What has irked me the most about these so-called social justice experts is how SO MANY people who accused Sorb3t of appropriation couldn’t be bothered to research what culture they were seemingly appropriating, with so many TikTok users accusing them of appropriating K-Pop and Korean culture despite the girls very clearly speaking Japanese and participating in Japanese idol culture. It gives an impression of wanting to be right, not just. I actually really love the idea of there being a homegrown indie idol community as someone who wanted to be a J or K-Pop star but was tragically born on the wrong side of the planet. Although I found them cringe at first, I hope Sorb3t keeps going.
