Singer Shim Soo-bong presented a legendary stage.
In JTBC's entertainment program "Hidden Singer 8," which aired on the 31st of last month, Shim Soo-bong appeared as the first original singer, capturing the hidden judges' ears with all-time impersonators and unique voices on stage. As a result, the ratings of the first episode reached 4.6% nationwide and 4.0% in the metropolitan area, making a good start. The highest ratings per minute soared to 6.4 percent nationwide (based on Nielsen Korea's paid households)
On this day's broadcast, Shim Soo-bong, the original singer who the production team has tried to ask for a cast since season 1, finally found "Hidden Singer" and drew attention from the beginning. In particular, Jeon Hyun-moo hinted that it would be a difficult showdown, saying that there is a person who has been waiting for Shim Soo-bong for 12 years.
Hidden judges, who will pick out impersonators, also boasted a formidable lineup. Song Eun-yi, the master of the house, Kim Gwang-gyu, Lee Jong-hyuk, Son Tae-jin, Bada, K.Will, and Lim Woo-il, as well as Billlie members Tsuki and Si-yoon, and Shin Yang-soon, who is the mother of Jason and Jason, and a real fan of Shim Soo-bong, and Choi So-hyun, who imitates the sea. Among them, Shim Soo-bong and Son Tae-jin are grandmothers and nephews and grandchildren, and Si-yoon, a member of the Billlie, said Shim Soo-bong is his great-grandmother and grandmother, adding to their expectations.
Hidden Singer 8, which consists of five rounds for the first time in the season due to many masterpieces, opened the first round with Shim Soo-bong's "The One Then." In particular, the Hidden Judgment Team, which had been in a difficult situation since the first round, was surprised by the shocking reversal that only six impersonators participated without the original singer Shim Soo-bong. MC Jeon Hyun-moo was also unaware, and he was handed a new script by the production team and doubled the fun by saying, "What if you trick me?"
In the second round, where Shim Soo-bong participated in earnest, "The Port for Men and Women on Boat" came out. While Song Eun-yi admired the skills of the impersonators, saying, "It feels like one person is singing it," Son Tae-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu expressed mixed opinions on one identity. Kim Kwang-kyu said it was not Shim Soo-bong, saying, "If you hit it with a record, it bounced slightly at the beginning," and Son Tae-jin claimed it was Shim Soo-bong for the same reason, drawing attention to who would be right.
Among the two, Son Tae-jin got the answer right. Shim Soo-bong said, "I didn't think there was anyone who couldn't guess my voice. I feel betrayed," he said, expressing regret. At the same time, when asked about the possibility of being eliminated, he expressed confidence, saying, "There is no such thing," raising interest in the remaining round.
Shim Soo-bong and the impersonators faced off with "I only know love" in the third round and "Binari" in the fourth round. The masterpiece stage, where you can hear the prelude just by listening to the title, left viewers excited and moved as well as the joy of reasoning. The fifth round, which determines the last championship, was conducted with "One Million Roses," and in the end, Shim Soo-bong won the final championship with an overwhelming number of votes. Shim Soo-bong said, "I will pray that those who came today will love you like a million roses and end up with a really happy life."
Like this, Hidden Singer 8 gave beautiful memories to original singers and impersonators through Shim Soo-bong. MC Jeon Hyun-moo's great performance and various reasoning by hidden judges, including Song Eun-yi, created fun that can only be seen in Hidden Singer, raising expectations for future confrontations.
Hidden Singer 8 airs every Tuesday at 8:50 p.m.
