[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 12th, MBC's 'King of Mask Singer' aired the scene where Joo Yoonbal succeeded in winning four consecutive times and became the 125th Mask King.

The first stage of the second round that day was a showdown between Magician and Burning Friday. Magician performed Lee Seungcheol's 'A Long Day' with a refreshing voice, while Burning Friday sang Jo Gyuman's 'I'll Give You Everything' with a clear falsetto, drawing admiration. Burning Friday won this stage with a score of 17 to 4.

Magician, who took off the mask, was Miss Korea alumna and actress Kim Hyeri. Kim Hyeri said, "When my daughter told her friends at school, 'My mom is actress Kim Hyeri,' her friends said they knew Girl's Day's Hyeri but not me," and added, "I appeared because I wanted to show my daughter my true self."

The second match of the second round was between Triangle Kimbap and Hamster. Triangle Kimbap delivered Asoto Union's 'Think About Chu' with a stylish voice, and Hamster skillfully sang SISTAR19's 'Ma Boy,' attracting attention. Luna praised Hamster's singing skills, saying, "I'm smitten," and Yoo Youngseok highly complimented, "He seems like the Grim Reaper who will catch Joo Yoonbal." Hamster won this match 15 to 6 and advanced to the next round.

The identity of the defeated Triangle Kimbap was Baekchan of the group Eight, famous for 'Without a Heart.' Baekchan said, "I was really surprised" after his identity was revealed to the judging panel in the first round, and expressed gratitude, "Thank you for remembering me."

In the third round, Burning Friday and Hamster faced off. Burning Friday sang Seo Taiji and Boys' 'To You,' highlighting his unique falsetto, while Hamster performed Yoon Jongshin's 'Good' with a smooth tone. Hamster won this stage 15 to 6 and became the final candidate to compete against the Mask King.

Burning Friday, whom Kai praised saying, "You urgently need insurance," was Kim Wooseok, a former member of UP10TION who is currently active as a solo artist. Kim Wooseok, who appeared wanting to be recognized for his skills rather than looks, said, "I'm satisfied just to have sung all three prepared songs."

Finally, the stage of Mask King Joo Yoonbal followed. Joo Yoonbal chose Cho Yongpil's 'Bounce,' and Yoon Sang said, "An excellent song choice," while Daybreak's Lee Wonseok commented, "His charisma dominating the stage is extraordinary." In the end, Joo Yoonbal defeated Hamster, achieving his fourth consecutive win and becoming the 125th Mask King.

Hamster, who competed fiercely against Joo Yoonbal until the end, was Park Jinyoung of Bubble Sisters. Park Jinyoung confessed, "It was tough because of the thick costume," and requested, "Please remember me as Park Jinyoung, not Langxue."
