Team A's 2nd Win

[kingalexarnold.livejournal.com]

In YG Entertainment’s survival program, “WIN”, featuring their rookie group, Team A has managed to secure their second victory for the audience voting after successfully winning the first one as well.

The hot topic spread intensely with Team A and Team B almost going hand-in-hand for the 2nd round, which Daum revealed the results for on the 14th. For the second consecutive week, Team A has won the audience voting.

It was a narrow result where Team A won with 50.26% of the viewer votes and Team B had 49.74% of the audience votes. This latest battle recorded two times the number of votes that were recorded for the first battle, proving the hot interest in these groups.

For the first battle, Team A won with 51.37% and Team B had 48.63%, a 2.74% difference in the number of votes.

For the second battle, the Dream Team of judges included Lee Hyun Do, Yoon Jong Shin, and Park Jinyoung, and their evaluations appeared to coincide with the viewers’ vote. The assigned song, dance battle, and finally, the self-composed song battle rounds tallied up to equal Team A with a total of 792 points and Team B with a total of 788 points, also a very slim margin. Team B ultimately lost out on the self-composed song round, after previously leading ahead of Team A.

The final winner will be decided in the final LIVE battle.

After a total of three battles, the three instances of voting will be combined to determine who will debut from ‘WIN’. The first and second round of voting each account for 20% of the total number of votes, and the 3rd and last round of voting will reflect for 60% of the total number of votes. To determine the final winner, the final audience voting is the key.

Team B’s counter-attack this time around will be very intense. An official said, that Team B’s leader, B.I, has shown “much progress and improvement” and from the High-Touch event on October 12, the last few days before the final stage is being shown much interest from everyone.

K but what about the others

[hellodee16.livejournal.com]

lol ummm...
~~their group bond/brotherly love/friendship is stronger than ever!!1~~

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[pukingflowers.livejournal.com]

LMAO ikr, it's like the rest of team b doesn't even matter

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

I was just gonna say, B.I is already carrying them as it is.

[21banged.livejournal.com]

Right now B.I. improving is the worst that could happen, as it'll just show the huge gap between his and the rest of B's talents (sans Bobby, who remains qt)

Happy for Team A, but that margin is so small it's almost negligible. Isn't this a clear indication that both teams are wanted? Will he really disband an entire group based on a 3% higher interest?

[jonahday.livejournal.com]

That was so close! Happy for Team A, but Team B...

[+53, -7] Honestly, despite Team A’s public recognition, there’s always such a small difference in the votes and right now, Nam Taehyun is actually much more popular than either Kang Seungyoon or Lee Seunghoon.

[+44, -5] I voted for Team A after watching their “Officially Missing You” and self-composed song performances.

[+45, -8] I guess Team A will debut for sure~ Anyway, for Team B, it’s such a waste for Hanbin (B.I) and Bobby…what do we do? ㅜㅜ

[+11, 0] It’s such a waste to throw away both teams…can’t we debut them both?

[+10,-6] Team B got a lot more votes (this time)!!! Team B hwaiting!

[+10, -10] If you look at the number of hits on their videos or the comments, it seemed like A was dominating. But the difference (in votes) is much smaller than I thought..this seems a bit suspicious~~

theyre talking about this btw:



[+7, -4] The media and the reactions from the people I know almost all say that they’re sure that Team A will debut. But if you notice how small the difference in votes is, then that means that middle schoolbbasoonies (obsessed fans) are creating multiple accounts to stuff the ballot box.

[+7, 0] They’re from the same YG family, so let’s support both of them~ Team A and Team B have different colors and each have their own charms. Let’s not fight amongst the fans.

[+6, 0] The live broadcast votes count for 60%, so in the end, all they have to do is win in the live broadcast? That’ll be fun since the difference in votes for the two teams is smaller now.

[+6, -5] Team B is also really good…..but it looks like the Team A fandom is much stronger….what a shame. ㅠㅠ

[+5, -2] Team B, please stay strong

[+5, -7] I told my younger sibling who has no interest in “Win” to watch their videos and cast a vote, and s/he voted for Team B. The people around us also say that Team B is skilled, so the results were quite unexpected.

[+3, -1] It would be better to just debut both teams or select some members from each team and debut them together.

Interest=/=voting

People might prefer A but are they voting??? I doubt it.

[hellodee16.livejournal.com]

Congrats to A, they deserved to win this round.
but wow, so so close in votes! are the fans trying to make it even as possible? lol
60% for the last round tho, B could still take it.

B.I does such a great job leading his team but imo him and Bobby deserve better singers!!
A should debut soon even tho I don't expect them to be a top top group. YG should forget about debuting Jennie's group for the next 2yrs and try to debut an improved B next yr with a addition/substitution of someone who can sing exceptionally. or just let B.I and Bobby become a duo ffs.

[tlict.livejournal.com]

my exact thoughts

[jamieguo48.livejournal.com]

This. I think with the last round of performances, Group A convinced me they could work as a team as I loved their self composed and dance numbers. They really seemed like a group for the firs time.

YG should debut them, then with group B, change them up a bit, with more singers and debut them in a year or so. Their dancing is great, but the singing is sooo weak it really pulls them back down to earth. Team A doesn't have that problem, and now they seem like they can be a real group.

Hoping TEAM A wins.

[tlict.livejournal.com]

team a has to debut now, jinwoon's already 23, mino's been in two groups and still hasn't made it yet. they're desperate and ready!

i love both teams but as everyone's been saying, bi and bobby (and i think joonhwae to some extent) are the only ones i could root for. i just can't take jinhwan's voice and yoonhyung's too... raw.

[soramai.livejournal.com]

Poor Team B, they're losing twice with the public voting.
But congrats team A.
We can say it's clear now that Team A will win this.
I want to be happy but I can't. Just debut both YG.

[pukingflowers.livejournal.com]

team A deserved this, it was clear that they did better during the last battle.
but i feel bad for team B too. i just love both groups equally and want them to debut together but knowing how dumb YG is on managing his idols i doubt he will/can do it ;n;

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

It'd be dumb not to debut both but then YG sucks at managing.

I hope the group doesn't debut till January though, Nov debut just sounds dumb tbh.

I actually like Team B but I think they need to cut two members and bring in powerful singers. Because otherwise it's just B.I/Bobby and the dancers.

[porcupinegloves.livejournal.com]

"It'd be dumb not to debut both but then YG sucks at managing."

yeah i'm like 'lol he wouldn't be dumb enough to completly disband the losing team' but then i remember he's yg and that i shouldn't doubt it

[porcupinegloves.livejournal.com]

omg so close

[blue-rin.livejournal.com]

Ok my dream group is all of Team A + B.I & Bobby (sorry to the rest of B and all that) but how would that work? Can you imagine B.I leader having to join a team full of hyungs. And even then that could be too many rappers. OTll wouldn't work; all that talent, they would just bury each other.

So since my ideal will never happen YG will just have to debut both to keep me happy.

[edanz-castle.livejournal.com]

Omg same. Team A and Bobby and B.I is what I want to happen.

[prdarkstar.livejournal.com]

B would be unstoppable if they had better singers because they've got everything else down but they don't and it's a huge hindrance.
So while B has my heart, from a critical stand point, I think A should debut /sigh

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

YG is one of the biggest companies, if he can't get some trainees that are able to sing then their talent scout needs to be fired asap.

[ah-mui.livejournal.com]

Team A should debut first, and an improved Team B 6 months later. They can have rotating promo cycles so YG will have continued income, they won't overlap and fans are free to support both teams. Like Seungyoon doing his solo thing while in A, B.I & Bobby will also be promoting as a duo with some featuring vocals - not Jennie but will probably be Jennie.

[ankhan.livejournal.com]

not gonna lie i'm completely biased towards TEAM A.. nam taehyun YUMMM!
but omg my bobby! my BI! *moves the others slowly away*
what's gonna happen to them!? just make them a duo!

[zombiechick815.livejournal.com]

I'm really stanning Team A at this point, it's frustrating that all of the judges comments/scores are in favor of Team B for the most part. Overall I think Team A is more put together, and their vocals and original competition really blow Team B away.

At the same time, it would make me really sad to see Team B disband. They obviously have a great relationship and are putting in a big effort. However, Bobby and B.I. are carrying the entire team. I can't imagine the pressure B.I. must be under now!

I'm hoping Team A will win and YG will tweak Team B (cut a member or two/find some trainees with better vocals) and debut in the relatively near future. I think Bobby and B.I. are just about ready to debut and I would love to see them promote (either in a group/Team B, or as a duo)!

[hina.livejournal.com]

I'm so B biased at this point it's not funny.
tbh I can understand why ppl want A to win, especially given their ages, and I wouldn't even mind if B lost and trained for a few years and then debuted. But I can't bear the thought of them being broken up when B are obviously all so close? Much more so than A.

Also, Jinhwan and Junhwe are the cutest and need more screentime instead of deadeyed Seungyoon pls and thankyou.

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

If B had better vocals there'd be no question...and the vote is still ridiculously close but I'm sure YG will fuck it all up for both teams either way

[unicornios.livejournal.com]

lol mte. one of them will debut only to go back to the dungeon after a few months and stay there for a couple of years

[srybutno.livejournal.com]

lmao @ people acting like team a has great singers or something?? lol ksy is ok but the others are a mess(including taehyun, yes)and they sound awful together most of the time just like team b

at least team b is better in every other aspect
