OFFICIAL ALPACA IM! YOUNG! MIN! THREAD // AB6IX and MXM //

[Chingyus]

Lol ive loved him since he compared himself to an alpaca !~ but seriously that eye contact got me smilling like a fool the entire time 

[Chingyus]

so they released the brand new music  trainee  performance for pd101 
 

we got to see black hair youngmin, omg. slightly disappointed i didn't hear him rap

http://tv.naver.com/v/1600069

[Chingyus]

they released the full performance and im shookt

 

 

 

bnm would be fine as a group by themselves tbh 

Youngmin's voice was pretty deep 

Also, I heard someone say that the pick me stage was after the reevaluation. So does that mean Youngmin later went up to A rank? 

yeehp it was after reevaluation (: haha it seems like it ! Proud of him 

[Chingyus]

I want all of them ~  btw did you guys hear Youngmin , DOnghyun and DongBin will be doing Boys & Girls and paca is apparently the leader ~

 

 

 

but apperently it was kinda messy tho

 

 

[Chingyus]

Yeah, someone in Main Thread posted it and it was sourced from tumblr :

 

This is a summary of all the things I’ve seen so far regarding Youngmin’s performance last night. Please take these with a grain of salt; we do not know for sure what happened until the actual broadcast airs on Friday.

It is confirmed that Youngmin was on the same team as Kim Donghyun and Kim Dongbin. They performed Zico and Babylon’s “Boys & Girls.â€

Dongbin is rumored to be the center.

Dongbin supposedly messed up his lyrics and it caught Youngmin off-guard so his expression was not good and he might’ve stumbled on one of the words in his rap.

Some fans say that their stage was “a mess†but others say they did well.

Fans are predicting that when Youngmin was shown being scolded in the ep 6 preview, it was because of his other team member’s mistakes.

Youngmin might’ve done a satoori rap. His voice is very sexy and was very heart-fluttering.

Donghyun originally wanted to do vocal (acoustic) but instead had to choose rap and did well! He didn’t mess up his rap at all. He also sang Babylon’s vocal parts.

People are acknowledging that Youngmin is a good leader and has suffered a lot. Some are even calling Youngmin the team’s hard carry.

During their ment, Dongbin cried and asked everyone to vote for Youngmin and Donghyun bc of his mistake. Youngmin also cried.

During the interview, Donghyun sang Hongdae Geondae again.

I’m not sure what outfits they wore but this tweet explains it, if anyone can translate it please let me know!

Youngmin was very handsome in real life and possibly wore black and white clothes.

He was also trending #6 on naver right after the recording!

edit: here's more stuff about rap dance and vocal

 

I really want all the BNM boys to head to Top 22 if possible and get the full experience tbh  I want to see all four of them until the final episode (it would be too greedy for me to hope atleast 2-3 of them to enter Top11, so I'm trying to manage my expectations because not all the voters recognise talent  )

 

 

wooow thank you so much for taking the time and summarizing these. Ive seen alot of tweets about some of what you said but I also missed some. Daaaaamn if it was a satoori rap ( + with ym deep voice) I think I can die at piece now    cant wait omfg. Btw ive seen alot of people saying how youngmin always suffers and  man I gotta agree. Omg this poor bb. It was also nice hearing donghyun pick rap (despise being a vocal) to challenge himself in a situation that if he mess up or did bad he can get negative responds and be eliminated. 

 

 

woow I can totally relate ! Imma be heart broken tbh if none of them made it into top 11.  Still, Idk how  or when, but I ended up liking all of the Brand New Trainees despite only liking youngmin at first. thats why Im really happy that people are waking up now and are noticing  the other three instead of only daehwi   

[Chingyus]

yah , im actually part of it  ^^ but I dont really talk in there lol its also so hard to read the previous convo... 

On the other hand I would like this thread to be more active   

[Chingyus]

 

 

 

Reading all this has me even more nervous about next week. I also keep seeing tweets like "why is youngmin always the one suffering" etc and that just makes me even more sad  . I was really hoping this week's preview was just bad editing like usual but after reading the fan accs the thought of his team being scolded does seem higher :/ 

 

On the brighter side of things i am happy to see people acknowledge him as a leader material. It's not easy for someone who rarely has any screen time to be able to have that image and to continue to add onto it.  Also also also people appreciating his visuals and rap style definitely helped too. I now also have high expectations for that satoori rap 

 

 

 

 

off topic and I know i shouldn't jump ahead but i really want youngmin to do the 4th song 'Never' for concept evaluation. If not 'Never' then 'Oh Little Girl' as my second choice and then "I Know You Know' as my third choice. In my opinion, i think Never suits him best. 

 

 

 

I think alot of people like  Never the most I would also love to see youngmin do that ! 

 

 

btw I saw somewhere ep 7 is jsut a few days before voting close ends  and those in rap and dance evaluation would have less time to get votes since their performances airs in ep 7? is this real?

 

[Chingyus]

Yeah, I don't want alpaca to be the icon of suffering because of his teammates either  I was glad he teamed with Donghyun again though! I have a feeling that in ep6's preview, when Cheetah was talking about you can't do as well when you're from Brand New Music ? is referring to Donghyun who is obviously an acoustic guy. Or maybe she was scolding Youngmin who is the leader of that group because of Dongbin who has no experience in rapping either.

 

I hope both Donghyun and Youngmin had done well, I don't want them to lose their smile which is so precious.

 

I think atleast one of them in Top 11 is definitely feasible (Daehwi), if we're lucky we might get two. But I'm all for all four of them to make it to Top 22 but not Top 11 so we can have a debut quick 

omg i was so nervous watching ep 6 , man ym looks so stressed . IKR theyre precious smile omo. i think there is a chance theyll make it to top 22 at least  woojin and ym are getting so many fans, i think its donghyun im really worried about. lool ditch pd 101 and just debut right lool kinda down for that too <3 

 

He cleared the second stage! Good job you guys!

 

 

THE BNW KIDS RISING SO FAST! 

so proud :>

[Chingyus]

 

 

I believe so since that's what happened during the Be Mine episode too. I think mnet will try to at least make it fair by uploading the solo cams before the episode airs just like they did last time. Before i wasn't sure why they uploaded early but now it makes sense. 

 

 

 

 

 

Blessssssssssssss Donghyun 

Also i wonder where the rest of his predebut pictures are coming from. It feels like they're a new one everyday and so many are from his younger teen days too.

 

 

 

 

woah this was really fast. When i voted the day before yesterday ish the bar wasn't even close to the halfway mark for stage 2 

 

Ahhh make sense, im getting so excited omfg

 

 

Ommgg ikr but whoever it is sharing them  he/she shall be blessed. lol   IKR! like i was voting too and i expected it to be in the middle then next thing i know stage 2 is cleared.  i still remember trying trying to clear stage 1, it took forever 

 

btw our paca  was apparently trending on naver and people are talking about him more now on pann nate. 

[Chingyus]

Hello all! 

 

Going to try and stop lurking in this thread for now 

I found out about Youngmin after getting him on the Maboy quiz. His Be Mine performance kind of solidified him as stan material for me though oTL 

I adore his little alpaca smile  He's getting good press on Pann though, hope he makes it far in the show! 

 

 

Also a little random thought: but I heard he was born on December 25th? I wonder if he only gets one gift for both Christmas and his

birthday hah  (because I get only one as well). 

 

Are the BNM trainees debut confirmed? I'd really anticipate that but if either one of them enters the top 11, will BNM postpone the debut until after IOI activities are over? Youngmin is the oldest BNM trainee for now, right? I'm just a slight bit worried.  

 

 

 

Yaaaaaay ! and man how do you even get him in maboy, (lowkey tried to get him so many times tehehe) You should check his intro video and his eye contact (you'll melt because of his smile) lol

 

 

 

 

ooooohh are you perharps born on the 25th too? im born on dec 1 and sometimes I'll only get 1 present too cause they celebrate my birthday late  smh

 

 

Idrk , their ceo said it depends on the result . Awwww daehwi has a high chance getting in tho so they might postpone? but didntt some ioi members company group debuted while ioi was still active?

Youngmin seems to trend a lot there and i really really really hope that transfers to voting too. 

 

 

 

Helloooo, so lucky to get him. I doubt i'll ever get him without giving in to the urge of looking up his answers lol. 

 

 

 

Seeing as how they're all popular enough rn the chances of them debuting is higher. If one of them does enter the top 11 then postponing the debut is the best way to go. Last season the girls got so much hate over debuting while the show was going on and also while debuting when the one year period for the group wasn't over. While I don't like the idea of having to wait so long for ym's debut it's still better than him and the group getting unnecessary hate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Youngmin always is so caring and sweet in the background and I wish people got to see it more 

and now his "i wanted the team to win more" speech suddenly popped in my head 

thisss omfg btw did you see this if knets can vote for one trainee survey? our boy got 10th    and on a simillar one he got 5th . (idk im like so happy people are finally woke) . I was tearing up when he said that like all of his hard work and contribution , he got a low votes but still managed to be happy and even said that . hes such an angel omfg. 

 

yeeeeeees pleaaase didnt rhymer also mention something about this . {sorry i dont reallly remember what exactly he said)

still no matter how long, imma wait... btw theres another brand new music trainee who didnt go on pd101, i really want to get to know him more :>

 

[Chingyus]

i got so emo when i saw his name at 12th   hes so clooooose  omfg 

[Chingyus]

Seriously youngmin deserves everything. Like he has such a humble and kind personality. He's very talented; can rap, dance, & he sounds decent too when singing.  He's also a visual, tall and have good body proportions. I think i did really well of liking this guy and being my first pick since intro vids  

 

 

 

I got so emo on todays episode , since it look like he was having a hardtime, he also cried and felt apologetic due to his mistakes. Plus how he jumped to 12th place from 27th place. like who wouldnt cry omfg. (okay anyways read these positive comments about him )

When I saw that Youngmin got 12th place I squealed so much inside omg I hope he can continue rising 

Also he was super adorable when he made that mistake and I literally cried with him when he cried TT

I love him so so much 

 

I was bawling too even tho i could onyl understand parts of what he said  . It was a shame tho, that mistake but he didnt really panick or blank out afterwards, thank god . GUYS HIS SATOORI OMFG *dead* 

Can't wait Alpaca to sit on that pretty top 11 seat. He skyrocketed w that leader edit in ep 4 pretty sure he's gonna snatch some top 11 spot w this ep's edit. 

YUUUS tbh i wasnt that greedy and hoping he only gets past 3rd elimination but now i cant help but wish he debuts OMFG.  I HOPE SO, like paca suffered so much. hes literally an angel. btw i love your sig. 

[Chingyus]

I still can't believe Youngmin is 12th. I know ranking can be unpredictable but I just never expected this. I'm also still trying to wrap my head around the performance (especially the very very hot part in his rap where he says he's drunk(?) with an accent). Also that one part during the dance part where he looks even more attractive than usual ( i'll post a gif of it when i find it). 

 

My love for youngmin's visual and dance aside, I am loving mnet actually giving him decent screen time with no ill intentions attached. Lately they seem to favor him a little but that's just my thinking. I'm gonna go watch his performance over and over again now.

tbh alot cant believe it.  i certainly thought he would be like 20-24th and i  got so scared when i couldnt see his name in the 20s while streaming and thought he got dropped in 30s and missed his name ( could barely read hangul) then to my surprise 12th. im still not over it. (yes please) 

 

Thats what ive been noticing too. like although his screen time is so short its usually something cute or positive ( i totally get its because they cant find anything to evil edit about him since hes an angel) . Theyve been using him for the teasers too and he really has a decent screen time now (he also stop being the logo boy ok )  ahahah 

[Chingyus]

Youngmin has always been my fav since the beginning and I was only hoping that he'll make it to top 22 BUT OMG HE MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE FOR TOP 11 OMGGGGG

He deserves it so much ><

 

im greedy now and i hope he debuts omfg 

Youngmin is rising like how he deserves!  I wish the same goes for Donghyun tbh, I was expecting a good stage with both of them but someone not to be named had to jeopardise it 

Poor Youngmin he seem so stressed, being under a good label comes with lots of stress to live up to its name  I think he's definitely Jonghyun aka Nation's Leader in the making, just give him a few more years of experience because he has kindness and compassion innate in him.

my heart aches every time i think of donghyun. i call myself a bnm stan but im really happy ym and woojin rised so much that im kinda makin myself ignore the fact donghyun and daehwi dropped rankings. :( mostly donghyun case, boy can sing, dance, play instruments, and decent at rap tbh. hes also so nice *sigh* 

 

i didnt want to say it but his part was hella bad but thinking hes a 7 months trainee im like eh. but still guanlin although not the greatest is getting so much better. tbh the overall perf was still a lil lacking compare to the others (sorry paca and donghyunie) 

 

right the pressure. i mean brand new is not only a good label , its one of the best label for hip hop so yeah poor bb. and he got more stressed cause the expectation is more from him instead of donghyunnie ( imean isnt he a vocal) . People are actually saying their the same kind so that makes me so happy, since i also like jonghyuns personality  and i kinda see it. 

 

BTW IM SORRY IF I TALK TO MUCH I JUST REALLY WANT THIS THREAD TO BE MORE ACTIVE PLUS I LOVE FELLOW YOUNGMIN STANS TEHEEHE

[Chingyus]

Omg don't be sorry! Forums are meant to generate discussion so I'm glad you're pouring it all out here! 

 

Same, it's a hard stance to be in because they won't all rise like how we wish for it to be. Donghyun though, I hope he gets acknowledged for his performance because I thought he did the best. He clearly showcased to be a triple threat - sings, raps and dances well. The last two he's decently enough in it which definitely makes him even more idol material. You're right, the stage leaves a lot to be desired, maybe lack of charisma (I think Daehwi and Woojin has the most stage charisma among the four) or practice or the song choice didn't really match them.

 

Yeah about Dongbin.. Not sure what was it in his mind to choose rap... It's impossible to pick it up within a short period of 1 week, I just can't...  He ruined the stage for me to the point I won't go and review their performance lol 

 

Yup he carries too much burden as the leader. I just want BNM to debut my four boys and Alpaca will have an easier life as the leader because the three are just too good 

hehehe thank yous ~ and yes truly but boy shouldve picked vocal since its his strongest point. I mean he did really well for rap and it was great he wanted to challenge himself. but idk it was a risky move since his position was in the late 30s and its the 2nd elimination..

 

Hmm idk about it lacking charisma ( if you ask me youngmin has it too ) but i agree, but mostly woojin (omg) I actually like the song choices and  i thought it matched them, its jsut that ym made a mistake and he was kinda off in some parts (sorry paca). but overall it was the feel/vibe that i thought was lacking. someone pointed out its because its supposed to be a hype song but they were lacking in that aspect ( which i totally agree)

 

most of all db , yes he was rapping but it seemed like he had no soul, it was so bland that  i cant even. honestly so disappointed since  it could've been a real good enjoyable stage (it was one of my fave song too)

OH YEEES PLEASE, OMFG IM PREPARED 

 

I hope in the next performance, Youngmin will get stuck with better team members. I know that helping the other trainees is what got him exposure but I feel like it also held him back from improving. From the center pick solo stage, you could tell that he doesn't perform as well under pressure. I'm guessing it's because he didn't have as much time to prepare so he didn't feel as confident. In Boys and Girls, the pressure got to him again. I want him to perform confidently next time. The other BNM boys are better in this aspect. They always exude confidence. More so, Daehwi and Woojin. I love Donghyun but I always thought he had the least stage presence amongst the 4 of them but I thought he did well in Boys and Girls. He was a lot more natural than Youngmin and seemed more like the center. 

 

YESSS MY WISH , i mean some would say it would overshadow him and all but i dont really think so.  it would definitely make him improve and make him competitive (im not saying he's not jsut that it'll make him even work harder and i dont think paca will disappoint). Yes, like in be mine, he was busy relearning and making the choreo. then deciding the position , dance break , then teaching it to his teammates. then he also had to check everything was in place regarding his team mates and the overall performance. this poor bb barely has time to prepare and all. 

 

Ohhhh what  i really love about bnm boys. Among 4 of them I think its Woojin, like on stage, but overall daehwi <3 lol i agree , donghyun has the least stage presence. 

Youngmin really would be a motherly leader/co-leader. I know most people prefer the strong types but it's always good to have someone who cares for you so warmly. If ym does end up debuting with the top11 then i think he would be a perfect second leader to jonghyun (since jh's chances of debuting are much higher). They just match imo.

 

 

 

Donghyun.......his situation is just really sad. He has everything that can attract people but the lack of screen time during the early eps hurt him. I'm afraid the most for him during the next elimination :/

 

 

 

 

I think one of the translations floating around said that dongbin wanted people to praise him and say how well he did for his first time? That was his main goal when he jumped into rap. I don't like that mindset at all. You're jeopardizing a team just because of certain fantasies you have in mind with no skills to back it up.

 

 

 

For someone who doesn't perform well under pressure he sure is buried in it every week 

It makes me sad hearing him say how burdened he felt and how he didn't think he was able to become their strength. I too hope that next time we get a performance that he can confidently shine in.

lool or the eldest brother the dongsaengs relied on and always help the mother , i mean if he did debut, jr is the mother and baekho is the father ( lowkey thinks these 2 will debut). 

 

all i can do is sigh and pray for a miracle since hes not really that far from the cut off. 

 

yup read that too also i heard it was his original position (like what his company put him as) i mean it would totally fine but his lack of skills irked me, ik its his first time and he has this stage fright but im sorry but cant help but blamed him 

 

i totally agree  

 

OH BTW I FOUND YOUR GIF

[Chingyus]

@timelady no girl its okay hahaha and you is welcome . and nah i think it was just what his company want him to debut as hahaha remember when seonho was so confused his position was a vocal (still so funny(

 

And omfg ofcourse hes an angel imma fight if they say so ootherwise. Omfffg i feel like hes gonna get in top 11 for sure next ranking. Omfg i feeel it.

[Chingyus]

This trending Pann posts says that Youngmin entered Brand New Music 6 months ago and trained in rap for only 4 months before Produce 101

 

http://pann.nate.com/talk/337087052

 

 

 I actually new about this but I DID  NOT KNOW HE ONLY TRAINED IN RAP FOR ONLY A COUPLE OF MONTHS cause hes really good tbh so i thought hes been a rapper for long  like atleast mroe than a yeear 

Thanks for sharing!

 

That's what I said in the BNM boys thread when we were guessing what the four of them would pick for position evaluations and discussing Youngmin's rapping (link for those who still don't know about it yet, join us if you like the rest of them too~). It kinda hurt to see some people saying that he also screwed up Boys and Girls, but it's good to have it confirmed that he hasn't been training in rap for very long. Imo he handled the situation very professionally and even seasoned performers mess up sometimes (like Jonghyun) so I think he did great, all things considered.

 

Personally based on all the other research I've done so far (really need to make a post in their group thread but lazy + short on time), I think Brand New Music might not actually be that ready to debut their new boy group. They're still holding auditions and they don't seem to have a main rapper yet (Woojin is the best of the four but will probably be pushed as main dancer, plus I feel like they would have sent him on PD101 if they had him...maybe his dancing still needs work and/or he is less of stan attractor than the others?)

 

So even though I am a billion times more interested in the BNM new bg than the PD101 new bg, I guess I've kinda accepted now (with vote reset, the screentime he got in episode 6, and growing number of onepick supporters) that Youngmin will very likely be in the final 11. In my mind I was still hoping that they would make top 22 but rank below 11 and debut together right away. Sorry if this sounds crazy to the people here who are only individual fans of Youngmin haha.

 

But yeah, that he chose rap over dance despite being way more experienced in the latter is really commendable. I love Im Youngmin so much 

 

His PD101 profiles says his training period is 1 year and 3 months, but tbh everyone's training length on their profile is kinda wonky because some people included time at past companies and some people didn't, it's just super messy. I'll make a thorough post about all the BNM kids and their history......one......day........hehe, sorry. But he has only been at BNM since October 2016 iirc, his older brother wrote a pretty detailed post about Youngmin's trainee history on Facebook back in late March-ish.

imma be delu and believe all bnm kids will make it to top 11. hahah 

please do, id ike to get to know them more , ill be waiting haha. quick question do you happen to know whos the other trainee is whos not in pd101( was he the same guy in mc gree music music vid w/ woojin, daehwi and donghyun)

[Chingyus]

I don't actually know that much! Just random tidbits I've pieced together from here and there, plus I'm bad at keeping track of receipts (looking for my screenshot of his brother's fb post but idk where it is boohoo). I will work on it though

 

But yeah, the fourth guy in the MC Gree music video is one that I'm eyeing! He was in some of the live stages of Dangerous with Woojin, second-from-the-left behind the sofa, I just need to take screenshots but I'm really lazy and should be working on irl stuff first (yet I'm still here, priorities lol). There's also the fifth guy who is in Rhymer's insta (we may or may not be calling him Loco guy in the group thread haha)...he is in live stages of Kanto's Lonely (on the left side of the stage most of the time). There's one more guy who performed at Brand New Year 2016 with Youngmin, Woojin, and Daehwi but I can't tell if it's Loco guy again or someone else entirely, although to be fair when I first watched those videos I had a hard time believing Youngmin was Youngmin too because the vibe he gave off was really different from his PD101 image.

lol i feel you  lool but dw got chu 

good eye LMAO and wait is the loco guy the one in the pictures with the 4 boys? like when they went to eat our and watch a movie i think? wooow i should really watch those live stages. ( i only know about the kanto stage ohp) and loool how so (im quite curious teheh)
