You sounded veryprofessional explaining this topic. i feel like im not watching an ex trainee experience but from a higher ups from entertainment company. 😅
Two decades of experience, as a K-pop trainee (soloist and group member), and now as a lyricist and vocalist. Companies actually respect her enough, that they get her in to check out current trainees. What she has to say is worth listening to, for sure.
It would be really interesting to hear about the mental health trainees have and the weight loss companies force on trainees. I'll look forward to these
your candidness, as i seem to be expecting now, is refreshing. your honesty and bluntness are treasures, haha. also, kudos to your work ethic, massive respect. cheers!
How does one keep their voice/body healthy training that much? Singing for more than four hours seems like it could be harmful and straining on the voice especially with the extra stress on your body of losing weight.
@@GinaEverywhere please dooo.. It's one of the reasons why i have high respects for trainees and korean idols who have undergo trainings for so many years.. debut or not.. they all deserve recognition for it.. i used to do part-time jobs in theater and in concerts and all.. as sounds and light technical staff.. i was there for almost every rehearsals and performance.. but some of them would end up losing their voices sometimes at some point.. after rehearsals.. so just really dont give a care.. but some is a little bit too much.. and a bit of demanding... when it comes to taking good care of their throats.. I understand why tho'.. its just that sometimes i feel like they were just pretending..
This was very insightful honestly, thank you. I'm a dancer and an athlete, I was comparing what you said about kpop trainee to the training regime I have as a student athlete wrestler whose coaches train us on a borderline olympic level, which some of our teammates from prior years transferred over from other colleges (I'm equating colleges as different kpop companies) and they said the training program of this college we are attending is best managed, where athletes won't be mistreated (improper weight cut/management methods, coaches abusing athletes, favoritism, bullying, lack of athletic trainer care, lack of proper dietetic/meal plan advice, rule-bending/cheating at competitions, etc) while having the most rigorous training compared to other schools. Your video was definitely very informative, thank you.
Wow Gina! I'm incredibly impressed with your authenticity! It's super refreshing. And of course your knowledge about the industry is impeccable (as expected!). Please keep up the awesome content!
just the way u talk makes me feel like you're such a good natured person, I genuinely enjoy listening to you talk! have u ever thought about joining a podcast series like Dive podcast? you have so many interesting stories to share, you might find a good audience that way (but us, your UA-cam fans are always here for u!! )
Today is Girls Generation 14th debut Anniversary and I just wanna go back and listen to these little story about predebut Jess. 19?18? yrs old Sica listening to ITNW for a year in the bus🙂❤️😭... Wow life
Gina, you really are something else. Thanks for this video; it has to be the most candid and frank I've seen. I'm not a trainee nor am I interested im singing; I am, however, interested in thekpop world. It seems so perfect from the outside. Thank you for taking the time to do this; your upcoming topics soind sooo interesting. I would be interested in hearing about permanent body image issues (when you do the video about weight) amongst female idols. Do female idols really eat whatever they want and maitain their thin weight?
The training process = Very interesting, as you say, the big companies are concerned about the presentation of the group or the solo singer, they already know what needs to show that individual in their best, to be the best they can be, which for them equates to financial income for them and that person or group. So here you are a decade after you chose to leave and providing insight to the many girls and guys still in the business and those wanting to get into the business, yet you stand firm in your conviction to be the singer you want to be rather than the one they want you to be, which I see as a very courageous stand on your part, accolades to you on many levels.
Just wanna say that I love your eloquence! All of your experiences in the past have made you not just tougher but also more empathetic with the knowledge and wisdom you've gained. I think you've provided essential paradigm shifts to your viewers/listeners with regards to the entertainment industry, in general. Thank you so much for sharing!
i really enjoy your videos since you are really honest and you only speak about things you know for sure even though i'm not really interested in auditioning or anything after hearing about your experience i can understand how the industry works better and a lot of things make more sense
One thing I'm really curious about, I'm not sure if you could answer though, is how much control a company has over its artists. I've read Jessica's book and I'm not sure if that aspect is dramatized or not. Making dating scandals, kicking trainees out if they refuse to get double eyelid surgery, creating press leaks on purpose etc...
I love your brutal honesty about the auditions! You're not afraid to say it how it is, and it is true, at the end of the day it really comes down to whether or not the judge likes you. The opinions of other people might help you feel more validated, but confidence comes from within. A lot of people are drawn in by the glamour that they see on the screen, but nothing is pure in the world when money is involved. I would love to see a video on lessons that unexpectedly that have helped you in life(outside the realm of the entertainment world).
Love how you talk! Could you talk about foreigners in the industry? (Right now) and if age REALLY matters or not🤔👀 (I’ve just discovered the industry and auditions, but I’m 19 and I’m from Peru... would love to hear about it from you!)
Honestly, training sounds awesome😥🤩 I would love to sing 7 hours a day. Rather than my parents telling me to be quiet while singing. I have a really powerful voice, have taken private vocal lessons, and am learning to dance right now. I can also play the guitar. So training sounds awesome. I want to learn how to produce my own lyrics, I also want to learn how to rap. I'm actually very fit and have a lot of stamina. So yeah. Training sounds really awesome and enjoyable. Even if I dont debut, I would want to just train for the longest time.
Suggested what you could call the KPOP videos as series = KPOP Industry in all facets and colors, the dark as well as the light moments of my personal experience. Anyways thank you so much for this Amazing Video and I understand very well that you cannot / do not want to help people who take part in auditions on their own, because sometimes it is also about luck, whether the opposite person likes you or not. Please stay Healthy and Happy. Love you. ❤
I really enjoy your insights and your self assured non-dramatic presentation. You have a real talent for it. I realize it is a petty criticism because you are a self assured individual who has chosen this format but why do you play with your hair? It detracts from your confident presentation. I discovered you on a video with your friend and was so pleased you didn’t constantly stroke your hair and adjust it all the time as she was doing. Your hair that day was partially pulled back in a tie. Your just looked so breezy and fresh and comfortably self assured. I was taught to keep ones hands out of their hair when speaking with someone. I see the validity of that when I watch you and many of the women with long hair hair on videos.
I know! I have so much hair I usually tie it in some form... and through recent videos I realize I can't keep it from falling front and covering my face if I let it loose :( I probably will tie it all the time from now on😅 thank you for your two cents :D
Loved this video and also love the way you speak English! Can't wait for the upcoming videos and thanks for talking about these topics and sharing your experiences with us
I don't know the difference between a trainee from a big company and a trainee from a small company, but you have a sophisticated and charismatic aura. I can imagine you in a big company.
You could be exhaling too much (this is a very common issue) compared to how much you breathe in, which causes the loss of control with your notes. Breathing exercises even without melody helps! Try breathing in and out for 5 10 20 seconds respectively so you manage to inhale and exhale at the same speed :)
How did you get into the industry? Side note you still seem young and you said you met Rain right before his debut so you must’ve been even younger when you started wow
Can you do a break down of the music shows on how much is playback vocals? I hear music core is like 30% playback volume levels vs live while other shows are like 60% playback 40% live
Thank you for doing this. Some might find it difficult to relive experiences and idk if that's your case but I wish I could have an ounce of your resilience. I am not someone who wants to dive into the creative world, just a struggling uni student trying to find motivation 😂 and I found it. Thank you 🌈 Btw you are so pretty :')
Why does SM always look for singers firsts? They always have good vocalists... also I think them creating NCT moved them up another tier...they really didn’t have a hip hop group until then.
@@mylovechoerry2233 that's completely false. dancing has extreme technicalities in it and it would be obvious if one is skilled or not to people who actually dance (example: plenty of kpop idols are prone to overdancing)
I feel like what is the hardest part for the training process is time management and the people you're training with. I mean if you're passionate enough to join a company then you'll surely enjoy the classes but imagine having to train with people who has attitude problems and also you have to have time for your school too
Also it seems like some groups don’t improve vocally over the years while others improve a lot. Is it because of busy schedules that don’t allow improvement?
Gina , First of all thank you for this informative video it really helped. Secondly, Can someone from a third world country like Turkey , Saudi Arabia or India Become a KPOP Idol?
Ur honesty and the way u talk... Love listening to u talk😍 I dont want to become a kpop idol, but i wanted to be a trainee for few months to improve my skills and improve as an individual too. Is that possible at all? Also im more interested in working in the industry in the management or marketing field, please make a video about it, it would be really helpful. Thank you :))
May I know why you became a *ex* trainee like why didn't you get selected?? Sorry,if I made u feel sad or anything.....but why I am asking this is so,I know what is the main reason trainee don't get selected, what skills they look for, what is the main point that made they think she/he won't be a Idol 🙂🙂
Wow it was very interesting and informative! It seems like the training (classes) were not very stressful (correct me if I'm wrong) because hearing other tell those stories it sounds like they were afraid of their teachers or something like that.. idk... Can you tell more about the daily life of a trainee?
did you have any experience with singing or dancing when you got into the industry? like for example, you’re good at singing, but not good at dancing, would that be a problem or would they train you?
and were there any foreign trainees? foreign in the sense that they’re asian, (or even non Asian) but not east or southeast Asian? (Still Asian) do you think these companies accept foreign trainees?
Love your videos firstly !! :) Since you said you were going to make a video on weight management, I was curious about something. I'd love it if you could talk about this in your upcoming video. Do companies focus on weight per se or looks? What I mean is different people weighing the same could look widely different. So is it enough to look lean and skinny or does the number on the scale matter as well? Thank you in advance if you choose to answer this :)
So is there still stigma about seeking psychiatric help within companies? Will companies drop you? Do you think things have changed drastically??? I’m not so much into kpop but it’s nice hearing your perspective! I love how frank and informative you are! I keep hearing about “kpop experts” giving advice about auditions and sometimes it just irks me.
A few years ago, I heard in Korea that if you tell them you have depression or anything like that, they will not hire you, even for a simple job at coffee shop. It's so crazy.
thank you, and I'll get to your question in my upcoming video about kpop trainees & artists' mental health. but to give you a quick answer I do think it has been changing for the better :)
Hello ~ I am very interested in JYP, especially what he places most important in creating a girl group among trainees. Park Jin-young in an interview with overseas media (after Wonder Girls' success) JYP no longer makes artist singers. JYP will make a "star". He said. And he said that the important meaning of "star" is each character they have. I think JYP is an announcement that it will thoroughly focus on commercial music. Question JYP company makes your debut, do you think skill is important?
You know Jessica? Hmm. I have always worked under the assumption that SNSD members were all catty and bratty except Sunny and Jessica. True? (I know you can’t comment, but I wanted to be funny and ask).
Never saw any other people asking this so here I am hahahaha Do you need to pay for the training? If yes, (I suppose it varies from company to company) can you give us an estimated amount? And what are the terms? Like I've read somewhere that there are companies that will let you train first THEN you'll have to pay for everything (the total amount that the company spent on you while training) when you debut. How true is this? If this is true and you ended up not debuting, will you have to pay for it no matter what? OMG.
Gina, I think your maturity, candidness, talents, and knowledge of the industry will make you the best teacher for the upcoming generation.
Thank you!
YES!
You sounded veryprofessional explaining this topic. i feel like im not watching an ex trainee experience but from a higher ups from entertainment company. 😅
Haha thank you 😅
I have no interest in being a kpop star. but i love hearing you talk about it. you're very insightful, a great speaker and personable.
Thank you so much!
Me too ✨
why does getting accepted as a kpop trainee lowkey sound like us college admissions tho
Its like college for future celebrities, and u graduate when u debut lol
@@Ai-pj1co Seriously, it’s basically a college education, but I do think it’s only in JYPE.
gina is that real insider.. hahahahha.. she's been to jype before second generation took off.. and other companies.. before she left the industry...
She has befriended with many big names for years...
Two decades of experience, as a K-pop trainee (soloist and group member), and now as a lyricist and vocalist.
Companies actually respect her enough, that they get her in to check out current trainees.
What she has to say is worth listening to, for sure.
It would be really interesting to hear about the mental health trainees have and the weight loss companies force on trainees. I'll look forward to these
Thank you! Coming soon :)
"If you have to ask that question you're not fit for the industry" - insightful.
your candidness, as i seem to be expecting now, is refreshing. your honesty and bluntness are treasures, haha. also, kudos to your work ethic, massive respect. cheers!
Thank you😀
there's no fixed rule, and I am not queen of the universe, even though I'd be really good at it....
LOL

How does one keep their voice/body healthy training that much? Singing for more than four hours seems like it could be harmful and straining on the voice especially with the extra stress on your body of losing weight.

"Im really hard to please, i'll probably make you cry. So *please* dont ask my opinion" Is that why you're so skilled? is that your secret??
No- it has nothing to do with skills, it's just one of the reasons why I don't want to judge others and I was delivering half jokingly.
@@GinaEverywhere its ok I was only partly joking as well
I'd vote for you as Queen of the Universe! Of course, I'm in the US, so the bar is pretty low as far as good leadership is concerned.
This was very insightful honestly, thank you.

Can you do a break down of the music shows on how much is playback vocals? I hear music core is like 30% playback volume levels vs live while other shows are like 60% playback 40% live
It differs by artist as well so can't really say
Thank you for doing this. Some might find it difficult to relive experiences and idk if that's your case but I wish I could have an ounce of your resilience.
I am not someone who wants to dive into the creative world, just a struggling uni student trying to find motivation 😂 and I found it.

Thank you so much for watching ♡
How do you get better at singing? I’m not interested in becoming an idol or anything, but I sing for fun and I was wondering if you had any tips?
I'm planning on making a video on how I practice😀
Awesome... I’ll look forward to it!
Training from a good voice coach
I like you talking, will definitely watch the next vdo 😍
Why does SM always look for singers firsts? They always have good vocalists... also I think them creating NCT moved them up another tier...they really didn’t have a hip hop group until then.
Maybe because becoming a great singer is more difficulte and take more times and depend on lot more on natural abilities than being a good dancer
@@mylovechoerry2233 that's completely false. dancing has extreme technicalities in it and it would be obvious if one is skilled or not to people who actually dance (example: plenty of kpop idols are prone to overdancing)
This was soo intresting, please make vedio about stressful aspects of your training
Please give more vocal tips . If you can i mean you have given warmup tip and what should we do after warmup
Omg i can't believe you reply me yeahh....
Please talk about skin care and skin whitening, cosmetic surgery for body too! Thank you 🥰🥰
What are some of the "good habits" you develop as a big company trainee?
I really love your videos, you talk so good. And Im getting to know things I've been curious
Hi, do you have any advice on how to memorize a choreography?
I feel like what is the hardest part for the training process is time management and the people you're training with. I mean if you're passionate enough to join a company then you'll surely enjoy the classes but imagine having to train with people who has attitude problems and also you have to have time for your school too
Looking forward to those two videos ❤️
thank you for sharing!!!! very fascinating .you went through a lot!!!!
Hi Gina, who does your hair? I love the brown color and was wondering if you did it yourself of went to a salon? it's always nicely touched up
Bao giờ chị ra video nói thêm về nghề lyricist của chị ở Speeker nhé? Em hứng thú làm quản lý âm nhạc. Cảm ơn chị.
I actually am planning a video on my lyricist career so please hold on! :D
Also it seems like some groups don’t improve vocally over the years while others improve a lot. Is it because of busy schedules that don’t allow improvement?
Could be, or lack of will/practice/talent
Love your sweater..
Your videos are really interesting~
love your content and your energy!! can´t wait for new vids
🙂🙂🙂
Gina really reminds me of Kahi.
thanks for the video you're very clear :)
Thank you for watching!
I love that duo group of Isaak and Jiyeon from SM in 2002...what happened to Jiyeon?
She goes by the name of Lina and is a musical actress.
I just love all your videos!!!!😍
Uhh a sudden question after three years im new by the way -why did you quit being a kpop idol
Gina , First of all thank you for this informative video it really helped. Secondly, Can someone from a third world country like Turkey , Saudi Arabia or India Become a KPOP Idol?
Ur honesty and the way u talk...
Love listening to u talk😍
I dont want to become a kpop idol, but i wanted to be a trainee for few months to improve my skills and improve as an individual too. Is that possible at all?
Also im more interested in working in the industry in the management or marketing field, please make a video about it, it would be really helpful. Thank you :))
May I know why you became a *ex* trainee like why didn't you get selected??
Sorry,if I made u feel sad or anything.....but why I am asking this is so,I know what is the main reason trainee don't get selected, what skills they look for, what is the main point that made they think she/he won't be a Idol
🙂🙂
how do trainees deal with stretchmarks?
Wow it was very interesting and informative! It seems like the training (classes) were not very stressful (correct me if I'm wrong) because hearing other tell those stories it sounds like they were afraid of their teachers or something like that.. idk... Can you tell more about the daily life of a trainee?
Will answer that in future video!
Thanks for the insight... new subscriber..
Thank you and hello🤗
Thanks for this video
did you have any experience with singing or dancing when you got into the industry?
like for example, you’re good at singing, but not good at dancing, would that be a problem or would they train you?
Is it 7 yr contact after your trainee period ends and debut starts? Then 2 yr renewal after?
and were there any foreign trainees? foreign in the sense that they’re asian, (or even non Asian) but not east or southeast Asian? (Still Asian)
do you think these companies accept foreign trainees?
Do you prefer songwriting for hip hop or just cute pop songs?
연습생들에게 숙소와 생활비는 제공해 주는지 궁금합니다.

Do trainees in jyp need to pay debt ?
Do all girl groups have to know how to dance in heels? How much are girls trained in dancing with heels
You can sit there and say the nicest things about JYP and how much he cares, but as an aghase i will hate him for the rest of my life, even after
So is there still stigma about seeking psychiatric help within companies? Will companies drop you? Do you think things have changed drastically???

Don't all trainees live in the same building for whole day means all the time ?
What is the difference between a songwriter and a lyricist?
songwriting can include composing melody and the beat of a song as well as lyrics; lyricists focus on lyrics
Answered for me perfectly! Thank you
thank you !
If you wanted to learn acting, will your company let you do that?
연습생들끼리 회사가 달라도 실력있는 사람 어떻게 알게되는지 궁금해요!

Hello ~
I am very interested in JYP, especially what he places most important in creating a girl group among trainees.
Park Jin-young in an interview with overseas media (after Wonder Girls' success)
JYP no longer makes artist singers.
JYP will make a "star". He said.
And he said that the important meaning of "star" is each character they have.
I think JYP is an announcement that it will thoroughly focus on commercial music.
Question
JYP company makes your debut, do you think skill is important?
Is the colour of the skin is coming first than the talent in kpop industry?? ❤️
Does he take fees for classes?
You know Jessica? Hmm. I have always worked under the assumption that SNSD members were all catty and bratty except Sunny and Jessica. True? (I know you can’t comment, but I wanted to be funny and ask).
Never saw any other people asking this so here I am hahahaha
Do you need to pay for the training? If yes, (I suppose it varies from company to company) can you give us an estimated amount? And what are the terms? Like I've read somewhere that there are companies that will let you train first THEN you'll have to pay for everything (the total amount that the company spent on you while training) when you debut. How true is this? If this is true and you ended up not debuting, will you have to pay for it no matter what? OMG.
What you asked is in my video that talks about my 12+ years as a trainee :)
