As soon as this statement was released, the internet was in an uproar. The discussions were intense, and the forums filled up quickly.
[To be honest, I don't think this is serious enough to warrant a withdrawal from the contest.]
[Usually when contestants withdraw from variety shows, it's because they can't continue due to health reasons. This kind of spat normally just blows over. Why quit the contest over this?]
[I've never seen someone so openly humiliated and still stay in the contest. What are they waiting for, New Year's?]
Anyway, the voices online were a mixed bag, with everyone arguing their own point of view.
After much discussion, someone claiming to be a staff member of the show leaked: [Actually, the withdrawal was because GXX had a run-in with the deputy director of the show. To avoid bad press, the production team covered it up, but that person had to quit, along with the deputy director who got kicked out as well.]
