Tiffany is under fire from international fans for her choice in emojis.

She posted a photo of the 8 Girls' Generation girls on her Instagram and tagged all of them with emojis according to the girls' skin color, with the darker emoticons allotted to members such as Sooyoung, Sunny, YoonA, and Yuri, who have darker skin than the other members. This inevitably drew a lot of backlash from fans who saw it as racism. Other fans defended her, pointing out that she wasn't even making fun of their skin color and it was often mentioned that Yuri was the 'black pearl' of the group.

You can check out the post here (the emojis don't show up properly unless you're on an apple device).
