Immortal Songs: Singing the Legend (Hangul: 불후의 명곡: 전설을 노래하다; RR: Bulhu-ui Myeong-gok: Jeonseoreul Noraehada), also known as Immortal Songs 2 (Hangul: 불후의 명곡 2), is a South Korean television music competition program presented by Shin Dong-yup. It is a revival of Immortal Songs (2007–2009), and each episode features talented singers who perform their reinterpreted versions of songs by the legendary singer.
Originally broadcast as Immortal Songs 2 as a part of KBS Saturday Freedom, each episode featured six idol singers who would perform songs by the legendary singer of the episode. After restructuring in 2012, the show returned on April 7th as an independent program, Immortal Songs: Singing the Legend. Each episode now features seven singers, both experienced and talented rookies. As before, they each perform their own reinterpreted versions of famous songs by the legendary singer of the episode.
Guest singers are seated in a waiting room with the three hosts, where they introduce themselves to viewers. Performance order is decided randomly by ball drawing before each round, and the 500 member audience votes after each round for their favorite performance.
