Hmm, how to answer your question.... LOL. They're very popular here on OH forums and quite internationally. In Korea, it's a tricky question, I would say none of the new ones are as popular as the oldies but they all have their own group of fans. I have yet to see anyone claiming that Chanwoo is their bias from the group of 9 though, while for Jinseok, there are.

:( You mean someone said he won't have a chance to go back to dorm? Before anyone gets pissed, I will need your help to find the original source because some fans can be rather sensitive and I wouldn't want this to be blown out of proportions. New selfie Thank you, pls do post it tmr if no one uploads it. Million thanks<3

Can I get the source? Would love to read what he said

New teaser

NEW EP 8 TEASER. THE END IS NEAR. All the performances look amazing from the front. Imagining all of them in HD glory. ;( I feel like we've been through so much, *pats* everyone on their backs. We've done well and our boys have done well.

Quoting this because everyone needs to read this. I saw those tweets and I'm like.... the f. If you see any posts that are pro Puppy and needs translation, you can drop it here I'm not super fluent in korean, but I can understand high intermediate-advanced hangeul, will try to help. You have to bid for them in GMARKET.

Hi, came in to say I love him and you guys. <3 let's continue to support him no matter where he ends up in~

That title "Is it only me or does 6B + Jung Chanwoo not make any sense?" She goes on to elaborate on her reasons but the main reason is "everywhere she goes, she can see that Chanwoo doesn't have many personal fans(people who list him as their bias), even the one who smokes, Jung Jinhyung, has more than him. Yang Hongseok looks like he can aim for the Chinese market and also take up acting in the future(visual). I feel that if 6B adds in Jung Chanwoo, I'm afraid that there's not much impact for iKON's debut." The fan sounds extremely worried. Top comments are "if Hongseok tweaks his singing style, he most probably can be another Nam Taehyun", "Yeah out of the 3 new trainees, Chanwoo has the least amount of fans" They are only realizing that Chanwoo supporters are not fans of him now... whereas for the other two, it's a different case. V edit;;; tears

"non children" LOL That article's talking about Bobby VS B.I: Who's more popular? The person's view is Bobby wins B.I so that explains why there's an almost equal amount of upvotes and downvotes. Personally, Bobby is more popular than B.I. Like wayyy more if you're talking about nation-wise. But if you're only comparing it to the iKON fanbase, they're about the same. Top comment is "Don't write these kind of things(?), why treat BoB.I(they call these two by sticking their names tgt just like BI.HI) like this"

I'm just going to leave this bomb here and say goodnight. Enjoy. https://twitter.com/KIMJ1WON/status/526139889570422784 ..... ....... ......

^ The way you wrote your post.... I laughed. Cute. I thought it would be Nam Tae Hyun for you. MY...oh my. I don't even know what to say to this, I think I have to share this in the iKON thread, it's too hilarious and jawdropping at the same time.

I watched the first two episodes and it's better than the Jdrama's first two episodes. The acting in the jap drama is bad so far(I've only watched the first two eps),especially the leads, they sound and look like they're practicing their lines. I thought Kim So Eun was obviously not as realistic as her three costars Dal Goo, Woo Jin and Do Young but the difference between the 2 adaptations is so jarring I can't even compare the acting.

^ it will never make sense for her to talk on Roommate about Jessica. How she left was not the best way she or they could have done so. And Roommate gives off a really happy vibe most of the time so it would be jutting for the viewers as well.

Coming from an ex-mod from another huge fan forum(think another OT9)... the bashing here is not even worth batting an eyelid. Seriously. But there's not enough love here either.

Some things can’t change with just one or two essays, those who anyhow wrote mean things about people should repent. You stated that you wanted to be a part of iKON every time you have your solo interviews, I hope you get your wish. Regardless of the outcome, please continue working hard like the Bobby and Hanbin you liked who liked you too. Don’t be unhappy because of some petty people, and treat them as part of your experience of being an artist. cr: weibo user cannotsuemore and a picture to cheer the thread again, thanks to weibo user BOBBYXPANDA

No problem~ will do it in the morning

Year 2012. Yes they knew each other, but i think they literally only knew about each other's existence through the trainee campaign but not as personal friends.

Baidu and weibo! But more on baidu. Anyway saw some hilarious pictures of cfans using screencaps of Hongseok in the unreleased clip to make a meme. Do you believe that my bite can kill? Do you want to try? Have you heard of Alain? Ever since mastering the book, I'm now a superman because of the powers! (It might be a little hard to get the joke, but it's saying as if the book is an ancient Chinese kungfu skill manual so that's why he's a master now...that can bite )

Here's a Chinese fan who posted her thoughts on her weibo and after reading.... I was terribly touched and needed a moment to not feel so sad for my baby Hongseok. And I translated. Original weibo is here. 15 likes. Yang Hong Seok, It’s Okay, I Support You Supporting you, I’ve been supporting since the beginning, because your voice is really beautiful. I guess I’m one of your first batch of fans. Initially, I think myself as a casual fan of yours. But certain things have happened since then to change my mind of not just being a casual fan anymore. From the first episode, you were criticised so badly, reason being that you’re rude, you look arrogant. I don’t want to refute, not because I think the same. You were not rude nor arrogant. Having lived in China for a years(for you), and as a Chinese myself, I say that you’re magnanimous(in taking the first steps to make friends). Thumbs up. From the second episode to the third and subsequent episodes, your screen time got lesser and lesser. What was shown when you appeared was that you didn’t blend with the team, as if you were not hardworking. I understand that the show wanted to get some kind of conflicts for dramatic effects, but I can’t understand why you were used as the only bait. Obviously you worked extremely hard seeing your improvements in your dancing, yet it wasn’t shown in the program. I can only say, "HongSeok ah, it’s okay, we know you’ve worked hard.†<3 (after this paragraph, I really took a short break to gather myself.) In Beijing, you used Mandarin to introduce yourself and raising each and every fan’s banners non stop, we know that you cherish your fans. Especially since you have a smartphone, of course you will be able to see the comments towards you outside T_T. This night, I won’t say I’m frustrated, I will say my heart aches. Even though you know the whole world outside is misunderstanding you, and you have nowhere to explain yourself, I guess that’s why you said you will probably be the last. If I’m in your position, I think I will only cry. Went to twitter and looks like quite a few have stopped being against you, supporting you. But there’s still the people who are happy that you didn’t get to place in the rankings. When I read those words, it truly felt painful, those people used other’s pain to make themselves happy. If it’s me I wouldn’t be able to do that. Why are some people so weird, always using stepping down on others to support their their favourites. Hongseok ah, it’s okay, regardless whether you debut or not, in YG or not, I will be there to support you. Please be happy. I’ve listened to all your singing and think you’re the best. ______________________ I will scour through the Jinhyung tag and see if there's anymore posts that shows people understand that his rumours were not true.

hmm I've been on weibo this whole day but the top topic is definitely about their advancement towards the Chinese market as there's people who are happy, but people who's also worried because hiphop is not a popular genre over there. Well, I think I would call iKON more pop than hiphop right now. And I checked the tags of each member and there's a camp for CW but also another camp for Hongseok(with more thumbs up and retweets), even with the tag #SmileHongseok. Mostly people are talking about how evil the editing is, and they are saying "Does YG think we're brainless to not see..." etc. Don't lose hope.

You're an angel. Spreading this clip on my twitter~ Maybe you should add in the description box that the clips goes in order from their first time with the team and then subsequently, showing their improvements.

That's actually Chanwoo the nice kid. The day Junhoe start being nice to the members is the day I will change my name.

I went to listen and it was an unnecessary "Oh" adlib he tried to do, but it was not a croak. +1! *waves at the fellow Singaporean* Thanks for the positivity, I do think this thread doesn't need all the drama because the M&M thread was a little too much to handle in comparison. And to answer Hardnut's question for the OT6 fans from the beginning... No I will not leave the iKON fandom just because Chanwoo is added in(if he is). 6 > 1 imo and Chanwoo is indeed a sweet boy who deserves no hate(not a fan of hate and negativity). I just wish for the group and his own sake, he is a self value-adding machine(someone who improves on their lacking skills a lot and shows the improvement through every comeback). I will cry for the potential stellar lineup but I think realistically, I will get over it, just like how I did after WIN. For now, I will put in my every effort for Hongseok and Jinhyung(through the campaign) because I think they both deserves to debut,(might not need to be in YG even). My main reason to help out in the campaign is to gather their fans and make sure they don't go unnoticed by the masses through Mix & Match. MNet pushes Chanwoo, while the fans, like us, push JinSeok. It's only fair to them tbvh.

A clearer fancam of the Eyes nose lips performance. I think it was shared previously in here too, but after listening to this, it seems that Donghyuk didn't do any falsetto parts? And a fan said Taeyang complimented Donghyuk on his falsetto...I really hope what I'm thinking right now did not happen. Hopefully the fan heard wrongly. and here's a Hongseok pic to cheer you guys up~ ^^
