Apink's Oh Ha-young Issues Apology on Chinese Social Media Amid Backlash

The controversy surrounding Apink member Oh Ha-young has also drawn significant criticism on Chinese social media.

Translated comments from Korean netizens:

1. Looks like she wants to promote in China.
2. China, too...?
3. Didn't China force people out of the entertainment industry for taking photos at Yasukuni Shrine? Do they think this can be forgiven?

4. She also manages a Chinese Xiaohongshu account, so she posted separately there.
5. China is also a victim; they suffered greatly because of Japan.
6. China is naturally very sensitive about Japanese colonial rule, and now Indonesia is also upset.

7. This incident is her fault towards Koreans, so why post it on Chinese social media?
8. China is even more resolute and strict on such matters. The main victims of Unit 731 were also Chinese (as it happened on Chinese soil). If she's seen as a Japanese collaborator, even as a foreign celebrity, she'll be disliked just as much as Koreans dislike her.
9. China will be stricter about pro-Japanese behavior. Relations aren't good right now either.

10. This makes Chinese people very happy.
11. Honestly, who in Asia wouldn't criticize this? I just see her as a traitor, and she's parading it around as if it's glorious.
12. China's history education is very strict. Elementary school textbooks contain a lot about the atrocities of the Japanese army.

13. She probably has unannounced advertisements or projects. It seems she's trying every means to cover it up now.
14. China is very strict about this kind of thing; they won't let it slide. The suffering during that era was immense.
15. China will probably dislike her even more.
