A recent episode of Fox's Family Guy parodied K-Pop & life as a foreigner in South Korea, but not everyone is laughing. Korea FM spoke with two Korean organizations about the episode & how people are reacting to the animated sitcom's latest lampoon of Asian culture. However, at least according to these two groups, most of the jokes were funny, & Family Guy executives tell Korea FM that Korean staff members were consulted to make sure the episode "felt authentic."
