(A battle of rivals, Self-producing Mission)
(They personally planned and staged the whole performance.)
(The legendary performances)
(The war of rivals isn't over yet.)
(The legendary performances will continue!)
(And...)
(what do his tears mean?)

(Vote now on Tmon.)
(The 2nd voting ends at 9am on December 27.)
It's a competition between the best singers.
It's a competition between female idol vocalists.
I will now invite two teams to the stage.
On the stage, come on.
- Let's do this. - Hello.
(They can't wait to see the competition.)
(It's a competition between Team Yellow and Team Green.)
(Ye Bin)
(Hee Jin, Lucky)
(Hye Yeon)
- Hello everyone. - Hello everyone.
- We are Green Light. - We are Green Light.
- Hello everyone. - Hello everyone.
- We are Baam. - We are Baam.
(Happy Birthday, Hye Yeon.)
NC.A and Hee Jin are...
- They are very similar. - very similar.
(NC.A versus Hee Jin of Good Day)
(Even though she has a small body, she has a strong voice.)
(Hee Jin has an emotional voice.)
When they are in the same team...
- They should be competing. - Right.
That's why they should not be in the same team.
(Female Vocalists, Ha Yoon, Ye Bin, Ga Eul, Yu Jeong, NC.A, Hae Na,)
(Eun E, Lucky, and Min Hee...)
(versus Hye Yeon, Yeo Eun, Hee Jin, Ji Hoon, and Woohee)
It's time for Team Green's stage.
The Unit.
(The team has a combination of the best vocalists, NC.A,)
(Hae Na,)
(and Kang Min Hee.)
(KBS Human Resource Development)
(Warming up before the meeting)
(This is how well a trot singer can dance.)
- My gosh. - My goodness.
(Who is playing the piano?)
Hey. Excuse me.
I've heard this song on TV.
(This is how well an idol singer can play the piano.)
Look at her.
- Let's get back to our work. - Let's get back to our work.
Let's talk about the songs that each of us has in mind.
I thought about our team members' strength.
When we think of Team Yellow,
they put their vocal skills first.
Our strength is...
- Our tones. - We can talk about our tones.
We have wider range of vocal styles.
This is the reason that they put us together as a team.
(The vocalists who have a clear and refreshing voice are Yu Jeong,)
(Lucky,)
(and Ye Bin.)
(And here is the vocalist who has the best voice.)
(She is the future queen of trot, Seol Ha Yoon.)
I think the reason that they put us together as a team is to see...
how our voices will work together.
They wanted to see it for themselves.
(I am amazed by their ideas.)
We all knew what other teams were up to.
But as we don't know what they are up to, I feel nervous.
(Gosh)
Where is Team Yellow?
They are right next to our room.
(She's stuck to the wall.)
Which song are they singing?
- They are preparing something cool. - Something cool.
I will turn my back.
(Something)
That's what I heard.
(Ye Bin of Dia brought a helpful information.)
- Hold on. Quiet. - Quiet.
(Let's go.)
(Sneaking)
(What are they singing?)
(I am so curious.)
(I am curious too.)
- I think... - Hey.
- Ji Hoon is playing the piano. - Ji Hoon is playing the piano.
I think the rest is singing.
I was so curious about Team Yellow.
When I heard something, I ran.
I listened to them.
Anyway, it's a competition against other team.
If I compare Team Yellow with ballads,
Team Green has...
a bit of cuteness compared to Team Yellow.
- We are girlish. - Yes. It will be also nice...
if we could show girlish side of us too.
- Yes. - I was thinking earlier that...
it's very important to choose the proper concept for vocalists.
- You are right. - I think we can sing a carol.
I got goose bumps.
(They started singing a carol together.)
(And I)
(Excited)
How about "Hug" by TVXQ?
(I want to be your bed)
(Baby)
We can rather sing this song.
(Singing)
- My gosh. Right. - That's the song.
(Singing)
What's the name of the song?
- "Love in the Ice". - "Love in the Ice".
- I loved this song. - I listened to this all the time.
It was so good when I was younger.
It was the best song when we were younger.
It was.
("Love in the Ice" has a beautiful harmonization.)
I loved the song.
The first part of the song and the harmonization...
create a perfect vibe.
"Love in the Ice"?
It was my first time hearing the song.
What are you doing?
- You're making a bad mistake. - What?
Who is left out?
- Hello. - It's Ha Yoon.
You forgot about Ha Yoon.
I am Ha Yoon.
Hello.
Are you all having fun?
- Hello. - What do I do?
Do you guys feel hot?
There should be a kick.
Hello.
- I am Ha Yoon. - I am Ha Yoon.
Nice to meet you all.
(Ha Yoon makes the younger members happy.)
I am relaxing my throat.
Let's all relax our throat like...
- Ha Yoon. - Let's do it.
Everyone, hello.
- I am Seol Ha Yoon. - I am Seol Ha Yoon.
(They begin practicing.)
Shall we divide the parts roughly?
(Eun E of S.F.T tries first.)
(Yu Jeong of Laboum tries.)
(Ye Bin of DIA tries.)
- You are so good. - Amazing.
She's good.
(Practice until dawn)
Lucky.
(Sleeping)
(Lucky, Lucky.)
She never wakes up.
Come and have a look.
(We have to take a photo.)
Lucky.
(Why did they burst out laughing?)
(Since she is so tired, she sleeps with her eyes open.)
Lucky.
(Snoring)
(Laughing)
She is so cute.
(Thanks to the youngest member, they don't feel tired anymore.)
(Sleepy)
She doesn’t know anything at all.
This show is about Lucky's top of her head.
If you look at my hair part...
- Dirty. - I have soft hair.
NC.A, show us your head.
First, we need some base here.
It's a bit uneven.
It's okay. It can be uneven.
Ha Yoon, show us your hair part.
(Welcome)
This is my awesome face.
(I will smell your hair.)
What are you doing?
(She is surprised.)
How does my head smell?
(We will always end the video...)
(with our favorite pose.)
(Lucky's top of her head show will continue next time.)
Bye.
We have to discuss how we will...
do our presentation.
I've written some stuff down.
We can just put key words only.
And we can do our presentations about those key words.
- Gosh. - Amazing.
- Amazing. - It's so useful.
(They are surprised by Lucky's professional skills.)
- That's good enough. - She is talented.
- Like this. - This is amazing.
This is unbelievable.
I think we are the only ones who prepare our presentations like this.
Have you ever made Power Points before?
When I was in the elementary school,
I went to extra classes after school.
I attended computer classes.
They were so surprised seeing me making Power Points.
I felt so great.
Yes. I did it!
(Team Yellow and Team Green are gathered for Interim Evaluation.)
(Who will be checking on those vocalists?)
- Hello. - Hello.
(Jo Hyun Ah)
- Hello. - Hello.
I heard that you guys have presentations to do.
- Let's do it. - Okay.
Hello. This is worldwide show, The Unit.
Their presentation looks so professional.
The title of the song is "Love in the Ice".
We focused on winter and snow.
To bring out the feeling of winter,
we are thinking of putting white trees on the stage.
To avoid giving off a cold vibe,
we thought about adding in bright lights.
Let me explain about the outfits.
We plan to wear white dresses or skirts.
Shall we take a look at the photo first?
Okay.
(They are impressed at her smooth presentation skill.)
- She's so good. - You're doing so well!
I'll buy it!
Don't you think that this fits perfectly with our team concept?
- You thought this through. - We did.
Well, this is the end of our presentation.
(Thank you! Lucky made the last page herself.)
- This was for Green Light! - My gosh.
- Thank you. - This was for Green Light!
(She checks their singing right away.)
It was silent for five seconds.
I thought a ghost was passing by.
I am not so sure if this is...
a good song for you.
Why do I feel like...
there's no balance among everyone's parts?
Starting that moment, I was so nervous. I was scared too.
I thought if this wasn't a good song for us.
I thought we might lose.
What she said is kind of bothering me.
She told us that she didn't think it was a good song of us.
It was the first thing she said after hearing us.
It's the same with the audience that...
they will only see us once.
I thought that perhaps, many of the audience might think the same.
The thought that we might need another song crossed my mind.
It's hard. I thought that being part of the dancers would be the hardest,
but being part of the vocalists is the hardest.
There are so many things we must decide ourselves.
(They go back to square one by choosing another song.)
- My stomach hurts. - Where should we...
- Did you take the medicine? - Yes.
I guess it hasn't kicked in yet.
- What should I do? It hurts a lot. - Ji Won?
- You got the cold sweats. - I'm about to have a panic attack.
- Ha Yoon. - What's going on?
She has a bad stomachache.
- What should we do? - What should we do?
- What's wrong? - Did she take the medicine?
- What should we do? - What are we going to do?
She's breaking out in a cold sweat.
It still hurts even after she took the medicine.
What should we do?
(She has shortness of breath. It looks it's quite serious.)
- Hold on. - Oh, no. What should we do?
(Ha Yoon collapses in the end.)
- Hold on a second. - What should we do?
It's all right. Nothing happened.
- You'll be okay. - You're all right.
Gosh, is it the same, warm hand that held mine a while ago?
Where did it go?
Are you Ms. Seol Ha Yoon?
Seol Ha Yoon!
(The girls try to calm Ha Yoon down.)
- Excuse me. Let us through. - You'll be fine.
(She is transported to the emergency room for recovery.)
She was on a diet and was stressed out from the show.
I think it must have been the pressure she felt from the show.
Poor Ha Yoon.
(They changed their song, and Ha Yoon is absent from the group.)
(Can they finish their performance well?)
("Last Dance" by Ga Eul, Min Hee, Lucky, Ha Yoon, NC.A,)
(Yu Jeong of Laboum, Ye Bin, Eun E, and Hae Na)
(Hae Na's high notes make their jaws drop.)
(Performers in the waiting room are moved by Team Green's performance.)
(They were so good.)
(Hae Na's great performance makes a member of her group cry.)
(Yu Jeong of Laboum)
(Hae Na of Matilda)
(Kang Min Hee)
(Ga Eul of S.I.S)
(Eun E of S.E.T)
(Seol Ha Yoon)
(Lucky of Good Day)
(Ye Bin of DIA)
(NC.A)
You're so pretty, NC.A!
We have Team Green and Team Yellow, but the latter has only five people.
(Team Yellow has the least number of performers.)
- I'm worried. - First off...
- It's not that. - This is what I told them.
To beat the moving performance,
I told them that they must sing...
an upbeat song well and put on a powerful performance.
Truthfully, you cannot overlook the atmosphere of the show.
- That's true. - MPs are important.
Moving performances. Why are you shortening them?
- Why do you do that? - Recently,
I've been hanging out with my nephews and nieces.
I sort of picked up on that.
Do you know the term, "MC"?
- What is that? - Mom's credit card.
I didn't know that. What about "FC"?
- Do you know "BC"? - What's "BC"?
Bus card.
- I didn't know that. Seriously. - Let's vote.
(I must hang out with my nephews and nieces this week too.)
I wanted to work with Hee Jin.
They did such a great job putting together our team. I like it.
The first place goes to the team...
(Team Green took 1st place in their last, Restart Mission.)
(Hee Jin was the main vocalist of Team Green.)
(Her singing ability impressed everyone.)
I wanted to make a team with Yeo Eun because...
she always does a fantastic job for every performance.
(She's a talented vocalist who proved herself on a music show.)
(Yeo Eun has a powerful voice and can reach the high notes.)
(How will the performance with two powerful singers sound like?)
(They've been training for 3 months. The room is filled with chatters.)
- I am Su Ji - I am Viva
- Let's do this! - Let's do this!
(They are bubbly.)
(They are playful.)
(This isn't on mute. This room is especially quiet.)
(Hye Yeon, the main vocalist of Bestie)
(Shin Ji Hoon)
(Woohee, the vocalist of Dalshabet)
The odd thing about our team is that...
when one of us feels down,
the rest of us sort of calm down too.
When people felt a little better,
they became overly excited.
And we become depressed together a bit later on.
We were just staying quiet.
We were not upset or anything. We were just staying quietly.
I am very hyper active.
But I get influenced by the environment.
That's why I feel very happy when others are happy.
When others are unhappy, I get very sad too.
(Blue)
(Since they are vocalists, they start singing with the piano.)
- It's hard to change the turns. - I agree.
It's hard to change everyone's turns.
(They sing any songs that they can think of.)
(It's their depressing time again.)
We should choose the right song.
But there aren't any songs that catch our ears.
It is very hard to choose a song.
(Their discussion on choosing a song continues.)
(I don't want to cry)
(This room is full of sadness.)
- Are we all feeling depressed now? - No.
I don't know how much time has passed.
(The team the next door finished choosing a song.)
It's so funny. We are so different from them.
- I am sad. - If we choose to sing a song...
with some performances,
we will look more energetic and positive.
I think so too.
How about we sing "Jackpot"?
"Jackpot"?
(I like it.)
("Jackpot" by Block B is an electro swing music.)
I like this song.
- I like the song. - We should go with this one.
Let's practice now.
We have to decide when we are happy.
Hurry.
IU's "The Red Shoes" has a symbolic meaning.
We also have to come up with a symbol.
- How about the trophy? - Trophy?
I asked them to prepare...
We were going to put piano accompaniment.
With that idea, we can just...
(She stands up.)
(She stood up.)
(Let's explain about her.)
(She always stays on the floor.)
(No matter the situation, she always sits on the floor.)
(Even when she dances, she is sitting in a chair.)
(She dances time to time.)
(She loves lying on the floor too.)
With that, we can just...
(She finally stood up.)
We come back like this.
Or we can just dance like dolls.
(What?)
Or we can just dance like dolls.
(A stiff doll)
Gosh, Yeo Eun.
(Laughing)
(Is it not like this?)
Let me just go back to my seat then.
(Let me just go back to my seat then.)
I always performed with sexy image.
That's all I have done.
I wanted to show different sides of me through The Unit.
I wanted to try so many different things too.
But I haven't sang any ballads.
People think of me...
as a sexy idol of Dalshabet.
I think it is a great opportunity to show people my singing skills too.
(Woohee of Dalshabet makes the dance moves easily.)
And bring your legs up when we sing this part.
We sing like this in this part.
(With Woohee's ideas, the dance moves are made.)
Woohee, could you show me the part...
where we walk?
Walk with your hips out...
with your shoulders too.
Like this.
(She is teaching sexy dance moves.)
(Sexy)
We could do something like this.
I told Ji Hoon to dance like this.
(She shows off her sexy side.)
I didn't mean to teach her that.
The dance moves look different when you dance.
(Woohee's lesson continued the whole night.)
(Interim evaluation of self producing)
- Let's go. - Okay.
The song that we chose is...
called "Jackpot".
The reason we chose the song is...
- a twist. - It is a twist.
I made a team with vocalists.
And you guys chose to sing a hiphop song.
A homeless guy spends his entire money...
on the most expensive suit and wear the suit.
And with the suit, he gains confidence back.
In the end, he becomes a millionaire.
Our Team Yellow think of...
The Unit as our most expensive suits we can buy.
And we will make the jackpot on the stage.
That's why we chose the song.
You are so good at telling the story.
The props we are going to use are...
Are Chi Yeul and Rain...
your props?
(Do you need us?)
The prop we are going to use is...
the trophy.
It means we want to be acknowledged by many audiences.
Since we do not own many trophies,
we were thinking of borrowing a few from Rain.
He has so many trophies.
We will make sure to win the trophies.
- Let's do this. - Let's do this.
(Team Yellow's jackpot is the trophy.)
I can't wait to see your performance.
(It's like a musical.)
(Yeo Eun of Melody Day)
(Hye Yeon of Bestie)
(Amazing)
- They are so good. - They are good.
How can you guys sing with such amazing voices?
I am amazed.
- Great. - Exactly.
(Shaking her head)
When I heard them practicing,
they did not practice that song.
But they were good.
I felt a little threatened.
Actually, there is something else.
When we heard that the interim evaluation will be with Team Green,
we decided quickly that...
we won't show more.
- Hello. - Hello.
(Before the interim evaluation, they met Team Green.)
I think we are doing the interim evaluation with them.
- We are doing it together. - Are we?
We gave us signs with our eyes straight away.
We were saying "Let's not show them."
We talked to each other with our eyes.
What is it?
We will sing Rain's "La Song".
(The song that you know)
(How are they going to sing the song?)
How about we add his song a little?
(It was Hee Jin of Good Day's idea.)
- In the middle or at the end? - Let's try to add it.
- I like it. - Let's add that too.
- It will be fun. - Let's do that too.
We can sing the song.
(They try singing it.)
(The combination of "Jackpot" and "La Song" sounds perfect.)
It's good.
(Everyone loves her idea.)
There is another twist.
What are you?
(Team Yellow did not take a rest for the competition.)
(Will Team Yellow be able to hit the jackpot on the stage?)
- We are the first, baam. - We are the first, baam.
Baam Baam.
Let's do this.
(Team Yellow goes on the stage.)
("Jackpot" by Ji Hoon, Yeo Eun, Woohee, Hye Yeon, and Hee Jin)
(This is exciting.)
- Let's sing together. - Let's sing together.
(He laughs at unexpected moment.)
- Let's sing together. - Let's sing together.
(Shin Ji Hoon)
(Yeo Eun of Melody Day)
(Hye Yeon of Bestie)
(Woohee of Dalshabet)
(Hee Jin of Good Day)
(Hee Jin)
(Super dance singer, Han Sol)
(Everyone in the waiting room claps their hands.)
They were amazing.
- Yeo Eun was so good. - She is so good.
- They were so good. - I hope our performance still...
- remains in your heart. - I hope you cried with us.
They did it so well.
I was so surprised that got goose bumps.
Me too.
- Hee Jin of Good Day did... - Right.
an amazing job for the bridge.
- Yes. - She did it so well.
Yeo Eun knows...
when to sing louder.
They sang a little bit of my song in the middle.
That was very...
I am not complimenting them because of my song.
I just think it is important that...
they came up with an idea like that.
Let's reveal the results now.
(Team Yellow caught attention with their refreshing voices.)
(Team Green had powerful vocalists.)
(Team Green versus Team Yellow)
(Team Yellow wins.)
- They won. - Good job.
(Team Green feels disappointed.)
We did it.
(Team Yellow won the battle between the vocalists.)
(Team Yellow. The rank goes Hee Jin, Yeo Eun,)
(Woohee, Hye Yeon, and Shin Ji Hoon)
(Team Green. The rank goes NC.A, Hae Na, Ye bin,)
(Yu Jeong, Lucky, Min Hee, Ha Yoon, Eun E, and Ga Eul)
The next stage is...
a battle between the two teams for performances.
Please welcome the both teams.
(Team Red versus Team Black)
If we put the powerful dancer like Joo Hyun,
Mint, and Hyo Sun together, they will be a powerful team.
- They will be a strong team. - That's right.
They are so strong that they look like they are about to explode.
They will be a strong team.
What are you guilty for?
(They watch the idol singers' self-promotion videos.)
I am guilty for...
luring the guys with my charming eyes.
(They love it.)
I love it when there are...
- creative candidates. - I love it too.
- When given the same mission, - They can be eye-catching.
it is very important to be noticeable.
She already has all the strengths.
You are right.
Ji Won is very noticeable because of her perfect dance skills.
After listening to his opinion,
we can put the girls as a team who look beautiful when they dance.
We can do that.
(Female performance battle)
(Team Black)
It's here.
Welcome, guys.
I like the place.
(They are happy to be given the new mission.)
- It's big enough for us. - I like this place.
(Crowded)
We have so many on our team.
Shall we start by introducing ourselves?
(This is how they will introduce themselves.)
- I am Hyun Joo and 20 years old. - Okay.
Good.
I am Eui Jin and 22 years old.
I was out of the beat.
I am Eui Jin and 22 years old.
I am Hae In and 23 years old.
I am ZN and 24 years old.
I am Serri and 28 years old.
You are still young.
- You are still young. - You are still young.
(Cheer up.)
I am Ye Na and 18 years old.
- Ye Na. - She is 18 years old.
(Ye Na of G-reyish is 18 years old.)
(This is how much Ye Na loves to be caught on the cameras.)
(Let me look pretty on the cameras.)
(They always put pretty faces for the camera.)
(Heart pounding)
(Their cuteness is for bonus.)
(Heart pounding)
I think Team Red will...
put on a really powerful performance.
- I think so too. - We can do it too.
I think we can rather focus...
on the vibe or we should look fancy on the stage.
Shall we start our discussion?
Does any of you guys have any ideas for the mission?
- I don't. - I have one.
I thought of something like a high school musical.
It will be fun and nice.
- I will write that down for now. - Okay.
I also thought of the mission.
I think it is boring to show our cuteness and sexiness.
I think we should dance in an attractive way.
The musical, "Chicago"...
(It's a famous jail scene from the musical, "Chicago".)
I have another idea.
In the movie, "Step Up",
there are scenes which the people at the office dance...
as a flashmob.
(A flashmob scene in the movie, "Step Up 4")
And the first scene in the movie, "La La Land".
The scene where people dance in the car at one-take.
(The street flashmob scene from "La La Land")
I think the flashmob can be seen...
very fancy.
I thought Eui Jin would be more of an easy-going person.
But she was rather more meticulous.
I always wanted to try stage management.
I love putting things in order...
and putting ideas together.
(They are making up the dance moves for the introduction part.)
Shall we start our performance like this?
Show us.
This is good. Let's do this.
(Eui Jin adds more ideas to it.)
If we sing like this...
Like this?
Turn like this.
That was quick.
Let's do this.
(Curious)
We finished making the dance moves for the intro.
Have a look at this. This will be our intro.
- This will be our intro. - Already?
I like it.
I could see why they became singers.
I could see why people said they were talented dancers too.
Eui Jin is...
very good at making dance moves.
I was so thankful to be in the same team with her.
I felt relieved.
(They aren't dancing randomly. They are making the dance moves.)
How are we going to dance for this part?
(Thinking)
To dance with more impact,
we can dance like this together.
- It's not bad. - To draw people's attention,
we could dance like this.
We could turn our heads like this.
(Touching their legs down is an important move.)
(She is in love with her ideas.)
- From here... - Hae In love sexy dance moves.
She is so happy right now.
I am so happy that I could do whatever I want.
I am thinking of doing everything I can.
(Laughing)
Sit down like this with your arms straight.
1, 2, 3, 4.
Put your leg down like this.
One. And turn your head back.
It will look funny if you stand up like this.
When you do this, turn your hip to the side.
Imagine you were turning your hip to that side.
Stand up like this.
Shall we try it again? 5, 6, 7, 8.
1, 2, 3, 4.
Can you all dance to the music now? Shall we try it?
Yes.
(The intro part of the dance is finally done.)
(The important part of the dance)
(They concentrate on the key dance moves.)
Like this. 1, 2.
(They practiced the whole night.)
(Team Red and Black are gathered for interim evaluation.)
I can't wait to see this team's performance.
There are Na Ri, Hyo Sun,
Joo Hyun, and Anne in this team.
This team has talented dancers.
(Happy)
(Sad)
I thought, "Don't we have any talented dancers in our team?"
I felt a little sad.
(Team Black shows their dance moves.)
(Smiling)
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Is this dance move part of the original dance moves?
- We came up with this dance move. - We came up with it.
(Nervous)
It was so good.
- My goodness! - Really?
(Team Black is deeply moved.)
Who choreographed the dance?
Hae In did it.
This is the point. It catches people's eyes.
Hae In did a good job with the choreography.
The other members helped me a lot.
It was really good.
I was surprised to see something that I didn't expect at all.
I think you did a very good job.
Okay.
Make sure to enjoy your performance more.
When you dance,
you should think that you're the sexiest one in the world.
Glare at the audience.
Stare at them sharply and it's done.
There's nothing else you should do.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I'm bleeding at the nose.
I have a nosebleed.
- My gosh. - What? Is she bleeding at the nose?
- Are you all right? - Do you have some tissue?
We just drove away bad luck. We should go to the restroom.
- Come with me. This way. - Toilet. Toilet.
Here. Here.
- Bo Lim needs to pee too. - No way.
What was that?
- Gosh, what's wrong? - I don't know.
I was startled.
You startled me.
I was surprised too.
I was really surprised.
I'm not sick. I'm just tired.
Eui Jin has worked so hard.
- I'm all right. - So she had a nosebleed.
(She laughs bravely.)
I was just surprised.
Excuse me.
(Bright)
We shouldn't laugh that much.
I was going to close your nostril using my finger.
When I'm tired,
I often have a nosebleed while blowing my nose.
But it was my first time to bleed at the nose just standing still.
I was a little embarrassed, but it was funny.
What situation was that?
- Hyun Joo, are you the sexy part? - Yes.
You keep smiling, but you have kind of relaxed eyes.
- Look. She's sexy. - I know. That's what I'm saying.
You should surprise people this time.
- Why are you blushing? - She's cute.
Your face is all red.
She's blushing now.
What if her face turns red while she dances?
(It's hot.)
(Hyun Joo is cute and cheerful.)
My mom said I could be sexy.
She said "people can be sexy."
But I'm worried. I want to call Mom right now.
Lie down this way.
(Park Ji Won and Hae In are working on the choreography.)
- Double eyelid? - Go this way...
(Should I try?)
Do it again.
- It is hard to follow. - Watch your head...
(Flopping)
I know how it feels.
(I don't know anything about sexy.)
I finally know how it feels.
My knees hurt.
(Embarrassed)
Move your chest more.
More. A little more.
More!
(Practicing hard)
(My arms hurt.)
I was so embarrassed.
(Would this cute girl be sexy?)
(Performance teams use pre-recorded files.)
("Problem" by Dan A, Park Ji Won, Serri, Ye Na, Eui Jin, Lee Bo Lim,)
(Hyun Joo, ZN, and Hae In)
We're good at this.
(Queen Eui Jin)
(Dan A of Matilda)
(ZN of Laboum)
(Lee Bo Rim)
(Hae In of Laboum)

(Park Ji Won)

(Lee Hyun Joo of April)
(Eui Jin of Sonamoo)
I have great expectations for Team Red.
- I scolded them a lot. - I see.
I gave them a lot of bitter-pill advice.
(Would Team Red fulfill Rain's expectations?)
(Shortly)
[VIU Ver] E09 (E17-E18) Idol Rebooting Project 'The Unit' -= Ruo Xi =-
(Episode 18 starts in 1 minute.)
I have great expectations for Team Red.
- I scolded them a lot. - I see.
I gave them a lot of bitter-pill advice.
(Team Red consists of...)
(Mint,)
(Viva of Good Day,)
(Hyo Sun of H.U.B,)
(and Na Ri of Wassup.)
(They're the heroines of "Crazy" who dominated the stage.)
(Mint, Viva of Good Day, Hyo Sun of H.U.B, and Na Ri of Wassup)
They're powerful and strong.
We're not just pretty. We're are more like cool.
- I didn't even imagine. - I didn't see this coming too.
(Lee Su Ji has shown cute and cheerful performances.)
Then there was your name. Oh my gosh.
We are friends. It's hard to believe, isn't it?
I look older than my age,
but she is...
(Hush)
Please look forward to seeing us together.
- Look forward to it. - Look forward to it.
(A loud and playful girl comes in.)
There are a lot.
Hello.
(She's a cheerful girl, Anne.)
(She keeps eye contact with the camera.)
(She even makes a funny face.)
(Sometimes she laughs alone.)
(I'm a fool. It's okay.)
(She's so excited that she can't stay still.)
(How would the charismatic and feminine girls perform in harmony?)
Let's share the opinions about the performance.
(They look at one another trying to read each other's thought.)
I've never produced a song.
The agency always did that job for me.
We have just copied...
the original songs so far,
but we have to arrange it on our own this time.
So I didn't know what to do.
(Na Ri shows "Run the World" by Beyonce.)
This is the highlight. They're duplicated.
(It's powerful and sexy.)
I think arranging...
"Run the World" is not enough.
I think it won't make a strong impact.
- Do you want to change the song? - Well...
Rather than sing that song,
it would be more impactful...
to sing one of the BTS songs no matter what.
- And have the new theme? - Yes.
I think it would be more helpful to our team.
I don't know. It doesn't seem to be attractive.
We should try our best now.
Raise your hand if you're good at copying dances.
Everyone is good, right?
- Are we copying dances? - I...
- What? - Are we copying dances?
Don't we have to create all the choreography?
We have to create it for the 50 seconds,
but we don't have to for the rest of it.
I thought we have to create all of it.
I will...
let you know the choreography tomorrow.
(The next day)
Ta-da.
Shall we vacuum-clean first before we start?
Okay. Since it's morning.
- Look at the vacuum cleaners. - Let's clean up.
Did it click?
What are you doing?
(Team Red led by Hyo Sun starts to clean the practice room first.)
(They clean up every nook and corner,)
(so that they can practice in a speckless room.)
(They learned the choreography of "Run the World" perfectly.)
- Good job. - Thank you.
(Interim check)
Hello, everyone.
(How will Rain comment on that?)
I want to ask this first.
Aren't they supposed to create the choreography too?
But this is almost a cover.
It is just Beyonce's choreography.
It's because we should prepare for the occasions...
when some of us are eliminated.
Did you expect that some of you will be eliminated,
and made the choreography like that?
Well, I mean...
That's not exactly what I mean.
The dance performed by many people is so different...
from the one performed by smaller number of people.
Almost 70 to 80 percent of the dance I saw was...
Beyonce's original choreography.
I'm a little disappointed in you.
In fact, I had high expectations about Team Red.
But you may get unexpected result now.
Your performance vanished from my memory,
but theirs still lingers in my heart.
It may sound cruel to you.
It'll hurt your pride a lot.
I'm doing this because I expected a lot from you.
But it was too obvious.
I almost cried indeed.
I felt so hot in my eyes and ears.
I think he said that because...
he had high expectations, and cared a lot about us.
We should decide what it should be like.
We have to choose the theme.
Let's decide on the theme.
(Pondering a lot)
What about a girl whose boyfriend stabbed her in the back?
- A story about betrayal? - Right. Sort of that story.
So she captivates men later,
- and take revenge. - Good.
- She was dumped. - It's like a drama.
She was upset...
because her boyfriend cheated on her.
Okay. Our theme is revenge.
- Great. - Yes.
We thought we needed a story in our performance.
We chose the theme of revenge,
and divided us into the roles of men and women.
There should be a leading male character.
The male character should be...
you, of course.
- You should do that. - Why don't you do that?
(It looked natural for Hyo Sun to take the role to them.)
One should be the beauty.
What about Su Ji for that role?
- That sounds great. - Good.
Oh, my gosh.
I was thinking of her too.
That is the most important character...
in our story of the song.
(Feeling pressure)
I thought it was a character that makes me feel pressure,
but they trusted me, and let me take that role.
so I will enjoy it.
(They start to practice again.)
The secret weapon of our team is...
the story of the performance.
The story is well-plotted,
so I think that is the factor...
that makes the audience more interested.
I hope everyone cannot help but acknowledge...
our performance.
- Go, Team Red. - Go.
(Go, Team Red.)
(The Performance Team uses pre-recordings.)
("Partition" and "Run the World" by Na Ri, Mint, Viva, Anne,)
(Lee Su Ji, Lee Joo Hyun, and Hyo Sun)
They directed the act.
- She's an outcast. - There is a story.
- She is ostracized, right? - Yes.
Hyu Sun. Na Ri.
(Hyo Sun of H.U.B)
(Anne of S.I.S)
(Lee Su Ji)
(Viva of Good Day)
(Na Ri of Wassup)
(Lee Joo Hyun)
(Mint)
- Good job. - Good job.
Na Ri.
- Na Ri. - Great job.
I was worried that I might fail to put the clothes on you.
I was so worried.
- I was worried too. - Why are you crying?
Seriously.
Don't cry. Everyone did a great job.
- We'll win. - Thank you.
- We've been through a lot. Thanks. - Thank you.
I appreciate it.
- Don't cry. - Okay.
(The performances of the female teams are over.)
I'll talk about Team Red, first.
I want to compliment you a lot.
You changed many things I asked you to do during the interim evaluation.
So it was really good.
For example, those in hot pants represented girls,
and those in long pants represented boys.
That was a great plot.
I want to praise a lot for that.
Anyway, I want to appreciate the efforts from both of the teams.
Please show the result of a match between Team Black and Team Red.
(The result of women's performances)
(Team Black dominated the stage with their sensual and sexy beauty.)
(Team Red's performance was like a musical with a great plot.)
What will the result be?
(Which female team will be the winner?)
(337 for Team Black versus 298 for Team Red)
(Team Black led by Serri won.)
Team Black got 337 votes, and Team Red got 298 votes.
- So Team Black won. - Right.
Congratulations.
I'm still surprised.
I think we kind of turned the table,
so I'm so proud.
(The personal rank in Team Black goes Eui Jin, ZN, Lee Hyun Joo,)
(Lee Bo Lim, Hae In, Dan A, Park Ji Won, Ye Na, Serri.)
(The personal rank in Team Red goes Hyo Sun, Na Ri,)
(Lee Su Ji, Anne, Viva, Mint, Lee Joo Hyun.)
The members of the next team to perform...
are not only good-looking,
but also great vocalists.
The all-round idol singers who are good...
at everything gathered together.
(Kanto)
It's time for male idol singers' rap and vocals.
Here are the two teams that are rivals.
Please come on out to the stage.
Welcome.
(Jun of U-Kiss)
(Kanto)
Kanto places first, right?
I think he is the best among the male rappers...
and matchless now.
(Kanto's rap is very articulate.)
I can understand it easily.
Kanto is the best now, but I think someone should threaten him.
What about Jun?
I think Jun might do that.
(Jun of U-Kiss has his own swagger.)
(Male rappers and vocalists, Jung Ha, Jun Q, Dong Hyun,)
(Kanto, Lee Jung Ha, Marco, and Chan versus Gi Seok, Jung Ha,)
(Gun Woo, Casper, Jun, Rae Hwan, Hee Do, and Su Woong)
First, Su Woong of Team Orange.
Come on. Show your charms...
that will beat Team Blue.
Team Blue, if you run away now,
we'll forgive you.
- You'll forgive us? - Forgive us?
Forgive us, and we'll burn you up.
(We'll burn you up.)
(They have intense desire.)
We'll burn you up.
(They have intense desire.)
Team Blue's stage setting...
suits both their song...
and the members.
It was visually wonderful.
(Their stage setting looks harmonious.)
Team Blue, please come on up to the stage.
(I love you, Jun Q.)
(Team Blue will perform first.)
Don't worry about the rap. You have me.
(Don't worry about the rap. You have me.)
- My goodness. - I'll beat you.
All right.
I write my own rap.
I feel confident.
(Other than the most competent Kanto,)
(there is also Marco of HBY.)
(He is a rapper with extraordinary looks,)
(and reggae swagger.)
(Jun Q is a captivating rapper with a low voice.)
(He is so charismatic on stage.)
(Jung Ha's fashion style is eye-catching,)
(and he is so handsome.)
- Look over here. - Okay. I like it.
(Jung Ha is a good-looking rapper.)
(Unlike his looks, he plays jokes a lot.)
Hold on.
(He is funny, and ready for the variety shows.)
(That's cool.)
(Producers of variety shows should cast him soon.)
I'll do my best. Let's go.
I think this is a hip-hop group.
(There is a vocalist too.)
(Dong Hyun, a skillful lead vocalist with 7 years of experience)
- Let's decide the leader... - The leader?
Firstly, let's decide the leader...
- because it is very important... - Okay.
- to the team. - Right.
Actually, I wanted to be the leader in the last mission so badly.
(However,)
(his dream collapsed so easily.)
I wanted to be the leader so badly. I wanted to make a Team Jun Q.
I was confident that I would be the leader.
I'll recommend someone right away.
(He looks nervous.)
Dong Hyun's team has always placed first when he was a leader.
- Right. - Right.
- That makes me feel so pressured. - You don't need to.
Please raise your hand if you agree to that.
- I totally agree. - Since we can win.
I agree if we can place first.
- Okay. - I totally agree.
(He reluctantly agrees.)
(He failed again.)
- We decided right away. - He's the leader.
- Okay. - Great.
Thank you.
(Sighing)
I should have got that badge.
I even want to steal it from him.
- Vocalists, raise your hand. - Vocalists.
(Are there only 3 vocalists?)
There are four.
(There are 4 including the timid vocalist.)
- Raise it higher. - Are the rest...
all rappers?
There are only four vocalists then.
There are so many rappers here.
(There are many more rappers than vocalists in Team Blue.)
I thought there were too many rappers.
I was worried about how to balance it.
We need a strong beat that stands out too.
I think what to sing is the most crucial matter.
Considering the ratio of the vocalist and the rappers,
I thought of a song.
There is a song called "MIC Drop" by BTS.
I feel that style of a song...
will suit us very well.
There are vocals, but also plenty of rap in that song.
We can show our vocal skills too.
We can show our every side.
It might become a little boring though.
I feel like it can be a little awkward in fact.
Our strongest point is the fact that we have seven rappers.
I want to sing a wonderful hip-hop song...
with those rappers.
There is an old song I still remember.
It's "Swagga Like Us" by T.I.
(The great song by T.I., the king of southern hip-hop)
I think that style will be great.
Then vocalists will be helpless.
As I'm a vocalist,
I wanted to make the performance show great vocal skills.
But the rappers seem to have their own ideas.
You guys said that rappers write the rap, and that you can change...
the theme on your own too.
But once we choose a song,
vocalists can't help but follow the original theme.
I think it would be nice to decide a song for vocalists.
In that case, the rappers can adjust yourselves to the song.
What do you think about "Uptown Funk"?
- Beyonce sang that song... - I see.
- You're right. - in Super Bowl.
(Bruno Mars and Beyonce sang it together.)
(This is exciting.)
"Uptown Funk" will be great.
This is it. It's perfect.
- My gosh. - This is awesome.
This is the perfect song for us.
- I totally agree. - Me too.
I like it.
- This is the best. - It is.
Let's applaud.
(They chose "Uptown Funk".)
- All is up to us now. - Yes.
(The intense discussion is over.)
(Dong Hyun comes back to his room with the score.)
(I'll practice before I go to bed.)
(At the same time...)
(the rappers are still in the practice room.)
(What is going on?)
I suddenly started to think that "Uptown Funk"...
may end up just like "Her".
- You can say that again. - You're right.
That's why I was not satisfied.
We have many cool rappers in our team,
but I thought we were not taking advantage of that enough.
There is a song titled "Black Skinhead" by Kanye West.
I was wondering how it would be to go with that cool song.
We should appeal to Dong Hyun.
- Jun. - Right.
If we're to choose that song,
we have to come up with good reasons.
- We should sound reasonable. - Right.
Or shall we discuss the theme on our own now?
It has to be hip-hop since there are seven rappers.
Exactly.
(The rappers are discussing to persuade the others.)
- Bye. - Bye.
- Good night. - Good night.
(Training camp, day 2)
Should we try out what we discussed earlier?
- What is that? - It's something I came up with.
Yesterday, I spoke to a few of the guys.
We do have a lot of rappers.
I think a song like this will help with the synergy...
and accentuate our strong points.
It's a Kanye West song.
(The recommended song is "Black Skinhead" by Kanye West.)
We listened to it just for fun.
It seemed like a good song.
We can go full rap.
(What do you all think?)
I'm concerned that it might get boring.
It for certain won't be bland with rapping involved.
You think so?
It won't matter with all rappers, but we had vocalists too.
The uncertainty made it hard to settle on something.
The other team has everything all composed and arranged.
We keep switching...
and returning to the first song.
I felt like we were lost and in a dilemma.
(Rain and Jo Hyun Ah appear at the site.)
(Who did we see just now?)
(Team Blue struggles to pick a song.)
Hello.
- Gosh. Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hi, guys.
- Guys. - Yes?
- Take a seat. - All right.
(Feeling bewildered)
- Hey, Jung Ha. - Yes?
What are you doing right now? Try giving the presentation.
Sure. Here's the concept that we're going for.
We all have strong identities...
as individuals.
We decided to go with a gritty, dark, and masculine image.
- His tone of voice changed a bit. - Jung Ha?
He speaks with more assurance.
(Jung Ha has changed.)
Hey, Marco.
This is my personal opinion. How about changing your hairstyle?
I've honestly thought about it.
To work with our current concept,
I think I should put the dreadlocks down to the side.
Do you disagree?
(Rain is helpless in front Marco's smiling eyes.)
- What's he saying? - "Do you disagree?"
- Hey, Marco. - Yes?
Do you think you're good-looking?
I think you've got the looks.
Really.
- Thank you. - I think a switch to a more...
natural hairstyle will be quite a shocker.
People will think, "Gosh. That's Marco?"
(Looking serious)
Kanto, you should rather adopt the dreadlocks.
(Kanto should adopt the reggae-look?)
That's too big of a change.
(What do you think? Can they rock the looks?)
- You're rap and vocals, right? - Yes.
We're emphasizing on rap.
But you have Kanto.
I trust Kanto without a sliver of doubt.
(It's a huge compliment.)
- Thank you. - Be in charge of the rapping...
and put it together well.
Let's put our hands together.
- 1, 2, 3. Let's go. - Let's go.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thank you.
(Team Blue is encouraged by their visit.)
It seemed like he knew each of us individually.
It was very touching.
That's how I felt.
The whole day just felt like a long roller coaster ride.
The pressure and difficulty were driving me insane.
That's how I still kind of feel now.
We need to fill in the details now.
We have to just select something.
(They can no longer afford to delay choosing a song.)
- It's almost the same. - The intro begins...
with "Red Sun".
That's when the rapping will start.
- We can do "Bermuda Triangle". - We'll insert our song.
(It's a "Red Sun" mashup with "Bermuda Triangle".)
- Good idea. It's a great idea. - Isn't it perfect?
- I have the picture in my mind. - I have a good feeling.
(Blue Team finally makes their selection.)
I was happy to receive the self-production mission.
Instead being limited to a single concept,
we can work together to make something new.
I think it'll feel new and be very fun.
We'll assign sub-leaders,
Kanto for rapping and Chan for dancing.
(He's not only a great vocalist, but an equally great dancer.)
(Chan is the jack of all trades.)
I kept getting new ideas...
on which direction to take the song.
(Ever since the 1st meeting,)
(he kept getting new ideas.)
(Chan breathed new life into the "Red Sun" choreography.)
It's honestly the hardest task.
But I am so grateful to him for doing so well.
(Se Yong from the performance team came to observe.)
(Admiring)
- Chan, the choreography is amazing. - That's right.
(Chan is even acknowledged by Se Yong, an accomplished dancer.)
To be honest, Marco is most crucial to our group.
He's in charge of stage set design, outfits, hairstyles, and makeup.
(Marco is the stage and visuals director.)
It felt a bit of responsibility.
It's been a while to feel like this.
Impressive. It'll be impressive. We'll show you.
(Marco has gotten serious.)
You only have one shot at this.
I'm half worried and half full of expectations.
I thought over it a lot.
(They have a meeting with the professional stylist.)
(Marco approaches.)
I have something here.
Go on ahead.
- A cartoon? - It draws from animation concepts.
(Feeling flustered)
(He's dead serious.)
- It'll capture the mood. - I see.
(His meeting with them continues.)
(What will Team Blue end up wearing?)
Okay.
(That night)
(Marco shows up at the empty practice room.)
(He's busier than anyone in preparation for the presentation.)
(That's when Lee Jung Ha appears.)
- Did the others call it a night? - Yes.
- You're working alone? - Yes.
It's currently 6:20am.
1, 2, 3. Okay.
It'll feel like we've appeared in front of the camera.
That's how it'll feel. Okay.
If all my thoughts work out in practice,
then it'll be a great performance.
(Day of the progress evaluation)
- 9, 10... - That's right.
- and 11, 12... - What's up?
- Hello. - What is up?
Hello. Hello.
- Hello. - Sit down.
- There's no need to stand, sit. - Okay.
This room smells like men.
(We're sorry.)
Have any of you guys fought yet?
What's that?
There are no fights yet? No fist fights?
- We're nice. - It seems so.
I like your pens, man.
It's wi-fi.
(Wi-fi)
People like Casper always create good vibes.
I like friends like that.
- I like you too. - Okay.
(Oh goodness)
Can we begin then?
- The song that we chose is... - Okay?
a mashup between "Red Sun"...
and "Bermuda Triangle".
- A mash-up? - Yes.
The first lines have verses like, "A Rolex on my wrist, now boring"
or "Our song overtakes the streets"
But none of us own Rolexes.
I also doubt that any of our songs...
ever overtook a street.
By mashing the song with "Red Sun",
we want to make ourselves believe that we're...
the best on stage.
If we show viewers something real,
we'll be able to convince ourselves.
That's the kind of theme that...
we'd like to display.
That's a great idea.
(Feeling proud)
Have you thought about the outfits and set design?
That's being headed by Marco.
- Marco. - Hi.
What if everyone ends up with your hair?
- No? - We discussed that already.
(Team Blue presents on their song's organization.)
The first prop is a chandelier.
That looks too expensive.
(Marco sure knows how to break expectations.)
We need a real chandelier.
As long as it hangs in the middle of the stage,
even a plastic one will be fun.
If a big one isn't allowed, we'll take a few small ones.
Maybe about seven total?
It would be nice to include the wall...
in the back of the photo.
If not, then it's okay.
That's how it'll feel.
And pillars of fire.
(We need to include pillars of fire at least.)
- That's too much. - It's too strong.
That's the Super Bowl.
We won't even be visible.
You'll make a hole on the ceiling of KBS.
Then each of us...
will do this.
Then, one of us can pop out.
It's very elaborate.
But if you mess up,
it can seem messy.
If there's too much, people might get confused.
It can get messy, so people can lose focus.
It doesn't have to continue through.
Can we see...
each of your parts?
(Kanto, Team Blue's reputable rapper)
(Jun Q and Jung Ha, Team Blue's baritones.)
(Marco, the rapper with a personality)
(Team Orange is nervous about Team Blue's lineup.)
(Expecting)
(The first to jump into the evaluation is Jung Ha.)
I have four short verses.
(Feeling nervous)
They have to hit home if they're short.
Jun Q.
(It's Jun Q and his baritone voice.)
You're not as loud as the clamor of my heart
Are words like that ever used in daily speech?
I don't think it's ever used that way.
The rappers want to give off a whole different vibe.
I'm not sure how this will all turn out in the end.
(Team Blue's rappers received harsh criticism from San E.)
(They practice again with Kanto taking the lead.)
(Will they able to build a relatable song...)
(with impactful performance?)
Kanto, take a look over this for me.
(Jung Ha asks Kanto for advice.)
I think this is very good.
(He explains thoroughly.)
The flow here is a lot better than yesterday's.
(Jun Q ambitiously receives a lesson from Kanto as well.)
I'll begin my Gulliver's trip
It's a bit odd.
It's better to rap with higher notes.
I'm not sure if this part is all there.
It kind of halts everything at the front.
(The worrying continues...)
(along with practice.)
(Rapping reputations are on the line.)
(How will Team Blue perform?)
("Bermuda Triangle" and "Red Sun” by Dong Hyun, Marco, Lee Jung Ha,)
(Jun Q, Chan, and Kanto)
He's a handsome fellow.
(Dong Hyun)
(Lee Jung Ha)
(Kanto)
(Jun Q)
(Marco)
(Jung Ha)
(Chan)
I got hurt.
- What happened? - I couldn't see...
- the cape and slipped on it. - Good work, everyone.
- I fell. - Good work.
- We failed because of me. - It's okay.
(Lee Jung Ha fell.)
My ankle got twisted and I fell.
I got right back up dancing in surprise.
But I feel like I've marred a beautiful picture.
I'm so sorry. My heart just felt heavy.
- I'm sorry. - Really?
- What are you sorry about? - You did well.
Actually, I'm the first one.
Team Blue created an impressive stage set.
- That's right. - The outfits were on point too.
- There was a lot of eye candy. - Right.
Now, Team Orange will be performing.
What will their message be?
What is the emotion they're trying to express?
(Tears)
(What happened to them?)
(Team Orange, Jun, Hee Do, Ung Jae, Ki Seok, Rae Hwan, Gun Woo,)
(Jung Hoon, Se Jun, Su Woong, and Casper)
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
(Team Orange's first meeting.)
I'm Jun, U-Kiss' youngest member.
Nice to meet you.
(He raps...)
(and sings very well.)
(He's also a proficient winker.)
(He's very outgoing as well.)
(Su Woong top, Jun bottom)
(He acts like a baby in front of his seniors.)
Don't get between us.
- Hey, guess who? - Hello.
(He's even friendly with the competing team.)
(He's the friendliest guy in The Unit.)
Hi, I'm Su Woong from Boys Republic.
(His charisma is explosive.)
(I'll forgive you)
Hi, I'm Hee Do, B.I.G's rapper.
Hee Do.
(Hee Do's bassy voice is dead-low.)
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
- Is that your regular voice? - Yes, it's on the low side.
- It's so cool. - It is.
When Hee Do speaks, it feels like I'm in a cave.
Let's go over personal hopes.
I'd like to choose our song...
- by the end of tonight. - That would be the best.
First, I think the song is the most important.
There's nothing pre-selected.
We have to compose it ourselves.
Originally, I thought about an American song.
What's that song with the lyrics that go, "Let's Get It Started"?
It's Wiz Khalifa.
- "See You Again". - I see.
It's kind of situationally appropriate.
I'd rather stick to a Korean song.
From a viewer's perspective, something popular is better.
When I listen to the lyrics of an American song,
I can't really understand the meaning.
I'm not good at English.
(They try singing "See You Again".)
(Blanking out)
I'm not good at English.
I'm good at picking out what's popular.
I'm thinking about it...
from a mass-appeal standpoint.
(What will Su Woong choose instead?)
("Butterfly" by BTS)
- It's good. - It's cool.
I think this one's good.
- Should we do this? - Sure, why not?
Most of you liked it without a specific reason.
Yes, I just like it.
(This ballad song...)
(compares youth to a butterfly flying away.)
- Do you like it? - I like it a lot.
- Then, let's do it. - Sure, why not.
- It's good. - Sure.
I consider myself the voice of popularity.
(Jun leaves the practice room after choosing a song.)
Dong Myeong.
(He visits Team Yellow's practice room.)
(Creeping up)
Is this fully composed?
- I think so. - Already?
Jun Hyeok did it.
(He naturally gathers intelligence on the other teams.)
(Peeping in)
- Oh, hello. - Hi.
(This time, he visits Team Green.)
(Lee Gun is busy writing something down.)
(He naturally takes a seat next to him.)
(Quickly scanning)
I mistook him for a fellow team member.
Nice lyrics.
Hey, he saw it.
(Spying on Team Green, success)
They're like short tours.
Tours of the enemy base.
(Slightly opening the door)
(He even spies on Team Blue, their direct rival.)
Hey, be gone.
He's preparing with me.
(Ironclad defense)
(It's a failure.)
(The friendliest guy in the Unit is dangerous.)
(He sits down naturally next to the leader.)
If this part is okay,
then it'll fit.
- Want to just join our team? - Sure.
Give me this part.
We're actually preparing two songs.
Isn't that awesome?
- Really? - We're going to pick one.
(He gets uneasy over the leaking information.)
Do they keep sending you to spy on us?
- No. - Then, why are you here?
- Why are you coming? - Want to visit us?
They're sending you...
- to spy, right? - No, Casper is sleeping.
He's sleeping?
(Team Blue relaxes over the news.)
(Picking out a song was tiring.)
(After scouting out the enemy, he charts out the choreography.)
(He designs the bigger picture with water bottles.)
I didn't have to chart out the choreography.
But something made me feel anxious.
That's why I did it.
(He remains alone to plot out the positions.)
(However)
(A welcome friend visits.)
(Marco, from Team Blue, their rivals)
- What are you up to? - What are you doing?
How does this look?
- Isn't it impressive? - It is...
good job.
Okay.
Your words had zero enthusiasm.
You did so well.
So, is your team doing "Bermuda Triangle"?
(Jun asks Marco.)
(What?)
- Right? - Yes.
I've heard that you were doing something else too.
"Bermuda Triangle" and...
(Marco pauses.)
- "Red Sun". - Yes, "Red Sun".
It'll be like a remix.
(Singing)
(Rolling his tongue)
You're not doing that.
- We might. - You're doing "Red Sun".
- All right. Okay. - Your lies got caught.
You got caught red-handed.
Get out.
You kept visiting our room.
- You're here to spy on us, right? - Of course not.
(He came to get spied on.)
Our original intention for the bridge was to go up.
But I think we'll have to cut it down.
With 8 or more lines,
it'll feel like a verse.
(Lee Jung Ha's friend,)
(Ung Jae is...)
(good at playing the piano.)
(He's also a good rapper.)
(This talented fellow is even good at production.)
Each rapper will take four lines each.
You'll go in pairs. But here...
He was good at producing.
This mission suited him well. He had a lot of ideas.
He used a lot of difficult words too.
Is he an expert?
- Won't you improvise here? - I will.
Then, a rapper can just unleash here.
Ung Jae and I seem to be sharing the same idea...
regarding the direction of the song.
It's like something I had in mind.
His words fell right into the team's vision.
It's a task that I'm confident with.
Sure, I did want to show people what I can do.
However, 120 people must be able to relate.
This mission will cause people to be eliminated.
Some will stay.
Even if we can't continue on here,
I want to be able to see them again on stage in the future.
That's the message that I want this song to convey.
(Ung Jae rehearses the newly arranged version of "Butterfly".)
- That's amazing. - That's good.
- It's impressive. - It's nice and clean.
- It's just good. - I like it.
(Afterwards, the rappers get together to write lyrics.)
We have to let out our personal feelings a bit.
- It'll be good for everyone. - I agree.
We all came together here with the same dream.
I want to continue building on that idea.
Some will feel desperate.
There will be quite a few people.
I want a song that can help bring comfort to such fears.
- That's good. - That's the direction I'd prefer.
For me,
I wondered if to my company,
we were just a bunch of disposable cards.
Actually, from the title song of our album...
to all the accompanying tunes, I composed them all.
The album release got pushed again.
The future became more obscured.
I wondered if there would be another performance waiting after one ended.
That's how I felt.
That was so difficult for me.
I would compose the songs, but none of them would do well.
- I felt so sorry. - No, it's not that.
- This is such a tear-jerker. - It's so...
It hits more because the failure applies to me.
I'd see all these music programs on TV.
But it would feel so weird.
They're singers just like me.
But it felt like they had totally different careers.
To most people,
I was just that kid who sang decently...
(That kid who sings decently)
And acts here and there.
That's how most people might continue to see me.
But that's very unfortunate. I made my start as U-Kiss' Jun.
But even as U-Kiss' Jun,
I was relatively unknown.
If it wasn't for U-Kiss, I probably wouldn't be here now.
U-Kiss is essentially the most precious thing I have.
I have something kind of unrelated that was personally hard for me.
We debuted together...
and were active around the same time.
Our progress was stagnated.
But we could see the others progressing onwards.
That happened to me too.
I remembered my parents who...
supported me for five long years.
(After sharing personal stories)
Sure.
- What? - Why are you crying?
- I'm not crying. - You're crying.
- I'm not crying. - You looked like it.
- I'm not crying. - What's wrong?
- What's wrong? - But I think...
I can compose this well this time.
- Don't cry. - I'm not.
(The tear-jerkers get together to compose the rap lines.)
(They check over each other's lyrics.)
It's not bad.
I don't like hearing that.
I want to write it well. You know? Better?
- Hello, we are... - Hello, we are...
- Team Orange. - Team Orange.
The theme of our group is the word, "dream".
Are you acting out "Love Actually"?
(They present with a sketchbook.)
Please forgive the bad handwriting.
Overall, our objective is...
to present ourselves...
as group sprinting towards our dreams.
Our song is...
"Butterfly" by BTS.
We wanted to sketch ourselves...
on stage as butterflies waiting to fly...
as we wait eagerly for spring.
Our success will depend...
on whether or not our rappers...
will be able to convey our honesty on stage.
We'd like to put up...
the lyrics behind the stage...
- so viewers can read along. - That's very important.
We wanted to bring comfort and encouragement...
to the 126 friends struggling here with us.
We usually strive to write deep lyrics...
that are philosophical and revealing about life.
But lyrics that hit home naturally are...
most empathized with.
That makes the best rap.
I'm looking forward to this.
I think it'll be very fun.
We are currently on-route running to our dreams.
There were a lot of painful and exhausting moments along the way.
In my case, I'm a child trying not to lose his dream...
despite the pain,
a struggling child.
It's for my friends who are on the same path.
It's a message for everyone who dreams of a career in music.
It's basically what I want to tell myself right now.
Let's keep going without giving up.
I believe that everyone has a place where they can shine.
That opportunity comes for everyone.
At least here,
it's just a case of someone shining brighter than you.
You just happen to be less bright.
But I want...
to remind everyone that they're special too.
(I looked up at the ceiling far too long. Let's run to the end.)
("Butterfly" by Gun Woo, Ki Seok, Rae Hwan, Su Woong,)
(Ung Jae, Jun, Casper, and Hee Do)
(Su Woong of Boys Republic)
(Ung Jae of Imfact)
- My gosh, I just got goose bumps. - What just happened?
- They did well. - They were good.
(They can't stop feeling emotional even after lights are turned on.)
(Jun of U-Kiss has a hard time keeping his feelings in check.)
(He sheds tears as he doesn't want to leave the stage.)
(He can't hold his tears even behind the stage.)
My gosh. I can't stop crying.
- Why are you crying? - Jun, are you okay?
- Jun. - Don't cry, Jun.
- Why are you crying? - Break a leg.
- Great job. - Jun.
- Hey, Jun. - My gosh.
- I can't say anything. He's crying. - Me neither.
- Jun is crying. - My goodness.
(He's letting the older performers to comfort him.)
(On the other side of the stage...)
Stop crying, punk.
(These two crying performers are comforting each other.)
- Stop crying. - Why are you crying?
- Be quiet. Hey. - Who is it?
You're making us cry too.
One Junn was sitting like this.
On the front of the second floor,
one of the members in my group, One Junn, was sitting there.
He had his hands clasped together.
He gathered his hands to hope that I wouldn't make a mistake.
So I kept singing the song for One Junn.
Right now, One Junn and I...
share similar thoughts,
so I wanted to connect with him. That's why...
I looked at One Junn when I was singing.
(After the performance)
- Hello. - Hi.
- Great job. - Hello.
- Teams for rappers and vocalists. - Okay.
(It's time to reveal the result.)
This is what I'd like to know.
I saw that Jun cried a lot on the screen.
Why did you cry?
I wrote the lyrics as I thought about...
members of U-Kiss.
My gosh. I'm so sorry.
- No, no. Don't be nervous. - I'm sorry.
Men must not cry.
(Casper comforts him as Casper breaks the mood.)
You know what sadness means, right?
Yes, my name sounds similar.
My name sounds similar. "I'm extremely sad."
- "I'm extremely sad." - "I'm extremely sad."
(My gosh, Casper. You're unstoppable.)
- We'll reveal the standings now. - All right.
(The personal rank in Team Orange)
My gosh, Casper.
I felt it.
I saw you guys on the screen. Every one of you...
- are getting more good looking. - Right.
He kept saying you guys looked handsome.
Right, I said that.
When I saw Casper,
- I said he was handsome. - Really?
I always thought that you were handsome whenever I saw you.
- I mean it. I'm serious. - Thank you.
- He has good social skills. - Casper.
- Please reveal... - The second place.
- the second place. - Will it be Su Woong?
(The personal rank in Team Orange goes Jun, Su Woong, Casper,)
(Ung Jae, Rae Hwan, Hee Do, Gun Woo, and Gi Seok.)
- I think he should buy lotteries. - He said to buy lotteries.
Please reveal us the standings for Team Blue.
(Individual Standings, 7th place, Lee Jung Ha)
It's Lee Jung Ha.
(7th place of Team Blue, Lee Jung Ha)
Lee Jung Ha.
You know that you looked quite sloppy on stage, right?
Yes, I'm aware.
But then why didn't you practice?
I think I should have worked harder.
Looking sloppy on stage...
will not be tolerated anymore.
(6th place, Kanto, 5th place, Marco,)
(4th place, Jun Q, and 3rd place, Dong Hyun)
- Dong Hyun. - My gosh.
(3rd place, Dong Hyun)
Chan and Jung Ha remain.
- Jung Ha, - Yes?
which one do you wish takes first place?
Right now, I'm so shocked.
I was never ranked either 1st or 2nd place on the show.
Were you never in upper ranks?
I was mostly in lower ranks. I only got one Boot too.
I never realized how handsome you are.
- I was so surprised. - I was too.
- Thank you. - Your eyes.
(He's a good-looking rapper.)
Will it be Jung Ha or Chan?
(Which one will take the 1st place?)
(1st place, Jung Ha, 2nd place, Chan)
- My gosh! - Goodness.
(1st place, Jung Ha)
- Isn't this your first time? - Yes.
I've never won first place before.
First off, I'm very grateful.
I won the first place because everyone around me helped me a lot.
I think I benefited a lot from my colleagues.
- Okay. Congratulations. - Take your seat.
I wonder which team won...
the rival match.
Will it be Team Orange or Team Blue?
(Team Blue showed a cool and intense hip-hop performance.)
(Team Orange aroused the sincere feelings of the audience.)
(What will the final result be?)
(Team Orange, 291 votes Team Blue, 282 votes)
(Team Orange wins by 9 votes.)
- They won by nine votes. - Seriously.
To be honest, we had a hard time choosing the song.
I'm so relieved that a favorable result came out.
- Thank you, guys. I love you. - Go for it.
The third mission of The Unit was Self-producing Mission.
Every team has delivered their performances.
Seeing the condition you are in, everyone must sleep for three days.
- I completely agree. - You look beat.
They prepared some amazing performances.
I agree. Everyone worked so hard.
We are going to reveal the standings for each team...
which the team's pride is at stake.
Three performers with the highest votes in the winning team...
will not be exempted from the show.
Now, I will announce the winning team of Unit G.
(Team Black proceeded as they beat Team Red, their rival.)
The winning team will be Team Black.
I think my team will win this time.
(Team Orange owned Team Blue with their perfect performance.)
To be honest, I want it. I want to be exempted from getting cut.
We have to be first.
(Team Yellow came on top with explosive singing.)
Our team must be first.
We'll be sure to be exempted from disqualification.
In first place for Unit G...
is...
(Which Unit G team will take the winning glory?)
Team Orange.
(Team Oranges seizes victory in Unit G.)
(Euna Kim secures elimination immunity.)
(Semmi secures elimination immunity.)
(Som Yi secures elimination immunity.)
Now, it's the guys turn.
I can only say that it's a miracle.
In first place for Unit B...
(Team Yellow came on top with overflowing emotional singing.)
Today, we shall win.
I've been hoping for a win.
(Team Black seized the performance victory from Team Red.)
I think we're more than enough to take the win.
(Dreamy Team Orange overcame Team Blue in perfect harmony.)
Securing first place is the objective.
Our team must secure elimination exemption.
(Which team will secure elimination immunity?)
Team Yellow.
(Team Yellow seizes victory in Unit B.)
(Im Jun Hyeok secures elimination immunity.)
(Dong Myeong secures elimination immunity.)
(Rock Hyun secures elimination immunity.)
It's nice being in first place.
But I even earned immunity.
I felt like flying.
For the 1st time in my life, I'm in 1st place.
(Sung Jun, 37th place)
(Hee Do, 28th place)
(Han Gyul, 19th place)
(Ji Han Sol, 10th place)
