Enoch ranked first in popularity poll at Malaysian Guerrilla Concert
The MBN entertainment show 'Burning Trotman' spin-off show 'Burning Rose in Malaysia', which aired on the 11th, recorded the highest instantaneous rating of 5.8% and 5.2% nationwide according to Nielsen Korea. On this day's broadcast, the TOP7 performed a guerrilla concert with both feet, making everyone feel the power of a song that transcends gender, race, and borders to become one.
On the third day after arriving in Malaysia, the TOP7, who had some free time, enjoyed the leisurely scenery of Malaysia and tasted the breakfast enjoyed by locals. TOP7, who gathered again in full, accepted the mission to hold a 'Guerrilla Concert' and were amazed at the size of the concert hall, which could accommodate as many as 2,000 people. With only 5 hours left until the performance, TOP7 went into the city with banners and flyers in hand, amidst adverse conditions including sudden heavy rain.
Among them, Son Tae-jin suggested various promotional methods, such as suggesting to promote quickly by riding a rickshaw for tourists, putting up flyers on the front and back of the rickshaw, going to a juice shop to order juice, and getting permission to put up a banner on the outside wall of the store. Shin Seong, Park Min-soo, Kim Jung-yeon, and Min Soo-hyun also rode rickshaws and sang their songs and screamed at the top of their voices, and eventually jumped off the rickshaw and approached the fans directly, shouting “Free concert!” and doing everything they could to publicize the performance.
Finally, when it was time for the long-awaited performance, TOP7 went on stage wearing eye patches, and when they took off the eye patches, they found local fans gathered like a cloud in front of them, and they covered their mouths in disbelief, revealing their hearts in tears. TOP7 soothed the homesickness of local Korean residents by passionately singing the Korean traditional folk song 'Gangwon-do Arirang' as the opening song, and then Son Tae-jin and Enoch shook women's hearts by singing 'LOVE' in sweet voices that melted the eardrums.
Following 'Baby', in which Kim Jung-yeon's patented dance skills shined, Gong-hoon proved what it was like to break K-Trot with 'Impatiens Love', and Shin Seong, Park Min-soo, and Enoch came out again to perform 'When I Go to Naseong' and 'When I Go to Malacca'. He made people burst into laughter with his sense of changing the phrase. And the entire TOP7 gathered together to elicit a positive response from local fans with 'The Ugly Man', raising the excitement to the peak.
Son Tae-jin showed off his global charm with the famous song 'Stranger', which led to the 'rediscovery of Son Tae-jin' during the contest, and Enoch showed a hip dance of conversion to 'Is Love Like This', drawing cheers. Min Soo-hyun sang the even more special song 'Faraway Hometown' from a foreign country, and Shin Seong brought the scene together with 'Woman on the Beach' along with a delicate performance with a rose in his mouth. Taejin Son then sang ‘My Way’ with a heavy voice, drawing requests for an encore from the entire concert hall. Lastly, TOP7 sang 'Hongsi' passionately as a group, concluding a spectacular finale to the unbelievable guerrilla concert.
After the performance ended, the rose flower popularity vote was restarted following the previous rooftop performance, increasing tension. In particular, Enoch, who had been humiliated in last place in the last popular vote, saw that all seven baskets were evenly filled and said, “Anything is fine,” and made him kneel down and hold his belly button while bowing deeply. After counting the roses full of tension, Enoch wrote a surprising result, taking first place overall, and received applause from everyone as he flew the roses into the sky and conveyed his sincere words, "I feel like I'm going to have a good night's sleep."
The scene where the TOP7 ended their tiring three-day journey by enjoying the swimming pool was also revealed. After a group PT exercise spearheaded by Park Min-soo, a former teaching assistant, the TOP7 jumped into the water in earnest, drowning each other in the water and shooting water guns, giving vicarious satisfaction by showing them enjoying a real vacation. Additionally, under the judgment of Merit, an underwater cavalry battle broke out with Son Tae-jin - Park Min-soo, Shin Seong - Kim Jung-yeon, and Enoch - Min Soo-hyun as one team. After a merciless physical fight, Enoch and Min Soo-hyun won, bringing laughter.
On this day's broadcast, the undisclosed stage that TOP7 performed at the previous dinner show was revealed and attracted attention. Enoch went down to the audience with 'I Only Loved You' and delivered an interactive stage where he held each fan's hand, and Kim Jung-yeon also showed off his cool shouting singing style with 'Fool', drawing exclamations. Min Soo-hyun showed off her amazing voice with “Lover,” and Shin Seong ended the performance with “When Affection Blooms.” In addition, meaningful stages by members who boasted a blazing number of views were included, heightening the excitement of the scene.
