Concern over XDINARY HERO Junhan's Bubble Posts About Eugenics

What does “break down sugar” mean?

how does one organically get to this topic lol

even if he thinks this, and he does, he should keep to himself. not everything has to be shared with public. just shut up.

I feel like I'll disappoint him if I, as a white person, tell him I don't even know what that means.

Based on a Google search, it means "Sugar breakdown, also known as cellular respiration, is the process by which the body converts sugars into energy. This involves a series of steps that ultimately break down sugar molecules, like glucose, into simpler compounds, releasing energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)."

I assumed it had something to do with baking haha

i need this. i have way too much sugar and no energy lol

I'm not familiar with the group but what motivated him to make this post? Also, is he an edgy person?

It all feels so strange to talk about this all of the sudden. The racial stereotyping seems very barbaric, and it's the type that is very dangerous regarding the groups affected by it. I think he thinks these are compliments the way he phrases some of it.

I am still wondering if there's any type of racial and cultural sensitivity training in kpop. It just feels it happens way too often and idols not learning from others mistakes.

there's one stereotype that's true, Koreans are the most judgemental in asia

Everyone should know this by now after the countless scandals we've endured in just the last 6 years or so - stan idols for their looks, their music, their stage performance, and their IDOL persona.

Never stan them for their character or values, or what they truly think, because most of the time, you will never ever know and for some, you will never WANT to know. Idols are human beings with the exact same flaws as the rest of us.

I'm assuming he's saying white people have a faster metabolism and don't gain weight?

Never heard this stereotype for white people before. I thought that was associated with Asians

No way people actually think this when the national food is mcdonalds

Mmmm, im glad he is just an idol and not a mad scientist. Yikes

incredible stuff

Yes faster metabolism is associated with Asians.

What he said doesn’t make sense.

I've been searching Twitter and I can't seem to find what exactly prompted him to say this. Before the fan account posting the translations went private, I saw him talking about a professor and schoolwork? So maybe something regarding his schooling resulted in him thinking about this stuff? Obviously his education isn't that good if he's spreading this nonsense.

I could see schoolwork possibly being the reason to randomly talk about it. If it's schoolwork, I don't think a person would discuss their work in that manner. I am just unsure why he would post about something like that on a public forum. Also separating Indians from Asians is another problem. So much to unpack here.

for asians or white people? if it's for white people, that's not true at all, mcdonalds has always been expensive here

I meant like it doesn't make sense for him to think white people don't get fat when their national food is mcdonalds, and like how USA's obesity rate is more than 40%

If you walk down the streets of say Japan you will literally not find a single fat Japanese person for instance

that's because fast food is more expensive in Japan.

American citizens have it rough, food regulation is horrible in USA. A lot of processed food and Ingredients that are forbidden in EU are allowed in USA. the most iconic example is European and American fanta. American has radioactive colour. God knows what's in there.

Several years ago we had an issue with aflatoxin. In milk limit in EU and here is 0.05 µg/L. Our milk had 0.5 µg/L. You know how we solved it? We exported corn to USA because their regular limit is 0.5 µg/L.

Compare us vs uk ingredients

You have gazillions examples on the internet with Americans who spent some time in Europe, ate the same as they ate at home and they lost weight. Or vice versa. My sister's friend lived for a year in USA. She ate the same and gained 10 kilos. It's not that simple as you paint it to be.

Also, I think it's interesting that it's expensive for y'all but cheap for us. A lot of people here genuinely can't afford healthy food - or at least they don't have the time/energy to do the amount of research it takes to find the good stuff amongst the plethora of unhealthy stuff we have in our grocery stores. People with low incomes are usually overworked and some find that they need to rely on stuff like fast food to get by, which may unfortunately result in bad eating habits.

This obviously doesn't apply to every person who has a low income, many do manage to make it work. But I do sympathize with the exhausted who feel like they have no other choice but to rely on fast food or other unhealthy, quick meals.

Exactly. You are overworked, you really work a lot! Then you come home, you cannot even move to the couch let alone prepare food. And what are your options? Either to order something or buy food on your way home. I'm obviously not from the US and never been; where do people buy higher quality food? In same supermarkets or they have to go someplace else?

Corporations are working against you and government is doing nothing to regulate quality of food. To them if it's eatable then it's good. And then you get sick and spend gazillion dollars for health care.

It's always been expensive. I remember when i was really young the only way to guarantee your friends from class will come to your b day party is to celebrate it in McDonald's

In case you needed another reminder that these kids, most of whom never finished school, all have the collective IQ of a sloth.

Ahh yes, McDonald's, the "national food" of white people, because as everyone knows all Americans are white and fast food is all we eat.

Sounds like Sanseitō has its first Korean rep 😂

Sanseitō - Wikipedia

That aside, it's perplexing how he became interested in it, like it's from some sort of weird corner of Ilbe Storehouse, or something...

you can't tell if a race has increased metabolism based on cuisine alone

you need to set a baseline with the eating habits of both races

Reading this as an european

National food? lol my city doesn't even have a mcdonalds it's so expensive here you better off just go to a regular restaurant

I'm sorry but how are we not focused on him saying stem cell research (using embryonic cells that haven't decided to be a particular kind of cell to replace damaged cells) is the same as eugenics (selective breeding in humans to breed in or out certain traits), thats its already going on and those who don't have an ethical issue with it should do it?????

Also saying the reason black people are so good at music is because of extra ear cells????

And all these are meant to be 'pure and silly questions' from a guy in college trying to decide on his research project???????

What in gods name was in that college lecture if this is what he got out of it? Yeah he clearly has multiple screws loose but where is he getting this info????
