Music Producer Sparks Speculations With Negative Experience Meeting Top Star At Idol-Studded Party
Recently, he shared another video with an experience of working with a female idol.
@lefauxreal I barely held it together!! What would you have done? I’ve learned in my years working in kpop and music that there are some pretty out there people in this world. But since moving up in that world and coming to Seoul, I have way less of these types of experiences although there’s the occasional diva ofc. Trying not to become the diva myself 😂 let’s stop generational diva trauma #kpop
In the video, Alex explained that this story was about the “worst person ever,” describing the female idol as “petty.”
“I spent years of my life working my way up in the K-Pop industry just for the first idol I ever get in the studio with to be the worst person ever, and I mean petty on a level I’ve never seen before.
She shows up at the studio, won’t do introductions herself, her assistant manager person does that. And then she won’t hold eye contact with any of us, avoids our gaze at every turn and won’t speak to us, obviously either.
So, we’re about to go jump into the actual studio, but she goes into the lounge, sits on the sofa, pulls up her phone and the assistant person’s like, ‘So she’ll come check in when you guys have something.’ I’m like okay, weird. I thought you’d wanna be involved in the process but whatever.”

He explained that three hours later, he thought they had something good and called in the manager and idol. Yet, they didn’t seem to want to make it easy, as Alex explained that the idol needed a specific chair.
Then they say, ‘We can’t listen yet, she hasn’t got somewhere to sit to be able to relax and get into the song.’ So I pull up this little chair I have and she looks at it like, ‘I’m not sitting on that,’ so the assistant is like, ‘Is there a chance to get a more comfortable chair perhaps?’

He then revealed that he had acquired an office chair, but she still didn’t seem to like it. When the assistant asked for something more comfortable, he went to the CEO’s office to retrieve the comfiest chair, which was located on the fourth floor. She then sat comfortably. Yet, Alex explained that the aftermath was just as bad.
When the idol listened to the track, she seemed to dismiss it as he revealed she said, “‘Mmmm, stop, I don’t like it,’ and just stormed out of the room.” Although there were many days left, he said it was fine because there was the thought of getting paid, but this didn’t happen.
She never released the album, it never happened, and was never going to happen. It was all just a waste of time.
— Alex
Alex revealed that he recently went out with one of her bandmates, and it appeared to be no one-off, suggesting she had had a similar experience with others. He mentioned he worked with her member, and she immediately said, “I’m so sorry, I can only imagine what that experience was like.”
Unsurprisingly, Alex once again sparked speculations about the identity of the female idol.
