"Immortal Songs: Singing the Songs of Legends."
He's the "Immortal Songs" singer with style.
Please welcome Jung Dongha.
We can't leave Dongha out on such a special.
We can't have the 300th episode special without him.
He's always gotten over 420 points.
His average is 420?
(Whenever he has a mic in hand!)
(He always gets over 400 votes)
("Immortal Songs" strong victor!)
(Amazing!)
How do you keep getting over 400?
I didn't know until you said it just now.
Whatever. You knew.
I really didn't.
Yeah, right!
From what I hear...
I've never met anyone who seemed
that fake with a hand gesture.
I didn't know until you said it just now.
Even his gestures seem insincere.
From what I hear, the show writers didn't know
but found out from an interview with you.
I've never gotten a score of less than 420.
Yes, please add that to the script.
That's what I heard.
That's not true. Anyway...
But I want to get over 420 today.
Which legend will you be singing with?
With Insooni.
Then you'll have to get a perfect score.
I'll do my best.
Dongha, we look forward to your amazing
performance with the charismatic Insooni.
(We look forward to it)
They sing the sweetest harmony.
It's been a while.
Please welcome SWEET SORROW.
(SWEET SORROW)
Which legend will you be singing with?
With Ju Hyunmi.
Ever since I was young, my whole family
loved Ju Hyunmi.
She loved what we put together and praised and
cheered us on to take it in the direction we want to.
- Do what you want. / - Making you feel at ease.
It should be the singers doing as the legends say
but she catered to your needs.
I hear you have a new album?
We have a single out.
It's called "Sign."
"Sign."
Can we hear it?
One, two, three, four.
♪ I just got a sign from your gaze ♪
♪ I felt my eyes kiss yours ♪
♪ That was a sign between us ♪
Wow!
It's amazing!
Hojin's expression seems to be saying "I'm B1A4."
Like he thinks he's an idol of a boy band.
(My seductive sign!)
I'll draw for the first performance.
Dongyeop drew the ball for the first up.
Before, I drew names of the singers so it was fine,
but to knowing I'm drawing a team with the legends,
this feels really stressful.
Please put on a great show for us with the singers
backstage and forgive me for drawing you first.
A legend that transcends generations.
The handsome couple,
she stole the hearts of men with her
innocent, doll-like looks and clear refreshing voice.
The original beautiful songstress.
Today, she'll be singing with an idol
who's a heartthrob these days.
The queen of ballads, Yang Sookyung
and Infinite's Nam Woohyun.
(Number 1 - Yang Sookyung & Nam Woohyun)
(First up, Infinite's Nam Woohyun and Yang Sookyung)
I heard your dad's a big fan of Ms. Yang.
When we'd go on family trips,
he'd always sing her songs in the car.
I heard the song "Love is Like Rain Outside My Window"
quite often.
You know that song.
And "Where's the End of Goodbye?"
You know so many.
What did your dad say when you told him?
He said he wants a picture with her,
so I asked Ms. Yang to take a picture with him
and she said she would.
Your dad must be feeling butterflies.
He and Yang Sookyung are the same age.
They were both born in 1965.
He must be so nervous.
Is your mom here?
No, she's away on business.
She needs to be here.
You have to tell your mom to come! Mom! Come now!
Hello, I'm Yang Sookyung.
Hello, I'm Nam Woohyun.
We're "Forever"!
(With her sweet looks and sentimental voice)
(She was the ballad queen of the 80s and 90s)
(Yang Sookyung)
(Idol with highest score on "Immortal Songs")
(He got 439!)
(Infinite's lead singer, Nam Woohyun!)
(Yang Sookyung & Nam Woohyun)
We're singing "Forever" today
and we "Forever" want to keep the love
of the audience deep in our hearts forever.
So our team is called "Never Ever."
During Ms. Yang's special,
I sang "Unknown Goodbye," which was a huge honor,
so I can't believe I get to go on with her today.
I loved going into practice.
Me too.
Though he's so young,
working with him inspired me because
he's so hardworking.
I loved the beautiful harmony we created as a team.
I hope you'll remember our song fondly in your hearts.
We'll embrace you with our song and never ever let go.
We're "Never Ever."
("Forever" / 1990)
(Na Hoona wrote, composed and released the song)
(Lyrical melody of timeless love tale lyrics)
(Said to be the favorite song of Na Hoona fans)
The first up is Yang Sookyung and Nam Woohyun.
Hello, I'm Yang Sookyung.
Hello, everyone. I'm Nam Woohyun
Since there's so many who fall in love,
we will sing Na Hoona's "Forever,"
dreaming of a world without breakups.
(Na Hoona's "Forever")

("Forever" by Yang Sookyung & Nam Woohyun)
(Deeply moving) Amazing.
That was the best ever.
I remember watching Ms. Yang as a child
and it was just like how I saw her then.
She was so beautiful.
I loved the way they helped each other along
while singing through their gaze.
It was really beautiful.
I don't think we should worry about
who wins or loses today.
I'm sorry but we do.
That's the highlight of our program.
The pride of "Immortal Songs."
All else aside, the fact that a singer
and a legend singing was so beautiful...
Seeing that brings tears to my eyes.
(Beautiful enough to bring tears to eyes)
They're a unique band. Please welcome No Brain.
(One of a kind rock band No Brain)
SWEET SORROW seems like goody-goodies,
but hen...
No Brain seems like the opposite.
They're boys that parents drop off at school,
whereas they're boys who come on their motorcycles.
They have their own style.
Which legend will you be singing with?
We'll be singing with Ms. Kim, the legend of gugak.
Rock and gugak?
If it works out, you'll hit it out of the park.
I cried during practice.
Why?
Because it was so moving.
I've never cried during practice before till now.
What was so moving about it?
Her genuine warmth.
She embraces you.
Tears come with sadness,
but these were tears of joy.
You cried together?
(Oh...)
I didn't cry a lot, but...
You just got teary-eyed?
Yes, and his nose got runny.
He's a huge hit on "Immortal Songs."
Please welcome Min Woohyuk.
(Musical actor Min Woohyuk)
A huge hit on our show.
- The new age star. / - Thank you.
Which legend will you be singing with?
The living legend in the musical world, Nam Gyeongeup.
He's been on before.
- With his brother. / - Right?
(2017 New Year Special!)
(Came on with his brother Nam Gyeongju)
(And put on a moving performance)
(Living legend of musical world, Nam Gyeongeup)
Rather than singing practice,
we worked more on the story and concept.
Since we're both actors,
we discussed a lot about the story behind the song.
Your brows get darker every time.
Is it an expression of your waxing confidence?
No, my makeup artist always watches the show
then tells me I need darker brows.
She's a fan of Crayon Shin-Chan.
(Level 1 / Level 2 / Level 3)
I'll draw the ball for the second performance.
(Nervous)
The legend and the singers have something in common.
While some always look like they're frowning,
others always look to be smiling.
These folks are the smiley faces of the music world.
Hojin's all about smiling.
They're always smiling.
Jung Dongha?
(Is it me?)
They make those watching smile as well.
Their voices are as sweet as their smiles.
Deliverers of happiness.
(Feeling pressured, I'm sorry)
Mr. Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW!
(Number 2 - Ju Hyunmi & SWEET SORROW)
(Four men with sweet voices are up!)
Whenever Dongyeop draws a ball,
my heart skips a beat because
they have to sing with a legend.
We've always thought of "Immortal Songs" as a festival,
but today's a day I'll forever remember as a singer.
It feels nice.
We'll put on a great show with Ms. Ju
and come back in glory.
Can you do an impression before you go, Jinhwan?
I had no idea you'd be up so soon.
Can you do an impression of Ms. Ju?
I've never tried it.
♪ Between the faint light ♪
You sound like Lee Seunghwan.
That's how he'd sing trot music.
Let's go, SWEET SORROW and Ju Hyunmi!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Ms. Ju.
We're second up!
I'm worried if I'll do alright.
You'll do fine.
Let's enjoy ourselves.

(Ju Hyunmi & SWEET SORROW)
Whenever she was on TV, we all felt happy.
When there was a closeup of her,
it's how she smiles as she sings
and those dimples!
My parents were so happy to hear
we were singing with Ms. Ju,
so I felt moved by how thrilled they were.
Me too.
There aren't any other shows that allow you
to sing with younger singers like this.
SWEET SORROW taught me so much preparing for the show.
I left the show and what to sing in their hands.
We chose Ms. Ju's "The Man from Sinsa"
and "Rain Upon Yeongdong Bridge."
- Boys? / - Yes?
Let's go up there and have some fun.
Let's go!
("The Man from Sinsa" / 1988)
(Top trot song of the 80s)
(Song that was even popular among teens)
(She earned her title as Queen of Trot after this song)
(She topped music charts with this song)
(Leading a new trot trend in Korea)
Am I shaking right now?
Am I?
Let's do a cheer.
It's an honor, Ms. Ju.
Same here.
Let's go have fun!
Let's have some fun!
One, two, three.
The second performance is by
Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW.
(Trot goddess descends!)

(By Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW)
Thank you.
Oh no. I got teary-eyed.
I got choked up.
Amazing.
(Thank you for being with us!)
Wow.
(Exciting, moving, perfect synergy)
I got chills.
I bet this was like a gift to Ms. Ju.
It's a moment for her to remember.
It's been so long since we've seen her
and she looks just as she did before.
I wish Ms. Ju would come on
the show again.
- Yes. / - You know what I mean?
When she walked onstage, her aura was something else.
She had charisma and her gestures were amazing.
(Every gesture was a delight)
I still have goosebumps.
You might as well be a goose.
Your right arm does look cold.
And your left side's sweaty
but the right arm's cold.
Ms. Ju was awesome too,
but SWEET SORROW harmonized with her
as she was singing up front,
the harmony really filled up the stage.
It was like they were her wings.
Yeah.
That's what I thought too, and another intriguing thing
was she's so beautiful and hasn't aged a day.
When she got the main spotlight
with SWEET SORROW by her side,
it was like we went back in time
and SWEET SORROW traveled in a time machine
to be there with her.
I got chills.
(Miracle collaboration between past and present)
(Yang Sookyung & Woohyun vs Ju Hyunmi & SWEET SORROW)
What surprised me was
how much Woohyun adored Ms. Yang.
It's not typical,
and his father's a huge fan of hers.
I wondered how you were able to sing
staring into the other's eyes like that.
How was it, Woohyun?
I did it so my dad could live vicariously through me.
What a great son you are.
You two were great together.
Did you feel any pressure to be practicing
with him since you're a legend?
Before, I came on the show and he sang my song,
so thanks to that, it was easier working together.
Right, to be able to sing together.
It was as if we were breathing as one.
I enjoyed it very much.
Ms. Ju, how did you like it?
You can't find another event like this.
Right.
I love SWEET SORROW's acapella
and love their harmony. It's like a treasure.
Through their singing, they created a place
for me to comfortably enter.
I was so grateful.
I was very happy to sing with them.
This was like a festival.
- It was probably an unforgettable experience. / - Yes.
Thank you.
SWEET SORROW, what did you think?
We became singers, we came on this show
and got to sing with a legend, Ms. Ju,
and my mom cried when I said we would sing with Ms. Ju.
It's been a moving experience.
Your parents will surely think you're a success now,
seeing you on the show like this.
Ms. Kim Yeongim, what did you think of the performance?
I thought it was so beautiful
and felt happy I chose to be a gugak singer.
To be able to partake in an event like this
isn't something just anyone can do.
I'm really happy.
Please give the legends a round of applause.
(But the judging is for the singers to bear)
Please show us how the audience voted.

Great job.
I'll draw for the third performance.
What do they have in common?
They're all very energetic.
It's Dongha.

I'm not very energetic.
They command the stage with passion and charisma.
They always try to do new things too.

Today's performance will blow your mind.
Everyone watching from home should
get some medicine to calm your hearts.
I'm so glad I chose to sing with them
because they're so energetic.
They work so hard during practice, which I loved.
We're polar opposites on the music spectrum.
The East meets West harmony
makes for a great match.
What was your first impression of them?
Runaway sons.
They don't let others shape their music.
They express themselves in all honesty onstage.
I watched them intently when they sang before,
and now, I've come to learn how warm they are too.
That's what I feel from them.
What will you be singing?
We'll sing "About 500 Years"
and if you look at the lyrics,
you'll be reminded of your parents every line.
A song you can't leave out when you
think of Korean songs: "Arirang."
So we'll sing "About 500 Years" and "Arirang"
and help you get lost in their rhythm completely.

("About 500 Years" & "Arirang")
(By Kim Yeongim and No Brain)
Rock 'n' roll!
Ms. Kim Yeongim sang "Arirang"
filled with a feeling of joys and sorrows in life.
With that powerful melody,
I don't know why but it made me cry.
It would make a great
closing ceremony song for the Olympics.
Ms. Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW were so strong
that it seems they won't be beaten right away.
We can't tell who'll win with these acts.
But who do you think will win?
Deep down inside.
With this energy...
Be honest. Be honest.
I've always been honest.
Tell us who you honestly think will win.
I think it'll be No Brain and Ms. Kim Yeongim.
With how many points?
- 421. / - Nice.
No Brain's music sounds like the beating of a heart.
I thought I'd become paralyzed.
Look at him and his comments.
He's changed.
He's like an even bigger Dongha.
But I meant it.
Dongha always says he's telling "the truth" too.
- So this is how it feels. / - All the time.
Tellers of tall tales use their hands often.
Jungha does and so did you.
(Ms. Kim Yeongim and No Brain vs)
(Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW with 418)
She's the first gugak singer to sell 1 million albums.
Ms. Kim is a gugak singer with
45 years of experience under her belt.
They released powerful energy onstage.
What did you think of No Brain usually?
They look like they'd be full of swagger,
so I thought they were a bit strange,
but they were so warm after I got to know them
and they supported my decisions.
- Right. / - Thank you.
The producers said No Brain cried a lot
during practice.
When Ms. Kim was singing,
it felt like she was warmly embracing us,
telling us, "I know how tough it's been,
I know you're not the best looking
but I'll hug you anyway."
So I burst into tears without meaning to.
I cried a bit during rehearsal too.
To celebrate your 45th year as a gugak singer,
you held a special event, right?
I started a nationwide tour on April 22nd,
starting at the Sejong Cultural Center.
Please come and join me. Thank you.
Legends, please step down from the stage.
Insooni.
What did you think of the performance?
Every time I see her perform,
I feel an ache in my heart and get chills.
And hearing rock and gugak together
moved me even more than gugak alone.
I wonder how the audience voted.
Show us the results!

They leave your heart aching and move you.
They're also very charismatic

(What kind of performance do they have planned?)
Woohyun's back.
Nam Woohyun!
You were amazing.
You expressed the song so well that
I wanted to hear you sing a pure ballad song alone.
- I was on Ms. Yang's special. / - You were.
And I wanted to sing "Where's the End of Goodbye?"
A classic.
I came to the set and Muzie was there singing it.
I really hated him at that moment.
I really wanted to sing the song.
Why don't you sing it for us today?
It's a song I really love.
♪ Shall I find someone new to love? ♪
♪ Where's the end of goodbye? ♪
The song seemed to go well with you.
The way you sang the lyrics made us reflect
on old memories.
It's amazing that you're able
to convey all that through singing.
- Heart! / - Heart!
I like having Chiyeul here.
He used to coach us during rehearsals.
- He gave you vocal lessons? / - Yes.
Woohyun used to do so many performances back then
and he had to do "Immortal Songs" too.
He worked so hard preparing for the show
but he didn't have time, so I arranged his song
and sent him a guide demo tape.
Hello. I'm Jun Inkwon.
I'm Park Kiyoung.
(Unique charisma)
(Godfather of Korean rock, who debuted 39 years ago!)
(Singers with most charisma on the show)
(Voices that draws audience in)
(Partnership of two powerful singers)
(Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung)
Kiyoung used to be in a band, just like me.
In a band, you hear each other's sounds
and figure out how you mesh together best.
This song's like that.
It's called "Beautiful Rivers and Mountains"
and the sounds are
so appealing for that kind of collaborative work.
We want to sing the song
for you so you can really enjoy it.
Let's go!
- Let's go! / - One, two, three.
Let's go!
("Beautiful Rivers and Mountains" / 1972)
(Original song was released in 1972)

(It gained fame when Lee Sunhee released it)
(In 1988 in the fourth album)
(Lee sang the song during the 1988 Olympics)
(Gaining the love of the nation, becoming a huge star)
Fourth up is Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung.
Hello.
We're going to sing "Beautiful Rivers and Mountains."
Mr. Jun will tell you about the song.
I like this song because each word holds
beautiful rivers and mountains.
It contains Korea.
Here's "Beautiful Rivers and Mountains."
I'm usually in bed at this hour.

(By Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung)
(Stepping off the stage after outpour of passion)
That was fun.
I had so much fun.
Wow. (Amazing)
Dongha, what did you think?
It felt organic.
- What? / - Organic.
Organic?
It was like a flood of
nature's liveliness and full of energy.
I want to do a performance like that.
I suddenly have the desire to perform with him too.
Mr. Jun Inkwon's as powerful as ever.
Didn't he seem like Leon?
(Like Leon and Mathilda!)
Leon. I like that.
You felt like Kiyoung was like Mathilda.
(Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung vs)
(Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW with 418)
We're holding a concert too.
(Sudden announcement)
At the Sejong Cultural center
and in Chungju and Cheongju.
We haven't decided when after that.
Last May, you did a performance with Lee Hi.
(Sang with Lee Hi on the Month of Thanks Special)
(Moved audience with "That Along was My World"!)
Today, you sang with Kiyoung.
You don't like singing with male singers?
I'm really curious.
It's not that fun.
- Right? / - Yes.
Did you enjoy performing with Kiyoung?
It was amazing.
Kiyoung has a great voice,
but I was really floored.
I hope this will remain a memorable experience.
Please step down from the stage.
Give them a round of applause.
I wonder how the audience voted.
Show us your results.
(Checking results)
(Enchantment of the eyes and ears)
(Performance that soothed the soul)
(Fantastic harmony)
Will SWEET SORROW get their third win with 418?
(Two charismatic singers!)
(Twice the powerhouse energy)
(Great stage presence)
The charismatic vocalists' duet.
Will Mr. Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung be able to beat
Ms. Ju Hyunmi and SWEET SORROW?
Who will win?
(Who did the audience choose?)
(Audience chose Jun Inkwon & Park Kiyoung with 434)
Wow! 434!
(Congratulations!)
- Thank you. / - Another round of applause, please.
Congratulations! Thank you.
With 434, Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung
are the new winners.
That was a 16-point jump.
A whopping 434 points.
(Kiyoung runs over out of joy)
Mr. Jun!
(More fun and meaningful together)
Thank you.
I'll select the fifth performance now.
Dongha should go up right about now.
This pair has a lot in common.
They have a similar look about them.
It's not me.
They both have flawless skills
with killer charms, capturing women's hearts.
Two handsome men of two generations.
Musical legend Nam Gyeongeup
and new age musical actor Min Woohyuk.
(Legend Nam Gyeongeup and partner Woohyuk's plans)
Woohyuk, tell us how you plan to go about this.
I get to have the honor of singing
with him at such a great event,
so I'll put forth all the passion I can
and do my best to show you the best that I can.
He's the hot star of "Immortal Songs" these days.
Woohyuk, the rising star!
I wonder what he'll show us today.
Let's go, Min Woohyuk!
- Let's go! / - Let's go!
(I'm nervous)
(Why is he so nervous?)
The score's too high.
Today's collaboration I'm sure will be memorable
but I bet there's one you hold dear.
Dongha, which one was most memorable?
You're asking me?
For me,
I wondered, "Will I ever get the chance
to do this again?"
when I did it with the late Kim Hyunsik.
We remember.
(Sang "Like Rain, Like Music" with childhood hero)
(Unforgettably exciting)
I felt like I was actually doing a duet with him.
I got chills and I'll remember it
for a long time to come.
Woohyun, do you have an unforgettable collaboration?
A collaboration performance?
The one with Sungkyu.
We sang "Sunny Days will Come."
(Sang with Sungkyu for the 2012 Big Four of Trot)
Chiyeul did that for us too.
I did the lineup for that.
I came here for that too.
- Really? / - He watched me.
I was backstage helping him.
All these came together to create the 300th episode.
- It makes it all the more special. / - It does.
I'm musical actor Nam Gyeongeup.
Hello. I'm musical actor Min Woohyuk.
(Started musicals in 1978, has done 90 musicals)
(Living legend of musical world, Nam Gyeongeup)
(Handsome and has a great singing voice)
(Popular "Immortal Songs" contestant, Min Woohyuk)
(Handsome men of musicals, Nam Gyeongeup & Min Woohyuk)
300.
- It's amazing. / - It really is.
Congratulations from the bottom of our hearts!
You'll invite us for the 500th episode too, right?
We'll sing Kim Soochul's "A Flower Yet to Bloom."
It's such an honor to be singing
with a musical veteran whom I admire so much.
I prepared for this filled with joy
and felt so moved.
Hey, there handsome Woohyuk!
Yes, Gyeongeup?
Let's go!
("A Flower Yet to Bloom" / 1983)
(Title track of Kim Soochul's first solo album)
(With refreshing lyrics and lyrical sentiment)
(The song was considered one of the greatest songs)
(In Korea and sold over 200,000 copies in four months)
(Kim Soochul won the 1984 KBS Grand Prize)
(MBC named him one of the top ten singers in Korea)
(He won 16 awards and was hugely popular)
The fifth performance is by
musical actors, Nam Gyeongeup and Min Woohyuk.
Hello.
I'm musical actor Nam Gyeongeup.
I'm musical actor Min Woohyuk. It's great to see you.
This is such an honor.
Today, I'll be singing with the living legend of
the musical world, Mr. Nam Gyeongeup.
We'll be singing Kim Soochul's "A Flower Yet to Bloom."
The song's about how one longs for a loved one.
Right.
Around this time of the year, you remember that certain
person we put together this piece with that in mind.
For some, it can be a friend or family
and to others an old love. We hope
it's a moment of passing memories for you.
We'll give it our best shot.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
Let's go!
("A Flower Yet to Bloom" by Nam Gyeongeup & Woohyuk)
I miss you.
In your next life,
I hope you can be surrounded by
your loved ones for a long time.
I won't forget you.

(Sniffling)
(Resonance the two men made you feel deeply)
Nam Gyeongeup and Min Woohyuk
sang "A Flower Yet to Bloom."
It's a song that made you think, right?
I'm sure it brought painful memories for many people.
What did you think, Minjoon?
It was like a young boy was lost
and his older brother and his father
were singing, praying to find him.
It was warm and moving.
I wanted to pray along with them.
What did you think, Hojin?
It felt like a musical.
This is my first time seeing Woohyuk.
His looks leave me at a loss for words.
Your looks leave me at a loss for words too.
Wow. You leave me at a loss for words too.
(Jun Inkwon and Park Kiyoung with 434 vs)
(Nam Gyeongeup and Min Woohyuk)
I bet it must be quite hard to describe.
Woohyuk, how did it feel when you were
asked to do a duet with him?
I wondered how I was given such an honor.
I still can't believe it.
Creating this performance with a musical icon like him
will forever remain with me as a precious memory.
Mr. Nam, you put together a show with
a fellow musical actor who's just starting out.
How did it feel?
It was nerve-racking nonetheless.
My heart skipped a beat.
And the fact I got to work with such a great young
actor for this show, how we stayed up nights
talking about what direction to take the song in,
is in and of itself very moving.
- I loved it. / - I see.
Thank you.
Please step down.
Thank you.
Ms. Ju, what did you think of the performance?
I was totally moved.
My heart felt heavy.
I've listened to "A Flower Yet to Bloom"
so many times before but
I've never felt it pierce through me as it did today.
It was amazing.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
(Feeling proud)
Let's see how the audience voted.
Please show us how they voted.

Will Mr. Nam and Woohyuk become the new winners?

(Audience chose Nam Gyeongeup & Min Woohyuk with 436)
436!
They won by two votes!
With a mere two points, they got 436!
Mr. Nam and Woohyuk are the new number one.
- Thank you. / - Let's go!
(Great job!)
(Mr. Nam!)
(Yay!)
I can't believe it.
This is unbelievable.
Dongha and Ms. Insooni are left now.
The votes jumped really high.
436 is high enough to take home the trophy.
Right.
Tell us how you plan to go about this.
Since I've ended up going later,
I tend to want to win more, but today, I feel at ease.
How come?
I will put winning on the backburner
and focus on enjoying the performance with Ms. Insooni.
We look forward to the truthful Dongha
giving us a great performance.
Let's go, Jung Dongha and Insooni!
- Let's go! / - Let's go!
It would've been nice to go
first to get it out of the way.
But it's alright to go last at times.
You think?
- Yes, going dead last is good. / - Okay.
Kiyoung's back.
You were so passionate and free-spirited.
It was like you belted out all that you had bottled up.
It was as if a dragon sprouted from your lips.
It felt cathartic, even for me.
I'm sure you have many anecdotes to tell
and lots of memorable shows.
Tell us about a performance that was memorable for you.
We performed with a legend a long time ago.
- Oh yeah. / - We did the can can dance.
We did "Summer Jingle Bell" with Jung Jaehyung.
That's a painful memory for me.
We have a clip.
It's the music fairy, Jung Jaehyung.
Give him a round of applause!
(Music fairy)
(Battling with all he had to win)
(But lost right away)
(They somersaulted in the shock of losing)
All I could see was your smile, Jaehyung.
It was dark but your teeth glowed.
You were smiling brightly yet awkwardly.
(My teeth are important to me)
- I'm Insooni. / - I'm Jung Dongha.
(Started off in trio of the Hee Sisters!)
(Queen of onstage charisma!)
(Loved by all, unbound by genre!)
(Smooth and charismatic)
(Husky voice that captures women's hearts)
(Passionate diva Insooni)
(And elegant singer Jung Dongha)
I love how he gets into the music emotionally.
I said I'd want to sing with him if
given the chance to do a collaboration.
I was so moved to hear her sing this that
I wanted to sing it too.
It makes me think of my father
but it's not just him.
I think of my mom too.
It's about your parents
and the yearning that comes forth.
We want to sing what that message is all about.
We'll do our best to be one with the song.
("Father" / 2009)
(Included in Insooni's 17th album)
(The song was not successful upon release)
(It topped charts two years later)
(Insooni said that she forgave)
(Her father through this song)
(And learned to understand him)
(To the honorable finale!)
Let's go!
This is the sixth and final performance.
Insooni and Jung Dongha.
(It's been a long wait)
Hello, I'm Jung Dongha!
And I'm Insooni.
I'll sing this song with a feeling of longing.

(Express your love for him right now)
(Long silence left by the song)
This song leaves you aching every time.
That was Ms. Insooni and Donga singing "Father."
It's completely different hearing a guy sing it.
A father and son relationship is different
and he showed us that difference.
My dad's in the audience right now
and to think about how he was listening to the song
tugged at my heartstrings a bit.
You need time to open up, but it's too short,
and when the time passes, he's gone.
The song says time doesn't wait for you.
We as children must take the first step
to open up to our fathers.
"Immortal Songs" can make you cry and laugh.
Today's 300th episode special appeals
to me in a whole different way.
Can you share how you felt?
I was a kid playing with toys
when I listened to their songs.
They were singers who were on TV then
and they were right there onstage with us.
I've gained so much from today's show.
This has been a meaningful day,
creating music with the legends.
I fear moments like this will soon fade.
I'd like to thank "Immortal Songs" for creating
a space like this for us
and inviting us on the show.
(Insooni and Jung Dongha vs)
(Nam Gyeongeup and Min Woohyuk with 436)
You seemed to get choked up at the end.
When I sing this song, I tell myself
not to think anything at all,
but I fail to do so every single time.
Dongha, I'm sure all the singers will agree,
but today was a huge honor, wasn't it?
How was it for you?
It felt like a dream.
That's how happy I felt,
and even now, it's not about winning or losing.
I was happy to take part in the show.
I see. It's great to see you. It's been too long.
Please give Ms. Insooni another big round of applause.
We're so grateful to the legends who
came on the show without hesitation
for our 300th episode special to
create amazing performances with the younger singers.
Thank you once again.
Please give them a round of applause.
Ms. Yang Sookyung?
Yes?
Will you tell us how you felt being on the show?
I'm happy to be a part of this show.
I feel honored and happy to be among such
true legends today.
I don't know how I was even invited to join
the legends. It's a huge honor.
Thank you.
For all the beautiful younger singers who think
so highly of us, I hope you are rewarded
with good fortune time and time again.
Thank you.
It was great to perform with younger singers.
And congratulations to "Immortal Songs"
on its 300th episode.
Thank you.
Singers who performed with the legends
must've felt pure joy
and this will be a memorable moment forever.
Thank you all for giving them such a gift.
