Favorite Piece of Advice

Design your creative work as a system, not a series of one-off projects. The lesson we can learn from K-pop is to plan regular releases, connect each piece of content to a larger story, and use feedback from your audience to guide what you make next. Consistency and structure matter more than chasing occasional viral success.

Who is the true leader of BLACKPINK?
Up until 2024, I would have said that Lisa was probably the most successful. But Jennie has had an incredible year, and so has Rosé. But APT, where Jisoo stars, has been the biggest song globally for the last year.

Blackpink, like no other group, is a group of four superstars. They're all individually incredible superstars who just happen to have been put together into a group that has become the most successful female K-pop group of all time.
What do you think of Min Hee-Jin and NewJeans?
This is an unfolding situation right now. So NewJeans is a girl group, and they have been very popular in the last couple of years, one of the most viewed on YouTube. But they've had a meltdown with their management and their company. K-pop is very different from Western music because K-pop idols audition for a management company, and the management company decides whether you debut or not. This means that NewJeans parent company owns their name and controls the group. This led some members to leave the group and then renegotiate back in. One other member is currently in negotiation, and one member has been sacked. She is now being sued by the parent company. So it's all very messy.

Personally, I think it's just incredibly stressful for the girls involved and incredibly traumatic for their fans. I saw one guy yesterday saying they've sacked his bias, so he's pretty devastated. He's not going to continue to follow the group because his bias isn't in the group anymore.

There is some extra tea. We've heard that the family members of the person who was sacked stirred the pot a little bit. She comes from Australia, so she may have also been culturally ostracized for being outside of the culture.
