[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 30th, Jangmi Yeosa was crowned the 135th Mask King on MBC's 'King of Mask Singer.'

On this day, 'King of Mask Singer' featured the second-round performances of masked singers challenging Jangmi Yeosa's six consecutive wins. The first stage was a showdown between Suwon Wang Galbi and Clubber. Suwon Wang Galbi chose Hyun Jin-young's 'Sori Chyeobwa,' while Clubber selected Brown Eyed Soul's 'Nothing Better.'

Jo Sung-mo commented on Suwon Wang Galbi, saying, "I think they are a singer, but it's a rare voice for a female." Hyun Jin-young told Clubber, "I felt a lot of charm from the faint metallic sound." This stage ended with Suwon Wang Galbi advancing to the third round with a score of 14 to 7.

The identity of Clubber, who took off the mask, was singer Nakjun. MC Kim Sung-joo revealed, "Nakjun was discharged from the military just two weeks ago. He appeared on 'King of Mask Singer' only two weeks after his discharge." When asked if military life was harder for him as a Korean-American, Nakjun replied, "At first, it was hard to adapt because of the language. But there, I was not entertainer Nakjun but a soldier protecting Korea like everyone else, so it was actually more comfortable."

The next battle was between Cham Jalhaesseoyo and Three Go. Cham Jalhaesseoyo sang Kim Yoon-ah's 'Yasanggok,' and the judging panel praised, "Cham Jalhaesseoyo is not just good; they did very well."

Three Go chose Yada's 'Already a Sad Love.' Members of Golden Child on the judging panel guessed, "This person has worked with us. They are a solo artist with an English name." This battle ended with Cham Jalhaesseoyo advancing to the next round with a score of 13 to 8.

The identity of the unfortunately defeated Three Go was Cho Seung-yeon, who is active under the name WOODZ. Cho Seung-yeon shared that he briefly played in a youth soccer team in Brazil during middle school before returning to Korea to pursue his dream of becoming a singer. He also said, "While working on songs, I wanted to become like senior Yoon Sang. I really want to get his contact information." Yoon Sang responded, "You definitely can."

The third round featured a battle between Suwon Wang Galbi and Cham Jalhaesseoyo. Suwon Wang Galbi selected Leessang (Jung In)'s 'Sarang-eun,' and Cham Jalhaesseoyo chose Ailee's 'I Will Go to You Like the First Snow.'

Jo Sung-mo said to Suwon Wang Galbi, "I've never been this curious about who you are," expressing eagerness to know their identity. Min Woo-hyuk added, "Whoever advances will be threatening." This stage ended with Cham Jalhaesseoyo advancing to the King of Mask Singer final with an overwhelming score of 19 to 2.

The identity of Suwon Wang Galbi, who took off the mask, was trot singer Kim Yang. Kim Yang said her mother has been ill for a long time and wanted to dedicate this stage to her. She especially mentioned, "I want to recommend my close friend Jang Yoon-jeong to 'King of Mask Singer.'"

In the final King of Mask Singer showdown, Jangmi Yeosa sang Na Hoon-a's 'Eomma.' Some members of the judging panel were moved to tears by Jangmi Yeosa's passionate performance. Ultimately, Jangmi Yeosa won her sixth consecutive victory and became the 135th Mask King with a score of 13 to 8.

The identity of Cham Jalhaesseoyo, who failed in the King of Mask Singer challenge, was singer Yoo Sung-eun. Yoon Sang had previously praised Cham Jalhaesseoyo, saying, "The voice color is incredibly diverse." Yoo Sung-eun mentioned, "Many acquaintances have held the title of Mask King," naming Song Seung-yeon, Bonggu, and Solji among them.

Yoo Young-seok said, "When listening to songs, there is a certain pitch for the ear. Today, you showed a level of singing that far exceeded my ear's pitch," and Yoo Sung-eun expressed gratitude. Yoo Young-seok added, "Personally, I hope you challenge again."
