I mean it gives her something to talk about. She doesn’t have to wonder what people want to know about...we just tell her what we r interested in. I’m sure it helps youtubers out as well.
Rahel That really depends on the group. Tina said in the group she was in, they were constantly fighting. But some groups are very touchy and caring with other like Twice. She could mention groups that aren’t friends but she might get attacked in the comments so I don’t know if she would do that.
@@yvesfromloona1647 where did she said about this? I've always heard about how good personalities Twice have, staffs talked about how kind they're, people who worked with them said good things about them and said how great personalities they have, even Sakura talked about how hard working and friendly they're and a lot idols votes for them as idols that they wanted to be friends with
@NCT stands for Neo Crackhead Technology Tina said she didn't like MCountdown because all the rookie groups shared one room together. Including the staff.
I actually don’t mind if groups mime or sing along to pre-recorded tracks! I feel like the performance is just as much about the dancing as well and it must be so difficult to do both well!
i agree lol. like its nearly impossiblke to control your voice while your chest and neck is bouncing around doing hard choreography. i would rather enjoy the performance and not have it ruined by bumpy sounding vocals, anyway if they wanna sing it live though, i think thats great too i mean its hard so props to them.
Yes to camera work! It's something I've thought about a lot. I've always wondered if idols knew beforehand when which cameras would be on, which you just confirmed! Because they are already looking at it before it changes.
nikaidou yes, i've Worked with two cameras for a program and yes you have to change when the red Light appears. That’s how you know witch camera is focus on you.
What's your best and worse fan interactions? How do idols in general feel about fans meeting them in the street, hotel, airport and asking for a picture or starting conversations? Where is the line drawn at fan vs obsessive?
What you first talked about (lip syncing) and the percentages and I used to wonder for example during performances of idol groups with singers and rappers how the rappers sounded completely live beacuse you can hear the hard breathing and stuff yet the vocals sounded so clear sometimes even after dancing and jumping around. Now it all makes so much sense! Honestly it’s pretty smart!
@@soobeanie Do stylist have favouritism among Idols within the same group? Like do they intentionally give certain members more preference for better clothes?
I had a horrible experience when I went to Music Bank. I've done them all except Arirang and Show Champion, but Music Bank, my ass had to get there as a fan at 6AM. (That was the earliest I could get there because of the subway system from my place). Take our photo in front of the sign for the fan club to text to them. We waited ALL DAY to be brought into the pre-recording. It kept getting delayed. It got all the way down to the wire and they ran out of the time, so only the top tier fans got to go into the recording and the rest had to stay. And then I found out that Music Bank doesn't allow entry unless you have a ticket beforehand (compared to Inki and MuCore who give the rest of their tickets to fans outside). I was pissed. 1. No sleep. Waiting all day. 2. Did not to go into the show. So I called my Korean friend and asked him to give me the sappiest text message about how I flew all the way to Korea (not true) to go to Music Bank (lol) blah blah blah. I miraculously found the producer (shockingly) who was letting ticket holders in (because he had to get specific family in). I showed up him my phone with my sappy message and he felt it and he said, "It's actually a light day today, so we can squeeze you in." And guess what, I got in! It was a rough day though honestly lol, but it actually paid off. I never wanted to do it again though. My experiences at Inkigayo and Music Core were so much better. M! Countdown was alright (shrugs)
Oh so you dont generally need a ticket to the shows? At what time should you in that case go there to wait outside? Im interested in going next time i go to Korea
@@eatmycookies1493 It's best to do the lottery for MuCore and Inkigayo and hope for the best. That's done online. Things have changed since I've done it but back then, it was best to go for a smaller artist. Buy their album and stand in the respective artists' line. The show gives tickets to like the Top 20% or whatever of that artist's line to get into the show.
this is a weird question that i've been having since forever lmao.. do idols start hating their songs after practicing them so much? i'd grow tired of hearing the same thing over and over, and having to practice it many times each time they go to a music program
probably with most idols i mean most of them have little to no input on their songs so i would guess so probs not as much as groups that have input on their songs but even then they probs get annoyed after awhile
As a musician and TH-camr who creates extremely candid/unedited videos, I can totally understand why musicians (and especially Kpop idols) use pre-recorded vocals since they're constantly dancing and panting. However, as someone who comes from a pop punk background, live music isn't always supposed to be perfect. Personally, I'd much rather seeing performers in their raw skin even though it's not "perfect" since it showcases their talent in that magical live moment. But yah thanks for giving us insights into this! I instinctively could hear the differences in the level of pre recorded vocals between members but I wasn't aware there was actual percentages.
Exactly. I go to local pubs/showboxes/etc., and there's a big difference. The sad thing is that people that just watch music through a screen don't always know when to recognize if something is completely live. There are a few Korean music shows that do completely live vocals (SMA, KMA, etc.). Sad thing is, when people watch those performances, they say the idols "sound tired." No, wrong. They sound live. That's what actual live vocals sound like. And the fact that they sound so good with hard choreo is even more amazing. I find it funny that they diss the performances that are actually the most amazing.
100% agree with you! I'll definitely have to check out those musicians you mentioned, but I feel the exact same as you. The "tired" comment always gets to me... Singing (not to mention in front of an audience) is so physically draining and there are so many factors which affect a musicians performance on the day
@@PhoenixDilemmaProductions I think the one that comes to mind for my for BTS is their performance at the JBTV Radio Station in Chicago. This stage is a legendary stage. ALL the big names from Prince to Radiohead to Pink Floyd, etc. have played this stage. You can see that it's designed for rock bands (with the raised platform in the back). This radio station requires 100% live vocals. BTS not only had to sing 100% live, but they also had to adjust their choreo to fit a stage designed for rock bands. (They actually show them meeting in the hotel room during their tour and trying to fix the choreo in the hotel room to be in such a small space. You can also see them worrying about not being able to provide a good performance because the stage is so small.) Fire at JBTV: th-cam.com/video/QoEimQg8bno/w-d-xo.html Save Me at JBTV: th-cam.com/video/G44ocpzxYNE/w-d-xo.html I think the reason I like this performance so much is that you can see that they have worked their way to the top because they take on challenges instead of avoiding them and adapt. Coming from a small, bankrupt company, they often didn't have the best conditions and would have to take what they could get. For this reason, they made sure they were strong performers no matter the situation. I think this stage shows that (as well as a lot of the other US stages that use minimal camera work and nearly no support vocals).
Heema Heema apparently many celebrities exchange phone numbers through inkigayo sandwiches! They slip their phone numbers into the sandwich and give it to a celebrity they have good feelings for 😂 (this is according to seungri btw)
I want a video about hair! how much do idols get a say in their hairstyles, why dont stylists stop even tho the idols hair is getting so damaged, why dont they use less damaging stuff, and what ESPECIALLY interests me, as idols have to change up their style so often, sometimes someone will get bangs, but what if for the next comeback it is decided that they dont want that idol with bangs anymore? you cant magically grow them out. bangs are a long term decision xD
@Mitchell Bruce Sioni depends. If the artist or the trainee is underage, she/hes not allowed to practice or attend any music shows award, until 10pm. Its part of the law,. (In korea) They should be at home/dorm or wherever they stay at, at 10pm. To prevent Underage teens/kids from being Overworked.
@@rei__tv But imagine sitting there and having to force yourself to enjoy certain songs so you don't start fan wars and scandal's. It would be so boring lol
@@nyxie664 www.allkpop.com/article/2011/01/why-arent-yg-artists-performing-on-music-bank this article basically explains the gist of why YG artists don't go on music Bank anymore and they haven't been since that incident hope it helps
Oh my god this is all so interesting! I would love a video about camera work, since sometimes you get the "this cameraman is drunk" feeling. Does the company have a say about it according to the concept (or what they imagined) or is totally up to the music show after the choreography rehearsals? If it is all already decided before, do the idols get like a "plan" to the camera positions or it's learned there? Also i know you already mentioned in a couple videos, but what is like to be in the waiting rooms? What are you allowed to do while waiting (if there are any restrictions)? Thank you for theses videos, they are great 💜 You're so articulated when explaining things especially considering that this video has barely any cuts during the explanations
@@soobeanie uhh if you already had a plan on what to talk about you can just stick to it and I'm sure it will be great. I'm sorry if I sounded too demanding lol Love your videos, thank you for doing this. Remember to always acknowledge your efforts and be healthy K bye
K-pop camera people are wild. I like oldies stuff, as you can see from my avatar, with their single POV 4:3 aspect ratio black and white stuff. Then my sibling got me into K-pop videos... with all those flashing and spinning cameras. I love K-pop songs, but. The headache from watching MVs is real xD
Really interesting info about the pre-recordings! I didn't know they fine-tuned it to that extent, for each individual member on a day by day basis. My opinion on it is that it's perfectly fine to do lip-syncing and pre-recordings if it's important for the singers. Screw "live singing" pride. For example, if singing that day will damage their throat or they're sick, I don't think it's good to power through it because it's really horrible for throat health, it's just not worth it long-term. I think a lot of people have a fundamental misunderstanding about how singing works, too--it's almost all about breathing! There's not some innate magical "singing gene" that makes people good at singing no matter the circumstances. So if you're doing an aerobic choreography that affects your breath (basically all K-pop choreo), it's unrealistic to expect human beings with normal human limits to perform challenging vocal runs, high notes, heck even regular notes, with the same smoothness they normally could. There are some people who can do it anyway, but they're rather outliers. Of course, if a group did 100% lip-syncing every single time, that would be weird. But I don't know any groups that do that. I knew music shows took a long time, but I can't believe Music Bank makes the performers wait all morning, all day, and all night just to do a performance--if Inkigayo can get people in and out within 5 hours, they should be able to get *somewhat* close to that, even if there's an difference in manpower or resources... that's gotta be costing every person in that building big bucks, to pay people to sit around on standby. Hard to take a nap when you're on call. :/ No wonder they often tape shows while idols are at music shows though, lol. I'm really curious about the cameras, and I would love to see another video talking about it.
Spill the tea on how y'all be getting each other's numbers lmao. Can you actually tell who's flirting with who just by how they interact backstage? Plus I've always been curious about the camera work thing, so if possible I'd like to see you talking about it.
I went to music show once and that was surprising! It was just crazy on how they switching from live performance to pre-recorded. I was on afternoon section where they actually live on tv real time. some groups were just performed only half of the song and then the next group came on stage and get ready for their own stages.
@@louisaislife2285 these people are idols...ppl idolise them... If a young gay or bi person is struggling to deal with their sexuality it can be really inspiring and reassuring to see how their idols deal with theirs
YES I have questions, latching onto the exchanging numbers thing - Is it common for idols/artists to exchange numbers with each other? Can the company control who you go out to meet with (especially if it's another artist)? Are friendships encouraged or discouraged between companies? If you have friends outside the company, is it hard to get close, because there are certain things you can and can't say? Do the schedules make these kinds of friendships difficult to maintain, and how is that generally dealt with? If you're in an idol group, and you have just ordinary school friends, are you allowed to bring them to the dorm or do the managers need to be updated? Obviously, in big companies, there are lots of public close bonds between groups - are there many instances where certain groups or people do have close bonds, but they have to keep it quiet/no one pays attention to it? K whew sorry that was a bit of a word vomit. But your videos are super informative, especially when wanting to research what idol life is like personally - sources like your videos are so hard to come by that haven't been censored or measured etc. Thank you so much!
thank you for all your videos! i would like to request a video about idols’ relationship to fans. like what do idols think about just facing a screaming mass wherever they go, is it exciting or just annoying? what do idols appreciate most about their fans (actions, things they say etc)? in what situations are idols most comfortable with their fans, is it when fans are cheering for a performance, while being close & talking during a fansign, while doing a live stream or while reading comments written on your videos? are there certain things that idols like & dislike about their fans (once again, actions, things they say etc)? i also sometimes feel like idols constantly saying how much they love the fans might be a bit exaggerated, especially when it comes from an artist whose fans usually are quite annoying even to the artist themself. can idols really love their fans that much when they constantly get mobbed, their privacy is violated, fans are being possessive etc...? what do idols ACTUALLY think about their fans? i think this would be a very interesting topic to hear more about, thanks in advance!💗
I really think this depends on each individual. Some people love attention, some prefer more privacy or being watched from afar. I think they love and appreciate their fans but are really good at fan service. Lol
Trisha Williams yes i think that it depends a lot on the person too! i was just thinking if there’s some general idea among idols that fans don’t really know about. i thought it’d be an interesting topic to know more about :’)
When you explained how certain members got a different percent of pre recorded vocals and certain parts become louder- it literally explains all my conspiracy. When I watch the shows, I always thought you could hear the main vocal better and for some reason the sub vocals sounded very “studio”
This video was so good. I definitely want to know more about how idols interact off camera. Idk if youve ever mentioned this, but I saw you on an episode of Let's Go Dream Team (I love that show and dead at the part when you pulled one of those foam peanuts or whatever it was out from your shirt XD). It would be cool to know how filming that show went. Awesome job coming up with new things to talk about!
The percentages you talked about during music shows makes a lot of sense. When I watch live performances on TH-cam I could never really tell if the idols were lip syncing or not (even if people said they’re weren’t in the comments, I just couldn’t confidently believe in it) but when I went to my first concert it was obvious that they were actually singing. BUT when I watch the recording I took that day, even though I know that they were singing, I feel like I still can’t be certain. So I guess that’s because of the percentages...
I just discovered your channel and I'm totally in love with your content. I'm subscribing now. I've watched other kpop insider videos mostly those audition ones but the way you explain everything in detail like here is so different. You spill alot of tea haha 🍵 I wished I've known about you sooner. It's sad that I've been into kpop for so long but I didn't heard of your previous group before
This is a very helpful video! I made notes out of it 🙏 And I wanna know about how music shows allocate waiting rooms? I did hear that it depends on the popularity and how new the groups are. And how music shows backstage footage is filmed (quizzes or games that shows comduct)? and also how Idol culture works that everyone follows example hoobae (후배) greeting sunbae (선배), distributing albums etc.?
Whoa! This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing the “secrets”. I’ve got a question about the percentage of pre recorded vocals. Is 0% even an option? Is the decision taken mostly by the company, artist, music show or maybe a combo?
This is SO interesting!!! Thank you so much for shedding light on music shows and pre-recorded vocals, I've always been so curious about this and the 30, 50, 70 thing is eye-opening! I love your Idol Insider series and hope you keep spilling trade secrets :P, especially on the "business" end of things. For example, could you share more about the process of a comeback from start to finish? Like how is the concept formed? Do the idols have any say in the concept or is that all up to the company? How are parts of the song distributed, how is the title track chosen, how long do you practice the choreography and singing for, what's the recording process like for the song, what's it like to film the MV, promotions leading up to the comeback, what do idols do after promotions end, etc. I definitely want to hear about ISAC and camera work as well...oh, could you also share more about music award shows (e.g. MAMA), and what those are like behind the scenes? Do groups know beforehand that they've won something? Are there shockers/upsets? Does news travel down the grapevine like, "yeah, that group didn't deserve that award" or something like that? Another video idea, could you share more about what variety shows are like as well? We get glimpses of the odd hours idols are filming or how long they're filming for, but it'd be amazing if you could shed some light there like how you did with how long it takes to film for music shows. And how "real" are idols and the hosts on variety shows? THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SHARING
Hey maybe you can do a video about in-ear.. like how it works.. how it helps the artist.. and why is it so important to artist.. basically just everything u need to know bout in-ears on music show
OMG, the fact that they all get different levels (like 30% 50% 70%) explains so much! I always wondered about that because while some people sing louder than others, that can be evened out a lot by mics, so when it isn't evened out at all that made me really curious as to why. Thank you for giving this explanation!
Todos tus vídeos sin duda son excelentes, aunque te he fallado como fanático al dejar a medias otros que has subido pero prometo que me pondré al día para no perderme de ningún detalle, ya que este es mi canal favorito, claro después de los canales de anime, no te ofendas solo soy así 😁😁😁
🙏Thanks for making such a great and helpful vid! Can you make a video about those inkigayo sandwiches... I've got a hunch on baekhyun sending chanyeol something.... 😉😂❤️
my problem with music bank is the time spent waiting for the broadcast station to get its shit together is time that could be scheduled for a variety show appearance or photoshoot or something to improve the artist's/company's income (radio and fansign events aren't that lucrative). i don't think i've ever heard anyone from KBS explain why music bank takes so damned long. it's inefficient to take all day for something other broadcast stations can do in a few hours. that's KBS just taking itself way too seriously, and it's not like the result is anything special. mubank's finished product isn't noticeably better than any other music show.
I just wanted to say that I LOVE your videos! I've worked in the Western entertainment industry (not as an artist but in press&media) and I'm very interested in the backstage aspects of the k-pop world and how it differs from what I'm used to. You focus on talking about the facts and explaining the way things work instead of just falling deep into the gossip-y part. Great work, very informative!
I’d like to know how it goes with White-Washing by idols (or like in general in asia)? - - - because i see alot of pre-debute vs debute photos and there skins are most of he time a totaly different colour and i hope u can also answer why it is so populair/ important to be a lighter skin color in asia? PS: I love your vids!!
Basically it means you're rich because you're not a farmer who has to work everyday under the sun. And it's rare to be super white skinned, and rareness makes beauty standards
The thing I love about 2NE1 and Big Bang is that I could almost always hear their live vocals. I hate artists/groups that I can't hear their voices over the playback, and I don't mean performances in which the sound systems are wonky, but that every performance was like that. I don't mind playback and I get that they're dancing, but I prefer clear distinction of voice from playback. Otherwise I tend to spend the whole time trying to determine if/when they're actually singing, plus it's not as special or interesting to me.
I think this was a great video :) I always wondered this, because I love watching Super Junior live on music shows when they have videos for it on TH-cam, and I always realized how it works, because most of the time they'd be singing the song, and also some of the time the performance is pre-recorded. When I do hear vocals, the main vocalists, like Yesung, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun will usually stand out a lot more than the others, with a little bit of the pre-recorded part. The others you can still hear, but it's not as noticeable. Like for Sorry, Sorry they'd singing live completely, but then something like Black Suit is mostly pre-recorded since the choreo is hella insane. THANK YOU FOR THIS INSIDER INFO :D
Please I have a question, is there any drama between groups or members in the backstage of these programs? Spill the tea girl PS I love your videos, so much info I always wondered about but never even question before
I don’t know about other groups but Super Junior literally talked too much times in national television about their fights in the backstage of music programs, the most famous probably would be when they fight during mr simple era in the inkigayo backstage (you can find the story if you search choding junior in youtube) and the incheon battle between Leeteuk and Heechul 😂
can you talk about writing songs? like who writes them and how much the idols contribute, the structures of songs, line distribution, etc. this always seemed interesting to me.
@soobinie yesss pls let us know how much idols have a say in song writing and freedom in creation and royalties etc!! I know groups like bts, btob, day6 etc have freedom to song write whereas some groups just sing whatever they're given?? Why is that so?
I noticed in a EXID - I love you stage that they filmed the performance at least twice because right after a close up of Hani's face her hair was in different position when they showed the whole group
Thanks for today's tea! lol. I always knew music shows were tiring :( That's why I thought having so many music shows was unnecessary. I hope everyone had enough time to rest in between shows TT
It's good to know that you found Inkigayo as the best. My bias, GOT7's Jinyoung, was an MC for Inkigayo and it's nice to know that he, along with other idols, were in good hands.
Thank you I was so curious about how music shows work and especially lip-syncing! I wanted to ask you: can you talk about the whole process of a comeback? Like how the concept is chosen, how are lines distributed among members, everything about MV, promotion, choreography, and things like that!
Bruh performing on music shows is really hard actually...With how people expect idols to sing live and perfectly, if you're an idol, you have to sing, dance in those outfits, with jewelries hanging on you, with lots of makeup on your face and your hair done, manage to not look crappy and weird cause cameras are filming you AND also be careful about which camera you have to look at, not to mention that the projectors in those studios(?) make the stage super hot...all of these after hours of waiting in those rooms, while having woke up in early morning, probably not eaten enough food...That's CRAZY cause I feel so frustrated when I do the least amount of make up and have my hair loosen for parties and stuff after an hour, I feel like wanting to take EVERYTHING of of me asap, idols have to do that for 2 to 4 weeks, and atleast 3 days each week... I kind of understand why idols don't do live singing and people who expect them to do it well are being so selfish, they have to be on their shoes to know how hard it is and they write all of those hateful comments lying on their bed lol
I've noticed the 30%/50%/70% after watching hundreds/thousands of idol performances. Some members clearly have more backing vocal track over other members (usually the main vocals). Never knew it usually has fixed percentages though. Really interesting~
oh wow first: thank you for this video :) love your idol insider series! and also I wanted to tell you that I actually have the same opinion on best and worst music shows. just by watching the performances of groups I like I remember that inkigayo always had the best stages and I was always excited for those and... hated music bank performances most of the time XD I don't know just by watching the performances the quality of the mics and the camerawork was really not the best... and now that I know the show takes so much time and energy from the artists as well... damn :/ but yes thank you so much for this info on music shows :)
Hi Christine, I love your videos! It's interesting to learn about the behind the scenes stuff and how much work goes into being an idol. I'm glad you are in a happier place. In your future videos, can you show us your skincare routine/makeup/GRWM? or how about a video with your other idol friends? Can you talk about idol's salary/allowances and how long and how much it takes to "break even"? I always wondered if idols got paid for media interviews, TV appearances, or reality shows, etc.
Thank you for this video! I would really love one about the camera work! Now, I have a question regarding the programs (that could be relevant to other videos about that topic): how can a group get a "slot" on them? Do the companies have to pay something to have their groups in a music show or the TV stations are the ones that pay or select for free the participants? I ask because, for some big groups (with more money), we see 1 to 2 months promotions while, for smaller ones (with little to no money), it tends to last just a couple of weeks (up to a month) and they only show up in a few shows. Note that I'm not talking about stage decoration. I'm asking about how is it decided who are the groups that are going to present themselves in a music show.
@@soobeanie, so... that's the old game of influence. That's unfair, but I already expected that, because that's how things seem to work in the entertainment industry everywhere. :( I really thank you for the answer! :D

TH-cam suddenly recommended me this video and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have always had an interest on the process and behind the scenes actions of music shows and how idols perform. I think my favorite information was when you said you could hear everyone singing when you are putting on your mics and know who the main vocals were based on that lmao. Can you touch more on that process? Like are groups who aren't doing any activities during down time just waiting in their room until they get called up? or are they allowed to monitor other groups performances? Like if you were going to be performing ahead of another group you really liked, would you be able to actually watch the performance instead of viewing it from the room? Can you also do a video on the differences of performing in each music show. I imagine that it is a pretty similar structure in how they do things but I'm curious if there are distinct differences. Do you also know how MCs are picked for music shows and how long their contracted to be an MC? I've always been confused of them and why some have goodbye stages. Sorry, I have so many questions. This is one of a few videos I've watched and am new to the channel, I definitely subscribed bc the tea is real and I love knowing about the processes of these things.

Yes to camera work! It's something I've thought about a lot. I've always wondered if idols knew beforehand when which cameras would be on, which you just confirmed! Because they are already looking at it before it changes.
LOLLLLLL YEAH ILL TRY TO MAKE A VIDEO ON IT
Idols say that they always have to find the camera... So i think it's not actually staged
I heard that there’s like a red light that comes on and they look at that camera
yuuki i think something like this was in a Idol School practice episode 🌸
nikaidou yes, i've Worked with two cameras for a program and yes you have to change when the red Light appears. That’s how you know witch camera is focus on you.
What's your best and worse fan interactions? How do idols in general feel about fans meeting them in the street, hotel, airport and asking for a picture or starting conversations? Where is the line drawn at fan vs obsessive?
I want to hear abt that as well !!
And how does group security handle sasaengs.
What you first talked about (lip syncing) and the percentages and I used to wonder for example during performances of idol groups with singers and rappers how the rappers sounded completely live beacuse you can hear the hard breathing and stuff yet the vocals sounded so clear sometimes even after dancing and jumping around. Now it all makes so much sense! Honestly it’s pretty smart!
Im Always confused why the main vocals sometimes sounds weird in live until now that u explained it 😂🍵
YEAAHHHH
Oooh you only realised it now 😂
❤ do idols have a say in what they wear on stage?
Do the companies listen to what their idols say/want?
Oh man if you are a rookie noo... but later you can put in a little input
This is such a vague question. Of course it depends on the company and age of the group.
@@soobeanie Do stylist have favouritism among Idols within the same group? Like do they intentionally give certain members more preference for better clothes?
@@funkystyle7249 obviously that kind of stuff will depend on the group.
And their hairstyles^?
I always wonder if they change their mind so quickly or if the company keeps changing their hair
I had a horrible experience when I went to Music Bank. I've done them all except Arirang and Show Champion, but Music Bank, my ass had to get there as a fan at 6AM. (That was the earliest I could get there because of the subway system from my place). Take our photo in front of the sign for the fan club to text to them. We waited ALL DAY to be brought into the pre-recording. It kept getting delayed. It got all the way down to the wire and they ran out of the time, so only the top tier fans got to go into the recording and the rest had to stay. And then I found out that Music Bank doesn't allow entry unless you have a ticket beforehand (compared to Inki and MuCore who give the rest of their tickets to fans outside). I was pissed. 1. No sleep. Waiting all day. 2. Did not to go into the show. So I called my Korean friend and asked him to give me the sappiest text message about how I flew all the way to Korea (not true) to go to Music Bank (lol) blah blah blah. I miraculously found the producer (shockingly) who was letting ticket holders in (because he had to get specific family in). I showed up him my phone with my sappy message and he felt it and he said, "It's actually a light day today, so we can squeeze you in." And guess what, I got in! It was a rough day though honestly lol, but it actually paid off. I never wanted to do it again though. My experiences at Inkigayo and Music Core were so much better. M! Countdown was alright (shrugs)
Oh so you dont generally need a ticket to the shows? At what time should you in that case go there to wait outside? Im interested in going next time i go to Korea
@@eatmycookies1493 It's best to do the lottery for MuCore and Inkigayo and hope for the best. That's done online. Things have changed since I've done it but back then, it was best to go for a smaller artist. Buy their album and stand in the respective artists' line. The show gives tickets to like the Top 20% or whatever of that artist's line to get into the show.
Thank you for sharing. Interesting info!
@@DareDB Lol, win-win all around - the less popular artists get a much needed boost in sales and you get a ticket to attend.
I don't understand why fans have to be there at 6AM when they don't actually air the show until like 6PM
The high ponytail suits you! 🌹✨
Shanksss~~

Talk about Idol star athletics please!
i remember watching Seventeen going to music bank and i kid you not, they look hella tired. idols are very strong. poor them. fighting!
😭😭😭they really work so hard,,,so many idol groups and idols do
@Estela Lopez yep
this is a weird question that i've been having since forever lmao.. do idols start hating their songs after practicing them so much? i'd grow tired of hearing the same thing over and over, and having to practice it many times each time they go to a music program
probably with most idols i mean most of them have little to no input on their songs so i would guess so probs not as much as groups that have input on their songs but even then they probs get annoyed after awhile
That is exactly what happened to GG with their song Gee lol
Of course this happens
Unoriginal yes. It’s different for everyone tho. Taeyeon says she hates all of snsd’s popular songs
I think Momoland got sick of their own song called bboom bboom 😂😂
As a musician and TH-camr who creates extremely candid/unedited videos, I can totally understand why musicians (and especially Kpop idols) use pre-recorded vocals since they're constantly dancing and panting. However, as someone who comes from a pop punk background, live music isn't always supposed to be perfect. Personally, I'd much rather seeing performers in their raw skin even though it's not "perfect" since it showcases their talent in that magical live moment. But yah thanks for giving us insights into this! I instinctively could hear the differences in the level of pre recorded vocals between members but I wasn't aware there was actual percentages.
Yeahhhhh Glad you liked the videoooooo
Keep at it hooman ~
Exactly. I go to local pubs/showboxes/etc., and there's a big difference. The sad thing is that people that just watch music through a screen don't always know when to recognize if something is completely live. There are a few Korean music shows that do completely live vocals (SMA, KMA, etc.). Sad thing is, when people watch those performances, they say the idols "sound tired." No, wrong. They sound live. That's what actual live vocals sound like. And the fact that they sound so good with hard choreo is even more amazing.
I find it funny that they diss the performances that are actually the most amazing.
100% agree with you! I'll definitely have to check out those musicians you mentioned, but I feel the exact same as you. The "tired" comment always gets to me... Singing (not to mention in front of an audience) is so physically draining and there are so many factors which affect a musicians performance on the day
@@PhoenixDilemmaProductions I think the one that comes to mind for my for BTS is their performance at the JBTV Radio Station in Chicago. This stage is a legendary stage. ALL the big names from Prince to Radiohead to Pink Floyd, etc. have played this stage. You can see that it's designed for rock bands (with the raised platform in the back). This radio station requires 100% live vocals. BTS not only had to sing 100% live, but they also had to adjust their choreo to fit a stage designed for rock bands.
(They actually show them meeting in the hotel room during their tour and trying to fix the choreo in the hotel room to be in such a small space. You can also see them worrying about not being able to provide a good performance because the stage is so small.)
Fire at JBTV: th-cam.com/video/QoEimQg8bno/w-d-xo.html
Save Me at JBTV: th-cam.com/video/G44ocpzxYNE/w-d-xo.html
I think the reason I like this performance so much is that you can see that they have worked their way to the top because they take on challenges instead of avoiding them and adapt. Coming from a small, bankrupt company, they often didn't have the best conditions and would have to take what they could get. For this reason, they made sure they were strong performers no matter the situation. I think this stage shows that (as well as a lot of the other US stages that use minimal camera work and nearly no support vocals).
I pressed as soon as i saw inkigayo sandwich😂😂
LOLLL Inkigao sandwiches
The famous sandwich 😂😂😂
What is inkigayo sandwiche??
Heema Heema apparently many celebrities exchange phone numbers through inkigayo sandwiches! They slip their phone numbers into the sandwich and give it to a celebrity they have good feelings for 😂 (this is according to seungri btw)
Caro Cheng
Omg thanks😘🤗😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
In the corner *sips tea*
LOLL 😂😂😂😂🤪
I'm actually about to go make tea! xD
I want a video about hair! how much do idols get a say in their hairstyles, why dont stylists stop even tho the idols hair is getting so damaged, why dont they use less damaging stuff, and what ESPECIALLY interests me, as idols have to change up their style so often, sometimes someone will get bangs, but what if for the next comeback it is decided that they dont want that idol with bangs anymore? you cant magically grow them out. bangs are a long term decision xD
i think hair extensions are used sometimes
"I feel like Inkigayo because it's the shortest you know!? like it's just for 5hrs"
Whatttttt 5 hours??????
5 hours is fast. A normal work shift for a normal job is 8 hours.
@Mitchell Bruce Sioni depends. If the artist or the trainee is underage, she/hes not allowed to practice or attend any music shows award, until 10pm.
Its part of the law,. (In korea)
They should be at home/dorm or wherever they stay at, at 10pm.
To prevent Underage teens/kids from being Overworked.
@Mitchell Bruce Sioni like any other work when you have to get ready and travel to the place you work...
@@rei__tv But imagine sitting there and having to force yourself to enjoy certain songs so you don't start fan wars and scandal's. It would be so boring lol

@@sallyliao3868 Thank you!
Yes! I want to know how idols slide into other idols lanes backstage!
Mmmkayy
Oh my god this is all so interesting!
I would love a video about camera work, since sometimes you get the "this cameraman is drunk" feeling.
Does the company have a say about it according to the concept (or what they imagined) or is totally up to the music show after the choreography rehearsals?
If it is all already decided before, do the idols get like a "plan" to the camera positions or it's learned there?
Also i know you already mentioned in a couple videos, but what is like to be in the waiting rooms? What are you allowed to do while waiting (if there are any restrictions)?
Thank you for theses videos, they are great 💜 You're so articulated when explaining things especially considering that this video has barely any cuts during the explanations
LOLL OMG I SCREENSHOT THIS ILL TRY TO TOUCH UP ON ITT
@@soobeanie uhh if you already had a plan on what to talk about you can just stick to it and I'm sure it will be great.
I'm sorry if I sounded too demanding lol
Love your videos, thank you for doing this. Remember to always acknowledge your efforts and be healthy
K bye
Lol like basically every red velvet cameraman
K-pop camera people are wild. I like oldies stuff, as you can see from my avatar, with their single POV 4:3 aspect ratio black and white stuff. Then my sibling got me into K-pop videos... with all those flashing and spinning cameras. I love K-pop songs, but. The headache from watching MVs is real xD
Really interesting info about the pre-recordings! I didn't know they fine-tuned it to that extent, for each individual member on a day by day basis. My opinion on it is that it's perfectly fine to do lip-syncing and pre-recordings if it's important for the singers. Screw "live singing" pride. For example, if singing that day will damage their throat or they're sick, I don't think it's good to power through it because it's really horrible for throat health, it's just not worth it long-term. I think a lot of people have a fundamental misunderstanding about how singing works, too--it's almost all about breathing! There's not some innate magical "singing gene" that makes people good at singing no matter the circumstances. So if you're doing an aerobic choreography that affects your breath (basically all K-pop choreo), it's unrealistic to expect human beings with normal human limits to perform challenging vocal runs, high notes, heck even regular notes, with the same smoothness they normally could. There are some people who can do it anyway, but they're rather outliers.
Of course, if a group did 100% lip-syncing every single time, that would be weird. But I don't know any groups that do that.
I knew music shows took a long time, but I can't believe Music Bank makes the performers wait all morning, all day, and all night just to do a performance--if Inkigayo can get people in and out within 5 hours, they should be able to get *somewhat* close to that, even if there's an difference in manpower or resources... that's gotta be costing every person in that building big bucks, to pay people to sit around on standby. Hard to take a nap when you're on call. :/ No wonder they often tape shows while idols are at music shows though, lol.
I'm really curious about the cameras, and I would love to see another video talking about it.
Thank you for this comment!! And taking your time to write itttand yessssss I shall try to make a video on that
i love this series bc it really shows the idols are human, and how crucial is the backstage work the staff and the companies do!! love u 💗
Do trainee buy their own cloth in that known brands or their are some known brands that sponsored them?
Spill the tea on how y'all be getting each other's numbers lmao. Can you actually tell who's flirting with who just by how they interact backstage?
Plus I've always been curious about the camera work thing, so if possible I'd like to see you talking about it.
Thank you for all the informations I am always curious about things and you always answer them you’re the best love from Morocco
Love you~ sendinc back love from Korea
Don’t stop sharing information.
You are seriously addressing many questions that I have. Thank You!
omg spill the tea on how idols exchange numbers on music shows and how they interact backstage in general
I went to music show once and that was surprising! It was just crazy on how they switching from live performance to pre-recorded. I was on afternoon section where they actually live on tv real time. some groups were just performed only half of the song and then the next group came on stage and get ready for their own stages.
YESSSSSS
can u talk abt how idol's deal with their sexuality and how the companys feels abt it ?
How is this important?
Louisa islife I really don’t how that is important?
Louisa islife sexuality is a big topic in life why wouldn't it be important
@@louisaislife2285 these people are idols...ppl idolise them... If a young gay or bi person is struggling to deal with their sexuality it can be really inspiring and reassuring to see how their idols deal with theirs
@@loooloolemon not reallly but for you ok i respect your opinion
YES I have questions, latching onto the exchanging numbers thing -
Is it common for idols/artists to exchange numbers with each other?
Can the company control who you go out to meet with (especially if it's another artist)?
Are friendships encouraged or discouraged between companies?
If you have friends outside the company, is it hard to get close, because there are certain things you can and can't say?
Do the schedules make these kinds of friendships difficult to maintain, and how is that generally dealt with?
If you're in an idol group, and you have just ordinary school friends, are you allowed to bring them to the dorm or do the managers need to be updated?
Obviously, in big companies, there are lots of public close bonds between groups - are there many instances where certain groups or people do have close bonds, but they have to keep it quiet/no one pays attention to it?
K whew sorry that was a bit of a word vomit. But your videos are super informative, especially when wanting to research what idol life is like personally - sources like your videos are so hard to come by that haven't been censored or measured etc. Thank you so much!
it's obvious that she likes Dalla Dalla as of now😆 (am I the only one who noticed it?)
I noticed too!!
thank you for all your videos! i would like to request a video about idols’ relationship to fans. like what do idols think about just facing a screaming mass wherever they go, is it exciting or just annoying? what do idols appreciate most about their fans (actions, things they say etc)? in what situations are idols most comfortable with their fans, is it when fans are cheering for a performance, while being close & talking during a fansign, while doing a live stream or while reading comments written on your videos? are there certain things that idols like & dislike about their fans (once again, actions, things they say etc)? i also sometimes feel like idols constantly saying how much they love the fans might be a bit exaggerated, especially when it comes from an artist whose fans usually are quite annoying even to the artist themself. can idols really love their fans that much when they constantly get mobbed, their privacy is violated, fans are being possessive etc...? what do idols ACTUALLY think about their fans?
i think this would be a very interesting topic to hear more about, thanks in advance!💗
I really think this depends on each individual. Some people love attention, some prefer more privacy or being watched from afar. I think they love and appreciate their fans but are really good at fan service. Lol
Trisha Williams yes i think that it depends a lot on the person too! i was just thinking if there’s some general idea among idols that fans don’t really know about. i thought it’d be an interesting topic to know more about :’)
When you explained how certain members got a different percent of pre recorded vocals and certain parts become louder- it literally explains all my conspiracy. When I watch the shows, I always thought you could hear the main vocal better and for some reason the sub vocals sounded very “studio”
Oh yeaa soobeaniiii tell us about other ways how idols try to exchange numbers in your next one 💖
YESSS OKIE
This video was so good. I definitely want to know more about how idols interact off camera.
Idk if youve ever mentioned this, but I saw you on an episode of Let's Go Dream Team (I love that show and dead at the part when you pulled one of those foam peanuts or whatever it was out from your shirt XD). It would be cool to know how filming that show went. Awesome job coming up with new things to talk about!
YESSSSSS
who else was hoping she would mention which groups were good/bad at lives?
given the defamation laws in korea, i think she didn't say anything to protect herself
@@botanicallyaberry6406 she hearted your comment so i take it yes lol
It wouldnt be defamation if she said which ones she thought were good, right?
actually guys i was thinking more along the lines of using their first initials like she did with the nice/rude groups video.
I mean...if you just listen to the MR removed videos you can tell
She's really coming through with these Idol Insider videos 👍
You promised me that you'll do video on Z-boys and Z-girls,
Don't break your promise!!
BTW nice video!!
The percentages you talked about during music shows makes a lot of sense. When I watch live performances on TH-cam I could never really tell if the idols were lip syncing or not (even if people said they’re weren’t in the comments, I just couldn’t confidently believe in it) but when I went to my first concert it was obvious that they were actually singing. BUT when I watch the recording I took that day, even though I know that they were singing, I feel like I still can’t be certain. So I guess that’s because of the percentages...
Like the live singing and pre-recorded vocals were so blended in you will be confused. It could also be one of the reasons why its in percentages. 😅
I need that sandwiches video real quick
I just discovered your channel and I'm totally in love with your content. I'm subscribing now. I've watched other kpop insider videos mostly those audition ones but the way you explain everything in detail like here is so different. You spill alot of tea haha 🍵 I wished I've known about you sooner. It's sad that I've been into kpop for so long but I didn't heard of your previous group before
love the effort you put into your videos! thank you for sharing the inside scoop :)
This is a very helpful video! I made notes out of it 🙏 And I wanna know about how music shows allocate waiting rooms? I did hear that it depends on the popularity and how new the groups are. And how music shows backstage footage is filmed (quizzes or games that shows comduct)? and also how Idol culture works that everyone follows example hoobae (후배) greeting sunbae (선배), distributing albums etc.?
Whoa! This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing the “secrets”. I’ve got a question about the percentage of pre recorded vocals. Is 0% even an option? Is the decision taken mostly by the company, artist, music show or maybe a combo?
Mmmmmmmmm it is rare but there are prob people who do but somtimes it can break the flow of the song if its 0%
soobeanie_ Ah, makes sense considering the amount of dancing most groups do as well. Thanks again for the inside info 😉
I think Kim JAEHWAN do 0% he is Soloist and not have time to prerecording
@@soobeaniethis maybe late question. Just discover ur yt 😊 just wanna know, hw abt Mamamoo?
This is SO interesting!!! Thank you so much for shedding light on music shows and pre-recorded vocals, I've always been so curious about this and the 30, 50, 70 thing is eye-opening! I love your Idol Insider series and hope you keep spilling trade secrets :P, especially on the "business" end of things. For example, could you share more about the process of a comeback from start to finish? Like how is the concept formed? Do the idols have any say in the concept or is that all up to the company? How are parts of the song distributed, how is the title track chosen, how long do you practice the choreography and singing for, what's the recording process like for the song, what's it like to film the MV, promotions leading up to the comeback, what do idols do after promotions end, etc.
I definitely want to hear about ISAC and camera work as well...oh, could you also share more about music award shows (e.g. MAMA), and what those are like behind the scenes? Do groups know beforehand that they've won something? Are there shockers/upsets? Does news travel down the grapevine like, "yeah, that group didn't deserve that award" or something like that?
Another video idea, could you share more about what variety shows are like as well? We get glimpses of the odd hours idols are filming or how long they're filming for, but it'd be amazing if you could shed some light there like how you did with how long it takes to film for music shows. And how "real" are idols and the hosts on variety shows?
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SHARING
INKIGAYO SANDWICES THE CONTENT I SIGNED UP FOR
I definitely have more respect for those who sing live (for the most part)
Hey maybe you can do a video about in-ear.. like how it works.. how it helps the artist.. and why is it so important to artist.. basically just everything u need to know bout in-ears on music show
OMG, the fact that they all get different levels (like 30% 50% 70%) explains so much! I always wondered about that because while some people sing louder than others, that can be evened out a lot by mics, so when it isn't evened out at all that made me really curious as to why. Thank you for giving this explanation!
“i don’t know if i’m giving secrets away but,, i mean who cares”

🙏Thanks for making such a great and helpful vid! Can you make a video about those inkigayo sandwiches... I've got a hunch on baekhyun sending chanyeol something.... 😉😂❤️
my problem with music bank is the time spent waiting for the broadcast station to get its shit together is time that could be scheduled for a variety show appearance or photoshoot or something to improve the artist's/company's income (radio and fansign events aren't that lucrative). i don't think i've ever heard anyone from KBS explain why music bank takes so damned long. it's inefficient to take all day for something other broadcast stations can do in a few hours. that's KBS just taking itself way too seriously, and it's not like the result is anything special. mubank's finished product isn't noticeably better than any other music show.
That felt good to read
I just wanted to say that I LOVE your videos! I've worked in the Western entertainment industry (not as an artist but in press&media) and I'm very interested in the backstage aspects of the k-pop world and how it differs from what I'm used to. You focus on talking about the facts and explaining the way things work instead of just falling deep into the gossip-y part. Great work, very informative!
I’d like to know how it goes with White-Washing by idols (or like in general in asia)?
- - -
because i see alot of pre-debute vs debute photos and there skins are most of he time a totaly different colour and i hope u can also answer why it is so populair/ important to be a lighter skin color in asia?
PS: I love your vids!!
Basically it means you're rich because you're not a farmer who has to work everyday under the sun. And it's rare to be super white skinned, and rareness makes beauty standards
idols whitewash themselves alone in their selfies. it's an asian thing. don't think much will change if they themselves do it to their own pictures.
The thing I love about 2NE1 and Big Bang is that I could almost always hear their live vocals. I hate artists/groups that I can't hear their voices over the playback, and I don't mean performances in which the sound systems are wonky, but that every performance was like that. I don't mind playback and I get that they're dancing, but I prefer clear distinction of voice from playback. Otherwise I tend to spend the whole time trying to determine if/when they're actually singing, plus it's not as special or interesting to me.
how blessing it would be to be the group after mamamoo's performance hmmm
I think this was a great video :) I always wondered this, because I love watching Super Junior live on music shows when they have videos for it on TH-cam, and I always realized how it works, because most of the time they'd be singing the song, and also some of the time the performance is pre-recorded. When I do hear vocals, the main vocalists, like Yesung, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun will usually stand out a lot more than the others, with a little bit of the pre-recorded part. The others you can still hear, but it's not as noticeable. Like for Sorry, Sorry they'd singing live completely, but then something like Black Suit is mostly pre-recorded since the choreo is hella insane.
THANK YOU FOR THIS INSIDER INFO :D
No problemmmm
Please I have a question, is there any drama between groups or members in the backstage of these programs? Spill the tea girl
PS I love your videos, so much info I always wondered about but never even question before
I don’t know about other groups but Super Junior literally talked too much times in national television about their fights in the backstage of music programs, the most famous probably would be when they fight during mr simple era in the inkigayo backstage (you can find the story if you search choding junior in youtube) and the incheon battle between Leeteuk and Heechul 😂
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing. YASS! Please make a video about camera work, it would be really interesting information to learn!
YESSSSSSSS
can you talk about writing songs? like who writes them and how much the idols contribute, the structures of songs, line distribution, etc. this always seemed interesting to me.
@soobinie yesss pls let us know how much idols have a say in song writing and freedom in creation and royalties etc!! I know groups like bts, btob, day6 etc have freedom to song write whereas some groups just sing whatever they're given?? Why is that so?
I noticed in a EXID - I love you stage that they filmed the performance at least twice because right after a close up of Hani's face her hair was in different position when they showed the whole group
I want the camera work video too :) great video tbh, ur videos are always interesting 🖤
Mmmkay~~~
I think thats so interesting that other groups can hear the group on stage whilst putting on mics backstage. So interesting

Burning Sun talkksss and the other rumor :))
Thanks for today's tea! lol. I always knew music shows were tiring :( That's why I thought having so many music shows was unnecessary. I hope everyone had enough time to rest in between shows TT
I have a question do kpop idols get to pick if they want a handheld mic or a face mic??
It's good to know that you found Inkigayo as the best. My bias, GOT7's Jinyoung, was an MC for Inkigayo and it's nice to know that he, along with other idols, were in good hands.
Just wondering with the k-bands such as Day6 can they play their instruments live?
Thank you I was so curious about how music shows work and especially lip-syncing!
I wanted to ask you: can you talk about the whole process of a comeback? Like how the concept is chosen, how are lines distributed among members, everything about MV, promotion, choreography, and things like that!
Am I the only one that thinks she looks like Han Chowon from Produce 48?
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😝😝😝😃
Bruh performing on music shows is really hard actually...With how people expect idols to sing live and perfectly, if you're an idol, you have to sing, dance in those outfits, with jewelries hanging on you, with lots of makeup on your face and your hair done, manage to not look crappy and weird cause cameras are filming you AND also be careful about which camera you have to look at, not to mention that the projectors in those studios(?) make the stage super hot...all of these after hours of waiting in those rooms, while having woke up in early morning, probably not eaten enough food...That's CRAZY cause I feel so frustrated when I do the least amount of make up and have my hair loosen for parties and stuff after an hour, I feel like wanting to take EVERYTHING of of me asap, idols have to do that for 2 to 4 weeks, and atleast 3 days each week... I kind of understand why idols don't do live singing and people who expect them to do it well are being so selfish, they have to be on their shoes to know how hard it is and they write all of those hateful comments lying on their bed lol
Can you make a video on how idols are able to afford expensive cloths even if they are not able to alot of money. Love you😘😘
Fans give it to them, they get a lot of gifts.
I've noticed the 30%/50%/70% after watching hundreds/thousands of idol performances. Some members clearly have more backing vocal track over other members (usually the main vocals). Never knew it usually has fixed percentages though. Really interesting~
please do a video about in-ear monitors! :-))))
oh wow first: thank you for this video :) love your idol insider series!
and also I wanted to tell you that I actually have the same opinion on best and worst music shows. just by watching the performances of groups I like I remember that inkigayo always had the best stages and I was always excited for those and... hated music bank performances most of the time XD I don't know just by watching the performances the quality of the mics and the camerawork was really not the best... and now that I know the show takes so much time and energy from the artists as well... damn :/
but yes thank you so much for this info on music shows :)
Which group(s) would you say had the best live vocals?
Hi Christine, I love your videos! It's interesting to learn about the behind the scenes stuff and how much work goes into being an idol. I'm glad you are in a happier place. In your future videos, can you show us your skincare routine/makeup/GRWM? or how about a video with your other idol friends? Can you talk about idol's salary/allowances and how long and how much it takes to "break even"? I always wondered if idols got paid for media interviews, TV appearances, or reality shows, etc.
Can u do a video on camerawork.
MMKKAYY
Thank you for this video! I would really love one about the camera work!
Now, I have a question regarding the programs (that could be relevant to other videos about that topic): how can a group get a "slot" on them? Do the companies have to pay something to have their groups in a music show or the TV stations are the ones that pay or select for free the participants? I ask because, for some big groups (with more money), we see 1 to 2 months promotions while, for smaller ones (with little to no money), it tends to last just a couple of weeks (up to a month) and they only show up in a few shows. Note that I'm not talking about stage decoration. I'm asking about how is it decided who are the groups that are going to present themselves in a music show.
The pr manager or manager will be the one trying to get a slot the more powerful you are in the industry the more you have a chance of preforming
@@soobeanie, so... that's the old game of influence. That's unfair, but I already expected that, because that's how things seem to work in the entertainment industry everywhere. :(
I really thank you for the answer! :D
Seriously loving these videos♡
Thanks 💕 Means a lot~
I'm honestly PRESSED that I didn't know about Blady while it was still around, since the Blady songs that I've now heard are pretty much exactly the style I was listening to back then lol. Never too late to stan you now though, Tina 💖
Question 1.)Can u pls talk about behind the sense of kpop like all the very very dark side (eg:how girls survive at condition when even male idols are been abused??)
Question2.)All about things like what happens when u are nota a kpop idols any more (cause some if idols leave their studies and also don't graduates or attend collage???)
Question3.)How do they live and how do they earn ??
Question4.)Do they get job as cafe worker or what??
Question 5.)Also as a foreigner do I have to join a foreigner Korean school and then what cillade or academy should i join for vocal and kpop training????
Thanks♥😘😍🤗
TH-cam suddenly recommended me this video and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have always had an interest on the process and behind the scenes actions of music shows and how idols perform. I think my favorite information was when you said you could hear everyone singing when you are putting on your mics and know who the main vocals were based on that lmao.
Can you touch more on that process? Like are groups who aren't doing any activities during down time just waiting in their room until they get called up? or are they allowed to monitor other groups performances? Like if you were going to be performing ahead of another group you really liked, would you be able to actually watch the performance instead of viewing it from the room?
Can you also do a video on the differences of performing in each music show. I imagine that it is a pretty similar structure in how they do things but I'm curious if there are distinct differences.
Do you also know how MCs are picked for music shows and how long their contracted to be an MC? I've always been confused of them and why some have goodbye stages.
Sorry, I have so many questions. This is one of a few videos I've watched and am new to the channel, I definitely subscribed bc the tea is real and I love knowing about the processes of these things. Please let me know if any of my questions or requests have been done already, I'd love to go check it out.
Omg girl! Spill the tea about number exchanges PLEASE. Thanks again for your great videos :) you made my day.
NO PROBLEM GLAD YOU LIKED ITTT
