'Rented in Finland' hit its lowest ratings yesterday


theqoo

-Who's on this show?

ㄴLee Jehoon, Lee Donghwi, Kwak Dongyeon, Cha Eunwoo

-The title itself is weird.

-tvN has lost their power these days.

-I don't even know what they're trying to sayㅋㅋㅋㅋ Putting celebrities in a remote corner of Finland and expecting them to be 'healed'... What is this even?

-I'm so tired of reality shows where celebrities go to Europe to play and eat... It somehow feels disconnected.

-Why do they even make shows like this?

-Making it a 10-episode series was a mistake.

-Stop making shows about going abroadㅋㅋ

-It's f*cking boring... Even if I were the one who goes to the countryside in Northern Europe, it would be f*cking boring. That's just how that isㅋㅋ

-It's not just boring, it's completely uninteresting.

-The cast lineup isn't appealing and the concept isn't interesting either.

-This show is still airing?

-The scenery is really beautiful, and I like the actors, but it's just too boring...

-It's boringㅠ ’m not interested in what they’re doing there, they don’t have much to do and the chemistry isn’t great either

Baby Garden loses final ruling in lawsuit against Netflix over 'In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal'

 

Religious organization 'Baby Garden', which filed a lawsuit against Netflix seeking 300 M KRW in damages over the documentary 'In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal', has lost the case in the Supreme Court.

According to legal sources on the 25th, the Third Division of the Supreme Court, upheld the lower court's ruling on the 23rd, which dismissed Baby Garden and its leader Kim Gisun's claims for damages against Netflix.

Netflix released an eight-episode documentary 'In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal' in March 2023, which covered the leaders of four religious organisations, including Baby Garden.

Baby Garden filed a lawsuit against Netflix claiming that Episode 5 and 6 of 'In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal' contained false information about the organization and its leader, Kim Gisun. The documentary contained allegations that Kim Gisun forced the followers to perform hard labor and that those who did not obey were beaten to death by other followers.

Baby Garden argued that Kim Gisun had been cleared of murder and fraud charges in 1997 and that the documentary's allegations were false.

Both the first and second courts rejected Baby Garden's claims.

The first trial ruled, "The documentary does not claim that Kim Gisun killed the victim or ordering the killing. In fact, the end of Episode 6 clearly states that the previous criminal case concluded with a 'not guilty' verdict." The court added, "Even if Kim Gisun felt uncomfortable, the documentary cannot be considered as defamatory or a malicious personal attack."

Baby Garden appealed the first ruling, but the second court rejected the appeal.

The Supreme Court also upheld the lower court's ruling, deciding not to proceed with a further hearing, and dismissed the case.

Survival show 'Universe League' reveals freaking ridiculous name for their debuting group

 

AHOF (아홉) (NB: Ahob means nine)

They revealed the number of the debuting members for the first time today, and they literally made the group's name the number of members.

theqoo

-As a fan of the group that's most likely to debut... I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

-This reminds me of when I first heard 'Gugudan'......

-Who's the MC in the middle?
ㄴPark Jaebeom

-Are they going to change their name to Yeodeolp (NB: Eight) if one member leaves?

-Whoa... This sounds like something someone randomly blurted out during brainstorming and a higher-up said, "That sounds good"

-At least it looks better when written in English...

-It's a unique name. I don't think it's bad. But looking it up on the search engine will be toughㅠ

-There was a SNSD's fansite that is named 'Ahob' back thenㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Honestly, it looks like they’d be better off not debuting at all…

-'We'll introduce ourselves! Two, three @>-#;! Hello, we're AHOF!'

-Is this a Korean survival show?

-Is this the group that comes after that 'Close your eyes!!' group or something like that....?!

-Debut song: I HOPE.

-They need to make sure no one leaves the group, ever.

-It's fine. Even SEVENTEEN doesn't have 17 members anyway.

-Execute him and dump his body in the ocean!

-Look at the age difference... 43 and 24... I have a lot to say, but I won't...

The harmonization is insaneㄷㄷ 

theqoo 

-This is amazing ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Now I understand why PLAVE originally aimed to be a vocal group.

-The harmonisation is insaneㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-This is so good... It gave me chills. It's just insane. I can't stop listening to itㅜㅜ

-It feels like my ears open up when they start harmonizing...

-Each of them sounds amazing. None of them is trying to outshine the others or showing off their own vocals, they all just blend perfectly into the music.

-This sounds like a pop song. I love it.

-Each member has a unique voice, yet they blend so harmoniously. It's so amazing. I love it.

-Whoa... The harmonies are insane. And this is self-produced?? That's crazy.

-I was so sleepy, my eyes were already half-closed. But as soon as they started harmonizing, my eyes opened so wideㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I woke up instantlyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Whoa.. Even without the MR, they sound really amazing. Their songs are so good.

-The song somehow feels so elegant and classy.

-The harmonization is insane... The way the video shows the sky during the harmonization part was absolutely beautiful.

-😇 This is just like heaven, seriously.

-I heard they originally wanted to be a vocal group, not a dance-idol group. They must've been really confident in their skills to make that decision as a virtual group.
