Chinese social media users declare war on cute South Korean cartoon Super Wings for allegedly disrespecting China


Preschool educational series Super Wings can no longer be found online after backlash. Complaints included that the show used incorrect maps of China and was misleading about the origins of a traditional festival. — SCMP

A South Korean cartoon series was taken off Chinese online video platforms last week after people complained that it misled children about the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival and used wrong maps that shrank Chinese territory.

Super Wings, a preschool educational series co-produced by FunnyFlux Entertainment in South Korea and Alpha Group in China, can no longer be found on major sites including Youku.com and Bilibili.com, although short clips from the show are still available.
