1. [+8,404, -793] He has a history of slanting his eyes, he tagged the post service amongst 'teakpop', he wrote inwards English linguistic communication that Koreans are ignorant, too posted a moving painting of small-scale kids to brand a mockery out of them all over the world. And yous actually intend he is non at all at fault? Is this journalist a dark supremacist?

2. [+4,745, -392] Journalist, who are you? I empathize telling people to observe dissimilar opinions too to live to a greater extent than considerate but to simply come upwardly out too blatantly state he has no error at all? I don't empathize how yous tin give notice simply come upwardly out amongst a judgment all past times yourself similar he's 100% non at error at all? Pressian? Whatever this outlet is, I'll live canceling my subscription because I don't relate to your persuasion at all.

3. [+2,959, -442] One thing's for sure, Koreans definitely receive got learned that blackface is a taboo subject. Congratulations, Sam Okyere. However, because of your arrogant too anti-Korean mental attitude inwards the process, yous volition non live able to brand coin inwards Korea again.

4. [+2,069, -116] I tin give notice experience that Sam Okyere's means is trying to stress that "blackface" is the root of the resultant here. But let's pose it into to a greater extent than or less other perspective. What if a Korean human being became a celebrity inwards to a greater extent than or less European province but high schoolhouse students of that province were works life cosplaying the rise Sun flag. How could that celebrity receive got handled it? Perhaps past times writing on SNS, "I'm certain Europeans aren't familiar amongst the history of the rise Sun flag but it's akin to the Nazi swastika, thus delight practise non purpose it." A post service of that fashion would've focused the dependent area on educating the public. Instead, Sam mocked Koreans inwards English linguistic communication too hashtagged what he did. What was he trying to do?

5. [+653, -23] I empathize that blackface is incorrect too that it made Okyere uncomfortable. Okyere's post service inwards Korean was fine. However, the argue he's getting abhor correct similar a shot is non because of his remarks on the resultant of blackface, but because he called Koreans ignorant too racist, too tagged 'teakpop' when it was irrelevant to the resultant simply thus he could acquire international attending on the matter. I could experience his malicious intention to disclose this event of blackface internationally. 'teakpop' or 'kpop', what ask was at that spot to purpose those hashtags at all? Okyere was successful amongst his intention. A lot of foreigners are similar a shot hating on Korea on Twitter, too fifty-fifty Koreans are joining inwards on that hate. It makes me angry that Okyere's intention was successful.

6. [+590, -10] It's obvious what his intentions were amongst 'teakpop' but he's "not at fault"??? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+444, -10] How are nosotros supposed to translate Okyere posting a moving painting of high schoolhouse students without their consent, tagging it inwards a K-Pop gossip hashtag, too calling Koreans ignorant inwards English linguistic communication then?

8. [+421, -15] How tin give notice yous aspect Koreans too Americans to live the same when Americans receive got experienced a deep-rooted history of racism too Koreans receive got been a monoethnic province all our lives? Our environments are completely dissimilar thus to aspect Korean students to live aware of an American surround too thus calling all of Koreans ignorant? If Okyere's intentions were purely to prepare Koreans, thus he should've written his post service inwards English linguistic communication equally it was inwards Korean, past times pointing out what was incorrect too aiming to educate. Instead, he called all Koreans ignorant, tagged 'teakpop', too posted amongst the intention to acquire Koreans criticized internationally. All of this is thus blatant too you're actually trying to state Okyere is non at fault? What human relationship does the journalist receive got amongst Okyere?

9. [+385, -14] The journalist does non acquire it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ no 1 is tilt whether blackface is racist or not, yous fool. What people are criticizing is that he took a moving painting of high schoolhouse students who had no thought what blackface was too posted it on his SNS too made Koreans out to aspect similar racist devils to his international audience. He dishonored our province past times putting downward our instruction too tagged an irrelevant K-Pop tag amongst malicious intent.

10. [+128, -3] Journalist, your ignorance is non your error at all

11. [+105, -2] What virtually when Black people were assaulting Asians? When an Asian grandmother was blasted amongst manus sanitizer too told to screw off? There are tidings of Black people harassing Asians inwards the tidings but has Sam Okyere always posted it on his Instagram too talked virtually educating them too?

12. [+24, -0] Is the journalist crazy? Why no elevate of Sam Okyere slanting his eyes? And for reference, teakpop is a tag used past times people who observe our province disgusting, who claim they would never become to a BTS concert fifty-fifty if given tickets for free, who telephone telephone Koreans racist... He tagged that too he is nonetheless non at fault??? Journalist, what province are yous from? I turn down to forgive somebody who humiliated our province worldwide too refuses to accept responsibleness for it later posting a Korean apology sum of nil but excuses for himself.
