The moment you said that you were instructed to be careful and ready since EXO-M is a SM Group made me laugh so much. I don't work primarily with the on-stage and on-camera perfomances but as member of an outsourced music production (music engineering and digital products) for different kpop music group, these are the same and always the no. 1 instruction given especially when working for the big 3.
OMG girl once you said EXO-M my eyes were like (i’m not crying 😢 😢 😢) 🥺🥺🥺 Exo 9 in my eyes Exo 12 in my heart ♥️ I got into kpop because of EXO-M and my first bias ever was Kris 🖤
I went to that year’s KCON and got selected for the fansign for EXO-M. One of the best days in my life. This story makes my heart warm 🥺. We are the same age btw!
I freaked out too when she spent time learning about Nuest and she landed on EXO-M. I'm like, Girl, how many countries did u save in your previous life?
Imagine being thrown in a vehicle with EXO-M! You are so lucky to have met them when they are still complete 🥺 I always want to know what really happened back in 2014 and God knows how much I wanted to ask you but I also knew that you are not allowed to disclose any information. Anyway, happy holidays! Thank you for sharing your experience with us~ we really appreciate it! Stay healthy and happy! 💖
I've been around for long enough to know who the only fluent english speaker was even without you mentioning his name lol, but honestly you lived the dream and it was just luck??? girl teach me how to be that lucky please! Thanks for letting us know the story, I think I've been following you on instagram for a while and I was always curious about what you did and how many people you actually met :D
Company Z to Joyce: be careful this is from SM ent. ~~ SM and the power that they hold. Yes, I can agree to that as a newbie in work. You'll do all the work. I love this content.
8:45 when you mentioned EXO-M. It gives me OT12 feels. I miss these boys. Memories from the past keep coming back. Watching videos of yours and it's related to EXO. I love it.
The kpop industry even in America is tough, major props to anyone who works and can keep up with it 😅 it was fun to finally get to hear your story, I've always been curious haha!
Literally waited for years to know about this story, and trust me the whole story felt like a happy movie!! Agghh I was imagining the whole story throughout this video..thank you soo much for sharing it with us!! keep going Joycie, take love
Thank you for sharing your insights! They provide such a fascinating glimpse into the K-pop industry. Could you talk about this too? - Who paid for your flights, meals, and hotel? What would you have to pay for on your own? - Does the company provide good benefits? - Did the Korean staff ever take issue with the fact that you were a female staff and that you looked so young? Honestly, the first time I watched your video I was shocked to see you looked just like all of us :) I always imagined an older all-male staff backstage because the Korean staff are so protective of their artists.
i admit i started following you because of exo since like 2014, but stayed following you since then because you’re such a good person c’: update after finishing: this was so interesting!!
As a prod girl before, I can relate to this so much. Your story with EXO-M (I’m an EXO-L) is really cute and cinematic, I am just happy tho that I stan the right group and they are kind guys. ❤️❤️❤️
On a side note, does anyone remember Mnet America? They used to be a thing but i think it was dissolved in 2013/early 2014. lol this is triggering some random old mermories that I forgot haha
Such a wonderful story. I was smiling throughout the video. I really like your voice and I would like to hear more stories about your experiences. Also as a new Exol, I'm kinda sad that I didn't see ot12 but I'm happy to hear that you had a good first encounter with them.
I started following you on instagram and then i was so happy when i knew about your youtube channel 😍 Thank you for sharing such a great story ! I really like your way of talking so it was a pleasure listening to you ! Keep going Joycie !
I stumbled upon your channel by chance, and I love your energy so much, you’re like an older sister that I never had~ I relate so much to the introverted “I don’t wanna meet new people” mindset. when I heard you say “translator” I nearly jumped out of my seat, since my channel is literally focused on translations and I’ve been interpreting/translating for both video content and written works on the side for quite a while - albeit mostly Mandarin to English, my Korean is horrendous, haha :) I studied journalism for multiple years and work in several publications now, so I just thought it would be helpful to have interpretation on my resume, I never really thought about the possibility of pursuing a career in it. this was such an insightful video; I actually didn’t know that event venues outsourced interpreters from concert management companies, I’ve always assumed that most groups had people on staff who could help if they ever went on tour overseas. I definitely learned a lot about how everything works onsite at venues, and hey, now I have another option for employment to fall back on if needed, although I can’t imagine how much stress there would be working in the entertainment industry 24/7. thank you for sharing your experiences!! take care :)
@@Joyciekim Please share some of the nightmares too! Because many fans think it would be amazing to do this kind of work. It'll be a reality check for all
OMG HAHA my dream job is to be translator & I'm currently 18 but 19 soon in like 2 weeks time :') & tbh I love learning languages but I'm from Singapore so is hard to get a job here for translator T_T
I really enjoyed listening to your story and how it unfolded. From just hearing you tell it, I wanted to hear what else you wanted to say and subscribed. You came across as very nice and it's no wonder that you would have received so much complements, especially since you showed everyone how well you could adapt to instant changes. It would have also been very nice for your brother to hear that you did so well from day one. I was a member of Dramafever, and loved that company and all the workers from top to bottom. They mentioned the KCON in California, it was probably the same one you attended. Take Care, You will probably hear from me again! Keep Well!
I really really loved this story and I just want to thank you for sharing it with all of us. It must be kinda risky or uncomfortable for you to openly talk about it so thank you so much for your efforts!!!! Also you're so adorable and I love your smile💕 huge fan of you here🥰 have an amazing day and I hope you get better soon💫
Thank you for sharing, I would love to watch whatever you want to show as but is true that i love to hear about EXO :) I am going to summarize the video for my friends, we will need subtitles soon because they dont speak english hahaha...also I really like your voice! you are very sweet and cute...see you in the next one! Happy Chanyeol´s day :)
Wow, you are so lucky... Living a dream life of many fans out there... Good luck for the new path you're in 👍🏼👍🏼 waiting for more storytime ❤️❤️ Edit: Why are you so cute at the end 😍😍
I used to work on an exo fansite waaaay back in the day and I remember one time someone who called themselves (or we assumed) was a manager commented on our site thanking us for buying the boys icecream or something. But it wasn't our fansite that did that xD but i wonder if it had anything to do with them going to kcon in 2012.
Oh yes! Back at Kcon 2012, we went to eat at a restaurant after rehearsals, and a group of girls did send a few ice cream orders to our table for everyone to eat! That's probably what the manager was referring to.
thank you so much for sharing your story. exo m was my favourite group before some of them left, and to hear you talk about this brings back memories of the very first group that got me into kpop
You are such a sweetheart. What a great opportunity experience for your first job. The key is definitely connection. Lol. Thank you for sharing and look forward to hearing more stories.
Thank you for sharing your journey in the kpop industry 😊 it makes me feel so lucky and happy about what I've heard. More videos to upload and I don't want to miss any of it. Keep safe, Joycie! 💖💖
That sounded like a lovely and fun experience, I think the only thing you’d need to study to work in this job would be korean but luckily you already knew the language, my fave exo member is Lay but sadly he hasn’t been included in the last few comebacks. These types of videos are very interesting. Happy new year and thanks for sharing your stories with us 🤗🎉
I loved listening to your story! :) I didn't notice the time went by, I had fun listening to your voice and you're so pretty! Will wait for your next videos, Joycie!
This was interesting. I would actually love to know more of the professional work side of the job. Like what does the job included, did you only work as a translator? (Also, if you did work as a translator) as someone who is very introverted and socially awkward but is also very much interested in translation as a job, i would love to know advice on being a professional translator and how to prepare for that/ to increase experience and learn other things that help with the job.
Once she started the story about SM I was like ‘oh yeah that’s truly an SM thing!’ Haha! They really bring trouble to local staff. Lol! Also, its not really a requirement for staff to talk to the artists unless they talk to you. Especially with SM artists. Haha!
I noticed you've turned off the comments for the vid about rude kpop idols. If you've receuved backlash on that, remember, those who did are just immature fans. Anyway, there actually a lot of clips where idols are being rude to each other which just proves what you shared. What's worse with these idols is they think they're above anyone when there are working professionals who earn better than them. It's just that they get material perks from their popularity but they are never far from an ordinary individual. Hope you're doing well now after that experience you had while working in the K industry. Remember, you can do so much more than that job. It's not worth it. God bless :)
Thank you so much for sharing your stories and also your works experience behind the k-pop industry. You're so lucky! Let me say that 'yoo gurl this is your fate!!'. Later on, I wondering is there any staff behind k-pop who is kind and professional and then until this night I think my question is being answered by watching your videos. Well, I really want to work behind something like the industry of music especially in k-pop. I'd love to meet with someone new also with the different culture with me. So I think work behind the industry of music such as k-pop is one of my dreams, because I want to work and also learn something new like the culture too. By watching your videos I really want to make it happen in the future ahahhaha. So sorry for being talk a lots, but Im so thankful to you and also for your videos!! It means a lot for me!!!:)
Omg you are so cute I love your story and hope you are happy with your future life. I bet kris was the one that talked fluent english cause he was the only one to talk fluent english in Exo but sadly he left Exo.
The moment you said that you were instructed to be careful and ready since EXO-M is a SM Group made me laugh so much.

The Exo-M content I never expected I would get after 6 years 😭😭😭 Thank you so much.
True 😞😞
"they're from SM and i had to be careful"
HAHAHAHAHHA that cracked me up so bad.
I was looking for this comment 🤣😂
Plus the way Z company staff warned her 😆

All started because of your awesome brother! Wow he must be so amazing!
Just a wild guess, do your initials happen to be AS? :) Hahahahahaha

have you ever worked with BTS or had any experiences working with them? love you thank you for the great videos.
I noticed you've turned off the comments for the vid about rude kpop idols. If you've receuved backlash on that, remember, those who did are just immature fans.

What's worse with these idols is they think they're above anyone when there are working professionals who earn better than them.
