Mnet's survival show " Boys II Planet " or " Boys 2 Planet " has officially begun and has immediately attracted attention because it features many faces who have already debuted in the South Korean entertainment industry, one of which is Dongheon.
He is the leader, main dancer, and lead vocalist of Jellyfish Entertainment's boy group, VERIVERY. Despite having just completed his mandatory military service in February and possessing a wealth of experience in the K-pop industry, Dongheon gave his all from preparation to his performance on stage.
However, shocking news emerged. Dongheon was reportedly eliminated from the "Boys II Planet" competition, as reported by Koreaboo on Friday night (August 15, 2025). In the latest episode, the elimination rounds rolled around again.
While fellow VERIVERY members who also participated in "Boys II Planet", Kangmin and Gyehyeon , managed to advance to the next round, Dongheon was eliminated because he ranked 49th, just one position outside the qualifying round.
This decision shocked K-Pop fans because it was considered not commensurate with Dongheon's quality and experience. The other VERIVERY members reacted emotionally as soon as the elimination was announced.
Both VERIVERY members couldn't hide their sadness and shed tears as they delivered messages to Dongheon. "I really don't know what to say, but no matter what, our Dongheon hyung is amazing.
No matter what happens, I trust him," Kangmin said via Koreaboo. Gyehyeon was equally emotional, always following Dongheon around. Shock and disappointment also emerged among VERIVERY fans and netizens.
Some even blamed Mnet, which they believed exploited Dongheon's emotional moments to boost ratings without considering the competition's results. However, there are also quite a few who are proud and give support by uploading:
"Dongheon, you were a true star. We're grateful for your hard work on Boys II Planet! You made your team like true Avengers, and it's so sad you were eliminated so early," said the account owner of i**z**i*.
Amidst the disappointment, many fans continue to support the VERIVERY members who are still in the competition, hoping that they will continue to achieve and survive in the increasingly massive K-pop industry.
