Less day 10 days after this post it was revealed kai actually asked for the dreads and at times did his own hair and even said what method he used. He was worried people wouldnt like it and was pleased to find most people did. He meant in korea not the west. Kai later said in an interview when he does something people dont like he simply blames s.m.
Its common sense someone who's favorite artists have black hairstyles would also want to mimick that. But these sick people are so obsessed with celebs being perfect they come up with fantastical scenarios to make the person look innocent. He wanted the hairstyles. It is much more difficult and time consuming to do his hair like that. S.m as a business is cheap why would they push for something that would take more time and supplies. Its not logical. He likes to get into character. Also he reposted the picture of him with dreads on his instagram twice. Just that alone wasnt forced. He also told ravi he was copying him because ravi had dreadlocks at the time too. This is all online.
He also braided his own hair for wolf he knows how to braid. Which is fine its a free world, but the lies in fandoms disgust me. I am so sick of the lies and false narratives.
To all of the people who are saying Kai could’ve said no to the dreads:
DO YA’LL KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SM ENTERTAINMENT????
OF COURSE HE COULDN’T “SAY NO” IT’S NOT HIS FUCKING DECISION
HE SAID THAT HE HATED THE CORNROWS DURING WOLF-ERA AND FELT UNCOMFORTABLE WEARING THEM.
DID SM LISTEN TO HIM??- HELL TO THE NO
SO WHAT MAKES YOU THINK ANYTHING HE SAYS REGARDING HIS HAIR WILL MAKE SM LISTEN TO HIM THIS TIME??
OH SEHUN HIMSELF SAID THAT THE STYLISTS NORMALLY DO NOT LET HIM DYE HIS HAIR THE COLOR HE WANTS TO (it was in an old interview but its relevant now).
SM hair stylists are obviously extremely colorist and gave Jongin that hairstyle for an unfortunate reason that is wrong on so may fucking levels.(and if u don’t know the reason thn pls message me)
But Jongin can’t do anything but work with it because its not like he’s in any authority to disagree with it, and he gets paid for it either way.
Like do y'all think Exo would srsly be out here preforming in bright pink suits and elf costumes if they wanted to?? Ya’ll think Byun Baekhyun wants to be walking around with a striped mullet? No grown man wants to do that, but they HAVE TO CUZ IT’S SM.
SM is a notoriously Strict and awful company, and they have prohibited idols from having a say on numerous things. If you want to hate on someone, hate on SM and their warped and racist/colorist ideologies.
We all know that Jongin of ALL Kpop Idols is NOT racist or colorist– he has experienced that same discrimination against himself firsthand ever since his debut, and has demonstrated time and time again that he is in fact not ignorant.
But anyways, I’m tired of this bs against kai. Just cause y'all hate exo and r threatened or some other dumb shit, doesn’t mean u should be attacking jongin or making things up about what he can and can’t do, when your not even an exo stan in the first place.
LIKE, YA’LL REALLY NEED TO THINK WITH YOUR BRAINS ONCE IN A WHILE
(and yes I’m a black exo-l btw so trust me ik the pain)
There are so many good streaming deals but I barely even watch TV and tubi exists so no.
Perfect Blue (1997) dir. Satoshi Kon
is he racist? No not in the traditional sense but he has had an idealized fetish for black aesthetic culture since a young age. But other peoples perception of what he does should not concern you. If people from black society interpret what he did as racist that is their right. Its a complex topic to be handled with care not a sassy response of oh sm made him do it. I will not just accept that foolish behavior. Let his behavior be interpreted by whoever is interpreting it. The tacky lawyer defense just makes black people feel more offended and angry. I just wish everyone would allow people to have their own opinion about art without getting over emotional. Especially if no one is being direspectful. Everyone has the right to their own opinion. Telling others to just leave and shut up is not a mature response.

aint no way the debate almost 20 years later is kataang or zutara? They were kids, uneducated, living on the run, traumatized children. Who were later placed in child marriages by the writers to appease adults who thought they looked kawaii together. This is sick.
Katara will forever trying to be her mother stuck in time, Zuko will forever be afraid of his shadow and reflection and Aang will always be that child with more pain than he can handle. I hate people who barely know these characters talking about ships and romances. They are so much more than that. The creators cant even delve into the characters because the fans catch a tantrum every time they do something adult or imperfect. Can't wait for the animated films to come out hope its ultra realistic and crushes everyones fantasies. These kids are warriors but people think they are cutie pies.
The show is spiritual above all else yet people only talk about this mess. Like tai chi is a real thing. Energy bending is a real thing. Katata does reiki heaking, Zuko's heat breath its a style of yoga, Aang being vegeterian and his love for animals that comes from universal oneness. Appa and momo are shown as concious beings.
So much to discuss, yet the focus is in a 2 dimensional understanding of relationships.
Guru patik was correct attachment especially to the false ideal of love via romance is stupid. The irony of Aang dying to save Katara is that honestly if given the choice over her father and brother or grandmother or Aangs life.. she wouldnt do the same for him. The love was misguided. Which is exactly the lesson of the story. But people think that choosing romance over your own soul is good. No it makes you a fool. Aang betrayed his own self and he died for it. Notice he only mastered the avatar state after he realized the others werent serious like he was cause in the end it was his life. And none of them would of fought the firelord for him. Even if they did they wouldnt of lasted five minutes. Zuko and katara could barely handle Azula. And then they only beat her because she had a whole breakdown. Only momo was with him until the end. This is why I hate fanservice it gives shippers to much to go off of.
