wow, if this is real i will 100% be tuning in. i mean i always wouldve tuned in because im lowkey a sucker for survival shows (although for some reason i can only stand mnet idk why). i also like the mentor lineup a lot! however im a bit scared because i havent been a big fan of most of teddys productions for the past 3-4 years. maybe he'll try something different with the iland girls? blackpink had some gems in their first three years (minus d4 and ktl...sorry lol).

i knew there was gonna be more trainees than the first season of iland, but 55 is a lot :0. then again, i did watch boys/girls planet. also who is jinyoung? i didnt wanna assume it was the idol bae jinyoung because i felt like he wouldve been listed as an idol mentor? but maybe its like when boa was the produce 101 mc? i think she was at least.

cant wait for 3 months!!! boys planet unveiled the signal song on december 29 and it aired on feb 2nd, so maybe it'd be release in mid march? unless they follow the iland format where an actual idol sang the theme (I forgot that happened lol) and it was released a week prior air date.

(side tangent, if the air date is real its gonna be emotional for me that kep1er, one of my ults will disband around that time, yet id be nervous over the final announcement a bit later D:)

MC is probably GOT7 Jinyoung

unless they will bring DEX on board, because his name is also Jinyoung

Quote from Vivi1388

he's in army, he enlisted 6 months ago

My bad then

Quote from Kim-Tan

Seems a bit random to have Kim Sihyeon, and not sure if Yena has what it takes to be a mentor just yet.

Yeji and Chaeryeong are mentoring SBS Universe Ticket

both Yena and Sihyeon were in Produce

IZ*ONE debuted in 2018, so earlier than ITZY

also Idol mentors usually are there to sit, comment, visit "class" and leave some suggestions

it's nothing hard, time flies fast in KPOP, we are already in 2024

Quote from Daisy_Queen

So what does a master producer do?

probably produces show theme song, debut main title, and makes creative decisions which songs to pick as future main titles etc.

MNet for sure knows that they need that 'Teddy Park' name on title track of first album released by group formed through I-LAND 2

Quote from Daisy_Queen

So no hosting?

I wanted to see him without the mask or hoodie

he will appear during the show for sure

don't worry about that
