'BOYS II PLANET' Hits 450K Views with 'PLANET DAY' – A Global Celebration for Fans

'BOYS II PLANET' has wrapped up its 'PLANET DAY: PRIVATE STAGE' event, creating another special memory for participants and star creators alike.

The world-scale debut project by Mnet, 'BOYS II PLANET', aiming to form a top-tier K-pop boy group, is garnering increasing attention.

In the third episode, participants from Planet K and C, who have proven their skills and potential, finally united as one planet.

With the first mission, participants will perform cover stages of K-pop artists who have won rookie awards at the Mnet year-end awards, drawing interest in the outcome of the '1vs1 Rank Battle'.



The participants' performances sparked significant buzz both domestically and internationally. On TVING, the real-time viewership share approached 80%, and global viewership on Mnet Plus increased by over 50% from the previous week, proving explosive interest.

On global social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and China's Weibo, reactions from star creators worldwide were equally explosive. This offline event, held amidst such enthusiasm, offered a meaningful moment to connect directly with fans and continue the program's success.

Held on August 2 at the CJ ENM Center in Mapo-gu, Seoul, 'PLANET DAY' was themed around the 'PLANET CLUB FAIR', where attendees could meet representatives from 'Planet High School' clubs during the summer break season.



Kwon Doyeon, active as a dancer and creator, transformed into a trainee teacher to lead the event, while 80 participants joined 10 clubs (Student, Library, Soccer, Photography, Band, Tea Ceremony, Art, Dance) to showcase their charms through tailored props, witty introductions, and photo sessions.

Star creators who overcame fierce competition to attend the event participated as 'new students' of 'Planet High School', responding with enthusiastic cheers and camera flashes to the participants' exceptional fan service.

As the event concluded with heartfelt thanks like "Today was truly happy because of you. I can't wait for our next meeting. Let's meet often," both participants and star creators couldn't hide their reluctance to part.

For star creators worldwide who couldn't attend, the event was broadcast live on YouTube's official channel and the global platform Mnet Plus, allowing them to join the special celebration.



Through 'PLANET DAY', 'BOYS II PLANET' once again proved to be a global K-pop project of immense interest. With about 40,000 star creators participating in real-time, cumulative views exceeded 450,000, generating a hot response.

Related keywords dominated the real-time trends and search charts on global social media like X and Weibo, with fervent support for the participants continuing.

Meanwhile, the second global vote by star creators, which will determine the fate of the boys, can be participated in once a day through the global K-pop content platform Mnet Plus until 10 a.m. on the 8th.

Among the surviving participants, the lowest-ranked final survivor will be determined during the live streaming of the first survivor announcement ceremony at 3 p.m. on the 8th through a live vote.

'BOYS II PLANET' airs every Thursday at 9:20 p.m., with the '1vs1 Rank Battle' featured in the upcoming fourth episode on the 7th.
