Bruh that's the Defense Ministry lmaooo
I watched the full video and she was literally throwing hands with the reporter lol
The reporter was the one starting shit
The reporter was starting drama with her?? I watched the full video too and I can see how someone might react that way
Yeah that reporter always starts drama
But like, even if you're speaking on behalf of someone else, isn't it crazy that you literally know NOTHING?
Well she doesn't have authority so that's what happens lol. The 'I don't know' and 'I haven't verified' stuff is just an excuse because headquarters didn't confirm the official response yet
Why did she even show up lmaooo
She showed up exactly as she is lol typical government official behavior
This came out like a week ago, so NOW you're answering? lmao
If you watch the original, the reporter's tone is confrontational, so there are comments asking the reporter to show their face too. But the reactions here are totally different
When you see the full version you can't say that kind of stuff. The reporter had asked about this before but she kept saying she'd verify the facts and never gave an answer
But I remember she already pushed back the answer once before and then came back with this garbage response
From the video you can tell she answered with that typical catty attitude. I'd be pissed if I was the reporter too
Can't find videos from any day except June 1st, so I'm not sure when the question was asked. The answer apparently came on the 18th saying the investigation was ongoing
this is going to be a meme template by tomorrow i'm calling it now 💯
What are these people saying 'stop' for lmao
Those are probably communist spies or something lmaooo
government officials really think they can control their image online and then THIS happens 😭
There was that jaywalking accident in Hongdae where people were cursing up a storm saying the cops were about to kill someone, but then an insurance company employee's explanation came out and all those people disappeared. Stuff like that isn't quite the same but this place has so many dumbasses that misinformation spreads way too easily. This post was already up days ago—wouldn't it make sense for the spokesperson to verify the facts and post the answer instead? Why are we seeing the old stuff again?
Man I wish I could just get paid and not know anything
When the common folk speak to the nobility, they must know their place!
What she says becomes the official Defense Ministry position, she's just a speaker, so I think she's doing her job right
A Defense Ministry spokesperson gets called out by some random reporter and now the reporter's in the wrong??? lmao Yeah, I can tell what your standards are.
The regular briefing is only supposed to cover pre-approved topics. A spokesperson isn't supposed to answer everything.
LMAOOO not the defense ministry getting caught slipping 💀 this is the funniest thing i've seen all week
wait what did they even say?? i'm out of the loop but the title has me dying
ngl this is why you don't give people with zero media training a microphone
i'm sorry but the way they handled that follow-up question was absolutely unhinged, had me cracking up
