Today, we are doing something a bit different and cover the huge ZPOP Dream project that was first launched in 2018. After one year of successful promotions, the members were sent back home and the project was given up on completely. We'll take a look at where things went wrong and how the ZPOP brand tried to implement itself on the music market.

The first downfall started when the company decided that a group that based in Korea, trained in a Korean system, learning Korean culture, all of that but no Korean member
And none of them comfortable in speaking Korean because the company debuted them in just 4 months of training
Actually some of the members do speak Korean. Priyanka, for example, is fluent in Korean.
@@bubba94290 yep
@@bubba94290 They said COMFORTABLE speaking Korean. You can technically know Korean but not be fully comfortable speaking it.
@@hwangbigdong i think Joanne is the only one that can speak comfortably among them. I agree, the downfall was they can't promote in Korea. Adding a Korean member in both groups could easily get them to Korean shows. Then just create Korean songs (for Korean audience) and English songs (for international audiences)
Honestly that is true, they would get really popular if they made a korean album song too, look at sb19 they are popular in korea, you can't promote in korea by only english, the company ruined them
I feel like if their company took longer to wait out their debut and allow fans to continue to get to know them through covers and their content, they probably would’ve built a demanding enough fanbase that would’ve been able to support the group through the pandemic and petition for the company to manage them better than what happened in the end.
Thank you for watching & sharing your opinion! We aren't sure about training longer as that would mean even less time before the start of the pandemic for them as debuted groups. Its also crazy how the uproar of the fandom (which there was!) was so completely ignored by the company.. they literally gave up after 3 months.
Thank you again for sharing your opinion, we appreciate it! ❤️
yes
Being a *Galaxz* (fandom name) here, wanted to say that we fans had already sent mass emails to their company, nobody even cared or responded. I came to know they went hiatus some years ago. If they can't go hiatus, then who will? You didn't read it wrong! ofc, they would go hiatus, 'cause they didn't promote their idols..
They were soo good, even after less training months! Priyanka (Indian) was the translator of the group, who actually can understand and speak Korean better than others. Like that, they were learning from beginning. Many Koreans hated them due to presence of mixed Asians who are non-Koreans under a Korean label. *Even after all these, they debuted in Korea. Things were going smoothly. They came to India for a concert under VH1. They went to Indonesia. They had fan-meet and everything was working* until Corona hit- We fans are extremely upset about ghosting of their company and avoiding us. I mean their future is gone? *Note to mention* ; few members had already left Zpop and pursued their own careers from scratch again! Idk what else to say, rather than just A HOPE! I miss my babies soo much!
I think the company should have taken a route similar to Now United (A group with 18 members and have most singles in English apart from 3-4 in the languages of the member's home country), NU is still quite successful though they have its own problems like uneven promotion of members, unequal line distributions and screentime.
@@disgurstingshat10 Others still have promotions in their own countries but the most I'm worried about its Priyanka, She didn't win the kpop world festival only to get her talent wasted
honestly their concept was so cool... like aiming to create 2 groups w members from all countries in Asia is an amazing idea, the members in Z-Girls were all gorgeous and they were all vocally strong... man i wish they succeeded 😭 Priyanka owns my heart
@LUNARIS if they actually were able to continue with the next generations, then more asian countries could be included
@LUNARIS lol no need to insult my intelligence, i accidentally left the word different and meant to say from all *different* countries in Asia
@LUNARIS And you still went double down with it.
@LUNARIS they did say "aiming to". not that there are only 7 countries in asia. they didn't even imply it in their comment if you read it and understood it 💀
Asia has 48 countries, not 45. ANyways, these concept reminds me so much of 48g / AKB48 groups in Asia
i had no idea how insanely popular they were during their debut, i mean having chung ha, apink and monsta x all performing at their showcase concert is insane 😭
im pretty sure their company paid those popular artists to perform on their showcase concert to ATTRACT audiences so that they'll watch their debut performances, i mean as long as u have money anything is possible
@@nuwin7114 of course they paid them
You paid them enough they will come perform for your birthday. Its nothing to do with popularity. It actually shows lack of confidence to have other artists to perform for their own showcase
@@inhim05 true 😭
Its actually kinda embarrassing in my opinion … like performance of the guests star outshine their own performance
They have India and Indonesia, two of the biggest market in the world, and the four other countries were also GIANT yet they still heavily promoted in south korean, wack!
Ikr
They kept making them do korean stuff instead they could have let members have some of their own countries culture inc in their activities so that they could grab attention from their respective countries fans
By Now, I Think that It's Even More of a Blessing for Z-Stars Not Promoting Themselves in K-Pop 🎵🎶 Programs Within 🇰🇷 Before the Worldwide Covid-19 Pandemic Began. As a Former GalaxZ Myself, this Gave Me a Great Impression that Z-Stars was Able to Find its Own Unique Colour of 🎵🎶 Style & Genre Without Using the K-Pop Label at All in Originality. (Along with Having All of its 14 Original Members Staying True to Themselves by Promoting at Some of their Respective 🏠 Countries Along with the Promotion of their Respective Cultures.)
As for XG, I Never Hate All of its Members on Personal Basis at All. However, its Weird Marketing Strategy Gave Some Members of the Public (Including Me) a 👎 Impression & Confussion that XG Only Wanted to Use Almost Everything Related to K-Pop Except for the Language Itself. (Along with Seemingly Not Staying True to Oneself by Pretending to Be Someone Else Instead.) Its Management Company Should Change its Marketing Strategy via the Following Ways:
1. Change its Country Base of Marketing from 🇰🇷 to 🇺🇲 (or At Least Another Country Which a Major English-Speaking Population) ASAP (if XG Really has No Intention to Sing All of its Songs in the 🇰🇷 Language at All) and
2. Re-singing All of its 🇬🇧 Language Songs into Japanese Versions & Promote Them Within the J-Pop 🎵🎶 Industry in 🇯🇵 Itself.
While It's Also Ok to have a Non-Korean Asian Pop 🎵🎶 Groups Being Inspired by K-Pop in Terms of Music-Wise, Both GalaxZ & Hardcore XG Fans have Almost Complete Opposite Nature Mostly in Terms of Personality-Wise.
Most GalaxZ have Friendly Nature & Do Not Engage in Fanwars with Actual K-Pop Fandoms. (By Not Only Being Respectful Towards the Latter Group, But Also the Fandoms of Other Asian Pop 🎵🎶 Genres.)
On the Other Hand, Hardcore XG Fans are Almost as Similar as the Respective, Toxic Sub-Divisions of Actual K-Pop Fandoms. They have an Sense of Overprotectiveness Towards XG, But Misused it by Inserting Themselves Into the Spaces of Actual 4G K-Pop 👧 Groups' Respective Fandoms. [By Starting & Creating Unnecessary Fanwars Via Commenting and/or Replying Someone Else's Comment with the Following Sentence, "XXX (Name of an XG Member) is More Prettier and/or Talented than xxx (Respective Name of a 4G 👧 Group Member) in Terms of a Specific Skill(s)."] Within this Monday (13-2-23), I Accidentally Angered a Hardcore XG Fan on a Baby Monster-Related Video's Comment Section (by Replying to Him/Her that XG Shouldn't Be Considered as an Actual K-Pop Group at All in an Unhappy Manner). Not Only He/She Replied by Misunderstanding that I am Narrow-Minded Racist (for Disallowing XG to Promote Themselves in K-Pop 🎵🎶 Programs), But I Also Ended Up Misunderstood by my Own Family as Well. If That Hardcore XG Fan Didn't Insert Him/Herself Into the Baby Monster-Related Video's Comments' Section, It Would have Been More Peaceful Instead.
Kpop no.1 main market is still Korea
such a shame too because "Streets of Gold" was a BOP!!!
Ikrrr
The problem with this concept is that even though they emphasize that they want to create a z-pop consist different Asian idols, but in a way, it is clearly company’s intention to follow k-pop music business model. So that why they unconsciously/passively compete with other k-pop group. Plus massive target listeners are probably all k-pop fans so.
Yea its the dilemma c pop and new jpop has. You can’t beat kpop by copying kpop. Has to come up something very different. The real strength of Kpop is its competition system thru 6 music shows and several ranking systems. This ecological system force kpop groups fiercely competitive and core fans excited. Its almost like cheering for sports team.
@@inhim05 it is extremely interesting when you comments on the k-pop system. It is almost like K-pop slowly become more global. Company now start recruiting thai, Chinese, Japanese trainees and do more English song. It is literally a z-pop concept. I guess k-pop companies are the only one can make it more Asian globalize
@@jamesnato8844 Yes there will be more trainees from over seas for sure
Imagine they all adding their own languages. Because in the end who knows Korean but we read subtitles and artists can show their full potential in their mother tongue.
This should be Top Comment
I honestly feel like if Covid did not happen they would of still had a better chance to go a little further. It’s such a shame their concept seemed so interesting
Yeah, even though they weren’t famous in Korea they amassed a solid international fanbase for their concept. AleXa is actually thriving on the international kpop market, I thought that zpop could too If the pandemic didn’t ruin their travel/visas.
The thing is.. They have mostly online fans in the begining.. So if they (the company plan) enganged with online content.. Still.. the fanbase will grow..
But look on the bright side. Carlyn’s cute baby girl wouldn’t be in this world. ☺️
@@ofcoursewhynot4259 I follow some of the members till now and Carlyn looks very happy, the other members are either vlogging or releasing music/covers.
I actually miss them so much!!
Also even they're training period it's short, but they're it's soooo talented... And they're vocal ability it's above average kpop group, and also their so sync in dance group!
The Line up member it's perfect
Finally someone talked about them! i have been waiting for this, thet could have been so big if they were promoted well and the pandemic did no mercy to them, hope they get better recognition if they ever decide to make a comeback
Thank you so much for watching! And yes, they indeed deserve better..
Me too! Tbh some of the members also have their own fanbase.. (Some had debuted on their own country) but instead of keeping them engaging with the project.. The company didnt!
Such a shame
I even heard that until now the agency has not given any statement regarding the future of zboys and zgirl
Members leave the group one by one, at this point I feel it's better to officially disband rather than hang them up without any clarity 🤦♀️
Seriously like i am from the northeast of India and you will find most of the k-pop lovers know about zpop. It's just the pandemic that killed their hopes. With just 2 songs from each group they were already internationally popular among people's. Like i am no kpop stan but i do liked their group. They were chaos and that's what we liked about them, no second personality and free spirited. Still can't get over vania live.
Sorry for my English.
i really liked the song by the zpop girls and had it on my playlist for a while but it either kept being removed from spotify or re-released on it which became annoying to keep up to
Oh you're right, we totally forgot to mention the Spotify disaster. The albums were re-released and Z-Girl's debut was only available as instrumental and even when being asked multiple times, DIVTONE did nothing about it. Thanks for adding it & for watching! ❤️
Really
It means that they disbanded soon
Carlyn is so famous here in Philippines as a TikToker and Singer and now she already had a baby with her husband. She's happy now but I miss Z-girls a lot 😭
she had a baby??! WHAT?!
@@honestival yes she is
@@aejanxd489 that amazing
i hope she continues singing at least.. her voice is beautiful 😭
@@honestivalYesss she gave birth to a daughter named Lakeisha back in 2021
To be honest it was BS that broadcasting companies banned them from performing. Multiple people sang 100% english songs on the shows with no issues. Rose's song On the Ground was purely english. It was honestly doublestandards.
True. SK has some big social issues
Seems like if it's one or the other it's fine, but if you have neither, it's not allowed. you can be Korean and promote w an English song (like Rose or Momoland), or you can be non-Korean and promote w a Korean song (like WayV or EXP Edition), but a group w no Korean members and no Korean lyrics in their song cannot promote on broadcast.
@@segarasan there's actually an exception for the no korean members no korean lyrics, which is the case for the New Hope Club. They're all white, non-asian, not even korean based, singing in complete english but was still allowed to perform. So yeah, the rule is BS.
What we expect from a country which have a big amount of racism.
As much as I love K-pop, I gotta admit that Korea is a country with most of the people being racists or xenophobic. You see, the members of K-pop groups are only from a few countries such as Japan, China, Taiwan and Korea, obviously. It is like Asia is just these countries which is honestly ridiculous. And their reason is that "people from other countries (other than East Asian countries) don't fit KBS so they can't be idols.". Majority of the K-pop fans are from countries where there are no K-pop auditions and many of these fans want to become K-pop idols too, but they can't because neither they fit KBS (THEY ARE STILL BEAUTIFUL.) nor K-pop auditions are held in their countries. Black idol Fatou (BlackSwan (formerly Rania/BP Rania)) gets hate for her dark skin tone (She gets hate from some international stans too). Lisa from BLACKPINK got hate for being Thai. See, the hate towards foreign idols is endless.
Wonder how much having a Korean member and songs in Korean would have changed the outcome? Nothing to say they couldnt have released the songs in English as well, as many kpop artists have done, but having the Korean side of things may have helped out with music shows and more.
For sure the company and pandemic didnt help.
Or.. They focused on the international wholly
Some already have their own fanbase on their own country anyway. (Some already debuted in their own countries)
@@bellasutomo4092 that is true, a few would have had and prob do still have there own fan base in there home countries. I quite liked the idea behind the international line ups
It was an ambitious plan but really requires a top notch agency to manage it well and it sounds like that was lacking. I bet someone will try it again eventually.
Ah my heart, Streets of Gold is such a banger. I listen to that song to this day. I honestly expected this but its still a shame.
It's so good!! The vocals, the chorus, the MV - everything was perfect!
Sameeeee
It's still one of my favorite songs
Same
Even I still have that song on my playlist :)
I absolutely loved them. Especially Z-Gilrs. They were basically like a precursor to XG in my eyes. I was so sad that they didn't comeback after the pandemic

As someone who auditioned and was one of the 10 Finalists from India from second generation, I feel upset to see this project cease to exist. But I am trying to carry this legacy by helping people know about the concept so that Zpop goes down in history as one of the best thought out idol concepts, atleast for us Indians
Thank you for sharing your experience & keeping the spirit alive. I hope you'll get to showcase your talent elsewhere! ❤️
…but it wasn’t a well-thought-out concept. With all due respect to the men and women who participated as talent( including you)…it was obviously just a money grab for the companies involved. SKorea has created this amazing industry, Kpop, and developed a highly successful training method and system, and has developed some of the best choreographers, producers, artists in terms of global entertainment…but it took decades at this point and it took so much hard work and perseverance. Now that kpop has reached a global audience, everyone and their mother is trying to make a quick buck from it too and it’s highly disrespectful. How can they try to take advantage of the popularity of kpop, use the kpop system, promote within SKorea…yet not have any Korean members? It’s disrespectful to the nth degree. They want to promote on Korean music shows yet refuse to study Korean to the point of fluency prior to coming on a SKorean show?? So basically the company wants all of the perks (popularity and support from amazing kpop fans, money from the kpop industry, music show popularity,etc) without doing any of the work (i.e. speaking Korean…singing in KOREAN on a…KOREAN MUSIC SHOW lol🙄🙄🙄) OR showing any respect to SKorea, the kpop industry including the numerous hard-working artists within the industry, Korean culture, and Korean people overall. Please stop this madness. If you’re a fan of kpop and wish to debut in the industry…do what other non-Korean artists did- LEARN KOREAN, TRAIN in SKorea in a kpop Ecompany, learn and respect KOREAN CULTURE, and work hard as a trainee to develop your talents and work until you debut. Period. Otherwise…debut in your own nation’s pop music industry if you refuse to learn another nation’s language and culture. Kpop involves Korean culture. It’s a huge aspect of the industry so it makes sense that kpop idols would be living in SKorea and be immersed in the culture. I really don’t understand why it is so hard for genZ folks to grasp this concept. If I wanted to debut in the Bollywood industry, I would pursue training in India…I would become fluent in Hindi by working my ass off to show respect toward the culture…and I would debut IN INDIA. It’s a simple concept. I hope this shows a different perspective on the topic that you can consider. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Now we have Indian K-Pop Idols like BlackSwan’s Sriya
@@krisuler7734 I know and u understand your point of view. This audition was similar to what I would like to do as a performer and hence I decided to try auditioning for it. I don’t actually have an interest in entertainment in general. Just Zpop or idol culture suited the kind of performer I wanted to be. I have moved on and found my true career option in the cinematics industry and I am more than happy here
I feel if they wanted to stay based in SK they should've also released Korean songs to promote there. Or do mixed English-Korean songs.
Also the idea of making a gen 2 when gen 1 had barely started was really the wrong move. I hope they are all well now. And freed from the company!
hi mate x(aka everglow-up, neo cheryl technology, planet minjae, fairygowon, jennieluv, uahage, tatya13, chaebin n out, minacore, rosiexyeji, chaehatesyou, wjsnbae, yvesuslovesyou, mushrooms for this multistan, pink lemonaze, minaminaj, did someone say draco malfoy, etc, all accs for who you still buy subs just to look popular) still desperate to look nice after you got exposed with your ha te accs giselle outsold all basic rappers, ms lolly, jee bubbles, Aespa outsold bts and blackpink, love yeseo, TWICE BIGGEST GROUP etc
love how you sick hater really tried to save this channel with talking about monetizing your account, when you still buy subs and views for all your accounts...you clearly dont even know how monetizing ones yt channel even works and seeing how you still expose yourself with all your hate accounts, youre even too dmb to ever do something like this fairygowon
@@pruitv2857 Hey, I've heard of some hater going around with multiple accounts, but I never knew "everglow-up" was one of them. Are they the same person as that Kpop opinions channel of the same name, if you know who I'm talking about? (Most likely not, but I want to be sure)
🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍.
@@imjusthereman8052 if you mean everglow up then yes, she admitted it when she made the exact same slandering video against the ones who exposed her, along with mixing up her accounts multiple times, like posting a vid with planet minjaes intro in everglow ups channel, or in another one, or being able to read each others notifications about replies, so whenever one account got exposed, she was able to know about it right away and appear in channels she never visited with the other accounts to defend herself and you can also see how she is hiding all of her main accounts from all the bigger channels and from the official channels, thats not how real stans behave, like everglow up never been seen in everglows official channel
i think the issue was expending so quickly. they put money into an app, into gen 2 reality shows, etc. in reality, this concept is expensive, but cool. you have to bank on the fact that fans want to see these kids navigate other countries and be excited about either sharing their culture or experiencing other people's cultures. this would make it so expensive to cart out a 5 member group let alone two 7 member groups. making them based in korea is an odd choice for an english language group when countries like thailand, indian, and the philipines, all have a lot of people who have english as their second language not to mention probably cheaper to live in. singapore's first language is english. with no korean member at all on top of english only music, im not surprised they werent allowed on music shows.
this group 100% had potential. specifically priyanka has so much star power. but the eyes of the management team had too many stars in it and it clouded their judgement.
edit: i was made aware that singapore's first language is english. thank you for educating me.
English is Singapore's FIRST language!!!!!
@@crystal8537 thank you for the correction! i was ignorant to this and ill add in the edit.
I think Priyanka is not white enough to fit in Korean standards ( sorry racist standards)
thank you for covering this group! i remember their debut, i used to be a fan for a short period of time, i had no idea of all that had happened. So much wasted potential
Thank you so much for watching! And yes, they indeed all deserve better - the outcome is really heartbreaking..
literally kept up with them as much as possible even when they were obviously headed towards disbandment. ): ever since they announced gen 2 despite barely having a first comeback made me think “oh so i shouldnt get attached bc theres no way this is gonna work and even if it does the idols i like are going to get buried and have to compete with other generations for the small compay’s funds. dang.” it was pure mismanagement.
Guys there will be Indian member (Shreya Lenka! stage name: SRIYA) joining the group BLACKSWAN, she will be the official first Indian kpop idol ever! Go support her 🇮🇳🦢
Aww I didn't know that an Indian girl will join them ! that's cool ^^
@@yameno_3900 yesss spreading the word I am excited for them to comeback soon with her added 💕🦢
Why they aren't debuting? It's been long!!! I want both Gabrielly and Shriya to join.
@@disgurstingshat10 they are, we find out who made it into the group this 26th coming
Wait a damn minute dont tell me its the same blackswan fatou is from didnt this grp already have multiple change of line up well hope Sriya does well and am kinda excited to see her.
carlyn is super talented and charismatic so i'm not surprised divtone is reluctant to let her go. i'll miss seeing z-pop groups perform but i'm glad i watched this video since it gave me some closure and understanding of the situation.
I think they should have added at least one korean member to the group and since they were based in Korea they should have released at least korean versions of their songs as well,,, also they shouldn't have sent the members back in their home country, nobody knew how long the pandemic was sending them away ultimately led to lesser group content, they couldn't record songs or any variety content or shoot mv. if they had sent them they should have created group content through zoom as well, that would have at least kept the content coming. and right when travel ban lifted despite the long quarantine they should have brought the members back
RIGHT not to mention knetz realistically would never care about a group with barely any Korean members let alone NONE it’s just so unrealistic seeing how they treat groups with only a few foreigners 😭 basing the group in South Korea was a mistake
it is really interesting how some groups managed to thrive during the pandemic while others died off. i think it really does come down to management. so many groups started focusing on online content which should be pretty easy to make. like a vocal/dance cover or a vlog? fancalls? i get that not everyone can get an online concert but there is so much more to do! sending everyone home was clearly a mistake. if they all stayed in korea they still could've made content and songs just like any other group.
seeing the state of the project today is depressing.
IT IS! I was such a big fan of the project and its members and was even confident that they'd reunite & come back. Seeing it all in shambles is heartbreaking..
Did they abandon the project all together? They haven’t posted since October 2021 😐
@@karenbarrientos9828 nothing official has happened yet. fans can only speculate that the project has been dropped.
They were really famous and there was so much potential, its such a shame members are already leaving due to lack of promotions. I still watch their contents from time to time i hope they come back 😔 GalaxZs are waiting
I followed them from the start, till the end. Kinda liked the songs they released and they were actually quite funny and sweet.
Sad to see them go down like this. 😭
Pryanka was amazing... so sad the company was a mess and the concept half baked.
I think the concept is not half-baked
But rather poorly executed
i am so upset they didn’t grow more. i was so into them! i still support the members and i hope they do things in the future!
Same
ZPop was my life once. Just when they were picking up steam, the pandemic happened. The had great potential and they were fun too.
i really wish this project had survived tbh, it was a unique concept. it set them apart from other groups, and it seems it was something that really could have been refreshing in an over-saturated industry
Covid was literally the best time to build social media. All they had to do was get all the members decent enough camera equipment, including the 2nd gen, and let them build their individual social media on TH-cam, IG, and TikTok. They could have done anything: covers, beauty, dance, cooking, reaction vids, vlogs... literally anything because they already had a growing fanbase that was eager to support them. They could have done training through zoom and recorded those for the group's official pages, along with continuing with vlogs and covers like before.
They could have even did a mentor thing where an og member and the 2nd gen who are from the same country could doing things together whenever their country's law allowed and upload those too. e.g. the OG India members and the 2nd gen Indian members could have small meet-ups or video chats and stuff and train together, when possible, maybe even vlog getting their Covid test together and stuff like that. This would have given them a chance to bond and get the fans even more invested.
During this time, the management team should have been looking for songs and comeback concepts so that when 2021 rolled around and things started to free up a bit, they could have recorded something quickly that would hold the fans over until 2022 when they would have had an even larger fanbase. Their comeback would have done really well. They really could have been successful.
I remember first hearing about this when I was a nogizaka46 stan circa 2019 and thinking "why would mahiro leave nogizaka at the heights of its popularity to be a nugu in korea" I mean she def wasnt one of the most popular members in nogi either but still 😭
btw this project reminds me of now united which is basically the same concept of a bunch of people from different countries in a group except its coed and iirc not divided in girls unit/boys unit, I think they're still together? maybe? been a while since I heard anyone mention them
Yeah Nogizaka46 is one of the many many AKB48 sister groups if I’m not mistaken
@LUNARIS ah ok 👍
I think they’re in hiatus? I only remember Krystian being a part of Produce Chinese version
NOW UNITED are still together. They just had a tour in Brazil (of course) and Portugal and they just released a new song Heartbreak On The Dancefloor
@@user-qj2dl1ot4t no they are not in hiatus
Honestly they seemed so successful, it’s unfortunate they didn’t last as long
it sucks that pandemic happens. That's when members starts to leave. ZGIRLS only left with 3 members since Carlyn will not comeback and ZBOYS only have 4 members. They are likely to disband. Especially that their previous company is nowhere to be found.
@@kimjunkyu8304 They even opened an audition before for second generation
You're joking
I loved z girls sooo much I miss them alot!!! 😭😭😭
If the remaining 7 could have created a coed group, that seems like something the fandom would have welcomed, even with the groups beginning to die out. Or even combining the members of the second-gen that didn't debut with the OG members that remain to have the original fandom there as some form of support for the new groups.
IMO, another factor is also the English language is actually not the member's mother language. In some videos I watched several members find difficulties in expressing themselves in English even though they understand English. Or even talking to one another at the dorm, might be difficult for them. No matter how fluent, it's not their mother language. So to speak English on daily basis might be an exhausting task for the members themselves.
It's also would be so difficult to interact with fans and staff in SK since English speaking ability is not common, and even still so many people in SK find speaking English a rude gesture. So at the same time, they have to learn so many languages and cultures. They speak English frequently, think in their mother language, and have to learn Korean to survive in SK but never gonna use it on their stage career.
Why is english seen as rude in Korea?? English is literally INTERNATIONAL language! I am from Singapore & v proud that English is 1st language here :)
@@crystal8537 I think it can be taken as rude by some people that instead of trying to speak or sing in Korean, they are promoting in English while in Korea. Obviously it's not, but there was a lot of debate when they were active if they could even be considered a kpop group since they didn't speak the language or even have a korean member.
@@crystal8537 ofc
@@crystal8537 ….lord have mercy. Please educate yourself and read up on the HISTORY of exactly WHY English is so common in so many nations in Asia and Africa…mhmmm…🙄🙄 and it is rude to refuse to learn the language of the nation in which you want to work in…promote in..and get money from. 😩😩🫣🤔
@@crystal8537 😬 wow.....
I’ve been following them since their debut honestly their music SLAPPED it’s a shame that things went like this maybe If the pandemic hadn’t come around the situation would better :(
Also THANK YOU SO MUCH for shedding light on the zpop groups I really haven’t seen any ktuber talk about them yet so really I’m grateful
Thank you for watching!
As a person who loves learning different languages and culture, i was so happy when i discovered them, i got addicted. Mavin and Vanya introduced me to indonesian culture and music which i'm not really familiar before same with the other members. I learned a lot of different languages, they're really an interesting individuals. I'm just happy that i heard Josh more often because he's friend with Ken from SB19. I missed them so much. If you see i uploaded videos of them before here in my channel 😭
When I tell u I was literally counting down for this video
Thank you so much for waiting, we really appreciate it! ❤️
It's Christmas is such a good song and has the potential to be a classic. I listen to it even when it's not Christmas
I love Z-Girls, they were quite popular when they debut. I always wish a stage presentation on Korean music shows 😭💕
By Now, I Think that It's Even More of a Blessing for Z-Stars Not Promoting Themselves in K-Pop 🎵🎶 Programs Within 🇰🇷 Before the Worldwide Covid-19 Pandemic Began. As a Former GalaxZ Myself, this Gave Me a Great Impression that Z-Stars was Able to Find its Own Unique Colour of 🎵🎶 Style & Genre Without Using the K-Pop Label at All in Originality. (Along with Having All of its 14 Original Members Staying True to Themselves by Promoting at Some of their Respective 🏠 Countries Along with the Promotion of their Respective Cultures.)
As for XG, I Never Hate All of its Members on Personal Basis at All. However, its Weird Marketing Strategy Gave Some Members of the Public (Including Me) a 👎 Impression & Confussion that XG Only Wanted to Use Almost Everything Related to K-Pop Except for the Language Itself. (Along with Seemingly Not Staying True to Oneself by Pretending to Be Someone Else Instead.) Its Management Company Should Change its Marketing Strategy via the Following Ways:
1. Change its Country Base of Marketing from 🇰🇷 to 🇺🇲 (or At Least Another Country Which a Major English-Speaking Population) ASAP (if XG Really has No Intention to Sing All of its Songs in the 🇰🇷 Language at All) and
2. Re-singing All of its 🇬🇧 Language Songs into Japanese Versions & Promote Them Within the J-Pop 🎵🎶 Industry in 🇯🇵 Itself.
While It's Also Ok to have a Non-Korean Asian Pop 🎵🎶 Groups Being Inspired by K-Pop in Terms of Music-Wise, Both GalaxZ & Hardcore XG Fans have Almost Complete Opposite Nature Mostly in Terms of Personality-Wise.
Most GalaxZ have Friendly Nature & Do Not Engage in Fanwars with Actual K-Pop Fandoms. (By Not Only Being Respectful Towards the Latter Group, But Also the Fandoms of Other Asian Pop 🎵🎶 Genres.)
On the Other Hand, Hardcore XG Fans are Almost as Similar as the Respective, Toxic Sub-Divisions of Actual K-Pop Fandoms. They have an Sense of Overprotectiveness Towards XG, But Misused it by Inserting Themselves Into the Spaces of Actual 4G K-Pop 👧 Groups' Respective Fandoms. [By Starting & Creating Unnecessary Fanwars Via Commenting and/or Replying Someone Else's Comment with the Following Sentence, "XXX (Name of an XG Member) is More Prettier and/or Talented than xxx (Respective Name of a 4G 👧 Group Member) in Terms of a Specific Skill(s)."] Within this Monday (13-2-23), I Accidentally Angered a Hardcore XG Fan on a Baby Monster-Related Video's Comment Section (by Replying to Him/Her that XG Shouldn't Be Considered as an Actual K-Pop Group at All in an Unhappy Manner). Not Only He/She Replied by Misunderstanding that I am Narrow-Minded Racist (for Disallowing XG to Promote Themselves in K-Pop 🎵🎶 Programs), But I Also Ended Up Misunderstood by my Own Family as Well.

@@ly_smileylass1427 Well, XG's CEO was a k-pop idol, so I completely understand why they use de K-pop market. Btw, Japan is always open their market to korean idols or western artist, why Korea cannot?
Z-girls would last more years if the k-pop industry were more open 🥺
It’s so sad cause I actually liked zgirls and they were very talented
i guess i 'm glad they tried something out of the box .
i hope the company learns from their mistakes
and does something better in the future .
I'm praying for their comeback 😢but i know it will never happen again 😢

OMG! Now I know the guy I can blame for LIPBUBBLEs disbandment!!
A video about LIPBUBBLE would be sooo cool, but I think listing everything the members did after LB's disbandment would take like ½h...
OMGGG OR WHEN ZENITH SAID LIPBUBBLE WOULD HAVE A MAY COMEBACK and instead of a comeback... we got a disbandment announcement
I know one former LB was in GP999 but that didn’t go well
@@gwenmloveskpopandmore yesss!!! That was Yoo Dayeon a true icon!!!
Besides that:
Sion was a member of SATURDAY, but her comapny did her dirty
Ina tried to redebut under ALL-S GIRLS, but after some... stuff, they didnt debut
Haea, after having her solo debut with "Paris Party" tried to redebut as a part of the YOURS project... but there was even more STUFF with this mess adn they never debuted.
Hanbi is now a part of te dance team RD'z
Eunbyeol is now a member of the girl group MAKA'MAKA
Winy after going viral for her appearence in a show with her dead brother, started a vlogging channel with a former A-daily member, they even started releasing music as a project duo UNC
Lia had a solo debut with "White Dream" & is a member of the cheerleading group TWINKLE
Ella had a solo debut with "OOTD" (the most unerrated song ever released), she even had a comeback. She is also in TWINKLE.
From all 10 girls only Mirae never tried to redebut
@@aprils1888 oh wow thanks for the info. I just knew about the Saturday, MakaMaka, and Weus girls one but didn’t bother to know about the other members
@@aprils1888 oh is Ella CherryB?! I had no idea that was her
Back in the WANNA_B & LIPBUBBLE days. The only way we could tell if a member was or wasnt in a group was by looking if their IG @ changed or if they deleted the groups name from their account desc.
Before I get crazy over SB19(the most famous p-pop now)..I started it here on Z-pop since I’m josh bias and one member of Sb19 which is ken( yes his my bias as well as u can see on my profile) He was his dance groupmate before and they were both main dancer on their own new groups.. I really like josh, he’s so gentle yet funny..I even remember how I adore josh and gai closeness.. Gai is the rapper and his so charismatic as well.. the sleepy one..all of the members have a great chemistry despite their age gap and different cultures.. I also like the indonesian and vietnam closeness.. I mean I ship them all in a friendly way and they have the youngest one from thailand.. He’s so cute also but when pandemic started Zpop don’t give any content anymore.. It’s so sad I’ve waited for their content for so long.. I open YT just to watch their contents but still they don’t give a new content.. and thats the moment.. when YT recommends me SB19 content.. I tried to watch it since I heard that josh has a friend there but I don’t know his face and name until He became my bias without knowing that his really the friend of joshuel zpop.. One time I stalk ken’s instagram and I suddenly saw josh there.. Its been a year since I became sb19 fan, the moment I saw him.. I just realize that the friend of josh that I looking for before became my bias without knowing he really is.. but when I saw josh I remember everything in Zpop and I suddenly felt sad and then I go to their channel but then.. There’s no new.. they’ve gone I even saw carlyn teaching new Ppop group and last month Sb19 had their first live concert after pandemic and Joshuel was there.. I even wish he should’ve joined Sb19 instead but yeah maybe it’s just not his career path..
your videos are so great! i remember being obsessed with the z-girls song streets of gold, it’s such a good song
Actually, one of the Z-boys members from the Philippines which is Josh or also known here in the Philippine with the name Joshuel already auditioned in one of the talent show that is looking for PPOP idols who will debut after the show. He's part of the top 12 now and later 5:00 pm will the finale. Please support him 🥺
Thanks for updating about them, its been a long long time since ive heard about them and I really liked their songs :(
I love Z-girls, their song was a bop, and its fun to see a lot of diffrent colored skin women in a group, representing a lot of shade of asia~ its a shame that their carreer has to stop for horrible management tho, they had a lot of potential :')
There are tons of groups and soloists from each of the countries where the members were from …you can listen to them ✌🏻
Wow, you've awakened an old memory with this one. I literally remember when this group was announced and a lot of people being hyped for them. You inspired me to write a blog about this.
THANK U SO MUCH !!!!!!!! for making this video cause i was searching them up again a few months ago and no one was literally talking about it
I feel bad for the 2nd gen of Ztars. They were supposed to travel to Korea to train there but a few weeks later pandemic happened. I watched their auditions. And was excited to see their debut. I thought they will be more prepared than the 1st zstars.
I love them and I really miss them all together, but it's only logical that lots of them left because of the lack of activity when lots of other groups worked in online content and stuff like that. It must have felt horrible for them that just when they were becoming more popular then everything turned upside down... I used to have a lot of fun watching their lives, the content they uploaded and even interacting with them on instagram, they were so close to the fans. I hope everything goes well for them in their separate ways, I'll always hold the zpop days in my memory :')
Looking back now it makes me so sad how much potential they had :(
i remember the time when they didn't even debut yet and there were so many people waiting for their debut. Dissapointing and sad to see the members leaving one by one because of the hiatus but it also makes me happy knowing they dont have to be a part of a company that cant even promote in the country they are based in. I wish the members a great career and I look forward to their individual activites. This is coming from a Galax-z.
Zpop idols are so talented...it is so sad that their company misused it...they could have give them more songs and combacks...and come up with unique strategies to make zpop popular. Tbh their songs are so good and catchy..goshhh I feel so bad for them..
I think it was for some unforseen challenges, first was when pandemic came. Every member came from another country, making it impossible to make ends and meet together. Then some members already left and some are already married and have kids, making it more impossible to continue through.
There is still a chance to reunite tho, if their company didnt disband them
Now United is a similar group to Zpop but they still brought up songs and all..It's a different case that most members arent highlighted tho
THE INTRO CHANGE STAN ALICE
STAN ALICE!
I was just thinking about them yesterday, thank you for the video!!
What you waiting for was a bop, such as a sad outcome for them :(
They were so popular at the beginning, but like I'm not gonna lie, it was going to kind of fall off the face of the earth. The company could have boosted them during covid, especially the fact that they could individually promote online whether they were together or not. The only reason the members started leaving is because they weren't getting money because there weren't any promotions. It could have been big if the company had better management. Also, the fact that they were all from different parts of Asia as well just made it difficult with the management they had. We have to remember that they are bringing in money from this because it is a job, no matter what way you look at it, if they weren't getting promoted, they weren't bringing in money, 14 people and barely any money coming in, the pay would have been vastly different between members and eventually some of them were probably fed up and not enjoying it anymore because they literally had nothing to do. The concept was really cool though, like I said before, they would have been big if it wasn't for poor management.
literally been waiting for this one all week
Thank you so much for waiting, means a lot! ❤️
I was so supportive of them and wanted them to gain recognition to go forward but Covid fcked everything up :(
Carlyn, the leader of Z-Girls already have a family and a cute baby girl.
10:06 I wonder if that ban could've been avoided if they had included a Korean member. I remember o21 being able to perform on showchampion even though they only had one Korean member. also, many kpop groups promoted english songs on the music shows as well...
damn, I had no idea they were planning a second generation.
I thought the pandemic killed the group, but I had no idea they were mismanaged like this. they could've still thrived if they kept posting content on their yt channel. I'll miss them, it's a shame it didn't work out.
I feel bad for Z-Girls! They have so much potential and their songs are lit 🔥 I hate Zenith for the mismanage of the Z-Boys and Z-Girls! I hope they make a comeback!
Thank you for this.. i used to follow them during their debuts.. then when pandemic hits.. i kind of forgot about them.. wish them all well
I REALLY THANK YOU FOR BRINGING UP WITH A CONTENT LIKE THIS :)
I WANT THEM ALL BACK AS A GROUP....
CAN'T THEY GET INTO SOME OTHER COMPANY?
WELL THEY HAD A VERY UNIQUE CONCEPT INSPIRED BY KPOP.
I THINK ITS ALREADY THE END BUT I STILL HOPE ATLEAST THE CURRENT MEMBERS AND GEN2 WILL CONTINUE SOMEDAY.
ALL LEGENDS ARE BORN WITH THIER GREAT STRUGGLES IN THE PAST.
I HOPE EVERYTHING GET'S BETTER
I was wondering what had happened to them😭
The concept was so cool and I was waiting for their debut
That's sad for real , they're so talented ... hope they comeback again or something like that :v
New concept projects like this are a hit or miss. But imho, the pandemic was the major blow to the group's progress. They just have to move on.
Z-Pop, is incredibliy one of the most smartest and most interesting concepts of how music couldve been presented for the whole world, even when the time i heard abt the Z-Girls and Z-Boys, they all really had the potential to expand larger with their music and charms too
Great deep dive guys!! I’ve always wondered about them over the years
Thank you for watching!
This was such a well made video, congrats !!!
Thank you very much for watching! ❤️
They are so good. The vocals, the dancing and idea itself. I liked them a lot. But the pandemic hit them hard.
To be honest, the ban because they have no Korean members nor sing in Korean is a joke now that XG has promoted in national South Korean tv. None of them are Koreans and they sing in English and this is almost 3 years after Z-Stars stopped, for me that sounds weird

So Zenith company managed all those groups and failed but was still arrogant enough to join a multinational project? Talk about no self reflection… If you have a bad track record, look at why first.
Hope they come back soon with good song , seriously I was being searching like hell about them , finally I got vedio of zpop galaxy hope they come back soon
I’m still waiting for the comeback 😭
I won’t give up on them
Wow! I remember I used to root for them really bad, Joanne was my bias and when she left the group I was really sad. I really loved Z-girls T_T Thank you for making the video and keep us updated, after a long time I stopped following them and literally forgot about the project. Is so sad because the concept was really good.
Josh of ZBoys is now an aspirant of one of the first Boy group search competition in the Philippines to air in June 2022. Top class: Trainee Josh. Please support him guys!
Link?
omg i was just listening to z-girls and was wondering what happened to them!
I really miss them :/
Thanks for doing a video on them. I recently found them and found it odd how many members left and then found out one has a whole husband and kid after she left
Thank you for watching!
It was supposed to be a literal DREAM projects.. for non korean hopefulls to experience that korean popstar dream… it was supposed to be huge with great potentials..imagine having 7 countries to support the group.. the COVID PANDEMIC killed the dream..
They had so much potential!!! I was so excited for them!! I’m so sad that they’ve ended like this :(
I just wanna say that I loved the song Streets of Gold by Z-Girls but I was soooooooo upset when I remembered the song Open Your Eyes by IZ*ONE. The instrumentals are almost (if not) identical 😭😭😭. The copyrighted the heck outta that song
The fact that ZP world debuted a new GG while the whole project was left to rot annoys me the shit out of me.
I literally watched all their videos from their official channel :')
For past 2years I was always waiting that they would come back and make music😔They were all so talented...
I remember me and many fans writing comments on their variety show videos in TH-cam about make them show their own cultural music. Like Indian classical music, Indonesian and other countries must have their own native culture and music. If they had presented something different I'm sure even more Korean people would have been interested. As an Indian I've seen Korean people interested in my country. If they didn't see the same k-pop style content I'm sure they'd be more interested and know a lot of stuff about different countries.
I used to be such a huge fan of zgirls and zboys I'm glad your touching on the subject
I am waiting for their comeback 🌸🌸🦋all them members have great potential to be a star ⭐️
I genuinely loved the members! Their concept was great, their companies really did them dirty... they had the budget but didn't used it well. I also think they should've been more focused internationally than in Korea. Cause their fanbase summed from multiple Asian countries
Thank you for making this video
love your videos, plus your intro is amazing
Thank you very much! :)
