BLACKPINK Faces Fan Backlash Following Recent Shocking Results

BLACKPINK is facing controversy over their latest SBS Inkigayo voting results.

The group got a shockingly low score that has fans and netizens talking. A viral post pointed out that BLACKPINK was “crushed” in voting by the group Hearts2Hearts, losing 1:9 not long ago. This time, although the score gap was smaller, BLACKPINK still couldn’t clinch a win.

The viral post on Pann captured the frustration:

“It really feels like a lot of people are leaving the BLACKPINK fandom lately.
Just look at the voting scores. Not long ago they went up against Hearts2Hearts and got completely crushed 1:9, and it’s still the same now. This time the score gap between the three teams wasn’t that big, so it was one of those situations where you only find out after the votes are revealed, but the voting numbers still ended up like that.”

As the situation unfolded, fans and netizens slammed the idea that music show trophies are the only measure of success. They pushed back hard, pointing to BLACKPINK’s massive global influence.

Fan Responses

Some of the strongest comments include:

“If you had to choose between getting a No.1 on a music show vs. becoming a group at BLACKPINK’s level even without winning on music shows, your fave group would pick the latter too lol. Hey, your fave would be crying right now lol.”

“LOL I sincerely hope your fave becomes a group that keeps winning No.1 on Korean music shows in the future!! Not a group like BLACKPINK that ranks No.1 in everything — digital charts, album sales, tours, ads, followers, subscribers, Gallup rankings, brand reputation — nope, just a group that wins No.1 on domestic music shows!! I truly wish that for you!! LOL. Best wishes!!”

“Sorry, but for BLACKPINK fans it’s just a one-click response. ‘So which group has surpassed BLACKPINK’s career? Which group can confidently say they’re more successful than BLACKPINK?’ That one line ends the conversation lol.”

“I’ve been asking this for five years — can someone answer? Which girl group has better overall digital results than BLACKPINK? Which ones have bigger tours? Which ones sell more albums? Which ones have more YouTube subscribers? Which ones have more Instagram followers? Which ones get treated better by global luxury brands? Which ones get mentioned more overseas? Which ones consistently rank high on Gallup and brand reputation rankings like BLACKPINK? Huh? Who is it? I’ve been asking for five years… answer me lol. I’ll keep asking until someone answers.”
