Why do people think Produce 101 is unfair?

K-Pop has never been about the most skilled or the most hard worker - it's always about who draws the most people to themselves. This is pretty much the situation for every entertainment industry in the world. 

 

Kim So Hye got her spot because she got people's attention. I feel sorry for people who train for years and not become successful in the entertainment industry but the reality is there is only so much room for how many people to be celebrities. If people don't root for you or you have a hard time attracting fans, hard work or skills are pointless...

 

Unless you break the mold, be different, all the same time with majority of the public LIKING whatever sets you apart, can only a star hopeful stand out. What kind of disappointed me with Produce 101 is that the girls seem borderline too manufactured as performers (save for Kim Sejung - that girl stands out naturally without even trying + so much heart in her perfs and maybe Chung Ha). A lot of the girls are technically good but in a 'trained' and 'practiced' way that you can tell they aren't very versatile..

Because in 10 episodes Kim Sohye got more than 100 minutes (its more than 1 full episode only about her) of screentime while Dani got 9 and Doyeon 3. Its not Sohyes fault and Im not hating on her (I like her actually)... I just find it funny how the same people who writes post like this and support Sohye usually hate on AKB48.

The thing when filming a reality show is you also have to make narratives/story arcs from things that are actually happening. Who knows, what if the stock footage they have of Dani/Doyeon doesn't present an interesting/intriguing story arc for TV. Remember, these media conglomerates are after ratings + buzz, and reality shows for one aren't made for journalism. 

 

In Doyeon's case, despite the short screentime I still saw her charms. Totally knew she'd make it to the end. In the beginning, they presented Dani a lot too, but maybe she just did not click with the audience. 

 

Sohye I can totally see why they made the most out - she pretty much was the unlikeliest scenario and the audience always loves an underdog.

Because everyone is like 12 and doesn't understand how the real world works. Talent can only get you so far. Out of the top 11 only Chungha and probably Yeonjung made it into the top 11 based off of talent. Both of them didn't fare off well in the votes until their talents shined. They didn't need a company or storylines to make it.

Most girls like yeun-jung or sejung or somi made it themselves,but I doubt all 11 have made it themselves.

They were more like her yet they only showed her. Dani, Doyeon, others.... Even ifvthey were not the most bright out of tbe girls... You really think it was appropreate to give them only that much screentime? Its miracle Doyeon made it tbh. Dani was highlighted? Like when? In 2nd episode for like 20seconds when B trainees said she is best at performing Pick Me and than in her 1 minute during Yum Yum? And Im not even talking about others who havent survived first or second elimination. Seriously MNET mae it into Sohye's drama show.

Stop spreading this lies and misleading people.

 

That statistic you're quoting is for cuts not minutes and it's only for 2nd elimination (ep 6 & 7) not the whole show.

I liked top 11 but actually not tv viewers the producers are choosing the top 20 with giving more screen time to some girls!..they choose their favourites and make people see them more than other girls so you also focus on them...

 

and I actually think putting them in a raw as winner, 5th, 10th is not right...not only Somi other girls also won but even before debut the names at front row take more interest than the members at back row..ıt would be better ıf fans decide the favourites after they really debut based on their song performance, MV, their act as a group...ıt would be better ıf they debut in same value.

The final lineup is actually full of talent. 9 of 11 were graded A at some point. 8 ended with A, Somi had the B. The two without A's were Chaeyeon and Sohye. Getting promoted does wonders. Chaeyeon was in DIA, was poorly promoted, she was a nugu. She's on Produce 101, gets exposure, and now people are saying she has an aura and she's a top tier visual. She has the same face she had in DIA. Sohye got promoted well by Mnet. Personally, I found her story boring after the Sejeong part and it only got interesting again once Sohee started running the Sohye playbook. I do think Sohye's quirky personality is an asset.

She was bad at dancing so during ITSP practice Sohye started teaching her. And then initially for Crush she got Sejeong and others to teach her. She was like the new Sohye when it came to dancing. Then both her and Sohye messed up in the last episode's Crush training segment and Cathy and Somi had to teach them.

Sohee was an amazing singer tho i feel concept-wise and skills-wise she fit the Top 11 more than Yeunjung

Im quoting it the way how I read it. Means I was misleaded too. Thank you for ponting the true. I wont use it anymore.

 

My pointing about unfair screentime still stands. Its not fault of any of p101 girls, but its fair to admit Sohye got much more screentime than other girls. Ven those in top11. Again I repeat... Im not hating on her. Im hating on MNET actually.

 

But saying the show was fair and square to everyone is another lie and misleading...

IMO in a reality show one should learn how to play the game....
