Roommate
The special meeting with the veteran actor Lee Soon Jae.
[Soon Jae born in 1935] [Young Ji born in 1994]
The 59 year difference doesn't seem to be an issue.
Our personable Roommates won Soon Jae over.
It feels like I'm in a cast.
The special friendship that transcended their generational difference.
And they'll try out our traditional martial art, Taekkyon.
[Jump, spin, and fall] [Will they be able to manage this?]
Plus, the g.o.d. concert that attracted a crowd of 40,000 people.
The Roommates attended g.o.d.'s 15th anniversary concert.
[My goodness... rumor has it that Joon was bawling?]
Learn.
Share.
And enjoy!
Home share. Whole share. Roommate.
It's starting now.
Another morning has come to our Roommates' house.
Jong Ok is the first one up.
Sunny, you should get up now. It's getting late.
You're up for making breakfast this morning.
Hurry up and come down.
[Half-asleep]
Today, Jong Ok and Sunny are supposed to make breakfast.
[Jong Ok started making breakfast alone.]
Fruit and sandwiches are for breakfast this morning.
- Did you wake the kids up? - Is it late?
Supposed to leave at 9:30 to learn Taekkyon.
Really?
I'd like to pick a sport everyone can learn together.
- That'll be great. - How about a combat sport?
You want us to learn a combat sport?
- You know about our traditional sport. - You mean Taekkyon?
What's Taekkyon? Something where you move slowly?
[So it was decided everyone will learn Taekkyon together.]
Isn't that a mask dance?
They'll be shocked when they see me without makeup.
[My face will be just as shocking.]
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Good morning.
[Sunny is waking everyone up one by one.]
Come on. Stop kicking and wake up.
Ajooma, get up. Get up.
Get up!
[Yikes!]
Have fun at the Taekkyon lesson, 'yi-kuh, eh-kuh'
Who cares about 'yi-kuh, eh-kuh' first thing in the morning?
Big brothers, get up. Get up.
It's done. I woke them up.
Jong Ok and Sunny went to go see Mr. Lee Soon Jae's play.
- Unni! - Oh my! You startled me.
I'm here.
- Have some of this. - Okay.
[The gigantic shaved ice]
You probably don't get many chances to come to Dongsung-dong.
I used to come here a lot when I was in musical theater.
[What's 'Grandpa' Soon Jae up to backstage before the curtain goes up?]
[He's rehearsing his lines with actress Na Moon Hee.]
Don't be ridiculous. What kind of work can you do now?
[Sunny and Jong Ok have arrived at the theater.]
Can I see Mr. Lee Soon Jae for a moment?
[Carefully opening the door to the waiting room.]
[So engrossed they don't even realize Jong Ok and Sunny have came in.]
- Jong Ok! - Hi.
Hi, how are you?
[The 'Grandpa' is greeting them happily.]
[Saying hello to Moon Hee, also.]
Lee Soon Jae and Na Moon Hee are happy to see them.
- Are you going to be okay? - Why? Do I look like I'm about to collapse?
I know you have good stamina. Just asking since it's a tough performance.
- It's so good to see you. - Likewise.
- You're just the same. - How are you doing nowadays?
Heard you are in the show, 'Roommate.'
That show's fun. 'Running Man' is also fun.
- Are you having fun with Jong Ok? - Yes.
This is a great play.
It's good.
I feel blessed I can still be on stage at this age.
One of the issues face being on stage after 70 is the memory.
Between the two of us, there are over 400 lines.
We practice together everyday.
We go through all our lines together before each performance.
Lines should come out without any hesitation.
You can't take your time.
So if you can be on stage
is decided by whether or not you can keep up the pace.
On TV, you can just edit things out so you don't need to prepare that much.
But that's not the case in theater.
Theater actors who like to drink may need to cut down on their drinking.
That way, you'll get to do things you like to do little longer.
Please go on with your rehearsal. I'll see you after the performance.
- It was good to see you. - Same here. We'll enjoy the play.
She's nice. She came all the way here.
- She's so pretty. - Yes, I know.
Because it's time for her to get married.
As you know, the Roommates have agreed to learn Taekkyon.
So they went to a nearby Taekkyon Experience Center.
- It looks really cool. - One. Two. Three.
I jumped really high just now.
Recently, I've been jumping the highest.
[Since we've warmed up, let's go and learn Taekkyon.]
'Yi-kuh, eh-kuh', Taekkyeon's interesting battle cry.
It's a traditional martial art where you attack with either
smooth dance-like movements...
or with using legs to trip the opponent.
It's also been designated as one of Korea's intangible cultural asset.
Will the Roommates be able to learn this?
[The First Story] [Jackson, the Taekkyon Genius]
- Is this your first time seeing Taekkyon? - Yes, this is my first time.
It's my first time, too.
Okay, this is Go Yoon Young and Lee Ji Soo.
They'll give a Taekkyon demonstration.
[Anticipation]
[Starting with a strong cry.]
[Something is... strange?]
- That was dangerous. - Was that a mistake?
[Embarrassed]
I thought that was for real.
[Back to the demonstration.]
This is a technique used for defending against an armed opponent.
[Complete domination.]
- The best. - Really like a butterfly.
But I saw you made a step so you can be defeated.
[Please come up.]
[Politely made a 'leg-step'?]
My impression of Taekkyon has been that it's light and smooth.
I was little surprised to see all this hitting and jumping.
What's the dance-like movement about?
Is that to help or to instigate the opponent?
I think it's to confuse the opponent.
Should I attack or not?
The swinging movement is the precursor movement...
either to trip and flip over the opponent...
or to head lock to flip over the opponent.
So it has various meanings in terms of technique.
- So you're in a continuous rhythm. - That's correct.
So it's kind of like playing hard to get.
You'll see this type of Taekkyon movement
depicted in the murals of the ancient tombs.
[Time to get changed into Taekkyon attire.]
I feel like a foreigner in a new year's special in this outfit.
[I'm Korean.]
Do you feel little awkward in this outfit?
I like it. It's comfortable.
The most important thing is not getting hurt.
So we should do plenty of stretching.
[Young Ji is doing a split right away.]
Like this.
Young Ji, you're doing that pretty well.
[Stretching began!]
[Struggling Gook Ju.]
[But for Young Ji, it's a piece of cake.]
Nice job.
Young Ji, have you been training or something?
My dance teacher forced me to do the splits.
[Flexible. Demonstrating her splits!]
It's not such a pretty scene from behind but...
anyway, you do that well.
[Got the giggles the middle of stretching.]
Your posture became weird because you're laughing.
You look like Cucumber now.
Wow, Young Ji is really flexible.
[Taekkyon stretching, step one: legs.]
But Gook Ju seems like she's struggling.
[Ouch]
[The curse of stiff thighs.]
[Non-stop shrieking.]
Whoa, I guess I don't use these muscles.
I seriously need to do some exercise.
[Taekkyon stretching, step two.] [Chest to feet.]
Begin.
One. Two. Three.
Push it down.
I don't have any chest.
Me neither. I think that's why my chest won't touch my feet.
Good job.
[We were this stiff?]
Let's see who yells out 'yi-kuh, eh-kuh' the best.
Sure.
[Gook Ju takes on a rhythm and on a roll.]
[Excited]
[She has good rhythm.]
Now, let's start moving.
As if a crab was walking.
'Yi-kuh, eh-kuh'
[By the way, why is this movement seems familiar?]
[Young Ji]
'Yi-kuh, eh-kuh'
Fess up. You took your dance moves from Taekkyon, didn't you?
[Their dance number, 'Do it Like Me' is similar to Taekkyon's movement.]
[Synchronized 100 percent.]
What's this?
I'm not sure but I think it means you're accepting the challenge.
But this is... this is...
This is in our 'Mama Mia' move.
[Isn't it the same?]
That's kind of far-fetched.
This is in our 'Mama Mia' movement.
I still think that's little forced. It's actually this.
[The instructor is riding the wave.]
The person may not realize
but this movement is to follow the flow of the 'Chi.'
[Like this?] That's it!
[Praise will make Young Ji dance.]
[Joon is the 'wave' expert.]
[With little encouragement, Joon transforms into a B-boy.]
[Kick!]
[A gigantic fender bender.]
[Oh my goodness!]
[Fell together trying to help.]
Right then, Jackson arrived.
[Finally, Roommate's martial arts hidden ace has appeared.]
You need to win over the instructor. We're all discouraged.
- Okay, were you losing? - Two of us were getting reprimanded.
Okay, then I'll win.
[Okay, let me see what you can do.]
[This is indeed martial arts.]
[Not too bad.]
[I'm also not too bad.]
[Then I should...]
[The Master's skill is?]
The instructor's expert movement after training for Taekkyon for 20 years.
[Jackson, the man's man, can't retreat here.]
[The king of martial arts, Jackson]
We have to win!
[Whoa]
Okay, now the demonstration team is on.
[Emergency swap to a younger team.]
The 18-year-old Taekkyon veteran vs. Jackson.
[Can't be lose!]
[You see?]
[Come on, you!]
[The demonstration team's leg-split counterattack.]
[Slightly intimidated.]
[Let me give it a shot.]
[Yikes!]
[Puhahahahaha]
[The end of forced leg-split.]
I think Taekkyon's movement is smooth and beautiful.
Now, they are going to learn real Taekkyon techniques.
The components of Taekkyon are, first, 'Poom-steps'...
the second, 'Taen-jook', is to attack the opponent’s lower body to make him fall.
And next, the kicking technique is called 'Bal-jil.'
- Bal-jil. - Taen-jook, Bal-jil.
Lastly, the defense technique using hands is called 'Sohn-jil.'
Sohn-jil.
And now, this is 'Hwai-moek-chi-gi,' a kind of Taen-jook technique.
It's called that because you attack the opponent's ankle.
If it doesn't work, see what happens. Let me see your right foot.
Push to the opposite direction and then...
You had no idea your instructor would go this far, did you?
[I guess I'm little mad.]
Even if he's your instructor, he should have given you a warning.
She wouldn't get hurt even if she fell from a second story building.
[What?]
What are you talking about?
[Immediately pouncing on the Master.]
You should look for a different instructor. I'll help you find a new one.
Hi everyone, we're looking for a new Taekkyon instructor.
I'm looking for a new instructor. Please help me.
[Sweating profusely.]
Okay, Jackson, please come forward.
Put your right foot forward.
Your right foot, like this and relax.
Let me show you how you can attack using Taen-jook technique.
[Anxious]
[Wobble]
Mommy!
[I guess Mommy is Gook Ju.] That's okay. That's okay.
If you attack as you get up, the force increases by three times.
Squat down and as you get up
push the ankle of the opponent using bottom of your foot.
[Now, time for real sparring!]
[What?]
Try it slowly.
As you go in, put your body closer to the opponent and then...
[Mommy!]
[Bring it on!]
[Turned into a nasty fight in a second.]
[Gook Ju is pressing down with her weight.]
[Looks good.]
[This is the Taekkyon practice yard with lots of love.]
[Now, Joon and Jackson's turn to spar.]
[Crash]
Your elbow.
[Joon's unique technique for falling.]
[Are you okay?]
Now, we're going to talk about kicking.
This is an easy technique called 'Strong-kick.'
First squat and kick as you get up.
Ready.
Are you all set?
[Right then, the instructor moves toward someone.]
[Strips]
[The instructor tenderly adjusts Gook Ju's breast-tie.]
[That's very manly.]
[Surprised]
[Embarrassed]
[Oh my goodness.]
The next is to slap the opponent's cheek with your foot.
It's called 'Foot-slapping.'
[Slap someone with your foot?] Foot-slapping?
Let's see a demonstration. Ready, set, go.
'Yi-kuh, eh-kuh'..
[Eh-kuh!]
[It kind of hurt my feelings...] I'll receive this time.
[Young will attack and Gook Ju will receive.]
[You come over here.]
[The terror of Gook Ju's stomach massage.]
By the way, she did that quite well. [Should I try it, too?]
- It's difficult to stop right here. - Joon want to try it, too?
[Yikes!]
[What are we going to do, Gook Ju!]
[Here you go!]
Joon, your foot felt kind of damp.
It's like the feeling you get the day after
a torrential downpour during the rainy season.
[The cheek feels kind of damp...]
We've been exercising for a while.
Not only that, Joon's foot is like 180 millimeters.
- It's 290 millimeters. - Oh, was it 190?
[Joon's foot length is 290 millimeters (size 13)]
That's right. 290 millimeters.
We normally don't see kicking moves in martial arts from other countries.
Only Taekkyon has a so called, 'Side-kick.'
It's alright.
Would you be able to kick his face when you're so close to him?
- No, you can't. - I can't?
[Whoa]
- Oh, you can do it. - Because it's a side-kick. Should we try?
So cool.
[Ouch, that hurts.]
[Mommy!]
[So you want to duke it out, huh?]
[Abyo.]
[I also know some martial arts, man.]
I was scared.
Now, using the techniques you've learned, we'll pair up to do some sparring.
- Should we try 'Stepping on foot' match? - Yes.
I'll pick my opponent and try it out.
I'd like a round with my friend.
[Nana vs. Go Yoon Young apprentice.]
Attention. Bow.
[Please take good care of me.]
Ready. Set. Go.
[Starting with Taekkyon's distinctive triangular steps.]
[Looking for her chance to attack.]
[Fighting]
[Who will be the final winner?]
[Nana got her ankle caught.]
This is hard.
[Jackson is out for revenge.]
Let's sing 'Arirang.'
[Hip-hop style rhythm.]
[The match begins!]
[Showing the nimbleness of a fencer on the national team.]
[Oh, he's quite good.]
[Missed but satisfying attack.]
[Aiming at Jackson's right foot but attacks his left foot.]
[No]
[Now, Jackson's counterattack!]
[You got it!]
Jackson!
Mommy... I'm on TV.
And I won.
[Mommy, I'm the champion.]
Roommates, the big match.
Whoever can make the opponent fall with a kick or by tripping wins the match.
[Joon vs Jackson's kicking match]
Attention. Bow.
Shake hands now.
[JPD brothers' promise to play fair.]
If you feel like you're going to get hurt...
you need to yell out. Then you won't get hurt.
When you fall, say, aah...
[Surprised]
[Puhaha]
Just now, I couldn't hear out of my right ear.
[The strong yell made his ear momentarily stunned.]
Arirang begin.
[With light steps, they're feeling each other out.]
[Go ahead. Pounce.]
[Joon's surprise preemptive strike.]
[Don't strike my nose, Joon.]
There is no seniority in this match. You just need to win.
Hurry up and show us something.
[JYP brothers are gradually showing their competitiveness.]
Attack!
[Whoa!]
[Joon's got his vulnerable spot kicked.]
[Oh my god, I'm going to die!]
Joon, that must have hurt!
[I'm sorry, Joon.]
[Crawling]
- The lower village won. - Hooray!
Did you say the lower village won?
- Right now, the lower village is... - Not the lower body, the lower village.
[Cough]
[The PTSD from losing doesn't go away that easily.]
Joon will need to rest at least an hour.
[Joon, you did well.]
- Are you okay, Joon? - Yes.
- What happened to your voice? - I'm not sure what happened.
[Joon's voice went falsetto due to the big shock.]
I didn't know you could strike the lower village during a Taekkyon match.
He became a sister, a sister.
- Sister. Sister. - Sister Joon.
If you could help make Taekkyon known throughout the world
I'd greatly appreciate it.
- Thank you so much. - We had a fun time. Thank you!
Everyone seems to be enticed by the appeal of Taekkyon.
[I'll see you later, Young Ji.]
Wait a minute. Jackson is kind of mad at me.
No, Jackson, you're much cooler.
Because I said Taecyeon from 2PM cool.
[I'm not going to hang out with you.]
I think Goo Hara is much prettier.
[What are you doing?]
You know, I said Taecyeon is cool, he got mad at me.
Okay, I know. I know I'm short.
I didn't say that because of that!
So what if you're short?
They are our cute bickering youngsters.
I think they're going to date.
[Jong Ok and Sunny are now in the theater watching the play.]
The play 'Golden Pond' shows the conflict and the reconciliation
of family members through a story of an old couple.
['Grandpa' Soon Jae is playing the lead.]
- Honey, someone's at the door. - It's me, honey.
[Soon Jae and Moon Hee seem like a real couple.]
[Surprised]
Honey... just a minute.
[She's completely engrossed in the play.]
Two of them are completely captivated by
the performance of the veteran actor and actress.
Please, God, do not take him yet.
You have no use for someone like him.
[Even at the sad scene, they know how to make people laugh.]
This is the first time I felt that death is a reality to us.
I knew it a long time ago.
[It's time to reexamine the real meaning of life.]
Bye. [Finally, the play is over...]
[That was great!]
The theater is filled with emotions from the outstanding performance of veteran actors.
[Grandpa Soon Jae is the best.]
Wow, that was really good. It was really good.
We enjoyed your play very much.
- You must be tired. - Yes.
I'd like to invite you over to our house It's pretty close from there.
- Really, you're going to give me dinner? - Of course.
What would you like to have?
- I like everything. - Still, tell us what you like.
- I like everything. - I'll make the younger ones prepare dinner.
I know you like noodles.
Sure, maybe you can make some Janchi noodles.
Okay, let's go and call them.
- Then come and meet us at the lobby. - Okay.
I was so moved. I enjoyed it very much.
- It was little sad at the end. - I know.
Let's call the kids.
- Call them and see what they can prepare. - Yes.
Who's at the house now?
- Joon must be at home. - Joon?
[Surprised]
Hi, how are you?
[Another veteran actor, Jo Jae Hyun!]
You should come and visit us sometime.
You know, I'm on the show 'Roommate.'
The house is right around the corner in Seongbuk-dong.
We just watched Mr. Lee Soon Jae's play.
You're kind of short. You're one of us.
Come visit us. I'm inviting you.
[After saying goodbye to Jo Jae Hyun...]
[they headed to the house with Grandpa Soon Jae.]
How come there are so many 'cannons'? (Referring to the cameras.)
So many cameras have to follow us around to film this, you know.
They even film us sleeping.
Really? You mean they even film women sleeping?
Yes.
It's not like it's pornography or anything...
- But there is nothing erotic. - That's fine.
Who are the male members of the house?
Lee Dong Wook.
- He sleeps at the house also? - Yes, everyone does.
Well, if you do it right someone could get hitched.
[It's going to be fun having Grandpa Soon Jae over!]
Meanwhile, at the house...
[Kang Joon is passed out after his schedule.]
[Roommates are returning to the house after the Taekkyon lesson.]
[What's my roommate, Kang Joon doing?]
Look at him sleeping like sleeping beauty.
[Staring]
[Right then, Joon thought of something.]
We need to do something for him.
[What the heck is he doing?]
[He's putting something on top of Kang Joon's body.]
[G...Genius?]
[While we're at it, how about one more?]
[The sexy guy, Kang Joon]
[The 46-year-old big brother, Joon, taking a confirmation shot.]
[Ta-dah]
[Sorry, Kang Joon. I couldn't protect you.]
[Meanwhile, what's happening with Cucumber?]
[When nobody is around, Cucumber attempts an escape!]
[Jump]
[I'm definitely going to escape.]
[I am a Beagle, the dog of evil.]
[Cucumber's first attempted escape was a success.]
[Where is Cucumber headed to?]
[Nana is in the middle of putting on her makeup.]
I should just put on my eye makeup... and go.
[Cucumber suddenly appears.]
Hi.
Cucumber, your drew your eyeliner on super well.
You drew it so dark. It looks really good.
Why are your feet so dirty?
[Because I escaped.]
[Sister Nana]
You've really chilled out. You're so cute.
[Nana has no idea Cucumber escaped.]
[Cucumber is behaving after he's caused trouble.]
Come on. I think we should decorate our room better.
[All other rooms have been decorated nicely.]
Should we do the wall? I have some sprays.
[Giving a shot at decorating their room.]
[Watched graffiti videos as a reference.]
[We could probably do it?]
This is really... really a challenge.
Let's say we'll put the letters up here.
And then, we'll put a picture of your and my face.
Why don't we just go wild with the wall first?
Let's be free with the background and we'll put our pictures up.
[Serious]
[At this moment, I'm a designer.]
They're too far apart.
Something should go in between.
- Let's go wild. - Wild? Really?
[Spray randomly.]
[Excited]
[Came up with a 'gas mask' to protect themselves from the smell.]
[Wonder how the room will transform?]
[Did we do this right?]
[They finish up decorating with their pictures.]
[Proud!]
Looks okay.
Don't you think this looks pretty?
[Shiny and beautiful]
[The Second Story.] [Soon Jae Is 80 Years Old.]
The god of acting. The people's actor, Lee Soon Jae.
Wonder what the meeting between him and the Roommates will be like?
- Oh, Joon. - Yeah.
Oh, hi, how are you?
Nice to meet you.
You were downstairs.
Mr. Soon Jae came to visit.
[Everyone is rushing out.]
- These are boarders? - Yes, they are.
[The first floor roommates instantly became boarders.]
They don't pay for the room and board. But they chip in for the living expenses.
Soon Jae, here are shoes for you.
[The most senior person in the industry has appeared.]
[Jackson... Kang Joon... Joon Hyung...]
Please have a seat.
[All the guys are super-nervous...]
[Sunny is just like a granddaughter.]
We've got to hurry.
What do we need do?
[An impromptu meeting in the kitchen]
[to find a solution to Soon Jae's visit.]
- This is the room I share with Jong Ok. - Really?
Well, since she's the oldest, she sleeps in the nicest room.
- I guess so. - Yeah, I know.
This room belongs to three guys and they made it into a toy room.
Hence, it's a complete 'dog park.' (mess)
They are guys after all.
- The view seems nice. - Yes, it is.
The view is really nice here.
[This is the gorgeous view from our second floor living room.]
This makes me anxious. Would you like a hand?
No, thank you.
Worried he might get hurt, she can't keep her eyes off of him.
[Grandpa, please be careful.]
[Tightly holding on.]
They look like a kind grandfather and a granddaughter.
- So this is the kitchen. - Everyone seems busy.
Soon Jae, please have a cup of tea.
So when would you be working on your next album?
Well, now...
it should be 'Women's Generation' not 'Girls' Generation.'
Why?
It really should be 'Women's Generation.'
So Seo Jin hasn't called you?
[The two of them met on 'Flower Grandpa Investigative Unit.']
Ah, seriously.
Please stop.
I guess there is a bit of an age difference.
Of course. That's not it.
There is a bit of age difference...
It's not just 'a bit.' There is a 'huge' age difference.
- How many years?
Who cares about an age gap when it comes to love?
- 20 years? - Almost 20 years.
That's ridiculous. How could you do that to Sunny?
[Grandpa, I'm going to get married later.]
Have a seat.
[They want to get to know Grandpa Soon Jae.]
I'm going to go get changed. I'll be right back.
[They are cute.]
[For now, sat next to Grandpa but...]
[I have no idea what to say...]
They will feel super-awkward. I should hurry up and join them soon.
Right? They're going to be uncomfortable. I should join them soon.
So what are you doing about schools?
[59 years difference.] [Not easy to find a common topic.]
[Sweating profusely.]
[At that moment, the savior Sunny came back.]
- It's been one month since you debuted? - No, it's been two months.
Oh, since you debuted?
- It's been eight months since he debuted. - Eight months?
It's been eight years for me.
So you're one of the granny's among the idols.
Yes, totally.
Well, she's not quite a granny, but perhaps like an auntie.
That's right. You're like an auntie.
How long have you been acting?
In two years, it'll be 60 years.
Whoa! That's amazing!
The first time I started acting was in 1956.
I went to college in 1954.
I started acting in my third year in college, so that's 1956.
During the Japanese occupation...
[He was 11 years old when the country was liberated from the Japanese rule.]
[A 1993 birthday is listening seriously.]
So I experienced the war.
[He was in high school when the Korean War broke out.]
Kim Il Sung and...
President Lee Sung Man.
President Yoon Bo Sun.
President Park Jung Hee.
[He remembers exactly all the presidents and important events!]
[A turbulent 80 years.]
There was the 5.16.
[5.16?] (The military coup on May 16th, 1961)
If it hadn't been for the amendment limiting presidential terms...
[A vivid dose of history to the new generation.]
- Wow, that's amazing. - Oh...
[Grandpa's modern Korean history lesson, The End.]
Young Ji is bringing down something.
So where did you go to school when you were in Japan?
- I went to a college in Tokyo. - Is that right?
[By any chance... that is?]
Young Ji brought down her massager.
[I wanted to give him a massage.]
I'm so embarrassed.
You're the one who brought it down so why am I embarrassed?
#
[Grandpa, this feels good.]
[Right then, Jackson joins the group.]
[Why did you bring this down?]
[I wanted to give Grandpa a massage.]
[I don't know. I'm scared.]
[Looking for a chance to give him a massage.]
[I'll help you.]
[He has no idea what's going on.]
[Starting to give him a massage.]
[Jackson is also slowly getting into his position...]
[The massage begins!]
- That's for your face? - Yes.
Massaging the face won't do anything.
[1. Face massager]
It won't do any good now.
This is for your leg. This goes around... [2. Leg massager]
[Whoa]
Would you stretch out your leg over here?
- Stretch it out like this? - Yes.
[Grandpa's posture is becoming more sensuous.]
[Puhaha]
It feels like I put on a cast.
[Everyone has come together in a big way through this massage.]
[Warm and friendly Hong Kong-style massage.]
[What's going on?]
[Puhahahaha]
I made this myself.
I made some French toast before dinner.
Then that's it for my dinner.
- We also have rice. - This will be my dinner.
You need to stretch... stretch out your legs.
[My goodness, too much is going on.]
Now, your jacket...
So you're stripping me slowly?
[So busy trying to eat toast and receive massages...]
[Jackson wears Grandpa's jacket.]
Why would you wear that?
[Slightly chaotic.]
I'm going to take a picture of this.
You won't be able to see this kind of rare scene at least for another 20 years.
One. Two. Three.
Soon Jae and Roommates are getting closer
forgetting about their big age difference.
[Young Ji brought down something else.]
- What is that? - This is a janggu.
- I used to play janggu. - Is that right?
[For Grandpa, the music will play.]
[A performance before the meal, a janggu recital.]
[The second performance before dinner.] [Playing the piano.]
[Everyone is enjoying Young Ji's performance.]
[Puhaha]
Oh, I think you seem more comfortable now.
[The music won't stop here.]
I feel like I've become the king of Joseon Dynasty.
What are you doing wearing his jacket?
I'm wearing it because I didn't know where to put it.
I'm called the Hong Kong Clothes Hanger.
What about Sunny?
Grandpa, I'm too old for that.
So what if you're old.
[Yo, whatsup man.]
[High five for Soon Jae!]
We'll begin our entertainment for you.
[Young Ji and Sunny got together!]
[Enjoying the performance along with the Hong Kong Clothes Hanger.]
Oppa, just a minute.
Oh, hi, how are you?
[Se Ho has come back home.]
[What? What are they doing?]
B... B... Bow first.
[Without thinking much, he bows first.]
When I came in, I was completely surprised.
We all had a mini-performance here.
Now, it's your turn.
Do you like pears?
I mean pears not apples.
Doesn't matter what it is.
- So you like pears? - I eat everything.
[Pear]
It really looks like a pear.
[So you like this kind of humor.]
[Freshly picked pear.]
I'll get you an apple, now.
I haven't done this in a while.
This is an apple.
[Once his stomach turns red, then it's an apple?]
He's trying to make it red.
[Look, it became little red.]
[Puhahahaha]
- Should I take out the mukeunji? - Yes, take out the mukenji.
- Young Ji. - Yes.
Can you take out the skate? And make sure you get the meaty part.
Ah, yes.
Young Ji's parents' Skate and Jong Ok's kimchi stew.
Ryohei's Japanese style stir-fried udon noodles.
[The King Soon Jae's table is ready.]
- Jong Ok gave us acting lessons. - Is that right?
So we tried 'Romeo and Juliet' in old language.
Wow, it was really difficult.
- Sunny did a really good job. - Let me see how you do it.
Do you mind reading it with her?
[Romeo is Lee Soon Jae. Juliet is Sunny.]
But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
I wish you knew my heart.
She speaks. O, speak again, bright angel!
O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love.
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
You can't just rush through it.
I was too embarrassed.
You were rushing through it.
How can I slow down when I'm so embarrassed?
O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father... she's asking him to deny his name.
Because his father and her father are enemies.
Refuse thy name.
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love.
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
Lines have rhythms.
When you are practicing, read it like you're singing?
That's right.
The food is getting cold. Let's eat first and then continue.
Okay, wow! It looks delicious.
Bon appetit.
Sir, you and Jong Ok were in 'Men of the Bath House' together?
Yes, of course.
I think 'Men of the Bath House' is the only one.
That's true.
[They worked together in a drama 20 years ago.]
This is delicious.
It is.
['Thank you.']
['Ryohei is the best!']
Can I ask you a question?
I do have a complex about... my body.
Because I'm shorter than others.
I don't think... I look handsome either.
Did you also have a complex about your body, sir?
If I were at least 170 centimeters tall, it would've been good.
['Really?']
When I looked at people like Shin Sung Il, I thought, 'I would love to be that tall,'
I wasn't hoping for something like that from the beginning.
Because I started from bottom as a theatrical actor.
So it didn't matter to me.
[An honest opinion from the best actor in Korea.]
I only did my best with what I had.
Jong Ok... did you have a complex about something?
Why wouldn't I have one?
- What's your complex? - Mine is about my wide forehead.
I think you look pretty because of that.
No, because of it, I don't do historical dramas.
Because you have to do your hair like this.
It looks really strange when I do that.
And my face is very circular.
That's what used to define beauty.
But on TV screen, an egg-shaped face looks pretty.
But mine is circular and wide.
That's why I hated the shape of my face so much when I was younger.
I could call it a complex if I wanted to.
I hated my circular face, but people thought it was who I was.
There are people who do surgeries not to look circular here.
You know, if you think about it, there aren't many people who look like Jong Ok.
When you look at my face, what score would you give it?
Just your face?
- Just my face. - It's at least 70 points.
I was hoping for 80.
[You mean out of 200 points?]
You can't do that since there are people like Jang Dong Gun.
How many points for Joon Hyung looking only at his face.
- 80 points. - 80 points? How about Ryohei?
You get 90 points.
How about Kang Joon?
- Kang Joon gets 90 points. - 90 points? Jackson.
Oh, 90 points.
Me?
Don't keep asking questions.
['Ah... yes...']
They have transcended their age gap and they are like a family already.
Okay! Wow!
['The fundamentals of success are: courage, knowledge and generosity.']
[Of these the best is generosity.' - Lee Soon Jae]
[A tough goodbye.]
Don't feel inferior because of your appearance.
It's not easy to look like that either.
[Giving him encouragement.]
- You look much better than Sung Ji Ru. - Ah, really? Thank you.
Better than Woong In too.
Thank you for coming by.
- Do you guys sleep here? - Yes?
- Today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. - Ah, really?
['Roommate: Learn. Share. Enjoy.']
'Baam. I'm going there anyway.'
Don't I sound like him?
- The voice is a little different. - The voice is different?
- It should be lower in tone. - Lower?
- 'Baam.' - 'Baam.'
[Three favorite sayings by Joony.]
['Bbammm.']
['Know I'm saying?']
['Yo, what's up!']
[He's having so much fun impersonating Joon Hyung.]
'But people don't get it.'
'But it doesn't matter to me because I'm a g.o.d. member.'
- You need 'know I'm saying?' - 'Know I'm saying?'
'But it doesn't matter to me because when I was in America...'
['What if Joon Hyung hears you doing that?']
'Know what I'm saying? But.'
- That's good. - 'g.o.d! Tae Woo. Bbammm.'
'But I don't drink all the time.'
'But I have fun without drinking, know I'm saying?'
[Ta-da, the original is here.]
Oh...
- Are you practicing? - I need more practice.
- Se Ho, oh! - Oh, bbammm!
['How will Joon Hyung react?']
['An eye for an eye, an ear for an ear.']
['Is that how Se Ho acts?']
[Miming Se Ho as well.]
['Is that me?']
'Bbammmm.'
'Joon Hyung, I'll be back. See you later.'
[After Mr. Lee Soon Jae left, they share old stories.]
When I looked at Joon Hyung's graduation photos, I laughed my butt off.
- I brought them for you guys. - Really?
I brought... my graduation yearbook made in 1987.
Oh, he graduated in 1987.
These are the photos.
[How did Joon Hyung look back in high school?]
When you look here, who's that? Bbamm!
[This gentleman here.]
[Joon Hyung was a front cover model.]
Actually, the photos were taken in 1986.
The fall of 1986 is when I was 5 years old.
- I was 6 years old. - I was born that year.
- Is that you? - Oh! How did you know?
[Ta-da!]
I looked young back then.
Joon Hyung, that looks like... did you put on a makeup?
Michael. Michael.
[Michael doppelganger.]
[Oh!!]
Look, it was in high school...
It was when I was opening a milk carton.
- Oh my. - I was in grade 12.
[Another old photo of his?]
- Bbammm! - Oh!
He looks black.
- Did you go tanning? - He said he didn't.
[It's 100 percent natural.]
Let me show you how black I was. Yo, what's up?
[Wow!]
[Joon Hyung got tanned from surfing.]
This is even more... wow!
[Oh my God!]
- I only see his eyes. - This one is...
Any of your photos, Jong Ok?
Mine are all like... these.
Wow!
[Jong Ok 21 years ago.]
- This was in 1993. - Is this in America?
No, this was in Seoul.
Wow, pretty... Wow, pretty!
Wow, pretty. Seriously.
[Beautiful woman.]
I can feel it, wow.
- Jong Ok, are they Jae Deok and Kwang Ryul? - Yeah, they are.
1988?
- I was a host for 'The March of Youth.' - 'The March of Youth'?
I don't know if I should say this, but she's really sexy.
Seriously, awesome.
One, two, three. Awesome.
[Most beautiful woman in Korea.]
This is when we filmed a scene where Jeon Kwang Ryul and
I got married beside the Seine in Paris.
- You had that makeup style from before. - That's right, from before.
['What's this one?']
Whose photo is it?
- Who is it? - Is he Kang Joon?
- It's Ryohei! - Ah, really?
- The eyes are Ryohei's. - Let's see.
It's Ryohei. The eyelashes look just the same.
[How did Dong Wook look when he was young?]
Why were you always angry back then?
[He's been pissed off since he was young.]
- It's not joke. - I don't know. Don't know why I did that.
I looked just the way I do when I was young. What's that?
What's that?
[17-year-old Dong Wook.]
Were you just released from military duties?
Since I was in grade 8, when I went to restaurants with my parents
they always gave me a drinking glass too.
When I asked them why, they said, 'Aren't you on leave?'
What, what's that, Se Ho?
Hey, you’re so cute.
[Shy.]
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
- See you later.
[After sharing precious memories, 'Roommate' family goes to sleep.]
- Are you sleeping? Oh, goodnight. - Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Are you brushing your teeth again?
- Again? What do you mean again? - I noticed you were brushing all day.
- It's not good to do it so much. - I only did it for 5 minutes.
What do you mean 5 minutes?
I think you brushed for 20 minutes in the morning.
I think you're brushing for too long. I really think it's...
- 5 minutes. - I don't think 5 minutes.
Is it 5 minutes?
[5 minutes? No.]
20 minutes.
- 20 minutes. Seriously, look. - Too mean.
And now, let's watch the footage of Ryohei brushing his teeth.
[Ryohei brushes his teeth whenever and wherever.]
[In the living room.]
[In the bedroom.]
[At least longer than 20 minutes. Why, why, Ryohei?]
See? How long are you brushing your teeth?
He's amazing.
[Another person brushes his teeth.]
[What are you guys doing there?]
[You could say they are biological brothers.]
[Jackson has finished brushing.]
I...
I said I'll prepare something special, right?
What, why?
- You did face pack for me, right? - For the 10,000 won act of kindness thing?
For Jackson, a face pack.
[Kang Joon spent 10,000 won to do a face pack for Jackson.]
- Don't we also do the eyes? - Do you know what you're doing?
Of course, I've done this a lot.
Ta-da.
I bought scissors to cut your nose hair.
What? Why cut my nose hair all of a sudden?
No, it's because you're in a drama.
- My nose hair doesn't show. - No, you never know.
You never know.
[Third story: 'Cannot forgive any nose hair.']
[Almost forcing him to do it.]
Ah, what do you mean cutting my nose hair is a 10,000 won act of kindness?
[But Jackson won't give up.]
Look, look, look.
- Any nose hair? - You really have some here.
I'll show it to you.
Make the growling face you just made.
Stay still.
[A laugh caused a snort.]
It went into my eye!
- What went in? - A snot.
It's not a snot.
Do I really have nose hair?
Wait, stay still.
[Dr. Wang Scissors begins the operation.]
Why... do you keep attacking?
- Why flip my nostril? - I mean...
I'm worried a camera angle might catch your nose hair.
Okay.
- Do you trust me? - OK, I'll stay still.
Wait, if they filmed you at this angle, it would've been game over.
[Revelation of nose hairs might end his career?]
[Kang Joon trusts Dr. Wang Scissors.]
Look. See?
I'm... doing this for you.
You're so unbelievable.
You have nose hair.
It looks like a jungle.
[Nana heads to Room 5.]
[Using both hands.]
Why pluck it?
Can you see?
I'm getting teary.
I didn't pluck it. Sit up.
Why did you pluck it?
Who is it?
- Me. - Who?
- Who hasn't eaten? - Who...
Oh, Nana? Nana, come on in for a second.
Oh, Nana.
- Come in for a second. - Why?
- Nana, come over there for a moment. - How come?
Here, here, here, you have to sit here.
I know... you're always busy these days.
I know you're always, you know?
I'm worried for you, Nana.
When they do a close up on you, they might film your nose hair.
- I mean it. I'm serious. - What about it?
That's why we want to help you.
['Nose hair trimmer?']
No, I don't want to!
[He can't contain himself.]
- I shouldn't have come here. - I trimmed mine, Nana.
- Nana, just a little bit. - No, my nose hair doesn't show.
- I'll check it for you. - I also thought I didn't have any.
['I can't believe this.']
Nose hair... it grows longer if you cut it.
No way...
Hey, your nose hair will grow out to here.
[Se Ho isn't sleeping yet.]
Let's trim Se Ho's nose hair too
Yes, you shouldn't trim my nose hair just because.
Don't keep trying to trim a woman's nose hair.
I'm just worried for you.
[Perfect timing.]
Se Ho, seriously I have something to tell you.
- Se Ho. This is no joke. - Hmm?
I'm worried for you.
[Nana finds the situation so funny.]
They are a little strange.
- What do you want to say? - Oh?
What's this? How come everybody is up?
[Sunny is here too.]
- Se Ho, I will wait for you in your room. - How come?
I have something to tell you. I'm worried.
[Puzzled.]
['What are they doing?']
They are suspicious.
They saw me and said they wanted to trim my nose hair.
What are you talking about?
They were worried my nose hair will show up on-air.
What kind of nose hair does that?
I think they are waiting for me. Should I go?
I think they went upstairs.
- They went to my room? - They went to your room.
Let's go, Se Ho.
What is it?
Se Ho...
- Since you do a lot of events. - And?
I find it quite helpful.
- Me? - Yes.
We're worried about your nose hair.
- Nose hair. I don't have any. - Not true.
Let me check it.
You guys want to get slapped?
Talk, talk to me.
As a 10,000 won act of kindness, he bought a nose trimmer.
- Ah, oh, oh, oh. - This one.
- Let's see how you trim nose hair. - Never seen it before.
Me neither.
You only show your family when you get nose hair.
Oh...
- It's a jungle in there. - Ah, is it?
['So funny.']
[He finally gives in.]
[Worried about getting cut.]
Se Ho, you have so much hair. You haven't trimmed it in 20 years?
You can't say that. I almost let loose my hand on you.
[Final check.]
Looks good.
[Se Ho had a nice hair cut.]
It really is a 10,000 won act of kindness.
[One pair of scissors made a lot of people happy.]
Don't you have to sanitize the trimmer?
No, no need to sanitize when it's for family.
[Feels like we won't hear any snoring tonight.]
[While everyone's asleep.]
[Gook Ju is in the kitchen.]
[It's Gook Ju and Young Ji's turn to make breakfast.]
We're making breakfast by giving up sleep. Okay, let's have fun with it.
[But what are you guys doing there?]
To look like... you have a small face.
To have an egg-shaped face, you do this.
Doing this makes your face look smaller.
If you have a complex about the size of your face, you can do this.
You can easily manage it.
And that's all for today. Byong!
Untie it?
Hi, everyone. This is the lesson number two.
Last week, we talked about changing our face size.
- Are we filming two at once? - Yes, two at once.
Yes, how are you? I'm Comedian Lee Gook Ju.
I'm Young Ji.
If you're stuck to me, I look like a tree and you a bird.
- Okay, you go first. - OK.
Okay, ready and go.
I'm Young Ji.
[Oh!]
Still looks bigger.
Hi, I'm Comedian Lee Gook Ju.
Hi, I'm Young Ji.
In last week's episode, we talked about how to make
your face look egg-shaped, right?
And for this episode, there are men who have thick hair...
there are men who cannot grow beards.
For people like them, we'll show you how to grow a thick beard.
You have to tie your long hair together. Are you ready?
Success!
Loyalty. Loyalty. Loyalty.
Did it get into your nose?
Loyalty, loyalty!
[So burly.]
[Young Ji also grows a full beard.]
['I'm Young Ji, a member of Kara.']
That's good.
Okay, how are you, everyone?
What are you... What are you looking at? Slap!
[She falls today as well.]
Let's start cooking.
Okay, Assistant.
Take out the ingredients for kimbab.
We have steamed rice, should we make some?
Our eldest sister doesn't like microwaved rice.
We need to make some.
If you struggle to carry that, it looks like I made you do it.
Makes you look like Cinderella and me one of her stepsisters.
- Not true, Chef. - What are you trying to pull here?
- Hurry and stand straight and return it. - Okay.
- Joyously return it. - Okay.
It's not her fault.
Put it, put it back.
Let's cook in musical style today.
We need to develop the feel for rhythm.
['One more time!']
[Party time at dawn.]
Looks like you're rubbing yours hands.
[When will the kimbabs be made?]
You know, it's not for frying, right?
Okay.
Give it a try.
[Not for fried eggs, but for making kimbab.]
[Alas, she's frying them.]
['I knew it.']
There are a lot of moms watching this show right now.
They probably feel frustrated to see that.
They are probably very surprised.
She's frying eggs like she's making ham and eggs for breakfast.
Yet once you eat it, they look about the same in the tummy anyway.
Eggs are eggs in the end, anyway, you know?
['Let's enjoy cooking regardless.']
[Making kimbab.]
You put a row of egg and ham, radish, crab meat.
After adding cucumber, shall we roll it?
She's does a great job making kimbab as well.
Complete. How do you eat it? Hororok.
Here, have one.
[Keep on eating and on and on.]
[Eating so much.]
Feel so tired. My back is hurting.
Let's not talk too much.
[The sun is up already!]
I need to go to work.
[Now that the kimbabs are complete]
[she makes donjangguk to go along.]
Each line of kimbabs are wrapped and ready to serve.
Hororok Chef Gook Ju is taking a shower.
Young Ji is cleaning the kitchen.
[Clean.]
Look here.
[Taking a selfie before going to work.]
['Enjoy the breakfast.']
['Well done.']
- Good sleep. - Okay.
Go go.
- Power. - Okay.
See you.
- Have a good day. - See you later.
Go go!
While she didn't get too sleep much
Young Ji is so happy that the family will enjoy it.
[Good morning, 'Roommate.']
[Everyone's asleep.]
[Sunny's in deep sleep.]
Today the earliest one to get up is Jong Ok once again.
How does Jong Ok's morning go?
[Watering the plants.]
[Harvesting some crops.]
Wow, so fresh.
This one's so big.
[Roommate-style organic veggies.]
[Goes straight to the breakfast table.]
[Jong Ok replies to Young Ji's note.]
[Fourth story: 'Sky-blue balloons.']
[On October 25.]
One, two, three! Hi, we're g.o.d!
- Sweetie! - Yeah!
[It's a day that Joon Hyung will never forget.]
How does Joon Hyung feel about the concert?
I'll do with a sense of joy. Enjoying it with you.
Whether I do variety shows, being popular is...
I'm not sure how long it'll last but...
I would love to make you happy by being my true self.
[Their concert sold out in 20 minutes, selling 18,000 tickets.]
Ah, I'm so...
I'm...
I'm so thankful.
[October 25, The Seoul Olympic Stadium.]
[5 hours before the concert.]
The Seoul Olympic Stadium is completely surrounded by so many people.
[The sky is extra blue today.]
The stage is extremely huge.
The five members of g.o.d. are performing in the Seoul Olympic Stadium
for the first time in 14 years.
[3 hours before the concert.]
Joon Hyung is working hard rehearsing.
[Preparing hard for his precious fans.]
Joon Hyung rehearses without taking a break.
[They are loosey-goosey.]
[They seem really excited.]
Applause. Applause.
[Joon Hyung's checking the moving line.]
They seem really excited.
They working so hard to prepare.
[Today is Park Joon Hyung of g.o.d.]
[1 hour before the concert.]
[Kang Joon, Min Woo and Se Ho are here to support Joon Hyung.]
[They have something that's sky-blue.]
I got this one. I bought it too.
- Didn't you borrow it? - No, no.
Oh, they are here.
How are you?
- Joon Hyung! - Baam! Yo!
[Joon Hyung is extremely happy to see them.]
We're wearing something sky-blue.
Thousand faces, Yoon Kye Sang!
Perfect face, Ahn Danny!
Our hope, Park Joon Hyung!
Congratulations, congratulations. Flowers for you.
Joon Hyung hates flowers.
Because it's so unfortunate when you spend money on them
and they die so quickly.
- No, we'll take them home. - Ah, really? Thank you so much.
Hey, let's go in the room. We're on standby for 20 minutes.
Ah, really? Your costumes look so cool.
You can sit and we have snacks and drinks too.
We're all right. Have a sit, Joon Hyung.
But I... I cannot sit still right now.
There are 36,000 people waiting out there. To be honest...
- How long since the last one? - It's been two months.
Last time, we had 14,000 people. There are about 3 times more today.
I heard it's the biggest number so far with about 40,000 people.
[The gates are open.]
[The seats are being filled up and sky-blue lights up the place.]
[40,000 people in total.]
I feel so nervous! Hurry, hurry, massage, massage!
[A mini-song to help him relax.]
[Joon Hyung can't help but feel nervous.]
Oh, a professional...
How are you?
One, two, three, four. Angelic smile, Son Ho Young!
Angel smile, Son Ho Young!
- Ho Young, how are you? Congratulations. - Congratulations.
One, two, three! g.o.d. concerts, go go! 'Roommate' go go!
Thank you so much.
Go get them, Danny. I'll cheer hard for you.
Wow, so many people.
Wow... wow...
I feel excited and I feel nervous too.
Finally, the concert begins.
[Fireworks to signal the start.]
[A huge firework display to start the concert.]
[Se Ho's blown away.]
[A powerful opening.]
[A gigantic robot on the stage.]
[A huge robot made with the faces of g.o.d. members.]
I heard Joon Hyung made that robot.
[The stars of the night are here.]
[Everyone chants 'g.o.d.' in one voice.]
[It's been a while since he talked with his fans.]
As a member of g.o.d...
whether I'm 46 years old, 50 years old, or 70 years old
I'm your eternal sweetie! I'm Park Joon Hyung.
- Sweetie! - Yeah!
['So cool!']
[The dance from the past by Joon Hyung.]
[The guys are so excited.]
[The atmosphere is getting close to the climax.]
[Almost time to say goodbye.]
[The last chance to talk to the fans.]
Because today is so precious, I don't want to let it go.
[Took so much for this moment to happen again.]
So...
Ah, wait...
[Sadness stops him from talking...]
I'm so grateful to you.
Thank you, D! You're my strength and power!
I love you.
When they talked about doing a reunion concert
I suggested 2,000 seats.
Ah...
I'm... so grateful.
I still can't believe it.
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just... so happy about everything.
I would like the people who love me to stay healthy.
[We love you too, Joon Hyung. Love you and we'll remember you.]
[Skateboarding, baam!]
[The boys tries out skateboarding.]
[Roommate and the City.]
[Girls' Day.]
[Time for dessert.]
[Shopping.]
[Selfies.]
[Time to talk about boys.]
Here's Ok Taecyeon.
Roy Kim! Roy Kim! Roy Kim!
[Can't miss this! Eating on air. Drinking in the afternoon.]
[The god of trot, Park Hyung Bin.]
[We love you, Hyung Bin!]
[He teaches Ryohei how to sing trot.]
