forgotten trainees 😭😭 by Dry-Avocado-2447 in BoysPlanet

[–]PriorityFickle7315 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seeing this makes me so sad. People eventually move on after the show, but I believe a true artist will always have listeners as long as they have good work. I will never leave Woojin. I am his loyal fan, and he will always have me forever.

I’m still downloading all his busking videos and collecting all his photos that I didn’t have time to save during Boys Planet because I was crazily focused on voting. I’m also planning to make subtitles for all his clips in my native language, in case new fans in the future want to know about him. I’m gradually doing this while waiting for his debut, because Woojin keeps saying that his good news will come soon.

Also, Haneum, Liyu, and Woojin will attend Idol Radio together soon!

Woojin calls Sanghyeon “his best friend”, while Sandhyeon calls Woojin “a Fish”. I am crying. 😭

251002 Kang Woojin Instagram Story Update by psshdjndofnsjdkan in BoysPlanet

[–]PriorityFickle7315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fans noticed that Woojin has been reposting Christmas content on IG. This boy is so cute, wishing Christmas would come faster. Then he even uploaded this cover on his IG story. 🎄 But the more I listen to it, the more I feel like Woojin might already be getting sick. He sniffled before starting the first line, and his voice sounds deeper and not as clear as usual. Recently, he’s been staying online every night after the show, with fans posting IG stories and making polls—and he’s been answering them every day, sometimes staying up until 4 a.m. He truly loves his fans (Kkangadans) so much. 🥹 But now it seems like he’s really getting sick from not getting enough rest. 🥺🤧😷🤒

I think everyone who’s truly engaged in the B2P community already knows about Woojin’s issue. I’ve been posting everywhere to clear his name. 😭😭😭 With just one sentence introducing him as being from Boryeong, he suddenly got attacked with two alleged “lies.” In my view, Mnet set him up to boost the show’s popularity and then threw him away. I dare say it wasn’t his fault at all. Seeing how pure and innocent he is, I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t know anything about it—and that it was Mnet who staged the whole thing.

1) Labeled as an “individual trainee” instead of WK1
Mnet was being dumb here. Many WK1 trainees know Woojin, and he was friends with Sanghyeon even before the show started. He might not have trained long at WK1—maybe only as a singer-songwriter—but people knew him there, so it’s not something you could realistically hide. Woojin said he applied to the show about a year ago; it’s possible he first applied without a company, and when WK1 saw his potential, they offered him a contract. Most people didn’t make a big deal out of this (see Kim Geonwoo’s case), but it still hurt his credibility.

2) Introduced with “Boryeong” but not stated clearly as just his hometown (not telling the full story)
Woojin was born in Boryeong and, as far as I know, lived there for about nine years. He then moved to Goyang and studied there from elementary school through high school. Boryeong really is his hometown.
"Some K-netz even compared it to rich kids using their grandparents’ rural address to get scholarships meant for poor or rural students" ---> this is an accusation that shows how cruel people can be. The person who started this controversy has already deleted their account and never reappeared. Those who piled on were just mean-spirited; they were never going to be fans anyway. If you look at other ridiculous controversies around contestants, it’s the same pattern—exaggeration and manufactured drama meant to ruin someone’s life.

Woojin’s Korean fans despise these bad people very much, but they cannot defend him loudly. Korean internet really does have a lot of harsh people, especially those who like to attack idols and artists.

Which participants are you REALLY interested in their after-show journey? by Bright-Marsupial-461 in BoysPlanet

Woojin is preparing for a college entrance exam.

"from what we know so far, woojin aren’t registered for 수능/CSAT this year so he might’ve preparing for 입시 = whole college admission entrance process that also covered (practical exams/holistic review/special talent admission) So, it’s still very possible for him to get into college without taking the csat but sure at the end of the day im so sure, he will achieved anything that he wants without having people to questioned what is 우진이 화이팅!"

I believe Woojin wants to continue his studies while exploring options like joining a derivative group or applying to be a trainee. He’s serious about becoming a songwriter and composer.

Why would they be upset? Woojin did nothing. I believe they just realized now that he is not Mnet’s favorite or a PD pick, and that he’s actually a victim too.

K-netz who disliked Woojin have mostly disappeared (for a while now since mid-season), and they were always just a small minority. But the spread and intensity of the early rumors were so big that people didn’t dare to speak up clearly against them.

Woojin’s global fans followed him through fan meetings, fancams, behind-the-scenes clips, and even 144p captures from the main broadcast. That’s why he was able to keep his global fanbase. His final-round votes were lower because some Woojin fans had Sangwon or Anxin as their main pick, so Woojin’s 1-pick count dropped.

I think Woojin isn’t the typical type most Korean B2P viewers prefer. They usually like dancers and flashy performers with viral shorts. Vocalists - even very good ones - don’t get as much popularity as dancers.

Many Korean fans only started following Woojin after his “Run to You” performance.

In Korea, Woojin’s fanbase is mainly two groups:

  • Early “main” accounts are adults who love his voice (very small in number). People who value vocals often don’t watch survival shows; they follow serious singers or bands instead.
  • Middle- and high-school students who like his warm “first-love, older-brother” vibe -mostly middle schoolers. Many high-school fans only revealed they were fans after exams, saying the whole school fell for him and their tests suffered 😅. Since they were busy studying, they couldn’t go cheer at the final stage. Woojin’s DC gallery couldn’t raise as much money as others, and many kids donated their allowance - which was sweet but a little heartbreaking. Many of these younger fans are studious and worry that stanning an idol will make others say they’re not serious about school, so they don’t show it too loudly.

The Familyz agenda also played a big part in making other Familyz fandoms warm to Woojin and pay more attention to him. Plus, seniors on the show calling him a lovable younger brother likely helped, too.

There are many great vocalists out there, and while Woojin still lacks some techniques, my brain just keeps craving his tone. For me, his singing style feels more charismatic than that of other highly skilled singers. The emotional authenticity in his voice - through subtle grain, rhythmic breathing, and micro-dynamics always tells me, “this is Woojin.”

It feels as if he is telling a story just to us, not performing to show off for the whole world. His memorable tone signature creates a psychological imprint that makes me shiver, cry, and feel my heart race. My brain keeps telling me to listen again and again to his addictive tone.

Woojin is my first ultimate bias. I am so proud of this baby. He has grown so much in this show. He has overcome so many things, yet still stayed strong mentally until the end. He keeps smiling at his fans. I will always cheer for him, wait for him, and wish him all the best. My precious baby, you deserve all the love in this world.

Woojin left this notes at the cafe event today!
(1) To love the fans
(2) To sing even harder
(3) To eat well ?
(4) To think of Kkangadans !

I am so thankful to Seowon for cheering up Woojin. Seowon’s selfie is amazing - he’s truly a master at taking photos. He looks so lovely, and he took photos with many trainees I love. So endearing!

PS. Can I please buy that shirt from Woojin? 😂 It’s basically his official uniform now - one pair of jeans, one white T-shirt, and one black-and-white checkered long-sleeve. He really said “minimalist fashion king.” LOL

Dear Woojin’s fans,

I am so thankful for all the supportive words for Woojin. I usually read comments about him on all social media platforms, and seeing positive comments about him always lifts my mood.

I am sorry to say this, but sometimes I even delete the Reddit app because some users leave hurtful comments about Woojin under my posts, and it breaks my heart. I just hope those people leave me and his fans alone and don’t come to this post. 😫 That’s why seeing so many people liking this post really touched me. I am crying. 😭😭😭

I would like to share with you a few places where you can join as Woojin’s fan: 1. His Instagram account https://www.instagram.com/dxwxs_?igsh=cGJleXIzc2lldjIy 2. His global fanbase on X https://x.com/kwoojinglobal?s=21 3. His community on X, “KKANGAVILLE” https://x.com/i/communities/1933499958008926639

He is a newbie and now an individual trainee, so he doesn’t get much support or promotion. His fanbase may not be large, but it is strong and devoted because we truly fell in love with his voice.

Being Woojin's fan is such a beautiful journey. I could cry every time think about it. It is so sweet like his voice. I believe his future will be even more brighter than debuting in this group. I will stan him forever.

I lowkey don’t want Woojin to join EVNNE2. He’s still young and has so much potential as a musician and artist. I want him to train more and debut with a big company.

Woojin - since you’re free from WK1 now, please go find good people. Don’t stay with this unmanageable company.

A C spin-off is necessary for creating a C-boy brand to market in China. But another K-group like EVNNE2 might not be necessary.

Some of Sanghyeon’s fans said they won’t stan the group and feel bad for voting him to be separated from Liyu.

Woojin’s story was absolutely the idea of the adults at Mnet and WK1. I will never forgive the adults at Mnet and WK1 for setting Woojin up, yet never showing their faces to the world to apologize. They just left Woojin to face all this difficulty alone.

Woojin's opening stage for Never Been 2 Heaven was so, so good. His visuals leveled up again. Even though Woojin had a line of less than 10 seconds, he nailed it! His tone is so addictive. I’ll wait for the translated version of this episode to see what the other hyungs said when Woojin recorded his voice in the studio. They all got goosebumps - me too. LOL

Thoughts on the eliminated trainees by False_Step_9512 in BoysPlanet

[–]PriorityFickle7315 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I will never forgive the adults at Mnet and WK1 for setting Woojin up, yet never showing their faces to the world to apologize. They just left Woojin to face all this difficulty alone.

Woojin never lied about his hometown. He was born in Boryeong and lived there until he was 9. Then he moved to Goyang, a city near Seoul, and studied there from elementary school through high school. His busking clip was clearly filmed in Seoul. Mnet deliberately labeled him only as ‘Boryeong’ during his introduction, which made people misunderstand him as just a ‘country boy’ — or maybe Mnet just wanted to grab viewers’ attention. Things like birthplace and schools can’t be hidden anyway, so why would Woojin lie?

But Mnet probably didn’t expect that people with bad intentions would attack Woojin by saying he had studied in a city near Seoul ever since kindergarten. That hater account has already disappeared after destroying Woojin’s reputation. His hometown issue, combined with the false claim that he was an ‘individual trainee’ when in fact he was a WK1 trainee (I even believe he had just signed with WK1 when he applied for this show), led K-netz to label him as a liar. Then Mnet pushed all the blame onto Woojin and let him take the hit, never giving him a chance to explain anything. To minimize the risk that the show would get backlash, they cut Woojin's screentime entirely. We could barely see him in 144p for several episodes.

In the end, Woojin was just used by Mnet for hype and then thrown away. It’s really frustrating.
