The list of bands who haven’t been admitted reads like some kind of rock & roll hall of fame.

C’mon son. This music has 0% chance of succeeding outside of Asia. I like watching the sexy girls and some of the hooks are catchy, but K-pop will never be a big deal in the west. Why?

Plagiarism
Sexual abuse of trainees
Racism
Concepts of “cute” and “sexy” which won’t play well in the west
A super-incestuous system of linked endorsements and media coverage which doesn’t exist in the west
etc
