Last week.
The current King of Mask Singer is challenging the throne again.
Music Commander In My Town, the 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th...
and 26th King, continues to compete after beating Catgirl's record.
According to the online mobile survey,
netizens' expectation for the 27th King of Mask Singer is...
Music Commander In My Town in the first place...
with his fantastic and unmatched vocals.
Please Vote on 13th April is expected...
to be the runner-up.
I didn't know such a singer existed.
He's a monster.
But the singers are slowly showing their true colours.
Shocking performances.
I just got goosebumps.
Touching performances.
Will Music Commander's sixth consecutive victories be broken?
Or will he become a new legend?
Who will be the King of Mask Singer to commemorate the show's birthday?
The special match begins now.
(The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer)
The first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
He beat the actor Choi Phil Lip with a Don Quixote-like voice.
Passionate Sancho Man Carbonara.
(Passionate Sancho Man Carbonara)
(Hello ladies.)
(Welcome, Sancho Man.)
I think he's around our age.
(I agree.)
He looks like he is the serious type of person.
I'm excited for his performance.
(Sancho Man's voice is refreshing and powerful,)
(and his high notes are incredible.)
He's definitely a singer,
and a famous one whom everyone will recognise.
My guess is that he's an idol singer.
No, I think he's pretty old.
Do you think he's in his mid-40s?
- He's in his 50s. - He's nearing his 50s.
(However,)
(the panellists have become confused,)
(since seeing him dance.)
(The panellists seem confused.)
(Will they get a hint from this performance?)
("Kiss Me" by Park Jin Young)
(With a soft but thick voice,)
(he sings powerfully, showing off his charms.)
(Exciting rhythm)
(Groovy moves)
(He knows how to play with the rhythm.)
(Pointing)
(Screaming)
(At Sancho Man's gestures,)
(all the women give their hearts to him.)
(She dances along.)
(Who is he?)
(They're in a trance.)
(Excited)
(The audience heats up.)
(His voice is sexy.)
(We love you, Sancho Man.)
(The King of Mask Singer is also enjoying the performance.)
(Even while dancing, his breath is stable.)
(Dancing)
(Groovy dance moves)
(A perfect performance of "Kiss Me"...)
(where both his song and dance moves were seamless)
(Bravo.)
His performance was incredible.
That was awesome!
Darling.
He really knows how to enjoy himself on stage.
Who is it? I have no clue.
- He's an idol singer. - I don't think so.
Who is he?
(Where did this gem come from?)
- His dance moves were amazing. - I think I know who he is.
Going against him,
is the singer who beat HEYNE.
He would like to be judged solely on his voice.
Please Vote on 13th April.
(Please Vote on 13th April)
(The 20th legislative elections will be held on April 13th.)
(Don't forget to vote.)
(We will be sure to vote.)
His body looks like that of Shin Yong Jae.
His voice is different from Shin Yong Jae's.
He has a beautiful voice.
I am excited for his performance.
(He conveys his deep emotions.)
(He has a sentimental and soulful voice.)
He has perfected his voice.
There is a stability in his performance.
I think he is a musical actor.
However, I don't think he is a very famous one.
(He surprised everyone.)
(Panellists were shocked...)
(by Please Vote, a singer with a sentimental voice.)
(He is a man of unexpected charms.)
(What performance has he prepared to awe the audience?)
(We are excited for Please Vote's performance.)
("Shout of Myself" by Maya)
(Wow)
(With his deep and powerful voice,)
(Please Vote captivated the audience in no time.)
(My heart is fluttering.)
(His husky voice is melodious.)
Who could he be?
(I can't quite figure him out.)
(Please Vote radiates inner strength.)
(His voice touches the depth of listeners' hearts.)
(They are getting goosebumps.)
(The audience is immersed in the performance.)
(I love it.)
(His roar and cry...)
(fill the listeners with reverence.)
(He is good.)
(Frozen)
This is insane. I am getting goosebumps.
(I am getting goose bumps.)
(He sings with all his might.)
(The audience erupts in applause before the performance is over.)
(His performance makes panellists stand up from their seats.)
(Delight, pleasure and moving emotions...)
(filled Please Vote's splendid performance.)
(Panellists give him a standing ovation.)
My goodness.
He was different from Round One.
- He sings very well. - Absolutely.
- My goodness. - That was amazing.
- Who is he? - My goodness.
- I have no idea. - Who could he be?
- He is so talented. - Ki Jun says...
Please Vote might be Tei.
His voice does sound similar.
Doesn't his voice sound like Tei's?
Tei has been on King of Mask Singer twice.
(Tei has been on King of Mask singer twice.)
(Jang Hyuk has been on the show thrice.)
The first match of Round Two came to an end.
It's time for the audience...
to pick a voice.
You must choose between Sancho Man's seduction...
and Please Vote's plea.
To whose voice...
will the audience cast a vote?
All votes are in.
- Young Seok. - Yes.
The masked singers are different from Round One, right?
It feels like...
the plot has thickened.
Please Vote is a monster.
- A monster? - Yes.
He sings with an amazing breath control.
While Sancho Man has great techniques,
Please Vote is like a diamond...
that blocks all techniques.
He overwhelms his opponent like a wall of rock.
(He is like an impregnable fortress.)
- I was shocked. - That's why you call him a monster.
Jang Hyuk, I saw you taking notes...
during the performances of these two masked singers.
It was amazing. Both performances were breathtaking.
Sancho Man completed the song...
without losing his breath.
I think he is a former idol singer...
who is very proud...
of his dance skills.
I enjoyed his performance.
I will now talk about Please Vote.
In my opinion,
he gave an amazing performance...
even though he didn't sing with his true voice.
You don't think he sang with his true voice.
I can't help but think he is changing his voice to sound deep.
He might be Park Wan Kyu with his hair cut short.
- I see. - That's plausible.
- Gianna Jun. - Yes?
What did you think of their singing techniques?
- You have nice hair. - He is like Gianna Jun.
He displays movements of a rocker.
He headbangs without knowing.
(He clenched his fist and banged his head.)
(Fierce and fiercer)
(His movements are sudden, too.)
(Turning)
(Wan Kyu, is that you?)
Did he squeeze his head into the ballot box?
(Did he squeeze his head into the ballot box?)
It would be a tight fit.
- It seems that way. - He squeezed his head into it.
"Like that" was a part of the lyrics.
Rockers have a peculiar way of vocalising "Like that".
They elongate the word like this.
Like that
Not all rockers have such vocalisation.
- You are mistaken. - Is that so? I see.
- He doesn't vocalise like a rocker. - He doesn't?
No. I think he might have studied vocal music...
or trained to sing in musicals.
He has a very powerful voice,
- but he didn't sound like a rocker. - I see. Here comes the surprise.
Please Vote's...
special talent is vocal music.
My goodness,
his astute observation surprised me.
Are you good at vocal music?
I wouldn't say I am good at it.
- I used to sing along. - I see.
- That's how I learned it. - Could you show us?
- I prepared a song. - You prepared a special talent.
- Yes, I did. - I see.
- You need to make yourself clear. - Can he sing like Pavarotti?
Which song will you sing?
I will sing the last part...
of "Nessun Dorma" that goes "vincero, vincero..."
- Lesson Dorma? - "Nessun Dorma".
So that's the artist's name. What is the song called again?
"Nessun Dorma" is the title of the song.
That's the title of the song!
Why would that be someone's name?
- For goodness' sake. - I am ignorant of vocal music.
Am I the only one who didn't know?
My goodness.
"Nessun Dorma" is also known as "None Shall Sleep".
(Nessun dorma)
(The song "Nessun Dorma" has become more popular with Pavarotti.)
(The ending part of the song is awesome.)
(Vincero)
(His voice resonates through the panellists' hearts.)
(It sounds like Pavarotti is singing for them.)
(His powerful voice impresses everyone.)
- I knew it. His navel is deep. - Okay.
- He has a deep navel. - His voice is resonant.
- He has a deep navel. - His voice resonates from inside.
He is amazing. Now, Sancho Man has something to show you.
He says he is good at beatboxing.
And he can do something else while beatboxing.
I can imitate someone's voice while beatboxing.
- At the same time? - I see.
(How'd it sound?)
(Beatboxing)
(Kim Jang Hoon)
- That's Kim Jang Hoon. - You are such a bad man.
(He sounds the same.)
Hello. I'm Seo Tai Ji.
I've seen the end of my life
It suffocates me
That's it. Nice.
Good job!
What he did was very old-fashioned.
Old-fashioned?
I know who Sancho Man is.
- Do you know Sancho Man? - Yes.
- Do you know who he is? - Yes.
When Hani was here last time,
she sang Park Jin Young's song.
And Hani used to be a trainee of Park Jin Young.
And he just sang "Kiss Me"...
which is Park Jin Young's song.
So I think he is a member of god.
He might be Son Ho Young.
(The popular idol group which Park Jin Young made, god)
(Did Sancho Man sing the song because of their relationship?)
(Booing)
- What are you talking about? - Is he Son Ho Young?
- You can laugh at him now. - Isn't he Son Ho Young?
I don't think he is Son Ho Young.
- No? - No one seems to agree with you.
Jang Hyuk kept saying...
that he knew whom Sancho Man is.
He used to be a member of an idol group.
- He was very popular. - I see.
The old idol group.
SHINHWA.
- You know who he is. - She's right.
- Yes, it's SHINHWA. - Yes.
- He's M. - M?
M?
(One of the oldest idol groups in the country, SHINHWA)
(He is the dancer of the group, Lee Min Woo.)
(Is Sancho Man Lee Min Woo?)
- M? - He's not him.
M is shorter than him.
Watch him carefully. He's wearing a hat.
The hat makes him look taller.
Listen to me.
Look at the location of his eyes. He is as tall as Seong Ju.
- Who? Me? - Hey, Sancho Man.
- I don't think so. - Why?
- Hey, Sancho Man. - Shin Bo Ra.
(What? What did she say?)
- Shin Bo Ra. - Sancho Man.
- Did you call him?
It seems you practised singing a lot.
- Do you know him? - You are wearing those shoes.
- I... - What shoes? You know these shoes?
He and I are in the same company.
Are you in the same company?
- I've never seen her before. - He is really...
Why are you saying that?
- You even sang with me. - I don't know her.
I know him. He is SHORRY.
- I see. - SHORRY?
Yes, those are SHORRY's shoes.
(SHORRY is a cute member of Mighty Mouth.)
(Their figures look similar and their shoes look the same.)
- Those are SHORRY's shoes. - Maybe he's wearing insoles.
The reason he chose the name Sancho Man...
is because he likes Latin America.
Senorita! He likes to say it in his songs.
(Hola! Amigo!)
(Senorita!)
He likes the words like Sancho or Carbonara.
- Oh, those kind of words. - Yes.
We need two of SHORRY to fit that size.
- Really? - Yes.
He is much smaller than Sancho Man.
Sancho Man is too tall to be SHORRY.
I still think he's SHORRY.
(Is Sancho Man SHORRY?)
As Jin Young said, Sancho Man is...
a member of SHINHWA.
- I know. - I guess he is one of them.
Isn't he a singer of JYP run by Park Jin Young?
He doesn't look like a singer of JYP.
I know for sure that he is not Son Ho Young.
Why are you doing this to me?
- How can you say that to me? - He is a good dancer.
I envy him very much.
I'm sure he has a lot of experience in dancing and singing.
I know god had concerts like a hundred times.
I said he's not Son Ho Young.
- It's not him! - You are wrong.
I starred in the musical, "All Shook Up" with him before.
And I'm sure he's not Son Ho Young.
She's firm.
They are pushing Gu Ra into a corner.
Okay. The first match of Round One.
I will announce the result of the match.
Between these two masked singers,
who will win the match and move on to Round Three?
I will announce the winner right now.
(He's got a sexy voice and dance grooves.)
(Sancho Man captivated the audience with his performance.)
(With his sweet husky voice,)
(Please Vote impressed the audience.)
Who is the winner of the first match of Round Two?
- Who is that? - Who won?
Who is the winner?
(Their hearts are pounding.)
(Who is the winner?)
(The winner is...)
Who will win this match?
We have two masked singers with different charms.
The winner is...
Please Vote.
(Please Vote)
- Please Vote! - Wow!
(There are mixed feelings amongst the panellists.)
(Amazing)
(They can't keep their mouth shut.)
Please Vote on 13th April wins the match.
He defeated Sancho Man with a score of 67 to 32.
His votes are more than double that of his opponent.
Please Vote on 13th April must be excited.
Congratulations.
(He is cute.)
- I'm happy. - You'll come back in Round Three.
Please go back to the waiting room.
Please give him a big hand.
(Sancho Man will reveal his identity soon.)
It seems Please Vote didn't know he would win.
(Excited)
(Please Vote feels proud.)
Who is Sancho Man then?
There were a lot of speculations about Sancho Man.
Now Passionate Sancho Man Carbonara will take off...
his mask and show his face.
He is so good at dancing.
I think he used to be an idol singer.
I think he is Son Ho Young.
He is M of SHINHWA.
- M? - M?
He is SHORRY.
SHORRY?
Is any of your predictions right?
(They are excited to see him.)
He is...
Who is he?
- Who is that? - He must be SHORRY.
Is any of your predictions right?
He is...
(He is...)
Lee Min Woo of SHINHWA, the oldest idol group in Korea.
(Was he Lee Min Woo?)
Oh my goodness!
Min Woo!
(It's so nice to see you.)
He is M!
He is Lee Min Woo of SHINHWA.
He's M!
Hello, everyone.
I'm a singer with 19 years of experience.
I'm Lee Min Woo of SHINHWA. Nice to meet you.
(He is the member of SHINHWA, the oldest idol group in Korea.)
(He is a man of powerful charisma.)
(He is a great dancer...)
(and even good at singing.)
(His nickname as a soloist is M.)
Lee Min Woo is a dancer in his team, SHINHWA.
Many people think only Shin Hye Sung or Kim Dong Wan is good at singing.
People didn't know you could sing well.
Everyone knows that the main vocalist of our group is Hye Sung.
Dong Wan and I are second vocalists of the group.
But Hye Sung stands out because of me and Dong Wan.
(Hye Sung stands out because of us.)
- Is that true? - Yes.
In fact, I've been the main dancer of the group.
Many people think I'm a good dancer.
So I wanted to show them that I'm good at singing, too.
I see. I'm sorry we didn't know you were good at it.
I knew that Lee Min Woo...
was the only one who is capable of dancing like that.
But I thought he was too good at singing to be Lee Min Woo.
So I was very confused.
Then I realised that there was no one...
who could dance as good as Lee Min Woo.
- So I was sure he was Min Woo. - I see.
And it turns out I was right.
The song "Kiss Me" is...
16-beat song which is not fast.
It is hard to sing to that rhythm.
It would sound weird if you don't have a good sense of rhythm.
But his singing was detailed, witty...
and even skilled.
I was glad...
- to see his true talent. - Thank you.
I had a prejudice against him.
- What was that? - That he is short.
- I see. - But he's not short.
He's not that short. He is as tall as Seong Ju.
- I see. - No, I'm not.
He is as tall as Kim Dong Wan.
- That's true. - I know.
Why does Dong Wan pretend to be taller than you?
We didn't know he's such a good singer.
When you think of him, the first images that come to your mind are...
that he is cold, he is charismatic...
and that he doesn't smile a lot.
- But today, you were quite funny... - Yes.
while wearing the mask.
Actually, SHINHWA is known as a group of...
eccentric members.
All our members are not that ordinary.
When it was not long after we made a debut in 1998,
Lee Soo Man told me...
that I'd better not smile too much.
I asked him why he wanted me not to smile.
He said there must be a quiet member like Jang Woo Hyuk of H.O.T.
He wanted me to be quiet like him.
But I couldn't stand it after two months.
(He gave up being quite in two months.)
SHINHWA is a 19-year-old group.
Are all the members still single?
- Yes. - Who will be the first?
- The first one to get married? - Yes.
I think we should get married all at the same time.
(We should get married all at the same time.)
- Being the first will be betrayal. - I see.
(Could they'll have a joint wedding?)
I'll ask you one last question.
You are the second member here following Kim Dong Wan.
Who do you recommend for our show...
amongst other members?
If he comes on this show, people will be really surprised.
- Who is the member? - It's Eric.
- Eric! - Yes.
Eric is good...
at not only rapping but also singing.
- People won't recognise him. - I see.
Today, we had a good chance to hear Lee Min Woo's voice...
that had been overshadowed by his great dance skills.
It was a precious time.
Please give another big hand to Lee Min Woo.
Thank you.
(We'll look forward to his advancement.)
You were great.
- Go, Lee Min Woo! - Way to go!
- Thank you. - Okay.
I felt like I was spinning...
over and over on a roller coaster.
Now I've gotten off the roller coaster.
King of Mask Singer is really the best.
(King of Mask Singer is really the best.)
I felt as if I went back in time to when we had a guerrilla concert.
(I felt as if I went back in time...)
I felt that all over again.
I was really thrilled. As I took off my mask,
it reminded me of the guerrilla concert we had before.
I faced the audience without the mask, and they recognised me.
At the time, I felt so grateful...
that I kept bowing. I felt so fulfilled, too.
I even got goosebumps.
I was happy that I came on this show.
(I was happy that I came on this show.)
In Round Two, Please Vote on 13th April...
defeated Lee Min Woo and moved on to Round Three.
We'll go on with Round Two, semi-finals.
The second match is about to begin.
(The second match of Round Two)
The second match of Round Two.
He defeated Chef Choi Hyun Seok...
and he's not afraid of any opponent.
You Are a Champion.
(You Are a Champion)
(He walks with confidence.)
(I will win!)
(Way to go!)
Didn't he hide his true colours in Round One?
- I think so. - He used a mixed tone.
There hasn't been an idol singer yet. He must be one.
- No idol singer came out yet? - No.
(He used both chest voice and falsetto in Round One.)
If he sings any ballad song,
women who hear it will definitely fall for him.
- You think your voice is feminine? - What are you saying?
There is a guy who is avid to hang around...
- with other musicians. - Go on.
His name is Eddy. Eddy Kim.
- Eddy Kim? - Eddy Kim.
(He showed us some club dance moves.)
(Who are you?)
(He was cheerful and bright in Round One.)
(What performance will he put on in Round Two?)
("Lie Lie Lie" by Lee Juck)
(Wow!)
(He seems like a different singer from the previous round.)
(He opens this sad ballad with deep low notes.)
(Touched)
(Champion sincerely conveys the feelings of a broken heart.)
(The sadness he expresses touches people's hearts.)
(He's amazing.)
Isn't he a musical actor?
I have no idea.
He is an excellent singer.
(Mesmerised)
(He can't help but applaud.)
(He expresses the sorrow and hopelessness of parting.)
(He sings calmly and sincerely.)
(He is so good.)
(Champion exudes his deep sensibility.)
(Their hearts ache, too.)
(Champion's song was deeply emotional like a sad movie.)
(The feelings linger.)
- Hyun Chul, is he in musical scene? - No.
- He is a singer. - He is definitely a singer.
He is a singer.
He is unbelievable.
Champion's opponent has...
defeated the actress Yoon Yoo Sun.
She is free and artistic.
Bohemian Rhapsody.
(Bohemian Rhapsody)
(She looks enchanting.)
- She has an aura. - Right.
(She doesn't look ordinary.)
She may be a rock or blues singer.
Her voice is not that of a rocker.
- Then, jazz or blues? - No rocker has come today.
Really? Maybe she's a jazz or blues singer.
(With her deep and attractive tone,)
(she showed her mature sound in Round One.)
I got an impression that she's hiding something,
and she's not fully showed herself to us.
I'm guessing she's Jung Kyoung Hwa who sang "Invitation to Myself."
- Jung Kyoung Hwa? - Yes.
I thought of the jazz singer Woong San.
I see. A jazz singer Woong San.
(She showed sexy Latin dance moves.)
(Did she conceal her true colours in Round One?)
(Everybody holds their breath.)
(What will Rhapsody show us in Round Two?)
("Crooked" by Kang San Eh)
(The song is exciting from the prelude.)
(She chose a powerful rock song that nobody expected.)
(Everyone is excited.)
(Rhapsody successfully reinterprets the song.)
(Her attractive and husky voice fills the air.)
(Her delivery of the lyrics is impressive and strong...)
(with her distinctive breathing technique.)
(Bouncing)
(Unique ad-lib makes people want to dance.)
(Commander dances to her song.)
(The studio is already absorbed in Rhapsody's music.)
(Her rock spirit explodes.)
(She's the best.)
(Bouncing)
(She plays with the tune freely at her will.)
(Wow!)
(She's the best.)
(Who is she?)
(Her enchanting voice makes people want to follow her.)
(Wow, her song is powerful.)
(She shows powerful rock spirit in this mind blowing stage.)
(Rock and roll, Rhapsody!)
- Wow. - That was good.
(The panellists admire her.)
- I couldn't stop bouncing. - Yes, really.
- Who is she? I don't have a clue. - I also don't know who she is.
The second match of Round Two has just finished.
The match was emotions versus individuality.
It was a crash between sorrow and charisma.
Make up your minds.
Vote for the masked singer...
who made bigger impression on your mind.
Vote now.
- It's so hard. - You have to decide now.
Hurry with your voting before the prejudice creeps in.
All votes are in.
Young Seok, you kept on admiring their stage.
I think Bohemian Rhapsody...
finally showed her true colours.
She sang this simple song with such a sophisticated vocal.
- Right, right. - Yes.
- It was such a plain song, - Yes.
- but she added splendour to it. - That's right.
As for Champion,
I liked his performance so much.
He made me want to listen to "Lie Lie Lie" by Lee Juck again...
when I go back home.
Oh, right.
You sang the song with subtle sensitivity.
Jang Hyuk, do you sense any change in the breathing technique...
of these two singers in Round Two?
I was utterly deceived in Round One.
I said in Round One...
that Rhapsody might be hiding her soulful voice.
Now she is belching out so much soul.
Her technique of getting rid of redundant breath is unique.
She sings the line "crooked" like "crook-ed".
The technique of spitting out redundant breath is hard.
It's harder if you are...
- not a trained vocalist. - I see.
- She's not an idol singer. - Right.
She's dancing. She's sexy.
And...
Champion tightly holds onto his breath.
He held the breath tightly,
but sang in a low voice as if he's whispering.
It made the song even more touching.
- He proved us that. - Right.
Hyun Chul, did your opinion change from Round One?
It changed completely.
Champion couldn't stop moving...
in Round One. He danced continuously.
And he kept on making moves while standing on the stage.
He couldn't stand still.
I never thought he could sing this kind of song so well.
I never imagined that this would be possible.
But Rhapsody cheated me as well.
She was so good at controlling rhythms.
- Her rhythms were immaculate. - I see.
I think she is an unknown master of singing.
- Seong Ju. - Yes.
As for Rhapsody,
her gentle swaying reminded me...
of something from my childhood.
I liked an actress called Song Ok Sook when I was young.
She starred in the episode "Long-legged Octopus Lady"...
from "Bestseller Theatre".
(Long-legged Octopus Lady)
Long-legged Octopus Lady?
- Hyun Chul, do you remember? - That's right.
Long-legged Octopus Lady.
Hyun Chul and Young Seok seem to remember.
Every man in my age would know it.
I will wait for you forever.
("Long-legged Octopus Lady" made Song Ok Sook famous.)
Okay.
There was an episode with a title "Long-legged Octopus Lady".
- What kind of lady is that? - That kind of lady.
- This kind of lady? - Yes.
She is like a long-legged octopus in the mud,
but a deadly captivating one.
- She coils up around a person. - You are right.
Once she does it, it's hard to resist her.
- That's what I felt. - Okay.
- What about Champion? - He sings...
- in a soft and low voice. - I see.
It felt as if he was calling me.
- Oh, by singing "Lie Lie Lie". - Yes.
I was a bit drowsy before.
(Gu Ra, Gu Ra.)
(Surprised)
- He woke me up. - Okay.
- That's the impression I got. - Okay.
I think it's the voice that I missed for so long.
- Who is it? - Can you give the initials?
Since you are very confident, give us the initials.
His initial is a crucial hint.
(His initial is a crucial hint.)
- I think it starts with T. - T?
- I still don't have a clue. - I think so, too.
- T? - Ye Won, who is it?
- Who is it? - Why are you so positive?
I think he is Tim.
- Tim! - I'm positive about it.
(He debuted with a song "I Love You" in 2003.)
(He stole every girl's heart.)
(He was so dandy and gentle.)
(But will Champion be Tim?)
- What's the reason? - I heard his songs a lot.
- Okay. - His pronunciation...
and singing style tell me that he is definitely Tim.
- In my opinion, - Yes, Hyun Chul.
he is not Tim. If he were Tim I know,
he wouldn't have danced the way he did last week.
He can't dance like he did last week.
- He showed groovy dance moves. - Yes. Tim wouldn't dance like that.
- Okay. - And also, the wavelength of...
Tim's vibrato is a lot shorter and more delicate.
I worked with Tim once.
- Tim's voice is brighter than his. - Right.
The ways of delivering emotions differs from Champion's.
- He can't be Tim I know. - Look.
K. will and Ye Won claim him to be Tim.
But old people like them can only think of Tim from the past.
- So they're saying he can't be Tim. - You're saying he's not Tim?
- I don't think so. - I hope he is Tim.
- Why? - So that they will be humiliated.
- A singer's skill may enhance. - Of course.
How can they be so sure?
These experts' perspectives are stagnant.
They always remember what they have seen.
But they never think about how he might have changed.
Even your mole is bigger than it was 20 years ago.
Isn't it? Even you've changed.
- So Gu Ra thinks he is Tim. - I think he is Tim.
I will offer an opportunity where...
you can get closer to their identity.
We will hear their real voice.
Champion, you will go first.
Start your voice mimicry, please. Who can...
you impersonate?
He wants us to be quiet. He's going to do it.
Good.
Do you know
How much I love you?
(I did it!)
Is that it? That was short.
- It was very short. - But...
- That's it. - But now that...
I hear his voice like this,
- I think he really is Tim. - You can tell, right?
- Really? - He's trying not to sound like Tim.
- But that's Tim's voice. - It's Tim.
- He's trying to hide it. - I'll go with Tim.
- He is definitely Tim. - It's Tim.
He has another one.
Did he just do a vocal mimicry of himself?
No, it was of Jo Sung Mo.
Now, another person.
I Believe
He is definitely Tim. It's him.
- And his gestures... - That was Shin Seung Hun's voice.
His voice gives away that it's Tim,
but his gestures are a bit strange.
- He's doing that on purpose. - Is he doing it on purpose?
- People get braver... - You guys seem confused.
behind the masks.
Okay, now we will let you hear...
Bohemian Rhapsody's real voice.
She is going to do...
her very first vocal impersonation.
Taegeukgi
(Her voice really sounds like Hyun Sook's nasal voice.)
She's good.
- That was good. - You did good.
- Well done! - That was really similar.
That was your first time doing it?
- Wow. - She's good, though.
That was her very first vocal impersonation.
- Isn't that Solji? - Solji.
(Me?)
(Laughing)
Can you try that one?
The one where Hyun Sook says, "Did you send the money, Kim?"
- "Check if the money has arrived." - Yes, that one.
Can you try that one?
Can you do it for us?
Can you do it?
She says she doesn't know that one.
We can teach her how it's done.
I don't know how to do it, either.
You don't know how to do it?
You said you knew earlier.
"Kim, check if the money arrived."
Hula, hula, hula
- That's exactly right. - This is how you do it.
- You're good, Seong Ju. - He's good.
- Can you ask her to try it? - Okay.
"Kim, check if the money arrived."
And sing "Hula, hula". Go.
"Kim, check if the money arrived."
Hula, hula, hula
- Hula, hula, hula - Hula, hula, hula
She's good.
She could have done much better if she wasn't shy.
- She's still good. - Yes, she is.
We saw her mimic Hyun Sook,
but I don't think the panellists have a good guess yet.
We will now announce the result of the second match.
A gentle and sentimental vocalist,
You Are a Champion.
A unique and charismatic vocalist,
Bohemian Rhapsody.
I will now announce...
which one of these two will move on to Round Three.
(Is it You Are a Champion who surprised us with his low voice,)
(overflowing sentiments and touching performance?)
(Or is it Bohemian Rhapsody who surprised us with...)
(her rock spirit and charismatic vocals?)
The winner of this match...
who will move on to Round Three is...
The winner is...
- Who is it? - I'm so nervous.
I don't know who will win.
(The fight between sentiments and charisma)
(As difficult as the decision was for everyone...)
The difference in votes is very small.
- A very small difference. - Oh, no.
A very small difference.
The winner is...
Bohemian Rhapsody won.
(Bohemian Rhapsody won.)
I told you.
(Surprised)
(Supporters for Tim are disappointed.)
She is a bit similar to Cha Ji Yeon.
Their voices are a bit alike.
She wins by three votes' difference.
It was 51 versus 48.
(Wow!)
Having earned three more votes, Bohemian Rhapsody...
becomes the winner of this close match.
You have to prepare for Round Three.
Please move to the waiting room. Please give her a round of applause.
(In a moment, we will find out who You Are a Champion is.)
The female vocalist,
Bohemian Rhapsody moves on to the next round.
I really didn't think I'd make it to Round Three.
I spent little time practicing...
the song for Round Three,
so I'm not confident whether I can do it well.
I'm still happy.
(I'm still happy.)
That was a close match.
You Are a Champion couldn't go to Round Three because of three votes.
He caused a lot of controversy amongst the panellists today.
There's Team Tim and its opponent, Team Not-Tim.
Is it Tim,
or is it someone else?
He will now sing the song he prepared for Round Three.
(He will reveal himself while singing his Round Three song.)
While the bridge section is playing,
I will introduce him to you.
This is your last chance.
Sit according to your teams.
- We're all on Team Tim. - We're all on Team Tim.
- Team Tim. - Team Tim.
He's the only opponent.
Hyun Chul is alone.
Young Seok is with Hyun Chul.
We have two people on Team Not-Tim,
and everyone else is on Team Tim.
If you change your mind while listening to the song,
you can move seats accordingly.
We will now listen...
to You Are a Champion's song for Round Three...
and find out who he is.
Please welcome him with a round of applause.
(The last hint!)
- Eddy Kim. - Eddy Kim?
- Eddy Kim. - Oh, Eddy Kim.
There's a singer called Crush.
- Crush? - Crush.
- Tim. - Tim?
I am certain it's Tim.
- He's not Tim I know. - I know it's not Tim.
- I'll go with Tim. - He's definitely Tim.
It's Tim.
(Who is You Are a Champion?)
("Proposal" by Noel)
Maybe it's not Tim.
It's Tim.
(Team Not-Tim is concentrating hard.)
(Confused)
What?
- He might not be Tim. - Yes, it's him.
(Who is it?)
That can't be Tim's voice.
It's Tim.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
(His soft voice tickles our ears.)
- It's him. - He's Tim.
We were right.
(Sighing)
(Is he escaping the scene?)
(Is You Are a Champion really Tim?)
(Or is he someone entirely unexpected?)
(Did they sign out of Team Not-Tim?)
(His voice charms women...)
(like the spring breeze.)
(You Are a Champion, who are you?)
You Are a Champion, please take off your mask...
and show us who you are.
This is...
(What does the cheer mean?)
(Who is he?)
Please take off your mask and show us who you are.
This is...
(Who is You Are a Champion?)
Tim, the prince of ballad.
(Tim, a singer of 14 years' music career)
(Tim!)
(Wow!)
(The marriage proposal of a sweet guy)
(The women are captivated by him.)
(Screaming)
(The unchanging voice...)
(that everybody longed for)
(It was you.)
He is so cool.
(Wow!)
(Cute)
Thank you.
(Tim sang "Proposal" with his signature sweetness.)
Okay.
You Are a Champion was the prince of ballad,
Tim.
Hello, it has been a while.
- I am Tim. - All right.
(He debuted in 2003 with "I Love You".)
(His hit songs include "To Some Degree of Love"...)
(and "Unnecessary Words".)
(He has the face of a gentleman and a soft voice.)
(The prince of ballad, Tim)
You Are a Champion was Tim.
Hyun Chul is about to cry.
- Seriously. - He didn't know it was Tim.
- He is hopeless. - Hyun Chul had no idea.
- How did he not know? - Stop being so stubborn.
How did you not recognise Tim?
The behaviours he showed...
in Round One were different from those of Tim I know.
Tim, be honest.
Had you not displayed those behaviours,
- I would have recognised you. - You would have known.
- You are right. - You... Oh, gosh.
As everyone knows, the image I have...
is that of a gentle and polite man.
I do own such qualities,
- but I am also a prankster. - I see.
I wanted to show my manly side.
I have a question. Did you always like to groove?
Yes, I tend to enjoy it.
- I enjoy it. - Hyun Chul doesn't know Tim well.
- It seems that way. - He knows nothing about Tim.
Tim showed sides of him he has never revealed before.
- Hip hop runs in his veins. - Seriously.
During the years we haven't heard of him,
Tim established himself as the prince of Indonesia.
In Indonesia,
I starred in a 30-episode-long drama.
- You are an actor now. - Yes.
I will have my revenge.
(His acting ranges from a spiteful oath of revenge...)
(to a romantic moment.)
I won't let anything happen to you.
Visiting a Korean show after four years of break,
Tim let the audience hear his mature and deep voice...
through his performances.
To be honest, I looked forward to revealing myself...
more than singing on the stage.
In my life,
I often felt like I was wearing a mask...
because of people's expectations.
Taking the mask off...
on King of Mask Singer felt like a new beginning.
I wanted to courageously show everyone...
Tim without pretence.
I hope everyone will work hard to remain true. I love you.
- All right. - You are amazing.
- Tim is so cool. - Tim came back as mature as ever.
Please give him a round of applause.
- Thank you for your hard work. - Go, Tim!
(We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours.)
(Relieved)
There was only a difference of three votes.
Who are those three people?
- Hyun Chul. - My goodness.
How can you do this to me?
- I didn't know it was you. - I love your OST.
Gosh.
- I love you - I love you
You are amazing.
I love you
One day you will look back
- My goodness. - Turn around.
- I am looking back. - I love you
(Screaming)
This is exactly why you can't let go of your old image.
You are right. That's why I wore a mask.
(We hope you will take off the mask and begin anew with courage.)
Bohemian Rhapsody beat Tim...
and moved on to Round Three.
With Music Commander...
aiming to win six times in a row,
his rivals have been narrowed down to two.
Will the new king take the throne today?
Please welcome the two remaining masked singers...
with a round of applause.
(Two strong candidates remain.)
(They will have a match to challenge the king.)
We started off with eight masked singers.
Now, only these two remain.
(Both masked singers refuse to lose.)
One masked singer is a man while the other is a woman.
These two masked singers will face each other in Round Three.
It's amazing that I made it this far.
Even if I get eliminated today,
I will continue to sing good songs.
- Thank you. - All right.
(Please Vote sounds like a good man.)
Do you feel as though you might be eliminated?
I have felt that way since Round Two.
Is that so?
Don't you wish to sit on the throne over there?
That's where he is.
Yes.
- Did you only notice him now? - Yes.
King is looking down from his throne.
You are the best.
(You are the best.)
- Don't be envious. - All right.
Your mask suits you well.
(He shyly compliments Music Commander.)
I want to...
- sit there. - All right. He says not yet.
Bohemian Rhapsody, what do you think?
- Since you made it this far, - Yes.
wouldn't it be meaningful to take the throne?
Hi.
(Excited)
The atmosphere is amicable.
All right. What would you like to say...
to the two masked singers who made it to Round Three?
(Pondering)
Today is an important day for me.
I hope both of them will sing as if they are practising.
All right.
What an indirect request.
He wants them to sing as if they are practising.
Today is an important and special day indeed.
Music Commander aims to make history with six consecutive wins,
which has never happened on King of Mask Singer.
Will these two masked singers be able to stop him?
Let's begin the Final Round.
Please Vote on 13th April...
will perform first.
Give him a round of applause.
(Please Vote on 13th April)
He seems like a sloppy man, but he can sing so well.
- Which song will he sing? - Maybe he isn't used to the stage.
(It looks as if he has given up on winning.)
Where does he get that kind of energy?
There is something energetic about him.
He is extraordinary.
(Extraordinary energy surrounds him.)
I hope he does a good job.
(Can he prove himself...)
(as the rival of the invincible Music Commander?)
(Will he show his capability?)
("Butterfly" by Ha Dong Gyoun)
(His sloppy side evaporates.)
(His husky voice is melodious from the start.)
He has a wonderful voice.
(Even though he calmly sings about a breakup,)
(deep sorrow is hidden in his voice.)
(His deep voice...)
(touches the listeners' hearts.)
I think his voice is naturally husky.
I think that's his voice.
It sounds a bit different when he hits high notes.
(His deep and husky voice is full of manliness.)
(He conveys emotions even in his breaths.)
(With all his might,)
(he gives life to the song.)
(The explosive energy of his voice stirs everyone's soul.)
(His outstanding performance captivated the audience.)
(They are awestruck.)
I love his voice.
- Who on earth is he? - I have no idea.
(He did his best for the performance.)
His opponent...
defeated the actress Yoon Yoo Sun and the singer Tim.
She will put an end to her roaming life on the throne.
Bohemian Rhapsody!
(Bohemian Rhapsody)
(The queen of gypsy is coming.)
(She catches everyone's attention.)
Which song is she singing?
I guess she will sound totally different this time.
She sang an upbeat song in the previous round.
I hope she chose a good song.
(She showed a very impressive performance in the previous round.)
(Will her performance be even more impressive in this round?)
("Drink Again" by Vibe)
(She chose a sorrowful ballad song for Round Three.)
(She almost whispers.)
(Her voice touches everyone's heart warmly.)
(Like filling a wine glass,)
(her voice fills people's hearts with her emotions.)
- She sounds like Jang Hye Jin. - I know.
She also sounds like Shin Hyo Bum in a way.
I can feel the song in my bones.
(She is singing the song with deep emotions.)
(She can't even breathe in the deep sorrow.)
(Bohemian Rhapsody soothes people's hearts with a warm voice.)
(Reaching the highlight of the song,)
(she sings with her outburst of emotion.)
(It was like a warm monologue of Bohemian Rhapsody.)
- It was stunning. - I loved it.
I like the ending.
It makes me want to drink even though I don't like drinking.
You won't understand the feeling if you don't drink.
- I'm sorry. - She's a decent singer.
The Final Round is finally over.
We have two masked singers here.
Who do you think should be...
the rival of Music Commander in My Town...
and the 27th King of Mask Singer?
Please press the button right now.
Who will be the last singer?
All votes are in.
Music Commander, how did you like their performances?
Whenever I watch Round Three,
I lose my confidence.
I was absorbed in their performance.
You are about to set a new record.
Maybe that's why you were more absorbed in their performances.
Okay. Please get ready...
for your performance now. Please give him a big hand.
(Music Commander will sing in the Final Match soon.)
He is looking for his sixth successive win.
Music Commander in My Town.
They've shown us their full capacity.
- Rhapsody. - Bohemian.
I liked it because it didn't seem like she did her best.
- In other words, - Yes.
Yoon Min Su sings the song...
as if he is drinking himself to death.
- It's like gulping down alcohol. - I see.
- You mean the original version. - By the time he's done drinking,
he becomes dead drunk.
He can't remember anything the next day.
But Bohemian Rhapsody sang the song...
- like drinking beer slowly. - Okay.
Then she even got over a hangover with a soup at the end.
She came back home sober and went to bed.
I didn't know she could sing the song like that.
She touched us quietly. She is a good singer.
Meanwhile, Please Vote sang...
- with the dynamics. - With the dynamics?
When he is off, he looks very clumsy.
(When he is off, he looks very clumsy.)
Like the clumsy gait.
(Dawdling)
(Clumsy)
I have felt that way since Round Two.
Even his way of speaking sounds very clumsy.
I'm not sure if he is a singer or not.
But once he starts singing,
he dominates the stage...
with his performance.
(Before he starts singing, he is off.)
(Once he starts singing,)
(he gets absorbed in his performance.)
I'd call him "a shoot actor" if he was an actor.
He goes crazy with the cue signal.
(He falls into his character.)
(Laughing)
- He goes crazy with the cue signal. - That's right.
He looks feeble and tired but changes once music starts.
(He becomes so lively.)
I'm not sure if I'm just imagining it or not,
but if I sing like him, I will lose...
at least one kilogram after singing one song.
(Passionate)
(He moves a lot while singing as if he's working out.)
(Say goodbye to your body fat.)
(Please Vote will help you reduce your body fat.)
- Okay. - He even looks slimmer than before.
Does he look slimmer than before?
Yes. I thought he was a member of "2BiC" before.
- But does he look slim now? - He looks much slimmer now.
Okay. K.will feels that way.
- As for Bohemian Rhapsody, - Okay. Bohemian Rhapsody.
she put a stress on the first note...
and sang the following part lightly.
(Drink again)
She knows how to pay attention to the smallest details...
to express the dynamics of the song.
So I'm pretty sure that she is a master of singing.
All the while I listened to Please Vote,
my pride was hurt.
I couldn't believe I didn't know who the singer was...
after all the years I listened to countless songs.
I felt sorry for myself. Thank you for your song.
All right. What do you say, Jin Young?
Well, I don't think I'm in a position to evaluate them.
My personal opinion on both of them is...
- Thumb up - She's doing it again.
Please stop it.
- My goodness. - Why?
- Now... - Thumb up
- Gosh, please stop doing that. - She does it all the time.
(At any moment and any place...)
(she gives a thumb up.)
She promotes her new song whenever she has a chance.
Thumb up
Thumb up.
- Stop it. - Are you a publicity manager?
Okay. It seems she doesn't care who wins.
Whoever the winner may be, she just wants to promote her song.
(We can't stop her.)
While I was listening to the voice of Please Vote,
a certain actor occurred to me.
Someone occurred to you?
He's persistent, rustic...
and manly.
- Sometimes, he's also shy. - Go on.
His voice reminded me of Cho Jin Woong.
- Cho Jin Woong? - Yes.
(Inarticulate but sincere voice)
(Can Cho Jin Woong be Please Vote?)
I got the feeling that he might be Cho Jin Woong.
You have varied guesses to whom he may be.
- All right. Now... - Gosh!
I'm dying to know.
I'll announce the result of...
- Final Round. - I can't wait to know the result.
I'll announce the result of the Final Round.
The tremendous vocalist,
Please Vote on 13th April.
Sentimental and charismatic Bohemian Rhapsody.
Between these two masked singers,
who will be the winner to advance to the Final Match?
We'll announce the last survivor.
(With his explosive energy,)
(Please Vote touched everyone's heart.)
(With her whispering, warm and sweet voice,)
(Rhapsody put deep emotions in every breath.)
Who will be the winner and become the contender...
for Music Commander, who's aiming for six consecutive win?
The winner is...
Gosh.
- I'm really curious. - Who will be the winner?
Gosh, I'm so nervous.
(Nobody knows who'll be the winner.)
(Everybody nervously waits for the announcement.)
(Who will be the winner of this close match?)
The winner of this match is...
The winner is...
(Please Vote wins.)
Please Vote wins.
(Oh, my goodness)
(Did I win?)
(Yay!)
Please Vote wins.
Please Vote on 13th April...
defeated Bohemian Rhapsody...
with a final score of 61 to 38.
He's won with a score of 61 to 38.
He's become the candidate for the King of Mask Singer.
He's the candidate for the 27th King of Mask Singer.
(He keeps bowing.)
(He is cute.)
(He is highly excited.)
Congratulations. All right.
He is too excited.
Please go to the back stage.
He seems to have not expected this.
The Final Match to decide the 27 King of Mask Singer...
will be held between Please Vote and Music Commander,
both the male singers.
(He dances out of excitement.)
Well, now...
let's...
I feel giddy.
(He bursts out laughing.)
(Please Vote enjoys the joy of the victory.)
Then, who will this singer be?
It's time to see her face.
Please remove your mask...
and show us who you are.
I think she's hiding something from us.
I'm sure she's an unknown master singer.
I think she's Jung Kyoung Hwa who sang "Invitation to Myself."
- Jung Kyoung Hwa? - Yes.
I thought of the jazz singer Woong San.
- I see. A jazz singer Woong San. - Yes.
Please show us who you are.
This is...
(Stunned)
This is...
- Who is she? - Who is it?
Please remove your mask and show us who you are.
This is...
Asian jazz diva...
Woong San.
(Wow!)
She was right.
(Solji's guess was right.)
Amazing.
(She's one of the legendary jazz singers in Korea.)
Hello, everybody.
I'm jazz vocalist Woong San. It's nice to meet you.
(She made a debut in 1996 and has been a singer for 20 years.)
(She got Best Korean Jazz Album Award in 2008,)
(Japanese Swing Journal Golden Disc in 2010...)
(and Japanese Jazz Audio Disc Golden Prize in 2011.)
(She brought on the jazz wave even in China and Japan.)
(She's one of the best jazz singers in Asia.)
To be prepared for this show,
I tried to sing over hundred songs that I was not familiar with.
I didn't know what to sing on this stage,
so I tried a large number of songs.
- There were many beautiful songs. - All right.
You've rejected our invitation to this show over and over.
I wonder what made you change your mind.
Since the general public is not so familiar with jazz music,
I decided to come on this show to provoke interest in jazz.
- That's why. - All right.
For the panellists and viewers,
could you sing a bit of jazz tune?
I think it will help people get interested in jazz.
Please show us a bit.
(Fly to the moon)
(And let me play among the stars)
(Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars)
(In other words, hold my hand)
(In other words, I love you)
All right.
- Seong Ju. - It's fascinating.
- That was wonderful. - Seong Ju.
Go ahead, Jang Hyuk.
- She's very good at scat singing. - Scat?
- Scat! - Scat.
We'd like to hear Woong San's great scat singing.
Please clap your hands to this rhythm.
(Woong San's improvised scat singing)
(The queen of scat plays with rhythms.)
(She steals the show again in a second.)
(Her voice is like a sophisticated musical instrument.)
(She freely flows through the scale.)
(He's excited.)
(A sweet performance of the queen of scat.)
That's great.
She made us fall for jazz even more.
- Thank you. - All right.
Do you want to break any stereotype through this show?
You know, I'm wearing pretty thick eye makeup.
I may look scary, but I never hurt anybody.
And this is how I usually talk.
I'm no different from any kind woman in your neighbourhood.
I hope you think of me as a comfortable person.
She tried to take a step closer to the public.
She is the Asian jazz diva, Woong San.
Please give her a big hand.
Thank you so much.
(Go, Woong San!)
(Thank you.)
It was so much fun.
Actually, the experience that I had today was very unusual...
and it was so pleasurable.
If people can get more interested in jazz because of me,
I couldn't be happier.
I hope I could spread this wonderful energy...
to as many people as possible.
I mean this energy that makes them feel great.
In Round Three,
Please Vote on 13th April...
defeated Woong San and moved on to the Final Match.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
It's time to see the performance of Music Commander,
who has to defend his title.
Can he set a new record with his sixth consecutive win?
Please welcome Music Commander who aims to be the 27th King.
(Starting Now!)
(Final Match)
The 27th Final Match.
He confidently moves forward to a new record.
He aspires to achieve his sixth consecutive win.
The 26th King of Mask Singer,
Music Commander in My Town.
(Music Commander in My Town)
(His aura shines through the path.)
(Here comes Music Commander.)
(You are awesome.)
Way to go!
(Way to go!)
His voice matches the name and the costume.
He looks so cute!
He is so cute.
Do you know what comes from that cuteness?
Is he that good?
I'm really excited to see him.
I'm thrilled.
(He surprised people every time he came on the stage.)
(If he wins again, he's setting a new record.)
(What performance did he prepare?)
("Hayeoga" by Seo Taiji and Boys.)
(He takes control of the audience from the beginning.)
(It's "Hayeoga" by Seo Taiji and Boys!)
(He shouts.)
(His low voice overwhelms the crowd.)
(A cold-hearted whisper is different from that of Seo Taiji's.)
(Groove flows with the drum beat.)
(His enchanting voice oscillates between coldness and warmth.)
(He roars his heart off.)
(His powerful falsetto explodes.)
(His vocalisation has no limit.)
(Music Commander's "Hayeoga" was more than impressive.)
(The applause goes on in appreciation of his passion.)
(You are the best.)
(He's incredible!)
He's unbelievable.
He gave me goosebumps.
Who in the world can beat him?
(Wow!)
All I can say is wow.
The Final Round to choose our 27th King of Mask Singer has ended.
It is time to make a choice now.
Music Commander took over the stage with his powerful voice.
Will he set a new record as a singer who won six times in a row?
Or will Please Vote on 13th April who emerged as a dark horse...
with an amazing voice...
be the new King of Mask Singer?
All votes are in.
Please say hello to each other.
Attention, bow.
(You are the best!)
Thank you for your effort.
(They are hugging each other.)
They are hugging.
They are both music lovers.
Maybe that's why they welcome each other.
I wonder what our first King of Mask Singer felt about the Final Match.
I'm not sure if I can say this,
but you are out of your mind.
- Oh, is he? - Yes. Totally.
To be honest,
I was curious about Music Commander's stage.
And seeing his stage in person,
I could sense his overwhelming power.
He doesn't seem to have a limit.
He's really good.
- Is he? - I was so surprised.
Gu Ra, you smiled continuously...
while you were listening to Music Commander.
(Gu Ra was smiling all the way.)
(He even grinned.)
(Why did he grin?)
Do you have anything to say?
Please Vote just...
(He was not looking at Music Commander but Please Vote.)
A while ago Please Vote was...
- jumping and so thrilled. - I see.
(I did.)
You smiled because of Please Vote.
- You were worried about him. - He might have a tough time.
I'll get you a drink later.
(I'll get you a drink later.)
The result hasn't been revealed yet.
I watch people around me when Music Commander sings.
I saw Ye Won today.
On her face, there was a look that ladies have...
when they are in love.
(Hands are gathered naturally.)
(And it's not just Ye Won.)
(He's so amazing.)
(What's wrong with him?)
(Music Commander, you go boy!)
There's one thing I learned this time.
If a King of Mask Singer rules for four or five weeks,
some people want the king...
to be changed.
Some people want to see the king...
beaten by a new singer.
Music Commander is...
- very likable. - I see.
I hope that he would be King of Mask Singer through summer.
So that he can suffer in that outfit.
(So that he can suffer in that outfit.)
That would be nice.
The temperature is 35°C in northern provinces.
It's the legendary Music Commander.
He challenges 15 consecutive wins.
(It's so hot.)
I always think so highly of...
Music Commander's stage.
The song was perfect as usual.
On top of that, today he showed an experimenting spirit.
He sang a lot of songs that are unfamiliar to him.
But for today,
it's not music but magic.
It was really, really great.
Also, I agree...
with Gu Ra.
I want to see you for another 20 to 30 weeks.
Although you might suffer in summer.
- I see. - It was a great stage.
It's okay for him to rule for a long time.
Kim Heung Kook said that...
he will beat the King of Mask Singer.
- Is he getting ready? - He is practising.
- So watch out. - He's very experienced.
- So it's highly possible. - He wants to beat you.
- I see. - He went to America to study music.
Ye Won, Gu Ra said that he saw you holding hands when listening to him.
I was amazed.
I wondered where his limit is.
It was the first time I ever heard that kind of voice and vocalisation.
- I was amazed. - All right.
You made even experienced singers amazed.
Lee Duke Jean, how did you like him?
Since the king is so good...
I don't have any more word to praise him.
I'd like to speak about Please Vote,
- who's standing alone over there. - You mean Please Vote.
I heard him in Round Two and Three.
And I hope to see him become the King of Mask Singer...
since he has such a powerful voice.
His gestures are so clumsy,
so I think he's a rookie.
I'm worried that he might lose...
his spirit on the stage.
- Oh, you're giving him an advice. - I'm a bit worried.
I hope to see him succeed in the future.
What do you think, Please Vote?
I won't be disappointed.
Thank you so much for your support.
- Right. - Thank you.
The result hasn't come out yet.
- Can I say a word? - Shin Bo Ra!
When I heard Music Commander sing,
it was like being overwhelmed by the great Mother Nature.
Nature's wonders like the Grand Canyon or Angkor Wat.
(His stage was more than a stage where we could feel Mother Nature.)
(It was Mother Nature itself.)
I was shocked that a man's vocal chords can make such sounds.
- I was absolutely overwhelmed. - I see.
- By contrast, Please Vote... - Yes?
was very straightforward in delivery.
His performance wasn't overwhelming,
but his sentiments came and touched my heart.
So if Music Commander is like the Grand Canyon or Angkor Wat,
what would you say Please Vote is? To name a tourist spot?
Next to the Grand Canyon and Angkor Wat, what is Please Vote?
- Which tourist attraction? - The feeling of seeing...
- our ancestors twirl straw... - Okay.
- at a Korean Folk Village. - A Korean Folk Village?
The feeling I'd get when I see our ancestors at work.
- That's very straightforward. - I know.
We heard what the panellists had to say.
May I please say something serious?
- I'll be serious this time. - If you do "Thumb Up" again...
Hold her thumbs down. Say what you have to say seriously.
You were going to give the thumb up again, right?
No, actually...
I've been here as a guest panellist many times...
(Here's a thumb!)
Thank you.
Thumb up
All right.
We heard what the panellists had to say.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
We will now announce the results...
for the Final Match to decide the 27th King of Mask Singer.
Who will be the hero...
of the 27th throne of the King of Mask Singer?
We will now announce...
today's King of Mask Singer.
(We will announce now.)
(In Round One, he sang "When Would It Be" in a gentle voice.)
(Singing "Shout of Myself",)
(he showed off his powerful vocals.)
(The epitome of sensitivity, Round Three)
(He touched everyone's heart singing "Butterfly".)
(Shaking the whole studio...)
(with his other-worldly and powerful voice,)
(he showed a performance that broke all expectations.)
(Music Commander, the fired-up King of Mask Singer)
The 27th King of Mask Singer...
that the audience voted for is...
The winner is...
(The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer)
- The winner is... - Who is it?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(The wait feels longer than usual.)
Oh, my gosh.
(Will there be a new record?)
(Or will our new dark horse break the string of victories?)
Today's winner between Please Vote and Music Commander is...
(The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer)
On the show's first birthday,
will we see a new record?
Or will he be held back from becoming the King?
Today's winner between Please Vote...
and Music Commander is...
Today's winner between Please Vote and Music Commander is...
Music Commander has won.
(Music Commander wins his sixth straight throne.)
(He breaks Catgirl's record...)
(and writes the new history.)
(The panellists smile, looking much more relaxed.)
Amazing.
He is too strong.
Music Commander is our first-ever...
six times' King of Mask Singer.
Breaking Catgirl's record,
Music Commander succeeds in...
becoming six times' King of Mask Singer...
for the first time in the show's history.
Congratulations. This is incredible.
Please congratulate him with another round of applause.
(Congratulations.)
His throne has been secured for 12 weeks.
Music Commander writes history...
that Catgirl, Cleopatra, and Cosmos were not able to write...
by achieving his sixth victory today.
We want to hear from the winner with six consecutive wins.
Thank you so much.
Today is the best day of my life.
(Congratulations.)
- Hey. - Yes?
Since you became the king for the sixth time,
give us all a box of rice cake in your name.
It's not a hard thing to do.
- Okay, I will talk to my agency. - Please do.
- He must be happy. - We don't ask for too much.
- Some rice cake will do. - Exactly.
The reason I chose...
to sing this song today...
was because Seo Taiji and Boys...
was my idol since I was a boy.
So I had a lot of fun looking back on...
the good memories from my childhood.
I don't know if you guys enjoyed my performance...
as much as I did, but I hope you did.
- Thank you. - All right.
For security reasons, we have to ask you...
to step down from the stage now after marching on the stage.
Please congratulate him once again with a round of applause.
(The march of the 27th King of Mask Singer)
All right.
(Wherever he passes, he gets applauded.)
Music Commander is receiving a lot of love...
from the panellists, the audience,
and our viewers for his dynamic performances.
(He walks down the stage like a kid.)
You were close to becoming the new King of Mask Singer.
I know.
He knows. So you did have your hopes up?
I would be lying if I said I didn't.
(He bursts out laughing.)
Did you come from the faraway mountains?
- No. Not really. - I see.
Let's find out who this person is.
Please Vote,
please take off your mask and show us who you are.
His voice is already perfected.
- He is a monster. - A monster?
He is a very talented singer,
but I have no clue who he is.
Please Vote,
please take off your mask and show us who you are.
Who is it?
This is...
- Who is it? - Who is it?
Please take off your mask and show us who you are.
This is...
Han Dong Geun, the winner of the audition programme,
"The Great Birth Season Three".
(The guy under the veil)
(The reason no one could guess who he was)
Is that Han Dong Geun?
(Now she remembers the name.)
(I really don't know that guy.)
(Laughing)
Okay.
Hello, I'm the winner of "The Great Birth Season Three",
Han Dong Geun.
("Desperado" by Eagles)
(He was called as the little Yim Jae Beum.)
The winner is Han Dong Geun. Congratulations.
(He captivates people's hearts with his unique voice.)
Han Dong Geun.
(After winning the audition programme "The Great Birth",)
(he started his career as a singer.)
(But besides releasing three albums,)
(he didn't really show himself on television.)
A lot of people were disappointed they couldn't see you often.
I did release three albums,
and I sang in musicals, too.
But I didn't come out on the television too often.
Did you have a special reason for that?
- My boss... - Yes?
said I was too fat.
(My boss said I was too fat.)
He wanted you to slim down before coming on television.
- Yes, and I agree with that. - So he was being considerate.
- He does have a point. - All right.
- I agree with him. - You do?
A lot of singers these days...
lose a lot of weight before...
- they come on television. - Right. I envy them so much.
- For example, Park Bo Ram. - Right.
That's what I am saying. How do they do that?
(How do they do that?)
I took every single...
- diet pills out there, - Yes?
but I think pills make me even fatter.
What are you talking about?
I've never heard of anyone who gained weight from pills.
I heard Han Dong Geun has a special someone...
he wants to talk to amongst the panellists today.
Who is it?
Why are you laughing? Who is it?
- Solji. - Do you want to talk to Solji?
Do you have something to say to Solji?
I'm a big fan of yours.
(He's confessing his love for her.)
Her voice and looks are both very nice.
(She looks nice.)
- Thank you. - He's talking to her as a fan.
He's a funny guy.
There must be something Solji wants to tell Dong Geun.
I've been wanting to tell him...
that his voice is very charming...
when he sings, so I think he'll be able...
to captivate women's hearts.
- Thank you for your performance. - Thank you.
All right.
Dong Geun was able to touch all of us...
with only his voice today.
- Please give him a big hand. - Thank you.
(Dong Geun, we look forward to listening to your music.)
Great job.
(Dong Geun steps down from the stage looking excited.)
I feel happy. It's been a while.
Thank you for having me on the show.
I've had ill feelings inside for a while.
I thought to myself, "I used to be a good singer."
"What am I doing here?"
"Even if it means my throat will be ruined,"
"I want to sing on the stage."
"I want to hear people cheer for me."
Those were the thoughts that filled my head.
Through my performances on King of Mask Singer,
I realised once again...
that music brings me happiness.
Viewers, please continue to support King of Mask Singer...
and the singer Han Dong Geun.
Thank you.
