Disclaimer:

I am not Korean, I do not speak Korean, I’m only using a translator app for this so I apologize if there’s some errors or mistranslation, please do correct me if I’m wrong my dms are open for any corrections. I’m decided to address this since I’ve seen a few —
— people are still confused on what’s happening. I am Asian, but I don’t know if this is my place to get involved between them so I’m just gonna try my best to gather all of the information and explain what happened.

if I missed something please dm me so I can add it here !
I also apologize if my grammar is not that good, English is my second language so please bear with me ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
at first I don’t really know what is all this about but once I read the whole thread, I think it might have something to do with this. https://twitter.com/kaiIIuas/status/1319211575186632705

back to the topic, OP quoted this tweet and make a whole thread, I’m about to get into it in a moment https://twitter.com/nct127union/status/1319669658077679616
OP is speaking up about the discrimination against NCT members that happened in the States 2018 (cmiiw)

a korean fans helped me with the translation, I apologize if there is any mistakes please do not hesitate to correct me ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
this is the video that OP mentioned.

another disclaimer, I am in no way defending any sides or normalizing racism / discrimination. I’m here only to clear the air and explain what’s going on between kfans and ifans^^
OP took a screenshot of an article that is talking about JS visited the U.S and filmed JTBC4’s “WHYNOT-The Danseo” and how he was subjected a racial discrimination.

I’m gonna post the video of it & the article next so you guys can check it out.
this is the video that the article mentioned, you can watch it at the end of the article as well.
OP also mentioned when NCT 127 goes on tour to the U.S early 2019, the members are out on their way to do some interviews and this happened.

(sadly, I forgot which city it was when this happened ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ)
OP: is it okay for you to be making fun of someone on the street for being Asian?
I remember this pictures blew up on twitter because some ifans are “giving three dollars” to them on the street as a joke.

kfans are angry about it and trying to reach out for someone to stop doing this but this “joke” just passed on, so many people are laughing at it.
ifans threw money on them at the concert too
aside from the whole thread that the kfans are speaking up about, it leads as to why the NCT 127 Fan Union only mentioned what NCT did but not mention what happened to NCT in the past.

I know a lot of things that can be considered as discrimination that happened to NCT —
— while they were on tour even after too, but I’m not gonna add more since this thread is only gonna be explaining why kfans are so mad.
the thread that OP made was simply about the mistreatment and racial discrimination that NCT got while they were on an International tour and how people never really think about this, yes some people have talked about this but for a while it just passes on
when they made a mistake, some of the ifans take it as racism or colorist and demand an apology statement even going as far as boycotting them which leads to antis joining too by saying things like they should disband or anything like that
this thread is not saying that what they did was an act of revenge because of what happened to them, it’s so ridiculous to think that they have time to make racist jokes as a revenge while some people keep pointing fingers at some mistranslation problem (the colorist video)
at this point maybe I’m not making any sense but this is my opinion, I’ll stop now before I spoke too muchㅠㅠ

I’m gonna end this here, let me know if there’s something that you would like to add here on my dms and I’ll consider it. sorry this thread took so long to finish! 😊
