It was claimed that CBX, a member of the INB100 label under One Hundred, was banned from appearing on KBS2's Music Bank. The reason cited was that, due to conflicts of interest, it was impossible for them to appear alongside artists from their former agency, SM Entertainment. However, KBS denied the claim, stating it was "not true" and issued a conflicting statement.
On the 4th of March, One Hundred claimed that Xiumin, who is set to release his solo album Interview X on March 10th after a 2.5-year hiatus, was refused an appearance on Music Bank.
According to One Hundred, "Since Xiumin is releasing a solo album after a long time, our staff made several attempts to meet with the broadcasting station to ensure he could show a great stage to his fans on a music program, but KBS has been unresponsive to our attempts and has not been answering our calls."

This situation is said to have led to a conflict with SM, and One Hundred claims that KBS banned his appearance under SM's influence. However, KBS denied the claim, stating it was "not true" and explaining that the Music Bank production team had been in continuous communication with Xiumin's agency.
Furthermore, artists from One Hundred's label, including Baekhyun and Taemin (who is under Big Planet Made) and Bad Villain, were not refused appearances on Music Bank. If One Hundred’s claims were true, it would have been difficult for former SM artists like Taemin and Baekhyun to appear on Music Bank. Moreover, Bad Villain's activities overlapped with Red Velvet's Irene and NCT Dream’s schedules. Xiumin also worked as a host on KBS2's Make Mate One from May to July of last year.
