They published horrible articles defaming Woojin and spreading rumors about him, including one about getting a fansite pregnant, and they even have an article called "Resurfaced clips of Kim Woojin with Stray Kids shows how uncomfortable he made them"

And now they're posting this shit like "oh remember the time we blatantly lied and defamed Woojin based on a random accusation from twitter along with nitpicking every interaction he had with skz? we don't! here are his abs"

I hate that site so much!! They didn't even delete the old articles filled with lies.

Apart from Soompi pretty much every other place you can go for Kpop articles is not reliable since Soompi is the only one that takes the time when posting articles while others like Allkpop and Koreaboo are more concerned with being the first to post something and they post pretty much anything while AsianJunkie is less of a news website and more of a blog that posts their opinions about Kpop news.

I feel like koreaboo has lot of freelancer writers and that they don't check the articles as often in terms of how accurate they are. That's at least feeling i have gotten. But it's pretty similar with lot of kpop newssites, i don't think there is lot of professional journalists working on those. :dubuthink:

though i have kinda soft spot towards koreaboo after they posted article praising jae (just when his "scandal" was happening) and fangirled over him ^^;

I think they do that to gain peoples trust and then blow it with the rest of their posts :wimwim:

I think the writer was genuine though cause she fangirled on twitter over jae noticing her article :lisalaugh:

But, I get the feeling they have lot of freelancers who wrote from different viewpoints and they don't fact check that much

koreaboo is probably the least reliable kpop "news source" though i wouldn't even call them that they just post whatever they want. i don't even stan woojin but it's not the first and probably not the last time they messed up.
