Korean Netizens Turn Against EXO’s Xiumin In Light Of Alleged Ban From “Music Bank”

On March 4, EXO Xiumin‘s agency, INB100, revealed that Xiumin was prevented from performing on Music Bank due to the presence of SM Entertainment artists on the show.
Xiumin, who is signed with INB100, is set to release his solo album Interview X on March 10, marking his return after a break of two years and six months. In preparation for this, the agency made multiple efforts to arrange performance opportunities with broadcasting stations. However, KBS allegedly refused to let him perform on Music Bank the same time as other SM Entertainment artists. KBS has denied the claims.

In a twist of fate, the public seems to side with the broadcaster rather than INB100. Netizens find it hard to believe when INB100 has an alleged history of lying in the media for mediaplay.

- So pathetic of them FR.
- Honestly, do or don’t… There’s probably a reason behind it given how often they’re being talked about in the media.
- This company lies and media plays too often that I can’t believe them. I can’t even trust this.
- “There’s no room for you, just go back.” (“Growl” lyrics)
- With that logic, they wouldn’t be able to go on Music Core either because Hearts2Hearts‘ member is the MC. If they fought with Inkigayo too, then they can’t go to any of the three music shows LOL. Good luck.
- It’s not like Xiumin is as impactful as JYJ, so what are they saying?
