Achievements[]
MAMAMOO became notable in South Korea for their performances on Immortal Songs 2, which built up their reputation as singers.
The group's "Backwoods" performance led them to win on episode 223, the first part of the "Bae Ho" special.[1] However, as MAMAMOO only achieved 404 points, they didn't win in the special's second part on episode 224, losing to Bae Ki-sung who achieved 412 points. Park Ki-young was the special's final winner with 429 points.[2] Nevertheless, episode 223 marks MAMAMOO's first win in the show, making them the first 3rd generation idol group to win in Immortal Songs 2.
MAMAMOO's 8th appearance on episode 249 was particularly remarkable. For their "Wonderful Confession" performance, they achieved 433 points as their score and became the final winner of the "Yoon Soo-il" special.[3] Due to this win, MAMAMOO became the first girl group to become the final winner of a special, and the first group to win in multiple episodes.[4]
During their 12th appearance, they became the final winners of the "Shin Joong-hyun" special on episode 333, achieving 432 points with "The Dance in Rhythm".[5] MAMAMOO then became the first idol group to win on 3 episodes, and also became the final winners two times. Currently, they're the highest winning girl group on the show, while the idol group that has won the most overall is ATEEZ at 4 wins (as per episode 611).[6]
MAMAMOO have made up to 14 appearances as a full group in Immortal Songs 2. Idol groups usually don't get invited to perform in the show that many times, especially since MAMAMOO mostly appeared during their rookie years; they hold the record for the highest amount of appearances as a full idol group. Regarding this, Solar herself admitted that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call MAMAMOO the "daughters of Immortal Songs".[7] MAMAMOO also performed medleys of their Immortal Songs 2 songs for their 2017[8] and 2019[9] concerts, and also for Yoo Hee-yeol's Sketchbook.[10]
