Sorry this video is long! It was my first YT vid and I was trying to be detailed lol - sorry I rambled~ 💖 FAQ What’s my job? (Non-teaching job in korea) - bit.ly/3aeNl6x Where do I live? (Korean apartment tour) - bit.ly/2kJK1Hk Where am I from? - bit.ly/2xzc7hz
When I heard that YG Building was a dark place, i thought man this must be my dream company. I actually love dark places. I find comfort in the dark. Dark not meaning black out.
I'm sure the darkness thing is for picture taking. since it is so dark in that room, you wouldn't be able to take pictures unless you use flash and when you use the flash it is easy to notice and you will get kicked out isn't this to keep the artists safe
N. J. she worked on the WINNER project in 2012 Winner debuted in 2014 win who's next was in 2013 so they already knew who's gonna be the next from team A and Team B all of that was a show !! correct me if I get it wrong please
See-Ham HF it was obviously all programmed that's why they made winner look like it was their last chance and said that ikon were still young and could have other opportunities (aka mix and match) even tho the year difference between winner and iKON it's like 2 or 3 years
What a lucky girl!!! Really congrats for ur experience and thanks for sharing it! I will always believe that YG is the best label, no matter what happen
I've always been such strong YG Stan because I personally believe that it is one of the few companies that truly value and appreciate the personality of the people thay work for them like who they are themselves and support that aspect rather than something else and your experience from beginning to end just further strengthened thag belief you're so lucky to get to have such an amazing experience and I'm glad you enjoyed :) good luck for everything the future has to bring ^_^
This video kept popping up in my recommendations list but I'd been putting off watching it because I thought it would be annoying to listen to, but you are literally one of the most pleasant people I've ever watched on RUclips! I can see why your personality got you an internship ^^
wow thank you!!!! I was hoping I wouldnt come off like I was bragging^^ I genuinely just wanted to share my experience cause i thought it was really unique. Thanks so much!!!!
You succeeded!! Yeah I know how you feel, it would be difficult to not seem like you were bragging about something like this lol, but you did a great job, I didn't get that sense at all!
I love YG artists most esp. 2ne1 because I'm a certified Blackjack. I super love them & I miss them so much. My bias is Dara. I hope they'll have a comeback soon. I think YG is so slow in having comebacks for their artists. Good thing they always slay during such comebacks so the wait is worth it.
I think gangnam style blew up because its a dance and you know we love to dance. We love line dancing, trendy dances, all that and plus gangnam style was so fun to do and Psy was just so cool lol.
Jess Hedges At some point I knew this thing called "professionals". I'm pretty sure that they were taught to act a certain way to look more professional. But the way she worded it, "manufactured" gets me. And pretty sure most people can tell if someone's being fake or not.
wow thank you for sharing your experience! it's my dream to work for an entertainment company in korea as well. however i know basically nothing when it comes to speaking or writing korean. do you think that would be a major issue? :)
+Ira Kristelle Solidum Korean would definitely help if you want to work at a company in Korea as more than just an intern :) there are opportunities abroad though like working for MNet America, etc! Good luck!
so cool, so you're in the same team who came up with moonshot? 😭 you lived the life yg stans are dreaming of. 💕 i hope you'd get more opportunities in the future.
See there are only small admin teams etc in yg and some of yg stans and fandom inside yg demand tooooo much!!! this people are humans too yg is not sm and jyp that has lots of admin etc employees. thank you thank you very much for sharing your experience.
what do you mean small admin teams? jyp also have teams managament for every group, 2pm and got7 share the same team. idk if jyp really have lots of admin, employees but they opened some job recruitment a few months ago
I mean the people not devoted to just one team - the people who are responsible for the company as a whole (PR, partnerships, marketing, etc) Its a really, really small team. I don't include managers or personal group staff^^
That "We went to a lot of concert for FREE" part thoooo , let's make it bold, underlined, italic, and highlight, like yeah FREE ya knowww, like every fangirls dream 😂😂😂😂😂😂
cari cakes yeah it is! How lucky you are, I wish I could be an intership of YG too, it seems difficult yet fun to do, anyway I'm not ready to watch your entire videos because I need to put myself together before seeing the free concert stuff lol, anyway thanks for answering my comment 😁
thanks so much for making this video! im studying to work in the entertainment industry and hope to work over in korea, and this was some really good insite into a little slice of yg! super interesting and im thankful you shared! take care x
Wow! Nice video! The scary~~ YG building. I wonder what it would be like during halloween? I know that GD goes to NB2... but like... if they dressed the building up.. inside.. I feel it would be extremely scary.. mwahhahahah Siobhan
It sounds like a wonderful experience! I wish I wasn't so anxious about everything because doing something because "What th hey, why not?" just seems like it'd be great haha
I honestly don't know what came over me. I think this was one moment where I felt like I had literally nothing to lose so I just went for it. Usually I'm not like that^^
Not really a YG fan, like I used to be back in -12 and -13 maybe?, I'm also indifferent about it now but I've bumped into a lot of the YG managers - and I dunno if they're very different from the other YG staff, but they didn't have that aura going on - not the one you described at least. I'm not saying this to put anyone down, I don't actually know the people, but I've always had a good 'vibe'-radar and they just didn't click with it. They could also just have been very stressed everytime I met them I really dunno... But cool story anyway~ I'll check out part 2 as well.
I was kinda sunrise when i saw this on RUclips! It's really great to hear this experience from you Btw.. The last part scared me out of hell! My volume was at the loudest😰
You seem like so much fun! I'm so happy I found your videos because you give me hope about moving to Korea and actually making it haha. I hope to run into you one day!!
Thank you for posting this! You telling this story feels like we are just casually hanging out somewhere~ And I love the fact that you just did it with the "why not just try" mentality haha~ You have had some great internships! Really happy you got to experience this all!!
No, it was really nice! I can tell you it is way different from my point than you, as you actually have been talking to a camera haha! btw, what did you study? Or was that irrelevant to the internship?
I love the way you tell the story feels so casual and chill.You were lucky,I love working with people that are friendly and kind,it makes the working experience so much easier.Can't wait for your next video~!
heyy! Your experience was awesome i bet. Thank you for sharing it with us😘 i wanted to ask, do they make members of kpop bands they create act out the personalities you decide on our do they choose people who seem to have these traits?
Wow, that's cool to see a company as big as YG doing such a program. To also experience is great, seems laid back. As for me, if I was to go through the same thing - favourite artist at YG? A year ago would have been BIGBANG since they got me into KPop but now, Akdong Musician or Epik High
Thank you for sharing your experiences! If I knew about Kpop back in my college days, I would've loved to go to Korea and try out for an internship at YG and teach them a thing or two about proper PR and/or promotions of their artists.
It's so awesome to see your progress Cari 🌟 To think this was the start of everything is just amazing 💗 Thank you for everything, for just keeping it up , and being the sweetest person that you are 💖💖💖
YAY! It's so good to hear your experience and I'm so glad it was a wonderful experience! Was the application in Korean too? Did you get a Korean friend to help you and filled in the application in Korea or English? I can't wait for part 2!!!
wow, its really an awesome journey and video by you. And yg has always been my favourite company. Can you tell me on how i can get an internship placement at there too? Is there any way to apply? Hope to hear from you soon and thank you for the amazing video❤
ha! i've always had the feeling that the members' personalities are "made", not really their true self. every time i tell this to my friends they would think i'm crazy. i'm solely here for kpop because of their cinematography and visual design hahaha
yeah its not 100% of the time but kpop groups are a product and having multiple "types" in the group help more people fall in love and buy their stuff :/
cari cakes whee you replied! anyways, do they still have this YG idealist program? and do i have to be enrolled as Yonsei student to register? i've been dreaming of designing album pacakgings. kpop physical albums are one of the reason why i'm currently taking design for a degree hahaha
Watching this from 2017 and I'm quite sad. I mean since you mentioned they pretty much "manufactured" and WINNER was already decided even before the WIN program, I'm thinking was the crying of team b because they lost is scripted.. waaaah.. that blew my mind..
Julie Anne Alkuino This might be out of nowhere but if you're an iKONIC you'd see throught their tears during WIN. It was real, like all of their struggles in that entire survival show. But honestly i got sad on that manufactured thing too. Maybe it's just the image that they were told to portray in public.
wow that sounds like it was such a cool experience. sounds like something that would happen to me lol...filling out applications for the heck of it and then not knowing anything once i got hired but having a great time anyway lol! ...so cool.
I accidentally stumbled upon your video and I found it so interesting! For sure checking out part 2. I do have to say though that I couldn't stop thinking about you look almost exactly like the actress Rose Lesley! Esp. When you smile!
I think the best thing to come out of this video is how many new lookalikes i've gained hahaha so many cool redheads i've never heard about!!! thank you so much for watching^^
I am at the moment really searching for an internship in korea and you channel showed up somewhere along the lines. 😍i really love your story and hope that i can also have a great time there
This was so interesting~ Thank you for sharing :) Where exactly did you see the application notification? Might have missed it ^^ I'm a Korean girl born and raised in Austria but I'd love to live in Korea in the future and your experience was AMAZING!
I understand how some people can get upset by the fact that kpop groups basically are formed like factories but honestly i feel like the process of making them must be so fun! And it's not like we hate the kpop groups outcome. Obviously it works a pays off to do what companies do
Wow this is actually a great business strategy on yg entertainment. pretty much hiring this Cari cakes s a strategy of influencing English speaking counties particularly America
This sounds amazinggg!! I've always wanted to do an internship with an entertainment company, especially YG cause kind of a big fan lol. I never thought it was possible but this definitely sparked my hopes and dreams again. If you have any more information for how or where to apply I would appreciate it soooo much ! Also I love your other videos ! I was in Seoul last year and your videos make me miss being in Korea. Definitely need to plan another trip back ~
Thank you so much for watching! Right now I have no new news about the program, but I always keep tumblr updated^^ And I hope you're back in Korea soon!!!!
cari cakes I know it's a Long time from now but I have plans to attend summer school @ yonsei in 2018 tooooo! & your story inspired me so much! Feels like I'm overestimating myself but maybe I'll try to apply for their YG's internship as well hehe fingers crossed!
this sounds like the best job i could ever have ... ive seriously never been as interested in a job as this internship this sounds amazing & i hope i can get an opportunity like this
+Toomuchlaffing my friend works for woolim and was rejected from SM because she was a memeber of EXO's fan club HAHAHHAHHAA like so sad for her but also so funny
cari cakes wow! LOL that's so interesting to know! xD u'd probably have to delete all proof ur a fan of any artist from SM before getting in! which makes sense considering the... _intensity_ of some fans, they have to be careful o_O
thanks for sharing all this precious experience!! although i am a Taiwanese can't understand every each words If it has the subtitle would be totally great!but i'm willing listen to you talk more ! you are a great clearly speaker also very cute!! i really want to have a chance to work in yg i will prepare hard for it so sad that yg idealist isn't exist now wish i could get a opportunity one day!
I was really fascinated by this, you explained this really well!, btw I have a question in the making of building characters for each Boygroup members, how you guys do it? is the characters build based by look or based on their personality and you guys just kinda upgrade it?
+Jess jms thankyou! And yeah after hiring interns myself its definitely about the vibe. As long as theyre good people, you can teach them to work but you cant teach people to be good people haha
Omg you talk exactly like my sister lol. You from Georgia? Anyway, this was fun to watch. I remember being curious about the internship way back. Very informative, and I can't wait for part two!
the only korean song i heard since childhood was gangnam style lmao and since i didnt knew it was korean i also made my own lyrics (misheard lyrics)...that song is really famous among people in my country till now...and when i was into kpop i was really shocked to realize that gangnam style was also a kpop song...haha
I watched almost all of your videos and loveddd them. they were really helpful and gave me more hope to be honest. So happy & grateful to find you and your channel you're amazing and your personality is so cheerish and awesome :D .I have tons of Qs but i don't know if u see this or not. I really appreciate if you could answer me and help me to figure out this whole moving or finding a job thing tnx.
this was so cool. i wasn't looking to intern but was just looking up random info on korean entertainment companies because its the interent and i hace A.D.D lol I found this on accident but it was so super interesting! I wonder if it would be alot harder to get a job or intern there since they are pretty established now. I got curious after this video and tried to google the ideals program but couldn't find anything lol
woo glad you found me!!! the idealist program is done right now, but keep an eye out and they might have opportunities! i usually post any updates i find on my tumblr agingerwithaseoul.tumblr.com
cari cakes oh, it woud help if I listened properly lol. I just watched part 2 and you're really funny lol. I want to move too! I need adventure lol. You're very lucky to have had this experience!
Sorry this video is long! It was my first YT vid and I was trying to be detailed lol - sorry I rambled~
💖 FAQ
What’s my job? (Non-teaching job in korea) - bit.ly/3aeNl6x
Where do I live? (Korean apartment tour) - bit.ly/2kJK1Hk
Where am I from? - bit.ly/2xzc7hz
love long vid
damn i want to be an intern too
my favorite part of kpop is the marketing aspect. the detail is insane.
danielle hm c that's why I would love to work in a K-Pop agency
Are you in Korea ?
Ines in terms of marketing about a realease. I think people from North America could learn a lot. Very organised and methodic.
they hired from the positive chill vibe of the applications 😂😂 omg yg, i'm loving your hiring process
Oyy bianca! 😂😂
Kung pwede lang no? 😂
*"A LOT OF FREE CONCERTS"* damn girl
When I heard that YG Building was a dark place, i thought man this must be my dream company. I actually love dark places. I find comfort in the dark. Dark not meaning black out.
i can easily sleep esp during lunch hour. lol
ikr
Sameee
I'm sure the darkness thing is for picture taking. since it is so dark in that room, you wouldn't be able to take pictures unless you use flash and when you use the flash it is easy to notice and you will get kicked out
isn't this to keep the artists safe
Oh that's actually really smart, never thought of it like that
Shay yes army
Shay You do realize they have security and paparazzi aren't allowed inside right?
yeah but the people that are on the interview could be taking pictures
Wow, this means you were part of the team that made WINNER? Girl, thank you and I salute you 👏
N. J. she worked on the WINNER project in 2012 Winner debuted in 2014 win who's next was in 2013 so they already knew who's gonna be the next from team A and Team B all of that was a show !! correct me if I get it wrong please
WIN was basically a marketing strategy to publicize WINNER and iKON. I thought everyone knows it.
See-Ham HF it was obviously all programmed that's why they made winner look like it was their last chance and said that ikon were still young and could have other opportunities (aka mix and match) even tho the year difference between winner and iKON it's like 2 or 3 years
Wow this is very interesting, it give me more insight about how KPop industry work.
Thanks for watching :)
This is awesome. Makes YG seem even more better in terms of employment process. This really shows how YG is and why they're so unique in the industry.
And here we are 2 years ago YG news all over the place
What a lucky girl!!! Really congrats for ur experience and thanks for sharing it!
I will always believe that YG is the best label, no matter what happen
Still sure?
@@heloosh97 very much
I love that being an intern at Eat your Kimchi got you street cred at YG. 😍
+melodramatic7904 right?!! Haha
OMG you worked with Simon and Martina? LOL they are gorgeus!
Nice coz YG really come up with its own restaurant and make up brand
You must be the TOP TOP person to get into this company
nice.
*Seungri voice* TOP TOP TOP
it is great that internships found the idea of yg restaurant and makeup brand
omg it must be a really good experience😄😄😄 BTW I would like to know more about winner's part😂😂😂
I've always been such strong YG Stan because I personally believe that it is one of the few companies that truly value and appreciate the personality of the people thay work for them like who they are themselves and support that aspect rather than something else and your experience from beginning to end just further strengthened thag belief
you're so lucky to get to have such an amazing experience and I'm glad you enjoyed :) good luck for everything the future has to bring ^_^
Thank you so much!!!
How about now?
YG is one of the worst KPop companies there is 😂😂😂
Ever heard of Blackpink?
THE COMMENTS HERE LMAO
the manufactured idols are what I love about kpop 😂 they are not art creators, they are the art.
the second line, I like that thought
Unfortunately just an art not a Creator... creator create a lot of art and made a lot of fortune.....
I feel so happy to hear that they were asking questions about yourself like they're getting to know you! YG Family feels
This video kept popping up in my
recommendations list but I'd been putting off watching it because I thought it would be annoying to listen to, but you are literally one of the most pleasant people I've ever watched on RUclips! I can see why your personality got you an internship ^^
wow thank you!!!! I was hoping I wouldnt come off like I was bragging^^ I genuinely just wanted to share my experience cause i thought it was really unique. Thanks so much!!!!
You succeeded!! Yeah I know how you feel, it would be difficult to not seem like you were bragging about something like this lol, but you did a great job, I didn't get that sense at all!
thank you!!!
YG needs to hire more people so we don't have to wait ages for comebacks ugh ...talk more about WINNER please!! are you a fan?
I love Winner!
ME TOO 😂❤️
I love YG artists most esp. 2ne1 because I'm a certified Blackjack. I super love them & I miss them so much. My bias is Dara. I hope they'll have a comeback soon. I think YG is so slow in having comebacks for their artists. Good thing they always slay during such comebacks so the wait is worth it.
I think gangnam style blew up because its a dance and you know we love to dance. We love line dancing, trendy dances, all that and plus gangnam style was so fun to do and Psy was just so cool lol.
Stina M gagman 😂👌
alavmafandomss lmao creating new words and shit
Stina M lol cause we all know what dabbing has done to us
Miranda Feng lmao true
10:38 - 11:09 This is why I have trust Issues.
Bunni Bie that's why I question my existence.
Bunni Bie This honestly changed my view like damnnn
But I think that they still preserve their 'real' personality. They might've just added some for the "professionalism".
Bunni Bie did you not know this already?
Jess Hedges At some point I knew this thing called "professionals". I'm pretty sure that they were taught to act a certain way to look more professional. But the way she worded it, "manufactured" gets me. And pretty sure most people can tell if someone's being fake or not.
omg lol I saw your comment on my video and I follow you on tumblr didn't know you had a youtube channel
omg awesome!!! yeah i just started about a week ago^^
wow thank you for sharing your experience! it's my dream to work for an entertainment company in korea as well. however i know basically nothing when it comes to speaking or writing korean. do you think that would be a major issue? :)
+Ira Kristelle Solidum Korean would definitely help if you want to work at a company in Korea as more than just an intern :) there are opportunities abroad though like working for MNet America, etc! Good luck!
What an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing

Oh My God. working in YG is my dream and this video made me realize I need to study harder.

so cool, so you're in the same team who came up with moonshot? 😭 you lived the life yg stans are dreaming of. 💕 i hope you'd get more opportunities in the future.
Thank you hahaha I hope I get to do more in the future too!
See there are only small admin teams etc in yg and some of yg stans and fandom inside yg demand tooooo much!!! this people are humans too yg is not sm and jyp that has lots of admin etc employees. thank you thank you very much for sharing your experience.
what do you mean small admin teams? jyp also have teams managament for every group, 2pm and got7 share the same team. idk if jyp really have lots of admin, employees but they opened some job recruitment a few months ago

hahahah right?! totally wasnt expecting that as part of the internship!
cari cakes yeah it is! How lucky you are, I wish I could be an intership of YG too, it seems difficult yet fun to do, anyway I'm not ready to watch your entire videos because I need to put myself together before seeing the free concert stuff lol, anyway thanks for answering my comment 😁
Thanks for sharing! You're so sweet! I can clearly see why YG hired you 😊
+봄순수한 *blushes* thank you!!!!

Wow! Nice video!
The scary~~ YG building.
I wonder what it would be like during halloween? I know that GD goes to NB2... but like... if they dressed the building up.. inside.. I feel it would be extremely scary.. mwahhahahah
Siobhan
It sounds like a wonderful experience! I wish I wasn't so anxious about everything because doing something because "What th hey, why not?" just seems like it'd be great haha
I honestly don't know what came over me. I think this was one moment where I felt like I had literally nothing to lose so I just went for it. Usually I'm not like that^^
Haha, I know what you mean. I very rarely have moments like that, I used to have them more when I was younger, but they almost always turned out nice.
wow! that's cool ... cant wait to watch part 2 .. bout dara, and more story bout epik high too.. ^^
Thank youuuu!!!!
Omg this is my dream job tbh. I mean not just in YG but ugh this made me so happy. I cant wait to graduate and try this.
Thank you!! and good luck :D :D :D
cari cakes Btw are they still opening for internship?
Not currently, no :/
cari cakes If there is, can you inform me? 🙂 I honestly dont know where to look or find it.
for sure!
omg you are really lucky af you're mentor was the head of your fav band's team project!!!
Not really a YG fan, like I used to be back in -12 and -13 maybe?, I'm also indifferent about it now but I've bumped into a lot of the YG managers - and I dunno if they're very different from the other YG staff, but they didn't have that aura going on - not the one you described at least.

But cool story anyway~ I'll check out part 2 as well.
EmmylouBauer how do you bump into YG staff ???? I wanna knoooooow
NamiiCho, sometimes you're just in the right place at the right time. It's also easier if you live in Seoul~
I was kinda sunrise when i saw this on RUclips! It's really great to hear this experience from you
Btw.. The last part scared me out of hell! My volume was at the loudest😰
+Canny Chen SORRY HAHA
You seem like so much fun! I'm so happy I found your videos because you give me hope about moving to Korea and actually making it haha. I hope to run into you one day!!
Thank you so much! I hope you're in Seoul one day too~!! If you ever have questions about jobs/moving hit me up!
cari cakes I definitely will!! Thank you so much!
wow! so lucky! your timing is like literally goals ahahah. this project sounds so fun i hope YG opens up internships again soon~
Little bit late to the party... Thank you for sharing this! You were really at the right place at the right time... Still waiting on my luck lol!
Thank you for posting this! You telling this story feels like we are just casually hanging out somewhere~ And I love the fact that you just did it with the "why not just try" mentality haha~ You have had some great internships! Really happy you got to experience this all!!
Thank you and that's sort of what I was going for! I was scared it would be awkward with me just talking at the camera haha! Thanks again^^
No, it was really nice! I can tell you it is way different from my point than you, as you actually have been talking to a camera haha! btw, what did you study? Or was that irrelevant to the internship?
TiaChii I studied Communications and East Asian Studies but when I studied abroad I mainly focused on Asian Film and Philosophy^^
and thanks again~
Omg!! This is such an awesome experience, good for you. Sounds so much fun..
Thanks for watching! It really was a dream experience :D
wow so glad youtube suggested your video for me!! You're sooo lucky!!! Thanks for sharing this to us!!
+Yiwen Feng thanks for watching!!!!
I love the way you tell the story feels so casual and chill.You were lucky,I love working with people that are friendly and kind,it makes the working experience so much easier.Can't wait for your next video~!
I would love to work at a music company in Korea
Heyyy I'm gonna be an exchange student to yonsei uni next year!!!! So excited that I found your channel~~ it really helped me a lot~~!! Thank you
+Blair Jiang awesome!!! I also made a vid about my study abroad experience so i hope that helps too :) let me know if you have any questions!!!
heyy! Your experience was awesome i bet. Thank you for sharing it with us😘 i wanted to ask, do they make members of kpop bands they create act out the personalities you decide on our do they choose people who seem to have these traits?
Hanine El-rifai i was wondering this too :)
Definitely appreciate the Epik High love (althoug my favorite is from SM lol) :3
Sounds like a fun experience!
+APXIII2
Wow, that's cool to see a company as big as YG doing such a program.
To also experience is great, seems laid back.
As for me, if I was to go through the same thing - favourite artist at YG?
A year ago would have been BIGBANG since they got me into KPop but now, Akdong Musician or Epik High
Thank you for sharing your experiences! If I knew about Kpop back in my college days, I would've loved to go to Korea and try out for an internship at YG and teach them a thing or two about proper PR and/or promotions of their artists.
+i2ee Nei2 right?! Haha i dont think i helped too much but hopefully theyre improving hahhaha
It's so awesome to see your progress Cari 🌟
To think this was the start of everything is just amazing 💗
Thank you for everything, for just keeping it up , and being the sweetest person that you are 💖💖💖
you look exactly like Lindsey Stirling
I had to google who she was but i'll totally take that as a compliment!
Now that you said it, yaaass!
YAY! It's so good to hear your experience and I'm so glad it was a wonderful experience! Was the application in Korean too? Did you get a Korean friend to help you and filled in the application in Korea or English? I can't wait for part 2!!!
The application was all in English~ Thank you!!!
wow.. your storytelling makes it seem like I am experiencing it too..
yay i'm glad!! thank you!
I need you to elaborate more about what you mean by creating the group WINNER. PLEASE!!!!
Nonono I don't think we came up with WINNER at ALL but I just thought it was funny that our marketing plan was 99% WINNER's concept/marketing plan lol
Very Curious! With that being said, so did you guys came up with the "WIN: Who is Next" survival show with Winner as the winner?
Nope, that was totally made up by YG!
wow, its really an awesome journey and video by you. And yg has always been my favourite company. Can you tell me on how i can get an internship placement at there too? Is there any way to apply? Hope to hear from you soon and thank you for the amazing video❤
Right now the internship applications are closed unless you are fluent in Korean (or Japanese for their Japanese office) but I will keep you updated!
aww thank you so much

ha! i've always had the feeling that the members' personalities are "made", not really their true self. every time i tell this to my friends they would think i'm crazy. i'm solely here for kpop because of their cinematography and visual design hahaha
yeah its not 100% of the time but kpop groups are a product and having multiple "types" in the group help more people fall in love and buy their stuff :/
cari cakes whee you replied! anyways, do they still have this YG idealist program? and do i have to be enrolled as Yonsei student to register? i've been dreaming of designing album pacakgings. kpop physical albums are one of the reason why i'm currently taking design for a degree hahaha
They dont offer it anymore but it was open to everyone so if they do it again it shoudl be the same rules^^
Watching this from 2017 and I'm quite sad. I mean since you mentioned they pretty much "manufactured" and WINNER was already decided even before the WIN program, I'm thinking was the crying of team b because they lost is scripted.. waaaah.. that blew my mind..

I am at the moment really searching for an internship in korea and you channel showed up somewhere along the lines. 😍i really love your story and hope that i can also have a great time there
best of luck to you!!!
This was so interesting~ Thank you for sharing :) Where exactly did you see the application notification? Might have missed it ^^ I'm a Korean girl born and raised in Austria but I'd love to live in Korea in the future and your experience was AMAZING!
I found it on the ygidealist website which no longer exists but there is also yg-recruit.com I believe? good luck!
I understand how some people can get upset by the fact that kpop groups basically are formed like factories but honestly i feel like the process of making them must be so fun! And it's not like we hate the kpop groups outcome. Obviously it works a pays off to do what companies do
+Anne Dragon definitely!
I'd love to be an intern at YG :'D ♥
if they would ask me who's my favorite artist I would say IKON ❤
same here..!
This was amazing that you got to work in the kpop industry. So happy that you had worked with such positive people.
Wow this is so cool! So interesting to see where YG is now
thanks for uploading this video!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching~
Wow this is actually a great business strategy on yg entertainment. pretty much hiring this Cari cakes s a strategy of influencing English speaking counties particularly America
Wow, you used to work with YG as well. It looked like a very good and interesting event.😳✨
This sounds amazinggg!! I've always wanted to do an internship with an entertainment company, especially YG cause kind of a big fan lol. I never thought it was possible but this definitely sparked my hopes and dreams again. If you have any more information for how or where to apply I would appreciate it soooo much ! Also I love your other videos ! I was in Seoul last year and your videos make me miss being in Korea. Definitely need to plan another trip back ~
Thank you so much for watching! Right now I have no new news about the program, but I always keep tumblr updated^^ And I hope you're back in Korea soon!!!!
I'm SO glad you shared your story I enjoyed it soooo much!
yaaay!!! im glad :D:D
cari cakes I know it's a Long time from now but I have plans to attend summer school @ yonsei in 2018 tooooo! & your story inspired me so much! Feels like I'm overestimating myself but maybe I'll try to apply for their YG's internship as well hehe fingers crossed!
omg!!!! 2018 isnt that far ;) so excited for you!
omh that lizzie McGuire reference was gold and soo true! you lived a really big dream girl!
its 100% what it felt like hahahah especially this experience: ruclips.net/video/AlMtuL_A-Ck/видео.html
this sounds like the best job i could ever have ... ive seriously never been as interested in a job as this internship this sounds amazing & i hope i can get an opportunity like this
I would love if SM had an intern program. o_O I would die (as a fan)
+Toomuchlaffing my friend works for woolim and was rejected from SM because she was a memeber of EXO's fan club HAHAHHAHHAA like so sad for her but also so funny
cari cakes wow! LOL that's so interesting to know! xD u'd probably have to delete all proof ur a fan of any artist from SM before getting in! which makes sense considering the... _intensity_ of some fans, they have to be careful o_O
+Toomuchlaffing yeah!! But i know jellyfish hires their volunteers all the time so i guess SM is just extra sensitive haha
thanks for sharing all this precious experience!! although i am a Taiwanese can't understand every each words If it has the subtitle would be totally great!but i'm willing listen to you talk more ! you are a great clearly speaker also very cute!! i really want to have a chance to work in yg i will prepare hard for it
so sad that yg idealist isn't exist now wish i could get a opportunity one day!
Thank you so much for watching^^ Hopefully one day this will be subtitled~
I was really fascinated by this, you explained this really well!, btw I have a question in the making of building characters for each Boygroup members, how you guys do it? is the characters build based by look or based on their personality and you guys just kinda upgrade it?
Vibe casting might actually be effective hahahaha I'm happy for you
+Jess jms thankyou! And yeah after hiring interns myself its definitely about the vibe. As long as theyre good people, you can teach them to work but you cant teach people to be good people haha
Omg you talk exactly like my sister lol. You from Georgia? Anyway, this was fun to watch. I remember being curious about the internship way back. Very informative, and I can't wait for part two!
Haha I've actually never even been to Georgia >.< Thank you!!
I've always said how Kpop should incorporate spanish regeatton or music in general such as Shakira it would be so epic!!
RIGHT?!?!?!? I really need it to happen hahahhaha
Regaeton????? I'd rather kill myself
I'm from San Diego, I grew up on reggaeton hahahaha not that i'd consider Shakira reggaeton...
How did you communicate with the people there? Did you have to study Korean for this internship?
Awesooomeee!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for sharing
thanks for WATCHING!!!!
the only korean song i heard since childhood was gangnam style lmao and since i didnt knew it was korean i also made my own lyrics (misheard lyrics)...that song is really famous among people in my country till now...and when i was into kpop i was really shocked to realize that gangnam style was also a kpop song...haha
Is this internship still not available?
correct, still not running :/
Sounds like an amazing Adventure I'm glad you got to experience so much fun
+Serina Miranda thank you!!!
💙💙
I watched almost all of your videos and loveddd them. they were really helpful and gave me more hope to be honest. So happy & grateful to find you and your channel you're amazing and your personality is so cheerish and awesome :D .I have tons of Qs but i don't know if u see this or not. I really appreciate if you could answer me and help me to figure out this whole moving or finding a job thing tnx.
this was so cool. i wasn't looking to intern but was just looking up random info on korean entertainment companies because its the interent and i hace A.D.D lol I found this on accident but it was so super interesting! I wonder if it would be alot harder to get a job or intern there since they are pretty established now. I got curious after this video and tried to google the ideals program but couldn't find anything lol
woo glad you found me!!! the idealist program is done right now, but keep an eye out and they might have opportunities! i usually post any updates i find on my tumblr agingerwithaseoul.tumblr.com
cari cakes oh, it woud help if I listened properly lol. I just watched part 2 and you're really funny lol. I want to move too! I need adventure lol. You're very lucky to have had this experience!
Hahaha I hope you make it over here someday too^^ thank you!!!
Thanks for the video! Very informative. Hoping to apply for designer jobs in jyp or yg💪🏻
