I studied business and work in FP&A (financial planning and analysis) and have worked for a lot of big public companies so am very used to the shit show behind closed doors especially when it comes to financials. Jobs at Korean kpop companies are typically known to be low paying, lots of overtime, demanding environments, and other general toxic stuff about Korean work environments. It’s also typically seen as a place to get experience and then people move on to higher paying places. Tbh a kpop fan working there might actually lose their interest after seeing the shit behind the scenes.
I know I could never be a kpop idol but I am curious about what goes on in these companies. About what ridiculous ideas they have or how departments react when “scandals” happen. While it would be interesting to work in FP&A for an industry I actually like, I can only imagine how stressful it is. Album sales not meeting target? Go find ways to sell more like do more fansigns or fan calls or more exclusive cute photocards.
