Spoiler Warning.
This show takes the concept of idol shows and gives an interesting take judging by the first episode. It's in the realm of something akin to American idol or Xfactor or well it would be if it decided to continue in an interesting direction. Unfortunately the show does not do this as because these girls develop a sisterly bond with each other whilst knowing each other for almost no amount of time. Not to mention the ENTIRE point is they compete against each other in this cutthroat industry. In episode 10 they give us hope with a plot twist where the girls refuse to

vote anyone off and they leave to go alone. This idea goes nowhere because by episode 12 they're back in selection project gaming the system. The characters are nothing special each girl has their one unique trait and they only talk about those things and they have no depth. e.g. the food girl is always eating/talking about food. None of the emotional moments are really that impactful because some of the problems are just outrageous overreactions or so obvious that you just want them to get to the point so you can move on. The main issue is that it gave the viewer expectations that it would/could be something different to general idol shows but then completely ignored its most interesting prospect. Finally the last episode in particular felt insulting as the main girl has to be rushed to hospital before the group perform live. As the viewer we know she will return because that's how these things work in stories. But when a girl who had a heart transplant has to be rushed to hospital and has some kind issue relating to her heart that lead to her being in hospital in the first place suddenly wakes up, eats a strawberry sweet and then rushes back to the stage and is able to perform back to back songs like nothing even happened and no doctors clearance was the final straw for me it's such an unfathomable situation that if I wasn't so insulted that I would respect them playing it off as if nothing happened. Anyway at least the adults actually look like adults good work there.
