Last week...
(The charismatic singer, Catgirl took the audience by storm.)
(She surprised the panel with her explosive energy.)
Among these 3, who will be the 17th King of Mask Singer?
The next king is...
Catgirl.
Catgirl is the winner.
I wanted to sing to my heart's content. Thank you so much.
A new king has been crowned.
(However)
I'm here for the title.
I will take you down, Catgirl.
(Shocked)
Who will be the 18th King of Mask Singer?
The new king is...
(The spectacular tournament starts now.)
(King of Mask Singer)
Good evening, everyone.
We will blow away your stress.
This is the mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
I'm your unbiased host, Kim Seong Ju. Nice to meet you.
(The unbiased host, Kim Seong Ju)
Something dramatic happened last week.
In a three-way battle against two kings,
Catgirl came out victorious.
Thus, a new King of Mask Singer's era begins.
The Female Warrior Catgirl is sitting on her throne.
Please say hello to the viewers.
(She's testing her microphone.)
There we go.
Hello.
(She doesn't seem to be worried at all.)
(Screaming)
You're the new king.
Please be a little more dignified.
All right.
Last week...
You're sitting on the throne, please act with a little more dignity.
It's good to be here again after two weeks.
I worked hard to prepare for today's performance.
See you at the end of the show. Thank you.
All right.
(Will she be able to defend her crown?)
I see some new faces on the panel today.
We have two new members on the panel.
We have the silver spoon of the music industry,
Eun Ji Won.
Welcome to the show, Ji Won.
- It's good to be here. - Great.
- Ji Won is... - Why isn't he the gold spoon?
He's the silver spoon because his last name is synonymous with silver.
- And there is another new panelist. - We are a little bit concerned.
- She's going to test us. - Is that so?
Her presence alone makes men swoon.
- It's Ray Yang. - It's good to have you here.
- Hello, I'm Ray Yang. - Welcome.
(Two-time gold medalist of the 2015 Musclemania Universe)
(She took the country by storm with the nickname, "Bikini-clad Hottie".)
- Am I not enough? - No, you're not.
I said the same thing when Kim Sae Rom joined the panel.
"Am I not enough?"
(Am I not enough?)
I guess everyone thinks the same way.
We look forward to our panelists' sharp deductions and judgments.
The first round is a duet song showdown.
The first match begins now.
The first match of the first round.
The singer with a holy voice as dazzling as the sun,
The Sad Pharaoh with a Big Head.
(The Pharaoh's head is so big that the hall feels cramped.)
(Surprised)
He reminds me of Cleopatra.
On the opposing side...
is a singer with an endorphin-inducing voice,
Demetan's friend, Ranatan.
(Demetan's friend, Ranatan)
(Cute)
(She appears carrying a frog doll.)
(She arouses a nostalgic feeling.)
The girl frog
She's cute.
(Hello.)
(Hi.)
Her gestures are somewhat childish.
She could have practiced the gestures before coming on.
Who could that be?
(Muscular)
Look at his arms.
Look at his body.
Ranatan is tiny compared to him.
She has a nice body, too.
- It's a little girl. - Excuse me?
I'm talking about Ranatan.
(The king of the desert who's physically imposing...)
(and a tiny frog who will sing a duet song together.)
(What kind of harmony will these two masked singers create?)
("For Couples Who Just Got Together" by Lee Won Jin)
(This is a really good song.)
(Appearances can be deceiving.)
(Ranatan's singing shows that she's more experienced than she looks.)
(That's a real man.)
(His big body channels the energy...)
(and his voice sends it out perfectly.)
I think he has the body of an actor.
(He is a good singer, but we have no idea who he is.)
Look at his arms.
He looks like an athlete, right?
I have no clue who he is.
I have no clue.
I could tell who it was when I was watching at home.
Ji Won, it's impossible.
We're not getting it wrong on purpose.
Listening to them here makes it even more confusing.
(I think she's a singer.)
(She has to be a singer.)
They're really good.
Aren't they too good at singing to be actors?
(I think she is older than she looks.)
(Their sentimental performance revealed years of experience.)
That was amazing.
Their performance had some power at the end.
They are amazing.
- I think he is an athlete. - I agree.
I can tell just by looking at his body.
The first match of the first round comes to an end.
Putting your prejudice aside,
pick the singer you want to listen to again in the next round.
I always guess correctly when I watch it at home.
But watching it from here, I can't really tell.
Young Seok, please cast your vote.
- What are you doing? - I forgot.
- All this time, he was talking... - Okay.
so I assumed he had already cast his vote.
You need to vote first.
With Young Seok's vote, everyone has voted.
Let's have the masked singers say hello to the viewers.
Hello, I'm the Sad Pharaoh with a Big Head.
(Don't cry.)
We have the great ruler of ancient Egypt, the Pharaoh.
Demetan is my friend.
(She is strange.)
I'm Demetan's friend, Ranatan. Hello.
We have Demetan's friend, Ranatan.
She is wearing a cute outfit.
I wonder what everyone thought about their performance.
Let's hear first from the mother of the music industry, Young Seok.
Pharaoh has...
an incredibly charming voice.
- He may be an actor. Yes. - An actor?
When he sings, his voice rises...
and then he drags the high notes.
That means he understands how to sing.
He knows how to sing, yet you think he's an actor.
He could be a singer.
(He could be a singer.)
- That's cheating. - He's indecisive.
- What are we going to do with you? - Okay, moving on.
When Pharaoh sings with his vocal style,
I can tell he has big lungs.
Also, take a good look at his arms.
Typical musicians do not have arms like that.
Only someone like Kim Jong Kook might have those muscular arms.
He must have worked out a lot.
His body gives me the impression that he is an athlete...
with a lot of talents.
I have no doubt that Pharaoh is an athlete.
Which professional sport just finished its season?
- It's baseball. - Yes, the baseball season is over.
(He's pretending to throw a baseball.)
(Would this count as a hint?)
It's impossible to get biceps and triceps like those without training.
Looking at him now, I think his stomach is swollen and bloated.
- His stomach? - Yes.
- Is his stomach filled with gas? - Not gas.
He just has a big stomach.
It's sticking out.
So I believe he may be a catcher.
- Okay. - He could be Jin Kab Yong.
I also think he is an athlete.
When I came across him in the hallway,
he tried to pull a prank on me.
(On his way to the stage)
(This is for you.)
(Bewildered)
Why is he joking around with me?
So I think he could be someone that I know well.
There are two candidates that come to my mind.
The first is Lee Jong Beom. He has a lot of free time these days.
The other is Hong Seong Hun of the Doosan Bears.
- Hong Seong Hun? - Yes.
Have you smelled cresol before? It smells horrible.
I applied some on my head with a cotton bud.
It blocked my pores, so I don't have any hair growing there.
It takes an hour just to get everyone to sit down.
As soon as you finish lunch, it's time for dinner.
It takes forever to feed children.
- He has many talents. - I see.
How was Ranatan's performance?
Ranatan has an attractive tone.
She has a nasal voice.
She ends each verse with a high note in her cute voice.
But I don't think she is a young person.
She seems to be a little older than she appears.
Did you see her poking her cheek just now?
Only people in their late 30s and 40s do things like that.
- The poking gesture? - Yes.
It was like from a commercial on a black-and-white television.
(Ranatan's cosmetics, it will make you pretty.)
If she really is around that age,
she has taken really good care of her vocal cords.
This has nothing to do with smoking.
I'm sorry.
- You're saying she is not a smoker. - Yes.
- That's what you're saying, right? - Yes.
That's what I think.
In my opinion, she is a singer.
You think she is a singer.
Ranatan, could you raise your arms...
and move them sideways?
- You want to see her flexibility? - Yes.
- Would you stretch your arms? - Stretch them out.
Goodness.
- Stretch your arms. - Move them sideways.
Her upper body is almost at a 90 degree angle.
Judging from her flexibility,
- she is someone in her 20s. - In her 20s?
Her body is in her 20s.
- When you consider her, - Her name is Ranatan...
her vocal cords are said to be in good shape.
I think she may be the first voice actress on our show.
- A voice actress? - Because...
her voice is crystal clear.
Also her greetings and gestures...
Hello, I'm Ranatan.
I'm Demetan's friend.
I think the Ranatan mask...
represents her occupation.
Since she's a dubbing artist.
- That's exactly it. - Her job is related to cartoons.
I guess she is an experienced voice actress.
Ranatan wrote down something that she's good at.
She's good at impersonations.
- See? I knew that. - Yes.
Can you imitate all these people?
Our in-house voice actor.
- King of Mask Singer! - That's it.
Won Jin, do you think she is a voice actress?
Since she has a good voice, I get the feeling she works in this field.
See, even he agrees.
Won Jin also thinks she is a voice actress.
But I'm not sure there is a voice actress who sings this well.
- I see. - Yes.
Let's hear her impersonations of other people...
in her natural voice.
(Will she be good?)
Our next stop is Digital Media City Station.
Digital Media City singing room.
That was the announcement voice you hear on the subway.
She'll do one more.
(Expectations are high)
Wow, you must've done this a lot.
You are amazing.
It's the voice from the karaoke machine.
The karaoke machine.
Isn't she amazing?
Here's another startling imitation.
Here comes an English listening comprehension test.
Here we go.
This is the last one.
This is an English listening comprehension test.
An English listening comprehension test.
Question number one.
Listen carefully and choose what the woman will do next.
Oh my, what should I do?
I lost all of my money.
You lost all of your money?
You should check your bag first.
I hate tests.
We'll stop you here. Thank you.
What you heard just now was her real voice.
So she is a voice actress. But who is she?
On my radio show, Lee Yong Shin often comes on as a guest.
- She also attended a song festival. - That's right.
(Lee Yong Shin is a voice actress and a singer.)
(Yeo Eun was once confused for Lee Yong Shin.)
- They're very much alike. - Yes.
Now we'll see the result of round one.
What will become of this man and woman?
Let us see who the winner of this round is.
(The winner of this round will be revealed now.)
(A powerful voice from a large body)
(Will the winner be the epitome of manliness, Pharaoh?)
(Or will it be the one with the cute mask,)
(Ranatan with great emotional range?)
The winner of this round is...
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
- Ranatan! - Pharaoh!
(Energetic power versus deep sensitivity)
(A competition between two extreme opposites)
The winner of...
this competition is...
(Sad Pharaoh with a Big Head)
Pharaoh has won.
(Screaming)
(Joy and sorrow)
(Astonished reactions)
Pharaoh has won.
He beat Ranatan with a score of 56 to 43.
Pharaoh is the winner by 13 votes.
So who is she?
We'll now listen to the song Ranatan prepared for the next round...
and see who she is behind the mask.
Please give her a big round of applause.
She is a singer.
She is an experienced voice actress.
("I'm Sorry But I Hate You" by Jaurim)
(Wow)
(She has a distinct and unique voice.)
(She's really talented.)
(Ranatan's voice has become more seductive.)
(Is she Ju Da In?)
(Whoever she is,)
(her voice is intoxicating.)
(She has a truly attractive voice.)
Now...
please remove your mask...
and let us see who you are.
(Curious)
(The audience members are nervous too.)
Let us see who you are.
Who are you?
This person is...
Let us see who you are.
This person is...
Lee Sun, a voice actress from the children's show, "Pororo".
- She is a voice actress, Lee Sun. - Wow. A voice actress.
She's a voice actress!
(I guessed it correctly!)
(Unbelievable)
I got it.
(Hello!)
(She is Pororo.)
(Amazing)
(Nobody could have imagined...)
(that this is the voice of the voice actress Lee Sun.)
(She sounds good.)
(As if she came into the world for the first time,)
(Lee Sun sings to her heart's content.)
(They give her a round of applause.)
(It is her first time...)
(and she is excited.)
(It was an amazing performance.)
(You are the best.)
She is the dubbing artist of the animation, "Pororo",
Lee Sun.
Hello. I'm Pororo. I got you.
Hello. I'm Pororo.
I'm Ddochi, an African lady ostrich.
I'm a soldier before a woman.
But I can't keep the words of love.
Romeo, please say that you love me if you really do.
Because you are precious.
Enjoy the ice cream cake.
I had a hard time.
(She is working as an actress these days.)
(She has various voices. The dubbing artist, Lee Sun.)
This is fun.
You often sing for animations.
I often sing for the original sound track of animations.
But I have to sing with the voice of a character in the animation.
But today I got to sing with my real voice, so I'm really happy.
I think many children are watching our programme with their parents.
Could you please sing the theme song of "Pororo"?
The song, "I Love To Play All Day".
I love to play all day
Come join me all my friends
Always happy
This is too high-pitched.
This is why it is hard.
It feels like Pororo is standing right next to me.
It is amazing.
I want to hear the voice of Rosa in "Pokemon".
- Wow. - Rosa?
I'm here to stop the destruction of the world.
I'm Rosa and I spread darkness throughout the world.
I love that character.
She also dubbed Ddochi's voice in "Baby Dinosaur Dooly".
That's right.
Why does Gildong always blame us? I don't like that.
That's it.
(This is so fun.)
Today, she finally got to...
sing a song which she loves...
with her real voice...
instead of a cartoon character.
Everyone, please give her a round of applause.
- Thank you. - Well done.
(We will always cheer for you.)
(She leaves the stage energetically.)
- How do you feel? - I feel great.
About 20 years ago,
I used to be a kid who loved to sing everywhere.
But after 3 or 4 years since I became a dubbing artist,
I had a vocal fold nodules so I couldn't even breathe well.
I thought I would lose my voice at that time.
So I had to give up singing.
I always have to overtax my vocal cords as a dubbing artist.
I couldn't do both.
So today, I was very thrilled...
as I got to sing on the stage.
And it took a lot of courage for me to do this.
The result of the first round.
Sad Pharaoh with a Big Head...
beat Lee Sun and goes to the second round.
The second match of the first round.
A serious Sato issues a royal command by singing.
Absolute Power Kim Sato.
(Giddy up!)
(Sato is coming.)
(Laughing)
(I'm Absolute Power Kim Sato!)
He's exercising his power.
(He looks like a corrupt official.)
And his opponent.
(Battle against Absolute Power!)
He sings noir music with his heart.
The Lonely Man Leon.
(He is coming with a flowerpot like Matilda.)
(He is Leon!)
He's holding a flowerpot.
He's funny.
(Giddy up!)
(Let's go, Horsey!)
(The horse is obedient.)
(We are here. Stop running.)
(Taking it off)
(He is coming down the horse easily.)
(What is this?)
(Bubbles squirting!)
(Please don't shoot me.)
They look very excited.
I bet Sato is a comedian and Leon is an idol singer.
Leon's mask looks like Park Sang Min.
Sang Min has relatively short legs.
- Kim Sato is good-looking. - He has a small face.
I think he is a funny man.
(But they can't tell anything from their appearance.)
(Now you will see their real worth.)
("Outsider" by Spring Summer Fall Winter)
(Things are heating up even before they start singing.)
(How would their performance look?)
(Wow)
(His voice sounds vigorous with youth.)
(Who is he?)
(He looks quite comfortable on the stage with a flowerpot.)
(He has good vibration with his voice.)
(The voice of Kim Sato sounds a bit rough but attractive.)
(He's got great technique.)
(He sounds like a rocker.)
(He is good.)
(Leon is showing off his charms as a man.)
(Guitar!)
(Give me that flowerpot.)
(No way!)
(What was that?)
(They are showing some comic performance during the bridge.)
(Laughing)
(They start singing again.)
(They become absorbed in the song again.)
(Man to man)
(It is a match between two tough men.)
(The song reaches its climax.)
(It is amazing.)
(Their pride as a man depends on this match.)
(It was a great performance.)
(Good job. You too.)
(Give me that flowerpot!)
What are they doing?
They are playful.
Both of them look young.
The second match of the first round is over.
It is time to choose a singer who will go to the second round.
Please press the button for the mask singer that you prefer.
The poll is over.
We have two male vocalists. Please introduce yourself first.
Hello.
I'm Absolute Power Kim Sato.
He has a high tone voice.
Hello. I'm the Lonely Man Leon.
Leon just introduced himself.
I wonder how you enjoyed their performance. Yu Young Seok?
One man has a husky voice while the other has a clear voice.
It was a perfect harmony for singing a duet.
I think Leon on the right...
is a singer...
who has released many albums. He's an experienced singer.
- Are you sure that he is a singer? - Yes.
Meanwhile, Sato is...
not a singer from the way I see it.
I don't think he sang as good as a singer.
He has a healthy voice tone.
Only the voice tone is healthy?
- He has the potential... - I see...
Sato is very disappointed now.
He is crying so hard.
Is his voice appropriate for a governor?
- Of course. - He says it is appropriate.
- Citizens will listen to his voice. - I see.
(He jumps in excitement.)
I see.
Sato has issues with his mood.
I have a feeling of who he is.
His reactions...
such as pretending to cry hard and wrestling with Leon...
can't be done without professionalism.
- So I think he is a comedian. - A comedian?
The abbreviation of his name is SHS.
- Do you mean Shin Hyun Seob? - No.
I think Sato is Son Hun Su.
Tell me the truth.
Don't forget to whisper it to me.
(He also appeared in "Show! Music Core".)
(He is a comedian with singing skills.)
- Son Hun Su? - Yes. He is very good at singing.
I think of another comedian who is good at singing.
- Who? - His abbreviations are KIS.
- Kim In Seok? - Yes.
- A comedian, Kim In Seok. - He's quite good at singing.
(He is a funny man second to Son Hun Su.)
(He also released an album as Kim Ppak Soon.)
(He is an all-around comedian.)
(Is it Kim In Seok?)
- Kim In Seok? - He is very good at singing.
- I think Leon is an idol. - You think Leon is an idol?
- Yes. His body is shaped like NE. - Who is NE?
- Yes. I think he is Niel. - Niel of TEEN TOP?
(Niel has a similar body shape with Leon.)
(He is the main vocal of TEEN TOP with a husky voice.)
- He's very similar to Niel. - I see.
I think he is a member of B1A4.
- B1A4? - Yes.
- B1A4? - He's right here.
Is he a member of B1A4? Oh, I didn't know.
- He doesn't seem to know much. - Think before you talk.
Sandeul is a member of B1A4.
- Aside from Sandeul... - Do you mean CNU?
Exactly. I think he is CNU of B1A4.
(CNU is as tall as Leon.)
(He writes and composes songs and acts in musicals.)
(He is a professional idol.)
(Is CNU of B1A4 Leon?)
I think Leon is CNU.
Don't you guys agree?
I am not sure...
but I think he is rather a member of an idol band.
- I think he is Jung Yong Hwa. - Jung Yong Hwa?
(Jung Yong Hwa is the main vocal of an idol rock band, CNBLUE.)
(He sings comfortably in his rock singing style.)
- He's the band's lead vocal, right? - Exactly.
To be honest,
his mask reminds me of...
Kim Yu Gon who produced "Dad! Where Are We Going?".
- Producer Kim Yu Gon? - Yes. It resembles his face.
- Indeed. - They look alike.
Really?
Hello, I'm Kim Yu Gon who produced the show "Dad! Where Are We Going?".
- Hey, Tae Ho! - What is it?
Come on, can't you tell that I dressed nicely?
Look at this cat.
(He provided a lot of laughter to the audience.)
- I admit it. - The mask looks exactly like him.
I agree.
In my opinion, I think Kim Sato...
is a comedian according to his demeanour...
on the stage. He is bright...
and his acting is very natural.
How imprudent of you!
Take him to prison!
You shouldn't be talking without thinking.
I think he is older than you.
- I am sorry. - He is acting like a king.
Twist his chin.
You can't twist a chin.
- He is a corrupt official. - That's right.
His voice tone is like Messi.
Your face is impertinent and you are impertinent in every way.
Should I let her drink poison as a death penalty?
- Order ten cups of poison. - Ten cups of poison.
- Prepare the poison! - That's too much.
- I am sure he is a comedian... - Okay.
who doesn't have a stable position yet.
This feeling just came to me now.
Shin Bong Sun, I order you to drink poison as a death penalty.
I drank some already.
He doesn't appear on any programme regularly...
and he is psychologically chased.
You are impertinent too.
I am just delivering her opinion.
How dare you!
Are you not scared of the heavens?
I'm just delivering their assumptions about your identity.
His words and jokes are...
in a very low level...
if we were to talk about a comedy.
He is like an underdog.
- An underdog? - Yes.
It seems a lot of you think that he is a comedian.
He wrote down that his specialty is...
controlling the traffic...
since he is a governor.
Yes.
I was in charge of traffic control in Mapo Police Station...
a few years ago.
Let me show you how to do hand signals.
Hand signals. Kim Sato's specialty is traffic control.
(Whistling)
(You! Get out of the way! Move your car.)
Move your car.
Move your car!
(Hurry up!)
He's good.
(He's good.)
(The street is going in order because of Sato's hand signals.)
(The end of traffic control)
That was perfect.
(That was good.)
- Ray Yang. - Yes?
What do you think of his hand signals?
I think it was moderate and when he appeared on the stage,
his image stole my heart.
He was good at bringing up the audience's response when he sang.
He has good stage manners.
He is my ideal type.
(Ray Yang)
He is my ideal type.
- I accept your request. - A request?
Now, let me announce...
the result of this round.
Kim Sato with absolute power versus...
Leon with charisma and solitude.
Between the two singers,
who will be the winner of this round?
(Who will advance?)
(Sato has a healthy voice tone and a voice to make people listen.)
(He has a sense of humour and he's also talented in singing.)
(Leon has a husky voice and a perfect vibration skill.)
(He sang like a rocker with composure.)
The winner of this round...
is...
(King of Mask Singer)
Leon! Leon!
(Kim Sato!)
The winner is...
(What is the result?)
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
is...
Leon.
(Leon wins this round.)
Leon is the winner!
(Judges exchange their joy and sorrow.)
Leon has defeated Kim Sato.
The result was 81 to 18.
Leon has won this round with a big lead in votes.
Please give him a round of applause.
(Congratulations.)
(He is coming down the stairs hurriedly.)
(I was so nervous.)
It is time to...
reveal who Kim Sato is.
I think he's in his early 30s.
I think he is a comedian.
I think he is Son Hun Su.
- Kim In Seok? - Yes.
("Christmas in August" by Han Suk Kyu)
(His voice is different from the previous round.)
(His earnest reflection...)
(makes the female judges fall into his song.)
(His low and comfortable voice)
(Kim Sato's soft voice...)
(is melting women's hearts.)
(Who is Kim Sato?)
(He has such an appealing voice.)
Absolute Power Kim Sato,
please take off your mask and reveal yourself.
(Pounding hearts)
This person is...
Wow!
Please reveal yourself.
He is...
an actor with 16 years of experience, Kim Hyung Beom.
(Kim Hyung Beom)
(My goodness)
(Hyung Beom shyly resumes singing.)
(It's good to see you.)
(The man whose honesty is refreshing, Kim Sato.)
(The masked singer was Kim Hyung Beom.)
(He sings with his eyes closed.)
(A Christmas present-like performance)
(You are really cool, Kim Hyung Beom.)
Hello, I'm Kim Hyung Beom. I'm an actor.
Soo Jeong.
It's me.
Let's go out for grilled meat.
What? Do you have money?
"Divorce" is such a serious and dull word.
I don't have smelly feet.
I've seen this before. Who's the designer?
(He was the main character of the musical, "The Great Gatsby".)
I'm Jin Kyung Jin.
- That's right. - People may not know his name,
- but they will recognise his face. - Of course.
Many people are thinking, "I've seen him before."
- He starred in many movies, too. - Yes.
Most of the roles you played were gangsters, right?
Yes. I've played a thug, a mugger, a waiter...
and a bully who picks on his sister.
- Someone without a job. - Yes, that too.
You haven't been cast as a Sato often, right?
This is my first time.
I usually play someone who gets apprehended by a Sato.
- That happened. - I feel your resentment.
Is that why you sang so passionately?
Yes. I gave 110 percent of my energy.
You have a really good voice.
The female panelists practically melted during your solo stage.
- You were so cool. - But you still voted for Leon.
- I'm sorry. - But...
I knew he was an actor. Just look at his body...
and the silhouette of his face.
- He has a really small face. - Yes.
There is something I want to share with you.
Having stood next to Kim Sato,
Leon thought he was Uhm Tae Woong or Yoon Ki Won.
I have heard on many occasions that I look similar to them.
I've also heard Oh Man Seok, Ju Jin Mo, Han Jae Seok...
and the doctor from "Jurassic Park".
Jeff Goldblum.
- The doctor from "Jurassic Park"? - Yes.
Someone recently told me that I look like Kwak Han Gu.
You are an actor with a thousand faces.
Your appearance on the show brought joy to a lot of people here.
What made you decide to compete in this show?
Since I always play evil characters, my two daughters...
don't know what I do for a living.
I don't want to influence them in a bad way.
That's why I decided to compete in this show,
so I could show my daughters that I am an actor.
I'm grateful and content that I was able to make this dream come true.
Your daughters must be watching this show with their mother right now.
You showed us today what a great father you are.
Ray Yang said that you are her ideal type.
Are you okay with two daughters...
What are you trying to say?
When I was in elementary school,
I grew up watching "Soonpoong Clinic".
You are confusing me with Yoon Ki Won.
I was in "Amazing Family".
I wasn't in "Soonpoong Clinic".
- Yoon Ki Won starred in that. - I didn't know.
Are you sure your ideal type isn't Yoon Ki Won?
I'm sorry.
Let's just pretend she said that you are her ideal type.
Let's just forget about the "Soonpoong Clinic" part.
He didn't come here as an actor today. He came as a singer.
Kim Hyung Beom showed us a new side to him today.
Please give him a round of applause.
(We look forward to seeing you again.)
I feel really happy.
I feel as if I was the main character of the story.
The audience looked at me...
with eyes that shined brightly.
They were happy to see me on stage.
So I felt really happy.
Seeing the audience's reaction when I revealed my identity was also fun.
I will continue to work hard as an actor.
I will return everyone's love by doing my best in my future works.
Thank you.
Leon defeated Kim Hyung Beom and advanced to the second round.
Right after the show, we will have a preliminary vote...
in which netizens can vote on who they think will win tonight.
Please participate in the vote.
The first round tonight is a duet song showdown.
The third match will begin now.
(The third match)
The third match of the first round starts now.
She spreads peace and beauty with her voice.
I am Miss Korea.
(Miss Korea)
(Waddling)
(Miss Korea doesn't have the prettiest walk.)
(Surprised)
She's pretty.
Look at that body.
On the opposing side...
is an elegant lady with a refined voice.
The Luxury Countess.
(The Luxury Countess)
(Her outfit and her walk exude elegance.)
(She's pretty.)
(Smiling from ear to ear)
They're both women.
It's a match between women.
- I can't wait. - This is great.
This is more like it.
(He's happy to see female contenders.)
Masked singers, please enter the stage.
It's Miss Korea versus the Countess.
(The Barbie-like Countess)
- Look at her arms. - Goodness.
She is awesome.
I think the Countess...
- She seems young, right? - Yes.
I can tell from the silhouette of her face behind the mask.
(Two women in fancy dresses)
(Behind these beautiful outfits and masks...)
(What kind of voices are these two women hiding?)
("Eve's Warning" by Park Mi Kyung)
(Who could that be?)
(Miss Korea has a soulful voice.)
(She is a good singer.)
(The Countess sings just as well.)
(A fun performance by the two Eves)
(It's a refreshingly good performance.)
(Wow)
They are both great singers.
I love her voice.
(Dancing)
(The Countess flaunts her singing skills.)
(No way, it can't be.)
(She is a really good singer.)
(But there's something familiar about her accent.)
(For now,)
(let's just enjoy the show.)
Bravo!
This is getting more interesting.
(Oh dear)
(Miss Korea made a mistake with the lyrics.)
(It doesn't shake her concentration, she keeps on singing.)
(Dancing)
(The two captivating Eves send a powerful warning.)
(An electrifying performance for everyone)
(Thumbs up!)
- Bravo! - Wow.
- Wow. - That was exciting.
I loved it.
The third match of round one just finished.
Which voice did you prefer?
Whose warning left a deeper impression on your mind?
Press number one for Miss Korea.
Number two for the Luxury Countess.
Whose voice would you like to crown as the king?
The one who gets more votes will advance to the next round.
The voting period is over. Let's greet the audience.
Hello. I'm Miss Korea. Nice to meet you.
All right.
She is as elegant as the real Miss Korea.
Hello.
I'm the Luxury Countess. Glad to meet you.
All right. She said hello in a nice dress.
What did you think, Young Seok?
Miss Korea is really attractive.
She has a husky voice.
It's a voice that only comes from a singer...
who has been singing for a very long time.
Her appearance is sexy and her tone is highly unique.
- It was pleasant to hear. - I see.
The Luxury Countess...
has a smooth voice...
as if it was a well-polished ceramic.
It is impossible to pick one voice over another.
Their voices have opposite characteristics.
- Excuse me, Seong Ju. - Go ahead, Gu Ra.
Look at Miss Korea. Look at how she's leaning on one foot.
I think in Miss Korea's case, she doesn't wear skirts often.
That's why she waddled onto the stage.
- She seems very uncomfortable. - I see.
- You can tell, right? - Yes.
On the other hand, even if she is wearing a dress,
the Luxury Countess walked with steady steps.
My conclusion is that...
- they're in different music genres. - I see.
I think the Countess is someone who does what she is told.
- That's what I think. - Maybe you're swayed by the dress.
No. When I saw how she walked,
she is a well-trained...
- vocalist from a girl group. - You think she is well-trained.
She might be splay-footed.
Splay-footed?
- I think she is a diligent person. - Okay.
Do you want to say something?
(What is splay-footed?)
It means you have deformed feet.
- She must be from abroad. - She could be a foreigner.
- You posed a good question. - She's a foreigner.
- She must be a Korean American. - How could you not know that?
She has to be a Korean American.
Is it impossible not to know that word if you are Korean?
It's impossible not to know the word "splay-foot."
Being splay-footed.
There are many types of being splay-footed.
I just didn't know what kind of splay-foot...
- you were talking about. - Oh, I see.
So, you didn't know what type of splay-foot we were talking about?
Did you study overseas?
Did you study abroad?
- This is fascinating. - She must be from another country.
Gu Ra, you said...
Miss Korea looks awkward wearing the dress.
I think she usually wears jeans...
- and dangling accessories. - Dangling earrings.
That's why she looks really uncomfortable right now.
- I see. - That dress is driving her crazy.
Her pronunciation is so good that she could be Miss USA.
Oh, really?
(Her unique pronunciation sounds a little foreign.)
What did you think, Hyung Seok?
Miss Korea feels like the bad girl type.
That's why she is more comfortable with how she expresses herself.
She also has an American accent in her pronunciation.
- What about the Countess? - The Countess is...
I think I know who she is.
- Do you think you know who she is? - Who do you think she is?
- Yes, I feel like I know her. - She does remind you of someone.
I think I know her and at the same time, I think I don't.
What?
- He's unsure of himself. - Oh, I see.
- Maybe he studied abroad too. - It means he doesn't know.
As far as we know,
- Ray Yang was... - Yes?
Miss Busan in 2007. Is that correct?
Yes, that's true. That was eight years ago.
So, when you saw Miss Korea...
and her posture, what was your impression?
She has a gorgeous body.
- Her body line... - She has a supermodel's body.
Do you want me to mention that you are a supermodel?
Yes, please remind everyone that I'm a supermodel.
- Kim Sae Rom is a supermodel. - Thank you.
And Ray Yang was Miss Busan.
What is the most classic pose for Miss Korea?
- A classic pose? - Would you please show us?
- I'll stand up. - The pose for Miss Korea.
In the past, when you said hello,
you needed to slightly bend your knees and say hello.
But these day, you just do a power walk.
- You turn around and keep walking. - I see.
- On top of that... - Yes, Sae Rom.
Show us a supermodel's pose.
Supermodels would add a little toughness and class to it.
- They would swing their arms. - I see.
- They would make these poses. - I see. There's a difference.
Yes, there's a slight difference.
Excuse me, Miss Korea.
(Testing the microphone)
- Yes? - Don't hit the microphone.
Please show us a model's pose.
(Awkward)
- That was really awkward. - Yes.
- It was awkward. - Yes, right.
- She is standing so awkwardly. - Could you do another Miss Korea...
Sae Rom, is she closer to how a supermodel would pose?
That's different from how a supermodel would do it.
- She's not a supermodel. - Also, she tends to...
She tends to move out of the spotlight.
- Look, she is moving away from you. - You're right.
- Why are you hitting it again? - Can you hear me?
- Actually... - Yes?
I'm a little claustrophobic.
- You're claustrophobic? - Yes.
- You're afraid of confined places? - Yes.
- Well... - I mean...
You didn't tell us about this before.
What are you talking about in this wide space?
It is open on all sides.
This is MBC's biggest studio hall.
(Really?)
She just realised how big this place is.
Please don't laugh at her. I understand her.
- I have a similar panic disorder. - It can happen.
If you feel uncomfortable, you can move to the side.
- Just move to the side. - It seems...
- She seems to be uncomfortable. - Just move to the side.
- You can move to the side. - Yes.
All right, but would you mind wearing your gloves properly?
They are too loose on your fingers.
- Because of her claustrophobia. - Her fingers need space too.
All right.
Please stop hitting the microphone.
Why do you keep hitting the microphone?
All right.
(She can't stop laughing.)
I think she has bipolar disorder.
How did you find their performance, Hyun Cheol?
I think Miss Korea may have...
a boyish personality.
The Countess is...
She is just plain weird.
- Please listen when he's speaking. - Is there something wrong?
Please let me know if you have any problems.
- She's a bit strange. - They're trying to assess you.
Please pay attention to the panel.
She just lost a little focus.
- Please understand her. - I really like those two.
All right. Please continue.
- I think she likes alcohol. - Who?
Miss Korea.
- You think she likes alcohol? - Yes.
- You think she likes drinking? - I think she has that personality.
She seems to think otherwise.
On the other hand, I think the Countess doesn't drink at all.
Just speak. Stop hitting the microphone!
You'll break the eardrums of the sound director.
- You're wrong. - She said "You're wrong".
Another thing I noticed is that she shakes her hands when she sings.
Considering her hand movements,
she may be a hip-hop musician or a rapper.
- Did her movements seem like that? - Yes.
And both of them...
are in their late 20s or early 30s.
Who do you think is older?
- It's most likely... - Which one is in her early 30s?
What in the world is she doing?
She's having a hard time breathing.
You shouldn't have tied the string at the back of your mask.
We had already customised the mask for you.
It's hard for me to breathe as well.
Just tell me what's wrong. Your microphone works fine.
You don't have to tap me.
You have your own microphone. You don't have to tap me.
Your microphone is working. Stop hitting it.
- What? - My mask isn't tight enough.
Please contact Hwang Jae Keun. He made the masks.
- Don't get angry at me. - Please tighten my mask.
Call Jae Keun right now. Ask him to come here.
- Call Jae Keun. - We need to do something.
- It's getting out of control. - From what I can tell,
this one hates tightness...
- and this person here is greedy. - Why do you say that?
She has a big face.
- But she tried to cover it up... - That's not it.
- by tightening the mask. - Yes.
My face is smaller than yours, Gu Ra.
She says her face is smaller than yours.
A woman shouldn't have a bigger face than mine.
What's wrong with a big face?
What are you talking about?
She says the size of a face doesn't matter if you sing well.
- I get what you are saying. - You are awesome.
Both of you are awesome.
The two like each other.
(Your voice is all that matters to be crowned as king.)
All right.
Welcome to the stage. Nice to meet you.
- So, what happened is... - Jae Keun.
- Please fix their masks. - Yes.
Miss Korea feels like she is suffering from claustrophobia.
- She just likes to complain. - How about the Countess, then?
- She says she can't breathe either. - Her face is too big.
- She adjusted her own mask. - Please tighten it for me.
I can barely see.
She can barely see.
You can hardly see?
I will adjust the mask. It's not a big problem.
- Don't make a big deal out of it. - He sounds like a doctor.
He said it's not a big deal. Get an injection and that's it.
That's what it sounded like. Then please adjust the mask.
(Running)
Don't discuss anything in private.
You know how I feel, right?
I know who you are.
I know who you are, too.
I could tell who you were just by hearing you breathe.
- I think it's fine now. - Okay.
- That was hard. Thank you. - Thank you.
Okay, let's get back on track.
We have two peculiar women for the third match.
I haven't met a masked singer like these two before.
They even called Jae Keun onto the stage to fix their masks.
Miss Korea, you're not fluent in Korean, right?
No, I'm fluent.
(She can't hide her unique pronunciation and intonation.)
She speaks Korean well.
She understands everything.
Finally Chang Ryeol, could you sum up your opinion for us?
Here is what I think.
Miss Korea is Jessi.
She's Jessi.
What did he say?
(For some reason, everyone is cheering.)
Yes. She is Jessi.
(She is a rapper and a vocalist.)
(The tough girl Jessi is Miss Korea?)
- Me? - It's nice to see you.
Actually, I am Jessi.
Competition!
- Excuse me. - What are you two doing?
What are you two doing?
To the audio director, I'm sorry. She shouldn't be doing that.
Okay. This round is a bit of a mess.
I will now announce the result of the third match of the first round.
Whose voice were you attracted to more?
I will announce the winner of this match.
(I will announce the winner of this match.)
(Their duet song "Eve's Warning" had everyone jumping in their seats.)
(The soulful voice of Miss Korea...)
(and the powerful voice of the Countess.)
Who will move on to...
the next round?
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
(The contrasting and complementary voices of these two singers)
Miss Korea!
(Whose voice did the audience like better?)
The Countess!
The third winner of the first round is...
Who is the winner?
The winner is the Countess.
(Oh my goodness)
(Wow)
(Congratulations!)
The Luxury Countess beats Miss Korea...
and moves on to the next round.
The votes were 68 to 31.
(They're hugging now.)
She won by more than 30 votes.
They are showing off their friendship.
They are chatting amongst themselves now.
The Countess, please get ready for the next round.
- Please go to the waiting room. - Thank you.
Please give her a round of applause.
- Thank you for singing. - I'm a big fan.
I see.
(The Countess is leaving the stage crying.)
It was fun. It was really exciting.
I was graceful, wasn't I?
Is she really who everyone thinks she is?
Or is she someone entirely different?
She will reveal herself after singing her final song of the night.
Let's hear her solo performance.
Please give her a round of applause.
I'm sure she is a Korean American.
She may be a hip-hop musician or a rapper.
- Your Korean isn't fluent, right? - No, I'm fluent.
- She can speak Korean well. - Miss Korea is Jessi.
(Is she really Jessi?)
("Sea Of Love" by Fly To The Sky)
(Yes!)
(They're going wild.)
(It is amazing.)
(She's got an attractive husky voice.)
(She has a charismatic voice.)
(She has a rich soulful voice.)
(She is great.)
(Her sexy and powerful voice)
(Who is she?)
Miss Korea,
please take off your mask...
and reveal yourself.
This person is...
Miss Korea will now reveal herself.
She is...
the hip-hop icon, Jessi of Lucky J.
(Jessi is here.)
(Hey, it's sexy Jessi!)
She is truly attractive.
(They could feel her emotions and charisma through the mask.)
(Jessi is enjoying herself on the stage.)
(She takes it off.)
(She is Jessi.)
It turns out Miss Korea...
was Jessi.
Cadet petty officer.
Cadet pretty...
I tried to do my best.
(She gained popularity through a rap audition programme.)
(Jessi is the vocalist of the group, Lucky J.)
(Jessi is a musician who can rap and sing.)
Please say hello to the audience.
How did you know it was me?
How?
- I barely said a word. - I know.
I don't understand it, either. How did they know?
But most of them knew it was you.
From the beginning, she sounded like this.
I think it is hard...
to hide her voice.
It is not easy for her to conceal who she is.
- By the way... - Jessi.
I have a question. Why did you keep hitting the microphone?
Well...
When I was at the waiting room, people were saying...
"That's Jessi."
So the producer told me...
to tap the microphone once in a while.
- I did it to make sure. - If your voice was altered?
There was one thing I was happy about.
I was wearing a mask,
but many people recognised me...
from the tone of my voice. It made me feel really happy.
- You were happy about it? - People usually compare...
singers to other singers.
But it feels like I have my own colour.
So I'd like to thank all of you for recognising me.
I will keep on trying my best.
Please give her a round of applause.
(We look forward to seeing Jessi in the future with a mature voice.)
(She is brave.)
How did they know it was me?
Is my voice that unique?
To be honest, I'm not satisfied.
I could have done better.
But this is not the end.
Mr Producer, I'm Jessi.
Please call me back again.
I will shave my head if it's necessary.
I'll whiten my skin tone too.
I will work on my Korean as well.
I can hide my identity.
If you give me one more chance,
I will do better next time.
(I want to come out again.)
Luxury Countess advances to the second round after beating Jessi.
Duet competition in the first round.
Let me introduce you to our next contenders!
Fourth match of round one.
Emotional penguin who came from the land of ice.
A gentleman of the South Pole, Penguin Man.
(A gentleman of the South Pole, Penguin Man)
(He is walking with faltering steps.)
(He can hardly walk because of his huge costume.)
He is so cute.
(He is so cute.)
Against Penguin Man, he is a man dreaming of escape and freedom.
Successful Runaway, Papillon
(He is coming up on the stage as if he's being escorted to prison.)
(Let me go! Let go!)
He is trying to escape from them.
(You are making me starve to death!)
(He is very aggressive due to a long imprisoned life.)
Two of them are both tall.
Penguin has long legs.
- That's true. - His calves are very long.
They look like they are good at singing.
(Penguin Man seems to have a big sound box.)
(Papillon seems to be relaxed and seasoned.)
(You can look forward to their performance.)
("Although My Heart Aches" by Fly To The Sky)
(His voice is totally different from his cute appearance.)
His voice is so charming.
(Who is this person?)
(Papillon has a thin and a strong voice.)
(I think he has some age.)
(His unique way of singing can be a big clue.)
(Puzzled)
Most of them reveal themselves in singing high notes...
but I can't think of anyone even after listening to his high notes.
I have no idea who they are.
Their voices are charming.
(They both have a great voice!)
(I have no clue.)
(He sings quietly with his soft and sweet voice.)
(He sings as if he is talking to someone.)
(First time listening to Penguin Man's high notes)
(His firm singing ability shines more in high notes.)
(She is in love.)
(I think I've heard his voice before.)
(Finishing the song with a perfect harmony)
Well done.
(She is clapping like a seal even before the song ends.)
I think I know who the person on the left is.
It's hard to say.
(Penguin and Papillon's match didn't seem to go well...)
(but they have made a fantastic harmony together.)
Now the final match of the first round has ended.
Please vote for the person to advance to the next round.
Who will be the person...
to escape for the second round?
The voting is finished.
- Gu Ra, wasn't this tough? - Yes.
It was a tough competition and I think both are singers...
only with different activity period.
I think Papillon is a singer who...
has been a professional for about 20 years since 1990 or 2000.
- Do you mean Papillon? - Yes.
- Twenty years of experience? - Yes. His skills tell me that.
I saw his toes and toenails through a telescope.
Did you see his bare feet?
- Those rambling behaviours, - Yes.
in my opinion...
Isn't he Hong Seo Beom?
(They are not even amazed.)
I think he has been a professional singer...
for a long time, but he has been away from the public recently.
- That is my careful guess. - All right.
I think he isn't an aged man because...
looking at his neck, he has such soft skin.
He doesn't have any wrinkles...
and he has inborn white skin.
The condition of his skin tells me that he is not an aged person.
Ji Won, do you have any ideas?
I can only differentiate their gender right now.
That they are men. He has no idea.
- I have no idea at all. - Okay.
Hyun Cheol, we want to listen to your opinion...
since you analyse people's ages well by listening to their voices.
In Penguin Man's case,
his voice was shaking a little during the quiet part of the song.
(His voice was shaking in the beginning because he was nervous.)
But when he made an ad-lib in the middle of the song,
the notes were always accurate.
(After getting used to singing on the stage,)
(he showed accuracy in his voice like a machine.)
Not even a single note was missed.
So he has high singing ability...
and he is good at singing various genres.
He has a perfect sense of rhythm.
- Is he good at dance songs as well? - Yes. I am sure.
- You think so? - Yes.
About Papillon, the reason why I think he is aged is that...
- he uses a lot of slurs. - Slur?
Yes. He often connects two different notes together.
(Slur: to connect and sing different notes with different pitches.)
I think he has some age because he uses a lot of slurs.
Also, I think he hurt his vocal cords in the past.
- Really? - Yes.
I heard a sound of uneven vocal cords.
He is very sharp.
He's like a doctor.
Is that why he's dressed like a patient?
Is that so? Maybe he's not Papillon.
I think he experienced vocal fold nodule or hurt his vocal cords...
and I don't think he's from Seoul.
- You mean his hometown? - Yes.
- He has an accent. - I see.
I don't think his hometown is Seoul.
He predicts that Papillon has some age, damaged his vocal cords...
and isn't from Seoul.
- You should go back. - Let me ask you something.
Ask him if he really hurt his vocal cords.
Did you really hurt your vocal cords in the past?
(It is a very important question to determine his professionalism.)
(He seems very confident.)
Never.
Oh I see.
So his predictions were wrong.
My voice may have become hoarse because I almost...
fell asleep for coming out too late.
I was right about his hoarse voice.
My hometown is Seoul.
- He just guessed. - All his predictions were wrong.
His predictions haven't been accurate so far.
- What do you think, Chang Ryeol? - I think Papillon is...
a more experienced singer than me.
I am not sure if you remember, but there was a song called...
- "Arabian Night". - Oh, I remember.
- Yes. "Arabian Night". - A pounding heart like this?
A pounding heart like this.
I think he is Kim Jun Seon who sang "Arabian Night".
(The song was a hit for its unique introduction and rhythm.)
("Arabian Night" was a popular song in 1992.)
I think he's older than me based on his singing style and behaviour.
Let us listen to Hyung Seok's opinion.
I think Papillon is not a professional singer.
- What? Papillon is not a singer? - Yes.
- He is not a singer. - How come?
- Yes because... - That sounds like utter nonsense.
Utter nonsense?
That sounds like utter nonsense.
The contrast between his soft and loud voice is too transparent.
Usually, when singers become aware of their voice,
they balance the volume of their voice by adjusting...
the distance of the microphone. But he didn't do that.
So I think he is an actor who...
- likes to sing and is good at it. - You think he is an actor.
As for Penguin Man, I'm sure he is a singer.
His charm lies in...
his sensitive baritone voice. He is an experienced singer.
From his vibration and tone,
I think he is an idol singer who also sings in musicals.
An idol singer who also sings in musicals.
The panel is struggling with their deductions.
You have said that Papillon seems old,
but one of his talent lies in his strength.
He said he can do push-ups with me on his back.
That's what he wrote.
I weigh more than 70 kilogrammes.
I don't know if he would be okay.
Would you be okay?
(How many push-ups can he do with 70 kilogrammes on his back?)
I'll sit on your back now.
(Falling)
(Thrown off)
This is an old-fashioned comedy.
This is a typical old-fashioned comedy.
- In my opinion, - That was so funny.
- that was a prank for Kim Seong Ju. - How old-fashioned.
Did you plan for that to happen? I almost had a concussion.
A concussion? Give me a break.
- I was startled. - Don't be a cry-baby.
- From how I see it, - Yes?
- I think he is really kind. - Who?
- He is nice. - Who? Penguin Man?
Even though nothing fun is going on,
he just keeps quiet without doing anything.
He just stands there.
(There is a ruckus right next to him.)
(But he stands still like a statue.)
He is very nice. Most people...
- would try to butt in. - He is nice.
I bet he is from a strict agency.
What is it, Ji Won? Use your microphone.
You are right.
- Eun Ji Won? - What is it?
Do you have a guess?
- Do you have a guess? - His initials are SYJ.
- SYJ? - He never joins a conversation.
- He is like that. - From 4Men.
Shin Yong Jae?
(One of the most talented R&B vocalist)
(Penguin Man's singing style and quiet personality point to him.)
Penguin Man's singing style and quiet personality...
- are very similar to his. - It's possible to distort...
one's style of singing in the first round.
But it's impossible to hide one's personality.
Shin Yong Jae does whatever he is asked to do.
If you tell him to hold a fish, he will hold on to it until the end.
He never joins a conversation with others.
He is really nice. He is tall, too.
Let's see if they guessed correctly. We will now reveal the winner...
of the duet competition.
(Soulful baritone voice and steady vibration)
(Will it be Penguin Man with good singing skills?)
(Beautiful voice and unrestrained style of singing)
(Will it be the unique vocalist, Papillon?)
Who will win and move on to the next round?
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
The winner is...
The winner of this round...
will face Countess in the semifinals.
Who is the winner?
(King of Mask Singer)
Penguin Man wins.
The gentleman of South Pole, Penguin Man defeats Papillon.
The score was 64 to 35.
Unfortunately,
Papillon won't be competing in the next round.
I think I won thanks to this fish.
This is tiring.
Who could he be? He will reveal his identity as he sings the song...
he has prepared for the next stage. Give him a round of applause.
(He'll reveal himself after his song.)
- All we have to do is win, right? - Let's eat some food.
(They engage in live fire exercises.)
- It's going to take longer. - How can that be?
There's no hope for me.
(Hardcore training will be approaching.)
(Papillon's identity is a mystery.)
He is a talented singer.
I think he is an actor who likes to sing and is good at it.
I think he is Kim Jun Seon.
("The Pierrot Laughs at Us" by Kim Wan Sun)
(He starts off on a refreshing note.)
(He is not Kim Jun Seon.)
(I have no idea who he is.)
(This is fun.)
(His unique style of singing shines when he sings alone.)
Papillon, take off your mask and reveal your identity.
He is...
a singer with 25 years of experience, Lee Beom Hak.
He is a singer with 25 years of experience, Lee Beom Hak.
(They look so shocked.)
Hello.
(Papillon is Lee Beom Hak?)
(The singer of the hit song in 1991, "A Breakup Unlike A Breakup")
(Even though he was new, he set many records.)
(His song was remade by SG Wannabe in 2006.)
(His song contains sentimentality that transcends generations.)
(A singer who dominated an era, Lee Beom Hak)
(He still has a handsome face and a beautiful voice.)
Unbelievable.
(She looks like a fan.)
(It's Lee Beom Hak.)
(His groove transcends generations.)
(Everyone greets him with a dance.)
(His passion and singing skills haven't aged a day.)
(His explosive energy excites the audience.)
Hello. It's been a while.
I'm Lee Beom Hak. It's nice to meet you all.
(His voice sounds different when he is not singing.)
You are well-known for your song, "A Breakup Unlike A Breakup",
but I associate you more with "Quiz Academy".
Do you remember the prank?
- It happened at MBC. - That's right.
We have a guest singer we would like to introduce.
He is a newly debuted singer, Lee Beom A.
GNP stands for gross national product.
Then what does a drop in a bucket mean?
(He was asked to give ridiculous questions.)
Guess what animal this action represents.
All right.
(The prank became a hot issue.)
It was a prank. Thank you for your participation.
You were everyone's idol back then.
"A Breakup Unlike A Breakup" became very popular...
and you got the limelight as a sentimental balladeer.
Many people have heard of SG Wannabe or FT ISLAND's...
versions of the song.
I sang at SG Wannabe's concert when they released the song.
There were a lot of high school girls in the front row.
They said, "Why is he singing SG Wannabe's song?"
- I could hear them. - It was originally your song.
I couldn't go, "This is my song" in the middle of singing.
It was a very fun...
and wonderful experience.
- Hyung Seok was tempted to leave. - Why?
He felt bad because all his predictions were wrong.
(Stop it.)
Yes. He must feel embarrassed.
- I said he would be mortified. - I see.
I'm sorry.
He has come back to us just as he was before.
Please support Lee Beom Hak. Thank you.
(He escapes the stage with a light heart.)
It's bittersweet.
That's how I feel right now.
When I'm not on TV, people think I'm not working.
But I've been busy doing concerts.
There are not many chances for me...
to sing on public television.
I was able to sing an entire song wholeheartedly on TV today.
And this programme is for all age groups.
I had an amazing time.
Please keep watching King of Mask Singer.
