Article: Even Shin Seung Hoon and IU turn away from 'ranked music shows'... voices raised to take them off air

1. [+3,377, -76] Music show rankings are meaningless. It's just a battle of the fandoms.

2. [+2,668, -77] It's true, music shows are just a bunch of idols you don't know taking turns with the trophy. Meaningless.

3. [+2,088, -85] We need more shows like 'Sketchbook'

4. [+2,918, -1,467] I don't think IU's at the status yet to be included up there

5. [+1,410, -159] It is just a fandom fight right now which is why there are more and more artists who don't care about promoting on music shows, starting with Big Bang and IU... there's no point to these rankings.

6. [+525, -120] IU's still an idol too, don't write her up as if she's some high status artist ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+488, -83] Anyone who didn't know better would think IU has never won anything on music shows through the influence of her fandom. She doesn't really have any right to be mentioned in the same sentence as Shin Seung Hoon.

8. [+536, -141] Stop trying to make IU seem above the rest ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+449, -69] IU's only not promoting because she's tired and looking out for her health... don't write her up as if she's above everyone in status.

10. [+455, -99] Why is IU included in this??? She's just trying to make an image for herself again. Loen knows so many journalists, IU lives off of these media plays.

11. [+368, -53] IU's only an idol when it suits her and then she goes and acts like a high status artist like this who's so above those peasant idols~

12. [+336, -45] IU has won so many trophies on these shows already, why is she cosplaying as some artist above idols for this promo? ㅋㅋ

13. [+263, -33] IU's side has no right to be claiming this.. ㅋㅋ They're the ones who started her on an idol concept and then randomly wiped their mouths clean after she started cosplaying as an artist

14. [+240, -31] IU's an idol still, no? She has a fandom and grew to her fame through variety shows like any other idol

15. [+199, -24] Since when was IU not an idol? Just because she's not in a group doesn't mean she's any different from all the other idols out there.
