Tiger JK had brought his son, Jordan, on stage at Yu Hui Yeol's Sketchbook on 2nd January. His 21 month old baby came on stage and Tiger JK talked a little about how his son is featuring in his album. At one point, Tiger JK put the mic in Jordan's mouth and made the audience laugh. Tiger JK also said, "I don't want him to go in that direction," when Yu Hui Yeol talked about his talent in hip hop. The drama started after the cameras stopped rolling. Tiger JK read some racist comments on articles about his son's appearance and became furious. If you didn't know, Tiger JK is married to Yoon Mirae who is of African American descent. He started to rant on his Twitter about the racist comments. His tweets said,
"can't be liked by everybody i know, there's an article about Jordan, and some of them relpys make me sick,,,,talkin about race," "talki bout his hair being nappy and he looks black, they prolly like 12, prolly yong kidz but hopefully they learn" "Comments are always like that but there are actually kids who say things like half black half black. Racism won't disappear forever." "racism, im sure they dont know no better,it's ma fault for xposing ma son like that tho when they call ma son up to the stage i had a feelin" "cant believe the are going as far as using the N word, they need to get the ass whooped by they pops, ignorant ass younginz" "I know that half of the comments are written by kids who want attention but people still use the expression black." "ha im used to bein hated / called all kinds of name it comes wit territory / but in the states i was called a chink ,N now the N word here" "they could hate all they could, im here for that im used to bein hated, chewed on, jk wack this and that, but can dey just C wat dey C,Love" "callin ma wife and me kid, nappy headed N***R , i wish they would see me in the street" "^^ I'm a father so I went crazy over hate comments. I'm sorry." "peops are so lonely like me da would say anytihing behind the walls of matrix to say things that would get em attention,i pray for they soul"Though I didn't see these comments made by netizens myself, from what Tiger JK is saying, I'm disgusted as well. How could anyone say those kind of things about a child? You shouldn't use racist words in general but to a baby? Seriously? Tablo of Epik High replied to Tiger JK saying, "This world doesn't make sense and it has so many bad people. Your child is beautiful!" At this point, I don't think it's racism that is the problem. It seems like these netizens are the real problem. They should seriously listen to this. Check out the video of the adorable baby Jordan's appearance.
