    Ampers&One member Brian is currently facing criticism after a past controversy resurfaced.

    Ampers&One’s Brian | FNC Entertainment

    In 2022, Brian competed on the survival show Boys Planet, but was eliminated before the final episode, ultimately ranking 32nd. It was during the show that Brian’s comments first surfaced.

    A clip of the idol showed a written list of things he was not allowed to do, including “can’t date Indians.”

    This was recently brought up in another post, where someone questioned why he wrote what he did, bringing attention to it once again.

    Some have questioned why the issue was brought up again, offering explanations including that the written list was influenced by his parents and that their views do not necessarily represent his own.

    no way this been apologized for and niggas bringing it back like brian the anti christ. dislike him cool but chill off him https://t.co/xaj1ilIq4y

    I’m Indian and ik this was stupid to show on screen but those are not his words but his parents, specially his mom. C’mon guys, we’ve had idols with shitty people as their family before but do we hate them?Brian knows much better now and he’s mature enough to tell right and wrong https://t.co/4nYwCYB4Xz

    However, many felt that this was an example of how racism towards South Asians is. Many commented that even though the issue was in the past, it should still be addressed at this point in Brian’s career.

    As an Indian, I’m just tired of the casual racism we face on the regular. Even if his parents were the ones who set this rule for him, he could have not bring it up. For him to mention it again is just tone deaf and insensitive. https://t.co/MjGBuEZJFr

    I feel as though everyone in the quotes, and in the comments are trying to use this as a gotcha moment, instead of addressing the real issue. which is racism against Southeast Asians which has become so normalize if your not south East Asian I don’t think you have much of an say… https://t.co/ZWYu4lflF8
