YG's Netflix show 'YG Electronics' faces criticisms

Article: 'YG Electronics', fans enraged by excessive self-diss... "Mocking the artists?"

Source: Star Today via Nate

1. [+1977, -39] So there's been no YG celebrity who completed active military service ever since YG was established in the 1998? Lee Chan Hyuk will be the first one to do so ㅋㅋ

2. [+1072, -21] What the hell is YG doing... This isn't going anywhere.

3. [+1042, -20] Yang Hyun Suk must've been desperate ㅋㅋ

4. [+93, -1] YG is going reckless now. This isn't even an agency, it's a pharmacy. They don't even write songs for Lee Hi anymore. No wonder why Gummy moved to CJ and she's doing even better with OSTs. The male celebrities always get sick for some reason and then serve in the public service. Do they not know how things work these days? Celebrities do well after completing their military service, come back with good projects, and promote without controversies. They must be full of idiots.

5. [+72, -3] Seungri is overdoing it. Instead, he should've enlisted with the hyungs and then have a group comeback. I don't know why he's doing this.

1. [+587, -12] YG must think this is cool but it's not trendy at all. These days, making sexual jokes or insulting others' looks can get you into big trouble. Eun Jiwon's part was also too much.

2. [+264, -10] You can't just use and mock artists who didn't even appear on the show. I can't believe they're doing things that hateful commenters and antis would do in their self-produced show. They need to edit Eun Jiwon's part out before it gets spread.

3. [+229, -3] Where are their manners for their artists? Do they think it's cool to make insults under the excuse of black comedy? Can the producers be sued for this? Before suing the hateful commenters, they should get rid of their inside enemies.

4. [+198, -5] This article is spot on. Insulting and mocking their own artists and calling it a B-level variety show is too much. I'm very disappointed with YG.

5. [+122, -5] The show isn't funny at all...

YG uses BTS to media-play Blackpink?

Pann: YG media-plays that BTS charted on the billboard by SNS and Blackpink charted on the billboard by music quality

1. [+627, -10] If you can chart on the billboard by SNS, I should be charted too since I'm on SNS a lot.

2. [+554, -4] They can just talk about Blackpink charting on the billboard, why mention BTS....

3. [+534, -6] If all of BTS' achievements are done by SNS, then you don't have to make music and just use SNS to chart on the billboard and advance into AMA!

4. [+287, -4] "You guys are the one that benefited from the media, hahahaha" - BTS' Airplane pt.2

5. [+273, -5] So funny, does Yang Hyun Suk have something against BTS? ㅋㅋㅋ On Blackpink's Spotify profile, they introduce Blackpink and mention BTS. There are Blackpink ads in BTS' Fake Love MV. He's trying to ride on BTS' popularity ㅋㅋㅋㅋ And he's doing dirty media-play, too. He overstates Blackpink's MV views and understates BTS' views and writes articles. And now we also have this stupid article ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Why won't he leave BTS alone? YG is so annoying.

Pann: Yang boss is so frustrating

1. [+235, -2] He must've been refreshing Youtube every second to post it as soon as the views reached 10M.

2. [+220, -4] It gives me goosebumps ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yang boss is so frustrating ㅋㅋㅋㅋ He even discriminates his own boy groups. Not just the groups, but he also discriminates the members, too ㅋㅋ

3. [+159, -3] Result-obsessed bug ㅋㅋ

4. [+123, -1] He calls Kang Seungyoon 7080-style and BI says in an interview that it's his fault. I can tell how he's scolding the artists by results ㅋㅋ Hyun Suk-ah, stop being on your phone and make some plans ^^

5. [+117, -2] Result-obsessed bug indeed. Since Winner's Really Really and iKON's Love Scenario, his treatment towards them changed completely ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+94, -0] He was a "kid" in Seo Taeji and the Kids and yet he discriminates his artists a lot ㅋㅋㅋㅋ His artists are much better-looking and talented than him. He cages them in his own treasure box and only lets them promote on Inkigayo. How are they supposed to gain more fans from that? It's important to be exposed when you're a rookie artist. He thinks his artists are at Bigbang level.

7. [+86, -2] The only flaw of stanning Winner is that the artists have to work under Yang boss. The fans are suffocating so much, I can't imagine how it's like for Winner. I'm sure all YG fans feel the same ㅋㅋ He doesn't even treat them nicely but he changes his attitude when an artist get good results. Because of the result-obsessed bug, the fans are struggling a lot.

8. [+71, -0] I can see how jealous he becomes when non-YG artists do well. Yang boss is only a businessman. Blackpink is doing very well but they're still only a few years old, he's only pressuring them by doing this. He's a boss and yet he's acting like that ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Usually, only composers and staffs would spam posts like that and be happy.

Actress Lim Ye Jin says she's been having no work since she joined YG

Kim Soo Mi: She's been having no work for 2 years!
Lim Ye Jin: It's because my agency treasures me so much
MC: Why did you hesitate to sign with YG at first?
Lim Ye Jin: The contract of my previous agency was like 10 pages. Because the contract was so long, I was delaying to sign with an agency. But Yang Hyun Suk was a huge fan of me and sent me a lot of love calls, so I signed with his agency.

Pann: Lim Ye Jin says she's been having no work for 2 years since she joined YG

1. [+148, -1] It looks like the company has no system. Yang Hyun Suk is hopeless tsk tsk.

2. [+120, -1] If you're capable, the best solution is to avoid Yang Hyun Suk.

3. [+103, -1] How can the artists have no work at all? People need to dig into this, I'm curious to death. Is it that hard to make a schedule?

4. [+65, -0] Twice has so many schedules that the fans are demanding JYP to stop with the schedules but YG is letting Blackpink rot even though the group has a lot of potentials. The company isn't doing this for their health, they're just really lazy. The mysterious concept is so old, why are they still doing this?

5. [+53, -0] Lee Jong Suk left YG as soon as his contract expired.

6. [+36, -0] YG became a major company because of Bigbang. Their system is worse than small companies ㅋㅋㅋ Only their title is a major company.

7. [+32, -0] I'm starting to question if they're really a major company... What's the point of having big stocks when the artists can't even have work?
