XG is all Japanese members trained in Japan and Korea. Both systems XG was trained in. AVEX CEO Kuroiwa and Simon the producer wanted them not only be fluent in Japanese, but in English and Korean. The plan is to promote XG in Korea and globally. They wanted more Japanese artists be recognized. It is on the interview with AVEX billboard article online.
Yes, XG was trained on Japan and Korea. Simon Jakops and AVEX CEO Kuroiwa wanted XG to be a globally group and wanted promote them from Korea first and then globally. Billboard article: We didn’t want to make them a J-pop or K-pop group, but instead create an all-new genre, X-Pop. The members of the group had a lot of different ideas about what language the lyrics should be in. Some said that since the members are Japanese, they should sing in Japanese, but ultimately they came to the conclusion that since they’d be targeting the global market, including the Korean market, English would be best. None of the members are native speakers, so we really focused on pronunciation from the very start of their artist development.
@@knkweb wow. I’m impressed that none of them are native English speakers, or at least second language English speakers. They really have the pronunciations down pat.
@@CantbemiiReacts same here I’m very impressed. XGALX was established already in Japan, since 2017. Under the parent company AVEX. AVEX management wanted XG to be fluent in English and Korean, not just their native language Japanese.

XG is in a league of their own. No one is doing it like them. Their talent, charisma & stage presence is off the scale.

Great reaction!🫶
Although a Japanese group with global aims, XG did train in Korea and promotes in the Korean music system, so yes they had to learn Korean
