i'll attatch a few videos from ygtb now, with commentary!!
i already posted his first clip, which he arranged, so here's him in the first group evaluation, in ep 3
seokhwa actually didn't have much screentime during ygtb, but he did have diary cams, which were videos where he basically talked about what he was doing. at first he was nervous about the cameras but eventually he started getting more enegetic with them
he was/is close friends with treasure's jaehyuk, jaehyuk called him the person he could rely on the most and said without seokhwa he'd be a fish without bones lol
a pic of him, jaehyuk and fellow trainee yunseo was (jaehyuk's) lockscreen back then

when eliminations came around, he teamed up with treasure's asahi. they later found out they had to go against each other...they performed what2do by dean, and seokhwa won. (their trainer had harshly said he would've picked asahi during training though)
+++ a funny ? addition to this, they were an interesting team because their nicknames were "stone" (seokhwa) and "robot" (asahi) because of their trouble with showing facial expressions.
moving on, seokhwa advanced to the semifinals. the remaining trainees had to pick 2 fellow trainees they wanted to team up with, and the 2 with the most votes were the leaders. cix's bx and treasure's hyunsuk had the most votes. no one voted for seokhwa.
there were 3 teams, team hyunsuk, team byounggon, and the remaining trainees that weren't chosen. seokhwa was in the group that wasn't chosen. because of this, his group had last pick on the song for the group performance, and they were left with growl by exo.
seokhwa had baekhyun's part, and yes he did sing the high note; here's him practicing it!
BUT...yg was trashy again and cut all his parts to the point that he only had about 2 seconds of actual lines. (0:44, 1:30, 1:37 is where you can hear him. he is doing the higher notes.)
growl team got the least amount of votes and 4 members had to be eliminated. seokhwa was among the first two. after ygtb, seokhwa left yg and opened up his instagram account, stone_dol2!
gon also said after going to japan him and hun met with seokhwa and another trainee to eat (gonhun paid because they're the hyungs)
seokhwa was featured in a friend of his, aron's song called "running out of time"
heres a video of him playing with filters in his first instagram live!
+ a lil fact about him that a few fellow trainees have said!
he seems intimidating at first but he's actually really friendly and funny. jyunhao said when he saw him in the hallway he would go hello ~ (formal) and seokhwa would be all HEYYY

moving on passed the opening of his ig cause i kinda went off track lol...anyways he disappeared for about a month in february. we didn't really hear anything from him and i was worried because he went private on ig...but then boom. this happened
seokhwa auditioned for produce x 101 as an independent trainee. heres a focus of him during their performance of pretty u by seventeen!
this is when he gained a lot more fans than he had before. he actually ranked 21 on the first episode, which was his peak!
during the first team eval, seokhwa was in exo mama team. he said that him and yunseong taught the choreo! heres his fc from that. he got 30 votes
moving onto the next team evaluation, seokhwa was part of one of the most popular/iconic teams...twit team! honestly, this performance caught me off guard because he was showing much more facial expressions and even the judges noticed!
honestly he didn't have much screentime on produce either so i don't have a lot to show for that era. until the monday to sunday team .... seokhwa was rumored to be center. but the next round of eliminations was coming up and ,,, this is what happened..
sadly seokhwa was eliminated at rank 35, and wasn't able to participate in monday to sunday team. there was a chance for one eliminated trainee to come back, but he wasn't chosen. here was one of the things he sang trying to come back.
