Is it wrong that I only listen to dead Japanese idols because....it adds a chilling experience when I listen to them?

Yukiko Okada is my favorite, after this performance, she jumped off The Sun Music building.

>Okada with a slashed wrist in her gas-filled Tokyo apartment, crouching in a closet and sobbing. Two hours later, the singer jumped to her death from the seven-story Sun Music Agency building. The reason for the suicide is still unknown. Her untimely death resulted in many copycat suicides soon christened with the neologism "Yukko Syndrome" for copycat suicides in Japan.

Man, she really wanted to die.

Idoling in Japan is incredibly cutthroat. You basically have to pretend to be a completely different (fake) person 24 hours a day, and you're forced to do degrading things in order to advance a career that will last only a few years at best. It's hardly a surprise that some of them would kill themselves.

That's actually probably accurate.
Idols aren't a natural talent, idols are manufactured - it's not like there's only one particular girl that can fit a given role, and even with how hard they have to work it's not like there's a shortage of candidates.
So to rise above the competition and gain fame in the first place, you have to be willing to pay the price.

Though I'd imagine that that's limited to the beginning of their career - not because popular idols gain respect or much control over their career, but rather because it would be bad if it leaked out somehow. Particularly in the modern information era.
Also, think about it - why would any idol, an attractive woman that could easily get a job as a secretary or some other shit that requires cute face and good presence, go into porn after finishing her career - if she's not already used to selling her body for money, that is?

There's you answer. It's not like she dislikes having sex. Why not get money for it? and use her dwindling fame to her advantage to sell more videos. Being an idol itself is selling your body and looks. porn is just a gravure shoot where you get laid.

It seems that Yukiko's mental health had been in serious decline.

Which caused her to jump off the roof of the Sun Music Building and her brains all over the pavement.

Her fans started to do the same, which became known for the "Yukko syndrome" and 1986 began the highest suicide rate for Japan.

Yeah, I doubt that. It's most likely an official statement meant to hide the fact that fame doesn't come cheap wherever you are.

Remember that famous Korean woman (she was a singer or an actress, can't remember her name) who killed herself some months ago because she couldn't take the degrading things she was asked to do? It's the same thing.

Most likely the person who found her didn't allow her to leave their sight, so they took her to the only place they could (the Sun Music building) because, logically, there are more people who can keep an eye on her there and look out for her, and her our apartment was filled with gas.

>> No.7916669

>>7916240
No, if logic applied she would have been taken to the nearest hospital with a psychiatric ward and she would have been comitted.
Logic didn't apply, the need to save face did, the need to try to keep anyone outside the company from finding out what she had done and the state she was in.

Why didn't her parents put a full investigation about why she committed suicide?

>> No.7918355

>>7918306

I believe her parents weren't exactly thinking of her best interests, there's another theory that she killed herself because her parents pressured her badly to be an idol, so they could be very rich. So add that and the fact that she could have been molested and abused by the Sun Music staff.

I remember they tried to make these rumors about her suicide being based on her mental health and being turned down by a grown man, but those turned out to be completely false.

If her mental health was that bad, she wouldn't be able to perform at all and companies aren't going to risk their business with an idol with mental issues. Idols could not have ANY boyfriends/girlfriends and the staff made sure of that.. Since Yukiko's booty was theirs for the taking

Japanese idols make more money. A lot of the problems in Korea stem from the fact that they rarely pull a profit.

Somehow hoped for more.

That was just the management saying "We don't make any money because of piracy" + "The contracts for idols have gotten alot longer, so they know what they are signing up for (olololo)".
