They say I gaslighted NewJeans, but I want my kids to be smart, so I’m always honest with them. I tell them how to do their work well, how this industry operates. I tell them as closely to the truth as possible because I don’t want them to be shocked later. They need to learn about the world, but in a way that softens the blow. This industry isn’t a beautiful one. Ignorance isn’t bliss in this case. You need to know a bit to build resilience.

She said that her actions are done to protect the innocence of NewJeans, and keep them as the group that she envisioned.

One friend said, ‘You’re like a tiger mom.’ Another said it’s like I’ve sent my kids to an alternative school. Yeah, it feels like I’ve sent my kids to an alternative school. As this innocence ages, inevitably, it will get tainted. I want to shield them from it for as long as I can. Celebrities who start young lose that innocence faster once they taste money. So, they need to let moms handle the finances. They don’t even need to know how much they’re earning. Once they start realizing, it’s hard for them to live a normal life. If they get too used to it and start taking things for granted, that will be bad. When they lose a sense of reality, they will drift away from the team I envision.
