tvN variety show 'KILL IT: Style Creator War' is ramping up the tension as it enters the main round 4.

In the 9th episode, 11 contestants from the Black Label (Go Ye-jin, Yoyo, Ji-won), White Label (Kim Na-ra, Bella Wooyoung, Lee Soo-min, Choi Min-a-soo), and Red Label (Kim Ji-hoon, Naya Washi, Dasha, Jae-in) will take on a new mission.

The core mission of this episode is the 'Movement Couple Photoshoot.' Contestants must pair up with six male dancers specializing in various genres—contemporary dance, ballet, Korean traditional dance, Latin dance, hip-hop, and vogueing—to complete a photoshoot.

During the shoot, 'Transit Love 4' cast member Jo Yu-sik made a surprise appearance as a contemporary dancer, capturing viewers' attention. Notably, Jo Yu-sik and 'Single's Inferno 5' alum Choi Min-a-soo took the stage together, generating significant buzz.

The contestants' reactions to the male dancers' appearance were explosive. Dasha exclaimed, 'Is this a dating show? Why are men suddenly appearing?' unable to hide her surprise, while Go Ye-jin commented, 'It's a total dopamine rush.'

Choi Min-a-soo revealed that she comes from a dance club background, confidently stating, 'I'm really good at isolation.' However, as the mission got underway, the tension mounted rapidly. Struggling under pressure, she showed emotional volatility, tearing up and saying, 'I don't think I can do well in this mission. Am I going to get eliminated again like this? I'm so stressed.'

Meanwhile, the contestants simultaneously take on the 'Style Race' mission. They must complete styling that matches the vibe of each location within a 30-minute time limit, then handle filming, editing, and submission before boarding a bus. The rules are brutal: anyone who fails to board within the designated time faces immediate elimination.

'KILL IT: Style Creator War' is a survival program aimed at discovering next-generation style icons who will lead K-fashion trends. Contestants with significant social media influence—including global fashion brand ambassadors, world-class models, and super influencers—compete against one another. Jang Yoon-ju, Lee Jong-won, TXT's Yeonjun, Cha Jung-won, Shin Hyun-ji, Ahn A-reum, and Yang-gaeng appear as mentors.

Episode 9 airs on the 7th at 10:10 PM.
