park gunwook: i’ve never been in a snowball fight before. i don’t know the rules.

park hyunbeen: what?

park gunwook: is there a point system? or is it to the death?

Somebody pull a JBJ but with Zoom team (and kamden) pretty please

[thatsgoodkpop]

I've been slowly watching Boys Planet and I was super impressed by this stage, probably the best performance I've watched so far.

Sometimes the stages can feel a little stiff on these elimination shows where they throw groups together and give them a week to practice, but this one came off feeling fresh and fun. Even established groups sometimes don't show this chemistry on stage.

Three of them are really young and just so obviously natural performers. It's really fun to see and the kind of transcendent performance you're hoping to see on shows filled with so much talent.

On How Styling Can Change Outcomes

This post is about how styling choices affected the outcome of the Dual Position battle on Boys Planet -- click read more for my thoughts on how sex appeal matters.

So, in my final analysis of the Dual Position battles, I came to the conclusion that Zoom was one of my two favorite performances of the night (along with Limousine), and I was left to wonder why they didn't win the audience vote that night.

I came to the conclusion that they were seriously hampered by the fact that their outfits weren’t remotely sexy. Seriously, people vote with their genitals, a lot of the time, whether they know it or not. If someone gives you that sparkly feeling in your pants, it makes you want to vote for them. But the Zoom team, in their giant basketball shorts and unflattering athletic socks and gross lollipops and big, childish hats -- they were not sexy at all. 

They’re not elegant, they’re barely cute. If you met them for a date and they were dressed like that, you'd be disappointed. ::Shakes fist:: STYLIST NOONAAAAAASSSS!!!:::

Meanwhile, look at who won: Love Killa, Tomboy, and Law. 

Obviously, Love Killa is sexy. They’ve got Mr. Sexy himself as their center. They look like they’d smell like Noir de Noir by Tom Ford. 

For Tomboy, they were dressed in form fitting outfits, and General Gunwook had the gun show on display. They also wiggled around suggestively. They look like they’d smell like whiskey and Armani Code.

Law’s team were also dressed in form fitting outfits, they were grabbing their thighs, they were rapping in deep voices, and plus, they had Park Hanbin there to remind everyone that his abs are still there, right under his shirt. They look like they’d smell like new sweat and Old Spice. 

Sparkles in everyone’s pants for these teams!

But maybe not so much for Zoom. Based on their styling, they look like they’d smell like dirty laundry and Doritos.

Look at it. Keita looks like a SQUARE. Like his body is a SQUARE. Ollie, too.

Please understand -- I'm not making fun of the trainees, not at all. This is not a commentary on their appearance or bodies. I'm only talking about how they've been styled. I’m sure any of these guys could be sexy, or at least, appealing looking. Ollie and Hyunbeen might be a bit too young to be sexy-sexy-sexay, but they could do the cute kind of sexy that boy groups do. You know, like NCT doing Touch. 

Imagine Zoom, but they’re in jeans and colorful t-shirts. Like a little bit of a Gee by SNSD vibe, but more masculine. The outlines of their bodies would be clear -- no squares. Make them look like they smell like clean laundry and cookies. The vibe is that they're saying that you want to zoom in on them and take P-I-Cs of them because they're so good looking. Then they’re taking first place. Easy peasy. 

I think it’s a shame, because their performance is so much more fun than Law and so much better suited for MNET Countdown than I think any of the other performances were. 

Ok, thanks for reading!

[ominous-horse-noises]

jay is my ultimate bias and seungeon + jongwoo are in my top 9..... but the Zoom stage outsold every other this episode, including Love Killa. that performance was INSANE

[vizhs]

they really edited scenes out, now i'm mad

[ohsunnyboy]

rewatching the zoom performance makes me think of how much a ray of sunshine hyunbeen was and how much i miss him AHHHH

[blueaiyuice]

consider: zoom and ggang swap au

in another universe the two teams swapped songs. what do you think would happen

ZOOM

i think for zoom the distribution would be this (tho it'd be hard for me to say)

Seunghwan - Hyunbeen (killing parts, vocals in the middle)

Junhyeon - Wumuti (mostly vocals, high note, also has catchphrases)

Jeonghyeon - Keita (main rapper, good with beat switches)

Junghyun - Ollie (maknaes, cute, i was really torn about this one tbh)

Jianyu - Haruto (dancers, second-language raps, Jianyu has a lot of strength as seen in the couple contest so he could pull off a handstand me thinks)

and oh my god the fits would go so hard too, since theyre not as young-looking they might actually not get shorts, maybe something more streetwear like?

they wouldnt have as much of an impact as our current team zoom but theyd be iconic regardless

GGANG

for ggang its a little harder but this might be it (essentially a near reversal)

Keita - Jeonghyeon (main rappers, hypes up the crowd)

Wumuti - Seunghwan (we saw him do Seunghwan's neck slice, also great singer)

Haruto - Junhyeon (main dancer material, only downside would be not much of a rap)

Ollie - Jianyu (center plenty of times, can pull off the concept, rap at the end)

Hyunbeen - Junghyun (good tone control, would absolutely spit fire)

ik keita would get the junhyeon edit bc well...its rain, and well...yeah...but this team would also do fire! though they might also not have as much of an impact bc they prob wouldnt do the abs joke and whatnot (tho it helps that we know ollie and haruto can do this kind of concept thanks to Supercharger)

in conclusion: its a fun idea but its better it ended up this way
