Fabienne, 'Korea-Fujeon malicious comments'Honest feelings'I'm fine with you, Korea  France, my country'('Fabien')



Fabien, a French broadcaster, expressed his honest feelings about 'bad comments'.

On the 6th, a video titled 「Fabien」 was released on the YouTube channel 'Shuttlecock's Empress Ahn Se-young's crazy on-site reaction'

On this day, Fabien watched the badminton Ahn Se-young play. In particular, he congratulated Korea on its first gold medal in badminton in 28 years, saying, `Congratulations, it was a great game.'



Afterwards, Fabien met with YouTuber Moon Joo, who is appearing on JTBC 'Tokpa One 25:00', and talked about the Paris Olympics. "I watched the Korean game, and there are many Koreans who cheer for it, but there are many foreigners who cheer for it the most. I watched the handball game, and it was so touching." It felt like we were cheering for each other. It felt so heartwarming," he said, explaining the atmosphere of the scene.

Fabien agreed that the atmosphere of the Olympics is so much fun. He is enjoying this Olympics because French athletes are doing well and Korean athletes are doing well," he added.



Fabien says, "What's interesting about me, Moon-joo living in Paris and French living in Korea, is that I've never seen that much of it in my 16 years in Korea, but it's almost every day at this Olympics."

Then "I was fine, but I received a lot of malicious comments."As a Frenchman who has lived in Korea for a long time, in fact, I like France to win, and Korea is not a second country, so I love Korea or France. The feeling is a little strange. "I don't know who to support, I don't feel a little sad, I'm not happy, I'm ambiguous because I don't know who to support or who wins anyway."

Meanwhile, Fabien was previously attacked with malicious comments when the Paris Olympics organizers' repeated mistakes caused the controversy over discrimination against Korea. When a ridiculous mistake occurred at the opening ceremony of the Olympics, calling South Korea North Korea, a lot of malicious comments poured out, and Fabien responded, "An absurd thing happened at the opening ceremony." When the South Korean team entered, they introduced South Korea to North Korea. At that time, I was not aware of it at all because it was being broadcast live on SBS, and I found out after the broadcast. I'm so dumbfounded and angry. It's really embarrassing that this is happening to a global sporting event called the Olympics."

In the meantime, "It was even more upsetting and disappointing because the Olympics were held in our country. When I went home, I saw that comments were being terrorized on Instagram and mail. It's something I'm used to. During the last Asian Cup in Qatar, comments were terrorized, and since this is the Olympics in France, I'm being blamed again. "But I'm glad there's no comment saying, 'Go back to your country' because it's in my hometown this time."
