‘Current King of Singers 2’ has revealed key points to watch ahead of the final stages of the second round team mission, rounds 3 and 4, which will determine the survival and elimination of team members.
The fierce battle of men aiming for the MBN Taegeuk mark, ‘Current King of Singers 2’, has achieved the overall number one spot in Tuesday entertainment for four consecutive weeks, thanks to the passionate response from viewers, and has ranked number one in the non-drama search response category for five consecutive weeks as announced by Good Data Corporation.
In the upcoming sixth episode airing on the 7th, the third round of the main competition will take place, selecting the top team that will advance directly to the third round. The third round of the second main competition will be a trio battle, while the fourth round will be an ace battle, with a brutal rule applied where only the top team survives, and the remaining 20 members will all be candidates for elimination.
The Jin Hae-sung team, which was eliminated in the first round's '1-on-1 Deathmatch Field Selection', has returned from hell with Jin Hae-sung, Kim Joong-yeon, Song Min-jun, Jae-ha, and Yang Ji-won, who were revived through the votes of the masters, showing a stronger determination than anyone else. Thanks to team leader Jin Hae-sung's fighting spirit despite being diagnosed with a herniated disc, they successfully performed 'Nest', which was a performance stage, and topped the first round group battle.
However, after the duet round, they fell to second place overall after being overtaken by the Na Tae-joo team (Na Tae-joo, Seong-ri, Choi Soo-ho, Jeon Jong-hyuk, Yoo-min), raising their sense of crisis. It remains to be seen whether the Jin Hae-sung team can demonstrate their indomitable will to reclaim first place, and why Jin Hae-sung expressed anxiety during the 3rd and 4th round stages by saying, "If I make a mistake, I might fall."
The Enok team caught attention with their rollercoaster scores in the first and second rounds of the second main competition. The Enok team, consisting of Enok, Park Seo-jin, Noh Ji-hoon, Han Gang, and Kim Kyung-min, delivered a performance of 'Sky' in the first round group battle, but received criticism for being dull in showcasing their individual charms, finishing in fifth place. However, in the duet round, Park Seo-jin and Kim Kyung-min turned the atmosphere around with a sexy 'Janggu Water Show', leading to a surprising first place in the duet round.
It remains to be seen whether the Enok team can write a history of reversals in the 3rd and 4th rounds of the second main competition, as a scene was captured of Enok catching his breath and sitting down after performing a trio stage with Noh Ji-hoon and Han Gang, raising curiosity.
The teams led by Kim Jun-soo, who moved viewers in the first round's '1-on-1 Deathmatch Field Selection', and Hwang Min-ho, who won the MVP in the first round, shocked everyone by recording disappointing results from the first round of the second main competition, breaking expectations.
The Kim Jun-soo team (Kim Jun-soo, Hwan-hee, Shin Yoo, Kang Moon-kyung, Choi Woo-jin), which placed third in the first round group battle, and the Hwang Min-ho team (Hwang Min-ho, Shin Seung-tae, Kim Soo-chan, Park Gu-yoon, Gong Hoon), which placed fourth, have combined scores from the duet round and currently sit in third and fifth place, respectively. There is curiosity about whether the two teams can complete a drama to restore their bruised pride.
The fourth round ace battle, which will determine the final fate of the second main competition, will apply a different scoring rule than before. The scoring for the 12 celebrity judges, which was previously 10 points each, will jump to 20 points, doubling the score. With the maximum score from the celebrity judges being 240 points, and adding the 180 points that can be given by the public judges, a total of 420 points can be obtained, making it possible for the fifth-place team to turn the tables and become first.
The production team stated, "Since only the five members of the top team can advance directly to the third round, the active singers on stage are giving their all with a do-or-die mentality, and we are seeing fantastic performances that are hard to believe," they reported.
