1st Assembly Ceremony
[edit | edit source]The first voting period for the 1st Assembly Ceremony took place from October 18 to November 2, 2024. The fans, named World Assemblers, voted for their top seven contestants. Alongside voting for their top 7, World Assemblers would also vote for 14 contestants, to assemble a unit, which seemed to foreshadow performances together. Regarding eliminations, the top 70 trainees who received the most points, calculated through votes received through Korea and through the rest of the world, got to continue onto the next round and the bottom 30 trainees got officially eliminated. During the ceremony, 1, 3, 7, or 9-10 contestants would be called up at a time (69–61, 60–51, etc. 10–8, 7–1, 70) and then they would find out which unit they would be a part of, which are labeled A1 down to A5.

2nd Assembly Ceremony
[edit | edit source]The second voting period for the 2nd Assembly Ceremony took place from November 8 to November 23, 2024. The World Assemblers voted for their top seven contestants. Alongside voting for their top seven, World Assemblers would also assemble five units of seven contestants for each of the new songs introduced, each having their own concept; Neo/Urban (Breaking News), Old School/Retro (KOOL-AID), Fresh/Cool (Merry-Go-Round), Sexy/Bad (Trigger), & Nostalgic/Sentimental (Time After Time). Regarding eliminations, the top half (35) of the contestants who received the most votes got to continue onto the next round and the bottom half (35) of the contestants got officially eliminated. During the ceremony, each pair of opposing teams from the Rival Match, starting from its A1, then 5, 2, 4, and 3, would be called up to find out who is safe from elimination from each unit, excluding the Top 9 contestants, and 35th place contestant. The safe contestants would move to their ranking's seat in the stands for the time being. After ranks 10-34 were confirmed, the 35th place contestant was revealed, through the four candidate method, and then the Top 9 were revealed starting from 9th, then 7th and 8th, and then 6th down to 3rd, and finally 1st and 2nd. After the ceremony, and the eliminated contestants had left, Lee Soohyuk would call up each contestant, in rank order, and give them a number from 1–5, corresponding to 5 different rooms, which would determine each contestant's Assembly for the next mission.
