I had dreads once.
But I mostly got them because the African lass wanted me to exp her culture. Which is different maybe?
And I did ask if it was ok and she said it was. So I got permission as well.

Thing is, one doesn't really need to get permission to have cornrows/braids as a hair style. It's just cancel culture that makes people think it's cultural appropriation. And that even is amplified purely by Westerners. Braids have been worn by multiple different cultures over time including Vikings, Indians, Arabs, Egyptians and more.
And even if "woke" people in the West try to make it seem like it's disrespectful to black Africans, I can assure you that most people actually living in Africa really couldn't give a shit if someone wore braids.

That's true. But maybe I am too formal for my own good.
I only did it once and I thought I looked nice personally.
Then again my social skills are impaired a lot. So there's that as well.
I don't really understand social cues etc.
I just think the world is no longer worth embracing which what goes on.
So I choose to ignore cancel culture and all that other jazz
Beauty in everything but I feel like it's fading slowly every year.

They look interesting on him......but one day kpop stans will finally have a conversation on why these group only wear braids and etc. when they have “hip-hop” or “tough” concepts. 
sorry but your last statement is very weird. People of African descent should be able to talk about their somewhat shared culture and share their opinions on it no matter what continent they reside on. Even then it’s a gross generalization of the entire African diaspora as if it’s not a complex community.
I would agree with you if it wasn't for the fact that - as I already mentioned - braids/cornrows weren't used exclusively by only Africans. They date back centuries across several different cultures and yet it's only a few people who get offended by others wearing them. Not to mention how a lot of the people who get offended by it choose to do so on behalf of others - they aren't black nor have any relation to any of the other cultures who have a history of wearing braids.
Edit: The only instance people should get offended over something like this is when it looks tacky on someone, as it does on Doyoung. But to scream "cultural appropriation" over it? Yeah no, that's just baffling.
