1. [+1,006, -25] Sigh, it's not like he's American, what's so surprising that a Korean person can't speak English?

2. [+863, -12] Do they have to look at him like that? Ask a Korean-American gyopo to take a Korean language test and I doubt they'd be able to do well on it.

3. [+66, -1] Just because he's mixed doesn't mean he has to be good at English

4. [+53, -0] But he looks so foreign that it did seem hilarious that he didn't know any English ㅋㅋㅋ kept asking for translations and all ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+45, -5] Why are they looking at him like he's trash? ㅋㅋ

6. [+44, -0] Whoever wrote the script for this show was really disrespectful. Han Hyun Min identifies himself as Korean so why not just be understanding of the fact that he doesn't know any English? Instead everyone kept asking him why he doesn't know or if he's faking it and acting like they're in complete disbelief. He's already a kid under a lot of stress over his skin tone, did they have to treat him like that on TV too? It made me uncomfortable how they were looking at him like he was some animal who knew how to speak Korean.

7. [+44, -0] What kind of stupid show is this? Why should anyone be ashamed that they don't know English?

8. [+32, -2] Why is Jung Shia looking at him like that when she doesn't know any English either? ㅋㅋㅋ She acts as if she scored a 960 on her TOEIC

9. [+26, -0] Is it really that weird that a Korean doesn't know how to speak English?

10. [+21, -0] So what if he doesn't know, why are they treating him like that?

11. [+15, -1] Nigerian genes must be strong. I would've thought he was 100% black if no one told me he was mixed.

12. [+10, -0] Totally rude to just assume anyone who looks foreign can speak English ㅋㅋ there are a lot of countries that don't speak it

13. [+10, -0] Their reactions toward him seem really rude...
