1. [+403, -9] Despite Jun Jiyoon being the main vocalist, she raps better than Hyuna... ㅋㅋ Similar situation to SISTAR ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+249, -19] Isn't it obvious that the idols who are going on this show know that they're going to get hate but they'd rather get headlines anyway? Look at Jimin, she got tons of hate at first but her public recognition shot up ㅋㅋㅋ entertainment agencies aren't idiots, they all know exactly what they're doing

3. [+203, -8] Sigh, is this an idol spin-off of the show?

4. [+18, -1] It'd be interesting to see a vocal & rap battle between Jiyoon vs Hyorin

5. [+17, -1] Despite Hyuna being the group's rapper, Jiyoon is the better rapper...

6. [+14, -2] Jiyoon's good at rapping... one of the few idols who can both sing and rap
