After the end of the first round of viewer voting this December 3, it was revealed that 71 of the 170 contestants were eliminated, leaving only 99 participants remaining. By the end of the show, 'Mix Nine' will pit the final 9 members of the female trainees against the final 9 members of the male trainees to determine which group will earn a chance to debut, in April of 2018.
Reports say that the final debuting team will embark on an overseas tour beginning in April of 2018, until possibly August-December. The group's production team has currently confirmed approximately 15 cities in Asia, North America, South America, Europe, and more, with more requests flooding in. The number of cities is expected to go up to 20-30.
Furthermore, it seems that the losing team between the male and the female groups may also have a chance to promote after the show ends. Reports claim that both the final 9 girls and boys teams will promote in 2018.
Finally, the winning debut team will also reportedly get a reality show shortly after their debut. It sounds like YG has a lot in store for the surviving teams of 'Mix Nine'. Which contestants are you rooting for?
