BOYS II PLANET EP 13 - DISCUSSION

BOYS II PLANET EP 13 - DISCUSSION

Comments

I completly adoooorreeee this line up, tbh I am even more satisfied than zb1's line up (might be my one pick being jay lol), 5/8 of my picks made it (geonwoo, junseo, sangwon, leo, xinlong) but I don't mind at all anxin, jiahao and sanghyeon as I also like them a lot.. honestly as soon as geonwoo was anounced I was satisfied with it as he was my one pick. I would say tho I would have loved junmin donggyu and KANGMIN to be on the line up too, it was hard that kangmin and junseo were top 8 candidates as I wanted both, but I san verivery so I hope more people tune in. Anyways so excited for alpha drive one's journey.

I hate that we only got the cute filler content in the finale when it should've been all throughout the show so we get to know the trainees' personalities and friendships better. I feel like last season, I got to know everyone pretty well by the semi-finals. This time, you have to really dig into the behind the scenes content. Did you know that Haneum and Geonwoo are long-time friends and trained with Park Hanbin and Sung Hanbin? I know soo many people are dunking on ALD1 because they don't look or feel the most cohesive. But honestly they just need time. And 5 years is a long time! Sangwon and Xinlong are apparently roommates now and I can see their personalities meshing well. Sanghyeon is really the perfect maknae because you just can't help but dote on him. Lots of promising member combinations already. Will always be forever so upset that Liyu and Kangmin didn't make it. Liyu is someone who won me over by his personality. He's only grown over the course of the show (he sang his first lines in Rose Blossom SO WELL) and predebut stories of him creating a feminist artwork and involvement in his school clubs are so heartwarming. As you said, I think having someone like that in a group so hellbent on pushing the "alpha" concept would really redefine what it means to be one. And Kangmin... He's such a reliable performer and also someone everyone seems to get along with. You already commented on just how angry the audience sounded when Liyu and Kangmin were eliminated. The hate on Twitter especially on the K-side has been so awful. I will always forever wish Mnet added two more seats... That would've been a real plot twist.

Thank you so much for these bp reactions, I had so much fun watching it together with you:) I hope we will get additional boys planet commentary episode with our top 8 and the masters just like in the previous season. I'm very excited to see them as a group now

Also agree with ur thought on anxhin not matching the sangwon level. I loved the finale stages, but it kind of became obvious to me that anxhin is just not as good of a center as sangwon

Tania

I personally never had sanghyeon in my lineup simply because 1. I didn’t feel his skill set matched how much attention he was garnering and 2. I knew the other members who could potentially be in the group would have a very different vibe. Like u said PD- the other group members just are a bit more intense. Geonwoo wasn’t my choice either because his performances didn’t stand out to me. But he does fit the vibe of other members here. I also think having Liyu+ Sanghyeon wouldn’t have fit the group. I personally also think they’re no on the same skill set level as the other members (just my opinion). All that aside I wish Junmin and Dongyu made it😭

Tania

Personally i think they would really suit the BTS sound from 2016-2018. Blood Sweat & Tears, DNA, Fake Love alongside all their b-sides from then

Kim Chaewon

I've watched this show from episode 1 to the finale, and I've never seen Anxin cry even once. When Anxin cried while holding Kangmin, I was shocked and cried along with him.. My heart still hasn't calmed down

Lina29

team brat attitude! (Liyu shouldve been in the lineup...)

Emine

anxin didnt even cry much in the show and the first time he bawling was because kangmin not making it. it's so sad for ME and ANXIN lol.

tamkan

kangmin and anxin were literally my fav duo,,, i’m so devastated.. one of the few k trainees who actually tried to properly connect with the c trainees despite the language barrier. anxin didn’t even cry for himself but he cried so long for kangmin.. MNET STOP TRYING TO TAKE AWAY MY FAMILY 😭😭 also im not mad at junseo making it i just wish they were 9 members 💔 and yeah alpha drive one is a ridiculous name and im very scared for their upcoming musical direction @wakeone you better lock in 😭😭😭

ً

B2P DONE. CAN'T WAIT FOR LASTART REACTION HAHAHA

Kezia Veracruz

PD! Universe League is CALLING FOR YOU! I a very chill survival show!

Wiktor

You know WHAT. I miss the Rigging 🤣 the Planet Series lineups have been predictable. I predicted 7/8 contestants and I DID NOT watch the show like I did with every previous season. Must be the FIRST season I stopped watching as I didn’t like anyone and that’s a feat in itself. Even predicted the rankings in order too 🤣 only one I messed up on was Junmin for 8th but junseo made it. This season was so predictable. Even the rankings.

Wiktor

Manifesting Su Ruiqi for a possible Girls II Planet next year btw

Sven Lenders

we almost didn't get leo in the group 😭 this is the problem with participants who heavily rely on their global fanbases, when korean votes start weighing more, their ranks drop drastically. but at the end I'm SO SO SO glad that he made it !!! 🫂 and it becomes even more special because it's with sangwon. 2025 really is trainee A's year. woochan in ADP, james in cortis, yorch in pow, JJ in smtr25 and now leowon in ald1 🥹 we were in drought for years now it'll all pay off. Looking sooooo forward to this group. P.S I love pd's interpretation of alpha 🤭(trainee: does the most adorable thing possible. pd: THAT'S SO ALPHA)

jerry

i find the group name even the full name to be so awfull btw 😭😭 the drive in the middle just seem so random like altough i dont like the Alpha concept even just Alpha One like you said would have been better for me..... i dont even wanna think about the fandom name

Amanda Araujo

im so confused about this whole new planet c things and i just hope they didnt fuck the group up since it seems it will have more chineses focused promotions, im scared they wont know how to handle it and are doing this just to milk more the boys planet and get more money but lets see...

Amanda Araujo

he didnt switch interest he literally even said he wanted to be sub rapper 1 in brat atitude because he barely got rap lines in the other performances and he really wanted to showcase his rap but again he didnt got the role so he just had bad Lucky throughout the show

Amanda Araujo

i like the lineup, Sangwon was also my one pick and i NEEDED Leo to debut with him and i was really getting my hopes up for Jia Hao to make it since chains, i just wish Kangmin and Junmin (donggyu too but that was me dreaming very high) were in it too maybe instead of geonwoo and junseo but overall is a great lineup with VERY Alpha energy we dont even have the most gay crybaby softie and scaredcat ppl in this lineup craaazy how they match the group name and i love it so much

Amanda Araujo

Actually, I was okay with the group as long as my first pick, Junseo, made it in because I know damn well I can't follow the group without him. After all the hate and death threats he received these past weeks, I was really scared he wouldn't make it. Even here in the finale, he ended up P14 in the Korean votes but P04 in the global vote, and that's what saved him. (Knets are still mad about him and Leo making it to the group). But I'm really happy with the lineup.

HIRAVEE

These are the final rankings of the eliminated: 9th Yoo Kangmin 10th Chuei Liyu 11th Yumeki 12th Jun Leejeong 13th Kim Junmin 💔 14th Chen Kaiwen 15th Park Donggyu 💔 16th Kang Woojin I can't believe Donggyu was SO low and I am mad on behalf of Woojin for the fuckery Wakeone did to him. The way BOTH Geonwoo and Woojin were hit with controversies at the beginning of the show, yet Woojin was the one most negatively affected in the end.

Aine

Damn way to quote me

Jet

If I remember correctly they decided to merge after the company who was going to back C Planet cancelled(I heard it was Yueha but idk for sure) so I'm guessing they got a new company to back it, and they likely won't be under W1. That or W1 saw money signs when they saw the C Planet trainees and wants to take advantage of China opening up restrictions for idol touring and promotion, but I guess we'll find out as it gets closer.

mikadearest

I hope im proven wrong lol

Penn

My only fear with the c group is that apparently it's supposed to have its activities heavily in china so idk how mnet/the final company will treat them. I don't want the boys to be stuck in a boy story situation again and being put in the dungeon after like 1 yr

Penn

No my imidiate guess on the Chinese show would be that people will just vote the ones who got furthest, so Kaiwen, Hanwen, Zihao, …

Sven Lenders

The thing I am most curious about is “Who can participate in Home Race?” Like all 80 participants of the Chinese show or only the 25 (Jiahao, Anxin and Xinlong are in ALD1) or can for example Chingyu and Liyu also join since they are Taiwanese. Because if they are all 80 then Jack might have a shot 😂😂

Sven Lenders

"God damn, that is a long as f*cking name. are we calling it jebeone? NO! I like ZeroBaseOne though, it is their best name yet" These are your exact words, you also didn't get the meaning at first

Sven Lenders

People that have applied to join Planet C Home Race: Fan Zheyi Hu Hanwen Peng Jinyu Zhao Guangxu Yi Chen

Sven Lenders

It is actually a 4/4 split between Brattitude and NB2H

Sven Lenders

Leo litterally rapped in the How To Fly performance or whatever it was called

Sven Lenders

The only moment Sanghyeon kinda got me was this final stage, but imma be a bit harsh on him, he should own the f*ck up to his words. He says he is a hip-hop cat-dog, but all that we have seen from him in that genre was his initial audition, and I think he might have switched interest in the middle of the show because of Liyu. The cause might be because Wakeone just gave him that label (I suspect Sanghyeon and Justin weren't up to par with the other Wakeone guys Chingyu, Shoya, Sunwoo, Reeonn and Tatsuki in terms of dancing so they became Hip-Hop unit). He should show more of his rap side or dance side otherwise I feel like we might just have gotten ourselves a visual pick. And that is something I am not a fan of. I hope he will own up to his words, otherwise he might stick out like a sore thumb.
