1. [+214, -30] iKON doesn't even have any fans
2. [+188, -22] Whatever happened with their crossdressing controversy at their concert?
3. [+124, -20] YG doesn't care, they're probably like "we still have the South East Asian market"
4. [+33, -9] YG isn't iKON's problem. Their problem is that the members don't have great relationships and the music is centered around only BI and Bobby so the fandom gets weaker and weaker...
5. [+20, -12] Funny how BI and Bobby always went on and on about how other idols aren't talented and hyped themselves up as being better than idols in their lyrics, but can they explain why they're nugus now~? ㅋㅋ
6. [+13, -2] iKON really does't promote enough... no one around me knows who iKON is ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ if anything, it's because Bobby was on 'SMTM' ㅠ
7. [+10, -0] YG really sucks at their job
8. [+10, -7] Boycotting merchandise is pointless, the bulk of their income comes from digital sales and concerts
9. [+7, -2] Looks like YG kept promoting them in Japan without any Korean promos...
10. [+7, -3] They really have no right to be complaining at all because this group shouldn't have debuted in the first place. Yang Hyun Suk said so himself that the losing team in 'WIN' would not get to debut but they came out with another reality and debuted them. Despite all the support they got, they still never got successful. Their digital sales were a flop in Korea so they had no choice but to go to Japan. There's nothing to boycott here.

1. [+497, -20] As a fan, I think YG is taking things too far. Their new song release yesterday was only put out in Japan in Japanese... Was the purpose of this group to only be promoted overseas? How is it normal that a Korean group has more released songs in Japan than in Korea? The members keep saying "We miss Korea", "We love promoting in Korea, sorry for making you wait".. it's so frustrating
2. [+447, -17] I hope people understand that this isn't a boycott against iKON
3. [+401, -16] We demand proper feedback from the agency
4. [+371, -16] We want proper feedback from YG
5. [+347, -14] Please give us proper feedback..
6. [+193, -5] We want a proper feedback, not three lines of careless text
7. [+193, -8] iKON isn't a Japanese group. YG needs to know the limit. They didn't perform on music shows during their promo period and were off in Japan releasing limited songs while Korean fans were stuck waiting.
8. [+188, -7] I've been holding it in and waiting since their debut. We sent 18 pages of problems but all we got in return was "worrying about iKON is pointless" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ We demand proper feedback from YG. I cannot stand hearing the iKON members apologize anymore. This boycott is towards YG, not iKON.
9. [+183, -7] YG, please give us proper feedback
10. [+184, -8] Please do not excuse your actions saying they're preparing for their next album. Why was a Japanese tour scheduled in between their Korean promos? We request proper feedback
