Why Call of Duty in Korea could be ‘controversial’ | BBC News
The next Call of Duty game has been revealed, with much of the reaction focused on its campaign set around a fictional renewed conflict on the Korean Peninsula.
Modern Warfare 4, due out 23 October, partly follows South Korean soldiers battling a full-scale North Korean invasion.
Dr Sarah Son, Senior Lecturer in Korean Studies at the University of Sheffield, said the move “could be controversial” as it “turns still-unresolved war into entertainment”. Some Koreans reacted more positively, with one calling Korea’s inclusion in one of gaming’s biggest franchises a “symbolic moment”.
Developer Infinity Ward said the game will be “grounded in the military authenticity Modern Warfare is known for”.

Warning: contains details of alleged sexual offences and misconduct
Senior staff on Married at First Sight UK had an “unhealthy” focus on whether cast members were having sex, former workers on the show have told BBC News.
Producers would deliberately try to make contestants angry or upset for the sake of generating watchable drama, they say.
The former workers on the Channel 4 show have spoken to the BBC following a Panorama investigation into Married at First Sight UK (MAFS UK). Two former cast members say they were raped by their on-screen partners, and a third alleged a non-consensual sex act. Their on-screen partners have denied all the allegations against them.
Lawyers for CPL, the production company which makes MAFS UK, say the latest allegations are from a small minority of former workers, and the company’s “commitment to welfare… is evidenced by the high consecutive return rate of crew across the MAFS series”.
Channel 4 says contributor welfare is “always our primary concern across all productions”.
