Fans notice issues in WayV's teaser photos, including a Japanese slur and pins glorifying chemical agents used in the Vietnamese war

Posted by mygsbeat174 pts Monday, June 8, 2020

Fans have noticed issues in WayV's recent teasers for their comeback.

In WinWin's photo teaser, a pin can be seen with a Japanese racial slur, "F'ckin cool J*p." While in Kun's teaser photo, a badge with the words "Agent Orange" can be seen, which is a dangerous chemical that killed Vietnamese people in the Vietnam war.

After this issue arose, SM took down the original photos and reuploaded without the pin and badge.
