Contrary to concerns that the current King of Active Singers is a cliched Trot Audition, the show is creating unexpected drama with each successive episode. The viewership rating, which started at 6%, continues to soar with each episode, and the cumulative number of official YouTube videos related to the reigning King of Active Singers has already exceeded 30 million, making it so beloved by the nation.
Spoiler included!
A surprising and unexpected twist unfolded this week as well. So, let’s start the review of what other dramas were written this week, King of Active Singers Episode 5.
2nd Match Rule
25 participants overcame the brutal death match of the first round of the finals and took the stage in the second round of the finals. The second round of the finals is ‘Team Mission’ . The five people with the highest scores as a result of the deathmatch become team leaders and must form teams of five. The five teams formed this way compete in a total of two rounds.
The first round is a mini-concert, 'With a Man'. They have to team up with the most popular male artists in each field to present a collaboration performance. And the second round is a 'Team leader battle'.
In each round, the celebrity judges can give a total of 220 points, 20 points per person, and the audience evaluation team can give a total of 180 points, 1 point per person, a total of 400 points, and the first and second points are added together.
As a result of the 1st and 2nd rounds, the 1st place team will all advance to the 3rd round of the finals, and all 2nd to 5th place teams will be candidates for release. However, Mask Girl , who was eliminated last week, appeared in the second round of the finals. How did this happen?
Before this review, let's dig into the whole incident.
Revived Mask Girl
The whole story
It's like a drama! Han Bom endured well until the end of the death match even though she was about to give birth. However, she seemed to have a lot of pressure while preparing for the team mission. Due to the nature of the team mission, strong performances and colorful dances are essential, but the team members purposely kept their movements to a minimum considering Han Bom's physical condition. Seeing such colleagues, she decided to leave voluntarily with tears in her eyes because she felt sorry that she could not perform properly on stage because of herself.
After discussing with the judges, the production team decided to select the masked girl as an additional successful candidate for the next round to replace Hanbom among those who failed in the first round, and that's how the masked girl came back to life from the brink.
It is said that Han Bom decided to get off on her own and gave birth to a child in two days. I think it's so fortunate that both the mother and the child look healthy.
An unusual atmosphere
But the atmosphere is unusual. Because, we remember that during the Miss Trot 2 contest, Yang Ji-eun, who was suddenly brought in as a pinch hitter due to Jin Dal-rae's voluntary withdrawal, make an amazing result. Yang Ji-eun, who was revived after being eliminated, created a drama that eventually led to her winning the final title of Miss Trot 2.
Attention is focusing on how the unexpected return of the masked girl will affect the game that determines the "Top 7".
Igija Sisters
Consisting of Ban Ga-hee, Hi Ryang, Shin Mi-rae, Kim So-yu, and a Mask Girl, the "Igiza Sisters (Victory Sister)" is a team of contestants with unique voices. Their male partner was none other than Enoch, a hot guy in the trot world who captivated women. The audience lost their minds with their sexy performances! There is no need to talk about the collaborative performances of those who captivated women. You should see them in person.

In addition to the flashy pole dance, Mask Girl also showed off a new style of voice and song that had never been shown before.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
The stage is further enriched by the addition of Ban Ga-hee & Hi Ryang's deep duet stage.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
However, with the evaluation, "Leader Ban Ga-hee's passion was lacking, and the chemistry with Mask Girl, who joined late after Han Bom's voluntary departure, was somewhat disappointing", 'Igija Sisters' got off to a poor start, securing 166 points from the celebrity judges.
007 Band Girl
'007 Band Girl', consisting of Duri, Kim Na-hee, Maria, Kim San-ha, and Jo Jung-min, formed the world's only trot band, as the team name suggests. Nahee Kim is the main vocalist, Duri is on drums, Jo Jungmin is on keyboard, Sanha Kim is on guitar, and Maria is on bass.
Unlike Duri and Cho Jung-min, who had originally played musical instruments, Maria, who was picking up a bass guitar for the first time in her life, seemed very embarrassed as she had to challenge herself not only with singing but also with bass and dancing. She is dissonant from the very beginning of her practice. Will this team be able to do well?
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
Their man was 'Hanhae', a hot guy in the hip-hop genre. A very exciting combination of Trot and Hip Hop, creating 'Hip Hop Trot'.
▼▼Enjoy the song▼▼
The 007 band girl, who tough-knocked down the men on stage by shouting, "My passion is still alive! My passion is still alive!" delighted the judges with a very colorful performance, contrary to concerns at the beginning of practice.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
007 Band Girl was a group of five people with very strong personalities, so it seemed like they wouldn't get along, but they were evaluated as showing perfect teamwork. They received a high score of 189 points.
Jade Bead Girls
The 'Jade Bead Girls', consisting of Ma Ijin, Kim Dahyun, Yoyomi, Yoo Minji , and LYn, practiced singing very smoothly under the direction of the queen of concerts, LYn.
However, LYn, who is participating in a survival audition for the first time, had never moved more than half a millimeter on stage when singing, as she had sung only quiet ballad songs for 23 years. Because she had never danced before, another difficulty was expected for the team. Will this team do well?
▼▼노래를 감상하세요▼▼
I think you just need to know that they are good at singing! Without YoYomi and Ma Ijin, it would have been a big deal. It was a stage with a lot of things to see because of them.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
But what is this? Why is Son Tae-jin there? Son Tae-jin, a hot guy in the vocal trot genre who was on the celebrity judging panel until last week, appeared as their man.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
When the performance ended, the audience evaluation team forgot that it was a competition and shouted for an encore. They even received rave reviews from the judges, who said, "It was perfect. It was the best stage ever in audition history". 'Jade Bead Girls' received 195 points from the celebrity evaluation panel and is currently ranked first.
Bibim Girls
Jeon Yu-jin , who became the team leader at a young age, wanted charismatic and cool sisters as team members, and as a result, she chose Park Hye-sin, Yoon Soo-hyun, Kim Ji-hyun, and Kang Hye-yeon.
However, no team is going smoothly. Kang Hye-yeon, who was in charge of the main dance part, suffered a rib injury while practicing her intense dance moves. By the day of the contest, she had not recovered and she ended up wearing a brace to her ribs, which caused her to struggle on stage.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
However, Kang Hye-yeon, wearing a protective guard, shows off her best performance even by bending her back.. Oh, wow, that must be painful..! And then the stage that thrilled everyone followed.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
The man of Bibim Girls was Kim Junsu , an idol in the Korean traditional music world . And team leader Jeon Yu-jin seemed to have a great sense of responsibility as a captain, and showed a passion we had never seen before.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
She took off her usual demure and pretty image and poured all her passion on stage to the point that her hair was in disarray.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
However, the judges' evaluation of the passionate 'Bibim Girls' performance was cold. The evaluation was that it was too distracting and noisy as both parties only made strong noises. The celebrity evaluation panel's score for 'Bibim Girls' was 171 points.
Hot Chili
'Hot Chili', which came together to show a stage as spicy and hot as chili sauce, is a team consisting of Kim Yang, Byulsarang, Ryu Won-jeong, Park Seong-yeon, and Second . Their man is the most popular national dance crew, 'EO DDAE’. 'Hot Chili' opens the stage with the best performance, a Nunchaku dance, that is in no way inferior to 'EO DDAE'.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
This is ‘Hot Chili’, who shows perfect Nunchaku fighting spirit even when her entire body is covered in bruises.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
The fantastic collaboration stage with ‘EO DDAE’ completely turned the audience upside down. This is ‘Hot Chili’, which drives the audience into a crucible of excitement without giving them any time to rest.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
Their explosive excitement and energy made Shim Soo-bong, a judge who is famous for his solemnity, get up. And the duet of Kim Yang and ByulSarang was praised by the judges as the most perfect song. Hot Chili came in second place with 190 points from a celebrity evaluation panel.
▼▼ Enjoy the song▼▼
This is how the 5th edition of the current King of Active Singers came to an end. The scores to date, for which the audience evaluation panel's scores have not been released, are as follows.
| Ranking | Team Name | Celebrity score |
| 1 | Jade Bead Girls | 195 |
