The panel went over the process that the producers of the show went through in order to cast Lee Soo. Kang Yong Suk revealed that in order to get Lee Soo on the show, the producers first approached Lee Soo personally. However, when they were rejected, the producers called Lyn in the middle of the night and asked her to convince Lee Soo to appear on the show.

After listening to the process, Heo Ji Woong commented, "How can you forcefully drop someone from the show after bothering him at night to appear on the show when he didn't want to do it."�

He also added, "I heard that the filming went well too. He even placed second in the initial competition."�Park Ji Yoon then said, "The way for a singer to beat a controversy is through their own profession, and I feel as though the producers should have protected him at least for the first episode."�

Lee Soo was previously embroiled in a controversy for soliciting an underage prostitute.
