Jeon-neung-ha-da has an extremely positive meaning, it means โalmighty, all-powerful,โ most commonly in reference to God. They are laughing because while trying to compliment Haechan, Jaemin accidentally misspoke and insulted him.
If you look at the full context of the clip, Haechan asks Jaemin for his closing thoughts, and Jaemin basically says โIt was an honor to be on the amazing Haechanโs show.โ In that context, would it really make sense for him to throw an insult in there?
okay so this is going to be a super long thread but PLEASE bear with me- I know I don't have nearly as many followers as op but I just want to put out my thoughts as well.
So Iโm sure a lot of ppl have already seen this thread- and Iโll admit at first I was super concerned also
I-fans make me embarrassed.. if ur gonna make an argument and accusation and say that what Jaemin said was straight up ableist, be ingrained into the Korean culture first and understand the word in context. This why learning Korean can be so important.
I dont think people understand how important languages are until youre like me who knows 3 of them. You understand that direct translation is most times straight up impossible without the connotation and the situation and just SO MANY other factors.
this whole nc* dr*am jaemin situation is honestly a reason why international fans should learn Korean.......... Korean is not gonna be a clean-cut language, ESPECIALLY IF YOU DONT UNDERSTAND IT... there are so many puns, so many words that sound so similiar.
Korean and English are two totally different languages. The word Jaemin used, from what I had read from a Korean who was not a nct stan, meant LITERAL what it means to be the r word. DOES THIS MEAN THE SAME CONNOTATION as the word in English? Most likely no???
Jae probably did say that word, buuuuuuut- we as international fans donโt understand the context, most likely. We just see some rando on twt explain him as saying an ableist word and run with it. NOW- do we know that he is saying straight up the r word? Probably not??
I swear everyday nctzens gotta clear the searches for tyong lol Do antis not get tired??? Yโall ainโt got nothing else to do but bring up someoneโs old past? Smh
im so glad my sister has FINALLY been able to get into NCT (sheโs been listening to em since debut yet was never dedicated to stanning)!!! NOW we can cry over johnnyAbs
