Romy sat on the terrace with her boyfriend Jasper on Saturday afternoon and shared a photo of it in her Instagram Stories. Her eyes were narrowed, however, and she added, “My Asian heritage was more visible than ever. But no, really guys, I don’t have Asian roots. I wish. Even though I look like there Shin Chan.’
The above text went wrong with some followers. When she was corrected for this by an action group, she publicly apologized. ‘This felt like a joke to me. A sincere, harmless joke. ‘

She continues: “I didn’t notice this, but if I read it back and even immerse myself in Asian racism at all, my action is really regrettable and not justifiable.”
Finally, she hopes that people can learn from each other and continue to listen to each other.
