Circus Girl in “King of Mask Singer” Turns Out to be BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ
[스포츠조선닷컴=김영록 기자] It turned out that Circus Girl in “King of Mask Singer” was BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ.
The March 5 episode of MBC’s “King of Mask Singer” featured four masked singers trying to stop Cat in Boots’ fourth win.
Circus Girl and Singing Genius Kim Tak-gu were the second team to compete in the second round.
Circus Girl sang Jung Seung-hwan’s “If It Is You” and showed off her deep and sexy voice. Her unique voice and emotion in her singing moved the hearts of the judges. Because Circus Girl’s Korean pronunciation was somewhat strange, some judges suspected that she was not a Korean.
Singing Genius Kim Tak-gu sang YB’s “Mint Candy”. He let off his rocker spirit from the very beginning. The audience stood up amazed by his charisma. As the song drew to a close, his energy became even stronger.
Yoo Young-suk commented, “Kim Tak-gu was able to sing powerfully without making rough sounds. It was incredible. In the first round, he was an R&B singer, and in this round, he became a rocker. My guess is that he’ll turn into a ballad singer in the next round.” About Circus Girl, Yoo Young-suk commented, “Her voice is amazing. But the enunciation was not so good. It seemed that she understood the melody and not the lyrics. But her voice was great. Her voice is like that of an animation character.”
Cho Jang-hyuk commented, “Kim Tak-gu has the rock spirit in him. Rock is a genre that you can do only when you have enough physical strength, enough practice, and power. He sure must have practiced a lot.”
BTOB’s Seo Eunkwang praised Circus Girl and said, “Circus Girl is from an idol group. I knew it from the moment I listened to her singing. I think she is the main vocalist. Her voice is very unique. I love the vibrations too.” About Kim Tak-gu, he commented, “The person that popped up in my head was Park Hyun-bin. Isn’t Kim Tak-gu Park Hyun-bin?” Kim Gura was sure that Kim Tak-gu was not Park Hyun-bin.
He said, “Circus Girl is like Bolbbalgan4’s Ahn Ji-young or SOO HYUN of AKMU. Not everyone falls in love with her from the very first moment. She is unique and the more you see her, the more you fall her. ” Lee Seung-woo said, “Pronouncing Korean words like English words has become a trend nowadays. Her voice color and the way she sings can really appeal to the public these days.”
Kim Tak-gu did an imitation of Park Hyo Shin and Jo Sung-mo and sang their “Good Person” and “Do You Know”. Circus Girl mimicked G-DRAGON and Britney Spears and made everyone in the audience laugh. Together, they also did a dance to Twice’s “Knock Knock”.
Kim Tak-gu won Circus Girl by 70 to 29 votes. Circus Girl took off her mask, and it turned out that she was BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ. When she was asked if her waist was really 19 inches, she said, “No person has a 19-inch waist. I recent measured my waist, and it was 24 inches.” Then, she sent a video letter to her mom and said with a hint of tears, “I’ll practice harder and become a great singer.”
