SBS Producer denies YG bias
2009-11-02 12:17 am
Netizens have been abuzz lately regarding special treatment the stars under YG Entertainment seem to be receiving from SBS. From the tremendous spotlight they received on Idol Big Show, as well as their special performances on Inkigayo, it's no surprise such controversy came up. Also, Inkigayo was the one that held almost all of YG artistes' comeback and debut stages. The accumulated time of their performances exceed the rest of the performing artists compared to MBC Show! Music Core and KBS Music Bank.
The producer, Park Sung Hoon, finally stood up to set the record straight on the first of November at Seoul SBS Public Hall. He stated, "We never offered YG to perform at our stage under the condition of appearing on no other music programs. I have started working with YG President, Yang Hyun Suk, only recently as I started working for Inkigayo. We have been cooperating together since 2NE1's debut stage and we seem to have a good chemistry."
Producer Park has been in charge of Inkigayo since January.
He also added, "We select the stars based strictly on their popularity, just like most of the other music programs do. We cannot deny the guarantee of appearances we give to the popular groups, such as Super Junior and SHINee."
In regards to criticisms on the Idol Big Show, aka the "YG Big Show," due to the majority of their show being centered around performances by Big Bang (G-Dragon) and 2NE1, he stated:
"We never favored YG artistes for the Idol Big Show. Because of their popularity, we asked them to sing two to three songs, just like the rest of the stars. I think people just think that they took the majority of the showtime because they all appeared consecutively toward the end of the show. Honestly, we offered other famous singers to sing more songs, but they rejected due to their busy schedules. The rumor about our favoritism toward YG is very unfair."

SBS:
SBS's sound always seems a little muted, but KBS is like BOOM. Loud & clear. SBS also usually has lackluster stage settings...it's KBS that usually goes all out with the pyrotechnics and MBC goes all out with the stage props.

Date: 2009-11-01 06:47 pm (UTC)I'd believe this. YG must've taken advantage of the offer because he doesn't really send his stars to variety shows and the like. It must've been much easier for them to get ready for special performances.

Date: 2009-11-01 07:42 pm (UTC)I think that's because of Wide News (entertainment news program) following Big Bang to their sets of their photo shoots and stuff.
Inki is the best music show in my opinion and it is the last music show of the week
I agree. I still think its sound quality is below KBS and its stage settings are below KBS AND MBC, but the content is most important and SBS always has badass lineups...like when they had the reggae version of "I Don't Care" for 2NE1, the fun MC version of "10 out of 10" for 2PM, etc. They always try to change it up instead of just having the artist perform the song.
