Prior to this, Cheonan posted a 30-second video on its official Instagram at 11:00 am on the 21st, when the Lunar New Year holidays began.
According to the video, a masked walnut candy doll wearing Hanbok (traditional Korean clothing) is chanting Japanese words such as "Moe moe kyun" and "Make it delicious."
This Japanese is said to be a buzzword of a comedian who has recently gained popularity by caricaturizing Japanese entertainment industry workers.
