On the third episode of SBS’s idol survival show “B:MY BOYZ,” the final results of Round 1 were revealed!
“B:MY BOYZ” is a new boy group survival show in which top idols participate directly in choosing which contestants (known as “B:GINNERS”) make the final debut lineup.
The first official round of competition was a “concept battle” in which the contestants split up into five teams to cover various hit songs by NCT, the show’s first “top idol.” The contestants surviving the first round of eliminations and advancing to the second round were determined 30 percent by the votes of the live studio audience, 50 percent by online votes on my1pick, and 20 percent by online votes on SBS’s official website.
However, NCT members Johnny, Jungwoo, Ten, and Xiaojun were able to exempt a total of 10 contestants from elimination. At the end of the round, the four NCT members chose one team as their “Top Pick,” allowing all six members of the chosen team to automatically advance to the next round.
Outside of the “Top Pick” team, the four NCT members also picked one contestants from each of the other four teams to similarly save from elimination.
