That's a good point, the US might just be sucking all the culturally relevant output out of the country.

I think Australia imports too much American culture. So we want to participate in the same culture. So the stars try and get work in Hollywood.

At least singers participating in K Pop bands is within the region.

It’s too bad because Australia produces some really good stuff and most of it never gets the attention it deserves, not even from Australians.
