Immortal Songs, Singing the Legend.
Today, we'll take the time to miss
someone who left us beautiful songs
and great memories.
His great songs made the hearts of youths cry.
He is also the pioneer of the Korean ballad.
Today's legend is composer Lee Younghoon!
(Without anyone knowing)
(I cried while wandering around)
(The things gone by)
(Pierced into my heart)
(Lee Moonsae's music partner)
(Genius composer, Lee Younghoon)
(He made poetic music about youth and love.)
(Love can get tiring)
(The solitude within me is overflowing)
(Use me as a tool for music)
(to help express the beautiful emotions)
(that moves people through music.)
(The moment they hear that song,)
(allow them to be moved and to be able)
(to remember that moment. Lee Younghoon)
(Composer Lee Younghoon passed away)
(on February 14 of 2008.)
(He's gone, but his songs)
(never left us for a single moment.)

(Cheon Danbi)
(Who will be the winner of today's special?)
Immortal Songs,
- Singing the Legend! / - Singing the Legend!
(Immortal Songs, Singing the Legend)
He's our rocker, Kim Kyungho!
Nice to see you.
(Korean rocker, Kim Kyungho)
- Kyungho. / - Yes?
You sang "Amor Fati" on the last show.
Now, that song will remind us of you.
("Kim Kyungho's "Amor Fati" Has Class")
("Kim Kyungho Wins with 439 Votes")
("Kim Kyungho Wins with 439 Votes")
You have over 280,000 views.
Also, someone else became
- a hot topic. / - Who?
Someone was headbanging along with him.
That's right.
That headbanging was really something.
It was very intense. You received good reviews.
Yes. Thank you so much.
I was worried when I was arranging it,
but so many people saw it
and gave me positive criticism.
I can't ask for more if people enjoyed it.
We'll look forward to your stage today.
Thank you!
They're the leads of musical "Kinky Boots."
It's Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim!
(Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
I figured if Kim Jiwoo is on the show today,
Raymond Kim would be joining us too.
However, you brought someone else today.
Yes. This person is a great singer.
I heard he's famous.
Also, I think many people know him because of KBS.
(Kolleen Park)
(As for this man,)
(he was on "Qualifications of Men")
(eight years ago with Immortal Songs' director.)
(He even evaluated Hwang Chiyeul.)
(This is him.)
(He's back as Lola in "Kinky Boots.")
(This tall man shows off voluptuous charms.)
(Hot musical actor, Choi Jaerim)
- Lola is a drag queen. / - Yes.
- That's very hard. / - I thought
you might have some feminine attributes.
That's the part I worried about the most.
At first, I was shy with even a hand movement.
But the more shows I did, it became easier for me.
Instead of just talking about it,
let us hear an excerpt from the show.
- Without any makeup? / - Yes.
I'll say the lines first.
These days, guys keep on fainting in front of me.
Let's see who will faint here tonight.
(Leave expectations)
(At the door)
(Just let your eyes explore)
(My cinematic flair)
(From my boot to derriere)
(I've got a lacy silken feel)
♪ I am freedom, I'm constriction ♪
♪ A potpourri of contradiction ♪
What a body.
You're a great singer,
but you can dance well too.
As far as I know,
Choi Jaerim is one of the top five vocalists
in the musical industry.
- Really? / - Yes.
- We'll look forward. / - Thank you.
(We'll look forward to your stage.)
He's the ballad prince, Tei.
(Ballad prince, Tei)
Tei, it's been so long.
- Yes. / - What happened?
I think it's been about a year.
- That's right. / - Yes.
Almost a year?
I was a little excited, but worried as well.
Why?
I might not be able to catch up to the trend.
I realized I'm the only one singing solo.
I never imagined this to happen.
You look like a skinny wide-eyed elephant.
A skinny elephant. A handsome one.
You're so cool.
Your father always urges you to sing powerfully.
Will we be able to see it today?
Since I don't want him to yell at me,
I didn't tell him about today's show.
More than focusing on the strength,
I want to talk about what happened these days.
- I see. / - Yes.
We'll look forward to Tei's performance.
I will now pick our first performer.
Shin Dongyeop has picked the first ball.
This person will be performing first.
When this person first appeared on television,
their family went into a state of crisis.
The singer participated
in a song festival and won bronze.
Instead of being congratulated for the win,
this person was found out
to have pursued music without telling anyone.
Their father used a wooden poker to...
- Is it Kim Kyungho? / - Kim Kyungho?
A wooden poker...
That must be Kim Kyungho.
Now, he became a son
his parents are proud of. They will forever be...
He is a rocker, Kim Kyungho.
(Kim Kyungho)
(No way.)
I can't believe it.
He is the only singer in the room
whose generation used a wooden poker.
Other singers wondered what a wooden poker is.
"What is that?"
Vromance was like, "What is a wooden poker?"
- Kyungho... / - I was confused at first.
I remember the incident now.
In 1989,
he won bronze in a KBS song festival.
How was I supposed to remember that?
It's too far back in time.
A wooden poker is used to pick up briquettes.
That's right. A wooden poker.
My father rarely beat me.
On that day, I received a severe beating.
- A severe beating! / - My goodness.
- He was opposed to it. / - I almost died.
Although you met your parents' opposition,
you overcame the struggles.
Kyungho, you are picked as the first performer.
Please say a few words.
Okay. I will show you what I have prepared.
A rocker with a beautiful voice,
- Kim Kyungho, let's go! / - Let's go!
(Kim Kyungho, let's go.)
Let's go.
- Let's go! / - Let's go!
Let's go.
How have you been? I am Kim Kyungho.
It's good to see you.
(In Kim Yonja and Lee Hoseop Special,)
(he turned "Amor Fati" into a rock song.)
(He became the winner with a score of 439.)
Congratulations.
The next day was a pleasant surprise.
Junior singers called me and asked,
"Why is 'Amor Fati' your related search?"
I didn't know that my bold attempt
would gain an enthusiastic response.
I was very proud of myself.
I chose a song by the late Lee Younghoon,
"Gwanghwamun Love Song."
Everyone has a different taste.
Some people like a certain melody
while others like another melody.
There was a man who could make a melody
that transcends people's different tastes.
(He composed a song everyone loves.)
That was who Lee Younghoon was.
How will I sing "Gwanghwamun Love Song"
with a sound of a band and a twist?
It's an expectation I feel obligated to meet.
That's why I added a twist at the very end.
I prepared to sing "Gwanghwamun Love Song."
I will do my very best to touch people's hearts.
Kim Kyungho, let's go.
("Gwanghwamun Love Song" is a masterpiece)
(that tells a love story by the stone-wall road.)
(In 2008, a memorial stone was put on Jeongdong-gil.)
(In 2011, a musical with the same name premiered.)
Here comes the first performer, Kim Kyungho.
(The first performance by Kim Kyungho)
(Kim Kyungho)
("Gwanghwamun Love Song" by Kim Kyungho)
(A song by Lee Younghoon lives in our hearts,)
("Gwanghwamun Love Song" by Kim Kyungho)
My goodness.
Lee Moonsae sang "Gwanghwamun Love Song."
Kim Kyungho's version
was very dramatic.
Nani, you seem surprised.
What did you think about the performance?
I fell in love.
I was on Immortal Songs with Kim Kyungho before.
I don't know if I am in a place to say this,
but I think it was the best performance.
His emotions were controlled.
(It made the performance more sorrowful.)
A vocal group, Vromance is here.
(A talented vocal group, Vromance)
Introducing yourself should come first.
Please make it happen right away.
We will introduce ourselves.
- ♪ We are the Vromance ♪ / - ♪ We are coming for you ♪
- Hello, we are Vromance. / - Hello, we are Vromance.
We wanted to hear Vromance's introduction.
Voisper often performs on Immortal Songs.
Hello, we are Voisper. Happy New Year!
I think the two groups are similar.
We haven't taken a win on Immortal Songs.
- But they won. / - That's right.
They won just as we were starting to work hard,
so we got all quiet.
(Intimidated)
This is your third time on the show.
Are you guys confident today?
We're very determined today.
"Let's make sure the light goes on this time!"
We were so determined to make the light go on,
but our waiting room was right next to Kyungho's.
So we told ourselves, "Let's just have fun today."
"Let's just do it."
So, is Kyungho the only one you're worried about?
(There are so many talented singers here.)
- Oh, no! / - No way!
- Of course not! / - Look at them!
- We didn't mean that. / - Absolutely not.
- We apologize. / - We didn't mean that.
Do you guys think that you can totally beat Tei?
(Shall I teach you a lesson?)
Everyone prepared so much for today.
Let me add one thing.
Tei actually got in touch with me.
- Why? / - "Janghyun,"
"I heard you guys are going on Immortal Songs."
"Do your best."
He sent me such a short message.
- So... / - Wasn't it warm?
Right? What was your actual tone like?
- The tone you used. / - "Janghyun."
"I heard you're going on the show. Do your best."
That's so sweet.
- Why did you change it? / - Why did you do that?
I love you, Tei!
You guys need to make up for it today.
Older artists are very fond of Vromance.
Vromance, best of luck today.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
(You guys)
The hottest rising sentimental vocalist,
Cheon Danbi is here.
When she sings,
we feel as if sweet rain is falling from the sky.
Hence the name, Cheon Danbi.
The last time you were on our show,
you choked up on stage during your performance.
("Cheon Danbi's First Performance as a Singer")
I sang on that stage for years as a backup singer.
I used to see the space very often,
but I had never actually stood there.
Even though it's just a few steps forward.
Actually, all artists I know
- wanted to hire Danbi. / - Really?
Which artists have you performed with?
- To name a few. / - I've sung with Tei.
I've sung as a backup singer for Dongha too.
- Seriously? / - Yes.
When I was promoting "Love Is One,"
- I did a tour in Japan. / - I went with him.
- A concert abroad? / - Yes, we went together.
He was very nice to me.
- Is he a warm person? / - Yes, he is.
We ate so much during the concert tour.
Out of all the backup singers, she ate the most.
I heard that you grew ten centimeters ten years ago.
She grew ten centimeters during Tei's concert tour.
You have many stories and most of us know you well.
- She's our family. / - Yes, exactly.
All of us are happy to see you
and we're looking forward to your performance.
- We can't wait. / - Yes, it'll be great.
(I'll soak your heart with my sentimentality.)
I'll now pick our second performer.
All right, Dongyeop will pick the second performer.
I hear that this performer
has to wear thick makeup these days.
He's been doing an excellent job
with his drag queen character in a musical
and has been flaunting his incredible stage presence.
These two charming actors got together
through the musical, "Kinky Boots."
They're Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim.
(Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
(Shall we have some fun?)
It must be nerve-racking to go second.
Tell us your goal.
Since it's our first performance here,
we'll do our very best.
Jiwoo, tell us how you feel.
What's easier? Being here with Raymon Kim
or performing with Jaerim today?
My husband and I
were here together for Couples Special.
We had the biggest fight ever that day.
- Why did you two fight? / - Well, you know.
When I suggested changing the note slightly to him,
he yelled, "You should try chopping onions too!"
He had such a hard time.
Conversations like that never end.
That's why he made that remark on the show.
He said he wants to cook at KBS' cafeteria
- instead of singing. / - Yes, that's right.
- Tell us your goal. / - I'd like to...
- Gosh. / - Why are you sighing all of a sudden?
- The vibe is different. / - It's quite different.
- We'll change things up. / - They're confident.
Here come the charismatic actors from "Kinky Boots."
- Jiwoo and Jaerim, best of luck! / - Best of luck!
(Good luck, Jiwoo and Jaerim!)
We'll do our best. See you all later.
- Hello. / - Hello. I'm Choi Jaerim.
- I'm Kim Jiwoo. / - Nice to meet you all.
(Captivating visuals)
(They flaunt their lovely charm.)
(Fallen for the red heel)
(Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
I still have LP records with songs
written by Lee Younghoon.
My husband and I listen to them very often.
His music isn't difficult or complicated.
I think he saw music as a powerful tool
with which we can create memories.
We picked "Flying in the Deep Night."
This show commemorates
the tenth anniversary of his passing,
so we thought a lot about how we can arrange
the song in a way that suits us better.
We're very honored to be here
and we'll have a lot of fun on stage today.
- Choi Jaerim... / - And Kim Jiwoo.
- We got this! / - We got this!
Bye!
(Lee Younghoon wrote the song and its lyrics.)
(The upbeat tempo and cheerful melody)
(go very well with Lee Moonsae's calm voice.)
(It has been used as a soundtrack)
(in many shows and movies and many singers)
(have released remakes of the song.)
Here comes the second performers,
musical actors, Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim.
(The second performance by Kim Jiwoo, Choi Jaerim)
(Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
Hello, I'm a musical actor, Choi Jaerim.
Hello, I'm a musical actress, Kim Jiwoo.
("Flying in the Deep Night")
(by Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
Let the show begin.
Ladies and gentlemen,
introducing angels from "Kinky Boots"!
Everyone, together!
(Hope to see you in my dreams again,)
("Flying, Deep in the Night")
(by Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
(Everyone is cheering and exclaiming.)
"Flying, Deep in the Night" is Lee Moonsae's song.
It's one of his most upbeat and cheerful songs.
It was a very upbeat performance.
Even if you haven't seen "Kinky Boots" yet,
you probably can imagine what the musical is like.
It was fantastic.
I love musicals a lot.
- Do you? / - Yes.
I haven't seen "Kinky Boots" yet.
I think I should go see it.
I think he just answered why they came
- to perform. / - I got it.
- They make you want to see the musical. / - Yes.
What did you think, Tei?
It's not easy to be on Immortal Songs.
So you want to show off what you have.
- You're right. / - I could see
how passionate they were about "Kinky Boots."
I was happy because I felt how much
they wanted to share their great show.
It was like a festival.
What kind of festival?
What kind of festival was it like?
It was a fun festival.
- A fun festival? / - Very fun.
Festivals are usually fun, aren't they?
- You're right. / - Festivals can't not be fun.
Sad festivals.
(Kim Kyungho versus Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
When I introduced you earlier,
you said you did music in secret
and your dad went after you to scold you.
Was he angry when you first started growing your hair?
"Must you have"
"your hair long for the music you want to do?"
"I'm not sure if I'm raising a girl or a boy."
But after I became famous,
he worried about my hair getting short.
He's like that.
I see.
Jiwoo and Jaerim.
Jaerim, can you talk about the musical?
There are angels in our show,
they are our colleagues.
They'll come out and say hello.
Angels, please come out.
I brought my angels for Immortal Songs.
You're fine with that, right?
Let's go!
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
Please give them another round of applause.
(Looking over)
Let's see whom...
Suddenly he looks small and lonely.
Doesn't he?
I want those boots.
- I want to try them on. / - Don't you?
I think those boots
will look good on you for your concerts.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Let's see the result.
(The result)
(Kim Kyungho versus Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
It's the first match of Lee Younghoon Special.
Will Kim Kyungho win with "Gwanghwamun Love Song"?
(Eye-catching performance)
Will Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim win against Kim Kyungho?
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Who will be the winner?)
(Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim!
"Kinky Boots"!
With a score of 387,
Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim win against Kim Kyungho!
Kyungho is congratulating them.
Please give them another round of applause.
I can't believe it.
- What? / - Unbelievable.
This is unbelievable.
I'm dumbfounded.
- Wasn't I too nervous? / - Well...
Thank you.
I will now pick our third performer.
This person has returned with spring.
They have sweet voices and deep emotion.
They always touch our hearts.
They're a talented group of vocalists.
It's Vromance.
(Vromance)
- Gosh. / - No.
Vromance.
Is your performance upbeat or sad?
- It's upbeat. / - Upbeat.
- They have a chance. / - Then... You're right.
Then they can win against them.
They have a good chance.
Just once.
I prayed that the light would come on just once.
Please have Voisper in mind.
Get a good energy from them.
How about a competition in good faith?
- Are you all fired up? / - Yes.
- His eyes are fierce. / - I'm ready.
(Strong desire)
- Vromance. / - Good luck!
- Let's go! / - You can do it!
- Go for it. / - Good luck!
They say Lee Younghoon
showed off his talent in composing
since he first started to learn piano.
Nani, you started singing
- since you were young. / - Yes.
I hear you're like a daughter of KBS.
I used to be in KBS Children's Choir.
The first TV show I went on
was "Woorimal Battle."
I wasn't the final winner, but I placed first.
- You're amazing. / - When?
That was before I got married.
I went on that show before getting married.
Thanks to that, I went on "Two Days and One Night."
You also starred in a KBS drama.
- Yes. / - Immortal Songs.
I also went on "Open Concert"
and even "Antiques Roadshow."
- "Antiques Roadshow"? / - Yes.
I was even on "Antiques Roadshow."
Then on the New Year's Day,
Jung Seoksoon should pay KBS
- a visit. / - Yes.
KBS gave birth to her.
- Make a deep bow. / - Like to a father-in-law.
I heard Tei had a unique childhood.
I was this tall when I was in seventh grade.
I grew tall really fast.
A new track and field coach
came to my school from Seoul.
I was tall and strong.
So he asked me to join track and field.
I thought I was going to be a runner.
- High jump or sprint. / - Right.
I could do a high jump, sprint or long jump.
But he gave me a weight for shot put.
- What? Shot put? / - Yes.
You have to throw the shot with your arm.
When I threw it before getting trained, it went 12m.
- That's far. / - At the time,
eight meters was the record for grade schoolers.
- What? / - Gosh.
- You were like Hulk. / - If you were that good,
you could've been a national athlete.
The coach started making calls.
- Of course. / - "I found a prodigy."
"I found a monster in a countryside."
After four months, I went to a national competition.
They handed me the shot.
The shot the coach gave me was this small.
But what they gave me was this big.
- The shot was bigger. / - Yes.
It was for the lower grades.
The coach gave me one for the lower grades.
It was for kids under ten years old.
I threw it really far because it was so small.
They gave me a bigger one and I couldn't throw it.
- It was so heavy. / - I wouldn't go far.
Did it fall right in front of you?
All my friends from town came to cheer for me.
What was the result?
I was so embarrassed.
I threw it with all my strength.
It went five meters and seven centimeters.
Five meters and seven centimeters.
(Vromance says hi.)
- Hi, we're Vromance. / - Hi, we're Vromance.
(Four different voices in harmony)
(Talented vocalist group, Vromance)
It's the late composer Lee Younghoon Special.
After a long consideration,
we chose "Sunset Glow."
We grew up listening to this song.
It's a famous song that everyone knows.
We're confident today
because we get to do what we do best.
Vromance will do the best.
- ♪ We're Vromance ♪ / - ♪ We're coming for you ♪
- We're Vromance. Thanks. / - We're Vromance. Thanks.
We hope to win once.
(Lee Moonsae's fifth album,)
(which features "Sunset Glow,")
(is considered one of the three legendary albums)
(released by Lee Moonsae)
(in collaboration with Lee Younghoon.)
(A lot of younger singers rearranged the song)
(and released it. The song is loved)
(by various generations transcending time.)
(In 2011, it was featured in a high school text.)
Here comes the third performer, Vromance.
(The third performance by Vromance)
(Vromance)
("Sunset Glow" by Vromance)
Are you ready to enjoy this?
If you are, let's go!
Let's scream.
Let's scream one more time.
Jump.
Thank you.
(We miss you more when the sun is setting.)
("Sunset Glow" by Vromance)
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
That was so good.
(It's the perfect finale.)
It was so good.
When Voisper sees this stage,
they will feel threatened.
A lot of artists covered
- "Sunset Glow" before. / - That's right.
When they get too ambitious,
- the song can get ruined. / - Yes.
It wasn't like that. It was very fresh.
When it finished, it felt so good.
It was a very clean stage.
Who do you think will win?
I think Vromance will win.
- Is it their first win? / - I'm getting a feeling.
The current score is 387.
How many votes will they win with?
- I got it. / - Well?
They'll get 402 votes.
- It sounds realistic. / - I think he's right.
I think it could be 402 votes.
- 402. / - 402.
Vromance,
is this your third time on Immortal Songs?
- Yes. / - Yes.
Unfortunately, you never had your light turn on.
- No. / - No.
The light isn't actually important on the show,
but young people could develop nyctophobia.
I'm worried.
We can't go to dark places.
Is that so?
They keep their lights on when they sleep.
We have a close vocal group named Voisper.
Yes, Voisper.
- They won before. / - That's right.
We asked them to share their winning energy.
We want to win just once.
We got their energy yesterday.
I see.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Let's see the result.
(The result)
(Vromance versus Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
(An exciting musical stage)
Will Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim
win for the second time with 387 votes?
Or will Vromance win for the first time?
(A cheerful and harmonious stage)
(Vromance is aiming for a single win.)
(Vromance versus Kim Jiwoo and Choi Jaerim)
(Did the Immortal Songs' spirit come today?)
(Vromance)
It's 401!
It's 401!
With 401 votes, Vromance wins!
Jung Dongha pretty much got it on the dot.
He said 402 votes.
- When I closed my eyes, / - Did you feel it?
- I could see it. / - You could see it?
- You were off by one. / - With 401 votes,
they get their first win.
It's their first win on Immortal Songs.
(Part Two will continue in a minute.)
Shin Dongyeop will pick the fourth ball.
Who will get picked next?
This person was voted
as the number one singer Immortal Songs' staff
want to have dinner with.
This is because this person's table
always gets the most food.
They always get freebies.
At the restaurant in front of KBS,
the employees love him the most.
They get a lot of freebies when they are with him.
He is Jung Dongha.
(Jung Dongha)
After predicting Vromance's win,
you will compete against them.
What will be your fate?
Will you beat Vromance?
- Do you sense it? / - Yes, I can.
(They are focused on Dongha.)
What will happen? Who will win?
- I perform diligently / - Then what happens?
and exit the stage.
Everyone exits the stage.
Who do you think will win?
- Make a prediction. / - I'm not sure.
We can translate his words.
"I will win."
"Don't worry." He is confident.
He is a vocalist restaurant employees love.
- A rocker, Jung Dongha, let's go! / - Let's go!
(A rocker who is loved, Jung Dongha, let's go!)
- Let's go! / - Let's go!
Hello, I am Jung Dongha.
The song I chose is "I Don't Know Yet."
I feel like every word of the lyrics contains emotions.
I wish he had stayed longer
to compose more great songs.
I am filled with emotions.
I want to give a calm performance like a recital
with three guitars, three string instruments,
and percussion.
I will perform with seven musicians.
Please listen to the story of the musicians.
("I Don't Know Yet" is the title song)
(of Lee Moonsae's third album.)
(Lee Younghoon composed the song with a pain)
(of his mother's death and a breakup at the age of 25.)
Here comes the fourth performer, Jung Dongha.
(The fourth performance by Jung Dongha)
(Jung Dongha)
Hello.
("I Don't Know Yet" by Jung Dongha)
(A longing that became a cry,)
("I Don't Know Yet" by Jung Dongha)
Thank you.
I really don't know who will win.
I can't believe what I just saw.
That was incredible.
"I Don't Know Yet" by Lee Moonsae.
The musical accompaniment was incredible.
Dongha's voice complimented it nicely.
- It was so good. / - How should I put it?
It contained the scent of a man in his early 40s.
There was the sexiness of a seasoned man.
- Dongha is in his 40s. / - I'm in my early 40s.
Do I have that scent?
People who sat next to me made good predictions.
In this seat, Dongha predicted Vromance's score.
- Tei... / - Gain energy from shot put.
Throw us your idea.

Vromance, for the first time
in your three visits,
you took a win.
What did you think of Dongha's performance?
Firstly, after seeing him perform,
I thought, "This is how a performance should be."
I realized how precious it was
- to be on stage. / - I see.
What would be the result?
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
(The result)
(Vromance versus Jung Dongha)
(An upbeat performance, "Sunset Glow")
Will Vromance continue
their winning streak with a score of 401?
Jung Dongha put on an intense performance.
Will he win against Vromance?
(A charming performance, "I Don't Know Yet")
(Vromance versus Jung Dongha)
It's...
- That's it! / - Gosh!
Oh, my gosh!
(Jung Dongha)
It's a score of 429.
A score of 429.
Jung Dongha is a fighter.
He wins against Vromance.
Amazing.
Please give Vromance
and Jung Dongha another round of applause.
I will now pick our fifth performer.
Out of all the female singers
that were on Immortal Songs,
I think she's the tallest.
(The tallest female singer?)
- Cheon Danbi! / - Let's go.
She's the next Immortal Song's diva.
It's the new tallest diva.
It's Cheon Danbi.
(Cheon Danbi)
Dongyeop called you the tallest diva.
Do you like that nickname?
- Yes. / - The tallest diva.
- I like it. / - Isn't that unique?
- It's unique. / - Right.
I prepared a lot today.
Don't be nervous.
- I can do it, right? / - You can.
- Of course. / - I'll do this.
She has the voice of a sweet rain.
- Danbi, let's go. / - Let's go.
- Good luck. / - Thank you.
- Go for it. / - You can do it.
Hello, I'm Cheon Danbi.
It's nice to meet you.
(She's back with a new song,)
("A Way to Farewell.")
(She has a clear,)
(appealing voice.)
(The next diva of Immortal Songs, Cheon Danbi)
He was like a poet who made music.
I think that's why people still remember
his beautiful songs.
I like it and I listen to it a lot.
That's why I chose
"When I Stand Under the Shade of Roadside Tree."
I prepared it with a full orchestra.
This is the first time for me to perform
with a large group of people.
I'm looking forward to it.
Please enjoy the grandeur of it.
(This is a masterpiece that makes everyone)
(fall in love with his beautiful world of music.)
(Lee Moonsae and Lee Younghoon)
(are most satisfied with Lee Moonsae's fifth album)
(and this song is its title song.)
(The album was so popular that hundreds)
(of thousands of albums were pre-ordered.)
(Lee Younghoon got inspiration)
(to write this song when he was walking down)
(a tree-lined street at dawn.)
Here comes the fifth performer, Cheon Danbi.
(The fifth performance by Cheon Danbi)
(Choen Danbi)
I'm so honored to be here
singing for Lee Younghoon special.
Please enjoy the beautiful song.
Thank you.
(Let's walk through a beautiful tune.)
("When I Stand Under the Shade of Roadside Tree")
(by Cheon Danbi)
(A beautiful and bright masterpiece)
(of the late Lee Younghoon)
Thank you.
("When I Stand Under the Shade of Roadside Tree")
(by Cheon Danbi)
(A brilliant voice)
(that touches your heart)
She was really good.
"When I Stand Under the Shade of Roadside Tree."
It was so touching.
I cried because it was so beautiful.
It's very difficult
to express a lyrically beautiful song.
But she was able to do it. I want to thank her.
She's been through so much.
She became a singer from being a chorus.
I thought that was so beautiful.
It was like a scene from a musical or a movie.
That's how I felt.
I really wanted to say that it was so beautiful.
Tei, what did you think of it?
I used to work with Danbi ten years ago.
- A decade ago. / - I was very excited
about watching her performance as an artist.
To be honest, I was pleasantly shocked
by the arrangement involving the orchestra.
Now, I admire Danbi as a musician.
I look forward to all of her future endeavors.
All right, it's time for the shot put.
How many votes will Danbi get?
What will her score be? All right, throw it now!
I was wrong earlier. Why do I have to do this?
Let's go! You'll guess it correctly this time.
Let's get it right this time.
- 400... / - 400!
426!
If he's not going to guess it correctly,
he should've said a higher score.
Why did he say a mid-range score?
- Let's do it again. / - Okay, here we go.
- There he goes! / - 400...
429!
- So it'll be a tie? / - It'll be a tie?
Can't you just say that she'll win?
You don't want Danbi to win, right?
(Cheon Danbi versus Jung Dongha)
At the beginning of your career,
you used to sing on our stage, right?
- On our show. / - Yes, many times.
I was actually able to make a name for myself
as a backup singer thanks to Immortal Songs.
When you watched other singers' performances,
did you think about who would win
and what their scores would be?
Did you try to analyze the show that way?
No, not really. We would just
be amazed by the performances.
I never understood why singers cared
so much about their scores.
But standing here, I can totally understand why.
(She understands now.)
Those of you who perform on the stage must know.
Yes, you feel very lonely when the light goes off.
You feel so lonely.
- Extremely lonely. / - Is that right?
I see. I wonder
which one of you will feel it today.
All right. Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Please show us the result.
(Cheon Danbi versus Jung Dongha)
(The rising diva)
(The unbeatable singer)
(The audience chose Jung Dongha.)
It's Jung Dongha.
All right.
Please give them another big round of applause.
I will now pick our sixth and seventh performers.
(Who will put a stop to Dongha's winning streak?)
Every time they're on the show,
they think a lot about how touchy-feely
they could be in their performance.
The endings of their performances
are always very powerful and unforgettable.
It's the passionate couple,
Pansori singer Kim Nani
and modern dancer Jung Seoksoon.
(Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon)
(It's Nani and Seoksoon's turn.)
This couple has a unique strength.
They can sing, make music, and dance.
- They can do everything. / - You can beat Dongha.
Nani, tell us your goal.
Well...
Our goal for today is conveying
how moved we were when we listened to the song
during our practice.
We hope that it can give you
as much solace as it gave us.
Please watch our performance.
They might become the most famous couple in 2018.
- Seoksoon and Nani. / - Best of luck!
(Good luck, Seoksoon and Nani!)
- You got this. / - Good luck.
- You can do it. / - Best of luck.
Hello, I'm Pansori singer Kim Nani.
I'm dancer Jung Seoksoon.
(Strong singing skills merged with modern dance)
(With their touching performance,)
(they won the trophy in Lee Sangwoo Special.)
(Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon)
We'll be singing "Old Love"
written by composer Lee Younghoon.
I heard he passed away ten years ago.
Even though a lot of time has passed,
his masterpieces are still loved to this day.
The song's melody is great, of course.
But I actually love the song so much
because of its incredible lyrics.
That's why both of us cried every time
we sang the song while preparing for today.
Both my husband and I kept crying.
We hope that the audience
can be as moved as we were by the song.
We'll focus on our emotion and do our best.
(Lee Younghoon named "Old Love")
(as a song that represents his music)
(and his best masterpiece sung by Lee Moonsae.)
(Released in Lee Moonsae's seventh album,)
(it showcases his calm voice.)
Here comes the sixth performer,
Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon.
(Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon)
("Old Love" by Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon)
(We want to forget, but it's impossible.)
(Jung Seoksoon and Kim Nani's "Old Love")
(His footsteps are engraved deeply.)
(It's a masterpiece by Late Lee Younghoon.)
That was amazing.
It's one great performance after another.
When the song ended...
- She's crying. / - She was into it.
I knew those emotions weren't forged.
- Seriously. / - She cried.
(Teary)
What's wrong?
- Why are you crying? / - You're emotional today.
I know. Why am I crying so much?
He's reminded of his old love, Park Boonja.
- Who? / - Your old love.
They used to move wooden pokers together.
He was reminded of his old love.
I think "Old Love" is a song
that describes love in the most poetic way.
The love described in this song isn't about
another man other than your husband.
It could be an old couple.
- When one passes away... / - Yes.
(It could be a song about separation by death.)
The love that's left behind.
That makes it really sad.
I think those who watched this stage
would have felt waves of emotions.
Those emotions weren't forced.
I'm talking about Kim Nani's singing.
She finished with lingering feelings.
The imperfect note at the end made me more emotional.
"Old Love" can bring up so many conversation topics.
(Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon versus Jung Dongha)
I think Nani was a little emotional towards the end.
I'm close to the stage, so I can see your tears.
What made you so emotional?
It's just...
Gosh, I must be crazy.
(The stage left her with lingering feelings.)
While listening to this song,
I thought about my past loves
as well, but...
Wait, hold on!
Please!
Don't do this.
Nani.
I think this is something everyone can relate to.
After letting someone go, you feel empty inside.
I felt like this song consoles
your broken heart.
You were really immersed in the song.
All right.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Let's see the result.
(Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon versus Jung Dongha)
(A masculine and passionate stage)
With 429, Jung Dongha is on a winning streak.
Will he win for the third time?
(An emotional stage that makes us sentimental)
The poetic song "Old Love" was expressed as a drama.
Will Kim Nani and Jung Seoksoon win?
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Who will be the winner?)
(Jung Dongha)
It's Jung Dongha with 429.
Please applaud for the three of them.
Dongha's score is too high.
With 429, Jung Dongha gets his third win.
- Tei. / - Yes.
Tei, you're going last.
- This is a good chance. / - Yes.
Tell us how you feel.
This is the reason why I came today.
The song is about telling everyone the story.
I will go up and tell my story.
Whenever Tei sings a sad ballad,
he is usually the strongest.
Is your stage very calm today?
Yes. It'll be an extension of "Old Love."
It's about the people we can no longer see.
- I see. / - About those we miss.
Great. This is today's last stage.
He's an emotional vocalist.
- Tei, good luck! / - Good luck!
(Good luck, Tei!)
It's been a while. I'm singer Tei.
(He has rich emotions and has a charming husky voice.)
(Forever our ballad prince,)
(Tei)
The thing with Lee Younghoon's music
is that the more you hear it, it feels deeper.
He uses melodies and lyrics
that can only come from deep thoughts.
That's why they're so moving
and are loved by many people.
One of the reasons why I came back in a while is...
If you search my name on the internet,
you'll notice there were some sad news.
("They Were Close Like Real Brothers")
("CEO of Tei's Agency Passes Away")
(He had to send someone precious away.)
("Tei Intends on a New Start")
I want to say goodbye through music at least.
That's what I decided to talk about.
I chose a song titled "Farewell Story."
It's not about surviving or forgetting.
Now, I'm at an age where I can accept goodbyes.
I've been good at accepting what happened.
Sometimes, the memories shine so much that it hurts.
When it hurts, I just continue on.
I just wanted to say that I'm doing fine.
If anyone is suffering,
I hope they can get through it.
I hope we can find a bond of sympathy.
("Farewell Story" is a song Lee Younghoon)
(suggested Lee Moonsae to sing with Go Eunhee.)
(The song was released in Lee Moonsae's fourth album.)
(It's a sad song about a couple's farewell.)
(It helped Lee Moonsae find his popularity.)
Here comes the seventh performer,
Tei.
(The last performance by Tei)
(Tei)
("Farewell Story" by Tei)
("Memories Are Sadder Than Love" by Lee Moonsae)
("Farewell Story" by Lee Moonsae)
(Remembering your scent)
("Farewell Story" by Tei)
That got me choked up.
I don't even know what to say.
All of us were immersed in the performance.
Tei sang Lee Moonsae and Go Eunhee's song,
"Farewell Story," as today's finale.
When Tei lost his loved one,
many people were very worried about him
- from what I heard. / - That's right.
He wanted to tell everyone not to worry
and that he's doing well
through today's performance.
He definitely got the message across.
Seoksoon, you started crying all of a sudden.
(Tearing up)
(Stop teasing me.)
I don't cry easily.
- Even my wife / - This was the first time.
hasn't seen it before.
I've never seen him cry right before my eyes.
As soon as I heard Tei's voice...
(Tei's sincere voice got him emotional.)
- He sounded nervous. / - Yes. I'm not sure why.
Kyungho, what did you think of his performance?
His voice got sadder as the performance went on
and it ended like that.
Gosh, I'm a little confused now.
Therefore, I'd like to predict that
Tei will win the trophy today.
Oh, are you saying that he'll get
- more than 429 votes? / - He really moved me.
Lee Younghoon wrote every song
that was sung today as well as the lyrics.
- I think that / - They're amazing songs.
it was a great opportunity to experience
the way he thought and felt.
The songs made me wish he was alive
so that I could chat with him over a glass of soju.
He must've been delicate-minded.
I learned that he wrote many beautiful songs.
They're all such lovely melodies,
but the lyrics are truly incredible.
The lyrics just get engraved in your mind.
- I think he wrote / - Yes.
so many masterpieces.
(Tei versus Jung Dongha)
Preparing for today mustn't have been easy.
I'm sure it made you think about many things.
How do you feel now that the performance is over?
I feel much better now.
I feel like I got to say goodbye properly.
I see.
(The final goodbye for his loved one)
Tei's performance
made me think about the people around me.
I wanted to tell everyone to do your best to make
many happy memories with those around you.
That's right.
(Make many memories while you can.)
They moved us with their incredible performances.
