God Heeseung is stealing my HEART. He is sooooo precious and tender I would've never known this side without watching this. You can tell he's the baby in his family, he really doesn't want to cause any issues but I love that he speaks up when its time.

Sunghoon too really stole my heart here. He really seems like a different person here, so bright and cheerful, maybe he's also just grown up but I'd love to see more of this side to him. I want his hair to be lighter too lol.

Flicker was such a GOOD performance and man why were these songs so good?!!?

I'm so shocked at how unpopular Ni-ki was. I'm curious to see what made him get in to the group eventually. Also Hanbin's vocals WOAH?!?!

Enjoy!

omg yeyy iland reaction AND two episodes !! 😭❤️ I've been enjoying your journey with this show so much!! i'm glad you seem to be having a good time as well! I watched iland back in 2021 and till this day jake in that flicker performance is lowkey my roman empire lol. He just showd SO much growth there, and in my oponion out of all the enhypen members he is the one that showed the most improvement during iland (just my opinion tho, every member had their own growth).

From the second episode, people felt that Ni-ki betrayed Ta-ki, even though he had told Ta-ki what he was going to vote for him. Meanwhile, EJ did the same thing to Daniel and never received this much vitriol. It also stems back to the first mission, as well as if people weren't pushing him to be the center. People thought he was selfish up to this point, even though he was the de facto leader of Ground. I would say Ta-ki got to use his age to his advantage compared to Ni-ki, who is a few months younger than Ta-ki. The I-landers or viewers never gave Ni-ki the same grace because of his talent.

Chamber 5 is my all time favorite! They did a dance practice after debut for chamber 5! Also, in a 2025 concert they performed it! They tease engenes all the time if they win a daesang they will release the song!

Koko3op

Jake OWNED that performance !!

Kay

For me, this was the episode where I realized that K wouldn’t be in enha, not because he lacked talent or didn’t deserve it, but because his dynamic with the group, both on and off stage, didn’t quite align. The clash between Heeseung and K, along with their different approaches to leadership and performance, made that even more apparent. Seeing how Jungwon, Sunghoon, and Jake had a hard time expressing their opinions around him added to that impression. I’m not sure if it was age-related, beacuse heesueng is also hyung but he is not strict but i dont know ?... but throughout the show, K’s relationship with the Japanese trainees felt different. The way they interacted with him, the conversations they had, they viewed him more as a leader In that sense, I think he’s a better fit for andteam.

They performed Chamber Five in fruit costumes. It is hilarious and Jake’s hat falls off, it is so cute

BZ

They changed the tempo in the Enhypen version

BZ

I don’t think it is puberty that K was going through regarding the difference in his jawline because he was 24 at the time of ILand. Also, they don’t disclose this now but Ni-ki, K and Taki all knew each other before ILand, and had practiced together in Japan before going to S Korea. I’m not sure why BeLift wanted to keep some of these things secret

hermy

So with K, I understand why the other four felt like they couldn’t share their opinion. My only thing is like they waited way too long to tell K about how they felt. Half the time was basically gone before their performance and obviously the fact that they never mentioned it to K, definitely took him by surprise when they all told him at once. So I understand the team’s frustration, but I would also say K’s reaction is justifiable

nana

ppl were surprised K didn’t debut here but to me it honestly makes sense. he has such strong presence and despite getting along with everyone when it came down to it he didn’t mesh well enough with the other trainees, esp heeseung since they play very similar roles, and it would’ve caused problems on and off stage after debut he’s a lot more harmonious with &team and i hate how much ppl were hating in ni-ki or doing the same things other contestants were doing. lot of it was they found taki cute and didn’t really take him all that serious so tbh there was pity there. meanwhile ni-ki was such a strong candidate from ep 1 they wouldn’t give him the same grace despite being younger (pretty sure he’s actually closer in age to daniel than he is to taki)

Koko3op

Yeahh it's definitely not puberty then

Koko3op

Yeahh but that's reality though tbh, like they said they didn't want to upset him and maybe had hoped he'd start to listen but they realised he didn't they were left with no choice

kendricklmao

Jay his hand and your laugh is killing mee, why was that so funny

I think a lot of people who watch this show after already knowing Enhypen are surprised that Niki didn't just sail through because he has become so iconic in the group and Enha without Niki is just unthinkable. Watching it at the time though, I can only say that I was not totally sold on him. He was the best dancer clearly, but if there is a theme to this show it is about them gradually learning that there is a lot more to being a great idol than being a great dancer. Vocals, stage presence, charisma, personality are all as or more important. It was only as they started to learn this that Sunoo began to gain the respect he deserved. Also Niki only started to show that he might be more than just a dancing prodigy quite late on. I found it quite easy at the time to narrow it down to a top 8, and Niki was in that 8 (Enha members + K), but I was really struggling to decide who I would leave out from that 8. If I was put on the spot though it would have had to be Niki or Jake (sorry if this is sacrilege!) The idea of K not making it never entered my head until the end. He and Heeseung would always be the first 2 on my list. In hindsight of course it probably all turned out for the best and it seems obvious. In hindsight also the order of my picks would be very different. At the time though it was not at all obvious, at least to me.

Candice Blair

Yup. Heeseung, K, and I say even Ni-ki could not be in the same group. I feel like Ni-ki would have been stifled if that makes sense.

Candice Blair

Hmm.. I think even before this, he was hard to approach, and this is when they finally had to say something because the group is not as big as it used to be. Also, he put Heeseung on the spot about the vocals when the trainer was there. That wasn't fair.

K

I think people forget that K was 23/24 when I-Land aired, that’s already very late for an idol to debut, so I think in his head he thought this was his last chance and therefore was trying to make every performance perfect, also every other contestant is at least 5 years younger. When I watched I-Land I really didn’t like K but watching it back and being 24 myself now I can understand him a lot more. Love your I-land reactions, can’t wait for the next episode it’s my favourite 🤧😭

hermy

yeah that makes sense, he definitely was being stubborn and dismissive of how the others felt

Koko3op

jhbmvgcfxdreswafsgrdft had him looking like the muppets

Koko3op

Ohh that's interesting! Yeahh i really thought Niki would sail but I guess he also looked like growing would've benefited him to learn more about being a well rounded idol!

Koko3op

Yess! When you put it like that it makes perfect sense!

Ashley

Jay was my favorite, and we voted hard for him

cyd

heeseung, my little softie 🥹

Koko3op

So funny!! and a great leader actually

Sana

Not you Dying bc of Jay’s swollen hand 🤣

YESSS WE HAVE ARRIVED AT QUEEN CHAMBER 5 It's my all-time favorite I-Land performance and it's what made me start watching the show. I saw the performance the week before the finale and was like "no way I'm missing this " and then just binge-watched it that week. Such a good song and performance that holds a special place in my engene heart. Fun Fact-it's the only song performed on I-Land where all the members ended up debuting so sunoo, we love you for composing such a great team. Flicker is another one of my favorites that has an official enhypen version, on their debut mini but it's slightly different from the I-Land version. Jake stood out so much during the performance, and I'm happy he finally got his flowers from the producers. We're near the end, and I'm happy that you've enjoyed it so far. The final episode is gonna be a crazy one for sure.

Susan Harper

Yes, please watch & audition!

Koko3op

OIHDOFSDH they were so wrong for that

Passion Aguirre

Glad you noticed Hanbin cause he never got any screen time

Koko3op

What a vocalist! Hard to miss lol

nana

i agree! heeseung and ni-ki are powerhouses in ways that they’re strong pillars in what they do and they flow rlly well together in wanna but since K has similar presence to heeseung and the ability to be an insane dancer like ni-ki their positions woulda been muddled

Daley Grace Sweeting

What's mad is Taki & Daniel were closer to 15 and 13 in international age when they filmed this. Crazy to think they were put through so much so young! Seeing Seventeen hype them up never gets old!!!! This is a fave ep of mine :) (also I hope you do &Audition because I haven't seen it all the way through so it would be cool to watch it together)

Koko3op

Jesusss so young!! yess i may do it tbh, if the format is good like iland

Nina Sera

I love iland bc I’ve only ever watched knowing who all the members are, but I woulda been hella stressed about Jay leaving if I was watching in real time😩 I really do want you to watch &audition to see pre debut teamies but I have to warn you that it’s the complete opposite of iland lol. There’s no drama and they don’t even eliminate anyone until the finale, although it is the best survival show finale bc they announced then whole lineup in like ten mins instead of dragging it out for two hours like mnet. I think the episodes are a little shorter too

Koko3op

Ahhhhh i do love the iland formula lol ok i'll see!

💘

the way i started watching iland through you but seventeen and enhypen are really close 🥹 literally every single last member lol ! jay also recently mentioned that minghao took him and ni-ki out for a meal during the holidays !

Koko3op

Oh wow! Aww that's so sweet

Based on what I know now about K and Heeseung's personalities this is my perspective on the Flicker team situation. In terms of similarities both K and Heesung are very competitive and perfectionist when it comes to things they are passionate about. They are also very hard on themself. Obviously both of them wanted to win with their team but they had different views on how to achieve it. Heeseung have said that he struggle with flexibility. As we saw in the episode he had already planned who should have which part. Considering Heesungs reaction he must have felt very stressed when K had other opinions. K on the other hand is very flexible and spontanious. Fuma have said that K sometimes add new moves to their choreographies right before a concert when he is inspired by something wich can be stressful for those who doesn't like sudden changes. In my opinion another problem in the Flicker team was that the other members let K believe that everything was fine and that they were happy with their parts and the dance practice. If they were honest from the beginning the teamwork could have been better. As we could see K didn't react in the way they thought he would and he changed as soon as they had talked about the problems. Beside that K was the only extroverted, non shy person in the team wich probably added to the misunderstandings. From my perspective, it seems like they had preconceived ideas about K considering that I've heard him say several times in interviews that he is scared of being misunderstood.

Isabel

been waiting for a chamber 5 release from the first listen !! there were so many good songs in this show !! Dive into you, flicker, chamber5 , &incredible, into the iland ... LIKE HELLO

Pari

The editing in ep 9 really came after K poor Baby 😭😂 and people still hated him after ep 10 like be forreal

Tenzing Diki

Sure put K in the show for publicity , even though you already had a favorite but the evil editing was not it. Thank God he debuted in a Japanese group and now is the IT boy in Japan. But if he didn’t stay and decided to leave the company they had his brand destroyed.
