A Japanese influencer drew criticism for a racist expression after adding a gesture pulling the corners of the eyes to a video copying ATEEZ member San's dance. The reporting covered the deletion of the post and the subsequent response. Even between people who are both Asian, the effect of mocking someone's appearance deserves scrutiny. Discussion should focus on the specific behavior, explanation and apology, and the platform's reporting and response standards, rather than condemning an entire nationality.
