Female duo Davichi member Lee Hae-ri secured the runner-up position in 'Hidden Singer 8'.
In the fourth episode of JTBC's 'Hidden Singer 8', broadcast on the 21st, Lee Hae-ri appeared as the fourth original singer and unfortunately finished as the runner-up, yet she created a harmonious gathering with vocal impersonators through hit songs that sparked group singing.
On this day, Lee Hae-ri took the stage as the original singer, while her group member Kang Min-kyung sat in the audience as a hidden judge. As Davichi has been active as South Korea's longest-running female duo, attention focused on Kang Min-kyung's accuracy rate. When Lee Hae-ri warned Kang Min-kyung to approach the challenge as if filming a documentary rather than an entertainment show, Kang Min-kyung responded, "If I can't identify the voice correctly, Davichi will have to disband," mentioning the team's dissolution and showing a firm resolve from the start.
Round 1 began with Davichi's legendary debut song 'Because I Love You Even Though I Hate You'. Lee Hae-ri expressed concern that her vocal style had changed from the past, but the atmosphere shifted the moment Jeonju's melody played. Lee Hae-ri produced a voice identical to her past recordings. However, the vocal impersonators were also highly skilled, and Lee Hae-ri barely managed to advance to Round 2. Kang Min-kyung advised, "You should sing in a way that clearly reveals it's Lee Hae-ri," raising expectations for Lee Hae-ri's next performance.
Round 2 proceeded with the hit song '8282', which sparked group singing, creating a round where everyone forgot the competition and enjoyed the moment together. However, the first verse ended faster than expected, leaving everyone flustered, and Soyou sighed, "This is too much." In response, MC Jeon Hyun-mu jokingly quelled the booing by saying, "What can you do when a song is like this!" While most of the hidden judges expressed the difficulty of voting, Kang Min-kyung correctly identified Lee Hae-ri's position, eliciting surprise. Lee Hae-ri, who had stood on the brink of elimination, survived by a narrow margin.
Round 3, which began with 'Don't You Know', the OST from the drama 'Iris 2', added tension with its high difficulty level. Especially when Lee Hae-ri appeared in an unexpected place from the hidden judges' expectations, everyone was shocked. Song Eun-i was so impressed by the vocal impersonators' skills that her jaw dropped, and Kim Jun-ho revealed that he knew Lee Hae-ri's position and was so surprised his voice gave out as he shouted.
Having overcome another crisis, Lee Hae-ri opened Round 4 with 'Don't Say Hello'. Kang Min-kyung, who had correctly identified the answer in every round, once again pinpointed Lee Hae-ri in Round 4, boasting a 100% accuracy rate. Following this, Song Eun-i, who identified Lee Hae-ri's position by Kang Min-kyung's expression after "cheating for the first time," and Park Tae-hwan, who showed confidence by saying "It touched my eardrums," both correctly identified the answer, leading to expectations that Lee Hae-ri would win. However, surprisingly, the vocal impersonator 'Hwacheon County Lee Hae-ri' won, delivering a twist result.
The vocal impersonator 'Hwacheon County Lee Hae-ri' shed tears, saying, "This moment feels like a gift," and shared the joy of victory with Lee Hae-ri. Kang Min-kyung said, "I wanted Lee Hae-ri to win, but seeing so many people congratulate her, I'm glad my sister didn't win," causing everyone to burst into laughter. Lee Hae-ri's episode, which featured a stage where the original singer and vocal impersonators united, concluded beautifully as a grand feast of hit songs that even captivated the hearts of the hidden judges.
JTBC's 'Hidden Singer 8' featuring Kim Hyun-jeong will be broadcast at 8:50 p.m. on the 28th.
