In the last showdown, the Top 6 ― Lee Ji-hoon, Hong Seung-min, Song Ji-woo, Cheon Beom-seok, Lee Ye-ji and Choi Eun-bin ― will deliver show-stopping performances as they vie for the title.
From Lee’s soul-stirring vocals and Hong’s red-hot momentum to Song’s dreamy allure, Cheon’s prodigious talent, Jeju-born standout Lee Ye-ji, and Choi’s deep, resonant tone, each finalist brings a distinct color to the stage. Anticipation is sky-high to see how they’ll script the finale.
Because it all comes down to tonight, a 300-member “Top Ears” audience panel will be on site to cast pivotal votes. Real-time text voting during the live broadcast will also count, combining in-person and nationwide participation to crown a true public favorite.
Representatives from the Top Ears panel ― who have followed the contestants up close from Round 1 with steady cheers, candid reactions and constructive advice ― will share final thoughts with the Top 6 on the big night.
Ahead of the finale, "The Ballad of Us" hosted a sold-out watch party on Nov. 25 at Megabox Mokdong, filling all 300 seats with fans from teens to their 70s. Attendees took home signed photo cards and merch, while the Top 6 mixed it up with the crowd: Lee Ye-ji indulged a fan request with a splash of Jeju dialect, and Song Ji-woo and Hong Seung-min treated the audience to an impromptu live set.
The live finale of SBS’ "The Ballad of Us" ― featuring the Top 6 of Lee Ji-hoon, Hong Seung-min, Song Ji-woo, Cheon Beom-seok, Lee Ye-ji and Choi Eun-bin ― airs tonight (Dec. 2) at 9 p.m. KST, when the winner will be revealed.
