*standing ovation*
On paper, these song choices are way overdone and get boring to hear over and over again, but honestly you guys kind of killed it and arguably the 2 of the best vocals of these songs I’ve ever heard, so great job both of you. You both brought it.
I know Ari was kind of upset with both of you for posting without checking in with her first, but I do think these vocals were so stellar that there wouldn’t be much disagreement from either end honestly. Not promoting ignoring your coach, you guys should know it’s preferred to keep contact with them, but this is one case it worked out in.
Ok-Hwa, I didn’t spot a single vocal error in your performance, and that is one hard song
But The Winner, you did stellar too, and you had a lot of emotion in that and everything..
This is a pretty even battle... I’d say The Winner changed up some of the arrangement at times, so that could be deemed the ball being in her court, but I don’t know it’s a draw to me, both of you picked great Whitney songs and nailed it, maybe I’d say Ok-Hwa chose first and The Winner picking such a similar song could be seen as some strategic play, idk there’s a lot of criteria and both of you went above and beyond it
All up to Ari tbh!
