One of the best music survival show!!
This show reminded me once again that age is just a number. Can't believe how talented and creative these teens are, especially KOKI. He is a dancing machine disguised as a fluffy kid <3Coming to the concept, there have been many music survival reality shows in S. Korea. But personally this has attracted my attention as PSY being one of the main judge and producing his first Boy Band. I am a big fan of PSY's music and his fondness towards the artists of P Nation. From the first episode i could see his enthusiasm and joy for the upcoming talents and super amazing performances. As for JYP, i am admiring many of JYP nation groups, artists and listening to their songs.
My ult bias from this show is Daniel Jegal. He is the most creative person among the contestants and i was soo upset when he got eliminated. There were many contestants who despite having talent got eliminated and i don't want to question the producer's judgement on that as they have to consider many facts and stats before taking the decision.
I was so happy seeing some of my fav songs being performed here and getting remixed. Also many new songs got showcased which were composed and written by the contestants. The most memorable song for me in this show is GAEHWA, its music and lyrics are unique and mesmerizing. The final lineup of the bands have amazing talented boys and some of my fav contestants. I am going to root for the 2 bands (PSY and JYP) who are going to debut in the future. <33

loved this show!
So I only started watching Korean Music shows last year when I somehow got sucked into Kingdom Legendary War. Before I wasnt even aware and not in the Kdrama/Kpop scene. That is a good thing about all this Corona Lockdown last year, in my desperation I started watching things I would otherwise just not given the time and I never looked back!I absolutly loved Kindgdom (and also of course watched Road to Kingdom and Queendom now) and when LOUD started I was watching it right from the start, waiting impatiently each week for the next episode. I was blown away by the talent and the production of those stages. I will never forget the first stage for the PNation Team.. it was just so epic. I was fully rooting for PNation btw, I am in loooove with Psy, the way he coached and rooted for the boys. His face when they performed was so priceless! All his reactions felt so real and honest.
And of course loved watching the boys blossom and turning into stunning performers. Its amazing to see some of them shy and awkward and the minute they hit the stage they turn into different people. And even though I shed a tear now and then when boys got eliminated it was mainly fun to watch. I cannot wait for the PNAtion team to debut and see what they come up with. I do hope Eun-Hwi will be producing the music and maybe, just maybe Daniel might do a guest appearance one day. I wish both teams all the luck and hope they are successfull.

A Powerful, Emotional, Music-Driven Journey with Incredible Talent
LOUD is honestly one of the best — if not the best — music survival shows I’ve ever watched. From the very first episode it grabbed my attention, and I ended up finishing all 15 episodes in just 4 days. That alone should tell you how addictive and well-made this show is.What makes LOUD stand out is the incredible level of talent. Every contestant feels like a real performer — strong vocals, impressive dance skills, creative self-produced stages, and a level of professionalism you usually only see after debut. The show isn’t just about competing; it’s about watching these young artists grow, challenge themselves, and show what they’re truly capable of.My personal favorites were Daniel and Eun Hwi. Both of them completely stole the spotlight in their own ways. Daniel’s stage presence and emotion are unforgettable, while Eun Hwi’s creativity, musicality, and unique style make every performance exciting to watch. But honestly, so many contestants were amazing that it’s hard to list them all.The pacing is great, the performances are memorable, and the emotional moments feel real, not forced. It’s a show that stays with you long after it’s over.If you enjoy music, performance-based competitions, or just want to see incredibly talented young artists giving everything they have, LOUD is absolutely worth watching.
Highly recommended.
