    Funny thing is, that it’s not even popular in Korea, mostly popularized by American Tiktokers who can’t get a man, so they are coping.

      Well Americans are great at appropriating things from other cultures that they don't understand.../sarcasm.
      On a more serious note, South Korea has a lot of cultural influence these days, it's interesting to see.

    Maybe, the rejection of grammar rules is not really about challenging the norms but because the words are invented by foreign feminists who have no proper understanding of the language. They then taught it to their Korean disciples who then unquestioningly parroted the said terms. Like a cult.

      With the amount of incels floating around I doubt "plenty of fish in the sea" is a thing.

      @hishlev the males you call "incels" most likely want nothing to do with the state of modern women. Add the dangers of their emotional outbursts, the irrational behavior that is rampant amongst modern females and you will see males are abstaining not incels.

    I've encountered something similar in the German language, where my university profs will pressure students to use "gender-affirming language", which does weird things to german nouns. Learning the language is hard enough, but now how it's used is a signal for identity politics.

      Russian is all about gender affirmation in language structure. You change adjectives and verbs based on she, he, it, they, them.

    I was wondering why Koreans tend to be on the left. I thought with the DPRK on their doorstep and still being on the conservative side socially (although I know the younger generation are pushing gay stuff and casual sex in the dramas more lately).

    This makes sense. It is more marxist wordplay.
    The CCP did this with “simplified” Chinese and the American neomarxists did this with a whole bunch of words (including “neo-pronouns”).

    Isn't this "movement" ultimately self-destructive since it fractures societies and ultimately leads to the end of civilization? What impresses people to want to turn so negative toward their fellow men/women to do something that leads to our extinction?

    Language is dynamic. New words are being created all the time. That's what I like about language. You are not constrained to use words only in one way or according one or more rules. You can make up your own words and terms, and even your own idioms. Language changes to adapt to cultural changes, new inventions or discoveries and fresh imaginations or creativity.
    The etymology of 4B is interesting, but not constraining. There is evolution in language all the time. Words from other languages are adopted all the time as well.
    I found your explanation very useful and I am a fan of South Korean culture and want to travel there one day.

      No, our words come from the romance languages, the roots of the words contain the meaning of the word. Don't use that progress logic as it will make people even more lost.

    you realize that youre catering to misogynistic republican men right? even if that doesnt describe yourself. look at the comments on your videos especially pt.2 to this one, is that really the type of people you want to associate yourself with? not that it would be unexpected for a korean man (as a korean man myself btw). comments saying that 4B is all just ugly or lesbian women etc. the fact that after the election results there have been a surge of men online saying "your body, my choice". stuff like that is what pushes people to 4B movement (regardless of if their understanding or doing the movement the exact same way as korea). I hope that this doesn't accurately represent you.

      exactly. everyone in the comments is a republican and a man. i watched a bunch of his videos and there’s no diversity in the comments. it’s very clear what demographic he is catering to. there’s a MAGA cult in every reply section egging him on.
