BOYS II PLANET is officially over and we would just like to say.... ice on my teeth, ice on my teeth....…..Maddie, Elle and Ori all agree that this season of BOYS PLANET was one of their favorite survival shows ever (and they’ve seen a lot). The cross-cultural friendships formed by the contestants and the way they supported each other through to the end was so special to watch. THE HUG TO END ALL HUGS between xinlong and zihao post-finale will live on in our hearts FOREVER. (shout out to all the ppl on the internet making edits with taylor swift songs. bless)…..The girls talk it all in today’s finale episode: Masato talking when it’s not his turn (classic), Li Zi Hao getting more screen time than most of the finalists (deserved), Junseo’s hot brother (u know), Xinlong’s acceptance speech (U KNOW), and every amazingly annoying Kangmin moment that MNet finally decided to air (we luv u). ……They also talk about the season in general and give out some well-earned KDROP SUPERLATIVES: Who was the reaction king this season? Who did the most with the least screen time?  Who had the biggest glow-up? THE GIRLS TELL ALL. …..(it’s also amazing how many times we mention lim jack in this episode. ur welcome i guess?)….In true MNet style, this episode is longer than it needs to be - BUT THAT’S THE CHARM OF BOYSPLANET, right??
