“White people seem really ignorant and uncivilized.”
Koreaboo
British pop singer Adele is facing significant backlash from her Korean fans after the Rising Sun flag was displayed during one of her concerts.
The controversy erupted after the flag was seen on a massive LED screen at her concert in Germany on August 2.
Adele is currently performing ten large-scale concerts at a specially constructed stadium in Munich, designed to accommodate over 740,000 attendees. The concert series aims to set a Guinness World Record with its 220-meter-long outdoor screen.
Despite the ambitious setup, the appearance of the Rising Sun flag has overshadowed these achievements and drawn severe criticism from Korean fans.
The symbol — associated with Japan’s imperialist past and deeply offensive to Koreans — appeared during Adele’s performance of “Rumor Has It.”
Videos of the concert quickly spread across social media, sparking a wave of angry reactions from Korean fans.
- “Crazy, like the Nazis..”
- “How should I put this… White people seem really ignorant and uncivilized. They don’t even know why the Nazis are taboo; they just get fed information that Nazis are bad, so they just accept it, right? Otherwise, why would they keep using the Nazi symbol of the East? They are so ignorant..”
- “Ignorant”
- “There’s no way they didn’t know what the symbol was when it was so blatantly displayed. They could have just searched it.”
- “So ignorant. Or did the person in charge do it on purpose? Since they can’t use Nazi symbols in Germany, is this a substitute?”
- “Do they want to use the Nazi symbol in Germany but can’t, so they use the Rising Sun flag instead? It seems intentional rather than ignorant.”
- “Are they clueless because it’s an Eastern symbol? I tried to understand, but they should know about World War II. They can’t be ignorant about Japan, so why do they have no interest or understanding of the Rising Sun flag?”
- “This is insane…”
- “The West is so hypocritical. If you don’t criticize the Nazis like they do, they treat you as uncivilized and make a fuss, but they only criticize what they choose to. Hahaha.”
- “Ah… What’s this? I like Adele’s music, but why is she like this?”
- “Why can’t they use the Nazi symbol in Germany, but they use the war criminal flag? Hahaha.”
