1. [+374, -17] Stop expanding the company. There's not one industry that SM isn't a part of from varieties to dramas to restaurants to travel. At least take care of the artists that you have before expanding into other stuff.

2. [+362, -16] Why not just stick to what you've been doing... SM has lost touch;;

3. [+218, -11] Vietnam is different from Korea. I'm worried that they're going to do something stupid and dent Korea's image. Korean agencies only care about turning idols into products and making money off of them...

4. [+14, -4] What's going on in Vietnam? First Park Hang Seo and now SM?

5. [+8, -0] Park Hang Seo did so much to improve Korea's image there and now these entertainment companies are going to ruin it

6. [+8, -0] I never listen to SM's new songs anymore, they're all so bad...

7. [+8, -1] Just stick to what you've been doing

8. [+6, -0] SM needs to start by changing out their first line of composers. Their songs all sound like foreign ad songs... Soshi's unit too. I was so surprised at how little it seems they invested in it.

9. [+6, -0] Now that soccer has improved Korea's image over there, we're already starting to see people slapping their spoons on the table

10. [+5, -1] After seeing the Vietnamese version of 'Descendants of the Sun', they have some amazing visuals over there..
