 Anton became one of the trending topics on Mexican Twitter after RIIZE's fan concert today!

What fan service did Anton do?

Firstly, he sang a Spanish song (The fan chant is almost like karaoke...)

He also carried the Mexican flag

(Latin American fans particularly love it when their own country's flag is being displayed by idols)



He also wore the hat that local fans threwㅎ




After the fan concert ended, he wrote a thank-you message to the local fans in Spanish.


BRIIZE~~

Did you lose your voice? Tonight was definitely an unforgettable experience. It was my first time coming to Mexico City, and also my first time meeting BRIIZE in Mexico, so honestly, I was a little nervous about the first performance. But tonight proved that my anxiety was wrong. I'm not sure if it was because it was indoors, but tonight, BRIIZE's support felt the loudest to me. I can't wait to come back to Mexico and perform with BRIIZE even more. Thank you so much, and take care of your voice! Love you!!

I'm sorry if my Spanish is not very good!!

Good night!

Anton during the fan concert:





theqoo

-Thinking of Anton, the phrase 'Love wins all' comes to mind. He seems like a person who overcomes various noisy things in life with love.

-If love was a human, it's Anton for sure. Such a sweetheart 🧡

-Mexican fans must have had a great time.

-Oh, so he can speak Spanish too.

-I envy his language skills.

-Imagine a singer visiting Korea, writing long messages in Korean (even if his Korean is not really good), singing Korean songs for fans, and displaying Korean flag. Korean fans must've loved it a lot. He's really something.

-He's driving me crazy with that face.

-He shares playlists of local songs every time he visits other countries... His fan service is really amazing. 

-He even speaks Spanish, and his face is so handsome.

-Is that D.O's song??

-Chanyoung 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

-He's truly a very affectionate and thoughtful person

-So affectionate, delicate, and above all, so handsome and cuteㅠㅠ

-Local fans must have loved it; his attention to detail in fan service is remarkable.

-I mean... How could they not love it?

-ㅠ Mexican fans must have been deeply moved by his gestures...

-My sunshine baby

The fan services that Anton did that made him trending on Mexican Twitter

 









Russia

According to those who have been there, Saint Petersburg is said to be really beautiful.

You can take the the Trans-Siberian Railway in Vladivostok, which is the nearest to South Korea. 

Thanks to YouTube, there's more travel-related information than before about that country, and the cost of living there is actually okay.

However, they don't speak English, the food is not tasty, and it's a communist country.

theqoo

-I had thoughts about going there, but not anymore.

-I... really wanted to see Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Can't go now though ㅜㅜ

-I wanted to visit the museums in Saint Petersburg.

-Ah, but communist countries are kinda scary... Chinese security officers are very strict with inspections, and it's the same in Vietnam.

-If there hadn't been a war, a lot of people would have gone. Before Corona, Vladivostok was trending, and even Moscow was quite popular.

-There are art pieces that I really, really  want to see in Saint Petersburg...... I also wanted to ride the train.

-Vladivostok was quite popular before Corona...

-There's also racial discrimination and it's dangerous...

-If there hadn't been a war, I would've goneㅜㅜ

-It seemed like a place that was about to become popular ㅜㅜMy friends and I were planning to go ㅠㅠ Now, we've agreed to go after Putin dies.

-I was going to go to Vladivostok in '19, I should've gone then...

-Just like Japan, because it's close, Koreans must have gone for short overseas trips a lot. It was popular just before Corona, right?ㅋㅋㅋ

-In '19, there were a lot of people going to Vladivostok. If there hadn't been a war, naturally, more and more people would have gone.

-I really liked Saint Petersburg, and I promised my friend to go again... I really want to go again while I'm still alive.

-I've been to Vladivostok and was disappointed.

-There's a big language barrier, but it's really, really, really beautiful!!! And it's great for enjoying art like opera, ballet, and museums.

If there hadn't been a war, I wonder if this country would have been a popular travel destination.jpg

Hello, this is NewJeans_R. 

We are deeply furious and disappointed with HYBE's actions. After public discussions and fundraising, we will begin a rally of protest truck to represent Chinese Bunnies. 

⏰ May 17th (Fri) from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM
🚛 One 1-ton truck, one 2.5-ton truck, and one 3.5-ton truck will be used 

NEW JEANS DON'T BE BLUE. 
New Jeans, CEO Min Heejin, parents, and all ADOR's staff members, Chinese Bunnies will protect you.

Restraining a well-performing subsidiary label. 
Restricting (the promotions) a successful girl group.
Rewarding a CEO with negative performance. 
Is this the standard of HYBE? Below average.

Use the money you used for black propaganda on New Jeans' comeback promotion instead.

Bang Sihyuk, who claims to have face blindness, can you also not recognize the money HYBE earns from New Jeans' activities?

Bang Sihyuk and Park Jiwon (Who are busy drinking alcohol and playing golf) are the ones who should be on a long leave, right? Don't make New Jeans and their parents uncomfortable anymore.

What Chinese Bunnies support is not Bang Sihyuk and HYBE, who interfere with ADOR's independent operation, but ADOR, who always stand with new Jeans and CEO Min Heejin.

Below is the second round of protest trucks sent by Korean Bunnies, which will take place from today until tomorrow. 

10 protest trucks are being sent to HYBE's HQ tomorrow 

theqoo 

-Whoaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seriously, they're tearing it up without a single curse wordㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Great choice of words.

-Every word is spot-onㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Amazing choice of wordsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-The fact that even Chinese fans know that Bang Sihyuk is using face blindness as an excuse is really ridiculousㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Wow, they're fearlessㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Wowㅋㅋㅋ The Chinese fans' remarks are strong.

-Wow... I'm not usually a fan of Chinese fans' protest trucks, but I approve these onesㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-The wording is so good.

-Among all the protest trucks Chinese fans have sent so far, these ones are the bestㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Wow... These are like... The summary of the whole controversy. Thumbs up.

-I can feel their rage through this post...

-Chinese Bunnies are the best.

-Whoever proofread it did a great job with the wording ㅋ

-It's all accurateㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Chinese Bunnies are so reliable.

-This is so sad, but it's really reassuring to have Chinese Bunnies hereㅋㅋㅋ

Chinese Bunnies plan to send a rally of protest truck to HYBE's HQ starting tomorrow

 


theqoo

-So awesome, wow...

-They're so good, this is crazy.

-It kinda has an old f(x) vibe.

-I only intended to watch a little, but I ended up watching the whole thingㅋㅋㅋ The song, the choreography, the visuals, everything is amazingㅋㅋㅋ

-The song is so funㅋㅋㅋ It's really addictive.

-On repeat ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽ ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽ ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽

-Both the song and choreography are good.

-This is something only Aespa can doㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 RIIZE's fan concert in Mexico yesterday



In the original video, that fan's face was visible. The OP proudly posted about hitting another's fan, boasting that she 'hit a sasaeng'. But she quickly deleted it after receiving backlash. 
I guess in their culture, it's common to insult and hit people if they see Asians taking pictures with DSLR cameras. They think Asians with DSRL cameras are all Sasaengs. 
Even if they're just regular Asian fans waiting in front of the artists' accommodations, they're treated as Sasaeng by North and South American fans. 

theqoo

-I remember being pushed by a South American fan during a fan signing event, even though I'm not a fansite master. When I told them not to push me in English, they mocked me from behind and even tried to push me more while imitating my Englishㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What does DSLR cameras have anything to do with Sasaengs? Why would she hit that fan in the first place?ㅠㅠㅠ

-They resort to violence so quickly... Honestly, it's not surprising coming from South America.

-This is really primitive... Using violence like that? It's not easy for most people to resort to violence even against someone who's clearly in the wrong.....

-Isn't this racial discrimination?

-This is discrimination against Asians.

-Without fansite masters, what do they fangirl over in that foreign country? They're just using Asians as an excuse for discrimination.

-Crazy b*tch..

-What an idiot.

-Their favorite celebrities are Asians... 

-She commits assault and then has the audacity to film it.

-They're so barbaric, damn it.

-They're incredibly ignorant and uncivilized.

-Why can't they differentiate between regular fans and stalkers???

-It's assault, you know?

A South American fan purposely hit another fan's head at RIIZE's Fan Concert

 

A shocking incident has recently occured. The largest female-dominated online community in the country has sparked controversy by secretly taking and posting photos of Korean and foreign men, sharing content that demeans them as sexual objects. 

On the 15th, Maeil Business Newspaper reported, "In an online community with 840,000 members, nude photos of foreign men were posted and sexual harassment occurred." 

This is not the first time such an incident has been reported. In 2021, it was reported by a few media outlets that numerous Korean men were illegally photographed and sexually demeaned in a female-dominated online community. However, South Korean media outlets and politicians remained silent. 

This time will likely be no different. They will remain quiet as if nothing happened. Politicians will also keep silent, fearing a loss of 'female votes.'

Let's imagine if this incident had happened in the opposite scenario. What if a male-dominated community had secretly taken photos of women, posted them, and demeaned them as sexual objects? Numerous media outlets and even politicians would have all jumped in to get involved. 

This is the reality of South Korea in 2024.

Issues from Social Perspective 

The double standard in female-dominated online communities presents a significant problem. While they criticize the sexual objectification of women, they simultaneously demean men as sexual objects, which has drawn criticism for being hypocritical. This creates social unfairness and calls for serious reflection on our perceptions and attitudes. 

The Reality of Sexism and Sexual Harassment 

Members of this online community have made sexual evaluations of Korean and foreign men, discussing their appearances and genitals in obscene terms. Such behavior is a typical example of sexism and sexual harassment. This should be recognized as a very serious social issue, far beyond personal defamation. 

Issues from Legal Perspective

This action can be punished under the Information and Communications Network Act and the Stalking Punishment Act. However, legal measures alone are not enough to resolve this issue. Along with legal measures, there needs to be awareness and education because sexism and sexual harassment are not just personal issues, but serious social problems. 

First, we must eliminate the double standard behavior, where strictness is applied selectively based on convenience. Moreover, politicians should not remain silent out of fear of losing votes. They should proactively address these issues, criticize them, and work towards a more just and inclusive society.


theqoo

-Does he not know what 'Nth Room' is?

-I looked it up, and it turned out to be posts about meeting Western men on dating apps like Tinder and sharing reviews. How is that the 'Nth Room'..ㅋㅋ Did they want to enslave those men and rape them? Or did they want to make sexual exploitation films and make money by spreading them?

-South Korean media and politicians remain quiet because it's not on the level of the 'Nth Room'...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ....

-Well, it's not to that extent.

-I don't feel like responding. Did he write an article without even knowing what the 'Nth Room' is? What kind of journalist is that? How could he compare it to the 'Nth Room,' where more than 260,000 people gathered, including minors, to produce and distribute sexual exploitation material for sale and purchase? Does he not even know how serious the 'Nth Room' is?

-I heard it was just a post about reviews of Tinder dates...

-The 'Nth Room' is sexual exploitation, but are men being exploited there?

-I checked it out because it seemed weird, but it's just a list of men who don't use condoms, have STDs, or have bad bedroom manners... I know it's not a good thing to share, but it's ridiculous to compare it to bunch of men evaluation women's bodies in Nth Room. The purpose and content are so different that it's just funny.

-Did those women make money from sexual exploitation films? No. Did those women threaten those men to distribute their pictures? No. Did those women sell those men to other women as slaves? No. It's not the 'Nth Room'~~^^

South Korean Media and Politicians Stay Quiet Amidst the Surface of 'Women's Version of the Nth Room' ... What are they afraid of?

KHY: Don't cry

BWS: I won't

(Even though Sol told him not to cry, she herself is crying...ㅠㅠ)

(After wiping away the tears and trying to continue the filming... She keeps tearing up because she's too immersed)

KHY: I keep tearing up... Tears are falling from my eyesㅠㅠ

(In the end, Sunjae also ends up shedding some tears)

I personally think this is the saddest kissing scene everㅠㅠ 

 





That's how they wrap up that confession + kissing scene

-It was really heartbreaking to watch...

-Even watching the behind-the-scenes of it makes me sad

-I'm becoming a puddle of tearsㅠㅠㅠ

-It's so incredibly sadㅠㅠㅠ

-I cried tooㅠㅠㅠ

-They're really amazing to be able to film such a scene surrounded by crews like that...

-Seriously, they're really amazing to film a scene like that in such a narrow space surrounded by staff...

-It's so sad but both of them are cute.

-I can feel Sol trying so hard to hold back her tears...ㅠㅠ

-This scene is just too sad....
