I Want To Be A K-Pop Idol: Can Intensive Bootcamps In South Korea Help? - Part 2 | Talking Point
Переглядів 624,752
День томуK-pop bootcamps organised by foreign-based companies have become popular in Korea. Many promise participants an authentic taste of idol life and a shot at getting casted as trainees. Munah Bagharib follows 14-year-old Singaporean idol hopeful, Kade, as she embarks on a 10-day intensive bootcamp in South Korea. Can bootcamps really score participants a contract with major K-pop labels? Or are they simply a marketing gimmick?

What's ironic is a lot of idols who are in the biggest groups were scouted and passed auditions despite having no singing or dancing abilities. I think becoming a trainee is sheer luck/happenstance and then it's afterwards the sheer hard graft starts.

After seeing too many underaged idols’ parents letting their kids debut at very very young age, I am very satisfied with Kade’s father’s response. Now that I’m older, do wish idols should at least graduate high school before being a trainee / debuting. I wish 18+ isn’t old enough to start. Nowadays kpop company started recruiting kids as young as 8, which is crazy.
@user-hy3xb1vy7d 3 місяці тому
unfortunately 18 is most of the agency's cut off age for auditions and the older you are, the harder you get in because they tempt to learn slower and agency want him or her to be ready to debut before trainee turn 20.

Besides even with the slight chance that they do, the public still has to like you. Some people get the easier way in life to make big money but the incredibly high majority don't.

I know her parents think they are doing her a favor but getting a call from a big company is pretty much a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be a shame to watch them prematurely cut her wings. I understand their concern but there most likely won't be that opportunity waiting for her once she reaches 21 as her dad wanted. I think if she gets through, they should really discuss it together. Some people's strengths are not all in academics and it's unfair to value it over everything else imo.

@@jonyq Kpop truly is a dream though.... You have a higher chance of becoming a CEO of a country than debuting as an idol (especially a successful one). Not to mention how unhealthy the trainee life alone is. Yes, if you're older than 18 your chances of making it through any audition are really really slim but I'd say developing eating disorders, getting depression and having to deal with the insane amount of hate you receive once you debut is not worth it. She and so so many trainees are way too young to face any of this. Getting proper education is much more important so she has much more freedom to choose a career later on. If you become a trainee at 12-13 (if not younger) and don't debut then you're literally messed up for life.

I got contacted by YG when I auditioned for them online, I was 15 back then. I'm 25 now and thinking back, it was definitely the best decision for me to reject them and gave up on dreaming to be a Kpop idol. I thought a lot about my freedom, what I really wanted to do with my life thus it wouldn't be guaranteed that I would have passed the later in person auditions or even debuting. Being a Kpop idol is not an easy job, it takes a lot of passion and dedication from a person for every single day. Definitely not for me. Good luck to whoever dreams or trying to pursuit their dream of being a Kpop idol.

The entertainment industry is a gamble. Even if you get in, staying in is a different story. When a Korean agency picked the final 7 of what's to become the first all-Filipino boy group to debut in Korea, Hori7on, the boys already knew that it was going to be a blood bath from then on, from what kind of training they experienced from Korean coaches. In an interview, Reyster even somewhat expressed the thought of giving up but that his fellow members are the ones anchoring him to stay strong. It gave us SEA K-pop fans a glimpse of what it's like to fight for a place and what it takes to keep that place theirs. I really do hope more Southeast Asians can make it to the K-pop scene. I believe it's a matter of giving it your all and showing that you're hungrier than anyone else. It's not going to be easy but given that K-pop popularity is only growing globally, anyone can have the chance as long as you're willing to climb to the standards that their predecessors in the industry had set.

I think extra-curriculars and following your dreams should be encouraged, but parents need to draw the line at extreme beauty standards that lead to plastic surgery or extreme diets at a young age.

@@ximonwhhatt3796 Actually I am very familiar w K-pop system. Sure most don’t write/choreo their music cuz they’re main role is essentially of performers/entertainers. There are exceptions like BTS, Bigbang, Psy etc which write produce own music. But just cuz idols are not writing own music don’t mean there’s no artistry in the production. Obviously somebody has to write the songs and create chereos for them so artists are involved behind the scene. Western “artists” aren’t that much different. Most of the time they’re singing someone else songs and dancing to hired chereos as well. The value of K-pop in global stage is that it gives visibility to Asian music/culture/people while creating pan-Asian experiences. Just as these Singaporean kids grown up listening to kpop and now aspiring to be one. K-pop platform gives them that opportunity to potentially be global star in a heavily Western dominated field.

People need to understand the reality of being a famous Kpop idol is like winning the lottery. You have a much better chance at simply becoming a decent famous youtuber with your kpop dance training, and just make a vlog about trying on clothes, doing some fitness workouts, and showing off your youth and beauty and you'll make plenty of money. 0.00001% you will be like Blackpink. 30-40% chance you can become a famous social media influencer. There are plenty of girls out there who just try on clothes in front of a camera and make $100,000K a month.

I have a CO worker who's really into kpop especially the girl groups. I asked him what he loves about it and he keep saying the same stuff that they're talented and how great the songs are...I just said. You know how to tell if it's actually good music or not? Think about your favorite group and instead of them being young beautiful girls, its a group of 50 year old aunties singing and dancing these songs, would you still be interested? His face changed and his shoulders dropped..."well No"

Kpop has always been about selling the idols with parasocialing and everything. It was never about the music or the concept. Which I why I like Kpop groups that come out of Modhaus as they're the only company that really prioritizes concept and music. They do sell the idol as well since it's Kpop but that's not the main thing they prioritize.

This makes me think of ATEEZ's Yeosang. His parents were not supportive, but they did say he could train as long as he kept up in school (I think it was a special science/tech school). He said he studied until 10 or 11 at night and then did training. I can't imagine how hard it must've been to pull that off. But I do think it's important that trainees have a back up plan because noone can see the future.

to tell you the truth the boot camp is a warming for what comes later, trainers have it harder, even after debuting is still a struggle because they have a lot of competence, not until they become famous and well know at that moment is when they can enjoy it a little, also if you are not at least half Korean/asiatic forget being an idol(becoming a dancer is more plausible), or mayyyyybe they can debut in reaaaally small kind of indie groups, so far none of them have been famous

I can tell how much the girl wants to be an idol, she is more than pretty and talented, the most significant is she is very determined at this age. I wish I could have the courage to go to another country and look for the bare chance to do what I love if I was as young as she. But now I'm old, after experiencing ups and downs, I kind of agree with her Dad, no offense, just think the Dad's opinion is a much safer choice.

Kpop agencies still prefer asians / east asian looking faces. That's not to discourage westerners for trying to achieve this goal but in an industry where looks are weighed sometimes more heavily than talent and strict beauty standards. Westerners making the final lineup would most likely be a long shot at best imo.
@alrose8870 2 місяці тому
JYP tried to stem the tide by creating VCHA, a mostly foreign idol group. But even with such opportunity, gaining local and even international fans is the next challenge. VCHA has moderate success as of now, and most of that is because they are under JYP.
@qwertybirds 2 місяці тому
@@alrose8870 Yeah kuddos for jyp for going out on a limb with vcha but I just don't see them taking off much past the initial excitement of their debut. Something about when companies try to plug western members into the "K-pop formula" (even though it might not technically be considered kpop) it never seems to work. Great example being BlackSwan after years, several lineup changes, and rebranding they seem like a group that's just barely hanging on

@@qwertybirds I agree, at first it can create curiosity but after... I think that for vcha it will be like a wave , Maybe I'm wrong That's the difficulty, to stay in consecutive popularity especially if there are no Korean members too
