# I Can See Your Voice (Belgian game show)

I Can See Your Voice is a Belgian Dutch-language television mystery music game show series based on the South Korean programme of the same title. It premiered on VTM on 26 March 2022, and has aired for three seasons.

## Gameplay
### Format

Presented with a group of seven "mystery singers", the guest artist(s) and a group of two contestants must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group without ever hearing them sing, assisted by clues and a celebrity panel over the course of five 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.
If the last remaining mystery singer is good, the contestants win €2,500; this is also applied to the winning bad singer selected by them.

### Rounds
#### Visual round

* First impression (Dutch: Eerste indruk)
    s1–3: The guest artist and contestants are given some time to observe and examine each mystery singer based on their appearance.

#### Lip sync round

* Lip sync (Dutch: Lipsynchronisatie)
    s1–3: 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.

#### Evidence round

* Test picture (Dutch: Testbeeld)
    s1–3: The guest artist and contestants are presented with a video package containing possible clues by one of the mystery singers.

#### Rehearsal round

* Sound box (Dutch: Klankkast)
    s1–3: The guest artist and contestants are presented with video from a recording session by one of the mystery singers, but pitch-shifted to obscure their actual vocals.

#### Interrogation round

* Interrogation (Dutch: De ondervraging)
    s1–3: The guest artist and contestants may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.
