The show "Singer 2024" has been incredibly popular lately, and Xu Yanyu has been watching it regularly.

The first episode of "Singer 2024" invited two singers from the Western music scene.

The two foreign singers stunned the audience, taking first and second place respectively.

The fig leaf covering up the domestic entertainment industry has been completely torn off.

Viewers on Weibo were vying for the best singers to represent their country on stage.

Then, after counting and counting, the singers who are both talented and famous are either holding concerts or participating in other programs, so their schedules are simply too full.

Just two weeks ago, Xu Yanyu was thoroughly enjoying watching the drama unfold.

Then came the most exciting part: yesterday, Friday, was the premiere of the second episode of "Singer 2024".

The second episode had just finished airing when domestic viewers were once again restless.

Damn it, H TV is shameless; they actually hired a singer from Korea to cause trouble.

This dancer named Kim Soo-mi is not yet a solo singer.

They came and immediately secured third place.

It's so embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing. Singing isn't even their main profession, yet they can't even compare to domestic singers.

H TV station really went too far this time.

When news of Kim Soo-mi winning third place in the Korean music competition, crushing a host of Korean singers, reached Korea, Korea ridiculed Korea.

Now, whenever a Chinese person logs onto an external website using a Chinese IP address, they are ridiculed by those Koreans.

Xu Yanyu clicked on the comments out of curiosity and saw that someone had posted comments from foreign websites in the comments section.

[Korean netizen XXD: "Singer 2024" proves that Korea's music industry is at least fifty years behind Korea's. Kim Soo-mi is just a third-tier star in Korea's entertainment industry.]

[Korean netizen LOJ: Kim Soo-mi isn't even a proper idol. Are you saying that singers from your Korea can't even compare to Kim Soo-mi?]

[Korean netizen Kimura Ren: Korean music variety shows actually allow foreign singers to participate? Isn't the Korean entertainment industry supposed to be strictly limited to its own artists?]

[Sangguo netizen Fujinobayashi: Many songs from South Korea are adaptations of ours. South Korean songs wouldn't even make a ripple in the global market.]

[Zhao Ming from the Flower Kingdom: We all know that our country, Goryeo, is the strongest. In fact, the strongest country in the world is Goryeo, since the whole world belongs to you.]

[LOJ@花国赵鸣, a netizen from Korea: Our Korea has a long and rich history, including the Goryeo Sang and the Goryeo Zongzi Festival...]

With such a profound cultural heritage, it's not surprising that Korea surpasses you in the field of music.

[Huaguo Qiantong: Pshaw!]

...

The screenshot taken by the netizen only showed a small part, but it was precisely this small part that aroused everyone's sense of collective honor.

The Weibo account of the "Singer 2024" program team has been trending on social media.

Viewers left comments at the bottom of the page, some criticizing the production team, some criticizing the contestants from the Flower Country, and some recommending singers.

Did the directors of "Singer 2024" write the script with their feet? Are you trying to bring in singers from all over the world to trample on the music scene?

On the contrary, I think the director did a great job. Those domestic celebrities need to be taught a lesson; they should open their eyes to the world. Stop thinking about auto-tuning and showing off all the time. It's time for the Chinese music scene to rise up.

We don't have many truly talented singers in China; we need to quickly find some strong performers to fill the gap.

We're being relentlessly mocked by Korean netizens online, and we can't even refute them because what they're saying is true. It's incredibly frustrating.
