Oh dear. NHK might have attempted something risky - attempting to invite Korean gropus - except that Korea also have their own end-of-the-year music festivals, and I think NHK could be the loser - and to blame - why there's fewer artists this year than the past.
Maybe they should also make supplemental nominations in the event an artist declines their invitation or could not attend unexpectedly...
