I’ve seen a lot of Peruvian ARMYs battling on multiple fronts the last few days to have the guys welcomed as they deserve. I’m sorry to those of you who are doing your best to pushback against all this BS, we do see you :(
My solidarity with Peruvian ARMY who are suffering from the worst misogyny and even being attacked for going to see BTS. I’m appalled at the stories I’ve been reading. I hope everyone is able to enjoy the shows safely. Men are really intent on destroying anything beautiful…😒
🐨 “stop filming and look”
🐨 “this is precious time”
namjoon telling the person filming to pause his work because he wants them to enjoy the niagara falls together 🥺

Two months later, and Harvey Mason Jr. is STILL trying to do damage control for this category, and somehow, we're still not getting an answer to the most fundamental question: what the hell does Asian Pop even mean?
He talks about clearing up “misconceptions” surrounding the category. what misconceptions, exactly? can he PLEASE be specific? because the criticism has been very clear from the beginning. Asian is a continent, not a music genre. so why is pop music being defined and separated by geography in the first place? why is language being used as a criterion to distinguish an entire category of music?
and instead of addressing these very valid questions, we're being served another statement about representation, community engagement and how this is supposedly the right decision for the music community.
but representation for whom? because a category cannot claim to represent an entire continent when so many of the people it's supposedly representing do not feel represented by it. and when the biggest asian musician in the world has also expressed that this isn't how they want their music to be categorized, perhaps the problem isn't a lack of understanding among critics. perhaps the problem is the category itself.
you cannot manufacture a narrative of representation to justify segregation. you cannot put artists into geographical and linguistic boxes, separate them from the mainstream, and then expect everyone to celebrate it as progress.
i already know they'll continue pushing this narrative, and we'll see how the category unfolds in 2027. but two months later, harvey mason jr. still hasn't answered the question that matters most: why does asian need to be a genre-specific qualifier for pop music?
because asian is not a genre. and calling segregation representation does not make it any less segregation.

“I don’t keep photos of myself at home. Onstage, I’m constantly under countless watching eyes, always becoming ‘a face.’ But it’s the opposite at the museum - I’m the one who lingers looking at someone else’s face… Today, in this room, I am also just a person looking.”
- Namjoon
ARMY did it! We have donated $5,318.77 to @SFMOMA education fund for kids! We're still asking if folks can donate up to the general opening of RM's exhibit on Oct 3, but people can donate at any time. Thanks! Here's the link:
