Jin-woo realizes that he dropped Soo-hyun's name card when he got into a car accident. Even after finding out that Jin-woo hurts himself whenever he's anxious, Soo-hyun continues to train him. On the day of the audition, Soo-hyun and Jun-seok change their plan and make Jin-woo sing in a low pitch.

The reason for Yoon-hee's tragic death is revealed. Hyun-chul is more determined to bring Soo-hyun down after hearing that Jin-woo has passed the audition. Hence, he meets the producer of the show and forces him to eliminate Jin-woo. Meanwhile, Shim Jin-woo gets into trouble, so Yoo Jin-woo leaves the dorm to help him, putting him at risk of getting eliminated from "Star Rise".
