BTS battled it out in an intense karaoke showdown to get out of doing house chores.

In the most recent episode of “Run BTS!” broadcast on Naver’s V Live, the seven-piece boy band held a karaoke face-off to decide which members would do the dishes and clean up after dinner.

The members grouped themselves into three teams, and RM, Jimin and V were the first ones up.

The trio picked the 1985 classic “Let’s Go on a Vacation” by Cho Yong-pil, a legendary pop star who was part of South Korea’s delegation of artists for performances in Pyongyang in April.

The three accessorized their looks with a rainbow afro wig, a cat ear headband and an obnoxiously large bow tie, and totally rocked the vintage getaway song.

“What if we get a perfect score?” said V excitedly, only to be let down shortly after as the karaoke machine gave them a score of 83 out of 100.

J-Hope and Jungkook were up next. Indie group and “Superstar K3” star Busker Busker’s 2012 hit “Cherry Blossom Ending” was their choice.

Although the song is a slow-tempo ballad, the duo managed to pump a lot of excitement into the performance. They even got their bandmates to sing along with them.

The karaoke machine, however, gave the duo’s stellar performance a score of 81, which was lower than that earned by RM, Jimin and V.

Jin and Suga

Jin and Suga were last to take the stage. The two eldest members of BTS chose to sing Buzz’s 2005 rock ballad “A Journey towards Myself.”

Although Suga said he wouldn’t be able to pull it off, once the song’s first note began, he started roaring into the microphone along with Jin, like a pair of rock stars.

The pair won first place in the karaoke face-off, scoring the highest -- a whopping 97 -- and earning the right to be exempted from clean-up duty.
