[Queendom Puzzle]

Five, four...

three, two, one.

You've got a new vote to cast for a combination.

Let's puzzle.

Puzzle.

[Queendom Puzzle]

Puzzle.

A puzzle requires you to match various pieces together.

- Please take good care of me. - Please take good care of me.

[They each met as different groups, but are now working as one]

- Girls, we're so cool! - We're cool!

- Let's enjoy it! - Let's go!

Showing ourselves off to many people as a new group...

Drop the beat!

Make some noise!

was very exciting.

The ultimate winning team

of "Charismatic," the 7 vs 7 team battle...

is Pick Team!

["Charismatic" Pick Team won 10,000 benefit points]

["Charismatic" MVP, Nana]

The ultimate winning team of "SNAP..."

is...

Drop Team!

["SNAP" Pick Team won 10,000 benefit points]

["SNAP" MVP, Hwiseo]

Our two MVPs can choose the songs they want, as well as the group.

The puzzle Nana and Hwiseo created is complete.

- Whoa! - Nice to meet you!

Shall we decide on a team name?

Ours was, "Shh! Yes, I'm a queen!"

That's so cute.

"Under the C," good job.

Make a full moon.

We're your "biceps."

That's cute.

♫ We're your biceps ♫

Depending on the group members,

a song we didn't even consider ended up being fantastic.

We could make it unexpectedly fun for the viewers.

And I think we could show our various colors,

so I was very happy.

- First place is... - Shh! Yes, I'm a queen!

It's our team!

We did so well!

We kept getting missions and we had to succeed.

And we kept doing well,

so I feel like we'll do well with any mission given to us.

- Good! - Good!

We can have fun with this, right, girls?

We can do this, right?

To Juri. Just sing for Juri.

All right.

I could feel myself developing.

Queendom Puzzle is a precious and meaningful time for us.

Come here, babies! Let's do a group hug before we go!

- Good job. - Good job, everyone.

- Exactly. - We did so well.

What should we do?

- Is everyone in the frame? - Yes.

One, two, three!

I was so happy with the group combination.

I was thankful for my members

and I was happy with my new memories.

Five members will be disqualified today.

I want to make it to semifinals.

I'm really worried because...

I've never once received a benefit.

Honestly, I just wish it wasn't me.

If I get disqualified, I lose my chance.

I want to perform at the semifinals.

I think I'd feel greatly regretful if I get dropped.

I really want to perform at semifinals.

I don't want to be disqualified.

[CJ ENM Studio]

We're the Avengers Team when it comes to both skills and visuals.

You can say we're a stable combination.

I felt like it's a good thing I joined Puzzle Team.

It was a threatening performance that could beat everyone else.

It was grounded confidence.

The result won't be so surprising.

Let's try for 5 consecutive wins.

We'll shock you once again at the semifinal.

[Puzzle Team]

[Nana] [Yeoreum, you're my type]

[Jihan] [Yeoreum, you're my type]

[Suyun]

We're on another level in regards to impact and explosiveness.

Didn't Queendom Team do a bit better?

I believed we shared the same destiny

and that it's not over until it's over.

It's a system where you win if you win big at the end.

I believe we can turn the tables.

We can no longer lose. We must win.

Have you completed the Semi-Final Puzzle, everyone?

Yes.

The Semi-Final Puzzle that you, the viewers, assembled yourself.

What will the best puzzle you imagined look like?

Let's take a look together.

[Day of the All-Rounder Battle Competition]

We have completed the five rounds of the All-Rounder Battle.

I have an important announcement for you.

She has an important announcement to make.

Three new songs for the Semi-Final.

Huh?

It's going to be a new song performance.

I will reveal it to you now.

What?

It's moving too fast!

Too fast!

We just finished performing "Web."

Oh my God.

The first song of the Semi-Final Battle

is "Puzzlin'" composed and written by Day6's Young K.

[Queendom Puzzle]

It's going to be popular.

Is it a cute song?

Wow. ["Puzzlin'": lyrics by Young K and music by GARDEN, Young K, and others]

I love it already. What now?

Love it already.

It's a pop song.

This is what it feels like.

I like it so much.

Wow.

So pretty.

It feels like Day6 quite a bit.

This is going to be so pretty.

- So cool. - Love it.

The song was so nice.

It's my style.

I thought the song was so charming.

I was drawn to it.

The second song of the Seminal is written and composed by iKON's Bobby.

Oh, really?

Is it rap?

It's "i DGA."

What does that mean?

Something like, "I don't"?

I bet it's super hip.

["i DGA": lyrics by Bobby, music by Bobby and The Proof]

It's difficult!

Wow.

This is Choreographer Choi Young Joon's style.

This is so cool.

The confidence.

So many killer parts.

It suits the Semi-Final stage.

It's going to be popular. I bet it'll be a fierce competition.

Wow.

A significant part of it was rap.

I better do everything I can before I leave Queendom Puzzle.

I would like to do "i DGA."

I want to do Bobby's song because I feel like

it'll go well with my vocal timbre.

The final song of the Semi-Final.

- The final song? - So curious.

"I Do" by the Composer Ryan Jhun.

It's a flower.

It's cute.

It's bright.

["I Do": lyrics and music by Ryan Jhun, Space Primates, and Others]

It feels fresh.

I like it.

Wow.

I like it a lot.

It sounds like a wedding song.

It's high-pitched.

[Hitting the high notes]

The vibes are so different with this one.

- I like the song. - It's so cute.

["I Do," a joyful and bright vibe]

- A heart! - So cute.

It must be a diamond ring.

So fresh.

As soon as I heard "I do,"

I knew it was my style.

I love songs with moods like that,

so I thought I'd be able to have fun.

There were many things about it that stood out.

The melody is very familiar.

I was most attracted to "I Do."

[The final viewers' vote on the combination for the Semi-Final groups]

[Assemble]

[Assemble an optimal configuration that works well with the new songs!]

[The final viewers' vote on the three Semi-Final songs complete!]

[After the All-Rounder Battle]

[Puzzle Studio] Hi,

We're all here, right?

The TV's here again today.

I feel like something will pop out of it.

Should we kidnap the TV?

- Drag it outside. - Good idea.

Hello, members.

Oh!

This Queendom Puzzle's battle will feature a new puzzle.

It's the long-awaited Semi-Final.

- Already? - We're almost there.

The viewers personally pieced together the puzzle of this battle, right?

I'm really curious about the combination.

Please tell me.

I'm really curious.

Each of you'll receive a card.

The songs the viewers puzzled together for you are written on the cards.

Please move according to what's written on the cards.

That means we don't know who we'll encounter.

We need to go to the location to find out?

Will we be separated?

HWISEO... [Heartbroken]

Today's combination

is not the final puzzle which will proceed to the semifinals.

Will the winning team get the right to choose again?

- There must be an MVP. - Is there a puzzler?

As explained during the previous battle, five people will be disqualified

in episode 7 on the day of the live broadcast.

Oh, that's right.

I think there will be recombination.

Five members out of the 26 members won't be able to perform live,

but please do your best until the end

with the puzzle the viewers carefully pieced together.

You need to practice when you might get dropped.

- That's right. - That's so sad.

I'll reveal the 26 members' semifinal puzzle now.

Oh my god!

Our fate will be...

Why am I getting so nervous?

I'll call the first members.

[Drumroll]

- Who is it? - KEI and BORA.

- Whoa! - KEI and BORA.

- Whoa, Unni! - It's us two.

Vocal queen. Those two really look like a team.

They might get the same song.

Doesn't this mean we're on the same team since we were called together?

[They're already happy, thinking they'll be on the same team.]

I'd like them to be separated.

They're too strong together.

[The combination who showcased powerful vocals during the All-rounder battle]

[Please let us meet again!] We want to be on the same team.

What's this?

- Oh... - Unni, what's yours?

What if I actually got that one? "I don't give a..."

[Is A part of `i DGA?`]

I want to do `PUZZLIN'` and `I Do.`

I'm a little worried I'll get `i DGA` as a surprise.

- I want to see a black KEI. - `i DGA?`

Would they be on the same team?

I feel like they're going to be separated.

[Like this...]

What's yours?

- I'm C. - Oh, really?

Will we be able to meet again?

We'll be able to meet again!

- What's this? - Oh, they're separated.

Do we follow those lines?

Let us each follow paths A and C.

Bye.

[They separate into paths A and C after saying their farewells.]

[There are two vehicles waiting for the members outside.]

I'm getting on vehicle A.

I'm the first one.

I've been assigned C.

[BORA is the first member of C.]

[KEI is the first member of A.]

I hope SOEUN will be here.

[Soeun and Kei displayed jokbal chemistry during the Remix battle]

[They parted ways during the All-rounder battle as Queendom Team and Puzzle Team]

[Will she be able to meet SOEUN again?]

Here are the next members.

MIRU and YUKI.

[What's MIRU and YUKI's song for the semifinal?]

One, two!

What's this?

[Where will they be sent to?]

Who will be the members to join me?

Who will I be teaming up with?

A, B, C?

- Shall we go? - Let's go.

[They're heading in the same direction?]

- You're A? - Yes.

I'm B!

[They're separated into A and B.]

Fighting!

Oh, she's here. Who is it?

Who are you?

[They face each other with a nervous heart.]

- Gosh, KAY! - It's MIRU!

- Awesome! I'm so glad. - I'm happy.

[YOOKI is moving to location B.]

Will I be able to go to the song I want?

I was very nervous.

[The first member of B is YOOKI] Whoa, I'm first.

I'm alone?

It's lonely.

I hope they'll be here soon.

All right. Next up are JIWON and YEONHEE.

The 00s are leaving together.

- Let's look. - Shall we?

- Let's keep it a secret. - Huh?

What the heck?

- You said you'll tell us- - Whoa, what's all this?

- On the count of three? - Let's go.

[They'll head to their destinations on the count of three.] One, two, three!

What the heck? Really?

What will happen with them?

I feel like they might be on the same team.

Right? I feel like they might be.

[Are YEONHEE and JIWON on the same team as they predicted?]

- What's this? - Hey!

We'll be separated? I thought we'll be together.

What do we do?

Bye.

Who do you think will be our next member?

YEONHEE?

Her image goes well with us.

I hope YEONHEE, who I did a performance with, would come.

- Take care. - What do I do?

Gosh, this is so nerve-racking. Wait.

- Who's our member? - Is she here?

Is she coming?

[Where did YEONHEE go?]

She came? Did she come?

Who is it?

Huh? No one's here.

Didn't four people depart already?

[Boisterous]

[A + JIWON]

What's this?

What song are we getting?

I have no idea. I can't even predict what song we will get.

Who's there?

[YEONHEE got on vehicle C, but there's no one?]

Didn't four people depart already?

What's this? Where's this place?

Tada!

Unni!

[Hugging out of joy]

Great!

We met again!

- BORA and YEONHEE? - Are they doing `PUZZLIN'?`

If we're doing `PUZZLIN'...`

FYE unni? Right?

- If we're `i DGA, ` we need HWISEO. - Yes, of course.

HWISEO! I want to be with HWISEO. [There's another person, YUKI, waiting for HWISEO.]

Please...

I request of you.

Next up are RIINA and HWISEO.

[H1-KEY members were called together.]

[YUKI from song B, BORA and YEONHEE from song C are all waiting for HWISEO.]

[Which song will she go to?]

[RIINA's card is A.]

[H1-KEY is faced with a divided road.]

[Are HWISEO and RIINA both song A?]

Good bye.

[HWISEO is song B.]

[HWISEO and RIINA are separated into songs A and B.]

Bye, bye. Take care.

- I'll see you at home. - See you later.

[RIINA heads to vehicle A.]

[HWISEO moves to location B.]

I'm going down to the basement alone like this.

Huh? Hello.

It's quite lonely.

It's lonely.

[Where did YUKI, the first one to come to location B, go?]

A lot of people departed...

but why am I here alone?

Which member do you want to team up with the most?

YUKI! But she departed, why isn't she here?

YUKI left, but she isn't here.

[Laughing]

It's YUKI!

It's YUKI!

[YUKI, whom HWISEO has been looking for, appears!]

[Before HWISEO came...]

I should hide them.

[She prepares a prank with enthusiasm.]

[YUKI hides in the practice room.]

I also said I want to team up with you.

[They're just so happy to be on the same team.]

It's RIINA!

[Boo-ya!]

[Members keep getting moved.]

[Members keep getting moved.]

They wrapped them up really well. I can't see anything.

It's a top secret security, huh?

[C + Elly]

Welcome!

A is the most popular one right now.

I'm so curious who's at A.

- Gosh, this is awesome. - It's SOOJIN!

[A + SOOJIN + JOOE and CHAERIN]

It's an all-new combination!

- Which song could it be? - I want to know right now.

We already have seven people.

We already have seven people?

[Each song's final member count is seven for the semifinals.]

Oh, seven people is the max, huh?

We already hit the max number, huh?

I didn't realize.

I think it'll be sad to see it go over the max.

Since we don't know who will get dropped.

- I feel like I'll be going with you. - Right?

[ZOA and JIWOO] I was right!

But don't you feel like we'll be on different teams?

That means we never got to team up!

You two never performed together? Whoa, that's true!

- That's true! - We just meet often at school.

[ZOA and JIWOO are happy to be together for once.]

All right. Let's go.

One, two, three!

Really?

- Really? Yes. What's this? - C?

- Really? - Wow. We're on the same team!

[JIWOO and ZOA are on the same team for the first time.]

[Jumping Jacks of joy] This is so nice!

Let's go, let's go!

Who'd be in this car?

- Welcome! - Wow!

- Welcome! - Gosh, hello!

[C + JIWOO and ZOA + NANA]

Wow! This so new!

- I can't tell what we're having here. - It's so new!

I didn't even imagine getting separated from WOOYEON.

[Nana who separated with Wooyeon is Song A]

[While members board the A and C cars]

What should we do?

They're not in the lockers, are they?

- Should I open it? - What if someone came earlier than you?

That would be incredible...

- Should we hide inside here? - Yes!

- Yes! - Let's hide in here.

[Vanish]

- Who will be waiting downstairs? - I'm so nervous.

- There's no one. - There's no one?

No one? Are we the first ones?

Liar.

Come out.

- Come out. - Really?

Come out!

I don't think we're the first ones.

It's Sangah and Yeeun unni!

But in my opinion...

See?

See?

See? What did I tell you?

Unni, are you B?

Yes, I'm B.

[Next up is DOHWA and FYE.]

I want nice members.

- Me? - Yes, you.

[Will DOHWA and FYE be on the same team?]

Huh? B?

B-B?

- What is B? - I don't know.

But we're on the same team. That's nice.

[FYE and DOHWA continue to be on the same team.]

Forever! Forever!

[B]

[Welcome]

- Awesome! - It's `SNAP` Team!

[`SNAP` PICK and DROP Teams became one team.]

We're obviously `i DGA.`

We're just so `i DGA.`

We might be getting ahead of ourselves.

It's also refreshing if we do `PUZZLIN'.`

- True. - Telling us to do it since it's new.

"Try it."

Next up are YEOREUM, SOEUN, and JIHAN.

- Us three? - Let's go!

Hey, hold on!

Could it be we're all going to a different team?

[Are they all going separate ways?]

[Let's see! Same or different teams?]

- What do I do? - Gosh, A, B, and C?

[SOEUN heads to C?] SOEUN, it's this way for us.

[Going the wrong way]

I'm going to C, then.

[YEOREUM and SOEUN are going to B and JIHAN is going to C.]

- It's nice to be going with you. - Seriously.

Do I just get in?

Can I see the unnis-Who is that?

I saw a familiar rear view.

[Familiar rear view]

Welcome!

[Whoa]

- Whoa, we got more people now. - There's eight of us.

[SUYUN and JURI are the last to go.]

Wait, really?

[SUYUN is song A's last member.]

[JURI is song C's last member.]

[Vitamin C]

[Song A: KEI, MIRU, JIWON, RIINA, SOOJIN, CHAERIN, JOOE, WOOYEON, SUYUN]

[Song B: YUKI, HWISEO, YEEUN, SANGAH, DOHWA, FYE, YEORUEM, SOEUN]

[Song C: BORA, YEONHEE, ELLY, ZOA, JIWOO, NANA, JIHAN, JURI, SEOYEON]

I love the members here!

We love it, too!

What do you think our song is?

I thought it's either `I Do` `PUZZLIN'.`

`PUZZLIN'` fits us well because of our image.

But `I Do` also fits well!

I'm really curious about the song!

I think BORA unni is 100% going to be `I Do, ` though.

- Why? - Her voice is perfect for it.

I feel like BORA unni got `PUZZLIN'.`

[Is BORA `I Do` or `PUZZLIN'?`]

[What song is song C, which BORA is a part of?]

Couldn't it be written somewhere?

They never write it anywhere.

Do we rip it open somewhere?

We'll relocate and tell you your song.

Oh, we have to relocate?

Shall we go and check what song we got?

- Yes! - Okay!

Let's go, let's go! [What song is song B going to be?]

[At that time, a person enters Puzzle Studio.]

Gosh, what do I do? I'm nervous.

Who will be telling us what story now?

Imagine the choreographers and the songwriters come in suddenly?

But what song is it?

[They still don't know the song.]

T-Tell us the song first please.

[Huh?]

[What's the thing that made the members so surprised?]

Hello. Hello.

Hello, aigoo.

Hello.

[It's this person who's saying hello over and over because he's nervous.]

[It's Bobby, a member of iKON.]

[He's a competent rapper and a music producer with a unique style, who had won "SHOW ME THE MONEY."]

[Worked as the songwriter for the new song for semi-final, 'i DGA']

Hello, nice to meet you. Nice to you meet you. Hello.

- Just like this? - Hello!

[Feeling awkward for some reason]

Where did he show up out of the blue?

[Tae Yeon has been the only one who came to the Queens' Lounge]

[Bobby, the first visitor to the Queens' Lounge]

- Hello. - Hello!

- Hello. - Yes, hello. I'm Bobby.

Wow!

Wow, so crazy!

I really like Bobby rapping style.

I think he's the coolest rapper.

I think of him as my role model.

[Yuki got to meet her role model, Bobby]

I didn't think I'd see him in person. I was kind of nervous.

I'm here to give you the song for the semi-final.

You don't know what kind of song it is, right?

♫ I don't give a what ♫

[Copying the iconic dance move from 'i DGA' automatically]

- So you've listened to it! - Yes.

The song, 'i DGA' is...

a song that says, "I don't know. I don't care. I'll do it my way."

It'd be great if you could be like, "I'm me!" without caring.

Is there something you want us to keep in mind when we perform this song?

You don't have to pretend. Be pretty if want to be,

and be cool if you want to be.

If you could just be like, "I don't know. I don't care.

I'll just be me."

I think I could show my true self with this song.

So I really want to perform it.

I think I'll see you on the recording day,

but have the pronunciation down until then.

The song have a lot of words.

I just want you to make sure the words are audible.

[Enunciating is important because it's mostly a rap song]

The pronunciation has to be good to get the point across, too.

I'll work hard. I think I could pull it off.

- We're in your care! - We'll work hard.

I'm in your care.

[The members are having a meeting after meeting with Bobby]

Unfortunately, two people need to take one part for now.

[There currently are 8 people in Team 'i DGA']

So if things change later, we can adjust then.

Two people per part no matter what.

Even if I get eliminated, I want to do what I want to do.

- I want to be a sub-rapper this time. - Really?

Sub-rapper 1 or 3 for me.

[3 days later]

[SOEUN is far away from the others while practicing]

[She's practicing the moves outside the formation]

To be honest, I didn't know where to go.

I was pushed out a little.

How about you, SOEUN?

Sub-rapper 1 or 3 for me.

The votes say the sub-rapper 1 should be Yuki.

Okay!

Everyone says the sub-rapper 3 should be Hwiseo.

Since 'Charismatic, ' the results weren't so great.

[Soeun's team kept losing in All-rounder Battle, too.

I kept telling myself to be confident,

but thinking back now, I think I was a bit discouraged.

So...

At this point, I think I could learn the part that I want with another person.

[Soeun volunteered to be an odd one out]

I'd like to last until the final,

but I've been feeling anxious.

But as a member of Team 'i DGA, '

I'll do my best and work hard.

- I think we could do anything. - I think anything would suit us.

I love this team so much!

[Satisfied wink]

- So pretty! - Everyone.

- Huh? - Did you meet the members to perform the new song with?

Yes!

It's an unexpected combination.

It won't be fun to reveal the new songs you'd be performing so quickly.

I thought she was telling us.

Just tell us! Tell us!

I'll reveal in a special way later.

A special way sounds scary!

The semi-final journey starts now.

Let's go!

How will she tell us in a special way, exactly?

Isn't this a recording studio? Are we meeting with the songwriters?

That's so special!

[D Recording studio]

I wonder why we came here.

Do we have to warm up our voices?

[The members are warming up their voices first]

Ma, me, mi, mo, mu!

We don't even know which song we're performing exactly!

I'm curious.

[While everyone was curious]

It's 'Puzzlin'!'

I'd like to know which teams are doing 'I Do' and 'Puzzlin'.'

- We're definitely 'Puzzlin'.' - I'm sure! I'm sure.

5,000%.

[These members ended up with 'Puzzlin'']

[Kei, Miru, Suyun, JooE, Wooyeon, Chae Rin, Ji Won, Soojin, Riina]

Wow! Hello!

[And then someone showed up]

- Hello! - Hello!

I got scared.

Hello, I'm Garden, the producer of 'Puzzlin'.'

[He wrote 'Puzzlin'' with Young K]

I heard the viewers created the teams for the first time.

Yes, we love it. We make a great team.

[Holding hands tightly]

I'm just looking forward to it. I don't worry at all.

We'll work hard!

[Half pressured, half motivated]

We're doing a mock recording to distribute parts.

[Right now?]

- No way! - I was so nervous.

I actually wanted to go first.

Because I wanted to become the main vocalist,

I wanted to create a standard for everyone.

Let's just try singing from the beginning.

[Kei kicked off the mock recording session]

I knew it. That was great.

[Ji Won is the next to go]

[Everyone in Team 'Puzzlin'' finished the mock recording]

Let's hear which parts you guys want.

If I can be greedy,

I'd like to try being the main vocalist.

I actually...

thought Ji Won also

suited the song so well that you could be the main vocalist, too.

suited the song so well that you could be the main vocalist, too.

[Ji Won pulled off the refrain with a sweet voice]

Your voice suits this song so well

that you could be the main vocalist, too.

Well...

I'm a bit nervous, too.

I don't know if I'd be in the semi-final or not at this point.

I think I need to do better.

Being the main vocalist is...

such an important role.

I really want to master the part and give a good performance.

[Who will become the main vocalist of Team 'Puzzlin'?'

[Where are the members with the song C headed to?]

Why did we come to a recording studio?

- We don't even know what song it is. - We really don't.

What would happen?

[That's when...]

It's 'I Do!'

- 'I Do!' - Is this how you're revealing it? Really?

[Song C was 'I Do']

What?

I was just so happy.

Since I showed a lot of new sides of me,

I wanted to show my strength this time.

I was like, "Yes!"

[A flashy entrance]

I do! I do! I do!

Hello!

- I'm Ryan Jeon. - Hello!

Nice to meet you!

The viewers put you guys in the same team.

Yes.

I think it's a dream team.

- Wow! - Thank you!

Let's sing the song from the beginning to the end

and distribute the parts.

Today?

- We can do it! - Yes, that's the attitude.

- You passed! - Passed.

Juri, you made a weird face. You're out!

I do! I do!

I can do it!

As I understand, you're a team of nine.

Seoyeon unni must be in our team!

Jiwoo, when is Seoyeon coming?

She's not coming today. She's filming a music video.

She left to film.

There are nine of you including Seoyeon,

We'll divide between seven members,

and the two members will be overlapped.

Let's practice with that in mind.

- Okay? - Yes.

I think I was very worried.

Two of us will be eliminated eventually.

I wish I won't be one of them.

I'd become confident if I get a part I can do well.

I'll work hard and win the part I want.

So pretty!

- Wow! - What?

[Everyone is in love with Jiwoo's voice]

- It's so pretty! - So pretty.

What?

[The youngest, Zoa is recording next]

So cute. It's so cute!

She's good.

The youngest ones are so good. The Unnis better get nervous.

[The Unnis are recording afterward]

[Bora and Jihan pulled off the chorus part, too]

[Satisfied]

Wow, they're so relaxed.

I know.

[The entire Team "I Do" finished the mock recording]

Let's distribute the parts now.

I like No. 1 the best.

Main vocalist.

- Main? - Bora wants to be the main vocalist.

If I were to distribute parts as the songwriter, I would've made Jihan the main vocalist.

I would've made Jihan the main vocalist.

I would've made Bora the sub-vocalist.

If you see the flow of the song,

it shouldn't sound sharp at all.

"Maybe I do!" Not that. More like, "Maybe I do."

You have to keep it light. You can't be so heavy-handed.

[Bora is hitting the high note with a lot of energy]

[Jihan is hitting the high note smoothly]

I think Jihan should be the main vocalist

and the sub-vocalist 1 should be Bora. That's it.

I think it'd be a little better if Jihan were the main vocalist.

If you listen to the songwriter, too,

the song's image is decided by the main vocalist, too.

Actually, being the main vocalist...

makes me feel pressured a tiny bit.

But if you're feeling pressured because of the title,

it's nothing but a title.

It's similar to the sub-vocalist 1.

I think you'd be better at leading

the chorus part.

I don't think you have to feel pressured so much.

[Bora gave Jihan sincere advice]

I really don't know what to do.

[Who will be Team 'I Do's' main vocalist?]

I want the sub-vocalist 2.

I want the sub-vocalist 3.

- No. 3. - I want No. 3.

No. 3 is popular.

[Meanwhile, Elly isn't talking much]

I was incredibly worried.

There's no guarantee that I won't be one of the five.

I really didn't know what to do.

I couldn't practice properly, either.

I have some fruit. Do you want some?

[Practicing in the recording studio]

[It's not easy to pull off the part]

I sound better when I feel confident.

But I wasn't feeling confident at all.

[Elly couldn't finish the recording to satisfactory]

I sang so shakily.

Afterward, I thought, "I couldn't prove myself."

I want to be the sub-rapper.

- Sub-rapper? - Yes.

Everyone else was so good.

So much more than I expected.

So much more. So...

I think I'll get eliminated.

I hope I don't,

but I have no choice right now.

I want to survive!

Let's go for the final.

[CJ ENM Studio]

The viewers put together the puzzle for the semi-final.

Another Queendom Puzzle's combination has been born.

As the result to the combination voting tonight,

only 21 of them can enter the semi-final.

What ideal combination do you want to survive until the end?

Okay.

The number of votes we got so far is...

How many?

Please show us.

Yes, it's being calculated right now.

The voting will end shortly.

Please puzzle now.

[Real-time voting for the final combination ending shortly]

This is the current puzzle for the three new songs

in the Semi-Final, assembled by the viewers.

These are members for the first song, "Puzzlin'."

JooE, Soojin, Miru, Kei,

Suyun, Ji Won, Chae Rin, Riina, Wooyeon.

These are members for the second song, "Puzzlin'."

Soeun, Yeeun, Yuki, Yeoreum,

Do Hwa, Fye, Sangah, Hwiseo.

These are members for the third song, "I Do."

Nana, Jihan, Bo Ra, Elly,

Juri, Jiwoo, Zoa, Yeonhee, Seoyeon.

You, the viewers have assembled the puzzle with

nine for "Puzzlin'," eight for "i DGA," and nine for "I Do."

But this is not a complete puzzle.

Five out of twenty-six members will not perform in the Semi-Final stage.

Did you all vote?

Yes.

No one knows which members will return to their seats,

unable to perform a new song, yet.

Today, your votes will determine the fate of the members.

Don't forget to assemble the puzzle.

You will be able to check out the final Semi-Final puzzle

on Tuesday, August 8th, on the live broadcast of Queendom Puzzle.

Suyun of "Puzzlin'."

Yes.

How's the practice going?

All nine of us that have been assembled for "Puzzlin'"

are working hard with the hope to perform in the Semi-Finals.

Would you like a taste of the choreography highlight?

Wow, great.

Five, six, seven, eight.

A small heart. That was adorable.

Now, Soeun with "i DGA."

Yes.

Any words for our viewers, who are eagerly waiting for the Semi-Finals?

Everyone, you know the song "i DGA," right?

I don't give a what?

We look forward to showing you our confidence

in the Semi-Final performance.

I'm so excited for the confident energy.

Next, Elly of "I Do."

Yes.

What do you think about the "I Do" combination, created by the viewers?

I've performed with some of the nine members and not the others.

We have a great balance, and our vibes go well with the song.

It's a match made in heaven.

Yes, looking at the member combinations for the new songs,

I think the viewers have done a great job with the puzzle.

Whether the members can perform the new songs or not

will be determined by the votes of the viewers.

You must be watching eagerly, curious about

the results of special live broadcast.

The twenty-six members are waiting more eagerly than anyone.

Whatever results we face today, I will always cheer on your next steps.

We are not closing the voting for the final combination.

Five, four, three, two, one.

The voting has concluded.

[Voting for the combination has concluded]

The voting has concluded.

Who will be the members continuing in Queendom Puzzle?

We will reveal the results as soon as we tally up.

Before going to the announcement, our members have prepared a special performance.

Wow. Our youngest Zoa and Jiwoo.

What have you prepared?

Hello, we are the youngest members of Queendom Puzzle, Zoa,

and Jiwoo.

- Zoa. - Yes.

Don't you think I grew taller recently?

Wow, wow. You do look taller.

What happened?

It must be because I gobbled up love from the viewers of Queendom Puzzle.

In that case, we better give back to the viewers

who love us and are always cheering us on.

Jiwoo, what did you prepare?

A Rise Up Performance!

Don't look away even for a second because

we'll be giving you a surprising gift during the performance.

We will share our hearts with you

in the Rise Up performance.

Queens assemble!

[On one sunny summer day]

[Queens assemble at Puzzle Studio]

[Unique morning greeting]

We're here!

Me too, me too!

I can't see anything if Suyun's in front.

Me too!

Here I am.

- Let's go. - Let's go!

[Everyone clocking into work]

- Wow, Queens' note. - Hello.

We're the first ones.

That must be the case.

Okay. [Queens' notes filling up]

Courage.

That's true. [We can be brave when you cheer us up. Thank you from Yeonhee]

That's true.

I have a new nickname from the fans.

[Queens' notes fill the whole page]

Hello.

[Members excited to see each other for the first time in a while]

This is Puzzle Team, right?

Hello.

[Greeting each other with excited hearty cheers]

Hi.

Come behind here.

Where's Bo Ra?

Bo Ra's not here.

Bo Ra...

Bo Ra's not here.

[Clanking]

Hello.

What?

Hello.

[Bo Ra arrives with a mailbox]

What's that?

What is that?

The mailbox from your first performance!

Right!

[Bo Ra moved everyone's hearts with her Up Down Battle performance]

[Stage prop at the time]

It looks heavy.

Are you okay?

It must be heavier than you.

What is that?

Why did you bring that?

- Are you curious? - Yes.

I have a gift for you.

It's a gift?

Are you sure it's a gift?

You say it's a gift, but you're going to give us another mission.

I'm scared.

I'm scared.

Our fans have written

you all letters.

I am here to hand them over.

I'm going to cry.

Our fans?

- How? - I can't look right now.

- When did they write the letters? - Right?

[Queendom Puzzle pop-up store from last June]

[Red mailbox in the corner of the pop-up store]

Wow.

Daebak.

[Letters thoughtfully written with the members in mind]

These are letters written when the pop-up store was open.

[A mailbox full of fan letters]

Soojin.

Let's read it together.

I'm going to read.

[Members excitedly opening the letters]

What a long letter!

Wow.

[Reading slowly and attentively]

[To Fye: I will be watching the show]

[and supporting you]

What do I do?

[Members focusing on reading the letters]

I read each and every word carefully and with love.

The fans are the reason I can continue on this journey.

I will never give up as long as there is a single person listening to my songs.

I'm going to work harder.

[Kei, you always shine so beautifully onstage]

What do I do?

The line that stood out to me is

"I smile and feel happy when I watch Juri."

"I keep hearing that my face is beaming more than usual."

"Because I'm smiling when I watch you."

Reading that just

made me so happy.

[No matter where you are, whatever you're doing, Soeun, you're the best]

My self-esteem keeps shrinking during the competition.

I was feeling less confident.

"I know you're always working hard."

"Be confident. Don't worry about what others think."

"I hope you get to show off what you wanted to share of yourself."

"And I hope you don't get hurt."

I felt so moved, like the fans care

more about me than the score, and I wanted to meet them.

[I want to keep a smile on the faces of my fans who are cheering me on]

[Thank you Miru for appearing on a Korean survival show again]

I'm so grateful.

I was so grateful, reading the letter.

No one's ever asked me how

the new challenge is going.

I felt like my fans really care about me.

I was so touched by them cheering me on,

that I felt stronger the moment I read it.

Wow, I better stay strong.

I was so grateful.

[Quietly reflecting on a letter]

[Unable to suppress the emotions bubbling up]

I must have been yearning for words of encouragement.

I was craving words of encouragement,

and a fan was comforting me with lyrics from my own song...

They wrote down lyrics from a fan song.

I felt comforted.

JooE, it's been a long time since I saw you on TV.

I am looking forward.

I'm always cheering you on.

For you, JooE, who will shine on the stage,

I will always watch the live broadcast, cheering you on.

"When the door between us opens up,

run to me. I'll be standing here.

I'm a merry-go-round."

[A song she sang for her fans who are silently cheering her on]

[coming back to her as words of encouragement in this moment]

I'm tearing up.

[All the members must feel the same]

I am so encouraged by

everyone who showed up, because

I feel like every single person is cheering me on.

Thank you so much.

Oh, this.

Do you know the fan?

This is from a Lightsum member.

Oh, really? Wow!

You're really a happy person!

I saw Chowon writing next to me.

I didn't know what she was writing,

but when I opened the letter, it had her name written on it.

Hi, Yoon Sangah, I'm Chowon.

Can't believe you ended up on Queendom Puzzle.

I feel so proud of you.

Because you're our cool leader and my friend.

I believe you can do well.

Don't be discouraged. Do well. Just crush it.

Be successful, Yoon Sangah.

I love you, LIGHTSUM. I love you, Yoon Sangah.

So touching.

I feel so sad.

Reading a letter from my teammate when she's not here made me tear up.

Chowon's composed, but sincere words of encouragement were well expressed.

I was so touched and felt thankful toward her.

We'll work hard! Thank you!

Thank you!

I've been working hard and it's already the semi-final.

I want to share the stage with them until the end.

Thank you for cheering for me even though I'm lacking.

To make up for the support,

I'll show various sides of me on stage.

I hope you stay with me for the rest of the journey, too.

Don't go anywhere!

I'll hold on to you tightly!

Don't go anywhere!

I'm so thankful.

I appreciate it so much.

It's our duty to return the favor on stage.

Let's return the favor by singing.

Let's!

[For the fans who supported their journey on Queendom Puzzle]

[We present you, 'Rise Up']

['Rise Up' - Queendom Puzzle]

[After reading loving letters from fans]

What should we do?

It'd be nice if we could gift them something.

I know.

[The members are thinking hard about something]

[A moment ago, after reading fan letters]

I'll take it home with me.

My heart feels warm.

Thank you so much!

For the fans...

For loving us so much, I think we should return the favor somehow.

What if we prepare a small event?

Sounds good!

Nana, nice!

Which performance did the fans found fun?

'Fighting!' 'Fighting!'

'Fighting!'

I wrote a message on the resignation letter and shoot it in the air.

I wanted that resignation letter, too!

Yes, I wanted it, too.

[Everyone enjoyed the 'Fighting' performance]

[The members' resignation letters were scattered on the stage]

[A relatable performance was created with handwritten resignation letters]

They really liked it.

Instead of resignation letters, we can write messages...

Write letters and shoot them?

Sounds good.

Nice, nice!

I hope it'd be very memorable.

Since we got handwritten letters from them...

We should write them back by hand.

I'll express my gratitude.

Whenever I think of the fans, my heart warms up.

Whenever I read fan letters or meet with the fans,

I think they're the reason why I became a singer.

My motivation.

You guys are my motivation.

How could I express it with words?

Me, too!

I'm sure it won't compare to...

the sincere feelings they express,

but we wrote messages to them to express our gratitude.

What should I say?

I want it to sound perfect.

I want to make them cry.

Kei wants to make them cry.

I want to touch their hearts.

My handwriting hast to look nice.

It's hard.

- My handwriting looks so bad. - I know.

Is it okay if it looks so bad?

[Filling up a small piece of paper to express gratitude]

Thank you for being with me whether I'm happy or struggling.

I'll stay by your side forever.

I like you. I love you.

Vitamin Juri's vitamin is Catch.

- Friendly version? This. - Yeah.

- Forever. - Forever.

Forever.

Forever.

[I'll always try to smile! Love you forever. - Miru]

Thank you.

[I feel happy when I perform thanks to you. Thank you. - Elly]

Thank you for gifting me with the moments

full of love. Thank you.

[All the moments we shared were shiny and happy. Thank you. - Wooyeon]

My handwriting is so poor, but my heart is...

[Thank you for always loving me. I'm sending even bigger love back to you!]

[Queendom Puzzle was even more memorable thanks to you. Thank you and love you. - Bora]

I feel like it's not good enough.

[Thank you for cheering for me a lot]

[I'm Yoon Seo Yeon. I have something to say...]

I suddenly have a lot of thoughts. I don't know what to say.

[Our fans. My fans. Forever fans. I'll forever be your singer]

What should I say?

[Thank you for joining my journey on Queendom Puzzle. - Weeekly's Soeun]

We've been together whether it was hot or cold...

So my every moment could shine more.

[Thank you for always supporting us. I'll only make you happy. Love you]

Dear fans that I love and feel thankful for.

I'm so grateful that we got to know each other.

I don't know what to say.

[Hello, it's Hwiseo. Thank you for your support! I hope you're always happy]

[Thank you for making me special. I'll always be your singer. - Yeoreum]

[Thank you for putting together puzzles that are full of memories]

The moment I felt the happiest.

[The moment I felt the happiest]

My latest performances.

They couldn't come to the live shows,

but they were able to come recently.

The fans told me,

"Suyun, I've never seen you smiling like this since you debuted."

They said they've never seen me so happy.

I thought I was just performing,

but I guess I smiled without realizing.

I thought, "I'm the happiest when I perform."

I've experienced project groups

as a unit, I think.

It's a good chance for me to show a different side of me.

Experiencing different combinations

scared me at first. But with each episode,

I could see myself growing.

Collaborating with others, I could see new sides of me. I'm happy about that.

I hope you send lots of love to me as well as the journey ahead of other colleagues.
