I'm a fan of "Get Schooled" and "YLAB," having read many of their webtoons. I was eager to see how TRPA agent Daniel's pacifist beliefs would be portrayed in his methods of discipline but was ultimately disappointed. As a Black African, I find the use of the n-word in "Get Schooled" crossing a line. It's not just an insult; it's a deeply offensive term rooted in historical racism. Its use by non-Black people perpetuates discrimination and should be universally avoided. In order not to revert to such years of discrimination it shouldn't be used by non - black people in any context period. It's not just about the west it's an entire race of people.

I dont think the creators are going to change. This is a Korean comic FIRST, and the story in the west side of the world gets it after. So. They'll probably continue what they're doing.

If this was such a non-issue, Korean people wouldn’t have been complaining as well. I’m witnessing a certain trend with those who defend Get Schooled.
