It just looked very well made in my opinion, and Im so happy theyre done with this show. It aired from April 1, 2021 to June 3, 2021. Other Recaps: Episode One // Episode Two // Episode Three // Episode Four // Episode Five // Episode Six // Episode Seven // Episode Eight // Episode Nine. To calm things even more, I dont feel like I have a horse in this race. Its gonna be a popularity contest. here? Just saw the episode and Stray Kids were my fav as well. Tbh it wasnt the best arrangement, or even their best performance but nevertheless memorable. They got to try new things and cant rely too much on stunts. 6th place: SF9 2,042.471, *The scores for the 1st Round are determined: Part 1 Judges vote (25%) + Groups vote (25%) At some points falling backwards isnt that interesting anymore and neither is this Im so cool grrr *stomp* *stomp*. Yep, Boys Be Loud. I think it actually starts today. I always enjoyed they never lipsyncd his parts but rather Hongjoon interpreted those moments his own way. I was wondering if they would edit Yunho completely out of this episode, and Im glad they didnt. From the dark skies behind them, it looks like this was done in the middle of the night.

They worked really hard and gave some killer performances. Ive gotta say, Im a little surprised The Boyz managed to take the top spot. Thats sadly true but I believe in international iKONics giving their full support to the boys. Honestly I felt Eukwang carried most of the humor of the show(as well as Ateez Wooyoung). 1st place: Mayfly: Donghyuk (iKon), Juyeon (The Boyz), Taeyang (SF9) The language was Korean. I also like his black-painted nails. Take the craft seriously, and please please take the songs seriously, but not everything has to have fifteen layers of meaning and be performed like a battle cry. Does it mean something? Just why??? Its so overused and its so far away from November. Mnet's "Kingdom: Legendary War" is gearing up for its final battle! Explosively. I didnt come for them, but Im definitely turning into a fan. It flowed well and was the most fun. They were good, but they just were energizing and memorable. Hes funny even when hes not on screen, as evidenced by his letter. Looking at the other groups results, I feel embarrassed. 5th place: iKON 888.889 points (333.333 + 555.556) SF9 is already confirmed to have a comeback early July so theres the first confirmed CB for the Kingdom groups. 2nd place: Its One: Bobby (iKon), Sunwoo (The Boyz), Hwiyoung (SF9), Dance Unit: I was really looking forward to The Boyzs stage as their track was my favorite. Props are used to make a performance more interesting, obviously, and that metal incorporation is also not new to JYPe groups so their overall performance was well-thought of though they should be more careful with their stunts. They known as a performance group and I believe they can actually showcase their cool choreographies for their next stages and also hoping for Rowoons complete recovery. Can anyone help me out here? why some people seems to hate props, stunts, theatrical performance? If anybody won this round it was them. The remix isnt bad, but I didnt like the blood part (cuz ew wtf) and the Hakuna Matata part. Thanks a lot! Im rooting for several groups, but I feel bad for btob cause they are only doing vocals, but their vocals are kinda average for a boy group maybe a little above but I feel they need more, 6. For self-evaluation, each boy group will hold 3 votes, and will vote for other boy groups other than their own group. Im curious to what their next comeback is gonna be like and what life after Kingdom is going to be like. And like almost every other group, theyre mooyaho-ing all the way. 6th place: SF9 444.444 points (444.444 + 0). Because the backing track with the right tempo could still be heard it ended up sounding messy but maybe Im being picky. I thought this performance was really cool. Poor (or lucky?) The last performances for Round 1 of KINGDOM: LEGENDARY WAR were released on April 15 along with the first half of the results. Ateez was amazing, but I think they were way too serious. If B.I was still there, iKON wouldnt even think of going to Kingdom imho. I hope theyre able to live up to their 2019 MAMA performance during the show. Probably because I like Miroh so much as a song. The behind-the-scenes video is made even better when Changmin pays the guys a visit. 6. I feel like the majority of the purpose of the show is just lost on boy groups. 5th place: ATEEZ 504,215 votes BTOB I tried to search for the song title on Melon and there was a song with the name but different lyrics. Plus, the songs pretty good! As for the song I remain nonplussed about it. Dont be disrespectful. Hey, Im just resting my eyes. Kingdom is a sequel to Queendom and will puts male teams head-to-head in a comeback battle. But I like how they did it all with so much passion/energy. However, due to their young age, how many singers out there actually have enough life experiences to even sing explosively or expressively. 1st place: Stray Kids 690,971 votes Also tbh we all saw it coming that Stray Kids would win, they deserved it, but given their massive GP, fandom and decent digitals, theyre obviously going to win :)). They are all amazing performers in their own right and I wish they go with their strengths and have fun instead of trying hard to be something they are not. The use of chain fences was cool, giving the stage a maze-like appearance. At ease (iKon): iKon and YG just wasnt made for Kingdom. Stray Kids are next, and all I can think about is that cruel debut show they suffered through with JYP. ATEEZ is my favorite group out of the competitors, and because of that I know they have more to offer than they showed in this stage. Some people were like oh, their vocals were off, but I like to hear them struggle tbh. All Rights Reserved. Disbanded Kpop Boy Groups But it has been a few years since I last went to either of them , Your email address will not be published. I hated how the voting was traded strictly between the groups for a few of the rounds last year. As announced last week, the theme for the battle was To The World, and the competing groups were tasked with remixing one of their songs to put on a performance that they wanted to show to the world.. If I had made a ranking based on the song only it would have looked a lot different: Song ranking: glare at the camera, (srsly what are all these choreographers angry about all the time). (iKON) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8trk5WKgjoI), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1TJGwIMG4Y, [] + KINGDOM ver. Unless they happen to be singer-songwriters themselves. Everyone else felt so clunky and awkward with all those forced stunts and felt a little try hard.. BTOB 3. Your email address will not be published. The Boyz were the winners of Road To Kingdom. Han takes his break alone, learning how to make coffee. Personally id say atz > sf9 > tbz/btob > ikon > skz, though my ranking aslo isnt really set in stone, all i know is that atz had my favorite. 1. The Boyz understand this stage setup well and know how to use their numbers so they definitely have the potential to be the group to beat again.

I know I would. Idk the props and fur costumes also looked kind ofcheap? I dont think live singing is by definition superior. Kpop Polls The process goes on until the final boy group and all performances have been completed. Finally, TVXQ enter as hosts. I think one huge thing that sets RTK/Kingdom is the lack of a live audience. Its like a less-successful version of music theyve already released. There was also a little live singing in the SKZ performance so good job ! A lot, actually. 5th place: Stray Kids 1,072.797 points (517.241 + 555.556) As a result, with 50 percent of the groups scores still up in the air, Kingdom revealed the initial results based solely on the votes by the six competing groups and the evaluations by the panel of experts, which each account for 25 percent of their final scores (adding up a total of 50 percent). 2. 2nd place: Its One: Lee Know, Felix, I.N (Stray Kids), Wooyoung, San, Yunho, Yeosang, Seonghwa (Ateez), Peniel (BtoB), Vocal Unit: My own choice for winner is BTOB because this show made me care about them, a lot. I feel like SF9 wants to prove that they are more than visuals and then winds up walking for like 45 seconds. Kind of remarkable how much worse this was compared to Road to Kingdom. Im not so sure about that, but Im definitely rooting for them. The performances were aired via live stream on February 23, 2021, through Mnet's YouTube channel. Compared to many of the other groups, their use of the stage felt more constrained. It seems like the groups dynamic is going to be a lot more friendly compared to Road to Kingdom (that is, that btob will gleefully ignore whatever machinations the producers throws at them), so Im excited for other episodes. 1) omg they do a lot of jumping tricks, they need variety sometimes Random pointless comment pretty sure that was Lotte World not Everland that The Boyz visited. And right as I prepare myself for an all-dark affair, BTOB arrives wearing white suits. After a moody intro video, SF9s stage opens in black and white. Thats why its called legendary. Then again, I think its dangerous to have too much of the vote be determined by global fans, making the series nothing more than a popularity contest. On another note, I feel so bad for the seven members of the boyz who arent Juyeon, Sunwoo, Hyunjae, or Q as they were basically backup dancers for this stage. Not because they cant compete, but because they are no where near rookies. . Congrats to Stray Kidz. I was bored after watching just a few performances. The song built to a rousing, shout-along finale.

Funny, in the next episode youll see your fav group doing stunts and using props. Unlike RTK, I hope they just air all the performances for the round in one episode but considering they didnt reveal all the ranks this week I doubt that will be the case. I agree with the rest of the comments the other groups being the same old, same old. I always wonder how many treasures idols, agencies and producers have lying around. In the context of this show, performing a ballad is actually pretty gutsy, especially first thing out. iKons greatest strength is their stage presence with live singing and rapping, but they didnt utilize that here. And ooh, WolfgangI was not feeling the staging or the concept choice. Enter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. Im sorry, iKON. Im not sure what this has to do with anything, but they discuss their song and how it shows how real they are as a band. document.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Ateez comes last unfortunately because their choice of remixing heavy sounds did not showcase what their song Wave actually portrays. Warning: This recap is not spoiler-free. This was an odd performance because it used a lot of pre-recorded video for transitions. Meanwhile, THE BOYZ took third place in the expert judges evaluations and fourth place in the contestants votes. On April 15, the new idol competition showwhich is the male version of the hit 2019 program Queendomaired the second half of its thrilling first round. Like yeah you are powerful and impactful, but in the same way of precious stages. Expressively. Im happy to hear them in any venue, survival show or not. The episode opens with all groups marching out one by one, flanked by dramatic remixes of their signature songs. SF9 Especially the first part of The Stealer remix was very disappointing. The guys look back at some of their stages, highlighting funny anecdotes. Isnt it a bit impressive or do they really think were not good enough?. Kingdom: Legendary War - Episode One Recap and Ranking Posted on April 2, 2021 by Nick 40 Comments Warning: This recap is not spoiler-free. Personally, I feel like girl groups wind up being a bit more pigeonholed to their sounds and concept, so Queendom was a fantastic way of seeing them tackle something new, adapt another song to their own style, or showing off the talents of individual members that rarely get that opportunity in their own comebacks. ATEEZ This husk of a blogger, wiped from a busy work week and overdosed on TXT has become a ghost(9). So maybe not relieving the fatigue?? Thanks for keeping up and covering the whole show. You know how MNET works so it isnt new nor surprising for them to treat all the groups equally.

BTOB The Real (Ateez): Love that they were having fun and for once, I really felt the hype through the screen and the climax was great. They performed the song so well. Introduction Stage: 100 second performance of a song that won a Music Show (Ep. I did not expect edgy Wave to sound so good. Oddly, their video starts with fashion, as the guys show us some of their favorite looks. One roadblock out of the way for Queendom Season 2, god bless! The reaction to the results of the members and the speech of InSeong made viewers hearts ache.Inseong shared: Really, when I see the rankings, I feel very sad.

I think the producers missed an opportunity to switch up the staging. Its unknown if Mingi will join the rest of the group in Kingdom due to him being on a temporary hiatus. For the second half . Wave or Beautiful Pain for me, Miroh in at 3rd. Luckily, this song is a jam. But the results of the self-evaluation vote had surprised members and the viewers. But, its very early and so much can change as the other rounds unfold. Perhaps I am biased, but I must say BTOBs performance really stands out from the rest. ATEEZ ?? As with all the groups, I think their Kingdom run has been hit or miss, but generally on the strong side. Youd think these guys would be the underdogs of the show, based on the fact that they qualified for Road to Kingdom, but in the time between the two series, their sales have skyrocketed. thank you for the recaps and reviews, ive really appreciated it as i wouldnt have been interested in the show if it werent for your reviews (and btob and ikon). It felt like a knockoff and less impactful version of the Mayfly Wolf stage. Thank you for this review! I dont have many posts but I will hopefully have more in the future!
