why dreamcatcher are racist and blatantly disrespectful of native, specifically ojibwe/algonquian, culture

- a thread

whether you are an insomnia (dreamcatcher's fandom), a non-kpop stan, a new comer, or just interested in the group you may be wondering, "why do people think this seemingly innocent girl group is 'racist' or cultural appropriatiors?"

so here's a detailed thread.

this thread will be split into multiple sections, i'm not sugar-coating a single thing here so if you want a nice explanation then this is not the thread for you.

first, here's a carrd that contains most of the information i will be going through in this thread http://sourfavewantstobeindig.carrd.co/#dcgg , however if you don't want to read that or want all of the info on twitter continue to read here.

1. who are "dreamcatcher"?

dreamcatcher, also shortened as deukae or dc, is a 7 member south korean girl group under happyface entertainment, specifically formed under the subsidiary company named "dreamcatcher company".

now at first glance this appears to be a normal group despite the rebranding and redebut with the addition of 2 members they went through after formally being called "minx".

the group is known for their signature concept and sound which is commonly descripted as rock.

and the majority unbiased opinion would say that their music is pretty good. as quoted by the members themselves, their concept for music videos, lyrics and album covers revolves around nightmares and dreamcatchers hence why their name is, well, dreamcatcher.
