How the Competition Works
The Singer competition has different rounds. Singers perform each week. Their goal is to get high rankings to stay in the show.
Qualifying Rounds
In these rounds, singers perform to show their skills. The first episode of Singer 2018 was a qualifying round. It was filmed on January 3, 2017, and aired on January 12, 2018.
Knockout Rounds
After the qualifying rounds, the knockout rounds begin. In these rounds, singers with the lowest votes might be eliminated. For example, in the first knockout round, Juno Su joined as a challenger. Li Xiaodong was eliminated because he had the lowest votes over the first two matches.
Challenge Rounds
New singers can join the competition in challenge rounds. If a new singer (a "challenger") performs well enough, they can stay. If they succeed, another singer might be eliminated. James Li joined in the first challenge round. Juno Su successfully challenged, and Sam Lee was eliminated.
New Singers Join
Throughout the season, new singers join the competition. For example, Hua Chenyu joined in the second qualifying round. These new singers add excitement and new challenges for the existing contestants.
Behind the Scenes
Getting Ready for the Show
After Singer 2017 finished, there were rumors that the show would stop. People thought Singer would not be made anymore after 2018. There were a few reasons for these rumors:
- It was hard to plan and broadcast Singer 2017.
- It was getting harder to find new singers to join the show.
- The main director, Duyan, and screenwriter, Sunli, were planning to leave.
However, on June 14, 2017, the show's producer, Hong Tao, gave an interview. He said that Singer 2018 was already being planned. This news proved the rumors were false!
