misunderstandings about the whole RECENT south asian CAㅡa thread by an indian.

i will start off saying:

1. yes i am indian (jammu se hun. meri maa half chinese hai. mere dad jammu ke hai)
2. i have crosschecked all my translations with actual koreans and my real korean friends who know my identity.
3. i am NOT defending anyone or SUPPORTING anyone.

I am sure all of you know about the whole wonwoo situation. If you haven't seen the lyrics of it: heres it

It's racist. yes. and offensive in a way. but here are some facts:

1. Koreans aren't aware that this song is racist. They see it as an appreciation. And they are ready to learn that it's not appreciaiton.
2. Koreans aren't aware of this song that much and only know some parts.

3. Do not conclude the fact wonwoo was/wasn't aware of the song. like i said many koreans aren't aware of its lyrics and its meaning.
4. Cultural differences in korea are a lot different in india. The environment there is not what you assume to be. its not freaking america.

5. Educate. don't harass. An international carat called a korean carat the W word, which really hurt kcarats. Koreans are open to learning.
6. Emailing won't work. Pledis isnt checking mails. Try other things but dont directly type hate towards 웡ㄴ(censor) especially on wv.

7. i am not trying to invalidate the feelings of my fellow desis or koreans. i am disappointed too. but please learn about the whole situation before saying.
8. I will now provide clean screenshots with actual real time translations, of a convo i had with my korean close friend.

Conversation 1: with my abc korean close friend. (The in tweet mentioned translation with tweet is after this conversation)

End of conversation. (She agreed for me to share our screenshots)

The in convo tweet and translation.

The ss of OP in the tweet

another concerned tweet i found on my kstan tl. (translation by oomf ((cause my editing app crashed))

This is a conversation between oomf and me. Oomf is an international korean.

3rd screenshot context; i had sent my convo with my kfriend(in the above tweets)

1st screenshot context: the racial slurs used for kor in IND and vice versa. The situation is the same in both the countries.

End of thread.

All i can say:

Yes i am disappointed.
Education is more effective than cancelling.
Dont jump to conclusions.
Dont invalidate peoples feelings even if they are defending him after knowing all sources.
I am neither in support or against ww in this matter.

please read this too from the org singer (band member) of the song https://twitter.com/myungholovebot/status/1282978934611574784?s=20
