ARMY Shuts Down Toronto K-Pop Radio Station, Because They Don’t Want Other K-Pop Groups Getting Fame
Hits 93 Toronto, Canada’s most followed radio station, has shut down their planned K-Pop hour due to some vocal fans.
The radio station wanted to help promote both well-known and smaller K-Pop artists in their region.
When I posted the Tweet, I did not intend to offend. In fact, I intended to help promote bigger acts and smaller acts from Korea and beyond, during that K-POP hour.

However, due to a mass outcry from some ARMYs, the station decided not to hold their K-Pop hour.
I and the team at Hits 93 Toronto, understand (and appreciate), the comments sent to us. As such, we have decided to yield your warnings, and pull the plug on this week's 'Where Did It Chart' and the K-POP hour.

Some ARMYs said other artists would be taking advantage of BTS’s hard work in promoting in North America.

They thought the artists that Hits 93 Toronto would be playing on their station would be getting a “free ride” into breaking into North America.
Vote no, ask for one hour of BTS. Sorry if this is rude, but we didn't work this hard to give the entire industry a free ride. https://t.co/eqOWv1iVJG

Because of this, no K-Pop artists will have their songs played on the radio station any time soon.
