BOY BANDS LIKE NCT 127 HAVE SPAWNED “MASCULINITY TRAINING CLUBS” IN CHINA

NCT 127 is just the latest K-pop boy band gaining popularity at a rate that is alarming to many Chinese. These boys who wear makeup, earrings and fancy clothes – and are adored by girls – are perceived as sissies and a threat to the masculine culture of China.

Boys as young as 7 play American football and endure military discipline to become Alpha males. No makeup allowed.
