Finally, the top 10 finalists will battle each other to become the TOP 8. 100 panel audience were picked by Kpop Star production. It's always better to get opinion from the viewers. So basically, what happened is that the finalists were divided into Group A and Group B. There are 5 team in each group and two teams from each group would be the elimination candidates. The panel audience has the right to choose who they think did better and deserve to be in the TOP 8.

Group A
1-Seo Yae An (Hyorin - Closer)
She was extremely nervous this time around. She choose ballad over dance song. She said she will regret it if she didn't try out ballad and keep singing dance song. I guess she wants to prove to herself that she is a good singer. But the unfamiliar environment and pressure are too much for her. She end up tearing on stage before she even starts singing. Luckily the judges are so nice that they let her calm down first.

2-Esther Kim (2NE1 - Come Back Home)
#MyMonologue: Hang on a minute! Esther is much younger than Yae An?!
JYP commented that the only thing preventing Esther from winning is she can't express her emotions freely. Esther decided that she wants to show something new. This song is especially dedicated for her dad who has passed away when she was 11. Her dad died from a heart attack. Aww.. Knowing this already bring tears to my eyes.. That's ok, your dad is in a better place now Esther. Well, her performance is just amazing. She arranged the song really well.

Group B
1 - Seung Hwan Jung ( Kim Kwang Seok - Those Days)
He choose this song because his mother loves this song. It's the first time that his mother listen to him singing on stage, so he was excited to choose the song. But then he realizes that the song is actually hard to sing. He was still trying to figure out the feeling that the singer has when he sings it. I'm always impressed that he always try to understand the song by feeling it and not just singing it. I think he did a great job doing that.
2 - Grace Shin ( Lee Hyo Ri - 10 Minutes)
Grace said she has been singing slow beat song before this, so she wants to show a new side of her by picking Lee Hyo Ri's song. She was praised by the judges. #MyThought: I don't really understand what so good about her performance though. Sorry, Grace.. Not that because I don't like her but her singing style is not to my liking =P
3 - Lily M. (2NE1 - It's Hurt)
She was asked since when she started music, and she said it was since she's 8 years old. That time, her neighborhood was affected by a massive bushfire. She lost some of her teachers and friends and some of her friends end up being an orphan too. It must be a terrifying incident for her. She said she was so scared to go out of her house especially when it's windy. So her mother said, she started singing because it helps her cope up with the healing process. Awww.. It's heart-breaking to know that under her bright image, there's a painful past. But I hope she don't think too much about it and try to move on with life, just like what she's doing now.
Katie said she wants to redeem herself since the judges had commented that she seems to be lack of energy. She is really thankful to YG for giving her another chance and for believing in her. You MUST watch her performance! She did an amazing job that even JYP gives a standing ovation for her.
5 - Park Yoon Ha (Yoo Jae Ha - Holding you in my arms)
What a bad luck she has.. She has to performed after Katie Kim so I can see that she starts to doubt herself. Even she feels that she would be the last in the group, since Group B is filled with the most talented finalists. Well, the song that she choose is something that she always enjoy singing. Her living room is full with music instruments because of her mother loves for music. Her mother would play the piano while she would sing along.
Result for Group B:
1st : Katie Kim
2nd : Grace Shin
3rd : Jung Seung Hwan
*Lily M. and Park Yoon Ha were the possible elimination candidates.
#MyThought: Both of them did really well and even the judges had a hard choosing the last two places. But I think both of them would be saved by the panel audience.. hopefully.. Because I don't think they have to choose who to eliminate in each group, right? I hope not..
#MyRanking: 1) Katie Kim, 2) Lily M., 3) Jung Seung Hwan, 4) Park Yoon Ha, 5) Grace Shin.
THE LAST 2 TO JOIN TOP 10: Lily M. and Park Yoon Ha! 51 out of 106 voted for Lily! Yeay~
