Yes, and its getting ridiculously pathetic.
Theres maybe 1 actually talented person worthy of being called an "artist" out of every 4 idol groups
Meanwhile there are tons of actually talented artists not getting any shine because "they're not as pretty"


Indie >>>>> mainstream

But now a days... Everything is related to politics...
You got to know someone that knows someone, etc.
You can't break into the business as easily before, not that it ever was.

But yeah I do agree, valid points.

Best two examples I can think of would be 윤하 and 노이영 of 애프터스쿨
They were both child prodigies growing up, but because they're not as "pretty" they don't get shit for attention
윤하 is easily a top 10 artist that Korea produced ever

Did you ever watch the movie with the girl that could sing... But was butt ass ugly...
So they got her a cover girl and she sang back stage?

What was that movie called...
But this is what everything reminds me of.
