- Filler episodes here we go! Love this episode. - Glad to hear that you have your new chair. - After checking out their own reactions, I got to bump up Brave Girls in how I would rank them since they mentioned various things I missed. Loona's reaction was also really great where they start off by dubbing over their own performance and saying what their characters would be saying. - I do wish Queendom included a rap unit. I know it would be unfair to some of the team currently in the show, but I would still like to see it since both seasons have had some great rappers. - Dance and performance are used interchangeably. - Exy and Eunseo with the Shinee reference. They were singing "Ring Ding Dong" when FANtastic was revealed. - I am interested in checking out Road to Kingdom and Kingdom (I haven't seen them myself). It would be a natural follow-up to Queendom 1 and 2. If you wanted another competition show, I would suggest probably Girl Planet 999 (I also haven't checked that out, but it is the show Kep1er formed on), Street Woman Fighter, or Good Girl (My favorite MNet competition show and includes some familiar faces and plenty of new ones). For Twice content, 100% should check out Time To Twice. - When this show airs on Youtube on Thursday, they do live subbing. The person who does the subbing, literally tried to caption all of the messages scrolling across the screen. It was still going after the scene ended. - I need to find that gif of Dayoung. Something tells me it is hilarious. - The song playing during that one scene where they are talking about Kep1er's dance skills was NCT 127's Kick It. - Brave Brothers must really have a thing for Iron Man.

- A nice upgrade over the location last season. - SinB continues with the props to help signify she is happy. First the phone with the message, and now a clapper. Love it. - Then Eunha with the cuteness and trying to hide. It makes it so hard to pick a favorite for Viviz. Before this, the only GFriend member I really knew was Yerin, mainly because of her dancing when she appeared on Running Man. - Maybe one-day CLC will be mentioned on Queendom. I know they are brought up on GP999. - Certainly teasing the chance the Bona might be showing up to be part of the dance unit. While I'm glad Eunseo is there, I would have loved for Bona to be taking part in the dance unit since she is supposed to finally be available. Her show "25 21" was a pretty big hit from what I heard. I need to check it out. - I hope the dancers have some freedom to make the dance their own and it isn't completely done in the way that the choreographers want. - I had been wondering about those flickers, but I never felt it was worth mentioning. - "Purr" is my favorite of the three performances, but I'm a bit worried about the fact that they are going to have Kep1er of all groups twerking. - Loona and Kep1er are so cute together. - Olivia Hye and Eunseo (don't know why they translated her name as WJSN) doing Troublemaker oh my...I don't think I could handle that. Troublemaker is quite the dance... Troublemaker was a song by the duo of the same name, which was made up of Hyuna of 4Minute and Hyunseung of Beast. They had to alter the choreography to make the tv stations happen. - Eunseo showing off her role as WJSN's main extrovert #1. - Poor Loona kicked all the down to their third choice. - All 3 units I think have a chance of doing a killer job. Hard to pick who will win.

- Hyolyn now short the giant pink bag. I'm assuming whatever was inside was her gift to her dance partners. - Going with a Taeyeon song would probably be a good choice to help capture the fan votes. - Ailee is such a powerful vocalist, that her songs might cause issues for some groups. - Got nothing more to say about the Blackpink stuff than what I already said. - Loona with their kidnapping plan for Eunha... - Nice to see Loona and Kep1er getting married. - Eunha really likes hiding. - Hwasa/Kei and Hyolyn/Minyoung is a good comparison since both pairs were made of those born in the same year and even picked names to go with that. - Eunha saying "C Room" just by itself. I'm pretty sure the only reason that was included was that it sounded like she was swearing (and the Korean caption does point out that she isn't). - I don't know if it has been mentioned before, but Viviz's name comes from the three members' names. EunBI (Eunha's real name), EunBI (Also SinB's real name), and UmJI, with the Bs interchanged to Vs and the J interchanged with Z (I know the character being translated as J and Z is common, but not sure about the B/V part). So Eunha then suggested ViBinJung for EunBI, SooBIN, and YeonJUNG. I'm assuming that also ended up a play on a commercial based on their reaction. - Hey, they are bringing up Bona's drama when they are considering what song to pick. - I would have loved for them to do Downpour if only to see Yeonjung's reaction. Yeonjung was one of the original performers of the song since she was a member of I.O.I. Downpour was the final song that I.O.I. did before breaking up (their contract only allowed them to be together for a year). The live version at their concert features them crying up a storm while trying to sing the song. After I.O.I broke up, Yeonjung returned to her company and joined WJSN who had just made their debut. - Hyolyn and Minyoung are such a powerhouse team. If they go all out, it will be hard for the other teams to match them. I'm predicting them at #1. - I wouldn't count WJSN/Viviz out for the vocal performance either though.

- Super Yuppers here to the rescue! That part when Dayoung shows up was the intro to WJSN Chocome's "Super Yuppers". It is such a fun song. I hope you check it out someday. I find it funny that the Chocome members were helping out with something involving height. Chocome means something along the lines of shorty, tiny, etc. and the 4 Chocome members are the 4 shortest members of WJSN. - This entire segment pretty much showcases Dayoung being WJSN's Main Extrovert #2. I'm glad she finally got some more screentime because like Eunseo she is so much fun. Dayoung is considered the dorm mom of the group because she tends to look after the others so it makes sense that she was all over the place helping out here. - I hope they had some bread for Hyunjin. - You could see the smile on the meat guy's face through his mask when Brave Girls were giving them attention. - I'm hoping we get more scenes from the dinner in the Queen's Land episodes this week. - All the trouble putting up the banner and then it disappears. - I think they did say it during Queendom 1, but I might be wrong. - I look forward to finding out which song WJSN/Viviz ends up going with for the final performance. - 2/3 names are spaced themed. Makes sense when half of the teams on Queendom 2 have a space theme. - My prediction is Hyolyn/Minyoung as #1, WJSN/Viviz as #2, and Loona/Kep1er as #3. - Since they have to vote for two teams which means Loona/Kep1er can't just vote for their own team only, it could really swing to any team for the evaluation (but Hyolyn/Minyoung are totally going to win).

to me it's the best round in all QUEENDOM / KINGDOM show because we can have the best performance and unexpected alliance .

fabrice maire

for the vocla unit at first i think if HYOLIN chose WJSN it's already done YEONJUNG is call the " 3rd gen HYOLIN " because she have amazing vocals skill and she came from the same agency . but ithink it's the thing with HYOLIN she's a competitor she want taste herself she know than if she chose WJSN it's done . but we got very intersting unit .

fabrice maire

first MOON/ SUN unit honestly i don't think they can win but sometimes in that case the song matter a lot more than we think if they chose DOWNPOUR a beautiful I.O.I song i think they can got the people heart and maybe win if they're really really really good . 2 WJSN X EUNHA very very strong vocal team honestly they got they're chance but again if they chose a good song and if they did an amazing job . 3 HYOLIN/ MINYOUNG high chance to win if MINYOUNG can relax and be confidente about her skill they win for sure if MIYOUNG stress or mess with the lyrics or if she sick it's the only way than the other team can win this .

fabrice maire

the real competiton is between the dance unit honestly for this i think the unit KEP1ER /VIVIZ can win this they're both very solid / but the team WJSN / HYOLIN is good to LOONA /BRAVE GIRLS i don't know LOONA as great dance routine and they're very well know to be in sync like GFRIEND /VIVIZ but i don't know if LOONA can be impressive only with 5 members i think than like VIVIZ without the all crew they can lose they're impact on stage .

fabrice maire

FOR HYOLIN now people who don't know her well can see how kind she is if you look every round she chose a differente group and make that group shine . if she want to be secure she can chose alway's her labelmate WJSN but no she change 1 round she chose KEP1ER , second round LOONA and now WJSNand BRAVE GIRLS and every time she chose the most difficult thing . with KEP1ER they rookie she take the risk to chose them even if she didn't know they're capacity . round 2 LOONA she cover a 12 singer song alone she could chose something easier for her a VIVIZ song for exemple .now she chose MIYOUNG and she push her because she see than BRAVE GIRLS are in struggle if she win with MIYOUNG BRAVE GIRLS can avoid the elimination . and in dance she chose her labelmate because she know them . smart and KIND that why HYOLIN will win this show for sure . the korean people love that kind of personality .

fabrice maire

NO NO DG you can't said that WHAT you really thing than HYOLIN win because she chose a LOONA song man HYOLIN could win with any other song from any other group . LOONAis second because they got a HYOLIN song not the opposite . HYOLIN cover thousand songs and it's her 3 survival show she's very usual with htat kind of thing that why so many people thing than she will win . like i said in you're previous reaction only HYOLIN is objectively above the other ( and it's not a biased opinion ) i want see KEP1ER or VIVIZ win the SHOW but without HYOLIN all group are very close with they're main talent and they're lacking point . to me if i'am pretty sure than HYOLOIN and WJSN will be in a final top 3 id'ont know who's gonna be the 3 one . at this point we look for the top 3 not the winner .

fabrice maire

visualy you seems to love LOONA visual and more specificly KIM LIP the blond one the brunette is HEEJIN my LOONA bias . to me in LOONA visualy 3 girls fit my taste HEEJIN /CHUU / JINSOUL . but to me the best visual team is KEP1ER they're so cute and pretty than they're unmatched in a show to me . but i only talk about visual .

Seems like your ranking of round two almost perfectly matches mine. You know what the funniest thing about Kep1er is? Yujin, currently 25 years old, debuted in 2015 and thus has now 7 years experience in the spotlight. But the youngest member, Yeseo, who is 16, has had a way longer career. She debuted as a child actress in 2010 and as an idol a bit later that same year. She was 5 years old at the time. So more than 11 years of experience at this point. You mispronouncing Eunha as Younha is funny because there's actually another singer called Younha. I think Hyolyn had the choice to do just one of the two positions but being the way she is, obviously decided to take on both. When choosing the next competition show, don't forget about Road to Kingdom. That was a version of Kingdom for smaller, lesser known groups and the winner of RtK got to compete against the big groups on Kingdom. Haseul trained in opera singing for a while, so she has a very unique vocal style. Sad she's so underutilised in most Loona songs. I pretty much agree with all the members they sent into these unit battles. Maybe WJSN Dayoung would have been another great choice for vocal but Yeonjung and Soobin are gonna do great regardless. Loona's choice for dancers is exactly who I would've picked. Yves is arguably their main dancer but anyone who's seen their dance covers of BTS Fire and NCT 127 Cherry Bomb knows how amazing Heejin, Choerry and Olivia Hye are. As they mentioned, Xiaoting is an experienced ballroom dancer, even winning some prizes in international competitions at 16(?) years old. Ooh, is someone starting to fall for Heejin? You know, as frustrating as it was to see Loona's dance unit being pushed around, spite is a pretty damn good motivator. And they can also use that to elevate Brave Girls out of last place. Yeah, I'm also really curious about what the time frame for unit selections was. Did the vocalists just wait the entire time until the dance units were finished so that Hyolyn could join? I'm really glad that Hyolyn decided to stick to Minyoung here. They're the two best vocalists here IMO and they're going to tear this apart. But in general it was nice how much smoother the team selection went for the vocal units. Oh My Girl's The Fifth Season is amazing and super emotional to me but singing it slowly doesn't really work. The magic of that song comes from it's grand, almost orchestral feel and epic scale. Not really suitable for a slow ballad. I honestly love the Loona X Kep1er unit name. Sun and Moon fits thematically but it also has a really nice ring to it in Korean. 해와 달 (Haewa dal) just sounds really nice to my ears. I think that Minyoung's confidence just took a huge hit from the rankings in the first two rounds. Like I said, I think she's the second best vocalist in this competition, right after Hyolyn but these low rankings have probably made her doubt her abilities. So I'm very happy that Hyolyn is doing what she can to lift Minyoung out of this hole. Haseul has a blueish grey color in her hair. Hyolyn and Minyoung interrupting their interim performance just before the main high note. Don't wanna give everything away immediately, right? I really hope these two win this unit battle. I just need something good to happen to Brave Girls already. Really enjoyed this episode. And I'm also really hungry, so I'm gonna go and make myself a sandwich.

In my opinion "Kingdom: Legendary War" would definitely be worth a watch. It feels quite different to Queendom, the boygroups bring a different vibe and it is structured a bit differently. Even though I have only seen the first two episodes up to now. As long as you don't forget Dreamcatcher Mind ;)

DG on the first season i think than you're prediction , and analyse was pretty well even if you got clearly biased by (G)IDLE you're instinct was pretty good . now in this season you seems tom much biased . how can you even imagine than LOONA and KEP1ER could be number one ???you change for HYOLIN at the end but that the only thig pretty obvious in that show .HYOLIN is one of the very best singer in korea even out of the kpop field she's a diva only maybe 4 or 5 girls in korea can battle with her vocaly and she's with MINYEONG so the only way than they lose the vocal battle is a special factor ( MINYEONG or her can be sick or if they badly mess they're performance ) and even if MINYEONG mess a bit you know than they will win for sure . on paper in korea most of people predicte HYOLIN /MINYEONG first YEONJUNG / SOOBIN / EUHNA second and LOONA /KEP1ER third . they got great voice but they got no powerful vocalist like WJSN YEONJUNG (WJSN ) she's the best vocalist on the show after HYOLIN and EUHNA is pretty good to . so only the the song choice can made a difference for the second place .for LOONA ( , kim lip, jinsoul are great for the harmony but they got all distinct sweet voice ot very impactful ) CHUU is very great but she can't battle with YEONJUNG for KEP1ER CHAHEYUN can belt very well she's a great singer and YONGEUN can also harmonize . so on paper

Yay! New chair! Good to hear. You have to take care because you are making quite some hours. "Now that I know who's going to win, do you still want me to react to Kingdom?" Yes, definitely. Speaking for myself, these shows aren't about who'll win. Make sure to watch Road to Kingdom first though. It may feature groups that are a little bit lesser known, but some of the performances really blew my mind. The groups in Kingdom took it even further when it comes to props/stages/camera work/etc. Maybe it's just me but why does "Queen Manager" always sound like "The Queen's little helper"? 😅 You know, like Taeyeon's +1. As if he's not a real host of the show, but just a.... manager. At least in Queendom 1 the hosts called themselves "Queen" and "Dom". A bit corny yes, but at least they felt equal. Wait, am I being a "mannist" now? So when your aircon switches, your capture card shows black frames? And when you turn on the light the tv gets turned on as well? I'm getting very curious now. What happens when you make some coffee? Or when you microwave something? And does it work both ways? So when you turn on the tv, do the lights go out? That might actually be a good thing though. Ok, back to the show. Personally I didn't like the way the dance units got formed. I think it was unfair towards the groups with the lowest scores. For example Loona ending up with the choreo they least wanted to do. I think this interferes with all groups having the same chance of winning the round (and the argument "because this is Queendom" is pretty lame). Now that I think about it, the same was true in the previous round where the winner had dibs on who they wanted to cover. Which ended up with the lowest scoring groups (Kep1er and Brave Girls) having to cover each other, and lo-and-behold they ended up at the bottom again. I mean, I'm not saying that they would've won if they could cover the song they wanted but at least it would have given them a better chance. So I would prefer a more fair system. For example: every group reveals their preferred choice. In case of overlap you flip a coin or something. I have to give you extra points for your humming of Apink's Dilemma. I really liked how Kep1er and Loona sang I.O.I.'s Downpour. It's a very beautiful and emotional song (because it was their disbandment song and they were sort of a "super" group) and they sang it beautifully. All in all, great episode where you got to see a little bit of their characters (especially WJSN's Dayoung and Loona's Chuu like I was hoping for in my comment on the previous episode. I can recommend watching an episode or two of Chuu's show "Chuu can do it", or (G)-Idle Yuqi's show "Learnway" season 1, or Lovelyz' Mijoo's show "Learnway" season 2). Also great reaction. I especially liked how you called out some Blink reactions. It gave me a better understanding of what reactors have to deal with.

Since you asked for potential follow-up shows to react to, I can recommend: - Dreamcatcher Mind (sorry I'm biased) - Good Girl - Idol Drama Team - Mamamoo x G-Friend Showtime Shows with older idols: - Mama the idol - Miss Back Rap: - Unpretty Rapstar Competition shows: - Girl's Planet 999 (forms Kep1er) - My Teenage Girl (forms Classy. Soyeon is a judge) - Produce 101 (forms I.O.I.) - Mixnine (forms... nothing. Thnx YG) - Sixteen (forms Twice) - Nizi Project (forms NiziU)

DC Mind will happen regardless of Queendom, and possibly starting next week but not sure yet =D

Glad to finally be catching up on watching this with you!!! I really like how they changed up the unit performances this time! It was really cool and fun! A little meaner mnet always trying to start fights but it was funny! The vocal units were so good it was actually hard for me to choose but Hyolyn and Minyoung actually brought me to tears so they are my number 1 then the other two units are literally even for me I loved them both. The harmonies with Loona and Kep1er were my favorite but the actual stage of WJSN with ViviZ was so beautiful it was my favorite so hard to choose! Can't wait to catch up and watch the dance units with you! Also thank you for the brief monolog in the beginning I fully agreed. I was actually crying watching the show live and seeing Brave Girls so down after receiving last place. When she asked if they were really that bad I was screaming No at my TV!!! Im pretty sure I ranked ViviZ last as well.

Your Thnx YG is so accurate. I felt bad for all the selected idols. It wad such a waste
