Police have revealed plans to investigate the entire 'Produce 101' franchise.

According to police, they plan to investigate the entire 'Produce' series for alleged text vote manipulations.

In a press conference held at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency building in Central Seoul on the 2nd, a police official revealed, "We are checking whether there were any unfair parts in previous seasons of Produce 101 from it's first season to the third."

Police raided Mnet's office in Mapo-gu Seoul on July 31st and secured text voting data from two raids. Police plan to analyze the data to confirm "how" and "why", if there was any manipulation.

The case was assigned to the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office Criminal Division 6 and since then, allegations of manipulation have continued to emerge over previous seasons including 'Produce 48.'

Attention is focusing whether the scope of the investigation will expand to include Mnet programs 'Show Me The Money' and 'Superstar K' as suspicions of vote manipulations on those programs is also rising.

  1. [+1,058, -25] I heard that CJ's eldest son smuggled drugs. Investigate that too.
  2. [+644, -13]  I could tell from watching 'Show Me' that they manipulated votes. Why aren't you investigating them already?
  3. [+366, -12] I remember a lot of controversy with 'SuperStar K4' final at the time. I'm sure they manipulated votes. 
  4. [+356, -4] Aren't the viewers supposed to pick the kids in the first place? Why are PD's the one's choosing who they like? I knew they manipulated after seeing 'Superstar K4'. 
  5. [+108, -6] Let's start by solving X
  6. [+73, -29] Investigate Wanna One's awards too. 
  7. [+84, -23] Tbh I still have doubts about Kim So Hye ㅋㅋㅋ
  8. [+79, -6] Please investigate first and then announce results. There's no use announcing like this and causing the group to break up.
  9. [+47, -1] Are you dragging your feet so that we end up forgetting about it?
  10. [+44, -7] What's the use at this point? Are you going to compensate those kids that were eliminated unjustly?
  11. [+45, -1] Mnet is famous for their evil editing too ㅋㅋ 
  12. [+40, -6] Please look into Wanna One too.
