@The Meaning is Always Vague Larissa's situation is very worrying, we Brazilian fans cheer for her success, it is really rare for our country. But we are also very afraid of the same thing that happened to Alex T.T We Brazilian fans are very concerned about the company's history of problems, and about the fact that Larissa is so young. Our heart is really very tight
Stupid Person I only speak facts lol🤷🏿♀️ her mom was a speech professor. I’m not going to mention the college for privacy purposes. Alex visited our class to encourage us about public speaking.
She speaks kindly and very humbly about her idol memories as well as her past members, there has to be a lot of tea to spill about the kpop industry, but I think that it's a class act for her to just focus on positive things, I wish her and her past members well
@@kekw5153 you mean the video? Like there are many kpop idols who have talked about it. You can just search kpop inkigayo sandwiches and you'll prob find some stuff.
@@eizuyang8293 i know its not them its just the first group that was in my head. i think the screenshot showed youngjae lol. (random screenshot) or at least someone who looked like him lol.
It makes me happy knowing that she was embraced by the Koreans and didn’t face much racism since almost every article says how she left due to bad racism and how everyone was racist to her.
I think a lot of international fans get brainwashed by all kinds of sources about " celeb news" from Korea, and there's so much prejudice against knetz when no one even reads or understands Korean to have ever seen anything that those "news articles" say with their own eyes. I think the amount of times people jump on the bandwagon to hate on knetz that international fans have never even communicated with is beyond ridiculous
hi. You’re an idiot. She did say that they were racist. She said she didn’t face racism from the fans but she did face racism from everyone else. Stop being naive and looking for a way to go back to your naivety. We have to wake up.
B Free I was mainly referring to the fans and she did say that she never faced any major racism or anything a part from that one time w the cab driver. She even said herself that she didn’t get kicked out nor did she leave due to racism.
if it was for demonstrate it was because she came late into the group like she was added as a last min addition and the choreography was done without her so like they didnt have much time to really to do anythig with the choreo
Also! Appearantly if your belly wouldn't fold your skin there would split open if you like stretched to get something from a high shelf. So, yay belly fold 🖤🖤 Edit, so a large part of it usually is your skin, not fat as people seem to think
They didn’t give her a translator??? That’s insane. I couldn’t even imagine being in a country where I don’t know the language and not having someone be there to only help me... holy shit. Edit: why are some of you mad over this comment? Get over it?? Edit 2: this is getting a lot of likes... haha I’m scared.
PinkSakura other foreign idols have had translators. Nobody was even telling this girl what was going on, which is wrong. How is she supposed to be a productive member of the group if she doesn’t know what is going on? It’s kind of ridiculous.
During the promotion of DEMONSTRATE, the boy bands that were there were: Vixx, Monsta X, M.A.P6, BTOB, ROMEO, VAV, LU: KUS, N.flying but also the duo Homme. !!!!!!!
OK, I DID MY RESEARCH GUYS. 1. Alex first talked the only idol she DATED, and she never told Grace about that before. 9:00 she said "No, I told you about the first time I got a number" but he was a different guy. 2. When did they date? She said in 9:06 "this was right before START A FIRE". So she is talking 2016, when her group was in a Hiatus. But she also said that she got his number during DEMONSTRATE era (november, 2015). 3. Now let's see the shows RaNia attended during those promotions and the male idols who were promoting the same day. - 151105 | Mnet "M!Countdown" - BTOB, MONSTA X, UP10TION, N.FLYING - 151113 | KBS "Music Bank" - VIXX, MONSTA X, BTOB, MADTOWN, N.FLYING, 24K, LU:KUS, HIGH4, ROMEO - 151114 | MBC "Music Core" - MONSTA X, BTOB, VIXX, VAV, N.FLYING, MAP6, LU:KUS, ROMEO - 151115 | SBS "Inkigayo" - BTOB, MADTOWN, ROMEO, N.FLYING, LU.KUS - 151206 | MBC Music "Show Champion" - BTS, THE LEGEND, B.I.G, MADTOWN, SNUPER, ROYAL PIRATES, MAP6, VAV - 151208 | SBS MTV "The Show" - BTS, B.A.P, FTISLAND, UP10TION, SEVENTEEN, MADTOWN, HALO, MAP6, ROYAL PIRATES - 151212 | MBC "Music Core" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, MONSTA X, THE LEGEND, HALO, SNUPER, UP10TION, ROAD BOYZ - 151219 | MBC "Music Core" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, MADTOWN, LU:KUS, MAP6, SNUPER. - 151220 | SBS "Inkigayo" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, UP10TION 4. I think I missed some shows on the list but they had no awards or they line-up was the same I pointed out in previous dates. Also, since Alex said 9:45 "I did know who he is" and because of Grace asked her if she knew who he was, I think he wasn't a big star at the time. But Grace question also makes sense because Alex is a foreigner, so maybe Grace thought Alex wasn't familiar with kpop idols, even if they were top stars. But since she knew who they were, it was NOT a rookie group, because it takes long to remember the names of the rookies. And well, MONSTA X, SEVENTEEN, UP10TION and many others on that list, were rookies at the time (2015). 5. But then at 10:55 Grace asked "are they still promoting?" and Alex did a little pause (very short) so I guess the group hasn't disbanded but also, it's been a while since they last promoted (this video is from june 2019, keep that in mind). So it can't be BTS, EXO, SEVENTEEN or MONSTA X because they are basically global kpop stars at the moment, doing tours and leading the industry. B.A.P is a little tricky, because they terminated their contract on early 2019 but we don't know if they disbanded (but I think they did, actually, because they had major issues with their company) so I would say BTOB and VIXX are the big candidates. 6. Since Alex said she started dating him in 2016 "right before START A FIRE", they had a relationship that went for a few months. But then she said they broke up because "promotions started for him" and well, BTOB had a comeback in march 2017 and VIXX in may 2017. 7. So I guess it could be any member of VIXX or BTOB, but since Alex is a 89lines I would guess she dated someone close to her age, so I think BTOB EunKwang (90line), BTOB MinHyuk (90line), BTOB ChangSub (91line), BTOB HyunSik (92line), VIXX N (90line), VIXX Leo (90line), VIXX Ken (92line). But this is just my guess... 8. Lastly, she said the first time she received a number it was also during "DEMONSTRATE" era and her manager "was in love with him", so maybe he was someone very famous but even so, Alex didn't know him... so the guy she dated must have been really popular, and the guy who have him the number less popular, but still popular enough to be Rania's manager crush. 9. It's really hard to say. Personally I think she dated a BTOB member and someone from VIXX gave her the number, in this case not necessarily someone close to her age. Maybe Ravi? Because he was making news back then so maybe that's why the manager said "YES, OF COURSE I KNOW HIM".
I was like "wow, kinda interesting that no one made a research on who were promoting at the same time as her to see who was the lucky guy that she date" and then i saw this lol, thank you, i was so curious about it xd
I wish she would have touched on what the situations were like for hair and makeup. Did stylists ever have a hard time with her curly hair? Did she have to bring her own complexion makeup? Were the MUAs skilled enough to apply eye shadow to her big hooded eyes? Did she ever have to do her own makeup? I'm curious.
She's a little darker than the other idols and there are tanned koreans like Jessi so I'm pretty sure she didn't have a problem with makeup and her hair is wavy, other koreans have that type of hair too. I think you can use the same products that you use for straight hair for that
I used to do some modelling in South Korea a couple of years ago, so I can guess how she was treated based on my experience. When the MUAs are aware that there will be a black girl in the shooting, they always have at least one shade of dark brown foundation that they mix with a dark beige one until the color matches the skintone of the model. For the hair, I had real hair extensions back then so most of the time they would either curl or straighten it depending on what the look for the photo shoot or video had to be. Since Alex's hair seems to be "thin" (I don't know how to say that properly in English), I'm guessing that doing her hair before she went on stage wasn't that complicated. That being said, some MUAs don't bother when they are not given any particular directions. I wouldn't be surprised if Alex had to do everything on her own, I'm pretty sure that some Korean idols are in the same situation sometimes
BP Rania was one of my favourite groups and I was so curious of what Alex was up to... and 100000% im SO excited for that girlgroup y’all talked about please do it
Halo Queen honestly I think it’s cause they are koreaboos who have asian fetisashes like recently because of the plus(bighit and source music) auditions there have been so many people saying omg I’m going to audition who arnt even asian
jhobiseok see that’s how it should go and honestly I support you but there’s going to be fans who will start to hate on you because your doing what they want to do
Following the discovery that every remaining member of the group had removed "RaNia" from their social media accounts and that the company had unfollowed some of the members, rumours began to circulate that DR Music as a company had gone bankrupt and was unable to continue operations, resulting in an unofficial disbandment.[ (Source: Wikipedia)
The Wikipedia article is a little off on that part, Jieun never removed RaNia from hers and Hyeme and Jieun are the only members who still appear in DR Music's practice room. The bankruptcy part is heavily rumored but Ttabo left late last year and Zi.U, apparently, left earlier this year though no one knows about Namfon yet. Either way, if we see RaNia again, I assume it will be mostly new members...
That's a story didn't know 'Secret' company is suing them. I thought the company disbanded them. Everything they asked to girls to do they did, lost weight had surgery. Also Han Sun-hwa did a lot of dramas. Can't wait to hear what happened.
No offense but jung sis are far too high for this kind of content ( no hate for grace tho ) plus, krystal is still in SM and you excatly know how strict SM can be with their Idols
It’s hard to get in the Koreans circle if you’re not korean. I used to work in a korean company and although majority are nice and respectful but they have an invisible boundary. It’s like they don’t share anything personal or want to get to know you as a “closer” friend. They would say nice things to be respectful but may not mean it in their hearts. It’s just my two cents don’t hate me. I guess every culture, race is different so I’m ok.
As an Asian girl, that’s the exact thing I felt and experienced when I was studying abroad in the US. People there were kind in general, but I felt like there is a wall made of glass right in front of me whenever I am in a meeting like a group discussion. Also, there was a moment when students had to form a group for a project throughout the whole semester, but back then nobody didn’t let me in the group. They literally ignored me. So ultimately I had to drop out of that class because I couldn’t find a group to belong to.
"He wasn't the leader so why does he have the CD" "Maybe his group was reading him" YALL WE LOVE BROTHERS WHO GOT EACH OTHER'S BACK LIKE SHOOT YOUR SHOT BRUHHHH 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
The funny thing is that fans get so pressed about idols dating because they think their group members don't know and they might get affected by the news when their own members are the ones helping them date 😂🙄
im so glad to see she's doing ok. i remember when they announce and African American girl was joining a kpop group. i pray she didn't have to go racism, and discrimination. i even cheer Rania on because of her. thanks Grace for shading light on the behind stories.
Rania’s company is a real real real mess Like they announce they’re going to comeback in June 2018 and then suddenly the Chinese member Ttabo left as well and then they added a Thai member who’s a 01-liner and thenthey say they are going to comeback soon and then that’s it They just add members whoever they like and just don’t think of the consequences It’s kind of weird they have such a weird contract lol the members just keep leaving after 1/2 comebacks and new members just keep being added without even thinking Tbh the biggest tea I wanted to know is has she ever got paid 😭😭😂with this whole mess of the company I felt like they never ever gained profit loll Ps I always knew Rania was free to date anyone as I knew one of the members just married a ToppDogg member lol Pps just checked on wiki they got married because they had a son and right after they had a son they separted...omg what a mess
Im pretty sure they are into shady things since the ceo knows yg. Remember he profuced style. I think he uses the group as a way to hide the shady things they di
Yeah the toppdogg thing, I read about it and I was so sad they separated, I only knew they had gotten married and had a son but then I was looking through the profiles and it mentioned them splitting up
@@BuzzBunnyTTV they probably had sex unprotected since sex education is pretty inexistent in South Korea, she got pregnant and they married before the baby was born because having a child out of marriage is not well-considered in South Korea. That apparently happens a lot
Omg Alex! I haven't heard from her in such a long time, I'm so glad you could make a video with her! I'm happy she is doing alright, loved to hear more about her experiences, she looks like such a nice and funny person to be around. Thank you grace for always blessing us with these interviews!♡
She'll probably never get a chance, but if she did an interview with Tasha from Skarf and Idol School that would be great, cuz that girl must have a lot to say, from being a trainee for several years, getting to debut in the first group with Singaporean idols, to disbanding quickly, going back to a trainee and then participating in Mnet's Idol School and ultimately giving up on the kpop life
KingSeonbae she did mention on her instagram that she’s giving it another chance but at the moment i think she’s just enjoying her life but it looks like she might give it another go. she’s a talented dancer so it was a waste that skarf disbanded.
Seulji and Alex were good friends (I hope I spelled her name correct. I know she changed it after), but I wondered what happened to their friendship. 🤔 The company used Alex. Let's be real. 🤷🏾♀️
@@nonparlesvouz2720 bitch she didnt pop up. People asked her to be in the group and she seized the opportunity. Talking like you wouldnt do the same thing lmao
Omg I saw the both of you at KCON last year and I remember when Alex was on stage, she pulled Grace up to the stage to do a freestyle. It was so lit! And I'm so glad that you both are still friends! I would fully support if you ladies had a KPOP group. ❤
14:41 when Alex talked about the thing that someone said to her that hurt her before, hurt me right now as well. As a kpop fan, tbh, one of the reasons why I support my idols is bcs I know they've sacrificed a lot to debut bcs being a trainee is like survival of the fittest. And debuting as an idol doesn't mean that you're going to live a life fulk of luxury. Kpop idols are idols because they are passionate enough to do it, it's their dream and not just bcs they dont have anything good to do or what. PS. I hope you're doing good now, Alex :))
What sucks is she joined a really crappy company too :( But glad she had some good experiences! Can't wait to read the book👀 and yes I will stan your girl group!!
A lot of kpop fans have the investigations skills of the freakin FBI if not better. I'm sure someone is already digging it up and we'll find out soon enough 😂😂
I love Alex like I remember reading the essay she wrote about getting into Kpop and I always appreciated her since then bc she really understood why Kpop works esp fan engagement wise. She rly is such a good voice to have in Kpop (and I can’t wait for her book) and I wish she would promote again (make a group omg). She deserved a better debut experience than like being added to an already established group & essentially being thrown to the wolves. This interview was great and I’m gonna resist being nosy in figuring out who she’s dated/got numbers from lol
They always had excuses as to why they didn’t have an outfit for her, but there was one show where she was matching with the group. Only one show though, she always had to wear her own clothes
We need more Korean British groups. There are lots of idols that lived in America or were born in America, or Australia and New Zealand, but no Brits, whatsoever. I'm a Brit myself and would love to see some Korean British idols. That would be awesome.
InSomniaArmyCheshire MooMooReveluvMeU The British Korean population is extremely small compared to the American/Canadian or Australian population... there are about 2 million east Asian people in the UK compared to American where there’s about 16 million Asian people in the US (not sure how many of those American Asians are East Asian because it doesn’t specify). But that’s probably a big reason why you won’t see as many British Kpop idols as American
@@oooglit4655 Oh yeah I meant Korea American as in style. Like fifth Harmony meets BlackPink or Little Mix (I know they aren't American) meets Twice; a merge between K-Pop and American pop it's what I meant Hope I'm making sense lol :)
Alex inspires me THE MOST. As an African American teenager who loves K-Pop, my dream is to be an idol and to see Alex here means a lot to me. She is my role model and I know I can learn a lot from her. Hopefully I can meet her in person so I can learn more❤️ Thank Alex for being you!! I LOVE YOU!! (Sorry for the late reply lol)
sooo... some male idols that performed on the same days as rania performed “demonstrate” : bts, vixx, monsta x, btob, ikon, exo, up10tion, madtown, b.a.p, the legend, map6, vav, halo, b.i.g, snuper, road boyz, romeo, lu:kus 🤪 might’ve missed some
yeosangel it’s definitely B.A.P because she did say that they stop talking because he was having a situation with his company which is the law suit time I think bap had a hard time
yeosangel Im thinking it was someone from BAP,MonstaX or Madtown orrr Ikon....cuz the groups seem kinda well know. From how they was talking. Meh idk lol but I was trying to think ahahah
number 2 : this had probably started around May-June , as the 3 last original members left by the end of may. number 3 : His group was probably not promoting either right before "start a fire " which was released on december 30th 2016 , that minus 2 months of preparation would've given them from june-november (unless they were on and off) number 4: He's not the leader but famous enough that Alex knew him ? and his English is not good.
When people say that being an idol is for the guys and girls who don't have anything to do with their life. Namjoon from BTS has an iq of 148 and with his skills he would easily go to a university, get a degree and job. edit: people gave more examples in the replies and I just wanna say thanks for informing us on this~
I honestly have so much respect for Alex, it just sucks that she wasn't treated like the other artists despite putting in the work for it. Like if a company wants you and then you train like any Korean trainee would, and the domestic K-Pop fandom accepts you then like it just sucks to see that go. What I don't understand is why she had to go back to the US and they would just phone her to bring her back for promos? Like that's such a messy way to manage a group, if you look at other foreign trainees they don't mention going back they usually just mention not being able to go home.
This was such a wonderful interview (i loved all the questions, and both you Grace and Alex are so lovely and bright!) Thank you so much for the video! You lift my spirit :3
If you get a chance can you please interview Lana on her experience in Prod101 China and also in Kpop in Korea? She received a lot of hate even though she lived in Korea for years and studied at Sungkyukwan University before training for 2-3 years and debuting as an idol! She really deserves to receive the spotlight for all her hard work! Also thank you for this interview with Alex!
I love these interviews so much!! If it's ever possible I would love to hear an interview with Hanbit of Mercury! There are so few open LGBT kpop stars I really admire her and I'd love to hear about her experiences

The whole dating story is so interesting! I’m glad that idols have the opportunity to date, even if it’s in secret
I knew they dated in secret because during an idols sports show or something, the comedians were speculating who was dating who
I wish it didn't have to be in secret, though. idols should be able to date freely without fans treating them horribly for doing so
Same but it's also sad because I wish they could trust us more ( I know they can't risk it but still )

They didn’t give her a translator??? That’s insane. I couldn’t even imagine being in a country where I don’t know the language and not having someone be there to only help me... holy shit.
Edit: why are some of you mad over this comment? Get over it??
Edit 2: this is getting a lot of likes... haha I’m scared.
I think most foreign idols go through this.
no other foreign idol have translators why should she be treated special? also, I doubt the company could even afford to have one just for her
PinkSakura other foreign idols have had translators. Nobody was even telling this girl what was going on, which is wrong. How is she supposed to be a productive member of the group if she doesn’t know what is going on? It’s kind of ridiculous.
If every foreign idol has a translator,their Korean would never improve.
10,000 subs without any videos NEENJA no but she had more members that could speak english
During the promotion of DEMONSTRATE, the boy bands that were there were: Vixx, Monsta X, M.A.P6, BTOB, ROMEO, VAV, LU: KUS, N.flying but also the duo Homme.
!!!!!!!
Which group you think it was? I heard stuff about N. FLYING
Link?
If it’s a group or member that’s pretty popular I’m guessing BTOB or VIXX tbh.
@@Lia-nw5dw I think these two are too popular to fit, same with Monsta X. Probably N.Flying.
ERTHEWORLD OMGG
She has a cute and outgoing personality. I love it. She makes me feels like I wanna have a conversation with her 😂
OK, I DID MY RESEARCH GUYS.
1. Alex first talked the only idol she DATED, and she never told Grace about that before. 9:00 she said "No, I told you about the first time I got a number" but he was a different guy.
2. When did they date? She said in 9:06 "this was right before START A FIRE". So she is talking 2016, when her group was in a Hiatus. But she also said that she got his number during DEMONSTRATE era (november, 2015).
3. Now let's see the shows RaNia attended during those promotions and the male idols who were promoting the same day.
- 151105 | Mnet "M!Countdown" - BTOB, MONSTA X, UP10TION, N.FLYING
- 151113 | KBS "Music Bank" - VIXX, MONSTA X, BTOB, MADTOWN, N.FLYING, 24K, LU:KUS, HIGH4, ROMEO
- 151114 | MBC "Music Core" - MONSTA X, BTOB, VIXX, VAV, N.FLYING, MAP6, LU:KUS, ROMEO
- 151115 | SBS "Inkigayo" - BTOB, MADTOWN, ROMEO, N.FLYING, LU.KUS
- 151206 | MBC Music "Show Champion" - BTS, THE LEGEND, B.I.G, MADTOWN, SNUPER, ROYAL PIRATES, MAP6, VAV
- 151208 | SBS MTV "The Show" - BTS, B.A.P, FTISLAND, UP10TION, SEVENTEEN, MADTOWN, HALO, MAP6, ROYAL PIRATES
- 151212 | MBC "Music Core" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, MONSTA X, THE LEGEND, HALO, SNUPER, UP10TION, ROAD BOYZ
- 151219 | MBC "Music Core" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, MADTOWN, LU:KUS, MAP6, SNUPER.
- 151220 | SBS "Inkigayo" - BTS, EXO, B.A.P, UP10TION
4. I think I missed some shows on the list but they had no awards or they line-up was the same I pointed out in previous dates. Also, since Alex said 9:45 "I did know who he is" and because of Grace asked her if she knew who he was, I think he wasn't a big star at the time. But Grace question also makes sense because Alex is a foreigner, so maybe Grace thought Alex wasn't familiar with kpop idols, even if they were top stars. But since she knew who they were, it was NOT a rookie group, because it takes long to remember the names of the rookies. And well, MONSTA X, SEVENTEEN, UP10TION and many others on that list, were rookies at the time (2015).
5. But then at 10:55 Grace asked "are they still promoting?" and Alex did a little pause (very short) so I guess the group hasn't disbanded but also, it's been a while since they last promoted (this video is from june 2019, keep that in mind). So it can't be BTS, EXO, SEVENTEEN or MONSTA X because they are basically global kpop stars at the moment, doing tours and leading the industry. B.A.P is a little tricky, because they terminated their contract on early 2019 but we don't know if they disbanded (but I think they did, actually, because they had major issues with their company) so I would say BTOB and VIXX are the big candidates.
6. Since Alex said she started dating him in 2016 "right before START A FIRE", they had a relationship that went for a few months. But then she said they broke up because "promotions started for him" and well, BTOB had a comeback in march 2017 and VIXX in may 2017.
7. So I guess it could be any member of VIXX or BTOB, but since Alex is a 89lines I would guess she dated someone close to her age, so I think BTOB EunKwang (90line), BTOB MinHyuk (90line), BTOB ChangSub (91line), BTOB HyunSik (92line), VIXX N (90line), VIXX Leo (90line), VIXX Ken (92line). But this is just my guess...
8. Lastly, she said the first time she received a number it was also during "DEMONSTRATE" era and her manager "was in love with him", so maybe he was someone very famous but even so, Alex didn't know him... so the guy she dated must have been really popular, and the guy who have him the number less popular, but still popular enough to be Rania's manager crush.
9. It's really hard to say. Personally I think she dated a BTOB member and someone from VIXX gave her the number, in this case not necessarily someone close to her age. Maybe Ravi? Because he was making news back then so maybe that's why the manager said "YES, OF COURSE I KNOW HIM".
Woah sis/bro u researched thoroughly....appreciate it
Damn at this point become an FBI 😭😭😭😭
I was like "wow, kinda interesting that no one made a research on who were promoting at the same time as her to see who was the lucky guy that she date" and then i saw this lol, thank you, i was so curious about it xd
dam girl, you did your research. thank you tho. it was very helpful.
Wow!!! Im hoping its btob my babesss . Haha just because i hope they are living their life...
I wish she would have touched on what the situations were like for hair and makeup. Did stylists ever have a hard time with her curly hair? Did she have to bring her own complexion makeup? Were the MUAs skilled enough to apply eye shadow to her big hooded eyes? Did she ever have to do her own makeup? I'm curious.
She's a little darker than the other idols and there are tanned koreans like Jessi so I'm pretty sure she didn't have a problem with makeup and her hair is wavy, other koreans have that type of hair too. I think you can use the same products that you use for straight hair for that
@@Zonnyzone96 apparently they didnt give her clothes, make up and hairstylist. She had to do all that on her own. Not sure if that's all too true
Some of the Miss A members are tanned.
yess ...... i wanna know toooo
I used to do some modelling in South Korea a couple of years ago, so I can guess how she was treated based on my experience. When the MUAs are aware that there will be a black girl in the shooting, they always have at least one shade of dark brown foundation that they mix with a dark beige one until the color matches the skintone of the model. For the hair, I had real hair extensions back then so most of the time they would either curl or straighten it depending on what the look for the photo shoot or video had to be. Since Alex's hair seems to be "thin" (I don't know how to say that properly in English), I'm guessing that doing her hair before she went on stage wasn't that complicated. That being said, some MUAs don't bother when they are not given any particular directions. I wouldn't be surprised if Alex had to do everything on her own, I'm pretty sure that some Korean idols are in the same situation sometimes
BP Rania was one of my favourite groups and I was so curious of what Alex was up to... and 100000% im SO excited for that girlgroup y’all talked about please do it
Same
yES YES YES
Suggi ❤
It's always the international fans that doesn't like an non Asian in kpop
Halo Queen honestly I think it’s cause they are koreaboos who have asian fetisashes like recently because of the plus(bighit and source music) auditions there have been so many people saying omg I’m going to audition who arnt even asian
jhobiseok see that’s how it should go and honestly I support you but there’s going to be fans who will start to hate on you because your doing what they want to do
I think it comes from people getting into KPop for the Asian culture or image of that
jhobiseok good luck with the audition !!! i hope you'll do great 😌💗

*Alex is talking about Seulji (Zi.U) that helped her out in the group, she left the group now as well*
Why do you think it's her and not someone else?

Following the discovery that every remaining member of the group had removed "RaNia" from their social media accounts and that the company had unfollowed some of the members, rumours began to circulate that DR Music as a company had gone bankrupt and was unable to continue operations, resulting in an unofficial disbandment.[
(Source: Wikipedia)
The Wikipedia article is a little off on that part, Jieun never removed RaNia from hers and Hyeme and Jieun are the only members who still appear in DR Music's practice room. The bankruptcy part is heavily rumored but Ttabo left late last year and Zi.U, apparently, left earlier this year though no one knows about Namfon yet. Either way, if we see RaNia again, I assume it will be mostly new members...

It’s hard to get in the Koreans circle if you’re not korean. I used to work in a korean company and although majority are nice and respectful but they have an invisible boundary. It’s like they don’t share anything personal or want to get to know you as a “closer” friend. They would say nice things to be respectful but may not mean it in their hearts. It’s just my two cents don’t hate me. I guess every culture, race is different so I’m ok.
Asians in general are like that, here in Brazil their communities are kinda isolated even though our culture is very welcoming to foreigners.
As an Asian girl, that’s the exact thing I felt and experienced when I was studying abroad in the US. People there were kind in general, but I felt like there is a wall made of glass right in front of me whenever I am in a meeting like a group discussion. Also, there was a moment when students had to form a group for a project throughout the whole semester, but back then nobody didn’t let me in the group. They literally ignored me. So ultimately I had to drop out of that class because I couldn’t find a group to belong to.

im so glad to see she's doing ok. i remember when they announce and African American girl was joining a kpop group. i pray she didn't have to go racism, and discrimination. i even cheer Rania on because of her.
thanks Grace for shading light on the behind stories.
Rania’s company is a real real real mess
Like they announce they’re going to comeback in June 2018 and then suddenly the Chinese member Ttabo left as well and then they added a Thai member who’s a 01-liner and thenthey say they are going to comeback soon and then that’s it
They just add members whoever they like and just don’t think of the consequences
It’s kind of weird they have such a weird contract lol the members just keep leaving after 1/2 comebacks and new members just keep being added without even thinking
Tbh the biggest tea I wanted to know is has she ever got paid 😭😭😂with this whole mess of the company I felt like they never ever gained profit loll
Ps I always knew Rania was free to date anyone as I knew one of the members just married a ToppDogg member lol
Pps just checked on wiki they got married because they had a son and right after they had a son they separted...omg what a mess
Whoa
Im pretty sure they are into shady things since the ceo knows yg. Remember he profuced style. I think he uses the group as a way to hide the shady things they di
Yeah the toppdogg thing, I read about it and I was so sad they separated, I only knew they had gotten married and had a son but then I was looking through the profiles and it mentioned them splitting up
@@BuzzBunnyTTV they probably had sex unprotected since sex education is pretty inexistent in South Korea, she got pregnant and they married before the baby was born because having a child out of marriage is not well-considered in South Korea.

She'll probably never get a chance, but if she did an interview with Tasha from Skarf and Idol School that would be great, cuz that girl must have a lot to say, from being a trainee for several years, getting to debut in the first group with Singaporean idols, to disbanding quickly, going back to a trainee and then participating in Mnet's Idol School and ultimately giving up on the kpop life

Alex is so fun.. I'm glad that she's so positive about her experience. Get well soon, girl.
I'm crazyyyy for these "insider's confidential report" from the person who really experienced that 😍😍😍
Omg she’s so pretty 💕 I remember those eras. And just confirmed that idols date more than they say they do 😂
Omg I saw the both of you at KCON last year and I remember when Alex was on stage, she pulled Grace up to the stage to do a freestyle. It was so lit! And I'm so glad that you both are still friends! I would fully support if you ladies had a KPOP group. ❤
14:41 when Alex talked about the thing that someone said to her that hurt her before, hurt me right now as well. As a kpop fan, tbh, one of the reasons why I support my idols is bcs I know they've sacrificed a lot to debut bcs being a trainee is like survival of the fittest. And debuting as an idol doesn't mean that you're going to live a life fulk of luxury. Kpop idols are idols because they are passionate enough to do it, it's their dream and not just bcs they dont have anything good to do or what. PS. I hope you're doing good now, Alex :))
What sucks is she joined a really crappy company too :( But glad she had some good experiences! Can't wait to read the book👀 and yes I will stan your girl group!!

omg the tea about dating makes me realize that there’s probably sooo many idols that date each other or at least hook up
Yàss 👀
Ofc there is. Just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean they don't. I'm pretty sure they do it a hell lot. They're just very good at hiding 😂
Yes a lot of people talk about them in shows and I don't remember who she was but one idol said that there's probably 10 idol couples right now lol
I love Alex like I remember reading the essay she wrote about getting into Kpop and I always appreciated her since then bc she really understood why Kpop works esp fan engagement wise. She rly is such a good voice to have in Kpop (and I can’t wait for her book) and I wish she would promote again (make a group omg).
She deserved a better debut experience than like being added to an already established group & essentially being thrown to the wolves.
This interview was great and I’m gonna resist being nosy in figuring out who she’s dated/got numbers from lol
Why is Alex dressed differently to all the other members of her group?
Cause their management treated her like a publicity stunt and kept her in the dark
soshi stars sadly, the only reason she debuted was to be a publicity stunt she deserved better.
I believe those clothes are her clothes I think she said they didn't give her clothes so she had to wear her clothes and her own make up.
They always had excuses as to why they didn’t have an outfit for her, but there was one show where she was matching with the group. Only one show though, she always had to wear her own clothes
I was just thinking about Alex yesterday!! Her dancing brought sm to the group

@@ReptilianTeaDrinker me too also hello somniaa
InSomniaArmyCheshire MooMooReveluvMeU The British Korean population is extremely small compared to the American/Canadian or Australian population... there are about 2 million east Asian people in the UK compared to American where there’s about 16 million Asian people in the US (not sure how many of those American Asians are East Asian because it doesn’t specify). But that’s probably a big reason why you won’t see as many British Kpop idols as American
@@oooglit4655

I meant Korea American as in style. Like fifth Harmony meets BlackPink or Little Mix (I know they aren't American) meets Twice; a merge between K-Pop and American pop it's what I meant

Well, I support ur dream 💗💗
sooo... some male idols that performed on the same days as rania performed “demonstrate” : bts, vixx, monsta x, btob, ikon, exo, up10tion, madtown, b.a.p, the legend, map6, vav, halo, b.i.g, snuper, road boyz, romeo, lu:kus 🤪 might’ve missed some
yeosangel it’s definitely B.A.P because she did say that they stop talking because he was having a situation with his company which is the law suit time I think bap had a hard time
yeosangel Im thinking it was someone from BAP,MonstaX or Madtown orrr Ikon....cuz the groups seem kinda well know. From how they was talking. Meh idk lol but I was trying to think ahahah
number 2 : this had probably started around May-June , as the 3 last original members left by the end of may.
number 3 : His group was probably not promoting either right before "start a fire " which was released on december 30th 2016 , that minus 2 months of preparation would've given them from june-november (unless they were on and off)
number 4: He's not the leader but famous enough that Alex knew him ? and his English is not good.
yeosangel ahhh also I don’t think BAP because she said that the group he was in was still promoting and together.
MONSTA X i hope

When people say that being an idol is for the guys and girls who don't have anything to do with their life. Namjoon from BTS has an iq of 148 and with his skills he would easily go to a university, get a degree and job.

I heard somewhere that Shownu and I think Kihyun have degrees as well. Dont know who the jealous bastard that said that is, but they had me messed up

@@dondon9734 thats so cool
I honestly have so much respect for Alex, it just sucks that she wasn't treated like the other artists despite putting in the work for it. Like if a company wants you and then you train like any Korean trainee would, and the domestic K-Pop fandom accepts you then like it just sucks to see that go.
What I don't understand is why she had to go back to the US and they would just phone her to bring her back for promos? Like that's such a messy way to manage a group, if you look at other foreign trainees they don't mention going back they usually just mention not being able to go home.
I was wondering the same thing, why would they made her leave only to miss the important parts?
