[UPDATE] As someone who *actually* went to the live finale
OKAY. Since nobody believed my first post sharing that I went to the live finale (and someone even thought I was hired by HYBE to say this????), I’ve attached the poster we got with my reddit user. Yes, I’ve been rooting for Sakura since I saw the performance. Yes, I’m thrilled she was picked for the final piece based on my impressions of both contestants live. No, I don’t think she deserves any of the awful comments she’s been getting on social media.
There’s a different energy you get when you see a performance live, and as party b4 the party was the very first concept we saw from this project Ever, it has a special place in my heart! The crowd went absolutely nuts a few seconds into the performance, and since we knew nothing about the contestants besides a brief blurb about them, something about the underdog story really tugged at my heartstrings. Wishing the group all the best, and can’t wait to see what new bangers they come out with.
And please, think before you say something online, have a little heart 🫂 !
