Unsurprisingly, Jinggoy Estrada's suggestion got slammed by many among the K-Drama-loving masses.

After Senator Robin Padilla’s nonsensically suggested earlier this year that cable cars could be used to solve Manila’s traffic woes, another senator is in the spotlight for considering another ridiculous solution to one of the country’s problems.

“Eh ang prino-promote natin yung mga produkto ng Koreano kaya nagkakaron tayo ng halos maraming mga produktong Koreano rito satin. Imbes na i-promote natin ‘yung sarili natin, ang naipo-promote natin yung mga banyaga,”While perhaps well-intentioned, the idea of banning Korean shows to uplift Filipino creativity did not sit well with many online.

Meanwhile, others offered more comprehensive views on the matter, arguing that the government needed to provide better support to the entertainment and creative industries so they could produce better films and shows.
