1276-615: The Eurovision Song Contest began to phase in public televoting to determine its winner, with a mass rollout beginning in 1998 .

1856-429: The choice of "producers" (the six-member panel) as they were selected based on industry experience and expertise, rather appearing merely to boost viewership. Commentators and industry observers noted that Phantom Singer was met with negativity from traditionalist factions of the classical music community but was enthusiastically embraced by the younger generation of classically trained singers. The enthusiasm arose from

1914-499: The classical crossover genre to the South Korean public and popularizing it. It also increased interest and awareness of the bel canto style of singing more commonly used in classical repertoire, especially opera.

1972-494: The contestant with the lowest number of collective votes are considered for elimination. The producers have a meeting to decide which of the candidates should be kept in the competition and which ones should be eliminated, only announcing the eliminated candidates later; this practice would be repeated for each round of eliminations.

2262-402: The field of philosophy of sport . Philosophers Stephen Kershnar and Neil Feit argue that the concept of the MVP is a fundamentally vague concept, but still valuable in that it promotes the active discussion of different types of excellence found within a specific sport and the weight to be assigned these types, thus leading to a gain for the discussants. Stephen Kershnar termed this vagueness

2320-413: The finalists for the award. The finalist who accumulated the most points after the voting period ended will be the award winner.

2378-492: The global success of The Three Tenors and Il Divo , the domestic classical music community was still largely conservative and segregationist and frowned on voice majors performing popular music due to a prevailing prejudice that classically trained singers who ventured into popular music would lose their singing skills.

Viewers have praised

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there was no audience in the studio; instead the "live audience" joined via live stream and the feed

3364-411: Was projected on the screen behind to simulate the presence of a studio audience. As this special was not a competition, there was no "knock out" format or elimination. Instead, the quartets compete against one another for the trophy and a special prize (mostly foodstuff or coupons).
