Campus Search
In the first seven episodes, the hosts select good-looking students from each campus. Six of them are selected, and are treated to challenging games. The contestants are given points based on their overall performances. The contestant with the highest initial score advanced to the semifinals, together with two contestants who receive an extra of 10 points from the hosts. If a total of extra 20 points is given to a contestant, then the one with the second highest initial score will also advance to the semifinals.
