"Build Up: Vocal Boy Group Survival" is heading into the finals, where everything is on the line. We briefly go over some of the charms from the remaining 3 groups and why you should vote for them!
Dyllan Mykel, Kpopmap EditorAfter a long, arduous road, Mnet's "Build Up: Vocal Boy Group Survival" ("Build Up") is set to head into its final round to determine the winner. With the one teams set, fans are fervently sending in their votes to ensure their favorite group gets a chance at debut.
Coming up to this point, they've shown tremendous growth, as both a group and individuals. It's difficult to pick just one, but in honor of competition, it's an unavoidable act that must be carried out.
Now, while some are set on their one pick, many others are still wondering who they should wholeheartedly support. If this sounds familiar, look down below to figure out which "Build Up" team you should vote for.
WATERFIRE's entire vibe is probably the closest to representing the season we're in: spring. Behind their refreshing, innocent visuals, their voices manage to carry you through wave after wave of heartache and relief. From UP10TION's SunYoul as a walking example of pure innocence, Kang HaYoon's reversal of charms that will shock the world, Wumuti's cotton candy-like personality, and Choi SuHwan's allrounder qualities, WATERFIRE could be the next OST kings if they make it past the finish line.
The moment this team was formed, audiences were thinking this could be a winning combination. While not always a smooth ride, their alluring voices carried them through every hardship, earning praise from judges and fellow contestants. There's ONE PACT Jay Chang's groovy soul, CIX SeungHun's unrelenting vocal prowess, Kim MinSeo's moments of sheer surprise, and M.O.N.T Bitsaeon's leadership capabilities that create a perfect harmony of individuals that fans can't help but root for.
Every member of The Partners has made a resounding statement across various performances. Some was met with the sweet taste of victory, while other times they were met with the bitterness of defeat. Park JeUp's survival show experience, A.C.E Lee DongHun's amazing high notes, JUST B Bain's alluringly sexy voice, and AB6IX Jeon Woong's unrelenting desire to prove himself has all led to this moment. The Partners stand just outside the door to victory, hoping their efforts have reached enough people to push them to the next level.
Who do you hope will win survival program "Build Up"?
