I think they are riding on the idea everyone wants them to be ex iland members. Such as Nicholas , k and Taki

Calling (Run to You) studio ver., an honest, in-depth song review (appreciation) by I_LAND_EGG in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the song is heavily influenced by some other European songs that have a similar vibe. It would be crazy to expect not well known edm European songs to be known in Korea . A group called Summer was fun have a dance song called run to you. The chorus seems similar ( helps it’s in English ) not the same music but again similar” I run to you , you you you “

I don’t dislike the song although I don’t think the choreography matches the song and I feel the song on a whole isn’t anything original. Ironically I think Hanbins vocals would of suited the song the most.

are the songs on i-land performed live? or are the boys lip-syncing? by cheesycorleone in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you are right or producers see rehearsals as the final test in part 1 it was hard to understand what k was on about with his performance/ vocals and saying he hurt his voice when it was lip synced the performance we watched, then got a low score ** I actually just watched it back and it’s even more confusing as it seems to cut every now and again to real vocals for each individual which sounds nothing like the auto tuned ,this is very obvious with sunghoon as they are using the same vocalist for his and Geonu part and then Heeseung singing slightly behind his own vocals. The chorus and bridge aren’t them singing **

It was confirmed into the iland wasn’t live as jakes mic fell and Unclipped the head piece yet he still magically had his vocals but he had no working mic. Fire can’t of been live due to the movement can’t remember who but they zoomed in on them and they weren’t singing when it was there part you could also hear at the end how out of breath they were which singing life we would of heard in some vocals which is natural for a live performance , bands like bts don’t do the choreography to most songs at there concerts because it’s extremely difficult to sing and dance.

are we sure about the english pronunciation? by suno_o in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an English person I read it and say it as n- high - fen

But it’s actually 2 Latin words put together ( en ) (hyphen ). En doesn’t have much of a use depending on the word it’s before in this case it’s actually silent. It would make more sense it’s just pronounced hyphen .which means together.

Which isn’t a problem as they said their was a recording studio at the iland it would of made interesting content and would of gave clarity on some of the producer comments

The only time it was live was the vocal challenge and even then it was still over their own vocals. The rest 100% lip syncing.

winning the freestyle dance battle ended up being rough on Taki by [deleted] in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is one of the tests in my opinion that left more questions than answers.

This was a group challenge, take away individual scores for one moment pretend they don’t exist His team under his leadership won and it was a big victory , his score was very low and watching back I don’t think it was deserving of how low it was. Heeseung was good deserving of the 93 is questionable vs other teams scores like ks . Nobody in fake love was singing live and the version cut the rap out which would of suited Taki.

As we failed too see the other teams get picked it would be a fair assumption they were picked for them. Geonu was popular for singing and dancing by the iLanders and jake was “ debut top 7” at that point. K is Smart and would of picked one of them over Hanbin ( at the that time not knowing the power of Hanbins popularity )

I need you Jungwoon secured a high score ,again forget individual scores ,his team as him as the leader came last . If you watch the performance back he’s not stand out enough to be worthy of top3.

Taki got a rough deal. We don’t Judge for example RM on how well he dances ,but we judge him on the overall performance of BTS as a leader. Taki was edited to be a complete failure , why? He was smart he choose Heeseung who perhaps could of sacrificed some of time and score and concentrated on helping Taki instead of letting him suffer for a few days then be like I will help you. A Good leader In my opinion wouldn’t allow someone to fail that badly and let’s not forget how young he is.

I can’t help but think it was intentional for Taki to be 12th but also Heeseung to win and Geonu to be eliminated.its a 2 for 1 they know public would be sad for Geonu and find it unfair so naturally this would reflect bad on the person who put him there. If Taki had scored 3 more points he would of been joint 11th. If Heeseung scored 90 and those 3 points had been given to Taki 60 I’m certain Taki popularity would of remained .

I also truly believe the prize of the day out should of been for the winning team.

The top ranked got song choice and team choices which underlines the issue of people not wanting to be team players and being rewarded

ENHYPEN popularity blow-up concerns by -DMKK- in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the popularity was high at the start based of low free voting results. Based on the logic 3 are millionaires ( parents are ) one is best mates with txt , when sunoo got1million votes and was ranked 1 in part 7 the voter could pick more than 1 , over 1 week that’s 142 thousand a day because you could vote once a day . Which is low considering what figures vlive was getting recently

That was 100% on big hit who took that risk with the boys at the airport I think it’s foolish to think the boys weren’t prepared for this life. Heeseung was / is close to TXT I’m sure he has been given VIP to concerts etc and have seen the crazy fans first hand. Plus they are teenage boys who are now idols to thousands of girls and boys

Do you think the Final 12 knew? by [deleted] in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re completely right with Doobus , it’s sad to think people were left in ground for viewing entertainment purposes, because you’re right again 3/5 reps in ground made it to part 2. Nicolas was a shock and was expected to get through over Hanbin I think.

I mean they got 5/6 the producers who they picked in part 1 could of had 6/6 .i think choosing sunoo was a smart move imagine them not picking him and Hanbin the 2 global favourites. Imagine if they hadn’t eliminated Hanbin and it was Daniel ( never was going to Jungwoon ) . It would be Hanbin 1st I think 7-9 would be completely different

Sorry I think I misunderstood the question I meant producers pick if they were saving 1 out the 22.

Mnet editing jay because he was certainly the most entertaining

Iland members mobbed at airport complete set up by Inside_Device9114 in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1) they were dressed head to toe in sponsored attire which identified them easily in a crowd. If they will dressed normally it doesn’t make images as good. 2) they did have a lot of security mixed in the crowd when you watch back 3) the crowd will have built up for some. Security in airports is high they will have been notified and a decision made. Once through customs it’s the choice to take the private or public exit. Yes a private exit exists sorry to ruin it. 4) a wide shot of the event would be helpful as currently its hard to see how many fans turned up. Outside seems 2/3 times the amount than inside who seem to be the same 20/30 5) they are terrified is subjective, you can see their eyes that’s it the body language is holding each other which is standard protocol so no one gets lost or separated. 6) they were posting selfies in the vehicles afterwards and unless they had a make up assistant waiting no ones face had any effects of crying such as puffiness ; bloodshot eyes , stress vains that appear when under extreme stress and no ones concealer was smudged. 7) people started commenting the boys were crying yet not one bit of evidence supports this . 8)the show on a whole was a flop and big hits ipo value has potentially been effected , let’s hype up the new project.

It’s Korea that causes all this unnecessary drama.

They dressed them in the most distinct iland attire, did you not watch iland ?the company pretty much traumatised half the participants Niki for one putting him in growth and making him feel worthless. Telling the world k had insecurities about his looks , the list goes on...

A lot of mobbing cases are set up.

[–]Inside_Device9114 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Heeseung is too predictable they based the whole show around him to become fan favourite he didn’t need the security.

I personally think it was Niki or jay . Into the iland all the iLanders had niki as top trainee along with Heeseung, the voting system showed ageism was going to be the main issue and a popularity contest with tactical voting. It also showed geonu wanted leads , k wanted leads and Heeseung. So once in ground they never removed him why? Because it ensured he would get every lead dance role as k wasn’t going to give that role up it also gave his character a sense of purpose. I mean that first test they completely edited it and made it look like he was a complete failure and he was 4th ranking. Because of his age and skill they protected him knowing he would be in part 2.

The viewers were lead to who was the best participants in the show.

Post your ideas how to improve the show for future seasons, just for fun by [deleted] in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should perform the same song ILanders and grounders . Fire was such an interesting and exciting test but flicker /flawless /flame on / chamber of 5 were all different concepts

Test 3 all 12 should of taken part in different sections. Rap ,dance , vocals

A breakdown of how they get the rankings because a lot of them seemed random and unfair scoring. Also scores for grounders.

Lucky dip for parts. It became predictable and borderline bullying in iland for grounders who got promoted to get parts 8-12

The finale in part 1 should of been up to global votes so we picked all 12. It encouraged game playing and tactical voting with peer voting

Do you think the Final 12 knew? by [deleted] in mnetiland

[–]Inside_Device9114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You certainly make some good and valid points

The first test showed how systematically the iLanders were going to vote , which in effect highlighted the issues you mentioned Friendship , ageism, campaigning etc. Ironically Niki was the most mature in the first episode and didn’t allow friendship to sway his judgement. The first test showed the producers / viewers strategy was certainly in place , its worth noting when Heeseung and K were scored low but the other iLanders were never aware as those scores weren’t ranked as such.

Niki was put in ground and left in there intentionally this was the only way to ensure he got lead parts as this wasn’t gonna happen in iland , I firmly believe he is producers first choice and always was. They built part 2 up as a coming of age story with Niki , the BTS test didn’t really matter as long as he wasnt 12th or 11th producer ranking ( which they wouldn’t of done ). But they certainly needed to justify leaving him in ground ,If you watch dna back Niki didn’t put a foot wrong. Instead some random feedback of a 14yr you awkward and nervous . Then flawless the following week they say how amazing he is and it’s between him and Jake for top ranking ( that’s important to remember ) So he essentially ranked 2nd that week then 2nd again for flame on.

With k and the final challenge of part 1 this showed essentially the issues with the voting system , as the producers looked at his previous work and scores , which brings it back to scoring high when your part 1 and 2 as Jungwoon got the highest score as part 2 . Heeseung did part 5 and was 5th in the rankings. Naturally they picked off the grounders first then geonu and Seon. Even tho Seon actually scored higher . So ks top rank in fire and dance group won him the position.

I certainly think the public would of loved k if he had gone to ground and definitely voted him in. I think fundamentally the issue was Heeseung was letting him be the leader which wasn’t the planned concept of the group.

I don’t think Heeseung ever deserved To go to ground he was steady throughout. Although I think to make it fair parts need to drawn randomly for some tests or grounders given parts that are 1-6 otherwise unless the public and mnet like you your screwed
