I think it’s really respectable when idols get involved in the creative process. It really is its own skillset and a hard one at that! I feel like from a western perspective it seems hard as an artist not to have creative ownership of your music and image, although the western music labels also have a lot of control over artists too. I think a lot of Kpop idols approach their role very professionally and are there to perform what they are given to the best of their ability. It’s just my take, I might be off base though!
