1"High Jump Challenge"June 10, 2012 (2012-06-10)
The members were introduced to the basic premise of the show, to take on challenges and generate excitement. The challenge that the band members were going to tackle in this episode was set by Choi Minho of the Korean boy group Shinee. The dare was to trump his record jumping 1.73 meters in the high jump. When it came time to proceed with the high jump event, it was Niel of Teen Top that ended up beating Minho's record by jumping 1.74 meters.
2"Acrobatic Challenge"June 17, 2012 (2012-06-17)
The challenge that was being attempted was set by Korean boy group 2pm. The idea of this episode was to have either Teen Top or 100% be named as Korea's number 1 acrobatic boy band, a title already held by 2pm. The task was to finish a set of difficult acrobatic tasks in a set amount of time. In the end, Teen Top came out victorious, finishing the task at hand before 100% could even make an attempt.
3"Back to School Idols"June 24, 2012 (2012-06-24)
The challenge had to deal with knowledge about a broad range of topics and trivia information. The least knowledgeable team would have a negative article sent to the media, contrary to the previous episodes. The body of knowledge on which the band members were to be tested was taken from standard educational materials encompassing grades 1 through 6. In the end, 100% gave more correct answers than Teen Top, winning their first challenge/task so far in the series.
4"Acting Idols"July 1, 2012 (2012-07-01)
The members of each respective group were given a script by the CEO Andy. The challenge of this episode was to see which group would excel in the art form of acting. They were each given 10 scripts of well known Korean dramas. The challenge was for each group to perform their chosen dramas without messing up any of the lines. This would have benefited the winning team, as there was great interest in good acting ability. The episode ended with no group winning because no one could finish the task perfectly.
