Mnet’s “Queendom 2” will give fans a taste of what’s to come by livestreaming an episode of the series on its official YouTube channel tonight at 9:20 p.m.

In the episode, six K-pop acts — Brave Girls, Viviz, WJSN, Kep1er, Loona and Hyolyn — will explain why they decided to appear on the survival program and how they feel about other artists’ appearances.

The show sees six high-profile female K-pop acts compete against each other by each releasing a new song on the same day. In the first season of “Queendom” (2019), the winner won a solo comeback show on Mnet.

Taeyeon of girl group Girls' Generation will host the show which will air every Thursday at 9:20 p.m. for 10 weeks from March 31.
