Episode 11 of "Tinh Ha Say Hi" closed the elimination stage and opened the final stage with many changes in the lineup.
The most notable is the return of Jsol. After having to stop playing with Hyo, Ivan, Ali Hoang Duong and Kimlong in the previous round, the male singer was given the opportunity to return thanks to the voting results from the audience.
Jsol's appearance raised the number of artists entering the final to 16 people. This is also one of the biggest changes of the program before the final stage, because the lineup just formed after Livestage 4 continues to have to be rearranged.
Before announcing the results, episode 11 spent most of the time on lighter activities after two emotional qualifying rounds. The artists wore pajamas, chatted, talked about their impressions of each other and participated in some games.
In his sharing, Wean mentioned Ali Hoang Duong and said that his senior gave him a lot of motivation. Congb talked about the pressure he experienced in the competition, while Phap Kieu praised Duong Domic for his professional attitude.
Tran Thanh also emphasized the professional element and the ability to look back at oneself of artists after each round of competition. According to the male MC, professional experience and attitude will continue to change as each person grows up.
After the break, the program announced 4 team leaders based on rankings. Quang Hung MasterD topped, followed by Duong Domic, CoolKid and buitruonglinh.
The team formation process then changed continuously. Quang Hung MasterD chose Wean, Xuan Dinh Ky and Son. K. Duong Domic received Captain Boy, Jaysonlei and Cody Nam Vo. Buitruonglinh had Hurrykng, Congb and Jsol, while CoolKid created a lineup with Wren Evans, Phap Kieu and Dang Hong Hai.
However, the lineup did not stop there. A new rule requires each team leader to temporarily separate a member from the team before entering the final song selection round. Quang Hung MasterD separated Son. K, buitruonglinh chose Congb, Duong Domic separated Jaysonlei and CoolKid chose Phap Kieu.
The teams then participated in 3 games to accumulate points. Quang Hung MasterD once temporarily led, but the final result reversed when the buitruonglinh team rose to first place. Quang Hung MasterD team ranked second, Duong Domic third and CoolKid last.
This ranking determines the right to choose a song for the final round. Team buitruonglinh chose "Thêu hoa dệt gấm", Quang Hung MasterD chose "Trễ giờ cơm", Duong Domic received "Sau hình bóng khác", and CoolKid performed "Bức tranh tháng 6".
According to the program's announcement, the final will include 16 solo performances and 4 group performances. After Livestage 4 with the participation of international producers, the final stage continues to exploit songs with materials and images that evoke Vietnamese culture in a modern approach.
With Jsol's return, 4 captains are identified and the entire squad continues to be shuffled, episode 11 mainly plays the role of transitioning from the qualifying round to the final stage. After an episode to reduce competition pressure, the competition will return when 16 artists enter the performances that determine the final ranking.
