      HakingMC dude, u r off-topic. U will get a D or F if this happened in an essay. Plus, Korean culture is historically greatly influenced by China. The reason behind their change of alphabet could be a product of the government trying to get rid of the influence of Chinese characters. Not just as simple as somebody later corrected me saying Korean people weren't able to master original Chinese characters. Everything is possible within this political and educational move.
      Stop @ me if you are not talking about the character (the cast )'s ethnicity. The topic is about the controversy of this show for using non-Chinese Asians to portray Chinese. If you think character only means the basic component of a word, stop using youtube and go buy a dictionary, plz.

For instance, when I gave a tour of my high school to a bunch of teachers from mainland China, they could immediately tell I had a southern Chinese accent/pronunciation. As another example, I remember seeing a leaked video where a Wuhan nurse was admitting that they already had over 100,000 Covid cases back when the Communist government was officially claiming only 10,000 cases at the time. That Wuhan nurse had a very very thick Hubei accent that I could barely understand. Even my parents could barely understand her.

    Everyone is making a huge fuss over their accent but isn't it in character of them to have a bad accent? They're Chinese American immigrants and their kids are first generation I believe, as a first gen myself I never learned my native language because my family assimilated to American culture so we wouldn't be seen as foreigners. It would be common for them to lose their accent or even some of if not all of the language. My sister was born in the Philippines and Tagalog was her first language but she lost it when my parents made the move here. Idk I think y'all are just being really picky

      You should never forget where you came from. I suggest learning your native language and getting more in touch with your origins. It is up to you but you need to remember that America does not have a culture of its own, it does have a culture but not it's own. In the future, you might regret the fact that you disregarded an important part of yourself, which made you unique. Of course, it is up to you.

    • @lyn7069
      @lyn7069 3 роки тому +392

      Mariah B. I'm totally on your side. I'm an adopted kid from China and completely lost my native tongue since I live with an American family. It's not easy to just "learn" a culture that you can't really connect to like others can. I would die to know my own culture and roots but it isn't easy, especially the older I get.
      I've tried learning Mandarin on my own ever since I was a kid, but I get self conscious that other Chinese people will think I suck and that I'm too "American" for them or something.
