🌲 semi hiatus .

It’s been brought to our attention that GWSN was recently featured in a Dutch documentary about K-pop (Ewout & de Keiharde K-pop Wereld). However, this documentary was incredibly misinformed and rude, especially to GWSN. The producer/interviewer, Ewout Genemans, attended a GWSN fansign and asked extremely intrusive questions to the girls such as “Have you done plastic surgery?” and made the girls very uncomfortable (keep in mind the only english speaking member in GWSN is a minor, Lena, being only 17 and today is her birthday). 

Furthermore, Ewout pressured them into answering his questions, and forced them to talk when they were trying to talk to fans during the fansign. These clips are incredibly uncomfortable and demeaning to the girls. 

Furthermore, the documentary makes sweeping generalizations about K-pop, saying that all idols are depressed and used SHINee’s Jonghyun as an example with footage from his funeral as justification for why K-pop is “bad.” The central topic of the documentary, however, is a dutch girl trying to become a K-pop idol, and yet it is littered with these lies and disturbing footage. 

We ask that you please join us in taking action against this disrespectful and ill-informed documentary by emailing Kiwipop (GWSN’s company) and stations that air this documentary.
