00:00When a K-pop idol is involved in a scandal, either one or two things happen, their label
00:11addresses it immediately and denies it, or the label doesn't say anything at all.
00:15It also depends on, like, what is this scandal about, because sometimes in Korean culture,
00:20this thing is not okay.
00:21Yeah.
00:22But for, like, international fans, they're like, we're totally fine with it.
00:23I think a type of scandal that would make me not want to follow them anymore would be
00:27anything like, like, domestic abuse, like, very, like, on the end of the extreme scale.
00:35For cancelable, I would probably say drug allegations are a big one.
00:40Even after the rumor has been, like, proved false, like, they don't come back to the group
00:44and that's frustrating for us to see, because we, like, love them so much and want, like,
00:48they've worked so hard for this.
00:49We want them to continue doing it.
00:57So, after Belgium concert, Fatou's mom actually invited all the members for dinner, because
01:23she wanted to cook for them.
01:26And so, me and my members went over to my mother's house, and we were having a good
01:31time eating, had a little bit of champagne, and there was music playing.
01:37Me and my mom started getting, like, really emotional.
01:39We both started crying, because we missed each other so much.
01:43And then Lea also started crying.
01:46Because I think about my mom.
01:48I'm losing time with my mom, too.
01:51She's getting old without me, and that's making me really sad.
02:01And all of a sudden, she said, oh, I just want to go home.
02:04Yongdun and Judy were like, but her mom just made all these amazing food, dessert, let's
02:10just be here for longer.
02:13And then Lea got a bit upset, and then she went to the bathroom.
02:19Because I was really sad.
02:21I stayed two hours in the bathroom crying, and I posted on my Instagram, and Fatou saw
02:29that.
02:30If I say it in English, it's a sarcastic way to say that this moment is F-word boring.
02:39Don't touch my family.
02:40That's one thing I won't ever play about.
02:42You disrespect my family.
02:44Me and you, we're enemies.
02:51I'm a different type of beast.
02:52I'm a different type of beast, beast, beast.
02:53I'm a different type of beast, but it's so good.
02:54Feel so good.
02:55I'm the baddest.
02:56I'm the baddest.
02:57I'm the baddest.
02:58I'm the baddest.
02:59I'm the baddest.
03:00I'm the baddest.
03:01I'm the baddest.
03:02I'm the baddest.
03:03I'm the baddest.
03:04I'm the baddest.
03:05I'm the baddest.
03:06I'm the baddest.
03:07I'm the baddest.
03:08I'm the baddest.
03:09I'm the baddest.
03:10I'm the baddest.
03:11I'm the baddest.
03:12I'm the baddest.
03:13I'm the baddest.
03:14I'm the baddest.
03:15I'm the baddest.
03:16I'm the baddest.
03:22Bring it back, I'm a mother-effing rockstar.
03:34Back in Korea, I did not speak to her at all.
03:41The three members, they are like enjoying together, but I was like separated.
03:47I don't know the name for this, if it's not bullying.
03:50Yeah.
03:51There was no form of bullying.
03:53It was a fight, without communication.
03:55It's something, to be honest, hurting me a lot.
03:59I tell this for my mom.
04:01I tell everything for my mom.
04:03My mom was like, if the company don't gonna do anything, I will do it.
04:07So she talked to the fan base, and the fan base posted.
04:14The fan account on Twitter posted conversations between the fan and Lea's mom.
04:20She said, Lea's being bullied by Fatou.
04:23At first, I was like, well, this is ridiculous.
04:26And then, just a few seconds later, I was like, really mad.
04:32Because Lea's mom involved our fans.
04:35She not only ruined our name,
04:40she kind of murdered our characters.
04:44My mom just tried to protect her daughter, in my opinion.
04:50Just that.
04:52That's when I was like, you know what?
04:54You want to bring it to a public space,
04:59I will bring my side public too.
05:03She's out there dragging my image through the freaking mud.
05:07I'm not gonna let anyone mistreat me.
05:11So I wrote my own statements.
05:13I wrote out the facts.
05:15Everything that happened, and I posted it.
05:24And since then, it's completely out of control.
05:33It was uncomfortable.
05:35It was awkward.
05:37It wasn't easy to talk to her.
05:40Fatou's fans call me racist.
05:43I'm not racist.
05:45That is like a horrible thing to say about someone.
05:48I did not open my comments to read them.
05:51I just noticed that fans were saying, stop sending racist messages to Fatou.
05:55And I was like, oh, okay.
05:57So that was happening in those comments.
05:59I see, I will not read those.
06:01I couldn't wrap it up.
06:04We tried to talk to each other, but it didn't work out.
06:07We were too busy blaming each other.
06:11We had too many differences of opinion.
06:13I know the truth.
06:14The people in this company know the truth.
06:17And that's it.
06:18The truth will always be revealed at the end of the day anyway, so.
06:22This is my first Europe tour without a label.
06:32Five cities in two weeks.
06:35Berlin.
06:42London.
06:47Every city we go to is just gradually getting worse and worse.
06:51And then we get to the third city, Paris.
06:55That's when all hell broke loose.
07:09As we got to the hotel, we tried to check in.
07:12But this organizer booked this hotel through a third-party site.
07:16So that person actually has to be there to check in.
07:19So we couldn't check in.
07:25We're waiting outside, three in the morning.
07:27I got my phone, I recorded it secretly.
07:30Just in case, for legal issue purposes.
07:37I don't know what to do.
07:38This is my third city.
07:40It's just getting worse and worse and worse.
07:43The tour organizers I had been working with,
07:46they were supposed to make sure the itinerary is right.
07:49That the artist gets some sleep, has food, and she performs.
07:53That's their job.
07:57Right?
07:58Everyone thinks it's a great show.
08:00Yeah.
08:01They don't know what's going on behind doors.
08:03They don't know I'm crying every day on the street.
08:05The same issue keeps coming up.
08:07And more issues keep coming up.
08:09I don't hate people.
08:17But when I see my daughter crying...
08:26She can't sleep.
08:28She has to perform in a few hours.
08:30How do you do that?
08:31That's Jessi.
08:36It doesn't matter.
08:38No, it doesn't matter.
08:40None of it matters.
08:42Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me nothing more.
08:46How are the kids doing?
08:48On social media,
08:50fans who support Part 2 and fans who support Lea
08:53are fighting hard.
08:55I think Part 2 is getting more support.
09:00Lea has a problem?
09:02Yes.
09:04We can't just leave this on social media.
09:07Let's get the company involved.
09:09Yes.
09:10K-pop groups and other girl groups
09:12get a lot of support from the company.
09:14If the company tells them not to fight,
09:18they don't fight.
09:20But their multinational groups
09:23have different cultures, languages, and ways of expressing themselves.
09:26I don't think it makes sense
09:29to control them the way Korea does.
09:32But I don't think it's right
09:34to take the fans' support
09:36when you two need to solve your problems.
09:38And...
09:41Lea's condition isn't good.
09:44Yes.
09:46Hospital...
09:48Lea's next treatment
09:50is scheduled for next Tuesday.
09:53Tuesday?
09:54Lea's mental state isn't good.
09:58Yes.
09:59I want you to go to the hospital
10:01without missing the treatment.
10:04Okay.
10:05Okay?
10:06Yes.
10:15So, in Paris,
10:17there are hiccups and issues,
10:19miscommunication.
10:21Luckily, through the help of Jess's friend,
10:24that person found a hotel in Paris.
10:27We probably got into bed around 6, 7 in the morning.
10:32I remember the sun was up.
10:36I slept like three hours.
10:38I was stranded outside in the cold.
10:40I've done this for 18 years.
10:42This never happened in my life.
10:45When you're that stressed out already
10:47with everyone fighting,
10:49how am I going to sleep?
10:50Like, I don't have time to sleep.
10:52I have rehearsals, I have a meet-and-greet, all this stuff.
10:54I'm just so tired, I'm crying.
10:56I just, I couldn't hold my shit together.
11:02My performance is in a couple hours.
11:05We told the organizer,
11:07hey, Jess is not going to go through with this Paris show.
11:11Let's postpone it,
11:12because she's exhausted, mentally drained,
11:15and she's not really physically capable
11:18of going on with this show,
11:20which the organizer said okay, agreed on it.
11:24I woke up thinking that there was going to be no Paris show.
11:27They were supposed to tell my Paris fans
11:29that the show was going to be delayed
11:31like a couple of days after.
11:32But the tour organizers,
11:34they did not tell the venue and the fans
11:36that it was going to be delayed.
11:38So they told me, if you're not going to do it,
11:40you tell your fans.
11:54All my energy, you saw that.
11:57Jess, I don't know what to tell you right now,
12:00because this is not something that's supposed to happen.
12:04We thought the show was canceled.
12:10The organizers, they told her,
12:12if you do want to postpone the show,
12:14let your fans know that you want to postpone the show,
12:17which is not her job to do.
12:19They should have been taking care of that.
12:25Nobody's taking responsibility.
12:27Nobody, nobody.
12:29So I have to do it.
12:30I have to go up on stage and act like nothing's wrong.
12:34Unnie, you know me.
12:35I don't perform, and I'm not the type to go up there and...
12:39Give your half-ass. I know, Jess.
12:41And I'm...
12:42She's a very strong character,
12:44but Jess's mental state, it was not good.
12:48She felt very hurt because she was going through a lot
12:53because she was kind of put in this position to do the show.
12:57She was just, she couldn't, she had no energy.
13:02Jess.
13:17Let's do the makeup.
13:19No, no, it's fine.
13:21I'll go there, let's just figure it out.
13:23Unnie, let's just put on anything.
13:25I don't know what to do.
13:26I gotta think of something.
13:27I gotta think of something.
13:39I'm hungry.
13:42Don't you want some chicken?
13:44I'm so hungry right now.
13:46Order whatever you want.
13:47Order whatever you want.
13:48I need to make something to eat.
13:52When people hear that K-pop trainees or idols live in dorms,
13:56they think college dorms.
13:58But in reality, they're actually apartments,
14:01and all the members live together.
14:03Living in a dorm with our members means that we always have company.
14:07When you're bored, we can always go to each other and be like,
14:10hey, let's go watch a movie.
14:12Or like, oh, yeah, let's play a game.
14:14Yeah, it's just really lively, and it's always a good time.
14:18Let's eat.
14:19Let's eat.
14:21Let's have a salad.
14:29It's good, it's good.
14:31It's been so long since I had home-cooked meals.
14:33Yeah.
14:34Is this really a salad?
14:37If you eat a salad like this, you'll gain weight.
14:39It's a compliment.
14:40But it looks really good.
14:42How is it in the U.S.? Do you like it?
14:43Of course.
14:44Do you like it?
14:45What was that reaction?
14:47Of course.
14:50I was born in Taipei, and I moved to Hacienda Heights, California,
14:54at the age of five.
14:56I've always had K-pop around me,
14:58but I never really fell in love with it
15:01until I started having this crush on a girl in middle school.
15:06She liked SHINee,
15:08and our middle school choir would host an annual talent show.
15:14For one of the talent shows,
15:16I covered a song from SHINee.
15:21After doing that on stage,
15:24I had good reactions.
15:26Were you able to win her over?
15:29No, actually.
15:33Because of that, I really felt like
15:35this might be a path for me,
15:37becoming a K-pop idol.
15:40Wow, the watermelon smells so good.
15:42What's famous in L.A.?
15:44L.A.?
15:45The sea.
15:46Hollywood signs.
15:48Disneyland.
15:49Disneyland.
15:50There's Disneyland?
15:51Yes.
15:52Is L.A. close to the sea?
15:53It's close to the sea.
15:54Is it?
15:55You have to drive there.
15:56It takes about 40 minutes to an hour.
15:58There's a traffic jam.
16:00There's an amusement park by the sea.
16:01That's right.
16:03I've seen it in movies.
16:04There's a Ferris wheel.
16:07Because of how close we were in age,
16:09we did a lot of activities together.
16:11I joined choir in middle school,
16:12and he joined choir.
16:13And then I joined all-male hip-hop in high school,
16:15and he joined Gravy Babies.
16:17And they were a really hip-hop-heavy team as well.
16:20Alan became passionate about dancing.
16:23He was really driven and talented.
16:25How I got to my current company, Starship,
16:29is through a vocal teacher.
16:32She was also teaching vocal lessons at Starship.
16:35I guess she saw potential in me,
16:37and so she hooked it up
16:39with the artist development employee.
16:42I dropped out of high school too,
16:44and my parents were completely supportive of that.
16:54I gave up everything to become a K-pop idol.
16:58There were hard times,
17:00like when self-doubt and anxiety overcomes me.
17:04I think that's when I miss my family the most.
17:07Because I wanted to prove it to them that, you know,
17:09even if I drop out of high school, I can make it.
17:12That's what really helped me push through.
17:19Personally, I keep myself to a very high standard,
17:22so I definitely don't want to disappoint.
17:25In this upcoming fancon,
17:27I'm ready to show the world who I am
17:29and what I've been preparing for.
17:37Woogin!
17:38Huh?
17:39Why do you use so much stuff when you cook?
17:42Thank you for saying that after enjoying the food.
17:44That's too much.
17:49Let's watch memes.
17:50Memes?
17:51There's a cat too.
17:54Oh, no.
18:08I kind of feel here don't make my mental health good.
18:13It's not like from now.
18:20I just wake up in the...
18:25And then I start to cry a lot.
18:28I don't know even why.
18:31I know I'm sick,
18:33but here in Korea,
18:35depression is not a sickness.
18:47Without my family,
18:49I feel I lose my essence.
18:54I feel they suck everything.
19:04One minute left.
19:08When my dad found out about this scandal,
19:12he was actually really mad at what was happening.
19:17So Black Swan has been doing a live stream
19:21on our official YouTube channel every week.
19:24Let's start.
19:25One, two, three.
19:27Be unique. Hello, we're Black Swan.
19:31For this live stream,
19:33we requested all the members
19:35explain what was going on
19:37and apologize to the fans.
20:01Don't yawn.
20:02Okay.
20:03Sleep.
20:04Okay.
20:05Okay.
20:36Today in the live,

21:02I didn't know what to say.
21:04Today in the live,
21:05I was supposed to say,

21:08But I didn't say that.

21:35I'm sorry.
21:36I'm sorry.
21:37I'm sorry.
21:38I'm sorry.

22:01I'm sorry.
22:02I'm sorry.
22:03Good Job.
22:04Good Job everyone.
22:05Thank you for your hard work.
22:12It's hard.
22:14My throat doesn't work.
22:15Is it coming out?
22:17Can you hear it?
22:18I can't hear well.
22:19Because it's music so you can't hear it.
22:21Can you sing?
22:22It Paris was pretty much the biggest venue
22:24out of the whole Europe tour.
22:26So how am I going to,
22:29cancel anything?
22:31I,
22:32There is no way in hell I'm going to do that to my fans,
22:35but I can't pretend like anything happened.
22:38It's hard to fake a smile after all that happened.
22:41I mean, Jess, she's very transparent.
22:43If there's something she needs to say, she's going to say it.
22:46I'm not going to give my fans a half-assed show.
22:48There's no way in hell. It's all on me.
22:51I'm going to pretend I'm a beast.
23:05I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:08I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, but it's not me.
23:12I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:15I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, but it's not me.
23:20I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:22I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:24I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:26I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:28I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:30I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:32I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:34I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:36I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:38I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:42I'm going to pretend I'm a beast, beast, beast.
23:51It was the loudest crowd I've ever been in.
23:54My fans give me this energy.
23:57They just bring me back to life.
24:01They give me hope.
24:02I've been stranded outside last night till 6 o'clock in the morning you know
24:28I'm going to
24:58You
25:07Gonna meet snakes you're in there right and I came out penation thinking everything was gonna be all great and beautiful
25:14That's not the reality
25:21There's never gonna be a perfect life
25:23But if my fans were happy then I'm happy because I know I gave them a hundred percent
25:29Whether it was a performance whether it was just me being there and just talking with that as in a human being not just
25:35An artist that was everything to me, and I think that is what made me realize
25:40That I can do anything
25:53I
26:23Won't go. I think I didn't want to put the kids. Oh, yeah, I'll do the
26:27Key with the money up so don't leave. Oh, I'm sorry. I'll go buddy
26:32Joy to be with you from mommy. I don't think of us
26:39Well, I'm on stacks
26:41I'll get a song good. I'm a pretty little bit. I'm ready to cut and socks. I don't think I'll be stuck with Kimbo
26:47It's a man's oh, I'm on stacks. Oh, I'm done
26:50I'm good. You're cool. I'm sure on the TV. I don't talk about it
26:58All good, you're
27:01Good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm so mean. Do you know what I do?
27:09My old egg it are a lot of heavy thing in my kind of a kid a day go crazy. I'll show you what I know
27:14So they're funny. What's funny?
27:20Oh
27:50I
27:58Don't look at this
28:04Let's go
28:20Oh
28:50I
29:20I was really overcome by emotions when I saw our fans.
29:48I was just so thankful for everyone who's ever helped me get to where I am right now.
29:58And yeah, I think our company received it really well as well.
30:03There's so many K-pop groups that are trying to make it.
30:09What do you think makes CRAVITY extra special?
30:13I think we need to get back to basics and practice what we've been doing.
30:27I don't think we've succeeded yet.
30:34Can you tell us if you think CRAVITY deserves to succeed?
30:42I don't think we're that special yet.
30:48I'll be honest with you.
30:52I think it'd be great if you could tell us one of your strengths.
30:55I think the most important thing is that CRAVITY needs to succeed.
31:09I think you should say that.
31:11Can't we just ask Sihyeon?
31:42After the live, it did not get better.
31:45But even if there's drama, we still have to practice and move forward because we have to get better.
31:51So you just gotta suck it up and practice.
32:00Lea now is not easy to work with, nor does she want to be in the group.
32:04And being in this tense atmosphere, it's just unfortunate.
32:09Because if we don't put out a comeback, which is putting out new music,
32:14our existing fans right now could be like,
32:16you know what, they're not putting anything out, so we can just go to this other group.
32:20Because they're always putting music out.
32:22Black Swan has only two albums that's been released so far since their debut.
32:31And I don't think it's a good thing for us because
32:36for rookie idols who's not that popular yet, it's a bad thing.
32:46I do not wish to have any more personal relationships with her, business-wise.
32:51If I have to, I'll have to.
32:54You know, just put your feelings aside, it's whatever, at least professional.
32:59She is not worth losing my dream.
33:03She is not worth that much.
33:05My dream is always first place.
33:07Black Swan, for me, is first.
33:10And I will not just let that go just because she's in the group.
33:13She's not worth that much.
33:16Yeah.
33:19I feel they're going to hate me.
33:22But to be honest, I don't care anymore, really.
33:25Like, you know the movie Get Out?
33:29I want to get out.
33:31I just think here is not for me anymore.
33:34But I cannot go out like, oh, bye, I'm leaving Black Swan.
33:38It's not like that.
33:40Because I have a contract.
33:42And like, I signed that with my hands.
34:05Yeah.
34:07Wow.
34:12Hello.
34:13Hello.
34:14Hello.
34:15Hello.
34:16Hello.
34:17Come here.
34:18Yes.
34:19Yes.
34:35They are singers, and they are still in training.
34:38So we have to teach them what they can't do.
35:00Last year, we announced
35:02that we are going to have a global audition.
35:04And, like, about 4,000 people applied for it.
35:14Yes, so today we're beginning a roadblock search
35:16to find a new member of Black Swan.
35:29We finally picked two candidates.
35:32They came to Korea in December.
35:35And to adapt to Korean culture,
35:37they had Korean lessons for about 4 hours in the morning.
35:41And they are getting used to it, but they are still not used to it.
35:44You two.
35:45Yes.
35:46Introduce yourself.
35:47Yes, yes.
35:48One, two, three.
35:49Hello.
35:51I am...
35:55Nice to meet you.
35:56Nice to meet you.
35:58I am Gabi, and I am 19 years old.
36:03I will do my best.
36:08Nice to meet you.
36:11Hello.
36:12I am Sri Lanka, and I am 18 years old.
36:15I am from India.
36:17I will do my best.
36:21Nice to meet you.
36:25Most importantly, the reason we picked Gabi and Surya
36:29is because of their nationality.
36:32Brazil is one of the biggest consumers of K-pop,
36:37and India is one of the largest countries
36:41that has the most population in the world.
36:44K-pop is slowly growing in that market,
36:48so if Black Swan could become very popular in those areas,
36:53that means we have a lot of fans.
36:55Yeah, that's pretty much it.
36:58Gabi and Surya have been training in Korea for a couple of months.
37:03Our plan is to select whoever shows that they are mentally
37:09and physically ready to become a K-pop idol.
37:13It could be none of them, it could be one of them,
37:16or it could be both of them.
37:18I told the Black Swan members that this is a very strange competition.
37:23Because I don't think it's important to be a regular member.
37:28Don't sit in that position.
37:30Because I don't think it makes sense to be the number one in the world
37:34without being able to compete in this team.

37:45Because of this, the kids will have a very strange competition.
37:49It's going to be a bloodbath.
37:53I've come this far, and I'm going to have a hard time.
37:59I hope I do my best,
38:03and survive.
