I'm definitely not watching UL and especially this episode AGAIN. I just can't watch my boy Woongki cry like this, I had to prepare myself for this one😭😭 I'm just so proud seeing AHOF doing so well already and Woongki getting all this love that he deserves so much after having so many struggles. I'm so excited for the next episode, it's one of my favorites uhuu

2025-12-17 22:17:31 +0000 UTCmy conspiracy theory is that ZenZen asked to be traded into Rhythm, hence the reaction 🤭 after the show, groove members have mentioned that Changsub would always ask them if anybody wanted to voluntarily be traded into another team, as he was worried that some of them might prefer being in other teams instead of staying in Groove

2025-12-17 03:23:44 +0000 UTCAlso I have to say... I know they said woongki "left" the team but that's definitely not the full story, they obviously would never disclose this on a show like this but in wakeones initial statement they definitely stated that woongki, seongmin & minsu would be leaving to1 due to the fact that they want to re-brand the group and these 3 apparently do not fit the rebrand, on top of it woongki has been on hiatus for a while for anxiety before that. And there's all these rumors about homophobia & mistreatment within wk1 which you can tell zb1 is facing partly as well, so I dont think it was just a matter of "oh woongki wanted to leave so he did"! Also I'm not saying woongki wasnt close to his previous members, they definitely were, but there's probably also a reason that the only member he is still in contact with is seongmin but yeah I think what u said about him not staying in contact with the others to be able to fully leave it all behind could definitely be true!

2025-12-16 19:38:27 +0000 UTCthe craziest thing to me about Park Han's placement was always the fact that he's not even ugly? like he has such pretty sharp features so I really was always so confused about people's opinion on his looks (not you PD!)

2025-12-16 18:49:04 +0000 UTCI felt so bad for team beat not winning with mamma mia, bc even tho groove might have better vocals and the members individually stood out more, I feel like team beat still executed the overall concept better and actually did it how el capitxn intended the song to be 😭 there was just way more emotion, like I personally felt nothing watching team grooves performance
Annika
2025-12-16 18:30:51 +0000 UTCcan’t agree more! groove members were the better vocalists and had better technique, but there was something that their performances lacked for me. it didn’t evoke much emotion compared to beat and rhythm’s. still changsub’s strategy worked and you gotta hand it to him! he knew what live audiences wanted! that’s experience right there!

2025-12-16 15:06:41 +0000 UTCI just found out that James recently debuted in a tpop co-ed group called Alters Their song is good

2025-12-16 04:19:02 +0000 UTCalso woongki and kyungho's arc resolution and how starting from this episode you could only see them smiling, clapping, and supporting each other from the side aaaa :'(

2025-12-16 03:44:45 +0000 UTCthe bafflement when episode 6 preview came on lmaooo i'm so excited to see your Little Prince reaction <3 and all the inter-team friendships and interactions !! i remembered someone say if this was an mnet show JL and Hani would have been pitted against each other, so I'm glad Universe League actually added in little comments like JL's where he was worried how Hani still wasn't called for Groove's top players. The respect, camaraderie, and friendship this show portrays is such a breath of fresh air :')

2025-12-16 03:08:15 +0000 UTCPrison groove team is one of my favorite performances. I agree that performance wise the other team was better but I feel like when it comes to the song itself and how it was sang I prefer groove and if the challenge was to keep the song I agree that their win was deserved…literally one my most replayed songs this year lol

2025-12-16 01:27:34 +0000 UTCYea im so glad el capitxn and woongki found each other through this. You can really tell how much they adore each other and it's so sweet to see them mention each other a lot to this day <3 on another note i recently i saw fancams of El Capitxn's concert in manila and my heart felt so warm seeing the amount of ahof stans who went to support him, especially after the (not so accidental) spoiling of the setlist by jewelz lol. he and most of the vendors were crying becuase of all the love and support and i cant help but be so happy for these people. Despite the" Beat Down" they really REALLY won in the end :')))

2025-12-15 21:33:34 +0000 UTCIt's so interesting to me there's another korean reactor on yt that mentioned that JL and Park Han are two of the craziest contestants theyve ever seen on a survival show. Universe League really got lucky with those two istg

2025-12-15 21:25:30 +0000 UTCLord knows how EXCITED i am for episode 6 to see pd's thoughts on THE stage that catapulted not only Park Han in the rankings (imo) but the show in general at the time. The one and only stage that surpassed even the title song of the show in views and likes on youtube yipeeee. episode 5 and 6 really is the turning point for this survival show i must say edit: just checked - it's supassed we ready in views only oops

2025-12-15 21:24:13 +0000 UTCoh seeing woongki cry broke me. i cried too. It also broke something in El Capitxn. El Capitxn even said recently and publicly that he will make sure Woongki will never cry again or face hardships, he will continue to promote and support AHOF, until they dont have to feel 'uneasy about their future anymore' . That is Woongki's father by industry

2025-12-15 20:46:32 +0000 UTCI don’t know about the live audience, but the score difference between Groove and Rhythm for Prison is wild.

2025-12-15 20:13:48 +0000 UTCah i can't wait for my favorite naneun neoya and the holiday episode
Sadie
2025-12-15 19:46:51 +0000 UTCI speculated in a previous episode that the directors must have a hidden rule from the show that they can't take another team's top player
Aine
2025-12-15 17:44:57 +0000 UTCI keep wondering why Woongki and JL were not traded, maybe there was a hidden reason

2025-12-15 17:27:59 +0000 UTCPD, Sirin probably reminds you of Kyungjun
Sven Lenders
2025-12-15 16:37:12 +0000 UTCI felt so bad for Woongki
Alex
2025-12-15 16:36:55 +0000 UTCI enjoy rewatching with you.. See you in the next episode 💜

2025-12-15 16:23:30 +0000 UTCThe way it got scheduled for the week of Christmas, PERFECT TIMING! ❤️
Aine
2025-12-15 15:44:16 +0000 UTCYeah, the first round of voting ENDED when the show started airing. So it was all based on just contestant profiles and the signal song. Anyone who wasn't previously known (or especially handsome according to viewers) was seriously disadvantaged.
Aine
2025-12-15 15:43:32 +0000 UTCthe eliminations this round were awful as they basically only counted the votes from before the show even aired which is why jiang fan was so low down also crazy to think that Steven is older than Yang Yang

2025-12-15 15:21:53 +0000 UTCYou will definitely enjoy the next episode. Waiting for your reaction 😉

2025-12-15 15:19:00 +0000 UTCYou can bet Aine’s comment will be under Universe League post (friendly joke, not meant in a bad way)

2025-12-15 15:11:47 +0000 UTCOof, this episode was BRUTAL. Team Beat absolutely should have won Mamma Mia, I blame the blatant pandering with the abs and sexy concept, which DID NOT FIT THE SONG. But of course the live audience ate that up 😒 I will admit, vocally Team Groove had the stronger performance of the song but the concept was a total mismatch imo.
