A happier Thursday night when we're together for
- "Happy Together!" / - "Happy Together!"
Hello!
Today is the 400th show for our program!
We should thank our audience for joining us
and helping us reach a milestone.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
Our 400th show.
Don't they usually bring out a cake or something?
No.
- You can't spend ten dollars on us? / - No.
This is no time for that.
There must be a problem.
- No, there's no problem. / - No?
Don't be nervous.
We decided to celebrate it in a modest way.
- Okay. / - He's nervous.
It seems like today, I'm the only female host.
That's right.
Park Misun had to attend a charity event that she
signed up for months ago, so she couldn't be here.
Today we have the best teachers and students on set.
- It's Teachers and Students Special. / - Yes.
While we're on the topic, I also have a teacher
- that I'm really grateful for. / - Who would that be?
I prepared a small gift for my teacher.
- Is the person here? / - Yes.
- Okay, who is it? / - "Teacher's grace is"
- "like the sky" / - Who will he give it to?
- "And it only gets higher." / - Don't do that.
- Teacher! / - It's for Yu Jaeseok.
- Be truthful. / - But I'm younger than you.
- Teacher! / - He made a carnation for someone younger.
My family was able to get fed because of you.
But you're older. I'm two years younger than you!
Age doesn't matter in learning.
And age is not important in teachings, too.
- Okay, thank you. / - Jaeseok, I love you!
- "The teacher's heart" / - Thank you, Myungsoo.
Thank you so much. I hope that we can move on
and keep this relationship until we die.
I worry my student might die before me.
- I worry for you. / - Let me tell you something.
There's no order on who goes first.
Anyway, thank you.
Why don't we bring in today's teachers and students?
Let's see who the guests are.
Our first guest!
We can actually consider this person
- as Myungsoo's real teacher. / - That's right.
- This person makes me so nervous. / - Yes.
- I can't talk when I see this person. / - That's true.
In my opinion, although it's very subjective,
- he is the best singer in Korea. / - He's the best!
- A national singer... / - Who is it?
Lee Seungchul!
Teacher's grace is like the sky
- Seungchul! / - Hello, I'm Lee Seungchul.
- Hello. / - Hello.
Hello, I'm Lee Seungchul.
"Let's do it together."
Today, Lee Seungchul came to our studio.
Thank you for joining us today.
Following Seungchul, I recommended the next guest
who discovered Jo Insung, Lee Yowon, and Song Jihyo.
- A discoverer of major stars. / - Surely a teacher.
The god of acting coaches.
- The god of acting coaches. / - That's right.
It's Ryu Seungsoo.
Ryu Seungsoo.
Thank you for teacher's love
This way.
Ah, we'll repay
- "our teacher's grace." / - Please take a seat.
You're wearing the pink uniform.
It's a little tight.
Those are actually Misun's clothes.
Like we said, we have the god of music
and the god of acting coach.
- God of music and God of acting. / - Yes.
I wonder who the students might be.
Would you introduce your students?
My proud student...
He was the sliest member of "Super Star K."
Oh, really?
- I think I know who it is. / - Me too.
The charming rocker, Jung Joonyoung.
Jung Joonyoung!
(A cheeky student, Jung Joonyoung)
- Here's the sly rocker. / - "Teacher's grace"
"is like the sky..."
Look, he's already being sly.
- "Should I give it to him or not?" / - Already so sly.
Okay, let's place the flower...
On your teacher's chest.
- This is how he is. / - I know.
To your teacher.
You should earn money, not ask for whipping.
"You should earn money, not ask for whipping."
It's Jung Joonyoung.
Sly rocker Jung Joonyoung, please take a seat.
- He wrote "Darling" underneath! / - Really?
- It's the new song's title. / - "Darling."
He wrote the song's title on the flower!
The God of acting coach needs to move out of the way.
Jung Joonyoung...
Musicians are a bit violent, please understand.
Joonyoung said, "This is my seat," and he said "Okay."
So now Joonyoung is with us.
Next, Seungsoo will introduce his student.
To be honest, I didn't expect much
- from this person back then. / - Really?
When I look back at it, I feel bad.
I met up with this person a few times recently
and saw a lot of new attractive sides.
I think we can expect her to have a second heyday.
- It sounds good. Who is it? / - Who is it?
If you look at it, I...
Just introduce the guest already.
That's enough.
Didn't you see how Seungchul did his?
- That's too long. / - Seriously.
Who is it?
- Like a pearl found in... / - Just tell us.
- The name. / - Your student's name.
Spit it out.
We just need the name.
- Park Hanbyul. / - Park Hanbyul.
(It wasn't just Bae Yongjun and Choi Jiwoo)
(That starred in "Winter Sonata").
(In every masterpiece)
(Seungsoo, the master of acting coach was there)
(The student who received his guidance)
(Debuted in "Wishing Stairs")
(And became a female lead in TV dramas)
(A sweet student, Park Hanbyul)
- Finally we get to see her. / - She's coming out now.
Teacher's grace is like the sky
Did you see how she went directly to put on the flower?
Look at that.
Park Hanbyul.
You're pushed over again?
- But she's your student. / - Wait...
- You've mixed up the seats. / - Really?
Yes, Park Hanbyul should sit here.
Sorry, I didn't know.
- The teacher sits on this side. / - Sorry about that.
This is not fair!
- Because / - Is this fair?
we have to seat everyone by popularity.
I'm sorry, you're a star too.
It's in the order of rising stars.
Please, sit down.
Seungchul already mentioned it earlier,
but he really is a teacher on "Super Star K."
A lot of new stars were made through the program.
What other contestants did you consider your students?
The Powerful Sound Maker, Huh Gak.
- Huh Gak. / - The Powerful Sound Maker.
There is Even Bigger, Busker Busker.
Busker Busker.
- Roy Kim. / - Of course, Roy Kim.
Is there a reason why you chose
Joonyoung over so many?
Firstly, I worry about him the most.
- About Joonyoung? / - Yes.
He's having a rough time and I want to guide him.
Everyone else is doing well,
but I worry about Joonyoung.
You know there's always that one kid
- that you're always concerned about. / - That's true.
- Yes, there are younger friends like that. / - Yes.
He's like that to me.
Do you understand Seungchul's concerns?
- I heard this is the Teachers ... / - Be quiet.
What are you trying to do?
He's tone doesn't sound so happy, right?
He's like that.
I thought Moon Chaewon would come out today.
- As a teacher? / - Yes.
Why? Why?
She's my acting instructor,
so I planned to talk about the story about her.
Actually, it's been three years since we last met.
- Really? / - Oh, you haven't met each other?
Isn't it rude to gesture like that to your teacher?
It's very out of the blue to meet up after three years.
So you thought Chaewon would be on the show today.
Yes, because she's my real teacher.
She really helped with my acting.
(My real teacher)
Seungchul!
Even I think having Chaewon today would be better.
He's a generous guy.
How did Chaewon teach you acting?
We had a chance to shoot a film together.
I don't know much about acting so she gave me tips.
What did she teach you?
When she talks, she grabs the person's arm.
Can I do it on this side?
What are you doing?
I apologize on behalf of him.
- Then what? / - She always has an arm at hand.
"Joonyoung, when you say this,"
"you should do it like this and that."
Are you saying she taught you well
or that you liked her touching you?
I'd have to say it helped for me to pay attention.
Really?
How does Seungchul teach?
This is how I teach, like this.
- Adam's apple? / - I say, work with your Adam's apple.
We talked about actress Moon Chaewon.
Is it your first time seeing actress Park Hanbyul?
I saw him at the hair salon.
- Oh, at the salon. / - I see.
I found out where she usually goes
- and changed salons. / - Really?
- Because of Hanbyul? / - I'm kidding.
- It didn't seem like a joke. / - I apologize for him.
Do you think we're fools?
That's rude.
It's the sly rocker.
- He's so sly. / - He's funny.
Anyway, Hanbyul said earlier
that Seungsoo is her teacher.
Seungsoo is surely a discoverer of new stars.
- First he found Jo Insung. / - Jo Insung.
Park Hanbyul, Song Jihyo,
- Kim Jiseok... / - Kim Jiseok.
That's enough.
When I debuted through the film "Wishing Stairs",
he was my acting coach.
When I first got the call to come on the show, I was
- hesitant because I didn't know what to say. / - Why?
It's a story from too long ago...
Okay, Hanbyul. We get you.
You and I shouldn't have come on the show today.
- Hanbyul. / - Park Hanbyul.
That was the funniest thing today.
Then I guess we should take off the flowers.
It looks more like a chrysanthemum than a carnation.
Seungsoo, Hanbyul may have an old memory
but what kind of a student was Hanbyul to you?
My Hanbyul was...
"My Hanbyul"?
Is it all right for you to call her that?
Please, mind your manners.
"My Hanbyul" sounds so awkward.
She barely remembers you.
You should be more polite in addressing her.
- Miss Hanbyul. / - They don't really know each other.
How long has it been since you last met?
What is it, seven or eight years?
You said you've met after three years, right?
We ran into each other through another TV show.
That was after 13 years since the movie.
- If so, you should call her Miss Hanbyul. / - So long.
You should definitely call her Miss Hanbyul.
Here I was thinking that he really
- took care of her all this time. / - Me too.
At least contact each other now and then to say hi.
- Do you know his phone number? / - No, I don't.
Why did you guys call me on the show?
Anyway, tell us what kind of student she was.
- Do you remember? / - Yes.
I didn't expect much.
Are you sulky?
He's sulky!
I only said so because Hanbyul said it's been a while.
- "I didn't expect much." / - You're small-minded.
Don't be like that.
Actually, I don't reveal those who I really helped.
- What? / - You already did.
- Jo Insung, Song Jihyo. / - Kim Jiseok.
I never said so myself.
- They're the ones who said it? / - Right.
Isn't it the same case for you, Miss Hanbyul?
"Miss Park Hanbyul."
He's shaking.
It's true, right?
A minute ago you said, "My Hanbyul."
My Hanbyul...
Isn't it the same case for you Miss Hanbyul?
Can I have a five-minute break?
All right, have a five-minute break.
Joonyoung, there were other judges in the show.
Other than Seungchul there's Yoon Jongshin too.
Was there a judge you particularly liked?
What I found surprising
was that there was a mission
to sing one of the judges' songs.
You'd think the contestant would choose,
but the staff contacted me
and told me Seungchul wanted me to sing one of his.
- He wanted you to sing his. / - That's what they said.
- Then what? / - I was planning on Yoon Mirae's song.
- And at that time... / - He's a little...
- He can sing like a woman. / - I see that.
You must be boiling inside.
- You see what I mean? / - Yes, yes.
It's hard to keep my hand down. I want to slap him.
I can guarantee
Myungsoo is going to slap him before the shoot is over.
- That's my brother. / - That's my brother!
- Anyway... / - Sit up straight!
- Anyway, then what? / - Go on.
Anyway, I got coaching.
He came to rehearsals too. He usually doesn't.
He must have cared a lot for you.
- The song was "Did You Forget?" / - "Did You Forget?"
He recommended it to me
and guided me through pronunciations and points.
Like lift your hand here, sit there...
- So I did as I was told. / - But?
But I got 85 points and got eliminated.
Seungchul, why did you fail him? He did as you asked.
The reason why I picked Joonyoung
was because he was getting a lot of bad remarks,
- especially from me at that time. / - From you.
So to see it the other way, I took him under my wing.
- Do you mean Joonyoung? / - Yes.
That's why I taught him my song.
He did really well,
and a lot of people commented
that Joonyoung changed and improved a lot.
But I was a judge...
Personally, I wanted to give him a 95.
What I found surprising was
that it's possible to change by guidance
the atmosphere one can create.
And that felt really good.
I was surprised and proud of him.
I think for Joonyoung, that 85 points...
You probably gave your all for that performance.
Weren't you disappointed?
I sure was. There was only a week to go
and with luck, I would've won 500 thousand dollars.
Were you betting your life on it?
If only he had waited a week!
I like how he's not trying to sugarcoat things.
- 500 thousand is a lot of money. / - I agree.
- That was sad. / - That must have been so upsetting.
Was he defiant when you tried to teach him?
No, not at all.
Really?
But he was a little out of the ordinary.
Kind of like a football.
- You don't know where he'll bounce next. / - Right.
Joonyoung was really popular.
His marks were always high because of his fans.
He had a lot of fans.
Whenever we received ARS votes, he won.
However, he also started to gain hecklers.
People started to pick on him for nothing.
On the other hand...
What did you think, Joonyoung?
Like Seungchul said...
There's something interesting about Seungchul.
- He is really blunt. / - He's blunt.
He'd say "this was bad, that wasn't good," and so on.
Then he gives a high mark.
- That's unexpected! / - Why?
When he says, "that was great," the marks are low.
It's because no matter what I say, they won't change.
Since they have no room for improvement.
If I think they have potential
and I can see what areas they need to work on,
I tell them.
But if I don't see anything...
You're thinking, this person's not going to make it.
So you just give them a positive review.
Seungchul, you have a daughter, right?
She's a big fan of Joonyoung.
That's right.
- Yes, my daughter in university. / - Is she still?
No, not anymore.
Seungchul is a bit sly too.
- Didn't Joonyoung learn from him? / - Give and take.
My eldest daughter was a huge fan of him.
But that was a time when Joonyoung
- had the most fans. / - I see.
He had a bigger following than Roy Kim.
So I called him "son-in-law."
After every seasons of "Super Star K"
I invite the top ten to my place for dinner.
So that time my daughter took photos with him.
If you become his son-in-law, that house is yours!
- What are you talking about? / - I mean...
Who says the house is his if he becomes the son-in-law?
Seungchul is getting old.
What are you talking about?
I'll cancel what I said.
- "Cancel." / - "Cancel."
- I'd love to visit his house. / - It is amazing.
There was a concert in Busan.
There were Lee Seungchul's tour concert in Busan
and the "Super Star K" team concert.
His daughter came to our concert instead of his.
It was on the same day.
So we took a selfie
and sent it to his phone.
- Really? / - To make fun of him.
- So there was a 13-year break for you two? / - Yes.
We were on the show "Law Of The Jungle"
which was shot about a month ago.
What was Seungsoo like there?
Do you remember how he said he'd lead and shape me?
He definitely made me.
He put a stocking on my face.
Right, I saw.
Okay.
One, two, three, put it on now! Okay.
- Wait. / - Okay.
I will count ten seconds.
Hello, I'm Park Hanbyul.
I'm Park Hanbyul.
Do you have any projects lined up?
- No. / - No?
So when you said you'd make her,
did you mean through a stocking, not acting?
I didn't think she'd do it.
But she did. Twice.
That's when I knew her golden days would come again.
The stocking...
I understand what you mean,
but why did you think of that
while putting on a stocking on her face?
- It had a deep meaning. / - Like what?
Like one should sing comfortably in their own voice,
acting is also about letting go.
We often say "acting coaches" and "acting instructors"
but I don't like the term "acting instruction."
Nor do I like the terms "teacher" and "student."
I'm more like a helper.
- A helper? / - Yes, that's closer to what I am.
To say that I'm a teacher
- makes me feel embarrassed. / - Is that so?
Same with me, I think it puts on a lot of pressure.
- Yes, for sure. / - That's right.
Normally in situations like this the students go,
"No teacher, that's not true," but both are like...
He treats me like a brother anyway.
That's what I mean!
- Your teaching is unique. / - Unique methods.
You made Kim Jiseok have a chicken fight in Gangnam,
and Jo Donghyuk crossed a road doing a handstand.
He also made him...
- undress one time? / - Right.
It's my special method.
When I meet these guys, I know exactly
why they cannot do what they want and what they need.
What did Donghyuk need that you made him undress?
After teaching a few people,
I realized there's a group that's really hard to teach.
- What is it? / - Models.
Oh, a model.
Why? Because they're always so cool.
Their life itself is very cool.
Just like him.
- He used to be a model. / - Yes.
Whenever they act, they want to look cool.
They just can't let it go.
So they have trouble really letting out their emotions
in front of a lot of people.
They feel as if they're staring at a wall.
So I said, "There's no wall."
"Pretend that you're naked in front of everyone."
"Just get naked."
So that's why you told him to undress.
- Really? / - Yes.
- And then? / - "Act without any clothes on," I said.
So he did.
That's how Jo Donghyuk became who he is today.
You also told Jo Insung to stop trying to be cool.
It was the first shoot and he was anxious.
I said, "Forget actor Jo Insung or the star Jo Insung."
"Just let it all go and be naked."
Are they nude models? Why do you keep undressing them?
Actors have to let everything go.
I think that sounds right.
A real acting can only come out
when one has fully let themselves go.
Then why are you having a hard time letting go?
Your acting is very calculated.
I still want to get more popular.
I'm a greedy person.
- It's because I'm greedy. / - "I'm a greedy person!"
What I'm really curious about is, how did Hanbyul
come to get guidance from Seungsoo?
Was it word of mouth?
No, our film company introduced us.
A film company?
Actually, without me, Hanbyul wouldn't be here.
Like how Seungchul selected Joonyoung for the show,
the producer, director and I
did the auditions for the casts
of the "Wishing Stairs"
I was the one that picked Hanbyul.
- How did you come to have such a big role? / - Right.
Did you know about this?
That Seungsoo selected you?
- Now I know. / - So you didn't know before.
I didn't know he was one of judges.
But your face says, so what?
So what? Thanks, but what?
So Hanbyul, when you first met Seungsoo,
did you have full trust in him?
We practiced at his place.
- At his place? / - His place.
Because the school I was running went bankrupt.
- At his place. / - Yes.
And?
During classes, we didn't look at the script
- or anything like that. / - Then what did you do?
We always ate, ordered food...
Seungsoo, did you own a restaurant?
It was such a long time ago, he might have forgotten.
Well, she went to school during the day
and we did our lessons in the evening,
but she always came on an empty stomach
and complained that she was hungry.
So after we ordered in, it got late
so she went home.
- After she was done eating. / - Yes.
There's a funny story from that time.
Song Jihyo also might not have been on TV
- if it wasn't for what happened back then. / - Really?
Jihyo had one rival for the final decision.
- She had a rival? / - It was Nam Sangmi.
She was a strong contender then.
Sangmi was really popular.
- She was famous for her pretty looks. / - Yes.
When we were torn between Jihyo and Sangmi,
the director and I decided on Jihyo.
Why?
Because Sangmi was already famous and pretty
but Jihyo had more
unique characteristics and freshness to her.
Because we wanted someone new, we chose Jihyo.
(The two fresh faces discovered by Seungsoo)
(Became stars of the "Whispering Corridors" series)
(From "Wishing Stairs", 2003)
Don't you know how much I like you?
(The possessed acting surprised viewers)
Well, the series was full of screaming
and fear which involved huge expression.
You must have taught quite an acting.
Especially acting in horror.
Actors should do that on the set.
What?
It's not acting if you're doing it on the set.
He's so funny.
Acting is something you create out of nothing.
If I was the mother of the student, I'd be upset.
"Don't be upset."
You might be called a fraud now.
I don't know if it was Seungsoo or the director
that told me this, but I remember one thing.
- It's probably me. / - Really?
If there were lines,
he told me not to practice them.
If I did it too many times,
- it might become different on site. / - That's true.
Also, we don't know how the other actor will react.
If you practice, true feelings won't come out
So don't practice too much and do it on the set.
So, do you still don't practice?
Yes, since I heard that from my debut work,
I still don't look at my script like others.
Wow...
That's...
This makes a new mark to the methods of acting.
"Do not practice."
Many people around me have been saying that
- They say Hanbyul's acting / - It's reached its peak.
- has become even better. / - Yes, the drama.
During the drama "One Well-Raised Daughter", I think
- I was able to dive right into the role. / - Right.
Even when I was monitoring myself,
- I'd cry again watching me cry. / - Really?
- That's how it was. / - Really?
I'm not saying it was because I did well,
but because I really became that character,
- I felt more emotional. / - That's not easy to do.
Do people often cry looking at their acting?
I guess I remembered that feeling from that moment.
Towards the end of the series,
I felt like my life was coming to an end.
The series lingered with me for a while.
It lasted quite some time.
Probably a few months.
From that role.
If you think it's unfair, then just say so!
Fine. It's not fair. It's not fair!
When you become the character and feel the emotions...
We say you were possessed, so to speak.
If an actor or actress takes ten projects,
there's only one or two that get to that stage.
You can say that the projects they get into
are ones best fitting that actor.
It's the same for everything, even reality shows
and being a comedian.
When you're climbing a mountain, there are many routes
but there's only one summit.
They end up connecting.
So one should sing comfortably when singing
and act comfortably when acting.
Once comedians let go the cling to make people laugh
is when they'll really make people laugh.
After I study my script,
memorize it and practice it inside out,
I'll think that I'm ready.
So I close my script and go to bed.
But once I get on the set next day, I'm in a panic.
Why? Because it's nothing like what I imagined.
Film sets can always change.
How did you imagine "Happy Together" for today?
It's nothing like I expected.
Joonyoung, since you also act,
do you want to ask Seungsoo anything?
Do you want to learn from him?
- He's really good. / - Anything at all?
Did you write a book too?
Yes, I did.
What's the title of your book?
"Don't Become An Actor Like Me."
So pretentious!
- What a hypocrite. / - I love it.
- "Don't Become An Actor Like Me." / - I love it.
- "Don't Become An Actor Like Me." /- Do you have it?
Another actor who also wrote is Song Gangho, his rival.
On a bigger level, DiCaprio.
I heard you also have a rival in advertisement?
- There's a program we did together. / - Yes, yes.
Afterwards, I received a lot of requests
- for advertisements? / - for advertisements.
I hear that I'm one of the finalists.
It was between Ryu Seungryong and me.
I didn't get anything.
- They all went to him. / - Always at the finals.
All of them.
I always get so close, but it never works out.
- In what? / - Everything.
The advertisements as well.
Anything that I'm looking forward to,
get really close to the finish line
but most of the time it doesn't work out.
So someone told me
- that I should change my name. / - What?
They told me my name seems good but not quite.
- My name itself. / - Seungsoo.
So I paid 500 dollars for a new name to be made.
- To what? / - Because nothing was working out.
Ryu Myeong.
That sounds like "famous."
Ryu Myeong.
So that you'll become famous?
I don't know, just Ryu Myeong.
What a waste of money.
- They told me to record it / - So funny!
and put it in my closet and listen to it every day.
They said I had to be called by the name.
So you have your name mentioned on your recorder
and who's calling you Ryu Myeong from the closet?
So someone has to call Myeong! Ryu Myeong! Constantly.
Fine. So on "Happy Together," we call him Ryu Myeong.
Lee Seungchul is not just a teacher to Joonyoung
- but also to Myungsoo. / - Yes, of course.
The reason why Myungsoo started in this industry
is because he imitated Seungchul
by singing his song.
It's a memory I want to forget,
but I used to mimic Seungchul.
Didn't you use to come out as Seungchul's lookalike?
I didn't do it a lot.
- Just on one specific TV show. / - Really?
That's misunderstanding. I didn't do much.
First of all, let's take a look at a clip.
- What are you doing? / - The VCR is ready.
- Good, good! / - I can't wait.
How did you find that?
No!
It is "I'm the Real Star."
No!
Me? I'll just do it.
I hate people like that.
I can't stand it!
Show us.
I can't... Why did I put that on?
(Park Myungsoo, Lee Seungchul Lookalike)
How... how did you find this, really?
I don't know what good-bye means.
That's so same.
I sound the same as Seungchul!
Wow, it's been a while since I last saw that.
After he did that, he pretty much lived off of
the mimicry, but he acted like it was a short gig.
Did it look that way?
He stopped showing up to my concerts.
He doesn't even come?
He doesn't want to get bothered.
- Really? / - Yes.
Back then, when you saw him mimicking you,
how did you feel?
- I was actually very happy. / - Really?
I thought he was spreading my image around.
It was a time when I was banned from broadcast
so I felt lucky Myungsoo was doing such a skit
and that I wasn't forgotten.
So you were taking a short break.
- A long one. Five years. / - For self-reflection.
Myungsoo used to copy Seungchul before
but I heard Seungchul is copying Myungsoo now.
People keep asking me to do it.
Like his "Darn it."
They keep asking me.
Also "Hey, you!" as well.
I think the tables have turned.
When he would come near me, I'd be scared.
He'd come up to me and say,
"Hey, did you do it like this?"
and mimic me.
And he sang my song.
"Prince of the Sea."
Time sure has passed.
You know, I used to be like a servant.
A servant?
I couldn't even look up to him.
- Like how we couldn't look at a king. / - Like a king!
A person like that came up to me and sang my song!
He copied me and danced my moves.
Does he copy this too?
- You do everything, right? / - Even the Jjojjo dance.
Do you really do the Jjojjo dance?
Do you mean the "Prince of the Sea"?
The "Prince of the Sea."
He did that!
- Why don't the two of you dance together? / - Yes.
Are you going to do it, Seungchul?
- One, two, three, four. / - One, two, three, four.
jjojjo.
- Wow, seriously. / - Really.
I often do the dance in my concerts for fun.
For you, Myungsoo...
- It was a huge deal for me. / - That's right.
It tells me how hard I've worked
and how far I've come.
It's only because I've succeeded,
- I'm beside someone like him. / - So he's not thankful
but it's more like "I've made it!"
I really have talent
- and I did well. / - So you're the amazing one?
That's why Seungchul and I can become brothers.
If we are talking about Myungsoo's success,
the fact that he hangs out at my place is an indicator.
- Of course. / - Yes.
That's a big deal.
Myungsoo's daughter and my daughter
- are best friends. / - So I've heard.
They go to different schools, but even now
they meet up once or twice a month.
When Minseo goes to Seungchul's place,
- she doesn't want to come back home. / - Why?
Because my house is shady compared to his.
She really likes their place.
She really likes the place and doesn't want to leave.
She prefers to live with Seungchul's family.
I told her we can't do that.
It's true. I'm astonished by how much has changed.
It seems like Seungchul hosts a lot of gatherings.
Minseo first met Won in the kindergarten
and they continue to hold the relationship.
Since Seungchul is the eldest in the group,
he's often invited the parents to his place
- for a meal. / - He seems to cook too.
What's interesting is that our group has 12 members.
We got together because of our first born daughters.
So I named our group.
- What did you name it? / - "Girls' Generation."
- All daughters? / - Just daughters.
That's not easy to come by.
And I'm the eldest of the parents in the group.
So you leads the gatherings.
Actually, I'm closer with Minseo's mom than Myungsoo.
Oh, really?
Yes, we often turn it.
Turn what?
We turn the glasses of drinks.
I thought he was referring to dancing.
Did I say something wrong?
Watch your mouth, you punk!
Why would they dance?
Don't you understand as a DJ?
It doesn't matter if you're my teacher... Dance?
Your wife is a great dancer.
She's not. She just looks like it.
No, I saw her. She's really good.
Don't even bring that up.
Seungsoo, you and I have a history too, don't we?
It's been quite some time too.
- Maybe around the time you met Hanbyul. / - Really?
Yes, it was when he still had the acting school.
- Did you own an acting school? / - Right?
So did Jaeseok go to that school?
He came to my school
- but he didn't take any lessons. / - Right.
They used the space to practice.
- I had a performance team made of comedians. / - Oh.
He gave us a good deal.
Do you remember who else was there?
Any notable comedians in Korea at that time
- were all there. / - Including Lee Hwijae,
Jung Junha, Ji Sangryul, Song Eunyi, Kim Hanseok...
Did you know Jaeseok would become so huge?
- Back then... / - Be honest.
Honestly, I didn't think he'd do so well.
I thought he'd do the worst
- out of that group. / - Why?
Why did you think so? There must be a reason.
Well, people like Lee Hwijae
had a handsome face
or they had a funny characteristic,
but Jaeseok has neither.
- He's not that funny. / - He's not very funny.
At first when we went to the school,
he just said hi and wasn't that interested
although we were all celebrities.
Then one day when I was at the school,
- I heard a zip sound. / - What was it?
You know those disposable cameras?
We have smartphones now, but that's what we used then.
So I looked towards the sound, and behind a window...
He was taking photos.
He wanted to hang pictures in the school.
- For good exposure. / - To post on the walls.
- You can hear the wheel turn. / - That's right.
It was really cool to see real celebrities.
He was behind a window.
Then why did you act so nonchalant about them?
Why didn't you ask for a picture?
Because I had my pride as an actor.
I brought some of those pictures.
Let's see if this is funnier than Myungsoo.
Look at Jung Junha in the back.
Why did you color your hair like that?
That was really trendy then.
Popularity makes a person.
You didn't think he'd do so well
but as he got more famous over time,
how did you feel?
So I passed by him time to time at TV stations
and could probably have gone up and said hi,
but I just couldn't.
Why not?
Because he's a star.
That's honest.
Out of all we talked about, that really sticks.
"Because he's a star."
Because he's a star.
It's very unmanly.
He didn't want to admit it but it accidentally slipped.
"Because he's a star."
I heard Hanbyul's goal
is to live until she's 120 years old.
- Is that so? / - Yes I want to live long.
It used to be 120, but now I've changed to 150.
150 years?
Nowadays, many live past the 100 year mark
so by the time I become a senior, 120 will be average.
Since I want to live longer than the average, so 150...
Is there something you want to do by living long?
I'm just curious about the world.
- The future? / - Yes.
Ten years ago, we couldn't fathom using smartphones
but now it's so common.
So what we imagine now, for example
a car that has wings...
Right now it's only imaginary,
but in 20 years, it could be a reality.
What do you think will happen when you're 150?
I think we will go to space like we travel to the USA.
- Space traveling. / - Like we're going to the USA.
Are you doing anything special to live until 150?
Because I want to live healthy and happy until 150...
For example, do you clap 200 times a day?
There's that clapping guru.
Shinyoung always comes out while massaging here.
- Right, that's good for your health. / - I know.
- I massage it 100 times. / - Right, the lymph nodes.
- You hit it 150 times, right? / - It's good for you.
What else do you do?
I don't eat any fast foods or snacks.
What about alcohol?
I don't really like to drink
but I like getting drunk.
That means you like to drink.
You don't make sense.
You know some people drink while eating.
People that really like to drink say,
"I wish I had some soju", when they eat something good.
But when I eat great food,
I don't understand why people would think of drinks.
I find good food to have drinks with.
Most people who like to drink say that,
so I don't think I like to drink...
But drink only to get drunk?
I like the feeling of getting drunk.
- When you are tipsy. / - Yes.
Who do you usually drink with?
The comedian who plays barbarian in KBS' "Gag Concert."
- Kim Jiho. / - Really?
Jiho and Jung Myeonghun.
How are you close with the comedians?
We're really close.
There's a group of friends with them in it.
Really?
You have a story to tell about Jiho?
Jiho hardly drank before.
He didn't know what the world looked like being drunk.
People that don't drink don't know.
He wasn't drinking so we forced it on him.
After two years of forcing him,
he's become an expert drinker.
You're his teacher.
Now he's the one asking to go for drinks.
(Drinking teacher, we hope you live until 150!)
I'm not trying to make an excuse or anything, but
it's hard if I don't drink the night before.
It's hard if you don't drink?
Isn't it usually the opposite?
But I can sing better
the day after I drink,
so I drink the night before the performance.
He's still young.
I think I'm in my prime.
How old are you?
27.
Now?
Then I understand what you're saying.
I like getting drunk, too.
Really?
- You two are quite similar. / - They are similar.
You have a white hair on your side?
I used to have a long white hair here.
And?
During an interview one day, I accidentally
- plucked it while showing off. / - The white hair.
Everyone, I have a white hair growing on me.
Jung Joonyoung is showing his belly.
You can really see the white hair.
I see it.
But...
What? Where did it go?
The white hair was plucked.
No, that can't be. This guy is a strong one.
The only white hair on your belly is now gone.
"KBS Entertainment Weekly."
Since then, things kind of started to fall apart.
You're Samson.
Samson.
It was a funny topic when hanging out with friends.
- Do you mean the hair? / - I'd say, "Look at this!"
Joonyoung, what's your goal?
- In my life? / - Yes.
- Hanbyul's goal is to live long. / - To live long.
Living until 150 is her goal.
I want to buy a house in Las Vegas.
That's random.
Are you talking about a real estate investment?
No, I just want to buy a house...
Is there a reason why it should be in Las Vegas?
The houses in Las Vegas
- look really nice. / - Yes, they are great.
They looked really nice, so
I wondered if people like Leonardo DiCaprio live there.
So I asked someone,
"How much do I need to buy that kind of house?"
The place had six rooms, a garage
and a pool and it was 700 grand.
Really?
The Eun apartment in Gangnam costs about the same.
You know a lot about real estate, right?
He knows the market prices.
- Are you talking about Eun apartment? / - As a lease.
I was looking around because I needed to move.
When do you think you can make that a reality?
Well, I have to wait till "2 Days and 1 Night" ends.
Because we shoot the show every two weeks...
Go out and wash your face or something.
Open your eyes big.
Look here. Are you okay?
Can you see this?
Also Joonyoung had a new album come out
from the Jung Joonyoung band.
Is there a reason why you formed a band?
I was originally in a band.
During "Super Star K", they couldn't be on the show
because they're foreigners on tourist visas.
So after "Super Star K", I contacted them.
One was in Britain and one was in the USA,
each back in their own country.
How did you organize your current band?
Our producer has great networks,
so I searched a lot and also met many people.
Usually you get back together...
That's an unexpected answer.
It's very refreshing.
- He doesn't lie. / - He's an honest man.
Back in the day, we would change the wording.
- We would've. / - How would you have done it then?
Something along the lines of "Let's do it together"?
We would have sugarcoated it.
Something like, "I saw an amazing band one day
and liked it so much I scouted them."
- Right, that sounds familiar. / - Like that.
"Why didn't your band get back together?"
"They had dreams of their own."
- Normally that's the right answer. / - That's the one.
What Seungchul said is the right answer.
- "We have different ideals." / - Right.
- "Different ideals!" / - That's what most would say.
Since you have a new album and all,
- could you sing a bit for us? / - "OMG."
- Would that be all right? / - Yes.
Oh, he even got up.
He's tall.
I need a guitar.
That's good. I saw it and it was cool.
Should I mimic a song while I'm at it?
- Sure, do one. / - Mimicry.
- Lee Seungchul. / - Lee Seungchul.
I'll say it confidently to you
And tell you
He's making fun of me, right?
Do it. Fight.
It's starting.
Do whatever you like to do
As my foot reaches down, it's unbelievable
My friends say Oh My God for my crazy personality
As my foot reaches down
Whoa
That's a little too much.
Joonyoung.
Say unbelievable
Sir, open your eyes.
- That's your student. / - Sir!
Sir, that's your student.
Sir?
Unbelievable
Ryu Seungsoo...
- Ryu Seungsoo... / - Seungsoo...
Don't look at it like it's someone else's fire.
- Show some support. / - He is something else.
Hanbyul, what did you think of Joonyoung's song?
- It's good. I like songs like this. / - You liked it.
Would you be able to head bang with him?
Hanbyul.
- Please. / - Please do it.
- If you like the song. / - If you like the song.
If you like the song, you should head bang.
One, two, three, four.
She's good!
Hanbyul, go up!
Go up, all right.
That was good.
That's what I'm talking about.
You two blend well.
- You guys do well together. / - Seriously.
Why are you looking at Hanbyul that way?
She's having her second golden era.
I'm thinking, "Is she going to be okay?"
Seungsoo, can't you dance to this music too?
How about it, Seungsoo?
I don't like loud things.
So...
What if you're given a role?
You said so yourself, let it all go.
That's what you said! Let it go.
I saw you so many times at night clubs.
Our age group dances like this.
No, this is not acceptable.
Then do this, like this.
How about break dancing? Seungsoo is good at it.
- Really? / - Can you break dance to the music?
Stop that now!
Come on, with rock music.
- Oh, this is good! / - Is this okay?
- Good, good! / - Look at his hip.
Good, good.
- This is the highlight. / - The climax!
Let's go, let's go!
- What's wrong? / - Why did you sit on your student?
Why did he sit on her lap?
What happened to him?
Why is he acting so vulnerable?
Is he playing a female lead in a sad love story?
What are you doing, Seungsoo?
Get up, you're drunk.
Get home safe, teacher.
Go home.
Did you call a taxi?
Get up.
Hanbyul is disappointed in you.
You're her teacher, what are you doing?
He's a teacher but since he's dizzy he rests like...
I've never seen anyone faint with
- a carnation on. / - I know.
Did you see Hanbyul?
Ah!
He's got an interesting way of head banging.
After people turn 40, head banging turns to this.
You know what I mean.
With fingers out like this, they say "Wow!"
Here we go again!
We introduced Seungchul today as a teacher,
but it's his 30th anniversary in the music industry.
It's Mr. Lee Seungchul! 30 years!
The new album is titled, "Time Goes By Fast."
It's my 30th anniversary album.
- "Time Goes By Fast." / - "Time Goes By Fast."
Like you said, 30 years went by really fast, right?
You are totally right.
As for revealing the title song,
I was thinking of releasing it at midnight.
Then someone said, "No, you should release it at noon."
That's when the kids are at school.
The moms are finally able to take a break at lunch,
so that's when I should release it.
- That makes sense. / - That's true.
- It makes sense. / - Really.
So I decided to release it at noon.
But Joonyoung released his at noon too.
- So I wondered why he released then. / - Why?
My boss thought it'd be a good time to monitor.
- Otherwise he'd be sleeping. / - The company's CEO.
- His boss can't stay up at night / - He can't wait.
- because he gets tired. / - Right.
So he wanted to do it at noon when he was awake.
I mentioned earlier about our Girls' Generation group.
Seungchul leads the gathering
- but the moms hardly say a word. / - Really?
They can't say a word to Seungchul
because he's someone they've admired for a long time,
- so how can they? / - That's understandable.
Especially my wife, she still has your autograph
- from when she got in middle school. / - Really?
She has many of them in her collection.
So I told her to show it to him.
But she was like, "No way"
But now we're close enough to share drinks.
Anyway, the moms in that group couldn't even talk.
When we look at Seungchul's music,
he has so many songs. They're uncountable.
It's impossible to sing all his songs in his concert.
So you have an excess number of songs, right?
- More than enough. / - Isn't that right?
I have the copyright to 185 songs.
I definitely can't sing them all.
Out of that long list of songs, is there one
that you consider a personal favorite?
I know it's really hard to pick just one,
but if there is one, what is it?
There's one I'm really thankful for.
The song that let me be recognized again,
- "Never Ending Story." / - "Never Ending Story."
That reminds me that I should thank Jaeseok.
For what?
Boohwal had released "Never Ending Story",
but three months went by without much recognition.
- Do you mean "Never Ending Story"? / - Yes.
And the radio producers...
It was when H.O.T. was really popular.
The producers told our manager
that the song was too outdated for the radio.
They said that about "Never Ending Story."
- But it's a really good song. / - I know.
So Kim Taewon and I were about to give up.
- Then Jaeseok and Eunyi visited our studio / - Yes.
- for a TV show called, "Meaningful Night." / - Right.
They filmed us practicing.
After the show aired on TV,
the song got recognized and became a big hit.
- Now it's seen as a classic. / - It worked that way.
On keyboard, Yu Jaeseok!
And she left out the door
So, it was through "Meaningful Night!"
Yes. It was all thanks to Jaeseok.
Even me, I'm really thankful.
"Meaningful Night" was cancelled soon after that.
I really liked that show.
- There must be reasons. / - We were really bad at it.
Anyway, although the show was cancelled,
a legendary song was reborn
and we were able to tell more people about it.
Jaeseok, you added another nice story to your list.
He's really greedy when it comes to music.
He has an unbelievable studio
- at his place in the basement. / - Yes, I saw it.
His piano is over 100 grand. Is that right?
Well, I sing a lot of ballads.
The piano is really important. The sound of piano.
I was recording and I didn't like the sound
so I went to a store to buy one.
There was one in particular that caught my eye
and they told me it was made in 1877.
The 140-year-old piano was so beautiful.
I wanted to test it, so I brought it to the studio.
I found out later how expensive it was.
Wasn't your wife upset?
She wasn't happy. But I said,
"Do I have to ask you when I buy instruments?"
- I went strong. / - That's what he really did.
I really did.
Then she said it's pretty. Then left.
That's different from me.
I have to ask even when I buy a USB key.
"Can I buy three gigs?" And she goes, "No, buy two!"
"I'm okay as long as it works."
Anyway, is the sound different?
People like us don't really know.
Of course. It was made by a master craftsman
140 years ago. The wood is different.
And so are the sound and touch. It sounds so beautiful.
A great musician should use great instruments.
- They must have good tools. / - "Tools"!
Whatever Seungchul says
you agree with everything.
There's nothing I can disagree with.
While we're on the topic,
do you have any seniors you're afraid of?
- It's Cho Yongpil. / - Really?
I'd probably be shaking more than Myungsoo
if I were in front of Cho Yongpil.
- Why is that? / - Why?
I don't know, I just get nervous.
- Really? / - I just get the shivers
and I don't want to be there.
That's right.
Yes, it's because I find him difficult.
That's right.
I used to follow him when he had drinks.
I waited him until he's done, then drove him home.
Even you had the times like that.
(We had a simple quiet wedding in private)
Seungsoo, why did you get married so secretively?
- Are you married? / - Didn't you know?
- He's wearing a ring. / - Where?
I see.
He got married in Bali.
- With a woman from Bali? / - No.
Then why did he go all the way there?
It wasn't a secret. We just did it quietly.
I didn't feel comfortable inviting celebrities
to a huge hotel for a big wedding.
So it was just the two of us
- and our parents. / - From both sides.
It's like Won Bin and Lee Nayoung.
- Congratulations. / - Thank you.
Didn't the bride feel disappointed?
No, she wanted it that way.
- Really? / - Yes.
- It's your first marriage. / - Yes.
Just wondering why you had to make it a secret.
It's my first.
But I heard you don't live together right now.
Yes, I'm in Seoul for work
and she has a job in Daegu.
Daegu? That's what you meant.
Then it makes sense.
Why are you yelling?
- I thought she was being chased. / - No.
Did you propose to her?
She didn't accept my proposal
- in the beginning. / - When you proposed?
So I wrote down how I felt and made a book.
I showed her how I felt through a book.
Rumor has it that your wife has a strong personality.
She's a cold person.
- Really? / - But she has a warm heart.
I have agoraphobia.
I can't remember where, but there were lots of people.
We were somewhere in the middle, eating.
Then I had a panic attack.
I can't eat when it happens.
I was in a panic with cold sweat running down my face.
Out of habit, I put down the spoon and went to a corner
out of sight to take my pills.
She didn't come looking for me.
She was just eating and waiting.
Usually people would ask if you're okay.
So I think she can be cold sometimes.
- But when I asked her later on, / - What did she say?
she said if she was also startled,
- she thought it would make me more nervous. / - Wise.
- She acted like nothing happened. / - That's not easy.
That's not easy to do if you're not a strong person.
It's hard to bear, unless you're strong
or determined.
What's the age gap between the two of you?
11 years.
- She's younger, right? / - Yes.
It would be weird if she were older.
My wife's two years older than me
and I feel loved and am living happily.
She's raising me.
So was it your wife's idea to live separately?
Yes, because we both have to work.
We'll live together some day.
So you're just waiting for her orders.
So what's good about being married?
- There must be something. / - What's best?
Firstly, when I go meet people,
I don't have to hear people asking me
"Why aren't you getting married?"
When we were backstage, I asked if you were happy
about getting married, and you said "I don't know."
Is that right?
It was when you, Jaeseok, and I were talking.
- Tattle tale. / - I eavesdropped.
So do we talk about what happens in backstage too?
There's a camera in the waiting room.
Really? I see.
It's called "Waiting Room Talk."
So how is it?
You're a newlywed, but you said you're not sure.
I think he really loves his wife.
Because of the disorder he has a hard time on planes,
so he really put his life on the line to go to Bali
for the wedding, didn't you?
Then he really loves her to death.
I once had an advertisement come in
but the shoot had to be done in Australia.
So I said I couldn't do it.
I had to give up because I can't take a flight.
So how did you get to Bali?
I thought to myself,
"How long will I have to sacrifice my happiness"
"because of this fear?"
To be happy, I should just...
- just face it. / - Face it.
(A trip to Bali in search of happiness)
(He could only find courage)
(Because of the loving bride beside him)
Bae Yongjoon is getting married soon, too.
Aren't you guys best friends?
- Really? / - Yes.
Are you friends? You did "Winter Sonata" together.
It's funny. After I got married,
everyone is getting married.
- But Seungsoo started it! / - That's true.
In his eyes, everything on Earth starts
from him.
- It seems like it. / - Of course.
So when was the last time you talked to Yongjoon?
I bet it's been a while.
- Earlier this year I guess. / - Early this year.
He called to congratulate me for the wedding.
Did you know?
Did you know he was dating Park Sujin?
Yes, after I read the article.
Didn't you just say you're best friends?
- You don't make sense. / - What is that?
Isn't it understandable?
Why would he tell me?
Of course he could tell you.
I pick up his calls if he calls me,
but I don't call him.
If he calls me to come, I go.
If he doesn't, I stay.
Oh...
I heard Seungchul is really good to your wife.
It doesn't take much.
- I just do as I'm told. / - Right.
- I just listen to her. / - That's right.
It's peaceful if I just wear what she tells me to wear.
So your wife picks out your outfits sometimes, right?
It's not just sometimes now.
I can't even pick my shoes nowadays.
Does she pick everything for you?
It's become a habit to ask her.
We stay close together 365 days in a year.
Not only at home, but also the outside.
- She comes with me for concerts. / - You go together.
And out of three meals a day, I have at least two
with her.
I mostly eat at home.
I hear some people fight more when they're together
and having some break is healthy for them.
I guess you're the opposite.
That's why older women are better.
Seungchul, do you normally say sorry first
when you fight?
No, well, since it's the second marriage for us both,
there's a limit to how much we fight.
We try to be careful.
When the rage meter goes up, it stops there.
I think when you're younger, you quarrel more.
But when you pass a certain age,
you try to be more considerate
and avoid what needs to be avoided.
We've moved on to our "Late Night Cafeteria."
Today's guests fit well with "Late Night Cafeteria."
They have good taste in cooking.
Joonyoung has a blog about food.
- Seungchul had a cookbook published. / - Yes.
- He really enjoys cooking. / - Yes.
But since this is a night time snack bar,
- it's more a snack than a cuisine. / - Simple is good.
- That's what works. / - Make it fast and cheap.
- Whatever is easy to eat. / - That's right.
Hanbyul, do you cook?
I've never made anything fancy
- but I never failed a dish. / - Really?
What about you, Seungsoo?
I don't really like to cook.
Excuse me? You're on a cooking show and you say that.
What do you want us to do?
Are you the type who won't lift a finger?
No, I have a child's tastes.
It's really easy to make what I like.
Same with me.
Then you'd be able to make what Jaeseok likes.
You never know. We have Myungsoo too.
- Myungsoo has exquisite taste. / - Is that so?
I'm a foodie.
So Joonyoung, you run a blog.
Are you good at cooking too?
Yes, but I've been busy lately.
(Joonyoung uploads his dishes on his blog)
(A strong contender)
I brought the perfect dish to win.
- Great. / - He wants to win.
It's a dish that's also on my blog.
- Really? / - That's it, it has to be good.
That sounds great.
We have high expectations on three of your dishes.
Seungsoo, you brought something at least, right?
- There has got to be one. I'm sure. / - Really?
- I think we can guess if we see it. / - Shall we?
- Let's see the first dish. / - Okay.
It smells good.
- Smell. / - It costs five dollars.
- It's heavy. / - For five dollars.
And it takes 6 minutes 20 seconds. That's an average
- with the price as well. / - Whose dish is this?
- Why is it so heavy? / - It's heavy?
Normally it's not as heavy.
- Is it a bone soup? / - Let's take a look.
What is it?
(A Rendezvous Between Sesame Leaf and Rice Balls)
It's sesame leaf.
- Sesame leaf? / - That looks good.
Who made this dish?
It's Young's Blog's Sesame Leaf Rice Balls.
- Young's Blog's Sesame Leaf Rice Balls. / - Young's.
- That looks good. / - It comes with a drink.
What's the drink?
A non-alcoholic mojito.
A non-alcoholic mojito?
I really like mojitos made strong.
- What? / - It's so sour.
- Wasn't that a little too much? / - It's too sour.
- It's not that bad. / - Really?
I do this for the sake of the program.
No, it's really sour.
Is it that sour?
You can try the mojito. It's very sour.
It's an indirect kiss.
Right? I told you.
- It's not that bad. / - It's that bad!
What's the name of this dish?
- Young-bok-bap. / - Young-bok-bap?
It just looks like rice balls wrapped in sesame leaves.
- Right. / - It's not that special.
Yes, it's not that unique. But I wanted it to be fun,
so I put in different ingredients inside.
- What did you put in? / - Are they all different?
There's one with cheese.
Oh, this one's tuna.
Yes, there's tuna.
Also chili peppers and wasabi.
- So it's a draw. / - That's right.
It tastes good.
- Is it good? / - It has to be good because...
It's tuna.
- And sesame leaf. / - It's the basics.
He's got it! He got the one!
- You picked the wrong one. / - Is it chili peppers?
- Chili pepper or wasabi? / - It's wasabi.
- Mine tastes even better now. / - He copied the show.
You know those days at home you're bored
- and want to do something fun. / - Do something fun.
And eat with friends.
When you're hungry.
It's good.
You're good at picking the right ones.
- Jaeseok never runs out of luck. / - Really.
- My mouth is watering. / - It's so good.
My mouth is watering.
It's so good. Let's do one more.
I'm done, no more.
Come on, just one more.
Jaeseok should pick out a bad one.
He's really good at picking.
- What did you get? / - It's another good one.
This dish doesn't need an explanation.
Just the sesame leaf on a rice ball is tasty.
It's like sushi.
- It tastes good. / - It's kind of like sushi.
But the wasabi is no good.
Actually, if you look at it,
it's not that creative, but the taste...
- is good. / - Is it good?
- If you play the guessing game with friends, / - Yes.
- it would be fun. / - Like Joonyoung said earlier,
if we hide two bad ones in the bunch
and see who gets them...
But the bad thing is, you know how this might taste.
You didn't expect the wasabi.
That wasn't expected but...
You didn't expect it at all.
I'm sorry.
Did you eat something rotten?
It doesn't smell like wasabi, does it?
I hear that my insides are rotten.
Then...
What place will this dish take?
For now, it's in first place!
It's the only dish so far and in first place.
Next.
- The time on this... / - Ten minutes and four dollars.
- It's cheaper but it takes longer. / - A long time.
Four dollars.
What is it?
(A Rendezvous Between Bread and Salad)
- That's hard to eat at night. / - It's a bit heavy.
- This is... / - It's breakfast.
I don't know whose dish this is but
this is breakfast.
Didn't you hear we're making snacks?
- It's at least 800 calories. / - This...
- This... / - Take this back.
Why did you bring breakfast?
This is a proper meal.
- Whose is this? / - Who made this?
I'm sure it's his.
- Are you saying it's mine? / - Isn't it yours?
- That's horrible acting. / - It's mine.
We knew it was yours the moment it came out.
- It says, Ryu Seungsoo on it. / - Ryu Seungsoo.
You can see that the food is bluffing.
Jam for a nighttime snack.
I really like this dish.
It does look good though.
It might taste good, but it's not fitting for a snack.
Don't we all have fond memories of salada?
Salada?
What do you mean Salada?
I thought you're educated.
It was in the 80s when the economy was bad
and they called salad "salada".
- How did you make the... / - How do you make it?
It looks a little different.
- You boil potatoes and mash them. / - Okay.
And I put in some sausages in it.
I remember when I was young, my mom would bring home
- that salad. / - It looks good.
It's a sentimental salad.
You cut the cucumbers in half, then ham.
You know that old style ham.
Some raisins and mayo.
Then a little bit of
- sugar. / - As much as you want.
- It sounds delicious. / - Then you mix it together.
Tell us how you should eat this.
Put some jam on the bread first.
Isn't this what mountain expedition groups eat?
Do I use another piece of bread or just one?
Use another piece.
Then what about the salad?
- Should I put some on? / - No.
I eat it separately.
- What? / - Really?
- To taste them separately. / - That's Jaeseok style.
It's sweet with the egg and bread.
I know it is good but...
Try it.
For Jaeseok who likes children's food.
I really want to try it.
You eat that when you want to gain weight.
He's going to eat it all.
- It's amazing. / - You have to put on a lot of jam.
I've forgotten about the rice balls.
Right?
Try it. Have some.
It's really good, right?
Jam's all over the place.
It's so good, I really like it.
On top of this...
This is mom's salad.
It's good, I like the raisins.
If you add soda to this, it's 1000 calories.
- 1000 calories. / - 1000 calories with a soda.
- If you want something sweeter... / - It's good.
- Put more jam on top. / - Jam.
What place is this dish at?
Second. In second place.
Why is it in second place though you liked it so much?
To be fair, it's second.
It's just not a late night snack.
This is not a late night snack.
It's for mountain expeditions.
But it tastes great.
- I want to try some. / - You do, don't you?
- I'm hungry. / - It has all the tastes we like.
- It'll make you feel happier./ - Right.
I'm feeling a lot happier.
- This... / - Five minutes?
- Five minutes. / - It's too light.
One, two...
- What is it? It looks fancy. / - Pizza?
- How can this be a snack? / - How many calories?
What is it, ten thousand calories?
I don't know who it is, but by deduction...
- We've already had greasy food. / - I like this.
I don't think it's Seungchul.
- It's not him. / - Whose is it?
- It's mine. / - I really like it.
What is it? What's the name of the dish?
It's Egg Crust.
Egg Crust.
It's egg and crispy rice crust.
There's rice inside.
You mix rice and egg and make it into a pancake.
Rice and the egg alone tastes
- really good. / - Really?
Cheese is optional.
This does kind of look like pizza.
- It's crispy rice crust. / - crispy rice crust.
I really like it.
Have you had this before Saeho?
No. But I really love mozzarella.
I really envy those who can eat this.
Why can't you?
People like us
gain weight easily.
She can eat like that as she is not like us.
I'm so jealous. Jaeseok too!
They don't seem to enjoy it.
It's good.
Your voice sounds suddenly different.
Your tone dropped a notch.
This just tastes like pizza.
It's like a pizza, right?
Hey, don't lie.
No, really.
- It's not bad. / - The moment you eat it, you'll think
"I'm going to gain weight tomorrow."
- It doesn't taste bad. / - How is it?
Pizza is better.
Pizza tastes better.
That is true.
But don't you have to watch your diet?
How can you eat this?
Yes. I can eat almost anything...
And don't you gain weight?
- Don't you gain weight? / - I'm so jealous.
She's really lucky.
Up until now, we've had three dishes.
As for the taste, it's between Joonyoung and Seungsoo.
The last dish is by Seungchul.
I'm really excited to see what Seungchul
prepared for us today.
We've had too much oily food.
Since it's a late night snack,
it's less than 150 calories.
- Is that so? / - Even if you eat a lot of it.
- There is no pressure then. / - Really?
- I even prepared a drink. / - Alcohol?
With the drink, it's still less than 150 calories.
But won't it taste bad?
- Try it. / - He's had a cookbook published.
What is it?
(Kelp and Chicken Breast Rolls)
- What is it? / - Kelp?
Jaeseok hates kelp.
Just looking at it, it looks healthy.
- What's inside? / - Is it chicken breast?
It's marinated chicken breast.
- Yes, and? / - And...
- Various vegetables... / - Paprika.
There should be paprika of all colors.
Anyway, carrots, cucumbers, peppers and chicken,
- and then kelp. / - It's a low-calorie food.
- Jaeseok looks disappointed. / - And chili sauce.
- Yes, I am a little. / - A lot of chili sauce.
Because he published a cookbook...
I like things like this.
Dip it in the chili sauce really well.
I think it'll be good with the sauce.
There's also spicy and sour sauce.
- Yes, the spicy and sour sauce. / - That's right.
Or even mustard sauce.
Why aren't you talking?
Say something.
I really like kelp
- so this is very good. / - Is it?
I like the texture. If you like seafood...
But there's chicken in this one.
Isn't he praising it because Seungchul made it?
I didn't eat much because I didn't want a potbelly,
but since this is low in calories, I'll have another.
What's wrong? Can't I have another?
This beer is alcohol-free, and has zero calories.
- Really? / - Zero calories and zero alcohol.
- No alcohol? / - Try it.
You can have this if you want to drink while eating.
No matter how much you eat, it's only 100 calorie.
Wait, hold on.
This is without alcohol, right?
If there is any, he will faint.
No, none at all.
Bottoms up.
Does it smell like beer?
It tastes exactly the same as beer
but there's no alcohol.
- You're right. / - It tastes the same.
You see, I have to work so hard to watch my weight
so just looking at the other dishes makes me sad.
Yes, Seungchul is always careful about his weight.
I always have to lose about ten pounds before a show.
So you eat something like this before a concert.
- Yes, I have something like that. / - It's good.
- I told you it's good. / - It's really good.
Normally we eat fried food with beer,
and that's hard to digest. Not this, though.
If it wasn't Seungchul's dish,
Myungsoo probably would have complained.
That's true.
No, it really tastes good.
Anyway, we don't know what the four of you think.
There must be at least three votes.
Let's vote.
Two Seungsoo, three Joonyoung and one Hanbyul.
With a tiebreaker, Joonyoung has won.
That's a lot of ingredients.
There's a variety.
- Dried anchovies at home. / - Anchovies.
Tuna, sesame leaf...
And that's wasabi, right?
I want to give one to Seungchul
- so I prepared it. / - That sounds good.
- I like wasabi. / - You can test your luck.
There's one in the bunch.
This is really easy to make.
Even young kids can make it.
One, put the rice in a bowl.
- I'm doing it like a blogger. / - One.
Two, mix in the seaweed.
That's why it was good.
It's marinated seaweed.
I was wondering why it tasted so good.
Now pour the sesame oil.
- Quite a bit. / - That's a lot.
Because we'll also add more stuff.
Then you mix it.
- Is that all? / - Yes.
- Wow, it smells good. / - It smells yummy.
Should we just do a huge wasabi one?
Yes, we should give the glory to one person.
- This is good just on its own. / - I know.
Usually the people that suggest such games...
- Wow, look. / - That's a little...
Yes, that seems enough.
- Yes, that looks like a good amount. / - Perfect.
That way you'll feel it right away.
Seungsoo, can you predict the future?
As in who will eat it.
- Is everyone having a piece? - Yes, everyone.
Five of you.
- I think Saeho. / - I think Hanbyul.
I normally don't get chosen.
- I think Hanbyul will get it. / - He's lucky.
Should we vote on who might get it?
No, there's no time.
- We don't have time for that. / - He ignored you.
You have to make this too.
The non-alcoholic mojito.
The reason why it was so sour...
Why was it so sour?
I put in both lemon and lime.
Lime?
- It was sour. / - It was really sour.
- Is this the lime? / - This is really strong.
It's concentrate.
- Put in a lot of lime. / - What?
- Someone should try this. / - I'll put it in for you.
You can just drink it like this.
- Really? Then why don't you... / - No.
Just one spoon.
Drink it! Drink it!
Are you trying to kill me?
I'll do it. I'll show you that I'm working hard.
Here, I'll put some on a spoon here...
We do things much more difficult than this.
- That's right. / - Give it to me.
All right, hold on.
Is that edible?
How is it?
Are you okay?
How was it?
That really wakes you up.
- It must be not that bad. / - Forget it.
- No one's making eye contact. / - Just try it.
It's okay, no thanks.
I mean everyone, just once.
It's too much.
It's okay.
It's not that bad.
- It's not that bad. / - Are you all right, Seungsoo?
How do you feel?
Go away!
Look at him, it's method acting.
- It's method acting. / - Are you all right?
Seungsoo, are you all right?
You'll live. You'll live.
Seungsoo, you'll live.
- Seungsoo. / - Seungsoo.
Am I going to make it?
- That's good. / - Seungsoo.
Seungsoo, you'll live on.
I can't go without you.
It hurts here.
Stop pinching me.
- That was good acting. / - How did he do it?
- Did you have it? / - Of course.
Now, everyone take a rice ball.
You might get the wasabi one.
We'll eat one by one.
Father...
- Let's start with Saeho. / - Okay, here I go.
Are we doing a wave?
Thank you for the food.
You can act.
Saeho?
I normally don't get chosen.
- I think Hanbyul will get it. / - He's lucky.
You can act, you can act.
You can act like you don't have it.
That's fake.
Oh, gosh.
The first person got it.
You really have supernatural powers!
- Isn't that acting? / - No, it's real.
Look, he's crying.
No, you have to eat it.
He's insane.
Next is Shinyoung.
I think I'll be fine.
- He's insane. / - Bring out the mojito.
There's only one, right?
But there might be hot peppers.
Is there hot peppers?
- I got anchovies. / - Anchovies.
I really want Seungchul to eat this
- so I prepared it. / - That's good.
- I like wasabi. / - You can test your luck.
There's only one.
- No... / - He's got it!
Did he eat it?
- It's burning! / - No, no.
I don't have it.
Now it's between the two of you.
Hanbyul.
The two of you can eat it at the same time.
- One, two, three. / - One, two, three.
Yes, that seems enough.
- That seems like a good amount. / - Great.
That way you'll feel it right away.
I think Seungsoo will get it.
- I can't eat spicy food. / - Ryu Myeong.
- When you look at it... / - He's going to get it.
We'll mix the rice balls in the back.
We made this as a sample.
They already premade them.
Is that good enough?
The two of you can eat it at the same time.
- One, two, three. / - One, two, three.
Look at each other.
One is wasabi and one is chili peppers.
I saw the wasabi leak.
You could see it, right?
We tried Young-bok-bap on "Late Night Cafeteria."
We tried some of it.
What do you think now that the show is over?
- I don't think he's eating. / - I am.
Since I ate this rice ball,
I'll work passionately and succeed.
Please give a round of applause for Seungsoo.
Thank you.
Lee Seungchul, Park Hanbyul
and Jung Joonyoung. Thank you all for joining us.
We'll be back next week for another happy episode.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
