I-Land | Ep 5 Reaction

Which Vlive was?

Yari Alcala

Oh this episode - as much as I love this show this one always makes me so mad. Here we go. The producers comments about Jaeho: firstly about him not quite fitting in with Ni-ki and Nicholas. Yes, that was exactly what Ni-ki was saying and why he wanted to switch him with Hanbin - which you guys advised against. Proves him right, there. And the part about Jaeho being added in halfway through - no? He originally had the part, and Hanbin was actually the one deserving of that exact consideration during the midpoint evals but did he get it? No. Then the whole "leader Ni-ki" situation. 100% agree with what you said - 12 people and only Ni-ki can lead them? It really isn't his responsibility to step up and have everyone in the room get teir sh*t together, and still so many were hating on him for his reluctance in the beginning - which was completely reasonable of him btw. Also did everyone watching and criticising him forget how damn young he was here? Only Daniel was younger iirc. Yes - Ta-ki actually is older. And everyone was gushing about how cute and young *he* was, didn't they? But Ni-ki got all the pressure of how he was supposed to be mature and lead the others while none of them were stepping up to even try it. And knowing the "leader Ta-ki" ep we'll get to later on, the hypocrisy of many of the viewers frankly pissed me off even more. "Oh he's so young, *of course* he doesn't know how to lead a group, the others should step up and help him more - poor guy having so much pressure on him" oh please. .. no, I'm not still salty about this years later, why'd you think that?

In this episode you will see Sunoo and Niki’s “iconic umbrella scene” which was aired on July 24, but actually happened/shot on June 24 which is Sunoo's birthday. They talked about this in their Vlive. Also in Enhypen&Hi, Sunoo is expressing a bit of his sadness where he said that it always rained on his birthday then Heesueng replied, because the sky was touched. Watching this episode again made me realized that oohh this is what they are talking about. My hearteu. P.S. Engenes (Enhypen fandom name) were captivated by Sunoo and Niki’s friendship. Among the members, these two are really the closest when they first debuted. And everything started with this umbrella scene. Engenes even marked July 24 a year after as “Happy SunKi’s Day” to celebrate their friendship. :)

About Ni-Ki's facial expressions for the dance unit performance, it might be because he was sleeping before performing, and woke up just before going on stage (they said it in one of their Vlives), and that's why his face is so puffy

A lot of people hated Ni-ki for not wanting to lead the group, and I could not understand why. No one wants to step up and is pushing this 14 yo to lead them. He's done his part in helping the other competitors before, but he's not there to make everyone else debut except himself.

when’s the next episode dropping? i’m getting so antsy .. i count down the days for these reactions

InRealLifeTV

also much more funny moments!

Jade

Don't know if anyone has told you yet but there are two episode 6's, ones an actual ep of I-land and the other one is like a special where other idols kind of come in and do a reaction/ commentary of the aired episodes, its a pretty boring episode so I'd probably skip over it or watch it in your own time if you want but I don't think it has much substance for a reaction. Just a heads up so you don't waste you time not pushing or anything

Jade

yup! the outfit that K is wearing is the same outfit that Jimin wore in one of their fake love music show performances

fruityfairytale

So I think you will enjoy the rest of the series better. I feel like the talent shows wayyyy more. They definitely made it look that way with editing. Also, please watch Enhypen&HI after you finish i-Land cause it starts immediately after the group is announced (and I mean like the day of). You get more insight on them as group. They debuted not even 3 months after the show ended.

the next part is better in my opinion. I love the episode with seventeen. and I think Sunoo shines more and he's my bias haha. love your reactions!

Jemma Park

Just a little fyi episode 6 is broken down into 2 episodes if you are watching it from Viki. The first part is the one you should react too where they reveal the 6 members and where they perform. The send part is just other idols doing commentary are certain parts of episodes 1-5 if you want you can watch that on your own. I'm just letting you know in case you were confused as to why they are 2 episode 6.

Alice

I'm watching it for the first time with you. I'm currently resisting the urge to binge all the remaining episodes out of curiousity 🤣 Btw, if you liked the breakdance bit from the last episode,I can really recommend season 3 of street dance of china. Great coaches (Jackson Wang, Lay, Wang Yibo and another guy which I forgot the name of) and amazing dancers from all kinds of dance backgrounds (bboying, jazz, popping, locking, hip hop and for a short while even krump.

Svenja Ebert

ohh this is legit like big brother! did the mentorship happen evenly or for a long period of time?

seth james

bias wreckingly ! lol

seth james

AHAHA ya same with ni-ki with leadership lol. sigh* hopefully they develop more of that in future seasons

seth james

oh yes that makes sense. also they need to focus on enhypen's success right now. help them really have a good start - resources, attention, focus, etc.

seth james

Just a little bit more info with this show since you mentioned them not showing extra practice time and mentorship, they had live 24/7 cameras throughout areas like the practice rooms and living room spaces that you could watch on the voting website as well as extra footage later uploaded to YouTube. When they had extra practices or mentor sessions that weren't aired, fans that kept up with the extra footage did see that and at the time a lot of that was shared on social media as well, so I do think that footage came into play when fans voted as well

Im happy that you noticed jungwon

Bertois

personally, part 1 (ep 1-6) frustrated me the most. part 2 is a lot better, in my opinion, and makes me feel a lot better knowing there isn't as much heartbreak LOL

Kaytea

I completely agree with what you’re saying about Mentors and how beneficial they could be especially for the more trained members because people’s instinct would be to think that mentors would only really help the lesser trained contestants but I think Heeseung and Jake are perfect examples of why that’s not the case…Jake who had the least amount of training before grew leaps and bounds throughout the course of the show…you could actually see the progress even as someone who’s not professional… but Heeseung doesn’t really progress much from where he started in terms of performance…lucky for him (and us) that he was already insane when he started but imagine if he had been mentored and forced to push himself even further…as a result the 2 of them have completely different archs throughout the show… Jake is training to get better and become a better idol and it’s starts to feel Heeseung is getting leadership training😂 he’s not learning new skills, he’s learning how to lead others… he’s growing as a mentor😂😂

Simphiwe Ndaba

you are right. i-land s2 will likely take place 2022 with a girl version. i don't think they would do it right now since girls planet 999

amberrr

oh that's good info about ni-ki thanks! ... and oh ok... bracing myself lol.

seth james

I think partly because niki’s dad is a dance teacher, he can do so well in leading. Also this show Will frustrate you more in the upcoming episodes so be ready!!
