IVE Fans Questioning ONEUS 'Music Bank Win
However, not all are happy with the outcome of yesterday's Music bank episode. Many fans like those of IVE and Kim Jaehwan are questioning its validity.
The score breakdown is as follows:
Digital score - 116 vs. 4
Broadcast score - 4090 vs. 6087
Audience score - 0 vs 0
Physical score - 3908 vs. 732
social media score - 1 vs. 0
In Theqoo post, fans of other contenders are questioning the win of the Rainbow Bridge World boy group. Most of them have mentioned Kim Jaehwan only, while others are asking who the group is.
"Kim Jaehwan, let's hit daebak!!!!"
"Doesn't Kim Jaehwan appear a lot more on broadcast?"
"Who are they???"
"Yeah, 4 digital points is just oba..."
"Look at those broadcast points of the #2ㄷㄷㄷ"
"Are the #1 not even ashamed they're even nominated on public TV?"
"So you can win #1 like that tooㅋㅋㅋㅋ What is up with their digital and physical points..."
"Tell me this is an empty house"
"I've seen Kim Jaehwan so many times, who is ONEUS?"
"Kim Jaehwan only has this many digital points?"
On the other hand, IVE fans are questioning KBS for not including IVE in the final lineup of contenders as they have swept all Korean music charts and have really high album sales plus they have been in many KBS shows so they should have a high broadcast point.
KBS "Music Bank" has a history of manipulating their winners through the broadcast points so fans are in doubt of it.
However, ONEUS fans are saying that it is not the boy group's fault if they scored that high as they are not in control of the pointing system.
