After being made aware of the mess that has become of Lee Min-ho (actor) and The King: Eternal Monarch, I almost immediately suspected sockpuppetry was at play and dug deeper. First, Finrell ausi was created on May 16, Ginglepio on May 17, and Surozee on May 18, Patrick spanish on May 19, Patrickwife on May 20. Their edits are almost entirely contained to these two articles. Second, these users are strangely obsessed with adding puffery: Finrell ausi with "It was praised for its parallel universe concept and it is the #7th top rated show of 2020 on Netflix."; Ginglepio with "It is ranked #1 among U.S shows, an achievement in the Korean-drama history."; Surozee with "The drama ranks #19 in world most popular TV shows 2020 on Netflix making it the only South Korean drama to ever make the list. The drama is popular among international viewers ranging from Asian, Western and African.", Pipetyon with The drama is termed as a "hit Netflix drama".", Patrickwife and Patrick spanish with this mess and that mess, respectively. Rachaelgrooms made a single edit, which was reverted but re-instated by Ginglepio. There are several SPA in both page's histories, but they're harder to pin down to this particular group of users.
