Lim Kim Interview: From Kpop Idol to Breaking Asian Stereotypes

[dior-chic.livejournal.com]

Summary: Charli at Asian Boss interviews Lim Kim! They discuss how in kpop, even though in simple terms it means ‘Korean Pop’, kpop has a very specific look and sound. That people follow kpop for the ‘fantasy’, and why she wanted to separate herself from that and create her own music that reflects her artistry. Her experience as an Asian woman has a lot of influence in her current music, and she wants to reach fans who have shared similar experiences. They also talk about her inspiration for her current choreography, crowdfunding, and at the end she meets with loyal fans who were inspired by her taking a different path in her music.

It’s really worth a watch, especially if you’re a Lim Kim fan like me :)
