I remember browsing reddit a few years back and I was constantly spammed on muh Korean Soft Power. They are the ones leading the image of Asia blahblahblah.

I always knew it was a load of crap. And now that fad has come to an end, people can see what Korea really is like.

Call it intuition, pattern recognition, gut feeling etc. This is why you have people like Warren Buffet that have lasted decades and why you have these one hit hedge fund managers that couldn't make it past 1 decade. There's a difference between something real that lasts and a an overpriced fad.

to be fair the koreans are VERY good at exporting their female singers to be paraded around, everywhere from paris to milan to new york.

unfortunately cultural exports can't support an entire country, as japan found out some 20 years back.
