I’ve been talking to some ilanders from Japan about K and Niki. I just want to say, don’t assume you know things about our culture ok. The way K talks to Niki is normal, he did use some harsh words, but it was more like he was talking to a younger brother, while giving advices. +
He was also very frustrated bcuz Niki wouldn’t open up to him. So you can also feel that when he talks. While some j-ilanders think K needs to be more aware of how he acts in front of the cameras some think their discussion was normal, since Niki is pretty young +
I also would like to clarify that sometimes Mnet did a bad translation of some expressions Niki used during the show. Especially when he used the word *Kuse* they translated as an addiction, something bad, but it actually means habit. I remember he wasn’t talking about Heesung +
I’m not going to say I hate the show, but I hate how they’re manipulating the only Japanese contestants and make them look like they’re a mess. When in reality Niki is just desperate to debut and bcuz he’s young he gets lost at how to get a better ranking. +
K is super hardworking and he doesn’t sugarcoat things, I honestly like much more that K is totally open to the point I don’t think he cares about the cameras he just wants to get the work done. It’s a shame all of this happened cuz it definitely affected the performance 😔+
Anyways Mnet is always evil editing my babies. But please don’t give up on them!!

Niki is super talented please check is past videos!

That’s it, it’s just a simple rant.
