[quote=Anonymous]I sort of got into the whole concept with BTS and I'm pretty sure I either read some longer piece online or watched a documentary where it really got into how these groups are basically scouted, recruited isolated and trained up from even their tween years. It's quite the thing in some places.

My brother lives in a foreign country where all of his kids were basically tested as preschoolers and assigned to schools based on their aptitudes. One of my nieces went to a school that specialized in foreign languages and a nephew was "assigned" by age 5 to a musical education.

Kind of like how it was truly a "Miracle on Ice" for a bunch of American college students who had never before been teammates was able to win in the 1980 Olympics against a team of soviet hockey players who had been known mates since single digit ages, and that training had informed their entire lives.

One of the fatal flaws of that soviet system was probably that they almost never competed beyond their own closed territory and became complacent.

Anyway ... the opposite is true of K-Pop, they are superior[/quote]
