poor Renee, she must get these kinds of questions wherever she goes in Korea. She was very kind to come and talk about these subjects but I can't help but wonder if it would have been more helpful to let her talk about what she personally finds frustrating and offensive in Korea and what Koreans can do differently when interacting with her, rather than asking her to try and summarize how all Black people are. Still, I'm glad to see her again and do hope she comes back and I would love to hear more about her own life and interests!
its good to be curious and ask questions as long as there nice about it and not going around assuming things making it worse, so id rather people ask questions rather than making assumptions about you
Renee was so patient. So much of this was so cringe. Like you can tell she was like ehhhhh these stereotypes lol. So glad about y’all spreading info. Like don’t ask to touch peoples hair and don’t say any variation of the n word. It’s that simple. Nice video today y’all.
Of course there's stereotypes- why there is a need to educate. Outside/inside US, people learn about others via news & videos. Interesting that some people in China believe US is all white and not a mixed nation.
With you 1000%. This channel usually talks openly about things that you couldn't 5 years ago. Hyeni may be clueless that her exagerated missappriation of black slang and mannerisms is actually keeping stereotypes alive, but the pd who picked the cringe vids and her had to know.
Rap and hip hope? My African self watching this and feeling extremely unrepresented! And not the first time I have seen this stereotype on a Korean YT video.
Renee is such a sweetheart! I think it'd be great to have a full educational video with her debunking more stereotypes and explaining why certain things shouldn't be said to/about black people.
Such videos already exist. It just takes using one's search engine to retrieve the information. I admire Renee a lot. She is intelligent and educated. There is no reason why she or any one person should have to shoulder the role of Educator about Black people. She is, after all, a human being. Renee can no more speak for the entirety of all Black people than the group BTS can represent all South Koreans. BTW - no, I am not trying to pick a fight with you. Nor did I interpret your post as a literal request for Renee to be spokesperson for all Black people.
@@claudiawoods4382 I get that. I don't expect her to be the spokesperson for a whole community, just like I don't expect Latinxs and queer people who have been on this show to speak for all of us Latinxs and LGBTQIA+ folks. But I dare say the purpose of these videos is to record the interaction between koreans and people they wouldn't normally interact in everyday life and debunk some misconceptions and prejudices, since, from my understanding, Korea hasn't been in touch with diversity as much as other countries. I proposed a more educational video, because I think it's a good plataform to shine some light on those questions and sayings that some people don't even realize are considered racist/sexist/xenophobic/homophobic. But I get what you're saying, though, and all the implications of expecting someone from a certain race/nationality/gender/etc to have to be educating people on those matters.
@@KamilaGrrr - Instead of just one or two people for your idea of a more educational video, then make it a panel of multiple people with varied backgrounds. That would go a long way with emphasising that - like ALL human beings - no group is a monolith. A segment like that would be really interesting, especially if the interviewers would also be open to responding to questions and observations in return. Dialogue is fantastic. Being examined under a microscope - not so much.
She's too politically correct in my eyes. Generalizations are a reality whether u like it or not. We do it everyday all the time without even realizing it and stereotypes always come from some form of reality. What we should all do is not to take it too seriously especially the non-offensive ones. For example when people say black people like fried chicken and watermelon.... I mean so fcking what? Why would people even get mad at that?
i remember watching another video like this and some guy said “black people need to have their hair in braids or else their hair will stab them and kill them” ??? 😭
Had me sitting here like damn sis, blink twice if we need to come get you 😭 She seemed uncomfortable, sigh. But yes, she’s absolutely right, black people are not a monolith and it really sucks forcing stereotypes on us. The diaspora is far and wide, black ppl come from all over the world. We are all culturally and socially different. We’re a vibe tho!
Ahhhhhhhhhh this was a hard watch. I’m Asian American, so I have experience from both cultures. America is so diverse & there’s been a lot of effort made to educate on how to recognize racism & how to unlearn stereotypes and biases. Asian countries lack that multiculturalism so there’s no one around them to hold them accountable or to point out when something they say is wrong. Micro aggressive beliefs & stereotypes are so deeply ingrained into their minds by the outside media they consume but there’s no time taken to actually listen to REAL black voices. I’m from Japan so I’ve known people with the same thought processes as these two so this vid was especially cringey. Renee was so patient, I think I would have snapped.
As a blk person watching this, i kinda cringed like renee did. Especially with the girl to the right of renee. In the beginning when she kept saying “yo” and using gestures in hip hop music, I couldn’t help but cringe. Idk if she was just nervous or something, but she was a bit too much this video. Girl needed to take it down a notch and should’ve did more listening and being receptive. And not be so quick to voice anything or respond before renee could finish what she was saying.
Yes I can totally undertand what you're saying, even though I'm white... Just imagine being the only black/white/asian/etc. with a room full of people looking different than you and making weird assumptions about people like you. It's easy to insult others even you're not meaning it, especially with different cultural backgrounds. Being sensitive and polite is and will always be important.
granted, you have to consider that the immigrant population in Korea is ~4%, and most of those immigrants are Asians, so they wouldn't have nearly as much exposure to afrodescendent cultures (or others like latino, etc etc). Their main knowledge would be stereotypes, and since they'd be less exposed* to afrodescendents in their country, they may not even know that what they're doing is cringe or borderline racist. can't expect people to have an american/western view on things when they didn't experience it.
@@JazzyCrumbles Yes you're right. There are also many places in rural areas of Africa where people have never seen any other than black people. Kids get scared and adults confused when they see a foreigner there. Maybe the intention behind your actions is more important than the actual reaction. If you're aiming to be rude, saying nice words won't make you friendly.
THANK YOU, RENEE! As a black woman, I have felt uncomfortable with some of the things I’ve seen and heard in Korean media and wished for someone who could address the misconceptions and prejudices people sometimes have. I appreciated how you dispelled stereotypes and had the grace to educate thoughtfully while also not pandering or playing into respectability or ignoring or excusing racist ideas. You’re a gem!
It’s crazy how people describe black people as gangsters and scary but proceeds to do racist stuff in our face. This @ 0:27 was really unacceptable. I can’t believe a grown woman thought it was okay to mock black people right in front of a black person. It’s a shame that Renee even tolerated because if it was the other way around it would’ve been a problem.
Koreans really dont know about these things. They usually do racist stuff and even dont relize its racist until you told them. I dont apologize them for this ofc. But I just want to point out they are usually not wanting to be rude they are just stupid and try to broke berrier and usually be funny. I had with this problem too to be honest.
As an African, I think she did a good job of representing Bw in the best light. I don’t think that’s done enough in the media and I love the way she politely corrected them. She’s the sweetest 🥰🥹
Renee is very sweet but I have to wonder if this video might have made her a little uncomfortable? I really hope not. Because she said it in Korean and the English translations are not always perfect on the channel, I am having trouble determining if she was saying that black rappers should not include that word in their songs, or just that non-Black people should not sing along with it. I would be interested to know her stance on it. Based on the questions at the end, I feel like this video just proves that it is pretty common for Koreans to be ignorant of what is and isn't okay with regards to cultural appropriation or things they might say that could be considered offensive. I hope with time their younger generation has the chance to learn more about other cultures outside of Korea.
It's not so much ignorance as it's not known. I am a firm believer in asking and communicating with different cultures. How do you know if you never ask? Especially in a country like South Korea where the population is 98% the same race. I'm mixed so I get tons of questions. As long as they have a genuine interest and curiosity without being rude or prejudice then it's all good.
I think she said they might have the word in the songs, but it's best those listening do not repeat it. That's exactly what she said, which was right. Personally, I find the word offensive period as a Blk American, but I can't police how other Blk people express themselves.
"black people can do anything except tanning their skin". tell that to my skin everytime I go into the sun. We can get darker, we can get sunburn too like everyone else. we use sunblock too BTW...
Me too sis, I got beef with the sun every summer. I’m wondering why she didn’t correct that cause we do in fact tan and sunburn as well, just not to the severity of nonblack folks.
Yeah my aunt had a whole fit cause I was like I don't want to go in he sun cause I'll get dark and she was like what is wrong with dark skin I have it. Lol I'm thinking like when I get dark from the sun it's a ugly darkening of the skin but when you're naturally dark it's pretty and your skin actually glows unlike if you're just getting dark from the sun.
it's true that a white person will in almost every case get burned faster than a black person but saying black people don't ever get sun burned or tanned is a stereotype
@@terynb4407 Actually you can get a really nice even dark tan from the sun even if you’re not naturally dark. You should search up videos of black girls using brown tanning oil to tan. It helps our skin glow even more and there’s a nice tan
@joydot.dot.dot.8040 ooo thank you cuz i lost all my tan when i moved to england and i look so pale (for yt people reading i mean i look less glowy and like healthy. The British sun is very damamging )
It is clear that everyone loves Renee 💜 I love how polite she is when talking about sensitive issues that interpellate her, and that despite her discomfort/anger she does not lose her peace and calm 🙌🏽
@@SirenRising I think so too, in the face of indignation one wants to shout, but it's the internet and the internet is cruel. Still I admire her ability to remain calm and not shut up what she thinks, she is amazing.
Renee you were so chill I was thinking Ughhh for most of this 🤣 Since Seungwoo lived in USA and he's a dancer who's around black culture more he seems to understand it a bit better but it's good to see both of them be open to doing this as some Koreans might not think this is important as they figure they will rarely be around a black person. But I see more black people wanting to come to Korea for college and careers or just to have a safe peaceful life. And we should be open to learning about Korean culture too so we don't fall into any stereotype thinking as well.
@@girls4chuu He said he was really young when he was in America but he still seems to understand some English. I can see how he seems ignorant on some topics but I definitely don't see him as more ignorant than her. He literally explained and translate some things to Hyeni when Renee spoke English. The N word topic would make him seem ignorant for asking about singing along with the song but I think if he hadn't asked the way he did not all Korean people would grasp how important that was. I hope both of them learned a lot from Renee.
Renee handled this with so much class and grace she was being exceedingly patient without being defensive, all while debunking each sterotype. Especialy with how quickly and calmly she handled addressing why people of another race should NEVER say the N word which is a racial slur. She is always a joy to watch, I'd love to see her more up here or for her to do a video with Hosung he's very well informed that would be good cohesive video to watch and informative for each culture. I also loved that she addressed each scenario as if the questions were purely based off ignorace and not arrogance because some of them were very degrading and demeaning. This was a good reaction though and I loved the interactions between them it"s so refreshing to see Renee. Video explanation: The man wearing the red velvet durag is simply more attracted to his own race than he is other races 💜
Renee's facial expressions said it all. Cause I made the exact same face lol this was kinda cringe. She definitely has alot of patience. I applaud her 👏🏾.
I believe the sketches are more related to afro-american stereotypes than necessarily black people in general. Personally none of these situations are familiar to me, the feeling it's kinda like a Korean watching a video of Asian stereotypes only related to the Japanese culture.
Or watching videos assuming that the stereotypes are all based on Korean drama shows and that the people of Korea act like those characters.. As an American I don't relate to pretty much any of this stuff either, and so does many of my friends and family. It depends on region where your family is from.
I don't think I'll finish the video bc I can already see the fuckery they're on but from the first 2 tiktoks it wasn't even black people culture. Like what does black parents(even though many parents of many races gives whippings) have to do with understanding black culture and educating Koreans on it. Also the girl not understanding the second clip, like c'mon, her mom is more flexible and her dad doesn't let her do anything, that's not just a "black thing" and it doesn't educate anyone.
7:08 i interpreted it a little different she does everything a stereotypical "black" person does, but as soon as she speaks, people accuse her of acting "white" because she probably uses standard english in daily language standard english: what we are all taught in school
@@vewkei we can just disagree. it's an insult just because people use it as a term of endearment doesn't erase the fact that it's an insult people also call their friends stupid when they say something funny. it's still an insult. if you feel empowered by a vulgarity, that's on you
@@p0rnany0ne i agree with you but im just saying that the whole point of the word being reclaimed is so that black people can turn the term into something between them
Renee was very understanding and patient especially with some of the stereotypes included in this. I’m glad more and more of these videos are being made to address and inform others.
No, this is par for the course for people in countries with low diversity. Especially in Asia. It takes time but as long as the basic etiquette gets out, I'm happy
@@teamceline9712 No there’s black ppl in Asia especially China and Korea, this is nothing new to them they know exactly what they do when it comes to black ppl especially when it comes to our culture which is why she was acting like that in the beginning, some may not be aware but most should know by now abt stereotyping, same goes for them when they’re stereotyped
@@anonnnymousthegreat Yeah way too much I’m sure her intentions was harmless but it gets annoying when foreigners or even white ppl try to relate or do and say cringey things when it comes to black ppl cause they know of our culture , it was awkward but they should know by now abt stereotyping 🤷🏾♀️
I like how she was trying to explain the best she could because she knew that they didn’t understand that much about what goes on, and she was just so sweet about it. Especially when they asked questions because they wanted to understand better.
she's so sweet and gentle, I can also tell seungwoo especially was trying to not leave all answers on her and show some understanding in most situations it's still uncomfortable to see this situation but I'm glad they seemed willing to learn
Being mixed is really hard.. the questions you get are super annoying and I actually really hate people touching my hair but I do understand that Koreans like skinship a lot.. that's probably why my mom married my dad 😅
I'm surprised there isn't a ton of Latino/Latina and Korean relationships. Latinos LOVE skinship so much, we want to be like white on rice....ask my husband, lol he'll confirm that. We have 4 kids. Only reason we don't have more is because I physically/medically couldn't carry and birth any more children. We wanted a big family (4 is not big to us). Not as big as my grandparents though. My grandparents had 15 children. I've never even met my entire family, too many cousins. Lol
Ladies and gentlemen, I would have lost it if I was Renee. I get so personal when it comes to dem stereotypes!!... I cringed a lot throughout the video...
Renee thank you for being so gracious about all of this. I appreciate how you interacted and educated the hosts. All black people are NOT the same and neither are anyone in the other ethnicities of the world. In the black community the core culture is similar but not the same either. We are all raised differently and live differently as well. The cringe was real and I honestly felt offended. Even though you are in Korea....their culture is not the only one that needs to be respected in the situation. The cultural respect should be reciprocal always no matter where you are. I hope they learn black people can tan, cannot all dance and sing, do not all rap or even listen to hip-hop, do not all use the n-word, do not all live the same or have the same experiences, do not all know each other, and do not all conduct ourselves as graciously as Renee did when it comes to stereotypical ignorance and insensitive commentary like the hosts in this video. Their comments were offensive and I felt uncomfortable. I'm sorry Renee had to go through that. This is why itis so important to educate ourselves and broaden our circle of friends. Never generalize someones culture or race. You'll embarrass yourself with cringe like this.
Rene you handled a remarkable sensitive topic with tolerance and wonderful explanations. It was very difficult seeing you help them out processing the worst videos. Whoever chose the videos need cultural diversity courses.
Felt so uncomfortable watching this as a black person, mainly because of the stereotypes the rest of the crew were giving out and saying weird remarks. I don’t think I could’ve had that much patience😭
these tiktoks anyone can relate too 😭 i swear y’all see a tiktok with a black person and just be adding it 🤷🏽♀️ EDIT: Renee is sooo gorgeous and i’m so happy that she educated them two!
10:08 One stereotype about korea is that the personal space doesn't mean as much as it does in the U.S. in the U.S., asking a stranger if you can touch them is creepy Even if you know the person, touching someone without asking is wrong...consent is a thing and if you have to ask someone you know if you can touch them...just weird it's just a slippery situation
Her "Oh" and hands over her face at 7:28... I felt bad for her. She didnt want to get into the racism part of it. She was so relieve when he explained it lol. She is so Gentle
8:44 I get her point. Why even ask that question? I don't ask anyone what their preferences are because it's none of my business and if I'm interested in them, I just ask them if they like ME. The rest doesn't matter It's okay, i guess, that he likes south american girls, but who cares? Why would you care unless you wanted to date him? Or maybe set him up with someone on a blind date
This! This is the part people fail to understand. You should see some of these toxic folks in other people's livestreams or comment sections (especially on content released by Aduan-looking guys, these days). The same way it's racist, cringy and stemming from objectification to say things like "I want a Korean boyfriend " any and every time you think a Korean guy might be listening, it's not okay to shove your racial/ethno-cultural preferences (based on stereotypes rather than personal experience) into people's faces. It says a lot about how you'd treat anyone falling for you, when that's your mindset to begin with. Preferences may exist but they shouldn't be a barrier stopping us from seeing each individual in front of us for who they are rather than "what" they are.
I couldn’t handle that Korean girl's introduction 😅😅😅too cringe plus all the hip-hop stereotypes that she was doing nooo. I felt like she was over doing 😬but all in all at least they tried to bring a black person to talk about some of the stuff and all which is a step forward . She really did a good thing breaking down that generalizing thing and only talking about her family as every black person doesn't act the same.
Aye yay yay. As a part black and part Asian person, this was kinda cingey to watch. I couldn't even finish it because of the stereotypes and misperceptions. It was kinda painful to watch and bless Renee for sticking it out but I think I did see some eye rolls in there.
It's crazy how outside of american culture especially black culture, other countries call us selfish and self centered, for telling them to know, learn and be respectful of our history and culture. But then shame america for not knowing and learning their culture and history 🤔 Make it make sense 😒
Next time I think you should choose tik tok videos that are more recent and less stereotypical.. Also when the korean dude said his type is 'south american girls' As a colombian I hope he knows the country is very diverse w black,indigenous,white and even mixed latinos l in South America so for him to say that in a video about black people didn’t hit me right 😭
I agree I'm also south American (Guyanese) and this comment just rub me the wrong way I mean south Is a continents with 13 countries are multiple different cultures.
@@prieltheprune1302 South American girls are girls who live in South America aka Latin America. There are 13 different countries and they all have their own cultures n diversity 🙃
I've gotten the, "you talk white", my whole life. Recently, someone said, "It's giving me, 'Get Out' vibes." I don't watch scary movies, but apparently it has something to do with trying to turn black people white, or trying to sound "white". What's wrong with proper grammar? It shouldn't matter what skin color you are.
ikr, and a dude who said this to me wad ASIAN. like I guess you 'talk white' yourself since you're speaking english. Can't even see their own hypocrisy
At mark 7:35, they aren't the same things. There is a difference between cultural appropriation and a whole culture (race) being accused of acting as a white person when in reality we are just being ourselves within a predominantly white community/country such as the US. Being called an "Oreo" (black on the outside and white on the inside) is vastly different in this case. I felt that I had to say this as a black female who has experienced such growing up. I do enjoy this channel and I hope that many realities of many people of various ethnicities are able to be told in a real, genuine, and unembellished way.
asking to touch someone else's hair is so strange to me, lol... i've never once felt the need to touch anyone's hair except my own and my kids when i have to brush it out for them. lol............. i did have an elderly women want to touch my hair back when i was a teen and had it dyed a teal color... she thought for sure it was a wig (i'm nearly 40 now, so having teal hair back then was deff not common) she looked like the stars just fell from heaven when i let her feel my hair, lol.... she probably would have taken me home just to keep petting my hair, lol
I am mixed and had a girl once ask to touch my hair. She was polite, afraid of offending. Girl clearly never knew how my hair felt she was like a baby touching something new. Did not get offended. It depends.
When he brought up that Asians are accused of trying to black for those certain things, my first thought was that's anybody that isn't black bro 😅. Because of those stereotypes. My second thought was that I can understand the copying things you like or all of a sudden changing your behavior to be like a genre of ppl. I get that it can annoy some ppl if wearing someone's culture is only a fun costume until it's inconvenient, but really as long as nobody is shaming, harming, or putting down that group of ppl who gives a fuck. Have fun enjoying the differences of one another. With that being said I have a confession to make....the picture of the Asian man with dreads scared me😅. Yes, I a black woman was shook. Only because the image popped up and took me by surprise. I didn't know what it was and when I realized I had a good laugh and I'm sorry. Idk how it happened.
I feel like she could've explained things further like why you shouldn't use the n word and the history behind it, aswell as explain to them why some of the stereotypes they mentioned may be harmful, and maybe done that in Korean rather than English so korean speakers watching could understand and realize why some things are unacceptable but overall she did a good job
@@DeeVination well for one subtitles aren't always reliable and the guy and girl even admitted to not understanding some things she said, so just so everyones on the same page I would've spoken Korean, but I'm not condemning her for it just a suggestion
I honestly don't think they did because this channel doesn't have much of a Korean audience tbh. "Koreans react to" viewers are made up of mostly non-korean viewers because Korean's don't want/need to know how Koreans would react to certain things because they themselves are Korean...does that make sense? It's kind of my one gripe when it comes to these types of channels, because they're not really bring awareness to the Korean public at large, just the 2 to 4 people reacting to it. It's just a way they can pat themselves on the back and say they did a good thing without actually doing anything lol. One way to tell is by whether or not the actual video has Korean subtitles or just english. How are Koreans supposed to know what Renee says when she speaks in english? They aren't worried about that because their audience isn't Korean. Sorry for going on this rant >.< i just think about this every time i see a "korean reacts to [insert race and/or racism]".
They're not even listening and they're so loud and ignorant it's frustrating. Renee is so calm and respectful yet those 2 practically ignored her and made fun of black ppl right to her face yet we're mean and threatening
Renee is the best part of this video. It is so important that people of other cultures understand why you shouldn't treat a Black person any differently than you would someone of your own race
Don't know what this is but I can clearly see that the black girl is annoyed and this was really uncomfortable to watch as a black person. The comments are saying that she is patient and understanding but she had to act polite for the camera. Anyone can tell that she was annoyed and rightfully so
For some reason I feel like they were forcing compliments 💀this was so weird to watch…why tf did they put her in that uncomfortable position…bro I will always be weirded out by these kinds videos 🤷🏽♀️and why tf are they acting like she’s some kind of “special breed” or sum..taking about “they were shocked when they seen her” ….the obsession with us is crazy..
Girlie on the right was in that how you feel about black people video y’all rushed to delete instead of addressing the issue right? So no surprise she was acting like that in the first 30 secs
See how when asked Abt black people they associate us with western stuff. Black is not just Abt hip hop and razz stuff. It's not also just Abt physical ability, mehn.
Wrost than ASKING you if they can touch your hair is directly touching without asking!!! Sometimes even after you said you don't like it. I understand you like my pretty hair that took mom hours to finalize but please keep your sweaty hands to your self!!! You shouldn't touch something just because it's pretty and at a hands reach!! You don't do that at the museum at least!
Renee, you were so patient…I’m sorry for so much cringe, it was hard for me to watch as an Asian, I can’t imagine how frustrating it was to participate.
I can't finish this video, all it did was enforce stereotypes. From the 1st four clips that were shown, I can already tell this is not an educational video. Really explain to me how black parents whooping their kids help Koreans learn anything about the black culture so that they might act more appropriately around black people? Especially the other girl, she saw these clips and doesn't understand what they mean, it's just entertaining to her. Black people will still be "hip-hop" "swag" and "yo" to her. Like c'mon, black mothers aren't the only ones that nag, but even still the guy took the video as the gestures she made? So when he speaks to a black person, I'm sure he's going to be doing the same gestures.🙄I'm just so annoyed, they make these videos for clout without actually having NY real educational intentions. Renee looks so uncomfortable like she has more to say butis biting her tongue. You can tell how she doesn't want them to generalize black people but she's forced to do so with the videos they're showing them and she has to explain how she understands the video which solidifies in their mind that all black people are the same
This was an absolutely horrible video. Who thought of this? There are so many stereotypes and I can see Renee being uncomfortable. This is truly disgusting.
I was not uncomfortable cause I’m used to it smh but I was definitely surprised that there are still grown adults out there who use social media 24/7 who don’t know you can’t say a racial slur, they would literally look up the meaning of any word BUT the one that is used towards black people🤦🏽♀️
I think it's best to ask questions and reading something in English if you don't fully understand English doesn't help. And let's not forget we got white rappers saying the n word and getting passes by black rappers they cool with so it becomes confusing. If black rappers stop using it in songs that horrible word wouldn't be global and we wouldn't have to keep having these conversations to people out side of America. No other race is walking around using there racial slurs amongst each other 🤦🏿♀️
@@juannifer32 That's why i dont really understand black americans. In africa, africans dont use the 'n' racial slur amongst each other or on theirselves. But black americans use 'n' racial slur on amongst each other and on themselves...so how can u be using a racial slur on yourselves and expect other races not to use it on you?? You re only showing them that you are not seeing d 'n' word as a racial slur and that you re comfortable woth it, since you re even using it on yourselves...so what do u expect other races to think? They would think d word is also good and using it on you too! Cos the 'n' racial slur word is such a bad word amd you are so discomforted with it then you wouldn't be using it on yourselves! I mean if its so bad then why would you be using it on yourselves?! It doesn't make any sense at all! cos i havent seen any race using the racial slur word, that other races are calling them, on their selves too..it doesn't make any sense. So if d word is so bad then ypu have to take the lead by stop using it on yourselves so that other races would follow suit and stop using it on you too. Its jus like a man and his family calling themselves 'goats' and expect outsiders not to call them goats too since you keep on calling yourself and your family goats. Does it make sense?? So black americans need to stop using that 'n' slur word on themselves whether in singing or in anything so that other races would stop using it on them so that the word word would die a global natural dead.
@@docsinchu2612 I agree I really dislike the person who decided to reclaim the n word and started using amongst ourselves it distasteful and ignorant and now we have this same word being repeated globally and it's out of control. We have to do better!
COMMENT 130!!! Pweeze have them all react to some scenes from RUSH HOUR to kind of talk about stereotypes from both Asians and African Americans. I think it'll be eye opening for them!! Love your videos and love chuu guys!!
Love how the guy understands a lot of it and also understands how some isnt funny in real life since black people experience some of those things (like people asking to touch their hair)
Renee is a trooper for sitting between the two of them and those ignorant comments lol. Especially the girl. So cringe 😬 And telling a black person they act white (usually in reference to speaking “pRoPeR eNgLisH and not meeting offensive expected stereotypes) is way different than telling a Korean wearing BLACK hairstyles and BLACK hip hop fashion or performing music and dance created by black people they are copying black ppl… they literally are…. smh.
poor Renee, she must get these kinds of questions wherever she goes in Korea. She was very kind to come and talk about these subjects but I can't help but wonder if it would have been more helpful to let her talk about what she personally finds frustrating and offensive in Korea and what Koreans can do differently when interacting with her, rather than asking her to try and summarize how all Black people are. Still, I'm glad to see her again and do hope she comes back and I would love to hear more about her own life and interests!
Would also be nice if she got to pick the videos instead of what tic tok spreads around
Considering Sam O is still not talked about in Korean media even though he was right tells me that isn't going to happen.
its good to be curious and ask questions as long as there nice about it and not going around assuming things making it worse, so id rather people ask questions rather than making assumptions about you
Ofcourse she has to be asked. And it's okay to ask
Renee was so patient. So much of this was so cringe. Like you can tell she was like ehhhhh these stereotypes lol. So glad about y’all spreading info. Like don’t ask to touch peoples hair and don’t say any variation of the n word. It’s that simple. Nice video today y’all.
Of course there's stereotypes- why there is a need to educate. Outside/inside US, people learn about others via news & videos. Interesting that some people in China believe US is all white and not a mixed nation.

she gave the right facial expression
With you 1000%. This channel usually talks openly about things that you couldn't 5 years ago. Hyeni may be clueless that her exagerated missappriation of black slang and mannerisms is actually keeping stereotypes alive, but the pd who picked the cringe vids and her had to know.

"Hip hop and rap. yeah yeah"!
Renee: Not a "confused" face more like a "please stop face" 🤦🏽♀️.
right i was cringing so hard😭
Rap and hip hope? My African self watching this and feeling extremely unrepresented! And not the first time I have seen this stereotype on a Korean YT video.
Renee is such a sweetheart!
I think it'd be great to have a full educational video with her debunking more stereotypes and explaining why certain things shouldn't be said to/about black people.
Such videos already exist. It just takes using one's search engine to retrieve the information.
I admire Renee a lot. She is intelligent and educated. There is no reason why she or any one person should have to shoulder the role of Educator about Black people. She is, after all, a human being. Renee can no more speak for the entirety of all Black people than the group BTS can represent all South Koreans.
BTW - no, I am not trying to pick a fight with you. Nor did I interpret your post as a literal request for Renee to be spokesperson for all Black people.
@@claudiawoods4382 I get that. I don't expect her to be the spokesperson for a whole community, just like I don't expect Latinxs and queer people who have been on this show to speak for all of us Latinxs and LGBTQIA+ folks. But I dare say the purpose of these videos is to record the interaction between koreans and people they wouldn't normally interact in everyday life and debunk some misconceptions and prejudices, since, from my understanding, Korea hasn't been in touch with diversity as much as other countries. I proposed a more educational video, because I think it's a good plataform to shine some light on those questions and sayings that some people don't even realize are considered racist/sexist/xenophobic/homophobic.
But I get what you're saying, though, and all the implications of expecting someone from a certain race/nationality/gender/etc to have to be educating people on those matters.
@@KamilaGrrr - Instead of just one or two people for your idea of a more educational video, then make it a panel of multiple people with varied backgrounds. That would go a long way with emphasising that - like ALL human beings - no group is a monolith. A segment like that would be really interesting, especially if the interviewers would also be open to responding to questions and observations in return.
Dialogue is fantastic. Being examined under a microscope - not so much.
@@claudiawoods4382 sure, that's a great idea. Hope they are able to shoot it some day.
She's too politically correct in my eyes. Generalizations are a reality whether u like it or not. We do it everyday all the time without even realizing it and stereotypes always come from some form of reality. What we should all do is not to take it too seriously especially the non-offensive ones. For example when people say black people like fried chicken and watermelon.... I mean so fcking what? Why would people even get mad at that?
as a black person this video was a little difficult to watch, i would probably not know how to react to some of the things they said lmao
i remember watching another video like this and some guy said “black people need to have their hair in braids or else their hair will stab them and kill them” ??? 😭
@@ningcide444 I saw that 😭
They are like kids, they don't know anything, but I like that they are asking and want to understand. Theybwill educate others
@@mariah.noelll when he said that i deadass facepalmed where did he hear that from 😭
@@ningcide444 When I watched that it had me wheezing like where tf do people get this info from? XD
Had me sitting here like damn sis, blink twice if we need to come get you 😭 She seemed uncomfortable, sigh. But yes, she’s absolutely right, black people are not a monolith and it really sucks forcing stereotypes on us. The diaspora is far and wide, black ppl come from all over the world. We are all culturally and socially different. We’re a vibe tho!
Ahhhhhhhhhh this was a hard watch. I’m Asian American, so I have experience from both cultures. America is so diverse & there’s been a lot of effort made to educate on how to recognize racism & how to unlearn stereotypes and biases. Asian countries lack that multiculturalism so there’s no one around them to hold them accountable or to point out when something they say is wrong. Micro aggressive beliefs & stereotypes are so deeply ingrained into their minds by the outside media they consume but there’s no time taken to actually listen to REAL black voices. I’m from Japan so I’ve known people with the same thought processes as these two so this vid was especially cringey. Renee was so patient, I think I would have snapped.
🖤
Yikes
I LOOOVE RENÉE!!! Ever since I saw her give Kim Minseok (the actor) english lessons I've been wanting to see her more
As a blk person watching this, i kinda cringed like renee did. Especially with the girl to the right of renee. In the beginning when she kept saying “yo” and using gestures in hip hop music, I couldn’t help but cringe. Idk if she was just nervous or something, but she was a bit too much this video. Girl needed to take it down a notch and should’ve did more listening and being receptive. And not be so quick to voice anything or respond before renee could finish what she was saying.
Yes I can totally undertand what you're saying, even though I'm white... Just imagine being the only black/white/asian/etc. with a room full of people looking different than you and making weird assumptions about people like you.
It's easy to insult others even you're not meaning it, especially with different cultural backgrounds. Being sensitive and polite is and will always be important.
granted, you have to consider that the immigrant population in Korea is ~4%, and most of those immigrants are Asians, so they wouldn't have nearly as much exposure to afrodescendent cultures (or others like latino, etc etc). Their main knowledge would be stereotypes, and since they'd be less exposed* to afrodescendents in their country, they may not even know that what they're doing is cringe or borderline racist. can't expect people to have an american/western view on things when they didn't experience it.
@@JazzyCrumbles Yes you're right. There are also many places in rural areas of Africa where people have never seen any other than black people. Kids get scared and adults confused when they see a foreigner there.
Maybe the intention behind your actions is more important than the actual reaction. If you're aiming to be rude, saying nice words won't make you friendly.
I agree with you
Exactly it's very annoying
THANK YOU, RENEE! As a black woman, I have felt uncomfortable with some of the things I’ve seen and heard in Korean media and wished for someone who could address the misconceptions and prejudices people sometimes have. I appreciated how you dispelled stereotypes and had the grace to educate thoughtfully while also not pandering or playing into respectability or ignoring or excusing racist ideas. You’re a gem!
It’s crazy how people describe black people as gangsters and scary but proceeds to do racist stuff in our face. This @ 0:27 was really unacceptable. I can’t believe a grown woman thought it was okay to mock black people right in front of a black person. It’s a shame that Renee even tolerated because if it was the other way around it would’ve been a problem.
No I cringed so hard at that part I had to pause and leave the video😭 like I’m not watching anymore of it now
Koreans really dont know about these things. They usually do racist stuff and even dont relize its racist until you told them. I dont apologize them for this ofc. But I just want to point out they are usually not wanting to be rude they are just stupid and try to broke berrier and usually be funny. I had with this problem too to be honest.
I can agree that it was cringe but mockery? Idk about that one
Lol. Me I possibly would have let her know about herself. The whole video she was cringe.
As an African, I think she did a good job of representing Bw in the best light. I don’t think that’s done enough in the media and I love the way she politely corrected them. She’s the sweetest 🥰🥹
Renée is so patient and very well spoken! I love it!
That’s backhanded
This comment is so backhanded 😅
Renee is very sweet but I have to wonder if this video might have made her a little uncomfortable? I really hope not. Because she said it in Korean and the English translations are not always perfect on the channel, I am having trouble determining if she was saying that black rappers should not include that word in their songs, or just that non-Black people should not sing along with it. I would be interested to know her stance on it. Based on the questions at the end, I feel like this video just proves that it is pretty common for Koreans to be ignorant of what is and isn't okay with regards to cultural appropriation or things they might say that could be considered offensive. I hope with time their younger generation has the chance to learn more about other cultures outside of Korea.
She was saying that those rappers use it in their music but non black people shouldn't repeat the words.
@@Sunflower-rb6lf Thanks! I wasn't sure because of the translation.
It's not so much ignorance as it's not known. I am a firm believer in asking and communicating with different cultures. How do you know if you never ask? Especially in a country like South Korea where the population is 98% the same race. I'm mixed so I get tons of questions. As long as they have a genuine interest and curiosity without being rude or prejudice then it's all good.
I think she said they might have the word in the songs, but it's best those listening do not repeat it. That's exactly what she said, which was right. Personally, I find the word offensive period as a Blk American, but I can't police how other Blk people express themselves.
Renee was so calm, my anger issues could never, i wouldve walked out the first sentence 💀💀 been dragged out by the cops even cause aint no way
Exactly
For what???
agressive much
@@reeeeeeeeee4364 u talk like an 11 yr old white girl. Girl bye
"black people can do anything except tanning their skin". tell that to my skin everytime I go into the sun. We can get darker, we can get sunburn too like everyone else. we use sunblock too BTW...
Me too sis, I got beef with the sun every summer. I’m wondering why she didn’t correct that cause we do in fact tan and sunburn as well, just not to the severity of nonblack folks.
Yeah my aunt had a whole fit cause I was like I don't want to go in he sun cause I'll get dark and she was like what is wrong with dark skin I have it. Lol I'm thinking like when I get dark from the sun it's a ugly darkening of the skin but when you're naturally dark it's pretty and your skin actually glows unlike if you're just getting dark from the sun.
it's true that a white person will in almost every case get burned faster than a black person but saying black people don't ever get sun burned or tanned is a stereotype
@@terynb4407 Actually you can get a really nice even dark tan from the sun even if you’re not naturally dark. You should search up videos of black girls using brown tanning oil to tan. It helps our skin glow even more and there’s a nice tan
@joydot.dot.dot.8040 ooo thank you cuz i lost all my tan when i moved to england and i look so pale (for yt people reading i mean i look less glowy and like healthy. The British sun is very damamging )
This looked uncomfortable for Renee. I felt the cringe through the screen. And yes being told I sound or act white is a huge insult.
It is clear that everyone loves Renee 💜
I love how polite she is when talking about sensitive issues that interpellate her, and that despite her discomfort/anger she does not lose her peace and calm 🙌🏽
it’s sad. if she were to get (rightfully) upset they would label her kinds of things. which is not fair…
@@SirenRising I think so too, in the face of indignation one wants to shout, but it's the internet and the internet is cruel.
Still I admire her ability to remain calm and not shut up what she thinks, she is amazing.
We love Renee ❤️❤️❤️ Black beauty right there
Renee did so well. I'm sure that this was a great learning experience for all involved.
Renee you were so chill I was thinking Ughhh for most of this 🤣 Since Seungwoo lived in USA and he's a dancer who's around black culture more he seems to understand it a bit better but it's good to see both of them be open to doing this as some Koreans might not think this is important as they figure they will rarely be around a black person. But I see more black people wanting to come to Korea for college and careers or just to have a safe peaceful life. And we should be open to learning about Korean culture too so we don't fall into any stereotype thinking as well.
i felt like he was the most ignorant when it came to asking questions so it’s surprising to find out he lived in the US..
@@girls4chuu He said he was really young when he was in America but he still seems to understand some English. I can see how he seems ignorant on some topics but I definitely don't see him as more ignorant than her. He literally explained and translate some things to Hyeni when Renee spoke English. The N word topic would make him seem ignorant for asking about singing along with the song but I think if he hadn't asked the way he did not all Korean people would grasp how important that was. I hope both of them learned a lot from Renee.
@@girls4chuuhe does come off a little ignorant but in other videos he ssid that in his 6 months Daytona he never really met any black people.
Renee handled this with so much class and grace she was being exceedingly patient without being defensive, all while debunking each sterotype. Especialy with how quickly and calmly she handled addressing why people of another race should NEVER say the N word which is a racial slur. She is always a joy to watch, I'd love to see her more up here or for her to do a video with Hosung he's very well informed that would be good cohesive video to watch and informative for each culture. I also loved that she addressed each scenario as if the questions were purely based off ignorace and not arrogance because some of them were very degrading and demeaning. This was a good reaction though and I loved the interactions between them it"s so refreshing to see Renee.
Video explanation: The man wearing the red velvet durag is simply more attracted to his own race than he is other races
💜
Renee's facial expressions said it all. Cause I made the exact same face lol this was kinda cringe. She definitely has alot of patience. I applaud her 👏🏾.
Renee was so patient 💕 I love seeing her in videos
I believe the sketches are more related to afro-american stereotypes than necessarily black people in general.
Personally none of these situations are familiar to me, the feeling it's kinda like a Korean watching a video of Asian stereotypes only related to the Japanese culture.
Except the beating and wasting food…
@@khanyi8512 I'm Latina and our parents are like that. Same with my husband's Vietnamese family. I think that's a universal thing. Lol
Or watching videos assuming that the stereotypes are all based on Korean drama shows and that the people of Korea act like those characters.. As an American I don't relate to pretty much any of this stuff either, and so does many of my friends and family. It depends on region where your family is from.
Exactly.
I don't think I'll finish the video bc I can already see the fuckery they're on but from the first 2 tiktoks it wasn't even black people culture. Like what does black parents(even though many parents of many races gives whippings) have to do with understanding black culture and educating Koreans on it. Also the girl not understanding the second clip, like c'mon, her mom is more flexible and her dad doesn't let her do anything, that's not just a "black thing" and it doesn't educate anyone.
7:08
i interpreted it a little different
she does everything a stereotypical "black" person does, but as soon as she speaks, people accuse her of acting "white" because she probably uses standard english in daily language
standard english: what we are all taught in school
@@vewkei we can just disagree. it's an insult
just because people use it as a term of endearment doesn't erase the fact that it's an insult
people also call their friends stupid when they say something funny. it's still an insult.
if you feel empowered by a vulgarity, that's on you
@@p0rnany0ne i agree with you but im just saying that the whole point of the word being reclaimed is so that black people can turn the term into something between them

Black people are people. I dont understand how a personality or talent can be determined by their skin colour.
Blame on your race. We are the stupid ones
As a black person, I realized some people don’t see me as an actual individual human being but a collection of stereotypes. It’s pretty sad.
Gotta admit the beginning was cringe especially at 0:26 like what 😂 I felt the same way Renee was feeling not all of us act like that but ok🥴🤷🏾♀️
Yeah, as a blk person i was cringing as well. The girl was trying too hard. And idk if she was just nervous, but it was a bit too much.
No, this is par for the course for people in countries with low diversity. Especially in Asia. It takes time but as long as the basic etiquette gets out, I'm happy
@@teamceline9712 No there’s black ppl in Asia especially China and Korea, this is nothing new to them they know exactly what they do when it comes to black ppl especially when it comes to our culture which is why she was acting like that in the beginning, some may not be aware but most should know by now abt stereotyping, same goes for them when they’re stereotyped
@@anonnnymousthegreat Yeah way too much I’m sure her intentions was harmless but it gets annoying when foreigners or even white ppl try to relate or do and say cringey things when it comes to black ppl cause they know of our culture , it was awkward but they should know by now abt stereotyping 🤷🏾♀️
@@monique5963 hey bro 😅 yo yo rap hip hop
I like how she was trying to explain the best she could because she knew that they didn’t understand that much about what goes on, and she was just so sweet about it. Especially when they asked questions because they wanted to understand better.
"people say that black people can do everything except for tanning their skin"
people say wrong
Just imagine how uncomfortable Renee was...
Renee is so sweet and I look up to her, her confidence is so inspiring
she's so sweet and gentle,
I can also tell seungwoo especially was trying to not leave all answers on her and show some understanding in most situations it's still uncomfortable to see this situation but I'm glad they seemed willing to learn
Being mixed is really hard.. the questions you get are super annoying and I actually really hate people touching my hair but I do understand that Koreans like skinship a lot.. that's probably why my mom married my dad 😅
I'm surprised there isn't a ton of Latino/Latina and Korean relationships. Latinos LOVE skinship so much, we want to be like white on rice....ask my husband, lol he'll confirm that. We have 4 kids. Only reason we don't have more is because I physically/medically couldn't carry and birth any more children. We wanted a big family (4 is not big to us). Not as big as my grandparents though. My grandparents had 15 children. I've never even met my entire family, too many cousins. Lol
Ladies and gentlemen, I would have lost it if I was Renee. I get so personal when it comes to dem stereotypes!!... I cringed a lot throughout the video...
Renee thank you for being so gracious about all of this. I appreciate how you interacted and educated the hosts. All black people are NOT the same and neither are anyone in the other ethnicities of the world. In the black community the core culture is similar but not the same either. We are all raised differently and live differently as well. The cringe was real and I honestly felt offended. Even though you are in Korea....their culture is not the only one that needs to be respected in the situation. The cultural respect should be reciprocal always no matter where you are.
I hope they learn black people can tan, cannot all dance and sing, do not all rap or even listen to hip-hop, do not all use the n-word, do not all live the same or have the same experiences, do not all know each other, and do not all conduct ourselves as graciously as Renee did when it comes to stereotypical ignorance and insensitive commentary like the hosts in this video.
Their comments were offensive and I felt uncomfortable. I'm sorry Renee had to go through that. This is why itis so important to educate ourselves and broaden our circle of friends. Never generalize someones culture or race. You'll embarrass yourself with cringe like this.
Rene you handled a remarkable sensitive topic with tolerance and wonderful explanations. It was very difficult seeing you help them out processing the worst videos. Whoever chose the videos need cultural diversity courses.
I was feeling that get me tf outta here vibe at the end💀
I'm black and I don't understand half of what was shown.
Felt so uncomfortable watching this as a black person, mainly because of the stereotypes the rest of the crew were giving out and saying weird remarks. I don’t think I could’ve had that much patience😭
Another episode of "walking on egg shells..."
I remind you that we, blacks have different "shades" and that some of us can tan our skin so please don’t say things you don’t know.

One stereotype about korea is that the personal space doesn't mean as much as it does in the U.S.
in the U.S., asking a stranger if you can touch them is creepy
Even if you know the person, touching someone without asking is wrong...consent is a thing
and if you have to ask someone you know if you can touch them...just weird
it's just a slippery situation
Her "Oh" and hands over her face at 7:28... I felt bad for her. She didnt want to get into the racism part of it. She was so relieve when he explained it lol.
She is so Gentle
8:44
I get her point. Why even ask that question?
I don't ask anyone what their preferences are because it's none of my business
and if I'm interested in them, I just ask them if they like ME. The rest doesn't matter
It's okay, i guess, that he likes south american girls, but who cares?
Why would you care unless you wanted to date him?
Or maybe set him up with someone on a blind date
This! This is the part people fail to understand. You should see some of these toxic folks in other people's livestreams or comment sections (especially on content released by Aduan-looking guys, these days). The same way it's racist, cringy and stemming from objectification to say things like "I want a Korean boyfriend " any and every time you think a Korean guy might be listening, it's not okay to shove your racial/ethno-cultural preferences (based on stereotypes rather than personal experience) into people's faces. It says a lot about how you'd treat anyone falling for you, when that's your mindset to begin with. Preferences may exist but they shouldn't be a barrier stopping us from seeing each individual in front of us for who they are rather than "what" they are.
I couldn’t handle that Korean girl's introduction 😅😅😅too cringe plus all the hip-hop stereotypes that she was doing nooo. I felt like she was over doing 😬but all in all at least they tried to bring a black person to talk about some of the stuff and all which is a step forward . She really did a good thing breaking down that generalizing thing and only talking about her family as every black person doesn't act the same.
Renee is so gorgeous. Such a pure, intelligent woman, I swear!
Aye yay yay. As a part black and part Asian person, this was kinda cingey to watch. I couldn't even finish it because of the stereotypes and misperceptions. It was kinda painful to watch and bless Renee for sticking it out but I think I did see some eye rolls in there.
It's crazy how outside of american culture especially black culture, other countries call us selfish and self centered, for telling them to know, learn and be respectful of our history and culture. But then shame america for not knowing and learning their culture and history 🤔 Make it make sense 😒
I really like how the guy is understanding with these things
Thank you for making this video! It was fun and educational for everyone 🥰🥰🥰
Renee is very patient and sounds so gentle 🥺i luv her
Renee is a Queen and she deserves an award for her patience and tolerance cause I don’t think I can do the same
Next time I think you should choose tik tok videos that are more recent and less stereotypical.. Also when the korean dude said his type is 'south american girls' As a colombian I hope he knows the country is very diverse w black,indigenous,white and even mixed latinos l in South America so for him to say that in a video about black people didn’t hit me right 😭
I agree I'm also south American (Guyanese) and this comment just rub me the wrong way I mean south Is a continents with 13 countries are multiple different cultures.
What is South American girl?
@@prieltheprune1302 South American girls are girls who live in South America aka Latin America. There are 13 different countries and they all have their own cultures n diversity 🙃
I've gotten the, "you talk white", my whole life. Recently, someone said, "It's giving me, 'Get Out' vibes." I don't watch scary movies, but apparently it has something to do with trying to turn black people white, or trying to sound "white". What's wrong with proper grammar? It shouldn't matter what skin color you are.
ikr, and a dude who said this to me wad ASIAN. like I guess you 'talk white' yourself since you're speaking english. Can't even see their own hypocrisy
At mark 7:35, they aren't the same things. There is a difference between cultural appropriation and a whole culture (race) being accused of acting as a white person when in reality we are just being ourselves within a predominantly white community/country such as the US. Being called an "Oreo" (black on the outside and white on the inside) is vastly different in this case. I felt that I had to say this as a black female who has experienced such growing up. I do enjoy this channel and I hope that many realities of many people of various ethnicities are able to be told in a real, genuine, and unembellished way.
Awesome world.

asking to touch someone else's hair is so strange to me, lol... i've never once felt the need to touch anyone's hair except my own and my kids when i have to brush it out for them. lol............. i did have an elderly women want to touch my hair back when i was a teen and had it dyed a teal color... she thought for sure it was a wig (i'm nearly 40 now, so having teal hair back then was deff not common) she looked like the stars just fell from heaven when i let her feel my hair, lol.... she probably would have taken me home just to keep petting my hair, lol

I am mixed and had a girl once ask to touch my hair. She was polite, afraid of offending. Girl clearly never knew how my hair felt she was like a baby touching something new. Did not get offended.
It depends.
I love the way she explained everything.
When he brought up that Asians are accused of trying to black for those certain things, my first thought was that's anybody that isn't black bro 😅. Because of those stereotypes. My second thought was that I can understand the copying things you like or all of a sudden changing your behavior to be like a genre of ppl. I get that it can annoy some ppl if wearing someone's culture is only a fun costume until it's inconvenient, but really as long as nobody is shaming, harming, or putting down that group of ppl who gives a fuck. Have fun enjoying the differences of one another. With that being said I have a confession to make....the picture of the Asian man with dreads scared me😅. Yes, I a black woman was shook. Only because the image popped up and took me by surprise. I didn't know what it was and when I realized I had a good laugh and I'm sorry. Idk how it happened.
I LOVED this episode. This toung beautiful lady is an amazing person!
1:13
they missed the best part, where the sibling is instigating the whoopin'
I feel like she could've explained things further like why you shouldn't use the n word and the history behind it, aswell as explain to them why some of the stereotypes they mentioned may be harmful, and maybe done that in Korean rather than English so korean speakers watching could understand and realize why some things are unacceptable but overall she did a good job
I agree, but to be fair, we don't know how much was edited out of the video.
Why would she need to speak in Korean? Korean subtitles are available on this video.
@@DeeVination well for one subtitles aren't always reliable and the guy and girl even admitted to not understanding some things she said, so just so everyones on the same page I would've spoken Korean, but I'm not condemning her for it just a suggestion
I honestly don't think they did because this channel doesn't have much of a Korean audience tbh. "Koreans react to" viewers are made up of mostly non-korean viewers because Korean's don't want/need to know how Koreans would react to certain things because they themselves are Korean...does that make sense? It's kind of my one gripe when it comes to these types of channels, because they're not really bring awareness to the Korean public at large, just the 2 to 4 people reacting to it. It's just a way they can pat themselves on the back and say they did a good thing without actually doing anything lol. One way to tell is by whether or not the actual video has Korean subtitles or just english. How are Koreans supposed to know what Renee says when she speaks in english? They aren't worried about that because their audience isn't Korean.
Sorry for going on this rant >.< i just think about this every time i see a "korean reacts to [insert race and/or racism]".

Renee is the best part of this video. It is so important that people of other cultures understand why you shouldn't treat a Black person any differently than you would someone of your own race
Don't know what this is but I can clearly see that the black girl is annoyed and this was really uncomfortable to watch as a black person. The comments are saying that she is patient and understanding but she had to act polite for the camera. Anyone can tell that she was annoyed and rightfully so
For some reason I feel like they were forcing compliments 💀this was so weird to watch…why tf did they put her in that uncomfortable position…bro I will always be weirded out by these kinds videos 🤷🏽♀️and why tf are they acting like she’s some kind of “special breed” or sum..taking about “they were shocked when they seen her” ….the obsession with us is crazy..
Girlie on the right was in that how you feel about black people video y’all rushed to delete instead of addressing the issue right? So no surprise she was acting like that in the first 30 secs
I guess I miss that video
See how when asked Abt black people they associate us with western stuff. Black is not just Abt hip hop and razz stuff. It's not also just Abt physical ability, mehn.
Wrost than ASKING you if they can touch your hair is directly touching without asking!!! Sometimes even after you said you don't like it. I understand you like my pretty hair that took mom hours to finalize but please keep your sweaty hands to your self!!! You shouldn't touch something just because it's pretty and at a hands reach!! You don't do that at the museum at least!
Trust me, we get tanned as well lol
Renee, you were so patient…I’m sorry for so much cringe, it was hard for me to watch as an Asian, I can’t imagine how frustrating it was to participate.
Ohhhhh Renee. You tried you tried 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I would love to see Renee back for future videos!!!
The fatigue that Renee must experience from constantly having to dispel ignorance. Stay strong sis.
I can't finish this video, all it did was enforce stereotypes. From the 1st four clips that were shown, I can already tell this is not an educational video. Really explain to me how black parents whooping their kids help Koreans learn anything about the black culture so that they might act more appropriately around black people? Especially the other girl, she saw these clips and doesn't understand what they mean, it's just entertaining to her. Black people will still be "hip-hop" "swag" and "yo" to her. Like c'mon, black mothers aren't the only ones that nag, but even still the guy took the video as the gestures she made? So when he speaks to a black person, I'm sure he's going to be doing the same gestures.🙄I'm just so annoyed, they make these videos for clout without actually having NY real educational intentions. Renee looks so uncomfortable like she has more to say butis biting her tongue. You can tell how she doesn't want them to generalize black people but she's forced to do so with the videos they're showing them and she has to explain how she understands the video which solidifies in their mind that all black people are the same
This was an absolutely horrible video. Who thought of this? There are so many stereotypes and I can see Renee being uncomfortable. This is truly disgusting.
I was not uncomfortable cause I’m used to it smh but I was definitely surprised that there are still grown adults out there who use social media 24/7 who don’t know you can’t say a racial slur, they would literally look up the meaning of any word BUT the one that is used towards black people🤦🏽♀️
I think it's best to ask questions and reading something in English if you don't fully understand English doesn't help. And let's not forget we got white rappers saying the n word and getting passes by black rappers they cool with so it becomes confusing. If black rappers stop using it in songs that horrible word wouldn't be global and we wouldn't have to keep having these conversations to people out side of America. No other race is walking around using there racial slurs amongst each other 🤦🏿♀️
@@juannifer32 That's why i dont really understand black americans. In africa, africans dont use the 'n' racial slur amongst each other or on theirselves. But black americans use 'n' racial slur on amongst each other and on themselves...so how can u be using a racial slur on yourselves and expect other races not to use it on you?? You re only showing them that you are not seeing d 'n' word as a racial slur and that you re comfortable woth it, since you re even using it on yourselves...so what do u expect other races to think? They would think d word is also good and using it on you too! Cos the 'n' racial slur word is such a bad word amd you are so discomforted with it then you wouldn't be using it on yourselves! I mean if its so bad then why would you be using it on yourselves?! It doesn't make any sense at all! cos i havent seen any race using the racial slur word, that other races are calling them, on their selves too..it doesn't make any sense. So if d word is so bad then ypu have to take the lead by stop using it on yourselves so that other races would follow suit and stop using it on you too. Its jus like a man and his family calling themselves 'goats' and expect outsiders not to call them goats too since you keep on calling yourself and your family goats. Does it make sense?? So black americans need to stop using that 'n' slur word on themselves whether in singing or in anything so that other races would stop using it on them so that the word word would die a global natural dead.
@@docsinchu2612 I agree I really dislike the person who decided to reclaim the n word and started using amongst ourselves it distasteful and ignorant and now we have this same word being repeated globally and it's out of control. We have to do better!
@@juannifer32 agreed. I feel like once black people stop using the n word, this issue of people from other races saying it will no longer be a thing.
Seungwoo is my spirit animal
COMMENT 130!!! Pweeze have them all react to some scenes from RUSH HOUR to kind of talk about stereotypes from both Asians and African Americans. I think it'll be eye opening for them!! Love your videos and love chuu guys!!
Wow I like this video because she talked about stereotypes... she is amazing .
Girl I can tell u being taken thru it...
7:01 why do I have my hair stuff in the exact same bin? 🤣 I didn’t even know that was a thing
yo I'm sorry but I can't stop laughing at renee's face at 5:18 to 5:22 XD LOL I'm dead hahaha
I can’t lie this video gave me the ick like the way they were acting and some comments really annoyed me. Was just me ??
Our beautiful Renee is usually so bubble and happy on these videos BUT today she was so subdued. I hope everything is okay. 🦚 Be blessed
The look the girls gave each other at 5:19 was painfully awkward
The way I had to pause the vid Bc I got second hand embarrassed thru the screen
Love how the guy understands a lot of it and also understands how some isnt funny in real life since black people experience some of those things (like people asking to touch their hair)
Renee is a trooper for sitting between the two of them and those ignorant comments lol. Especially the girl. So cringe 😬
And telling a black person they act white (usually in reference to speaking “pRoPeR eNgLisH and not meeting offensive expected stereotypes) is way different than telling a Korean wearing BLACK hairstyles and BLACK hip hop fashion or performing music and dance created by black people they are copying black ppl… they literally are…. smh.
