Xiaoting was eliminated and it was speculated that she was given almost 0 screentime. With that, Korean netizens can't help but deduce why Xiaoting was eliminated and they pointed out her visuals.
Korean netizens commented:
- No, that face...
- There must have been a lot of talented people because of the large population.
- I heard it's because it's not the flashy face that Chinese people prefer, it's close to innocence + not strong personality...
- Do Chinese women choose macho style?
- She's pretty... I wonder who debuted hahaha
- It's the face that Koreans like
- I thought Shen Xiaoting was a favorite in China too...but looking at girls, she was definitely the calmest character among Chinese trainees
