Aren’t Global Auditions racist in a way?
WARNING: This is a serious article. I hope your feelings aren’t taken strongly about this. you will post in a mature way, rather than bash.
“Your nationality or your age does not matter” – Amber, from f(x) to promote SM Global Audition
In a way Amber, it does.
Imagine it this way. A K-Pop fan who has pretty good vocal and dancing skills believes he/she has a big ambition to debut in South Korea. Whether it’s as a solo artist or in a group with other people, it does not matter. He/she has a high hope of passing the audition and training under the enertainment company they have selected. The problem? The person is not accepted because they are not Asian or do no look Asian at all.
It may seem harsh, but if you think of it this way, Enertainment Global Auditions seem to only target Asian people however there are slim chances of other races getting in to be trainees at enertainment companies for example, I remember someone uploaded a YouTube video of three SM trainees, one of the girls was Half-Black, Half-Japanese but she didn’t look Asian at all.
A copy of an SM audition information form proves my point.
SM/JYP/YG – Merging a group together?
Before you may get excited, yes. Above is a picture of JQT and B2ST. But that’s not the point.
And no. It’s not happening…at least I don’t think so. and I doubt those three would do so.
This is all for fun, people so please comment.
There doesn’t seem to be a lot of thread posting here, obviously because we all have lives and are busy but I had thought of this idea for fun but, what if SM, JYP and YG created a group together consisting of one of the best trainees in each company for a member?
Of course, since we don’t know many of the trainees, I was wondering who people would put into a 3 member girl group and/or boy group of SM/JYP/YG artists. It’s just for fun for people to do and it doesn’t matter how many members are in there.
There’s:
SM - DBSK, Super Junior, CSJH, SNSD, SHINee, f(x)
JYP/Cube - Wonder Girls, 2PM, 2AM, 4minute, BEAST
YG - Big Bang, 2NE1, Se7en
Anybody from the companies is fine. And make as many as you want. ^_^
For my choice, it would be:
Boy group – Taemin, Jaebeom, Taeyang.
Girl group - Sulli, Gayoon, Minzy.
Strange combination, I know but what are yours?
[UPDATED MV] I’ve missed them! T_T
It’s been a while since I’ve cried for 2PM during the Jaebeom situation but now that they are back with an album (13 good tracks if I do say myself, I’m impressed!) The music video has been added in.
I’ve missed them…so much. T_T
