1. [+2,271, -29] I hope others will learn something from the agency letting Dongho off like that so that only the idols who are truly talented and in it for the passion will remain

2. [+1,725, -22] Debuting 50 teams in one year is definitely going too far

3. [+1,566, -16] Yeah, there are just too many idols, especially nugus

4. [+334, -10] There are a lot of idols who definitely don't have a future.. I hope they'll just quit as well.

5. [+329, -6] Not like we'd notice a few groups disappearing

6. [+288, -7] We have too many idol groups for such a small country

7. [+242, -11] 13 years ago, America had the Backstreet Boys and N'SYNC! The only one still in the industry today? Justin Timberlake! It's only right for all of the idols to drop off over time.

8. [+234, -6] At least Dongho got his name in the media, there are tons of idols who either disband or leave their groups without so much as a word in the media

9. [+167, -10] I don't think the hate should be directed at the idol agencies but rather how the public perceives pop culture... We place so much value on physical beauty and having great bodies that we obsess over it more than musicality, which only creates more opportunities for idols. Our entire society is preoccupied with looks and that's literally burying people with any talent outside of looking pretty.
