought with other members predebut”. They’re also known for being first to write  articles defaming groups or artists for clicks, even if they’re given the incorrect information. They’re also both known for making insensitive articles not respecting idols, their families, or the fans of idols that had sadly passed away. This has effected a lot of idols and fandoms since both Allkpop and Koreaboo have huge followings, their false or clickbait articles are known for stirring up unneeded controversys. 

What I ask for in this petition is that all kpop fandoms can come together to bring these two sites down or at least stop them from writing more unnecessary articles and to protect all our idols. 

1) Stop with the clickbait articles. 

2) Stop with the bais of certain groups or idols in articles or in the journalists. 

3) Stop trying to gain through fanwars

4) Have proper source and evidence before putting out articles that could cause unnecessary controversys. 

5) Stop with the misleading photos on your articles.
