Y'all I tried uploading this at midnight and it was taking FOREVER. Then I got up and the whole upload had failed/disappeared. 😭 Haha. I'm not doing this whole thing over, but thanks for watching with me!!

I'll let you know when I do the next episode (probably early next week, during the day).

I can’t do Twitch so I’m watching the VODs here on Patreon. I’m at the beginning of this episode, but I will say that Korean fans did not give Jaejoong heat for what he said about the one Boys Story member needing to lose weight, many agreed actually. That’s sadly just the reality of the idol world, Korean beauty standards have not changed much at all since 2015 and the idol standard will never change, I’m sorry to say. It’s frustrating and it really unfortunate, but I seriously highly doubt Korean beauty standards, ESPECIALLY idol standards will ever shift. But also, if you watch that part of the performance, I understand what the masters were saying. It’s where he was slightly lifted by the other members and they struggled a bit to get him up, and he landed hard and wobbled because of it. So they were just saying that if he was lighter that wouldn’t have happened. So like I get it in that regard, kind of….but also it just sucks.

I forgot now but there was something else I really wanted to comment in the first C group episode. Now I’ll be the first to admit I’m a fan of Jaejoong, I’m a heavy 2nd gen biased fan so that has a lot to do with it. But some of the hate he’s receiving from international fans is interesting. I get it but also he will be more harsh, because he comes from a very different time in the idol industry. People talk about the dancing skills of idols these days, and they are great, no doubt, but as a fan who’s been a fan since 1st gen…the overall talent level is just not the same. They HAD to dance AND sing at a high level ALWAYS from the gate back in the day. There wasn’t any lip syncing ( rarely) during music shows like there is now. Someone even made a comment that many idols start out with no vocal ability now and get better as they grow with their group, that was not a thing back then, if you couldn’t sing and dance live, and well together, you would not debut, period. The standards have definitely dropped, and that’s not to say that these kids these days aren’t talented, because they definitely are, but the industry is a lot less strict and harsh, which is a good thing for sure, but when you have judges like Jaejoong, he will for sure have high standards and be very detail oriented and he knows how ruthless the business is, he was blacklisted for suing SM for the slave contracts back in the day. You gotta be tough to do deal this idol lifestyle man. It’s not for the faint of heart…like at all.

I’m commenting as I’m watching so forgive my many comments omg 😆 But with the signal song, I’m confused about the people who were saying that C planet was given it in Korean first and then they suddenly switched it to the Chinese version…the first time they saw/heard the song was when Zhang Hao showed them the choreo during the first stat test…and he definitely performed the Chinese version…so…where was the Korean one that was given and then changed later? Maybe I’m missing something..? But I think because some people don’t like the way the feel C group was treated they are literally making shit up now to create more anger and to further drive the point that there is intentional discrimination against the C group members, but that’s just my humble opinion 😆 I’ve seen that happen so much with so many different fandoms.
