Choi Sung Bong’s moving rendition on Korea’s Got Talent induces tears and controversy

On tvN’s audition program “Korea’s Got Talent”, the audience was moved by Choi Sung Bong, believing that he had a rough childhood with no musical training.

On the show, he stated, “When I was three years old, I went to an orphanage, but because of the beatings, I ran away when I was five and lived alone by selling gum on the streets. For ten years, I lived like a fly. I was eventually able to graduate elementary and middle school through qualification examinations and the first thing that I ever liked was music.”

It may have seemed like he had a tough childhood, but when netizens researched and found out that he actually was musically trained from attending the Dae Jun vocal department, controversy arose. His side defended this by saying that he had already revealed this information previously.

Although he had also revealed that he took the qualification exams for elementary school and junior high school before graduating from an arts high school, this statement was edited out of the broadcast.

Even though he touched the hearts of viewers with his beautiful voice, the editing by the producers caused him to become embroiled in a controversy that left viewers both confused and angry after discovering that he had graduated from an arts high school.

“Korea’s Got Talent” producers emphasized that they did not edit it that way intentionally and aired the full interview on June 5th at 9:50 PM KST. Producers stated, “We merely wanted the episode to flow. We did not have any other intentions. We have decided to broadcast the interview in full because we felt that there was room for misunderstanding by the public.”

They continued, “It is true that Choi Sung Bong passed his qualification exams in order to enter Daejun Arts High School, but he was not able to attend classes because of his financial difficulties. The fact that he graduated from an arts high school was already known by not only the producers and judges, but by the audience members as well. We didn’t feel that it was necessary to include his high school career when people were already so touched with his singing, which is why we cut it out.”

In the video, Choi explained, “I did enter an arts high school, but there was no instructor. I wanted to drop out, but instead, I attended classes by myself and studied alone.”

Regardless of the small controversy, you can’t deny his talent, Choi Sung Bong amazed the audience with his great voice by singing ‘Nella Fantasia’ on “Korea’s Got Talent”.

MonsterMG of ‘Korea’s Got Talent’ steals routine from ‘America’s Best Dance Crew’

On June 13th, dance crew ‘Poreotics‘ (the season five champions of “America’s Best Dance Crew“) uploaded a video onto their official Facebook page of a Korean dance crew named ‘Monster MG‘, who allegedly stole their routine for tvN’s “Korea’s Got Talent“.

Poreotics wrote, “WE MADE IT TO KOREA We’re actually pretty flattered LOL. Big ups to DiamondUpDown for putting this together for us.”

The comparison video pits the two routines side-by-side, and viewers immediately noticed that MonsterMG plagiarized Poreotics’ choreography.

“Korea’s Got Talent” Twitter responded to the claims by writing, “We have taken action ^^ The producers are very upset with the situation right now. They’ve already made it to the semi-finals so we will discuss the policies with the producers and tvN before we make any further announcements.”

UPDATE

=======

They wrote again on Facebook, “In regards to the Korea’s Got Talent Vid: Thanks to everyone for sending the links to us and and letting us know what’s going on. We appreciate your support! However, we know that dancing always stems from somewhere or someone and things like this happen all the time. We are extremely flattered that we are being recognized all the way in Korea ) Possible next stop?”
