Hey guys, 

Now, as you all know, currently, every single exo-l's instagram, and twitter feed must be bombarded with the jongdae situation.

Honestly, I wasnt going to say anything about it but I soon realised it was futile.

First thing's first, we are humans, misunderstandings are bound to happen. I am not here to defend jongdae in any way because I personally belive what he said was ignorant. As a world artist with millions of international fans of almost every race and colour, SM should educate their artists in such situations. We all know that what he said is not even considered as something racist in south korea, but as a brown girl myself, I cant help but feel disappointed. 

Whatever he said, I believe he wasnt trying to be a racist, because to me, kim jongdae is a funny, talented, hard working ball of sunshine who could never hurt a fly.

Now we, as fans, can do two things in this situation-- 1. Bash the idol publically.

                                                                                    2. Educate the idol and keep on supporting them.

I've seen so many posts of fans saying that they've dropped jongdae, and it saddens me. It also infuriates me. By having 9 members, it is natural for everyone to have a favorite, but fans seems to forget that inEXO-- WE ARE ONE. there is a reason that phrase is exo's tagline. 

I just hope that all exo-l's, the old ones and the new one's will keep on suporting EXO,and not just one member. Yes you can have your biases, but in the end, exo and exo-l's are nothing without each other. 

 

 

Thank you for reading! :)

I still don’t understand why people got offended!it was an unintentional joke from him,doesn’t mean he is insensitive or racist or anything of the things they accuse him of.he compared himslef to a fictional character that just happens to be a black slave. I seriously start to believe the fact that people just wait for an opportunity to bring exo down,and it makes me mad :((((( first baek and then baek and baek and now jondae *eyeroll*
Yes he did wrong but is that a reason to completely « drop him »?those who dropped him r not perfect either.
