Girl Group Member And Rising Idol-Actress Wows On "The King Of Mask Singer"

The identity of contestant Lemon was unveiled on MBC’s “The King of Mask Singer”!

On the January 5 episode, contestants Lemon and Now Persimmon faced off in the second round of the singing competition.

After their performances, Shin Bong Sun speculated, “Lemon chose to sing songs by Lee Ji Hye and Lia, so I think she’s in her mid-30s.” Lovelyz’s Mijoo disagreed, saying, “I don’t think she’s an actress in her mid-30s, but a currently active idol singer. She’s also working as an actress. I think she sang the songs of those two singers because of her parents’ influence.”

Super Junior’s Eunhyuk added, “I think so too. The initial of [Lemon’s] group is ‘A.'”

Now Persimmon won with 57 votes to Lemon’s 42 and moved onto the third round. Lemon remained on stage and removed her mask to reveal herself as APRIL’s Naeun!

Mijoo said, “She’s exactly who I thought she was. Since I’ve seen a lot of her acting and singing, I knew right away.” Naeun remarked, “I was really amazed. I chose songs that my mom usually listens to, but Mijoo still hit the nail on the head.”

The APRIL member continued, “This year marks six years since APRIL’s debut. I hope I can become a singer who has a positive influence through APRIL this year. I was really nervous because it was my first time singing on stage alone without my members. I definitely felt the importance of my members.”

Following the broadcast, Naeun shared her thoughts on APRIL’s Twitter account, along with several photos of herself with her mask. She wrote, “The identity of ‘Ah~ it’s sour, the refreshing voice that clears your head’ Lemon was Naeun. Fineapple [APRIL’s fandom] is currently over-consuming vitamin C through Naeun’s lemon-like refreshing voice. Thank you, everyone.”
