Muthia also added that it was difficult to find a gap in the spectacular performances that night. The dedication shown by the finalists under the guidance of the coaches yielded very satisfying results. For her, the word "cool" doesn't even seem enough to describe the quality of that night's show.

The transformation of the participants during the quarantine period has also been a major point of focus. Syaqirah acknowledged that the Dangdut Academy program has successfully improved the singing abilities of the contestants significantly. The intensive learning process has greatly enhanced the vocal quality of each participant compared to when they first auditioned.
"What’s certain is that I’m much better at singing compared to when I first started; there were still a lot of shortcomings. Now, thank God, there has been progress," Syaqirah explained.

Although this season's competition is about to end, the alumni remain committed to continuously honing their skills in the professional music industry. They realize that the real struggle will only begin after the competition is over, so regular practice remains their main agenda.
"Yes, I have to keep practicing to improve myself for the better in the future. I also have to keep creating," concluded Mila.
