Agree. I mean it' still a young age but I think many idols who debut with 15/16 are missing something.
I've seen a lot of idols talk about how they didn't have much of their youth, either in passing or directly. You have to remember that these idols debut at 15 or 16, but of course they also had a training period before that, which in most cases goes 2-3 years. So that means school, training, school, training. You can't speak of youth there.
While many don't say it, I do believe that some do regret it.
With an official debut age of 18, these idols would still be young, but would have had more of their childhood. Above all, I think that at 18 you already have more of an idea of what you want for the future than you do at 15.
Since I doubt that such a thing is feasible, I hope at least that at some point there will be more laws for the protection of such young idols.
What you say is right. I don't know who said it, but either a director of YG, SM or JYP once said that trainees are much more teachable at that age.
This is such a debatable topic. I agree with you to some extends but still they spend their youth in the right environment where it guarantees them works, talents, capabilities and many more opportunities in the entertainment industry. I am so glad that they spent their youth on training which is something that could potentially build them as a person rather than something that could really damage their future. Many young people nowadays spend their youths on drinking, consuming and gamblings. Training make them who they are today, if not they could be entirely different person from what we know now.

period, let's just cut the bs.
Parents must force them not to debut, it's impossible not to be sexualized in this industry and from now on I will not directly support any idol under the age of 18. And let's not forget how overworked these minors are going to be. Kpop companies are just feeding pedophiles this way by debuting minors.
Instead of demanding useless things from companies why can't kpop stans unit together and stop this from happening again in the future.
I believe there is a certain rule in entertainment industry which allows minors or young people to be working (if they wish) for limited hours and they even have curfew rule (on and off time, bedtimes etc.) that constantly being applied for those group of people. Apart of being sexualized which i had no idea about, in term of their working hours and capabilities, there is not much concern.

Ning Ning of Aespa, considering she already proves herself before her debut in the singing competition and in My SMT as well.

I am talking as if the contracts renewal couldn't achieve next year, it's hard for me determine their individual success since they didnt have those opportunities early on. On the other hands, if they renew their contracts for a few year and demand JYP give them individual spotlight, they might thrive and be successful. It is up to JYP.

JYP. Twice is his last legendary group. I know Itzy and Stray Kids are popular, and Day6 will be stalwart talented moneymakers until their contract is up, but none of them have or will have the same impact as Twice.
As far as Twice - no, not all of them will be able to maintain their current popularity especially if they "go on hiatus" and split up, but 2 or 3 of them could pull a Taeyeon.
not sure what u meant by 'could pull a Taeyeon', considering Taeyeon started working on her individual activities since her debut (being MC, hosting her on radio DJ, Theatre, Variety show as well as her OST). But most Twice members dont really have those opportunities. IMHO, i just hope they renew their contracts once it ends because I dont see them succeed on their own individually.

Next Level and Weekend are such fighters despite being shorten in promotions and all these new releases.
