Il riassunto After initially sweeping through Asia, Korean pop music has now taken the world by storm led by the likes of SNSD, JYP and PSY. Take a look behind the scenes of the formation and debut of the 9 member girl group, Nine Muses, in a documentary that gives a glaring insight into the world of K-pop. Follow a year long journey with the Model Idols, as they have been called, and their management label, the relatively small in stature Star Empire, leading up to the group’s debut and emergence in the K-pop charts. Covering everything from dance lessons, recording sessions and the physical and psychological toll on the girls, the film reveals the lengths the girls must go to achieve their dream, to become K-Idols.

Il commento Documentario su un’oscura band di K-Pop, le eponime 9 muses. Non me ne vogliano i fan del K-Pop, ma, in quest’orgia di plastica, ho trovato che la cosa più interessante del film fosse non riuscire a capire fino a che punto l’occhio del regista fosse finto tanto quanto le ragazze, cioè quanto quelle lacrime, quello stress, fossero programmato come tutto il resto.
