Viewers watched on the broadcast as the two rappers, Saoi and Bluescreen—whose rap names were frankly awful—prepared their stage. What surprised people wasn’t that Saoi was good at music. It was that he adjusted to Bluescreen. He sampled sources from music Bluescreen liked and built the beat with the BPM he preferred. Even the theme…

The WWDC broadcast ended smoothly. The online streaming platform hit the viewership numbers they had expected and earned the profits they had projected. Of course, the company may have quietly hoped for a breakout success—but that didn’t happen. The interesting thing was that just as many viewers were hardcore Apple fans as there were core…

Of course, not all viewers believed Harmless Electrolyte was Lee Ion. There were still those who shook their heads. After all, even with Goo Taehwan, many insisted he couldn’t possibly be an idol until he unmasked. -Here we go again lol -Aren’t you tired of calling anyone who sings well an idol? But Lee Ion was in…

Of course, there was a ton of work to be done for that to happen, and I couldn’t be sure everything would align perfectly. There were so many factors required for SBI Entertainment to devour Lion Entertainment’s place. But as a returnee, I knew one truth. No—I should say I felt it. It’s simple. If…

What was he trying to say? Of course, that fight back then was started by Fade. Fade was obviously showing a bad attitude, and the Sedalbaekil members were walking on eggshells because of it.

The regular peak ratings? Around the mid-6% range. But Show Me brought in far more revenue than those numbers suggested. As a foundational piece of Korea’s party culture…

The moment Sa-oh-ee’s rap ended, all the judges had the same expression. Surprise. Admiration. And curiosity. Who was this person? What kind of face was hiding behind that weird paper bag to be this good? Of course, from a personal taste standpoint, not every judge was fully into Sa-oh-ee’s rap. Notably, DD and Dino were in awe of the…

The first evaluation round, held for all contestants, was a crucial part of Show Me. That’s why the majority of episode 2 was still dedicated to showing the first round of evaluations. Out of the 100-minute broadcast, about 65 minutes were spent on round one, with 20 minutes used for mid-episode commercials and judge-related cuts. That…

Absurdly enough, even after the mask was taken off, the screen didn’t show the face for a while. Instead, it captured a wide shot of the shocked panel and audience members behind the real Original, overlapping still cuts from the past stage over their stunned expressions. -What the f**k, this is seriously too much. -These…
