The final stage consisted of performances by the remaining 7 trainees, as well as performances with all 9 trainees, including the 2 previously eliminated trainees Felix and Lee Min Ho

As for the reason why he's giving a second chance to the eliminated trainees, J.Y. Park explained, "After the missions, the (performances with only the) 7 members seem more organized and had greater chemistry but there was this unknown energy of the first 9 members that kept coming back to my mind. I wanted to see it again."


"YaYaYa" by 7 trainees 



After seeing the first performance of "YaYaYa" by the 7 trainees, J.Y. Park gave out much praise, commenting, "I used to share the good and bads of each member but it was hard to single out the members because the 7 of you really seemed like one team. You guys have changed a lot."


"Young Wings" by 7 trainees 



The compliments continued for the trainees after the second performance. J.Y. Park stated, "The angle was perfect in the choreography in the beginning where the 7 members kneel and used their two arms."


Next, the performances with all 9 trainees took place. 


"Hellavator" by all 9 trainees



"Grrr" by all 9 trainees



J.Y. Park expressed satisfaction at the performances with all 9 trainees and complimented Lee Min Ho and Felix for their improvements. 


The final votes poured in and the results showed that vast majority (96%) wanted the new boy group to have all 9 members.


Ultimately, all 9 trainees - Bang Chan, Kim Woo Jin, Lee Min Ho, Felix, Seo Chang Bin, Hwang Hyun Jin, Han Ji Sung, Kim Seung Min, and Yang Seong Jin - have been confirmed for JYP Entertainment's new boy group and achieved their goal to debut together. 


Congratulations!
