KBS has been acquitted of alleged "fabrication" charges.

According to KBS on the 10th, "the Seoul Yeongdeongpo Police Station investigated the production team, including the arrested official, but they were cleared of charges on the same day."

The incident happened in May last year when Lim Young-woong and Le Sserafim were nominated for #1 on 'Music Bank.' However, Lim Young-woong ended up second after receiving 0 broadcast points. In response, a complaint was filed with police for "rigging" and an investigation was initiated.  

When controversy arose, KBS stated, "We have never manipulated the broadcast score. During the ranking aggregation period from the 2nd to the 8th, Lim Young Woong's 'Can We Meet Again' was not broadcast on KBS TV, radio, or digital content."

  1. [+698, -104] Lim Young-woong's ahjumma fans are going too far now polluting K-pop charts. If you look there at midnight through dawn, his songs are all lining up the charts from the 1st to the 20th. It's not even songs from an official album but songs he sang at entertainment shows?? Are these rankings even real??
  2. [+464, -42] Quit listening to trot!
  3. [+329, -36] Ahjummas.. lets do things in moderation  ㅋㅋㅋ
  4. [+162, -9]  All we can do is laugh..😒 why...it's a left-wing 'fabrication' station..
  5. [+140, -24] Is Lim Young-woong even that popular? He's only popular within a certain fandom.
  6. [+120, -22] He not even that great on broadcasts but his ahjumma fans keep going crazy over him.
  7. [+106, -19] It's a broadcasting station owned by leftists, of course manipulations are rampant. Is anyone watching these music programs anyway?? They're all ran by leftists.
  8. [+105, -25] No.. should've stuck to your 'trot' playground ahjummas. Aren't you embarrassed going there?
  9. [+89, -9] I guess anyone that goes to a KBS broadcast in the future will automatically get ranked first on their music show. No streaming points necessary. As expected of 'Manipulation Bank.' Does it make sense that Le Sserafim got 5,000 points just because they appeared on TV a few times that week? And police call this an investigation that was completed over 9 months..?
  10. [+29, -11] These ahjummas really put their families behind them for their blind loyalty to Lim Youngwoong.. while their 'husband' is making off with all their money. 
  11. [+27, -0] Tread lightly when it comes to leftist broadcasts like KBS, MBC, YTN.. 
  12. [+20, -6] I've witnessed KBS manipulate scores for SM idols a lot since the old days. Their rankings on music charts would be rock bottom but would still top rankings on 'Music Bank..'
