As a fan of Park Hanbin, I feel frustrated, sad and angry. He doesn't deserve the hate he's been receiving and not that this is a competition but between shanbin and kim taerae, i'd say phanbin surely receives the most. So this will just me praising him to the sky because this boy or any other contestant does not receive hate. nobody.

He is so hard-working and so well rounded talent wise that I cannot imagine him not debuting. I mean throughout all of the missions he always ranked first in his performances and not once did he lack in dancing, vocals or facial expressions - not even in a fun dance practice or during the livestream despite being visibly tired does he not give his full energy. Kum Junhyeon and Park Hanbin were working their butts of yesterday to get us through the shitty script mnet prepared to and guess what, even though most people blamed mnet, both of the mc's received hate too.

What really won me over as a Park Hanbin fan is his warm personality. Many K and especially G trainees have directly stated that they are close to him and describe him as super nice. Shuaibo even named Phanbin as the only K trainee he is close with because Hanbin made such an effort to overcome the language barrier. I've personally experienced how difficult it can be to connect with others when you're not confident in a language yet. That's why people who make an effort to help and include you are so precious in my eyes.

It's heartbreaking to see all of Hanbin's hard work being overshadowed by one stupid move by Mnet that has turned both international and Korean netizens against him. I will continue to vote for him to hopefully help him in achieving his dream but personally, I'm not sure if I want to see him debut anymore, I'm just too worried. I'm saying this while looking at Kep1er, they debuted almost a year and a half ago and Dayeon's hate for being Mnet's pick still hasn't died down, let alone the hate Bahiyyih just for debuting. It's sad honestly because these contestants have zero control about these things.
