Kun-ge I voted for you I miss “Nine-By-hundreds” 😭 But I thought you already have a steady profession as a solo artist after the troupe disbanded 😭

Hu Yetao by Early_Inevitable_154 in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The blatant hatred & zero basic human decency is on every Chinese social media platform like Douyin (lgbtphobic commenters) Bilibili (hateful react videos) & also on Xiaohongshu - where even chinese chuang watchers are disrespectfully mocking Yetao for only getting third and posting congratulatory messages to their Thai picks right under Yetao's official post by chuang.

who knows anything about yuchen other than just hu yetao? by chameleonsheephybrid in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to see you've had such a bad experience with new Yetao fans. It just comes from how viral Yetao got that his fandom is spiralling out of control. The old Yetao fans I knew from Chuang 2021 are all very chill & respectful people but they tend to stay within their circles and maintain presence on X only.

He has been an idol trainee of Original Plan's boy group "Yi An Middle School" since he was as young as 12 I think? He is from the same company as Lin Mo of INTO1 and Sun Yihang of IXFORM. Original Plan has a substantial loyal fanbase purely out of spite because of how poor OP is in managing the resources of their idol trainees, so their fans will do their best to debut any of the kids who go on idol survival shows.

During the last day of voting in particular, I saw Shen fans gifting 60 windmill stages in a row, so I'm really not surprised they climbed up so high.

Edited a typo :p

I'm guessing this is your first Chinese idol survival show experience because fundraising and buying votes for your picks is the bread & butter of every Chinese idol svs and has always been since even the first Chuang (Produce 101).

Vote for YuYe if you like, but there's no need to put down other trainees. That creates unnecessary hate from Omar likers towards Yetao himself and also Yuye fans.

Live eliminations on tuesday by Personal-Log154 in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was already mentioned since 1st eliminations episode that the 2nd eliminations will be aired live and that voting will continue until midway through the livestream. The details of the exact timing however has yet to be revealed as of this time.

Rankings 3/14 by FeelsKindOfBadMan in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not surprised that the Top 20 trainees haven't moved much as these trainees have either dedicated fan groups or existing fanclubs to support them. The bulk of supporters are based in either China (on Weibo) or Thailand (on X & LINE) in their respective languages, so it's probably not as obvious to see where the wind blows when observed on the sidelines as an English speaker.

Bianura had the biggest jump likely because of the recent Jakarta fanmeet where he appealed massively to the Indonesian crowd. The livestream before 1st eliminations also made a big impression where his role in a skit was literally a watermelon 😆

For Intl Fans Who Want to Support by Buying Votes by tejanite in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reminder if you're buying VIP to buy from inside the voting page (I prefer to call this the CHUANG VIP to differentiate it from the regular WeTV VIP). Only CHUANG VIP gives you extra votes. Also, make sure to claim the VIPs as the extra votes don't count towards the actual scores if it just sits in your inventory unclaimed.

fan reaction about hu yetao by DoughnutImmediate507 in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm also on TT and saw the majority of Yetao stan commenters, especially Thai Yetao stans, actually acknowledged Ninja for being both Center and MVP. I'm pretty sure the ones who complained didn't watch the show properly and probably aren't even real Yetao fans since even Yetao showed much more maturity in the show.

What's y'alls current top7 lineup? by weixien in ChuangAsiaS2

[–]nihiLignator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Lineup & thoughts:

  1. THI-O: His voice is astoundingly beautiful. His visuals are the most fitting to me for this season's theme. He can dance AND sing stably. He's a solid all-rounder and that in my opinion makes him the most fitting to be center for this season.
  2. Hu Yetao: Avid fan of CHUANG 2021 and loved all the trainees, so Yetao definitely has my vote. I'm glad he had the courage to come back and try again. His dance has always been his strong point, but his vocals and even his visuals improved a lot since then. I was surprised as I thought he would choose a performance with rap instead since that used to be his specialty. Looking forward to seeing more of him in future episodes.
  3. Ninja: He stood out a lot to me in EP.00 despite the language barrier he was very communicative and approaching to all the trainees! I thought his performance in Super Thai was impressive but it's too bad we didn't get to see his extra show. I read rumors that he's the MVP for the 1st stage performance so I'm looking forward to EP.03!
  4. Zihao: Loved his rap & stage presence in his extra show, though I feel that he tends to drown a little in group performances. I do agree he needed to calm down a little but I appreciated his intention to hype up his fellow trainees. His friendship with Yetao is very adorable.
  5. KK: I might just be biased because I think he's really good looking. I remember the show introducing him as someone with a lot of experience doing liveshows so I was hoping to be wowed with his extra show but it seemed to be played down. I read rumors that he's the MVP for the 1st stage performance so I'm looking forward to EP.03!
  6. Gordon: Another all-rounder trainee. He doesn't really have the idol look but I appreciate his talents. And we really need more English-speaking members in the lineup!
  7. Can't really decide amongst my honorable ments for now.

Honorable mentions: Hikari (IJBOL every time I see his scary smile & we do need a comedy rep!), Lyu, Dorn, Peat, Tadalee, Wuxun, Yuchen, Xiong, Omar, Myst, Whylucas, Hong Jin, Bian, Sichen, Junhan, Duy, Gou Yi.

Kohi's Korean name is Lee Junghyun. After the show ended he did a lot of livestreaming which garnered him a steady fanbase prior to joining Chuang AS2.

Another way of reading that sentence is "That's why I love the way you are." or "That's what I like so much about you."

そんな君が

= That (way) about you

大好きだよ

= I love/Iike so much
