2025-03-02 04:17:35 +0000 UTCOh shit, we're getting into some LONG episodes ok. - Wtf is Sung Hanbin doing here?? - I guess it makes sense. Izna is the next Mnet survival show group right after ZB1. - Ah there's that I-Land ruthlessness that I know from season 1. - Obviously I know the final lineup and I wouldn't want to change it. But just judging from what I've seen on this show so far, this would be my top 6: Jungeun, Fuko, Koko, Sujung, Mai & Saebi. Those are some really hard choices... - Oh god, please don't remind me of Yurina. I'm still upset about that 😫 - At least all the girls get clean, comfortable accommodation. Unlike Sixteen where the Minors had to stay in actually run-down dirty dorms. - Baggy Jeans in a skirt just doesn't work 😅 - No, as far as I'm aware, there is not another ZB1 MV coming. Doctor Doctor was the prerelease, Blue is the title track. And that's it. (Now or Never was a Japanese release, that's separate) - Agreed, the stutter effect on Lovesick Girls is unnecessary. But I like what they're doing with La Vie En Rose. - What if, in 12 hours, it's not even the interim test but the actual performance proper? 🤠 - Jeemin is having bad self esteem issues here. - Saebi might be the leader for Lovesick Girls but it feels like it's really Jungeun who's calling the shots here. - Yeeah, Jungeun really should let Saebi lead and not interfere as much. - Jiyoon is actually a pretty damn good leader. Nice. - Self evaluation is a really good tool. When I was part of a theatre club, we did that all the time. Having to give feedback on others' performances makes you really think about what to look out for in your own performance as well. - So the issue is that Jiyoon feels betrayed by Jungeun and cannot trust her anymore? - Hey, at least Jeemin is actually really trying now after the evaluation. Progress! - You make a very good point. They've been cooped up in that one building for so long. Finally seeing fans in person makes a huge difference. - Beautiful. How Jeemin got her full confidence on that stage. Gyuri also really surprised me. Shame about those two mistakes from Sarang. Fuko was really strong as she always is. Very good overall. - I'm thinking that Mai is giving off Yeji vibes in that outfit. - Hmm. I know this is an individual competition but Sujung is becoming a bit too individualistic for my liking. - Yes. The fun thing about a cover is the way in which it's different from the original. If Disturbed's version of The Sound of Silence sounded exactly like Simon & Garfunkel, it wouldn't have become such a huge hit. Same here. If Sujung tries to sound exactly like CL, I might as well just listen to the original song. - Good, Sujung found a way to make it a bit more her own. But the true standout here was Jiyoon! - That is indeed the question. When the song, beat and choreography are completely predetermined for them, how much space do they really have to make things different from the original? There's only so much you can do then. If the producers want to see something completely new, they have to let the girls create their own choreo, write an original verse or something else like that. But that option did not exist here. - I'm convinced, Mnet actively wants to be as annoying as possible. Just in case they decide to not show it in this episode, I decided to look up the scores on Wikipedia: Sujung got 153 votes, Mai got 158 votes. - What the hell are the subtitles on about? „Lovesick Girls is the only test song with a rap“ Ok, what about I Am The Best? Is that song not 80% rap? - Maybe I'm easily irritated today but I don't understand what the producers want. Why is Monika complaining about the fact that Saebi both raps and sings? Is that not exactly what the predetermined part distribution asks of her? - And why is an old-fashioned rap style a problem now? - Koko is definitely a better fit for the main dancer part. Jungeun should have let Saebi actually be the leader instead of enforcing her personal bias. - Yuju could be a bit louder in her parts but overall, I liked this performance the best out of the three! Jungeun is just born for the stage, and honestly so are Koko and Saebi. There's a reason why I put them in my top 6 above. - ?????? Why is Jungeun's score so low?? Ok, with this episode my top 6 has changed a bit. I'm now sitting at: Jungeun, Fuko, Jeemin, Saebi, Koko & Jiyoon

2025-03-01 21:41:52 +0000 UTC- yes DG the case of Kaeun who was not in IZ*ONE while she was first or 2nd all along the show made no sense to me. well I think you felt it but it will be the same thing here. some members who have always been high up until now will fall drastically in the ranking and some will either be eliminated or qualify narrowly. and it's a shame that you were spoiled DG because Jungeun is one of the members who will have a very difficult end. and the end of the show will still have surprises in store for you - IZ*ONE at blacklabel LOL I would have liked to see that. I think it would have been one of the greatest groups of all time. but IVE and LESSERAFIM would never have existed. and they would have had fewer comebacks. no actually IZ*ONE was very good like that. but it's cool to see that their songs survive and are rearranged -La vie en rose Team it's going to be very hard like for Panorama before the arrival of AESPA IZ*ONE was the most vocally talented 4th generation group. and very few groups can cover them without lowering the key to make sure that the members can reach the highest notes. but I think Fuko will do the job, she's one of the best vocalists on the show - Lovesick girl Team the rivalry between Yuju and Koko will intensify over time. both are very talented but very different. Yuju is a better rapper, but Koko doesn't lack much to be at her level, she really needs to work on pronunciation for dancing Koko is more powerful, more impactful and Yuju is smoother, more graceful. even if Yuju is my ultra bias in the show I would have chosen Koko. the problem is that Saebi is biased because she is very friendly with Koko, and Jungeun chose Yuju without taking into account the choice of Saebi who is nevertheless the Leader. this proves that Saebi does not have the experience to be a leader. - yes Jungeun is starting to take a little too much confidence. let's see where all this leads. - i'am the best Team Sujung takes too many risks I think she seeks to have lead or main vocal positions while she is a dancer. she thinks that her dancer position is safe and wants to try something else. which is all to her credit. but the thing is that in dance she did not impress the judges more than that. for many KOKO is also good I think that for this performance she should have taken the dancer position. - Team Rose performance Fuko was very good, it's the value of the show, she never disappoints. Gyuri and Jeemin did the job but against all expectations the mistake came from Srang who was very comfortable and confident during the rehearsals. The show showed only good performances until then, it may be the worst performance of the whole show. - WTB Team same for the outfits, it's my favorite team. It's the best performance, the 4 girls were perfect. But it seems that Jiyoon and Juwon were possessed, their expression, their energy, they saw that they had a blast on stage. Bravo I didn't understand Taeyang's criticism, the goal wasn't to reinterpret I'm the best. They had the same choreography and the same song. If they had been asked to change the choreography and write lyrics or a slightly different rap, I would have understood. But they just did a cover and for a cover it was very good. Juwon in 3rd place is not justified for me, she deserves 2nd place. -Team Lovesick girl Yes, I didn't like seeing Yuju receive criticism from Lee-jung and Monika. As I often say, I love her. But it actually comes from Saebi's lack of leadership, who didn't know how to assert herself and put Koko as the main dancer from the start. She let Jungeun take control. But Yuju has to go all out and prove what she's capable of. LOL Yes, it's "stone cold" Jung Saebi, honestly she's a born idol and center. for sure Saebi and Koko were the best on this performance. and like you DG even if I love Yuju she didn't show a great moment in this performance. but fortunately she was very popular in the forums and I knew she could survive despite a bad performance. for Jungeun things started to get complicated at this time. and the tension between her and Jiyoon didn't help. she remains a good performer but her popularity dropped after a few episodes. - LOL DG I can't even speak English properly at a normal speed I don't even try to speak quickly. even in my native languages Korean and French I have a rather calm flow. -

2025-02-28 10:11:28 +0000 UTCNot sure if you read my comment on the last episode but Yui, Chaeeun, Um Jiwon making their debut in May! So happy to see Yui also I'm excited how much Chaeeun improved! Um jiwon was already very good for her age can't wait to see her too! and a reminder.. the people who don't know the IZNA line up don't look into Yui and the others you might spoil yourself because there is one more member.. but isn't eliminated yet.
