1. [+1,079, -79] Even South Koreans can't understand what their song lyrics are talking about and we're expecting the North to? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+826, -23] Red Velvet is going to be culture shock for them ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+535, -235] #1 They're the only girl group with all Korean members #2 They're talented enough, definitely not a group where talent is a question #3 Five members is more than enough than other groups with a ton of members #4 They'll probably perform 2-3 songs and they have enough variety from cute to powerful to show a lot of different things #5 They're better than any North Korean music group # And in conclusion, all five are pretty so they can break the bias that women from the North are prettier ㅋ

4. [+49, -12] Well SM got EXO in for Pyeongchang too, Lee Soo Man is clearly pulling some strings here...

5. [+42, -9] I wonder what the North will think of the Southern youth after hearing that songs with meaningless lyrics like "rookie rookie!!" and "ice cream ice cream!!" are popular ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ and their dancing too ㅋㅋ we really couldn't have sent an idol group with lyrics that we can at least understand? ㅋㅋ

6. [+41, -10] Duh because they're SM

7. [+34, -1] Because they're under SM. It's not like Red Velvet is known for being talented like Mamamoo or pretty like Twice. Soshi would've been perfect but their fans have dispersed for the most part right now.

8. [+22, -3] Why do you think why... because they're under SM

9. [+18, -3] Why not Twice?

10. [+13, -4] I would've preferred Twice
