1. [+804, -12] SM, stop accepting Chinese trainees

2. [+555, -25] I prefer Hybe to Kakao. I want Hybe to acquire them, work out whatever overlaps they have between the companies, and advance into becoming a top entertainment company in the world...

3. [+226, -3] Wow... I didn't think I'd see the day Hybe acquires SM...

4. [+146, -27] Kakao was never it

5. [+63, -6] SM needs some type of change. The new kids they're debuting lately just haven't been up to par in both singing and looks.

6. [+30, -0] Just please stop Kakao and their Chinese money

7. [+28, -1] People are supporting Bang Shi Hyuk and putting down Kakao for a reason. Kakao's image is in the gutters right now, and I hope they realize that they're reaping what they sowed...

8. [+22, -0] If this was a K-drama, Soo Man would be the main character who passed management of a company he worked hard to build and now that management is trying to screw him over. So now he's going to Bang Shi Hyuk for help and where does the plot go from here? Soo Man and Bang Shi Hyuk hold hands to defeat the bad guys? 

9. [+19, -1] So basically Hybe is blocking SM from being taken by Chinese investments?? And Bang Shi Hyuk is really the only one who has the money to do that. At least he's putting his money to patriotic use, I support it ^^

10. [+14, -0] Can Kakao please just screw off

11. [+13, -1] BTS is seriously changing the entire game in the music industry... because you know all of this money was made from BTS...

12. [+6, -1] I prefer Hybe to Kakao and their Chinese investments

3. [+27] Maybe Hybe can be the one to stop the infinite expansion of NCT...

4. [+36] Lee Soo Man: ^__________^

5. [+7] Now it's time for JYP to acquire YG..!

6. [+12] Yup, I'd much rather Hybe take SM than Chinese money Kakao

7. [+9] Bang Shi Hyuk is kinda getting scary now ㅋ

8. [+2] This is so crazy...

9. [+22] Bang Shi Hyuk with that Gragas power;;
