Did the cameraman have a Nayeon bias? Because he has the best taste if he did.
Momo is very cute too. Do Japanese K-Pop idols get treated differently?

Ph.D candidate Stephanie Choi is a native Korean studying ethnomusicology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. While she focuses her research on K-pop, she also finds time to enjoy the music, her favorite group being BTS, a seven-member, hip-hop-inspired group.
When defining cultural appropriation, Choi called it "[taking] an element of another culture for your own use or advantage." That entails the economic profits and reputation, but leaves the responsibility of conveying that culture and the meanings behind it, she said. Essentially, it's like a one-and-done kind of deal where the artist or company gets to choose how to enterprise that identity and leave once it's served its purpose.
"The people of the culture they use become voiceless," Choi told the Daily Dot. "They lost their voice to properly convey the culture, meaning, or values of their own culture."
In Korea and among K-pop fans, the term K-pop really refers to idol music, or the musicians who make up the immediate mainstream. If we're talking "Korean popular music," there's more to it than just pop, Choi said. It includes K-hip-hop, K-indie, K-rock, and more. K-hip-hop especially has a very prominent position next to idol music and is more or less just as guilty of appropriating culture—especially black culture.
Sometimes the offenses come in small doses, such as one member of the group sporting cornrows and bandanas. Just like in any romantic relationship, little things matter: It's a subtle means of perpetuating stereotypes and taking from an appearance that belongs to someone else.
Sometimes the cases are much more blatant, and in those instances, fans respond—especially those who feel directly offended.
An older, but classic example of brazen cultural appropriation is girl group T-ara's 2010 release of "YaYaYa." The title track offends Native American culture on a multitude of levels. For one, the lyrics feature very little words (in English or Korean) in favor of chants and yells.
