Look I think it's safe to make the call that Hu Yetao is not entirely cishet.
The team leader for this group is called Ninja (I'm not going to hashtag his name unless I can come up with a more distinctive hashtag), and he had a perfectly good, flirty and cute self-intro. (I like him a lot, but no-one has main character energy like Hu Yetao.)
When Hu Yetao is about to do his self-intro, #The8 watches how #BamBam responds.
Screenshots are from episode 3 (part 2) of #ChuangAsiaS2, which I'm watching on the WeTV app
Ninja's self-intro turned out to be a set-up for our prettiest princess #HuYetao to devastate everyone present.
This week, groups did covers of songs by GOT7 ("A") and Kiss of Life ("Bad News") but neither of them really grabbed me (there are other songs from both groups that I prefer more).
Next week I'm most looking forward to the group who'll be covering "Super" by Seventeen, and there's a group covering "Still Monster" by Enhyphen.
It tickles me that so many of the songs they're covering are kpop.
There's only one Korean trainee in the group of 60 (for Reasons that are not stated, but can probably be guessed by anyone who's watched a few of these idol survival shows.)
