Netizens shared their reactions, and while many fans were happy for many of the members, it was Omar and, to a lesser extent, Shen’s final ranking in the top seven that sparked criticism. Many thought there were other trainees who deserved a spot in the debut group more and that they didn’t fit in with the skills and talent of the others.

In particular, many thought that Omar was too young and while the oldest member is Yetao (who was born in 2000), the youngest member was born in 2009, making him 15 years old.

The group is set to make their debut later in the year.
