Park Hyun-bin made the viewers’ shoulders move with a medley of hit songs such as ‘Only Trust Oppa’, ‘Shabang Shabang’, and ‘Gondre Mandre’.

Next, the first gong went to the soon-to-be couple Eun Ga-eun X Park Hyun-ho. They chose Lim Young-woong‘s ‘Now Trust Me’, and they looked shy and trembling as if they were rehearsing for their wedding scheduled for April. Appearing on stage like a handsome man and beautiful woman, they sang the melody while filling it with their faith and love for each other. A picture of the two appeared on the screen behind the stage as they harmonized while looking at each other’s faces. The soon-to-be couple‘s stage where they went down the virgin road created by the choir brought blessings from everyone.

Father-in-law Park Young-gyu X Joana took the second stage and sang Javier Solis’ ‘Maria Elena’. Park Young-gyu performed on stage with lots of love and affection for his daughter. Park Young-gyu‘s deep voice was complemented by his daughter Joana’s dance moves, making the song even more complete. Everyone‘s eyes were drawn to Park Young-gyu’s charming low-mid range voice and Joana‘s gestures that swayed like a gentle breeze. The father and daughter dancing together brought smiles to the faces of those watching.

Jo Myung-sik X Ali, the father and daughter, sang Im Jae-beom‘s ‘Emergency’ on the third stage. Ali, the hostess of ‘Immortal Songs’ and the holder of the most trophies, and his father slowly kissed and carefully sang each line. In particular, Ali’s father showed that he can move people with his raw vocals without any special techniques. Ali, who confessed to a difficult past with her father, eventually shed tears, but soon found a pattern and led the harmony. The hug between the father and daughter at the end of the stage brought tears to the eyes.

The Jo Myeong-sik X Ali father and daughter stopped the two wins of the prospective couple Eun Ga-eun X Park Hyeon-ho. Those who succeeded in winning once became the new owners of the winner‘s seat.

The three of them showed off their talents based on their stable singing ability. The sight of the brothers Lee Sang-ho and Lee Sang-min enjoying the stage from the audience caught the eye.

The father and daughter Jo Myung-sik and Ali received more votes than the Lee Sang-ho X Lee Sang-min X Kim Ja-yeon family, succeeding in their second consecutive win.

The father and daughter Woo Yeon-i and Marcus Kang were chosen as the main characters of the last stage. The father and daughter, who selected Hye-eun-i‘s ‘Passion’, reinterpreted ‘Passion’ with a jazzy mood and a rock dance version arrangement.
