Antal et al. [Phys. Rev. E \textbf{72}, 036121 (2005)] have studied the balance dynamics on the social networks. In this paper, based on the model proposed by Antal et al., we improve it and generalize the binary social networks to the ternary social networks. When the social networks get dynamically balanced, we obtain the distributions of each relation and the time needed for dynamic balance. Besides, we study the self-organized criticality on the ternary social networks based on our model. For the ternary social networks evolving to the sensitive state, any small disturbance may result in an avalanche. The occurrence of the avalanche satisfies the power-law form both spatially and temporally. Numerical results verify our theoretical expectations.
