  • Law student Enzo Jiménez advanced after his Jungkook audition, winning approvals from Ricardo Morán, Jely Reátegui and Carlos Alcántara following an a cappella request.
  • A tribute to Diego Bertie by Juan Víctor moved the panel to tears and earned a unanimous yes, while Whitney Houston impersonator Jolie Messambo also progressed after drawing an emotional response from Morán.
  • The judging trio from the previous run remains intact, and early auditions featured the younger brothers of Rodolfo and Diosdado Gaitán Castro, who passed to the next stage.
