To all the decent Italians out there, I know these people do NOT represent all Italians.
This group of Italian tourists was being loud and disruptive on public transport. When they realized they were being filmed, instead of behaving better, they responded by:
- Saying, “Sorry for bringing money to your country” as if spending money gives them the right to disrespect the country they’re visiting
- Making a slant-eye gesture to mock Asians
- Giving the person filming them the middle finger
Tourism is not a free pass for racism, arrogance, or disrespect. If you travel to another country, respect its people. It’s really that simple.
Director Park Si-young:
“Oh, now that you mention it, I wonder if this will make the news too? Please let it get covered. I’m disgusted by the way HYBE, a major corporation in the K-pop industry, conducts itself. If you’ve taken years of these minors’ lives under the guise of “training”… seriously, what kind of adult does that? Bunch of pathetic losers. If you’re making money off kids and building a business around them, then at the very least, act like responsible adults. They’re so embarrassing.
You’re going to “set an example” for the entertainment industry by crushing people with money and lawsuits? Give me a break. I don’t give a damn about Min Hee-jin or Bang Si-hyuk. But targeting one young person and trying to destroy them, how is that justice? It’s so unbelievably idiotic. There should be a limit. HYBE is seriously disgusting. I hope this gets as much media coverage as possible! Bunch of fools who can’t even act like adults.”
Director Park Si-young’s HYBE/ADOR shade:
“Damn it. I heard NewJeans dropped something new, so I went to check it out the moment I opened my eyes. Damn, it’s so freaking tacky. What kind of aesthetic is this? It’s not even the Gayo Top 10 era anymore…
A bunch of talentless people just pulled up a chair to the table and scraped every last bit off someone else’s work.
Four-member NewJeans? What the hell is that? It’s like Attack on Titan without the Titans.
The original sin was a talentless loser with nothing but an oversized ego starting a company and somehow landing massive investment.”
Remember, it's five or none!
Supporting NewJeans doesn't mean supporting Ador or what they're doing with them. Supporting them means respecting their wish not to be treated as products, which we do by supporting content made against their will.
