Reaching beyond our expectations every time,
he keeps marching on his victory.
Music Commander won!
However, his throne continues to be threatened.
Surprising singing ability.
Touching performances.
Very close matches amongst competitive singers.
These singers might stand against Music Commander.
According to the online mobile survey,
netizens' expectation for the 26th King of Mask Singer is...
Music Commander, the 25th King of Mask Singer who received...
an overwhelmingly high score with his extraordinary voice.
Crash-land of Love and Space Agent Number Seven...
came in second side by side.
Will Music Commander successfully take his fifth win?
He is out.
Or will there be a new King of Mask Singer?
- The 26th King of Mask Singer is... - Why, why?
Surprising stages will be revealed now.
(King of Mask Singer)
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
This is the second hurdle on the way to the throne of 26th King.
The first match of Round Two,
Semi-finals, begins now.
(Round Two begins now.)
The first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
The one who beat singer Mina...
with her fantastic voice from another level.
You Know How to Dance.
(You Know How to Dance)
(Excited)
(You can do this!)
I like her.
(Laughing)
Did I say that out loud?
Singing alone will bring out her true colours.
(She is going to show her true talent whilst singing solo.)
I am excited for her performance.
(With a unique baritone voice and stable breathing,)
(she sang clearly in Round One.)
She was thinking, "I must sing well since I am a singer."
So it resulted in clear-cut performance.
You Know How to Dance's body...
made me think of Jang Yoon Jeong.
- Jang Yoon Jeong? - Her hair is very thin.
She is pondering whether to be treated for hair loss or not.
- For goodness' sake. - Maybe she is.
(However...)
(Her special talent upturned everyone's guesses about her age.)
(Sweet, yet scary, You Know How to Dance)
(What side of her will we see in Round Two?)
("Father" by In Sooni)
(She is not the cute and adorable girl which she was in Round One.)
(A song that describes a daughter's love towards her father)
(The father who took care of his girl more than anyone)
(The song sounds sadder with her unique voice.)
She knows how to sing.
(Her song is very touching.)
She has a unique vocalisation method.
(House band)
(Wow)
(Amazing)
(We can feel strong sentiments from the way she bends her voice.)
(Father, I miss you.)
(Wow)
(Father, I love you.)
(Her unique voice added deep sorrow to the song.)
That was so good.
She sings so well, doesn't she?
It feels like I'm here to be healed.
Her voice is incredible.
Singing against her,
he beat Kang Jun Woo of Rose Motel.
I will cover everyone with the colours of my voice.
With You on a Meadow.
(With You on a Meadow)
(His steps show confidence.)
(Wow.)
(He's so cool.)
He knows what girls like.
(He is here to steal women's hearts.)
I'm so curious about him.
I'm looking forward to his song.
(With You took all the ladies' hearts...)
(with his candy-like sweet voice.)
(In Round One, he chose to compete with a sentimental song.)
His song made me think women must feel...
protective towards him like a mother.
I saw Sweet Sorrow in him.
- Sweet Sorrow? - That's right. Me too.
Here I am drinking cheap coffee
(Upon hearing his mimicry of the singer Chang Ki Ha,)
I think he's Chang Ki Ha.
(the panellists are wondering if With You is Chang Ki Ha.)
(Also...)
(With You showed us his silly character...)
(with his weird dance moves.)
He is very playful. He must be BOOM!
- He's BOOM! - Okay.
(It is hard to guess who With You on the Meadow is.)
(Will his second performance give us a hint?)
("Fly" by Yi Sung Yol)
(Unlike in Round One, he starts with a deep and low voice.)
His voice is amazing.
Wow.
(He takes over the stage with his charisma.)
(His voice sends feeling of hope to the audience's heart.)
(Isn't he a different person?)
(He so cool.)
(Meadow's fabulous voice leaps into the sky.)
(His voice has been changed, like a boy becoming a man.)
He has a powerful voice.
Both of them are so good.
(Meadow interacts with the audience throwing himself around the stage.)
(Bravo!)
(His performance was as refreshing as flying over a meadow.)
(A big round of applause from the audience continues.)
He must be a musical actor.
- I think he is a different person. - He's a musical actor.
He is not a member of Sweet Sorrow. He is a musical actor.
The first match of...
Round Two is finished.
Now the fate of these two masked singers...
lies in your hands.
Without prejudice, please press the button.
Who will win the first match of Round Two?
All votes are in.
I wonder how the panellists liked their performances.
Young Seok, please tell us how you liked their songs.
Okay. You Know How to Dance has...
a very unique singing style.
Her voice is good for...
shouting out.
(Her voice is good for shouting out.)
And the way she sang breathing in...
- sounded like a folk song, minyo. - Minyo?
She sounded like a minyo singer.
Her breathing technique is so stable,
it seems like she trained her voice beneath a waterfall.
(Did she train her singing beneath a waterfall?)
I see.
Considering the previous and current performances of Meadow,
I think he is a musical actor.
- Is he a musical actor? - Yes.
I noticed that he pronounced the ends of the words short.
It was kind of a strategy to make the climax outstanding.
He knows how to impress people understanding the full picture.
- I see. - I think...
he learned how to do it through musical plays.
Okay. Hyun Chul. What did you find out in Round Two?
When I saw How to Dance singing last week,
I thought she was...
a trot singer or a gugak singer.
I'm pretty sure that she is a minyo singer...
because she is very good at singing the middle note.
And when she sang the part "More than anyone",
More than anyone
She sang like this,
which is a singing technique used in minyo.
(More than anyone)
(She sang with a lilting voice, bending the last notes.)
- Bending. - Yes, note bending.
From the way she bends the notes,
I was sure she was trained to sing minyo.
So I think she is a minyo singer.
And when Meadow sang,
he was like this.
(He sang with some kind of discipline.)
It looked like a musical actor finishing his line...
after singing "Aria" alone.
- Like a musical performance? - Yes.
And he showed great stage manners like Catgirl.
- He threw himself around the stage. - Yes.
And he sang the song looking at the audience's eyes.
So I'm pretty sure that he is a musical actor.
Young Seok and Hyun Chul have similar opinions.
- Yes. - I see.
From the way he sings,
I'm sure he is a musical singer.
In fact, Yi Sung Yol's songs are not that popular.
But the fact that he sang Yi Sung Yol's song means...
he is confident about his voice tone.
I think this song...
was a declaration of war against Music Commander in My Town.
I felt that way.
I think he is the handsome version of...
- Music Commander in My Town. - He'd look more handsome?
- It feels like that. - I see.
So it was like a declaration...
against Music Commander.
- And You Know How to Dance. - Yes.
When In Sooni sang "Father", she cried...
in "I Am a Singer".
It is a song about a daughter in her 50s...
missing her father.
Meanwhile, I'm guessing her father is still healthy.
I could feel that when she sang it.
It means she's being a good daughter...
in her early twenties.
- She is like the next Hyun Sook. - Right.
(Hyun Sook is known to be a good daughter.)
You mentioned about the song "Aria" earlier.
In fact, she is good at singing "Aria".
- Really? - Yes.
I prepared "Queen of the Night Scene".
"Queen of the Night Scene"?
Yes. It wouldn't be fun if I just sang the song.
So I will sing it whilst dancing waves.
- Will you sing Aria, dancing waves? - That's a good idea.
- He was good at waves last week. - That was wiggling on the floor.
Can he dance waves together with her when she sings?
- Will you do it? - Can he do that?
Okay. I will do that.
If it's possible, please show us.
(It is the joint performance of How to Dance and Meadow.)
(Meadow, let's dance together.)
(Okay. I'm ready.)
(Singing)
(She looks too shy.)
(Trembling)
(He's getting all the spotlight.)
(You are doing a good job.)
(He is funny.)
(Whilst she looks elegant,)
(Meadow looks carried away.)
He lied on the floor again! Go on, go on!
(Laughing out loud)
That was nice.
- He is amazing. - As I look at her,
I don't think she knows how to dance.
- She wants to know how to dance. - I see.
When you look at her posture,
- she is so upright. - Is she?
(She was standing upright even when she danced.)
Jang Hyuk, what do you think?
I said she was trained to be a singer last week.
But she wasn't trained to be an idol singer.
She got a lesson for chang, another type of pansori.
If that's not the case,
she would have studied Korean classical music, gugak...
and became an idol singer.
There are some idol singers who studied gugak.
- She is an expert. - There is this group "Stellar".
- Stellar! - And they mostly sing...
sexy songs with powerful performances.
As far as I know, Gayoung of Stellar studied gugak.
- Gayoung! - She can be Gayoung.
Yes.
(Stellar is a four-member girl group.)
(Is Gayoung who studied gugak How to Dance?)
- Gayoung of Stellar? - It's good that she is here.
- Gayoung. - You are like a team.
- Freeze, Gayoung! - One guesses, the other answers.
Then Meadow will show what he is good at.
He prepared vocal mimicry.
And his vocal mimicry will be very unique.
You will be surprised.
Lee Jung Jae from "Assassination".
(He will mimic Lee Jung Jae from the movie "Assassination".)
Many idol singers imitate his voice these days.
How does it go?
It is something he says in the court.
- Show us how to do it. - I can't do that.
- Many idol singers... - Just do it.
"Listen to me." It is like this.
- That was good. - When he gets older in the movie.
- Show us more. - In the court, towards the end.
- Show us a little bit more. - A little more, please.
"Is this battle about me?"
("Is this battle about me?")
"You didn't see this coming." You should do this, too.
Yes, it's something like that and many idol singers imitate him.
Did you prepare the line that So Hyun just did?
Yes.
In 1911, I got shot here, trying to assassinate...
Proconsul Terauchi in 1911. It has two holes.
- You got him. - Oh, no.
This is Lee Jung Jae from "Assassination".
In 1911, I got shot here, trying to assassinate...
Proconsul Terauchi in 1911.
There are two bullets.
That's it.
Who do you think is better?
Wait, So Hyun. Let's gather some data.
Amongst idol singers, who does that well?
- Min Ho did the impersonation, too. - Min Ho? Who is he?
- And Lee Seung Hoon of Winner, too. - Seung Hoon?
But I don't think Winner would've come on this show.
- Baekhyun did this, too. - Baekhyun?
But I think he is taller than Baekhyun of EXO.
- I have a hunch. - Yes?
- I have a hunch. - Do you?
- Yes. - Who is Meadow?
He is an all-round entertainer. He's good at acting, singing...
and he's also good in reality shows.
Who is the person?
He's Jung Yong Hwa of CNBLUE.
Jung Yong Hwa!
(Jung Yong Hwa of CNBLUE)
(Is the all-round entertainer Jung Yong Hwa the Meadow?)
Jung Yong Hwa.
I need to ask you this. Can Jung Yong Hwa do this impersonation?
Jung Yong Hwa impersonates Park Young Kyu.
Father-in-law, my stomach aches.
- It's funny. - You did well.
That's a famous line.
Please ask him if he can impersonate Park Young Kyu.
I can do his impersonation in two different versions.
- In two versions. - In novice and expert versions.
- Will you show us the two versions? - Yes.
All right.
Father-in-law, come on.
- It seems to be the novice version. - Is that novice version?
- Show us the expert version now. - Expert version.
Ouch!
(My stomach aches.)
My stomach aches.
I think he's Jung Yong Hwa.
- He is as good as him. - Experts do something different.
Next, he will impersonate Song Kang Ho in "The Throne."
Rice chest...
Bring me the rice chest.
(Can he impersonate Song Kang Ho's unique voice?)
Put him in the rice chest.
(Put him in the rice chest.)
It's not a national affair but a family one.
(Amazing)
Excellent.
- He is an idol singer. - Pardon?
- He is an idol singer? - Is he?
- He sure is. - Can an idol singer do this well?
If he's a musical actor, he wouldn't have practised these impersonations.
You keep saying Meadow must be an idol singer.
Lastly, he'll imitate a conversation...
between Na Moon Hee and Lee Soon Jae...
in the sitcom "Unstoppable High Kick".
- She gave me sweet potato jewel... - It's jewel sweet potato.
Jewel sweet potato!
Jewel Sweet Potato! Are you satisfied?
Honey, I want to...
eat sweet potato jewel.
It's not sweet potato jewel. It's jewel sweet potato!
Jewel sweet potato! Are you satisfied?
Thank you.
- He must be an idol singer. - Are you certain now?
He sure is. So Hyun, what do you think?
Think hard. Will you?
You are the only one who can figure this out. You are our hope.
- Maybe he's a member of Block B. - I agree with her.
- Right. - Block B?
Taeil of Block B appeared on this show before.
And Jaehyo of Block B has a similar voice with Taeil.
- Jaehyo? - She's right.
(Is Jaehyo of Block B Meadow?)
- He maybe Jaehyo of Block B. - I thought so, too.
- Jaehyo? - I'll go with these two ladies.
- He's Jaehyo. - I see.
- I think they are right. - All right.
Now, we'll announce the result...
of the first match of Round Two.
Between these two attractive masked singers,
who will be able to...
perform one more time?
Let's find out the winner right now.
Who is it?
(With a unique voice tone and stable breathing,)
(You Know How to Dance expressed her deep feelings.)
(With a deep and rich low voice that he didn't put on in Round One,)
(Meadow presented a dramatic performance.)
The winner won by...
only five votes.
- It was a close match. - Very close.
The winner of this match is...
The winner is...
Oh my gosh.
The winner is...
(Who will be the winner...)
(by only five votes?)
The winner to move on to Round Three is...
The female masked singer won.
You Know How to Dance won.
(Since both the singers deserved a win,)
(there are both cheers and sighs.)
(Congratulations!)
With a final score of 52 to 47,
How to Dance has defeated...
Meadow by five votes.
You Know How to Dance will...
advance to Round Three, the Final Round.
Please move to the backstage now.
Please give her a big hand.
I thought I'd be eliminated in Round Two.
So I practised two songs.
I have to hurry and practise another song now.
Thank you.
- Seong Ju. - Yes?
After all that we made him do,
are you eliminating him now?
- It's not my choice. - We used him well.
It seems the audience had a hard time...
deciding the winner.
(With all his efforts,)
(he squirmed on the floor.)
He is lying down. Go on, go on!
(He did his best, but...)
It's not a national affair but a family one.
There are two bullets.
Father, come on.
(He impersonated a person after another.)
Jewel Sweet Potato! Are you satisfied?
The score was 52 to 47.
The panellists' opinion hasn't been conflicted this much before.
Meadow gave us many laughters.
We're so curious about who he is.
Especially this time, he will remove his mask...
whilst singing the song...
he had prepared for Round Three.
It's because we are thankful for your effort.
We'll listen to his song he prepared for Round Three.
- He deserves it. - Yes.
Who could he be? Please give him a big round of applause.
(Last chance to guess who Meadow is.)
- I saw Sweet Sorrow in him. - A member of Sweet Sorrow?
- That's it. - She's right.
He must be a musical singer.
- He must be an idol singer. - Are you certain, now?
- He sure is. - He's Jung Yong Hwa of CNBLUE.
Jung Yong Hwa.
He may be Jaehyo of Block B.
- Jaehyo? - Yes, she's right.
- Are you sure? - Jaehyo?
(Who are you?)
("Wet Firewood" by Koo Chang Mo)
I think he's a musical actor.
Right. He's a musical actor.
- He is a singer. - He sings...
his heart out.
(Whoever he is, his voice touches people's hearts.)
(Deep sadness is palpable in his mellow and calm singing.)
Now, please remove your mask...
and show us who you are.
(Who can Meadow be?)
This is...
(Incredible)
He is...
- What? - Who is he?
He is...
the actor who had the role of...
Hyeri's brother in "Answer Me 1988",
Choi Seong Won.
(The panellists are struck dumb with incredulity.)
(Their jaws drop.)
Oh, that guy from "Answer Me 1988".
(She screams.)
He's No Eul.
- Oh, it's Choi Seong Won! - No Eul!
(This is unbelievable.)
(He strikes hearts of women even after his mask is removed.)
(His powerful voice leaves everyone speechless.)
(His delicate emotion draws complete attention.)
(It was a song of warmly embraced lonely love.)
(This actor sure can sing!)
(Endless applause goes on for him.)
He's so good.
Isn't he popular these days?
(He is loved by people of all generations.)
He's from "Answer Me 1988".
He played as Hyeri's little brother in...
the drama "Answer Me 1988",
which was very much loved recently.
Choi Seong Won was With You on a Meadow.
Hello, I'm Choi Seong Won.
Nice to meet you.
Hey, why were you so late?
I'm starving.
(His mellow voice resonated...)
(softly in the drama.)
(He's a member of a choir "Nella Fantasia".)
(Even the conductor Kolleen Park appreciated him.)
(He's also known as a musical actor.)
Didn't you sing in the drama as well?
Yes, I did. I played a role of a student...
going through a preliminary round of Countrywide Singing Contest.
Right. Did you get any professional singing lesson?
I didn't have any professional singing lesson,
but I've always loved singing and listening to songs.
That's why I majored in the theatre and film studies.
And by chance, I made a debut on a musical piece.
How could an actor sing that well?
- You're a musical actor, of course. - Yes.
But a singer...
- must move the listeners' hearts. - I see.
Your song has the ability to make...
people's hearts thump with excitement.
I thought no one other than singers could do such a thing.
Right.
(You did very well.)
You sing so well,
but I heard that you've practised a lot...
for a moment when you take off your mask as you sing...
your song in the second round.
- Yes, I did. - Why did you do that?
I practised taking the mask off the most.
I really wanted to sing on this stage,
so I was afraid that I might slip any moment...
if I take off my mask at a wrong timing.
That's why I practised taking the mask off.
Is there any reason why...
you wanted to sing on "The King of Mask Singers"?
Above all, my parents love this show.
And I wanted to sing on this stage because...
I wanted to make them proud.
Would you leave your parents a message?
Mother, father,
here I am, your son.
You stay tuned to this show...
at this time, every Sunday.
I did well. I sang all three songs I've prepared.
I miss you already.
I'll be home soon. I love you.
- He is so sweet. - I agree.
- He's a good son. - Exactly.
Today, he was not the character Sung No Eul.
He moved us with his own voice of Choi Seong Won.
Please give him a big round of applause.
- Thank you. - Well done.
(We expect to see you more.)
(He seems light-hearted.)
The power of the mask is...
just amazing.
Actually, today's my birthday. 8th of March.
But I was on stage today...
and showed everything I've practised so hard for...
to everyone, to the fullest.
Pleasure I got today surpasses any other gifts I've got.
It will be cherished in my heart for a long time.
I really want to say thank you.
I hope to remember the energy...
I got today.
I hope to release that energy on stage...
by the end of this year.
As a result of Round Two,
You Know How to Dance defeated Choi Seong Won...
and advances to Round Three.
Now, it's the second match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
She defeated Kim Jeong Hoon.
She's going to take all the luck on earth.
It's Space Agent Number Seven.
(Space Agent Number Seven)
(She's walking gently along the aisle.)
(She enters like refreshing wind of spring.)
(Everyone pays attention.)
(She's a mysterious space agent who came to earth for an espial.)
She's a terrific singer.
She sings very well.
I'm very excited.
(Her sweet voice is like the spring wind.)
(But...)
(she has eccentric sense of humour.)
- You laugh a lot. - It's so funny.
She seems like a professional singer.
Considering her expertise, she is not in her 20s.
She reminded me of Park Hwayobi.
(Her identity is still veiled.)
(What song would she sing to enchant us?)
("In Dream" by Lena Park)
(Through a lane of dream,)
(a lover from the past are encountered...)
(only in a dream.)
(Her soulful voice absorbs...)
(everyone to her song.)
(Warm solace makes you wish you could dream forever.)
(Stay like this.)
(Stay forever.)
(Powerful vocal delivery captures the audience.)
(Pain of break up fills our heart.)
(When she opens her eyes,)
(she sees the familiar scene of separation.)
(It's a heartbreaking love story.)
(Her moving performance absorbed everyone.)
(Young Seok was deeply touched.)
- She is definitely a rival. - She could match up to the King.
Who is she?
She's amazing.
(She's amazing.)
She is such a good singer.
She is so good.
The opponent who beat the baseball player Lee Jong Beom says...
there is no crash-land in his song.
Here comes Crash-land of Love.
(Slipping)
(He already looks unstable.)
(How cute.)
(He has a cute side...)
(contrary to his manly looks.)
I think he will sing well, too.
Everyone's so good today.
(His high note has no limit.)
(Crash-land has a powerful voice.)
His voice is one that all musicians would envy.
He sounds like a rocker, especially a shouter.
F.
I think it's Han Sung Ho.
(We haven't seen all of his true colours yet.)
(But this time he is going against Number Seven,)
(who is a competitive rival.)
(Will Crash-land step over this hurdle?)
("My Own Grief" by Kim Don Kyoo)
(Like Number Seven did,)
(Crash-land chose to sing a sad love song.)
This is a difficult song to sing.
(A man who has to die...)
(and leave his lover behind.)
My goodness.
(He expresses his grief...)
(with his mournful voice.)
(His strong expression...)
(is absorbing everyone into his song.)
(His grief can be felt in our hearts.)
- Wow. - That was nice.
(His grief can be felt in our heart.)
That was amazing.
- I don't think that's him. - He isn't.
- He is too good to be him. - Right.
That isn't him.
- He is definitely a singer. - Totally.
(It's too early to be surprised.)
(With his exquisite voice,)
(he maneuvers freely between falsetto and chest voice.)
(His last moment...)
(before leaving this world)
(His mournful performance was like a handwritten letter.)
(Wow)
- The catharsis. - That was so refreshing.
- Wow. - I feel so cool.
- Wasn't that refreshing? - It was.
That was cool like it helped with my digestion.
He is a rocker.
I don't know who I should choose.
The second match of Round Two is now over.
Which masked singer...
moved your heart more?
Press number one for Space Agent Number Seven,
and number two for Crash-land of Love.
Who will the panellist vote for?
The winner of this match...
will go against You Know How to Dance...
in Final Round.
- This is hard to choose. - All votes are in.
Young Seok, what did you think?
Can I talk about Number Seven?
- Of course. - Talk about the gentleman first.
Last week you embarrassed yourself.
I should have saved up all my compliments...
and given them to Number Seven.
It's a chronic disease.
- He's said that 15 times already. - It's a chronic disease.
He says it all the time.
Say whatever you want.
Firstly, Crash-land...
Okay, Crash-land first.
Whilst the original song is sad but gentle,
Crash-land's song expressed sentiments that were...
rougher and stronger.
Do you like his voice colour?
- Yes, he has a unique voice. - Okay.
I think I need more adjectives...
to compliment Number Seven.
(He needs more adjectives to compliment her.)
(He can see only Number Seven.)
(Lovely atmosphere)
(Glaring)
- A word "Beautiful" isn't enough. - He has a chronic disease.
- It's a chronic disease. - Yes.
I can't help it because she always...
performs way beyond my expectations.
So I even wanted to thank her for that.
- Were you that touched? - Yes. I really appreciated it.
Is that why you cried so hard?
(Is that why you cried so hard?)
I saw him. He was sobbing.
- Did he cry again? - Yes, while no one was watching.
(Crying)
(A sensitive and romantic middle-aged man)
(He applauds with all his might.)
She was really good though.
- She was so good. - So good that you wanted to cry?
Jang Hyuk, what is your analysis?
To start with Number Seven,
her breathing is more than enough.
For example, she would sing like this.
(She lets out the remaining breath.)
He hugs me
(Breathing out)
She kept breathing out at the end of each verse.
- She has a long breath. - She has a great lung capacity.
Her lung capacity must be great.
She has got to be a singer with great skills and experience.
Her performance by itself was heart-wrenching,
and when she turned her head at the end...
(He flips his head.)
- when she did this, - Yes.
I thought my heart was going to explode.
(His heart is fluttering.)
- She completely captivated you. - She is a very charming singer.
Her voice was so powerful. Thank you for the performance.
Okay. Now Crash-land of Love.
Last week, I guessed that he is...
my senior or a singer who was active when I was.
Especially after hearing him sing "My Own Grief",
I immediately recognised...
who he is.
The first time I saw him...
was at a concert.
He sang "She's Gone" at the time.
(Surprised)
"She's Gone"?
"She's Gone" by Miljenko Matijevic?
(His high-pitched voice sounds like reaching the spiritual realm.)
I hadn't seen...
a male singer in Korea...
who could sing "She's gone" perfectly back then except him.
I agree with Jang Hyuk.
Let me tell you his personal history.
You are adding something to his opinion.
He used to run...
a bar near the southern part of Seongsu Bridge.
- Southern part of Seongsu Bridge? - How did you know that?
Yes, he did.
How did he know that?
- Behind the bridge. - Okay.
Did you run a bar near the southern part of Seongsu Bridge?
(Hesitant)
I have a sad memory about Seongsu Bridge.
- A sad memory? - A long time ago,
I broke up with a woman I loved...
on Seongsu Bridge.
("She's gone" was the song he listened to all night long...)
(at a bar near the Southern part of Seongsu Bridge.)
(She's gone.)
My mind just went blank.
Really?
The bar is only in our memories.
He has a sad memory about it.
Anyway, I know him very well.
- I know him well, too. - A bar near Seongsu Bridge.
- So Hyun, do you know him? - Yes.
I really like his voice.
I think Music Commander should be cautious about him.
Crash-land can be his biggest rival.
(Let's do it if you want.)
(He is Music Commander's biggest rival.)
(But first,)
(he should defeat Number Seven.)
If he is the person I'm thinking about, Music Commander's his junior.
- I agree. - Yes.
And he is...
very good at singing live. So he will be Music Commander's rival.
Then So Hyun, Gu Ra and Jang Hyuk,
can you name his initials at the same time?
In 1, 2 and 3.
- C. - C.
Wow.
His name starts with C, who is a good singer.
But there are a lot of people whose names start with C.
Can you name his second initial at the same time?
In 1, 2 and 3.
- J. - J.
The last initial. In 1, 2 and 3.
- H. - H.
Okay. His name is C.J.H.
It is their opinion.
I also think...
he is one of my favourite singers.
- Do you know who he is? - Yes.
- Who is that? - It is Y.
- Y? - Y?
- Is it his last name? - I think he is Yarn.
Yarn? I see.
Yarn? Okay.
(He made his debut in 2000 as a great vocalist.)
(He is great at singing high-pitched tones.)
(Is the rock ballad singer Yarn Crash-land?)
- Yarn? - He has a different opinion.
- He can be Yarn. - You guess he might be Yarn.
Okay.
What about Number Seven?
I think she is the person I'm thinking about.
Do you know who she is?
- Yes, I think I know her. - Do you?
But I can't tell you.
Why not?
I'm pretty sure it was her voice.
Can you tell me the initials of her name?
Okay. S.Y.
- S.Y.? - Yes.
Seon Young?
- Shin Young? - It should be S.U.
- What? - What are you doing?
Tell us exact initials of her name.
Do you want me to tell you the name?
Yes.
Isn't she Soyou?
- Soyou! - Soyou?
Soyou of SISTAR?
- Soyou? - Yes.
Are you sure?
- Yes. - 100 percent sure?
- He failed. - Sandeul.
- He is out. - He'll take a back seat next week.
He's out.
- She can be Soyou, though. - You are out.
I'm sure she's not Soyou.
- She can never be Soyou. - Okay, then.
I will announce the result...
of the second match of Round Two.
It was neck and neck.
The winner was decided by the margin...
of only seven votes.
If six of you changed your mind,
the result could have been different.
Then who would be the winner of this match?
Show us the result.
(Who will be the winner?)
(With her appealing voice,)
(Number Seven captivated everyone's heart.)
(With his explosive high-pitched voice,)
(he showed the standard of a rock ballad song.)
Who will be the winner of the second match?
Who is the winner?
The winner is...
(I can't watch this.)
Who is the winner?
(No one can predict the result.)
(What is the result of this neck and neck match?)
Space Agent Number Seven versus Crash-land of Love.
Who is the winner with the margin of seven votes?
Number Seven wins!
(Crash-land of Love lost the match!)
(This is unbelievable.)
(We are so proud of you, Number Seven!)
(Young Seok was waiting for the result clasping his hands.)
(Excited)
(Happy)
The female singer won again.
With a final score of 53 to 46, Number Seven defeated Crash-land...
and moved on to Round Three.
Please give her a round of applause.
(Crash-land of Love will reveal his identity soon.)
Number Seven won.
(She won by a narrow margin.)
I thought I would lose, so I was thinking about what to say.
I will do my best for the next round.
Panellists raved about Crash-land of Love.
Who is Crash-land of Love then?
Please move to the rear of the stage...
and take off your mask to reveal your identity.
I think he's been a rock ballad singer for a long time.
- C.J.H. - C.J.H.
He is Yarn.
- Yarn? - Yes.
Crash-land of Love, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(Startled)
He is...
Is that him?
I can see that's him from the back.
He is...
Who is he?
Please reveal your identity.
Crash-land of Love, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
He is...
a singer who sang "Rhapsody of Sorrow"...
Choi Jae Hoon!
- Jae Hoon! - Wow!
Jae Hoon!
Wow, they were right.
Wow!
C.J.H.
How did they know it was me?
(He made his debut with the first album "Turn Away" in 1994.)
(He has a lot of hit songs like "Unforgettable You",)
("Rhapsody of Sorrow" and "After Letting You Go".)
(He's got a great voice which sounds very mournful.)
(His songs brought a revolution in the Korean pop.)
(He is the legend of rock ballad.)
Everything they said about me...
- was correct. - Really?
I was very surprised to hear that.
Did you run a bar near Seongsu Bridge?
Is it true?
- It's true! - Yes. It's true.
I know. It's true.
It's true.
I knew about it.
But I couldn't say he was wright.
I didn't know what to say.
You were startled.
Yes, I was very startled.
He already revealed your identity.
I was baffled.
With all due respect,
some people say you quit singing.
Choi Jae Hoon doesn't sing anymore.
- Okay. - I heard some people saying that.
I wonder if it is true.
I hold a concert once a year...
only for my fans who care about me.
That's all I do as a singer.
And I have another job.
What kind of job are you doing?
I'm not sure if I can say this or not.
We are just curious.
- Yes. - We want to know that...
as a fan of your song, "Unforgettable You".
I know.
It is something about distribution business.
- Distribution business? - Yes.
Is it going well?
- It's going well. - I see.
Is it better than the bar business?
The bar was...
- a scam. - Really?
- Yes. - I'm sorry.
It was a scam.
Why did you bring that up?
- It is a sad story to me. - I'm sorry.
If you answer the question, he will keep asking about it.
I'm sorry about that.
I'm glad that the new business goes well.
Park So Hyun asked the question earlier.
And everyone is curious about it.
What is your plan as a singer?
I don't have any special plan...
as a singer for now.
But I wanted to show that...
I'm still good at singing...
and I can sing whenever I want.
I hope we can get to see you...
singing on TV more often...
taking this programme as a good opportunity.
I heard there is something you want to say to your parents.
It seems many parents love this programme.
My mother watches this programme...
and talks about singers very often.
I guess...
she does that because she wants to see me in the programme.
She doesn't know I'm here.
She'd be surprised to see me on TV.
And I will be watching with her at the moment.
(I will be watching with her at the moment.)
She'd be very surprised to see you sitting there.
- I guess so. - I see.
She will be very proud of you.
Would you like to say hi to your mother?
Mum, I'm sorry I've made you worried about me all the time.
I'm doing well so you don't have to worry about me.
There's no need to worry.
Let's live happily together for a long time.
- I love you. - All right.
(Let's live happily together for a long time. I love you.)
He is the legend of Korean rock ballad scene.
We'll look forward to seeing Choi Jae Hoon more often.
Let's give him a big hand.
- Go, Choi Jae Hoon. - Thank you.
(Thank you.)
(You were great.)
(Jae Hoon looks a bit excited.)
(Cho Jang Hyuk was waiting for him.)
I liked it. I really liked your performance.
Thank you.
Your voice is stuck in my ears.
Really? How could you...
know so well?
Goodness.
It's not that I lost my passion for music.
To sing a three-minute song on stage, you have to...
invest a tremendous amount of time and make an album.
I couldn't make that much time.
Besides, I was pretty busy.
I've been satisfied with holding a concert once a year.
This is not much, but I hope...
this could be a small gift for my fans.
Space Agent Number Seven has defeated Choi Jae Hoon...
and moved on to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
The contenders of Round Three, Final Round.
The last two survivors.
We'll invite the two masked singers.
Please give them a big hand.
(Round Three)
(How to Dance versus Number Seven)
They both are female singers.
(Competition between two female singers.)
All right. First,
we'd like to hear how you feel ahead of Round Three.
Honestly, I aimed to go to Round Two.
I'm grateful for having a chance to sing all the three songs I prepared.
Okay.
(Now is Number Seven's turn.)
I already emptied my mind...
before going to the stage for Round Two.
I guess this is my last time to sing here.
So I want to sing comfortably. I felt pressured very much.
Okay. Can't you still hold your laughter?
(She bursts out in laughter.)
She laughs a lot.
I didn't say anything to her.
But she's still laughing.
Hi, Music Commander.
Your competitors are both female.
Yes.
I feel excited now.
- Are you excited? - Yes.
- They seem very shy right now. - Go on.
But I think they will completely change once they begin to sing.
So I'm not letting my guard down.
All right. If you win one of them, you're achieving five wins in a row.
Do you prefer one of them as your contender?
I wish both of them could win this round.
But, I think the mask of one of them won't make it easy...
to put the golden mask over it.
- Both of the masks? - Yes.
You have a point.
The staff can adjust the mask.
I think you don't have to worry about the masks.
- Oh, do you think so? - Yes.
Okay.
(He lets out an embarrassed laugh.)
Anyhow, he looks a bit excited...
as he said himself.
Between these two female singers,
who will be able to fight against Music Commander?
Round Three, Final Round.
We'll see How to Dance's performance first.
Please give her a big hand.
I'm looking forward to her performance.
(What song will How to Dance sing...)
(and threaten King of Mask Singer?)
("You and I" by Park Bom)
(She is more cheerful than in Round Two.)
(She sings as powerfully as Park Bom.)
(Her singing adds more Korean colour.)
(He rides the rhythm.)
(She does, too.)
Her voice opens up like this.
Wow, my ears hurt.
(Her song makes everybody feel cheerful as well.)
(Her English pronunciation sounds familiar.)
(Immersed)
(Their arms dance.)
(Her voice is powerful.)
(She moves from high notes to low ones in no time.)
(She freely sings the R&B song in chest voice.)
(Everybody enjoys her delightful performance.)
(It was a special R&B performance of How to Dance.)
I loved it.
She's so cute. Adorable.
- She sounds like a minyo singer. - You're right.
She seems like a minyo singer.
I can't believe how powerful her voice is.
Incredibly powerful.
Her opponent beat Kim Jeong Hoon and Choi Jae Hoon.
She has the most powerful voice in the universe.
Space Agent Number Seven.
(I'm here to move everybody on earth.)
(I'm the Number Seven.)
(Welcome.)
(We've been waiting for her.)
Go Seven!
I'm really looking forward to hearing her.
(She's filled with expectations.)
(Number Seven raises expectations.)
(But could she...)
(outperform How to Dance?)
("Don't Live Like That" by Park Mi Kyung)
(Wow!)
(The rhythm makes you dance.)
(How will she sing "Don't Live Like That"?)
(Her voice is powerful,)
(sexy and husky.)
(Her singing is passionate and thrilling.)
(Number Seven enchants the panellists.)
(Funk energy fills the stage.)
(Panellist has fallen into a trance already.)
She's so sexy!
(It's ultimate soul funk.)
(She's so cool!)
(I love her, too!)
(We sense the birth of a new diva.)
(Cheering)
(That was awesome!)
I love you!
(I love you.)
- She's amazing. - She's so good.
I'm exhausted although I didn't even sing.
The third match of the Final Round has ended.
Between the two masked singers,
who will be chosen to...
compete against Music Commander?
All votes are in.
How did you like Final Round, Music Commander?
It was just as I expected.
I knew they would transform into someone else.
- Number Seven, especially. - Number Seven.
She could barely talk,
but became a whole new person when she started to sing.
- I suggest that we change the rule. - How?
- The rules? - Can the King of Mask Singers...
not hear the other singers sing?
- I get so nervous. - Right.
I can feel my hands shaking.
Just go to the toilet.
- I went to the toilet. - I see.
In fact...
- In fact... - I didn't have to know that.
In fact, this is for the King of Mask Singer to see the level of...
his competitors. It's out of goodwill.
But it must be burdensome to you.
- It is, very much. - Because they are so good.
I see.
Now, Music Commander would return to the waiting room...
and prepare for Final Match.
Please go to the backstage. Please give them a big hand.
(See you soon.)
(Wait!)
Wait, wait.
(Wait.)
Number Seven, you shouldn't go.
Why would you go now?
She's hilarious.
She's so different from when she sings.
She's very shy, too.
I'd like to hear from the panellists.
Young Seok, how did you enjoy?
As for How to Dance, there's a genre called crossover.
It's the same as fusion.
Crossover is created...
when two people on stage perform together.
But she managed to pull it off alone by herself.
As for Number Seven, she added groove to the music,
but still preserved funk's distinctive feature, stickiness.
It's like double-sided sword.
That surprised me very much.
When I heard Number Seven,
I felt like listening to Aretha Franklin,
an empress of soul funk.
(It's as if Aretha Franklin, a queen of soul funk was on the stage.)
It was as if I was listening to her singing on this stage.
She's full of energy.
My heart bounced listening to your song.
- Thank you. - I see you are touched.
Two stages differ greatly,
so I enjoyed both very much.
As for How to Dance,
her steps weren't that of a trained idol singer.
I guess she's a gugak singer,
since she was so full of Korean emotion.
And as for Number Seven, I think she's a very experienced singer.
I think she would be a female singer in her 30s...
with lots of on-stage experience.
So you don't think there is an idol singer between them.
- No, I don't think so. - Okay.
I'd like to hear Sandeul's opinion.
- I go back and forth. - Did you change your mind?
I was so sure.
- I was positive that she's Soyou. - Okay.
- But now, I don't think so. - Oh, you don't?
Number seven uses...
every skill such as breathing technique, tempo control...
and vocalisation skills.
I enjoyed her performance...
with my heart so light...
that I felt like I was walking on the cloud.
- Right. - And...
she's definitely not Soyou,
- but could be a former idol singer. - A former idol singer.
She could be a member of the first generation idol group,
who is a musical actress now.
What do you think of How to Dance?
As for You Know How to Dance,
- she's not an idol. - Isn't she?
She performed with me on stage.
- Did you sing with her before? - Yes.
- Who is it? - Can you tell us her initials?
(Who is the girl Sandeul is talking about?)
(Sandeul...)
Get the initials right this time.
- You were criticised a lot before. - Okay.
- It's S, - S!
Right.
- Another S. - S and S.
- And H. - S.S.H.
Oh, no.
S.S.H. Gu Ra doesn't seem to approve again.
- He's criticising him again. - He might be right.
Isn't she S.S.H.?
I was on a show with her recently.
- She's too tall... - Yes.
to be S.S.H.
And she's also too mature to be her.
In other words, she's not S.S.H.
In my perspective, she's definitely a gugak musician.
- I'm 100 percent sure of it. - We all agree on...
- the gugak part. - Right.
- But she's not S.S.H. - Isn't she?
- She is! - No, she isn't.
The fact you are still holding on to...
the S.S.H. theory seems...
pathetic.
- S.S.H. - Who is S.S.H.?
- Is it Song Seung Heon? - Song Seung Heon?
- It's so funny. - Are you that desperate?
(He feels sorry for Seong Ju.)
Who else do you suggest?
I'd rather keep quiet...
than say such a ridiculous thing.
- He says it's ridiculous. - Gu Ra is cross.
- Then... - Just say the name.
Our audience is wondering...
who S.S.H. is.
- Everyone! - Don't you know?
Does it make sense to think she's Song So Hee?
- Oh, Song So Hee. - Right, Song So Hee.
They are saying that it makes sense.
Song So Hee.
(Song So Hee is a girl with a small physique.)
(She is also known as gugak girl.)
- Song So Hee. - Right, Song So Hee.
Don't you all think she could be S.Y.H.?
- S.Y.H. - Who is S.Y.H.?
(Who on earth is S.Y.H.?)
- Who's S.Y.H.? - It's Shin Young Hee.
(Shin Young Hee)
(She's a master of pansori,)
(who challenged the couple in "Vicious Woman".)
- Shin Young Hee. - What are you talking about?
(Shin Young Hee?)
You mean the gugak musician, Shin Young Hee?
- From "Vicious Woman". - She's 70 years old!
- She's a human cultural asset. - She's a gugak musician, too.
- But she's a gugak musician, too. - Seong Ju.
I guess that one of these two...
might take Music Commander's mask off.
- That's how I see it. - Any of these two might.
The one thing I'm sure about...
- is that she's not S.S.H. - I see.
She can make it to the next round,
- but she can't be S.S.H. - I understand.
I'll announce the result...
of Final Round.
Between the two masked singers,
who'll be the singer...
that will move to the 26th Final Match?
(She added Korean soul to her powerful voice.)
(It was a whole new crossover.)
(She sang wild and powerful soul funk.)
(There was a groove in her song.)
The final singer to compete with the King of Mask Singer.
The winner of this match is...
The winner is...
The winner is!
(Anticipating)
(Everyone's eagerly anticipating.)
The singer who will move on to the Final Match...
is...
Number Seven has won.
Yes.
(The moment when some people cheer,)
(and others cry.)
Number Seven has won.
Yes.
Good.
(There are also those who sigh in relief.)
Space Agent Number Seven beats You Know How to Dance...
with a score of 59 to 40...
and moves on to the Final Match.
Congratulations.
Please move to the backstage and get ready for the next match.
Please give her a round of applause.
Number Seven is voted as a candidate of the next King of Mask Singer.
(She climbs down the stage quietly.)
(Laughing)
(Screaming)
(I'm going to the Final Match.)
Let's now find out who You Know to Dance is,
who couldn't go to the Final Match by a small difference in vote.
We will now reveal who she is.
(Walking across)
Gu Ra, where are you going?
Hey.
He needs a minute.
A lot of people guessed that she is...
S.S.H. A lot of people.
Gu Ra kept saying she isn't.
He told off Sandeul...
and told him to stop with the nonsense.
Let's see if Sandeul is right...
or Gu Ra is right.
You Know How to Dance,
please move to the back of the stage...
and show us who you are.
How to Dance, please remove your mask...
and show us who you are.
There's a genre called crossover.
She has a Korean sensibility.
I'm guessing she is a gugak musician
There are some idol singers who studied gugak. It's Stellar.
Stellar?
- S. - S.
- S.S.?
- And H. - How can she be Song So Hee?
Song So Hee.
(Is she Song So Hee or not? That is the question.)
She is...
(Screaming)
(Everyone is nervous.)
She is...
(Who is she?)
Why? What is going on?
She is...
What is going on?
She is...
Gugak Girl, Song So Hee.
- I was right. - She is Song So Hee.
I was right.
(Everyone is happy.)
(Oh my gosh.)
Song So Hee.
I was right.
(Whilst everyone is happy, Gu Ra is alone and sad.)
(One is happy and the other is gloomy.)
She is indeed S.S.H.
It was Song So Hee.
Please introduce yourself to the audience.
I am the Gugak Girl Song So Hee. I just became a college freshman.
Hello.
(As a gugak prodigy, she received countless awards since age of five.)
(After 15 years of hard practice,)
(Song So Hee, the 20-year-old Korean traditional musician,)
(became one of Korea's best gugak singers.)
So Hee.
You weren't this tall last year...
when we were on "Three Wheels" together.
I was wearing a hanbok at that time, so I probably looked shorter.
How tall are you, So Hee?
I am 164cm.
- You wore high heels. - Yes, I did.
The 12-year-old girl who participated...
in Countrywide Singing Contest...
is now 20 years old.
So Hee is now a college freshman.
She is now all grown up...
to be called a "girl".
How did you feel, singing behind a mask?
Normally, it is difficult to touch people's hearts...
when you sing pop songs with a gugak voice. So I felt...
thankful that everyone was curious to find out who I was.
I will continue to try my best as a singer.
Alright.
(We have your back.)
We've only seen So Hee in a hanbok so far.
I heard you said that...
singing here at King of Mask Singer in a dress...
is like a gift for you personally.
I hardly ever have the chance to sing on such stage,
wearing a dress and a mask.
- So I decided to come out here... - Yes?
- to have a good time to myself. - Okay.
Was that gift satisfactory?
- Yes, thank you. - Alright.
- Seong Ju. - Yes?
- I learned a life lesson today. - What is it?
I learned that being assertive without knowledge...
- is the quickest road to doom. - Okay.
- I learned that today. - Okay.
Sandeul guessed correctly.
It must have been hard for So Hee to sing outside of the gugak style...
since she began gugak when she was very young.
I heard you practised hard...
to be able to sing on this show.
I thought 90 percent of the audience would recognise my voice,
so my original plan was to trick...
- the remaining 10 percent. - Right.
But I feel like I was only able to trick one percent,
- so I'm a little sad. - That one percent is right here.
You only tricked one person,
but the person you tricked was pretty assertive.
- That was... - I feel so satisfied right now.
- Look what happened to you. - Right.
(Gu Ra is embarrassed.)
Before you took off your mask,
Kim Hyun Chul gave you very high compliments.
I think she has the one and only voice in Korea.
I know for a fact that a lot of people will...
take interest in gugak, thanks to you.
- I see. - Right.
So Hee, what are your plans for the future?
Although I am a gugak singer,
I do want to study music in general.
So I wish you would see me as a musician.
Okay.
So Hee strayed from gugak and her usual hanbok today...
and showed us a new side of her.
Please give her another round of applause.
- Thank you. - Good job.
(We look forward to listening to your music.)
I feel...
weirdly satisfied.
A great satisfaction.
At first, I didn't think about hiding my voice.
I was going to sing in my actual voice thinking,
"Everyone will know anyway."
But as time passed, I kept dreaming about surprising people.
Seeing the audience surprised and happy...
at the moment I took off my mask,
I knew coming out on King of Mask Singer was a great choice.
I think I will be a lot less scared...
of trying new things after this experience.
I think I will be braver in taking risks,
and I think my self-esteem has gone up, too.
King of Mask Singer, you are the best
Thank you.
After Round Three,
Space Agent Number Seven beats Song So Hee...
and moves on to the Final Match.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
We have left the King Music Commander's performance.
What performance did he prepare for today?
Let's now see the performance of the King of Mask Singer...
in the 26th Final Match.
(The Final Match will start now!)
The 26th Final Match.
The King of voice range,
he who is headed for his fifth victory.
Music Commander In My Town.
(Music Commander In My Town)
(He is coming.)
(We were waiting for you.)
This is my first time seeing him in person.
His mask is cute, but his songs aren't cute.
His songs are scary.
His voice is out of this world.
(A performance that makes the panellists nervous)
I chose a song that matches the season.
Are you going to sing Busker Busker's song?
You shouldn't sing that one.
(His song choice was incredible every time.)
(What will Music Commander sing?)
("Spring Rain" by Park In Soo)
("Spring Rain"is a song released by Shin Jung Hwun's band in 1970.)
(It's a song that shows a good mix of psychedelic and Korean sounds.)
(His humming sounds like the ajaeng.)
(Oh, "Spring Rain".)
(A lonely and sensitive voice that greets a sad spring)
(The spring rain that feels like tears)
(Spring rain is drizzling down in my heart.)
(It feels lonely and plaintive.)
(His voice sounds sorrowful and dreamlike.)
(Desperate and intense sorrows of life)
(He is so good.)
(Music Commander's "Spring Rain" sprinkles the audience's heart.)
(He sang Shin Jung Hwun's hit song in his own way.)
(The panellists give him a standing ovation...)
(without a word.)
- He's so good. - It's over.
What did spring rain do to him?
- He is unbelievable. - Spring rain is drizzling.
- He is amazing. - I blame the spring rain.
Sandeul, I know you are a good singer, but he's amazing.
I was absorbed in the song.
I'm soaked in the song.
Gosh. It feels like I'm drunk.
Now the Final Match is over.
It is time to make a choice.
Which voice is to be the 26th King of Mask Singer?
Which voice do you want to hear again?
Please press your button for the masked singer you prefer.
Most of the panellists have voted but...
Hyun Chul!
Hyun Chul hasn't voted yet.
- Do you need more time? - I pressed it.
Did you press it? All votes are in.
So Hyun, you were fascinated...
by the Final Match.
How did you feel watching it?
I've been a DJ for more than 10 years.
I've listened to the songs of a lot of singers...
who are popular in Korea for a long time.
But I was very surprised when I heard...
Music Commander's song.
(His performance made...)
(even a famous DJ his fan.)
The energy is too extreme to be transmitted through TV...
when I watched him on TV.
Now that I'm here, I could feel everything about his performance.
- I was shocked. - I see.
Hyun Chul, you were the last person to press the button.
Music commander was...
once again a commander of this programme.
When Shin Jung Hwun wrote this song,
it was around 1960s to 1970s.
The most popular music of the time was...
soul and psychedelic.
Music Commander defined the two genre very well.
The song "Spring Rain"...
is about the time you wait for spring to come.
It's when winter hasn't to come to an end,
yet the spring is about to come. His song expressed that feeling.
I enjoyed it so much.
Music Commander, thank you so much for your performance.
Okay.
- He gave high compliments. - Seong Ju.
- Yes. - I was a bit embarrassed...
(Embarrassed)
And I was lonely.
I felt that way for a while earlier.
But the music healed me.
(Music Commander's performance healed Gu Ra's pain.)
My heart was aching.
It was painful as if my heart was salted.
But he washed it with the spring rain.
In fact, there is...
something I want to tell you today.
If you liked the song that Music Commander sang,
I want you to listen to the original song...
of Park In Soo.
- Do you recommend it? - Yes.
If you listen to the original song,
you will see how good Music Commander was today,
and how great Park In Soo was at that time.
And as he mentioned earlier,
you will see what a great composer Shin Jung Hwun was...
if you listen to the song.
So I want to recommend the viewers...
to listen to the original song of Park In Soo.
- It would be great for sure. - He was a great musician.
Jang Hyuk, what do you think?
It was peculiar.
He didn't seem to care about winning today.
He chose this song to show all his ability as a singer.
I know that he's got a good vocal cords...
and lung capacity.
So I guess he can sing any song he wants.
And Number Seven...
made all the men's hearts flutter...
with her soulful and powerful voice.
I enjoyed it a lot today.
Thank you very much.
Sandeul joined us today as a panellist in a long time.
Is this your first time to see Music Commander on the stage?
I'm not sure if I can tell you this,
but I was...
a bit worried about spring rain. What could it have done?
I was thinking there is going to be a riot when spring rain comes.
What did the spring rain do wrong for him to...
(Continuous return of...)
(spring rain!)
(You will recall it...)
(whenever spring rain falls.)
(Music Commander kept shouting out spring rain the whole time.)
That's what I felt listening to his music.
In fact,
I think you'd feel the same way.
Sometimes...
you want to stand in the spring rain.
But it's not raining these days.
So I will go home and take a shower in my clothes...
singing the spring rain.
- Okay. - You should try that.
- I recommend it. - It is a good idea.
(It is Heo Kyung Hwan's house.)
(He's taking a shower in the spring rain.)
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
It is time to announce...
the 26th King of Mask Singer.
You will be shocked to see...
the result of today's match.
Which masked singer did you like better?
I will introduce the 26th King of Mask Singer...
to you now.
(It is about to be revealed.)
(She sang "All For You" in Round One which sounded refreshing.)
(And she showed off her powerful voice in Round Two.)
(The song "In Dream" made people's hearts flutter.)
(Her sexy performance made the audience dance.)
(She looked totally different singing "Don't Live Like That".)
(He reinterpreted Shin Jung Hwun's "Spring Rain" in his own way.)
(It was plaintive...)
(and powerful!)
(Music Commander showed a different side of him as a musician.)
The 26th King of Mask Singer...
of your choice is...
(The 26th King of Mask Singer)
King of Mask Singer is...
(King of Mask Singer)
I'm nervous.
I have no idea. I usually do. But I really don't know this time.
I like this moment so much.
Will Music Commander win again? Or will...
a new female King of Mask Singer be elected?
(Will Music Commander get his fifth consecutive win?)
(Or will a new female King will be elected?)
King of Mask Singer is...
(What's the result?)
(Screaming)
Will Music Commander get his fifth consecutive win?
Or will a new female King of Mask Singer be elected?
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
Will Music Commander achieve his fifth consecutive win?
Or will a new female King of Mask Singer be elected?
The winner is...
(The 26th King of Mask Singer)
The winner is...
(The King of Mask Singer)
(Music Commander wins.)
Music Commander. This is his fifth consecutive win.
(Music Commander's fifth win)
(This ties with Catgirl's record.)
(The greatest record for a male King of Mask Singer)
- His performance was too strong. - What is it?
Music Commander wins for the fifth consecutive time.
Music Commander is now surpassing the records of...
Cleopatra and Cosmos.
The score was 24 to 75.
A score of 24 to 75.
Music Commander breaks...
the records of Cleopatra and Cosmos.
Now he ties with Catgirl.
We'll give the golden mask and gown...
back to him again. Congratulations.
Thank you. Thank you everybody.
All right. Let's hear how he feels now.
I'll show you...
a better performance next time.
- I sincerely thank you. - All right.
(We'll look forward to your next performance.)
Music Commander has become...
the 26th King of Mask Singer.
He has surpassed the record of Cleopatra...
and made the best record for a male King of Mask Singer.
Congratulations, Music Commander.
This is amazing.
(Music Commander goes backstage.)
Thank you.
(Let me tell you that I won...)
(Nobody is in here.)
(Did everyone leave for snacks?)
Now, we're going to...
find out...
who Number Seven is. Please move to the back of the stage.
(She has a powerful voice and deep emotional expressions.)
Space Agent Number Seven.
Please remove your mask and show us who you are.
She is a pretty expert singer.
She's a veteran singer. She can't be in her 20s.
I don't think she's an idol singer.
She seems like Park Hwayobi.
(What? Is this possible?)
(I can't believe this.)
(What's going on?)
Why? Why? Why?
- Why? - What's going on?
This is...
(Who is she?)
She is Kim Bo Hyung of SPICA.
(Is she really an idol singer?)
(Unbelievable)
(Everybody freezes.)
Oh my.
(She breaks the stereotypes against idol singers.)
- Hello. - She is unbelievable.
(SPICA is known as Lee Hyori's girl group.)
(Kim Bo Hyung is the main vocal.)
(SPICA participated in making famous OST albums.)
(Its two members advanced to Final Round in King of Mask Singer.)
(SPICA is a competitive girl group.)
I think you showed how great singer you are...
to the viewers today. What do you feel?
I'm still nervous though.
I feel really relieved now.
It was a really pleasurable and special experience...
- on stage. - All right.
Park So Hyun has a mania for idol singers.
We have Kim Bo Hyung of SPICA here.
Actually, when we considered...
Soyou a while ago,
I knew her singing style was...
that of SPICA.
But it was not the voice of Kim Boa.
She was so much powerful...
and her breathing was great.
So I thought she was a more experienced singer...
than Kim Bo Hyung, because she was so great.
I didn't imagine she could be an idol singer.
The other day,
Miljenko appeared on our show, and we were so excited.
But her performance is no less than any famous global stars.
I think she has...
the singing skills, voice tone and power of Whitney Houston.
She also has the high techniques of Mariah Carey. I think so.
She was born in Korea...
and is doing this. But think about it.
She deserves to get as much as attention...
that Miljenko got here.
While I listened to her song today,
my heart pounded fast.
- He's been praising her. - That's right.
I've become her fan today.
And I could see...
how hard she must've been training.
She must have listened to countless songs...
and practised hard to become a singer.
I imagined how hard she worked...
and hoped she could have...
- much more stages to sing. - Thank you.
All right.
To Kim Bo Hyung who was nervous but did her best...
and to SPICA that is preparing for their comeback,
please give a big hand.
Thank you.
(Please sing us many nice songs.)
(Her face is so bright.)
I feel so relieved.
I didn't know I'd feel this good afterwards.
(She has no regrets.)
From today's experience, I want to learn to...
communicate with the audience and understand them better.
Someone looks very serious.
Someone is listening to my song with a broad smile on his face.
The facial expression and gestures of the audience vary so much.
I want to prove that I have a potential...
to be a great singer.
When I sing a ballad, I'll show you how fragile I can be.
When I sing an exciting song,
I want to make people really excited.
I want to show the both sides of me...
to the audience.
We'll come back with a good album.
Please cheer for us.
(Shy)
