On November 1, Park Yoora reported that during Trump's recent speech, he referred to Korean president, Park Geun Hye, to make a sexist comment about female leaders. According to Park Yoora, Trump said, "If you want to look at the outcome of a female president, just look at the female president of South Korea."




However, it was revealed that this report is inaccurate and Trump actually never made such a comment about president Park Geun Hye. In fact, netizens claim that Park Yoora reported the news without checking the facts, and that the original source of her news is Facebook, where a meme of Trump recently roamed the web with the words, "If anyone asks about the future of a female president, tell them to look at South Korea." 




Currently, the report no longer exists as Park Yoora quickly deleted it after realizing her mistake. However, criticism toward her carelessness continues on.



Netizens are saying that Park Yoora is inadequate for her job, even stating that she landed the position in YTN with the help of her brother's popularity. On the other hand, some of EXO's fans are standing up for Park Yoora, claiming that everyone makes mistakes.
