Rant I saw on Kpop Secrets.
Here we go again...
Here we go again...
Honestly If a foreigner went on a show and slanted their eyes and said all Asian people like to eat rice, Asian people would take offense to it. Stereotypes arent funny.
Uh...that shit happens in every day life. C'mon, I've been asked by white people if I've ever eaten a God damn dog. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but if stereotypes are done for comedy, they're usually funny. That's why Chappelle's Show was one of my favorite shows. Yes, outside of comedy it is insensitive. Anyway...
It would be nice, MORE OFTEN, to see different races in the Korean media.
Why? Seriously, why? Korea is full of....you know....what is it....KOREANS. Of course you're going to see some God damn Koreans on fucking Korean TV. What the fuck are you expecting? You wanna see a God damn telenova on KBS 2 and Oprah on MBC or some shit?
The standard Idea of beauty is Pale skin. The Lighter, The Brighter, The Better in other words.
God damn, it's not because of white people that Asians feel this way about pale skin. You could have done a simple Google search to find the reason why.
As you all know K-Pop was HEAVILY influenced by African American music. So why arent we in their MV or why arent their many Black K-Pop singers?
Jesus Christ, the stupidity is astounding. First, we know Kpop is influenced by African American music. Modern pop is, we know. It's like you want some God damn credit for Psy's Gangnam Style or something.
Regarding the second point of the quote, maybe because most of the black people in Korea are in the military. It's not like you're going to see a military member in a MV. C'mon, THINK. Why would there be black Kpop singers? I don't see the damn logic in black singers leaving America where they dominate the scene and leave for Korea's music market. They'd be giving up millions of dollars, worldwide fame, and would have to learn another language. I know this fangirl would retort with "But what about Chad Future? He's white and is debuting in Korea." Chad Future is a fucking troll and everyone knows it.
Black people, it's fine to like Kpop, but don't expect Koreans to change everything for your sake. There are black people in the American music industry, so if you want to root for people that are the same race, you're listening to the wrong God damn music.
