I love this AMA, thank you so much for doing this. For a Kpop fan, it's so rare to have an honest, down-to-earth perspective from a relatable insider from the industry. And I wish you success and happiness for the future, particularly with your jazz hop career. Anyway, I hope you're still taking questions.
I was wondering, with the use of English in Kpop lyrics, given your bilingual background, were there times where you had a laugh at bad use of the language? Do companies and producers employ people to vet or edit English lines in Kpop lyrics? Is the use of English nowadays more for the "cool" factor or as a way to engage with overseas fans and give them a point of reference?
Thanks again for doing this, and being all cool about things :)
