This week's story on Rainbow Club.
Today is brighter than yesterday...
because of your dreams and passion.
Yong Geon takes on a new challenge.
He goes through an extreme makeover for his new role in drama.
Do you think you can handle this?
Who is this?
(What a handsome guy!)
Is this really me?
The friends go on a trip to make precious memories.
Have you ever taken a real break?
I've been on a break for nine years.
I don't need a break anymore.
The gorgeous Han Chae A pays the Rainbow Club a visit.
Not only is she beautiful, but she also has surprising charm.
And 1, 2, 3, 4!
Be ready to take a peak...
at the everyday life of a beautiful actress.
Becoming a thorn that digs deep into you
Today's episode is called "Beautiful Day".
I'm a beautiful boy
"I'm telling you. She's a great daughter-in-law."
"She's very smart."
"You'd fall in love if you met her."
(The table is covered in scripts.)
I'm shooting multiple dramas.
It's confusing.
(He prepares for two dramas at the same time.)
"Cinderella"...
The lines in this one are amusing.
"Oh, what's that?"
Hey, Wilson.
(He practises with Wilson.)
What's that over there?
(Poking)
(Yong Geon chuckles.)
You fell for it again, didn't you?
Wilson, I love how gullible you are.
(Wilson is lost for words.)
Also...
smell your palm.
If it smells like onions, it means you're in bad health.
(Hitting)
Just kidding!
Oh, you have something here.
How polite of you to bow like that!
(Tired)
These lines are amusing.
These are jokes from the 90s.
Let's see. Where is "Marriage Contract"?
(Yong Geon plays the role of a CEO in "Marriage Contract".)
"Are you trying to make me look bad by cancelling appointments?"
"I know that's wrong."
"I'm not telling you to get married immediately."
"I just want you to give him a chance."
(He is a strong-willed CEO.)
(Glaring)
These lines...
(He has to play two totally different roles.)
I'm a short-tempered CEO in one of the dramas...
and a grave one in the other.
I have to think about my hair.
I should stop dying my hair...
and let it grow out.
(He takes a look at various hairstyles.)
Grey hair looks nice.
It looks unkempt.
Even young people dye their hair white.
It looks stylish.
I need to have grey hair then.
I should get ready and go out.
(He takes off to turn his hair grey.)
(Yong Geon visits a beauty salon.)
- Hello. - Hello.
I'm here for a facial.
- It must be an important day. - You could say that.
I have several shoots.
Can you make me look 10 years younger than I am?
- Don't make me look too young. - Got it.
- I'll trust you with this. - Of course.
- Follow me to get changed. - Okay.
(He knows how to crack jokes in every situation.)
I want a higher nose...
and wider eyes.
All right.
Can you move up a little? Thank you.
There you go.
(Is she dying of laughter yet?)
Surprise me with your skills.
All right.
(Look forward to it!)
(He gets a facial to prepare for the new drama.)
(He's going all out for the new part.)
(He has turned into a chocolate-covered man.)
(I am an actor.)
(She peels the chocolate mask off his face.)
- Is that it? - Yes.
The role I'm playing for the new drama...
is a bit younger than I am in real life.
- I see. - I play the part of a CEO.
After the facial,
I suggest you get a henna tattoo. Many young people get it these days.
It's not permanent, is it?
- No, it lasts about a week. - A week?
Then I'll give it a try.
Okay, your slippers are on this side.
Thank you so much. Do you have a mirror?
(What kind of effect does the chocolate therapy have?)
- Let's see. - You can wash your hair.
Who is this?
Is this really me?
(You're adorable.)
Wow.
This must be why people get their hair and facial done.
- You're done here. - You should watch the drama.
- Come this way for the henna. - Okay.
Should I give henna a try?
This looks nice.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
What do you think of the bunny shape?
The rabbit.
- Is this for your ear? - Yes, behind my ear.
Right here, behind my ear.
- Does it look okay? - Yes, it does.
I should choose another one for my arm.
- What about this one? - There are three sizes.
- I want the small one. - The smallest one?
- I think you could try this one. - You do?
- Right here. - I'll do it here.
I don't want it to look wrinkled.
I'm trying new things today.
This is a huge challenge for me.
This is for my new part.
- I think it'll suit you. - That's why I'm doing this.
- Oh, wow. - There you go.
- That was simple. - Wait until it's dry.
All you have to do is wait for it to dry.
(I am amazing.)
- You know where it should go. - Yes.
- Is it done? - Yes.
Am I done?
- Should I wait until it's dry? - That's right.
When I meet people, I'll say, "You know, I..."
(Love)
This is how I feel about you.
That's what I'll do.
I really...
(Love)
"I have a pet rabbit."
"Really? At home?"
"No, it's right here."
(He grins.)
(He couldn't be more pleased.)
What next?
(He feels much younger.)
Let's go.
(Mr Kim's makeover continues.)
I should get changed.
(His footsteps are as light as a rabbit's.)
All right.
(He visits the hair salon for further transformation.)
It's nice to see you.
- How are you? - Good.
- How are you? - It's been a while.
- You look great. - Thank you.
How long have you been friends with Jung Woo?
Was it since kindergarten or primary school?
I've known him since primary school.
- It's been quite a while. - Yes.
It's nice to see you two together.
I'm starting a new drama soon.
I need some change.
I was thinking of bleaching my hair.
Well...
Bleaching will damage your hair too much.
We have colour spray that washes out.
- You could try that. - Should I do that?
- I'll get it ready for you. - Sounds good.
All right.
I used your razor to cut Jung Woo's hair...
when we were in middle school.
- Oh, right. - I shaved his hair.
Yes, I remember that.
You used to often play around with your hair, didn't you?
I think I cut your hair once.
Yes, I was sitting in front the dressing table.
- Now, I cut hair for a living. - Right.
- And Jung Woo is a famous actor. - It's interesting.
(Time flies.)
I'll now make you look like you have grey hair.
- Okay. - I'll show you...
- how it will look. - Okay.
- I can wash it off... - It'll wash off.
- with water, right? - That's right.
(He's nervous about spraying his hair grey.)
- I can see the colour. - Yes.
- You need to keep spraying. - I see.
The colour will be murky if you spray too much at once.
I see.
I guess I can come here before I go to the set.
It'll be a bit of a hassle, but...
- I ride a helicopter anyway. - I see.
Do you have a helipad on the roof?
Well, I'll see what I can do.
You will? It would be convenient if you could find one.
I'm going to dye your eyebrows...
- along with your hair. - You will?
- My eyebrows? - Yes.
Let's see how it looks.
(He's nervous about dying his eyebrows for the first time.)
It looks like a bird pooped on my face.
(Just trust me.)
I'm planning on getting married again, but...
I look so old now.
(He is not fond of looking old.)
Wait a minute.
I still want to take a picture of myself.
Everyone does that these days.
Let's do it.
(Smile!)
Look at this photo. It's hilarious!
I'm surprised by how I look.
My expression looks funny.
I'm all set now.
You know that I'm in another drama.
- So... - I see.
I need to look different for that one.
Does it mean you need to change into someone who is completely...
- different from this one? - That's right.
My character gets married five times in this one.
(His role is of a CEO who got married five times.)
(He's changing again.)
(Colourful)
Wow. Look at that colour.
(He looks like a parrot.)
Fluorescent colours are very popular these days.
(He is nervous.)
(He's spraying various colours.)
You're just testing them out, right?
- Right. - Oh, I can see the colours.
For now, I'm just showing you how each colour would look.
That's good.
I do like the colours.
I'm filming two dramas at the moment.
There are...
stereotypes about what a CEO should be like.
I wanted to portray a different kind of chairman.
It's not that easy to create a character like that.
I'm doing my best, though.
Trying new hair styles or new outfits are all part of...
my creative process and effort.
The weather is great today.
(After the transformation...)
It's a fine day.
(he arrives on the set for "Marriage Contract" poster shoot.)
(Humming)
(He's humming out of nervousness and excitement.)
Hello.
My goodness.
(Everyone is busy with the photoshoot.)
(U IE is the female lead character in "Marriage Contract".)
Hi, U IE.
Come here.
When was the last time we saw each other?
We haven't seen each other since "Ojakgyo Family".
- You look great today. - Do I?
- Don't I always look great? - Of course.
I look different from "Ojakgyo Family", right?
- In this drama, - Yes?
your character doesn't like my character.
I'll try my best to like your character.
I'll talk to the script writer.
I'm going to ask her to write more scenes for us.
She's beautiful.
You are a pretty girl.
She's pretty!
(U IE is a charming girl.)
- Can I take a picture with you? - Yes, let's do that!
- Let's take a photo. - I want to take one too.
(I'm going to upload it on my SNS.)
Let's see.
(His followers can't wait to see his photo.)
(We look cute.)
Let's take one more.
(They take another photo.)
- You look great in this picture. - I look awesome.
- It's you who make me look awesome. - I'm flattered.
(U IE will follow his SNS account as well.)
By the way,
do you have your own SNS account?
- Let me show you. - Do you have an account?
Wait a minute.
I created my account not so long ago.
- You're awesome! - Are you impressed?
- Is this you? - Yes, that's me.
Wow, you're so awesome!
Really?
(He is proud of himself.)
I heard something about...
your future daughter-in-laws.
Are you talking about my 3000 candidates?
- Yes. - I see.
- Have you chosen one yet? - I haven't.
It's so cool that you created your SNS account.
- Is it that cool? - Of course!
(Thank you, Young Chul.)
Lee Seo Jin doesn't have one.
- He doesn't, right? - Right.
- Do you have your SNS account? - I don't.
He has one though.
I have an account.
- U IE is now following my account. - That's nice.
- You should create one too. - I don't do SNS.
- That makes everything easy. - I don't do it at all.
It hasn't been long since I made the account,
but I'm already starting to get addicted to it.
It's fun. So I just keep doing it.
(Lee Seo Jin is apparently less cool than him.)
Let's take a picture together.
Let's take a selfie together.
We should celebrate today.
(Taking a selfie is his new way of showing affection.)
- Like this? - Yes.
(Seo Jin and Yong Geon)
Last time I had a drink with him,
- he gave me a ride home. - Well,
- we're neighbours anyway. - But still...
- It's not an easy thing to do. - It was no problem.
- Go ahead. - Okay.
(Lee Seo Jin is an awesome guy.)
(Yong Geon is enjoying his free time.)
Yong Geon.
Look who is here! It's Mrs Park!
- You look great. - I like the sun here.
- Oh, dear. - Have a seat.
Long time no see.
We're working as a couple again.
Since we get to see each other often, it feels like that we...
- are a couple all the time. - Don't I look the same?
- You and I? - Yes.
We're working with some good actors.
- We should enjoy it. - We should.
- You're right. - Yes.
(Look who's here!)
(Kim Kwang Kyu looks like a groom-to-be.)
- You look very nice. - Do I?
You look great as well.
It has been a long time since...
I saw you dressed up like this!
How is my hair?
Your hair is still thick and strong.
- Yes, luckily it is. - Yes.
By the way,
- it's really bright here. - Is it?
- Shall we sit elsewhere? - That's okay.
I meant the light was reflecting off your forehead.
I was being cruel. Most people would walk away, if I said...
something like that to them.
(A fun conversation between two single men)
- You need to get ready, right? - Yes.
(Now it's Yong Geon's turn!)
- Hello. - Hello, thank you for your work.
- Thank you for your work, too. - Thank you.
(He is nervous.)
- We'll start now. - I need you to focus.
(He is in character.)
- It looks great. - What are you talking about?
- Keep going. - Is Lee Seo Jin here?
(He's immersed himself into his character.)
It looks great now. Good.
(He is in character.)
(He has successfully become the chairman.)
It's going great.
You're all done.
Okay. Thank you for your work.
- Can I see the pictures? - Yes.
They look good. You're a good photographer!
- Thank you. - They're good.
- My hair is okay, right? - Yes, it looks good.
- It's okay, right? - Actually it looks awesome.
I bleached my hair.
- I see. - Really?
You bleached it instead of spraying it?
No, I sprayed it.
(You couldn't tell, right?)
It looks natural as if I really had bleached my hair.
You look great with grey hair.
I think so, too.
Luckily, people liked my new hair colour.
I'm willing to do anything...
if it's for my character. I can take up any challenge.
Until I retire someday,
I will always...
do my very best.
- We're done! - Okay.
- Thank you for your work! - Thank you.
- Thank you! - No problem.
- Thank you for your effort. - Yes.
- Thank you for your effort. - No problem.
- Good job today. - Thank you.
- I will see you on set. - The next shoot is in New York.
- Good job today. - Yes, thank you.
- I have a little more to do. - Okay.
Keep up the good work!
- Thank you for your work. - Thank you.
("The Rainbow Live")
(The new MBC building in Sangam-dong)
- Welcome! - Hello!
- Oh, my. - Goodness.
You're finally here, Young Chul.
- It's very nice to see you. - You're here.
- It's nice to see you too. - You seem to be getting prettier.
- Me? - You lost some weight.
- You lost some weight, right? - I need to get married, too.
- I lost a little. - I can tell.
- Just a little. - Wait, you do know that...
you have to quit this programme if you get married.
I know.
But getting married is easier said than done.
I would have married in my 20s if I could.
I need people to know that I am available.
- You put yourself out there. - That's right.
As the weather is getting warmer,
- I wore this see-through top. - I see.
- You can't wear a net here. - Come on.
- That's mean. - It's not a net.
I dressed up to welcome our guest today.
Isn't it about time to have a male guest?
I think it's about time we had a male actor as a guest.
- That's right! - Do you think so?
- Kim Woo Bin? - Maybe it's Park Bo Gum.
- Wow, Park Bo Gum! - Where should he sit?
- Can he ride on my back? - He can sit on a seat.
- Let's see whom we have today. - It'd better be a man.
- I'm sure it's a guy. - Wow!
If it's not a guy. I'm walking out.
(The studio has gotten a lot brighter.)
- I'm sure it's a guy. - Wow!
I'm done for the day.
Hello! Hello!
Is this for real?
- Hello, everyone. - Hello.
- That's too much, Young Chul. - What are you doing?
Don't act like you're a close friend of hers.
(Well, hello.)
You're getting married next month, Jung Wan.
(She is a fatally beautiful.)
(She's as talented as she is beautiful.)
(But she is unexpectedly clumsy...)
(and is very easy-going.)
Han Chae A!
I will continue to do my best as an actor.
Thank you for your support.
(Actress Han Chae A)
- Please welcome, Han Chae A! - Welcome!
- In "Real Men", - Yes.
- you picked your nose. - Oh, dear.
- Yes, she picked her nose. - Okay.
- She also didn't wear makeup. - Yes, I did that.
You looked like a very easy-going person.
I have a feeling we will see your easy-going side today.
Okay.
We will watch this very carefully.
- I'm curious. - I'm curious, too.
Let's take a look.
("The Rainbow Live")
(She lives in Seongdong-gu.)
- Oh. - Seongdong-gu.
- We live in the same neighbourhood. - Is that right?
- Don't mention that. - Stop it.
Your apartment looks so neat.
It's so clean.
(The curtains don't let any light in the room.)
(She's pretty even when she's sleeping.)
I sleep like that, too.
(Even the alarm of the actress is classy.)
(It's pitch black.)
- Oh, this is her bedroom. - She looks like a princess.
(She doesn't have any makeup on.)
(It looks like a scene from a movie.)
(Cuddling)
(Chae A's day starts in the dark.)
(She opens the drapes.)
She opened the curtains like an actress.
She makes the bed. I don't make my bed.
Your bedding is beautiful.
(She makes her bed in a meticulous manner.)
Why are you so meticulous about making the bed?
It makes me feel good to make the bed nicely.
- Wow. - It's so neat.
You're making it look like a bed in a hotel.
Hello.
I'm Actress Han Chae A. Nice to meet you.
After I moved to Seoul...
(She came to Seoul after graduating from high school.)
I've been living alone.
I used to live in a studio.
The next place I rented was a studio, too.
Back then, I had no money. I had nothing.
It's been 10 years since I started living alone.
You lived in a studio?
When I first came to Seoul, I didn't have a job.
My living expenses were around 300 dollars.
- 300 dollars a month? - Yes.
- I managed to live with that much. - How old were you then?
- I was about 22 years old. - Oh, you were so young.
Weren't your parents against the idea of living alone?
- They were against it. - I thought so.
"Do you think you can make it as an actress?"
"You think you can become an actress?"
They couldn't really support me financially.
But actually, you're famous for being an outstanding student.
No, that's not true.
I didn't perform well at school.
Well...
Are you confessing you were dumb?
- You weren't smart? - Is that what you meant to say?
I am so surprised.
I thought you were an outstanding student.
What were your grades like?
My grades weren't very good.
- How bad were they? - I didn't like studying.
Were you an average student?
No, I was below average.
- Below average? - It means she wasn't good at all.
Okay, you weren't a smart student at all.
So you were not an outstanding student.
I was an ordinary student.
- You were an ordinary student. - Yes.
Did you sleep well? Come here.
(It's her puppy, Soon Shim.)
Hey!
- Gosh. - She pooped.
She pooped on the floor.
Soon Shim!
Get over here right now.
Get over here. Come here.
You're aware of what you've done, right?
You know what you've done wrong.
Look at this.
What is this?
Why did you poop here again?
Did I tell you to poop here? You knew where to poop before.
You're in trouble.
Stay right there.
- Hold still. - She's so adorable.
Soon Shim, who told you to poop on the floor?
You knew where to poop before.
(Soon Shim is being disciplined.)
- She's so cute. - You sound like a drill sergeant.
- She's standing. - She's standing.
- Wow. - Wow.
(Feeling guilty)
(Chae A finds the situation funny.)
(As soon as Chae A is out of her sight,)
(Soon Shim stands down.)
I praised you for pooping in the bathroom.
Where do you think you're going?
(Soon Shim runs away from Chae A.)
She's adorable.
(She succeeds in running away from Chae A.)
Please don't poop here, Soon Shim. Okay?
(Soon Shim's poop is still on the floor.)
(This is my life.)
Soon Shim.
Come here.
I'm still mad at you.
- She's so scary. - Is she stretching her?
(It's Soo Shim's unlucky day.)
Stay still.
Shall we eat?
- Shall we eat? - Soon Shim is excited.
Soon Shim, shall we eat?
(Chae A goes to the kitchen.)
(Chae A and Soon Shim make peace since it's time to eat.)
(Chae A gives Soon Shim her breakfast.)
(She printed the recipe ahead of time.)
(Chae A will make a nutritious juice for her diet.)
(She takes the blender out.)
(Crash)
(She's knocking things from the start.)
(That surprised me.)
(Crashing)
(She has a rough time.)
Why do you keep dropping things?
- Is it your first time cooking? - No, it isn't.
It looks like it's your first time in the kitchen.
(She's embarrassed.)
(She is a little clumsy.)
(She takes an apple, kale and a pineapple from the fridge.)
Her fridge is really tidy.
(She's done preparing the ingredients.)
(She rinses enough ingredients for herself.)
(The water splashes everywhere.)
(She always keeps the sink clean.)
(She puts the apple in.)
(Please, work.)
(Nothing is coming out.)
What is going on?
(There's something wrong with the blender.)
Why is it not working?
(She's a bit sloppy.)
Is it your first time using that blender?
You look flustered.
That's not your apartment, is it?
Isn't it a model home?
A model home?
The dog isn't yours, is it?
- No, that's not true. - I thought so.
(Her clumsiness is making everyone suspicious.)
(Please, work.)
(Will you be able to drink the juice by the end of today?)
Oh, it's working.
I need a teaspoon of chia seeds.
It looks unappetising.
(Chae A's diet juice is ready to be served.)
(She cleans the blender right after using it.)
(She washes the blender thoroughly.)
(She forgot about her juice.)
Don't you normally eat first and then wash dishes afterwards?
If I wash the blender immediately,
it's easier to wash it.
(The dish cloths are folded perfectly.)
(She's not finished.)
(She is taking care of the food waste.)
(Her juice is just a decoration.)
(She wipes the sink for the third time.)
(The sink is spotless.)
(She's finally drinking the juice.)
(Mum, where is my juice?)
(Her eyes are fixed on something.)
Together...
(Chae A's main interest is fitness.)
Together...
How did she do that?
Oh, like this.
(Struggling)
(She looks like a ghost from a distance.)
- Are you a ghost or what? - Are you trying to scare someone?
What are you doing?
They said it's an exercise.
How is that an exercise?
(I shouldn't have done it.)
(She's grimacing.)
(I finished exercising.)
(She weighs herself on a scale immediately.)
- Wow. - Why are they showing it?
Wow.
When did they film that?
- Goodness. - You look surprised.
- You are surprised, aren't you? - Why are you showing that?
- I am surprised indeed. - Why are you discouraging me?
I should cook some rice.
(She uses multigrain rice...)
(and chia seeds.)
What is it that you're adding to rice?
It's lentil, chia seeds and...
amaranth.
(She rinses the rice first.)
Look at her.
(What is she doing?)
What are you doing?
She's really clumsy.
It looks like she's rinsing rice for the first time, too.
(The sink is getting messy.)
(She wipes the sink before she drys her face.)
(The sink is more important than my face.)
I'll let the rice soak for now.
(Chae A will now make doenjangjjigae.)
(Adding dried shrimp,)
(kelp,)
(anchovies and doenjang)
(She pours the water from the rice.)
(It's Chae A's secret to making delicious doenjangjjigae.)
(She adds some minced garlic.)
(She removes the ingredients used for broth.)
(Then she adds zucchini and onions.)
It looks delicious.
I forgot to cook the rice.
You're making doenjangjjigae...
- and you didn't cook the rice yet? - Rice...
She forgot about it after rinsing it.
I forgot about it.
(It's difficult for her to do two things at once.)
(She washes the dishes ahead of time.)
(Washing cleanly)
- She is not a perfectionist. - She is cleaning again.
- Exactly. - She's wiping the sink again.
I am getting tired of it.
- You should eat and then clean up. - I mean...
she shouldn't just spill anything in the first place.
(After boiling it for a while, put in chili, tofu and perilla leaves.)
(What is Chae A's last dish?)
- She is grilling a hairtail. - It's a hairtail.
People who live alone usually don't eat grilled fish often.
- I like grilled fish. - You do?
(It's the sixth time she has wiped the sink.)
She is wiping the sink again.
(She takes good care of her sink.)
(She cleans the house while the food is being cooked.)
(Step one. Dust the furniture.)
(Step two. Clean the floor with a vacuum cleaner.)
(Step three. Wipe the floor with a mop.)
When I see children eat cookies on the bed or sofa,
I still feel jealous of them.
I've never done that in my life.
My mum used to scold me if I did that.
As I grew up, keeping the house clean like her became a habit.
Rather than...
keeping your house messy,
it's better to keep it clean and tidy.
I didn't like how Mum cleaned the house as a child.
But now I'm grateful for her for teaching me that.
- Finally, it's done. - It's hot.
- Oh, my goodness. - She gets hurt or breaks things.
I cooked too much rice.
(She puts cooked rice in several containers.)
That'd be enough.
(Then, she stores them in the freezer.)
Why are you sitting there? Are you going to eat this?
This is my seat.
(This is my seat.)
You are funny.
(She wins her seat in the end.)
(Sipping)
(Exclaiming)
My goodness. It's delicious.
(She has a hearty meal even though she lives alone.)
Soon Shim, did you know that?
(Did you know that?)
Today is Valentine's Day.
It's the day you go out on a date.
She is eating grilled hairtail instead of going on a date.
(Munching)
Someone will give me a chocolate, right?
(Are you crying, Mum?)
At least I will get a text message...
from someone checking on me.
(I am Han Chae A. I am popular.)
(I haven't gotten any text messages.)
There's no text message for me.
Oh, I forgot to drink this.
I thought that juice was for her diet plan.
- She just had a big meal. - She drinks it for dessert.
- I think... - It's good for dessert.
(She washes the dishes right after finishing the meal.)
(I can't leave any oil stain.)
- Look at her. - She just had one meal,
and she even cleans the stove.
I would rather skip the meal.
You look like a professional cleaner.
But doesn't cleaning make you feel good?
- That's right. - It feels refreshing.
You cleaned the kitchen so many times for a meal.
(The only house chore she's good at is cleaning.)
Are you good at cooking? Do you cook every day like that?
I think I am good at cooking.
What else can you make other than doenjangjjigae?
- My doenjangjjigae is really good. - It looked delicious.
Please invite us to your house. I'd like to try it.
- I'll invite you. It's tasty. - I am excited.
- Don't be so excited about it. - Why?
Doenjangjjigae isn't hard to make.
You're getting too excited about mear doenjangjjigae.
You never reacted like this when you watched me cooking.
She used good ingredients such as anchovies.
- She used good ingredients. - I will grow anchovies at home.
- I'll grow them in a fish bowl. - Don't be ridiculous.
- Then I will dry them by myself. - Exactly.
She will use organic anchovies.
I will grow anchovies along with bean sprouts.
You don't have to grow them.
I try hard to keep my figure.
But it's hard for me to lose weight.
My body swells often.
You shouldn't say that.
- She said she weighs only 44.8kg. - I lost weight.
- I used to weigh more. - What was your weight before?
- What was it? - I used to weigh...
- What was your heaviest weight? - My heaviest weight?
It was quite high. I am too scared to say it.
Just tell us.
- She's too scared to say it. - Tell us this.
She looks so upset from behind.
Has the first digit of your weight ever been five?
No.
(Please don't hurt me.)
We shouldn't have talked about this.
I weighed 46kg when I was in 3rd grade.
I weighed 61kg when I was in 6th grade.
- It's okay. - I am embarrassed.
(Chae A is preparing to go out.)
(Brushing her teeth)
(She cleans the sink while rinsing her mouth.)
She won't clean the sink, will she? She is.
- She is cleaning the sink. - Please stop cleaning.
I didn't know I clean that much.
(Satisfied)
(How does an actress put on makeup?)
(Step one. Apply lip balm.)
(Step two. Apply lipstick.)
(All she needs is those two.)
I didn't see you wash your face.
- I will be back soon. - I don't wash up in the morning.
What are you talking about? She just brushed her teeth.
- Wow. - See you later.
(Please come home early.)
(Chae A enjoys driving.)
She is going out without wearing makeup.
She didn't even wash her face.
I didn't do anything much.
Why am I so tired?
I don't want to go.
(Chae A is on her way somewhere.)
I thought Chae A was singing.
- Me too. - Right?
(She likes sentimental songs.)
The memories of you
Keep breaking my heart
- Oh, my goodness. - You shouldn't have sung.
- You just ruined a great song. - You shouldn't have.
- It was so embarrassing. - I thought...
Didn't someone step on her foot?
That was funny.
It was shocking.
(While singing a song...)
(she arrives at the boxing gym.)
What's that place?
- It's a boxing gym. - A boxing gym?
- Hello. - You learn boxing?
- Hello. - It's unexpected.
- How are you feeling today? - I am...
not feeling well.
(I am not feeling well.)
I always feel unwell.
I thought she would choose something like yoga.
- Pilates or yoga. - That's right.
(Chae A changed into her training suit.)
- It's cold. - You should warm up your body.
I should start quickly. I am so cold.
- It's cold today unlike yesterday. - Right.
Ready, go.
(She starts with warm-ups.)
Today is Valentine's Day. Don't you have any plans?
I came here to work out.
Don't people work out on Valentine's Day?
- It's sad that she has no date. - It's the day you work out.
(I don't care about Valentine's Day.)
That's how I think of it.
(Her trainer motivated her to work hard.)
Jang Hyuk suggested I learn boxing.
I hate starving myself. I hate exercising too.
But I lack physical strength now.
So I have no choice but to work out.
- Her stance is good. - The more I work out,
the stronger I feel.
- She is good. - You should turn your back foot.
- You know that? - I do.
(He's proud of himself.)
Okay. Good job. Take a break,
- and we will train in the ring. - Okay.
(Serious)
- She is now in the ring. - Start attacking.
- You are good. - Aren't I?
That's really hard to do.
(I will show you my strong punch.)
- Look at her punch. - She is really good.
(This is how Actress Han Chae A maintains her physical strength.)
That's good. Keep going.
Do a barrage of jabs.
(Punching)
I think she is as good as Cho Hye Ryeon.
- It's really exhausting. - You get worn out.
(Exhausted)
You are warmed up now, aren't you?
- Yes, I am. - It's just the beginning.
- That was a very long warm-up. - Is this only the beginning?
(The training hasn't even started.)
(All right. Bring it on.)
(It requires agility.)
No wonder she didn't put on makeup.
That's good way to lose weight.
(She can't let her guard down.)
(Avoiding)
Her concentration is good.
When you are too tired, you can't avoid it even if you see it coming.
That's right. You need concentration.
(Hold on. I am exhausted.)
Let's do it together this time.
Let's start. Stand up.
- Please go easy on me. - Okay.
(They practise it together this time.)
Wait. What should I do?
Oh, my goodness.
(It scares me.)
- Hold on. - Her trainer won't go easy on her.
It's no joke.
(It moves much faster than earlier.)
(Spinning)
Goodness. He is tough.
- He won't go easy on her. - He won't go easy on her.
It passed by right in front of my eyes.
It was so close to my face.
Did you see a ghost?
Let me start this time.
I should keep it on my side first.
Here we go.
(What is she doing?)
(Laughing)
- Oh, my gosh. - She looks ugly.
She almost lost a tooth.
(What was that?)
(Flailing)
(She doesn't know what to do.)
(Screaming)
(She is exhausted.)
Hang on.
(She feels humiliated.)
I'm exhausted, too.
I lost control for a moment.
I thought you were going to really punch me.
- What? - I thought you would punch me.
(She feels ashamed.)
I'm exhausted.
- We have one more set to go? - Yes.
You are going to hit the punching bag now.
(It is time for a warm down.)
Control your strength. Good.
It doesn't seem to end.
- It's until the bell rings. - Yes, it is very hard.
It is exhausting.
Keep punching.
Good.
Keep up.
Okay.
(She is upset.)
What was that?
It's how I end the session.
You did a good job today.
- I really pushed myself today. - I could see that.
- Really? - Yes.
I don't do that very often.
- Thank you. - Good job.
See you.
That was amazing.
Could you teach us a little?
- You are not professional, but... - First, relax your shoulders.
My trapezius muscles are tight.
He has narrow shoulders.
I know. I'm out of shape.
- Do you want me to teach you? - Just the stance.
- Please stand up. - I'm wearing high heels.
- Just a little bit. - What should I do?
- Stand like this. - The basic moves.
- Put your feet apart. - Okay.
- Spread your legs. - Okay.
And take steps.
(Extend the arm to throw a jab.)
Jab.
You need to bend your legs.
- To the back. - Yes.
And turn your hips.
(There is one student who stands out from the rest.)
Okay. Good.
Great.
I thought you were Tyson.
What?
- I'm just copying her. - I'm sorry.
I could feel the wind from your punches.
(This is so funny.)
- Please continue. - And...
the power shouldn't be coming from your arms.
It should be a snapping punch.
You should twist your body...
- and pivot. - Okay.
Like this.
Good.
(Gook Ju is on fire.)
Look at her.
(Her punch is intimidating.)
Punch!
(Gook Ju is a born fighter.)
Why I don't lose weight even when I do this?
(Chae A is back home.)
I'm tired.
It's dripping with sweat.
What is that thing on the wall?
- It's a mini washing machine. - Okay.
I use it to wash my clothes straight away.
- Like towels and underwear. - Yes.
Wow, is it a washing machine?
I use it to wash things like underwear.
Hey!
She did it again?
She pees there all the time.
She knows she made a mistake.
Come here.
(Soon Shim is not here.)
Come here.
I said come here.
- Soon Shim, come here. - You are luring her.
It works.
I got you. What's this?
(She manages to catch the dog.)
Look at it.
You ran away.
(Soon Shim is frozen.)
She's so cute.
She looks cute.
- Soon Shim is so cute. - Will you do it again?
Don't stick your tongue out.
It looks like you are mocking me.
Stand up straight.
(Chae A disciplines Soon Shim.)
Stand up straight.
- Soon Shin looks like a person. - She is cute.
- She's reading Chae A's expression. - She looks so cute.
I spend all day cleaning up after you.
Don't do it again.
You promised me.
Come here.
(I won't do it again.)
She is so adorable.
That's what it's like to have a pet.
- Don't do that again. - She is so cute.
(She makes peace with a kiss.)
I can't believe this.
I have a lot of things to do.
(She bought some lamps a few days ago.)
Can I...
(She is worried.)
Can I really do it?
Look. It is dark. It's darker than before.
(I've never done this before.)
Can I do it?
- What are you doing? - What is that?
- Are you fixing it? - You're going to change it?
- You need a man to do it for you. - I know.
- I studied electrical engineering. - I should have been there.
- Did you really? - I studied electrical engineering.
You don't an engineering degree for changing lights.
(They're competing against each other.)
(She give it a try.)
(Is this right?)
Oh my gosh.
I did it. Now I know how to do it.
(She passes the first challenge.)
This one is burnt out.
I should turn it off first.
(She turns off the light first.)
(Calmly,)
(she tries to take out the lamps.)
Where is it?
(And...)
(Pressing)
Okay. I did it.
If I live alone for a long enough,
I would even be able to build a house.
(She is bluffing.)
- Wow, it is very bright. - She did it.
- She is good at it. - It is bright.
(She picks up the lampshade.)
It is dirty.
She noticed it was dirty.
If I were her, I'd probably ignore it.
- Okay. - You'd ignore it.
You won't see it once you put it back on the ceiling.
I will just put it back.
(It is finally done!)
- The light went out! - What happened?
What's wrong?
I'm scared.
- Yes, I was scared. - It is nothing.
The light is out because of the loose contact.
The lamp needs to click in place.
It was too loose.
You need to do it after turning the switch off.
- What's wrong? - She should turn off the light.
It became scary all of a sudden.
(Calm down, Chae A.)
(She is worried.)
She can't finish things in one go.
It takes her several tries.
(It always seems to take her a long time.)
Did I do something wrong?
(She tries it again.)
Let's switch it on.
Good.
(She feels relieved.)
I need to make sure this part clicks in place.
I'm tired.
(My arms hurt.)
Right here... And here.
(Now I know how to do it.)
- It is her second try. - I think...
- I'm scared. - Oh, no.
I really want to help her.
Any guy would want to help her.
She's upset.
(Flickering)
What's wrong with it?
(Is it sensitive to touch?)
(She is struggling alone in the dark.)
Please.
My arms were sore because I had just worked out.
- It was so hard. - I understand.
(What on earth is the problem?)
(She turns the light back on again.)
(Why isn't it working?)
What should I do?
What do I do?
What should I do?
(She is embarrassed.)
I'm not good at doing things that require patience.
I get frustrated.
To be honest, I like living alone.
But for times like when I need to change ceiling lights...
or when I need to fix something,
- I don't like being alone. - She needs someone.
Sometimes it makes me feel...
sad about living alone.
That's why women like men who studied engineering.
It depends on the man.
Women like good-looking men who studied engineering.
I thought she was ironing. She spits so much.
(I didn't do that.)
She laughed while looking at my face.
It sounded like you were ironing.
(Sighing)
I wish I had a man to help me right now.
I will ask Yoon Kyung to help me.
I'm sure Yoon Kyung can do it.
What time is it now?
(Yoon Kyung should be here by now.)
(I will cook something for her.)
(She starts cooking for her guest.)
Who is it?
(Someone is here!)
(She hurries over.)
Stop barking. People don't like it.
Please.
Hello!
She kept barking because of you.
- She barked because of her. - I can't believe this.
- Hello. - What is that?
- It is something for my work. - Is she your high school friend?
Yes.
You are so cute.
- Your friend is pretty. - I'm hungry.
- She is pretty. - Are you hungry?
I was really busy.
Before we eat,
- do you know how to change lights? - I do.
- Really? - Of course.
What is so difficult about that?
I bought some new lights...
- and changed them myself. - Okay.
- I put all them in. - Okay.
And the light came on...
for all three of them.
But the light went out after I put this back on.
The light went out? Maybe you have a problem with the stabiliser?
I put them in place, but...
the light doesn't... Oh.
(The light is back on.)
- I told you. - We're all the same.
She is so clumsy.
- What's wrong with you? - The light really did go out.
Let's change the bulbs first.
That's okay. These are new.
I will tell you what to do.
Why does changing lights take so long?
- It's taking way too long. - I know.
- Come here. - Do you want me to put this in?
- I can't do this. - Okay.
The light goes out whenever I touch it.
(She is worried.)
I'm sure I did it correctly.
Is that it?
(Will it work this time?)
- It's done. - You did it.
- It's done. - It's so easy.
You did change the lights yourself.
How did you do that?
You did all the work.
It didn't work when I tried to do it.
- Thank you. - No problem.
(She finally managed to change the lights.)
She fixed it.
I did.
(She doesn't understand how they feel.)
Now we have no reason to go over to your house.
(She looks happy.)
- I want you to boil this. - Okay.
- I will make jeotguk. - Okay.
Make me a tasty jeotguk.
- Are you from Gyeongsang Province? - You know what jeotguk is!
- What is jeotguk? - It is a sauce.
It is very delicious.
I'm glad that you are here.
I was in a state of panic.
Everything is fine now.
Do you have jeotguk?
Do you still have the jeotguk your mum gave you?
I can't imagine...
my house without jeotguk.
Jeotguk is all I need.
I'm drooling.
- Are you done with the vegetables? - Yes.
(Chae A puts the vegetables back into the freezer.)
Why do I have so many things to do at home?
It's just your personality.
You can't stand your house becoming messy.
I have too many things to do at home.
Pardon?
I live alone,
but I still have so much laundry.
There's so much to do at home.
- Imagine if I had a baby. - Oh, no.
Let's say you are married and have a baby right now.
Would you be a good housewife?
Of course.
(She sounds very confident.)
Let's get married first.
I think I would make a good wife.
(It is time to grill the meat.)
I will grill the meat now.
- This is what I like to see. - She is grilling the meat!
Gook Ju finally starts talking.
She is grilling the ribs!
Nothing in the house had interested me until now.
I finally get to see something beautiful.
(They set the table with a generous meal.)
Didn't you say you were on a diet?
- Beef doesn't make you fat. - It doesn't.
I didn't eat rice.
You cut down on your carbohydrate intake.
(It's yummy.)
It is delicious. Is this myungi namul?
You have so many side dishes at home.
I eat like this all the time.
Good for you.
Don't you feel lonely when you eat alone?
I cry while I eat.
- But I don't stop eating. - I see.
This is so delicious.
(She dips the beef into the jeotguk...)
(takes a big bite.)
(She loves beef.)
- She eats the beef with vegetables. - Yes.
(She knows how to eat beef.)
I think Yu Ri is here.
(Barking)
Soon Shim, why are you barking?
Do you know who it is?
- Hello. - Soon Shim is excited to see you.
- Soon Shim! - Do you know who she is?
Something smells good.
- It smells good. - Yu Ri is here.
- Hello. - Hi.
- You didn't have to bring anything. - Take a seat, Yu Ri.
I brought some kimchi.
- I don't have anything to cut it. - Thank you.
Oh no.
- Isn't this a little sad? - Did you eat dinner?
It is Valentine's Day.
- I know. - There are no cars on the street.
No, it took 30 minutes for me to get here.
I see. They go out at night.
I think people went on a date last night.
- But still... - Today is Valentine's Day.
Yes.
People are probably indoors right now.
(Bursting into laughter)
- What does that mean? - I don't know.
I know what she means.
My brother was very excited when I told him I was coming here.
He wants to see you.
- Me? - He is a man.
- Everyone wants to see her. - How old is he?
He was born in 1990.
(She is disappointed.)
He's not that young.
- How old is he? - He is 27.
Is he 27 years old?
I'm okay with that.
- Do you like younger men? - Sure.
(Why not?)
A 27-year-old man is too young even for me.
Hey!
A man who's 27 is old enough.
If he were 26, he would be too young.
- It is okay if he is older than 27. - I have a brother.
Are you in your mid-30s yet?
- I'm in my mid-30s. - Are you in your mid-30s?
- She is. - I'm 33.
(She is 33.)
Actually, 35 in Korean age.
She felt guilty.
Here is the thing.
I never imagined that...
I'd be living alone at the age of 35.
- I understand. - It had never crossed my mind.
I know.
- I thought I'd get married at 28. - Me too.
Things have changed a lot.
When we were young, people got married when they were 25 or 26.
But people are getting married like 10 years later now.
- 35 is the new 25. - 10 years?
- 10 years! - 10 years later?
That's what I talk about with my friends all the time.
They're talking about the exact same thing.
"Things have changed."
"We will live until we're 100 years old."
(Life is long.)
Don't you feel lonely?
I do feel lonely sometimes.
Then I call Chae A.
And Chae A calls me when she feels lonely.
I meet her on every New Year's Day.
We've been doing it for years. We spent New Year's Day together.
It's how we get over being lonely.
What do you do together?
- We drink. - We drink.
I even met her after the awards ceremony.
We did. We met on December 31st.
You looked so beautiful at the awards ceremony.
I was surrounded by a lot of actors that evening.
When I came home, I immediately took a shower.
Then I went to a sushi restaurant with her,
and we drank soju together.
When you were young, and if you looked pretty that night,
- you'd have gone out with a man. - I know!
I would have had to go on a date.
When I was younger I didn't want to remove my makeup.
But now I remove it immediately.
I just want to wash the makeup off my face.
- My eyes get tired from the makeup. - That's right.
(Look at her posture.)
This chair is too high.
- Is there a difference? - What?
Do things change as you get older?
You can see everything about a man as you get older.
You can tell what kind of person he is.
You can tell how he has lived his life...
and even how he will live his life in the future.
I bet that's why it is hard for you to date a man when you get older.
But I still have hope...
that I will meet someone...
- whom I want to spend my life with. - Someone you can relate to.
When you date a man,
you don't want other people to see you on a date.
- Are you okay about that? - It's not a problem for me.
They say they are okay...
with it at first. But as time passes,
they want to go places and hold hands...
with their girlfriend just like what other people do in public.
Eventually, they blame me...
for everything.
- And I feel bad. - I see.
I feel bad.
That's why...
my relationships never lasted that long.
You don't even start a new relationship easily.
What did you say?
You don't get into a new relationship easily.
- You know what? - This looks good.
When I drink beer at home after work,
- it's makes me feel so happy. - I know.
So I used to drink a beer every night after work.
Then I gained so much weight. So I stopped doing it.
Did you know that...
it is almost...
the end of February?
One-sixth of this year has passed already.
She's right.
I can't stop thinking about my age.
People ask me my age all the time.
I was worried about her when she decided to join "Real Men".
I saw her picking her nose in the army.
She was going to be acting in a historical drama after it.
- I was worried if it'd be okay. - I was worried about it, too.
And I was also going to play a beautiful woman in the drama.
A beautiful woman can pick her nose.
I used to think I needed to look pretty in the drama.
But I don't think that way anymore.
I don't think about looking pretty.
I just want to act really well.
You want to show your range as an actress.
I like that you're pushing yourself.
Your acting has gotten much better.
- It has. - You're fun to watch.
We can see you want to do well.
You weren't interested...
in anything when you were a student.
I'm so happy that she has found something.
I have high expectations for her this year.
Don't expect anything.
I will keep my eyes on you.
They are good friends.
Now that I think about it, I used to act without thinking too much.
Then I had an opportunity to act in the drama,
"Bridal Mask".
When I watched myself in that drama much later,
I couldn't stand how badly I had performed in it.
It was such a great role.
But I ruined it.
I regretted.
I didn't want to have regrets ever again.
From then on,
I tried harder to change myself for the characters I play.
And I began to take acting more seriously than before.
You should go home and sleep.
- Thank you for the dinner. - Thank you for the dinner.
- Okay. - Thank you.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Let's go.
- I will see you later. - Bye.
- Bye. - Bye.
(What will Chae A do now?)
(She washes her face.)
(Washing thoroughly)
It's hot.
- She's so clumsy. - She struggles again.
(If you remove your makeup well like Chae A,)
(you can have fair skin like hers, too.)
Look at her face.
She looks so pretty without makeup on.
Which facial mask...
should I use today?
I'll try the reinvigorating facial mask today.
- Here it is. - You do use facial masks.
- I do it everyday. - You do look after your skin.
(She's putting on the facial mask.)
Her face is too small.
- The masks are too small for me. - Me too.
Me too. My face is too long.
- Gosh. She just folded the mask. - That's what I mean.
- She folded the mask on her cheek. - She did.
I've never seen a face that small before.
(She uses the leftover to moisturise her face.)
(She's on her way to relax now.)
(She's getting a massage with Soon Shim.)
Do you use the massage chair everyday?
- No. I use it often on my day offs. - I see.
(Soon Shim won't leave Chae A's side.)
Come closer.
(They lie in bed together.)
(Why would she watch a movie when she's about to sleep?)
("Total Eclipse" starring Leonardo DiCaprio)
(The movie was released in 1995.)
This is such an old movie.
(She watches classic movies to improve her acting.)
(What is Han Chae A's single life like?)
At first, it was quite hard and I often felt lonely.
I cried a lot as well, and I just couldn't get used to living alone.
Now I'm used to it, and I have...
loving friends by my side.
Most importantly, I have a job that I love.
At the moment, I'm satisfied with my life.
Are you watching this?
(That was a day in the life of the actress, Han Chae A.)
We enjoyed that.
So, that's how you were living your life.
Do you have any future goals?
What are your goals for the next 10 years?
I have done auditions and studied acting...
and I started from minor roles.
My career has been like a ladder. I have been climbing upwards...
and I feel like I am still climbing.
For the next 10 years, I want to keep climbing upwards...
- and grow even more as an actor. - Step by step.
I want to keep on learning and continue to show you more of me.
I hope you that you do keep moving forward...
and become one of the top actresses in Korea.
Thank you for your time.
- Welcome to the club. - Thank you.
(I Live Alone)
I should get ready to go out.
(He's getting ready.)
(He hasn't had a day off in a long time.)
What should I wear?
(The doorbell rings.)
They are here!
(Running down the stairs.)
- What's up? - Hello.
(His friends are here to visit him.)
- No, wait. - What?
- What's wrong? - Did you buy new clothes?
- I wear them all the time. - They look new.
Hello, there.
- I couldn't come empty-handed. - Hey, wait.
Did you also buy new clothes? I haven't seen those.
I was going to wear something casual,
but it seems like I have to dress up too.
- Gosh. - You look good.
Right. What's up with the fur?
- Why are you all dressed up? - I should dress up.
- Is it because we're going out? - Yes.
They are...
my closest friends I've known for 15 or 16 years.
Tae Sung, Bong Hwa and I met...
in a dance team when we were younger.
I have "Family" written in front of their names on my phone.
"Family Bong Hwa," "Family Tae Sung" and "Family Yeong Gyu".
When we had first moved to Seoul, we relied on each other...
and promised we'll get through this in a small flat we use to live in.
They are my precious friends.
What's this?
- This is a carp-shaped jelly. - I see.
This is rotten tofu.
- Do you mean stinky tofu? - That's right.
This is famous. I've got one more thing to give you.
No, thank you.
You're not meant to eat this.
- These are ducks' necks. - What?
This is the neck.
This is the head.
No, it's the neck.
It's a whole duck is in a box. It's like a complete set.
This is duck skin.
You bought a whole animal.
- I couldn't afford these back then. - True.
We would go to a small bakery in the neighbourhood.
What are you talking about?
We bought bread at a convenience store.
Also, we used to drink coffee...
at a billiard room.
Coffee was free of charge in there.
Here's a tip.
If you ever suddenly crave some coffee,
then just go to a realtor's office.
- You go in there... - Like you're looking for a room?
and ask, "Do you have a studio flat available?"
That's how you get a free cup of coffee.
By the way, I saw you rapping on the Chinese show.
Were you really rapping live?
- Of course, I did. - Wow.
There wasn't any lip sync.
It's a contest, so you really have to do everything.
What I appreciate the most is...
I was on the first and second most searched person in real time online.
Isn't that something I should be proud of?
We can't watch you on TV because it's a Chinese show.
So when I saw your name on the most searched person,
I was worried that you might be in an accident or something.
I thought you got in a trouble.
"Did something happen to him?"
"Did he do something to someone he didn't like?"
Don't bring up my past.
I'm not the troublesome Chi Yeul anymore.
Can I drink some water?
Sure.
Don't drink tap water.
Doesn't everyone own a water purifier at home these days?
I once saw him drinking tap water while he was taking a shower.
- He doesn't know how to use it. - Over there.
Push the blinking button.
- This one? - Yes.
The machine talks and it's a woman.
Does she talk to you so you won't be lonely?
Probably.
- Warning. The water is hot. - Listen.
- We no longer need to... - Hi there, water purifier.
drink tap water while we're in the shower.
This living room is about the size of the flat we use to live in.
Right.
We didn't have a drying rack back then.
You cleaned up for us.
We dried our laundry...
with the neighbour lady together.
I wonder how we managed to live there.
How did we do our laundry?
We hand-washed our laundry.
- We didn't have a washing machine. - Right. We didn't have one.
- We had a washbowl instead. - A big one.
- A red one. - We had a big red washbowl...
- and hand washed our clothes. - We washed the bedding, too.
We washed the laundry like this.
- The washbowl was like a tub. - Afterwards, we had to...
- squeeze the laundry with hands. - Right.
So I kept telling you we needed to get a washer.
A used washer only cost about 90 dollars at that time.
I was looking to buy a used one online.
- Did he stop you from buying? - So I told him,
"I'm sick of squeezing the laundry."
Because I had to keep using my hands.
My hands were sore, and it was painful.
Look how thick my hands are.
We had what we needed. We did all right.
Are you kidding? My hands were always sore.
I remember I had to wash the laundry twice if it rained.
We feel that we are better off now because we went through that.
I'm happy with my house.
I've succeeded.
I get energy from my friends...
who are always there for me. So I decided to create...
more happy memories with them today.
This is why I called my friends over telling them it's all on me today.
- I've prepared everything. - Is that so?
- Everything is under control. - I hope you don't make us pay.
What are we doing today?
- Wow. - Great. It's a celebrity's car.
(He's showing off with the company's car.)
We have a car today?
- Wow. - Nice.
(This is how to unlock the door.)
(This is how a successful man unlocks the door.)
Get in the car.
(There is one more thing to show off.)
(Laughing)
Wait.
I haven't seen the door open like this.
(This is amazing.)
We should go to a place where there are lots to see.
Let's go to Incheon Chinatown.
- I see. - Let's go there and...
- feel the culture of China. - Right.
- I can't be the only one... - Right.
- to experience Chinese culture. - Indeed.
- Have you guys been there yet? - No, we haven't.
I've visited Incheon only when I go to the airport.
I talk like I've always travelled overseas a lot.
Have you met any celebrities you thought gorgeous?
I don't want to sound like I'm bragging.
Do you still want to hear?
- Go on. - Why not?
- Have you seen Seol Hyun of AOA? - Wow.
I go to the same beauty salon with...
- EXID. - EXID.
- Have you seen them? - Have you?
I haven't met them yet.
- You just know they go there, too. - Yes.
Also, Girls' Generations.
Have you met them?
No, I haven't.
- Who have you met then? - I always stay in a waiting room.
You are no better than us.
There isn't much difference between you and us.
I told you I don't feel like I'm a celebrity even now.
I have to practise again at home after shooting.
The music should start now.
I forgot I'm driving.
We can't listen to music while you are driving?
- We have to pull over then play. - No, not when I'm driving.
It's dangerous to do other things while driving.
I can play music when I'm stopping.
I can't do it now.
(He's cracking up.)
We can play music when we stop.
That joke was smart.
- You know the stuff. - He understood what I meant.
- We can't do it unless we stop. - Is that so?
That's hilarious.
(They play the music while they're stopping.)
Two, three. Let's go!
(Tae Sung dances aggressively.)
(Cute)
- Hey, let's shake the car. - Bring it on.
Do you have to do this?
(Adorable)
(Acting cute)
(My heart is beating)
(Heart pounding)
- This is China here. - This must be the entrance.
(They are surprised.)
This place looks like...
(He is impressed.)
- We are in... - Wow.
Chinatown appeared all the sudden.
(His eyes are wide open.)
We should take a picture here.
(Chinatown in Incheon)
(Chi Yeul worked hard going back and forth between Korea and China.)
(He wants to make good memories with his friends here.)
Let's use the selfie stick.
In 1, 2, 3.
(Chi Yeul will treat his friends to a meal today!)
Choose whatever you want.
You can eat whatever you want.
Dad, buy me this please.
- Stop embarrassing us. - I want this.
- Let's go. - Look at this.
- What is it? - It's really popular in China.
It's a hairpin. It looks like a plant...
growing on top of your head.
- You look so cute. - I do?
There's a mushroom hairpin, too.
Can we get these four please?
(Chi Yeul also buys them hairpins.)
Let's take a picture before we eat.
Let's take a picture here.
In 1, 2, 3.
(They take pictures together everywhere they go.)
That's good.
(It's time for lunch.)
Choose whatever you want.
- All right. - I don't even need to see the menu.
- I'll have the most expensive dish. - You mean jajangmyeon?
I'll have the Sichuan sweet and sour pork.
Okay.
Can we order one sweet and sour pork each?
- We should. - Right.
Your going to eat the whole dish by yourself?
- What did you say? - Don't stutter.
- Calm down. - What did you say?
When poor people like us eat a lot of fancy food suddenly,
our stomach can't handle the food.
I will have jajangmyeon.
- I will have jjamppong. - One jjamppong and...
- one fried rice please. - Fried rice.
Can we also get some hot tea please?
- Did you speak in Chinese? - Hot tea?
- Yes, please. - Okay.
- What did you say? - What does it mean?
I asked her to give us some hot tea.
(That's hilarious.)
- You sounded intelligent. - Absolutely.
You should never stop learning new things.
She understood me.
Why are you laughing?
(Because he looks so funny.)
The flower moves when his head moves.
Let's all put them on. Where are the hairpins?
- Where did I put them? - It will be a good memory.
Let's put them on and take a picture together.
- Three of us will make ugly faces. - So only one of us looks good.
- Let's help each other out. - Shall we?
- Yes, let's. - Let's try that.
In 1, 2, 3.
(Get ready and go.)
(The boys with flowers)
(Their food is served.)
(Sichuan sweet and sour pork)
- It's spicy. - It really is spicy.
(It's tasty.)
It's delicious.
(They are enjoying the food with flowers on their heads.)
You can order jajangmyeon in Chinatown.
But they don't actually have this in China.
- I see. - Right.
I was a bit disappointed.
Did you try any exotic delicacy?
They wanted to help me recover,
- so they gave me turtle soup. - For health?
Did you feel stronger after you ate it?
- Did you feel... - I didn't think about that.
(He's embarrassed.)
I didn't need that kind of endurance.
Hello.
(What's going on?)
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
We watched your performance on the show.
There are many Chinese-Korean employees here.
They all know that you won the singing contest in China.
- Thank you. - You were amazing.
- Thank you for this. - Please try this dish.
- Thank you. - Congratulations again.
- Thank you. - Best of luck in the future.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
- Thank you. - Thank you for the food.
- Thank you for the food. - Thank you for the food.
(It was worth winning the contest.)
(Thank you, my friend.)
I did this as a joke.
I pretended to take a heart out of my jacket, and it became popular.
Now it's become my signature pose.
(It's Chi Yeul's signature pose now.)
(Making a heart shape with his finger)
Whenever people see me, they do this.
(People imitate his pose.)
Ta-da.
It's fun.
- Have you ever been on a cruise? - No, I haven't.
I have.
I didn't expect that.
I meant to surprise you.
I was hoping I would be the one to take you on your first cruise.
After thinking carefully about it I haven't been on a cruise before.
(Let's just believe him.)
You thought of a fishing boat, right?
- Was it a paddle boat? - Was that it?
- It must have been a paddle boat. - Right.
- It was a paddle boat. - Right.
- That's not a cruise ship. - Exactly.
It's on me!
Don't forget to take the bill.
Don't forget this.
You forgot to take the bill.
(That was my mistake.)
(Let's go on a cruise ship.)
- It's the sea. - It's the sea.
Do you even know what it is?
Do you know anything about a cruise ship?
- You sound like an expert. - I've been on many cruise ships.
- He did ride on a cruise ship. - That's true.
(It was two months earlier.)
This is nice.
(Chi Yeul went for his first cruise ship ride.)
Among my friends I think I'm the first to ride a cruise ship.
I am on a cruise ship. Do you know what it's like?
You will see what it's like to be on a cruise ship.
All right.
- He is so funny. - We are here.
- We are here. - How many people?
- There are four of us. - That's 64 dollars.
(It's 64 dollars for 4 people.)
It's very expensive.
- How much is it? - It's okay. It's on me.
- You're not crying, are you? - I am fine.
- Your eyes are glistening. - I am fine.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I will keep this as a souvenir.
- It's nice. - Look at the seagulls.
- That's a lot of seagulls. - It's nice.
There are more of them.
- There are more seagulls here. - Let's take a picture.
In 1, 2, 3.
- That's nice. - I like it.
The sun hurts my eyes.
(They are impressed by the scenery.)
Look at the seagulls.
It feels so refreshing.
It's good to see the sea.
It's such a picturesque scenery, right?
(It really is beautiful.)
- Look at that. - It's nice.
The ship is moving.
- You can see it, right? - We are moving.
- Goodbye. - Take care.
Goodbye.
- Goodbye. - Okay.
It's beautiful. It's amazing.
There will be a dance performance by a Russian dance group.
A Russian dance group is going to perform?
- Should we check it out? - Let's go.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
- Let's go. - Let's take a look.
(Let's go.)
We can't miss this.
- Right. - We can't miss it.
(They came to see the Russian dance group's performance.)
- It's starting now. - Right.
The first team to perform is from Ukraine.
They are very charming.
I hear that there are many beautiful women in Ukraine.
- That's right. - I heard it's true.
I am excited.
Please welcome them with a big round of applause.
Please come out.
(They are excited.)
But...
What's this?
I can't believe this.
(The Ukrainian dancers dance energetically.)
(But they don't seem to be enjoying the show.)
(Let's get out of here.)
(They go up to enjoy the scenery.)
Let's go.
Let's feed the seagulls.
- Here we are. - Yes.
- Hurry. Give them some more. - What's going on.
Let's play a game.
We need to get their attention first.
- Let's put snacks on our heads. - On someone's head?
- Yes, on one person's head. - Okay.
- Put it on my head. - Let me try one.
- Try it. It's yummy. - This is fun.
(They are putting snacks on his head for the seagulls to eat.)
- I should just stay still, right? - Stay still.
- You are good to go. - One more.
- Don't move your head. - Fix them on his head.
Okay. Stay still.
- Show the snacks to the seagulls. - I'm not sure if they'll come.
(A seagull takes a snack.)
- It ate it! - Another one is coming.
(Thank you for the treat.)
- You have one left on your head. - Not yet. Stay there.
(A seagull takes the last piece.)
- Did they eat them? - Yes, they did.
- They ate them all? - That's amazing.
(They are excited like children.)
- It works. - They can eat it.
- It's amazing. - They can eat it.
- Exactly. - Here you are.
(Here are snacks for you too.)
- Throw it to me. - Catch it.
Since they are all country boys,
they didn't know much about it.
So I felt like I was their teacher.
I was on this cruise ship with my close friends.
The weather was so nice, too.
We were looking at the sea.
It felt so refreshing and new.
I felt like I was somewhere I had never been before.
I lost track of time.
I had so much fun.
(The sun is setting.)
- The sun is going down. - It's beautiful.
- Thank you. Come again. - Thank you.
We are back on land.
- It was great. - Thank you, Chi Yeul.
- Thank you for the ride. - Hello.
- Is this the main event of the day? - This is a very popular place.
- That's the main event of the day. - That's a good place for a date.
- Exactly. - Here we go.
- I will buy the tickets. - You will?
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Ride whatever you want.
- Okay. Good. - Thank you.
- One for each of you. - Thank you.
We can ride three rides with this ticket. Look at that.
That's the most popular ride.
- Let's ride that. - Okay.
Before we begin,
let's warm up for a bit because it's cold out.
(Warm up?)
(Please, go easy on us.)
Since it's your first time,
I will be gentle.
I am getting nervous.
I am getting really nervous.
Hold on tight.
(Screaming)
(It's scary for the people on the ride.)
(It's fun for the people who are watching.)
(Tae Sung is already exhausted.)
(Chi Yeul helps him so that he doesn't fall off his seat.)
(But he falls.)
(Sliding down)
I feel bad for him.
(Tae Sung is alone.)
You should go back to your friends.
(Tae Sung can't even keep himself steady.)
Stay there. I will just send you down there.
(These three are his new target now.)
(Chi Yeul stands up to save him.)
Oh, wow!
Run!
He ran away.
(That's hilarious.)
They're excluding you, Chi Yeul.
Come up here.
(Are you kidding me?)
- This is a final round. - Oh, it's moving again.
- Hang in there, everyone. - Oh, no!
(It's speeding up.)
- Let's just have some fun. - Wow!
(Tae Sung has a cramp in his arm.)
The man with a moustache, are you okay?
(He's too tired to answer him.)
You can go now.
- Bye! - That was fun.
- It was fun. - Oh, goodness.
Wow, it was fun.
(But their arms still hurt.)
- Let's go on the Viking ride. - The Viking ride?
Yes.
(Chi Yeul is the only one who is ready.)
- That's too much. - We have to ride it!
- How about that one? - Which one?
- That small one? - No, we can't.
- Let's see. - Let's take a look.
Are you kidding me? It's for kids.
Leave them alone!
- Let's go back to the Viking ride. - We have to ride it.
- I'm nervous. - You have to go on Viking ride...
at any amusement park.
Wolmido Theme Park is famous for this Viking ride.
Don't worry. We can do it.
- Cheer up! - Cheer up!
You can do it!
Let's go.
We should make a bet. Do you have any ideas?
- Let's play "the 31 game". - Yes, let's do that.
- Good. - Okay.
The loser will get a flick on the forehead.
- Let's start from him. - Yes, we'll start from the right.
Okay.
- We're counting up to 31. - If you say 31 you lose.
Okay, avoid 31. Let's go.
Let's go.
Whoever says the number 31 will lose, okay?
- Remember 31. - Okay.
(He doesn't like the Viking ride.)
(The higher it goes the Viking boat goes...)
It's moving. It feels so weird!
(Chi Yeul and Yeong Gyu are enjoying this.)
(Tae Sung manages to breathe in and out.)
Let's start "the 31 game".
(The game begins now.)
One!
Two.
And 3, 4, 5.
And 6, 7, 8.
In 9 and 10.
Say it. You can do it!
It's okay!
You can do it!
Stop it. Stop it.
Don't worry.
Stop it. I want to get off.
- Wow! - Stop!
Stop.
I've had enough!
Please stop the Viking ride.
I've had enough.
Stop the ride, please.
- Oh, goodness. - What a fast ride.
- It was too fast. - Wow.
(They couldn't finish the game.)
- You have to breathe. - I'm used to this.
Try to breathe.
Tighten your core and breathe.
(As soon as the ride stops,)
- This Viking ride goes up so high. - I need to go to the toilet.
That was fun.
(they get away from the Viking ride in hurry.)
Oh, dear.
I'm okay. I survived.
- Keep breathing. - Are you really okay?
- You have to breathe. - Oh, my.
Let's move on. This is so much fun.
- This is so much fun! - Let's continue.
We're all pumped up now.
(Where are you taking me?)
I don't understand why people pay money to ride this.
(There's no exception.)
Let's go.
Is this normal?
Shouldn't it be tighter? Isn't yours tight?
- Is it? - Here we go!
- It's meant to be a little loose. - Let's go.
Here we go.
We're going up!
Why is it not going up?
Maybe they're going to count us down.
- Maybe they will count. - Oh, no!
(The ride begins without any warning.)
(They go up to 40m in a split second.)
(It was an unexpected start.)
(And they fall just as unexpectedly as before.)
(He is afraid and he is ecstatic.)
(They go back up again.)
- Wow! - Look at that!
(Chi Yeul is enjoying the night view of the city.)
(Tae Sung is fighting a battle against himself.)
This is amazing.
Is it over already?
- Of course, it's over. - It's over?
(It's over.)
I don't think theme parks and I are compatible.
- Don't you think so? - What's going on?
- Wow. - Are we going one more time?
- Really? - Why?
- I thought we were done. - One more round.
- Let's go for one more round. - Why?
You can do it, Tae Sung.
(He can't hear him.)
(Here goes another merciless launch.)
(They're feeling the same thrill again.)
(I shouldn't have become friends with him 16 years ago.)
(Look where it has brought me.)
(Try to enjoy it, Tae Sung!)
I've had enough of it.
Please, stop this ride.
Stop. Stop.
- Stop. - Wow.
This was fun.
Yes, this was so much fun.
- It's been so long since I rode it. - Let's stop now.
Sir?
- Excuse me? - Sir?
- Yes, it's over. - It's over.
- It's over. - You can get off now.
It was fun!
It was fun.
The last ride of the day was...
- a good choice! - Good choice.
No, it wasn't a good choice!
Be careful.
- Let's not come here ever again. - He looks sick.
We should meet up in billiard halls.
We should just play pool and...
- drink coffee. - Yes.
- That sounds dangerous. - No, what do you mean?
Billiard halls are great.
- Let's go eat dinner. - Yes, let's eat.
- Let's have some grilled clams. - Yes, we came all the way here.
- Wow. - I...
will pay for the grilled clams, too!
- Bang, bang! - Bang!
- Wow. - Are you sure?
- He's spending so much money. - Hello.
- Hello. - This is too much.
I had so much fun today.
It's been such a long time since we went to a theme park.
When I go back to Gwangju, I'm going to ask people,
"Have you ever been on a cruise ship?"
(Have you ever been on on a cruise ship?)
There are no cruise ships in Gwangju.
"I've also fed seagulls on a cruise ship."
"Have you done that before?"
- Your face looks... - Wow!
(Chi Yeul is so impressed by the mountain of clams.)
(It's a huge pile of clams.)
Wow. It's a lot.
Bong Hwa, put some clams on the grill here.
- This is amazing. - I feel like all...
the stress I got from competing in China...
is finally disappearing.
I think these are still alive.
I feel like all of my stress is melting away.
(He got to play like a kid with his friends today.)
(His appetite is back too.)
(It's like they have gone back to a time when they were together.)
I think memories are a scary thing.
When I won the competition in China,
I wished my family and friends could be there with me.
It would have been so much fun together.
We could have celebrated it together.
- But when I came home, - No one was there.
no one was there.
You must have been very lonely.
Yes, I was.
Since you were in China alone...
appearing on many TV programmes,
we were able to read about you online.
Yes.
(His friends mean a lot to him.)
He's right.
I am a very lively person, but...
when it comes to my work,
I tend to shut people out.
But my friends were there...
supporting me. It made me feel good.
They reminded me of how important it is to stay humble.
Have you recently taken a real break?
I've been on a break for nine years.
You're right. You've had enough rest.
(Chi Yeul's night is happier when he is with his friends.)
Welcome to Kim Dong Wan's ski camp!
(His actions have become more intense than ever.)
(And his slapstick comedy is funnier than ever.)
- Are you okay? - I can't stop.
I can't stop, Dong Wan!
I'm okay!
(This year is full of laughter too.)
(Young Chul and his mum went on a tour around Seoul.)
Why don't you come to Seoul once a month for this?
I don't need it.
- It was nice to meet you. - Thank you for your time!
(Young Chul wants to make his mum feel beautiful for one day.)
(I look so pretty.)
A son is better than a daughter, right?
Yes, a son is better.
