!! I DO ALSO WANT TO SAY. I've been seeing a lot of negative/hateful comments about J Balvin and while I personally do not like him as an individual very much (just personal preference) - I do want to say that I think we should take his attitude(?) on the show with a grain of salt. Like Hongjoong said, he was probably nervous, anxious, etc. He wasn't prepped and molded like kpop artists are to do intense choreographies and stick to a specific image. That's just the reality and the differences of Kpop artists versus other genres (aka. the point of the show). HOWEVER. I WANT TO SAY THIS. While this may be an explanation, it is NOT an excuse. We literally have Kylie RIGHT THERE as an example of a western artist who is not familiar with kpop standards but still embraced and was enthusiastic not only about bonding with the boys, but also being open to korean culture and adapting her song to the "ateez kpop style". J Balvin is a grown ass man, not a toddler. You shouldnt need 26 year old kim hongjoong holding your hand and babying you mister 40 year old "composer". Sure he appreciated the boys taking him out, but it felt like trying to get him to learn ONE second of footwork was like trying to forcefeed a 4 year old cough syrup.

ANYWAYS, whats important is that OUR ATEEZ did well and OUR ATEEZ proved once again that they're wonderful sweet boys who give their all at everything they do and OUR ATEEZ are the ones we should be focusing on and praising for doing so well in such a short amount of time
