How can one determine if a K-pop star is truly talented? Why do some people assume that all K-pop stars are equally talented solely based on their fame without any evidence?

Work in the K-pop industry is a joint effort of idols, producers, choreographers, stylists, composers, public relations team and a lot of other personnel who work behind the scenes. Everything so that a group of young people can have a presentation that lives up to what the public expects.
Thank you for reading.
It's not that doing the latter is bad, not at all, it's just that the fact that an idol is a composer and producer gives their songs a plus that songs from external producers do not have. The first are artists, the second are singers, period.

There are many idols who enjoy a lot of fame and recognition from fans, but do not deserve it, either because of their actions or because of their lack of values and principles. Knowing how to sing and look handsome does not make you a good person, and for better or worse this is also part of the "talent" of a human being. In the K-pop industry there are countless surprisingly hypocritical idols.
It's like when someone is a bad person, sooner or later the true colors of a human being come to light through small behaviors. In the end everyone will realize what someone is like, you just have to let time act.
The settings for their music videos are "out of this world."
Everything an idol does or doesn't do is criticized by fans. This is why idols should strive to improve their talents and strengthen their weak areas.

“Lack of talent is like flatulence, you can try to hide it all you want, but people will realize THAT IT is there. hahaha! Yes, I know it's a grotesque simile, but in this case it applies.
Now, the k-pop genre is one of the most demanding musical genres that exist. And it's not just about the type of music, but the environment in which it is produced (the industry as such and the consumers). With the above I am not implying that making K-pop music is easy, because it is not. From the lyrics to the instrumental they involve hard work.
And that's not the only thing. K-pop fans can be terribly intrusive. They go to the point of criticizing not only if their favorite gained weight or if their voice went out of tune in a live performance. The worst thing is that they spare no effort to make the idol realize what the fans didn't like.

I'm going to put it this way:
Now, every year there are countless K-pop groups that debut. Debuting is the “easy” part of the path, the really complicated thing is staying current over time.
Now, to cover the second question.

Fame in K-pop may seem like an indicator of talent, but it IS NOT.
Also, the k-pop industry is terribly competitive. Every year each entertainment company debuts at least 3 or 4 idol groups.
Stage presence and a pleasant personality are necessary. Idols must also be a certain height above average and a weight below what a normal person would have. Also the faces, whether male or female, must be angelic and attractive with certain parameters that make both men and women look like standard plastic dolls. A kind of Barbie's and Ken's that for a few features seem different.

If after a while these boys and girls do not receive the attention that the record label expects, the group is disbanded by the label's management. How is this measured? MONEY. If there is no audience, there is no income.

An idol must not only have a pretty and pleasant voice that captivates the public, but the industry and the public demand an almost perfect appearance that few people have naturally.

People understand what they want to understand.
I know very few idols who are able to compose their own songs and I know of many idols who turn to outside composers and producers to get songs so they can just sing them.
A K-pop group that doesn't receive support, no matter how talented its members are, doesn't last in the industry.

Obviously a person can improve their dancing, rapping or singing skills. That is something that idols do for a long time before debuting and if they wish, they follow arduous training to avoid being the object of cruel criticism.
If you're a K-pop fan, no matter what your favorite group or soloist is, you know the outfits are off the charts.
