This week's story on Rainbow Club.
Just like the weather, their passion heats up.
They spend their days passionately.
When they work, they work hard. But they play even harder.
Bring it on, waves.
The men have gone to try surfing.
This is romance itself. It's how a man is supposed to be.
(He's helpless among the waves.)
Men are sexy when they're working.
He transformed into a musical actor and immerses in acting.
(You'll get beaten up if your acting is bad.)
For the prefect performance,
he puts his soul into music.
I'm Jeongneung's Won Bin.
(I look just like him.)
Also,
I got emotional during my last radio recording.
I tried to hold my tears for the last goodbye.
I didn't know it would happen.
(He bursts into tears. What happened?)
I Live Alone, "We Are Passionate Men".
We're passionate men
That's hot.
(It's still chilly in the morning in front of Hyun Moo's place.)
(Snoring)
(His manager is waking him up early in the morning.)
(Is it time already?)
Yes.
(His voice is hoarse.)
(He's trying to warm up his throat.)
(Half asleep)
(I don't have time for this.)
(He finally escapes from his bed.)
(His mind is confused and his face is swollen.)
(He heads to the washroom with his eyes half closed.)
Today is the last day I'll be...
doing the radio show I've been on for 2 years and 9 months.
A lot of people liked it, so it was hard for me to let go.
Those who tune in might have noticed,
but my throat has been bad since around March this year.
I was doing the radio show on top of other shoots every day.
I tried taking medication and shots, but nothing worked.
That's what I get asked by text all the time.
Well...
It used to be, "Good morning, Hyun Moo."
Now it's,
"How is your throat today?"
Or they would comment and tell me that it still sounds bad.
It's my job to take care of myself,
but I wasn't able to do that. I feel bad about it.
I've been feeling bad every day for the past few months.
(He decided to quit the radio show.)
I felt that it wasn't right.
(He's cleaning up nicely since it's his last show.)
(What a mess.)
(I wish the swelling would go away.)
(Making sounds)
(His voice doesn't sound good.)
(Let's see.)
(He has medication piled up on his table.)
(He takes his pills first thing in the morning.)
(Gulping)
(He starts the day with medication instead of a breakfast.)
(Spraying)
(He's spraying medication on his throat.)
(It's not easy to get his voice back.)
(This is going to be a problem.)
As for television, the voice is less important.
You can see the video along with our gestures...
and expressions. There are subtitles and other panellists.
There are a lot of variables.
Whereas with radio, you only hear my voice.
If your voice is bad, then the whole show is bad.
I should be helping people cheer up in the morning.
They're already tired on their way to work with the traffic and all.
I don't want to greet them with this voice and whine about it.
I thought it would only get worse.
That's when I made the decision.
(This will be the last time I go to work at this hour.)
(He's leaving for his last live radio show.)
(It's still early, so the roads are not very busy.)
You've been working so hard.
(Hyun Moo's manager always wakes up earlier than him.)
It's our last drive on Gangbyeon Highway.
I used to always sleep on the way.
(He would often sleep in the car.)
(I can't seem to fall asleep today.)
(Hyun Moo finally arrives.)
(MBC, Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu)
(He's on the 10th floor where the studio is.)
Hello.
It's my last day.
(Good work.)
(This is the master control room for the radio programme.)
- It's my last day. - He's here.
Hello.
- He looks so different. - He feels like a stranger.
I look tired as I always do.
(No, you are usually worse than this.)
(I'll do my best since it's my last show.)
(Dear throat, please hang in there for two hours.)
Did you really not prepare anything?
Then I'll go with my playlist.
(Today, Hyun Moo will personally choose the songs.)
("Jun Hyun Moo's Good Morning, FM")
I'll choose "Lucifer" for the ending song.
(SHINee's "Lucifer")
I think the opening song for the first show was "Lucifer".
- I'll make it our last song. - Okay.
We'll bracket the ends.
(You got some rice cakes.)
(It says it's from your fans.)
Thank you.
(The rice cakes are packaged nicely.)
It's so pretty.
I'll hand it out.
- Give it to the engineers, too. - Okay.
(Thank you, my fans.)
(We live because of you.)
(One minute to air)
(The signal goes off to mark the beginning of the show.)
(On air)
(His final show is on air.)
I would often run in here rushed...
without even brushing my teeth.
Today, I brushed my teeth.
I'm not wearing sweat pants either.
I didn't even sleep in the car.
It's probably the first time in 2 years and 9 months.
We'll start off with one of my favourite songs.
(Let the party begin)
(They're starting the show energetically.)
(I chose the perfect song.)
There are a lot of texts.
(A lot of listeners are sending in texts.)
There are a lot of texts coming in.
I guess you know it's my last day and joined in.
"I'm so sad, I might cry."
"Please come back when you're healthy." Thank you, 4869.
"I wasn't as sad when Lee Moon Se quit his show."
"Since it's your last day, will Cho Sae Ho come?"
I don't think he'll be here.
I can't believe you're still looking for him.
"I set the alarm to make sure to tune in on the show today."
Thank you, Kim So Young. She's our regular listener.
"Thank you, Hyun Moo, I hope to see you again." Kim Sung Ran.
"I don't want to say goodbye," Park Jung Ae.
"I almost cried after I heard your voice."
"I'll listen to full two hours." Kim Jeong Ok.
All of these are familiar names.
Rain or shine, they are the ones...
that would always listen to the show every morning.
We'll be together for two hours today.
We'll share your stories and also take a time to talk over the phone.
I thought it would be proper...
for me to end it with a smile.
I tried to be nonchalant. Actually, I tried to be more cheerful.
Then it suddenly hit me.
I couldn't talk any more.
My heart was throbbing.
The reason why I held it in...
was because I didn't want a sad ending.
I also thought that our listeners wouldn't want that either.
(He wants to show his usual cheerful self.)
Am I the only one that's hot?
(He blames it on the heat to hold back the tears.)
(He's fanning away the tears.)
It's so hot.
(Please, I don't want to cry.)
(I'm not crying right now.)
(The show continues)
A project to help you get to work on time. Get up!
The person I'll be waking up today is...
I picked this person myself.
I'm most worried about this person being on time.
I'm not sure if he will be able to wake up...
on time every day.
He'll be taking over my spot starting Monday.
Let's wake up Noh Hong Chul.
We didn't contact him beforehand.
We'll call him now. If he doesn't pick up, that's it.
(Will Hong Chul be awake?)
His ringtone doesn't suit him at all.
We're connecting to Hong Chul.
Hello?
Hong Chul.
- Hello? - Hong Chul?
Yes.
Why aren't you here?
What?
You're supposed to be on today.
I'm supposed to start on Monday...
Yes, but you were supposed to come and greet our listeners.
The producer said they contacted you.
- No, I didn't know. - What are we going to do?
I didn't know about this.
No? Did your manager forget?
I guess so. I just got a new manager.
What time did you go to bed?
I went to bed at 4am.
How can you do a morning show if you sleep at 4am?
Gosh.
I'll get changed and go there right now.
No, don't bother.
- I'll come. - No, you were fooled.
I got you.
- What do you mean? - It's a lie.
What are you talking about?
Hong Chul, don't bother coming.
- Go back to bed! - I'm so confused.
- I got you, right? - Yes.
We should speak formally.
Yes, we should.
When I read articles about you being late,
I thought you were terrible.
- It's your job after all. - Yes.
- I guess... - Yes.
- it's not that easy. - Not at all.
You need a strict routine.
You need to go to bed early.
You can't be partying until 4am.
I thought I was making another huge mistake.
I was really surprised.
It's a huge mistake if you're late.
Just like 9698 says,
I became Rainbow Club's president after you,
and now you're taking over my radio show.
- You're right. - What a coincidence.
I totally forgot about that.
It's fate.
- Really... - President Noh.
Our...
- President Jun. - Yes.
Just like how you kept the fire going for the programme,
I'll also work hard to keep this fire going.
Great. Now take a deep breath...
- Yes. - and go back to sleep.
Since you woke up from my call, you get 30 coupons for hamburgers.
- I love you! - Bye.
Bye.
(He's worrying me.)
Being late once for a morning show is a traumatising experience.
You sometimes have nightmares of being late.
One time, I woke up at 7:15am on a weekend...
and I almost cried.
My heart was beating so fast.
(I thought I was late.)
I was going crazy by myself at home.
I was rummaging through clothes. My hands were shaking.
It happened about 3 or 4 times.
My biorhythm has been set for the radio show.
I think I'll automatically wake up early for the next few days.
I might take naps, though.
(After almost three years of working for the radio,)
(his throat has become very bad lately.)
(He worked for months while his throat was in a critical condition.)
(Please, hang on a while longer.)
(The show is nearing the end.)
"I'm so sad to let you go after tuning in for two and a half years."
"Thank you, and take care."
Number 2652 was today's first text.
I'm also getting a lot of personal texts.
I got one from my mother.
"Your voice sounds different."
"Consider it as a new beginning instead of an end."
"Even if you're sad, try and be modest."
"Good job, son."
"You should always be thankful..."
"to your listeners and the staff. Work hard until the end."
"I love you, son."
My mother is not very good at saying "I love you".
She sent me a text for the first time.
Sorry...
(What?)
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm trying...
I thought I wouldn't cry...
(I didn't know I'd cry.)
I'm really sorry.
I can barely speak. Some might think that it's a broadcasting accident.
Reading my mother's text...
Sorry about this.
I cried after reading the following text.
I held it in even when I was reading the texts from the listeners.
"I'm really upset."
"It was..."
"It was the only time..."
"I got to meet with my son."
It was the only time she said she got to meet with her distant son.
(I'm really upset. It was the only time I got to meet with you.)
Being busy all the time...
was my excuse, and I rarely visited her.
I...
(It really...)
It makes me look back on my life.
I wonder what it was all for.
I apologise.
I tried so hard to hold it in when I got texts from you guys.
I tried to think of something else...
while putting on funny segments.
I tried to distract myself, but this text...
I couldn't help but cry.
I'm so sorry, everyone.
I'm so sorry. I'll calm down...
and continue on with the show.
(What a crybaby.)
What's wrong?
You're a baby.
Why weren't you good to your mum?
You're always like this.
- Gosh. - What's wrong?
(I shouldn't have read Mum's text.)
You were crying the whole time.
(The others are trying to calm Hyun Moo down.)
You both live in Seoul. You should visit her more often.
Oh, hello. I'm so embarrassed.
I thought it was an accident.
You're 40 years old.
(He's a 40-year-old crybaby.)
This is crazy.
My mother knows me the best.
Only the funny side of me was highlighted on television.
She always felt sorry about that...
because on the radio show, I could show my true worth.
She liked my radio show...
because people seemed to like me more as a radio show host.
Every morning, she would listen to my radio show while cooking.
She has been one of my biggest fans.
I feel so sorry for not telling her...
that I would quit the radio show.
I didn't tell her because I was afraid she might say...
"You can't quit it. You need the job."
"You should keep on hosting your radio show no matter what."
I am so grateful...
that even though I didn't tell her personally,
she didn't say anything when she read the news article.
I think she understood that I had thought it through before deciding.
Today,
I have learned and realised a lot of things.
(The listeners are sad to say goodbye.)
Friday, May 27, 2016.
This was my last radio live show.
It gave me so much strength...
when you told me, "Thank you for giving me energy every morning."
"This is the only radio show I listen to."
"Your show is the only comfort in my life."
Heart-felt messages like these have kept me going...
for the past 2 years and 9 months.
As some of you know, my throat condition has worsened.
I thought I shouldn't go on with a voice like this.
So I decided to leave the show.
I'm sure Noh Hong Chul will do a great job.
The last song is "Lucifer" by SHINee.
I will say goodbye here.
Thank you!
(Goodbye, Hyun Moo.)
- Oh, dear. - Thank you.
- Thank you for your hard work. - Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you.
I'm sorry we can't light the candles.
- What's this? - Open it.
We prepared a meaningful present.
You'll like it.
- Boxers? - No.
- Oh, my. - Sleep as much as you want...
- in those. - They're pyjamas.
(The staff members give him pyjamas.)
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
- Thank you for this. - Goodbye, Hyun Moo.
I will wear them.
We have an appreciation plaque, too.
My goodness.
Thank you.
- Thank you for your hard work. - I wish I could go on.
Here is the appreciation plaque for you.
Thank you very much.
"Presented to DJ Jun Hyun Moo."
"We appreciate your dedication in the past 2 years and 9 months..."
"to make our mornings feel alive."
"May 27, 2016. MBC Radio."
Thank you.
(Hyun Moo receives the appreciation plaque.)
Thank you.
- Let's take a picture together. - Okay.
Thank you so much.
(Hyun Moo has hosted the morning radio show for three years.)
- Good job. - Good job.
(How will his mornings change from now on?)
(Summer is around the corner.)
Let's try on these sunglasses.
The nice, coloured ones.
Let's try them on.
They always put on sunglasses like this in Hollywood movies.
That's nice.
(Chi Yeul is excited.)
They look good on me.
I have another pair.
This is nice.
They will make me look good.
Now I look like a surfer.
Which ones should I put on?
I should get ready. Let's pack my bag.
Pack underwear.
What else?
I don't know what to bring.
He must be here.
Joon?
(The doorbell rings at that moment.)
- Hi, Joon. - What's up?
Hi, Joon.
- It's been a long time. - Hi.
- You can put it here for now. - Okay.
That's nice.
I didn't know you had your own surfboard.
Surfing is very popular among young people these days.
I always keep up with trends as an early adopter.
I was thinking of learning it.
I heard that Joon is very good at surfing.
Today is my day off, and the weather is great today.
I thought it would be nice to learn how to surf.
So I decided to go surfing with Joon.
- How have you been? - It's been ages.
Tae Woo won't be able to fit in here.
- It's unique. - The ceiling is quite low.
- Can I look around? - Sure.
Please come this way.
It's amazing.
Let me see.
You have a lot of healthy food.
That's right. My mother visited just recently.
What kind of drink is this?
- That's soy sauce. - Oh.
I thought it was a healthy drink from your fans.
These eggs are huge.
They're kiwis.
It's because I'm wearing sunglasses.
You're right. They're kiwis.
I thought they were ostrich eggs.
I've never seen a kiwi with such smooth skin.
Maybe, they shaved it.
- Do you know what I mean? - Yes.
- It looks like it's shaved. - That's right.
This is a golden kiwi.
That was funny.
- This is the rooftop. - Oh, my!
It's romantic.
(They go outside.)
It's nice.
You placed your own photos everywhere in your house.
It's good because...
I don't feel like I'm alone.
It feels like someone is out here.
But it's just you.
I don't get it.
That's weird.
(This is Chi Yeul, a friend of Chi Yeul's.)
What should I bring?
You need a pair of boxers.
- I already packed it. - Let me see.
- Here it is. - My goodness! What's this?
Men should wear red underwear.
That's ridiculous. This looks so soft like silk.
(Joon rubs it on his face.)
I think...
I would feel weird if I walk around in these.
It's not static.
I have sunscreen that has colours.
These are called zinc oxide sunscreen.
It blocks the sunlight perfectly.
(It's coloured sunscreen mostly used by surfers.)
(Now he's all geared up.)
You go surfing often.
- I started... - Surfing.
I started surfing even before you were born.
Since 1978.
It means that I've been surfing for 38 years.
Right?
(Joon started learning to surf when he was 10 years old.)
(He will teach Chi Yeul how to surf today.)
- You have big feet like me. - Yes.
I think you'll be good at it.
Thank you for teaching me in advance.
I really think so. I hear there will be big waves.
You'll do great.
(He encourages Chi Yeul.)
- I can do it! - Good!
- Cool. - Let's go.
(Let's go to the ocean.)
Let's go!
The weather is beautiful.
- It's amazing. - Exactly.
- Hey. - Joon, my car is right here.
- Will you drive? - Of course.
(They get in the car with excitement.)
I'll drive you there safely.
All right.
Let's go.
We took another step forward
The day we dreamed of has finally come
(Joon sings his old song.)
Brother, Brother
Show me, Baby
(Joon starts rapping.)
(They're excited to go to the ocean.)
(Joon is good as he was in 1998.)
(Joon dances.)
(Chi Yeul dances, too.)
- This move is like driving a car. - That's right.
(The farther they get from Seoul,)
(the more excited they get.)
It always makes you feel good.
Whenever I go on a trip,
I always grab a bite at a rest stop.
- Me, too. - Right.
It looks delicious.
(They have a hearty meal at the rest stop.)
I have only seen...
surfers in movies.
On a beautiful beach,
there are pretty women.
They watch the guys surfing.
(While pretty girls are watching him,)
(Chi Yeul is surfing big waves.)
(This is what he has in mind.)
- It might happen to me today. - That's right.
Now that we're full,
we're going to empty our bowels.
Then, we'll go surfing...
- with a light heart. - That's right.
- Surfing. - Good.
Surfing.
- Sur... - Sur...
Pull your tongue backwards. Sur...
- Sur... - Fing.
- Fing. - Good.
Great!
I listen to this song whenever I go surfing. It makes me feel...
like I am doing it for the first time.
The song is titled "Feels Like the First Time".
"Feels Like the First Time."
- Yes! This is rock music. - That's right.
(The beat reminds him of his first time for surfing in 1978.)
Yes!
He's sailing across a stormy sea.
For his loved one. That's what this song is about.
(Joon reminisces his first surfing experience.)
(Chi Yeul is excited about his first surfing lesson.)
(The ocean makes their hearts flutter.)
It's the ocean!
(They arrive after three hours driving.)
(The mesmerising blue ocean)
(The beautiful white waves)
(Surfing caught Chi Yeul's attention as today's trendy sport.)
My goodness. That's a big wave.
- What? - Isn't that big?
People call that...
the ankle slapper. Do you know what that means?
It's so small that it can only slap your ankle.
That's a really small one.
(It seems quite big to Chi Yeul.)
How big should it be then?
- This big? - At least,
it should be between 1.5m and 3m.
- That's really big. - However, it's big enough...
- for you to learn to surf. - Okay.
The suit must keep you warm. Everyone is wearing it.
- Let's go. - Look at that.
Let's go and rent a surfboard and a suit.
- Hello. - Hello.
This is...
- Chi Yeul's first time for surfing. - I see.
He needs a long, thick board for a beginner that floats well.
I'll find a surfboard for beginners like him.
- We both need a surfing suit. - Okay.
I'll show you the suits.
- It looks nice. - I think this will fit you.
(They wear suits to keep them warm and safe.)
You can't float on the water?
- I will become a great surfer. - That's good.
There you go. Nice.
- He'll choose one for you. - Please follow me.
That's too big.
A big board is much easier to surf with.
This is a board for beginners.
- For beginners? - Yes.
- It'll be easy for you. - I want a pretty one like yours.
You can't. I just explained to you.
You will sink.
You won't be able to move forward.
- This one floats well. - That's right.
We should apply the sunscreen.
- Right now? - Which colour?
For those who have dark skin like us,
- pink would be nice. - Pink suits our skin colour.
- Pink will look good on us. - That's right.
(Joon is about to apply it on Chi Yeul's face.)
Not on my lips.
You should apply it on your lips. I'll show you.
Apply it on your lips.
(He's applying the sunscreen on his lips.)
(Joon looks like a cartoon character.)
See? Everyone does that.
- Give it a go. - Do people...
- Do people really do this? - Yes.
I haven't seen anyone looking like this in the movies.
Now close your lips.
That's nice.
- I applied a lot of sunscreen. - Okay.
I applied two different types of sunscreen.
- I applied a strong one, too. - Good.
Let me help you.
(He puts a lot on each of his fingers.)
Why do you need so much?
(He's putting it on Joon's face.)
It looks great.
This will leave a mark...
on my face when I get tanned. It won't disappear.
It looks like I have ribs on my face.
- You look amazing now. - I do?
You look like a leopard.
- Really? Just on one cheek? - Yes.
No, I'll paint on both of your cheeks.
(Chi Yeul draws lines on the other cheek.)
You look great.
Okay.
I will apply some more on your face.
There are some parts...
that easily get tanned.
- I don't easily get tanned. - It's okay. Close your eyes.
You have thin eyelids.
(They have fun drawing on each other's face.)
(Giggling)
It feels like you're applying eyeshadow.
(Chi Yeul looks pretty.)
I want to kiss you.
- You're lying. - I'm not.
(He's shocked by the transformation.)
- What's this? - You look pretty.
You look pretty. We're ready now.
Shall we go?
- Let's go. - Let's go. Okay.
Oh, right. Thank you.
This isn't the board that I imagined.
- You'll look great. - Should I hold it like this?
Put it on your head.
Oh gosh. It's heavy.
That's good. You will look so cool walking around like this.
Your silhouette is great.
Let's go. Be careful.
(Struggling)
This isn't what I expected.
- You look so cool. - I do?
Yes. You look amazing.
(Chi Yeul's arms are shaking.)
(It's heavy.)
(Staggering)
(Finally, they're going into the sea!)
- Before we start, - Yes.
- put your board down here. - Okay.
I'm so excited.
My heart is pounding.
Lie down on the board.
Like this.
Put your feet right here.
Lie down on your stomach and lift up...
- your chest like this. - Lifting my head up?
Paddle like this. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
- Should I lift up my upper body? - Yes.
That's good. Try paddling.
Throw the sand to the back.
My back hurts.
You're just raking the sand.
- Shovel up the sand. - Okay.
- Shovel up the sand. - Keep going.
Dig like turtles do when they lay eggs.
Okay.
Dig. I'm a turtle.
- That's good. - I'm a turtle.
That's good. Keep going.
Now you see a big wave coming toward you.
Dig harder!
(He tells Chi Yeul to dig harder.)
Dig twice as faster.
You're close to catching the wave. Paddle faster.
Keep going. Faster.
- Imagine you caught the wave. - Okay.
Show me how you think you should stand up.
In 1, 2, 3. Go!
(Rushing)
I knew it. If you do that, you'd fall and swallow a ton of water.
Look at the board.
- You stood up here. - Yes.
Oh, I should stand at the back.
If you stand here, the board will flip over.
I'll show you.
You keep paddling lying in this position.
When you catch the wave, don't hesitate to stand up.
You will feel it when you catch the wave.
- Just stand up where you are. - Like this?
Think of yourself as a pine caterpillar.
It moves like this.
- I see. - Stand up...
like this like a pine caterpillar.
- Pushing up my body? - Yes, at the end.
- A turtle and a pine caterpillar. - You moved...
your leg forward. That's why you stood in the middle.
- First, I paddle. - That's good.
Keep paddling. Paddle.
You see a wave coming.
You're close. You can catch it now.
- Stand up. - That's good.
(Stand up like a pine caterpillar!)
- That's good. - Did I do well?
Repeat this 10 times.
- Now? - Right now.
Ready!
Paddle!
- Pad... What? - Paddle.
- What? - Paddle.
- Turtle. The turtle move. - Oh, I see.
Faster!
(Joon trains him intensely.)
Turtle. Move faster.
The wave is coming behind you.
A seagull is coming.
(Chi Yeul is practising on the hot sand.)
There's a big wave. You're close to catch it.
(Chi Yeul stands up like a pine caterpillar.)
You did an excellent job.
(Chi Yeul endures Joon's intense training.)
Good job.
(Chi Yeul mastered the basic skills.)
- Joon. - Yes?
- We might find a hot spring here. - Right.
- I dug too deep. - You did well.
(Chi Yeul practised really hard.)
I think you'll do great. Do you know why?
You have such a pretty face.
You will pull this off.
Okay.
Think of "Feels Like the First Time".
"Feels Like the First Time."
That's right. Let's go.
(The two men with enthusiasm...)
(will begin surfing in the summer sea.)
(The emerald sea is waiting for them.)
Let's go!
It's too big.
(Chi Yeul is about to surf for the first time in his life.)
I feel like I'm carrying someone taller than me.
My surf board is taller than me.
(He's struggling from the start.)
(He carries his surf board very carefully.)
(There are more things...)
(that are new to Chi Yeul than he expected.)
(Before surfing on his very first wave,)
I'm already tired.
(Chi Yeul is nervous as he walks along the beach.)
(Joon looks confident and relaxed.)
(Chi Yeul looks nervous and tired.)
(Wait for us.)
It's so cold.
The water is cold.
It's the best to walk as far as you can.
(Being buoyant with expectations,)
(Chi Yeul approaches the wave slowly.)
Start paddling.
(I want to play with the waves.)
There's a wave coming.
(The wave slaps his face.)
- Are you okay? - Yes.
I think...
Mother! Oh, my!
(He doesn't seem okay.)
(The first encounter with the wave is different from what he imagined.)
(He didn't expect the waves to slap his face.)
(Joon moves forward.)
(Chi Yeul is drifting back to the shore.)
(Joon, the master of surfing, is...)
(swimming out to the sea, avoiding the waves.)
(Joon enjoys the waves,)
(and Chi Yeul can't handle the waves.)
My goodness.
(He moves forwards a little...)
(and is pushed back even further.)
(He's exhausted.)
(They are so far apart.)
(Drifting ashore)
(Joon, when did you get that far?)
Since it was my first time surfing,
I expected Joon to give me a one-on-one lesson the whole time.
I thought he would correct my posture and such,
but I forgot that he likes to mingle with other people.
(Joon is very sociable.)
Joon was already making friends with other surfers...
while I was left alone and struggling to paddle forward.
At first, I was scared...
to be left alone.
(Joon realises Chi Yeul isn't around.)
(Looking around)
Keep coming forward!
(Chi Yeul is moving slowly towards Joon.)
Paddle!
That's right.
(Thanks for waiting for me.)
(Joon and Chi Yeul are united once again.)
I came too far.
Do you see that wave coming?
Watch this.
Here comes the wave.
(Joon is showing him an example.)
(He paddles like a turtle...)
(then stands right on the surfboard.)
(He succeeds.)
(Do you see...)
(how awesome I look?)
Wow!
(He's amazed.)
(Chi Yeul is motivated by Joon...)
Another one coming.
(and takes on the challenge.)
(Joon pushes Chi Yeul.)
Go, go, go!
(Chi Yeul paddles like a turtle...)
(and tries to stand on the surfboard as he learned.)
(Can he make it?)
(He falls.)
(The moment he stood up, he fell off.)
(It looked like he was dancing.)
(He ended up drinking lots of seawater.)
(It's harder to deal with...)
(the waves constantly slapping his face...)
(than surfing itself.)
(He tries again,)
(but surfing is not so easy.)
(Now he looks like a frog, not a turtle or caterpillar.)
(Joon reminds him of the basics.)
(Chi Yeul tries once again.)
You have to paddle.
The turtle is ready!
- Get ready! - I'm ready!
Hey turtle,
paddle now!
Paddle!
(Chi Yeul the turtle is coming.)
(When the wave comes...)
(he stands up like a caterpillar.)
(Joon is worried.)
(Can Chi Yeul make it this time?)
(He made it.)
(He feels the thrill of surfing for the first time.)
(He feels like he's walking on the clouds.)
(Joon gives him a thumbs up.)
(Even his fall looks cool.)
(Jumping)
(You did it!)
Joon!
I'll push you.
Surf on this wave!
(He got the hang of it now.)
(Raising spray,)
(he dashes on the water.)
(He's having a great time...)
(on the water with a friend.)
Yes!
(We're not simply surfing on the wave.)
(We're enjoying our youth.)
(One wave means youth...)
(and the next wave means freedom.)
(Can you feel it?)
(This time, they surf together.)
(Joon has been surfing for 38 years,)
(and Chi Yeul has been surfing for 3.8 hours.)
(Both teacher and pupil enjoy surfing.)
(Surfing is amazing.)
It was the best.
When I was surfing,
I felt alive.
It also felt like I did something big.
I felt that I was one with the nature.
It was a really thrilling experience.
It was so much fun.
It was the best, really.
(After they finished surfing...)
- Joon! - Good job!
Joon, it was awesome.
(He keeps giving it thumbs up.)
I had so much fun.
My goodness.
You know, after we get out of the water...
(They look somewhat uncomfortable.)
there's some kind of pressure.
I feel uncomfortable.
(They have to undress uncomfortably.)
(Chi Yeul is having a hard time.)
It's so hard to take it off.
My goodness.
It was good when we were surfing.
(Two grown men are struggling to take off their suits.)
(They end up helping each other.)
Gosh.
Taking the suit off is harder than surfing.
You really did a good job.
- You did. - Thank you.
Next time...
when the waves are bigger.
let's see how much you can do better.
What Joon taught me that day is...
to give myself to the nature...
and to go with the rhythm,
becoming one with the wave.
He taught me those things.
It was amazing.
It was a new experience for me.
(The early adopter Chi Yeul now has a new hobby.)
(Screaming)
- This is romance! - This is what men do!
(Inflatable floats are a must on a sea.)
(Two grown men are having fun with the floats.)
(Staying innocent...)
(and having fun...)
(are the way to go about life.)
(Chi Yeul's first exciting surfing experience)
(Summer is coming to Ban Jang's house.)
(He's stretching.)
(He's stretching seductively.)
(He's refreshed.)
(Warming up his voice)
(Ban Jang starts the morning with vocal warm ups.)
(Hello, Ban Jang.)
(He's waiting...)
(for the water to boil.)
I have a concert tomorrow.
The day before the concert,
I always condition my voice...
and rehearse with the band members.
It's a busy day for me.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G...
(With a drum in front of him,)
(he begins his voice training.)
My voice is great today as usual
Thank you, thank you, thank you I feel great
Let's have fun today
All right.
(He finishes his fun performance.)
I have to do my hair.
(He takes the multi-outlet.)
Ta-da.
(He's takes out the electric hair clipper.)
(He will cut his hair himself.)
(He oils the blade.)
I hope it works well.
I have a concert tomorrow.
(The hair clipper is on.)
I'll cut it short for summer.
(He doesn't hesitate.)
I'm like Won Bin.
(This guy is the most notable person that shaved his head.)
(Who on earth are you?)
(I'm Won Bin of Jeongneung.)
(He's shaving his head.)
(Clumps of hair fall to the ground.)
(There is no need to go to a hair salon.)
(He's a self-sufficient musician.)
(How fascinating.)
(He's completely bald.)
This is Jeongneung Won Bin's style.
(I look pretty good.)
I'm happy.
I look handsome.
I shave my head twice a year.
I shave in the summer because it's hot.
I shave in the winter because it's cold to wash my hair.
A shaved head suits me.
I think I look pretty good.
I stressed over it a lot when I was a teenager.
I thought I looked like a space squid.
That's what I thought.
Now that I'm older,
I figure if everyone looked like Won Bin,
how could he make a living?
There are people like him...
and people like me.
It's better that way.
There are many different types of flowers in a field.
(Windy City members have come to practise.)
(Ban Jang is using his living room as a studio.)
- Hello. - Come in.
Welcome.
Your hair...
I shaved my head this morning.
Check the back for me.
(The back looks smooth as well.)
It looks fine.
(The band members practise for their performance.)
Let's practise the song for tomorrow.
One, two...
("Greeting" by Kim Ban Jang and Windy City)
(Park Sang Kwon plays guitar and Kim Jae Ho plays bass.)
(Ra Gook San plays percussion.)
(Heo Ah Min plays keyboard.)
Welcome, everyone.
(Ban Jang is the vocalist and drummer.)
(It's nice to meet you)
(We're Windy City)
(They have a refined yet primitive style.)
(It's Ban Jang and Windy City's...)
(unique reggae flavour.)
(Ban Jang stops the practice suddenly.)
It seems like we can't hear well with the instruments.
How about we practise the chorus in the yard?
- Outside? - Yes.
(He hands the keyboard player a melodica.)
Here's the guitar.
(They gather their instruments and head to the yard.)
(It's cute.)
(He hits a kettle instead of the drums.)
("Sweet Reggae Music" by Kim Bang Jang and Windy City)
(I'm here with my good friends)
(We're making music together)
(Bringing together people's hearts)
(It's reggae music)
(This is great.)
(The sweet reggae music...)
(goes well with his soft voice.)
(With just a kettle and melodica,)
(Ban Jang's yard has become a reggae concert hall.)
Sang Kwon isn't singing.
Yes, I am.
I'm singing.
(You'd better do a good job, Sang Kwon.)
(It's a tranquil practice session before the concert.)
Rather than only practising inside the studio,
we can go out in the yard.
We can stop to chat. It's a relaxing atmosphere.
We can do that in Jeongneung.
That's why we usually practise here.
(Relaxing)
(While singing, I realise I haven't eaten breakfast yet)
(I'm so hungry that I can't practise)
(The song is born from acute hunger.)
("I'm Hungry")
(If only someone would pull out his wallet)
It'd be great if they said, "It's my treat today."
(Is anyone there?)
(I want jajangmyeon, jjamppong and fried rice)
In 1, 2, 3, 4!
(A front yard concert is only possible...)
(at Ban Jang's house.)
Let's order Chinese food.
I want jajangmyeon.
I want japchaebap.
Do they have mapo eggplant?
(His preferences are very specific.)
Call and order.
Hello, I'm calling from Jeongneung.
(He's memorised the address like it's his own house.)
It's the house at the end. We'll go down to get the food.
Do you have mapo eggplant with rice?
Can I have that?
I want japchaebap. Ask for the dumplings on the house.
Can we get dumplings on the house?
No?
(I only need the mapo eggplant.)
Thank you.
- No dumplings? - No.
(He's disappointed.)
(We couldn't get dumplings on the house today)
(He comes up with a sad song.)
("I Want to Eat Dumplings")
(If I had tried)
(I would've insisted)
(He feels sorry for letting him down.)
(He expresses his sadness with a high note.)
(We get no dumplings today)
(The dumpling culprit has left the scene.)
(I want to eat dumplings)
(He came up with two songs on the spot.)
(Ban Jang turns...)
(his everyday life into music.)
(Let's eat.)
(He's stuffing himself.)
(They're stuffing their faces.)
It's delicious.
(The lunch is delicious even without the dumplings.)
Try this.
(After a quick meal,)
(Bang Jang heads out with the other members.)
(There's a stream by his house.)
(He leaps like a flying squirrel.)
Let's sit here.
(They take off their shoes...)
(and head into the water.)
I'm glad I wore shorts.
(The guys are excited to see the water.)
(They put a watermelon to cool in the stream.)
(They're playing like children.)
There are fish here.
It's cool.
(He discovers something else.)
Look at this.
It's a rockfish.
Never mind.
It's an eel.
It's so refreshing.
- It's been so long. - I know.
Let's eat the watermelon.
(They slice it open.)
(It looks good.)
Let's eat.
(They gather and eat the watermelon together.)
What time should we meet tomorrow?
Tomorrow...
We've been doing a lot of performances lately.
Is it helping financially?
(Joon Baek is their management company CEO.)
I've been eating a lot lately.
He takes all the money.
We did a lot of performances.
Then why is it so hard to make ends meet?
Ah Min and Sang Kwon...
played at a wedding and earned 30 dollars.
- 30 dollars? - For one wedding?
It's 30 dollars per wedding.
I earn 150 dollars for 5 weddings.
It'd be okay if there were weddings on weekdays,
but there aren't.
- They're only on weekends. - There aren't that many either.
There are no weddings in the winter.
We're not doing music to play at weddings.
Right.
We have to balance it out.
Jae Ho recently got married.
How is the married life?
It's rather fun being married.
- Is it? - Don't cry.
I'm not crying yet. I'm still okay.
Our band isn't having financial difficulties.
Still,
it might be different for a family man.
It's not possible to make a living...
(It's hard to make ends meet with just the band.)
with just the band alone.
If we can improve our financial situation,
I might consider marriage.
It's not a possibility right now.
Gook San is leaving his studio.
The rent is too expensive.
(Gook San can't afford the rent.)
It must be upsetting.
People have told me that...
musicians always starve.
I think that's dumb.
That's right.
We should be able to...
(He couldn't give up music despite struggling.)
make a living based on our passions.
Right.
It's been a long time since I've made a living as a musician.
You made a living from music.
That's why I sing like this.
Get it?
(Ban Jang lightens the mood with jokes.)
Is that a song?
It might be...
a bit tough right now.
I think what we need to do is...
If we charge 30 dollars for admission...
and deliver a 50-dollar performance,
people will come.
If we work together,
(Let's work together to the end.)
our finances will improve.
I think it's possible.
- It's getting better. - It's not too late.
- We have a performance tomorrow. - Right.
Raise your hands when I say, "Love and peace."
Love and peace?
Love and peace!
(Love and peace)
(Let's put on a great performance tomorrow.)
I think being a musician...
is a calling as much as an occupation.
I don't think it's easy to be financially successful...
as a musician.
As a musician,
I think it's important to create good music.
(Ban Jang picks up an instrument as soon as he gets home.)
(He goes up to the roof.)
This is great.
I'm so happy
(He keeps practising on the roof.)
It's a happy
Summer day
Every day is a good day
(He's happy today because of music.)
(It's a sunny day at a theatre in Sinsa-dong.)
Thank you for coming.
Please don't use flash photography during the performance.
(There's a musical press call today.)
The world may change
But I will never change
(He has his eyes closed.)
(He's taken over the dressing room.)
This is my third musical.
I was in...
"Hedwig and the Angry Inch" a couple years ago.
It's been a while since I've done a musical.
It's a large-scale musical that's very dark.
(The lead role is dark and heavy this time.)
It's a big jump for me.
I should've gotten more experience before taking on this role.
I've been practising a lot since I'm worried.
I've become really serious and sensitive.
Let's watch the highlights of the musical.
Please give a round of applause.
(What will Dong Wan's performance be like?)
(He's calmly sings each note of the song.)
(He portrays the poet's desperation and torment.)
(Kim Ji Woo is the female lead.)
(Romance can't be left out of a musical.)
(Dong Wan does a great job portraying emotional depth.)
We'll begin a question-and-answer session...
with the actors of "Edgar Allen Poe."
(Dong Wan takes the microphone.)
Hello, I'm Kim Dong Wan.
Everyone in the musical...
are top actors and actresses.
It's an honour to act with them.
I'm really nervous.
When I was first cast, I was worried...
because it's such a difficult role.
I studied hard while preparing.
However, I won't study while performing.
I'll act instead.
I've never heard an actor laugh like that...
during a press call with reporters.
Please write positive reviews.
I beg you.
The role is a bit too big for me.
I have to...
portray a profound character.
It doesn't fit my personality.
It keeps clashing.
That's why I'm going to...
try and make up for my weaknesses.
(It's his day off.)
Here it is.
Hello.
It's nice to meet you.
(He transformed Song Joong Ki into a wolf boy.)
(Lee Joon Hyuk is an acting coach.)
Have a seat.
(Dong Wan wants to improve his acting.)
I'm appearing in a musical.
My movements have been criticised.
- Movement is a type of language. - That's right.
Since we're not voice actors, we need to move.
Movements are similar to speech.
- That's why you should learn. - All right.
- Please move me. - All right.
- Do you have a pen and paper? - Yes.
Write down my account number.
I'll use my cell phone.
(I'm the teacher and you're the student.)
Let's talk inside.
In mime,
you need action and reaction.
A mime requires action and reaction.
For example, let's say I hit you with a whip.
It should hurt.
Let's try it.
That's it. That's mime.
- Does it hurt? Good. - Yes.
This is the most well-known pantomime.
It goes like this.
(Dong Wan isn't too bad.)
It's things like this.
That's right.
- I'm good, right? - Yes.
Very good.
You have a great grasp of the basics.
Pretend you're pulling a rope.
That's right.
Do it again.
And 1, 2...
In 1, 2. That's it.
The rope is crooked.
It isn't straight.
(He whips.)
You don't know how to pull a rope.
Is this a course on assault?
That's right.
(It's a little violent but fun mime class.)
Are you warmed up?
- Yes. - All right then.
A character's centre of gravity is very important.
Is the character light, serious or heavy?
It's a poet named Edgar Allan Poe.
He becomes more serious and tormented.
As he ages, he becomes deeper.
I tend to walk lightly.
I move around too much.
For example,
a light character has his centre way up there.
It's as if they're hanging from above.
(He steps lightly.)
- It's very light. - It's light.
- You look cute. - Right.
Some characters have a very low centre of gravity.
- I can't do that very well. - That's right.
Look at your centre of gravity.
Then lower it.
- If it's here... - Bring it down.
(Lower your centre of gravity slowly.)
Bring it to the ground.
(His chin and eyes are lowered instead.)
Next,
send that weight forward.
Send it forward.
(His steps reflect the weight of life.)
Another important factor...
is a drag.
Sometimes thoughts can drag you.
Thoughts can pull you.
What thoughts pull that character?
Your thoughts propel you.
Like this, right?
Sometimes, your view pulls you.
My viewpoint...
Like this, right?
You have to catch that.
You've already received a year's worth of training.
Now,
- look in the mirror. - All right.
Let's move the body separately.
I'll try it first.
From here to here...
(He bends quickly.)
Come back to the centre.
(He bends quickly and goes back.)
(His entire body moves separately.)
Once you understand the movements, you can apply it to your acting.
If you see Michelangelo's David,
- it's chest faces downward left. - I see.
But it's face...
looks up, up and right.
His hips are twisted with his leg up a little.
- His leg is lifted. - Oh.
- It's a very dynamic posture. - Yes.
Although it is standing still, there is the feeling of dynamic movement.
Physically describing the inner conflict.
That's what you need.
I need to express my body just like I can with my facial expressions.
That's right. Your body has expressions too.
Body expressions like these...
- They seem to be basics. - Yes.
- They're one dimensional. - I see.
Like this. We are grown-ups, you don't do this when you're hungry.
(Touching belly with the feeling of being hungry)
- No adults do this. - Right.
You don't go like this when you listen.
You get it,
- right? - That's right.
You don't sound convinced.
(Your reaction should be better than that.)
- Here's another thing. - Yes.
I was once directed like this.
Things that my character must to do is pulling me,
and Virginia is also pulling me from the other side.
I was told to move with those feelings.
(The expression of agony between the two is the key.)
I was only thinking about it inside.
I thought I was expressing it enough, but I really wasn't.
Stage acting is like that.
Let's talk about Virginia.
- Is she beautiful? - Yes.
I asked to make sure.
She is pretty, of course.
- Your duty is over there. - Okay.
- You are moving toward it. - Yes.
But your eyes will still be looking at her as long as possible.
Your body faces the duty already.
(The direction of the movement)
Your centre of gravity is shifting as well.
Oh, I get it now.
That's how you physically express your inner conflict.
(A simple eye contact can maximise the feeling of conflict.)
- Right? - Yes.
Don't turn my face away too soon, right?
My face is being pulled this way...
while my body is being pulled that way.
You just finished a three-year-course.
You finished one chapter.
Now we need to know the rhythms.
(Getting on the rhythm of characters)
We have many kinds of rhythms.
Staccato is very light and accurate.
(Turning sharply)
- Can you feel it? - I see.
There are also heavy and slow rhythms too.
- There are. - Right?
You can turn your face slowly like this.
(Feeling of restraint is added just by changing the rhythm.)
Slowly, like this.
There is also a water drop rhythm.
When a water drop falls on a calm surface of the water,
(A water drop falling)
(Sound of air)
It drops on your heart like this.
It's like a drop of water.
There was an impact and an image lingers.
There is a scene where I needed that.
Is there?
- Really? - My character hears rain drops...
- and goes deep in his thoughts. - Yes.
- It's an inspirational moment. - That's right.
(After hearing the thunder,)
(he flails?)
Hold on.
You move as if you're dancing.
(Sound of thundering)
(Dancing)
What should I do?
(It is his habits from living as an idol singer for 18 years.)
Give time to your thoughts.
The audience feels it no matter how short the pause is.
- That's right. - Let's move separately.
There goes the thunder,
the expression of being surprised is out now,
you go into your own world,
and there goes the moment of being inspired.
I can see the process clearly.
- Do you agree with me? - Yes.
You just finished the whole course. Was it helpful?
It was a tremendous help.
- Was it? - Yes.
Should I extend our contract?
(Laughing)
There's one more to ask.
It's about the death of my character.
- It's also my opening scene. - Okay.
Should I go like this?
Even when you are on your knees,
this won't be dynamic enough.
Let's see you go like this. Yes, like that.
With my legs like this?
There's a drama already.
You can use your hips too.
(Dynamic postures connect the whole body movements.)
You see that?
You can go lower. And there goes your arms.
The movements of your arms can change. Use the weight.
I learned to express my inner conflicts physically.
By controlling my body and my glances separately,
I can be more expressive. It was a great tip.
Stage acting is different.
He gave me good tips for stage acting.
He was of tremendous help today.
(Dong Wan is back home after a long practice.)
I'm tired.
Why is my place so messy?
I haven't taken care of my place in a long time.
I don't even know where to start.
(It's chaotic.)
In fact, living in a mess...
doesn't bother me when I live alone.
I can just ignore it.
If I had a roommate, I could be...
in trouble for this. I might not be allowed to practise at home, either.
It's a relief that I'm living alone.
Otherwise, I could have ruined my musical.
(There's a script on the corner of his messy desk.)
Let's apply...
what I learned today.
(Putting down the script)
There's no green tea?
Where is my green tea?
(Relying on a single rope)
Where is my green tea?
(On a long journey to find his green tea)
(Oh, right.)
I should've faced that way.
Step up and twist.
(He already knows the lines by heart, but he still practises.)
Let's consider everything. Let's gather things that are impossible.
When you are in love,
you keep thinking of your lover whenever you eat or work.
I keep thinking about this musical these days.
Sometimes it gives me a headache,
sometimes it makes me so happy.
It'll be like this until the last day of the production.
I'm becoming more like my character.
I think to myself, "I am Edgar Allan Poe."
He was quite a strange man though.
(Today, he puts his light-heartedness aside.)
Mother.
(He is immersed in the character...)
(of a poet in agony.)
(It was Dong Wan's day,)
(filled with passion.)
(Hyun Moo's first Monday after quitting his radio programme)
(A plaque of appreciation awarded to Hyun Moo)
(It is his first peaceful weekday morning in three years.)
(Startled)
(As soon as he checks the time,)
(he panics.)
(I'm late for my radio programme.)
(Oh, I'm not.)
(I quit that programme.)
I almost had a heart attack.
It scared me.
Oh, dear.
(It was the longest minute ever.)
Oh, goodness.
If I hadn't quit that show,
it would be the end of the world.
What a nightmare.
(It gives him a chill.)
It scared me. I thought I was late for my work again.
(Thank goodness.)
(It is Hong Chul's first day at work soon.)
He must be so nervous by now.
(He must be so nervous by now.)
(Listening to his opening music at home feels awkward.)
The staff of this programme started sending me messages from last night.
They said, "Go to bed early.",
"Hong Chul, sleep. You must go to bed now."
I received tons of text messages.
Hello, everyone. It is very nice to meet you.
- It's May 30. - "Nice to meet you."
This is "Noh Hong Chul's Good Morning FM".
(Hong Chul's first song is "I Am Fine".)
It is Hwang Gyu Young's song.
What a typical choice of a song.
(He always chose typical songs as well.)
Let's go, Hong Chul.
I should send him a text message.
(The former radio host wants to hang out.)
"I heard Good Morning FM has a new DJ,"
"I hope to see a more matured host, Hong Chul."
- More matured? Let's see... - What does that mean?
(Someone wants a more mature host.)
(He finally sent the text message.)
"Be yourself, Hong Chul."
I appreciate all of your messages. Thank you.
Wow. Jun Hyun Moo sent us a text message.
"Hello, this is Hyun Moo."
"Congratulations."
"I can't believe Hong Chul is up at this time."
"Keep up the good work. Let's go, Hong Chul."
And I can't understand this sentence.
"I hope you'll be a more mature DJ than me."
(Making fun of his lisp)
(Why is he up already?)
(Giggling)
Hyun Moo worked hard for this programme,
I won't ruin his reputation. I'll do my very best.
- Good luck! - For Hyun Moo,
we will send him a gift of glass container set.
Thank you.
I need them for kimchi.
Thank you for the gift set.
(He loves the gift set.)
Let's hear...
- today's weather first. - Funny. He read my message.
He is doing great.
He has a good sense of humour.
(Reading the bulletin board of the radio programme)
People like him.
Some of them even cried because I quit.
Now they love the new host.
(He is a little upset.)
(He is feeling down now.)
I can't believe that I'm home at this time.
I can't even go back to sleep.
It's good for the programme...
someone who is better has replaced me.
I feel less pressured now,
but I do feel a bit sad and empty to think that I might be forgotten.
(He decided to come out to his living room.)
(I can't believe I'm home at this time.)
I love this morning breeze.
(It's a peaceful morning in three years.)
(He has time for a cup of coffee now.)
(In peace)
(Picking up a fashion magazine)
(He has his peaceful morning time back now.)
(On the same day, 9:30am)
(His enjoying his free time in the morning.)
Oh, goodness.
(He visits his ENT doctor.)
- Hello. - Hello.
Save me, doctor.
Hello.
- How are you here at this time? - I quit the radio show.
- That's right. I heard it. - Yes.
Let's see.
(His throat is still not in good condition.)
Stick your tongue out, please.
Raise your head a little.
Make some sound.
(How is Hyun Moo's throat?)
Breathe in,
breathe out.
You're used to see this now.
- It has swollen again? - Yes.
We've worked on your throat long enough.
How long has it been? Two years?
A little less than two years.
You visited once a week last year.
I came here a lot.
Your work schedule was tough.
It's hard to make a sound with this condition of a throat.
- It looks terrible. - Yes.
You see that mucous membrane?
It's swollen terribly.
Yes.
You should avoid speaking as much as you can.
Working early in the morning...
was bad for your throat. That's when the throat is very dry.
I'm sorry for saying this to your fans,
but it is more important to cure your throat first.
Ever since I have worked as a freelancer,
I have been living in the fear of not getting jobs.
There was tremendous stress.
I forced myself to work as much as I could.
But soon, I felt it was too much. I was wrong.
- I was under a lot of stress. - I know.
I was once begging you to make my throat better at least for one day.
I had no break. It was bad for my throat.
Even my face was swollen.
Now here I am.
I really didn't want to quit my radio programme,
but I was scared of losing my voice completely.
- That's why I quit. - Good.
It's good to think positive like that. Let's cure that throat.
I envy your voice.
You remind me of Bae Hang Sung.
(Please make my voice sound like yours.)
He once asked me if I can take a break just for two days.
He suggested a surgery for my voice chord.
We thought about that.
But I never had those 2 days for past 3 years.
I had to keep using my voice.
I really wanted to keep my job at the radio station,
but I had no choice.
In the long run, I believe I made a good decision for me.
I should take care of my body first.
If I recharge my body and get better,
I will consider getting the job back.
(It's time to recover for his next schedule.)
I had way too many injections.
Oh, gosh.
I'm a patient indeed.
(Take a break so you can work harder.)
(It's important to take a break some time for a healthy lifestyle.)
(For Young Chul, Song Eun I is...)
Try to think of it as "We Got Married".
Could you fix my furnace?
Excuse me. Call the customer service.
(Young Chul and Eun I are...)
(making some good memories.)
(Young Chul and Eun I's "Between friendship and love")
