Comment Re:Towards the End of the BBC Article... (Score 3, Interesting) 199
The BBC article barely touches upon the issue about the TV show, "PD Notebook". It involved investigative journalists who used threats and their interviewees and hidden cameras in order to try to bring down Koreans' view of Hwang as a "god". Living in Korea, this stuff is all over the news.
So while we know now that Hwang had violated research ethics, so too did the journalists violate their own ethics.
Nationalism in Korea is pretty rampant, but it has not overwhelmed logic here quite as you put it.
Google for "PD Notebook" and you'll see what I'm yammering about.
