I'm your host, Elise Hu.

I have been counting down the days until I could share this talk with you because it is from comedian and rock star Charlene Kay, who took

to the TED stage in a brilliantly shiny silver jumpsuit to break down a truly global phenomenon for us.

It's part musical, part dance performance, part comedy, part how to guide for becoming a K-pop superstar.

All I can say is enjoy.

That was Charlene Kaye speaking at TED Next 2025.
