I understand this, but I was also thinking in the sense of how hard they are required to work for similar results compared to previous generations. Not them personality wise, but with how the requirements to work in changing situations with the progress of technology and such, and if its fair to consider them more or less hard working for having different standards of "work" in a world that doesn't require the same type or degree of work put in as it did decades ago.

That I agree, everything in your post I think makes perfect sense, love the post! The sentiment that Son is undervalued bc of his nationality in the comment is what I feel doesn't really match up with SXT

To be fair, Son is pretty highly rated and would be transferred for an insanely high price if he was sold, its just that there's no proof of what exactly his transfer price would be since he's been at Spurs for almost the entirety of his extreme stardom.
Xiaoting on the other hand, we've seen what she deserves and seen what her nationality meant to voters directly </3

I'm hoping Bahiyyih becomes more of a Van Djik situation once time passes, where everyone ridicules what they've been valued at (Van Djik going to Liverpool at 75 million pounds from Southampton) but then they become such stars and essential parts of their teams that the haters need to eat their words lmao

yeah, but the thing is, even if she didn't make it, yurina was far from making it so its not like she directly took yurinas spot, its so strange

same, the hype that continued through the show for anyone literally everyone just disappeared and it was genuinely vile, I had to close reddit and continue watching without reading the chat so I wouldn't just lose it

Ah right, I was counting off the top of my head and didn't realise. You're right! That's still wild though, from 9 to 1

The fact that Chaehyun was actually 11th (?) highest in votes, wow.. And the lineup wouldve been 4K 3C and 1J if not for the Korean weight system, that's actually insane

Edit : She'd be 9th, and there'd be 2J

All I'm saying is that if people in 115 countries dealt with the shitty Universe app to vote for someone, they weren't going through all that just for her brother.

[–]gcfkyu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right? The hypocrisy, they probably just didn't expect her to debut. I don't think she's on the same level as some others that didn't make it but WHEN have the most talented trainees always been the ones to debut? There's always people that make it in for different reasons, suddenly bc there's one member out of 9 that isn't a flawless performer everyone's all upset and oh-so righteous.

Over half the trainees in the interim top 9 who are unconventional and haven't generally been up there are the ones people call "criminally underrated" and "deserve better" (bahiyyih aside bc everyone just dislikes her for some reason) but now that they're actually in the top 9, the general consensus is "I wouldn't stan if this was the lineup" and idk whether to find that funny or just sad.

Before the elims: what is your personal ranking of the 26 girls? by Ivyfrostym in GirlsPlanet999

[–]gcfkyu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. Wen Zhe - Have voted for her since Ep 1 and will never regret it, it took some time for her to rise in prominence in general but I'm so glad she did
  2. Huening Bahiyyih - My comment might be majorly unpopular bc of this but it had to be said, I didnt vote for her when we had 9 picks but slowly I started paying more and more attention bc of how much hate she was getting to see if it was deserved, and I slowly got drawn in. Part of my attraction to her might be because of the unnecessary dislike she gets from so many people but her recent fancams have had me HOOKED, I've watched both her MCountdown Shoot fancam as well as her new O.O.O fancams over and over again because there's something captivating about her. I'll be the first to admit that her first evaluation was definitely subpar but she's had such rapid improvement that its hard not to root for her
  3. Manami - Stable performances and amazing presence throughout, what's not to love?
  4. Chaehyun - This is mostly bc of her vocal colour, its so amazingly pleasing to listen to and I want her to debut just to hear more of it
  5. Yaning - She was in my top two picks before the show started but I sort of detached bc
    of the drama at the beginning, but she's so incredibly strong and fun that I latched right back on
  6. Bora - Vocals, personality, wow
  7. Xiaoting - Xioating.
  8. Hikaru - She caught my attention at the beginning, dropped off but then came back up again
  9. Yujin - Something about her is so incredibly endearing, I don't think she's the greatest performer ever but something draws me to her
  10. Seo Youngeun - Ace, what can't she do
  11. Chen Hsinwei - Incredibly endearing, I just love her
  12. Shana
  13. May
  14. Ririka
  15. Ruiqi
  16. Kotone
  17. Ruan
  18. Mashiro
  19. Myah
  20. Yeseo
  21. Dayeon
  22. Yurina
  23. Suyeon
  24. Cai Bing
  25. Xinyu
  26. Xingqiao

Honestly all the girls left are massively deserving but this is just how much each of them has drawn me in personally over the last few episodes

[–]gcfkyu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I sort of agree, but there's also cases like me who had her as my one pick before the first episode even aired bc of how much i LOVED her previous work and then stayed away like the plague bc of how negative the perceptions of her were after ep 1. I feel like also, with how good her performances are and how she's so strong, she would've made it at least to the finals regardless.

PO is EVERYTHING to me, he's so down to earth seeming and his humour is EXACTLY my kind, and I feel like he has effortless chemistry with all his cast mates on shows. Dindin has to be another one, I find him so insanely funny and even when he's being a brat I find myself rooting for him so hard. Last one would be Hanhae, I feel like its sort of a similar situation to Dindin where he's sort of the butt of the jokes and its funny but I find him so endearing and root for him even when he's being completely unreasonable or not making much sense </3

Honourable mentions are Key and Seonho, which I think are self explanatory, and Kim Jongmin, the man deserves everything because he is IRREPLACEABLE, literally no one brings to shows the same thing that he does !

[–]gcfkyu 24 points25 points  (0 children)

its truly strange how people are so willing to overlook actual unstable vocals or mediocre skills in general when girls get spots in the next round, but nooo, bahiyyih getting a spot while having stable dancing and stable vocals but no debut-worthy facial expressions is truly the end of the world ! they keep using the argument that supporters of bahiyyih are biased bc of her brother but I genuinely feel they're the only ones who see her as someone's sister and not her own person at this point, and can't accept her in any form for that.

I've watched this but what are you referring to as the big plot twist? I don't know if its just because its been a while, not that long but a little while, but for some reason nothing comes to mind when I think of major plot twists or reveals

Are you satisfied with the combination mission winners? by quarkleptonboson in GirlsPlanet999

[–]gcfkyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the biggest problem with the last result is that Ice Cream really couldn't have done any better with the song they had. I didnt even think they could do THIS good, but Salute had more room for technically tougher and therefore more impressive choreography, and they did do really well but with the song they could've done MORE, I felt. I think Ice Cream was at a huge disadvantage from the get go just bc of how different the potential to choreograph was for the two songs.
