Lanzhu Zhong's informed Hong Kong nationality
For many fans from Hong Kong, Lanzhu Zhong's nationality is one of the most criticized issues, as her ethnicity has more hallmarks of a Mainland Chinese person than an actual Hongkonger, given her frequent usage of Mandarin Chinese instead of Cantonese (which she only used one line for it). Compounding the problem is that her School Idol outfit greatly leans to the stereotypically traditional Chinese clothing, with her songs being reminiscent of Mandopop instead of Cantopop.
