I was bored so I thought I would go on a little rant about korean entertainment companies. It occurred to me that most companies such as SM, JYP, YG etc can only manage one act at a time whilst they send the other act to breach into the American market or the Japanese market. I'll give an example from each entertainment company.
SM is known for debuting quite a lots of acts. Whilst they debut the newer acts like snsd and shinee the older acts such as CSJH the grace and DBSK are sent to Japan, although DBSK or Tohoshinki are doing pretty well in Japan I genuinely feel sorry for CSJH the grace. They are four very talented women with some of the best voices and talent in kpop, it seems they have been kicked to Japan left fighting for themselves with almost no promotion to make way for younger debuts. Even with super junior comeback they left it so long that some of the members came back unrecognizable or missing. Looks like those two act aren't exactly in father SM favourite book.
JYP isn't as bad as SM but I'm sure hoping that he won't put the Wondergirls with his other american debuts that who knows when will debut. As he is now focusing on 2pm I'm hoping he will bring the Wondergirls back to korea soon as I think if they do make it they would only be one hit wonders or laughing joke in America.
YG is another big company that although is not very good at promoting, is very good at spotting talent. They are another company that is not so good at managing their acts. Whilst they are currently promoting 2NE1, big bang is sent to Japan to be big whilst Seven is left on the streets of America jumping from club to club and advertising for verizon wireless, he should just swim it back to korea where he will actually get some love from his waiting fans!
It not that I have something against these new talents or the companies as I do enjoy their music but I just think they need better management!!
