A fact from Oxford (toy company) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 June 2024 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Korean brick toys, colloquially called "Korean Lego", often feature themes of "war and danger", including sets such as military vehicles?

The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
So this is technically not a 5x expansion. However, if you found a way to summarize some of the genres of sets in the bulleted lists, this would qualify. It's about 50 words short as far as I can tell. Otherwise AGF on the source, as I do not speak Korean.

I'm willing to AGF on the paywalled source, especially since the news articles about the company's new sets show off these same themes described.

Removed unreferenced content
I couldn't find references for the following claims - perhaps they exist in Korean?
Oxford sets are commonly copied by Chinese toy companies Sluban and Woma, sometimes with slight changes.
