Back in April of this year, Chihoon left TO1 and terminated his contract with Wake One Entertainment. Turns out that was just the start of changes, as the company announced …

When you think about it, what would an Mnet survival show be without a manipulation controversy? It’s practically what they’re known best for, so it’s only appropriate that one arose …
