    Sympathizing with the underdogs: YG WIN first voting round result
    written on Monday, September 30, 2013 @ 9:02 AM



    If you’ve been following me on my twitter account, you will know how much I’m lagging in KPOP these days. I just keep tabs on my favorite KPOP groups. But over these past few weeks, I’ve been hooked on tvN’s Who Is Next (WIN). WIN is the survival show for the next YG artist. I really love BI when I first saw him perform with MC Mong when he was 14. I hate to admit it but BI is the main reason I’m on Team B. He’s the next GD, I swear.


    Even GD sees their similarities.


    Up until last week, Team B was on a winning streak. Unfortunately, they did not win the viewer’s vote for this week. They lagged by almost 2%. It was a close fight indeed. I tweeted this hours after the announcement of the winner.
    Then Team A supporters went to defend Team A saying they didn’t vote them out of sympathy. Saying that it’s “sympathy vote” is insulting to Team A because that implies they don’t have talent. Now, this is where I have to DISAGREE. I have never regarded Team A as a group without talent. What I mean to say is that fans sympathize more with Team A than Team B not only because they are losing but because they are so talented yet they are still losing. I’m not sure if you get my logic or how I phrased my words but basically all I’m saying is that Team A is a talented group and there’s no need for Team A supporters to go hatin’ on us Team B supporters who used the term “sympathy votes”. I know for a fact that Team A supporters voted them not only because they pity Team A but because it’s such a pity on how Team A have shown so much but still they got the bad end of the stick.

    At this point in time, the term pity is more applicable to Team B. I know most of the people felt bad for Team A for their losing streak and wanted this win as a way for them to get over their losses and show their full potential for the upcoming stages. But has anyone thought about how Team B would react to their loss? For them to keep on winning everything yet still failing to conquer the heart of the fans? They got the approval from the whole YG family, artists and producers, still it wasn’t enough for them to win the first round of votes.


    I hope we don’t distort and look too much into each others’ statement during the next two rounds of voting. After all, they are going to debut under the same company. It’s just a matter of time of who’s going to debut first.
