- National Competition on Worries. - National Competition on Worries.
Coincidentally, all of our guests today...
have never been on the show.
- You're right. - Yes.
Yun Yu Seon.
(Elegant actress, Yun Yu Seon)
- Dana. - Dana.
Hello.
Lee Jini and Joo Woo Jae.
(Models Lee Jini and Joo Woo Jae)
I'm glad we invited Yu Seon today.
She's really famous among actors.
She even scolds Youn Yuh Jung.
- What was that about? - Why did you scold her?
She was talking about her friends...
when I commented frankly.
She told me I shouldn't be so rude when adults are talking.
About two days later, she called me.
"It's me Yuh Jung, the one you yelled at."
(You yelled at me.)
- Is that how it started? - Yes.
I look forward to your direct remarks today.
Dana. Actually, a lot of people...
- still think that she's young. - That's true.
I'm 31 years old now.
You are?
Sometimes when I'm on a set,
a staff member six years younger than me...
would talk to me as if I was younger than them.
- Really? - That's how they treat me.
Then I approach them...
and tell them that I'm older.
People still think I'm very young.
I know, Dana.
Just go stand over there.
- He's doing it on purpose. - He just...
That might just be his personality.
- That makes me more careful. - You have a new album, right?
- Yes. - Dana, go stand over there.
- Sing us something. - I'll sing a verse.
(Sing us a song!)
("Touch You" by Dana)
(Just like her baby face, her pure voice doesn't age.)
(Her passionate song...)
(spreads deep through our hearts.)
(That was great!)
Thank you.
She's the youngest among our guests today.
- Lee Jini. - Jini.
- She's so jolly. - Yes.
Do you have any worries?
- Me? - Yes.
- People say I don't look my age. - What?
- They say I don't look my age. - Are they saying that you look old?
Let's see how old people think she is.
I know that she's younger than me now...
but when I met her backstage,
- You didn't know? - I thought she was my age...
- or slightly younger. - Let's all take a guess.
How old do you think she is?
Around 23? We're guessing from her looks alone.
Aren't you in your early 20s?
- I'm... - Are you a teenager?
- Yes. - You're in your teens?
- You're a teenager? - Yes, she is.
It's a worry, right? I think I should sit there.
- Why are you all so surprised? - No...
(Don't be so surprised.)
- Are you a teenager? - I'm 18 years old.
She's 18 years old.
(She's only 18 years old.)
- Beside her is Joo Woo Jae. - Yes.
He's a model with lots of female fans.
- What? - What is your charm?
My charm?
I think I'm handsome enough...
for people to consider dating me.
I'm not excessively good-looking.
How old are you?
I'm 31. We're the same age.
He's the same age as Dana.
- You look so young. - You do look young.
For both of you,
would it be too much to ask...
to see you do a walk for us?
When a model comes out on a show,
most of them are often asked...
- to show their model walks. - That's true.
It's really boring to watch.
I was thinking of posing with Yeong Ja instead.
- Posing. - Pose with me?
- Great. - There's a pose I'd like to try.
- I'd like to have a go. - What is it?
- Explain it to me. - I want to be lifted.
- You want to lift me? - No, he wants you to lift him.
- You want me to lift you? - Yes.
(She's confused but he's unwavering.)
- Lift him. - Really?
(Woo Jae wishes to be lifted by Yeong Ja.)
Can you sing "Touch You" in the background?
I'm embarrassed.
This is like a musical.
- Lift. - You have to hold on, too.
Don't put your hand through here.
(Don't put your hand here.)
I see you saw the clip of Oh Ji Ho and I.
- All right. - Okay.
- I'll go up like this. - Okay.
- Here we go. - Okay.
(She sings in the background.)
(He jumps up.)
(Wow)
She's using just one hand.
Unbelievable.
(It is an amazing one-hand lift.)
Unbelievable.
- I'm mortified with myself. - You were so stable.
She used just one hand.
I thought I was on a ride...
made out of steel.
A steel ride...
(Welcome to Yeong Ja's amusement park.)
I even surprised myself.
(You're amazing.)
"Change My Husband" won for the first time last week.
I'm constantly being dragged to my husband's drinking sessions.
He always goes for 2nd and 3rd rounds.
When we get home around 1am...
- Do you take your baby there? - The baby, too?
Yes. The baby comes with us.
If I have to feed or change the baby,
I have to do it in the public toilets.
Aren't you worried about your baby's hygiene?
I know she'll take good care of the baby.
Normally, Tae Gyun doesn't get upset...
but he was really mad last week for the first time this year.
Are you saying being pregnant is not a big deal?
- Normally, - He was so worked up.
- I don't get mad. - No.
We'll see if they'll win again.
What does the winner get?
We will give the winner a 1,000-dollar gift certificate.
We have three worries today.
Show us the keywords please.
("I'm Invisible", "Honey, Please", "I Want to Destroy Everything")
"Honey, Please".
Hello, I'm a woman in my 20s who's losing sleep over her husband.
- Is it the husband again? - I guess so.
My husband...
leaves home every Saturday morning...
and doesn't come crawling back until Sunday night.
The reason why he stays out all night...
- is because of exercise. - Exercise.
He's obsessed with Kyokushin Karate and mixed martial arts.
I'd say, "Honey, are you home? How was work?"
He'd say, "It was okay."
"Honey, I quit my job."
What?
I said, "Are you crazy? Why did you quit? What happened?"
"I have to practice martial arts but they told me to work overtime."
That's why he quit?
- What is that about? - He quit his job for his hobby.
I said to him, "Honey, it's been two months since you quit."
"We haven't been able to pay rent and there's no rice."
He said, "Sometimes you have money..."
"and sometimes you don't."
"I'm off to exercise."
Oh, my goodness!
We can't live hand-to-mouth. How do we live without money?
I said, "Please make a living instead of working out!"
"We're going to starve to death!"
He said, "I'm going to exercise to the death."
"If you want to live with me, keep your mouth shut."
(Stay quiet if you don't want a divorce.)
He shouts at me and leaves.
I don't know what to do. Please help me talk some sense into him.
- This is a hard one. - Yu Seon's jaw dropped.
- What's wrong? - I was looking...
- The winner? - at last week's winner.
- The husband is so happy. - He's happy, right?
Let me ask him.
Why are you smiling?
- I was speechless. - What?
You were speechless?
- You make me speechless. - You're worse.
- You're worse than him. - Let's see who wins.
That grin means, "Oh, it's someone just like me!"
"I should drink with him after the show."
- Please come out. - Come out.
(Who's the wife worried about her martial arts-obsessed husband?)
(Shin Eun Bit)
Is your husband working now?
He's had this recent job for four months now.
- He found himself a new job. - How did he get a job?
He's only working there because it's right next to a gym.
It's right next to a gym.
Did he pick a company near a gym?
Do you have a baby?
- Yes. A 17-month-old. - He needs a job without overtime.
Your baby is 17 months old?
How many times did he quit his job because of his hobby?
We've been married for four years.
He quit about 10 times.
He quit 10 jobs in 4 years?
Exercise caused him to quit 10 times?
Yes. He quit because he worked late and he couldn't exercise.
He quit another one because he had to work on a Saturday.
What kind of sports does he play?
He does Kyokushin Karate and mixed martial arts.
- Martial arts. - Mixed martial arts.
Kyokushin Karate was founded by Masutatsu Oyama.
Yes, he can take down a cow with his bare hands.
He founded the sport.
Didn't Yang Dong Geun shoot a film about it?
- That's Kyokushin Karate, right? - That's right.
Our son's named after the sport. It's Kyokushin in Korean.
- He's called Geuk Jin. - What?
- Really? - That's extreme love indeed.
- What's his full name? - What's his surname?
- Jung Geuk Jin. - It's Jung Geuk Jin.
At least he's not called "Karate".
Jung Karate? That's nice.
Is he a loving and good father to your child?
No.
- What? - He doesn't help with childcare?
No, he never helps me take care of the baby.
He plays with him for 30 minutes a day at most.
How many hours a day does he spend exercising?
He gets off work at around 6:30pm.
From then, he works out until 12am.
- About five hours or so? - Yes.
You mentioned he's been working for four months.
How are you doing, financially?
His monthly wage is around 1,400 dollars.
- We pay 330 dollars in rent. - You have to pay rent.
Then you have 1,070 dollars left.
- How much does he spend? - He must spend money to exercise.
- He spends 300 dollars. - 300 dollars.
That leaves you with 770 dollars.
Electricity, gas and utilities cost us another 300 dollars.
Raising a baby costs money, too.
My husband has debt.
We also have to pay 300 dollars to repay his debt.
- Then you have 170 dollars left. - 170 dollars?
If your baby is 17 months old, I'm sure you had a birthday party.
- They must have. - How did you manage that?
We couldn't afford a traditional birthday party,
so we just had a family dinner. Even that wasn't affordable...
so we ended up using our mobile phone credit.
- You used your mobile phone credit? - Yes, that's how we paid.
We didn't have any money to last us for the rest of the month.
We sold some of our son's birthday gifts.
He doesn't know what the priorities are.
Are there any positive sides to him?
I don't think so. He never helps around the house.
If he's home, he'd put a headlock on me.
What? A headlock?
- Why? - Is he being affectionate?
- It's because he exercises. - He's practising on you.
He practises karate techniques and turning kicks on me.
(He kicks her.)
- He does. - He shouldn't kick you.
- No. - He's not really kicking, right?
- It's so shocking. - I'm sure he doesn't actually kick.
- Does he kick hard? - Sometimes, I get bruises.
He kicks you for practise?
- He shouldn't bruise you. - He says he barely touched me.
- It'd be bad if he kicked properly. - Of course, he's a sportsman.
Still, there must be something nice. Is he good to your parents?
There must be something, right?
It doesn't make sense that nothing is good about him.
It takes him two hours to get to the gym.
- From home? - Yes.
My parents' live only 30 minutes away.
He never visits them, not even on holidays.
- Not even on holidays? - Really?
He didn't go on their birthdays, either.
- Not even then? - He goes to exercise.
- Does he see his parents? - No, he doesn't visit them too.
- Because he's working out? - Yes.
- Don't gyms close in the holidays? - Don't they close?
He goes alone to an empty gym.
- Really? - He's really obsessed.
He's obsessed with sports.
He doesn't let work come between him and sports.
Let's meet the husband now. Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
- He's a fine looking man. - Yes, he is.
- What do you think? - He dyed his hair like a sportsman.
He dyed it so nicely.
It's not like she's going to leave me.
I want her to respect and understand me.
I honestly don't know why I'm here.
Everyone sitting there says the same thing.
You want her respect so you headlock her?
I was watching a video and I saw an amazing technique.
My wife was right there...
so I decided to try it out.
If she's in pain, I know the technique works.
(She's in pain so it's a success.)
It's also my way of showing affection.
You're not just saying that because you're on camera, right?
You're serious, right?
- I'm serious. - I'm seriously angry.
(She's seriously angry.)
Did you really quit work because of exercise?
My priority is exercise.
That's why I found a job near the gym.
I avoid any jobs...
that make me work on weekends.
Exercise isn't your career, it's a hobby.
To me, it's my career.
- You think it's a career? - This is the problem.
Do you make money from this?
Not yet.
- But you hope to? - Yes, I started in middle school...
and after turning 20, I took up mixed martial arts, kung fu,
kick boxing, hapkido, taekwondo...
and jiu jitsu as well.
How good are you?
- Do you want to try? - What?
- That's not his field. - Me?
- I lifted him with one hand. - Do you want...
to fight with us with words?
It's the same thing. Why would you ask him that?
I see that you love sports.
Is that why you named your child Geuk Jin?
I named him...
after what I loved the most. That's why I named him Geuk Jin.
It has a great meaning.
What will you name your second child?
- Karate? - There's...
- something I have in mind. - Karate?
- Jung Karate? - Does this mean...
- It's not Karate. - you plan on having more babies?
- Yes, I want to have many kids. - I see.
You can only have kids if you can support them.
I think money comes and goes.
For you, it just goes, goes, goes and goes.
I think it will come sometime.
- Right. - I have a string of hope.
Are you trying to become a professional player?
I think I already am.
I want to be a professional player with my own gym.
I want to live like that while teaching Geuk Jin.
I understand you.
I think it's great you're working hard for your dreams.
However, you're the head of the family. You're not her son.
Shouldn't you be more realistic?
It's not like I'm not working.
I'm leaning towards my dreams more than reality for now.
We have no money to live off of right now.
Even if he brings home money, we're still in the red.
- What about diapers? - Diapers and formula...
are often bought on my mobile phone credit.
(They can barely afford things for the baby.)
- I'm not lazing around. - I'm sure.
- I'm working pretty hard. - But...
The problem is you're short on money.
Money comes and goes.
- That's what I think. - The thing is,
you're right. It comes and goes.
- I agree with you on that. - How cute.
You are completely right.
The problem is that your debt is getting bigger.
Are you planning on paying it back all at once?
I'll pay it back, bit by bit. I'm trying to get back on my feet.
I'm working hard towards it.
I don't want to give up on my dream, so I haven't let go of sports.
If you're over 30 years old, it might get harder...
to make money through sports...
even if you work really hard.
Even if I lose an arm and become handicapped, I want to continue.
I haven't considered anything else.
Did he ever get injured?
- I'm sure he gets hurt often. - Yes.
- Bruises are very common. - Of course.
He once had his nose cracked.
- His nose bridge? - Yes.
He didn't go to the hospital. He went to exercise the next day.
Even if you look now,
he has huge cuts on his leg.
Are those also from working out?
- Yes. - You would think sportsmen...
would be healthy but he's not healthy at all.
He asks me to massage him for 2 to 3 hours a day.
(I have to massage him every day.)
- You give him massages? - For 2 to 3 hours?
This worry just got a lot worse.
I also get stressed from doing house chores.
I take care of our baby, too.
I can't sleep without my muscle pain medicine.
He ignores me when I say this and just wants his massage.
I have to massage him until he falls asleep.
Why do you ask her to massage you for 2 to 3 hours?
You know the baseball player, Choo Shin Soo, right?
I heard...
his wife gave him massages every day...
since before he became famous regardless of whether...
- he made money or not. - Did you say Choo Shin Soo?
- Did he just mention Choo Shin Soo? - The Choo Shin Soo we know?
You mean Choo Shin Soo of the Texas Rangers?
He wouldn't be where he is now if it weren't for his wife.
Sir, there's something you need to know.
Even when Choo Shin Soo wasn't making a lot of money,
he earned a decent sum because he was playing baseball.
He made enough for basic living expenses.
I also make enough for the basics.
The amount is different.
You can't compare yourself to him considering many aspects.
I'd like to point out that your wife...
- also wants to improve herself. - Yes, she's still young.
Don't you think you're expecting too much from your wife?
I don't buy any clothes.
I wear my shoes until they wear out like this.
- I only buy sports equipment. - Sports equipment.
- I just buy those things. - You're doing what you want to do.
Why does your wife have to live like this?
(Why does she have to suffer?)
- Let's ask the wife. - Ma'am.
Have you spent money on yourself?
- Have you bought clothes... - Two years ago.
I bought this shirt two years ago.
- That was the last time? - You bought that two years ago?
- That's from two years ago? - Yes.
What about cosmetics?
- Cosmetics? - Yes.
The last time I bought any was before I got married.
- You brought yours from home? - Yes.
Sir, how often do you purchase sports equipment?
About once a month?
I buy one every three months at the very least.
When he used to work as a taekwondo instructor,
his monthly salary was 600 dollars.
However, he spent 500 dollars on martial arts equipment.
(He spent 500 dollars on martial arts equipment.)
Then he didn't really make any money. He brought 100 dollars home.
Why was your salary only 600 dollars?
Sports instructors or coaches...
usually don't make much money.
Most of them have two jobs to be able to stay in the field.
Have you ever thought of buying her clothes or cosmetics?
- Shouldn't you make sacrifices? - Have you ever thought of it?
If I don't buy the equipment, I can't exercise at all.
Everyone has their necessities,
things we can't live without.
That's what this is for me. Soldiers can't go to war...
- without their firearms. - I need to take a break from this.
(I need to take a break.)
For him, sports equipment is like what guns are to soldiers.
- It's true from his perspective. - He can't live without them.
He's very serious about this.
- Soldiers don't buy guns often. - That's right.
- When soldiers buy a gun, - Right.
- they use it until it's broken. - You're right.
You'd have to shoot the gun 50,000 times for it to break.
(Please think about your family.)
Your wife married you because she loves you.
However, it's a different story for your baby.
- The baby didn't choose this. - Exactly.
The responsibility is for the two of you to share.
Have you ever thought of getting a second job?
- Right, these days... - I had to quit my job...
last month because of my baby. I had no choice.
I worked during my pregnancy.
- For how long? - Almost until the last month.
I worked at a bag store where I had to be on my feet for 12 hours.
- Goodness. - As you know, I was pregnant.
- That would be tough. - My legs were so sore...
I couldn't control my expression. I couldn't hide the pain.
They told me to quit.
I'm assuming your husband had a job when you were...
- working during pregnancy. - He must have worked.
He was working as a mixed martial arts instructor at the time,
making 200 dollars a month.
(His monthly salary was only 200 dollars.)
- Mixed martial arts - He taught mixed martial arts.
The best scenario would be you making a lot of money with that job.
- That's right. - But the salary is not enough.
That's how the industry is. There's nothing he can do.
(That's how the industry is. There's nothing he can do.)
I know that professional athletes don't make a lot of money...
even when they go on real matches.
The ones who aren't famous make about 200 dollars.
Even if they're known to sports enthusiasts,
they don't make much money.
I also only slept for 2 to 3 hours before our baby's due date...
because I worked at a farmers' market from 1pm to 2 to 3pm...
and taught at the gym until midnight.
I worked very hard.
- Because it's his dream, - Right.
he could think that we're focusing too much on money now.
Are you willing to work steadily in a job...
so that your wife doesn't have to suffer so much?
I currently work at a distribution centre.
I started there thinking it would be my last salary-paying job.
I compromised for my wife as well as for my baby.
- That's good. - Great.
- He changed his way of thinking. - Honestly,
different from other sports enthusiast husbands...
- we've met on the show. - Yes, he's different.
I've been wondering why the wife...
to send the story to our show.
Is there something specific that you can't understand?
He got his first salary from his new job.
It was supposed to be 1,400 dollars but 500 dollars was missing.
- Why? - I found out...
he got a tattoo of Kyokushin Karate's symbol on his waist.
(He got a tattoo of Kyokushin Karate's symbol.)
- A tattoo? - He paid 500 dollars for it.
- It cost 500 dollars? - Yes.
(You have a debt to pay off.)
Why did you do that?
- Is this true? - Is that the tattoo?
- Why did you do that?
It's...
You must have gone a few times to complete that tattoo.
The man on the left is Masutatsu Oyama.
(He got a tattoo of his hero, Masutatsu Oyama.)
- That's Masutatsu Oyama, right? - He caught a bull with bare hands.
- Right. - You had that tattooed on you.
That's an expensive tattoo.
He should have waited until he has more money...
- to have it done. - Yes, he could have waited.
Ask the husband directly. Are you scared of him?
- He's younger than me. - Look at him and ask confidently.
Why did you get that tattoo?
(He's avoiding eye contact.)
- Why did you do that? - He's scared.
I'm asking you a question.
(I'm asking you a question.)
Exercise is everything to me.
That's how I feel.
Skipping even just one day of exercise...
makes me feel as if I've sinned.
I don't think I'd be where I am now if I hadn't got the tattoo.
- What do you mean? - I'm under that much stress.
I start getting the urge to hurt myself.
When I can't exercise, I start having negative thoughts.
- It's because he feels bad. - At the time, you needed...
- an outlet. - Yes. As a breakthrough,
I decided to get the face of my hero tattooed on my body.
- It helped me get over the slump. - I see.
I do understand where you're coming from.
- It's not a repeated expense. - It's a one-time thing.
Regardless of whether you're rich or not,
not being able to afford the basic necessities of life...
makes you feel humiliated and defeated.
That must be the most frustrating part.
When I was pregnant,
we couldn't pay rent as well as our utility bills for a few months.
We were struggling so badly, so I even called the call centre.
- The call centre? - Yes.
They just said...
that my husband is still young...
and that he's healthy enough to work.
They said my husband should work and that they can't give us money.
So we ended up getting evicted in December.
- From your home? - Yes. I called the City Hall...
and they provided us with financial assistance.
They gave us 300 dollars a month for about 3 months...
- as support. - I see.
Were you selected as a beneficiary of the basic livelihood support?
I'm sure he has to pay for his gym membership every month.
What does he do when he has no money?
Yes, how does he pay for his gym?
- What does he say? - When that happens,
he doesn't talk to me. He says we should break up.
- Your husband says that? - Yes, he says we should break up...
and that he'll give me alimony. He says...
our son and I are getting in his way.
(You and my son are getting in my way?)
I'm sure he didn't mean it.
(That's so harsh, coming from a loved one.)
- I said it out of anger. - I'm sure.
I also have my own stress and worries.
You still shouldn't have said that.
- My priority is exercise. - Over your family?
Don't you think you're being so unrealistic?
How will you pay alimony? You don't even earn much right now.
- I'll wire her the money. - Sorry?
- What an answer! - He'll wire her money.
Yu Seon, he can wire her the money.
Send her some now, then.
I realised that this is how the husband thinks.
He likes working out more than himself.
- That's right. - He wasn't able to work out...
so he was probably hating everything.
- He was furious. - He shouldn't have married.
(This good husband is angry again today.)
The baby is only 17 months old...
so they just need to buy formula and things like that.
As your son grows, there will be education expenses...
and he'll also start having a dream of his own.
I'm working very hard at the moment.
- As I said, - He's repeating himself.
I will continue working at my company.
My goal is to open a gym before I turn 30 years old.
- What if you can't do it? - What if that doesn't happen?
Will you give up if that doesn't happen?
If I can't do it by then, it'll take a bit longer.
(If I can't do it by then, it'll take a bit longer.)
(What kind of goal is that?)
- I'll do it by 32 or 33. - Where will you get the money from?
Where will you get the money to open a gym?
- Then you should... - Am I wrong?
- You need money for that. - Look at him when you talk to him.
Look at him when you talk to him!
Well...
(Oh, well)
- You need money to open a gym. - Ask him where he'll get the money.
I'll save money after paying off my debt.
- Even if it's a small amount, - You'll save little by little.
- even if it's just 500 dollars. - You'll save 500 dollars a month.
- Yes. - All right.
- I'll open a gym what that money. - I see.
There's only one way to make that happen.
You'll need to win a match and become famous.
The average a family of three needs monthly is 2,030 dollars.
- You make 1,400 dollars. - That's the minimum cost of living.
You're getting tattoos and buying equipment with that money.
This way, your dream will not come true.
For example, "I'll become a famous fighter..."
"and go on a match by this time. If I win that match,"
"I'll reach this level of fame which will..."
"allow me to achieve my goal." I'll understand if you say that.
However, you don't have any concrete plans for your goal.
It's very frustrating to watch. Everyone must be frustrated.
If we know how good he is...
- at Kyokushin Karate, - I'm curious, too.
- we could support him. - Yes.
- Right. - The wife could understand.
Let's meet his acquaintances and ask them.
Yes, let's do that.
The husband's exercise buddies are here today.
Hello!
Welcome to the show. Hello!
Hello.
Are you in the same situation...
as the husband? Please tell us.
Yes. I actually...
quit my old job...
- to run a martial arts studio. - I see.
I don't teach kids...
because I'm doing it for a cause.
The membership fees aren't enough...
because I have debt to pay off, too.
So I had to take up a second job.
Are you married?
No, I'm not married. I didn't want to get myself into this situation.
He's wise.
He's wise, indeed.
- Let's give him a big hand. - He deserves it.
Everyone is applauding for not getting married.
Is this something to be applauded for?
Sir, this isn't the time for you to smile.
I understand how difficult it must be for his wife...
but I can also understand what he's going through.
Objectively speaking,
he is the most skilled one...
at my martial arts studio.
He has been selected as a national player...
to compete for the Asian Championship.
I also spoke to the headquarters to have him compete...
in the upcoming match in Nagasaki.
(I wish she had believed in her husband.)
You said that working out is the most important part...
- of your life. - This is so frustrating.
Then what do your wife and son mean to you?
My family is one of the things that I love.
Exercise, my family and my son.
Where does your wife rank on that list?
My wife...
is a little below exercise.
(She's a little below exercise.)
I'm sure she topped that list before they got married.
- Really? - I'm sure she was.
She's upset. She's tearing up.
Sir, even if that's the case, you shouldn't...
- talk like that in front of her. - Definitely.
- Gosh, seriously. - You can't say that.
- He's so young. - He's immature.
- Who would say such a thing? - Exactly.
We shouldn't have asked him that question.
All right. Is it a worry or not?
(The guests will vote now.)
He has upcoming matches scheduled.
As I listened to him,
I'm starting to think it might not be a worry...
in the near future.
I think that it's a worry.
I think he should be more realistic.
Your son, Gook Jin, whom you love the most...
- He's Geuk Jin, not Gook Jin. - Right, Geuk Jin.
- Geuk Jin. - "Hello?"
- All right. - It's not Kim Gook Jin.
At first, I thought it was a simple worry.
However, having listened to all this,
I think it's a serious worry.
(Dana thinks it's a serious worry!)
- I didn't expect that. - Right.
- I also think it's a worry. - I see.
To me, it almost seems like an addiction.
I don't think it's healthy.
When I go home today, I'm going to look up...
- Masutatsu Oyama's... - Yes, Masutatsu Oyama.
family history and things like that.
I want to find out about his life as I don't know much about him.
- Who pressed the button? - Why does he work?
- I pressed it. - Don't you think so?
- Woo Jae is sneaky. - He changed his mind last minute.
I wasn't being direct because I'm scared of him.
(He wasn't being direct because he's scared.)
The sound of the button startled me as I wasn't expecting it.
(I didn't know the button would make a sound.)
He's a lot funnier than I expected.
- Put yourself in her shoes. - I think he's ready.
- If you think it's a worry, - They look fired up.
please press the button!
(What does the audience think?)
(The sound of buttons clicking is filling up the studio.)
- In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
- All right. - Stop!
- Oh, my. - Many people pressed the button.
- This might get 200 votes. - I know.
The current winner's husband.
Please pass the microphone to him.
- What did you think? - He looks so happy.
I think this is a serious worry.
(Look who's talking.)
In what way? What makes you think that?
I drink but I make sure to protect my family.
He works out when he can't even do that.
I see. You protect your family.
Is that why you keep telling them to come to those bars?
You make them drive for you. That's not exactly protecting.
All right. Let's find out the result now.
Sir.
Please say a few words to your wife.
I'll open a gym as soon as possible and give you a better life.
I won't quit my job and work hard.
Have a little more faith in me.
I love you.
(Believe in me. I love you.)
(Please be a better husband from now on.)
Please show us the result!
That's the last digit.
- It has to be 163 then. - Will it be 153?
- Did it get 153 votes? - Will it be 163?
- Will it be 143? - Will it get 163 votes...
and beat the current winner?
(They lost by one vote.)
- It was short by one vote! - Only one vote.
Sir!
The audience thinks that your case is a little more serious than his.
- He's disappointed. - All right.
We hope your situation improves. Thank you for joining us.
(We'll be rooting for your happiness.)
"I'm Invisible".
It's from a teenage girl.
Hello.
I'm a 17-year-old ugly duckling.
I say, "Mum! Do you know what happened at school today?"
But my mum says, "Gosh, my dear son."
"Did you have a good day at school?"
"How was your day? Tell me."
I talk to her again, "Mum, today at school..."
My mum says, "Really? You scored three goals at the football game?"
"My dear son, I'm so proud of you!"
I guess I'm invisible to my parents.
I think they can only see my brother who is in grade six.
That's not all.
Mum says, "Daughter, make some ramyeon."
"Make some coffee, too."
"Don't forget to wash the dishes."
"Vacuum and do the laundry, too. Hurry up!"
I've been taking care of all sorts of house chores since grade two.
Getting even a drop of water on my brother's hand...
is like the end of the world for my parents.
Also, my brother's dream is to become a football player.
Every weekend, he travels all over the country...
for his training and away games.
I ask, "Will you go with him again this weekend?"
Mum relies, "Of course. I have to be at my son's football match."
"You can cook for yourself, right? I'll see you later!"
If my parents go away for the weekend,
I usually just have ramyeon and milk instead of proper meals.
They're clearly neglecting me, right?
Mum and Dad.
Please pay attention to me, too!
- Oh, no. - I feel so bad for her.
(A cry for help from a neglected daughter)
- Is your family like this, too? - My son is seven years old...
and my daughter is 10 years old now.
Recently, my son was looking through our photo album...
and asking whose photos they were. "This is your sister. This, too."
He asked me why there wasn't as many photos of him.
He kept asking why his sister had to be born first.
He cried his eyes out saying, "I should have been born first."
"I should've been born before her!"
- I'm serious. - A seven-year-old said that?
- Yes, he did. - That's surprising.
But this case is the opposite.
The sister is having a hard time because of her younger brother.
Woo Jae, what about you? You're the only male guest today.
I have an older brother. I'm the younger one.
As you know, parents pay more attention...
to the eldest when it's two boys.
I don't even have any photos from my first birthday.
(He has no photos from his first birthday.)
It used to upset me when I was young.
I'd take the photo now if I could.
- Your first birthday photo? - I'd frame it.
- If you pose, we'll take it. - Yes, please.
- We'll use computer graphics. - Yes.
- Like this? - Yes, look at the camera.
This is Woo Jae's first birthday photo.
- Snap! - His face is so expressionless.
(His face is so expressionless.)
Babies smile a lot. You need to smile.
If you see my childhood photos,
- you'll see that I looked the same. - Is that right?
- You don't smile a lot? - No, I don't.
Let's meet the high school girl who wants...
to be loved by her parents.
Please come on out!
(Let's meet the girl whose parents only love her brother!)
All right, Woo Jae.
(Park Sae Ryung)
(She slides down very quickly.)
What just happened?
(She rushed down to the stage.)
I thought it was a water slide.
- That was so fast. - I really thought there was water.
Please introduce yourself to us.
Hello. I'm from Pyeongtaek.
I'm 17 years old and my name is Park Sae Ryung.
- Sae Ryung. - Welcome.
You seem very confident.
Why do you consider yourself an ugly duckling?
I wasn't sure if this was a serious worry...
but I was so furious on Memorial Day.
That's why I decided to send in my story.
- On Memorial Day? - What happened?
- Why Memorial Day? - Why on that specific day?
We're supposed to pay silent tribute to our war martyrs that day.
My brother had football games for three consecutive days.
- I see. - My mum promised me...
she'd only be away for one day...
but she called me and said, "I'll stay here for another day."
- I felt so betrayed. - Goodness.
Did you decide to come to us...
- at that moment? - Yes.
I must say...
boys and girls are so different.
For boys her age, if their parents go away...
- for one day, - I knew he'd say this.
they'd think, "My mum loves me so much!"
(My mum loves me so much!)
They'd think, "This is a huge gift."
My brother has been playing football since second grade.
That's when they started to talk only about football at home.
I'm really upset because they never listen to me.
Don't you think that it looks that way because your parents...
have more to worry about him because he plays sports?
Has it been like that since he was born?
- Yes, since he was born. - Is that so?
That's what you think.
You were only four but I guess you remember it.
Yes. I fought with my brother when I was seven years old.
My mum only hugged my brother when we were both crying.
I was bawling and rolling on the floor...
but she just let me be.
You were seven years old, though.
Thinking back, your brother was very young then.
Don't you think she hugged him because he was a baby?
But I was bawling and rolling.
I really can't understand why she just left me alone.
- She's still angry. - She's very upset.
- She still remembers it. - She's really angry.
You could say, "Please pay attention to me."
- You can try talking to them. - That's right.
I tried that.
They say, "You're grown up and you're older than him."
"How much more attention do we need to give you?"
They've been saying that since I was seven years old.
A seven-year-old kid is a grown-up?
- Since you were seven? - They said you were grown up...
- when you were seven? - They said that since kindergarten.
Whenever they say that, I feel I'm not their real daughter.
I've thought that many times.
I must say that it's a harsh thing to say to a seven-year-old.
It sounds like you're really upset.
What was the most upsetting incident?
- Something that really upset you. - This one's pretty shocking.
As you know, children get money on New Year's Day.
That's my allowance for the entire year.
- My parents rarely give me money. - The money from New Year's Day?
When my brother says he needs money, my mum gives it to him right away.
When I say I need some, my mum refuses...
and tells me to use the money from New Year's Day.
What's more shocking is that my dad comes to me looking all pitiful...
and says, "I really need some money."
"Can you lend me some?"
Your dad borrows your money instead of giving you allowances?
You must get a lot of money on New Year's Day.
Do you get 10,000 dollars or something?
Because my dad put on such a pitiful act,
I gave him some of my money.
I found the money in my brother's hands.
(I found the money in my brother's hands.)
- Goodness! - He gave the money to your brother?
- How much did you give him? - My brother got it as an allowance.
- How much did you give him? - I gave him a few 10-dollar bills.
- I gave him everything I had. - He gave the money to your brother.
How do you know it's the same money? Did you record the serial numbers?
- Think about it. - Was it a cheque?
- It may not be the same money. - That's right.
I checked. He did give it to my brother.
- He admitted to it? - Yes.
- Did he really do that? - Yes, he did.
- Why did he do that? - That's ridiculous.
- Why? - Goodness.
- What is wrong with him? - You came to "Hello" today.
What did your parents say about it?
When I asked them to come on the show with me,
my mum said it was too embarrassing for her...
but when my brother wanted to go, she agreed.
(Let's go then!)
You'd have felt terrible!
(My heart is in tatters.)
- Let's talk to her mum. - Seriously...
Let's talk to her mum. Hello.
Hello.
(She is a mother who favours her son over her daughter.)
Your daughter is here because she is worried...
you only care about her brother. Do you understand her worry?
- No, I don't. - Not at all?
No, I don't understand. How is that a worry?
- She is all grown up. - But...
you treated her like this since she was seven years old.
Since then, you made her do things on her own as she was grown up.
Regardless of her age,
- I think she's still a child. - You are right.
Sae Ryung is still a child. Jini, are you a grown-up?
I am only a year older than her.
- You still have a few years to go. - What do you think about that?
The past events seem to have traumatised Sae Ryung.
When she was seven years old,
you only hugged her brother even though she was wailing.
I don't remember that incident.
- She answered like a politician. - Their memories are different.
Is it true that Sae Ryung's dad borrowed money from her...
only to give it to her brother?
I only found out about it recently.
He borrowed money because he was desperate...
and gave it to Sae Ryung's brother.
How desperate do you have to be to do that?
- My son... - Did he borrow from loan sharks?
- It doesn't make sense. - How did your son spend the money?
- Shall we ask the son? - What did he need it for?
Hello.
I used the money to go to internet cafes to play games.
(I used the money to go to internet cafes to play games.)
- What did he say? - He went to internet cafes.
That's urgent indeed.
Gaming is important to a boy his age.
When you talk at home,
the topic always revolves around her younger brother.
It stresses Sae Ryung even more.
That's not entirely true.
Sae Ryung talks too much.
When she talks to me about trivial things,
I sometimes can't help but give her half-hearted answers...
because I am tired from work.
That's nothing to take to heart.
There is a reason why she talks a lot.
She talks a lot because she wants your attention.
Your brusque answers...
hurt her feelings but she keeps trying...
- because she loves you. - She wants your attention.
That's why she talks a lot.
Your daughter looks very happy right now...
because everyone is listening to her.
Everyone in the audience is paying attention...
- to your words. - Are you happy today?
Thank you.
She is a good girl.
(We will listen to you.)
Sae Ryung and her mother have different opinions on her worry.
What does her brother think?
You receive all the attention so in your opinion,
do you think this is a worry?
Yes, I think it's a worry.
(Yes, I think it's a worry.)
- He admitted that it is a worry. - He's very direct about it, too.
- Why do you think it's a worry? - How manly!
Both of my parents always come to my competitions...
even though it's not necessary. My sister is always left home alone.
- Your sister is left home alone. - Do you feel bad for your sister?
Yes.
Do you think your parents love you...
- more than your sister? - That's a good question.
Yes. They give me money whenever I ask for some.
Your sister stretches out the money from New Year's Day for a year.
Why do you not give your daughter allowances?
- Sae Ryung never asked for money. - Why not?
She rarely spends money. She has always been like that.
Your mum says she didn't know because you never asked.
Why didn't you ask her for money?
I did ask but my mum...
only hears and remembers what she wants to.
I wanted to improve my grades when I entered high school.
- I asked for after-school classes. - You wanted to study.
However, she said, "Figure it out on your own."
"I can't give you money because the family is struggling."
However, she sends my brother everywhere,
be it training camps, away matches or whatever it is.
I think she just doesn't want to spend money on me.
It's not that Sae Ryung wants to take after-school lessons.
She is simply being greedy and hates her brother.
She only wants to be compensated for everything.
- I think so. - That's what you think.
She could have really wanted to study.
Sae Ryung didn't need after-school classes...
to place 30th in her school in middle school.
She has always been ambitious and smart.
- She placed 30th in her school? - That's right.
It's not a branch school, right?
How many subdivisions were there?
It's very impressive so I was just wondering...
- Maybe there were only 30 students. - Is there a reason...
why you study hard?
- Your mum says you are just smart. - Do you enjoy studying?
No, I studied for my parents' attention.
They wouldn't pay any attention to me otherwise.
- If you don't study, you mean. - That's right.
I don't think that's it.
Sae Ryung is stubborn.
She studies for self-satisfaction,
not our attention.
- My goodness. - Your daughter said otherwise.
Why would you deny it?
- You are very stubborn. - You are very stubborn.
Why would you not believe her? You should listen to your child.
Ma'am, from what you told us, let me say this.
I still live with my parents.
My parents and I still argue a lot mostly because...
when I think one way,
my mum says, "You only think that because of this and that."
- She thinks she knows everything... - You're right.
that's going on my head and this causes the most arguments.
You keep saying,
"That's not it. This is what she thinks."
That's what you keep repeating.
I think Sae Ryung must be very upset.
(Sae Ryung's mother denies the fact...)
(that her daughter is still in need of attention.)
She said she's left home alone for two nights...
- on weekends. - That's right.
What do you do when you are alone?
They always go, "You can take care of yourself, right?"
I just have ramyeon or milk.
My friends' parents take care of them after school.
I'm sad that my parents don't.
It's understandable.
- You said earlier... - Can't one parent stay home?
Why do both parents have to go?
I didn't want to say this...
in case Sae Ryung became more jealous or upset.
Most dads like it when their sons...
are good at football. I am the same.
Even though my son plays defense, he scores goals.
Watching him makes me happy.
- I am so proud of him. - She placed 30th in her school.
Why do you only talk about your son?
- Sae Ryung is good at her studies. - Sae Ryung is a grown-up.
Why is he scoring goals when he's playing defense?
- Your son specifically said... - He should be defending.
He would prefer if only one parent came to his games.
He's just worried about his sister.
Both my husband and I want to see him play.
Isn't it sad Sae Ryung is surviving on milk and ramyeon?
I prepare meals before I go. She is the one who doesn't eat them.
- Do you make meals before you go? - Of course I do.
- Does she do that? - No, she doesn't.
- I leave her some money, too. - Who's telling the truth?
We don't know who to listen to.
Let's ask her about the meals she prepared for Sae Ryung.
What did you prepare for her before leaving for two nights?
I made sundubu, Sae Ryung's favourite.
- I see. - Her grandmother lives nearby.
She can go to her place. She just doesn't want to go.
- Is that all you made for her? - Just sundubu?
She doesn't eat a lot. She doesn't eat what's at home.
She is so stubborn!
- Her mother is the stubborn one. - She is so stubborn!
Sae Ryung's younger brother said it is a worry.
He was a man and admitted it must be hard for his sister.
- He is manly. - Sae Ryung's younger brother.
Are you nice to Sae Ryung?
The story only adds up if you are.
- I don't know. - I see.
- He doesn't know. - Does Sae Ryung treat you nicely?
- No. - Most siblings argue.
- You don't think she likes you? - No.
Do you think Sae Ryung mistreats her brother?
- It's normal for siblings to argue. - It is, right?
However, Sae Ryung never talks nicely to her brother.
He always speaks nicely to his sister.
My brother looks down on me.
- How? - He wanted water...
so I brought him a cup and a bottle of water.
Because I didn't pour water for him, he called me rude.
- Your brother said that to you. - Yes.
- My goodness. - Is that true?
- It's true. - I am sure he was joking.
Is this true?
I don't remember.
(I don't remember.)
It must be a family trait.
- None of them remembers. - They don't remember.
They are all stubborn, too.
(They get amnesia when it's convenient for them.)
Is your younger brother often rude to you?
Yes. He makes me angry on purpose.
"I bet you don't have any friends because you are a loser."
Things like that make me hate him even more.
Ma'am, did you know about this?
Yes, I did.
I wouldn't treat my brother nicely either if he did that.
You should have told him off for that.
In my opinion, he is not the one who started it.
- No, listen to me. - Sae Ryung...
- Let's say she started it. - Okay.
It's still wrong for him...
- to be so rude to her. - Of course.
Of course I tell him off. I am not a terrible parent.
Sae Ryung is four years older than him, too.
I tell him off first in situations like that.
Even when I do tell him off, Sae Ryung thinks...
she is being mistreated.
- Also... - Sae Ryung,
I'm sure you like your brother sometimes,
like when he comes home after football.
(Shaking her head)
- Why not? - This started in kindergarten.
- It is hard for her to like him. - Why is there a wall in your heart?
Did your parents' favouritism cause you...
- to dislike your brother? - I grew up hearing,
"You need to be understanding because you are a grown-up."
Those words made you close up towards your brother.
I don't want to hear anything about my brother.
It's understandable.
When were you the most upset at your mum...
for siding with your brother?
I was sleeping in during the weekend because I was tired...
and my brother began to sing in the next room.
- I told him to be quiet. - He must be a jolly boy.
My mum said,
"You are inherently bad."
(You are inherently bad.)
"That's why this fights happen. He's such a docile boy."
"He's not capable of being angry."
- Inherently bad? - Yes.
- She said I was born that way. - Did you really say that?
- No way. - Well,
- I must have said it in anger. - I'm sure you did.
You know where she gets it from if she is inherently bad, right?
(You know where she gets it from, right?)
(Laughing)
I was angry.
Sae Ryung's brother was at fault, too.
She could have asked him nicely but she always curses.
That's why I said those things to Sae Ryung.
It's wrong to curse. Why did you curse?
- I didn't curse. - What is going on?
What in the world is going on?
- Do we need a surveillance camera? - Who is telling the truth?
What kind of curse words are you talking about?
- Were they very vulgar? - Was it "You little rascal"?
"Gosh, darn it. Stop singing!" Was it something like this?
- That's cursing. - That's right.
"Be quiet, stupid!"
Did she use vulgar curse words?
For example, when Sae Ryung is getting water,
her brother asks, "Can you get me some too?"
She goes, "You get your own stupid water."
It's very upsetting to hear.
To be honest,
I still think it's wrong to label her as inherently bad...
and side with her brother even if she did use such words.
Those words can be more hurtful than curse words.
Let's hear from a third party.
Please introduce yourself. Hello.
- Hello, I am Sae Ryung's aunt. - Aunt.
(Sae Ryung's aunt is close to the family.)
What do you think? Do you think it's a worry?
Yes, I think it's a big worry for my niece.
I watched her growing up.
My sister clearly favoured her son ever since he was little.
Because of that,
Sae Ryung always spoke badly of her mother.
She said her mother is like a stepmother.
It was upsetting.
You're her elder sister.
How does it feel to hear these words from your sister?
I don't agree with her.
(I don't agree with her.)
I don't know.
(You are the only one who doesn't know.)
I understand how Sae Ryung's mother feels.
- It's understandable. - She works.
It's incredibly hard to work and raise children at the same time.
- It's not easy. - When I was in a sitcom,
I was very busy. My daughter told me few years later...
that she had not seen me for six months back then.
I went straight back home after work...
without seeing anyone actually.
I tried very hard on my part...
to see my daughter eat breakfast in the morning...
even if it meant less sleep for me.
That's why my daughter's words surprised me very much.
What children feel doesn't always reflect the fact...
- that we tried out best. - That's right.
That's why it is important to empathise with your child.
The relationship will improve if you empathise, not judge.
- I agree. - It needs to be...
the kind of empathy that is not faked.
Otherwise, it will drive your child further way.
"I am struggling." "I understand."
"I am hurting." "I see, you're hurting."
If you do that, your child will go,
"Stop saying that you understand!" I am serious.
"I understand you still have money from New Year's Day."
What is your biggest worry...
now that you are in high school?
I have to go to university soon.
I worry about my career path...
but my parents think nothing of it.
What dreams do you have for the future?
Since I was in eighth grade, I was interested in the military...
- Female soldier? - so I looked into it.
I looked up military academies...
but both of my parents said...
none of the academies would take me, which upset me.
That's what they said right away.
You felt you were capable.
- I wanted to try. - That's right.
- Why did you say that? - You shouldn't discourage her.
Sae Ryung doesn't take being a soldier seriously.
Soldiers need to be trained.
Ma'am, it's not easy to become a football player either.
I know it's not, but I think it will be harder...
- for a woman to become a soldier. - You worry about your daughter.
- Of course I worry about her. - That's how you feel.
Didn't you think to sit down with Sae Ryung...
to talk about what she wants to do in the future?
We do talk about it together. She is good at Korean Literature.
I told her that it would be nice for her to teach that subject.
I also think it would be nice for her to become a pharmacist.
I suggested stable jobs for her future.
If Sae Ryung told you she wanted to be a soldier,
you should have explained the difficulties before you said no.
Because you dismissed her idea right away,
she felt you were ignoring her.
Let's find out what Sae Ryung wants to hear the most.
What would you like to hear from your mum?
Mum always showers my brother with compliments...
about how he has improved and always works hard.
I feel like I have nothing for her to be proud about.
Please compliment me on something.
She wants a compliment.
"You are a grown-up. You don't need looking after."
It's wrong to say such things to your child.
She wants a heart-felt compliment.
Don't just say, "Good job."
She thinks she has never been complimented like that.
- Well... - Say it to her directly.
Sae Ryung, you are...
very polite to adults.
Even though her grandmother lives nearby,
I can't look in on her often since I am busy.
When time allows it,
Sae Ryung buys tteokbokki and bread...
to take to her grandmother to eat.
- Sae Ryung listens to her. - She is a nice girl.
She has always been a nice girl who always does a good job.
- Then you should praise her. - You should encourage her.
Tell that to Sae Ryung.
Sae Ryung.
"You are a good daughter, Sae Ryung."
Sae Ryung, I am incredibly grateful that you are my daughter.
Please be understanding and I will try harder.
You keep asking...
your daughter to understand.
- You ask her to be understanding. - "You are a nice girl."
"Please understand me." You keep forcing that.
There is something I'd like to say to Sae Ryung's mother.
Even parents need to apologise to their children...
if their mistakes have hurt them.
I think you should apologise for saying...
that she is inherently bad and soothe her pain.
It was wrong for me to say that.
Sae Ryung, I hope you would...
open up a little bit more to your brother from now on.
I will pay more attention to you and treat you nicely.
How does hearing her words make you feel?
I am thankful that I got to know how she feels.
She's about to cry.
(It's heartbreaking.)
You should say a few words to your brother.
Talk to him.
- Open up your heart. - Give it a try.
He is your only brother.
I am sorry for always being angry at you.
I will try not to curse at you any more. Thank you.
She admitted to cursing at him.
(She did curse at him.)
She is a nice girl.
I can tell she loves her brother.
Talking to her family made her tear up.
I hope your Memorial Day will be more meaningful from now on.
(No more worries to be sent in on Memorial Day from next year)
- You felt... - This made us think deeply.
- You felt your mum's love, right? - Yes.
Give the love you receive from her to your brother, okay?
- That's right. - All right.
Let's start with Yu Seon.
- Do you think it's a worry? - Press the button if it is.
You think it's a worry.
The relationship is still healthy if she's expressing her feelings.
She could have easily decided to avoid her mother...
but she still wants to spend time with her.
That means there is still chance for Sae Ryung's mother.
- That's what I think. - I don't think it's a worry.
At first, I thought it was a very serious worry.
Since Sae Ryung is very wise and smart,
she will become a good sister...
who gives love to her brother. That's why I say it's not a worry.
What about you, Jini?
I think it's a worry.
If you think it's a worry,
please press the button.
(What does the audience think?)
- In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Time's up.
Sae Ryung's mum is surprised at all the buttons being clicked.
(Sae Ryung's mum is surprised by the sound of the buttons.)
Let's see how many votes her story received. Show us the result.
"I'm Invisible".
The current winner is...
"Change My Husband".
Will it be 159?
It's 109.
Thank you. Exit through the back.
(Survived)
Sae Ryung is so nice.
Sae Ryung, smile.
All right. You are pretty when you smile.
(Sae Ryung returns to her mother.)
(Hugging)
She gave her mum a hug.
(She is so nice.)
Ma'am, put down the microphone and give her a big hug.
That's right. Isn't it nice?
(They share love through their body temperature.)
- Why are you crying? - Dana is crying.
Is there something in your eyes?
No.
(Look up Hello on search engines to see epilogues.)
Everyone is teary-eyed.
"I Want to Destroy Everything".
Hello, I am a 27-year-old man from Ulsan.
I have a fiendish friend...
who always gets me into trouble.
This happened at 1am when I was studying for an exam.
He called me and said, "My friend, I'm drinking with a pretty girl."
"Come on over. I will be nice..."
"and introduce you to her."
With high hopes, I dressed up and headed out.
I called him and said, "I am in a taxi. Where exactly are you?"
He replied, "I'm at home."
I said, "What are you talking about?"
He said, "I pulled your leg because I was bored. Are you really out?"
"My goodness, you are so stupid. I can't believe you fell for it."
He has been making a fool of me for 11 years.
- He's so mischievous. - Oh, no.
What drives me more mad...
is that everyone thinks...
he's so polite.
- They say he's a good person. - Others think so?
Today, I'm determined to reveal he's actually evil.
One day we were walking past a staircase that was being built.
He said, "How high do you think this is?"
"Shall we jump?"
I told him, "Are you crazy? We're 3m up."
"Why would we jump?"
He replied, "We're men, aren't we?"
"Let's jump on three."
"Just jump. One, two, three."
(Screaming)
"It is quite high."
(It is quite high.)
"Very high, actually."
"Are you all right?"
I was the only one who jumped...
- and needed crutches for a while. - He's so naive.
My friend is always mocking me and I want to destroy him.
What should I do?
I need your help.
(Stop pulling practical jokes.)
Young men always tease and pull jokes on their friends.
and these two are 27 years old,
so he won't keep it up for much longer. What do you think?
- They tend to do that. - I'm usually the victim.
- Are you? - Yes.
My sister once took my clothes...
and denied it.
She denied it fervently,
but then she uploaded a photo of her wearing it.
- You caught her red-handed. - Yes.
If I tell her off for things like that,
she rubs the toilet bowl with my toothbrush.
- You sister does that? - Yes.
I found out a few days ago but she's been doing it for years.
That's not a joke, that's just mean.
It's mean, isn't it?
- The toilet bowl... - Exactly.
So I did it right back.
(I got my revenge.)
She'll be shocked.
One of you might show up here soon.
I'd love to.
What kind of practical jokes do young girls pull these days?
When I was in middle school, I lived in a dormitory in the States.
I lived with my friends...
and one of them mixed hair dye into my shampoo.
- That's going too far. - Did it change your hair colour?
Yes, I came out of the shower with yellow hair.
- So... - That's extreme.
Don't some people fill diet pills with a supplement...
that actually makes you gain weight?
Dana, we'll see you here soon.
- I think so. - No.
Who did that to me? Who was it?
- Why else would I be so big? - It's just...
(She's hilarious.)
Let's meet the man and find out how serious the problem is.
Come on out.
(We need to swap tapes.)
Sorry. Come back in a while.
Not just yet.
(Oh, no!)
Sorry.
(Oh, dear.)
- He's perfect to play jokes on. - I want to tease him now.
- He's a perfect victim. - I get it now.
Anyone would want to tease him.
That explains a lot.
- He seems the perfect candidate. - Stop it.
He looks like the perfect victim for such jokes.
(Swapping tapes)
- Ready? - Yes.
- Let's tell him to wait again. - Let's...
(Let's think of something else.)
Please come on out.
(This is the man who's fed up after 11 years of practical jokes.)
You can really come out now.
(He looks afraid.)
(Uhm Jae Chul)
(He looks somewhat clumsy.)
(Wavering)
I want to tease him.
- Me, too. - My goodness.
Excuse me.
I want to tease you.
(I see why he's a victim.)
Did you really end up with crutches because of your friend's prank?
I was on my way home...
after messing up my license exam.
He said, "You messed up your exam."
"Let's jump and let off some steam."
We were about 3m up and he counted to three.
So I jumped.
My friend...
just smiled down at me.
(His friend smiled down at him from above.)
My landing wasn't perfect so I fractured my heel...
and ruptured a toe ligament.
- Oh, dear. - I was moaning in pain...
but my friend just looked down and laughed.
(His friend found it funny.)
- Why did you jump? - You're right.
You didn't have to.
He suggested we jump...
and I agreed to it because I thought he'd jump with me.
He teased you for so long. Didn't you suspect something?
Don't you trust your friends?
- What? - They're friends.
- You don't doubt your friends? - I don't.
Anyone will doubt him after all this.
(There's room for doubt all over the place.)
You're asking for it.
(He's asking for it.)
How did the exam go?
- I failed. - Okay.
My friend passed.
(Only his friend passed.)
He passed and you failed.
Then he really fell down 3m.
He failed an exam, fell and broke a foot.
What else did he do to you?
One day, we had to catch the last train to go home.
It was pulling into the platform so I ran.
- To get on the train. - Yes.
My friend suddenly called me.
He said I had poop on my pants.
I looked down out of shock...
and my friend...
was walking up to me with a grin.
That's when it hit me ...
but by then, the train had left.
- It left. - Yes.
What's important here...
is that my friend...
got on that last train.
He took the last train.
- He left. - After lying to you...
He left.
My house was two hours away and I had to walk home.
- You walked home? - Did you poop that day?
No, not at all.
There would be no other reason to have poop on your pants.
Did you defecate once before?
(You must have pooped on your clothes in the past.)
- Be honest. - Maybe.
- No, I promise. - No?
Let me ask you this. When he first mentioned the poop,
didn't you stop to wonder if it was another lie?
Not at the time.
- At that moment... - My goodness.
You just get lost in the moment.
He talks with sincerity.
- Even about the poop? - Yes.
- "I'm serious." - "You really have poop on them."
"There's poop on your trousers."
- He talks seriously. - Yes.
- He must be a great actor. - In most cases,
pranksters tend to be good actors.
I'm sure, and the victims are usually like this.
(Victims usually look like this.)
- Always. - Before he came out...
- They trust easily. - It's so unfair.
We can all see you feel it's unfair.
Let's meet your friend.
Hello, where are you?
Hello.
Look at him.
Why do you tease your friend?
- He's my best friend... - Okay.
and he's so much fun to tease.
- I see. - That's why I tease him.
What about the jumping incident?
It started as a joke that we should jump...
if we messed up our exams.
I was counting to three...
but he was already gone.
(He had jumped already.)
I counted to two and he was on the ground.
I saw him clutch his ankle and writhe in pain...
so realised I shouldn't jump.
Didn't you feel bad?
Didn't you feel guilty about his injury?
There was nothing to feel guilty about.
I didn't force him to jump. It was a joke.
- Were you going to jump? - If I had really...
planned ahead, it'll be a crime.
It was just a joke.
Based on past experiences, didn't you know he'd fall for it?
- I knew. - See?
- That's all we needed to know. - It's a crime.
(It's the perfect crime.)
Have you ever felt furious about any of his jokes?
I was the most furious...
after the enlistment incident.
I couldn't make up my mind about where to enlist...
and he suggested we join the Air Force.
He said things like...
"The open runway,"
"amazing fighter jets."
"They get long holidays, let's join the Air Force."
- "The open runway..." - Well...
"Amazing fighter jets..."
- He persuaded me so I enlisted. - Okay.
The day of the interview came.
I called my friend...
and he said his interview was on the next day.
- "You go first." - Yes.
The day of enlistment was coming.
The date had been set.
That's when he called me.
"I heard you're enlisting."
- What? - So I said, "Hang on."
"Aren't you coming with me?"
He said, "What? I'm not going."
When did he enlist, then?
He'd applied to serve in the army.
He enlisted after I did.
Your expression and the way you're speaking...
makes me think you're acting.
Is this true?
- It is completely true. - It's so unbelievable.
Is he usually like this?
He's a bit clueless.
- Is this all true, then? - Is he usually like this?
That's how he speaks.
If this is true,
you shouldn't have joked about the army.
It's true that I considered joining the Air Force...
but when I did some research,
I found out their service was the longest.
You're right.
That's why they get many holidays.
- It was insane. - They just get longer breaks.
- So... - You should've told you friend.
I told him about how fantastic the Air Force was.
He wanted to join...
so I couldn't tell him I didn't want to go.
Why didn't you tell him about the extended serving period?
- Ask him how it was. - I think that Jae Chul...
wanted to join the Air Force...
because he assumed his friend would come along.
- That's right. - I think...
- It's wrong. - he went too far.
- He teased me a lot about it. - How?
He enlisted a month after I did...
but he was discharged two months before me.
- They are discharged earlier. - Yes.
He said, "Are you still a soldier?"
(Are you still a soldier?)
Did you ever have a big go at him?
Even cursing and screaming at him.
I did, after the army incident.
I cursed at him.
He just grinned.
- Even when you cursed at him? - Yes.
- How do you vent your anger? - I bet we're all curious.
- Show us. - Re-enact for us.
(He's really angry.)
(It's already getting awkward.)
Don't you think you've gone too far?
I can't express my anger.
(He's not scary at all.)
Is he incapable of showing his anger?
I think he does get angry...
but it's not scary at all.
He doesn't look angry.
He doesn't look threatening.
I think that's why I keep teasing him.
Why is it hard for you to show you're angry?
I don't want to cause...
- You don't want to cause trouble. - Yes.
- What's good is good. - Yes.
Did you never get so furious you had to scream...
or smash something?
Were you never that angry?
I never smashed anything.
- Do you have siblings? - I have a younger brother.
If you asked for water,
did he ever say, "Get it yourself"?
(Was he never angry with his brother?)
He's adorable.
- Is he well-behaved? - Yes.
What would you do if he made a lot of noise...
when you're trying to sleep?
He's very noisy.
Then I'd tell him to quieten down.
- What would he say? - Does he listen?
- He quietens down. - What a happy family.
(They are as peaceful as a dove.)
When did your friend upset you the most?
I'm going through a tough time.
I graduated from college and I'm looking for a job.
My family is putting pressure on me and I feel inadequate.
- These days? - Yes.
He calls himself a friend but he says,
"Are you still without a job? I'm working."
- He teases me about that. - I see.
I'm really struggling but that's all he has to say.
Everything is a joke to him and that's upsetting.
What would you like him to do?
I just want him to stop teasing me.
- To stop teasing you. - Maybe not take the jokes too far.
He just teases without encouraging you.
Wasn't that too harsh? You're working, he's not.
Something similar happened before.
He said he's at home studying for his license exam but he's not.
He's always logged into a game.
That's why he failed.
So this time I tried to be harsh...
to motivate him to study harder.
Why can't you talk to him sincerely?
He never changes. He's too weak.
He will end up on his bed staring at his phone again.
There are some things you should not joke about.
- There are. - For example, family issues...
- It's difficult. - or not finding a job.
However close you may be,
- That's just wrong. - it's a terrible thing to do.
Didn't you ever want to encourage him in the hard times...
and tell him that you're on his side?
I do comfort him in my own way.
I do, and even when I tease him,
I do have a line.
I don't cross that line.
You're wrong.
- Comforting... - What is this line?
- Where is it? - Is it when he cracks a foot?
Around that mark?
Maybe not as severe as a fracture.
- He won't take it further. - Fractures are not acceptable.
Would you consider talking to him to adjust that limit?
People don't change.
I don't think I'll change overnight and playing jokes is my only joy.
I love to tease people.
- I can't live without doing that. - Forget your only joy.
What if all this builds up and he decides...
- to stop being your friend? - Because he's so hurt.
I don't cross a line.
You wouldn't be here if you didn't cross a line.
He's here because it's gone too far.
What if he were to disappear?
What if he left for three years to learn Kyokushin Karate for revenge?
(Here's my revenge!)
What do you think?
You should take it up.
The only thing we can do for you is give you advice.
Let's give him some tips.
I think you need to sort out your protruding chin.
- His jaw sticks out. - He needs to put it in.
I think a new pair of glasses would help change his image.
Can you take them off?
- Wear contact lenses. - Your whole face...
That's better.
- looks so kind. - Those glasses...
make him look like a cartoon character.
That's the first thing I thought when I saw him.
They're thick, too.
Are your eyebrows always drooping like that?
Is it because of the makeup?
I wouldn't think so.
- He is wearing makeup. - Really?
They drew it in.
When you draw your eyebrows, since they slant downwards,
- draw them like this. - Men don't draw eyebrows.
- He wore makeup for the show. - Maybe he could shape them.
- How should he shape them? - I think he could...
Why don't you tattoo them like this?
- Like this. - Try raising your eyebrows.
Just by a little.
They won't go up.
Doesn't it look better?
(That looks better.)
I want him to practise looking stern.
- Keep a stern face. - Even if someone teases you...
- "So what?" - Don't react.
this kind of face takes away all the fun.
The teasing continues because it's fun.
Take the fun out of it for your friend.
He finds it hard to say no and when he does say no,
he has a fear that people will think less of him...
which began in his childhood.
Even if you refuse something, people won't leave you.
You're informing them of your preferences.
- Of course. - Forget about others.
You getting angry won't cause trouble.
What would you like to say?
From now on...
(Taking a deep breath)
From now on, don't tease me too much.
(Wow)
If you go too far,
(I have to be serious.)
(Stick your chin in.)
I won't take it any more.
- He's so cute. - I don't believe you.
(I don't believe you.)
I won't take it any more.
- He's too nice. - Say that, too.
He calls it shock therapy but how do you feel?
What you said really hurt me.
I want you to change your ways, give me good advice...
and stop teasing me.
Can you say you love him?
I love you.
(I love you.)
He's so sweet.
Yu Seon, is this a worry or not?
When I listened to Chan Woo read his story,
I got so stressed and upset that I wondered why they're friends.
I didn't get it but having met them both,
- I don't think it's a worry. - Okay.
I don't think it's a worry but I must say one thing.
Men who tease their best friends...
are a woman's worst nightmare.
Jini.
I don't think it's a worry.
I think he teases his friend because he likes him so much.
Just take it down a notch.
I don't think it's a worry.
If you think Jae Chul's problem is a worry,
please press your button.
(What does the audience think?)
- In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Stop!
If you get less than 30 votes,
you two have to help clean up the set.
Did you believe that?
You have to clean this up if you get less than 30 votes.
- He fell for it. - I...
Oh, you're lying.
(Oh, you're lying.)
That's not it but you have to jump from there.
What do you have to say to Jae Chul?
I don't think I can stop teasing you...
so try to play along.
I'll surprise you with bigger events from now on.
(I'll surprise you with bigger events.)
Events are all good but don't cause bodily harm...
- or say something hurtful. - That's right.
"I Want to Destroy Everything". How many votes did he get?
Let's see the result.
Maybe 32 votes.
- Gosh. - Am I right?
- 42 or 52 votes? - There are quite a few votes.
- Really? - 42?
He received 52 votes.
"Change My Husband" is the winner for the second week.
You get a 1,000-dollar gift certificate.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Until the day we are all worry-free...
Hello will continue to counsel you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
("Windy Day" by OH MY GIRL)
