Peak Time Finale (3/3) (Patreon)

MADE IT!

All in all, even though there were some things about the past two episodes that really, really bothered me, the show was still a delight and easily the best competition show I've seen so far. The energy was very wholesome and very supportive the entire way through, and even the whole Karam thing was a result of societal pressure and expectations and not so much the show's fault itself (though it would be awesome to see a show like this take a stand and actually defend the idols more but that's a conversation for another day-).

So excited for VANNER, I expected them to win tbh, even if my personal picks were DKB and MASC (sidenote I LOVE how popular MASC were, hopefully this will lead to us getting more duos in K-Pop again and hopefully they'll be active the industry more). But honestly and truly, out of all the groups there, I feel very comfortable saying that VANNER deserved that win the most. Not just because of their situation, but also because of their attitude and skill. Truly a great show concept, and I hope that they do it for girl groups too someday, even if I'd argue that boy groups are going severely more underappreciated in terms of talent nowadays.
