According to the production team of 'Legend of the Unknown', the first part of the finals will be aired on the upcoming 6th episode. This first round of the finals will feature the TOP 10 (Sungri, Lee Chang-min, Haru, Lee Dae-hwan, Jung Yeon-ho, Hwang Yoon-sung, Irune, Park Min-soo, Kim Tae-woong, Jang Han-byeol) presenting new songs in the 'Hit Song Mission'. Composed by top composers for the TOP 10, this mission will be completed through the participation of viewers and fans, maximizing each contestant's musical color and charm while serving as a crucial turning point to determine the final winner.
In anticipation of the finals, the production team is releasing videos of the TOP 10 contestants' hit song mission stages from the 4th to the 6th, raising the excitement. The newly unveiled stages of Lee Dae-hwan, Jang Han-byeol, and Hwang Yoon-sung have perfectly captured their solid characters and individuality developed since the first broadcast, heightening expectations.
First to take the stage in a sleek black suit, Lee Dae-hwan left a deep impression with his new song 'Beautiful Person'. His clean and deep voice over the grand prelude and beautiful melody, even in a one-minute video, proved why he deserves to rise from the 'real unknown' on the first floor to the TOP 10, drawing cheers from fans.
Jang Han-byeol, who filled the stage with his new song 'You Are My Star', touched the audience's hearts with his unique, stable, and appealing vocals. His clear and beautiful voice offered warm comfort and emotion to the weary public, once again proving his worth as a vocalist.
On the other hand, Hwang Yoon-sung's stage, the only dance song among the pre-released videos, stood out. Dressed in a dazzling pink outfit, Hwang Yoon-sung captivated the audience from the start and, along with dancers, presented the addictive new song 'Nalliburus', instantly reversing the atmosphere on site.
Notably, this 'Hit Song Mission' is conducted in a way that completes a true hit song through active viewer participation. As 'streaming counts' and 'new song stage views' during the main broadcast are directly reflected in the final results, the enthusiastic support of viewers and fans is expected to be a key variable in the mission. The remaining videos of the TOP 10 contestants, to be released on the 5th and 6th, are also expected to shake up the finals.
The intense first round of the finals featuring Sungri, Lee Chang-min, Haru, Lee Dae-hwan, Jung Yeon-ho, Hwang Yoon-sung, Irune, Park Min-soo, Kim Tae-woong, and Jang Han-byeol will be broadcast on the 11th episode of 'Legend of the Unknown' on the 6th at 9:10 PM as a 'Special Finals First Round' on MBN.
