Big Bang banned from 'Inkigayo' as a penalty for G-Dragon and T.O.P missing a Zeigen 

Big Bang banned from \'Inkigayo\' as a penalty for G-Dragon and T.O.P missing a show

Fans watching SBS\' \'Inkigayo\' must have noticed, but Big Bang was absent from the lineup.

G-Dragon and T.O.P were not present during their 1st place stage on May 24th due to MV filming, the \'Inkigayo\' staff had penalized the group by banning them entirely from the show. Music industry insiders said, "It has always been problematic when a 1st place group does not appear on the live broadcast unless they had an unavoidable reason. Big Bang\'s case is the same. They might have been filming their MV, but the staff must have seen it as a problem as unfair to the rest of the groups."

YG Entertainment artists had only performed on \'Inkigayo\' for a while until very recently when Jinusean and Big Bang started promoting on other music shows as well. Fans are furious at the decision, also pointing out that there was unfairness last week during voting as well. "Bang Bang Bang" was added to the voting list 40 hours after the song was released. The staff had reasoned that situation was nothing abnormal, as they had always updated every Wednesday and only on Wednesday. However, the result was that SHINee won the show last week even though Big Bang was #1 on charts. 

Currently, \'Inkigayo\' has not yet announced a winner to the 14th\'s show and will be announcing the winner between

EXO and Big Bang today on their home page. As Big Bang has two more songs to promote after "Bang Bang Bang", it seems like something has to be worked out soon.

Is that really necessary, Inki? What\'s wrong with you? Did you get paid by someone for all this mess? However that was a stupid excuse, really... aaaah, so disappointed. Shame on you, SBS. But well, since you banned them, with all the tours and tight scheds, at lease Bigbang has another time to take a rest.

they should get kicked out of every music show, omo they must be so embarrassed 

I don\'t see why Big Bang has to be banned. It\'s not the first time that one or two members of any group have been absent from the show, yet when Big Bang does it, they get banned ENTIRELY?? How unreasonable.

You will See SbS VIPs won\'t shut up it wasn\'t that big of a problem to ban them from the entire show, who paid you ?

Inkigayo being shady..perhaps jealous that YG is now on good terms with KBS. Anyway BB still slay ^^

Because YG family only perform in Inkigayo and MCD, Inkigayo think so highly of themselves and also maybe because KBS and YG dispute are ok now they get jealous. WTF!! Really?!

INKIGAYO WILL FEEL THE LOSS OF BIGBANG FROM THEIR MUSIC SHOW!(n)

Don\'t rush advocating for BigBang. You don\'t know what they feel about this decision. Maybe they are perfectly compliant with it, maybe they agree with the decision. Let\'s wait for their response.

BIGBANG apologised twice at the end yet they banned BIGBANG? Taeyang and Daesung look tired during encore stage.. I think they did their best to be present tho. What is wrong with Inkigayo seriously???

i know it\'s for the fans but frankly, big bang does not need the music shows to validate their greatness. we all know they are the best artists in kpop. 

they do know that if they don\'t let big bang perform, their ratings will drop and they will suffer some sort of backlash from the public right??

WTF Ingikayo?! What kind of reason was that. BB doesn\'t deserve this kind of treatment. 

Inkigayo needs to be smarter in coming up with excuses, so sorry but if this excuse is valid, almost all those popular groups are supposed to be banned already.

For now I think SBS is being delusional! But if the other groups get banned again in the future for the same reason, then I started to think that SBS is really being serious yet still stupid.
