Produce 101 is a South Korean reality series. The show's goal was to create Korea's ultimate IdolSinger groups. To accomplish this, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin pools of 101 trainees from various agencies]] were gathered. The first season (2016) was focused on creating a GirlGroup. The second season (2017) has the same premise but with male contestants.

In the first season, These contestants ran the gamut from Somi, a trainee with JYP, one of Korea's largest agencies, to a batch of independent trainees. To create the final group, Music/{{IOI}}, the girls were evaluated by a panel of judges/mentors and also by the general public, whose votes would ultimately decide who was eliminated, and who debuted. The 2nd season's final group Music/{{WannaOne}} were also made from the top 11 of various contestants, from members of the previously debuted Boy Groups such as NU'EST, Hotshots, Topdogg, etc., trainees as young as 15 years old (Korean age), until individual trainees and trainees with training period less than 6 months.

** For the position evaluation trainees that picked Dance wore shirts, those that chose Vocal wore blue shirts and the ones that chose Rap wore red.

* TheDeterminator: The other boys mentioned that Ahn Hyungseob and Park Seungwoo are extremely hard-working. Jang Moonbok has also refused to give up on his dream despite being bullied after Kpop Star.

* [[invoked]]DyeHard: Lee Daehwi has had his hair dyed 4 time by the 9th episode. There were a lot of hair-dyeing happening between episodes, especially before the elimination.

* [[invoked]]GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Some trainees are much more popular with the international fans than the Korean ones. Kenta, Eunki, Jung Jungm Hwangwoon and Justin are mentioned very often by the international fans, but lacked korean fans. Kim Samuel has a very large international fanbase, his rank has been very shakey.

* MenAreStrongWomenArePretty: While there are definitely pretty boys, the girl never had arm wrestling and punching competitions and instead got make-up lessons.

* MrFanservice: Several trainees like showing off their abs. So far we've seen the abs of Kim Samuel, Park Seungwoo, Kang Daniel, Lee Euiwoong, JungJung, Justin. Made uncomfortable by the fact that some of them are underage.

* OneSteveLimit: Several trainees have the same birth name or stage name. There are two Woojins - the trainee from Brand New Music Park Woojin (Nicknamed Big Woojin) and the show's youngest trainee Lee Woojin (Nicknamed Little Woojin) - and two Seungwoos - the oldest trainee Park Seungwoo and Fantagio's Ong Seungwoo. There are also two Jinyoungs--Bae Jinyoung (commonly referred as Baejin internationally) and Woo Jinyoung (Since there are two Woojins already, he is most often referred by his full name). There are two Minhos as well-- Ha Minho and Han Minho.

* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: A lot of trainees are put into the flowerboy or manly category. Especially Kang Dongho get recognition for being the most manly looking guys participating in the show.

* TeenGenius: A lot of the younger trainees are also considered really good and often praised for their skills, most notably Lee Woojin (15), Kim Samuel (16), Lee Daehwi (17). Yuehua trainee Lee Eui-woong attends a foreign language school where he also is the student-body president of his school and one of the top ranking students in terms of grades.
* TheCameo: Triple H (a subunit made up of HyunA and two Pentagon members)in episode 9.

* TheLoad: Hyunbin. He didn't have any prior skills being only trained as a model. While he improved he was regarded as this by his teammates. Park Sungwoon was also treated like this by a couple of trainees. Daniel and Ong even laughed at him when he picked dance, but he was actually a very hard worker, as described by his teamleader Taehyun who was at first concerned to have him in his team.

** Purple hair - Han Minho, Yoon Jisung,Lee Daehwi (purple-sih)

* TheCameo: Jinyoung of B1A4 produced one of the songs for the concept evaluation and appeared to coach the girls who chose.

* AerithAndBob: Most trainees have normal Korean names but then there are also trainees with names like Samuel and Justin.

* BonusMaterial: Even before the show aired, viewers had been pampered by individual trainees promotion videos, hidden box mission, meringue time (Season 2). There are also Individual Reevaluation videos (season 1), full performances with eye-contact for each trainees, behind the scene videos, self-cameras, etc.

* ExecutiveMeddling: While only the audience can decide a trainee's fate, the producers can decide which trainees to show more and which trainees to edit out as well as who they show in a better light.

* DyeHard: Lee Daehwi has had his hair dyed 4 time by the 9th episode. There were a lot of hair-dyeing happening between episodes, especially before the elimination.

* CustomUniform: There is a crown sticker for center position in a group as well as an 'L' sticker for the leader. In season 1 A-ranked trainee (before first elimination) and top 11 wore e-paulette on their uniforms while in season 2 'center pins' crown badge were used instead.

* TheLoad: The weaker memebrs in the group can be this for the others.

* AerithAndBob: Most rainees have normal Korean names but then there are also trainees with names like Samuel and Justin.

* DyeHard: Lee Daehwi has had his hair dyed 4 time by the 9th episode.

LeitMotiv:'Me, It's Me' Piano Version for sad scene, training montage, or elimination.

* MiddleChildSyndrome: The C class is treated this way, especially after re-evaluation. They got less screentime because they are not as talented as the A and B classes butnot as bad as D and F classes to warrant an improvement edit. After the second elimination [[spoiler: only one C-ranked trainee is left on the show]]. Across the rankings of the entire series those re-evaluated into rank C [[spoiler: never once got ranked higher than the 30's.]].

* WeHardlyKnewYe: Anyone who got eliminated early and didn't get any screentime. Some guys still managed to survive due to a pre-existing fanbase, but were still this to most viewers.
