In case anyone misunderstand, the word "poisonous" in the article refer to a positive note. He tells the bitter truth rather than sweet lie. Other judges also thanked Eunkwang for saying things that they couldn't say out loud.

Poisonous in English is exactly that. There is no positive spin for this world. And instead of saying that it doesn't mean what it means, find the right word. Bad translation is not an excuse.

I'm so proud of him for standing his ground throughout the show. He doesn't give a f* if he sounds nitpicky (he's not) or strict because it's a competition and everyone is trying their best. He has to judge fairly. I found a korean edit where knets commented how strict he was but it was on a postive note as the other judges were too nice and too scared to be cancelled if they say something wrong as the contestants are already establised or known singers/idols. I love him more now. Argh CEO-nim❤

I think that having to be nitpicky shows that all the contestants have such a high level of basic skills that he can get into the details. What the judges focus on tells a lot about the level of contestants

He is the main singer for BTOB. His voice is crazy good. I believe he is giving a fair comment as a judge. I love his expressions, especially when the he hears singers giving their all to a song. He is just giving an honest opinion and encourages the trainees to do better.

Let's not forget that Eunkwang is a very jolly and friendly person, but it's another whole story when it comes to giving comments in a vocal-centered competition. He just doing his assigned job seriously. Not to mention, he is the main vocal of BTOB(Kpop Vocal King) and director of his former agency, so it's very understandable if he has a high standards. He just balanced the panel of judges, they were soft and he was strict. Moreover, wasn't Lisa of Blackpink a strict instructor and judge too on her former idol survival show?

Seoyeon of Gidle was making the Girl's Planet contestants cry afaik. Which is fair, I mean look at standard of singing these nugu idols have. They can't even lipsync correctly, let alone sing live. These older idols know that looks are only going to last for so long and there's a new group debuting every 2 days. . So, if u don't have the talent, once u cross your teens/20s, and grow "too old" for idol chasers, you'll end up as a hasbeen nobody with no future or career. And there's so many examples for that in past and current idol groups.

Note: As the owner of this video also notes, Eunkwang is being praised for his feedback. He's giving technical assessment that can help the contestant improve rather than a mere 'it's good' or 'it's bad'. His evaluation is fair, unbiased and justified. Harming the contestants is far from what he wants. He remains a supportive senior that would only want them to thrive. Don't worry melodies, he is not being cancelled and everyone is appreciating his sharp eye and commentary.

He's not being poisonous. He's a judge for a reason, being known in the industry as one of the best voices in the business. Eunkwang keeps a certain standard on himself for that reason and takes his job seriously. Of course, he will point out mistakes because he wants the singers to be the best that they can be by working on their flaws. Some of you do not understand how strict the Korean music industry is and the quality that they produce is the very reason why you're watching the show and why you're following some of the contestants. These people know what they're getting into and willingly showed up at least to get some exposure for their groups or themselves. So, some of you should stop being dramatic. They are stronger than you think.

In the latest episode his strict critique had helped some improve and he acknowledged that they had improved wich seamed to mean alot to them. I think he's fair and even if he is strict (wich i personally dont think he is) it's because he want the contestants to do well and grow as artists it's not malicious he's being constructive and educational wich with his background and knowledge is a great benefit to the contestants.

Honestly, I prefer this version of Eukwang. He is arguably one of best vocalists in kpop as of today, and the leader of one of the best vocal-based idol groups of 3Gen. He was a Director in charge of trainees at Cube (which has some of the best vocal talent in the industry). Also, he KNOWS how much idol-singers are looked down on compared to the regular singers, ESPECIALLY with all these recent controversies and accusations of lipsyncing and autotune overuse. So, of course, he is going to hold them to a higher standard. And as far as absolutely railing on Yeo One is concerned, that is his dongsaeng. If he goes easy on his own brother, he can't be a fair judge to others. He HAD to (justifiably) make and example of his brother, so the others know that he is serious about his job and criticisms.
@soraeverblue8 ай бұрын
Eunkwang is strict with his comments without having any malicious intentions to put down the contestants. He gave valid points, he gave compliments on parts he found good, and pointed out the parts that need to be improved. This way of judging is surely with the intention of improving the contestants' performances
@friedsoybean7 ай бұрын
I think he knows very well the "burden" he carries as one of the best singer and also a leader of a great vocal group, he understand the responsibility that he won't lower his standard and sugarcoating. Also it's a good "use" of his idol seniority because Melody is a secure and tolerant fandom, his group and himself won't get hurt much from backlash of saying the truth ❤
@nikosaronim8 ай бұрын
I don't think it's a bad thing for him to be stricter. Despite the success of countless idols on the industry, they remain to be looked down upon because some believe them to not be "real musicians". His advice can help them improve especially for those are not able to obtain resources for training. And honestly a good wake up call for them to show and prove that idols can be good musicians on a professional level.
