Korean stock market crash hysteria [2992bD9OFYg]

I’m seeing hysterical headlines about a Korean stock market crash, people breaking down in public, losing their entire savings, even claims of a new financial crisis. But both the KOSPI and Samsung are still top performers this year against just about every other asset class. A simple price check would tell you this. Is there an attempt to manufacture panic or does fantasies of Korea failing get engagement?
