Yet, netizens are furious after Spanish media have been accused of racism towards the actress.

The first post was shared by the Spanish Netflix account, and it featured Yerin, Luke Thompson, and Hannah Dodd. Despite the main “couple” being Yerin and Luke, she was put at the side of the photo, with a huge gap between herself and her co-stars.

In an interview with Yerin, Luke, and Hannah, netizens noticed that Yerin was placed to the side of the stage rather than the center, despite being one of the main characters and her storyline with Luke’s character being one of the most popular.
