The Claim of Racism is way overblown and Show has potential
Introducing Kpop to a wider audience on Nick is a great idea. Showing the similarities if people from different cultures is the first step in understanding. My daughter is Autistic and has mixed ethnic heritage. She has no problems with this and I am happy she shows interest.I have no idea if there will or will not be Korean males in future episodes. To judge this from ONE episode is a bit of an over reaction and will only cause a situation where LESS understanding of people of different ethnic backgrounds will occur.
The first episode shaped up well. Given that a cast can take 5 or more episodes to develop characters and create the synergy between characters this was fairly good from the first episode.It has strong potential for developing an audience that will appreciate it going forward.I hope this is just the beginning of more multi-cultural shows from Nick in the future. So far I am pleased and My Daughter is looking forward to the next episode.
score 8/10
