BEST SURVIVAL SHOW THAT I'VE WATCHED!

This might be my longest review so far. I wrote it with all my heart. Sorry for the long review, I just wanted to share the thoughts which I had. This was the best survival show I've ever watched, read below, to know why.
First of all, I would like to tell that the final line-up was good, but I felt that there were a few members whose potential stood out to me. My favorite member of all time, Kim Hyun-Hee, she caught my eye, even from the beginning. She, with her bubbly personality, vocals, rap, dance, being an all rounder, made her stand out more than anyone. (My opinion)
So, In this review, I will be talking about the final 14 members, not revealing the final line-up of the debut group. I am also going to be talking about the other members, who were not in the final line-up, but caught my eye. As you might know, there are 7 members, in the group, (Class:y), they are amazingly talented.

So now, the 14 members are :
Kim Hyun-Hee, Choi Yun-Jung, Minami, Won Ji-Min, Kim Seon-Yu, Kim Yun-Seo, Hong Hye-Ju, Yoon Chae-won, Kim Yoo-Yeon, Kim Ri-Won, Park Bo-Eun, Myeong Hyeong-Seo, Lee Mi-Hee, Lee Yeong-Chae.
(Not in order of rank)

1. I would like to talk a lot about Kim Hyun-Hee, first, she caught my eye with her powerful visuals, and attractive performances, each one of Kim Hyun-Hee's performances were immensely charming. My favorite performance of Hyun-Hee would be Red Velvet- Red Flavor, she showed her powerful, charming visual with her dance. Kim Hyun-Hee had that SWAG, she was cute at times, cool at times, she can change herself very well, according to the stage (concept). She is the one who stood out the most to me, almost like she had a halo glowing above her. Her facial expressions, tell everything about how she performs, she makes it suit, to every single performance. She is stunning. Hyun-Hee shines brighter than a star to me, she deserves the best! Born to be an Idol!!!

2. Choi Yun-Jung, She had a funny personality. I could truly feel her passion for dance. She also carried out raps well. Yun-Jung is incredible, as in for dance. Her power is astonishing!

3. Minami - She did not stand out too much to me, I don't mean that I don't like her, I really like her, she was a more of a rap person, I like her swag ,too.

4. Won Ji-Min - I think she is one of the best vocalists out of all the contestants in the entire show, Her high notes, OMG. Her best performance out of all, I mean all, would definitely be the performance of Décalcomanie by Mamamoo. She was amazing out there.

5. Kim Seon-Yu - Ace(1) of Grade 1. She shines! She can hit high notes with ease! A reliable vocalist. A stunning swag and personality. I love her hair!

6. Kim Yun-Seo - She was unique in her own ways. I feel like she is one of the best Rappers out there in My Teenage Girl. Her way of expressing her feelings is incredible. Like, in Come back home, her rap was so touching.

7. Hong Hye-Ju - One of the two best dancers in My Teenage Girl. Her flexibility is breathtaking. The way she bends, carries out each dance move, everything about her dance is amazing. One of my favorites, after Hyun Hee. She is also a reliable "eonni". She can lead things very well. She had funny (not in a bad way) comments, like A dancer without bones, describing her crazy flexibility. She also is definitely Born to be an Idol.

8. Yoon Chae-Won - She is THE best vocalist here! Her high notes, too, very very very impressive. She is, hence, considered similar to IU, as for vocals, as well as looks. Very pretty! Her voice literally melts me. Very melodious to hear! Best performance.... I think, it would be "La Vie En Rose - Iz*one" and "On the Ground - Rose.".

9. Kim Yoo-Yeon - My first and last impression of Yoo-Yeon would differ a lot. The visual of My Teenage Girl, my first impression. She improved so much, looking back at how she was in the starting, She lacked confidence. At the end, she improved in almost every corner. Her Confidence level, vocals, rap, dance, performance, she improved a lot. Definitely very desperate for what she wanted. One of my favorite contestants, too.

10. Kim Ri-Won - I didn't feel much about her, she is a good vocalist and a good dancer.

11. Park Bo-Eun - Such a cutie! Her voice is really calming. A great vocalist. She is often compared to Jennie as for Visuals anf vocals.

12. Myeong Hyeong-Seo - The funniest (?) out of everyone here in My Teenage Girl. A beautiful dancer and Vocalist. She has a really BRIGHT personality! Her best performance, imo... ig would be Feel special.

13. Lee Mi-Hee - The other of the two best dancers in this show! Another ACE. Visual, Rap, Dance, Vocal! She, too, has a funny personality. Her performance in Next Level - Aespa, was incredible.

14. Lee Yeong-Chae - Her dance is pretty nice! I would say, she is one of the most underrated members of My Teenage Girl.

Now, I would like to talk about the part which made my cry the hell out. The part towards end where the students prepare special videos and gifts for the teachers. This made me feel that the teachers played an important role in the success for their students. It was very touching and I could not control myself from crying. Teacher Aiki, adored her students, like, she would adore her own daughter. All the idols Aiki, Kwon Yuri, Ok Joo-Hyun an So-Yeon were real teachers who valued the students. I really felt really touched by the interactions between them and the students.

A few contestants whom I think deserved to be in the group, or at least in the final line-up are :

Kim Su Hye - She was one of the best vocals, according to me. Her best performance, definitely, without a doubt, would be Dun Dun Dance. I definitely recommend watching the performance. She is such a cutie. She needs to be more recognized than she is. Dun Dun Dance, definitely made me adore Su-Hye more and more!

Lee Tae-Rim - OMG, her powerful dance, astonishing vocals towards the end, I mean her vocals, were almost nothing towards the beginning, but towards the end, during the On the Ground performance, we can all se how much her vocals improved. She definitely deserved being in the group.

Lee Ji-Woo - I cannot believe she did not make it in the Line-up. I mean, her vocals, dance, rap, visuals, were close to perfect. I really wished she was in the group, or at least the final line-up.

Oh Ji-Eun - She was Strong, in dance as well as rap, she can put on a very nice performance.. She was too good!

Yoon Seung-Joo - I consider her an all rounder. She is amazing. Her cute visual, with her cute voice, vocal, and dance mesmerized me.

Cho Sui - I was surprised that she was eliminated too soon.

Kim Ha-Ri - I think she showed her best, she deserved to be in the line up!

Finally,
All 83 contestants did very well, went through hard times, challenges and overcame them. I hope the ones who did not debut, find their dreams come true, one day or the other! I definitely have hope! Let's wish everyone the best. I felt really happy while watching this survival show.

Thank you for reading my thoughts!

My Teenage Girl: A Review

Honestly, this show deserves all the praise it got.

The casting of each of the girls who made it past the midpoint checks was perfect (granted some who made it to the Entrance Exam were obvious cannon fodder), and the progress of each of them was so fun to watch.

I think all of the teachers, being masters of the industry and knowledgeable of what MAKES an idol. Joohyun is a veteran idol of the legendary Fin.K.L, Yuri is part of the original biggest girl group and also has years of experience, Aiki is a skilled choreographer for many K-pop groups, and Soyeon, who has competed on many survival shows and is a true industry all-rounder. You can see why every girl, even the eliminated ones, joined the industry so quickly after the show ended.

You can call riggory or say that some people were destined to fail, but even with the likes of Lee Jiwon, who nobody expected to get through the midpoint checks, or even score highly in the initial online rankings, the show grew her as an idol and showcased her confidence and star quality being preened to perfection.

Overall, this show is just perfect and I wish they could do a Season 2 in the same way, in my opinion, Fantasy Boys didn't follow the same format and it just didn't work that well.
