Possibly that one woman was funding it and wanted to debut but they said that maybe they'd do better as a group and got one together.

It's interesting to think that people heavily applaud and praise Red Velvet's Irene because she's "too pretty" for her age and people are fascinated by the fact that " _she's reaching 30s but she's still gorgeous i love her_ " mentality and yet people hate it for some reason if an idol debuts older than average idol age.

And if you go do something else, you have a training debt on you that would take 20-30 years to pay off. You think you can escape the sunk cost fallacy?

Me too, especially when you started training in the late years after some time just leave. I mean she could have built an alternative career by now. Best look for her

[@AnonyMous-lh3cm]

Because one of the obligations a management company generally has is that they HAVE to debut an idol within a certain time period or the idol can walk away or sign with a new management company and owes them no reimbursement for training costs. By debuting “a group”, EVEN if only one of the members is ever promoted, featured or showcased as long as the other girls debuted and are technically “members” of an active group the companies have met that portion of the contract. It’s rare but there are actually former idols who have mentioned that they have been released by some management companies because they weren’t able to debut them, whether it be they were focusing their efforts on other groups or artists at the time, didn’t have the funds or simply didn’t have a group with a concept they would fit at the time.

[@tillycomedy2194]

you never saw the other members so how could be sure they were fine with it? 😂 they probably weren't listened to and brushed off when they tried to speak to management. the ceo or whatever was probably related to soye in some way. or they were dating. the other members had no power basically.

Sera was a member in the group NineMuses or 9Muses in 2010 with 'No playboy' but left the group in 2014 after the Gun comeback (if I remember right now...). She started a YT channel (Sera Ryu) were she reacted to MV and Comebacks from small and larger groups, as she said, she's doing that to promote unpopular groups which in my opinion is a very lovely thing to do. (Maybe because her group, who had a lot of people looking forward but then didn't become so popular and since the girl had - to keep it short - not a nice time - and so some of them wanted to leave as soon as possible to debut solo (again it's only what I can remember)). She as a person is also very kind and sweet, she's a big fangirl of LOONA and DREAMCATCHER. I know her since she got - I think that it was in a @Ploopy678 video when she got meansioned the documentary. It's been a bit of time now but I basically watched the NineMuses documentary by the BBC which documented their debut (They weren't to interfere in their debut process btw...) and her face was the one where my brain was like "the others are pretty to but I love her face a lot and want to learn more about her"

She didn't failed, by any stretch of definitions, she had 10+ years experience working in an extremely competitive industry. Disbandment isn't a failure of the artists, it's the failure of the company that promoted said artists. While many took the disbandment of their group as a sign of the end of their career, Jimsil instead chose to persevere with her dream & never gave up, no matter how many odds stacked against her, & that's respectable as heck! She's a talented dancer, so i'm sure there are still many more opportunities for her, as long as she wants to. I wish her the best luck for her future endeavours & will be following her career with great interest!

[@mariyannuism]

I never paid much attention to backup dancers but this video really made me think about them a lot more. I hope she can find her way again as a dance teacher or a youtuber tbh, it takes a lot of courage to try so many times without giving up! As for the question, I don't think I would last a single month as an idol. The industry is, as Kpopalypse said, obsessed with idols' physical perfection while completely disregarding their physical health at the same time. So I would probably get sick after days of 12-14 hours of dance practice in a row. And of course there's the look aspect, if you're not insanely pretty you won't make it no matter how talented you are, and even in Jinsil's case you can be pretty and talented and still not make it unless you have a lot of luck.

[@dragonrider4279]

I appreciate the effort but I first didn't realize it until I read your comment, even tho I AM German myself lol. Thx for telling me! At first I very much thought that it was a different way of writing a number, like the 'hexagon' thing(?). I would just guess to try to be popular and to get the public to talk about them, because German is for some reason (I know 1930s to 1940s VERY ungly stuff...) extremely popular on the internet. {I know that (we're "popular") because even tho I myself usually thing about the things from 80 years ago, but then the internet also reminds me, no worries I can deal with it very good. :D (it's an emotional mix of: sadness, hate, a sprinkle of embarrassment [the kind were you almost want to scream because you can't understand how... much stupidity you have to have, just from hunger, homelessness, poor(-ness). Basically you know their past but you still can't understand how incredibly hateful you have to feel for those things to end up with these unforgettable things], and last but not least confusion for their ways with dealing with depression.) Like: wtf just *how* can you tor.ture others and can be like "nope that's perfectly fine". Oh dear I *don't*, never ever, not in infinite, like them. (-> they upset me a lot) Just call them pigs, they deserve it so so so... so much xD.} Therefore I guess that if someone said "oh that's German", then their group has a chance of becoming famous, as a consequence because people are talking about them. :)

You're not the star but you are still the part of the show wearing cute clothes. Also, you get a chance to meet many celebrities! I love that!!

Haha, given PF's history, it's extremely fitting that she'd end up working with Pink Fantasy in SOME capacity :D Is Moontrue her dancer stage name? The other choreographer is Peacock for both songs Moontrue is credited for, and i think they work with the group still. Debuting a 30 year old is not something companies usually want to do, if this group is supposed to be kinda permanent, it seems the industry is afraid of people showing that they are indeed human and can age. Pink Fantasy themselves re-debuted Aina, who was 29 at the time, and she had to give up activity a year or so later due to developing pain in the limbs. It stands to reason that the "hidden member" is likely also around that age, but she's not going anywhere, i think. Pursuing idol's career? Mhm i happen to know someone who is crazy pretty, insanely good dancer, sings, secretly plays several instruments, composes, produces, is multilingual, has no trouble handling a lot of fans, and was scouted by agencies a number of times; but she always thought it's not worth it, not for the risks involved, crazy amount of work and mediocre prospects.

[@Vor567tez]

I think more than ageing it's the standard. Kpop idols generally have age range btw 15-16 to 24- 26 yr old. So it is understandable why they want to avoid taking someone too old. But I think she does have potential to be dance choreographer.

going to support jinsil as much as i can now. This series is so good and i hope you continue bc we get to see idols that have gone unnoticed and giving them the appreciation and support they deserve.

[@lolaao8121]

The amount of hard work you put into all of your videos... it’s amazing! You’re amazing! I really really enjoy your videos and I hope you get so much more attention on your channel... And just so much more

[@lilaclullaby]

These videos just make me appreciate how hard the people in the background work like damn girl

[@amaliadepinho]

this is honestly so sad and confusing ): thank you for sharing her story!

[@Kati-nt6cm]

Sometimes the things we want aren't always the thing we need. I believe she was meant to be a dancer, she would have been more successful that way. As negative as I may sound , it's sometimes it's to just give up and try new things . We aren't only meant for one thing. I hope her the best.

[@J_jae]

i love this series already, please do more in the future💜

[@emilytallent9677]

Jinsil seems like a kind, savvy, and hard working woman. it’s really a shame she had that streak of being in girl groups that kept disbanding, she seems like an amazing dancer and my heart aches for her to have success as an idol in the spotlight. like seriously, imagine spending your prime years (a kpop idols prime years tend to be 16-30) in a cycle of excitement and hope then being let down time and time again with each recruitment and then subsequent disbandment. after all of that, by now, you are “ToO oLd” to be a kpop idol. I’d feel like my “chance” was wasted. I hope she is doing well and has an abundant life. I really wish things would change for ageism in kpop.

[@Queeniiiie]

While she may have been horribly unlucky with being a Kpop star she at least was a very successful dancer!

[@9xprincess]

I'm surprised so never was able to use her connections to debut in at least a solid mid-tier company.....

[@violent___serenity]

I love your editing style and sense of humor. Also your research seems pretty thorough and delivery is easy to understand. Hope you can be healthy so we can see more from you! 👍

[@OGseoulite]

Here’s a fun theory to think about: what if during Scream era the masked dancer that was in Handong’s place was a different trainee every stage performance and that’s why everyone thinks she’s a different person. Cause each girl IS and that Scream era was their test to see if they’re prepared to debut? Just something fun y’all free to add your own or even theories from other eras too!❤️‍🔥

[@mckennaaaaaaaaa]

wow i had no idea she choreographed pink fantasy's fantasy and playing house! fantasy is an amazing choreo that lutist love. she's super talented and i really hope she does succeed in her future endeavors.

They way she kept going and nt giving up I think she should among most never giving up people's list

[@TryinBin8889]

I learned BLASTAR 'one way' choreography and streamed the sht out of it for MONTHS. All up until their disbandment. They and SECRET NUMBER were my favourite debuts of the year and I streamed them endlessly. It actually hurt my heart when we recieved the news of BLASTARs disbandment, and looking how SECRET NUMBER is going as well, I'm feeling down

[@sitinurulfajriati6429]

Nooo, pleaseee Don't stop supporting SECRET NUMBER, even tho we're still not getting any information abt their comeback, but I still believe that they're working on their comeback(according to some hints the members have given). We have to trust them. But at the end of the day, it's your choice tho, so, it's not like I'm going to force you or someting 😅 anyways, Stan SECRET NUMBER y'all ❤️

[@TryinBin8889]

@@sitinurulfajriati6429 yeah, I don't plan on leaving anytime soon, I love our girls, I'm just worried. I too am patiently waiting for their comeback. We gonna make it work for them!! ❤

[@maskidle]

@@sitinurulfajriati6429 fr though secret number cb has been long overdue. Maybe the company is currently struggling financially since Vine is alsto a small company. I sincerely hope they're currently working on something. They still upload in their KZbin channel though every once in a while so that's a good sign at least.

[@texasktea]

Omg please don't put that bad juju on secret number. I love them sm!!

[@allanmhanson]

YG launched 2 girl groups in 15 years…. I think they had thousands of trainees to pick this 8 girls. So it’s a sad sad world.

[@elli934]

There's a member of MINIMANI whose been a member of five groups her name is Suhyun I would say she's pretty unlucky.

[@bland3760]

I remember finding out about Heeso from being announced as a new member of Global Icon, I didn’t know she had this whole career afterwards.

[@scottietrademark]

This is when fans, like me and you, follow many underrated groups and support when we can!! I'm glad there's people with any form of following that talk about groups/idols like this.

[@aprils1888]

GUYS! I just wanna announce to everyone! I knew Heeso, since she was in Various, because that's when I joined the kpop cult.

[@alexhopkinz9871]

I remember when she debuted with Global Icon. I also stanned AGirls, Various, and Blastar (Hexe not so much)

[@GuranPurin]

Would honestly love to see a video on HEXE because that is one...bizarre situation to be in. It's like how everyone views Destiny's Child but the other members unironically LEGIT barely existing. That said, I do hope Jinsil maybe makes a KZbin channel or something where she can be better seen. She'd make a fantastic dance teacher with all of her experience.

[@reshiram_resha4615]

Even though I don't listen to kpop much , I have always heavily been interested in learning more about the k-pop working industry and especially about artists who don't become successful even after working so hard 😢 I love this series , thanks for going out of your way and researching about this toxic k-pop working industry.

[@alexkundert6441]

I love these so much! I always watch ur vids they are so Amazing!

[@BleachBlue04]

“It makes no sense to close off these opportunities based off of age.” Unfortunately for a lot of entertainment industries, it makes sense because it all boils down to one thing: Pedophilia. Look at the show that formed Twice, Sixteen. Watch that show and see how every underage person on that show was sexualized. The “pink Lamborghini” performance was evidence enough. Jinsil is so freaking gorgeous STILL but you wouldn’t be able to tell she’s 30 until you look at her profile like 🤢 YG 🤢 did. It’s disappointing because she’s just as talented as many idols who have “made it”. But it doesn’t matter about talent in this disgusting industry…

[@kyoungd]

Who is paying for "entertainment"? Who is the core audience for Twice and Sixteen? If 30 year-old idols can sell to these group, they will be 30 year old girl groups.

the prize for the shortest peried in a group goes to heeso! joke aside, for real, how can you as an agency set a meber into a group for about 11 days?

[@alexia3552]

Luck, connections, and money continue to be THE deciding factors when it comes to careers that require you to out-compete others. When the only ones who make money in a field are the top 0.001%, hard work does not determine your success.

[@eugive4112]

you should attempt to make a video on 24k and all it’s member problems and “redebuts” >.

[@michellesmirnova4471]

I used to be a pretty big 24K fan when I first got into k-pop because they were decently popular around debut and I ended up going to a concert of theirs I’m sad that shit became so messy later on, I’m still unsure of what exactly happened

[@tessanvt7260]

@@michellesmirnova4471 Having 5 of the 6 original members and a manager blacklisted by the government certainly didn't help them. Aside from the sketchy management moves

[@loon7181]

I remember being so shocked when nobody knew them when they went on mixnine. Being an international fan ofc I knew them and they had a decent international following, but they were unknown in Korean. And not like other groups that are mainly popular in the west, they were just unknown.

[@kpopgirl1992]

This series is so interesting! I hope you cover a male idol next, i want to see if there’s anyone who’s also as unlucky as these two girls.
