ok ok breaking out my other emails for voting... can't resist putting in a few votes for v16 Junhyeop... love his deeper voice, it gives me a romantic, disney prince vibe ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿซ

edit: v16 turned out to be Kim Seongjeong!

~ 231229 ~ kpop, build up

Ok for my first vote I'm gonna go with:

  • #6 Inseong ๐Ÿ’•
  • #4 Sunyoul - love the passion in his voice, good performance
  • #19 DKZ Mingyu - I really love his voice
  • #23 Newkidd Minwook - the way he sings reminds me of Yeonho ๐Ÿ’—

edit: v19 turned out to be Lee Gwangseok and v23 is Yoon Inhwan!

shouldn't Hyunjong be in there somewhere? else why did he join KNK recently? I thought it was for this ๐Ÿ˜‚ and I also wonder about 7OC Younghoon - it's not likely but he had a really good voice, anyway I wish he was here. And what about VAV? They have some good vocals, but surely they would have been recognized. Oh well, I really can't guess anyone except Inseong haha

Mnet has released 40 minute-long clips of the contestants for Build Up! Only their silhouettes are shown, but most people have been recognized. Surprisingly quite a few haven't. Also suprising is at least 4 people from Peak Time (guess the publicity from that wasn't enough? lol). But yeah there are some great voices here, it will be a real vocal showdown exploding head with headphones

contestants recognized so far

edit: the guesses for # 7,8,9,14,16,19,21 were all wrong lol - check the Build Up page for the full list

it's very fast paced, quite a wild ride lol - I'm liking it so far though, it's pretty cool

~ 231218 ~ cdrama

so the hosts/mentors for Build Up have been announced... it's funny that Eunkwang was a contestant on a survival show himself recently... hope some of the boys on this show will achieve the same

Q's latest Instagram post - so aesthetic โค๏ธ
The bunny ears made me smile *^^*

~ 231210 ~ kpop, the boyz
tldr: I dreamed that Lan Zhan was a girl and we were lesbians?? (I've been watching The Untamed a lot lately haha)

So my brother (unlike real life) was having a hard time making friends and our mom was on his ass to make friends so he decided to have a party. I think he advertised it on craigslist or something and random people started showing up. The first guy who showed up was sketchy and my other brother grabbed his shirt and told him to beat it. I thought that was overly rude but then some other weird insane lady showed up and I was suddenly ok with being rude because it was obviously going to be necessary. Some more guys showed up who were chill and my brothers let them in. Then a girl showed up who was bratty/entitled, and while I was still talking to her Lan Zhan showed up. I threw them both down the stairs. The other girl was really mad, but Lan Zhan laughed and acted like it was a game to get past me. When I saw Lan Zhan's smile, I thought Lan Zhan was really pretty, and I wanted "her" to stay, actually. So then our physical struggling became... romantic?? haha...

There was a lot more stuff that is kinda muddled...

There was some kind of situation where we had to ambush/defeat some bad people/haters? I think we were planning this before the party, but it turned out to be easy with our new friend group

There were also several scenes of hanging out/talking/making plans with our new friends. There was another girl who became my friend, and I think she was different from the formerly bratty one but not sure. I remember holding hands with Lan Zhan while walking around ๐Ÿ’•

Inseong says his life these days is sing - sleep - sing - sleep ๐Ÿฅบ he's working really hard, I guess he and Hyunjong are gonna go compete on Build Up then. I think it'll be good for them to get some visibility, though looking at the rumored groups, I like many of them and don't want any members to be taken away for a project group ๐Ÿ˜ญ A show with all of them will be great though - the next Mixnine???
