Fans and netizens argue over L's screentime on 'Radio Star'

As always, the best replies were off topic with the actual article content so I had to read through the other comments to see what was going on.

The article talks about L's guesting on 'Radio Star' with fellow cast members of his MBC sitcom. He introduced himself using his real name, Kim (thanks anon) Myung Soo, and not L, which earned him some teasing from the MCs who all thought comedian Park Myung Soo was in the line-up today.

I assume L didn't get a lot of screentime on the show because fans were leaving angry comments about how the camera didn't catch him that much throughout the show, which provoked netizens into commenting that he barely got a word in there despite his seniors trying to include him in jokes and discussions. Some argued that he might be shy or that variety's just not his thing.

Basically, a lot of fans admitted that it was their own fault for bringing up the issue and leading to L getting criticized in the comments by netizens.

1. [+201, -39] What can you do. He came out on the show with a lot of top name seniors. Did he expect the seniors to try and play up to him to get him extra screentime? It's not like the MCs would've just left him stranded there either. I'm sure they kept inviting him in to grab him some screentime. If he couldn't even catch on to that, then he deserves to be edited out from the show.

2. [+202, -57] He's the only one responsible for his own screentime. Do you think it's like in the past where you're put on a pedestal on shows just because you're an idol? Don't come out on shows if you suck at variety. With what confidence did he come out on there on his own?

3. [+184, -46] He was basically pushed out of the spotlight. Yeah, screentime is screentime, but the fact that he got such little screentime means that he just wasn't cut out for the job during the recording. Anyway, it shouldn't matter because he was there to promote his sitcom, not himself.

4. [+64, -30] He's responsible for his own screentime. It's nobody's responsiblity to work hard to secure someone else screentime. Last week, CNBLUE's Jonghyun did just fine on his own. How boring L must've been that all he did on the show was play wallpaper before it ended.

5. [+41, -15] In the time you stupid fangirls are worrying about the screentime of celebrities, please go and study instead of watching TV every day.

6. [+38, -5] I acknowledge that L was edited out because he was boring. So please INFINITE fans stop making a fuss out of it here. L was on the show to promote his drama, not himself.

7. [+37, -7] Radio Star doesn't care about making sure all of their guests get equal screentime. That's why people like Kim Tae Won and Go Young Wook, who nobody cared about before, could come out and dominate all of the screentime by being funny and making people laugh. They became bluechips of the variety world through that. What I'm saying is that Radio Star wasn't purposely trying to cut L out. It was just that he was too quiet and boring even when they threw him questions to work with. So INFINITE fans need to stop acting so angry with this.

8. [+34, -17] What, did you guys think people like Kwanghee, Lee Joon, and Kikwang got screentime because the PDs thought they were cute? ㅋㅋ They were funny and did their job ㅋㅋㅋ The fans need to stop bi*ching over their B-level idol

9. [+34, -11] If I was L, I'd be grateful I even received a paycheck for being a wallpaper on the show.. tsk

10. [+32, -17] Looks like all of the stupid fangirls are pissed because they were waiting for the show after hearing their oppa would be on it but only got 1 minute of footage. If you studied in that time, you could've done something good for your future.
