The official website of the tour of the Korean women's group Blackpink was pointed out that the existing "nine -segment line" map caused Vietnamese fans to be dissatisfied, and Vietnam officially launched an investigation.
According to Reuters, the Ministry of Culture of Vietnam said on Wednesday (July 5) that it has ordered the verification of the website of the IME Entertainment Group from China.The Ministry of Culture of Vietnam has not responded to issues of verification results.
The websites have blurred maps containing the "nine -segment line", and the "Nine Section Line" almost covers the entire South China Sea.It is no longer possible to find related maps on the website.
China's "nine -segment line" in the South China Sea contains Vietnam's regions called the Vietnamese continent.
Blackpink will hold a concert in Vietnam on the 29th and 30th of this month, which will also be the first time Blackpink performed in Vietnam.
IME Entertainment Group and Blackpink's Korean brokerage company YG Entertainment has not yet commented on the matter.
Vietnam referred to as a "nine -stage line" map in the movie Barbie, so it decided to ban this movie from being released locally.
