I know for sure I have to keep in mind that this takes place in Korea and the racism out there can differ than in the states…but the reverse racism is wild! Like wtf, I really don’t like it cause it paints black people/mixed people (any dark skinned people) in such bad lighting. I’m a mixed black girl so there are many times when I can’t help but to find something a bit racist or discriminatory, but I don’t pull the card for everything. But in entertainment media I can’t help but to notice the lack there of, especially growing up. Many genres and forms of entertainment subjectively vilify and disparage blackness already (dark elves are usually evil and ugly, black features on animated characters are usually overly unkempt/exaggerated features, black people usually or only come from poor families/neighborhoods, etc.) that seeing it in a manhwa I love so much is unsettling. I hope that it goes over well. Racism is a topic that is not covered directly in most forms of media and tends to show two that represent racism rather than the blantant crap that actually goes on. So it’s…nice to see it so bluntly??? But then also no? Lol
Also homeboy gotta chill with the N word. Bruh over here Korean and American, so I’m assuming a white American. My guy definitely said it with an ‘a’ at the end cause lord knows I had to count those asterisks to make sure
