I'm a 19 year old white kid who attends university in NY state. I got into Kpop (Korean pop, just in case you don't know) in December 2017. I adore the groups I've gotten into. I try very hard not to objectify or fetishize the men and women of the groups I like. Liking Kpop has gotten me more interested in Korean culture – I've started learning the language and I'm thinking of studying abroad in Seoul soon.

One of the groups I really love is coming to New Jersey soon. When I talked to my parents, they said they thought it would be best if I went with a friend or at least a concert buddy. The problem is, I don't have many friends, especially any that like Kpop.

There used to be a Facebook page for my class, but it somehow got deleted. So, I posted in my school's meme page instead. Now, it does say that the page should be memes only, but others have posted off topic posts (snow day announcements, lost items, etc) in the past. I also post fairly often (once or twice a month) with on-brand content so I figured I could post something.

I can't give you exact wording, but I linked to an ad for the concert with the caption being something like "I know this is off topic but if you or anyone you know would like to see some Korean boys dance around for a few hours, let me know!" And I left it alone.

I came back a few hours later and couldn't find the post. I thought it was lost in the shuffle, but then I saw this (word for word, minus the school name) posted by a mod (a Filipina student.)

"official psa: this is a meme group. therefore, please only post memes related to the ~school name~ experience here. aka keep your racial fetishization koreaboo shit (and also all racial discrimination) out of here thx - mgmt"

I don't know this person - never met them. What I'm wondering I guess is AITA for liking Kpop when I'm white, or if there was something in my post that could be viewed as "racial fetishization koreaboo shit." Thanks y'all. 

TL;DR: I'm white, I like kpop. Posted about a kpop concert on a school meme page. Mod who I've never met deletes the post and calls me a koreaboo.
