Article[D-eye] “Did they delete the song on the playlist, saved it?...KBS under suspicion of tampering with Lim Young-woong's broadcast records

Source: Dispatch

We asked why his "broadcast" points were "zero" but couldn't get a clear answer. 

KBS just repeated, "We can't tell you the criteria for counting broadcast scores."

From May 2nd to 8th, we asked again if he had ever appeared on air.

"We also reviewed it from Lim Young woong's point of view since it was strange but the new song was not aired." - Music Bank official

Dispatch decided, "Let's just, let's find it." 

It was 9pm on May 18th.

We searched all 112 KBS FM radios.

We went to the radio program website and look at the list of songs in selection for the aggregated period (2nd through 8th)

I think it was around 11pm on the 18th?

Finally! We found 'Can We Meet Again' on the 4-day playlist 'Exciting Night!'

Dispatch captured it as soon as we saw it. 

It was past midnight, and the date was changed to the 19th .

Dispatch went back to the 'Exciting Night' homepage.

But something was strange.

No matter how much we searched, we couldn't find 'Can we meet again'... again.

Reporter Jung Tae-yoon screen capped it with his smartphone.

He searched through the playlist again but couldn't find Lim Young-woong's song.

Even though Lim Young-woong's song had disappeared it was being aired elsewhere. 

Shall we take a look at  the radio show 'With Kim Hye-young'?

In the playlist dated May 7th, 'Can we meet again' was there?

Dispatch captured the scene. This was around 11pm on the 18th.

But KBS' playlist was like Cinderella.

After the clock struck midnight (12 o'clock), it disappears.

In fact, at dawn on the 19th, there was nothing on the 'With Kim Hye-young' playlist.

Just a notice saying 'No playlist information' .

It was the same with the 'Lim Baek-cheon Top 100' playlist.

There, on the night of May 18th was 'Can We Meet Again?'

But we checked the playlist again in the early morning on the 19th, and there was nothing.

How can this phenomenon be explained?

At dawn on the 19th , something even more absurd happened.


'Exciting Night' playlist.

'With Kim Hye-young' playlist


Even on 'Lim Baek-cheon Top 100' playlist, the song was back again.

Just like the title of Lim Young-woong's song, 'we could meet again.'

Dispatch asked about <The Disappearance and Resurrection of  Lim Young-woong> on the 19th.

KBS said, "We don't know who's in charge of the website. We will check with the in-charge and deliver the contents."

Still, we have yet to get a clear answer. 


Let's just give them the benefit of a doubt. 

Wouldn't KBS have known Lim Young-woong's new song was broadcast on the night of the 18th?

Did KBS attempt to destroy evidence (?) in the early morning of the 19th?

Then, on the morning of the 19th, maybe KBS figured they might face headwinds?

Is that why KBS restored the song on the playlist on the morning of the 19th?

If KBS does not give a clear answer, misunderstandings will inevitably escalate.

We'd love to hear their explanations.

PS. On the afternoon of the 19th, 'Music Bank' announced their criteria for radio broadcast scores. "We count only 7 KBS Cool FM programs." However, the program name is listed as "private" information

Dispatch again searched 7 radio programs hidden by KBS. Here, once again, we had to tilt our heads. Zero? That score doesn't mean much if you don't meet the prerequisites. 

We'll be back and 'meet again' with the next article.
