1. [+291, -169] Naver briefly had Bang Shi Hyuk's article up before they took it down to replace it with Lee Soo Man's article ㅎㅎㅎ what would I expect from Naver. It's always BTS that makes all the money just to be backstabbed in the end.

2. [+207, -86] Bang Shi Hyuk's article was up till this morning... but I guess Naver got in trouble with SM.. now it's just all Lee Soo Man talk since the afternoon ㅎㅎ.. Anyone can tell that only Bang Shi Hyuk deserves to be on this list...

3. [+103, -50] I've heard of Busan's LCT but not NCT and yet NCT supposedly gets talked about all the time in foreign media ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+95, -46] Lee Soo Man was a leader but a has been now

5. [+41, -14] SM is seriously all media play, they never have the numbers to back it up. I bet they spend a crap ton on media play expenses. Meanwhile it's BTS and Big Hit backing it up with numbers... SM's a has been.

6. [+20, -1] No article on the main page about Bang Shi Hyuk making the list too. Why does Naver discriminate?

7. [+25, -7] Bang Shi Hyuk got left out and only Lee Soo Man's article is on the main page. Ugh, what would I expect from SM and damned Naver.

8. [+16, -1] Bang Shi Hyuk did succeed in producing BTS ㅋㅋㅋ but it's pathetic how people are putting Lee Soo Man down for NCT being a flop without realizing that he's created so many other successful groups like TVXQ, Super Junior, SHINee, EXO, SNSD, etc. You can't put him down just because BTS is doing well right now.
