Does this sound kinda creepy to anyone else? She’s 14! She was born in ‘04. This is a part of Kpop that I have always found weird. Debuting anyone under 17 is very strange to me. What happens if they have a mature concept? Or a sexy choreo? For example: Minzy 14 yrs old (2NE1), or Seungri 15 yrs old (Big Bang), Taemin 14 yrs old (SHINee). Jang Won Young isn’t even in high school yet. Her (and many others) childhoods have been taken away. Minzy (and other idols) have talked openly about how debuting so young was so hard on them, and how they couldn’t have a childhood, and how stressed/unhappy they were. All of the people I have listed are very successful now, and without them (2ne1, SNSD, SHINee, Big Bang, and many more) KPOP wouldn’t be what it is now, but at what cost? Their childhood...
P.s. If it’s not obvious, I’m an old KPOP fan. I just turned 19, but have been into KPOP for 8+ years now.
