A single line from a Korean drama has triggered a fierce backlash against one of South Korea's most recognised actresses, Jun Ji Hyun, threatening her £8 million stake in the Chinese entertainment market.
The controversy stems from a scene in episode 4 of political drama Tempest, where Jun's character delivers the line: 'Why does China favour war?' The moment has not only angered viewers in mainland China, but has also led to accusations of anti-China bias, cultural misrepresentation, and deliberate provocation.
