‘YG TREASURE BOX’, The Fierce Competition on the First Elimination Stage… HARUTO vs KEITA, Who Will be the Winner?
[OSEN=장진리 기자] With viewers and view counts raising day by day, the first elimination stage will begin on the 6th episode of ‘YG TREASURE BOX’ to be broadcasted this week. HARUTO and KEITO who’ve trained together in Japan for years will battle each other to enter the debut group, Treasure 7.
Today (20th) at 11 AM, YG Entertainment uploaded a preview for the 6th episode of ‘YG TREASURE BOX’, a program to select members for YG’s next generation boy group.
KEITA was additionally selected as a challenger to take the position of Treasure 7 (debut group) and stated, “It’s definitely HARUTO”, without hesitation. HARUTO revealed his confidence by responding, “I’ll surely win if I battle 1:1”.
HARUTO and KEITA performed together to receive the ‘1:1 position swap’ evaluation. HARUTO grabbed the audiences’ attention with his low-tone rap and performance, while KEITA also presented his much-improved rap skills compared to his last evaluation.
When the evaluation results of the 100 YG employees who acted as the Treasure Makers were revealed, both the trainees and representative producer YANG HYUN SUK looked shocked, making the viewers curious about how the results came out.
People are paying keen attention on whether HARUTO, who received favorable reviews starting from his first monthly evaluations, can overcome KEITA’s challenge to maintain his position in the debut group.
Previously, SO JUNGHWAN, MASHIHO, HA YOONBIN, and BANG YE DAM overcame the fierce challenges made by CHOI HYUN SUK, KIM SEUNG HUN, YOSHINORI, and WANG JYUNHAO, respectively, to maintain their position in Treasure 7. On the other hand, PARK JEONG WOO was dropped out from the debut group after his battle with KIM YEONG GYU, while KIM YEONG GYU entered the debut group for the first time.
‘YG TREASURE BOX’, the program to select members of YG’s new boy group that follows the legacy of BIGBANG, WINNER, and iKON, has passed the halfway point with its 5th episode broadcasted last week. The program has surpassed a total of 46 million accumulated views on VLIVE and YouTube, proving the high expectations on the creation of a new YG boy group.
Unlike pre-existing survival programs, ‘YG TREASURE BOX’ reveals YG’s actual music producing know-hows and its internal system accumulated for the past 22 years to present the creation process of the new group without censorship.
The 6th episode of ‘YG TREASURE BOX’, composed of 10 episodes, will pre-release through VLIVE on the 21st at 10 PM and broadcast through JTBC2 and YouTube on the same night at 12 AM.
