The linked article is hyperbolic if we're generous, in my opinion it qualifies as an instance of "fake news". >China has prohibited all hallyu, or Korean Wave

>China has prohibited all hallyu, or Korean Wave (K-pop), content in the country
This and the headline are false. K-pop is available on Chinese music streaming services, Korean dramas are similarly still airing, etc. What is true is that Korean stars are increasingly being barred from having concerts, events, and TV appearances in China, and that is leading to concern about whether more regulations are to come. BTW, MAMA 2016 went ahead without issues.
