"Why, even though they are fellow Asians? 😱

ATEEZ’s Choi San: Controversy over "slant-eye" r*c*st gesture 😢

1. An 18-year-old Japanese content creator, who rose to fame via a viral meme from the 2026 World Cup stands, released a video mimicking the ceremonial first-kick pose of ATEEZ member Choi San.

2. A major controversy erupted when the creator performed a "slant-eye" gesture—pulling the corners of the eyes outward with their fingers, while imitating the choreography.

3. The "slant-eye" gesture is a blatantly r*c*st act that has long been used to demean and mock Asian people.

4. The fact that the person involved is also Asian, or that it was intended as a "simple joke," does not erase the discriminatory nature or the offensiveness of the gesture.

5. The creator is facing fierce public criticism and backlash for thoughtlessly using a widely recognized r*c*st gesture.

Seeking attention by leveraging someone else's influence while simultaneously engaging in r*c*st mockery is absolutely unacceptable, regardless of nationality!!"
