IZONE News and Discussion Thread

This is actually what I think happened, and the person who "discovered" the information is just trying to get dem likes, yo!

Here is an assumed time line based on the conspiracy theory:

First event: Flights booked for "winners" of Produce 48
Second event (a later date): "Winners" revealed during "LIVE" broadcast which "supposedly" took "LIVE" voting into account.

Do you see how the conspiracy theorists could easily believe that MNET knew who won before they won? The big deal was that it was a LIVE VOTE during the final day, as in the results should NOT be known until the end of the finale. But the flights were purchased in advance of the finale.

I do not believe in this particular conspiracy, but it is actually incredibly easy to understand why others might. Personally, I think MNET purchased tickets for all 20 in order to secure the spot for each one just in case they won, and in the event they did not win, they cancelled the ticket. Easy peasy. Simple. Not rigged.

But it's really easy to understand why people who want to see a conspiracy can see one.

 

Hoping that their songs will have a Japanese vibe to it, just like the song tbey performed in last ep produced by aki-P. I forgot the name of the song.

 

You mean this song ("Suki ni Nacchau Darou?")?

if the video does not show watch the video here

Yeah, I've been listening to this song on repeat (unsurprisingly), so I would be perfectly happy if most of IZ*ONE's songs are like this. Plus I want to see how the Korean members improve on their Japanese and same with the three 48G members and their Korean.

 

Narita airport arrival. Look at the crowd

Looks like paparazzi culture is finally seeping into japan as well.

 

^ yeah, both the fans and the security literally don't know what to do lol

 

It's probably going to get more chaotic from this point onwards.

 

so, they will debut at the end of october huh? what about their reality show? will it air during sept-oct before their debut or after their debut?

 

Just form the group and the crowds will come...

 

Can we keep the rigged-cospiracy theories in the PD48 thread and use this for IZONE post PD48? It's quite tiring reading the same things over and over in both. Thank you.

Security need to step up their game, that's not paparazzi culture, that's bad organization

Speaking of organization... IZONE will live in the former dorm of fromis_9 I'm not sure where my babies are gonna sleep now but Izone will stay in Pleadis building for sure.

 

Do those leakers and like-farming troops know what it means by flexible and cancellable tickets?

 

Sorry can't do that because I've been banned from that thread before the show even began
--
Isn't it popular for people to book last minute because it's often cheaper and not the other way around where booking earlier is cheaper? Depending on what airline you booked from, you might not even get money back if you cancel a few days before or at least a very small percentage. Let's assume that the girls are flying Korean Air. I just checked and you actually get charged a certain refund penalty if you cancel 3 days before. Now, have that amount times 8.

 

no, i hope this one will not continued anymore specially to 3 japanese members. imagine if this continue whenever sakura, nako, hiichan go in japan, we will see a fan taken pics. we all know that their fans have seen them in their private time but never took a photo or even have a little conversation, in short, they respect idol's private time... even in airport, before pd48 you can't see any 48g members airport pics in narita now, there's a tons of it.

 

Just updated the wiki page for IZONE: http://stage48.net/wiki/index.php/IZONE
Now I need to know that should I create wiki pages for Korean members or not? Please answer me fast as you guys can.

 

^ i would like to vote for yes, korean members deserve their s48wiki page. this is for the future fans after 2.5years contract that their idol were once have a collab with 48g..

 

yeah do it

 

OK, I will do it!!

 

Usually Japanese K-pop fangirls stans go to airport to welcome their bias, so not surprised if it happened

 

I don''t think that has ever happened to TWICE or BTS. Not 100% sure if it even happened to KARA/SNSD.

 

That's why you buy flight insurance.

Same here. I was on a flight from Korea back to the US and I was on the same flight as B2ST. I'd say there were a good 50 or so people at every juncture. For a normal person, who had no idea what was happening, it would have been incredibly frustrating and annoying. The same happened when I arrived once in Manila around the same time as a popular actor.

As for Twice and BTS, they prolly use VIP gate
