The Official EVERGLOW's China's Princess Wang Yiren Thread「Au Revoir」

[OrangeUnicorn]

I am in love with this girl. Yes I’m shallow AF, but let’s be honest, this is kpop. I think that Yiren has such good facial expressions that don’t feel awkward at all. IDK maybe I’m blind, but I thought that she did a wonderful job as center, and her voice was the most suited . She if def my bias.

 

 

Because of the mixed feelings and low ratings Produce 48 has received from the Korean public, I would not mind if she did not make it into the final 12. Please hear me out:

 

1. I would rather she not be in the final group if they receive a lot of backlash and I have a feeling (though I hope I’m wrong) the final group won’t be as popular as the previous produce groups. I just don’t want her to be stuck in a mediocre group for years according to the contract.

 

2. As an individual, she shines, but I feel that in a group of 12 girl’s she’d be over shadowed by those more popular than her (like Sakura, Wonyoung etc) this is no fault of her own, and I personally would only have eyes for her, but we all are aware that her number of fans are small compared to some of the other trainees.

 

3. I can totally see her in a different girl group where she would get a fresh start but with some public recognition. I think that she’d have space and enough room to breath and enjoy herself, instead of constantly painfully aware that she has to try extra hard to get people’s attentions ( which is why she wanted to be center in the first place - and it hurts to hear people call her center hungry).

 

4. But I can also see her going solo and branching into acting - I think she has the potential. Can you imagine how beautiful she’d be in a Chinese drama - esp. a historical drama! There’s a part of me that would feel more at ease if she focused on making a name in China. She already has Chinese fans from Produce, so she’s already got a launching pad. But most importantly, I don’t want her to get hate comments for her being Chinese - I think that’s the hardest thing about stanning a Chinese idol. Realistically, if she debuted in Korea, I am certain that her agency would send her to make money in China (even if she wanted to or not) we’ve seen this with Kyulkyung and

 

5. I simply want her to be happy, comfortable in her own skin, be accepted by the community, and thrive! The most important thing for me is that she has options to pursue any career she wishes!

 

 

Thank you to anyone who had the patience to read my entire monologue of thoughts

Agreed with many of the points you have made. She did well as center and was really confident in See You Again . In my opinion, I felt that the voters focused diverted their attention to sakura instead of the center based on the difference in votes. Its understable because sakura is one of the most popular contestant of produce 48 and receives a lot of hype from viewers. Merely a misfortunate event of overshadowing sighs.

 

Honestly If she doesn't make it to the final group, I wouldn't mind because it seems that they aren't focusing on her as much as they should be. She definitely have so much potential that she haven't showed yet ughh. Her visuals are seriously one of the best this season and I hope she can get many opportunities in China for CF or acting. Her fans in China are already really supportive of her as shown through the food truck support for her debut.  I also agree that she might get hate for promoting in China if she were to make it to the group. This happened with Kyulkyung when she came back from judging in China's produce. The fans refused to cheer for her when she was promoting in Pristin V and I felt honestly heartbroken. 

 

I have slight hope she won't get eliminated just yet and the voters can somehow save her from elimination

 

Yeah, for some reason I do have hope that she may make it. It’s very unclear what the rankings are since mnet was shady AF after episode 10 and only showed Hitomi at 13th, I would conclude that the current ranking is to mnet’s liking (given that the previous ranking they showed was a couple of days after episode 9 with many Japanese trainees ranked very high and Miho at #1 and wang yiren was at #26. Perhaps it looks a little something more like the pattern shown in previous episodes.

 

I checked on Naver and her video is 13th in terms of views for the individul focus concept performances but less likes in proportion to the other trainees’ likes. Take that as you will, but I’m definitely not hopeless.

I hope that Yiren doesn’t give up and that the support she’s received so far will encourage her to continue. I just can’t get over how beautiful and brave she is to put herself out there. A lot of the trainees I was rooting for didn’t make it :(. (But I was kinda surprised that minju made it because she seemed to have the same track record as Yiren in terms of their rankings. I’m not made, because I like her too).

 

What does everyone think of the Chinese voting scandals? Not that this is a surprise bc I hear this all the time, but I’m conflicted on how I feel about the issue. For anyone who doesn’t know, there was a post on Netizen Nation:

I would believe it and it may be the reason that Yiren had such a high ranking, but how does that explain her sudden drop? Did her Chinese voters just stop voting for her, especially over the past weeks? It just doesn’t make sense... I don’t know what to think...
