Last week,
they competed without sparing themselves.
There were duet performances that satisfied the senses...
and fun and twists that was beyond our expectations.
However, there is an even bigger plot twist waiting for us.
With upgraded singing muscles,
four competitors challenge the throne.
The Alchemist of Music, Tarot Man.
My Name is Bread Lover.
Devoted Son, Carnation Man.
Do the Seal Clap for Me, Baby Seal.
And...
she has a singing ability that knows no end...
and an explosive emotion that gives chills.
The 53rd and 54th Queen of Mask Singer...
successfully won her first defense match.
Spirited Lady on the Ninth Rank.
According to the online mobile survey, netizens voted...
Spirited Lady as the next King of Mask Singer...
and Devoted Son, Carnation Man...
came in second place.
(It was beyond our imagination. A performance that was like art.)
(Did it bring Kai to tears?)
(It is a wicked voice.)
Will she be able to protect it, or will she lose it?
The challengers have unexpected talent...
and Spirited Lady has prepared a strong defense.
The final dash to the throne will start now.
(Mysterious Music Show, King of Mask Singer)
The first match of the semi-finals.
He beat Winner's Kang Seung Yoon.
He was born with the fate to sing. Having a sweet voice is his fortune.
The Alchemist of Music, Tarot Man.
(The Alchemist of Music, Tarot Man)
(The Alchemist is ready for action.)
(Try to predict Tarot Man's fate.)
(You can do it!)
Bling bling.
My eyes hurt. He's so shiny.
Who are you Tarot Man?
I think today's highlight is here.
His voice is really nice.
(He has a sweet voice and an innate sense of rhythm.)
(Tarot Man's musical sense shined brightly.)
(It was as though we were under a spell from a sorcerer.)
(He has an addicting voice.)
(He is a person with a lot of experience.)
(His voice is excellent for jazz or rhythm and blues.)
(However, something about his performance was awkward.)
(His thighs are very thick.)
(He has an amazing singing skill.)
(Athlete?)
(His specialty was making dinosaur sounds.)
(He has an innocent and silly charm. Who is Tarot Man?)
(The wheel of fate has begun to turn.)
(Everyone is waiting quietly for Tarot Man.)
Who is...
going to come out today...
to challenge me for the throne?
(He's here to go up against the queen, Spirited Lady.)
(What is the secret card Tarot Man has prepared today?)
("Malri Flower" by Lee Seung Chul)
- It's Malri Flower. - This song!
Malri Flower.
This song is hard.
(Lee Seung Chul's "Malri Flower" is known for its high notes.)
(In the darkness, you can see it sparkling.)
(Tarot Man's clear voice)
(You can feel the deep reverberation and slight trembles.)
(A piercing longing that makes you feel detached.)
(He touches the emotions carefully.)
(His voice has both softness and manliness.)
(There is a solemnness we didn't see in Round One.)
(It soothes the pains of each person.)
(A strong and powerful voice that pierces the ears.)
(Sighing)
(A sad feeling that is in each individual line of the song.)
(He's an unusual contender.)
(The number one cause for alarm. Who are you?)
(He's really good.)
(Crying)
(Tarot man's deep emotions have bloomed through "Malri Flower.")
(House Band)
(As the song progresses, his emotions become fuller.)
(The pieces of memories have broken apart into many pieces.)
(A longing that makes the heart emotional)
(His song strongly vibrates through the heart.)
(He has an emotional voice that has a great appeal.)
(So nice)
(Tarot Man's "Malri Flower" promises love though song.)
(It's so ardent.)
He sounds like he could be in a band.
I have goosebumps.
His singing style is...
He has a similar singing style to Lee Seung Chul.
Up against him is...
a female masked singer who beat comedian Shin Bo Ra.
She has a sweet voice...
that captivates people's eyes and ears.
My Name is Bread Lover.
(It's a tough and long journey to be King of Mask Singer.)
(Please support Bread Lover.)
(Go)
Here she is.
Cheer up. Good luck.
I'll be looking forward to your song.
(I'll be looking forward to your song.)
(Her singing makes people feel so refreshed.)
(She has a powerful voice that fascinates their hearts.)
(Without the injury, she would have dominated the stage.)
(She's as good as Lee So Ra and No Young Sim who like to sit.)
(She is a real singer who can make us cheerful though she is sitting.)
(She set fire on Round Two.)
(Bread Lover will heat up the stage now...)
(and everyone is looking forward to her song.)
(To threaten her competitor Tarot Man,)
(what kind of a performance did she prepare?)
("That Person Back Then" by Shim Soo Bong)
(She hums.)
She is great.
(A sad and sorrowful voice)
She makes me crazy.
(She has a soulful voice with a lot of experience.)
(She is so relaxed and controls the rhythm.)
(With her low and deep voice...)
(she sings as if she throws out her sadness.)
(He is amazed.)
(Her delicate and sad voice...)
(fills the big stage.)
(Her voice is full of longing.)
This makes me crazy.
(Is he happy somewhere else now?)
(Whatever she does, she can't forget...)
(The person back then)
(Bravo)
(She adds sad emotions of jazz on to the original song.)
(Soulful scat full of groove)
(It's like a jazz performance...)
(with her mature and powerful voice and breathing.)
(I like it.)
(She takes out the memories in people's hearts...)
(with her voice full of longing.)
(Now, I should forget that person back then)
(Swaying)
(Powerful and bluesy improvisation)
(The ultimately sad and soulful song, "That Person From Back Then")
(They are enthusiastic.)
That was awesome.
This is the best.
She is the queen of music.
It was like singing in a bar while sitting.
- In a jazz bar. - I should've drunk some.
- Something you usually drink? - Yes.
- I'll treat them at that table. - Okay.
(But who should I choose?)
The first match of Round Two is over now.
Young Seok, what's your opinion?
Bread Lover, you're supposed to bake bread at a bakery,
but why are you baking art?
Is she baking art?
(Jazz, soul music, trot, pop)
She used jazz, soul music,
trot, and pop...
as her firewood to bake the bread of art.
(She used every genre to bake bread.)
Her voice is full of talents.
So even with just one note,
she can touch us more than with one hundred notes
Tarot Man's voice color itself is...
as good as hers.
His voice is sophisticated and makes us relate to him.
It was like malri flowers that bloomed in a city.
(It was like white malri flowers...)
(that bloomed among skyscrapers.)
(He has a clear voice that purifies people's hearts.)
Maybe thanks to his thick thighs,
his song's center of gravity is well balanced...
and everything is controlled very well.
- So his song is flexible... - Okay.
and stable as well.
I see. Jang Hyuk, what's your opinion?
I think Bread Lover...
- was like scrubbing our skins. - Scrubbing?
- She scrubs all the dead skins... - All of them?
and relieves all the stress we had so far.
It was like I was watching an old great performance.
Like a black-and-white film.
- From back then. - That's what I felt.
It sounded old and made us reminisce.
- Like a black-and white film? - Exactly. It was very classic.
- It covers a wide range of ages. - Her voice does.
Talking about Tarot Man,
it's really hard to copy Lee Seung Chul's unique way...
of breathing and singing.
But he hit the high notes so easily.
Others would have squeezed out the high notes,
but he hit them so easily like noodles come out from a machine.
And he has a golden proportion.
Including techniques, high notes, middle notes, low notes,
emotions, and delivery skills,
everything is so well-balanced...
and has a healthy proportion.
- I see. - Thank you.
Danny, what do you think of the emotional expressions...
and performances of the two contestants?
First, I think Tarot Man's voice is so good.
Even though I'm a man,
I'm attracted to his voice.
- His voice is comfortable. - If I were a girl,
I would want to listen to his voice before I go to bed.
And Bread Lover's song was not easy to sing,
but she had eye contact with the audience...
and shared her emotions with them. That means she was relaxed.
It's what you can't do if you don't have enough experience on stage.
Considering that, I believe she has a lot of experience of performances.
I thought she was amazing.
I see. What about you, Hyun Chul?
Bread Lover totally...
took control of the stage even though she was sitting.
It was awesome.
And at the finale of her song...
(What are they doing?)
- That was great. - What are you doing now?
Like Jennifer Beals' "What a Feeling"...
in the old movie, "Flashdance".
There is a scene that water falls down on Jennifer Beals.
And I was reminded of that scene.
(It was like the scene in the movie.)
(All the listeners were wet with the emotions.)
It was really wonderful.
Okay. It was a handicap though.
I think the handicap...
changed into an advantage at that point.
So if she wins,
there will be many injured people in the future. That may happen.
She says she didn't intend that.
- Don't get her wrong. - Although she didn't intend it.
And I was impressed by Tarot Man's performance too.
In fact, I chose Kang Seung Yoon of WINNER in Round One.
But after listening to Tarot Man singing today,
I realized the audience are right...
and Seung Yoon had to lose.
(Seung Yoon had to lose.)
- You're mean to him. - Seung Yoon sang very well,
but considering the experienced skills,
I realized he was not a match for Tarot Man.
Are you saying that the audience...
- was right? - Yes. They are great.
Right.
Actually, I have an idea.
- You have an idea. - That's very sudden.
You're just protecting him.
- I'm a bit embarrassed to say it. - All right.
- During the break, - Yes.
I scolded Seung Woo.
- Did you? - I scolded him for being selfish.
- After Round One. - Yes.
So I...
- Did you get it? - I got it.
- But you threatened him. - Yes.
He strangled Seung woo.
- Yes. - Bong Sun can never guess it.
She can never know it.
But there's a twist here.
I think I have an idea who Bread Lover might be.
- Do you know who she is? - I think so.
I see. You must know her.
- I really like her. - All right.
I dare say...
she is Little Yang Hee Eun.
Little Yang Hee Eun.
Yes. That's how charismatic she is.
I see. People are getting stirred.
On Round Two,
they will showcase their specialties.
Last week,
some people saw his big thighs and suspected him to be...
an athlete.
It's certain that he's a strong man.
He's going to show us breaking tiles.
He's going to break some tiles.
He will start with 10 tiles.
- Then he'll try 15 next. - Breaking tiles...
- isn't easy. - Right.
It's even harder with a mask on.
He's going to smash 10 tiles.
Here we go.
(He smashes the tiles.)
(Not everything broke.)
Wait.
What just happened?
- What just happened? - How many broke?
He smashed seven.
Seven.
(They laugh.)
He's clapping his hands.
He's satisfied.
We were worried that he'd be disappointed.
- But he's very satisfied. - He's satisfied.
- He started clapping first. - He's satisfied.
Who's going to smash the 15 tiles?
Among the celebrity panelists,
- can anyone give it a go? - Joon.
- Joon. Come on. - He might be able to.
I can't do things like that.
Come on, Joon.
- Come on. - You can.
All right.
You were Yamcha of "Dragonball Revolution".
- I know. - He's the only one.
Right. He's becoming a daddy next month.
(Daddy Joon will take the challenge.)
His muscles are...
His muscles are unbelievable.
He will try to break 15 tiles.
Joon will be representing the celebrity panelists.
His muscles are standing out.
Joon.
Will he be able to break 15 tiles?
Be quiet!
(Goodness.)
(It's almost the same.)
(No way.)
(Oh, man.)
He's really bad.
He just has a fit body.
- His body deluded us. - I think I can do better.
He's actually quite good.
- Tarot Man is really good. - Joon smashed three tiles.
You can go back to your seat.
- Go back to your seat. - I am sorry.
(You still did a good job, Joon.)
Now, Bread Lover will show her specialty.
She will impersonate a character from "Simpsons",
Marge Simpson.
(Can she mimic this voice?)
(Groaning)
Homer, I made you a killer lasagne.
(Groaning again)
I told you 20 times and you never listen.
Isn't she good?
Next, she will impersonate the character Go Eun Ae...
from "Run Ha Ni".
Doo Kae, Doo Kae.
Doo Kae only likes Ha Ni. He doesn't like me.
(She cries.)
That's it.
Can you impersonate Shin Moon Sun?
(She gives it a try.)
Goal! Goal!
She's very talented.
Remember that you just heard her real voice.
Bong Sun, is she really Little Yang Hee Eun?
Yes. That's what I think.
I searched online, but I couldn't find anyone.
It's just my personal opinion.
I guess you searched about who it might be.
I searched for it on Naver, but I couldn't find anything.
Who is Little Yang Hee Eun?
(It's so fun to tease him.)
You must be bothered.
That's how he really feels.
Bong Sun gave a wrong information. She is not Little Yang Hee Eun.
Tarot Man,
- can you... - I know...
that he can whisper very well.
- Can he? - Yes.
Can he whisper very well?
- Yes. - He's the best in the world.
I see. Can you whisper for us?
Let's see if it's really you.
(He whispers.)
(He's pretty good.)
(He's good.)
(I whisper the best.)
That's it.
(He's actually very good.)
He's almost as good as an instrument.
By the way, Joon...
whispers strangely well too.
- Is that right? - Yes.
He strangely whispers well.
You get associated with Tarot Man a lot.
The way he does it is very strange.
- Is that right? - Yes.
Joon, can you show us your strange whistle?
(He whistles without moving his mouth.)
(He turns into a spectacle.)
Is he whistling right now?
(That's fascinating.)
How can he whistle like that?
(I'm sure you've never seen someone else doing it.)
It's nice that he's smiling while doing that.
(Laughing)
He whistles while smiling.
- Right. That's enough. Stop. - Stop.
- Stop now. - That's enough.
I want to keep doing it.
You can stop now.
Now, I will announce the result...
of the first match of Round Two.
With a voice that captures women's hearts,
Tarot Man put on an emotional performance.
Bread Lover showcased her unique tone of voice...
and sensibility.
Who will be the winner and move onto the next round?
Please reveal the results.
(He's got a beautiful voice that mesmerizes us.)
(His emotion touches our hearts.)
(Tarot Man heals our wounds.)
(She sang the jazz rhythm with sensibility.)
(Her unique voice is filled with resentments.)
(Bread Lover is the charismatic vocalist with sensitivity.)
Between Tarot Man and Bread Lover,
which masked singer will move onto...
Round Three?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
- Who is it? - Who is it?
(Is it Tarot Man who can read the panelists' minds?)
(Or is it Bread Lover who lures us with her sweetness?)
(The result can't be predicted.)
(It's the competition between a male and a female vocalist.)
The winner of this round is...
(My Name Is Bread Lover wins.)
Bread Lover won.
Bread Lover.
The winner is...
(With her amazing singing ability,)
(she made it to Final Round.)
Go, Bread Lover. Go, Bread Lover.
That was the best Round Two.
Bread Lover beat Tarot Man...
with the score of 68 to 31.
The score was 68 to 31.
Congratulations.
We will see her again on the next round.
She performed well despite the injury.
Please give it up for her once again.
(Shortly, Tarot Man's identity will be revealed.)
I'll sing with a rich voice.
I'll see you on Round Three.
Now, we will reveal Tarot Man's identity.
Please go to the back of the stage.
Please stand in the back.
Now, Tarot Man, please take off the mask...
and reveal your face.
(His singing is stable.)
(His voice is well balanced.)
(His sweet voice is perfect to listen to before going to bed.)
(He's got toughness within the sweetness.)
(He's whimsical too.)
Please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(Who is Tarot Man with the whimsical charms?)
(No way.)
He is...
(They are fascinated.)
- Who is it? - Who are you?
(We want to know who you are, Tarot Man.)
- Who is it? - Who is it?
(Who could it be?)
What's wrong?
Please show us your face.
He is the nation's most wanted man,
singer Junggigo.
(Is it Junggigo?)
(They can't believe Tarot Man was Junggigo.)
(They never expected it to be him.)
(Welcome)
It's Junggigo.
Hello. Hello. I am Junggigo.
It's nice to see you all.
(His song "Some" from 2014 was a huge hit.)
(He captured women's hearts with his sweet voice.)
(He topped all kinds of music charts.)
(Soyou and Junggigo win for the 2nd time.)
(He's a singer-songwriter with 16 years of experience.)
(He proved his talent with his unique music.)
(Since the debut, he worked on many hip hop albums.)
(Junggigo wins Rhythm and Blues Artist of the Year award.)
(He's got the sweetest voice.)
(He's a vocalist with gentle charms.)
On Round One, you were very awkward.
So we suspected you weren't used to singing on stage.
- Right. It's... - That's why we suspected you.
Actually, I can't move...
because I'm afraid my outfit will fall apart.
- This is... - You might lose the glitters.
It's my first time to wear something like this.
(He's bling-bling.)
I couldn't let it happen in front of many experienced artists.
You sang "Some"...
with Soyou, and you had such a sweet voice.
You also sang in falsetto.
We thought those were your charms.
But you sang "Malri Flower" by Lee Seung Chul today.
It's actually a very intense...
- and emotional song. - Yes.
We could see a new side of you.
In fact,
people think of me in a certain way.
Because of my voice or singing style,
they think I'd be soft and nice...
Oh, I am nice. They think I'd be quiet,
small, and weak. That's how they imagine I'd be.
(You're right.)
They get surprised when they actually see me.
I'm just an ordinary man.
An Ordinary man? The first thing people noticed was your thighs.
They thought you were an athlete.
I didn't expect that kind of reaction.
Actually, my real name is...
Jung Gi Yeol.
- Really? - Yes.
On radio shows, they ask me if I'm Junggigo's brother.
They say we look similar.
- They do look similar. - That's true.
My last name is actually Go.
(He's at a loss for words.)
- Kai must be embarrassed. - Be careful what you say.
- My real name is Go Jung Gi. - You should be careful.
- His family name is Go. - The staff and people think...
his stage name is also his real name.
- Kai hasn't been this embarrassed. - I'm very embarrassed.
I didn't mean to embarrass you.
- Please continue. - What I wanted to say was...
his unique vibrato...
made me feel electrified.
It felt very thrilling.
That's why I believe it'd be great...
if you sing songs in different genres like today.
I'm sure a lot of audience will be fascinated by your performance.
- That's right. - Thank you.
I hope you'll try singing songs in various genres.
He wasn't the popular singer with a sweet voice today.
He showed his great sensibility...
as a singer-songwriter with 16 years of experience.
It was Junggigo. Please give him a big round of applause.
Thank you.
(We'll look forward to your great performance in the future.)
It was fun.
I want to take off this golden jacket as soon as possible.
There are many people who don't know me that well.
By watching this show,
I'd like them to see a new side of me.
I just hope they'll enjoy the show as a gift from me.
I could've done a better job at breaking tiles.
I couldn't hit them right because the mask blocked my view.
I hit the edge of the roof tile. I can usually break more tiles.
I'm a little disappointed.
I could've peeled the boiled egg better too.
(Grinning)
This is the result of Round Two.
My Name Is Bread Lover defeated Junggigo...
and moved on to Round Three.
The second match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
He's the man who defeated Choi Sung Jo.
"I should sing for my mother as a gift."
Devoted Son, Carnation Man!
(Devoted Son, Carnation Man)
(Mother! Your gift is on its way.)
(Please sing for us too.)
Gosh, Carnation Man is a good singer.
I'm sure he's Kim Hyun Sung.
He also sounds like Lee Se Joon.
No. I doubt that he's Se Joon.
How can people have...
so many different opinions about one voice?
(His voice is clear and bright like spring flowers.)
(His stable vibrato tickles your ears.)
(He also has a great vocal range and techniques.)
(His voice sounds warm and fresh.)
(Is Carnation Man Lee Se Joon of Yurisangja?)
(While many panelists think he's Se Joon,)
(people have different opinions.)
(Is Carnation Man Kim Hyun Sung?)
(Although his identity is unclear, it's certain he's great singer.)
(It's a day before Parents' Day,)
(and Devoted Son, Carnation Man is ready to sing.)
(Everyone watches him quietly.)
(He has to beat Baby Seal,)
(and challenge the queen.)
(What's Carnation Man's secret weapon?)
("Forbidden Love" by Kim Kyung Ho)
Is this "Forbidden Love"?
This song is hard to sing. Gosh.
(Carnation Man, a singer with a sweet voice,)
(tries singing a masculine rock ballad.)
(Gosh, this is great.)
(Just like a foxtail swaying in the spring breeze,)
(his voice shakes in a delicate and beautiful way.)
I love his voice.
(His voice even conveys the predicted sadness.)
(His clear and sweet voice...)
(pierces through your heart in an instant.)
(His deep emotions shine brightly...)
(as if it's filled with lights.)
(Carnation Man's beautiful voice never disappoints you.)
(There it is!)
(He is about to show his another charm.)
He'll hit the high notes soon.
(Excited)
(The show has just begun.)
(Amazed)
(His fascinating charm surprises everyone.)
(With his surging rock spirit,)
(he completely changed the mood.)
(He added intensity on his delicate voice.)
(His fierce charisma...)
(fills up the stage in an instant.)
(He skillfully alters the mood.)
(Amazed)
(His voice sounds soft at times, and powerful at others.)
(He shows off his opposite charms on stage.)
(He fiercely shouts out...)
(in a rough voice in a second.)
(The desperateness of love pours down like heavy rain.)
(His rough virility reaches its peak.)
(An angel dressed as a rock musician...)
(shows what a true rock ballad sounds like.)
(It makes them shudder.)
(It's a cry of a real man...)
(who devoted everything he had into love.)
("Forbidden Love" is reborn by Carnation Man's powerful voice.)
(Bravo)
(Cheering)
That was great.
I don't know. I no longer think he's Lee Se Joon.
I don't think he sang in his own singing style.
I'm confused.
His opponent is...
the one who defeated Lee Se Young.
She puts on the best show that calls for a standing ovation.
Do the Seal Clap for Me, Baby Seal.
(Let the seals clap for you.)
(Baby Seal is here.)
(Welcome)
She's the one to watch.
She's a strong competitor.
She's good. I hope she'll do well.
(Her warm voice makes you emotional...)
(as if she's stroking your weary heart.)
(Her stable singing shows her long years of experience.)
(She has a fascinating and sweet voice.)
(She is thought to be a professional singer or a musical actress.)
(Is Baby Seal hiding her true ability like a real seal?)
(Gu Ra thinks she's a young person who still wears school uniform.)
(Her unique specialties...)
(caught the panelists' eye. Who could she be?)
(Baby Seal's show has finally begun.)
(What song did she pick...)
(to compete against Carnation Man's "Forbidden Love"?)
(While Queen of Mask Singer fills her stomach,)
(how will Baby Seal perform to charm the audience?)
("Memory Of The Wind" by Naul)
It's "Memory Of The Wind".
Isn't this song difficult to sing?
Will she sing "Memory Of The Wind" by Naul?
She is singing all the great songs.
("Memory Of The Wind" is a hit song by Naul, the talented vocalist.)
(Amazed)
(She delivers deep emotions from the first line.)
(Her gentle voice knocks on the heart.)
(The audience feels the singer's deep sorrow.)
(Baby Seal sings with soulful singing techniques.)
(She can sing very well.)
(There is longing in the breath she takes.)
(The performance becomes more sentimental...)
(due to her delicate and skillful control over her voice.)
(Our faith, our love)
(She is really good.)
(Her warm voice fills the stage.)
(To the past that was more beautiful than the present,)
(she delivers a message with her sincere voice.)
(It's very nice.)
(He claps like a seal.)
Everyone is singing beautifully today.
(Without a break,)
(the waves of emotions surge.)
(Baby Seal heals the tired soul with an appealing voice.)
(She throws each note with power.)
(She hits high notes with steadiness and firmness.)
(She is incredible.)
(Baby Seal's "Memory Of The Wind" captivated everyone's ears.)
(Touched)
It's too hard.
I am confused.
It's hard. Who is she?
The second match of Round Two came to an end.
You have watched performances...
by male and female masked singers
who sang about love and parting with different sentimentality.
Let's hear from Kai first.
Both performances were impressive.
Because Carnation Man sang...
in a gentle, clear, and clean voice,
many panelists guessed his identity with certainty.
In this round, he sang Kim Kyung Ho's voice...
with an explosive voice.
I am sure it was a voice...
many people didn't expect to hear from him.
Now, people aren't sure about his identity. "What was that?"
- He created a twist. - I see.
Since last week, many people thought he was Lee Se Joon...
because of the similarity in their voices.
When he hit high notes,
he didn't sound like Lee Se Joon.
A multicolored voice like his...
makes us confused.
It's a bad voice.
- You don't think he is Lee Se Joon. - We were certain he is Lee Se Joon,
but his voice changed.
"Maybe he isn't Lee Se Joon." Then he sounded like Lee Se Joon.
It gives us mental exhaustion.
- Everyone had a guess. - That's right.
In any case, his performance was beyond my imagination.
We enjoyed listening to an amazing song.
Baby Seal's performance...
reminded me of the cry of a child who is looking...
for her long-lost mother.
It made my heart ache.
She used her pure voice to sing the song...
without any pretense.
She is a talented artist.
That's what I think.
All right. Young Seok, how did you like the performances?
As for Carnation Man,
I was certain he is Lee Se Joon during the first verse.
In the middle, I wondered, "Is he Kim Hyun Sung?"
Then I wondered if he is Kim Kyung Ho.
He changes his voice freely.
It feels like he is flaunting his talent.
"This is how well I can play with my voice."
- "I have many charms." - That's right.
When he sang the first verse,
it felt like light rain was falling.
- Light rain. - Yes. It felt like light rain.
Then his voice changed in the second verse...
and made heavy rain fall.
It felt like I was lying under the roof...
with corrugated metal panels.
Raindrops must be loud against the roof.
His performance reminded me of the raindrops on the roof.
- I am sure he is 1 of the 3. - What about Baby Seal?
Instead of singing a song,
she blossomed a flower.
She sowed seeds in the intro.
Then seeds grew sprouts and stems.
In the end, she blossomed beautiful flowers.
You felt that she sang with a lot of care.
That's right. Her performance made my heart ache.
This is what I want to say about Carnation Man.
He can both use a beautiful voice...
and a powerful voice that hits high notes.
Not many singers can do that.
During the first verse,
his voice sounded otherworldly...
like that of Simon And Garfunkel.
During the second verse, he transformed.
He sang like Scorpions.
It's not easy.
- He is like Baron Ashura. - That's right.
Baby Seal doesn't beg the audience...
to feel emotions.
Even though she sings with aloofness,
her voice contains deep emotions.
- Her aloofness delivers sorrow. - It made...
- a much cooler performance. - That's right.
When Baby Seal sang,
I was reminded of a toy from my childhood.
When you blow on this toy, a little ball floats in the air.
It may look hard to make the ball float high,
but it's harder to make...
- the ball reach the same height. - It's important to be consistent.
Naul's song has a lot of high notes.
She kept her voice high-pitched throughout the song.
It's quite a feat.
Baby Seal is an impressive seal.
- Well... - Yes, Sung Kwang.
Baby Seal sang very well.
However, her mask...
resembles Gill of Leessang.
- The mask resembles Gill. - Yes.
The mask does, not her.
I think you hurt her feelings.
- The mask resembles Gill. - I see.
- The mask does, not her. - I see, the mask.
It does resemble Gill at a distance.
- I am sorry. - He is sitting far away.
- The mask does. - Go on.
Anyway, Carnation Man...
Is that all?
Yes. I don't think I should make further comments.
The mask resembles Gill.
Yes. Carnation Man,
would you sing the first part of "To My Bride"?
That's a ridiculous request.
You are on King of Mask Singer.
- Is it not allowed? - That's a ridiculous request.
Is it not allowed?
He has a ridiculous sense of humor.
It's an uncomfortable request.
All right. You will now hear...
their real voices.
Carnation Man will...
imitate the actor Park Shin Yang.
Please show us your impression of Park Shin Yang.
To be honest, I am dating someone right now.
- Baby! Baby, let's go. - Isn't that Seo Yeong Chun?
(Isn't that Seo Yeong Chun?)
- I see. - Baby, where did you go?
(The more we listen to it, the more similar his voice is.)
Baby has left before me. I apologize.
That's it.
Seo Yeong Chun was more predominant.
- It was more like Seo Yeong Chun? - Yes.
This time, it's a singing imitation.
He will imitate Lee Seung Hwan.
(An imitation of singer, Lee Seung Hwan.)
This is Lee Seung Hwan's voice.
(My lovely)
(Luckily, it sounds more similar this time.)
(I want to say)
Now it sounds like Lee Se Joon.
During his imitation of Lee Seung Hwan,
I kept thinking that he sounded like Lee Se Joon.
Try singing "To My Bride".
- It's an imitation of Lee Se Joon. - Why are you copying Lee Se Joon?
It sounds like Lee Se Joon's voice.
It sounded like Lee Seung Hwan was imitating Lee Se Joon.
No, it sounded like Lee Se Joon was singing Lee Seung Hwan's song.
No, no it's not.
It sounded like Lee Seung Hwan imitating Lee Se Joon.
No, it sounded like Lee Se Joon was just singing as himself.
Anyway, there is one more.
You know how to sing like Seo Tai Ji?
(He's even doing an impression of Seo Tai Ji.)
- Seo Tai ji - I was a total fool
(I didn’t know. I have asthma.)
Okay. He has a lot of talents. All right.
(It's time for Baby Seal.)
This time it’s Baby Seal’s...
English pronunciation from different countries.
First, American English.
Let’s hear her American English.
Hi guys, it’s your girl,
Seal. What’s up.
It was good. Very good.
- It was good, right? - You know?
This was L.A. style.
- What's up? What's up? - This was L.A. style.
This time, it’s British English. British English pronunciation.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I hope you’re ready for this beautiful stage...
that I am continuing, thank you.
- It was very good. - There's a British person here.
Is it correct?
Is it accurate? He said it's very similar.
He's a part of the panelists.
- There's someone here. - Are you from England?
- Yes, I am. - Yes, he is.
He speaks Korean well.
He came from the U.K and he said it was similar.
This time, it's Thailand English.
Let's hear it.
Madam, if you want massage,
I will give you discount. Okay? Okay.
(If you want massage, I will give you discount.)
200 Baht. No discount. Thank you very much.
(Just listening to her pronunciation makes you feel languid.)
That's right.
I think I heard it like this too.
I think I heard it like this when I went to Thailand.
(She sounded like real Thai.)
This time, it's Indian English.
Show us your Indian English.
What are you going to say?
This stage is for me.
So you guys, please show a lot of love for King of Mask Singer.
This one too!
I feel like I've heard this before too.
I think I heard Indian people talk like this too.
Joon, were you able to relate to this?
You did very well.
Joon knows how to do a lot of different countries too.
I can, but...
Can you do a different country?
Vietnamese...
Vietnamese people like to talk like this.
- Because they want to forget the. - What country is that?
South Vietnam.
Vietnam.
It's Vietnam now. We don't call it South Vietnam anymore.
I haven't heard South Vietnam in a long time.
Anyway, Vietnamese people sound like that.
Talk like this from 7-Eleven. They want to talk like this to you,
- because we are from India. - Oh my gosh.
Why don't you have a boyfriend?
Vietnamese talk like this.
- Are you talking to me like that? - You go right there. Thank you.
- Love you. - Honey.
- Love. Love. - You look so beautiful to me.
- I want to say you look beautiful. - I love you very much.
Me too. From India. I love you.
You guys have just seen a Vietnamese person and...
a Thai person having a conversation...
in English.
You're very good.
All right then.
Round Two, Semi-finals.
I will now announce the results of the second group.
Between the two masked singers...
the winner is...
(He's soft and rough at times.)
(He is a master of change, and can go from a sweet to a husky voice.)
(He has a strong and straightforward voice, Carnation Man.)
(However, his opponent is just as strong.)
(She has a detailed and deep voice.)
(She stimulates the emotions of those listening to her, Baby Seal.)
Between Carnation Man and Baby Seal,
who will move on to the Final Round?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is it?
The winner is...
(The result of the battle between two unapproachable classics.)
(Who will be one step closer to becoming the next King?)
(Who is the final winner of Round Two?)
We will reveal the winner.
Who is it? What are the results?
The winner is...
(Devoted Son, Carnation Man wins!)
Carnation Man. Carnation Man has won.
(Carnation Man won!)
I knew it.
(Our devoted son is great!)
(It's too bad. Baby Seal.)
(Shouting)
(He's amazed.)
Carnation Man.
(62 versus 37)
With a final score of 62 to 37,
Carnation Man moves on to the Final Round.
Please return to the waiting room. Let's give him a round of applause.
(The identity of the cute Baby Seal will be revealed soon.)
Oh, my legs.
I will try my best in the next round.
Go, Carnation Man!
Because you're a baby seal,
this stage might have been a bit scary to you.
We will now reveal your identity.
Please come to the back of the stage.
Who could Baby Seal be?
Baby Seal will now take off her mask,
and show her face.
(Is Baby Seal really young?)
(She makes the flowers bloom with her voice.)
(She is a very talented singer.)
(Is she a Korean-American who speaks English well?)
Baby Seal will take of her mask,
and show her face.
(Surprised)
(Welcome!)
Everyone's excited.
A lot of people know her.
She's a singer.
Who is it?
She's the winner of "K-Pop Star, Season 1"...
and a member of 15and, Park Ji Min.
(Next generation global star, Park Ji Min is here!)
My goodness.
I was right.
(No one expected Baby Seal's real identity.)
(Shocked)
(We were waiting for you.)
(Proud)
Please say hello to all the viewers.
Hello. I'm Park Ji Min. It's nice to meet you.
("K-Pop Star" Park Ji Min, appears on CNN)
(In 2012, she appeared on "K-Pop Star" and praised by CNN.)
(She won with her unparalleled voice.)
(After, she debuted as the genius vocal of talented group, 15and.)
(Her hit songs are "I Dream", "Somebody", "Sugar",)
(and "Love is Madness".)
(With her innate sense of rhythm and vocal skills,)
(her songs topped all of the music charts.)
(Normally, she has a cute and friendly image...)
(which made her popular on many variety shows.)
(She also showed us a different side of her through solo activities.)
(She is versatile! A charming vocalist, Park Ji Min.)
You said that there are still a lot of people...
who think you're a student.
I came out on the audition program when I was in middle school.
So that image is still very strong in many people's mind.
That's why a lot of people still remember me...
and see me as a middle school student.
- But I'm a grown-up now. - I see.
Joon kept saying that you were young.
- She is young. She's only 22. - Yes, yes.
Did you live in the United States?
No, I lived in Thailand.
(I see.)
There are a lot of people from different cultures in Thailand.
- Yes. - That's how you learned English.
Yes, it is.
It was so much fun.
I heard that your parents have been waiting...
for you to appear on King of Mask Singer.
Your parents wanted to see you...
in King of Mask Singer, right?
I was watching the episode where Su Ran sang...
- with my mother... - Yes, Su Ran.
the other day.
Mom asked me if it was me.
- She thought it was me. - "Why didn't you tell me that?"
Right, but Dad knew it wasn't me.
He said she was too slim to be me.
So I decided to come here and sing on the stage for them.
Hyun Chul.
I think Ji Min's...
low voice is very attractive.
Thank you.
It's not easy...
to find female singers with an attractive low voice.
If she makes the most out of her talent,
I believe she will be the best singer...
with a unique and amazing low voice in the country.
I've never seen a woman with such a wonderful voice...
like her before.
I'll look forward to seeing you more often on stages.
Thank you.
She's a great singer...
with outstanding singing skills and a unique voice.
She's Park Ji Min.
- Please give a round of applause. - Thank you.
(We look forward to your future endeavors.)
(I'm still trembling.)
I'm glad I could sing...
the songs I really like.
I feel so good that it's over now.
I don't want to keep myself occupied with only one thing.
There are a lot of singers...
who have their own distinctive characteristics these days.
But I want to be a singer like a chameleon.
Please love and support my songs.
I'll work harder to be a decent singer.
(Imitating a seal)
Devoted Son, Carnation Man...
defeated Park Ji Min of 15and and moved on to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Now we have the final round...
to decide the 55th King of Mask Singer.
We have two masked singers for Round Three...
who are here to snap Spirited Lady's three-game win streak.
We'll bring them out on the stage again.
Please give them a round of applause.
(The last match is about to begin.)
(My Name Is Bread Lover versus Devoted Son, Carnation Man)
She's doing a good job despite her injury.
It is a match...
between Bread Lover...
and Carnation Man.
(Excited)
We have 1 female singer and 1 male singer.
Now that they're in Round Three, I wonder how they feel now.
I'm glad that I've moved on to Round Three.
I'll call up my last reserves of strength...
to show you a wonderful performance.
(Good luck!)
We didn't even know...
if Bread Lover could be here because of her injury.
Carnation Man, what about you?
I'm so excited to be here.
The panelists even pointed out things...
that I didn't think about.
I've learned my lesson here.
Bread Lover.
- As she's injured, - She's injured.
- You're right. - I feel sorry for her.
But...
now that I'm here,
I want to see the Queen of Mask Singer sing on stage in person.
(Surprised)
- Even though she's injured. - She should go home and rest.
"She should go home and rest." That'd be good for her.
I'm just saying it for her.
Stop making people uncomfortable and go home.
Are you saying that?
How do you feel?
I almost got caught in a weak moment, but I'm competitive again.
(She shouldn't do this.)
She got competitive again.
- I'm highly motivated now. - She's motivated.
Spirited Lady, we have two masked singers here.
Do you think they deserve to be here?
Yes, I think so.
It feels like there are huge mountains...
in front of me.
I'll have to go over the mountains.
I'll watch their performances carefully.
All right. Now,
let's begin Round Three, Final Round.
My Name Is Bread Lover will sing first.
(Excited)
Let's go!
I'm so excited. What song is she singing?
It'll be explosive.
(It is a very tense moment.)
(In Round Two, she made everyone cry singing "That Person Back Then".)
(What song is she singing...)
(to defeat Carnation Man...)
(and challenge Queen of Mask Singer?)
(What's the last blow of Bread Lover?)
("For You" by Yim Jae Beum)
Is it "For You"?
(How would the emotional singer, Bread Lover sing "For You"?)
The song fits her voice perfectly.
(Amazed)
(She has a deep husky voice.)
(Her unique voice...)
(captures the audience.)
(That's so cool!)
(Her husky voice has distant memories of love.)
(Despite a lot of mistakes I've made,)
(you're always there for me.)
(She starts her letter of apology saying softly.)
(Her voice has a deep resonance for the apology.)
(Her true heart fills the stage.)
(Her rough and sad cry...)
(is heartbreaking.)
(Her voice has the memories of her fierce love.)
(Because I love you)
(A cry of sad love makes people's hearts ache.)
(This is it!)
(She's Bread Lover.)
(She's so cool.)
(Bread Lover's captivating cry...)
(touches everyone's heart.)
(She sings with delicate but heavy emotions.)
(Her sword-like voice captivates the audience.)
(With her firm and resonant voice,)
(she sings about the sorrow of parting.)
(Her husky voice breaks people's hearts.)
(She has to sing sitting on a chair with a leg injury,)
(but it doesn't stop her from showing off her explosive singing.)
(It's a desperate cry for someone she loves.)
(For you)
(I'm going to leave)
(With her appealing voice,)
(she swept the whole studio.)
(The sad emotions linger on for a while.)
(It was amazing.)
She's a master.
Her voice gives me weird feelings.
- It was perfect. - That was so cool.
Her opponent is...
a singer who defeated Choi Sung Jo and Park Ji Min.
He will take good care of the panelists with his voice.
Devoted Son,
Carnation Man.
(He is a happy, loving son.)
(Welcome)
I'm so excited.
(Me too.)
He's not Lee Se Joon.
- He's not? - His gestures are not Se Joon's.
Really? Who is he then?
(They are confused about his identity.)
(What song is he singing...)
(to defeat Bread Lover...)
(and challenge Queen of Mask Singer?)
("For 1000 Days" by Lee Sung Hwan)
His voice will be great for the song.
(They are at awe.)
(The emotional low notes resonate deeply.)
(His sweet voice is like a whisper.)
(They are falling for his singing.)
(He magnifies the sorrow of the broken heart...)
(with his delicate and beautiful voice and breathing.)
(For 1000 days,)
(I was used to your smile and tears.)
(We loved each other so much.)
(His subtle voice penetrates people's hearts.)
(Carnation Man is excellent at delivering the emotions.)
(He is the best.)
(House Band)
(For 1000 days)
(He starts to shake off the agony in his heart...)
(with his powerful voice.)
(She exclaims.)
(His emotions are so appealing.)
(His refreshing and powerful high notes are exploding.)
(Emotional yet charismatic)
(He knows how to control the emotions in "For 1000 Days".)
(He is wonderful.)
(Bravo)
(He fascinates the panelists with his emotions.)
I feel desperately lonely.
(So do I.)
What should I do? All of them did so well.
Now Round Three is all over.
I think it was a tough decision.
Queen of Mask Singer, what did you think of their performances?
My legs are shaking now.
- Are they shaking? - Yes.
Do you feel threatened by them?
- They were like high mountains. - I see.
While I was listening to their songs,
I got emotional yet nervous.
- I was also scared. - Okay.
I think I should do my best.
- Right. - I will.
I should be strong and have guts.
Okay.
(She is cute.)
You seem to be less confident than before.
But you are a great singer too.
Everyone, please give her a round of applause to cheer her up.
Queen of Mask Singer, please move to the back of the stage...
and get ready for the Final Match.
I believe it was a hard decision for the panelists too.
Joon, you were the last one to press the button.
- Both of them were so good. - Were they?
I saw Bread Lover...
while she was singing and she was wiggling her toes.
- You mean the injured toes? - No. The toes of the other foot.
- The other foot? - I saw her raising her foot...
- in the white boot. - Okay.
And she wanted to raise her injured foot too, but she couldn't.
So I realized she was immersed in her feelings.
- She couldn't help it. - All right.
- And Carnation Man. - Carnation Man.
- He is the king. - Is he?
I don't have any reason to feel sad now,
but I became sad.
- You're going to be a dad soon. - Right.
- I should be happy. - You can't be sad.
- But that punk made me sad. - All right.
- "Punk"? - I mean that guy.
(His voice is full of emotions.)
His song was so good that I became very sad.
And he looked so relaxed.
Because both of them were so good,
I pressed any button without seeing it.
- Really? - Really.
- Don't you know who you chose? - You're irresponsible...
- to do that. - I don't know whom I picked.
- That means they are great singers. - Right.
Are the contestants this good every time?
- Yes. - Yes, they are these days.
- They are always good. - They are awesome.
There are so many Koreans who can sing very well.
I know.
Hyun Chul, how did you feel?
If I ask Bread Lover...
to sing one more song now,
I think she can't.
- Do you think so? - I think so because she put...
forth every ounce of her energy while singing.
Her interpretation of "For You" was different...
- from Yim Jae Beum's. - It was?
Jae Beum sings it...
beautifully.
But her song was a little rough,
and she used all of her energy to sing it.
I was very surprised.
I'm so curious about who she is.
And I think Carnation Man's "For 1000 Days"...
is almost the completion of his singing.
I even thought about what would have happened...
if Kim Dong Ryul had given the song to him...
instead of Lee Seung Hwan.
He did an excellent job.
Joon asked if the contestants are usually this good.
They are usually good, but today...
- they are even better. - I see.
Personally, I think there is a critical moment in singing a song.
When the first measure begins,
many people anticipate it.
But that anticipation may change into disappointment...
or it can turn into cheers.
I think it is decided in the first measure.
And her first measure was good enough to lead to cheers.
On "Unplugged", the American popular TV show in the 90s,
most of the singers were singing while sitting.
She reminded me of the singers who sang on the show.
But there is something I was a little disappointed about.
With the power of music, I think she should have...
stood up and walked at the end of the performance.
That's the part I was disappointed about.
- I thought a miracle would happen. - It doesn't make sense.
- He's funny. - You thought she would walk in?
- I thought she could. - Okay.
- You expected such a miracle. - But there was no miracle.
And Carnation Man sang Seung Hwan's song...
more like Seung Hwan than himself.
- There is a word "beyond". - Right.
He was beyond Seung Hwan.
It was a fantastic performance.
He was highly praised. What about Danny?
I think Bread Lover is awesome.
- She is? - Yes, she is.
The music, her voice, and her body seemed to become one.
I felt like she was telling...
all the stories the song has...
as if she were reading a fairy tale.
And Carnation Man...
seems to have the best appealing voice.
I pulled my hair when I was listening to his song.
(Listening to his appealing high notes,)
(he automatically groomed his hair.)
- His voice is so appealing. - Right.
I became your fan now.
Now, let me tell you the result...
of the Final Match.
The deep resonance of emotions,
My Name Is Bread Lover.
And the delicate feast of the beautiful voice,
Carnation Man.
Between the two masked singers,
the final winner to move on to the 55th Final Match...
will be revealed now.
(The winner will be revealed now.)
(Her rich voice exploded.)
(And her deep emotions formed a whirlpool.)
(Bread Lover had the sorrowful husky voice.)
(He sang powerfully and beautifully.)
(With his delicate voice, he calmed his emotions.)
(And then his voice exploded at the highlight.)
Between Bread Lover and Carnation Man,
who will become the rival of Spirited Lady?
Who is the mask singer we want to see once again?
The winner is...
Let's check the winner of this match.
The winner is...
Please.
(Tell us fast. We're getting dizzy.)
(It was a match between a male and a female vocalist.)
(Will the husky voice with deep emotions win?)
(Or will the delicate voice with powerful emotion win?)
The winner is...
(Devoted Son, Carnation Man wins.)
Carnation Man.
(The devoted son won once again.)
(Instead of Bread Lover,)
(Carnation Man will challenge to beat Queen of Mask Singer.)
(The competition was intense, and nobody could predict the result.)
Carnation Man won.
The score was 63 to 36.
(It was a tough decision.)
The score was 63 to 36.
Carnation Man became a candidate.
Please give it up for him.
(Charming girl, Bread Lover's identity will be soon revealed.)
I don't know if she's who I think she is.
But I am a big fan of her.
Please sing good songs.
Now, we will find out who this fighter is.
Who would she be?
Let's check now.
Please turn back.
Bread Lover,
please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(She hurt her legs two days before the first performance.)
(But she still overflew with energy and passion.)
(She's a real singer.)
(She's got enough charisma to be called Little Yang Hee Eun.)
Please take off your mask and reveal your face.
The singer is...
(No way.)
(Why?)
(Who is it?)
Bread Lover,
please reveal your face.
She's the vocalist of the talented group that debuted four years ago,
The Barberettes. Please welcome Shinae An Wheeler.
(It's The Barberettes!)
I knew it.
(Welcome!)
(They never expected it to be her.)
I really like her.
(She bows.)
Hello. It's nice to meet you all.
I am Shinae An Wheeler from The Barberettes.
(They perfectly reenact the 60s and 70s retro music.)
(She's the leader of the indie girl group, The Barberettes.)
(They are a unique girl group who travel through time.)
(She's got the natural talent to produce music.)
(With her rich and charming voice,)
(she won the approval as a new generation vocalist.)
(They began in Hongdae and even became famous abroad.)
(The Barberettes will meet their European fans in France.)
(Shinae came riding a time machine.)
Some of you might not recognize her.
I actually met Shinae on Duet Song Festival.
I heard your voice when you sang with Kim Do Hyang.
I thought she was a true gem.
K.will strongly recommended her too.
He recommended Shinae.
(I understand.)
Is it true that you have more than 100 songs registered?
- Yes. - That's a big number.
I worked in a chorus for a long time.
I've been trying to debut since high school,
but it didn't go too well. So I worked as a chorus singer.
That's why I've sung more than 100 songs.
Some songs you might know are...
Baek Z Young's "My Ear Candy" is one.
- I sang a part of that. - Is your voice in that song?
Do you know the intro?
(The dreamlike voice is Shinae's voice.)
(Seong Ju is too excited.)
That's the only part I sang.
- Is that right? - After that it's all Z Young.
Goodness, we had no idea.
Bong Sun,
is she Little Yang Hee Eun you were referring to?
Yes. She is.
Her group, The Barberettes...
is such a charming group.
If you search for their music,
you will find out that they are a very unique girl group.
They are amazing.
- Right. - Thank you.
I heard about them abroad.
Megadeth is 1 of the world's 4 greatest thrash metal bands.
And Marty Friedman was a guitarist in that band.
He's possibly the best guitarist in the world.
And he played for them.
The world approved them first, and...
- now we are getting to know them. - I see.
We, metal heads, cheer for The Barberettes.
- Thank you. - All right. We hope...
- more people will love them. - Rock and roll.
Please give it up for her.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
(We hope you will shine even brighter.)
Good job.
My mom watches King of Mask Singer every week.
She will be very surprised when she sees this.
I could sing for many people,
and I was satisfied with my performances.
It felt really good.
Thank you so much for watching my performance.
I will try harder to do better music.
Thank you.
As the result of Round Three,
Devoted Son, Carnation Man...
beat Shinae from The Barberettes and made it to Final Round.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Now, Spirited Lady on the Ninth Rank...
will have a defense match.
What kind of a performance will she put on...
to keep her throne?
Now, we will begin the 55th Final Match. Welcome the queen.
(It will begin right now.)
This is the 55th Final Match.
She aims for the third win.
She's the 54th Queen of Mask Singer, Spirited Lady.
(Only the Queen of Mask Singer can open that door!)
(Pay attention to the door!)
(Spirited Lady enters.)
(She's dignified.)
(She's Spirited Lady.)
She's more like on the 19th rank.
I am always excited for her performance.
She's really good. Really good.
She's really tiny.
She's thin as a girl idol, but her voice is so powerful.
I really wanted to hear her voice in real life.
It's different when you listen to it on TV.
(She's very cool today.)
She became more beautiful.
She looks better today.
The cameras made her more beautiful.
Can the mask change?
(It's her second defense match.)
(She's pressured...)
(by her rival with a strong voice.)
(What kind of a performance will she put on to keep the throne?)
("Hug Me" by Jung Jun Il)
I love this song.
(Goodness)
(Her delicate voice subtly subsides the sorrow.)
(Her breath overtakes the coldness of sorrow.)
(I thought about the breakup many times.)
(But it's painful to me)
(With a broken heart, she sings sorrowfully.)
(If it's hard to love me,)
(I can love you more.)
(I couldn't see the traces of your cold heart.)
(The sorrowful emotions held me together.)
(She lets out a cry to vent her oppressed sorrow.)
(There is nothing I can do now.)
(Her desperate cry sounds as intense as the pain she feels.)
(That was unbelievable.)
(Please hug me)
(She lets out a heartbreaking cry towards her unreachable love.)
(Her agonizing wailing pierces through your heart.)
(Just hug me)
(It's a sad cry of a woman enduring the pain of a breakup.)
(She perfectly showed the depth of her deep emotions.)
(It was amazing!)
(It was the best.)
(She's the best indeed.)
Who is she? Gosh.
(Her voice still lingers in their ears.)
It's like she's a superhuman.
Final Match is now over.
It's time for you to make a decision now.
Press number one for Devoted Son, Carnation Man,
and press number two for Spirited Lady on the Ninth Rank.
Spirited Lady has a voice that...
makes you want to hug her. Will she be able to defend...
her throne once again?
Or will Carnation Man...
become the new King of Mask Singer?
All votes are in.
Young Seok. Please tell us what you think.
They may seem to have different voices,
but both of them actually have innocent voices.
The voice of the queen has...
a range of four octaves from the Middle C.
In plain words,
she can sing notes that are one octave higher...
than the notes that Romantic Punch sang.
(His fierce high notes...)
(set the studio on fire.)
(As if she's breaking the record for the wide vocal range,)
(she hits higher notes every week.)
She can freely sing...
that kind of high notes.
This is just a joke,
but I think her voice should be...
selected as the most beautiful voice by the United Nations.
- You mean like a world heritage. - Yes.
(Her beautiful voice spreads through the UN Headquarters.)
(Good job.)
(This is what we were looking for.)
(The most beautiful voice in the world)
She'll stay with us for a while.
She's incredible.
- Seong Ju. - Yes?
- Kai cried earlier. - I know.
Yes. Kai is actually a quite coldhearted person.
(His emotions surge up from the middle of the song.)
(As it gets closer to the climax...)
(Tears fall.)
(He keeps wiping his eyes with tissues.)
(All right. I got you.)
- I saw him crying. - I know.
Are you related to her somehow?
- Why did you cry? - Why were there tears?
Well... I told you that it took me two seconds...
to figure out who she is when she first performed.
There is a lot of history...
between Spirited Lady and me.
- Oh, my. - When I was hurt...
- and going through a hard time, - She just sang "Hug Me".
she was like a mentor to me.
Why did you cry?
I also know what she has been through.
It reminded me of those things while I was listening to her song,
and I had an overwhelming feeling that...
I can't describe with words.
That's why.
The high notes of Carnation Man...
somehow felt like fire.
His high notes felt like...
blazing fire.
As for the queen, Elsa in "Frozen"...
freezes Anna, right?
I wondered how painful it'd be...
when Anna's heart was freezing.
When I was listening to Spirited Lady's song,
it felt like she threw an ice dagger and it hit my heart.
(Snow flurries rage as she shouts.)
(It feels like she owns a gigantic ice castle.)
(I can't believe this.)
(She has the most magical and unparalleled voice.)
Her high notes feel like ice,
and his high notes feel like fire.
- That's how I felt. - I see.
- Gu Ra. - There was a man...
who was known to have an angelic voice.
He was famous during the 70s and the 80s.
It's Jon Anderson of a band called Yes.
(Yes, a progressive rock band...)
(which was very popular from the 70s to the 80s)
On the covers of Yes' LP record,
it said "Jon Anderson, the angelic voice".
I didn't really know what that meant back then.
But as I listened to Spirited Lady's song,
I thought the high notes sounded...
sacred somehow.
It reminded me of the phrase, "angelic voice".
As for Carnation Man,
I am certain that he is Lee Se Joon.
Seong Ju covered his mouth with the cue card...
and said something to him.
He and Se Joon are friends.
I realized that he's Se Joon because of Seong Ju.
(During a little break,)
(Seong Ju whispered something to him.)
(Okay. I got it.)
- Did I? - You covered your mouth.
I just said, "You're such a good singer."
- That's what I said. - So...
what I want to say is this.
If it's Se Joon, I think this is a great discovery.
His group, Yurisangja, has built...
a certain image for 20 years.
They can just maintain that image forever,
but he refused to settle for it,
and sang on stage by himself. I think that's pretty amazing.
Then Seong Ju spoiled everything.
Anyway, I was really surprised.
His singing has gotten so much better.
- All right. Joon. - Yes.
Was it hard for you to choose this time too?
How should I say this?
- How should you describe it? - She's just...
- Well... Incredible. - Incredible.
Yes. When she sings, she hits the high notes...
and keeps going higher.
Infinity. It's limitless. There is no end.
She sings the high notes so easily. One thing she can work on is...
I'm saying this when I'm not even a good singer. I'm sorry.
No. We respect your personal opinion.
Let's say you're listening to the radio.
When you set up the sound,
there are high, mid-bass, and bass bars.
That's right. You can adjust them.
Sometimes,
people want to hear sounds from the middle register.
She sang quietly at first,
and went for the high notes right away.
If she can sing such high notes...
and sing the introduction calmly,
the sound in the middle must sound so sweet.
When it comes to singing the high notes, she's the winner.
He knows so much. Are you Park Jin Young?
- No. - You sound like him.
- You know so much. - He's saying something important.
- Are you Park Jin Young? - No.
I'm Joon Park.
(Laughing)
"I'm Joon Park."
Let me take an example to describe it.
If she was chocolate,
right now, she's dark chocolate...
and really light chocolate.
If she can mix those two, it'll sound much sweeter.
(This is what I'm talking about!)
(I see!)
She hit such high notes that it made me flare my nostrils.
My nose started to run, so I blew my nose in the middle.
- I really blew my nose. - He's not Jin Young.
Also, Carnation Man knows how to sing skillfully.
If we were looking at an equalizer, he can use all of its ranges.
If he were to draw a map and set out on a trip,
- he'd drive to every road. - You mean thoroughly.
- Yes. - He won't miss a single road.
That's why they're both so charming.
I became a fan of both of them. I felt bad to choose one.
- As for Spirited Lady... - Yes, Bong Sun.
When you walk down the street...
and bump into something or get yourself hurt,
you can let out a scream only when it doesn't hurt too badly.
When it hurts more than that, it actually makes you laugh.
- When... - You should feel the real pain.
(He criticizes her again.)
When Spirited Lady was singing today,
she was so good that...
- it made me laugh. - I know what you mean.
I was like this. Each week,
she touches our hearts...
in an unexpected way.
- She did a good job today. - That's right.
If she defends her title today,
I can't wait to find out how she will touch us the next time.
If Carnation Man...
is Lee Se Joon,
I always pegged him as a man who is only gentle and nice.
Seeing his performance made me think that he is cool...
for the first time in my life.
If he isn't Lee Se Joon, I will be surprised.
If he is Lee Se Joon, I will still be surprised.
All right. Now, I will announce...
the result of the 55th Final Match.
Which masked singer did your unbiased heart choose?
The 55th King of Mask Singer will be revealed right now.
(The winner will be revealed.)
All right.
(His voice is refreshing and sweet.)
(His beautiful voice stood out in Round One.)
(Then he transformed into a rough and manly man.)
(His voice alternated between delicate and husky.)
(He was like Baron Ashura in Round Two.)
(He is the master of choosing songs.)
(He was armed with sentimentality and skills in Round Three.)
(Carnation Man threw a punch of high notes.)
(She refuses to lose.)
(Waves of emotions gently pushed forward.)
(Her explosive sentimentality gained depth.)
(Inside the whirlpool of emotions,)
(she showed the power of Queen of Mask Singer.)
Which masked singer...
did you decide as the 55th King of Mask Singer?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
I can't watch it.
(What should I do?)
(The owner of Golden Mask...)
(will be decided in this fateful moment.)
(Who will be the final winner?)
- The winner is... - Who is the winner?
Who will be the winner?
Which masked singer did the audience choose?
Will Spirited Lady have three consecutive wins?
Will Carnation Man take the throne?
Let's check the result.
Please show the result. The winner is...
The winner is...
Spirited Lady won.
(Spirited Lady succeeded in taking 3 consecutive wins.)
(It's the reign of Spirited Lady.)
(It's too bad that Carnation Man lost.)
That's incredible.
She is strong.
(What is the difference between scores?)
Spirited Lady succeeded in taking three consecutive wins.
(Amazing)
The final score is 77 to 22.
With a big difference in votes,
Spirited Lady succeeded in taking three consecutive wins.
The queen's reign will continue...
in King of Mask Singer.
I want to know how you are feeling.
Thanks to those who understand how nervous I must be,
I will prepare a performance for another week.
Thank you so much. I will work hard.
All right. In this beautiful season,
Spirited Lady will take the throne once again.
For security, she will exit the stage right away.
Please give her a big hand.
(Queen of Mask Singer marches.)
Spirited Lady succeeded in taking three consecutive wins.
She became the 53rd, 54th, and 55th...
Queen of Mask Singer.
We will hear Spirited Lady's voice again...
next week.
(Carnation Man's identity will be revealed.)
It's time to take off your mask.
Would you like to say something before you do that?
This is an offer...
for 22 people who have voted for me.
That's not a big group of people. Shall we have a drink at a pub?
(It's an exclusive offer.)
He wants 22 people to stay behind.
- Please do that. - 22 people should stay behind.
He wants to go to a pub with them.
I voted for him too.
The biggest reason I wanted to come this far was...
to listen to Queen of Mask Singer's song from up close.
Listening to her song...
and the critiques of the panelists,
I thought to myself, "No one is on my side."
- No, no. - That was the thought I had.
Joon, Joon. I mean...
I knew it. Here if what you should know.
Okay.
You lost the race. While you lost the race,
you looked cooler when you ran.
That much is certain.
- What are you, Park Jin Young? - I am Joon Park.
Seriously.
- Joon is incredible. - That's right.
- Would you take off your mask now? - Yes.
All right. Please move to the back of the stage.
Now, Carnation Man,
reveal your face.
(His voice was heartwarming and refreshing.)
(He has charms like Baron Ashura.)
(He is the king.)
(He has the most appealing voice.)
(Is he Lee Se Joon?)
(Even Young Seok, who discovered Lee Se Joon, thought the same.)
(However, different opinions about his voice arose.)
(In Round One, they were certain that he is Lee Se Joon.)
(However, they began to doubt in Round Two and Three.)
(His specialty suggested that he is Lee Se Joon.)
(Is Carnation Man Lee Se Joon?)
Please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(Goodness)
(Everyone claps like a seal.)
I am really curious about his identity.
It's him, right?
It's him.
Maybe it's not him.
It's him.
He is...
a member of the sentimental duo that debuted 20 years ago,
Lee Se Joon of Yurisangja.
(He is Lee Se Joon.)
(He is the man they have been waiting for.)
It's him. It's him.
Se Joon is cool.
He did a good job.
- Please say hello to the viewers. - Okay.
It was an honor to perform on a nice stage.
I survived until the end.
Queen of Mask Singer went home. I am the last one.
- That's right. - This is better.
That's right. Queen of Mask Singer went home.
I hope the audience enjoyed my performances. Thank you.
All right.
(He debuted in 1997 with "Only You".)
(Yurisangja is a folk duo that represents the millennials.)
("Beautiful World", "To My Bride", "Can I Love You", "Smile")
(They released songs like jewels.)
(The original singer-songwriters)
(Due to their healing voices,)
(they are the most popular singers at weddings.)
(With songs anyone can sing along,)
(they created a unique genre.)
(He is a male vocalist with a beautiful voice.)
(His explosive singing skills have been acknowledged.)
(The vocalist who is as clear as glass, Lee Se Joon)
I heard King of Mask Singer got you many phone calls...
even though you haven't appeared on the show before.
Panelists have mentioned my name a lot.
They say it's me whenever they see someone with a thin voice.
I got calls every Sunday night. "That's you, right?"
One of them got angry at me...
when I told him no.
"Am I not a friend to you?"
"Must you lie to me?"
He stopped calling me.
Call me if you are watching this.
- It's your first visit to the show. - Yes, it is.
During Round Two,
- I told Jang Hyuk... - He said he isn't Lee Se Joon.
- that he can't be Lee Se Joon. - He was so certain.
(I told you he isn't Lee Se Joon.)
(He sounds exactly like Lee Se Joon when he hits low notes.)
I said I am certain he isn't Lee Se Joon.
I thought he was someone who sings like Lee Se Joon.
It's impressive that he fooled me.
He sang incredibly well.
Yurisangja, the glass box,
became the metal box.
(Laughing)
- Metal box? - Stop making a dad joke.
It's a dad joke.
I think it's funny.
Steel container for Chinese food comes to mind.
(Steel container for Chinese food comes to mind.)
- Is that what he is referring to? - That's how...
strong his voice is.
- He sang wonderfully. - Thank you.
We witnessed Se Joon's true talent.
He shed his image of a singer with a beautiful voice...
and let us hear a voice with a twist.
- Please give him a big hand. - Thank you.
(His incredible performances broke prejudices.)
It's strange fate...
that I wore this mask for an entire day.
(Smiling)
My original plan failed, and the panelists didn't tell me...
that I am a rocker through and through.
However, I enjoyed singing for a day...
as metal box, not glass box.
I'm Lee Se Joon!
