Jung Kook, BTS and English language K-pop
The latest podcast about Jungkook and K-pop is full of xenophobia, racism, and techno-orientalism, chasing an alien fantasy that represents a borderline fetishization of Asians. The fact that it was approved by the New York Times shocks me. It is very ignorant, uneducated and unprofessional and reflects poorly on the New York Times. What is astonishing is the American arrogance that comes from people who claim the English language and popular music as their own, even though neither of them even originated there. Saying that Koreans shouldn't sing in English as if it isn't a universal language is shocking to say the least, but then turning around and saying you should rather listen to Justin Bieber sing in Korean is low. I have no words. The audacity to keep pop music away from Asian artists and only allow white artists to sing it - as if pop didn't evolve from a combination of jazz, swing, blues and rock, all of which have bipoc origins. This podcast proves that many white people simply absorb cultures without thinking and claim them as their own, feeling superior. The podcast is full of bias against an artist and a group, arrogance and ignorance, and gives a known hater of a particular group space to speak instead of discussing this very sensitive topic objectively and seriously without prejudice and bias.
