why this is offensive and nct needs to be called out on it : a thread https://twitter.com/Sinjita2/status/1319242879370313728/video/1
in the clip , xiaojun , shotaro and taeyong are mocking aspects of indian cultural dance called mudras/hastas (hand gesture) and attami(head movements).
head bopping is in the make a wish choreo , however the head bopping they are doing in this clip is very different from the one in the choreo
indian cultural dances : bharata natyam , kuchipudi , mohinniatam , kathakali , manipuri , sattriya , kathak and odissi all contain these mudras/hastas and attami
mocking a dance that is part of our culture is very offensive , hence they should apologise for this
by the way , i’ve been a bharata natyam for 7 years and kuchipudi dancer for 6 years , i also learnt mohinniatam for 3 years
also sorry for my shitty english
proof that i’m a dancer : this is a clip of me performing in sirsi
i stan nct btw
