(Going past the autumn)
(Winter is right around the corner)
(Their school uniform changed to winter clothing too)
It's cold outside now.
Right around this time last year, when we changed out uniforms,
- We released "Sweet Dream." - Yes, that was last year.
Right around this time.
(The brothers poured in their souls in acting in cold weather)
"Sweet Dream" is not what's important!
Did you hear the news?
- What news? - Did you hear it?
- What is it? - He's the king of setting up a story.
Finally!
(He mispronounced it)
Finally!
Guys! We're finally getting our school IDs!
(Applaud first)
We didn't have a school ID before?
They didn't give us one before because we didn't look like students.
- You really brought them! - I did!
(School IDs?)
(Kang Ho-dong: Ask Us Anything School Captain)
Samja! That's Kyung-hoon, of course.
And "The giant who's 207 cm tall."
Here's your school ID.
What's this, "The town's leader at a dwarf village."
That's him.
(Lee Soo-geun: The town's leader at a dwarf village)
Here, the Nut Job.
Shouldn't it be "Universe's Big Star"?
This one's the most interesting.
This one says, "The sad kid."
(Which one is it?)
Is it Yeong-cheol?
It's either me or Sang-min.
I'm not "the sad kid," I'm just the kid who's not funny.
No no, here, "the sad kid."
It's Sang-min.
You're... "The kid who always gets his seat taken away."
Who made this? This is perfect.
- Do you like it or no? - I do!
How about you, Jang-hoon? It seems like you don't like yours so much.
I don't dislike it nor like it. I don't think this means anything.
Of course it's meaningful!
A fan living in Jeollanam-do made these for us!
A school ID for each one of us!
You should've told us that earlier!
(In an awkward situation)
How can you say that, Jang-hoon!
A fan made these for us!
- What's the name? - We can't say the name.
(The giant apologizes again today)
The fan spent money to make this for every single one of us.
I thought the staff made them, that's why.
Look what it says, "If you ever find this lost somewhere, it won't be returned
to the student even if you put it in the mailbox."
(How witty!)
It also says, "This ID is just for fun, it does not carry any legal force."
(Totally satisfied)
"The student can lend this ID to another person, but bears all responsibility
if the ID becomes lost or stolen."
I love the nicknames! Thank you!
So detailed, even with cautions in the back. How creative!
What did Ho-dong get recently? He got number one in a survey
done by people in the industry.
He's "the best TV personality" in 2017!
Soo-geun came in third.
Really?
Sang-min's second place.
Jang-hoon and Hee-chul are tied at 9th place.
Soo-geun's third.
But Kyung-hoon and I are not on the list.
He's not really a TV personality anyways.
He's a singer, he's not in the category.
It must be because I'm a singer, too.
That doesn't make any sense, how can I be number one?
(He's so modest)
But really, everyone around me these days
has been saying that Ho-dong is so funny!
(Can't control his face)
I find him really funny too, when we shoot.
Don't be ridiculous.
It's all just a bubble, it'll burst.
(Will it just burst soon?)
Don't compliment me, I'm allergic!
(A guy and a girl cautiously open the classroom door)
Amazing!
(The famous scene-stealer, Sung Dong-il!)
(A doll-like beauty, Goo Ha-ra!)
(Is this for real?)
I don't even know what to do!
Hey friends, I am...
(Funny how stiff he is)
What are you, nervous?
Dong-il is nervous!
No no, it's just been a while since I did a show on a set.
I guess people call me "a scene-stealer" these days.
I'll take care of your viewing rate with Goo Ha-ra today.
By how much?
25% is a big hit, right?
He's so ridiculous.
You can take out the 2.
The world's changed, viewing rate doesn't come that high anymore.
Goo Ha-ra's on the show, we'll get 25% this time.
Dong-il's the one who started the TV trend of shows with school uniforms.
(He was on "Off to School")
The main producer of this show was an assistant producer for "Off to School."
Yeah, you used to get 1% viewing rate, why are you mentioning 25% now?
(Both are taken aback)
- We only hit 1%? - 4 to 5%.
(No way!)
4%? No way!
(But it really did get 4 to 5%!)
Maybe they combined 5 episodes to get 5% total.
(Speechless at his logic)
I'm confident about getting 25%, let's give it a try.
We'll definitely get 25%!
That won't be so easy.
Hi, I'm from...
"I'm a human, not a doll" high school, I'm Goo Ha-ra.
(Glad to see her)
You're the one who said it, don't feel awkward.
I'm still talking, can you listen to me for a second?
- I'm listening. - Everyone, be quiet.
Kyung-hoon's actively participating today.
Ha-ra, just introduce yourself in your country accent to bring up the mood!
I don't have a country accent, I can only speak with Seoul standard.
You're just crazy for saying that.
(Don't be so mean!)
Hurry up and speak!
I'm Goo Ha-ra, I'm from "I'm a human not a doll" high school. [with accent]
I hope we have a good time today.
A little awkward, right?
Are you from Jeolla-do too, Dong-il?
No, I'm from Incheon.
Wow, really?
I was born in Incheon, I still live there too.
But your Jeolla accent sounds so genuine on TV!
I play whatever the role I get.
- As long as you're paid? - Exactly!
Finish it off now, what are we doing?
Let's sit down already.
(Sounds like a native from Jeolla)
It's been a while, Dong-il! Have you been well?
I was busy having 3 children.
You're a student, you have children?
They were already born, and I came back to school after.
Is it OK when we keep calling you by name without honorifics?
We're all friends here regardless of age.
No it feels nasty.
(Friends of same age for the day)
I can't help it, it's just the nature of the show.
Ha-ra, let me just ask one question.
I've been curious about this for the past 5 years.
There was a social media network called "Kakao Story" around 2013.
- They still have it. - That's true.
You requested to follow me on it first.
No, I never did.
- It wasn't you? - It must've been a fake account.
You sent her a message, huh.
(Disappointed)
Sang-min's actually pretty innocent.
How could you think that it's really her account?
But why would anyone approach Sang-min with a fake account?
There's nothing to take from Sang-min.
(What Soo-geun's saying makes sense too...)
(Tearing up at finding out the truth in 5 years)
You were having a really hard time in 2013, right?
Yeah, I was really lonely then.
I guess it wasn't that hard.
You still had time to worry about social media and stuff.
- No, but she's the one who... - He wasn't struggling all that much.
I was having such a hard time that I felt happy from the fact that Ha-ra
followed my account!
How could you have any time to check your social media site?
I had nothing else to do, so that's all I did at home.
So you kept it in your heart for 5 years?
I've just been curious this whole time.
"Did Goo Ha-ra, a fellow professional singer in the industry,
really request to follow me on social media?"
Just say it was you.
Are you sure it was Kakao Story?
Was it Twitter by chance?
No, I only had Kakao Story.
Then it definitely wasn't me.
(Sang-min's 5-year-long wonder ends tragically)
("The tears of Sang-min, the social media junkie")
I was seriously curious.
Ha-ra was really sick for a while.
- Are you OK now? - Yes.
Dong-il's the one who's looking sick.
I heard Ha-ra was really sick.
With what, her heart?
No, she had "the actress syndrome."
That's not true!
Not true!
She'd purposely speak slower too.
(Not fair)
She wanted to keep a public image of being high-class.
How did that story start?
- It's been a while. - Because she won't come on talk shows.
My physical strength couldn't handle all I was doing then.
My health suffered because of it.
So it wasn't that I was being prima Donna,
I just needed some time to rest.
She was actually sick! How can you say she had "the actress syndrome"?
(Embarrassed)
She was really sick!
(He's now a criminal)
You want me to just leave?
("I'm still sick! Cough cough")
(Is Ho-dong kicked out again today?)
You owe Ha-ra a sincere apology.
You should've been more considerate.
Or ask the staff at least.
Think about how she felt when you said that.
That's what people in the industry have been saying.
It's because she's really good at those shows.
She sings well, dances well, Dong-il.
(What about me?)
She used to be on "Strong Heart," and she was so funny every time
she was on the show!
(Explosion of laughter)
Then she just disappeared and no one could get her back on TV.
She just said she was really sick!
Just how sick were you?
(Faints from laughing so hard)
You couldn't get out of bed?
You were that sick?
(He's so funny!)
You couldn't even eat?
Just lying around, groaning?
Fine, good job.
(The most passionate way to worry about her health)
People didn't know that she was actually sick.
There are other rumors because of it.
One was that she got so into investing her money.
They said she stopped being a singer.
I heard she bought a whole building!
- Oh really? - Yes.
But don't you have a lot more money than Ha-ra, Dong-il?
That's not true, I really don't have much money.
I think I saw your name somewhere recently.
A banner that said, "Sung Dong-il reached 10 million dollars!"
You just say whatever comes to mind, huh.
I heard Sung Dong-il owns Sung-dong county.
Yeah, he actually owns Sungdong-gu!
(He's never experienced such a ridiculous charge before)
Oh, that's why the county is named after him!
(The king of Sungdong-gu, living in Incheon)
There are many corporations named after me.
Many construction companies with "Dong-il" as their names.
(A popular name in the corporate world)
People think I own them all.
- The school application? - Yes, I'll give you what I filled out.
Ha-ra's got many nicknames.
"Gu-sain Bolt."
- Wow, look at his photo! - It's no joke!
A picture from when he was younger!
- It's him? - He was so handsome!
(He was really good-looking)
I saw his old picture on TV before, he became an actor because of his good looks.
Sung Dong-il is his real name.
He does his own management.
He was never part of a management company.
- Freelancer. - Yes.
I don't want to give out money that I earned.
He really doesn't like that.
For the strengths and weaknesses parts,
he just put question marks instead of writing anything.
You have no weakness or flaw?
- I'm really not sure what mine are. - You want us to find them for you?
I think his strength is that he's a genius.
So I think his weakness must be like Kyung-kyu, who's also a genius,
that he can't take it when things get delayed or take a long time.
So he's got no patience.
I like Ho-dong because you just push forward when things don't go so well.
No, he takes a really long time to shoot an episode.
He probably takes the longest in Korea!
The rest of you must be so frustrating for him to do that.
(You're the best, Dong-il!)
(One has to experience it to know)
It takes us 10 hours to shoot an episode.
Then you can wake me up from time to time if you're curious about something.
(A brilliant idea!)
What do you think his strength is?
I think he's got such a charming voice, it's very manly.
He comes off as a very responsible person.
My wife hates my voice the most.
Why, why?
After living together for such a long time, wives say that they hate it when
their husbands open their eyes in the morning.
I'm learning so much here.
She gets mad at me, "Why did you wake up so early?"
It's even worse when I ask for breakfast.
- Worse if you eat all 3 meals at home. - If I do that...
She treats me like a criminal.
Then which meal do you eat at home? How many meals?
That's up to me.
I have to cook my own meals.
(Sad)
Don't worry, Jang-hoon can give you counseling if you need it.
What are you saying?
He's happy, with many children!
How can you say that?
Jang-hoon, it's not like I'm always happy though.
I think I can use some counseling.
A few of you here are experienced.
Let's look at Ha-ra's application.
Her future hope is to be "a happiness evangelist."
A happiness evangelist.
I just want everyone around me to be happy and joyful.
You should learn then, people in that profession clap a lot and stuff.
"Follow me!"
Are you selling something?
There's a profession called "happiness evangelist," and they do that.
She's got a very kind heart.
Her weakness is... I think this is actually a strength.
"I do whatever I'm told."
I think it can be both.
It's hard for you to refuse favors?
Even when you should?
I usually do everything I'm asked.
Alright, dance time!
(All of a sudden?)
(A standing ovation!)
We have many things to ask you to do, since you said that.
Oh it's "Mister"!
She dances automatically as soon as the music comes on!
(Her muscle memory responds)
(She doesn't delay a second before she starts to dance)
Another song, another song!
You can dance to other songs?
Yeah, I'll just do another one.
She's making demands.
No, I'm doing what I'm asked to do.
(She's gonna dance to this song?)
(How cute!)
(Getting closer to Ho-dong)
"Don't do this to me."
(She brings Ho-dong's mood up and down with her performance)
(The chicken dance)
(That's what I like!)
(She can dance to any genre of music)
You feel like a granddaughter who's visiting a senior citizens' facility.
Dong-il and the rest of us are just going...
(Clapping to a granddaughter's talent show)
(He's the most satisfied)
Why do you think it is that every girl-group members walks up to Ho-dong
among many people?
As if he grades their performances.
As if they're asking, "Is this good enough?"
Every single girl-group member does that here!
They look so scared when they dance.
(Like getting their homework assignment grades)
(I think that's the reason)
It's a new kind of a disorder, "Star King Syndrome."
They need Ho-dong's approval for whatever they do?
We're not sure actually.
Why did you go up to him? Because he's in the middle?
It's true that he's sitting in the center of the stage.
He smiles big too, good response.
Yeah, you guys are too stingy when it comes to expressing things.
That's why.
Let us know if you want to dance too, Dong-il.
- We have music. - You should dance!
My bones can't move more than 30 cm at a time.
How about that one thing then?
When people dance just by bouncing their knees?
A rhythmic dance.
I've never seen that.
That's how senior citizens dance.
It's called "the silver dance."
Kyung-hoon would be the best at that!
(He even made Psy kneel before him)
(Kyung-hoon's created a brand-new dance)
Anyone can do that.
Try it then.
A battle between Kyung-hoon and Ha-ra!
No one knows this, but Kyung-hoon is really excited right now.
- As soon as she walked in... - How can you possibly know that?
(What's going on?)
He normally doesn't say anything when people come in.
But this time, he was like, "Oh, hello!"
(Ha-ra walks in)
(Wow, so pretty!)
(Nice to meet you!)
Kyung-hoon, you're actively participating today.
He's acting weird today.
(Kyung-hoon is acting odd today)
(Dong-il walks up all of a sudden)
There's a certain way that people around my age dance.
(Kyung-hoon sits back down)
Come out here, you're already up.
(Kyung-hoon reluctantly stands next to Ha-ra)
It'll be crazy if Dong-il starts to do a BTS dance here.
We got a girl in her 20s, a guy in his 30s, and a guy in his 50s all together.
What was that trot song earlier?
"Oh My Goodness"!
This is how people around my age dance.
(Just moving to the beat)
(No movement wider than 30 cm)
I'll show how people in their 30s dance.
(Oh My Goodness!)
(A modern groove)
Rhythm's the most important!
(No sudden movements here too)
20s, this time!
(Shake shake)
(Her shoulders joints are intact)
She moves totally differently than others!
(Same song, different feel)
(Great job, everyone!)
Ha-ra's so good!
(Ha-ra in her 20s dance in a cute way)
Kyung-hoon in his 30s moved around, but not too much.
People in their 50s feel embarrassed a little and their joints aren't the same.
That's why people in their 40s and 50s lift up their arms.
They're covering their faces.
No one dances like this in their 40s and 50s.
They all cover their faces!
Hold try to hold on to something.
Once you get around my age,
only air comes out when you want to spit, there's no moisture.
(He was just about to take a sip of water)
No moisture in our bodies.
We can't even cry at funerals, no tears come out.
We're so dry.
Older folks need to drink more water.
(She hands him water)
Thanks...
Next, this is Ha-ra's strength.
She says she's very determined.
There's a show called, "Idol Star Athletics Championships."
The show started with me, really. It's a track meet.
(Ha-ra is very athletic, good in many different sports)
I wanted to do some athletic exercises with you.
Let's see who can hang the longest holding on to a bar.
1 against 8!
You keep holding on while we rotate?
Yes, you can rotate one by one.
I'll just keep holding on.
That's not so fun, how about we hold on to you?
And you can reject whomever you don't like.
Holding on to her like begging her,
"Please take me back, Ha-ra!"
(I'm all for this game)
It'll be amazing if she beats all 8 of us.
Not like that, but like this.
You're saying you can keep holding yourself up like that until all of us fall off?
Yes.
How will Jang-hoon do this?
I'll just lift up my legs.
(Ha-ra quietly prepares herself)
Soo-geun, I'm just gonna hook my chin up here.
I don't think it's gonna work, you have to come down at some point.
I think you're too heavy for it.
I can hang for 5 minutes like this.
I have a strong neck.
My neck muscles are very well-developed.
He means that he'll just come down from it quickly.
Just know that for now. I'm gonna time them.
My neck muscles are the strongest muscles I have.
What's your record, Ha-ra?
I've never measured, but I think 5 minutes.
But there are 8 of us!
You don't think we can last 5 minutes between 8 of us?
Ha-ra! Wait, I don't think we can.
Ho-dong, 3 seconds. Dong-il, 2 seconds.
- I can beat her alone. - Jang-hoon, 1 second.
I won't even use my hands.
You're gonna get hurt!
My neck and back muscles are very strong!
This is got nothing to do with that!
He can't do it, doesn't matter.
Ho-dong, don't do it like that.
Just bite down on the bar.
Imagine it's a piece of barbecue rib.
I'm gonna let go.
- I should hold on, right? - Yeah you should!
It's quite embarrassing, but I will.
Ready, set...
Go!
(Ha-ra is looking peaceful)
(Ho-dong is about to die)
Ho-dong can go a long time.
(It took him all of 7 seconds)
(Jang-hoon is next!)
He can do this!
Stay alive!
(But falls off as expected)
(Still pretty relaxed)
(Dong-il is next)
Sorry, but your face doesn't look so pleasant right now.
It's the face of a criminal who committed treason.
(Please kill me instead)
(Ha-ra starts to struggle too)
Can I take a nap like this?
- Ha-ra's feeling her limit! - She's almost there.
It's over, Ha-ra!
(We've only gone through 3 people out of 8)
I'm struggling!
(Goo Ha-ra falls!)
(Fails miserably)
(Criticism pours in)
(She can't even stand up)
Dong-il makes it happen!
(Can't stand up straight)
Ha-ra, you didn't last 5 minutes, that was just 50 seconds!
Ha-ra, you must've been in real pain.
I really was in a lot of pain.
I've gotten much weaker than before.
Ha-ra can't come to this school then.
I'll go home now then.
(Feeling pain in her body and heart)
You should send me home now instead.
(Both declare that they want to go home)
We never let people go after they come here.
They're accepted!
(Congratulations, Dong-il and Ha-ra!)
A few of us didn't even get to try this.
Now it's the main part, you have to guess these questions about myself.
I am very close to my aunt, and we talk on the phone at least once a day.
But my aunt always says this whenever we talk on the phone.
What do you think it is?
Something your aunt tells you?
We have to guess things about people's aunts now?
- You're close to your aunt? - Very much so.
I got it!
"Hey, my daughter!"
It's similar.
"Oh, my baby!"
(A nickname older folks say?)
"My puppy!"
It is a nickname she calls me by.
"Something something" Ha-ra.
"My princess Ha-ra."
No.
How many letters?
You have to count?
How can we get that?
How can we ever guess that long of a phrase?
14 letters.
How are we supposed to guess that?
11 letters even without "Hey, Ha-ra."
(She counts again to make sure)
14 letters without "Hey, Ha-ra."
Without "Ha-ra" it's still 14 letters?
"My baby Ha-ra, don't get sick and stay healthy"?
It's the whole phone call, not just a nickname.
It's just a nickname?
Yeah, it's a nickname.
"My baby, the prettiest in the world."
It's similar to that.
(Similar?)
"My baby, the prettiest in the world, Baby Ha-ra."
What kind of a baby is that?
"The baby that never calls me."
I'll tell you the main letters.
"Oh"
"Yeo "
"Yeh"
"Sa"
"Ha."
That's even more confusing.
I got it!
"Oh!"
"Hello?"
"Yeah!"
"I love you, Ha-ra!"
Isn't that right?
- Not bad, right? - Wrong!
"Ha-ra, you're as pretty and lovely as a queen today again!"
Wrong!
"Ha-ra, you're pretty and lovely again today without exception"
You used a wrong word.
(She looks a little surprised)
"Oh! Everyone!"
"Pretty and lovely Ha-ra just called me!"
(Declaring Telecommunication)
Let's calm down a little there.
You can be a little more cautious.
Sang-min dropped a little in his popularity these days.
I got it!
"I'm going on a trip today, if you have some money in your bank,
send some my way. I'll use it just for a day!"
(You own a building!)
- I got it. - Kyung-hoon.
"Oh Ji-myeong, Yeo Woon-kay, Ye Ji-won, Sa Mi-ja, Ha Chun-hwa."
What is that?
(Speechless)
Don't hit me!
Just say you want Ha-ra to hit you with the hammer.
Dong-il's in shock right now.
What is the point of this show again?
Do we really have to go this far in being ridiculous?
Can't we just pass the question at this point?
The answer's almost out.
Older folks often call their cute nieces "foxes."
"Ha-ra, pretty and lovely as a fox today!"
Really similar.
I got it!
"Ha-ra, as pretty and lovely as a fox today!"
(Almost there!)
"Ha-ra, as pretty as a lying, barbaric fox!"
(A total disaster)
(Getting more confusing)
"Oh my God, pretty, oh my God, here, so pretty, lovely Ha-ra!"
Dong-il's not smiling anymore.
You guys actually pay him for this?
I haven't gotten paid in 8 weeks.
Once again, what'd you say?
(Her aunt lived overseas for too long)
(Feeling pressured)
"I'm her aunt, she's my niece, I live in America!"
- From LA, right? - Yes, I'm her aunt from LA.
(Pretending to call her)
(An international call from Los Angeles, USA)
"My phone's not working, Aunt!"
(Unlimited replay)
(Sounds like an answering machine)
(A phone conversation with Auntie Young-mi is so addicting)
It's just one letter that you keep getting wrong.
- She's got Gwangju accent? - Yes.
"Ha-ra, pretty and lovely today again without exception!"
Similar!
Try in Seoul accent.
"Ha-ra, you're pretty and lovely today as always!"
That's right!
I can't believe it.
I can't believe he actually got it right.
I was right then, "Today as always..."
You said "without exception" instead.
I'm sorry, but do you know how many times I'd pretty much give the right answers
and you just change a few words to get them right?
- 520! - That many times?
Less than I thought, actually.
(I guess he's been counting all this time)
"Hello, Aunt!"
(Automatic replay)
(She's always just a phone call away)
(Auntie Young-mi always gives strength to Ha-ra)
We should just say Yeong-cheol got the right answer by this point.
(Just call him your auntie from now on)
OK! Good job, Yeong-cheol.
She calls you that everyday?
Yeah, she says to me everyday,
"Ha-ra, you're pretty and lovely today as always!"
"Have you eaten yet? What are you doing?"
She's really cute.
She even says "hello" in a cute way.
How old is she?
Around the same age as Dong-il.
She must love you very much.
She raised me.
That must be why!
(Ha-ra and her aunt are especially close)
I have a question, you have a son and a daughter, right Dong-il?
Do you have nicknames for them too?
We're proper, I just call them by their names.
They all have a single-letter name.
(Single-letter names can feel like nicknames anyways)
My daughter Bin asked me one day, "How come all our names are missing
a letter compared to other names?"
So I just had to be honest.
"It's easy to call you by, and it's easy to write it."
I asked if she didn't like it.
"It's OK."
(How cute!)
Bin is really cute, she's really random.
I'll give the second question now.
Let's not do a long one this time, maybe just a three-letter answer.
When do you think I was the most proud of myself, my happiest moment?
I got it! When you signed the contract to own your building.
I know! When you sold the building.
This is before I debuted.
Didn't you win a "beautiful face" competition or something?
It's related.
You were once a part of a pyramid scheme before.
And you got your mother into it.
We're just going for her entire family now.
Are you being Hee-chul, Kyung-hoon?
You're saying what Hee-chul would say.
It's like a psychiatric help center here.
(No one here is normal, that's for sure)
(He's the worst one in Dong-il's book)
(A whole new world for him)
You were an extra in a film.
You worked as a clothing model.
(Surprised)
For an online shopping mall?
You used it as an excuse, and took off with their clothes.
(It was an unforgettable and thrilling experience)
How far will you go, really?
I'm sure she felt very rewarded that day.
You sold stolen clothes to get rich.
We're barely getting started, it'll just be like this the whole time.
(Spitting out ridiculous words like a fountain)
It's got something to do with how I got to save money.
"Little by little" is my hint.
You went to a bank everyday?
Similar.
You loaned money to your friends.
With the legal maximum of 27.9% interest rate!
You said you worked as a model for shops?
So you'd have to go to the shops and put on clothes, take pictures.
Starting then, you stole money from the register little by little.
(Respect by this point)
You deposited the money you earned at an ATM everyday.
Through an ATM, everyday.
Wait, be more specific.
You gotta name the bank too. Around which period...
Which bank was it?
You earned money as a model before you debuted,
and deposited the money you earned through an ATM everyday.
That's correct!
(A giant with flowers)
I'm out of celebration ceremonies.
Please send me some ideas for ceremonies.
I came to Seoul when I was in high school.
I worked as an online shop model while I was a trainee.
I put a few dollars in my account everyday at an ATM.
- You can make deposits there? - I know, right?
No, you can.
I saved up 550 dollars at the end.
But it was such a huge amount for me at that time.
I felt so happy with that much money saved, felt like I could buy a whole house.
She became a building owner now because of that mentality.
I still have that checking account, the way it is.
It's still the same?
That became the starting point of buying a building later.
What does "ATM" stand for?
(You can see as much as you know)
It's a soccer team.
(Applauding his creativity)
I guess that works too.
(He can win the World Cup with his play of words)
That's amazing.
How did you become a model?
Did you go through an audition?
Well, you have to have the fit for it.
You also have to know how to pose well.
You also have to know how to make good facial expressions.
How about for a school uniform ad?
A cute pose like this.
Or like this.
Lift up the skirt a little like this.
You can work part time when you're already a trainee at a music label?
I had to make a living, even just a little.
(She had to work twice as hard)
Thanks, I'm glad you approve.
How much did you get paid for a shoot?
About...
A little more than 10 dollars.
Ten dollars?
It's 4 and a half dollars per hour.
(Part time hourly rate is much lower than expected)
So about 12 to 13 dollars after working for 3 hours.
If she saved up 55 dollars from making that much,
it means she didn't spend any money on herself.
I'd only use the money for transportation.
Any other type of work?
I did many different things for work.
Online shop model, passing out fliers,
doing dishes at a restaurant...
- In the kitchen? - Yes, in the kitchen.
I worked as a waitress too.
I did it all.
Dong-il, didn't you work many different jobs before too?
It shows all over his face.
For me...
I never worked a part-time job, ever.
Really?
I just persevered.
I started working as a theater actor since second year in college,
and never did any other type of work, other than acting.
I just stuck to this one profession.
What made you so confident?
In myself. I believed in myself.
How did you make a living if you had no work?
My college friends would give me 30 or 50 dollars from time to time
when they got paid from their jobs. They'd buy me meals.
I only made 1,200 dollars total over 10 years before I got famous.
For 10 years?
My college friends would make about that much in a month.
I had to see whose place I could sleep over after a theater performance.
The first one to get drunk that night was the first candidate.
I'll say, "I'll help you get home," and sleep over there.
And they'd buy me breakfast the next morning.
You'd have to so good to your wife.
She was there for you during that tough period.
It must've strengthened you.
Now, onto the third question.
Hee-chul and I worked on a TV show together once.
There's something Hee-chul told me every time we met.
What do yo think it was?
"I love you."
What do you take me for?
Every time you met?
"It's our first day as a couple today!"
No, but similar.
It is?
- Then it must be... - I heard this before.
Hee-chul jokes often about things like this.
He's always asking girls to marry him.
"Marry me."
"Ha-ra, let's get married."
"When do you wanna get married?"
That's completely ridiculous!
- She's not my type at all! - Neither are you mine.
I've never said anything like that.
"Ha-ra, let's get married."
That's right!
(Jang-hoon gets it again!)
When did I ever ask you to marry me?
You said that many times.
Me?
I'd sit on your right side, and you'd always go,
"Hey, Ha-ra, let's get married."
You said that every day.
I did?
I'm 100% sure she's right.
No one should joke around with another person's feelings.
He'd just say he was joking if you didn't go for it.
You did!
(They talk among themselves)
(Others are still trying to figure out what Hee-chul's intention was)
Marriage? No way!
Let's say this belongs to you. I'll take it without knowing, but if you saw it
I'd say, "I'm just kidding!" But I'd take it if you didn't.
I'm sorry, but can everyone speak just in one place?
The cameramen don't know what to do right now.
(Organizing where people are talking)
- I asked you to marry me? - You said that.
How did you answer him?
Did you say yes?
I'd say, "Depends on what you do."
Ha-ra liked him too!
No, that's not it.
No, he's not my type at all.
I'm sorry, but I think Kyung-hoon's a little mad now.
You're the only one I got.
How do you have meetings like that?
Is there a meeting?
Hee-chul's just so clever.
If the rest of us said things like that, we might get sued.
But he'll see if Ha-ra gets mad, and he'll say he was joking.
If he feels like she's into him, he'll focus on getting her.
He'll also whisper in my ear everyday,
"Hey..."
"Come with me after."
(Come with me?)
(Losing his mind over a series of attack)
To where? Where?
(Ha-ra and Hee-chul are at a all-out war)
I understand how you guys feel, it's not true!
It's such a ridiculous charge!
You came to pick me up once at a karaoke bar when I was drunk.
When did I do that?
(Their story is turning into a daytime soap opera)
- You really don't remember? - Hold on, Hee-chul.
(Ho-dong checks his phone)
(Filming this for himself)
So then what happened?
Tell me more, the staff might edit this part out.
I need evidence.
I'm gonna spread this on "essence"!
You mean "SNS," like social network.
So in conclusion, did you or did you not ask me to marry you?
Why is your voice shaking?
You want to marry me, huh.
Did you ask me to marry you or no?
Do I look like someone who'd say that to girls?
I heard that about you many times.
If he's heard that many times...
I think Hee-chul can would do something like that.
He plays that role.
But I'm taken aback by your response.
"Depends on what you do"?
And the reason your voice is shaky the whole time today...
I don't think it's because you're nervous.
There's a different reason.
It's hard for girls to shake in their vocal cords like that.
(Witness 1)
(Accused)
(Witness 2)
Ho-dong, you should make a social media account first.
(Ho-dong needs a private tutor on how to use social media)
He'll never be able to post it unless someone teaches him.
It'll take him more than a year.
I'm getting dizzy.
It's not something you should joke about though, don't you think?
Of course not! You'd get slapped for that back in the day.
I think she's weird too, for not slapping him.
You should've slapped me if I really asked you that.
I'll slap you now.
- Slap him and we'll end it here. - Stop it, you didn't get married.
Some people actually got married then broke up.
It's not something you should joke about.
That's the final destination of this conversation.
(Every conversation ends with this topic)
Why do you always look at me when you say that stuff?
You should face him!
(Startled)
You looked at me and asked me just now.
Ask him too!
Why do you keep acting like you've never been married before?
I didn't do anything!
Make sure you ask him that next time, not me.
I won't leave you alone next time.
There's no scar that you guys are cautious about, no one's hurt.
What a nice show!
- That was nice. - Was it?
What a fun lie!
Hee-chul, you should take care of Kyung-hoon more.
He's always very serious.
He looks so proper on the outside.
But when he speaks, it's a total mess like a street market.
A street market!
There's no barcode on products or set prices, just saying whatever comes to mind!
(Kyung-hoon's street market is open today!)
There are no rules on price.
Since I'm a "happiness evangelist," we'll finish with clapping.
(Dong-il's "Guess Things about Me" Quiz)
The most baffling event in my entire acting career.
Happened at a TV station, not in a theater.
Was this after you became famous? Or before?
I have nothing to complain about after I got famous, this happened before.
It was something very absurd, shouldn't have happened.
He went through so many hardships before, he's not baffled over small things.
More than me, I think the viewers might have been more baffled.
It was only possible because I wasn't known yet. That's the point.
You played several roles by yourself on the same drama!
Isn't that baffling for the viewers? To see the same actor playing different roles
in a plot, with just clothes changed.
Ho-dong's on the right track.
I got it!
You were being tortured in a drama, and you were the torturer too!
So he played a policeman and a victim at the same time.
There was a time difference involved.
And not in the same space.
I got it!
Your character died in the drama, and you were buried.
You were put in a casket, and buried in the ground.
But no one took you out after shooting,
the staff just came back the next day and said, "See if he's still alive."
And you came back alive.
You guys pretty much said it already.
Just make it easier.
I got it!
You died in a scene.
Then you had to play a baby the next day.
Your character died in the drama, but you appeared again as a different character.
That's right.
(Seo Jang-hoon answers correctly!)
- What kind of a drama was it? - Can you elaborate?
It was a drama called "Korea Gate."
I played a bodyguard for the president.
And I get shot and killed while trying to protect the president.
Don't move, I'll shoot!
(He dies while trying to protect the president)
So that was that.
Then the director called me.
Dong-il, I like your acting.
Come on the drama again.
I died already!
Trust me, no one knows you.
I died on the 10th episode, but played a different role in the next one.
What role? As a North Korean spy.
(As if it's his first time appearing in the drama!)
The viewers didn't know?
They didn't know, it just went on.
It's impossible in this day and age.
Only worked because he was an unknown actor at the time.
I'll tell you a story, a TV station asked me to appear in a TV drama when
I was a theater actor.
They'd pay us about 28 dollars to act on TV, for theater actors.
It was a drama on MBC network, with Won Mi-kyung and Kim Dong-hyun as
as the lead characters.
It was in January, very cold.
No heater or air conditioning in MBC station in Jeongdong.
The assistant director told me to take off my clothes as soon as I got there.
So I did, then he called over the makeup crew.
They colored me in gold all over my body,
and just wore fundoshi, the Japanese underwear.
I couldn't wear anything else on top, because of the gold paint.
And I had to wait almost naked for 10 hours straight in the cold.
Kim Dong-hyun saw us waiting like that, going back and forth,
and he said, "Hey Director, can we shoot these guys first? They've been waiting
since the morning."
You couldn't go to the bathroom?
(Moving quickly)
It was Ho-dong?
(Everyone blames him to be the culprit who farted)
(The clean giant stands out in the hallway)
I'm the one who normally farts but this time...
What is going on here!
How can the country's most popular MC do such a thing?
(So appalled)
We got our guests here!
We're listening to a guest's story and you fart in the middle of it?
I think the fart ripped through his pants.
You should go to the bathroom, I think you sharted.
(Stutters)
Pi Chun-deuk the Poet said this before,
"A life is just a series of explanations to resolve big and small misunderstandings."
(Bringing out a great quote in this situation)
I've never felt more misunderstood in my life.
This is the first time ever in my life I felt this way.
You think I'd do that in front of Goo Ha-ra?
As an expert, it was a real fart.
I didn't fart!
What sound was that then?
It's common in Ho-dong's age to have trouble controlling his sphincter muscle.
(Nailing him as the culprit)
I really didn't do it!
I think he's feeling really awkward, let's sit back down.
Do you smell fart?
Mine smells really bad, normally.
Oh really?
You don't have to go up to him to smell him.
No smell, right?
It's 100%.
(She answers by coughing instead)
Look here, guys.
It's this sound!
No, that wasn't it.
It's like getting Botox on your anus.
It probably feels numb all the time around your age.
I can't believe I have to go through this, it wasn't me!
I'll go on to the next question.
When I was living alone before,
something happened that I was blamed to be a thief.
Hint is that I was living on my own.
And I didn't have many household items, I was poor.
I got it.
Because Sung Dong-il only focused on his acting career in life,
he was practicing his acting at home too.
A policeman happened to walk by him,
"I'm the thief!"
That was the line Dong-il was practicing at the moment.
We've been filming "Ask Us Anything" for over one year,
and this is the loudest your voice has ever been.
So the police was confused, but you kept saying
lines that made you seem like the criminal.
So you were assumed to be the robber.
The police wasn't necessary. I solved it myself.
I know.
Your hobby was collecting all kinds of junk in the neighborhood.
So you started to collect these junks at home, but your neighbor saw you
and thought, "He's a receiver of stolen goods." So he reported you.
- Receiver of stolen goods? - There are people like that.
- You guys are halfway there. - We're halfway there.
Oh, I got it.
Back then, people threw out thing like home appliances and sofa, out on the streets.
You thought someone threw it away and took it.
But you were afraid you'd be misunderstood, so you put it back.
You know how I roam around neighborhoods lately during "Let's Eat Dinner Together."
Even today, people throw out things and leave a note saying people could take it.
That's right. They write notes.
Things like home appliances. They didn't have another way to throw it away back then.
(He became a robber because he took those junks?)
- You guys almost got it. - I know!
At night, in the house next door, someone moved in.
When you move in, all your belongings have to stay outside.
But he didn't know that and brought them home because he thought they were junk.
- He actually knew the truth though. - That's how he was cornered as a thief..
- You're almost there! - I got it.
- You moved in and while looking around the neighborhood... - Out.
Listen to me. You went around the neighborhood to know
your whereabouts, but you were mistaken as a robber.
That's why I said you were out.
- I told you! - Okay.
(I said you're wrong.)
I got it. The house next door put their fridge outside.
But you thought they were throwing it away, so you took it home.
However, your neighbors went on a rampage wondering where their fridge went.
You admitted you took it and gave it back to them.
- You got it. - Really?
My neighbors left their fridge outside for a moment, but
I assumed they were throwing it away, so I took it.
I had nothing.
I used to use this tiny fridge you see in motels.
I was on my way home at two or three in the morning after drinking.
I used to live in a semi-basement, but there was a two
door fridge outside my next door neighbor's house.
I thought, "Wow. I can't believe they're throwing this
away." So I took it home with my brother and went to bed.
The neighborhood went into upheaval.
My neighbor was on a rage claiming some thief had stolen his fridge
that he had temporarily left out to put new wallpaper in his house.
He was going crazy, saying, "I'm going to kill that jerk!"
He kept talking about wallpaper.
"I left my fridge out to put new wallpaper, but some rats took my fridge!"
His house was right next to mine. If he just turns the corner, it's my house.
So in the end, I returned it to him.
Young-chul got the answer.
- But at the time, anyone would've assumed it was being thrown away. - Right.
He could've written a note not to take it away,
- but he just left it out on the street. It wasn't even in his gate. - Right.
- I thought it was junk, so I took it. - Was there any food inside?
There was no food!
- Back then, people didn't leave their refrigerators outside. - Exactly!
There were people back then who wore backpacks
and went around 24/7 taking junk like that.
- So they just take it if they see things like that. - Exactly.
- Once you left it out, someone took it right away. - Yes.
In 1980, my mother and I ran a tented vendor.
It was named after the Olympics, so it was called 88 Tented Vendor.
We did it for about 10 years in front of Bupyeong Station.
But something tremendous happened.
Something unimaginable. What was it?
- Nowadays, a typhoon is no big deal, but back then it was. - Right.
There was a typhoon, and the tented vendor flew
away with just the people standing there.
So the branch changed from Bupyeong Station to somewhere else.
It flew over there, so you and your mother were like, "We must go over there!"
Tented vendors aren't chain restaurants.
- Is it something unbelievable? - I know.
There were dishes at the tented vendor,
but the next day, they were all gone.
It's a bit similar.
- Something a bit stronger. - Stronger?
There was a cart thief, and he happened to steal your working mother, too.
So your mother was like...
But your mother was excited the cart was moving.
(Dumbfounded)
The thieves after the tented vendor were starting to steal things
when they decided to have a glass of soju. So they got drunk and fell asleep there.
- That happens sometimes. - Really?
You know those locks on the sides of the tent?
There are things like alcohol over there, so you have to put a lock over them.
Then those thieves pick those locks and drink a lot of the alcohol.
There are many petty thieves like that, but this happened out of the blue.
The salted eel was definitely frozen, but when you were about to grill it, it went...
(Please spare me.)
- It was alive? - Yes.
That's how unbelievable this is.
The thieves couldn't pull the cart, so they brought a car to do it.
You're 95% there. It's nearly 99%!
- Someone put that on a car and just left. - You got it.
That's what I was going to say!
So they didn't drag the cart? They loaded it into a car?
- Why would they do that? - This is really unbelievable.
At around 4 a.m., the tented vendor closes, and we live it in a depository.
I went to the tented vendor after working at the theater, cleaned
up at 4:30 a.m., went home, and slept, but my mother was in a rage.
While coming back from the market, someone...
What was popular back then was there there would be about three to four thieves. There
were all kinds of things in the tented vendor, you know? Like alcohol and chairs.
- They would pick up the whole thing, load it in a truck, and leave. - Unbelievable.
So my mom went nuts.
I woke up in the middle of the night, and we searched the entire area together.
But in the end, we couldn't find it.
But we found out these thieves take this truck and steal all over the country.
If they stole from Incheon, they would go to places like
Gangwon-do and Chuncheon-do to sell the tented vendors.
- So I was really dumbfounded. - So what happened?
In the end, we couldn't catch them. It took us two months to re-invent everything.
- We couldn't do business. - You wasted money, too.
- Nowadays, there are CCTVs. - Back then, there was nothing.
Even the police couldn't catch them.
- Maybe it was the fridge owner. - Maybe he did it for revenge.
- The fridge owner. - Maybe he came to get revenge?
The fridge owner was like, "Oh, look at him."
"I took this because I thought your mom threw this tented vendor away, too."
Wow. It's a never-ending story.
I'll give the fourth question.
A few days ago, I was drinking with In-sung.
During that time, a staff member from this show sent me the preparation sheets.
- Yes. - Things like questions and stuff.
In-sung was looking through that at our lodging.
- At our questions? - Yes.
- Are you talking about Jo In-sung? - Yes.
He wrote one phrase on there. What did he write?
- What did Jo In-sung write? - Yes.
"When will I become successful like you and go on 'Ask Us Anything'?"
"Please let me go on 'Ask Us Anything.' too."
"Please. Buing, buing."
This isn't a show you can easily appear on.
It's going to be difficult for him to come here.
- Nice. - That's right. We have about 78 people on the wait list.
Even Seung-gi can't come out on here.
He can't. It makes a viewer rating of 25%.
What did he write? It was simple.
- "Forget it." - "Swag."
(That darn swag appears every time they're about to forget it.)
It's similar. It shows how well he knows my personality.
"Dong-il is?"
I know. "Will he do it?"
99%! But you have to get the words right.
It's a doubt. It's self-mocking.
- "I'm not sure?" - You got it!
(Ho-dong got it!)
That's right. He wrote that.
- Wow. - I got one right today.
- I know. How'd you get that? - "I'm not sure?"
The misunderstanding of the farting issue is resolved.
Even the viewers know it's you.
(It's impossible to recover from the farting with just one answer.)
- He wrote that about the question about what you're good at? - Yes.
In-sung saw that and wrote, "I'm not sure? Would Dong-il do that?"
He wrote that, so I asked, "What is it? Let me see."
He said he wrote "I'm not sure?" So I asked him why.
"Would you even do it?"
I've never met Jo In-sung on a show, but I've seen him in private occasions.
He really has a great character.
I've heard a lot that he's good-looking, but I completely fell for his charms!
How could he be both good-looking and nice?
- He said he watches this show. - Really?
Really. But you only came on this week, so why are you asking?
- Answer right away. Jo In-sung or Kim Hee-chul? - Jo In-sung.
(My goodness.)
I like Ha Yeon-soo more than you, too.
Kim Hee-chul is keeping her in check.
- What? - Jo In-sung or Kang Ho-dong?
- Answer me. - Jo In-sung.
- Jo In-sung or Kang Ho-dong? - Um...Kang...
You should smile. Why are you asking her like that?
- Do you think she'd choose...? - Mr. Baek!
Oh my gosh! Wait a minute!
Ha-ra.
- Wait a minute! - Oh my gosh! Mr. Baek!
Ha-ra.
- Wait a minute! - Oh my gosh! Mr. Baek!
(Scared out of their wits)
- Mr. Baek! - I just got goosebumps!
(Just with his entrance, everyone is in discipline mode.)
- I got goosebumps just now! - Is he really Mr. Baek?
- I just got goosebumps! - Me, too! What do we do?
- He scared me. - Hello.
(It's like seeing terrified meerkats.)
I'm Yun-shik, the one who has been attending this school
for 30 years, Ha-ra's big brother, Ha-ra's greatest fan.
(Simply amazed)
Are you guys the rascals hanging around Ha-ra?
- Yes. - Yes.
I think you're reading from your script.
(Caught)
- Just listen. - Sit down.
(Now they sit down.)
- He scared me. - Mr. Baek, did you transfer here as a student?
I told you I've been here for 30 years!
- He has the same clothes as you. - Yes. Yun-shik is our friend.
- What? - I'm a bit offended.
We're in the same school.
Yun-shik has been going to night school for 30 years.
That's why you guys don't see him.
- That's why we saw you for the first time today. - I'm stunned.
How dare you guys covet my sister?
If you hang around her one more time...
all of you will be dead then.
I can't believe we saw him say this in real life!
(Respect)
- Why can't we like Ha-ra? - Can't I like her?
- I... - He never moves unless he has to.
- You're dead, Young-chul. - You guys want to like her, too.
I'll explain why you can't like her.
Face is authority and power.
What kind of crazy fool would trust this kind of
face and entrust you with his one and only sister?
You're out.
I'm out?
He's my senior classmate of my school's theater group.
When are you going to debut?
It's been over 30 years already. Are you going to keep staying at school?
- Aren't you going to debut. - Dong-il debuted.
Well, I can be with Ha-ra, can't I?
- What are you going to do? - You fox-like bear.
- Do you think I don't know your rumors? - My rumors?
You're the guy who uses his pretty looks to charm all the girl groups and boy groups.
(He got caught!)
He charms the boy groups!
(Shredded and torn)
- Go and take care of them. - Isn't it possible for me to be with her?
Let me see your wrist.
Wow. With callus like this...
the game is you, and you are one with the game.
Oh, one with the game.
You're a shameless brat who will change Ha-ra for game items.
- That's a misunderstanding. - Just play your games.
- I'm out. - Let me carefully ask you. What about me?
Gosh. Why are you so long?
Are you the guy who has no courage to find love again because he was heartbroken?
Yes.
- He can't love anymore. - Look here.
In this field, there are neither eternal lovers or eternal enemies.
Get right back up and find someone new.
Ha-ra is off-limits though.
- Why? - Why is she off-limits?
She's just off-limits. Stop asking me.
- Sang-min is next. He's really popular nowadays, so he'll make it. - Right.
If I put a stethoscope on you, I'll get a diagnosis. I'm Dr. Baek.
Should I reveal an estimate of your debt here?
You're out, too.
- These two are left. - Of course they're out.
- Mr. Baek. - Oh!
Oh, you look awfully familiar.
Where did you see me?
That's right! House!
Sergeant?
We met at house before, didn't we?
Let go of me! Let go!
- I can play more! - Don't mind him and keep playing.
(That rascal is...?)
- Don't you remember we memorized those spells together? - I do.
Asura balbalta.
(So that was you!)
- Go and clean up everything. - I should've protected you on the train back then.
I couldn't protect you though. Asura balbalta.
He's not who you think he is.
Do you choose Ha-ra or ramen with rice cakes?
- Ramen with rice cakes? - Ha-ra, of course.
Do you choose Ha-ra or dumpling soup?
- Dumpling soup. 100%. - Ha-ra, of course.
You fool.
I feel so satisfied!
From now on, when you lie, don't look at the other person's eyes.
Out.
Give me one more chance!
I want Ha-ra to meet a smart man.
Nowadays, there's this new game that kids in the new generation play.
Let me pick the smartest man here through that game.
- You brought a new game? - Yes.
- I have confidence. - I guess he brought a new game.
I'm the best at games.
(Polite)
You know what to do without me telling you.
- Wait a minute. Don't tell me that's the new game. - Omok?
- Isn't that stone flicking? - Look at him carrying that tablet around.
It's a laptop.
- You guys heard about omok, right? - Yes.
That's the hottest game right now.
It's super popular in places like Hongdae and Garusogil.
He found out about this game recently.
You're going to divide into two teams and take turns playing omok.
Don't give hints to each other just because you're on the same team.
If I catch you giving hints...
I will definitely get you!
I will definitely get you. You know where it's from, right?
(He's so cute.)
Even he promotes his movies, too.
To be honest, it's quite tiring.
(Honest)
- Amazing! - I will win and definitely get Ha-ra.
Good.
Hold on. I should write down his name in my notebook.
- Kim Hee-chul. - He used it very well.
- Be careful. It's a death note. - You just got praised.
He's smart.
Okay. Well, must I go on?
(Bros School)
(Battle of omok to be chosen as Ha-ra's boyfriend)
Can't Yun-shik go instead of me?
Sorry, but we decided to just call him Mr. Baek.
- We're all students though. - We decided to call him Mr. Baek.
- How could you? - You're slowly trying to become equivalent as me.
Come on, Dong-il.
Just because we filmed a movie together, you're slowly trying to crawl over me.
(Gloomy)
At that rate, you'll be dead.
(Flinch)
(They first divide into teams!)
- What's this? - Black and white.
One, two, three.
I'm with you.
We have to go over there.
This is a speedy battle.
We can speed it up then.
- Three seconds. - Five seconds are too long actually.
- We need to hurry. Five seconds are too long. - It's too fast.
Two. One.
- You guys are quick. - There. Oh, there!
"I shouldn't have said that."
"On that train, the sergent-
I shouldn't have said that."
(Hee-chul is the best!)
You're the best, Hee-chul.
"I said the right thing."
"They're dogs and pigs anyways."
"They'll forget."
(Meanwhile, they're having a fierce battle)
- Our aggressive Seo Jang-hoon. - Is this Sakura? It is.
Don't surprise me. We said we wouldn't do that to each other.
"I shouldn't have said that."
I will definitely get you.
Mr. Baek, it seems like you love to promote your movies.
He doesn't care the slightest bit about the game.
(No interest)
- From one point on, he's not even watching. - I'm sorry.
Did Dong-il act well this time?
Yes. He improved a lot.
One day, he told me, "Dong-il, your acting really improved."
"Really? Thank you."
I think he still has a long way to go though.
- Of course. - He worked hard this time.
- You guys will be surprised when you watch the movie. - So you want us to watch it.
We don't know the title.
Jang-hoon, why are you blocking the camera?
- He's tactless like that. - He's tactless.
- What's wrong with you? How can you block it? - I'm sorry.
He's always misunderstood.
Got it. Hold on.
Ha-ra, I had pure love once.
But I became a gangster once you ignored it.
Hee-chul, don't block the camera, too.
(If you keep blocking me, I'll erase you from my notebook.)
You are great, but don't do that. You're the best.
("While no one is interested, Jang-hoon's team won!)
I congratulate you, but all of you are nothing but dogs and pigs anyways.
You guys will hang around her for a bit and eventually step away.
So is there any meaning to choosing a man for her now?
- Let's go, Ha-ra. - Okay.
- You said you'd give her to the winner. - Where are you going, Mr. Baek?
- Are you really going on? - What happens now?
- Is this a lie? - Bye!
Mr. Baek, can I take a photo with you?
Mr. Baek, that's the way to the cliff! You'll fall!
(What is he saying?)
("In one back alley of a university town...there
are many notices looking for new family members!")
(Ha-ra's Boarding House: Vacant Room)
(3 young (?) men appear from the alley.)
Why are you guys sighing? Do you have any worries?
I think this is the right place.
I think we'll waste the whole day looking for the boarding house. Where is it?
Where is the boarding house?
What are you saying? Go to the stable. That's your home. Why do you keep following us?
- What did you say? - And what's up with your clothes?
Me? I'm an aspiring celebrity.
- Is this your first time, second time, or third time? - First, of course.
But is this really the place where Ha-ra's Boarding House is?
It should be around here. Oh, it's right here!
This is it! "Ha-ra's Boarding House: Vacant Room"
There's a flier here. This must be the place.
All the guys in the nation are fighting to move in here!
Aren't you guys weird?
I'm from Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do.
- What's going on? - Is this Ha-ra's Boarding House?
(New men came to find the boarding house!)
- I'm about to die! - I'm from Hoengseong.
See the next case like this...
- Pyeongchang! - Why are there so many people coming here?
Go, you guys! Get out of here, all of you!
I called dibs on this boarding house!
Be quiet! I'm trying to study here!
Which one of you is the pig? The one on the right or you?
Sexy cutie pig! Ang!
Are you Nancy-dong?
- What are you saying? - I saw you on TV.
I know this place. I've wandered around this place a lot to study for my exam,
and the man of this house has a horrible temper.
- Really? - Why is that a problem?
Who are you? An evangelist?
We just need a room, that's all! Who cares about the owner?
I think I saw you in "The Wailing!"
- How did you know? - Your voice sounds familiar.
I'm from Gokseong, Jeolla-do.
Why are you guys being noisy in front of my gate?
- Why are you guys so noisy? - Huh?
- You're the owner of this house. - That's Ha-ra! Hi!
Is she the beautiful Ha-ra? She's not beautiful though...
You little brat!
You must be her father! I came to live in this house! Please accept me!
- Oh, really? - I'm begging you.
He's not annoying in this skit. He's annoying in real life.
I called dibs on this boarding house!
The people living on the first floor is going to complain.
You'll get noise complaint issues.
I called dibs!
If you accept him, he's going to raid your fridge!
Even the heirlooms I threw away in Nanji-do are better looking than you guys.
I'm mad!
What's your name?
I'm Ho-dong from Masan who is studying early childhood education.
He's studying early childhood education?
- You're really ugly. - You're scary!
- Are you planning to go with this concept every week? - Hey.
Did you guys all come here to live in our boarding house?
- Yes. - That's right.
Unfortunately, there's only one vacant room.
- It's mine! - It means only one of you can move in.
- My dad and I don't know who you guys are. - Right.
- So how about you guys introduce yourself first? - I'm sorry, but can I wash first?
- If you let me wash, I'll go. - You should go to the bathhouse. Why come here?
You're being troublesome.
Let's sit here and properly introduce ourselves.
The yard here is spacious.
(It's time for the 7 candidates to enter Ha-ra's
Boarding House to introduce themselves!)
- I'll introduce myself first. - All right. Go ahead.
I'm Seo Jang-hoon from Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do.
As you can see, I'm a student of physical education,
and if I move in, I'll take responsibility of safety.
His dialect sounds like he's from Ganggye.
If so much as a rat dares to come, I'll snap its legs in half!
Did you always have a strange pronunciation?
Before we came here, we had a boarding house at a different place.
Back then, a boy named Chil-bong dared covet my daughter.
- Isn't he a baseball player? - He's a clumsy baseball player.
- Do you have confidence to not fall for my daughter? - I do.
I'm sure you won't make the same mistake twice.
- I'm Min Kyung-hoon from Chuncheong-do. - You have a neat and tidy appearance.
- I could tell you hate hectic things. - I really despise them.
Once I go into a room, I don't come out until one year later.
I'm the stay-at-home type. I'll never cause you any trouble.
Are you from Gangwon-do or Chuncheong-do?
It's global nowadays.
You're very smart, sir!
I'm also taking a break and writing my novels, so I'm a man with brains.
- I wrote a book recently. Would you like to hear the title? - Sure, what is it?
"Pulling Your Pants Down on a Sleepless Night."
- Why would you pull your pants down on a sleepless night? - I like that song!
"I don't want to take off my sad pants." I love that song!
I wrote one more book. "Knowing Sisters-In-Law."
How embarrassing!
That's because you guys are thinking the wrong way.
- No, you're out. I heard his rumors. - What rumors?
- You throw out words without a care. - I won't throw Ha-ra.
- He said he won't throw her. - I'll make sure to embrace her.
See? He's like that. I can't trust him with my daughter.
He's throws better than I do with 3 pointers.
I really don't know about him.
Goodness. Let me introduce myself. Everyone else here is so tacky.
You should use the standard language in Seoul.
I know how to use standard language. All you need to do is raise the last word, right?
I'm Kim Young-chul, an aspiring idol.
As you can see, am I not dripping with the qualities of a celebrity?
The tiger looks like the celebrity, not you.
If you pick me, won't your house be a famous Hallyu attraction?
(Mixed feelings)
- I think you'll return to farming soon. - That's not true.
Rather than an idol, do I look like more of an actor?
Many people told me to do acting.
Just because I act doesn't mean anyone can.
- Poor tiger. I bet it wants to bite him real hard. - Sit down.
Rather than give my daughter to you, I'd hang myself!
Why would you say such sad words?
Let me see. Oh my goodness! There's a fly on you!
- Sir, it's not far. - What's not far?
Three more years, and I'll be getting my GED!
I'll definitely pass this time, and when I
graduate high school, I'll prepare for a job.
This is a book for the middle school exam.
I passed that last year.
- You should pick me because I'm very good at physiognomy. - Really?
While the other moms got paid for work, my mom danced with swords.
I'm amazing. With just one look, I can tell if they'll make it or not.
- Then look at our physiognomy. - I'm good at that.
With one look, I can tell you have a great physiognomy.
You succeeded with flying colors in your early days.
I can tell you'll have a child late.
- You're healthy! You'll be having a fourth child soon! - I got surgery.
- Excuse me? - I can't have kids anymore.
Seeing how you're so healthy, you must have read my novels!
I can definitely tell this one is gullible.
- This guy thinks he's all that because he writes novels... - Sit down!
- You're so noisy! Sir, I'm... - You have a neat appearance.
- I don't need Ha-ra or anything else! - Then?
Even if you give me 1/4 of a room, I can seriously live a happy life there.
Do you understand?
I'm asking you to give me a room!
Are you here to steal the room or ask for it?
It's been a while since I've seen a three-button suit.
With just 1/4 of a room, I don't need Ha-ra
- or anything else. - That used to be popular.
- What do you do for a living? - I'm a job applicant. I failed 12 times.
- This is my 13th try. - How old are you?
- How old are you? - How old are you?
I'm 45 years old.
There are many people who run away without paying
me, so you have to pay one year in advance.
If you let me borrow that money...
Me? Why?
If you lend me money and give me 1/4 of a room, I'll be happy.
- Why are you being so pathetic? - Sir, you shouldn't borrow money.
You shouldn't do this.
My dad said if you let someone borrow your money,
you'll lose both the money and the person.
You won't lose me. You'll just lose the money.
I'm Kim Hee-chul, an aspiring artist from Hoengseong, Gangwon-do.
He draws nudes. Only nudes.
I drew Ha-ra. When she smiles, her teeth are beautiful.
So I...
- I thought it was the real thing! - Right?
- I almost kissed it! - My goodness!
- I drew her. - He drew her well with just the special characteristics.
(Decalcomanie (?))
Let's say Ha-ra, Seol-hyun, Ha Yeon-soo, and I
fell in the water. Who will you save?
I'll save you!
(If he just gets a room, he'll be loyal!)
You're out. I like you.
I can save all four of you!
You can't even fall in the water.
I can grab two people in each of my arms and save them.
- He couldn't save his ex-girlfriend. - Just take care of yourself!
I'll go in there and drink all the water up!
- That's how I'll save them! - I acknowledge that.
Because I'm hungry...
You study early childhood education?
I'm studying early childhood education.
You should pick kind people to be boarders.
So pick me, pure Ho-dong who is nice and cute and loves children!
- How old are you? - I was born in '94, the year of the dog.
1894?
In order to live in the boarding house, I drew you.
"I will definitely get the boarding house!"
- It looks like him. - Draw me, please!
You really drew it well.
I look...um...I see...
Dad, is there someone you like here?
The most important thing is that since this is a group life, nuisance-
- Will not be tolerated. - Right.
If he sets an alarm to wake up early but sleeps in without
shutting it off, he'll end up waking up everyone else.
He can't even get up, but he ends up waking up everyone else!
Right. So we're going to do a test to find out who finds
- the alarm clock the best. - Who discovers it the best?
This is a complicated house.
On the count of three, you have to grab the book
with the cell phone that has the alarm clock in it.
It's a random game.
What if you get the book first but the stronger person takes it away?
Then you must get hit by the stronger one.
(Guilty for some reason)
- I accept that. - Of course.
- Isn't this a survival game? - It is.
Instead, if someone has it, you can't steal it away.
I'll have to risk my life to get in that house.
Wow! There are so many books!
Oh my goodness! These are my foods! The foods of my heart!
- They look delicious. - You eat paper, too?
- You eat paper, too? - Yes.
I'm going to gain weight!
- Let's turn our heads. - Yes, let's face the back.
We'll let you hear the alarm three times before we say go.
- Let's go for it after the sound stops. - Go random.
- Turn around. Turn around. - Don't turn around.
(The daughter and father carefully pick a book.)
(On the other hand, the waiting bros are...)
I'm going to kill you.
I want to fart, but I keep holding it in. I won't though.
Be quiet.
(While they're quarreling, Dong-il found a spot.)
(His teasing starts.)
- Let them hear it. - Be quiet.
(First attempt!)
- Turn around. Go after it turns off. - Be quiet
(Focusing)
Go!
(They chose the same book a the same time.)
(Squabbling)
- Trash! - I think this is pretty easy.
- Don't swap. - This is pretty easy.
I stole it with strength...
Just watch what happens to your image.
Just watch.
- Your image, man. You choked my neck. It was no joke. - I did not.
I'm sorry, but can you give me a different kind of candy? I have too many of these.
- I want the grape flavor ones. - I like these ones.
(Bartering to suit their tastes)
- You and I have the same thing. We have a black phone. - The latest model.
- Ha-ra, put more candies in here. Why only three? - I'm sorry.
I'll open mine.
(Surprised!)
(Why didn't I get it?)
- Let's go back more. - Let them hear it just once.
- Only once. - Go after it stops ringing.
Not yet!
(Bashing)
(He came out as soon as the alarm rang.)
- When it stops. - Let there be such thing as an elimination!
Nowadays, being eliminated is a very sad thing.
Let them hear it just once.
- Okay. Got it. - Go!
(Sang-min, Soo-geun, and Kyung-hoon picked the red book simultaneously.)
I pick this one.
(Soo-geun threw his body to get the red book!)
(Blank~)
(The competition has become more fierce.)
I pick this one.
Hey, that's mine!
- Don't! - How could you throw someone for three pieces of candy?
You dare throw me just for candy?
- Why are you getting so mad over that? - It's just candy!
Gosh, I pushed you slightly. You're one heck of an actor!
- Let's open them up now. - You guys were going crazy for this book.
Show us.
Ho-dong first.
- Jang-hoon took it. - I definitely won.
- Here I go. - Candy.
- Candy. - You tried to kill Kyung-hoon for candy.
- Darn it. - You got chocolate and candy. I just got chocolate.
(Hee-chul and Jang-hoon got chocolate, too.)
Please congratulate me. I got a new item!
(He got nuts!)
(All of them lost!)
(It's twice as funny to watch them after knowing they will never find it.)
- Where on earth is it? - I did a personality test on you guys. So inconsiderate.
- Please give him a warning for his Hollywood action! - Did not! You pushed me!
- Only a little bit! - Look here. I trusted you guys.
I checked your personality.
We talked about personality earlier. It's
- very important. - He has a bad personality!
You shouldn't joke like that.
We're not amateurs when it comes to shows, you know?
We tried our best, so you shouldn't trick us like that.
- No wonder it wasn't here. - He's one funny guy.
Don't go home right away after the show.
- It's going to be so much fun! - You guys are so inconsiderate of each other.
I definitely heard something over there.
- It was definitely there! - We didn't think about this.
Be careful this time.
- Don't pull such actions. - What do you mean? You pushed me!
- Your acting improved. - Oh, look! His fist!
Wow. Your acting greatly improved.
I should polish my fists into fists of flames or something.
No matter how much you polish them, you can't win against him.
- All right. This time, it's for real. - Just give me a reason.
Okay, my ribs hurt. Enough. I'm going to hide it.
I called dibs on Ha-ra's Boarding House.
I really hope you won't win.
I have no place to go.
Sir, how do we use the stairs to go up to the second floor?
(The stairs are one with the wall.)
This house was built 20 years ago, and it's still an ante room.
That's the vacant room.
You have to go up there and jump into your room.
Turn around. It will ring only once.
- Let's do this! - Let's go!
Go! Start!
Don't push! Don't! Gosh, that hurts!
Don't open it and just take it back.
- Jang-hoon first. - This was vague.
You guys are really inconsiderate.
Everyone has no clue and just fights dirtily.
I don't even like chocolate, but that's all I've been getting today.
- What's this? - A letter.
There's a letter in here.
Is it a chain letter?
(It was just a misplaced paper.)
It's a Bluetooth earphone.
I got it. You shouldn't check beforehand.
He got candy and nuts. It's a one plus one deal.
- I dropped the candy. - I have a good feeling about this, dad.
"Dad?" One, two, three.
(A real cell phone appears!)
That's yours!
It's not mine! Hello?
When did you put your phone in there?
(A while ago, Ho-dong grabbed any book.)
(He slyly put his hand in his pocket.)
(He secretly stuck the phone in there!)
(He tossed the candy in the book aside and got rid of the evidence!)
- I'm confident. - I think this kind of knack is useful in life.
- I played a trick. - Very good.
- There used to be candy in here. - Life is all about tricks.
Okay, I'll reveal mine.
Gosh, it's candy.
(Kyung-hoon failed, too!)
(The cell phone is still here.)
Is it this hard to get a boarder?
(The fourth attempt!)
This is enough. I got it.
- What are you doing? We can't start already. - It only rang once.
(They're just going to progress with it!)
- You get what you touch. - You can't feel it, Jang-hoon.
- That's right. You can't do that. - He's trying to feel up everything.
- I knew it! - What?
He's doing that on purpose.
(He scans the books as he pretends to crawl out!)
(Scan complete!)
What? What is he doing?
It's candy. You're out.
(Out without gaining anything from his trick)
- Soo-geun, you're out. - Kyung-hoon.
- Here. Darn it. - Out.
(Chocolate)
(Kyung-hoon, Jang-hoon, and Hee-chul are out.)
(Peek)
Oh, my. It was here.
(Young-chul found the cell phone!)
- As expected from an idol. - Hear the sound first.
He got it.
- Auntie? - Oh my god!
Is this the boarding house of Ha-ra, the prettiest girl in the world?
Yes, yes.
We'll give you three chances to get this right. Do you want to try it?
- Me? - Yes.
- You and Ha-ra can find it together. - Together? Okay.
- Just by listening, right? - Right.
Come here, Ha-ra.
I have farsightedness due to old age, but my ears are fine.
- You can experience how hard it is yourself. - It's really hard.
(The cell phone has been concealed in Ho-dong's front pocket.)
(Pretends nothing happened!)
(He folds the pages to thicken the books.)
(It's more difficult than before.)
- That's enough. - Where's the cell phone?
I put it in there. Ready? Turn around and look forward.
We'll play the sound now. Cue.
(Focusing)
We'll let you hear it five times.
(All eyes on him.)
We'll let you hear it five times.
(Discovered right away!)
- What the heck? - Hello?
(Bashing eyes)
It's not funny, and you couldn't even make it better!
- What's going on? - Done, right?
(No excuse to offer.)
I thought it'd be fun...
- He said he thought it'd be fun. - My intention was pure.
I wasn't trying to harm anyone.
Dad, did you decide who will board at our house?
Isn't it me?
People who were hurt by people need to be healed by people.
Okay.
Show them your kindness.
- Ha-ra chose two meaningful people. - How coincidental.
Those two have similarities.
- So they're double-divorcees? - Two-divorcees.
(Divorce + divorce/Two-divorcees!)
The one who will live in our boarding house with me is...
We get to live with you? Then we need to start over.
- It's over. You failed. - I thought we would just be housemates.
- Did you know we would live with her? - If I had, I would've worked harder.
Can you guys step closer to each other?
- They must be really nervous. - Jang-hoon is so obedient at times like this.
He doesn't say one word at all. When he's eliminated, he'll grumble and whine.
These are two lucky men.
If Jang-hoon doesn't get picked this time, he'll say,
"I never had any interest in you in the first place!"
If it's not me, it's over!
You're not really my style either.
I never had any interest in you from the beginning!
You're not my style!
I'm the coolest man in the world.
Oh, come on. I won't say that.
- Dad, I'm going to choose now. - Go ahead.
(Who will Ha-ra choose?)
- Dad, I'm going to choose now. - Go ahead.
(Who will Ha-ra choose?)
(She chooses job applicant Sang-min)
- What do I do? - Hey.
You. Hey!
- Hey! Hey! - Don't be like that to my Ha-ra.
Your Ha-ra?
Let me just say this.
You weren't my style from the beginning either.
(Their guess was right!)
- I didn't hear you. - You should've just eliminated me from the start!
You picked me for the final round. Are you playing around with me?
You're not my style either!
- Why did you pick Sang-min? - Yes, my daughter. Why?
He's old, but he's trying so hard to pay back his debt.
I felt so bad for him, so I chose him.
Okay, fine. The rest of us should go next door.
Seol-hyun's father opened up a boarding house next door.
- Let's go! - Let's go over there.
- Why are we here? - You're mean.
Please try to settle down! Stop roaming around!
Then...
Dad, since there's a boarder now, you won't be lonely anymore.
So as promised, can I move out and live on my own now?
- Yes. - What?
You two will live together from now on.
I found the most comfortable drinking buddy in the world. Let's go.
My goodness!
- Bye! - Be happy!
Sang-min, be careful on your way to the second floor.
Unpack your things and come downstairs.
- How...? - Use the stairs.
- Use the stairs! - There's no house!
Don't try to rip the stairs away. Just climb up.
(Soon Go Joon-hee and Jin Goo's preview will air.)
"Why did you do that to me? Tell me. Why did you do that to me?
"Oh, why did I do that?"
If you don't mess with us, we're not scary people, so let's get along.
After Lee Man-ki, it's Kang Ho-dong.
Woo Ji-won is good-looking.
Then you're implying Jang-hoon is ugly.
(He leaves the classroom because of anger!)
So annoying!
- You like bear-like men. - Yes! I go crazy!
(Is it me?)
- You can go crazy today. - You can get twice as crazy!
(Two bears are moving.)
(Oh, my!)
Kang Ho-dong.
(Her eyes can't leave him.)
Yes?
Come a little bit closer.
(She doesn't even hesitate to act cute!)
