Female bodybuilder accused of having “masculism mindset” on Netflix’s “Physical: 100” by female community
The so-called “female community” criticized Chun Ri, a female bodybuilder who is appearing on Netflix’s “Physical: 100”, for having “a masculism mindset”.
On Jan 31st, Chun Ri posted a statement about the recent controversy on Instagram.
In the statement, Chun Ri said, “To tell you my position, I and Park Hyung Geun had a fair confrontation as athletes, and I had no problems or complaints about this match. Why do men and women fight each other? This is an entertainment show. It’s just for fun. I hope you guys stop fighting and just enjoy it”…
After the statement was posted, the female community accused Chun Ri of having “a masculism mindset”.
The term “masculism mindset” means to criticize women who sympathize with masculine way of thinking or women who do not sympathize with feminism.
Community users left comments such as “You wrote down a frustrating sound”, “It’s a typical masculism mindset”, “This is why everyone is prejudiced against muscular people”…
Earlier on Jan 28th, a pre-released video of “Physical: 100” was posted on Netflix’s promotional YouTube channel “The Swoon”.
The video showed MMA fighter Park Hyung Geun and female bodybuilder Chun Ri going against each other in a “one-on-one death match”. In episode 2, which was released earlier, Park Hyung Geun drew attention by directly choosing Chun Ri as his opponent.
In the video, Park Hyung Geun tripped Chun Ri with his leg. Chun Ri, who fell to the floor, tried to fight back despite being affected by the sudden situations and pain, but eventually Park Hyung Geun gained the upper hand.
Chun Ri struggled to escape the pressure, but her effort was not enough. Park Hyung Geun shouted “I’m sorry” toward Chun Ri before pressing her chest with his knee to suppress her. The female participants who were watching the match shouted, “Her chest, chest,” expressing their displeasure.
In response, Park Hyung Geun glanced at the stands and did the gesture of zipping up his mouth to warn the women to “shut up,” creating a fierce atmosphere.
The video later spread to various SNS and online communities, causing controversy. Netizens criticized Park Hyung Geun, who pressed female participant Chun Ri’s chest with his knee.
