# I Can See Your Voice Thailand

I Can See Your Voice Thailand (alternatively titled Secret Singers; Thai: นักร้องซ่อนแอบ; RTGS: Nak rong son aep) is a Thai television mystery music game show series based on the South Korean programme of the same title. Also as the first country to air its local adaptation, it premiered on Workpoint TV on 13 January 2016, and has aired for six seasons.

## Gameplay
### Format

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 a celebrity panel over the course of four 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.
The Thai adaptation has two different game formats:
* Original format
    The guest artist(s) 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.
* Battle format (s3–4)
    A variation of the original South Korean rules adapted from 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:
* One opposing guest artist has revealed as a good singer and the other one has a bad singer, or
* Both two opposing guest artists have revealed as good or bad singers.

### Rounds
#### Visual rounds

* s1–4, 6: The guest artist is given some time to observe and examine each mystery singer based on their appearance. Afterward, a muted video of each mystery singer that reveals only 0.3 seconds of their singing voice is played as an additional hint.
* s5: The host is given three "keywords" depending on the mystery singer's identity. Afterward, five different voice snippets from the muted video are being played.

#### Introduction round

* s1–5: Each mystery singer self-introduces to guest artist and panelists. Good singers are telling the truth, while bad singers are allowed to lie.

#### Lip sync rounds

* s1–4, 6: 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.
* s5: All of mystery singers perform their lip sync on separate phases, with the good singers' recordings first, and then the bad singers last.

#### Evidence round

* s5: The guest artist must assign three "mystery songs" to one of the mystery singers of their chosen. Afterward, they must react toward that song.

#### Interrogation round

* s1–2, 6: The guest artist (and then panelists) may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.

#### Talent round

* s1–6: The guest artist must describe one of the mystery singer's other talents, except "singing" itself. This may not be related to the "stage of truth", but depends on their identity.
