Jo Woo Jong's INFINITE incident, Park Sang Do's Junsu incident, and Oh Jung Yeon's EXO incident where she asked Lay in a video call "You're going to return, right?" at EXO's comeback press conference when Lay was in China.

1. [+320, -7] Other than the Kim Junsu one, the others were just stuff you could laugh off. Seems the journalist is the one with the problem.

2. [+283, -11] Jo Woo Jong's was just a joke.. while Park Sang Do picked on Junsu to win a nomination with the politicians. As for Oh Jung Yeon, EXO's stupid fangirls made a fuss over nothing..

3. [+207, -7] Jo Woo Jong was following a script, it's not fair to take it out on him.

4. [+19, -0] Park Sang Do just wanted to look good in front of the politicans ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+15, -3] The only ones who give a sh*t about stuff like this are the stupid fangirls ㅋㅋ No one else cares

6. [+15, -3] Why can't they mess with idols? Are they some holy beings that can't be touched?

7. [+14, -4] Anchormen look down on celebrities as beneath them anyway. They think they're the elite and celebrities are just clowns for entertainment. I remember before when anchorwoman Yoon Young Mi put up a selca with 4minute and said "She's a 4minute member but I don't know her name" and 4minute fans got up in arms. When asked why she even bothered to put up the picture at all if she didn't know her, she was like, "Whatever, it's my choice". They don't care about celebrities at all.

8. [+13, -0] Park Sang Do's was the only real issue, the rest should've been laughed off. If a gagman or other variety star said them, would it have been as big of an issue? People make mistakes in interviews all the time, I don't think it's anything like anchormen having an agenda against idols.

9. [+11, -3] Why should they care about the feelings of a pathetic idol ㅋㅋㅋ
- It's basic respect
- People are just asking for a basic sense of respect. You're the pathetic one for thinking idols are pathetic and not deserving of the same respect.

10. [+6, -1] I think the opposite is also the problem when people treat idol guests like gods, Park Ji Yoon looked like she would lick their feet if she had to
