Singer Kim Hyun-jeong failed to stop the vocal impersonators and took second place.

In the fifth episode of JTBC's "Hidden Singer 8," broadcast on the 28th, Kim Hyun-jeong, known as the "Divine of the Bridge," appeared as the fifth original singer to compete against the vocal impersonators.

As Kim Hyun-jeong, who conquered the Y2K era with explosive popularity in nightclubs and on the Gilboard charts, made her appearance, "Hidden Singer 8" also opened as "Hidden Night," heating up the atmosphere. Kim Hyun-jeong expressed anticipation for the competition with the impersonators, saying, "I thought someone might appear who could study and sing my songs even better than I do," and added, "I wondered if they could really sing it exactly the same."

The first round featured "Lonely Love," a song in which Kim Hyun-jeong showcased her surprising charm. She revealed that she practiced by scraping walls and squeezing her body to produce her voice at the time. This time as well, Kim Hyun-jeong, who practiced with all her might, burned through the first round alongside the impersonators. The impersonators managed to produce a voice that sounded like a copy of Kim Hyun-jeong's, resulting in only Song Eun-i among the celebrity judges recognizing her voice. Ultimately, Kim Hyun-jeong advanced to the next round by a narrow margin of just two votes from the eliminated contestant.

The second round was filled with "Parting with Her," a 1990s breakup classic. Jang Seo-hee appeared as Kim Hyun-jeong's "best friend," but she remarked that matching the voice was difficult, highlighting the increased difficulty. Although it was thought that this performance would confuse even the Hidden Judges, surprisingly, Kim Hyun-jeong took first place in the second round, doubling the fun.

In the third round, titled "The Return of Parting," as the saying goes, "That singer and that fan," both the original singer and the impersonators displayed insane high notes, achieving harmony. After the performance, Kim Hyun-jeong said, "I thought the first verse was sung solo. I had never sung it with anyone before, so my mental state broke when we sang it as a duet," and she repeatedly expressed admiration for the impersonators' skills.

The final fourth round featured "Mung," a song that received great love for its whirlwind dance. The power vocals, which poured out like a barrage of high-note bombs, provided a refreshing catharsis not only to the Hidden Judges but also to the viewers. Here, the "High-Note Bomber Kim Hyun-jeong" impersonator surged forward and claimed the title.

Kim Hyun-jeong, who confessed that her voice changed due to vocal nodules, said, "I was considering whether to withdraw voluntarily since I couldn't speak inside," and added, "Please get used to this voice as well. An impersonator taught me a thing or two," expressing her gratitude. Jang Seo-hee comforted her, saying, "Anyone can't just stand on that stage; there is someone who loves (Kim Hyun-jeong) that makes this stage possible."

Meanwhile, following Kim Hyun-jeong, 10CM's Kwon Jeong-yeol, an indie idol, will appear as the sixth original singer on "Hidden Singer 8."
