On March 11th, the remaining nine contestants on SBS' 'K-Pop Star' participated in another audition battle to decide who would move on to the next round.

This week's competition was even more intense than the previous one as all nine participants gave their all to protect their spots. �However, it the end, contestant Lee Ha Yi grabbed first place with the most points while Kim Na Yoon came in last, becoming completely eliminated from the show.

After hearing the results, Kim Na Yoon couldn't hold back her tears and left the stage with a respectful speech. �"I learned so much during my time on 'K-Pop Star'. �It was a good experience", she said.

Just like the previous episode, today's show was broadcasted live. �First, contestant Park Jae Hyung stepped onto the stage to perform his own version of Britney Spear's "Toxic". �His performance was more aggressive and powerful than his previous auditions; to emphasize the rock theme, Park Jae Hyung sported a black jacket, punctured with metallic buttons.

Next up was Kim Na Yoon. �Unlike her previous performances that were more upbeat and energetic, this time Kim Na Yoon went for a softer piece by Adele. �After listening to her performance of "Set Fire to the Rain", Yang Hyun Suk was a little disappointed and commented that Kim Na Yoon was not ready to perform songs by Adele.

Next, Baek Ji Woong wowed the audience with his rendition of Lee Moon Sae's country song, "In the Rain". �Contestant, Baek Ah Yeon also impressed viewers through a relaxing performance of Jo Sung Mo's "Do you know?".

Contestant Lee Sung Hoon who has often been praised for being a remarkable dance choreographer once again had the audience at the edge of their seats when he performed a re-modified version of Cho Young Pil's classic, "Short Hair". �He added some of his own flavor into the song by including rap lyrics and a comedic dance choreography.

Singer/Song-writer, Yoon Hyun Sang also chose a song by Lee Moon Sae and blew the audience away by performing "Whistle". �In addition, both Park Ji Min and Michelle Lee also performed songs under the same artist. �The two contestants awed the audience with a performance of Whitney Houston's "I have nothing" and "Run to You".
