WTF is going on?????

An AI Producer?????

Is this the first step in how lazy the industry will become??????

What is the point of the show?????

I'm more curious about the first season

Who even was in it?

When exactly did my girls shine?

El7z up reunion with Yuki and Nana

I wish there was no AI involve because this all seems like a mess. So many of the NUGUs I root for are participating in this so I might check this out. Unsure if this is a good sign for Purple Kiss, Lightsum , WooAh, and Ichillin

I am surprised about Purple Kiss, they seem to be a bit above the other groups in terms of nuguness.

But maybe not.

And yes, where is season 1?

BTW, this could be a last chance for some of these groups, I can see some disbandments after the show is over.

This is the info I am finding

AI・DOL PROJECT (AI・DOL プロジェクト) was a music variety TV show starring Hello! Project. Together with the AI robot named Harobo-kun, the members experienced the…

Honestly, I was so angry when I read that, it's so fing disrespectful, but hell, I'm more disgusted by what RBW is doing. Why they sent Purple Kiss there? I HATE that shithole.

BTW, the fact that this crap can have a 2nd season proves how low the standards now in Kpop fandoms!

Well Damn

I like all 6 of these Groups..

Not sure how to feel about this

It seems this was the "first season":

https://mydramalist.com/759971-gone-pd

But it wasn't a survival show with idols, instead the contestants just talked and did the missions tasked by the AI

In each round of the show, participants will perform and be scored by the AI producer. Pitch, rhythm and choreography will be analyzed and members can be eliminated if not enough points accumulated to advance.

Let's be realistic, the reason these groups are in this show is because they have small fandoms, or at least very low General public recognition.

Okay, but that doesn't mean deserve to be called flops on live television. I mean, that's what they do.

I honestly don't get how these agencies allowing this, but RBW can't surprise me anymore. MAMAMOO built that company, and they don't give a damn about them either, so I'm not surprised they don't care about Purple Kiss either.

Debut date and when their 7 year contract should be up.

You know what is worse than being in this show as a group that may be down to their last chance.

Not being invited to the show.

for example Secret number.

Some fans on twitter are talking about them being done and the announcement is coming
