The media was divided into three groups: those who supported him, those who didn't, and those who were neutral.
The majority were positive about him because the guy who posted the original video stated that Lee Baek was just protecting them.

On the TV:
"Good Afternoon, this is Korea Times!" a Korean newsman greeted in front of the screen.
"All of you have most likely heard of the ongoing viral sensation which shook the entire world. The video about an immortal hunter, Lee Baek Cheon, who single-handedly took down an entire goblin horde. Today, we are discussing the implications of this event. Joining me are two experts with differing views on the matter."
The screen split, showing a middle-aged man in a suit and a stern-looking woman with glasses.
"First, we have Dr. Kim Hyun-soo, a respected scholar and commentator who believes Lee Baek's actions were heroic. And with us as well is Ms. Park Ji-eun, a human rights activist who argues that his methods were too gruesome to be considered heroic."
"Dr. Kim, let's start with you. What do you make of Lee Baek's actions?" the newsman asked.
Dr. Kim adjusted his glasses and nodded. "Thank you. From what we've seen, Lee Baek was defending his team from a dire threat. The goblins were relentless, and his regenerative abilities allowed him to continue fighting despite severe injuries. His actions, while brutal, were necessary for survival. It's clear he was acting to protect his comrades."
The newsman turned to Ms. Park. "Ms. Park, what is your perspective?"
Ms. Park frowned slightly. "I understand the need for defense, but the level of violence he displayed was excessive. His methods were gruesome and inhumane. Yes, the goblins were a threat, but the way he dealt with them—bashing them repeatedly even after they were incapacitated—was unnecessary. It's important to maintain a sense of humanity, even in battle."
Dr. Kim interjected, "But Ms. Park, in a life-or-death situation, can we really judge someone for doing whatever it takes to survive? Lee Baek's actions, though extreme, ensured the safety of his team."
Ms. Park shook her head. "There's a line between necessary force and excessive brutality. Lee Baek crossed that line. We need to uphold certain ethical standards, even in the face of danger. Glorifying such violence sets a dangerous precedent."
The newsman intervened, "This debate is certainly polarizing. The world is watching closely, and opinions are deeply divided. What do you think this means for the future of hunter regulations and public perception?"
Dr. Kim leaned forward. "This event will undoubtedly lead to discussions about the ethics of combat and the responsibilities of hunters. Lee Baek's actions, while controversial, highlight the extreme situations hunters often face. We need to support them while also ensuring they adhere to ethical guidelines."
Ms. Park nodded in agreement, albeit reluctantly. "Yes, and that's why we must establish clear rules of engagement to prevent unnecessary brutality. Hunters like Lee Baek have immense power, and with that power comes the responsibility to act with restraint."
The newsman concluded, "Thank you both for your insights. This is a complex issue, and it's clear that it will continue to spark debate in the coming weeks. For now, we'll keep monitoring the situation and bringing you the latest updates."

Global Outcry: The Immortal Hunter and the Ethics of Extreme Combat
Seoul, South Korea – The internet and media have been abuzz with discussions about Lee Baek Cheon, an immortal hunter who became the center of a global sensation after a live-streamed battle against a horde of goblins. The footage, which showcased his extraordinary combat skills and near-unstoppable resilience, has ignited a heated debate on the ethics of extreme violence in the face of danger.
The Video That Shook the World
The video, which initially appeared on various social media platforms, depicted Lee Baek Cheon fighting against a seemingly endless wave of goblins. His regenerative abilities allowed him to recover from severe injuries almost instantly, but what truly shocked viewers was the sheer brutality of his combat style. The footage showed him repeatedly bashing the Goblin General's head, even after the creature was incapacitated.
The immediate reaction from viewers was a mix of awe and horror. While some hailed Lee Baek as a hero and a symbol of strength, others were disturbed by the excessive violence displayed in the video.
A Hero or a Villain?
In the aftermath of the video's release, public opinion has been sharply divided. Proponents argue that Lee Baek's actions were necessary for survival. Dr. Kim Hyun-soo, a respected scholar and commentator, supports this view. "Lee Baek's actions, while brutal, were a direct response to a deadly threat. His survival instinct and combat prowess ensured the safety of his team, which is commendable in such dire circumstances."
However, critics, including human rights activist Ms. Park Ji-eun, contend that the level of violence was excessive. "While I understand the need for defense, Lee Baek's method was inhumane. The repeated and brutal assault on incapacitated foes crosses the line of acceptable conduct. It's vital to maintain ethical standards, even in the heat of battle."
Public and Media Reaction
The video's release has sparked an intense debate across media platforms. The internet is flooded with varying opinions:
Supporters have praised Lee Baek as a paragon of strength and bravery. "This guy is the epitome of masculinity," one user wrote, while another compared him to historic warriors. "He's like a viking on Stamford Bridge. Truly heroic!"
Critics Argue that glorifying such extreme violence sets a dangerous precedent. "This footage should be banned," another user commented, expressing concerns about the impact of such content.
The Future of Hunter Regulations
The debate extends beyond individual opinions to broader implications for hunter regulations and ethical guidelines. The Korean Hunter Association is reportedly in turmoil as it grapples with the fallout from the incident. Discussions are underway about establishing clearer rules of engagement to prevent unnecessary brutality while ensuring hunters' effectiveness in high-risk situations.
The incident also raises questions about the responsibilities of those with extraordinary abilities and the need for oversight to ensure that their actions do not undermine ethical standards.
