In the part three of the podcast's K-Pop Deep Dive, we discuss the inadequacies of the K-Pop industry specifically as it pertains to underage idols and talents. In particular, we shed light onto the lyrics of Park Ji Yoon's "Adult Ceremony," question the age of new girl group "IVE," and argue that trainees are mistreated and perhaps shouldn't debut until they're older.
