1. [+218, -5] Yeah, SM even bought a picture from NASA, there's no way they'd be this careless

2. [+209, -6] EXO fans didn't even shield this and stayed quiet the whole time. I hope everyone who took this as an opportunity to attack us will get the boomerang treatment right back.

3. [+84, -0] SM even bought a picture of space from NASA to use as their homepage background;

4. [+80, -3] So that Swedish designer is the idiot in all of this

5. [+54, -1] I was really proud at how quiet EXO-L stayed during all of this. I feel like we've finally learned how to deal with scandals ㅠㅠ And I'm glad that it's not plagiarism, I hope it's all figured out soon.

6. [+53, -0] So what's going on? SM hired a company to produce their teaser and the company bought the rights from the original designer but the original designer didn't know it was being used for SM?

7. [+31, -1] The fans who stayed quiet instead of making up shields had a lot to do with the scandal not being as controversial. I was so scared when the accusation first came out but SM responded quickly so I was glad.
