If Joo Hee Cho WABC-7 KNBC-7 Foreign Affairs correspondent who works alongside George Stephanopoulos is related to a Kpop idol from SM Entertainment can just interviewed that person then have her KNBC-7 correspondent in Los Angeles California go to Cal State Northridge class of 1985 records to find Lee Soo Man
Stan Loona and treasure
Those are just academies, it's like parents sending kids to dance or singing classes in LA. This Seoul reporter who's doing this report is basically just advertising SM groups though. No mention of the obvious and biggest group BTS. Now we know why lol
Knowing what I know about being an Idol….doesn’t sound very great to me. Sounds like a bunch of depression, eating disorders, and crazy fans pointing out how far and thin I’m getting every comeback.
Korean are awesome!!
Never rest for future!!
They know how to cultivates our bodies….

Please
Stop making another stereotype for Asian in america

11 million dollar budget for one school's K pop education? That's highly unlikely. I doubt the credibikity of this news.
This is so sad what social media is doing to these children.
ah yes, another western media that doesn't specialize in south korea and many other countries spreading exaggerated propaganda like judging a book by its cover.
To be subjected to such pressure at that young age, is it really worth it?
K – pop
Wow so scary to see this lol k pop stars already have the most anxiety depression and suicide rate while the record companies control who they date their appearance what they do and basically their whole life
there is nothing wrong starting early, but if they are being forced, that's where the problem begins.
Great advice
Kpop industry is slavery. That's part of the reason why some of them commit suicide.
Am i the only one who is really happy that nct and aespa appeared in here
This is so wrong.
The music tho ðŸâ€ÂÂ¥ 🎵 nct dream fan
OMG THATS MY NCT THERE LOLðŸÂ‰💚😂😂ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂ
K-pop is a very garbage ðŸâ€â€Ã¢â‚¬ËœÃƒÂ¯Ã‚¸ÂÂ
Children being exploited to make money should be illegal.
Interviewing mom is chinese, not korean.
Im korean , i didnt even know we have kpop highschool…….
I’ll just go back to listening to infant infant annihilator ðŸ˜ÂÂ
Where are all the old 'stars'
How about A-Pop for American Pop
The K-Pop trend will die by the time that these kids will grow up
Poor kids
Why does every Korean male have the same exact haircut
This is so cringy
I have lost faith in humanity
K-POP 💕💕💕
It's an investment. To be honest from what I've seen and read 11 million seems like change considering how much revenue kpop brings in for South Korea
I hope this is because the kids want it, and not because of parental pressure.
