Korean netizens first reaction to GP999 interim ranking on theqoo (it's what you think and worse)

8 Koreans 1 Cup

Yeah not stanning this group if this is the demographic they’ll cater to

I'm not interested in this group anymore but will watch the last ep just for fun and to watch the chinaboos' asses burn.

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

I feel like these people in particular are only rooting for them because they're Korean. Do they even know most of the girls' names and their talents?

I wouldn’t even be surprised if they didn’t know that basic info, let alone would I trust they’d actually support this group once they debut

And this is a bad look if they ever plan on debuting in Japan, because they’ll be looked at as the K-nationalist group

They want other fromis that will tank

The Chinese and Japanese members could at least bring sales, what are the rest gonna do

This is too much nationalism. Fck em

It sucks how this nationalistic thinking is ruining the dreams of some talented girls!!!!

Aren't we all humans BROTHERS ANS SISTERS REGARDLESS OUR NATIONALITY?????

My lip is bleeding ...

I haven't watched a single episode of this but I wonder why would you even make a show like that just to end up with only 1 foreigner? It's like they are trying to prove they are "superior" or sth.

When we were saying on Friday and Saturday to vote only C and J people jumped in with pitchforks saying that it should be a fair vote and they should vote for their faves.

This is what happens when you play fair and your vote means 1/8th of another who doesn't play fair.

4real, the usual anti “forced” diversity stans went on a rant about how we shouldn’t vote based off nationality…. Meanwhile Koreans are voting for K-girls based off nationality. At least we want diversity, they straight up are praying for K09

When people get turned off because A. Fan favorites didn’t make it & B. The multinational concept didn’t live up, they’ll have only themselves to blame

Hope these nationalist Knetz are happy losing the japanese, chinese and international market.

I saw a post from a Knetz saying “Vote for K09”

Like sis…. Her name is Bora. Sad thing is they probably didn’t even know that cuz they only care about having a whole Korean group

yeah dont vote for your faves okay?

vote for girls with other nationality cause clearly thats above the girls as individuals

but I am not surprised by how some of you think..

I bet these people didnt even watch the show....

I knew this would happen because making votings restricted will never give true figures.. but its good these ranks are released now so everyone gets a check and starts voting for their faves more..

At this rate if Koreans can vote for K-girls solely based off nationality, we mind as well vote for C&J girls based off nationality too. At least we want diversity

Even with diversity aside, literal individual fan favorites are ranking below girls who depended on Planet Passes to advance

Quote from icyruios

Hope that if Xiaorina don't get through HYBE be signing them and debuting them in their NGG or something

If Hybe does this, i will be convinced that they worked out a backroom deal with Msnake and Xiaorina's management to have them eliminated from GP999 so they would be free to join Hybe.

Quote from alexS

I was right to be calous and suspect that Knets will only vote for the K girls.

But go ahead, do whatever you want, it's not like I can vote for you.

knets and some of you are the different sides of the same coin...

its kinda funny

ofc I am gonna vote for the girls I like and so should you and all others.. but imagine going on to advise other people to prioritize voting for some trainees of certain nationalities leaving out their faves lol just because you feel nationalities should play a role in this ..

just as bad as knets I would say.. just in a opposite direction

well lets hope all our faves girls make it..

many people are gonna end up disappointed anyways thats how survivals always end.. produce has taught me to never believe any of it till the end

I'm too lazy to look it up but can you summarize how the voting will work for this final round? I know it was super complicated in the earlier rounds but i remember reading something about how the J/C trainees might end up getting screwed in the final round because the voting rules would be different.

Does every voter get one vote, regardless of the nationality of the voter? Or is it more complicated than this?

At this rate just take #10-18, then add Doah, Jia, & Yeyoung to the lineup & you got a powerful 12 member GG

And give them to HYBE

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

Way to miss the mark and oversimplify the issue that all of the people in the original comment section are only voting for Korean trainees because they're Korean and they don't want anyone else to make it into the show and have proven time and time again with things they say that they don't even know some of the girls they're voting for's names

ofc and international fans doing the opposite just makes them as bad as knets.. making agendas on voting aint gonna help.. but voting for you fave regularly will... unless mnet rigs ofc

but again yeah people will end up disappointed anyways no matter how it ends later

Quote from alexS

Cool, opinion noted and ignored. Have fun in life

doing that~~ you too

hypocrites everywhere XD

Sure thing, the current voting system is 1 pick regardless of nationality. The voting system is 50% Korean & 50% International votes. Despite there technically being more international votes, Korea still has their half say so even a small minority of them have an effect on the lineup

Which is why now we got 8/9 Koreans in the top 9, despite how only half of them are actually popular as a whole

Quote from icyruios

I hope they adopt Xu Ziyin as well if it happens

Xu Ziyin for ultimate leader & main vocal. I approve

Please vote for SHEN XIAOTING everyone

All of these K-Netizens saying good better buy 100000x the albums to make up for the loss that'll happen in the other markets.

If ya'll want your 9 korean member group that's all you and that's fine but some of us do like the other non-Korean trainees like Hikaru and Mashiro and not just because they're not Korean.

My fave is Korean and didn't make it, so I will keep voting for her.

C-Pop and J-Pop exist. The alphabet groups exist for J trainees, and C trainees have a domestic market of 1.4B people. No one forced them to try out for a pop group in another country.

Funny considering Kpop groups go to Japan & China to make a good chunk of their income. I don’t see Cpop or Jpop groups needing to travel abroad

So you can have a seat with the xenophobia troll

Quote from alexS

At this point, I'm so upset that I don't even want Xiao Ting and Yurina in that group.

They should get signed by another company since they will automatically bring a huge international following.

Yuehua for example would be a good place for them. They could bring a few other girls, Cai Bing, Mashiro.

Put in a 3 Korean trainees and you got a 7 member group that will rule Japan and China and also do really well internationally.

This is what I was thinking. I'd rather the J and C trainees debut in a different group than hoping them to debut in this GP999 group.
