Episode 11 HD Version Watch Online: Dramacool.tv
[Several hours before the Casting Audition]
[The contestants are all into practicing in the waiting room]
[But these two are focusing on something else]
[Snacks?]
I love inarizushi.
[Kang Pujim is the waiting room's fairy of meok-bang!]
[She's eating wherever she is!]
[Why does she always eat before a performance?]
My singing instructor scolded me once, "Why are you singing weakly? Did you eat?"
I really didn't eat that day and I felt weak while singing.
I once went out to eat in the middle of practice and was filled with energy.
[Enters energetically with energy from eating!]
They're in matching outfits. That's cute.
Hi, we'll be singing with fresh, girl sentiments.
- I'm Pureum. - I'm Ada.
Together we're Pureuda.
[Kang Pureum + Ada = Pureuda]
[Ada Wong (15), Kang Pureum (17)]
Ada Wong was eliminated but was dramatically saved with a wildcard and is here today.
I think you heard the news as you were about to board.
Yes, at the airport.
- How did you feel? - I was really happy.
You left because you thought you were eliminated?
Yes.
If Jung Seung-Hwan is the most sensitive out of the male contestants...
...I'll boldly pick Kang Pureum out of the female contestants.
You're optimized for gayo...
I'd choose her as No. 1 for timbre.
But keep in mind that I get to cast first as you listen.
You Hee-Yeol and I have a lot of expectations for Kang Pureum.
We also have a lot of expectations for Ada Wong who was dramatically saved.
Where do you want to be casted to?
YG says, "I cast Ada." How will you react?
I'll be really happy.
[She desperately wants to get casted but...]
Do you think you'll get casted?
I'm not sure.
[She doesn't have confidence the more she thinks about it...]
[She reads the lyrics of "I'll Write You a Letter"]
[The Korean lyrics are hard since she's from New Zealand]
[Kang Pureum explains it]
[But she still doesn't get it...]
[Ada Wong isn't confident with gayo]
[Kang Pureum is burdened at the huge expectations]
[A few casting cards remain]
[Will they get casted?]
[I'll Write You a Letter - Lena Park]
She's good.
[Her timbre captivates them from the first measure]
[Next is Ada's unique sentiment]
[It's her first time singing gayo but she gave her all...]
Minor songs go well for Ada Wong than major songs.
Your sentiments stand out when singing slightly dark songs.
Kang Pureum's timbre is really good at the first measure of the "A" part.
Especially the whispering parts.
But there's one unfortunate thing. You're very stable at the high notes.
But you need to create something impressive at that point.
Sometimes the three of us think the same thing.
[JYP has the same view as him?]
Ada Wong has the power to make every song into a minor.
He said minor songs go well with you. You lower the key and make it dark.
That's not good and needs to be corrected.
It's because your voice is unstable.
Pureum's problem is when extending the high notes.
You suddenly make this strange shape with your mouth when extending.
And you create such vibrations.
That's why you're good at the verse because you don't make such shapes.
But you do this when you think of extending and singing in vibrato.
[Two judges pointed out the same thing!]
The harmony between you two for this song wasn't good.
But...
...this performance by Ada Wong who was dramatically saved and Kang Pureum...
...I wasn't judging but studying.
I was carefully looking into it.
Why is Kang Pureum from Boryeong always in a team with contestants from abroad?
But why does it not feel awkward?
You have the best gayo sentiments but there's R&B; in the ad-libs.
I was looking into what to make up if in the chance I do cast her.
I can't explain it all in words but it's laid out in my mind.
I thought, "She'll do well if she does this."
I'll end my commentary here.
[What conclusion did YG draw?]
[The fated casting begins!]
[YG's turn]
What was the first line Kang Pureum?
"I'll surely write a letter."
I felt like you would write a letter as if you were communicating telepathically.
I was waiting for you. I cast you.
Thank you.
[JYP used all six casting cards]
- How many do you have Hee-Yeol? - I have two left.
[Antenna Music's turn]
It's my turn Ada.
You have potential and good emotion.
But you're more pop sentiment than gayo.
Actually, I'm confused how to put you right in that sentiment.
Honestly, I feel uneasy having you.
I will not cast you.
[Antenna Music abstains]
[It's YG's turn again]
[This is her last chance...]
Both of them said to Ada Wong that she sings every song as a minor.
A minor is lowering a triad by a half step.
- How did you know that? - I also learned harmonics.
That surprised me.
A person who sings like a minor shouldn't go to this minor agency.
You have to come to a major agency.
I'll show you the power of making a minor into a major.
I'll use my last card and take the challenge in turning a minor into a major.
I cast Ada Wong.
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
Congratulations to you both.
Both are going to the same place. Get a taste of what major is like.
- Congratulations. - I'll do my best.
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
[They really hoped to get the YG casting card!]
[Kiss]
[She must be really happy to kiss the door!]
[They enter the YG casting room!]
[Looking forward to a better performance as much as she was desperate!]
[Who's next?]
[For the first time ever in Round 3, The Best passed with Sparkling Girls]
You have a different guitar Miji.
Yes.
Did you get a new one?
Yes.
- Did you buy it? - Yes.
How much?
- Is it okay for me to say it? - Be honest. I'm curious.
$2,400.
The important thing is where did you get that money?
Was it your parents or did you work for it?
Or she can surprise us by saying John bought it for her.
Be honest. I'm curious.
I bought it with my mother.
Buying a new guitar is very significant.
How much was the guitar you used in the last round?
$200.
- Is this one much better? - It's completely different.
We look forward to the best performance just as the value of your guitar increased.
[In Round 3]
[Their rhythmical arrangement!]
[They captivated the judges!]
It was really good!
It completely destroyed my tastes!
I couldn't believe it. I thought if it was okay for us to have such a result.
I was amazed and dazed at receiving such compliments.
I felt like partying.
We're singing Kim Gun-Mo's "You're a Friend or I'm Lover."
It's a dance song with beats and electronic instuments.
We made it more jazzy since we have to arrange it with keyboard and guitar.
Since "Baby Baby" was huge, it was hard to break away from it.
Expectations for the Casting Audition are high because of the good commentaries in Round 3.
We're burdened to meet those expectations.
We're grateful to have come this far but the next round is even harder.
There's no one to eliminate.
I'm really worried because I think we'll get eliminated instead of passing.
[But...]
[You Hee-Yeol is the only one with casting cards]
They continue to choose good songs.
Neighboorhood, Baby Baby, and You're a Friend or I'm Lover.
- They're all good choices. - Songs rarely heard at auditions.
[Will there be a miracle of getting casted by showing another great performance?]
[You're a Friend or I'm Lover - Kim Gun-Mo]
[Jang Miji made a mistake during her solo!]
[They're worried about the mistake]
[What are the judges' commentaries?]
Some producers are greedy for instruments.
Their room is filled with every new instrument.
I think good music can be made with a small keyboard or cheap guitar.
I'm saying this because you bought a new guitar.
This wasn't as good out of all your performances until now.
Your guitar is more expensive but why not the feel? It was a pity.
Both of you have color and lean towards one genre.
But it isn't a color I like because there's something called preference.
I broke down last time despite that because it was really good.
But today wasn't like last time.
It wasn't new or beyond my expectations.
And Miji's singing wasn't as good.
It was a pitiful performance.
[They didn't get such good commentaries...]
[Next is You Hee-Yeol who's the only one with casting cards]
You two were complimented last time because the arrangement was good.
Both of you focused too much on that.
You had to fall in unison, have solo parts, change chords...there was too much!
It was hard to focus on just one because there were too many elements in one song.
You were musically ambitious.
[His commentary wasn't good either!]
[It's casting time!]
[Only Antenna Music can cast]
I want to ask Jang Miji and John Chu two questions.
[Questions before casting?]
Did the two of you change the chords together?
Yes.
[What's the meaning behind the first question?]
My second question.
Do you want to continue as a team?
Yes.
Even in the next round?
[He finished asking...]
[What is You Hee-Yeol's decision?]
Antenna Music with its 25-year tradition greatly prefers your music.
I also believe we're the best in that field in Korea.
I don't have any confidence to make a better stage for you.
But I have a lot of things to say so I cast The Best.
[Antenna Music casts The Best]
You got your guitar's worth.
Thank you.
[They can't hear anything because they can't believe they passed...]
Miji would've been in a fix if you got eliminated.
[It didn't hit them yet...]
[They head to Antenna Music casting room the place they really wanted to go...]
[Happy You hear]
[Casting Audition is over! Antenna Music chose 5 teams!]
[The fierce Casting Audition is over...]
[But there's one casting card left!]
I'll choose one more from among those that were eliminated.
[Those that were eliminated head for the stage with one last hope!]
[To whom will the last card go?]
Alright.
Let's have those that were unfortunately eliminated on the stage please.
[It's a shame to eliminate them since they're talented...]
I see 13 got eliminated.
You were called for You Hee-Yeol to use his final card.
But you're also here for us to remember you one last time.
We'll make eye contact and remember each individual.
You Hee-Yeol will use his last card.
The last card...
[Who will get the last card?]
I will...
...cast Park Hye-Soo.
[Antenna Music casts Park Hye-Soo]
Thank you.
I didn't expect it at all.
Thank you very much.
Hope you're in a better condition because I don't think it was good today.
Let's talk a lot about music in a better condition.
Thank you all until now!
Is this real?
What just happened?
[They congratulate her as she gets the last casting card!]
[Time to say goodbye]
[She waves and holds back her tears]
[When she's where they can't see her...]
[She bursts into tears!]
[They don't know who'll come]
Hye-Soo?
[The last member joins!]
[A big welcome]
Including Park Hye-Soo, 18 teams advance!
[Several days later]
[First day of JYP training]
Does JYP live there?
[No, he works there]
Did you get a good night's sleep?
- Yes. - No.
I was nervous and couldn't sleep even though I was tired.
I'm just happy.
- Is Australia cold? - No, it's not.
It's a little cold.
Look at the banner.
[They arrived at JYPE!]
[miss A got Lily's attention]
[First day of YG training]
[Seung-Hwan feels awkward as he's the only guy]
Have you tried bungeoppang?
[He tries to share some bungeoppang to get friendly]
[But]
They're from KPOP STAR.
[Wow, she recognizes us]
Jung Seung-Ho.
[Embarrassed]
Pureum.
[She got Pureum's name!]
My son is a fan of yours.
Make it to TOP10.
[Thank you]
[Sniff]
[Katie sniffs it first since she never tried it before]
Where is YGE?
It's that building over there.
The one that looks like this?
[Wow, that's cool!]
[Welcome to YGE!]
[Seung-Hwan is usually emotionless but his eyes are popping out]
[I will be there someday]
[What's first on their schedule?]
[Place of interest at YGE! A visit to the cafeteria]
[Today's menu is bibimbap]
[Increased appetite]
[Hurry up Pureum]
[Generous spread of red pepper paste]
Can I use a lot of sesame seed oil? How much is enough?
That's enough.
I'll add one more drop.
[OMG!]
- Pureum? - Yes?
- You have the most. - Really?
[Bibimbap piled high]
I thought it was a lot...
Thank you for the meal.
I'm eating where BIGBANG ate and using the spoon they used.
I'm very happy right now.
I want to eat this every day.
[First day of Antenna Music training]
[You Hee-Yeol arrived]
[A big welcome with a wave]
[Happy You Hee-Yeol]
The day that I feared is finally here.
Glad to meet you.
Wasn't it tough?
She was the talk of the town...
...I feel sorry and can't look at her because I criticized her severely in the last round.
I poured it on her and I feel sorry.
I didn't cry because I was sad.
I looked at only You Hee-Yeol but you were staring at me.
[During singing]
[He stares]
[During commentaries]
[He stares again]
But that incident made me to respect you.
The problems I was worrying about were somewhat resolved.
That day I was playing hard to get.
One of the ways to approach a woman you like is...
...to get angry from time to time.
If I slap you then you'll think, "I've never met a man like him."
- That was my heart. - I was truly thankful.
[What about at JYPE?]
[JYP arrived]
Hello.
[Throws her arms around him]
[YG's going to cry...]
Alright.
I congratulate you for coming here which is overwhelmingly better than the other two.
[High morale]
Do you know what the next round is?
- Battle Audition! - That's right.
It's the TOP10 if you pass.
We have six here so two each from YG and Antenna Music for TOP10.
[JYP inflames their fighting spirit!]
[What about at YGE?]
[Surprised]
[YG appears]
[Chanting YG in unison!]
Don't do such pretentious things.
Was the food good?
[It was really good]
This round is very important because it's the TOP10 if you advance.
I choose at least five that I think will pass.
We'll consult and help you after listening to what you chose.
[Seo Ye-An goes first]
You may begin.
[The Clown Laugh Watching Us - Kim Wan-Sun Dance song released in 1990 from her 5th album]
I think you should just sing until the chorus part.
Then dance together with a clown.
It's boring to just sing this.
People will expect something just with the title alone.
Radiate your charm and talent.
- Good job. - Thank you.
Jung Seung-Hwan.
Hello.
[All eyes on him]
- I'm really sorry. Can I use the restroom? - Go quickly.
[Some time passed]
I think he got the emotion at the restroom.
Lee So-Ra's "Please." This will be good.
[He carefully gets the emotion again]
[(Please - Lee So-Ra) Ballad released in 2000 from her 4th album]
You're good.
It's good.
Where do you like better? Antenna Music, YGE, or JYPE?
Well...
You'll get along well at Antenna Music.
You'll be nagged a lot at JYPE.
You'll be successful at YGE.
[In short, "Come to YGE"]
You decide since it's your life.
Good job.
Sing "Please."
And please come to YGE.
The three agencies officially begin their training for the Battle Audition.
YGE supports them wholeheartedly worthy of a large agency.
JYPE gives a detailed custom training.
Antenna Music teaches them carefully from song choice to arrangement.
Each agency's training is heating up.
And then one day...
[Antenna Music's office building]
[Watch your head]
Hello.
[He checks as soon as he arrives]
[Peek]
[He busily looks around here and there]
Everything's organized.
It's very clean.
We seldom turn on the heating.
[Even the heating system is perfect]
[Why is he sprucing up the place?]
YG hosted the warm-up match last season.
It's going to be here this time.
I cleaned up early in the morning since JYP and YG are coming for the first time.
Everyone gathered last night to clean and organize.
I don't know what they'll say. I won't stand it if they tease me.
[And then]
[JYP arrived!]
YG isn't here yet, right?
[I have to pretend I'm doing something...]
[He picks up the guitar one by one]
[Watch your head]
[I guess he's here]
- Hee-Yeol! - JYP!
This place is nice.
You need to make a lot of money.
It's really nice.
- First time here, right? - Yeah.
It's cool in here and the interior is nice.
What else is there?
Huh?
What's that? The recording studio?
- There's a lot of things. - Really?
[He looks in the recording studio first]
- We have everything we need. - It's well-supplied.
- We even have a dance room. - Really?
There's one drawback.
You can't stretch your arms out.
[Jumping is prohibited!]
[Wait a minute...]
[The structure seems strange...]
- No dancing singers yet? - Not yet.
You can't practice dancing because it's cramped.
The mirror had to be here.
You there, singer here, and one more person. At least three should practice here.
You can't do it like this.
That's why we're dancing from front to back.
[He gave a lame excuse because of his pride]
- We dance with depth. - Using distance I see.
I'll buy you a mirror. In exchange engrave "JYP" in the corner.
- Promise? - Promise.
I'm offended.
Isn't it better than you thought?
Yeah.
When I first started JYPE, I leased an office in the second floor that was 1/4 of this room.
It was twice the size of your dance room and there was one small room.
It's the same for everyone when they first start.
Seeing Hee-Yeol run this place...
...I became jealous as my instincts I've been disregarding were awakened.
Even I have that side to me. Why did I throw that away?
I want to create an agency like Antenna Music within JYPE.
But I wouldn't have thought of that if I didn't do KPOP STAR with you.
[The dream that I had forgotten was recovered through my friend]
[And then]
[YG appears!]
- Where is it? - It's over here.
[It isn't easy to find?]
[YG came to get Antenna Music!]
[I'm going to meet him now]
[Watch your head]
[A dark shadow approaches slowly]
Hey YG.
[Hi Hee-Yeol!]
Hey YG.
[Gulp]
I know.
[Strangely feels nervous welcoming a guest]
- This here is... - The best place here?
Be careful not to scratch it. That sofa is genuine leather.
This brings back memories I haven't felt in 20 years.
Just leave.
[It's fun teasing him]
Should I show you around?
Sure. I want to see the practice room.
We have everything we need.
You can record in here.
I know these things well because I built YGE.
I see you're interested in these things because you did it yourself.
This is where we record.
[YG looks around the recording studio first]
- This is good enough, no? - It's bigger than I thought.
It's because we have instruments.
And that's the control room.
The vocal booth is nice.
- It is? - Yeah.
The size is nice.
[But!]
[Hee-Yeol is hesitant to go in]
Something's strange as soon as you go in.
Don't go in! Don't go in!
Something's wrong inside. Think that you're practicing.
[He enters the problematic room!]
Don't you feel anything off?
Where's the practice room?
It's the size of our dressing room.
Let's see what's wrong.
Where would you put the mirror? Here or here?
Here. It has to be long.
That's why your choreography isn't good.
We dance front to back with depth and not side to side.
You have to do this over.
It's one or the other.
[Why these two...]
And the ceiling is too low.
I can't even jump.
It's hot in here.
You can't practice dancing here.
Let's say we're practicing.
[They're having fun teasing him]
You'll get bruises after one practice.
Get out!
- This is really... - I'm offended.
- The dance room is... - Put filming on hold!
Why are we meeting here?
[That's how the noisy tour ended]
[Getting down to business!]
[Deciding the details of the match]
Are you ready?
Mine are all excellent.
He got all the strong contestants. He swept them up like trawling.
You can start anytime.
All that's left is for JYP to get criticized.
They take credit if it goes well and blame me if it doesn't.
What about you YG?
I'm planning on their song choice. I have several secrets I can't disclose.
What is it? Just a hint.
What they sing here and at the Battle Audition could be different. We're hiding it.
What right will be given to the agency ranking first?
[They decide on what privilege the winning team gets!]
[JYP proposes something first]
The agency with the highest score can advance someone who placed second.
[One among those in second place can be sent to the TOP10]
[That's intense...]
Then this match is really important.
Are you confident?
I need to make a phone call.
We can't say we're confident because anyone can unleash their potential.
We can't dare say it.
They're getting ready right now but will panic if they hear this.
[At the same time]
[Wow]
[The warm-up match will be held in this little theater]
[Antenna Music team is seated]
[YG team is seated]
[JYP team is seated]
[Tension hangs in the air with the warm-up match ahead]
It's a time to test our abilities and find out the others' plans.
I now for sure that YG and JYP used their brains.
Our pride is on the line.
The contestants are representing each agency and the responsibility will be hundred times.
[The judges enter]
[Cheering to the rafters!]
I'm burdened feeling this atmosphere up close.
Today is the warm-up match for the Battle Audition.
Next week is the chilling Battle Audition.
All the contestants are here and it's a day to take the lead.
Taking the lead is important.
But the agency that takes first in today's warm-up match...
...from among the six that take second place in the Battle Audition...
...one can be advanced to TOP10.
If the representatives do well today, one of their team members can advance.
So today's match is really important.
We'll call our representatives.
I dare predict that we have the strongest representative.
From YGE...
...we have Jung Seung-Hwan.
[YG representative - Jung Seung-Hwan]
[The songs he sang take No. 1 on the charts and started a Jung Seung-Hwan sensation!]
We have the only person who can shake up Jung Seung-Hwan.
I selected Park Yoon-Ha as our representative.
[Her voice moves the heart and was never criticized!]
I didn't want to make this person our representative but I knew your plans would be like this.
So our representative is Lee Jin-Ah who came all the way writing her songs.
[The best singer-songwriter ever in an audition]
Let's have the representatives on stage.
[The three representatives enter]
They're all outstanding.
We finally get to see you three on stage.
I got scared when my name was called.
All I could do was sigh.
The responsibility to do well suddenly came to me.
I'm afraid just looking at you three.
What are we going to do? This is going to be intense!
[Who will be the victor of Season 4's biggest match?]
Let's hear their resolve before they begin.
- I don't think they prepared one. - So we make them say it.
We'll start with Lee Jin-Ah.
Since I'm representing Antenna Music, a company, I dressed appropriately.
[A sensible resolve!]
I'll do my best.
[Greatly pleased]
I didn't know she could make such jokes.
Of course! She's very charming.
I didn't expect that.
Next is Jung Seung-Hwan.
How well is he going to speak? He's No.1 on the charts.
- Don't give him any burden. - I really look forward to it.
I'll show something befitting the name of YG.
[Concise resolve!]
And Yoon-Ha?
I'll do my best on JYP's honor.
This is fun. Now show your specialties.
Now that they're here, let's decide who goes first.
Let's play rock-paper-scissors and the winner gets to decide.
[A game of rock-paper-scissors with their pride on the line]
Yoon-Ha, when do you want to go? I'll decide it for you.
- Third. - Okay.
[He has to win for her to go third]
What are you going to do if you lose?
I'm good at this since I was a kid.
[A fierce battle for their pride!]
[Please let me win...]
[JYP wins!]
[Did you see that?]
Ask me when you need anything.
Seung-Hwan, do you want to go first or second?
- Second. - Second?
I can beat You Hee-Yeol without even looking.
[Provoke]
[He's not looking!]
[Antenna Music wins!]
I guess I have to look.
[It's okay]
The other two return to your seats.
[The battle begins!]
[First is YG's representative Jung Seung-Hwan]
He's strong...
I know how he gets the emotion.
See if it's similar.
[Similar]
His left hand is like this.
You're right.
[He doesn't care and focuses according to his pace!]
He's a pro! He's not even listening.
Please be quiet before he sings.
He has to get the emotion. Once he does, it's over.
Don't even make breathing sounds.
I'm singing Kim Kwang-Seok's "Love Is Not Love Too Sick."
He's a musician I like and I really enjoy his songs.
I wanted to sing this song if I get the chance to sing before many people.
I wanted to do better than at any other time.
But I need to get rid of that to get close to the singer's emotion.
But I still have the desire to do well so I'm afraid if I do mess up...
[Love Is Not Love Too Sick - Kim Kwang-Seok]
Thank you.
Wow...
- Are you in the 12th grade? - I'm graduating this year.
How do you...
...get that emotion?
There's such depth to his emotions despite his age.
That's not an emotion a 12th grader would have.
It's an emotion of someone who had many worries and thoughts.
I'm lost.
Did you have many worries or think a lot since you were young?
Yes...I started to remember the worries I had since I was six.
I always lived with headaches.
Worries since he was six...
The many worries and thoughts since you were six served as a foundation for singing.
Thank you.
Tune, beats, and breathing can be taught but that can't be taught.
You had many thoughts and worries in life. That isn't something that can be taught.
I was surprised because JYP asked you the question I had.
- You just turned 20. - That's right.
It's amazing because that's not a sentiment a 20-year-old usually has.
What's your most recent worry?
Well, what I've been chasing after became unclear...
- ...I'm searching again. - That's a big problem.
YG doesn't like to consult such things.
He gets irritated, "Just have a drink." He has to be serious but he's that type.
I was worried that you're singing this but I was surprised after hearing it.
It's because his songs are composed of A-B sections and are monotone.
You have a great power to be able to get our attention with this song.
Maybe that's the reason why people want to hear your songs.
An advantage of his voice is that all generations can understand.
Even those in their 60s can identify with it. He covers such a wide range.
I think even the viewers might think which agency will fit him.
They could think of Antenna Music because of the serious attitude towards music.
Or JYP who writes songs and gayo well.
And I will be third. That's what I think.
But I think otherwise.
I have the desire too.
I fell for your charms as you were with me and I want to continue listening to you.
Good job.
I know that this isn't the song he'll be singing at the Battle Audition.
[Prick]
I know he hid the actual song he's singing.
Since JYP has such good feelings, he's not singing this at the Battle Audition.
But I was teasing like he can sing such songs as well.
- Good job. - Thank you.
[A tremendous performance from the start]
[The other two look nervous]
He's interesting.
There's more in him.
[That's right]
[The warm-up match is like the real thing. Who will be the final victor?]
Next is Lee Jin-Ah from Antenna Music.
She's singing her song "Letter." Feels like it's going to be good.
[Finished setting the keyboard]
[One, two, three! Go Lee Jin-Ah!]
What is it about?
It's about a person you miss.
"It used to be like this" kind of feeling.
[You Hee-Yeol has a meaningful look!]
This song shows her most normal self.
Our plan is to do this at the warm-up match...
...and then throw a counterpunch with a different song at the Battle Audition.
The song you're most comfortable with is a feint and you don't need to get a good commentary.
Don't get caught...
I went to the theater comfortably because it's a warm-up match.
After hearing of that privilege, I have to do well for Antenna Music to get it.
I was burdened.
[Can she receive a better praise than Jung Seung-Hwan?]
[Letter - original song]
The still letters still remain
They move my heart and eyes
The moments when you gently gave me flowers
I close my eyes briefly and think about it
Ah, I miss that love
Ah, I miss that person
The moments when you quietly held my hands
I close my eyes briefly and think about it
Ah, I miss that love
Ah, I miss that person
The still letters still remain
My heart and eyes
[The performance with the soft sentiment ended]
[What is her commentary?]
I once argued with You Hee-Yeol while giving a commentary, right?
It's when Hong Chanmi came out, right?
Is she here?
I said that it's ordinary and it'll be boring if every song is sung that way.
You Hee-Yeol said that there are people who like such music like Lucid Fall.
I give in to You Hee-Yeol as I thought about Lee Jin-Ah.
It means if Lee Jin-Ah held a concert, I can listen to 20-30 of her songs.
Our concerts are usually hip-hop and we go, "Put your hands up!"
If I go to Lee Jin-Ah's concert with someone I love and she sings "Letter"...
...I can reminisce my past when I used to write a letter.
When she wrote the song about a puppy, I can cry while listening to that.
The more I look at her, I can see her color clearly.
I don't know exactly what color it is but I want to know more about it.
- Good job. - Thank you.
[She was complimented by YG]
This song is very significant because...
...it wasn't musically amazing.
After eight words and sixteen words, I thought, "All I need to do is listen."
I turned off the switch in my head trying to find something musical.
All that remained was the voice and song.
The song is really good.
If you sing someone else's song, it could even be good.
I realized for the first time that it could be good even if it's not your song.
You're trying to give your song, right?
That's what you're aiming at, right?
I am curious how she'll sing my song.
[When JYP's song came up, he looks...]
If she can compose then she can arrange. If she does advance to TOP10...
Why are you smiling?
What's going on?
It'll be interesting if she arranges JYP's song because she sang only her songs.
It's not a bad idea to show off her arrangement skills.
[He looks as if he's caught]
When I said that it would be great if she arranges JYP's song...
...the corner of his mouth went up.
That means he has something.
It's because I have a smiling face.
[Why is he taken aback?]
I thought, "They sure have amazing abilities to know precisely."
I asked what song she enjoys and there was one by JYP.
I told her to change it according to her style and she brought it the very next day.
It was really good and I thought, "I see the song can change like this."
I said, "Let's keep this because we don't know what will happen."
And they started talking about it so I'm worried if I should change my plans.
I realized something important today.
It'll be good if she sings with just a mic without a piano and not her song.
Thank you.
[Even JYP complimented!]
I listened to a few of her songs during our training.
I want to listen to them all.
There's one interesting fact.
To some composers and musicians...
...the song they wrote when they were young with a pure sentiment became their best.
Then it becomes repetitive or even worse.
But you can see the times in her songs.
She wrote this like this and like this. It's not awkward and it grows.
She's one of the few musicians that can satisfy your intellectual curiosity for music.
- I enjoyed it. - Thank you.
[How will she rank?]
[Will Antenna Music get the privilege that the No. 1 agency can have?]
[The next stage is getting ready]
There's another thing.
When I heard her in person and saw what she did...
...she's better than we imagined. That's why I was amazed.
We would usually think, "Her technique is around here."
But she did better than what we saw.
I thought, "What is this?"
[The more you get to know her, the more amazing she is]
Our last representative of the warm-up match is JYP's representative Park Yoon-Ha!
[High five!]
Park Yoon-Ha, do well!
Was that Lily?
[Go Yoon-Ha!]
Yoon-Ha has a certain characteristic.
She does well when the person before her gets praised.
[What she has shown until now!]
[Will she get a better compliment?]
She's an interesting character.
She's singing Wheesung's "Can't You."
- Right? - Yes.
There's a reason why.
Can she sing R&B;? We wanted to confirm.
- Hey Hee-Yeol! Why can't I? - That's a good expression.
Can she or not?
- It's embarrassing. - It's time to confirm that.
I debuted Wheesung so this song contains precious memories.
But a woman, my favorite Park Yoon-Ha, is singing this so I'm really looking forward to it.
[But she doesn't look so bright...]
[The day songs were chosen for the warm-up match]
Want to try "Can't You"?
[She didn't think about it]
It's because your ad-libs were better than I thought.
I don't know this song...
[She doesn't know at all]
I never heard this song and I sang it for the first time on that spot.
But JYP told you to sing that?
Yes.
She's still young so I wanted her to hear and sing various genres.
I wanted to see how she'll sing an R&B; song that is different from what she enjoys.
It'll be a great help for her to sing such songs.
There's no burden if she doesn't do well because this is just a warm-up match.
I never heard her sing this.
- Really? - It's my first.
Do you want to do R&B;? She said yes and is here.
Really? He didn't hear it?
No.
I'm nervous.
She sang ballads in a pretty way but this song is different.
I can't imagine how she'll sing it.
We can avoid this genre if it isn't good so relax.
[He tries to make her relax but she looks more nervous than usual]
[Yoon-Ha!]
[Will the privilege go to JYP?]
[She must be really thirsty]
[How well did she practice a song she didn't know in a short period?]
[Can't You - Wheesung]
Thank you.
[Finished without a hitch]
[A warm applause!]
Can you ask me one thing?
Huh?
Can you say the title?
- Can't you? - No, you can't.
No and there's a reason why.
I think you're wasting your voice by singing R&B; songs.
There are many songs and genres that you can sing well and shine in.
There's no need for you to sing a man's song like "Can't You."
I'm really angry at JYP again watching this performance.
- I casted last time but... - He stole her.
I recall that face of his that I hate when he stole her.
I thought he's smart because he said he didn't hear this.
I felt that he was trying to assure us.
She wasn't really into the song so I thought this is a good plan.
- It's a feint. - I know.
[What's with his composed look?]
We were into it even though it was awkward on her.
That's right.
There's a request I would like to make that is sort of like a promise.
[What request?]
I want her to be a guest singer when I do release Toy's next album.
[She's offered to be a guest singer!]
It'll be great if she sings the melody I made.
[But]
Not only you but many well-known composers are thinking the same.
The same goes for JYP.
- It's a voice composers like. - Look at his expression!
Look at that expression. He's thinking about something else.
He feels good because it's going as he planned.
[What's his plan for the Battle Audition?]
Let's not criticize the coach because of the warm-up match.
What's important is the World Cup finals. You do various things in the warm-up match.
- Good job. - Thank you.
I hate him!
Good job and let's have the other two on stage.
[Which representative will take first?]
[Discussion is over!]
[Who will secure the privilege?]
The agency with the highest score gets a benefit in the next Battle Audition.
That agency gets priority in choosing one from the second place to go to TOP10.
[Who will get that privilege?]
[Finally the announcement!]
We'll announce the result of the warm-up match.
It's warm-up match and not the actual thing.
We'll start with third place.
It's okay Yoon-Ha.
Third place is Park Yoon-Ha.
[She put up a good fight with a song she practiced for the first time!]
We'll announce first place. First place goes to...
[Is it YG's representative who sang with a sincere emotion?]
[Or is it Antenna Music's representative who sang her own sentimental song?]
...Jung Seung-Hwan who sang Kim Kwang-Seok's song. Congratulations.
[It's Jung Seung-Hwan who was praised for his sincere emotion!]
[YG members are really happy]
[That's awesome!]
That will make Lee Jin-Ah second place. Good job.
Good job and now I have the priority to save one person and send to TOP10.
There's only a few days left. Practice really hard.
We look forward to a head-to-head battle.
Thank you everyone!
[The TOP10 are born next week!]
