Relevant comment (yes, from reddit) from a Korean national regarding the source:

Since the article is extensively quoting ChosunBiz though let me add two things as a Korean. Chosun Ilbo touts itself as a number one newspaper in Korea but you can think of it as a bastard child between Fox News and The Sun, absolute cesspool of alt right incubators that deserve zero respect. And then there’s Korean business newspapers which exist only to pump real estate price and be a mouthpiece to big companies to the editors’ gain, zero understandings about industries whatsoever.

Apparently, they have a name for right-wing trash in Korea - they call it 'Chojoongdong' (Chosun Ilbo, Joong-ang Ilbo and Dong-a Ilbo).

As of 2010, the market share of Chosun, Joong-ang and Dong-a Ilbo is 24.3%, 21.8%, and 18.3%, respectively. Nearly 58% of printed newspaper subscribers in South Korea read one of the three daily news.

Well...fuck?

You gotta understand, people in our generation don't read newspapers. Not surprised 60+ people read right wing trash

I don't think it's solely an issue with 60+ year olds, although I can't speak for Korea as I don't know anything about the country beyond general knowledge.

I have never seen a young person in Korea read a newspaper and I stayed there like 4 months

There are cringy young right wing people, but they use their phones to get information, just like young Trump supporters
