Wow! I really hope that Soshisubs does this because I REALLY would like to see this show/series. It seems really interesting and since I love doing Kpop Cover dances, I would really love to see people from online on tv! I am already spazzing over this! I can’t wait for this to come out! and I love that Miss A is doing the US! Man! I wish I could be on this show!
That’s so cool, hallyu already going global. I hope this will also create more kpop idol, like if there are some peeps that catch the entertainment companies attention and give them a chance to be a idol under their guidance. Good luck to all! Glad YulTi is part of this as host and judges, they’re going to do great like they always does. Stay healthy girls! Hope this will be broadcast, I want to see it. Thanks ssf for info! :D
