However, many people weren't convinced with the apology, criticizing KCON USA for speaking out when the job posting trended online.
They remarked:
- "You're all saying sorry now because lots of people brought it to light. You guys know exactly what you wanted and what your intentions are when you posted "Asian / European or White.'"
- "Why on earth do you need specify a certain race if you weren't discriminating?"
- "If people didn't speak up, you never would've said anything."
