Jung Chanwoo revealed to be the 6th member of Ikon... who will be the last member?


Source: OSEN via Naver

1. [+3723, -222]  My eyes are deceiving me... right?

2. [+3076, -348]  It's going to be Donghyuk!!!!!!!!!!

3. [+2802, -303]  Ah... ah... Donghyuk ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

4. [+3629, -1184]  Ikon has made a mistake the moment they confirmed Jung Chanwoo...  They picked a kid who doesn't have any outstanding qualities in either visuals, talent, stage presence, or music colour...  Ah... Ikon... I could've actually been a big fan of them...

5. [+2413, -340]  It's got to be our Donghyuk...

6. [+1223, -130]  Yang Hongseok was such a victim to their evil editing... ㅜㅜ

7. [+1216, -199]  I'm not too fond of him... he'd be better off continuing in his acting career ㅋㅋ The way he looks and his style just doesn't fit with Ikon

8. [+1121, -116]  It's probably going to be Donghyuk... ah... Hongseok... thank you for working hard until the very end and I'm really sorry ㅠㅠ I hope you debut somewhere else and shine bright as an artist... 

9. [+1125, -235]  Why Jung Chanwoo, seriously?  He'll probably quit after like 2 years to go into acting 

10. [+1046, -189]  Tomorrow it's going to be Kim Donghyuk!  It's a shame that Yang Hongseok won't make it but YG can't possibly throw Donghyuk away.  Be prepared for a fight if you throw away Donghyuk.

11. [+984, -193]  They made a mistake in bringing Jung Chanwoo in... didn't they know that it'd be better to put Hongseok in with Ikon?

Sigh I wanted Hongseok not ChanWoo. He should just continue being an actor.

Sigh Hongseok would've been better. Chanwoo should've just continued as an actor, he almost useless except for his popularity.

V4I7P8 said...

Mark my words. Chanwoo's gotta be the most hated member from now on.

Anyway, congrats Chanwoo! Prove them wrong.

Kaila said...

This is really sad. I was expecting our Dong to be the 6th but sigh.... Lol, team B fans won't let the matter go if YG doesn't debut Donghyuk. So it is so obvious 7th gonna be Donghyuk.

PS: Yes it is so obvious that Chan woo is the one who is gonna debut in iKON from the first EP but I was still hoping that it will be Hong or Jin. Sigh

Maha said...

chanwoo as the 6th member is just a big ass joke, he will just be burried by the others

December said...

Still praying for OT9, or at least OT8 with JinHyung :((

And Chanwoo, I don't know whether shoud I feel happy or feel bad for him. He's also a victim of YG manipulation too :( Anyway, I hope he can improve much much more and contribute more to iKON success.

Ri said...

IN YANG HONGSEOK WE BELIEVED

- I voted for him and im proud that i voted him, even if he doesn't make it

howandever8 said...

Chanwoo is cute but that's about it. His talent is below average compared to the rest of the group. Not hating on him but this team pretty much could do without him.

I feel bad for Hongseok, he had something Team B really needed, strong vocals, and his vocals worked perfectly well with Junhoe's.

Donghyuk deserves the last spot in this team. He's more than ready for debut and his performances during M&M the past few weeks have proved that.

ashie said...

YG trying to create suspence.. Obviously didn't want the fans and original team b guys to be too comfortable..

howandever8 said...

What was the point of this stupid show if you're going to debut the original Team B plus an extra member who adds absolutely nothing to the group??
God damn it YG, since when did you stop considering actual TALENT when forming your groups???

Yes I'm mad.

SPEAK DA TRUTH BRO.

Kaa said...

Why no one mention Jinhyeong here

deix said...

It's a shame that till the end Jinhyung is still overshadowed and barely gets recognition for his efforts as well.

And it's sad that Donghyuk's self-esteem has to be further walked on just so YG could achieve creating a buzz for the announcement of the final member.

As for Chanwoo, I have to admit that I'm still iffy with the idea of him being chosen OVER the other 2 newbies, but still CONGRATULATIONS. He's a nice kid and does work hard. HOPEFULLY, with time and great effort in training, he'll improve drastically (like Yoyo did).

Amanda Rachel said...

Congrats Chanwoo!!! Final decision had been made. Please open ur hearts & arms to welcome the new maknae of iKON & new member of YG Family. Don't be so cruel towards him. (At first, I also want Jin&Seok but only one place left now & I'm almost sure who is the 7th member). I'm sure he's gonna improve when iKON debut. &remember he is new learner than OT6 but improve & will still improve so much with his diligence. Ps:- Now I've seen some of iKON fans whose used to said WINNER fans WHINING learn the ART of WHINING as well. Well the FACT, (for who don't know) YG FAMILY fans always WHINING & we whine to the right place that is YG not to SM / JYP / CUBE or etc. I shall say Welcome to the WHINING FAMILY.

soluizb said...

Nobody gave a shit about jinhyeong

naph said...

I'm quite sure that Donghyuk will be the last member. YG just created unnecessary dramatic event for team B fans. I feel sad that Hongseok couldn't make it. I wish him success in the better place. He has potential... Chanwoo needs to prove a lot more that he is really needed in iKon. I don't see his potential as a singer. I'm quite surprised that many people really want him to debut despite his lack.

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

What other members have done to deserve this line up? Because of this deadweight, the whole group will get dragged and mocked for being a chipmunk group. Not to forget that they gonna split their income with one more person who currently brings nothing to the table.


I'll still follow iKON but I guess it would be hard for me to stan them hard knowing that the whole team could be more badass, could be more perfect.
I've expressed my feel, now his stans please come at me.

nothingonyou123 said...

Why him? Why? Why?

kjn said...

he's a good kid but tbh --> "[+1125, -235] Why Jung Chanwoo, seriously? He'll probably quit after like 2 years to go into acting"

Eman Said Ahmad said...

Sorry but I can't with a group with so many useless members who almost all have the same fucking voice tones ! I love my ears to much to torture it .
Tomorrow better be Hongseok enough with all the hate hong got from the stupid fan girls don't even dare YG .
And to all the stupid B-golds on twitter ur group is a flop and that's thanks to you ain't even worth compering to Winner at this point
#Bobbysoloplz .

chiey said...

Jinhyeong and hongseok duo please i love this two boys

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

and his popularity mostly come from the OT6 fans. Most of the reaction when this result is announced is 'Where is Donghyuk?','Why CW before Donghyuk?', 'Fuck you YG,give me OT6'


Now people just realize that most OT6 fans picked him not because they really stan him but because they thought their oppars get along with this kid the most on screen. Once their OT6 dream was broken down, they wont be the same towards him.

abdullah .san said...

what a joke U_U

macy_12 said...

at this point idk who the 7th will really be. I'm 75% sure it's Dongyuk but the Chinese advancement & desperation for another good vocalist gives me hopes that HongSeok may still have a chance.
If HongSeok doesnt get in, i hope YG has plans of keeping him & letting him debut as a soloist. he seems to have already gather quite a following past few days so i wouldn't be too surprised. YG never keeps his words so i hope he continues it.


I think the real reason to Chanwoo's addition is due to his popularity. People will be screaming rigged & YG would lose its creds w/fans if he mysteriously does not get in. Chanwoo is young & adorable, i'll give him a chance to improve. Also w/his acting resume, he can go into acting to promote the iKON name to an even bigger audience.
Jinheyong….. the scandal really hurt him, in or not, i hope YG keeps him & lets him grow. he's young enough to join a new YG group in the future.

sunniidays said...

I gave a shit. I wish I had given him all my shits sooner. :'( You deserved better. So did Hongseok.

deix said...

this reality is so sad.

Logan Brooklyn Fayssal said...

Yeah jinyeong deserve to be in ikon too I'm very sad

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

as his fans wish because they say he 'blend in well'.. In a strong group with a lot of individual stans, you gotta stand out on your own.

Ninni said...

LOL the way YG revealing the member is exactly same as my prediction
1st june
2nd yoyo
3rd new traine
4th dong (or 0.00009% chance other new trainee)


they put dong for last just to increase the tension of OT6 fans..


i dont hate chanwoo, but i prefer hongseok more...
not gonna say farewell to hongseok yet untill they reveal the last member...
;__;

"[+1125, -235] Why Jung Chanwoo, seriously? He'll probably quit after like 2 years to go into acting"



>.> u really know nothing about YG don't you? it took years for TOP to go acting & look at Dara it has been 5 years but still none. YG is a music based entertainment company, they're not like SM or JYP.

deix said...

the only thread of hope I'm clinging to is for chanwoo to MIRACULOUSLY drastically improve in the VERY SHORT span of training time he has before debut. And I'm not completely confident about said hope. T_T

trouble said...

Those who are talking craps about Chanwoo, mark my words. Chanwoo's going to be BIG someday & y'all are going to eat your words.

june said...

why people bash him so hard? He is just 16, rmb Junhoe failed to JYP 3 times but now he is so good. Maybe YG saw the potential of Chanwoo? I think he has good eyes than anybody here

nugu said...

Jinhyeong surely deserves more attention, he's more talented than HongSeok and ChanWoo. I'm happy that he won't be an iKON member if nobody cares about him.
I don't like Chanwoo but I'm supporting DongHyuk and iKON btw..

Jinhyeong figting!!! I hope to see you soon again..

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

It would be wiser to choose Jinhyeong as he would be the fastest to catch up to them. His good voice is already there, his dancing is the best among 3 newbies, he was trained in musical singing. All he needs is to learn how to command the stage and perform on bigger stage, then he is ready to debut.


But YG just make a dumb move. Guess he isnt that genius like I used to compliment him.

dthh said...

Fans & YG made a biggest mistake of their life. I'm not anti ChanWoo but JinHyeong and HongSeok ways more deserved to be in IKon than this kid. Feel like they don't even watch the lastest episode ><.

trouble said...

I didn't know y'all can predict the future now, you are not even giving that 15 yr old kid a chance to prove himself. Y'all are going to eat your words someday.

barbie said...

can't agree with you more

muggledore said...

Chanwoo will forever be my favorite adorable puppy but the cuteness quota in iKon is already full to the brim and it saddens me that I can't really distinguish his voice among the performers on the final performance :(

However, he is young. He will improve. But then, what the hell is the purpose of Mix&Match if not to strengthen their vocal line? *sigh*

My heart goes out to Jinhyung and Hongseok.I hope they find their place in this industry.

And Donghyuk? He will be our #ikon7thmember .

Amanda Rachel said...

Once YG give iKON TV or iKON debut with awesome song, I believe the hate he gets will decrease.

kjn said...

u know this is just bullshit when you know donghyuk won over chanwoo in all 3 fanmeetings lol

muggledore said...

He stole my heart during that Long Time No See performance. It hurts to think I can no longer hear him sing that song live.

muggledore said...

What was the point of Mix&Match?
What?

bee. said...

UGH THANK YOU!

In the past, people used to say the same about Donghyuk and Yunhyeong (even Junhwe) now look at them. They've improved sooooo much in short amount of time.

Tomorrow is gonna be Donghyuk. Fans already saw OT6 + Chanwoo back at the training center to practice.

I voted for Chanwoo and I'm happy for him. I also wish Jinhyeong and Hongseok well. I believe they will become successful one day.

trouble said...

what? it's a competition and Chanwoo won, accept it!

kjn said...

well bc he acted before and he originally wanted to be an actor so who knows...

shinwonhoar said...

Long Time No See would never be the same again without him...

jonginbitch said...

jinhyeong-ah i am sorry T T i am still gonna wait for your debut. T T

untitled said...

Trust me, on AKP & Youtube & all over SNS people are crying for him. He's the most suited candidate but he's just unlucky :(((

untitled said...

Visit AKP, every body asking for Jinhyung there. A LOT of ppl supporting Jinhyung :)

9nuna said...

My timeline become a mess after this announcement.
I can't believe they let donghyuk bellow chanwoo
I still believe donghyuk can make it
Also even today some people may hate him, but people may forget about that someday.
Thought I still cant attached by chanwoo charm. Coz for me donghyuk still better than him.

shinwonhoar said...

yes. also, one can't deny that chanwoo "blends in" too much in the group to the point of getting unnoticed or taken for granted in performances (except on his lucky days which aren't common)



he totally seemed like an extra in let's say "let's get it started" and "long time no see" he def should break the prejudice about him soon or he'd forever stay as the "maknae meant for acting only"

Gdi*k said...

What the point of this fucking show now? Wtf? wth?

I thought YGE would change their fucking mind and make a plotwist but now..

Fuck you YGE fuck you delusional Ikon OT6fans Fuckyouuu Look what you have done.

My dream to witness an amazing group to rise is fade away now.

What a joke.. 7members group who have three members with the same voices. Can't disgust who is who..

I'm so disappointed really. I should have fucking known well enough that you ain't playing when you gave the other two newbies no screentime. I should have known. Goodluck Hongseok and Jinhyeong.

trouble said...

If he wants to be an actor then shouldn't have entered YG Entertainment. He knows YG is a music based company, he loves to sing & dance, it's his dream to perform for his fans someday that's why he auditioned and got in.

shinwonhoar said...

I am still devastated. How could they deny his slayage during the finals? This boy totally slaaaaaaayed

trouble said...

i mean if he wants to act

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

leave the acting job to YOYO. Dude always dream that he could be an actor somedays lol but at least he has started to stand out in their performance.

trouble said...

cursing won't change anything, you know it's a 'competition' you know they will base it on the 'fanvotes' then you should have worked harder making lots of accounts/attending their fanmeetings etc and vote for your bias

Gdi*k said...

#bye

angelin said...

Nope. Of course he will get big but he still less talent in music.

trouble said...

right. coz you know what will happen in the future, okay.

angelin said...

Yeah the votes because he get more screen time than others. Dun worry karma is a bitch

trouble said...

& why would he get hit by karma when he did nothing at all?

Amanda Rachel said...

LOL you forgot YG words in M&M "It doesn't matter whether you can sing well or not".

deix said...

I got his song parts on replay rn. Damn, letting him go was one of the most idiotic decisions YG made this year.



I was really hoping he'd get a chance and have YG change his mind, seeing that Japanese votes loved him. Like duh, yg, Japan is one of your biggest moneymakers (who won't care about rumors even), why not consider listening to them?

myopinion said...

honestly i am very interested with the show but stop watching it until ep4, cuz i know this is gonna happen. the show is for the OT6 fans, really. The other two newbies is just, how should i say...to make show bit more interesting (?). anyway, they've got exposure and fanbase, i will look forward to those two. they have good future stored ahead of em!

Captain said...

Calm down.

V4I7P8 said...

That's what people said about Yunhyung and Donghyuk back in WIN; look at where they are now. I will still give the boy a chance, he deserves it. It's not like YG just put him in the team. The public had a say. Arguably, he's the most popular among the new ones.

Stardust said...

Jinhyung, I'm bawling so much cos I don't think you have a chance now ..
Poor soul, sorry I didn't vote enough for you ..

Kidari said...

I can't express my disapointment enough with the unfair process to choose not the best for ikon but based on looks and likeability instead of actual talent. I am disapointed in the fandom for voting him in, yg for promoting him beyond the fact that the other two were way better. IF you talk about disbandement or reagement it should be in the best interest of the group overall. If your company is about talent, it's obvious that Hongseok and Jinhyun should be in instead of him.

shinwonhoar said...

I'd disagree with your first statement. Both Yunhyeong and Donghyuk shined in their dance stages, but not as much as they are doing now. On the other hand, Chanwoo doesn't excel in either singing or dancing. He's so-so for both aspects tbh. Nevertheless, I agree that he deserves a chance.


Also, I think the M&M editing is responsible for his popularity. Besides, the baseless rumors pulled both Jinhyung and Hongseok down. They didn't have the chance to redeem themselves until it was too late. The public were already set on voting for Chanwoo. (Not that I'm calling them out for it, though. To each his own.)

はじめましてよろしくお願いします said...

if your favorite doesn't make it just ask him to join your company.

qwertyuiop said...

It makes me wonder, what if Donghyuk really can't make it...?

V4I7P8 said...

For Donghyuk, yeah he was praised for his dancing skills but Yunhyung was called out for not dancing well compared to the other members. I've seen the comments on articles about Team B, tweets and tumblr posts and the general consensus is that the 2 of them are way below than the others. After the finale, I even remember people accepting that one of them would be dropped before debuting.

Out of all the trainees, I think Chanwoo is the best dancer and has the best stage prescence. Watch a fancam of their All of Me dance and you can see that Chanwoo improved A LOT.

I agree with you on your last paragraph. The show is edited to make Chanwoo more likeable than the two and it worked really well. When I was streaming episode 8 on naver, almost all of the comments were about Chanwoo. But you can't deny that he has that charm. Korea loves that innocent image Chanwoo has.

ykrunkg said...

#JUSTICEFORJINHYEONG...he was honestly the best fit for iKon image and vocal wise even tho I like Hongseok. Those crazy OT6 fans who made those rumor literally fucked him over smfh

merp said...

To be honest, I blame the netizen. They were the ones who were bad-mouthing Hongseok and then changed opinions at the very last moment. It's their fault for being too late. I was for Chanwoo and Hongseok since the very beginning (I didn't mind which one of the two got to join iKON) and voted for both, though.

panshel said...

Aaaaand my dreams have been dashed. I'm not worried at all about DongHyuk; 110% he will be the final member, but I was hoping against hope ChanWoo will not make it. He is the last thing iKON needs. YG made a huge mistake.

merp said...

Donghyuk and Yunhyeong were already training for a while when WIN started. Donghyuk already had dance skills even before he started training under YG, only Yunhyeong learned it within his period as a YG trainee (which was longer than Donghyuk anyway). Chanwoo only trained for 2 months before Mix & Match started and he had never tried either singing or dancing. That's why he started training. It's not comparable. But I do believe that Chanwoo will improve.

merp said...

I love how you're so positive about the situation. I'm really happy for Chanwoo as well (even though I might have hoped that Hongseok would be the one)! The people hating on Chanwoo really bother me a lot... I wish I could keep my head up like you do. Really, thank you for the positive comment about Chanwoo <3

merp said...

I really really really really really love you for this comment. Positive comments like these make my day. Enough with the hate, congratulate the kid and wish him the best. He's still young, he has plenty of time to improve himself <3

kkmt_ent said...

Oh no.. what the hell just happened? Chanwoo is in? Homaigod.. Although i have predicted ot6+chanwoo will happen, im still disappointed.

Big congratulations to YG and Mnet because their evil editing and scheme to push for ot6+chanwoo has been successfully accomplished.

Im sorry to say, I can no longer support IKON because to me, good vocalist lineup is super important. And i can't agree more that IKON is now officially double B n chipmunks ft junhoe.

Im still so disappointed altho i already expect this to happen. Anyhow, all the best to hongseok and jinhyeong. Hope to see the two debut in the future.

And finally, bye2 IKON. Im sorry i cannot support IKON anymore.. and yes, Im leaving the fandom.. Adios...

#justiceforhongseok #justiceforjinhyeong

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

which justify that Team B should've just debuted as OT6 instead of adding one new extra who still lacks a lot compared to them and needs time to improve. Team B was already well-liked, it's not like they cant get popularity so they've to bring one new cute innocent aegyo whatsoever member to get them popular. Team B was popular because of Double B in the first place.

V4I7P8 said...

To be honest, I was rooting for Jinhyung but I'm alright with Chanwoo being confirmed. I understand them being upset because Chanwoo is obviously the least talented one vocally but people need to remember that is not the sole requirement in being a member of a group. If YG had always prioritize innate talent over anything else, why would he let Kim Boa from SPICA go?

I'm positive that Chanwoo will prove his worth in the group soon. Seungri, Dara and Jinwoo did; he will too.

V4I7P8 said...

I also wanted Team B to just debut without member changes but that's not YG wanted and the only thing I can do now is appreciate the new one and continue on supporting them.

sam said...

Tbh were all too late in rooting for hongseok Everybody wanted Chan woo to begin with they got Chan woo in the end

DaniRiot said...

Please Hongseok T^T I hope he can at least debut somewhere else if he doesn't make the cut ;~;

VIP_RockWithMe said...

People saying fans should be considerate because Chanwoo is nice are making me nuts... Why? Im pretty sure the others are nice too, the only thing the kids will bring in to the table is that he's nice? if he focuses more on acting in ten future what does that make the 3 years of training and 2-3 survival shows the others had to go through. Tbh, all i see in him is a kid getting a free ride to fame. Perfect, he'll blend in so well i probably wont notice him, we're back to the beginning, when this team only had 6 people

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

That's why some of the inetizens said he's very selfish if he reallu aims to use iKON popularity to build his acting career.There's a reason why people are so skeptical about his interest in music, even B,I questioned his priority/interest in music in day1.Comparing to CW, the other 2 newbies both gave up their musical training/university to join this show and they have some background related to music so there arent much doubt on their passion in music.
So what he's being nice? His lacks of skills and his priority in acting(assumption) wouldnt do good for iKON.
All of this tiring shits bring no benefit to the group smh, might as well just debut as 6 and give us iKONTV instead of this scripted survival show.

evelyn said...

I honestly believe that HongSeok will be better off in another company with another group.

Lumiere said...

Yg was supposed to fix the vocals but all he managed was to add dead weight. Instead of this he should have let the initial team.They gained nothing, just alienated fans and another member to share their profits with.

angelin said...

To YG.

angelin said...

And the competition is not fair

Lumiere said...

and u can? contradicting much?

Lumiere said...

my favorite one :(

Lumiere said...

saying the exact same thing about Donghyuk??? And Yunhyung was pretty much the lesser evil

Riyadh Prawiryo Att said...

I hope the last member is Yang hongseok.

Anon. said...

That was/is my biggest problem with the group. Same voice tones, a tone I don't really enjoy at that. And to think, the direction they are going is hip hop. Sigh, I could have stanned this group but man, they are making it hard. Yes to #Bobbysoloplz though, that is my boy.

anticlimatic21833 said...

my major gripe with the kpop industry these days was how people stop caring about talent and put more focus on looks and "stage presence". I respected yg cause they were one of the few companies that focus on talent and music but this decision and choice pretty much sums up my major problems with kpop and intense fangirlism these days.... welp

sasuke-kun pls die said...

GDI!!!!! If this was going to happen OT6 could've proceeded in debuting as iKon to at least save the group from another dead weight. Goddamnit this is so dumb!!! Have nothing against Chanwoo btw, he is cute but THIS IS SO DUMB!!!!

sasuke-kun pls die said...

Any additional member/s would have been the most hated member, )let's face it (Chanwoo getting more hate now because most of us know he is useless for the team and he doesn't deserve to be in it)

And tbh i still see Donghyuk as a dead weight, the level of improvement between him and Yunhyeong are clearly different. I would've been okay with one dead weight member but now there's two again.

Higurashi said...

I'm sorry we couldn't make you debut, Hongseok T__T Your hard work will definitely pay off in the future!

blackjack_vip said...

hongseok ah...i am sorry...voted for you though.

kelly said...

One day i hope you choke on all the crap you talk.

Wendy Hia said...

So happy.. Enough said

kelly said...

Yes, sit down all of you!

loirichi said...

chances are veeeery low but im still hoping for Hongseok.

chyeah said...

Lmao everyone suddenly protecting hongseok tho. Fake ass bitches. Where the fuck where all of u when hongseok needed the votes? [Ps this is not directed to you, im just made that hongseok isnt a member]

Regina_George said...

Probably why YG decided to debut Ikon in China... tsk tsk.

kelly said...

this. tbh.

hyunjungsh said...

blame mnet's shitty editing. they never focused on jinhyeong or hongseok from the start. ot6 fans spread rumors about jinhyeong being an iljin + hongseok is showed as an arrogant, hard headed, unfriendly new trainees just add oil to the fire. while chanwoo is this cute kid with nice manner and a perfect maknae material that the hyungs love.

hyunjungsh said...

i feel really sorry for jin and hong, i hope they pull a hyunseung
someday. and i honestly lost my interest in ikon too just after chanwoo
confirmed as a member. i don't wanna jump on the hate bandwagon even more so i decided to just
leave the fandom. #bobbyorjunhoesolopls

Hurrdurr said...

Well, he made it up to the public to decide by voting. He can't take back his words now can he?

hyunjungsh said...

yeah so what's the point of adding one more average singer they already have 3.

Morris said...

Yeah more like blend in well = being camoflagued behind the shadows of other ikon member.

Ghade said...

The point of the show. Team B exposure and indeed they nailed it. They were able to attract new fans like me. I only start to know them through M&M and without this show I would never have known them. NOw I dont simply like them I really love them OT6. :)

Winnie said...

Ok just leave, bye you!

Roowdiinaa Ruubyooow said...

To promote Chanwoo lol

Ghade said...

At first I like Chanwoo but during solo interview during MixandMatch I felt that he was not so passionate in wanting to join (He JUST simplyvwant to win) ikon unlike Jinhyeong whom you could feel his sincerity. Also I dont if it just on the translation, Chanwoo said that his dream become more CLEAR when he saw OT6 perform and again unlike Jinhyeong., Jinhyeong is really sure that he wants to be an iKon member and to be pqrt of YG family concert. And then lastly Ive noticed that Chanwoo seems just to be keen on joining iKon when he witnessed how popular iKon as a group in their international fan meeting. Well it is just my mere observations after rewatching MIx and Match for the nth time.

Yes I wish. I rather to choke on with my own words than to see my fav group getting dragged and bashed everywhere :)

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

Well at least Dong offers something, his dancing is something and he is not that dependent on Kim trio.Meanwhile the new extra one....

ykrunkg said...

no one is asking you to stan them and no one is asking you to listen to them let alone care about them

ykrunkg said...

Some people are kind of overreacting lmao why are y'all already saying iKon's a flop just because of their vocal line, Jinhwan-Yunhyeong-Junhoe are all fine it's just Donghyuk and Chanwoo that's kind of iffy...Chanwoo was in Long Time No See and it was good song no lie


Imma sit here and watch you guys make a 360° turn when they release their single

Roowdiinaa Ruubyooow said...

Sorry. You're a fan too, you would feel the same way if your fave isn't in

Moe said...

my timeline full of BTeam fan's mourning xD
sorry, but for me this is funny xD

#justiceforhongseok ♡

Fadiah Zahrina said...

I cant agree more with you. "Blending" in his case (in my opinion) where he isnt almost standing out. He is overshadowed with ot6. And i cant imagine how ikon's future will be.... o hate here. It's just my opinion after 8 episodes watching m&m...

And i havent seen any single photos of chanwoo with other member. Anyone? I only saw hongseok with bobby and jin with junhoe in the beginning of episde 8.. so i dont think he blend that well and close with other member

Moe said...

ouch! xD

Moe said...

during WIN Im really rooting for ot6, but im not really look into yoonhyeong and donghyuk. really. im always watched triple kim and june because they more stand out.
but during mix and match, yoonhyeong and donghyuk improved a lot. im impressive.
but when i look into hongseok and jinhyung, they did really good in a short trainee time.
then suddenly i feel like betraye ot6 ._.

ps: sorry for my bad english

DarkFanToYou said...

Years and years of training , TEAM B are hard working boys and you gave to Ikon a member who, by his own words,is lacking in sing? tsk tsk tsk

Mushie said...

i'm not worried. everyone said the same shit about seungri when he joined big bang and he proved everyone wrong. i personally thought hongseok would have been the better choice for a stronger debut, but i think in time this kid will show his talents too. I just need donghyuk to be confirmed ;_;

V4I7P8 said...

Doesn't deserve? The boy improved a lot and he didn't slack off or anything. He deserved it as much as the other two. It's not like YG forced him to stop being an actor and be an idol instead. It was his own choice.

Oh please, Donghyuk is the best dancer in the team. How can that be a deadweight? Again, people are too focused on criticizing his vocals but he still improved albeit not as much as Yunhyung. Being a good vocal isn't the only reason to be in a group.

Stardust said...

yeah, I got the same vibe from him, but he might change, he has scarry leader and June to keep him on his toes ..

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

you know oppars love this innocent maknae. Everything on screen is so perfect,they have the closest bond so who care about his nonexistent skills? Cute>>>talents. ;)

commedesfuckdown said...

Was this necessary? Lmao

Bei.B said...

blame the "evil editors"

kelly said...

You know Chanwoo's everyone's fave to begin with, you should've worked extra harder voting for your faves then. He also have a strong fanbase in SK and Internationally & everyone already predicted this to happen (well except you prob) so i don't get why all of you are becoming like Inner Circles now with all the whining & stuffs, it's not even funny anymore.

kelly said...

so you disregarded the fact that Chanwoo only trained for '2 months' before entering the competition?

kelly said...

i'll screencap this and will get back at you once iKON became popular

beachplease said...

I don't follow ikon, but what's with all the hate for this guy? Is he not talented?

Lumiere said...

i voted with all i've got

Lumiere said...

why do that..i'll tell u new that with this line-up i only care for bobby and maybe b.i for his composing skills.

Lumiere said...

Could u stop with inner circle whining?All fans whine in case u haven't noticed. i doubt u are that new to kpop.I know that is easy to perpetuate the rivalry but stop it

Lumiere said...

no one has to ask anyone anything.we are here to share opinions.

Lumiere said...

voting.were else ? stop making assumptions
and tone down the aggressiveness .this was supossed to be our save heaven,pls don't ruin it

DarkFanToYou said...

The worst is YG wanna debut Ikon in January....with one member lacking who, and im sorry for this, didn´t show any progress in all the fake show mixandmatch, cause now i see the real side of YG "FIT AND MATCH". Those times whan you said "here faces aren´t important, the talent..." where are? To be fair Hongseok has a lot of talent, and is his videos have the most views superpass even Hanbin. What was you loking for with Mix & Match? Face? Cuteness? who is more recognized? Talent? They look good together? a member who can just "fit" ?...Bonds? the bonds not necessary are cause you "fit" with someone, the time helps,sometimes the things we go through, this is the way people make bonds, cause they share experiences, cause the grow together. I don´t "fit" with my friends at first, i was totally opposite to them , like the movies when you see the silent guy and the popular together, but for them that´s was insignificant, they saw someone who they liked, they gave me a chance and i gave the chance to know each other. This is like you find the good things behin the people...but if you don´t let them to show the real person they are you maybe lost something really good. You didn´t let Hongseok show the real person, the talent, thanks to the bad edition, and let Jinhyeon out for complete and focused shameless the attention in other person. Since first episode this was GAME OVER for seok/jin, true?...Even if you let Hongseok or Jin in ikon like 7th member still the fact the other member is in say all to me. Where are the times were talent was the important? Well Gone with the wind.

ykrunkg said...

You can share your opinion, I can share my opinion. Just like why is she exaggerating tho like it's the end of everything for iKon just cuz this kid is joining the group like ok it's not that serious

Lumiere said...

and that is her opinion and how she feels.live and let live

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

so? Jinhyeong also trained for 2 months and Hongseok didnt even trained much before M&M started.


If he still lack a lot, then go back to the training center like what Team B did after they lost in WIN. iKON members have no responsibility to train you when they're busy for their debut in January.

Lumiere said...

go to akp if u'r gonna be that way
it would be the funniest twist of fate if Donghyuk doen't make it. those ot5 who voted for Chanwoo will pull their hair out

ykrunkg said...

so I can still comment on her comment ok

Lumiere said...

u missed the point but whatever.yeah go ahead and comment on the way she feels.tell someone their opinion and all is not that serious.good job

ykrunkg said...

I'm just telling her no one is forcing her to listen to iKon lol, it feels like she HAS to listen to iKon from her comment idk if she's exaggerating or not but ok

Lumiere said...

no the way i see it that user is just expressing her disappointment like the rest of us. there is no rule that we have to be happy about it all especially now when it's fresh.she/he was ready to stan them and now is expressing the points that affected her. sorry is probably for the fans who don't want to see opinions like this.
This is how i interpreted the comm and i gave it a thumbs up

kelly said...

no im not and yes you're right, every fans whine but Inner Circles took it to the next level and basically whine about everything

kelly said...

then should have make him win but guess you didn't do anything

ykrunkg said...

I'm not saying she has to be happy about it, hell I wasn't even happy about him joining iKon but I got over it quickly I mean the kid hasn't even done anything wrong so might as well give him a chance...I guess it is just different for everyone and different perceptions

Lumiere said...

i never seen them whine about everything, or achieve that next level u talk about.Everyone, everywhere is showing displeasure.stop putting labels.
like u do here: not wanting Chanwoo = whining all of a sudden

kelly said...

then go support them as individuals

Lumiere said...

isn't obvious from my comm that that is what i will do? do u have an actual point or?

kelly said...

o.0 it's not just all about not wanting Chanwoo, guess you haven't read all the comments here so.. pls, you must be in denial.. inner circles whine about almost everything, about Winner not getting attention from YG, about them only promoting for months when they are the winner blah blah, when someone tweeted Tablo about that joke he made

kelly said...

that's why i said go and support them lol

Lumiere said...

yeas unfortunately the tablo thing was uncalled for, but not enough to call them whiners.the rest is justified.who doesn't want their group to promote properly?

Lumiere said...

? i will i don't need u to tell me to?seriously the point?

kelly said...

been calling them 'whiners' ever since YG announced that Team B's going to have an another survival show lol esp when most of you bashed Team B when it was announced that they'll release a digital single

kelly said...

coz you mentioned me? shouldn't have mentioned me then >.> lol

Lumiere said...

and team b fans want yg to promote them now, to strike the iron while it's hot.some also bashed and made fun of winner that they can't produce their title.so both fandoms are whiners.what a revelation
i'm gonna stop now.this article isn't the proper place to discus that

Lumiere said...

i replied a guest not u.so u were the one hiding?
u don't even get alerts if u go as a guest how in the world was i mentioning u?

gzbitch said...

Welp. Thought it's going to be Hongseok.

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

Lmao it is because YG didnt do anything for him. Dude slay CW in the three fanmeeting votes and you thinlk B6 fans didnt vote for him? God know if YG rigged the votes for his own bias. Tsk tsk

kiyukiyu said...

I regret,,why I voted for Chanwoo..heol

hieskyes said...

im sure yg chose chanwoo bc he's profitable. He has the look and by just standing in the streets, girls will just flock around him. And sadly, this is how business works. Music industry does not really focus much on talent anymore, it's just all about whether the singer is profitable, that's all. *sigh*

Fadiah Zahrina said...

Hahaha and honestly i am confused rite now.. so you agree with all these things? I am Sorry i have noo offense for you if you are agree with all this things(i mean chanwoo as the 6th member) and i was wrong reading your comment.. hehe

So yeah, me bymyself always have been a listener of yg's music, which always been strong and i am so annoyed if i listen to chanwoo's, so here me.. saddened and dissapointed by this decision. And i am angry to myself cuz i couldnt save jin or hong...
Thats all my honest opinion:'')

Sad Hongseok said...

For a show that asked for fanvotes, it was unfair that they obviously were for chanwoo, and against the two. It's sad that all of them are victims to this, and so are you and me. They should've just introduced chanwoo to the team in another way, but i'm still not changing my mind about him. He's an adorable kid but I can't listen to him sing. For now, I can't like ikon completely like i thought i would if only jinhyeong or hongseok was the one who got in, and that sucks because i've been here since a year ago, waiting for that team b debut. And they are debuting soon, but somehow I can't be happy? My heart hurts for hongseok and jinhyeong. I'm so sorry I couldn't help you debut :(

Mary said...

I think all the hate against Chanwoo is uncalled for, but I can't help feeling disappointed because with Hongseok or Jinhyung, the vocal potential of ikon would have been so much more diverse. Even though I'm still clinging onto the tiny sliver of hope that the last member could be Hongseok or Jinhyung, realistically speaking there's like a 99.9% chance that it will be Dong Hyuk because of all the OT6 sentiment. If YG were to release either Hongseok or Jinhyung as the last member, that last member would definitely bear the brunt of all the hate from pro-OT6 people, and I don't think that's fair. Oh well, we'll see the results later.

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

that's a sarcasm dear. ;)

Fadiah Zahrina said...

Ohmy god.. fool me.. i am sorrry for my innocence(or should i say my stupidity?) Hah i think i cant think straight since yesterday and all because of this and so is the weather which rainy all day.. maybe sky sympathized with us.. (pardon me rite now cuz i am the one who becoming delutional....)

I just kneew jin and hong already moved out.. so is this all real? We cant see them anymore? Literally anymore? Why i cant take it easy.. why i cant accept this reality... (deep sigh...)

Bald Mr.Worldwide said...

lol it's ok. The top comments of this article have 6k/5k upvotes and fans on pann cant accept this reality either so you're not the only one.
It takes time to digest this, really..

DarkFanToYou said...

For the people who is comparing CHANWOO with SEUNGRI: hahaha i dont think so..Little seunhyun can sings and dances since begining. Yg said it in the episode when they chosen TOP for bigbang. "Seungri you are a great singer and dancer" vs Hyungseung "i don´t think you are good in certain things" and for that moment they had Yongbae and Daesung (vocals) already

B-line said...

[+3629, -1184] Ikon has made a mistake the moment they confirmed Jung Chanwoo... They picked a kid who doesn't have any outstanding qualities in either visuals, talent, stage presence, or music colour.



True

merp said...

I think YG was for him until the rumors started spreading. If only those god damn rumors didn't spread, Jinhyeong would be the one who's confirmed.

Lumiere said...

Who dares to compare them?
Ri looks good, his dancing was amazing and he is a decent vocalist with a nice sweet voice.
plus he had personality

nothingonyou123 said...

No way i'm gonna be a part of this fandom who majority voted for a dead weight!!! Hope Bobby and Junhoe gets more solo activities..

Kidari said...

I voted all vote that were allowed sms, line, facebook , did promotion on all sites i can to persuade people to see the obvious but they were blinded by love. Who can fight blind love, they were hell over hills for Chanwoo, or should i say little Kid tan.

elly said...

if ikon debut will be so well, if theyll have their first win like winner soon, im gona come to all of these people who said the decision of choosing chanwoo is the worst lol. ive been waiting for this
