One of the many lies that KBS told in this debacle is that the writing was actually “from February”– see here. It is unsurprising that this was a lie, but the original poster who prompted KBS to make the first offending statement has come back with proof that KBS’s position from May 17th was not from February at all.
This is a translation of her post at the KBS Viewer Bulletin:
I am the person who posted about JYJ-Music Bank matter. Head of the Variety Department, please announce an official explanation for your deeds.
I read the articles and your official statement and in it—
I sent my e-mail/writing on February 25, 2011.
But Why! Do you say that it was something that was a mere organization of a writing sent prior to February that took place only now?
The time at which I sent off the e-mail/writing was definitely after the court decision of February 17.
You are lying.
You have deleted my prior post, so I am posting again.
Please check.

2TV [Music Bank] Requesting the Answer and Reason Behind Why JYJ Cannot Appear on Broadcast
Viewer’s Opinion [Registered Date: 2011.2.25]
[Original post by viewer]
[KBS official response]
Prior to May 17, 2011, there was no correspondence regarding the February 25th writing. I received a phone call on May 17, 2011 and only then I received the e-mail/writing.
I had asked you the question on February 25th, after the February 17th court judgment, but why do you change your words as if you received my question before February?
As a fan and a regular viewer, I without fail want to receive an explanatory official announcement.
Make an official announcement.
Make an official announcement as to your position with regards to the lie.
I request very strongly.
JYJ is the representative Korean Wave star who bring prestige to the nation as honorary ambassadors and as artists.
But the content (of your announcement) that speaks of them as if they were an axis of evil is incomprehensible to someone who is a fan and a viewer.
From the contents of the court decisions, there were no reasons that JYJ should not be able to appear whatsoever. I also ask an official announcement of your position on your disregard for the court decisions.

wow, kbs. just wow.
Tag! You’re it ^___^
This is juicier than any soap drama … JYJ fan score 1000…. KBS, negative
Wow Wow Wow!! can’t wait what KBS is going to say about this!! and i want to know what the netizens’ response
Haha I love how fans learned so fast to screencap all evidence! I LOVE JYJ fandom!
i so agree with you!
Go Go Go!!!
JYJ fans fighto!!
Sooner or later those assholes will drown in their own pile of bullshit!!
@Shadow, ¿Is your frying pan ready, sweetheart?
They are always by my side babe~~~
Recently there are too many Assholes running around.
That means that we have to gather together a huge army.
mine too mine too
I created a frying pan machine! When you press on JYJ music comes out and it spins in a circle like an electric fan! mwhahaha
@phoenixia
COOL! We’re having to use our frying pans so much, that we’ll need replacements soon. Hahaha…I don’t think a day goes by that the frying pans don’t get mentioned somewhere! Thank you so much trolls & anti’s for giving us such a perfect weapon of smashing entertainment!
‘We’re having to use our frying pans so much, that we’ll need replacements soon’
So we need a new world tour to receive a brand new set of frying pans as gift? Maybe this time JYJ will give us something more resistent given that we are fighting so hard for them!
@ellis
“Maybe this time JYJ will give us something more resistent given that we are fighting so hard for them!”
Louis Vuitton nun-chaks?
Maybe a hammer with the logo ‘JYJ’?
@Lilibaiyu
Nunchuks?!! Yes please!!!
Hahaha…in reality violence makes me sick. I watched a Korean horror film the other day & barely got through it with the contents of my stomach intact! But for the likes of kbs & all the rest, I’m happy to take my place in the JYJ army & do my bit for the war.
K.BS JUST LOST ANOTHER GAME OF “GOTCHA! CAUGHT IN A LIE”
You look so dumb right now K.BS.
¡KBS Keeps Bull Shitting! It is an absolute and huge scandal.
As I said before, ¡SHAME OVER THEIR EMPTY HEADS!
This is too great, this fan has true spunk … KBS, keep shoveling out garbage “a.k.a illogical responses” because you’re only digging a bigger grave for yourself!
i dun understand ???
Remember KBS’s official statement? They said it was a response to a commenter (which is the original poster) about why JYJ is being denied to be broadcasted on national television. KBS said that the statement was written before the court ruling therefore implying that the commenter posted her question before 2/17, however the original commenter now reveals evidence that she posted her comment on 2/25. This means that KBS would have to had written their official statement after knowing about the court’s decisions. So they pretty much got caught red handed at lying to the public and manipulating info to ruin JYJ’s reputation.
@Emmi
“This means that KBS would have to had written their official statement after knowing about the court’s decisions. So they pretty much got caught red handed at lying to the public and manipulating info to ruin JYJ’s reputation.”
**sniff sniff** What’s that I smell? Yep. It’s grounds for a big fat winnable civil suit.
Can KBS get into a deeper pile of shit, I dunno…
Muahahahaha~~ best soap drama a la Ms Ripley of the year 2011!!~
The events that are continuously unfolding themselves are sooooooooooo interesting to watch~~ and brave and courageous individuals retaliating on the BS of this lousy station calls for lotsa BRAVOS!!!
The correct truth will triumph over the fabricated ones!
Yoohoo!!
KBS keeps on digging themselves a bigger hole..you REALLY thought the original poster wouldn’t call you on your lie? lol such fail..this is better than any drama you can watch on tv.
dang! they pissed her off.. sorry KBS.. that fan wont just sit in the corner and chew on your lies..
*Standing O*
Lesson1 : Dont treat all consumers dumb.
Lesson2 : When lying publicly, do it good.. hmmm… nah.. don’t lie at all..
Lesson3: When everything is already in trouble, the best damage control is to admit the truth and apologize..
Agree 100% 😀
Agree 200% 🙂
What’s this? Covering a lie with another big lie? LOL. And KBS have channel all over the world! And all over the world is laughing at their incompetency. Duh!!!!!
KBS, THE BIGGEST JOKE OF THE YEAR.
it’s very Ripley-like.. it’s just KBS is not the hero on this story.. so not expecting a happy ending for them though..
@jenknight18
AGREE!!
That means, when they shit once, they will continue to pile on more shits to cover up the original shit and then somemore….
Eeewww~ I’m grossing myself out!!
This is why KBS should not go against JYJ and JYJ fans because we are very loyal fans ^___^
KBS must LOVE egg all over their faces!! they must enjoy humiliation or they wouldn’t keep coming back for more!! RIPLEY’s BELIEVE IT OR NOT!! (new drama) kekeke ^_~
BRAVO to the terrific fan that had the guts to not lay down and play dead!! ♥
Oh snap!
shit just got real
This summarize everything that the boys went through this past year or so: “JYJ is the representative Korean Wave star who bring prestige to the nation as honorary ambassadors and as artists.
But the content (of your announcement) that speaks of them as if they were an axis of evil is incomprehensible to someone who is a fan and a viewer.”
JYJ forwards the name of their country to the world, and they are paid with disrespect, unfair treatment, and so on. As an international fan and consumer of k-entertainment, I am starting to ask myself many “WHYs”
Evidently, there are still people who don’t understand that in 2011 information travels at the speed of light throughout the planet earth, and the entire world can learn what is going on within minutes. Also, they don’t understand that the JYJ fandom is super smart, resourceful, and that JYJ fans come from different ages, genders, countries, socio-economic and cultural backgrounds.
The fan, who posted the comment, I guess knew that she had to keep the proof of her post just in case something like this would happen. What a smart woman!
I guess the lesson is: JYJ fans have to make sure that they keep their proofs for everything they do, because some people may continue the other way even when proof is in front of them.
I think Jaejoong won the MTVk sexiest k-pop idol. We still have Billboard, Ellen, Jeju… lets do some cultural “damage” and vote the boys on top of everything.
Lets do cultural damage mwhahaha! Fighting!
I cannot be more agree with you…THIS…THIS…THIS SHOULD BE A TOTAL POST here in JYJ3 🙂
@daebaksama
“We still have Billboard, Ellen, Jeju… lets do some cultural “damage” and vote the boys on top of everything.”
Sounds like a plan! Let’s do it.
lol.
KBS,
Hear, hear
If you want to lie, make bloody sure you wont get caught red handed, other wise you are making yourself a world laughing stock
LOL i’ve been reading and reading and yet not comment about all this KBS-CJES drama..’cause I KNOW IS NOT GOING TO END SOON…
Sooo….im just keep reading and reading and laughing and laughing with my popcorns XD
You can take the walk of shame any time now, KBS.
ooooohhhh, cant wait to see KBS’ response on this
to the original poster, thx u for coming forward again!!!
i’m confused. so someone tell me in “more” layman terms as to what happened…
the “she” …is “she” a fan or the ‘Head of JYJ Variety something”??? So confused.
and whatt happened? LOL i seriously am confused.
but im glad that there’s official proof that KBS was lying. we didn’t need proof to know that though.
She is a fan and she’s demanding to the Head of Variety Department of KBS to make official explanation. The involved department is that department but because its such a big issue it has become an issue for the whole KBS to officially act upon it. It’s JYJ so they should know the issue will reach national and even global level.
They should learn their lesson, Its’ really hard to mess up with JYJ and maybe even harder to mess up with a true JYJ fan. We are not easily fooled, those who say bitter words against JYJ , big chance JYJ fans will make them swallow back their bitter words.
@nina
“They should learn their lesson, Its’ really hard to mess up with JYJ and maybe even harder to mess up with a true JYJ fan. We are not easily fooled, those who say bitter words against JYJ ,”
Truer words were never spoken. We are NOT easily fooled. And once alerted to further monumentally STUPID wrongdoing, we are not likely to keep silent about it. In fact, we are MOST likely to broadcast it around the world, thus further embarrassing the Republic of S.Korea and its various official agencies and national broadcast media. We are not going away. In fact, our numbers are growing every day.
If you were smart, KBS, you’d be burning the midnight oil right now trying to figure out a way to gracefully END this. You’d be leaning on SME (and by extension AVEX) to wind up binding arbitration TOMORROW. You’d be saying to them, “we can’t cooperate with you any longer. Our reputations are at stake and we have an obligation to our shareholders.” Because at this point they are and you do.
Lolz, I was confuse too. I had to read the post twice to get the story.
Ok, in short, she is a jyj fan and avid viewer of kbs. She’s the one who originally posted the request of an explanation y jyj was not invited to music bank. She’s throwing her questions straight to the head if variety dept. And this head of variety dept replied saying he only got the mail/call on may 17. She rebutted saying her request was made in feb 25, after the courts decision on feb 17, but howcome he’s twisting his words and making it sound like she sent he request before feb.
I hope that helps a little ^^.
She’s also asking kbs to straighten up their post because the previos statement implies that jyj are evil people even though Jyj bring honor to sk as ambassadors and artists.
makes soo much more sensee!!!
thankk youuu!!!
& thanks everyone 🙂
IKR!! WTFREAK JYJ are NOT threats to the culture industry?? they have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. if anything, KBS is being a threat to the culture industry by preventing Korea’s national face/ & ambassadors (JYJ) from not promoting. only use them when it helps u right kBs? such selfish greed disgusts me
again, thanks for the explanation everyonee.there are still a few parts i don’t get, but thankss
The more they try to keep JYJ away from the people view, the more curious the people get about JYJ.
…and there will be the day when they practically beg JYJ to appear on their show and JYJ will be so busy -as usual- on another World Tour Concert~
KBS… caught s#%t face! LOL!
I’d like to buy the original poster drinks..or dinner….or just hug her/him(?) What a smart cookie….standing ovation!
very disappointed, KBS have me disappointed when not let BB sing 2 songs, but now I hate you, FALSE
http://hallyudream.blogspot.com/
i was disappointed as well… two of my favourite groups.
ahh..i just taught of another name for KBS..
Koreas Biggest Shame..well, after ShaMe Ent. ofcourse..kekeke
HAHAHA! U said it right! KBS just opened a whole new can of worms…they’re about to get a nice helping of the JYJ fandom. Love JYJ~
i would just like to say… uh… i… i still blame an internal server error.
that’s right, our computers… were undergoing maintenance…
… actually, one of our employees was playing “the beginning” album on their computer, and the awesomeness fried our entire computer system…
… and also made us go into a weird time warp, which means that our statement WAS actually released… in early… february…
*glance back to see SM staring me down*
so… yeah.
@KBS
“… and also made us go into a weird time warp, which means that our statement WAS actually released… in early… february…
*glance back to see SM staring me down*
so… yeah.”
Oh. Well, OK then. That’s what must have happened. That explains it.
Just fire a couple of underlings and let’s go home early.
@KBS
LOL!!!
Well what do you know. Was just waiting for this to happen. 8)
These corporate entities never cease to amaze me with their overall stupidity. Like wow, way to NOT see this coming! KBS(‘s Variety Department, at least) willingly dug its own grave. And filled it with crap. And just dived riiggghhht in there…
@hyo
“KBS‘s Variety Department willingly dug its own grave. And filled it with crap. And just dived riiggghhht in there…”
lolol They did–didn’t they? 🙂
This is fantastic!
what would be even greater is
if C-JeS come out with another great rebuttal
to KeepBullShitting further ‘official announcement’.
KBS IS IN DEEP SHIT!
Disgusting lies KBS.. we demand an apology for the offense!!!
The only “acceptable” response from KBS now is to beg JYJ to perform in Music Bank and so on!!!
Ougggh….KBS got slaps with frying pan in both cheek!!!!
ROTFL
KBS vs people power *JYJ fans all over the world*
SEE…..THE TRUTH HAS APPEARED……KBS, AGAIN…SHAME ON YOUUU…!!!
Chain of fools I tell you.
KBS, epic…FAIL!
KBS dig their own grave!!! u know what KBS, i’ll never ‘LOOKING’ at ur channel anymore!! if only jyj made their appearances on ur dem channel, i’ll change my stance~
Wow! Another checkmate!
