The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Previously on King of Mask Singer.
With her voice and raging emotion,
she instantly dominated the stage...
and beat her strong rival.
She successively kept her throne three times in a row.
Her unique voice is on a totally different level.
She overwhelms the audience with her powerful voice.
My Song Could Hurt You,
Dongmakgol Girl!
Fall deepens. We will make you good memories...
with good songs this evening.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
I am your unbiased show host, Kim Seong Ju.
(Hong Seo Beom, JR)
(JooE, Yeonwoo)
Let me introduce an amazing singer.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello.
My song could hurt you.
I'm Dongmakgol Girl.
Since Chuseok is just around the corner,
I prepared a fruit set for you.
A fruit set.
I've been looking forward to today's orange match.
It's an orange.
Would you like something to plum drink?
(Giggling)
(Laughing)
That looks a little too small to call it a fruit set.
- Then I apple-ogize. - "Apple-ogize".
(She's funny.)
I see.
(Embarrassed)
Would you like to say a word?
Today's performance is going to be different.
Is it?
You won't be disappointed!
(We look forward to it.)
There are a few people...
who had to leave the throne because they tried something different.
- I'm confident! - She's confident.
Young people say she's long-term masked queen material.
Long-term masked queen material?
They say she'll keep the throne for a long time.
And she keeps speaking in that dialect.
That's actually not how the people...
in Dongmakgol speak.
That's the dialect of Hamgyong Province.
But that's how Gu Ra taught her.
Why did you teach her like that?
You're from Gwanghwamun. What do you know?
I know something.
(This is hilarious.)
- You've only lived in Seoul. - And you're from Incheon.
(Stubborn)
All right.
Who will be able to survive the competitions...
and become the queen's rival?
Now, let's begin...
the first match of Round One!
(King of Mask Singer)
This is the first match of Round One.
He has waited 2,000 years for today.
My House is Wrecked,
Colosseum.
(My House is Wrecked, Colosseum)
(I'm here to make new history!)
I'm here to make new history!
(Please watch my hot performance.)
(Expectant)
What a strong impression he has.
He actually brought a sword.
Here comes his opponent.
No one would complain about his elegant voice.
I'll Resolve Your Complaints,
Triumphal Arch!
(I'll Resolve Your Complaints, Triumphal Arch)
Knock knock. The new king is here.
Please open the door.
(The word, impossible, is not in my dictionary.)
(Welcome)
Oh, my.
(He walks in grandly.)
He's Napoleon.
(The atmosphere is extremely tense.)
(Which one of them...)
(will overcome this pressure...)
(and make new history by moving on to Round Two?)
("After Breaking Up" by Y2K)
The way he moves his body to the rhythm looks so natural.
(Shall we go?)
(Colosseum starts singing first with a determined voice.)
(His powerful voice touches our hearts.)
(It's followed by Triumph Arch's beautiful and resonant voice.)
(He has a deep voice.)
(His firm and sweet voice fills the stage.)
(It's been a long time since I heard this song.)
(Looking majestic)
Triumph Arch's performance is stable. It's great.
(Excited)
For Colosseum, this is just a warm-up.
(His voice is powerful and solid.)
(He fights back with his confident voice.)
(Their harmony sounds powerful like it's bringing news of victory.)
(Their passion warms up the cold fall evening.)
(Their voices are amazing.)
(Their hearts pound.)
It's so nice to hear this song after such a long while.
It's so manly.
The first match of Round One is now over.
First, I'd like to ask the poet of the Korean music industry,
Yu Young Seok.
How did you like the performance?
Colosseum's build...
is too small to fight in the Colosseum,
so I thought his nickname didn't suit him.
But when he started to sing,
I could feel muscles in his voice.
(His strength was hidden in his voice.)
- I could feel his tendons too. - I see.
He says, "My house is wrecked",
but he's the one who destroyed his house.
- He's 100 percent surely a singer. - So he's a singer.
On the other hand, when Triumph Arch walked in,
I was overawed.
Just the way he stands...
makes him look like a musician.
But as he started singing,
I realized I was wrong.
Does that mean he's not a singer?
He sings well,
but he might not be a professional singer.
He has a sweet voice,
and those who have such a voice usually sound soft.
But his voice is beautiful...
and solid.
He has a solid and beautiful voice?
His voice suits the song very well,
but I think he might not be a professional singer.
I don't think so.
- You don't think so? - I think he's a singer as well.
- You think he's a singer too. - Yes.
If he's not a professional singer,
he can't sing this Y2K's song...
so comfortably.
I think it's not possible.
- I think... - Please speak after...
- I introduce you. - I see.
You're a little impatient. Let me give a nice introduction about you.
He's Korea's first officially recognized all-round artist.
Let me introduce Hong Seo Beom.
Hello. Thank you.
(Nice to meet you.)
Colosseum's legs tell...
- that he's in his 50s. - Is he in his 50s?
They look similar to mine.
But he works out a bit.
- And I know who he is. - What?
Just by looking at his legs?
His voice, the way he walks,
and the way he acts so playful tells who he is.
He is Jeon Won Seok.
- Jeon Won Seok. - He performed "Don't Leave Me".
You know who he is, right?
Colosseum is Jeon Won Seok. He's surely a singer.
- As for Triumph Arch... - Triumph Arch.
I thought he might be a singer,
but as he started singing,
I changed my mind. He might be rather an actor.
- An actor? - Yes.
- His expression was very nice. - I see.
Besides, he sings as if he speaks.
That made me think he's an actor.
- Things like that are hard to hide. - Exactly.
I don't know his name, but I have a feeling that he's an actor.
- You think he's an actor. - Yes.
- And you know his name. - Won Seok, good job.
You think it's Jeon Won Seok.
It seems like there are many different ideas.
JooE of MOMOLAND, did you raise your hand?
- Yes. - Did you notice something?
- Yes! - What is it?
I don't think he's a professional singer.
- You don't? - No.
Since he's a great singer,
I thought he was a professional singer at first.
But he counted the rhythm with his hand like this.
Normally, singers don't count the rhythm with their hands...
before they start singing.
I saw him do that...
and thought that he's probably not a professional singer.
So what you're saying is that counting the rhythm means...
- that he's not singer material. - No!
- Right? If he was a singer, - No!
he should've counted it in his head.
You think that's a crucial point, right?
All right. What about Colosseum? Did he make any gestures like that?
Not at all.
He made me notice Triumphal Arch's gestures more easily.
I see.
- The sandals Colosseum is wearing. - Yes?
Normally, people would...
complain about putting on sandals like those.
They'd say, "Why do I have to put on sandals like these?"
But I think he would've enjoyed putting them on...
and taken pictures of them.
He's probably someone in his 20s who finds it fun...
to put on things like those sandals.
I think he's someone that these guys...
- would probably know. Yes. - Really?
Well, he did enjoy putting on these sandals.
- Right? I knew it. - Yes.
I can tell you that.
- It's because... - He was very happy.
those are the kind of shoes...
that you can't normally wear.
Putting them on must be a breakaway for him.
When we suggested them, he didn't complain.
He was very happy to put them on. He did take many pictures of them.
I can tell you this much.
If he's in his 50s,
he will have the marks of those straps for a few days.
- If he's... - The elasticity of his skin?
- If he's in his 20s, - Is it about his elasticity?
the marks will disappear right away.
She's talking about how good his blood circulation is.
I think he will have the marks from the straps...
probably until tomorrow morning.
I believe he's someone in his mid-30s to early 40s.
Guessing his age group by looking at his legs...
is kind of demeaning for us.
You've been talking about it until now too!
- You say it like only I said that. - No!
I only made a comment because he mentioned it first.
We're supposed to guess who he is based on his voice!
Why would you talk about the marks from the sandals?
I did talk about his voice!
Obsessing about his legs...
- could make you biased. - Right.
Please focus on his voice.
I thought he would be in his 30s to 40s because...
I saw how much he enjoyed singing this song.
"After Breaking Up" was released when Bong Sun and I...
- Were students. - Yes, we were students.
So when we heard the song,
we got really excited and started dancing.
But Colosseum also danced to the rhythm like us.
Looking at the way he danced to the rhythm,
I came to think he'd be around our age.
He's someone who remembers the old days.
Someone who was in middle school or high school in the 90s?
That's right.
Thank you for sharing your opinions.
Let's check out their specialties now.
Colosseum will go first.
He will dance to a female idol group's song.
JooE, watch his dance closely.
- She's sees such things well. - I believe this will make it...
easier for you to guess his age.
It's Colosseum's dance. Music, please!
("Power Up" by Red Velvet is a refreshing song.)
(How will Colosseum...)
(dance to this addictive song?)
He's moving his arms and legs cheerfully.
(His busy arms and legs oddly captivate you.)
(Moving his body from side to side)
He learned this dance for today.
(His dance becomes more absorbing.)
Please watch his dance closely.
(JooE dances with him.)
JooE seems to know this dance as well.
(It's raining bananas.)
(You have the most fun when you play!)
(Bam, bam, bam, bam)
That's it.
(That was great.)
- He's a good dancer. - He actually has a nice build.
Most idol singers are not that muscular.
Also, he pretended like he's a bad dancer.
- Really? - Did he?
- He did. He's also muscular. - I bet he's in his 20s.
You do work out a lot, right?
Doesn't everyone work out every day?
"Doesn't everyone work out every day?"
Did you start to work out because...
you got a problem with your health?
I work out to stay healthy and fit.
All right. It's not because he got a problem with his health.
He's giving me textbook answers.
I think he's from SM Entertainment.
Isn't that just your bias?
Artists from SM Entertainment gave textbook answers in the 2000s.
They don't do that anymore though.
The company now respects the artists' individuality.
- I think he's in his early 30s. - You think he's older?
He's probably a few years younger...
- than Bong Sun. - Yes, I think so too.
About 32 or 33?
- He has been born in 1985 or 1986. - Right.
All right. Now, it's Triumphal Arch's turn.
His specialty is the mimicry of everyday sounds.
First, it's the sound of blowing up a balloon. Let us hear it.
(The balloon gets bigger by his breath.)
(It sounds as if he's actually blowing up a balloon.)
It sounds like he's snoring.
- That's all. - He should tie it up.
The sound of blowing up a balloon.
I guess it did sound a little like it,
but it was a bit different. All right.
This time,
he will show us his nunchaku techniques.
Triumphal Arch, please show us your nunchaku techniques!
(Spinning)
He's using only one of his hands.
All right.
(Here we go.)
Good.
I guess that's the basic technique.
(Bruce Lee's famous gesture)
What's important is that gesture.
It's not easy to do that because...
- he's wearing a mask. - Right.
He can't see things well.
These epaulettes got in the way a little.
The fact that he did it despite the bad conditions means...
he didn't have any other specialties.
That must've been it.
Using nunchakus was the first thing he put down as his specialty.
I definitely know who he is now.
- All of a sudden? - Again?
Among actors, using nunchakus is something...
- only those in their 40s can do. - So who is it?
- He mimicked the balloon sound too. - Who is it?
I'm sure he's Choi Soo Jong.
Choi Soo Jong?
- He did work at many events. - He's blown up a lot of balloons.
He has thrown many surprise events using balloons.
The sound of blowing up or popping a balloon is...
- He'd know it well? - Exactly.
Seo Beom thinks that this is a match between...
Jeon Won Seok versus Choi Soo Jong.
- Yes. That's his guess. - That's right.
All right. Now, I will announce...
the result of the first match of Round One.
Who will be the first one to move on to Round Two?
Who will win this match...
and send the news of victory? Let's find out now!
(He has a powerful voice.)
(Colosseum filled the stage with grandeur.)
(He has a delicate and confident voice.)
(Triumphal Arch stood tall with the power of victory.)
Who will win this match...
and move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(It was a match between grand landmarks.)
(Which of them do people want to see again?)
(Dongmakgol is always the best.)
The winner is...
Who's the winner?
(Colosseum wins.)
Colosseum is the winner.
It's Colosseum.
He's the winner.
(Let's go for Round Two!)
(That's too bad for Triumphal Arch.)
He defeated Triumphal Arch...
and moved on to Round Two.
The score is 67 to 32.
The final score is 67 to 32.
Colosseum, please go back to your waiting room.
Let's give him a big hand.
He's the first one to move on to Round Two.
I will give a more powerful performance in Round Two.
Wait for me, Round Two!
Now, we have a man here with a solid, beautiful voice.
Who could he be?
We will reveal his identity with a solo performance he prepared.
Please give him a round of applause!
(A soft yet solid voice)
(He has a great ability of expressing his feelings.)
(His voice range is too wide for someone who's not a singer.)
(Many names have been mentioned. Who is he?)
What song is this? Is he a singer?
I think he'll sound great if he sings a ballad.
("Do You Want to Walk With Me" by Lee Juck)
I think he'll be amazing.
(His beautiful voice sounds even softer.)
Isn't he a singer?
(This is great.)
(His delicate expression of his feelings captivates us.)
Now,
Triumphal Arch, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(Surprised)
- He is... - The reaction is huge.
Who is he?
He must be famous.
He is...
the veteran actor who specializes in acting as a king.
He's Jung Tae Woo.
(The king has come.)
(They didn't expect to see him here on the stage.)
It's been such a long time.
Oh, gosh.
It's Tae Woo.
(His identity is a twist to everyone.)
(This is awesome.)
(He sings with all his sincerity.)
(He delivered his comfort with all his sincerity.)
("Do You Want to Walk With Me" by Jung Tae Woo)
(You are so cool.)
(They're touched.)
He's so cool.
It's been such a long time.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, it's nice to see you. I'm Jung Tae Woo.
All right.
(He debuted through "MBC Bestseller Theater" in 1987.)
(He captured people's attention with his extraordinary acting skills...)
(and delicate expression of emotions.)
(He even became the winner of Child Actor Award at KBS Drama Awards.)
(I got an award.)
(He left a huge impression by acting as a king in many dramas.)
(He was complimented for his charismatic acting.)
(He even pulled off comical roles...)
(and piled up his acting experiences in various ways.)
(He also participated in making the soundtrack of "Nonstop".)
(He proved his competency as a musical actor as well.)
(He's a versatile actor who even released his own song.)
(Jung Tae Woo...)
(is like a chameleon who is capable of infinite changes.)
I heard you wanted...
to show some of your new sides on this show.
I used to be very uncomfortable...
and afraid of stages like this in the past.
But these days, I'm looking after my two children,
which is said to be busier than the schedule of an idol singer.
The life with my two children...
has made me become fearless.
I had much fear in the past.
But without much nervousness this time,
I easily decided to come here on stage.
Now that I'm here, I'm very nervous.
The panelists saw through your nervousness...
and thought you were looking awkward...
which led them to guess he might be an actor.
I'm really sorry...
that I didn't recognize him.
You thought he was Choi Soo Jong, didn't you?
We live in the same neighborhood.
I've seen him since he got married and even played baseball with him.
- You should've recognized him then. - And he...
came out here, but I couldn't recognize him. I'm so sorry.
But Ho Young is the one who was supposed to recognize him.
We were very careful about him.
(He should've known?)
It's good to see you, my friend.
- A junior from military service? - Yes.
- He's also my friend. - We're friends.
He was the youngest member of the military musical team.
- He was? - We performed together and stuff.
If he had chosen to sing a higher song,
I might've recognized him because he's good at singing high notes.
His voice is catchy too.
I might've recognized him then, but I'm 100 percent at fault here.
Someone didn't notice your voice even when you performed together.
And someone didn't notice you when you live in the same neighborhood.
You often played the role of kings and crown princes.
I'm sure a lot of people think of you...
as a quiet and serious person.
How are you in real life?
Because of my job as an actor,
I happen to live other people's lives in dramas and movies.
But I wanted to tell my story through music this time.
As I became a dad and raised two children,
I came to think a lot about what it means to be a dad.
It made me release an album titled, "Name Called Dad".
- Oh, really? - Yes.
I wanted to share my feelings...
with many dads in this world.
When Gu Ra's son came out here not long ago,
I was deeply touched.
- I see. - Right.
He didn't recognize his son's voice at first,
but he noticed it at one point.
He went, "That's my son",
- with a bright smile. - That's my son.
It wasn't fake at all.
My song was like Gu Ra's face expression...
at that moment.
We're dads forever.
- Right. - Thank you.
I'm sure his two children...
must be proud to watch their dad today.
Just like his experienced acting skills,
he showed off his great singing ability.
- Give him a round of applause. - Thank you.
(Go for it, Tae Woo.)
I think I'll do a better job if I could try again.
(Smiling)
It was great and fun.
It felt like a break away.
I'm determined to live as an actor until the day I die.
I want to be an actor who never moves between hopes and fears.
In the future, I'll try to show...
many different sides of myself that aren't like my usual image.
I'll Resolve Your Complaints,
Triumphal Arch, was me, Jung Tae Woo.
Go for it, King of Mask Singer.
Go for it, Jung Tae Woo.
As the result of Round One, My House is Wrecked, Colosseum...
won against Jung Tae Woo and advanced to Round Two.
It's the second match of Round One.
Bring the cutter.
Mr. Moon Shine, Justice Bao.
(Mr. Moon Shine, Justice Bao)
(I will take off to the sky with the lunar energy.)
(Bring me the throne.)
(He's the best.)
That's a character from my childhood.
(He makes a charismatic entrance.)
(Intimidated)
He has a big build.
Against him...
is a singer with a high-end voice more beautiful than stars.
The Starry Night,
Concubine.
(The Starry Night Concubine)
(The moment the stars shine over me,)
(I'll take over the throne.)
(Welcome)
"The Starry Night Concubine".
They have different genders this time.
She's quite tall.
(The characters are from the 2 movies loved by Chinese in 1990's.)
(Which one of them will be chosen by the audience?)
(Will it be the merciless Justice Bao?)
(Or will it be Concubine with a dramatic life?)
I love this song.
It's a foreign song.
"Beauty and the Beast".
(It's the soundtrack of "Beauty and the Beast".)
(It's also the duet song of Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson.)
(Amazed)
How beautiful.
(She whispers sweetly and softly.)
(Her beautiful voice spreads clearly throughout the studio.)
Who is this person?
(His firm voice resonates heavily.)
(Amazed)
(The performance opens with a fascinating harmony.)
(House Band)
(The starlight and the moonlight embroiders the audience's hearts.)
Doesn't it feel like watching an animation by Walt Disney?
- I know. - Right?
(The waltz melody of "Beauty and the Beast" fills the stage.)
(Where is my prince?)
(Tale as old as time)
(Tune as old as song)
(Bittersweet and strange)
(Finding you can change)
(Learning you were wrong)
(Certain as the sun)
(Rising in the east)
(Tale as old as time)
(Song as old as rhyme)
(Justice Bao and Concubine sang of a magical fantasy.)
(The ending leaves everyone with lingering emotions.)
(It was beautiful and dazzling.)
Both of them are good. It was nice.
Is he a foreign singer who came to perform in Korea?
Is he a foreigner?
The second match of Round One came to an end.
Hyun Chul, tell us what you think.
Concubine is someone...
who sings perfectly in tune.
She knows exactly what it means...
to sing properly.
Among the various techniques,
she showed us all of the key techniques.
As for Justice Bao,
his build and everything else tell me that...
he majored in vocal music.
He reminds me...
of the late Pavarotti.
He points out...
the keys when he sings.
It's very charming.
We were in a frenzy...
because we think he might be someone who came to perform in Korea.
Ryan Reynolds has visited the show...
when he was here...
to promote his new movie.
- This could be something similar. - That's right.
There is an artist I have always wanted to meet.
I think he is here today.
An artist you have always wanted to meet.
I watched videos of him...
many times.
They touched me and made me cry.
Justice Bao sang with the same sound.
- Does his name start with P? - No.
- It starts with P, right? - Yes.
Placido Domingo's concert is in October 26th, right?
- Is he in Korea already? - I looked up the upcoming concerts.
- Placido Domingo's concert came up. - I see.
He has a concert scheduled in Korea.
But can he continue to come if he becomes King of Mask Singer?
- The possibility... - Then he should stay in Korea.
- Are you sure? - What are you talking about?
He has to stay in Korea if he becomes King of Mask Singer.
As for Concubine,
there is the original version...
and the more recent version of "Beauty and the Beast".
For the remake,
John Legend and Ariana Grande sang the song.
And she sang the song in Ariana Grande's style.
Is that so?
That means she is very young.
She is a young woman...
who grew up watching the recent version of the movie.
That's what you think about Concubine.
- Is she a singer? - Yes, she is.
You have to be a singer when you have such a voice.
Judging from their voices,
I wrote down "Dad and daughter".
Regardless of the age difference,
Concubine has a voice...
that makes me want to embrace her.
And Justice Bao has a voice...
that makes me want to be embraced by him.
It's a dependable voice.
The performance was unique and mystical.
"Beauty and the Beast" is by Disney,
but the two masked singers who are wearing Asian costumes...
sang the song together.
I felt like I was watching a newly animated film.
- Seo Beom. - Yes.
Since it's "Beauty and the Beast",
the female masked singer could be Jo Gap Gyeong, "The beauty".
The female masked singer could be Jo Gap Gyeong, "The beauty".
- I have my reasons. - Jo Gap Gyeong is...
She was invited to the show today too,
but she said she is busy and turned down the offer.
Perhaps she performed on the stage...
without my knowledge.
- You think she is Jo Gap Gyeong. - She could be...
- Excuse me. - I had that thought for a second.
Listen to me. Hold on.
- I didn't say much. - I had that thought for a second.
Then the song started.
I listened to a radio program a few days ago...
and one of the guests was Bae Da Hae.
I see.
She could be Bae Da Hae too.
- Bae Da Hae. - That's right.
"That could be the case."
"She is Bae Da Hae, not Jo Gap Gyeong."
I reached that conclusion.
Upon hearing Seo Beom's words,
I think she is Jo Gap Gyeong.
- Really? - Yes.
- You think she is Jo Gap Gyeong? - She has a home shopping show.
She might have lied to me.
She might have lied that she has a home shopping show today.
That was the excuse she gave for not joining the show today.
- I have a hunch. - Is it Jo Gap Gyeong or Bae Da Hae?
- Bae Da Hae. - I see.
You should recognize your wife.
- Hold on. - But you didn't recognize your son.
Are we certain that...
Justice Bao is a foreigner?
- It's not like that. - Listen.
- You think he is a foreigner. - Seong Ju,
let me tell you something. We have done this for three years.
A few foreigners have visited the show.
When a masked singer sings a pop song,
the panelists look up...
the upcoming concerts by foreign artists.
(They look up upcoming concerts by foreign artists.)
We can tell from the schedule.
- Is that so? - Yes.
- My goodness. - So...
if he wants to show that he isn't a foreigner,
he should take off the in-ear headphones.
What we say is getting interpreted...
by an interpreter.
If he takes off his in-ear headphones,
we will know that he is Korean.
If he takes off the in-ear headphones...
(If that's what you think, you leave me no choice.)
He needs those for singing.
It's for an interpreter.
Hold on. Justice Bao took off...
- his in-ear headphones. - It looks like that.
No, he didn't take them off. Let me see your ear.
The interpreter ordered him to do that.
No, no.
(I don't have a problem without them.)
(He was ordered to do that.)
Look at that.
He seems to understand Korean.
I bet he was ordered to do this whenever he feels awkward.
He seems to understand Korean.
Mr. P...
- Is he Mr. P? - Mr. P seems to have...
a good sense for variety shows...
because he has been to Korea often.
I can't wait to see...
what kind of a specialty he will show us.
I can't wait.
Does Mr. P have a specialty...
or not? I'm eager to find out about that too.
Well, the panelists think...
he is Mr. P.
It's time to check out their specialties.
First, Concubine prepared...
imitating the sounds of animals from around the world.
She will first imitate a frog. It's different for each country.
Give us a Korean frog.
(Gaegul gaegul)
Gaegul gaegul.
Give us an American frog.
(Ribbit-ribbit)
Is she a foreigner?
She sounds like a foreigner, right?
Give us a Japanese frog.
(Kero kero.)
Kero kero.
I know who she is.
- She is a foreigner, right? - She is a foreigner.
- She is Christina. - Christina.
- She is Christina. - She is Christina.
She studied vocal music in Italy.
I thought only her husband did that.
Oh, you aren't talking about Aguilera.
Christina Aguilera?
(They can't believe their ears.)
You went too far.
- She could be Christina Aguilera. - She is Christina.
- "I am Christina." That Christina? - Yes.
- Her husband studied vocal music. - That's right.
- She met her husband at school. - That's how she knew vocal music?
- All right. - She is Christina.
- She is Christina. - Let's see more of her specialty.
Lastly, she will imitate the sound of a pig.
Give us a Korean pig.
(She gives an honest sound.)
Give us an American pig.
(Oink, oink.)
Give us a Japanese pig.
(Bbuing bbuing.)
Let's end it here.
- She isn't Christina. - I don't think she is Christina.
- She does sound like a foreigner. - That's right.
The panelists think both of them are foreigners.
This time, Justice Bao will show you his specialty.
This is what you have been waiting for.
I can't wait to see Mr. P's specialty.
We might get a world-famous meme.
Justice Bao's specialty is breaking pine boards.
He is strong.
- He hid his identity well. - Seriously.
He has a big build.
He will break pine boards.
Foreigners have that experience at the Korean Folk Village.
- They find it fun. - All right.
All right. Now,
to warm up,
he will break two pine boards.
He will break two boards first.
Justice Bao will smash two pine boards.
Please show us.
(Just punch!)
(My goodness.)
Justice Bao.
- All right. - Wait.
Can I ask Justice Bao a favor?
- What favor? - Can he shout like an opera singer?
- Like an opera singer? - Like this.
You want him to shout like an opera singer.
- Okay? - Can you do that?
Can you shout like an opera singer as you smash the boards?
- He says he can. - I see.
We will increase the number of boards.
This time, he will try to break...
four pine boards.
Please smash four boards while shouting like an opera singer.
They say he has good vocalization.
Please break four pine boards.
(Shouting in a sonorous voice)
(It's a miracle punch with amazing vocalization.)
This will make a great meme.
- That was wonderful. Good. - Did you hear that?
- Wonderful. Good. - He has a great voice.
He even tries to make a good meme.
They will show you one more specialty.
Concubine will show her dance.
(She dances the way she feels.)
Is she the one you guys have in mind?
Okay. Music, please.
All right. She's getting into the rhythm.
Watch her carefully.
Do you think she's a good dancer?
With the way she feels.
She's not dancing to a fixed routine.
She's just dancing as she feels.
She's cute.
All right. She's dancing with her instinct.
The way she feels.
(She finishes it shyly after showing off her moves.)
That's it. Good.
That was nice. Good job.
I think she knows how to dance.
I don't think she's Christina.
There are some idol artists from foreign countries...
who can speak Korean.
Right. They mostly speak good Korean.
Justice Bao, I wonder if you can...
dance to the same song.
Can you do that? The way you feel, okay?
(Okay?)
He says it's okay.
He accepted the offer.
Please give me the microphone.
He might be an idol artist.
- He looks very shy. - Watch him carefully.
- Don't be shy. - All right.
Dance the way you feel.
He's very shy.
- It's okay. - Don't be shy.
Music, please.
(Shy)
(He changes abruptly.)
(Here we go.)
Justice Bao.
(This is exciting.)
He's dancing the way he feels.
(Like this?)
(His robe is fluttering on the stage.)
This is like a Korean dance.
It looks somewhat familiar.
(His moves have a Korean groove.)
That's it. That's enough.
That was good, Justice Bao.
(He's shy again.)
- He's very shy. - You did a very good job.
His moves looked a bit Korean though.
I know.
All right. Now, I will announce the result...
of the second match of Round One.
Between Justice Bao and Concubine, subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
who stole your hearts and won this match?
I'll now reveal the winner.
(He has a dignified and gentle voice.)
(Justice Bao is the justice of music.)
(She has a mysterious voice.)
(Concubine has a fascinating charm.)
Who is the winner of this match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Who is the winner?)
(Who will move on to Round Two?)
(I have no idea.)
Justice Bao or Concubine?
Who will move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
(Mr. Moon Shine, Justice Bao wins.)
This is amazing. The winner is Justice Bao.
(Justice Bao is a good judge.)
(Justice Bao will be here again next week.)
Concubine was very good too though.
Justice Bao beats Concubine...
and moves on to Round Two.
It was a neck and neck match.
The score is 55 to 44. The margin is only 11 votes.
Justice Bao won by a narrow margin.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Please give him a big hand.
Justice Bao moves on to Round Two.
(Laughing)
Good luck.
Then who is she?
We will reveal her identity with a solo performance.
Please give her a big hand.
(Her identity will be revealed with a solo performance.)
(She sings very accurately.)
(She sings like Ariana Grande.)
(She sounds like a young singer.)
(She has a soft and pure voice.)
(Bae Da Hae?)
(Or Christina?)
(There is a variety of opinions. Who is Concubine?)
(What is this familiar beat?)
What song is this?
(What song is this?)
(This is amazing.)
(People start to dance as they hear the intro.)
Is it "Playing With Fire"?
("Playing With Fire" by BLACKPINK)
(Surprised)
(Unlike Round One, she sounds powerful.)
(She sets fire to people's hearts with her voice immediately.)
(With her trendy voice,)
(she fascinates everyone.)
(They are all so into Concubine.)
(Let's start to play with fire.)
(Dancing)
(As if they're playing with fire in the middle of the night,)
(they can't resist her voice.)
(My heart is burning.)
- Who is she? - Now,
Concubine, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(Shocked)
I think she's a foreigner.
They are really shocked.
I'm so excited.
(Who are you?)
Reveal your identity.
She is a former member of the global girl group, KARA,
Nicole.
(What is Nicole doing here?)
(Covering their mouths)
Nicole?
(I can't believe that she's Nicole!)
This is amazing.
(Smiling)
(They couldn't even imagine it.)
(She can't help the quiver in her voice,)
(but she is enjoying her performance.)
It's Nicole.
It was Nicole.
(The identity of Concubine)
(She shows the vibe of a rapper as she raps.)
(The color of my heart is black)
(Our love is like playing with fire)
(Let's burn it.)
(Going wild)
(She burns the stage with her charisma alone.)
(With her pure voice,)
(she shows off her flame-like charm.)
(Nicole burned her everything with "Playing With Fire".)
(That was wonderful.)
She's so attractive.
(They're into Nicole's charm.)
She's a solo artist now. It's Nicole.
Hello, I'm Nicole. Nice to meet you.
(She made her debut as KARA at the age of 17 in 2007.)
("KARA's new single album has topped the Oricon weekly chart in Japan")
(They won a lot of awards and topped various music charts.)
(They became one of the most popular Korean girl groups.)
(They used to be cute and cheerful girls,)
(but soon became charismatic female artists.)
(The main dancer and rapper, Nicole)
(She made people laugh from a foreigner's perspective...)
(and appeared in many variety shows with her good sense of humor.)
(She even hosted a TV music show.)
(She has now become a solo artist.)
(Nicole has a variety of charms.)
Was it about this time last year?
- Yes. - You were here...
- as a panelist. - Right.
Because of the experience of being here as a panelist last year,
I was able to decide to perform here without worrying too much.
When I only watched the show on TV, it looked very black.
It was dark, and it slightly felt cold.
But when I came here, I realized it was actually warm.
I thought perhaps I would be able to hear words of encouragement...
if I came out here as a masked singer.
That's why I decided to come here. It felt heartwarming.
Right. They said you had the voice...
- of a teenager. - I loved that.
They said your voice sounds fresh.
(Because of her fresh voice,)
(they expected her to be a teenager.)
That's what they said. Did you like hearing that?
- Of course. - Right.
- You... - I'm turning 30 soon.
Are you already about to turn 30?
- I am not 30 just yet. - Not yet.
She's been a familiar face to us for 10 years now.
She dances very well too.
Her career as a soloist is very active,
so we will watch her with great expectations.
Let us see you often.
She performed again after four years,
and she showed how mature she became as a singer.
Please give a cheer for Nicole.
Thank you.
(We hope to see you more often at various places.)
When I was wearing the mask, I looked at the audience.
But when I took it off,
I couldn't stop staring at the floor and shaking my hands.
I realized that the mask really gives you the sense of security.
I trembled too much,
and I wasn't too happy with my performance.
But I think I've succeeded to show the new side of me.
The Starry Night Concubine...
was me, Nicole.
I will work hard. Please cheer for me.
Bye, bye. Thank you.
This is the third match of Round One.
(Juggling)
I Prepared Every Kind of Fruit for You,
Fruit Basket.
(I Prepared Every Kind of Fruit for You, Fruit Basket)
When you listen to my refreshing voice, you will fall for me.
(I am the best gift ever. It's me.)
(I want it.)
Fruit baskets are the best Chuseok gift.
She brought real fruits.
- Is it a man? - Or is it a woman?
Contending against her is this masked singer.
He's the number one gift set.
If You Choose Me, I Will Be Honored.
Dried Yellow Corvina Set.
(If You Choose Me, I Will Be Honored. Dried Yellow Corvina Set)
If you fall for my performance once,
you won't be able to get out of it.
(I am the precious Dried Yellow Corvina Set.)
(We are honored.)
I love dried yellow corvina.
Dried yellow corvina.
He's very goofy.
They are both gift sets. I'd like to get both.
(It's time to show the power of the best holiday gifts.)
(Who will capture the hearts of the panelists...)
(and threaten the queen?)
(Which gift set will win?)
("As Time Passes" by Choi Ho Sub)
It's autumn.
("As Time Passes" by Choi Ho Sub)
(My goodness.)
(His voice is calm yet mellow.)
(It's lovely.)
(He holds his hands together and sings seriously.)
(Dried Yellow Corvina Set puts his heart into the song.)
(He's nervous,)
(but he calmly sings with his honorable voice.)
(He's got a voice as luxurious as a dried yellow corvina set.)
(It's an honor to be able to listen to your voice.)
He's sincere.
(They are excited.)
(My goodness.)
(Her husky voice attacks our hearts from the start.)
(No!)
(It's incredible.)
(Like a full fruit basket, her voice is filled with emotion.)
(Her sorrowful voice penetrates our hearts.)
(The number 1 gift sets perform a quality duet.)
(We will never be able to forget their harmony.)
(Their "As Time Passes" left the feeling of longing.)
(In this autumn night, they are drenched in emotion.)
(Bravo.)
They bring back our memories.
The third match...
of Round One has ended.
Who would these two be? Kai?
I think their biggest charm...
is sincerity.
- Sincerity? - Yes.
They don't sing to look cool.
They sing with their heart.
That's sincerity. I think that's their biggest charm.
- Yes. Yes. - When you go home...
for Chuseok,
your mom doesn't cook you fancy dishes.
She cooks the most humble dishes like doenjang jjigae...
with the utmost care and love.
And she prepares a feast of those dishes.
Dried Yellow Corvina Set's performance...
- was like that meal. - Your mother's love?
- Right. - Personally,
I don't think he is a singer.
I think he is someone who sincerely works for TV shows.
That's the impression I got from hearing his voice.
- That's what I think. - That's quite a broad term.
- It is a broad term. - Yes.
Fruit Basket's voice...
contains a lot of feelings.
And the most prominent of all...
was longing.
It felt sentimental and lonely.
- And that made me feel hurt. - It sounded lonely.
- Yes. - It had the feeling of longing too.
I think it's the voice I heard often in the '80s...
when I was still young.
Right. Let's hear Ho Young's opinion.
When Dried Yellow Corvina Set was singing the intro,
it sounded as if he was reciting a poem.
I loved it. But after hearing it for a while,
I realize he might be a narrator of human documentaries.
(I agree with you.)
His voice sounds too familiar.
It would suit him well.
It sounds very familiar.
I think I've heard it somewhere.
Perhaps we haven't seen his face much on TV,
but we might have heard his voice a lot.
- His voice made me think that way. - Right.
Both of them are close with me.
- You're close with both of them? - Yes.
You're not close with Dried Yellow Corvina Set.
I am close with him. I know him.
I am sorry, but after three rounds, I am not even curious anymore.
So...
when I was marrying a beautiful singer,
the person on the left was involved.
I carried the box and went in.
Then there were my wife's friends.
My four friends asked them to sing.
Nobody wanted to sing but her.
That's a very personal reason.
The song she sang goes like this.
(He even remembers the song she sang.)
It's Yang Hee Eun's song.
- She sang this song. - Yes.
She's Yang Su Gyeong.
(What?)
- Jo Gap Gyeong's friend? - She's Yang Su Gyeong.
- Yes. - I...
- Jang Hyuk. - I don't think so.
Did anyone get the feeling...
that Fruit Basket's performance was somewhat Korean?
I did.
Did anyone think it sounded like gugak?
Me. I did.
She tried so hard to hide it,
but I could hear it.
In gugak, some notes sometimes...
suddenly drop.
Her vibrato sounded like gugak too.
(As time passes)
(Fruit Basket's vibrato sounded like gugak.)
(Focused)
(He notices something.)
There aren't many gugak musicians who would be on this show.
Did you watch the movie...
Oh Jung Hae?
- Oh Jung Hae. - Oh Jung Hae.
Oh Jung Hae. Right.
Oh Jung Hae is pretty short.
Oh Jung Hae.
So her performance sounded like gugak to you.
- Yes. - It was very folksy,
and Korean.
It sounded very much like pansori to me.
I thought of the same.
When she was singing, "Please remember",
her vibrato sounded a lot like gugak.
I think she's invited to the show because it's a Chuseok Special.
Dried Yellow Corvina Set is left out now.
- He said he knew him as well. - Please tell us about it.
- He's not a singer. - Dried Yellow Corvina Set.
He composes musicals,
and he's originally a comedian.
- Who is he? - He used to be Tin Tin Five.
- Tin Tin Five? - Yes.
- Pyo In Bong? - Yes, exactly.
Pyo In Bong?
This is a mess.
(Flustered)
- Why do you encourage him? - The two are...
- are of a similar age too. - This is just a mess.
You think she's Yang Su Gyeong and he's Pyo In Bong.
- I'm 100 percent sure. - Excuse me.
Pyo In Bong's head...
is as big as the mask.
- You mean his head is big? - Yes.
He's my direct senior as a comedian.
When I first heard him singing,
I thought he could be Choi Yang Rak.
- Choi Yang Rak? - But he's not Choi Yang Rak.
Then Kai said something to me.
Gosh, Kai is very sharp.
He's very accurate with the voices he hears.
And just like Ho Young said earlier,
he's good at dubbing and narration.
- So he's protecting his identity? - Yes, he is.
Kai is protecting his identity.
Actually, if Kai's idea turns out to be true,
these guys should know him.
He's very popular among the people in their 20s.
- Is he? - Yes.
- You like video games, right? - All of a sudden?
- Video games? - Yes, I do.
- Is he related to video games? - Then you should know him.
- Then you should know him. - Is he related to video games?
Is he Lim Yo Hwan?
Hong Jin Ho?
- Is he a pro gamer? - A pro gamer?
They think too simple.
Great Library?
Great Library is now on the list.
Great Library?
(Peeping)
Is it Great Library the person you wanted to protect?
Seong Ju.
Gu Ra seems a little flustered now.
Do I have to hide his identity?
- I mean... - I don't need to be flustered.
He seems flustered.
- He looks flustered. - You look flustered.
- Why do you say I am flustered? - No way.
That's not it.
When you're confused,
their specialties...
will help you...
figure out who they are.
We'll start with Dried Yellow Corvina Set.
He's going to dance to...
"Baam" by MOMOLAND.
Music, please.
(Music starts playing.)
(How will Dried Yellow Corvina Set dance to "Baam"?)
Here he goes.
(He warms up, by gently shaking his body.)
It doesn't look bad.
(What is that?)
He's not moving his body a lot.
(It only looks a bit like the original choreography.)
He looks like he's doing a body wave.
(I will fix the traffic jam on the holidays.)
(While you're bored, dried yellow corvinas are on sale.)
(Take a dried yellow corvina.)
(He wraps it up with a nice pose.)
That's it.
(Good job.)
- He did a great job, - He did?
but I don't think he's a dancer.
- You weren't finished yet. - But he did a great job.
JooE.
- How good did his dance... - Yes?
seem to you on a scale of 100 compared to your teammates?
The step and arm moves...
are very difficult,
but he did it almost perfectly.
- I'll give him 91 points. - 91 points.
Good.
Can we see your 100-point dance...
together with his 91-point dance?
Right here?
(We want to see it.)
Since we have the original performers here.
Music, please!
(He dances to "Baam" with MOMOLAND.)
They're warming up.
(They're ready.)
Let's dance together.
That's so good.
Moves like that are so good.
(Dancing)
It's not bad.
The footwork is difficult.
(His feet look lost.)
(This is hilarious.)
This is where one can make a mistake.
(At least this part is perfect.)
(He tries hard to catch up with them.)
He's catching up all right.
(He still looks like a traffic officer.)
(As always, this part is perfect.)
That was it.
(Good job, Dried Yellow Corvina Set.)
Thank you. Please go back to your seat. Don't look at him.
Now, go back to your seat.
JooE, you're doing a good job.
- Thank you. - JooE, keep going.
- JooE, good job. - Enough.
- This way. - Great job, JooE.
- Good Job, JooE. - You'll get me in trouble.
- She never lets me down. - Quickly return to your seats.
I don't know about other dances,
but this move was good.
All right. Enough.
Thank you.
I feel like Dried Yellow Corvina Set is my close friend.
- Who is it? - I don't know who it is,
but I feel like we once used to be under the same roof.
- Roof? - Yes.
He's either a comedian or...
His voice sounds so familiar.
I've seen such moves somewhere.
- Please think more about it. - That's impossible.
Think about it.
He's close to me, right? He has my phone number.
Whom are you talking to?
I was talking to the third dried yellow corvina.
We can't talk about personal things...
because it might reveal their identities.
Fruit Basket is making you more and more curious.
Now, she's going to let you hear her real voice.
Fruit Basket,
please let us hear you imitating Shim Soo Bong's voice.
Whenever it rains, I am reminded of that person
That was it.
She's being very careful.
- Is she who you think she is? - That was crucial.
- Was it? - Yes.
Now, let us hear you imitating Kim Wan Sun's voice.
Tonight, I am afraid of the darkness
- That was it. - That was a crucial hint.
Seong Ju, thank you for such an obvious hint.
- Was it helpful? - Thank you so much.
Was it crucial?
Yes, you peeled the fruit and put it in my mouth.
Was it too obvious?
- Yes, it was great. - So you're sure now.
- Yes, I'm very sure. - It's so...
Good. Now, I'll announce the result...
of the third match.
Between Fruit Basket, who has a lyrical voice,
and Dried Yellow Corvina Set, who has a clear voice,
which gift would the panelists like to receive?
Let's check out the result right now!
(She has a warm and sweet voice.)
(Fruit Basket's charming voice makes you get lost in memories.)
(His genuine voice moves our hearts.)
(Dried Yellow Corvina Set's voice is plain and addictive.)
Between the two masked singers with pleasant voices,
Fruit Basket and Dried Yellow Corvina Set,
who is the winner of the match?
The winner is...
(The winner is...)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Between two different charming masked singers,)
(whose voice will reach the queen on Chuseok?)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Fruit Basket is the winner.)
Fruit Basket is the winner.
(Fruit Basket is the best gift for Chuseok.)
Fruit!
(I can't believe Dried Yellow Corvina Set lost.)
Fruit Basket was chosen.
She beat Dried Yellow Corvina Set...
with a score of 74 to 25.
By a comfortable margin, Fruit Basket has become the winner.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Please give her a round of applause.
(Dried Yellow Corvina Set's identity will be soon unveiled.)
Fruit Basket moves on to Round Two.
In Round Two, I'll show you a better and more fun performance.
(Let's go.)
His voice is somewhat familiar.
Let's find out who he is...
through his solo performance.
Please give him a big hand!
(His voice sounds genuine.)
(His voice is familiar.)
(Is he Great Library, who is popular among those in the 20s?)
(Is he a comedian like Bong Sun said?)
(What is this melody?)
("Dear My Fool" by Park Myung Soo)
(His soft voice gently echoes through the studio.)
(I love it.)
(His pure voice makes us smile like a fool.)
(Dried Yellow Corvina Set sings with all his heart.)
(A fool in love)
That sounded so sincere.
Now, Dried Yellow Corvina Set, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face!
(Screaming)
He is...
It's him, right?
(He's the one I have in mind, right?)
He seems like someone popular.
He is a characterful comedian and a great actor,
Park Hwi Soon!
(It was Park Hwi Soon?)
What?
- Why are you there? - It was Hwi Soon! Goodness.
(Hwi Soon surprised everyone.)
I told you he'd be a comedian!
(Dumbfounded)
(Hwi Soon.)
(They never even imagined that it'd be him!)
(Putting aside his funny character,)
(Hwi Soon focuses on the song with a serious face.)
(He sings each note with all his heart.)
("Dear My Fool" by Park Hwi Soon, a pure confession of a foolish man)
(It touches all of our hearts.)
(You did great.)
(It was the best.)
Please say hello to our viewers.
I'm Park Hwi Soon, the comedian who makes you laugh.
All right.
(He debuted as a comedian in 2005.)
(He became popular right away...)
(with his unusual looks and funny characters.)
(He won the Best New Comedian Award at KBS as well.)
(He's an experienced comedian...)
(who doesn't spare himself to make people laugh.)
(He tried acting afterwards...)
(and became a funny scene stealer.)
(He's now a desired actor in the film industry.)
(He's also a singer who has released a solo album.)
(Then he recently became a content creator.)
(Park Hwi Soon is a comedian with many different charms.)
This is how badly bias could affect you.
- It was Kai. - Kai said,
"I know who he is."
"I'm just trying to protect him." Ever since then,
you've been believing everything Kai says.
This also shows how much Gu Ra has been looking down on me!
When I said that he seems like a comedian,
Gu Ra dismissed it and said it's nonsense!
The worst person in the world is someone who blames others.
Why are you blaming me?
I can never beat him in arguments!
Do you see me blaming Kai?
- It's my own mistake. - Right.
(A few minutes ago)
(Great Library, my foot.)
Hey!
(He blamed Kai right away.)
What really surprised me...
is that he's a comedian,
but he didn't try to be funny even once.
Is it your self-control, or did you not have good specialties?
- He had many things to show us. - Really?
He said he was really good at muk-jji-ppa, the game.
He and I were supposed to play it.
That's his specialty?
Gu Ra, play muk-jji-ppa with him.
Do you want to play it with Gu Ra?
We should make it more interesting.
The loser will get a finger flick.
Please. Beat Gu Ra, and flick him.
If Gu Ra wins, I will flick Hwi Soon on the forehead.
If Hwi Soon wins, Bong Sun will flick Gu Ra.
- She's really strong! - Fine.
All right. Ready?
- Rock, scissors, paper! - Rock, scissors, paper!
Gu Ra won.
Oh, no.
(Oh, no. Please.)
Rock!
(Can he defend himself?)
Rock!
It's Hwi Soon's turn to attack.
Hwi Soon can attack now.
- Let's go, Hwi Soon! - You seem very nervous, Gu Ra.
- Why would I be? - Paper!
Gosh, Gu Ra cast scissors. He defended himself.
Paper! Oh, come on!
(Anxious)
That was too late!
- No, it wasn't! - Come on!
It takes a second to hear you.
It takes a second to hear me from there?
- No way. - It takes a second.
- Seriously. - All right. Scissors and paper.
- All right. - It's Hwi Soon's turn.
Paper!
Rock!
(The game goes on for a while.)
- Yes! - He dodged it again!
- Gosh, this is nerve-racking. - All right.
This is fun.
You can't lose!
End it! End the game!
(It's time for you to give up.)
(Bring it on.)
(I'm ready to flick some forehead.)
Paper!
(Hwi Soon beats Gu Ra!)
(Finally!)
(Just like the quarterfinals of the 2004 World Cup,)
(it's another historic moment!)
(Let's celebrate!)
Paper!
(Dropping down to the floor)
(Everyone except Gu Ra is celebrating!)
- All right. - I'm good at this, right?
- You're really good at this game! - Yes!
The entire nation rooted for you.
All right, Bong Sun. Get ready to flick him.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
- Bong Sun. - I don't feel any pain.
I'm serious. Jo Hye Ryun once pulled my hair, but I didn't feel anything.
- Maybe Bong Sun should do that too. - Do you want to?
- Should I? - Sure. You can pull my hair.
I don't feel any kind of pain.
- What if your hair gets pulled out? - It's okay.
- Oh, my. - Pull it out if you can.
That sounds too harsh. Are you sure?
Absolutely. This is what a proper specialty is.
- You won't feel any pain? - Try it.
- You're insensitive to pain? - He doesn't feel any pain.
- Here she goes. - All right.
(Excuse me for a moment.)
(Suddenly, the memories...)
(of being oppressed and ignored by Gu Ra...)
(flash before Bong Sun's eyes.)
(I've been waiting for this day!)
You're grabbing my hair really tightly.
(Pulling up hard)
You really are.
- You're grabbing it really tightly. - Oh, my goodness.
- Gosh. - You really are.
(Gu Ra really doesn't seem to be in pain.)
- Gosh. - You really are.
- Someone else can try it too. - You pulled it out!
- You pulled it out? - She pulled it out!
She pulled out his sideburns!
- She really did. - I'm sorry,
but I pulled out a bunch of it.
Seriously?
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to take it this far.
No, it's okay. I don't feel any pain.
She pulled out a lot of my hair.
All right. By the way, Hwi Soon.
Apparently, you wanted to come to our show on Chuseok?
I actually got the call in spring,
but my father was hoping to see me on TV on Chuseok.
That's why I postponed it a little.
I got some news just now.
This episode will be aired a week before Chuseok.
You won't appear on the show on the day of Chuseok because...
you failed to move on to Round Two.
Things are really not going well for me.
- I thought they'd go well by now. - I'm sorry.
- How could I mess this up? - Well, this is...
I waited six months for this.
I'm sorry. It's so unfortunate.
Please explain it well to your father.
- Okay, I will. - All right.
Today, he showed us his great sensibility...
hidden behind his funny character. It was Park Hwi Soon.
Please give him a round of applause!
(We hope to see you more often.)
My father loves this show,
and it was his 80th birthday a few days ago.
So I wanted to make him happy...
by appearing on this show on Chuseok,
but I lost in Round One.
Dad, this episode won't be aired on Chuseok.
It will be aired a week before Chuseok.
Please watch it.
Everyone, it's still early, but I wish you a happy Chuseok.
The best Chuseok gift is always Dried Yellow Corvina Set!
I Prepared Every Kind of Fruit for You,
Fruit Basket defeated Park Hwi Soon...
and moved on to Round Two.
The last match of Round One.
She's ready to sing now
I'm the Hottest These Days,
Tropicbird!
(I'm the Hottest These Days, Tropicbird)
My fantastic performance will begin soon.
(My fantastic performance will begin soon.)
(She's wearing the fanciest mask ever.)
She's either a great singer...
She seems like a good singer.
- or a great actress. - A great actress?
Let's meet her opponent.
She will turn into the Queen of Mask Singer soon.
Vote for Me, or I'll Change My Color,
Chameleon!
(Vote for Me, or I'll Change My Color, Chameleon)
Enjoy my ever-changing performance!
(She's wearing a colorful mask as well.)
They're both female singers.
Both of them must sing well.
This is going to be the highlight for today.
(The audience is excited to watch these fashionable masked singers.)
(The direction of the final ticket to Round Two is still in mystery.)
(Will it be the soaring voice of Tropicbird?)
(Or will it be the ever-changing expression of Chameleon?)
See? They're good at singing for certain.
The prelude is different already.
(They can sense the professional aura already.)
("Slow" by 2NE1)
(Chameleon's voice is clear.)
(She shows her color in a calm mood.)
(Her unique voice catches the audience's ears.)
(Her voice is full of lingering feelings.)
(It hurts.)
(The melody changes into different colors according to her emotions.)
(I love it.)
(They can feel the relaxed mood in how Tropicbird sings.)
(Her singing techniques are delicate like feathers.)
(It's sorrowful.)
(The heavy sentiments are portrayed within her clear voice.)
(She frankly expresses the pain.)
(She sings her broken heart in a pastel tone.)
(She's good at controlling the dynamics too.)
(They can't help but keep drawing their ears to this clear voice.)
(Tropicbird's melody flies to the audience's hearts.)
(Their voices naturally harmonize into one.)
(Amazed)
(My heart breaks)
(Their performance leaves lingering feelings.)
(Somebody, call an ambulance.)
(Emotional)
How cool.
(They didn't disappoint the audience.)
Oh, my goodness.
The last match of Round One has ended.
Young Seok is the representative emotional panelist of this show.
Tropicbird's nasal voice...
sounded very charming.
She sang in such a sensual way.
Her body wasn't moving an inch,
but her voice itself approached me sensually.
She is a great singer.
But here's what I think about their performance.
Chameleon shouldn't be taken out either.
It felt like a diamond mine which just started to be developed.
Her voice didn't have...
any exaggeration. She sang in a way...
that was so good to hear.
(Thankful)
While listening to Tropicbird's singing,
I was reminded of a word.
"Lilting".
- "Lilting"? - Yes.
It means, "The voice or figure is pretty..."
"as if it melts people's hearts."
"It's charming, soft, and thin."
Her voice is something that can express a beauty...
in a lilting way.
But Chameleon's voice...
doesn't fall behind at all.
If singers perform with Tropicbird,
a lot of them might not look as good...
- I see. - because of her splendid voice.
But Chameleon looked just as good,
and that means she has much more potentials...
and a great singing ability.
To conclude your opinions, Tropicbird is a senior...
while Chameleon is a junior.
What do you think, Gu Ra?
You must know who she is.
Her voice is like a textbook.
It's obvious.
- Did all the idol panelists... - Sure.
recognize her voice?
A lot of idol singers study about her voice.
Is it like a textbook?
Her voice is like a textbook to them.
In order to be the match of this exemplary voice,
her opponent has to have amazing singing skills too.
So I think Chameleon is...
U Ji of BESTie.
U Ji of BESTie?
She's a great singer.
Against this big senior,
only singers like U Ji can make a match.
- I see. - That's what I think...
about their identities.
Don't you think it's her?
(Should I say yes?)
All right, good.
Let's have some time to check their specialties.
Tropicbird will show off her voice imitation first.
Let us hear your voice imitation of Hong Jin Young.
You!
"You!" All right.
Next is Choi Hwa Jung.
"Hello, I'm Choi Hwa Jung."
All right. Her imitation is short.
Lastly, Lee Young Ae.
Gu Ra, mind your own business.
All right. She prepared short lines for her imitation.
- Textbook-like voice. - Her specialty is like a textbook.
- I see. - Right.
- Like a textbook. - "You!"
This time, it's Chameleon's turn.
She says she can dance "Energetic" by Wanna One...
at twice the speed of the original.
Let's see if she is indeed U Ji of BESTie.
Music, please.
It's being played at twice the speed of the original.
(The music starts at twice the speed of the original.)
(Powerful)
(She's no longer the emotional singer who sang "Slow" just now.)
(The video of their actual practice of dancing it at twice the speed)
How powerful.
(It's sharp like a knife.)
(Fascinated)
(Energetic)
(It's hard to believe she's dancing it at twice the speed.)
All right.
(Her specialty made all of our jaws drop.)
I want to watch it again.
- Gosh. - Did you hear Ho Young scream?
Were you surprised, Ho Young?
- It was so cool. - I know.
I've been in love with her since a while ago...
because of her colorful fashion to begin with.
- She's your style. - It's driving me crazy.
- She's good even at dancing too. - I know.
Right.
- She has got to be an idol singer. - Is that right?
- Is it undoubtful? - It's actually not possible...
to do the dance at twice the speed in those heels.
It's hard for me to dance my song at twice the speed too.
She seems to be around your age. Can't you think of anyone?
- You know who it is? - Actually,
I think I know who she is.
- Really? - Yes.
She once released a song around the same time we did.
- Really? - So...
- her voice sounds familiar. - Keep it a secret.
- You know who she is? - Keep it to yourself.
It's not U Ji?
It's not her.
- It's not her? - It's not her.
Okay. Chameleon will now show another one of her specialties.
She is said to have an absolute sense of pitch.
We're going to test her right away in this studio now.
With this accordion...
- It's not how it's called? - Melodion.
- What? - Melodion.
- Melodion? - Seong Ju.
This is what an accordion is.
(I've got you.)
(Flustered)
Has your son ever taken an accordion...
as his school material?
I don't understand.
I thought all musical instruments like this were accordions.
We will test her sense of pitch with this melodion.
For now, among do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, and do,
let's play just one note at a time.
Tropicbird, please press the keyboard.
(Mi)
What is it?
- Mi. - Is it really mi?
That is right.
One more.
(La)
- La. - La.
La is right.
I don't think playing just one note is not meaningful anymore.
Now, play two notes at a time.
Please play two notes at the same time.
(Fa and fa sharp)
- Goodness. - Sol and fa?
- What? - Sol and fa?
Do you want to listen to it one more time?
(Fa and fa sharp)
- It sounds like a car horn. - Mi and sol.
- Pardon? - Mi and sol.
Mi and sol?
They are not mi and sol.
They're not.
Aren't they too close to each other?
- Fa and sol. - Pardon?
- Fa and sol. - Fa and sol?
- No? - Just press one.
- Mi and sol. - What was it again?
- Mi and sol. - Hold on, please.
Please calm down.
- Gosh. - Please.
Tropicbird, you're keeping her in check too much.
Please press two notes that are quite far from each other.
There you go.
She will play two notes.
Pay attention, Chameleon. Please play two notes.
(Re and sol)
Do and sol.
- Sorry? - Do and sol?
Do and sol?
Make it clear.
- Do and sol. - Do and sol.
Well, isn't it?
Hold on.
When she played two notes together, you got everything wrong.
(Seong Ju is upset.)
- Seong Ju. - Yes?
- Why do we have to do this? - I got it.
(He wants to know why they have to do this.)
So that I won't have regrets, let me try it one last time.
It's the last time. If you get it wrong, it's over, okay?
- Okay. Not to have regrets. - Not to have regrets.
So that she won't have regrets. Please press them.
(Re and sol)
(Pondering)
I think you'll know what they are.
- What are they? - Re and sol.
- Pardon? - Re and sol.
- What and sol? - Re and sol.
Wait. Say the first one clearly.
- Re. - Say the first one clearly.
- Re and sol? - Is it re and sol?
Oh, they were re and sol. She got it right.
There you go.
Do it confidently.
(It looks as if she got admitted to Berklee College of Music.)
Now, let's move on.
Tropicbird says she can play the taepyeongso very well...
without a taepyeongso.
(Amazed)
- It's a transparent taepyeongso. - That sounds interesting.
Let's listen to her play the taepyeongso.
Tropicbird, please start.
(It doesn't sound like her own voice at all.)
(This song is...)
(The friend)
(You'll be happy to meet)
(Marveling)
(MBC, Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation)
(She played the jingle of MBC.)
(She perfectly imitated the sound of a taepyeongso.)
Ho Young, can you make the taepyeongso sound too?
- I think he can. - I think he can too.
Ho Young, please start the taepyeongso sound.
(Imitating it...)
(with nasal sounds)
He's good.
Omit the nasal sounds.
Without the nasal sounds.
(He omits the nasal sounds.)
(He imitates the taepyeongso sound without nasal sounds.)
He did a very good job.
- He can do it too. - Like intangible cultural asset.
(You are awesome.)
Can you do it too, Kai?
- Can you, Kai? - Can you do it, Kai?
(Screaming)
(Kai sounds like an idiot.)
He sounded dumb.
- Kai is worse than I thought. - There is something he can't do.
Let's find out the result now.
Who will be the last winner...
of the duet matches of Round One?
Tropicbird flies freely over the sea of emotions.
And Chameleon is the ever-changing master of transformation.
Between the two masked singers,
who will be the last winner of the duet matches?
I will announce it now.
(Her voice color and technique captivated people's ears.)
(Tropicbird showed a performance like a textbook.)
(Chameleon is contending against her.)
(With her husky and sorrowful voice,)
(she sang the heartbreaking song about parting.)
Between Tropicbird and Chameleon,
who will be the last one to be lucky enough...
to perform in Round Two once again?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Who will be the winner?)
(Goodness, I'm nervous. Who will it be? I hope the both win.)
(Will it be Tropicbird with various colors?)
(Or will it be Chameleon with ever-changing charms?)
Who is the winner of this match?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
who will go against Fruit Basket? - The winner is... - The winner is...
who will go against Fruit Basket?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(I'm the Hottest These Days, Tropicbird wins.)
Tropicbird won.
(Fly up, Tropicbird.)
(They applaud with joy or sadness.)
What should you do, Chameleon?
(You are cool, Tropicbird.)
Tropicbird defeated Chameleon...
with a score of 75 to 24.
The margin is bigger than I thought.
She got 75 votes...
and moves on to Round Two.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Please give her a big hand.
Tropicbird will perform again...
a moment later.
"I'm the Hottest These Days, Tropicbird".
I'll see you in Round Two. Thank you.
(See you later.)
It's a little bit sad.
We were looking forward to seeing...
what color Chameleon would show us in Round Two.
We will reveal her identity with a solo performance.
Please give her a big hand.
(Her face will be revealed.)
(A precious voice like a gemstone)
(She has great potential and skills.)
(Is she U Ji of BESTie?)
(She can dance to Wanna One's song at twice the speed.)
(The idol singers are sure she is an idol singer.)
(JooE thinks she knows who she is. Who is she?)
("Piano Man" by MAMAMOO)
(Amazed)
(The intro is already so bluesy.)
(Marveling)
Yes?
(She calls a piano man by whispering.)
(They're happy.)
Gosh, she is so good.
(Singing along)
(Enjoying the music)
(This way?)
Now,
Chameleon, take off your mask and show your face.
(Screaming)
(This is awesome.)
She is...
Who is it?
She has blond hair.
(A girl with blond hair?)
Take off your mask and show your face.
She is...
the lead vocalist of gugudan, the girl group...
with unique charms.
(Was Chameleon Na Young?)
Oh, Nayoung of gugudan.
(Gosh, it was Nayoung. No wonder she sang good.)
(Nice to see you, Nayoung.)
(It really wasn't U Ji.)
(Nayoung reveals her true colors.)
(Her singing skill is jaw-dropping.)
(She is amazing.)
(Wow, she can even rap.)
(Nayoung is into the rhythm indeed.)
(Her dancing, singing, and rapping skills are all great.)
Wow, she is good.
(Gosh, she is a good singer.)
(Yes!)
(It gets more and more amusing.)
(Singing passionately with a powerful voice,)
(Nayoung captivates the audience.)
(Nayoung's "Piano Man" made us discover her charming husky voice.)
(You are the best!)
(How can you be so good?)
- Na Young! - She's amazing!
She's too good.
It's too bad.
She's too talented to be eliminated.
Will you say hi to the viewers?
Standby, cue.
Hello. I am Nayoung of gugudan.
(She received attention on "Produce 101"...)
(for her beauty and singing skills.)
(She made an official debut as a member of gugudan.)
(She's got the elegant face, model body,)
(and a surprisingly husky voice.)
(She's a charming idol with perfect stage manners.)
(In 2017, they won the Rising Star Award at Asia Artist Awards.)
(She's a cute girl with lovely dimples.)
(She's capturing fans' hearts once again...)
(as a member of gugudan SEMINA.)
(She's the lovely lead vocalist.)
(Nayoung makes everyone smile.)
JooE, is she the one you were thinking of?
I see.
How did you know it was her?
I watched her performance and heard her singing.
I always used to say...
- that she's an amazing singer. - Thank you.
- That's why I knew it was her. - Right.
- Thank you. - Everyone is feeling bad for her.
Did you feel that after hearing her sing alone?
- Yes. - She should've sung this song.
She showed everything she had with this song.
- Thank you. - She did.
We kept digging, and we found a diamond.
She not only did she sing well, but she danced well too.
- It was explosive. - Thank you.
When she came on a show I was presenting,
she was really shy.
She said she was stressed out and couldn't even talk on stage.
- I was really surprised today. - Thank you.
- Right. - She's really amazing.
- I know. - Thank you.
She's very shy.
But I heard you were very eager to perform...
on King of Mask Singer.
It was my first time to ask my agency to book me a gig.
I told them that I was very eager to go on King of Mask Singer.
I had no confidence in singing at first.
But after joining gugudan SEMINA,
I became a little bit more confident.
And because I got to sing one song all by myself,
this is more special to me.
- Right. Right. - We usually see girl groups...
singing only pretty and cheerful songs.
But when she was singing "Piano Man",
she sounded like a musical actress.
It was like a soliloquy.
- A soliloquy. - It was like a soliloquy.
- Thank you. - The stage seemed so full,
and her facial expressions and movements were so relaxed...
that I couldn't believe...
that she was a shy person.
- It was really amazing. - Right.
I think the red color suits you well.
- Thank you. - It's Ho Young's favorite color.
I love the color combination.
Red and green suit you really well.
When she took off the mask and turned back,
even her hair piled up on that and made her...
look like the lead actress of the musical, "Legally Blonde".
- Thank you. - Among all the performances...
I've seen recently,
this performance ranks in Top Three.
- Top Three? - That's what I thought.
While I watched her performance, I thought of hashtags like...
"style", "concept",
"stylish", "classy", and "sense".
- Are those the hashtags? - They are.
I couldn't stop thinking about that.
I wanted to take a video and post it online.
On my social media.
- I couldn't believe it. - That's how charming she was.
She was very charming.
She was really great today.
Thank you.
She mustered up her courage to be on this stage.
And she performed amazingly with her most unique voice.
Please give Nayoung a round of applause.
Thank you.
(Let us hear your charming voice more often in the future.)
I am so nervous! My goodness.
I am so nervous.
It's over!
I won't be able to sleep tonight.
I won't be able to forget about today.
Before I go to bed, I will ruminate about this.
"What did I hear today?"
I heard compliments from experienced musicians.
I never thought I'd be singing alone in front of this many people.
I called my dad today and asked,
"What do you think about me going on King of Mask Singer?"
And he said, "That would bring an honor to our family."
I still didn't tell him. I was afraid of making a mistake.
If I tell them that I performed on King of Mask Singer,
my parents will be thrilled and ask when it will be aired.
I think I am going to cry.
I am on King of Mask Singer, Mom and Dad.
I will work harder from now on,
and I will become a proud daughter who continues to grow.
I love you!
Next week.
(It's a game you can't lose.)
(It won't be an easy match.)
(I am devastated.)
(The panelists face a crisis.)
(It's total chaos.)
(They will put on thrilling stunt actions like a circus.)
(You won't be able to take your eyes off for one moment.)
Look forward to it.
