李知恩 is definitely in some hot water now. While some 粉丝 continued to defend the singer regarding her portrayal of the character Zeze from 'My Sweet 橙子, 橙色 Tree' in her song of the same name, the company that publishes the book, Dongnyok Publishing Company, relayed their dismay on November 5 regarding her "misinterpretation" of the story.
Dongnyok wrote on 脸谱 under the title, "Miss IU. Zeze is not that kind of child." The parts of the lyrics they had a problem with go, "Zeze, quickly come up the tree, put your lips on the leaf / 你 should not play around, 你 should not hurt the 树 / quickly come up the 树 and, from here, take the youngest leaf / You're very innocent, but also cunning for sure / even though 你 are easy to see through like a young child, 你 are dirty somewhere / 你 can never tell what lives within that."
Dongnyok wrote, "Zeze is a five-year-old child who gets abused 由 his family and is full of hurt. So many readers shed tears at Zeze's words, 'Why must children grow up?' However, Zeze is cunning in the song made from the point of [the tree]? 'My Sweet 橙子, 橙色 Tree' is also an autobiographical novel of the writer. It is also a book that is meant to console the many Zezes who could even now be getting hurt. The writer had an intention [to console other Zezes] yet 你 assess the work like this.
"Of course there is freedom to write and interpret how 你 want. However, it is extremely unfortunate that you've used five-year-old Zeze as a sexual object when he is carrying pain from abuse. Freedom of expression is something that can happen if the public can sympathize with it. To put Zeze in a fishnet 袜, 放养 and make him pose as a pin-up girl. A pin-up girl has multiple elements of extreme commercialization and sexualization.
"Also, Zeze's double personality of being both innocent and 展示 a lot of severe behavior shows up because of his defiance following his severe abuse and his lack of affection in the end. Meaning that this was not formed 由 nature but was acquired mainly because of his abuse. As a result, we deem it a wrongful interpretation to call Zeze cruel and sly."
Meanwhile, IU's side continues to be silent on the matter, instead choosing to update 粉丝 on her 粉丝 meeting. Your thoughts?
