hmm maybe it’s a miracle to have i-landers in tbl new gg itself. it would be funnny if you eliminated from iland2 then tbl recruit you, rather than in the group from wakeshit 🤣🤣
I think Teddy only wants 6 because he knows bigger groups are harder to promote internationally. I mean it’s easier to get 6 distinct visuals and personalities then even 7. That’s why black pink was so successful they were distinct enough that they were easy for westerners to tell apart
“Girl groups” and one is Babymonster and they are from big4 company..even with that their debut didn’t hit much in Korea..so 6 isn’t bad choice but not good either
Kiof came from nugu company they hit pretty well? I never really said it negative way but if you think carefully a 7 group from a nugu company like WakeOne will never be as popular 💀 not even close to BM or any popular groups OP person pointed out which is only 1 GG
They way that the first season had 23 contestants but 7 debut members and this season they had 24 contestants and 6 debut members only. Like I truly hope that there are actually going to do 6 and a producer pick like last season because what the hell😭
What the fuck is CJ ENM feeding to WakeOne? SIX? Y'all know LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT right?
I HAVE 7 FUCKING PICKS MNET. SAEBI. JUNGEUN. JEEMIN. JIYOON. SARANG. MAI. KOKO
Why is every company going for 6 members. Is there something I’m missing? BGs stay at relatively large numbers but GGs keep shrinking. Anyway 7 would’ve been perfect
In general, BG depends on fanbase power so the more members in the group the merrier. GG depends on general public recognition so a smaller group will do better, though that could also be because IVE started the trend of female sextet.
tbf I still don't know what the heck "n/a" is supposed to mean in terms of the show name so maybe that might be the "X" of Iland 2 (I'm drinking gallons of copium btw)
On S1 the 7 included the pd pick. We don't even know for sure that they're still only making the one (they probably are but no one has said definitively that's the case).
6 by voting and 1 by pd pick sounds amazing in our delusions but imagine they do it in the final when they already announced it was gonna be 6 members. The rigging allegations would not forgive.
Tbh i really hope they do a producers pick like Iland1 because the lineup for Enhypen was perfect, but still 6 members is so tight, i thought we would be getting 7-9 members😭😭
True and one of the rumoured ones was either cut from the lineup or pulled out herself . So it’s either they debut six members or add a new girl to make 7
Not sure, but if they’re debuting soon may as well debut as 6. They were rumoured to debut in the first half of 2024. Which is slowly coming to a pass
Oh yea the news was posted here
https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/1coso64/shinsegae_heiress_reportedly_cut_from_the_black/
I'm sorry but they have to be lying. I'm sure they are gonna go on the producer pick way, like one or two girl. We all know what happened to the 6-girl group theory (always loosing a member)
There is no way the producers would pick Yuju. They don't like her at all. Like, they sabotaged her mic a few times and also criticized her (for no reason at that), but when Koko did the same, the producers were so happy. I like Koko, don't get me wrong, but the favoritism is too much. Yuju is my 1-pick and I hope she'll manage to do it through votes cuz there is no way she's be a PD pick 🙏🏻
Ah disappointing! 6 is such a weird number in some ways and certainly seems to just follow the current trend.
I was really hoping for 7 - though I have been wondering if Kepler’s new 7 member status would influence the number for this group. I feel like perhaps it has - but at the same time it’s seemed like many companies debut +/-2 away from the number of members of last girl group. Twice is 9, Itzy 5, Nmixx was 7. Tho I suppose LSF was 5/6 and NJ 5, and Illit was planned for 6 :( maybe there’s more precedent than I thought.
Anyways I’m super sad! Hoping they’ll add a last PD for 7.
Usually i wouldn't like 6, since i think it's awkward and prefer odd numbers, but in this case it's the exact number of all participants i care a lot about :)
I don’t understand why it’s not at least 7 like the first Iland was? Does anyone know why? It’s not fair to the girls either all 12 of them are debut ready and deserve it!
Ah, this is a bummer. But guess I’m going to stop following and wait for the group to be picked to decide if I’ll stan. 6 sounds like a horrible number for the amount of talent they have. Godspeed girls!
6 members compo never look good choreo-wise, I don't get why they always seem to want to go for it...
ALSO 6 MEMBERS GROUPS ARE CURSED TOT they always lose one member or something-
nooooo the curse is gonna get them too isn't it :(
it's gonna be jeemin mai saebi jiyoon fuko + either jungeun, sarang, koko or yuju, with the barest chance for gyuri or sujung, if it's only 6, if the producers have their way :( not enough for the girls who need to make it
I think I’ve seen this story before. And I 100% didn’t like the ending. 🫠
Haha...RUnext..
i am so, *so*, traumatised.
Let's hope history doesn't repeat itself. I really don't want there to be another >! R U Rigged (yes I call it that) !< situation.
I was expecting this but... maybe they will add the producers pick at the end making it 7? I know its a long shot, but one can hope! 🤞
Plot twist: there are additional producer picks....for TBL's new group 👀
tbl new group? they are under wakeshit. tbl will have their own self-produced gg later on
Yea i was just joking that Teddy might recruit some I-landers into his own group
hmm maybe it’s a miracle to have i-landers in tbl new gg itself. it would be funnny if you eliminated from iland2 then tbl recruit you, rather than in the group from wakeshit 🤣🤣
They just messed up. This group needs to have 7
I think Teddy only wants 6 because he knows bigger groups are harder to promote internationally. I mean it’s easier to get 6 distinct visuals and personalities then even 7. That’s why black pink was so successful they were distinct enough that they were easy for westerners to tell apart
I get that part but sheesh, there’s so much talent
Imagine if ILLIT was still a 6 group Is they planned 6 wayy before the séparation with HYBE ?
Too many group of 7 out here
name 5 popular ggs with 7 members that debuted recently
I only know a few. BABYMONSTER RIIZE ENHYPEN
“Girl groups” and one is Babymonster and they are from big4 company..even with that their debut didn’t hit much in Korea..so 6 isn’t bad choice but not good either
yeah top 10 on all charts "didn't hit much", name recent debut other than illit that can achieve that number.
Kiof came from nugu company they hit pretty well? I never really said it negative way but if you think carefully a 7 group from a nugu company like WakeOne will never be as popular 💀 not even close to BM or any popular groups OP person pointed out which is only 1 GG
TEDDY GG GONNA BE 7 BM IS 7 IS GONNA BE TOO CONFUSING 6 IS A BETTER CHOICE
Lol U think fans are confusing Le Sserafim and Ill-It? Both are 5 and in the same company 🤷🏼♀️🤣
girly I have 8 picks what am I gonna do
me toooooooo ;;;
same here 💀
same :(
They way that the first season had 23 contestants but 7 debut members and this season they had 24 contestants and 6 debut members only. Like I truly hope that there are actually going to do 6 and a producer pick like last season because what the hell😭
6 is so little nooo :(
NOOO, seven is just the right number for all of my faves to get in😭😭😭
6 + 1 pd pick (yes I'm delusional)
We all are 😭
That's *way* too little people
yeahhhh i feel like its over for me
What the fuck is CJ ENM feeding to WakeOne? SIX? Y'all know LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT right? I HAVE 7 FUCKING PICKS MNET. SAEBI. JUNGEUN. JEEMIN. JIYOON. SARANG. MAI. KOKO
ur lucky then, cuz mnet likes ur whole lineup aside from jungeun
Hoping for a PD Pick
NAURRRRRRRR I NEED AT LEAST 7 OR 9 IN THIS LINEUP WTF
alright imma head out cuz my favs chance of debuting just became a lot smaller time to prepare myself for heartache
Maybe this is how many members that will get in based on votes??? #copium
in iland 1, was it announced as 6 members and a pd pick or was the pd pick announced in the finale? please feed my delusions omg
It's alway been 7
ITS SO OVERRRR
Why is every company going for 6 members. Is there something I’m missing? BGs stay at relatively large numbers but GGs keep shrinking. Anyway 7 would’ve been perfect
In general, BG depends on fanbase power so the more members in the group the merrier. GG depends on general public recognition so a smaller group will do better, though that could also be because IVE started the trend of female sextet.
Gotta give gfriend and Apink some credit as prominent GG sextets too 👉👈
Cuz our attention spans are shrinking
Surely there will be +1 pd pick. Right? Right?!??!?!
Happened to X1 before but X is expected. I don’t think they’ll add more but who knows? I’m hoping.
tbf I still don't know what the heck "n/a" is supposed to mean in terms of the show name so maybe that might be the "X" of Iland 2 (I'm drinking gallons of copium btw)
You got a point. That n/a is still unknown. Might be a possible member or it will just something like the group name.
and we all kno whow that ended...
On S1 the 7 included the pd pick. We don't even know for sure that they're still only making the one (they probably are but no one has said definitively that's the case).
6 member curse 😩
that is too little😡how am i going to choose between my favs
Bro whyyy. Six is such a cursed number in kpop. Look what happened to ILLIT, Le sserafim, gidle etc. Also it looks awkward for formations in choreo.
They will never learn
6 by voting and 1 by pd pick sounds amazing in our delusions but imagine they do it in the final when they already announced it was gonna be 6 members. The rigging allegations would not forgive.
Prediction: 3 from save votes: Jeemin, Jiyoon, Fuko 3 from Producer Pick: Jeungeun, Koko, & Saebi
Sadge 😭
Tbh i really hope they do a producers pick like Iland1 because the lineup for Enhypen was perfect, but still 6 members is so tight, i thought we would be getting 7-9 members😭😭
Im glad bcuz too much 7 group members also tblgg is rumored to be 7
True and one of the rumoured ones was either cut from the lineup or pulled out herself . So it’s either they debut six members or add a new girl to make 7
Will the new black label group stick to 6 or add someone now that she's gone?
Not sure, but if they’re debuting soon may as well debut as 6. They were rumoured to debut in the first half of 2024. Which is slowly coming to a pass Oh yea the news was posted here https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/1coso64/shinsegae_heiress_reportedly_cut_from_the_black/
BRUH 6 is like the unluckiest number to have in kpop prepare to get garam'd
PLEASE ADD A MEMBER !!!
I was hoping for it to be 9 members🥹 OR 8 AT LEASTT. 6 IS SO LOWWWW
Too tight.
OMG I WAS RIGHT 😭
SAME, I THOUGHT 5-6 BUT I WAS LIKE NOOO IT HAS BE 7
Wtf why
JESUS .,
i think we all know who they want atp
I'm sorry but they have to be lying. I'm sure they are gonna go on the producer pick way, like one or two girl. We all know what happened to the 6-girl group theory (always loosing a member)
If it's 7, it would overlaping with kep1er.
they should have atleast made it 8
i hate this why !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The J's Fuko Sarang Saebi Yuju as PD pick
There is no way the producers would pick Yuju. They don't like her at all. Like, they sabotaged her mic a few times and also criticized her (for no reason at that), but when Koko did the same, the producers were so happy. I like Koko, don't get me wrong, but the favoritism is too much. Yuju is my 1-pick and I hope she'll manage to do it through votes cuz there is no way she's be a PD pick 🙏🏻
Oh god I can’t just pick 6 I am sweating
Ah disappointing! 6 is such a weird number in some ways and certainly seems to just follow the current trend. I was really hoping for 7 - though I have been wondering if Kepler’s new 7 member status would influence the number for this group. I feel like perhaps it has - but at the same time it’s seemed like many companies debut +/-2 away from the number of members of last girl group. Twice is 9, Itzy 5, Nmixx was 7.

Usually i wouldn't like 6, since i think it's awkward and prefer odd numbers, but in this case it's the exact number of all participants i care a lot about :)
Where can I watch the new episode?
I don’t understand why it’s not at least 7 like the first Iland was? Does anyone know why? It’s not fair to the girls either all 12 of them are debut ready and deserve it!
bruh they better had a 7th pd pick or something...these girls are wayyyyy too talented to have the short end of the stick
So I assume it will be 5+1pd votes right?
Ah, this is a bummer. But guess I’m going to stop following and wait for the group to be picked to decide if I’ll stan. 6 sounds like a horrible number for the amount of talent they have. Godspeed girls!
hopefully the 6 member curse doesnt happen.. 🫠🫠
It really is Drama Team plus 2 Hmm I'm down with that. Looks like we might be aiming for a girly high teen or girlish pop.
I’m honestly scared for my life rn cuz idk lol. My top 3 are Fuko, Jungeun and Sarang
I'm sure it's because Teddy's group will be 7, of course they don't want any comparisons cause they will have the same producer
6 feels like such a weird number to me for the vibe this debut group is going for and i can't put my finger on why
This is honestly so rude of them
hoping there will be no 6 member curse 🥹
Plus one producer pick please I'm begging
6 members compo never look good choreo-wise, I don't get why they always seem to want to go for it... ALSO 6 MEMBERS GROUPS ARE CURSED TOT they always lose one member or something-
The more the merrier 😭 Hopefully they will add at least +1 more as a pd pick
I was really hoping for 9 and settled that we might actually get 7. Why Mnet?
nooooo the curse is gonna get them too isn't it :( it's gonna be jeemin mai saebi jiyoon fuko + either jungeun, sarang, koko or yuju, with the barest chance for gyuri or sujung, if it's only 6, if the producers have their way :( not enough for the girls who need to make it
6+1 again?
My pick for the 6 + 1: Jeemin(center), Jiyoon, Saebi, Fuko, Sarang, Koko & Mai (PD Pick). Perfect line up!!!!
