Shout out to BTS fans for making English translations with Korean romanized lyrics. My brother learned silent night from a video and made my Korean grandmothers very happy

Uh guys, in case you aren't all caught up, the graphic novel that started as a little queer comic on Tumblr by ND Stevenson (creator of Shera: Princesses of Power) has been adapted by Netflix into an adorable movie about the contemporary genderqueer experience. Go watch Nimona. RIGHT NOW. (Also read the book!)
The movie also features an API gay couple. Ambrosius Goldenloin is an Asian American descendant of the revered knight, Gloreth, and he dyes his hair blonde to match hers and fit the white saviour image that the public expects from him. He is manipulated golden child of a conservative white woman trying to assert control over the kingdom. Ballister Boldheart is a darker-skinned (desi! muslim!) British Pakistani sweetheart who had to bootstrap his way to the top and still couldn't win model minority status with the head of the institute, and is framed for crimes he didn't commit and condemned by the state. The character designs are both modeled after their voice actors, Eugene Lee Yang and Riz Ahmed. Both actors have done extensive DEI work for the API LGBTQ+ community and visibility!

They are archenemies. They are lovers. They are husbands but also kind of divorced. They will find their way back to each other because they are simply victims of the same system, and they are just so soft for each other and what they want to protect. They are also Nimona's dads. They're slightly different from how they were in the book, but I'm so glad for the changes. And I'm so glad for what remained exactly the same as ND Stevenson envisioned years ago:

So a friend of mine pointed out all the signs that Lois on My Adventures With Superman is Korean American and while I like the fact that they had the guts to go in that direction, lets not forget the other hard hitting Korean American journalist married to a superhero:
Read ups:
The Trials of Linda Park

The meet-cute with Flash/Wally, going from hating each other to loving each other:

To being a married couple:

To creating a family:

And at one point being the most popular couple at DC even beating out Lois/Clark and Scott/Barda which also made the pairing the most popular interracial pairing at DC.

P.S Kaguya
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It took six years of struggle in an industry that favors thin and Eurocentric for Kaguya to make it to New York Fashion Week. As a second-generation Korean American, she encountered constant resistance to her weight and stigmas about her identity. She quickly discovered, she says, that the same stereotypes associated with Asian women were reinforced for Asian models: to be petite and obedient.

Happy AAPI heritage month! I’m a proud queer, Korean-American transgirl 🇰🇷 and I’m so happy to see so many amazing AAPI artists thriving in recent years. As with everything, It’s never a lack of talent but rather opportunity, access and resources. Wishing more happiness, joy and success for all my AAPI family 💜

Statement from Korean American Support for Prisoners of Conscience
Despite Israel indiscriminately bombing schools, hospitals, refugee camps, and residential areas in Palestine, causing the mass slaughter of women and children, U.S. imperialism and Western imperialism continue to support Israel’s inhumane crimes.
Among the distortions and fabrications propagated by the West and nations against North Korea, there is a propaganda war labeling North Korea as a human rights-abusing nation. These countries have no right to even speak of human rights.
