they're definitely stoking nationalism, but i thought it was pretty even-handed. they emphasized that it was a different system with different training methods, and made the case that for the 48G it's more important to look like they're having fun on stage and connect with the fans, which is valid. even bae yoon jung was pretty mild, and they were careful not to make this into a korean survival show about clowning on j-idols.

yamada noe was definitely the highlight of the episode (and of the promo videos on the run-up). i'm also a fan of takeuchi miyu, who's apparently very underrated in 48G according to all the comment sections i've seen. i've been listening to her covers (which are all her own arrangements):

also tfw when they asked the woollim trainees why they haven't debuted yet when kwon eunbi actually did:

her stage name was 'kazoo'. i wish she kept it tbh.

anyways, there's some post-senbatsu election drama rn. between the japan vs. korea angle and the sakura vs. jurina rivalry, mnet is going to be eating good.

sakura is in 1st, here at least.
