GLOBAL RANKING SO FAR

people are making theories

The votes are so close. No big gaps.

I’m expecting TBZ to place last. Think people might be overestimating their fandom size. Maybe iKon but saw so many people who said they voted for them??

Also, during the filming, skz went on bubble, seemingly very happy, and emphasized suspiciously much that they ate chicken, so I believe there is a very high possibility they ranked first.

I would be very surprised if Ikon placed last, though... I expected their votes to receive a boost from 4th gen stans who refuse to vote for another 4th gen boy group.

I think that ranking is correct.

I'm sad for whoever gets last place though :((((

No one deserves lower ranks

I know. I feel so bad for Ateez and whoever is going to be on the bottom. I know some groups have to be on the bottom, but damn

I think It's maybe the order of the performance for the first round

I was so sad when I saw their #5, ngl.

Quote from xx-jenn-xx

Me too, i'm ugly crying right now...they deserved so much more

It hurts more knowing they were one of only 2 groups that only wanted to be #3 in the group voting instead of #1. So humble. Now it just breaks my heart.

the distortion with voting is because one people has to vote for 3 groups,

SKZ is def #1, i did expect ATEEZ rank to be low since i did expect only atinys to vote for them

also now think of it i also expect only ikonics voted for ikon, most other fandoms are i think not really familiar with ikon except Love Scenario and underestimate them so

i expect tbz to be #2

i couldn't watch today since i was buzy i have to watch it later on viki

I hope ikon won't place last. If basing on the first hour of youtube views, the level of anticipation for ikon is higher than other groups. I hope this reflects on the voting too.

I hope iKON won't be last, I have yet to watch today's ep but if they're last then I'm gonna be so sad, they deserve better

Not surprised if Ikon ranks last, they have the smallest fandom. While the GP will stream their songs, a smaller dedicated fandom (especially internationally) would show in the rankings.

Surprised with BTOB though. I was laughing when they kept saying they'd be 6th.

I think a lot of fandoms were voting strategically because of mnet extending the voting period which explains some of the surprising results (e.g. ateez being 5th)

I'm happy thinking skz is finally going to get attention in their country. But I don't like this ranking. All of these groups work their ass off. All of them deserve to be in the 1st place.

Woah I would never expect Ikon to place last. They’re easily the most popular and influencal group in kingdom. Maybe since they’ve been on kind of a long hiatus after b.i left. Anyways stray kids, the boyz and ikon had the best performance imo.

Someone does

I think iKON is going to be last

At first they didn't seem to have as much support in voting, but their fans seemed to pick up a lot momentum, at least from what I saw on Twitter.

Now I'm thinking it wasn't enough because of that interview.

How did ikon get last. They seem to be the most popular in Korea, which doesn’t seem that big, but still

International voting was included.

damn... i placed ateez at #2 for my rankings. to say i’m shocked would be an understatement

Quote from keaji

In your opinion someone deserves lower ranks from those groups?

Really?

Who and why?

Not there. Just ranking in general
