On the show, regular Hong Kong citizens appear as contestants on stage to sing and perform. Their objective is to remain on stage for as long as possible, before the judges ring a bell to eliminate them. For each second the contestant remains on stage, the contestant is given HK$100. The judges are often harsh and make fun of them directly.
