I Can See Your Voice (abbreviated as ICSYV; Korean: 너의 목소리가 보여; RR: Neoui moksoriga boyeo; MR: Nŏŭi moksorika poyŏ) is an international television mystery music game show franchise that originated from the South Korean program of the same name,[2][3] which is created by producer Lee Seon-young.

Background

[edit]

In 2012, producer and creator Lee Seon-young initially planned to develop a singing reality competition show that includes "good singers". She would unusually add elements with "bad singers", lip sync, and "guessing game" flairs,[4] creating a unique format that would become the "mystery music game show" in the process.[3] Also, she originally envisioned a program that will allow anyone to be the main character regardless of their appearances, inspired by Kim Bum-soo who struggled to gain recognition because of his look.[5]

I Can See Your Voice made its debut on Mnet and tvN on February 26, 2015, with host Kim Bum-soo as a guest artist, playing the game.[1] Despite the poor reception in its first season, the show went on to become an instant success in South Korea, forcing to renew for a second season.[6]

Gameplay

[edit]

Formats

[edit]

Original format

[edit]

Presented with a group of "mystery singers", the guest artist(s) must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group without ever hearing them sing, assisted by clues and celebrity panel over the course of several rounds. At the end of a game, the last remaining mystery singer is revealed as either good or bad by means of a duet between them and one of the guest artists.[7][8]

Battle format

[edit]

The "battle format" is a variation of the original South Korean rules that introduced in Giọng ải giọng ai, when two opposing guest artists eliminate one singer each during the proper game phase, and then remain one singer each to join the final performance. At the end of a game, the following conditions for winning mystery singers chosen by opposing guest artists, depending on the outcome of final performances, if:[9]

  1. One opposing guest artist has revealed as a good singer and the other one has a bad singer, or
  2. Both two opposing guest artists have revealed as good or bad singers.

For Veo cómo cantas in Mexico, two oppposing contestants must eliminate one mystery singer from an assigned group. At the end of first two or three rounds, the contestant having of a least one or two bad singer eliminations will proceed to the next round.[10]

Players

[edit]

The game's main element, "mystery singers", are a lineup of selections played by the guest artist(s), having divided into good and bad singers.[a] Actually, the winning mystery singer can perform freely without accompanying guest artist(s).[12] Beside them, it also involved civilian or celebrity contestants as "eliminators".[8] Some lineup variations include:

  • For a mixed group, if all of the members are good singers but including of at least one bad singer, they are actually classified as "bad".
  • The "surprise" entrant, when a mystery singer stands inside an enclosure and remain concealed until its revelation by being eliminated or a final performance by one of the guest artists.

Rewards

[edit]

Throughout the game, mystery singers, contestants, and to lesser extent guest artists have given rewards such as prize money, trophy, or recording contract.[8] Some commonly used methods include:

  • The eliminated or winning singer, regardless of being good or bad, gets a cash prize. With contestant(s) involved, if the singer is good, they win a cash prize; if the singer is bad, the same amount is given to the bad singer instead.
  • The contestant(s) must eliminate one mystery singer at the end of each round, receiving a petty cash if they eliminate a bad singer. At the end of a game, the contestant(s) may either end the game and keep the money they had won in previous rounds, or risk it for a chance to win a main prize by correctly guessing whether the last remaining mystery singer is good or bad.

Rounds

[edit]

For its game phase, the mystery singers must examine for legitimacy through different rounds with varying mechanics.

Visual rounds

[edit]

The guest artist(s) and contestant(s) are given some time to observe and examine each mystery singer based on their appearance.

  • A muted video of each mystery singer that reveals only 0.3 seconds of their singing voice is played as an additional hint.
  • Each mystery singer is given two different identities as a good and bad singer, with one of them is a real identity.

Lip sync rounds

[edit]

Each mystery singer performs a lip sync to a song; good singers mime to a recording of their own, while bad singers mime to a recording by someone else.

  • Also for the pair and batch variations, the guest artist(s) and contestant(s) eliminate one mystery singer from each group.
  • The mystery singer lip syncs to the good singer's recording, then a bad singer's recording comes in the middle of the performance.

Evidence rounds

[edit]

Each mystery singer reveals an evidential piece. Good singers have own evidences, while bad singers had their evidences fabricated.

  • The hosts have randomly assigned clues about the mystery singer, and then the guest artist(s) and contestant(s) must choose a clue for each one.
  • The guest artist(s) and contestant(s) are presented with a video package containing possible clues by one of the mystery singers; this includes "house tour", "personal life", or "witness" variations.

Rehearsal rounds

[edit]

Each mystery singer reveals a pre-show rehearsal piece, but their voices are actually concealed through audio distortion.

  • Three random panelists are wearing headphones to listen to a recording of assigned mystery singer that lasts for a short duration. Afterward, the panelist defends the mystery singer and convince the guest artist(s) and contestant(s) to choose them as the winner.
  • The guest artist(s) and contestant(s) are presented with video from a recording session by one of the mystery singers, but pitch-shifted to obscure their actual vocals.

Interrogation rounds

[edit]

The guest artist(s) and contestant(s) may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.

  • Each mystery singer has to confess what kind of identity they have if the singer is bad.

Other variations

[edit]

The Golden Mic is used by guest artists or contestants that introduced in the American adaptation, in which they may hear additional clues and observations to mystery singers from a celebrity guest off-stage.[8]

Reception

[edit]

Legacy

[edit]

Unlike reality singing competition shows such as Idol, Rising Star, The Voice and The X Factor, I Can See Your Voice is one of the game shows that are considered as a "stepping stone" for aspiring singers to perform effortlessly,[13] referring to as the "second coming of National Singing Contest" because of its sudden impact on their local music industry;[14] some featured participants include Hwang Chi-yeul,[15] Lee Sun-bin,[16] and Kim Min-kyu.[17]

Controversies

[edit]

In August 2015, CJ ENM accused two (locally unlicensed) programs, God of Songs by SZTV and X-Singer by Beijing TV, of plagiarism. They have also implement on modified game mechanics, strikingly similar to the original format of I Can See Your Voice without having permission from the said company.[18][19]

During an interview with CJ ENM head of formats Diane Min in June 2020, she revealed that there was a dispute with Is That Really Your Voice?, another game show format by the Turkey-based Global Agency launched in 2013, in which I Can See Your Voice was accused as being plagiarized from their format.[20]

Accolades

[edit]

I Can See Your Voice has been nominated for Best Non-Scripted Entertainment Program at the 44th International Emmy Awards,[21] Best Light Entertainment Program at 2020 Venice TV Awards,[22] and Studio Entertainment Award at 2023 Rose d'Or.[23][24]
