do you think the produce series will still continue on with the vote rigging investigation?

[𝙩𝙚𝙙𝙙𝙮𝙗𝙖𝙚]

im stuck in between a yes and no. i hope mnet and the agencies/ people who were involved in the vote rigging scandal faces the punishment , imagine all the produce x 101 boys going into the program with the hopes of debuting as x1 but eventually getting eliminated due to mnet's plans. thats just pure evil.

 

[ᴅᴇᴇᴘ ᴅᴀʀᴋ ♔]

so far a couple of the staff members in produce x 101 have been arrested, so they deserve the punishment that they needed because it is not fair to those who have been working really really hard to vote for their preferred trainees to be in the finals, and yet the trainees that got the most votes rather than those that got in to the finals but didn’t get the most votes is just f**ked up.
but since it’s Mnet I feel like the vote rigging might continue, since it happened in other Mnet survival shows as well.

They'll probably just rebrand it as a new name but essentially the same thing

 

[~moonlight tea~]

I think it'll continue cuz mnet loves money and they know people (like me) will still watch it despite the rigged votes

 

[mashikyukyu]

even though mnet went through the entire investigation and arrests and stuff, the audience are still going to demand it. and all these entertainment companies kind of depend on the show for recognition so doesnt matter if ppl are iffy on the whole rigged case, we're going to get it either way.
i mean, look at china and japan. they even made their seasons of produce, not to mention idol producer got their structure from them.
plus fans (such as me) really love the show either way, so ill think they'll be happier if the trainees are shown equally and can show their individuality AND arent villain-ized by the show (aka that one trainee that was portrayed as a bad guy in S2 so he was eliminated bc of such low support)

Simple answer: Despite the controversy, the series will probably continue as Produce or under another name :/

I say that yes, probably. Mnet survival shows become really famous and so do the groups that are formed in them. Sure, there are many well-known groups that came out from survival shows but aren't really known for the show itself, y'know? Monsta X, Stray Kids, Twice, ikon, Winner, Big Bang, Pentagon, etc. are some groups that went through survival shows yet people don't really know about it. Another example: KBS tried it with The Unit and even if the judges were all pretty famous idols, UNB and UNI.T didn't get much recognition in the industry. And the audience will still participate, maybe even get rougher since they know that the votes might be manipulated in the end. Not keeping the show would be a big loss both for the agencies and mnet itself, sooo...

The Produce serie will continue, even if the group disband, they had huge propularity during their short time of promotion, it was stratospheric.

And popularity means income for Mnet and the companies involved. They just have to amend themselves, changing some frontend PD, giving some stick paper letters behind the back and everything will be fine.

With some good evil edit they will manage to have the groups they want.

Exactly. However; there's a chance of X1 disbanding
