Last week.
This is Shoo from the girl group, S.E.S.
Last week, we saw many familiar faces...
and beautiful challenges in the performances.
However, we'll see fiercer competitions this week.
Masked singers will captivate the panellists with their charms.
Unpredictable Andromeda.
Do You Believe in Magic Castle.
Half Moon Unlike Half Moon.
Express Train Roller Coaster.
And the one they are waiting for has...
more than two million views on his video.
He set the unprecedented record of six consecutive wins with "Hayeoga".
He is the ruler on stage. Music Commander in My Town.
The expected 28th King of Mask Singer.
According to the online mobile survey,
netizens' expectation for...
the 28th King of Mask Singer is Music Commander in My Town...
followed by Do You Believe in Magic Castle.
I think I'm faced with the biggest hurdle today.
I'm very nervous.
Would Music Commander be able to overcome himself...
and set the legendary record of seven consecutive wins?
The 28th King of Mask Singer is...
The shocking and awestricken competition is...
about to begin now.
(King of Mask Singer)
The first match of Round Two.
She defeated the singer Won Mi Yeon.
A song of a fairy shining like a full moon.
Half Moon Unlike Half Moon!
(Half Moon Unlike Half Moon)
(With her lovely steps,)
(she comes onto the stage.)
(Welcome, Half Moon!)
She is very good.
- I'll watch her with expectations. - I'm excited already.
What song is she going to sing?
(Half Moon is good at singing in high-pitched tones.)
(Her performance gave them chills.)
(Her voice would easily reach the sky.)
(She is a terrific singer who has a great high-pitched tone.)
I'm sure she is a singer.
It is impossible for her not to be a singer.
If she sings a solo,
I'm sure she will move on to the Final Round.
- Really? - Yes.
(The panellists already expected her to become the King of Mask Singer.)
(Will she show a performance...)
(that will reach their expectations?)
("Who's Your Mama" by Park Jin Young)
- What? - Is this "Who's Your Mama"?
("Who's Your Mama" by Park Jin Young)
(How would her song sound like?)
It's amazing.
(With the rhythm of the bass...)
In 1, 2, 3, 4.
(Wow!)
(Her voice sounds so fascinating in the rhythm.)
(They are dancing to the rhythm.)
(Amazed)
(Come on!)
(They can't take their eyes off of her performance.)
(Smiling)
(Wow!)

(This is like a festival!)
(Shake it! Shake it!)
Who is she?
Come on!
(Oh, my gosh!)
(She is even a good rapper.)
(She even changed the rap lyrics.)
(Half Moon has her own captivating magnetism.)
(This is so good.)
(Her whispering voice sounds sexy.)
(From her rapping to fantastic high-pitched voice,)
(everything about her performance was amazing.)
(That was so cool.)
(They have nothing but admiration for her performance.)
Wow, she is unbelievable.
My hair stood on end.
- She's young, right? - I bet she is a rapper.
Her opponent is...
a man who defeated One Junn of Boys Republic.
He has a dynamic sensitivity.
Express Train Roller Coaster!
(Express Train Roller Coaster)
(As soon as his name is called...)
(Cheering)
(A great cheer breaks out from the audience.)
(He already has a lot of fans.)
- Who on earth is he? - I know.
He is very short, but he's a great singer.
There won't be a surprise as he was too good in Round One.
- He will be even better this time. - I agree.
(He's got a sweet voice that stirs everyone's soul.)
(I like it so much.)
(He has a perfect voice tone and great singing skills.)
He has a rich and strong voice.
I think he is a soloist.
(Is Roller Coaster Zion.T?)
(However,)
(he is also a great dancer.)
I think he is a member of ULALA SESSION...
- Myung Hoon? - Yes, Myung Hoon.
Or Eun Kwang of BTOB.
Eun Kwang!
(As he appears,)
(women are bewitched already.)
(How would he impress the audience this time?)
("How to Avoid the Sun" by RAIN)
(Roller Coaster is immersed in emotions.)
He's going to sing this song?
- This song? - Oh my gosh.
(This song requires one to be good at singing,)
(dancing and expressing emotions.)
(Cheering)
(The audience let out an exclamation as he starts singing.)
- Goodness. - It is over.
(It is shocking from the beginning.)
It's like I'm playing a CD.
Who on earth is he?
(His sweet voice pierces their hearts.)
(Yo!)
(The rhythm has changed.)
(He still sings perfectly while dancing.)
(Amazed)
(He shows off his dancing skills singing perfectly.)
(This is unbelievable.)
(Screaming)
(Laughing out of shock)
(Roller Coaster fills the stage with his presence.)
(He carries out intricate emotions as if he is in a play.)
(He even dances.)
(Roller Coaster doesn't let the audience catch a break.)
(Heave-ho)
(This is a splendid roller coaster no one wants to get off.)
(He lets his voice carry out the emotions until the end.)
(The audience can't help but marvel at him.)
(You are in my heart!)
(Cheering)
(He is the best.)
(His performance was close to perfection.)
(The audience continues to applaud him.)
(The excitement brought on by the performance lingers in the air.)
(It was amazing.)
- It was amazing. - Gosh, I have no words.
I got goosebumps.
(Roller Coaster is the best.)
I can't believe he sang so perfectly while dancing.
That was unreal.
(He is the king material.)
(The audience is still recuperating from the shock.)
I got goosebumps.
Let's invite Half Moon back on the stage.
(Gosh, it's Half Moon.)
They are the best.
Half Moon and Roller Coaster should be in different matches.
I agree.
It feels so much like the Final Round.
(The king is nervous.)
(They are such threatening opponents.)
The first match of Round Two...
came to an end.
Whose performance showed more intensity?
Press the button right now...
for the masked singer who touched your heart.
- Roller Coaster and Half Moon. - What should I do?
Between these two masked singers,
who will move on to Round Three?
All votes are in.
The first match...
was truly like a war.
Both masked singers showed us shocking performances.
I think both of them gave us...
one of the best performances in the history of the show.
- I will not evaluate... - Okay.
- Roller Coaster's singing skills. - I see.
However, I have written words.
- Written words? - Yes.
Did you write him a letter?
You were born to be a musician.
(You were born to be a musician.)
(Reverent)
(What is with this atmosphere?)
I can't begin to imagine how hard you must have practised.
I was ashamed of myself during the entire performance.
I don't think I have strived...
- to be the best. - Hyun Chul should be ashamed, too.
- I have lacked the drive, - Hyun Chul, look back on yourself.
- You should look back on yourself. - while doing music.
For the first time in the history of King of Mask Singer,
a panellist wrote a letter.
I honestly don't think...
I am in a position to judge him...
- on his breath control and such. - I see.
I have no words.
Look, Jang Hyuk.
If you say that,
what are comedians like us supposed to say to him?
- Should I write him a poem? - What should we do?
- I don't know what to do. - Opinions can differ.
What should we do?
Jang Hyuk was moved by Roller Coaster's performance.
I also wrote something close to a diary.
I see.
(Fan letters flood in.)
I don't think I have strived to be as funny as I can be.
(Giggling)
(A memory of the past emerges.)
(It was 20 years ago. He was 25 years old back then.)
Despite dancing harder than Hurricane Blue,
Roller Coaster could sing live.
- I should look back on myself. - I see.
That's the diary I wrote.
I would like to thank both masked singers.
(I would like to thank both masked singers.)
Both masked singers are amazing.
I want them to go out with each other.
- You want them to go out... - That's right.
- with each other. - Yes.
Roller Coaster is interested.
They should be in a relationship.
- That's what I think. - Roller Coaster is interested.
Half Moon is embarrassed.
Even their masks match.
Imagine a scene with a roller coaster and the half moon.
Imagine the half moon hanging above a roller coaster.
- It's a beautiful picture. - It's an amusement park at night.
- That's right. - I see.
They should be in a relationship.
As for Half Moon,
I was shocked...
to see her rap.
I think she is a rapper...
with a hidden voice like a jewel.
You think she primarily raps.
Yes, I think she is a rapper who can sing very well.
- She is a talented rapper. - That's right.
- I was very surprised. - I see.
As for Roller Coaster...
What is your name? I am your fan.
You are his fan. You want to know who he is.
I really want to know who he is.
I have no clue who he could be.
You would think everyone knows someone as talented as him.
Is he a member of ULALA SESSION?
- Kim Myung Hoon? - Is he not?
Gu Ra mentioned him last week.
I don't think he is Kim Myung Hoon.
I know Seong Ju's patterns.
If Roller Coaster were Myung Hoon,
Seong Ju wouldn't have brought up his name.
- You are right. - So he can't be Myung Hoon.
I know Seong Ju's patterns.
- Why are you studying my patterns? - No, it's not that.
She could be Anchor C.
- Anchor Cha Ye Rin. - That's right.
Hello, my name is Chung In Young.
(Smiling)
(Alpha Gu Ra has analysed his patterns.)
There is a member of ULALA SESSION who is short and has a beard.
You mean Kim Myung Hoon.
- Myung Hoon. - Myung Hoon.
(You can't fool me any more.)
- So he can't be Myung Hoon. - No, he can't.
- That's a prejudice. - No, it's not.
- That's a prejudice. - You are too easy to read.
Roller Coaster isn't Kim Myung Hoon.
I am 100 percent certain of it.
You inadvertently told me that he isn't Kim Myung Hoon.
Suit yourself.
I can't believe you studied my patterns.
All right.
(His identity is a mystery.)
I have a question about Roller Coaster.
Have we ever heard him talk?
When?
Since last week,
- You mean he hasn't conversed. - he hasn't said a single word.
He hasn't talked.
(It's shocking.)
I want to know if he was a chorus singer.
(He only motioned with his hands.)
He can do a girl group's dance.
What can you show us?
(He hid his voice.)
Who are you?
- Is he a foreigner? - You are right.
He never speaks.
- He only gave answers. - That's right.
- Even the answers were short. - He never speaks.
He never speaks.
I am so scared. I can't remain seated.
He hasn't said a single word.
Even now, he isn't trying to defend himself.
- Could he be a foreigner? - You have a point.
He never speaks.
This is fascinating.
- I have goosebumps. - All right.
Look, Seong Ju's face is turning red.
He is hiding something. What are you hiding?
- I am not hiding anything. - No way.
- He could be another foreigner. - He hasn't said anything,
because you didn't give him a chance to.
Wait a minute. Maybe the producer is giving him signals.
Are you looking for an interpreter?
My goodness, this is really scary.
Why wouldn't he talk?
Perhaps he has social anxiety disorder.
Are you listening to yourself? He wouldn't be here in that case.
- There are so many people here. - All right.
Roller Coaster's performance...
was like a magic trick.
He danced like Park Nam Jung...
and sang like Shin Yong Jae.
(He has the best dancing and singing skills.)
(Roller Coaster has all.)
- That's a high praise. - Yes.
He is a hybrid of Park Nam Jung and Shin Yong Jae.
It seems like Roller Coaster has moved and inspired people.
Half Moon's voice was beautiful from the beginning.
It was pleasant to the ears.
This is what I did without even realising.
Every time she sang, "Who's your mama?",
I answered, "Her name is Kim Ae Ja."
(Who's your mama?)
Her name is Kim Ae Ja.
(His monodrama of madness continued throughout the performance.)
My mother's name is Kim Ae Ja.
Kim Ae Ja.
My mother name is Kim Ae Ja and my father's name is Lee Su Gi.
My sisters' names are Lee Yeon Kyung and Lee Eun Jin.
(Kim Ae Ja, Lee Su Gi, Lee Yeon Kyung, Lee Eun Jin)
- I even... - You are a good son.
I even blurted out my sisters' names.
That's how much the song swayed me.
- You couldn't help but answer. - That's right.
It seems like both performances...
filled everyone with awe and wonder.
It's time to announce the result.
It's Half Moon versus Roller Coaster.
Between these two masked singers,
who will move on to Final Round?
I will now announce the winner.
(Who will be the winner?)
(Half Moon's singing skills filled the song with energy.)
(She is a diva whose voice lifted the burden in everyone's heart.)
(He's good at both singing and dancing.)
(Roller Coaster put on a perfect performance.)
The first winner of the Semi-finals will...
advance to Round Three, the final round.
The winner is...
Go Half Moon! Go Half Moon!
Roller Coaster! Roller Coaster!
No, I want them both.
I don't want any of them to be eliminated.
(It's harsh but unavoidable...)
(to announce a winner.)
(Who will be the winner?)
The winner who can move on to Final Round is...
(Roller Coaster wins.)
Roller Coaster wins.
Roller Coaster is the winner.
(Oh, my goodness.)
Roller Coaster!
(Mixture of feelings cross the panellists.)
(Roller Coaster's fans are happy.)
(They are flustered.)
Roller Coaster defeats Half Moon...
with a score of 37 to 62.
He won by a large margin of votes. Please prepare for the next round.
Please give him a big hand.
(The identity of Half Moon will be revealed soon.)
Roller Coaster showed us his remarkable talents.
(He stays quiet.)
(Roller Coaster will keep running.)
Looking beautiful in a white dress,
she showed us her beautiful voice and unexpected rapping skills.
Who could this multi-talented Half Moon be?
Please move to the back of the stage and remove your mask.
Half Moon.
(She is an excellent singer.)
Remove your mask...
and show us who you are.
I wondered if I was really hearing her sing live...
or her lip-sync to a recorded song.
I was really not sure.
Her performance was faultless.
She looks young,
but she still sounds very bluesy.
Please remove your mask and show us who you are.
(Surprised)
What? Who is she?
What's going on?
Half Moon.
Please remove your mask...
and show us who you are.
This is Whee In of MAMAMOO.
It's MAMAMOO!
(It's MAMAMOO!)
(Nobody expected to see her.)
(Exclamation and cheer continue.)
(She is a member of the girl group MAMAMOO.)
Would you say hello to the viewers?
Yes. Hello, I'm Whee In of MAMAMOO.
- It's nice to meet you. - She is Whee In.
(Whee In is the lead vocalist of MAMAMOO.)
(They debuted in 2014 with "Mr. Ambiguous".)
(They recently topped eight music shows with "You're the Best".)
(She won the "Duet Song Festival".)
Congratulations.
(Her fans love her vividness.)
How do you feel about the compliments you received today?
I'm deeply grateful for...
all the compliments they have given me.
Among the panellists,
Young Seok lauded her to the skies.
He said she deserved to be the King of Mask Singer.
Half Moon is Whee In of MAMAMOO.
I feel like the time has much advanced.
- The time has advanced? - In my old days,
it was hard to find a young person who sings with such sensibility.
We couldn't even imagine there'd be such a young but great singer.
She was fabulous.
All members of MAMAMOO are known to be pretty talented.
So your team is one of the popular teams nowadays.
What are the stereotypes against your team, if there's any?
Our team is dubbed "Beagle Idols".
- "Beagle Idols"? - Since we are playful and active,
fans call us that.
But we can also be calm at times.
Now, seeing you here, you actually look calm and quiet.
Whee In is quite calm and feminine.
- Yes, she is. - She showed perfect rapping today.
- I agree. - I was very surprised.
It was a good chance to know about her good rapping skills.
What would you like to say before you leave?
I hope I could get more chances to show you good performances.
Thank you for giving me words of encouragement today.
Also, I want to tell myself that I did a good job today.
- All right. - You did a good job.
- At least for today, - Good job.
she showed her charms as a solo, not as a member of her team.
- She was great. - Go home and eat fried chicken.
Please give her a round of applause.
Thank you.
You did a good job.
(She rushes to the backstage.)
It seems she is pretty shy.
(After her passionate stage...)
When I removed my mask and turned around,
the audience gave me wild cheers,
and I was elated.
(Happy)
They encouraged me and gave me good words.
So I gained confidence.
I feel like I could perform on any stage by myself from now on.
I recommend this show to my teammates.
(I recommend this show to my teammates.)
In Round Two, Express Train Roller Coaster...
has defeated Whee In of MAMAMOO and moved on to Round Three.
The second match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
He has beaten Shoo of S.E.S.
His voice does unbelievable magic.
Do You Believe in Magic Castle.
(Do You Believe in Magic Castle)
(Here he comes.)
(Shy)
- He is like a good boy. - A good boy.
His voice was very soft in the previous round.
He didn't show much of his colours.
Who could he be?
(His sweet, tender voice...)
(melted the stage.)
His voice is similar to that of Lee Se Joon.
He is extremely talkative.
Him being talkative means...
that he is in a weak position rather than in power.
- Is he self-conscious? - Yes.
Dance confidently. Immerse yourself in the dancing.
He can do the popping, krumping and everything else.
(When he sings, speaks and dances,)
(he shows a different side of himself.)
(What will he show us this time?)
("I Do" by The One)
Didn't Hyun Chul make this song?
It is amazing.
Look, he is so serious.
(Serious)
(His beautiful voice exudes sadness.)
(His sincere confession touches everyone's heart.)
(With his honest and sincere voice,)
(Magic Castle expresses his noble and pure love.)
This is my favourite song.
He's singing with ease.
I think I've heard his voice somewhere. Who is he?
(Unlike "I Do" sung by The One,)
(his "I Do" adds an impassioned appeal.)
(They are holding their breath.)
(I love you, I do.)
(They were stricken by a flood of emotions.)
My heart broke listening to the song.
- He's good. - He's so good.
Now all he has to do is trying not to be talkative.
Going against him is...
the one who beat the actor, Son Byong Ho.
The voice that will lead us into a new dimension.
Unpredictable Andromeda.
(Unpredictable Andromeda)
(Hello everyone.)
(He suddenly spins around.)
He spun around again on his axis.
It can't be hard to guess who he is from his figure.
If we just look at his figure, he's Yook Joong Wan.
Please show us something different.
(He's expecting a lot.)
(Singing in a soft and clean voice,)
(Andromeda really enjoyed himself on stage.)
I wonder if he is a singer.
He looks like Hong Rok Ki.
- Jab, jab. Good job. - Wow, nice.
- That's martial arts. - Isn't he a kick-boxer?
Kim Dong Hyun?
(Andromeda has shown us many different talents.)
(He will reveal his true colours during this performance.)
(Perk up your ears and listen carefully.)
("Endless" by Flower)
- What is this? What song is this? - It's "Endless".
(Is he going to sing "Endless"?)
What is going on?
(He's a singer.)
What is this?
(They are surprised by his sudden change.)
Isn't he a different person?
(Completely different from Round One,)
(his voice has more depth and ease.)
(He sings of delicate sentiments in such a powerful voice.)
(Andromeda knows how to move his audience.)
He's singing so well today.
What a twist.
(He's giving everyone chills.)
(Andromeda, who are you?)
(He poured his everything into the song, "Endless".)
- I feel so happy. - I think he's a singer.
(His performance was unexpectedly amazing.)
(They were all touched, but...)
What was that?
To be honest, I didn't expect this much from him.
He wasn't this good last week.
I was completely fooled.
He's so good, though.
(I didn't know he'd be this good.)
The second match of Round Two is now over.
Who will move on to Round Three?
All votes are in.
Jang Hyuk seems to have been knocked out of his mind.
What changed?
- He sang "Someone's Dream". - Yes, last week. Andromeda.
Yes, Andromeda.
Was the song that hard for you?
(Oh, well...)
This song isn't...
- an easy one to sing. - Right.
It requires a lot of shouting practise.
But he sang it so easily...
and powerfully.
Even when the key changed, he had no problem singing the high notes.
Magic Castle seems to know...
- how to control his breath. - I see.
Seeing how he has such healthy lungs,
- I think he's in his 20s. - Last week you said 30s.
- I was wrong. - Is he younger than that?
- Yes. He's much younger. - Okay.
In the end, when I heard him sigh,
(He knows how to express the details of a song.)
(He knows how to sing.)
In the end, when I heard his sigh,
I figured that he is a singer...
who is capable of singing with a sad soul.
Does he sound sad because of how he breathes during his song?
- Do you have sad stories to tell? - I think everyone does.
- I knew that... - Yes?
Hyun Chul made this song.
- Hyun Chul made the song, right? - Yes, so I was worried...
that I'd get too nervous...
singing this song in front of Hyun Chul.
But I realised that this song comforted me...
during the difficult days I had in my teenage years.
My question was whether you have any sad stories to tell.
- That means he has many. - Yes, he's right.
- In your teenage years? - Yes.
You think you had a hard time when you were younger.
- Hyun Chul made the song, right? - Wow, Hyun Chul.
- That's amazing. - It's a great song.
He is a true singer-songwriter.
He's a singer-songwriter.
I originally meant the song...
to be sung by a singer in the bad guy persona.
Even though Magic Castle sang the song...
in a nice guy's voice,
the song sounded so complete.
- He liked your interpretation. - I did.
Speaking of Andromeda,
this is a drastic turn of events.
Last week, I suspected that...
- he isn't a singer. - Right.
Now I am certain he is.
Last week, no one guessed...
that Andromeda is a singer.
But this week we have several people who think he is.
Seong Ju, I have something to say about Andromeda.
The songs he sang this week and last week are all from the 90s.
So my guess is that he is a singer...
- who was active during the 90s. - Okay.
As for Magic Castle,
he reminds me of...
a medium or long-range runner from Kenya.
Kenyans are good runners, right?
They are beautiful when they run.
But when you see them speak, your fantasies are shattered.
- When they are interviewed? - Right, though this is a prejudice.
Magic Castle is like that. He's amazing when he's singing.
But when he opens his mouth, he talks way too much.
- He'd benefit from being quieter. - Right, so I think...
he is a singer by nature.
- He should sing rather than talk. - Exactly, he should sing only.
- He's a great singer. - All right.
When Magic Castle is speaking,
he doesn't seem to know what to say.
- He keeps babbling. - I know.
But when he sings,
he knows how to convey the emotion thoroughly.
So I bet he is introverted.
It seems singing means everything to him.
I'm not sure if you heard it or not.
Whenever you say something,
He mutters to himself, doesn't he?
- "Yes." - I knew it.
"That's not it."
- "Oh, no." - I knew it.
- He keeps muttering. - He mumbles...
whenever you say something.
I think he has a powerful voice.
(Nodding)
- They are in their 20s. - Yes.
(Me?)
- He keeps mumbling. - And he keeps nodding.
And he shook his head when it was not right.
He keeps saying something to himself.
I think I've heard of his voice before.
- Do you know his voice? - Yes.
- Someone close? - I'm sure he is an idol singer.
The idol panellists think that he is an idol singer.
He is a member of EXO.
EXO?
- I think he is D.O. - D.O?
(D.O of EXO)
D.O of EXO?
Okay. It seems...
you are not talking about Andromeda at all.
You are only talking about Magic Castle.
He wants you to talk about him, too.
As he really wants you to guess who he is,
he will let you hear his real voice.
Will you sing a chanson?
- Chanson? - Yes.
I will sing a chanson.
Okay. Please give him a round of applause.
(Clearing his throat)
(Singing a chanson)
Did he just say "parboiled octopus"?
(Giggling)
(He doesn't seem to care.)
He said "parboiled octopus"!
(Singing a chanson)
Excuse me.
(Suspicious)
(He continues singing.)
It sounds like "stir-fried chicken feet".
(This is weird.)
(Singing a chanson)
(It sounds so funny.)
He sounded like singing in Korean.
- I agree. - It's like a joke from the 1990s.
It reminded me of Kim Bo Hwa.
Parboiled octopus
- Did you hear that, too? - Yes.
I'm not the only one who heard it that way.
Did you say, "parboiled octopus"?
In fact, it means...
I love parboiled octopus,
so I wanted to go to a bar and have parboiled octopus.
I see.
I got a red pepper paste stain on my shirt, so wiped it with a tissue.
Then, I ate only cucumbers and carrots.
I wanted to eat other things like seafood pancake, chicken feet...
and anchovies.
- Did the song say that? - Yes.
As you and I are unemployed,
we should just have fish cake soup served for free.
- I see. - Is he serious?
- Let's hear the song again. - Okay.
We had no idea about the lyrics first.
(Parboiled octopus)
What should we order?
Parboiled octopus.
I got a red pepper paste stain.
(Singing a chanson)
Please give me cucumbers and carrots.
(Singing a chanson)
- I'm tired of waiting. - I'm tired of waiting.
(Singing a chanson)
Stir-fried chicken feet and dried filefish.
- Anchovies. - I mean anchovies.
You are unemployed.
Split the check.
Fish cake soup.
Let's have fish cake soup.
(That was a work of art.)
(The song includes the grief of living.)
You said "Split the check", too.
- It was nice. - That was unbelievable.
Do you enjoy singing this song with your friends?
I made the song...
thinking about my experience to sing to you here.
- Did you make the song? - He did.
He is a singer-songwriter.
- He is! - He is amazing.
- He's an amazing singer-songwriter. - He is a singer-songwriter.
(There are two singer-songwriters in this programme.)
Magic Castle, can you sing a chanson, too?
- I will sing a bit. - Okay. He can do it.
Magic Castle looks confident.
(Singing a chanson)
(He mutters something unintelligible.)
- I'm sorry. - Did you sing the same song?
I thought you'd sing something else.
I didn't see this coming.
- Was it the same song? - He sang the same song.
He is very motivated.
People seem to like your chanson.
Let's make them more excited. He will show you vocal mimicry.
First,
he will mimic Cho Sang Geon's voice in the movie, "Tazza".
He will show a vocal mimicry.
(Curious)
"Solomon went out in Round One."
"Magic Castle moved on to..."
"Hang on. I didn't need to say that."
- He is good at this. - Right.
It was his ad-lib.
Since he is a singer-songwriter, he is good at changing words.
- He is good at it. - He is amazing.
And Oh Gwang Rok.
It is Oh Gwang Rok.
(Groaning)
"I want to move on to Round Three."
Wow, he is good at changing words.
He is good at it.
- Goodness. - He is very creative.
He must be a good lyricist.
Magic Castle, show us something.
- I will try Oh Gwang Rok. - Oh Gwang Rok?
- Oh Gwang Rok. - He is very competitive.
He is competitive.
(Groaning)
"I want to move on to Round Three."
Why does he keep showing the same thing?
You need to change something.
- It's the same. - He gave it a try, though.
- You did a good job. - He's not creative, though.
(I will just sing.)
That's okay. They are being harsh.
Okay. It was the second match...
of Round Two. I just got the result.
Who will be the winner of this round?
I will announce the winner who will move on to Round Three.
(Magic Castle sang the a song with his soul.)
(He sang a song of Flower with his powerful voice.)
(Andromeda fully immersed himself in his song.)
Who will win this match...
and move on to the next round?
(Palpitating hearts of audience)
It is so thrilling.
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
I have no idea.
Who is the winner?
Who will move on to Round Three?
Magic Castle wins.
(Magic Castle)
This is unbelievable.
(Joy and sorrow)
(They are flabbergasted at the result.)
Magic Castle wins.
He defeated Andromeda with a score of 52 to 47.
It was so close.
It is 52 to 47.
(Congratulations.)
Magic Castle will sing against Roller Coaster.
Please go to the waiting room, and get ready for the next round.
(Striding)
(Yes!)
Although I was very nervous, I'm happy now.
Who is he, then?
He lost by a narrow margin of five votes.
Andromeda will reveal his identity.
Please come this way and get ready.
Is he a kick-boxer?
- Kim Dong Hyun? - It sounds plausible.
I think he is a singer.
(Parboiled octopus?)
He is a singer-songwriter.
- I knew it. - He is a good singer-songwriter.
Unpredictable Andromeda.
- Please take off your mask, - Who is he?
and show your face.
He is...
Who is he?
He's wearing glasses.
Who is he?
He is...
Who is he?
He is a singer who sang "It's Love" with 12 years of experience,
Mose!
(Mose!)
(Jaw-dropping)
(Astonished)
(Screaming)
(He is Mose.)
Mose!
- It turns out Andromeda was Mose. - Mose!
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, I'm Mose. Nice to meet you.
He looks good.
(He made his debut with the song, "It's Love" in 2005.)
(With his emotional and captivating voice,)
(he was loved by a wide range of fans.)
He is very tall.
I didn't know he was that well-built.
- Me, neither. - He looks so good.
It's been a long time.
- I gained weight. - He got a little bigger.
I think that's why you thought he was an athlete.
- Binnie. - Yes.
Do you know Mose?
- I know the song, "It's Love". - I see.
My mother loves the song.
- Her mother loves the song. - Yes.
- Really? - Has it been that long?
I heard the song with my mother.
Okay. People didn't get to see you often.
People who like your voice must have...
- missed you a lot. - I suppose.
I wonder how you've been.
I released a new album almost every year.
But I didn't appear in TV programmes.
I started appearing on TV two years ago.
But I didn't appear on TV that much.
These days, I also help other singers as a producer.
I'm just working hard as a singer.
I heard you want to say...
- something to your fans. - Yes.
It's not that I gave up singing or anything.
But frankly speaking, it's true that I'm losing...
many chances to sing on stage.
So I can't help thinking that every stage is my last chance to sing.
Some people would miss me as they have good memories about me.
I want to give my fans good performances until the end.
It's like a trip before a farewell.
Today's performance was for my fans.
(He is overwhelmed with emotions.)
(The audience gives Mose a warm applause.)
Mose, don't say it's a trip before a farewell.
I tried hard not to cry.
I want to thank my fans,
and I will continue to give them good performances.
All right.
Mose must have felt sorry for his fans.
He has a voice everyone has missed. It will improve even more with time.
Please give Mose a round of applause.
- Thank you. - Thank you for your hard work.
Good luck, Mose!
Mose!
(Good luck, Mose.)
(He exits the stage in tears.)
Every singer craves for attention.
It gives us the energy to do well on stage.
I hope my performances on King of Mask Singer...
is the small seed of hope for me to start anew.
Do You Believe in Magic Castle beat Mose...
and moved on to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Two masked singers have move on to Final Round...
to stop King of Mask Singer from winning seven consecutive times.
I will invite the two masked singers to the stage.
(Two talented masked singers have moved on to Final Round.)
(The winner of this round will challenge King of Mask Singer.)
(They are both determined to win.)
(Will they stop King of Mask Singer from winning again?)
This is the Final Round. The winner of this match...
will be King of Mask Singer's rival.
Roller Coaster, how do you feel?
(Sighing)
- Is he a foreigner? - You are right.
He never speaks.
I never imagined myself to make it this far.
(He has opened his mouth.)
This has been...
an amazing opportunity.
I am very thankful to receive...
such favourable outcome.
Your kind words...
will warm my heart when I return home today. Thank you.
All right.
(My goodness.)
(Who is he?)
- Why are you so surprised? - He speaks very well.
You have underestimated him.
(Satisfied)
Magic Castle, how does it feel to make it to Final Round?
I will do my best...
for those who have given me love and support.
Magic Castle, what would you say...
is your final goal?
(Scratching his head)
I haven't thought of that.
What is your final goal?
- Well... - In my opinion,
- he is a very nice man. - It seems that way.
- He finds it hard... - It's okay to dream big.
to voice his ambition.
Be confident.
- Say what you want. - Your goal is to become the king.
What is your goal? Be confident and voice your thought.
(He turns his head.)
- Is your goal over there? - Say it's King of Mask Singer.
Is it the throne?
Say it's King of Mask Singer.
- It's King of Mask Singer! - There you go.
He mustered up the courage.
Roller Coaster, what is your final goal?
Round after round,
I sang to overcome myself,
not to beat an opponent.
He wants to be King of Mask Singer.
- His words were beautiful. - Thank you.
Music Commander, I want to know...
what your thoughts on these two masked singers are.
Both of them lack confidence.
- I see. - Like I said before,
anyone who wears a mask is in a fight to overcome oneself.
- Such is the nature of a mask. - I see.
Both of them are talented enough to become King of Mask Singer,
so I hope they will win against themselves.
Good luck!
(Satisfied)
His words lacked sincerity.
I thought he was rapping for a second.
Did you memorise what to say?
His words lacked soul.
I spoke fast so that I wouldn't be edited out.
The production team will edit out the entire speech.
All right. With King of Mask Singer watching,
Final Round will commence.
Express Train Roller Coaster will perform first.
(You can do this, Express Train Roller Coaster!)
I am so excited.
(Even the panellists are excited and nervous.)
Roller Coaster will perform first.
My goodness, my heart is beating fast.
(Roller Coaster has made it to Final Round with amazing talents.)
(Everyone is watching to see if he can challenge Music Commander.)
(What will his performance be like?)
("For Your Soul" by Jo Sung Mo)
(He sings a sad ballad song.)
(My goodness.)
(His sorrowful voice makes the listeners clutch their hearts.)
(This song is so sad.)
(He pours out his emotions.)
(Everyone is in awe.)
He is incredible.
(Wonder fills the set.)
(The audience is absorbed in his sorrowful voice.)
(Awestruck)
(He pours out the last of his emotions.)
(Tears well up in their eyes...)
(and they feel heartbroken.)
(Roller Coaster sang "For Your Soul" beautifully.)
(The audience continues to applaud him.)
(His performance was touching.)
How does he sing like that?
He is a great singer.
(The panellists are exhausted from focusing on the performance.)
He is incredible.
Where is he from?
His breath didn't falter once.
Opposing him...
is the masked singer who beat Shoo of S.E.S. and Mose.
He aims to leave his castle and sit on the throne.
Do You Believe in Magic Castle!
(Do You Believe in Magic Castle)
(He walks confidently towards the throne.)
(All eyes are upon him.)
- Will he surprise us, too? - What song will he sing?
(She is more nervous than the singer.)
(This good man has magical powers.)
(Could Magic Castle...)
(outplay Roller Coaster's impassioned singing?)
("People Are More Beautiful than Flowers" by An Chi Hwan)
(This is an exciting song.)
(Yes!)
(His voice's turned into a powerful one.)
What? Is he Ken?
(He is not the talkative, shy guy any more.)
(I'm excited.)
(He has transformed into a strong, charismatic man.)
(My love, it's you and it's us.)
(Our true love!)
(As if enchanted by magic,)
(everybody is sucked into the song.)
(Here we go.)
(His strong and deep voice rides the beat.)
(His strong voice...)
(can help you overcome all kinds of loneliness.)
(My love!)
(It's you and it's us!)
(Our true love!)
(His straight and clear voice tone...)
(breathes warmth into our hearts.)
(A powerful version of "People Are More Beautiful than Flowers")
(Impressed)
Gosh, he is good.
It was good. He did well.
He is a real singer. He's real.
My goodness, he's a great singer.
Round Three, the Final Round has just finished.
It's time for you to make a decision.
Press number one for Express Train Roller Coaster.
And press number two for Do You Believe in Magic Castle.
Which one of them will be able to go to Final Match...
and fight against Music Commander?
Who will be the last one to survive?
Is the winner going to be Roller Coaster,
or Do You Believe in Magic Castle?
All votes are in.
How do you feel, Music Commander in My Town?
I think I'm faced with the biggest hurdle today.
Oh, I see.
I'm getting extremely nervous.
I think I should pull myself together.
Music Commander who is aiming for his seventh consecutive win...
said he's faced with the biggest hurdle today.
All right. It's time for his stage.
Please go backstage and get ready for your performance.
Please give him a big hand.
(Determined)
Go Music Commander!
All right. Music Commander will go prepare for his stage...
to achieve his seventh win and set a new record.
By the way, who will be able to challenge Music Commander?
It's hard to decide which one is better.
Hyun Chul.
Hyun Chul, go ahead.
What did you think about Round Three?
I think their performances were...
- in stark contrast. - Go on.
First, the choice of song by Magic Castle...
was really fantastic.
It's a rock song based on folk.
The song requires you to sing powerfully...
from the beginning to the end.
- It was great for him... - Go on.
- to have chosen the song. - I see.
That's what I think.
As for Roller Coaster, until the previous round,
we only judged him by his sense of humour and wit.
We mostly saw his comical side.
But this time, he completely confounded our expectations.
I almost believed that he is Jo Sung Mo...
at the beginning of the song, because he imitated...
Sung Mo's nasal sound perfectly.
(It's as if Jo Sung Mo was there behind the mask.)
He also understands how a song should be unfolded.
What's important is...
that he knows how to build up...
towards the climax.
In other words, he doesn't overdo it.
He never gets excessive...
and controls himself not to overdo it. He surprised me.
I really enjoyed both of the performances.
No matter which one of them the audience chooses,
it's only a matter of taste.
Young Seok, how about you?
As for Magic Castle,
in Round One and Two, he was quite sweet and soft.
But this time, he was strong and powerful.
He greatly expressed the dynamics of this song.
He did a really good job.
This was the best performance of his.
All right.
Regarding Roller Coaster,
where in the world could these deep emotions come from?
(Where did the emotions come from?)
He seemed to be restraining himself,
but actually, he threw himself into the music.
And that was delivered straight to the listeners.
So we get the feeling that...
the song is palpable and alive.
So far, most contenders who fought against the King of Mask Singer...
- presented the sensibility of R&B. - Yes.
Meanwhile, his song was not an R&B,
but a conventional ballad song. Also, it's in a minor key.
Koreans love songs in minor keys.
I think he's a different kind of contender...
to the ones we've seen in other Final Rounds.
He's new to all of us.
- That's what I thought. - I see.
Jang Hyuk, what do you say about Round Three?
Magic Castle...
had been singing in a sweet, soft and tender voice.
But in the third round, he changed it into a manly one.
He showed us how strongly he can shout...
and how powerfully he can sing.
He showed us his shouting skills confidently.
All the while I listened to him,
I was so excited that I clapped hands to the music.
I bounced, too. I really enjoyed his performance.
All right.
As for Roller Coaster,
I was amazed by how his breathing...
never shook not even a moment until the song ended.
It seemed he fully empathised with...
what the lyrics want to say.
And he successfully expressed what he understood.
His skills of emotional expression...
must be sent from above.
He is destined to do music.
I got that impression.
(I order Roller Coaster...)
(to sing in a beautiful voice.)
(The highest praise possible)
Jang Hyuk gave him the highest of praise.
- In my opinion, - Go ahead.
his "For Your Soul" was really moving.
So I imagined a story.
I imagined that...
he once fell in love with...
- a woman over 2m. - That's your scenario.
- He loved a super tall woman. - Yes, she's over 2m.
And all her family members are tall, too.
Her brother and everybody else are tall.
Because of the difference in height,
their love couldn't go on.
That's why he could express the depth of sadness in his song.
- I was deeply moved. - I see.
- As for Magic Castle, - Magic Castle.
I could sense that...
- he is a nice guy. - I see.
- If he had taken off his mask... - Yes.
and sang to us while making eye contact with everyone,
I think he would have touched...
- more people's hearts. - I see.
I think he has innocent eyes.
You mean innocent, warm eyes?
Yes. He seems to be a very good-hearted person.
People like him should do politics later on.
(Let's send Magic Castle to the National Assembly.)
All right.
Now, we will announce...
the result of the Final Round.
I see the results have come out like this.
I think the result will surprise everyone.
We will now announce...
the final winner, between these two masked singers,
who will move on to compete in the Final Match.
(Who will be the final challenger?)
(Roller Coaster's voice...)
(explicitly expresses raw sentiments of love.)
(Magic Castle has...)
(a magical voice that can charm everyone.)
The winner of this round...
who will go against the current King of Mask Singer is...
(Heart pounding)
Let's go!
(I'm so nervous.)
(Who is the winner of...)
(this close, thrilling match?)
Let's see.
The candidate for the 28th King of Mask Singer...
who will compete against Music Commander is...
(Express Train Roller Coaster wins.)
Roller Coaster wins.
(Roller Coaster's powerful performance will continue.)
(Mixture of feelings hit the panellists.)
(Groaning)
Roller Coaster!
Roller Coaster wins.
Roller Coaster beat Magic Castle...
by a score of 70 to 29.
Roller Coaster beat Magic Castle by a score of 70 to 29.
Roller Coaster moves on to the Final Match.
Hey. Excuse me!
He's the one to go. You have to stay here.
Come back here.
- You don't have to be embarrassed. - He's so innocent.
He is such an innocent guy.
- All right. - Look at that.
- Look at him. - Let's applaud them.
(Magic Castle, you did great, too.)
Roller Coaster, who earned...
more and more votes every round,
has been chosen to go against Music Commander.
Please go to the backstage,
and watch Music Commander perform.
Please congratulate him with a big round of applause.
Roller Coaster moves on to the Final match.
(He is still feeling nervous.)
I am exhausted,
because I was so nervous back there.
Thank you.
I won.
(How exciting.)
Now,
we have to find out who Magic Castle is.
Do you have anything to say before you take off your mask?
I'm a bit worried because I didn't get the chance to fix my hair.
He's a young man who cares a lot about his looks.
Let's just go with what you got.
- I'm worried. - All right.
Please come to the back of the stage.
(Magic Castle will reveal himself in a moment.)
He sounds like Lee Se Joon.
- Lee Se Joon from Yurisangja? - Yes.
A member of EXO.
EXO?
- D.O. - D.O.?
He's a boring person.
- He should sing only. - I see.
Please remove your mask,
and show us who you are.
(Who are you, Magic Castle?)
This is...
(Screaming)
Why?
- What is going on? - Who is it? Who is he?
(Who is Magic Castle?)
This is...
Yesung, the lead vocalist of Super Junior.
Hello, I'm Yesung. Nice to see you all.
(Oh, my gosh.)
Yes, it's Yesung.
I was going to...
mention him earlier.
(Nobody expected to see him.)
(They have frozen from the shock.)
It's Yesung. Oh, my gosh.
I thought you'd all recognise his voice.
I was going to mention him earlier.
No one talked about Yesung until the very end.
Please say hello to our viewers.
Hello, I'm Yesung of Super Junior. Nice to meet you.
(Super Junior had their debut with "Twins" in 2005.)
(As the lead vocalist of Super Junior,)
(Yesung stole the hearts of many girl fans.)
(In 2014, he enlisted in the army.)
(When he came back in 2015, he appeared in the drama, "Awl".)
(He showed off his acting skills,)
(and he had his musical comeback with the album, "Open The Door".)
Gu Ra has mentioned your name...
many times in King of Mask Singer...
- in the past. - I really have.
But he doesn't recognise you when you're actually here.
- I didn't know he was so talkative. - I see.
He is the fourth to appear...
on this show among Super Junior members,
following Kyu Hyun, Ryeo Wook and Kang In.
Today is the first time I performed on stage alone.
I was happy that I could sing again on a show like this.
After a few years of not performing on stage,
I had lost my confidence.
- Kyu Hyun is a good singer, - Right.
and so is Ryeo Wook.
But those guys would always tell me...
that Yesung was like an insurmountable mountain,
so they would always work hard to be more like him.
I always heard them say so.
He's always been a good singer.
- Thank you. - I see.
Then, shouldn't you have guessed who he was?
I couldn't because I was blinded by his beautiful voice.
All right.
But Gu Ra did get one thing right.
I mean,
when I look into Yesung's eyes,
- they are shiny and warm. - I told you so.
- His eyes are like those of a deer. - That's right.
Gu Ra was right about that.
I think Yesung proved to us today...
that he is indeed the main vocalist of Super Junior.
I was the first one to begin a career as a singer,
but it took me 11 years to finally release my first solo album.
(Congratulations.)
- After 11 years. - Yes.
(Sighing)
I'm sorry.
He is getting a bit emotional.
I've always wanted to sing,
but I wasn't given too many opportunities to do so.
All this time, I tried my best when singing,
and I made really nice songs this time.
I made many songs...
with hopes to interact with you all,
so I hope you enjoy them.
All right.
Thank you everyone.
Okay.
His first solo album will be released in 11 years.
He must have had mixed feelings while preparing for it.
You said before you came out here...
that you want to regain the confidence you lost over the years.
Do you think you succeeded?
I was really nervous on stage,
so I was a little disappointed...
that I couldn't show the best of me.
But it was meaningful to me that I could sing in front of you all.
I did regain a lot of my confidence.
More than becoming the winner of this show,
I wanted to enjoy myself and let all of you enjoy my performance.
Today, we had the chance to meet...
Yesung as a proud solo singer...
rather than as a member of Super Junior.
Please give him another round of applause.
Thank you.
All right.
(We support your dream to be a soloist, Yesung.)
When I first had my debut as a Super Junior member,
I wasn't one of the famous, popular members.
Although I was happy that the team was going strong,
I always wondered why I had to sing at the back.
I had many thoughts ringing in my head.
I kept forgetting the lyrics,
and I felt myself losing my confidence,
so I was very disappointed in myself for a while.
But I wanted to sing once more in front of you,
so I mustered up the courage to come out here.
I want to continue to make music...
that will help me interact with my audience constantly.
After the Final Round,
Roller Coaster beat Yesung...
and moves on to the Final Match.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
We only have one performance left,
which is the one of Music Commander to defend his throne.
What song will he sing today...
to take his seventh consecutive win?
We will now watch...
the king's performance for the 28th Final Match.
(It begins now.)
The 28th Final Match.
The 27th King of Mask Singer...
who became a legend after taking his sixth victory,
Music Commander In My Town.
(Music Commander In My Town)
(We can feel his determination from his gait.)
(Music Commander comes onto the stage.)
(We were waiting for you.)
- Wow, Music Commander. - He is so cool.
- Hey, Commander. - All right.
- He's charismatic, right? - Yes.
You can feel his charisma when you actually see him.
You end up forgetting all other performances.
(Hello.)
His mask is so cute, though.
He looks cool but cute.
What song is he singing today?
I wonder what song he is going to sing.
It's time.
(They are more nervous than ever.)
(Their hearts are pounding already.)
(What song is he singing today?)
Why am I so nervous?
("An Invitation to Daily LIfe" by Shin Hae Chul)
(Music Commander's proposal begins in a low voice.)
(He expresses his heart, talking about his daily life indifferently.)
(Wow!)
(His confession gets imprinted on people's minds.)
(His pure and clear voice touches people's hearts.)
(It is a song for a woman whom he wants to share his life with.)
(It is a man's sincere proposal.)
(It is his confession of love, "An Invitation to Daily Life".)
(They have no choice but accept the sweet proposal.)
(They are speechless.)
It's amazing.
Oh my gosh.
(They keep applauding without saying anything.)
I can see that why he is the King of Mask Singer.
He is so good. Isn't he?
I couldn't even breathe.
Final Match is finally over.
It is time to make a decision.
Who do you want as the King of Mask Singer?
Whose voice do you want to hear again?
Please press your button for the masked singer.
Will Music Commander keep his throne?
Or would we have a new King of Mask Singer?
All votes are in.
You may say hello to each other now.
(Making bows)
Music Commander...
(You are the best.)
and Roller Coaster.
(You are better.)
It was the Final Match.
Young Seok.
When Roller Coaster sang earlier,
he sounded very sorrowful.
My heart warmed up listening to the song.
It is hard to make people feel that way with a song.
I thought he was good enough to threaten Music Commander.
His performance soothed my heart.
Meanwhile, Music Commander...
went for the jugular with his singing.
Did he go for the jugular?
It felt like he was attacking my vital point.
A vital point of a man?
(A vital point of a man?)
Why would you say that?
(Giggling)
(From the introduction,)
(Tingling)
(The pain builds up slowly.)
(It's coming!)
(Don't come!)
(Oh, my goodness!)
(He is a tyrant!)
- It is a vital point of emotions. - A vital point of emotions?
- Yes, a vital point of emotions. - It made a surprise attack.
Yes. Of course I like...
Music Commander's high-pitched voice,
but I like his low-pitched voice better.
I could appreciate his low-pitched voice the whole time. I loved it.
I can't assess...
the two singers' performances.
It is just a matter of choice.
- Both of them were great. - I see.
Yoon Ha, how did you like their performances?
(It was her first time to watch the Final Match.)
What is this place?
It is so overwhelming.
- This is... - Are you tired?
I feel stiff in the shoulders.
- Okay. - And I'm getting migraines.
(She went wild watching the performances.)
(Her whole body seems to ache.)
(Watch out for your jaw joint.)
(It's been a long day for her.)
As I watched Roller Coaster's performance,
I thought he'd be the new King of Mask Singer.
But as I watched Music Commander's performance,
I realised why he has been the King of Mask Singer.
I was overwhelmed.
It was the best. It felt like I was invited to a special episode.
Okay. You were overwhelmed.
I'm exhausted.
Yoon Seok, I saw you singing along Music Commander's song.
I get upset once Music Commander finishes his song.
Why is that?
I want him to sing a little bit longer. Why does it finish so fast?
I get upset when his song ends.
There is a saying, "Life is short, art is long."
I could feel what it means listening to his song.
Even though he lived a short life,
his song will last long through Music Commander.
It was grateful and impressive.
Jang Hyuk, you were writing down something.
How did you like the Final Match to choose the 28th King?
Roller Coaster was like an outfighter today.
Outfighter? Do you mean it was like a hit-and-run attack?
Yes. He is an outfighter.
(With good physical strength and great skills,)
(and like an outfighter who plays with his opponent,)
(Roller Coaster played with music.)
(Wow!)
Meanwhile, Music Commander has been...
an offence-oriented infighter.
- He is aggressive. - Yes.
(He is a man of perseverance.)
(It's like a battle against himself.)
(He is an infighter who even feels noble at times.)
(I give up!)
He showed a great performance today as always.
From low notes,
he sang with a soulful voice.
He also hit high notes beautifully.
I think Music Commander is the only singer in Korea...
with such wide vocal range who can sing...
both extremely high and low notes.
All right.
He is Vocal Range Commander. It's another nickname...
- that suits him well. - Vocal Range Commander.
- He has a wide vocal range. - Born with a great nasal cavity,
he uses his voice to the best of his ability.
I envy his strength and energy...
every time I hear him sing. He always inspires me.
- All right. - I enjoyed your performance.
All right. Go Eun, what did you think?
Either my lungs or my stomach...
hurts really badly.
Upon inspection,
I realised that I held my breath...
throughout Music Commander's performance.
It's different to listen to him sing in the studio.
Gosh, it was an overwhelming experience.
Young Seok kept saying,
"It's different from watching the performance on TV."
I now understand what he meant. As for Roller Coaster,
he makes me want to continue listening to his song.
That's his charm.
I am excited for their future endeavours. They are amazing.
- I give them thumbs up. - All right.
I have been a panellist for a long time,
but never have I dreaded the upcoming result.
- I don't want to see who won. - Go home, then.
(Go home, then.)
- I will get going, then. - Don't do that.
- Text me the result. - I won't see you to the door.
- We must accept the outcome. - That's right.
Only one of them can be the winner.
Which of them...
did the audience choose as the 28th King of Mask Singer?
The result is in.
It seems like many people...
had difficulty deciding on the winner.
It's a very tight match.

With a final score of 53 to 46,
he succeeded in winning seven times in a row.
He has stayed on the throne for 14 weeks.
Music Commander is an amazing man.
Music Commander is the 28th King of Mask Singer.
(After bowing to the audience,)
(he shakes hands with Roller Coaster.)
All right. Both masked singers...
gave us an amazing match.
Golden Mask and Gown go back to Music Commander.
(He wears the mask.)
Let's hear a few words from Music Commander...
on setting a new record with seven consecutive wins.
Well...
(King of Mask Singer has difficulty finding words.)
(He is crying.)
(Don't cry, Music Commander.)
(The audience's love has touched him.)
I don't think...
I did a good job today.
I only became King of Mask Singer again...
thanks to the audience's love and support.
I am truly lucky to be King of Mask Singer.
(No, you did a great job.)
Since I am given another opportunity,
I will return with a good performance...
everyone can enjoy.
Thank you with all my heart.
(Thank you with all my heart.)
All right. Music Commander...
gave us a humble speech.
To keep his identity hidden, he will exit after the march.
Please congratulate him with a big round of applause.
(March of the 28th King of Mask Singer)
The 28th King of Mask Singer,
Music Commander will take the throne...
once more.
He will aim to win eight times in a row next.
(Roller Coaster's identity will be revealed soon.)
Now comes the surprise.
With superb singing technique and surprising dancing skills,
he gave us splendid performances.
Who could Roller Coaster be?
Roller Coaster,
please take off your mask and reveal your identity.
(Who could Roller Coaster be?)
I think he is a solo artist.
I know a talented singer who is short like him.
There is a member of ULALA SESSION...
- It's Myung Hoon. - Myung Hoon.
He could also be...
Seo Eun Kwang of BTOB.
- Is he a foreigner? - You are right.
He never speaks.
(Who could be this man of few words?)
All right.
Reveal your identity.
(His identity will be revealed now.)
(My goodness.)
(The audience is excited.)
(They greet him with enthusiasm.)
- What is it? - Who is he?
He is...
(Wait a minute.)
He is...
(He is...)
Kim Myung Hoon of ULALA SESSION.
(It's Kim Myung Hoon!)
He is a member of ULALA SESSION.
I knew it!
(No one knew he was such a talented singer.)
My guess was right.
- I am finally on the show. - My guess was right.
It's Kim Myung Hoon.
(Roller Coaster was Kim Myung Hoon of ULALA SESSION.)
- He was Roller Coaster. - You said it wasn't him.
(ULALA SESSION entered the music industry like a comet.)
(Their performances beyond imagination...)
(and amazing singing skills shocked everyone.)
It's ULALA SESSION.
(They debuted after winning an audition programme.)
ULALA SESSION won.
(The leader of the group, Lim Yoon Taek suffered from cancer.)
(After two years, he passed away leaving the members behind.)
(A few months later,)
(ULALA SESSION got back on their feet.)
(There is a mother figure of ULALA SESSION,)
(the vocalist Kim Myung Hoon.)
Whenever there was a short masked singer with a small build,
your name would be mentioned.
You look taller today.
I tried my best to keep my identity hidden.
- These shoes make me 10cm taller. - They are high heels.
Yes, my feet hurt.
Look at these shoes.
Gu Ra noticed the difference in height.
My goodness, these could be women's shoes.
The difference in height is not what surprised everyone.
There is a reason why no one was certain...
that he is a member ULALA SESSION.
- No one knew he could sing so well. - Seriously.
- No one knew it. - We knew that he could sing well,
- but he exceeded our expectations. - That's right.
- He was incredibly good. - Exactly.
- You are an amazing singer. - You are right.
I am thankful that many people...
know ULALA SESSION...
for our performances.
Before the show, I had never performed...
on the stage by myself.
I wanted people to know...
who Kim Myung Hoon is...
and to let them hear my voice.
That's why I decided to perform on King of Mask Singer.
Many people gave you high praises.
Please take this moment to say whatever you want to say.
Well...
Actually,
unlike what you expect, our team and members...
don't lead a glamorous life.
I've been married for five years,
but I still don't have a house for my family.
I couldn't prepare a room for my baby, either.
So I want to work harder this year,
make a lot of money...
and let many people know my voice.
My wish for 2016 and 2017 is...
to buy a sweet home for my family.
All right.
(This is his wish as the leader of a household and a husband.)
Let's cheer...
- for Myung Hoon's bright future. - Let him sit on the King's lap.
Well, I think we could easily let him sit on his lap.
Of course, let's do it.
Today,
Kim Myung Hoon absolutely proved his true worth.
- It was a meaningful time. - He's so cool.
Please give him another round of applause.
Thank you.
(We'll look forward to your great performances.)
(He looks shy.)
Thank you.
I feel happy.
(What's the reason you tried this solo performance?)
Before Yoon Taek...
got too sick, he told me this.
He said...
he wanted more people to have the chance...
to listen to my voice, which he loved.
He said he was sorry he couldn't do that for me.
He said that.
Thankfully,
a lot of people took interest in my voice today.
So I think I could take another step towards my dream.
If I get good results...
for a music chart or music shows...
and get a chance to say my thanks,
I will thank King of Mask Singer.
Thank you, once again.
