You may remember Lana, the first Russian soloist to debut in the K-pop scene. Her debut sparked a significant debate— some claims that followed her career both before and after she stepped into the spotlight. Much of the discourse stemmed from her debuting as a foreign artist in a predominantly Korean industry back in 2019, with many audiences claiming that she was trying to appropriate the Korean culture. International K-pop fans were particularly vocal, with many demanding her exit from the scene solely based on her ethnicity and perceived intentions. But were these accusations valid? Did Lana really set out to "look Korean," as some claimed? The debate raised serious questions about foreigners in the K-Pop market, cultural identity, and what qualifies to be K-Pop. For years, Lana's side of the story has remained untold. There was little follow-up on the initial backlash, leaving many to wonder if the truth would ever come to light. Even if LANA had spoken out earlier, would anyone have believed her? Now, Lana has made a comeback with her new single "Circus" under a new label, and she is finally ready to clear the air. For the first time, she opens up about what really happened behind the scenes—the overwhelming hate, the subsequent impact on her mental health, and how she managed to cope during one of the darkest periods of her life. In this exclusive interview, Lana shares her candid thoughts and experiences, shedding light on the reality of being a foreign artist in K-pop. This is a story of resilience, truth, and the human cost of online hate. Tune in to hear Lana's side of the story, directly from the source. Don't miss this eye-opening conversation where Lana sets the record straight and shares her artistic and personal journey of growth and self-discovery. It's time to hear what really happened.
