[2 weeks ago]

Find the perfect combination for a girl group.

Queendom Puzzle.

Interim result announcement for the combination voting.

The Top 7 that will enter the semi finals.

Hwiseo.

Yuki.

With her, the members of the Top 7 have changed.

I was so shocked.

Yeoreum.

Nana.

Yeeun.

- Thank you, everyone. - You're the best.

They secured positions in the Top 7.

It was so thrilling.

Can they secure their position in the Top 7?

Because it was the interim announcement, I'll try to secure my spot at the top...

I thought I should work hard.

The ones who are eliminated. Sangah, Soeun, Seoyeon,

Chae Rin, and JooE will no longer continue on on Queendom Puzzle.

It hurt my feelings a lot.

Seeing the members suddenly made me cry.

I could sense how much they care about me.

It was actually very moving.

I cried too much.

Don't cry, Seoyeon. You're making me so sad.

- Well done. - Well done.

I'm a happy person.

It was so overwhelming. Everyone was crying.

What's this?

It's a bouquet.

Daebak. There's a letter, too.

- A letter? - There's a letter.

It's what I wrote in the first round.

To me, who's starting an adventure.

You're the best. Fighting.

[And another piece of paper]

I hope your time on Queendom Puzzle was a precious chapter of your youth we created together.

Today, I realized more that I really care about my colleagues, we became so tight,

and I've been comforted by them a lot. I suddenly realized that today.

That's why I won't be able to forget this day.

When the filming started, I was actually very afraid.

I was so nervous, too. Don't be afraid.

Be confident. Park Soeun, Fighting.

Fighting.

One of the 28 reasons why we love Soeun is

because she's a one of a kind

and rare multi-talented artist.

You're my only one.

I was able to give a lot of performances.

I'm thankful and feel rewarded, too.

I was so happy. It as so great.

Thank you.

I mean...

- I don't normally cry this much. - I know.

There's something I've always said.

Things always work out one way or another. In this moment...

Why are you talking like that?

And that was written there.

We support Seoyeon, who always moves forward with the flow without fear.

[Everyone is wailing]

Since I debuted,

I saw the members of Queendom Puzzle more than tripleS.

Hello, nice to meet you.

- Fighting. - I remembered the times I spent with Unnis.

[Happy moments she shared with the members]

Don't let go of happiness.

Thank you so much.

The audience's faces and cheering.

I won't be able to forget any of that.

My 2023 will be defined by Queendom Puzzle.

I was happy.

Well done!

- Yes, yes, Fighting. - Yes, yes, Fighting.

I'm here to destroy the stage.

I'm the best.

[Her first performance was filled with high spirit]

During the Up Down Battle, I was very self-conscious.

I don't want to go in.

I won't go in.

I was worried a lot

and I couldn't trust myself enough.

- But... - We need to cheer up.

We're going out for dinner tonight!

I realized it's more important to enjoy the performance and creating something together.

I noticed how much more solid became.

We'll always support JooE's first steps to her beginning.

P.S. Drive safely today, too.

[We support JooE, the best driver]

I'm sorry.

[JooE's first day was awkward in every way]

Queendom Puzzle is letting me take my first steps.

I can overcome anything.

I was on Queendome Puzzle, too. There isn't anything I can't do.

Nothing at all.

I agree.

3, 2, 1.

Although my journey on Queendome Puzzle ended here...

This is Sangah. I think I let myself known properly.

To me, Queendom Puzzle was...

a cool challenge.

It's a new beginning.

[We support their new bright journey. - Queendom Puzzle's production crew]

The 21 members who are moving on to the semi-finals.

The current Top 7 can change anytime.

I think a lot can change at this point.

Can the Top 7 secure their spots?

After the semi-finals...

Seven members will be eliminated.

Only the 14 members will move on to the last round to join EL7Z U+P.

- So I can move on to the finals... - I want to seize the opportunity again.

[CJ ENM Studio]

A global project girl group created by the viewers is about to be born.

Queendom Puzzle.

The interim result of the combination voting was revealed in the last live special.

This is the perfect combination you came up with.

[The perfect combination, Top 7: Nana, Yeoreum, Yeeun, Yuki, Jihan, Kei, Hwiseo]

And a new battle is starting tonight.

The 14 members who will also join the semi-finals.

Who will join the Top 7 today, August 8th?

14 of them will join the final and 7 of them will get eliminated.

The members' destinies will be decided tonight.

What combination are you imagining?

Create the perfect combination for a girl group. Queendom Puzzle.

[Queendom Puzzle]

The project group created with a new combination

EL7Z U+P.

They will become active as a group soon.

As the album gets released,

they will be having a global tour all around the world.

And they will be giving a performance and surprise the world at the 2023 MAMA Awards.

Queens assemble.

Will the current Top 7 be able to secure their spots today?

Let's see.

As of August 8th,

who will be the Top 7, the perfect combination?

The current state of the Top 7 will be revealed soon, as well.

Create the perfect combination for a girl group. Queendom Puzzle.

Hello, I'm the MC, Taeyeon.

[MC Taeyeon]

On July 25th, as the result of the interim announcement of the combination voting,

5 members finished their journey on Queendom Puzzle

and 21 members moved on to the semi-finals.

And on July 25th, the perfect combination created by the viewers,

the Top 7 has been created.

Will the be able to secure their spots on the Top 7 again today?

Who will be on the Top 7 today, August 8th?

The status of Top 7 today will be revealed soon, as well.

On the 7th, on the live show, the combination vote

was reset with the 21 members.

For two weeks, viewers from 171 countries

participated in Queendom Puzzle's combination voting every day.

So far, we set the record by receiving 6,628,177 votes.

Thank you so much for your love an interest.

The perfect combination of seven members chosen by you.

EL7Z U+P. Next week, Queendom Puzzle's global project group will be born at the end of our journey.

While the seven members continue their activities,

they will simultaneously be members of the project group, EL7Z U+P, too.

I hope you continue to support their new beginning.

Last week, on August 8th, we revealed the interim voting result again.

As a result, a new member joined the Top 7.

- Yeonhee. - Yes.

Yes. You joined the Top 7 after the surprise announcement.

You must be overwhelmed. Please tell us how you feel.

Actually, while I was practicing for the semi-finals,

I found out I made the Top 7.

I feel like my hard work has been acknowledged on Queendom Puzzle.

I'm so very happy.

I'll give a great performance

so I can make the Top 7 today.

I hope you look forward to it. Thank you so much for your support.

Yes. I'm looking forward to find out the result today.

The semi-finals performances will start soon.

Depending on the quality of their performances,

the members' destiny might change.

The margins of the votes are very close.

The situation could always change.

I hope you pay attention to the Top 7's status today.

In the semi-final battles, they will be competing with three new songs.

"Puzzlin'," "i DGA," and "I Do."

Soon, the new three teams' performances will be revealed.

As the result of the semi-finals, out of 21 members,

the 14 members, who will be in line to join the finals and join EL7Z U+P.

and 7 members who will be eliminated will be determined.

The combination voting, which determines the perfect team of 7 will be happening today, too.

And today, we'll have another voting.

Live text voting, which will determine the winning team in the semi-finals will be happening.

After watching the three semi-finals performances, vote for the team

that you think was the best.

As a result, the winning team will be given 30,000 points of benefit.

Tonight, the benefit scores of the winning team,

and the combination votes from Korea and all over the world will be combined

to determine the members' destinies.

What are the three teams for the semi-finals?

You guys are curious, right?

Yes!

Yes. The team voting will start after the three teams' puzzles get completed.

Before voting for a team, we should start the combination voting,

which determines the Top 7 first.

Queendom Puzzle's combination voting decides who moves on to the finals and who gets eliminated.

I'll let you know how to vote first.

You're able to create new combinations for Queendom Puzzle.

Open Mnet Plus app or go to the global voting platform

and create the perfect combination of 7, who will move on to the finals out of 21 members.

You will be creating the global group, EL7Z U+P.

Queens assemble.

You know how to participate in combination voting now, right?

If so, we'll start Queendom Puzzle's semi-final combination voting.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Voting starts.

[Combination voting started]

Create your perfect combination right now.

Queendom Puzzle's semi-final is being broadcasted live.

The combination voting is happening as we speak.

You can vote once on Mnet Plus app,

and once on the global voting platform.

Don't forget to create puzzles.

To determine who will enter the finals or get eliminated,

the three teams will be performing three new songs.

The first song was created by Day6's Young K

and GARDEN. It's "Puzzlin'."

The second song was written by iKON"s Bobby.

It's "i DGA."

The last song was written by Ryan Jeon and Space Primates. It's "I Do."

In the last live special, five members have been eliminated.

As a result, the three teams have changed, too.

All three teams need to have seven members.

The members of the semi-finals were recalibrated

by the members sending signals to each other.

I'm curious to see what happened

and how each team was created as a result.

Let's check it out together right now.

[They showed up at Puzzle Studio after the interim announcement]

- We're headed to the lounge. - Here we go.

It feels different somehow.

For some reason I...

I feel drained.

- Hello. - Hello.

[Bora and Jiwon are going to work without Chaerin]

It feels a little lonelier today.

[After Seoyeon got eliminated]

[Ji Woo became alone]

Jiwoo! Hi.

- Hello. - So cute. We're all here.

It feels empty somehow.

Is this really everyone?

Everyone's here, but it feels so empty.

[During Remix Battle]

[The lounge was filled with 26 people's chatter]

We're all here.

It feels empty.

There were a lot of seat cushions, too.

There are not many now. It feels so empty.

This space feels so empty now.

[Everyone's more calm now]

["Puzzlin'", "i DGA," "I Do"]

["Puzzlin':" 7 members, "i DGA:" 6 members, "I Do:" 8 members]

Hello, everyone.

[MC Taeyeon showed up on the monitor]

In the semi-finals, you will perform three new songs.

There will be judges who will determine your fate in this battle, too.

Isn't it the viewers?

August 8th, on the day of the live show,

the viewers will vote via text to determine the winning team.

Wow, text voting?

Since everyone who watches the show can vote...

I'm not sure how it'd turn out.

The benefit score for the entire winning team will be

30,000 points.

30,000 points.

This benefit will change things a lot.

Since it's 30,000 points...

Everything can change.

I thought it was a good opportunity.

Each team will be a team of seven.

There's a team that has seven members.

But there's a team that's too big and too small, too.

Yes.

The team that's too small.

You must have a member you want to recruit to strengthen the team.

Huh?

[Recruit?]

I knew it.

Only Team "i DGA" needs more, right?

We're missing one person.

You have eight members because you have Nana, right?

Yes, they have eight members.

- You guys are perfect. - We have exactly seven members.

After discussing, among the two teams...

Two teams?

Choose three members you want starting from first place to third place.

You can choose from either team, regardless of how many members they have.

So we're choosing three members.

Not just "I Do." It can be anyone...

It can be one of us, too.

If they want one of us...

We shouldn't have felt relaxed.

I was anxious. I feared they'd steal our team member.

Instead, the chosen members can listen to their proposal

and choose if you'd stay or not.

You can say no.

That's fair.

After trying to recruit,

if you still don't have the right number,

A team with too many members will choose who to remove.

It will be decided by voting.

It means we're eliminating one of our own.

They want us to kick someone out.

Starting now, we'll start the reshuffling puzzle for the semi-finals.

I felt nervous. There are too many talented members.

Since we had to give a good performance, we had to be strategic, too.

I thought we needed someone who could create a synergy.

Please go to the studio on the 1st floor.

Since we have eight members,

our team will change no matter what.

I'm so upset about that.

- Who do you think they'll want? - I wonder.

I hope it doesn't change.

Me, too.

I wonder who they're considering.

I'm so curious.

I know.

I'd like someone with a good energy.

Someone with a good sense of rhythm.

I'd like someone who knows how to have fun.

["i DGA" - A house song with an EDM sound. It's a new song with unique combination of singing and rapping]

I'm thinking Nana.

Nana's

[First choice: Nana]

She'd be a good strategic choice for us.

I thought Juri would do a good job.

Juri?

Juri has a powerful voice, too.

I thought she could make it feel hip.

Suyun is really powerful.

[Third choice: Suyun]

I can imagine Suyun performing. It'd be so cool.

What we need to worry the most is...

- votes. - The text votes.

It'd determine who gets the benefit and win.

I don't think we could ignore them.

This is hard.

'i DGA" has a lot of the Top 7 members.

They do.

You're right.

Yeoreum. Yeeum.

Yuki.

We need a Top 7 member strategically...

That's an option.

They must be thinking about the benefit a lot.

It's possible that they'd steal a Top 7 member...

- Going up. - Then I don't think that would happen.

Nana. Jihan. Kei.

What do we do? Who do you think they'd want?

I really have no idea.

The members we want to recurit are...

The first choice is xxx.

The second choice is xxx.

The third choice is xxx.

Everyone.

Just now...

- Just now? - Team "i DGA"

chose the members they want to recruit.

Protect Team "I Do."

What do we do?

The members they want to recruit are...

Who will it be?

Which members?

Team "I Do's"

First choice. Team "I Do's" Nana.

Nana was their choice.

It's Nana.

I knew it.

Shall we call them?

Let's go.

[They're suddenly making a video call?]

- Why are you alone? - She's hosting a show.

I see.

[They're calling her to recruit her]

It's Queendom Puzzle.

- Unni. - So cute.

Unni, you look cute today.

Thank you. Hello.

We chose you as our first choice.

Oh.

My first choice is Nana.

She'd help strategically, too.

Team "Charismatic's" MVP is...

Nana.

[7 vs. 7 Battle's MVP]

Remix Battle's 1st place goes to Team "Nxde."

Puzzle Team won all the rounds and became the final winner.

Thank you so much for wanting me the most.

We're willing to redistribute the parts, too.

There are four members who are on the Top 7 here.

You're flirting with me right now.

Yes, totally.

And "I Do" and "Puzzlin'" are similar kind of songs.

["I Do" and...]

["Puzzlin'" both have lovely tones]

"i DGA" is totally different compared to those two.

["i DGA" has a more powerful tone]

So we can grab the viewers' attention, too.

The text votes are important, right?

[She's overwhelmed by the endless proposals]

I'll put a lot of thoughts into it.

Okay.

I'm curious.

I wonder what Nana would choose to do.

This is too hard.

I was actually really torn.

Nana, what do you think?

She's feeling torn right now, too.

Nana unni...

[What will Nana choose to do?]

[She finally made a decision]

Unni.

I've been thinking about it.

Well...

She apparently made up her mind.

Wow.

Say you want "I Do." "I Do."

Would you tell me, "I Do?"

This time...

I think I want to give a good performance

as a member of "I Do."

Thank you so much for choosing me.

The viewers chose the specific songs for us.

So I decided to keep our team together.

The team Nana chose is Team "I Do."

[Nana's the best]

- Nana! - I knew it!

Second choice. What do we do with the second choice?

This isn't the end.

This isn't the end of it.

Their second choice is from...

Is it "I Do" or "Puzzlin'?"

"Puzzlin'?"

Team "Puzzlin'."

We're already a complete team.

Here comes the next member.

I think xx will like "i DGA."

She told me she wants it.

She's been talking about it from the beginning.

Let's try to appeal to her.

Here she is.

I can start to see her shadow.

Welcome, Suyun.

Hello.

Thank you for bringing me here.

[Bowing together]

[She keeps laughing because she's embarrassed somehow]

We were thinking about who could bring us energy.

When we listen to the demo recording,

I suddenly heard your voice.

[Showing her the choreography video]

Since the benefit score is 30,000 points

and we're a team with a lot of Top 7 members,

we thought we could have a synergy together.

I'll give it a lot of thought.

See you later.

I was very firm about it when I was with "Puzzlin'" members, but...

They're like my first love, in a way.

"i DGA" was the song I wanted from the beginning.

[When the semi-final songs were revealed]

I want "i DGA."

And they have four Top 7 members, too.

They said I could get the benefit with them.

I should consider that since it's a survival show. Seriously.

I feel so torn right now.

I think Suyun will go to them.

You think she'll go?

Is that your hunch?

Yes. We're a family.

She must know since they're like a family.

[Meanwhile, Suyun made up her mind]

["i DGA" floor, "Puzzlin'" floor]

[Which team will she go to?]

- Oh, oh, oh! - Is she here? Is she?

[She came back to Team "Puzzlin's" room]

I missed you.

She's here.

[Which team did she end up choosing?]

What will her decision be?

The team I ended up choosing is...

To "i DGA's" proposal,

I said no.

I said no.

[Good job, my teammate]

The team I ended up choosing is "Puzzlin'."

It's okay, it's okay. We understand.

I'm so thankful that Team "i DGA" chose me,

but while practicing "Puzzlin',"

I thought our members could create a great performance together.

That's why I chose them.

I think we'd have a better chance with "I Do."

- I think so, too. - If the positions overlap,

they could be persuaded.

The member Team "i DGA" wants to recruit is in Team "I Do."

Since her energy is so great, I want Elly more.

I want Elly more.

She suits the song so well.

She rapped for "Snap," too.

She was so good then, too.

[The next member they want is Team "I Do's" Elly]

I wish Elly would join us.

They chose Elly.

Yes, yes. I saw it coming.

Unni, will you go?

I didn't see it coming. Why me?

Elly!

[Extremely welcoming]

[Ahahaha]

So cute.

I didn't anticipate this at all.

I saying bye to Riina.

- It's you. - Why?

- There are so many reasons. - Because...

We really like your unique energy

and we really like your unique voice, too.

You can sing and rap, too. You're cool.

And we haven't practiced the choreography much, either.

There are a lot of Top 7 members in this team, Unni.

You prefer to wear long pants.

The outfits are really comfortable to dance in.

And you like malatang, too.

We're planning to eat malatang when we practice.

The song changed a bit.

There are more singing and rapping parts, too.

We mentioned that we want a vocalist with a good sense of rhythm when we discussed.

Do you want to listen just a half of it?

Isn't it a different song?

- It's a demo. - It changed.

It has more singing parts now.

I mean... What do I do?

We need you.

She spoke for the first time.

[Yuki spoke for the first time for Elly]

Yuki talked for the first time.

I'll go think about it.

- Think about it. - See you later.

[Elly is deep in thoughts]

"i DGA."

They have four TOP 7 members.

That's good but...

If I do 'I Do', I can carry out my part well.

And I love the team.

But if I do 'i DGA',

I need to practice again.

Unni.

- It's Elly. - Unni.

Did you think about it?

[Self-background music]

You look more pensive than when you left.

[Mysterious smile]

Thank you

and sorry.

['I Do' Team is also waiting for the answer]

I choose

'I'...

['I Do' or 'i DGA'?]

D... D... D...

I will join...

I will join...

'i DGA'.

[Really?]

[Real joy]

[Finally found our member!]

[ELLY completes 'i DGA']

[ELLY tells 'I Do' Team her decision]

Is she serious? I can't tell!

You're coming to 'I Do' practice room together?

I'm serious.

In 'I Do', I think I wasn't satisfied about rapper position.

Someone had to switch from our team anyway.

It's an expel in the end.

Yes, if it comes to that...

If it leads to an expel,

I'd be way too devastated.

From my perspective, there's no other member that can move.

Everyone suits 'I Do' really well

and gets along well. So...

I ended up choosing 'i DGA'.

We have complete 'i DGA' now.

[What will three newly-composed teams look like?]

[Final members for each team]

[CJ ENM Studio]

The puzzle for the 3 semi-final songs is complete!

Do you think it was puzzled in the best way possible for each song?

These are the 3 semi-final teams that viewers and members combined together!

First of all, the final members of 'PUZZLIN'!

RIINA, WOOYEON, MIRU, KEI,

JIWON, SOOJIN, and SUYUN.

With the 7 people who have advanced to the semi-finals, the puzzle was completed without any changes.

Next, the final members of 'i DGA'!

DOHWA, FYE, YUKI, ELLY,

YEOREUM, YEEUN, and HWISEO.

The team lacked one member,

but ELLY, who was a member of 'I Do', joined the team

and the puzzle was completed with 7 members!

Lastly, the final members of 'I Do'!

JIWOO, NANA, YEONHEE, BORA,

JURI, JIHAN, and ZOA.

This team had one extra member, right?

As ELLY was recruited to 'i DGA',

the puzzle was completed with 7 people!

As I said before, in a moment! The separate team voting to determine

where the 30,000 benefit points will be headed has begun!

Viewers' team votes will determine the winning team, the only and one team!

During the last special live show, the difference in points between SOOJIN, who advanced to the semi-finals,

and SANGAH, who was eliminated, was only 1,011 points.

A whopping 30,000 benefits in this battle!

A number large enough to reverse someone's results.

With this benefit, someone can advance to the finals

and someone can return to where they came from.

Now! Here's how to vote for the semi-finals team!

The voting for the semi final team has begun.

#0011.

Send the number to #0011.

The number is same as the order of the performance.

1 for 'PUZZLIN''.

2 for 'i DGA'.

3 for 'I Do'.

Multiple votes are allowed, but not duplicates.

The song title or the member's name is invalid.

Please send the number of the performance.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

[Voting begins]

Semi-final team voting

is conducted by live text voting, not through the official app.

Please send the number of the team you think did a good job to #0011.

Team numbers are the same as the semi-final stage order.

No. 1, 'PUZZLIN'', No. 2, 'i DGA',

No. 3, 'I Do'.

If only the song title or member's name is sent,

it will be invalid.

1, 2, 3, or no.1, no.2, no.3!

Be sure to send the number the stage like this!

Duplicate voting (voting multiple times for one team)is allowed.

However, multiple voting for multiple teams is possible.

Please keep this in mind and vote carefully!

The contest will begin soon.

For some, today's stage could be the last stage of QUEENDOM PUZZLE.

Please make a calm judgement! Watch the stage of the three teams carefully

and participate in both Combination Vote and Team Vote.

QUEENDOM PUZZLE semi-final!

Now, it's time to check out the stage of the 3 teams!

When their stages are over,

the combination and team voting will soon end.

Don't forget to puzzle!

The team to open the first round of the semi-finals!

'PUZZLIN''!

The tile suits QUEENDOM PUZZLE so well.

How did the members handle this new song?

From preparation to performance, let's check it out on stage right now!

QUEENS ASSEMBLE!

['PUZZLIN']

Let's begin with applause. We managed to maintain the team!

So this is it for this team.

I love it.

Thanks, SUYUN.

Thank you for giving me confidence.

We're going to the semi final with 'PUZZLIN''.

It feels weird.

We're going first.

I'm suddenly getting nervous.

30,000 benefiit points.

We can do it.

To do that, we have to divide the parts.

Some parts overlap.

[In the last part distribution]

I want to try the main vocalist.

Actually I was thinking JIWON would be perfect for the main vocalist.

[Who will be the main vocalist for 'PUZZLIN''?]

But KEI would be better at this

than I am.

Then I wouldn't refuse it.

I want to be the sub vocalist 1.

[However]

I want the sub vocalist 1.

[JIWON and SOOJIN want the same part]

The sub vocalist part overlapped.

[They have to decide who will become the sub vocalist 1]

The sub vocalist 1...

You have to lead the verse

and there's the refrain part, too.

It'd be important.

This will determine whether I can make it to the finals or not.

It's that important.

If I don't prove what I can do in terms of performance and vocal,

this could be my last stage.

So I really want to take this part.

I thought that very strongly.

What do we do?

This is such a hard decision.

You should all vote for us.

It's your opinions that matter.

Shall we vote now?

Are you all ready?

If you think JIWON should be the sub vocalist 1, raise your hand.

I'd pull off the sub vocalist 1 position.

If you think SOOJIN should be the sub vocalist 1, raise your hand.

Honestly, I feel confident.

[The voting ends]

[Who's taking the sub vocalist 1 position?]

JIWON will be the sub vocalist 1.

- Thank you. - It was just one vote difference.

Just one vote.

[3 votes for JIWON]

[2 votes for SOOJIN]

I'll do my best.

Since this could be my last chance,

I want to pull off 'PUZZLIN''.

[With desperation to make it to the final, ]

[JIWON focuses on practicing]

What was here?

[Other members learn the choreography with JIWON's support]

JIWON, which way is it after this?

From here...

From here to here.

Thank you.

[Raising her hand]

Excuse me, when you do this part, do I go up or down?

[JIWON checks every detail]

JIWON took the lead.

She taught us a lot.

Things went well easily.

You need to move your shoulder all the way

and back.

['PUZZLIN'' Team's performance is getting completed]

Okay.

Nice.

That was perfect.

['PUZZLIN'' Team is off to a good start]

[They continue to carry on]

It's fast.

Why is it so fast?

[Fazed by how the choreography speeds up]

It's a bit fast.

Let's try it again with music.

[Again]

[Again]

[It's not easy to keep up with the fast beat]

[Flying]

Sorry!

[Flying and crashing]

[A ruckus]

[Standing tall]

(They continue to make small mistakes)

This is really tough.

Oh, gosh.

(Drained)

(Weird screams in the rehearsal studio)

This is hard.

This is really hard.

Right, but this is an important mission.

7 people will be eliminated after this.

- You need to pull it off. - This could be our last chance.

We need to do really well.

You do.

The choreography is faster and harder than I expected.

So I was worried a lot.

To be honest, I wasn't that confident.

Most TOP 7 members are

in 'i DGA' and 'I Do'.

(Among the TOP 7 members from the last episode, )

(4 of them are in 'i DGA')

(and 2 are in 'I DO')

When you think about it,

we have KEI.

People might think

'i DGA' has a higher chance of winning.

I felt threatened

that people in my team are not as popular.

(It could be the last stage for everyone)

So I'm going to make you all TOP 7.

So I'm going to make you all TOP 7.

(Squealing)

It's my goal to make you all TOP 7.

I don't know what's going to happen to me,

but I'm doing this with the attitude to make everyone TOP 7.

- Good. - You just put my worries in the shade.

That was so cool.

Don't worry. We're doing great right now. I mean it.

Besides, if we put on a high quality performance,

we have a chance.

Yes. Totally.

30,000 points? 30,000 points.

That will be ours,

and we can all go to the final together.

(KEI cheered the team up)

We have no reason to lose.

We're good at making each other confident.

Seriously.

We have all the reasons to be discouraged,

but we should unite even more

especially in times like this.

I want to give my all with no regrets.

I'll do my best to make this team win and make it

to the final with the benefit.

30,000 points.

30,000 points!

(Let's go for 30,000 points)

3, 2, 1. Fighting!

Currently, the semi-final Team Vote is underway through live text voting.

If you think the stage of 'PUZZLIN'' was good,

please send 1 or no.1 to #0011 via text!

Next up it's 'i DGA', the second team!

Guys, you say "Do whatever you want!" often, right?

Literally, on this stage, they will do whatever they want to do without worrying about their surroundings.

QUEENDOM PUZZLE semi-final! The second team, 'i DGA',

Let's check it out starting from the preparation process together!

QUEENS ASSEMBLE!

[i DGA]

Since 7 of us are fixed,

we need to discuss our parts again.

(With ELLY, 'i DGA' Team needs to readjust the parts)

Since I switched the song to get to the final,

although it has a lot of rap,

I decided to take a vocal position.

I think I can appeal more

and do it well.

(During the pre-recording of 'I Do' before coming to 'i DGA')

(She wanted a vocal position in 'I Do' Team as well)

I want to be the sub rapper.

(She gave up the vocal position and applied for a rapper)

I couldn't carry out that part well, so I took the rapper part,

but if I was confident that I'd be here,

I'd have voiced my desire more.

But I just wasn't sure

so I volunteered to be a rapper.

I'll raise my voice this time.

Let's ask ELLY first.

(The members give ELLY to choose first)

Which position do you want the most?

I want a vocalist 1.

(ELLY wants a vocal position)

Who was the sub vocalist 1?

FYE.

Vocalist 1?

(ELLY's desired position overlaps with FYE's part)

(The position must be sorted out)

Then...

(The members can't voice their opinions)

Vocalist 1 was FYE originally so...

I think ELLY is better

because vocalist 1 has to go 'tak tak'.

ELLY is so talented. Her voice is very outstanding

and fits the song.

It's the semi final.

So we have to pick the best for the group.

I like it. Your voice suits the song.

I like it, too.

(The members agree ELLY to do the vocalist 1)

Then ELLY takes vocalist 1.

(ELLY gets the vocal part that she wanted in 'i DGA')

I'll do my best just as the members trusted me

and try to get to the final.

(RECORDING DAY)

You all practiced hard?

Yes, we did.

We practiced hard.

Since I joined them later,

I need to work hard to catch up.

(ELLY practices hard as she joined them later)

(She practices both performance and singing hard)

I didn't want to cause any harm in the team,

so I practiced as much as I could.

(Who's visiting the recording studio?)

('i DGA's composer BOBBY of iKON)

(Everyone stands up)

Hello, hello, hello.

(BOBBY greeted endlessly in their first meeting)

(Greeting endlessly again today)

Hello.

Did you dye your hair?

I did.

You look great.

Thank you. Thanks for noticing.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

Thank you for noticing.

I was really nervous.

Not only is he a senior singer, but also the composer of the song.

I was nervous to record with him there.

Today's recording could last long.

Keep that min mind.

[BOBBY thinks it won't be easy]

I heard four of TOP 7 are here.

Wow!

(4 members are in 'i DGA' Team)

Which team threatens you?

'i DGA' for me.

'i DGA'...

'i DGA'...

'i DGA'...

i DGA' Team is a bit threatening.

Four of TOP 7 are there.

It's the most unique and powerful song

out of three.

('I Do')

(and 'PUZZLIN'' are based on disco)

('i DGA' is the only EDM-based house genre song)

So in many ways, 'i DGA' may have advantages in votes.

Let's win this! Let's go!

(Can 'i DGA' win like many expect?)

('i DGA' recording starts)

She's good.

She sounds relaxed.

Let's listen to it.

ELLY? She practiced a lot.

Let's move on.

(ELLY got approved at once)

Vocal part is hard. I'm glad we have ELLY.

Vocal part is hard. I'm glad we have ELLY.

(ELLY does her part in 'i DGA')

It's really good. Let's move on.

(ELLY is the best!)

I can't wait as I don't know myself

What a great voice.

It's too good.

We shouldn't finish at the first try

and leave me with nothing to do!

(Smooth recording continues)

- I think we're done. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks.

(ELLY finishes recording at her first try)

I think I can give a great 'i DGA' performance.

('i DGA' Team records smoothly)

(YUKI is the last to record 'i DGA')

YUKI was thrilled all day today.

Why?

YUKI is a big fan of yours.

Me? Thank you! I'll do better.

I will work harder.

I was really nervous.

It was my first time to show my skills

to BOBBY, my role model.

Are you nervous?

The tone is much higher than what I'm used to.

(YUKI wants to do well in front of her role model)

YUKI, where should we start?

(BOBBY adjusts to YUKI as she's nervous)

From the verse?

(Starts recording the most worrisome verse)

You don't have to bend that part.

(BOBBY gives detailed feedback)

Let's try a few times.

Let's try that a few times.

(YUKI can't pass the first part)

You're still doing that.

(BOBBY asks for accurate pronunciation more than techniques)

(BOBBY stressed the importance of good pronunciation in their first meeting)

It has many words,

and I want them to be heard clearly.

The walking path...

I had a hard time.

The faster I said it, my pronunciation worsened.

The word is hard.

The word could be hard to enunciate,

so leave the 'l' sound out from earlier

and roll out the pronunciation on the other word.

(Customized feedback for YUKI who's having a hard time)

Walk... walk...

As my pronunciation worsened,

I couldn't believe myself.

Let's try it.

(Go, YUKI!)

(She tries the first part again)

Good, that's it.

You're doing well. Just keep it up.

Good, that's exactly it.

(Finally gets the first part)

Yes.

I'm worried about the performance.

(She keeps practicing even after the recording to fully get it)

The mission benefit is 30,000 points.

I'm worried that I may get disqualified here,

but I trust my team.

After watching our performance,

people will have to vote for us.

We'll do our best to get

30,000 benefit points.

Queendom Puzzle semi-final.

Let's watch our last team I Do's story and performance now.

Queens Assemble.

I've given it some thought.

We have Seoyeon and Elly unnies' parts.

Then there's an overlap between Yeonhee unni, Nana unni, and Jiwoo's parts.

How were the parts distributed?

- I'm sub-vocalist three. - Three? Okay.

- But I'm also sub-vocalist three. - What? Really?

- I'm also three. - Is that so? Okay.

- Sub-vocalist three is the center of the intro. - That's correct.

[Sub-vocalist 3 is in the center of the intro and bridge.]

I'll have to take a look then. You'll all have to compete for it again.

Gosh, compete.

I want to know if anyone had a change of heart or it remains the same.

- For me... - Yes?

- Did you change your mind or is it the same? - Do you feel the same?

- Tell us what you're thinking. - What do you want to do Jiwoo?

- Do everything you want. - Is it three?

Three?

Three?

- Four? - Really?

- I changed my mind. I want to do sub-vocalist 4. - Sub-vocalist 4?

I still want sub-vocalist three.

- Sub-vocalist 3? - So, 3.

When I look at the entire choreography,

- it makes me want to try out for sub-vocalist three. - Sounds good.

Okay.

- Then there's an overlap between Nana and Yeonhee for sub-vocalist three. - That's right.

- How should we decide this? - How should we?

What do we do?

How about we do the choreography?

That sounds good to me.

- The bridge is the key point of this part. - You're right.

[Sub-vocalist 3 takes the lead of the bridge by taking the center position.]

[The 2 decide which part of the choreography they'll dance to.]

Do you mean the latter part of verse one which we learned?

Which part?

Until this part?

[They learned until half of the bridge last time.]

[Yeonhee wants to dance until the end of the bridge.]

Just the part we learned?

Yes.

I already memorized the choreography for this part beforehand.

I already memorized the choreography for this part beforehand.

We didn't know which part we'll have to dance to.

So I actually practiced the entire choreography for sub-vocalist three.

[Yeonhee practiced every part.]

Again. Do it again.

I practiced a lot in the hopes that I could do this part justice.

So I'm feeling pretty confident.

She prepared thoroughly for it.

So I'm going to do my best.

[Yeonhee and Nana dance the choreography they practiced.]

My gosh!

[Our team is great.]

[Yeonhee continues to dance to show the choreography she practiced.]

[Our Unni is so cool.]

- They're both great and suit the part so well. - You two were great.

What should we do?

We can now dance one at a time in front of the mirror.

- Okay, sounds good. - All right.

[Nana dances to the choreography first.]

Thank you.

[You're the best.]

- This is nerve-racking. - Oh, my god.

[Next up is Yeonhee]

[Watching intently]

- Okay! - You're so pretty!

You're both good!

You're both amazing.

- In such a short time. - Thank you.

Gosh, this is hard.

- We'll keep our eyes closed. - Okay.

Please raise your hand

if you'd like Nana or Yeonhee as sub-vocalist three.

The decision has been made.

The member that will take the part of sub-vocalist three is...

Please tell us slowly.

- This is nerve-racking for us too. - Seriously.

The member that will take the part of sub-vocalist three of "I Do" is...

[Who will take the part of sub-vocalist 3?]

All right, can sub-vocalist three go in?

[Both of them enter the recording studio.]

This is the main point. It's the punchline.

[Nana has taken the part of sub-vocalist 3]

- That was very good. - Okay.

Nana ended up taking sub-vocalist three.

Please raise your hand if you'd like Yeonhee as sub-vocalist three.

[Bora was the only one who voted for Yeonhee.]

I could see that Yeonhee practiced a lot and that she really wanted it.

I already competed a ton,

so I no longer have any regrets.

I'll take whatever part is left.

I've been given the part of the sub-rapper.

If I pull off this part too, then that'll show I'm a true all-rounder.

I'll try to make the sub-rapper's part into the killing part.

- Let's try it. - Okay.

Fighting!

[How will Yeonhee do as the rapper again?]

[Amazed]

There's no other choice. Just tell me I do.

My gosh.

You would've been in trouble if you didn't rap.

Seriously. She's great.

- What would you have done? - What would you have done?

[After Yeonhee's sub-rapper part...]

We'll go with that one as the main.

You pass.

[Team I Do recording finishes smoothly]

We've been working really hard for this.

- That's true. - That's true.

- We don't have much left now. So let's do something to energize us. - Fighting.

Shall we drink this together?

"Something to energize us."

Take it.

- "I Do!" - Fighting!

[Fighting, "I Do!"]

- Thank you. - Thank you for the drink.

- It's nutty. - It is.

- It's delicious. - It really is.

I love my members for the semi-final round.

I think we have a shot at getting the benefit of 30,000 points.

Let's set the stage on fire and all make it to the final round.

- Protect "I Do" at all costs. - At all costs.

Protect it at all costs.

I Do, I Do, fighting!

The final contest.

As the journey of QUEENDOM PUZZLE approaches the end,

the members say that they have many thoughts.

Shall we check out their stories?

After the semi finals...

7 members will be eliminated.

14 members for the final will be determined.

To be honest, I didn't see that coming.

TOP 7 interim result.

NANA.

[woo!ah!'s Nana]

Top 7. HWISEO.

I kept telling myself to maintain my place.

YEOREUM.

I want to remain in the TOP 7 to the end.

I'll stay here to the end.

[Yeeun. Top 7]

It's not over yet.

It's too early to celebrate.

What if I get eliminated now?

The combination votes will reset.

TOP 7 members have changed.

The result continues to change.

I want to be able to say let's meet in the finals.

I want to seize the chance to go to the finals once again.

This could be my last stage.

On QUEENDOM PUZZLE, this will be...

My last song to perform here.

This could be my last stage.

I want to give my all without any regrets.

I won't be one of the 7 people who get eliminated.

I'll survive to the finals.

I want to be in this journey until the end.

You'll need me for the finals.

SANGAH is eliminated.

The 30,000 benefit points will affect the result so much.

The rankings are not fixed.

They could change.

I'll do my best to survive to the end.

It's kind of sad.

Well...

I want to perform more without getting eliminated.

But...

I can feel

that it could be my last stage.

That's the feeling I get.

When I look back at QUEENDOM PUZZLE later...

I know everyone will remember my stage anyway.

I'll let you hear my voice.

For the viewers, I want to leave

a good impression.

I want people to remember me as someone who put on a good performance.

The formation of a global project group. This is the goal QUEENDOM PUZZLE was running towards!

So far, viewers have been presented new combinations through 4 battles.

You won't remember, will you?

4 teams in 7 vs 7 Team Battle,

6 teams in Remix Battle,

a total of 10 teams in All-Rounder Battle,

and plus, 3 teams in the semi-final today, a total of 23 combinations were made.

There were so many different combinations!

Among them, there must be a combination that will remain in your heart the most.

And every week, carefully filling in the seven blanks, you may have your own favorite combination.

I wonder what combination you would have voted for today.

Now! Before announcing the finalists and elimination!

We will start by announcing the semi-final winning team that will take 30,000 benefit points!

Members waiting for the results, you must be very nervous right now.

SOOJIN of 'PUZZLIN'' Team,

yes!

Were you satisfied with today's performance?

Yes! I think today's stage will be more memorable as we performed the same as the 7 members the viewers puzzled us for.

We pulled it off very well today.

I hope the song "Puzzling~Puzzling~" continues to linger in your head!

Yes.

"Puzzling~Puzzling~"

I guess I'll also keep humming that melody.

I shouldn't have done it.

This time, ELLY of 'i DGA' Team,

Yes.

You must have practiced harder as you had to move,

do you think your team can win today?

The members of 'i DGA' Team helped me a lot so I had more fun on the stage!

Did the viewers also get a "fresh shock~"?

For some reason, I have a feeling that our team will win!

Like the song 'i DGA', it's good to see you so confident!

JURI of 'I Do' Team!

Yes!

Do you think your team can take

the 30,000 benefits?

We practiced very hard.

I do. I can do it! We...

We can do it!

It's awesome that all 3 teams are very confident to win.

After watching all three stages,

I can't predict which team will win at all!

Now!

Only one team to get 30,000 benefit points!

The semi-final winning team! We will announce it right now!

The winning team to take 30,000 benefits!

Who would be the one

to take the victory?

The winning team is It's i DGA Team!

What is this?

Whoa.

It seems familiar.

(Members show up one by one)

This is the puzzle room!

Is this the puzzle room?

Awesome.

Puzzle room, all of a sudden?

We might have to choose something

or vote for something.

It looks scary.

(a tablet and a headset?)

Are we going in there?

I'm scared. Can I go in?

What is this?

(All members enter the mysterious space)

Do we write something here?

What is this?

Oh.

Hello, welcome.

Puzzle room has returned.

For the final of QUEENDOM PUZZLE,

you'll perform two new songs.

Two songs. For the last time.

7 members out of 14 will team up

and get ready to perform.

Because 7 will be eliminated.

The puzzler for the new song is...

Who's the last puzzler?

(Who will puzzle the team for the final?)

All 21 of you.

What?

Really?

That's amazing.

The new songs for the finals is made by K-POP master who made many hit songs

for Girls' Generation,

SHINee,

EXO,

and NCT. It's the composer Kenzie.

Composer Kenzie?

Awesome.

What a wonderful line-up!

I'll reveal the first song 'Billionaire'.

It's cool how they're standing.

(Performance director: La Chica)

I like it already.

So hip.

(Grooving)

(Hip hop-based medium tempo song)

(A fusion reggae with heavy base and unique guitar skank)

This is the concept I've wanted.

It's very popish.

It looks like a great first song.

(Bouncing together)

So powerful.

I love it.

Oh, gosh.

It's perfect for the awards ceremony.

It's MAMA material.

It's nuts.

What do I do?

I love it.

I'll reveal the second song 'Last Piece'.

('Last Piece')

(Performance director: CHOI YOUNGJUN)

So resolute.

Wow!

What a powerful introduction.

What a great intro!

[Last Piece]

Wow, so cool.

Wow.

'In the last moment'.

So cool.

Oh, gosh,

- this is it. - I can see YEOREUM doing this.

This is charming.

- Savage. - Monster.

Savage.

Wow, this is nuts.

I think this will be popular.

It has so many cool parts.

Start choosing the final song now.

Please go to the puzzle room of the song you want.

Now?

I can't choose.

I love them both.

I love them.

What do I do?

(What will they choose?)

(HWISEO, the first member to puzzle)

I've made my mind.

I'm ready.

I got chills all over my body when I heard it,

so I decided to do that song.

('Billionaire' the first song?)

('Last Piece' the second song?)

(Two rooms are next to each other)

(Two completely different songs! What will HWISEO choose?)

Ta-da!

(HWISEO chose 'Last Piece')

I'm going to 'Last Piece'. I got goosebumps when I first heard it.

Please let me be the main vocalist!

[Main vocalist, HWISEO]

You need to choose a song and a part.

A part?

By myself?

That's hard.

(They must choose a song and a part they want)

Sub vocalist 3 is charming,

but so is the main vocalist.

What should I do?

(HWISEO wants the main vocalist)

(Which member will choose 'Last Piece' next?)

(ELLY is next to puzzle)

I'm scared to go in.

'Billionaire'.

'Last Piece'.

ELLY is here.

ELLY, you should come here!

(ELLY's fan)

Many viewers really liked my voice combined with ELLY's,

so I wish ELLY would come to 'Last Piece' as well.

(What will ELLY choose?)

Whoa.

Whoa.

HWISEO is here!

I knew you'd choose here.

I kept saying I wanted you here.

When I entered, I saw HWISEO.

I was really happy.

[Sub vocalist 1, Elly]

Let's pretend no one is here.

I'll be quiet.

Someone is here.

(Next is YEOREUM)

(Let's see)

Over there, this time.

(What does YEOREUM want?)

It's so cool. This is so hip hop.

(Hip hop style 'Billionaire'?)

This song is charming.

(Charming 'Last Piece'?)

(YEOREUM chose 'Last Piece')

It was YEOREUM.

You're all here!

We connected!

We did 'i DGA' together.

Right.

(The three performed together for the semi final)

We must share the same taste.

(Three are already filled up)

(KEI is next to puzzle)

I have no idea about KEI.

What will I choose?

I'll go to 'Last Piece'.

Last Piece' was it from the intro.

I got chills. And the dance was crazy.

(She puts her part as well)

The parts keep overlapping.

I want the main vocalist part.

I believe I'm a confident main vocalist.

(KEI and HWISEO want the main vocalist part)

- 7 members will be eliminated. - Right.

I don't know what will happen,

but I still want the main vocalist part.

Where am I?

(YEEUN is next)

The song I chose is

'Last Piece'.

This will be the last performance in QUEENDOM PUZZLE.

I wanted to give a fun performance

and show a new side of me.

(Dohwa)

(8 members chose 'Last Piece')

No one went to 'Billionaire'.

No one.

This can't be happening.

I didn't know this would happen.

(Who will puzzle next?)

Who is it?

Do I just go in?

I think NANA will go there.

I agree.

I love it already.

From the beginning, NANA only worked with La Chica.

(Will she choose La Chica's dance again?)

Where should I go?

(!!!)

(What did NANA choose?)

Oh, my!

(NANA chose 'Billionaire')

What?

Huh?

Really?

NANA went there.

('Billionaire': 1 / 'Last Piece': 8)

Guys.

I'm so lonely.

NANA, do a solo!

Performing solo is scary.

You can do it!

(All-Rounder battle all over again?)

I hope others will come soon.

(YUKI puzzles next)

YUKI.

Will she come here?

I can't make my mind.

(NANA is alone in 'Billionaire')

(others are crammed in 'Last Piece')

(YUKI)

(YUKI chooses 'Last Piece')

In 'Last Piece', the main rapper starts in the center.

(Main rapper is in the center in the intro)

I want to be the main rapper.

(SUYUN is next)

Who is it?

How can I choose it all now?

So hard.

SUYUN.

I think she'll go there.

I agree.

(Come, SUYUN)

I'd be so happy to do it with SUYUN.

(SUYUN and NANA performed together 3 times)

What should I do?

There?

Please come, SUYUN.

(SUYUN chose 'Last Piece')

I didn't see that coming.

We're so many.

Stop coming!

My gosh.

(JIHAN enters next)

What is this?

JIHAN.

If JIHAN and I team up again,

we were in the same team for all battles.

(7 vs 7 Team Battle)

(Re-mix Battle)

(All-Rounder Battle)

(They were in the same team even in the semi-finals)

I think she'll come here.

(Is NANA, her QUEENDOM PUZZLE twin, right?)

She's coming.

NANA!

Awesome.

NANA!

Put it in there.

Daebak.

Just the two of us?

We're together from the start to the end.

From the start!

They're doing the same song all along.

Their styles must match.

It's destiny.

(WOOYEON is next)

It's WOOYEON.

I think she'll come here.

WOOYEON, here.

I think she'll come here because she did "Bad Blood."

First of all...

First of all, the song I chose is...

(WOOYEON chose 'Billionaire')

It's two of us.

No way. Are they hiding?

Unni.

I thought everyone would be here.

Me, too.

Maybe the rest will go to 'Billionaire'.

Maybe. For the All-Rounder Battle, everyone went to Queendom Team later on.

Right.

This could be all of us.

('Billionaire': 3 / 'Last Piece': 10)

(Following members)

(MIRU/FYE/SOOJIN/RIINA)

(MIRU chose 'Last Piece')

(as well as FYE)

Last Piece'!

Hurry, hurry.

What's going on here?

Do we have to trio this?

You want sub vocalist 2?

Sub vocalist 2!

There are 5 members who want that part.

(In disbelief)

(Sub vocalist 2 -> JURI, SUYUN, MIRU, FYE, SOOJIN, RIINA)

(6 people want the sub vocalist 2 part)

There's a part you sing while walking in a line.

I got enchanted by the walking part.

How many are we?

This will be a war.

I really want the part.

I really want it.

I could feel that I'd do the part well.

(Who will get the sub vocalist 2 part for 'Last Piece'?)

(The door opens again)

(The youngest ZOA chose 'Last Piece' too)

Why are there so many people here?

ZOA, why didn't you come here?

Just put it below.

(Sitting in the front row)

(Knocks)

(BORA chose 'Last Piece')

There's so many people here.

Will we be okay?

It's 3 of us.

We'll be fine, right?

(Only 3 people in 'Billionaire')

(JIWON is to puzzle next)

- Who is it? - JIWON.

She's definitely coming here, huh?

I think she'll go there.

JIWON, over there.

(Everyone predicted JIWON's choice)

(But the trio keeps their hopes up)

(JIWON chose 'Billionaire')

Why is it so few of you?

- My gosh. - Unni.

I'm so thankful!

So unexpected.

They're PICK Team of 'Charismatic'.

'Charismatic'.

(JIHAN, NANA, JIWON, and WOOYEON were 'Charismatic' PICK Team)

We're the 'Charismatic' Team!

A deja-vu!

JIWON was the last?

No, YEONHEE.

YEONHEE is the last.

(YEONHEE is the last to puzzle)

- I'm curious. - Me, too.

I'll go now.

(What will YEONHEE choose in this unbalanced situation?)

(YEONHEE chose 'Billionaire')

What's this?

Really?

(Overjoyed here)

('Last Piece' ends up with 16 members)

We've surpassed the capacity.

('Billionaire' is also curious about insufficient number)

(They surpassed by far)

('Billionaire' is also curious about insufficient number)

After hearing the final mission song,

I longed to go to the finals even more.

I really want this.

If I go to the finals, I'll show more charming points.

I'll do my best until I become the 'Last Piece' of QUEENDOM PUZZLE.
