- Is there a problem with a Southeast Asian person looking too Southeast Asian?
- She’s actually my favorite NewJeans member.
- It’s okay as long as she’s not Chinese.
- What did Gucci’s stylist do? Why did you make a cute girl become like that? Even my mom doesn’t wear like her.
- She’s less Southeast Asian than BLACKPINK Lisa.
- But she’s the cutest and loveliest celebrity these days.
- I think she’s the best dancer in NewJeans. It’s great that she’s also pretty and has a good personality.
- How popular is Hanni in her home country?
- Racial discrimination.
- She’s my pick because she’s so cute.
- Southeast Asian people are so cute. I love Hanni, (G)I-DLE Minnie and BLACKPINK Lisa.
