CRAVITY Tears, Final Winner of ‘Road to Kingdom’ “I Wanted to Prove It”

Group CRAVITY has won the final game of Mnet‘s ‘Road to Kingdom’.

CRAVITY appeared on the final episode of ‘Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE’ (hereafter ‘Road to Kingdom’) that aired on the 7th and maintained their 1st place until the final competition, ultimately winning the championship.

Taeyoung, who appeared as the ace member of the final competition that day, decorated the live broadcast opening that day with a deadly solo dance using bandages.

CRAVITY, who started off in last place in the evaluation match’s Ace Battle and monopolized the 1st place in the team rankings for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd rounds and the 1st place in the 3rd round‘s Ace rankings, said, “We’ve written every story we could from 1st place to 7th place. We held that much venom and everyone became tight-knit with unity. It was good that we came out,” he said, expressing his determination.

In the cumulative pre-game scores and new song digital music scores that were revealed before the competition, Cravity showed their prowess by taking first place. Leader Serim said, “We’re happy that the stage we prepared so hard for received so much love, and I’m so grateful to our beloved Luvity (official fan club name).” Minhee said, “Thank you for listening to our songs to support Cravity. We will show you a stage that lives up to your expectations.”

Cravity performed the main competition stage with their new song, “HISTORIA,” which contains their ambition to write their own new history. Cravity’s powerful and well-made performance that conveys their emotions and narrative caught everyone’s attention. From the pair choreography that moved through various set spaces to the splendid group dance and dramatic development using sparkling jewel props, it provided a strong sense of immersion.

Cravity‘s main vocalist Woobin also showed off his sweet voice while decorating a special stage with the other team’s ‘vocal aces’ for the new song ‘CONTINUE’.

Cravity, who won the final result including the live broadcast final scores, said, ”I‘m proud of the members and I’m thankful. We worked really hard because we wanted to prove it. We‘re grateful that we could do such a great stage with such a great opportunity. I think we’re learning and gaining something more valuable than winning,“ and shed tears of emotion. They also said, ”Thank you so much, Luvity, and I love you. I think we won thanks to the people who always work hard by our side. He expressed his gratitude to fans, saying, “I want to be with Luvity for a long time in the future.”

CRAVITY, who has created legendary stages in each competition and has shined the reputation of a “performance powerhouse” regardless of genre, has proven their efforts and confidence with this victory without any surprises. CRAVITY will meet fans on stage at the “2025 Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE” concert to be held at the KSPO Dome (formerly Gymnastics Arena) in Olympic Park, Seoul on January 4th and 5th next year.
