A trot men's and women's death match unfolds in episode 14 of MBN's variety show 'The Man Who Became a Legend.' The biggest viewing point of this broadcast is the 'teacher-student showdown' in which singer Sungri faces off on stage against Geum Jandi, who was her professor in college.
The lineup of contestants alone draws attention. The 'Unknown Legend' TOP7—Sungri, Haru, Jang Hanbyul, Hwang Yoonseong, Jung Yeonho, Lee Changmin, and Irune—along with Shin Seungtae and Na Taeju, form the Warrior Team, while Ban Gahui, Geum Jandi, Jung Miae, Stephanie, Eun Gaeun, Gu Sugyeong, Jang Hyeri, Kim Taeyeon, and Bin Yeseo compete as the Women's Kingdom Team.

She then shared what Jo Seonghwan is really like off-camera, bringing laughter to the set.
In addition, Haru sang 'You Look Like a Rose,' showing off her fresh charm, and trot prodigy Sindong appeared as the Warrior Team's hidden card, energizing the stage. After watching Sindong's performance, Jung Miae reacted, "I thought our youngest was good at singing, but..."
