Music is bad generally, but these active chill videos are especially bad because of the dancing and they have concentration camps for.
North Korea should just hurry up and invade South Korea so they can ban all this music.

NKPOP is bad, but it's more calm and patriotic than SKPOP which is OK in my book(s?):

the only cool thing about both j-pop and k-pop is anytime someone sincerely brings them up you can say "yeah more like GAY-pop" right before you push them over and it works equally well for both

No in Korea young female celebrities work as high price prostitutes on the side with their talent agency acting as pimp.

Not even kidding.

This is actually true, but pretty much for all Korean female (and some male) entertainers.

There is pretty much no indie scene in Korea, and everything has to go through one of the massive entertainment companies.

Talent agents go to modelling agencies and pick out girls with the right moves (if they can actually sing it's a bonus, but is in no way a requirement). They offer them a contract with a yearly salary that public school teachers would consider a pay-cut. They get them some face time and get the public interested. . . this is where decision time happens.

A. They agree to sleep with all the dirty old men their agency wants them to, and in turn they get more face time and incremental pay raises.
B. They don't agree to become a literal whore and receive no more exposure or opportunities until their contract (one year usually) runs out and are cut loose.

There have been a ton of suicides of K-Pop stars and actresses, but there is never a note left behind (unless it is screened first). The entertainment companies are thought to bribe the police so that if there is any mention of the poo poo they have to do to become/stay famous in a suicide note, it's destroyed. There have been a few cases where notes were found by friends/relatives before the police arrived, but they always disappear. Now all stars have handlers who will keep tabs on them and have full access to their apartments so that it is easier to make sure this never happens. Anyone who has ever spoken out about this kind of stuff is usually going against a NDA, so they get sued into oblivion or they get smeared/harassed until they finally off themselves.

I don't know about China, but Japan is apparently still very much like this. It's basically the life of a "second string" actress in the early decades of hollywood.

This is also good.

Kpop is at its worst when the artists pretend to be hardcore rappers and at its best when they let the soul flow.
