[Umamusume] Korean players complain about Japanese watermelon eating habits, sparking community debate

Recently, a controversy surfaced within the community regarding an 'Umamusume' event: Korean players allegedly complained that the Japanese characters leaving watermelon rinds behind was a waste. The OP expressed skepticism and provided an image for context.

However, the post was met with widespread skepticism. Many users pointed out the lack of a primary source like a Twitter screenshot, labeling the report as 'second or third-hand' gossip and typical low-quality internet rumor-mongering.

The discussion in the comments shifted toward cultural differences. Some users noted that due to geographical limitations and high prices in South Korea, there is a local culinary tendency to consume almost everything, including the rind, which might explain their bewilderment at Japanese dining habits.

Regarding rumors of South Korea attempting to 'register the invention of watermelons' with the United Nations, users mocked the claim as absurd, arguing that such outlandish stories should not be treated as legitimate news.
