I Feel More Apt To Say These Things Because I Know There's A Lot Of Shady Stuff Going On - Blog Posts

1 year ago

I need to have a whole essay, book lecture on the jedi mind manipulation that the asian media has gone through hell and high water to push on unsuspecting people who really don't even know the evils that they unknowingly be supporting. Mind you understandably exo was promoting a skin whitening company before kji went to the military, free will is a thing that's fine, and understably they have an image to promote. But I've never seen the other members this skin whitened while in the military, they all tanned and had unedited photos posted of at least light tans. Almost all the members who posted army photos before or after training had tans, I'm genuinely trying to understand them having the naturally darkest member edited to where his skin looks lighter then theirs did. I truly don't understand that, it seems comical yet also very strange. There were times even while injured, barely going outside that his skin is darker. Almost every public sighting he's had he appears to have like no melanin in his skin. I always think before I speak it's typical for me to hold in my words for months until I'm very sure of what talking about. To me s.m would know better than anyone else jongin's natural skin tone. Early in his career he never hid it and talked about it quite often, then somewhere along the way unless he was in america or europe his skin was ghostly pale a majority of the time. Logically speaking one would think that he tends to do what is required of him when asked by his employer. Understand that as well. Then there's the multiple layering that s.m I assume started placing over his photos so that it would be impossible to "darkwash" a laughable term coined by people upset at the attempt of fans to figure out the true skin color of kpop people. Now it is considered even more villainous to "darkwash" than to whitewash. Mind you this child was underage most likely skin whitening, putting poisonous chemicals on his face to appear lighter and caking makeup on all to fit into the s.m standards. But this is seen as normal and okay for both boys and girls. None of this is natural and can cause severe damage to the skin. Since it's 2024 and the average fan or even passerbyer will know little to none of this information, nor any cultural social background of what's going on in the kpop industry and why it is in fact not okay. But normalization and jokes make everything seem okay. The amount of fans I know of that genuinely, truly believe jongin is light bright tan and that's the darkest he can get and anything else is just bad lighting is sad. I know deep down they feel and say this because this is what they want to be true. The effort they put into the facade for him to me is too much to just be a coincidence, usually in the army kdolls are on their own but s.m hasn't stopped controlling his image, whether it's "random sightings", "public events" or things he posts himself they are intent on heavily lightening and editing his photos in a way I've never seen done before for someone on a break. They still have his collar on pretty tight.
