On this episode, the idols teamed up with their sunbaes to determine the best idol.
Six teams competed in total and they are as follows: Koo Jun Yup & Jun Jiyoon (4minute), Moon Hee Jun & Jay Park, Kan Mi Youn & G.O. (MBLAQ), Son Ho Young & Kyuhyun (Super Junior),DJ DOC & Hyorin (SISTAR), and Noise’s Hong Jong Koo & Huh Gak.
The contest’s theme was to cover the original idols’ hit tracks. A representative from the show said, “The original idols and idols of these days are coming together on stage. The old and new idol teams will perform to determine the best performance. People will get to see a variety of charms and see sides of the singers they have not seen before.”
Moon Hee Jun and Jay Park sang “Candy” as they pulled off the song’s famous and adorable choreography. Koo Jun Yup and Jun Jiyoon sang “Me (난)”, showing off their charisma in black suits and sunglasses.

Kan Mi Youn and G.O. put on a sexy stage as they sang Baby VOX’s “Killer” with a tango feel. Judging by their performance, one could tell that they practiced a lot. Meanwhile, DJ DOC and Hyorin sang “Love, I Still (사랑을 아직도 난)“. This was a song that could only be heard at DJ DOC concerts, so it was definitely a treat for everyone.

Son Ho Young and Kyuhyun sang “Lie“, both proving their amazing vocal abilities and receiving a very positive reaction from the audience. Finally, Huh Gak performed “You Wanted” with Hong Jong Koo.

Today’s episode also saw the implementation of a new judging system. The old setup had two singers compete against each other, with the audience voting on the more superior performance. The singer who gained the most votes would move onto the next round to face off against another contestant.
Instead of this method, the new modified rules will split the contestants into pairs; from these pairs, three winners will emerge and the audience must choose a grand winner from this ‘top 3′.
Check out the results of the 3 rounds before the final winner was announced below!
