[+104] I'm pissed off. Why have a survival at all if the agency is just going to get to pick members they want in the end anyway? Just pick your lineup yourself and leave us alone~ I'll regret never getting to see Jungeun debut now. She never got into the debut lineup until the final #6 ㅋㅋㅋ I should've known nothing good could come out of the most boring a*s survival show from Hybe.
[+68] Wait, Jungeun is #6....... if it was all going to be up to the agency in the end, why did you let us fans vote for nothing?...
[+67] What was the point of any of this if the agency gets to pick four and votes only get to pick two? Why a survival? Isn't this basically just an open audition, then? How does someone who made it into the final four not get to debut? Hybe, eat sh*t
[+64] This pisses me off. If they had a debut lineup that they already wanted, then just debut them. Why the f*ck would you put everyone through a survival like this? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The girl that was #1 all the time but got #4 in the last vote doesn't get to debut because she's not an agency pick! The girl that was at the bottom rank but worked herself up to the center and got #6 in the end but doesn't get to debut either! Choi Jungeun has a better back story than Lee Wonhee ㅋㅋㅋ If Shi Hyuk's going to waste all oru time like this by having survivals when he already knows who he wants to debut, he better go spend that time on losing weight and taking care of the groups that he already has.
[+56] I live in the US and have seen reactions from American fans. They worked really hard to vote for Chanelle... All the TikTok fanpages are only talking about Chanelle too. This is a big miss on Hybe's part. Totally manipulated... R U Next's TikTok followers dropped from 320k to 260k after they eliminated Chanelle.
[+53] I don't know why you're all surprised, the show said in a notice from the start that they were going to pick who they wanted to ㅋㅋ what do you expect from a program produced by its own agency? It's a fake debut documentary in the guise of a survival.
[+53] Oh, man, Jungeunie
[+52] Jungeun-ah.... give us back our Jungeunie!!!!!!!!!! Give her back!!!!!!!!!!
[+44] Minjoo and Youngseo are popular members... but the rest... did Hybe want something like Twice or something? Because I'm not understanding what went down
[+42] Why did they waste our time with a survival? Just debut the lineup that you wanted from the start
[+41] Hybe, please just debut your groups all on your own from now on
[+39] Jungeun-ah........
[+32] Wow, it does seem like the members that everyone was drawn to right at the beginning are the ones that eventually end up debuting... like Youngseo, Wonhee...
[+25] So if the agency already had four that they were going to debut no matter what, then why not hold the survival without those four from the start? Or at least let us know that only one or two would be picked through public votes...? I just don't get why they started the show off saying all six would get to be picked by us ㅋㅋ
[+18] Jungeun-ah, please debut 🫶🥺😭
[+11] With idols, what the public wants is the most important factor. Why would you hold a survival show and then override the public's pick to be like "tada!! random agency pick!!" ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm laughing at how ridiculous that is
[+11] Wait, so from the start, it was always going to be four picked by the agency, two picked by the public?
[+8] I really don't like how they picked the members
[+7] Wait, so why did the agency get to pick who won from #3 and on?
[+5] Jimin-ah ㅠ.......
[+4] The sudden 'agency pick' seriously seems like a legal way to manipulate the results
[+4] How does it make sense that Jimin and Jiwoo don't get to debut?
