[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] The identity of Retriever on the KBS2 show 'King of Mask Singer,' which aired on the afternoon of the 23rd, was Jin Hua, a Chinese-born broadcaster and husband of Ham So-won.


On this day, 'King of Mask Singer' featured the first-round performances of new masked singers challenging Mrs. Rose's six consecutive wins. The second match of the first round was between Retriever and Clubber. Retriever perfectly imitated the dance of "Heurin Gieok Sok-ui Geudae" together with Hyun Jin-young, surprising the judging panel.


In this round, Clubber advanced to the second round with a score of 15 to 6. After singing Kim Hyun-sik's "Like the Rain, Like the Music" and removing his mask, Retriever was revealed to be Jin Hua, a Chinese-born broadcaster who is 18 years younger than Ham So-won.


Previously, the judging panel guessed he was a rapper, and Jin Hua acknowledged, "I have heard a lot that I am a rapper." He also shared an anecdote, saying, "My wife accepted the appearance on 'King of Mask Singer' without consulting me, so I ended up coming on the show."


Finally, he emphasized, "It hurts my heart a lot because there are many scenes on variety shows where I fight with Ham So-won. We have many happy moments. Viewers, please do not worry. We really love each other a lot in our daily life."



The MBC music variety program 'King of Mask Singer' airs every Sunday at 6:20 PM.
