Where are the 'MIXNINE' debut lineup members now?

AKP STAFF

'MIXNINE' was a reality survival show which was broadcasted on JTBC. Idols from several South Korean agencies competed in the competition to make the final nine lineup. The contestants were personally picked by the judges and on the final episode of the show, the last nine boys won against the final nine girls and were set to debut as idols.
