News Radio station makes disrespectful remarks on Lay and NCT127 (1 Viewer)

[kuro]

I mean, they have been seen as BTS before and I kinda get it (tho google exists)

exactly, and the artists are legit in the name of the song, they could've done some research -_-

 

[Walnutt]

I personally don't think they are required to know who they are, they did mistake of referring them as BTS, but I think i get more on radio stations side, kpop is not as much in their territory than us pop is and mistakes like mistaking another kpop group for BTS is bound to happen and they could have just thanked for correction and say they will get it right next time.

It was disminishing to say they are random Asian guys, i guess it could have been made in more lighthearted manner than meaning bad with it, but still disminishing. And the thing about Justin, Arianna and Taylor.. it's kinda true i guess, but it's still bit US centric view, there are lot of people in the world that know them better than those three.

It's their job, as radio anchors, to know the music that they're playing

Judging from their reactions, it's safe to call them racist and I don't throw that word around often (see above)

I think too, but we should stop make stupid people famous, they just want more exposure.. they won't apology well for something like this.

Am I suppressed? No it’s so fuckin sad. The whole idea behind jourlism is fuckin researching before you write. This was no damn mistake they are sorry people are mad. I’m over it.

 

[Darkseid]

Lol did they think they were being slick with the last part or what

 

[Soleski]

"random asian guys"
If you're not familiar with them just be respectful...

 

[Crackhead]

Western media is really shitty nothing new about that.
That wasn't even an apology just something to "save" their asses.
I hope they flop :D they deserve.
Anyways stan Lay and NCT dancing kings

 

[Moonbinlove]

I agree their name was in the song and they should’ve looked at the song more to see who nct 127 was Instead of assuming it was bts
They also could have left out “random Asian guys dancing ” it would have been less disrespectful

 

[Lighterxx]

great "apology" lmao like??? what is the goal lol

No

If Wendy isn’t racist than neither are they

 

[Seolhyun]

they are very very racist

Okay then what is Wendy? Just ignorant? Why is it always random foreign anchors/celebrities “racist” for their bs but dare anyone use that word for an idol when they do the same shit or worse?

why are you bringing wendy into this?

 

[Seolhyun]

why are you bringing wendy into this?

Do you think Wendy is racist? Because majority of kpop fans insist she’s only ignorant. If you think the latter then you hold a double standard period.

I mean if you're gonna be talking about a specific song... shouldn't you at least know some info about it? Cause you're using up airtime to talk about the specific song, just really unprofessional and the bunch of asian guys comment was uncalled for.
