I would say that not because it's YG or a hegemon, but because their interest is primarily in K-pop (or a group), then yes, because they only take what is offered (as an indication of how important their idols are) and don't go deeper to learn more.

The one thing that you could do to improve (a small thing) is to remember to use #hashtags which will direct people interested in things like #demographics #birthrate #Korea to come to read your excellent analysis

We should use the Korean spelling for a place in Korea, so Gwanghwa Gate or Gwanghwamun.^^

Can the PPP Really Move on From Yoon Suk-yeol? Hoping to avoid a wipe-out at the local elections, the party finally issued an apology. But it’s going to be difficult to shake its pro-Yoon image – especially with the current leadership.

[Editorial] No greater sign that South Korea must prioritize building its own defense abilities South Korea must take responsibility for its own defense

It is now time to cease futile internal debates and steadily pursue necessary measures to dramatically enhance Korea's defense in a way that is not reliant on others.

Do you think that Mr Rashid wrote it this way because the @theguardian.com is a European newspaper? Is it necessary to do this to frame the story for the presumed audience?
