Synopsis

edit

This is a music reality show program where it features a panel of 5 "Hearers" and a panel of 5 "Villains". In each episode, there will be a featured theme. The Hearers' job is to listen to the different singing voices and find the correct contestant(s) that fits the theme. On the other hand, the Villains' job is to interfere the Hearers by making them confused which in turn preventing them from getting the right answers.[2] If the Hearers won, the prize money will be given to them, if not the prize money will be given to the 5 contestants.

Gameplay

edit

Round 1 is to listen to all 5 contestants sing 1 song, and then in the next part, each of the 5 contestants sing for 30 seconds. The Hearers would come together to choose only 1 contestant who they believe to fit the theme. If succeeded, the Hearers win ₩1,000,000 from this round.

Round 2 is to listen to each of the remaining 4 contestants sing a part of a song or a small medley, and their real identities are shown to only the Villains and the audience. The Hearers will have to eventually decide on the contestant(s) out of the remaining 4 who they believe to fit the theme. If the Hearers chose the correct contestant(s), they will get ₩2,000,000.
