Lady Gaga is under fire in Korea - and never even from the Northern half.
Christian groups in South Korea called on Friday for the pop star to cancel her concert there, saying it's "pornographic" and pro-homosexuality.
South Korea's government has already bowed to public pressure and banned people under 18 from attending, but certain protesters said that was not enough.
"Even adults can't see her performance that is too homosexual and pornographic," said Rev. Yoon Jung-hoon, organizer of "Civilians Network against the girl Gaga Concert."
"Some people can simply accept this as another culture but its impact is massive beyond art and debases religions."
The singer's hit song "Born This type" celebrates the empowerment of gay women and men, something that many in South Korea, that is the second one most Christian country in Asia after the Philippines, say is an immoral lifestyle.
No word if they've even heard the girl Gaga hermaphrodite rumor.
The star have been in Seoul for close on per week as she kicks off her Asian "Born this form" tour. To date, the backlash doesn't appear to have fazed her.
"Nervous for tonight. Hope I make little monsters happy and proud," she Tweeted some hours before the concert kicked off.
Yoon's group claims to have collected 5,000 supporters on Facebook against the concert and a few have often known as for a boycott of the sponsor Hyundai.
"The Christian Council of Korea with 12 million Christians and 55,000 churches will take every kind of measures similar to boycotting Hyundai to root out this type of obscene culture," the council said in an announcement.
Yoon said he would attend the concert to "monitor" the much-anticipated performance for homosexual content which could corrupt youth.
Have fun with that.
