Produce X 101- Second Elimination

Ok, episode 8, another elimination, but it was also mixed with the first part of the Concept Evaluation, which I will put in the Concept Evaluation post that combines all the Concept Evaluation parts. It was a nice distraction from the eliminations until they showed everyone crying having their last lessons, which honestly broke my heart because I don't want anyone to go home. For the entrances, my favorite was definitely Peak's. Other honorable mentions are Cho Seung Youn, Jeon Jae Han's and Woo Je Won's, and Park Sun Ho's.

I was honestly a bit surprised by the rankings there were a some people that rose drastically like Lee Hyeop and some that dropped like Kim Min Kyu. I'm honestly so happy for those that rose up the ranks because they really deserve it, but it was really sad seeing some people's rank drop. The top 11 for this episode were:

1. Kim Woo Seok
2. Lee Jin Hyuk
3. Kim Yo Han
4. Song Hyung Jun
5. Koo Jung Mo
6. Lee Eun Sang
7. Nam Do Hyun
8. Lee Jin Woo
9. Han Seung Woo
10. Kim Min Kyu
11. Son Dong Pyo

I was shocked by how much turnover there was from Episode 5. I was really surprised to see how much Lee Jin Hyuk rose. It was kinda funny to see TOP Media's Kim Woo Seok and Lee Jin Hyuk compete for first place. Honestly, the top 11 seemed pretty well rounded and wouldn't be terribly upset if that was the lineup. However, my top 11 are

1. Cho Seung Youn (Of course)
2. Park Sun Ho
3. Lee Hangyul
4. Han Seung Woo
5. Kim Kook Heon
6. Baek Jin
7. Kim Yo Han
8. Kim Si Hun
9. Song Yu Vin
10. Kim Dong Bin
11. Lee Jin Hyuk

The twist added in the end was surprising. I was honestly really happy that the eliminated trainees had another chance to stay on the show. I really wanted a lot of the guys to come back, because a lot of really talented guys were eliminated. I was really surprised to see Baek Jin, Kim Dong Bin, and Mi Dam eliminated because they seemed quite popular and are clearly talented. I was also surprised to see Won Hyuk did not make it either because he received 2 benefits by getting first place for the Rap Position. I really liked the clips that was shown for the trainee's videos because it was clear that they all really improved and are very talented.

It was really sad to see 30 trainees eliminated. I truly hope that all 101 trainees find success. I don't know what to expect from the next elimination, but I am looking forward to it. I am also super excited to see who comes back after the X Consolation. So... Um... Yeah...

Produce X 101- Final Ranking

So, I was actually able to watch the entire finale. I'm still going to hold off on writing anything about the actual show portion of this episode until english subtitles are released. That being said the group name is X1. It's sweet and simple and basically sums up the premise of this season. Now onto the rankings. My current top 11 are: 1. Cho Seung Youn 2. Lee Han Gyul 3. Han Seung Woo 4. Keum Dong Hyun 5. Hwang Yun Seong 6. Kim Yo Han 7. Song Yu Vin 8. Song Hyung Jun 9. Son Dong Pyo 10. Nam Do Hyun 11. Lee Jin Hyuk I know I already changed my list from literally yesterday. I honestly happy with whatever the final ranking is as long as Cho Seung Youn and Han Seung Woo get in. If Lee Han Gyul get in, that's an extra bonus. I truly wish that all of the guys could debut in X1, which obviously is not going to happen. Anyway, onto the official rankings. 1. Kim Yo Han When they told us 1st place was down to Kim Woo Seok or Kim Yo Han, I was not surprised. I th...

LOONA- Why Not?

 I know this came out like a week ago, so I am a little late on this. However, I have been listening to this song a lot and watching a lot of stages for it as well as the music video and every time I watch one I just have more opinions. I feel like when it comes to Loona, I spend so much time talking about line distribution. That's mainly because line distribution is shit and its basically Heejin and her back ups, which is just really distracting. I understand that Heejin is a talented performer, but so are the other girls, and they deserve some screentime and lines too. That being said, despite Heejin's overwhelming amount of lines, I declare Why Not? Vivi's era because I am so psyched that she actually got lines, screen time, and a center position. Bless the kpop gods because I've been waiting for Vivi to got some recognition. The music video itself I don't really have anything to talk about, besides appreciation for Hyunjin getting some extra screen time because ...

NCT Dream- Chewing Gum

Ok, so, another sub group of NCT, NCT Dream, came out Chewing Gum. This might be favorite single that NCT came out with. It's so bright, fun, and cute. Every time I see the video I break out into a smile. The story is pretty lighthearted, and it's very entertaining to watch. I absolutely love the bright colors that they use throughout the video. It really adds to the group's cute and bright theme. I found the video quite interesting to watch. They had a variety of different sets, including the ones made by the computer, and all of them were of bright colors. I also enjoyed the electronic made backgrounds for when the members had the closeups. Each person had a different animated background, so it was interesting to see what was behind them. I also kind of funny that they were using those hoverboard-thingies. (I have no idea what they're called, but I think it's a hoverboard?) The song is quite catchy, and I could probably listen to it over and over again for hou...
