Loved this episode! I'm a Nu'est fan and it's nice to see Aaron on KPC~ Also I love that he flexed his writing credentials lol I remember always wishing Nu'est had more shine because as a fan we didn't get to see them too much like some of the bigger groups. It's unfortunate they had to deal with those extreme fans (both of them). Humans are still humans, I get admiration but you have to draw the line and act like you have some common sense lol
Great video and topic! I remember when Nu’est debuted. It’s great it’s see the members thriving! I would be very interested in seeing a video with the same topic with female idols/ex-idols. I imagine they have very different pressures and experiences training, being and idol, and after completing their contracts.
Thank you David and KPC team for having Aaron and Joel It's definitely refreshing to see them as guests instead of hosts ((but I do miss KCB too please comeback soon 😂😂))
This was a great episode and I loved hearing about Aaron and Joel's post-idol life in entertainment and media after leaving their respective groups. Glad to hear that Aaron still considers himself as an idol and that the NU'EST members keep in touch regularly! I hope they get many opportunities to meet their fans in the future. Would love to read Aaron's writing with his strong writing skills!
I feel so sorry about former idols. No higher education, no money, no options for a decent job Why do people still try to debut. This job is only for 10 years and after that you're nobody and you start everything from the beginning
It may depend on the company as well as the individual. SM seems to emphasize education, especially for the younger trainees. For example, SHINee members all have their masters degrees and continue studying to this day.
My family also went to AZ back in the 1800’s! My great-great grandfather drove a stagecoach in Tombstone. Maybe my ancestors were friends with Joel’s-heck we might even be distantly related! Great conversation, guys! Thank you so much for sharing. It was insightful. I’ll definitely check out the Korean Cowboys podcast! ❤
Thank you David for another wonderful podcast episode of KPC. I am new to K-pop so I didn’t know who your guest were but I enjoyed watching the interactions. 💜🦋🤗
Ah these two are breaths of fresh air. WHAT a lovely "couple". I laughed so hard at the hospital story. It's like a KDRAMA/CDRAMAS where the leads get closer at the hospital 😂. YOUR FUTURE IS BRIGHT
David, i love your show because you educate me on the Korean culture and everything Korean especially the younger generation and I make sure I see all your shows . I am a huge fan of BTS. The powerhouse of talent. I am a 79 year old Chinese Jamaican and reside in the USA since 1962. I live to see the artistic and beautiful side of Asian youth and turn the awful depiction of Asians on its head. I am grateful for that gift. I especially enjoy this show because I learned idols are successful after their group disbanded. Thank you so much.
How is it possible that they have not heard of DKDTV? At one point, wasn't it the most famous UA-cam Kpop podcast in the world? I seriously thought it was. If it's only well-known in the US then other countries outside of Korea are missing out.
Wonderful interview and guests, as always, David ^^ I don't know how easy it would be to do, or if it's within the scope of this channel. But i would be really interested in hearing from foreigners who were able to land positions in science related fields instead of just entertainment. Would be really interesting to hear about the paths they used to get where they are and their thoughts on work culture.
Ooo exciting I wasn't a Nu'est fan but I heard when they were disbanding and knew of them and I think they have one of the best disbandment song I've ever seen or heard and I recommend it to everyone the emotion behind the implications made me feel like I should've been a fan🎉
Aw! I remember seeing Nuest debut. Such a talented group but bad company. Didn't know of Joel but now I do. He is hilarious. Will def check out podcast. Glad u got them on. I def understand of not wanting to go back. My family moved here several years ago and it has changed alot. I told my mom I don't think I want to raise my kids here. She said where would you go! I don't know but everything is crazier now and def not safe to send kids to school.
I am a hard-core L.O.Λ.E, now a fan of KCB too. But I have also been a fan of DKDKTV, and like both David and Danny as well. There on DKDKTV, in the past, I used to comment to invite NU'EST haha ... never thought I would see solo NU'EST member with solo DKDKTV crew member together. It's cool.
Fun and interesting episode, David, thank you. About early age debuting, Taemin became a trainee at 11 (international age) and was walked to school by his members. He debuted in 2008 at 14, when all the SHINee members didn't feel ready to debut. In a recent interview, when asked, Taemin said he'd prefer debuting as an adult (because he missed so much of a normal childhood, friendships, school trips, etc.) but only if he could debut with Onew, Jonghyun, Key, and Minho.
Aaron seems more Korean in is mannerisms whilst Joel’s confidence seems still more American although he feels more Korean. A question I would have liked to ask is what did they have to change to be more accepted into the Korean culture?
Totally enjoyed this episode . Have re-watched it again. Such articulate and interesting young men . Agree 💯 on the part of what they said about U.S. Very interesting discussion. 1 hour + went like couple of minutes. 🏆🥇
Thank you so much David and KPC for having Joel and Aaron on the show. I have never clicked on a yt video so quickly! It was really nice seeing them as interviewees. A side of them, we often do not get to see. I love the way their personality just shines through without restriction. Seeing the banter between them is always hilarious. As a fan of KCP, I enjoyed seeing them and hearing them once again; especially because they are on hideous now.
I'd leave America too, if I could. I'd move to London, but there's no perfect place. These young men were very interesting. I've already subscribed to their channel. Thanks for the interview. Great job David!!! Welcome home, we missed you.
This was such a sincere podcast! Thank you for inviting Aaron and Joel~ Glad that you asked questions fans were always curious about but never got a chance to find out:)
One of my favorite episodes yet. Definitely going to check out Aaron and Joel’s podcast. They had such interesting stories and a good balance of personalities. Great episode David!
So funny when they talk which kpop gen their group are. Nu'est might fall into 2nd gen or 2.5 gen or earliest 3rd gen at most but Joel definitely fall into 3rd gen
Joel has got a very interesting mind set. His energy is very bubbling. Never heard about these bands but it is interesting to hear foreign perspective. And I would definitely agree about North America. It is scary being there. But downside of this episode is that they didn’t talk about personal life, and generally what rules they had while they were trainees. What they were allowed what not but now they have an opportunity to do. But they talked Just some general staff. Maybe for Koreans these parts are obvious. But as a foreigner I was curious.
I loved this podcast so much. I enjoyed learning about these two handsome young men and giving us a slight glimpse at a former K-idol life. They were so down to earth and I was captivated by the conversation right from the beginning. There was not a dull moment. But then there is never a dull moment with any of your podcasts, David. Once again, you did a great job with all your interesting questions and keeping it flowing. Thank you for a fun podcast! 👍🏼
Woah this is my 1st time seeing joel but he is so entertaining and so witty im an instant fan of his, i just gotta go find this cowboy podcast and subscribe. Thats alot david for inviting them, i hope you will invite them and again have more entertaining talks.
The video was really interesting as always, thanks David! And the two boys were super funny and cool! It was really fun listening to them. Unfortunately, I didn't know who they were at first and both of them surprised me so positively! I will definitely listen to their podcast and follow them both in the future. Thanks for the chat guys!
That's just common sense to be careful with your life. You never know what opportunities may come your way but something stupid you did in the past may prevent that. These guys are smart.
I’m late watching but so glad this show popped up. I am a Nu’est fan & have to say Aron’s voice is so very beautiful on the song And I. While I love all of the voices & they are dreamy Aron’s is so good. Living in the states our Country is not what it was. Like Aron & Joel stated, the United States is not what it used to be.
A question I have never heard asked is, "Do you ever resent the lack of opportunities in America for asian americans? Or having to move to Korea to pursue your entertainment career?"
I prefer if each company (shouldnt even be that many companies) debut 1 group or artist every 4-5 years. they only get to focus on 1 artist for 4-5 years before getting another. One should be established before debuting another. Also don't be desperate and just sign a paper! Probably would sign better contracts if most weren't children.
Love this episode! I’m definitely gonna tune in to the Korean Cowboys podcast. And to David, I’ve been a fan of yours since DKDKTV back in 2018! Great stuff you got here on this channel ❤
So, David, serious question, if someone recognizes you on the street would you rather not be approached? And I mean like a friendly “hey, I enjoy your podcast”, not anything creepy.

As an American I understand not wanting to live here. I think it'll take years and years to get out of the current chaos.
It’s getting crazy over here for sure :P
💯 only the Mexicans and Koreans have not yet gone woke!
@@CIC8282 define woke
Great video and topic! I remember when Nu’est debuted. It’s great it’s see the members thriving!
I would be very interested in seeing a video with the same topic with female idols/ex-idols. I imagine they have very different pressures and experiences training, being and idol, and after completing their contracts.
Hopefully female ep. soon!
Was thinking the same, a female episode would be great to see a different part of the spectrum! 🙏
Still so sad about what happened to NUEST. They were truly special one of a kind guys.
Thank you David and KPC team for having Aaron and Joel
It's definitely refreshing to see them as guests instead of hosts
((but I do miss KCB too please comeback soon 😂😂))
Next season when?!
This was a great episode and I loved hearing about Aaron and Joel's post-idol life in entertainment and media after leaving their respective groups. Glad to hear that Aaron still considers himself as an idol and that the NU'EST members keep in touch regularly! I hope they get many opportunities to meet their fans in the future. Would love to read Aaron's writing with his strong writing skills!
I was waiting for the topic of idol dating (restrictions) and post-idol dating! Dating is usually a topic at KPC! Maybe next time... Great episode!
Yeah the tea 😂 some more crazy sasaeng stories 😂
Eyyyy was waiting for this!! My Nuest BTL DKDKTV breadcrumbs 😭❤👏
Not gonna lie was sooo different watching Aaron and Joel being interviewed lol
The art of collabs!
I feel so sorry about former idols. No higher education, no money, no options for a decent job Why do people still try to debut. This job is only for 10 years and after that you're nobody and you start everything from the beginning
Both these ex-Idols have degrees. It's a choice. Each member of BTS has either a Bachelor's or Master's degree while they are Idols.
It may depend on the company as well as the individual. SM seems to emphasize education, especially for the younger trainees. For example, SHINee members all have their masters degrees and continue studying to this day.
My family also went to AZ back in the 1800’s! My great-great grandfather drove a stagecoach in Tombstone. Maybe my ancestors were friends with Joel’s-heck we might even be distantly related! Great conversation, guys! Thank you so much for sharing. It was insightful. I’ll definitely check out the Korean Cowboys podcast! ❤
Wow, have you been to Tombstone? That's some history!
Thank you David for another wonderful podcast episode of KPC. I am new to K-pop so I didn’t know who your guest were but I enjoyed watching the interactions. 💜🦋🤗
David’s hair looking fly. Also can’t wait for another episode!
Edit: Plus, thumbed up this episode
👍👍👍🙏
2.5 gen. When NU'EST was debuted, it was a lot of fun.
Ah these two are breaths of fresh air. WHAT a lovely "couple". I laughed so hard at the hospital story. It's like a KDRAMA/CDRAMAS where the leads get closer at the hospital 😂. YOUR FUTURE IS BRIGHT
OMG, This is my first time watching Joel & I love him already!❣️
David, i love your show because you educate me on the Korean culture and everything Korean especially the younger generation and I make sure I see all your shows . I am a huge fan of BTS.

Saw Joel for the first time and absolutely loved his energy.. 😍
One of the best most entertaining episode ! Thanks David for hosting and the guys for sharing your experience. So cool! Bravo
Thank you for enjoying!!

Thats gonna be a hard one but i’ll be on the lookout!
@koreanpizzaclub Thank you so much! Hopefully, you'll be able to find some volunteers :)
David comparing his life experience to that of kpop idols throughout the interview 😂
Definitely, one of your best shows!
Ooo exciting I wasn't a Nu'est fan but I heard when they were disbanding and knew of them and I think they have one of the best disbandment song I've ever seen or heard and I recommend it to everyone the emotion behind the implications made me feel like I should've been a fan🎉
This was such a fun episode. The guest were lively, will definitely check out their podcast now...
I really enjoyed watching this, thank you
David, you're a good host!!
Korean Pizza Club 🇰🇷🍕🎙 & Korean Cowboys Podcast 🇰🇷🤠🎙 united 😄💯🤟
I didn't know either of these guys but I really enjoyed finding out about them and their experiences as former non-native Korean idols.
Aw! I remember seeing Nuest debut. Such a talented group but bad company. Didn't know of Joel but now I do. He is hilarious. Will def check out podcast. Glad u got them on. I def understand of not wanting to go back. My family moved here several years ago and it has changed alot. I told my mom I don't think I want to raise my kids here. She said where would you go! I don't know but everything is crazier now and def not safe to send kids to school.
A great episode! Thank you for having our Korean Cowboys as guest😍
Waiting for Korean Cowboys season 4 ~ 😂 Thanks for inviting Aaron & Joel !! It’s such a fun episode knowing more about them !!
I am a hard-core L.O.Λ.E, now a fan of KCB too. But I have also been a fan of DKDKTV, and like both David and Danny as well. There on DKDKTV, in the past, I used to comment to invite NU'EST haha ... never thought I would see solo NU'EST member with solo DKDKTV crew member together. It's cool.
What a great podcast this was! ❤
I'm glad I'm not famous 😅
They're right about America too.
Now I have another podcast to watch while KCB are on hiatus.. 😊
What a great episode. Enjoyed hearing about their lives. They both sound like fun, amazing, talented young men. Thanks KPC
Next will have David as a guest for KCB? Love the collaboration~~~ Thanks!!!! Podcasts hwaiting!!!!
great conversation!
Fun and interesting episode, David, thank you. About early age debuting, Taemin became a trainee at 11 (international age) and was walked to school by his members.

KOREAN COWBOYS are sooo ENTERTAINING!🤩🤠.this could be the start of a great collaboration🫶🏼🎤
Great episode!
Aaron seems more Korean in is mannerisms whilst Joel’s confidence seems still more American although he feels more Korean. A question I would have liked to ask is what did they have to change to be more accepted into the Korean culture?
I think because Aaron's parents are both Koreans though he was born in USA whereas Joel's father is real American.
I love nu'est's music
Oh yeah!! My KCB are here again!! 👏😍👏🐶🍓♥
Didnt expect the variety show that Joel was on would be squid game
Dive studios owe a lot to their editor with those hilarious shorts. Just my two cents
this panel is a cuteness overload
Totally enjoyed this episode . Have re-watched it again. Such articulate and interesting young men . Agree 💯 on the part of what they said about U.S. Very interesting discussion. 1 hour + went like couple of minutes. 🏆🥇
Loved it ❤

I love this kind of content
But I also miss DK News!
Haha so funny watching the squid game challenge on Netflix and busting my brain to remember how I know Joel
How can songs like 'I love my body ' and being highest rated ratio of country for plastic surgery can go together.
These songs and love yoyrself themes are trying to change the culture but it will take time. Tourism plastic surgery is big income for Korea.
I'd leave America too, if I could. I'd move to London, but there's no perfect place. These young men were very interesting. I've already subscribed to their channel. Thanks for the interview. Great job David!!! Welcome home, we missed you.
That's interesting. I recently spoke to a Londoner who left GB bc of the issues they are experiencing
Yeah, I’m from London 😂it’s not great😅
아론아ㅠㅠ 영어는 어떻게든 해볼게ㅠㅠ 너무 좋다ㅠㅠ
Joel is very good looking and has a nice personality, i think he'd be succesful even now if he kept doing work in the entertainment industry
This was such a sincere podcast! Thank you for inviting Aaron and Joel~ Glad that you asked questions fans were always curious about but never got a chance to find out:)
Wow, time flies... I remember a friend recommended me Face by Nu'est, as a new song lol.
One of my favorite episodes yet. Definitely going to check out Aaron and Joel’s podcast. They had such interesting stories and a good balance of personalities. Great episode David!
So funny when they talk which kpop gen their group are.
Nu'est might fall into 2nd gen or 2.5 gen or earliest 3rd gen at most but Joel definitely fall into 3rd gen
좋은 말씀 감사합니다 영어공부해올게요
David please speed up your editing.. 😫🙏🏻🙏🏻 You kept all of us in a long never-ending drought.
Hahaha I’m sure he’s trying his best
Haha forgive me i was on a biz trip in the States 😭
Joel has a perfect voice for broadcasting.
Thank you so much. I love Aaron so much and respect him and Joel alot.
Joel has got a very interesting mind set. His energy is very bubbling. Never heard about these bands but it is interesting to hear foreign perspective. And I would definitely agree about North America. It is scary being there.

What they were allowed what not but now they have an opportunity to do. But they talked Just some general staff. Maybe for Koreans these parts are obvious. But as a foreigner I was curious.
They talk about personal life and trainee life on their podcast Korean Cowboys tho.
I loved this podcast so much. I enjoyed learning about these two handsome young men and giving us a slight glimpse at a former K-idol life. They were so down to earth and I was captivated by the conversation right from the beginning. There was not a dull moment. But then there is never a dull moment with any of your podcasts, David.

wow I just started getting into Nu'est. I know I'm hella late.😄
Am watching from Malaysia. Just came on .
🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
That's just common sense to be careful with your life. You never know what opportunities may come your way but something stupid you did in the past may prevent that. These guys are smart.
유교보이들이야 정말😂여권만 미국인임 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I honestly don't know them. But I enjoyed watching and listening to their idol and post idol stories.
I’m late watching but so glad this show popped up. I am a Nu’est fan & have to say Aron’s voice is so very beautiful on the song And I. While I love all of the voices & they are dreamy Aron’s is so good. Living in the states our Country is not what it was. Like Aron & Joel stated, the United States is not what it used to be.
So
... hows Danny? Do you see him often? 😂😂😂
Realmente me gustó, lo relajados que estaban los chicos. Gracias por esto. Extrañaba el Yeehaw 🤭
A question I have never heard asked is, "Do you ever resent the lack of opportunities in America for asian americans? Or having to move to Korea to pursue your entertainment career?"
Aaron❤
Joel should do stand-up. He is funny!
I prefer if each company (shouldnt even be that many companies) debut 1 group or artist every 4-5 years. they only get to focus on 1 artist for 4-5 years before getting another. One should be established before debuting another.
Also don't be desperate and just sign a paper! Probably would sign better contracts if most weren't children.
Sounds ideal but kpop x capitalism = the mess that is kpop today.
Yeayy Aaron ❤️😍
I miss Korean Cowboys Podcast 🤠❤
Very refreshing and interesting episode, thank you for the great conversation and I will definitely be checking out the cowboys podcast! 😊
Ah... I miss NU'EST so much and I am definitely happy for Aron and his personal journey!
Would they do a Begin Again performance?
This was a fun episode! Aaron and Joel such a cool duo! ☺️
Love this episode! I’m definitely gonna tune in to the Korean Cowboys podcast. And to David, I’ve been a fan of yours since DKDKTV back in 2018! Great stuff you got here on this channel ❤
this was a cool collab. i need to check these cowboys out.
wait...the dkdktv guys "broke up"???
Great interview. Good luck to you all ❤
25:23 I'm not an ex-Kpop star but I do this too. I'm just paranoid though 😂
Aaron and Joel such an elegant/entertaining/smart….. Joel has my heart! Officially their fan!
So, David, serious question, if someone recognizes you on the street would you rather not be approached? And I mean like a friendly “hey, I enjoy your podcast”, not anything creepy.
1h passou voando!! Amei esse episódio, já conhecia o Aaron e adorei conhecer o Joel!! Muito sucesso para vocês!!!
