How not to get over with OZ! Surely, you know the answer.

First, PP survey says much about the overall airport lounges at ICN accounting to the fact that all airport lounges at ICN with the exception of KE lounge at the main terminal and CX lounge at Concourse A participate PP. PP survey might be meaningless for some airports but ICN.

Second, you do not know the selection process as you said, so how could you assume that people were allowed to pick only one? They could have picked multiple, or they were supposed to rate any lounge that they have visited on 10-point scale. There are numerous methods to take survey, but your example considered just one method. Hence what you argued in the fourth paragraph does not stand valid at all. BTW, KE lounge at the main terminal is not available for PP members.

Third, there is no way more people could have tried the KE lounge at Concourse A than the OZ lounges at the main terminal and Concourse A. Given the nature that all PP members have access to OZ lounge at the main terminal while KE lounge and OZ lounge at Concourse A can be accessed by only those who depart from Concourse A, far more PP members should have used either of the OZ lounges than the KE lounge.

This survey should have been published using statistics with reasonable sampling size while considering sampling error. In any case, this is more dependable than what A Lee says. Finally, we can refer a source now if some FTers happen to ask which lounge is the best at ICN.
