This project album was made to celebrate their 10th debut anniversary.
They had 4 days of music shows promotions + 3 days of Korean concerts + variety show appearances, and an Asia tour planned. Today was their last concert in Seoul.
-Why are they crying? Is it because they're so happy to reunite for a concert?
-Why are they crying?
-Is this their last concert?
-Maybe they're crying because they reunited after a long time for their 10th debut anniversary and they don't know when they'll reunite again after this... Oh Godㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-Isn't this a reunion? Or is this just a one-time event?
-Does anyone know what happened before they cried?
ㄴIt's their last concert today. They don't know when they'll able to promote as a full group again.
-Ah... So this isn't a reunion?
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I didn't know this wasn't a reunion.
-They didn't even get to meet their fans properly before disbanding because of the pandemic. So this must feels like a real ending for themㅠㅠ
-ㅠㅠ They could've done so much more as a group, but the company shut down for a new business so they're practically disbandingㅠㅠ
-ㅠㅠㅠ Honestly, wasn't the concert venue too small?ㅠㅠ I wanted to go too...
-Don't f*cking leave...ㅠㅠ
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I really hope HYBE goes bankrupt
-I was so happy for the past 3 days!!!!!!! I hope the rest of the tour goes well and we can meet again soon!!! I love you, GFRIEND!!!
It's rude to touch someone's hair without permission, and asking a non-white person with blonde hair if it's their really hair is a classic example of a racist remark.
Additionally, when Jennie posed for a photo with Qualley in a way that seemed like she was about to kiss her, Qualley was caught on camera pulling away her face, further fueling the controversy. Jennie awkwardly laughed it off.
Many netizens reacted by saying, "They think that if a person of color dyes their hair blonde, they want to be white," "When white people ask that kind of question, it means 'You're Asian, why do you have blonde hair like a white person?' It's definitely racist," and "You might think she was just asking if it was a wig, but considering that the actress has kissed other people in photos, it's clear that her statement was racist."
There were people defending her, saying she was just curious if it was a real wig, but if she did that to a Black person, she would get canceled right away.
-Because of this, I can't see her in a positive light.
-Ah... So this was her..............
-She wasn't even asking, 'Did you bleach your hair?' or 'Did you change your hairstyle?'. She was straight up asking 'Is this your real hair?'. That's definitely racist.
-She played a crazy woman in the movie, and she's actually crazy in real life too. Perfect casting.
-This is why I didn’t watch that movie... It makes me uncomfortable and I couldn’t bring myself to watch anything with her in it.
-Rude and ignorant.
-Touching someone else's hair is extremely rude.
-That's definitely racism. It’s a subtle, roundabout way to insult someone, like Kyoto-style passive-aggressiveness.
-This is clearly racism... It's not even ambiguous.
-I wouldn't like it if someone tried to kiss me either.
-I'm not sure about the kiss, but touching someone's hair is something Black people often complain about on Twitter. They say that White people often do that while asking if their hair is real or just a wig in a very rude way.
-Even international fans agree that it's racist, but Koreans insist it isn’tㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Whoa... That was her?? We might be less sensitive to racism, but this caused a huge uproar overseas.
-Who just walks up and asks, 'Is this your real hair?'ㅋㅋㅋㅋ That is so freaking rude. She's only doing that because Jennie is Asian.
