Music Bank controversy


Le Sserafim's win on the May 13 broadcast of KBS's Music Bank was met with controversy after allegations of score manipulation surfaced. According to Segye Ilbo, the program received complaints regarding fellow first place nominee Lim Young-woong's score of zero in the broadcast category. The program initially claimed that his song "If We Ever Meet Again" was not played on any of their digital content, therefore accumulating zero points in the category; however, it was pointed out that it was in fact played on several KBS Radio stations.[59] On August 24, producers of the show were charged for manipulating scores.[60]
