[+300, -6] The point of satire is meant to ridicule, it’s not a debate “which one” it is. I bet foreigners would laugh at us thinking we’re too cautious to even perform satire correctly with this “debate” going on at all.

[+246, -2] Idol fans have no problem hating on everyone else until it’s their oppa and nuna’s turn ㅋㅋㅋ

[+93, -3] Here’s an idea for you… maybe don’t give people a reason to parody you? And maybe be grateful that you’re relevant enough to be parodied at all? What’s the issue here? No one told you to perform like that at Coachella if you don’t like being parodied for it.

[+36, -2] Sometimes I wonder if fans are undercover antis with the way they act

[+13, -4] Since when did idols become no-touch God territory? It’s not like the source of this parody never happened.

[+10, -1] They’re reaping what they sowed. And it’s not like anyone’s asking fans to enjoy the parody.

[+9, -0] If they had done well at Coachella, then perhaps they wouldn’t be parodied at all right now

[+9, -3] Fans know what the point of SNL is, right? Why so sensitive over it… especially when we know they’ll be laughing at parodies of other people, just not their own group

[+8, -0] There’s no “debate” about this segment. Other than their fans, everyone laughed hard and enjoyed it

[+5, -1] Perhaps Hybe got their feelings hurt? ㅋㅋ

[+4, -1] I would understand calling this controversial if they parodied something tragic about the group but… they did something wrong and got hate for it, and it was parodied, so where’s the issue here? ㅋㅋ

[+3, -0] Even the president isn’t immune from being parodied, who does an idol think they are?
