« i’m back »

so, i disappeared for a while - had to take a break for personal reasons, but i’m back! it seems i’ve missed a lot, but i’ll give a little overview of everything as it stands now surrounding groups and the mga4 finals.

the finals of the mgas was last night and let me tell you all i’m surprised, disappointed, and a little pissed off. but, before i get into that i’ll just say i’m happy for kim doyeon - she was strong throughout the whole show - i liked her and i’m glad she ranked as high as she did. what i’m not happy about was who won. let me tell you this now, in no way do i have anything against kim junmyeon, apart from the fact he seems too cocky, but good god i have no idea why he won.

his singing is alright, his stage presence, i’ll admit, is striking, but you need more than some average vocals and good stage presence to be an idol. his dancing; mediocre, voice: alright, looks: alright, stage presence: great. to me, that doesn’t make a winner, that makes a solid ranker. i’d have given him seventh place. he’s got potential, sure, but he isn’t at the level i’d expect of a winner. 

i also want to point out that that kid, lee minhyung, had bigger balls than pretty much all the other contestants, and i’m baffled as to why he ranked twentieth. he had the skills, he had the flare, he was exciting, and i’m starting to think mnet had something against younger contestants. 

anyway, enough of that, i’m annoyed enough as it is. 

now, luxe debuted finally, and i enjoyed their album immensely - i can’t give an in depth review at this moment in time, as i’d need to look into them more, but for now all i’ll say is i’m proud of those girls, and how hard they’re working. their debut went well and they’ve shown great performances in their promotions this month. 

now, for eclipse - we’ve been introduced to taeyeon, anna, minji and blue. again, as i’m not a big girl group enthusiast, i don’t have a lot to say on them yet, though i do love anna; she looks adorable. other than that, i’m looking forward to see what they’ve got to offer. they seem to have a summery vibe, which will be nice i’m assuming they’ll be debuting in autumn, it’ll bring back that last leg of summer for those who miss the sun!

finally, convex! we’ve met all the boys, and episode one of project convex aired last week, so we’re well on the way to debut, i should think. i’m still somewhat undecided on a bias, it keeps changing! right now i’m really enjoying taeyong and royal (no surprise there), but romeo sure is about to rip off my entire scalp. 

that’s all for now, i’m exhausted and the bf’s calling me for our date. anyway, i’m excited to see what else comes of the recent happenings, but for now, that’s all beibeis!

[rkbenjizen-blog]

can you tell us your favorites from all companys? (singer, dancer, rapper)

oh gosh, all of them?! right well, i’d better get started then since I’ve got a heckuva lot to say! (thanks for sending questions, beibeis, i love receiving them, and answering them for you!)

i’ll go from my favourite company, to my least favourite then i suppose, so first up it’s… 

SPHERE » i’ve always been a big fan of sphere’s idols, namely chaos and royal pirates, but recently i’ve been exceptionally excited for the newest boys they’re bringing out in convex, which i’ve already figured out my favourite’s in - my favourite convex singer is nam woohyun (who we’ve recently learnt is now called royal!), his voice just makes me feel things, and i’m a sucker for those ballad voices, which he certainly has. my favourite convex rapper is probably choi seungcheol aka prhyme, who at first didn’t stick out to me, but after seeing his teaser video and thinking more about him, i realised he’s got a certain charm to him that’s really catching my attention to more i see him. my favourite dancer was very hard to pick considering all of the dance unit caught my eye in different ways, but kim kibum aka k.i has had my heart for quite a while now, since i’ve been following him since dream high. for the girls, i really like jung soojung, who i’ve had my eye on since mga season 3, and also park sunyoung, because i love a strong woman and she’s definitely got that ‘strong woman aura’!

KT » anyone who knows me knows that kt is probably my favourite company; they’re very much my taste and are constantly producing top notch groups such as chi chi and lc9 (who for years were my only source of happiness) so i’ve been rather excited to see what happens with eclipse! of course, i already have a bias, kim yerim aka anna! my favourite guy in kt is by far lee taemin, a guy i’ve followed right from mga season 1!

ROYAL » i always liked brave girls, but wasn’t ever a hardcore fan, so even though i haven’t been keeping up with luxe as much as i should be, i have looked into them a few times, enough to have a little excitement for their debut. i’m not quite sure who i like the most, possibly nam dawon aka sona, but i’ll wait until their debut, or see more of them, to pick a bias. however, my favourite female trainee, a finalist in royal survival, is lalisa manoban! my favourite male trainee is byun baekhyun, who i’ve had eyes on since mga season 3!

NOVA » despite not being the biggest fan of nova, i do have a soft spot for nell and myname! unlike sphere, kt, and royal, nova has been pretty silent recently, with no whispers of any upcoming groups on the horizon, which is a disappointment in my eyes - they tend to debut very strong groups! nevertheless, i have kept my eye on their trainees! firstly, my love, son seungwan, another person i’ve kept an eye out for since season 3 of the mgas. she stood out a lot to me back then, her amazing vocals catching my attention easily. there’s also my long standing love for lee sunmi, kim seokjin and yoo changhyun!

TRC » this ones a lot harder, considering trc is my least favourite company (because of some rumours i’ve heard about the way they punish their trainees *eyes emoji*) but also bc nothing ever happens there. trc’s debuted a few great groups, but trc has been fading into the woodwork for me for ages, so i’m not even sure who’s a trainee there anymore. i know of kim yubin and lee jongsuk, two trainees who appeared in the mgas (yubin in season 2 and jongsuk in season 3). other than those two i either dont’ know or remember the others, or they just have very few public trainees. i always wonder if trc’s going to surprised us with a new group out of nowhere, but we shall have to wait and see, i suppose.

« mga contestant overview #1 »

alright so this is way past due, and i should’ve posted this weeks ago when the first episode aired but guess who’s a useless netizen?! this guy. but finally i’ve managed to gather all my info and sort out a good review of each and every contestant (including those eliminated this week). 

so, without further ado, i’m going to go over every contestant and my thoughts on them! this post will feature the first 5 contestants (i’ll be going over 5 in each post, otherwise my posts would be far too long).

LET’S START FROM...

#4003 : kim junmyeon

so, let’s start from the first time we saw mister kim, shall we. our first glimpse was in EPISODE 1, when he was shown boasting about how he made the makeup artists giggle and blush, and how his extra skill was taking ‘the perfect selca’ - now, sure, for some this might be endearing and draw in fans, since this kind of confidence is hard to find, but for me he felt a little too full of himself. sure, he’s handsome, but 1) he’s not my type and 2) i’m sure he’s no more handsome than a lot of the other contestants, so tooting his horn too much and focusing on his looks in that episode was kinda... not for me to put it lightly. 

but let’s move on to EPISODE 2, now, again, a large focus was put on his visuals with him saying “i’m the good-looking singer hopeful”. it’s tasteless if you ask me, and overshadowed his performance for me - he’d left a bad taste in my mouth already by that point, and though his singing was good, it wasn’t the best (and i’m not going to even mention how self-absorbed he seemed when checking himself out in his phones reflection after his performance). 

onto EPISODE 3, junmyeon was placed into TEAM A, alongside contestants #4017, #4034, #4036 and #4037. clearly he’s gathered some fans for himself already as one of the first shots of episode 3 is a girl declaring her ‘heart only beats for kim junmyeon’, which didn’t surprise me - a lot of people pick biases purely for a looks, because let me tell you i’m almost certain he’d be nowhere near as popular if he didn’t have a relatively handsome face. placed in a group where he was the main vocalist seemed like a stroke of good luck for this guy - he had no other vocalists to overshadow him, but i must say i was surprised he wasn’t chosen as leader since he seems like he’d like the attention. at least he showed he had some weaknesses (despite his tasteless confidence), when it came to dancing; he didn’t look like a dancer to me at all, and i was proved right when he was seen creaking his way through the dance moves. 

the actual performance shows him, once again, highlighting appearances (though thankfully not just his own this time) but i could comfortably agree that yes, the group was made up of attractive men, though i wasn’t sure what bearing that had on them skill wise. surprisingly junmyeon had fewer lines in the performance, which i personally felt was a bad choice, since so far the most i know about him is he has an averagely good voice, and being far too cocky. i’d have liked to see him show what he really has to offer vocal wise, but whether he was given less lines, or chose to have fewer lines wasn’t clear. he finished in centre position, which was, in a way, balancing the performance out, and with his charisma is did work. the performance was strong, but i’m still not too fond of the guy, and would like to see him place less importance on his looks and more on his singing. 

as much as i dread to see more of his focus on his looks, i’m hoping he shows more vocal strengths in EPISODE 4, as he’s been placed in TEAM A, a group with 4 dancers (remember he can’t dance very well, yet i’m sure the next performance will have a heavy dance focus, meaning he’s going to have to rely on his singing). i’m really hoping the focus on looks will calm down and that he’ll show us more singing, as he does have a good voice, and with some improvement he could be a great main vocalist.

#4004 : kim doyeon

sadly, i don’t have a lot to say about doyeon considering she’s gotten about half the screen time kim junmyeon’s gotten. she’s a dancer, born in ‘97, and has great proportions (if being an idol doesn’t work out for her, she could definitely be a model, that’s for sure, though i’d put money on her having done modelling in the past). in EPISODE 1 we don’t see a lot of her, just a clip of her dancing, and that’s about it. it’s enough to see she’s talented, at least, and knows how to move those long limbs of hers. 

EPISODE 2 shows her being the first female performance, which made her stick in my mind that was for sure. she mentions her height (an amazing 173cm) which definitely makes her stick out (in a good way!). her dance is sharp and fast, definitely showing off how well she manages to move long limbs (since usually taller individuals look a little awkward dancing). she definitely has talent, and i would say i’m rooting for her as she really has an idol vibe about her already. 

so, in EPISODE 3 she’s in TEAM B with contestants #4010, #4012, #4039 and #4052, a group composed of dancers and singers. the start of the episode clearly shows someone with a banner for her (which made me smile), there’s something about the girl which makes you like her, i think - it could be her smile, but i have a feeling she’ll have a lot of fans. she’s shown in a very positive light in the clips from their practise room when she encourages her group members. of course, it could be for show - you never know with things like this, people want to look good, so they’re going to show the best them they can be, and leave out all their nasty habits (at least for some), though with doyeon i doubt it, she really seems genuinely nice.

her performance is strong, showing she not only can dance, but her vocals aren’t all that bad either, and she’s able to catch the camera like a true pro (which further makes me believe she has experience with cameras and being in front of the lens). 

for EPISODE 4 she’s been placed in TEAM C, a very well rounded group with some dancers, singers and rappers (very different from TEAM A for this week). i’m looking forward to seeing was 2018 release the team will pick, and if we’ll get to see even more of kim doyeon’s dancing, singing and charisma that we’ve only been given a few little tastes of so far (this weeks performance certainly wasn’t enough to satiate my hunger to see what this girls got to offer). 

#4005 : jin longguo

if anyone caught my eye during the past 3 episodes it was this guy! he’s definitely my type (as some of you may have already been able to tell), but i’m a little disheartened at how little screen time he seems to get. in EPISODE 1 he showed us his amazing singing voice with an original song; very good idea in my opinion, a risk worth taking. it shows he’s creative as well as having good vocal abilities. 

EPISODE 2 showed us a very expressive, fun performance from longguo, who showed that not only can he sing, he plays the ukulele too. i find it funny that he seems basically stone-faced when he’s not performing, and though it could be taken the wrong way (which i know a lot of people do, thinking they’re only putting on an expressive performance to look good), i think it adds to his charm. 

onto EPISODE 3, this one showing he certainly has garnered some fans, one of the first shots depicting a sign made for him, held up among the sea of audience members. thankfully, i’m not the only one who likes him, so maybe that means he’ll go far and get more screen time as he gets more popular, but i guess we’ll just have to wait and see! in this episode he was placed in TEAM C with contestants #4026, #4038, #4040 and #4050. the group mainly made up of singers and dancers chose one of my all time favourite songs, troublemaker! the performance was, in my opinion, very good and showed off each of their skills well (and i loved the flirty performance between chungha and the guys.

so, next week, in EPISODE 4 longguo will be in TEAM D, another group of singers and dancers. i’m hoping there will be more footage of longguo next week, so i can see more of what he has to offer, as i feel positively parched right now. 

#4007 : choi yoojung

EPISODE 1 gave us our first look at choi yoojung, a very cute, small girl. she’s got a very pretty smile, but didn’t stand out to me all too much at first. she didn’t get a lot of screen time, so i’m not too sure what to think of her yet. 

EPISODE 2 was much the same - not enough content to really have an opinion on much other than that she can dance well. at this point i knew she was a great dancer with a nice smile, and that was about it. i think she sort of seems like the exact opposite of doyeon in a way - doyeon seems to have a lot of confidence and seemed very comfortable and calm, while yoojung seemed to be kind of nervous, in a cute way. not to mention doyeon’s super tall and yoojung’s pretty short. 

in EPISODE 3 yoojung was in TEAM E with contestants #4025, #4043, #4047 and #4049, a group with a mainly singers and dancers but one rapper (which in my opinion was a pretty good mix). i wasn’t too sure if i liked her rap part in the song, but she clearly tried hard. 

next week, in EPISODE 4 she’ll be in TEAM E again, another group of singers and dancers and one rapper. seems to be a bit of a pattern here. i don’t have much to say about yoojung yet, so i’m hoping they’ll show more of her as time goes on and i can get more of an opinion. 

#4008 : kim hyuna

what don’t i have to say about kim hyuna?! everyone will remember the fiery rapper from mga season 3. when i saw her in EPISODE 1 i was surprised to say the last - last i knew she was training under royal, but apparently that relationship ended. her song choice really showed she was coming back with a vengeance, but i did wonder whether it was going to be fair having a seasoned professional in the show among all the young’uns and inexperienced newbies. 

then, EPISODE 2 really showed what she’s made of. performing a song written by herself i found myself genuinely captivated by how much stage presence she has. it’s almost as if, even if she didn’t have the voice and skills she’d still be able to hold the audience’s attention somehow. i wasn’t sure if i was going to be happy she was there or not, considering she’s got a big advantage over the other contestants, and it’s pretty clear to see in my opinion when she performs, but from her performance in EPISODE 3 it was clear that she didn’t want to use her advantage to get above the other contestants unfairly. she really could have easily let the others fall behind and just put herself first, but since she didn’t it really helped me have a lot of respect for the girl. obviously, she was chosen as the leader, and though it sort of put her in the limelight a little, it was the best option since she has the most experience. also, she took her group out for dinner, and since i love food, i’d love to be in her group, so she shot up my list of favourites pretty fast. 

next week, in EPISODE 4 hyuna’s going to be in TEAM C with a good mix of rappers, dancers and a single singer. i’m excited to see if hyuna lets her experience bring her above others eventually, or if she’ll put effort into making things equal - it must be a hard balance to find, but she seems smart enough to manage it. i have high hopes for hyuna, though it could just be that i’m familiar with her from season 3, but we shall see where this goes, shan’t we. 

so, that’s the first five contestants! a mix of opinions i suppose, but i’ve got a lot more to go, so keep an eye out for my next mga post where i’ll be going over the next five contestants, #4009, #4010, #4011, #4012 and #4014!

catch you later, beibeis!

« CONVEX showcase overview »

hi again beibeis! let’s get this review of the rappers of CONVEX on a roll quickly as i’m headed out soon! these boys were particularly eye catching, and that’s saying something coming from someone who usually doesn’t pay all that much attention to rappers.

so, without futher ado, here are the convex rappers!

bone structure 👌🏻

as good as his rapping is he didn’t stand out to me all that much - not to any fault of his own, though, he’s just not my type. he seemed a little shaken at the very start of the unit performance, but i think that’s to be expected from a predebut groups first show. he did really well though and showed a lot of charisma towards the middle and end of the performance. sadly, my attention is rarely caught by rappers, but maybe he’ll win me over later, we’ll just have to wait and see.

mr muscle aka yu barom

i’ve definitely seen this guy before - who could forget the man who turned down a contract after winning the mgas in season 2?! he’s still as handsome as he was back then, and i was pleasantly surprised when he appeared, and not just because of his muscular body which was surely enough to earn him a few fans. not only does he have a great body but he’s good at what he does too. i’m not expert when ti comes to rapping but he surely sounded good to me. good to see you again, mr muscle, i hope i’ll be seeing a whole lot more of you!

eyecatcher

if any of the rappers caught my eye it was this guy. he’s got some very distinct features, and i’m more than sure he managed to accumulate a significant amount of fans already, maybe even more than mr muscle, despite the distinct difference in total body mass - in comparison to yu barom, this guys pretty slender (though could for sure be hiding a chiselled figure for all we know). his rapping, to my non-rapper ears, sounded good; he had nice flow, and has a very suitable voice that’s nice to listen to. 

ice ice baby

so, this pretty boy seems like the type to come off as scary at first glance, from his icey gaze, but his smile can really brighten up and deflect that conclusion - he seems pretty soft if you ask me! something about his smile and seemingly boundless energy really seemed to carry the whole performance. i’d chance it to say he might be the youngest of the rappers - that or he’s just super energetic and charismatic. his voice is really distinct from the other rappers, and he manages to stand out well with his unique voice, so i’d say, for one, i’m really looking forward to seeing more of a rapper! 

SO THAT’S IT FOR THE RAPPERS! i’m obviously not as invested in rappers as i am singers and dancers, so sorry if this is a rather wishy washy post, i don’t want to give criticism if i don’t know what i’m talking about, but i dd think they all sounded very good, and they do a good job as rap line for the group.

that’s all from me, keep tuned for the dancer unit review, beibeis!

« CONVEX showcase overview »

boys, boys and more boys! anyone who knows me knows i’m a big fan of boy groups (mostly), so, when i heard of a showcase on the 30th of june for a new sphere boy group, called CONVEX, consisting of no less than 13 boys, well, it’s safe to say my ass was at that performance hall even before the doors opened. i couldn’t keep myself away! i simply had to see the hot new talent one of my favourite companies was releasing into the world, and let me tell you, it was worth every minute spent on the packed subway. i enjoyed myself so much during the afternoon show that i went right back for the evening one, eager to see those beautiful boys a second time.

so, without further ado, i’m going to give you my opinions on these boys and who i think they are - some i know, some i have yet to learn even the names of. 

the group, as some may already have heard, is split into three sub-units, the vocal unit, the performance unit, and the rap unit (which makes recognising each member so much easier - thank you again, baek jiyoung, for you’re truly outstanding intellect ).

LET’S START WITH THE VOCAL UNIT! 

hong jonghyun

here’s a face i’ve seen before - at first i couldn’t put my finger on where from, but then it clicked. i saw a picture back in 2015 of this man kissing one park ‘piper’ eunji, a kt trainee at the time (who i followed casually for a while). not to bring up old, forgotten things, though. since then i’m sure i saw him in a sphere concert before. needless to say this guy’s been floating around for years now, and boy am i glad he’s finally surfaced. the talent this man has is incredible. not to mention he’s painfully attractive. in short, i’m excited to see more of him. the showcase wasn’t nearly enough to sate my hunger. 

lips (kim jinwook??)

this is one i’m unsure on, but lord does it feel like i’ve seen him before, and he could be kim jinwook who was on mga season 3, but i’m not 100% sure. nevertheless, he’s got a beautiful voice. the showcase was enough to prove to me that this boy has what it takes to go far with that voice of his. might not be exactly ‘my type’, but he’s surely talented, and his lips are somethin’ else!

felt his voice in my guts

what the heck do i even say about this god-given being?! when he sang my actual insides did about twenty-thousands flips, in the best way. he has such a soulful voice i want to hear just him sing a million ballads. he’s definitely making me feel things! could’ve sworn i saw him somewhere before too, but definitely not at vividly as the last two boys. even so, this guy is gonna go far, i feel it in my soul. he had great stage presence, and a smile that could light up the room. i truly love this guy.

mr eyesmile aka lee jinki

i’ve definitely seen this wonderful man before, and that was in mga season 3 as well; he was a finalist in fact. i knew him the moment i saw him, from the beautiful eyesmile no one could forget. he has this really sweet aura, and his voice, a very pure, clear yet delightful sound really works for his ‘nice guy’ appearance. he seems to know how to hold himself well on stage as well, clearly from being in front of audiences and cameras and judges before. overall, i’m really looking forward to seeing more of him.

anime baby boy

THIS BOY! never before have i seen such a beautiful boy (after my bf of course) who looked like he walked right out of an anime. he had this charming, sort of nervous feel to him, as if he was much newer to performing than, say, lee jinki. i have a feeling he’s a newer trainee, possibly around having been a trainee for around a year? that being said, he was truly a good pick for the boy group. his voice is soft and sweet, seemingly just like him, and though there does seem to be some distinctive personality and depth to his voice that really distinguishable to him. clearly, he’s my type, so this little one is very much in the running to be my bias in convex!

THAT’S IT FOR THE VOCAL UNIT! 5 down, 8 more to go! my next (convex) post will be on the rappers of convex, so keep an eye out for that!

see you soon, beibei’s!
