so i've really been thinking about this and maybe it's going to sound a bit crazy, but bear with me.
apparently, now some (not all) k-netz are using this as an opportunity to hate against chinese people ... mnet knows exactly what they're doing and we're playing into their hands by giving them the reaction they want. what yaning said was outrageously wrong (though i'm suspecting now that it's scripted and they could be using her for drama fuel and potentially ruining her chances in the process), but they're playing it up and using it to garner outrage and more attention. they like the tension it's causing, even if it's going to hurt some of the trainees who weren't even involved just because they happen to be of the same ethnicity as yaning

unfortunately, due to the current relations between china and south korea being less than friendly, the chinese trainees will likely be in for unfair, harsher criticism anyways. i could very well be reading too much into this, and i'm not really trying to defend her as she doesn't seem like the kindest person based on her past behavior, but i do think she's being used at the same time.
i feel like i was kind of blinded by protective outrage and forgot how much mnet sucks, how they screw over everyone, use people as pawns, and how tricky they are
