    Hi, finally decided to leave the lurker mode and join S48. IZ*ONEis one of my favorite groups and i'very been following them since PD48. Nice to meet you all.

    About the issue of the rigged votes in Produce seasons, I think that (only for PD48) the amount of votes were inflated and maybe Mnet put some members above others but among the top 12 contestants, for example: Yuri getting her votes inflated so she could rank 3rd but being originally 12th, a position inside the debut line up.
    I don't think at all that Mnet rigged the votes to take out a contestant from the top to place another in it.
    I do think Mnet should release the top 11/12 from the final of every season before the rigging and mid-reveals.
    Actually Yuri was in top 12 before, in ep 1 and in the 2nd elimination, and in both casession she was 10th, I think that even if she her votes were rigged she was still in top12. About Chaeyeon being 12th, remember there was a mid-reveal which made Hitomi and Chaewon to be in higher positions, meaning that Chaeyeon was 10th before the reveal.

    ^Can you guys please talk about the rigged votes business on the PRODUCE 48 thread?

    They have their first full scale concert in Japan so it's a pretty big deal. The merch line at Makuhari was insanely long for a Wednesday afternoon.

    If you think about it, everyone there is essentially skipping classes or taking time off work to be there lol

    Also, the food items at Makuhari looks pretty neat.

    I think everyone had the same amount of time to perform -- Izone performed more songs (4.5) and so they had less talk time. And yes they were definitely the most popular girl group and their tickets were indeed more expensive than other groups except for stray kids and ateez. I know because I had to buy hi-touch, several audience and red carpet tickets. You also couldn't swap for an Izone hi-Touch unless you had ateez or stray kids.

    And I agree with whoever posted that they are indeed far more beautiful up close and in person than they are in pictures, videos, or tv. And I didn't think that was possible. Especially the visual members, they're very very pretty.


    PS: Re the recent posts, Mnet could have booked flights for all top 20 girls and paid the travel insurance which allows them to refund in full the 8 tickets that would not have been used. Especially if they had to meet with the japanese management at a certain day.
    PPSS: And it was nice meeting marioworld (who was at the right place at the right time last Saturday)

    Looks yum. But its 3000 yen for the whole set ! (that's like AUD 41. I can have a decent sized premium cut steak for that !)

    I think yuihan watched on one of the days. I wonder who else did.
    I also hope we get a dvd/bly-ray release now that the concert tour for Eyes on Me is over. Not sure how it works in kpop.

    They still have 3 concerts left though...
    According to twitter reports, Asai Nanami, Hori Miona and Miyazato Rira (Team 8) were there... apparently Aki-P was also sighted

    I really was expecting more songs from their Japanese singles, but since their fandom is basically composed of kpop fans I guess it makes sense.

    Aki-p keeping an eye on Yena. He was fished by her soda gag. I predict she's a candidate for team k or an all new girl group.

    I only know that Tohoshiki releases their Japan Concert DVD regularly (not sure about other K-idol groups), so there's chance that OTR/AKS will release DVD of IZ*ONE's Japan Tour.

    Highly doubt there will be covers of any sort, either kpop or 48G... they haven't done a single cover during all stops of the tour so far (none at either KCON except for the song Yuri and Chaewon covered) so I don't know why it would change now... Plus they have enough of a discography that they don't really need to do covers.

    But didn't they perform Heavy Rotation in a concert? I'm pretty sure that happened.

    Well, I was talking in general, and I don't think there will be a change in set list either. Maybe next tour we might see some covers.
