Gameplay

Format

Presented with a group of seven "mystery singers" identified only by their occupation, two opposing guest artists must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group without ever hearing them sing, assisted by clues and a celebrity panel over the course of three rounds. At the end of the game, the last remaining mystery singers are revealed each as either good or bad by means of a duet between them and one of the guest artists.[1][2]

Under the versus format, both opponents can eliminate one singer each in the first two rounds, and then both can choose one singer each to join the final performance in the third round. At the end of the game, the conditions for mystery singers chosen by opposing guest artists depending on the outcome of a final performance, if:

  1. One guest artist has chosen a "good singer" and the other one has chosen a "bad singer"; or
  2. Both two guest artists have chosen a "good singer" or a "bad singer".

Rewards

  • If one guest artist has a good singer, he/she wins 50.000.000. In case of a tie (as both opponents have good singers), the same amount becomes split in half, leaving with ₫25.000.000 each. Both winning singers, regardless of being good or bad, receive ₫10.000.000 each.
  • Since the fifth season, the eliminated good singer gets a consolation prize of ₫2.000.000.
