Seriously.
No one knows that story.
This is what we talk about.
(Our outstanding hosts shock and torture the guests.)
You never warned me about this.
- Show me. - She's upset.
They met up without me.
Who? Jun Hyun Moo?
Ji Suk, Hyun Moo...
(You'll feel good after the show.)
You're a diamond in the rough.
(I think we found a gem.)
Tens of thousands of dollars.
You're all so quiet.
(The model's own world)
There might be huge aftermath.
(Two very cool ladies and two very cool men)
(This is what they did on Radio Star.)
(The "Aren't We Cool?" show begins now.)
Today's four guests are so cool, they are capable of turning...
the nice spring breeze into a frigid storm.
Welcome to our "Aren't We Cool?" episode.
Our first guest has been acting for 11 years,
but we know him best for being on "I Live Alone".
With Gang Dong Won and Yim Si Wan, he's one of the engineering majors,
but in reality, he just fixes his friends' broken electronics.
We have Actor Ha Seok Jin.
(He's a skilled mechanic.)
What was that?
It sounded like a rap.
He overreacted.
You sounded fake.
(He should learn from MC Gree.)
Introduce your guest.
Okay, our next guest...
used to be friends with Prince William.
In dramas, he's the lead's friend.
Today, he's here as Seok Jin's friend.
His expertise is in playing a friend role,
but he actually has a licence to teach English and German.
He's very smart, he could slap AlphaGo's cheek.
Does AlphaGo have cheeks?
- It's a computer. - On the monitor?
- What's the cheek? - Next to the CPU.
It's a figure of speech.
He's smart enough to beat AlphaGo.
We have the talented, Kim Ji Suk.
Our next guest is very close with So, Kong and Lee.
- Top stars... - What?
- Just say it. - Who are they?
She's a stylist that works with superstars.
But on "My Little Television",
- she's the woman who loves babies. - Tell us.
Who are So, Kong and Lee?
So Ji Sub, Lee Hyo Ri, Kong Hyo Jin.
(So Ji Sub, Lee Hyo Ri, Kong Hyo Jin)
The old lady who swears.
Please welcome Stylist Han Hye Yeon.
She is the first Korean model to walk down the runway...
in New York, Milan and Paris, the top three fashion destinations.
To us, she's just a girl with slit eyes...
who likes to tell dirty stories.
I just saw her eyes, and she seems angry.
I hope she'll shake it all off and come in like a model.
Please welcome Model Han Hye Jin.
(Ha Seok Jin, Kim Ji Suk, Han Hye Yeon, Han Hye Jin)
Hye Yeon's top is very revealing.
Can someone shut the door?
(She wears off-the-shoulder top.)
- Seok Jin. - Yes?
Did you say you wouldn't be on a show without Jun Hyun Moo?
There aren't that many left.
I'm glad you came to Radio Star.
He's a big deal to people like us.
Did you really say the following to Hyun Moo?
"I think Gu Ra is a better host than you."
That upset him, did it?
- I was kidding. - I see.
I was on a show called "The Geeks".
I told Hyun Moo about it and he asked about Gu Ra.
"He's a great host. Maybe better than you."
- I said it really nonchalantly. - I see.
At first, Hyun Moo said, "Of course, he's been around for years,"
but then he got upset.
Hyun Moo, you're the best.
The difference between me and him is...
- He's just... - The difference?
- Will you tell us? - I should.
This will make sense to you.
He's from the sewers.
It's like...
(Shocked by choice of words)
He's just bathing in...
The sewer just mentioned itself.
He's just bathing in the sewer.
I drink whatever's in the sewer.
- That's it. - He's worse.
He is the sewer.
We're on different levels.
What's the difference?
He acts crazy, but I am actually crazy.
(Is the truth coming out?)
Seok Jin voiced his determination to get rid of...
the man with the sexy brain image that he's so sick of.
- I don't want to get rid of it. - Why should you?
I thought that here, I can say things I couldn't before.
It's a good reputation to have.
It means you're smart.
Not everyone can be called like this.
Do you have a reputation you want to get rid of?
I'm satisfied with mine.
Okay...
Yours isn't that great.
What is it?
What do people think you're like?
- I'm smart, too. - What image do you have?
- A sexy brain? - Yes.
- You aren't that smart. - A bit royal.
- What? - Royal.
- It's not too bad. - He's right.
- You have a good image. - I do.
- A royal. - A royal?
Hye Jin, what about you?
People think I'm tough.
- A tough girl. - Yes. Scary.
I'm not, but people think I am.
You're the only one with crossed legs.
That's because...
- Do you see my knees? - That attitude...
- It's my knees. - Your legs are too long.
The table's too low.
- It's true. She's stuck. - Is that possible?
No way.
I saw you when you were getting your mics fixed.
- She's a head taller than you. - Wait, no.
She gave me these to wear.
- Blame her. - So she'll stand out.
She looks way too tall.
- It's over 10cm. - You're killing her.
Don't clowns wear stilts like that?
- In theme parks. - Stand next to her.
- She's much taller. - She is.
My legs won't go under the table.
How tall are you? 170cm?
177cm, but my heels are high.
- Can you stand up for us? - Me?
Go over there.
- I'm 170cm tall. - They're mocking you.
- Is that you standing up? - You aren't 170cm.
- You're 169cm. - You are under 170cm.
- Are you standing up? - He's 169cm.
- He's 168cm. - Does it matter?
Stand next to me and I'll get up.
- She's much taller. - I'm ready.
See?
(They are of different species.)
(Jong Shin's shoulder are on Hye Jin's waist level.)
Look where her waist is.
- My shoes are too high. - Her waist is at his chest.
It's next to his neck.
He's used to that though.
It doesn't feel awkward at all.
- Because of your wife? - Yes.
(No wonder it was a familiar scene.)
Ji Suk, people know you more as...
Lee Jin Uk's friend.
Or Lee Dong Wook's friend.
Don't let it get to you.
Comedian Yeom Gyeong Hwan is known as Gu Ra's friend.
He used to be called "Gyeong Hwan's friend".
- Not anymore. - Things have changed.
- He's more famous. - I'm just Kim Gu Ra.
Gyeong Hwan's called Gu Ra's friend.
- It can't be helped. - I think...
- Aren't I right? - The friend's role...
is very important because it's used to portray the lead's character.
Isn't that an important role?
- We know that. - It has to be done.
You're known as a friend of Jin Uk and Dong Wook's.
- You're very positive. - I just want you to remember that.
- "Remember that". - "Remember that".
- Why should he? - I have nothing to say.
The guy with famous friends.
(Thinking of his friends' success makes him smile.)
I guess Ji Suk didn't quite like being introduced as...
Seok Jin's friend.
You asked who the crew invited on the show first.
Does that matter?
If I were to say so...
It is important in a way.
- How old are you both? - We're the same age.
Do you speak to each other formally?
We do when we call each other.
We address each other politely.
We've known each other for many years,
but we never worked together or got very close.
- Now... - We do variety shows together.
Speaking formally after knowing each other for years...
You meet every week.
You started off on the wrong foot.
- I... - I want to keep it this way.
Just the names.
We talk to each other like friends,
but addressing each other formally is more respectful.
I read this in an interview.
Jung Woo Sung and Lee Jung Jae...
- We were copying them? - They've been friends for 20 years.
If we're just copying them, I'll just call his name instead.
- He has pride. - I won't be a copycat.
He's Mr Pride.
We could be the next generation of Woo Sung and Jung Jae...
(He wants to be like them.)
Hye Yeon, you're known...
- for using exaggerated terms. - Yes.
You have a unique way of complimenting people.
When others see something they like, they say things like, "That's nice."
I go to the extreme.
- To the client? - Yes.
The client could be a model or a celebrity.
- Then... - Do you say that to your mother?
Of course.
- For example? - "Mum, we look like sisters now."
Like that.
- Things like that. - Every woman should say that.
- It's not just about money. - Such praise...
- Compliment people you love. - Exactly.
- What about to Hye Jin? - Say she's striking a pose.
We use digital cameras and the shot appears on the monitor.
I say things even before it pops up on the screen.
- Before seeing it. - I speak first.
- What do you say? - "Girl."
"You nailed it. You're done."
(Let's call it a day.)
- After just one frame. - You're like me.
- "You're amazing." - She just wants to go home.
"There's nothing more to see."
"There's nothing more to do."
It really shows in the photos.
Could you compliment us?
- I'm too honest. - She can't because...
- she curses at the same time. - I do.
Just do it.
- It's okay. Go for it. - Talk to me instead.
To her, I say things like, "Hey, you're perfect today."
We like that.
- It's in the way she says it. - "Just spit it all out."
That's how I speak.
I don't make a serious face as if I'm really swearing.
- I... - Why are you doing that?
- It's because... - What's wrong?
I'm very sorry. It's just that...
- my top... - It's stretched.
- What's wrong? - It's too tight.
- My blood isn't circulating. - "What is she doing?"
- I thought... - I have thick shoulders.
- It won't go down any further. - No.
It keeps sneaking up toward my neck.
I was wondering what you were doing.
My blood isn't circulating well.
(Off-the-shoulder, no circulation)
Hye Yeon and Hye Jin are known in the industry as best friends.
On hearing that Hye Jin said she'd rely on her on the show,
- Hye Yeon said this. - Wait.
"Why in the world would she rely on me?"
She said a few other things, too.
Do you usually speak that aggressively or with attitude?
To be honest,
- I don't say it with ill will. - We know that.
- We get it. - I know it's a bad habit,
but it's really hard to change my ways now.
If the people I know told me to change how I talk, I would have.
- But they seem to like it. - Is it because they're scared?
I curse with a smile.
- Okay, so... - "I curse with a smile."
- You talk that way to good friends. - Oh, of course.
Do you say things like that to Ji Sub?
I never curse in front of him.
Do you discriminate?
Not to Ji Sub.
Only to the people who I know I will get along with it.
Are you two very close...
- With Hye Jin? - Relatives?
- Are you related? - We aren't.
I don't think her "Hye" is the character for "grace".
- It is. - Oh, sorry.
(She can be cute.)
In Seok Jin's pre-taping interview,
when he found out that Hye Yeon would be on the show...
- Hye Yeon? - Yes.
He said, "Oh, that odd middle-aged lady?"
Really?
There goes your smart and sexy image.
He's a name-caller.
This isn't what I expected.
- The odd lady? - This is a huge twist.
- This is huge. - When I heard that...
Hye Yeon and Hye Jin would be on the same episode,
I said, "I met Hye Jin. Who's Hye Yeon?"
"Oh, the middle-aged lady." Then I realised my mistake and...
apologised. But your scriptwriter added the "odd" bit.
Did he not say that?
They say you did.
(She's hurt again.)
- I swear I didn't say it. - Okay.
I'd think "the middle-aged lady" is the part that stung more.
He thinks that's fine, but the "odd" part isn't.
Don't you like being odd?
- I like being called odd. - See?
- "The middle-aged lady"... - He knows little about women.
- I was never married. - He apologised for the wrong thing.
He admits to saying "middle-aged".
(He went from Mr Sexy Brain to Mr Name-caller.)
A lot of people know that Hye Jin is the first Korean model...
to grace the runways in Milan, Paris and New York.
- If I were to go into detail... - "The newest model"?
The first Korean model for G.
Name the brand.
- This is the trend. - What's that?
- People might not know. - What brand is G?
- Gu-something. - Gu-something.
You were the first Asian model in the finale of Anna S.'s show.
And then there's T.
- Tommy H.'s first Asian model. - Hilfiger?
Why did you mention Tommy and not Anna?
He didn't know Anna S is a brand.
- He thought it's a name. - It's a person's name.
Why don't you know these things?
A lot of people would like to ask something.
- Since Hye Jin is... - A world-class model.
She's a world-class model and we want to know more about that.
How much are you paid?
Is the pay much higher overseas?
The basic rate is different.
Do you make tens of thousands an hour?
Say a rookie runway model in Korea earns this much.
The bottom rate is a bit higher overseas.
- Even for rookies? - Yes.
Because getting picked is already...
- Yes, you're qualified. - My question is,
can you refuse a job based on how much they offer?
All the time.
If there's a show that I don't want to be part of,
I don't go to their casting. But if I do that, most of the time,
the designer calls to hire me.
If that happens, I demand double the rate.
(Everyone's surprised and impressed.)
I call double.
I don't want to do it anyway, so I can name any amount.
If the designer asks and the pay is 1,000, I ask for 3,000.
I ask for triple the usual pay.
I asked for that much hoping that they'd say no, but they said yes.
I had no choice but to force myself onto the stage.
- What? - You got paid triple.
Aren't there things you don't want to do regardless of money?
- I see. - Even for extra pay.
- What kind of clothes are they? - I wonder.
- What happened? - They pay extra and get bad press.
I'll give you an example.
Some brands or people give the models a hard time...
with the condition of the clothes or their procedures.
- Right. - They stick pins everywhere...
and force the model to put on the clothes.
Sometimes the pins end up pocking you.
You don't want to work for such inconsiderate people.
Hye Jin has been a model for 17 years,
and there's one shocking outfit that she once wore.
We have a photo of it.
"Hye Jin's most shocking outfit."
It's not that shocking. Listen.
- What is it? - Wait. Hold on.
- I've never seen anything like it. - I need to tell you something.
That photo shoot was for an actual editorial spread...
in a famous magazine in Korea.
It actually made it in the magazine.
- Okay. - That outfit was...
- designed by someone famous. - Okay.
- A famous designer. - Who?
- You know what photo it is, then. - The person who did the shoot...
Show us the photo already.
- I'm ready. - Let's see it.
- Hye Jin's... - It might not be that shocking.
What?
- It's the most... - He was shocked.
It's the most shocking outfit.
Let's take a look.
(Finally, he reveals the picture!)
This is her.
(Everyone is laughing.)
(Hye Jin is ecstatic.)
- This is her. Look at this. - My goodness.
(She looks like an egg.)
(She also looks like a punching bag.)
(She looks like a rocket, too.)
Comedians dress like this often.
- This is what comedians would wear. - Exactly.
- She didn't wear this to be funny. - She'd ask more money for this.
If she gets an offer again, she'd request triple model fee.
- That's what she meant. - Seriously.
- This is a good example. - That's shocking.
Are there pins inside of this?
(Are there pins inside of this garment?)
- That garment is... - It looks like the comedy costume.
- You can't get up once you fall. - Exactly.
When I arrived at the photo studio,
- I found that. - They didn't tell her.
- How do you eat in this outfit? - I saw it on the way...
and I kicked it saying, "What's this?"
(What on earth is this?)
I then walked into the studio.
Later, the staff brought it to me.
I want to buy one of this for Seo Jang Hoon...
so he can wear it in winter.
(He wants Jang Hoon to wear it in winter.)
- Seok Jin. - Yes?
Did you almost go on a date with Hye Jin?
- With me? - It's just that Lee Kyu Han...
once hosted a TV show with her. Right?
- Oh, right. It was about fashion. - One day, he called me.
He asked me if I wanted to meet her. Maybe it was via text.
Then I said she seemed to have a strong personality.
(Seok Jin refused to meet her.)
- She likes drinking. - She does?
- She likes beer. - I see.
You two could drink 10 litres of beer together.
- Right. - He said 10 litres.
- So... - She really likes beer.
What did Kyu Han say?
- He said she pretends to be strong. - I see.
I don't even try to look strong.
- He said she is very nice. - I am nice.
- He's happy that she likes beer. - He finally met her on Radio Star.
I didn't know how successful she was as a model.
I should have gone on a date with her.
(It makes Hye Jin's heart flutter.)
(Will there be a couple met on Radio Star?)
(I'm sorry that I didn't go out with you then.)
(It was because I look tough.)
- Hye Jin, what do you say? - It's like they're a couple now.
I can't go out with her. She is too tall.
- She's very tall. - Please let me change shoes.
(She wants to change her shoes.)
She chose very high heels for me today.
That's why many men can't approach fashion models.
- It's the biggest reason. - It's an obstacle.
In real life, she always wear sneakers or flat shoes.
But you chose high heels for her.
I didn't mean to get in between them.
I should bring her sneakers here.
You can wear them when you meet Seo Jang Hoon.
(You can wear high heels when you meet Seo Jang Hoon.)
When Seok Jin was in college,
he received a legendary grade...
that is even higher than an A plus for his assignment.
- Is that true? - We prepared his assignment paper.
That's amazing.
There are two pluses.
- Oh, my. - Really? Let me see.
- His professor probably wrote this. - Look at that.
- That's amazing. - He got higher grade than A plus.
- Was it graded by his professor? - It might have been a TA.
It's true that he got this grade anyway.
I think the professor was very generous.
- That's how your assignments were. - I don't understand anything.
- I see. - It's full of formulas and numbers.
- That's what science majors do. - I don't understand any of this.
- Let me see the last page. - We don't understand what it is.
He might have written something like "I love you" on the last page.
(He might have written "I love you" to the professor.)
- There's nothing else. - There's nothing else.
- Did the professor write anything? - No, he didn't.
What was your overall average grade?
I got about 3.8 points overall in that semester.
- That's very high. - I studied hard in that semester.
I got good grades. I think it was the time...
when I worked the hardest in my life.
- He said he'd change his image. - I forgot about that.
He prepared a lot.
(Now he looks even more intelligent.)
Let's talk about Ji Suk.
He is as intelligent as Seok Jin. He studied in the UK.
- Is that so? - Yes.
He was in a swimming race with Prince William every other week.
They were rivals. Did you swim with him alone?
No, it was a swimming competition.
- I thought so. - I went to a boarding school.
- I thought you two had swum alone. - Like close friends?
- It wasn't like that. - Did you often talk to him?
I would say, "Hi, Will."
- You called him "Will"? - Or "Nice game."
- "Nice game"? - Yes.
It means "Good job."
(Ji Suk sounds less confident.)
- Which school did you go to? - I went to Bradfield College.
- Did you ask about Prince William? - No.
It wasn't a school contest?
- No. - You just met him at the contest?
- You didn't go to the same school? - No.
- He went to Eton College. - They didn't go to the same school.
- You weren't close to him, right? - It was a local competition.
- I thought it was the same school. - Me, too.
Seriously.
- They didn't go to the same school. - My school was close to his.
- I get it now. - My school was near his school.
- It was like a swimming club. - Exactly.
There was a local swimming competition every other week.
- I was very surprised. - He always swam next to me...
doing breaststroke.
- We would greet each other. - Right next to you?
We knew who each other was. That's how I knew him.
- That's all, right? - That's all.
- That's it. - I thought it was the same school.
- We all thought that way. - Exactly.
- I wondered how he'd been admitted. - It's our job to dig up dirt.
(Radio Star is a programme to dig up the truth about rumours.)
(What is the truth about his relationship with Prince William?)
You didn't go to the same school. You met him in the competition.
- You met him 2 or 3 times, right? - No.
- I met him more than a dozen times. - Really?
- More than a dozen times? - I think he started exaggerating.
- More than a dozen times? - Yes.
- He met the prince a dozen times. - After the swimming competition,
- I had a meal with him as well. - Suddenly, you have more stories.
- You had a meal with him, too. - I remembered that suddenly.
(It crossed in his mind all of a sudden.)
Ji Suk is good at foreign languages. You have certificates...
- as an English and German teacher. - Is that true?
Yes, I majored in them.
- You're a qualified teacher, right? - Yes.
I had a teaching practice, too.
- In the UK? - No, not in the UK.
- In Korea? - Yes.
- If you speak German... - Hold on a second.
So you didn't get the certificates in the UK.
Did you obtain them in Korea?
- That's right. - Oh, I see.
(What's the truth about his teacher's certificates?)
- Why? What's wrong? - I thought he got them in the UK.
- You thought that as well, right? - Yes.
- He gives us a wrong impression. - I thought he got them in the UK.
- How else should I say that? - Excuse me.
- Didn't he graduated? - After I studied abroad,
- I continued to study in Korea. - He got the certificates in Korea?
- I can't believe this. - Then I achieved the certificates.
- I thought it happened in the UK. - What's wrong with that?
- I thought you got them in the UK. - You thought that as well, right?
- Didn't you two think that, too? - Yes.
- We were talking different things. - Exactly.
- I thought he was amazing. Gosh. - I thought he went to Germany, too.
(Gu Ra is disappointed.)
Ji Suk, while you were studying abroad,
you used to comfort yourself by reading the fax from your friend...
when you were lonely.
Back then, there weren't...
- many video clips I could get. - That's right.
- Adult novels were very popular. - Oh, right. Adult novels.
- I was in my adolescence. - Right.
I tried to find a way to...
(He's trying to find an appropriate expression for a TV show.)
- There weren't any materials. - To fulfil your desire?
(What are you talking about?)
- That's funny. - I tried to find a way...
- to stay healthy and positive. - I see.
When I moved to the UK, PCs weren't around back then.
- My close friend faxed me... - He faxed you?
late night.
- He faxed adult novels. - Adult novels?
The fax machine we had in our house was very old.
- It made a lot of noise. - I see.
It kept making a buzzing and beeping sound.
That must have felt weird.
- I was very nervous. - I get it.
- It might be printed badly. - I was supposed to be in bed.
I was afraid my parents might wake up.
- I even pulled the paper. - I tried that, too.
Sometimes, the letters were smudged because the ink wasn't dry enough.
Do you know Lee Se Young?
- She writes adult novels. - She's a writer.
- You've met her. - She was a guest on my show.
- "Saturday Night Live" in Korea? - Yes.
- Why don't you meet her? - She writes adult novels.
- Why would I meet her? - She can tell you stories.
- Exactly. - You can ask her to tell stories.
- She's very eloquent. - Is that so?
- She has an extensive vocabulary. - She once appeared on my show.
- We played as a couple. - Really?
- Yes. I held her in my arms. - Exactly.
You'll probably be the lead character in her new novel.
(He will be the lead character in Lee Se Young's new novel.)
Hye Yeon, since you are a celebrity stylist,
you get to see celebrities' naked bodies.
- I don't see them completely naked. - In their underwear?
- Yes. - Who has the best figure?
- Hye Jin does. - She talked about Hye Jin earlier.
She has an amazing body.
Her body is flawless.
(Hye Jin's body is perfect to an expert!)
- But she likes beer. - Exactly. After she drinks,
- she works out 3 or 4 times harder. - She works out hard.
Do celebrities with a nice body...
take clothes off confidently?
Because we're both women, you don't need to be embarrassed.
The female celebrities don't act shy when changing.
I try not to make eye contact with the celebrities at first...
to make them feel comfortable.
Do you mean you roll your eyes to avoid eye contact?
- Do you look up at the ceiling? - No, it's not like that.
- She makes her eyes out of focus. - I avoid staring...
at certain parts of their bodies.
- Please go on. - As a woman,
sometimes I become curious if they're real.
Sometimes I'm impressed by their bodies.
If I keep staring at them, it would be awkward.
- She swears when our eyes meet. - What happens then?
I do this to avoid making eye contact.
- Please show me again. - Like this.
Still, you can see their bodies.
- I made a lot of mistakes. - What kind of mistakes?
In fact, many women wear...
very tight skinny jeans these days.
Models have to change very quickly.
The fastest way to take off jeans is this.
While the model takes off her top,
- we pull her pants down. - I see.
- You can take them off quickly. - For women with large hips...
- it's harder to take them off. - That's right.
Because the jeans were very tight,
- the underwear fell off, too. - Goodness.
It happened a lot before. In order to prevent...
- a mistake like that... - He looks excited.
(Kyu Hyun looks excited.)
- How do you react? - I look around.
I say, "Put it back on. It fell off."
(Ji Suk looks excited, too.)
"Hold your underwear."
It happened so many times.
- Ji Suk looks excited. - I was thinking...
how the actress must have felt. She must have been baffled.
- The underwear fell off. - That's right.
She must have held on to it.
(She must have held on to it.)
(Don't picture it in your head!)
Hye Yeon is a successful celebrity stylist.
She styles WIP customers.
(What did you say?)
- You were too nervous... - He said "W".
- That's so funny. - It's VVIP.
It's VVIP.
He said WIP!
(Everyone bursts out laughing.)
- That's hilarious. - That was awesome.
What was that?
(We should get him reading glasses.)
- I can't believe him. - He keeps making us laugh.
- Two Vs make a W. - He's the best comedian ever.
"W" stands for "king" in Korean.
(It means a very important person like a king.)
You style VVIP customers...
- of high-end stores, right? - Really?
- It's a special service for them. - It's a special service.
I recommend a fashion style for the upcoming season.
I also help them order...
some products that haven't been imported yet.
We also hold small fashion shows for them.
At a fashion show of a famous brand with only 50 guests,
Sung Si Kyung and I performed once.
- I see. - We performed...
for those 50 people only.
- Really? - That's right.
(Jong Shin feels proud of himself.)
You don't suit the occasion.
- He does. - They loved me.
He's more suitable for an outlet mall.
(He doesn't suit high-end products.)
I once had a gig at an outlet mall, too.
(Jong Shin plays along with Gu Ra.)
Jong Shin, you performed in front of 50 people.
- That's a very small audience. - That's right.
For VVIP customers,
they often hold a special fashion show...
in a large high-end store.
The store is closed for the day.
There are more models than the VVIPs.
- That can happen. - There are more models.
For example, there were once only five customers...
while there were 10 models.
- They're very valuable customers. - Yes.
After we finished the fashion show...
Models don't know how many people will be in the audience.
Our job is to perform on the stage.
I asked the first model how many people were in the audience.
She said there were only four people.
- Sometimes they don't show up. - Wow.
Ji Suk.
You used to swim with a prince. Why are you so impressed?
(Why would you be so surprised?)
- They can afford anything, right? - Yes.
We hold a fashion show several times every two hours.
I went backstage to change,
and my garments were gone.
- It had already been sold? - Did someone buy it?
- Yes. - They bought them right there.
"I thought those were tens of thousands of dollars."
"Yes, someone just bought them."
Then, we have less garments to show on the stage.
- There are people like them. - It makes me think,
- "They live in a different world." - It's hard to believe.
(Everyone becomes quiet.)
- Suddenly... - Everyone became so quiet.
- Exactly. - Why?
- I feel sorry for myself. - Why do you feel bad?
- You're a successful entertainer. - What's the point of working hard?
- You shouldn't feel that way. - On my way home later,
- I should buy a lottery ticket. - Why would you do that?
- Or I should work at the store. - Your job is your lottery ticket.
You are so clueless.
(You are so clueless!)
In 2007, at a fashion show in Paris,
Hye Jin encountered the biggest crisis in her career.
We prepared a picture.
It was the biggest crisis in your life.
I will show you.
- Oh, this? - I remember that.
- Did you carry this on your back? - Yes.
Those are tungsten lightings connected with a steel pipe.
It might be inappropriate to say this, but it looks like...
- a stick to carry poop or water. - My goodness.
- I remember that. - Right.
I used to see people carrying it.
They must have been inspired by it.
- It was hard. - I like this.
- There was a speaker on that, too. - Really?
- To play music? - Yes.
Each of the models...
was given different garments, lights and music.
It seems that the lamp is...
(Ta-da)
They look so funny together.
(The toughest jobs for a model)
We have more pictures to show you.
These are the pictures of a shocking fashion show...
that Hye Jin wants to be on.
- Look at this picture. - Goodness.
- Wow. - What's that?
- That's two people. - It's Rick Owens' fashion show.
She wants to try this.
They actually did that on the runway.
(Ji Suk's jaw drops.)
Which one of them do you want to be?
The one who is standing.
- Her? - Yes.
I'll show you another picture.
(An extreme job)
Which one of them do you want to be?
- The standing one. - I see.
I don't want to look ugly.
It looks like she's choking the other one.
(They look like they're wrestling.)
Are you going to try this today?
How does she do that here?
Do you want to do this with Hye Yeon?
(Is she challenging Hye Yeon?)
I don't think it will work because she's much taller.
I suggested...
that Gu Ra and Gook Jin try it together.
- Me and Gook Jin? - Yes.
- Let's give it a try. - You should hang on his shoulders.
- He wants to give it a try. - Let's give it a go.
- Come on. Let's try it. - How could they do that?
Gook Jin, you can just hang on my shoulders.
- He's bringing the mat. - Really?
- Come out, Gook Jin. - They're really doing it.
He should hang on your shoulders.
Which one of these will you copy?
- We'll try this one. - This?
Gook Jin needs to show his face, too.
This must be what the models did backstage.
"Hang your legs on my shoulders."
- "Stop whining." - Okay.
- "I don't want to do this, either."
You can stand up now.
(Gook Jin starts choking Gu Ra.)
Oh, dear.
Stand up.
- Oh, no. - Stand up.
- My goodness. - He should watch his head.
(It's like Gu Ra is about to lose a wrestling match.)
- Help them. - Are you okay?
Okay. Let go.
(They give a standing ovation.)
(Gu Ra and Gook Jin are combined.)
Oh, no, my shirt.
- Let me help you. - They're like a combined robot.
You should hold this.
Start walking.
Hold it. Gook Jin, stretch out your arms.
- Stretch out your arms. - Okay, go.
- No way. - I'm walking.
This is how they walked.
- Like this. - My goodness.
(Gu Ra walks with confidence.)
(The audience is cheering.)
- Like this. - Please put me down.
This is how they walked.
- Like this. - My goodness.
(They wrap up the runway.)
That was unbelievable.
(They gave their all for this performance.)
That was amazing.
- Seok Jin. - Yes?
One of our crew members gave us information.
- According to the crew member, - Yes.
- on March 30th last year... - March 30th?
It was on Wednesday around 6pm.
You were spotted in cafe "M" in Cheongdam-dong...
with a very beautiful woman.
You were enjoying coffee and dessert that the woman bought for you.
- Did you say March 30th? - Yes.
Give me a second. March 30th?
The end of March.
- You were in cafe "M". - In Cheongdam-dong.
Was he with her alone?
- They were on the upper floor. - On the upper floor?
(He must remember it now.)
Do you remember it?
It seems to be true.
- I can't believe you. - They're unbelievable.
So it's true.
(I can't believe they found out about that.)
- It was probably a coincidence. - Judging by Seok Jin's expression,
he liked the woman he was with then.
She's just a friend.
- She's just a friend. - No way.
- Everybody says that.
- It's true. I told about that. - About what?
I told you the next day on the set.
What did you say to me?
I said I would arrange a meeting.
(Seok Jin promised to arrange a meeting.)
- Were you going to introduce her... - A meeting with Ji Suk?
- to Ji Suk? - It wasn't like that.
I just said that I would bring her to our get-together with the crew...
so we could have fun together.
- I was inviting her on that day. - I see.
Our crew members were having a meeting with Tak Jae Hoon...
when they saw you by accident.
- You two looked more than friends. - We are friends.
- We are just friends. - We wanted to hear what happened.
- They're amazing. - So she's not your girlfriend?
- No, she's not. - Did she accept your invitation?
They haven't met each other yet.
Will there be Jun Hyun Moo as well?
- He wants to join us. - You shouldn't let him.
But he is a very busy man.
- Also, she doesn't seem very... - You shouldn't let him join you.
enthusiastic to meet Hyun Moo.
- That's so funny. - She likes Hyun Moo as a fan.
- She doesn't want him to be there. - You shouldn't let him.
The ladies really wanted to meet Ji Suk.
(The ladies wanted Ji Suk to be there.)
(Ji Suk acts cute.)
Ji Suk responded positively, too.
(Ji Suk was happy about it, too.)
I went for a drink with Seok Jin and a few ladies a few times.
- A few times? - What is he going to say?
He is good-looking and very attractive,
- but he's too honest. - I see.
I saw him doing some things that women don't like.
- What kind of things? - Really?
Unlike his appearance, he acts very tough.
Normally, men do this after drinking.
(This is how men normally do.)
- This is how we do. He's like this. - Yes.
(Seok Jin screams after drinking.)
- He screams loudly. - When he drinks beer?
- Not just beer. - Then soju?
Regardless of the type of alcohol,
- he screams like that. - Why would he do that?
- Why? - He drinks and screams.
(Whenever he drinks alcohol, he screams loudly.)
(Screaming)
- What was that? - He really does that.
- He screams all of a sudden. - He's cute.
You shouldn't drink with him.
- I was startled. - I think that's charming.
Was he sober?
- I do that when I'm tipsy. - He was a bit tipsy.
- That's understandable. - I do that...
to feel even more excited when I'm getting tipsy.
Why would he scream like that?
- He gets excited. - While he was talking...
calmly and quietly,
"Let's toast. Drink it up."
"Why don't you drink it?" "I already drank it."
"When you drink with me, empty your glass!"
(He screams again.)
"Empty your glass!"
So I was...
- He's a macho man. - I was...
- so scared. I drank it up. - My goodness.
- I see. - Were you angry?
- No, when I drink... - You got angry...
and screamed like this.
- Everyone was shy and awkward. - You know...
- He tried to break the ice. - I did it...
to break the ice. I didn't mind being funny.
- It was good for me. - I don't do that always.
The ladies came up to me to consult.
(All the ladies talked to Ji Suk.)
"What is wrong with Seok Jin?"
(It turned out to be good for Ji Suk, not Seok Jin.)
Seok Jin, you have a love story...
- with a flight attendant. - That story again?
- My goodness. - The story was very...
- I heard that story five times. - Me, too.
- You are so honest. - Have you heard of it before?
Seok Jin has something to straighten out about the story.
We were talking on a TV show...
about the ways flight attendants handle emergency situations.
The host asked us to demonstrate.
Many male celebrities go out with flight attendants.
So I asked, "Haven't we all dated a flight attendant?
Their facial expressions completely changed.
- I see. - They denied it and said,
"No, we haven't."
Then they turned to me and said, "You have dated a flight attendant."
I didn't see the need to deny it, so I admitted that I have.
I became well-known as a celebrity who has dated a flight attendant.
- That is ridiculous. - When I asked them in private...
if they really haven't dated a flight attendant in their lives,
I learned that all of them have recently.
- My goodness. - Who were those people?
- Kim Ji Suk, Jun Hyun Moo... - My goodness.
Stop it. Stop it.
The information is spilling out.
- He is giving us the information. - It is finally spilling out.
Flight attendants apparently laughed when Seok Jin got on the flight.
- My goodness. - They laughed.
- They didn't exactly laugh. - It made him uncomfortable.
- Of course it did. - Their eyes are on you.
- It's only a job. - You're right.
- It's only a job. - Flight attendants should be...
- treated as individuals. - Ji Suk, have you met one lately?
- Lately... - Can you say you haven't?
- Let him talk. - Can you say you haven't?
- Have you dated one? - I'll need to have a meeting.
I am sure Kyu Hyun would understand.
- Male celebrities... - Why Kyu Hyun?
- Why me? - He goes for non-celebrities.
- Really? - It's a widespread belief.
There are a lot of opportunities to meet flight attendants.
When you have female friends,
they are bound to have friends who are flight attendants.
He is so brave.
What's wrong with speaking of past relationships?
- Ji Suk called him brave! - There's nothing wrong with it.
- He is really cool. - No, I am here to explain myself.
- What's so cool about him? - I think it's cool...
- that you are explaining yourself. - I want to be Seok Jin's friend.
- Why? - He didn't say anything wrong.
I think you are amazing.
It's all in the past.
- It happened 6 to 7 years ago. - You are my hero.
This surprised me because Seok Jin doesn't look like it.
I heard that he plays hard to get under the law of supply and demand.
You don't strike me as someone who'd do that.
Do you play hard to get when you meet a woman?
I wouldn't call it playing hard to get.
I do that with my male friends, too.
I just avoid giving or taking blindly...
when I became close with someone.
- You need time. - The reverse also holds true.
I grow uncomfortable when someone is overly nice to me.
- You find it burdensome. - I don't want to...
take things for granted.
I try to stay objective.
- Park Na Rae texted me today. - What did she say?
She told me that her mother...
really wants to send me abalones and small octopuses.
I realised that it wouldn't do to refuse her mother's wish.
I decided to accept the gift.
However, since I didn't want the good seafood to go to waste,
I asked her to have it sent to my mother's place.
Then she will enjoy it and send me home-cooked dishes.
What does this have to do with Seok Jin's story?
- It's just that... - It's a completely different story.
I understand what Seok Jin means.
He supplies us with these stories when none of us are interested.
There is no demand for such stories.
- There are too many supplies. - There is no demand, okay?
You are ruining the balance between supply and demand.
You became a skilled MC.
Seok Jin, I heard that you are friends with your fans.
Yes, I meet up with them often. We frequently have get-togethers.
I heard that you have Lee Jin Uk drive you after get-togethers.
- What? - Is Jin Uk around his age?
- We are talking about the actor. - How do you know this?
- A fan told us. - Gosh, I am impressed.
No one knows that story.
- You used him as a chauffeur. - Lee Jin Uk, the actor.
I didn't use him as a chauffeur. After a community service with fans,
- we went to... - You do community service.
have dinner and some drinks.
I drink often with my fans. I have known them for years.
What is the name of the fan club?
Treasure Chest.
(Treasure Chest)
Is the scriptwriter Im Sung Han in the club, too?
My real name, Bo Suk means treasure.
- I see. - That's where the name comes from.
- Bo Suk. - Treasure Chest.
- Go on with your story. - Anyway,
my fans and I get together a lot. Jin Uk and I often meet up...
when we don't have work, too.
He doesn't drink.
- Jin Uk doesn't? - He doesn't drink or smoke.
When the meeting coincides,
Jin Uk waits for me.
- He is nice. - They must be very close.
There isn't much of a story.
There isn't, yet.
Perhaps you got very drunk and gave Jin Uk money...
because you mistook him for a chauffeur.
- I can't change the past. - All right.
All right.
Don't force stories on our guests.
People like Kyung Hwan or Sae Ho would have gone along with it.
They would have even said that they hit Jin Uk's head.
(Stories are best told with small lies.)
You said that you wouldn't date a fellow actress,
but you are not against dating a fan.
- I think it can happen. - Dating a fan?
- Yes. - Do you say that for your fans?
It's necessary to keep their fantasies alive.
- That's what the fans want. - For a fan meeting one time,
I once had about 100 of my fans dress up.
I dressed up as well and visited each table.
- Really? - It's a unique fan meeting.
Many singers drink with their fans and stay close.
There are two ways. You either keep a distance...
- or stay close. - I stay close.
- You stay very close to your fans. - When I receive a letter...
that contains a fan's phone number, I sometimes give them a call.
- Really? - I don't let my number show.
"Hello? Who is this?" "It's me, Ji Suk."
- I fulfil their fantasies. - It's not much of a fantasy.
- I fulfil their needs. - Needs?
If they want me, they can have me.
- It would be nice to be his fan. - How interesting!
Don't they think it's a prank call?
They know my voice.
"I just read your letter. I called because I am making noodles..."
- "and can spare three minutes." - They won't be able to resist him.
The aftermath will be interesting when this show airs.
- You will get a lot of new fans. - That's right.
Let's go, Treasure Chest!
(Ji Suk is love.)
Ji Suk, your real name is Bo Suk.
I heard that it wasn't always Bo Suk.
My father was named On Yang since he was born at Onyang Hot Spring.
His brother was named Jang Chung since he was born in Jangchung-dong.
His oldest brother was named Buk Gyeong after Beijing.
My brother was named Shin Sa because he was born in Shinsa-dong.
- Really? - I am the second child.
When I was born two years later on Easter,
he named me Boo Hwal which means Easter in Korean.
My grandfather was a freedom fighter who had lived in Beijing.
He named his children after the regions they were in.
- He used regions as the names. - My cousin's name...
is London because he was born in London.
- Really? - He was named London.
Yes, it's London Kim.
Is anyone named Kim Paris?
Kim Paris? No, no one was born in Paris.
- Paris. - Pronounce it right.
- No one is named Paris. - How about Washington?
- My goodness. - Those names are fine,
but what would have happened if a child was born in Buenos Aires?
- Kim Bue. - The name would be Kim Bue.
- Kim Bue. - Kim Bue.
- It's fun to use regions as names.
Someone born in Ulaanbaatar would be Kim Ulaan.
(Kim Ulaan)
Hye Yeon, you picked Ha Jung Woo as a celebrity you want to style.
- Yes. - A misunderstanding is in the way.
Stylists sometimes get a lot of offers at the same time.
When I have customers I am already working with,
I have to turn down new offers no matter how much I want to do it.
I have always wanted to work with Ha Jung Woo.
I have only styled him once for a commercial.
I once got an offer to style him.
I really wanted to do it, but it was on a very short notice.
Styling a celebrity takes time,
and I was working on a drama at the time.
I told them that I would really like to style Ha Jung Woo in the future,
but they never called me after that.
I want to clear up any misunderstanding.
- You really wanted to style him. - That's right.
Speaking of Ha Jung Woo,
let's end the story with Ji Suk's voice imitation of him.
Accept her apology in his voice.
This is ridiculous.
- Accept her apology. - Jung Woo has...
- a unique way of speaking. - That's right.
He has a deep voice and he pauses between words.
I can sound a bit stern, but...
I would like to tell her...
that I think of her like my daughter.
This is how he speaks to me.
Ji Suk, it has been a while.
- He sounds like Ha Jung Woo. - He sounds exactly the same.
Hye Yeon, you turned down...
the chance to style me.
- My goodness. - It hurt my feelings a bit.
- Anyway, good luck. - His voice imitation is improving.
(He sounds exactly like him.)
- He sounds just like him. - He's good.
He sounded exactly like Jung Woo.
- I know. - It was amazing.
I want you to style me so that I look manly.
- Gosh, you sound just like him. - He is good at this.
Ji Suk sounds just like him.
- He has mastered the trick. - It gets better with time, too.
He is the treasure of variety shows.
- Hye Yeon. - Yes.
You style top celebrities...
and is nicknamed "Superstar Stylist".
- Superstar Stylist. - That's her nickname.
Why do top celebrities seek your help?
- First of all... - Do you give them a discount?
- It's expensive to hire her. - Tell us.
We are curious. Do you give them a discount?
The most important thing is talent.
They wouldn't use a stylist who isn't talented.
There is a stylist named Kim Woo Ri.
- That's right. - How do you know him?
He is my junior.
- I have seniority by many years. - I see.
Does being compared to him displease you?
- It seems that way. - It doesn't fill me with joy.
Was I being rude?
You compared her to her junior stylist.
You have done it in the past, too.
The viewers may not be familiar with stylists.
One time, I asked Park Seung Gun this question.
To me, Park Seung Gun and Hwang Ze Quun...
look similar except for different hairstyles.
I asked him which one of them is on a higher level.
- He was very displeased. - Hwang Ze Quun was?
- No, Park Seung Gun was. - Park Seung Gun was.
Then I asked the same question to Hwang Ze Quun.
When I told him about Seung Gun's reaction, he became displeased, too.
Of course, he did.
Gu Ra is the bearer of displeasure.
He makes people displeased with needless information.
- I only deliver the facts. - He is the bearer of displeasure.
(I am sorry if I have offended you.)
While Ze Quun was displeased, he admitted his defeat.
He said it's true...
that Seung Gun is more popular. He admitted it.
- Really? - Yes.
I am not on bad terms with Kim Woo Ri.
We can't say which one of us is better...
because we don't work in the same field.
- You have different styles. - That's right.
The four MCs were styled today...
by their own stylists.
- That's right. - How do you judge our outfits?
Isn't this yours?
(He is taken aback.)
I used to wear this shirt when I was a senior in high school.
- I am dressed like Young Rok. - Seriously.
- It's retro. - It looks like yours.
The writers asked me...
which MC dresses the best.
I answered it's Jong Shin without hesitation.
- That was my answer. - He dressed well.
- My stylist is the best. - You see,
without going overboard,
- he wears unique looks. - I think he went overboard today.
- No, I didn't. - On the internet...
You feel that way because my hair is curled.
A lot of people say Jong Shin's stylist should get an award.
- What about Gu Ra's looks? - Tell us what you think.
I first met him at a different programme.
I was surprised by his height.
If he works out,
he will get monster shoulders.
I didn't mean to speak so informally.
Your shoulders are impressive, too.
- I will try to speak with class. - What about his shoulders?
(She is used to speaking informally.)
I am used to speaking in that way.
- What about his shoulders? - He has...
broad shoulders and long legs.
- He is well-built. - Here is what I think.
Since he is prone to giving criticism,
wearing a hat or glasses will soften his image.
Glasses only make him look scarier.
Put them on. He looks funny when he wears glasses.
Really?
(He looks like an old man.)
What about Kyu Hyun?
I don't have much to say. People say that...
a handsome face completes the fashion.
- His face and body are beautiful. - He is an idol singer.
Since he is equipped with good looks,
- I don't have a suggestion. - You should know that...
Kyu Hyun does not really have...
a nice body. He isn't very tall,
- and his legs are short. - What's most important is...
I spoke truthfully. My legs are longer than yours!
- My legs are longer than yours! - My pelvis is up here.
- Your legs look similar in length. - My legs are longer than yours.
- My pelvis is up here. - My legs are definitely longer.
- You are 7cm taller than me. - No, I am not.
Is there a machine that measures the length of one's legs?
It can measure the distance from the floor to the groin.
- You won't be able to move away. - Men's measures would be shorter.
(Men's measures would be shorter.)
- Hye Jin is called, "Pose Robot". - Me?
I found an impressive pose in her photo shoot.
All right.
Is this "Gangnam Style"?
(Hye Jin's version of "Gangnam Style")
I must have jumped 500 times for that shot.
- Where was this taken? - In Peru.
It's a square in Peru.
There were about 200 onlookers.
- They were watching. - It can't be helped.
Peruvians looked at me like, "What is she doing?"
- Let's see the next one. - All right.
(The next second picture is shocking.)
- My goodness. - Look at her face.
(She screams like a dolphin.)
- She looks so fierce. - My goodness.
- Look at her legs. - When was this taken?
This is your right leg, right?
- My goodness. - This is a good shot.
- Is this your right leg? - It's confusing.
Let's have a quiz. Is this Hye Jin's right leg or left leg?
- It's her left leg. - Who thinks it's her right leg?
You want to know which leg that is.
This is her right leg. She is posing like this.
- Wrong! - It's hard to tell.
If it's her left leg, that will mean she poses like this.
- It's possible. - I did pose like that.
- It's her left leg. Look. - Isn't this how she posed?
- No. - No.
- Is this how she posed?
- Yes, it is. - It just looks strange.
- Give us a demonstration. - Well...
This is just weird. It has to be her right leg.
Give us a demonstration.
When models pose,
we can either close our legs...
- or open them. - She opened her legs in this one.
Opening our legs makes them look longer,
and closing them makes them look shorter.
I think I opened my legs for that shoot.
Closing the legs does bring more energy to the shot.
This is her right leg.
Wrong!
(Gu Ra is eliminated.)
- My goodness. - Where is that from?
She is posing like the ghost from "The Ring".
- The pose looks difficult. - The thing is,
poses like that come out...
- when I run out of ideas. - Do you move that way?
- No, I don't. - That would be ridiculous.
- What is she, a crab? - A crab.
At first, I was posing like this.
Then came that pose.
It's an ad-lib.
- I strike every pose I can imagine. - It's an ad-lib.
- It's one among many poses. - That's right.
It looks better in this angle.
- Let's turn it upright. - Like this?
- What is that? - She looks like a bat.
- A bat.
She is supporting the ceiling.
She looks like a ninja on the ceiling.
(There is a ninja.)
- Hye Jin, - Yes?
you have an embarrassing past despite being a top model.
We have already seen a few.
You have filmed a commercial...
- for the coffee of the netherworld. - For goodness' sake.
How did you find it?
You didn't tell me about it.
- They keep showing her works. - She got angry.
Calm down.
(She becomes confrontational unintentionally.)
I brought a cardboard.
It's a commercial for coffee of the netherworld.
- What does that even mean? - Let's see it.
What is that?
(Their eyes are bulging.)
This is Hye Jin.
I have never seen it up-close. May I take a look?
- All right. - Who is this?
He must be a model, too.
I learned about his identity lately. Do you know who he is?
- Who is he? - It's Jerome.
- This is unbelievable. - Jerome?
It is really Jerome.
- He was the hottest model. - You are right.
- Hye Jin is over here. - She looks like the Death.
- I don't remember when it was shot. - Do you represent the dead souls?
I mean...
(Do you represent the dead souls?)
The coffee must taste like the land of the dead.
It tasted like coffee in the land of the living.
(Hye Jin is so easy-going.)
- Seok Jin, - Yes?
you fed milk to a young when you were in the military.
Does that mean you breastfed a child?
- In a sense, yes. - What?
I was in the combat police division.
The police station I was at...
had a dog, and it got hit...
by a car and died.
Since it died two weeks after giving birth,
someone had to feed the puppies.
We fed them milk using a bottle,
but one of them wouldn't drink.
One of my superiors was downright evil,
but he loved puppies.
- He loves animals. - He is nice to animals.
He asked for four young recruits.
Being the youngest, I was in the group.
He told us to take off our clothes.
- My goodness. - I was wearing combat gear,
so I unzipped the top.
I wasn't wearing anything underneath. He called us over,
got started with the highest rank. He put the puppy...
by the nipple and dripped milk on it.
I see.
The puppy didn't drink the milk.
I waited for my turn...
and unzipped my combat gear.
(It was Seok Jin's turn.)
However, the puppy sucked on my nipple.
My goodness.
- Oh, my. - How interesting!
Because of that, I became the puppy's nursemaid.
I fed it milk for about a week or two.
- You saved its life. - I would enter the room and say,
"Private Ha Seok Jin, reporting to feed the puppy."
Then, I would unzip my uniform.
You did that to feed the puppy.
I breastfed the puppy.
After a week, it began to drink milk from the bottle.
It's a touching story.
I am sure it was a happy week for the puppy.
(He is a man with a big heart.)
Seok Jin is well-known to love beer and clubs.
- I see. - He once spread misinformation...
because he was mortified about hurting his leg in a club.
This is an excerpt from an article released on May 23, 2007.
It's on the stage greeting for "Unstoppable Marriage".
Ha Seok Jin gave a stage greeting at a theatre in Gyeonggi Province.
He tripped over and hurt his right foot during the event.
Despite his agency's dissuasion,
Ha Seok Jin insisted on keeping his promise to his fans.
"I am determined to go to stage greetings with crutches..."
"until the movie garners 2 million views,"
- he said in a jovial manner. - A jovial manner.
He said it in a jovial manner.
- You hurt your leg in the club. - It happened at a club, right?
I was drinking with Chae Moo, a co-star in the movie.
- Did you go to the club with him? - No.
- They drank together. - We drank after the stage greeting.
He can hold his liquor.
- That's right. - He is a heavy drinker.
- We drank soju with big glasses. - He does that.
When I got home, I got very drunk.
A friend called and took me to the club.
Since I was already drunk,
I got on the stage.
It must have been a mess.
(Did you scream like this?)
- I didn't need to do it. - I wish I could show it to you.
- I can't imitate it correctly. - I think I've figured him out now.
I have a rough idea.
My foot got stuck between the stage and the wall,
and I ended up getting cellulitis.
(Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the skin.)
- I see. - My goodness.
I am not proud of it.
- He is manly. - He is a tough guy, right?
- He is a tough guy. - He is a tough guy.
Seok Jin is indeed manly.
He has a drinking habit I am sure women won't like.
When he gets drunk, he apparently blows...
the traffic cone like it is a vuvuzela.
How does he do that?
- Is that even possible? - Here comes the traffic cone.
- It must be very heavy. - Really?
- How will he blow it? - My goodness.
- How will he blow it? - It's a traffic cone.
I didn't know this would get brought up.
(I didn't know traffic cones and my drunkenness would be connected.)
How?
- How does he blow it? - Does it make a sound?
It's really loud.
You must have blown it a lot.
Can you do it now?
I should've taken that for the South Africa World Cup.
- That's amazing. - It's amazing.
I used to get drunk and scream.
I can't believe we're about to see this.
(He blows loudly.)
(The loud noise fills the entire studio.)
Then...
they said I would yell.
That's incredible.
Were the police called?
When I blew the traffic cone,
someone called the police.
- Was it because of the noise? - Yes.
- For the excessive noise? - A police car stopped.
He asked me to stop.
He asked me why I was making so much noise...
when I'm a recognisable person.
I apologised.
I stopped doing it,
but a while ago,
I did it again.
How are you when you go clubbing?
Are you a good dancer?
Ji Suk used to be a singer.
- I try to become one with the club. - Really?
Can you dance for us?
- Play some music. - Dance?
- Play some music. - This isn't a club.
- Go dance, Seok Jin and Ji Suk. - I'm a bad dancer.
- Go ahead. - Show us,
- Ji Suk. - Go up together.
We'll blow the cone for you.
I want to try it.
Dance next to the traffic cone.
(He blows with all his strength.)
I can't do it.
- I can't do it. - I thought it wouldn't work.
- It doesn't work. - Give me that.
(Gu Ra goes on the attack.)
(He blows on his head.)
It's loud.
- It doesn't work. - I can't do it either.
I can't do it.
- I can't. - I can't do it.
How does he do it?
How does he blow it?
My goodness.
(Why are you smelling it?)
- Go ahead. - Get ready.
(It's show time.)
Pretend it's a club.
- Here goes Ji Suk. - Oh, my.
(He gets in the groove.)
Look at him.
(They're clubbers on fire.)
(His dance skills haven't gotten rusty.)
He's a good dancer.
- Now, it's Seok Jin's turn. - He's a good dancer.
I get drunk...
and blow on this.
(He yells and blows.)
(It sounds similar to a vuvuzela.)
He's so good at doing that.
(He powers up.)
(It's the mark of a clubber.)
Ji Suk, were you a regular on variety shows when you debuted?
- Yes, I was. - That's right.
Were you a part of Shin Jung Hwan's line?
If I had to pick,
- I'd say I was in Kang Ho Dong's. - I see.
- Was your nickname, "Weak Boy?" - Yes.
I heard that stressed you out.
I wasn't stressed.
I was a new actor so...
the fact I had a nickname was interesting at first.
(Ji Suk has a female partner on his back.)
(He falls over.)
(It's a merciless match.)
(He falls over.)
(It's over as soon as it begins.)
(They burst out laughing.)
(Chae Yeon and Kim Jong Kook)
(It's proof that he earned his nickname.)
As a new actor,
I had to win first or second place...
or be really funny to be on camera.
I did my best.
I had to come in first so I wouldn't be edited out.
I wasn't feeling well that day.
I had my partner on my back,
and I fell down while running.
I guess that was really funny.
After that, Ho Dong kept telling me...
to fall down when I run.
"Ji Suk, fall down!"
So I fell down on purpose.
You can finally tell the truth.
Now, I can.
When I got the nickname, "Weak Boy"...
I'm actually not weak at all.
It must have been tough afterward.
I was filming a morning drama at that time.
While filming an emotional scene,
elementary students would walk by and call out,
"It's Weak Boy!"
Were you that popular?
(He's sheepish.)
Ji Suk,
when Kyu Hyun was on "Problematic Men" a while back,
did that episode have the lowest ratings ever?
- Oh, no. - I didn't know that would happen.
That's what happened.
It was unexpected. The show was great.
- Did it get the lowest ratings? - The show was great.
- It was the second-lowest. - That's the same thing.
Tae Min had the lowest ratings ever.
They were considering cancelling the show.
- Tae Min? - Yes.
SM Entertainment had the lowest ratings?
It was rare that the ratings were below two percent.
It was the first time in a while.
The content of the show was great, though.
(He won't believe it until he confirms it himself.)
It wouldn't matter if the show was good.
He was great at giving answers, but strangely on that day...
- The ratings are lower these days. - It had the lowest ratings ever.
It got lower after that episode.
Really?
- You started it. - After I appeared?
(Kyu Hyun brings the ratings down.)
That's unbelievable.
- You did great. - You really did.
You were funny, too.
It's too bad.
- There's nothing you can do. - It's a mystery.
We expected it.
(Kyu Hyun is perfect as a Radio Star MC.)
Hye Yeon, did you want to appear on Radio Star with Sung Si Kyung?
- Yes. - Hye Jin, aren't you...
good friends with him?
We were on a programme together.
There were rumours about you and Si Kyung.
No, there weren't.
- People thought you two dated. - Really?
What do you think of Si Kyung?
He's a good guy with charisma.
Are you interested in him as a man?
The person who wants to meet him...
- is Hye Yeon. - We asked Hye Yeon,
but the questions turned to Hye Jin instead.
- What's going on? - Hye Yeon wants to meet Si Kyung.
Why did it turn out like this?
This is frustrating.
Why do you like Si Kyung, Hye Yeon?
- He's a good singer. - Do you love him?
(Asking out of the blue)
Say you love him.
I really love him.
(She does as she's told.)
- Do you love him? - I got caught up.
He sings really well.
He's the type who is pleasantly plump and funny.
Is he your ideal type?
I think Jang Hoon is your ideal type.
- It's Jang Hoon. - It's him.
Jang Hoon is handsome, too.
- Really? - Yes, he is.
Jang Hoon is charismatic.
- He's funny. - You were the one...
who brought up Jang Hoon.
Why were you surprised that she likes him?
He doesn't like it when Jang Hoon gets compliments.
It's been a while.
(He looks over his script.)
We have an MC witness report.
An MC witness report? It must be about me.
- Nobody has seen me. - What is it?
Kwon Eun Ji sent in the report.
That's why it's not in my script.
- What is it? - "Last December,"
It's really embarrassing.
"on the evening of December 28th..."
"at a restaurant near Noksapyeong Station,"
"Jong Shin was on a date with his wife."
"I was sitting at the table behind him."
"While eating,"
"Jong Shin took a sip of wine."
"He said that the wine was possessed.'"
Possessed?
"I think he was referring to the acidity."
"His wife asked him what he was talking about."
"She scolded him that he should've said acidity instead."
- Really? - "Was Jong Shin's red wine..."
"really possessed?"
That's cute.
Who knows? Some wine could be possessed.
Those types of vintage wines exist.
Are there?
I held a gut ritual that day.
- He did a gut ritual? - It's like a sitcom.
- It drives me crazy. - Your life is like a sitcom.
It's so funny.
I asked them to bring me a knife.
For the gut ritual?
I felt something while I was drinking.
(Jong Shin's jokes are possessed.)
You are watching a high-end music programme, Radio Star.
Today's show features cool and charismatic guests.
Our hearts are refreshed...
when we listen to these songs.
Let's hear Seok Jin's song first.
(What song did Seok Jin select?)
It's a manly song.
It's full of machismo.
It makes you feel completely drunk.
It's a drunken feeling.
It's alcohol again.
It's a drunken feeling.
Why did you select this song?
It was when I was in the military.
I was standing under a street lamp in front of the military base.
This song started playing on the radio.
I thought it would fit with today's theme.
Hye Jin,
when you're driving or your manager is driving,
do you roll down the window and curse?
Oh, my goodness.
- What's with that? - I know what he means.
Do you roll down the window and curse?
What I don't understand is...
there's a lot of valet parking in Gangnam and Cheongdam-dong,
but people get out of their cars and go before the attendant comes.
- The cars line up behind them. - Right.
It makes me so angry.
How can they just leave their cars and go like that?
I don't understand that.
- The cars line up behind them? - Yes.
That tends to happen on small side streets.
I open up...
the sunroof.
I stand up and yell,
"Move your car!"
Everyone stares at me because...
I'm yelling without wearing sunglasses.
My manager says,
"Please sit down and close the sunroof."
- Your manager? - Yes.
You have a hot temper.
When you have kids,
you should volunteer on the mothers' traffic association.
(I'll protect the children.)
- Seok Jin will sing... - I'm looking forward to it.
Let's listen to "Bravo, My Life".
It's "Bravo, My Life."
(He bows.)
I'm not a good singer.
(While the sun goes down)
I missed it.
Start singing.
(I start to walk home)
(Shy)
(He seemed like a perfect engineering student.)
(They're frozen with their mouths open at his lack of skill.)
(It's not that good)
(It's not that bad either)
(He sounds worse now.)
(He's completely off-beat.)
(I struggle from time to time)
(There are tough things in life)
(The ending is weak.)
(Where I'm headed is the right path)
(He tries to figure out the beat.)
(Bravo, bravo)
(He misses every single beat.)
(For the sake of your courage)
(I'll finish well.)
(My life)
(His voice cracks as he hits the high note.)
(For the sake of our bright future)
(He sings his heart out to the end.)
That was great.
That was funny.
That was very manly.
- What a man. - He's very manly.
Have there only been good singers on the show so far?
- Oh, no. - You're full of charisma.
Most people like him wouldn't sing.
- That's Seok Jin's charm. - That was amazing.
That was so cool.
Let's hear Hye Yeon sing this time.
This song is tough.
- Are you a good singer? - No, I'm not.
- I'm not sure if I can say this, - Yes?
but you look a bit like Ozzy Osbourne.
Ozzy Osbourne?
What?
She reminds me of a rocker.
- Ozzy Osbourne? - But...
It will be better not to look him up.
She resembles him.
Does she?
I don't look anything like him.
Is it just me?
- I'm sorry. - Someone told me...
it's better to sing a loud song.
"Lonely Night" is so unexpected.
I think it's better to sing an exciting song...
when you're feeling down.
Are you a part of the campaign to drive the same car for 10 years?
Are you driving the same car since 2002?
- What kind of car do you drive? - I...
- drive a Korean car. - I see.
I don't really care about cars.
It's just a means of transportation.
Even when I'm in a really nice car, the things in my car...
are more important than the car itself.
Was your car stolen once?
I was shooting for a magazine's lifestyle section.
We were travelling extensively for the shoot.
We had golfing and fishing gear...
to fit the look of the shoot.
We were coming back to Seoul from a remote location.
I think I needed to change the engine oil.
Smoke started to rise from the car.
I left my car at a mechanic shop nearby.
They told me to leave the car there and go home.
When I came back for it, they told me that my boyfriend had taken it.
I had so much stuff in the car. There was no way to...
- move it all into a taxi. - You must've had a lot of stuff.
They were after those things instead of the car.
- They took the entire car. - That's what they were after.
- They were after your things. - Right.
I asked, "What boyfriend?"
- It was crazy. - Did you have a boyfriend then?
No, I didn't. That's why I knew immediately.
(Hye Yeon has a cool response.)
What happened?
The car was left in a remote area.
They found it after a week.
I was able to get my car back.
Are you still driving that car?
Yes, I am.
- Most people wouldn't. - It's scary.
- Most people wouldn't. - You don't know who was in it.
I felt like nothing else bad would ever happen to it.
- Was all your stuff gone? - No. Not all of it.
The person who stole it didn't recognise the value.
They only took the golf clubs...
- and fishing gear. - The clothes are more expensive.
- That's right. - The clothes are more expensive?
The clothes were way more expensive.
Won Hee drives a really old car. He had a Scoupe.
- Still? - That was a few years ago.
A Scoupe?
- That's really old. - I told him to get a new car.
He said he got a Sephia.
(He's happy as long as it can be driven.)
Here's Hye Yeon singing "Lonely Night".
Good luck.
("Lonely Night" by Han Hye Yeon)
She should shout in the beginning.
(She stands there quietly.)
Great.
(She hums.)
(She stands there looking like a wealthy woman.)
(The former singer is impressed,)
(but she looks anxious.)
(Sing more powerfully.)
The key is too low.
(She's steady even though the key is too low.)
(The key is raised as she starts the second half of the song.)
(She adjusted to the new key.)
Great.
(The singer and songwriter are impressed.)
(You're in my memory)
(She's excited.)
- That was great. - She was great.
- She sings well. - You adjusted the key immediately.
- You have a good ear. - We enjoyed that.
Thank you.
We enjoyed it.
You answered all of our questions without hesitation.
I can tell why...
you're all successful...
by seeing your cool charisma.
We'll say goodbye here. See you next week.
- Please! - Please!
(Thank you for returning!)
(They look the same as ever.)
(They haven't changed at all.)
I can say it now.
It was a shock.
- A reunion is the only hope. - We were desperate.
Why are you blaming H.O.T?
- We're kidding. - I'm not kidding.
Come out.
He's good.
He has YG backing him.
Are you thinking of marriage?
I'm being careful, so I won't get a divorce.
How do you know?
Are we doing all right?
(We love you, Sechs Kies.)
(Sechs Kies will be on Radio Star next week.)
