Korean internet users have been discussing the ongoing challenges faced by the girl group KISS OF LIFE following their "racism" controversy. 'KCON LA' recently announced that KISS OF LIFE would no longer be part of the upcoming festival lineup due to backlash from fans.

The controversy began in April during member Julie's birthday live stream, where the group impersonated characters inspired by "old school hip hop." This led to criticism from American fans who found the impersonations disrespectful towards Black culture and labeled it as "racist."

Despite issuing handwritten apologies, some fans felt that KISS OF LIFE's apology was insufficient. Korean netizens have expressed various viewpoints on the situation, with some acknowledging the severity of the criticism and others questioning whether the group can recover from the fallout.

Comments from Korean netizens highlighted disappointment over the handling of the controversy, comparisons to responses in other countries, concerns about the group's future, and reflections on the cultural sensitivity of fans towards Korean idols. The fate of KISS OF LIFE amid the ongoing backlash remains uncertain according to the reactions and discussions among netizens.
