R U Next? (2023)

R U Rigged?

This officially takes the number 1 spot for worse survival show. I mean the judges can't judge, and all of them had no clue what they were talking about (especially that mustache guy). Prioritizing visuals over talent and booking on potential is just crazy. International fans carried this show, but yet I don't think our votes really mattered at the end of the day. They actually thought giving Knetizens basically full control on who debuts was a good idea. The final lineup is just bad and there's no other way to put it. These girls will have a really hard time from here on out. The toxicity surrounding this group is just insane and I don't see it stopping anytime soon. HYBE you really messed up this time. Also what's up with that group name I'LL-IT like damn that has to be one of the worse group names in Kpop ever.

RIGGED!!!!

a bunch of losers decide on the lineup and not the actual viewers. it pisses me off that on the internet, everyone has a similar lineup but then on the show it's unexpected. in simple terms, it's rigged asf. seeing the performance of all the trainee girls made me happy but i can't support this I'LL IT lineup. they are missing the GEMS: chanelle, jeemin, jiwoo and jihyun

shame on judges, staff and everyone responsible for this show and debut lineup...
this is mental torture for the girls in the program and viewers supporting the ones who actually deserve to debut

This Was Actually so Bad…

As angry as I am, I’m not saying this show was bad just because none of my picks made it. In the first few episodes, it was really enjoyable to watch, but as time went on I just found myself getting bored. The show felt rigged from the beginning and the overall system was just weird and sucked. Trainees got praised at the start but then got lots of criticism and went on to be eliminated. It just didn’t make sense. It felt more like a beauty pageant than a show for singing and dancing. All of the trainees definitely were talented, but the ones who should’ve ended at the top got pushed to the bottom. I was really looking forward to this since my first survival show was Boys Planet and I wanted to watch another survival show with a permanent group. However, I just can’t bring myself to support this group with this horrible lineup. I have nothing against the girls individually, but as a group, they don’t all work well together in my opinion. I’ll tune in for their debut to see if the songs are good but that’s about it from me. Tbh Sooyoung and Aiki were the only real ones on there. Also, what kind of name is ‘I’LL-IT’???

Some contestants deserves better.

I had high expectations for this show but like other survival shows it is always about popularity than actual talents but this time it's about judges favoritism over talents. It went from a 0 to 100 real quick.

I expected better from Hybe but I guess they already had their initial line up which is why the Judges had more power over the global voters. Imagine debuting a contestant because they have potentials and eliminating the ones with talents.

After the last episode, I can't classify this as a survival show rather it became a comedy ?show because what is that line up?

Well I wish the debut group all the best.

waste of everything

this was such a bad show and no, i am not sour because my favorite didn't debut or because the name is not pretty. the system WAS SO BAD. im serious. the audience had to vote but for some reason the audience's vote had almost no power on rankings and eliminations and then the dates didnt line up because the previews were so?? it showed they had already eliminated trainees but i had to still vote for my fav trainee who there was a big chance that was already eliminated so what am i voting for???????

and then with the sh*t show the final was, it all made sense. tell me how the audience voting for top 2 and judges choosing 4 makes sense for a show like this. AND ON TOP OF THAT, ONLY DOMESTIC VOTERS CAN VOTE. how are you marketing a group as global and not giving global fans a chance to vote?? they already had a group lineup, they just wanted a way to debut them and since the label is a broadcasting company, a survival show is obviously the only choice.

i'm happy for the girls because seeing them since day1 it makes me happy they can debut but it was soso bad I can't even enjoy the group lineup. the eliminated contestants deserve better. they will definitely do better outside of this.

this show is not what you expect from a company like that. hybe should do research on voting survival shows and then think of a better clear plan to execute it. this felt like they had run out of time and put together what they could with the show which led to the bad result (im not even getting into how bad evaluations interim were with the judges)

Wasted Potential...

The aesthetics of the show were beautiful and the theme song "RUN" sang by Suzy was amazing. There were so many talented trainees and such good potential line-ups but they chose to eliminate the best trainees and form an weak-ish? ... better said unbalanced line-up.
Yes I was dissapointed to see some of my favourites be eliminated through the show, but the finale showed how hypocrite the judges are once again. After praising certain trainees to the extent of saying they are one of the best and ready to debut literally the next day, the finale showed otherwise. They chose literally other trainees without any structure in their mind.

In the end we got a mix of trainees that are good and I really appreciate, but when you were to give each of them positions you'd see a really UNBALANCED group.

I have nothing against the final line-up! Such talented girls, but the way the judges were throughout the show really PISSED me off.

Worst survival show BY FAR; Hybe really shot themselves in the foot

Honestly, this was the most disappointing survival show I've ever seen. The judging didn't make sense, international fans weren't allowed to vote in the second round of the final voting, and they told fans at the last moment that votes would only matter a bit when it came to the final lineup. It's so clear that the company just chose the people they thought were cute or looked good, without regard to any of the girls in the show (including the ones picked). Most of the girls in the final lineup aren't ready to be idols. Hybe had more than enough girls with SO much talent to make one of the best groups in K-Pop, but they completely fumbled. There's a reason so many of the most dedicated fans of the show won't be supporting the final group. Hybe and Belift lost our trust and doomed the group to always be followed around by the shadow of what it could have been. All I have to say is smh.

wtf?!

I really looked forward to watching this and my expectations were naturally sky high since Hybe is a huge company. In the beginning(the first 2 episodes) I actually liked it because all the girls seemed so sweet and I was so obsessed with the theme song sung by Bae Suzy. Then it just got really boring really quickly. It was so obvious that the judges had already picked their lineup and began supporting only those trainees which they had a preference towards. I'm not saying any of this because my favs weren't picked but it was just so obvious that the girls were being unfairly treated. I feel so bad for the girls who worked so hard for this but couldn't achieve their dreams because Hybe didnt think they fit in their beauty criteria. A group should be created with balance of each type of performing talent but it just felt like al of the girls were chosen based on their visuals. And the fact that they were chosen based on their 'potential' and not actual talent is just absurd. The talented trainees were just constantly being degraded by the judges even when their performances were near perfect. This is absolutely no hate to the girls. All of them are amazing and yea I do believe that they can grow and bloom into something beautiful and this is not a question whether they deserved it or not. The girls just were not ready. The real disappointment isn't the girls but the actions taken by the company itself. I will continue to give my support to ILLIT as well as the trainees who could not debut and I hope that they chase their dreams and achieve them too.

All of this was entirely my opinion and it doesn't have to be similar to what you think about this. My opinion is mine and yours is yours which I completely respect. This doesn't have to change what anyone thinks but its just something that I thought needs to be put out there. You guys should definitely watch it and come up with your own views and perspectives about this.

Had potential to be a great show, but...

As most of these survival shows go, there is definitely a sense of unfairness in the portrayal of certain people and also in the voting. Not going to lie, the voting system was very weird and confusing. And the final episode really throws you for a loop with how the final girls are chosen. Now, with that being said, while I do believe a few girls were done VERY wrong, I do not fully dislike the lineup at the end. A lot of the girls I was rooting for made it in the lineup. A few made me like huh? But okay I guess. I think they will be a good group together, yes, but it still hurt to see how some of the most talented girls were pushed to the side for whatever reasons. I will still look forward to the debut of the final lineup because as I said, I was rooting for several of the girls so I want them to succeed. It isn't their fault things went down how they did.

Eu terminei agora o programa, fora da época de lançamento, e confesso que gostei muito de ter visto mesmo após todas as críticas que eu sabia que ele tinha. As dinâmicas foram criativas, as trainees são muito talentosas e as músicas escolhidas nos rounds eram verdadeiras obras primas do kpop. Porém, não dá pra negar que esse é um programa para se assistir como se estivéssemos vendo a própria empresa montar seu grupo de debut antes de lançá-lo, porque desde o começo é evidente o favoritismo da emissora e dos jurados (que provavelmente só estavam recebendo instruções), os quais só elogivam performances e trainees que a emissora queria enquanto ignoravam total outras que foram visivelmente incríveis, sempre arranjando algo para criticá-las. Não entendo até hoje o ranço que os jurados tinham da Jeemin, da Jiwo, da Joungeun e da Chanelle, eles nunca conseguiam falar uma coisa boas delas sendo que claramente eram as mais aptas ali!!

E sem falar do desrespeito que foi eles anunciando NO EPISÓDIO FINAL de que 2/3 da lineup seria escolhida pelos jurados, ou seja, pela JTBC... Então para que faz um reality de votação porra?? Não querendo desmerecer as meninas debutadas, já debutaram e vida que segue, mas tem umas ali que mal entraram no top 6 do programa durante o programa e nem eram tão populares, e que os jurados escolheram pra debutar porque eram a vibe do grupo que eles queriam, desprezando totalmente a jornada que outras trainees tiveram no programa e a popularidade delas. Juro, dou graças a deus que não assisti na época, assistir sabendo a lineup final e não tendo que votar fez eu prestar atenção mais nas membros do illit e menos ns trainees que com certeza eu iria stanear horrores se tivesse visto na época.

Enfim, votem na Jeemin no iLand 2!!
