Article: No Korean artists to attend the three major Japanese music ceremonies for the second year in a row

1. [+1,512, -23] Good, don't go. It's better for us to watch our artists at our own year-end ceremonies.

2. [+1,464, -77] I'm curious as to why Korean artists are even expected to be entertaining the Japanese at their year-end shows when they're barely even on ours?

3. [+1,101, -30] Dokdo is our land

4. [+824, -22] Not like we can do anything about them not inviting us

5. [+706, -28] Wouldn't go even if you invited us

6. [+138, -4] It's not like we ever invited Japanese artists to our own ceremonies so what's the big deal?

7. [+134, -7] I always thought it was funny that artists promoted the fact that they attended the Kohaku as if it was stage of dreams ㅋㅋ It's better for your image not to go

8. [+117, -14] Even the younger Japanese artists don't attend the Kohaku lately. They all just hold concerts at that time. I don't know why Korea's making such a big deal of our artists not attending another country's year-end ceremony.

9. [+94, -3] Why's it such a big deal? Focus on our own year-end ceremonies instead of leaving video messages apologizing for not being there with your Korean fans.

10. [+61, -4] It's better for us. Remember in 2011 when all of the top idols were missing from our own ceremonies. I thought it was ridiculous that Korean artists were attending Korean ceremonies through pre-recordings....
