I-LAND is perhaps the hottest observational survival reality show in the industry right now, and today, on the 18th of September is the finale of this grand show. In I-LAND, Over 20 young male K-pop trainees, born between 1997 and 2008, attempt to become the hottest new thing in global pop music.

The prize could not be more alluring: The new boy band's executive producer will be Bang Si Hyuk, the co-CEO of Big Hit Entertainment, and the mastermind songwriter and producer who helped create K-Pop superstars BTS. Bang Si Hyuk is the general producer overseeing the action. And he is also joined by several superstar producers: K-pop A-listers Zico of Block B and solo star Rain. Together they honed the I-Landers into the final contestants that they are today. After a long and hard journey of 113 days of pure hard work, dedication, and perseverance, they're at the finals, a step away from debuting.

In episode 11, the ranks were as follows from 1-9:

  1. K
  2. Ni-Ki
  3. Sunoo
  4. Heeseung
  5. Sunghoon
  6. Jay
  7. Jake
  8. Daniel
  9. Jungwon

Finally, Hanbin was eliminated from I-Land, much to the dismay of fans. And then there were nine.

The last test of the show will determine the debut group, which contains seven members. The top 6 trainees will be selected from global votes that last from September 5 until 18, the final live-broadcast episode, while one trainee will be chosen by the producers. The final vote will begin and end during the final live-broadcast episode (further details will be shared in the episode). In this episode, the 22 trainees will be united as they will perform one final song together.

BTS appeared on I-LAND for a pivotal episode where they gave important advice to the I-Landers as seniors in the industry as well as older brothers, and they are set to return once more for the grand finale of the show!
