Uhm, I disagree. Maybe it's better if she promote her Japanese/English albums in Korea(since she's fluent in both languages). South Korea themselves is killing their own music industry. IMHO. And please don't hate me, I'am also a Kpop fan. I listen to Kpop when I'm in a good mood and whenever I've got a hyper feeling. But recently, I mean this year, Korea's music industry has been in chaos. They're waaay too crowded with several Idol groups and its getting sicker and sicker everyday. Plus, the recent attack of Korean groups trying to make it in the Japanese market is silly. They should've just leave Jpop alone since their forte is Kpop. Some of them creates good Jpop songs somehow (ex: BoA, Se7en, Tohoshinki and Big Bang) but Korean artists should not overcrowd Japan.

Also, Kpop is in demand because of the catchy music and cute dancing idols. But the music itself is dying, most of the newly released kpop songs has silly lyrics too. Only the old ones are good. As time flies, Kpop is slowly dying. Whereas in Jpop, you have a variety of music. Other genres are alive. Yes they have girl and boy groups but the rock scene is there, the solo artists are active, ballad, hip-hop & rap. That's why Jpop never fail to amuse me. And Jpop netizens aren't that bold and harsh as Kpop netizens nowadays.
