low key #things

let's begin, UNB!

Yesterday my ult group had their final concert.

Let me rant a little about all the feelings I felt towards this group and the survival show they were formed from. I'm not good at expressing myself but I'll try.

First I just want to say that The Unit is the best show to ever have created and I will never stop rewatching it.

I started watching this show because my long time favorites Bigstar were in it but in the end, I had fallen for all 63 boys.

I just loved the concept so much and I wished it would have received even half of the attention P101 did. It was done so much better, no unnecessary evil editing (except a small case), a lot of screentime for trainees' daily lives and practices and the best coaches.

Also in comparison to P101, the trainees were all very talented. All of them had already trained for many years, some of them had even been debuted for close to ten years. They all really deserved the second chance. For some of them, this was the last chance to make music and perform in Korea.

KBS treated the trainees well and they all got paid for the episodes they appeared in - which must be a big deal to the ones who had never even made any money as an idol.

I had my own favorites who I wanted to make it in the final line-up (I have like 40 faves already but there were still the special ones who I really wanted to succeed). Some of them made it and some didn't and to be honest, at first I didn't like the final line-up a lot. There were some members I wanted to switch out and bring my ults in instead.

During this short journey I got to experience with UNB, I learned to appreciate all the members as a group. Since they were all from different groups, they were all individual and had their own talents which was so refreshing to see.

The friendship between them was so real, they were united by the desperation of wanting to gain success they never had and which they could only achieve together. Even if all nine of them will go separate ways now and continue with their own groups, I wish they can keep in touch and some day still reunite.

Feeldog's group which he is the leader of, debuted in 2012 but they have been very unknown since. Bigstar hasn't gotten much attention and Brave has therefore basically forgotten them. Their last comeback was in 2015 and after that, they have had nothing to do. Feeldog is mad talented in every aspect and I'm so happy he was able to show his talents at least a little more through UNB. He has said he is thankful because with UNB he got to have a concert in Korea for the first time since his debut so his parents could finally come watch him :") Bigstar's contract is ending soon and Feeldog will enlist at some point but I hope some day we will be able to see more of him, doing what he does best.
