1. [+544, -17] I thought it was a gag show when they started performing "Don't Leave Me" together

2. [+523, -7] I didn't think a public broadcast show would be so unfair

3. [+522, -10] It really was just an SM and JYP concert hall

4. [+80, -4] SM fans were up in arms saying it was a BTS concert when they saw the initial cue sheet leak but in reality, BTS only got a minute each for their solos while SM singers had an entire 30 minutes to themselves... ㅋㅋㅋ Because of SM, BtoB, VIXX, and A Pink only got a song each. How is SM not embarrassed about themselves?

5. [+70, -3] After watching their super lo~ng company stages, I was finally thinking ah.. it's over.. and then they did individual stages after that ㅎㅎ What does that make the other groups who only got a song each? This is playing so dirty

6. [+64, -8] They put in all that work and couldn't even live up to a BTS solo stage

7. [+56, -1] Didn't even look forward to SM or JYP because they're nothing but lip sync experts

8. [+55, -0] It's a gayo festival with all the perks given to SM and JYP. Yes, that's unfair.

9. [+52, -3] Waiting for MBC's cue sheet to get leaked so I know which SM stages to skip..

10. [+49, -0] For a big agency, their performances and lives were so bland.. What's the point of posting up your company name all big and shiny when the actual quality of your stages don't live up to it?

11. [+43, -1] I was wondering why the festival was split into three parts and it's because the entire second part was basically a company party... and yet each of those groups got their own stages after too ㅋㅋㅋ

12. [+42, -2] BTS has grown this big and yet our country isn't giving them the treatment they deserve simply because they're not from a big company. I can't imagine how hard it must've been for mid-tier companies, and other mid-tier idols too... What a realization.

13. [+41, -0] It was really boring

14. [+40, -0] A public broadcast channel should not be acting like this. It's unfair and not an accurate reflection of public sentiment. What country has ever had an awards show featuring an entire company like this?

15. [+39, -0] Did they think it was some talent show?
