I'm rating in terms of stalking convenience:

3. SM - you can't really stalk cos you hardly see anyone coming in and out of the building. Also the buildings just too simple. We actually mistook it for some boring office bldg..
2. YG - We waited for 3 hours outside YG. Although it was worth it since we saw the Kwon Twins and Papa YG himself, but we had to wait outside the convenience store in the cold. And there weren't even benches to sit on.
1. JYP - It was the best stalking experience ever!!! We saw 2pm and Nickhun even smiled at us! The best part was we didn't have to wait that long. We were there for a few minutes and there they were. Also there's a Dunkin Donut right in front of the bdlg.

Come on! All of these companies are corrupt!

Please google "SM Entertainment and slave contracts." Or "SM Entertainment payola". These K-pop companies are unbelievably corrupt and treat their preformers worse than cattle.

Every Asian knows that many of these companies are thoroughly disreputable.

There are rumors in Asia that Korean performers must sleep with executives etc. to get into groups.

Dave, why didn't you please ask these performers whether they were forced to sign slave contracts. Other performers for SM Entertainment had to......

One of the most famous bands was Super Junior from SM - one Chinese member left the group and escaped to China to avoid a long
term slave contract in which he received little money and through which he was overworked.

SM is not the only bad Korean company. In 2010 Korea was rocked by the Wonder Girls scandal.

Please google: "Korea Herald Wonder Girls Mistreated" or "Korea Herald JYP admits Wonder Girls lack insurance".

Two of these girls dropped out of high school to live without health insurance in illegal rooms in New York (which the city shut down
because they were dangerous to human life). One left the group (probably due to emotional problems due to her stay in the US) and was
replaced by another girl who dropped out of high school.

If you do a search engine search of: JYP admits Wonder Girls lack insurance, you'll see they entered the country illegally. Why aren't they in jail?

They lied to enter the country and violated visa laws by working here while pretending to be students. Hello Homeland Security - you are not upset by this?

Basically many of these K-pop companies are completely lawless. I think it is wrong to promote any of them in the USA.

Let these entertainment companies clean up their act if they want to make it in America.

People do not buy clothing from sweatshops - they should not buy K-pop from companies that are so bad to their performers.
