I don't know what or where you heard this but I think people are demanding the good representation of POC in historical manhwas where they're called barbaric, unclassy, etc. Edit: The answer got cut off. It's called fiction for a reason, can't someone represent POC in a not so stereotype and racist way? Society needs to understand that race/colour ......   1 reply

People don’t usually demand racial representation in Korean manhwa, most readers know the stories are set in Korea. What they do want is for Korean authors to be respectful when they include POC. Unfortunately, that’s where things often go wrong. POC characters are almost always reduced to harmful stereotypes: in modern settings, “tan” men......   reply

As someone from the other "POC" community (this is such a bullshit label but westerners love new buzzwords so gotta go with this), i think we don't need representation, but I also don't want these east asian authors using our culture and motifs without doing proper research. Either you do it correctly or you don't do it at all. Idk how in the era o......   1 reply

The time they make Arabic men stop being sex slave masters is the day I'll live. I'm not Arabic but I'm sick of that trope in certain historical manhwas. Can't yall make one where they actually fall in love without the girl or bottom sold to them?? Like historical wise (correct me if I'm wrong) they were mostly minors and is literally rape-culture ......   1 reply

Personally, I don't think POC diversity in manhwa is too important because of how homogeneous of a country South Korea is, compared to the US, where diversity in media js far more important due to the variety of people and cultures that live here. However that being said, I would like it if authors included other POC characters, then they'd better ......   reply

As a "poc" person I don't see any need for it, most manhwa take place in Korea itself which, as far as I know, doesn't have the same range of people and ethnicities than country's like the USA do. The only thing I ask for, is the story's that for the storys that do include "POC" characters, do it with respect. being for X country is not a personal......   1 reply

I mean i have only seen people ask for good POC rep if there's any. Like dont add it if you dont want it, but if youre gonna do it dont push the most racist stereotype out there. There's even authors who purposely write their stories in settings that allow for diversity yet you can clearly tell they didnt even do a Google seach of the culture or wh......   reply

'demanding' for other POC representation in manhwas doesnt make that sense that much to me tbh. artists are more inclined to create and using inspiration in the environment that theyre familiar in. that doesnt mean that manhwas with diverse characters isnt a bad thing! i just think that korean artists are free to draw characters that look like th......   reply

Idk, my attitude in general is that it's good (even if it's not necessarily 1:1 with reality) to include people from diverse backgrounds. I don't think stories should necessarily have to be about the average citizen. You'd be missing out on different narratives if it were that way (and, like, just because there's less people it doesn't mean they do......   reply
