A thread about Oh My Girl’s racist & problematic issues and the excessive hate it is attracting.

I will explain what Oh My Girl has done wrong, what the fans are doing about it & our hopes for educating the girls. As well as commenting on the damage to Miracle’s mental health.

1st of all I want to clarify that we know that Oh My Girl have been ignorant on cultural appropriation issues & we are trying our best to educate them. However we believe they didn’t have malicious intentions & so we believe education is the way to go rather then cancelling them.

This thread will include the following :

1. Explain what Miracles are doing to educate the members.

2. The issues at hand, as well as why people might be hurt by them. But also explaining why we believe they didn’t have bad intentions.

3. The excessive hate.

Oh My Girl fans are called Miracles. & the group’s company is WM.

Us Miracles have been emailing WM nonstop, as well as tweeting the girls & commenting on Insta posts. We know the things that OMG have done have hurt people & cultures and so we really are trying to educate them.

However as we are a small international fandom, we are struggling to translate our emails, some of us are learning Korean just to be able to email & educate the girls. So please, if you want to help us educate them, DM me with suggestions to put in the email or to help translate.

WM are blocking the girls from apologising. This is common throughout kpop, that companies won’t allow their artists to own up & apologise for their actions. However many ppl still stan as they know their idol didn’t mean it in a bad way & that they aren’t allowed to apologise.

Here is proof the girls want to apologise. Seunghee liked a post about them apologising but WM made her unlike it. This was after the most recent issue & they haven’t done anything since, hopefully the girls are educating themselves now. WM also recently hired a cultural advisor.

People took the hate against Oh My Girl too far & harassed the groups family members. Arin’s brother posted this on Instagram, however he had to add the last bit as WM will not allow the girls to apologise. But from the way he worded it, you can see the girls want to apologise.

I’ll now go through their mistakes.

I want to show how they were ignorant rather than maliciously r*cist. They did bad things but didn’t have bad intentions.

However, I in no way want to deflect or excuse their mistakes, I know people have been hurt no matter their intentions.
