Gameplay The game is played in two phases, featuring two opposing teams — a team of four guest artists (known as "stars") and a team of mystery singers performing in batches (known as "invaders").
Rounds Lip sync phase Each mystery singer performs a lip sync to a song; good singers mime to a recording of their own, while bad singers mime to a backing track by another vocalist. After the "stage of truth" performances, they are now allowed to talk freely.
If the guest artists guessed the mystery singer right, they get points depending on batch, otherwise the mystery singers did the same points have if they guessed wrong.
Dark horse A "surprise" mystery singer dubbed the "dark horse" () is appeared on the "stage of truth"; the highest-scoring team or both of two (if the game ends in a tie) would have do the same mechanic as the lip sync solo phase. The winning team is determined on two different conclusions: If either guest artists or mystery singers guessed the "dark horse" right, they win ; if either guessed them wrong, their money is given to the opposing team instead. As for the mystery singers, that same money is distributed into 18 players, with ≈ each. If both teams guessed the "dark horse" right, that same money is split and would receive each, with ≈ per player on the mystery singers' side.
