1. [+287, -6] Sam Okyere looked a woman's body up and down and defended himself saying it's a Ghana custom. Then he tried to be funny by slanting his eyes. These are all acts that he does because he looks down on Koreans. He should just quit his shows and transition full time into a Black rights activist. He has no right to be on our variety shows.

2. [+146, -3] It really took just a moment to lose everything

3. [+93, -5] Okyere... doesn't seem to know how to apologize. He should've apologized immediately... how pathetic.

4. [+69, -5] This is why you need to always remember your roots. He got too arrogant with all of his popularity. Go back to your country and live pathetically there.

5. [+35, -1] Reminds me of that guy from Turkey, Enes Kaya, who disappeared after his rumors of an affair came out

6. [+25, -1] It's over for him ㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+22, -0] He only earned the fame and money that he did for being a foreigner who lucked out. He shouldn't have acted like he earned all of that based on his own merit. He fell hard as a result. These people don't act with arrogance unless you let them.

8. [+21, -1] I don't even get why we give foreigners these TV show opportunities when we have tons of struggling people in our country as it is. It's not like these foreigners even respect us for it?

9. [+21, -2] He's totally lost everything. I doubt this scandal would've even gotten this badly if he had just left his post in Korean. Why write an English version and bring racism into it? He's caused too many misunderstandings with the two posts. He should've been more careful as a public figure. Farewell.

10. [+16, -1] He shouldn't even be allowed to choose to go on the show, are broadcast officials even sane to be letting him back still?
