Because of that I practiced even harder
Later if get to I debut and go on broadcasts

but just Kim Taeha, and I'd like that
JKS: Let's see the performance you've prepared
Yu Yeunjung: Our audience isn't just the 100 people here
Kim Taeha: Because it seems like the 100 people behind us are evaluating us
Yu Yeunjung: I was nervous and shaking
♫ Sistar - I Swear ♫
Kim Doyeon: They did really well
Jung Chaeyeon: They did well
Jeon Soyeon: I was surprised at how well they did
JKS: The stage we're seeing today is
to determine how we should organize the training
We are not evaluating whether you can stand on the next stage or not
that's something that the nation will decide for themselves.
What we're discussing is how to organize the training system so
that you can get trained a bit more systematically
We're going to try to find that line.
KSE: They all have good singing ability
Jea: This vocal is...
JKS: You're going to regret that

JKS: We'll announce the individual grades for Starship trainees.

Trainees entering the stage one by one
"No, no, this way!"
Only one without a sense of direction
Who is the trainee wandering around looking for the entrance?
JKS: Can the next trainee please come in
She's from an acting agency
Kim Sohye: Hello, I'm Kim Sohye from Redline Entertainment
Cheetah: She's cute
Jea: Oh no she's cute
Cheetah: She's really cute
Kim Sohye: Our agency is an agency that trains actors
At the very beginning, my company told me that there would be acting as well
so I said "Oh, really?" and went to 'Produce 101' but...
Staff: What kind of training are you doing right now?
Kim Sohye: I'm just practicing acting
Staff: This show is to form a girl group
flustered
Kim Sohye: So ah.. what should I do
should I do this show or not?
I thought about it a lot but in the end I came out on 'Produce 101'
thinking that this is also an opportunity
JKS: But there's something I'm curious about.
What do trainees learn in an agency of actors?
.....we learn acting
JKS: Then let's see a bit of acting
girl group members these days have to be good at acting too
Staff: What kind of training are you doing right now?
I'm just practicing acting
Cheetah: Oh my I think she's acting right now
Jea: Is she doing a ghost?
JKS: For some reason I think it'd be better if she didn't do this
Cheetah: Don't do something strange, don't do something strange
Jea: Don't do something scary
BYJ: Oh my gosh!
Yoonsu...
I told you not to do that!
JKS: I think she and I have similar personalities so
BYJ: She has a kookiness to her
But I mean that in a good way
So don't be hurt by it
JKS: Let's look at your stage now
Kim Sohye: I'm going to hope that I'm not the worst and try my best
so even if I don't hear "Wow she's great"
I want to do well enough to hear something like "She's doing pretty well!"
but that's not something that'll just happen
♫ DIA - Somehow ♫
Jung Chaeyeon: I was so surprised
because our song came on
What will Red Line Kim Sohye's level test result be?
BYJ: Your skill is unbelieavable
I'm starting to question why are you even here
This level isn't even a level that I can evaluate
JKS: We saw it well, you get a F
Redline level test result
Kim Sohye - F
Staff: Are you crying because you got an F?
Kim Sohye: No
I promised my mom I wouldn't cry here...
Of course I want to hear things like "that was cool" but because I couldn't
honestly, none of that matters just...
It'd be nice if people could see that
I really want to do this...
After Redline Kim Sohye
the next agency is?
Trainer Bae Yoonjung has discovered something
BYJ: The kids coming out now are part of an existing girl group
JKS: Oh?
Kahi: What?
Incumbent girl group
at Produce 101 trainee survival?
Kahi: DIA?
Jea: Oh? They're still active right now? Why would they come out?
Before reports of withdrawal
Stirring at the appearance of girl group DIA
Girls: Hello, we're MBK trainees
Ki Heehyun
Dani
and Chaeyeon
Please take care of us
Lee Jinhee: Why are they here when it hasn't been long since they debuted?
Kim Nayoung: I really liked DIA
I even watched their performances so i was so surprised to see them
4 months into debut
rumors of 2 members suddenly withdrawing from DIA
DIA, 2 members leave 3 months after debut
DIA members Chaeyeon-Cathy group promotions suspended
DIA... 7 members --> 5 members
Chaeyeon - Cathy... redoing debut with 'Produce 101'
Chaeyeon - Cathy, joining 'Produce 101' was their own intention
Giving up activities
Why they joined Produce 101?
JKS: You're part of a group called DIA? When did you debut?
Cathy: This year...
Chaeyeon: We debuted on Sep 14.
JKS: If you debuted in September you should be completely busy with activities right now
So why did you come here to be with trainees?
Cathy: We auditioned to the show before we debuted
I felt I was lacking a lot while promoting in DIA
This might be hard but since I have more experience as a trainee
it would be nice if I could return again with a good image.
Chaeyeon: I saw that I was lacking so much when I saw my stages
so I talked to my company and came on 'Produce 101'
JKS: We'll see the performance MBK has prepared.
Ham Yeji: I thought 'they'll be different' since they've had promotions
Eunbean: They're just completely different people
I'm expecting a lot and I really wanna see their stage
Cathy: I'm most worried about being compared to others, since I've already debuted
There will definitely be people thinking "how good will they be?"
So that's why I tried so hard but it was more nerve-wracking than I thought it would be
♫ miss A - Bad Girl Good Girl ♫
Somi: I was a bit disappointed because the proficiency of singers who have already debuted wasn't really shown
Heo Chanmi: I was anticipating it but was even more disappointed
Kahi: We saw it well because you worked hard
Dani: Thank you
Kahi: But
it was very messy.
BYJ: First of all, I've been with these three girls since they were trainees
I thought that girl Dani was someone who just could not dance at all
JKS: So she wasn't born with that ability?
BYJ: After watching this stage I realized that dancing and singing are things that can be achieved with practice
I became sure of that after watching Dani today
JKS: Seeing you dance I thought you were born with that skill
BYJ: Dani! You've succeeded!
Dani: Originally I really couldn't dance, sing or rap
but since being a singer is my goal and dream I practiced really hard
Opportunity to debut in 2012
Dani was going to be the 9th member of T-ara
Dani, early recruitment in place of Hwayoung
Dani recruitment announcement, Hwayoung's exit, T-ara reshuffle
T-ara, new member Dani recruitment "plans to promote as 8 members"
T-ara without Hwayoung, 14 year old Dani joins to promote as 8 members
Dani: There were some incidents
and articles popped up, so suddenly my debut fell through
I began thinking 'is being a singer not my path?'
I think I cried when practicing became difficult
This is a chance for me to do well if I work hard
I want to go to the end
and debut
Kahi: We'll announce the individual grades for MBK trainees.
First A
Cathy: Ah...Will I still be able to receive A?
There are none.
Kim Dani - B
Dani: Thank you
And no more.
MBK level test results
B - Kim Dani, C - Cathy, Chaeyeon
Cathy: I was unable to show a good image again
and I thought that I failed to meet expectations again
I'm sorry

Are they doing 3 member unit group TTS's Twinkle concept?!
Heo Chanmi: Ah... for some reason I think they'll have strong skills
Eunbean: Jellyfish artists can sing really well
Kim Sohye: Feels like a company with good singers?
Kim Sejeong: It's a lie to say I don't feel burdened
Kim Nayoung: People are expecting a lot from us
I feel like we need to overcome that
♫ Nikki Yanofsky - Something New ♫
Cheetah: They're good
BYJ: They're doing well
KSE: I'm loving it
Cheetah: What was that? What was that?
BYJ: She gave out chocolates or something
Jea: Oh so cute I love it
Chaekyung: I thought I was listening to an AR
Ham Yeji: It was a stage that made me feel Jellyfish's dignity one more time
KSE: Oh~ My ears feel refreshed
Jea: First of all, Ms. Nayoung and Ms. Sejeong
I heard it so gleefully, your voices are so refreshing
Kahi: To be honest...
To be honest, i got the feeling of a girl group that already debuted
It was good
KSE: How did you rate the other girls?
BYJ: Is there someone you want to hear sing?
KSE: This one... This one... I think we need to hear her one more time
JKS: Ms Kang Mina... let's hear a song.
Kang Mina: A song... Wait...
Singing because of a sudden request from the trainers
BYJ: Look at her expression, she is acting cute
Cheetah: What?
BYJ: She is acting cute
Jea: We heard well
JKS: Done?

Jellyfish level test results
All Jellyfish trainees - A
JKS: Oh good~ good~
We all got As thank you so much we'll work hard
Sejeong: While practicing we, how should I say this, it's a self-battle
but hearing 'You're doing well' from someone else for the first time makes me
feel "Ah I've been doing well all this time I wasn't doing something wrong"
It felt like a sigh of relief
A trainee is...
Trainee
Kim Dani: I've been a trainee for 4 years and 9 months
Kim Hyeongeun: I've been a trainee for about 7 years
Heo Chanmi: I've been a trainee for a total of 10 years...
Chaekyung: Truthfully there were many times I wanted to give up
Kim Juna: There are so many things I have to overcome
and so many hills to climb over.
Park Siyeon: The words "I'll be able to see you debut, right?" are a bit...
The endless questions they received
"When are you going to make it?"
"Do you think you can be successful as a singer?"
And the question comes back to them
"Will I be able to debut...?"
Lee Haein: I just feel so small
Choi Yoojung: My skills might be lacking
There are trainees like me
Many trainees who have the same dream
And I'd like it if we were able to show that through the broadcast
The only reason why they decide to endure the trainee life
Their dream
The girls' dreams go on...
Ongoing Produce 101 level test
JKS: Is this 4minute?
4minute's label CUBE

Sejeong: I was looking forward to Cube's trainees
Hwang Insun: Oh, DSP, Kara's agency
Kim Juna: Seems like they'll have impressive talent?
You can feel the anticipation
Large agencies CUBE
Large agencies CUBE and DSP trainees
Jeon Soyeon: I wasn't nervous
kids from our agency, our talents, the look in our eyes
I think things like this give us an advantage over other companies
Shiyoon: I think our agency is the best
and because I'm on 'Produce 101' I have confidence
Chaekyung: We'll work hard and represent DSP, fighting!
JKS: Alright, we'll go on
CUBE going on stage before DSP
Pride of big companies is on the line

♫ 4minute - Crazy ♫
Chaekyung: They did well, even if you were only hearing you could notice
I felt very burdened
Cheetah: Ms. Jeon Soyeon
Could you rap to us?
I'll start with my introduction
18 years almost coming to a close my name got stuck on me
They told me to do something
I'm always confident in a loaded state
no matter what anyone says
I don't ever shy away from anything regarding my work
BYJ: ooh~ what a fox she knows how to rap
JKS: With that level of skill of course she's confident next to other trainees
BYJ: Your energy is awesome
Kahi: She's like 4minute's Jiyoon
I'll
do it!
Jea: We'll announce the individual classes for Cube trainees.

♫ Kara - Mr. ♫

BYJ: Mister is famous for it's butt dance right?
But
But I didn't see the butt dance
The butt dance wasn't seen

JKS: We'll announce the individual classes for DSP trainees.
Jea: We'll announce the individual grades for Cube trainees.
Jea: A..
Jea: Jeon Soyeon, Kwon Eunbean
Cube Jeon Soyeon - Kwon Eunbean: A!

better results than CUBE's trainees!
JKS: D, D..
All DSP trainees: D
Shiyoon: Oh… D…
Shiyoon: At least it wasn't F
I feel thankful if I think of it that way
Chaekyung: /sighs/
Who is the trainee after the large companies?
JKS: 28?
Kahi: 28 years old?
Park Hayi: Hello. I’m Park Hayi, a trainee from Canistar.
JKS: She’s the oldest in Produce 101. 28 years old.
JKS: Her age gap with me is only a year.
BYJ: What’s the point of that?
Kahi: Does that matter?
Jea: Does her age matters?
JKS: I’m not making fun of her by saying she’s old
Kahi: I debuted when I was 29!
Jea: I debuted when I was 26!
Kahi: Why are you being like that?
Park Hayi: “Oldest candidate”…
I was surprised that I would have such a title at this age
Interview
When I do something, people always go like ‘you’re like people from the past’.
It wasn't 'netizens' but 'everybody'
Crew: Isn’t ‘netizen’ a really old term?
I’m someone from the past
Park Hayi: I didn’t know I’d be considered being old in here
Kahi: You don’t look like you’re that age, you look like you’re 21~22
JKS: Trainer Kahi, when did you debut?
Kahi: Why me?! Why?! Why is it always me?!!
Kahi: I told you it was when I was 29!
JKS: There’s someone who became a cool trainer here because she debuted at age of 29.
Don’t feel pressured because of your age.
JKS: We’ll be taking a look at the performance you’ve prepared.
♫ Wonder Girls - Nobody (Rainstone Remix) ♫
BYJ: Did you learn how to dance?
Park Hayi: I was a dancer before.
BYJ: But why did you dance like that?
BYJ: What I’m saying is that you’re going to have to risk your life here.
Jea: Honestly, your age really is not important.
But it'd be nice if you could show us more passion
Jea: Park Hayi from Cani Star
You got a F.
Canistar level test results
Park Hayi - F
BYJ: The other trainees are risking their lives by being here but this isn’t it.
Cheetah: She needed to appeal her strengths more
Agency performances still going on
ecube media's Kim Seola
BYJ: If I'm being honest there was nothing to see regarding that dance
I can’t help but being cold towards them.
If you don’t think you can do it, you should go down a different path
Trainers first meeting
BYJ: I have to help these kids by thinking I’m producing them myself
But the way I talk it kind of… harsh
since I've caught all types of girls before
Harsh trainer Bae Yoon Jung
Her biting remarks are just starting!
It’s a mess. A freaking mess!
There was... nothing to see about the choreography
Seriously, I have nothing to say
It doesn’t even look classy
It looks cheap
Trainer Bae Yoon Jung has a secret side?
I’m.. (Unni is..)
It’s okay, unni is not good at Korean as well
Yeah unni used to weigh a lot
Unni is so surprised
Unni wants to clap for you
Produce 101's official tsundere trainer: Bae Yoon Jung
Will the next trainee be able to receive unni's applause?
bright smile
as soon as she appears
Yoon Seohyeung: When it comes to smiling, I will probably get top5
No... 1st place.
When I smile, my eyes will look like a half moon and my mouth will look really big.
I’m so nervous
Hello! I’m a trainee from &August, Yoon Seohyeung.
Kahi: You look bright.
Appealing with her bright smile: success!
But how's &august trainee's skill?
I started training when I was still in musicals so it’s just been around 1 month since I started training.
Yoon Seohyeung gained skills with
3 years of musical experience
JKS: Yoon Seohyeung from &August, we’ll be taking a look at the performance you’ve prepared.
JKS: Please do well, I'm getting a good feeling, do well
Ham Yeji: As soon as I heard the song, my expectation was like.. (gasp) IU's song?
Kim Sejeong: Woah~ It’s no joke if she could pull off the 3 high notes. She will rank 1st place right away!
Yoon Seohyeung: The important part of this song is the 3 high notes.
Staff: How long have you been practicing on this?
Yoon Seohyung: I’ve been practicing for about a month.
before going on stage
lightly warming up her throat
haha
hehe
continuing to warm up backstage!
Belt out the high notes!
Fighting!
♫ IU - Good Day ♫
Kim Sejeong: It’s no joke if she could pull off the 3 high notes. She will rank 1st place right away!
3 high notes
failed
oh no...
oh too bad
It would be good if they don’t broadcast this. Can’t they cut out this part?
Only the high notes. Really, just the high notes.
Somi: The part where her singing cracked will surely be broadcasted.. how embarrassing would it be for her.
Cathy: Her confidence was really good.
But that was the only good part of it.
KSE: We'll announce the grade for &August trainee.
Yoon Seohyung from &August
You got a F.
KSE: Your evaluation has finished with that score.
&august level test result
Yoon Seohyeung - F
JKS: Next trainee, please come up to the stage.
Who is the trainee receiving applause from the others as soon as she appears?
JKS: Oh? Aren’t you the trainee who sat on the 1st place seat?
Hello. I’m Heo Chanmi from Dublekick Company. Please take a good care of me.
JKS: Your overall training period is 10 years and 4 months.
You were on the debut line-up of Girls’ Generation and f(x) when you trained in SM.
You were also the main vocal of Co-Ed School.
Heo Chanmi became a trainee again after leaving the group 3 years ago
10 years of experience! Starlight Chanmi returns!
how will her stage be?
We will take a look at the performance Heo Chanmi has prepared.
Heo Chanmi: I’ve debuted before so they might have a higher expectation on me and they’ll be more critical when judging me.
I’m worried about that the most right now.
♫ Rihanna - Don't Stop the Music ♫
What will her level test result be?
KSE: First of all, your singing skill...
is good.
I really like it.
BYJ: Did you prepare another dance performance?
Heo Chanmi: I will try to when you play the music.
BYJ: You can play something weird (as in something that would be really hard to dance to)
Will the improvised performance meet the trainers expectations?
BYJ: The song is weird (impossible)
She never learned traditional dancing but she has the talent to imitate it.
JKS: So.. All of the trainers applauded for the first time but why have you only been training for 10 years and 4 months?
Kahi: What do you think is the problem?
Underage drinking controversy "Coed School', activities halted
Chanmi, 5dolls withdrawal "terminates contract"
Chanmi is a trainee again? Her skills aren't at the trainee level...
Huh???? She debuted how long ago but she's doing that there???
Couldn't taste success and had to give up the girl group life
Heo Chanmi: I’ve always watched music programs. And when watching them, I feel like..
that’s the thing I miss the most.
I’ve been singing for a really long time and I’ve even debuted. I debuted and things didn't go well.
But even so, if I’m asked why do I keep doing it, it’s because I want to sing. This is what I’ve always wanted to do.
KSE: We'll announce the grade for Dublekick Entertainment trainee.
Heo Chanmi from Dublekick
you got an A.
Dublekick Company level test result
Heo Chanmi - A

Staff: Next trainee...
Large company trainee Jeon Somi appears
Heo Chanmi/Shim Chaeeun/Jung Haerim: SIXTEEN..
Ham Yeji: Ah~ Here she is
Somi appeared on 2015 JYP girl group survival
She got her name known due to her confident and off the wall charms
Somi: I think I'm really unique
I don’t know, it’s weird
I'm a bit kooky
Recognized for having star quality but eliminated from Twice's debut
Somi: I told myself that I'd debut sometime
There's a saying 'You lose if you're envious'
So I'm not envious of TWICE
When will I debut
When will I debut, when will I debut
When will I debut, when will I debut, when I debut
Debut
Debut, debut
Debut, debut, debut
Debut, debut, debut, quickly debut
I think I always thought 'When will i debut?'
I'm from JYP~ I won't be eliminated TWICE
I'm going to seem a bit unlikable huh?
JKS: Let's see your performance
Lee Jinhee: Among the companies here isn't JYP the biggest?
Ham Yeji: JYP is everybody's dream for people like us
Ham Yeji: My expectations are high
♫ Meghan Trainor - Lips Are Movin' ♫
Cathy: It didn't seem like a memorable stage
Lee Jinhee: I don't think she showed her prowess well
Kim Sejeong: It didn't meet expectations
JKS: We'll announce the individual grade for JYP's trainee.
JYP level test results
Jeon Somi - A
Kim Boseon: I thought she was going to get a B
but they gave her an A.
Lee Jinhee: Shouldn't she have gotten one level lower?
Kim Hyeongeun: There were lots of people who did better than her
Is it because she's JYP?
Park Sehee: Of course, JYP
Somi: The other trainees might be like "didn't they give her an A 'cause shes from JYP"
There will probably be people who misunderstand
BYJ: Rather than her skills, because of her charms
Because she fits the girl group image
JKS: It is needed for a girl group
A Class confirmed
Somi: I was so happy
JKS: Next trainee, please get ready
KSE: music K's Kim Juna
Jea: The song's difficult but I'm anticipating it
Cheetah: Oh my god! Looking forward to it
Jea: I think she'll do well
BYJ: Doesn't it seem like she has the power to do well? If you look at her
Kahi: From the second she enters she looks like she'll do well
Hello, I'm music K's trainee Kim Juna
Please take care of me
JKS: We'll look forward to it
Jung Haerim: Juna?
Kim Juna? I think I've heard that name before
♫ Jessie J - Who You Are ♫
JKS: Your father is Kim Chunghun, the singer from Seven Dolphins
and your aunt is the trot singer Cho Mimi
You have an excellent family
Jung Haerim: Juna?
Kim Juna? I think I've heard that name before
Park Soyeon: I knew, she's Kim Soohyun's half-sister
Park Soyeon: She probably came out on Produce 101 for a reason?
Hello I am music K trainee for 3 years, Kim Juna
Staff: When did we first meet?
Juna: We probably first met in July
published article after being confirmed for produce 101
My mother told me to get up quickly
because an article about me came up.
i guess she wanted to get famous as kim soo hyun's half-sibling
not even a full sibling but selling out her brother to media play about being a half-sister
unexpected criticism and continuous misunderstandings
I was so upset, there were misunderstandings everywhere.
It's okay to swear at me
but to swear even at my parents? That made me so upset
I wanted to get known for music
but I ended up getting know as someone's sister first
More than trying to clear up that misunderstanding I just want to get recognized for my skills
I want to show myself doing well
without having to borrow someone else's influence.
BYJ: This girl seems like she could have a solo debut with her singing skills
Kahi: For me though...
Your voice is really good
but can you show us a dance? Personally?
BYJ: Can you dance?
Kahi: It seems like she can't dance
BYJ: This is a place where we pick and train a girl group
I can't tell how good you are by just watching this.
music K's Kim Juna can't hide her tension
BYJ: Of course she's the best in terms of vocal skill but she can't dance at all
her level test? we'll see next week
10 minutes before meeting the 101 girls
What is Rep Jang doing?
you're beautiful~
