Previously on King of Mask Singer.
I've got an array of talents including singing.
The masked singers delighted us with their witty impersonations,
and we were happy to see some familiar artists...
from a wide variety of fields, whom we never expected to see.
And these masked singers are ready to take down the queen.
They are the four talented singers...
who survived the duet song competition.
Everyone, take off your mask, Mushroom Boy.
Scallop to the Throne, Scallop.
Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy.
Don't You Know Who I Am? Moulin Rouge.
Finally, the 74th Final Match begins.
Will Swordswoman be able to win for the fourth time...
and continue her long-lasting reign?
It begins right now.
(King of Mask Singer)
This is the first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
This masked singer beat the show host, Lee Min Woung.
His deep emotions linger in our hearts.
Everyone, take off your mask, Mushroom Boy.
(Everyone, take off your mask, Mushroom Boy)
(He enters the stage for the second time.)
(Hello.)
He looks like an expert.
I am really curious about who he might be.
He has the body of an idol singer. Don't you agree?
(His voice was on the borderline between beautiful and husky.)
(And he contained a wide range of emotions in it.)
(His voice was as smooth as if lubricant was applied.)
(His voice vibrates like Lee Se Joon's voice.)
He's a poisonous mushroom.
(He was confirmed to be a poisonous mushroom.)
He is very dangerous.
(But the parade of his special talents were rather boring.)
(He even proved to feel no pain.)
(The lack of originality in his talents...)
(hinted that he might be someone older with years of experience.)
(It's time that he showcases the charms he's been hiding.)
(Will he uncover his identity...)
(and sing something great?)
("Dream" by Cho Yong Pil)
(His husky voice makes us emotional.)
(It's as if he's wearing clothes that fit him perfectly.)
(His voice vibrates more delicately and more deeply.)
I love it.
(His voice is as beautiful as the meat of a mushroom.)
(The sounds gather...)
(and create a resonant vibration with Mushroom Boy.)
(His sorrowful voice and beautiful lyrics form an ensemble.)
That's it.
(His sorrowful voice and beautiful lyrics form an ensemble.)
(His voice is bitter like lingzhi mushroom tea.)
(She keeps her eyes closed.)
(The more he sings, the richer his voice sounds.)
He has a cool voice.
(His voice is so cool.)
(The only thing he trusts in the gray city is his dream.)
(This song is for the youth...)
(who get frustrated, go through hardships, and overcome them.)
(The performance pleases our ears like savory food.)
(Today's dinner menu is mushroom stew.)
(Applauding)
I knew he'd be good.
Nice.
He sounds like someone else in this round.
I have no idea who he could be.
Here comes his opponent.
She beat Actor Park Sang Myun.
There's no limit to her voice.
Scallop to the Throne.
(Scallop to the Throne)
(She walks elegantly towards the throne.)
(You look gorgeous!)
She looks confident.
- She has come. - She is here.
She's so mysterious.
(She sings with her resonant and refreshing voice.)
(She has an arousing voice.)
(Like a scallop on a grill,)
(her voice is powerful.)
(There's no limit to her expression.)
(But she acts like a non-singer?)
(Is scallop from a beauty contest?)
(It's hard to guess her age.)
(She showed us extraordinary dance moves.)
(It's impossible to guess who she could be.)
(In dead silence,)
(the expectation people have on Scallop grows.)
(What song will she sing...)
(to fight against Mushroom Boy's sentimental voice?)
(Scallop to the Throne)
(Her bold performance begins right now.)
("That XX" by G-Dragon)
Look at her charisma.
(The song Scallop chose shows she's a charismatic singer.)
(It's an acoustic and melodic song, "That XX" by G-Dragon.)
(What would Scallop's "That XX" be like?)
(Surprised)
(She sings as if she speaks with a quiet voice.)
(Her voice makes us focus on her performance.)
(She doesn't sound like an ordinary singer.)
(Even her humming sounds artistic.)
(Who could she be?)
(I have no idea.)
(Scallop's magical voice makes you blind.)
(She's so good.)
(This is incredible.)
(Why do you not know me?)
(Amazed)
(Please look at me)
(Scallop performed "That XX" so everyone would love her.)
(Scallop, you're awesome.)
(Who on earth is she?)
I got goose bumps.
She's so cool.
It was something fit for the Final Match.
(Their performances were as good as those from a Final Match.)
It's even harder to vote now.
The first match of Round Two is now over.
Round Two is a competition between two solo performances.
Someone was very impressed by Mushroom Boy's performance...
and commented that he must be a poisonous mushroom.
That was Kai. How did you like this performance?
It met my expectations indeed.
He's an experienced singer.
His voice...
is not clear. However,
I can feel that he's experienced...
and skilled through his voice.
I think he hasn't been studying...
and training for a short time.
(He has been living for only music for a long time.)
That's what I was thinking.
- And as for Scallop, - Yes.
With the sound of a bandoneon,
the whole performance had a tango vibe,
which was so hot.
The shell didn't open for a long time...
and it made our expectations high.
Her voice made us wait for it to open.
Her voice is such an attractive voice.
I'd like to comment on Mushroom Boy.
He has a unique vibrato.
His vibrato echoes gently...
and pierces your heart.
His unique singing skill moved my heart.
His voice is somewhat sad.
- It is. - Yes,
- so I was wondering this. - Yes.
Mushroom Boy, have you lived abroad?
He might have lived abroad for quite a long time.
- What do you mean? - That was a bit awkward.
Have you been living abroad for a long time?
- Yes, a bit. - He's lived abroad for a bit.
When he was talking about Cho Yong Pil earlier,
I got the feeling that he had a story to tell about it.
Anyway, we're giving positive comments...
about Mushroom Boy's voice because...
- his choice of song was great. - I agree.
When I listened to him performing this song,
I was also somehow moved.
I felt like giving him a hug during the performance.
But later, I realized it wasn't me who was giving a hug.
He was giving me a hug.
His voice really comforted me.
- His voice is comforting. - Yes.
Last week, didn't you say she entered a beauty pageant?
- I guess I jumped the gun. - You think so?
I did, but I felt like...
Scallop was a witch.
It's partly because of her costume,
but the main cause was how she sang as if it was about her own story.
She somehow created a dreamlike atmosphere...
and cleared it later on.
She showed us many things today.
You're on the right track.
You're getting close.
Anyway, from her performance today,
I could tell that she has skills only professional singers have.
She feels like a musical actress...
and an experienced singer as well.
I think I know who she is,
but I can't really tell you that yet.
You think you know who she is?
I know which group she belongs to.
Really? You think she's in a group?
Yes.
(This is top secret.)
She's in an amazing group, and she's a great singer herself.
Should I stop now?
(What is he saying?)
- Is her group... - Her group is amazing.
- Are they? - She's also a great singer.
Anyone can say that...
- both she and her group are great. - Right. I just realized it.
I realized that it's not something so surprising.
All right. They will now show you...
their specialties they didn't show you in Round One.
Let's start with Scallop.
She prepared some voice imitations.
She will imitate Kim Soo Mi's voice first.
She'll imitate Kim Soo Mi's voice in her actual voice. Go ahead.
Bok Gil! Bok Gil!
- Right. - That's it.
- It's Kim Soo Mi calling Bok Gil. - I see.
All right. Did it show how old she is?
This time, she'll imitate a man's voice.
It's Choi Min Soo's voice.
It's Choi Min Soo's voice. Scallop, let us hear it.
I thought I could have you this way.
(Slurring the end of the line)
It's funny.
(The panelists are satisfied.)
- It was funny at the end. - Right.
- It was funny at the end. - It was funny.
She has a good sense of humor.
Lastly, she'll imitate the voice of one of the panelists.
It's Ho Young's voice. Please listen carefully.
It's Ho Young's voice. Scallop, go ahead.
Yes! It's me, Kim Ho Young!
She sounds exactly like him.
She hit the nail on the head.
What do you think, Ho Young?
Yes, you're right! I'm Kim Ho Young!
- It sounded exactly like him. - Yes.
Her movements and gestures...
seem very familiar. She might be someone we've seen a lot.
Now, it's Mushroom Boy's turn.
He prepared a dance.
You'll see some goal celebrations of soccer players in the middle.
Please guess who the soccer players are.
Music, please.
(Goal celebration dance)
(Can't you show us?)
(He seems more serious than expected.)
(The famous kiss on the ring)
Kiss on the ring.
This is the flute celebration.
It's something Lingard did.
(Did he often play soccer at clubs?)
This is Ronaldo's goal celebration.
Ronaldo.
(Experiencing culture shock)
(The top goal scorer is excited.)
He's making a heart. That's...
Son Heung Min. It's Son Heung Min's goal celebration.
(It makes them forget that he has a touching voice.)
Please watch his dance carefully too.
Oh, it's Kim Shin Wook's goal celebration.
- Gosh. - That's all.
I guessed the soccer players correctly, right?
Wasn't I right? Okay.
This time, let's see how good Scallop is...
with her dance moves.
She prepared a female idol group's dance.
She's going to dance for us. Music, please!
(A female idol group's dance)
It's Red Velvet's song.
("Bad Boy" by Red Velvet)
(Dancing)
(She can join an idol group right now.)
I think she used to be an idol singer.
(She seems like a former idol singer.)
(Is that why she's so flexible?)
(Korea's first seafood idol singer)
(Sexy Scallop's pearly temptation)
(Even people in Pyeongyang will follow her dance.)
That's it.
All right. Great.
She's full of charms.
Eun Bin. She danced to Red Velvet's song.
What did you think about her dance?
I thought she would be an idol singer,
but her dance looked a bit old-fashioned for an idol singer.
Oh, you think it looked too old-fashioned.
- Maybe she was on "Music Camp". - "Music Camp"?
To be honest.
- I don't think so. - Why? Is something wrong?
(It's not that.)
(I see.)
She says she couldn't dance freely in her dress.
- That might have been the case. - That's what she says.
All right. The last specialty of Mushroom Boy...
is catching things with a briefcase.
- That's his specialty. - Really? Gosh.
- That sounds like fun. - Please bring in the briefcase.
That's something new.
Here is the briefcase. It's empty.
I will throw the things we have here. Please catch them.
Let's start with a slipper.
Good. That was great.
Again. It's another slipper.
Good. All right.
Here is a tie.
He caught it.
One more tie.
Good.
- But this is... - Listen.
How is it different from catching them with a basket?
He should be opening and closing the briefcase,
but he keeps it open.
How is it different from a basket?
I think Mushroom Boy...
really focused on his performance rather than his specialties.
Yes. That's probably why.
Then can he catch something I throw from here?
- Just this water bottle? - A water bottle?
- A water bottle? - It's not dangerous.
- Would that be okay? - Just a moment.
- It's quite far. - Let me drink it first.
It's quite far.
- Bong Sun, please drink some. - What?
- Drink some of it. - Or the audience might get hurt.
- Drink it. That's enough. - We have to be careful.
He should catch things from a distance like this.
We thought he'd be closing the briefcase when he catches it,
but he kept it open. That's meaningless.
- He should open and close it? - Yes, he should.
Are you sure you can do this?
There you go. Yes.
He picks up on things quickly. All right.
- Here we go, Mushroom Boy! - Mushroom Boy!
(He has thrown the bottle.)
(Mushroom Boy, a specialty trainee)
(Gu Ra, the picky instructor, badgered him,)
(and Gu Ra's talented assistant pestered him.)
(His specialties have been disregarded.)
(I will catch that bottle no matter what.)
(Here you go, Mushroom Boy!)
(He caught it!)
(Surprised)
Great job.
(He's a superstar in this moment.)
(People have finally recognized his talent.)
(He is proud.)
(Can I go home now?)
- Great job. - You did it.
Yes. You did great.
We made it work.
- We made it work. - Yes.
- He's proud of himself. - He seems to be satisfied.
Mushroom Boy is proud of himself.
- All right. - He caught things with a briefcase.
Maybe it means he's an office worker...
- and a singer. - You think it implies something?
He may be the singer who is also a renowned stockbroker,
Kim Kwang Jin.
- Kim Kwang Jin? - Yes, he sang "The Letter".
- Right. - You think he's Kim Kwang Jin?
All right. Now, I will announce...
the result of the first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
Mushroom Boy gave an emotional performance that touched our hearts,
and Scallop has an elegance and sophisticated voice.
Who is the winner of this match between these two?
I'll now reveal the winner of this match.
(I'll now reveal the winner of this match.)
(A dreamlike voice)
(Mushroom Boy has an emotional voice and deep sensibility.)
(A perfect vocalist everyone loves)
(Scallop has a charismatic singing style.)
Between Mushroom Boy and Scallop,
who is the winner of this match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Is it Mushroom, the emotional singer?)
(Or Scallop, the charismatic singer?)
(Who is the winner?)
Which masked singer won more votes from the audience?
The winner is...
(Scallop to the Throne wins.)
Scallop won.
(Scallop to Round Three)
(Yes, Scallop!)
(It's time for Mushroom Boy to take off his mask.)
Scallop defeated Mushroom Boy...
and moved on to Round Three.
The final score is 69 to 30.
Please go back to your waiting room. Let's give her a big hand.
(Mushroom Boy's identity will be revealed soon.)
I've come this far.
Queen of Mask Singer, please wait for me a little longer.
Wait for me!
Now, let's reveal...
the surprising identity...
of Mushroom Boy.
Please come to the back.
Now, Mushroom Boy, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(His beautiful vibrato is a gift.)
(He feels like someone who has been a singer for a long time.)
(His specialties looked a bit lame,)
(but he dramatically made it work.)
(Is he Kim Kwang Jin, who is a singer and a stockbroker?)
Please reveal your face.
(Shocked)
He is...
- Why? - Who is he?
They're surprised.
- Who is he? - He is...
He is...
He's the original ballad prince with a sweet voice.
He's the singer with 22 years of experience, Kim Hyun Sung.
(He's Kim Hyun Sung?)
- My goodness. - Look who's here.
(Oh my goodness.)
No wonder.
(Everyone is shocked.)
(This isn't a paused screen.)
- I know who he is. - I see.
He's here to greet you after a long time.
Hello, it's nice to meet you. I'm the singer, Kim Hyun Sung.
Hello.
(His high notes blast out like it would pierce the sky.)
(He's the singer who sang "Heaven".)
Kim Hyun Sung is the first prize winner.
(He won the first prize on Gangbyeon Song Festival in 1997.)
(You know stars always appear at the last moment.)
(He debuted like a comet with the song, "Wish".)
(He captured girls' hearts with his handsome looks and sweet voice.)
(From dance songs to soundtracks,)
(he continued his career in various fields.)
(Then he suddenly stopped his career after his 7th album.)
(He released his book of essays and transformed into a writer in 2015.)
(He also challenged himself to direct a web drama.)
(He's back on stage after a long hiatus.)
(Kim Hyun Sung's voice sounds like that from paradise.)
You suddenly left the music industry in the mid 2000s.
I heard you worked as a writer after then. Is that right?
As I turned 30, I came to have something that I wanted to do.
I wanted to start writing.
So I worked in a field...
that was totally irrelevant to music for a long time.
My name kept being searched on the Internet.
People kept searching my name.
It was because my name was mentioned...
many times on the show.
And a lot of fans contacted me too.
(When it comes to male vocalists with a beautiful voice,)
(people think of Kim Hyun Sung.)
(That's why his name was often mentioned on the show.)
He says it's thanks to this show.
Thank you.
- Our wrong guesses... - Around that time...
- have made him come out. - What's the use...
- in mentioning his name? - Those incidents...
gave me courage to make up my mind.
So this is very meaningful to me.
I'm so glad to greet you all through this show.
I'd like to thank you as well.
(Thank you for coming out.)
Among the panelists,
- I expected Hyun Chul... - Hyun Chul?
to recognize me.
He should've recognized you?
Are you two friends?
We held a concert together...
- in the past. - He should've recognized him then.
I wanted to say a word about his identity so much...
a while ago,
but no one gave me the chance to say it.
You kept saying that you had no idea behind us.
- He had no idea. - He didn't know.
Say something for me.
You even put down your mic.
- He thought it was Park Jung Soo. - Goodness.
He was so sure...
that it was Park Jung Soo.
I missed him so much.
- I missed you too. - We worked in the same generation.
I'm so glad to see him again...
as if I've met my old-time colleague after a long time.
Let's see each other often from now on.
In conclusion, you guys...
aren't close enough to recognize each other by hearing one's voice.
(Laughing)
You have to see his face to be sure.
(We hope to see you more often from now on.)
People may have forgotten...
about who he is as a singer...
because a lot of time passed.
But his voice seems to be remembered...
deeply in our hearts indeed.
It must be because ...
his sincerity was well-portrayed in his songs.
I expressed it as his weapon,
but I also think that's why...
his songs touched a lot of people.
He left your sides for a while...
and came back through this program.
Both on and off stage,
he's still a successful artist.
Please give him a round of applause.
(We'll look forward to seeing your future activities.)
I thought I'd never be able...
to perform on stage again,
but my name kept being mentioned multiple times.
My fans contacted me too, and I thought people...
still had interest in me.
That made me want to try again.
It was so nice to see you again.
I'll set more good examples now.
Thank you.
As the result of Round Two,
Scallop to the Throne won against Kim Hyun Sung...
and advanced to Round Three.
It's the second match of Round Two.
He won against Namoo of BYEBYESEA.
Now, he's ready to defeat the masked queen.
Play with Your Right and Left Hand,
Game Boy.
(Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy)
(He'll play combinations to the throne.)
(He'll play until he beats the final boss.)
He looks so playful.
He's relaxed too.
I like his voice.
(With his pleasant voice that makes people excited,)
(he perfectly cleared Round One.)
(He's skilled enough to take control over the stage.)
(Is he the main vocalist of a boy band?)
(He feels like an idol singer.)
(Is he a main vocalist who loves hip-hop and rhythm and blues?)
(He's full of talents.)
(Like pressing buttons on a game machine,)
(he knocked on the audience's hearts.)
(To win against Moulin Rouge and take the throne,)
(what lethal moves will he play this time?)
("Goodbye for a Moment" by M.C The Max)
(The mood is completely different compared to Round One.)
(His deep voice resonates calmly.)
(His voice strikes straight into the audience's hearts.)
(His desperate and sorrowful emotions make their hearts ache.)
("Goodbye for a Moment" is such a heartrending message.)
(Because I love you,)
(goodbye.)
(He sings out the desperate emotion from the bottom of his heart.)
(Game Boy's "Goodbye for a Moment" made everyone hold their breath.)
(They give a standing ovation unconsciously.)
Good job.
This is so unexpected.
He made me cry.
- Awesome. He's really good. - Good job.
Contending against him is this masked singer.
She won against the singer, Yang Ji Won...
with her alluring voice that you can't resist.
Don't You Know Who I Am? Moulin Rouge.
(Don't You Know Who I Am? Moulin Rouge)
(Here comes the elegant voice that will make tonight special.)
(Welcome)
She is extraordinary.
She sings so well.
(She is the master of powerful and refreshing high notes.)
(She became a strong candidate for the queen right away.)
(Is it Yu Ji Na, whose singing style is like that of folk songs?)
(Or Did Maya finally come here?)
(What did unpredictable Moulin Rouge choose for her solo performance?)
(She showed her powerful singing style in the duet.)
(With what song...)
(will she contend against Game Boy?)
(Moulin Rouge's first solo performance begins now.)
("Nocturn" by Lee Eun Mee)
Is it an original soundtrack?
Isn't it Lee Eun Mee's song?
Gosh, it's "Nocturn".
(It's "Nocturn" by Lee Eun Me, a great ballad singer.)
(She sings as if she's telling a story with her sad voice.)
(She shows the sorrowful emotion of having to break up.)
(She sounds lonely and heartbroken...)
(as if she is in the middle of pitch-black darkness.)
(Petals are falling.)
(It's too beautiful to say goodbye.)
(Emotions flood in nonstop.)
(Her skillful and composed singing...)
(makes the song eve more sorrowful.)
(It's so sad that it even sounds desperate.)
(Her delicate voice makes the listeners' hearts ache.)
("Nocturn" by Moulin Rouge was powerful yet sorrowful.)
(That was wonderful.)
Bravo.
That was awesome.
She was so emotional.
(They still have lingering feelings.)
My palms are sweaty.
The second match of Round Two is over now.
Hyun Chul,
what's your opinion about these two?
Game Boy doesn't seem to be the one who was here last week.
He looks taller too.
- Does he? - Yes.
He looks quite small last week,
but his shoulders look broader...
and so on.
He has a great lung capacity,
so I didn't even notice...
that he took a breath.
- He kept singing without breathing. - He did?
- Moulin Rouge... - What about Moulin Rouge?
interpreted the song very well.
If you sing...
on stage often, you can portray...
about 20 percent more of the feelings that you have.
(20 percent more of the feelings)
Since she was good at delivering her emotions,
I thought she might perform on stage a lot.
Ho Young thought...
Game Boy was an idol singer last week.
Is there any change in your opinion?
Apart from that opinion,
I highly recommend him to musical producers.
You want to ask them to cast him as a musical actor?
Yes.
When he makes sounds,
he knows how he can avoid hurting his vocal cords.
It was so comfortable and nice to hear.
I thought he already hit his highest notes,
but he hit even higher notes after that.
I was so surprised...
- We held our breath. - that I pulled my muscle.
(When he was hitting refreshing high notes comfortably,)
(Ho Young was so amazed.)
(Then he was shocked at even higher notes that he didn't expect.)
He was so impressive like that.
Moulin Rouge is so good...
at delivering her emotions.
I felt like I may burst into tears,
and I related to the song.
She knows how to control people's emotions.
I think she can do that...
because she performed a lot on stage.
I think she has a lot of experience...
in dealing with many people...
and successfully delivering her emotions to the audience.
She is already a successful singer, so I don't need to recommend her.
- You think she is? - Sure.
Already?
Actually, I should ask her to recommend me.
- You should? - Yes.
- Moulin Rouge... - I should ask her to take me.
Moulin Rouge's performance...
- was quite sacred. - "Sacred"?
I think maybe it is...
because she has...
a bit of a classical singing style.
When she was singing in the center of the stage,
I felt her emotions spread from there.
- But I'm afraid... - "I'm afraid..."
I fell in love with Game Boy.
(I fell in love.)
I fell in love with him.
As soon as he started his first measure,
I thought he was like a student who got a perfect score on CSAT.
The College Scholastic Ability Test?
- It's not easy to get... - You mean he's perfect?
a perfect score on the College Scholastic Ability Test...
even if you do quite well at school.
He sang perfectly in tune...
from the start to the end of the song.
And his vocalization indicates...
that he has performed a lot in front of a large audience.
But he sounds young.
He is not that old,
but he was just born to be that talented.
(A man from King of Mask Singer got a perfect score on CSAT.)
(I just tried my best to get the good result.)
So he became a genius singer as if he got a perfect score.
So if he gets married with me later...
- Wait. - What are you talking about?
You decided that on your own and...
- started writing a drama script. - If he is of my age,
- You want to marry the smart man, - it won't be a bad idea.
- and live happily after? - It's just my suggestion.
- As for Game Boy, - Game Boy.
I think he is like a boy who didn't study but only played video games.
His mom was worried about his future,
and slapped him on his back a lot.
But he became a pro gamer,
and earns hundreds of millions of dollars as prize money.
I think he is like that.
I think he is so excellent...
that he is on top of a pyramid.
He is on top of a pyramid.
I'm sure he is young,
but he has amazing skills.
- So he is... - What are you doing, Seong Ju?
- What was that for? - Bong Sun.
- You're almost there. - You are almost there.
Is he a pro gamer?
No, he is not.
(Clueless blinking)
He is someone like that.
(Someone like that? What does it mean?)
- She said something very close. - Bong Sun.
- Bong Sun. - His mom disapproved of him, right?
Keep going.
- Does he live in Egypt? - Egypt? All of a sudden?
- Because of the pyramid. - She said he's on top of a pyramid.
What else did you say? Please continue.
- And there... - I said something about the top.
- Is that it? - Yes.
That's it. There's nothing more.
- He lives in a penthouse. - I meant...
- Oh no. - A penthouse.
Is it about prize money?
Are you mocking me now?
- No. - Seong Ju is confusing us.
No, I'm not.
- What is it then? - I heard what she said.
But there was nothing that could be a clue.
Bong Sun.
He just mocked me.
You can't do that. She's an old maid.
All right. I'm sorry.
You can't make fun of an old maid like that.
I just wanted to help you guys.
I believe Game Boy would understand what I'm talking about though.
When it's hard to guess, you should see their specialty.
Moulin Rouge goes first. I'll let you hear her real voice.
She'll mimic Lee So Ra's singing.
(I'll tell you)
(She imitates the detailed gestures.)
(Let's get married)
- All right. - That's funny.
She sounds like Lee So Ra with a bad toothache.
Can you please show us a little more?
(She starts singing again as the instructor directs.)
That part.
(Let's pull out that tooth now.)
(Satisfied)
She has a toothache.
All right. Now, she'll sing Lee Sun Hee's song.
It's not easy to mimic her voice.
- That's not easy. - She's a great singer.
All right. Show us.
(The dusk begin to fall behind my back)
(I'm sitting by the river)
(The little giant is here!)
(She copies Lee Sun Hee's clear and distinct voice.)
She sounds the same.
(She perfectly mimicked Lee Sun Hee's difficult singing.)
She's very good.
I'll let you hear Game Boy's real voice then.
He'll sing Ha Dong Gyun's "Butterfly"...
with various singers' voices.
First, he sings the song in Kim Gun Mo's voice.
(Butterfly)
(The name I called you)
He sings very well.
- He's on a roll. - Next, it's Park Hyo Shin.
("Butterfly" in Park Hyo Shin's voice)
(You smiled at me)
(Surprised)
(He sings in a soulful and emotional voice.)
Lastly, it's K.will.
(I miss you)
(I miss your face)
(Admiring greatly)
K.will was a good one.
That was amazing.
I liked K.will's voice.
That was a good one.
He sounds just like K.will.
Seung Kwan, I know you're good at voice mimicry .
- Yes, I am. - I know.
I made people laugh by mimicking BMK's voice the other day.
- Yes, you did. - I'll show it again.
That's good. Seung Kwan sings "Butterfly" in BMK's voice.
(He starts singing.)
(Trumpet sounds)
(People are supposed to burst into laughter by now.)
It doesn't work anymore.
(The instructor admits his mistake quickly.)
That was a good finish.
You did a good job.
- Well done. - In a situation like this,
- Making people laugh isn't easy. - it isn't easy to succeed.
- I know. It's hard. - It's not so fun...
when you do something again.
- Ken, why don't you give it a try? - All right.
He should support Seung Kwan.
Right. Ken has a lot of specialties.
- All right. - Can you show us?
I'll sing "Butterfly" in Ha Dong Gyun's voice first.
(Butterfly)
(The name I called you)
That was good.
- And there is... - Okay.
- He's good. - Kim Yeon Woo.
- Kim Yeon Woo? - Yes.
(The better Ken performs, the more nervous Seung Kwan gets.)
(I can't back out like this.)
I'm sorry. Let me show you something.
- Seung Kwan. - I just got so competitive.
- Seung Kwan. - I have to do something.
You should do something.
(We're the masked singers, but why are they getting so competitive?)
I'll sing "Butterfly" in Han Dong Geun's voice.
"Butterfly" in Han Dong Geun's voice.
(First, he laughs like Han Dong Geun.)
Thank you. I'm Singer Han Dong Geun.
(Butterfly)
(I miss your face)
That's good.
Well done.
- Thank you. - He's so good.
Seung Kwan, you're amazing.
- About Moulin Rouge. - Seong Ju.
- Yes? - They just livened up the mood.
So you should give us a hint.
What? Wait.
We should exchange words to make this show more fun.
But we have nothing to say now.
This is not going well.
Am I being too obstinate?
- You're being too obstinate? - You think?
We need some rice...
to cook porridge, but we don't even have a grain.
- All right. - We're just boiling water.
- I'll talk to the production crew. - We're starving.
All right. Do you want a hint for whom?
- Who do you want to know about? - I'm curious about Game Boy.
You have no idea about him?
- We have no idea. - Not at all.
We did a lot of things for you. It's all about give and take.
(All right then.)
(Squatting)
- What's that? - What is he doing?
(Is that a hint?)
Up and down?
- Uptown? - That's not it.
I just gave you a good hint.
What was that?
He just squatted down and stood back up.
- I'm sure it means something. - Excuse me. Seong Ju.
If you say it's a hint, there might be an uprising from here.
- An uprising? - Wait.
- Excuse me. - Someone just got it from my hint.
- Really? - Who got it?
- Who? - I can't give you more hints.
- Did someone get it? - Yes. It's Moulin Rouge's turn now.
You can't just skip this by nodding.
- We're the ones who need a hint. - We need a hint.
- Our viewers might be upset. - I might get fired.
- Let's not do this. - What?
Someone just got it right.
We'd be in trouble.
It's Moulin Rouge's turn.
She can make the sound of wiping windows.
She's wiping windows.
Please wipe the windows, Moulin Rouge.
(Blowing on a window)
(Wiping carefully)
That's it.
This doesn't count. She should wipe it up and down.
I've seen a lot of people wiping windows.
(Kan Mi Youn wiped a window in a cute way.)
(And Choi Yoo Jung was highly praised by Gu Ra with her wiping.)
It's spring. You should wipe it wider.
(Do you like it now?)
All right. Good.
Now, I'll let you hear Game Boy's real voice.
He'll mimic the sounds of animals.
It's the sound of a turtle dove coming from a mountain.
It's a turtle dove.
(Imitating a birdcall)
(Firm)
(What do we do? What can we do now?)
Did he live in the countryside?
I like to imitate the sound of animals too.
What can you do?
I can imitate the sound of a big dog and a pterodactyl.
- Can you do that? - Let's hear that pterodactyl.
- A pterodactyl? - Yes.
(He gets ready and fires.)
(Startled)
(Screaming)
(They burst into laughter.)
Give us a hint now.
Give us a hint.
- We need a hint. - I'll show you one more then.
- It's a small dog. - A small dog.
(A small dog.)
And it's a big dog.
(A big dog)
- Give us a hint. - You should give one.
- You should give us one. - It's worth it.
- Give us a hint. - Give us one now.
You should definitely give us a hint.
We want a hint.
A pterodactyl is the hint.
Okay. I get it.
It's him.
- What was that? - Look. Seong Ju looks surprised.
And I think this earlier meant some alphabet.
That's right.
(I'm sorry, Director.)
Seong Ju is in trouble again.
I guess Seong Ju cries every day these days.
All right. I just got...
the result of the second match of Round Two.
The match was decided...
by a margin of three votes.
(The match was decided by a margin of 3 votes.)
(That's unbelievable.)
I'll now reveal the winner of this match...
who will move on to Round Three.
(He showed off his heart-breaking emotional voice.)
(Game Boy is a sentimental rock ballad singer.)
(But she's quite a match.)
(She dominated the stage with her suffocating, desperate voice.)
(Moulin Rouge is a diva with a fascinating voice.)
Game Boy versus Moulin Rouge.
Who is the winner of this match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Please.
Who's the winner?
(Is it Game Boy, who has a steady voice?)
(Or is it Moulin Rouge, who sings powerful high-pitched notes?)
(Who will move on to Round Three and challenge the throne?)
Whose voice did you choose?
The winner is...
(Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy wins.)
Game Boy wins.
(Cheering)
Yes! I told you!
(They get to hear Game Boy's voice again.)
He was so good.
That was so close.
Game Boy moves on to Round Three.
(The score is 51 to 48.)
Game Boy moves on to Round Three.
With a score of 51 to 48, Game Boy moves on to Round Three.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Please give him a big hand.
It was a good game. It was a tight match.
Queen of Mask Singer, I'm almost there. Please wait for me.
I'm afraid we should reveal her identity here.
I'm sorry about that. Please move to the rear of the stage.
Now, Moulin Rouge, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(She's excellent in expressing her feelings.)
(Is she a classical vocal performer who feels comfortable on stage?)
(She caught people's eyes with her fascinating voice.)
(Who is Moulin Rouge?)
Now, Moulin Rouge, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(Shocked)
Who is it? Why?
Who is she?
(Who is Moulin Rouge, the singer who made the panelists anxious?)
Please reveal your face.
She is...
the musical actress with 20 years of experience, Shin Young Sook.
(Shin Young Sook, the actress of the musical, "Rebecca"?)
(Moulin Rouge was the charismatic actress, Shin Young Sook.)
(Welcome.)
Wasn't she in "Rebecca"?
Could you greet the viewers?
Hello. I am the musical actress, Shin Young Sook.
It's nice to meet you.
(In 1999, she made a debut as a confident actress...)
(through the musical, "The Last Empress".)
(She's famous for playing different characters in unique ways.)
(She dominates the stage with her wide-ranged and powerful voice.)
(Over 20 years, she's been on many master musical pieces.)
(In the musical, "Rebecca", she played Mrs. Danvers.)
(And she overwhelmed the audience with her charismatic acting.)
(Winning a variety of awards for her performance,)
(she established herself as the queen of musicals.)
(She became the master on "The Master".)
(With her crazy singing ability, she proved her class.)
(Her acting and voice proved her to be the golden star on stage.)
(Young Sook is the deep-rooted tree of the musical scene.)
With 20 years of experience,
you are a veteran musical actress.
- Right. - I heard you were very worried,
whenever you performed on stage.
Well, I usually sing...
classical and musical songs.
So when it comes to pop songs, I am like a novice.
I practiced seven hours a day...
like a student...
preparing to get into music school.
- I see. - Yes.
I asked her what prejudice she wanted to shatter.
And she said she wants to look more friendly than feisty now.
I always played charismatic roles with strong presences...
like Empress Myeongseong.
So the audience got scared of me.
Whenever I met up with them after the performance,
they walked backwards away from me.
They were scared of me.
- They got intimidated by you. - Right.
But I normally approach them in a friendly way.
I am very nice to my fans.
I am actually a friendly person...
who is just like your big sister.
You are like a lovely big sister.
That stage...
might have been very small for her.
However, I think it was a great opportunity...
to show that she is actually a gentle person...
who is like a young girl.
As her friend, I am happy.
Actually, until mid-March,
she and I worked in a same musical.
- Really? - But whenever I tried...
to say hi to her and open the door,
she was making this sound.
She was doing this too.
Was she?
And that made me wonder why she was doing that.
When she was there for the musical.
- Finally, I know the reason. - You must've wondered.
Finally, I know what she was doing.
You must've practiced whenever you had time.
- I did. - Anyway, no more words...
are necessary to describe who Young Sook is.
She's an actress who is respected by many fellow artists.
Unlike a pop music novice, she performed amazingly.
She put on performances of various genres for us.
Please give a round of applause for Young Sook.
Thank you.
(We will cheer for the natural born actress, Young Sook.)
Thank you.
(We will cheer for the natural born actress, Young Sook.)
For 20 years,
I constantly performed on stage without taking any breaks.
My mother loved...
seeing me being praised and shining on stage.
But she was always anxious that I might make a mistake.
She couldn't handle watching my performance.
I think she will be able to watch King of Mask Singer...
in the comfort of her own home.
I hope appearing here...
will let many people remember me.
Please look forward to seeing me on stage,
and come to see my performances.
I am Shin Young Sook.
Thank you.
Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy...
beat Young Sook and made it to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
To stop Swordswoman from winning for the fourth time,
two masked singers have made it to Final Round.
We will bring them back on stage once again.
Please welcome them with a big hand.
Who will end up becoming Swordswoman's rival?
Round Three will be a match...
between a female singer and a male singer.
It will be a very interesting match.
How do you feel, Scallop?
It's like I am dreaming.
Queen,
come down from the throne. I will scallop to the throne.
(She says she's coming up here.)
She's very attached to her nickname.
She will scallop to the throne.
Game Boy, please say something too.
(Game Boy will say something this time.)
Your Majesty,
did you warm up the chair?
(She burns with anger.)
Both of them have provoked the queen.
Queen, you've watched both of their performances.
How do you feel right now?
(She sounds anxious.)
I am very nervous.
Both of them sing so well.
So I am very nervous.
You don't have a preference between the two, do you?
Both of them are so good.
So I don't really have a preference.
It sounds like she doesn't mind who makes it.
- Is that it? - That's not it.
(Laughing)
(She's not swayed by Seong Joo's joke.)
All right. Now, let's begin Round Three,
Final Round.
Let's see Scallop's performance first.
(Scallop will strike first.)
- Lovely. - Cheers.
(Scallop shines on the stage.)
(There's a thrilling tension in the air.)
(Will Scallop be able to beat the talented singers...)
(and ascend to the throne?)
("Rain" by Tae Yeon)
This is what she chose.
I love the song she chose.
(We're excited about Scallop's performance.)
(Oh, dear.)
(She starts the performance with her charming voice.)
(She sings as if she's whispering.)
(Her voice captures our attention even more.)
(It's amazing.)
(As the song intensifies, she controls the tempo more perfectly.)
(Who is she really?)
(This is driving me crazy.)
(The entire stage is under Scallop's control.)
(I love it.)
(Her attractive voice and breath...)
(made us focus on the performance.)
(Even her scatting sounds gorgeous.)
(Her powerful voice overwhelms the entire stage.)
(Scallop performed "Rain" and sang every single note thoroughly.)
(Scallop is truly amazing.)
She's good. She's very good.
I like the feeling.
It was beautiful.
It was amazing.
Here comes her opponent.
He beat Namoo from BYEBYESEA...
and Shin Young Sook, a musical actress.
He will clear the missions until he reaches Final Match.
Play with Your Right and Left Hand,
Game Boy.
(Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy.)
(Let's go play the last game.)
(He is confident.)
(When you play a game, you have to win the game.)
(Screaming)
Show us your ability.
He looks confident.
I'm so curious to know what song he will perform.
(He beat powerful enemies and made it to Round Three,)
(which makes our expectations on him higher.)
(To beat another strong enemy, Scallop,)
(and reach the throne,)
(what is his last command?)
(The piano plays a familiar melody.)
("To Her Lover" by K2)
My goodness. Seriously.
(This famous rock ballad song from the 1990s makes many men emotional.)
(He sings with a tender voice unlike what he did in Round Two.)
(Game Machine reminds us of our memories.)
(It's amazing.)
(Goodness, he's so good.)
(He's so cool.)
(Even after hitting the high notes continuously,)
(his emotion doesn't get swayed.)
(Look at how he breathes.)
(He let go of the emotions he has been keeping inside.)
(Game Boy's "To Her Lover" swept the whole stage like a tornado.)
This is unbelievable!
That was so nice!
(Howling)
He's really good.
His voice was...
This is insane.
Final Round is now over.
Swordswoman currently holds the throne.
How did you find their performances?
They're really good.
They made me sigh.
I think I have never been so nervous like this.
Really?
Today, I'm really nervous.
It's hard to predict the result of this match.
They're both really good.
I'm also really curious to know how it will turn out.
- I see. - Yes.
Then Swordswoman,
you may now go backstage...
and get ready for the Final Match.
Everyone, please her a big hand.
(See you soon.)
Swordswoman is now aiming for her fourth successive victory.
Young Seok, how did you like their performances?
When Swordswoman said she's nervous,
I think she really meant it.
Today, even I feel nervous.
- Do you? - It's amazing.
As for Scallop,
as a musician, you can't buy some things with money.
Those would be one's voice tone, soul, and musical sense.
Scallop is a very lucky woman.
- She has all three. - Really?
She has a good voice tone and a good soul.
She has everything, and they are balanced.
Even her balance skills are great.
Those who want to be singers should listen to her singing and study.
I think they should study how she sings.
This performance was that great.
- Was it? - Yes.
- She was better than earlier? - Yes.
As for Game Boy,
He showed us surprisingly great skills in Round Two,
which made me wonder what he would do in Round Three.
I was expectant and worried at the same time.
But he was amazing.
His performance makes me...
keep thinking of it.
When I have dinner at home after the show,
I will be reminded of his great performance.
His emotion makes me keep thinking about his performance.
I'll want to hear him again later.
Exactly.
We should learn techniques and such...
from Scallop...
while we should learn the attitude towards music...
and the singing stance...
from Game Boy.
I think music students should learn from them.
- Something really overwhelmed me. - Yes, Jang Hyuk.
Many people think rock ballad music...
is an old-fashioned music from the 1990s.
Even I don't use rock ballad techniques when I sing.
But while listening to Game Boy's performance,
I came to think rock ballad will come back if one sings like that.
- You think it'll be popular again. - Yes, if one sings like him,
this genre will be loved by many people again.
Music lovers always wait...
for a new singer to appear.
Like you said earlier,
we've been waiting for new rockers in their 20s...
who have a pure voice...
like Position or Isu.
I think we finally met the new rocker today.
- That's what I think. - What a meaningful day it is.
(Of course.)
Actually, I stopped doing exit polls recently.
I thought it was meaningless because the queen was so powerful.
But I think it's time to move my fingers now.
I'm thinking of doing an exit poll today.
- We need an exit poll today. - Yes.
The way I see it,
Game Boy is gathering momentum.
He's on the upswing.
I think if he wins this round, it'll be hard for the queen...
- to defeat him. - I see.
That's what I think.
- The atmosphere also matters. - Yes. It's favorable for him.
- He's talented and on the upswing. - He's continuing his way up.
I believe she has a very good understanding of music.
I'm sure she writes songs too.
I actually love getting massages.
- Okay. - I love sports massages.
- You also get scalp massages often. - Yes. Sports massages.
The thing about sports massages...
is that just pressing down hard on your body like this...
- doesn't make you feel good. - Right.
There are spots that need to be pressed hard...
and spots that need to be pressed gently.
You can feel good at home only then.
If the masseur keeps pressing down your body hard,
you get sick later.
- It makes your body ache. - Yes. It aches even more.
What I'm trying to say is that Scallop knows...
when she needs to go hard or soft.
It's not a very nice metaphor, but it's easy...
- Word spread that... - to understand.
I like getting hard massages,
and a man who weighs 80kg stepped on my body.
So I...
You paid money to get beaten up.
- It's your personal story again. - I think Scallop has...
a very good understanding of music.
She probably writes songs and plays many musical instruments.
Here is something I find unfortunate.
Scallop is clearly an excellent vocalist...
who has already reached the top.
She has everything including experience and sensibility.
There's no need to even talk about this.
On the other hand, Game Boy is a genius like I said before.
He's a genius vocalist,
but it feels like he lacks experience.
I somehow felt it from his performance.
It made me think that he's probably...
- younger than I thought. - Right.
So maybe I can teach him about love...
and emotions.
That's enough, Lady Jane.
- You can do that over my dead body. - It might help him.
Hold on, Lady Jane.
- It's just a suggestion. - You proposed to him in Round Two,
- and now, you are being explicit. - I love you.
She's completely into Game Boy.
She's captivated by him. She keeps sending him hearts.
- But I feel very tired. - Yes, Ho Young?
While I continued to listen their songs,
I felt like I was the protagonist of a drama, and I imagined a scene.
Here is the scene I imagined.
- On a rainy day, - It's raining.
I'm in a cart bar...
while having beef soup and soju.
- Soju with warm soup. - Yes.
As I start to get drunk,
I think of my ex-girlfriend,
and I check her page on social media.
- Wanting to see how she's doing. - Yes.
But I see pictures of her being happy with her new boyfriend.
- That'd be so upsetting. - Then I start...
- to get jealous. - Of course.
So I grab the soju bottle,
- No! - go out...
on the street, and walk in the rain.
I'm walking in the rain. Seeing her being so happy...
makes me feel relieved...
and jealous at the same time. I have mixed feelings.
- You must be drunk. - I'm totally drunk. Gosh.
- It's still raining, - It's raining.
and I walk home.
That's how I feel now.
- You're exhausted. - I am.
- I know what you should do. - What?
Get a massage.
- A massage? - Get a massage.
It'd help you.
The master will give you advice.
If it's too hard, tell the masseur to go easy.
(Thanks for the tip.)
That's how touching their performances were.
I see.
If it's rock music, we should hear from Yoon Seok.
- You're right. - We should hear his opinion.
He's always waiting for the new rocker.
To be honest, I've been waiting for rock music.
I've been hungry for rock music.
I've even been longing for rock music.
But today, I finally found rock music.
- Yes. - I'm sure everyone felt this too.
As the song came to the climax,
his singing sounded so liberating with a great vibrato.
(He liberates the panel with his singing.)
He's a singer who must be in a rock band.
- That's what I think. - I see.
As for Scallop, the raindrops were rising upward on the screen.
She also sang in a way that defies gravity.
It means she's a sorceress of music.
- A sorceress of music. - Her song was magical.
It felt like I was looking at "The Birth of Venus".
Her performance feels like a classic masterpiece.
That was a great comment.
All right. Now, I will announce...
the result of Final Round.
Who will be the winner of Final Round, Round Three?
Scallop sang about the memories pouring down like a heavy rain.
Game Boy feels like the strongest boss on the final stage of a game.
Let's find out the masked singer who will move on to Final Match!
Who will become the rival of the queen?
(Her singing sounds refreshing like a shower in summer.)
(A textbook singer, Scallop)
(Opposing her is Game Boy, a singer who sang a true rock ballad.)
(He showed the most touching and sorrowful performance.)
Between Scallop and Game Boy,
whom does the audience want to see again?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Nervous)
(Round Three was a neck-and-neck match.)
(Which masked singer will challenge the queen?)
Between Scallop and Game Boy,
who will become the rival of Swordswoman?
The winner is...
(Play with Your Right and Left Hand, Game Boy wins.)
Game Boy won.
(Game Boy won Round Three!)
(It was a thrilling match.)
We will rock you!
He's a dark horse.
The score is 63 to 36.
Game Boy is truly on the rise.
I think his high spirits will put a lot of pressure on the queen.
All right. Please go to the back of the stage.
Let's give him a big hand.
(Scallop's identity will be revealed.)
Game Boy.
Queen of Mask Singer, wait for me.
Who could she be?
Let's find out.
Please come to the back, Scallop.
Now, Scallop, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(She has a great voice, soul, and sense of music.)
(She has a good understanding of music.)
(She's a singer who has reached the top.)
(She's like a textbook to those who want to be a singer.)
(She's a sorceress of music.)
Reveal your face.
She is...
(Astonished)
(Screaming)
What?
(They're screaming like crazy.)
They burst out cheering.
She is...
the amazing vocalist of Brown Eyed Girls,
JeA!
(Scallop was JeA!)
Of course!
Oh, my gosh.
No wonder she was so good.
It's JeA of Brown Eyed Girls!
Please say hello to our viewers.
Hello, everyone. I'm JeA of Brown Eyed Girls. Good to see you.
(Brown Eyed Girls is a group with multiple hit songs.)
(JeA is their charismatic leader.)
(The stage almost explodes when she hits the high notes.)
(Her group has topped the music shows...)
(and won various music awards.)
(JeA took part in writing "We Fell in Love"...)
(and even the title track of Brown Eyed Girls' album.)
(She's also a songwriter who has extraordinary musicality.)
(She has sung soundtracks of many movies and dramas.)
(She has a unique style of dancing,)
(and she's actually a very cute person.)
(Her charms captivate fans like a black hole.)
She has so many charms, okay?
(She has released a solo album with a maturer sensibility.)
(JeA is a singer with a voice as beautiful as a pearl.)
You were once on our show as My Best Friend Electric Fan.
- You competed against Kim Yeon Ji. - That's right.
Yeon Ji became the queen then.
(Unfortunately, she failed to become the Queen of Mask Singer.)
How did you feel? It must've felt special to be here again.
I actually thought to myself, "Let's just make it to Round Three."
It's because my fans were really curious what I was going to sing...
in Round Three the last time.
I was so full of regrets that I couldn't sing it back then,
but I made it to Round Three today.
You really dominated the stage with nothing but your voice.
Many people were very surprised.
- Really? - Yes.
Thank you.
Seung Kwan, did you know who she was?
Absolutely. I'm a big fan of Brown Eyed Girls'.
- I loved her solo album too. - Really?
- "Harmony" is my favorite song. - Really?
The way you sang "Sunset Glow"...
was very similar to how you sang...
- "Sixth Sense". - You're right.
That's when I realized that she was JeA.
I heard that many young people think you're a vocal trainer,
not a singer. Is that true?
Many middle school students don't know Brown Eyed Girls.
I was very surprised, but I was touched...
when we had our concert last year.
One third of the audience were middle school students.
I asked them how they came to our concert,
and they said that they looked up our group online out of curiosity.
We're getting student fans once again.
I'd like to take this opportunity...
to say that I hope many students...
in middle school...
will learn about Brown Eyed Girls...
- and become my fans. - How do you expect yourself...
to look younger with that kind of gestures?
- Aren't you being too greedy? - I mean...
Really? I thought I was being cute.
Your gestures did seem to be a little excessive.
You looked like a funny, frivolous person.
Your gestures looked overly mature.
Really?
- She taught me how to sing. - She did?
- That's right. - Really?
- On "Produce 101". - Yes.
- I trained her. - I see.
Didn't you recognize her voice?
It was my first time to see her perform from the start to the end.
I wasn't sure if it was really her.
I guess I wasn't so quick-witted.
Goodness.
Are you preparing for a variety of activities?
My second solo album will be released this year...
- during the 2nd half after 5 years. - I see.
Guys, I hope you listen to my songs a lot.
(Okay)
That's good news.
She filled the entire studio...
only with her voice today.
She's the standard of vocalists.
Please give her another round of applause.
Thank you.
(It was the best.)
Actually, I compose songs and do my work,
but I rarely get complimented by others.
But here, I received a lot of compliments...
like how I was good with music.
I felt great, and my fans would love to watch this as well.
But the mask seems to jinx the result.
My mask in the past looked a bit light.
But with this mask on, I happened to do this gesture.
People kept on saying that I looked aged.
I shouldn't have wriggled.
I thought I'd look innocent like a mermaid princess.
But I guess it looked so old.
Everyone, Scallop to the Throne was me, JeA.
Please continue to love me.
As the result of Round Three, Game Boy won...
against JeA of Brown Eyed Girls and advanced to the final round.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Now, we only have the defensive performance...
of our masked queen, A Woman of Her Own, Swordswoman.
Will Swordswoman be able to protect her throne this time as well?
It's the battle to decide the 74th masked king.
Let the current masked queen's performance begin.
It's the match to decide who will become the 74th masked king.
She'll put her soul in her song to win four consecutive times.
She's the 73rd masked queen.
A Woman of Her Own, Swordswoman.
(With the glorious halo,)
(the masked queen enters the stage in a relaxed manner.)
(So many people have waited only for her.)
How could she have such an aura with that small figure of hers?
The dignity of the masked queen.
She's so cool.
Her performance must be good.
I've never heard her sing live.
It's unbelievable.
- Is it? - It's unbelievable.
(She has shown her unbelievable performances...)
(and managed to win 3 times in a row.)
(However, the challenger is more competitive than any other time.)
(What will be her hidden card to defeat him?)
(Strong rock music fills the prelude of the song.)
(It feels like her performance is going to be something.)
Something is coming.
Goodness. I feel it.
("Love Never Fade" by Seo Moon Tak)
(She's done taking over the studio only by singing the first line.)
(Along with the explosive high notes,)
(the sorrowful emotion that follows is irresistible.)
(Her 4-minute performance was full of thrills.)
(It was the best.)
(The audience can't easily get out from the lingering emotions.)
(This is the class of the masked queen's performance.)
It feels like riding a roller coaster.
- This is too much. - She's way too good.
How...
How could her voice stay here?
Final Round is over now.
Kai.
If you look at the history of the classical music,
there's a term called "virtuoso".
It's the nickname used for the greatest artists such as...
the violinist, Niccolo Paganini, or the pianist, Franz Liszt.
I must say Swordswoman...
is the virtuoso singer of the modern music industry.
- "Virtuoso". - Here's what I mean.
She's well aware...
about what side of herself the public likes the most.
The public can't help but to be fascinated by her.
So we wait for her to come up on stage.
And we get excited just to see her perform.
I think...
she should be called as the virtuoso singer...
for those aspects of hers.
She must've studied...
and trained for those aspects. She must be born with them as well.
She has succeeded to become a virtuoso.
That's my opinion.
You know, I made up my mind...
to vote for Game Boy beforehand...
and watched her performance.
We all know...
that the masked queen is amazing at singing.
So I braced myself...
and was determined not to change my choice before watching this.
I don't know how time passed by,
but about 3 to 4 minutes flew by like a split second.
She was closing her performance when I came back to my senses.
(Her performance raged like a storm.)
I was completely immersed in it.
When it ended, I was lifted from her magic spell.
She's the masked queen indeed.
I can sense her long-term seizure of the throne.
She must have too many performances left yet...
to step down from her throne now.
It was enough to convince the strong supporter of Game Boy.
Game Boy was awesome today too.
Actually, I thought he'd be an idol singer...
who was simply good at singing during Round One.
But during Round Two and Round Three,
he was better than my first expectation.
He just grabbed...
the audience's attention.
But when the masked queen started to sing,
I was like...
this was just too much.
Goodness, how could she be so incredibly good?
That's what I thought.
I felt like I was quickly frozen during the performance too.
- Time really flew by. - I watched it in a daze.
I see. Great.
Gu Ra,
did you check the votes among the panelists?
The result seems to be depressing.
- Is it? - Yes.
But you said it was competitive.
But it's not easy.
He got four votes among us.
- Among the panelists. - Yes.
Ken, Me, Hyun Chul, and Yoon Seok voted for him.
Why would he open that?
Most of the panelists voted for the queen.
- Why did you reveal that? - Our votes...
- Why did you say... - Our votes...
- Why did you reveal it? - Our votes are very precious.
We get so embarrassed because of that.
- Seriously. - You're mean.
- Exit polls are just exit polls. - Sure.
- According to Gu Ra, it's 8 to 4. - Yes, it's 8 to 4.
So that means Lady Jane didn't vote for Game Boy either.
- That's why I got upset. - I'm disappointed in Lady Jane.
How could you reveal that?
I didn't. I only revealed that the four of us voted for him.
(That's ridiculous.)
- Gosh. - But there are only two candidates.
- He's so brazen. - I only talked about us.
- I didn't talk about you. - There are only two candidates.
We voted for his potential.
- That's what rock is about. - It seems so.
Ken of VIXX. We just talked about the exit polls.
I was shocked.
I didn't know Gu Ra would tell everyone about it.
Didn't you tell me that so I can reveal it?
- No, I didn't. - Really?
Anyway, I listened to the queen sing, and I thought...
- she was the best. - Is Game Boy unlucky to meet her?
- You may think that way. - But...
(But, my dear Game Boy,)
(you know I root for you, right?)
The two of them seem to exchange messages.
Seung Kwan, what do you think?
I've heard a lot about Swordswoman and watched her on TV too,
but she's even more amazing to see her performance myself.
I think everyone felt the same.
I believe these 99 people felt like they were riding a roller coaster.
Isn't that right?
They're nodding. Thank you.
As a matter of fact,
I have never had goosebumps like this before...
when I watched someone sing live.
- I really appreciate it. - All right.
Eun Bin, it was your first time to watch the queen sing here.
- Yes. - What do you think?
I really thought it was a recorded sound.
When a person sings a song live,
you are supposed to hear some heavy breathing...
or a note slightly out of tune.
But there was nothing like that at all.
But everything was perfect...
when she was singing.
So it didn't sound like a sound from a human,
but from a CD player.
- Was it like a recorded song? - Yes.
I realized what the true Queen of Mask Singer is like.
(Exclaiming)
I see. All right.
It was a match of rock music, that was fiercer than ever.
Who will be the winner?
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
The result of 74th Final Match is in my hands now.
Will Swordswoman...
be able to win four consecutive times...
like Kim Yeon Woo and Gummy?
Or will Game Boy, who is on the rise,
open an era of a new king?
By which masked singer is your heart captivated?
I will now reveal the result.
(His voice is refreshing and cheerful.)
(His song was rhythmical in Round One.)
(His emotions explode with his high notes.)
(He showed a shocking performance no one expected in Round Two.)
(His song was so sorrowful in Round Three.)
(Game Boy has an unlimited vocal ability.)
(However,)
(the queen's intimidating charisma makes us hold our breath.)
(Her enormously powerful voice bewitches everyone.)
(Swordswoman is literally one of the most powerful vocalists.)
Swordswoman versus Game Boy.
Between the two,
who will be the 74th king or queen?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
I won't watch it.
I can't watch it either. Gosh.
(The match between the zealous rockers.)
(After the face-off between the two powerful rockers,)
(who gets to take the throne?)
The winner is...
(King of Mask Singer)
Will it be Game Boy, the new challenger?
Or will it be Swordswoman, who is trying to win for the fourth time?
The winner is...
(A Woman of Her Own, Swordswoman wins.)
Swordswoman wins four consecutive times.
(Her long-term seizure of power has begun now.)
(As the fierce match ends,)
(the panel shows contrast reactions.)
That's too bad, Game Boy.
What's the score?
The 74th Queen of Mask Singer...
(27 to 72)
is Swordswoman.
She won the 71st, 72nd, 73rd, and 74th Final Matches...
and succeeded in winning four consecutive times.
The gown and the golden mask are presented to her again.
(Congratulations)
Okay.
(Thank you.)
You succeeded in winning four consecutive times...
and joined the ranks of Kim Yeon Woo and Gummy.
Could you say how you feel now?
I feel so honored...
to join the ranks of them.
I'll hold on to the throne as much as possible.
She wants to hold on to the throne as much as possible.
Since she became the 71st Queen of Mask Singer,
she continued to win the 72nd, 73rd, and 74th Final Match too.
She now begins her long-term seizure of power.
That was Swordswoman.
But we have someone on the rise here.
From Round Two to Round Three,
even the queen was terrified by Game Boy.
I'll give you a chance to say something before taking it off.
Satisfied.
(Laughing)
"Satisfied."
It was very simple. "Satisfied."
Good. Now,
please move to the back.
It's time for you to take off your mask.
Now, Game Boy,
please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(His voice is so powerful that he doesn't seem to breathe.)
(He was on the rise by captivating women's hearts.)
(Is he someone who has been to the top of a pyramid?)
(Does Gu Ra's greed have no end...)
(and is Seong Ju repeating the same mistake?)
(Will their deduction about Game Boy be right?)
Please take off your mask, and reveal your face.
He is...
(Oh, my goodness.)
- Why? - Who is it?
They like it even when he's just shaking his hair.
Who are you?
He is...
Yoo Hwe Seung, the vocalist...
of N.Flying, an idol band with cheerful energy.
(He was an idol singer.)
He was a member of a band.
He was a member of N.Flying.
How could he sing so well?
He is such a good singer.
I didn't know he was that good when he was sitting here as a panelist.
He is Yoo Hwe Seung, the vocalist of N.Flying.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello. I'm Yoo Hwe Seung, the youngest vocalist...
of N.Flying.
(He was noticed for his singing on "Produce 101".)
(Not only did he have amazing singing skills,)
(but he also had great charms.)
(He made a debut as a vocalist of N.Flying after that.)
(He looks so relaxed on stage even if he is a rookie.)
(They held their concert in Korea and Japan.)
(N.Flying's First Concert in Japan)
(They're becoming popular as a band with great skills.)
(He is also very cheerful and frivolous,)
(so he got the nickname, Pleasant Hwe Seung.)
(But he is actually a mature guy who served in the military.)
(He's a powerful vocalist with both skills and talents.)
(Lovely and cheerful Yoo Hwe Seung)
You have joined our show as a panelist too.
On the audition show last year,
he was loved a lot for his great vocal ability.
His name is Yoo Hwe Seung.
How old is he?
He is 24 years old.
24 years old.
- 24... - I might get arrested then.
- "Arrested"? - I can love him alone, right?
- Sure. He was behind the mask. - Right.
It's not a problem to love one's voice.
- He's 24. - You faced a crisis, Seong Ju.
- When I said, "Flying"... - Right.
I was hinting the "N" when you mentioned the pterodactyl.
- Then... - I see.
Up and down?
("N" and a pterodactyl?)
(Seong Ju froze)
- Then what about the story I said? - What?
- The story I said. - I'll explain about that.
Your parents disapproved of you becoming a singer, right?
Yes, that's right.
My parents have run a karaoke bar since I was little.
As I had a lot of chances to sing songs in karaoke rooms,
I loved singing a lot and started to dream of becoming a singer.
But my parents disapproved it so severely...
that I went to an ordinary school...
and served in the military.
But before I was discharged from the military,
I decided to live my own life,
so I begged my parents on my knees to give me one last chance...
before I go back to school.
So I ended up on the audition show that year.
I think I should stop watching "Screening Humanity" from now.
- I see their lives now. - It was just his story.
You started to be on the rise since Round Two.
You had a special reason to choose "Goodbye for a Moment", right?
I stepped out to the world for the first time...
through "Produce 101"...
- Gosh, can I mention that show? - It doesn't matter.
On that show, I really wanted to show how I sing,
but I could only dance because I was ranked too low.
So after the performance for the contest,
I sang "Goodbye for a Moment"...
because I was so thankful to those who supported me.
But it was not aired.
That's why I wanted to sing that song one more time...
- and got prepared. - I see.
In fact, my goal was not that big when I first came here.
I just wanted to try my best to show what I've prepared.
One of my goals was to hear Gu Ra say,
"He's good."
That's all I wanted to hear today.
(Is that right?)
- I achieved my goal. - Did he do well?
He rocked.
You can't forget us.
Ken, Yoon Seok, Hyun Chul and I.
- Don't forget us. - He's right.
- Four votes came from them. - They came from us.
Four votes came from them.
- Didn't you sit next to me? - He did.
If I knew he was this good, I should've gotten his autograph.
- Doesn't he have great potential? - Of course.
It would be strange if he doesn't become successful.
Actually, the real development...
begins from lack of something.
I think his parents' disapproval stimulated him more.
I think it must've provided him a foundation to his music career.
His performance today really touched me.
Please give me an autograph later.
(Thank you.)
Many fellow artists and fans...
will pay more attention to him now.
He showed his hidden talent on King of Mask Singer.
Please give him a round of applause once more.
(We hope to see you doing your fun but serious music.)
In the middle of the performance, I got overwhelmed with emotions.
I wondered how well I would be received...
if I put on a mask and performed only with my voice.
I am very satisfied.
The people I want to show my performance to...
must be my mother and father. My family.
I thought my father was very patriarchal.
But with a big smile,
he put up a placard in the town when I debuted.
It was so cute.
I can't even put my feelings into words.
But he has never really seen me perform alone on stage.
I really hope he will watch it.
I am the youngest member of N.Flying,
Yoo Hwe Seung, who made it to Final Match.
I will pay you back by singing more great songs.
Thank you.
Next week.
(Cherry blossoms bloomed outside, and Twice bloomed here.)
(I love it.)
Queen, it's about time you come down from the throne.
I will take her down today.
This is crazy.
(The contestants fight with elegant performances...)
(and with unforgettable sentiments.)
(Did he get enchanted by someone's charming voice?)
(Talents will vary widely,)
(and shocking identities will grab our attention.)
Look forward for next week.
