"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"?

"Build Up" is on its way to the finals, but there's still a lot of competition left. Here are some dark horses that could shake things up and possibly enter the final lineup.
Dyllan Mykel, Kpopmap EditorMnet's "Build Up: Vocal Boy Group Survival", or simply known as "Build Up", continues to pique the interest of netizens everywhere as the show moves ever forward. The 40 talented contestants has now been cut in half as the competition heats up with a flurry of mind-blowing performances. With every note, we come one step closer to finding out which four contestants will make the final debut lineup.
Now, the contestants have entered the "One Team Mission", creating 5 teams of 4 members that will last until the finals. While some might believe the winning team will ultimately be the one to make their debut, others continue to think there's still a chance for an individual mission or voting to pop up in the finals that will help to determine the outcome.
As we are all still waiting for "Build Up" to announce just how they'll form the final group lineup, here are some contestants we believe could be potential dark horses and shake everything up.
Coming over from "Peak Time", Bitsaeon has slowly been putting out statement performances that audiences should not ignore. He's a talented vocalist, able to do spellbinding falsettos and reach outstanding high notes. Even when teamed up with crowd favorites, Bitsaeon still manages to grab hold of the spotlight, causing fans to hope he'll become one of the four final members.
It can be easy for any contestant to become lost in the sea of talent participating in "Build Up". However, SunYoul has remained consistent all throughout, his pure, uplifting vocals becoming a source of strength. Even in the face of adversity, he's able to stay the course and put on a performance that leaves the entire studio speechless.
The CIX member has remained true to the title of the show, slowly building up his skills as they reach closer to the end. SeungHun has shown that he's an absolute all-rounder and while there's crowd favorites, he's hoping to have that title for himself. With his upward trajectory, making the final group lineup seems a likely course for the idol vocalist.
JUNGSOOMIN has shown a duality of being relaxed and carefree, while also being the reinvigorating vitamin to his beloved groupmates. Although he wasn't too known coming into the program, he's amassed a dedicated band of followers that hope for nothing but his success. And with every performance, he's more than proven he deserves a spot in the final lineup. Now audiences must wait and see if JUNGSOOMIN's talent takes him all the way across the finish line.
Within the first few episodes, Jeon Woong voiced his bold desire to become a "son of Mnet". And while his journey to accomplishing this has been hard fought, it seems he's slowly reaching the point where this dream might come true. He's applied all the criticism he's received to his singing technique and was finally able to impress the judges before him. With this as his first step, there's a very real chance he could make the final group lineup.
