RE: Weekend Rant: There is No Such Thing as Cultural Appropriation
I still grind my teeth anytime rich Gangnam kids come out on rap reality shows.
I lived in Sinchon and some former contestants from Unpretty Rapstar were shooting some kind of funky looking dance video in front of my goshiwon. They were uncoordinated as fuck and I wanted them to get the fuck away so I could get some sleep (hence why i'll NEVER live in Seoul again).
I'm in Pyeongtaek now and it's SO much more peaceful here than in Seoul.
I don't have a problem with Koreans or other cultures appropriating black American culture. They'll have to bear the responsibility of the so-called backlash from others. The way I see it, if an American wants to be a K-pop star, so be it.
