TV / Radio Produce 48 (2018/06/15 - 2018/08/31)

A downside to this, how some netizens will try and find something "problematic" about an idol. If they've done something wrong in the past then they're hated(sometimes for not even doing anything at all*Red Velvet's Yeri comes to mind or BP's Jenny* or it's not even true but people still believe it *cough*nct's taeyong) and if they do something even slightly bad after debut then they're also hated. Sometimes people bash one idol while protecting another idol who has possibly done worse. Best thing to do is stop anyone who is spreading the false information in a nice manner and just come up with the facts.

 

It's just those people really like to bitching to literally EVERYTHING.

No-lifes detected.
Or maybe they made money from that.

 

lmao @ k-netz trying to rehash sakura 'personality controversy' that no one cares about.. embarrassing the depths of hatred they will go just because she's Japanese

anyway i'm glad my girl is centre, didn't want her to join but since she is, have to make the most of it. weekly content, fansites..

 

Is true that final group will be signed for 2 years and 6 months because they will gain more global attention? I hope the girls can get a better promotion than IOI and Wannaone

 

Yes the contract duration is true.
Other détails such as final group composition, contestant list are still not confirmed.

 

Yeah the contract is for 2.5y, don't know if it's bad or good. IOI and Wannaone gained their massive popularity because the time limit so fans tried very hard to support them.

 

I'm a long time K-pop fan since 2009, so I like to say Korean netizens are people just hard to live without bashing other people, especially K-pop artists are the examples, just like "No bash, no life".

 

Since we are recommending trustworthy kpop websites I'd like to recommend Asian Junkie, they act like trolls most of the times & neverhide the fact that they don't like YG artists but whenever it comes to serious issues they are the most neutral ones:

For those who don't know any of those songs:

Never

Your usual public friendly summer Kpop song~ Not very memorable but doesn't mean that it's bad

Energetic

Personally I didn't like it at first but it's true that it's quite addictive especially the "Make me feel so high, I'm so crazy !"

I guess we'll get something closer to It's Me than Pick Me, which is great because I really hate Pick Me even if I can't stop myself from singing & dancing to it whenever it starts playing

 

Only Flowblow and no Hui? I guess they dont want Hui since Pentagon not a successful group.

 

Nah, they aren’t bashed just because they’re Japanese, at least not entirely. To simply put, almost all K-Netz are crazy! They bash everyone and pick out each insecurities. They’ll dig up their past and private life until they find something.

Ya’ll should get ready, welcome to Kpop.

 

Members are already out.

@ForrestFuller
I noticed you haven't updated the 1st post to include the other coaches, and MC yet?

 

I believe Lee Seunggi is fluent in Japanese.

 

Anybody know if this will air in Japan and under which station?

 

It'll probably on Mnet's Japanese cable channel. They're available under various cable providers all listed here.

 

I just realised, in Jurina's recent crying SR she was wearing a yellowish jumper. Presumably she filmed it in dorms (she mentioned she had to go grab breakfast soon).

Yellow jumper was used for C ranks in previous season, so J would be in C rank after re-evaluations

this would be a major blow for J, especially if Sakura got Center (meaning Sakura would have gotten the highest grade after re-evaluations)

 

well, if Produce 48 were a Stage 48 post, I would not give it a creative rating

 

on Season 1 C had blue sweaters and B had Yellow sweaters

 

Yeah I did a double check (forgot boys had different colours) and it definitely looks like a season 1 B sweater

I bet the producers are going for a "fail and first and redeem herself" story for Jurina.
