During the recently aired episode of SBS MTV's '2016 Dream Concert,' fans couldn't help but notice that among the lineup of idols, IOI were completely edited out.
Though Kim Se Jung's solo stage was included, IOI was the only group to have their name omitted when the groups were introduced in the beginning.

The omission of IOI's name could be viewed as simple editing error; however, the bigger problem was that IOI's performance was not included at all in the show.
IOI fans rose up in arms to complain about the unfair distribution of screen time, commenting, "They abruptly canceled [on IOI] for a radio show appearance before because there was 'not enough space for them on the show,' but now they completely edited out their performance," "Are they shunning [IOI] because they debuted through a cable channel," "Why are they doing this to IOI after using their music as background music?" and many more.
What are your thoughts? Do you believe that the editing out of IOI's performance was a simple mistake or intentionally done?
