@ღAsel Secret Angelღ not as bad here

I figured out what it was at 8

I was 11

And I discovered them at 43 yo😊 Not the girl/ boy singer-dancers but the real band with instruments. CNBLUE was the first one as I realized: "Oh..these boys are amazing. They music is really good. They're talented musicians etc..." It happens that they started with this 'IDOL' things too. Their visuals are TOP and their natural beauty is well known. They are a real deal. Thanks God. Although they're not this kind of group, they did have faced a lot of difficulties at the beginning. They worked hard just like others. More than others. Yonghwa, the leader slept just 2 hours per day even after their successful debut in 2010. They did more than 100 street busking in Japan before debut where no one was watching them. Just passing by. They were nothing but now...they had 17k audiences in just a concert. They're what they're now. They are still working hard and they deserve our love and support. Fighting 💪🏼

14? I realised abt kpop when I turned 25 lol and yet I have watched only 3 or 4 kpop stars. I am not into kpop or Kdrama too much because it’s unrealistic from the world that is something I knew as soon as I got introduced to it

I was 5

Manisha Bhaittrai With the agency it’s basically a whole team, who publishes the music and gives themes and what not. Even in holly wood to get famous you need to have a label to publish the music. Without an agency or team you might not be successful, at least in Korea. In the US idk

Eun Kyung TV! Yeah that’s too far

ikr! jimin from bts (bighit company) had a water diet, bighit still let him drink water.. Thats too far

Without water, it’s so easy to get dehydrated and pass out. Water is more important than food, plus it’s so necessary for the body. That’s just sad. Kpop diets aren’t healthy on its own, but this “no water” diet is another level.

The fact that they do a lot of physical work like hard dancing just makes it worse.

Water has no calories and helps you lose weight.... THAT MAKES NO SENSE 😂

probably because she was older than the others (24), i heard sori also couldn't debut with yg (i think) because she's almost 30. But who knows, i hope she does get to debut i would totally stan her

I knowww that's were I really got confused

@@yeee9238 thats so crazy to think about, considering bts' age difference(in the beginning it was 15 at youngest and 20 at oldest). I guess that just goes to show how rare and how lenient just that amount of leeway can be in the kpop industry. Just age can be that way...

we only heard one other persons feedback. maybe the others were really good

I think if you're a trainee you need to have the talent and skills not just knowledge on how to dance and perform because companies have high ideal standards that you need to keep up and they are not thinking twice whether they'll pick you because they are always looking for the best. It's harsh but that's reality. And it doesn't mean that you get the best compliments you're safe no sometimes they compliment those that did not pass the test just to lessen the negativity or discouragement of that person.

would that be okay if they were males?

wachotraefernet that’s not it they put more pressure on the females because in Korea and most asian countries the standards for females are much higher then males

@@wachotraefernet It OFC would not have been OK.. I said especially females... It mostly because they have high standards... In Korea and companies are much brutal towards the female trainees than the male... You can see in the video at the beginning... Her scream... She looked in so much pain.... :(

wachotraefernet you took that way out of context dude

Yes they are like disrespecting them

actually a little correction, in thailand its people with chinese descent that are mostly casted. Native thais are rare

That's why idol's and trainee's deserve respect, we have to support them because their the ones who are putting all the work in, they're the ones who are sacrificing youth and freedom, we have to treat them with compassion, and maybe in the future when Kpop gains more exposure in the western, companies can change too.

Some company are sh*t really

cherry blossom are you kidding? They’re being forced into doing this.. the only people disrespecting them are those that make them do this and those that glorify celebrity culture.. the world doesn’t need a million Disney-style performers but hey if there’s money to make then you can be certain that someone is taking advantage of these young people

I know, I think it’s quite sad really. People shouldn’t need to suffer this much to be happy. I mean gosh yeah they’re beautiful and I really like how they look, but I would never do that cause I think u should love yourself. And if you wanna become a famous singer there are others ways, I mean, look at Adele she doesn’t have a perfect body or anything but me and a huge amount of people love her for her voice and creative ideas. Or even Billie Eilish. She’s my favorite artist for her voice and songs and the fact that she is not perfect and has her own problems and that she is super honest about it just makes me admire her more.

It’s also so sad when you realise how little money they get from it. I remember a while ago seeing the breakdown of SM Entertainment’s income, and I can’t remember seeing a good amount going to the idols. Some amazing music and talent comes out of Kpop, but it is heartbreaking knowing what harsh treatment is behind it all. There’s so much that we don’t see that goes on behind it all, and I understand that there is bad in many industries across the world, but things hit harder when you see or hear of it - it really brings it back to reality. I wish people could do what they love with the talent they have, and not be pushed over the brink to fit a particular structure or mould. It’s like some forget that they are people and not just idols to be trained and make a name of the companies.

I think it’s buttering her up before they dish out the real punishment which is kicking her from the debut. It’s to soften the blow when she realizes she’s the only one that won’t make it.

I think they also did it on purpose for the other girls. They knew she wasn't going to cut it, and praised her while belittling the ones who did. A bit of manipulation. 'Oh look, she did great but she was cut, I have to work harder and be better than her so that they don't kick me out.'

@@liliaalvarado7040 that way of thinking is really smart

Lilia Alvarado I agree with you but I also think that it’s saying even if they are praised and do good it doesn’t always guaranteed that they’ll 1. Debut 2. Be successful 3. Wont regret it later And much more despite their hard work

Dumb and stupid....is it worth it ?? Don't think so......on top of that most will go for plastic surgeries........they don't look natural selves.......hair colours and so on....... it's sad they 're so insecure with themselves .and that lead to all others.......tq

Shirley Cameron dont say dumb and stupid. It’s really disgraceful. Koreans have insecurities that they would change anything to make their insecurities patched up.

Shirley Cameron k firstly, it’s not dumb and stupid if being an idol is really what they want. There’s a lot of pressure, of course, and they are overworked, but when they debut, they’re happy. Secondly, the different hair colours are the concepts for the songs and albums. No one is being tortured with hair dye, it’s not a bad thing despite dying hair endlessly will damage their natural hair. Lastly, most of them go through hard times. It’s a lot of pressure being a trainee and hard work must be put into it. Although some are insecure, many are confident and they encourage others. Being insecure doesn’t lead others into being insecure.

Shirley Cameron you probably don’t think it’s worth the hard work because being an idol isn’t your dream. But many young people are happy when they sing, dance, and perform. The job that you want, the dream that you want, what you want to do in life, are you willing to work hard for it? If you are, then you’re just like those trainees. They think it’s worth it because they’re grasping at their dreams, and you will too, when you’re in the process of grabbing ahold of your dream

Sasha B thank god they didn't touch my snek bois

@@yurikatsuki5130 not THIS, but a less severe form. They most definitely had rules and had to restrict their diet in some way and were being trained in their skills and there were many trainees in the lineup for bts that didnt get selected. But for one, male trainees have it a little easied, especially in regards to posture, style, and weight, oof honestly every rule for idols is a little stricter for women. So bts had a corm of this ,but not nearly as bad i dont think. Remember suga messed up his shoulder and never got it fixdd due to the fear of him being kicked out, and he most likely really would have been. But even still, bighit seemed to have treated them fairly well all things considered, they werent starved or berated constantly as theyve said and the boys mainly just pushed themselves on their own, because again it is a competition for all of them.

This happens everywhere

that's how it goes , i'm pretty sure if she called the CEO she'd be out immedietly

Magnaut Sana criticism isn’t only pointing out flaws, its also about giving advice to improve on those flaws. i do agree that being able to take criticism is a big part of life, and these girls are taking it well. however the trainer isn’t giving advice at all and solely telling them what they’re doing wrong - in a very harsh manner. if it is criticism, it’s not very good criticism

@*화월6446 i never said kpop trainers were idiots, i was pointing out the fact that the dance trainer was giving the trainees harsh "critique" on their singing - something she probably, if we're being honest, has little experience of training. therefore, it shouldn't be right that she's the one to give them critique on their singing

@Eszra Falcontail I agree, but some people also want to join K-Pop because it's their hobby, or liking.

bangtansonyeondamn exactly what i was going to say. It’s a gradual (yes. slightly painful) process. but it should never bring you to screaming and tears. Be gentle with your body... and how they pulled her out of it at the end! they were just wanting to tear her muscles

@@stephanieblosser5490 oh my god i know i cringed so hard when they yanked her out of it. i have been a dancer for 22 years and thank god not once has someone forced me into the middle splits like that. its so 80s to do something like that :/

I know haven't done cheerleading in years but that is a BIG no no

Pushing with a lot of weight could be harmful but you can see in the video she just has one hand on the girl's body so I doubt she's pushing with much force. I think the girl is mostly screaming from the pain of gravity. Partner stretching like this can be very helpful, but I've never screamed from pain before pushing a middle split.

Stephanie Blosser I’m pretty sure it was another trainee that pulled her out of the position thinking she was helping her :(

They audition for the exchange of fame for their dreams as the consequences they have to accept their path as a trainee..

i mean it could be to make the company more known, like if they're flexible people are like "oh did you see this idol that is so flexible?" kinda like that

They'll be singing and dancing for quite an amount of time per day, if you're not flexible then you'll get stiffer and stiffer which can affect your performance on stage.. if you dont have charm/charisma then the only thing you can rely on is your performance

plus you don’t get paid at all unless you repay all the debt you owe to your company for training.. so you’re also broke

RM's moonchild yeah or u don’t get properly recognised and promoted and thus ur group becomes a nobody in the kpop industry... not only do u need to get past the stage of debuting but also continuing to work hard to attain success. I always pity and feel bad for many idols 😓

not really tho if you did work really hard and did a contribution to all of the kpop industry, although doing that is very hard and its very unlikely to happen (use bts,and other famous groups for an example, i bet they won't be forgotten. but they did work really hard) but imo, its easier to get richer by working in a idol agency or making an idol agency then being the actual idol

It's kind of annoying how so many companies are popping up wanting to train idols and once they debut, they don't have enough money to actually promote them. Training an idol is an investment but if you don't put anything to promote them then they'll dissappear and you'll just keep losing money.

@Chloe Williams really? I'm really not well versed in this topic , I've watched a few videos and it seems like most of this companies see their artists like products, I've watched videos of managers of BIG groups (BTS and BLACKPINK) telling them they're fat or the artists being exhausted onstage and nearly fainting, if them, the ones who are "the most popular, meaning the most powerful" are working in this conditions, who is safe?

I agree

50kg is not underweight for a lot of people. Even the girl who was like 46 I wouldn't be worried about the weight on its own. The diet slightly, and the schedule is a bit too strict, but other than that this really isn't as bad as people are making it out to be and as others have said, it isn't representative of a lot of companies. It's just that over in the west we tend to encourage people to give up & not bother with anything, eat whatever and not exercise. Then we try to force them to accept the way they look because trying to lose weight and/or getting a cosmetic procedure done is evil and makes you fake. Generally speaking. There are certainly some notes we should be taking from these companies.

50kg and below is not really under weight for a girl her height and age especially in Asia. (i weigh 48kg btw)

it's only underweight if you're tall-ish. not only that, but bmi is catered to caucasian people; asians and black people do not experience the symptoms of being underweight until a significantly lower bmi.

Yeah, bmi doesn't take into account very much at all. If you have a lot of muscle your weight and therefore bmi might be quite high even if you're healthy with no excess fat. I'm around 58kg, 175cm, white if it matters & I do not look underweight at all, & my bmi would suggest I'm almost underweight. At my goal weight my bmi would be like 16 and 18 is considered the borderline for being underweight. And this is using the nhs calculator which checks other factors too. But I have a healthy diet, exercise a lot, no serious health issues, low body fat and some visible muscle. The only people bmi really works for is people who have a lot of excess fat in which case they'd already know they're overweight.

I get that BMI isn't a perfect indicator of health and that there are differences in what's considered a healthy BMI for Asians vs Caucasians. But we all heard her describe her diet, she's eating something like 300 calories a day ? I'm not sure how we all aren't in agreement--that's just not enough calories for an adult woman who is already slim. I feel like this discussion happens all the time in kpop Fandom, a kpop idol or trainee will reveal their diet and instead of acknowledging that they aren't eating much, the discussion slides into how inaccurate BMI can be or how that idol is just naturally thin--they're literally explaining their very low calorie diets. They're thin because they eat very carefully and exercise a lot. It's almost like there's this mass delusion that all kpop idols are just all naturally thin--what a coincidence. Furthermore, their training just seems bizarre. What benefit is there to exercising 7 hours a day, everyday--at some point, you run into diminished returns. Even pro athletes don't train that much, because at some point it just doesn't help you improve. You hear stories about trainees waiting 6 or 7 years to debut and its just baffling--they're training to sing and dance, not to perform brain surgery. I know they also have language and ethics training, but it just seems like an excuse to put the trainees further into the companies debt or to keep other companies from snatching up talented trainees. And if they allowed trainees to debut younger, that extends the idols career (I don't think most idols really work past 30 or so?) and thus brings in more money for the company. Anyway, something there doesn't add up, and I'm sure I don't understand the bigger picture of the idol industry--that's by design, of course. I'm sure it's in the companies interest to keep the most unethical parts of training out of the public eye. I just wish the Fandom thought a little more critically about the industry instead of believing whatever an idol tells them. Just because you see an idol eating on camera or talking about how much they love food--it doesn't mean they eat like that all the time.

but the people in the comments saying this are met by immense hate telling that she is a dance teacher and whatnot, giving constructive criticism is what she should be doing, but instead she is abusing her with words. Imagine if the trainee was seriously hurt when they forced her to the splits, like gurl that's not how it works, you can't force yourself to do things like that, you are either born with it, or you slowly adapt to it, get it straight. I got so pissed 😤

I would've cried

I would've insult her

@@xannity7969 lol. that's too much.

@@Sapphiredrawing bro we are same

FLAMIN GGUK ifkr

They should do that. The real world is much cruel than them. The people can't see your hardwork. They will only see your mistakes so you must become a perfect human being to become a kpop idol to prevent people from bashing you.

Madame X so basically you’re saying because the world already operates like that it’s perfectly fine and we should adapt to it instead of changing it.

사탕사탕 they’re so rude ik

Of course companies may be nicer than this, or even worse... But also imagine the age range. Like Jihyo, wasn't she only 11 or something when she started??? I'd like to the these judges doing everything they've been doing.

plus the amount of dancing she does would probably burn all those calories up to rather like negative calories a day

Well, her goal (sadly) is to lose weight...

Them*

I’m mildly Bored. Apologies. calorie deficit it whats required for weight loss. unless you want to lose an absurd amount of weight in a short amount of time then you would choose a dangerously low kcal consumption like 300

Blackpink Lisa weighs 98.5 pounds, at the height she is rn, how much she weighs isn’t good for her.

My gf weights 46kg at 152cm. That's 101 lbs at 5 feet tall. Low bodyfat. Still a bit underweight, but she is strong, eats 1400 cal of quality food. No candy at all. She is aiming for ~50kg, but it's tough. She trains 3 times a week too with a personal trainer, just to gain weight and functional strength in a healthy way.

@@Henry_Jr_Watsson hope she gets there :D

S H A M E L E S S! She needs more calories then obviously... No wonder she’s maintaining/losing whilst eating 1400 when she’s also exercising.

@@idk-ch7hj you know some people also just have that type of metabolism that make them like not able to gain weigh, she might have that type like i do ^^

... I'm 55kg and I'm 13 (160 cm tall) I'm a fatass 😣😣😣😣 all my fats are in my face and thighs

Dayummmmm!

Agreed

TSAHH

No tampon!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

If only it was that simple. Half the kpop fandom wouldn't exist they're all interested in the girls and guys and not their actual music

actual title : how to ruined people's life

It is talked about but the issue is how KPOP is compared to how Lou Pearlman played these same tactics in the United States for his idols like the late Aaron Carter. It's just we have not seen the specific examples for KPOP.
