And let's not act like BM is going to tell them because I would be 100% shocked if he doesn't use it casually himself.

[giriboy.livejournal.com]

seeing as his bro said it (https://twitter.com/CHOWKlNG/status/860184156537573377) congratulating him on debut, i would be too

*Grabs popcorn*

They're gonna fall so hard from that pedestal.

Moral of the story. No fave is safe.

twitter OP says it happens at 0:57 & 2:01


yikes at BM's brother

[stephantasm.livejournal.com]

his name is fucking "Big Matthew"?

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

I did too tbh

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

OH

[happydirections.livejournal.com]

why y'all gotta do me like this???

edit: i was already sure that j.seph censored himself but was doubtful about jiwon. i heard it again but slowed down a bit and now i'm not sure if she actually said it.

[thomaswilmoore.livejournal.com]

i'm not black nor american so i wouldn't know how this would affect me otherwise, i just feel they're so ignorant for having an american member who doesn't call out on stuff like this. they're so huge overseas, they should be more aware of what's offensive or not to say. shame on them.

[xlovexlessxtyx.livejournal.com]

As a black american who enjoys a little bit of korean music, it's frustrating to see people do this. It's more frustrating that there are almost never consequences for this.

'Oppa didn't mean it.' -_-

[xlovexlessxtyx.livejournal.com]

Welp. I was happy for their success but I never took the time to get into their music. Best of luck to them and Mamamoo and Got7 and all the other groups who have members who freely use that word. Intentional or not, as much as idols LOVE black-american music and culture, there's no way they don't know that saying it is fucking stupid.

Re: 'Oppa didn't mean it.' -_-

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

I agree... there have been so many callouts there's no way they don't know it's offensive.

[holywells.livejournal.com]

y i k e s....im upset but im still going to drop them fast for this

[beast-jjang.livejournal.com]

why drop them before they respond to everyone's criticisms? if they ignore people's concerns, have a horrible apology like mamamoo, or do it again - i would also drop them. but how is anyone in society supposed to learn what's problematic if you don't let them correct it...?
your icon indicates you like BTS but at least 3 members said the n-word in the past that i know of... they've definitely seemed to take people's criticisms & learned from it.

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

maybe if they had more than three basic ass songs they could've saved themselves from this

[boxcuttergirl.livejournal.com]

mte

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

OH they about to get their feelings hurt this morning.
It's 5:43 so let's see how long it takes them to address it today.
It's not hard, just don't say it shit. I know all the artist they idolize say it day in and day out, so what.

[xlovexlessxtyx.livejournal.com]

Netflix's latest series (Dear White People) has a really great scene about why non-black people shouldn't say this.

[stephantasm.livejournal.com]

IDK how this group got super-stans with basically no music and weak ass-popping... also I need like some type of "I'm black btw" from anybody who relishes in these types of posts. Antiblackness really isn't funny.

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

I was really surprised with their 'fame' here and other forums/social networks cause their music is so bad for me
but then again, different strokes for diff folks lol

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

I need the popcorn gif lol

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

edit: changing my comment just to add all Kard manager clarification


and that twitter user apology for spreading fake rumours




beside jiwoo & jseph apologized about causing this misunderstanding on their chicago fanmeet, just 12 after original tweet

J.Seph and Jiwoo just now personally apologized for the misunderstanding of the BBHMM lyrics #WildKardInChicago (https://twitter.com/hashtag/WildKardInChicago?src=hash) pic.twitter.com/Rv3Ud5uWMK (https://t.co/Rv3Ud5uWMK)

nice scandal, now let's move on

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

the fans are playing all sorts of mental gymnastics on twitter

im so disappointed tbh
im the most surprised that it wasnt bm first. i mean his brother said it and his captions on instagram are so cringeworthy/embarrassing, he dabs non ironically etc.

[glokmusic.livejournal.com]

I knew they were too good to be true. There are people who were at the concert who said they didn't but honestly I'm not taking sides. It's wrong to say it and I'm so tired of idols constantly being racist and not learning like their heads aren't up their asses I'm sure they see the reactions to it, especially recently. I bet BM was one of those "hood Asian" kids in school ugh they're just as bad.

[dynamite-state.livejournal.com]

The Brazil pandering proved to be a good investment considering how south this North American expedition just went.

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

plus I think latin american fans- at least most I've seen are the less informed people about cultural insensitivity.
The amount of 'oppa didn't mean it' I see everywhere is just.... just today I saw a friend from my country fly all the way to Korea to welcome Kim Hyun Joong back :/

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

I was gonna ask how to get the KARD tag blocked yesterday in their airport post, because I got bad vibes seeing them so many times. Turns out it wasn't me joking at all. Yikes.

It's no loss to me, I don't follow them, but apparently this isn't shocking to people who are fans? Have they done this before?

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

I think they just expect this from any kpop artist so no one is surprised at the end from how many times it already happened.

[by-venoms-sting.livejournal.com]

It was only a matter of time.

I have such low expectations so my reaction was something close to "Of course they did".

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

damn they fucked up

didn't know one of them is american, this could have been avoided so easily

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

idk how to link a tweet but apparently bms brother changed the caption and is now telling people to get a life

https://twitter.com/MeowItsGreta/status/860208504077987840

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

He needs to turn on his location. Me and my friends just wanna talk.

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

Disappointed but not surprised, etc

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

OP you should have included other fancams as well, not just one single tweet.

KARD did NOT say the N word! They both censored themselves . Put in your headphones. I slowed it down too! pic.twitter.com/OinpSlB6M1 (https://t.co/OinpSlB6M1)

— KMusicAndBlackWomen (@kmusicblckwomen) May 4, 2017 (https://twitter.com/kmusicblckwomen/status/860217910387765248)

many people have said that they do NOT hear the n-word. also i haven't seen a single account of someone who was at the concert and has heard it, and its been like 24 hours. do you really think the crowd would still be all wohooo after someone dropped the n-word? they're in canada and not korea.

also, just because BM's friend said the word on social media doesn't mean that he would do it too. so far he hasn't fucked up, we don't know if he's actually educated and so on. don't jump at people before they make any mistakes. way to generalize someone.

you know, like, maybe we should wait for official accounts from people who were there in person and not judge them based on a fancam with LQ audio.

[stephantasm.livejournal.com]

Stop.

[yourethesky.livejournal.com]

really hope they apologize asap and actually learn from this. even if he wasn't part of it, bm should really be held responsible too, there's literally no excuse for him not to know. at this point i really don't see how ANYONE could not know. and this has happened before WITH THIS SONG with 9muses erin. sigh.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

Erin was my favorite before that, too.

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

OKAY Two people who attended Kards fanmeet Last night WHO ACTUALLY HEARD AND SAW FROM UP CLOSE statement on Jiwoos and Jseph BBHM pic.twitter.com/lDky9IMnQy (https://t.co/lDky9IMnQy)

[stephantasm.livejournal.com]

this same dumbass thinks it'd be okay for them to say the n word if someone else wrote it.... does buying a lj account give me the ability to mute entire accounts? cuz I need more than a note for y'all.
