O23 — lee dinah | jellyfish

KANG MINA | HOST: next up are the pledis girls

the girls from pledis got hyped up from the side and entered the stage

sakura as yeji
sohyun as eunbin
reina as yubin
nari as dayeon
yein as yujeong

HASEUL | V.MENTOR: most of you were pretty stable, i haven't expected less than this girls

CIEN | D.MENTOR: and you nari, i thought you're a good dancer. i saw you back at the company dancing well, what happened?

HOWL | R.MENTOR: and all of you rapped, it's impressive seeing all trainees from one company being well rounded.

YANG YEIN | PLEDIS: nari tried her best, but wasn't able to catch up at all as she wasn't feeling well until this morning, cien-sunbaenim

yein and cien had a small starting battle, as both girls trained together and know eachother pretty well. everyone went silent, as yein seemed to have signed her death sentence as brave as she is

CIEN | D.MENTOR: i know you want to stand up for your fellow trainees to protect them yein, but this action can't change the ranks

after everyone calmed down, the hosts got ready to announce the ranks

MARK LEE | HOST: in pandora rank we have...kim sohyun and yang yein

KANG MINA | HOST: in rank b we have...takahashi reina

MARK LEE | HOST: in rank c we have...michiyo sakura

KANG MINA | HOST: in rank x we have...jung nari

INTERVIEW ROOM

❛honestly, i'm glad i got the same rank as yein unnie. but i'm also sad for nari, she did her best, but got a bad rank Just because she had a bad day.❜

— kim sohyun

MARK LEE | HOST: our next trainees are from jellyfish

the girls from jellyfish quickly got up on stage and into position

harlow as yeyoung
jiho as suyeon
dinah as dayeon

HASEUL | V.MENTOR: ah, you chose the same song as the yuehua trainees. judging you while knowing there was another group who ALREADY performed the song is pretty hard

HWAN | MENTOR: the only one who could be heared the most were you, harlow. you were pretty stable, but the other have to work on their stability

CIEN | D.MENTOR: i saw all of you tried your best, but you had a very hard time performing. the choreography was a bit too hard for all three of you

LUAN | MENTOR: your rap was quite charismatic dinah, this seems promising to me. even tho you're lacking in stability, this is what makes it still interesting

KANG MINA | HOST: here we go with your ranks. in rank pandora there's...no one

MARK LEE | HOST: in rank b we have...lee dinah

KANG MINA | HOST: in rank c we have...harlow jung and ha jiho

— harlow jung

KANG MINA | HOST: second to last we've got the trainees from brand new music

the girls from brand new music quickly got on stage right after the jellyfish girls sat down again

chaerin as jeongmin
hyunjoo as chaehyun
nahee as yoonji

HWAN | MENTOR: everything went pretty well for you hyunjoo, despite making a small mistake. but that's okay, we were able to see that you tried your best

CIEN | D.MENTOR: hyunjoo and nahee, both of you were pretty much in sync, but chaerin seemed to be off to me

LUAN | MENTOR: there wasn't a rap at all, but i hope we can hear you rap next time, nahee and chaerin

❛i don't know how to feel...i can't feel happy at all as nahee and chaerin got lower ranks than me..i hope they aren't too disappointed, i know they will improve.❜
— bae hyunjoo

MARK LEE | HOST: last but not least, please come on stage happyface trainees

the girls from happyface nodded and entered the stage

yuri as dayeon
apsara as doah
vivian as hyerim
jieun as sunwoo

HASEUL | V.MENTOR: vivian and jieun, both of you did well. your vocals were clean, but there's still room to improve

CIEN | D.MENTOR: apsara, vivian and jieun, the three of you are also quite strong dancers. but yuri, you seemed to struggle a bit with the choreography

LUAN | MENTOR: apsara, you did also great as a rapper, i enjoyed that.

LUAN & HOWL | MENTORS: but yuri, rap isn't your cup of tea, even tho we saw someone had to rap a small part

both luan and howl looked at each other and started laughing as they realized they thought and said the exact same at the same time

KANG MINA | HOST: let's get to the last ranks. in rank pandora, we've got...apsara suprija

MARK LEE | HOST: in rank b we've got...kim jieun
