The masked singers shook the studio with their extraordinary talents.
And the identity of...
the talented, charming people from different fields surprised us.
Now, these four talented people are aiming for the golden mask.
Can't I? Why Can't I? Dragon Fruit.
I Have a Rock-hard Body, Moai.
Good at Both Soccer and Singing, David Beckham.
One Day in Life, Coral Girl.
Bob Ross beat Swordsman, who had won eight times,
and became the new king.
Will he be able to succeed on his first defense match?
It starts right now.
(King of Mask Singer)
This is the first match of Round Two, Semi-finals.
He beat the former national judo athlete, Cho Jun Ho.
Please let me become the king.
Can't I? Why Can't I? Dragon Fruit.
(Can't I? Why Can't I? Dragon Fruit)
(Instead of getting a magic pearl,)
(I want to become the king.)
(We will cheer for you!)
- Rock. - He looks like a rock star.
He's got such a nice body.
Is he an idol?
- Do we not know that? - I don't think he's an idol.
(With his charming baritone voice,)
(he stole everyone's heart.)
(His baritone voice was good,)
(and his high-pitched voice was also good.)
(Is he a talented singer who has held a lot of concerts?)
(Is he someone in his 50s...)
(who managed to stay fit?)
(He's got exciting talents too.)
(His identity is a mystery. Who is he?)
(It's time to mesmerize the panelists once again.)
(Everyone has high hopes for him.)
(Dragon Fruit will beat his strong opponent...)
(by performing with his charming baritone voice on the second stage.)
("At Any Time" by Na Hun A)
Has he chosen a song that was popular in the '70s and '80s?
This feels extraordinary.
(He chose a song different from the song he sang on Round 1.)
(It's amazing.)
(Dragon Fruit sings with his charming baritone voice again.)
(His voice is very appealing.)
(And we gradually get immersed into it.)
He's got the voice of a manly man.
Trot-rock? What is this?
(He's singing trot music like rock music.)
(House Band)
(Do you want to dance with me?)
My body wants to move. My goodness.
(They are deeply immersed in Dragon Fruit's "At Any Time".)
(His powerful rock voice is hidden behind his sweet mask.)
(It's as if he's conveying the sorrow of a lonely man.)
(He sings with his sincere heart.)
(HIs voice echoes throughout the entire studio.)
(It's amazing.)
(Dragon Fruit's "At Any Time" touched the panelists' hearts.)
(You are great.)
He's amazing.
Each verse and every bar had a different feel to it.
- But I still don't know who he is. - Exactly.
His voice is somewhat similar to Jang Hyuk's voice.
Jang Hyuk?
I meant Cho Jang Hyuk.
(My heart fluttered for a second.)
That Jang Hyuk?
Let's meet his opponent.
The striker of music,
who defeated Sim Jin Hwa, is coming up.
Good at Both Soccer and Singing,
David Beckham!
(Good at Both Soccer and Singing, David Beckham)
(Give a great performance on my behalf, honey.)
(The striker walks in.)
(We wish you good luck today too!)
I loved his voice.
- Me too. - Yes.
He will probably completely change his voice again.
He couldn't show his true ability in Round One.
Yes.
(A beautiful voice that captivates you)
(David Beckham is a straightforward vocalist.)
(His singing sounded completely stable.)
(He's ready to sing any song.)
(Is he an athlete? Or an idol singer?)
(They have different opinions.)
(A rough mimicry of a cicada)
(He has an unusual perspective.)
(Is he from a foreign country?)
(It's time to focus on his voice again.)
(He's the superstar who will capture everyone's heart.)
(To defeat Dragon Fruit...)
(and get closer to the throne,)
(David Beckham will begin his attack now.)
("Beautiful Night" by Beast)
(The rhythmical world of David Beckham)
(This is exciting.)
(He sings freely as if he's swimming in the night sky.)
(He has perfect control over the dynamics.)
(He is the rhythmical singer that makes you fall in love.)
(This is where we should sleep tonight.)
(His starry voice shines brightly.)
(It's a beautiful night where the stars shine.)
(He showed his inescapable charms by performing "Beautiful Night".)
(Mesmerized)
His voice is in the best shape now.
It's a beautiful night, yes.
The first match of Round Two, Semi-finals, is now over.
Hyun Chul, what did you think of their performances?
- David Beckham has... - Yes?
a husky voice, but he sang so rhythmically.
That's very charming.
He showed off all of his charms...
during today's performance.
As for Dragon Fruit,
I think the genre of the song he sang today is R and T.
R and T?
Yes. Rock and trot.
He sang "At Any Time" like it's a rock song.
But sometimes,
he used a technique that trot singers often use.
That's why...
I think he might be a trot singer...
who used to be a rock musician in the past.
Did you notice that too, Young Seok?
The fact that he chose to sing "At Any Time" shows that he's different.
You have to approach songs like this with a musical sense.
Normally, when singers approach songs,
they start with the melody...
and the lyrics.
They start with the small details...
to complete a song. On the other hand,
Dragon Fruit's approach is different.
He tries to understand...
the feeling of the entire song. That's where he starts from.
(Impressed)
- He looks at the forest? - That's right.
It's hard for singers to have that kind of perspective,
so I think there's a possibility that he is not a singer.
He's very mysterious.
He's such a good singer,
so I thought he'd be a musical actor...
or an actor who is also good at singing, but...
- But? - The way...
he handles the microphone...
is too smooth for an actor.
That could mean...
he's a veteran singer.
It's confusing you.
I can't even start to guess who he is...
because he has so many strengths.
But actually, David Beckham surprised me even more.
The moment I heard his voice,
I thought of dark chocolate.
Here is the reason why he could captivate...
a big audience and many panelists, including me.
It's a man's voice, but it sounds sweet...
and feels bitter at the same time.
That's why we were all captivated by him.
I believe that's what makes him a more competent and special singer.
I carefully listened to their songs.
I don't really drink alcohol,
but when Dragon Fruit was singing,
I thought of strong whisky.
His voice sounded dense, heavy,
and piquant at the same time.
As for David Beckham,
although he didn't move his body that much,
his singing sounded very rhythmical.
It made the audience very excited.
It felt like gulping down a glass of draft beer.
(That sounds awesome.)
I don't even drink. My gosh.
So Dragon Fruit is like whisky, and Beckham is like beer.
All right then.
Let's watch their specialties that will help you guess.
I will let you hear Dragon Fruit's real voice.
He will do some voice imitations.
This is a situation where a lot of celebrities...
are ordering food at a restaurant.
Firstly, it's Lee Sun Gyun's voice.
Let us hear it.
One pasta, please.
(That was good!)
Gosh, it sounded just like his voice. I was really surprised.
This time, he will imitate Cho Yong Pil's voice.
(Cho Yong Pil's voice)
One...
One pasta, please.
(What?)
(Well...)
- Well, this is... - I'm a bit confused as well.
- All right. - He can do it the way he wants.
Of course. This is how he heard Yong Pil's voice.
Lastly, it's Lee Gyeong Gyu ordering food.
Hey, bring me a pasta!
That's it.
(Well...)
That was his real voice.
(That was Lee Gyeong Gyu's voice?)
You seem even more puzzled now.
I don't think he has met Gyeong Gyu in person.
Really?
The song he chose to sing shows...
that he has a grand ambition.
He chose to sing "At Any Time".
That means he doesn't want to sing ordinary songs.
His specialties aren't so important to him.
He wouldn't try to win the match with his specialties.
He seems to be a shy person.
- Is he not used to variety shows? - He's just not used to this.
But I think he's a professional musician.
They seem to have mixed opinions.
Seong Ju seems distant with him.
I suppose he's not close with Seong Ju.
Seong Ju seems to have met him just today too.
That's not true. I know him well.
- Seong Ju. - I think they just met today.
That's what I think.
He just imitated someone's voice.
We don't have much information.
(He's hilarious.)
Now, it's Beckham's turn.
Beckham has great control over balls,
but he's also good with computers as well.
He's going to control the computer with his fingers.
He looks like a gamer.
(Is this his specialty?)
There is a keyboard and a monitor.
He'll spin them with his finger.
He's going to spin the computer with his finger.
He seems to have many creative specialties...
including the cicada mimicry from last week.
First, he'll spin the keyboard.
The keyboard is in a rectangular shape.
Here goes the spinning.
(It's impressive.)
(My goodness.)
(This is impressive.)
(He's so fluent.)
He's good.
He just spun the keyboard.
He's lifting the monitor now.
It'll be hard...
- It won't be easy to balance. - to balance the monitor.
Here it goes.
Monitor, monitor, monitor.
- Monitor, monitor, monitor. - He's spinning it.
Monitor, monitor.
- There you go. - Monitor.
(He can even join a circus team.)
(His new specialty is better than the cicada mimicry.)
That was amazing.
I can see that he's the young generation.
Those who are old would spin an encyclopedia, a phone book,
or a small table.
Not many people would try spinning an electronic device.
If you spin this at home, you'll get in big trouble.
But it seems like he's experienced with spinning them.
It's Dragon Fruit's turn now. He's going to dance.
He's going to show us his dance moves.
- Let's check it out. - Last week,
he showed us a very nimble hand movement.
He did. Do you remember that?
- It was amazing. - He was dancing with his hands.
(Last week, he danced to a very cheerful music.)
(His hands were moving incredibly fast.)
Dragon Fruit will show us a robot dance.
Music, please.
(An interesting background music plays.)
Is he a professional singer or not?
Is he an athlete?
Is he a trot singer or a rocker?
Is he an idol singer?
(He cheerfully dances to the rhythm.)
(He has become a robot.)
He's professional.
- He's moving his hands again. - He should be a pro.
- There he goes again. - He spins his hands again.
Just like last week.
(He spins his hands again.)
He's so good at spinning.
That's it.
(They give him a standing ovation.)
He's very confident about spinning his hands.
(Dragon Fruit doesn't let us down.)
He's full of charms.
These days, many singers and dancers...
later become actors.
I think...
he used to be a dancer,
but he's a full-time actor now.
His dancing skills are exceptional.
- Exactly. - He's not an amateur.
- Do you think so? - Yes.
He has amazing dancing skills.
According to Gu Ra,
he gave up on this and became an actor.
But I think it's such a waste of talent.
He can use the talent like this.
- Can he? - Of course.
What do you think of his dancing skills, Joo E?
I think he's a great dancer.
Joo E, can you do the robot dance as well?
What? The robot dance?
Let's see her robot dance.
Joo E, show us your dance. Music, please.
Goodness, look at her.
Look at her.
- She's dancing. - Look at that.
She just watched it once, and she's doing the dance now.
(Dancing)
- She can do it in a whim. - This is great.
- There you go. - Way to go.
Look at her.
(I'm a cheerful girl.)
Thank you.
(You did a great job.)
- She's a great dancer. - She's so talented.
- She's so good, isn't she? - This is why she's so popular.
Now, it's Beckham's turn.
He's going to dance to a girl group's song.
He hasn't been moving much until now,
so it was probably hard for you to guess who he is.
Now, he's going to move a bit.
Music, please.
("Magic Girl" by Orange Caramel)
(This song is known for the rhythmic and cute choreography.)
(How will the calm Beckham do the dance?)
(He holds his shorts and shyly dances.)
This is Orange Caramel's song.
(He dances gently.)
Is he an idol singer...
or is he just a singer?
Is he an actor?
Is he an athlete?
(He's just repeating the same moves.)
This dance will help you with the guessing.
(Dancing hard)
(He dances strictly to the rhythm.)
(He's a little stiff,)
(but he wraps it up with a typical move.)
That's it. Thank you.
(It's confusing.)
He might not be an excellent dancer, but there wasn't much to criticize.
He's a good dancer.
- Is he? - Yes.
Compared to Gu Ra, he's a great dancer.
- He's way better than Gu Ra. - Exactly.
When Orange Caramel was popular back then,
everyone danced to this song in variety shows.
- Really? - I did it too.
- Really? - Please give it up for him.
I can't do it.
You danced to Orange Caramel's song?
What I wanted to say...
is that it's actually not that easy to dance to it.
He knows exactly how he should dance.
He's basically a good dancer.
- Well... - Then...
- How about... - This is not what I meant.
Come on.
- He doesn't know how to dance. - All I can do is this.
- I can't do this move. - Kim Gu Ra.
- Kim Gu Ra. - I can't do this.
- Please give him the music. - Hang on a second.
You can dance with him. Watch him, and follow him.
You're just pretending to help me. I hate you.
I'm not helping you. I'm helping the crowd.
- Give him the music then. - Let's see how he dances.
- Let's see. - I can't dance.
All I can do is this.
- Please give us the music. - I can't do anything else.
Dance with Beckham.
I said this was all I could do. I can't dance.
(He's become Orange Caramel.)
I can't do it.
(He keeps saying he can't dance, but he dances hard.)
(He danced to the song 7 years ago.)
(His body remembers the moves.)
- It's just this. - My gosh!
(Turning around)
He learned how to dance.
(He even turns around to the rhythm.)
You can dance.
- I said I can't dance. - You can.
So you have danced to this song before.
- He's a dancing machine. - I was wearing a wig back then.
- You looked really cute. - My goodness.
- You were so cute just now. - He turned when he had to turn.
- When he was supposed to turn... - Because I did it before.
As a man with experience, he thinks it was...
very well-performed.
He thinks Beckham did a great job.
I hope this helps you with the guessing.
Now, I'm going to announce...
the result of the first match of Round Two.
It was a very tense match.
The result from the 12 celebrity panelists...
is 6 to 6.
The audience decided the winner of the match.
Between Dragon Fruit, who performed "At Any Time",
and Beckham, whose performance was like the Milky Way of rhythm,
which of them would the panelists want to see once again?
Let's check it out right now!
(He expressed a feeling of longing with his rich voice.)
(Dragon Fruit has a husky and charming voice.)
(He confessed his feeling of love with a rhythmic song.)
(Beckham is a magician of rhythm.)
Which one of them will be the winner...
to move on to Round Three?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - Tell us!
The winner is...
(Is it the sentimental Dragon Fruit?)
(Or is it Beckham, who has a beautiful voice?)
(Who will move on to Final Round?)
The winner is...
(The winner is David Beckham.)
Beckham is the winner.
(He wins Round Two.)
(David Beckham goes to Final Round.)
(Unfortunately, Dragon Fruit couldn't make his way through.)
All right. He'll move on to Round Three.
The result is 57 to 42.
Now, please go to the waiting room.
Please give him a round of applause.
(Dragon Fruit's identity will be unveiled soon.)
I will try to show everything I got in the next round.
Let's go.
Now, we're going to find out who Dragon Fruit is.
Who is he?
Please move to the back.
Now, Dragon Fruit, take off your mask...
and show us your face.
(His voice is rich like whisky.)
(Is he a trot singer who used to be a rocker?)
(He couldn't hold back his laughter while showing his specialty.)
(He's embarrassed to show his specialties.)
(Is he as old as Moo Song?)
(Is he new to variety shows?)
(He showed off his strong abs through his specialty.)
(Is he a man in his 50s who eats health foods?)
Take off your mask and show us your face.
(Who are you?)
(Surprised)
He is...
- What is it? - Why?
Why?
His hair is yellow.
(Who is he?)
He is...
the celebrity with a witty way of talking.
He's Kang Nam.
Gosh, he's Kang Nam.
(What?)
What?
(They're shocked.)
(Dazed)
(Sighing)
He's Kang Nam.
(Everyone's shocked by his identity.)
- Kang Nam. - Kang Nam.
- Kang Nam. - Kang Nam fooled you.
- Kang Nam. - Kang Nam.
(I fooled them all!)
(The panelists are in panic.)
They thought you wouldn't be good at doing variety shows.
I know. How should I make a living then?
- They thought you were... - What should I do?
- unfamiliar with those shows. - Unfamiliar?
- Unfamiliar? - They thought your specialties...
- were poor. - What should I do?
They had no idea. I fooled them all.
Thank you.
(Thank you for being fooled.)
- Say hello to the viewers first. - Okay.
Hello, I'm the strong guy, Kang Nam. Thank you.
(He debuted as the member of a hip hop group in 2011.)
(He showed off his refreshing vocal ability as its main vocalist.)
(Touch)
What is that?
(In "I Live Alone", he showed his friendly and off-the-wall charms.)
(With his straightforward way of talking,)
(he even intimidated Gu Ra.)
(He became recognized as the cheat code of variety shows.)
(He made guest appearances in several dramas like "Pinocchio".)
(His existence stood out in dramas too.)
(Recently, he succeeded in becoming a trot singer...)
(by performing with Tae Jin Ah, the godfather of trot music.)
(He's a man who doesn't fear challenges.)
It's actually his second appearance today.
- He came out as Mozart first. - Right.
You couldn't show off any of your talents then.
They told me to stay still.
"Don't even speak. Stay still."
You ended up failing in Round One.
Today, everyone, including Gu Ra,
had no idea about your identity.
I used to sit right next to him.
I really did. How could he not recognize me?
I mean...
(Why didn't I know?)
- It was fun. - Anyway,
- it was successful. - Thank you.
You were originally the vocalist of a rock band, right?
I was a rock vocalist.
Then I was also the member of a hip-hop group.
A hip-hop group.
Now, I'm a trot singer.
Right, he's currently a trot singer.
Right, so I was surprised.
He got you.
- He's a professional indeed. - He really is.
He knows everything.
I was going to hide it, but he got me.
- I got goose bumps. - Tell me about it.
- He might look cool in the show, - Right.
but as soon as you took off your mask,
he went, "Me, me, me, me."
- He did? - Yes.
I'm telling you this because it feels unfair.
I was right.
It was me.
(He made a fuss out of happiness.)
Hyun Chul precisely guessed the direction right.
Is there a special reason why you chose this song?
- My mom. - Your mother?
She loves this song.
She told me to sing it for certain...
when I get to challenge again.
I didn't tell her that I was coming out this time.
She must be very surprised by now.
- I know. - You're surprised, right?
- Gosh. - Mom, you're surprised, right?
I didn't let him talk much...
- because of his pronunciation. - Right.
In case people might catch it easily,
but it wasn't so obvious.
Right, I tried so hard this time.
- I went to a coin karaoke near... - A coin karaoke.
- Sookmyung Women's Univ. Station. - I see.
I spent about 200 dollars.
(He spent 200 dollars there.)
- To train your pronunciation? - I went there very early...
with Kang Buk. My dog's name is Kang Buk.
- I went there with him. - I see.
I sang for around two hours there.
He might be able to sing the song too...
because he's so used to listening to that song.
In order to pronounce the lyrics right,
you put a lot of effort.
Unlike his sides shown in variety shows,
he showed off his serious passion towards music,
his hidden voice, and his new charms today.
Please give him...
- Thank you. - another round of applause.
(We're rooting for your pleasant energy.)
I was back after two years, but I was even more nervous.
Maybe I'm a fool.
So cast me once more later. I want to advance to Round Three.
It's like taking a step higher for every appearance.
The moment I don't make it, stop casting me.
I don't have any hit songs yet,
but I'd like to become a singer who's songs...
are enjoyed by many people.
I'll always do my best. Thank you.
(See you again.)
As the result of Round Two,
David Beckham won against Kang Nam...
and advanced to Round Three.
It's the second match of Round Two.
He's the masked singer who won against Killagramz.
He's a mysterious man who dreams of a vast performance.
I Have a Rock-hard Body, Moai.
(I Have a Rock-hard Body, Moai)
(Let me show you my hidden firmness.)
(He walks forward like a real man.)
(You look reliable.)
(He enters the stage with his rock-hard build.)
He's really like a rock.
He's mysterious too.
Who will he be?
(With his comforting and stable charms,)
(his mysterious voice touched the audience's emotions.)
(His sentiments were second to...)
(those of the original singer.)
(The more they listened to his voice, the more refreshing it felt.)
(I'd like him to take the throne.)
(Is he a comedian with a heavy build?)
(He was even swift and sexy.)
(He's back on the stage again with all those mysteries.)
(While everyone is watching,)
(will he be able to build another heavy civilization?)
("Instinctively" by Yoon Jong Shin and Swings)
It's "Instinctively".
(Let's follow the guitar to the rhythm.)
(He nonchalantly throws his heavy voice.)
(They instinctively stand up.)
(Yes!)
It's nice. I like his nasal voice too.
(His sticky charm attracts the audience like crazy.)
(He even races on the rhythm with his heavy rapping.)
(Falling for me?)
(That's your instinct.)
(They can't help but fall in love with his manly charm.)
Good!
(To this perfect, groovy live accompaniment,)
(they're instinctively immersed in bouncing.)
Nice.
(Who on earth is he?)
(The more they listen to his voice, the more attractive it gets.)
(Just as how it feels,)
(they begin to play their imaginary instruments.)
(It's just the feeling)
(That's the instinct)
(Their instinct leads to the band sound.)
Everybody, now.
(His feisty performance stimulates the audience's instincts.)
(They're drawn to his performance like magnets.)
He's good.
(They approve of him.)
- Good job. - Good work.
I enjoyed today's performance.
Against him...
is the masked singer who won against Hye Jeong of AOA.
She's in her element today.
One Day in Life,
Coral Girl.
(One Day in Life, Coral Girl)
(Here goes Coral Girl.)
(Cute)
(It's nice to see you.)
She's a strong candidate.
(She's a strong candidate.)
I can't wait.
(Showing off her powerful voice volume,)
(she let everyone in the studio know about her experienced skills.)
(The panelists admitted that she'd be a threat to the king.)
(Is she the soulful singer, BMK?)
(Or is she the musical actress, Jeong Young Ju?)
(She showed an unexpected specialty.)
(Her presence poses a threat to the masked king.)
(Everyone's expectations are on her shoulders.)
(Will she be able to beat a strong opponent...)
(and challenge the masked king?)
(Coral Girl's deep performance begins now.)
("Speed" by Kim Gun Mo)
It's blues.
("Speed" by Kim Gun Mo)
(The groove is strong from the start.)
(My goodness.)
(Singing)
(My goodness.)
(She is so cool.)
(Coral Girl sings jazz in a dreamy way.)
(Impressed)
(The way she controls her breath in an expert way...)
(makes everyone fall in love with her.)
(Let's dance.)
(She transforms the rhythm of "Part Time Lover...)
(into a soulful and jazzy scat.)
(Her voice grows stronger as the rhythm becomes faster.)
(Scat singing)
(Her wonderful ad-lib enriches the rhythm.)
(Her awe-inspiring groove continues to hit the audience.)
(They can only listen to the performance in awe.)
(Dancing)
(Coral Girl's performance is perfect.)
(To the bluesy rhythm,)
(they wriggle their bodies.)
(Coral Girl's performance of "Speed" made everyone move to the rhythm.)
(You are the best.)
(That was unbelievable.)
(Cheering)
That was incredible.
(That was incredible.)
That was incredible.
The second match of Round Two came to an end.
Young Seok.
I am impressed.
Moai's voice...
reminded me of well-cooked rice.
Such rice tastes so good that you don't need anything...
other than dried laver.
His performance was like well-cooked rice with dried laver.
His voice sounded as if it would be easy to digest.
That's right. It sounded as if it would be tasty.
As for Coral Girl,
she is a singer among singers.
Here is what makes her so impressive.
When you go to a fitness center, there is a belt massager.
When it vibrates on your body,
you can hardly talk.
Her voice is so stable...
that she would be able to sing comfortably...
even if she has two belt massagers on her.
Choosing the right song isn't very important to her either.
- She can sing any song well. - No matter what the genre is,
she will give a stellar performance.
I have a feeling that she will win.
All right. Jang Hyuk.
I think Moai chose the right song.
Moai showed us...
the musical talent he was born with.
When he sings a song in an instinctive way,
the listeners' moods improve, and their bodies become lighter.
That's the ability he has.
He is someone who can spread happiness.
On the other hand, Coral Girl's performance...
exhausts the listeners.
She made...
the panelists stand up automatically...
and dance like mollusks.
The panelists exhausted themselves...
by dancing like octopuses throughout the performance.
That's right.
It was a stellar performance.
Gu Ra.
She showed us one of the best performances in Round Two.
- One of the best performances? - I think...
she should have shown this performance in Round Three.
I don't know why she revealed it so early on.
I couldn't help but think about that.
Coral Girl.
Among compliance methods,
there is something called the door-in-the-face technique.
- The door-in-the-face technique. - Yes.
Let's say you are asking your mom for money.
If you ask her for 200 dollars, she will be surprised.
- Yes. - Then you can say,
"Can you give me 50 dollars then?"
Then she will say, "Take this, and get lost."
If you do something big first,
you can do something small...
- for the same effect. - Something small.
- It's the psychology of persuasion. - Here is what I think.
Since she gave a strong performance in Round Two,
she will give us...
a relaxed performance in Round Three.
What would the masked king think upon watching her performance?
He would panic.
It's her strategy...
to give everything she has from the start...
to scare the masked king.
I think she has sung jazz music for many hears.
Is she a jazz specialist?
- Her scat... - Scat?
(Scat singing)
Singing like this. Her scat was very precise.
Her class...
tells me that she specialized in jazz.
You think she is a jazz specialist.
Gu Ra, do you have anything to say about Moai?
All of us know who he is.
(That's so sudden.)
Mr. K.
(Who?)
Who? Me?
You...
- Mr. K. - I could be Mr. K as well.
You must have had a big dinner.
Your belly is protruding a lot.
What exactly did you eat?
You must have had a big dinner.
I think he ate a lot...
to gain enough energy for three rounds.
He gained weight in one round.
- I know. - He gained weight.
- He ate a lot. - He ate a lot.
Seriously.
He whispered in my ear...
and said that he hasn't eaten dinner yet.
No way.
Everyone is built differently.
Don't make assumptions just because he has a big belly!
- What's certain is... - He hasn't eaten dinner!
- His belly is protruding. - He hasn't eaten dinner.
- An empty stomach? - During our conversation,
Coral Girl touched her belly.
(When they were talking about Moai not having dinner...)
(Patting)
(I couldn't help it.)
You haven't had dinner, have you?
She hasn't had dinner.
Coral Girl hasn't had dinner either.
Neither one of them had dinner yet.
Let's move on to their specialties.
Coral Girl will beatbox...
and show off her swag.
Are you ready?
Drop the beat!
(Beatboxing)
(She makes a farting sound.)
It must be because you haven't had dinner.
She hasn't had dinner.
The sound was a bit off.
That sound could be mistaken for something else.
That was beatboxing, right?
Please don't misunderstand.
Let's go again. Drop the beat!
(Farting sound)
(The intro ends.)
(Singing)
(She sings and beatboxes at the same time.)
She is making two sounds.
(She makes 2 sounds with 1 mouth.)
My goodness.
(The teacher is waiting)
She is beatboxing and singing.
(For us)
(That was fascinating.)
- She sang with her nose. - But it's still difficult to do.
I think she did that.
It's still difficult to do.
(My goodness.)
I underestimated her.
She has incredible talent.
This time, it's Moai's turn. He can split an apple...
with a sword without touching it.
That's what he prepared.
A real sword can be dangerous,
so we prepared a wooden sword instead.
Where do you want to place this apple?
This apple.
(I'll put it on your head.)
That's a good idea.
(Gosh, hang on.)
(You can do this.)
Wait. If you swing it a little lower,
it can't be undone.
Are you sure it will be okay? Are you confident?
Gosh, it's such a risk. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
All right then.
My goodness.
(He's shivering by looking at the wooden sword.)
An apple...
(Putting it on his head)
Wait.
I shouldn't move.
The apple is so small.
Well... You know what?
Okay. I won't move.
Moai, can you place a towel beneath that?
My hair will be messed up?
(I can't because your hair will be messed up.)
I'd rather mess my hair up...
instead of getting hit by a wooden sword.
(Stop making a fuss.)
I can't believe this.
It's so...
(Trembling)
I can't watch it.
(Brandishing the sword)
(Shutting their eyes tight)
Wait. Is he slicing it vertically or horizontally?
- Vertically. - Vertically.
Vertically?
Is he cutting it vertically?
Moai, is it vertically?
I won't do it. I can't let you do that.
I won't let you cut it vertically.
You can't do that.
(Funny)
Really? I see.
You should practice it first.
Sure. You need practice.
You're the host. You have to do this.
I don't have to risk my life on this.
Do you have a watermelon?
He should practice it with a watermelon.
Let's say the watermelon is my head.
He'll split only the apple.
If you break the watermelon, I won't do this.
I'm serious.
I can't believe this.
You have to split only the apple.
Moai will split an apple...
with a wooden sword.
Without touching the apple.
Using a wooden sword.
(He finally starts his specialty.)
(He's ready now.)
(I'll finish it with a single stroke.)
You have to keep the watermelon intact.
Vertically.
(The fatal hour has come.)
(Watermelon, why were you born as a watermelon?)
(Don't be afraid.)
(I'll finish it with a single stroke.)
(The apple is hit.)
(Surprised)
(With a single stroke...)
(What?)
(Why? What happened?)
(Seong Ju's head... I mean the watermelon is...)
(Hey!)
(Calm down.)
(The watermelon cracked.)
If it were Seong Ju, he would've needed at least five stitches.
I can't do this.
I would've gotten hurt from here to here.
My goodness.
(It would've been a disaster.)
Wait. I should check the apple first.
The apple is split in two.
It's split in half.
- It's hard, isn't it? - It's very difficult.
Let's wrap things up here.
- Okay? - Let's do that.
This is it.
Please give him a big hand.
(It was fun.)
Can you split the watermelon in half?
The watermelon.
Okay.
He says he will take it to the waiting room.
He wants to eat it?
He says it's his watermelon.
Is he hungry?
- He's hungry now. - I see.
He will eat it if he loses in Round Two.
- I understand. - He wants to keep it...
- I'm sorry. - in his waiting room.
All right then. Let's find out the result...
of the second match of Round Two.
Between Moai, who has a firm and determined voice,
and Coral Girl, who has a free high-class groove,
who will win this match and move on to Round Three?
(With a deep voice that stirs up people's instincts,)
(Moai stole people's hearts roughly but delicately.)
(And his opponent, Coral Girl.)
(With her grooves that fill in the beat,)
(Coral Girl's voice shook the entire stage.)
We have a male vocalist and a female vocalist here.
Who will move on to Round Three?
Who is the winner of this match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Two people with different charms had a fierce match.)
(Which one captivated the panelists' hearts?)
Between Moai and Coral Girl,
who will be singing against Beckham?
The winner is...
(One Day in Life, Coral Girl wins.)
Coral Girl wins.
(Coral Girl plunges into Round Three with a splash.)
(The winner, Coral Girl, gets a loud cheer.)
I'm sorry for Moai.
Moai did a good job too.
The score is 66 to 33.
With a double score,
Coral Girl defeated Moai...
and moved on to the next round.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Please give her a round of applause.
Coral Girl moved on to Round Three.
I'll try my best to the end.
Please look forward to it. Thank you.
Then who is Moai?
We will reveal Moai's identity...
with a solo performance...
he prepared for Round Three.
(This is amazing.)
Please give him a big hand.
(He has a plain voice like well-cooked rice.)
(Moai showed his musical talent with his performance.)
(Is he Mr. K that everyone knows?)
(Cracked)
(He almost cracked Seong Ju's head instead of a watermelon.)
(Who is Moai?)
(What song is this?)
(Bong Suk)
I knew it. He should've sung this song earlier.
("Bong Suk E" by Rose Motel)
(Moai's sexy voice seduces everyone.)
(His song make people get into the rhythm.)
(This is nice.)
(I can't let you go)
(I'll stay and dance.)
(His fascinating voice makes you stay.)
(Palpitating)
(Who on earth is he?)
Now,
Moai, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
He is...
(Who is everyone cheering for?)
Who is he?
He is...
the outstanding glutton...
and an all-around entertainer, Kim Joon Hyun.
(Kim Joon Hyun?)
(Shocked)
(It's so nice to see you!)
He's Kim Joon Hyun.
(Bong Suk)
(Letting out a sigh)
(Come on.)
(Comedian Kim Joon Hyun's singing skills surprise everyone.)
(Singing)
(Laughing)
(Shall we dance?)
(A wild dance)
(Hey!)
(They all join him.)
(His presence fills the stage.)
(Jealous)
(His perfect pacing makes everyone want to hear more of his voice.)
(1, 2, 3, 4, and back again.)
(Kim Joon Hyun's Bong Suk E enchanted everyone.)
(He dominated the stage.)
(You're the best.)
I recognized him when he turned back.
It was amazing.
Please say hi to the viewers.
He's going to wipe his sweat first.
I feel better now.
(Coughing)
Hello, I am Kim Joon Hyun.
(He debuted in 2007 as a KBS comedian.)
(He came up with a lot of catch phrases.)
(He’s a veteran comedian who stops at nothing for laughter.)
(The way he eats is jaw-dropping and shocking.)
(He became a variety show star as Mr. Eat.)
- Kim Joon Hyun. - It’s Kim Joon Hyun.
(He swept over many awards and proved his popularity.)
(He even debuted as a rock band guitarist.)
(Recently, he tried acting too.)
(He is a talented man who can act any roles he’s given.)
(Kim Joon Hyun is a multi-talented entertainer.)
- You made it to Round Three. - Yes. Thank you.
But I was so nervous...
- that I didn't know how to stand. - My goodness.
I now know what it means for your legs to give in.
Were you nervous?
- I was unbelievably nervous. - Were you?
I couldn't even eat dinner.
- You have an empty stomach. - It could affect my performance.
- Right. - Really?
I have an empty stomach.
- And Gu Ra... - Right.
- He criticized my belly. - I know.
- He criticized your belly. - Anyway,
you have an empty stomach now,
but wouldn't you eat the same amount after the shoot anyway?
- Right. I would. - Right?
I would gulp down a cold drink.
But even so, you were misunderstood for having a full stomach...
- when it was actually empty. - I think...
it's all because of his passion and love for music.
His attitude towards music is different.
You are good at making it sound good.
By the way, people...
guessed your identity quite fast.
I was really worried.
- Mun Se Yun was here before. - He was here.
Kim Tae Won and Song Pil Geun were here too.
Now, the only remaining big comedians who could come here...
are Yoo Min Sang and myself.
- Yoo Min Sang or you. - Yes.
He's the only one who is as big as you.
He is really big though. Really big.
- You know that, right? - He's big.
He is really big.
I am just big enough.
So I thought about hiding my body shape.
But before that, I wanted to not make any mistakes.
- I wanted to do well. - Right.
I was going to perform alone in front of so many people.
And the best band was going to play for me.
I didn't want to have any regrets when I was done.
That's why I was really nervous.
You wanted to show everything you wanted to show.
- Yes. - During the talent show,
you hit the apple.
- He used a wooden sword. - Have you actually...
succeeded to cut the apple...
on top of someone's head? Have you done it before?
(Well...)
(You have succeeded it, right?)
(You must have. Right?)
I have never tried it before. I thought I'd give it a try today.
(Come on!)
But he couldn't handle it.
You should've trusted me.
I was terrified when I saw the watermelon cracking.
- The watermelon was... - I saw the red meat.
A person's head is much harder than a watermelon.
It's about 600 times harder.
It just swells a little bit and knocks some sense into you.
My gosh. I've been watching him...
since the rehearsal.
You sweated a lot until Round Two.
- Yes. - But thankfully,
your shirt is quite dry.
I prepared five pairs. The exact same ones.
There are five shirts.
- Are they all the same? - Of course.
- Is that right? - I had to keep changing.
I wondered how your shirt remained dry all the time.
It's always dry.
Right.
I am 40 next year.
One of the things on my bucket list...
is to write my own song, write lyrics for the song,
sing the song, and play the song all by myself.
It's my lifelong desire to form a one-man band.
- A one-man band. - Yes. A one-man band.
To get started on achieving that dream,
I decided to...
have my first performance on "King of Mask Singer".
I think it was very successful.
Many professionals have praised you.
He came on my radio show...
and introduced a few pop songs.
He talks so well. He is witty.
He influences a lot of people.
He must've introduced the song hundreds of times.
But his voice still shivered as he was introducing the song.
Seeing that made me realize that he loves music so much.
Thank you.
I was humming the song in the waiting room.
And I felt so happy to be doing music.
Thank you so much for letting me be here.
Thank you for watching me from up close.
I hope you will continue to cheer for me.
- Thank you. - Today,
we saw the new side of him.
Looking more serious than ever,
he showed his deep love for music.
Please give a round of applause for Joon Hyun once more.
(We will cheer for Joon Hyun's passion.)
(Please make sure you show us your one-man band.)
I feel like I had a dream.
I don't even know how I sang.
It just went by so fast.
It feels like I woke up from a good dream.
I thought about whether I should do music so seriously...
as a comedian. I thought to myself.
But they told me so many good things,
and it made me break the prejudices...
I imposed on myself.
I got a little emotional.
I wasn't sure if it was sweat or tears.
My second child will be born around time this goes out.
Perhaps she might think her dad is a singer.
(Laughing)
I Have a Rock-hard Body, Moai...
was me, Kim Joon Hyun.
Thank you. Be happy.
(He's got something important to take.)
I will go home now.
I will take these and eat them cool.
(Thank you! I will go home now.)
Bye.
One Day in Life,
Coral Girl beat Joon Hyun...
and made it to Round Three.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Now, one last round remains...
until we find out the 80th King of Mask Singer.
Let's bring in the two masked singers again.
Please welcome them with a big round of applause.
Coral Girl and David Beckham...
will fight against Bob Ross...
on Round Three. How do you feel?
(How do they feel about making it to Round Three?)
Well...
It's Final Round now.
Yes. It feels good to make it this far.
- That's it. - Right.
You will be singing the last song you have prepared.
The masked king is looking down from above.
You will be given a chance to say something provocative to him.
Okay. David Beckham should start first.
I heard the first defense match...
is the toughest.
I think it will be tough today because of me.
(He's dizzy.)
(He's fierce, isn't he?)
Coral Girl, please say something.
I will go up there.
(Laughing)
You said it out of the blue. "Come down."
- Yes. - All right.
Bob Ross is the 79th King of Mask Singer.
You've been watching their performances, right?
(Where is my mouth?)
You have to find your mouth.
That's it.
Yes. I watched them very well.
What do you want to say about them?
First, I watched...
Coral Girl's performance.
- She's quite good. - She's quite good?
- Is she quite good? - Yes.
(His outdated expression is very unlike him.)
David Beckham...
is quite good as well.
- He's quite good as well? - Yes.
(Bob Ross, who is quite good too, keeps them in check.)
By the way...
(Sighing)
This is the first defense match.
You talk like an old man.
- It's like this. - You are the masked king.
Other people have won 8 or 9 consecutive times.
- But it's my first time up here. - I see.
- So what? - So I feel...
very hopeless.
(I feel very hopeless.)
The first defense is hard.
If you win today, it'll be easier next time.
No, wait. But my performance will be amazing as well.
- It'll be amazing, right? - Yes.
I will surprise you all.
Okay.
Good. Which singer will be the winner of Round Three?
This is Round Three, Final Round.
Let's start with David Beckham's stage!
(Excited)
(This is the last match before Final Match.)
(Will he be able to score a goal and take the throne...)
(with the voice that he has defeated strong opponents with?)
("I Remember" by Boohwal)
What song is this? Boohwal's song?
He's singing a ballad this time. He sang "Beautiful Night" before.
(He chose a ballad for this round.)
You've got to sing a ballad at the end. Right?
(He makes a bid for victory with an emotional rock ballad.)
(It's Boohwal's song.)
("I Remember" by Boohwal, a man's song)
(His husky voice slowly spreads.)
(He's standing still, but his singing sounds emotional.)
(He's intimidating.)
(The sorrowful melody fills the stage.)
(The fragrance of a sad ballad spreads out.)
I love it. I really do.
It's such a sad song.
The way I see it, singing ballad songs...
are David Beckham's true specialty.
(I agree.)
(His sad emotions build up.)
(He expresses the sad longing with his husky voice.)
(It's breaking my heart.)
(This feels like a dream.)
(As if he had a breakup right before the match,)
(his high notes convey strong emotions of longing.)
(I can see you in my dreams)
(His cry makes your heart ache.)
(By singing "I Remember", he gave an unforgettable performance.)
(It was such an emotional performance.)
That was great.
(It has made everyone's heart ache.)
How sad.
Let's meet his opponent.
The singer who defeated...
Hye Jeong of AOA and Kim Joon Hyun.
She will take root in the throne.
One Day in Life,
Coral Girl!
(Shall I go wet the entire stage?)
(Please give a touching performance.)
I'm expecting a great performance.
A great performance.
She said this stage will be different.
I can't wait.
(It is Coral Girl's third performance.)
(Everyone is focused.)
(Can she beat her strong opponent...)
(and have a match with the king?)
(Coral Girl's magical stage begins now.)
("A Request" by Lee Seung Hwan)
What is this?
(The song starts with an oriental melody.)
I feel like someone just hit me.
(Her sad humming...)
(strikes everyone's heart.)
My goodness.
(Just like the waves surging in,)
(the sadness slowly builds up.)
Gosh, it's breaking my heart.
(She sorrowfully sings...)
(about her deep resentment.)
(Her piercing pain is conveyed through her song.)
(Please)
(Her singing sounds so desperate like a painful cry.)
(The song is over.)
(Wiping his tears)
(But the sadness lingers.)
(Coral Girl gave a breathtakingly emotional performance.)
Gosh, I got goose bumps.
(It was the best!)
It was such a high-quality performance.
(He was so touched that he couldn't help crying.)
Final Round is now over.
What do you think about their performances?
(Where is my mouth?)
First of all, thank you so much for the great performances.
Beckham performed "I Remember" first.
It's also one of the songs I always sing when I go to a karaoke.
It was very impressive.
It was great.
And Coral Girl performed "A Request".
I'd like to practice singing that song too.
I didn't know it was such a great song.
(Thanks to Coral Girl, he found a nice song.)
Do you think their performances changed your mindset?
The two of them really touched my heart.
I think I can focus on my performance better.
I see.
I'll try to pay them back with a good performance.
Very good. Now,
you're going to go get ready for your first title defense.
Please give him a round of applause.
Please go backstage now.
He'll go backstage and get ready for the match.
Kai, you look serious now.
I was very moved by both their performances.
Coral Girl performed "A Request".
It's originally played with a Chinese instrument, erhu.
It's known as a musical instrument that sounds...
the most similar to the sound of a weeping woman,
which is why its sound gives you chills.
Today, I heard the weeping sound from Coral Girl's voice.
Instead of the erhu sound,
I felt like her voice made the song emotional.
- It was beautiful. - I see.
On the other hand, in Beckham's performance...
his voice clicks in with the music like a lock...
at certain notes.
I think this song was perfect...
for singing with such notes.
There's something mysterious about his voice.
I think both of their performances...
were enough to warm my heart today.
I see. Gu Ra?
(Gu Ra's comments on Round Three)
- This isn't easy. - It isn't.
- Right. - It isn't easy.
Beckham did a wonderful job.
I heard Kim Tae Won is a perfectionist.
I heard he records one song hundreds of times,
which is how he composes good songs.
It's supposed to be a hard song. I was really surprised.
- I see. - Right.
And Coral Girl's performance...
had bamboo images on the LED screen in the background.
She was dancing while singing.
Personally, I was reminded of the famous scene...
from "Tiger and Dragon".
There's a scene where they fight in a bamboo forest...
with a sad music in the background.
She's amazing.
Moo Song, how did you like their performances?
They seem to show us more of their true abilities...
after each round.
Both of them are good enough...
to deserve the throne even though...
- one thing could've been better. - What is it?
Actually, there's a reason...
why Seung Hwan performed the song without using vibrato.
Vibrato doesn't go with this song.
East Asian traditional music...
is very emotional and touches your heart.
But her singing skills fit better with gospel songs.
The songs where you can feel the soul of black people.
- She has it deep inside her. - I see.
She tried to overcome it, but it wasn't perfect.
I personally think it would've been better to go without using vibrato.
Except for such minor problems,
- her performance was perfect. - I see.
Lastly,
I'd like to hear from someone who has been in Round Three.
I'd like to hear what Min Seo thinks.
In Round One and Round Two,
I thought Beckham as the type who sings softly,
but his performance in Round Three shocked me.
He is a very good singer.
I was surprised to see him stably hitting the high notes in the end.
His performance gave me a strong impression.
And for Coral Girl...
I felt like watching an art performance.
Everything felt like a work of art.
I was very touched.
Thank you both for your great performances.
I see. Now, I will...
announce...
the result of Final Round.
Who will be...
Bob Ross' match for his first title defense?
Between Beckham, who releases a powerful shot,
and Coral Girl, who moistens the stage,
who will be the last one to move on...
to the 80th Final Match? Let's check it out right now!
Let's find out who the winner is.
(He has a sad yet powerful voice.)
(Beckham is highly expressive.)
(Her resonant voice overwhelms the audience.)
(Coral Girl's performance deeply touches our hearts.)
Between Coral Girl and Beckham,
which of them would the panelists want to see again?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Who will be the masked king's match?)
Between Beckham and Coral Girl,
who will be the winner? The winner is...
The winner is...
(The winner is Coral Girl.)
Coral Girl is the winner.
(It's Coral Girl's day today.)
(Coral Girl's performance is always great.)
(Beckham, you did a good job as well.)
Congratulations.
The score is what's important here.
The result is 62 to 37.
It was a close match.
Coral Girl, you may now go backstage...
and watch the masked king's performance.
Please give her a round of applause.
Coral Girl turns out to be Bob Ross' match.
Bob Ross.
I will take your throne soon.
You'll see.
Who is he?
We'll check it out soon.
Please come to the back of the stage.
(Excited)
Now, Beckham, please take off your mask...
and show us your face.
(His charm number 1. His rhythmic and husky voice)
(His charm number 2. He stably hits his high notes.)
(His voice is perfect for certain notes.)
(He's more than just a charming person. He's a great singer.)
Please take off your mask...
and show us your face.
(Who is he?)
(Surprised)
(My goodness!)
What is it?
He has such a small face.
- Who is he? - Why?
Show me his face.
He is...
a member of the boy group, NU'EST W.
He's a sexy lead singer of the group,
Baekho.
(This is unbelievable!)
(They can't keep their mouths closed.)
What? He's that young?
(This is unbelievable.)
Could you please introduce yourself to the viewers?
Hello, I'm Baekho of NU'EST W.
Hello.
(His masculine and sexy looking steal women's hearts.)
(He topped the music charts as a member of NU'EST W.)
(NU'EST W's album tops music charts 4 years after release.)
NU'EST W. Congratulations.
- NU'EST W. - NU'EST W.
(They swept all music charts and awards.)
We'll do our best to give great performances.
(He's an all-round artist who can even write and compose songs.)
(He's one charismatic man on a stage.)
(He can be cute too.)
(His cuteness will relieve all your stress.)
(He has different charms.)
(Baekho is a charismatic and charming man.)
He got a lot of attention through "Produce 101".
Baekho is the lead singer of NU'EST W.
You used to do sports when you were young, right?
Yes, when I was in school, I used to do kendo.
And one day, I was randomly casted.
- On the streets? - Yes, I got casted on the streets.
Where?
- In Jeju Island. - Jeju Island?
You got casted on the streets in Jeju Island?
- Yes. - While hanging out with a friend?
Someone suddenly asked you if you'd like to be a singer?
That cicada must be a cicada from Jeju Island.
You're right.
(Nobody has ever heard of such a cicada before.)
That cicada is not from Korea.
(They couldn't figure out where he was from...)
(and some said he was from abroad.)
I was right. He's from oversea.
He has indeed crossed the sea. He is from Jeju Island.
You recently released a new album.
Did you really write all the songs in the album yourself?
- I did. - All of them?
I think Hyun Chul...
would like to say a few words as a senior singer-songwriter.
You're going to write numerous songs from now on.
You can make any type of music...
into your own and perform it.
That's the biggest asset you can have.
So please keep it up.
I'd like to see you later in person...
and write a song together.
- Great. - Thank you.
This must have given you more confidence.
You got many good comments from the panelists...
who are your seniors and colleagues.
I think this would encourage him to keep it up.
Today, through King of Mask Singer,
Baekho showed us his passion for music...
and his voice.
Please give him a round of applause.
(We're rooting for your activities.)
I barely had any specialties.
But I was able to pick up my courage with the mask on.
Do you want to try the cicada thing again?
Right now? But I'm not wearing my mask on.
(Cicada)
(The cicada in Jeju Island is ashamed.)
This was one of the shows which I wanted to appear in.
I got so many compliments which can't be compared with the rankings.
I'm so happy even though I failed in this round.
It'll be my motivation to work hard.
Good at Both Soccer and Singing, David Beckham...
was NU'EST W. Wait, no.
I'm Baekho of NU'EST W. Thank you.
As the result of Round Three,
One Day in Life, Coral Girl...
won against Baekho of NU'EST and advanced to the final round.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
We only have our masked king's defensive performance left now.
It's his first performance to protect this throne.
What kind of stage did he prepare to win two times in a row?
It's time for the battle to decide on the 80th masked king.
Let's meet the king's performance.
It's the final round for the 80th masked king.
He's the super vocalist with the sentimental power.
He's the 79th masked king.
Singing Is Easy, Bob Ross.
(This gate is allowed only to the masked king.)
(He enters the stage with confidence.)
(It's good to see you.)
(His aura raises the audience's excitement.)
He's cool. Look at his outfit.
His hairstyle has gotten curlier.
(The anxiety in the studio grows bigger like his curlier hairstyle.)
(Everyone holds their breath to watch his performance.)
(Will he manage to stop the soulful vocalist, Coral Girl,)
(and takes his 2nd consecutive win?)
(The moon is up.)
(And the piano melody flows above it.)
(Everyone opens their ears.)
(What's his song?)
("Breathe" by Lee Hi)
(He sings each word in a calm mood.)
(He serenely offers comfort to the audience.)
(Saying "It's okay"...)
(is a huge comfort and strength.)
(His husky middle-tone voice appeases them as if he's patting.)
He's the masked king indeed.
(You can make mistakes sometimes)
(Because everyone has done it)
(It's okay)
(I'll hug you)
(It's dedicated for those who've spent a suffocating day.)
(He cries out desperately to comfort those exhausted people.)
(Their sigh scatters.)
(Their hearts ache more deeply.)
(You did)
(A really good job)
(You did a really good job)
(it's something he wanted to deliver for certain.)
(His performance gives comfort to those who have hung in today.)
(Moved)
(The heart-aching emotion lingers in the audience's hearts.)
He's the masked king indeed.
(His class is beyond their expectations.)
It's beyond my expectation.
- He's really good. - I know, right?
The masked king's performance ended.
He's done his first defensive performance today.
What are your opinions?
Young Seok, I can see you're smiling slightly.
His charm...
is that he's sincere in every moment,
but at the same time, his singing isn't cowardly in any weak part.
He sang out without losing his confidence.
And I could sense his sincerity from it.
When he sang, "I'll hug you," at the last part,
I bet a lot of women must've wanted to be hugged by his song.
It didn't end there though.
His song was confident, but there was a part where we wanted to hug.
He didn't miss out to include the humane side in there.
It was such a wonderful performance.
What about Coral Girl?
I have heard many good songs until now,
but I never met anyone with such a singing style.
From her song, I could realize...
the importance of one's in-depth experience in music.
One more thing.
I realized that songs which can move one's heart...
without much stimulation to the ears can be so beautiful.
That's how I felt.
I think it's so hard to predict the result.
Their performances touched my heart...
in totally different ways.
When I watched Coral Girl's "A Request",
it felt like her sad life's story was portrayed in it.
I was sad...
as if my heart was being ripped apart.
But Bob Ross counterattacked with another sad song.
- Right. - All this sadness...
was so overwhelming that I experienced sudden catharsis.
Their performances were so sorrowful that I loved them so much.
That's why it was so difficult for me to keep listening.
It was hard because I had to choose between the two,
but it was emotionally hard too.
When Coral Girl was singing the oriental song earlier,
I really wanted to dance behind her...
in white hanbok...
to the extent that I didn't disturb her performance.
Likewise, when he sang his song,
I really wanted to do a modern dance in black...
like a mad man.
But I thought I might shed tears...
if I were to dance to their performances.
When they were singing,
I felt joy and ecstasy,
which turned into catharsis.
I was smiling,
but tears were coming out of my eyes.
When Coral Girl first sang,
I was in so much pain.
Then Bob Ross hit me again.
Right now, I don't have the energy to get up. That's how tough it is.
But that toughness doesn't bother me.
I feel relieved for some reason.
It made me feel this strange emotion.
Personally, I want to thank both of them.
Jae Jung.
It's really tough today.
- It's tough. - Listening to all those songs...
- made me think a lot. - Right.
I could feel how much hard work and passion...
they put into this.
I was pleasantly shocked by their singing abilities...
and thought that I still have a long way to go to reach them.
I learned a lot from them.
The king's last performance showed not only his hard work and passion,
but also his ability to communicate with the audience.
That made me realize that he is the masked king for a reason.
So I enjoyed both the masked king and Coral Girl's performances.
- Thank you. - All right.
- Jang Hyuk. - They say...
all the arts are one in the end.
It was as if Coral Girl...
is on the verge of unifying...
all arts. That's how I felt.
Her performance encompassed many genres.
It feels like she would understand the fine arts...
and even literature.
I felt like she would know everything.
And that really touched me.
But Bob is really amazing.
During the performance, he absorbs the energy from the audience...
and makes it his own.
He's got the energy...
to transmit his emotions to the audience.
That's what I thought.
Especially, in the last part when he was crying,
I thought he might be mad.
I felt so fuzzy,
and I felt like he took away my energy.
That's what I thought.
It was the best performance.
(Jang Hyuk praises the two singers.)
Gu Ra, did you do the exit poll?
- I did. - Yes?
I will summarize the trend of the exit poll.
(Turning his head)
(The voters were perplexed.)
(The vote was getting more exciting.)
or turn out to have a concrete result.
This is the prediction result of the exit poll.
(Exit poll for the selection of the 80th King of Mask Singer)
I asked them right away. I was really curious.
There was a large number of people who haven't made up their minds.
- That's how... - They couldn't...
- Yes. - decide who to pick.
Bob Ross's performance...
started off with a relaxed atmosphere.
But in the end, he fell into a trance.
Right. Right.
If I were to speak in artist terms, it's like he...
got high on the smell of oil paint while working on an oil painting...
and fainted.
So he just...
swung the brush around the canvas and ended up with a masterpiece.
(In the end, he made a great art.)
That's how I felt.
Because of that cry in the last part,
he gained some more votes.
That was the winning move.
Should I tell you the result?
Do you have the estimated result?
It's 5 to 7 here.
- 5 to 7. 7 to 5. - 7 to 5.
It's a close match, but someone got two more votes.
All right. The result for the 80th Final Match has arrived.
Gu Ra's prediction on...
the result of celebrity panelists' exit poll was...
- Did you say 7 to 5? - 5 to 7 or 7 to 5.
- You were very precise. - I knew it.
Gu Ra's prediction is always very precise.
- 7 to 5. - They wouldn't lie to my face.
I saw them pressing the button too.
- My gosh. - Isn't that true?
I will tell you this for your reference.
We have a big data.
The new masked kings who have taken the throne...
by taking down a long-term winner...
haven't done too well.
Yes.
That's just the data.
I am not saying that's you.
I'm trying to say that our expectations...
to a new King of Mask Singer who won a long-term winner...
is very high.
For that reason,
the masked king who we have been watching with high hopes...
must feel very pressured.
Let's see which masked singer...
your unbiased heart is directed at.
Who will seize the throne?
We will reveal the 80th King of Mask Singer...
right now.
Who became the winner?
(With her soulful voice,)
(she revealed her strong presence.)
(She chose an unusual song and reinterpreted it superbly.)
(And her rough charms...)
(pleasantly shocked everyone.)
(With her powerful voice, she expressed sorrow emotions.)
(She showcased different charms on every round.)
(One Day in Life, Coral Girl is a singer with many charms.)
(He consoled us with his sincerest voice.)
(His cry touched our hearts.)
(His deep cry contained sorrow.)
(Singing Is Easy, Bob Ross has a ragingly powerful voice.)
Between Coral Girl...
and Bob Ross, who is aiming to win for the second time,
who is the winner of the 80th Final Match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
I can't watch this.
My goodness.
I really can't watch this.
I am curious, but I can't see it.
(Should I see it or not?)
(Is it Coral Girl, who is dreaming of becoming the new masked queen?)
(Is it Bob Ross, who is going for the second win?)
(What is the result?)
The 80th King of Mask Singer.
The winner is...
It's a shocking result.
The 80th King of Mask Singer.
The winner is...
(Singing Is Easy, Bob Ross wins.)
Singing Is Easy, Bob Ross won.
(Bob Ross protected the throne.)
(It's a shame that Coral Girl lost.)
Bob Ross won.
Bob Ross is the 80th King of Mask Singer.
(It was 27 to 72.)
The result was 27 to 72.
(There was a big gap between the two.)
An overwhelming number...
(He gained full support from the regular panelists.)
of regular panelists...
supported Bob Ross.
Bob Ross became the masked king once again.
Congratulations on winning for the second time.
He will be given the king's robe...
and the golden mask again.
You must've been nervous.
How do you feel now that you succeeded to protect the throne?
(I have to find my mouth first.)
That's your mouth. Yes.
(Like this?)
First of all, thank you so much for listening to my song.
And thank you so much for your precious votes.
I will prepare well for the next performance...
so that you won't be disappointed.
Thank you.
Bob Ross is amazing.
Now, Singing Is Easy, Bob Ross will exit the stage...
after a march for security purposes.
Please give him a big hand once more.
Bob Ross.
Now, please march around the stage.
He's still not used to being the masked king.
Bob Ross.
He became the 79th and the 80th King of Mask Singer.
(He's supposed to march this way.)
Bob Ross, who took down Swordsman,
succeeded to win for the second time.
Yes, he's still not used to being the masked king.
Please be excited for his next performance.
Now,
it's time to say bye to Coral Girl.
Please go to the back of the stage.
Now, Coral Girl, take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(She's the singer on top of all other singers.)
(She's reached the state just before unifying all arts.)
(Is Coral Girl a jazz expert?)
(She's a musical actor, Jeong Young Ju.)
Please take off your mask, and reveal your face.
(Oh, my goodness!)
She is...
Who? Who is it?
(Who are you?)
Please reveal your face.
She is...
the singer-songwriter,
who was a member of Bubble Sisters. She is Ms. Kim Su Yeon.
(No way!)
(I don't believe it.)
(They are surprised.)
Please say hi to the viewers.
Hello. I am Kim Su Yeon. It's nice to see you.
(She received a spotlight for her amazing singing ability.)
(She debuted as a member of Bubble Sisters in 2003.)
(She's a great vocalist with a powerful voice.)
(She inherited the talent from her mother, who is a jazz artist.)
(They had the best harmony.)
(Her scat singing is excellent too.)
(She is a natural-born singer who always loves music.)
(With her sorrowful emotion, she sang many soundtracks too.)
(Kim Su Yeon is a talented singer-songwriter.)
When you were invited to be on King of Mask Singer,
I wonder what resolution you had in mind.
Actually, I have been doing music all along.
I work as a vocal trainer,
I've been studying jazz music,
and I make videos for YouTube too.
Because I'm not on TV,
I don't have the opportunity to communicate with the public.
So I mustered up courage.
To show everyone that I am still doing music,
I mustered up my courage and came here.
- I see. - Yes.
Hyun Chul, you watched her perform three times.
I still can't forget the feeling I got when I watched...
her second performance.
- Right. - She sang "Speed".
I was amazed that she sang that song in a jazz style.
That was very special.
When she was doing the scat singing,
she was just like Yun Hee Jeong.
Her gestures were the same too.
So I even said it must be Yun Hee Jeong.
She's a great singer.
But I hope you will become a jazz singer...
who surpasses your mother.
- Thank you. - All right.
With her unchanged singing ability, she touched many people.
Please give a round of applause for Su Yeon once more.
Thank you.
(We will look forward to seeing your work.)
I was actually hesitant.
It had been such a long time,
so I didn't know if I could manage being on TV.
But my mother always says...
that a musician should always communicate with the public.
She said many times, "Who would look at it..."
"if you decorate a room on the second floor?"
I was so touched...
that many people loved my music.
It made me full of emotion.
Coral Girl was me, Kim Su Yeon.
Thank you.
Right. Can I wear it and take a photo of myself with it?
I really wanted to take a photo with it.
Why are there so many water bottles? I'll take one.
Thank you.
Next week.
(In the hot and humid summer,)
(you will stagger without music.)
(King of Mask Singer will blow away the heat.)
(The incredible fortune-telling octopus will give a prophecy,)
(and challengers will pour in like the heavy rain.)
(The masked king will face his biggest crisis.)
(The most unexpected result...)
(will be revealed next week.)
(The throne is mine.)
