Article: [Exclusive] A two-faced audition... Brad's experience with 'Superstar K'

1. [+2,856, -32] Brad, you're the best for revealing everything in so much detail.... I knew it was all a lie

2. [+2,373, -36] I always thought that there'd be some level of manipulation but... it's actually quite shocking having it all laid out like this

3. [+2,267, -32] Just as I thought, there's nothing real about the broadcast industry. Everything is according to a pre-planned script written for viewer ratings.

4. [+343, -10] This is the difference between foreigners and Koreans. Korean celebrities are too afraid of being criticized or getting fired to reveal things like this but to foreigners, telling the truth is not that big of a deal. Korea needs to change. We're a country full of lies.

5. [+282, -1] Even in Superstar K4, Jung Junyoung and Roy Kim were obviously asked to record the same stage several times because you can see in the same cuts that their collars are up and down and their guitars are held in opposite directions ㅋㅋ

1. [+427, -3] They're not even denying it as unfounded rumors, just saying they're "shocked" ㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+395, -3] Shocked, are we? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+334, -2] So they're admitting he told the truth ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+18, -0] They probably didn't expect this from him ㅋㅋㅋ I hope that no harm goes to Busker Busker's way

5. [+14, -0] There's no reason for Brad to be lying considering he gets nothing positive out of this

Article: Busker Busker Brad personally clarifies, "I misunderstood because I was not familiar with Korean culture"

1. [+1,138, -35] CJ seems to have taken action. Busker Busker, find strength ㅠㅠㅠ

2. [+1,082, -21] I read his interview... exactly what part of it had anything to do with Korean culture? Unless by culture, CJ means exerting their power over him to get him to shut up.

3. [+974, -21] The only part about Korean culture he didn't know is that there are backdoor deals like this

4. [+54, -2] So what did CJ pressure him to say this time ㅋㅋ

5. [+37, -1] Korean culture basically entails being grateful for the semblance of you success you earn after being forced to do something you don't want to do... CJ probably told Brad to be grateful for all that he's earned through Superstar K and to just shut up if he knows what's good for him.

2. [+4,036, -69] What did CJ say this time...

3. [+2,290, -231] So how much did Superstar K give you?

4. [+1,448, -26] Brad shouldn't be scared. It's his experience as a foreigner in Korean culture that we were able to learn things like this from his perspective.

4. [+1,201, -16] He seems to have settled for the future of Busker Busker.

5. [+1,124, -19] Further proof of the extent of CJ's power
