Truthful voices behind masks...
fight against bias.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Last week,
he won three consecutive victories with an amazing performance.
He's a protean singer of various charms.
He's I'm Excited Hurray Radio, the 38th King of Mask Singer.
(I'm Excited Hurray Radio)
(Did you have nice Chuseok?)
(Spend the last day of Chuseok with us.)
It's autumn, the season of love and romance.
Our rich and mature music...
will satisfy your sensibility.
I am your unbiased show host, Kim Seong Ju. Nice to meet you.
(Your unbiased show host, Kim Seong Ju.)
(Heo Young Ji)
(Cha Eun Woo)
(Kim Hyun Chul)
Challenging fourth victory in a row...
is I'm Excited Hurray Radio, the King of Mask Singer.
Would you politely say hello to the viewers?
Wait a minute.
(Tuning in for love, hope and wish)
He's setting frequency.
Performing on this show...
never gets comfortable.
But as time goes by, I'm getting over the pressure...
I bear about performances little by little.
(Laughing)
(Wait a minute.)
Let us give it a try
Let us share our love
Hello, my name is I'm Excited Hurray Radio.
He's always very happy.
Many viewers love Hurray Radio.
In today's 39th Final Match,
can we expect your victory?
I'm trying this kind of song for the first time as it's autumn,
so I'm nervous as well.
But I'll do my best to make the stage feel like autumn.
You're trying a new performance on today's stage.
- That's right. - It can go wrong.
Are you okay with that?
- That's why I'm nervous. - Why don't you do as you always do?
What?
You'd better do what you always do.
Are you up for a new challenge?
No, no.
- No. - No?
- Is it time for him to change? - Of course.
You should never be afraid of challenges.
Once you stop rolling, you will start to gather moss.
Seong Ju represents such people.
(Seong Ju represents such people.)
What's wrong with me?
- I'm innocent. - Don't follow the same pattern.
Your pattern of hosting shows,
whether it's a cooking show or a music show...
is more or less the same.
It won't be easy to change, but he has to.
- Does he have to change? - Of course.
Do you think he has reached crisis?
Yes. But once he passes this crisis,
he'll be the king for a long time.
Did you listen to Gu Ra?
Yes. To leave no regret when I fail,
I'll do my best to put up the show.
- You are very determined. - I like the attitude.
- Okay. - I like him.
- Right. - Wow.
Let's look forward to Hurray Radio's performance...
as our present king.
I've got a list of...
eight new masked singers.
All of them are so talented...
and they are all here for today's show.
- They are all talented. - You say that all the time.
You really have to stop it.
How can all the singers be so talented every week?
- Cliches that you use... - Didn't you like it?
devalue your talent.
- Okay. - Do you understand?
Let me amend my comment.
Well,
the singers are the same as last week's singers.
They are amazing.
All the masked singers on our show are superb.
It's not a cliche.
I really mean it.
Let's start the first match...
of Round One's duet song match.
(Let's start the first match.)
(King of Mask Singer)
It's the first match of Round One.
His world-class voice will enchant the whole world.
I'm the Star Lobster.
(I'm the Star Lobster)
(The pincers are his most attractive feature.)
I'll show you everything I've got.
(Lobster is the most famous man in the ocean.)
(Lobster, you are cool.)
(Giggling)
Look at his pincers.
(Everyone loves his pincers.)
- Are those pincers? - His body looks like a lobster's.
Opposing him...
is a woman with a beautiful voice that casts light in the deep sea.
Noryangjin Mermaid!
(Noryangjin Mermaid)
(She travels happily with her fish.)
As a mermaid,
I promise to give you a refreshing performance.
(I am from the sea, too.)
(Welcome to the land.)
She is holding fish. She is Noryangjin Mermaid.
I bet she has years of experience.
It's a match between seafood.
(She gives away her precious friend.)
My goodness.
(He takes off his pincers.)
(How do their costumes look?)
(They are perfectly in characters.)
Both of them look cool.
I have a feeling the performances will be great from Round One.
(Their entrances were already extraordinary.)
(The two masked singers caught everyone's attention.)
(It's a match between a popular man and a princess of the sea.)
(What kind of performance have they prepared?)
("Caution" by Tashannie)
- This is nice. - It's a song by Tashannie.
("Caution" by Tashannie)
(Powerful)
(Cheerful rap wakes up the listeners.)
(Wow)
(He has a husky voice and a sophisticated singing style.)
(His charming voice would have made many women cry.)
(My goodness)
(Girl crush)
(She captivated the audience from the first line.)
(Her powerful rap crashes over the audience like waves.)
(Wow)
(He commands the stage in a natural way.)
(Mermaid's voice is refreshing and husky.)
(My goodness)
(This is the best.)
Jang Hyuk, she is a rapper, right?
(I think she is.)
(As if she is performing her own song,)
(Mermaid sings and raps with ease.)
(I think she is Yoon Mi Rae.)
(Shh! I think you are right.)
(She is talented.)
(Wow)
(Sweetness flows on the stage.)
(His husky voice makes women's hearts beat faster.)
(Play with us.)
(Lobster and Mermaid gave...)
(a hot and refreshing performance of "Caution".)
(What a refreshing performance!)
They did an amazing job.
(Wow)
That was great.
Seafood did great.
(Hyun Chul remains standing.)
Hyun Chul, please sit down. You are blocking my view.
I was standing because it's hot in here.
Doesn't listening to music make you hot?
He probably had no idea how hot it gets in here.
The first match...
of Round One came to an end.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Lobster, you can go first.
Hello.
I'm the Star Lobster.
His loud voice tells me...
that he is a young man.
It's Mermaid's turn to say hello.
Hello,
I am Noryangjin Fish Market.
It's not Noryangjin Fish Market.
- It's Noryangjin Mermaid. - I am Noryangjin Mermaid.
All right.
She is Noryangjin Mermaid.
We have a number of new faces today.
- Ho Ran. Welcome. - Hello.
(Ho Ran had visited the show as Book Girl.)
She had visited the show as a masked singer.
Their performance reminded me...
of a fight between...
- experienced boxers. - It reminded you of a boxing match.
Yes. They chose an energetic song.
When the song is energetic,
it is absolutely necessary for singers to command the stage.
If not, singers get lost in the song.
It felt as if they proclaimed control over the song...
as soon as it started.
There was an incredible amount of energy.
I compared the performance as a boxing match.
Lobster is an out-boxer...
and Mermaid is an in-fighter.
That's what I saw.
As soon as the song started,
Lobster used big hand gestures...
and stepped forward.
He used grand techniques...
to win over the audience.
(Lobster is an out-boxer.)
Mermaid balanced herself...
and rarely moved.
However, the moment she sang in earnest,
the power in her voice...
captivated the audience.
(Her voice was like a powerful punch.)
Their harmony in the grand performance...
- impressed me very much. - They were like...
an out-boxer and an in-fighter.
Hyun Chul, don't you have anything to add?
- I do have something to add. - You do?
We would like to hear a conductor's opinion.
(Since he transformed into a conductor,)
(the panellists are excited to hear his opinion.)
I did not judge them on musicality.
- What did you judge them on? - What?
I decided to leave...
the matter of musicality to singers.
I made that decision...
and took note of something else.
- Both of them rapped. - That's right.
The most important elements of rap are...
rhythm and delivery.
- Delivery. - So I focused on pronunciation.
- You focused on pronunciation. - Yes.
It's important for rappers to have clear pronunciation.
People picked on his pronunciation all his life.
My goodness.
- That's why he is obsessed. - It's important for rappers.
I know because I have tried rapping before.
Shake it, funky music
(He is making no sense.)
I delivered the lyrics with clarity.
- What was that? - I rapped.
Go on.
- Delivery is the key. - Go on.
- You cannot mumble the words. - Delivery is the key for rapping.
Shake it, funky music
(For goodness' sake.)
- I know how to do this. - What are the lyrics?
I don't know because they are in English.
Correct pronunciation is important.
What's amazing is that Ho Ran and I had the same lunch.
- The same lunch? - I meant to say the same thought.
- Did you not eat lunch today? - My goodness.
He will talk until the morning comes if you nitpick his words.
- Let it go. - Okay.
They sang well...
and had great pronunciation.
Okay. Let's hear from Hyun Chul,
- the singer this time. - They did an amazing job.
They managed to give us a fun performance in Round One,
I could tell that Lobster's will...
to win in this round...
is quite strong.
While he knows Mermaid is talented,
he is determined to win.
He has a strong desire to win.
It must be why...
he sang a bit faster than the beat...
well into the second verse.
(Being nervous made him sing a bit faster than the beat.)
(You are doing great. Slow down.)
- He was pressured. - That's right.
Mermaid went her own way.
I think she planned out...
her performance.
I disagree with him. I thought the exact opposite.
I don't think...
- Lobster cares about winning. - You don't think he cares.
No, I don't. I think he wanted...
to stay dedicated to the performance...
and gain good result.
I think he is a singer...
even though he started the performance with rap.
That's why he focused on being dedicated to the performance.
Mermaid was...
trying to hide herself.
But she showed her true self when she felt like she was losing.
Then she hid herself again. It went that way the whole time.
I think she will move on to Final Match today.
You are saying she will make it...
- to Round Three today. - That's what I'm saying.
I think she will move on to Final Match today.
(Letting out a sigh)
- Okay. - I agree with Jang Hyuk.
- Do you? - As you might expect,
Noryangjin Mermaid is a great singer.
Metaphorically speaking, she's like a vendor with decades of experience.
- Really? - Yes.
She's like a vendor at Noryangjin market with 20 years of experience.
I'm sure she has earned fame in the music industry.
I think she is the nucleus of today's guest singers.
- Is she? - Yes.
Then, there is Lobster.
He looked very nervous on the stage.
I don't think he is a singer.
- I guess he is an actor. - An actor?
Yes. He'd play the villain roles...
in daytime soap operas.
- He'd play the villain roles. - Yes.
That's what he does.
(Like this!)
(Gu Ra is talking about actors like this.)
He is seeking to change his image.
I see. By the way, we have a new guest...
who sang with her beautiful nasal voice on the stage.
She is Yoon Hae Young.
- Hello. - Welcome to our programme.
(She appeared in King of Mask Singer as Pumpkin Carriage.)
Is there anyone who looks like an actor or actress?
I think Lobster is a star actor.
She's saying that Lobster could be the actor here.
- It feels that way. - She agrees with Gu Ra's opinion.
They both have attractive husky voices.
In the stage, they sounded experienced like the deep sea.
Hae Young just mentioned the deep sea...
to describe the depth of their experience.
Now it's time to enjoy their speciality which is dancing.
This is exciting.
Lobster will show Lobster Dance.
- Lobster Dance? - Lobster Dance.
Music, please.
It's Lobster Dance.
(He starts with light moves.)
He sprang up.
That's right. He's dancing with his pincers.
That's good.
(What should I do? The pincers.)
He's dancing with his claws.
(It seems improvised just now.)
(He shows off his dance skills.)
That was a good one.
(He finishes with the scorpion move.)
That was good.
(How did he do that?)
- That was tricky. - He's got some dance skills.
But it seemed mostly improvised.
- He had some great moves, though. - No.
He danced like Hong Kyung Min in some parts.
- I know that. - He was like this.
He danced like that for about 10 seconds.
- Right. - How lousy.
(The scorpion dance he showed at the beginning and end was great.)
(It is what the boy group Infinite showed in their performance.)
(But this was...)
He's dancing with his claws.
- He looks like an actor. - I agree.
Many panellists are nodding as Gu Ra says he might be an actor.
- I'm sure he's not an idol singer. - She's right.
What about Mermaid?
- Do you want to see her speciality? - Yes.
- Mermaid is... - Look at her costume.
I think she needs to lie down in that costume.
- She's prepared a lot. - Okay.
Mermaid is here on behalf of Noryangjin Market.
So she will show you "Under the Sea" dance.
She will show us seaweed, starfish, dolphin spouting water...
and other various sea creatures.
It must be fun.
She will show you various sea creatures.
Music, please.
(How would she show those sea creatures in that costume?)
- Under the sea! - Is that seaweed?
- Is that seaweed? - I think that's seaweed.
(What about starfish?)
What is that?
She's shaking her body.
It's in the sea.
(It is a funny dance with brilliant ideas.)
She's dancing.
It is a dolphin now.
She's a dolphin spouting water.
(It looks like a scene from an animated film.)
That was funny. Eun Woo, what do you think?
I don't think they are idol singers.
Neither of them?
- No. I think Lobster... - Okay.
is good at dancing because he likes to dance.
He is just as good as any man who loves to dance.
Can you show us the moves?
- Show us. - Show us how to do it.
- Show us the dance moves. - Can you do that?
How would it look like when an idol singer dances the moves?
With some popping dance.
Do it slowly.
(He can do it.)
I knew it.
(Dance of victory)
Lobster looked like he fell down and stood up.
But Eun Woo looked cool when he got up.
- Like slow motion. - I know.
There was definitely a difference.
Do you want to do it again?
- The part where you got up. - We want to see it again.
- I'll let you compare their moves. - It's not an easy move to do.
I thought they were both good.
- It is a tough one. - Look at that.
- He springs up. - Look at that.
See? How is that different?
- It looked the same. - Excuse me.
It's the same.
See? How is that different?
- He's right. - Excuse me.
It looks the same. I told you so.
- He can even change some moves. - Excuse me.
I've changed my mind. He is an idol singer.
- I agree. - I don't think he's an idol singer.
It's not something you can do easily.
Now, I will announce the result of the first match of Round One.
I'll now reveal the first winner of Round One.
Who is the winner of this match?
(The husky voice tone and sophisticated vocalisation)
(Will Lobster with an attractive voice win?)
(The powerful voice that captures girls' hearts)
(Will Mermaid with a soulful voice win?)
Who is the first winner...
who will move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
I'm sure he is an idol singer. He looks so young.
(It is a thrilling moment.)
(Who will take the victory?)
Let's find out who will move on to Round Two.
Who is the winner?
(Noryangjin Mermaid wins.)
Mermaid wins.
(Her voice was beautiful, indeed.)
(Swim free in the sea, Mermaid.)
I knew it.
(She is the best.)
Mermaid is the winner.
The final score is 58 to 41.
With a final score of 58 to 41,
Mermaid moved on to the next round.
Please return to your waiting room...
and get ready for the next round.
Please go this way.
She's polite. Please go this way.
This is the way out.
I knew she was a bit clumsy.
She's taking pigeon steps because of her costume.
Please understand that it will take longer time for her to walk.
I won.
(She brags about her victory.)
I'm happy.
Who is I'm the Star Lobster then?
There was a great diversity of opinion on his identity.
Many different opinions were brought up.
Who is he, then?
We will reveal his identity with a solo performance...
he prepared for Round Two.
Please give him a round of applause.
(He will reveal his identity with a solo performance.)
It seemed like he just wanted to try his best...
on the stage.
- I think Lobster... - Lobster.
is a star actor.
He sprang up.
He's dancing with his claws.
I don't think he is an idol singer.
I've changed my mind. He is an idol singer.
- I agree. - I don't think so.
- He's a good dancer. - He's not an idol singer.
("This Night Once Again" by Cho Ha Moon)
(Lobster had chosen a ballad song for the next round.)
(Surprised)
(He sings with a sentimental voice.)
I love his voice.
(He is so good.)
(His voice is a great match for a lonely autumn night.)
(Lobster has a gentle voice.)
(I love it.)
(He successfully preserves the classic feel of this song.)
(Lobster, who are you?)
Now,
Lobster, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(Screaming)
He is...
What is it?
Who is he?
They're so happy to see him.
He's an actor, right?
He is...
CNU, a member of B1A4.
(Oh, my goodness.)
It's CNU.
I was right. He was an idol singer.
I told you he was an idol singer.
I'm the one who got it right.
(Lobster was...)
(CNU from B1A4.)
(He's so cool.)
(It's CNU.)
(CNU starts off with poise.)
(Listeners can feel his sincerity through his dramatic voice.)
(He fills the emotion in the stage all by himself.)
(He sings high notes with his powerful, clear voice.)
(He is fully emotional.)
(His sad and deep voice touches everyone's heart.)
(His stage made us fall in love with his charm.)
He's great.
He's so handsome.
He's so cool.
He was great.
He is so emotional.
- You felt it too, right? - Yes.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello. I'm CNU from B1A4.
All right.
(For their bright and energetic characteristic,)
(B1A4 is loved by many people.)
(Among them, CNU is...)
(a great singer and a dancer.)
(He has returned as a romantic man.)
The reason why...
CNU came to our show is...
to make himself better known to his fans.
Actually, I always felt like I owe other members.
I'm a very introverted person.
Other members worked hard to let people know about our group...
and entertained them.
I felt like I was a bit inattentive.
When I debuted,
- I had glasses and long hair. - That's right.
I had that look for a long time, so many people...
remember me as the guy with long hair and glasses.
But they don't really know my name.
I'd like to take this opportunity...
to shake off the guilt...
and to make people remember my name.
That's right. His name is CNU.
He's CNU from B1A4.
A lot of people just sing the melody,
but I can sense that he sings each note...
with all his heart.
I don't get this kind of feeling often,
But I got goosebumps this time. Thank you for a great stage.
When he...
danced with the mask on,
he didn't stand out that much.
Now that he's without the mask,
he'd look great if he dances now.
- Earlier, Eun Woo said... - Yes.
you couldn't be a singer.
I'm sorry, CNU.
Eun Woo said that.
After you took off the mask, he's been feeling uncomfortable.
(Uncomfortable)
Didn't his comment offend you?
- A little. You... - "You..."
He means you, Eun Woo.
I want to say something.
Our group has a similar style to B1A4.
So we monitored their performance many times before we debuted.
I personally liked you the best.
(He's cute.)
- He sounds different from before. - They even look alike.
You know how to kiss up.
Thank you for a wonderful stage.
(They exchange hearts.)
Should I ask him to dance without the mask?
- He will look great. - She's right.
Let's see the dance of an idol singer.
Music, please.
(They're excited to see it.)
Dance like an idol singer.
That's right.
(Fantastic popping dance skills)
He's actually a great dancer.
See? I knew he's good at dancing.
That's right.
(Everything under control)
Here we go.
This is what we're talking about.
It's the mask's fault.
He looks so different.
- He does look different. - I know.
That was great.
Without the mask, he's definitely an idol singer.
(He's right.)
Now, what's his name again?
- CNU. - It's CNU.
He has made his true voice and presence known as a singer.
It was CNU of B1A4.
Please give him a big hand.
(We will remember your name, CNU.)
(He comes down from the stage with a smile.)
I don't go on many TV shows,
so many people ask me why.
It was mostly my choice.
I'm not a smooth talker...
or a funny person.
I told my agent that I don't want to be in variety shows,
but today's experience...
has given me confidence and conviction about myself.
My first priority is my fans.
If I get a chance, I'd like to keep performing like this...
for my fans.
I also want to let people hear...
my voice more often.
This is the result of Round One.
Noryangjin Mermaid defeated CNU of B1A4...
and moved on to Round Two.
The second match of Round One.
The hero who will save this world with his powerful voice,
Robin Hood of Justice.
(Robin Hood of Justice)
(Here comes Robin Hood.)
I will aim for your heart.
(Charismatic)
(He looks so cool.)
He seems like a great singer.
He looks very fit.
He looks like Hyun Chul.
Be more clear on whom you're referring to.
(Did someone call me?)
His opponent has...
a pure and clean voice.
Good to See Chipmunk.
(Toddling)
You're going to fall for "Chipmunk".
(She's shy.)
(She's so cute.)
She's cute.
(Her cute look makes your heart pound.)
Gosh, she's adorable.
(What?)
(He looks familiar.)
He looks like Kim Byung Man.
I think he's Yoon Jung Soo.
His body looks like Jung Soo's.
Jung Soo.
(Surprised)
He looked at you.
(Have they found out who he is already?)
(They've drawn everyone's attention from the start.)
(Robin Hood who reacted oddly,)
(and adorable Chipmunk)
(What kind of performance are they going to show us?)
("For Couples Just Starting" by Lee Won Jin)
(She sings about the excitement of love with a clear voice.)
(She has a beautiful voice.)
(Startled)
(Wow)
(He has a powerful yet mellow voice.)
(He sends his earnest love...)
(to a woman who's afraid of love.)
(It was an emotional duet with heartbeats.)
Isn't he that guy?
(Isn't he Jung Si Ro of Bank?)
(Is Robin Hood Jung Si Ro of Bank?)
He's incredible.
(House Band)
(Her voice is beautiful.)
(She's been hiding her feelings for the fear of getting hurt.)
(He comforts her with his gorgeous voice.)
(His warm voice provides security.)
(He's very good.)
(They make a beautiful harmony...)
(on the verge of love.)
(It is a beautiful performance for those who are starting to love.)
(The audience is fascinated by their pure love.)
It's more than I expected. I was surprised.
- They are great. - It's so good.
They make a good couple.
The second match...
of Round One has finished.
Can you introduce yourself to the viewers, Robin Hood?
Hello.
I'm Robin Hood of Justice.
Hi, Arrow Nose.
Arrow Nose like Seo Kyung Seok's.
(He's cute.)
Hello, I'm Good to See Chipmunk.
- Great. - She's so cute.
It's nice to meet you.
Let's hear what Jang Hyuk thinks first.
Let me tell you what I think about Chipmunk.
No singer...
would hold the microphone with two hands.
- Really? - No, no one would.
Maybe there is one.
There is a singer...
- Lee Yong. - Lee Yong?
(He sang with passion, holding the microphone with two hands.)
He would always sing with the microphone in two hands.
- He always did. - Answer the question.
- I'll say again. It's not common. - It's rare.
However, her voice and delivery of the message...
through the song were the best.
(Thank you.)
Her voice was so beautiful...
that it made me wonder what she looks like...
throughout the performance.
- Was it? - Yes.
- Robin Hood... - How was he?
sang the chorus very confidently.
In conclusion,
he is...
a ballad singer.
He got caught.
- You think he's a ballad singer. - No, he's not.
- Ballad singer. - He's definitely not a singer.
(He is very confident.)
Are you sure?
(It's hard to believe with his singing skills.)
I've appeared on different TV programmes...
- for more than 10 years. - I know.
- I've met so many people. - You met just about everyone.
Most people would not pay...
attention to every single detail,
while I carefully observe everyone.
I figured out who he was as soon as he came out.
He is a man...
who was born from a very rich family.
He dedicated his youth...
to acting in TV and plays.
We have a special bond with each other.
Is there such a relationship between you two?
We share a memory of a place.
Do you live in Gimpo?
- Don't be too hasty. - He seems very confident.
Seong Ju is disturbed.
- I don't know why I'm nervous. - You got caught as well.
The writers of this programme may want to get rid of me.
"How can we shut his mouth? Make him stop talking."
But I figured out who he is.
(I outsmarted you.)
- Gu Ra... - Seong Ju is very fazed.
- Look at him. - No, I'm not fazed at all.
Since your opinion is totally opposite to Jang Hyuk's,
it makes me surprised.
I admit that I'm being fazed.
I know. The producer will probably show a memo that says...
"Don't be fazed, Seong Ju."
I have another clue.
He keeps scratching...
- the back of his head. - He does.
- Is he losing hair? - Maybe because it's itch?
- That's a clue as well. - Is it?
Please stop doing it.
Seong Ju, you know why that's a clue, don't you?
I have no idea.
Hyun Chul, you stood up...
as soon as they started singing.
Robin Hood...
has a very straight tone of voice.
It could be because...
he sang many rock songs.
- I see. - When Chipmunk...
sang her parts,
he sang in three notes higher than the original key.
(Robin Hood's voice went higher than a woman.)
It's absolutely impossible.
Is he a singer?
- I think he is a singer. - You got caught.
- I know I got caught. - Yes, you did.
That's why I like being on King of Mask Singer.
Unlike Gu Ra's opinion,
he is a singer to me.
I was thinking...
who can sing in high notes...
with straight tone of voice.
I came up with Jung Si Ro of Bank...
who sang "I Can't Have You".
(He sings with a sweet and emotive voice.)
(Is Jung Si Ro of Bank Robin Hood?)
I think he might be Jung Si Ro.
As for Chipmunk, she sang...
in accurate beats of the song...
from the beginning to the end.
She has a very good pronunciation.
Although she didn't sing with emphasis,
she pronounced the lyrics at ease.
She's similar to Jung Ji Young...
who's hosting MBC FM Radio in the morning.
"Morning, I'm Jung Ji Young."
That's why I am thinking that...
she could be an announcer.
Young Seok, you watched the performance with a smile on.
Chipmunk sang...
very softly like a feather.
It felt like the first love...
giving off the smell of fresh soap.
I would want to share some peanuts with her.
(Would you like some peanuts?)
I think it was a good performance.
Robin Hood,
why did you come back to the city from Mount Jiri?
Do you think he's living in Mount Jiri?
After he finished hard training,
he left the city and went up to the mountain.
- But he came down again. - Did he?
- I think so. - Who is he?
You got caught.
- Who got caught? - Gu Ra?
- Gu Ra did. - You think Gu Ra got caught?
- Is that correct? - Yes, for sure.
He got caught.
All the experts say he's a singer.
- Gu Ra's the only one. - I'm 120 percent sure.
I'm the only one who says he's not.
Even if 99 people from the audience...
says he's a singer, I still say he's not.
- Are you sure? - I am sure.
- Can you even bet your seat? - Of course.
- Are you serious? - I have no problem with that.
If you are wrong,
how about watching the show...
with audience next week?
(We like that idea.)
He is very sure.
Even if the experts keep saying he is a singer,
Gu Ra believes he's an actor,
not a singer.
Robin Hood is a singer.
- I'm 100 percent sure. - 100 percent?
Yes. The highlight of the song is...
"Fear to evade".
It was the best...
I've ever heard in my life.
(It was soft enough to melt our hearts.)
(Surprised)
It feels like he's rubbing his vocal chords with sandpaper.
He sang beautifully with his soft voice.
I'm 100 percent sure he is a singer.
Gu Ra and I can fight for our seats.
Are you serious?
If I'm right,
come to my seat instead of going to the audience.
As my seat is same as the audience seat, come here.
- Can you do that? - I will do that.
- You promised. - I accept your offer. Anytime.
Now there are different opinions,
these two will show you their specialities.
You'll find it easier to guess.
Chipmunk...
has prepared dance.
Music, please.
(How would this calm Chipmunk dance?)
(Jumping)
(Dancing skillfully)
This is unexpected.
She wasn't a shy girl after all.
Her dance moves are extraordinary.
Oh, gosh.
If only her outfit were easier to move...
How can she dance like that in such an outfit?
She's so cute.
Now, Robin Hood will show us the trance arrow dance.
Music, please.
(His choice of song is witty.)
(He swings his arms.)
He's ready to go.
He's shooting arrows. His moves are springy.
(I shoot shoot shoot)
He's shooting the arrow...
and hooting.
(I'll shoot, too.)
His dance isn't over yet.
He's dancing.
Go.
(He dances cutely.)
(He shakes his body.)
He's very rhythmical.
Go, go.
(He twists his legs.)
Look, he's twisting his body at his will.
This is amazing.
He's in a trance.
Let's stop here.
He's so cute.
I thought Robin Hood to be old,
but now that I saw his speciality,
he feels like cute Peter Pan.
That's what I felt.
She's trapped.
Am I?
As for Chipmunk, I just thought that she's cute.
But her dance moves tell me...
that she's more than a cute chipmunk.
She's more than a cute chipmunk.
I think she works for a company.
Does she work for a company?
In other words, she's an announcer.
Lee Jae Eun, for example.
(Is she being an entertainer?)
Okay, then.
What?
We'll be bold enough to let you hear her real voice.
Let us hear your voice mimicry of Kim Yu Na from Jaurim.
Hey Hey Hey
It's about time we flew high
We'll stop here.
You did well.
- Wait a minute. - What is this?
She's so cute.
She works for a company.
She's cute.
Hello, Chipmunk,
don't work as a freelancer.
Don't quit the company.
With that speciality, you can't be a freelancer.
- Do you hear me? - She wasn't so bad.
Be satisfied with your job.
Don't be so stressed about the morning shows.
When you come to work every morning at 6am,
you might want to quit, but don't.
Be a loyal employee of the company.
She's a responsible employee.
There's one more speciality.
She will mimic the voice of Ju Da In from Juju Club.
Be confident.
Let's hear Ju Da In's voice.
(Te te te te)
Is this it?
Wait.
Gosh,
she's so cute.
(Hyun Chul smiles.)
I'll give you Robin Hood's real voice.
Let's hear Lee Won Jong's voice from "The Age of Gangsters".
(His voice is thick and has a distinctive accent.)
Get me Kim Du Hwan.
He's exactly like him.
(Satisfied)
Now, he will mimic the voice of Song Sae Byeok, the actor.
Let us hear it.
Gu Ra,
I'm sorry that it took so long to perform on the show.
Don't hit the same place you've already hit. It hurts.
- Let's stop here. - Oh, gosh.
(He's like a human copier.)
I'm a bit edgy now.
He's exactly like him.
Is he like the person you have in mind?
Precisely like him.
(Yes, of course.)
Haven't you changed your mind?
No, I haven't.
Now, I will announce the result...
of the second match of Round One.
Who will be the winner to move on to Round Two?
I'll announce the winner of this match...
who has enchanted you.
(Will it be Chipmunk whose clear voice...)
(lifted our spirits?)
(Or will it be Robin Hood whose deep voice...)
(woke our sensibility?)
The winner who will move on to Round Two...
is...
The winner is...
Let it be Chipmunk.
It's Robin Hood.
(Whom will the panellists choose?)
Who's going to be the winner...
between Robin Hood and Chipmunk,
Chipmunk and Robin Hood? The winner is...
(Robin Hood of Justice is the winner.)
Robin Hood is the winner.
The winner is Robin Hood.
Oh, no.
Go, Robin Hood.
Oh, no. Chipmunk.
Robin Hood is the winner.
The final score was 72 to 27.
He defeated Chipmunk with a great margin and became a winner.
Please go back to your waiting room and get ready for the next round.
Please give him a round of applause.
Robin Hood became the winner.
My knees are buckling.
I was so nervous.
I'll prepare the next performance.
Wait up, king. I'm coming.
Who will Chipmunk be?
We will reveal her identity with a solo performance...
she prepared for Round Two.
Please give her a big hand.
She had a good voice and delivery.
Her pronunciation is exceptional.
She can be an announcer.
(She was playful and talented.)
She seems playful.
(Her speciality wasn't so skillful.)
Don't work as a freelancer.
Don't quit the company. Do you understand?
("Nocturne" by Kim Yu Na)
(Her deep breath is filled with sorrow.)
(A woman is waiting for her lover with all her heart.)
(She delivers such sorrow.)
(Every note sounds mournful.)
(When will my lover come)
Now, Chipmunk, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
She is...
Who on earth is she?
What's going on?
(Who's the person under Chipmunk's mask?)
She is...
the actress of 23 years of acting career,
Kim So Yeon.
(She's Kim So Yeon.)
(She's here at last.)
(Nice to meet you.)
(So Yeon was the cutie.)
(It's nice to see you.)
(Her voice sounds different from the one we've heard in dramas.)
(Gosh.)
(Her voice contains the sensibility too sad for words.)
(She directly delivers the despair of the emotions.)
(Her voice makes the audience wander in emotions.)
(It was lovely.)
She is so cute.
She has a beautiful voice.
Please say hello...
to the viewers.
Hello, I am Kim So Yeon.
It's nice to meet you.
Thank you.
I only sent it to one person.
Don't worry. I didn't send it to Hyung Min.
Of course I need money. That's why I came here.
What are you talking about?
Do you think I wanted to get rooked?
You didn't want me to leave, right?
Did it hurt your feelings to be compared to Cinderella?
(She can also handle action scenes.)
(Kim So Yeon is a great actress with many talents.)
I am not ready yet.
I am telling you that I must go to him.
I will always love you.
(She can handle romantic roles.)
(Kim So Yeon is an actress with 23 years of experience.)
I heard that you often watch King of Mask Singer.
I love King of Mask Singer so much...
that I asked the production team to invite me to the show.
- You told them. - That's right.
You asked them to be in the show.
I heard that...
that you practised hard...
- and took voice lessons. - Yes, I did.
(She began practising on "We Got Married".)
You practised.
- That's not true. - You practised.
(Even the people who took the government exam...)
(will be impressed by how much she practised.)
(That was nice.)
(Whenever she had questions, she asked the crew members.)
(This is how she got ready for King of Mask Singer.)
I became very nervous when I got on the stage.
I'm afraid I've disappointed my voice teacher with my performance.
You feel you could have done a better job.
Singing is the language of the heart.
While there are techniques, it always represents the heart.
Your singing showed that you are humble.
It opened our hearts...
and made us like the performance even more.
- I see. - You are amazing.
So Yeon started her acting career later than me.
She has always been polite.
Her warmth,
politeness and kind heart...
are her best strengths that can win friends.
What were you excited about the most...
while preparing for this performance?
When a masked singer reveals his or her identity,
the audience shows a great reaction.
Even watching it on TV thrills me.
So, I wanted to be in that position.
I am so grateful that many people...
were surprised...
by my identity.
Many people were surprised.
They were very surprised.
You were so courageous.
So Yeon gave...
everyone including herself an unforgettable memory.
Give her a round of applause.
(We were touched by your heartful singing.)
My goodness.
All right.
I really wanted to be on the show.
I had a lot of fun.
My entire family loves King of Mask Singer.
I didn't tell my family about this.
I am sure they are very surprised right now.
"Did you go out every day to practise for the show?"
I can imagine my parents being happy and slapping my back.
It was a new way of challenging myself.
Now that it is over,
I find courage welling up inside of me.
I am glad I gathered my courage and came here.
I think this day will be a big gift...
to me.
Robin Hood of Justice beat Kim So Yeon...
and moved on to Round Two.
Right after this show ends, the online mobile survey...
on this week's masked singers by netizens will proceed.
Please join the survey.
I give you the third match of Round One.
(The duet song match of Round One...)
(continues on.)
This is the third match of Round One.
She sings for one and only with single-minded devotion.
Forget Me Not, Myosotis!
(She appears with aroma of flowers.)
(Smiling and glaring)
- Wow. - She is a flower.
Opposing her...
is a women with a magical voice that relieves the burden.
Honey Catcher's Magic Spell!
(Honey Catcher's Magic Spell)
(Swaying)
(She is a bit funny.)
Hello. How cute!
Is she Park Na Rae?
Na Rae, is that you?
(No way.)
I think she is a comedienne.
Maybe she is your favourite, Song Eun I.
She looks more like Park Na Rae.
I think she is Park Na Rae.
(Who is she?)
(It's a collaboration of a flower and a bee.)
(Panellists cannot ascertain their identities...)
(from their outward appearances.)
(What will their voices sound like?)
("Singing Got Better" by Ailee)
(She has a clear, high-pitched voice.)
(Wow)
(Her emotion spreads like the scent of flowers.)
(What is going on?)
(She is a powerful vocalist.)
(Honey Catcher has a full voice.)
(Myosotis fights back with her crystal voice.)
(Both are quite talented.)
(Her unique voice captivates their ears.)
(She is not a comedienne.)
(I don't know who she is.)
(Her high notes are stable.)
(Her voice has no fringes.)
(The lyrics travel right into the ears.)
(Their harmony creates the sadness of a breakup.)
(House Band)
(It's a harmony between...)
(a clear voice and a powerful voice.)
(Sadness spreads in echo.)
(Wow)
Both of them sang very well.
They sang really well.
(Two different voices take the audience...)
(to a journey of two lovers parting.)
(Bravo)
I got goosebumps.
(Encore)
I was so sure that she is Park Na Rae.
Who said she is Park Na Rae?
It was a refreshing performance.
The third match came to an end.
Young Seok, tell us how you liked their beautiful performance.
Her singing was that of a general in the military.
- Her singing? - She was determined to win.
(General Honey Catcher was determined to win.)
(She loaded a cannon that was her voice.)
(She started firing.)
(Hitting the mark)
(I will seize the panellists' hearts.)
(I'm General Honey Catcher.)
She has a deep resonant voice.
What about Myosotis?
She sounded pure and clear.
Her voice is like the skin with no blemishes.
(Her clear voice left a lingering scent.)
It's like putting on light make-up called rhythm and blues...
on her clean and flawless skin.
Her rhythm and blues singing style in some parts...
sounded elegant yet casual at the same time.
It felt so magnificent.
(Her magnificent voice satisfied all five senses.)
- Jang Hyuk. - Actually, I passed...
- Honey Catcher in the hallway. - I saw her saying hello to him.
She bowed to me in 90° angle.
- She is a polite person. - I guess she respects Jang Hyuk.
I guess that was a hint...
that she is a singer.
I think she has...
a bee's stinger because she is a bee.
Her voice has the power...
to sting people like a bee.
Meanwhile, Myosotis was...
good at singing with head voice, chest voice and even from diaphragm.
She was in full control of her voice.
I believe she is a great singer...
who can sing everything.
She didn't even run out of breath.
You mean her lung capacity is large considering her small build.
Both were perfectly tuned.
(That's right.)
Honey Catcher...
sounded like Riaa.
(Riaa)
Or the vocalist of Cherry Filter.
(You Jeen of Cherry Filter)
She is one of those who presses her voice down.
Meanwhile, Myosotis opens her throat.
In fact, Hyun Chul surprises me...
quite often.
Many people had said...
- that he is a genius. - You are right.
But so much of...
his genius side is gone now.
It surprises me quite often.
- Are you saying he is dull now? - Yes, he is dull.
Really?
(With his pure and innocent face,)
(he mesmerised his fans with his talent.)
(He even made a fan with neck injury rise up.)
(It is all in the past.)
Hyun Chul just said that...
- she sounded like Riaa. - Yes.
She is Riaa.
He doesn't even know that...
he just picked the right person.
- Is she Riaa? - Yes, she is.
- Isn't it someone like Riaa? - But Hyun Chul...
doesn't even know that she is her.
I laughed my head off from inside.
He just said that she was like Riaa when she actually is Riaa.
I've met Riaa...
in person many times.
I'm well aware of her height and build.
I think Honey Catcher is shorter than Riaa.
I don't think she is Riaa.
I don't think she is Riaa, either.
She has her own unique nasal voice.
I can't hold back tears
(This is her unique nasal voice.)
She has her unique chest voice...
that comes through her nose.
What does that mean?
I can't sing like her.
(Laughing out loud)
I can sing like Riaa.
The voice comes through the nose.
I can't hold back tears
- That's right. - She did it right.
It's true that Honey Catcher made that sound a few times.
But she sang...
in a whole different way...
and made that sound only a few times.
I don't think it's her real voice.
I think she just made that sound to hide herself.
You are saying that Gu Ra fell for that.
- I think he did. - Okay.
I don't care. I'm not an expert.
I'm just a comedian. Never mind.
- You are not a guru. - That's a problem for the gurus.
Okay.
The experts are saying that they are both singers.
Can we see their speciality or something?
- Do you want to see that? - Yes.
Okay.
First, Honey Catcher...
will mimic the animals in the animal farm.
She will mimic a camel laughing.
- A laughing camel? - That's new.
Show us a camel laughing.
(Is she crying?)
(Is she hungry?)
That's funny.
- That's it. - It is funny.
And this is a sensitive fox.
Show us a sensitive fox.
(Barking like a dog)
Isn't it a sensitive dog?
Is it really a fox? She says it's a fox.
She insists that it was a fox.
This is unique.
She will mimic...
cartoon characters.
Cartoon characters. Do you know Goofy?
- Goofy? - Goofy, the dog. Show us.
That's it.
This is the last one.
She will mimic Road Runner, the ostrich.
- Road Runner, the ostrich. - The fast-running bird.
That's right. She's totally right.
She just sounds like the Road Runner.
- That's right. - It was the ostrich.
The speciality she just showed...
- was something popular in 1970s. - It was on AFKN.
- AFKN? - Yes.
I think she's about my age.
It is what I used to watch as a child.
- Goofy. - And the ostrich.
I watched those cartoon films as a child.
(It means...)
I guess she was born...
in late 1970s or early 1980s.
Okay then. This is the last one.
Myosotis will show her dance moves.
It's called Madam Dance.
It will show...
the progress of middle aged women...
getting excited by stages. Music, please.
(Don't do this in the bus.)
Stage one of Madam Dance.
(She warms up.)
She starts dancing lightly.
Now, she's in a tour bus.
That's right.
Let's get more intense.
(She now has some friends to dance with.)
Stage two.
This is it.
This is how they dance in stage two.
They know how to party.
(Hey you!)
(Wait for me.)
(There is no way out.)
Her gestures are getting bigger.
That's it.
(Myosotis showed a great dance.)
Let's wrap it up with a minority opinion from Yoon Seok.
I think Myosotis...
is a singer-songwriter.
- A singer-songwriter? - I met her on a radio programme.
She is Juniel.
(She is a girl with a great singing ability.)
(She is a singer-songwriter who writes her own songs.)
She writes her own songs and is a great singer.
She is like a delicate girl.
I think she is Juniel.
Okay. That sounds plausible.
Now, I will...
announce the result of the third match...
of Round One.
Forget Me Not, Myosotis with a straightforward voice...
and Honey Catcher's Magic Spell with a powerful voice.
I'll now reveal the winner...
of this fierce match.
(The result is about to be revealed.)
(She has a clear and cool voice.)
(Will Myosotis win...)
(with her unforgettable voice?)
(She has a rich and unique voice.)
(Will Honey Catcher's Magic Spell win...)
(with her powerful voice?)
Myosotis and Honey Catcher.
Who is the winner...
who will move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
Who is the winner?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Screaming)
Myosotis.
Honey Catcher.
I have no idea.
This is the most difficult one.
(It was a beautiful and powerful duet.)
(They all are having an anxious moment.)
(Who will be the winner of this match?)
Who will move on to Round Two?
Who is the winner? Please show the result.
(Forget Me Not, Myosotis wins.)
Myosotis wins.
(Myosotis wins!)
I knew it!
(Drawing deep sighs)
(The panellists react with joy and disappointment.)
Myosotis won with a final score of 56 to 43.
The difference in the number of votes they received was only 13.
Myosotis, please go back to your waiting room.
Please give her a round of applause.
She moved on to Round Two.
Myosotis moved on to the next round.
(She leaves the stage with the guard's help.)
I was surprised to see the results.
It's time to turn off the radio.
Let's go!
We'll reveal her identity with a solo performance prepared.
Please give her a round of applause.
She sounded like...
Riaa or the vocalist of Cherry Filter.
She is one of those who presses her voice down.
He just said that she sounded like Riaa.
She is Riaa.
I don't think she is Riaa.
I don't think she is Riaa, either.
("Breakup with Her" by Kim Hyun Jung)
(Thumping beats)
What song is this?
(What is this familiar melody?)
This is cool.
(The song was rearranged for the rock bands.)
I love this song.
This is a good song.
(Their bodies are reacting to the song immediately.)
(Whose voice is this?)
(Her deep sensibility shows her years of experience.)
(She has a refreshing and powerful voice.)
(She's about to sing the super high notes.)
(She effortlessly sings the high notes with her powerful voice.)
(Now)
(Her singing gives you a shudder.)
(She sounds sexy and feisty.)
(Honey Catcher's Magic Spell is a passionate vocalist.)
(Who would she be?)
Who is she?
Now, Honey Catcher's Magic Spell, please take off your mask...
and show your face.
(Screaming)
(They're making a big fuss.)
She has a very short hair.
Isn't she Cheetah?
Is that a guy?
Who are you?
(Her identity is finally revealed.)
She is...
Riaa, a singer with 21 years of experience.
It was her.
(It's good to see you.)
It was Riaa.
(Gu Ra was right about who she was.)
- Riaa. - She's a great singer.
(She's someone who we've missed for a long time.)
(Oh, my.)
(With the exact same look as before,)
(Riaa fills our hearts with passion.)
(She shows her true ability that she hid on the previous stage.)
(Her passion and charisma rule the stage.)
(She sings with all her heart.)
(Amazed)
(The woman of charisma has returned.)
(It was Riaa's intense stage with her unchanged charisma.)
(They're giving her a standing ovation.)
(They only utter exclamations of admiration.)
She's great.
(The panellists are all delighted to see Riaa.)
It's already been over 20 years since she debuted.
It was Riaa.
Please say hello to the viewers.
- Hello. I'm Riaa. - All right.
(With her unique nasal sound and singing style,)
(she made big hits with songs as "Tears" and "That's How I Am".)
(As if it reflects the spirit of the age,)
(she has always worn her hair short like a symbol.)
(However, with endless musical endeavours,)
(she keeps on challenging new genres like OST and electronic music.)
(Riaa, a singer with 25 years of experience)
Did you have any stereotypes that you wanted to break on our show?
I did.
When I go out to walk my dog,
people would say, "Gosh, you're Riaa."
Then I'd answer them politely.
Actually, I'm not a very tough and overpowering.
I wanted to change that image of me.
I'm good at cooking...
- and sometimes cute. - I see.
- Gosh. - I wanted you to know that.
Hyun Chul said she's singing like Riaa.
It was really Riaa.
You really sang like Riaa.
Yes. She sounded like herself.
From start to finish.
You have a voice that...
everyone can recognise.
- Thank you. - That's...
something that singers are jealous of.
You're blessed.
- Thank you. - You did great.
Good. Today, she wasn't a tough and strong woman...
but a friendly person just like a girl next door.
She is very charming in an amiable way. It was Riaa.
Please give her a big hand.
(We hope to see you more often.)
All right. You'll never see her being so cute...
anywhere else, but here on King of Mask Singer.
I've had short hair for a long time.
Once your image gets engraved on people's memory,
it's hard to change that.
There're many fields that I couldn't try because of my image.
I wanted to try singing comic songs,
but I was afraid that people might think, "Why would she do that?"
I thought I might make a fool of myself.
From what I saw today, I don't think people see me that way.
I think they find me more easygoing. They accepted me for who I am.
I'd like to use this chance...
to challenge and experience different genres of music.
I think I will be able to enjoy my music even more.
Thank you, King of Mask Singer. Thank you, dear viewers.
Please look forward to my performance. Let's go!
Forget Me Not, Myosotis defeated Riaa...
and moved on to Round Two.
The last match of Round One.
He is an amazing vocalist who transcends time and space.
Time to Sing, Dear.
(Time to Sing, Dear)
(Ticking)
Dear panellists, please cast your valuable vote for me.
(Please look forward to hearing my voice.)
It's a clock.
It's time to sing.
His opponent...
scores a thrilling strike to become the next King of Mask Singer.
One Strike is All, Bowling Man.
(One Strike is All, Bowling Man)
One strike is all.
It's time for the King of Mask Singer to go home.
(He's funny.)
He looks cool.
I think he's going to be amazing.
(In this match,)
(I'll score a big strike.)
(Then I will...)
(Posing)
(September 18, 2016, 4:50pm)
It's when I fall in love with you.
(King of Mask Singer airs at 4:50pm. Don't forget.)
(We won't forget.)
They're both great.
(The grand hazing is over.)
(Now, it's time for...)
(their thrilling match.)
("The Man in Yellow Shirt" by Han Myeong Suk)
I'm having so much fun today.
(The song makes you excited from the start.)
(How are they going to sing it?)
(This is great.)
(They're getting into the rhythm.)
(You can sense his toughness through his husky voice.)
Who is that?
(He looks confident on stage.)
(He must be a singer.)
(Oh, my.)
(Wow)
(The moment he sings the first note, his classy voice strikes your ears.)
(His lilting voice makes you move your shoulders up and down.)
(He's so charming.)
(He gently sways.)
(He moves up and down.)
(He freely moves his body.)
(You can feel the rock spirit from his singing style.)
(The man in yellow shirt)
(Time to Sing plays with the song freely.)
(He's sweet...)
(and sexy.)
(His attractive voice captivates the audience.)
(The audience is excited.)
(I'm so excited.)
(Two men deliver energy.)
Go, guys.
(Following the rhythm)
(Time to Sing starts to show his capability.)
(The stage is in trance now.)
(It's an exciting performance put on by two men.)
(That's right.)
(Everybody is smiling.)
I love it.
(Who are these singers who make the stage so fantastic?)
(It's a magical finale of the holiday.)
(The audience is excited.)
(They are thrilling.)
(The audience can't help but cheer for them.)
They are so charming.
(He must have put in all his power into the stage.)
The last match of Round One has ended.
Starting from Time to Sing, please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, I'm...
Time to Sing,
Dear.
(He's cute.)
He seems to be a cute man.
Hello, I'm...
One Strike is All,
Bowling Man.
He must have...
a slightly thin voice.
Jang Hyuk, why did you tilt your head?
- I may know him. - You may know him.
He has a voice and spirit...
I'm quite familiar with.
Look at his posture.
The posture is very improper.
Not many of the singers...
- leant on one foot. - Only few singers.
Judging from that posture, he must be very used to...
performing on shows and stages.
In the interlude, with his thumb...
he did the motion of playing the base...
and then the guitar.
(Let's see for ourselves.)
(He's doing the motion of playing the base.)
(Mimicking)
(Then playing the guitar)
(Mimicking)
It means that he's familiar with rock bands.
When Time to Sing sang...
"handsome man" like this,
he sounded like Michael Bublé.
I thought that his voice will be good with big band swing music.
Both of them enjoyed the music so much...
that they made us so happy.
Ho Ran, why are you so fidgety?
- She's in love with them. - What's going on?
I loved the performance so much.
Like he said, Time to Sing's voice is more suitable for...
African-American music such as rhythm and blues, hiphop and CCM.
Bowling Man's voice sounds like that of unique rock bands...
with rider jackets and Mohawk hairstyle,
singing very unique rock music.
He looks like a man who'll put on unconventional performances.
Earlier, you talked about his leaning on one foot.
Most of the people will change their posture...
when they get a comment about it.
- Once they get a comment. - But he kept his posture.
I felt his persistence about life or music.
Both of them seem to be experienced singers...
who know how to rule over the stage.
She talked about band again.
- Hyun Chul. - Yes.
The song "The Man in Yellow Shirt"...
contains joys and sorrows of Korean.
During Vietnam War in 1960s,
the singer visited the camp site to sing this song.
Also, many taxi drivers loved this song.
(Many taxi drivers loved the song.)
They sang this song, wearing yellow shirts.
He's wearing a yellow shirt.
He's old.
- Bowling Man is old. - He is definitely old.
- He's willing to take the blame. - He's old.
- He's old. - How old do you think he is?
- He's over 50. - Over 50.
- Oh, gosh. - Come on.
He wants to take the blame.
(I'm going to take this mask off.)
Did I guess right?
(Is Bowling Man more than 50 years old?)
Time to Sing must be as old as ordinary idols.
- He's polite. - He's an idol.
He's young.
Attention! At ease!
Rest. Thank you.
Did you see that?
- He's young. - He's young.
Let's hear from Hyun Chul, the singer.
If Bowling Man were a rock musician...
Do you know Eve, a rock band?
- Eve. - Yes.
(He's a rock musician with his own style.)
(Their slender, muscular bodies look similar.)
- Kim Se Heon. - His body is like Se Heon.
He's skinny but muscular.
As Ho Ran has said,
rock musicians...
don't do things because they are told to.
He was about to take off the mask earlier,
which implies that he doesn't perform often...
in shows.
He's very free-spirited.
Was the motion awkward?
It wasn't awkward.
He challenges the authority of the broadcasting network.
(Is it challenge against the network?)
It's a very hard thing to do,
- but he's going to do it. - That's right.
He performs in venues around Hongdae.
- And liberal. - He's from around there.
As for Time to Sing, Dear,
I think that's what he has heard most...
for the past ten years.
- Is that so? - He used to be a huge star...
who's currently out of music industry for various reasons.
He's been fishing so much...
that his skin got tanned.
He's been inactive.
As Gu Ra said,
when I heard Time to Sing's song,
I could hear eagerness in his song.
- I did feel that, too. - His mother,
his father and friends...
as well as his girlfriend must have told him that.
- Even his fans. - While he was inactive.
They must have told him that it's time to sing.
He's jazzy as well as bluesy.
He has great musicality.
He has a wonderful voice like Frank Sinatra in heyday.
I'd like to say that he has more charm...
as a solo artist.
As for Bowling Man,
when we like singers...
and their music,
we may like them...
for their honesty and frankness,
or for their pretension.
In singing, there are four kinds of pretension.
They are gesture pretension, pronunciation pretension,
emotional pretension and expressional pretension.
He has all four kinds of pretension.
His pretension doesn't look pretentious...
because he also has capability.
Because he's talented.
Thanks to his talent, the pretension looks cool.
He has a clear sense of value which, at least on stage,
is beautifully brought out.
He said that both of them had great voices.
Now, it's time to see...
their specialities.
This is the speciality...
that no one has shown so far.
As speciality, Time to Sing will...
- show us card magic. - Wow, card magic.
What kind of magic is that?
The cards will disappear suddenly.
- The cards disappear... - Yes.
- all of a sudden. - That's right.
It must be fun.
You don't see this often.
That's true.
- These cards will disappear. - Yes.
What happens if we find the cards?
Don't try to find them.
Enjoy magic as it is.
But the audience is everywhere,
so it won't be easy for you to hide the cards.
People on this side, please hold still.
The audience at the back of the stage,
please cooperate.
The cards are likely to go back.
- The cards will disappear. - Watch carefully.
Hold still, please.
Now, watch.
(He begins the card trick.)
One, two.
(The card is gone.)
(It appeared again.)
(Waving a hand)
(The card is back.)
(It's amazing.)
He's amazing.
(He's good.)
It was great.
- Now, let's hear his real voice. - I'm looking forward to it.
He will mimic the sound of squeezing shampoo.
It's the sound of squeezing a shampoo bottle.
That sounds hard.
(Let's see.)
(Hitting)
(Squeezing)
(It's exactly the same.)
He's very observant.
- He's observant. - Can you do a ketchup bottle?
The sound of squeezing a ketchup bottle.
- Ketchup. - Squeeze an old ketchup bottle.
(Punching the bottle)
I love it. That's what I wanted.
He's really excited.
(Laughing hard)
He is excited.
He likes this kind of speciality.
Bowling Man, it's your turn.
What will you show us?
I will imitate...
the sound of a fly stuck between the windows.
A fly is stuck between the windows.
- That's unfortunate. - It's a difficult task.
Let's hear it, Bowling Man.
(Let's hear it.)
That's the sound.
(How fascinating!)
- Excuse me. - He did an amazing job.
They are quite talented.
Give me a cardboard sign.
A cardboard sign? Okay.
I will do a voice impression.
I ask everyone to exclaim...
as if I have done a perfect job.
- Should people root for you? - Yes.
I am Morgan Freeman.
Morgan Freeman.
He sounds the same!
Maybe he is an actor.
(This time)
My name is Eddie.
- Who is he imitating? - Eddie Murphy.
Who will you imitate the last?
I am Optimus Prime.
- It's from "Transformers". - Optimus Prime.
(He did a perfect voice impression of a robot.)
All right.
You must have a lot of children.
Well...
It seems like he doesn't want to answer.
I thought...
of something else.
I can play music with my teeth.
- Teeth? - Yes.
It's a unique talent.
Before I begin,
- I must tune my teeth. - I see.
I will give you time.
(Knocking)
(Do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do)
My goodness.
(He is playing his teeth like a piano.)
He is tuning his teeth. Are you ready to begin?
All right. He will play his teeth. Let's hear it.
(So, so, la, la, so, so, mi)
Is he playing his teeth?
(Is this "School Bell Is Ringing"?)
It's nice.
(So, mi, re, mi, do)
That was amazing.
He played a song with his teeth.
- He didn't get an implant. - Not only that,
he didn't get veneers.
- He has healthy teeth. - How impressive!
DJ Soda, did you notice anything peculiar?
The thing is,
I often perform abroad.
Time to Sing reminds me of an idol I met abroad.
- He reminds you of an idol. - That's right.
I think he might be B.I of iKON.
B.I.
(He sang like a hip hop musician.)
(Is Time to Sing the leader and rapper of iKON?)
B.I of iKON.
It's time to announce the result.
The vocalist with irresistible charms,
Time to Sing, Dear...
and the manly vocalist,
One Strike is All, Bowling Man had a match.
The winner of this duet song match...
will be revealed now.
(The winner will be revealed now.)
(Hidden behind his melodious voice...)
(is a sense of rhythm that allows him to sing freely.)
(Time to Sing is a vocalist with a groove.)
(He has charms of a mature man.)
(He showed a hint of rock spirit.)
(The energetic and passionate vocalist, Bowling Man)
Who will become the last winner...
of a duet song match and move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner will move on to Round Two.
Between Time to Sing and Bowling Man, who won?
Show us the winner.
(Coming soon)
- Salute. - Salute.
This is the night-time emergency training.
I am exhausted.
Are you going to stop? Stand up now!
I will try my best.
- Salute. - Salute.
Congratulations on joining the Navy.
Everything will become harder now.

Time to Sing won.
(Let's congratulate, Time to Sing, Dear.)
(Time to Sing will move on to Round Two.)
Time to Sing beat Bowling Man...
with a final score of 73 to 26.
It was a landslide.
He will move on to the next round.
Please return to your waiting room.
Please give him a big hand. Time to Sing won.
Time to Sing will move on to Round Two.
This is fun.
I love my altered voice now.
King of Mask Singer, it must be hard to sit on a chair all day.
(Nervous)
I love sitting on a chair.
I once slept in a chair for two days.
Come on down.
Here is a man who skilfully imitated...
the sound of a fly stuck between the windows.
We will reveal his identity with a solo performance...
he prepared for Round Two.
Please give him a big hand.
(His identity will be revealed with a solo performance.)
He has a rock spirit.
I think he is one of the 1st or 2nd generation band...
that was active in Hongdae.
Have you heard of Eve?
He has a body like Kim Se Heon.
("Fly Little Chick" by N.EX.T)
(I don't know what to do.)
(His voice is both rough and delicate.)
(He sings as if he is speaking.)
(Bowling Man sings with his own emotions.)
(Who is he?)
(His simple voice moves the listeners' hearts.)
(Absorbed)
Now,
Bowling Man, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(My goodness)
(Surprised)
He is...
(My goodness)
- Everyone is excited. - Who is he?
Who is he?
He is...
the human copying machine and a comedian, Jung Sung Ho.
(No way.)
(Is he really Jung Sung Ho?)
(His identity shocked everyone.)
(She takes another look.)
I got goosebumps.
He can sing very well.
Seo Kyung Seok.
(Seo Kyung Seok)
(He sounds the same.)
Yoon Seok!
(He is the best.)
Lim Chang Jung.
(Lim Chang Jung)
(This is incredible.)
(He copies the voice as well as the singing style.)
(He is a human copying machine.)
Yim Jae Beum.
(Finally)
(The panellists are in a frenzy.)
Me.
(Jung Sung Ho)
(He finishes on a serious note with his own voice.)
(He lets his own voice be heard today.)
(He sings with all his heart.)
(You are cool.)
(Jung Sung Ho's voice shined in his amazing performance.)
(He is the best.)
Hello.
They kept mentioning my name even when I was not here.
I'm the comedian, Jung Sung Ho.
(He became a comedian through open recruitment in 1998.)
(And he became a star in the segment titled Joo Yeon in "Gag Night".)
Jung Sung Ho from "Gag Night".
(He won High Excellence Award for Variety Shows in 2006.)
(He made a big hit by imitating Yim Jae Beum's way of singing.)
(Jung Sung Ho is a man of passion.)
Jang Hyuk, you liked Sung Ho's voice, didn't you?
Those five people sitting right over here...
are having a meltdown.
We really thought that he was a very famous singer.
- Really? - I'm serious.
Ho Ran and Young Ji even fell in love with him.
- He is amazing. - I'm bewitched.
You didn't know Sung Ho was that good.
I didn't know he was that good.
I thought he was a popular indie musician.
He totally had me fooled.
I was standing like this because I felt tired.
Then they started talking about rock spirit.
So I couldn't change my posture.
Can you even play the guitar?
- Well... - What was this all about?
I learned how to play the guitar and the bass guitar.
I knew it. It looked so natural.
Actually I'm hosting a radio programme with Ho Ran every day.
It was surprising that she didn't recognise me.
- She was sure it was not you. - She was so sure.
- She said that. - She said that couldn't be true.
I will see him in the radio programme tomorrow.
I don't think I will be able to look at his face.
Was his voice much better than what you expected?
I totally fell in love with him.
I knew he was a good singer.
He gets to sing a little bit in the radio programme I'm hosting.
But he looked even better today with his great stage manners.
I want to take my feelings back.
Are you upset with that?
After he took off the mask,
he mimicked many people's voices as he sang.
Of course it was fun and pleasant.
But when he started singing with his real voice,
I choked up with emotion for some reason.
I wanted to let people...
hear me sing with my real voice.
I'm happy that I've achieved my goal today.
- Thank you very much. - You did it.
Thank you.
Today, he was not a comedian who mimicks other people's voices.
He was Jung Sung Ho who sang with his real voice...
and with his heart.
Please give him a round of applause.
(We look forward to your future endeavours.)
(We will always cheer for you.)
(He leaves the stage happily.)
I made my debut in 1998.
But I've never...
felt so touched before.
This might be who I really am.
It felt great.
