This was during Good Day LA today
The guy circled in red is Mark and he's a Korean born Canadian. His nationality is Candian and he's been living in Canada since he was small and did the SM auditions there before coming to Korea.
But when they were doing the interview in English..
MC: Are you from Canada?
Mark: Vancouver, yes
MC: Wow! Amazing, very cool. Your English is awesome.
And she started complementing his English.
Mark's expression (look at Haechan's expression at the back)
Everyone looked so taken aback but since they are idols, they just laughed it off.
He's from Canada so I think that she was being pretty discriminatory when she was complementing his English.
What's different than our country saying to a white man who was born in Korea "your Korean is so good~"?

- She is being racist. There are so many people who don't understand what is wrong here...;;; Peter (the Spider Man actor) once complemented Eric Nam for his English and received so much backlash... It's like they are prejudiced against Asians and think that every Asian is bad at English.. just the fact that this is what they think makes them racists..

- ; Yah, I'm not even his fan but I'm mad at this. It's like someone coming up to you and saying that you're good at Korean... I'm born in Korea so of course I would be good at Korean.... this makes me mad

- No but it's true that this is racist;; He's Canadian so he's good at English. She's saying it like it was so unexpected;; does she think that he would be bad at English just because he's Asian? F*ck

- Seriously, the more I see things like these, the more I understand why Mark's mentality is so firm... he lived in Canada for 5 years and then lived in the US for 5 years, and then he went back to Canada for 5 years and then came to Korea for 5 years and debuted 3 times.... To be honest, people were xenophobic when he was in Korea to because of his English accentㅜㅋㅋ Seriously... our Mark is so preciousㅠㅠㅠ but I was more annoyed by the fact that he was so handsome yesterday
