y’all don’t realize that running with the mistranslation post is hurting people who live in this city. the fact that it was cleared up and y’all still decide to run with the wrong story like?? you’re making people here think the boys hate chicago. i hope they see this bc it’s sad
as we know, discrimination isn’t always obvious.. it can be subtle, systemic, or unintentional. so i understand why people reacted strongly to this, but here is the full transcript, so everyone can judge for themselves with proper context:
🐶 there are so many people like that, you know. this morning, you guys went to get breakfast, but couldn’t even place an order for a long time. i had gone to wash up, so i came down like 10 or 15 minutes later, but our food came out first, my breakfast came first ㅋㅋㅋ
🦦🐱 ah, ah..! that one!
🧸🐶 what happened?
🐱 they didn’t come over
🐶 but you had called them though?
🦦 we called them, but they told us to wait, a ‘please wait a moment’ kind of thing, then they went around taking all the other tables’ orders (🐱 that's right) they came back, poured us some water, and when we said we’d like to order, they told us ‘please wait’ again and just left.
🐈⬛ isn’t this kind of discrimination?
🐶 no, it’s not that. there are different people, different staff members, you know. like, when you go to restaurants, usually, there are people who serve water and take beverage orders, and then there are others who are in charge of taking food orders
🐈⬛ aaah~
🐱 yeah, so we tried with that person, but they were busy handling other tables. and it was actually a different person, not them, who ended up taking jaehyun’s order. so it turns out that the one who told us to wait was actually busy, and the one who took jaehyun’s order was someone else entirely.
@SnowyRose14_ yes, exactly! it just sucks being from here and having some fans say how much they hated chicago and how they’ll never some back. did they tell them lol?? it’s disheartening but i hope they at least will look back on their time here warmly.
@SnowyRose14_ they’ve gone thru some crazy stuff while in chi, but some fans are going overboard just trashing the city and saying how they hope they never come back. like?? how do you think it makes us, who live here, feel. it’s not a bad city and i hope they took some good memories w/them
@lesbbihan at this point i don’t even want them doing shit over here because we’re the ones that get the short end of the stick even though they’re in our country :(
@taesancentral i may be in the wrong but when they do things over here it should be exclusive to the u.s. kfans get to see them and interact with them basically the whole year, there’s no need for them to be coming over here too and taking spots from fans that rarely get to see them.
@momolovelys yeah, i also heard that they were filming around in the suburbs. don’t know if that’s true but it’s a shame that some of the choreo got leaked, i think it came from someone who didn’t know who they were but still.
@otter_bbychick riwoo actually said when they first got here that they’ll go straight to japan after the states and before heading back home, i think they’ll leave this week so they can start activities in japan for their comeback
@sanludios maybe them too then?? idk but i saw pics from a chicago photographer of boynextdoor and they’re downtown filming a mv right now. they have a whole street blocked off and everything.
