# Qui sait chanter? season 1

The first season of the Canadian French-language television mystery music game show Qui sait chanter? premiered on Noovo on 13 September 2021.

## Gameplay
### Format

According to original South Korean rules, the guest artist and contestant eliminate mystery singers at the end of each round, with the last remaining mystery singer ended up in a duet performance by one of the guest artists.
The contestant must eliminate one mystery singer at the end of each round, receiving CA$3,000 if they eliminate a bad singer. At the end of a game, if the contestant decides to walk away, they will keep the money had won in previous rounds; if they decide to risk for the last remaining mystery singer, they win CA$25,000 if a singer is good, or lose their all winnings if a singer is bad.

### Rounds

* Playback (French: Relecture) Divided into two groups of three mystery singers, each of them have to perform a lip sync of their own. At the conclusion of performances, the contestant eliminates one mystery singer from each group.
* Access code (French: Code d'accès) The guest artist and contestant are presented with a video package containing possible clues by one of the mystery singers.
* Secret studio (French: Studio secret) The guest artist and contestant are presented with video from a recording session by one of the mystery singers, but pitch-shifted to obscure their actual vocals.
* Interrogation (French: Interrogatoire) The guest artist and contestant may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.
