The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
To stop Ken the Eagle from soaring high,
another super contestant flew in...
with golden luck.
Happy New Year, Golden Pig.
The special performance begins now.
(Happy New Year, everyone.)
(Oink, oink)
(Welcome.)
Golden Pig?
He's not the masked king, is he?
What's going on?
Is this a special?
He wasn't here last week.
(Hello.)
Hello.
He's so happy.
He's happy.
(A mysterious masked singer suddenly appeared.)
(Everyone is dumbfounded.)
(What kind of a performance will Golden Pig put on?)
("Creep" by Radiohead)
(He's going to sing Radiohead's masterpiece.)
- My goodness. - He's a foreigner.
(It's incredible.)
He's amazing.
(Your skin makes me cry)
(You float like a feather)
(In a beautiful world)
(You're so very special)
(I wish I was special)
(But I'm a creep)
(I'm a weirdo)
(What am I doing here)
(I don't belong here)
(Golden Pig dances to the rhythm.)
(Here goes a body roll.)
(Who in the world is he?)
(He's back to singing as if he never danced.)
(We don't know who he is, but it's a gripping performance.)
(You're so very special)
(His performance is special just like the lyrics say.)
(He has amazing stage manners.)
(She's running away from me again.)
(The lingering emotions keep the studio silent for a while.)
(Whatever makes you happy)
(Whatever you want)
(Whatever that is, you're very special.)
(He seems to be used to being on a stage.)
He's so cool.
(Golden Pig plays with the mood.)
(What am I doing here?)
(I don't belong here)
This is amazing.
(Golden Pig performed "Creep" with his perfect control over the stage.)
(Bravo)
Who is he?
Who could he be?
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Today, we started the show with a special masked singer...
who has challenged us to celebrate the new year.
The owner of this extraordinary voice is...
Happy New Year, Golden Pig.
Young Seok, he just sang a classic song.
When he first made an appearance, I thought Song Hae came...
to celebrate the new year.
- I thought the same. - Oh, my.
National!
(Greetings from Song Hae, the man of Sunday.)
- Song Hae? - Yes.
Watching him sing, it doesn't seem like he's a professional singer.
But the way he interpreted the song was perfectly mature.
I think he's a perfect artist.
He's an artist.
What do you think, Hyun Chul?
First of all, he's wearing a golden pig mask.
If he doesn't have a good understanding of Korean culture,
he probably didn't know this year is the Year of the Golden Pig.
- That's true. - I wonder what he said...
when he got the mask.
- I see. - So that's what you said.
(He's so cute.)
I see.
(Did he just do this?)
It's Heo Kyeong Hwan.
He's saying he does have a good understanding of Korean culture.
During his "Creep" performance,
when the electric guitar played,
he moved his foot like this.
(It's the famous leg lifting dance.)
(He's the dancing king.)
(He's so talented.)
His movements were very humorous,
which made me think he's either a comedian or a comedic actor.
But his singing was too good to be a comedian.
Exactly.
I got the feeling that he has a lot of experience on stage.
(Does Golden Pig has a lot of experience on stage?)
I smell Hollywood.
- You smell Hollywood? - He gives off...
- an LA vibe. - LA?
When I was young, my favorite movie was "School of Rock",
which Jack Black starred in.
Jack Black is an actor who has a very rock and roll voice.
His voice sounds like this.
As he was singing with a throaty voice,
I thought he might be Jack Black.
So you think he can be Jack Black.
When Ryan Reynolds came here as soon as he arrived in Korea...
He's wearing exactly what he was wearing when he entered...
(He remembered what he was wearing at the airport.)
(Gu Ra immediately guessed his identity correctly.)
I just researched a few celebrities including Jack Black,
and he has no plans to visit Korea any time soon.
- He doesn't? - I'm sorry I'm saying this, but...
(What is he trying to say?)
He's probably not as famous as we think.
- He's not as famous as we think? - No, he's not.
When he takes off his mask, we might be like, "Who is that?"
He's very upset at your words.
There are usually some reporters hanging out in the airport.
Considering that there wasn't a single picture of him,
I don't think he's that famous.
- I see. - You must be nervous now.
Please name one of his close friends.
Then we'll make guesses from there.
For example, Gu Ra's close friend is Yeom Kyung Hwan.
Exactly.
(Laughing)
His best friend?
(He can't laugh with them.)
(Excuse me.)
We're very close.
(It makes us cringe to watch their deep friendship.)
(Their friendship is indeed deep.)
He has a great sense of humor.
(Laughing)
What movies are coming out this year?
- I'm looking it up now. - This year.
Please don't yell at me.
(Don't yell at me, Gu Ra.)
In January 2019...
(Gulping)
"Hangman"! Al Pacino!
Oh, dear.
- Al Pacino! - Come on. Al Pacino?
- Al Pacino? - He's over 70.
Now, I'm going to reveal Golden Pig's identity.
- "Cats"! - "Cats"?
- "The Lion King". - "The Lion King".
It's too late.
Now, Golden Pig, please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(Curious)
He's very humorous.
(Should I show you my face or not?)
(Shocked)
(Oh, my!)
He is...
Is he Jack Black?
Who is he? He is...
He is...
Who are you?
Please reveal your face.
He has come a long way.
He is...
a Hollywood comedy movie mogul...
and Korean-American actor who used to be a doctor, Ken Jeong!
(What? Ken Jeong?)
Ken Jeong!
(Surprised)
Ken Jeong!
- Mr. Jeong. - I've watched his sitcom.
- It was Mr. Jeong. - Please say hi to the viewers.
My name is Kendrick Jeong. Ken Jeong.
My Korean name is Jeong Kang Joh.
(He's an irreplaceable Hollywood character actor.)
(He has a strong onscreen presence...)
(and entertains the viewers.)
(In "The Hangover", he drew attention with his comedic acting.)
(He received a lot of offers in Hollywood...)
(and has become a scene stealer in many movies.)
(He entertains people with stand-up comedy as well.)
(He is actually an elite who used to be a doctor.)
(He even produced a sitcom based on his own story.)
(He shows his talents everywhere.)
(He even collaborated with big stars like BTS and Steve Aoki.)
(And on the American version of this show, "The Masked Singer"...)
("The Masked Singer" premiered with the highest rating in 7 years.)
(He's the main panelist of the show with a strong presence.)
(Ken Jeong, a world class comedic actor)
He's playing the role of Gu Ra on the American version of this show,
"The Masked Singer".
Is he?
- He's the center of the panelists. - Are you?
(The lead panelist of Korea, the lead panelist of the US)
(I see.)
I am you.
"I am you."
Before their show premieres,
he was watching our show.
We suggested he appear on our show,
and he readily accepted our offer and flew here.
Ken Jeong.
As he arrived in Korea,
the very first question he asked our staff was...
"How many episodes of this show are aired?"
That was the question.
We told him we aired about 190 episodes,
and he was very surprised.
Oh, yes. I was so surprised.
In America, we have only done 10 episodes.
- But 190? Oh, dear. - "Oh, dear."
That must be so hard.
Our show in America...
We have massive respect for this show in Korea.
We hope we can be almost as good as Korea.
I see.
I heard you decided to appear the show...
mainly because of your mother.
King of Mask Singer is my mother's favorite show.
And she told me to go on the show...
in the US.
He's the only person...
who has appeared in both American and Korean versions of this show.
He's the first celebrity.
- Right. - Yes.
This is very meaningful in that sense.
Yes. I'm very honored to be on both shows.
Who's the host of the American version?
The show host is Nick Cannon.
Nick Cannon.
- Isn't he Mariah Carey's husband? - He's Mariah Carey's husband.
Well, ex-husband.
- Ex-husband. - Right.
- Right. - He used to be.
- Nick Cannon. - I see.
Gu Ra, why don't you give him a piece of advice as a panelist?
It'd be too arrogant of me...
- to give him advice. - As a long-time panelist.
Well, if we're to talk about being a panelist of this show,
I stop Seong Ju from saying useless things.
When Nick delays the shooting...
and talks gibberish, do stop him.
- That'd be all. - I see.
He's saying it's important...
- work with the host. - It's important to keep it tense.
It's important. Oh, all right.
- I get it. - He is humorous indeed.
- He's got a sense of humor. - Okay.
- He's taking it into an action. - Good.
- Okay. - He's the best.
(Laughing)
Coming across the Pacific Ocean,
he showed off his incredible singing ability.
He's Ken Jeong from the American version of King of Mask Singer.
- Please give him a big hand. - Go for it.
(Goodbye)
I've never been a singer on stage before.
So that was my first time.
I have a deep respect for the contestants...
who really try to prove themselves on the stage.
I got to feel that emotion.
My wife and children are very happy...
that I performed as Golden Pig...
because my children were born in the Year of the Pig.
So it gives extra meaning.
It gives extra joy...
that I get to perform as a pig.
I just wanted to say this to my mom.
Mom, I wanted to do this to please you.
You told me to do the show in America.
And now you told me to do the show in Korea. I did the show.
This is for you. I dedicate my performance to you.
I love you, Mom!
Happy New Year, Golden Pig was me, Ken Jeong.
Happy New Year.
It's the first match of Round Two.
This masked singer beat Austin Kang.
"Today's playlist is perfect."
I Chose This Song,
Legolas.
(I Chose This Song, Legolas)
(With his performance, he'll hit the bull's-eye...)
(as well as the audience's hearts.)
He looks cool.
His falsetto was beautiful.
(Will he become a sole marksman...)
(and hit the audience's hearts once again?)
(To stop his opponent from flying high)
(Try to stop us too if you can.)
(What arrow did he prepare to shoot this time?)
(A beautiful, sentimental prelude)
What a beautiful prelude.
(What song is this?)
("SOFA" by Crush)
- It's "SOFA". - "SOFA".
("SOFA" by Crush)
(His voice sounds calm and serene.)
(It's nice.)
(His solitary, but mellow voice...)
(enchants the audience.)
(It gets more and more ardent.)
(His beautiful voice is deeply expressive.)
(A desperate wait...)
(for someone whom he longs for)
(Oh, yes.)
His voice is sexy.
(His addictive voice...)
(is unescapable no matter how much they try.)
(Move, this is my sofa.)
(His sorrowful voice touches the audience's hearts.)
(They become emotional just by listening to the song.)
(Who is he?)
(His improvisation is full of longing heart.)
(Legolas has hit solitude and longing by singing "SOFA".)
(They can't easily get over the lingering emotions.)
That was good.
It touched deep in my heart.
Against him...
is the masked singer who beat HerCheck of Super Kidd.
"I just have to fly high now."
Am I Flying,
Sky Lantern.
(Am I Flying, Sky Lantern)
(Make a New Year's wish so that Sky Lantern wins the match.)
(Confident and proud)
(It's good to see you again.)
I'm so curious.
I'm most curious about his identity.
I have no idea who he is at all.
It's our tough guy with a husky voice.
(Round Two is more excited because his identity is a mystery.)
(The panelists focus solely on Sky Lantern.)
(Will he beat his mellow opponent...)
(and take a step closer to the throne?)
(How will he embroider the stage?)
("Don't Say Goodbye" by Davichi)
(Is it Davichi's song?)
It's Davichi.
(It's "Don't Say Goodbye", right?)
(But their song requires a lot of high notes.)
- This is unexpected. - He unexpectedly chose a cute song.
(Who is he?)
(He sings low notes in a steady manner...)
(with his sweet, husky voice.)
Okay!
(Crying)
(A powerful voice)
(and a straightforward singing style)
(Sky Lantern's voice fills up the stage.)
(Way to go, Sky Lantern.)
(House Band)
(I love you)
(Oh, my.)
(From a whispery falsetto...)
(to a roaring chest voice,)
(he freely controls his voice and dynamics.)
(Amazed)
(Even his improvisations were free in "Don't Say Goodbye".)
(That was incredible!)
(Cheering)
That was great.
They're both so great. What should I do?
Round Two, Semi-finals. The first match is now over.
What do you think their charms are?
Young Seok?
Sky Lantern's voice sounded like...
that of someone who has a lot of experience in singing.
His singing style tells me...
that he likes rhythm and blues very much.
The rhythm and blues in the early period,
the singing style in rhythm and blues that we call...
the cowboy singing,
and the trendy rhythm and blues. I think he's someone...
who has studied and practiced all the varieties in that genre.
With that kind of experience,
he gave such a steady performance.
It was an enchanting performance that showed his charms...
which you can't escape once you fall for it.
To sing the song that Legolas sang,
you have to be able to switch right away...
from falsetto to chest voice and vice versa.
He has such a charming falsetto voice.
I believe that he would have earned more votes...
if he had chosen a song where he can show off his falsetto voice more.
It's a shame.
From that,
I think he could be a member of a group.
If he had many opportunities...
to perform on stage by himself,
he would have chosen a better song.
It's too bad that he didn't choose...
the best song for himself.
There are three artists whose songs...
trainee idol singers love to sing.
The first one is Crush,
the second one is Zion.T,
and the third is BigBang.
The song that Legolas chose is something that trainees...
- often sing. - I see.
I think he is a junior idol singer who has less than...
three years of experience.
- Less than three years? - Yes, since his debut.
He still looks very humble, with his hands...
put together like that.
- Humble? - When he walked in,
he politely bowed to the panelists...
and the audience.
That's what made me think that he'd be my junior.
Another thing that I've inferred is that...
he would be...
the handsome one in his group.
(The handsome one in the group)
The handsome one?
In his group? Okay.
- He just burst into laughter. - He's laughing.
The handsome one in the group.
He must be very good-looking...
He's flustered.
(Who is he?)
I think he'd be the handsome one in the group...
with a mellow voice like Jin Woo here.
You think he is the handsome member in his group.
When he takes off his mask,
he'll be someone as handsome as Jin Woo.
- As handsome as him? - Yes.
I dare say he'll be as handsome...
- as Jin Woo. - The handsome member of the group.
- Yes. - I see.
As for Sky Lantern,
- Yes? - I have someone in mind.
You do?
I think he's an actor.
(An actor?)
An actor...
who also likes to sing and dance.
I say he's Dong Hyun Bae.
- Oh! - That's what I think.
- You might be right. - Taeyang's brother?
- Dong Hyun Bae. - Taeyang's older brother.
- Hyun Bae has had... - I respect that.
a big influence on Taeyang when it comes to African-American music...
- and Michael Jackson's music. - Dong Hyun Bae.
Actually,
Ilac suddenly came to my mind.
Ilac?
You haven't mentioned him in a while.
Gu Ra has mentioned him consistently.
It's not his beautiful voice from the past,
but he still had good techniques.
- I think he could be Ilac. - I see.
Now, let's check out their specialties...
in this round as well.
Let's start with Legolas.
He will cover a female idol singer's dance.
That will definitely give us some ideas.
It's a cover dance of a female idol singer.
It's "Siren" by SUNMI. Music, please!
(The music starts.)
(SUNMI's intense charisma...)
(and sexy mermaid dance is the highlight of this song.)
(His charisma is as intense as SUNMI's.)
(Understated dancing)
(I won't cry even if I lose!)
(Sexy and seductive)
He's dancing in a manly way...
to "Siren" by SUNMI.
(Is it the mermaid dance?)
(That's it?)
(It's a tantalizing end.)
That's it.
(What is that?)
Great job, Legolas.
Gook Ju, you're the expert. What do you think?
Male idol singers...
don't cover the dance in a girly way.
Legolas danced in a manly way,
so I think he's an idol singer.
Shouldn't we see Gook Ju dance to this song too?
Shall we?
(She covered this dance as well.)
We've got to see it.
Please dance together.
Wait, you can't talk to him.
- We should make some arrangements. - Right.
You're going to lie down right away?
- Right away? - Yes.
Okay, I got it.
They're experts of cover dances, and there are certain things...
- Of course. - that they need to discuss first.
Great. Let's do this one more time.
Music, please!
(What will Legolas and Gook Ju's collaboration to "Siren" be like?)
Legolas is dancing harder this time.
(Dancing perfectly in sync)
- Way to go, Gook Ju! - Legolas is dancing harder.
(Go, Legolas!)
(Right now,)
(I am SUNMI!)
That's it, Gook Ju.
(The experts of cover dance seem very serious.)
(Sky Lantern is dancing with them.)
(Flopping down)
(Are they going to do it now?)
(We're the Sirens around here.)
- That's great! - Yes!
(Charming)
(That's it!)
That's great, Gook Ju!
(A perfect ending with the highlight dance move)
- All right! - Great job, Gook Ju!
(Taking an ending pose alone)
- All right! - Great job, Gook Ju!
She forgot to do the ending pose.
If you had told me that you'd get up, I would've done the same.
You didn't tell me.
You said we would end it with the mermaid dance! You jerk.
Wait.
(This is not we agreed on earlier!)
- All right. - He shouldn't have done that.
He had his reasons.
Well done.
Let's give Gook Ju a big hand.
(That was great.)
Gook Ju got mad because he struck an ending pose alone.
It was their collaboration.
It was an exciting and fun performance.
This time, let's see Sky Lantern's specialty.
It says here that he has amazing endurance.
He will stretch out his arms forward,
squat down as if he's sitting on an invisible chair,
put a raw egg between his thighs, and stay like that.
(What?)
If you think you can do this...
better than him, you're welcome to give it a try.
- Go. - I'll try.
- Jin Woo. - Me too.
Bong Sun.
Jin Woo and Bong Sun.
Gosh, I didn't think Bong Sun would do it.
Please come here.
Stand here, please.
This is not easy.
Ready, set, go!
They all look very steady.
All of them are in a perfect squat position.
They must work out a lot.
- When Jin Woo was a student, - What a great pose!
- he often did that as a punishment. - His pose looks perfect.
- Good. - His knees are bent 90 degrees.
He's staying very still.
- Bong Sun is doing great too. - She's doing better than I thought.
- That's amazing. - Her pose looks great.
It's a neck-and-neck match.
Jin Woo is glancing at the others.
Sky Lantern isn't moving at all.
- Bong Sun is grimacing. - The egg.
The egg!
- His legs are shaking. - Hang in there!
Jin Woo's legs are shaking. Is the egg going to drop?
What about a turn?
All right. Please turn around now.
- That's good. - Rotate once.
That's good.
That's good. Jin Woo is struggling a bit.
(Screaming)
Everyone succeeded.
- Are we rotating again? - Rotate again.
Rotate again. Rotate again.
Jin Woo, you need to sit down more.
All right.
You can win!
All right.
You can win!
I can't do this!
Bong Sun is out. Jin Woo is still in. Are you okay?
Would it be okay if I swear?
- Jin Woo is rotating. - Keep going.
- You got this. - Keep rotating. Sit down more.
- Keep going. - You got this.
- Eggs! Eggs! - He has a cramp in his legs.
Come on.
- Put your legs together. - Keep rotating. Keep rotating.
- Eggs! Eggs! - He has a cramp in his legs.
- Come on. - Put your legs together.
Keep rotating.
No!
- He won! - Jin Woo won.
Jin Woo won.
(I am proud of you, Jin Woo.)
Give him a round of applause. Jin Woo won.
Jin Woo did it.
The panelists...
He has incredible legs.
He has a strong desire to win.
Now, I will announce the result...
of the first match of Round Two.
Who will be the first one to move on to Round Three?
I'll now reveal the winner of this match.
(Legolas's beautiful voice was full of sentimentality.)
(His sorrowful voice soaked the stage.)
(Sky Lantern gave a strong performance against him.)
(He commanded the stage with a sense of longing.)
Will it be Legolas or Sky Lantern?
Who will win this round...
and move on to Round Three?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Who stole the panelists' hearts?)
(Melodious Legolas or powerful Sky Lantern?)
(Who is it?)
Who was chosen by the audience?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is the winner?
(Soar into the sky, Sky Lantern.)
Sky Lantern won.
(Sky Lantern will move on to Round Three.)
My goodness.
(Legolas did a good job as well.)
Sky Lantern beat Legolas...
with a final score of 67 to 32...
and moved on to Round Three.
Please return to your waiting room. Give him a big hand.
(Legolas' identity will be revealed.)
Sky Lantern moves on to Round Three.
I will fly to the throne.
Now, it's time to say goodbye to Legolas.
Please move to the back.
(Who could be Legolas?)
Legolas, please take off your mask and reveal your identity.
(Is he a handsome singer with a charming falsetto?)
(Is he between his late 20s and mid 30s?)
(Who could he be?)
(Screaming)
He is...
My goodness.
That startled me.
(The reaction is extraordinary.)
(Who is he?)
Reveal your identity.
He is...
the leader of Wanna One, Yoon Ji Sung.
(Legolas was Yoon Ji Sung!)
(Is that Ji Sung?)
He is the leader.
Wanna One.
(Their jaws drop.)
(Everyone in the audience is excited.)
Please say hello to the viewers.
All I want to do! Wanna One!
Hi, I am Yoon Ji Sung of Wanna One. It's nice to meet you.
(He showed off his boyish charms in "Produce 101"...)
(and became a member of the debuting group.)
(Then he debuted as Wanna One, the national idol group.)
(He stole women's hearts with his voice and charisma.)
(The group swept the Newcomer Awards...)
(and Grand Awards at various award ceremonies.)
(He showed off his cute charms in commercials.)
(He is the creator of Ji Sung Claps.)
(With his funny character,)
(he made his presence known in various shows.)
(A singer with charms like a rainbow, Yoon Ji Sung)
You sang with a mask over your face.
Wasn't it hard? How did it feel?
I was so nervous...
that my hands shook.
- Were you very nervous? - Yes.
I never had a long part. My parts are usually five seconds long.
I never sang an entire song.
I was with the members ever since I debuted,
so I was very anxious and nervous.
I have a habit of getting nervous,
but I was especially nervous. My hands shook.
Among the members of Wanna One,
you are the fifth one to visit King of Mask Singer.
Min Hyun, Jae Hwan,
Sung Woon, and Dae Hwi.
Did those members give you good ideas?
They gave me a lot of good ideas.
Today, I danced...
to "Siren" with Gook Ju.
Dae Hwi taught me the dance.
He keeps calling and texting.
- "Are you doing well?" - Yes. I guess he is curious.
Wanna One will disband soon.
- Yes. - Tell us how that makes you feel.
The group has worked for a year and six months.
Many things happened,
and we advanced as fast as we could.
Thank you so much...
for giving Wanna One the touching experiences...
we wouldn't have had without debuting.
Every member of Wanna One was handpicked.
I hope you will remember Wanna One for years to come.
(We will always remember you.)
Wanna One will disband,
but Ji Sung will face new beginning and challenge.
He will need people's support.
It didn't look that way at all,
but the fact you were nervous makes you more human.
(Smiling)
You were nervous...
because you wanted to do well.
That kind of positive greed...
gives you energy to do well.
I can already see that...
he will grow as an artist if he improves his good voice.
Thank you for giving us good performances.
Thank you.
Ji Sung will move on from Wanna One...
and face a new beginning.
Give him a round of applause.
Thank you.
(We root for Yoon Ji Sung's bright future in 2019.)
(We hope to hear your voice more often.)
Before I debuted, someone told me I have an annoying voice.
I didn't love my voice.
However, today, senior artists told me that...
my voice is beautiful,
and I can sing well.
I thought to myself, "Do I have these charms?"
I think it helped me love myself more.
I Chose This Song,
Legolas was me,
Yoon Ji Sung.
Happy New Year.
I hope the year will be filled with happiness.
Thank you.
In the first match of Round Two,
Sky Lantern beat Yoon Ji Sung and moved on to Round Three.
This is the second match of Round Two.
A masked singer who beat Ryu Su Jeong of Lovelyz...
will be annoyed if he doesn't get picked.
One Rice Sack is Missing,
Good Brothers.
(One Rice Sack is Missing, Good Brothers)
(I am here to deliver a song.)
(Let's enjoy it together.)
(Thank you.)
I am the most excited about him.
Me, too.
I can't wait for his performance.
(He stands on the stage alone with everyone's expectations.)
(With what kind of a voice...)
(will he captivate the panelists...)
(and take a step closer to the throne?)
(Good Brothers' second performance will begin.)
("The Sea in My Old Drawer" by Panic)
(His voice is melodious and deep.)
(It has a stronger resonance.)
He is the best.
(He is good.)
(In awe)
(When he delivers the lyrics,)
(the audience's hearts become heavy with emotions.)
(It's time. Shout out loud!)
He's amazing.
(He's so good.)
He sounds just like Lee Juck.
Right.
(Who on earth is he?)
(Where did he go?)
(Good Brothers' "The Sea in My Old Drawer" is calm but touching.)
(Fascinated)
(Unutterable joy)
Gosh, it was nice.
(Amazed)
My goodness.
He should be the king.
His opponent...
is a girl who beat Kim Won Hyo...
with her voice that's prettier than flowers.
Numerous
Nights,
Camellia Lady.
(Numerous Nights, Camellia Lady)
(Good luck, My Lady!)
(I'll sing a song that's more beautiful than flowers.)
(We will look forward to it.)
Show us.
I'm excited.
I think she sings so well.
(It's time to spread the scent of a camellia flower.)
(To catch the audience's ears...)
(and beat her rival,)
(what song is she singing?)
(The song starts with the drums.)
(This song is...)
("Back to You Again" by Byun Jin Sub)
(The song begins with her powerful voice.)
- This is so nice. - She's very good.
(Her voice sounds forlorn.)
(It makes people forget about the powerful beginning.)
(She expresses her emotion calmly.)
(Who is she?)
(Why did you do that to me?)
(That I can't leave you)
This is great.
(House Band)
Gosh, I love this.
(Bye.)
(The cuteness has disappeared,)
(and now she just sounds heartbroken and mournful.)
Gosh, this is so good.
(Camellia Lady's "Back to You Again" has left a sense of mourning.)
(They are immersed in her emotion.)
That was nice.
She's so good.
I thought she was like a little girl, but she sounds powerful.
She's very powerful.
The second match...
of Round Two has come to an end.
Hyun Chul, how did you like their performances?
I'm very curious...
about Camellia Lady's age.
It was a ballad song of my generation.
"Back to You Again" by Byun Jin Sub.
When she sang the song,
she understood the lyrics...
as if she experienced it herself.
You mean show knows...
- the sorrow of parting. - Right.
And not once or twice.
And at the end, she always does this.
(Cute)
Like this.
To look cute.
- To show that she's cute. - She didn't forget to do this.
She's very charming.
And about Good Brothers.
He just sings so well.
He's a gifted singer indeed.
He has a powerful and cool voice.
He shook his head like this...
immersed in the music.
It reminded me of Yi Sung Yol.
He has a powerful voice just like Good Brothers.
I see.
I really liked his performance.
Whoever wins this match...
is good enough to become the King of Mask Singer.
All right. Young Seok.
The song Camellia Lady sang...
is one of the most sophisticated...
ballad song in a minor key.
But Camellia Lady has a voice in a major key.
As she sang in a minor key,
it sounded very unique.
She has a naturally young voice.
I don't think she listened to Byun Jin Sub's version...
and reinterpreted it.
Suh Young Eun did a cover of it later on.
I think that's what she listened to...
and reinterpreted in her own style.
That's what I thought.
People said he sounds like Kim Bum Soo and Kim Yeon Woo.
But in this round, he breathed...
more like Ha Hyun Woo.
- Is that right? - Yes.
Every sound he made pierced our ears...
and hearts.
Last time, I said he would go to the Final Round.
And I thank him for making my guess seem more convincing.
I think she is...
a dance singer who was active...
in mid to late 2000s.
She sings very powerfully. It's different from...
- the way people sing these days. - Who is she? Who is she?
I am not sure. But...
I think she's a singer from around that time.
Like Shinji, for example.
She sings like a singer from a mixed-gender group.
I don't think that an actor...
could sing as well as her.
What do you think, Gook Ju?
When Good Brothers sings,
- he's got the energy and charisma. - Right.
He articulated every word.
Listening to him singing really cleared my head.
(My sea)
(He powerfully sang each word.)
(And it cleared her mind.)
I still hope...
he isn't married yet.
- I thought that again. - You love his voice.
Great.
They will showcase their specialties once again.
Hyun Chul is consistently saying that Camellia Lady...
has innate cuteness.
She's going to show us how cute she is.
She will choose two people...
and sing for them. Who will she choose?
Music, please.
(Who will she sing for?)
(Can I call you hey)
(As soon as she begins, she captures men's hearts.)
(Can I say I am yours)
(We need)
(A nickname for each other)
(Seung Hoon)
(It's not me. Oh, my.)
(Jin Woo.)
(I am right here, Camellia Lady.)
(Starting today)
(You are mine)
(Her cuteness is bad for our hearts.)
- My heart raced. - Did your heart race?
- My heart fluttered. - Did it?
She's very cute indeed.
It's Good Brothers' turn.
When he was showing his specialty last week...
My goodness. Gosh.
(He was very displeased.)
Gu Ra really hated it.
I am sorry.
He clicked his tongue.
I forgot about it.
By the way, I am worried.
Your specialty can't improve in a week.
Last week was just a warm-up.
I am excited for his specialty.
Please get excited.
- I am excited for it. - Good Brothers will...
show a magic trick that will bring you good luck on New Year.
First, he's going to levitate a 10-dollar bill.
He's going to use only his energy.
Give your energy to it.
- All right! - What's that?
(It's floating.)
It's going up.
It's floating.
(That was incredible.)
Hey, I am sorry.
But you have to open your hands wider.
You have to open your hands wider.
- He doesn't have enough energy. - He needs to open his hands wider.
Can you open them as wide as you can?
All right. All right.
Here we go. Here we go.
Wider. Wider.
(Will it really not fall?)
- That's good enough. - Wider.
All right.
Isn't he amazing?
But...
Just before we told him to open his hands wider,
he did this.
(He's busted.)
(As soon as he began,)
(he did his best and got ready.)
It must've been hard for him to prepare for that. I'm sorry,
but can you breakdance well?
Just like that?
- That was very sudden. - Can you breakdance?
You can breakdance, can't you?
Why would you ask him that when he just did magic?
Why would you ask him to breakdance?
Show us.
(He's flustered.)
(Inspired by Gu Ra, everyone asks him to dance.)
He didn't write down breakdancing as his specialty.
Is it wrong to ask him to dance when we are suspecting...
him of being a singer?
- We want to see him dancing. - You want to see him dance.
Everyone seems to want it.
Here we go.
All right.
Music, please.
(Random breakdancing)
(He moves like a dancer.)
(He's unexpectedly flexible.)
He's good. He's good.
- He's like a robot. - He's good.
He's good. He's good.
(He exudes swag wearing straw shoes.)
He's good.
(It's very different from last week.)
(Is he the same person who was doing the energy dance?)
So he knows how to dance.
Let's stop there. Let's stop there.
(He danced well when we didn't have any expectations.)
- I know him. - He's good.
- Did he get busted? - I've seen that breakdancing...
several years ago.
I know him.
- You've seen that dance? - Don't neglect me.
Did we get fooled then?
It was you.
I am certain that I know him.
I will protect his identity.
- My gosh. - You saw the breakdancing...
- I will protect him. - Gu Ra is very convinced.
Great.
I think only Gu Ra knows who he is.
Yoon Sang.
He put on a performance completely different from last week,
and I was very surprised by that.
I hope he is the one Gu Ra knows.
(Gu Ra is convinced.)
Camellia Lady,
you seem to have a deep understanding of...
the '90s sentiment, and your performance...
made me really happy.
(Thank you.)
Now, it's time to announce the result of the second match...
of Round Two, Semi-finals.
Between the two masked singers,
who will be moving on to Round Three?
I will announce the result now.
(He's got the voice as clear as the sea.)
(Good Brothers' powerful singing shook the quiet stage.)
(She had the voice that's like the cold winter.)
(Camellia Lady's sorrowful voice touched our hearts.)
Between Good Brothers and Camellia Lady,
who will be the winner of this match?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Who will be fighting against Sky Lantern?)
The winner of the second match is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is it?
(One Rice Sack is Missing, Good Brothers)
Good Brothers won.
(Please continue to do well on Round 3.)
(We knew you would win.)
I think he will become the masked king.
(Don't go, Camellia Lady.)
The score was 68 to 31.
With the score of 68 to 31,
Good Brothers will be competing against Sky Lantern.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Congratulations.
(The cute Camellia Lady's identity will be shortly revealed.)
I won't lose the next round.
She is someone who is innately cute.
Who could she be?
Let's find out right now.
Please move to the back of the stage.
Now, Camellia Lady, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(Is she a member of a mixed-gender group from the 2000s?)
(Or is she a young singer in her 20s?)
Please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(It was her?)
- What is it? - This is crazy.
(Who is she? Who is she?)
Please reveal your face.
She is...
a global Korean Wave star and the original sexy singer,
Chaeyeon.
(Camellia Lady was Chaeyeon?)
Chaeyeon!
It was Chaeyeon.
I didn't think of her.
- Hello, everyone. - It's Chaeyeon.
- Please say hello. - Hello, I am Chaeyeon.
Hello. Did you know it was me?
(She debuted in 2003 and appealed her sexiness.)
(She instantly rose to stardom.)
(She's the original singer of "Two of Us".)
(She's a top singer with many hits.)
(With her fearless talk, she dominated variety shows.)
(She's also a good actress. She's jack-of-all-trades.)
(In China, she's referred as the Queen of China.)
(She's a beloved global star.)
(Even after 17 years, she's still fatally charming.)
(She's the original sexy queen, singer, Chaeyeon.)
Camellia Lady was Chaeyeon.
I didn't want to take off the mask.
- Why? - I was really embarrassed.
You were really embarrassed.
- Your specialty was amazing. - Right.
By the way, I thought you all had a slight idea,
but everyone seemed so surprised.
I had absolutely no clue.
- Really? - I am surprised right now...
because I don't know why I didn't think of Chaeyeon.
But you guessed that she was a solo singer.
- I know. - Last week,
- she sang such a bubbly song. - Right.
- I never thought it might be her. - My goodness.
You thanked her for reminding you of the '90s sentiment.
You guessed that she was a solo artist, so I thought you knew.
When we think of Chaeyeon,
we always think of her as a sexy queen.
Because she is so strongly associated with that image,
I thought she was a balladeer.
And I only went to that direction.
I had no clue that she might be Chaeyeon.
- She chose Byun Jin Sub's song. - Right.
Whenever someone we know so well as her comes out,
we lose our minds.
We feel like we've been wronged. We feel upset.
- You feel upset. - I am very upset.
You are upset that you didn't get her.
- I succeeded. - You succeeded.
- I succeeded. - You succeeded. You did it.
- This is your second appearance. - Right.
You were here last time as Peahen.
Why did you decide to come back?
When I first came here, I was very nervous.
I felt very pressured.
I was worried that...
it might end my singing career.
I worried that people would not listen to my song ever again.
When the show got out,
I saw many encouraging comments.
Some people...
were very surprised when I took off my mask.
I wanted to feel that once again.
That's how I decided to come to this show.
And I wanted to trick you this time.
It has been exactly 17 years since she debuted.
- She's a senior singer. - Yes.
You said you try not to...
go to restrooms so often for the junior singers' sake.
What does this mean?
On music shows,
there are a lot of group singers.
Whenever I bump into them, they bow to me too politely.
The group singers just exchange nods with each other,
but when they see me, all of them bow to me.
So I hold it in until I can't anymore.
Whenever I run into them, I rather feel sorry.
That's why.
- Chaeyeon. - Yes.
I was very surprised today.
Chaeyeon is well-known as...
a nice and hard-working person among celebrities.
This lovely colleague of mine has all my respect.
Was it all right?
(Yes, it was all right.)
Yes.
Good.
Today, Chaeyeon showed us...
all her emotions and singing skills, which had been...
hidden by her sexy image.
- Please give her a big hand. - Go, Chaeyeon!
Thank you.
(We hope to see you in Korea more often.)
As I sing and dance to fast songs,
people usually focus more on what they see.
That's why I wanted to appear on the show,
where I can show myself singing.
I'm planning to be more active on screen this year.
Numerous nights
Camellia Lady was me, Chaeyeon.
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
Now, we're going to have the last round to find out...
who the 93rd masked king is.
Let's meet Sky Lantern who threatens Ken the Eagle,
who is aiming for his fourth victory!
(The Final Match begins with Sky Lantern's performance.)
(Fly high, Sky Lantern!)
(Sky Lantern is ready to fly again.)
(Will the audience's anticipation gives him power...)
(to beat his strong rival...)
(and fly to the throne?)
(Sky Lantern is going to take off.)
(This song has a calm melody. What song is this?)
This song is...
("Moment" by Lee Chang Min)
(It's nice.)
(His sweet voice flies with the sadness.)
I'm so curious to know who he is.
(His expressive voice draws everyone's attention.)
(He's a tough match.)
(He delicately expresses the feeling of love.)
(I can feel it.)
(His saddens deepens for his lost love.)
(The feeling of longing bursts out.)
I love this.
(Sky Lantern performed "Moment" and fascinated everyone.)
(You're awesome.)
(My heart aches.)
He looked so sexy when he put the microphone away in the end.
(Screaming)
Here comes his opponent.
He beat Ryu Su Jeong from Lovelyz and Chaeyeon.
One Rice Sack is Missing,
Good Brothers!
(One Rice Sack is Missing, Good Brothers)
(Let me deliver rice to the throne!)
(Please let us hear you sing.)
I wonder what song he will sing.
Show us what you've got.
(He's only one step away from the throne.)
(What is his final move...)
(to fill the panelists' hearts with emotions...)
(and fight against Sky Lantern's strong wind?)
(This song is...)
This one is a classic.
It hasn't even started yet, but I can feel it'll be great.
("I Can't Have You" by Bank)
(The game is over.)
(He has a crystal-clear voice.)
(This is insane.)
(His gripping performance sounds like a monologue.)
(It's coming.)
(There's sorrow smeared in his clear voice.)
(I can't)
(Have you)
(Oh, gosh.)
I didn't know he was this good.
Who on earth is he?
I'm not sure if it's whom I think it is,
but he's really good.
(They can't help but praise his singing ability.)
(I'm in trouble.)
(Emotions build up, but the melody stays organized.)
(His huge resonation overwhelms the studio.)
(It shows that he is putting his sincerity into each note.)
(This emotional impression can't be settled only with a sack of rice.)
(I can't have you)
("I Can't Have You" resonates deep inside the audience's hearts.)
(His voice has got to be good.)
(Full of emotions)
- This is amazing. - He's good at singing.
I love it.
I can't calm down my heart.
I just can't.
Round Three has ended.
It's not an exaggeration to say this round went head-to-head.
I think Young Seok has a lot to say.
Good Brothers chose to sing...
- "I Can't Have You" by Bank. - That's right.
Jung Si Ro of Bank is my friend.
Whenever he sings this song,
I tell him,
"This song is only for you."
"This is your song."
I tell him that every time.
But now, I really want Si Ro...
to try listening to Good Brothers' version of the song.
"Someone has appeared to pull off your song."
I see.
His performance was dignified,
but at the same time, emotional.
If he succeeds to take the throne,
he'll continue his reign for the first half of this year.
- The first half of the year? - Yes.
You think so?
You're overly into this masked singer.
What do you think about Sky Lantern?
I think he's better in terms of singing techniques.
I see.
His voice sounds experienced...
like sedimentary rock that's been piled for decades.
And the masked king's singing style...
is very similar to his.
Their voices are very expressive.
The king must've felt threatened by watching his performance.
- I see. - That's what I think.
Watching Sky Lantern perform...
made me want to go give him a hug.
It sounded that sorrowful.
I came to wonder...
how solitary and lonely...
he would be when I watched his performance.
In case of Good Brothers,
- I was reminded of omija. - Omija?
I'm sure he's younger than me,
but it feels like he's gone through a lot of experiences.
He sang without much trouble, and when it was delivered,
I was able to savor five different tastes.
You know omija is red.
His performance was burning hot.
That's what I came to my mind.
His performance made me curious...
about him and his life.
Gook Ju, tell us what you think as a female panelist.
You know, it's important for masked singers...
to captivate the audience.
But their singing styles are very different.
Good Brothers is like a reliable man.
He makes me want to follow his lead.
And Sky Lantern...
arouses my maternal instinct.
I want to feed him and take care of him.
The two have two different charms.
For the women in the audience,
Sky Lantern's performance might've...
captured their hearts.
I have the same opinion. I became emotional along with him...
which made me want to look after him.
- Sky Lantern? - The 17-year-old girl...
- wishes to look after him. - The 17-year-old girl.
- He aroused her maternal instinct. - Gosh.
- She wanted to take care of him. - What a charm.
There will be a new king whoever advances to the next round.
- The masked king? - Yes.
Oh, gosh. Please don't be mistaken, Ken the Eagle.
- Well... - It's only his opinion.
- Let me say something about him. - Sky Lantern?
Have you seen Eric Clapton's facial expressions...
when he played the guitar?
How is his face expression?
He frowns.
- That's his style. - Right.
Sometimes, when I think about his play,
I'm reminded of his face more than his fingers.
The game would've been over...
if he had shown his face expression.
What a shame he had to wear a mask.
He's on his mask.
- His emotions... - I liked his expressions.
He's good at expressing his emotions.
But here's what I think about our next king.
My friend from heart,
- Good Brothers... - Good Brothers.
(Good Brothers)
I think he'll break the wings of the current masked king.
He'll drag Ken the Eagle down from the throne.
All right.
Now, it's time...
to reveal the result of Round Three.
Sky Lantern left an intense resonance.
Good Brothers captured the hearts of both male and female audience.
Who will advance to the Final Round?
I'll now reveal the result.
(Sky Lantern's deep expression drew the audience's attention.)
(His voice made them fall for him.)
(Good Brothers sang for a breakup in a calm manner.)
(His voice reminded the audience of the longing heart.)
Who will challenge the current masked king?
Whose voice does the audience want to listen to again?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(It's a fierce match between the strong male vocalists.)
(Who will get to challenge the throne?)
(I'm nervous, Eagle.)
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is the winner?
(Good Brothers wins.)
Good Brothers is the winner.
(His voice is unrivaled indeed.)
- Gosh. - That's it.
(They feel bad for Sky Lantern's defeat.)
Good Brothers has become the opponent of the masked king.
The voting difference is 87 to 12.
- Gosh. - Please move backstage.
Give him a round of applause.
Good Brothers is against the masked king now.
I'll snap your wings, Ken the Eagle.
Let's find out who Sky Lantern is.
Please move to the back of the stage.
Now, Sky Lantern, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(What's the identity of Sky Lantern?)
Please take off your mask and reveal your identity.
(Screaming)
(Oh my goodness.)
- Why? - Who is it?
- Why are they so excited? - Who is he?
He's the sweet vocalist of the sentimental duo, Take.
He's Shin Seung Hee.
(Sky Lantern is Shin Seung Hee of Take?)
Goodness.
(This is crazy.)
- Yoon Seok's guess was right. - Take...
- Did I get his identity right? - Great job, Yoon Seok.
Hello, I'm Shin Seung Hee of Take.
(The singer of "Butterfly Grave", the nostalgic song)
(Take makes a great harmony with their soft voices.)
("Butterfly Grave" is a great song that many artists have covered.)
(They came back as a duo in 2014.)
(Seung Hoon is a singer-songwriter who also write songs and lyrics.)
(With his unchanging amazing singing ability...)
(was acknowledge by the master singer, Jeon Young Rok.)
(A vocalist with great sensibility and 17 years of experience)
(Shin Seung Hee continues to grow as a wonderful singer.)
(They congratulate Yoon Seok.)
That's amazing.
Let me clear things up.
After Ji Sung's performance...
in Round One,
Yoon Seok unexpectedly said...
that he'd be one of the members of Take.
That's what Yoon Seok said.
(Legolas would be one of the members...)
(of a group called Take!)
(He's backstage.)
(Is someone talking about me?)
I knew it!
Seung Hee performed right after that.
You were able to think of Take,
but you failed to recognize him even after hearing his real voice.
I joined Yoon Seok's radio show as a guest.
Yes, that's why.
You joined his radio show.
I want to go home now.
(Disconcerted)
(Laughing)
I thought I should remember Take because he was a great singer,
but I mentioned him at the wrong time.
In Round One, he danced...
to "We Are the Future" by H.O.T...
- Oh, right. - as his specialty.
That's probably why...
you didn't think that he'd be Seung Hee.
Kangta of H.O.T.,
and Junjin of SHINHWA.
You went to the same high school with them.
- Yes. - At that time,
you were as famous as Junjin for being a good dancer?
Yes.
It was when Junjin was a senior.
We lived in the same neighborhood,
and I went to him and said, "Please teach me how to dance."
He said,
"Dancing is all about the silhouette."
That's what he said to me.
- It's all about the silhouette. - The silhouette.
He said that and walked away.
(Remember it, baby.)
(Dancing is all about the silhouette.)
I still remember it.
Many of the masked singers who make it to Round Three...
give their best performance in Round Two,
but then they falter a little in Round Three.
Seung Hee, on the other hand, did better and better in each round.
I thought that he had an amazing singing ability...
and that he has had an enormous amount of practice.
I also thought that he must've wanted...
to perform on stage badly.
His performance was deeply touching.
He gave a warm and cozy performance...
that suits this winter. It was Shin Seung Hee.
Let's give him a big hand again!
(We hope we'll see you more often!)
I've been working as a singer for about 14 to 15 years.
People know our song, "Butterfly Grave",
but they don't really know the members of our group.
I came to this show in the hope that...
many people will remember our group.
I will keep working hard,
so please give me a lot of support.
Bye.
This is the result of Round Three.
One Rice Sack is Missing, Good Brothers...
defeated Shin Seung Hee of Take and moved on to the Final Match!
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
What remains now is the performance of...
My Name Is Ken the Eagle to defend his throne.
What kind of performance will he give to achieve his fourth win?
The 93rd Final Match.
Let's watch the masked king's performance!
(It begins now.)
The 93rd Final Match.
He's beating his wings more powerfully to reach his fourth win.
My Name Is Ken the Eagle!
(It's time for him to fly up.)
(The composure of the masked king)
(Let's go, Ken the Eagle!)
(I want to be an eagle too!)
He looks so cool.
Good luck, Ken the Eagle.
Come on, Ken the Eagle!
Let's go!
(He aims for his 4th win.)
(The audiences are in love with his opponent,)
(Good Brothers.)
(What kind of secret weapon does Ken the Eagle have to fight him?)
("Memory Loss" by Gummy)
(What song is this?)
(The song begins with a sad introduction.)
(As soon as he starts singing, it takes their breaths away.)
(Amazed)
(The introduction raises their expectations.)
What an imposing start.
Here we go. Let's go, Ken the Eagle.
(Ken the Eagle fills up the stage with his own groove.)
(His voice is filled with sadness...)
(of a man who has lost his love.)
- He's hard to defeat. - Yes.
(His voice glamorously embroiders the song.)
(He expresses his sorrowfulness...)
(with his entire body.)
(His improvisations explode.)
(He desperately cries out about his sadness.)
(He has a mesmerizing voice...)
(that makes you hold your breath.)
("Memory Loss" by Ken the Eagle made everyone lose their memories.)
(He's incredible.)
He's the masked king for a reason.
That's why he's the masked king.
He's the masked king for a reason.
The Final Match is now over.
Hyun Chul, who do you think...
will win this match?
I thought that we would have...
a new masked king today,
but I no longer think so.
- Really? - I took a look down...
at the audience,
and many of them were putting their hands together like this...
while listening to his song.
(Ken the Eagle's song...)
(made them put their hands together without realizing.)
- Oh, my. - They were all like this.
"Memory Loss" is...
a very bluesy song.
I believe that he focused more...
on his techniques rather than expressing the bluesy feeling.
His singing techniques were perfect.
They were perfect.
I realized that he is the masked king for a reason.
As for Good Brothers, I'd say,
- "The end". - It's over for him?
But he is like the male version of Yang Hee Eun.
He sings so effortlessly,
and he sings with his mouth wide open.
If Yang Hee Eun were a man,
I think she would sing like that.
Young Seok, you seemed to think that...
- we'd have a new masked king today. - Yes.
What do you think after Ken the Eagle's performance?
He's very good indeed.
His voice sounds so powerful to our ears.
It's so absorbing that we can't even find...
the components of the soul or blues music in his song.
That's how powerful his singing was.
Will there be a new masked king today?
In my opinion, there will be.
You still believe that we'll have a new masked king.
I'm less certain than before though.
- Is that so? - Yes.
In Round Three with Sky Lantern,
Good Brothers got a lot of votes from women.
Let's see which one of them women liked more.
It's about your taste.
I know my taste in music.
- You have your own taste? - Yes, I do.
As for Good Brothers,
he's physically very fit.
He is like an athlete at his prime.
He's talented,
and he has promising future. He's full of spirit.
- He's at his prime. - And...
as for Ken the Eagle,
he was flying in the red sky at sunset...
as if he was drawing a picture in the sky.
He definitely knows women.
He knows how to draw...
the most amazing picture.
He plays with our hearts.
His performance was mesmerizing.
(He's a charming heartthrob.)
- But... - But?
One of them suits my taste in music.
Did it sound obvious?
- It was pretty obvious. - Who is he?
You said "but" at a very crucial moment.
Bong Sun's comment relieved me.
We have different tastes.
We will never fight over a man.
She said Ken the Eagle knows women well.
His cape is like octopus legs.
- His legs are put on many women. - Oh, my.
- His cape looks like octopus legs. - What a playboy.
I like innocent athletes too,
but a man who knows what he's capable of...
and plays with my heart...
and the song is my type.
- A manly man. - He'd say, "Hey, Gook Ju."
"How can you resist a man like me?"
I hate men who upset you.
I guess I'm still immature.
Women have mixed opinions as well.
I would like him to give me one of his octopus legs.
(He rips one of his octopus legs.)
It's hard to predict how this will end.
All right. I just got the result of 93rd Final Match.
There was a seven-vote difference.
(Oh, my goodness.)
Who is going to be the masked king?
It was a close match where there was only a seven-vote difference.
Who is going to take over the throne and be the 93rd masked king?
Let's find out right now!
(In Round One, he gave a soft and fluttering performance.)
(But he had his hidden power.)
(In Round Two, he gave a simple and refreshing performance.)
(In Round Three, he gave a desperate and sad performance.)
(From emotions to techniques, Ken the Eagle has everything.)
Between Good Brothers and Ken the Eagle,
who will be the 93rd King of Mask Singer?
The winner is...
I'm so curious.
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Who is the winner of this close match?)
Who has become the winner by seven votes?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
The winner is...
(Coming next)
(Oh Joong can hear the sound of nature.)
(He can now communicate with nature?)
(On the other hand, he's incredibly uncommunicative in front of others.)
(Furious)
(What is going to happen to this two-faced man?)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(My Name Is Ken the Eagle wins.)
(Ken the Eagle's 4th consecutive victory)
Ken the Eagle wins!
(Ken the Eagle managed to keep the throne!)
(Screaming)
I guessed the winner.
He did give a passionate performance.
Ken the Eagle is the winner.
With a score of 53 to 46, Ken the Eagle wins.
With a score of 53 to 46,
he successfully wins four times in a row.
He is now ranked second...
among the male masked kings.
He gets the golden mask and the king's robe back.
(Congratulations)
He's the fourth male masked king...
who succeeded to win four times in a row.
Would you like to say a word?
Actually,
I didn't even think I could be a masked king.
Thank you so much for giving me such a great chance.
I'm going to do my best in the next performance as well.
Thank you very much.
(We'll be looking forward to it.)
He succeeded to win four times in a row.
Please give him a round of applause once again.
Ken the Eagle has achieved his fourth victory.
He's been the 90th, 91st, and 92nd masked king, and now he's the 93rd.
Ken the Eagle managed to win four times in a row.
Please come to the back of the stage and reveal your identity.
Now, Good Brothers, please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(He's a great singer who almost became the masked king.)
(He's got an amazing sense of rhythm.)
(Is he Gu Ra's acquaintance who breakdances well?)
Please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(Screaming)
He is...
(For real?)
(Their hearts pound.)
Why? Who is he?
(Surprised)
What's going on?
He is...
He debuted through "The Great Birth".
He is Lee Tae Kwon!
I knew it!
(My guess was right!)
Well done.
(Fascinated)
He's a really great singer.
Could you please say hi to the viewers?
Hello, I'm singer Lee Tae Kwon.
(Chuckling)
(He made a surprising appearance with his sentimental voice.)
(With his resonant and loud voice,)
(he came in second place in "The Great Birth".)
(His breakdance is on a professional level.)
(His face never changes.)
(In 2012, he officially debuted with a song Kim Tae Kwon wrote.)
(He's a skilled vocalist who has a resonant voice.)
(Lee Tae Kwon is a natural-born singer who wants to sing forever.)
Gu Ra, when you saw him breakdancing,
you said you knew him. Is he the man you had in your mind?
After the breakdance, I was sure I was right.
(His dance moves look familiar.)
(I know him!)
The only people who dance like that is Kim Je Dong and him.
(Laughing)
You recalled a memory from seven years ago.
- It suddenly came to my mind. - Goodness.
It's been a while since we have seen you on screen.
After "The Great Birth",
I wasn't on television for about 6 to 7 years.
Wherever I go,
many people recognize me,
but they're not sure how they know me.
I once went to Noryangjin Fish Market,
and a vendor asked why I wasn't buying fish from him this time.
(He likes the story.)
You looked familiar to him.
I hope you remember me as a singer through this show.
On the day you got a phone call from our staff,
- you stepped on a dog poop? - Yes.
- Yes. - I see.
I was walking in my neighborhood that day.
All of a sudden, I felt something wet on my foot.
It turned out I stepped on a dog poop.
While I was washing it off with water,
I got a phone call from an unknown number.
Because of the dog poop, I was upset when I picked up the phone.
But apparently the dog poop brought me a good luck.
It looks like it.
You had a chance to be acclaimed by many people.
Young Seok has been...
cheering for him wholeheartedly.
Young Seok, you must be pretty sad.
Yes, I am.
I saw him on "The Great Birth" as well.
And it's been a long time since.
It seems like he proved...
that he has been developing in the meantime.
He's singing skills have become much better than back then.
Most importantly,
his performance reminded us of the value of sound.
I like that his performance is not pretentious.
I have no idea why such good singers always get eliminated.
(I see what you mean.)
- You must be upset. - Yes.
I hope what's upsetting me right now...
will encourage him to get even better.
Thank you for the great performance.
Thank you.
After a long break, he came back to the stage...
and showed his great presence again.
Please give a round of applause to Tae Kwon!
Thank you.
(We look forward to more of your performances!)
I thought that my dance has improved a lot since then,
but it seems like it hadn't.
I guess I'm not talented in dancing.
I'll focus on singing from now.
As I debuted through an audition program,
I was curious to know if people will still like me...
with my face covered.
I was very happy...
to hear from the panelists that I have become...
much better.
I might not be a fast learner,
but I hope you remember me...
as a hard working singer who always becomes better.
(Next week)
(Amazing performances...)
(performed by amazingly charming and sentimental singers)
(An incredible contestant shows up to stir the show?)
(Ken the Eagle wants his 5th victory!)
(Sir, could you help me?)
(But powerful contestants...)
(close in on the masked king.)
(Ken the Eagle, can you handle this?)
(Poor Ken the Eagle.)
(Nobody expected to see such a shocking result.)
(King of Mask Singer)
