As of late, the multiple upcoming survival shows have been a topic of discussion online. JTBC‘s Project 7 is one such program set to begin airing on October 18.
Project 7 will feature 99 contestants competing to be part of a seven-membered boy group formed through voting for teams rather than individuals. The show’s diverse cast includes Bada Lee and producer and songwriter Ryan Jhun.
GFRIEND’s Upcoming Reunion Project Sparks Dilemma In Fans
As seen in previous survival shows with many contestants, it might be hard for an individual to stand out and gain fans, making it harder for them to debut. However, some close to a contestant on the show have set out to ensure his name gets out there.
On TikTok, an account with the screen name Andy Fanpage has had multiple TikToks gain several thousand views. Each video promotes Andy Okuda, a Japanese-American trainee under MYSTIC STORY.
The initial content of the videos seems to be that of a typical fan page…
