Normal people: actually watching the video
Me: trying to find my friend (I only found his name in the credits)

Wait your friend was in the video?! Damn he's lucky!

Yeah. He dances for The Lab, a dance company in California.

This j-hope hair thing reminds me of Bang Chan's hair controversy. I just wonder, why do people complain about others having black hairstyles when they themselves may not even be black?

Me too. I can see the cultural appropriation part. I think that as long as people aren’t doing something to make fun of it, it should be okay. Nobody was doing it to hurt anyone and sure, black people may have been harassed in the past for their hair. However, I think that by shaming people for “appropriating” it, we end up taking a step backwards. We draw more attention to the issue, therefore making it a much bigger issue than it should be. Instead of hating on people for the styles they wear, we should express our opinions to the people who shame others, whether they attack the original culture or someone who dresses similarly. If you don’t agree with me, we can agree to disagree. Thanks for coming to my TED talk
