Universe League Episode 1

JL and Park Han Nailed!

Funny how I just started watching this even though it aired a long time ago, and AHOF has already been promoting for almost a year. Even so, I'm still going to share my thoughts on each episode. I finished Episodes 1 and 2 this week.

- I thought the concept was unique. I was expecting it to be similar to 'Universe Ticket'.
- JL and Park Han were the standout performers by far in this episode.
- "Siren" was the best performance of the episode. They felt like a complete package and a group that was already ready to debut.
- I think this show recruited a lot of talented contestants. After watching this episode, I honestly felt like every single one of them deserved to debut.

One thought, though: I kind of wish JL had chosen Changsub. Changsub is one of the top-tier vocalists in the K-pop industry. JL's dancing can improve significantly even through practice on his own, but vocals are something I think he should have prioritized more by learning from someone like Changsub. Still, it's his choice, LOL. His role model was there, after all. On the other hand, I also think it worked out well. If JL and Park Han had ended up on the same team, the other two teams probably wouldn't have stood a chance. Having JL on Team Rhythm created a much better balance.
