Season 2 of the show, better known as Road to Kingdom: Ace of Ace, made its premiere on September 19, 2024.[4] The Road to Kingdom series would be re-branded as a standalone program, rather than a prequel to Kingdom.[5]
Overview
editRoad to Kingdom was a battle for a spot in Kingdom (킹덤) between 7 boy groups with potential, but mostly unknown to many.[6] Similar to Queendom, there would be Comeback Singles (newly produced songs) released on June 12, 2020.
During the season, special interview clips with Queendom contestants Park Bom, AOA (Chanmi), Mamamoo (Solar, Hwasa), Lovelyz (Mijoo, Kei), Oh My Girl (Hyojung, YooA) and (G)I-DLE (Soyeon, Yuqi) were shown in episode 1, as they shared their first thoughts about Road to Kingdom.[7]
There were numbers as hints, which were given 1 week before the first recording of the show, and they were shown as follow:[8]
- 1 boy group will advance to Kingdom, as part of winning the show; the number "1" also means the evaluation standards to be used
- 2 boy groups were eliminated throughout the show
- 4 performances (however, not all 7 boy groups will perform in all 4 performances)
- 7 boy groups
- 90 Seconds Performances (Preliminary Performances)
The Boyz, as the winner group of the show, secured a spot in the sequel program Kingdom: Legendary War.[9]
Rules
edit- There will be 2 boy groups to be eliminated throughout the show:
- 1 boy group will be eliminated when they obtain the lowest cumulative points of the 1st and 2nd performances
- 1 boy group (out of the remaining 6) will be eliminated when they obtain the lowest cumulative points after the 3rd performance
- The overall final ranking of the show (for the remaining 5 boy groups in the final performances) is based on the following criteria:
- 3 preliminary performances (1st Performance - 10,000 points, 2nd Performance - 10,000 points, 3rd Performance - 15,000 points)
- Video view points (based on the number of views of the performance videos (Full Version only) on YouTube and Naver TV; maximum of 15,000 points)
- Digital points of the Comeback Singles calculated from the time of release till June 16, 2020, at 23:59 (KST) (maximum of 15,000 points)
- Finale live comeback stages text message votes (domestic and international fans' votes; maximum of 35,000 points)
- The overall 1st placed boy group will be able to take part in Kingdom.
- The boy group which does not rank 1st overall, but ranks 1st in only the Final Live Performances, can also advance to take part in Kingdom.
- In the event of 1 boy group having both 1st overall and 1st in only the Final Live Performances, the said boy group will be the only boy group to take part in Kingdom.
Preliminary Performances - 90 Seconds Performances
editThe 7 boy groups each perform a 90-second performance that best expresses themselves.
There is no order decided before the performances - the order is decided on the spot. The first performing boy group is decided by the boy group that volunteers themselves first. After the first boy group has performed, they will decide on the second performing boy group, and the second boy group that has performed will then decide on the third performing boy group. The process goes on until all performances have been completed.
The round's points are entirely decided through a self-evaluation where each boy group will rank the other boy groups' performances from 1st to 6th.
- 1st place: 100 points
- 2nd place: 80 points
- 3rd place: 60 points
- 4th place: 40 points
- 5th place: 20 points
- 6th place: 5 points
1st Performances - Song of King
editThe 7 boy groups each perform one song from their boy group seniors, and is rearranged into a different style.
Rules
- The 1st placed boy group for the 90 Seconds Performances will get a benefit of arranging the cue sheet for this round of performances.
- The round's points are entirely decided through a self-evaluation, where each boy group's members will rank the other boy groups' performances from 1st to 6th.
- 1st place: 100 points
- 2nd place: 80 points
- 3rd place: 60 points
- 4th place: 40 points
- 5th place: 20 points
- 6th place: 5 points
- As ONF and Oneus each have only 6 members, the remaining 5 boy groups will each send 6 of their members to vote for this round. (Total of 42 boy group members voting in this round)
- Each boy group would receive self-evaluation points from the other 6 boy groups' 36 members, and they will be added up to become the round's total points obtained for the boy group.
- The 1st placed boy group gets the full 10,000 points, and the remaining boy groups will each get points based on the proportion of their self-evaluation points to the self-evaluation points of the 1st placed boy group.
2nd Performances - My Song
editThe 7 boy groups each perform one of their representative hit songs, that is rearranged and different from their usual stages of the song.
Rules
- The 1st placed boy group for the 1st Performances will get a benefit of arranging the cue sheet for this round of performances. However, the other boy groups do not find out their own spots, nor the ones of the others, in the cue sheet until the day of the performances.
- The round's points are decided through 2 categories:
- Self-evaluation that was used for the 1st Performances voting, where each boy group would receive points from the other 6 boy groups' 36 members. (30% of the points for this round)
- Online audience votes from 140 individuals. Each boy group will gather 20 individuals, and each individual only gets to vote for the top 3 performances in this round. (70% of the points for this round)
- The 1st placed boy group gets the full 10,000 points, and the remaining boy groups will each get points based on the proportion of their total points obtained to the total points obtained for the 1st placed boy group.
3rd Performances - Part 1 (Collaboration) Part 2 (Your Song)
editThe 6 remaining boy groups will have 2 performances for this round: the first being a collaboration performance, and the second being the performance of a song chosen by another boy group.
Rules (Collaboration)
- The 3 pairs of boy groups were matched by random picking of one boy group, followed by random picking of the next boy group to be paired with the boy group picked earlier on. The process goes on to form the remaining 2 pairs.
- There are no restrictions in the number of members each boy group would involve and their song choices.
- The round's points are decided through 2 categories:
- Self-evaluation, where each boy group will send 6 members (total of 36 boy group members voting) and rank the 3 collaboration performances. (30% of the points for this round)
- Online audience votes from 120 individuals. Each boy group will gather 20 individuals, and each individual ranks the 3 performances in this round. (70% of the points for this round)
- 1st place - 10 points, 2nd place - 5 points, 3rd place - 1 point
- The 1st placed collaboration performance gets the full 5,000 points each for the boy groups involved, 3,000 each for the boy groups involved in the 2nd placed collaboration performance, and 1,000 each for the boy groups involved in the 3rd placed collaboration performance.
Rules (Your Song)
- The 6 remaining boy groups each pick a song, with no restriction, for this round.
- The songs chosen will each then be allocated to another boy group, but only within the pairings that were formed for the Collaboration round.
- The 1st placed boy group for the 2nd Performances will get a benefit of arranging the cue sheet for this round of performances. However, the other boy groups do not find out their own spots, nor the ones of the others, in the cue sheet until the day of the performances.
- The round's points are decided through 2 categories:
- Self-evaluation, where each boy group will send 6 members (total of 36 boy group members voting). (30% of the points for this round)

- For this round, live votes will be allocated in the following distribution:
- Domestic fans' text message votes (70% of the live votes)
- International fans' voting through the Whosfan application (30% of the live votes)
- In addition, the following categories are also considered to decide the final winner:
