Chapter 249 - A war of words begins again! (2/2)

“It’s Lee Parkwoo!”

“Lee Parkwoo, I love you!”

“What program are you commenting about?”

“’Zhang Ye’s Talk Show’? What rubbish program is that? I’ve never watched it!”

“Support Lee Parkwoo. These domestic programs only know how to misrepresent and falsify! Our Lee Parkwoo is still the most charming! Never engaging in unscrupulous acts!”

When Lee Parkwoo spoke, the replies were countless!

But Zhang Ye’s peers were not impressed! Of these peers, some of them were Zhang Ye’s colleagues with a competing relations.h.i.+p. Some of them did not like Zhang Ye much either. But they were all countrymen, while he was a Korean! You are leading a bunch of our crazy Chinese fans to insult our profession?

A female WebTV host, who was ranked 4th in the industry, replied to Lee Parkwoo: “You speak like you understand our work. You might have been on many programs before, but it’s only as a guest. Have you even done hosting before? You don’t even know the basic editing process, so why are you commenting? The industry has already reached a consensus that the first episode of ‘Zhang Ye’s Talk Show’ was definitely done off-script. As for you saying that he refers to the script mid-way through and it was post-edited out? To say that means you are an amatuer! Do you think the live audience members are fools? If this was really the case, then the truth would never have been kept secret! And from the program’s effects, the cut scenes were definitely all continuous!”

At the same time, other industry insiders also reb.u.t.ted!

Lee Parkwoo only responded with a word, “Childish.”

Even more unaccepting of the post were the domestic netizens. This included Zhang Ye’s fans, but even more of them were nationalistic youths! Many of these youths did not even know who Zhang Ye was, but seeing a Korean celebrity who wasn’t even from the hosting industry criticizing their country’s program and host, they began scolding!

“Why are you acting all high and mighty!?”

“You don’t know a fart! Don’t show off to us!”

“Go back to Korea!”

“You’re even accusing our Teacher Zhang Ye of faking it? I think you the one who’s faking it instead! You are f**king fake from your face to your legs!”

“Are you sure you were scolding Teacher Zhang Ye just now? I have a strong premonition that you guys are gonna be in for a bad time. Hahaha! Teacher Zhang is no pushover! You guys can offend anyone but him!”

But the opposing camp also fought back. It wasn’t Lee Parkwoo; he did not even say a word. It was his brainless Chinese fans who came rus.h.i.+ng forward for him!

“Who are you scolding!”

“d.a.m.n! You dare to scold our Lee Parkwoo? Are you looking for death!”

“What Zhang Ye! What talk show! It’s all rubbis.h.!.+”

“If Lee Parkwoo says that Zhang Ye was faking it, then he must be faking it!”

“Ask that whoever Zhang Ye to scram! Don’t deceive the audience anymore!”

Coincidentally, Zhang Ye, who was just watching the news, had received a call from a leader who was informing him about some matters. After hanging up, he conveniently browsed through Weibo and saw this mess of infighting.

Me?

Faking it?

Deceiving the audience?

Zhang Ye laughed. But he did not reply to anything. He only noted Lee Parkwoo’s name, which he went online to research on his news in Korea.

“A person from Korea claims: Chinese characters and the printing press were invented by them!”

“The Greats from the past have Korean origins? Korea comes up with audacious claims again! ”

“The officials of Korea have released a press statement. They will be applying for the World Cultural Heritage on traditional Chinese medicine. This author would like to ask… What does traditional Chinese medicine have anything to do with you all?”

News articles were found, which could have been published from long ago or from recent times.

Zhang Ye realised that this world and his previous world were alike. The Koreans would make claims to certain achievements? It was exactly the same as his previous world? There was even a news article which made Zhang Ye very angry. It had existed in this world, too — the Jiangling Dragon Boat Festival was declared by UNESCO as an “Intangible Cultural Heritage Property of Mankind” — a simmering World Heritage nomination of the Sino-Korean Dragon Boat Festival ended in victory for Korea!

Looking at these pieces of news…..

Looking at the Weibo’s mentions regarding him, Lee Parkwoo’s brainless fans and some Korean undergraduates in China scolding him……

Zhang Ye focused his mind. He still had not thought of what to talk about for this episode, but now he had found his topic. He speedily thought and planned his joke segments in his head and sorted out the order of presentation before committing it to memory. He double-checked everything, so that the episode’s presentation would not go wrong!

Let’s talk about Korea this episode!

It was impossible for such a wonderful country to not appear on a domestic talk show!
