K-pop enthusiasts were thrilled to witness a momentous occasion as the acclaimed K-pop sensation, Stray Kids, graced the red carpet at the prestigious Met Gala. However, what should have been a moment of celebration turned sour for many fans as they tuned into the live stream from the event.

As the cameras captured Stray Kids on the red carpet, viewers were dismayed to hear the comments of photographers taking photos. Many fans felt that the remarks being made were inconsiderate and disrespectful.

While fans eagerly anticipated seeing their favorite group at such a prominent event, they were disheartened by the lack of professionalism exhibited by some of the photographers. 

Despite the unfortunate incident, Stray Kids' appearance at the Met Gala remains a significant moment for K-pop, highlighting the genre's growing influence on the global stage. Fans continue to show their unwavering support for the group, hoping that future events will be met with greater professionalism and appreciation for their beloved artists.

Examples of what is xenophobia: comparing people to a disease, compare to animals pejoratively, saying to them go back to their country

.

Examples of what is not xenophobia: a PHOTOGRAPHER waiting for better reactions than a tiktok Chad face to have some photos that are not the same as those of the other 300 photographers on the ladder

.

They literally ask everyone to smile or do a different pose, save the outrage to where it belongs
