i love how tzuyu said her skin was the color of healthy skin. we need idols to appreciate all skin tones not be disgusted by them. tzuyus so real for that
Exactly love how she loves her natural skin color and doesn’t bleach it which is permanent like every other.
But also she wanted to be like Daehyun.
It's true the more melanin u have the more healthy ur skin is. Its jealously and hate
i love that jeongyeon agreed with her
its sad because the idols cant say anything back because it will "ruin" their idol image:(
I think most of the situations they took it light heartedly, but some of them were just mean
Wow that was way more explicit that I could imagine, I love the fact that Tzuyu said that she's dark and like her healthy skin ❤
I appreciate how you explain what colorism is and why is something very common in idol culture, still wrong and unnecessary yet understandable as big part of the industry of entertainment and present in many many countries.
Tzuyu's answer and Sehun's face when Chanyeol asked.
Omg yessss. I saw his face. He was the only one that didn't laugh and looked uncomfortable
It's surprising because there are Groups who make fun of each other for being darker. I mean like I saw a video from THE BOYZ and there was a member who is also a bit darker and one member said that he and the members like him how he is and that his darker skin is actually pretty. THAT WAS SO CUTE. As an Asian I don't understand the problem from darker skin I even think it's prettier than looking like a ghost or smth
Cuz it comes from racism against blk people so anything that looks similar to us they hate so it comes off as colorism for Asians with darker skin
it's so funny to me how white girls in the west try so hard to get tanned, while asian girls in the east try so hard to lighten their skin
white race L
Use skincare and sunscreen, but also let yourself have some Vitamin D is all I’ll say.
As someone who’ Wasian, I can say I prefer the shade lol
it's always for the same reason, tan means being rich in the west because it means a person can afford getting a holiday. roughly a century ago there was the opposite phenomenon though, rich people could do jobs that didn't require staying outside so they didn't get tanned, while poor people had to do hard jobs outside so they got tanned. It's all about classism. Maybe one day the beauty standards will change in S.Korea too, but honestly anyone should be able to look however they want without people criticizing you.
The fact these kpop idols be getting those medicine injection to get whiter is funny to me, they even hate their normal tanned skin ☠️ (some idols) + what he means by" I thought he was Jamaican" bro better don't let Jamaicans see him in their country saying shit about them cuz it won't go well. These idols better get more education in their head and stop talking crap. As tzuyu say black is a healthy skin color no wonder I like that girl
Any natural skin color is healthy so yea. And if you watched the full video you would have heard that 99% of these clips were from the past so the skin color isn't much of an issue nowadays. Since they started opening up to the Western Market, Korea as kpop changed and adapted as well. Now, the borders and its seas were closed until 1876 BUT keep in mind the country only allowed some rich people to travel out of Korea up until 1989. So no, they didn't meet much, they stayed very closed and mostly saw Europeans and Asians during this times, still not enough for the country to focus on new beauty standards.
@@selenastratsukino7695 the, saying it in the past doesn't change the fact that they're racist and hate ppl with dark skin color, so what's ur point
It's funny how they mimic black artists but still poke fun/hate on them...like how the F are mimicking people you hate, make it make sense
@selenastratsukino7695 no they know it's wrong, stop down playing this shit cause you sound racist
if they say this about their own people imagine what they say about others with darker skin tones smh
Props to you for making a video about this important topic. A lot of people want to just pretend this isn't going on but it's never going to get better if we don't address it.
6:50 wow Sehun looked mad. Before that he looked more confused that his teammates were actually laughing along and he seemed to be the only one not laughing (not sure about those out of frame). I feel bad that Kai or others can't really get mad, because it's so typical for people to try to guilt trip the person for not finding the "joke" funny.
Good for the few twice girls for actually rejecting the comment, even if it made the situation a bit tense.
Sehun is such a sweetheart ❤
I think Kai was truly sensitive about those comments. Other idols might be ok with the joke, but Kai has always looked pretty uncomfy and it seems he has always considered his skin as a negative characteristic. Joking about someone else's body is so normalized and in their early career that was probably the only laughable flaw they could see in him, so it was brought up very often in all sorts of situations.
The Twice girls definitely handled it in the best way possible, you pretty much never see them making those types of jokes among themselves.
N being harrassed for his darker skin breaks my heart. I got into Vixx because of him and to see him treated this way makes my blood boil.
samee. I found out about him from bad and crazy (still my fav kdrama) and he's forever my bias, especially now ❤
@@kid-ava He was so good in bad and crazy!
I had to unstan them years ago because of it. It got so annoying and unpleasant because they never stopped doing it.
Love me some N though
They reflect the prejudices of their culture. Time to self reflect as a country.
I wish I could like this twice
They really need to get their eyes check if they think a little tan will cause them to think their members are shadows. I know they are joking, but it doesn’t make sense. Instead of getting plastic surgery, they need to see an ophthalmologist.
The irony is they got their style, dancing, rapping and persona from black culture. Was it hard for them to see those black artists they look up to as shadows?🧐
Preach!!!
This is Colorism not Racism brining up black People has honestly not alot to do with it. Colorism has been around in Asia since thousand of Years sadly enough
That comment Taeyeon made was insane…
taeyeon says this with all those injections
@@suzumi111 i've been side eyeing her since she said alicia keys looks pretty for a black women
Yeah she should have learned by now
she said that many times and that's really sad
I've been telling y'all ......she is ignorant and racist. Actions speaks louder than words
Just think......about what they actually think about black people behind closed doors or what they actually is be saying to their members when the cameras are off
Why they MUST think about black people?
they're hating on asians with dark skin, not black people. what does colorism have to do with racism HERE? at most they talk abt their skin tone BC OF THIS, not their entire existence bc of their race. having dark skin isn't all there is to the black race. now they could be saying anything abt anyone, we don't know anything. but THIS behavior/video isn't the right evidence. dark dirty tanned skin doesn't suit asians. but black people's skin aren't dirty, it's their natural skin, and it suits them.
@@Santia5a in the video they mentioned black people a few times😉 they compare it with skin of black people…
@@Santia5aThey literally compare their members to black people multiple times in this video alone, and koreans regularly make black people the butt of their unfunny jokes. So clearly, their obsession goes deeper. We see it all the time in variety shows and kdramas too 💓
Don’t act braindead on purpose.
bffr
Oh no N had it so tough😢
It's the fact that SM idols are repeat offenders. I can never look at Taeyong, Taemin, Key, DO, Chen, Chanyeol, Chenle, Jisung, Renjun, Jeno, Boa the same again. This stuff hurts and they should know by now that it makes a lot of their fans uncomfortable.
Before I forget, Taeyong didn't talked about Lucas's skin color. It was the lighting. That day I also thought that there wasn't enough light on Lucas, because I couldn't see him either.
I find it hard to comprehend how come these idols are ruined if they have a "dating scandal" or just a hint of a bullying scandal, even if it's not true, but offending and mistreating their own members for such a ridiculous thing as having a tan is not considered scandalous and inappropriate.
Welcome to the world where every country has diffrent cultures and histories that doesnt revolve around the western world, obviusly this comments where disgusting but some western people make it sound like omg how is this allowed? when this is the most normal thing in most asían countries, that doesnt mean is right tho
They're obsessed it's creepy
To be honest I personally think they stopped saying this on Camera because of negative Press
Unfortunately this is ingrained in their culture from a young age. They’re not purposely trying to be mean, it’s done in a joking manner. Especially being in the kpop industry, and Korea being a country with such extreme beauty standards, they’re constantly told that they need to be skinny, not be muscular, never get a tan, and be pale/fair skinned to be more attractive/beautiful/“fit the standard”.
Not an excuse I don’t give a fuck if it was ingrained it’s disgusting and colorist.
Don’t baby Korean ppl. What makes you think that they don’t mean it in a disrespectful way? People know when they are saying something mean, why else would the tan idols get upset?
I don't know what to say i can't defend SHINee they are seniors in the industry and Kibum knows English he knows its colorist and Taemin started rambling and Kibum joined him... Why Key? I know they are Korean and Kibum isn't American but they could seriously do better to avoid any controversy
Our taemin is not the brighest one but he came from ignorance
@@Maletearsasoilespecially as someone who debuted at 14, he internalized a lot of what is taught. However, it’s not an excuse and he has apologized. I hope they have learned from that especially working and getting close with black dancers and choreographers 😢
Minho's skin looks healthy. He l8kes sports and doing outdoor stuff so it's only natural. I also love that he embraces that tan. He is gorgeous
N had it soooo bad. Like they were ruthless with him. How they didnt get called out for bullying is beyond me.
I used to listen to Shinee but I am no longer a fan. Because their image is not how they really are, it's too fake and I do not like fake people.
Taemin is just dumb, love him but 😢
Wow the vixx videos were endless lmao
I do think thats kinda sad. Being darker tone means something bad. But of course i wld im darker tone! Lol... and probably lean towards the darker tone idols more... truthfully one reason i love minho! And Kai! And crazy. Even within my own ethnic culture...darker tones are looked down... and again i always wonder why? I love my tone wld never chng it kudos to idols of darker tones. Just as much it may be someone who teases... there are many like me out there who truly love it and just love you as a person!
Kai had it tough… Chanyeol literally had an obsession
Chanyeol was literally mocked for having a big ears and called names like "Yoda " or that circus elephant with big ear. In exo all of them tease each other
It seems like an obsession
It looks like an obsession because they only collected these footages
@@wuwuwu1757 yes, obsession is a double sided coin
I'm not surprised by the vixx one tbh, but damn it was still disappointing and rough. "you looked jamaican", really jaehwan? jamaica is a pretty diverse place, but I can guarantee most people there are much darker than hakyeon 😭😭 and alot of the shit coming from hongbin too...maybe it's not bad that he aint in the group anymore 🤷🏽♀️. I'm glad tzuyu and the other twice members in that clip were combating the colorism a little though, it was really nice to see
I feel really bad for kai and hakyeon tho, they just looked so done with all the nonsense..
I love light skin, like Suga, his skin is so beautiful its almost ethereal. I love darker skin it looks so silky smooth and warm. I prefer dark because its Korea, they are Korean. They should not be mocked for having one of the many beautiful skin tones that comes with being born Asian. I'm honestly jealous.
I always wanted darker skin. But being a nordic redhead that's an impossibility. So I admire from afar.
I've always had this androgynous look, but in my case it was fuel for bullies when I was growing up. I embraced it, used it to my advantage in my acting / modeling career, I was almost the face of Leon in these new Resident Evil games 🙂
To anyone who's ever been a victim of hate / violence because of their appearance, gender, orientation, race : DO NOT ever let a hateful notion 'there's something wrong with me' sink in. Trust me, it's a recipe for self hatred and compulsive anxieties later on. When we suffer and we need a break, it's only natural to think: 'maybe if I wasn't 'different', if I was 'normal' I would be accepted. No, haters will always find something else to prey upon. They're extremely toxic who can see your potential and value but will drag you down with intent and hideus determination, when they notice a slightest sign of insecurity. Remember; There's never anything wrong with you.
I needed this reminder especially today. Cheers to your continued success. I'm making efforts to change my mindset and keep those negative comments from sinking in.
@@fishstixx9737 Thanks for the reply. Best of luck on with your efforts to change.
anyone who has an androgynous body figure i always envy bc i love that look. 😭😭
I'm not a native English speaker so can anyone explain what's androgynous?
@@jaywhypapi_supremacy androgynous just means both feminine (girl) and masculine (boy). a good way to put it in a sentence could be to say “this girl has very androgynous looks.”
Hwasa has the most beautiful and exotic look. She embraces her looks and body which should make her an inspiration to many idols.
I would like to scream at them and tell them that at least in the screan next to him, Kai looks just 1 shade darker and still he is in the light skin spectrum.
I know this culture but If people dare to said that I will cut that so it would not become an inside joke.
It's ironic to me, because the members who are always making those comments I think are one of the least visually attractive members in their respective groups. To each their own though lol
All of them are absolutely disgusting for their remarks.
Tbh I know that they don't mean anything bad about these racial "jokes", I still get sad, because they think that it's okay to say these things. Like the one time when BTS's RM and, I think Jin, made a joke about Christianity when V talked about his angel he hears sometimes. I know that RM is a Atheist and the rest of BTS are non religious, it sometimes hurt and you just have to laugh and smile as a fan, because you feel like you will disappoint them if you don't. By the way I'm no longer ARMY. Not because of BTS, but because of the fandom's toxicity.
Hey , I’m a little late but I feel you. I’m Christian and I loved bts( like a lot , like I watched them everyday) and it hurts me when they make fun of other people’s religion like this. Bts was my home , my family when I was in a very deep depression. But I saw the video arm make fun of v and j’hope dark skin I felt hurt cause I’m brown. Bts didn’t felt like home anymore . Even though they didn’t made fun of me directly they still made fun of someone else’s skin just because it was darker. So I stopped stanning them. But now I’ve grown up , I realise that Koreans are obsessed with fair skin. So maybe for them it was just “ normal” to make fun of dark skin tones. I’m sure they realized their mistake and won’t do it again , at least not on camera lol . And back to the religion part, well honestly people who are non religious can not understand that religion is very important for people who are religious. They just think it’s some sort of tradition or something. So they think it’s okay to make fun. But the most important part is when your friend or someone makes fun of something that is important to you, you just tell ‘‘em to stop. And if they don’t then you should block them. And also , idols are human , they def are full of flaws like everyone. If they said something offensive then they should be scolded ( a little not canceled 😂) you don’t have to laugh with them if u think it’s offensive.
when they did it?
Still makes me mad whenever I see that clip of Minho. If his friends can say that in public I don't even want to imagine the jokes they throw around when they are not in public
Jesuscry tzuyu is literally the prettiest looking like a model and have the best skin like Jihyo needs to get humbled she looks mid at best
One thing i love your videos i cant stop watching them cause they are so good so please dont give up making these videos and keep making them till you cant i love your videos just so much thank you for making them❤❤❤❤
I'm still recovering from the fact that Kpop Corn uploaded haha
it is funny how they say they couldn't see them because they were too dark. Lol people cannot change it they are born like that
Not that I didn't know that people in Kmedia are racist, but RM calling V and JHope dark when he himself has the same complexion is so bigoted. Disappointed in all of them.
Key and Taemin apologized multiple times, on various platforms. Instead of focusing on the idols, perhaps it would be best to focus on the Korean culture that perpetuates this ignorance.
You guys are so annoying always defending Korean colorism and racism. We’re gonna call them out no matter what we’re gonna always call them out so stop being weird and trying to unfocus their colorism☠️
6:46 one time in grade 6 this other light skinned kid told an very dark kid that he wanted to whiten him 😥
Fact I am darker then the darkest members
Soy negra y la verdad no me tome nada de esto personal, además en su gran mayoría son videos hasta de 9 años atrás, la gente tiene derecho a madurar y cambiar de pensamiento, hay mucha gente le dice chinos a cualquier asiático, porque es algo que está arraigado en la sociedad, muchos los llaman así de manera despectiva aún sabiendo la nacionalidad de la persona, otros simplemente están acostumbrados y no lo hacen con motivos de racismo sino desde la ignorancia, simplemente aprendí a no tomarme todo tan personal y dejar de crucificar a todo el mundo de manera tan fácil, al final del día talves no cometemos esos errores pero si cometemos otros o decimos estupideces sin pensar y esta bien también aprender de ello e intentar ser mejor persona.
Ouch my heart aches
I am actually Black and live in the United States. It is sad that Taemin and key behaved this way...But, they did apologize in public,,,even if it was only by letter. I don't think they are cruel people. It is the same with Blacks Americans, Indians, Philipino, Arabs, Africans. Colorism is very hurtful. I see Kai's face and he is insulted a lot by his own members. He is Taemin's best friend. I hope Taemin is sincere. All of these K pop peoples life dance and music is from us. Black people. they should give us credit. Micheal jackson is the king of Pop and K pop. Too bad, he is not around to see it. I think their colorist remarks may have been offensive to him. He would have spoken up. For sure. But, I forgive Shinee, Minho as made colorism remarks, too. I think they are kind people who needed a wake up call!!!!!
Of course, Chanyeol, Xiumin and D.O.s flop butts come for iconic Kai. Kai is STILL very popular and does numbers and Chanyeol is still struggling to break out on his own. He doesn't have the range or presence. This has only taught me that they wish they had darker skin and resent having to conform so they bully Kai about it. It's so sad.
Some times I wonder how they would feel about me a black person
Ik im late but korean ppl in general say the n-word often.
Wait so dark skin in Korea its tan skin(just askimg )?!!
(not an excuse) but when taemin called key a black boy i thought he was talking about his hair?? cuz it was permed
lol this is such a "look guys they did it too so what if shinee did it rn these idols did it too guys!!!!!"
I don't think so, it's more like "it's a cultural problem that happens less often but still happens".
@@piusonos the point is that making a video like this is weird. instead of focusing on what they did now we're focusing about what other idols did years ago. it feels like deflecting
@@PurpleMoon799true, especially when back in the days this issue didn't have a name. Now that it does, it kinda seems like ill intended to point it out so late + the "drew him in black face" while it's not, they just "drew him totally black to accentuate the skin tone difference" ,as a "joke" again like all these clips, mostly teasing because it was like this before. Blackface is racist and a mockery of black ppl, it's not the case here, nothing racist was said toward black people nor nothing harmful was said so eh. The video is using the term in the wrong context, which can cause issues even if they say "not to send hate to any idols", we know how 13 yo tiktok kids acts on the internet and on Twitter. They gonna bully the shit out of these idols, even if it was in the past.
Nice to see y’all being hot down there even when shineee are literally the first idol who sincerely apologized and even said they will reflect shinee is also the least problematic group jonghyun was such an open minded and human rights activist kinda individual he spread a lot of information against hating differences in people on Twitter like the other idols are hated cause nooo open ur eyes they never even properly apologized and change well that’s never happening to them but taemin and key and shinee represent change they always changed and became better even though taemin was literally 13 when he was admitted to sm like since he was a kid he was in front of cameras so of course it took a lot of learning to be who he is also they said it to Minho who didn’t seem to be offended like they have been together for 15 years these kind of jokes are common instead of being ignorant like ur faves at least they sincerely apologized on all platforms and even on their bubble etc so stop coming for a bone that doesn’t exist lol if u talk about it I am Asian all Asia is pretty much in love with Whiter color and no body wishes to be darker it’s cultural so who is to blame really ?
@@sajjadali-taeminsteppedony8434 i ain't reading all that im happy for u tho of sorry that happened
Key wtf😂
Im white and im way darker than them like tf lol
It's no news that white fair skin is wanted in kpop. It always had been a problem.
Tbh, I find it strange why people would criticize one culture’s beauty standard..Pale, smooth and blemish-free skin is prized in a lot of countries, but darker, tan skin is also prized in others. How come I don’t hear about people saying Americans or Australians are colorist for preferring tan skin and going out of their way to get a tan? People find different things beautiful. I think it’s kind of arrogant to think there is a need to educate another culture about what’s appropriate according to your culture. Just let them be themselves
I agree but disagree with this. Beauty standards in general sucks. Being to tan and having a slim waist and hourglass body sucks. Being skinny and too light sucks. It implies that those who do not fit these standards that they are not enough to be considered conventionally attractive. Not that anyone can fix this. But it is a general problem around the world. Even in africa, skin bleaching and having a risk of cancer is bad. We don't need to conform. We need to accept.
@@girlonline9038 I don’t know. For me at least, complaining that the beauty standards is too restrictive or too toxic implies a desire to conform in some way. If you don’t care about the beauty standards, regardless of what they may be, it shouldn’t bother you so much. I think different people find beauty in different things. Even within a set culture, there would be people who don’t find the things that others do attractive.
Also, to be frank, unless you have most or all of it, I don’t think it really matters that much. I mean, so what if you have darker skin, you could still be attractive like Kai or Haechan or Minho.
@@dianrongyu1326are you okay in the head? Their literally insulting people who actually have brown skin and calling black people ugly☠️ and you’re excuse is “it’s their culture🤓”
@@souichi7910not all raised with black people, and not all think they are beautiful.
The problem isn’t them having a preference for lighter skin it’s them talking shit about others skin that’s a little darker. I don’t care what skin color you prefer just don’t be disrespectful.
Joking about someone getting tan is not the same thing as making fun of someone for having naturally darker skin. People call everything racist nowadays.
Can you please explain what you mean, I'm kinda confused
They're saying it's colorist because they're making fun of idols for having a darker skin tone, having a darker skin tone is mainly seen as ugly compared to people with lighter skin tones. Racism and colorism are 2 different things, hope this clears things up
Also the part with Xiumin he even complimented Kai’s dark skin. How is that even colorism?
Obviously it aint racist, cos they're making fun of eachother instead of making fun of another group of people. 🤷🏾♀️👏🏾
Oh my god Shinee were talking about tan, not making 'colourist' remarks ffs, they weren't offensive here like other groups
They literally said that they can't see him in the dark coz of his tan i.e dark skin tone- so yh it was a colourist remark. 🤷♀
They literally apologized and promised to be better what else u want which is something ur faves have never done (apology is most uncommon in Kpop in case of colorism cases )
it's the "i just can see your eyes and teeth in the night" comment that very offensive to dark skin people
lol whether they apologised or not is besides the point. The original post said that it wasn't a colourist remark, and i simply stated that it was. Simple.@@sajjadali-taeminsteppedony8434
It's a tan though...it's not like they were making fun of his normal usual skin color. everything is racist to everyone these days
Y'all getting mad over 3 boys who literally grew up together joking around and poking fun at each other is embarrassing. Don't any of you have siblings because mine said way more offensive jokes than just "ah you got tanner". Minho wasn't even mad. I'm convinced y'all are really trying to find a reason to cancel everyone because of your savior complex and it's not helping anyone. Literally everything is racist these days....
GROW UPP bro
