All their title songs are amazing though its a shame that they got their first win just recently since 2016, but its a great news to all Fantasys.

I dont particularly want to see another Kingdom ever again, but Im still glad we got one. The Boyz Sunwoo picks up on the edgy schtick as well, pointing out some funny tropes in a very self-aware moment. 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. Warning: This recap is not spoiler-free. They were the only one that was so smooth and they definitely had fun in that performance.

And though Kingdom Come is one of my favorite songs of this round, I think it deserved a more inventive concept. On April 8, Mnet aired the second . 6. Stray kids won this competition. Stray kids get extra points just for that. But, they havent really blown me away throughout Kingdom. All the pre-recorded stuff really took the momentum out of the performance, unfortunately. Thats sadly true but I believe in international iKONics giving their full support to the boys. Sf9 and Ikon were okay. 1. They explore jazz but cant scat and likewise label it is as a concept.

Main rapper Minhyuk filled the other vocalists part which is a big twist even though Melodys are already aware of his beautiful voice. One of the rap parts in Miroh ended up being slightly off-tempo. (The bottom half are all pretty close to me.) The stray kids x the boyz x ateez inter-group friendship was also very funny to watch, heres to more of such interactions in the future! Shoutout to BTOB for doing something different I think a more creative spin on the ballad style or more knockout vocals would have made it work even better. I wish they hadnt kept apologizing afterwards, though. Ateezs is the only one I see myself returning to just for fun (and Ive rewatched it several times already lol). All of the groups were amazing that I excitedly watched their performances all throughout. I tried to search for the song title on Melon and there was a song with the name but different lyrics.

As with all the groups, I think their Kingdom run has been hit or miss, but generally on the strong side. Even if I havent always cared for their performances, iKON have been one of the most entertaining groups to watch on Kingdom. 3rd Round: No Limit Part 1 (Ep. I hope theyll show more diverse stages than the RTK groups especially considering how good the cast is, stomp stomps and vigorous arm movements Voting via the Whosfan app for the round started from April 15 at 22:00 (KST) and closed on April 18 at 23:59 (KST). After the first boy group has performed, they will decide on the second performing boy group, and the second boy group that has performed will then decide on the third performing boy group. Come to think of it, wasnt it the same in Road to Kingdom? Im happy to hear them in any venue, survival show or not. Im very thankful that iKON was part of this show, mostly thanks to their atittude which help lossen up the atmosphere ( and a bit of exposure they gained). SF9 Am I the only one that just really really really misses Queendom? *Collaboration stage: team Mayflay (Ateez, Stray Kids, BtoB) vs team Its One (iKon, The Boys, SF9), Rap Unit: To relieve stress, fatigue and injury, the guys rent out Everland that amusement park you always see on Korean variety shows.

I dont have a lot of commentary on this, except to say that these are the kind of collaborations Kingdom was made for. Proceed at your own risk! iKON FTW, always! I just think their team used up their best ideas during Road to Kingdom. 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. Learn how your comment data is processed. But, Ill brave all the rankings and re-rankings for you, because thats what I do. 1st place: Mayfly: Hongjoong (Ateez), Bang Chan, Changbin, Han (Stray Kids), Minhyuk (BtoB) The first performing boy group is decided by the latter boy group who will themselves be performing last. Some performances were fantastic and transcending (Its Raining and a few others) in a way that was very authentic to them, but I feel too bored at the end because of all the other performances. From the beginning with Hwiyoung-Taeyang dance to the human tree to the Youngbin-Chani dance to Taeyangs spins. Thank you for this review! 2nd place: BTOB 3,598.703 Both just didnt show me anything new. This kind of hype track can really benefit from a live performance. I guess it also hinges on which acts have fan bases that are dedicated to this kind of voting. We only got to see numbers 5, 4 and 3. Who do you think will take the rest of the slots?

Does it mean something? The last performances for Round 1 of KINGDOM: LEGENDARY WAR were released on April 15 along with the first half of the results. Especially the first part of The Stealer remix was very disappointing. I had a lot of fun reading it. The Boyz This performance had a surprising amount of leapfrogging! BTOB 3. It was a tie to their story on Kingdom and RTK, and deobis have been building theories since their first performance. However, I wish this performance leaned more heavily into its choir-like introduction. 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. 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. The song sounded better alongside a performance, but coming after last weeks triumphant Move, the finished product felt a little underwhelming. Thats just a loud version of boring.. Voting Criteria: My guess is Peh-nee-ell. "Kingdom" Reveals Fan Voting Results From Round 2 + Groups - Soompi TBZ was good and are good contenders to the crown, but I for future episodes, I dont want to hear the Stealer or Reveal.

The performances were aired via live stream on February 23, 2021, through Mnet's YouTube channel. I am baffled that so many people dont consider the top performance belonging to Stray Kids. The Boyz have been very up-and-down throughout Kingdom a completely different experience from their consistent dominance on Road to Kingdom. Required fields are marked *. I feel like after seeing their RTK performances, my standards are just really high for them. 25% expert panel score Most of the RTK/Kingdom performances feel like I could be watching any mediocre year end awards ceremony, but there was something more special and charming about Queendom. The Boyz The Korean notation tells that the pronounciation is /peu-nee-el/. For too long, it just felt like they were jumping around without any real storytelling. The event also includes those sentimental video messages that tend to pop up during the last episodes of survival series. Okay okay. Watch episode 7 of 'Kingdom: Legendary War' to know the current rankings of Stray Kids, ATEEZ, BTOB, iKON, SF9 and THE BOYZ. Its so overused and its so far away from November. The Boyz love playing on the theme of Kingdom, and elements of this can grow a bit stale. Im not sure many of the performances tonight will have the same longevity. Last year's Road to Kingdom was a bumpy road for sure, with one particular pothole that still has me feeling PTSD. But, alongside the rest of the acts, BTOB stands out in all the right ways. All groups had their ups and downs, and my rankings changed week to week. Disbanded Kpop Boy Groups The guys are always way too damn serious. Who is Who: Kpop Boy Groups 3. The song built to a rousing, shout-along finale. Being humble is good, but so is confidence. The guys look back at some of their stages, highlighting funny anecdotes. I loved the ballet section during the climax. Thankfully, after receiving some throat spray, Inseong is now able to laugh about his Spark bum note during the unit performance round. Despite their relative youth, I think theyre clear contenders for the crown. Personally, they werent underwhelming (because some of the others were too OVERwelming) I believe there needs to be better vocalists in the industry. SF9 3. (he says in a dramatic, echoed voice). Theyll all likely make comebacks within the next one to three months, and Im eager to see if they stick with their pre-Kingdom trajectory or try something new. 4th place: BtoB 5,394.684 points 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. 4. Im not so sure about that, but Im definitely rooting for them. Honestly I felt Eukwang carried most of the humor of the show(as well as Ateez Wooyoung). 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. Im glad that this show ended already, because of stress and mess for the fan bases. Last week, "Kingdom" revealed half of the results for the preliminary battle, and at the beginning of this week's episode, the show announced that the winner was Stray Kids.

After twenty minutes, nothing has happened. Sometimes, things are just meant to be enjoyed rather than be used as work-time. Not just in Kingdom btw. Cant wait for them to comeback some time. However, Im still eager to learn more about these guys, and I hope theyre able to push themselves and explore new sides to their music. I feel like this is going to be a season where none of the groups are able to perform as a complete unit. Next weeks stages look like theyll be cool which is fun. solo comeback, it is bittersweet to see iKon kinda strike out on Kingdom. Personally, when I first saw the performance it was a bit underwhelming but after watching it more, Ive come to love it, and the dance break with Q in the front was just amazing. Performing without Mingi is always going to be hard. Congrats to Stray Kidz. I personally liked iKONs and BTOBs performance the best!!! And it was so cool to see all the boys shouting the groups name after the performance was over. The boyz and skz gave me the same feeling. I am not a RTK/Kingdom watcher, so Im going to use these recaps to kindof see whats going on. Kind of remarkable how much worse this was compared to Road to Kingdom. Its so cheesy, and I think the performance wouldve benefitted from embracing that cheese rather than attempting to be serious. But even with all the strained edginess, the staging for this was pretty fantastic. But, they did a decent job reaffirming their theatricality as a group. 4th place: BTOB 1,444.444 points (333.333 + 1,111+111) Why couldnt they have performed Take Me Home instead?!? In an intense finale, the K-pop bands left to compete for the crown were: SF9, Stray Kids, ATEEZ, BTOB, and iKON. Other Recaps: Episode One // Episode Two // Episode Three // Episode Four // Episode Five // Episode Six // Episode Seven // Episode Eight // Episode Nine. . On a different note, Produce 101 Japan S2 has released their theme song Let Me Fly.. Are you going to review it? Im a fan of Ateez, & while i didnt enjoy their intro stage a lot (I didnt have high expectations heading in either, just bc theyd been so busy with a cb I didnt see how theyd be able to prepare enough) it was still a little crushing to see them rank 5th with fan votes. It just looked very well made in my opinion, and Im so happy theyre done with this show. You cant start at eleven and stay there the entire time. I really loved iKONs performance. Its dejavu all over again. I think thats what makes stage more interesting to watch. The six groups will compete against each other and release music on streaming sites simultaneously. Now overall it just seems like nowdays kpop groups doing performances with more money. So maybe not relieving the fatigue?? Im scared that this round and next round is just gonna all be so dramatic and filled with shock-factor. In last week's episode, the first half of the Round 1 results were released: 25% from the expert votes + 25% from self-evaluation. I also think the choreography was a bit more nuanced than many of the groups, and the special effects were used really well.
