In a statement, a representative of the broadcaster stated the following:
“It is true that contestant Seok Matthew ranked 9th among the G-Group in the first group battle for signal music fancam video rating. Your ranking is the result of converting views [dos vídeos de fancam individuais dos competidores] on the official Boys Planet YouTube channel in points and listed according to the fancam rating method (‘views’ + ‘likes’ x 100) that you previously reported.”.
The production continued the positioning explaining that “At the time, Krystian It is Wang Zi Hao of the G-Group were unable to participate [na avaliação] due to health reasons at the time of filming the signaling music fancam, therefore, they were excluded from the evaluation.
