The difference from Jiyoon to Sarang is crazy

I didn’t care for Itnw it’s outdated sounding imo. Please don’t preach to me how it’s a classic. Idc I don’t like it’s a boring song imo.

Yah me neither

In general, even if you’re not ultimately featured as a leader, it’s impactful to experience the leader role. At best, maybe it awakens the hidden leader inside a person. At worst, it gives perspective and a new found appreciation for whomever is graced to be in the leader role.

I feel like what makes the INTW performance looked more "Grand" and impactful is that they make use of long intro (for about a minute) to tell the struggles and desperation of the trainees to debut, as it is basically the theme of survival shows and they chose the song that has been the standard for almost every girl group survival show. Unlike them, team La TaTa's performance felt more rushed and a bit laid back for a semifinal performance. It would be better if both groups had the same length of duration.

I disgree for the latata. Sujung's creative direction really is unique. I always see gidle as a group with exploring different concepts. As i did not lock latata into a specific theme/concept. The song itselt already screams uniqueness you can definitely pull any concept with it. The mystery purple flowers approach of sujung for me was well done given they all are already exhausted from the stress of the competition yet they still deliver good stages. Props to this stage also and the song. Yuju standout for me. Her outfits here are 10 times better than spicy

YUJU IS AN ALL ROUNDER, SHE NEEDS TO DEBUT YALL SLEEPING ON HER

My dream line up Jeemin Junggeon Koko Saebi Yuju Mai If there’s another possible added member like twice Sarang/ fuko

We have same reason why i also love kpop survival shows

i think its Gyuri instead of Mai

i think the picks the producers will chose are Koko, Saebi, Mai, Jiyoon, Sarang, Fuko and Gyuri.. I think they won’t choose Jeemin bc they know she’ll get voted in, and it’s a wild card for Sujung, Yuju, Juwon, Jungeun bc they don’t seem to like those four

my dream lineup (no order): Jiyoon, Jungeun, Gyuri, Koko, Jeemin, Fuko (if there is a 7th member, Sarang)

These are my predictions for the upcoming episode this week: As stated, there will be only 10 finalists-- 3 trainees are saved by I-MATE Voting and 7 trainees are chosen by producers. After this was stated in the episode, I already have a solid guess on who those trainees were. For the I-MATE Voting - these are my 3 guess: Jeemin, Jiyoon, and Koko With the I-MATE Voting, regardless of their ranks I believe, they will have immunity from elimination. Jeemin: She is loved internationally and in Korea and I know that she is going to get saved. Jiyoon: Starting off as the bad girl to climbing up the ranks, her fanbase has grown throughout the episodes and honestly good for her because even with the evil editing, they will never make me hate her. Koko: People might say it is either Sarang or Saebi in this situation, Koko has a strong chance of being saved. She was the top voted for I-MATE live voting during the Rap Unit and her fanbase is growing internationally as well. This leaves Mai, Fuko, Gyuri, Saebi, Jungeun, Sujung, Yuju, Juwon, and Sarang. Out of 9 of these trainees, 7 will be selected and I will rank on who will most likely be the safest to most likely eliminated with reasoning 1. Saebi: I don't think I have to say anything... The producer's love her, the K-Netz love her, internationally she is loved. She is 100% guaranteed safe. 2. Sarang: She is one of the producer's favorites. I don't know if she's talked about internationally/in Korea but I know that she's safe as now because even with a little voice crack during 4 WALLS, they brushed it off as if it was nothing... (I am saying this because if it were Jiyoon in this position, they would've said "this is completely unacceptable") I am sorry I love Sarang, but other people deserved a higher score than Sarang (I am looking at Jungeun). 3. Gyuri: To be honest, she doesn't really stand out to me as much. But she was the best in the 4 WALLS unit! And she gets really good feedback from the producers' as well. 4. Fuko: She is such a great leader, but lately she has been doing too many cute concepts imo. I want to see her do more girl crush/baddie concepts as well. But I feel like she would be safe. 5. Mai: Mai is honestly switchable with Jungeun. She is neither safe nor unsafe (mainly bc I don't know how big her fandom is in Korea and internationally) which makes it hard to put her on the ranking, but I am a Mai lover. She is one of the most improved trainees on the show as of right now from the start to now in my opinion. She was the one of the producers' favorite's during Part 1 but they haven't been talking about her as much (except for when they constructively criticized her for her dancing during last episode but that was to give her the motivation). And I feel like the producer's have a soft spot for Mai as well for some reason because she rarely receives harsh criticism or any criticism in general from the producers after the performances are done. And knowing that Mai got the same score as Sujung and Juwon in the Dance Unit (who by the way are much more of street dancers compared to Mai which gives them the advantage of getting a higher score but didn't) on the show, shows that they have a soft spot for Mai as well. 6. Jungeun: Again, she is neither safe nor unsafe as she has a big fandom internationally, but not in Korea as she is for some reason hated... but I swear to god if she is not a finalist, this show is a good contender for rigged survival shows behind R U NEXT? I was honestly surprised that she was not chosen for the all-rounder position when she is the all-rounder on the show. Yeah, she might not be able to rap, but in 4 WALLS they excluded the rap sequence which would've been perfect for Jungeun to be in, but no! She is I feel like one of the producer's favorite's though because I am guessing it is one of those relationships where you can't sugarcoat anything since she is the ranked first in evaluations. They have to keep everything real with her by saying "It's all part of the process.". 7. Yuju: Lately she has been not shining well, especially with being on a team with Koko. Compared to her, Koko looked like luxury while Yuju was just given baggy clothing and a skirt. And yes, some people may say that Yuju was better rap wise, Koko's stage presence and attitude on the stage was far too good compared to Yuju... I am sorry. And also because I think she lost a lot of fans after the Mai incident. 8. Sujung: I agree with you! After the last episode, Sujung's attitude kinda rubbed me the wrong way. Yeah, it might've been evil edited or something, but it doesn't ignore the fact that Sujung said that. It was stated that it is an individual competition, but knowing Mai who was talked about for her vocals, if Sujung needed help with anything, Mai would've helped her in a heartbeat. I don't know how sophisticated M-NET's editors are nowadays, but if they were able to create and makeup a fake scene about Sujung and Yuju talking about Mai's vocals, damn. They did her so dirty. 9. Juwon: It breaks my heart to put her here. She is honestly switchable with Yuju, but not seeing her have a lot of screentime through the show since Part 1, it is so much wasted potential from someone who actually deserves to debut. I am just being realistic and preparing myself for the worst.

my lineup is (in order): jeemin, koko, saebi, fuko, jiyoon, gyuri (if there is a 7th member = sarang)

So I've thought about this way too much and my prediction for the final lineup is Jeemin (for sure), Jiyoon, Saebi, Koko, Fuko, and one of 3 possible final members: Sarang (She's allaround popular with everyone, the judges and the audience, but it may or may not be enough to get her in. I think in general she's the most likely choice out of the 3) Jungeun (Her popularity has been majorly declining lately considering she was number 1 in everything at the beginning of the show, but it may garner some sympathy, and she has an international fanbase that could come to her rescue, or the mentors could wake up and realize they need her in the lineup) Gyuri (She's been consistently doing well with the onsite voting and the judges score, I think she has a high Korean fanbase which will come in handy)

u think they would debut al three japanese members?? i think 2 at most. also jungeun votes are low so idek anymore

I didn't add a rap category because the show doesn't seem to be too focused on rap ATM. I do think the group will end up doing an elegant girl crush concept though, like izone meets Blackpink
