The MBN entertainment program 'Hyunyeok Ga-wang 3' is continuing its popularity, breaking its own highest viewership ratings. In the first round of the finals, 'New Song Battle,' airing on the 3rd, Hong Ji-yoon and Gu Su-gyeong will showcase a radical transformation.

Hong Ji-yoon has demonstrated a wide musical spectrum by performing various genres. In this first round of the finals, she will take on the challenge of directly learning 'Jeongga,' a traditional Korean vocal music, along with a new ballad trot song that reinterprets Jongmyo Jeryeak in a modern way. After her performance, she confessed, "It was so, so difficult."

Gu Su-gyeong, who advanced to the finals in 4th place after 10 years of obscurity, is called a 'growing dark horse' and is challenging traditional trot. He conveyed his wish, "I hope others can be comforted, just as I was comforted," and composer Yoon Myung-seon revealed, "​My throat gave out" while adding chorus to his new song, foreshadowing a high-note explosive performance.

Meanwhile, MC Shin Dong-yeop heated up the atmosphere by making a surprise appearance on stage during Seol Woon-do's congratulatory performance and showcasing a dance performance. He shared his thoughts, saying, "​I danced more intensely than I have in years."

The production team has announced that the finals will be "a life-or-death ultimate move stage" and urged viewers not to miss Shin Dong-yeop's special performance. 'Hyunyeok Ga-wang 3' is a survival music entertainment program that selects Korea's representative singers and will air on the 3rd at 9:50 PM.
