		<description>I actually find nothing wrong with this system. It&#039;s true that these celebrities just need their names to get what others have to work hard - extremely hard, and sometimes even shed blood - to get - a ticket to the university, and it seems unfair. However, if we look at it this way, it would somehow be reasonable: the chance of being debut in korea is even less than the chance to get admitted to the university. Once a star successfully debuted and has his/her name known, isn&#039;t that recognition of his/her talent? Of course you can say that it is attributed to the maneger, the staffs etc, but come on, without talent how can they be a star in the first place, especially when kpop/kdrama fans are becoming more and more careful in their idol selections? So if an art university can admit a student with excellent record, why can&#039;t they admit a star - whose talent has been recognized by the community? I think the question is not &quot;Is it fair or unfair to admit celebrities into universities?&quot;, but &quot; How should the system work to preserve the fairness?&quot;. I think they should have stricter conditons ( like the singers must have an award), that&#039;s all. 
That&#039;s just my opinion though, and sorry if it&#039;s a bit hard to follow.</description>

		<description>I believe that this doesn&#039;t happen...
Chang Min-shi is a hardworking man, and he passed &#039;cause he has try very hard^^
I love him^^
i&#039;m not trying to offend, i just think that is not fair to say that they passed because they are famous!!
In my country there&#039;s a singer that didn&#039;t pass...
Maybe i&#039;m just defending him.... well ... xD</description>
