transcript: [Check-In Camera] Good morning Today we're having our profile photos taken We're used to practicing every day, not to getting all made-up. We have to do well Day of the photoshoot Photographer KAMAZO Team A, doing smoothly on their photoshoot Team B, showing off their natural charm on their first-ever photoshoot Choreography: Youngster Krumping routine for WIN opening scene Broadcast simultaneously on Daum Mobile application This is their last and most important monthly assessment June's monthly assessment - Team A Team B Team B wins 15 to 10. Applause for Team B! Team B puts aside the competition and enjoys their victory Mr. Yang’s surprise for the dispirited Team A "Cheer up!" I’m so touched We have this tradition every new artist goes through It’s called ‘Battle’ I’ll be taking take you to JYP I never even imagined something like this It’s gonna be really fun JYP's trainees, however, are no easy match Why not, if Mr. Yang brought his All-Stars It’s a battle between YG and JYP. Literally. I called Mr. Park and said “let’s do this” We were drinking together and got a bit competitive. So I said “bring them tomorrow” Male solo vs male solo, Male group vs male group, Every artist or group went through “Battles” before they debuted During the past Battles, I thought Se7en clearly won When it was Big Bang and 2PM, Of course I think Big Bang topped them Yang Hyun-Suk! (In Korea, you call the person's
full name when you're angry at them) It’s a matter of pride between YG and JYP. We have to win. We absolutely have to. I think my boys will. I will select the participants on the spot tomorrow. It’s a chance to show what you’ve been working on at JYP. You could be one of the Battle participants, or stay as backup Once you’re selected, you have to win Make sure you win I’ll take a look at what you have ready, and give some feedback. Let’s go. My presence is like full base, Swing The ball goes over the fence Listen and remember this is war A roar to all those sly foxes out there Let’s get this battle started Ain’t nothing but a chicken fight you birds got on here I’m chilling here spectating, cajoling I’m the bad boy, B.I. Swag - David Banner Money Money Money – Red Cafe Love Song - Big Bang I hate this love song so I'll sing it with a smile I’ll go to you so you’re no longer lonely Forget You - Cee Lo Green For today, Team B is better. They look natural. I got the impression they were ‘having fun’ It felt like they were singing their own song You, A, looked like you were singing Big Bang’s song Like a cover band, like a karaoke version. Pretending like you’re having fun when you’re really not You looked like kids who were wearing their elder brother's clothes I don’t mind if Team A changes to a different song If you don’t want to change it, don't sing it like Big Bang does. The Battle’s tomorrow, so practice And give me a video update. It feels like ‘Dojo busting’ I’ve really wanted to try that since some time. But I was surprised we were going to do it in real life It’s kind of exciting It’ll be cutthroat. Seriously Will I do well? What did I say just now? You said that we have to win no matter what I said “Beat them to a pulp” Beat or be beaten. It's one or the other See you tomorrow. Seung-Yoon is looking depressed I was even more nervous ever since hearing about the Battle against JYP You know, Mr. Park… Right, remember when Seung-Yoon was at Super Star K? I bet you have a wonderful voice Why do you keep changing it like this? Can’t you listen to your own voice? Everyone’s voice sounds very good I have a bit of a trauma against Mr. Park He scolded me a lot and... I still remember it like it was yesterday It must feel pretty bad If you went to the Battle and just ended up as backups. It’s even a competition to enter the Battle That’s just so cruel I’d hate that, going there and not being able to compete I think that would be even harder than losing a monthly assessment I don’t want to lose ground in my area 12 hours to the Battle against JYP If we rap together We’ll get more of a synergy We always wanted to try that If Mr. Yang says it’s fine – he might allow
the four of us compete as a team The two team’s rappers are making plans to work together It’s the perfect tune to provoke them See if we can put in some provocation into the lyrics Right on! Hands together, come on. Let’s go with this but change the intro a little We’ve been thinking about getting the four rappers together since a while I think we will win the rap part for sure We are better than JYP in rapping, at least Team B’s vocal session is going well What did Mr. Park say? He said his guys will beat us We refuse to be beaten! Team A’s singing was reviewed badly by Mr. Yang They must change their song just one day before the Battle Team A sings through rival JYP’s tracks one by one We can show some emotion through this track While showing some YG spirit with "Baby Good Night" I think something like that will be advantageous We’re thinking about Mr. Park’s "I Have a Girl" Let’s try this, and then make adjustments I’m a bit worried about Jinwoo I’ve only listened to it, but never actually sung it It's hard Jinwoo keeps on getting the lyrics wrong “After I met you I feel the faith in my heart breaking” You’re not thinking about the emotions in the song,
that's why you keep getting them wrong Jinwoo's the type who needs a lot of
practice before he gets the song perfectly But right now, we just don’t have the time I have to get it. Even if it takes all night… The YG trainees pull an all-nighter The day of the Battle against JYP [Check-Out Camera] It’s 9:50 AM We literally haven’t slept a wink I think we can win against JYP Of course The Rapper Team films a video to get permission to work as a team "JYP trainee" No bad feelings, no bad feelings Video recording complete Which team will be competing against JYP? 30 minutes to the Battle with JYP The YG trainees are relaxed and singing JYP songs Meanwhile, Jinwoo just keeps going over the lyrics We’re almost there Honestly, I’m kind of nervous Me too Just a bit Silence please Rappers, let’s go through the lyrics one more time Listen carefully this is a diss in your face Don’t think about the words, just follow your lips Anxiety grows as the teams draw closer to JYP Will they get through the Battle? It’s been almost ten years since I last came to JYP Let’s go beat them! YG's determined troops head towards JYP The trainees open fire with their ‘Hellos’ There have been two Battles so far One between Rain and Se7en One between 2PM and Big Bang. This is the third one What I want you to know is that No matter who did better at Battle, All four of them became stars Right So keep that in mind, and give it your best I’ll judge JYP today and JYP will judge YG It’s an occasion for us to objectively evaluate each other
As
much as it is a Battle between us two Shall we get started? Round 1: Rap We at JYP have three rappers today Come on out Jackson, Young-hyun, and Mark Mark’s from LA, Jackson from Hong Kong, And I’m from Toronto, Canada I think we’ll be better at the American swag game The rappers from both Team A and B look on anxiously Drop It Like It's Hot - Lyrics by JYP trainees (Music: Snoop Dogg) My rap is taekwondo you’re the breaking tiles Runnin’ and runnin’ I'm a train without breaks Can’t even buy this swagger I got on Bow to me like it’s New Year and I’ll throw you some change Like a dragon spits fire I spit rap The King returns like Obiwan Workin’ and cruisin’ like I’m Kobe on court King of the track, reppin’ the JY Cut you with the 3-year blade I’ve been workin’ Classy triple hater’s hate it's nothing You, knocked down with my exploding punchlines Music is my compass I live like it’s my last day Keep your eyes on me everybody Don’t you dare stop me I should let you know that these two are not Korean So they’ve only started learning Korean Yes, it didn’t seem like a JYP rap Because you guys have a distinct rapping style I guess they sound so natural because they’ve lived abroad It was much better than what I’d expected At YG, nobody knows who will be competing yet Team A? Team B? The Rapper Team? Let’s have the Rappers from both A and B have a rap battle We were going to work as one under the YG name It felt odd It was actually better Of course there still was the competition between us at YG, But since we were up against JYP it
made us come together, feel more secure What - Lyrics by YG trainees (Music: YMGA) Let's have a brief introduction No lion, I got clear fundamentals Number nine in line but I’m like a full base hit, Swing The ball goes over the fence The batter’s gon’ be like, “what?” Burn you with Dupont, you be Red Hare I be Lu Bu That mound it’s your grave, so you gotta quit Listen carefully this is a diss in your face, get ready We're all ready so you better get your guards up JYP Everybody freestyle l'm a YG Man You guys ready? (B.I. suddenly starts to rap freestyle) We fly, look at us right above your heads So hot you can't touch this say bye bye So hot, hot hot Listen and remember this is war A roar to all those sly foxes out there You can’t even win at PlayStation Friday night I’ll have the winner’s flag in my right hand, you’ll have a bad pose You’ll never know the ill behind my growing up No matter what you try I’m num-locked I’m ready, got two hearts on, 21 century, let's fight one on one Just the way I’m feelin’, just the way the beat’s goin’ When I be flowin on a beat I feel like Galileo When I be on the mic I feel like Rakim or Bun B Don’t come at us JYP We got the showmanship like Moby These guys are just hilarious They’re hilarious Good work guys Hilarious… The three elements of rap are basically flow, Delivery, and lyrical content All three All three were met It was a flawless performance As for swagger, B.I’s feels great I didn't get any of my original lyrics, from start to end I just kept on saying whatever It was the worst B.I. did get through with freestyle rapping It will never happen again I’ll make sure of it Seunghoon just took the stage by storm Actually the style of rap I liked best was Who's the one with the cap? I'm Bobby Bobby’s from New York I’m a big fan of the lazy rapping style The kind that pushes back the lyrics He puts off the beat with ease And just raps his own way The style I like is definitely Bobby’s Making your opponent who’s in Battle with you get up And turning the mood festive That shows these guys’ immense talent I think YG won the rap section of the Battle Round 2: Dance JYP has 4 dancers this time Two of them are 17, so about Team B’s age The other two are 20, so about Team A’s age Since you’re similar in age, you'll all have fun Anyway, show us what you’ve got. Yu-kyum / BamBam / Mark / Jackson We’re JYP’s dance team We have a wide range of dance styles So I think our freestyle will be better than YG trainees' We’re really good-looking. Caught Up - Usher The trainees show off some unique JYP-style choreography You’re BamBam, right? While I was watching, the one that popped out was BamBam Thank you At the end, when Mark was tumbling and Jackson pushed him It was totally unexpected, and a really good idea Originally he is supposed to land on his knees But this time he was too nervous and landed on his legs JYP's highly skilled choreography Just like you flew through this small space I hope you can fly across a bigger stage later on Work hard, and I’ll see you again soon. Good work In JYP’s case, the teams are not perfectly formed But we have perfect teams, A and B So in a way, the Dance Section Will be the first proper team-to-team Battle It’s 3 o’clock, but I think I should practice just a bit harder I’d hate that, going there and not being able to compete I think that would be even harder than losing a monthly assessment Let’s have Team B’s choreography In singing, everyone gets their own part So your individuality matters a lot But in dance you don’t get your own part, it’s
all six or five of you working as one Teamwork is core So I decided to send Team B, whose teamwork is good The other team was flying on stage, but you guys can’t do that We’ll just crawl, sir Make it feel like you are flying. Okay, let’s go The motto - Drake
Choreography: Jabbawockeez / Mos wanted crew Team B shows off their teamwork through dance Bobby drops his hat Team B's dance is well received First of all, I’d like to say it’s good to see you again, Jun-hoe. I worried that you’d only improved your looks Which you really have, but You’ve also improved your skills You turned out great. I did notice one thing about both teams You’re too anxious to do well, and end up going ahead of the beat I mean that you don’t listen to the music You are too set on dancing well And can’t hear the music So you’re always on time or a bit too fast, which is a pity Same with our guys But the one person who’s riding the beat slowly is Bobby He has some guts, both in song and dance But it's his type that always makes trouble later on You’re not a troublemaker, are you? No, sir Where you outdo us is at teamwork Since you work as a team, how you
look out for each other, the teamwork It’s ahead of our guys, who aren’t in teams yet That was great Round 3: Vocals We are different from YG at the moment We haven’t decided on the grouping yet The five I have here all play an instrument professionally So let’s hear them out today Won-pil / Jun-hyuk / Seong-jin / Je-hyung / Young-hyun YG focuses on hip-hop So I think we can outdo them in singing At K-Pop Star, Mr. Yang kept on criticizing us harshly So today I want to make him change his mind Sleepless Rainy Night – Kim Gun Mo When I look out the window I feel blue I can’t console my heart, this sleepless night I don’t want sad songs, You keep coming back to me Awake from deep within my heart, I can’t sleep through this long, long night When it rains I sit alone by the window Singing with my guitar, the song you love When I look out the window I feel blue I can’t console my heart, this sleepless night On nights as rainy as tonight I meet you, in my loneliness And when this rain stops I will go and find you On nights as rainy as tonight I meet you, in my loneliness And when this rain stops I will go and find you You're the only one I noted Jae-hyung’s rapping style It’s very unique I’m sorry I mean you did better than I expected What Jinyoung and I always say is No matter how good or bad you perform You have to touch your viewers and listeners But your performance was a little short of making your audience sweat When you all breathe like a single person That’s when your audience will be surprised and impressed and you'll see success Good job I bet our vocalists have their hearts in their mouths Since they don’t know which team will be chosen I’ll ask the floor on whether they want
to see Team A or Team B Let's do it that way Team A’s average age is 20, and Team B’s 17 Raise your hand if you want to hear Team A You were like a cover band Pretending like you’re having fun when you’re really not Team B is better They look natural I think have a lot more vibe in out vocals I really wanted to compete If I come back not having performed anything,
my pride will go down the drain Raise your hand if you want to hear Team A Raise your hand if you want to hear Team A One, two, three, four, five, six Alright, let’s have Team A This could be the last Battle with JYP.
It was a pity I couldn't compete. It’s the first time I feel this empty. I’ve been scolded, sure But not even allowed to show what I’ve prepared, never. I was scared. Also nervous, because I was underprepared. I was just so nervous To the point I wondered whether I had ever been this nervous. Actually, up to the point we entered the building I thought about choosing Team B But then it struck me that this is a survival show And that even I myself am not interested in doing the expected Also, Kang Sung-Yoon basically has a trauma against Mr. Park For a trauma to go away, you have to be complemented by that person, Solve the problem with the one who triggered it That’s why I suddenly changed my mind I Have a Girl – Park Jinyoung
Baby Goodnight - GD & TOP Should I draw a picture of you when you're asleep Don’t play shy You’re already mine and mine only I don’t know but to me You’re too good for me You’re perfect and I thank you for being next to me Jinwoo's anxiety makes him forget the lyrics Jinwoo's mistake has dampened the mood I’m raging with anger It’s up in my throat They got the lyrics to Mr. Park’s song wrong right in front of him I’m just so sorry about that They did something they should never have done What I want the viewers to know is that It’s more nerve-racking to sing here than in front of thousands of people Right now, you’re sitting here, I’m here, all the trainees are here It must be the most difficult and nerve-racking stage ever Let’s take that into consideration I’ve never seen Seung-Yoon’s face turn so red I’m here singing in front of Mr. Park And I have a bit of a trauma from him About the trauma issue, I have no intention of being nice to you
YG boys just because there’s a camera here The same to my boys But I do want to praise Seung-Yoon for two reasons One: As a team, when Jinwoo made that mistake
you (Mr. Yang) didn’t cut him out You probably wanted to see how they reacted Then Seung-Yoon got it and started singing Because he realized something was wrong, that Jinwoo forgot his lyrics. That was great Seung-Yoon helps Jinwoo, who forgot his lyrics Secondly, I remember all the comments I made to Seung-Yoon You used to squeeze your voice, and that completely disappeared Probably thanks to YG’s training It’s amazing how you’ve lost all those bad vocal habits There’s no flaw in your singing And Tae-hyun has this talent His talent and vibe are excellent For Jinwoo, I feel sorry But I know how it feels to be that nervous But if you make one mistake at the 100th
time, you won’t make one on your 200th I hope today’s experience works as a cure. Way to go! Thank you Both YG and JYP trainees got through the Battle If you had to choose between Team A and B, based on today’s performance I feel empathy for Team A They have this desperation in their eyes, and B is more relaxed I feel heartache for the boys at Team A But if I had to make an investment with all my money Team B It was the same with Rain and Se7en, 2PM and Big Bang My conclusion today is ‘they’re so similar’ The key is preparation, how hard they work from now on You did worse than usual, didn’t you? Even I feel embarrassed, how must you feel Have a good rest today and let’s pick up practicing tomorrow It was a long day today. We were given a good opportunity I feel so sorry to Mr. Yang To the other members, to the guys at Team B I’ll have to make more effort, practice more That’s the only way there is I think it was a good experience for them
in order to enter the world of pros Even after all that practice, you make mistakes You do worse than you expected – this is reality This is the world of professionals. From now they’ll have to go through and overcome countless similar performances In order to become true professionals WIN's 1st Battle
Team A with Taeyang vs. Team B with GD He’s doing this to me and Jiyong again.
I feel terrible Taeyang, even his name is overwhelming.
I have to win this time It’s not bad, but it’s not good either I feel like I just got a load on my shoulders You need to think about what you want to show people I’m worried that there will be more drawbacks
