In particular, tension was heightened as six winners were automatically nominated for T4, and six losers were on the verge of elimination.

Trot competition, strategy is different!




Each team refined their power in a different way. Team Lee Chan-won ran a trot class, conducted quizzes, and strengthened the basics, and the team members quickly united and showed the aspect of 'Chanwon's desire'. On the other hand, Team Jang Min-ho visited Jang Min-ho's concert in person and learned the sense of the stage to enhance his sense of practice.

In the second round, where the full-fledged confrontation took place, trot goddess Hongja, EXID Solji, hit song maker Yoon Il-sang, and producer duo turned out to be comas (Kim Ji-hwan, Kim Kyung-beom) joined as judges, adding to the weight. In addition, the participants' enthusiasm reached its peak as news spread that they will participate in the production of T4's music, which will debut as trot singers in the future.

"Strong" The youngest contest from the first stage!




The first confrontation was a clash between the 'youngest'. Team Jang Minho's Han Jung-wan "I'll get rid of the youngest member of Team Lee Chan-won"" showed spirit, and against this, Team Lee Chan-won's Kim Jun-ho selected Yoon Soo-il's "Awkward Confession" and even performed colorful choreography and fencing performances. In response, Han Jung-wan showed the essence of trot sensibility by singing Seo Joo-kyung's 'Bench', but the victory went to Kim Jun-ho, who showed a more dynamic stage.

Trot competition with mixed skills and emotions

The second stage was a match between Tae Hang-ho and Dong-ho Kim of `Lee Chan-won's One Pick.' Tae Hang-ho gave a touching stage with Kim Yong-im's 'Life Like a Chocho', but Kim Dong-ho, dubbed the musical prince, chose Han Hye-jin's 'Brown Memories' to overwhelm the stage with a strong appeal and won 5:0 in a complete victory.




When Team Lee Chan-won won one after another, Team Jang Min-ho took out Super T with his lethal card. In response, Lee Chan-won also used Super T, resulting in an unexpected big match. The judges were also nervous as Choi Dae-chul and Hyun-woo, who showed outstanding skills in the first round, faced off. Yun Il-sang is expected to be genuine" expressed anticipation.

Emotional VS Competitive desire, Choi Dae-cheol and Hyun-woo clash

Choi Dae-cheol selected Gangjin's 'A glass of makgeolli' and sang '"A song that brings up father and son" with an emotional interpretation. It touched the hearts of viewers with its deep resonance and authentic singing. Hyun-woo, who chose to go second, was nervous watching Choi Dae-chul's stage, but he made the game even more interesting by doing his best to show the best stage until the end.

As such, 'Handsome Trot' is receiving a hot response for its increasingly fierce competition and unpredictable growth story of the cast. Expectations are rising for what kind of dramatic matches will unfold in the next round.
