Admission Evaluation (Episodes 1–3)
After the producers in the Producer Zone watch the Admission Evaluation performances of the boys who enter in order, they will evaluate them with an 'O' or 'X'.
If they're chosen by all the producers, Rank 1.
If they're chosen by two or three producers, Rank 2.
If they're chosen by only one or none of the producers, Rank 3. These contestants' admission will be on hold for the time being and are elimination candidates.
Bold numbers are contestants whose performances were partially or entirely unaired on during episode broadcast. Full version of the performances will be released on Naver TV after the entrance evaluation ends.
