Happy to be together on "Happy Together"!
- Hello. / - Hello.
We have some great guests
who have come to visit us today.
Myungsoo, why don't you introduce them
as the award winner?
Thank you. They watched others make it,
so they grabbed the opportunity
to become stars themselves and they finally made it.
Today's special episode is "We Should Have Been Nicer".
- What does that mean? / - Come on!
- "We Should Have Been Nicer". / - Yes.
We would've been nicer to them
if we had known they'd become popular celebrities.
We could've said a word of encouragement or
treated them better.
We should've given them an award.
There are many who fall in this category.
Let's welcome the celebrities
of the special episode, "We Should Have Been Nicer".
Lee Chunsoo, Hwang Chiyeul, Moon Seyoon,
Lee Yooyoung, and Yezi.
We should've been nicer.
- We should've been nicer. / - My goodness.
- Welcome. / - Hello.
(We should've been nicer)
(Who in the world are you?)
("We Should Have Been Nicer" Special begins now!)
- Hello. / - Welcome.
- All right. / - I really don't know who they are.
- Yes. / - Like you said,
Myungsoo isn't familiar
- with a few of our guests. / - Yes.
You made a huge mistake. You'll be shocked in a minute.
- Are they rising stars? / - Chunsoo isn't one.
What are you talking about?
He's rising now in variety shows.
I understand that, but still.
Chunsoo has a perfect face for variety shows.
- That's right. / - His face makes the cut.
He has a perfect face for comedian.
Have you started already?
He could be a KBS comedian.
- My goodness. / - You can start with "Gag Concert".
First of all, please introduce yourself.
I was once a vocal trainer that had to make a living,
but now I have become popular.
I'm Hwang Chiyeul, the passionate singer.
(Hwang Chiyeul, the passionate singer)
Welcome, Chiyeul. Who's next?
I was soccer's bad boy.
(I'm embarrassed to say it)
- Now I have retired / - Okay.
- and become a family man. / - I see.
I'm Lee Chunsoo and I plan to appear on variety shows.
Welcome, Chunsoo.
(Chunsoo, a new variety show personality)
Could you introduce yourself?
I'm an actress who just debuted last year.
I was in the movies "Last Spring",
"The Treacherous" and "It's Him".
- I am Lee Yooyoung, a new actress. / - All right.
(Lee Yooyoung, the monstrous new movie star)
- She's finally here. / - Hello.
I'm Yezi, once an unknown idol,
who has come back with the song, "Crazy Dog".
- All right. / - Yes!
I love what you said. "Crazy Dog" sounds good.
- May I? / - Of course.
Hello, I debuted 13 years ago
with the line, "Hey, you."
(I have only said "Hey, you" for 13 years)
I'm Moon Seyoon, who now wants
to move forward as the Eating Master.
(Moon Seyoon the Eating Master will begin his journey)
- We've invited five amazing guests. / - Yes.
I believe at least one of them
- will make it big this year. / - I agree.
- Not all five of you will be stars. / - Okay.
- I think one of you can make it. / - They are already.
- Myungsoo doesn't know them. / - Usually, one guest
- receives attention after the show. / - Yes.
- Not all of them can be popular. / - Really?
This is a competition.
- Let's check out their talents. / - Who do you think
- What? / - will receive the least attention?
I don't know about the two women.
(I don't know about the two women)
- I haven't seen your movies. / - I see.
First this man became popular with his enchanting voice
after struggling for nine years as an unknown singer.
Like he said, he began his career as a vocal trainer.
Then, one exposure on a variety show
changed his life completely.
How can someone's life change so much
after a single show?
- I sang just one song. / - Yes, it took him one song.
- He sang, "Confession". / - That's right.
When he sang "Confession", we saw a handsome guy
who had a great voice and amazing singing skills.
Everyone was shocked.
Until last year, around this time of the year,
- What were you doing? / - I was teaching students.
- You were just a teacher. / - Yes.
- Was that in January 2015? / - Yes,
because this is the season for college admissions.
- That's right. / - It's those times.
I was passionately planning with my students
about how they should sing.
So you were concerned about
the future of your students.
Yes, I also consulted many of them telling them,
"You should go to this school"
or "You can't make this school".
- That's what I told them. / - What were
your New Year's resolution last year, then?
At that time, I didn't have enough money.
- I see. / - I wasn't young and had no money.
My parents wanted me to come back home
to get married.
- I was so stressed. / - Was your dream to be a singer?
- I did debut nine years ago. / - That's right.
That was Chiyeul, a new singer. Give him a big hand.
(He debuted as Chiyeul in 2006)
(He released a song)
(With an odd title, "Don't Eat Alone")
I'm Hwang Chiyeul, the vocal of a team named Wednesday.
(Even after his debut,)
(He kept on singing)
(Thousands and thousands)
(Of songs passionately)
(But)
(Nothing seemed)
(To go his way)
(Here is a side-note)
(Edited segment from "Yoon Dohyun's Love Letter")
(He showed off his break dancing on the show, too)
(But he broke the studio set)
(He's getting back up)
(He then showed off a powerful dance)
(But he also broke a camera)
(I broke everything)
He's making me nervous, so I can't watch him anymore.
He's scaring me.
Do you want to try again?
(He shot the whole thing again thanks to Dohyun)
Why don't you try it again?
(This was Chiyeul when he was younger)
He's been on every single variety show last year.
- I heard you went to China, too. / - Yes.
I have a Chinese variety show shooting
in my schedule.
- It'll begin in February. / - That's amazing.
I don't mean to boast, but...
I am also the model for an electronic product in China.
- Are you in a commercial? / - I am.
(He's signed as a model for a Chinese commercial)
That is impressive.
You are amazing.
Well, you look a lot like Heo Kyunghwan.
- Do you hear that often? / - Yes.
- They have a similar accent, too. / - Yes.
I am from Gyeongsang-do, too.
You guys really look alike.
"I was about to do that."
- You two are similar. / - Yes, they are.
- They are similar. / - They are.
- They have a similar accent. / - Yes.
When people from Gyeongsang-do try to speak normally,
- we sound like this. / - Yes.
- Is this how it is? / - Our accent changes to this.
- Can you speak like a Seoulite? / - It's hard.
I can.
- Could you give it a try? / - Please show us.
I speak without an accent when I talk one-on-one.
- I do it without realizing it. / - Show us.
- Hey, Chiyeul. / - Hello.
Have you eaten?
(He still has that awkward accent)
(And a strange "s" pronunciation)
- That's still awkward. / - I can't do it with a man.
I should talk with a woman.
- Please talk with Yooyoung. / - Okay.
- How do you do? / - Hello.
- Have you... / - Where are you...
- Where am I from? / - Yes, where are you from?
I am from Gyeongsang-do.
(I am from Gyeongsang-do)
(I'm proud of my hometown)
- What's wrong? / - You still have the accent.
We just talked briefly with Chiyeul.
- Now let's move on / - He's a funny guy.
to Chunsoo.
(Lee Chunsoo, a new variety show personality)
You said it yourself, but you used to be
a bad boy on the field.
Many people say that I was.
Don't you think so?
I was just a passionate player.
Is that so?
(I just played passionately)
How long has it been?
You have been a professional soccer player
for about 13 years, right?
I began my career right after the 2002 World Cup.
- So it's been 13 years. / - Yes.
It would have been odd to suddenly retire
after such a long time.
I'm now unemployed.
- Don't you have a job? / - And I am not making money.
I'm unemployed now, so my wife is the bread-winner.
- And I... / - May I ask what your wife does?
She's a professor.
She lectures in universities.
(They got married in 2013)
(His wife is smart and beautiful)
(She is an instructor who used to be a model)
- She lectures in universities. / - I see.
She lectures in universities.
- And I... / - Wait.
Why did you suddenly use honorifics?
- Are you talking about your wife? / - She is my wife.
When you have no work to do, what's your day like?
I take care of Jooeun, my child.
I wake her up at 8 a.m.
This makes sense because he doesn't work.
- You don't have kids. / - This is understandable.
- I wake Jooeun up at 8 a.m. / - Okay.
- Do you wake up at 8 a.m., too? / - That's right.
What time did you get up when you were a soccer player?
I woke up around 12 p.m.
Did you really wake up at 12 p.m.?
- He's no longer a soccer player. / - Yes.
I used to begin my day by eating lunch.
- Now, I wake up at 8 a.m. and eat. / - Okay.
Jooeun needs to go to kindergarten, so I wake her up.
Then we'd eat and my wife would leave with us.
I'd need to dress Jooeun.
- But four-year-olds do not listen. / - You're right.
She wants to choose her outfit.
We fight over her clothes in the morning,
then it takes about 20 minutes to settle on a hairpin.
I'd put a hairpin on her hair, but she'd take it off.
I ask, "Jooeun, what's wrong?"
She'd answer, "I don't like you, Dad."
- That's what she does. / - She takes after you.
"I don't like this color."
I'd get her on the bus
- at 09:30 a.m. / - For her kindergarten?
Yes, most of them come around at 09:30 a.m.
After Jooeun leaves,
I love watching dramas or variety shows.
So I'd turn on the TV and start cleaning the house.
- Do you like morning soap operas? / - Yes, and then...
Of course, today is our shooting.
But if it wasn't for us, what would you be doing today?
My wife was thrilled to hear that
I was going to be on the show.
(She was thrilled)
I'm finally making money.
She told me to hurry up and leave.
She told me to do well. If it wasn't for this show...
What time is it now?
- It's probably about 2 p.m. / - It's around 2 p.m.
I'd be taking a nap as I wait for Jooeun.
(I would be taking a nap)
Isn't it nice?
- I feel closer to him now. / - That's a happy moment.
- I'm happy. / - I agree.
- You look content. / - Yes.
- You didn't look so before. / - I gained weight.
- Did you gain weight? / - Yes.
Do you not work out?
I'm not working out at the moment.
Because...
Wait a second.
- You looked really sad. / - Chunsoo.
Well, I...
Yooyoung and Yezi can't...
How come you're not working out?
Yooyoung and Yezi
- can't stop laughing. / - He's speaking like a victim.
It was a little bit odd.
No, I have been training all my life.
So I'm resting at home.
He's finishing off all his sentences
with the word, "resting".
He keeps on resting.
For a long time, he's lived a regulated life,
working out, and worrying about soccer matches.
- It's only been a few months. / - Of course.
Wasn't your singing a more popular topic than
your retirement?
- He was on "The King of Mask Singer". / - Yes.
How did you end up there?
I did appear on variety shows
from time to time before I retired.
- Yes. / - I met you, then
- and I met them, too. / - Yes.
I felt that I was built for variety shows.
I mean, just the way I look.
- Wait... / - You could think so.
You can begin your career as a barbarian with Kim Jiho.
(He has the perfect face)
You can start with Jiho.
What are you talking about?
When he used to be a soccer player,
you have a story
about his looks.
(Is he really)
(Going to)
(Mention that?)
Well, you know what we're talking about.
I think I know what it is.
- What is it? / - There was a worldwide vote.
- Was it a joke? / - It was for the worst looking guys.
(A vote to pick the ugliest soccer player)
On the other hand,
he was voted online as the ugliest soccer players.
- He was placed second. / - You're right.
Wait, who was third place?
I don't remember, but first place was Ronaldinho.
First place was Ronaldinho
and Chunsoo came in second.
(He was voted as the second ugliest soccer player)
Chunsoo came in second.
Who was third place?
It was Tevez.
(The third place was Carlos Tevez)
(I beat Tevez)
- That's funny. / - He beat Tevez.
My goodness.
Ronaldinho, Lee Chunsoo, and Tevez.
- That was perfect. / - Oh, my.
Anyway,
I liked how my image became positive
after appearing on variety shows.
What is good about appearing on variety shows?
I used to give a strong impression
when I was on the field.
But people said that I looked like a good guy
when I was on variety shows.
People thought I looked honest.
He's analyzing himself.
Right. I saw those comments online.
You analyzed yourself rather than people
around you telling you this.
I looked at online comments.
- Online comments? / - Do you look at them often?
I look at online comments.
What kind of comments did you get before you retired?
I'd get comments like,
"You have a big mouth."
"Stop complaining and just play."
Much of the comments were related to my mouth.
- Then what happened? / - After I went on TV shows,
people said I looked honest.
(He loves coming off as honest)
He's praising himself.
What a unique guy.
He loves being seen as an honest man.
Did you write them yourself?
- You have seen the comments. / - How would I know?
- I haven't read the comments. / - Oh, dear.
I should read the comments.
Please write those comments.
- Please, everyone. / - All right.
We are just briefly talking
to each one of our guests.
Our next guest is Yooyoung.
Like we said before,
she received many awards last year.
- I did. / - How many awards did you get?
I won six awards.
(Six awards)
Did you get six new actress awards?
- Yes. / - That's awesome.
But Myungsoo has never heard of you.
You're too harsh.
Is Myungsoo just ignorant? What's going on?
That means she won almost all the awards.
Where did you get those six awards?
She's amazing.
I won the best actress award last year at the Milan
- International Film Festival. / - Best actress award?
At the Milan International Film Festival?
She was the first Korean to receive that award.
The 52nd Daejong Film Festival.
The new actress award goes to
Lee Yooyoung of "Last Spring". Congratulations.
Lee Yooyoung played the role
of an abused daughter in the film "Last Spring".
(This is six days later)
(At the 36th Blue Dragon Film Awards)
Congratulations.
(She received another award)
(For her other movie, "The Treacherous")
(She's the rising actress who won Korean film awards)
She played Joseon period's most well-known gisaeng.
She received praise for her great acting.
I received an award last week for "Last Spring".
I never thought that I would receive another award
for my role in, "The Treacherous".
I didn't know you had won that many awards, either.
You are still a new actress.
(Why do you feel new to us with that many accolades?)
Even people who watched my movies
do not recognize me when they see me.
- Do they? / - Yes, when I'd go
to the theaters to watch my movie,
I'd think, "What if people"
- "recognize who I am?" / - Okay.
I went and watched movies in the theater,
but nobody paid any attention.
You went to watch your movie and nobody recognized you.
- Yes. / - Even after the movie?
They didn't recognize me.
I took a ballroom dance class at school.
- Okay. / - We partnered up
and we took turns dancing with each other.
I was dancing the tango with my classmate
and he kept looking at me and finally he asked,
"Are you Lee Yooyoung by any chance?"
It was almost the end of the semester.
- The end of the semester? / - Yes.
They had no idea and some girls at school once said,
"Let's go watch the film 'It's Him'."
"I heard it's good."
They didn't know I was in that movie.
- Really? / - Yes.
Maybe it's because of your makeup.
- I watched "It's Him". Were you... / - Pardon?
(Jaeseok does not recognize me)
- Yes, I was. / - I had no idea.
You came here because you knew.
- She was right there. / - I saw it.
(She played Sieun in "It's Him" in 2015)
Will you?
("The Treacherous", 2015)
Embrace each other.
(She played an alluring character)
(She played Minkyeong in "Last Spring" in 2014)
About the field outside,
I heard everything was new.
- That was you. / - Yes.
First of all,
I believe that you need
to show more of your personality.
- She debuted last year. / - Excuse me,
but this isn't an audition.
- You're... / - You're discouraging her.
Are you judging her acting skills?
- Her sweater is bright though. / - Yes.
I heard that good actors don't show their own character
so that they can play more diverse roles.
- Is that right? / - Yes.
From what I have observed,
- she's a genuine person. / - Is she?
- Why don't you be genuine? / - You're a hypocrite.
You were genuine on the soccer field.
I heard that a lot of her classmates are famous.
She graduated from Korea National University of Arts.
Her classmates include Park Sodam and Kim Goeun.
- Wow. / - You're friends, right?
Yes, Sodam, Goeun and I entered college
in the same year.
- Really? / - Yes, it's fascinating.
They became famous earlier than you.
Did you ever feel like you had to catch up to them?
- Did you have a hard time? / - No, not at all.
- Were you ever jealous? / - No.
- Tell us the truth. / - Okay.
At school, they both used to be just cute,
ordinary students. We used to hang out together.
But seeing them appear in films as real actors
fascinated me. I'm proud of them.
- I see. / - They motivated me as well.
- May I ask how old you are? / - Why do you ask?
- I'm 27. / - You're 27.
Is it Lee Yooyoung you like today?
I have always liked her.
You have always liked her?
(I don't fall for someone that easily)
Have you ever walked outside to see
if people recognize you?
- Do you go to Hongdae? / - No one does that anymore.
- But still... / - I still do that.
You're not that young, either.
- You're 40 years old. / - I'm 38.
Gosh. You have never done that?
I'm confident that people wouldn't recognize me.
(People wouldn't recognize me)
(I feel comfortable)
- They wouldn't. / - You're genuine.
You're such a genuine person.
Seriously.
In my case,
when I'm on the streets,
I always make eye contacts with people passing by,
- just in case... / - Really?
Why don't you tell the rest of the story later?
- You don't want to hear it now? / - No.
(We never asked you)
I don't think I'll be able to hear the rest.
I'm too busy.
- Sorry. / - I'll tell you later.
- Do you want to hear it later? / - Send me an e-mail.
- Okay. / - An e-mail will do.
- Why do you make more work? / - I'm sorry.
Up next, this person
became famous overnight with "Crazy Dog".
This is Yezi, the rapper.
- Crazy Dog. / - Yes!
- Do you know it? / - Yes.
- I have heard it. / - You were the winner of
- "Unpretty Rapstar". / - That's right.
- I didn't win. / - You didn't?
(So you don't know me)
As you know, Yezi is a member of
- the girl group, Fiestar. / - Yes.
- You debuted about four years ago. / - Yes.
We're not rookies anymore, so we're worried.
- That's right. / - Yes.
(Fiestar debuted in 2012 with their single, "Vista")
(The members include Cao Lu, Jei,)
(Linzy, Hyemi and Yezi)
(The rapper, Yezi is the youngest member)
(She can be graceful)
(And chic)
(She used to be cute)
(And charismatic, but)
(She has changed)
(So much)
(She appeared on a female rap competition show)
(She created a buzz with her unique lyrics)
Then what are Crazy Dog and a Strong Character?
- Strong Character. / - That's right.
- What is it? / - It means a strong personality.
Are you saying that the crazy dog is strong?
She has a strong personality.
- Oh, I see. / - Yes.
Seyoon hates your joke.
Myungsoo is a professional, but...
You should scold him like Joo Hyun.
- That's an old joke. / - Say something to him.
- It's still funny. / - Say something to him.
You should have researched beforehand.
(He's angry)
(Uncomfortable)
Myungsoo looks fine on the outside,
but he's actually shaking his legs.
- I did that on purpose. / - Okay.
- I'm trying to help you. / - I like your jokes.
- It's all scripted. / - I see.
- She's a member of Fiestar. / - They're scripted?
You're still on the first page of the script.
Flip some pages.
Where is that written?
- You're unbelievable. / - He doesn't read the script.
He hasn't flipped a single page.
- I was flipping them in my head. / - What?
He was still on the first page.
This is hilarious.
- What's wrong with you? / - Sorry.
Yezi is a member of Fiestar
and she earned the nickname "Amazing Yezi".
- She looks fierce. / - Really?
- Yes. / - My laugh lines are visible.
- So... / - You're an idol,
- but you have wrinkles. / - Yes, I do.
- Yes. / - She's honest.
- I really have them. / - For an idol, it's unusual.
- I do. / - You must have been through a lot.
So I often hear that I look fierce.
That's why I got bangs.
In fact, on the show,
you did appear a bit intimidating.
- Yes. / - She cursed so much on the show.
- No, I didn't. / - Show us, then.
- That's right. / - The disrespecting
- was okay considering / - Yes.
- the character of the show. / - That's right.
I asked him earlier if I could disrespect him
with my rap.
And he told me he would kill me if I did.
I meant that if you were to do it,
you should do it well.
Then why don't you go first?
- You want Myungsoo to go first? / - If he does...
Then Myungsoo should aggravate her
- with a rap. / - Yes.
- Should I get started? / - Start rapping.
(What is he doing?)
'Are you the famous Yezi?'
(An unprecedented disrespect)
Hold on. It's so old-fashioned.
Don't do it in an old-fashioned way.
(Please be classier)
'Your laugh lines are so vivid for an idol'
'I don't care who you are and I don't want to know'
(And)
(She stood up)
- Yes. / - She's ready.
(My laugh lines?)
(You don't care?)
(Let me destroy you)
- She's coming. / - Come on.
'Okay, Park Myungsoo'
(He's having fun listening to her)
Stop that.
I'm trying to be serious.
- Be serious. / - Be serious, so that
- she can get into it. / - Think of something awful.
I'm sorry. Try again. I'm sorry.
- She's coming back. / - She's coming back.
(She tries again)
'Okay, Park Myungsoo, sorry but I own this place'
Please look at me.
(You have to look at her)
(She's disrespecting you)
- Look at her. / - I used to get beat up
- by girls like her. / - He's scared.
- He's too scared to look at her. / - Look at her.
'Sorry, but I own this place'
'Do you want me to say it again?'
'You'll be placed second if you're with me'
'If you're going to keep whining, just go home already'
I'm going home right away after the show.
I want to go home soon.
Yes.
Thank you, Yezi.
(She's back to being an idol)
Besides the amazing Yezi,
we also have someone who is among the best
on eating with us today.
He'd recently become as famous as
Kim Joonhyun for eating.
Welcome, Moon Seyoon.
(The rising star, Moon Seyoon)
- Among the many younger comedians, / - Yes?
he's really good.
- Really. / - He's very talented.
Speaking of talents,
let's do a round of impersonations.
Can we please see your impersonation?
Show us the one you did on your audition.
- What is that? / - I don't really remember it.
All I could do was impersonating,
so I did this at the audition.
'Do not lament over the world'
'that will never come'
This is the historical drama, Im Kkeokjeong.
Im Kkeokjeong is on his way
to meet someone.
Im Kkeokjeong, played by Joo Hyun, greets his father.
Father.
I'm going to go with that person.
I'll be right back.
The father, played by Andre Kim,
opens the door and says,
Be on your way.
Im Kkeokjeong meets Park Yeonggyu on his way.
Goodness. Hurry up!
Okay, I will. That's how it went.
Do Racoon from "Tazza: The High Rollers".
Racoon?
I need to put on his face.
(Putting on the face)
Goni, Pyung Gyungjang's right hand has been cut off.
Wow, I got goose bumps!
- It was just like him. / - That's it.
(His impersonations are flawless)
Since you're still young,
- you will eventually succeed. / - Thank you.
- This is very kind of you. / - Yes.
- This is how he gets started. / - Really?
I have to be nice in the beginning.
- What did you bring? / - You know, the 24-inch TV.
- The TV? / - I brought the ruler to measure it.
(His acting skills were recognized early on)
I just came on the show.
I am Joo Hyun.
(He was on)
(Multiple dramas)
(And films)
(He's a seasoned actor)
(Who even appeared in musicals)
(But)
(He shines the most)
(When he eats on television)
(He took over all the eating shows)
(The year 2015)
(Was his best year)
Can you tell now that you're much more popular?
Well, I can't really tell yet.
When I'm outside, a lot of older people recognize me.
- They tell me they enjoy my shows. / - Okay.
What's best is that I earn money through eating.
It makes me happy to eat the expensive foods for free.
It's really amazing. Even my family is happy.
Moreover,
my eating shows make people
- feel physically better. / - Really?
People tell us stories. For example,
one old lady lost her appetite completely,
so she couldn't eat at all.
But after she watched our eating show,
she asked for food.
It's a story of an old lady and it's true.
There was also a story of someone
whose intestines didn't function.
- I had never heard of a case. / - It can be serious.
The patient was at the hospital watching our show
and suddenly he started salivating
and his organs started functioning.
(He salivated and his organs functioned)
- It's a medical show, then. / - It's a medical show.
- It's "Vitamin". / - "Mysteries of the Human Body".
- That's something. / - His doctors were so surprised.
- They wondered how it was possible. / - Is it true?
His salivary gland started working again
and he got better.
- How miraculous. / - The salivary gland worked
after watching his show.
- Is the story real? / - He makes it look appetizing.
- It's a true story. / - It should be documented.
Since then, I decided to work even harder
and make it look even more appetizing.
We hear lots of stories from the viewers about
how the show helped them feel better and laugh again.
But this story
- was unheard of. / - It's the story of a miracle.
I heard that Seyoon struggled once because of Jaeseok.
- Because of me? / - Jaeseok isn't like that.
Jaeseok and I happen to be in the same agency.
- That's right. / - I didn't follow him.
Jaeseok happened to join the agency
to which I belonged.
- That's correct. / - He was there first.
- I was his senior at the agency. / - That's right.
One time, we had a dinner with all the colleagues.
Everyone was going to be there, so I was very excited
to see Jaeseok.
At the dinner, he sat next to me. I was so nervous.
I'm a big man, but I was sitting there being shy.
- We were at a Chinese restaurant. / - That's right.
The dishes came out in a row,
and the last dish was placed in front of Jaeseok.
It was creamy shrimps.
- That's the best dish. / - That was the first one.
You have to eat the shrimps in one bite.
You eat the head, body, and tail in one bite.
But I couldn't bring myself to grab the shrimps
because I had to rub my shoulder against Jaeseok's.
(He had to pass Jaeseok to get the shrimps)
I had to get up to grab them.
This is a funny story.
I agonized because I wanted to eat the shrimps,
- but Jaeseok was in the way. / - Okay.
I was agonizing on what to do.
- You should have nudged me. / - Suddenly,
a creamy shrimp was put on my plate.
He said, "Seyoon, don't worry and help yourself."
("Seyoon, don't worry and help yourself")
He said, "I can't eat a lot of it. So go ahead."
He gave me one shrimp.
(Jaeseok was stingy)
How could you just give him one?
- You should have put four at least. / - I had no idea.
I'd never been served such a small amount before.
- I thought maybe he didn't like me. / - I had no idea.
He could have finished the entire dish by himself.
In total, he brought food to my plate four times.
Shrimps twice, sweet and sour pork once
and yusanseul once.
They were served to me like dog food.
(They were served to me like dog food)
- I gave him a lot of food. / - He didn't.
I thought I was giving him too much.
- What a shame. / - Yes.
After the dinner, I had a bowl of seolleongtang.
- He eats a lot. / - I was worried he'd get offended.
On this week's special, "We Should Have Been Nicer",
we will hear from each of the guests about
- what they did to become / - Yes.
famous overnight.
We all know how great Lee Chunsoo was
- in the 2006 World Cup. / - I cried watching the game.
In the 2002 World Cup,
Chunsoo did a goal ceremony
during the game against the U.S.
Like this.
It was the second game after the first victory.
After the first game, Hong Myungbo asked us,
"What would make a good ceremony for the Koreans?"
They were going to plan out the ceremony.
Since I was the youngest,
I stayed quiet beside the older players.
Even when they asked me, I never voiced my opinions.
You planned it in advance, right?
We were initially going to do it,
but we eventually decided not to.
The Apolo Anton Ohno ceremony?
- It was a big issue at the time. / - That's right.
- Junghwan scored the goal. / - That's right.
Junghwan was older than some of us.
He was between Hong Myungbo, who is the oldest, and me.
Some players suggested that we don't do the ceremony.
- We decided not to do it. / - Then what happened?
But Junghwan initiated it.
(But Junghwan initiated it)
He suddenly started doing it?
- I was also there / - Yes.
and I realized someone had to play Ohno's role.
(He volunteered)
He's the guy who raised his arms.
That ceremony at the time
really moved us.
- It was refreshing. / - It was satisfying.
He's the former soccer player, Lee Chunsoo.
(Now, he's a TV entertainer)
(He surprised everyone with his sweet voice)
Unbelievable.
On "The King of Mask Singer",
I heard that you sent them your demo tape.
(Gosh)
- You sent it yourself? / - Really?
- He wasn't cast. / - That's not easy to do.
- That is... / - That's amazing.
I know that I'm not an excellent singer,
but people tell me that I'm not too bad for an athlete.
That's what other people told me.
After my retirement,
I wanted to be on television.
So I agonized over what I could do to make it happen.
One time, I had two cans of beer during the day
because I was depressed.
(He was drinking during the day)
During the day, I had some judges watch me
and made a recording of my singing.
The production crew thought that my singing wasn't bad.
You believed them?
- That's what they told me. / - Okay.
So I agreed to make an appearance and the viewers
- ended up liking it. / - They were surprised.
There were articles written about it.
What did your wife say about it?
When I was practicing,
she told me that I had made the decision too quickly.
It was right after you retired.
Since singing was involved,
I called the station multiple times before the shoot.
I told them I might ruin their show.
After my wife watched my performance,
she told me that it was a good decision
even though it was made hastily.
- She supported me. / - Why don't you
- sing for us a bit right now? / - Yes.
(He will sing "You in My Arms")
- Please. / - Okay.
- I have a cold right now. / - It doesn't matter.
- Everyone has a cold in winter. / - I have a cold too.
- I have a cold too. / - Singers say that all the time.
How are you feeling, Chiyeul?
I have the flu.
- Everyone feels sick today. / - You really look sick.
You aren't feeling well, right?
I had two herbal medicines.
I think I feel a bit too calm.
(She is calm)
- She's drowsy. / - She's dozing off.
(She's about to doze off)
I was wondering why she's been so strangely calm.
She was too quiet,
- so I thought she was sick. / - She looks comfortable.
Her eyes are out of focus.
She seems to be spaced out.
You look a bit tired as well.
- Can I start singing now? / - Yes.
- Thank you. / - Why are you saying that?
("You in My Arms" sung by Lee Chunsoo)
(He's nervous)
The microphone isn't great.
He doesn't like the microphone.
(With his cold and a bad microphone, he starts singing)
He's good.
(His voice is full of emotions)
His voice isn't shaking.
(He concentrates)
He's in tune.
He sings well.
(He is immersed)
- He has a unique "f" sound. / - He made an "f" sound.
(His pronunciation is way too cheesy)
- Come on. / - That's too much.
- What was that? / - Come on.
- That's funny. / - He overdid it.
He received 19 out of 100 votes
- from "The King of Mask Singer". / - That's right.
What do you think about 19 votes?
- Don't you think that was a lot? / - Well...
(Oh, gosh)
- I think they made a mistake. / - I think that he lost
a lot of his votes because of his pronunciation.
- That's right. / - I see.
I think you lost votes because of your pronunciation.
- It was a little cheesy. / - Right?
Weren't you a vocal trainer?
What did you think?
Usually, people don't overdo it like that.
- Okay. / - I guess he
- learned that from overseas. / - I see.
How would you sing it?
I'd sing it like this.
- What? / - What?
- You don't sound like a Seoulite. / - Come on.
- It sounds fine. / - I mean...
- You pronounced the words wrong. / - Try it again.
Please sing it again.
(What does he sound like when he sings properly?)
He sings well. Try it, Chunsoo.
(He sings funny)
He got better.
- That's right. / - He was way
- too emotional before. / - Yes.
(He should do other entertainment shows)
(Instead of singing)
Tell us Chunsoo.
Who is your role model? There are talented entertainers
- who used to be athletes. / - That's right.
- That's right. / - Well,
- Kang Hodong is doing great. / - Okay.
Recently,
- Ahn Junghwan is doing well, too. / - Okay.
Former basketball player Seo Janghoon
is also doing great.
- What about Lee Donggook? / - Yes.
He's on "The Return of Superman".
But the greatest entertainer is Yu Jaeseok.
Where did that come from?
- What? / - I'm...
- I'm surprised. / - He wants your support.
- Right? / - Do you want his support?
Yes.
Well...
- There's a premium you have to pay. / - Tell us
how they're doing in your opinion.
They are all doing well.
- You also work as a commentator. / - That's right.
They all have different styles. Don't they?
That's right. Junghwan
- does it with humor. / - Okay.
- Lee Youngpyo is very insightful. / - I see.
In case of Cha Duri,
- he commentates with his father. / - I see.
Are you saying he's nothing without his father?
- That's basically what you said. / - I mean...
- You said that. / - No.
- Well, I think... / - What did you mean?
Are you upset because your dad is not Cha Bumkun?
- No way. / - Then what is it?
His father has been doing it for a long time,
so they understand each other and...
- They have a good partnership. / - That's right.
That's what you meant.
What about you?
- What's your specialty? / - That's right.
- What makes you different? / - Well,
- ladies find soccer difficult to follow. / - I see.
So you try to make it easier.
When it's offside,
I describe it like this.
It's a foul when you enter someone else's house.
- Well... / - I don't get it.
- It's too difficult. / - I don't understand.
That's not what an offside is.
- Wait. / - You will go to jail for that.
Think of it this way.
I think Duri is better.
Hey.
(He's strict on Saeho)
It's like entering someone's house before he's home.
Yes, I explain it like that first.
- Okay. / - I explain that first,
then I talk about the actual term.
I don't think you'll get to do commentaries.
(Please hire me)
- Now let's talk with Chiyeul. / - Okay.
Chiyeul became famous
because of the show called "I Can See Your Voice".
(He went from rags to riches)
(His name was the most searched keyword for two days)
(He finally became a star)
- He became a star overnight. / - That's right.
What happened to
- the singing academy? / - What happened?
I gave up.
I think your students
- must have been shocked. / - That's right.
All the students said,
- "Chiyeul, how can this happen?" / - That's right.
- They were so surprised. / - I see.
I was giving lessons the next day.
- Oh. / - You had to wrap it up.
While I was giving lessons,
my name was still ranked high in trending search words.
How did you react?
I told my students,
"Let's focus on music."
(Yooyoung is so calm)
I bet you were actually ecstatic.
I wanted to open the window and scream.
But I said, "You have a college to go to."
- "Let's study." / - Really?
"It shall pass."
(This, too, shall pass)
You're funny.
Didn't you think of closing the academy?
"I Can See Your Voice" helped me be on television.
Then "Immortal Songs" made me become famous.
After I finish shooting
"Immortal Songs", there are
about 150 fans waiting for me outside.
- They wait for me in line. / - I see.
- They are not very young. / - Oh, I see.
Some are in their 70s.
I met a fan who is a former principal.
- Are they all your fans? / - Yes, of course.
How do you check?
I get fan letters.
The former principal wrote me a fan letter
like an essay.
- She typed it out. / - Really?
"The future path you need to take as a singer."
She wrote a report.
- Yes. / - That's great.
- That's helpful. / - She also corrected me
on my grammatical errors.
She checked my spelling.
- That's great. / - I always write her back.
You sang "Father" when you were on "Immortal Songs".
- Yes. / - I heard it was a memorable moment.
Parents are very concerned when you are
an obscure singer for too long.
I was getting older.
My friends got married and had kids.
They also had nice jobs and earned lots of money.
- They're old enough. / - They have cars
but I don't. My parents thought I was wasting time.
- So they didn't support me. / - I see.
I was in Seoul alone and my parents didn't approve.
There was this family special episode,
so I invited my parents.
So you invited them.
It was my first time singing in front of them.
You must have been nervous.
- I understand. / - I was rehearsing and...
- I know. / - Yes.
I sang, 'Love each other...' Then I started crying.
- You're about to cry now. / - Yes.
My father actually
had a surgery because of stomach cancer.
He got it when I moved to Seoul.
("Father" by Hwang Chiyeul)
(Chiyeul's mother)
(These are the words he wanted to say)
(Chiyeul's father)
(To his parents)
(Yes, I loved you)
You impersonate other singers so well.
He is good.
- Can you show us? / - It's not
that I sound the same.
- I mimic their characteristics. / - Show us.
- Okay. / - Yes.
- Kim Jungmin. / - Okay.
- I can sing like Kim Jungmin. / - Okay.
'Now'
'Don't shed your tears'
I will do Park Hyoshin.
'If I loved'
He's good.
'Someone worthy'
'Trust me'
- Next is Ha Donggyoun. / - Okay.
They are all good singers.
'Please love me'
You are great.
- I will sing like Im Changjung. / - Okay.
It's Im Changjung.
'Hello, it's me'
'How are you doing?'
He's amazing.
(He sounds like a pansori singer)
(He keeps singing)
He sang with a deep voice.
All of a sudden, he went up.
Changjung does this a lot.
He goes like this.
'I told myself to bring you back'
'I shouted like crazy'
You have to look up like that.
(Hello, it's me)
(How are you doing?)
Can you sing like Yu Haejin?
- I can do a little bit. / - Okay.
Let's see.
(It's perfect!)
(He is starting to look like him)
- He's good. / - Yes.
- Wow. / - That was good.
"Let's see."
- Chunsoo. / - What about
- Chunsoo? / - Can you do it?
What about Yezi and Yooyoung?
Didn't you do Jimin's impersonation?
- Do you want me to rap? / - Yes.
Instead of rapping...
Yes, instead of rapping...
Well... I... Recently...
What are you saying?
(She's too nervous)
What are you saying?
Do you know where you are?
Yooyoung.
Are you learning something?
Yes, I'm learning martial arts.
It's been two months.
Since everyone can sing and dance,
I will show you martial arts.
- Please show us. / - Okay.
You have got to wake up.
She's wearing a skirt though.
- You finally seem to be awake. / - Yes.
Do you need an opponent?
- Will you try? / - Yes, that'd be great.
- Do it with her. / - Should I?
- You should do it. / - Do capoeira.
Show us capoeira.
(The biggest guy on the show, Poong is)
(Into Brazilian martial arts,)
(Capoeira)
- I'm learning kichunmu. / - I see.
- I practiced a lot yesterday. / - Do it.
- I'm ready. / - But...
- my shoes... / - What is that?
You need to make a move.
First of all...
What are you doing?
He always does that.
- This is the basic posture. / - That's right.
You look like a servant.
- Your Majesty. / - Your Majesty.
- Your Majesty. / - Okay.
Wait, here she goes.
- Okay. / - She's going for it.
- She'll do it. / - Could you do as I say?
- Do as she says. / - I was just...
- Do as she says. / - What should I do?
- What should I do? / - Punch like this.
- Punch like this? / - Yes.
- I learned a move called banjang. / - Okay.
You have to practice this about ten thousand times.
- Okay. / - I punch like this.
- I punch like this. / - Well...
(Fail)
Yooyoung, I saw it.
He was punching you from this way.
That's right.
(Poong versus Yooyoung)
(Punching)
(Wait a minute)
Poong, you should've made your move.
- You should've blocked. / - I'm sorry.
- You only learned it for two months. / - She's quick.
- She's really quick. / - She is.
I want to try.
- All right. / - Okay.
- She was fast. / - She really hit me.
- I will hit with my elbow. / - Okay.
- Then you have to block it. / - Like this?
- Yes. / - You have to block it like this.
- Block it? / - He needs to block her.
(Saeho versus Yooyoung)
(Fierce attack)
(That hurts)
Wait, Yooyoung.
You told him to block it.
(She added another move)
How could you do that?
That wasn't fair.
- I was... / - This wasn't in the plan.
How could you hit him twice?
I was just showing you what to do
when someone blocks you.
That was mean.
Okay. I will go next.
- Jaeseok, go. / - What should I do?
- It wasn't bad. / - You just need to block.
I will do banjang first,
then I'll strike your neck.
(She'll strike his neck)
(Will you strike my neck?)
Wait a minute.
- She's telling you what's coming. / - Okay.
- I'll go like this and block you. / - Okay.
(Jaeseok versus Yooyoung)
(Take that!)
Wait.
- Wait a minute. / - She hit him.
How could you do this?
(She hit him with her elbow)
You told me to block once. Gosh!
Hyunmoo should try.
Have a seat. Wait.
What should he do?
(He's trying his best)
(Take that)
(It's a windmill attack)
(Help!)
- She did a windmill move. / - Seriously.
That was crazy.
Get out of my way.
(Weaklings, get out of my way)
(Here's the real bad guy)
- Good. / - Wow.
He looks like Chivas Regal.
No, I mean to say...
It's Steven Seagal.
(It's Steven Seagal)
What? Chivas Regal?
(Myungsoo is hit)
- What? / - What happened?
(I just touched him)
- She really hit me. / - I know.
- Can we all go at once? / - Let's try.
Yooyoung.
- Can you fight with five guys? / - Can you?
- Do one at a time. / - Get in line.
- Bring it on then. / - Really?
Do it slowly.
(She is always calm)
(She's called as the Herbal Medicine Girl)
(And the bad guys)
(Stand before her)
(2016 The Herbal Medicine Girl)
Do it slowly.
(She beat Saeho, next is Jaeseok)
(Take that!)
(It's him again)
(She throws him to the ground)
(She attacks Myungsoo)
(That was a low blow)
Hit his eyes.
(He is the last one standing)
- Good. / - Keep going.
- Good job. / - Good.
(Take this!)
(It's the windmill attack)
(You deserve it)
(Hyunmoo is mad)
How could you do that?
(Yooyoung is still calm)
The movie "The Treacherous"
- made a buzz. / - Didn't it?
There was this scene with another actress.
- Yes. / - Right?
That must have been difficult.
Women had to compete for the King's love.
The two last women standing were
Lim Jiyeon and myself.
- Don't you attend the same college? / - That's right.
I was very worried at first
because we had to shoot intimate scenes.
But compared to actors, it was easier
to deal with.
(It's not easy for us)
- Are we on KBS? / - Well...
We have to be careful.
- It's.. / - Can you turn on the heater?
I feel cold all of a sudden.
- She's being honest. / - Yes.
- That's right. / - She was acting.
- You trained as a gisaeng. / - Yes.
- Did you? / - What did you train?
I had to crush pumpkins or melons
- with my thighs. / - I see.
- With your thighs? / - Were they already cracked?
- Did you really crush them? / - No.
- I could never do it. / - I see.
I used to do it.
- Really? / - Yes.
- I could do it. / - Really?
Can you do it now?
- Can you do it? / - I'm not sure because I'm retired.
How did you do it before?
I did it like this.
It was part of the scene.
- Is he that strong? / - Yes.
- Do you want to try? / - Okay.
What are you doing?
(That hurts)
Really?
(This is how strong a soccer player is)
- Try it. / - What's he doing?
(There)
My gosh.
Did something happen?
He just put his legs together.
(This is Myungsoo)
I'm thankful that I can walk
without relying on you.
I'm just happy that I'm able to walk.
- I heard she learned pansori. / - I see.
I learned it for two months for a movie.
She's very talented.
- She is. / - She learned it for two months.
(Joseon's best gisaeng, Seol Joongmae)
(Yooyoung was trained)
(To act the character, Seol Joongmae)
'The food for ritual is ready'
(That was the best finale)
- Great. / - That's awesome.
'The food for ritual is ready'
- There's no high pitch. / - That was great.
I have to say
making your voice vibrate is very difficult.
But she did it very well.
Really? Thank you.
Did you learn pansori, Chiyeul?
- I sang along when I was little. / - I see.
'Come over here, Let's have some fun'
'Love, love, my love'
You're showing off too much.
- Don't say that. / - I mean...
He should let her shine.
- He needs to be humble. / - Chiyeul
- used to work as a vocal trainer. / - Yes.
I trained Infinite,
Lovelyz who just made their debut
and After School.
Since you are here, can you train Saeho?
- Can you do it? / - Yes.
- I'll listen to him sing first. / - Okay.
I'll sing what Chiyeul sang before.
- I'll sing The One's "My Love". / - Okay.
- I like that song. / - Get up and sing.
- Should I? / - Of course.
- Take a bow. / - Is that necessary?
(He's bowing to the song)
'My love whom I dearly miss'
'My love, my dear love'
(He did pretty well)
Please give him some pointers.
When you sing,
don't hold your breath like this.
(You have to sing it out loud)
'My dear love'
Try it.
Open your mouth wide.
- Open wide. / - 'My love'
'My dear love'
It sounds as if
someone's hitting your neck.
Why do you do that?
- He's trying to vibrate his voice. / - He's trying
too hard.
- 'My love' / - Good.
- 'My dear love' / - Very good.
- Good. / - That's better.
'You are my dearest love'
That's good.
That's how you should sing when you sing high notes.
- I see. / - Try singing quietly.
'My love, my dear love'
- He's good. / - He's good.
- 'My love' / - 'My love'
Quit smoking.
Mind your own business.
I'm just concerned about you.
You shouldn't say that.
Wait. Why don't you sing in the high notes?
No, it's all right.
- 'A fool falls in love' / - Do that part.
I can digitally fix my voice.
- Just try. / - Wait and see what happens.
'A fool falls in love'
Please teach him.
'A fool falls in love'
- Was that difficult? / - Yes.
- Can you lean on me? / - Like this?
I'll push. Try to stand still.
Okay, I got it.
'A fool falls in love'
- It works! / - He sounded better.
- Can I do it to myself? / - Of course.
(A passionate vocal academy)
Like this?
(This student enrolled after hearing about the academy)
(Even office workers can enroll)
(This is silly)
What are you doing?
(Idol trainees)
(Screaming)
Okay.
Chiyeul is
- known as the G-Dragon of Gumi. / - Yes.
- Right? / - What does that mean?
- G-Dragon of Gumi? / - He's very famous in Gumi.
There were about 10,000 fans in my fan club.
You had that many even before you debuted?
- I was part of a dance team. / - In Gumi?
I have performed at shopping malls and various events.
We were very popular.
Let's say that I had a meal with Yooyoung and
Yezi is my senior. She'd say, "Come here, Yooyoung."
"I heard you had a meal with Chiyeul."
No way.
- Isn't he lying? / - She'd attack her.
Would it be that big of a deal?
Did the senior keep her in check
although she's not your girlfriend?
- Yes. / - She probably liked him.
I bought a meal to a junior in high school.
- Okay. / - A few seniors in high school
- called her / - Did they question her?
- to attack her verbally. / - Attack her verbally?
- "Who do you think you are?" / - He's exaggerating.
Why would I make this up?
If you ask the people in Gumi who were born
four years before or after 1982
whether they know Hwang Chiyeul,
they'd know I was popular.
- Really? / - Did you have a car?
- I didn't have my own. / - How did you go on dates?
Gumi is very small.
I see.
It's so small that you can walk anywhere.
(Laughing)
His laughter sounds like a woodpecker.
(Laughing)
Was it about ten years ago?
It was 14 years ago when I was 20.
- When I was 20... / - Has this happened to Chunsoo?
Did people get jealous when someone hung out with you?
People were sometimes thankful.
- For what? / - I was not popular at all.
(Basic entertaining skill is self-degrading)
This happened once.
When I was in high school,
as you know, I was not that good-looking.
(He gives up on his looks and tries to entertain more)
The person who met up with me told her friend
and she said, "That was nice of you."
("That was nice of you")
"That was very kind of you."
- That's right. / - "That was nice of you."
What's the point of being as popular as G-Dragon?
- You must earn as much. / - Did you also earn a lot?
My dance team earned around 200,000 dollars.
- What? / - Wow.
I suddenly got so surprised.
We earned about 100,000 dollars in six months.
You earned 200,000 dollars as a team
- 14 years ago? / - That amount at that time...
- We earned that much. / - That's a celebrity's income.
It's a lot more than an average celebrity's income.
If you had been that popular, weren't you given offers
- by some agencies? / - I was given offers.
At that time, we insisted on just dancing, not singing.
- That's what we said. / - You said you won't go on TV?
- We just tried to act cool. / - That's what you said.
We came to Seoul once.
We performed
- at a Dongdaemun shopping mall. / - There is a stage.
I was the team's vice leader. The team leader asked me,
"Do you want to perform here?"
Then he let me perform on stage.
- Okay. / - So with the given chance,
I danced on stage.
- How did people react? / - After I danced,
people kept giving us business cards.
- The team leader used to say, / - Did he bluff?
"We don't do things like that."
Did he tear the business cards?
- Why would he... / - He said we don't do that.
I said in the back,
"I think we can keep at least one business card."
(He thought they could keep at least one business card)
Seoul and Gumi felt very different.
If he hadn't moved to Seoul and stayed as
the G-Dragon of Gumi, what would have happened?
I'm good with my hands.
Gumi has an electronic complex.
- Right? / - Gumi has many corporate offices.
- So I could work at those places. / - As an engineer?
- There are big corporate events. / - That's right.
Like the company's talent show?
I think I could sing for events like that.
- Okay. / - I can also dance.
The production department would go wild.
(Production department would go wild)
The product quality wouldn't be so great though.
They would stop by to take a look at me.
You must have had a hard time in Seoul.
I heard you didn't even have the money to buy food.
Is it true that you didn't have enough
money to buy coffee?
I had given all my money to my parents before I left.
- All of it? / - Yes, all the money I had earned.
How much money did you give them?
- I gave them 40,000 dollars. / - Wow!
- The money you made? / - I gave them my bank account.
- You're a good son. / - That's a lot.
As I gave them the money,
I told my father that I wanted to prove myself.
I told him that I wanted to show him
what I could really do.
I only took 200 dollars with me.
While I did vocal training,
I continued to send a bit of money
to my parents after saving up.
Once in a while, I gave my father
a big amount of money.
(He gave a big amount of money)
I saved money by avoiding splurging
on clothes or eating out.
- Gyeongsang-do folks do that. / - That's impressive.
- You rented a room in Hongdae. / - Yes.
Didn't you meet women in Seoul?
- I did. / - Tell us.
I have met a girl. Someone introduced her to me.
I met this girl.
She felt awkward and started bragging
about her new wallet.
I took a look at it and read the brand name as "Geocci"
- "Geocci"? / - "Geocci"?
- You mean Gucci? / - Really?
- Yes. / - You read it wrong.
She never called me back.
(His date never called him back)
- She must have been disappointed. / - I know.
I heard you found it interesting
that people drank black water.
That was coffee.
I used to drink
- instant coffee at home. / - That's right.
I thought people were carrying some black tonic.
(I thought people were carrying some black tonic)
(Tonic take-out)
I wondered why people drank that.
You thought people were unhealthy.
I found the subway in Seoul interesting as well.
There are no subways in rural areas.
- Have you been to Busan? / - There's no card reader.
- I see. / - When someone put a card
on the card reader, it said, "A student".
(Surprised by the card reader)
"How did it recognize a student"
"when he wasn't wearing a uniform?"
- Seriously! / - And?
I thought the system verified who was on the bus
- in Seoul. / - I see.
- Some may think that. / - That's right.
I was on the subway once. I used to see the subway
on the news when I was young.
Subway is a train that runs fast underground.
- It's like a train. / - That's right.
(Subway is a train that runs fast underground)
I was sitting face to face with a friend of mine.
I was listening to music with headphones on.
Then some light suddenly shone on me.
I turned around wondering why
there was light underground.
Then I saw the ocean.
(Why did he see the ocean?)
Goodness!
There was a view of the ocean.
(It was Han River, not the ocean)
I said, "Look, there's the ocean!"
("There's the ocean!")
I said it too loudly since I had headphones on.
My friend also said he could see the ocean.
We were crossing Yanghwa Bridge.
- It was the ocean. / - It must have seemed cool.
- Wow. / - It was interesting.
She really has
an amazing talent. Weren't you on
- a rapping competition show? / - That's right.
(Provided by Mnet)
(Skillful female rappers gathered)
(It's a show where rappers compete fiercely)
(One of the competitors was Yezi, an idol rapper)
(She showed off her skills)
- She did so well. / - I know.
Most of the candidates on the show
had strong personalities.
We didn't.
- We just appeared that way / - Okay.
- with the background music. / - Really?
You're right.
We would be sitting like this.
There wasn't much to talk about when we were sitting.
We could be sitting like this.
And serious music would be played in the background.
Then we would look...
(She suddenly looks serious)
(Provided by Mnet)
(Serious)
This is the worst.
- Right, I can see that. / - It just looks that way.
I didn't intend to look mean.
I didn't have anything to say.
You were sitting there for long.
I just thought "I want to go to the bathroom."
"My eyes hurt."
- But if I don't say it aloud... / - They were simply
sitting down, but with the serious music,
- they looked intimidating. / - That's right.
If you wear contact lenses over 30 hours,
- your eyes really hurt. / - That's right.
So my eyes were really...
(My eyes hurt)
I couldn't help but blink like this.
I just couldn't help.
- When it's played in slow motion... / - I see.
(I was in a bad mood at that time)
- I didn't know you laughed a lot. / - Me either.
All the candidates laugh a lot too.
I didn't know you were so cheerful.
My parents were surprised.
They wondered why I was so upset.
- I was scared of you. / - I found a new side of me
after watching myself on TV.
I empathize with her
because I do eating shows for 11 hours.
The show airs for an hour, but I eat for 11 hours.
One of the comments said,
"Stop eating, Fatties. I'm worried about you."
("Stop eating, Fatties. I'm worried about you")
We can take care of ourselves.
I thought you just rapped.
- That's great. / - We get medical checkups.
You have to write that.
- They always say this last. / - What?
The meanest comment said,
"You're a pooping machine."
We do eat a lot,
but we go to the toilet just as anyone does.
I empathize with her completely.
- Goodness. / - That's right.
He has been a comedian
- for 13 years. / - Yes.
He's really gifted in doing
eating shows. He's become very popular with eating.
- Thank you. / - Yes.
I'm curious about this.
Aren't you on the show with Joonhyun and Minkyung?
Who can eat the most?
- Be honest. / - Kim Joonhyun
really knows how to eat.
He eats a lot, but he has his own philosophy.
- On what? / - On how to eat.
What he and I believe is that the bigger
you are, the cleaner you must be when eating.
- Eat it in one bite. / - Be clean when eating.
Don't you eat the fried chicken in one bite, too?
I don't put it down.
I have to finish it in one bite.
- Is that possible? / - You're like a vacuum cleaner.
Wouldn't it get crazy in the mouth?
Wait, do we have any fried chicken?
Oh, my.
(Seyoon rewrites the history of eating shows)
(How to eat fried chicken in one bite, Seyoon's way)
- It looks tasty. / - We have to see this.
It looks delicious.
- This is great. / - Do you have spicy sauce?
Do you like it spicy?
When it's cold, spicy chicken is better.
- But still... / - Well...
This is how it goes.
People who are fat should eat in a clean way.
If you get messy while eating, people would say,
"He's fat" and they will tease you.
- Okay. / - So, you have to be clean.
They have the sauce.
(Here comes the sauce)
Please give it to me.
(Please give it to me)
You looked really happy. "Please give it to me".
- Could you squeeze this out? / - Okay.
This is how it works.
A piece of fried chicken looks like this.
For the chicken wing, you must take
the meat off at once.
- The chicken wing? / - Yes.
The easiest one to start with is chicken wings.
You have to eat it in one bite.
- There's a joint here. / - Okay.
You must get rid of it first.
- You tear it off with your mouth. / - With your mouth?
You must not eat quickly.
Eat it slowly and savor it.
It's a show on how to tear the meat off the chicken.
- Keep this in your hand. / - Okay.
(He's holding the leftover wing)
Wings are the easiest to eat.
We've seen so many unusual things today.
We saw martial arts and...
(From martial arts to deboning a chicken)
Why are you eating the radish?
- You must eat at least one radish. / - Okay.
So you keep it moist.
- For you to salivate? / - Does it help you debone it?
- Do you have bones in the mouth? / - I see glimpses
of the bone in his mouth.
Are the bones in the mouth?
(They came out)
(They can't believe what they're seeing)
This is incredible.
Yes.
Wow.
Some people throw the bone away.
- I throw it away. / - That's right.
The sound it makes when the bone
falls has to be different.
If it makes a louder sound,
that means there's still some meat on it.
The sound is different.
- It must make a light sound. / - Okay.
- The sound? / - Yes.
You must chew the meat under here like you chew gums.
Meat is most delicious when it's attached to the bone.
He has a philosophy.
- Look at that. / - That's so cool.
It also has cartilage.
Is it delicious?
What kind of question is that?
Don't ask something obvious.
(Seyoon feels insulted)
It's because we don't eat those parts.
- So... / - Why not?
- We don't eat it. / - It doesn't have much meat.
How can you eat while talking?
(He debones it easily)
That's clean.
I'll now eat a drumstick.
You can't put the whole drumstick in your mouth.
If it goes in, you'd choke.
You can't eat it in one bite.
- It doesn't work that way. / - It doesn't.
You must go for the joint.
You must eat the cartilage.
- If you don't eat the cartilage, / - Yes?
you won't be able to eat the meat.
I don't usually eat the cartilage.
You must!
- You have to eat it. / - Is it to not waste any meat?
Here's the joint.
There's one each on top and bottom. There's one
- by the ankle. / - You sound like a doctor.
He's like a vet.
It's not easy to debone that part.
There's a big bone and a thin bone on the side.
- It's as thin as a toothpick. / - That's right.
- There are two. / - He's like a vet.
First, break the joint with your teeth.
- You're breaking the joint? / - I broke the joint.
- It is done. / - Oh, is it?
- Is it broken? / - Yes.
- Really? / - I heard the breaking sound.
There is no cartilage now.
- It's gone, right? / - Yes.
You must make it easy to eat.
It's a lecture on how to eat fried chicken.
- Seriously... / - I'm getting hungry.
Wait.
After breaking that, you see
- the bones, right? / - He's right.
And then
put it in your mouth and suck in the meat
- as much as you can. / - Shall we start?
Put it in.
(He puts it all in his mouth in one bite)
(It's gone)
(He perfectly debones it)
That was amazing!
(Everyone stands up to applaud)
- That was amazing! / - Goodness.
It was like a miracle.
- It is like magic. / - I got goose bumps.
There's a thin bone. Just spit it out.
I have only seen this in a cartoon.
And then eat the rest.
(Cleanly eating)
(The remaining bottom part)
After you finish eating...
(He ends the demonstration by dropping the bone)
That's a great sound.
He showed us how to debone a fried chicken.
He truly is an exceptional food eater.
(A master of deboning chicken is born)
Yezi used to dream of being a dancer in Gangneung.
- Yes. / - Are you from Gangneung?
Yes, I'm from Gangneung, Gangwon-do.
I danced at Park Mikyung
and Hong Kyungmin's concerts.
- Really? / - Yes.
"Shaky Friendship"?
- Pardon me? / - "Shaky Friendship"?
I danced to "Shaky Friendship".
- Did you dance with Clon? / - How did you dance to it?
(The men with ties are excited)
(Myungsoo is getting excited)
Yezi has performed at Gangneung's
Shin Saimdang Festival.
- Wait. / - Really?
It doesn't suit her.
Shin Saimdang was from Gangneung.
- That's right! / - You're right.
- It doesn't suit her. / - It's like other festivals.
- What is Shin Saimdang Festival? / - What is it?
I love dancing so much
but I didn't have many chances to show.
So my friends and I performed
choreography of The Grace's dance.
- That's what I remember. / - Really?
Shouldn't we have Gumi and Gangneung compete?
- Actually, / - Let's have a dance battle.
- we have G-Dragon of Gumi / - That's right.
and Stephanie of Gangneung today.
- Let's start with Chiyeul! / - Okay!
Let's go, G-Dragon.
(I'm the G-Dragon of Gumi!)
That's great.
He dances well.
- He's different. / - He's great!
(I'm Hwang Chiyeul!)
(Popping dance is easy for him, too)
Chiyeul, you're amazing!
(He is in the mood to dance today)
(He's almost drooling)
Show us again.
(He's doing difficult moves)
(He's so cool)
He's good at singing and dancing.
Please give him a round of applause!
(He's a perfect multi-talented entertainer!)
(I'm sorry I didn't know you could dance so well)
I didn't know he was this good.
Now, it's Stephanie of Gangneung.
- Following G-Dragon / - I'll do something short.
- of Gumi we have BoA of Gangneung! / - Let's go.
(Feeling the beat)
(Forget about Yezi, the rapper!)
(Let's remember the Dancing Queen Yezi!)
- Her dance is... / - Oh, my.
She dances like a professional.
- She's good. / - Yes, she is.
She has the grooves.
(A powerful dance)
(That is entertaining to watch)
- Gosh! / - Goodness!
She's going crazy.
Oh, my.
Why do you keep saying that?
(Her dance moves are impressive)
(He's a fan of girl groups)
Look at that.
(I'm not just a charismatic rapper)
This looks like the show, "X-Man".
She's good.
Her movements flow.
(I dance instinctively to the rhythm)
- Yooyoung. / - Yooyoung.
Come on!
- Yooyoung! / - Come on!
Play the same music.
- I don't think I can dance. / - She can do body rolls.
(She starts dancing as soon as the music starts)
You must have been clubbing before.
(Her pelvic moves are impressive)
(What?)
(Splitting her legs)
(Is she okay?)
You're wearing a skirt.
(Lee Yooyoung does a split in a skirt)
(On her first variety show)
(We're sorry we didn't recognize her splitting skills)
We've gotten closer to our five guests.
These five people
- still have a lot to say. / - That's right.
There's so much left
to tell about their lives and there's not enough time.
Don't you have more to tell?
I was just getting started.
- I know. / - We have to hear
about Chunsoo crying while he was working abroad.
Please show us your tears next week.
- He might cry someplace else. / - He'll be here again?
- Don't cry somewhere else. / - Okay.
- You made a promise. / - Okay.
You were preparing to say the closing comment.
But he's still on the first page of the script.
- How can this be? / - How could you do this
- when we're closing? / - I remember the lines.
He only turned one page.
- That's right. / - Wow.
We look forward to hearing
from these five guests this year.
We hope you will do well in your career.
That's all for today.
We'll come back with more next week.
- Thank you! / - Thank you!
