My mom, on the other hand (yes, I forced her to watch several performances), preferred Team A. Age does seem to matter, taste-wise maybe.<br /><br />And yessss. WinnerTV excites me. Been waiting for this for so long. =^ㅅ^=Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751650210025491773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811010193928089534.post-53150953337142581982013-12-11T21:03:12.349+08:002013-12-11T21:03:12.349+08:00Coming across this post has made me so happy, I be...Coming across this post has made me so happy, I became so obsessed with this show, I've practically forced everyone I know (even if they have no interest in Korean entertainment) to watch this. <br /><br />It won't have nearly as much drama (more fun hopefully), but apparently Winner TV is starting this Friday... I have way too many fangirl feels about this.<br /><br />It's funny that you say that you knew lots of people who favoured Team B (and I love them too, I do, especially Bobby), but Team A were definitely my favourite, they're just interesting- something different and fresh. Out of the people I've made watch, they've preferred Team A too. I wonder if age plays into this preference, because I've heard that international fans tend to favour Team B, but I'd also guess that international fans of K-Pop are statistically younger, or more accurately, the ones who are more technologically savvy/vocal on social media are younger, and therefore Team B would appeal to them more (even though the age differences between Team A & B members aren't that huge). Hmmm, this was a long comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811010193928089534.post-77225402604598078562013-10-30T18:18:06.609+08:002013-10-30T18:18:06.609+08:00Yeah exactly. It was perfect but nothing new. But ...Yeah exactly. It was perfect but nothing new. But they definitely improved in the composing, definitely. <br /><br />You're exactly right. I feel sorry for B because they were consistently better than A but still lost the battles, so it made them lose confidence in themselves even though they shouldn't have. They were clearly better then A in the first round but because they lost, they thought they weren't good enough, which wasn't true at all. Poor boys.<br /><br />There's a rumour that JYP might pick up some of Team B if YG decides to drop any of them. Should be interesting to see if that happens.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065928807649744906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811010193928089534.post-59887045754644890312013-10-29T18:04:49.624+08:002013-10-29T18:04:49.624+08:00To give credit to Team B, I thought their self-com...To give credit to Team B, I thought their self-composed song and arrangement and lyrics to "Just Another Boy" showed more maturity as compared to round 2's "Winnin'." While they do have more to learn, they've shown progress. The dance though was disappointing. It's not that they didn't deliver because as usual, they were on point. But I felt like I've already seen that routine. They didn't give us anything new. <br /><br />The mood between the two teams shifted, I think. Comparing to how Team A started out in the competition (desperate and anxious), and how they were during the finale (confident and out to have fun no matter the outcome). I think for Team B, it's the total opposite. They started the competition blazing and then they hit a slump and never fully got over it. <br /><br />Either way, can't wait for B.I and Bobby to debut. And possibly also Jinhwan and Junhoe.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751650210025491773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811010193928089534.post-79310807961887107972013-10-29T17:55:53.700+08:002013-10-29T17:55:53.700+08:00I wasn't quite crying but I was close. When B....I wasn't quite crying but I was close. When B.I was rapping and he was almost in tears, that's when I almost lost it. Because up until then, B.I had been the strong one. Out of all of the members, B.I was the one I least expected to cry. And his rap (although I couldn't understand the lyrics at the time) was so emotional! You could see the desperation in his face, in his voice. It actually felt like they'd already lost by that stage, with their performance. It was like they were saying goodbye.<br /><br />I thought the same thing when they announced the three categories. I was like 'well, A have this in the bag". And when I was watching it live, I kept on thinking "Come on B, you've gotta at least get the dance, you've gotta beat them in the dance", and then they didn't. And I just thought "god damn you!" Because, I was a B supporter from the beginning, and even though I knew A would win, I wanted B to at least be on par with them (considering B were usually better than them anyway), but I do think A beat them overall on the night.<br /><br />Saddest show ever. Never again am I watching anything like it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065928807649744906noreply@blogger.com
