Previously on King of Mask Singer.
(She had the strong voice that never gets shaken.)
(The marvelous parade of Nightingale's high-pitched voice...)
(was unrivaled.)
(With magic-like singing that touched our hearts,)
(this masked singer beat Nightingale and became the new masked king.)
(Genie became the 106th King of Mask Singer.)
(Jumping)
(He became the talk of the town all day.)
(His video became a big hit in the shortest amount of time.)
(What magic will Genie show us today?)
(With just voice alone, the masked singers will write...)
(the drama with a great twist.)
The mysterious music show, King of Mask Singer.
(We can't wait to see it.)
(Hello.)
(Soo Bin and EXY of WJSN)
Genie is going for his second victory.
Who will be the last person to survive and become his rival?
Let's begin the first match...
of Round One, duet competition.
(It beings right now.)
(King of Mask Singer)
This is the first match of Round One.
There's no retreat in my performance.
I Still Have 12 Songs to Sing,
Invincible Turtle Ship.
(I Still Have 12 Songs to Sing, Invincible Turtle Ship)
Don't tell the masked king...
that I am on King of Mask Singer.
(Follow me.)
(Yes, General.)
He's got the best name.
(He's excited.)
Contending against him is this masked singer.
Put your hands up. Do you know who I am?
I am a candidate for masked king.
Give Me All Your Votes, Undefeated Pirate Ship.
(Give Me All Your Votes, Undefeated Pirate Ship)
I will take over King of Mask Singer today.
(Give me all your votes.)
(Go, Pirate Ship.)
It's Turtle Ship versus Pirate Ship.
Pirate Ship is not supposed to beat Turtle Ship.
(Laughing)
What do I do? I'm so nervous.
(Turtle Ship and Pirate Ship are the two strong ships on the sea.)
(They will fight each other head-on on the stage.)
(Only one person will win.)
(He knows no defeat. Will Invincible Turtle Ship win?)
(He's the outlaw of the sea. Will Undefeated Pirate Ship win?)
("Like Rain Like Music" by Kim Hyun Shik)
It rains
(His voice is rough yet soft.)
(Thinking about the woman who left him,)
(he exudes endless sorrow.)
Bravo.
(His voice is sweet and mellow.)
(The night we were breaking up,)
(it was raining forlornly.)
(They are touched.)
(The two masked singers' song touches everyone's heart.)
(House Band)
(Our love which now became a memory...)
(is like a beautiful poem.)
(Their "Like Rain Like Music" made us all emotional.)
(The two masked singers' sentimental song echoed in our hearts.)
(The feeling lingers deep in our hearts.)
(That was incredible.)
The duet competition of Round One.
The first match ended.
He's the man of great sentiments. Young Seok?
It was such a great performance.
One person was a protagonist and the other person was an antagonist.
Turtle Ship has the voice...
of an angel-like character.
Pirate Ship is just like his name.
(Pirate Ship is the villain character.)
Did he have the voice of a villain?
He had the voice of a villain.
Pirate Ship's voice was hoarse and husky.
It was very charming.
When you finish watching a film,
you remember the villain's performance.
That's what happened with his performance.
He was very impactful.
His voice was memorable.
I don't know about other things,
but I can tell which of the two singers is older.
I am very certain about it.
- Is that right? - It's because he's a doctor.
- Hye Geol said this. - Right.
The way he's standing is... The angle of the vertebra is...
Pirate Ship's got a slightly bent spine.
- Spine. - It's slightly bent, isn't it?
It's collapsed. He has a fat belly.
- That's why I am... - That's why...
more attracted to Pirate Ship.
I think he's in his late 40s or older.
- He's in his late 40s or older. - Yes.
- Could he be in his 50s? - That's possible.
He can even be in his 50s.
I have never seen someone making such a deduction.
It looks like men and women...
definitely have different sentiment and points of view.
- Do they? - I agree.
I like Admiral Yi,
so I preferred Turtle Ship from the beginning.
And his performance perfectly suited women's sentiment.
It was a great performance.
I'm not saying I don't like Pirate Ship.
- I see. - Based on his performance,
Pirate Ship doesn't seem to be a professional singer.
Given his dark skin,
I assume he lacks protein.
- He lacks protein? - Yes.
What about him? Is he healthy?
Turtle Ship seems to be well-nourished in general.
I suppose he's a singer...
who is in his mid-30s.
- You think he's in his mid-30s. - Yes, that's how I think.
The two of you...
are of great help to us today.
I saw something interesting.
When Esther was...
pressing the button,
she was aiming the remote control at the front.
She was?
(When the vote starts,)
(everyone secretly casts their vote.)
(I'll vote too.)
(Hopefully, the signal reaches there.)
(She aimed the remote control at the screen.)
As if an old lady turning on a television.
- Exactly. - As if she turns on a TV.
(She showed her habit before she knew.)
Let's hear the experts' opinions. Hyun Chul?
The way I see it,
Pirate Ship's performance was great too.
He seems to have been born with a raspy voice.
I'm thinking this might not be his first time being on this show.
You seem to have someone in mind.
He's an actor and a singer.
Could you tell us what his initials are?
L.
L is useless.
That means his family name is Lee.
- L... - LGG.
LGG?
- Lee Gyeong Gyu? - He mentioned an actor named LGG.
He just has put Lee Gyeong Gyu on the table.
He mentioned Lee Gyeong Gyu.
- Lee Yoon Seok is... - Who else could it be?
- Has he released an album? - shivering.
(Who is Pirate Ship, whose initials are possibly LGG?)
LGG.
Personally, Turtle Ship seems to be a professional singer...
and Pirate Ship doesn't.
To me, he doesn't seem to have...
the generosity as a professional singer.
He's going to win. There's no doubt about it.
- He'll move on to the next round. - Do you think so?
Turtle Ship will win without a doubt?
He seems to be a seasoned singer who is as experienced...
as Shin Hye Sung at least.
It must have been about 20 years since he debuted.
But he doesn't seem to be very considerate of his opponent.
(He's inconsiderate of his opponent, who is a non-professional.)
- Was the match too one-sided? - Yes.
- It wasn't that bad. - It wasn't.
You'll see. I think the result will be...
either 7 to 3 or 8 to 2.
That's what I think.
Now, let's see their specialties now.
First, Pirate Ship...
will let you hear his real voice.
He'll imitate Tae Jin Ah singing "La Song".
He's got this raspy voice that is perfect for "La Song".
(It's Rain and Tae Jin Ah's famous duet song.)
(How will Pirate Ship imitate Tae Jin Ah's voice?)
Please let us hear how Tae Jin Ah sings "La Song".
(La la la)
(Surprised)
(He sounds just like him.)
(Singing)
(Ok Kyung)
(It's not over yet.)
He's got a good voice.
(He shouts the name at the top of his voice.)
Eru!
- That's a wrap. Thank you. - He has a very loud voice.
His voice is very similar...
to Comedian Hwang Gi Sun,
who is a senior comedian to me.
His voice reminded me of another comedian, Choi Byung Suh.
Choi Byung Suh?
I think he can show us some more.
No one knows who you are. Show us some more.
All right. It's Turtle Ship's turn now.
He prepared some dance moves...
that make you a cool person.
Please play the music.
(Music starts.)
(It's the popular dance moves even BTS used in their choreography.)
(What will Turtle Ship's dance moves be like?)
(Adorable)
(Exhilarated)
(His moves are somewhat gentle.)
This is the move.
This is the famous move.
(Turtle Ship is one of the cool people.)
(He dances slowly like a turtle.)
(Dancing hard)
(He flounders at the maximum speed.)
- He's so cool. - He's in his 50s.
(His dance moves give off somewhat old-fashioned vibes.)
- That's a wrap. - Is he a good dancer or not?
Those were the popular dance moves many people do these days.
We have the members of WJSN today as our guest.
What do you think?
To start with, he doesn't seem to be an idol singer.
I see. You're sure that he's not an idol singer.
He's not good at dancing,
but he's got the sense of rhythm.
I have been watching him...
and he seems to be very expressive.
- He was doing things like this. - He's very expressive?
He could be one of the senior idol singers.
- He's a first-generation idol? - Yes.
- A senior idol singer. - Just like Gu Ra said earlier.
Now, Pirate Ship is going...
to show his specialty.
For King of Mask Singer shoot,
he hurriedly learned b-boying.
- Oh. - Goodness.
Here's the breakdance that was half-learned.
(Half-learned breakdance)
Are you ready? Cue the music now.
(Here goes the dance.)
Very nice.
Good.
(He runs around the whole stage with light steps.)
What a jaunty move.
Very good.
(Here I go!)
(Laughing)
(He would love to flip two and a half times.)
(This move is still in progress.)
He hasn't learned the whole thing yet.
(Laughing)
There goes the move.
(He can do it this time.)
(My knees hurt.)
That's a wrap.
That was funny.
I know who he is now.
Who is he?
Should I say his initials?
Bong Sun, you figured out who he is?
He's one of my juniors.
Really?
- Is he? - Yes.
You can tell that from his b-boying?
- Yes. - Really?
Should I say his initials?
- Initials? - Yes.
- Initials? - You know what?
Seong Ju looks uninterested.
I think you're wrong.
- I'm wrong? - Yes. Who is it? Tell us.
- Han Min Kwan. - Han Min Kwan?
- He's very skinny indeed. - Comedian Han Min Kwan?
When he lifted his leg like this,
his skinny legs were exposed.
- That was the conclusive hint. - But most importantly,
does Min Kwan sing that well?
Min Kwan does have a husky voice.
Han Min Kwan. 52kg.
Comedian Han Min Kwan.
Min Kwan and I are the same type of celebrity.
Han Min Kwan is skinny, Lee Yoon Seok is skinny,
and Kim Gook Jin is skinny.
No matter how many layers of clothing they wear,
they're skinnier than him.
You have to at least be able to cross your legs like this.
Your legs are almost twisted.
I'm very comfortable now.
He's too overweight to be Min Kwan.
- Too overweight to be Min Kwan. - Yes.
He should work out more.
Min Kwan is skinnier than that.
Could he be Comedian Han Min Kwan? You should think about it.
Now, I will announce...
the result of the first match of Round One.
The difference in the number of votes the two received was five.
What?
I'm not surprised.
Still, Turtle Ship is the winner, right?
(Laughing)
Of course he is.
Between Invincible Turtle Ship...
and Undefeated Pirate Ship,
who is the winner of the first match of Round One?
Let's find out now!
(Singing with his mellow sentiment,)
(Turtle Ship boasted his gentleness.)
(He's got a powerful husky voice.)
(Pirate Ship's manly voice echoed powerfully.)
What was the panelists' choice?
Who is the winner to move on to Round Two?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Who will sail farther to Round Two?)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is the winner?
Turtle Ship is the winner!
(He's truly invincible!)
(Turtle Ship is the best.)
(Undefeated Pirate Ship's 1st defeat)
The score is 52 to 47.
- Turtle Ship won. - That was very close.
Please give him a round of applause.
Turtle Ship, you may go to the waiting room now...
and get ready for the next round.
I still have 11 songs to sing.
I promise you a great performance in Round Two.
Sadly, we must say goodbye to Pirate Ship now. We will reveal...
his identity with a solo performance prepared for Round Two.
Please give it up for him!
(Pirate Ship's got a slightly bent spine.)
(He lacks protein as well?)
(Is he Comedian LGG?)
(Is he Comedian Han Min Kwan?)
("Under the Sky" by Kim Min Jong)
(He calmly sings a song of loneliness.)
(He has loneliness in his voice.)
(He faces the emptiness alone...)
(and lets out his feelings.)
(He calmly sends his warm consolation.)
Now, Pirate Ship, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(Surprised)
He is...
(Who is he?)
Pirate Ship, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
He is the comedian with his well-known weakling character...
and a professional race car driver,
Han Min Kwan!
(It really was Han Min Kwan!)
(I was right!)
Unbelievable!
(I was right, Gu Ra.)
All right.
(Proud)
He has put on so much weight.
(It's hard to believe how well he can sing.)
("Under the Sky" by Han Min Kwan, a touching performance)
(That was wonderful.)
(Cheering)
He's a great singer.
I wasn't entirely sure it was him.
Bong Sun, you were right.
Oh, my gosh.
Please say hello to our viewers.
Hello, I'm Han Min Kwan, a comedian and a race car driver.
It's great to see you.
- All right. - Hello, everyone.
(Call me if you want to become a star.)
(He's a natural-born comedian who always makes people laugh.)
(The inventor of the weak man's slapstick comedy)
(He's now working as a race car driver.)
(He even won the Superrace Championship.)
(Han Min Kwan, the bold racer in the world of comedy)
- You're such a good singer. - Right.
I think my singing skills improved a bit while preparing for this show.
- Really? - Because I kept practicing.
You almost made it to Round Two.
Gosh, I was really surprised.
You were very close.
He's a good singer.
They thought you were an actor or a singer at first,
but Bong Sun recognized you at the end.
I thought he was an actor who's done a lot of theater acting...
because he was very expressive.
But when he showed us...
some breakdance moves,
he curled up like this. It looked similar to what he does...
when he mimics a chihuahua.
- A chihuahua. - Really?
- You can mimic a chihuahua? - When I saw that move,
I knew he was Min Kwan.
Could you show us the mimicry?
- Let's see how similar it is. - When I was...
auditioning to become a comedian,
I passed because of this mimicry.
I guess the judges liked it.
I'll be a chihuahua you can see through the glass.
You should do some acting too.
"This chihuahua looks so cute."
A passer-by?
I need you to do this.
All right. Gosh, how cute!
I'd love to touch this chihuahua.
Knock, knock, knock.
(Surprised)
Knock, knock, knock.
(Raising his head)
He does look like a chihuahua.
His dance move looked like that.
Knock, knock, knock.
- You passed the audition with this. - Yes.
I see.
Many people should see that.
All right. We asked you to write your goal in our show,
and you wrote that you want people to know how you're doing these days.
- Yes. - No one has written such a thing.
One of my neighbors often asks me why I don't appear on...
- any TV shows now. - Oh, your neighbor?
I came on this show...
- to show her that I still do. - For your neighbor,
- not your family? - She often asks you that?
Yes. Also,
I had a great time while preparing for this show.
She will now say, "I enjoyed your performance on that show."
Don't you also work as a race car driver?
Yes, you're working as a professional race car driver.
That's right. I was the season champion in 2016,
and I got second place in 2017.
I also won the last competition I entered.
- Gosh. - He has won many competitions.
You might have hoped for a better result here,
but it wasn't so bad, right?
- I can't be happier. - I see.
He can't be happier.
When Gu Ra was talking earlier,
I wanted to cut in and say that...
it would be a close match.
I'm regretting that I didn't.
Min Kwan's vibrato is as good as that of a singer.
That's right.
Gosh.
He's going to release an album soon.
You didn't know you were that good, right?
I don't know if they're giving me false expectations.
- Should I release an album? - Take some time off from racing.
I can actually see him...
being swayed by these compliments even from here.
- You have your famous catchphrase. - Yes.
We've got to hear that.
Let's hear it.
You want to become the King of Mask Singer that badly?
If you want to become the King of Mask Singer,
give me a call.
(He's the best.)
He's so funny.
With his solid voice hidden behind his image...
as a weakling,
he surprised everyone today. It was Han Min Kwan.
- Please give him a big hand! - Great job!
Thank you.
I'm actually not so happy with my own voice,
but Young Seok told me such good things.
He said he liked my husky voice.
It definitely made me more confident.
I think I'll be releasing an album soon.
Please look forward to it.
(Laughing)
Give Me All Your Votes,
Undefeated Pirate Ship was me,
Han Min Kwan.
Please keep supporting me.
This is the result of Round One.
I Still Have 12 Songs to Sing,
Invincible Turtle Ship defeats Han Min Kwan...
and advances to Round Two.
The second match of Round One.
Who needs to be filled up with sensibility?
Please Fill up with Sensibility,
Sentimental Gas Station!
(Please Fill up with Sensibility, Sentimental Gas Station)
I will fill you up with sensibility.
(Let me pour some sensibility into you.)
(Fill it up, please.)
Who is that cutie?
Is he a newbie?
He seems nervous.
He looks cute.
Let's meet his opponent.
I don't know what you like, so I just got everything.
Are You Asleep, Masked King?
Come to Music Convenience Store!
(Are You Asleep, Masked King? Come to Music Convenience Store)
Are you hungry for music?
Come to Music Convenience Store.
(It's always open.)
(Shall we enjoy some music?)
That's a woman.
Wait, is that a man?
I think that's a male singer.
(They're giving something to the audience.)
(Take some free wet wipes.)
(Eat a rice ball when you're hungry.)
He's giving them rice balls.
I want one too.
(A match between two places that music fans would love to visit)
(Whose voice...)
(will touch the audience's hearts?)
(Sentimental Gas Station full of sensibility?)
(Music Convenience Store where you can enjoy music 24 hours a day?)
("Musical" by Im Sang A)
(They're moving up and down from the beginning.)
This is an unexpected choice of song.
(Music Convenience Store starts the song with her clear voice.)
(It was a woman.)
(The song excites everyone from the start.)
Her voice sounds familiar.
(I have to be the one)
(Who controls my life)
(Sentimental Gas Station sings powerfully with his high voice.)
(Amazed)
(He's a talented singer.)
(His powerful voice will drive away the summer heat.)
Who is it?
(No one will live your life)
(On your behalf)
We've got a rocker in the house.
(Bouncing)
(How exciting!)
(As if they're watching a concert,)
(the audience lets themselves to the familiar melody.)
(The two masked singers' harmony is exciting and unconstrained.)
(Their performance is full of passion until the end.)
(A concert that made people bounce their shoulders, "Musical"...)
(by Sentimental Gas Station and Music Convenience Store)
(It exploded with excitements!)
Sentimental Gas Station is a rocker indeed.
Their voices sound so familiar.
It's driving me crazy.
The second match of Round One has come to an end.
The two masked singers performed together,
but it was like they were singing different songs.
Their voices have different charms.
Yoon Sang, how did you like it?
Like you just mentioned,
their voices didn't quite go well with each other.
Is that so? I see.
Most of all, Sentimental Gas Station...
seemed like he owned Music Convenience Store.
I see.
So he runs a gas station and a convenience store.
That's funny.
Music Convenience Store seemed like she was a part-timer.
Right.
That's the best way to put it.
Did the two seem like a boss and a part-timer?
It'd be harsh on her for me to say this,
but it was like she was backing her boss up.
She didn't get to grab the moments...
where she could stand out until the end.
On the other hand,
Sentimental Gas Station showed off everything...
through the performance.
His biggest characteristic is...
- a hoarse voice. - I see.
He used it naturally when he sang high notes...
so that the audience wouldn't feel uncomfortable with it.
It's something that's hard even for singers unless they're skilled.
I see.
His voice sounded a bit like that of Park Sang Min.
Park Sang Min?
I think I should figure out who this singer is.
Yes, you should.
You better know who he is.
If the two masked singers go to a karaoke room,
Music Convenience Store would have a much wider repertoire.
- She'd have a wider repertoire? - Yes.
She'd be able to pull off...
so many genres from pop songs to trot songs.
She'd have no problem singing those songs...
because her voice goes well...
with any kinds of genres.
- She seems to be very cheerful too. - Right.
She seems to be bright and cheery.
It's quite tricky to sing to the rhythm of this song,
but she did such a good job.
I was surprised,
and she had a sense of confidence along with a sense of rhythm.
She's got good senses.
Her voice sounded unstable at times,
but her excitement completely covered for it.
I thought her voice was charming enough...
to make the audience smile.
It was a little unstable,
but her pronunciation was clear.
I was suddenly reminded of traffic reports,
weather forecasts,
or something similar.
I thought she might be someone who works in that field.
(Music Convenience Store is suspected to be a weather caster.)
Let me add a little to Ho Young's opinion.
- Kai. - Her voice was...
full of pleasant energy.
I thought she'd be someone who makes people happy.
Kai and Ho Young have given a lot of compliments...
towards Music Convenience Store.
But the others cannot agree with them at all.
- Goodness. - I heard someone sing...
solely with her throat in years.
- Is that right? - Yes.
After a long time.
(Chuckling)
In that sense, I have someone in mind.
- You do? - Yes.
I'm guessing it'd be Jang Young Ran.
- Jang Young Ran? - She seemed a little like her.
(The panelists show different responses.)
He has a point in some sense.
Bong Sun guessed one right, so I've got to do it too.
Bong Sun and I are competing with each other today.
- I see. - This is unbelievable.
Jang Young Ran.
I'm with Kai and Ho Young...
in terms of sentiments.
I personally think...
people who are poor at singing choose to sing "Musical"...
when they're in an exciting mood.
I agree.
Don't be too straightforward and tell her she's poor at singing.
This could cause misunderstanding.
- Please be careful. - I mean...
That's not it.
It's like a non-gourmet goes to a Michelin-starred restaurant...
and has no idea if its food is delicious.
Yoon Sang complimented Sentimental Gas Station...
for his singing ability,
but I wasn't impressed much to hear him sing.
So I'd like to give more points...
for the cheerful Music Convenience Store...
whom Kai mentioned.
Neither of them was good at singing in my ears anyway.
- Neither of them was good enough. - I mean...
- How everyone feels... - He suddenly...
- could be different. - got criticized for nothing.
She's something.
- And... - Well, it's her personal opinion.
It's her preference.
Could you sing a little bit of "Musical" for us then?
How should you do to make it exciting?
Show me the lyrics.
She's unstoppable.
You didn't think she'd do it, did you?
Esther, don't do it.
It's always her husband who's anxious.
(Hye Geol is always anxious.)
Goodness gracious.
All right. 1, 2, 3, 4.
(Leave my life alone)
(Feeling dizzy)
So that's how a good singer does it.
(Out of tempo)
Why is it suddenly getting fast?
- To my own world - Sing to the rhythm, will you?
(She's like a magician on the beat.)
- We've got to beat time. - Where I can live as I want
(Well, we'll keep the beat by clapping.)
(I want to be born again)
All right.
(Her excitement is beyond the average of others.)
That's how you should sing.
That's how you should sing to be a good singer.
She should come out as a masked singer someday.
(Please come again as a masked singer.)
(Feeling dizzy)
It's time to check their specialties.
Let's start with Sentimental Gas Station.
He's going to let you hear his real voice...
by giving impersonations.
First, it's actor Lee Sung Min.
- Lee Sung Min. - Gosh, Lee Sung Min?
- It's not easy to mimic his voice. - Please start.
I told you that much,
so shouldn't you deal with it on your own?
(Amazed)
(He successfully impersonates...)
(Lee Sung Min's unique way of talking mixed with dialect.)
All right.
(That was detailed.)
How detailed.
The beginning sounded very similar.
This time, he'll impersonate the voice...
- of actor Choi Min Sik. - Let's make this one funny.
Go ahead and start.
Your chief...
lives in Namcheon-dong, doesn't he?
Punk, I had a meal...
with your chief yesterday.
I went to a sauna with him too. I did all kinds of stuff with him.
- All right. - That was funny.
(There's no reason to say it sounded differently.)
He's good at stressing details.
Check if he's the one you have in mind.
(What's the identity of Sentimental Gas Station?)
This time, it's Music Convenience Store's turn.
She's going to impersonate the voice of Yeo Esther,
who's sitting with the other panelists right now.
What?
(Hye Geol is surprised.)
You two could be acquaintances.
- Please listen carefully. - Okay.
Please start.
(She is an outspoken person with her dignified way of talking.)
(She's honest and even transparent.)
(How will Music Convenience Store impersonate her voice?)
Why would you put it that way, Gu Ra?
I think you've hit your climacterium.
I often heard of this voice in dramas.
You keep saying I'm talkative,
but you're getting more and more talkative too.
You have to work less if you want to overcome your climacterium.
Think about retiring.
- All right. - Oh my goodness.
She's Jang Young Ran.
(She's overly excited to see someone impersonating her voice.)
That was no impersonation.
It was more like she read out loud what was written.
What do you think, Esther?
- No. - Did it sound like your voice?
I think it's someone who adores me.
- Well... Jin Kyung? - Who?
What are you doing?
What's wrong with you? Calm down, honey.
- Calm down. - Is it not Jin Kyung?
- You mean, the actress? - If it sounded like your voice...
Yes, the actress.
I don't think she's Jin Kyung.
Do you think it was similar to your voice?
Here's the reason why I said that. On the internet, I found...
that Actress Jin Kyung...
was trying to imitate my voice in a drama.
So was her voice similar to yours or not?
She just says whatever she wants to say.
- Well... - I asked you if it's similar.
The answer should be either yes or no.
Why does your answer start with "because"?
Her voice and way of speaking weren't that similar to mine,
but when she said "more and more",
I could feel...
that she observed me well.
I see. She might be someone who knows Esther well.
Now,
Music Convenience Store will show you another specialty.
A girl group's dance.
Some are saying she might be an actress.
Cue the music.
(The music starts.)
("Up and Down" by EXID, a song with sexy choreography)
(Music Convenience Store will dance to this?)
(She starts with a sexy move.)
(Impressed)
(She suddenly starts writing her name with her bottom?)
(Let's go!)
(Stiff)
(Amazingly, she insists this is the choreography of "Up and Down".)
Watch her carefully.
See if she is an experienced dancer...
or she has learned it only recently.
(Excuse me. Where are rice balls?)
She's very confident.
- Is that all she does? - She seems to know...
this choreography very well.
(Is she in a training school?)
(She dances like a disciplined soldier.)
That's a wrap.
(Salute.)
- Well done. - She's cute.
(Her specialty confuses us even more.)
Could you give us more hints?
She's shy, but she does it anyway.
- She does it anyway. - She must be an actress.
She's an actress.
Could she be Lee Si Young?
(He carefully mentions Lee Si Young.)
Lee Si Young?
She looks like she can be Lee Si Young.
I see.
Now, I will announce...
the result of the second match of Round One.
We have...
a surprising result.
You guys are very determined.
We're ruthless these days.
There is no such a thing...
as a sympathy vote.
My goodness.
You guys adamantly made a decision.
Between Sentimental Gas Station...
and Music Convenience Store,
who will win this match and move on to Round Two?
Let's find out now!
(Sentimental Gas Station filled our ears...)
(with his loud and clear voice.)
(Music Convenience Store made us smile...)
(with her innocent and clear voice.)
Between the two masked singers,
who will move on to Round Two?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(Chuckling)
(The panelists made a firm decision. Who is the winner?)
Who has got the voice you are attracted to?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is the winner?
(Sentimental Gas Station wins.)
Gas Station is the winner.
(Sir, please fill up my car with sentiment.)
(I knew he would win.)
- Gas Station is the winner. - Well done.
Sentimental Gas Station.
The score is 80 to 19.
(That's incredible.)
There was an overwhelming gap between the two.
With a whopping 80 votes he gained, Gas Station moves on to Round Two.
You may go to the waiting room now. Please give him a big hand.
(Talented Music Convenience Store's identity will be revealed soon.)
That way please.
I will fill you up with sentiment...
in Round Two as well.
Now, we're going to see who Music Convenience Store is.
We will reveal her identity...
with a solo performance prepared for Round Two.
Please give it up for her.
(Her identity will be revealed through her solo performance.)
(Is she a traffic reporter or a weather caster?)
(Her magical voice makes us feel good.)
(Music Convenience Store makes people happy?)
("That's Life, Isn't It?" by Travel Sketch)
She's got a very cute voice.
(Word by word,)
(she sings as if she tells a story.)
(She sings the cheerful melody with her clear voice.)
(The song calmly comforts us...)
(and helps us get through a difficult time.)
Now, Music Convenience Store,
please take off your mask and reveal your face.
(Screaming)
She is...
(Who on earth is she?)
(Curious)
She is...
a celebrity and a frank and feisty relationship columnist,
Kwak Jeong Eun!
(Music Convenience Store was Kwak Jeong Eun!)
(They're totally surprised.)
(She shows her shy smile that was hidden behind the mask.)
(Despite being nervous,)
(she sings the song from the heart.)
(As nervous as she is,)
(she gives a wholehearted performance.)
(That's life, isn't it?)
(No one knows what's ahead of us)
(Kwak Jeong Eun performed "That's Life, Isn't It?".)
(Excellent!)
I remember her voice now.
- She's got such a special voice. - This is why she sounded familiar.
Please say hello to the viewers.
(Bowing)
(A relationship columnist and a counsellor, Kwak Jeong Eun)
(She's the best in giving wise relationship advice.)
(She gives wholehearted and moving speeches.)
(She's one of the most popular lecturers.)
(A frank and charming speaker, Kwak Jeong Eun)
When you sang, your voice sounded different...
from the voice we used to hear on TV shows.
So I assume it was hard for them to guess your identity.
How was it?
When I had a rehearsal,
I wasn't this excited.
I see. So you suddenly have become excited?
I usually don't get nervous on TV shows.
But here, I had to sing,
so I think I lost my mind when it started.
At the end of the song, I realized this wasn't easy at all.
That's when the song was almost over.
It was very tough.
It was tough, but I'm happy too.
- Are you happy? - Yes.
Good. Is there anyone...
Since Jeong Eun is here,
is there anyone who would like to hear her advice?
(Kwak Jeong Eun's free counseling office opens.)
Wait. Esther raised her hand.
There's one thing I have always wanted to ask Jeong Eun...
- when I get to meet her. - What is it?
I and my husband have been married for 26 years now.
- And I love my husband so much. - Okay.
I can jump into water...
and die for my husband if needed.
But since we've been living together for 26 years,
we grew weary of each other and are now experiencing menopause.
Nowadays, it's hard to spend the daytime together.
We're thinking about what we can do in this situation.
I found out that I was the first woman he's ever kissed...
after 25 years.
This is troubling us greatly.
I'm the first woman he has ever kissed.
What should I do with my husband?
Hye Geol seems very embarrassed.
(Restless)
She's sitting right next to her husband.
Is there something you'd like to say...
to those who are going through menopause?
Actually, the word "menopause"...
could mean renewing as well.
You're now standing on a turning point.
Until now, you have been together...
during the daytime and nighttime.
You guys have been on TV shows together too.
If you're sharing too much part of your lives together,
you need to stop sharing some of it.
Imagine you give yourself...
some time alone...
as a present.
Set some days where you don't care about each other.
Set some boundaries of your own...
so you can get through your menopause as a couple.
I see. Try to make a plan separately.
Thank you.
Thank you very much, Jeong Eun.
To avoid spending too much time together,
- Right. - try to have some time alone.
I had no idea we'd be on this show together too.
All right. They are a happy couple.
I believe we could see...
Jeong Eun's heartwarming and friendly charms today.
With her clear and pure voice,
she sang a pleasant song for us.
Please give her a big hand.
(We look forward to Jeong Eun's future endeavors.)
(It was nice to see you.)
It was fun.
"You didn't know it was me, right?"
"It's me." It felt like that.
What I wanted to show is...
the warm side of me.
While I was performing in the mask,
no one judged me with prejudice...
or preconceptions.
Now that they looked at me as I am...
without any prejudice,
it feels like it aroused something new in me.
Are You Asleep, Masked King?
Come to Music Convenience Store was me,
Kwak Jeong Eun.
Thank you.
Please Fill up with Sensibility,
Sentimental Gas Station beats Kwak Jeong Eun...
and moves on to Round Two.
The third match of Round One.
King of Mask Singer, shoot me.
I never crumble.
This is a bulletproof sandcastle.
Bulletproof Sandcastle.
(I Never Crumble, Bulletproof Sandcastle)
I will show you my solid singing skills.
(I bet you've never listened to a song like this before.)
(We can't wait to hear it.)
I guess it's a woman.
She looks young.
She might be an idol.
Here's her opponent.
I sing very well.
I'll become the masked queen today.
Masked King, How Far Have You Gone?
The Great Wall...
to the Throne.
(Masked King, How Far Have You Gone? The Great Wall to the Throne)
Shall we go to the end...
of the Great Wall listening to my song?
(Please look forward to my amazing song.)
(We'd love to.)
It's a long way to the throne.
It is very far.
She looks tough.
(It's a match between two fortresses.)
(Which one will touch the panelists' hearts?)
(The glittering Bulletproof Sandcastle?)
(The magnificent Great Wall?)
(The song starts with cheerful beats.)
(Everyone dances to the song.)
("Warning" by Tashannie)
(With her husky voice,)
(Great Wall starts the song.)
(With her gentle voice,)
(Bulletproof Sandcastle continues the song.)
(Then she starts to rap powerfully.)
(Surprised)
(She shows her good sense of rhythm and groove with the song.)
She sounds like Jessi.
(Unlike her delicate appearance,)
(Bulletproof Sandcastle has a firm and straight voice.)
(I know this voice.)
(Bulletproof Sandcastle and Great Wall's genre-crossing performance)
(That was so cool.)
It was so hot. It's so heated.
They have attractive voices.
The third match of Round One...
has now come to an end.
I wonder how you liked it.
Young Seok?
Bulletproof Sandcastle did...
the work of two men alone.
She rapped very well.
The moment she started singing,
it felt like steam was rising from her body.
- Steam? - Yes.
She satisfied me only with the first verse.
Bulletproof Sandcastle who is a great singer rapped,
and Great Wall is a rapper.
Great Wall is a rapper?
Yes. She even sounded feisty.
Her voice is firm like a white pebble.
But her song sounded a little stiff.
It wasn't flexible enough.
And it made Bulletproof Sandcastle's beautiful voice...
stand out even more.
Now that you mentioned it,
it's just hard to tell.
I thought Bulletproof Karaoke Room did a better job, but...
Bulletproof Karaoke Room?
Who's Bulletproof Karaoke Room?
- Oh, she's Bulletproof Sandcastle. - It's Bulletproof Sandcastle.
I thought Young Seok would vote for Great Wall.
But he says he likes Bulletproof Sandcastle.
- He's unpredictable. - There's no right answer.
You can just choose what you like.
Just follow your heart.
- Can I really do that? - Sure.
You told me to pick one who sings better.
Since when did you listen to me?
You voted for Great Wall, right?
No way. I voted for Bulletproof Sandcastle.
I voted for Bulletproof Sandcastle.
Gosh, I'm sorry. Great Wall did a great job too.
It was nip and tuck.
But I had to decide the winner.
I'm sorry.
Hye Geol, your wife just told us who she picked.
When I'm in the same condition with her,
I make a decision that's opposite to hers.
(Married men are happy to hear that.)
- So you picked Great Wall? - Yes.
It was hard to distinguish superiority.
So I saw whom my wife picked...
and made the opposite choice.
Hye Geol tends to express his thoughts to the contrary,
so I'm stressed out.
When you first listened to them,
you said Bulletproof Sandcastle's song was better.
Why don't you talk something like that at home, not here?
(It's so much fun to watch them though.)
I'm 100 percent sure that I know who both of them are.
- My goodness. - All right.
- I'm 100 percent sure. - 100 percent?
- Do you think she's right, Gu Ra? - Yes,
I'm sure she's right.
EXY, please do not say anymore for a moment to protect them.
Bong Sun, how did you feel?
They felt like milk and a cocktail.
- Milk and a cocktail? - Yes.
Which one was like milk?
Bulletproof Sandcastle...
feels like white milk, and I think...
- she's a feminine idol singer. - An idol singer.
Whereas Great Wall feels like a tough girl.
She is like a cocktail...
that would make you feel something like fire when you swallow it.
And as for the boots,
I bet they belong to her.
- These boots? - They must be Great Wall's boots.
I think those are hot items for hip-hoppers.
- What you must have. - You think she may be a hip-hopper.
Well, I think...
Bulletproof Sandcastle is...
a very good singer in general.
Any producer would want to work with her.
- Bulletproof Sandcastle? - Yes.
But as for Great Wall, only those who fell for her charms...
would want to work with her.
If I were a producer, I'd rather produce Great Wall's album.
- Since she has some special charms? - Yes.
I think she has more potential.
I see. Great Wall.
But actually, I voted for the other one.
(Unexpected result)
- Gosh. - You're really mean.
- What are you talking about? - But...
But I... I...
You're like a parasite.
- He sways a lot. - He does.
I'm sure Great Wall has more specialties too.
- Great Walls? Okay. - Yes.
It's time to see their specialties.
The specialties that will help you with your deduction.
Let's see Great Wall's specialty first.
She's going to impersonate Jessi and mimic her singing style.
(On a hip-hop contest program,)
(Jessi left many famous scenes.)
Please let us hear Jessi's voice.
Okay. Come on.
Hold on. I have something to say.
(She really sounds like Jessi.)
She sounds exactly like her.
I've been doing music for 10 years in this industry,
and I had the most upsetting moment today.
Oh, my goodness.
(Fascinated)
She sounds just like her.
Gu Ra, who are you to judge me?
This is not a competition, right?
My goodness.
(Did she suddenly say what she really felt?)
(Those who brag about their money, go away)
(She mimics Jessi singing "Why" perfectly.)
She sounds just like Jessi.
(They sound 99.9 percent alike.)
That's what I was talking about.
She has that kind of specialty.
- That was great. - She sounds just like her.
(Who is she that sounds just like Jessi?)
Now, it's Bulletproof Sandcastle's turn.
Bulletproof Sandcastle is going to sing a song at double...
the original speed for you.
She'll sing at a normal speed first,
but the tape will be fast-forwarded all of a sudden.
Please start "Lies" by god.
(Goodbye, don't go)
(Be happy, don't leave me)
(Please forget me)
(Forget me and move on, don't forget me)
(I'm okay, I'm hurt)
(Don't worry about me and leave me)
- This is it. - It's funny.
(It's funny.)
Is there anything else?
Anything else?
Now, it's "The Downfall of the Moon" by Kim Hyun Chul.
Oh, "The Downfall of the Moon".
"The Downfall of the Moon". Please let us hear it.
(That moon she would like)
(That moon she would love)
(It is setting, the moon is going down)
This is it.
(It is funny.)
Wow, she's really good.
Not everyone is good at showing specialties.
All right.
Now, I will announce the result of the third match of Round One.
It was a very close match.
Oh, was it?
The difference in the number of votes...
from the audience is only one.
- 44 to 43. - Goodness.
It was such a very close match.
(Both of them are surprised.)
Who succeeded in defending her place...
only with her voice?
Who's the winner of this match? Let's find out now!
(The winner will be revealed now.)
(She has a sleek yet delicate singing style.)
(Bulletproof Sandcastle is a great vocalist with a high-pitched voice.)
(She has a heavy yet rhythmical feel.)
(Great Wall has a soulful, husky voice.)
Will Bulletproof Sandcastle collapse in Round One?
Or will Great Wall hand Round Two over to her competitor?
Who is the winner of this match?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(I'm getting nervous.)
(Which castle will the panelists choose?)
(Which way should we go?)
The difference in the number of votes from the audience is one.
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is it?
(I Never Crumble, Bulletproof Sandcastle wins.)
Bulletproof Sandcastle wins.
(This is Bulletproof Sandcastle.)
(Those who expected the result, those who are disappointed)
Bulletproof Sandcastle moves on to Round Two.
The result is 54 to 45.
The difference in the number of votes was nine.
Please go back to your waiting room. Please give her a big hand.
(Great Wall's identity will be revealed.)
Bulletproof Sandcastle moves on to Round Two.
I'm not an ordinary sandcastle.
Please wait for a moment.
Will she really be the one...
EXY is thinking of?
We will reveal her identity...
with a solo performance prepared for Round Two.
Please give her a big hand.
(Her identity will be revealed with her solo performance.)
(A rapper that seems like a tough girl?)
(Who is she that producer Gu Ra would want to work with?)
("Playing with Fire" by BLACKPINK)
(Their bodies move up and down.)
Right. She has to do something that fits her style like this.
(Oh, she's a good singer.)
(The song is perfect for Great Wall, a groovy vocalist.)
(Her hot voice calls for dancing.)
(Is she Jessi?)
(You're making me on edge like this)
(Great Wall heats up the atmosphere.)
(My love is on fire)
Now, Great Wall, please take off your mask...
and reveal your face.
(Screaming)
(This is amazing.)
- She is... - Who is it?
She is...
the winner of a hip-hop contest program for females,
a rapper with great skills, Truedy.
(Surprise rap she wrote herself)
(I got it right.)
(They have a girl crush on her.)
(Intense rap that penetrates into ears)
(He loves her style.)
She's attractive.
(They can't resist her charms.)
(Playing with fire)
Thank you.
("Playing with Fire" by Truedy was hot like fire.)
Bravo.
Please say hello to our viewers.
Hello. Nice to meet you. My name is Truedy.
(She made a meteoric rise on a hip-hop contest program.)
(Truedy got sensational and won the competition by a landslide.)
(With her intense rap and addictive voice,)
(she's building her own music world.)
(The next generation hip-hop queen, Truedy)
Since you won the competition,
I bet there were a lot of fans who wanted to see you,
but why were you hiding?
I got to participate in the competition by accident,
so I didn't have much time to practice,
but I wanted to show the improved version of me,
and that's why I came back now.
I came to say hello to you through this program.
I'm still alive.
(Thank you for waiting.)
- EXY, - Yes.
- you said you were sure about it. - Yes.
- We participated in the same show. - Right.
I recognized her voice right away.
- I see. - Yes.
Her voice is very similar...
- to Yoon Mi Rae's. - Right.
A lot of people might say that. What is it like?
A lot of people say it.
In the past, I used to obsess about...
coming up with my color.
But now I take it as a great honor.
I accept it as a compliment.
I am going to do my music harder.
Yoon Sang, Young Seok,
and I remember when Mi Rae made her debut.
She's like when Mi Rae was 16.
She's really shy right now,
- and even that's just like Mi Rae. - Is that right?
She's just like her.
He mentioned Mi Rae, but I think she looks like Lee Eui Jung.
- Lee Eui Jung. - She looks a lot like her.
- Two people are mixed. - She looks a lot like Eui Jung.
You can never guess how she will react to what you say.
Why are you keep doing that?
I really love it.
- I really love it. - This move?
- I'm a big fan. - Do it for her, Bong Sun.
- Really? - She kept doing it.
It's a hip thing to do...
among rappers.
Did you see me doing it with Woo Won Jae?
(He was the 1st rapper who is Bong Sun's fan.)
(They posed for the photo together.)
(Won Jae was one happy fan.)
- We did it together. - Did you?
- Do you want to do it together? - It would be a huge honor.
If I do this, I will be dominating the hip hop world.
- Right. - Yes.
You are popular in the hip hop world.
1, 2, 3.
(Her wish comes true.)
She's even better.
I am her big fan.
- I'm honored. - I am the one who's honored.
You met the one who came up with it.
Some of you must know.
She's openly dating a professional baseball player,
Rhee Dae Eun.
Does he sing well too?
He sings really well.
- He sings really well? - Really well.
My goodness.
He could become the masked king. Seriously.
- Really? - That's how good he is.
He sings well too when he throws balls that well?
- Yes. - Really?
Then can you help us?
Can you give us his number?
All right.
- I can't. - She does this a lot.
Bong Sun should just give it to her.
- I really love it. - Right.
Did he help you when you were preparing for this performance?
I learned a lot from him. He was my teacher.
He taught me how to sing.
He taught you?
He taught me a lot.
He must be very talented.
He has to come here.
My goodness. You are not just saying it then.
- He must come here. - He must.
He must be watching the show.
The baseball season started,
so we will contact you when the season ends.
She's got a unique voice...
and a bubbly personality.
She surprised us with the charms we didn't expect from her.
She's Rapper Truedy. Please give it up for her.
Thank you. Thank you.
(We hope to see you again soon.)
(Cheers!)
Yes. It helped me a lot.
I first sang in front of the audience with the mask on.
Then I took off the mask and rapped.
That made me emotional.
I received energy through it.
Being on King of Mask Singer...
made me want to meet more people.
It made me want to do music even harder.
Masked King, How Far Have You Gone?
The Great Wall to the Throne was Truedy.
Thank you.
I Never Crumble, Bulletproof Sandcastle.
Bulletproof Sandcastle beats Truedy and moves on to Round Two.
This is the last match of Round One.
I am luxurious and elegant.
Now shall I go and sing?
Hurry and Drive to the Throne,
Song Rich Madam.
(Hurry and Drive to the Throne, Song Rich Madam)
What do you say? Should I shop on the throne today?
(I will treat you to a song today.)
(We are excited about it.)
She actually looks like a rich madam.
She can act.
Her posture is perfect.
Contending against her is this masked singer.
He will safely and comfortably...
drive to the throne.
I Will Race All the Way to the Throne,
Driver Kim.
(I Will Race All the Way to the Throne, Driver Kim)
Why don't we go for a drive today while listening to my song?
(I will always be on standby for you.)
(It's nice to meet you.)
Driver Kim, drive.
It's a competition between a male and a female singer.
I think this is going to be a fun match.
- This is going to be fun. - Right?
(When they are together, this duo shines.)
(But only one person can win.)
(Is it going to be the madam who's got everything she ever needs?)
(Or is it going to be the always diligent Driver Kim?)
(Dancing)
What is this?
(Which song has this exciting intro?)
("Trust Me" by Park Hyun Bin)
(His voice is as cool as driving through a highway.)
(Dancing)
(Everyone gets excited.)
(The key is raised.)
It's Song Rich Madam's turn. I am excited.
(It's Song Rich Madam's turn.)
(Who is it?)
(Her voice is calm and charming.)
(Their voices are different, but they harmonize well.)
(Their "Trust Me" showed what a duet must be like.)
(That was the best.)
I have no idea.
That just relieved all the stress.
That was amazing.
She was a madam who likes to sing and dance.
The last match of Round One,
duet competition ended.
Yoon Sang jotted down...
a lot of notes while listening.
Looking at his mask,
Driver Kim looked very daunted at first.
I was convinced that...
Song Rich Madam was going to dominate the performance.
But when the song began,
he took control of the performance.
I was really excited about Song Rich Madam's charisma.
But her voice isn't powerful enough for a stage performance.
(Her voice isn't powerful enough for a stage performance.)
But she's got the unusual charisma.
It's my first time to feel such a powerful aura...
from someone wearing a mask.
Honestly, I am scared.
- But... - She's exuding her energy.
- Yes. - She doesn't...
seem like someone who specializes in singing.
I think she's someone who does acting on sets.
Acting on sets.
Yes. She's an actress.
I think she's Miss Korea, Kim Sung Ryoung.
She acts like a princess,
and she's elegant.
She is beautiful,
but isn't she a little different...
from Sung Ryoung?
How so?
My husband struggles to recognize people.
- Really? - Especially with women.
His wife is saying it, so it must be true.
Whoever has fair skin and a round face is pretty to him.
Then who do you think she is?
I figured it out right away.
Can I mention her real name?
- You will get it wrong anyway. - I will mention it.
I think she is...
Ahn Sun Yeong.
- Ahn Sun Yeong? - Yes.
- Ahn Sun Yeong. - Wait.
Gu Ra. You thought so too, right?
I do think it's her,
but I stayed quiet because I didn't want...
to reveal her identity.
Esther is such a knowledgeable person...
that she can't keep quiet about something she knows.
She finally recognized someone,
and she's so happy like a little girl.
- You chose to stay quiet? - Yes, to protect her identity.
The way I see it,
she's wearing...
many things that she owns herself.
Especially her high heels.
I think they're her own shoes.
If they were,
she'd probably be in her early 30s.
- In her early 30s? - Yes.
Then she'd be a bit too young to be called as a madam.
I'm sorry. I think I'm wrong.
Are you upset?
- Younger? Are you in your 20s? - Younger.
- Younger? - She says she's younger than that.
You have no conscience at all?
- That's a cutting remark. - My gosh.
We even think you could be in your 40s or 50s.
- You think she could be in her 50s? - Sure.
Can I go home?
- Why? - You hurt my pride.
Her pride is hurt...
because you said she could be in her 50s.
I'm certain that she's not over 50.
I think she's in somewhere...
around her mid-40s,
- but it feels like... - That's basically the same thing.
I don't think that will make her feel much better.
No. Her gestures and the vibes...
that she gives off...
say that she wants to look like a woman in her early to mid-30s.
But I think her long experience...
in the show business makes her look mature.
She can't hide it.
I see.
Oh, no.
(Oh, my.)
- Please get up. - Who'd think she's in her 20s?
- Don't squat down like that. - A young woman wouldn't do that.
- What about Driver Kim here? - Excuse me.
I'm sorry, but I think I know...
who Driver Kim is.
- Him too? - She's good at this.
- You recognized him too? - I could be wrong,
but I think he's a member of the group that worked...
at the same time as us since our debut.
I was convinced that it was him...
when he started...
to dance like this when the music started.
The way he danced...
(His dance drew everyone's attention in an instant.)
(Those moves are...)
- I'm 100 percent sure. - Oh, gosh.
I recently went on a show with him.
- Really? - He danced in the exact same way.
- Also, among... - We don't know who he is.
Among the male idol singers,
only a few of them can hit...
- such high notes. - That's right.
If he's not who we think he is,
we'll have to look back on our career.
It could mean that we just wasted our time.
- Right. - We're 100 percent sure.
If he isn't...
What if we're wrong?
If we're wrong? No, we can't be wrong.
Can you give me the initial of his group?
- 1, 2, 3. - 1, 2, 3.
- A. - A.
- A? - Yes.
A? Apink?
Apink?
Who just said Apink?
He always does that.
All right. Let's hear someone else's opinions too.
Kai.
It's like Song Rich Madam should serve Driver Kim instead.
Whenever she's happy, sad,
lonely, or down,
he can touch her heart with his songs.
I also thought...
that he would be a talented idol singer with great singing skills.
- Okay. What about Song Rich Madam? - She is...
That's more important.
Song Rich Madam is...
(Do you want this?)
- She's offering him her bracelet. - "You can have this."
"I'll give it to you."
- "Kai, this is expensive jewelry." - Okay.
I don't really have a greed for wealth.
Is that so? Oh, my.
Anyway, I think she's someone who's really fun and cheerful...
who would enjoy...
music and dancing every night.
Song Rich Madam, I'll take that bracelet.
I really like it.
Really? You like her outfit too.
All right. Now, let's check out their specialties...
which will help you guess who they are.
Let's start with Driver Kim.
He can do an animal mimicry.
It's a singing chicken.
He'll mimic a chicken singing a song.
The MBC jingle sung by a chicken.
Let us hear it.
(It gives them goosebumps.)
He's really good.
(That's amazing.)
Is he who you think he is?
- You all seem surprised. - So far, I'm 100 percent sure.
That was really good.
All right. This time,
the chicken will sing "Growl" by EXO.
But it's not just singing.
- He'll also dance to it. - Dance too?
He'll dance to it as well.
("Growl" sung by a chicken?)
(Crowing)
(The chicken is intimidating the growling beast.)
(Flapping)
(It's like he's stretching after laying eggs.)
(He finishes it with swag.)
All right.
- They're going crazy. - That was something new.
- These girls are going crazy. - I've never seen anything like it.
- They liked it. - Actually,
Driver Kim is wearing a mask, right?
But we felt bad because we could imagine his face.
We shouldn't have said we knew who he was too soon.
- I'm sorry. - Are you that certain?
- Yes. - They seem to like him very much.
You still might be wrong about this.
This time, let's see Song Rich Madam's specialty.
She prepared a graceful...
and sexy dance which suits her image perfectly.
All right. Music, please!
(Moving her hand)
Oh, my. This is a song of Chungha.
(She starts off with some extraordinary moves.)
(Intense)
(Oh, my.)
(Light steps)
Those are not just any steps.
(She must've been quite a dancer when she was younger.)
Oh, my gosh.
All right, Song Rich Madam.
She's a good dancer.
(She's good.)
(It's already midnight)
Gosh.
Look at her detailed moves.
(She wants to have some more fun.)
(We have to go, madam.)
Goodness. She's really good.
(She refuses to go home with her dance.)
(A dance of Song Rich Madam who's having too much fun)
- That was amazing. - She's a good dancer.
- Song Rich Madam. - She's great.
I admire you, Song Rich Madam.
Gosh. I think her dance changed your opinions about her.
If it's okay with you, could you do the mimicry again and...
Yes, he should do that.
- Sing "Gotta Go". - Can you sing "Gotta Go"?
It's like he's a chicken who crows at midnight.
- A chicken who crows at night. - Can you dance too?
You want her to dance?
Can you do the dance again, Song Rich Madam?
- Okay, she'll dance again. - That's good.
She'll dance to his chicken mimicry.
All right.
Okay, good. You make a good team.
You'll do it with your real voice, right?
All right.
- He answered with a crow. - He's already a chicken.
He has already become a chicken.
Great. "Gotta Go" by Chungha.
Let's go!
(He tells her it's time to go with strong crows.)
(But I don't want to go home yet.)
That's great.
(Song Rich Madam, it's time to go home.)
She's dancing well to his crows too.
(Please)
That was good.
That was one of the best collaboration works.
All right. I will now announce...
the result of the last match of Round One.
Between Song Rich Madam...
and Driver Kim,
who will win this match...
and advance to Round Two? Let's find out now!
(She couldn't hide her cheerful character.)
(Song Rich Madam with irresistible charm)
(Driver Kim with a refreshing voice...)
(that you want to keep listening to forever)
Who is the winner,
Song Rich Madam or Driver Kim?
Who is the winner of the last match?
- The winner is... - The winner is...
(I'm so nervous.)
(Whose voice captivated the audience?)
- The winner is... - The winner is...
Who is it?
(Driver Kim wins.)
The winner is Driver Kim.
(Let's work overtime, Driver Kim.)
(Gosh, Song Rich Madam.)
All right.
The score is 77 to 22.
What?
I didn't choose the winner.
She's very disappointed.
Please go back to your waiting room.
Let's give him a big hand.
(Song Rich Madam's identity will be revealed.)
The winner is Driver Kim.
I will take you to Round Two safely.
Toot, toot.
She has a powerful aura that her mask can't hide.
I wonder what song she prepared for her solo performance.
Let's watch it and reveal her identity.
Please give her a big round of applause.
(Is she Kim Sung Ryoung, the former Miss Korea?)
(No, I think she's Ahn Sun Yeong.)
("I Will Give You All My Love" by Jang Hye Lee)
I like this song.
Who could she be?
(Unlike the previous performance,)
(she starts off calmly and serenely.)
It's nice.
(I won't cry anymore)
(A breakup is too painful)
(Even if I don't remember)
(I cannot erase it)
(Stay)
(By my side)
Now, Song Rich Madam,
- please take off your mask... - I can't wait.
and reveal your face.
(Take off your mask and reveal your face!)
(Screaming)
(Who is she?)
Reveal your face.
She is...
She's a well-known actress who was once a model.
She's Pyeon Jung Su.
(A famous actress and former model, Pyeon Jung Su)
(Their guess was totally wrong.)
It's crazy.
(It was Pyeon Jung Su.)
(I will)
(Give you)
(All my love)
(The mood has changed unexpectedly like her unexpected identity.)
(Stay)
(By my side)
She's so pretty.
(Full of pleasant energy, "I'll Give You All My Love" by Pyeon Jung Su)
Bravo!
- I got the feeling in the end. - I know.
- We could've guessed it right. - What a shame.
She is Pyeon Jung Su.
- Please say hello to the viewers. - Hello, I'm Pyeon Jung Su.
It's nice to see you.
(Pyeon Jung Su is an actress who was once the top model.)
(Not to mention villains,)
(she pulled off acting various roles from sexy to comical characters.)
(She took over variety shows with her eye-catching personality.)
(She's successful even as a show host and an online streamer.)
(Pyeon Jung Su is the icon of beautiful challenges.)
I guess appearing on this show was a new challenge for you.
That's right. Standing on stage,
especially for a musical performance,
was a huge challenge for me.
As you already know, I acted in dramas...
and recently played a role in a musical.
- Goodness. - I was once a radio show host too.
- Right. - I did everything except for two.
Being a singer and giving birth to a boy.
I just couldn't do these two things no matter how hard I tried.
10 years ago, I had surgery on my vocal cords.
Then after two years, I had thyroid surgery.
I wondered why my throat was giving me so much trouble...
when I wasn't even a singer.
I couldn't sing high notes,
but I wondered I might be able to muster up my courage with a mask on.
I wanted to overcome my embarrassment and give it a go.
I even practiced dancing.
She needed to muster up her courage...
to make this miracle happen.
Despite all these reasons,
your daughters were...
totally against your appearance.
- Yes, I have two daughters. - "Mom, don't do that."
They're currently in the States.
They called me and told me never to do it...
- Why? - because it'd make them ashamed.
They wanted me to show only the pretty sides...
and never to get humiliated on TV...
because they'd be too ashamed to go to school otherwise.
They told me such things.
It made me embarrassed.
- It must've swayed you. - Right, I hesitated a little.
There's someone who mentioned that your elegance showed...
through your mask despite your dance and funny gestures.
Hye Geol?
- Yes. She's so beautiful. - Your eyes...
are dazzled by her looks.
I couldn't take my eyes off her.
I enjoyed her performance so much.
I even forgot that my wife was sitting next to me.
I loved it.
- Thank you. - This couple...
is unbelievable.
They're unbelievable.
I don't get mad over such a thing.
He's always been like this.
She doesn't get mad over this much.
I heard you have something to tell those housewives in your age...
now that you're here against your daughters' will, Jung Su.
The panelists have guessed...
that I'd be in my 40s to 50s earlier.
It's true.
I'm 46 years old this year.
Regardless... Go on and give me a big hand.
(Don't hold your applause.)
Regardless,
I performed on this stage even though it wasn't good enough.
And I believe facing embarrassment is also a challenge.
I wanted to be myself...
instead of someone's wife or mom.
I wish that people of my age challenge themselves...
for something as who they really are.
I'd like to send this message to them.
Muster up your courage, guys.
A lot of people might appreciate Jung Su's new challenge.
When you make an exit after saying goodbye,
- please show us the runway walk. - Right, that's my original job.
- We'll play some music for you. - Okay.
Through King of Mask Singer,
Jung Su has succeeded in her new challenge.
Please give her a round of applause.
(We're cheering on Jung Su's future.)
She's the representative model in Korea.
Look at her flashy walk.
It's different.
(Amazed)
She's leaving the stage now. Please give her a hand.
(It's the most stylish exit in the history of the show.)
It was Pyeon Jung Su.
I hardly danced in my entire life.
I didn't have such a chance, and even if it was off stage,
I never danced.
I realized through this chance that it's most important...
to break away from my bias and to enjoy the moment.
Unlike this side of me,
my daughters seem to be very shy.
Jung Won and Chae Won,
instead of showing only your good sides to others,
I'd like you to live a life where you admit to your failure...
and make something exciting in it.
I'm always going to support you.
Song Rich Madam was me, Pyeon Jung Su.
Thank you.
I Will Race All the Way to the Throne,
Driver Kim defeats Pyeon Jung Su...
and advances to Round Two.
Next week.
(Cheerful challengers have come.)
(Upset)
(Esther's prescription for Gu Ra who lacks a sense of sensitivity)
(He wants to change seats.)
(It's touching.)
(You can't help but shed tears.)
(A feast of dramatic performances)
(And Genie is finally up for his first defense match.)
(How will his fate turn out to be?)
(It'll be revealed next week.)
