" K-pop is not just a music genre, but an entire production system in which pop idols and their music are carefully planned out and released into the market, " Kim said.

“K-pop不仅仅是一种音乐类型，而是一个完整的生产系统，在这个系统中，偶像歌手和他们的音乐被精心策划并投放市场。”

" These days, pop idol groups make two to three singles or extended play discs a year, but many Western pop musicians or established Kpop groups, such as Blackpink, release one album every one or two years, "

“最近，偶像团体每年发行2 ~ 3张单曲或延长播放唱片，但像Blackpink这样在西方流行的歌手或知名的K-pop组合每1 ~ 2年发行一张专辑。”

An even more important verdict could come soon from America's Supreme Court in a case involving the transformation of copyrighted images of Prince, a pop idol, by the late Andy Warhol, an artist.

美国最高法院可能很快会对一个涉及对已故艺术家安迪·沃霍尔 (Andy Warhol) 受版权保护的流行偶像普林斯 (Prince) 图像进行改造的案件做出更重要的判决。
