Many fans are curious about K-Pop stars' real personalities. As the stars are shown on the stage or TV only, ordinary people can't figure out if the K-Pop star is good-natured or not. Who do you think is the good-natured K-Pop star? Let's talk about Kpop singers' real personalities.
Actually, most of K-Pop stars look good-natured as long as they are with influential people in show business such as TV producers or reporters. During years of trainee period, they take not only vocal lessons but also etiquette lessons. With a loud voice, the idol stars usually make a deep bow in front of people concerned.
Let's take a look at an example that shows the effect of education. In Korea, the drama 'The Queen's Classroom' has been aired through MBC. Unlike other dramas, child actors took the major roles in the drama. In Korea, child actors usually participate in the filming with their moms. However, among the cast of 'The Queen's Classroom', there was one child actor who made a contract with entertainment agency to be trained as a K-Pop star. Most of child actors ran to their parents after finishing the shooting. However, on the contrary, the child actor who has been trained by the agency, stopped by each of staffs to make a deep bow. Isn't it amazing?
Now, I shall talk about good-natured K-Pop stars. In former days, I have visited Tokyo to watch 2PM's Tokyo Dome concert. After the event, I met with 2PM members at a wrap-up party. All six members have attended the party. In fact, it is exceptional that K-Pop artists attend the wrap-up party with reporters in person. As a general rule, staff members from the artists' agency attend the party instead of them. However, without looking displeased, 2PM members expressed their thanks to every single attendee for visiting the group's concert. It was quite impressive. When I was about to leave the party, member Jun.K held out his hand for handshaking, saying he was so sorry for not giving a greeting because there were too many attendees.
2PM's proper conduct might be influenced by Park Jin Young, the chief producer of JYP Entertainment. Last year, when I had an interview with Park Jin Young, he said "JYP artists are the ones who are good-natured. I pick out singers who are good-hearted and modest."
TVXQ is also recognized as a good-natured K-Pop star. It has been 10 years since the duo debuted, but they are still friendly to everyone. When I visited their concert held at the Nissan Stadium of Yokohama, I could verify how faithful they are. TVXQ did their level best for everything. Their extended service to fans was a clear template of how a true superstar should act. They tried to make eye contact with every single fan to satisfy all the fans. They also answered all the questions asked by reporters in the sincere and frank way. At the end of a press interview, U-Know Yunho waved a greeting to one reporter who is an old acquaintance with him.
Big Bang's G-Dragon is well-known for behaving politely to others. '90 degree bow' is his trademark! Check out the video clip below. K-Pop rookies usually do this because they are trained by agency to do so.
Of course, not all the K-Pop stars are good-natured. There are some arrogant stars too. Years ago, I went to the back stage to have an interview with K-Pop girl group.(I shall not say who they are) Most of the members, except for one member(She is the leader of the group), treated people with an arrogant manner. They listened to people in an absent sort of way. The leader struggled by herself to smooth things over. However, on the stage, the rest members made a fake smile. I've never met anyone so two-faced.
Oh, I hope you don't misunderstand me. There are much more good-natured K-Pop stars than arrogant stars.
Have you ever been curious about k-pop idols' microphones? Unless you are a professional, it’s difficult to know the details about the microphones. However, there’s a very simple way to make a guess at what kind of microphone your favorite idol star uses. Well, the way is to classify the microphones by their colors. Colors of microphones do not always mean everything, but like I said, you can at least make a guess at what kind of microphones those are. Flesh-Colored Microphone You might see the flesh-colored microphones frequently in various k-pop chart shows. Those are the basic microphones offered by the broadcasting company. People in the k-pop world usually call it "Band-Aid." The microphone is cheap, and it doesn't perform well. However, it doesn't matter because not a few incompetent idols depend on their AR and just pretend to sing live. Black Microphone The black microphone is not offered by the broadcasting company. If an idol group's
I’m sure you’re very curious about k-pop trainee’s daily schedule. Well, it differs from case to case, but let me explain about the general case. If you become a k-pop trainee, you should follow the daily schedule below. 8 a.m. : School attendance As most of k-pop trainees are students, they should go to school in the morning. They try not to skip breakfast if possible because it’s important for them to manage their health. At their school, they take classes just like the other ordinary students, but they usually listen to music during break time to make preparations for their weekly test. They sometimes write song lyrics, while there are also some passionate trainees who practice singing and dancing at their school. 5 p.m. : Go to practicing room After school is over, trainees go to their practicing rooms. The first thing they do when they arrive at their practicing rooms is give their cellphones and diaries to people who manage them. They get their cellphones back after the
"Do k-pop idols really sing live? It's not an easy question to answer because the answer to the question could be both yes and no. Well, I want to talk about details about k-pop idols' live performance on the stage. Have you heard about MR, AR, LMR, and LAR? If you get to know about these terms, you will be able to have a good understanding of k-pop idols' live performance." MR(Music Recorded) Basically, MR means instrumental accompaniment. Have you been to karaoke? MR is like karaoke music which doesn’t contain the sound of singer’s voice. However, there is no k-pop idol who uses such a clear MR, while all the k-pop idols’ MR contains sounds of their voices. Before performing their songs on k-pop chart shows, k-pop idols should make their MR, and the way how they make MR is to decrease the sound volume of their voices in original music, while keeping the sound volume of instrumental accompaniment as it is. So, to k-pop idols, singing to MR doesn’t j
In 2014, EXO's Chinese member Kris filed a lawsuit against SM entertainment, insisting that his exclusive contract with the agency should be nullified. And he finally left the agency, while another Chinese EXO member Luhan also filed a lawsuit against SM in the year. And in 2015, Tao decided to leave the agency too. After filing lawsuits, they said “SM didn't respect us at all. SM has treated us like subjects of control and determined our schedules unilaterally. And we had economic difficulties despite much work.” Well, I think many of k-pop fans may consider unfair contract between SM and the Chinese members as the main reason why the idol singers filed lawsuits. You know, it was not the first time that SM’s idol singer filed a lawsuit against the agency. The former TVXQ members Kim Junsu, Park Yoochun and Kim Jaejoong had been in a legal battle with SM for about 3 years, while Hangeng of Super Junior has also filed a lawsuit against SM, insisting that his contract wit
Have you watched “We Got Married”? As you know, the program is about male and female stars who entered their imaginary married life. Well, some of you may wonder if the couple's love for each other is real. Let's talk about the truth about “We Got Married.” Is WGM Scripted? Before filming the program, the production crew delivers scripts to the cast. However, the scripts of “We Got Married” are totally different from those of dramas or movies. The scripts of “We Got Married” do not have any detailed words. They just include general explanation of situation. For example, “It’s the day you move into your new apartment,” “It’s the day you introduce your wife to your friends,” etc. On the basis of the scripts, the cast prepares for clothes, accessories and more. And during filming the program, the production crew occasionally intervenes in the couple’s dating because the young cast who is unused to a real variety show such as SHINee's Taemin and APink's Naeun needs
