YAYYYY I'M SOO EARLY

A

AND YESSSSSS DONGGYU SURVIVED thank you as always jeff!!

Nova Amore

Ah, I'm so early unintentionally lol🤣 my doom scrolling caused this lmaoo Just wanna say that your reactions are always so fun to watch! The editing of everything takes a lot obviously, so it's appreciated! Honestly, I feel like I got even more into this season cause of you🤣 plus the c planet trainees of course🤭 *Oh, and do you think you will react to the full episode of the boys planet haunted house episode of that show? (Can't remember the name or spelling of it) It'll be released on September 9 I think! Only if you have the time and energy though! My three pick is xinlong, donggyu, and then my last spot is gonna change between anxin, jiahao, kaiwen, etc😭 I need the 7 remaining c trainees to make it to the finale at least...

Paula Proske

I love that Donggyu survived but I‘m so sad about Harry June 😢 He was my one-pick..

srngtae

i honestly feel so bad for liyu… like even if you don’t think he deserves higher ranks, the amount of hate he’s getting is just cruel. tiktok stans especially takes it way too far when there are literally bigger issues in the show (like the problematic trainees??). most people try to pass it off as ‘criticism’ when they’re actually just straight up bullying him 😓 what makes it even sadder is that liyu is fully aware of the hate, and he even thanked fans for protecting him. and seeing his artwork about the struggles of chinese women just makes me realise how genuine and kind he is. he really doesn’t deserve this treatment at all.

Moonsyulle

I dont know how I should feel about the TOP8, tbh I want Woojin, Jun Min, Donggyu within the lineup >_< just to choose 8members is really though 1. Sangwon 2. Leo 3. Woojin 4. Xin Long 5. Junseo 6. Jun Min 7. Donggyu 8. Kangmin 9. Sanghyeon/Haneum/Axin (Hope there is a 9th member) if we are being realistic maybe those will be the lineup 1. Sangwon 2. Axin 3. Leo 4. Xin Long 5. Junseo 6. Sanghyeon 7. Geonwoo 8. Kangmin/Li Yu/Masato My 3pick gonna be Woojin, Sangwon and Xin Long

Mika

Donggyu was 25th from normal votes but the live vote was enough to get 24th. I’m so glad I stayed up to vote 😭

Moonsyulle

Yeah I heard about it sadly that Fan Zhe Yi left Korea and returned to China

sanitizerr

samee, even though I got work at 8 😭 I just had a feeling he would be around that ranking

nisha

sorry, it wasn't supposed to be a reply lol >_< but yeah, i just really feel sad since some of them wouldn't probably join the show. i don't blame them tho

sanitizerr

out of topic but ZB1, RIIZE and NCT also played the Hide and Seek.. u can watch it in the Mnet app for free😉

nisha

just wanna share my top 8 rn! 1. Woojin 2. Sangwon 3. Leo 4. Haneum 5. Anxin 6. Xinlong 7. Sanghyeon 8. Liyu/Kangmin and my three picks are Woojin, Sangwon and Leo

Flaze

This is no hate towards Geonwoo, but rather to knetz. But it's kinda ironic that knetz "forgave" Geonwoo but not Woojin despite Geonwoo having a larger controversy...

Kal Haze

In the current line up , I am really okay with it, especially top 4, but I just want woojin, dongyu , jiahao and junmin to be added in the line up

nisha

uppp

Nova Amore

I just wanna say that having only 7 Chinese trainees in the semi final is so sad but also it unfortunately makes sense... As a Chinese person, I was really hoping that mnet would be fair, but that's too much to hope for. And xinlong and zihao were so funny during the rankings🤣 I didn't know that xinlong would dance in front of San like that! He's actually going viral to an extent cause of that amongst atinys! Same with zihao, since zihao made San laugh and cheer along. I was low key surprised that woojin didn't get picked for the killing part, but maybe the team considered the dance part as well, which some people didn't show vs others like seowon Also, I hate how this is Harry June's first edit as a leader and killing part, but he got eliminated in the end... - side note, Harry June did a live, and he was asked who his one pick was! He said donggyu! I really wish mnet showed us more friendships, like donggyu and Harry June, like that would've been so fun to see😔 I also kind of agreed with your opinion on Junseo's endorsement. I definitely understood where he was coming from, but when he said that I did felt bad to the other killing part centers. I feel like sangwon either way would be safe, if he's the killing part or not since he is so so popular😔 When li zihao said "I can't give up before my fans do" I legit teared up... Cause growing up, I always found it so cool to see other fellow Chinese boys literally my age performing and doing what the love to do! I've used members like xinlong and zihao as inspiration actually! Especially since zihao reminded me of myself, and the way he didn't seem to care about what people thought about his looks or talent inspired me, and how I approach my paintings and etc. (side note, it makes me so sad how boy story was never able to get up there like stray kids, nmixx, and itzy were able to. And all boy story members trained with all members from those groups. I know zihao sort of joked about it with the mnet thing (which was so funny lmaoo), but I think he didn't need to. I saw verivery's reaction, and all members seemed touched by his words. I think dongheon even mentioned something about boy story members being so mature or whatever. Which unfortunately comes from debuting so so young🥲) I feel like if mnet had just gone with the two separate planets, it would've been better. (Would it be more fair though, idk about that) I heard that suren, during his douyin live yesterday, talked about how he would purposely talk to other c planet trainees in Korean, to try to help them with screentime. But mnet never included those scenes obviously which is a shame...

Nova Amore

Oh, and it sucks that for a lot of the remaining popular Chinese trainees, there are people trying to hate on them and cause hate trains to them. Cause I know that trainees like xinlong and hanwen (I think) were getting hate after the eliminations. Cause for example, so many people keep saying that they don't want xinlong since he's not handsome/doesn't suit the current top 8/will ruin the group since he likes groups like stray kids and ateez... Like come on now, he is so handsome! People are forgetting that he was active for a long time, so he is very flexible and can do different concepts It's a shame that woojin keeps going lower and lower. Respectfully, it's sad that geonwoo regained his fans/love back, but woojin (who arguably has a slightly less controversy) keeps getting hate. Not sending hate, geonwoo is okay, he performs really well. But this is just one thing I have noticed that is different between him and woojin. Woojins vocals in the final group would be so good, so I really hope Korean fans will vote for him more🥹

Mika

I really want to see what the teams will look like for the songs. Li Zihao is the only one to survive in Main Dish and 11 trainees survived in chains. It must be hard to train for one song and have to swap to another midway through…

nisha

now, woojin is so close to being eliminated since afaik only 16 trainees will survive for the next elimination 😭💔 it's just really sad too since there are fewer c-trainees now and 3 of my picks are eliminated. right now i'm focusing on voting woojin, sangwon and leo btw someone already commented but if you would like to check out zb1, txt and riize's sumbakkokjil, it's free in the mnet app~

soleo

So sad that Harry got eliminated. He was my one pick… I also really like Donggyu and have been voting for him, but still, Harry leaving hurts. He even went live on the DKB channel yesterday and said Donggyu is his one pick, so now I’ll support Donggyu to the fullest too hehe. Honestly, so many great trainees were eliminated just because their screentime came way too late. Like Yoonmin for example I really think he could’ve climbed way up if it had been just a week earlier. Same with Donggyu, he definitely could’ve ranked higher if fans had more time to vote for him

nisha

x is just really toxic, i don't even know if they're voting or just hate on the trainees to get clout. they always say "vote for talent" but continue to harass those who climb up in the ranks— most esp xinlong. imagine hating on someone just because he likes skz and ateez? and also because he already debuted? 💀 the hate on him atp is just really forced tbh.

sanitizerr

FRR! My ideal lineup. If the top 4 and the trainees you mentioned are in the top 8- I would stan so hard like I did to ZB1 cuz they could definitely match the talent and popularity.

dylightfullygeeky

Btw the haunted hide and seek thing in the beginning (sumbakkokjil) is an actual MNET series and many idols have gone on it - including ZB1 and TXT.

barbie

nian bo heng my shaylaaaaa you deserved better 😫😫😫😫

Mika

I agree 100% with you on the top 8. All of them are great and I would stan if they debuted like this. I was worried about our rap line the first time but now it’s looking a lot better. Honestly I’m not the type of svs watcher that makes a top 8 that id prefer(I’d rather root for a couple I want to debut because I end up liking the line up anyway lol) but I’m really surprised so many people online don’t like the current lineup. I definitely think there’s other trainees that could fit in the group and I’d still stan My 3 pick atm is Anxin Kangmin and Jiahao I think Jiahao has a lot of potential to go up in rank with the Tamborine viral moment and potentially being the killing part in chains(if he stays in there😅)

BZ

I feel bad for Liyu too. I wish his one picks would help him instead of creating more hate towards him. They are all over X, spreading false rumors and even lies about other contestants, and I think they don’t realize how that hurts and doesn’t help Liyu. It makes me sad

RAN

Kai Wen, Woojin, and Junseo are who I'm voting for now.

Candice Blair

So sad about Xue Suren and Nian leaving, and now Li Zihao has to scout for a team since everyone has left his. (sigh). Yay about Xinlong, but he's still not safe either.

Pratiksha Majee

Harry finally got killing part position and was the leader, taught the choreo, was extra helpful with Jaehyun and he won't even perform it! Mnet finally gave him screentime which they should have given during Like Jennie but he is out!! He was my one pick I am just done with B2P. I can't watch anymore!!!😭 I'll probably vote for sangwon and few others I like..and now by the end sangwon is gonna be my only pick but no one can replace Harry as my one pick. Btw DKB uploaded a dance challenge reel of Harry june and 2 other DKB members performing Like Jennie choreo made by Harry

Irving

I would stan this top 8 honestly, I just wish there was another vocalist on it. right now I am voting for Geonwoo, Kangmin and voting alternative for Junseo / Leo. so sad yoonmin was eliminated but well...what can we do now. PS. the mcountdown performance did come out already and the online fanmeeting also happened for the lalalala team.

Jet3

I think Donggyu will definitely go up after this. I’m okay with the current Top 8, but i will vote for him and i really hope Donggyu will make it and debut. I think he will pull a Gunwook for this season. I became a fan after the last week episode. He’s an all rounder, and has great personality too. I think I dont mind if he replaces Junseo or Geonwoo from the current Top 8. I agree with you about Sanghyeon. I will not vote for him, but I dont really mind him debuting because he does has that star quality power. Hoping that he will show more improvement after this.

RAN

Actually, Junseo received a really bad edit last time, which led to a lot of hate and caused many Korean fans to drop him. We can clearly see this from how much his Korean votes fell compared to before. However, his global votes have increased a lot. The show originally started with him to give him the BL actor storyline, but they probably didn’t expect him to gain this much support and popularity. Now, it feels like they’re trying to sabotage him in every possible way.

Jiju

I voted Leo Junmin Dong Gyu I need this three in this group. /Ofcourse my friends and family also vote for them cause of me hehe/

hinata

I actually love this top 8 and I don't mind it, but I agree with you that there should be more vocalists. The remaining number of c trainees reminds me of the situation with the previous season of boys planet T_T For my picks, I have two phones so I have two different 3-pick for both gadgets lol, but here are my 3-picks: [1] anxin, xinlong, jiahao & [2] anxin (he's my one pick so i'm voting for him with both of my phones), chingyu, hengyu

Zerose777

I’m voting Geonwoo, Lee Jeong, and Haneum. I’ve been voting Haneum for 3 weeks now and I’m sad that his global votes are so low. We could have a powerhouse vocalist in the Top 8 if y’all intl people would just vote him. He’s P05 in Korea. P05!!! Yet dead last but an embarrassing gap in Global votes which is why his ranking is not going up. I beg you, PLEASE VOTE HANEUM 😭 Also I prefer Harry June over Dongyu so this was really sad. I’ve actually been voting Harry June since before episode 1 because I saw his dancing videos on TikTok. So yeah I’m devastated 😅 Also really disagree about Sanghyeon. I'm not voting him, but there's something about him that's so captivating and endearing like Gyuvin. I didn't vote for Gyuvin either because I didn't see the appeal at the time and his vocal skill was also lacking, but now his vocal skills are amazing for a Sub Vocal.

Zerose777

Let's not start about Geonwoo again. Also it's ironic that y'all Global people won't vote for Haneum. At least Woojin isn't dead last in Korean votes, he's 19th. Haneum is actually worse than dead last in Global votes, he was 26th in them. 26th!!!

Daniel Lin Tamulonis

I am rooting for Jia Hao. He's been great since the placement stage (idk what it's called). My other faves are in the top already

arianna_maria

My top 8:(in no particular order lol) 1. Donggyu 2. Junil 3. Xinlong 4. Sangwon 5. Leo 6. Woojin 7. Kangmin 8. Chingyu 9. Junmin I included 9 because I figure there will be 9 members at least

Lisa

Mnet only giving Harry screentime after they knew for sure he was eliminated is absolutely diabolical bro

Lisa

he's gonna debut regardless and then he's going to receive hate for being a filler member/only being a visual. He may be really sweet but lets face it. Most of the other contestants are also lovely...and currently lot more ready for debut than Liyu. He seems like one of those trainees that could really benefit from one or two more years in the trainee system. He's missing a lot of foundational techniques but you can definitely see the potential that is there. I would totally be down to vote and support for him in a few years. But right now. I don't understand ride or die Liyu voters.

Lazycloud

People are mad about Xin Long not fitting the concept? Masato, Liyu, and Sang Hyeon doesn't the fit the concept. What are fans on about? The concept with Sang Won in the center is very Enypen sexy, dark, mature coded. That is not Sang Hyeon, Masato, and Liyu who are very ZB1 cute, bright, and refreshing coded

cat

some ppl want a tws kinda group (i get it tho) but looking at the majority of the top8 since the start they aren't really pushing for that concept and it makes sense, like pushing for that kind of concept when the concept of bp1 was kinda bright is not smart, why would a company debut two groups back to back with that sound (not that zb1 has it currently) and also the difference of whos in the top 8 in korean votes vs international votes its so crazy too so thats why mostly knetz are not pushing for a trainee like xinlong (crazy in my opinion ngl) but come on look at whos in the top 5 plsssss they fit so well together. also does anyone has like an unbiased take on geonwoo's drama bc i really didn't tune in when the whole drama was going on and twt/tiktok has the most crazy takes in scandals so i really do not trust their information on it i would really appreciate it

nins

Donggyu is my one-pick, and no matter where he goes, I'll follow and support him. When the show first began airing I really did think MNET would highlight him every round, but like you said, the lack of screentime during the Hola Solar round and the first mission was so damaging, especially since that's when most people's top 8 was solidified. I do think he has a big chance of making it to the final round given his highlight during Bad and some of his screentime this episode, but I honestly don't think he'll debut in the top 8. At first, I was really sad thinking about that, but I think I've grown to accept it now. I can totally see him debuting in a different group after some time has passed, and him coming back more confident and sure of himself. He only turned 20 this year so he has a little bit of time, even though he seems so much mature than that. Hearing how low his self-esteem was during his conversation with Harry-June was sad and heartbreaking since he's already amazing and has so much potential. He's an exceptional trainee, with a great personality to match - kind, shy, and super respectful (his numerous deep bows to others, the way he speaks at an intentionally higher pitch when talking to those older than him, accepting whatever anyone says, and taking care of the youngest members in the behind videos). And he has a beautiful, deep baritone voice with great falsetto skills, something that's pretty unique for an idol. My last wish for his time on the show is to become the main vocalist in Lucky Macho, that way he'd be able to showcase all his talents during his time on the show (rap during the first round's "S-Class" stage, dance during the second round's "Bad" stage, and vocal during the third round, "Lucky Macho" stage). That way people could see what he truly has to offer. So many don't know how solid his vocals are, but in videos of him singing in high school/middle school, he's really, really developed, and arguably one of the top 4 vocalists left on the show now. I'd love for him to shock people. If he does get eliminated, he'd likely debut in an IST group with Arctic and Rensho, both amazing contestants on their own. Arctic is an great dancer, and Rensho is pretty good too and has a goofy personality. They'd make an amazing group. If he instead ends up in an Evnne side-group situation, then I hope him and Junmin (if Junmin doesn't make it) are in the same group. Either way, I know he'll choose what's best for him. I just hope he ends up as an idol somewhere or even an actor, and doesn't give up his dream.

sushiracey

My Current 3 Pick 1. Geon Woo 2. Chen Kai Wen 3. Alternating between Hsu Ching Yu and Jia Hao Sangwon, Leo, An Xin, and Xin Long are in my lineup but I've chosen to focus on the 4 above. The reason I chose those 4 for my 3-pick is because those already at the top already has a solid fanbase. Looking at my picks I highly doubt they'd debut this many C-Group (unless a miracle happens) but I'd take what I can get I guess.

OneDoorTeume

I would watch the group with this top 8 but I would prefer to have JiaHao and DongGyu instead of JunSeo and SangHyeon.

Lama

going on a rant session here instead cuz X is toxic as hell😭: I truly wish yoonmin had that main vocal moment earlier cuz he would’ve made it to the finale and pulled a taerae then. Like imagine Leo and him as our main vocalists and belters in the final lineup… haneum, hengyu and woojin are also very impressive but yoonmin’s vocal range and all-rounder(ness) puts him ahead for me. he can rap sing and dance at such a high level. I’d also stan this current lineup even tho some of them aren’t my picks, but I can’t help but want junmin either in place of one of them or as an additional member. Xinlong deserves that 4th place so badly I don’t care what anyone says he needs to debut. I feel so bad for harry june nian boheng arctic and hyunjun they all deserved to at least make it to the finale. Yichen i personally was really rooting for in the beginning cuz i loved his project 7 audition and despite the lack of screen time he got here i was still either voting or really rooting for him until that staged drama between him and yechan happened, the fact that its staged makes it even worse cuz respectfully its very stupid of the both of them to do this on a MNET SHOW where they milk the crap out of any thing that leads to drama, Yichen esp looked so bad and I can’t believe he basically did that to himself! Like couldn’t you think of any other way to get screen time other than making yourself look so annoying😭? knowing damn well that mnet will eat your act up and not provide any context or inform viewers in advance that the whole thing is staged. Currently my top 2 fixed picks are leowon and xinlong kangmin junmin sanghyeon and donggyu take turns for the third pick.

Juicy

Love your reactions so much Jeff! By chance do you have a certain team you're looking forward to the most for the next mission? Right now my dream lineup is Junmin, Sangwon, Leo, Anxin, Xinlong, Donggyu, Leejeong, and Geonwoo. (I know it's unlikely for me to have them all) but as long as Junmin is in the lineup I'll be a happy girl. I like Zerobaseone a bit but I always felt like their concepts were too boyish and I NEED A MANLY GROUP- 😂 and I feel like these 8 can pull it off and be a strong powerhouse together. I never felt so anxious for a survival show but this one has had me on edge every single day. JUNMIN FIGHTING!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

BZ

I totally agree with you in that the group that debuts will be a darker more mature group and not a bright, youthful group. My only worry is that WakeOne isn’t great with that type of concept. I am super bummed about Harry June but happy for Donggyu. “They look like garbage bags” was the funniest and most on point comment🤣 You were talking about hateful comments and canceling people and you also mentioned who you think is safe, and I have to say that Leo is probably getting the most hate from Korean fans. He is definitely not safe and is relying almost exclusively on international fans. He is my 1 pick because I think the hate is so undeserved from a rap he did 3 years ago. I agree with Lee Seokhoon that K-pop will lose out if Leo doesn’t debut. My 3 pick is Leo, Sangwon and Jiahao. I am okay with top 8 as it stands now but I would prefer Jiahao, Junmin and Donggyu in the top 8 with the current top 4

tici :]

omg we need a vocalist... VOTE FOR DONGGYU HE CAN SING SING!

Dolores Brown

My 1 pick is Jiahao. I’ll follow and root for the other trainees (especially Planet C), but Jiahao was the main reason I watched this show. So I guess I’d be more of a casual fan than stan, if the current top 8 was the final group. Btw Jiahao is also an Aussie. Apparently he lived there for his studies, before jumping into his trainee life for like the last 6 years. His English name is Arno.

Gem571

I'm hoping the final lineup is a mature powerful group - current top 8 Im fine with as Kangmin is my one pick. As long as hes there Im ok. Got to support Moonbins little dongsaeng - he adored Kangmin and I know he's up there rooting for him. I hope this next round he gets to show his dancing and stage presence more as he finally has two good arms for dancing. I would swap out a couple for Junmin and Donggyu who Ive voted for since the start but even better I'd love them to just add a couple in the finale. I really don't think this groups concept is meant to compete with ZB1 - I agree with you that they want a darker mature vibe with this group. They have based the show around that theme.

Flaze

@Zerose777 You clearly missed my point. I'm talking about Woojin still getting hate in Korea despite being innocent

Lisa

The escape game section was actually one of mnet variety show as well for idol called sumbakkojil🤣

justsing96

Leowon seriously need to debut together! I'm not sure if I could stan a group with just one of them. I'm keepin Leo as my one pick as well - just based on his talent and character already - but also with people deliberately being so anti against him. But isn't this a sign for the fandom already? Feels like it's gonna be pretty toxic...

Line

People thinking Sangwon was going to get evil edited after the preview for next episode lol as if mnet would ever do anything to hurt him. Sangwon's entire storyline has been one of struggle with confidence and the way he perceives himself. Whatever edit he's getting is one that'll make him seem relatable and vulnerable. That man is getting 12m votes alone. No one is TOUCHING him. There isn't a single trainee in that show who's a threat to him. He's a legend, and he's debuting as center. I agree with you about Junseo and his approach to the killing part. It's not very considerate towards the other trainees who also wanted to try and could do just as well. It reminded me of Leejeong and his obsession with having Liyu be killing part for plot twist. Also, I feel like Mnet is trying to pull Junseo down. He hasn't been edited in the most flattering way, and it's working to turn knetz's opinion against him. Saaame about ching yu T_T he was in my 8 pick, but I haven't been voting for him consistently :( I've been alternating him and Zihao, with Haneum at the second spot. I need Haneum to debut, it will be a disservice to this group if he's not in that line-up. I feel like the people who use the "doesn't fit the concept of the group" argument to justify why they don't want X or Y in the line-up are the people who started watching the show with the preconceived notion that this group would follow the same line as ZB1, and go down the fresh and bright route. Which we've already understood is NOT where they're leading it. So these ppl are mostly geared towards the cute boys, as opposed to the rappers and strong dancers. OMG I hadn't even considered the competition these guys will have. I am definitely SAT for SMTR25, and hopefully those boys are coming with an exciting concept. We need HANEEEEUMMMM!!!! We need Haneum in that group! If you add Haneum in there, it'll be incredible.

Christine Copeland aka Christine's Culinary Quest

The MNET stage was released the same day as the episode as a "special stage" I can't remember if there was a studio choom rewarded this round but I haven't seen it out yet if there was.

imani

where did this rumor about yichen and yechan faking their arguments come from?? i don't understand

Lora K.

I 100% promise you, K-netz are sabotaging Leo's score simply because he doesn't fit the femboy idol image a lot of them like while at the same time out-performing their faves on stage. Literally yesterday many fans who attended the live stage were writing on social media about how handsome Leo is in real life saying they would never say anything bad about him again. They would rather vote idols for their visuals who can't hit a note than those who have it all. I also want to clarify that it has nothing to do with the past because it was never an issue in Korea. He was literally a trainee at the time under BigHit and multiple producers and staff approved his lyrics before release. Do you think they'd allow a trainee to released anything offensive?

Joy

Chingyu has fallen so much 😭😭😭😭 guys please vote for him, yes he is young, but he’s so incredible talented!!!

imani

i wished that they let the contestants campaign for the song they wanted like last season in cases they wanted to do a concept change! I was PRAYING sangwon got into sugar high, junseo in main dish/lucky macho, or woojin in chains!! (even though none of them wanted these songs LMAOOOOO) Seeing the versatility of contestants is my favorite part😭

Lora K.

So happy for Leo, he really deserve to be top 3. I'm also so happy for Xin long! I hope people now wake up and start voting for actual talents instead of it being a K-beauty pageant with people who can't even hit a note. I can't wait for next episode!

jeffavenue

some people were commenting he said it on social media or something

jeffavenue

ohh ok no wonder i didn’t see it. it felt like they released whiplash earlier

jeffavenue

yess it was very obvious they were going for a powerful concept cause there were sooo many rappers/powerful songs highlighted on the audition round. also the fact the signal song had rap too. then the hashtag alpha and now slogan. so many signs! lol

jeffavenue

“finally has two good arms” 😅😅 he slayed with one too tho lol but yes two is great!

jeffavenue

oh cool another aussie! arno is quite unique

jeffavenue

yess i need both of them too! they are a package deal okkk. yes no one is safe! that’s why i always follow it up with “but keep voting!” i just really feel like leo debuting will give the group such a unique cool sound with the other vocalists and i love that for my ears

jeffavenue

i haven’t listened to the songs fully to avoid spoilers so not really sure which song to look forward to given there’ll be some shuffling with the trainees also. last season i ended up loving say my name the best so i can’t be sure this time haha

jeffavenue

if they highlighted the rap portion of the signal song, i’m sure donggyu would’ve garnered lots of votes cause iirc he was part of the 3 rappers right? they spent way too much time on people who couldn’t sing 😔

jeffavenue

yea the amount of powerful concepts and rappers on the audition round was enough to see what kind of concept they were gonna go for.

jeffavenue

THIS! even the other faves like an xin and junseo are more sexy concept than bright cute.

jeffavenue

right?? ughhh they needed to have spent more time on talent in the earlier eps

jeffavenue

haneum will probably raise in global votes next round! his moment was too late last ep too like donggyu’s and harry’s. i don’t mind sangyeon debuting. i agree about the star quality and he can keep up

jeffavenue

looks like mnet underestimated how popular the bl community is cause i kneewww he would pull in votes!

jeffavenue

hahaha i see mnet gave us a chance to save him

CRTJ

MNET or some other companies really need to create another group with coz we really have a lot of good talents eliminated. In Hu, just lacks a bit of confidence but his skills are of all rounder in my opinion. Harry June and Yoon Min too gosh!

sigh

the way I neverrr comment but I actually have to because Ive gotten too invested. First off my 3-pick is Donggyu, Jumin, and JiaHao and bro if they don't make it I actually won't care anymore lol. Like I've feel like Ive been having heart burn like they've literally been my picks since the beginning (along with xinlong and leewon) likee there's is soo much potential there!!! The comebacks, the variety shows, the mc-ing. They all already have such great chemistry and theyre so talented like I really don't want them to be separated...😭😭 ughh...And my top pick is donggyu-dont even get me started...He just gives off anime protagonist vibes to the max, like it's one thing for you to be really talented but In this industry your personality also speaks volumes. He straight up reminds me of Hanbin in the aspect of him just being so likable and kind. JiaHao being my second pick and mannn....I watched MakeMate1 and the way he was done so dirty actually is sickening like he was legit the best one. His dancing style reminds me so much of Taemin like he could be his apprentice legit...I didn't even know he signed up until I saw the 2nd episode and I was shook and just hoping he finally gets what he deserves. I know most people didn't even notice him much in the auditions which honestly makes 0 sense to me because personally Anxin was the other fever guy to me...Maybe it's because I watched MM1 and didn't watch the signal song but I even forgot Anxin was even in MM1 too. He's good and I wouldnt mind him with this line up but I just don't think he's there yet... 3. Jumin-I mean I don't think I have to explain much but his aura reminds me of San, I hope to see him on Studiochoom Artist of the Month (hopefully I'm not reaching). He was in 3rd with Xinlong for me but I think Xinlong is in a great spot along with Leewon. Xinlong also reminds me of Erwin from AOT lol like he has such a gallant, gentle-but-inspiring-leader personality. But anyways needless to say chileeee I AM STRESSED.

On the topic of Idols and Allegations; people are always so quick to jump on the hate train on the smallest possible rumors yet, when it comes to clearing up allegations, people are suddenly more wary about the information being spread. Like it takes a single twitter post with vague evidence (blurry images and text screenshots that are easily doctored) for allegations to spread and an idol to be canceled but when it comes to clearing up the same allegations, the same people suddenly want 10 pieces of evidence, a police investigation, and statement from the company. It’s INSANE. It’s scary and sad because a single rumor can ruin an idols career and all their hard work and so there’s always the potential for people to use that as a weapon to bring down idols who they see as a possible threat to their favs. And I feel like we often see that when it comes to competition shows. People cook up rumors and suddenly the trainees ranking drops. Anyways, people need to learn to not jump on any rumor train, especially if the rumor came from unreliable sources like twitter. Also, lighten up and give idols chances for redemption. No one is perfect and people make dumb mistakes in their youths. Like a fight on the playground shouldn’t be the thing that defines who someone is in their 20s.

So, I lost 6/8 top 8 picks this round including my P01 (Seowon) and P02 (Yichen). And my remaining 2 picks, Hengyu and Woojin, aren’t looking so good. I kinda had a feeling a lot of my favorites would be eliminated but it hurt seeing almost my entire group go. Idk if I would Stan the current top 8, maybe casually, but not nearly as much of an attachment as I have to ZB1. But I do think this top 8 is better than the previous.

People seem blind or just ignoring the truth. In the first performance BAD all three of them had balanced and equal time on stage. It’s not only Donggyu during the previous episode, when they were choosing the killing part, each member showed the choreography they created. Even in the mid-term check with the masters, you can clearly see that all three contributed to making this stage. In fact, the final performance still included the choreography from both Masato and Junseo, so why are people saying it’s only Donggyu’s work? That’s really unfair. For the killing part decision, Junseo simply gave a suggestion it wasn’t like he forced it. They discussed together, and the final outcome worked perfectly on stage. Sorry just too unfair

It’s really sad to see how Mnet edited the scenes in Episode 7 For example, with Kangmin from VERIVERY, they highlighted his story in a touching way, showing him with Baekho, which makes sense since VERIVERY is at least a little more recognized in Korea. But for Junseo (WEi), when he appeared, they only mentioned his BL drama role, not even a single word about his group name. That’s so disrespectful, because the reason he’s here is to follow his dream as an idol, singer, and dancer. Junseo has been working for years he debuted with WEi after Under Nineteen, and in all these years he has never had scandals or shown bad behavior. Yet Mnet edited it as if his presence only served to push another trainee’s storyline, like boosting Donggyu’s ranking. (Like every scene people saying Donggyu name screen keep coming like Donggyu angel) Don’t get me wrong, I like Donggyu too and I’ve even voted for him, but this kind of editing feels manipulative. And what makes it even more confusing is the inconsistency. In the very first episode, debuted idols were supposed to enter separately, but Leo entered sitting together with Sangwon even though he had already debuted before this show. It just feels like a concept the show wanted to push, and it shows the unfairness. It’s frustrating because every single participant in this show has their own talent and hardworking story. Still, some are given more attention while others are disrespected. For example, people keep saying Sangwon and Leo “deserve better,” but they’re already almost locked for debut because of their popularity, company, and exposure. Leo even debuted just months before joining this show, but the editing made him look more favorable. Meanwhile, Junseo and Woojin are criticized for very small reasons, even though they also deserve fair recognition. This shows that the staff and editors know exactly what they’re doing pushing certain narratives and not caring about how it affects others. And honestly, it’s sad, because all of these trainees are talented and working hard for their dreams.

Mnet is treating Junseo like bait thrown to predators, it’s really unfair. I keep rewatching and it’s just too sad, I really feel bad for Junseo. Meanwhile, Donggyu looks just like an angel.

After this elimination round my top 8 changed I lost some of my picks, but still think my top 8 is pretty solid. For now I have: 1. Center & Sub Vocal> Lee Sang Won 2. Leader & Sub rapper > He Xin Long 3. Main Vocal > Yang Han Eum 4. Lead Vocal > Lee Leo 5. Main Rapper & All Rounder > Chung Sang Hyeon 6. Sub Rapper > Li Zi Hao 7. Main Dancer > Kim Jun Min 8. Lead Dancer > Zhang Jia Hao or Hsu Ching Yu Top 3 Picks out of them --> He Xin Long, Kim Jun Min & Li Zi Hao What I am mad about (and this no hate towards him just an opinion) is that talented trainees like; Harry June, Hyun Jun, Nian Bo Heng, Actic, Tae Jo, Ye Chan, Xue Su Ren etc have been eliminated and that Hu Han Wen is in the top 24 as the 23rd contestant. Why am I mad? Because, other than him basically being a meme and almost having no screentime (other than being used as a meme reference) he has not shown anything mindblowing in this whole show. And I think people are only voting for him for being the "clapping guy" instead of being a talented contestant. And like I said this is no hate towards him, I'm sure he has his forte somewhere, but this has not been shown in the show AT ALL and the show is almost ending. This honestly is unfair to the ones I mentioned that have been eliminated. I do hope that he shows WHY he earns the spot in the ranking in the next episode and that he will show me in the performance that he deserved that spot, but honestly I don't see him doing too well in the coming episode and I see him merging in the background as basically a filler member which is sad because he probably wants this but he needs to step up his game. I just hope that for the debut line up the ALPHA and MATURE concept are being followed instead of the cutesy stuff because I think it's time for a change for once. I really feel for all contestants and hope that recruiters or A&R directors can see the talent of the eliminated trainees and do something with them because honestly considering an alpha concept: Nian Bo Heng, Harry June, Yoon Min, Ye Chan, Tae Jo, Hyun Jun, Arctic & In Hu would be a KILLER debut group in terms of strong rappers, versatility and visuals. So I hope they will have the chance to debut soon T_T and that harry has more oportunities in the industry. If I would have had the money I would debut them myself, but a girl can only dream right....

JEFF!!!!!!!! I can't wait for your next reaction! I feel like Yumeki finally had a breakout moment. It was SO GOOD and unexpected! Like I dropped Zi Hao and replaced him with Yumeki cause he just shocked me so much!!!! AAAHHHHH! I'M SCREEAMING! Got shocked by quite a few people in this round with the performances for the next episode. Some of the vocalists that had to do rap in particular blew my mind. I think you'll see some of the people you're concerned about proved themselves, though some of them did it in new positions. SO PUMPED FOR THE NEXT REACTION!!!!!!!! Heading back to youtube to re-watch! Ching Yu surprised me too! So glad I saw that side of him.
