SS501 fans questioned 'Inki Gayo' production team's grading method for No.1 ranking.

SBS Music program 'Inki Gayo' was broadcast on 1 November, group SS501 was ranked 2nd. SS501 fans were not able to accept the result and wrote petition letters to request the production team to open to the public their grading method.

The section which received strong objections from SS501 fans was the album sales calculation. Regarding this, fans have grouped together to post petition entries in 'Inki Gayo' audience message board.

SS501 fans specifically listed down in details to reqeuest 'Inki Gayo' production team to released the album sales calculation chart to the public to compare which singer's album generate the higher sales.

In last friday's Music Bank, SS501 & SHINee sales figures had a difference of 3000 points.

Also SS501 album sales calculation must include the normal and special edition, fan had questioned whether the production team had removed the sales figures for the limited edition.

SS501 fans revealed they definitely don't accept the result of being ranked No.2 and left messages in 'Inki Gayo' audience message board that they wanted to get a fair rating and continued to post 'release album sales calculation detail' related postings. SS501 fans and audiences doubts are continuing seriously.

SS501 fans could not agreed and have doubts for the calculation methods determining No.1 ranking and also album sales calculation method. If 'Inki Gayo' do not make a explanation soon, the dispute and questioning between SS501 will be unending.

Wow, I am shocked that green peas are protesting, because triples are usually very calm. Haiz, I don't think the guys would like us to be like this. Let the results stay cause we want to win via true merits. TripleS have been so patient so far, we should see how this week goes yeah. I just hope this will not create any negative publicity for SS501.

Ofcourse we want they to win mutizen award etc..but i'm not sure about the protest thing.. Just afraid,it will give bad impact to our boys image.

Same as belle..i'm quite shocked too. Triple S are usually always calm.

Hope this problem will end well.

i feel so strongly about this issue but i'm gonna let this pass. (this is really stressful, btw!)

Green Peas have always been cool and level-headed but sometimes i think there's a need to clarify things. I have to say "protest" is such a strong word - let's just take it as the "TS' passion". Remember, 1 year and 7 months is a long time... (hay, fangirl can't hold back!)

good thing, we're celebrating our Shy Prince's bday, there's something to level things out. (didn't you notice that after TAiwan Persona he's not so shy anymore?)

Cagali, thanks much dear and sorry for the long comment. i just had to let it out! :)

Let the sales speaks for itself... i think Rebirth Album has a strong selling capacity. I can't find one here in the Philippines yesterday. It was hot as pancake last week. I was told by the record store to check next week for the next shipping. :)
