Before Royal Pirates performed on stage, they were interviewed regarding the performances displayed today and their feelings towards tonight’s results.

Q: So could you tell us about what you think about tonight’s results?

Moon: Well yes um, we all became big fans of Wengdyy. We were really happy with the results. But Brian really killed the show too. We don’t know what to expect-

James: In a good way.

Moon: Yeah in a good way. He killed it. So yeah. We were like, “Is it gonna be Brian or Wengdyy?” and then they won and we both were like, wow.

Q: They both were overwhelming favourites. So what do you think Brian’s performance? What does it take that Wengdyy have done better than him?

James: I think Wengdyy has her value as an artist, she’s very unique and she has a colour that comes across very honest. So I think that’s what touches people as well as her tone is very, um, almost haunting. It’s a very epic scale type of charisma that she has. We’re excited to see how she can do in the future.

Moon: I think Wengdyy has that style that really, you know, touches people in a good way. (Laughs)

Exsy: I also think that she has definitely has a great presence on stage. I think she’s very charismatic and she’s very unique in her own way. And I love how she has like her personal colour of music. I think Brian was stable throughout the whole show while Wengdyy has that one point where she wows everybody.

 Q: You guys have been them performing from the semi-finals till today. Besides the two of them, do you guys think that anyone gave you any surprise tonight? Or rather the most improved?

Moon: I think Brian. Because at first Brian stood up to me that much, but as the show goes on and he kept on improving and tonight he improved so much that he became a possible winner. So I was really proud of him and it was a pleasant surprise that he improved so much.

James: Um, I think the same thing and also Steve, I like how she chose her songs this time and she was able to show her strengths a little more. I wanna say more about Wengdyy. I noticed that during the song where she wore the white dress, there was like a malfunction. They were trying to put it on the back and they pushed her while she was singing and she was still stable. There was maybe like two or three seconds before the lift went up so I was really impressed how she didn’t even get fazed by that and she did it like a professional as this is a competition. That’s really interesting. Very proud.

Exsy: I want give a prize to everybody because everybody is a winner. I think everybody worked hard and improved a lot. I was very proud of each and every one of them so everybody is a winner.

 Royal Pirates started performing their hit songs “Drawing The Line” and “Dangerous” at 00:25AM, followed by Taiwanese superstar Bii with “都是你害的” and “Love More” and ended with a group performance at 01:00AM.
