[Ep. 2] Besides the fact that this test doesn't assess (live) vocals and questionable mentor evaluation standards, making people dance a 3.5 minute song over 30 times with no real break, no water, on a high platform is such a strange way to show how "brutal" the idol industry is. Even seasoned dancers get proper breaks when they're being evaluated because no one can be at their peak when they're exhausted.
No concert has artists doing heavy dances for several hours straight. They always mix up slower songs, talking ments, video breaks, etc. in between. I looked up Lee Seunggi's history and found out he's a BALLAD singer. This guy has never done hard choreo professionally and has the audacity to tell Sun Yinghao and the other trainees that they need to "overcome fatigue and deliver the best performance." This is not innovative or a good strategy to garner new and sustaining viewers.
