apparently people contacting like extremist groups, so subscribe because
I'm probably gonna end up in YG's dungeon too! when I told her blackpink
was coming back she was like.. where did they go? hi welcome to my totally legit
new show my name is Angelina and I am your host and today we're gonna talk
about YG coming under fire for disrespecting a Hindu god in blackpink's
new music video for how you like that and we're gonna also talk about what
kind of happened on Twitter after that happened after that was brought to light
and we're gonna discuss blackpink on Jimmy Fallon as well as some fun little
things that have happened in kpop recently so keep on watching actually
I'm gonna stop you right there to remind you to subscribe like comment and share
this video with friends you don't have because I now officially work for free
at YG entertainment, if you think I don't support the girls just know that
my money goes towards probably a lot of fucking denim, am I ecstatic about that? no
not really so subscribe because I'm probably gonna
end up in YG's dungeon - okay so we're gonna start off with YG entertainment
receiving a lot of criticism for featuring a Hindu god in the music video
for how you like that so essentially at 1 minute and 20 seconds of the music
video it's Lisa's part and you see she is sitting down with shoes on and in the
corner you see a statue and this statue is of the Hindu god Ganesha and now a
lot of people are asking yg to remove this part of the clip for a multitude of
reasons some are pointing out that the use of the statue as an aesthetic is
inherently problematic while others are pointing to the fact that having the
statue situated below someone is incredibly disrespectful and wearing
shoes around said statue is also very disrespectful
one comment reading ''YG should do something with the culture appropriation
where Ganesha statue should have been elevated and Lisa shouldn't have worn
shoes near that statue or even just remove the statue in the MV so that BP's
reputation won't get tarnished because it's disrespectful in the Hindu religion
to have a statue on the ground at the same time shoes worn near those statues
especially to a very important God like Ganesha'' another comment
reading ''yg has used the idol figures of Hindu gods of India they have
disrespectfully used it for props for aesthetic we are disgusted our culture
is always used for aesthetics" now of course a lot of people are directing
their hate towards YG entertainment themselves because a lot of fans don't
want this associated with blackpink and they feel as though the members
themselves really didn't have any control over what was used within the
sets of their music videos, but then on the other end of the spectrum I've been
seeing a lot of things going around on Twitter a lot of hate directed towards
blackpink themselves even as far as- okay, this is a little weird I've seen a
lot of crazy things on Twitter but apparently people contacting like
extremist groups in regards of the use of the statue and even some people
contacting Mur---- though it's kind of hard to verify it's true like I don't know
how one finds mur---- on Twitter but I wouldn't put it past the site either way
there's just one thing I want to say a lot of people have been asking me to
talk about this so I do want to highlight your voices and a lot of
people are saying that if you're not part of the culture in question you
can't really tell people what they themselves should be offended by and
unfortunately with yg things like this tend to be swiped under the rug quite
often you know it's really rare that yg kind of addresses these things and it's
kind of really rare for kpop as a whole to kind of take what fans are saying
and kind of do anything with it but I don't know what do you think do you
think yg is going to address this do you think it's just gonna be kind of swept
under the rug again and you know it's really interesting because I feel like
these companies can afford to hire someone like specifically to kind of
look out for these things I don't even know what kind of title they would have
like in charge of cultural competence I don't even know or like even like test
audiences like international test audiences to kind of review these things
before they go out for you know the general public but as I'm filming right
now YG has yet to release a statement regarding this let's move on
to KPOP Shenanigans so it's just basically fun little things that have
happened in kpop recently okay so the first one thing that
happened is that BTS released their music video for their Japanese single
stay gold, we also have hay- I was gonna say Hay-teez
oh my goodness we also have Ateez who have performed a cover of BTS' song ''on'' on
music Bank and a cover of growl at K- Contact 2020 we also got to see their
new hair colors and I'm sure all of us are so surprised none of us saw the
leaked photos many of us and on that Ateez note we also have Mingi who released
his episode 2 of his fashion series and I found out he he made an entire video
on how to style plaid now I haven't had the chance to watch the video in the
entirety I watched a few like the first two minutes I think and I saw a lot of
lumberjack vibes so I'm also selling my lightiny... I'm kidding we also have Seulgi and
Irene who have released more teasers for their subunit
for two shadows which they firstly featured a very dark concept and the
second one it's like kind of retro then you still have those dark concepts but
it sounds really fun so I'm really confused as to what to expect from this
but I would love to know your thoughts down below like what are your
expectations for this I feel like I keep clowning myself because I rely so
heavily on teasers and then it never ends up being like the Taser like when
will you learn apparently never now as for blackpink I keep seeing articles
about what kind of records they're breaking I don't even know where to
start I was like there's too many just know they're kind of they're out there
doing the most blinks have been starved for so long they like oh my god I don't
even know what to highlight at this point but lastly on some quick news you
know some non-record breaking news we have seen that Jieun, a stylist for 20 years
at YG Entertainment has left and yg have stated that they can't really say why
and you know I wanted to ask you guys did you notice for this comeback a kind
of new styling direction for black pink or do you think they're kind of staying
within the realms of what they've always done before because she did have a huge
impact I mean I think she was the styling director for the whole company
so I'd love to know what you think if it's actually changed
but moving on to more blackpink news as we all know they have appeared on the
Jimmy Fallon show not only did they debut their song how you like that for
the first time on the Jimmy Fallon show but they did you know kind of try not to
laugh just was so cute so funny to watch now I don't know if you guys remember
this but my mom was so convinced that blackpink we're not going to perform on
Jimmy Fallon because she was convinced that he was retiring even though I was
like I'm pretty sure you're just thinking about Jimmy Kimmel taking a
break and she was like no you guys will see and then she also said and I quote I
will cancel myself before your fans ever get to me so just know she's not scared
of anything when I told her blackpink was coming back she was like um where
did they go? so I actually did not stay up to watch this because I was like you
know what I woke up you know ten minutes before their music video premiered I
trust my body to just know when they're gonna come on Jimmy Fallon and I woke up
at 3:00 a.m. a whopping three hours late But I still watched it and the outfits are so
beautiful but it seems that a lot of people have also been making memes out
of like this one part of the choreography where fans are describing
it as them being like angry Sims and I cannot get it out of my head I think
it's I think it's the most wonderful thing ever but on that note of
choreography I didn't want to touch on it a little bit because I feel like it's
the choreography in their careers that kind of is the most unlike blackpink
but still has a lot of elements of familiarity as well there's still a lot
of you know take backs to previous choreographies while the feel of it the
flow of it still feels very fresh and new and I feel like within the course as
well there's just kind of these elements of quirkiness that I feel like they just
haven't experimented with before and I don't know I'd love to know what you
think of it as well and if you'd like me to make a video about it as well kind of
how their choreography has changed throughout the years or anything like
that then please let me know also I've heard through the grapevine that they
will be traditionally preparing know traditionally promoting this song on
music show and this morning I believe they performed on Inkigayo and I really
hope I really hope they perform on m-net I'm dying for just crisp high quality
pictures but I digress okay so that is basically it for this video thank you so
