Baek Ah Yeon became teary during the show.

The judges had been unusually critical of her performance of ‘Can't Fight The Moonlight’ during this week's ‘K-Pop Star.’

Although her attempt at something new was praise worthy, but she had put too much on her plate by trying a dance performance. All the judges critiqued that she had failed to master the performance.

But she was not eliminated. In fact, she was casted to JYP and made it to the top 6. But even after the casting was announced, she looked dejected. After crossing the stage to join the other contestants, she put her head down and started to tear up, probably due to her dissatisfactory performance.
