Kpop is one of the Fastest Growing segments of the music industry. Teen heartthrobs are playing out to sold out arenas and even stadiums and scoring millions of downloads and album sales. But its not all flashbulbs and fawning fans. Kpop has a darker side as well. Ramy inocencio has the story from south korea. Reporter kpop, korean pop music is a worldwide phenomenon. From heartthrob boy bands like bts to girl groups like black cape, its a multibillion industry that dazzles. But the apparent suicides of two female kpop stars in less than two months have revealed a darker side. First in october, 25yearold choi gin ri known as sully. Then in november, her close friend, 28yearold ku hara. Together they amassed millions of views on their music videos. But despite their international fame, both women were longtime targets of Cyber Bullying. In kpop, perfection is a must, in discipline, performance, and in looks. If you arent under a certain weight, you can definitely get cut. Reporter no one understands that better than kpop artist amber liu says there is an expectation in the industry to be perfect. Youll told what to do, what to say, what to think. Reporter she was a former fan and friend. She said she can see what Cyber Bullying can take. When they hear youre getting help, theyre what . Why are you getting help . Thats weird. And that stigma against Mental Health is so strong. Reporter theres a nationwide Mental Health crisis in south korea where the subject is still taboo and there is limited resources for those seeking help. According to the world health organization, south korea has one of the highest suicide rates of any country. Nearly double the u. S. Sully, who died in october, was an outspoken Mental Health activist and feminist, an anomaly in the industry. Aging is yet another stress. Kpop stars already have a short shelf life. Retirement age is 30, if not earlier. And young rising idols like alexandria christine snyderman, stage name alexa can add to that. Thats why theyre called idols, because theyre put on this pedestal of untouchable perfection in the publics eyes, in the consumers eyes. Reporter the 22yearold koreanamerican from tulsa, oklahoma debuted her first single bomb in october. 9. 5 million youtube views and rising. The music video took two days to film, two days to film, 24 hours each day almost. Reporter wow. You were up filming, dancing, retaking for 24 hours . Yes. With like six costume changes, six or seven set changes. And whenever im performing, i always get this adrenaline rush. Reporter in two days cbs news followed alexas busy schedule from hair and make upton a late night filming of a christmas video for social media. I myself have struggled with selfconfidence for years. And finding the capability to love myself. But i have recently stumbled upon that. Reporter south Korean Society is slow to change there, but is hope. After sullys death in october, the Korea Entertainment Management Association announced its plans to try and stop cyber violence, saying it will root out malicious commenters online and seek to have them punished. Why cant you see its killing us reporter liu thinks thats a good start. She says sometimes she thinks about why she is still in the business, but keeps going for her friends who are now gone. I feel like the easiest thing that we all can do, everybody can do is just try to be kind when your vneck looks more like a uneck. Thats when you know, its halfwashed. Downy helps prevent stretching by conditioning fibers, so clothes look newer, longer. Downy and its done. Ordinary tissues burn when theo blows. So dad bought puffs plus lotion, and rescued his nose. New puffs have more lotion. And soothing softness to relieve. A nose in need, deserves puffs, indeed. All right. Heres a question for you. How far would you go to create your own adult cocktail . Would you go picking weeds in denmark . Seth doane did just that. Reporter were on the hunt, foraging for new flavors, searching for something unexpected. Wow. Reporter wow, its really strong. And finding plenty of contenders at this organic farm in denmark. Actually, a beautiful field of white asparagus. Reporter as a chef, Lars Williams has some experience pushing culinary boundaries, but hes not simply searching for a new garnish. Rather, he is trying to totally reimagine not food, but alcohol. You dont think of going into a bar and wanting to order Something Like this. Not yet. Reporter we met at sorens farm where they wondered if this beach crest might provide a peppery finish infused in an alcoholic beverage. How different is it to think about food and alcohol . The difference is being able to create a flavor and then preserve it in the alcohol and then compose the dish in the same way we compose a dish of food, but composing it in the bottle. Reporter williams, from new york city, came to denmark ten years ago where he climbed to the pinnacle of the food world as the head of research and development at the famed nomo restaurant in copenhagen. Thats where he met his now Business Partner mark hermanson. What do you take from the best restaurant in the world . That nothing is impossible. Reporter that sentiment, nothing is impossible, pushed them to leave nomo two and a half years ago to start empirical spirits, a sort of Mad Scientist laboratory of distillation where they asked the question if agave can become tequila, and juniper berries can flavor jbegin, what other spiris are yet to be discovered . Youre trying to take some of your lessons from nomo and stick it in a bottle . Essentially. Taking that approach of very focused, very rigorous craft and apply it into something that you can spread to a lot more people than 40 people in a dining room. What do you call these . Baby combs . Reporter their quest not just to preserve the individual ingredients, but to bottle the essence of a place has taken them to zimbabwe, brazil, mexico, and this beach on the danish coast. Smell the seaweed, thats something you can invoke and i think is always like very stirring to people somehow. Reporter you want to captures the flavors of the sea in a way . Yeah, exactly. Reporter here we meet up with xenia samuelson, a fulltime forager for clients, including nomo. He showed the delicate beach blooms and pinecones that might be instilled into a oneofakind spirit. Try it. Its pretty incredible. And then well just break one. Reporter wow. You think this is alcohol . Yeah. We should booze it. Reporter booze it. So these are traditional fermenters. Reporter that happens in the giant stills at empirical spirits. They operate at unusually low temperature, instead of the typical high heat, which can destroy the delicate flavors along the way. This is kind of like a giant science experiment. In a lot of ways. I mean in a lot of way, this is what the inside of my head looks like. Reporter he built some of the machines himself, incorporating a range of brewing and distillation techniques from around the world. Its where he tested blending those pinecones. And the beach pansies. How many do you try versus how many actually work . Whats the percentage of error . As high as possible, really. If youre not putting yourself out on a limb, then youre never going to do something new. Were also trying to show that alcohol can be more than a gin and tonic at the end of a hard work day, because its such an amazing vehicle for capturing and preserving flavor that it has a lot of potential that were just sort of scraping the surface on. Reporter all of that testing and the unique ingredients mean the finished product comes at a price, upwards of 70 a bottle, mostly sold to highend bars and restaurants or direct to consumers who are drawn to something unusual. Shall we give this a shot . Lets do it. Am i supposed to cheers. Skoal. Reporter we tried one flavored with quince. Wow. This would be tclosest to a gin. Another juniper wood. Then we moved on to the plastic containers, works in progress. This one made of distilled jerusalem artichoke. Oh, thats nice. I like that one. I might advance it from the plastic. Reporter spurred on by the challenge of trying to create something you never knew you were missing. Yeah. I think this one has legs. Reporter for me, this is my favorite of all finally this half hour, the heartwarming story of a young man who is on a mission to brighten the lives of kids who cant see colors. Michelle miller has the story. Reporter when 11yearold tate reminger slipped on a pair of these special glasses, his reaction said it all. It changed just everything looks different. Reporter the glasses are designed to bring color into a drab world. They allow the colorblind to see the vivid hues theyve been missing. I just like to see what everybody else sees. Reporter tate can do that now thanks in part to seventh grader Jonathan Jones and his mom carol. Theyre all yours. Reporter back in november, jonathan got the chance to try out these glasses as part of his science collapsed. And when the video of his tearful reaction to seeing colors went viral, offers to help started pouring in. So many people, both people we knew and people wed never heard from in our lives were reaching out to us and sending me dms, asking me to give money towards jonathans glasses. Reporter jonathans family eset up a gofundme page not to pay for his glasses, but to buy a pair for another child. They asked for 350. Before we went to bed that night, we were at a thousand dollars. And were currently at 32. 32. Reporter thats right. Jonathan and his family raised nearly 100 times more than they had asked, over 32,000. And when the company that makes the glasses enchroma heard about it, they committed to match the donation, which can provide at least 130 pairs more. I wear these glasses 24 7 because, you know, color is amazing. Reporter so on a cold morning just before christmas in cottonwood, minnesota, a small group of kids gathered in the gym at the Lakeview School to get thei glasses, enabling them to see color for the first time like 9yearold brendan carols. Amazing, and its also really a new experience for me to see the actual colors to things. And its just really nice to see that other people can see that too. Oh my god reporter watching other people discover color for the first time. Holy crap this is what you see . Yeah. Reporter is an emotional exrience of its own.
