honestly cultural sensitivity (is that what it’s called? idk) needs to be taught in korea... especially in idol training or something... this wasn’t just something said out of ignorance. they knew what they were talking about. racism is so fucking normalized and engrained in sk - https://twitter.com/cyberpunk127/status/1308803354110328833

culture, and it’s honestly fucking disappointing. how are you gonna become an idol, knowing that other non-korean poc will definitely become a huge part of your fanbase, and disrespect and discriminate against an ethnicity who probably has people part of it supporting -

and looking up to you? seriously, this entire thing was beyond disappointing for me to watch. sk people need to fucking start educating themselves and others about racism. even if the idol doesn’t explicitly hate on a minority, microaggressions still contribute to and normalize -

racism.

this thread was worded pretty poorly but i hope everyone got my point
