Other netizens chimed in and commented:

[+398 / -14] Honestly no one can compare to these groups at their best. BIGBANG needs no introduction, EXO’s ‘Growl,’ SHInee’s ‘Lucifer,’ ‘Ring Ding Dong,’ BEAST’s ‘Fiction,’ INFINITE’s ‘Be Mine’ …. I think back then half of Korea were their fans lol. No one even came close to touching them at that point…

[+324 / -772] Let me shorten it for you. You keep rambling on about INFINITE but in album sales BTS who you claim is way less popular OWNED them.

[+299 / -33] Are you crazy saying BTS has overcome INFINITE and BEAST….People probably don’t even realize Bangtan is a boy group name.

[+228 / -375] Stop saying Bifinite, it’s sick
