BTS fans complaints were due to BTS’s title track “Boy With Luv” not appearing on the chart.
According to BTS fans, “Inkigayo” previously revealed that the time period used to determine rankings was the week starting from the Monday two weeks prior to the broadcast until the Monday one week prior to the broadcast. Because the most recent episode aired on April 21, the rankings should have been determined using data from April 8 to 15. As BTS’s new album was released on April 12, the album’s performance from April 13 to 15 should have been reflected on the charts.
In response to these criticisms, a source from SBS stated, “Last week’s rankings came out the way they did because there was a difference between the data-gathering period and the period of [BTS’s] promotions. I believe the rankings came out as they did because there are many different detailed criteria for the rankings.” On calculating the rankings, the source added, “Other places also do not reveal their detailed criteria for calculating [the rankings], not only ‘Inkigayo.’”

Everyone knows that INKIGAYO is the stronghold of YG! Manipulation was made, because his female group BlackPink did not even get the fourth place in Korean chats, YG wanted to give "a" victory to their girls !! But they forgot that BTS was in the day ... now the cheating was more explicit!
