i subbed right away when i saw illit and i'm so glad you're starting out their variety content!! they’re truly the sweetest girls ever and have such fun personalities i have never had more fun stanning a group. hearing you say you thought yunah would have calm mom energy and then slowly discovering her personality was sooo funny, this is only her first layer lol. i think super illit (i'll like you is a separate one, if i'm not mistaken for when they travel. super illit is their main variety) is my favorite idol variety show behind going seventeen, the producers are so kind to them and yet the members put so much into making the content interesting that i always spend the whole episode laughing. i remember pre-debut i was a bit worried they’d all be too introverted the episodes would be boring but yunah alone could make content funny honestly, and the rest of the members charms shine through and makes them so easy and enjoyable to watch!!
about youngseo, they never have said why she left exactly. it's unlikely she left because of the concept though because they heard magnetic for the first time as a group of 5, not 6, and she actually really loves pink and cute things. i watched R U Next and have been following them since, so i was really upset when youngseo left and this is my first time rewatching since then. i finally feel like i can get through these episodes without being too sad now that she’s redebuted and we’ve had some interactions, and seeing your reactions to learning the members makes me all the more excited!! also as you asked, the girls have recently moved into new dorms and now all have their own rooms so this feels even more special to watch after knowing that! i can’t wait to see more reactions in the future!! sorry for the whole essay i just love when people appreciate them and give their content a chance
