After all 10 songs played, the audiences will vote in order to decide which song will be qualified to "Judge Cuts". At the same time, the "Golden Buzzer" was placed in ahead of each celebrity guest, each celebrity guest is allowed the use the golden buzzer to send a song automatically to the "Judge Cuts", also each celebrity guest's "Golden Buzzer" can be only used once. If a song receives the golden buzzer during an episode, the episode would have 2 qualified songs instead of usual 1. In addition, one pair of celebrity guests only lasted for 4 episodes.

The "Judge Cuts" stage took place right after the pair of celebrity guests have finished their auditions for 4 episodes, all the chosen songs including their "Golden Buzzer"(s) will compete and at the end, only 1 "Golden Buzzer" song and 1 regular song could qualify to the "Sound of the Dream". All decisions during the "Judge Cuts" are determined by the celebrity guests. If there are only 1 "Golden Buzzer" song competing on the Judge Cuts, the song would automatically advance to the "Sound of the Dream". If there are 2 "Golden Buzzer" songs competing, the celebrity guests have to choose 1 of them to send it to the "Sound of the Dream". If there are no "Golden Buzzer" songs competing, the celebrity guests would send 2 regular songs to the "Sound of the Dream".

During the "Sound of the Dream", all songs that have been chosen during the "Judge Cuts" would compete together. The format of the stage varied depending on the season:
 * On Season 1, only 7 out of 10 songs would receive the grand prize of the season. The top 7 songs were determined by the audience.
 * On Season 2, only 5 out of 10 songs would receive the grand prize of the season. The top 5 songs were determined by the audience.
