Alleged filming staff claims 'I-LAND 2' contestants are being mistreated in viral post

AKP STAFF

Alleged filming staff of 'I-LAND 2' is claiming the contestants are being mistreated.

Season 1 of Mnet's 'I-LAND' produced the debut of ENHYPEN, and viewers have been looking forward to the second season, which is expected to debut a girl group. On March 9, a post by someone claiming to be filming staff for season 2 went viral.

According to the alleged filming staff, the production director (PD) is mistreating the contestants on the show, many of who are minors. The poster further claims the contestants were only able to sleep 2 hours and still were scolded by the PD in question. The set is also allegedly not the best environment for filming due to heating and dust.

Read the alleged staff's viral post below:


"I went to the filming set for 'I-LAND 2' yesterday, and it was ridiculous how the PD treated the contestants, who are minors.

The contestants only got around 2 hours of sleep at most, but they were forced to film from the early hours of the morning. When they showed they were tired, the PD gave them a hard time for 'not being earnest at all.'

After all of that? Just how earnest was the PD himself at work? F**k. He ordered a 9-hour delay for filming and made the staff leave work in the early hours of the morning. Is he crazy? Is his brain structured like maze runner?

They even stuck a sign on the wall to instruct staff not to mistreat the contestants. If this is how you treat them when the sign is up, how bad was it when the sign wasn't there?

How is it possible the contestants were so mindful of the PD that they had to group up just to say they wanted to go to the bathroom? It's scarier that they weren't even told to do that, but they decided to do that themselves.

The heating wasn't working properly, so the main stage was freezing too. They made the contestants wear skimpy outfits, and they were all shivering from the cold.

There was also a ton of dust on set. It was like we were filming Dune 3 or something. In the middle of that, they made the contestants dance and sing so much, saying we had to film footage of them practicing. I feel like if the contestants blew their nose back at their dorm, their boogers would be black. I know mine were.

I hope the networks that don't have the ability to produce something all disappear. Please. Who cares about the damn non-disclosure agreement. I hope cancerous Mnet gets crushed up like little sesame seeds and buried as trash."



What are your thoughts on the accusations?
