I love K-pop, but I do get confused by idols and how they want to either censor or not show themselves because of how they will look to the public. Now, I’m not talking about serious reasons. Those, I somewhat get. I mean the more causal and confusing points. I mainly watch a lot of girl K-pop groups and I have noticed how they cannot for reasons unknown, be on camera if they have no make up or no contact lenses or they must have a jacket over their shirt or tank top.
I have seen these same idols wear hair rollers, face masks, and even caked on makeup for laughs but the idea of not wearing makeup, no filter, or no contacts is horrific.
The need for modesty but they can dance sexually and wear outfits that reveal much more than what they wear to swimming pools or pajamas or workout outfits. The need to hide tattoos or cuss yet they can grind each other or even dance almost like they are strippers. They MUST have a blanket over their lap when they sit in interviews because of the shorts or skirt is too short yet the company allows them to be worn while they dance.
This is by no way a hate, negative, or disrespectful in any way, but a lot of the rules or actions seem to contradict a lot of what they allow. Can anyone explain the rationale of the rules because it makes no sense to me?
