I-Land | Ep 6 Reaction

Comments

Hi Jeff. Am enjoying immensely rewatching Iland especially with your insightful comments & infos from a performer & dancer's perspective. If you have not found out by now to your question whether there is a dance practice for I&credible, there is one on YT by MNET. It would be much appreciated by Hybe Japan bg & Enhypen fans like me & possibly newly interested people if you can react to it. It may be a great timing if you can possibly post your reaction when the Hybe Japan with new members make their official usual 2-3 months pre debut appearance & activities, teasers towards debut which I heard maybe starting next month in October or when they make their 1st performance or debut which Korea business securities news reported to be late this year or early Jan next year or when you have finished with Iland finale. Thank you & hoping.

I don't want you to complain about your height, ok? 😂 I'm only 5ft3. I literally need a stepstool to reach the higher shelves on the cupboard 😂

i'm so glad K get's to debut in the japanese group with taki cause he's 100% talented and deserves to debut. honestly tho... i think it was the right choice to not let him debut in ENHYPEN. heeseung and K would overlap personality wise and throw off the group.

Liesje

ENHYPEN are definitely a great group now and are excellent performers but watching I-LAND, I just can't help but feel so bad for K for not making it. In my opinion, he had the BIGGEST potential and was honestly right behind Heeseung as one of the most talented trainees on the show. Solid vocal, incredible dancer, amazing stage presence, excellent center when he needs to be. Like just imagine what kind of energy he could've brought to the table for ENHYPEN. I'm sad that only 7 of them ended up debuting because 12 is honestly just fine - just look at huge groups like IZ*ONE, SVT, NCT - but whatever, I'm glad K is at least getting another chance at debut with the Japanese group.

Ageism definitely a factor

I will never get over K not making it~I was convinced until the end that he was in! Still salty.

Jenn BL

All the talk on episodes is mostly on Jungwon, Heeseung, and K but for me Sunghoon was a stand out this is where he went from not in my radar to my radar. To answer why K is not in the line up he is another victim of evil editing 😈. In my own opinion its a toss between K and Ni-ki in the group I just think they fill in that purist main dancer position so well that two of them can’t be in the same group Ni-ki just edged it for me overall. K’s age is another reason apparently he is too old for the group so there is a lot of theories out there.

Yes it was, but it just didn’t go well:(

Dan

I love your reactions - so much so that I joined Patreon because of you! Your POV is so spot on! I'll look forward to the next episode.

So I’ve watched the rest of the series (still watching with you) and even though K is amazing…..I see now that he doesn’t fit the final group. Seeing his personality and the ones of the final groups members give off a different aura. But as I’ve read, he will be in the Japanese unit. Also don’t forget EJ is debuting too so he definitely had time to train more cause he wasn’t bad. (Plus they were both in Drunk-Dazed) I had to comment on the commentary about the judges and their constant comments about facial expressions and all that. I feel like the people on this show can sing and dance…we knew that and they knew that. I feel like they wanted to see you be able to convey emotions for different genres and be ready to be thrown in the spotlight (which they definitely were). You can be the greatest dancers but if you don’t make the audience feel what you want them to feel, the end result isn’t a positive one. I like the commentary in the second half anyway. Plus people really breakout of their performance shell. From now on I think you’ll really enjoy.

Honestly I see a lot of people commenting on why K didn’t make it in and yes a lot of the reasons I’m seeing are viable (obviously we’re all just speculating right) but( I don’t wanna give any spoilers Jeff) because it was a global vote mostly I think the producers looked at K’s standings in previous weeks verses the person he was up against (in terms of audience voting) and picked the person he was up against because they had been doing so well up until that point,getting so many votes. Also what you mentioned in this episode about having a group with variety in terms of image and charm…the person that K was up against brings a completely different charm than everyone else in the group…K is also different obviously ( he’s his own person) but there are people in the group who could be given parts that suit K…the person he was up against sort of stands out as being different in terms of their kind of “charm” in the final lineup….so as much as I loved K (and I really did love K, I’m waiting for his debut) when I saw who he was up against…I guessed that they would choose that person

Simphiwe Ndaba

oh you may be right! they’re hearing the live vocals from the feed with little mixing and stuff and ours is different 😳 i mean if i heard it sound off and stuff i would’ve definitely mentioned it too. ya definitely not a 61.

seth james

ya probably also cause they divided the parts so much to give everyone a chance. it didn’t feel right anymore

seth james

but wasn’t it a global vote?

seth james

that’s true. i think the whole show so far is very much focused in dance. i’m still hoping there’s some vocal challenges in the upcoming episodes but i’m guessing none? haha

seth james

oh haha ya ive watched a lot of survival shows now so definitely can form better opinion 👍🏽

seth james

I'm guessing if the stage we see might have the edited audio but producers will hear the raw audio with their earphones... as if you see them closely, they have an earphone on one ear. Since K's throat wasn't in the best condition, maybe that's why they were making comments about his falsetto and natural voice not coming out well. Only guessing because I agree with you when I saw K's performance, I didn't think it was as good as his other performances but definitely, it wasn't 61 at all (much better of course); and I couldn't tell his throat was not well either. Since producers are making that comment, I am wondering if that's what it is.

I really look forward to your reactions! I love how dynamic and insightful you are while watching. It makes watching it more fun. Also I agree with your take on the ground performance it did feel one note, and it kinda felt like most of them just performed because they had too. I also agree that if Ni-ki was in the center it probably would have made the performance more dynamic and most likely not feel less attractive than the iland performance. Excited to watch the BTS episode next week can’t wait for that reaction.

K was not liked from lots of Koreans,.. so there were some conflicts by the end of the show because they didn’t want him in the line up

Dan

i believe this was proven to be false! the main account that spread this rumor apologized for it after the show ended admitting that the rumors were false, and the allegations that he was racist were a mistranslation. After taking a step back, i do understand the pd's decisions with his age though, and that he might have no longer fit the concept the pds had in mind.

Rinakuro

As for K not making it, I just thought from the beginning of Part 2 that there was a very slim chance that both Niki and K would end up in the final group because they are two Japanese trainees who specialize in dance and neither of them brought much vocal range in this show and then when it came down to who was left you had Jay who specializes in dance, Heeseung who specializes in dance, Sunghoon who specializes in dance and so on.

I really enjoy watching your reaction for ILAND, because you've already watched Produce seasons and you know the viewer's sight and I can really relate to you.

Dan

if i remember correctly i think something was released that K posted some offensive stuff or something like that.. can’t remember if it was proven real or not but it was released during the last episodes.. also his age was way older then the youngest member of enhypen almost 10 years so i think the producers thought of enhypen as a whole and that’s why they didn’t chose k

InRealLifeTV

hearing you wonder why K didn’t make it into the final lineup... yeah me too :,). i watched i-land after enhypen debuted although i didn’t know the full final lineup, and unexpectedly fell in love with K for his facial expressions, dancing, and stage presence (also personally i really loved his voice even though i don’t hear people talk about it often). it was heartbreaking to find out he didn’t debut with enhypen, but i’m glad you’re noticing him a lot more now! i’m currently waiting for his debut with taki, ej, and nicholas in the bighit japan group. you can look forward to seeing him get to shine even more as we move onto part 2 as well as the others :)
