Article: YG "TOP's 'Flower Road' controversy? Not sure why something he recorded 2 years ago is a problem" (official)

1. [+1,322, -209] The problem is that he's making an income while still in service unless you're all too high to understand that

2. [+1,186, -88] Of course YG is super fast with clarifications on issues like this

3. [+1,076, -124] Amazing that YG will defend you even when you've done drugs;

4. [+58, -12] Why not in a society where even an act of sexual harassment you did 36 years ago is still relevant? (in reference to a #metoo confession on Lee Young Ha that happened 36 years ago)

5. [+56, -12] It doesn't matter when you recorded it, it matters when it was released and being sold for income

6. [+47, -13] Yeah you produced it then but you're selling it now

7. [+31, -16] I still don't get why this is different from actors who release CFs after going into service??

8. [+28, -7] Why is it okay for actors to pre-film movies, dramas, and CFs before enlisting but not this?

9. [+26, -10] I don't really like TOP either but there are a ton of actors who release movies, dramas, and CFs during service so why is this an issue now? And technically GD, Taeyang, and Daesung are in service now too so why is it only TOP that's controversial? ㅋㅋ

10. [+19, -1] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It doesn't matter when he recorded it, it matters when the song was released ㅋㅋㅋㅋ according to that logic, he's free to release any album that he recorded before his marijuana scandal since it happened before it ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even Swings apologized for this, why should TOP get a free pass?

1. [+4,404, -609] I hate TOP and don't wish to see him again but I feel that it's wrong that other actors and singers are able to release things during their service but he can't. The only issue here should be if he recorded a song during service and released it.

2. [+3,527, -657] What about when your building is being rented out while you're in service, are you not allowed to collect rent on that property either? ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+3,273, -804] TVXQ, JYJ, E-Sens all released songs during their service, even sold jewelry, so why all this targeting on Big Bang? Because you're jealous it's charting at #1?

4. [+2,119, -478] This wouldn't be a big deal in the media if 'Flower Road' flopped ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ but since it's hitting daebak, all the jealous haters are coming out of the woodworks. I actually think it'd make more sense if the argument was that he shouldn't be allowed to release work during his probation but his service? Other celebrities have released albums and dramas and movies and CFs so what's the deal?

5. [+426, -96] Why haven't those celebrities who released CFs and albums not been investigated too?
