Will non-Asian idols debut from the SM, JYP, or YG in the future?
August 25, 2018
I got a big NO for solo idols coming from these companies that are not Asian or of Asian descent. However!!
there does seem to be potential for one or two of these companies having non-Asian idols as part of a group, and whatever group is coming out in the future (1-2 years) is going to have a non-Asian idol who is not going to be well-received. They might add a non-Asian idol to a group already in existence? or a trainee group that is already established? something like that. Either way, it won’t be received well.
