After Episode 1, the following “Favorite Members”were chosen for each team:
‘Be Mine’ Team
Preferred Member: Noh Gi Hyeon

‘Breathless’ Team

The group, also referred to as the “Ace Team,”successfully lived up to both fans’ and judges’ expectations as they delivered a strong and impressive first performance.
