Singer Enoch has made a strong impression by securing a victory despite extreme tension on MBN's '2025 Korea-Japan Singer Battle'.
The broadcast on the evening of the 9th showcased an epic stage, befitting the scale of this unprecedented national singing competition. Enoch, who took the stage after Takuya, candidly shared his feelings: "I was so nervous I couldn't sleep. I just wanted to finish the performance quickly."
However, once his stage concluded, Jin Hae-sung exclaimed, "Your voice is so good. The resonance is powerful," while Lyn praised, "I was impressed by the high-level interpretation of the song. I felt your potential to deeply engage the audience." Meanwhile, Kangnam offered encouragement to Takuya, saying, "I think you're better than anyone, but your somewhat timid confidence was a bit disappointing." The showdown between Enoch and Takuya concluded with Enoch winning 67 to 33.
