Kpopcast: for the best sounds & ideas in Kpop

While many point to the #BTSMeal as one of the best corporate partnerships in modern history, it arrives at an interesting time: McDonalds workers are going on strike for better wages, and some ARMYs have noted McDonalds' less-than-stellar corporate social responsibility. So, for responsibly-consuming ARMYs or #kpop fans, how should they support the BTS McDonalds collaboration?
We discuss with Amr - a labor rights organizer, Virginia Duan, and the gals of the BTS podcast, "Girlz with Fun."

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
