00:00:00
does ygsept global trainees if i were to
00:00:03
rank the categories in terms of the most
00:00:05
favorable category to the least
00:00:07
favorable category it would have to be
00:00:09
is yg truly a bad company and if so why
00:00:13
do they keep making these mistakes that
00:00:15
continue within generations in this
00:00:17
video i'm going to be answering all of
00:00:19
your questions about yg things you
00:00:21
didn't know but firstly make sure to
00:00:23
watch this shorts video on yg that
00:00:25
explains all of their sub labels and
00:00:28
everything that goes within yg basically
00:00:30
getting straight into it first question
00:00:32
do they recruit new trainees often so as
00:00:35
we all know yg creates less groups
00:00:37
because they don't really prioritize
00:00:39
quantity but they do prioritize quality
00:00:41
when it comes to d's new debuts so as
00:00:44
you'll be able to see yg is quite small
00:00:46
when it comes to how many idols they
00:00:48
have within the entertainment so yes
00:00:51
because they are debuting less groups
00:00:53
and it's not that sudden i guess and
00:00:56
even within this they like to have more
00:00:58
so less idols within their group so like
00:01:00
black pink i don't know too many one big
00:01:02
bang i mean of course treasure is kind
00:01:04
of um an outlier because they did come
00:01:06
from a survival show they can't make a
00:01:08
four-membered group out of a survival
00:01:10
show so generally yes they do recruit
00:01:13
less trainee because they don't need
00:01:14
that many trainees we're kind of getting
00:01:16
into the juicy stuff now so the question
00:01:18
is does yg prefer boy groups over girl
00:01:20
groups so this is definitely a
00:01:22
subjective point of view but i do feel
00:01:25
that yg does prefer boy groups over girl
00:01:27
groups if you just see the rate of how
00:01:29
many girl groups are produced even
00:01:30
within a decade you'll be able to see
00:01:32
that there's a lot less girl groups than
00:01:35
boy groups and even within these groups
00:01:37
they don't have as many comebacks like
00:01:39
girl groups when compared to boy groups
00:01:41
they get more promotions and they
00:01:43
definitely get more word out there
00:01:44
rather than girl groups kind of trying
00:01:46
to do their own individual activities
00:01:48
and the company not really caring about
00:01:51
the girl group as a whole now we're
00:01:53
getting into the core of the video and
00:01:54
what you guys might not really know
00:01:56
about yg so this question is an umbrella
00:01:59
question to many different questions but
00:02:01
that is why do so many of their projects
00:02:04
fail so for some context yg makes a lot
00:02:06
of different promises that they never
00:02:09
actually fulfill to the public they make
00:02:11
a lot of statements saying oh we're
00:02:12
gonna do this and it actually never
00:02:14
happens so here are some examples of
00:02:16
that that showcases this kind of
00:02:18
behavior from yg so firstly would be 281
00:02:21
when 21 was kind of coming to a close
00:02:24
why'd you announce that they kind of
00:02:25
gave up on 21 quite frankly because they
00:02:27
couldn't control one of the members i
00:02:30
mean what did you guys expect
00:02:32
and then the second one involves
00:02:33
treasure now this one isn't that big of
00:02:35
a deal because it's not that serious
00:02:37
compared to the other ones but they
00:02:39
promised why do you promise that
00:02:41
treasures tarari that's a b-side would
00:02:43
also have its separate promotion
00:02:45
schedules and they would also promote
00:02:46
that song because it was trending on
00:02:48
tick tock and they promised a promise
00:02:51
the fans that that would happen however
00:02:53
it randomly got cancelled without any
00:02:55
explanation and then the third one is
00:02:57
black pink i'm sure we all know about
00:02:58
this but their comeback keeps getting
00:03:00
delayed and delayed and the time frame
00:03:03
that's between these comebacks is
00:03:04
actually crazy long and it's seeming
00:03:07
that they're more so like an individual
00:03:09
model or an actress rather than idols
00:03:11
themselves and a group and then the
00:03:13
fourth example i'm sure some of you guys
00:03:15
do know this is future to anyone so
00:03:17
future 21 was a group that was supposed
00:03:19
to debut back in 2016 kind of in
00:03:22
replacement with red or red velvet i
00:03:24
almost say that black pink and the
00:03:25
concept a lot of people argue that it
00:03:27
was quite weird because frankly they
00:03:29
were trying to replace to anyone with
00:03:31
these new girls which isn't fair to
00:03:34
either to anyone or these girls because
00:03:36
21 is literally just being replaced with
00:03:38
new generation and these girls have
00:03:41
really they want to have their own
00:03:43
unique identity rather than being oh
00:03:45
this is the future cl like you know
00:03:47
actually you might know these girls from
00:03:49
future 21 so it included billy's boonsla
00:03:51
from his nan soion and then the soloist
00:03:54
juha and then the soloist she was also
00:03:57
in produce 48 but anyway their comeback
00:03:59
or their debut sorry kept getting
00:04:01
delayed and delayed to the point where
00:04:03
basically all of the girls left yg and
00:04:05
their debut was cancelled now this is
00:04:07
just an assumption that the girls left
00:04:09
because it kept getting delayed it could
00:04:10
be from different reasons such as the
00:04:12
lack of management mistreatment and
00:04:14
things like that and the fifth example
00:04:17
is mix nine a lot of you guys might know
00:04:19
this show for luna or maybe routine from
00:04:22
itsy but this group the debut final
00:04:25
lineup was a boy group but it got
00:04:27
cancelled because yg had a disagreement
00:04:29
with the contract in terms of all of the
00:04:32
dudes dudes the all of the dudes
00:04:34
contracts with the other companies like
00:04:36
the original companies that they
00:04:37
belonged with which really it shouldn't
00:04:39
be that big of a problem because
00:04:41
previously they also had produce 101 not
00:04:43
yg but like another
00:04:45
obviously another group had produced 101
00:04:47
and their contracts worked out just fine
00:04:49
although they did have a short period of
00:04:51
time of promoting they still worked out
00:04:53
their contract so it's not something
00:04:55
impossible to ask however wide you
00:04:56
couldn't handle that and they did cancel
00:04:58
the final debut of the group and the
00:05:00
story goes on and on and on if i were to
00:05:02
fully talk about this it would probably
00:05:04
take more than three hours so i'm not
00:05:05
going to and a lot of the rest of the
00:05:07
information is probably not relevant to
00:05:09
you guys so i will not say this so the
00:05:11
next question is why does why do you
00:05:14
give their idols less comebacks than
00:05:16
other groups so as i kind of touched on
00:05:18
previously their promotion strategy is
00:05:20
go big or go home their mindset is that
00:05:23
long-awaited comebacks will keep the
00:05:25
fans anticipation rates up and they'll
00:05:27
be more excited to see the new comeback
00:05:29
however that's kind of taken a toll
00:05:32
because it's a little too long now and
00:05:34
anticipation just kind of turns into
00:05:36
being tired and why do you believe that
00:05:38
it's cheaper to produce less music but
00:05:40
still earn the same income because
00:05:42
during breaks idols can do ads you know
00:05:45
acting any of that stuff that requires
00:05:48
less of a budget but it still keeps that
00:05:50
income rate up and comebacks cost a lot
00:05:53
of money i'm sure you guys know this
00:05:54
already so yg really likes to limit that
00:05:57
or you could just say frankly they don't
00:05:58
care about them but i feel like that's a
00:06:00
little bit of a stretch and another
00:06:02
hypothesis is that fans will stream more
00:06:04
and it's easier to stream more when
00:06:06
there's about 10 music videos you've
00:06:07
gotta stream one more negative question
00:06:09
and we're on two more so positive ones
00:06:11
so the question is how harsh is yg
00:06:13
taurus trainees so definitely diets are
00:06:16
quite important in yg i know like almost
00:06:19
every big company cares about diets and
00:06:21
cares about having a slim figure looking
00:06:24
you know ideal to the public and i don't
00:06:26
know if you guys noticed this but yg
00:06:28
idols rarely ever get into scandals
00:06:30
where it's like oh that idol looks a
00:06:32
little overweight if anything it's about
00:06:34
them being a little too underweight and
00:06:36
fans being a little concerned for them
00:06:38
which draws to a conclusion that yg does
00:06:40
care about your weight and you have to
00:06:42
look slim in order to promote in order
00:06:45
to debut in order to be a trainee now a
00:06:48
specific example of this would be top or
00:06:50
top from big bang because he initially
00:06:53
almost didn't make it into debuting
00:06:55
because while he was in the debut lineup
00:06:58
yg pretty much just called him fat and
00:07:00
he wasn't allowed to debut until he lost
00:07:02
weight so i think that tells you enough
00:07:04
and the next question is does yg allow
00:07:07
trainees or idols to attend school so
00:07:10
generally yg doesn't really allow
00:07:12
trainees or idols to actually go to
00:07:15
school unless they're not that serious
00:07:17
about them so let's say this idol made
00:07:19
it into the debut lineup they are so
00:07:21
close to debuting they'll probably take
00:07:23
them out of school because that's not
00:07:24
their priority their priority is to
00:07:27
train the best people and school is kind
00:07:29
of like a distraction from that you
00:07:30
could say now of course to any situation
00:07:33
there's always outliers but the next
00:07:35
question is what does yg look for in
00:07:38
idols and i feel like this is pretty
00:07:40
obvious because yg has their one
00:07:42
distinct style which is pretty much girl
00:07:44
crush or bad boy kind of concept sorry
00:07:46
that gives me the ick but you know what
00:07:48
i'm saying like those darker concepts
00:07:51
kind of more so powerful that kind of
00:07:53
thing and so with this calls for more so
00:07:56
idols with charisma and natural stage
00:07:58
violence and now this kind of connects
00:08:00
to the next question which is does yg
00:08:03
look for idols with confidence charisma
00:08:05
and personal style over talent and
00:08:07
visuals yes most definitely i would say
00:08:10
that it's kind of similar to sm but not
00:08:11
really now why it's kind of similar to
00:08:14
sm is because that they also believe
00:08:16
that talent can be learned and it can be
00:08:18
made so even if you're just lacking in
00:08:20
one thing they can learn that they can
00:08:22
teach you that now i'm sure you guys
00:08:24
have seen trainee days from yg idols and
00:08:26
they still have that charisma that they
00:08:28
exude even if they're just trainees and
00:08:30
they still have a personal style even
00:08:32
though it's not completely developed now
00:08:34
the question that everyone has been
00:08:35
waiting for does yg accept global
00:08:38
trainees now if you're talking about
00:08:40
koreans like ethnically koreans but they
00:08:42
live in other countries or they were
00:08:43
born in another country that definitely
00:08:45
counts i'm sure that's not what the
00:08:46
question originally asked for though a
00:08:48
lot of people think yg is open to
00:08:50
foreigners because oh lisa is thai
00:08:52
perfect there you go however she's
00:08:54
literally the only non-korean or
00:08:57
non-japanese idol in yg which makes you
00:08:59
think something but that's about it i
00:09:02
feel like because she's popular she's
00:09:03
kind of like the face of yj which
00:09:05
definitely makes sense however she's
00:09:07
really the only idol that's ethnically
00:09:10
non-east asian right now actually though
00:09:12
they do have a collaboration with a
00:09:13
thailand company in order to make a
00:09:15
k-pop slash thailand pop group so if you
00:09:18
are interested in that audition for it
00:09:19
they are making a boy group so i
00:09:20
wouldn't say that they're the most
00:09:22
global company out there but i wouldn't
00:09:24
also say that they're the non-global
00:09:26
company out there because it's a little
00:09:28
hard to predict trends from yg because
00:09:30
number one the lack of groups that they
00:09:32
have and number two they always pull
00:09:34
spontaneous moves that you cannot
00:09:36
predict and i feel like sometimes they
00:09:38
don't even know what they're doing now
00:09:40
the very last thing if i were to rank
00:09:42
the categories in terms of the most
00:09:44
favorable category to the least
00:09:45
favorable category it would have to be
00:09:47
firstly stage presence gosh this one
00:09:50
matters or sorry stage presence yeah
00:09:52
this one matters a lot guys and then the
00:09:54
next one would be vocal slash rap i just
00:09:56
kind of categorize that together because
00:09:58
a lot of yg idols tend to do both vocals
00:10:01
and rap and then kind of down there
00:10:03
would be dancing and then below that
00:10:05
would be visuals so that's kind of like
00:10:08
the rank i would say let me know if you
00:10:10
think differently but i feel like that's
00:10:11
a general idea maybe you could switch a
00:10:13
few things around here and there but
00:10:15
that's about it thank you so much for
00:10:16
watching please wait for the jyp one as
00:10:19
well it's coming next week and i'll see
00:10:20
you guys in the next video bye
00:10:23
[Music]
00:10:43
you
