'What about TeStar's Rookie of the Year award, again?'

I could already guess what the post was about but I clicked on it anyway.

=========================

[Wouldn't it be TeStar who will win the Rookie of the Year award?]

: Shouldn't they be seen more as an extension of IdolCo rather than rookies who debuted normally? I think they should be viewed more as a variety show project. 

Honestly, they're stealing opportunities from other new groups.

=========================

As I expected.

'I roughly expected this reaction.'

Wasn't this what could be heard since we were active at the same time as VTIC? The fact that we were destroying the social ecosystem.

It was honestly understandable.

'<IdolCo> is quite popular.'

Since we were a group that debuted with the halo of such a popular audition program, it wasn't strange to hear things like 'this was the tyrannical authority of a broadcasting company and a large conglomerate.'

However, the contestants suffered terribly while filming the show, and in the first place, the higher-ups thought the show would fail at first and almost gave up, so it was a bit unfair to be cursed at.

'Anyway, the public opinion about this isn't strong enough to change the tide.'

Looking at the comments, the atmosphere was embarrassingly one-sided to say that people were fighting about this.

- That 'variety show' is an idol audition, so what are you talking about? ;

└ Isn't it cheating because it's an idol audition show...?

└ What kind of cheating is that? Anyone who sees your comment would think that idol audition shows are illegal or something ㅋㅋㅋ

- Ah, what is this? I was about to write a long reply to answer seriously but this person is an aggro?

//TN: In case someone has forgotten, aggro means meaningless attention-seeking behavior, so basically 'attention whore'.

- There are so many idols from audition programs, so should all of their debuts be treated as fraudulent? Is it because Idol Co. did so well?

- Seems that you like a group that lost the Rookie of the Year award this year, fighting!

- I also think the Idol Co. program itself is deformed, but it doesn't mean that the TeStar kids don't have the right to get the award.

- What a reach *clap clap*

The latter half of the comments were practically making a mockery of the original poster.

'Hmm, I don't really like this atmosphere.'

It was probably right that this post was just an aggro, but the problem was that there were some comments ridiculing the performances of other rookie groups that debuted this year.

They didn't seem to be TeStar's fans but just some people who found mocking others to be fun.

- Well, among the newcomers this year, even the best ones barely sold 80,000 copies... ㅋㅋ
