Bro I was just watching the mv and I was like why does she look so familiar and then I was like “omg I have to go to that one video grace was with that produce girl”
@@femmewoong I think She/He Means the people who edit the episode to be aired, I bet they have favoritism bcs in some episodes a couple of trainees don't have ONE shot. Like how are they supposed to gain fans if the people can't see them?
Well, I'm not American, but I studied that this is the way how americans speaks, in a very fast way, so it's more about accent than rap or something...
I'm so happy that her company let her talk freely, if she was in another company her manager will be sitting behind the camera and telling her exactly what to say and will stop her from talking about boy groups....
I was an international that voted on the first season and I'm against that. Internationals are too bias, yes they support talent but talent that already has a following is a disadvantage for the other girls that haven't been lucky enough to be known internationally. For season 2 for example if internationals had been allowed to vote it probably would be all 4 boys of Nuest + Samuel and another 6 participants. That's pretty unfair for the not famous ones. All of them have trained and cried, some were desperate maybe for some it was their last chance, some came from poverty or broken families, some had the chance to debut but that oportunity was taken away just like Somi but she was lucky to be loved at international level
羽夏Izaya She means that Alex (the girl next to Grace) did have an injury and yet still performed and then trainers said that they’re glad that we finished this season with no injuries which was obviously false (and probably not only Alex had injury)
it's so sad to look back at all the people criticizing her live performance and all that and she was literally performing with an injury to the point of crying when she got off stage like SMH. We done been knew she was talented so it's so upsetting how quickly ppl judged that. I hope she has many future opprotunities and lots of success going forward.
Harlowe the thing is people were only focused on gyuri’s illness... like yeah she’s doing the high notes but Alex’s leg was so broken to the point she had to wear a chunky cast, yet still slayed... I’m still livid that they basically ignored the fact that Alex was in a much more tougher situation than gyuri
Now we know they gave the most time and attention on screen to companies they were in bed with. Huge shame and infuriating that they didn't give screentime to Alex and her soldiering on stage. I feel anger knowing they neglected what would have been great TV
UPDATE: 3 years later, AleXa is now a underrated Kpop idol who is now on American song contest representing Oklahoma(her hometown) and she made it to the grand final. I’m rlly happy for her for making it so far into the competition and into being a known idol. I’m happy for her:)
tbh i didn't really understand the hype around alex by international fans but now that i watched this i'm sad that she didn't get her chance to shine in the show :( she's so fun and pretty
Honestly... I didn't care about Alex when I watched the show, but I watched this video and found her really interesting! What a waste that I only know about her now :(
Same. Actually saw her a bit and thought she was a bit annoying ironically. Totally wrong. Super great personality. Shame she wasn't chosen by the show producers to shine.
I had the same thought too !! She really seems genuine and positive as well as talented trainee, definitely looking forward to her debut as an artist !!
"Some of my friends had no screentime" "I didn't see them once, wow". It's actually delusional to think that the screentime was fair, of course it wasn't going to be even but c'mon, it was so unballanced! Mnet clearly had favoritism towards Sakura, Hyewon, the Stone and Starship girls. In the other hand Miyu Takeuchi or Go Yujin, for example, had barely any. And what about the girls from Wellmade Yedang? Both of them got an A but got eliminated quickly due to their nonexistent screentime. OK, I get it, it's buissness, but people aren't going to fall for someone who don't know. I have nothing against Sakura but she was obviously going to be extremley popular, she was basically the protagonist of the show, Mnet wanted the public to fall for her, that's why some people called it rigged, Mnet had obviously some favorite contestanst who they showed more. Edit: By now it has already been confirmed that the show was rigged. As expected from the snakes of Ment.
@unosized I really liked Sakura before debuting in IZ*NE. She was just earnest and tried so hard for the spot but upon debuting, her performances are all meh and it's disappointing.
@@invisibleseeker i'm not sure if she didn't know that because from what i know.. the participant or peoples who join are was told the detail about the program. Sorry for my bad grammar, i hope you got what i said
John Joceph I mean she said in the video that she wasn’t informed before she auditioned that akb48 was gonna be part of the show unless she was lying or something
Christine looks beautiful here. She didn't have enough time in Produce48 as Mnet have the member who have more time in the show allocated for them. Wish all the best for Christine.
I'll always be salty over how Mnet didn't showcased Alex's personality IT ALL. She's a sweetheart and we literally saw her sing one line and then walk away on the first elimination, I need to punch someone in the face. They wanted a global group but the only American girl had like, zero screen time, smh.
i can't speak for everyone but i'm like a couple cm taller than alexa and i guess maybe just a little under 35kg. for me, it def sucks being this thin but as well for me i wouldn't say it's dangerous. like i've never had any health complications bc of it. i've had like vitamin/iron deficiencies but i'd put that down to my poor diet. overall i don't seem to gain weight easily at all. i can't speak for alexa obv but these are just my thoughts :^)
@@sky_tyong Alexa said she had a body fat percentage of 17 (which is not necessarily unsafe but insanely low for a woman) and about 65 percent muscle mass. There was literally no other way for her to lose weight than reducing muscle mass. Reducing muscle mass. Not even fat but muscle. Have you seen her dance? Then you know where this muscle mass is coming from. I don't know how much muscle mass you have but I would guess it's under 65 percent if you weight 35kg (which is absolutely fine) and you said yourself that your diet is shitty. Alexa has to train and perform a lot and that must be physically exhausting. Losing weight WOULD be dangerous for her. I don't think there are many woman that are 150cm tall, weight 35kg and are healthy at the same time. EDIT No hate btw, I'm just surprised there are actually women weighting 35kg and still feel healthy and it's not the result of an eating disorder. Hope you are doing fine with your body and truly are healthy.
I’m 1.60 cm and the “normal weight for this height is 40-45kg (i weight more but psh .. i just love food too much ) so I don’t think 35kg for 1.50 cm is dangerous at all 35-40kg is a normal weight for this height ! So no problem it’s just dangerous when it’s under this
oh my god i actually met alex on hongdae this august by accident and she was THE SWEETEST we talked a lot and were even gonna meet there again the next night but my friends' plans changed and it didn't happen :(
"Without being salty..." we love a considerate QUEEN!!! Sis really could've gone off about her screen time but instead was very composed and respectful
I mean, from the diector view, isn't that "a trainee had been injured while practice but still try to perform with all her energy" an interesting story? I cant understand why they didnt air
I feel like because Gyuri is more popular and is already in a group she sort of failed and voice cracked a bunch, i heard that alex was also off tune but she is an unknown trainee for the most part unless they watch her covers or the competition she won 3 times (i think)
35kg?!?!? wtf????????? i mean seriously that is a child weigh like.. an actual child.. for a woman its like... do you exist, 43 is already so tiny damn are they serious???
There was a girl in my strategic management class who was like 150cm but weight only 33kg. She didn’t seem that thin tho she seems healthy I guess, it’s the bone. Ppl usually thought that I’m 4-5kg less than my actual weight because my bone isn’t that big but I guess it’s really heavy
i really love how humble she is.... and she didnt even talk anything bad about produce despite how mnet treated her.. need to mention she seems to have a very humble and friendly personality.
she seems really well-spoken and level-headed and fun. and the fact that she's considering like, what words she uses and how her actions will come off to viewers is impressive, esp with how little media training trainees/idols seem to get. i hope her label does right by her and we get to see her debut, i feel like she could go far. i am on stanby edit: okay actually nvm i commented this before the mortician part came up and i'm not on stanby anymore, i already full stan. i love her
Yes, she is very circumspect yet comfortable in the way she expresses herself. However, I think this would be totally lost on a Korean audience who would need a translation for everything she says. Recognizing that so much gets lost in translation, I wonder if it's really going to be worth her while to make a go of it in the K-pop world. She may have a more sympathetic audience in the U.S.
@@gotwa229 her company isn't going to let her debut without being at least conversationally fluent in Korean. very few companies let artists who don't have basic Korean down debut because there's no chance for longevity in their career if they don't. granted, she won't come right out of the gate speaking on an academic level because languages take a lot of time and experience to master, but she has a measured quality about her and like I said is already thinking about the nuance of her word choice and actions, that I think even if she's a little lacking in vocabulary for the first few years, she'll still have that easy-going charisma in Korean that she has in English. although I will say i hope she debuts in a group, hopefully with at least one or two native Korean speakers, because it'll give her support to lean on in interviews and variety when she forgets a word or can't articulate herself or something. also because her chances are higher overall with a group because kpop still just isn't that open to new female soloists.
For all people who love alexine Christine, i want to say to them. Alexine will make a appearance in the MV of Mamamoo the 14th march. The name of the song is Gogobebe.
I've always wondered about Korea's working laws. Do they not have unions and stuff to protect workers? I constantly hear about idols talking about long filming hours and it just seems ridiculous. How is it even legal for them to make these people stay on set for 24 hours?
Entertainment world is like that. I worked for 10-14 days nonstop some days doing 12-14h average and I'm not even an idol. Think about the STAFF that works there and comes 1 hour before the idols and 1 hour after.
Yeah, that have pretty sucky laws, and unions aren't a really big thing. Its really more of an American thing. And this all sucks because it lowkey goes against the human rights code the UN has.
The way the Korean networks produce these reality shows is really illogical and typical of the "bbali bbali" culture, as well as hard on everyone from the filming crew to the participants. Ratings and rankings are what matter the most and these companies who cannot even wait a reasonable amount of time for episodes to be properly edited thus allowing participants to segue back to their normal lives without the nightmare of living alongside an incomplete show that's being broadcasted almost in real time. The amount of greed these networks have to immediately recoup on their investment immediately is shocking. by comparison, reality shows produced in the U.S. by American networks have considerable lead time before a completed show hits the airwaves, usually a six month lag. So a show like Survivor will wrap after having been filmed on location from beginning to series finale, before it goes to editing where it will be released episodically usually six months later. By this time, all the participants have transitioned back to their normal lives and are free from the pressure of the competition and removed the production to literally look back retrospectively since their last performance was months ago. However, b/c mNet wanted to do a live performance and series finale which aired on their network on 31 August, 2018, there was literally just a one week lag between filming and broadcasting of the last half of the show after an initial series shoot that went from April-May of 2018 before the show's premiere aired on 15 June, 2018.
Alex had some mad haters for literally NO reason.. literally my friends didn’t like her which didn’t make sense because she didn’t even get enough screen time, where is the logic ,,
Mr. Aemaemoho Ah, well, not everyone can like her voice. Not that you have to or anything. That wasn't my point. Just putting that out there to avoid future fights.
Loved Alex since the introduction video and she really seems like a total sweetheart, thanks for the video! I'll definitely look out for her in the future! ♥
like how alex look.glad she knows how to answer question without even mentioning someone.thats being professional.hope to see alex debut soon.this girl is interesting
Ikr and she sounds genuine and honest too when she answered her questions, she also seems very positive and passionate wow i really am looking forward for her debut
@@heavenjimenez9092 simple, all the voting datas were manipulated, which means some of the iz*one members ain't really supposed to be one. the show just turned into a big bullshit
@@mertefeasilkan6004 still wrong, even if other members dont have the most stans they are still have a lot more domestic and international fans than alexa has.
i feel so bad for having some bad perceptions of alex because of stan twt, she struggled too and it wasn't even aired and she has to think a lot since international fans are watching.. and no one will know if this video did not happen. thats crazy, good luck alex!
ikr, idk bout you but i thought alex was that bold good for nothing idol in the show, i literally didn't see her charm on the show because the lack screentime
When I watched PD48 and the westerns fans kept talking about Alex I used to be annoyed and thought she was overrated. After watching this I realized how mature and how amazing her personality is ;--; sorry for misjudging you, I wish you all the best.
@@aleahkaonohi7154 Every person on earth judges other people by one way or another, I didn't like her but I didn't affect her life in any way, I never left a negative comment about her or disliked her videos or anything. My opinions were kept to myself. Don't be over dramatic, we all judge other people. Period.
@@aleahkaonohi7154 No , that's the thing with over-excessive obnoxious hella annoying fans who kept flooding every comment section on every social media possible about their favs and bitching whenever their favs didn't get enough screen time or anything . The artist did nothing wrong , its these annoying fans that shed the negative light on their favs which cause the casual bystander people to dislike the artist due to these hella annoying fans .
lmao same, I was in the 30s when I was in elementary because I was *really* short and didn't have that habit of eating until I was actually full (yet xD) those were the old days
I weighed 33~38kg until when I was in the middle school and I was only 150cm tall perhaps?? now +-8 years have passed, I’m weighed 53kg now and I’m only 162cm tall tho.
@@ezranovia7575 53kg for a height of 162 is pretty good. I'm 158 and I weight around 46-47kg now and I'm always told by my doctor that I would benefit from gaining more weight. When I was around 50-52kg, I looked much better to be honest. Though I'm okay with my current weight. As long as it doesn't affect my health (specially since I'm anemic) I'm not too mad about it.
I haven’t watched produce 101 or produce 48 but omg Alex seems so sweet!! Definitely a fan now lmao. I hope she is successful with whatever she does, she seems like such a sweetheart.
@@ananasbanana regardless of the language barrier she's still Korean and has every right to participate, no need to call her out of her name take that negativity somewhere else
I want to thank you Grace for giving us an opportunity to see the behind the scene of such big shows and I hope you want to continue doing this for other shows because it's a really catchy content and I think you'll get rich by pursuing it haha GET RICH GIRL
I've always thought Alexa was talented, but this video made me really respect her as a person. Because of how badly she was screwed over by Mnet with her non-existent screen time, it would have probably been so tempting for her to shade IZ*ONE or be jealous, but she wasn't - she was really classy and sweet. That takes character.

Thank you so much for having Alex over! You literally made her have more screentime than her entire stay in PD48 lol
I laughed so hard because of this comment. 😭 I didn't even see her shadow in PD48. 😭
if she debuted in iz*one, i think she's the rapper she talks so fast
Just because someone talks fast, doesn't mean they can ACTUALLY rap.
if she had debuted on izone, she would have been the rapper*
Well, I'm not American, but I studied that this is the way how americans speaks, in a very fast way, so it's more about accent than rap or something...

Next season better have international voting.
This time they limited it to koreans because japanese trainees are very popular in Japan, but I hope next season they have it.
It makes sense to limit the voting to Koreans, since the winners will be mostly performing in South Korea anyway.

ARMY Blood Sweat &Tears Queen Arianator forever lmao people shouldn’t always stan a group/someone only because of their personality.
in my opinion this girl suffered the most , she's pretty much at the biggest disadvantage because she's not fluent either korean or japanese
Yeah agree but it's her decision to join that survival show, so i can't blame M-net for that
John Joceph at the same time she also didn’t know that akb48 was gonna be on the show which stinks
@@invisibleseeker i'm not sure if she didn't know that because from what i know.. the participant or peoples who join are was told the detail about the program. Sorry for my bad grammar, i hope you got what i said
@@invisibleseeker also how you could didn't know anything about the detail, when you wanna join an program or event
John Joceph I mean she said in the video that she wasn’t informed before she auditioned that akb48 was gonna be part of the show unless she was lying or something
Christine looks beautiful here. She didn't have enough time in Produce48 as Mnet have the member who have more time in the show allocated for them. Wish all the best for Christine.
I'll always be salty over how Mnet didn't showcased Alex's personality IT ALL. She's a sweetheart and we literally saw her sing one line and then walk away on the first elimination, I need to punch someone in the face.
They wanted a global group but the only American girl had like, zero screen time, smh.
Ikr even 2 Chinese trainees got a lot of screen time from the start
I thought there will be some shady, salty moment in here but Alex is such a nice & positive girl, her answers sound nice & sincere at the same time.
around 12:30 35 KILOS WTFFFFF :O Like seriously even if she's 1m50 that's insane. And dangerous.
i can't speak for everyone but i'm like a couple cm taller than alexa and i guess maybe just a little under 35kg. for me, it def sucks being this thin but as well for me i wouldn't say it's dangerous. like i've never had any health complications bc of it. i've had like vitamin/iron deficiencies but i'd put that down to my poor diet. overall i don't seem to gain weight easily at all. i can't speak for alexa obv but these are just my thoughts :^)
@@sky_tyong Alexa said she had a body fat percentage of 17 (which is not necessarily unsafe but insanely low for a woman) and about 65 percent muscle mass.
There was literally no other way for her to lose weight than reducing muscle mass. Reducing muscle mass. Not even fat but muscle.
Have you seen her dance? Then you know where this muscle mass is coming from.
I don't know how much muscle mass you have but I would guess it's under 65 percent if you weight 35kg (which is absolutely fine) and you said yourself that your diet is shitty. Alexa has to train and perform a lot and that must be physically exhausting. Losing weight WOULD be dangerous for her. I don't think there are many woman that are 150cm tall, weight 35kg and are healthy at the same time.
EDIT
No hate btw, I'm just surprised there are actually women weighting 35kg and still feel healthy and it's not the result of an eating disorder. Hope you are doing fine with your body and truly are healthy.
I’m 1.60 cm and the “normal weight for this height is 40-45kg (i weight more but psh .. i just love food too much ) so I don’t think 35kg for 1.50 cm is dangerous at all 35-40kg is a normal weight for this height ! So no problem it’s just dangerous when it’s under this
@@juveniablack where did you get that information? According to BMI the healthy weight for someone who is 160cm is 45-65 kg...
JuveniaBlack OP actually that’s underweight...
Damn We learned so much more about Alex here than we did on Produce 101.
Wasn’t it produce 48? I’m not too familiar with survival show stuff
@@Wania-qw6yo Yeah, it's Produce 48
oh my god i actually met alex on hongdae this august by accident and she was THE SWEETEST we talked a lot and were even gonna meet there again the next night but my friends' plans changed and it didn't happen :(
omg thats cute :(
"Without being salty..." we love a considerate QUEEN!!! Sis really could've gone off about her screen time but instead was very composed and respectful
"Residual feeling of loneliness"
She's college educated. Cool.
?
She meant that she is well-spoken and articulate. It was pretty clear what she meant, how did you not get it?? 😩😩
@@krisuler7734 maybe they're not college educated.. yet.
lol pls dont kill me.
Because you not be college educated and have an extensive vernacular.
She performed with a displaced bone and Mnet didn’t even air that ?!?
Hey Everyone omg poor alex :(
Ikr.
I mean, from the diector view, isn't that "a trainee had been injured while practice but still try to perform with all her energy" an interesting story? I cant understand why they didnt air
@@chringchring7451 Because Mnet didn't like Alex or didn't want her to debut. They didn't give her any screentime either.
I feel like because Gyuri is more popular and is already in a group she sort of failed and voice cracked a bunch, i heard that alex was also off tune but she is an unknown trainee for the most part unless they watch her covers or the competition she won 3 times (i think)
35kg?!?!? wtf????????? i mean seriously that is a child weigh like.. an actual child.. for a woman its like... do you exist, 43 is already so tiny damn are they serious???
Bcs she isnt tall, that must be one of the factors
Even for 150 cm girl, 35 kg is crazy thin. I am 150, and my normal weight is 44 kg
I am 151 cm and my weight only 37cm and my body is super thin I want to gain more weight but I can’t :(
There was a girl in my strategic management class who was like 150cm but weight only 33kg. She didn’t seem that thin tho she seems healthy I guess, it’s the bone. Ppl usually thought that I’m 4-5kg less than my actual weight because my bone isn’t that big but I guess it’s really heavy
I'm 163 cm tall and about 50 kg .....is that normal?
Me sitting here thinking that if Alex had gone for center she could’ve ended up as popular as Chowon.
YESSSS IKR
i really love how humble she is.... and she didnt even talk anything bad about produce despite how mnet treated her.. need to mention she seems to have a very humble and friendly personality.
she seems really well-spoken and level-headed and fun. and the fact that she's considering like, what words she uses and how her actions will come off to viewers is impressive, esp with how little media training trainees/idols seem to get. i hope her label does right by her and we get to see her debut, i feel like she could go far. i am on stanby
edit: okay actually nvm i commented this before the mortician part came up and i'm not on stanby anymore, i already full stan. i love her
Yes, she is very circumspect yet comfortable in the way she expresses herself. However, I think this would be totally lost on a Korean audience who would need a translation for everything she says. Recognizing that so much gets lost in translation, I wonder if it's really going to be worth her while to make a go of it in the K-pop world. She may have a more sympathetic audience in the U.S.
@@gotwa229 her company isn't going to let her debut without being at least conversationally fluent in Korean. very few companies let artists who don't have basic Korean down debut because there's no chance for longevity in their career if they don't. granted, she won't come right out of the gate speaking on an academic level because languages take a lot of time and experience to master, but she has a measured quality about her and like I said is already thinking about the nuance of her word choice and actions, that I think even if she's a little lacking in vocabulary for the first few years, she'll still have that easy-going charisma in Korean that she has in English.
although I will say i hope she debuts in a group, hopefully with at least one or two native Korean speakers, because it'll give her support to lean on in interviews and variety when she forgets a word or can't articulate herself or something. also because her chances are higher overall with a group because kpop still just isn't that open to new female soloists.
@@cloudquest8006 only stupid companies let Korean idol debut without korean conversations skills

@@gwen7955 AHAHAHAH OMG
@@gwen7955 THATS SO CUTE ASDKLSJD I WASNT EXPECTING THAT AT ALL
I've always wondered about Korea's working laws. Do they not have unions and stuff to protect workers? I constantly hear about idols talking about long filming hours and it just seems ridiculous. How is it even legal for them to make these people stay on set for 24 hours?
Entertainment world is like that. I worked for 10-14 days nonstop some days doing 12-14h average and I'm not even an idol. Think about the STAFF that works there and comes 1 hour before the idols and 1 hour after.
unfortunetly, korea has piss poor labour laws
Yeah, that have pretty sucky laws, and unions aren't a really big thing. Its really more of an American thing. And this all sucks because it lowkey goes against the human rights code the UN has.
zynbw um they do that in the US too. That’s just the music industry.
The way the Korean networks produce these reality shows is really illogical and typical of the "bbali bbali" culture, as well as hard on everyone from the filming crew to the participants. Ratings and rankings are what matter the most and these companies who cannot even wait a reasonable amount of time for episodes to be properly edited thus allowing participants to segue back to their normal lives without the nightmare of living alongside an incomplete show that's being broadcasted almost in real time. The amount of greed these networks have to immediately recoup on their investment immediately is shocking. by comparison, reality shows produced in the U.S. by American networks have considerable lead time before a completed show hits the airwaves, usually a six month lag. So a show like Survivor will wrap after having been filmed on location from beginning to series finale, before it goes to editing where it will be released episodically usually six months later. By this time, all the participants have transitioned back to their normal lives and are free from the pressure of the competition and removed the production to literally look back retrospectively since their last performance was months ago. However, b/c mNet wanted to do a live performance and series finale which aired on their network on 31 August, 2018, there was literally just a one week lag between filming and broadcasting of the last half of the show after an initial series shoot that went from April-May of 2018 before the show's premiere aired on 15 June, 2018.
1:05 I'm probably the only one who love when Alex said "Taeyong"
Same here especially when she said NCT T_T
I found that really cute 😭🥺
Alex had some mad haters for literally NO reason.. literally my friends didn’t like her which didn’t make sense because she didn’t even get enough screen time, where is the logic ,,
the answer is there is no logic.
Mr. Aemaemoho
That might be because of her injury
