Shaun's reps say they'll take actions against rumors + Paul Kim & Seungri's posts

Article: Shaun reps, "We're not criminals... Will take strong actions against malicious rumors"

Source: BizEnt via Nate

1. [+831, -20] Nilo's song rose rapidly which turned out to be a sajaegi. Moon Moon got popular by Contrail who turned out to be a hidden camera criminal ㅋㅋㅋ This too shall pass.

2. [+761, -25] Then why don't you hold a concert with the other singer? You have 700~800K listeners per day, so if you hold a concert, the ticketing will be no joke. You're not gonna sell 90 tickets like the other singer, are you?

3. [+719, -19] He's in the same company as Nilo ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Paul Kim posted on Instagram about this ㅋㅋ

4. [+75, -6] Yeah, make sure to catch malicious rumors and I look forward to your concert. You're not gonna cancel it like Nilo, are you?

5. [+66, -5] His company is a cooperating company of Nilo's! Nilo charted #1 for a long time but he couldn't sell his concert tickets. Does it make sense that a singer that the public loves gets ignored like that?

6. [+45, -2] Bullshit. I don't even know who he is. He has 500K listeners in the middle of the night? Even the fandoms of top groups can barely manage to do this. Why would I listen to him when I don't even know him? tsk tsk

Paul Kim: "They think it's legal because we leave their robbing."

=

Instiz: Paul Kim, "They think it's legal because we forgive their robbing."

- The singers must be really upset... Ugh...

- Are you watching, Jang Nilshon?

- Paul Kim's songs are really good. They're on a different level from the sajaegis.

(Seungri posted a promotion post for Shaun's song and then deleted it later)

=

Instiz: Bigbang Seungri deletes his Instagram post

- I stopped wanting to support Shaun after he thanked on people for his chart rank on Instagram. So shameless...

- His digital sales are abnormal but he does have more listeners than Nilo in real life

- Ugh, people seem to actually like the song. Even if he didn't do sajaegi, he would've charted decently. Why did he have to pull this... So unlikeable.

- They're doing sajaegi because they want "But the song is actually good, though?" reactions

Gagman Yoo Se Yoon protests against the ban on his song 'My Anus is Strong'

Article: Yoo Se Yoon's new song 'My anus is...' He protests against the decision to ban the song on the broadcast

Source: Yeonhap via Naver

(His song is a remix of a children's song 'Poop Song')

1. [+2331, -68] I totally understand why it's banned...

2. [+709, -116] Can he stop being crazy, ugh...

3. [+411, -39] He could've made songs about other things, not like that. I'm glad the song is banned!

4. [+301, -27] The song should never be allowed on the broadcast. It'll be used in wrong ways.

5. [+271, -48] You think it's acceptable to be unique without morals?

6. [+140, -5] The title itself is gross enough. I'm afraid elementary school kids will sing this... How can he be so thoughtless as a father?

7. [+84, -2] People mention a children's song but the purpose of the children's song is bowel training 4~6-year-olds. A pop song isn't meant for bowel training.

8. [+70, -2] The problem isn't the word 'anus', the whole sentence sounds cheap. I know he also released a song on sexual intercourse before. He should cut it out, the hot weather is annoying enough.

Popularity of Korean agrifoods lead to 'fruit hallyu' boom

Article: 'Fruit hallyu' boom in Vietnam

Source: Kyunghyang via Nate

(Exported Korean agrifoods reached the highest in the first half of 2018, which was increased by 28% within a year.)

1. [+781, -16] My foreign friend told me Korean pears and strawberries taste really good.

2. [+699, -29] For summer, watermelon is the best... You can't find watermelons like this anywhere else.

3. [+473, -13] I remember how Japanese curling players Fujisa and Satsuki said they liked Korean strawberries and they got so much hate from Japanese right-wingers. Those right-wingers are being jealous and claim they're Japanese strawberries.

4. [+34, -0] Mangoes are on a whole new level in Southeast Asia ㅠㅠ

5. [+31, -0] If fruit hallyu actually happens, all Korean fruits will be exported and Koreans will have to pay much more for fruits ㅠㅠ This isn't good, it only benefits the middle-sellers ㅠㅠ

6. [+22, -2] Korean strawberries, watermelons, pears, and apples are a top class in the world. You can't compete.

7. [+19, -2] Vietnam is also a fruit heaven. Their fruits are sweeter and cheaper. They import Korean apples and strawberries but it's better to pay $1 and buy their durians or watermelons instead.

8. [+18, -2] The strawberries in the picture look really unappetizing.

'Way Back Home' by Shaun is doing abnormally well on the chart?

Weekly chart: Shaun's song (at #6) is jumped up by +131

The song surpassing Twice & Blackpink on the chart

#1 on Melon chart at 1AM

Pann: Is Shaun's song real?

1. [+75, -2] I'm an Apink fan but Twice fans must be really upset. How many times is this happening? I didn't find Nilo's controversy serious, but yesterday I noticed how this song kept climbing on the chart. It was annoying.

2. [+38, -2] Fuck, what a robber.

3. [+30, -2] Second Nilo. I listened to the song because I thought the song was good enough to be charting high like that... I'm sure a lot of non-fans did this.

4. [+15, -0] I think the comments are being manipulated here like the last time. They try to make it seem like the public truly likes the song.

5. [+15, -0] Other artists work so hard to chart high but he's stealing the spot. He should be a confident artist, what the hell is this? Can he even be showing this off?

6. [+13, -1] Did he even appear on Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook or anything? It's possible to chart high like this without any TV or radio appearance?

EXO-L claims she was punched by security team 'Hwarangdan' at EXO concert

EXO fan's account

At the EXO concert on July 13, 2018, I asked one of the Hwarangdan guys where I was supposed to enter. Perhaps because of the hot weather, he murmured "ssibal" and started walking me towards the entrance. I then realized I left my lightstick in the locker so I said sorry and told him I was gonna go back. He asked me if I was crazy, grabbed my wrist, and then punched me in the heart hard. I got a heart surgery 4 months ago so I'm supposed to be careful about it. I was fine because I had my friend accompanying me but this happened when my friend was absent for a bit. He punched my left heart which is the surgery part and sinc then, I've been having very bad pains. My doctor had told me to never get hit in the surgery part and that I won't have to undergo a second surgery if I'm being careful. But now I lost the hopes. I'm not going to report this incident, please just apologize at least. And there are a lot of other fans who were hit by them, not just me. SM, please fire Hwarangdan or do proper security.

Proof 1: concert ticket & nickname

Pann: I accuse violence from the security team Hwarangdan at EXO concert

1. [+128, -3] The EXO fan didn't even do anything wrong... I'm so upset.

2. [+113, -2] I'm not a fan but all other fans should be publicizing this, not just EXO-Ls. They need to be criticized hard to realize this... And if SM doesn't say anything about it, they're total idiots and hopeless. This is inhuman. Did they become security guards to beat others up instead of doing their job? I'm so pissed.

3. [+106, -1] Joonmyun once said, "Shouldn't the security guards be protecting the fans as well?" They need to be well-mannered. We tried to be good at the concert but they ruined it. The job of the security is to hit fans who are hurt and swear at them?

4. [+29, -0] They're a security team, what do they think their job is? The OP didn't even do anything illegal, why did he hit her? And in the heart? I can't understand. Hitting for no reason should never be done. The security teams need to stop looking down on idol fans. This happened so many times.

5. [+25, -1] Why are they getting mad when fans ask for directions? Isn't that what they're supposed to do?

2. [+3538, -110] Croatia... Their second place is so touching~

3. [+3448, -114] Scoring an own goal and PK goal in the first round was so unfortunate.

4. [+2878, -100] Croatia did well. I rooted for them sincerely.

5. [+2468, -56] It was so fun. Lots of goals, Llois' gags, and Croatia players' hard-work until the end. It was the best.

7. [+580, -109] The match was a great final round. Congrats on France's win.

2. [+3138, -63] Those idiots ruined the last golden generation of Croatia that happens once in every century.

3. [+2097, -12] How uncivilized

4. [+1866, -33] They look like Russians

5. [+1339, -13] That's enough

6. [+322, -3] They're members of a feminist Russian band. What did Croatia do wrong to deserve this?

7. [+298, -3] Croatia did well. I've never rooted so hard for a country except Korea.

8. [+255, -7] If you play soccer, you would know that breaking a rising tension totally changes the flow of the game.

3. [+384, -14] Croatia is good. They worked hard!

4. [+324, -8] Croatia's willingness to not give up was so cool.

5. [+52, -4] Croatia had three overtimes in a row and their break was a day shorter. They deserve an applause for their determination and tenacity.

6. [+39, -3] Griezmann totally put on a Hollywood action with the first goal. How did the VAR referees not catch that?

2. [+3015, -53] England got lucky with the schedule of the tournament.

3. [+2562, -67] Belgium's defeat by France was so unfortunate...

4. [+2412, -79] Hazard is so good

5. [+1703, -57] Look at the English players marching in a line like a train ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+295, -10] How many times did they kill De Bryune's passes?

8. [+280, -65] Jang Geun Suk was fine filming a drama just a few months ago but he became bipolar when he decided to serve at the age of 32.

9. [+209, -6] Even if England managed to advance into the final, they would've gotten slayed by France.

10. [+196, -9] Look at these English jerks half-assing their game. If they were Korean players, they would've gotten showered by online comments.

11. [+179, -9] Belgium is really good

12. [+175, -8] Conclusion of the match: England was all about getting lucky with the schedule of the tournament. How did they even advance into semi-finals?

2. [+5432, -158] What about the Leagues... The players won't be in a good condition.

3. [+3963, -113] What about the schedule of the Leagues?

4. [+3539, -553] What? This is the same as writing college entrance exams in March.

5. [+2560, -111] Then the major players in big European clubs won't participate. What about the Leagues...

6. [+319, -23] They were saying that they were going to install ACs and all that stuff in the stadium to hold World Cup in Qatar. What do they mean by November ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+192, -14] I don't know how much Qatar paid for this but I seriously don't understand why they decided to hold World Cup in a hot country that never even participated in World Cup before...

8. [+170, -43] Jang Geun Suk needs to enlist!

Article: Son Heung Min aims for AG gold medal, is the current system of military exemption OK?

Source: Oh My News via Naver

1. [+3099, -178] The military service is blocking his career when he's at the age to be at his peak... On the other hand, someone had no problem with filming a drama just a few months ago but he became bipolar when he decided to enlist and he's doing an alternate service at the age of 32.

2. [+2523, -391] The sports players need to be exempt for the days they spent to train as national players. It's their personal honor but I think it's fair for them to be exempt for the days they spent for the country.

3. [+2355, -137] Let him enlist at the age of 32 like Jang Geun Suk. Are you kidding me? Why should Son Heung Min be forced to serve in July, 2019? I don't care about celebrities getting away with it because it's their custom and for Son Heung Min, his service should also be delayed because he's a top soccer player that the entire country is focusing on.

4. [+1011, -110] The military service is blocking the players' careers! They're not even allowed to serve after they retire. It doesn't make sense that the players' nationality is their weakness.

5. [+188, -44] If there was no exemption in 2002, Park Jisung in ManU wouldn't exist.

6. [+185, -38] They need to strengthen the law for baseball players. There are only three countries in Asia that play baseball properly. It's so easy to get exempt by baseball.

Are dating shows a bad influence in real life?

Article: 'Dating shows' shed a dark cloud on real life dating

Source: NoCut News via Naver

1. [+1316, -217] There are hopeless women who watch those shows and go, "That girl is a fox! What's with that guy? So and so should've became a thing instead! Daebak, so and so are rumored to be dating!"

2. [+432, -9] I don't watch them.

3. [+383, -4] I don't watch any of those three shows.

4. [+329, -3] Jjak used to be the most realistic dating show... There were many participants who had an average job. But nowadays, couple-matching programs only feature high-class people who have a high-paying job, drive a brand SUV, and are in chaebol categories. I don't watch them because it's their own league.

5. [+206, -7] Can they stop with these shows?

6. [+155, -47] It's better to be lonely than be painful from dating.

7. [+107, -1] It's nothing but a chance for celebrity wannabes. There must be a lot of idiots who fantasize from these shows. It's a cheap broadcast.

8. [+83, -4] On Heart Signal, the guy was a lawyer in his 30's and the girl was a student in her early-20's ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It was so unlikeable. Why do they feature a girl who doesn't even have a job? Don't mention sexism when we have settings like this. As a fellow woman, I feel embarrassed.

BTS fans buy albums
Wanna One fans comment on Naver articles

1. [+81, -32] You can't help but buy BTS' albums ㅋㅋㅋ Every song is legendary and to think how the members produced all of them.

2. [+39, -0] If there's a fandom that does all of that, no one would be able to beat the fandom...

3. [+29, -1] They're quite unique in their own ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+22, -27] For singers, BTS fans are the most beneficial way.

5. [+20, -4] Yes. For ARMYs, they're not really interested in voting compared to the size of the fandom. They also hate Naver because of many reasons. They just listen to BTS in their rooms.

6. [+17, -0] Comments on Naver articles are extremely effective to the brand value. Wanna One gained a lot of fans from their Naver Cast fancams. That's why the fans are interested in Naver.

7. [+14, -0] I'm an ARMY but a lot of times, I get frustrated at how we're not doing any voting, even on the official fancafe. For Naver, we only like articles instead of commenting. So our articles are the most liked articles but the number of comments is really small. I like how we buy a lot of physical albums, though. We're still selling the debut album well.

8. [+14, -1] So funny how true this is ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
