1. [+602, -29] Shinhwa was the one that helped SBS's weekend varieties like X-Men and Love Letter hit daebak but they were hit with a pathetic ban just because Shinhwa declined a few variety offers

2. [+572, -27] Isn't this an example of the broadcast channel exerting their power over them? They're blatantly ignoring the viewers' rights to see them.

3. [+465, -23] It's their loss... I don't even care about SBS so it doesn't matter to me whether Shinhwa's on their channel or not.

4. [+154, -1] Shinhwa's done just so much for SBS. When Eric was at the height of his career and worth the most, he still appeared in their reversal dramas after finishing X-Men. As if that wasn't enough, they had four Shinhwa members on it on top of Andy and Dongwan as Inkigayo MCs. Love Letter was a hit because of Shinhwa which is why SBS reached out to them again but from what I know, Shinhwa didn't decline them because they wanted to. This just shows how much backdoor stuff is going on in the industry.

5. [+130, -0] SBS is totally stepping over the line

6. [+115, -1] DJ DOC can't go on SBS either because they declined to go on 'Strong Heart'. Pathetic that a channel that represents our country is acting this way... tsk tsk tsk

7. [+106, -2] Pathetic that they banned them for two years just because Shinhwa declined a program that's all about dating. I doubt they would've had the balls to ban them if Shinhwa was still a part of SM.

8. [+101, -1] I still remember SBS putting out an article about how they confirmed Eric's casting for Law of the Jungle. When it turned out to be false, they put out another article putting Eric down ㅋㅋ They talked crap about him saying that other idols like Mir and Kwanghee accepted the show just fine but he himself declined ㅋㅋㅋ The difference is that those kids need the show to raise their popularity while Eric's been in the industry for 15 years and doesn't need it.

9. [+92, -2] DJ DOC can't perform on Inkigayo because they declined Strong Heart. Kwanghee offered to MC for Inkigayo instead of Law of the Jungle. Lee Seung Gi also pissed off SBS somehow too and he was banned from performing on Inkigayo in the past. Seems like matters like these are resolved if the artist just MCs for Strong Heart and comes out on a few of their variety shows. SBS literally has these celebrities in the palm of their hands.
