Its always interesting to watch the part in this episode with Jeongyeon's sister. She's an actress but was relatively unknown during this time. I actually knew her from dramas before I watched Sixteen (in like 2019) so it was a nice surprise to see her pop up :D There's a cute video from last year of Jeongyeon watching Seungyeon getting an award and cheering for her. I really love their relationship <3 (Sidenote but Seungyeon was also an SM trainee for many years before giving it up for acting. Hence the subs saying she "knew what Jeongyeon was going through")

2023-02-17 19:35:34 +0000 UTC"Mr Jackpots" always makes the most ignorant comments. I've noticed him excuse shitty behavior towards female idols so many times. Glad you guys are calling out the bad things in this show. The way the girls were treated throughout is awful. I like seeing pre-debut Twice but sitting through Sixteen is stressful. JYP is not a saint, and people ignore his (and the company's) flaws way too often

2023-02-17 16:00:50 +0000 UTCHad the same reaction when seeing Jeongyeon. Born model. I'd love to see you guys do a stream after you've finished Sixteen covering the subsequent careers of the girls who don't make the group. Somi, Natty, Chaeyeon and Jiwon have a ton of fun stuff solo and in groups.

2023-02-14 05:52:56 +0000 UTCNobody likes the photographer, but she was doing what JYP wanted her to do which was give them a taste of what Kpop idols have to do in photo shoots. The Kpop industry has no mercy. I felt bad for Jihyo, but she got that comment because she'd gained weight before the show started because she was depressed about her previous group not debuting. Being a Kpop idol is not for the faint hearted. Jihyo was viciously attacked later by Korean netizens for comments she made about male fans. She tore ligaments in both knees, but still performed in the Signal MV while awaiting surgery. Sana was also attacked for innocent comments she made about the Japanese Emperor. Idols regularly kill themselves because of online abuse. Think of this show as boot camp and DI JYP wants the squad to be able to survive in combat, so he's pretty harsh with them sometimes. That's what a survival show really is, and fake compliments will get you killed.

2023-02-13 23:08:31 +0000 UTCI feel like everyone that has watched this show dislikes the photographer. She was doing too much. She was not making them feel confident at all. Telling people they look fat and they are ruining the photo is crazy😒

2023-02-13 08:32:14 +0000 UTCI love Somi so much, she's also great in IDOT (Idol Drama Operation Team) - another fun show if you're looking for other things to check out. Only 4 episodes and the main cast has a LOT of familiar faces (members of Red Velvet, Mamamoo, Oh My Girl, Lovelyz, and I.O.I.)

2023-02-13 02:34:19 +0000 UTCSomi was on produce 101 (i.o.i). After i.o.i disbanded she prepared to debut with itzy but she left jype right before itzy debuted, so yuna debuted instead. Somi then joined the black label to debut as a solo artist.

2023-02-11 13:16:05 +0000 UTCNatty was twelve during the show and she was thirteen Korean age. She was a BABY baby for real 😭 she was on idol school(the show that created Fromis_9)but due tto rigging, she didn’t make it into the group and debuted solo in 2019 and had one comeback. She hadn’t had a cb in three years atp. It’s rumored that she’d be debuting in a new gg but according to other fans, the company is terrible, but I’m hoping the group does well bc I really want Natty to be successful

2023-02-11 04:35:25 +0000 UTCOh yes everyone haaaaaated how this photographer carried herself in this show. It's tragic but it's quite the reflection on the absurd standards that Korea has/had considering how good Jihyo looked back then and still got so much flack

2023-02-11 03:08:37 +0000 UTCI very much have a love/hate relationship with this show. I was talking to a close friend about this show, and the way I described this show was this show will make you want to punch a baby in the face on one hand, and on the other, you will thank this show because TWICE was formed on this show. This show will make you respect and possibly love the members of TWICE, ITZY, Somi, and Natty after watching it. I'm glad yall are watching it because I think all Baby Once should understand what the ladies went through to even get to debut, and all the ladies involved in this show truly deserve all the success in the world.
