WATCHA releases trailer for Fill In The Blank, the K-pop idol documentary

From the trailer dropped by WATCHA on their YouTube channel, it is evident that the documentary is not just a reveal of the hardships and struggles of the four K-pop idols off-camera. Instead, it also takes a deeper dive into the lives of these idols and the perspective they have of themselves.

Here's what the description of the trailer, titled "The Journey of the 4 K-pop idols to the Last Place", puts forth about the documentary, Fill In the Blank:

"Not as an idol on stage, the times when I looked back for myself. Would you like to listen to their stories that are scary, serious but sometimes comforting and uplifting? Please come to Fill In The Blank, premiering on Tuesday, January 3rd at 00:00."

It further states:

"This program was produced with the support of the Broadcasting and Communications Fund of the Ministry of Science, Technology, Information and Communications."

The documentary consists of a total of four episodes, with each episode concentrating on a K-pop idol and running for about 43 minutes and 45 seconds. The first episode will feature ATEEZ Woyoung, who will be followed by LESSERAFIM Kim Chaewon appearing in the second episode. The third and fourth episodes will have The Boyz Q and Oh My Girl Hyojung respectively.

The trailer also revealed a part of the experiment that the four K-pop idols will be undertaking. The experiment revolves around the idea that modern, highly-materialized life, in any case, can be explained by nine objects. In the documentary, the four idols will try to reflect on what these nine objects are in their lives.

The documentary can also be expected to showcase how the young idols carry the burden of being in the spotlight at all times.

It also hints that the four idols Q, Wooyoung, Kim Chaewon, and Hyojung, will dive into a journey of determining their self-identity in order to grasp at a clearer idea of who they are as a person, a journey that is otherwise hard to navigate while being a popular persona.

What makes Fill In The Blank a particularly unique and intriguing documentary is that all the participants come from groups that are remarkably different from one another. When four idols who aren't even under the same company and lead completely different lives come together to reflect on who they are, it's very likely to result in an intriguing watch.

Most K-pop documentaries usually revolve around separate K-pop groups, exposing how they engage with each other as a team, and showcasing how they overcome their highs and lows together.

Given that it's rare to see individual members appearing on variety shows and interviews without their group, the production of an entire documentary of four different idols from separate K-pop groups has excited fans.
