Melody Cheng, Helen Wu-Wang, and Janet Wang are the co-creators of AsianBossGirl, a multimedia company for the modern day Asian-American woman. AsianBossGirl was founded to share their experiences as 9-to-5 professional working women, balancing careers, social lives, cultural identities, and personal development while living in the city of Los Angeles. What started as a passion project podcast has turned into a multi-media business that they now run full-time. On their platforms, you’ll find conversations about the nuanced experience of being an Asian American woman navigating the corporate world as a person of color, mental and emotional health as children of immigrants, interviews with inspiring Asian women (and men), and even blind dates recorded on the mic. Their mission is to make everyday Asian-American women feel heard, seen, and connected.

episode 209: Has NewJeans Cracked a New Formula for Success?
“I got no time to lose / 내 길었던 하루 / 난 보고 싶어 / ra-ta-ta-ta…” are the lyrics that have been stuck in our heads ever since we discovered NewJeans, a 5-member Korean girl group that has infiltrated our playlists with their bright and youthful vibes. After their debut in July of 2022, NewJeans quickly skyrocketed to fame. Nowadays, their dance challenges and songs like “Hype Boy” and “OMG” are seen/heard all across TikTok. Even if you’re not a fan of the group, it’s hard not to have heard of them! So what makes this new girl group so popular, and how are they different from other K-Pop groups?
On today’s episode, we give a brief overview of NewJeans’ career so far, how we discovered them, and particular aspects of their music and background that could have contributed to their success.
