For the boys' training, several artists were recruited for the show. Singers Lee Seok-hoon and Shin Yoo-mi were in charge
of vocal training. Rappers Cheetah and Don Mills oversaw rap training. Kahi and Kwon Jae-seung oversaw dance

Soon after they had moved to their dorms on February 26, the participants started filming.[10] A teaser video of who would
be taking "center" (or lead role) for the first song was later revealed.[11]
The contestants of Produce 101 Season 2 appeared for the first time on Episode 514 of M! Countdown on March 9, 2017.
The group was presented by BoA, and the members performed the EDM theme song "나야나 (Pick Me)".[12] The "center"
role was given to Brand New Music's 이대휘 (Lee Dae-hwi). Some participants had previously debuted through NU'EST,

The trainees from each company enter the studio, where seats are arranged in a pyramid with chairs numbered from 1 to
101. Each contestant chooses his preferred seat. Then contestants perform in a group or individually according to their
company for evaluation. Some participants are asked to showcase any dancing, singing, or rapping skills for individual
evaluation. Each trainee is judged on his potential and judges grade and assigned them into temporary groups for
training: A, B, C, D, and F (with A being the highest and F the lowest). At the end of the episode, the popularity vote
revealed Maroo Entertainment's Park Ji-hoon at 1st place who became popular after a gif of his wink at the end of the "나
야나 (Pick Me)" performance went viral.[17]
The trainees started their second mission: group performances in front of a live audience. 16 teams are formed to compete
for 8 songs given: Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry", Shinee's "Replay", 2PM's "10 out of 10", B2ST's "Shock", Infinite's "Be
Mine", EXO's "Call Me Baby", BTS's "Boy in Luv", and SEVENTEEN's "Mansae". Being the center, Lee Dae-hwi chooses
his team first. Following the finalized picks for his team, by random draw, Lee Dae-hwi picks Hwang Min-hyun to choose
his team. The remaining 14 team founders are also chosen by random draw. Each group consists of 5-7 members. The
team founders then compete for songs individually through a race: only 8 can secure their desired songs and choose their
opponent from the remaining 8 teams who lose in the race. The episode later showed the groups rehearsing and assigning
roles of the 'leader', 'center', 'main vocalist', 'sub vocalists', and 'rappers'. Each song is then performed live by the two
groups and each member is voted on separately by the live audience. The winning team among the two is determined by
combining the individual scores. Members of the winning group would gain an extra 3000 points each, to be included into
the ranking announcement of the week after. The group with the highest overall points would later perform on M!
Countdown. Only four teams covering "10 Out of 10" and "Call Me Baby" were covered this week.[19]

dam, Ju Won-tak, Kim Yeon-kuk, Woo Jin-young, and Kim Tae-dong), also score the highest, and are able to perform a
special stage on M! Countdown.[20]
(Deep house). Group formations are based on the viewers' poll which was first introduced at the end of Episode 5. The top
12 trainees voted for each song are assigned to the songs first. Due to voting manipulation controversies, however, Kang
Daniel, Lee Ki-won, and Kim Dong-bin are banned from their alleged preferred songs. After they are given their
designated songs, the formed groups started to rehearse.
The second elimination round takes place during the second half of the episode with the remaining 58 contestants from
each company are seen entering the main studio by company. Names of the top 35 trainees are called by BoA one by one
starting from rank 34. In between the second elimination round, a mini contest of who punches the strongest is
conducted. Kang Dong-ho is given the title "Punching King". Kim Jong-hyun receives the 1st place in the ranking
announcement while Kim Dong-han ranks 35th, just escaping elimination.[24]
With the top 20 confirmed, BoA announces the next and final mission – the debut song evaluation. She introduces "Hands
on Me" (produced by The Underdogs and Deez) and "Super Hot" (produced by Ryan Jhun) as the final line-up's debut
songs. She explains that they will be split into two teams of 10, each team composed of one main vocal, six to seven sub
vocals, and two to three rappers. The trainees choose their positions beginning with rank 20 up to 1, with the higher
ranked trainees being given the advantage of replacing the lower ranked trainees and bumping them into another position.
Due to voting manipulation controversies, 17th place Im Young-min had to choose his position first as a penalty. After
positions are confirmed, the trainees begin practicing the choreography and memorizing the lyrics in preparation for the
final stage.

The episode begins showing the boy's audition tapes, as well as their final confessional interviews. An announcement is
then made that viewers will now be able to send SMS votes for one trainee only, which will be added to the online votes in
order to determine the final line-up. The debut evaluation starts off with the eliminated trainees joining the top 20
trainees for a performance of "It's Me (Pick Me)". BoA then reveals that the debut group will be named Wanna One
(Hangul: 워너원).
The episode cuts to the boys performing in two groups. "Super Hot" group (composed of Ha Sung-woon, Kim Samuel,
Kang Dong-ho, Yoo Seon-ho, Ahn Hyung-seob, Lee Dae-hwi, Choi Min-ki, Lim Young-min, Kim Jong-hyun, and Lai
Guan-lin) performs first with Ha Sung-woon as the center of the group, followed by "Hands on Me" group (composed of
Kim Jae-hwan, Kang Daniel, Ong Seong-woo, Bae Jin-young, Hwang Min-hyun, Jung Se-woon, Joo Hak-nyeon, Yoon Ji-
sung, Park Woo-jin, and Park Ji-hoon) with Bae Jin-young as the center of the group. After the performances, a segment is
shown during which trainees watch videos left by their families, some of which surprise the trainees by visiting them in
person. The top 20 trainees also perform together a special song titled "Always (이 자리에)" as a commemoration of their
time throughout the competition.
Voting comes to a close, and ranking announcements begin. Bae Jin-young, Hwang Min-hyun, Yoon Ji-sung, Lai Guan-lin,
Park Woo-jin, Ong Seong-woo, Kim Jae-hwan, and Lee Dae-hwi are announced as 10th to 3rd place, respectively,
confirming them for debut. The top 2 trainees are revealed to be Kang Daniel and Park Ji-hoon once again. Kang Daniel
once again receives the most votes, confirming his position as the center for Wanna One, with Park Ji-hoon in 2nd place.
Finally, 11th place Ha Sung-woon is announced as the final member.

Controversies
According to Ilgan Sports, the staff of Produce 101 Season 2 have tried to find a trainee who talked to the media about
discrimination of the trainees by grade ranking. Ilgan Sports reported that trainees encountered discrimination, such as
level-determined permission to go to the bathroom and eat different meals. Also, there are issues about boys who bullied
other students and plagiarism of choreography.[35]
Maroo Entertainment's Han Jong-youn left the show due to a serious bullying and sexual assault scandal. An alleged
former classmate accused Han Jong-youn of making him masturbate in front of his friends, forcing him to fight with his
friends, and locking him in the cleaning equipment room.[36]
YGKPLUS's Kwon Hyun-bin deleted all of his Instagram posts after they were flooded with negative comments. This was
in response to the show's fourth episode, in which Kwon was seen as unmotivated and received harsh criticism from the
trainers for a lack of practice, but despite this his team won the live performance battle and he received the highest score
out of both teams. During the performance, the trainers commented that the group was "ready to debut". After the
performance, Kwon Hyun-bin stated that "I'm here because I really want to debut as a singer" and "I've put everything on
the line for this". Despite having received the most votes, netizens criticized Kwon Hyun-bin for his "lack of sincerity".[37]
The Vibe Label's Ha Min-ho allegedly tried to engage in sexual relationships with minors. Screenshots of Instagram and
Facebook conversations between him and minor fans were posted online, and he was also accused of sexually harassing
and bullying an ex-girlfriend in middle school.[38] After discussion with Mnet, he left the show and canceled his contract
with his label.[39]

Voting manipulation
In the concept song round of the show, four contestants were accused of cheating by trying to manipulate a vote to
determine which song they would perform. MMO Entertainment's Kang Daniel reportedly indicated which song he
preferred by altering the number of cat emojis in his Instagram biography at the request of a fanpost on a community site.
Mnet decided to penalize the trainees that failed to follow the rules by banning them from choosing the songs in
question.[40]
2Y Entertainment's Lee Ki-won was accused of hinting at his song preference by posting "Oh Ki Won> Sa Ki Won Sam Ki
Won Lee Ki Won" on Instagram. His agency released a statement saying that Lee would be banned from using social
media until the show was over. A subsequent statement said that the posts in question were made by the agency in an
attempt to increase Lee's popularity while he was allegedly sleeping and unaware.[41]
Kiwi Media Group's Kim Dong-bin was also involved, through screenshots of KakaoTalk messages in which Kim's father
asked his fanclub's president to promote "Never" or "Open Up" as the concept song for Kim Dong-bin.[42]
Brand New Music's Im Young-min was later implicated through screenshots of a KakaoTalk chatroom of fans, which
revealed that Im's brother had asked his friend to inform the fans in the chatroom that Im wanted the songs "Never" and
"Oh Little Girl" for his concept song. As this incident was not caught until after the recording of concept evaluation, Im
was penalized with a different penalty during the following evaluation.[43]
Ranking
The top 11 contestants were determined by online and onsite voting, the results of which were announced at the end of
each episode. The top 11 contestants at the final vote determined the final group. For the first and second voting periods,
viewers were allowed to select 11 trainees per vote. During the third round, the system changed to 2 trainees per vote. For
the final round, the system changed to one trainee per vote. Unlike the previous season, only those with South Korean
mobile phone numbers were allowed to vote under a CJ One or TMON account to prevent voting fraud.[44]
