- Susie, are you nervous? - Yes?
- Yes. - You don't need to be nervous.
(Welcome, Susie.)
- I said let's meet someday. - To meet.
- Oh really? - Really?
(Please edit it out.)
How do you like me?
(The love virus spreads. Another lover appears.)
- Seat over here. - It became awkward.
It was smooth. I think it will go well.
I signed "MOU".
(It's the hot personal discussion of those still young at heart.)
(Episode "Flaming Radio Star" starts now.)
Knock, knock, knock.
Who is it?
I'm Susie's boyfriend.
It's you.
You don't have to come alone.
Are you impersonating Yang Hee Eun?
I might be.
(Who is he impersonating?)
I brought my girlfriend Susie with me.
You're a couple.
I abhor couples.
I thought so.
That's why I brought Madonna, Club Mania and Death Angel.
Oh, my gosh.
- I'm ready to burn the night away. - Okay.
(She's familiar with her boyfriend's famous line.)
Let's stay up all night tonight.
(Everybody scream.)
All right. We open our door to anyone,
even if you don't come knocking.
You are watching a high-end music programme,
- Radio Star. - Radio Star.
- That was a fabulous introduction. - It was.
Are you a poet?
I just wrote it.
Oh, dear. It's lovely.
Happy birthday, Susie. From Gook Jin.
Knock, knock. Who is it?
It's Susie.
It's you. You don't have to knock.
I'm so touched by it.
I lived to see this day. This day has finally come.
- I lived to see this. - Yes, its about time.
He should get married now.
He's been alone far too long.
- All right. Today... - It's been over 10 years, right?
- Yes. - Gu Ra is so sour today.
- It's just... - Why are you so sour?
It would be strange for me to be too thrilled.
I'm very happy inside, and I'm rooting for them.
I root for Gu Ra.
- Is that right? - I'm rooting for you.
- You root for him now? - I root for him.
- He's rooting for you now. - That's right.
- You don't have to root for me now. - Hey.
(Gu Ra is lonely.)
Today, we invited four guests...
who are living the hottest moments of their lives.
Hence the episode title, "Flaming Radio".
This lady who is famous for her song "Violet Fragrance"...
turns out to be like a lovely fragrance herself.
- She shines bright. - On "Flaming Youth",
instead of finding a friend, she found the man of her fate.
Now she's burning with love.
My dear fellow MCs.
Don't bother this lady with embarrassing questions.
- All right. - "She's mine".
- Why did you skip that part? - Why did you skip "She's mine"?
- You have to follow the script. - "She's mine."
- In the script... - "Do not bother this lady."
"She's mine". You skipped the last part.
She's mine, yet you said it.
She looks prettier than ever. It's Kang Susie.
- Kang Susie. - Why did you omit "She's mine"?
- Why did you omit this part? - "She's mine."
All right. Susie.
(She's Gook Jin's Susie.)
This lady burnt Korean men's hearts in the past.
- She's the original sexy diva. - That's right.
When she came to her senses, all the men were gone.
She's left all alone. She must be very upset.
There's Kwang Kyu.
I know.
- Yet she supported the couple. - There's Kwang Kyu.
In the end, she's left alone again.
How do I do this?
(Kyu Hyun tries to help.)
I want to be in love now
Kim Wan Sun.
(She smiles brightly.)
This man went from a gentleman to a late bloomer.
Every night, he's dancing away his midlife stress in Gangnam clubs.
He's the club mania in his fifties. It's Park Soo Hong.
This man appears on television once in every quarter.
He's still in the dark.
- He's always dark. - Is it his heyday this year?
Today's appearance on Radio Star...
marks his fifth appearance on public television this year.
With that he hit his goal.
He's aiming to receive the Rookie of the Year Award...
from the 2016 MBC Entertainment Awards.
- Death Angel, Soo Yong. - Yes.
- Welcome. - He's a frequent visitor.
- Right. - Welcome.
Welcome.
(Susie is here.)
Welcome.
- Susie should sit there. - Yes.
- Here. - Yes.
Thank you.
- Hello. - What's this?
I do that. What's wrong with it?
(He's happy.)
Welcome. Please say hi to our viewers.
- Susie, please begin. - Okay.
Hello. It's nice to see you all.
(Gook Jin is very happy.)
I came out here because...
Gook Jin once said he'd bring me here.
I came out here so that he can keep his promise.
How long have you been dating?
How many days have it been? People count days these days.
- I will tell her to come here. - What?
- I'll tell her to come here. - To Radio Star?
You can ask her directly.
You came here so that your boyfriend can keep his word.
Right. He's a man of his word.
- All right. - How lovely.
When was the last time you saw each other?
It's a secret.
It must be very recent.
- Was it yesterday? - Was it yesterday?
It's a secret. Why would you keep it a secret?
(It's a secret.)
Wan Sun,
- Yes. Hello. - please say hi.
Hello. Everyone. I'm very excited for today.
After Heung Gook, she was the first person to doze off during the shoot.
- That happened last time. - She dozed off during the shoot.
- By the way... - That was so natural.
She dances very well.
- How can you yawn while talking? - She...
She was dozing off.
(She almost fell asleep during the talk.)
- It was before Gu Ra joined us. - It was when I wasn't here.
It must've been very boring.
(She's awake today.)
- Soo Hong, please say hi. - Yes.
Hello, everyone.
I didn't know I was going to become like this.
I'm currently living a life of merrymaking.
I'm Park Soo Hong.
You could...
- go straight to club like that. - Yes.
By the way, your permed hair looks like...
Lee Tzsche's hair when she was singing "Damdadi".
I thought he looked like Chang Jung Koo.
(They all have curly hair like a poodle.)
It looks good on him.
Ladies must know. The hairdresser rolled...
- my hair with number two rolls. - The thinnest roll.
I stayed for two hours without neutralisation.
- It turned out well. - I see.
It can last up to two years.
- This is... - Soo Hong has changed.
- He looks much more lively. - Oh, dear.
- He used to gentle. - I've been...
hearing things from people.
I heard that you like drinking and exercising.
- Yes. - You drink now?
- You used to not drink at all. - I used to not drink at all.
Do you...
- Do you drink now? - He drinks now.
- Do you? - I drink quite well now.
- I see. - As long as I'm not paying.
You're still not a big drinker.
It can put pressure on me if I'm paying.
- Soo Yong, please say hi. - Yes.
Hello. I'm Kim Soo Yong the Dragon.
He's SD.
Do you eat broccoli at all?
- It's good for curing dark circles. - I don't.
- Never? - Never.
That's your character.
- Yes. I can't lose them. - If he loses them,
- he might be boring. - Of course.
I am not trying to offend him,
but I find it awkward to see Soo Yong so lively and smiling.
- He seems to have lost his... - You call that lively?
- Yes. - No way.
- That's... - You don't call that lively.
- You look too excited. - My goodness.
That's a big laugh for me.
(He's laughing out loud.)
All right, Susie.
- Yes? - It's the first time for us...
since "Flaming Youth" to be on a TV show together.
- Right. - Are you nervous?
- Follow the script. - Follow the script.
"Are you nervous, Susie? You don't have to be nervous."
- Why won't you follow it? - He's 50 years old.
- Why won't you say that? - He's 50 years old.
- What's wrong with you? - Gook Jin needs to say it.
Please follow the script.
- Please read it. - What's in the script?
- Susie. - Yes?
- Are you nervous? - Well...
- Just a little bit. - Is that right?
- Yes. I don't need to. - You don't need to be nervous.
(Her heart sank.)
(His heart sank, too.)
- How lovely is that? - Lovely.
Recently...
They're not the guys I know.
- They've never been like this. - Recently,
- we had a party. - Okay.
After 30 minutes, he was leading the conversation.
- Gook Jin? - Gook Jin was leading it.
- He was leading it. - He usually don't talk too much.
- He never used to talk much. - Yes.
He became very talkative.
- No. No. - He gives dating advice...
- to our writers. - He offers advice.
He was ready for the second round.
Last time, I asked Gook Jin how long you've been dating.
- He told us to ask Susie. - Yes.
- Ask her. - All right.
How long have you been dating? You were...
- here last May. - Yes.
Is there a fan you remember?
Gook Jin.
(Gook Jin's heart pounds.)
When do I look cute, Gook Jin?
(He smiles brightly.)
You talk well.
He's...
Why did you suddenly...
He deserves it.
- Were you already dating then? - They weren't.
We weren't dating.
- I watched that episode. - Did you watch it?
- And... - Wasn't there something?
When Gook Jin doesn't like something, it shows on his face.
But whenever she said something, he laughed out loud.
He only laughs like that...
only when he feels awkward and he's feelings are revealed.
At the time, we had been shooting together for a while.
- So we were very close. - We were close.
- Yes. - I see.
Do you know that Gook Jin spent a night in Pocheon?
I don't know.
Why did you have to think for a while before you said that?
- I didn't know. - Then...
you didn't tell her?
- Did I make a mistake? - Not at all.
- Did I cause trouble? - No.
- Not at all. - Perhaps you will have an argument?
- Don't you worry. - Pocheon...
- Don't you worry. - What's wrong?
Did I make a mistake?
- Not at all. - I'm glad you mentioned it.
- Was I bad? - He went to Pocheon...
- to exercise. - It's your specialty.
He must've gone there for a reason.
- See? - But I didn't know about it.
- So you weren't going out yet. - Look.
Look how wise she is.
(She lightly touches him.)
- He must've had a reason. - Does he often go there?
He goes there to exercise.
- Or... - He went there to play golf...
- and stayed a night. - I see.
When that happens...
When he's staying a night somewhere, does he tell you?
Does he tell you that he's going to stay a night?
- Does he tell me? - "I'm going to sleep over."
He doesn't ask me for permission. But when he tells me...
that he's going to stay a night somewhere, I tell him he should.
I tell him to have fun.
- So he does ask for her permission. - Yes.
- I don't ask for permission. - That's not it.
- Of course. - We're too old to be...
- asking each other for permission. - Of course.
She's... She's very clever.
Susie sounds different today.
- It's the way I speak. - She naturally...
refers to Gook Jin as "Honey".
It's better for me to refer him...
- as "Gook Jin" then, right? - It's fine.
- Is that right? - How long have you been together?
We started going out last autumn.
- Last autumn. - I see.
- It's been a year. - Yes.
- They must like each other a lot. - I have...
a question for Susie.
- You're asking a question? - This is...
like "Section TV".
- It's like "Section TV". - You're asking a question?
- I'm shocked. - I was shocked, too.
It's my first time since my debut to ask someone a question.
(It's his first time to ask a question on TV.)
- It's my first question. - He's not curious about anything.
- Of course. - What is it?
20 years ago when I was in my office,
- Gook Jin got paged. - Someone paged him.
- Someone left him a voice message. - Yes.
When he heard the message, he laughed like this.
(Laughing)
And he hung up. I asked him who it was.
He said, "It's Susie."
- Really? - It was 20 some years ago.
- It was 20 years ago. - "Susie is in Tokyo."
I don't know if it was from the same Susie.
He just said it was from Susie.
- I didn't ask him any more. - I see.
Did you leave him a message from Tokyo?
Didn't you leave a message on his pager in the early 1990s?
I don't remember that, but...
You worked in Japan back then.
- I lived in Japan for two years. - That's right.
- I don't remember exactly, but... - Did you two keep in touch?
I think I kept in touch with him...
since the early 1990s.
Then, I guess it was her who left him the message then.
It might've been me. Do you remember that?
- Well, that was. - There was Choi Soo Ji, too.
Then, I guess it wasn't me.
She's so sensitive. She said, "I guess it wasn't me."
I don't remember.
- Back then, Susie was... - I think it was Susie.
- working in Japan. - That's right.
- Lee Gyeong Gyu went to Japan, too. - He studied in Japan.
I once went to Japan, too. When I went there...
- Did you meet Susie in Japan? - I asked her...
if she was doing well in Japan.
I remember she bought me a cup of coffee.
He remembers everything.
That's right. While I was working in Japan,
I met Gook Jin and his manager.
They were acquainted with each other back then.
I remember how Gook Jin cared about her back then.
- When singers like Uhm Jung Hwa... - The popular singers at that time.
held concerts, he didn't go to their concerts...
except for Susie's concerts.
- Is that weird? - From my perspective,
people who are meant to be meet each other somehow.
Back then, they were just good friends.
- That's right. - We shouldn't...
exaggerate it like this.
That's what yellow journalism does.
- They were just good friends then. - That's funny.
Are you jealous?
(I'm just lonely.)
Anyway, according to Susie,
Gook Jin asked her out on his knee...
- giving her a bunch of flowers. - Just stick to the script.
Don't make things up.
Can't a host edit the script?
Isn't that what yellow journalism does?
- I'm a yellow journalist. - Exactly.
I'm a yellow journalist.
Did he ask you to marry him?
- No. He didn't. - No. What are you talking about?
I just asked her to go out with me.
I didn't ask her to marry me.
After the pilot episode of "Flaming Youth" aired,
it became a series in March.
We started working together.
- You can speak louder than that. - Okay.
However...
(He's just happy that she's here.)
While we filmed "Flaming Youth", we exchanged text messages.
I'd say, "Thanks for today."
Then, he'd say, "Thanks as well."
We exchanged text messages quite often.
At some point...
- When? - Who said it first?
Gook Jin asked me,
"Would you go out with me?"
Did he ask you out via text message?
- Or did he ask you in person? - No way.
- We talked on the phone. - You talked on the phone?
- Yes. - I see.
- He called me and asked, - That's not usual for him.
"Would you like to go on a drive with me?"
So I said, "Sure."
We met a few days later.
I'm not sure if I should be telling you this right now, but...
You'd better not say it.
- It's bad timing. - Since things between them...
are going well now, I'll tell you.
I've been having someone follow around Gook Jin...
to monitor him.
That's ridiculous.
- He has been spying on Gook Jin? - He was the most clueless among us.
I asked, "Don't you think something's going on between them?"
He said, "That's nonsense."
He kept saying there was no way they're together.
He's completely clueless when it comes to love.
- Excuse me. When a couple fights... - Oh.
and gets divorced, there's love in the process.
- Do you know what I mean? - I don't understand.
(Lover Gook Jin doesn't understand what he means.)
- What I mean is... - What is he talking about?
I asked his manager, "Is Gook Jin really dating her?"
He said, "Gook Jin really..."
"hates it when others push him to go out with someone."
- "I don't think that's true." - Right.
- I thought they weren't dating. - I see.
I have a question. When celebrities date secretly...
Why do you have so many questions today?
When celebrities date secretly,
they often try holding hands while hiding from the camera.
- I don't think we have... - We've never done that.
I felt a little sad about it, though.
When we first filmed "Flaming Youth" since we started dating,
I felt like he was Choi Gook Jin, not Kim Gook Jin.
- He felt like a different person? - That's right.
He was right in front of me, but I couldn't...
even make eye contact with him.
- So, at first... - It must've hurt your feelings.
It was hard for me at first.
Gook Jin isn't the kind of man who shows his affection a lot.
He shows his affection very often.
- Is that true? - Really?
(Gook Jin shows his affection? That can't be true.)
- I can't believe that. - Hold on.
Did you...
When a person changes, it means he's about to die.
- Is he going to die soon? - Hold on.
Are you sure you're talking about me?
- He's a macho man. - That's not what I mean.
He's a little controlling, too.
- I didn't know I was like that. - Gook Jin is...
like a 500-year-old tree.
- He doesn't get swayed easily. - He's always there.
He's strong-minded.
You know how poplar tree leaves flutter in the wind.
Kim Gook Jin has both a soft side like that and a strong side.
- I didn't know that. - We never saw that side of him.
Only Susie saw that side of him.
I think that makes him very attractive.
(They look so happy.)
I have goosebumps all over my body.
I need something to make them go away.
I know Gook Jin would never say something like this.
I think I should tell some romantic stories.
That's why I'm on this show today.
He's very quiet and charismatic when he's among us.
I'm thinking of writing a book...
about many different sides of him that no one else knows.
You even want to write a book about him.
- I can see how much she loves him. - It'd be a pure love story.
He has a different side.
Is there anything memorable Gook Jin said to you?
He told me this not long ago.
"It's the most important to believe in what you can't see."
"In any relationship, if you truly trust the other,"
"you can believe in the things about the person that you can't see."
It's one of the things he said that touched my heart.
I guess he said that after he spent a night in Pocheon.
We were talking about something else.
- He tried to cover it up. - That's what he was trying to do.
(That's what lovers do.)
He said embarrassing things several times.
- What did he say? - For example?
I think it'd be better if you don't say that.
- Please tell us. - Susie.
Why would you tell them if it's embarrassing?
- Please tell us. - Just tell us one.
- Please tell us. - It's the least embarrassing one.
- Okay. - I'll tell you.
- Please go ahead. - It's okay.
(She hesitates.)
- Why are you hesitating? - It's okay.
- To be honest... - You're our guest.
- You can say whatever you want. - Okay.
(Should I say this or not?)
- You don't have to force it. - Hold on.
Gook Jin, please don't say anything to her.
- I think it's embarrassing, but... - She's trying to pick one of...
- the remarks he made. - he said several things.
"You..."
Go on.
"You..."
Okay. Please go on.
"You..."
- What could it be? - "You are..."
"You are..."
(What cheesy remark did Gook Jin make?)
What is it?
- I can't breathe. - Gook Jin, do you remember that?
- "You are..." - Let her finish.
Go on.
If you really hate it, they'll edit this part out.
- What on earth is it? - It's like a lottery draw.
- Exactly. - Please finish the sentence.
(They can't wait to hear Gook Jin's romantic remark.)
- What on earth is it? - "You are..."
- "You are..." - She's making us all nervous.
- Go on. - You know how to create tension.
- "You are..." - "You are..."
I bet none of you have heard something like this before.
"You are..."
It'd be surprising that a man said something like this.
Hold on. What could it be?
- Gook Jin, don't interrupt. - What is it?
- What could it be? - What is it?
"You are..."
"like a baby I gave birth to."
(She's embarrassed.)
"You're like a baby I gave birth to."
(I can't believe Gook Jin said that.)
(Oh, my goodness.)
- It means he loves her that much. - "You're like my own baby."
- I can't believe it. - "You have my DNA."
(It's not true.)
(Gook Jin's remark shocked everyone in the studio.)
"You're like a baby I gave birth to."
- It's not true. - What is he doing?
It's not true.
- What's wrong? - He's embarrassed.
Don't you think it's a good remark?
- "You're like my own baby." - You know I have a child.
So I understand what he meant. But when he said that,
it made me feel so happy.
It means that he cares about her like himself.
People cherish their children the most in the world.
- As I heard this story... - Yes?
About the fact that he described her as his baby.
I know he meant it well,
but if I'd been Susie, I would've been confused.
- I was very happy to hear it. - Isn't it touching?
- It depends on individuals. - I know what you mean.
It could disappoint someone you're dating.
Why is that? I was extremely happy.
- It's okay if she's happy, but... - Let's move on.
- He said, "A baby I gave birth to." - I understand how she feels.
- "You're like my own baby." - It means he loves her so much.
It's the best way to express the love.
I think I would feel happy, too.
As she told us their love story, Gu Ra kept sighing like this.
(The single man Gu Ra wasn't happy to hear their love story.)
It's not like that. You know what I mean, right?
- Soo Yong, do you know what I mean? - Let's hear what Soo Yong thinks.
- What do you think? - You know what I mean, right?
Isn't he talking about natural childbirth?
(Gu Ra is disappointed.)
Have you two watched the movie, "My Love, Don't Cross That River"?
- It's a very sad movie. - Right.
Movies like that...
They're not that old.
I'm just asking.
Seriously.
It's a beautiful love story. What's wrong with you?
- It's a love story... - That's right. "My Love,"
- of an old couple. - "Don't Cross That River".
- It's about an old couple. - It's a beautiful story.
Exactly. I mentioned it because it's a good movie.
- I mean they're not that old. - That's not the point.
You look very angry today.
- No. I'm not angry. - He looks so angry.
I'm not angry.
Why would I be angry?
- He looks like he feels deprived. - It seems like...
It seems like he lost his calm.
(He lost his calm because he's lonely.)
- Try to keep calm. - I have a question.
Is he always like that when he's on this show?
- Or is he different today? - He's angrier today.
- He's angrier today. - Right?
- He isn't always like that, right? - I think...
he would've grabbed Gook Jin by the collar if I wasn't between them.
Gu Ra doesn't feel...
- comfortable with a romantic mood. - What I meant is...
He doesn't usually show his emotions even when he's happy.
When everyone is talking so romantically,
- there needs to be someone... - Someone realistic?
who talks about realistic things.
You're making me look bad.
- That's not true. - I could smile and say,
- "I'm so happy for you, Gook Jin." - Please don't do that.
- "You're so adorable." - That feels so awkward.
- It feels so awkward. - That's weird.
That sounds so weird.
- I had goosebumps as he said that. - Right.
- I had goosebumps all over my body. - I don't say that for a reason.
- He feels natural when grumbling. - I have my reasons.
I felt so bad for Gu Ra.
- He kept grumbling before the show. - Why?
He said his son didn't help him the day he moved to a new house,
so he packed everything by himself.
- I pitied him. - Okay.
- I understand why he's grumpy. - My son went out...
to see his girlfriend the day before our moving day.
He went out with her on our moving day, too.
He went out with her the next day, too.
- I let him go. I didn't mind. - That's a lie.
I folded his underwear and packed his clothes.
- I'm happy for everyone in love. - After that, he came to the studio,
he read today's script and said,
- "Gosh". - What?
That's... Gosh.
(He pities Gu Ra.)
Don't make up a story.
Soo Hong, you changed your hairstyle.
Did you do that for the Chuseok special TV show?
Yes. On "Our Feisty Relationship",
- You made the right decision. - Soo Yong and I permed our hair.
That's right. You two did it together.
- But he straightened his hair. - Oh, I remember that.
I see.
My hair is still curly.
I just blow dried my hair for this show today.
Soo Hong, do you like your new hairstyle?
At first, I hated it so much that I felt ashamed,
but someone told me...
- that I look cute... - That's right. It suits you.
like a brown poodle.
- That's right. - Right.
- Who told you that? - You look great.
You know how some lonely guys...
go to a park with their dogs to attract women.
But I don't need to do that.
- Because of your hairstyle. - My hair looks cute enough.
- You look like a puppy now. - Exactly.
I don't need a puppy. I just need my hair.
(He can win women's hearts with his hair.)
(I'm the cutest guy in this neighbourhood.)
- You kept the same style for long. - That's right.
- However... - He had his signature hairstyle.
- That's right. - Although he likes this style now,
when we went to the hair salon...
- to film the show, he complained. - He didn't want to perm his hair.
Hee Suk and I didn't mind if we could make the show fun.
He kept complaining, saying he needs to go to a club.
He asked for large curls.
Please use big rollers for me.
I asked you to use big rollers.
Soo Hong, stop it.
- I asked you... - Stop complaining.
(He ended up getting the smallest rollers.)
He kept on complaining.
- But now... - I almost kicked him while filming.
(He almost kicked Soo Hong.)
Now, he sticks to this hairstyle.
I'm not saying this to be funny.
When my niece heard that I'd be on Radio Star,
she said, "Uncle, could you please straighten your hair?"
- She said she'd be embarrassed. - Really?
Even so, I didn't straighten my hair.
The writers asked me...
I'm sure it's written on your script.
They asked me not to straighten my hair.
The hair styling team is here.
I already paid them, but they didn't do anything.
I look cool with straight hair.
For the sake of Radio Star,
I sacrificed my niece's wish and my self-confidence.
- Then... - I'm sacrificing myself. I mean it.
Do you straighten your hair when you go to a club?
- I always try to look stylish. - Right.
I dress up more than when I'm on a TV show.
(You should leave three buttons undone.)
I'll tell you another story about a puppy.
Whenever Soo Yong saw a pretty woman...
holding a puppy in her arms in a park,
he always said,
"How adorable. Can I touch it?"
The lady said, "Yes."
Then, he would pat her on the head like this.
- "How adorable." - Really?
- That's amazing. - He used to be like that.
- It'd cause trouble these days. - He's peculiar.
The lady started crying.
(He's exaggerating the situation.)
- You used to do that. - Did she really cry?
- No. She didn't. It was a joke. - It was a joke.
She just laughed.
- I would laugh, too. - Me, too. I'd find it funny.
He's not a criminal...
- By the way, - even though he looks that way.
for the first time in history of Radio Star,
there haven't been any guests who became a couple.
- I hope Wan Sun and Soo Hong... - Why would you say that?
- will become a couple. - He kept saying that.
- That's right. He did. - I hope they'll become a couple.
What happened between you and Kim Kwang Kyu?
(They're expected to be the next couple on "Flaming Youth".)
- Is something going on? - Kwang Kyu is...
my fellow entertainer who appears on the same show.
(They can't be a couple?)
- Many people are rooting for you. - I know.
Kwang Kyu always says that he's my fan.
- I see. - He says he's just your fan?
How do you think of Soo Hong as a man?
- Why are you trying to be the host? - What do you think?
You shouldn't ask the lady first.
- Ask Soo Hong first. - Soo Hong, how do you think of her?
Everyone at our age is a big fan of hers.
(He confesses his feelings.)
- She's older than him. - In the waiting room,
I couldn't help stare at her even though I knew it was rude.
- She's still beautiful. - She has such firm skin,
and a beautiful body.
She's wearing these trousers...
How do you think of her?
I think...
Soo Yong picked the wrong person for Soo Hong because...
- he likes going to clubs. - What's wrong with that?
- You don't like that type of man? - No.
- There must be... - Do you have a stereotype about me?
- young and pretty girls in clubs. - That's right.
I assure you that these days,
- Someone like Wan Sun... - people at her age go to a club...
and have fun just like people in their 20s do.
- Really? - Where's that club?
Is it a lounge bar?
- In any club. - Where's that club?
There are lounge bars like a club.
They're like a bar until midnight, and then turns into a club.
- Really? - It's different from before.
Why are you all pretending you haven't been to a club?
- I haven't been to a club before. - Me, neither.
- Me, neither. - Is that true?
- I'll take you there next time. - I don't want to go to a club.
- Let's all go together. - She shouldn't go there.
(Gook Jin is worried.)
Take Wan Sun to a club some time.
Please take me to a club.
(A club helps them become a couple.)
You enjoy having fun at clubs at the age of 47.
I'm sorry for saying this, but you're called "Club Lover" lately.
(Kyu Hyun is straightforward.)
Kyu Hyun.
- Kyu Hyun. - I'm just...
There's a rumour you passed out in the bathroom.
(Every club lover has the same experience.)
I heard a lot of celebrities...
ask you about clubs and about how to make a booking.
Do you go to clubs where young people go to?
- Yes. - There are clubs for old people.
- You don't go there, right? - The clubs for people at our age.
- Clubs like "1975". - Do you go there?
The club I often go to is where many young people...
What's the name of the club?
I go to "Club Octagon" often.
(Kyu Hyun laughs at the name of the club he knows.)
Aren't you old enough to go to "Don't Tell Mama"?
(Aren't you old enough to go to a nightclub for old people?)
It's not a good place any more.
- "Tunnel", "Hobak" or "Gukilgwan". - It used to be popular.
(They're nightclubs that used to be popular.)
- Which club is your favourite? - I go to "Club Octagon" most often.
- How many times a week do you go? - Wan Sun, have you been there?
- Yes. I have. - You have?
I went there for a work get-together.
- I see. - I went there with my colleagues.
A lot of celebrities go there.
How many times a week do you go to a club?
I don't go to a club every week...
- because it costs a lot. - That's right.
- I don't spend much money on that. - It costs a lot.
- I imagined people drinking beer... - Me, too.
- and dancing. - It's not that kind of club.
- Oh, it's a fancy club. - They serve champagne on a cart.
There are some places where they serve on a cart.
It feels like I'm a manager of a club.
- You know much about clubs. - Right.
I don't mind being considered...
as a club lover through a TV show. I do like going to clubs.
I'm proud of myself for having fun without doing inappropriate things.
Do celebrities call you to ask to go to a club with them?
- Of course, they do. - Do celebrities do that?
Who did you go to a club with?
I went to clubs with a lot of celebrities.
Jee Seok Jin goes to a club with you, right?
I heard he asked you to recommend a nice club.
- Is that so? - He asked him for a recommendation.
- I think it's true. - Please don't get a wrong idea.
Seok Jin said he's very popular in China.
- He's not... - I don't believe it, though.
- that popular in Korea. - That's right.
It doesn't feel real that he's very popular in China...
as I see him on my radio show every day.
Anyway, he said he's a good friend..
- He said it by himself. - Exactly.
with a Chinese star, and he wanted to...
- Did he come to Korea? - go to a club in Korea.
He called me in the afternoon on a Sunday.
"Soo Hong, do clubs open on Sundays?"
I didn't know that, either.
He said, "Could you find a clubs that opens on Sundays?"
"Can you make them open in the afternoon for us?"
- In the afternoon? - That's funny.
- No clubs open in the afternoon. - He asked that all of a sudden.
It's not like I'm working at a club.
But I felt like I should help him,
so I found a club that opens on Sundays.
I called the club and...
I never thought I'd hear about clubs from Soo Hong. He's around my age.
You can call me any time.
I'm the only celebrity who gets a special discount.
- Really? - Yes.
I became like an honorary ambassador for clubs.
The club I got rejected from became really successful.
It was rumoured that the club is so popular they rejected a celebrity.
The managers of the club invited me to the club.
- The one you were rejected from? - Yes.
Did you accept their invitation without pride?
I don't have pride when it comes to clubs.
- But they rejected you. - Why would I feel bad...
when it costs a lot to have fun in a club,
and they offered me free drinks?
So, did Seok Jin go to the club you found for him?
I didn't ask him if he went there,
- but I gave him the information. - I see.
(He successfully found a club that opens on Sundays for Seok Jin.)
You're like a broker.
(He's like a club broker.)
I heard Soo Hong is planning to...
Next year, he'll attend various festivals...
- around the world... - Really?
and become a man who knows how to have fun on a global scale.
- Will you go to Ibiza as well? - Yes.
- I want to go. - Ibiza.
- I heard that Ibiza is nice. - It's a popular destination.
Everyone has taken a break from the cameras.
Soo Yong is taking a break because programmes don't want him.
I've never taken a break in my 25 years of career,
except for the time I was away for the military service.
- That's a good thing. - I'm very grateful.
I've always been in three programmes every week.
That's why I never had a chance to travel abroad.
This year, I went to a festival for the first time in my life.
- It's a wild culture. - Oh.
On a big lawn, music hits your eardrums.
"Play! Play! Play!"
You can't help but jump up and down. It makes you feel alive.
People come together as friends.
I've never imagined a culture like that.
Everyone enjoys the festival.
From then on, I've attended almost all festivals.
- You went to festivals. - I went to all festivals...
I could find.
- He enjoys clubbing. - That's right.
Do you listen to EDM in the car?
While I love the music, listening to it all the time ruined my hearing.
- It causes loss of hearing. - My manager said,
"You often ask me to repeat what I said these days."
"I'm a bit worried."
- "What did you say?" - Go and see an otolaryngologist.
That's why I'm learning how to read lips these days.
(It can be used in clubs, too.)
Because you can't hear words in clubs,
- there's a certain culture. - Do you have to speak loudly?
After you exchange glances, you do this.
(It's club culture.)
You can't carry on a conversation.
You do this. No matter how loudly you shout,
the music will be louder. You can't shout, "You're pretty."
"You're pretty"?
It's a comment you use in nightclubs.
You can have a conversation at nightclubs.
"With how many friends did you come?"
"WT. Pig Mum? I enjoy going there, too."
(Your mum is watching.)
Because Soo Yong never get invited to programmes,
he thought he was suspended from broadcasting stations.
- Well. - You're joking, right?
You didn't really think that, right?
Illegal parking is the only bad thing I've done.
I was fined with 30 dollars.
- You paid the fine on time. - You didn't really think that.
That's how rarely he gets invited to programmes.
Soo Yong is hilarious whenever he visits Radio Star.
He's always a hit. He's so funny.
- I love Radio Star. - He thought he was suspended.
- Don't be discouraged. - Right.
Radio Star and I signed a memorandum of understanding.
Soo Yong, you did this for invitations to Radio Star,
as well as a special programme on the last Chuseok.
Because you answer the calls for invitation half-heartedly,
people misunderstand that you don't want to take the job.
Scriptwriters always tell me...
that my tone makes them wonder if I don't want to take the job.
I thought my tone sounded happy.
- How do you take the call? - It's not like people say,
"My goodness. Thank you!"
- I do that. - Really?
- Soo Hong really does that. - My goodness...
"Hello. I see. It's my time to visit the programme."
"All right."
You should sound welcoming. How do you take the call?
- This is Radio Star. - Yes.
Would you be free to visit the programme?
On which day is the shoot?
The shoot takes place on Wednesday. We would love to have you.
Sure, I'll be there.
- He shouldn't talk like that. - He spoke normally.
It's how I normally speak.
- He has a different style. - However,
you sound like you're depressed.
- I have that image. - Just like you,
I have a low voice.
However, there is fighting spirit in my voice.
There's an image of "Don't mess with me."
However, you only seem depressed.
- You lack enthusiasm. - That's right.
- You lack enthusiasm. - I don't put my guards up.
I willingly take the punches.
"Hit me more."
(That must be why he has dark circles.)
It's no wonder Soo Yong is like that.
Yu Jae Seok used to call him to encourage him...
whenever Soo Yong is in a programme.
- Jae Seok grew tired. - He didn't call Soo Yong...
- after the Chuseok special. - Jae Seok grew tired.
It used to be that whenever I appeared on a programme,
Jae Seok would give me a call the next day.
"Soo Yong, you were hilarious. I think things will get better."
"You'll get invitations from other programmes."
Then, I wouldn't get any invitations.
- I experienced it every year. - Every year.
After this year's Chuseok Special, he didn't give me a call.
Didn't you feel sad that the routine was gone?
No. I think things will get better.
He's encouraging himself.
It's like Pele's Curse.
Jae Seok's calls are like Pele's Curse.
(You were hilarious on Radio Star.)
Wan Sun, who is also in "Flaming Youth"...
tried her hardest to make Susie and Gook Jin fall in love.
Is it true that they dislike the suggestion of a relationship?
I thought Susie and Gook Jin looked good together from the start.
I told Susie outside of the shoot,
"You should have dinner with him."
Is it true that they seemed to dislike the idea?
At first, they only smiled at my suggestion.
Then, they started to look confused.
- Did both of us do that? - That's right.
I realised then...
that I shouldn't push them into a relationship.
That's why I stopped suggesting that they go out at a certain point.
In reality, Susie felt bad...
to see Wan Sun try so hard when she's already dating Gook Jin.
She thought,
"Wan Sun, you can stop now."
- We were dating. - That's how it was.
They were already dating.
When I read an article about their relationship,
I was so happy that I got goosebumps on my neck.
- Usually... - Wasn't it a sense of betrayal?
No, it wasn't.
- I was happy. - It was a sense of betrayal.
It sounds like you felt a sense of betrayal.
- "When I suggested the idea," - It was happy news.
"they got angry and told me to stop."
"I can't believe they were seeing each other already."
He has a strange personality.
He gained fame. Thanks to his strange personality.
- He has the strangest personality. - He's very angry today.
(Please understand.)
The thing is,
I couldn't reveal the news to my friends...
because we hadn't dated for long.
Gook Jin and I decided that it would be better...
not to go public with the relationship.
That's why I didn't tell Wan Sun.
I have a question. It wasn't your decision...
to make your relationship a public knowledge.
However, have you told anyone before the news came out?
- Family members knew. - I see.
Did your mother know?
- Your mother knew, right? - My mother?
I bet she didn't know.
He's not the type to talk about his personal matters.
- It looks like he had told her. - You had told her, right?
Had you told her?
His mother is a family member.
- That's not what I meant. - Do you mean he told your mother?
No.
I bet my mother still hasn't heard the news.
- That's not what I meant. - He hadn't told her.
I am asking because I am curious.
I thought I knew Gook Jin.
How well do you know me?
I see you as someone who never shares his personal matters.
- He doesn't talk before a marriage. - That's right.
He wouldn't have told his mother unless he made that decision.
I want to know if his mother knew before the news came out.
Soo Hong. I told her.
I told her.
(She's touched.)
- My goodness. - Of course. He told his mother.
This is a bit awkward.
Gu Ra, would you tell your mother if you start dating someone?
Yes, I would.
- You would? - If it is a woman I want to marry.
- You don't know that yet. - Why wouldn't I tell my mother?
Let's say the relationship is still fresh.
- It doesn't matter. - Is something annoying you?
I'm in a good mood.
- I'm in a good mood. - I'm scared.
I'm in a good mood.
I feel like you'll punch me.
What I want to say is this.
If Gook Jin had told his mother,
it's because he's planning a future with you.
That's the man I know.
- Okay. - I grew up with him.
I've known him for a long time.
It's at least a de facto relationship.
Soo Hong is hilarious.
(He's satisfied.)
When an article about a relationship gets published,
celebrities in question decide...
- whether to come out in public. - Both parties discuss the matter.
Susie, I heard that...
you didn't contact Gook Jin when the news broke out.
I had a shoot for "Flaming Youth" that day.
I was asleep before the shoot, and the scriptwriter called me.
She said, "I heard that you're getting married."
I asked, "What are you talking about?"
She told me to check the news. There were many articles.
So many reporters were calling my manager.
He told me to contact Gook Jin right away...
and decide what to do.
- The reporters call to verify. - That's right.
I told him that there's no need for a call...
and that we only need to wait.
I knew Gook Jin would take care of it.
I knew he wouldn't harm me.
That's why I waited.
After a while, another article came out.
Gook Jin's agency released a statement...
about how Gook Jin admits to being in a relationship.
That was the article.
I thought to myself, "This is Gook Jin's decision."
- Did your agency know about it? - Of course, not.
- No. - Not even the CEO knew.
They called me because they didn't know how to respond.
I said, "Tell them that we're dating."
Everyone realised then that the two of you were dating.
Why... How did the two of you get caught?
Maybe I should've formulated my question better.
Not even the CEO agency knew.
- No one knew. - How did the reporters find out?
My family members knew.
- I see. - It happened like this.
My aunt heard about the relationship from my dad.
Even though she lives in the US, she was visiting Seoul for a while.
I guess she knew a reporter.
She only answered a question...
and the reporter added more stories to it.
The relationship became known at the right time.
- Seriously. - It was the perfect timing.
You should buy your aunt a nice outfit.
(She contributed the most in revealing the relationship.)
Have the two of you had a dinner at a restaurant?
- We've never done it. - Really?
- Yes. - Where do you go on a date?
- We drive. - Do you go to Pocheon?
They would stand out in Pocheon.
It's even more dangerous in Pocheon.
- We drive. - "I saw Gook Jin and Susie!"
Simply being together...
- makes us happy. - Where do you guys stay?
We drive around and stop by to spend some time by the trees.
I have a question. Your relationship was known in public.
However, the two of you still meet in secret.
You don't go out on dates...
and walk along the stone wall of Deoksugung.
- It would be nice. - That place is a breakup spot.
They say that couples who go there will break up.
- Really? - It's a breakup spot.
Bosingak is another good destination.
The two of you could hold hands and go...
- to Dongdaemun for tteokbokki. - Have you done anything like it?
Doesn't Susie want that?
What I want...
- is a nice walk. - That's right.
- I can take a walk anytime I want. - Walk around Bangbae-dong.
That's why it doesn't have to happen now.
You and Gook Jin should still do it. The weather is quite nice.
(He talks like a weather forecaster.)
The weather is quite nice.
- Have I hurt you in any way? - No, you didn't.
(I'm only envious.)
The two of you can go to a famous restaurant now.
We could go if we wanted to.
However, Gook Jin doesn't like crowded places.
I also don't want to date in open just because people know about us.
We should check the black box to see how they date.
- You don't have a black box, right? - Right.
(Don't worry.)
(Thank goodness.)
Even though Gook Jin doesn't like crowded places,
you must want to meet at such places.
I have no such desires like that any more.
How did Gook Jin meet such an amazing woman?
- I'm so touched. - Really?
She's saying that she doesn't mind meeting at a cramped car,
if it means her man is happy.
Getting to know Gook Jin,
it became my wish to make Gook Jin comfortable and happy.
- That's how I want him to be. - Wow.
She's following Gook Jin's style.
- My goodness. - She's adjusting herself to him.
I don't know how long it'll last.
I say that because Gook Jin is a very peculiar man.
- I... - What nonsense are you spouting?
You said you don't know how long their love will last.
He was talking about her sacrifice.
- I say that because Gook Jin... - He knows Gook Jin well.
was my mentor. I know that he is...
- He's difficult. - That's right.
- He's hard to figure out. - He's a frustrating celebrity.
Sometimes, I want to break him out of his shell.
- He wears sunglasses at a sauna. - Seriously.
- Does he only wear sunglasses? - Yes.
(I want to shield my eyes.)
Gook Jin isn't an easy person to be with.
- He's extraordinary. - However...
You adjusted yourself to him.
- It must be hard. - I can adjust myself to him.
I don't know.
(She's embarrassed.)
He's not frivolous.
- That's why... - He's serious.
I want to let him live in peace,
even though there are parts of him I don't like.
I admire him greatly.
However, I would get frustrated...
- if I have to adjust to him. - The thing is,
I myself don't enjoy going out a lot.
I like cleaning the house and reading books.
Radio Star awaits witness reports.
Please send us a photo of them on a date.
I want to take them to a club.
(Please date in the open so that we can take a photo.)
Listen to this.
Susie cried twice because of Gook Jin.
The first time was when she received a birthday meal from Gook Jin.
The second time was during the act at the dock.
Gook Jin said,
"My Susie, I love you." You cried when you heard it.
My Susie.
I love you.
Why did you cry?
Since the episode aired in November,
- we were already dating. - You were dating.
That's why...
I couldn't help but think about how we've come to be lovers...
after 20 years of knowing each other.
- You thought about the past. - That's why I felt emotional.
Was it the first time he said, "I love you"?
- No, it wasn't. - Had he said that before?
Does he say that often?
- He's very affectionate. - He says the word love?
- Did he say "I love you"? - Really?
- Yes. - Did he say "I love you"? Really?
Why wouldn't he say that?
It's hard to imagine from what we know of Gook Jin.
Perhaps you heard him wrong.
Maybe he said, "I rub you."
"I like you."
What kind of nonsense is "I rub you"?
You became strange.
(He's discouraged.)
I heard that...
Gook Jin calls you "My Susie".
He calls me by many endearments.
He usually calls me by my name.
I call her by her name.
- Doesn't he call you SJ? - SJ?
That's Super Junior.
(Hello. We are Super Junior.)
When Susie and Gook Jin were keeping their relationship a secret,
they almost got caught by the staff of "Flaming Youth".
Gook Jin had to call Susie...
during the shoot of "Flaming Youth".
- He entered the number from memory. - That was close.
- He did it without thinking. - That was close.
- Call Susie. - Give her a call.
- Give her a call. - Should I give her a call?
You should call her.
(He refuses out of shyness.)
(He enters the number from memory.)
During the shoot for a special episode in Hong Kong,
Susie almost used a secret nickname for Gook Jin.
It startled her badly.
- What's the nickname? - I'll talk about that nickname...
when I write a book in my 80s.
It's a secret between us.
It seems like you'll write a lot of books.
I might die before you reach 80. Please tell me.
(Read the book.)
Is it "Jjini"?
It's not a childish nickname. It's pretty common.
- It's nothing funny. - That's right.
(She winks.)
(They exchange a sign.)
What was that?
(They feel faint at the display of affection.)
I only flick my fingers to play with marbles.
Susie has always been passionate.
- In my opinion, - Did you see what they did?
Susie is usually more affectionate.
She's holding back for Gook Jin's sake today.
I'm not usually like that.
What are you two doing?
Die! Die! Die!
(They pretend to be a couple.)
(They give a display of affection.)
(She's embarrassed.)
Wan Sun, on the day...
Susie received a birthday meal from Gook Jin,
you received a humble birthday meal from Kim Kwang Kyu.
Later on,
(He's hesitant.)
- you also received a thong. - Yes.
Whose idea was it?
Was the idea Kwang Kyu's or the production team's?
Members of "Flaming Youth" chose Secret Santa in Hong Kong.
When I'm abroad,
I always buy underwear.
As a souvenir?
I don't go shopping when I'm in Korea.
That's why I had thought about shopping for underwear...
in Hong Kong.
When asked what I would like from my Secret Santa,
I said, "Underwear."
I never said that I wanted a thong.
It was Kwang Kyu's idea.
Kwang Kyu and I picked it together.
(He's helpful.)
Gook Jin, did you also buy a thong for Susie?
- No. - Are you sure?
- He wasn't my Secret Santa. - I see.
I don't even buy my own underwear.
(He makes a sudden confession.)
- Then, who buys it? - What?
Who buys it?
- His mother buys it. - Does his mother buy it?
Gook Jin likes comfort.
- What? - He likes to go commando.
- Really? - He sometimes does it.
At home, he only wears a tracksuit.
- I like tracksuits. - He only wears a tracksuit.
- He doesn't wear underwear. - When Soo Yong pulls down...
his trousers...
(He's laughing.)
He's cute.
- Soo Hong. - Yes?
You received a malicious comment for the first time in 26 years.
- I heard that it made you happy. - He lacked attention before.
All celebrities would agree that disinterest is the worst.
That's right. Even an obituary is better than nothing.
Right. What?
- What did you say? - It's a saying.
You didn't know he was this malicious, did you?
I'm serious. It's a famous saying.
"An obituary is the only article celebrities and politicians hate."
- It's a saying. - Are you sure it's famous?
It's a famous saying among politicians in Yeouido.
Don't be so frustrating.
- Was I frustrating? - Of course, you were.
You don't know anything.
Gu Ra doesn't let anything pass.
- You seem very angry today. - I'm not angry.
- It's just that you're ignorant. - Are you angry at me?
You don't know anything.
Shall we take a break to calm Gu Ra down?
(I'm not angry.)
I don't think many people dislike me.
- It's an advantage I have. - There's no reason to hate you.
However, it's not like people like me.
- There's no reason to like you. - I don't have that.
I have no colour.
People neither hate you or like you.
It shouldn't be that way since I'm a celebrity.
Those whom people hate become successful.
(It's Gu Ra.)
I'm thankful for the malicious comments.
They show the public's interest in me.
- What were the comments about? - I was called a mummy's boy...
and someone who doesn't act his age.
Someone said I'm having a midlife crisis.
- I don't mind those comments, - Okay.
but I hope they wouldn't attack my family.
My mother said...
- certain things on my behalf. - She's in a programme.
It hurts me to see her get attacked.
Before she agreed to be in a programme, she said,
"I can endure anything for my son."
"It's okay." I called her and said,
"Don't read the comments."
She said, "Soo Hong, I'm fine."
"I'm fine as long as people don't criticise you."
I hope people won't criticise my family.
Other than that, I don't mind the malicious comments.
Celebrities can endure them.
I wrote a comment on an article about Soo Hong.
- What did you write? - What did you write?
"I hate Soo Hong."
- My goodness. - I read that comment.
- I was a bit bothered by it. - "I hate Soo Hong."
I reported the comment.
- Really? - Yes.
It's okay.
Would you be okay, Soo Yong?
Please forgive me.
I guess we could reach an agreement.
- Let's reach an agreement. - It'll be the talk of the town.
(I see.)
Let's talk about Gook Jin and Susie.
Our writers looked up all the hints you dropped.
- Last year... - You're like an investigator.
At the end of last year, when you were already dating...
during the SBS's award ceremony,
Susie asked, "Gook Jin, is this a set-up?"
Some say that was...
- a sign of some sort. - Did you agree upon that?
- Did we conspire? - "Is this a set-up?"
We never discuss what we'll say or do in public.
Why did you say that?
I was hoping it'd be funny.
- You were already dating. - For fun and...
- It's only fun for him. - I joked about because...
- I thought I knew what he'd say. - What did you say?
I said no.
He just...
(He's getting shocked often today.)
A lot of people have been asking me.
Is this a set-up?
(Are we making it up?)
Be honest.
- It's not. - What?
(She's flustered at his answer.)
It's not a set-up.
- Actually... - Everything's natural.
(Her chin dropped.)
(She's extremely engrossed.)
So many people are hoping it's real.
We can't tell what will happen.
(He's flustered by her direct comments.)
You're going all out today.
(You're so cheeky.)
- We said that for fun. - It was like a reality show...
live, in front of the public.
Was it fun?
(He's frowning.)
Was it?
Don't frown.
I was just asking. Was it fun?
Do you think they deceived the public?
- They didn't lie. - Exactly.
I knew Gook Jin had guts, but that was a tough thing to say.
If and when they get married,
why don't you Soo Yong and Kim Kyung Min be his best men?
I'll be the flower child.
Be part of the ceremony with Kyung Min.
Kyung Min has some ideal outfits for the job.
Be the flower children.
(That would be perfect.)
- I have a suggestion. - What?
You're both well-known celebrities in Korea.
Have a traditional ceremony.
- We haven't decided... - We could...
hit the sole of his feet and things like that.
I would really love that.
(I'll organise that.)
Last July, Gook Jin was a guest on Susie's radio show.
Do you have a co-host?
- No. - It's just her.
- That was before. - She never had guests.
- But Gook Jin came on once. - Yes.
The two of them exchanged some sweet comments.
The first song on the playlist was "I Can't Live Without You".
It was Gook Jin's recommendation.
A listener said, "Gook Jin, May 20 is Susie's birthday."
"Who would you like to spend that day with?"
Susie said, "Just say you'll spend it with me."
Gook Jin responded, "Yes. I think I will."
When Susie asked, "Do you like any of my songs?"
He replied, "Do You Know How I Feel".
(He looks pleased.)
(He's romantic.)
These two dropped hints everywhere and we didn't get them.
- We thought it was fake. - We had no idea.
- Right. - I hinted so much.
(I tried so hard.)
"Do you still not get it?"
"You people are so foolish."
Did anyone else on the show notice?
- No. - No one did.
I dropped so many hints.
Even the producer didn't know.
- It's not easy to date on a show. - That's true.
That's why we didn't think much of it.
As for Gook Jin's personality,
if he liked someone, he wouldn't show it on TV.
- We also... - He just wouldn't.
thought it wouldn't be true.
He told me this long ago.
"Soo Hong, we're professionals."
(He winced.)
"When working,"
"don't do anything that will stop us from asking personal questions."
"If you do that,"
"it would be a lie."
"You can't ask if she's dating..."
"or if you're her boyfriend."
"Don't get into such relationships."
That's what he said.
(That was almost an attack.)
Why didn't you go public?
(He almost took the bait.)
- Why did you say that? - Can't I?
(I made them laugh.)
Let me ask something that a lot of viewers want to know.
What are your plans from now on?
I think... You just have to wait and see.
- Wait and see? - Yes.
We're old enough.
What about marriage? I'm asking because...
- that's the usual progression. - It is.
I'm following the general pattern of questioning.
Okay.
Was that weird?
(He's at it again.)
I asked what anyone would ask.
It's not a weird question.
- Don't frown. - What?
(He has a wide smile.)
What will happen?
- It's all up to Gook Jin. - What will happen?
He'll deal with everything.
Knowing what Gook Jin's like,
now that their relationship is known to public,
they'll have to get married.
I think they will.
You two are so much sweeter in real life.
(That was random.)
I really mean that.
Thank you.
Gook Jin, more than anyone else,
would not go public unless he's really serious.
He'd only do it if he was sure that she was his destiny.
That's the Gook Jin I know.
He loves you with all his heart.
- I swear. - But...
You're adorable together.
Don't.
I'll kill you if you say anything.
Do you want to punch him?
(He sighs heavily.)
Soo Hong, can you tell if you'd...
get along with a woman just by holding hands?
- Really? - Really?
- Hold Wan Sun's hand. - Hold mine.
I have sweaty palms.
It is okay.
Can you squeeze it hard.
(He's done this before.)
He's a true clubber.
I like it. Do you?
(He's so sly.)
- What can you tell by this? - What are you doing?
- He's a player. - Try to push my arm down.
Push my arm down.
- Like this. - Push downward.
That's the o-ring test.
- It won't go down. - It won't go down.
- We're a match. - What's that?
Don't you know the o-ring test you do with your fingers?
You try.
Push it down hard.
(His arm goes down.)
That means it's a bad match.
You're weaker and my arm went down.
Can you feel the difference when you hold hands?
I decided to trust my body.
We should trust our instincts a bit more...
and rely less on backgrounds or how well a person can talk.
We spend too much time on that.
On rational aspects.
Those are useless.
The hands make you feel warm and you don't want to shy away.
You eat together and you felt comfortable.
Based on experience, however pretty she is,
if you feel uncomfortable after a meal, your body's rejecting her.
- We were in a close vicinity. - He has a point.
- I get it. - I really...
I know what you mean.
Do you think you get along well?
His hand is warm when I hold it.
That's the most important.
- Isn't mine warm? - You're so direct.
- Aren't the hands... - Because Gook Jin's quiet.
Aren't your hands usually warm?
- No. It depends. - Does it change?
Does your arm stay up if you like her?
There's a medical explanation.
- Let me see. - It won't go down.
- It's the o-ring test. - It won't budge.
It won't... Hey!
Do you work out?
Why did you ruin my chances? I was getting somewhere.
Get back to your seat.
Die, die, die.
Was that a skit?
I haven't seen one like it in years.
(It's as if we went back a few decades.)
Your arm went down right away.
- I was keeping my arm up. - Soo Yong rarely gets embarrassed.
- That was so old-school. - What's wrong?
I feel embarrassed.
He has changed.
I've known Soo Hong for over 25 years.
- He never grabbed a woman's hand. - I didn't.
- He changed in recent years. - It's because I don't have a woman.
(There aren't enough hands to grab.)
- Then... - You changed recently.
You just held Soo Hong's hand. How did it feel?
- Well... - The feeling.
It was sweaty.
It is okay now that I wiped it.
- He just goes for it. - He's enthusiastic.
They're the Maltese couple.
The Chihuahuas, the Maltese.
Soo Hong, let's keep going.
Since you already held Wan Sun's hand,
let's see how you dance in a club.
Then, let's see you dance together.
- Let's do this. - That was so random.
We just held hands.
We talked about clubbing.
We're known to ask people to dance out of the blue.
- Soo Hong. - We just held hands.
- Play some music. - Just dance.
Let them deal with it.
- Come here. - Me?
She's the expert.
- We take it easy at first. - Okay.
(How to get a date at a club.)
First you go like this. Then, make eye contact.
(Look away but move in quickly.)
He's moving in.
Now, you talk to her.
After a while...
You're pretty.
(She's interested.)
- Hey. - What now?
Did someone pull your sweater down?
(They're giggling.)
(They like his humour.)
Once you befriend her,
you can start moving your lower body a lot more.
Hey.
Is that dance popular these days?
- You have beautiful eyes. - Thank you.
You're not wearing any makeup, are you?
You did?
(My goodness.)
I couldn't tell at all.
Let's dance.
(It's time to seal the deal.)
If you're tired, sit on my lap.
Are you okay? Do you feel tired?
(Soo Hong has some outstanding skills.)
- Soo Hong has a way with words. - But...
Soo Hong's techniques...
He's good.
You don't seem like you hang out with young people.
- It's not that kind of club. - You know...
He used to be so lame at things like this.
He was...
- I used to get stressed. - Right.
- My ears turned red. - Soo Hong...
Now, I get upset if no one lets me take charge.
- Okay. - So, Soo Hong.
You used to say you liked women who tripped up often,
but now it's the opposite.
What do you mean by that?
- I meant... - Do explain.
It brought out my paternal side.
- If she fell over... - You wanted to protect her.
If she had thin ankles and she tripped up, I'd help her up...
- A child-like woman. - Yes.
- A child-like woman? - Someone like Susie.
- A child-like woman. - Now, I changed my mind.
All the jumping around seems to have ruined my knees.
I actually went to see a doctor because they hurt.
How much did you jump around?
If the woman trips up...
and she takes me down with her on the stairs, it's dangerous.
- She has to be healthy. - Healthy is good.
- So... - A healthy woman.
Someone with a healthy mind who doesn't hold back.
Wan Sun said that...
the reason you're still single is because you have high standards.
When I talk to people of our age who are still single,
it's usually because they want more or expect too much.
- That's true. - So...
if their standards aren't met, they don't take it further.
That's why they stay single for long.
I'm not like that for me.
I never cared about a woman's background,
environment or knowledge.
I once met a lawyer, and she tried to lecture me.
I said, "So there must be a precedent."
She said, "No. You shouldn't say that."
She said that to everything I said.
On a date?
I really don't care about her background whatsoever.
I'm just looking for a woman I can love.
I do have high standards.
I say that for the next woman I'm going to date.
If I say I have low standards,
that I'll date anyone who wears a skirt,
- Then... - she'd be so hurt.
- I say I have high standards. - I see.
I have high standards, but all the women I dated...
had perfect jobs before,
but they quit shortly after we got together.
- Do you want her to work? - Every time?
Yes. That one, too.
- Was it too much pressure? - No.
- If she goes... - She went all-in.
- It never ended well for me. - That's the bottom line.
That's the bottom line.
- What? - That's how you think.
You contradict yourself.
Why would you say that?
You want her to work and show interest in you.
- That's not that easy. - That's not what I meant.
- I didn't mean it. I take it back. - It's tough.
(I take it back.)
- You're still indecisive. - "It's tough."
You're so consistent.
Let me summarise. Only Gu Ra misunderstood.
No, look. I've been through a lot.
- Do you have to say that? - Right?
I really want to take Gu Ra clubbing one day.
- He needs to open up. - Do it.
- To learn? - There are opportunities.
You're of similar height.
- Your fame... - No.
- Look, I... - You look happier now.
- We can... - Wait and see.
I'll date like crazy once my son goes to college.
I said so already.
- Did you? - Yes.
I even told my son.
"Once you move out, I'll go on 'We Got Married'."
- I told him that. - Oh.
He doesn't have to worry. I'm not like that.
Give me a call.
My son's in his last year of middle school,
so I'm holding myself back.
Let's just get along with our own lives.
- I want Gu Ra to be happy. - I'm incredibly happy.
I'm incredibly happy.
(His emptiness and loneliness echo in the studio.)
- He sat like this. - That's because...
- I felt... - I just...
I felt sorry for him.
I could tell he's shuddering out of loneliness.
I wasn't shuddering.
(The shuddering of loneliness)
He's actually so cold.
Back when we were both struggling rookies,
he asked, "How much did SBS pay you when you moved?"
He kept asking me that.
It's been dozens of years and he still asks that.
I wondered why someone I barely know...
would ask me that.
(He exposes Gu Ra's dark past.)
- Do you remember Kim Jeong Wook? - Gu Ra had a dark past.
In Busan.
Kim... Yes, I know him. Your friend.
- He's my friend. - Yes.
I hear that whenever you visit Busan,
- he treats you. - Right.
- What's going on? - Wait.
- Is it payback time? - Are you trying to get him back?
- "I know your weaknesses, too." - Yes. It's him.
This is what happened.
I was with a group of friends who live in Busan.
Then I saw Gu Ra and his friend...
- drinking in a corner. - Excuse me.
We were with a few women.
- I don't remember that. - Is this...
Is this a competition to look less pitiful?
Do I look okay? How am I doing in this race?
Soo Yong, you judge. Who do you think is more pitiful?
Soo Hong's doing well today.
He does over half the talking.
- They asked... - I said 10 percent, you said 50.
I didn't say that much. Don't keep me in check.
- Is that your complaint? - I'm stuck at 10 percent.
That's my on-screen time.
(I won't back down now.)
(Next week)
Soo Yong is finally fighting back.
(His humour gets a boost.)
Soo Hong got a Brazilian wax done.
(The warm-up's over. This is real.)
Who cares?
He's sly.
- It sparkles. - Will you stop it?
He's hitting on her during the show.
I thought I should make him smile again.
(It's Susie's honest story.)
- This is a special day. - Susie's serious.
This show is for you, Gook Jin.
(Gook Jin's surprise event!)
I had no idea that he was so romantic!
("Radio Star on Fire Part Two" will be aired next week.)
