i was hoping if you could also give Ateez a chance and react to some of their reality shows as well? It seems you dont have many of theirs unlike some other groups :)

The voting was a mess, asking us to vote before we saw the performance, and ending the voting a couple of minutes after the last performance, it just show that it's a popularity contest in the end. Plus the app was crashing for most of the voting period so we struggled to vote. And Yes SF9 mean Sensational Feeling 9, and the 9 has a double meaning, it also resemble a chinese character that mean longevity. SF9's performance was beautiful, the way they integrated parts from all their previous performances to show their growth during kingdom. But also also the Tunnel who is the same shape as their lightstick, and who's color is the fantasia hologram, our fandom color. The end part where they are in a lane, they are in the same order as for their intro stage, but with Rowoon coming in the middle, to show that even thought he couldn't participate in most of the stages, at the end they are still one, and together they walked towards the light, which represent Fantasy.

I am not sure if you noticed but SF9’s performance was genius. I’m not sure if you caught everything but they referenced every single stage they did. In the beginning Hwiyoung grabbed Taeyang by the neck and that referenced there “Now or never” performance beginning..then dawon looked into the mirrors (also referencing there first performance. They also referenced there move performance with the human trees as well as Taeyangs dance intro performance. Then when youngbin rapped we saw the “first person” aspect from there “stealer” performance and Youngbin pushed away the chessboard and the crown from that performance and instead grabbed the SF9 jewel from the very first intro performance on kingdom. Then Hwiyoung looked at his watch just like in there intro performance and instead of walking forward like they did in the intro performance...they walked back toward the hologram tunnel. This is beautiful symbolism because the fandom color for SF9 is Fantasia hologram and the tunnel was also shaped as there logo. In conclusion....there fans...aka fantasy are what make them breathe and the reason they do what they do and who they were walking back to😭😭😭It was seriously perfection and one of my favorite performances on kingdom

Just the fact that San was still present here, show's his dedication towards Atiny and His group as well in my opinion. For the people who didn't know or hear. San lost his grandfather that week so I feel any Atiny would've understood it if he didn't show up as he was/is still mourning about it and you can clearly see it in his demeanor as well during the show. Yet he still showed us an amazing show and I can't be prouder and I think his family is as well ;)

I wanna say you might want to give the original song from ateez a listen cause it has Mingi in the song :D It really takes the song to another level

Is it just because its finals already? I feel like everybody's performance was so amazing here.

PD's bathroom break is taking too long this time. hahaha just kidding! can't wait for part 2

Mnet included points from k-charts and apple music obviously because of money. Same thing goes to streaming performances on youtube throughout the whole show. The more u stream the more points your fave gets but also the more money mnet receives because profits will be divided 50 to company, 50 to mnet

They finally revealed the list of experts that had been judging for the previous rounds. People were actually quite surprised at the lineup as it was a good bunch of people who are quite respected. https://www.allkpop.com/article/2021/05/who-are-the-kingdom-juries

My fav song was ikon’s, then skz with Ateez after. Not sure if you have listened to the songs yet but fun fact for Ateez, Mingi was able to participate in the song👏🏾 I got so attached to the song because of him being able to participate in it, I got hurt when they cut his part out for the performance 😂 I forgot they had to do it since he wasn’t there. And another fun fact about their song, this was the song at the end of fireworks so pretty sure this song will be their next comeback song unless they change it. this was by far the best performance the boys did this season for me, they killed. The incorporation of the videos and the transitions back to the stage was everything. Their performance helped me like the song a bit more as well. This and their ice and fire stage was their best performance for me. And can we talk about eric, his rap verses have been 🔥 this season. During RTK sunwoo only stood out to me but man Eric has improved so much👏🏾 now zuho shook me..his verse was amazing, this and his iconic I'm the male version of venus line, yass

The voting on Whosfan was straight BS. They knew the App was going to crash but still had international fans use that app to vote. People were speculating that they didn't really want the international votes and that's why they didn't care that the app crashed.

Tesa

i had no idea you could start voting at the beginning of the show and not AFTER seeing all the performances.. that was so stupid. i mean, the whole voting system was, but at least for the finale they could have tried to make it make sense lol

Ateez's performance was the perfect combo of powerful and touching for me. They got to act and show some character work, not just intensity, which I appreciated, and the kids!! Ugh, they got me in the feels lol. The ending gave me major Oneus "Lit" vibes, but more playful. Stray Kids' performance was incredible as always, but I found myself wishing for more dynamics. All of their performances besides "Pray" have been so intense and I was hoping for a bit more balance in this one, like a reprieve or breath before the climax. Also, I wish they had utilized the trampolines more!! That was such an epic idea that deserved more screen time. The Boyz' performance was definitely one of my favorites. It was dynamic and impactful—the water thooo—and I felt like it was the most epic (cinematic) song out of the bunch; it's definitely one I'll be listening to in my free time. BtoB's performance was tantamount to 10 years of experience; showmanship doesn't always account for talent or humility, but that's exactly what they continue to deliver year after year. As BtoB is the group that got me into kpop, this performance felt like the culmination of my pride and love for them. Ikon's performance was exactly what I expected, in the best way. They are pure energy. Screw polished and perfect, they make me wanna dance and sing my heart out and I love it. I also really admire that despite this being a competition, they stayed true to who they are. Lastly, SF9's performance was my favorite. The song is an ear-worm, definitely going straight on my playlist; the staging was so good!!; adding callbacks to their previous performances was such a cool easter egg and they were perfectly integrated; the dancing was on point—I'm convinced Yoo Taeyang can do no wrong lol; I just loved everything about it! I'm so proud of how far they've come since the start of the competition 😭

First things first I want to point out to ppl before my long ass essay response that I usually do, The Real was going to be Ateez's next title track. At the end of the Fireworks mv you can hear the intro to The Real in it which is what they do with their next title track that they did last time with Thanxx! Just an interesting thing I didn't see a whole lot of ppl talking about! ^_^

HumbleAndKindness

Omg the way my gc and I freaked out when we heard that familiar tune 😂 This is definitely gonna be a fun comeback, I'm so excited!

I'm sure all of us Atiny would have understood and supported but it seems very San to want to push through and perform. I did appreciate seeing the other guys, especially Wooyoung, seem to keep a little closer eye on him that day.

Stray Kids got me to watch Kingdom. The first few episodes I just watched Stray Kids, and glossed over the rest. Until, episode 7 and the sub units. Ended up rewatching the series again and stopping and really listening to all the performances. Fell HARD for Ateez!!! And surprisingly. the only song I downloaded was Finale by BtoB!!! What I like bout these songs in general. is seeing other groups, that I'm not a fan of at first.

LivKO

So does anyone know the name of the instrumental piece playing during MC max introduction to the groups in this episode? I loved it so much

Juda Culp

Okay so I finally decided to watch Kingdom after so long lol but man, SF9 deserved so much better! Their performance literally moved me to tears, it was so beautiful.
