ERIC [ HOST ]: Welcome back everyone. You are gathered here as I announce the results from the final elimination before the finale. There are 23 of you here now, but by the end of tonight, only 18 will continue on.

~~~~~

MAYTARSIT MOONPHIAH [ ?? ]: I was lucky enough to get by the previous elimination. I'm afraid my luck has run out and my efforts won't be noticed, resulting in my elimination.

YU JIANHONG [ ?? ]: Honestly, all I can say is that I'm absolutely terrified.

~~~~~

ERIC [ HOST ]: You've all done well but is it enough for the national producers? I'd like to remind you not to get too cocky if you've received high scores, as it can change in a matter of a second. Same goes for those losing hope while at lower placements.

ERIC [ HOST ]: Now, I will begin by announcing the trainee in 17th place, leaving the cutting point of 18th for the end. He's actually a trainee who's consistently been in the top 9 for the past eliminations...

~~~~~

YOON BYUNGHO [ ?? ]: There are quite a few trainees who've been in the top 9 for both eliminations. I'm terrified it'll be me who's dropped.

KIM JAEYONG [ ?? ]: I'm so curious as to who it could be.

PARK CHUNGJAE [ 17 ]: Ah, as much as I'm disappointed in my drop in the ranks, I'm just glad I wasn't eliminated. Thank you to everyone who has supported me thus far, I love you all!

[ several ranks later ]

ERIC [ HOST ]: I shall now announce the trainee in 14th place. Once again, it may come as a surprise when considering this trainee's previous ranks.

~~~~~

NOH HYUNJOON [ ?? ]: Will another trainee from the top 9 drop?

UEDA TAKAO [ ?? ]: Just hearing the ranks he's mentioned, I already know the ranks changed drastically for many.
