minsuwoongmengsoong:

a lot of fans are wary of vernon because hes mixed with white. now i get the white privilege thing. but he is /not white./ he clearly is not shunning his korean roots either. now besides the disgusting mixed fetishization, there’s a lot of racist and anti-mixed comments coming his way. i am a mixed korean myself, and i feel like youre dissecting him into white and korean and he’s not “korean enough” so you treat him like a white guy. this is what mixed korean kids deal with all the time. this is super detrimental and its not worth the “no lips whitey” jokes. mixed koreans do have it tough, i would know. and especially the non white-korean mixed people. i know he might have it easier, but he does not have it easy. another topic, first hand, ive been called a mutt, tarnished, along with east asian and korean directed slurs and im sure hes been told he isnt korean enough or too korean. its a struggle going through life having your racial identity played with by others. in korea we are ostracized as well. what im saying is he isn’t sitting on some pedestal and taking it easy just because hes got white in him. if anything hes often told he isnt korean enough or hes deracialized ON TOP of being fetishized for being “exotic” by both sides.
