Looking at DHC’s own website, what might be the best course of action would be NOT ONLLY to #BoycottDHC but #BuyFANCL @FANCL_Official which ranks second in the ranking. Since DHC has the audacity to show this off. We should see the face of the CEO when the share drops to 10%.

#StopRacism CEO of Japan’s #DHC mocks its rival company #Suntory in a public statement for using Korean figures in their ads saying they’re ridiculed as “Chontory” on the internet. ‘Chon’ is a derogatory term for Koreans. Imagine this statement being released this year, in 2020.
“Chon” is derogatory term for Koreans living in Japan (‘zainichi’ Koreans) but is considered an all-encompassing term to denigrate ALL Koreans (and is used as such). You can say DHC took the risk to lose the Korean market. All Koreans are entitled to boycott DHC for this outrage.
Translation: “Somehow, the personalities used in Suntory’s ads are almost all Korean-Japanese. For this reason, they appear to be ridiculed on the internet as Chontory. DHC [on the other hand,] is a pure Japanese company including all personalities who are all Japanese.”
