A production by Mnet's parent company CJ E&M and its subsidiary Studio Take One, as well as in collaboration with game developer and publisher NCSoft, the aim of the competition was to debut a new 9-member K-pop girl group consisting of trainees and idols from China,[b] Japan, and South Korea. Auditions for the competition were held from January to February 2021.

Out of 13,000 applicants, 99 final contestants were selected.[1] These 99 contestants were split equally into three groups; the K-Group, C-Group and the J-Group.

In the finale on October 22, 2021, which was broadcast live, the show announced the final 9 members who would debut as Kep1er.

A second season named Boys Planet featured an all male contestants premiered on February 2, 2023[2][3] featuring male trainees and idols.[4]

Concept and format

edit

The "planet" theme of the show was derived from a new collaboration between Mnet and NCSoft's new platform called Universe which is centered around K-pop.[5] It allowed votes from other countries outside of the participating three,[c] and also hosted other promotional content for the show.

The show initially grouped the girls into groups of 3 which were called "cells." An entire cell of girls could be eliminated all at once, hence increasing the risk of elimination. To counteract this, the "Planet Top 9" is introduced. Contestants who are selected or voted to be the Planet Top 9 (designated P1 to P9) can reorganize cells to try and lower the chances of elimination. Cells were disbanded after the first elimination round. At the end of the competition, the top 9 most-voted contestants debuted regardless of nationality.

Promotion and broadcast

Yeo Jin-goo was announced as the show's presenter on June 8, followed by the reveal of the mentors and the name of the show's opening theme later that same month.[6] More promotional clips from the show were broadcast that month on Mnet.

The show's premiere date of August 6, 2021, was confirmed through a teaser video released on July 6, 2021.[7] Another teaser video showcasing the faces of the 99 contestants was released on July 8, along with a promotional poster.

The theme song, "O.O.O (Over&Over&Over)," was released on July 12, 2021, accompanied by a performance by the Korean group with Kim Dayeon as Center. Another version of the performance featuring the Chinese group was released on July 14 with Shen Xiaoting as Center. The Japanese group's version was released on July 16 with Hikaru Ezaki as Center. The full version containing all three groups was released on July 29 during M Countdown, preceded by the contestants' profiles which were released from July 17 to 19 at 10 AM KST for each group.[8] More teasers were released in July and August 2021 leading up to the show's premiere.

The show was available through Mnet in South Korea, iQIYI in China, AbemaTV and Mnet Japan in Japan, tvN Asia in Southeast Asia, and YouTube in the rest of the world through Mnet's YouTube channel, Mnet K-POP.[citation needed]

The episode opens with all 99 girls being divided into cells, each consisting of a Korean, Chinese, and Japanese contestant. Groupings are based on a variety of characteristics common to the girls, such as type of career and personal interests. The competition's host Yeo Jin-goo and mentors are introduced. Yeo then explains the rules of the competition, revealing that a cell of girls can all be eliminated at once; he also explains that if a girl lands a spot in the "Planet Top 9", they will be given the option to rearrange cells. Each girl is evaluated to determine whether they should be considered to become a Planet Top 9 candidate and their initial ranking is revealed prior to each performance based on the theme song evaluation test.

Evaluations continue, and the Planet Top 9 for the episode are announced; the top three contestants consisted of Hikaru Ezaki (J-Group), Kang Yeseo (K-Group) and Shen Xiaoting (C-Group). The cells are then either rearranged or kept. The next day, the girls participate in a mission where they have to connect with their childhood photos. The fastest teams are given priority to form teams for the first mission, dubbed as the "Connect Mission". There are two categories in the Connect Mission round. The main category consisted of four girl group songs (Blackpink - How You Like That, Iz*One - Fiesta, Twice - Yes or Yes, Oh My Girl - The Fifth Season (SSFWL)). The four winning teams will have their vote count doubled 24 hours before voting concludes. The second category is known as EBS (Exo - The Eve, BTS - Mic Drop, and Seventeen - Pretty U). Only one team can win in this category but their vote count will be tripled 24 hours before voting concludes. Each team consisted of three cells each, with nine members per team and eleven teams overall. The best out of the five winning performances will perform on M Countdown after the mission.

Several days before the team performances, a dance battle is held to determine the order in which the teams will perform. Following the dance competition, the teams continue to practice, with the mentors offering feedback on how to improve. The group performances then begin. "Yes or Yes" Team 1 wins, followed by "How You Like That" Team 1. The episode ends with the "Eve" team about to perform.
