KBS has stated its stance regarding EXO Xiumin's absence from 'Music Bank'.
KBS genuinely appreciates the viewership’s support for "Music Bank" on the fourth episode. Having premiered in 1998, this show has consistently presented numerous artists’ performances each week, chronicling the evolution of K-pop throughout its history.
First, I want to describe the look of singer Xiumin. Before the show aired, the production team kept discussing whether he should be included. It seems they had differing views during these discussions regarding his participation or their initial expectations. ‘Music Bank’ welcomes performers from every agency and artist; thus, the final list is decided after taking into account numerous elements including stage setup and overall programming, following thorough communications with those aspiring to perform.
We appreciate your comprehension regarding the difficulty of accommodating all appearance requests owing to restricted broadcasting hours and production constraints. It pains me to see devoted fans eagerly awaiting Xiumin’s performance; thus, I am committed to ensuring more artists can interact with their fan base via Music Bank,” he stated additionally.
Previously, Xiumin's agency Won Hundred stated that "KBS isn't even answering our calls. Therefore, it’s unfeasible for Xiumin to make an unexpected appearance alongside artists from SM Entertainment on shows like 'Music Bank.'"
KBS stated that it is "unfounded and continually engaging with the agency."
Although the petitioner stated that "Xiumin's 'Music Bank' was merely 'unfounded,' " Xiumin's representatives requested a clear explanation regarding the alleged overlap with a particular agency. They sought a more open reply rather than just stating that Xiumin’s issue amounted to little more than a misunderstanding, nearly equivalent to a communications lapse, as per KBS's stance. The broadcaster asserted their authority over determining the status within South Korea’s television landscape and argued that they were never informed adequately about problems preventing Xiumin from appearing during ‘Comeback,’ an event outside regular programming schedules.
KBS responded in accordance with the viewer petition rule that petitions that have been agreed by more than 1,000 people must be officially answered. However, the controversy is expected to intensify by giving an ambiguous answer of 'Difference in Expectations' without explaining whether it is correct to mention a specific agency or by what criteria the artist is selected.
