ENHYPEN had a dance battle on 'Sore Snow Man.' In the broadcast on the 13th, ENHYPEN's Ni-ki, Jungwon, Heeseung, and Jake appeared. They competed against the Snow Man team and a complete copy team of Goto Maki, Ayaka Sasaki from Momoiro Clover Z, former AKB48 and SKE48's Jurina Matsui, and Anna Ishii, learning and performing choreography in three minutes. When asked about their appearances on Japanese variety shows, Ni-ki said, 'I haven't done much,' and Jungwon expressed, 'I'm nervous since it's my first time on such a program, but I'll do my best.' Heeseung, introduced as having perfect pitch, listened to Koji Mukai's 'Goigoisuu' and answered 'C#,' which excited Mukai who confirmed, 'Correct!' Jungwon attempted AKB48's 'Oogoe Diamond' but unfortunately failed. Still, Shota Watanabe commented, 'It was a bad copy, but it was cute, so I could watch it.' When asked what song they chose for the second round, Heeseung misunderstood and cheerfully raised his hand saying, 'Me!' but felt embarrassed upon realizing his mistake. Watanabe hugged Heeseung, calling him 'incredibly adorable.' When ENHYPEN chose Girls' Generation's 'Gee' and were asked why, Heeseung again mistakenly raised his hand, leading to Watanabe hugging him for the second time, causing laughter in the studio. Additionally, Jungwon mentioned he likes sweet potato curry when he comes to Japan, while Raul shared his love for Korean food, thanking ENHYPEN for bringing kimbap. Jake also showcased a gag he learned from Raul, saying 'Getts!' They enjoyed their talk despite struggling with unfamiliar Japanese songs and strict judging, but received cheers for their perfect dance to their song 'Sweet Venom' and BTS's 'Permission to Dance.' After the competition, Ni-ki said, 'I’ve been watching this program for a while, so it was really fun,' and Jake added, 'It was a new experience and a fun time.' ENHYPEN confirmed their appearance on the two-hour special of 'Sore Snow Man' aired on September 13, 2024, featuring a dance battle between Japan and Korea.
