- Round 2: Ranking Audition (Airdate: December 6 – 27, 2015)
- Contestants who pass the first round are put into groups with others that are most similar to their singing style. The whole group can pass, fail, or a selected few can pass. Each contestant gets to have one-on-one training with Park Jin-young, Yang Hyun-suk, or You Hee-yeol.

- Round 5: Battle Audition (Airdate: February 7 – 21, 2016)
