"Anti Black Racism exists in Korea." Oh really. How surprising. This has bee going on for ages in Korea.

[JariahxSynn]

Not shocked. Who else knew? Show of hands. ✋🏿

[mollymoo]

Black people you have no friends!! Dr Henrik Clark. RIP

[anthonymolden]

But they're totally cosplaying Black American music and style, as usual. Tired.

[ColdDream]

Who is really surprised by this? Yet deniers will just claim it's ignorance, despite the fact South Korea is a developed society.

[arthurjohnson]

Never been interested to go to Middle Eastern, North Africa or Asian

[MindfulMoments]

I NEVER understood the obsession with K-pop and South Korea that flourished over the last few years especially among the 30-25 and under in our community. Kpop is just a repackaging of a lot of our music and culture with a bit of theirs mixed in. Racism exists and will always exist there. It's funny because the majority of people with this obsession HAVE NEVER traveled abroad in these countries. Silly!!

[AF-Twice]

Discriminating over skin color? How stupid are people? Such a primitive way to think.

[keithharris]

But you want those African resources so its all good huh ?

We Black people need spend more time on building stable families and economic infrastructures than worrying about who HATES us....

[dpeasehead]

I notice on a lot of internet sites that people come up with all kinds of defenses and justifications for anti-black bigotry. None of them ever accuse anti-black bigots of "playing the race card." Why is that the case?

[dboi]

They eat rats over there but got the nerve to look down on black people...

[deandraowens]

Lets go back home! They will follow us there too. They already have.

[jenny-imgc]

Please black peoples. Let us start our businesses and support our black owned businesses.

[Sub-If-You-Are-Against-Zionism]

Because Koreans, Japanese and Taiwanese are the anglos house asians

[AlphonseWeebay]

“I can’t WAIT to visit Korea…” SAID NO BLACK PERSON ANYWHERE EVER

[thirstquincha]

stop supporting asian companies, restaurants, nail shops, beauty supplies, Temu, etc

[acorn]

It's so crazy. The science of melanin has been around for decades, yet these folks choose to ignore it. I wish them all the best.

[G.A.Hamilton]

Meanwhile they emulate our style and copy our music and try to have our Swag.

[KingJasmine-spxv]

Dark skinned Asians have been complaining about this all over the Internet already
