Mnet should be banned from doing anymore “Global” survival shows after Girls Planet 999

    Cuz this was absolutely disgusting. Not to mention the constant malicious edits the Chinese girls got, to the point where Cai Bing got hate for something she didn’t even say


    But the way the C-girls had to cry together after being discriminated against by staff

    Between Produce 48 & Girls Planet 999, Mnet clearly doesn’t know how to treat foreigners with respect & just see’s a handful of them as money grabs for other markets


    I’d rather watch an MBC & SBS survival show with this concept, cuz maybe then they’d actually be treated as people and not just used for clout

    this was also in comment under posted by OP so

    I will copy / paste it here


    Some more info I catched:
    - They gathered and cried at the emergency staircase area
    - YWY/PD girls r more experienced, independent & dont need much staff helps so they helped the rest
    - One time, the make-up for C girls is so bad that XuZiyin re-did it for them herself.

    Xu Ziyin really was an assuring mother figure for the C-girls


    I lowkey think her “leaving because she was sick” was a cover up for Mnet kicking her out of the show cuz I’m sure she wasn’t having any of the BS they were throwing at her

    people have been trying to boycott/ban Mnet for a while especially after Produce scandal but here we...


    Mnet as strong as ever...


    how are the ratings for GP999?

    This show is already questionable since the beginning because Koreans were complaining that Mnet inviting Chinese people to their country. Maybe not debuting in this group is better for the Chinese contestants after all because I don't think this treatment will stop.

    0.63 for latest episode, a mild rise from 0.59 of previous episode. The peak is 0.83.

    Quote from selfmate

    is that good numbers or bad? I'm not that aware of the Korean rating systems...

    The numbers are bad - that is the percentage of the people watching something at that time watching this show live. So, at its best, out of 1,000 people in South Korean watching TV in some manner at the time the show was on, 8 of them were watching the show.

    Well, at this point, most of them won't have that issue....

    what's a "good" number then for comparison purposes..doesn't matter if it's drama or variety show or whatever

    that was exactly what I asked above thanks mate...it's always good to having other ratings for comparative purposes

    Pretty average for a non-Produce survival show. Most of them almost never pass 1.0%


    The ratings are higher than all of Kingdom, and the groups from that show is much bigger now, so this show has some success


    But yeah the hot show in Korea is Street Fighter Woman, which came on the same time GP999 started airing

    That is a very hard question to answer honestly. Whether something is on cable in South Korea or on one of the big channels matters. For example, the big 3 channels are KBS, MBC, and SBS. For them, anything in the low single digits is bad. MNET is a cable channel, so they can stand to have lower numbers than that, so for them single digits, like, say a 3, would be good, specially for this kind of show.

    Produce 48 was said to have pretty bad rating yet, its rating for the show was 1.3 at the lowest and 3.0 at the peak.

    Also, in comparison to Mnet's ongoing hottest show, Street Woman Fighter's rating for its latest episode is 2.4 or something.

    Someone did rough calculation and, based on the data from the latest vote announcement, they were roughly 50k - 60k Koreans voting.
