Family Outing Criticized For Favoritism

[heroismine.livejournal.com]

If it’s not enough that Family Outing’s October 15 episode’s rating dropped during the second half of the show, viewers and netizens are now causing chaos on the show’s message boards about the apparent “favoritism” of the show’s two female guests.

The ratings of the show dropped when viewers realized that the episode would focus more on After School’s UEE, as opposed to 2NE1’s Sandara Park.

Fans of the popular girl group, 2NE1 and its member, Dara, protest saying that they barely see the girls and Dara nowadays, what with their hiatus, while After School’s UEE has CFs, broadcasts, plus a drama where her fans can see her.

2NE1 fans protest, saying that, “The last broadcast of Family Outing was biased on UEE, and as Dara fans, we are offended by it.”

They added, saying, “Sandara Park is afraid of dogs, and does not eat egg yolks, but the show’s producers did not care about this or even consider it.”

Korea has actually seen little of Dara Park and the girls of 2NE1 apart from me2day updates and some performances of the girls in universities, and of course, Park Bom’s solo stages for the promotion of her single, “You and I.” Viewers and fans have noticed that Dara had lesser interactions with the members of the show’s family and lesser screen time, and this, unfortunately, caused their ire.

Some fans say that they are actually tired of seeing UEE everywhere, as evidenced by her solo CFs and a recent drama, not to mention her group activities also. This fact gained a lot of criticism for the show for focusing on the guest who is more active currently.

lOL, James.

I was surprised about the dogs too.
But its a bit too early to decide that Uee
had the most camera time since their is a episode left.

[miinutes.livejournal.com]

So... what's new?

No, really, FO normally does a bad job of letting the guest shine unless they're super sunbaes. I haven't seen this episode, but most guests tend to be low-participating. :\ So I don't think the show's being biased...

[bubble-monkey9.livejournal.com]

lame. For some reason, the more people hate on Uee, the more I like her lmao

[miinutes.livejournal.com]

Me too. I mean I'm not her fan, but she does a great job with acting Yoo He Yi (and I hate it when people say they hate her because of her character). I end up defending her a LOT... ^^ Though she does get a ridiculous amount of attention. I love Gahee and Becka so idrgi.

[daesung-fanatic.livejournal.com]

....WTH.....

...I wonder if I am the ONLY person who doesn't pay attention to who gets more camera time than others?

...why can't the fans just watch FO for the funny and hilarity?

[fuuism.livejournal.com]

Yup, that's me too. Even the regulars have a high unbalance of spotlight time but this is not what the show is about.

[fuuism.livejournal.com]

I always felt the editing in FO was supposed to favor what ends up being funnier instead of trying to balance who will appear the most.

[gabbeeee.livejournal.com]

THIS. they might have edited dara out coz she was boring for all we know

[duriancake.livejournal.com]

netizens seem to love hating on UEE. though to be honest, this is nothing new. :\ a lot of FO episodes with two or more guests tend to focus more on one guest. i haven't really seen much outrage over it till now, or i might just be slow?

eh.

[ricey11.livejournal.com]

I try not to watch FO until RSS puts out the subs so I can't exactly comment on whether or not they're bias.
But since it's FO, they probably did lean towards one guest vs the other which is why I am surprised they have all the cast members and two extra guests to begin with.

Honestly, who freakin cares? o_O

Some fans say that they are actually tired of seeing UEE everywhere,

Welcome to kpop imo ^^. If you don't like an idol, you're bound to dislike her/him even more showing how they are pimped out to the max. I'm not particularly fond of that method but hey it works.

[filmsession.livejournal.com]

i don't ca-a-a-a-a-are.

[livvyxo.livejournal.com]

lmfao THIS

[tainee.livejournal.com]

Lolling at the news so much because... just what. Just blink or close your eyes if you're tired of seeing her when she appears.

At the same time, I do kind of feel their pain with ~too much Uee~ too. (But this is kind of ridiculous to bring up on something like this)

[visual-jaeho.livejournal.com]

Like it's FO's fault that the 2NE1 girls are not on more variety shows, if you really need to blame someone for not seeying the girls enough then blame yg :/

[wrongbyright.livejournal.com]

This!

FO, THE NETIZENS ARE WATCHING YOU

Holy shit just the preview shot scared me. ;____;

[deazaskia.livejournal.com]

IDK, maybe for those who live in Korea are srsly sick seeing UEE everywhere. poor UEE if she reads this.

[krispy-bacon.livejournal.com]

lol I've always been sick of UEE as much as I like her character in YB

Taekyung gif XD<3

YES. THIS SFM

[joongified.livejournal.com]

Reminds me of the time Taeyeon & Hongki come on the show . .
They completely ignored Hongki & focused on Taeyeon. :|

[paperlet.livejournal.com]

god i hated that episode

[kamoku-ayame.livejournal.com]

i got sick of uee a few months ago
now it's kind of normal to see her everywhere

[stoplightheist.livejournal.com]

I skimmed through the episode and noticed.
But NBD. It's not like they can air all 48 hours or however long the filming is.

In general, I hate it when there are 2 guests at the same time.
It's probably not done purposely or maliciously, but one always gets put the side.
Taeyeon and Hongki.
GD and the other guy.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

There was someone else as a guest in GD episode?

[prdarkstar.livejournal.com]

This is so stupid and I really feel bad for UEE. She's not only getting hate because of a freaking fictional character she's portraying but this.

Family Outing always focuses on the people who are bringing in the laughs and Dara was really shy at first. Way to overreact.

[pumpkinskin.livejournal.com]

as with any variety show
if you're dull
you get edited out

[xcherryblossomx.livejournal.com]

UEE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DARA
ANYTIME
ANYDAY

seriously she is more talented than Dara

[aunts.livejournal.com]

A++++++++++++++ AGREEING SO HARD.

[ninjasu.livejournal.com]

god i love UEE.
people hate her more and more so my love can grow.
fo realz.
i dont understand the hate.i really dont.

I WANT HER FACE TO BE EVERYWHERE. BAHA

plus.
They added, saying, “Sandara Park is afraid of dogs, and does not eat egg yolks, but the show’s producers did not care about this or even consider it.”

I lold a bit.freaky netizens.
love her too. dara = win

[sya-fhya.livejournal.com]

maybe most scenes with Dara in it were boring so they had to cut them out? heck who knows.

and do they really think the PD would watch, read & learn all shizz about Dara including the dog & egg yolk thing?

[nicooyo.livejournal.com]

You'd think there would've been more Dara considering how everyone on Family Outing seems to love 2NE1.
