“Topless” Dance Team Photograph Causes Controversy in Korea
This is not exactly a tasteful photograph to celebrate graduation with and I am not surprised it is being criticized in Korea:
A poster showing topless art students posing has gone viral on social media after it was uploaded on a personal online account.
Eighteen modern dance students at Chonbuk National University in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province, took the now-famous photograph to commemorate their graduation, reports said.
It is customary for seniors to take studio photographs with their friends. However, this particular photo drew controversy when it was made into a poster for a graduation recital — an official school event.
The photos show the dancers 17 female and one male shirtless and with their backs to the camera.
“Things are difficult in our department as a result of this poster going viral,” Kim Yoon-ah, a teaching assistant in the dance department, told The Korea Times. [Korea Times via the Marmot’s Hole]
You can read more at the link, but the rule of thumb just about anywhere is to ask yourself is this a photograph you would want to send to grandma? With that said the one guy in this photo is probably proud to show it to everyone including grandma.
Something seems out of place, but I can’t quite figure out what it is.
“With that said the one guy in this photo is probably proud to show it to everyone including grandma.”
…because there is no way the one guy majoring in modern dance is gay.
Aight first off… there’s no need to put the word topless in quotes as they’re literally topless. Also as expected certain people here naturally focused on the only guy in the photo cause apparently… ghey.
Finally I’m not sure how one could take the position that this is a tasteless photo for a dance troupe. It’s artistic expression and if you can’t understand that I have this to say:

Smokes: I think those not geeking out would need a bit of assistance to parse your post. They may find it here: http://www.binarytranslator.com/
“first off… there’s no need to put the word topless in quotes as they’re literally topless.”
Maybe “Topless” is the actual name of the dance team. 😛

Hm…maybe the link has queertrons (not that there’s anything wrong with that).
The above is supposed to read Fun link Johnhenry! But when I checked it again it’s F link johnhenry! Which changes the meaning entirely….

The most important discussion has not yet started… so let me kick it off with my personal opinion.
I expect most here to be in agreement except Smokes and (maybe) Liz.
yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, no
