This Monday night at the legendary Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the long-awaited MET Gala which had several luxury guests and other debutants, that was the case of the Korean pop music group Stray Kidswho attended as ambassadors of the designer Tommy Hilfiger.
Along with the couturier came the group made up of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin and IN. Although it was their first time on the Met carpet, the artists did not disappoint and included a “reveal” on the way up the stairs where they showed their royal outfits that were hidden under the large brand coats they were wearing. .
However, Stray Kids’ walk on the carpet will be something they will hardly forget thanks to the MET Gala photographers. It is well known that they tend to be aggressive and disrespectful when giving instructions in these instances, not to mention shouting.
However, on this occasion the Korean group not only received instructions, but also racist comments that alluded to his “lack of expressiveness” and “emotionality”.
As shown by several records extracted from the official broadcast on Twitter and TikTok, mainly, the photographers They did not hesitate to complain about the positions the young people took or that they had to take their photos again when they revealed their outfits..
“I have never seen faces without so much emotion, they look like robots”one of the photographers is heard saying. “Oh no! We will have to take the photos again, they revealed (the outfit)”another complains.
“Everyone jump!”, one yells at them, mocking their synchronicity and alluding to the fact that they looked “robotic,” with the intention of noticing if they were really human. “How do you say red in Korean?” another is heard saying.
It is worth mentioning that all the members speak English and one of them is Australian. The moment caused great annoyance among the group’s fans, who compiled and translated the moment.
@shyjeonglix Clearly they are not genuine comments but there is a laugh/mockery behind them #straykids #stay #skz #metgala #straykidsstay #kpop ♬ original sound – jime - For Latest Updates Follow us on Google News
