It is a little ironic that you say they're not required to give sexual favours and say right after that they're just like models, another industry where that is very very common.

But KPop is Korean and corporatised.

It's not like 'modelling' or 'acting'.

The bands are run by organized machines.

Hollywood/Music/Modelling are industries of individuals, sometimes coming together for productions, entire segments of the industry never work in classically professional environments.

Given how fundamentally exploitative the KPop industry is, whether or not the exploitation is also sexual is not particularly important to me personally. The industry is unhealthy for the people that participate in it and it should not exist in it's current form.
