Your Name Engraved Herein from Kuang hui Liu taught me that freedom isn’t complete until love can exist without fear. Watching it as someone from a more open generation, I felt both empathy and guilt, empathy for their silence, guilt for taking visibility for granted… so it made me really émotional

Esports were officially included in the Asian Games (Hangzhou 2022) stadiums were packed, medals were awarded, and players even gained national recognition (some South Korean medalists were exempted from military service).

Hollywood often cast white men like Chuck Norris, Van Damme, and Seagal as leads in martial arts films. This wasn’t just marketing, it’s a “white savior” move: centering a Western hero in a genre rooted in Asian culture. popularizing kung fu but erasing its origins

I think that japanese men who choose not to date or marry are being blamed for Japan’s low birthrate but they are deeper issues. High living costs, limited childcare, and a demanding work culture make raising children challenging for many. #Japanesemasculinity

Diets in East Asia are shifting: rice & veggies give way to meat, dairy & processed snacks. Even Lunar New Year sweets increasingly come in commercial, imported packaging #transitionaldining

It is a mistake to assume that all beauty ideals emphasizing whiteness are about aspiring to Caucasian features. Across Asia, lighter skin has historically been associated with class status (not working outdoors), long before colonialism #decolonizebeauty

K-pop stans turned fandom power into activism: they flooded the #WhiteLivesMatter hashtag with fancams, drowning out racist content. Skills from organizing streaming parties turned into digital protest. ✊🎶 #KpopStans #DigitalActivism #BLM

I got into Korean dramas first, and the subtitles pulled me in but then I started picking up little phrases and emotions directly. Just like Dr. Fukunaga said about anime helping students with Japanese, pop culture made me curious enough to keep learning. #NatsukiFukunaga #LearningKorean

I choose Kei Nishikori, a 35 years old japanese tennis player !

Kei Nishikori in Madrid isn’t framed as an untouchable star but as someone who’s learned to live with surgeries, comebacks. The story sells endurance more than revenge !

It is not exactly a « news story »but travel programs often frame Asian destinations as “unchanged” or “lost in time,” focusing on temples, monks, or markets while ignoring modern realities. Reinforce the idea that Asia exists mainly for Western discovery.

You speak English so well!” (said to someone who grew up speaking English)…Assumes English proficiency is unusual for Asians, even if they’re native speakers. What is better to say ? Nothing special about language ability… 😜😜#noassumptions #LanguageBias

Luxury ads often borrow lotus flowers, bamboo, or calligraphy only for a “Zen vibe,” ignoring their cultural roots. Stereotypes like “Asia = calm, spiritual” are reinforced in this Kind of ads

@ninadorso0805.bsky.social I think that pop culture is more accessible to our young generation. And when I moved abroad sharing new memes and music was our new bridge. Pop culture gave us a common language when words felt too hard.

It was interesting to see the differences between school in Japan and in France. Because in France we don’t have to take off our shoes before entering class :)
