NewJean’s ‘cookie’ raised a lot of eyebrows. It was a song presented by teenage girls-mostly under the age of 16-singing lyrics that were partly interpreted as being sexual in nature amongst English-speaking listeners. It kicked off a debate that isn’t entirely new for k-pop, namely, the prevalence of sexualized minors in k-pop. What's driving this trend? How precedented is this? And what should morally conscious fans do about content of this kind?

The Stray Kids billboard profile story included some bad tropes that were likely born out of lazy journalism, but there’s a troubling precedent set when fans dictate editorial. We hear remarks from Todd Inoue who also published a Stray Kids profile story a few years back. In this episode we discuss this issue, along with other K-pop song recommendations and hallyu things to check out. Genius Korea founder, Syed Saquib, joins and offers his recommendations & insights.

It’s time to be honest: K-Pop concerts in America are not always perfect. While there are a few high production value events, most are charging AAA prices - that sell out - for mediocre shows. Is it fair that fans around the world receive a lower quality experience, when K-Pop labels are bringing in more profits than ever?
We had a full house of experts from various parts of the K-Pop scene weigh in on this topic. Chris from @cctvpops shared from his experience working for a major American music label. Todd Inoue @nattotodd covers K-Pop concerts for the SF Chronicle. And T currently works for a K-pop concert production company in the Bay Area.
