Last week,
there were various challengers including...
an actor, a model, and a singer.
His pronunciation is old-fashioned.
It's an elementary school level English.
The challengers' nationalities have become more diverse.
Even a foreigner came out as a contestant.
This unexpectedness of Round One...
blew everyone's mind.
However,
the matches are getting even more competitive.
These four compete to become King of Mask Singer.
Speaker in My Town.
Violin Man Is Being Tuned.
Time Runner Rabbit.
Hit maker Queen Heart.
Also,
he touches the panelists' hearts with his heartrending voice.
He's the 43rd and 44th King of Mask Singer.
It's Tin Man with a Burning Heart.
According to the online mobile survey,
netizens' expectation for the 45th King of Mask Singer is...
Tin Man with a Burning Heart followed by...
Hit maker Queen Heart who got the second place.
Will Tin Man be able to keep the golden mask?
The 45th King of Mask Singer is...
Great matches with twists start now.
(King of Mask Singer)
It's the first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
He defeated the actor Seo Tae Hwa.
The sound of his powerful voice echoes around.
It's Speaker in My Town.
(Here comes a surrounding speaker.)
(Turn up the volume.)
(Welcome)
I really want to know who he is.
We have no clue about him, right?
None at all.
I literally have no idea.
(There is a powerful energy within his beautiful voice.)
(He showed everyone a powerful performance.)
Your voice is so soft.
I think it's someone who stopped singing for a while.
There is this guy called Ryu Jae Hyun in Vibe.
Ryu Jae Hyun.
(Nobody has a single clue about who he is.)
(Panelists are in confusion among various guesses.)
(What kind of performance will Speaker show?)
("You're Only in a Place Higher than Me" by Shin Seung Hun)
(This is the title song of Shin Seung Hun's 5th album in 1996.)
(How will Speaker sing the song?)
(His voice is as beautiful as the first snow.)
(It's amazing.)
(It feels like taking the first step on a white snowy road.)
(Speaker sings each tune with all his heart.)
(His mild voice warms up people's hearts.)
(Who is he?)
(His voice is even more appealing.)
(He sings as if he mournfully misses someone.)
(It's a heartrending pure love...)
(towards his love who left far away.)
(His warm and delicate song...)
(touches the listeners' hearts.)
(His tone and breath feel...)
(like the early morning air with morning dew.)
(I don't cry anymore)
(He just fights back the sorrow of parting...)
(and lets that sense of longing fade away into the sky.)
(Speaker's love song is so sorrowful that it might reach the sky.)
(The audience feels sorrow.)
His voice is very similar to that of Shin Seung Hun.
I think he likes Shin Seung Hun a lot.
He must've listened to Seung Hun's way of singing many times.
(It was amazing.)
His opponent...
beat Joo Woo Jae, the model.
Every tune in his song is artistically performed.
Violin Man Is Being Tuned.
(Violin Man Is Being Tuned.)
(Today I will...)
(show you what art is.)
(We are waiting for your song.)
He looks more handsome than before.
He looks like a man of autumn.
He's stylish.
(His husky but gentle voice attracted the female audience.)
(His voice is sorrowful and sexy.)
(He is a truly talented musician.)
(He tunes his voice perfectly.)
(He has ultimate delicacy.)
(In addition,)
(he can also play any kind of instrument.)
(Is he a maestro?)
(Violin Man is alone on stage.)
(The audience is waiting for his song.)
(What kind of an artistic performance has he prepared?)
("Even If You Leave Me" by Cho Jang Hyuk)
What?
Isn't this your song?
(It's an OST from "Stars in My Heart"...)
(and a hit song of Cho Jang Hyuk's first album.)
(He's excited and thrilled.)
(It's so good.)
(His powerful voice attracts women's hearts at once.)
(It's different from Cho Jang Hyuk's powerful rock ballad.)
(His voice is tough and gentle at the same time.)
(He sorrowfully conveys longing...)
(with a strong sentiment and subtle trembles.)
(His deep breathing and lonely emotions...)
(touch the original singer's heart.)
(His powerful voice and gentle sentiment harmonize well together.)
He presents a new sentiment.
(Only Violin Man's sentiment could express the song in a new way.)
(He's good.)
(His lonely cry fills the stage.)
(It thrills the audience's hearts.)
(I'll still love you)
(Forever)
(Violin Man reinterpreted Cho Jang Hyuk's "Even If You Leave Me".)
(Even his breathing touches the audience.)
I enjoyed the song.
(It is a work of art.)
His voice was different from last week.
- It was very clear. - Right.
I can feel that he has years of experience.
It's so good.
The first match of Round Two is over.
First, I'll ask the person who was listening to the song...
with his eyes closed, Cho Jang Hyuk.
This first performance was filled with warmth.
As for Speaker,
he has such a sweet voice.
His voice is unique.
What's most beautiful about his performance is that...
he never goes overboard.
He doesn't go overboard and looks comfortable...
when he sings.
He sings as nicely as...
a professional singer.
That's what I think.
- Do you think he's not a singer? - He's not a professional singer,
but his singing ability is as good as that of a professional singer.
I was really surprised to hear Violin Man sing my song.
Isn't this your song?
(His heart started to pound.)
As I listened to Violin Man's song,
- I envied Cho Jang Hyuk. - Why?
I wondered how it would sound...
if he sang a song that I composed with that voice.
I agree. That's why I really appreciated that.
- You wanted him to sing your song. - Right. With that voice.
Violin Man's voice is quite gentle...
but also very manly at the same time.
He has both characteristics.
His voice is so beautiful,
so he sings with that voice.
But it seems like he had listened...
to rock music a lot in the past.
When he sang the song in his own style and manner,
it made the song very beautiful.
I'm thankful that I got to see that side of my song.
- I really enjoyed your performance. - The composer said that.
- It's a high praise. - They complimented him a lot.
It might be my personal opinion,
but what I can see from his outfit is that...
he might be a former...
- top idol singer... - I see.
who was active in the early 1990s.
I think he stepped back from the industry for a while,
but I think he also kept...
- his passion for music. - I see.
That's why...
- I chose him. - Did you vote for him?
- Did you vote for Speaker? - I voted for Speaker.
It's because I'm sure...
many people must have voted for Violin Man.
- That's why you voted for Speaker. - Right.
(His manly and powerful vocalization...)
(made this woman vote for him.)
(His delicate vibration...)
(made another woman vote for him.)
(More woman kept voting for him.)
So I'm saying that he will do well without me.
Also, Speaker's manly characteristic...
touched me a lot.
That's why I personally chose him.
Gu Ra openly told us that he supports Speaker.
Among violins,
there's a masterpiece called Stradivarius.
- Right. - It's very expensive.
What makes a masterpiece is...
that it differs in its basics and details.
Violin Man is...
just like a Stradivarius violin...
because he has all the basic elements...
in his voice. I'm very touched.
- You mean he has details. - For Speaker,
which brand name will you give to his voice?
(Let me see.)
(For Speaker...)
- It is installed in many cars. - Right.
To be installed in a car,
it should sound very calm,
and it should also attract many people.
That's what I mean.
I'm glad to have been able to watch...
two performances that had strong basics.
- What do you think, Kang Ta? - Well,
I think Speaker is a big fan of Shin Seung Hun.
When Shin Seung Hun sings this song,
he maneuvers the microphone...
because his voice can be too small when he sings low notes.
It must have taken him a lot of practice...
to achieve such skills.
(Pulling away)
- I don't think he is a singer. - You don't think he is a singer.
I think he worked diligently to get to that level.
I am sure everyone can tell that Violin Man chose...
a song that works perfectly for his voice.
However, it wasn't boring.
There are aspects people expect from the song,
but he went beyond that and showed different colors.
The techniques he used showed his years of experience.
I believe they both made the best choice for their songs.
My goodness.
He has amazing analytical skills.
It's impossible to listen to Kang Ta...
for this long on a variety show.
- That's right. - I am so thankful...
because I can't speak for more than 10 seconds on a variety show.
- You are the most boring person. - I can't help but stop talking.
- My goodness. - I can't go on...
because people lose interest after 10 seconds.
I see.
In the shows I was recently on,
I didn't get more than 10 seconds of screen time after editing.
The explanation you just gave was very memorable.
(He was able to talk for a minute and 30 seconds.)
(Plus, everyone listened.)
- I love King of Mask Singer. - You are the most boring person.
I talked for over a minute.
- My dream has come true. - It was impressive.
I was recently on a show with Seong Ju.
- He cut you off often, right? - I couldn't speak for long.
His face darkened...
- whenever I talked. - You showed us your charms...
that we haven't been able to see.
It's easier to focus when he is talking about music.
- I believe your analysis will air. - Thank you.
- You found the perfect program. - Thank you.
It has been years since I got more than 30 seconds of screen time.
- That's amazing. - Thank you.
Now, they will show us their specialties...
so that we can speculate about their identities.
We will give Kang Ta a chance to stop being called boring...
by participating in this segment.
Really?
- Would you be okay with it? - Yes, I have a few specialties.
- You do? - Yes.
We will first see Violin Man's specialty.
He can sing K-Pop songs with a twist of trot.
It's his talent.
- The song he prepared is... - It's "Candy".
- "Candy". - "Candy".
(How will he turn this cheerful song into a trot song?)
- He seems to be a talented man. - A trot version of "Candy"...
will be like yeot, a Korean traditional confectionery.
You mean something like pumpkin yeot.
I am sorry.
Was it okay?
It seems like sitting next to me infected him with my boring nature.
He used to be funny.
Sing a trot version of a song.
Violin Man, you can begin.
(It's only that I love you)
(That's what I said)
It's rhythm and blues.
(A familiar walking stick appears.)
(I put many nights behind me)
- Let's end it here. - He did an amazing job.
His voice was still very charming.
- He has a nice voice. - It was his actual voice.
Wasn't it a rhythm and blues version of the song?
- Is that what it sounded like? - Yes.
- Kang Ta, why don't you try it? - Give us a proper trot version.
- In that case, - Give us a proper trot version.
- may I sing a different part? - He will sing a different part.
Kang Ta will sing different lyrics.
(How will he do?)
(It is my plan today)
(It's a proper trot version.)
(Serious and diligent)
(I will meet you)
(My goodness, Kang Ta.)
Give him a round a applause!
(He is a funny man.)
He is funny.
- He is funny. - He isn't boring.
He showed us his talent.
Judging from his singing style,
I think he might be a singer-songwriter.
I think he is someone who writes his own music...
with his unique colors.
That must be why his colors show in every song he sings.
This time, you will guess Speaker's identity from his specialty.
He wrote that dance is his specialty.
It's Right Arm Left Foot Dance.
Right Arm Left Foot Dance.
Music, please.
(Warming up)
He is using his right arm.
His left hand is in his pocket.
- It's Right Arm Dance. - This is nice.
- Left foot. - It's not an easy dance.
Right arm and left foot.
He is only using his right arm and left foot.
My goodness.
(It looks like he is putting on a circus show.)
I can't believe this is a dance.
- My goodness. - Let's end it here.
(It was nice.)
The way he rotated his arm reminded me...
of Clon's Glow Stick Dance.
- I think he is as old... - That's right.
as Kang Won Rae and Koo Jun Yup.
I think he is a member of a dance group...
from the early to mid 90s.
- A member of a dance group. - Yes.
His dance looked professional.
It reminded me of rocking dance.
Members of H.O.T. learned the dance...
before we debuted.
- Do you want to show us the dance? - No, I was only explaining.
Let's see your dance.
- Kang Ta. - Show us.
- He is working hard today. - He probably wanted to show us.
It's the dance of an original idol singer.
It's rocking dance.
Let's see it, Kang Ta.
(His movements are under control and powerful.)
(His dance is impressive.)
(The most boring person in Asia is on fire.)
(I know how to do this.)
Kang Ta!
Kang Ta.
- He is great. - It was nice.
I think he is an actor.
- An actor? - I bet his voice sounds...
even more charming when he says his lines.
I believe he was in the service industry.
- Service industry? - That's right.
I gave you a few hints.
- Really? - Really?
They were in relation to Kang Ta.
In relation to Kang Ta?
Didn't you figure it out?
- What hints did you give? - Is it related to him being boring?
- "Boring" and "Zam" sound similar. - My goodness!
- These people are so slow-witted. - Zam.
- I can't believe them. - Zam?
"Boring" and "Zam" sound similar in Korean.
- Zam. - Zam.
Zam.
(Zam is a group with 5 members that represents the 90s.)
Is he a member of Zam?
That's right.
All right. Now, I will announce...
the result of the first match of Round Two.
Who is the winner of the match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who will be the winner?
Who will move on to Final Round?
Between Speaker and Violin Man,
who will be the winner of this match?
Violin Man won.
- Violin! - Violin Man won.
- That's right. - Violin Man.
Violin!
(Let's move on without tuning the instrument.)
(Congratulations.)
Violin Man won with a big difference in votes.
The final score was 80 to 19.
Congratulations. Please return to your waiting room.
Please give him a big hand.
(The shocking identity of Speaker will be revealed soon.)
Please wait a bit.
I will tune the instrument and return to perform on stage.
Let's go!
He is a pure vocalist without extravagant charms.
Who is Speaker?
Now, Speaker, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(He has a beautiful voice...)
(with unique charms.)
(Is he a singer who took a break from singing?)
(Was he active in the early to mid 90s...)
(as a member of a dance group?)
(Is he from the same generation as Kang Won Rae and Koo Jun Yup?)
(Is he a member of Zam?)
Please take off your mask and reveal your identity.
(Who could Speaker be?)
(Screaming)
He is...
- Why are they screaming? - Who is he?
Everyone seems to recognize him.
He is...
a scene stealer with 29 years of experience,
Hong Kyung In.
(He is Hong Kyung In, the actor?)
(My goodness.)
(He wasn't a member of Zam.)
(How could an actor sing so well?)
It's Hong Kyung In.
He is an actor! My goodness.
(Cheerful)
(This is incredible.)
(He is someone the public has missed.)
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, it's nice to meet you. I am an actor, Hong Kyung In.
It has been a while.
(He debuted in 1988 at the age of 13.)
(He received the public's attention with "Our Twisted Hero".)
(In "A Single Spark",)
(he left an impression with his soulful act.)
(With "Sandglass", he joined the ranks of talented actors.)
(He even acted in sitcoms such as "Three Men and Three Women".)
(His impressive acting skills transcend genres.)
(He has 29 years of acting experiences.)
(An irreplaceable actor with unique charms, Hong Kyung In)
I thought Gu Ra knew who he was.
He acted like he was generous.
"Didn't I give you a few hints?"
"It's Zam."
I really like "King of Mask Singer", but being here made me see...
- how disorderly the panelists are. - They are disorderly, right?
Gu Ra is ridiculous.
Kyung In, you haven't been on TV for a long time.
I took a long break from the entertainment business.
However, I did appear in a movie...
and furthered my acting career from time to time.
Having been an actor from a young age made me wonder...
what I would be doing if I didn't start acting.
So I've been doing a business I had prepared for a long time.
Now, I want to start acting again.
I thought acting is the thing I can do better than anything.
I'm planning on coming back as an actor.
We've been watching him act for a long time.
It's been a while, but he feels familiar like a next-door neighbor.
To describe him in short, he's a man of talents.
I personally hope that you'll devote yourself to acting.
- I know. - I really enjoyed your stage today.
Lastly, I heard you had a wish you wanted...
to fulfill through your stage here today.
- I recently started Instagram. - The social media?
Yes. I made an account on social media,
but I only have about 1,000 followers.
I was a bit embarrassed.
- I see. - After today, I hope...
I'll see an alphabet after the number.
That's my wish. I hope you'll help me with that.
If you still remember him, please support Kyung In.
It's been 29 years since you debuted,
but you still performed so passionately on stage today.
Please give a big hand to the familiar actor, Hong Kyung In.
- Go, Kyung In! - Thank you.
(We'll be waiting for your great acting.)
You can do it.
(Sighing)
It's over now.
I came to a broadcasting station in a very long time.
I had a lot of fun seeing all those familiar faces.
I will work hard as an actor...
to show you great performances.
Please follow me on Instagram.
(He's being mischievous.)
This is the result of Round Two.
Violin Man Is Being Tuned defeated...
Hong Kyung In and moved on to Round Three.
The second match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
She defeated Tyler with...
her magical voice that rules time and space.
Time Runner Rabbit.
(Time Runner Rabbit)
(It's time to sing a song!)
(We can't wait to hear it.)
(Gosh, I love her.)
I love her.
I can't wait.
She came toddling in.
(She walks like this.)
(Her sweet voice tickles your ears.)
(Rabbit has pure emotions of a young first love.)
She has such a fresh voice.
Her voice sounds like...
the voice of Bolbbalgan4's vocalist.
I think she's in Okdal.
- You mean Kim Yoon Ju. - I think it's Kim Yoon Ju.
(With her unique, dreamlike voice,)
(she touched middle-aged men's hearts.)
(Who is Rabbit, the magical vocalist?)
(Rabbit's charms attract you like magnets.)
(What kind of power is she going to show in Round Two?)
("Rainy Season" by Jung In)
It's "Rainy Season".
This song is difficult to sing.
(Surprised)
(Her voice sounds much more emotional than in Round One.)
(Her sweet and husky voice slowly fills up the studio.)
(Her unique voice makes you feel emotional.)
(She sings about a lonely breakup where she knows he won't come back,)
(but she can't hold on to him.)
(As the rain drops make waves,)
(a wave of sad emotions start to rise.)
(Her unique voice expresses the song even with her breathing.)
(This is nice.)
(Moved)
(Rabbit has a charm like a black hole. Who is she?)
(House Band)
(Her voice has the power to make people concentrate on her song.)
(The sorrow of parting rages like the rainy season.)
(Fascinated)
(She's got a husky, appealing voice.)
(Her pure soul sings the agony of parting.)
(Rabbit's "Rainy Season" told us a very sad story about separation.)
It was beautiful.
(The feelings from the song still linger in people's hearts.)
It was very emotional.
Her voice matches her pink skirt.
(They all are fascinated by Rabbit's charms.)
Her opponent is...
a singer who beat You Jeen of Cherry Filter.
She is a lovable vocalist.
Hit maker Queen Heart.
(Here comes Hit maker Queen Heart.)
(Look forward to my song.)
(We are deeply grateful.)
I think she could be quite intimidating to the current King.
- I agree. - I know.
- She is cute. - There she comes.
(She beat You Jeen of Cherry Filter...)
(with her unique voice...)
(and her elegant charms.)
(Queen Heart thrilled the audience.)
(She can control everything about her voice...)
(including the volume, dynamics, and even her breathing.)
(She shows everything she has...)
(with her confidence in her ability.)
(She has a cool, clear voice.)
(Is Queen Heart a musical actress?)
(It's time to listen to Queen Heart's song.)
(For the people who are looking forward to seeing her performance,)
(what song is Queen Heart going to sing?)
("Please" by Lee So Ra)
(Admiring)
(She's singing the song!)
The song will make me crazy.
(Even the introduction of the song...)
(makes people very emotional.)
(How is Queen Heart going to sing the song?)
(Her rich and heavy voice tone is breathtaking.)
(She gives off her sorrow with deep sighs.)
(Every word she sings...)
(touches people's hearts.)
(The song makes people feel guilty that they are even breathing.)
(Her plaintive voice is fathomless.)
(The stage is full of the sorrow...)
(that Queen Heart radiates.)
This is so sad.
(Queen Heart's ardent love song...)
(makes the King of Mask Singer and Rabbit burst into tears.)
(Holding feelings of sadness inside,)
(she leaves behind her last message.)
(I'm sorry I vented my anger on you as I became to love you more)
(Can't you come back to me?)
(Her heart is filled with grief.)
(Please)
(It is a desperate confession of love, "Please" by Queen Heart.)
(It was the best.)
(They are deeply moved.)
What should we do?
The current King of Mask Singer is in trouble.
What should I do?
The second match of Round Two is over.
Young Seok, I saw you...
listening to the song with your eyes closed.
- How did you like it? - It was nice.
I even wanted to become...
a turtle so that I could hang out with Rabbit.
- You wanted to be a turtle? - Yes.
He wanted to become a turtle and hang out with Rabbit.
What is he talking about?
(It was just a lame joke.)
I found out that...
Rabbit has very unique skills.
She has a distinct singing style...
which is not rhythm and blues nor trot.
It was rather delicate and mysterious.
Every note of the song was gently connected.
It was an amazing song.
Let me compare her voice to something.
- Okay. Go ahead. - To some people,
Jung In's voice may sound a little heavy.
(Her husky sorrowful voice may sound heavy to some people.)
Let's say you are taking a shower.
Jung In's voice feels like strong water coming out from a shower.
But her voice feels like smooth water coming out from a shower.
Jung In's voice is like thick udon noodles.
But her voice is like thin janchi guksu noodles.
Her voice was very touching,
yet very comfortable to listen.
How was it, Kai?
I know that Queen Heart is...
one of the most representative vocalists of Korea.
Do you know who she is?
Yes, I do.
She has the ability to sing classical music amazingly.
There's no limitation for her voice in terms of singing.
She could sing any genre of music.
I was so moved.
What do you think about Rabbit?
Sometimes, we can see rabbits running around freely in parks.
They are very shy,
and they run away so fast.
Just when I'm about to catch it, I miss it. It escapes so fast.
Like that, I think she knows how to move men's hearts.
I could feel that innocence within her.
As for Rabbit,
when the intro of "Rainy Season" came out,
I was a bit worried about whether she'd be able to sing...
the song with her soft voice that I had heard last week.
However, she proved me wrong,
and she sang it amazingly.
I could feel that challenging spirit within her.
Queen Heart is such an experienced singer.
It felt like she was showing off...
all of her singing career on this stage.
I'm sure she must've practiced so much to get to where she is now.
Her efforts in practicing and strong mind is something I should learn.
I think I've learned so much from her as a vocalist today.
That's my Kang Ta.
Even though you spoke for so long,
it wasn't boring at all.
It was very interesting.
A lot of you said that...
Rabbit might be innocent.
But it may not be true.
She prepared this specialty...
called the Dance of Seduction.
She'll dance as if she's seducing someone.
Here's Rabbit's Dance of Seduction.
- Rabbit. - She's so cute.
Please show us your dance.
(Will Rabbit be able to seduce the male panelists?)
(She moves her body.)
(Listen to me boys.)
(I love you.)
(He loves it.)
How cute.
(Rabbit expresses her love.)
(She sends love.)
(He's happy to get it.)
(She moves men's hearts with another cute dance.)
(My goodness.)
(She shows off her cuteness.)
(His heart flutters.)
(Other men love it, too.)
(She makes a mistake.)
(It's okay to make a mistake.)
How cute.
(Satisfied)
(She does her best to grab men's attention.)
(Please accept my love.)
(She sends out love.)
That will be all.
How innocent.
It's time for Queen Heart to show her specialty.
She'll sing a line from an opera.
Sing for us, please.
("Queen of the Night Aria" from "The Magic Flute")
(Wow)
(Is he singing along?)
(She flies away to the sky...)
(as her tones get higher and higher.)
(She's unbelievable.)
(It's the high notes of paradise.)
This is it.
(Bravo)
(Hail to the queen.)
You're amazing.
Kai, are you still sure of who she is?
Absolutely.
She sang a high F note right now.
It's the highest tone.
She sang it so easily.
Can't you sing this note?
Well, I'm afraid I can't.
- Can you sing it in a lower key? - It's hard.
Give it a try.
- With a lower key? - Show us a little.
(Anytime and anywhere,)
(with his perfect voice,)
(he touches people's hearts.)
(People have high expectations for him today as well.)
(Singing)
(He gets prepared.)
(He sounds like he's sinking into the ground.)
(Laughing)
- Are you actually laughing? - He is laughing.
He's laughing so loud.
- They way you laugh is funny. - I did my best.
- There's something Kai can't do. - I can't do it.
Queen Heart did something that even Kai can't do.
Now, I will announce the result...
of the second Match in Semi-finals of Round Two.
Among these two singers,
I'll now reveal the winner...
of this match that was chosen by you.
(Will it be the attractive vocalist Rabbit...)
(who let us feel that loneliness of being apart from a lover?)
(Will it be the charismatic vocalist Queen Heart...)
(who made us feel sad with that mournful emotion?)
Who will be able to...
compete with Violin Man...
by moving on to Round Three?
The winner is...
(This is the most nerve-wrecking moment.)
(Will it be Rabbit or Queen Heart?)
Show us the winner of this match.
Who is it?
Queen Heart is the winner.
(It's Queen Heart.)
Go Queen Heart.
(Queen Heart moves on to Round Three.)
(She's the best.)
Rabbit is so charming, don't you think?
Right. I feel bad to lose her.
The final score was 65 to 34.
It was 65 to 34.
Queen Heart won by 30 votes.
She will compete with Violin Man in Round Three.
Please return to your waiting room.
Please give her a big hand.
(The shocking identity of Rabbit will be revealed soon.)
Stay tuned for Round Three,
and I hope you enjoy it.
It was Queen Heart.
She fascinated all the panelists with her innocence that...
stirred up everyone's protective instinct.
Let's find out who Rabbit is.
Turn around...
and prepare to reveal yourself.
(She has such a fresh voice.)
(Her emotional expression is so smooth like water.)
(She knows how to move a man's heart.)
(She's a vocalist with innocence.)
Please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(She tries to take off her mask.)
(Cheering)
(She's pretty.)
Who is she?
They are so welcoming.
She seems so young.
I can't wait to see her. She's such a lovely girl.
Rabbit is the one...
who ranked number one on the music chart shortly after her debut.
It's An Ji Young from Bolbbalgan4.
It's Bolbbalgan4.
My goodness.
(Bolbbalgan4 is on King of Mask Singer.)
You knew it was her.
- Kang Ta knew it? - Yes.
Right.
She's adorable.
She's so pretty.
Hi, I'm vocalist An Ji Young from Bolbbalgan4.
I'm glad to meet you all.
(They burst onto the music scene in April, 2016.)
(She's a talented vocalist in the hottest group, Bolbbalgan4.)
(They ranked top on the music charts with "Galaxy".)
(It's the Bolbbalgan4 syndrome. They ranked top in October.)
(They topped 4 major music charts only 6 months after their debut.)
(She's the driving force behind the Bolbbalgan4 syndrome.)
(She's a monstrous rookie of 2016.)
(She's a singer-songwriter with a pure voice.)
After you ranked number one on the music chart in October,
you're still remaining high in ranking for three months.
You must feel happy about it.
Yes, I'm happy every day.
You're happy every day.
Personally, I think...
almost every young person will be able to recognize her voice.
She's loved by so many people...
with such an unique voice.
- Right. - I'm a huge fan, too.
Kang Ta, you expected her to be Bolbbalgan4 last week, right?
Yes. Right now, I'm hosting a radio show these days,
and their songs have been played the most...
ever since I became a radio DJ.
- Really? - I get so many requests.
That's why I'm so used to her voice.
Her singing style is so unique.
I've never heard that kind of singing.
It somehow sounds a little similar to Korean classic music.
Her voice is so attractive.
Later in the future, you will become a singer...
whose voice will be recognized by everyone.
I think you'll become a great singer.
- I see. - Thank you.
However, you said that...
nobody recognizes you when you walk outside, right?
- Yes. - Really?
Yes, I take subways a lot.
Sometimes people ask me if I'm Bolbbalgan4 or not.
It's very embarrassing when I'm not wearing any make-up,
so I deny the fact that I'm Bolbbalgan4.
Then, they would accept that very quickly.
"I must have mistaken you for someone else."
"It can't be bolbbalgan4."
So I decided to come out here to show who Bolbbalgan4 is.
You sang Jung In's "Rainy Season" in Round Two.
What song were you going to sing if you went up to...
Round Three?
I was going to sing "Eat" by Zion.T.
Oh, that song.
It will have been a great combination.
- With her voice? - Yes.
Can you show us a little bit?
(Let's hear it.)
("Eat" by Zion.T)
Hello.
(She charms all men with a simple greeting.)
(An Ji Young uses her unique voice.)
(She creates a lovable version of the song.)
(Her voice is as sweet as chocolate.)
(This is fun.)
(Her performance makes us melt like cotton candy.)
(Her charm makes us smile.)
(Fluttering)
("Eat" by An Ji Young sounds refreshing like a 22-year-old.)
(Even if you're tired, don't forget to eat)
(Yes, Ma'am.)
(She has the complete package, which is music, voice, and emotion.)
(She's a talented rising star.)
(She has a lovely voice that will be loved even more in 2017.)
- She's adorable. - She is lovable.
Her voice is fresh like fruit.
(It's over.)
Thank you.
I am a bit disappointed.
Still, I'm happy that I was able to show more of myself.
I'm proud of that.
I'll keep doing my best.
I hope you keep loving my songs.
Please look forward to my singing career.
Queen Heart beat An Ji Young of Bolbbalgan4...
and moved on to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
We'll invite the two masked singers to the stage...
who will go up against the King of Mask Singer.
Please give them a big hand.
(The competition will begin.)
(Violin Man versus Queen Heart)
Violin Man and Queen Heart are...
the candidates for King of Mask Singer.
A male singer and a female singer are competing...
against each other in Round Three.
Violin Man.
It feels like a dream.
As I have made it this far,
I'll do my best to reach the top.
He honestly confesses...
his ambition openly.
Queen Heart, how do you feel about reaching Round Three?
My character is a queen.
I suddenly feel the urge to reach the throne.
I'll do my best. Thank you.
(Good luck, Queen!)
This is the final crucial moment.
- Tin Man. - Yes.
What did you think of their performances?
It was a perfect and breathtaking performance.
I feel especially tense today.
I feel threatened.
Do you feel like today is a critical moment for you?
Although every day was crucial, I think today is the most critical.
Do you have anything to say to these two masked singers?
I hope you show everything you prepared for today.
I'll be watching here with pleasure.
- Good luck! - Okay.
Round Three will decide the candidate for King of Mask Singer.
It will begin with Violin Man's performance.
(Violin Man starts first.)
(I can't wait.)
I think he'll do very well.
- I wonder which song he'll sing. - I can't wait to find out.
He will win if he chose the right song for this stage.
(Everyone's interested in what song he'll be singing next.)
(He has a captivating and special kind of voice.)
(Which song has Violin Man chosen?)
("That Is Only My World" by Deulgukhwa)
"That Is Only My World"?
Oh, my.
- He's going to sing that? - That song?
(The song is from Deulgukhwa's first album which was released in 1985.)
("That Is Only My World")
(The lonely voice shows the weight of life.)
This is new.
(Violin Man's song starts quietly.)
(Even his tremble can be felt through his sorrowful voice.)
(Setting off by oneself on a road of life)
(I have no regrets)
(All the dreams that I searched for)
(That is only my world)
(His voice sounds full of loneliness, yet it is powerful.)
I never imagined this.
It sounds even better as the song progresses.
I never thought he would sing the song like this.
(The weight of his life can be felt through his deep breath.)
(His story moves us from the bottom of our hearts.)
(His voice is both beautiful and husky.)
(There are two sides to his voice in each note he sings.)
(He won't let go of hope.)
(I have no regrets)
(All the dreams that I had as I laughed and cried)
(He has a strong power within him that can't be described with words.)
(He moved our soul even up until the last note.)
(His voice was more beautiful than any instrument for this song.)
(Standing ovation)
He sang it perfectly.
He has a unique voice.
It was nice.
He is amazing.
I didn't expect that side of him.
Competing against him...
is the woman who beat You Jeen and An Ji Young.
When you listen to her song,
your heart will beat fast.
Hit maker Queen Heart.
(Hitmaker Queen Heart)
(Lead the way.)
(I will show you the queen's dignity.)
(We have been waiting for you.)
- I am excited for her performance. - She should sing a cheerful song.
(She gave impressive performances in the previous rounds.)
(Her aura makes everyone nervous.)
(The panelists can only gulp in anticipation.)
(She will compete against Violin Man's intense sentiments.)
(What kind of performance did Queen Heart prepare?)
("Lonely Night" by Boohwal)
- She will sing "Lonely Night". - The title is on the screen.
(The screen shows the song which is difficult to sing.)
It's a difficult song to sing.
(She takes a different approach from the original song...)
(and shows pure sentimentality of a young girl.)
(My goodness.)
(Pure without a flaw,)
(her voice reaches the audience in a straightforward way.)
(Wow)
(Her performance puts a smile on the listeners' faces.)
(She has a clear and beautiful voice.)
(When the music picks up the pace,)
(Queen Heart moves to the rhythm.)
(This is fun.)
Yes.
(Even though her voice is still beautiful,)
(she added more strength to it.)
(Filled with comforting warmth...)
(is Queen Heart's performance of "Lonely Night".)
(Wow)
(On a lonely night,)
(her voice that's like a glass bead will console your soul.)
(She gushes out high-pitched ad-libs.)
(No matter how lonely one feels at night,)
(her voice will fill the void.)
(Wow)
(Yes)
(Wow)
(She hits high notes as if she wants to reach the sky.)
(Queen Heart's performance of "Lonely Night" awed everyone.)
(They cannot believe her impressive singing skills.)
(The panelists are amazed as well.)
I love you. I love you, Queen Heart.
(Wow)
I thought she chose a song that was too difficult.
- She had a hidden weapon. - That's right.
- That was insane. - My heart feels lighter.
- "Lonely Night". - I think I am in love.
I think I am in love. What should I do?
What should I do? She is lovely.
(I feel the same way.)
I love you.
I don't know why my throat hurts.
The two masked singers' performances came to an end.
They were impressive performances...
which elicited loud cheers.
Tin Man, you are aiming for the third win today.
What did you think?
Both masked singers gave touching performances.
I was so impressed.
Did listening to their performances...
renew your determination?
I will perform...
to the best of my abilities.
Why is your voice getting smaller?
Did you lose confidence?
- A little bit. - I look forward to your stage.
Cheer up.
(He comes to his senses.)
I did lose my confidence a little bit.
- You are honest. - Don't be like that.
However, I will focus on my performance.
We are looking forward to your performance.
Please move to the back of the stage...
and prepare for Final Match.
(Will he succeed in taking three consecutive wins?)
- Good luck, Tin Man. - It will be a great match.
Young Seok, it's difficult to predict who will win.
It's very difficult.
Violin Man sang...
"That Is Only My World".
To those of my generation, it is a sacred song.
The power of the original song...
gave us the energy to live.
(The 80s was a turbulent time.)
(Deulgukhwa's song reflected the mentality of the era.)
That's why...
we can't tolerate deviations from the original version...
because of the power behind the original song.
(Everyone lived with new dreams.)
We can't help but be critical.
When I listened to the intro...
being played at the original tempo...
It's "That Is Only My World". It's the original tempo.
- He shouldn't meddle with it. - It could be critical.
I couldn't help but wonder, "Why would he take this risk?"
"How does he plan..."
"to express the unpolished beauty of the original song?"
I was worried.
But to be honest, I liked his performance.
It was very nice.
The transition of the chords in the second verse...
wasn't awkward at all.
It showed his musical talent.
He didn't diminish the wild beauty of the original song.
(He gave a cry in the end.)
He didn't lose strength until the end...
and delivered the resonance of the soul...
that the original song has.
It was a lovely performance.
I want to applaud him.
(I want to applaud him.)
- I am satisfied. - You are satisfied.
Queen Heart.
She chose "Lonely Night".
When I heard the quiet intro,
I wondered if she had made a wrong choice.
Did you?
(The original song...)
(has a very cheerful intro.)
(However, Queen Heart's version had a calm intro.)
I was worried that she might start with a sad intro...
and switch to an ordinary rock performance.
I couldn't help but be suspicious.
Her class...
(What will he say?)
It's like that of Hercules.
(Thank you. Wait, what?)
What was that?
For goodness' sake.
He was looking for a word that rhymes.
Her class is like that of Hercules.
Also,
to give you my honest opinion,
she showed her all in the climax.
(I hate lonely nights.)
(Play with me.)
(Her voice spanned over four octaves.)
I couldn't find any faults in her performance.
She hit incredibly high notes...
without faltering once.
She showed an impressive performance...
without missing the delicate details.
(It looked like she was communicating with aliens.)
It was nice.
(I want to go home.)
(She is Queen Heart of Lonely Night Planet.)
(I hope everyone finds love before the end of the year.)
It's hard to predict who will be the winner.
What did you think, Kai?
I saw how Queen Heart was...
going crazy on stage in a good way.
- She was amazing towards the end. - Yes.
I thought she came to surprise us all.
She sang high notes like this.
It sounded like she was chanting a spell.
I'm sorry, but can you not do that?
- All right. - Please don't do that.
Kai seems to agree with me strongly.
It looked like she was losing herself near the end.
That's right. If she becomes the King of Mask Singer today,
I'll be looking forward to her stage next week.
I think she is one of the best vocalists ever.
As for Violin Man,
he has a very lonely voice.
It feels like he's fighting against the lonely wind.
That's what his singing conveys.
I believe his emotions were fully delivered...
to the audience today.
His version of "That Is Only My World"...
had the color of sunset with old memories...
and sad feelings.
He sang it as if the song was his own.
His singing just kept surprising me.
I feel like I shouldn't get paid for being on this show.
(What did you say?)
It feels like I should pay to listen to their songs.
- Queen Heart... - Don't say things like that.
- I'm sorry. - That puts us in...
- a bad position. - I'm sorry.
- What a strange guy. - I'm sorry I caused trouble.
- You should get paid. - Right.
- He's so frustrating. - I'll take it back.
(Seung Woo corrects his words.)
Gu Ra got angry.
Anyway, Queen Heart has...
defeated very strong competitors.
She had to compete with strong opponents.
Yes. But she made it to Round Three...
because we voted for her.
I don't think anyone regrets it even just a little.
It was such an amazing stage.
I was really happy to see all the three stages you prepared.
When Queen Heart started to sing "Lonely Night",
I was worried that she might have set...
the key too high.
- You thought it was too high. - I thought she'd lose.
But...
(It's not too high.)
(When everyone thought it was impossible...)
I was really surprised later.
I know. She sang extremely high notes.
I thought Violin Man's voice...
sounded emotional like a rhythm and blues singer,
but he sang a rock song on his last stage.
That's why I think his trench coat is reversible.
Did you say it's a reversible coat?
It's a trench coat on the outside,
but it must be a leather jacket on the inside.
You'll see a leather jacket with studs on the inside.
I'm saying he showed his rock spirit.
- I see. - If you open up that violin,
there will be an electric guitar inside.
He showed an extraordinary coexistence.
This is a very tough match.
You think he can sing various genres of music.
They both showed great performances beyond your expectation.
Now, I will announce...
the result of...
Round Three, Final Round.
The winner among these two will be...
the rival of the King of Mask Singer.
Violin Man has...
a very unique and extremely emotional voice.
Whereas Queen Heart overwhelmed the audience...
with her limitless singing ability.
Among these two masked singers, who will move on to Final Match...
which will determine the 45th King of Mask Singer? Let's find out.
(Let's find out the winner.)
(He has an emotional and soulful voice.)
(His powerful singing that boils up...)
(like a red sunset glow will rise above the world.)
(She has an explosive energy that is limitless.)
(Her powerful voice rules the stage.)
(Queen Heart showed the dignity of a master singer.)
Who will be the rival of Tin Man with a Burning Heart...
and the winner of this match?
The winner is...
Who will be the winner?
- Goodness. - Between Violin Man...
and Queen Heart,
who will win and become the rival of the king?
Please show us the result.
(The breathtaking tension...)
(makes them nervously tap their laps.)
(It's hard to watch.)
(Who will survive?)
(The winner is...)
Who will win this match and become the rival of the king?
Please show us the result.
The winner is...
(Hitmaker Queen Heart won.)
Queen Heart won.
(Worship the Queen.)
(Hail to the Queen Heart!)
(It's too bad for Violin Man.)
There wasn't anything we could do.
I voted for Violin Man.
She was too good.
That's true.
I was really surprised.
Queen Heart is the winner.
The score is 61 to 38.
With a score of 61 to 38, Queen Heart won this match.
She is now the rival of the King of Mask Singer.
Please move to the back of the stage and enjoy the king's stage.
Please give her a big round of applause.
(Your stage today was the best.)
(She seems dazed.)
I'm dumbfounded a little, but I'm so happy.
Since my performance is over,
so I should empty my mind and pray.
Violin Man's voice touched our souls.
Who could this man be?
Please come to the back.
He showed off his amazing singing ability.
Violin Man, please take off your mask,
and reveal your face.
(The stability in his voice is something only great singers have.)
(Maybe he's a singer-songwriter.)
(He sings every song in his own style.)
(His rock spirit is hidden behind his sentimental look.)
(It's possible that he is actually a true rocker inside.)
Reveal your face.
(Violin Man, who are you?)
(Screaming)
(They clap out of joy.)
He is...
Who is it?
- Why? - Who is he?
He is...
a talented singer-songwriter with six years of experience,
Kim Feel.
(Kim Feel, a singer-songwriter)
It was Kim Feel.
(It was Kim Feel.)
(They never imagined it.)
Gosh, what is this?
He came again.
He came to our show again.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello.
I was Irritating Butterfly before.
Today, I was Violin Man Is Being Tuned. I'm Kim Feel. Hello.
All right.
(He was on our show in February as Irritating Butterfly.)
(He sang with his mellow voice,)
(but as he had to compete with many legendary singers,)
(he disappointingly lost his match in Round One.)
(However,)
(he topped the music charts with unaired songs.)
(His emotional voice makes you reminisce the past.)
(He's a charming singer-songwriter...)
(who is loved by many music fans...)
(with a one of a kind voice and atmosphere.)
(Kim Feel who always satisfies our ears has returned.)
- When Miljenko Matijevic was here, - That's right.
many people were overshadowed by him.
- Feel was one of them. - Yes.
He failed in Round One,
so he came back to try again.
But if he had failed in Round One again,
it would've been embarrassing.
Didn't that pressure you?
I was under a lot of pressure.
Actually, rather than singing,
I thought I was falling behind when we showed our specialties.
- I felt like I did terribly. - Compared to your opponent?
Yes. People barely laughed.
I was really determined when I came here,
but I was really worried that I might have blown my chance.
I wanted to make people laugh.
Our voting isn't based on your specialties.
We vote before we see your specialties.
I know, but I felt really pressured.
My stage wasn't... This show makes me feel so nervous.
How does it feel to be here on our show again?
I was really...
regretful about my previous performance.
I was able to come to this show again...
and let you hear me sing with my sincere feelings.
- It made me feel so much better. - I see.
After you had a very disappointing defeat before,
people criticized us a lot that we have no taste in music.
Even among ourselves, we said things like,
"My goodness. We must've been crazy."
"How could we not recognize Feel's voice?"
You were one of the singers we hated to have let go.
I'm so happy and grateful that...
you decided to come to our show again.
I felt great to be here as well.
Thank you for giving me such great compliments.
- Jang Hyuk. - Feel is famous for...
his incredibly beautiful voice that...
you don't ever want to stop hearing it.
His voice captures women's hearts. But on today's stage,
he showed his wild side as a strong man.
I found it extremely charming.
If he shows his strong side as well as his emotional side,
I think his voice will sound so amazing.
- I really loved your stage today. - Thank you.
It was his second attempt today.
He relieved the regrets of failing in Round One the last time...
and showed us another legendary performance.
- Please give Feel a big hand. - Thank you.
(Please let us hear your great music more often.)
(Thank you.)
(Sighing)
- How do you feel? - Me?
I feel great.
I know I may sound a bit silly for saying that all the time,
but I do feel great.
It was a very happy competition for me.
I was glad that I got my second chance here.
I moved up to a higher level.
And I could meet more people and sing with them.
I was flattered because I felt...
that many people welcomed me.
It felt as if people were telling me that I'm doing a good job.
I was comforted and healed by that.
I was loved by many people on this show.
I will keep trying my best to sing great songs...
in return for that gift.
Thank you.
In Round Three,
Hit maker Queen Heart beat Kim Feel...
and moved on to Final Match.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
All we have left is Tin Man with a Burning Heart's...
defending performance.
What song will Tin Man with a Burning Heart sing...
for his third successive victory?
Final Match for the 45th King of Mask Singer...
will now begin with Tin Man's song.
(He must be nervous.)
Final Match for the 45th King of Mask Singer.
His ethereal voice resonates through the sky.
The 43rd, 44th King of Mask Singer, Tin Man with a Burning Heart.
(The King of Mask Singer with the golden mask...)
(enters the gate.)
(The true King of Mask Singer walks through the center of the stage.)
Wow.
He looks cool.
Go, Tin Man!
(The charismatic man takes off his robe.)
Look at this pants.
He's wearing pink pants.
He looks cute.
Good luck.
(Good luck.)
(Everyone can slowly feel the tension.)
(That's because...)
(he's singing against Queen Heart.)
(It makes everyone hold their breath.)
(What is Tin Man's weapon to fight against Queen Heart?)
("In Dream" by Lena Park)
(Cho Deok Bae released the song in 1986.)
(His cozy voice embraces the whole studio.)
(His lovely voice is like a warm hug.)
(His sweet voice makes the audience smile.)
(His delicate emotion is like a vivid picture.)
(It reminds people of old memories of love.)
(Everyone loves him.)
(His dreamlike voice is very sad.)
(Tin Man's fascinating voice...)
(invites people to a dreamy world.)
(He sings about his lost love.)
(Because he knows that he can never see her again,)
(he wishes to at least see her in his dream.)
(His voice is unrealistically sweet...)
(and bitterly lonesome.)
(Once he wakes up from his dream, he can't see her ever again.)
(So he falls into a deeper dream.)
(It was "In Dream" with Tin Man's dreamlike voice.)
(Everyone gives a standing ovation with great cheers.)
(The sad emotions linger on for a long time.)
His voice is just unbelievable.
It is beautiful.
My gosh. It's hard to choose one.
This is too difficult.
What should I do?
(Who should I choose?)
What am I going to do?
Final Match is over.
Kai, you seemed to be deeply immersed in Tin Man's song.
I've never seen the panelists...
so devastated before.
Devastated?
Right now, they're very calm with many mixed feelings.
Because they had a very difficult decision to make,
they couldn't even talk to each other.
We were just upset.
- Right. We were upset. - Who are we supposed to vote for?
- Are you a correspondent? - Pardon?
Are you a correspondent or what?
- Yes, I am. - Correspondent Kai.
What's the current status up there?
It is quite serious here.
Who do you think is the most displeased person?
I guess it is Cho Jang Hyuk.
- He got so worked up. - I see.
What am I supposed to do now?
I guess it is not easy to make up your mind.
Right. I'd like to tell the current King of Mask Singer something.
In order to get a good night's sleep,
we use aroma candles and various kinds of devices.
But the most important thing...
is to put our mind at rest.
Today, it felt like...
Tin Man gave us a precious gift for a good night's sleep...
with his emotions and delicate voice.
I think I can sleep well tonight...
feeling thrilled and excited thanks to him.
Young Seok, you seem pretty happy now.
Do you feel good?
To be honest, I want to give...
Tin Man a piggyback ride.
Was he that good?
If I had a seal that says "good job",
I'd stamp it all over his body.
(Good job.)
But I agonized over whether to vote for him or not...
because Queen Heart was unbelievably great.
While Queen Heart was unbelievable,
Tin Man was reliable and trustworthy...
when he sang his song.
So I had to think carefully...
before making any kind of decision.
Kang Ta, it was your first time seeing Tin Man sing, wasn't it?
Yes, it was my first time.
I can tell...
why he came up with the nickname, "Tin Man".
He uses a lot of scales as he sings.
It's like ad-libbing. He hits many different notes...
as he sings his song.
And every note he sang was so precise...
that it felt like...
he was using a machine or something.
It is a very difficult thing to do.
(He sounds like a machine.)
(How does he do that?)
I was very surprised by that.
It made me realize that this is Final Match for a reason.
Whoever wins,
I feel like we will feel sorry for the other person.
I think they already know how perfect both performances were.
- They performed very well. - Yes.
This is the third Final Match,
and Gu Ra looks unusually satisfied today.
There's a certain feeling you get after every performance.
When Queen Heart finished her performance,
I thought Tin Man was done for.
It almost felt like he was going to get disposed.
Right. You thought he was going to get disposed.
It was almost certain that he was heading for the trash can.
(As Queen Heart's performance reached its peak,)
(the excitement exploded.)
(Everyone thought the game was over.)
(Even without singing, he thought he had lost.)
- That was the vibe. - That's right. Before he performed.
But he sang "In Dream".
The moment I heard the first bar,
Dr. Kim started to assemble him back again.
(That's very lame.)
Just one bar made you think about reassembling him.
(The first bar was like his last will to Gu Ra.)
(And it made Gu Ra want to save him again.)
(He's alive.)
(He gets to wear his pink pants again.)
Yes. So this won't be an easy match.
- It will be nip and tuck. - It will be intense.
- Han Young? - I'll say what I felt as a viewer.
I'm sorry to compare them to food.
But Queen Heart's performance was like an amazing dish...
that included all the delicacies in one table.
On the other hand, Tin Man's performance...
was like a delicate course meal.
Rather than pinpointing on what was good about them,
I will say this. People say what you crave for...
is what you lack.
So I followed my instinct and chose someone that I wanted to...
- hear again next week. - That was your standard.
- Yes. -The one you want to hear again.
- Yes. - All right.
- They... - It was so intense...
- that I did a little survey. - Really?
So I did this.
(Who did you vote for?)
I've been asking people who they voted for.
- Really? - It's nip and tuck.
- It's nip and tuck. - But one person...
is leading by one vote.
Are you saying that there's only a one vote difference?

So please don't hesitate to criticize me. I will try...
to be a better person. Thank you.

She is...
a great vocalist who debuted 19 years ago.
She is Park Ki Young.
(The legend is here.)

(Now they understand why it was so intense.)
No wonder.
(It's nice to see you!)
Please say hi to the viewers.
Hello, everyone.
(She's a top-class vocalist who debuted in 1998.)
(She's the artist with 19 years of experience who everyone trusts.)
(She's got a parade of hit songs that are still loved.)
(Her fantastic voice touches our hearts.)

(Her song even topped classical music charts.)
(She's a talented musician who crosses all music genres.)
Her voice surpassed our expectations.
We all know how well she sings. But her last performance...
was really shocking.
I didn't know that she could handle...
such a wide vocal register.
It was unbelievable.
(Thank you.)
You sing unbelievably well,
but I heard that you once thought of...
quitting and retiring.
This Christmas,
my daughter turns four.
I thought I could...
raise my child and...
come back in a couple of months, just like other celebrities do.
But I ended up staying home for three years and watching her.
When I finally came back, nobody wanted to hire me.
It was getting worse and worse.
After going through that time,
I realized that I could be forgotten like this...
and thought I might not be able to perform again.
That's what I thought.
But thankfully, you called me.
And...
when I was preparing for this performance,
my daughter was so happy. Whenever I did an impression,
she cracked up and asked me to do it again.
Whenever I sang, she danced beside me.
Watching that,
I realized that the time I spent as a mother...
wasn't for nothing,
and thought that I could use the experience I went through...
to talk about life...
as I perform on stage.
I'm glad that I was able to convey those emotions in my songs.
Today...
(It was a great performance.)
Today, you were here as a singer.
You showed your daughter how you are as a singer.
It's really hard to be a working mom.
Cheers to all the working moms in Korea.
Thank you.
(Cheer up, all working moms.)
- All right. - With deep emotions and...
her amazing singing ability, she communicated with the audience.
She is a working mom and a diva, Park Ki Young. Give her a big hand.
Thank you. Thank you.
We love you, Park Ki Young.
(Her long journey came to an end at Round Three.)
(Her heart feels light.)
It's over.
I am a bit disappointed.
However,
I am glad that I showed everything I had prepared.
So I have no regrets.
I hope everyone stays healthy and happy.
I will return with more good news.
Thank you. I love you.
