[theqoo] DEBATE OVER WHETHER RIIZE EUNSEOK'S COMMENT IS BASHING BLACK PEOPLE VS NOT BASHING


"Kkamdoongie Eunseok"

t/n: Kkamdoongie literally means blackie/dark skin. Sometimes, it may be used between Asian people, but is also used most often with similar connotation to N-word against black people

original post: here

1. It’s a term that has been used as a derogatory insult, so you should be careful. Even overseas fans know the word Kkamdoongie 

2. They're overreacting too much ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. We're living in a new era now. It's true that he needs to be careful 

4. Since he's a K-pop idol, he has to consider the sensibilities of the international market, so it is true that it was wrong, but if it is directed at Koreans, I don't think it is derogatory

5. He's just ignorant. Every person I've seen use the term Kkamdoongie was always to bash a black person 

6. I don't think his intention was to bash black people, but it's better to apologize quickly

7. I don't think he wanted to bash black people, but it's still a mistake nonetheless. He should be be more careful. If you're an idol, you should think before you write. Even trivial things can snowball into something bigger

8. It's a mistake, but I don't think he did it on purpose

9. It's indeed an insult 

10. But it seems like he acknowledged it was bad with how quickly he deleted it?
