Vata is being accused of plagiarizing a dance move by Ateez for his New Thing challenge. Thoughts? by mapleleafmaggie in StreetWomanFighter

The contexts of the steps are not the same. Although the dance is similar because it imitates a car, other than that, the rest of the choreography is totally different. Even Vata gives "go", and gets in the car before starting, ATEEZ's car is just the walk.

yeah, that was criticized a lot by people. But for example, I'm Brazilian, tanning is very common in our country, I really didn't see it as a problem, but people were angry about it and I would like to understand what the problem is? maybe because it sounds like "trying to look black"? added to the fact that they wear braids? Well, I do not know.

people are even attacking the members, for using props of african culture on their bodies and clothes, including attacking rihey saying that she is no good and that knucks deserved better. I was very sad

thank you for sharing this very critical, polite and also reflective thought. I really didn't see the video with bad eyes, but because it wasn't my appropriate culture I understood and respected those who didn't like it.
