Carolina Shiino turns into "green tea", has her title banned, netizens still not calmed down?

Carolina Shiino, a Ukrainian model, was crowned Miss Japan, causing heated debate in public opinion. Recently, this story continued to gain attention when Miss Shiino had to give up the title due to a love scandal.

Carolina Shiino, 26, a white model born in Ukraine, was crowned Miss Japan on January 22. She moved to Japan when she was 5 years old and lives in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture.

"I have lived as a Japanese, but there were racial barriers and many cases where I was not recognized," Shiino said in fluent Japanese after her coronation. "I am extremely grateful that today, I have truly been recognized as a Japanese person."

However, Shiino’s victory was met with mixed reviews. Many Japanese expressed their displeasure at the fact that a non-Japanese person represented their country’s beauty. They felt that choosing a model with a European appearance to represent Japanese beauty was a mistake.

In particular, there are views that the choice of a model of Ukrainian origin may be political, because in the context of Japan opening up to countries with low birth rates, they need to integrate and create opportunities for immigrants. However, many people cannot accept that a person of non-Japanese origin can become a symbol of beauty of this country.

Not only that, Carolina Shiino has faced a serious scandal related to her relationship with a 45-year-old doctor, an influential online and married doctor. This relationship was exposed when Shukan Bunshun magazine reported the details, causing a stir in public opinion.

The Miss World Association initially defended Shiino against the allegations, after she claimed she had ended the relationship when she learned the doctor was married. But the association confirmed on February 5 that Shiino continued dating after learning the doctor was married. The association later apologized to all parties involved in the pageant, including sponsors and judges. The title of Miss World will remain vacant for the rest of the year.

Shiino also posted an apology on social media, saying she was afraid to speak out after news of her relationship scandal spread. "I am truly sorry for the trouble I caused and for betraying those who supported me," she wrote. Shiino's apology on social media was not enough to appease the public. Not only did the public condemn her actions, but they also felt betrayed by her dishonesty throughout.

The public reaction to this incident was extremely harsh. On social media, many people continuously condemned Shiino, saying that she did not deserve the title of Miss Japan. Many people condemned her sexual behavior, seeing it as disrespectful to family values - which are extremely important in Japanese culture. Moreover, they said that this was a testament to the decline of modern society, where moral standards are disregarded.

The decision by the Miss Japan Organizing Committee to strip Shiino of her crown has sparked mixed reactions. Some believe that this was a necessary decision to protect the prestige of the pageant. However, others feel that this action is too harsh, especially since Shiino has admitted her mistake and expressed remorse.

This incident not only affected Shiino personally but also sparked a lot of controversy in public opinion, not only about the Miss title but also about cultural issues, ethics and acceptance of diversity in Japanese society. Does the Miss Japan title truly reflect the values and image of this country? Does the hasty revocation of the crown reduce the prestige of the contest? The public has raised many questions about the future of the Miss Japan contest.
