Immortal Songs, Singing the Legend.
Today's legend is praiseworthy.
He's the leader of Korean pop music.
He's a million-seller composer.
He's a timeless, passionate composer.
It's Yoon Ilsang.

(Immortal Songs, Singing the Legend)
First, he's the emperor or rhythm and blues.
Whee Sung is here.
(Emperor of rhythm and blues, Whee Sung)
For some reason, you look younger.
- Yes. / - Really?
You lost weight too.
I was too convex, so I made myself concave.
I'm sorry, but don't talk
about dieting with me sitting here.
Last time you came,
you said you have a hard time on stage
because Jo Seho always copies you.
(Seho is talented at impersonations.)
(Yes!)
(Yes!)
I want to sing without frowning.
Seho sang it very dramatically.
How did Seho do it?
Can you show us a comparison?
(He got caught in the trap.)
(They're identical.)
It's okay.
I hope people watching will be entertained.
I want more people to copy me.
You should practice.
We'll look forward to Whee Sung's stage.
They're the strongest female duo in Korea.
It's Davichi!
(Strongest female duo, Davichi)
I think it's been a while
since the two of you came together.
You haven't come separately either.
We added up the numbers
and you tend to do better when you perform alone.
- But as a duo... / - They drop.
We really don't get it,
but you didn't get many trophies together.
It's not about getting trophies.
We just lost.
- We didn't win once. / - Every time?
- Once. Just once. / - Once.
No, out of the six times, we lost five.
See? They're fighting.
"I feel like she'll do well even if I'm not perfect."
"I'll support her." We think the same.
Also, people expect more from us.
- They expect more. / - Since you're together.
The audience does.
I heard you come to the show for dresses.
- I think you're right. / - Am I?
Yes, you are.
(Do you know how much we love dresses?)
(Ballad queens, Davichi)
You guys call us the ballad queens.
It'd be weird not to wear dresses when we're queens.
Yes, queens go well with dresses.
Can you laugh comfortably?
- Pardon? / - I don't think you can.
I have to laugh like this.
- I can't laugh this way. / - You have to flex.
On the 23rd and the 24th,
at the Yonsei University auditorium...
I thought you meant they enrolled.
I was going to congratulate them
for getting into Yonsei after studying hard.
I was going to clap since it's amazing.
Are they doing something at the auditorium?
Yes, they will be having a year-end concert.
Oh, I see.
I'm going to be alone on the 24th,
- so I was going to go. / - Really?
But it's sold out.
- Where? Let's see. / - Here.
- You're right. / - We still have
some seats for celebrities.
- Is it separate? / - Do you have seats?
Chiyeul, you better not do anything else that day.
- You have to go. / - You said so.
You have to post your picture.
You have your concert scheduled,
so your new album will be pushed back.
- I should do that too. / - Next year is our tenth.
A tenth-year-anniversary album.
A tenth-year-anniversary album.
Someone just made a complaint.
- Whee Sung said... / - I was talking to myself.
It was too loud.
He said he should have promoted his concert.
Since we're on it, go ahead.
It'll be at Ilsan, Busan, Changwon, Daegu and here.
Just talk about the Seoul dates.
- Seoul? / - Where is it in Seoul?
Where is it in Seoul? Seoul National University?
No, Yonsei University.
Are you sold out too?
Not yet.
- There are many tickets. / - Do you have a lot?
You can go and book right now.
Come if you don't have anything to do.
Is your schedule free on that date?
Me? I should go.
- You should go. / - Of course.
- It's not possible. / - Go sit with the stars.
I loved Whee Sung since I was young.
- Then you should go. / - I hope you go.
You have a concert too?
- Yes. / - Everyone has one.
It's in Seoul. At Sejong University.
- It's on 23rd and 24th. / - That's right.
The dates are...
- They overlap. / - Yes.
- They overlap. / - I see.
Which one will you go to?
(Chiyeul loves concerts.)
(Will he go see Ailee?)
(Or will he see Davichi?)
(What is his choice?)
You can go to her concert on the 23rd,
then come to ours on the 24th.
That works.
You're going to be so busy.
You have to go to Whee Sung's concert,
Ailee's concert and Davichi's too.
I'd be so happy.
You get to watch such great shows.
You're right.
We'll look forward to Davichi's stage today.
He's in the hottest boy group right now.
Wanna One's main vocal, Kim Jaehwan is here.
(Wanna One's main vocal, Kim Jaehwan)
("Goose Daddy" during Lee Mija special)
How could someone so young feel so much regret?
(Legend Lee Mija complimented him.)
Please say hello.
Hello. I'm Kim Jaehwan of Wanna One.
I'm sorry, but this isn't the news.
Don't you have something like this?
(The forefather of idols gives him an idea.)
Wanna One.
I'm Kim Jaehwan. Something like this.
- Don't you have one? / - This is amazing.
- I'll try it. / - Okay.
Here he goes.
Wanna One. Hello.
- I'm Kim Jaehwan. / - It's cute.
Almost...
You didn't get to win any last time.
You might want to win this time.
My lights went off last time I came.
It felt strange.
- Didn't it? / - I thought
I would feel really good if my lights go on,
- even if it's just once. / - I see.
We'll look forward to Kim Jaehwan.
Thank you.
I will now pick our first performer.
(Who will be performing first?)
This person is like a scratch-back.
This is their charm.
Whenever you hear this person sing,
it feels as though they're scratching your itch.
Isn't it Davichi?
This person gives you that sense of relief.
- Son Seungyeon? / - Ailee?
She's the show's diva, Ailee!
(Ailee)
(Ailee, the diva)
- Ailee, let's go! / - Let's go!
Thank you.
- Good luck. / - Good luck.
Hello, everyone. Nice to see you.
It's singer Ailee.
(Legend Jeon Youngrok's "Don't Forget Me")
(Legend Kim Kwangjin's "The Letter")
(With the last two performances on the show,)
(the show's diva became the final winner.)
(The final winner was Ailee.)
Today, I'm singing a song composed by Yoon Ilsang
called "I Have a Lover", sung by Lee Eunmee.
To be honest, I didn't know that many Korean pop songs
since I grew up in the States.
Whenever I came on the show,
I had to learn a new song.
However, "I Have a Lover" is a song
I always loved and sang often.
I have high expectations for today's stage
and I want to perform well.
("I Have a Lover" was on the top of the charts)
(for 67 weeks in a row, which set a new record.)
(It was Lee Eunmee's title song in her sixth album.)
(It became the soundtrack)
(of "The Last Scandal of My Life" in 2008.)
(Lee Eunmee was suffering from depression)
(and this song allowed her to come back on stage.)
Here comes the first performer, Ailee.
(The first performance by Ailee)
Thank you.
I think it's been a while.
It's so nice to see you. I'm singer Ailee.
("I Have a Lover" by Ailee)
(You don't know how hurt I am to be in love.)
("I Have a Lover" by Ailee)
Thank you.
Thank you.
(You can always expect the best from Ailee.)
Ailee doesn't disappoint.
I wonder how she's able to produce
the sensitivity of the 90s at her age.
What an amazing stage.
When Ailee ad-libbed in the middle,
- her hair flew back. / - The air.
I got goosebumps then.
The music and the flying hair
came together as one.
It was awesome.
She has really good wind skills.
I saw her debut stage
and she was already controlling wind.
(She's charismatic.)
(Her charm is like a typhoon.)
Actually, wind can be dangerous.
Your lips can roll in.
- It gets dry. / - Your lips roll in?
It's because your teeth get dry.
- Yes. / - It gets stuck like this.
That's exactly it.
(Everyone, be careful of the wind machine.)
This could happen.
I will now pick our second performer.
Back then, this person didn't talk much.
- Me? / - They were kind of timid.
Ever since he started doing musicals,
he must have fallen in love with their style.
He's become an extrovert.
He's active in every industry.
He's a talented vocalist, it's Whee Sung.
(Whee Sung)
It's Whee Sung.
(Addictive charms, Whee Sung)
Whee Sung, what did you think of Ailee's song?
I met her when she was really young.
Didn't you write a song for her?
- For her debut album. / - Right.
I'm very thankful that she kept
her own musical tone until now.
You met her as her producer.
However, Immortal Songs can't make exceptions.
They have to compete.
More than it being a competition,
I'll just do what I want. That's what I think.
- Is it okay to lose? / - Yes.
- Really? / - Yes.
If you say that, you'll lose.
Immortal Songs has a fairy.
They grant your wish if you say it out loud.
Whatever you say will happen.
- You can't lose, right? / - Ailee, you'll rest soon.
(He changed his mind.)
We've been dying to hear Whee Sung.
The emperor of rhythm and blues. Whee Sung,
- let's go! / - Let's go!
(Let's go, Whee Sung!)
I hope you win.
Good luck.
Hello, everyone.
I'm back after a year. I'm singer Whee Sung.
At music programs, there were five to six songs
composed by him in the top ten list.
He pretty much dominated the scene.
He's able to write for the Korean taste.
He makes it dramatic.
The flow is very smooth in the melody.
I think his works can move the public.
The song I'll be singing is Turbo's "Reminiscence".
I'll be satisfied if I can give my all.
Thank you.
("Reminiscence" was released in Turbo's third album.)
(Yoon Ilsang wrote the song abroad)
(when the broadcaster minimized his music)
(from playing as they all came from one composer.)
(At the time of recording this song,)
(strange things happened, leading to ghost stories.)
(This song is loved whenever it's winter.)
Here comes the second performer, Whee Sung.
(The second performance by Whee Sung)
Hello, nice to meet you.
Hello.
Today, someone is here to help me.
He's an artist I admire.
It's rapper V-Hawk.
- Hello, nice to meet you. / - He's a hawk.
Please say a few words.
I'm V-Hawk. Nice to meet you.
(V-Hawk, rapper)
("Reminiscence" by Whee Sung)
Thank you.
(Reminiscing the beautiful past)
("Reminiscence" by Whee Sung)
(His calm voice moves us.)
He sang "Reminiscence" as a ballad.
Whee Sung sang it.
Whenever I hear this song,
- I'm reminded of my past. / - I think about winters.
I was just reminded while listening.
- Ski resorts. / - Yes, ski resorts.
The audio system at ski resorts
(The voice that resembles a mosquito's echoes.)
plays Jongkook's songs all day.
Right?
(All over the ski resort,)
(the voice that resembles a mosquito's echoes.)
Jaehwan, does this song remind you of the past?
- The past? / - Yes.
How old were you in 1997?
I was one year old.
Don't you have memories of that time?
Didn't you feel great to enter the world?
I felt very refreshed.
(At the age of one, Jaehwan felt very refreshed.)
That's it.
That's the comment I want from you.
(He gained skills for variety shows.)
He became more relaxed.
How did you like the performance?
The performance made me wish for the snow.
I want to walk the streets on a snowy day.
With whom?
- With the members? / - With the members.
I said it first.
I said it first.
I know because I was an idol singer in the 90s.
(Ailee versus Whee Sung)
The song Ailee sang, "I Have a Lover"
is the title song of Lee Eunmee's album.
People love the song so much
that it's top one among
the ballad songs that are widely sung.
The song wasn't popular upon release.
Didn't it gain popularity a few years later?
Lee Eunmee mostly gives live performances.
When I directed music for a drama,
I used this song as an OST.
The artists who know the song
posted it on their social network sites.
That's how the song became popular belatedly.
Even though you have a lot of hit songs,
"I Have a Lover" brings the most amount of money.
That's right. "I Have a Lover" is one
and "I Miss You" is the other.
What did you think of Ailee's performance?
To be honest,
many artists made remakes of the song.
I think Ailee's performance
was the very best.
Thank you.
Also, Whee Sung sang "Reminiscence".
It's one of the best songs that represent winter
which ranked top one in various music shows.
You were struggling a lot when you made this song.
Around 1997,
they made Yoon Ilsang the quota system
because I was making too many hit songs.
That's right. I remember.
I organized everything
and went to the U.S.
I ran on the beach
(He felt freedom without the worries.)
and wrote this song.
The song gave me a healing experience.
Whee Sung's performance
contains the emotions I felt back then.
It was very nice.
Thank you.
Even though you are busy
preparing for the musical and concert,
you decided to come for Yoon Ilsang Special.
The production crew told me that.
I wanted to be here for Yoon Ilsang.
I heard this song a lot in middle school
when I was around Ewha Womans University.
Back then, there were many stores
- in the area. / - That's right.
It was especially true back in the days.
I think this song represented
the winter of Korea at the time.
That's right. The two performances were exceptional.
From the start, I am curious about the result.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
(The result)
Yoon Ilsang Special with the best vocalists.
The first match leaves us excited.
Will Ailee take a win with "I Have a Lover"?
(Will the student win?)
(The talented vocalist of Immortal Songs)
Will Whee Sung take a win
with the ballad version of "Reminiscence"?
(Will the teacher win?)
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Who will be the winner?)
(Ailee)
Ailee, you got 412.
(Ailee)
- With a score of 412, Ailee / - Why is it so high?
beat her teacher, Whee Sung,
and took a win.
Please congratulate her.
- Bye. / - Please give them
- a round of applause. / - Thank you.
Thank you.
I will now pick our third performer.
Dongyeop is choosing the third ball.
This artist tells a unique story
with his well-organized performances
to satisfy the audience's eyes and ears.
The master of performance with a story,
Koonzo.
(Koonzo)
(He is pressured.)
It seems a performance with a story
will follow.
I prepared a cheerful performance.
Since it will be a party,
I hope you will relax and enjoy.
- I will do my best. / - That's good.
He weaves a story with his performance.
We look forward to a good performance.
- Koonzo, let's go. / - Let's go.
- Let's go. / - I will be back.
Bye.
(The time has come.)
(What will he do?)
(No way.)
Chiyeul's Fierce Welcoming Ceremony!
(Chiyeul's Fierce Welcoming Ceremony)
- He got this. / - Who?
Wanna One's Jaehwan is here.
His impression of G-Dragon
- became the talk of the town. / - That's right.
(He perfectly copied "Untitled, 2014".)
(Even if I lose all, it's okay.)
I heard you can do an impression of Whee Sung.
("Heartsore Story" by Whee Sung)
(Will he succeed?)
I have never done it.
Give it a try. This is the perfect time.
You should try it when Whee Sung isn't here.
(It's already funny.)
- I will give it a go. / - Okay.
(It's lacking by two percent.)
He is good.
You are very good with impressions.
If you do an impression of Whee Sung
and follow up with that of G-Dragon,
it will be like a conversation.
Give it a try.
(Expectant)
(Don't cry, you fool. It's okay to cry.)
That was great.
That was great.
Davichi, you will have a concert soon
- and sing your hit songs. / - It will be amazing.
For those who may be unfamiliar,
why don't you sing a medley?
- Okay. / - We came prepared.
- Give us a taste. / - Shall we begin?
Shall we begin?
("Even Though I Hate You, I Love You)
(You are my love)
("War and Love")
(You begged me to go out with you)
("Don't Say Goodbye")
(Don't say goodbye to me)
(They have the perfect harmony.)
It was great.
It was lovely. I must go to the concert.
I really want to go.
Hello, viewers of Immortal Songs.
I am Koonzo.
(Exceptional singing skills)
(Splendid performance)
(Varied composition)
(The master of performances, Koonzo)
My performance always has
the key element.
Today, it will allow the audience
to lose themselves in something
they haven't seen before.
Today, I will sing a song Yoon Ilsang composed,
"Amor Fati".
Think that you are at the party.
I hope the viewers and the audience
will enjoy the party.
("Amor Fati" is a song by Kim Yonja)
(that moved up the charts years after its release.)
(Yoon Ilsang revealed that Kim Yonja asked him)
(to make a song that celebrates her life.)
Here comes the third performer, Koonzo.
(The third performance by Koonzo)
You can party with me, right?
Please help me out.
I will give a performance I prepared.
("Amor Fati" by Koonzo)
Together!
Are you ready to party some more?
- Yes! / - Yes!
Get up from your seats.
Get up from your seats.
Four, three, two, one.
Jump!
Yes!
Jump!
Let's go!
Shall we dance together?
Follow me. Two, three. four.
(An exciting dance party,)
("Amor Fati" by Koonzo)
Thank you.
(The heat of the party doesn't cool down.)
"Amor Fati"!
Kim Yonja's song was transformed into a fun dance song.
I think Koonzo will win.
People in the front rows don't usually stand up.
- You are right. / - All of them stood up.
That means everyone stood up.
They will press the button afterward.
They may not press the button.
Last week, I performed with samulnori troupe.
- Everyone stood up. / - That's right.
However, I got eliminated right away.
Next time, I want to give a performance like that.
It will be an homage to the 90s.
Whee Sung should visit the show again.
Whee Sung, who will win? Ailee or Koonzo?
- Koonzo, I think. / - Really?
It was like a feast Korean people adore.
- It had everything. / - It was so much fun.
(Ailee versus Koonzo)
(Dancing)
(How cute!)
When "Amor Fati" was announced,
young people in the audience screamed.
- It must have been... / - It was very touching.
I wanted to film everyone in the audience.
Right?
Kim Yonja sang the song.
How did it come to be?
Kim Yonja never stops challenging herself.
Given that aspect, I thought
a song like this one might suit her.
I decided to write a song that is full of cheer.
That's how the song came to be.
I see.
I think "Amor Fati"
will bring in a lot of money.
How did you enjoy Koonzo's performance?
I think the performance he gave today
(The performance moved the legend.)
was one of his best works.
His idea for the performance
couldn't be better.
- That's right. / - Thank you.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Let's see the result.
(Ailee versus Koonzo)
(Will Ailee take two wins in a row?)
Will the diva of Immortal Songs,
Ailee take her second win with a score of 412?
(Will Koonzo take a win with a fun EDM party?)
He changed the atmosphere with a fun EDM party.
Will Koonzo take a win?
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Diva versus Master of performances)
(Who will be the winner?)
(Koonzo)
The score is 416. Koonzo.
(The fun EDM won.)
That's incredible.
He won't need to feel betrayed.
With a score of 416,
Koonzo beats Ailee and takes a win.
Thank you for your hard work.
(She is cute.)
I will now pick our fourth performer.
This artist has unexpected charms.
With his clear skin
and an innocent face,
he evokes...
He evokes maternal instinct.
He captivates older women.
(An idol singer who captivates older women)
The charming and popular idol singer
and a voice of Wanna One, Kim Jaehwan.
(Kim Jaehwan)
- ♪ It's me ♪ / - This is the match I wanted to see.
It's a match between the existing
and the rising performance stars.
I didn't prepare a dance.
I prepared rock music.
That's why you're wearing a leather jacket.
I really wanted to come back here.
So I'm really grateful to be here again.
I'll do my best today.
Kim Jaehwan.
- Good luck! / - Good luck!
- Let's go! / - Thank you.
(The new idol star that seized Korea)
(They proved themselves with a great performance.)
(He performed alone representing Wanna One.)
(He received a high praise from a legend.)
(Kim Jaehwan will transform today.)
Last time, it was my first solo appearance.
So I didn't care about winning.
Since this is my second appearance,
I kind of want to win this time.
Today, I will sing a song composed by Yoon Ilsang
and sung by Yoon Dohyun,
"Forget You".
I won't be nervous.
I will sing my best to show you what I prepared.
("Forget You" is the title song of Yoon Dohyun Band,)
(YB's sixth album.)
(It ranked high on music charts at the time.)
(The song is about a man who is determined)
(to forget his lover that left him.)
(It's a classic rock song with an upbeat rhythm.)
Here comes the fourth performer, Kim Jaehwan.
(The fourth performance by Kim Jaehwan)
(Today he is no longer an innocent boy.)
Hello, I'm Kim Jaehwan of Wanna One.
(Exuding masculine charm)
I respect Yoon Ilsang
and I listen to his songs a lot.
I grew up listening to them.
I'm so honored and nervous to sing
his song today.
I'll do my best. Thank you.
(Kim Jaehwan)
("Forget You" by Kim Jaehwan)
Thank you.
(Forgetting you without any regrets,)
("Forget You" by Kim Jaehwan)
You're great!
(A touching modern rock)
"Forget You" by YB.
We listened to it with Jaehwan's voice.
He seemed relaxed today,
so he was able to really sing.
- He has an amazing voice. / - He's great.
It's hard to see his solo performance.
- That's right. / - I want to
praise him for challenging himself
to sing in a style he likes.
It's really nerve-wracking to sing alone
without your teammates.
It was amazing how he was
- so calm. / - Right.
- He's so manly. / - He's so different.
- He has a baby face. / - Yes.
But he was so tough on stage.
His performance proves that current idols'
singing skills have been upgraded.
(Kim Jaehwan versus Koonzo)
Ilsang, how did you like
Jaehwan's performance?
I can't say anything bad
about the rearrangement of the song.
And he sang it so well.
The song was really well interpreted.
I feel like I'm being pampered.
"Forget You" is reborn again in 2017.
(The birth of "Forget You" 2017)
Is there a song of yours
that suits Jaehwan well?
I believe Jaehwan
has so much in store for us to see.
There's a song called "As You Live"
in musical "Seopyeonje".
I wrote every song in that musical.
If he sings that song,
I think the song will be reborn.
I see. So you're basically saying,
"Let's work together next time."
How do you feel?
I feel so honored.
I'm so nervous just to be in front of him.
His good words made me more nervous.
Did Wanna One members cheer for you
for performing alone?
They told me not to come home
without winning.
(If you don't win, don't come home!)
So I told them I might not go home.
You never know.
Your light could be turned on or off.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Let's see the result.
(Kim Jaehwan versus Koonzo)
(A fantastic party)
Immortal Song's storyteller.
Will Koonzo continue his winning streak?
(Modern rock that captures ladies' hearts)
Will Kim Jaehwan of Wanna One, with a pure voice,
win against Koonzo?
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Who will be the winner?)
(Will Jaehwan get to return home in glory?)
(Will Koonzo make Jaehwan sleep out?)
(Kim Jaehwan)
It's a score of 423.
- Congratulations. / - Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Well.
It's a score of 423.
- That's a winning score. / - Goodness.
Jaehwan stops Koonzo's winning streak
and takes a win.
(Is this for real?)
What just happened?
(I can return home!)
I really wanted to do well.
Thank you so much for voting for me.
I don't need the trophy.
I'm happy with this one win.
I will now pick our fifth performer.
This passionate person
sweats bullets all year round.
So his fans are always
worried that he might get dehydrated.
It's passionate balladeer DK.
(DK)
(Breaking out in a cold sweat)
Are you okay to perform at this time?
- He got a score of 423. / - Well...
Because the score is high,
I feel less pressured.
Please look forward to it. I'll do well.
All right. DK.
I believe you will show us
a passionate and wonderful performance.
- DK. Let's go! / - Let's go!
DK, good luck!
Yoon Ilsang wrote "I Miss You" by Kim Bumsoo,
"I Have a Lover" by Lee Eunmee
and "Amor Fati" by Kim Yonja.
He wrote hit songs for many singers.
Whee Sung, you have a lot of hit songs.
- Me? / - Yes.
"Whee Sung, you have a lot of hit songs."
I think you should just speak in your dialect.
You sound awkward because you don't.
Say it in your dialect.
What would be the best?
Of all your songs,
which one is the most amazing?
- That's perfect. / - Just speak in dialect.
- That's it. / - Do it.
"With Me" is the song that's the most like me.
That's right.
("With Me" is Whee Sung's best song.)
- That one. / - Ailee,
- what's your best song? / - ♪ Heaven ♪
Isn't it "Heaven"?
It's "Heaven", I see.
Isn't "Singing Got Better" also your best song?
Both songs were written by Whee Sung.
Ailee was smiling bashfully.
"Your song isn't the best."
(Did I guess wrong?)
I saw right through her.
- What's your best song? / - What is it?
I like Whitney Houston.
See? She had something different in mind.
Hi, I'm DK of December. It's nice to meet you.
He's the best composer.
It doesn't matter which song I'm given,
it'd be an honor to sing any of his songs.
I'll sing "Fate" from "Phoenix" O.S.T.
I'm given an opportunity
to sing a song I really like.
So I will be more emotional
and I'll be able to sing more sincerely.
Please enjoy the song.
I'd be grateful if you did.
Please root for DK of December.
("Fate" is an original soundtrack)
(of MBC drama, "Phoenix", starring Lee Seojin,)
(Lee Eunju, and Eric Mun which aired in 2004.)
(Because of the popularity of the drama,)
(20,000 copies of the album was sold)
(within two weeks of its release.)
(Close friends Yoon Ilsang and Lee Seungchul)
(worked on the song together.)
(The song topped the music charts)
(and the time, and it's still being loved.)
Here comes the fifth performer, DK.
(The fifth performance by DK)
("Fate" by DK)
(Love fakes itself as a chance,)
(but it's believed to be fate and destiny.)
("Fate" by DK)
Thank you. Thank you, Ilsang.
Thank you, everyone.
(A wind of sensibility blows.)
DK!
That was grand.
I think the performance was very dramatic
- with this song. / - Yes.
He rearranged the song by the book.
It was great how he made it
more dramatic toward the end.
(Kim Jaehwan versus DK)
"Fate" by DK.
It was an original soundtrack of "Phoenix"
sung by Lee Seungchul in 2004.
Lee Seungchul is such a big name.
How did you like DK's performance?
A composer feels rewarded
when a singer understands and interprets
his song well and expresses it well.
He did that even though the song is quite old.
So I was very touched by that.
Other than that,
he also made the song refined and grand.
So I'm still very deeply moved.
- Thank you. / - Thank you so much.
When the person who sang before you
receives the highest score,
you don't want to perform right after him.
Today, I felt a lot of pressure to sing after Jaehwan.
If I win, his fans will hate me.
If I lose...
(If he wins, there will be consequences.)
I think I'll be more popular if I lose.
Fans these days are very sophisticated.
You don't have to worry.
You don't have to worry about that at all.
Let's see the result.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
(Kim Jaehwan versus DK)
(Who will be the winner?)
(Kim Jaehwan)
(Jaehwan is shocked.)
- Congratulations. / - Thank you.
(Jaehwan is on a winning streak.)
Please give it up for Jaehwan and DK.
I will now pick
our sixth and seventh performers.
I have a feeling that Davichi will win.
- Really? / - Thank you.
As a team.
She just ditched me.
Goodness.
She has an amazing memory.
She says,
even after many years, she never forgets
those who won against her in Immortal Songs.
Her memory is that good.
All she thinks about is Immortal Songs.
It's Son Seungyeon.
(Son Seungyeon)
I feel pressured, but I'll do my best.
- Seungyeon, let's go! / - Let's go!
- Good luck! / - Go for it!
Ilsang started playing the piano when he was four.
And he started composing since third grade.
He was a musical prodigy.
Ailee, I heard
that you never let go of a microphone.
I saw my childhood videos.
In every video,
I'm either singing or dancing.
I never stayed still.
When did you start singing like this?
I sang like that since I was born.
Like this.
- You're good. / - She's good.
Looking at Koonzo, I think
he started dancing since he was little.
I did.
Since I was in fifth grade.
I danced since then.
It was when Seo Taiji and Boys were popular.
All the boys copied their dance moves.
Koonzo will show us Seo Taiji and Boys' dance.
- This... / - Please show us.
Then we'll know what you were like.
What is this called?
There have to be two dancers.
You know we have another good dancer.
Right.
- Whee Sung is here. / - He'll help you.
Koonzo and Whee Taiji.
("Come Back Home" by Seo Taiji and Boys)
(Everyone who loved to dance copied this.)
(They start with a freestyle dance.)
- Here they go. / - Here it is.
- Go! / - Let's go.
(Working in perfect harmony)
That's amazing!
Hi, I'm Son Seungyeon.
Today, I'll sing "I Miss You"
which was composed by Yoon Ilsang
and sung by Kim Bumsoo.
Usually, men sing this song a lot.
I kept thinking about how to sing this song
until this morning.
I'll try something that's never been done before.
I practiced really hard. I hope you'll like it.
(It is the title song of Kim Bumsoo's third album.)
(It was an original soundtrack)
(of SBS drama "Stairway to Heaven")
(This classic song made Kim Bumsoo)
(become one of the top ballad singers.)
(It earns Yoon Ilsang the most royalty.)
Here comes the sixth performer, Son Seungyeon.
(The sixth performance by Son Seungyeon)
(Son Seungyeon)
Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Son Seungyeon.
("I Miss You" by Son Seungyeon)
(Cry of desperate longing)
Thank you.
("I Miss You" by Son Seungyeon)
That was incredible.
It was the best.
We heard Kim Bumsoo's song, "I Miss You",
in Seungyeon's voice.
In the middle of it,
she sang with her mic lowered like this.
I wondered how it'd make me feel.
I felt as if my heart had just stopped.
But that sound...
- She didn't use the mic. / - That's right.
- What a powerful voice. / - Exactly.
I could feel how much she wanted
to sing in her raw voice for the audience.
I thought it was incredibly inspiring.
I've known how amazingly talented she is,
but it was my first time actually seeing it.
- See what? / - Her performing here.
- I've only seen it on TV. / - Oh, I see.
- She's really phenomenal. / - Were you impressed?
She has such a powerful voice
and her singing is so stable.
All I can say is, she's an amazing singer.
I'm impressed every time I see her perform.
She's always... What's the word for it?
- Consistent? / - Yes, she's consistent.
She's always so good.
(Kim Jaehwan versus Son Seungyeon)
This song too.
I heard you originally wrote it for your album.
Is that true?
Yes. Back then, I was actually
working on Bumsoo's album as well.
One day, he happened to see me singing the song
and said, "This song is mine."
I see. That's what happened.
How did you enjoy Seungyeon's performance?
I must say, she looks absolutely stunning today.
(Compliments make Seungyeon dance.)
What she showed us today
will be remembered as a legendary performance
of "I Miss You". It'll be remembered through time.
I was thoroughly moved and I'm very grateful.
- I see. Thank you. / - Thank you.
(Even the legend was moved by it.)
The audience kept applauding her.
I'm very curious as to what the result will be.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
(Kim Jaehwan versus Son Seungyeon)
(The unforgettable voice of Wanna One)
Will Jaehwan, the idol super rookie of the show,
beat Seungyeon and take his third win?
(The voice that moved the legend)
"I'm the original super rookie of the show!"
Will Seungyeon be able to take her first win?
440!
(Who will be the winner?)
440!
440!
(The audience chose Son Seungyeon.)
- You rocked. / - My, that's amazing.
Thank you!
Thank you.
Her highest score before this was 439 points,
but she broke her record and got 440 votes today.
Seungyeon beat Jaehwan and took her first win!
(The high score makes Davichi depressed.)
Davichi, cheer up.
Why are you applauding like that?
- You'll do a great job. / - Let me say something.
I'm not saying it just to make you feel better.
When the winning score goes up like this,
the record always gets broken.
All right. We've waited long for this moment,
so we'll do our best.
- Davichi, best of luck! / - Best of luck!
You got this, girls.
(They're off to do the finale.)
- Hello, we're Davichi. / - Hello, we're Davichi.
It's nice to meet you all.
(The two beautiful voices)
(The invincible female duo, Davichi)
Back in high school when I was a trainee,
I'd be listening to songs and look up
who wrote the songs that I thought were amazing
and they were always written by Ilsang.
So I wondered what he'd be like
because he has written so many incredible songs.
We made our debut about ten years ago,
- but we've never met him. / - That's right.
This feels like true success to us.
- Success as a singer? / - Exactly.
We'll be singing Kim Bumsoo's song
called "Last Love" today.
We prepared an awesome performance for today,
so please look forward to our harmony.
Our "Last Love" won't let you down!
(This title track of Kim Bumsoo's seventh album)
(was the first song he worked on with Ilsang)
(in nine years since "I Miss You".)
(The lyrics about ending his 12-year relationship)
(make the song even more moving.)
Here comes the seventh performer, Davichi.
(The seventh performance by Davichi)
(Davichi)
("Last Love" by Davichi)
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
Thank you.
(Everything about love is beautiful.)
("Last Love" by Davichi)
(Their beautiful voices captivated everyone.)
My gosh, I'm blown away.
(Their beautiful voices captivated everyone.)
That was outstanding.
That was Kim Bumsoo's "Last Love" by Davichi.
When Haeri sings high notes, I can hear
her vocal cords vibrating. I love it when
the heart-fluttering feelings are conveyed.
Today... Did you all hear
- her three high notes? / - Yes, we did.
She must've done it to get three more votes.
(The first high note, one vote has been added)
(The second high note, one more!)
(Her extreme high notes mesmerized the audience.)
- Three votes. / - One, two, three! Three more votes.
- It's at 440 votes now. / - They aren't too greedy.
- Just three more votes. / - Exactly.
Jaehwan, what did you think of it?
During Seungyeon's performance,
I couldn't help but keep uttering
exclamations because I was so amazed.
Davichi's performance, on the other hand,
made me very sad for some reason.
I think it also made me want to be in love.
Members of most duos that have been around
for pretty long don't actually get along.
Davichi debuted about ten years ago, you know.
They've maintained their friendship for a decade
and it showed on stage today.
- Their friendship? / - Yes, seriously.
Musically, I think that it was perfect.
(Davichi versus Son Seungyeon)
Personally, I was very happy today.
It's because
I've always been a huge fan of Bumsoo.
There's a song called "My Day".
It's his debut song.
Even before that song became known,
I happened to hear it one day
and thought, "What is this song? Who's this singer?"
"This song is incredible."
I remember looking it up to see who sang it.
- You liked "My Day"? / - Yes, of course.
Can we please hear it?
(The legend asked him to sing out of the blue.)
- Shin Dongyeop! / - Shin Dongyeop!
- Shin Dongyeop! / - All right. Okay.
("My Day" by Kim Bumsoo)
(The sad look on his face really makes the song.)
My gosh, I'm sorry.
(Thumbs up)
Ilsang, what did you think
of Davichi's "Last Love"?
The two divas with deep, beautiful voices
gave me such a big gift.
I was very moved by their performance.
I was touched by all performances today.
Next year marks the 27th anniversary of my debut,
so I'm planning a special concert
to celebrate the anniversary.
I must say, being here today
was a huge gift to me in and of itself.
(Immortal Songs is like a gift to him.)
I'd like to sincerely thank all the performers.
Great.
- Seungyeon. / - Yes.
Your highest score before today was 439 votes.
- Yes. / - Right?
- Yes. / - But she just broke
her own record by one vote.
However,
Haeri's highest score to date is also...
Do you remember it?
It's also 439 votes.
Their highest scores were exactly the same,
but Seungyeon just set a new record
for herself with that one extra vote.
Apparently, the winner got three more votes.
(The difference is only three votes.)
Three votes?
I'm curious as to what the result will be.
Immortal Songs, Singing the Legend.
Composer Yoon Ilsang Special.
Only the final result awaits us now.
Let's see whom the audience has chosen.
Please show us the final result.
(The result)
(Will Seungyeon win with her highest score?)
(Will Davichi as a whole win today?)
(The performance that even moved the legend)
("I Miss You" left a powerful echo.)
We can't wait to find out the result of this match.
Will Seungyeon win the trophy with 440 votes,
which is her highest score to date?
Davichi impressed us with their amazing teamwork.
Will they be able to win the trophy today?
(Davichi's perfect harmony)
(Their "Last Love" was heart-wrenching.)
(Their "Last Love" was heart-wrenching.)
- Let's see! / - Let's see!
(Who won by three votes?)
("Last Love" versus "I Miss You")
Davichi!
(The audience chose Davichi.)
I can't believe it!
Part Two of Yoon Ilsang Special.
The trophy goes to Davichi.
Congratulations.
Please receive the trophy.
All right. Please give them another big hand.
(Passion That Transcends Time, Yoon Ilsang)
