In the video, Kriesha started by introducing herself through a song. That alone gave a good impression on the judges of K-Pop Star 6 namely,YG Entertainment’s Yang Hyun-suk, JYP Entertainment’s Park Jin-young and Antenna Music’s You Hee-yeol.

While she was being interviewed by Yang Hyun-suk,  Jin-young and You Hee-yeoul were talking about how pretty she was and how she resembled Olivia Hussey. The judges wondered by she hasn’t been signed or promoted. One judge said, “We should hang a billboard or send out Flyers.”

When Yang Huyn-suk asked, “You speak Korean, You are Korean right?,” Kriesha immediately said she was originally from the Philippines. The judges were shocked. Kriesha said she went to a Korean Institute which is the reason why she can speak the language.

Kriesha sang “I Don’t Love You” by Urban Zakapa in Korean. She gave a wonderful performance. After her song she was asked to give her dance number. She danced to the acoustic version of Justin Bieber’s song “If I was Your Boyfriend.”

After Kriesha’s performance, You Hee-yeoul said, “I am very excited and my heart flutters.” He added Kriesha could form a group and make her debut. Jin-young said he liked her voice and attitude. You Hee-yeoul said he wanted her on his agency right away.

Jin Young and Yang Hyun-suk said they were jealous of the agency who has her. He added how fast and powerful she was in changing dance moves. Her song on the other hand was not that impressive he said. She needed to have proper breathing to produce sounds well.
