1. [+1,142, -51] YG has no problem making a joke out of someone's life. 'Mix Nine'? You can't gain back trust that you've broken once. I hope YG fails.
2. [+869, -35] YG needed to have debuted Bang Yedam when there was still hype around him. I'm glad he's not at least being left behind in YG.
3. [+777, -30] Doesn't feel like there's anything special about it
4. [+41, -4] Close that box back up
5. [+37, -6] YG said they were going to care about looks now, they're liars
6. [+36, -3] Wow he's just straight up San-E
7. [+23, -1] Well their first impressions are all blah... but it's not like male idols are reliant on their looks for popularity..
8. [+19, -1] San-E??
9. [+17, -4] Their visuals....... are so.....
10. [+17, -1] Feels like I'm looking at a Taiwanese idol group or something

1. [+3,299, -69] I thought YG cared about looks now
2. [+2,671, -83] This shameless fool needs to at least resolve 'Mix Nine' before starting another show like this
3. [+1,429, -76] There are no handsome members
4. [+1,194, -76] Is that Bang Yedam or San-E?
5. [+543, -86] Really looking forward to Bang Yedam
6. [+387, -4] Tying someone down for 9 years as a trainee is too much... YG even took Bang Yedam at the height of his fame and left him there for 6 years... What amazing skills are they teaching these kids that they're being trained for the same time as a doctorate degree?
7. [+307, -16] I bet you that YG won't be considered a top 3 in a few years ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yang Hyun Suk has been putting out flops after flops since Big Bang
8. [+265, -8] What the... Black Pink totally upped the average beauty rating for YG and now these male trainees are dragging it down...??
9. [+237, -18] I can't believe these guys even had the guts to become idols when their looks just aren't even up to par. Their looks don't even deserve a trainee position. It's because female fangirls are always coddling these male idols so we're stuck with getting ugly male idols all the time... Can we please judge more objectively this time?
10. [+189, -9] Isn't this a jewel box? Where are the jewels?

1. [+538, -13] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I thought that was San-E ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
2. [+435, -14] Bang Yedam? San-E?
3. [+261, -15] Trying so hard to make up for the failure of 'Mix Nine' tsk tsk
4. [+33, -5] Their visuals are so crap;;;;;;;;; looking at SM's NCT faces to these guys and you can already see the drastic difference;;;;;;;;;; I bet YG will do the same old tactic by making them all mysterious and talented in hip hop. Go learn some actual dancing from BTS instead of whatever wiggling around you call dancing. These guys will end up the same as Winner or iKON and end up flopping.
5. [+30, -0] Yang CEO is in a tight spot... Big Bang is in the army and their stocks are on the decline.. His other cash cow was supposed to be producing varieties but that's failing. YG was at least able to abuse their power against broadcast stations by using Big Bang but they don't even have leverage anymore. They're forced to go through with this male idol group again but I don't see it being successful...
6. [+26, -2] YG's scared right now. JYP is soaring with Twice while their stocks are hesitating because of Big Bang's army and drug issues. BTS is world class right now. YG really needs something bigger.
7. [+21, -1] Why is YG trying to tell us that San-E is Bang Yedam
8. [+17, -6] Even if Big Bang comes back, they're below BTS now
9. [+17, -1] All these trainees look like Yang Hyun Suk, why is he calling this a jewel box ㅋㅋㅋ
10. [+17, -1] Isn't that San-E???? Why is San-E in YG??
