The King of Mask Singer, 100th King Special.
The special performance begins.
(100th King Special)
(The oldest regular panelists of The King of Mask Singer, Young Seok)
(Yoon Sang, Hyun Chul)
(And Kim Gu Ra and Kim Seong Ju are back?)
(Oh, my gosh!)
(It's nice to see you.)
Guys, you're awesome.
There they are.
(Oh, my.)
(He's a beautiful bard.)
(He mimics him.)
(No one has ever seen such a legendary collaboration.)
(An amazing harmony of the best singers of the time)
(Oh, my goodness.)
("Child Who I'm Looking for" by Deulgukhwa)
(Cheering)
(It's a familiar voice.)
(Giggling)
(You can recognize his voice even when you're asleep.)
He's good.
(Here we go.)
(Laughing)
(Everyone has to know his voice.)
(Snorting)
(He holds Seong Ju's hand tight.)
(Me?)
He held his hand.
(He held the hand of the person he hates.)
(Affectionate)
(Giggling)
(The two are so lovey-dovey.)
(Now, please take off your masks and reveal your identities!)
(Who are you?)
(Screaming)
(As we expected, they were Gu Ra and Seong Ju!)
(Cheering)
(Look over there.)
Who are they?
(Two men show up on the stage.)
(They are Kai and Ho Young.)
(How nice to see you!)
It's somehow touching to watch Gu Ra singing.
(It's a thrilling reunion of The King of Mask Singer family.)
(The 100th King Special pleases your ears.)
(The original king, Cho Yong Pil)
(You're always welcome, Seung Hwan.)
(We're waiting for you, So Ra.)
(We love you, Lena and Hyo Shin.)
(We want to see you in The King of Mask Singer.)
(We can definitely meet.)
(Welcome, soon-to-be masked kings and queens.)
(Shin Seung Hun, Kim Gun Mo, Lee Juck, Kim Dong Ryul,)
(Kim Yoon Ah, Kim Bum Soo, Yoon Min Su, Kim Jong Wan,)
(Jeong Joon Il, Kim Jin Ho and many more.)
Thank you.
(They gave an impressive special performance.)
(Cheering)
(That was amazing.)
That was surprising.
Gu Ra is a better singer than I thought.
- He's so good. - He did a great job.
Good job.
(Laughing)
The mysterious music show, The King of Mask Singer.
This is the 100th King Special.
I am your unbiased show host, Kim Seong Ju. Hello.
(It's nice to see you.)
Thanks to your long-standing love,
the 199th episode...
of The King of Mask Singer is aired this week...
and the 200th episode is going to be aired next week.
We love all masked kings and queens,
but the 1st masked king and the 100th masked king...
- mean a lot to us. - That's right.
We have previous masked kings and queens as guests today.
- Right. - Yes.
The first masked queen is here with us as well.
Please take a close look at the masks today.
They're all masks of kings.
All of them are masks of kings.
You're going to see what kings they are.
The 100th King Special.
Now, let the first match...
of Round One begin!
(Let the fierce competition begin!)
(The King of Mask Singer)
The first match of Round One.
Big Chestnut Bread...
in the Photo.
It's not him.
Any Grudge against Me,
Big Red Bean Bread!
(Any Grudge against Me, Big Red Bean Bread)
Let me sing a sweet song like a red bean paste.
(The bread is full of sweet red bean paste.)
(I want two of them.)
Big Red Bean Bread?
He even looks like him.
He must be related to Muzie.
(Me?)
Here comes his opponent.
Kiss my lips.
Kiss my song.
You chose Red Mouth. Choose me...
or face a disaster.
Blue Mouth!
(Choose Me or Face a Disaster, Blue Mouth)
Kiss my lips
(She swings her hips.)
(Oh, my goodness.)
(She shows off her charming moves as she walks in.)
Gosh, she's so sexy.
Her gestures are similar to Bong Sun's.
She does walk like a comedienne.
(Their masks resemble previous masked kings' masks.)
(Red Mouth and Big Chestnut Bread are watching them.)
(The 100th King Special will...)
(meet the high expectations of the panelists.)
(The first match begins right now!)
("Clown" by Leessang)
(Surprised)
(Her charming voice catches your ears.)
(She sounds like a professional singer.)
(Blue Mouth captivates all the audience in a second.)
(I'm falling in love with her.)
(Impressed)
(He sings rhythmically with his sweet deep voice.)
(Who could he be?)
(Oh, my goodness.)
(Big Red Bean Bread raps powerfully.)
(Oh, my gosh.)
(Like this.)
(I can't ride it, so I'm just dragging it.)
(Big Red Bean Bread and Blue Mouth performed "Clown".)
(That was amazing.)
That was amazing!
They deserve to wear those masks.
That was really great.
The first match of Round One is now over.
For the 100th King Special,
we gave them special masks and nicknames,
Big Red Bean Bread and Blue Mouth.
They're doppelgangers of the previous masked king and queen.
Let's hear the previous masked king and queen's opinions first.
I was surprised to see her outfit. It looks just like what I wore.
She started singing first in the introduction, right?
I was already captivated by her at that moment.
I see.
I'm sure everyone was also fascinated...
- when she started singing. - You think so?
How about Big Red Bean Bread?
Fortunately,
he seems like a young person.
- He does? - Yes.
He doesn't seem old?
His looks...
and the way he moves to the rhythm...
suggest that he's much younger than me.
He definitely seems like an idol singer.
Personally,
I think he might be a rapper.
A rapper in an idol group?
Yes. I think that's probably why...
- he did all the raps. - Right.
That's my guess.
You've given us much information.
Does Blue Mouth seem like an old person then?
Yes, it's when she walked into the stage.
She seemed very confident.
It made me think that she has a lot of experience on stage.
I don't think she'd be someone very young.
- You don't think she's young? - I'm not sure,
- Right. - but that's what I think.
I'd like to talk about Blue Mouth's voice.
The way she acts suggests that she's not young.
Right.
But her singing style and techniques...
suggest that she's someone young.
She seems to have a modern sense of music.
But you don't think she's young?
Someone old who has a modern sense?
When she walked in, I thought she'd be a comedienne.
When she walked in?
But when she stared singing,
I thought her nickname should be Golden Mouth.
Her performance was very good.
I see.
When Big Red Bean Bread started singing,
I could see that he has a great sense of rhythm.
He looks like an amazing musician.
You think he's a musician?
Yoon Sang and I...
had a fierce debate about whether he's a musician or not...
during the first verse.
But at the end of the second verse,
I was thinking about whom I should vote for.
You think this will be a close match?
He turned the song into one of his own.
He has great potential.
I see.
This is our 200th episode, and it's such a happy occasion.
This show has been going on for four years now.
I believe that it's about time we vented someone's spite.
- Okay. - You see,
Blue Mouth danced a little...
during the performance.
(Like this?)
That really reminded me of Jo Hye Ryun.
(It looked like her famous move.)
Jo Hye Ryun's name is brought up.
Yes, that's the move!
- "I'll make you pay for this." - That's the one.
Hye Ryun is actually a good singer.
She's done some musicals.
She changed her voice too much to hide her identity...
when she was here last time.
(She hid her identity with a little too breathy voice.)
(She got 4 votes which is the lowest number of votes so far.)
She got four votes then.
Maybe she came here again to vent her spite.
- To vent her spite? - Yes.
- To make up for the lowest record? - Look at her.
- That's the one. - She's good.
- This move? - Not everyone can do that.
Yes, that move.
- Don't you agree? - Hye Ryun...
has done many musicals...
and taken singing lessons.
Her singing has improved tremendously.
- But Blue Mouth isn't her. - Why?
She walked into the stage with very light steps.
She seems like a very good dancer as well.
Just like Hani of EXID,
maybe she's someone who hasn't been able to...
reveal her true singing style because she's in a girl group.
(People thought Hani was an aged singer.)
I thought she could be someone who's been...
hiding her real voice in a girl group.
Maybe that's the singing style that she really likes.
Gu Ra and Bong Sun seem to have very different opinions.
I don't say anything so general like that.
It's actually ridiculous that you think she's Jo Hye Ryun.
If she was Hye Ryun, her sleeves...
would be tight with her arm muscles.
Listen.
If I was the one who thought she was Hye Ryun,
you'd tell me that it's nonsense.
I would've backed you up.
- What? - Seriously.
- For this special episode? - Yes.
I believe this is a good chance for Hye Ryun to vent her spite.
All right. Now, let's see their specialties.
Let's start with Big Red Bean Bread.
Apparently, he loves music so much that...
he can play piano even during his sleep.
Maybe he'll play it while lying down.
He's going to bed now.
(What?)
Are you ready?
He's ready. Okay.
Even when he's sleeping,
he plays piano because he loves music so much.
Go ahead!
(Wow)
He's playing "Chopsticks".
(He plays the song...)
(and goes back to sleep.)
(That's amazing.)
He's gone back to sleep.
How can he play it like this?
He will play "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen this time.
(Excited)
In the middle of sleeping.
Let us hear it!
(Playing the piano)
(He's doing it!)
(Wow)
Oh, my.
This is the completely opposite way.
Mama
(This is extraordinary.)
(I'm sleepy again.)
(I'm going back to sleep.)
He's gone back to sleep again.
That was great.
I'm sure he's a musician.
It's Blue Mouth's turn now.
She will imitate Park Hee Jin...
playing Ms. Anseong in "Hello Franceska".
Ms. Anseong has something to say to Gu Ra.
Go ahead.
(Imitating Ms. Anseong)
Gu Ra. If you aren't busy,
let's have a cup of coffee.
That's it.
Gu Ra seems to be enjoying it.
He liked it.
She sounded just like Ms. Anseong.
(Blue Mouth imitated me perfectly.)
This time, she'll imitate someone who was famous for her unique voice.
This is a song from the 90s.
Juju Club?
It's "I Am Me" by Juju Club.
("I Am Me" by Juju Club)
(Singing the song)
She's certainly not young.
It's Ms. Anseong singing the song.
Let us hear it!
(Getting into Ms. Anseong's voice)
(Singing the song)
(It sounds like she's repeating the word, "scrub".)
(Who made the reservation for a scrub at 5:30pm?)
(Ms. Anseong will give you a scrub.)
- That's all. - She's good.
(Jung A recognizes her talent too.)
I don't think she's a young person.
She's bold-faced.
I will now announce...
the result of the first match of Round One.
Who will be the first one to advance to Round Two?
Let's find out the winner of this match...
- Now! - Now!
(A harmony between a charming low voice and a soulful voice)
(Their ensemble was sad yet glamorous.)
Who will win this match...
and be the first one to move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(The winner is)
(Which of them will carry the torch?)
(Who is it going to be?)
The winner is...
Who is it?
The winner is...
(Blue Mouth wins.)
Blue Mouth is the winner.
(We want to taste blue some more.)
I'm dying to know who she is.
(We knew she would win.)
(We were rooting for Big Red Bean Bread.)
"I'll make you pay for this."
Blue Mouth defeated Big Red Bean Bread...
with a score of 61 to 38.
She defeated him with a score of 61 to 38...
and became the first one to advance to Round Two.
Please go back to your waiting room. Let's give it up for her.
The winner is Blue Mouth.
If I lose in Round Two,
I will ruin everything.
All right.
Who could this man be?
Let's find out who Big Red Bean Bread is...
with a solo performance.
Please give him a big round of applause!
(Is Big Red Bean Bread an idol singer...)
(whose musical talents stand out?)
("Ties" by Lee Juck)
It's like watching Muzie's performance again.
(Is it?)
(Oh, my gosh.)
(He starts singing with a calm low-pitched voice.)
He has a very nice voice.
(His calm and heavy voice sounds fascinating.)
(How can I untie them?)
(Tied up)
He has such a charming voice.
Now, Big Red Bean Bread, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
(Is this a dream?)
He is...
He might be really handsome.
Who is he?
Reveal your identity.
He is...
the leader of the popular boy band, N.Flying.
He's the young singer songwriter, Lee Seung Hyub.
N.Flying.
He's an idol singer.
(Without the mask, he's even more charming.)
I was going to mention N.Flying.
(It's so good.)
(He makes the female panelists' hearts flutter.)
(House Band)
(The addictive, charming low voice, "Ties" by Lee Seung Hyub)
(He's such a dreamboat.)
He's filling the entire stage.
I knew my eyes were zooming in.
(Zooming)
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, I'm Seung Hyub of N.Flying. It's nice to meet you.
(He first appeared in the field with Jimin of AOA in 2015.)
(Later he made his official debut as a member of N.Flying.)
(Their song, "Rooftop" topped the music chart...)
(a while after its release in 2019.)
(All the tickets for their concert tour in Japan got sold out.)
(The rising global rookie)
(He's skilled at playing the instruments.)
(His acting ability ranges diverse characters.)
(He looks like a dream boyfriend in many of his pictures.)
(He's here.)
(Lee Seung Hyub of N.Flying has colorful charms like palette.)
His charming sentiments stand out when he performs.
His song, "Rooftop", started to climb back up the music chart...
since last February.
It even placed first.
It's currently on the fourth.
Now?
Good for him.
For your information, Seung Hyub wrote this song and its lyrics.
That's right.
(It's crazy.)
(He's so cool.)
As someone who wrote the song,
it must feel quite meaningful for you.
It still doesn't feel real.
It was actually impossible for that song to become popular.
Really?
I posted it on my personal account,
and people inquired what the song was about.
There wasn't any plan,
but we suddenly got to release an album thanks to it.
- I see. - That's what the song means to me.
Here's what I think.
We were confused whether he was an idol singer or not...
because his voice was...
special and extraordinary.
If he keeps singing with his voice for a long time,
I believe his life will continue...
to climb back on top just like his song.
And he'll meet his biggest heyday one day.
That's what I think.
- I see. - Thank you.
Fortunately, his face behind the mask...
turned out very handsome. I was happy for it.
I was so scared...
the staff might've cast Yoo Se Yoon...
because I'm here as a panelist today.
I was a little worried.
I'm so grateful it's Lee Seung Hyub,
the handsome singer.
We hope he becomes an iconic singer who's more than climbing back.
Please give this passionate leader, Lee Seung Hyub,
a big round of applause.
(We'll keep cheering on you.)
People might think it's silly,
but I'd like to sing as the member of N.Flying until I turn 80.
It's surely far away in the future,
but my plan is to continue my career until that age.
With your members?
Yes, they've agreed on it.
We've promised.
Any Grudge against Me, Big Red Bean Bread...
is me, Seung Hyub of N.Flying.
Please give N.Flying a lot of love.
Thank you.
As the result of Round One,
Choose Me or Face a Disaster, Blue Mouth...
won against Seung Hyun of N.Flying and advanced to Round Two.
It's the second match of Round One.
"Nice people better choose me."
I Live with Nature Too, Naked King.
(I Live with Nature Too, Naked King)
I'll unveil my hidden singing ability.
(Now is his era.)
(The audience is excited to watch his high-class performance.)
I thought he was naked for real.
He's got a feeling.
It's not easy to wear such an outfit.
Against him...
is the masked singer who wishes to reach straight to the throne.
Shouldn't I Go Up, Minimum Wage.
(Shouldn't I Go Up, Minimum Wage)
Don't you feel like I have to go up?
(Raise me high.)
(We'd love to.)
Is it a woman or a man? It seems like a man.
It's a woman?
- A woman? - It's a man.
(It's the battle between the two issue makers.)
(Who will capture the audience's hearts?)
(Will it be Naked King with a velvet robe?)
(Or will it be Minimum Wage in a uniform?)
- Wait. - Isn't it "Dam Da Di"?
("Dam Da Di" by Lee Tzsche)
(Their voices make a nice harmony.)
Both of them are women?
(Nodding)
(For real?)
(Naked King's voice...)
(is sophisticated and warm.)
(Putting his shocking outfit aside,)
(the audience draws their ears to his voice.)
(Minimum Wage's voice is...)
(as cheerful as her gestures.)
(Bouncing gently to the rhythm,)
(she shows her excitements.)
(Bouncing)
Oh, gosh.
(She shows the original dance moves.)
(With the old-time dance,)
(the performance is even more exciting.)
- Is it a man? - It's a woman.
(They got fooled.)
(His soft voice...)
(makes the audience fall in love.)
(She expresses the lyrics with all her body.)
(She's got pleasant charms.)
(The two masked singers with different colors...)
(make a harmony together.)
(Releasing her excitements)
(Her bright energy is delivered to the audience.)
(Such an exciting performance,)
("Dam Da Di" by Naked King and Minimum Wage)
(It feels like we're at a membership training!)
- It's like we're at a retreat. - Really.
They dance well.
That was the second match of Round One.
Can we hear from Yoon Sang?
It took me quite a long time to figure out Naked King's gender.
I thought it was a guy at first,
and then sang with a female's voice.
I was very confused.
I was once fooled by Kwon Sun Il.
(He was fooled by Sun Il's high pitch,)
(and claimed it was a woman.)
(He was very embarrassed by that.)
This time, I'm sure it's a man.
You're sure it's a man?
He sang the verses with different octaves,
the first and second verse.
- I think he's a singer. - Okay.
Minimum Wage was rather...
having fun up there.
On the stage?
I don't think she's a professional singer.
(How dare you!)
I don't think she's an actress.
I think she's one of...
the famous entertainers.
Do you have something to say?
You don't think I'm a professional singer?
(She's very upset with the comment.)
When you speak,
you don't need to alter your voice.
I don't want to get caught.
(She really wants to hide who she is.)
We do the alteration for you.
I think she belongs to the spot next to Song Hae.
- She'd win a popularity award... - Yes.
if she went on the National Singing Contest.
- I hope she doesn't... - Yes?
turn out to be like Jo Hye Ryun.
Right.
- So I think... - Yes.
she'll be getting 3 or 4 votes.
Will Minimum Wage get the minimum votes?
- Yes, I think that's possible. - Okay.
She was having fun up there.
Didn't Naked King kind of...
sounded like Kim Jong Seo?
- Kim Jong Seo? - What?
(Shaking)
- Okay. - Today...
- is the 200th episode. - They don't agree with you.
I've decided to say anything that's in my head.
(He's embarrassed.)
- I mean, just a little bit. - Yes.
- He kind of sounds like Jong Seo. - Yes.
- Just a little bit. - No way.
She or he's too naked to be Jong Seo.
Oh, well.
- Very good. - Naked King...
did kind of sound like Jong Seo.
- He did, right? - He sounded like...
- Kim Jong Seo? - I was right!
- When she did this. - That's what I was saying!
(Can't I love you)
- He did sound like him. - That's what I meant.
I'm pretty sure.
You think Naked King could be Kim Jong Seo.
Minimum Wage...
I almost called you my aunt.
I almost did.
I don't think she knew the dance of the song that well.
You're supposed to...
Dam da di dam
Do it just once.
1, 2, 3, at the last beat.
She didn't know when to pop.
(She was definitely offbeat.)
- She didn't know when. - Did she?
This is how you do it.
Dam da di dam da di dam
It's supposed to be like this.
She's doing it again!
She's just a bad dancer, that's all.
She doesn't know the dance.
I think that...
she could be Sayuri.
- Sayuri? - Yes.
Minimum Wage is Sayuri?
- She keeps doing the move nonstop. - Right.
You need to be shameless like Sayuri...
to be able to do that.
But she had good pronunciation.
She reminds me of one more person.
- Who is it? - Oh Jung Yeon.
- Oh Jung Yeon? - The newscaster.
Okay.
No way.
- No, it's not. - It can't be her.
When you look at entertainers,
there are certain habits when they're standing.
Like what?
Not many people stand like this.
Okay, stop right there.
- Yes. - You mean her feet?
If you keep standing like this,
people like me, we hurt our hips.
- Okay. - But,
she seems to be comfortable in that stance.
So I think that's her habit.
She's right!
Oh Jung Yeon took a part-time job at a cafe...
- on a minimum wage! - Right, that's it!
- That was it! - Yes.
It's Oh Jung Yeon.
- She's right. - To be honest,
I didn't know Jung Yeon was such a bad singer.
Yeong Seok keeps telling me,
"That can't be her. Jung Yeon couldn't sing that bad."
All right, your guess is she's Oh Jung Yeon.
Very good.
It's about time we see their specialties.
Let's listen to Minimum Wage's actual voice.
First off, Cristina.
Show us your impression of Cristina!
(Screaming)
Hello.
This is Cristina.
My husband...
cooks great kimchi jjigae.
(That was just like her.)
She's a foreigner.
- You think so? - Yes.
Is it Sayuri or Oh Jung Yeon?
Jung Yeon's trying her best out there.
It's time for Naked King's specialty.
It's also an impression.
Impression of Park Hyo Shin!
(Impression of Park Hyo Shin)
(Don't do that.)
(Laughing)
Naked King's embarrassed.
Show us your impression of Park Hyo Shin!
Memories resemble love
I keep looking back
That's all of it.
(Wow)
He's good.
And next up, impression of Min Kyung Hoon!
(Impression of Min Kyung Hoon)
(He's using his head voice passionately.)
(Laughing)
(No matter how it hurts)
(He sounds just like Min Kyung Hoon.)
(He's just like him.)
(What's wrong with this guy?)
(That was good.)
- He's a rocker. - Yes.
Keep in mind that was his actual voice.
It's time for Minimum Wage's specialty.
She's here to show you how to count money faster.
We'll see how fast she is.
(That's interesting.)
I can't wait.
This thing was hard to find.
We found the machine and checked for it.
She'll first show you how regular people counts.
Let's see how many she counts in 10 seconds.
Set, go!
1, 2, 3, 4.
Okay.
She has 10 seconds.
This is how people usually do it.
Time's up!
By how regular people count them,
we gave her 100 bills,
and she counted 15 of them.
15 bills in 10 seconds.
You're going to do both ways?
The regular way and your way?
Yes, she is.
Okay, fair enough.
Now she'll show you how she actually counts...
in 10 seconds.
Is she wetting her hand with spit?
She's putting spit on her hand!
(She did it again.)
Let me check your hand.
That's a lot of...
(It's moist.)
That's a lot.
That's a lot of saliva.
She's going to need it.
Regular people counts 15 bills in seconds.
How many will she count?
Get set, go!
(It's clearly a lot faster!)
(That's amazing.)
- Wow. - Look at her.
7, 8,
9,
time's up!
- My goodness. - That was fast.
- She counted a lot. - Let's see.
She needs to correctly guess how many she counted.
How many was it?
40 bills.
Let's see if she's right. 40 bills!
It was 33.
She missed seven of them?
She did.
- She missed seven? - That's a huge gap.
- Come on now. - Shouldn't you know how many?
It's going to be a problem if you don't count them right.
What was the saliva for?
(What was the saliva for?)
We'll give you one more chance.
One more chance.
Again with the spit.
(She's doing it again.)
Ready, get set, go!
(She's still fast enough.)
She's counting them.
5 seconds passed!
(The audience is also focused.)
Time's up!
Time is up.
Let me have those.
How many were they?
It was 33.
It was 33 before.
This is also 33?
We'll see.
Did she get it right?
Let's see.
(Did she get it right this time?)
(I hope she's right.)
Let's see.
It's 27.
- 27. - You're done.
- Stop right there. - Stop counting.
Don't ever do it again.
It turns out...
it wasn't actually her specialty.
We didn't even need this machine.
Who is she?
Minimum Wage is...
a bit naive.
I also think she's funny.
And a bit old.
She reminds me of a senior of mine.
- It's Park Mi Sun. - Park Mi Sun?
I think she resembles Park Mi Sun.
(No way!)
Right, Park Mi Sun.
He thinks she's Park Mi Sun.
Now, I will announce the result of the second match of Round One.
I'm sure you will all be surprised.
Is she going for the record?
Is she turning out to be like Jo Hye Ryun?
While many of you already know who will move on to the next round,
(Laughing)
The match between the two rhythmical...
masked singers.
I'll now reveal the winner of this match!
(With such a sweet voice,)
(Naked King made everyone fall in love with him.)
(Minimum Wage gave off her charms...)
(with a cute voice.)
Who is the second winner?
Who will move on to Round Two?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Which of the participant...)
(has captured the minds of the audience?)
We'll have to find out.
The winner is...
Who is it? Let's see who's the winner.
The winner is...
The winner was...
(I Live with Nature Too, Naked King is the winner.)
Naked King.
(That's our Naked King!)
(That's too bad.)
What was the difference in the number?
Is she going for the record?
The result is...
74 to 25.
Minimum Wage did okay.
She got more votes than we thought she would.
(She got more than Hye Ryun.)
Please return to your waiting room.
Please give a round of applause!
Naked King moves on to Round Two.
Watch me again on Round Two!
We will reveal the identity of Minimum Wage...
with a solo performance...
prepared for Round Two.
Please give a big hand!
(One of the popular entertainers?)
(Sayuri or Park Mi Sun?)
("Firefly" by Shin Hyung Won)
(She's good.)
(Her voice is very refreshing like grass.)
She's much better.
(Her voice is tender,)
(different from the duet performance.)
(Ukulele playing)
(Her singing cheers everyone who's listening.)
(Minimum Wage's performance was very nostalgic.)
Now, Minimum Wage, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face!
(I can't believe this!)
I want to know.
(Who could Minimum Wage be?)
Who is it?
Reveal your face!
Minimum Wage is...
one of the global wannabe couple.
She has captured all of China,
Ham So Won!
(Minimum Wage was Ham So won?)
- What? - That's awesome!
(It was Ham So Won.)
(It was a twist no one ever saw coming.)
(That was such a twist.)
(She filled the stage with her positive energy.)
(Dancing altogether)
(I cry myself to sleep)
(Ham So Won's nostalgic performance of "Firefly")
(That was great.)
You're so cute.
I should've known.
Please introduce yourself to the viewers.
I am Ham So Won. Hello.
Thank you.
(She won the Miss Korea pageant in 1997.)
(Her acting is very unique,)
(she was in all genres.)
(She also gave off her charms in variety shows.)
(She challenged herself in 2003 with her solo album.)
(She was the original techno queen.)
(Then she made her way to China.)
(She got married to a Chinese man 18 years younger than her...)
(and became the world's most envied couple.)
(Ham So Won's charms capture everyone.)
The panel was sure you're not a singer.
However, in 2003,
- you made... - Yes.
a debut as a singer.
- Dancing singer. - Yes.
- You were the queen of techno. - I was.
Right, techno.
You released your first album in 2003.
- Right. - Yes.
You tried very hard...
- to conceal yourself. - I did.
I was trying to sing bad.
- Yes, because you can sing better. - It was very difficult.
(She's so cute.)
You married Jin Hua...
who is 18 years younger.
Many people were interested.
How do you feel about that?
Before we got married,
I wasn't feeling that much of a gap.
So I didn't know our age gap was going to be...
such a big issue.
But many people were interested...
and blessed us so I felt happy.
- We're very grateful. - Yes.
Did you tell your husband?
- I did tell him, - You did.
and he didn't want to believe it.
- I told him I was showing up here. - Yes.
He said, "Can you really go up there with your singing?"
- And kind of diminished me. - Yes.
He was asking me until this morning.
- He wanted to make sure. - He wanted to make sure.
Yes.
I finally understand why she was standing like that.
She won the Miss Korea pageant,
- that was why. - You're right.
That was why she was standing like that.
And she's very honest with herself,
which looks very beautiful.
I think a lot of fans in China...
must have loved her.
It was great seeing you.
Yes.
With her charms that captured all of China,
she successfully dominated The King of Mask Singer.
Please give a big round of applause for her.
(We look forward to your future endeavors.)
(We love you!)
I was very surprised.
They said I could break the record of Hye Ryun's four votes.
I didn't know what to do.
But I got 25 votes,
and I'm very relieved.
It was very fun being on the stage after such a long time.
I had fun up there.
I hope you guys had fun too.
Thank you.
The third match of Round One.
Walk confidently anywhere you go
Genius Athlete, Power Walking!
(Genius Athlete, Power Walking)
My song never gets tired,
let's go!
(Walking proudly)
(We finished warming up.)
She is walking powerfully.
Powerfully.
Contending against her is...
a hidden gem for variety shows with great singing skills,
Good-looking Stocking.
(Good-looking Stocking)
You'll be fascinated by my look and my singing as well.
(His look is as shocking as the 4th industrial revolution.)
(They open their eyes...)
(to see good-looking Stocking.)
For goodness' sake.
It'll be so funny to sing a ballad with that face.
(Laughing)
I also put it on often when I was a rookie.
(Who's a better singer, the athletic one or the good-looking one?)
(Who will be the winner of this match?)
(Power Walking who seems to be strong...)
(is facing Stocking who seems to be soft.)
(The intro of this song is already amazing.)
How beautiful the intro is.
("Don't Worry" by Jun In Kwon)
- My gosh. - My gosh.
(Her husky voice fascinates our ears.)
(It resonates deeply.)
(Gosh, it's so good.)
(His composed voice...)
(gives calm and gentle comfort.)
Goodness, what is this?
(Sensitive and warm sentiments...)
(that could console people)
(A voice that soothes tired hearts)
(She touches our hearts with her rough voice.)
(Patting)
(The memories about tough moments...)
(will be remembered as beautiful days when you look back someday.)
(They are singing about new dreams.)
(Her rough voice...)
(delivers warm sentiments.)
(They send a refreshing message through "Don't Worry".)
(They have deep lingering feelings.)
(That was great.)
I like it so much.
(Gosh, it's the best.)
The third duet match of Round One is over now.
As this is the 100 King Special,
all the contenders whose name ends with "king" gathered together.
Power Walking and Stocking.
Both the kings are here.
I guess you understood it just now, Stocking.
You are kind of a king too.
You're here as Stocking.
Who will be the real king of this match?
Shall we start with the king of biting remarks,
Gu Ra?
Frankly speaking,
- she did a better job than him. - Power Walking.
But Stocking is not like Minimum Wage...
who broke down that much earlier.
(What did you say?)
- He has something special? - Considering he's very sentimental,
he could be an actor.
- With a charming low voice? - Yes.
In Round Two, he could show a great performance...
based on that low voice.
I expect he could.
How was it, Kai?
I almost teared up...
because his innocent and sincere song touched my heart.
When I heard Power Walking singing, I remembered this.
When I visited my grandma when I was young,
I used a thick comforter in bed sometimes.
It was not as soft as silk,
but it was quite heavy and embraced me so warmly.
I felt something like that.
- You did? - Yes.
And as for Good-looking Stocking's singing,
it felt like I was touching wood grain.
- Wood grain? - Yes.
Wood grain.
Something like bamboo.
His voice like trembling bamboo leaves...
seemed to touch people's emotions deeply.
I think the innocence and purity...
are his charms that are different...
from what he looks.
I was 100 percent certain that Stocking...
wouldn't sing a ballad with that mask on,
but how can he sing it so nicely?
With the singing skill...
of an amateur, I think he touched us...
as much as a master would.
(Amazed)
What do you mean?
(Laughing)
It means just what he said.
Simply put, you mean he was not that good, but it was nice, right?
Exactly.
But it was not just nice.
You mean it was unsophisticated but touching?
It sounded unsophisticated,
but he kept his pace...
until the end.
I liked who he did that.
Once he started singing, he made us feel lethargic...
and happy as well.
How amazing a song can be when it can make us feel the both.
Also, his voice was purity itself,
and it was greatly attractive.
(Thank you.)
I thought of one person who can deliver his emotions...
very calmly like that.
When Gaeko of Dynamic Duo sings,
- Gaeko. - it feels like that.
I think he is an actor.
Kang Ha Neul...
Kang Ha Neul?
He'll be discharged from the military in May.
- In May? - Is he serving in the army?
- He'll be discharged in May? - Yes.
- I hope he'll be discharged safely. - He'll be in May.
(He hopes Ha Neul will be discharged safely.)
- In May. - Safe and sound.
Or he could be Jin Goo...
who has quite a low voice.
- Jin Goo. - I think he's an actor...
because he's really good at delivering his emotions.
When it comes to emotions, we can't leave Solji out.
In fact, when I just thought about their singing skills,
I have to admit that Power Waling was much better than Stocking,
but when I thought about emotions, it felt like..
Stocking's song was warmly permeating my heart,
which I liked a lot.
What about Power Walking?
First of all, her voice was very unique.
So at first, I thought she might be...
Lim Kim or Jane Jang.
Because of her diction,
I thought she might be.
But as time went on, I doubted that.
Actually, I was...
reminded of someone when I heard Power Walking.
You were?
It's someone whose voice would sound familiar to many people...
because of soundtracks of dramas. She's Elaine.
- Elaine. - Elaine.
I was first reminded of her voice.
But she seemed to be much more nervous than Elaine I know...
would be.
She could get nervous. She might be really Elaine.
The reasoning about both of them is not bad now.
First, I'll let you hear Power Walking's real voice.
It's Jin Sil who sang the soundtrack of the movie "The Man from Nowhere".
Let us hear it.
(The character shaves his head once again.)
(Is she safe at home?)
(It's like Jin Sil, the original singer is singing.)
- She's good. - She's so good.
She seems to be doing it casually, but she's good.
This is it.
- She's good. - Is she really Elaine?
Is she Elaine? No?
- She says she doesn't seem to be. - Why not?
Even when she sang someone else's songs,
I don't think she made that kind of gesture.
(The gesture looks different.)
There is one more thing to show with her real voice.
It's the sexiest song.
It's the song you would all recognize.
Sam Brown's "Stop".
(Power Sexy Walking)
(With her sexiness, she controls the MC.)
She sounds just like Sam Brown.
Sunwoo Jung A is perplexed now.
Is she Elaine or not?
This time,
Stocking, the singer with a charming low-pitched voice...
will do an impersonation.
Rapper Simon Dominic.
Please start. Simon Dominic.
Act like a noble man, Gu Ra.
- What? - "Act like a noble man."
What?
It just sounds like he's putting on an accent.
What did he say?
His voice is really nice.
Let us hear Simon Dominic's voice again.
Respect part-timers.
(My gosh, that's...)
(Respect part-timers.)
- That's it. - Isn't he similar?
He suddenly said, "Act like a noble man".
People liked the second one.
This time, he will impersonate actor Yoon Mun Sik.
He's going to be good.
I think he would be good.
He's quite funny.
Please impersonate Mun Sik.
You rude idiot.
He sounds like him. I love it.
He sounds like him.
"You rude idiot."
Doesn't he move like an idol?
I think he will impersonate this person very well too.
Choi Hong Man.
They both have low-pitched voice. Great.
So he likes that kind of voice.
Please impersonate fighter Choi Hong Man.
Hello, I am Choi Hong Man.
I am really happy to be on The King of Mask Singer. Thank you.
That's it.
I think he's not an actor.
- Is he not an actor? - He's not an actor.
His impersonation...
lacks details.
He sounds like a hip hop rapper...
in his 20s.
- A hip hop rapper in his 20s. - Yes. A rapper.
He does seem like a rapper.
He stands like one too.
He might be a rapper.
- A rapper. - I think he might be an idol.
- An idol. - I think he's in charge of...
rapping in an idol group.
Isn't that a too similar to my opinion?
Let's be open to possibilities.
Aren't they similar?
He's not a rapper who performs solo.
He might be an idol member.
He's a group member who is in charge of rapping.
(He might be someone with a rapper position.)
Among rappers,
- Among rappers. - there's someone called SUPERBEE.
(He doesn't know anything about hip hop.)
- No? - He's too tall.
Is he too tall?
(Is he a rapper who is a bit tall?)
Great.
I will announce the result of the third match of Round One.
Between the king of great voice Power Walking...
and the king of low-pitched voice Stocking,
who is the winner of the third match of Round One?
It will be revealed now.
(Power Walking had a charming husky voice...)
(and seemed experienced.)
(He had a warm low-pitched voice.)
(Stocking was armed with innocence.)
Who is the one and only king of singing?
The winner is...
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Which voice captured...)
(the panelists?)
Who made to Round Two?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is it?
(Genius Athlete Power Walking wins.)
Power Walking won.
Yes!
(Power Walking won.)
I knew it.
It's a shame.
Power Walking beat Stocking.
The result is 67 to 32.
Please move to the waiting room.
Please congratulate her with a round of applause.
(The identity of Stocking will be revealed shortly.)
Power Walking made to Round Two.
Please get excited for the next round.
Power!
Stocking's got the innocent charms,
and let's find out his identity.
I am so curious.
We will reveal his identity with a solo performance.
Please give it up for him.
(Stocking's identity will be revealed.)
(Is he a singer with a low-pitched voice?)
(Is he a rapper in his 20s?)
(Is he an idol? What is his identity?)
(It's the familiar acoustic melody.)
This song suits him well.
I love this song.
("Old Love" by Lee Moon Sae)
(His charming low-pitched voice...)
(is gently put on top of the lyrical melody.)
(Stocking's sentimental voice multiplies...)
(the lonely feeling of the original song.)
(Walking)
(We can picture his old love as if we're watching a play.)
Now,
Stocking, please take off your mask and reveal your identity.
(Screaming)
He is...
They are going crazy.
What's going on?
(Who is he?)
Please reveal your identity.
He is...
the rapper who is in the center of people's attention...
for his unrivaled voice and irreplaceable presence.
He is rapper Woo Won Jae.
(Who?)
No way.
Woo Won Jae.
(They guessed he's a rapper with a low-pitched voice.)
(But they never imagined Won Jae to sing.)
(It's killing me.)
(I love it so much.)
(It's incredible.)
(Now we can understand why he conveyed emotion so well.)
(Right. Right.)
(With lonely yet warm emotion,)
(his voice makes us reminisce the feeling of longing.)
(His plain singing method and low-pitched voice...)
(makes it more heartrending.)
(Singing "Old Love" with composite of emotions,)
(Won Jae was perfect as a vocalist too.)
(It's touching.)
- That was great. - That was so great.
I got emotional.
Please say hello to the viewers.
Hello. I am rapper Woo Won Jae. Hello.
(He's the hero of "Show Me the Money 6".)
(With his unique emotion and song lyrics,)
(his every performance had become a hit.)
(Thanks to his strong presence,)
(many people parodied him.)
(They used a 10-dollar bill and a dog to parody him.)
(His first single "We Are"...)
(dominated the music charts and award ceremonies.)
(He took off his trademark the hat,)
(and his good looks made him more popular than ever.)
(Beloved by AOMG family,)
(he's actively making music.)
(He's rapper Woo Won Jae, the young artist who thinks hard.)
Actually, the crew...
asked him to be a panelist.
But you asked them if you could be here...
as a masked singer.
- Yes. - So we gave him a mask.
He can come back then.
He can join us now.
- Was there a reason? - Yes.
I love The King of Mask Singer so much...
that I wanted to be on the show.
But I never made the right guess.
I knew I wasn't going to be a good panelist,
so I said I'd practice singing.
I see.
How was it? Did you get very nervous?
I came from an audition program, so I was a little confident.
I was nervous beyond reason.
I tried my best, but I shook a lot.
You shoot a lot.
I love his voice.
Another reason he decided to be on the show...
is because he is a big fan of one of the panelists.
Who is that?
For a long time...
Since I was young...
(He's been liking this person.)
Isn't it Solji?
I've been liking...
Shin Bong Sun very much.
He likes you.
- I've been liking her very much. - Me?
She was distracted.
- No way. - She was distracted.
(Really?)
Bong Sun is dying of happiness.
- She's truly happy. - Yes.
What about Bong Sun did you like?
I am not a funny man,
so I love watching comedy.
(What about Bong Sun did Won Jae like so much?)
(I'm just so happy.)
- She's showing dramatic reactions. - Oh, my gosh.
I've watched all of her shows such as "Gag Concert"...
since I was little. I've always been a fan.
Recently, people made a meme of her...
- "A shocking identity"? - "A shocking identity".
That pose.
I downloaded the meme.
Let's try it together!
You want to try it together?
All right, go ahead.
1, 2, 3!
(He looks very serious.)
(A shocking two shot)
Thank you.
You kept watching that meme?
I've watched it over 100 times.
- Over 100 times? - Yes, really.
Thank you so much.
He seems like an aloof guy, but he's cute.
I heard that there is...
a misunderstanding that you want to clear up on our show.
When I was on "Radio Star",
I was asked if I had a girlfriend,
and I got tripped up by it.
Do you have a girlfriend now?
(He took the bait that Gu Ra put out.)
Yes.
Oh, right.
But after that,
we broke up.
(Oh, boy.)
- I see. - I'm only 24 years old,
and I want to date again.
Everyone thinks I have a girlfriend.
Oh, I see. You wanted to clear that up.
Yes, I don't have a girlfriend.
All right, good.
You don't really get a chance to tell people that you broke up.
I've been waiting for this day.
We should've asked you.
Bong Sun is suddenly trembling now.
- Who? - Bong Sun.
- No, I'm not! - What are you talking about?
Don't be ridiculous.
What's wrong with that man?
He impressed everyone today with a performance...
as charming as his unique rapping style.
It was Woo Won Jae. Please give him a big hand!
Go, Won Jae! Great job today.
- Go, Won Jae! - Thank you.
(We'll be rooting for you.)
I practiced singing in a coin karaoke for over an hour,
but it was so frustrating.
So I rapped to blow off steam,
and as soon as I started rapping,
some fans suddenly came into my room.
- But not when you were singing? - No.
I seem to make a strong first impression,
and people think I wouldn't come on variety shows.
I wanted to show them that I also have different sides.
It feels like I broke some biases that people have on me today,
and it made me happy.
Good-looking Stocking was me, Woo Won Jae.
Thank you.
Genius Athlete, Power Walking defeated Woo Won Jae...
and moved on to Round Two.
The last match of Round One.
"Don't let Right King hear me sing."
Way to Go,
Left King!
(Way to Go, Left King)
(Flustered)
Don't be confused about whom you should vote for.
Pick me, Left King!
(I hope you'll enjoy my song.)
(Let's go, Left King.)
Oh, my goodness.
He's very burly.
He almost looks like a wrestler.
Let's meet his opponent.
"Don't let Left King hear me sing either."
Wow, Wow, Wow,
Right King!
(Wow, Wow, Wow, Right King)
I'll be the next masked king?
Wow!
(What am I if I sit on the right?)
(You're Right King!)
(Surprised)
He's very sturdy too.
(A match between two kings)
(Which king will the audience choose?)
(Left King who's big enough to protect them?)
(Or Right King who will wow them?)
(This familiar melody is...)
("Love Two" by Yoon Do Hyun)
(Right King starts singing with a tough man's voice.)
(He slowly starts to express his sensibility as a rocker.)
(Left King's beautiful voice spreads out softly.)
(Unlike his big build,)
(Left King carefully expresses his delicate feelings.)
(Making an heart)
(While Right King has a strong, manly voice,)
(Left King has a mellow voice.)
(A harmonious performance made by two very different men)
(Did she get a cramp out of excitement?)
("Love Two" by Left King and Right King, men of different charms)
(That was wonderful.)
They have great voices.
(It was overwhelming.)
I haven't listened to this song in so long.
I used to listen to it a lot when I was in college.
The last match...
of Round One is now over.
Young Seok, what did you think of the last performance?
After listening to them sing the first 16 measures,
I realized that both of them are the people...
who sang a song that I wrote.
- Really? - Finally,
I can name both of them.
- Both of them? - Yes.
- Finally? - Tell us who they are.
- You recognized both of them? - Even just one of them.
Right King sang the beginning of the first verse.
- He's obviously Hong Kyung Min. - Hong Kyung Min?
- Right King? - The Ricky Martin of Korea.
When I heard his vibrato,
I thought, "Kyung Min is finally here."
You thought so?
For our 200th episode.
Who's Left King then?
- Left King is... - Left King.
Until the 16th measure, I thought...
he was Kim Jang Hoon.
- Kim Jang Hoon? - Yes.
So it's Hong Kyung Min versus Kim Jang Hoon?
You don't still think so, do you?
I changed my mind after listening to the second verse.
Oh, I see.
But he really sounded like Jang Hoon at first.
The way he sang and his voice were similar to Jang Hoon's.
(Just like Kim Jang Hoon who softly sings rock music,)
(Left King started singing with a gentle voice.)
(He's got to be Kim Jang Hoon.)
- You thought he was Jang Hoon? - He sounded like Jang Hoon.
But Right King began...
to sing in a tough way in the latter part.
So I don't think...
he's Hong Kyung Min.
- Left King seems to be... - Left King?
about 190cm tall.
Only athletes have bodies like that.
Athletes?
I think Left King is...
left-handed.
- Left-handed? - That's right.
Left-handed?
He's a left-handed pitcher...
- A left-handed pitcher? - who recently retired.
Is that right?
- He's Bong Jung Keun. - Bong Jung Keun?
Right King seems shocked.
- He's surprised. - I know.
"Left King is Bong Jung Keun?"
- I guess he's a fan of Jung Keun. - Right King is surprised.
- "Is he Bong Jung Keun?" - I think...
he's a fan of LG Twins.
- "Is he Bong Jung Keun for real?" - I'm sure it's him.
Shake hands.
- Shake hands, guys. - They're...
There you go.
(Go for it, Jung Keun.)
He's sending him a sign of good luck.
I'm going to throw a nice strike...
through this guess this time.
(Will Gu Ra's guess turn out right?)
I've approached in a different direction.
While a lot of the panelists are guessing it'd be Jung Keun,
I've sensed the sentiments...
of an actor from him.
A tall actor who's acted a king...
many times.
Thus, my guess is Lee Tae Gon.
Lee Tae Gon?
Doesn't it sound plausible?
He's fishing right now.
He's not working.
Good.
What do you think, So Hyang?
When I first heard the voice of Right King,
I wondered if he was Hong Kyung Min.
- Hong Kyung Min? - Yes, that was my first guess.
But in the second verse,
I started to be confused...
because Kyung Min has this particular sound of a rocker...
- in his voice. - That's right.
Right King's voice didn't sound like it.
I was confused if he changed his voice or not.
Here's what I think.
When I heard the later part of the performance.
There's this former musical actor...
who's doing great in dramas these days.
His name is Jang Seung Jo.
- He's so cool. - Jang Seung Jo.
Lina's husband.
I was reminded of him.
A lot of people are mentioning Hong Kyung Min,
but such a singing style is...
like that of those Japanese rockers...
in the 80s and 90s.
So I'd like to say, "Go for it, Kyung Min."
(He's so funny.)
- He's Hong Kyung Min for certain. - And...
I think he's going to make it to the finals today.
That's my careful opinion.
What about Left King?
I agree that he'd be an athlete.
An athlete with such a physique...
- could be Jang Jae Keun. - Jang Jae Keun?
- I'd like to... - The sprinter.
shout out his name in a while.
It's time to watch a few of their specialties.
Left King is up first.
He's going to open bottles.
(He'll open bottles with various tools.)
He might be great at it.
People open soda bottles often in baseball stadiums.
Is that right?
You may take off your gloves.
(Left King tries to take off his gloves.)
Take off your gloves.
Right King is staring at his hands to see if it's really Jung Keun.
To see if he's really a baseball player.
Good.
He's going to open one with a tuna can first.
- All right. - A tuna can.
Left King is an expert in opening bottles.
(How good is he?)
Do it.
(Opening)
What a nice sound.
That was clean.
How refreshing.
It's a pot lid this time.
- A pot lid. - He's going to open a bottle...
with a pot lid.
Do it.
(Opening)
(There he goes.)
(Fascinated)
This led is crushed.
He might open one barehanded at this rate.
- It's a high heel. - A high heel.
Not many people do it with a high heel.
1, 2, 3.
(Opening)
- Good. - Goodness.
He's doing it without a hitch.
- Try it with a frying pan. - A frying pan.
A frying pan. This isn't going to be easy.
He'll open one with that frying pan.
2, 3.
(Opening)
Goodness.
- Great. - Goodness.
(What a perfect ending.)
He must've done this many times before.
He's the best.
It's Right King's turn this time.
He's going to show you the Park Bo Gum dance.
Bo Gum danced in a similar outfit which became a talk of the town.
Right King is going to do the cover dance.
Music, please.
(Park Bo Gum's Boombastic Dance)
(Dancing)
He's good.
(It's awesome.)
Goodness.
(It's as if he's become Park Bo Gum.)
It's charming.
(Go ahead and fall for me.)
(We've already fallen for you.)
(This is my turf.)
He's good.
Bo Gum must be surprised if he watches this.
- I've seen it. - Seen what?
He was supposed to do it like this, but he kept going sideways.
(He went more and more to the side.)
(Did he?)
- That's from your conception. - I saw it.
- I saw him do it. - That's your conception.
He went sideways.
His dance looked like this in your eyes...
because you thought he was Hong Kyung Min.
This is why conception is so frightening.

Who will be the winner?

There will be only one king in both sides.

(The identity of Left King will be revealed soon.)
I won! Goodness.
A lot of names were mentioned about his identity.
Let's check his face...
along with his solo performance. Give him a round of applause.
(His identity will be revealed with his solo performance.)
(Is he Lee Tae Gon?)
(Or is he an athlete?)
("Rose" by April and May)
Gosh.
Oh, gosh.
(The audience gets immersed in his soft voice.)
- I used to love this song. - Me too.
I haven't heard this song for a long time.
Now, Left King, please take off your mask...
and reveal your identity.
He is...
Who is he?
(He opens his eyes wide.)
(Is Gu Ra's guess right?)
Reveal your identity.
He is...
the first generation major leaguer...
and the eternal ace of LG Twins. He's Bong Jung Keun.
(His guess turns out to be right.)
- I knew it. - It's him.
See how accurate I am?
You really are.
(Awesome)
He's good at singing.
(He performs hard with a bright smile on his face.)
(I'm a blooming rose.)
(He's very big.)
He's 190cm.
(His performance was beautiful like a rose.)
(Bong Jung Keun! You're amazing!)
(What a heartwarming performance it was.)
He's such a good singer.
His voice is so fragrant.
Hello, everyone.
I'm a sports commentator and a TV personality, Bong Jung Keun.
(Bong Jung Keun was one of the best closers in Korea.)
(His excellent control of the ball...)
(led Korea to victory.)
(He successfully made a pickoff throw against Ichiro...)
(and got a nickname, Dr. Bong.)
(He is actually Korea's 1st generation major leaguer.)
(He's the 15th player ever to have accomplished 100 saves.)
(He's a living legend of LG Twins.)
(After retirement in 2018, he debuted as a commentator.)
(Bong Jung Keun is about to begin the 2nd chapter of his life.)
People recognized you very early.
Gu Ra made me sweat a lot.
He flustered you.
It looks like...
you always hold the microphone with your left hand...
and you opened the bottle with your left hand earlier.
It was very hard for me to change their mind.
If you opened the bottle with your right hand,
I would have said you were right-handed.
I got very nervous.
After rehabilitation abroad,
I used to watch The King of Mask Singer.
I cried many times, watching the performances.
This show has been a great support to me.
So I couldn't believe I was going to appear in the show.
I'm left-handed...
and you nicknamed me Left King.
It means a lot to me.
I'm always frowning...
when I play baseball.
As I concentrate on the game,
I look very scary...
on television.
I almost look like I'm in a battle.
Because I'm always frowning on television,
people are scared of me.
But you're not a scary person.
Exactly. I'm a very innocent man.
(Chuckling)
So I wanted to show you...
the new side of me.
- I see. - That's how I decided to be here.
I see. You can't help frowning when focusing on the game.
It's a battle after all.
Because of his build,
I agreed with others.
But if it weren't for his build,
I wouldn't have guessed...
that he was an athlete.
His voice reflects his sensibility.
(His voice reflects his sensibility.)
- I see. - Thank you.
Lee Chun Soo appeared in the show as well.
He appeared in this show to make a fresh start...
and I recognized him too.
(No, you didn't.)
(You said he was Lee Bong Ju, not Lee Chun Soo.)
As you said earlier,
he gives out a very nice impression.
So please relax...
and enjoy being a commentator and appearing on TV shows.
Then I'm sure many people will see...
the true color of yours.
I root for the second chapter of your life.
Thank you.
- Go, Jung Keun! - He's going to be quite busy.
Today,
he stood on the mound of The King of Mask Singer...
and pitched a strike into everyone's heart.
Now Jung Keun is making a fresh start.
- Please give it up for him! - Go, Jung Keun!
Thank you. Thank you.
(We will see you again.)
It was a bit disappointing.
I didn't expect them to say my very name.
I got a little disappointed.
As Right King heard my name, "Bong Jung Keun",
he made a certain gesture.
It was such a meaningful moment to me.
If he doesn't mind,
I'd like to hang out with him one day.
Right King, keep it up.
(Next week)
(A fierce war to become the 100th masked king)
(An aggressive and shocking competition)
(They are powerful and competitive.)
(A feast of shocking performances)
(The strong contestants threaten the masked king.)
(The masked king desperately fights against them.)
(Who is going to be the 100th masked king?)
(It will be revealed next week.)
