With the Wonder Girls starting this week, followed by f(x), and After School right behind them next week, 2NE1 and B2ST will also be coming back in the same month. As the latter two haven’t released any finalized dates yet, lesser known artists have no choice but to schedule their debuts or comebacks right alongside them. Also fighting for their share of the pie are Dal Shabet, Boyfriend, and ZE:A, who are scheduled for comebacks as well, and various rookie artists and groups.
….

Music programs are also stressed with the inflation of top groups. With everyone achieving considerable accomplishments on the charts and rising as one of the ‘top groups’, there are more and more popular groups to cater to.

Another official stated, “When we call the music program PDs to discuss comeback preparations, the first thing we hear is a deep sigh. They’re always calling us to cut down our songs further. There are so many popular artists that rookies have to cut their songs down significantly.”
