Club Nexz (2024)

Lovable rookie pre-debut reality show ~ Super fun & cute, with some emotional moments !

This reality show features NEXZ (the new JYP Boy group formed through the Nizi Project Season 2 survival show) before their official debut on the 20th May 2024.

As auditions for the survival program started in first quarter of 2022, and that some of the members (Tomoya, Haru, Seita and Hyui) even trained prior to that together at JYP, they have all know each other and worked together since quite a bit of time. You really feel they are close and that they love their team members.

I wish that in addition of the snippet of "Miracle" (NEXZ's predebut song) in the generic, we had more music challenges incorporated into the show. But as the aim was focusing on developing the variety skills (and also seemingly the Korean language skills) of the group members (who are all Japanese), I understand this writing choice. Overall, the soundtrack of the show and sound effects were nice in hyping the boys.

I strongly recommend this to people that enjoy idol programs. It is super fun to follow and even if you have not watched their survival program, it is very good at introducing the boys and their dynamics. The editing and production are really good, you feel they had some budget to film the various missions which are all very different. It is on par with similar experienced idol groups shows (such as SKZ code with Stray Kids, To Do with TXT, En-O'clock with Enhypen to name a few). If you have enjoyed any of those, I am pretty sure you will enjoy Club NEXZ. My only regret is that it is too short and I would have loved to have more episodes.
