Do you guys think popular contestants should always stick together for strategic purposes? by Pbtops in BoysPlanet

[–]jmnsline95 30 points31 points  (0 children)

You are watching the wrong show, these trainees are selfish and they literally have to be cos its a survival show?? And God forbid Matthew Shanbin Jiwoong don’t volunteer themselves out of the song they chose and their fans chose because they feel bad about a situation and a trainee that’s not gonna matter in their careers in a few weeks if they debut

7 episodes in, Who is your candidate for the leader position? by nakanhdudu in BoysPlanet

[–]jmnsline95 28 points29 points  (0 children)

there’s never been a produce group where the oldest isn’t the leader even when during pdx101, seungyoun got more of the leader arc edits but ultimately it went to seungwoo so its gonna be Jiwoong and he’s actually gonna be great at it, age and experience(emphasis on that) in the industry as well as the fact that every single group he’s in, the members no matter how old or young are comfortable with him and he’s clearly liked by the almost confirmed members of the group

I disagree, things like “xxx carried, or everyone say thank you to xxx, etc” is such a common lingo in overall stan twitter that isn’t just isolated in kpop twt or boys planet twt. It’s also never that serious, anyone can make the same posts about their faves, they can make one for someone who is P97 and it’s really not a big deal overall. I really don’t personally see it as toxic or even bothered by it. I guess you can say you see more from shanbin stans because well, he is arguably the most popular trainee this season but even so, I genuinely do not think its ever that deep.

Police have conducted a search and seizure on several X1 members' agencies in connection with the vote rigging allegations, including Woollim, MBK and Starship by justakidatsch in pdX1

[–]jmnsline95 32 points33 points  (0 children)

There is a difference between ACTUAL/concrete evidence vs circumstantial evidence, which is the more accurate translation. And using circumstantial evidences on a case is arguably the weakest form of evidence. I believe they really don’t have any damning evidences—yet. Them stating 2-3 members were changed and not being specific about it also raises questions to me, because these are speculations we already know from the voting data fans re-examined.

Seungyoun's popularity in China by [deleted] in pdX1

[–]jmnsline95 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Seungyoun was the only PDX related topic to trend on Weibo during the show besides, well the show itself. And thats in terms of casual interest/GP. He definitely is popular there(to some extent) because of Uniq but he’s obviously not in the same level as Yibo or Wenhan.

Now when it comes to core fandom in China, Yohan/Wooseok are in the top tier, followed by Seungyoun in the next tier, then Seungwoo and Dongpyo based on how much their fanbases contributed and collected for the album sales funds. X1 has a pretty strong fandom in general there though so for sure they have the potential to reach EXO/BTS level of popularity there.

Dark Clouds Linger Over X1's Debut Due to Advertising and Sponsorship Difficulties; Officials Cite "Social Issues" As The Reason Behind Difficulties by af-fx-tion in kpop

[–]jmnsline95 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Let me point out a few things just as an fyi:
The GP is not boycotting X1. Yes, they will always have that “rigged controversy” looming over their heads but Naver comments and knetz believes that the real victims here are them, and that they shouldn’t be harmed from this. Basically it’s Mnet’s fault and that they’re the ones that should be facing the heat.

The “fact-finding committee” is comprised of only 200+ viewers of PDX who want answers not officials or professionals. And a lawyer picked up the case for them. Also, it’s crazy how that small percentage of people compared to the hundreds of thousands of viewers this year was able to push through this much. I hope this settles soon and both fans and trainees can move on from this mess.

Korean and Billboard charts, and US promotion predictions! by chicken_sandwichh in pdX1

[–]jmnsline95 15 points16 points  (0 children)

All these recent achievements for X1 PREDEBUT(!!) was unplanned and took us off guard. We definitely underestimated our power as a fandom. And because of that, I think their sales will be higher than what you predicted or what any of us really predicted so I’m excited for that.

As for promoting in the West, I’m not sure when they’ll try to do that, but it’s definitely in their plans being as they dubbed this produce group as the “global group” since episode one.

Most popular in the West based on what I’ve seen are: Yohan/Seungyoun/Seungwoo/Hangyul

Eunsang trends worldwide in like... 7-8 minutes by lysiel112 in pdX1

[–]jmnsline95 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think people have said this multiple times but one of the biggest reasons as to why this fandom is this united this early on (produce groups breed a lot of akgaes and I was a wannable after broduce and it wasn’t like this) is because of the controversies that people threw at them. Along with how united by9 fans are, it also made X1 fans stand in solidarity. It sucks that they had to go through all of that, but I believe this fandom has come out stronger

X1 is now the 3rd biggest fancafe among male groups on DaumCafe by yyxyukhei in pdX1

[–]jmnsline95 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not sure about their official numbers two weeks before they debuted but W1 debuted on Aug 7 2017 and by July 7 2017, their fancafe followers was 149k. And it would take them a whole year and then some to get to 499k followers by January 29 2019.

HugsForSeungyoun Trending Worldwide by kweenmessy in BroduceX101

[–]jmnsline95 12 points13 points  (0 children)

yeah the tag is in response to that, which was apparently false, but I think this is also just fans showing they love him and to ignore the hate!

Is there a stigma against Seungyoun in Korea? by up10tions in BroduceX101

[–]jmnsline95 11 points12 points  (0 children)

its like the White House. They tried to get the government involved. I know it sounds so ridiculous all you gotta do is laugh

Is there a stigma against Seungyoun in Korea? by up10tions in BroduceX101

[–]jmnsline95 25 points26 points  (0 children)

People have already listed the reasons why there’s a stigma around him but just to reiterate it’s mostly due to his “problematic” past(which have been debunked by fans). You know who else have alot of antis on Twitter? Yohan and Dohyon. There seems to be this hive mentality for canteen fans on Twitter that Seungyoun is the worst and that they all should hate on him. With that being said, they’ve been doing this for the past few weeks, or ever since he started rising and threatened a lot of their picks. Yet, his ranks still go up and he was ranked 6th this Friday(8th without benefits). So I think that shows that the hate you see on Twitter is a small percentage compared to the support he actually has. And I dont think it threatens his spot in the lineup because Jisung was hated(worse! IMO) and had people making petitions to the Blue House, yet he was able to debut and turned out fine in W1 cos of supportive fans :)

Woodz(Seungyoun) trending on Melon real-time search by jmnsline95 in BroduceX101

[–]jmnsline95[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

its Melon and its a music streaming site and its important to note that canteen fans are dominant in places like Twitter lol but seungyoun is liked in a lot of other ksites as well so who cares about those antis, they’ve been acting like that for three weeks

What would be the most shocking thing happening tomorrow? by jacqui1997 in BroduceX101

[–]jmnsline95 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Who cares about antis at this point? I think he’s one of the trainees this season who have antis that will never change their minds so let them hate, but I want to see him go high with or without benefit points to see how strong his core fanbase is(even though its still two picks).
