Brazilian news website unfolds which topics are forbidden in interviews with kpop artists

Future music plans isn't controversial though?

It is probably the most relevant question on the list for recording artists

kpop interviews often feel boring, insincere, rehearsed and robotic

they don’t know their future music plans

Kpop interviews are like shoujo mangas where they constantly repeat inspirational phrases kkkk, like "we love music" we love our fans" we are happy" "the future is bright" and many more. It's sad, especially BP, as I think they are intelligent and genuine about their love about music, future plans and fans.

Even future music plans? Really YG? How controlling

Well this seems standard in all Korean TV really, not just with idols, so not talking about it even outside SK is just follow their own broadcast protocols out of habit.

However, for YG it seems not talking about "Future music plans" is his number 1 priority

Of course they know, the future plans are planned like 6 months to 1 year before being released. The problem is that companies always try to use "hype" and don't let them freely talk about it.

I was reading the interview earlier today

It seems like I was reading the same answers multiple times lol

They mostly talked about loving Brazil, loving brazilian blinks, wanting come to Brazil etc

Nothing new, why would we want to know about what their political or religious views are. Dating questions is off limits to almost all Korean idols lol. And future music is probably something they want to keep a surpise. Or yes they just don't know yet, typical YG not planning ahead

I think it's better if they don't talk about some subjects because we all know how people are sensitive now, if they say something wrong they are 'canceled', so better avoid scandals for a simple interview

That's nothing new. Celebrities here have topics that they don't talk about.

So, why make interviews?

Dunno, ask the magazine company why they continue with the interview despite knowing they can only ask basic questions?

It's an interview with pop magazine not with oprah. They can just talk about their fans, what they think of Brazil, what they wish to achieve, which is pretty much what they asked lol

This is standard fare for celeb interviews. Actual or potentially controversial topics are blacklisted. For kpop it especially makes sense because companies want their groups to be as neutral and accessible to fans as possible.
