That is how it is here in America most of these girls who, like these K-pop artist in America are mostly overweight and obese, that’s who make up most of the fan based in American K-pop pandemonium because they know they’re not dating these kind of guys in real life because I hate to be rude guys don’t want obese and overweight girls so they fantasize about these K-pop boys because they’re not dating K-pop looking guys or tall guys with muscles and money in real life and these boys and girls will not have to worry about their looks if it was not about fandom because overweight and obese girls want handsome guy, tall, slam, muscles, famous, or not so my thing is BTS 17 all these people were overweight they would not have made this a phenomenon. It is not healthy to be skinny skinny, but it is not healthy to be overweight either so maybe these fans especially in America needs to understand you want someone who’s healthy and in shape as a man they get healthy and in shape, the hypocrisy here in America is the problem. That’s what lead to depression. These artists feel that they have to be perfect but if bts and these other K-pop artist were overweight they would not have made this phenomenon and they know it. So does LOOKS have something to do with it. You don’t have to kill yourself because of depression, famous or not get the help you need. It is OK to reach out.

Music isn't about looks, it's about expressions, it's an art in your ear. I wish they could understand that

Be yourself , that is matters , i have a big mole on my nose someone ask me to cut off or operate then i answered no way to let a knife cut my face , if i am not beautiful it is okay who care, yet withe mole on my nose attracted more men to date me they said i am looked so sweet with the mole on my nose especially when i am laughing or smiles , to bragging more other men from different races too try to date me yet i choose one man to be my husband that he dont mind with my mole , mole of love indeed

Mistreatment also happens in other industries in U.S. Music and in others. Also SA and other horrific crimes in Hollyweird. I feel sorry for everyone who has gone through stuff and are going through stuff today. I pray for you all to be free and heal. Stay strong. In industries and in general.

wow so amber lost three people due to suicide..? this world is so cruel. rip sulli, and rip julian & jay leung.

appearance wise there's definitely a divide because men don't have to be skinny skinny, they have to be fit, meaning a lil havier but with muscles and abs which is 100x easier to control, vs the pretty girl standard, which is thin asf

And likes same seks

Because of this i hate exo chen now

Mezarındayken bile rahat bırakmıyorlar ve Sulli nin ölmediğini iddia eden fanları ise sadece Sulli nin ölümüne katlanamadıkları için böyle saçma bir iddia çıkardılar mezarında iyi uykular Sulli ❤ Anne olmadan ölm*k istemiyorum Sulli…….

I can't STAND Amber but I'm so thankful she spoke up about this. The kpop industry is so horrible I will never understand why anyone would want be an idol. Especially a female idol. You can never please the industry as a female idol. It's so insane how idols aren't even humans. The moment they're under the spotlight they're a doll. I don't know how many deaths it'll take kpop stans to realize that THEY'RE the problem. No, it's not just the companies. It's you guys. You guys set these insane standards for kpop idols and expect them to live up to it then get mad when they can't do things that aren't humanly possible. Idols have emotions. They can't seem happy all the time, they can be confused, they can make mistakes, they can raise up their own flags, they can make a mistake and not see someone greeting them. Another suicide will happen as the standards continue getting higher and higher. And you guys will make your edits for a week, say your condolences, blame the companies then forget a couple days later. You'll say "Oh idols are humans 🥺" or "protect __." Then go right back to talking shit about the ones you don't like. Know the difference between hate and criticism. Stop sexualizing idols, stop treating them like newborn babies, hold them accountable, realize they aren't perfect, and stop having parasocial relationships with these strangers. Idols are not your besties that can do no wrong. You do NOT know these people. If you want to start treating them like humans then treat them like you would any other person. The industry killed Sulli and all the other idols who have taken their lives.

Солли я тебя очень ❤😘люблю. Не могу поверить что такой красивой девушки нет больше с нами. Спи спокойно. Мы тебя очень любим. Прости нас что хейтеры были сильнее

So much pain😔

So schlimm man Lebt nicht man Stirbt Langsam ich bin ein Army aber würde mir das nicht wünschen für die K PoP Welt es sind immernoch so schöne Seeeleeen😢

Amber is such a angel 🌹🌹🌹she's always with you sulli as a angel 🌹🌹🌹

I’m not into her solo music and she has made mistakes, but I have more respect for her than other people that worked in this industry. She speaks the truth.

I respect and love Amber for speaking out against the industry and exposing them. You can tell she's so humble and chill. I really wish nothing but the best for Amber and I hope she's thriving still ❤️❤️

Just like how Lisa tries to express herself. And K-pop fans want another Sulli? sometimes I think some K-pop fans are actually devils in real life

The industry needs to CHANGE! FANS NEED TO CHANGE MORE!!!

F(x). They are the first kpop group that I stan. I missed them being in a group but I will always support them. ❤

For girls out there who dream to becomes idol, think more than 100times, it is as good & happy as you think ? More than sacrifice & struggles. Even maybe that not the real life you wanted. Can You Handle what company set the rules, can you handle toxic netizens, can you handle all the criticisms, can you handle many people try to put you down, can you handle comparison to other members, can you handle to see other member may lock good than you. Other member popularity more high. & many more.. 😓 Coz, we can see it’s possible for industry be fair enough to the artist.

Sulli was an angel. God only picks beautiful flowers for his garden that is why she left this chatic world so early

Rest in peace dear Sulli 😢 gone too soon

I feel bad for kpop idols, their popular and pretty outside but they’re not healthy and lack of sleep, rest 🥹

I don't think it's easier for the guys, and this interview almost feels like an agenda. This woman talks about hair length when she was the tomboy the whole time. Why bring up the guys all the time like it's the oppression olympics ? It's only 1% of mostly men and a handful of women that control everything. 99% of these celebs have no say, man or woman. If you're gonna bring the guys up, why not acknowledge that they have to watch their weight, that their height matters, that they're szxually harassed by older women? That they must always shave (no beard or mustache), can't have gfs let alone marry someone they want (sll h3ll breaks loose if she's a foreign wife), that their hair matters, their features matters, that the military while very important hinders their careers, and that they unalive themselves just as much? That they lose their careers over lies that get exposed when it's too late? For every Sulli, there's a Jonghyun (Shinee). Can she also acknowledge that the fangirls are the bodyshamers of kpop, and the industry takes notes to appeal to them? Either way, talk about your issues only as a girl, or be honest about both sides if you're gonna bring them up. It was low key misandrist, and that's just as problematic. This is not a competition. Imagine an indian person constantly comparing their challenges to a middle eastern person? What would that low key imply? Exactly.

The Korean pop bands are made to look young and feminine even if they are males- lots of makeup and no facial hair. and very cutesy, not too hip or bad ass. They just need to come to America and then they can look like they want to. Of course, I know this isn't available since they wouldn't have Us citizenship.

Man I feel so bad for these people.

So much of what she says is so very true. To be honest, when i first started listening to k-pop, i did feel that probably as a female I wont fit in any of the fandoms. Because of how perfect the female idols carry themselves, luckily I came across artists like Amber, Jessi, Mamamoo, who were direct, blunt, straightforward and did not hesitate to have male friends. After being introduced to them, i felt a little more comfortable being a kpop fan. Another point i would like to bring out is how unsupportive companies are to the idols. Hate comments, rumours, these idols have to fight such battles own their own, i feel the companies are purely feeding on the idol's popularity and monetary growth. Rest of the battles are fought by the idold and idol groups solely. Like why cant they date?, why cant they be married? why are they treated as if they are public property?

How these skin brightening works in South Korea? When I compare before and after of Kpop idols not their face but also their body has become at least two shades lighter ! How do they do that?

The vibe and attitude of Korean fandom are also the worst of all of its kind. Very toxic and aggressive. I really don't understand why.

I really wish it never happened 🥺, R I.P Sulli, Thank you for speaking up Amber

you can tell how Amber really brokenhearted when she started to talk about Sulli. 😢

Lol…dark side. The only K-pop idols that always end up betraying their group and bad mouthing them behind their backs despite their fame and success due to the k-pop experiences are the Chinese members. These facts well represents national characters of each country. No wonder why they are so much “shunned” by everyone all over the world.

I notice amber tried to give us a hint that sulli do not care about how peaple are seeing her she was cool about everything heppend around her, isn't true. Why everyone think that she died due to bullying 😑

Skinny and perfect face

I can’t imagine the strength to say this but it needs to be said. Stars are losing their lives and families are affected

Idolatry is a sin.Kpop industry maybe there is a connection of illuminati.But i tell you all Jesus is bigger than anything,Satan are going to lost in the end.There is already written in the prophecy.

Sadly, the industry that's keeping them alive is the same industry that is slowly killing them.

이건 k pop 뿐만 아니라 어느 연예계나 있는 현상중 하나인데... 물론 한국이 여자의 외모, 몸무게에 코멘트가 많긴 하지만...

I commend Amber for speaking up about the industry and what idols deal with all the time day in and day out. No one should have to be constantly critiqued to where they essentially lose themselves to fit in a certain mold for the industry. The fact that some develop anxiety and depression even as YOUNG TRAINEES is sad and needs to be stopped. I know that Jonghyun had dealt with depression since he was a young trainee and it is sad to hear about. Sulli, Goo Hara, Jonghyun, and many more didn't deserve all the pressure that they were under. I hope that Sulli, Jonghyun, and anyone that has taken their life from the pressure of this industry has found peace. 🙏🏻🩷🙏🏻💔🙏🏻🩷

now hatred towards jennie should be stop, im scared

Just Leave Kpop and focus on Western Pop Music ❤❤

this interview is so moving! Can I post it on Chinese video website? Chinese K-pop fans can hardly get access to KZbin, but i want to share it. I will state clearly that it’s your work and put the link. It is unprofitable of course, i just need your authorisation not to be illegal.

The last part tho. 🙄 Well, human are born to be jealous and also making comparison, what more if you a celebrity a public eye. If the celebrity wish to live their own life as they wish likewise others will also do the same to be jealous, envy, dissatisfaction, comparison to one another and that what Human do and that their life. So when your foot are stepped into the celebrity lifestyle. You should have already have had a strong EQ!!!! Simple!

I don't think those problems only exist in the kpop industry. I mean diet is general for female artists everywhere. The think about sulli, Hollywood is worst than that, I think most of top actress there have been doing naked scene before they are famous, literally most of it

I don't think people realize how impactful f(x) was to the kpop industry. They would've SLAYED the y2k train, especially sulli, it would've been her thing

看了乘风2023深深的喜欢上了amber，真的是一个宝藏女孩💜

I see Jennie from BLACKPINK getting a lot of hate in the same way. I hope she’s OK and takes care of her mental health. Why are people so mean?

That's why suicide rate for K Pop celebrities is high.

Shes definitely a girl lover… she should just comes out.

The darkest side of Kpop is the human trafficking and sex slavery going on especially exploiting young girls in the South Pacific Asia ... Constantly getting covered up and swept under the rug by Korean officials ... There are Jo-Pok (mob) ties as well as Elite society(Chae-buls) within Entertainment industry being involved ... BigBang’s Burning Sun Scandal was absolutely nothing and tip of iceburg to what really goes on to this present day and getting worse
