An Interesting Look At Korean VS. Global Viewers Votes For “Boys Planet” Contestants

Some are definitely more popular in Korea than globally, and vice versa!

 

If you’ve been keeping up with the survival show Boys Planet, you likely have a favorite contestant or contestants you’re rooting for to end up in the final nine-member line-up.

 

As of the third episode of the show, a couple of contestants — Sung HanbinSeok Matthew, and Kim Jiwoong — have been taking the lead and are ranked at the three highest positions. The show is far from over, though, so there’s still time for others to leap the ranks in later episodes!
