The three won with the sexy, dandy, yet cute charm of 'Bold Woman.'
Next, Aki and Yuto, along with Park Seo-jin and Kim Sang-hee, held a duet big match in the 'Benefactor Competition.'

Byeol Sarang declared, "I came to receive filial piety," revealing a photo taken with Kim Da-hyun since elementary school, which brought laughter, and the two showcased perfect chemistry with 'D.D.D.' Jin Hae-seong and Shin Seung, after stating their identity as the laughter team, attempted a clumsy idol dance to 'Lucifer,' leading to Jin Hae-seong actually falling and causing a burst of laughter. The two conveyed the essence of traditional music with 'Gohyang Mujung,' but lost to Byeol Sarang and Kim Da-hyun.
Park Seo-jin confessed his passionate fan heart, saying, "When I came to 'Top Ten Show,' I bravely said that I really liked this person," and walked towards Lin to sing "You Are My Destiny~," leading to a showdown between the king and the queen. Lin, who was called out, smiled and said, "It's a competition, but it's good," while Park Seo-jin blushed shyly. Park Seo-jin showcased his powerful singing with 'Myungja!' but Lin secured victory with her divine voice in 'The Road Where Cosmos Blooms.'

When asked about her love story, Gong Moon-kyung replied, "I am a lifelong single," but was flustered when Seo Joo-kyung revealed, "I know you had a girlfriend before your debut." Gong Moon-kyung showcased her charm with 'Memory Bundle,' but lost to Jeon Yoo-jin, who expressed her poignant sensitivity with 'Just Being Able to Look.'
In the final 'Resolution Battle,' Hyo-seong, who had defeated Lim Young-woong, shouted, "Jin Hae-seong, come out!" creating tension.
