Fans are demanding another group be established for trainees who were eliminated at the final night.
The result of “PRODUCE X 101” final night was quite debatable. Netizens revealed proof of Mnet manipulating the votes in order to eliminate some famous trainees off the top 11. Recently, the show producers have denied the rumor and insisted that the results are not wrong.
To set things right for the trainees who have lost the chance to debut, fans are asking the eliminated trainees to make a new group called BY9. They have sent the requests to agencies and focused on promoting to hope for a new chance for these trainees. News about the BY9 project might be even more highly anticipated than the winner team on PRODUCE X 101. The remaining 9 trainees are all very talented with huge fandoms. Insiders of the entertainment industry have said that BY9, if they have a chance to debut, will become a strong rival of X1 (the winner team from PRODUCE X 101). CJ ENM is currently watching the situation and considering the chance of BY9’s debut.
