Contents
The idea for the program began with the documentary Searching For Sugar Man, which refers to the 2012 Swedish-British documentary about American musician Sixto Rodriguez, who faded into obscurity in the United States but somehow ended up as a megastar in South Africa.
The program revolves around the battle of two teams led by Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Hee-yeol. Each team will brings back a "Sugar Man": the singer who was a one-hit wonder, but has since disappeared from the public eye. The two teams recreate the old song, "Sugar Song", into new versions which will make them appealing to today's music market. To relive their glory, the songs will be recreated by each producer from each team with today's artist, "Show Man", who are slated to change every episode.
