Kasper Becoming a YouTuber
Kasper’s first appearance to the public was through YouTube. She started a YouTube channel named “KASPER 캐스퍼” on February 10th, 2010. She has also been sharing some contents with channel “WishTrendTV” where she talks about the Korean entertainment industry and the life in it. In one of her series, called KPOP 101, she shares about many K-Pop stories. One of her videos tells about the private auditions and another tells about the public auditions.
Unfortunately, on her own channel, she made almost all videos in Korean without any English subtitles so it might be difficult to understand for international fans even though there are also a few with English subs. She used to upload videos of her favorite songs but we can’t find videos ahead from 2014. The first video in 2014 was uploaded on January 22nd. It’s a track which she wrote with rapper Lepe. You can check the video below.

Her other kinds of videos are covers of other artists’ songs. She has made some cover videos some of which are of Korean artists and others of international ones.
Sometimes, she shares her own thoughts about social issues like stereotypes, plastic surgery, and others.
Up until now, her most recent video was uploaded on July 24th, 2019. It looks like she is having a Q&A with a doctor. Unfortunately, it was again all in Korean without any English subtitles.
