Mnet‘s newest survival show, Queendom Puzzle, begins airing on June 13 and will feature 24 girl group idols competing to form a special project group.
But as excited as many fans are to support their favorite idols on the show, many are also voicing concerns over what they’ve seen in previews in teasers, including Mnet’s infamous “evil editing,” even of contestants who have already dropped out of the show, the keywords used to identify the contestants, and, perhaps most controversially, the ranking system used to put the contestants in tiers.
