"You're actually bad at games"… Mental battle of 'Men of Weflip', who was shaken?

In an episode of 'IDOL 1N2D', which captures the 2-day, 1-night journey of idol members, a mental test was conducted as the final gateway to becoming a true 'Man of Weflip'. This mission, which requires proving strong mental strength, was carried out in a way where participants must endure 100 seconds without being shaken by the opponent's questioning attacks. Under the rule that they are eliminated if the mental detector worn on their heads reacts, sharp exposures and pleasant verbal battles between the members continued.

"You took it from me yesterday"… The 'real' relationships of the members that cannot be hidden

As the mission began, the members threw unrestrained questions based on the relationships they had built so far. A member pointing at Choi Min-jae began the attack, saying, "Aren't you embarrassed if it's discovered that you're actually bad at games every day and ask me to play for you instead?" In response, Min-jae defended himself by denying his gaming skills, but the tension on site escalated as specific exposures followed, such as "You did lose your mental strength to me yesterday and took my phone, didn't you?"

Questions regarding the hierarchy and relationships between members also appeared. One member delved into the opponent's psychology, saying, "You're actually scared of Gae-un hyung, fearing he might win," while another member mentioned a past defeat, saying, "You honestly lost your mental strength when you lost in the car last time." In particular, they employed various types of attacks that shook the mental detector, such as launching a compliment attack by mentioning the '07-liner lineup, saying "I think you are the top among 07-liner celebrities," or asking for a definition of their relationship, saying "You know we are friends if the two of us go out to play, right."

From 0 to 40 points… Diverging mental scores and the final showdown

After the intense 100-second verbal battle, the members' mental scores were revealed. The scores varied drastically from 0 to 40 points. Dong-wan recorded 0 points, showing the most shaken appearance, Kim Donghyun recorded 20 points, and Tae-jun and Choi Min-jae received 30 points each. Ultimately, the protagonists who recorded the highest score of 40 points were Ju-hwang and Gae-hun. As the two tied for first place, they engaged in a single sudden-death match to determine the final winner.

A strange atmosphere flowed even between the two who faced off to decide the final winner. Especially when members who are roommates faced each other, questions mixed with disappointment were exchanged, such as "You tell me everything, so why don't you talk when it's just the two of us?" The mental detector reacted incessantly during the process of pointing out each other's changes by mentioning ad-libs on stage or recent changes in activities.

"You will go far if you wear a mask"… A strange tension between exposure and praise

Towards the end of the mission, questions mentioning past fortunes or capturing the characteristics of members continued. When the fortune-telling story "You will go far if you wear a mask" came up, the members showed reactions as if it coincided with actual situations. Additionally, the process of defining each other's images was depicted, such as describing a specific member's character as being 'like LEGO' or mentioning their appearance on stage.

This mission went beyond simply testing mental strength and served as a place to show how deeply the members know each other. The process of determining the 'Man of Weflip' became an opportunity to reaffirm the members' relationships, as strategies to break the opponent's defense mechanism with compliments intersected with attacks to shake them by digging up minor past habits.
