It’s a SUPER heavy show, yes, but the story wouldn’t be the same if the protagonists weren’t children and I think it’s important to consider the author’s intentions. Choices were made to create the narrative that the show has. If people can’t handle the content of are offended by it, they are free to not watch it.
Again, I don’t know who the idols’ audience are and maybe it was in poor taste for them to recommend the show. But I do think the public and the media need to consider the full picture before slandering something for its contents. (I’ll reiterate: the show has an R rating).

K-pop fans proving once again why they’re the least liked fandom, and on top of that, why twitter is the worst social media. 2 in 1

A scandal has erupted in South Korea after a number of the country's top K-pop idols promoted a controversial Japanese anime series containing child torture and abuse.
The series, titled Made In Abyss, first premiered back in 2017, but it's now receiving widespread attention and condemnation in both Korea and abroad for its disturbing content.
A number of top K-pop idols, including members of the chart-topping boy bands SEVENTEEN and TXT, have publicly praised the series, which has sparked outrage from countless K-pop fans across the globe.

As far as I can tell, a K-pop idol said he liked the anime on a livestream, and a handful of people got mad on social media. The criticism seems to be coming from people who haven’t watched the show.
Basically nothing happened here. This article is garbage intended rile up outrage.

This is a Daily Mail article, and it only cites random comments. Yes, some people got mad, but is this meaningfully a scandal?

Thank you. This was the summary I wanted 👍

Fascinating. I've only been hearing the same sort of pearl-clutching comments about anime since... forever? Some things just never change I guess. Is it even newsworthy at this point?

Why not? This show is about kids. This story could happen to any 12 year old kid.
