The episode was also parodied ZEROBASEONE Kim Jiwoongcontroversy in which he allegedly cursed before a video call with a fan.
The episode’s YouTube recap was also met with criticism. Many criticized the show’s recent turn from comedic parodies to outright mockery.
- It’s a real comedy that no one found it problematic, from filming to airing.
- It’s been five months already and people are still insulting them more severely than criminals, when they haven’t even committed any crimes. Do you want to contribute to this mockery of female idols when they receive hate comments just by breathing? Do you want to create such low-level programs? LOL.
- You are celebrities too, so you can’t imagine what it feels like to receive criticism and then be made fun of.
- No, but those celebrities who are on the show, can they openly mock idols when they are in the same industry? You never know how things will end. And if you guys have similar jobs, you would know how painful it is to be the recipient of so much hate. I will never be able to pity them now if they ever receive hate and mockery in the future, knowing how they participated in all of this.
- Enough please. LOL you guys don’t even touch criminals but it seems like you’re targeting female idols because they’re easy targets? The people who find this funny and the authors of this are just SO incredibly smart.
