Even if she felt this way, I personally don't think that this should have been stated in an interview as they have worked with US and Japanese artists. Just because US and Japanese artists have a different work ethic than Korean artists doesn't make them any less passionate about their music. To be quite honest, people could also feel the same about Korean artists as they tend to have less control over their image and music (most of them don't write their own music and the companies they work for tend to determine their image) but even then, that wouldn't make them as a whole less passionate as the amount of passion a person has towards something is more of an individual thing than something that could be summarized about a whole country. Overall, the comment comes across as a bit snooty and insulting.
