IMO the headpiece is so aggressively generic it could easily be conflated with jewellery all around the world, including in Korea. Once again, no one has to like the style, but its not straightforward as "this is only sacred jewellery worn in India"
Anyway, if you've reached the end of this thread, consider donating to a trans org in India, they're very close to their goal and trans people have suffered immensely from covid and under our current govt https://uk.gofundme.com/f/help-the-transgender-community-in-hyderabad-india
To conclude: some people are gonna be mad about this, and thats their personal perogative, but insisting that this is a direct case of ca, and Somin is wearing auspiscious jewellery, is a reach and honestly, our traditional jewellery is way nicer than that generic bullshit
No bc I keep having to say this again and again and again: if you think this is offensive then fine!!!!! Thats up to you! No one has to support KARD or Somin!!!! I'm wrote this thread to explain the function of the jewellery, not to tell ppl what to feel
