We need to talk about the new bill passed about children labor in Korea, basically most minor groups won't be able to perform and promote weekly like most of adult groups. 

 

They reduced their hours of works and they also raised the conditions of work which are now are going to be not only regulated but also inspected legally.

and that's good but i'm sure companies will find a way to work around it :celestial5:

I doubt it'll do much but maybe it's a step towards ending 13 yr old debuts

Honestly, nothing is gonna changed because if anything it will restrict them to go on variety shows because they take like 5 - 6 hours to filmed and idols rarely get invitations anyway. Idols spend most of their time training or rehearsing and, also I read that going on music show doesn’t count because they don’t get pay which will have no effect. Fan meet, concerts already under the hours.

I'm excited for le sserafim, they put the bar too high with antifragile, I hope the new song is a bop.

Death @ not paying your idols being a valid way to skirt child labour laws

 

Do you think YG pays their 13 year old trainees for the time they spend on camera in the bathroom?

Curious to see how they implemented. Surely the agencies will find any possible loophole to get through.

They don't need to work around it because the law is irrelevant to today's industry, and the substantial changes that have happened just in the past decade both in terms of protections and expectations on the part of more and more parents who see becoming a celebrity as a legitimate career choice in today's world. 

 

Remember, this whole thing came about as a kickback to Lee Seunggi after he helped campaign for some politicians, the law is more relevant to when he was a child entertainer, but that was nearly 30 years ago.

 

Thankfully there is no limitation to how hard kids can prepare for their school entrance exams, so that constant source of anxiety and depression will remain humming over there.
