meh.

I think I'm gonna follow this program...

Just be ready for rage and heartbreak.

I remember 1st and 2nd season threads managed to do just fine by digging info about Korean trainees still, heck S2 reached incredible numbers of pages while the show hadn't even started to air. For this thread, the intent is just not there, not as much as it could be and used to be during former seasons, for sure. Oh well, it is what it is.

Last season was boys season.

K-fangirls quite active in searching info about them, which also help us to know them.

This season is complicated.

It's a girls season, so less fansgirls collecting the info (lbh, fanboys are quite useless in korea)

Half of the girls are japanese, but not a lot of wota hype about the show, so less info from wota too.

K-fans are being bullied for supporting this show, which make them reluctant to acively show their support.

 

Hope when the show start, all these will change.

Mansae Team 1 busker buskered The Avengers and Justice League is the biggest plot twist of last season Produce101.

 

The advantage of not having any popular member so people won't vote against you

 

Produce is a weird show

Depends, are you talking about the one true Avengers Team?

 

 

 

Anything else doesn't matter tbh.

Anything that include Avengers always a great ride.

Whther it's a great performance like that one, or the mess that this one bring

I'm just waiting for the clusterfuck that is Avengers team

 

Does anyone still want to be part of Avengers tho?

Half of them has turn to dust

 

 

Oops...

that true, there have been instances of that behaviour but it's not too common as it is kept more low key.

 

and a lot of the 48 girls can behave in certain, predictable ways to get more votes from their wotas, for example if they don't achieve a result they were opting for, they would go on showroom and cry to their fans about it, they could pull election related moves such as making promises to get more votes - like promising to perform on stage in a bikini like Sasshi did,

 

 

 

 

 

had to post because hawtness

 

after a while you become used to their techniques as a lot are often inspired by other girls in the past or are overused, certain speeches become routine, that kind of thing.

 

 

Bikini on stage... Interedasting...

Damn it korea, why can't you be like this?

 

 

NGT48 has a lot of drama apparently

 

 

Kato Minami

 

Nakai Rika

She's also been accused of plagiarizing some girl's instagram page, although she completely brushes it off saying she has no clue who the girl is

Neither of them are in P48, so i'll leave it in spoilers

Oooh, hot tea.

Rika be like, idk her lel

 

Seem 48G idols already used to competition, I wonder how will those presented in this show.

Drama please...

AKB behind the scene is a bloodbath tbh, they just know to keep it very low key.

  

 

Make sense, they are the og produce afterall

 

She's above them all, the true Villainess we need

some of them don't even keep it low, *cough* NGT48 *cough* I don't see anything wrong with wanting to get ahead of the competition when you have to compete with hundreds of other girlies tho so pull out all the stops, cry on showroom and get those sympathy votes

 

Wanting to get ahead, but putting down others are different thing, which Daehwi learn the hard way.

Are there any story like this on 48G?

Everyone stan this gorgeous, but calculated, insincere, disingenuous, emotionally walled-up Queen coming to destroy all of your Oppars and Unnirs like the sly fox she is!

Calculative huh? Just the perfect person for this show.

On what level is she tho?

Sejeong?

Daehwi?

Or Cathy?

 

I hope she does deliver a story as great as these people.

I dunno why but I keep getting this feeling that the final debut group will be filled up with tall girls, 165cm and up and most will be 168 to 170+ cm specimens.

Thank god it's just your feeling, cos most of the girls are below height average.

Mnet better deliver Sakura vs Jurina storyline, otherwise, what is the point sending both of them here?

Idc if you are a Jurina stan or Sakura stan (I do enjoy when their stans fighting), but if you are a Jurisaku shipper, then gtfo mate.

 

Cursed images :

 

 

 

tbf korean trainees got experience as trainees while the 48 girls got at least 4+ yrs of experiences as actual idols. Appeal vids are supposed to show off their charm and that's what 48 are used to do.

 

Once they get to the performances in the show it might be different so...

 

yeah, even with their experience, kpop is a whole another thing for 48g

tho, even k-trainees themselves can be suck

 

can only believe in Kaeun for now from k-trainee

gonna need to see their evaluation first

Currently the most viewed self intro on Naver.

People need to show some love for Korean trainees on Naver though

 

mention any korean trainee who actually did something noteworthy on their vids

 

pro tip: you can't

 

k-trainee need to step it up

Kpop idol usually need to win a music show to even have a phone, much less an SNS acc

 

RIP nugu...

 

hope this show can combine the best things about 2 culture, and throw away the bad ones.

"I was hacked"

 

lel if only she actually said that, it might soften the blow

 

"My twitter wasn't working"

 

????

Oh lawd...Sakura is doing the pity party "I'm not confident in myself" routine.....Girl, we remember you calling Meru fat on twitter can we not....

 

her twitter wasn't working, ok?

Is ZB under ONO, or Moonbok just know Alex?

Well, I'm just happy that my man support one of my main.

Funny aside, I can see why Jurina wasn't in S class.

Well, with that confidence, she doesn't have to be.

God is fair.

so do we know their class by the color they are wearing? or is it random

 

random

 

-----------------------

 

NATSUMI!!!!!

 

Hello there, Suzy, I mean, Sihyun

 

Kim Minseo's company's name is HOW

 

HOW? I know I'm childish, but that is just funny to me

jurina is here to win yall

Yeah Mako is awesome and all, but she is part of Jurina's harem

 

Yeah, when is it, by the way?
