To further keep the contestants' identities top secret, only eight members of the production team have been entrusted with their true identities. Every week, before each performance, a video clip will be revealed to the audience as a clue for the identity of each contestant.

In the end of the show, one contestant with the lowest rank will be eliminated based on the marks percentage given by the panelist. His or her face will then be revealed for the first time.
