so you’re fucking telling me ateez used a middle eastern instrument (عود) for the beginning of thanxx and also used middle eastern carpets for the mv (which didn’t make sense and i’m saying this as a middle easterner) AND KQ TAUGHT THESE BOYS TO CALL IT LATIN? man what?

i remember distinctly one of the members called the thanxx mv and beat latin music in the online concert which means kq just throwing shit in there and not researching ? this is how they also gave hongjoong that hairstyle smh kq really don’t care and do it for the aesthetic :/

man this rlly pissed me off this is my culture and u out here just completely basically ripping it off and not using the correct terms,,,, kq ass

KQ PLEASE PLEASE I BEG YOU DO RESEARCH AND DON’T USE OTHER FUCKING CULTURES FOR YOUR AESTHETIC!!!

here is the clip of yunho calling it ‘latin guitar’ this obviously isn’t fucking directed to yunho, rather the producers or people under kq who didn’t care enough to research/acknowledge the fact it isn’t latin! he obviously doesn’t know but neither does kq :/

i understand the instrument oud is middle eastern (obviously) BUT THE BEAT/ SOUND IS ALSO CLEARLY MIDDLE EASTERN! that is clearly the sound of an oud kq just don’t care and shoved it in there without any research (as i said before)

listen if ur not middle eastern u have no place in making the middle easterners that are actually offended feel stupid for this,,, the door is that way pls our emotions are valid
