tvN’Naked World History’The tvN entertainment’Naked World History’, which returned after Seol Min-seok got off, was also engulfed in controversy over history distortion.
Park Heung-sik, a professor at Seoul National University’s Western History Department, criticized the episode broadcast on the 30th of last month.
Professor Park told his social network service (SNS), “I have studied the Black Death for more than 10 years, and from the point of view of a scholar majoring in Europe in the late Middle Ages, this is really not.” A doctor who did not know how to interpret even raised only distorted perceptions of viewers,” he claimed.
In this article, Professor Park said,’The Bare World History’ did not reflect recent interpretations related to plague in terms of statistics or etiology, treat unreliable data as if it were historical facts, and the renaissance began in the process of overcoming the Black Death. He said he made a false claim that it was done.
Accordingly, the production crew of’Naked World History’ said on the 1st, “The plague, which aired on the 30th of last month, is composed of the related content from the perspective of medical history.” “We have been advised by the people and have completed the verification process.”
However, in the post, Professor Park expressed displeasure, saying, “I asked myself hard, but I didn’t use the contents I asked myself at all.”
Previously,’Naked World History’ was criticized for distortion of history by Kwak Min-soo, head of the Korean Institute of Egyptology, on the part of Cleopatra.
When Seol Min-seok got off the train with suspicion of plagiarism, the production crew changed the format in a way to deliver information by inviting subject experts as lecturers after a reorganization period.
