I think because you guys didn't watch R U Next, the editing choices are odd for Jeemin, but it makes sense if you had the background information that she missed ILLIT by a hair, and had a strong fanbase from that show back then. So their dramatic usage of her is more similar to a Jay or Yeoone being used as viewer bait by MNET in Build Up because she was the most well known of the contestant pool.
it's actually even crazier bc i believe she actually made it into the final lineup at #4 by pure korean ad global votes, but the reason she didn't debut is because hybe handpicked 4/6 members themselves essentially making it so she wouldn't debut.
that "jeemin in 5 weeks" edit was CRAZYYYYYYYYY i could not believe they did that when i saw it. but it's def the one "omg wait till you see it" moment (it's deadass at the end of part 1). part 1 (as you can tell) was all pre-recorded before the show started so just keep that in mind lmao
Omg. So our whole family is rewatching Boys Planet and your recaps for my husband, who is now so invested (and loves the two of you so much). We also got him to watch I-Land 2 (not applicable as we always say). We all got up early yesterday to livestream the I-Land 2 finale, and my husband couldn’t sit down (his first experience with a survival show). I sent him this video just now and he’s so disappointed we didn’t have you two on our I-Land journey. All I’ll say is that I cried for the first time on any survival show ever. Enjoy and thank you for recapping!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
loved your jungeun rant, she's my p01 and seeing her in drama was the reason i started watching the show lol. can't wait for your reaction to the next episodes
With no spoilers, I'll just add my two cents about my top trainees based on Episode 1: Sarang, Fuko, Sujung. As opposed to ITZY, you need to watch their debut/early stuff like "Dalla Dalla", "ICY", "Not Shy", "Wannabe" & "Mafia in the Morning". Those are the top-tier ITZY songs before whatever fluff they decided to try out two years ago lol
As a Jiyoon fan idk if I'm mentally recovered enough yet from going through this in real time to watch you experience this all a first time. "let's not traumatize the contestants" ...just wait
OMG I'm just so glad you're watching this! I was so disappointed when it started airing and your reactions weren't coming out. But... get ready lol. The drama in this show is spicy just like the first season
I'M SO HAPPY YOU IMMEDIATELY LOVED GYURI TOO :') THAT WAS IMMEDIATELY MY FIRST REACTION!! I love both Gyuri and Fuko, but at this performance everyone was talking about Fuko, but just like you guys I couldn't take my eyes off of Gyuri! Also, THE K AND TAKI COMPARISON :')))) YESSSSS :'))))
Your recap put me in a good mood, thank you! I simply love your Jungeun freakout! Baby Cheetah Drama Empress! (Drama Queen will forever be Jiyoon, for other reasons hehe :D) Jungeun made me a believer since day 1, and I can say my reaction was very similar to yours... I had dejavu seeing your commentary hehe. While the Drama performance kickstarted my love for the triple Js, Jungeun became my ultimate favorite... how can one not love her? How? I think she may very well be one of those extremely special talents to never make a mistake throughout the entire run of a survival show... I don't want to spoil things, so I'll just say... girl can even rap... in English! Jungeun saranghae! ❤
Ahhh this is so fun that you're doing this! I literally think I need this so that I can heal from the heartbreak that I personally experienced during the finale yesterday (if you know you know), so I am gonna use yall as therapy, I hope you don't mind lol.
V LATE but the way they’re treating Jungeun reminds me of how Bang Yedam was treated during YGTB. Even though there were very talented people in YGTB, you KNEW Yedam was the ace. So excited to binge these episodes! (there’s 3 rn so there’s enough to binge 😍)
Now we're in the girlgroup era another show I think you'd really enjoy is Girls on Fire. It's a female vocal girl group survival show which really stays true to it's focus on vocals and has some absolute KILLER performances. It's sooooo good and the final lineup is also just ✨🤌
THE WORLD IS HEALINGGGG i didnt expect u guys to watch this!! so excited to watch through again-ish with youuuu (i watched through most of the show live and fell off a little ripppp)
THere have been a couple of groups from Queendom puzzle that have had comebacks. Rocket Punch had a comeback right after Queendom Puzzle ended, and then have not been heard from since, though I think I heard something about Juri leaving the group but might not be factual. Purple Kiss had a comeback and a US tour actually, Weki Meki just had a disbandment comeback song which was emotional for me, and Wooah has had a comeback as well, I see Nana all over tiktok. (I think I read somewhere that Cherry Bullet disbanded but don't remember seeing a formal announcement though I don't actually follow them closely.) I also know that Chaeyeon just had her first comeback since the show as well. Oh yeah, and Hi-Key just had one too. They really dropped the ball on promoting those girls after the show, I thought that was the point but I haven't heard from most of them until recently. I also never saw the supposed collab stage at the end of year events they were supposed to do, though I may have missed it, but idk.
Well my wounds from this show are still fresh. But I’ll watch the recaps for you guys lol. Also to be honest I didn’t properly watch the whole episodes anyway. I just watched the full cams and made my judgements off of that.
Tbh, I was adamant on not watching this show, since I was appalled by the outcome of RUCuTe. But I saw Jungeun's drama clip, & it gave me hope. I was not disappointed by this lineup, they all deserved it 😊
just found y’all’s channel and i just wanted to say if you need a recommendation for another survival show after this you should watch project alpha. it’s a tpop show but as someone who only knows about kpop it was really easy to get into despite knowing nothing about the industry and there are some VERY fruity men (fluke) on that show🙏
Yesss im so glad. always love your commentary and reaction and am excited to see your opinions on some of the stuff that will happen in iland2!! Thank youuu
OMG I know the artists who made the Shiny Boys Boys Planet zine! They're friends of mine--I'm glad you were able to pick up that zine, it's super cute!
if u haven't yet, u guys should watch the iland 2 dance previews that came out before the first episode that showcased the girls dancing to different styles
1. wait this is so fun i wish i was watching it for the first time again…. i really hope you don’t get any spoilers!!! 2. the way i thought yall were speaking in another language at times bc this is my first video on your channel (i’m already ready to go back and queendom puzzle with you) but it was so funny trying to keep up for a second with no context
have yall forgotten , Iland 1 was filmed in the middle of pandemic and lockdown?. theres not much people can go inside the building. they cant just make big production weekly. it would have even more bigger risk. even that why would a big company let kids be endangered 😭. of course its gonna be that way
Here’s hoping you do choose to race to finish the show - two a week? It is a well made show without much, jf any evil editing. Now that the strong line-up is known, a regular weekly review doesn’t make sense.
If you guys go back and watch other survival shows, I recommend the fantasy boys precursor My Teenage girl. Not as crazy as fantasy boys but the girls are so talented. Jungeun's sister is in it. Jungeun also sounds like she has a better mic than the other girls
Lmao "Who is that lesbian" is absolutely the correct reaction to Itzy
Adam not knowing ryujin from ITZY is breaking my brain
She’s my queen
Jungeun in Drama was the peak that made me want to watch I-land 2
Y'all coming out as sneakers apologist gave me the confidence to come out as a baggy jeans apologist thank you for this😭

@@nnaiixx4360 I didn't know that! I rage-quit watching the show after Chanelle was eliminated, haha.

Ahhh! As someone who has been a voting I-LAND 2 watcher over the past few months I am so excited to recap it with you all !!
If you are muting iland2, please mute the final group name “izna” as well! you might get spoiled
obvi do whatever works best for yall but i'd love to see your lineups throughout the show + reaction to the finals without you knowing who debuts! 👀👀
i recommend just muting every single girl's names on twitter too LOL that's what i would do every elimination week

i cried for the first time too T_T

“I wrote Malaysia” that’s going on my Ampliverse iconic moment playlist 😭😭

I just watched the finale, and opened youtube to this. Ready to mourn
ILAND 2???? OMG right after the final episode too omg
20:45 Juwon seriously deserves so much praise 🙏🏻
When you mentioned no one from Queendom Puzzle has done anything, I had to sprint to the comments to say Yuki has a cb with Purple Kiss called BBB.
As a Jiyoon fan idk if I'm mentally recovered enough yet from going through this in real time to watch you experience this all a first time. "let's not traumatize the contestants" ...just wait
OMG I'm just so glad you're watching this! I was so disappointed when it started airing and your reactions weren't coming out. But... get ready lol. The drama in this show is spicy just like the first season
so happy you guys are doing this, your reviews are more fun than the show itself..you are in for a ride
I'M SO HAPPY YOU IMMEDIATELY LOVED GYURI TOO :') THAT WAS IMMEDIATELY MY FIRST REACTION!! I love both Gyuri and Fuko, but at this performance everyone was talking about Fuko, but just like you guys I couldn't take my eyes off of Gyuri! Also, THE K AND TAKI COMPARISON :')))) YESSSSS :'))))
I finally got it. jungeun looks like the actress in Love for Love's Sake (Si Ah, Woongki's sister). Now, I can't unsee it lol
Your recap put me in a good mood, thank you! I simply love your Jungeun freakout! Baby Cheetah Drama Empress! (Drama Queen will forever be Jiyoon, for other reasons hehe :D) Jungeun made me a believer since day 1, and I can say my reaction was very similar to yours...

Omg??? Exactly what I needed rn TT LOVE YOU GUYS REACTING TO EXACTLY WHAT I'M WATCHING TT
Ahhh this is so fun that you're doing this! I literally think I need this so that I can heal from the heartbreak that I personally experienced during the finale yesterday (if you know you know), so I am gonna use yall as therapy, I hope you don't mind lol.
for the first few episodes I unironically thought the show was calling the egg the meatball
i was waiting for this i could not put myself through watching this without these recaps LOL
V LATE but the way they’re treating Jungeun reminds me of how Bang Yedam was treated during YGTB. Even though there were very talented people in YGTB, you KNEW Yedam was the ace. So excited to binge these episodes! (there’s 3 rn so there’s enough to binge 😍)
Also, guys! Weeekly are having a comeback literally next week! If you were actually serious about thinking about Zoa all the time ;-)
jungeun is such an icon I LOVEEEEE HER 💖💖💖💖💖
omggg i have been waiting for this, some traumas will have to be relived but i’m excited to see your opinions on the show
I hope you guys can review girls planet someday your recaps are always so fun
say her name Ryujin
Now we're in the girlgroup era another show I think you'd really enjoy is Girls on Fire. It's a female vocal girl group survival show which really stays true to it's focus on vocals and has some absolute KILLER performances.
It's sooooo good and the final lineup is also just ✨🤌
omg I have been wondering if you guys are gonna cover I-land 2 and this is everything I have ever wanted!!
I WAS HOPING FOR THIS!
can’t wait for you guys to discover jiyoon
yall are in for a JOURNEY! so excited to relive this show with your podcast
I'll suggest you to look out for Saebi in future performances cuz she slays every one of them ^^ (my one pick)
I’m now imagining a world where Taeyang is in BTOB and I have to laugh
I've been watching most of your other content, but I gotta admit I love ggs a bit more so I'm very exited for this
THE WORLD IS HEALINGGGG i didnt expect u guys to watch this!! so excited to watch through again-ish with youuuu (i watched through most of the show live and fell off a little ripppp)
KOKO is my girl since baggy jeans !
i don’t think i can relive this show this quick oh girlll

10 Minutes in and i love this. PLEASE make a recap for every episode aaaah
Tbh, I was adamant on not watching this show, since I was appalled by the outcome of RUCuTe. But I saw Jungeun's drama clip, & it gave me hope.
I was not disappointed by this lineup, they all deserved it 😊

Yesss im so glad. always love your commentary and reaction and am excited to see your opinions on some of the stuff that will happen in iland2!! Thank youuu
YES! I am so happy you guys are recapping I-land 2
just an fyi Um Jiwon has a jaw injury which means she can’t open her mouth all the way and she was receiving treatment while filming
45:08 They recorded the drama performance at least twice. Check it again, Jeemin initially not wore choker, then it suddenly appeared in some cuts.
OMG I know the artists who made the Shiny Boys Boys Planet zine! They're friends of mine--I'm glad you were able to pick up that zine, it's super cute!
YESS THIS SHOWWWW, THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YALL!
if u haven't yet, u guys should watch the iland 2 dance previews that came out before the first episode that showcased the girls dancing to different styles
1. wait this is so fun i wish i was watching it for the first time again…. i really hope you don’t get any spoilers!!!
2. the way i thought yall were speaking in another language at times bc this is my first video on your channel (i’m already ready to go back and queendom puzzle with you) but it was so funny trying to keep up for a second with no context
I love your Jungeun brainrot👏
New iland content I can watch while the show is still fresh. Thx
YESSS GIRLS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!
it's peaceful rn but the drama will pick up soon, that's all im gonna say
Please speedwatch so you're not spoiled! I REALLY want to see your genuine reactions and surprise 🙏🏼❤️
I'm thinking you guys should check out the girl group Kiss Of Life
Fun fact about Ryujin: oomf from college had a couple of her fancalls with her go viral bc they were flirting so hard 😂
16:33 YESS kingie Hanbin is taking that jobb
WHY CAN'T I GET AWAY FROM THE KAMALA MEMES
yay jungeun ace all i need
i need this DAILY😭
And the fact that Jungeun is the most hated trainee in Korea because of korean beauty standards is crazy
you guys look so shiny and expensive!!! the glow!!
Jeemin is THAT girl
Just in time for me to be catching up too 🤩
btw if you're reading this I didn't ghost yall I got sent to the hospital 😭 I feel so bad
ah shit here we go again
have yall forgotten , Iland 1 was filmed in the middle of pandemic and lockdown?. theres not much people can go inside the building. they cant just make big production weekly. it would have even more bigger risk. even that why would a big company let kids be endangered 😭. of course its gonna be that way
it was a "survival show" .
nope, we didn’t forget!
Oh! please look foward to Jeemin
after the show is over? 😭
also um jiwon is the maknae she's 14, minsol is 16
Here’s hoping you do choose to race to finish the show - two a week? It is a well made show without much, jf any evil editing. Now that the strong line-up is known, a regular weekly review doesn’t make sense.
So this is the Sasha Colby (jungeun) of the season.
she’s your favorite trainees favorite trainee
@@TheAmpliverse I HAVE THOUGHTS BUT I AM GOING TO CLOSE MY MOUTH
Yes!!
Jeemin was my little favorite
Love you guys! Would you consider watching The Gap GL series? ❤
LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
🔥◌⑅⃝🍿🔥
Wait isnt iland2 over???
Yes
Yes!
funny you say the drama performance must've been one take cause it's already been proven that they filmed at least 2 takes
Its wild that Malaysia babydoll foxx made the finale lineup and I'm so glad she was p01.
delete
please don't spoil
If you guys go back and watch other survival shows, I recommend the fantasy boys precursor My Teenage girl. Not as crazy as fantasy boys but the girls are so talented. Jungeun's sister is in it. Jungeun also sounds like she has a better mic than the other girls
