It's really enjoyable, especially if you like bromance. Basically one dude has a car accident and then goes back…
Oho! Thatās interesting! So heās in a bromance with himself and the real owner of the body heās in is forced to be in a bromance with him too?? Thatās sounds so funny š
Guess what is the biggest joke of 2024?? of course it's Starlight boys final ranking... Are they conducting circus…
Iām sad that XingXing didnāt get to be a part of the debut lineup, because heās super talented but from what I know his main fan base stopped voting for him, after consultation with his management. He probably didnāt want to debut from the show due to all the issues, but he couldnāt withdraw either (the contestants who withdrew most likely had to pay fees etc and not everyone is able to do that, also depends on what kind of contracts they signed with the showās producers/production company). But Iām not sure if all this information is legitimate.
All the mentors's faces, they're like, what did I just participate in. And Eric rubbing his head because the results…
He really was one of the few (along some other contestants and the fun sports moments) highlights of this show. Itās a sad situation but at the same a funny one, to see the same surprises and disappointment on the mentorās faces that the fans feel.
I guess the hope we have left for a good final ranking lies in Universe League, although I still donāt fully understand how that show works (the teams and the bench, and the exchanges modeled after how sports teams work).
Just to give some perspective, if Guanwoo Yinghao and Jijun didnāt withdrawā¦ letās say at least two of the would have made it into the debut lineup, which means Donghwa, current 9th place and potentially Zai would have been out. Interesting
Uuuhh.. I donāt know, I feel like Xin Che shouldnāt be in the debut lineupā¦ I have no idea how he is going to keep up on stage with people like for example Junhyuk who is very expressive (dance-wise). It seems to be popular in recent survival shows, visuals over talent. Theyāll have to train a lot before debuting officiallyā¦
At least, from what I know, the group name is better than the one from Project 7šš and they have both vocalists and dancers + one good rapper in their lineup which is pretty promising.
I know nothing about this dude Xu Shihuan (Iāve seen the show, but honestly I literally never paid attention to him), but as there are other people that Iād rather see in the final lineup, I canāt say Iām pleased with his ranking.
Anyway, even now, I think the paid voting system and all these benefits (like in some game) were a big mistake from the start, itās not fair when you can more buy votes if you want and you can pay a lot. But I wish there wonāt be any voting controversy, only because I really donāt want Hangyul to go through that again.
Voting for visual over talent isquite common... but the paidvotes and benefits aren't. I believeit's a Chinese…
Of course fans shouldnāt have ALL the āpowerā, most of us donāt have much professional knowledge of dancing, singing and being an idol, which is definitely needed to train and evaluate contestants. Some fans have more unique preferences, than others and some might vote for visual, over talent, like in the case of this show.
I'm really disliking these voting methods anyone else? Like if you're rich you can boost your favs to the top?…
Voting for visual over talent is quite common... but the paid votes and benefits aren't. I believe it's a Chinese survival show thing, I've never encountered this many paid votes/ranking boosting gifts in Korean shows voting systems. Idol survival shows like that, were banned in China, among others because of voting controversies and related food waste. Fans should be able to vote, because judges may be biased too, and after all fans are who the group will be performing for, but that voting must be done in a better controlled way, without weird sponsorships. They should have stopped at making people who have premium vip or vip accounts on i q i y i app have a bit more votes to give at once, than people who have regular accounts, instead of having all these weird benefits that you can literally buy votes with. Otherwise, itās not a fair votingā¦
Uhā¦ I am glad for Minwook..? Am I? Iām happy he made it, heās not really an all rounder, I hope itāll turn out to be beneficial for him. And Iām happy for Ma JingXiang, Iāve known him since Boys Planet, I know he isnāt excellent but I like him nonetheless. Besides itās nice to see a Chinese contestant debut as po01 yet again, although itās not as legendary (it has been brought to my attention that Scool and Make Mate 1 has a Chinese po1 which is nice. Some of these shows, like Starling Boys or Scool are a direct collaboration with China/Taiwan and there are more contestants from that regions too so itās creating more possibilities).
But the ranking isā¦ from what Iāve seen on the show, Kyougbae and Yeojun are good, but what is that 7th place?? Kim Sihun should have been 7th! What was the difference in their votes?
What Iām thinking isā¦ how is this group gonna function? No vocalists? In 5th gen high notes are important, vocals have always been important whether we want it or not. I guess theyāll have to prepare a lot before debuting, but they canāt debut too late because theyād lose āmomentumā.
Lastly, the group name is hmmmā¦ letās say, interesting. Yeah, I have no idea where they come up with these names. I felt bad for Zb1 when their name was announced but now, I actually think it sounds not that bad, itās more compact, better as a name for a kpop group.
Anyway, I think Iām going to casually tune in when they debut. Support their activities more at the beginning. I feel like after all, Iām actually going to end up more focused on the fantasy boys and bae173 members left after these survival shows.
