Both of the singers are very cute and Young Seok commented that Jihyo voice sounded perfect for a lotion commercial for teenage girls, since she has a very fresh tone. The other panelist, Cho Jang-suk, said that he got the impression that they were still very young and commented about their soft voices when they sang.
He also said that their voices were really strong and it was really hard to sing perfectly without ever being off-tune, so their voices are really well trained. It was really surprising that they could sing in such way. Kim Gura also added the comment that they may have surpassed the original singer, Suzy and EXO’s Baekhyun.
Kim Gura explained that a more specific hint about the two masked singers was that when they entered the stage, they bowed at 90º, but he was certain that they were idols.
The other panelist, Han Dong-geun, commented that he used to give lessons to SEVENTEEN’s members when they came out to this show, and they should give a hint with a special talent. He almost guessed that DK was one of the members of SEVENTEEN.
In the other panelist’s, EXID’s Jeonghwa, opinion, she thought that the “You Hold Me, Little Ghost” mask was a member of a girl-group, since she acted so cute from the beginning, but as soon as she heard her voice, Jeonghwa changed her mind and thought that she wasn’t a girl-group member, after all.
Another panelist, Shin Bong-sun, commented that her looks showed her to be an older singer who was already in her 30s, based on how her shoulders looked. She compared how Jihyo looked compared with Oh My Girl’s YooA, who had a slimmer figure from her shoulders.
Second Songs
Although she couldn’t win until the second round, the panelists still couldn’t guess who she was behind her mask. The second song that she performed on ‘King of Masked Singer‘ was Like an Indian Doll, by Nami.
Her choice of song surprised everyone and she sounded much more seductive compared to her delivery in the first round. Her voice exuded a sense of ripe beauty and was so catchy that everyone really enjoyed her performance.
