The show was criticized for looking “cheap” and for other reasons, such as allegedly rigged.
The finale of the show aired on November 22 and the five members of the group were announced. Lea Navvab HueningTXT’s big sister Huening Kai AND Kep1er‘S Huening Baiyyih…
…Cleo…
…Sim Yerin…
…Lu Yuting…
…AND Kelly Kim they were all announced as members.
However, many viewers shared their issues with the show’s top choice, Kelly Kim. Fans usually debate placements on survival shows, but a show’s number one pick is typically not one that viewers believe shouldn’t be in the group at all.
Time Turner viewers expressed this sentiment towards Kelly Kim, providing clips of her “poor” performances, referring to her as a “dozen”, a slang term meant to mean that the individual has no talent, i.e. doesn’t sing , he can’t dance.

At least 4 out of 5 are good. Kelly Kim would have to do a complete 180 and be the hardest worker I’ve ever seen, to change my mind about her https://t.co/IRzQ5gFcoZ
