Cockroach comment?
Yeah I think that's one of the reasons I fell out with the 4th season as well. They really need to fix that screen time thing before everyone gets tired of it
Remember this post
the last one!
Did you see the ending fairies for tomorrow's preview? It'd be funny if this became the line-up because it's.. bit.. suspicious. LOL.
Plus people say Hangyul is evil edited and that's why he can't make it but that means nothing. And doesn't MNET really want Tony?
There's no main vocal though, not even single one, if this is the line-up they push for. Weird.
Hmm, trying to understand Korean's taste is something that would be pretty difficult I would say, lol. I too agree that Hyunbin is the best looking Starship trainee and might be the second most 'talented'(i.e ready) out of the 4 but he was given the center position for Blood Sweat and Tears and honestly, he bombed it. I had him as my second favourite Starship trainee prior to that but I absolutely thought he wasted the position and Yunsol would have done ten times better the job.
I was so disappointed I couldn't even finish watching the whole performance due to how bland the whole performance felt. I definitely saw the importance of center position after that stage.
I would like to think that I have similar preferences to Korean netizens so I think the main attractive-ness that appeals to them(and myself) is the star factor, where they compel your attention to them. Visuals would be second after the star factor so Hyunbin imo loses out in the compelling segment, where he doesn't stand out? Even with his visuals which would have easily propelled him into higher rankings but yeah. :\
Sorry if this offended some people but it is my honest take as a viewer who came into this show unbiased without seeing ANY pre-show photos or know about any trainees including the debuted ones.
Till now, I absolutely understand all the rankings besides BaekJin and Seungyoun but the latter's definitely rising a lot after the reset so I'm glad the Koreans' taste so far aligns with mine. I too, might want to change some of the rankings for my own preferences in having a more solid and ready to debut team but I am sure some of the people will drop and rise so this is the fun of the whole show to me. :)
I don't trust Koreans because when I stanned Daniel since I first saw him in Pick Me video, Koreans were trashing us international fans for even supporting him, that apparently we have an eye cancer, lol (look at the link I posted above) and then they suddenly became his fans, those 33 people who voted for him during Sorry Sorry, were only ones to recognise him.
About Hyunbin, I went back to look at his fancam and I can agree he doesn't look very charismatic and has stiff movements, but the thing that bothers me is that he shows no emotions? Honestly, the whole team isn't good in general (even if the guy you mentioned had been centre), and I don't know if it's because they don't fit together or something else, so I want to give him benefit of doubt because if he was a bad dancer/singer, he wouldn't have got A in re-evaluation. If he can start to love the camera, I think he'd look a lot better, because right now he looks like he's bothered by it.
And to be honest.. there's barely anyone with star factor this season. Unless someone goes viral for their fanam, I think the one that comes closest is Seungyeon for me in Love Shot team, but the guy's already debuted idol and an all-arounder so he knows how to work the stage. Even my own picks get barely any screentime and it's not even up to MNET to assume who has star power because they don't know themselves seeing who they push. :/
