    (T/N: title of this manwha is "Byeongkeu" which can also mean "f*ck up" usually used to describe celebrities' scandals/f*ck ups)When idols f*ck ip and get into gambling, drugs, DUI, s*xual assault or school violence scandals

    Foregin K-pop fans: Anyways, Koreans censor things way too severely
    It makes no sense that they are asking idols to withdraw just because of this
    You guys are not real fans. K-nets' hate comments are too much!! Idols should have freedom too

    Foreign fans: Are they crazy???????????????? F*cking idiots, you guys need to learn about other countries' culture
    K-pop is so ignorant of other countries' culture. This can only be worn by black peopleㅗㅗㅗ Apologize and release a feedback ^&*^&*^&

    Foreign fans: Koreans are seriously sensitive... This is all in things of the past
    I hope that they don't dwell in the past so much. Also, it's impossible for everyone to know that such things happened in the past. You Korean haters should be more open-minded

    Foreign fans: Cultural appropriation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare you copy Indian people's outfits?? Do you guys know what this signifies for Indian people???????????????? Why are Koreans wearing Bandis???? (insert all kinds of swears and mocking memes)

    Foreign fans: We can't help it since we're not living in Korea. Also, we can't afford to spend that much. You guys need to understand us. If not, you guys are just looking down on poor people & hate foreigners. K-nets are so narrow-minded

    When they hear "niga" (T/n: you in Korean) in Korean lyrics


    image.png
    Foreign fans: I know that this doesn't mean nig*er in Korea but even so, Koreans need to be careful!! Black people will be upset since they are still using words that could be misunderstood but these racists are so stubborn!!

    When works that distort history like Joseon Exorcist gets cancelled

    Foreign fans: Tsk tsk, Korean hate comments are acting up again. Why are Koreans so sensitive about things like these? This is just a drama. This is fake so they are not taking anything away. Koreans are so pathetic. Joseon Exorcist needs to be broadcasted again

    Foreign fans: Koreans are stealing our culture again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (terror)


    I'm not bullsh*tting they are seriously more worked up about reggae hair and Indian outfits than DUI and s*xual assaults;
    They have no intention to understand the Asian culture and even less intention to understand Korean history but they absolutely want us to understand their country's culture.


    original post: here


    1. Add "whitewashing" to this list too... they are going crazy over fansite masters who upload pictures of idols who originally had fair skin and accuse them of whitewashing. Then they put some red clay filter on their pictures and say "yeah, that's their natural skin color, this is the member's skin color, do you see how beautiful they are without the whitewashing?"... seriously, they made me want to swear because I was so furious


    2. Ah f*ck, this is f*cking irrefutable ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ


    3. They are seriously I-roaches and nothing more.... please go like singers of your country...ㅠㅠㅠ


    4. Whitewashing needs to be on the list too ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Koreans are the fairest but they are always making a fuss


    5. Seriously, I do agree that some Koreans are naive when it comes to their issues but the kids who are protesting against us and calling us sensitive have no interest in learning about why we are sensitive and are just treating us like we are all sensitive-bugs. This is indeed ridiculous ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Foreign fans are delusional when it comes to issues that touch the Korean sentiments


    6. They are not even Indian themselves but have a mental seizure over feathers. It's just ridiculous


    7. They just look down on Korean culture... K-pop is seriously just a capitalist culture ㅎㅎ


    8. If a picture is retouched, they insist on the whitewashing / if we tell them not to share paid contents, they treat us like slaves of capitalism / they write obscene comments on their official YT channels


    9. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Can someone translate this into English and send this to I-roaches?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ


    10. If their skin appears darker, they would leave comments like "no need to hide, please love your skin color"


    11. Just reading a few tweets makes me feel hopeless... but there are some gyopos who are inciting this kind of behavior too?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ f*ckers


    12. Please, go like singers or actors of your country instead. They have no intention or will to learn about Korean history, culture, values or taboos so why are they acting up?

    • Official Post

    I've never seen an actual fan of a group call for a member to quit the group and leave the industry for CA so I don't get their point.


    Also the points about the Rising Sun flag and distorted history goes hand in hand with international fans and CA so again... I don't understand their point.


    Unless their point is "all fans from every country are the actual worst" then I can agree with that.

  • Based kfans

  • ooff the tea

    they are pretty ignorant and insensitive but the ifans aren't clear of the doing the same thing

    it's the pot calling the kettle black


    both side need to sit down and eat their humble pie

  • Their argument seems to boil down to, "we should be able to do what we want to do!" since they didn't indicate any understanding as to why some peole might be upset about CA and stuff but then demanded that i-fans understand K-netz issues. I agree with them about some of the Korean-specific stuff that i-fans don't really get but they can't complain about that in one breath while refusing to understand some i-fans' perspectives in the next.
