Since some of y'all don't see the problem lemme explain <thread >

A mathapatti that the kpop girls are often seen wearing and their stylist seem obssessed with is not just jewellery . It's a part of bridal attire +++ https://thecrimsonbride.com/maang-tikka-maatha-patti-styles/

And is only worn on auspicious occasions .
The bindi or the dot in the middle of the forehead is actually symbolic of the third eye of wisdom and Shakti . The bright red often is only worn by married women . ++

The panja or the five ringed handpiece is also a part of the bridal attire

Examples of kpop girls wearing the mathapatti for decoration and as an aesthetic since we've not yet heard them acknowledge it yet

The basic meaning of the CA is to take symbols from other cultures and wear it without full knowledge of the culture or context

Ms Chungha also wore a Nath the nose ring
It was brought into practice by the mughals and in old miniature scriptures only court ladies are seen wearing it . Currently the nath hoop is worn by almost all north indians

Here this idol blatantly mocking our culture by wearing a duppatta and a bindi and posing for a photoshoot
( I dunno who she is but that's fricking offensive mam l )

Oh my girl's member not only she's wearing the bindi but she's doing that stereotypical move meant to make fun of our traditional dance styles

These dance moves are called mudras and the classical dancers usually dance for
1. Most commonly worshipping the deities
Or 2. To depict theatrics and old mythological stories

Back to Chungha's teaser She did the Bollywood dance moves which stems from Kathak one of the many dance styles of India

Small correction on the nose hoops since she wore it along with Desi symbolisms I didn't explain it well .
They are a part of a lot of cultures .
1. In aryuveda it is said that nose rings help in reducing menstrual pain and labor pains so indian women have worn nose <pins>++

And piercings for thousands of years .
2. The hoops were brought here by the mughals and it spread into Rajasthani culture and a lot of parts of North India.
3. In a lot of African tribes the size of the nose ring in the septum is symbolic of the amount of wealth+

A person owns.
4. The British came to our countries colonized us they thought that the nose hoops were cool took it with them and now it's the peak of punk culture of piercings and whatnot. Colonialism is so damn funny

No I won't delete part of my thread because your faves HAVE done cultural appropriation and not uttered a single apology .
It's ok to call out your faves and educate them when they mess up . Now fuck out of my mentions .
