mte!

I was looking forward to this b/c of Kei & Sojung, but then

"comedian Jo Se Ho ... confirmed as host[]" WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. DOES. HE. NEED. TO. BE. INVOLVED. IN. E V E R Y T H I N G????????????? Especially when it comes to hosting shows with young female contestants??? Uggghh.

[carra-mia.livejournal.com]

I seriously wonder if he has some good family connections or instinct to kiss excessively the right asses. Prob men who make the crucial decisions are just as awful as him and willingly put one of them in conditions they would really be happy about aka in the middle of young girls...

I'm still wondering what happened to BESTie's comeback ;____;

And while I love Boa if there's an underrated SPICA member she & Bohyung aren't it, rather the other 3 members are. I'd have gone with Narae or Sihyun personally.

Wasn't uji supposed to do something with mario in the us for some reason ugh I just want them back

[kashchanocchi.livejournal.com]

KEIIII

[supersunshiner.livejournal.com]

YES TO KEI, HYEMI, KIM BOA, SOYEON, DAWON, UJI, & SOJUNG

i swear if they don't put sorn or seunghee on this show i will pitch a fit, hyojung or binnie honestly need to be on there too (or at least yooa even tho bby is kind of weak when it isnt short lines)

but why pig seho? why does he have to be in everything with females?

[fabulousdoll.livejournal.com]

This could only be better without Jo Se Ho.

[smyers92.livejournal.com]

I just want a spica comeback

[demeulemeester.livejournal.com]

i wish a nine muses member could've been cast but o well. lots of girls i'm a fan of in this line up! the clc member better be seunghee. i would love to see sorn as well.

also why do the hosts for these female competition shows always have to be male 🙄

[adenar.livejournal.com]

I wish star empire would push hyemi a bit since she's now effectively main vocal post-sera, she has such a sweet and capable voice.

[onerainysunday.livejournal.com]

Highly anticipating this with the exception of that pig of a man, Jo Se Ho.

[yejun.livejournal.com]

Yesssssssssss Kim Boaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Sojung & Boa... Damn!!!

[pseudo-shigure.livejournal.com]

Can some one tell me the vocal hierarchy in lovelyz, i thought the main/lead voc are baby soul and.... the one with short hair.

[ohlookshiny.livejournal.com]

i thought the two main/leads are kei and jin (short hair). then sujeong and baby soul.

[sethelaezekiel.livejournal.com]

Uji 😊😊😊 I miss bestie sfm

[broadcities.livejournal.com]

here for this lineup (happy my forever nugu babies laboum and bestie are also represented!) but when will se ho retire from entertainment? sunggyu should be fun though!

[miwa201.livejournal.com]

omg uji and sojung! yes! i'm guessing seunghee will join from oh my girl

[crack.livejournal.com]

Je Seho can go
I wish at least one of the MCs was female (ideally both, although i do love sunggyu)

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

"Jo Se Ho confirmed as host"

they really can't let this douchenozzle retire can they

[hyungmoney.livejournal.com]

is this rly gonna showcase their talents or is it gonna another 'secret weapon'

[carra-mia.livejournal.com]

This says strictly about vocals so I still have hope...

[adenar.livejournal.com]

Hyemi not linzy? I mean i'm happy for hyemi but linzy is just as underrated tbh

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

same but i think its because linzy has gotten variety gigs (esp in singing) and hyemi hasnt

[a-suitcase.livejournal.com]

Very excited to see Minjae on here. Also hope Seunghee will join :).

[mylovebelt.livejournal.com]

excited and hoping for the best for the girls to shine :)

[annayism.livejournal.com]

[froggster.livejournal.com]

No offence to Hyemi, but... Linzy was robbed. her pipes are no joke!
yeeesssss Sojung and Uji. Shannon is good too, but I don't like her style
