ALL DAY Project updates: Group members under fire for cultural appropriation and ‘chaebol' status—netizens react
The latest Korean pop group, titled 'All Day Project,' has been making rounds online ever since all of the members of the group were announced. The group has managed to garner a lot of traction even before their official debut; however, a lot of the attention on the group has come for all the wrong reasons. Some of the group members are being heavily criticized by netizens online, with some even calling for the removal of one of the members. Member Lee Chaewon was criticized for cultural appropriation and for supporting a convicted felon One of the most controversial members of the new pop group is Lee Chae Won. Chae Won, who is oftentimes referred to by his stage name 'Tarzzan,' is arguably one of the most controversial members of ALLDAY. The model-turned-idol has been heavily criticized by the masses for wearing cornrows and other kinds of braids. The idol has, time and again, shared photos and videos featuring the hairstyle. The most recent incident caused a lot of outrage, however, when even his promotional posters were filled with him sporting the hairstyle. Beyond that, a lot of people also dug into his social media platforms and found out that he even follows Tory Lanez. Lanez is a Canadian rapper who has previously been convicted of using a handgun against Megan Thee Stallion . Due to this, many fans have called for the removal of Tarzzan from the official group. Annie Moon 's 'chaebol' status One of the members of the group, Annie Moon, was originally supposed to be a part of the K-pop girl group MEOVV under the same label. Her name, however, came up when the official announcement for the members of ALL DAY was made. The reason for negative criticism against Moon comes from her family history. She is allegedly the granddaughter of the chairman of one of the top brands of phones and electronics in South Korea. Many criticized her status and even called her out for being in the group. Many even called out how she is only becoming more and more popular due to her 'chaebol' status.
