Episode 4 is set to Air next Wednesday

the Spoiler at the end of Episode 3 revealed the "ultimate showdown"

Team 02:00 NTX vs Team 08:00 DKB

As someone who stans 30+ BG's

Like 80% of these groups I know or follow

of the ones that made it my thoughts are:

DIGNITY - I really like their pre-debut song Rambo I have high hopes for them HOWEVER they need to really work on their live vocals. the leader is also a former member of MASC

NTX - Personally i feel they are INCREDIBLY arrogant...confidence is one thing but they are just over the top arrogant for a fourth gen group...they need to rein that in a bit...

BXB - never listened to them before, i did like their debut song but this show is making me a fan, especially after the shit they have gone through when they were TRCNG from TS

MASC - same as BXB for 2 members remaining they are doing well

DKB - i mean they need no introduction they are on fire!

VANNER - i liked a couple of their songs since i found them, but their story is pullin at my heart strings for real

BAE173 - I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BAE173 ugh having them on here with so many faves sucks lol

GHOST9 - I absolutely adore ghost9!! like junhyung is so funny

BDC - i have heard of bdc and i do like their songs but they really need to work on their high notes and vocals

M.O.N.T - I don't care what anyone says M.O.N.T SLAYS...they are ABSOLUTELY SLAYING...there originally 3 members but the leader is enlisted and the 2 of them are just knocking the ball out of the park!

24K - as Corbyn said...they look happy go for it lol

DGNA - another group i've never listened to before but this show is really making me appreciate them!

Team 24:00

Moon Jongup (B.A.P), Gon (Argon), Heedo (B.I.G), Kim Byung Joo (Xeno-T) & Kim Hyunjae (Black6ix) -

First of all I FUCKING MISS ARGON..so seeing Gon is so refreshing and brings back memories and I just wanna sing Master Key every time i see him...though i don't know a lick of Korean...Moon Jongup probably one of the best dancers on that show, one of the most experienced and damn is he pretty

I'm becoming a fan of Jay Park as a judge, he's so real, funny and i just love him. Of course I already love Sungkyu and Gikwang so I'm getting some good fangirling eye candy with them.

one of the groups did Infinite's before the dawn and seeing sungkyu cringe had me rollin lol

If you all want to bring the chatter there...which is why I made it...

After Episode 6 My heart is so like omg

This show has made me fall in love with MASC and DGNA

My 8 group votes have gone to:

Dignity, MASC, DKB, Vanner, BAE173, Ghost9, M.O.N.T & DGNA

my Soloists Votes have gone to Moon Jongup & Gon (Argon)

dammit I miss Argon 'cause of him.

But now the first round of Votes have ended and the 2nd round begins after Episode 7.

Also the first elimination is about to happen like ugh.

My Poor Dignity Rookies.

Quote from Hopkinz

I want Vanner and Masc to do well

Vanners .using as a whole is hit or miss for me but their story is so genuine. This show also got me into MASC so I'm rooting for them. But damn my multi ass be struggling

Quote from Hopkinz

Did you not listen to them before?

Not MASC no. I never heard of them since they have been disbanded for a while until Peak Time. So yeah Peak Time is doing it's job lol never heard/listened to DGNA either before Peak Time.

Quote from lostatsea

I never heard of any of these groups before Peak Time tbh and some of these guys are so talented

Now that I've caught up on all the episodes, I have my fixed top and I'm rooting for m.o.n.t, DKB, DGNA, Ghost9 and Vanner! Karam and Bitsaeon are hands down my fav vocalists.

M.O.N.T is so bad ass!! They have 3 members but the leader is still enlisted. DGNA is so good this show really got me into them and amazing personalities. DKB is down right unbelievable! Their talent is insane! Ghost9 I've loved since their predebut mini movie. Junhyung is an amazing leader. As I mentioned earlier, Vanners music is hit or miss for me but they are super talented.

I'm glad you found some new groups to enjoy. When the first episode came out I was a fan of like 16/24 of the groups I was like my multi heart is in trouble lol

Quote from Hopkinz

Wow I thought you knew every boy group. They were one underrated group I actually listened to while they were active

They were before i got super into kpop. Didn't even know there was a group called Romeo til peak time either or bxb who were under ts as well. Yeah lol

Quote from lostatsea

I fell for M.O.N.T the moment they performed Fever! It's impressive how they own the stage when it's just the two of them. I checked out their disco and it's a shame the third guy couldn't join them. With him on the team, they'd be among the strongest vocally.

No but Junhyung immediately caught my attention! He's got such a fantastic stage presence, you really can't keep your eyes off him. He's among my faves now, actually.

DKB is incredible, they are like a professional dance crew and ngl I'm enjoying the positive vibes they bring. They all seem very likeable, D1 especially stands out. You mentioned Vanner's music being hit or miss and that's kinda how I feel about DKB. I've listened to some of their songs and only enjoyed about two of them...

It's impressive you manage to stan so many groups especially the nugu ones. This show was made for you

But I'm glad I gave it a shot, I will definitely try to stay updated on some of my faves after it ends

Display More

Oh man i recommend listening to all of dkb they some of the best bsides for real check out rose for example.

M.O.N.T seriously is fire ive been trying to get people into them they just command the stage with such force and I LOVE their music!

This show is one of the best survival shows. I hope they do it again with ggs and come back for another set of bgs!

Quote from Hopkinz

Romeo was another phenomenal group. Miro is one of my favorite songs of all time

I love that song! I read they were considered infinite's lil bros o thought that was cute. They had a great fandom name too. Juliet lol

Quote from Hopkinz

They were because tell me that these songs don't sound like Infinite. They were written by Sweetune (who wrote Infinite's hits)

What its mini infinite!! Why did they disband??? Sad they didnt make it past the first round. I like these songs!

Quote from Hopkinz

Like most nugus they just don't have the funds and their sales were horrible and inconsistent. And there was lots of competition in 2015 for rookie groups, boys and girls. So sadly lots of talented groups never had a chance.

I would stan if they make music but i guess since they didnt make it past the first round they probably wont

Quote from lostatsea

Thanks, I'll check it out! From what I've listened to so far though, my favs are Sober, Rollecoaster and Bubble.

M.O.N.T 's music is so stellar like I genuinely love most of their releases. It's hard to believe they aren't more recognised. Hopefully SK notices them now. Imagine my shock when they mentioned on Peak Time they toured in my country a few years ago lmaoo

Also I'll gladly welcome some Ghost9 recs

Sober remix version is top tier!! Their energy level is insane when they perform that live!

I wish M.O.N.T would come here they are just so talented I wish I could find their albums but they are all out of stock!

Ghost9 recs hm...I love ALL their titles tracks. I recommend watching their little mini movie it was cool as far as songs, the ones I enjoy (b-sides and tt's) are:

Think of dawn, reborn, w.all, focus, Seoul, uno, control, triangle, x-ray

They also went on a show for writers and producers called listen up! to perform a song that ab6ix daehwi and doko wrote its called monster its not on any album. But omg

Okay I still know how its a competition show but I kinda hope this is how these shows go from now on. Idols being praised/ smiling so happily like this is amazing.

I watched Youth With You/ Youth with You 2 (Chinese competition show) for my group Nine Percent and as well as Produce 101 for Wanna One. It was so different. I love this upgrade tbh, what about you?

The only group i cannot stand on Peak Time is NTX. They are way to overly cocky. Its not a good look. Confidence is one thing. I already stated in this thread that i love the aspect amd dynamics of this show. I hope they do a version for gg's and consider another round for even more bgs who could benefit from this.

The interactions are good and I'm sure most these people know each other or of each other.

Quote from lostatsea

Sober is so good I've watched possibly every existing ver of it including their relay dance which was super fun. I've watched so many of their performance videos I can even recognise them already. Watch me pick a bias next lol

Oh I've seen Monster already! It popped up on yt and idk why but I assumed it'd be a cover of EXO's Monster (like even the outfits in the thumbnail fit sjsjs). The chorus is a bop. Thanks for the other reccs! I've listened to a few and X-Ray is seriously good, I will listen to the rest soon

Nice to know I'm not the only one not particularly into this team. It's like they're giving try hard alpha male energy... might be the only group I'm not vibing with on the show.

Ngl it was bittersweet their unit didnt win in any category. Like sit down you're not all that.

Omg its hard to have a bias in DKB. I LOVE e-chan, heechan, lune, Yuku, gk ahhhh

I really live ghost9s energy!
