(The good old days)
(My childhood and school days)
(No one told me to,)
(but I naturally made friends with them.)
(My friends)
(Maybe, being a grown-up means...)
(that I am buried in my hectic daily life,)
(and become trapped in someone's memory...)
(for a long time.)
(I wonder if I could...)
(see them once again.)
(It's time to take a look back at our old days...)
(with the smile we made when we met each other.)
(I've been curious about how my friend was doing.)
(Long time no see.)
(Happy Together will be with you...)
(at this moment you've been dreaming about.)
- We're always happy... - When we're with friends.
- Happy Together Friends. - Happy Together Friends.
- Hello, everyone. - Hello.
- Attention! - Yes.
Greet the friends.
- Hello. It's nice to meet you. - Hello.
"Happy Together 15th Anniversary Special".
Today, we'll reenact Happy Together Friends...
that aired after "The Metal Tray Karaoke"...
and was very popular for the two years it aired.
- Right. - It's been a very long time.
Eugene is here with us today.
Hello, everyone. It's nice to meet you.
Has it been 10 years?
I think so.
I hosted the first episode with you.
- That's right. - I hosted the show for two years.
I didn't know I would be back here...
after such a long time.
- Now both you and I are married, - That's right.
- and you have a beautiful daughter. - Yes.
- You're a mother of a child now. - Right.
We need these people on Friends.
Henry and Hyeon Gyeong have been...
appointed as class presidents for this special episode.
It's nice to meet you both.
- It's nice to meet you. - It's nice to meet you.
- I'm an important person today. - Why is that?
Everyone should listen to me.
It's not like that.
- Pardon? - That's not what you should do.
- A class president says, "Get up!" - You're wrong.
It's not like that. You shouldn't...
- You shouldn't treat them like that. - Is that so?
Henry, have you ever watched Friends before?
- I was too young when the show aired. - I see.
But I watched a few video clips.
I see.
I haven't met Henry before.
I haven't met Eugene before either.
- Both of you are from SM Entertainment. - Yes.
- Are you working with SM Entertainment? - Yes, I am.
- Attention! - Yes, ma'am!
Eugene, you were so scary.
- She startled me. - That was so sudden.
My old habit came back all of a sudden.
- I see. - Yes.
Hyeon Gyeong, do you remember Friends?
Friends was airing when I made my debut.
- I see. - I told myself I'd become successful...
and find my old friends here someday,
but even before I got a chance...
- the show was changed. - That's right.
- Two years later, - It's a shame.
- the show was changed. - Right.
A thought came across my mind, Eugene.
10 years ago, we didn't use social media...
- We didn't use social media. - Right.
Now we can find our old friends through social media.
That's right. We even have to see...
- those whom we don't want to see. - That's right.
There wasn't SNS back then,
but there was S.E.S.
(Henry is proud of himself.)
I'm sorry,
but please don't tap me like that while I'm talking.
Okay. I'm sorry.
(There wasn't a person like him 10 years ago.)
Okay. That was funny.
We're going to begin Happy Together Friends now.
The total number of the guests we invited to Friends...
was 209.
That's right. It's amazing.
Usually, we found 5 friends for 1 guest.
We found 1,045 friends in total.
That's amazing.
I'm curious about what happened after the show.
I met my friends from elementary school on Friends too.
I wonder if they keep in touch with their friends.
I remember that I met my old friends too.
- That's right. - I keep in touch with them.
- I see. - Yes.
"Happy Together 15th Anniversary Special".
Friends returns.
First, we're going to see...
the pictures of the two guests when they were young.
- Please show us. - Please show us.
- It's too obvious. - He looks so cute.
- It's obvious. - Anyone can recognize him.
He looks so smart and bright.
Let's see how this child grew up.
I don't want to meet this person somehow.
This child grew up and now he has a beard.
Our guest from Yeongdo Elementary School,
- please come out. - Please come out.
(He smiles greasily.)
It's Jun Hyun Moo.
- His smile is so cheesy. - Exactly.
As those who remember this show must know,
- our guests are in the Cuckoo Room. - Right.
Cuckoos pop out of the boxes in the front.
- That's right. - Myung Soo will...
stay with the guests in the Cuckoo Room.
Myung Soo, do you remember Friends?
Yes, I remember the show, but not my friends.
- I see. - Yes.
How are our guests doing in there?
I'm here with the guests...
who are here to find their old friends...
from their childhood with a hopeful heart.
I can see their hope.
- What does that mean? - I don't understand.
Our staff members...
went through a lot to find your friends.
- Right. - Why?
Usually, stars want to find their first love...
or opposite sex friends through Friends,
but Hyun Moo had already found his female friends.
Exactly.
If any female friends of Hyun Moo's are here,
I'm worried as he already found all pretty friends.
I'm worried about how his female friends here look.
Why are you saying that in the Cuckoo Room?
(Imitating a cuckoo)
Let's meet the child from Hwagok Elementary School.
- I think I know who he is. - Let me see.
You recognize him, don't you?
I recognized him as soon as I saw him.
- Please come out. - Please come out.
- Hello. - He grew up big.
He looks so cute.
He looks like his face is stretched from side to side.
(His neck has disappeared.)
We prepared pictures of him in middle and high school.
Shall we take a look? Please show us.
He looks okay until then.
What do you mean by that?
- How could you say that? - Which one is...
the picture of you in high school?
(It's hard to tell.)
I can't tell them apart.
We have a picture of him when he was 20 years old too.
- He changed a lot in one year. - Disco hairstyle.
What happened during that year?
- May I say something? - Put that away!
It looks as if he's a wanted man.
His picture looks like a composite sketch.
Hyun Moo, are you nervous?
Shall we see his middle and high school pictures?
Aren't those when he already became a grown-up?
No way.
Since then,
he hasn't aged so much.
(The Curious Case of Hyun Moo)
(Have you changed...)
(as much as I have?)
(Will I able to recognize my friend at once?)
We invited two special friends who will help...
Hyun Moo and Sae Ho recall old memories.
That's right. They went to the same elementary school,
but they kept in touch with Hyun Moo and Sae Ho.
- Okay. Please come out. - Please come out.
Hello.
- Welcome. - Goodness.
- The two friends are here. - Hello.
- Please give them a round of applause. - Welcome.
Please come this way.
How was Sae Ho at school?
As far as I remember,
he was like a mascot of the whole grade.
- Was he? - He must have been.
He was very popular and got along well with everyone.
I remember that he was well off.
Is that true, Sae Ho?
It's embarrassing to say this,
but I have to confess...
that I stole from my mom many times.
We'll get back to that later.
- Okay. - Your friends are eager to talk about you.
Let's hear from Hyun Moo's friend,
Ms. Jung Yeo Ju.
- Hello. - Hello.
I was in the same class as Hyun Moo...
in elementary and middle school,
and we both majored in English in high school.
I saw the most of his embarrassing moments.
- That's why I'm here today. - I'm glad you're here.
- That's why you're wearing a black dress. - Yes.
I hope you will reveal all of his dark past today.
- We can't see Yeo Ju's face in here. - Pardon?
We can't see her face.
- Of course, you can't see her. - I mean it's good.
- I have to tell you something. - We shouldn't see.
- Yeo Ju, please go on. - As Myung Soo said,
Hyun Moo found me when we were in college.
I'm not one of those friends he hasn't found yet.
He found me when I was a sophomore in college.
- That's why she's here. - Hyun Moo has found...
- He found only pretty girls. - all of his...
- pretty friends, and she's one of them. - Right.
Hyun Moo, you have found all the pretty friends,
- and Yeo Ju is one of them, right? - Is that true?
No, I found her for another reason.
You shouldn't do this to me.
Yeo Ju brought a picture of her with Hyun Moo...
- when they were in elementary school. - I see.
- Really? - Please show us.
- Yeo Ju, aren't you the one in the middle? - Yes.
- Yeo Ju. - Yes?
Usually, people bring a photo where they look good.
You must know how committed I am to this show now.
- Hyun Moo looks great in this photo. - Do I?
I think you shouldn't have brought that photo.
Why didn't you bring another photo where you look good?
I sent another photo, but I heard it wasn't necessary.
She's definitely his friend.
We filmed the schools...
our guests went to.
I'm sure Yeo Ju and Kyung Wan haven't seen...
their old schools for a while.
Hyun Moo, how long has it been since you graduated?
I graduated in 1990, so it's been 27 years.
How about you, Sae Ho?
- It's been 22 years. - That's a long time.
Yes, it's been a long time.
- Let's take a look. Please show us. - Okay.
- This is Hyun Moo's old school, right? - Yes.
(We're visiting Hyun Moo's old school.)
- It looks the same. - Yeongdo Elementary School.
(Is it different from how it was 27 years ago?)
Has it changed at all?
- Yeo Ju, what do you think? - It looks the same.
- It looks just the same. - Is that so?
- The school building seems sophisticated. - Indeed.
Hyun Moo, do you remember that building?
Yes. Right.
(Be brave, righteous, and wise.)
The stairs seemed so steep back then.
- I understand. - Do you remember?
- The inside of the building is the same. - Is it?
- Yes, it looks the same. - We used to bring them in.
Look at the floor.
(It's good to see the school as it was before.)
I was in Class 5 in 6th grade.
(The old memories of six years in elementary school...)
(are coming back to him.)
They still use chalk.
It says, "The person who made noise, Jun Hyun Moo".
I used to be the one who wrote things like that.
- That's a broom closet. - Even that looks the same.
- It's a broom closet. - Right.
The school bell sounds the same too. It's amazing.
Really?
(My old school hasn't changed at all.)
There's a new building next to the main one.
The building on the right side wasn't there.
Oh, my.
Hello.
I was the homeroom teacher of...
the great show host Hyun Moo.
I'm Kim Tae Hyun.
(Hyun Moo doesn't recognize his teacher right away.)
It's been about 30 years since he graduated.
- Oh, my. - However, when I think of...
how he was in elementary school,
- I think he hasn't changed a lot. - Exactly.
- Mr. Kim, we saw his picture. - To be honest,
I didn't know he would become such a big star.
- Mom. - Okay. Hold on a minute.
(His teacher is now a grandfather.)
Hyun Moo was pleasant, cheery,
and proactive back then.
He actively participated in every school events...
such as a school talent show.
He made other students laugh.
He also made the teachers laugh.
That's how I remember him.
It's true...
that Hyun Moo was quite playful.
However, he always smiled...
with his big, kind eyes.
So I think I didn't scold him so much,
but I don't know how he remembers me.
Hyun Moo.
It's so good to see you again...
through TV shows.
There was a show where stars found their old friends.
I saw the stars' teachers come on the show...
to tell the stories of the stars when they were kids.
Actually, I was envious of the teachers.
Finally, my dream came true.
I see you have busy work schedule.
I hope you take good care of your health.
Don't just enjoy dating many different girls.
I hope you meet a nice woman for your wife,
- He knows Hyun Moo so well. - and raise...
- a happy family. - He knows everything.
Hyun Moo, I love you.
(A mixture of feelings overwhelms him.)
I think Hyun Moo is touched.
- My goodness. - He looks touched.
It's been a long time. I should've visited him often.
How do you feel, Hyun Moo?
As Yeo Ju must remember,
- Mr. Kim was very kind. - He was, indeed.
He's a great teacher. It's hard to go on.
You saw your old school...
after 27 years. How do you feel?
I saw a new building. It might be a gym or dormitory.
- Other than that, it's the same. - I see.
I once got cast in front of my school...
- on the street. - For what TV show?
- It was "The Boy with a Braid". - Goodness.
Really?
Hyeon Gyeong prepared the next video.
I prepared the video of the way to Sae Ho's old school.
- Shall we watch it? - Let's watch.
- Look at the wall. It's cute. - It's cute, right?
There's a painting on the wall.
(Let's go along the wall with a painting on it.)
- I remember that. - Hwagok Elementary School.
- Hwagok Elementary School. - Do you remember?
Yes, I do.
(This is where he came so many times.)
Kyung Wan seems excited too.
- I haven't seen it for a long time. - That's right.
- Sae Ho's other friends here... - Kids are playing.
I remember that our schoolyard was very big.
There's a new building.
- It looks like a new building. - Yes, it's new.
- It's a newly built building. - Exactly.
This is where...
- That's the way to the school. - On your way,
- you buy some snacks... - My goodness!
It's still there! I'm more excited than Sae Ho.
(Sae Ho feels overwhelmed.)
- Sae Ho, do you remember this? - I remember that.
What is this place?
- It's a snack bar. - They sell tteokbokki.
(It's a snack bar in front of his school.)
- Everything is delicious. - It looks delicious.
It looks really delicious.
A snack bar in front of school is great.
There has to be a snack bar on the way to school.
- It reminds me of my old days. - Right?
We used to hang with friends in a snack bar like this.
I think Sae Ho was there whenever I went there.
Every time?
Hello.
I was Sae Ho's homeroom teacher when he was...
in 2nd grade in 1990. I'm Ha Gil Soon.
Hello.
(She was Sae Ho's homeroom teacher when he was 9.)
There was a group of teachers to help students go home.
As 2nd graders were too young to cross a 6-lane road,
we had to help them cross the road.
- Right. - Sae Ho never followed me from behind.
He walked next to me or in front of me...
walking backwards.
He wanted to tell me...
everything that happened on the day.
As he was nine years old, he lost a baby tooth,
and his lips were lifted a little.
It was hard to pronounce clearly, but he talked fast.
He didn't stop talking. He cut his friends off too.
He was a funny boy.
In Sae Ho's student record, you wrote,
"He has a quick learning ability,"
"but he lacks perseverance,"
"and he's often overly enthusiastic."
This is what I still remember about him.
In an art class,
I told the students to draw what they wanted to become.
Sae Ho had so many ideas of what he could become.
The other students were...
drawing what they wanted to become quietly,
but Sae Ho told me...
everything he wanted to become.
As he was running out of time, I told him to begin.
He ended up finishing without coloring it completely,
or he couldn't complete his work.
He was always...
very enthusiastic.
- Sae Ho is still very enthusiastic. - Sae Ho.
Cho Sae Ho.
Why didn't you come to my wedding?
(The icon of absence feels apologetic.)
It's been 27 years.
I heard you said that I was very pretty...
when I was your teacher.
Thank you so much for finding me.
When you meet a pretty and nice girl like Cao Lu,
never let her go.
I will attend your wedding. I wish you well.
Bye.
- That's great. - She seems so nice.
He looks so overwhelmed already.
Exactly. It's as if he already found his friends.
- Sae Ho, why did you cry so much? - Why did you cry?
In fact, I lived in Japan when I was little...
before I came to Korea.
I was an outcast in my class.
And...
Ms. Ha...
had the same voice.
I was just a little child, and she treated me...
with the kindest heart.
That memory made me emotional.
(He can't forget how grateful he was.)
Hyun Moo, is there a friend you want to meet?
- Who do you want to find? - The Three Little Pigs.
(He wants to find two friends.)
There was me, Lee Doo Jin,
- and... - Do you think he is here?
I think Doo Jin would be here. I was closer to him.
Please raise your hand if you are here.
Doo Jin looks a bit like an Indian.
Don't you look a bit like an Indian?
- He looks more Indian than me. - Really?
He looks like a local Indian.
- Does he? - Yes.
Before we meet the friends,
the class presidents have prepared something.
This is the fun part of Happy Together Friends.
I prepared their student records.
- Here we go. - It's going to be fun.
I didn't join because I didn't want to reveal mine.
- I have friends too. - In another program,
his school record was revealed.
Should I read it?
- It's... - Don't read mine.
- Okay. - Don't do it.
- It became a hit at the time. - Did it?
- His teachers were very honest. - Yes, indeed.
I'll read it to you.
"He pinpoints other people's faults."
(That was the comment of his first grade teacher.)
- It's just like him. - His teacher wrote this.
- Really? - His teacher actually wrote this.
"He's close-minded and rude. He doesn't act his age."
How can you expect so much from a sixth grader?
His abacus calculation teacher said this.
- What? - "He participates but has low intelligence."
"He participates but has low intelligence."
- Isn't that like a mean comment? - I know.
Mean comments are less mean than this.
This isn't made up, is it?
You know why I'm not looking for my teachers.
We didn't make it up.
It's on his school record.
- Hey. - This is a legendary one.
- It's legendary. - It is legendary.
But I still love all my teachers.
- Let's check Sae Ho's. - Let's see.
"Overall his learning ability is excellent,"
"but he's distracted and inconsistent that..."
"he makes mistakes and he's often too enthusiastic."
He was too enthusiastic.
It's similar to our producer's comment on Sae Ho.
He hasn't changed.
The producer and his teacher saw the same thing.
Let's take a look at the career goal section.
Sae Ho wanted to be an office worker.
Let's see what his parents wanted him to be.
Hello.
I am Sae Ho's father Cho Kyu Sung.
First of all, I'd like to thank...
King Yu Jae Seok.
(He's embarrassed.)
- Your father is not a congressman, is he? - No.
Because you've been taking good care of him,
he seems to be doing well.
- He likes doing that. - Don't mention it.
Please continue to take good care of him. Sae Ho,
learn from King Yu Jae Seok.
Your Majesty.
Is he running for the President?
Is he a Presidential candidate?
(His father's love touches him.)
Actually, because Sae Ho has...
a superb leadership,
I thought he'd become a politician.
I had an expectation.
I thought he'd join the politics,
so we intentionally didn't leave Hwagok-dong.
(They didn't move for Sae Ho.)
- He wanted you to run for a local office. - Yes.
But he ended up becoming a comedian.
So we moved.
Oh, dear.
He gave up and moved.
He looks like a politician.
This is Happy Together's 15th year special,
Happy Together Friends.
Let's bring out your precious childhood memories.
- We haven't said this in a long time. - It's nice.
- The Cuckoo Knows It! - The Cuckoo Knows It!
- The cuckoos are back. - Welcome back.
(Welcome, cuckoos.)
- Long time no see. - There they are.
It's nice to see you again.
It's been a long time.
(The cuckoos are back.)
We will say something about the two.
And his friends will vote if they agree with it.
And the cuckoo will cry as many times as the votes.
Please reveal the first one.
(My friend used to fall in love easily.)
"My friend used to fall in love easily."
- Fall in love easily. - We're asking if...
they easily fell in love with someone.
Hyeon Gyeong, how are they now?
I think they each deserve five votes.
She's expecting them to receive five votes each.
Let's ask Sae Ho's friend Do Kyung Wan.
- What do you think? - If he had more friends here,
he would've gotten 6 or 7 votes.
He would've gotten an infinite number of votes.
- Good thing five is the limit. - Thank goodness.
If he had 100 friends, he would've gotten 100 votes.
He falls in love so easily.
- I do too, but... - How many votes will you get?
I think I will get about three votes.
- Okay. - I fall in love quite easily,
- but not as easily as Sae Ho does. - Right.
- Let's check. - We haven't done this in a long time.
- The Cuckoo Knows It! - The Cuckoo Knows It!
- One is slow. - One, two, three,
- four, five. - Look at that.
(Hyun Moo got 5 votes, and Sae Ho got 3 votes.)
Did I get five votes?
You're lying.
- You got five votes. - My friends are...
(Our guess was right.)
Happy Together Friends came back after 10 years,
and we got our first five votes!
- Congratulations. - Go, Hyun Moo!
- It's fun. - They're just being naughty.
- You fall in love easily. - He got five votes.
- Hyun Moo guessed he'd get three votes. - Yes.
What do you think about the result?
- You got five votes. - My friends...
want to be funny.
They are exaggerating the fact.
- Is that right? - Here's why it doesn't make sense.
I only liked one girl.
- Did you? - Girls love guys like Henry...
who play violin for you and writes a letter to you.
- Girls love men like him. - That's right.
- We like sweet guys. - How was Hyun Moo?
But Hyun Moo...
cut our rubber band and ran away. He bullied girls...
and teased us with nicknames.
Girls used to cry because of him.
Did you cry a lot too?
- I... - I never made her cry.
- Hey. - We spent good times together.
- Let her talk. - We had a good time.
I didn't cry in front of Hyun Moo.
I had a big ego,
so I didn't cry in front of him.
But I still remember what he did.
When I walked past him,
he pulled my arm...
and made me fall towards him.
- What? - How?
Kids went crazy when that happened.
But he said he liked someone else.
He confessed his love to another girl.
He didn't. He just told me he liked someone else.
I told you. I was just throwing her down.
(He had no other intention.)
- I just threw you down. - He was a nasty child.
I just threw you to the ground.
- There was... - He was nasty.
another incident.
I really wanted to say this.
- He held me and made me lean backward. - Oh, my.
And our classmates teased us a lot.
They asked me if we were going out.
People must've...
- misunderstood. - He behaved really strangely.
But at the time, there was someone I liked.
He asked me if Hyun Moo and I were going out,
and I cried a lot when I went home.
- You were misunderstood. - Hyun Moo's denying it.
- He's saying he never liked her. - What is it?
- I have a proof. - What is it?
He has a proof.
- You are in trouble, Hyun Moo. - Ta-da.
- What is that? - It's her diary.
- It's my diary. - Is this her diary?
Everything is in there.
- What is it? Is it her diary? - It's her diary.
She wrote, "Jun Hyun Moo!"
"It turns out he likes me."
No way.
This is not a novel, is it?
- What's that? - It's like a novel.
I used to write quite well.
You used to write well.
"I didn't know that would come out of his mouth."
"Now I feel so apologetic."
"Hyun Moo saw me giving chocolate to Jae Hyeon."
"Perhaps I was too obsessed with Jae Hyeon..."
"that I treated the other friends too rudely."
- She was sure Hyun Moo liked her. - When I...
threw her, she thought I was doing it...
- out of affection. - Yes.
But Yeo Ju was known for making up things.
But she was a young girl.
How can you make her a liar...
because she said this?
- I'll see you after the shoot. - Can you...
bring the lie detector we used to use?
She seems to have become a bigger liar.
I don't know if I am right about saying this,
but both of them seem to be very egocentric.
Everything is about themselves.
They interpret everything in their favor.
How does she look?
I'm curious.
- Myung Soo. - She's pretty.
Why are you curious about that?
We can only hear her voice, so I am very curious.
When you two come out,
- she is going to leave. - Is that so?
Three of Sae Ho's friends...
- voted that he falls in love easily. - Right.
- Let's hear their testimonies. - Who wants to do it?
Sae Ho fell in love so easily.
- Is that right? - Whenever a new year started,
he knew all the pretty girls from each class.
He bought school supplies for them...
- and approached them. - Did I?
Other people thought he was just wasting energy...
on girls out of his league.
- Is that right? - He sounds like a swindler.
- He's your friend. - I am sorry.
He did that to pretty girls in every class,
and he got to my class.
He came to my class, and at the time,
Kim Du Ri and Bang Jeong Hyun were the prettiest.
- They were the pretty ones in the class. - Yes.
- He handed them the gifts. - Okay.
He asked Kyung Wan to give them breads too.
He did ask me to do it for him.
- Kyung Wan helped him. - Really?
Sae Ho was the class president of Class Nine.
I was the vice president of Class Six.
So Sae Ho must've thought I was below him.
- Rank wise. - He never even said hi to me,
- Goodness. - but one day, he came to our class...
and said to me, "You're from Class Six, aren't you?"
I told him that I was.
He gave me a soboru bread.
He gave his friends a lot of things.
He told me to give it to Du Ri and left.
When I think about it, I was just his assistant.
(He was Sae Ho's assistant.)
I'm sure I didn't just ask you to do that.
Du Ri and Jeong Hyun were the two...
prettiest girls in my class.
They were clearly out of his league.
But he still tried to hit on them.
Are you trying to become a freelance presenter?
You're trying too hard to be funny.
I wonder if Du Ri is here.
- Really? - Is Du Ri here?
(I am Kim Du Ri.)
Is Du Ri really here?
Was Sae Ho popular among girls?
Was he?
One time, our teacher told the girls...
to sit next to the boys they like.
Sae Ho looks like that now,
- but at the time... - Who are you?
- Why do you talk like that? - He said,
"He looks like that now, but..."
He's rather harsh to his own friend.
At the time, he was very active and popular.
Four girls chose him to be their seatmate.
One of the girls who didn't get chosen...
ended up crying.
- She cried because of Sae Ho. - Yes.
That was unexpected. Do you remember it, Sae Ho?
I remember it clearly.
- He has a selective memory. - He remembers this.
- Kyung Wan, you sound very upset. - I remember it.
He selects which memory to keep.
I remember it as if it happened just yesterday.
- That happened. - Today,
there's someone who use to have a crush on Sae Ho.
- Really? - Really?
(Hong Seol Hwa)
- It was a long time ago. - Let's talk to her.
- Right. - She's beautiful.
Is it wrong for someone to have a crush on me?
- I apologize. - You seem very shocked.
- I was just surprised. - Right.
It doesn't happen often.
I was reading an announcement at the back of the class.
Kids were gathered around it.
But he passed through them and came next to me.
He put his arm around my shoulders and looked at it.
- So? - When I looked, it was Sae Ho.
I was pleasantly surprised,
and I suspected if he liked me.
I didn't have a crush on him.
- What are you talking about? - Sae Ho...
I introduced her as someone...
- who had... - There's been a misunderstanding.
I said she used to have a crush on Sae Ho.
But she's saying she wasn't the one who liked him.
Sae Ho took the action first.
- Right. - And you were pleasantly surprised by it.
I think...
I liked it.
- That's all there was to it. - Yes.
- She didn't have a crush on him. - She didn't...
go home and only think about Sae Ho.
- And write love letters. - It wasn't like that.
- I've never done that. - You didn't write...
about Sae Ho in your diary, like Yeo Ju did.
Hyun Moo is the one who got five votes.
- Right. - But everyone is talking about...
Sae Ho right now.
- All right. - Now,
let's check the second one.
- Each story is... - I know.
- so interesting. - It's interesting.
Please reveal the second one.
Please reveal it.
"My friend was a troublemaker."
How many votes do you think you will get?
I don't think I'll get any vote.
- You think you will get no vote. - I never fought.
How about you, Sae Ho?
I think I was a troublemaker.
How many votes do you think you will get?
- I think I'll get four votes. - Four votes.
Okay. Let's check the result.
Let's check how many votes he got.
- The Cuckoo Knows It! - The Cuckoo Knows It!
One, two, three, four, five.
No way.
- This is nice. - No way.
Isn't Hyun Moo so thick-faced?
He's getting five votes for everything.
- My friends are ambitious. - You got five votes.
- What did I do? - He got five votes again,
but maybe you will talk about me more.
I'm sure they will.
- Let's hear from their friends. - Let's do that.
Let's hear from Sae Ho's friends first.
Let's talk about Sae Ho first.
Sae Ho is very competitive.
When we were in sixth grade, we played a basketball...
game 3 on 3. And we did it on the overhead ladder.
Our team ended up winning,
and Sae Ho lost his cool.
(He was angry.)
- Do children lose their cool too? - Yes.
He kept insisting that his team won.
You are Song Yoon Kyung, aren't you?
Yes.
- He recognized him. - He sounds like...
- Do you remember him? - He sounds like Yoon Kyung.
He said it correctly. There was no basketball post,
so we played basketball using the overhead ladder.
That day,
everything from the weather to my condition...
made me think that I could beat him.
There are days when you feel confident.
- And did you fight again in high school? - Did you?
I don't know what happened.
But I took him to the music room on the fifth floor.
When I said, "Hey!"
Sae Ho suddenly knelt down and said, "Forgive me."
It made me realize he knew what he did wrong,
and I calmed down immediately.
They were close but Sae Ho was afraid of him.
I will explain. I was the class vice president,
so I had to make kids keep quiet during the study hour.
But Yoon Kyung was so loud and naughty.
- So? - So I told him to be quiet.
- He was the bad one. - I thought he was...
going to listen to me.
But he must've had something against me.
He said, "Come here, Sae Ho."
Other classmates were watching,
so I said, "I'm not the person you used to know."
- You were in high school. - Right.
I thought he might hit me on the spot,
so I said to him first, "Hey, let's take it outside."
We went outside, and we were by ourselves.
- What happened? - And I was so scared.
So I told him we shouldn't fight...
- Right. - when we are good friends.
And then my feet must have slipped.
- Your knees gave in. - I don't think I knelt down.
Yoon Kyung was at fault.
- Do you remember this? - I don't remember.
(He knows how to be funny on TV.)
To me,
he was a really good friend.
And that's why we can talk about our fights.
It wasn't a bad memory to me. When he hit me,
- I... - Did you say it wasn't a bad memory?
- It wasn't a bad memory? - Was it a scary memory?
- Then... - I don't hope to see him later.
It was a good memory for me.
- Let's talk about Hyun Moo now. - Yes.
- He got five votes. - I don't remember.
Let's see what troubles he had made.
Yes, Sir.
At the time, we used to play dabanggu a lot...
- after school. - I remember that.
At one point, I saw Hyun Moo on the floor,
crying and looking for his mom.
Goodness.
He didn't fall. He was hit on his important part.
That's why he was on the floor and crying.
Suddenly,
Hyun Moo's mother appeared in the distance.
She asked the kid who hit him if he's Cho Bong Hyun.
Bong Hyun was famous for being big...
and scary.
So I told her that he was Choi Seong Ho.
Why does getting hit make me a troublemaker?
Isn't it my only fault that I got beaten?
- Do you remember it? - I still remember the pain.
- Eugene, - Yes?
he has a point.
- I just got hit. - Right.
He got hit in the important part and collapsed.
How does that make me a troublemaker?
(He is falsely accused.)
Did your friend Bong Hyun fight well?
- He fought well. - He can fight with my friend.
Let's make them fight.
They should fight without any safety gears.
– They want their friends to fight. - Let's do that.
I'd imagine Hyun Moo was bad at fighting.
He only fought with his mouth, didn't he?
- I only fought with my mouth. - Is that right?
It's not that he couldn't fight.
At the time, nobody fought in our town.
- That's what I remember. - You look...
like you would've fought a lot in your time.
That's how people thought of me.
- Nobody fought. - You didn't fight.
Hyun Moo didn't fight either. Hyun Moo's mother,
like what you've just heard, used to...
meddle with children's affairs a lot.
His mother used to meddle with the children's affairs.
Did his mother really do that?
So you mean my mother was a troublemaker.
She was the troublemaker of Mok-dong.
Was his mother the troublemaker?
Hyun Moo once did something really dangerous.
After science class,
- he splashed hydrochloric acid. - I remember.
- I remember that. - He spilled it,
and it splashed to his body.
- That's so dangerous. - It's very dangerous,
but thankfully, it was diluted a lot, so he was fine.
But I got really shocked at the time.
I saw him getting changed after the incident.
And his body was covered in hair.
How old were you?
- So... - How does that make me a troublemaker?
How does that make me a troublemaker?
He was a prodigy.
- How can I be... - Hyun Moo...
Was he an elementary school student?
How does that make him a troublemaker?
I was really shocked. We were in elementary school.
I had never seen a friend with body hair before that.
He was a hairy guy who spilled hydrochloric acid.
That makes him a troublemaker.
Stop it, Myung Soo.
You only interrupt to talk about these things.
What's wrong with it?
Perhaps the hair saved you.
- What are you saying? - You have a point, Eugene.
Do you remember that time, Hyun Moo?
I remember spilling the hydrochloric acid.
I still have...
- Really? - a really small scar on my belly.
- Do you have it? - Yes. A lot of hair grows there.
- What? - A lot of hair...
grows on the spot where he spilled...
- There's a lot of hair. - hydrochloric acid.
Please stop lying.
How can hairs grow on that spot?
It all depends on his physical constitution.
Hello. My name is Jung Hee Seok,
Hyun Moo's elementary school friend.
We were classmates in fifth grade.
Our assigned seats were next to each other's.
My friend, Hyun Moo was...
a fan of X-rated things.
- What did he say? - I knew it.
- Stop talking nonsense. - He was quite mature.
When I was young, I often visited his house.
One day, we were playing in his house with our friends.
He took out something from his dad's bookshelf.
It turned out to be an adult magazine.
That was my first time seeing such a thing.
After that, I went to his house more often.
When I did, Hyun Moo...
brought out the magazine and showed it to me.
As I think about this now,
I wonder where the magazine came from.
Hyun Moo, where did you get it?
I am not a fan of adult contents.
- I am not certain if I should share this. - Tell us.
Well...
(This is a bit awkward for me to tell you this.)
It was my dad's.
- Hyun Moo. - Well.
- I am aware you want to save yourself. - This is...
- How could you drag your dad into this? - I mean...
- I'm not saying he was a fan. - What do you mean?
By chance,
I found it in a cupboard.
That proves your dad was a fan of adult contents.
(He found it in a cupboard.)
My dad used to collect viewing stones.
I saw something strange between two stones,
- but... - It was between two stones?
Something was rolled up between the stones.
I wondered what it was.
When I was at home, I climbed a chair and took it out.
It was a Japanese magazine.
So I read the magazine...
and when it was time for my dad to come home,
I rolled it as it was and put it in the exact spot.
This is probably my dad's first time finding this out.
- It was a perfect crime. - I put it back as it was.
Don't you think he'd be surprised when he sees this?
- I can't let this happen. - Imagine...
his dad is watching it with his mom.
I am not certain if Hyun Moo will agree,
but among his classmates in sixth grade,
he had a reputation for liking such things.
I know this because my cousin was in his class.
- Really? - I see.
One day, my cousin came over to my house.
I ended up seeing a book that I hadn't seen...
my entire life.
I asked my cousin where he obtained this book.
We were in my room. No one was in the room except us,
but my cousin whispered.
"I got it from Hyun Moo."
I feel quite uncomfortable about this,
even if I wasn't involved and it was between them.
I'm sorry to butt in, but this is a special episode.
Was this how Happy Together Friends was hosted?
I thought the program was heartwarming.
What did you say?
Wasn't it a touching program where guests talked...
about their memories and heartwarming stories?
However, we're talking about...
hydrochloric acid and how he was hit.
Myung Soo, when you observe them,
doesn't it make you want to find your old friends?
This episode is making me not want to find my friends.
(It is making him not want to find his friends.)
- We will go to the next question. - All right.
- Please show us. - Please show us.
"My friend was a loyal friend."
(My friend was a loyal friend.)
What if no one presses the button all of a sudden now?
- It will be funny. - That won't happen.
That's right. We'll find it funny.
- Shall we check right away? - Shall we?
- Let's check. - I'm confident about this question.
- Here it goes. - I'll get at least four votes.
- The Cuckoo Knows It! - The Cuckoo Knows It!
- One. - There you go.
- Two. - Come out.
(Hyun Moo gets 1 vote and Sae Ho gets 3 votes.)
(He roots for the cuckoo, but...)
- I got three votes. - No way. My gosh.
(Something has gone wrong.)
Hyun Moo, up until now you always got five votes.
This time, you only got one vote.
Aren't you relieved at least you got one vote?
I don't know who you are, but I'd like to thank you.
Sae Ho received three votes.
- Right, I did. - Hyun Moo received one vote.
I was a loyal friend.
- Shall we start with Sae Ho's friends? - Shall we?
One of our elementary school friends' name...
is Lee Sung Kyu.
He was a transfer student...
- from Gangwon Province. - Lee Sung Kyu.
Sung Kyu wasn't an outcast, but he didn't get along...
with the classmates.
- Since he was new. - Right.
One day, Sae Ho was...
playing with his friends.
He called Sung Kyu to play with them.
When Sung Kyu came over to them,
Sae Ho said since Sung Kyu was their classmate,
he suggested that they should all play together.
Sae Ho was quite popular back then.
So other classmates listened to him.
- Sung Kyu became friends with them. - Right.
Sae Ho took care of Sung Kyu.
Sung Kyu's mother heard this story...
and she still feels grateful for it.
- She still feels grateful? - Yes, she does.
Sae Ho.
Perhaps, you did this because you were a transfer...
student as well. Do you remember this?
I remember it like it was yesterday.
- I knew it. - I can remember Sung Kyu's face,
the air, and the temperature at that time.
- He remembers the air and temperature. - He was...
- This is our first touching story... - Yes, it is.
- from their friends. - It is indeed.
I did that because...
I couldn't get along with my classmates.
- After I made a lot of friends, - I understand.
I tried to take good care of transfer students.
The transfer student from Gangwon Province, Sung Kyu...
still feels thankful for it. He couldn't...
- join us due to a personal matter. - Really?
I wonder if we could at least listen to his voice.
- What? - I asked the staff...
- to call him before the show. - There's a call?
- Sung Kyu. - Sae Ho.
- Long time no see. - They sound like real friends.
Long time no see.
- We haven't talked after high school. -That's right.
- I should've been there. - Exactly.
I had a personal matter.
- I'm sorry. - Ask him what he's doing.
What are you doing now?
I'm resting at home.
(I'm resting at home.)
(What a shocking twist.)
Sung Kyu doesn't make sense. He's resting at home.
(Everyone can't catch their breath.)
Why couldn't he have come?
- Hey. - Sung Kyu.
- If you are resting at home... - Sung Kyu.
Hold on.
You just said you had a personal matter.
- A personal matter? - What is this?
Actually, I am...
- This is funny. - What did you say?
- Sung Kyu. - I have a family get-together later.
- A family get-together? - A family get-together?
- In the evening? - Goodness. I'm tearing up.
This is too funny. He said it so nonchalantly.
I'm glad my friend is making sure I have some air time.
- This is really funny. - At that time,
we heard you were grateful to Sae Ho.
Sae Ho...
was cheerful and made his friends laugh a lot.
He was also very loyal.
Are you reading off a note you wrote down?
He does sound like he's reciting something.
People don't use the word, "cheerful" that often.
People say, "He was a funny guy."
Have you ever commented on...
online news about Sae Ho's appearance on TV?
When someone wrote a hateful comment,
I wrote that...
he wasn't what he seemed like.
Did you really write that comment?
When I did that, that person replied to my comment.
The person wrote, "Sae Ho, stop writing comments."
(Sae Ho, stop writing comments.)
(Sung Kyu turned into Sae Ho.)
- He's a good friend. - Thank you.
- He's helping you. - Sung Kyu is...
a true friend after all.
- He's rooting for Sae Ho. - What a loyal friend.
Why don't you two say goodbye to each other?
- Sung Kyu. - Sae Ho.
I will definitely ask the staff your number.
I will give you a call. Let's meet.
Let's do that. I'm available all the time.
You are available all the time?
Yes, I am.
- I guess today was an exception. - But not today.
- Sung Kyu. - You weren't free only today.
- This is fun. - Can he be around here somewhere?
- It's fun. - It's quite fun.
Is he calling from the waiting room?
- Anyway, thank you, Sung Kyu. - Thank you.
- Bye. - Thank you, Sung Kyu.
(Proud)
- We can't stop laughing today. - No, we can't.
After listening to his friends from his childhood,
I think he must've been kind.
Right. He still is.
- He can't be funny without being kind. - True.
How can he be mean and be funny?
- There are rare cases. - There are some exceptions.
Myung Soo is an exception.
- I was all alone. - I see.
Someone voted for the question that...
- he was a loyal friend. - Let's hear this.
- There will be only one story. - It will be.
Which one of you will be telling the story?
I remember Hyun Moo being mischievous until...
- middle school. - I see.
I just thought he was just playful.
There was a popular community website back then.
- I remember that. - Right.
He posted on our school community website that one...
of our classmates went missing.
He wrote the post to find that friend.
I also contacted any friends to find out.
I couldn't find him.
Later on, his body was found.
Someone had to identify the deceased.
The friend didn't have a father.
The friend's mother was physically not well.
During the night, Hyun Moo received the call.
Hyun Moo probably called other friends,
but at that late hour,
no one could go and identify the body.
He went there alone.
He identified the body and took care of the funeral.
It is a completely different side of him we see now.
He was truly loyal.
I was quite moved by his action.
That's what I think.
Did you know about this story, Yeo Ju?
I did. That friend was studying for a national exam.
After that, we lost contact.
Hyun Moo did call me when he went to identify the body.
Back then, I was young and scared.
I was terrified of identifying the body...
in case the deceased was really my friend.
I told him that I couldn't bring myself to go there.
I think it was near Yanghwa Bridge.
He got a taxi and went there all by himself.
He identified the body and arranged the funeral.
So I went to the funeral.
When we were drinking together,
he cried a lot.
I remember what Hyun Moo said.
He said he didn't have any idea that the friend was...
struggling even though they were close.
The fact that Hyun Moo was in the dark...
about the struggle broke his heart.
So he cried quite a lot.
There was a reason I was close to him...
although he could be annoying.
- Hyun Moo is warmhearted. - He's kindhearted.
He fools around a lot, but he is kindhearted.
- You know that he's quite successful now. - Right.
He can't be successful if he's only mean.
You are right.
Hyun Moo, do you remember when this happened?
I remember. We were really close.
The friend was really smart...
and was following the perfect academic path.
I suppose there was a lot of pressure.
I wrote that post and went to the police station.
When I heard the news, I was in a state of shock.
I was terrified, but I went there to identify the body.
I remember going all the way to the cemetery as well.
Even though it was only one vote,
- it greatly showed his loyalty. - I agree.
I don't remember Sae Ho's stories about his loyalty.
Is there another story for me?
- No, there isn't. - There isn't?
- We're wrapping up. - We are?
We're done listening to all of their childhood stories.
Now it's time for them...
- to meet their friends. - You must be nervous.
- It's starting. - We'll call them in.
Are we calling them in at last?
- Let's Play, My Friend. - Let's Play, My Friend.
Please come on out. Let us invite them in.
At last!
(They are now standing in front of their friends.)
- Welcome. - Nice to see you.
(Long time no see.)
- Myung Soo's coming as well. - Hello.
- Hello. - Welcome.
Please come this way.
(Nervous)
Right now...
Hyun Moo's eyes have already become pop-eyed.
I see.
The problem is there's no friend of mine.
(There's no friend of yours?)
Really?
I don't recognize a single friend.
- You don't recognize even one? - No.
- How about you, Sae Ho? - Do you recognize them?
He must have found one already.
Have you recognized your friend?
(He must have found one.)
- By the way... - By the way...
- What is it? - Hold on.
Why have my friends gained weight?
(Why have my friends gained weight?)
(Oh, my friend)
Anyone can spot Sae Ho's friends.
Everyone can be certain they are Sae Ho's friends.
When we allocated both of your friends,
- we mixed their seats. - Really?
Your friends are on both sides.
- Even if we did, there's an age gap. - No way.
Let me apologize in advance.
(He apologizes beforehand.)
I really can't recognize you guys.
You will have a small get-together after you find them.
Will I have a get-together with these strangers?
I don't know them.
- I don't recognize them. - You should...
have it with Sae Ho's friends. It might be better.
- The time limit... - The time limit is one minute.
It will be one minute per friend.
You will have five chances.
When you find your friend, say, "Long time no see".
If it's your friend, your friend will say the same.
If it's not your friend,
the person will say, "It's nice to meet you."
You will say, "Long time no see" carefully...
thinking of your memory,
- but if it's not your friend, it's awkward. - Right.
- You'll experience it. - That means...
only 10 people are their friends and the rest...
- are strangers? - That's exactly right.
Only 10 people are our friends.
You each have five friends.
This guy keeps giving me a friendly look.
- He does. - It's this guy.
Do we know each other?
He keeps looking at me.
Some of them will act as if they are...
our friends.
- They are all great method-actors. - I see.
- "I'm his friend." - You have to spot those people.
- Really? - We can tell...
some people are real friends because...
they make sure they don't ever look this way.
(Friends don't look at their friends.)
I think that's not really necessary.
Some people don't look at their friends.
- Anyway, - This is fun.
we will start with Hyun Moo.
- Shall we? - Sae Ho. Take a seat for now.
- All right. - Please sit.
- Now. - Now Hyun Moo,
please begin.
- Why is he staring at me? - The return of Friends.
- Please begin. - You can go closer.
- He might be your friend. - I'll find a friend...
- I'm certain of. - You have a minute.
- I have a minute? - Yes.
- Try him first. - One minute per friend.
- I am certain he's my friend. - Where is he?
(Are you really certain?)
- You look better now. - "You look better now."
Your nickname was Rubber Shoes.
It's because Cho Moo Shin, your name rhymes with it.
Moo Shin, long time no see.
"Long time no see."
(My friend)
- Is he Hyun Moo's friend? - I think he is.
- I'm certain. - He can get up and say that he's not.
(He bows down?)
Long time no see.
(Long time no see.)
- My gosh. - You haven't changed.
- You said you didn't recognize even one. - How...
When I looked at them, I was certain he was my friend.
I didn't look at him on purpose.
I was surprised that you bowed down.
- So was I. - You said you were his friend earlier.
- Please come to the front. - Please come this way.
(Cho Moo Shin, Hyun Moo's elementary school friend)
- Cho Moo Shin is your friend. - Cho Moo Shin.
His nickname was Rubber Shoes.
Now I am in trouble.
I heard you traveled quite far in order to...
- meet Hyun Moo here today. - I did.
I came from Jinju in South Gyeongsang Province.
- How many hours did it take you? - Five hours.
- You came from afar. - I did.
- You live in Jinju? - I do now.
My parents live in Seoul, but my in-laws live in Jinju.
- I have three children. - Gosh.
My mother-in-law wanted to help out.
What kind of a friend was Moo Shin to you, Hyun Moo?
Well, he was...
I don't remember much about him.
He's the only friend you recognized. If you don't...
- remember about him, - I remember his nickname.
what will you remember about the rest of your friends?
I only remember teasing him about his nickname.
He was intelligent.
He was brilliant,
but his grades weren't as good as his intelligence.
Really? All right. Nice to meet you, Moo Shin.
- He's Hyun Moo's first friend. - Nice to meet you.
Please come this way.
(As an adult, he meets a friend with whom he grew up.)
- First of all, he found Moo Shin. - Wait.
(Laughing)
What is it?
I found another one.
You did?
- Which one is it? - Why don't you begin now?
You are amazing.
You said you didn't recognize anyone.
Now I see my friend.
His facial expression hasn't changed.
Don't look away.
Three Little Pigs. Look at this guy.
Was he one of them?
Please begin.
My goodness.
I didn't recognize him at first, but he looks the same.
- If Hyun Moo is wrong... - I think he's right.
You lost a lot of weight.
He did?
Doo Jin.
You don't look so cheesy anymore. You used to though.
How long has it been?
Long time no see.
(My friend)
- Three Little Pigs. - "Long time no see."
Long time no see.
(Long time no see.)
You found another friend.
- He was Hyun Moo's friend. - It's been so long.
(Lee Doo Jin, Hyun Moo's elementary school friend)
- He's name is Doo Jin. - I can't believe this.
You lost a lot of weight.
When Hyun Moo was in Cuckoo's Room,
he said you were one of his friends he wanted to find.
How did you feel then?
I felt great. To be frank,
- this program used to air a long time ago. - Right.
I always said to my wife that...
if there was a program like this again,
he will find me for certain. That's what I told her.
My wife said he wouldn't find me,
but he'd rather find a girl.
My reputation has been tarnished.
- It's a mess. - You're single.
I guess that's the public opinion of you.
How many years has it been?
It's been 25 years.
This is the first time seeing him...
after the second year of middle school.
- I haven't met him since then. - Thank you, Doo Jin,
Hyun Moo's second friend. Please take a seat.
(May Three Little Pigs live forever)
- You're doing better than we thought. - Exactly.
- My trouble begins now. - It does?
- Let's see if you can find another friend. - Look...
- for a girl. - One minute.
- I don't think there are any girls. - Please begin.
There are none?
It's about time a female friend of mine to turn up.
Well, we can't tell you that.
All the ladies here are beautiful.
I do feel like I've seen her somewhere,
but I don't know where I saw her.
(Time is running out.)
- You only have one minute. - This is frustrating.
(He feels sad.)
Are you Hong Ok? How many seconds do I have left?
- You have 10 seconds. - Now,
we will start the countdown from 10 seconds.
- In 10... - Pick number 6.
(He's in a hurry.)
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
(My friend)
He's the one who stared at Hyun Moo.
- Hyun Moo gave into his eyes. - We studied together.
We had private tutoring together?
(Can you recognize me now?)
(Can Hyun Mo remember his friend?)
(Is he Hyun Moo's real friend?)
(He seems to have a faint memory.)
- First of all... - It's nice to meet you.
He wasn't Hyun Moo's friend.
(Hyun Moo fell for his method-acting.)
- How could you? - It's just...
I was in a rush. I didn't recognize anyone.
Even if you were in a hurry, how could you pick him?
He kept looking at me.
- We told you to be careful about that. - Well.
Why don't you begin right away?
- Please begin. - Please begin.
(Hopefully, he can find a friend this time.)
I see two familiar faces.
This person keeps giving me the look.
(I've been constantly watching you.)
(He takes a wrong step.)
I'm sorry.
I think they resemble each other.
- There were faces like his in Mok-dong. - They do?
(His face is the face of Mok-dong.)
Please say, "It's good to see you, my friend."
My number was 13. I had a friend with a heavy build...
whose number was 14.
(Nodding)
It's you, right?
Aren't you Lim Seung Hyun?
- Please say, "Long time no see." - You have to...
- say "Long time no see." - Otherwise, it's invalid.
- Please say, "Long time no see." - Long time no see.
(You are my friend.)
(Aren't you number 14, Lim Seung Hyun?)
It's nice to meet you.
(It's nice to meet you.)
- He has no clue. - He even had a name.
Isn't he Lim Seung Hyun?
There are 10 such faces per block in Mok-dong.
- This is unexpected. - My goodness.
- Only one chance remains. - One chance.
Hyun Moo, you haven't come to this side once.
- They are strangers. - Gather your thoughts first.
Stop moving to places like a zombie.
- This is the last chance. - This is the last chance.
Their faces haven't changed since elementary school.
- Really? Yeo Ju recognizes them. - It's frustrating.
This is your last chance in Round One.
Hyun Moo, begin.
Begin.
(Hyun Moo, good luck.)
There aren't many women.
Please look around carefully.
What she said could be a hint.
This is exactly like Happy Together Friends.
(Do I go here or there?)
You don't have much time.
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
(You are my friend.)
- He did it. - I think it's you.
- Give her the microphone. - It's her. She is shy.
- I think it's you. - Did you remember something?
You were very tall.
That's right. Look at the way she smiles.
- Are you his friend? - It's you. Long time no see.
Long time no see.
(You were a tall girl with a pretty smile.)
- Are you his friend? - It's you. Long time no see.
It's nice to meet you.
(It's nice to meet you.)
(Hyun Moo made a record.)
(He is the worst at finding his friends.)
(Shocked)
(Why must I suffer such an ordeal?)
(They got goosebumps.)
(The onlookers are embarrassed for him.)
This is embarrassing.
I thought he was right because she is tall.
- I can't believe it. - She is a good actress.
There was a girl who fit my description, Kim Ji Hye.
He went to his ideal type.
She is the type of a woman Hyun Moo used to like.
Yeo Ju tells us that she is the type of woman...
Hyun Moo used to like.
(He is mortified.)
He only found two friends.
His chances are gone.
They look exactly the same.
Thus, his three friends...
- will go on a conveyor belt. - That's right.
They will go on it.
I have a face blindness.
Don't lie.
Don't be ridiculous.
I always think I am meeting the scriptwriters...
- for the first time. - Don't be ridiculous.
You don't have a face blindness.
Please be understanding of my confusion.
Hyun Moo, please sit back down.
- It's time to find Sae Ho's friends. - Sit.
- Don't tell him who his friends are. - Okay.
- Sae Ho. - He will begin.
- Please begin. - Begin.
He is relaxed.
He isn't nervous.
I really wanted to find this friend,
but he never came to reunions because he was busy.
I really wanted to know how he was doing.
- Are you giving a speech? - I am serious.
- Hurry up. - I really...
Why are you giving a speech?
- Find your friends. - You gained a lot of weight.
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
(You are my friend.)
(Will he be Sae Ho's friend?)
Long time no see.
(Teary-eyed)
- Fight, fight. - Don't cry.
He was a fighter.
They were best friends.
Both Sae Ho and his friend are teary-eyed.
(They are teary-eyed.)
Why are you crying?
I missed him very much.
Our paths never crossed. I even asked around.
My emotions suddenly welled up.
(His friend's emotions welled up as well.)
Did you recognize your friend right away?
It was impossible not to recognize him.
His face caught my attention.
You gained weight.
- I am over 100kg. - How did that happen?
I'm always sitting in the office.
Yoon Kyung, what came to your mind when you saw Sae Ho?
I noticed that his nostrils were flaring.
(His nostrils were nervous.)
How do you feel when you look at Sae Ho?
- I am proud of him. - I see.
All right.
He is Sae Ho's first friend, Song Yoon Kyung.
(Sae Ho's first friend gave a touching moment.)
It's time to find your second friend.
He will cry a lot today.
I wondered earlier...
why all of my friends have gained weight.
(He spotted a friend.)
You didn't remove the mole on your forehead.
(The mole is clear on his forehead.)
I am not the one to speak,
but you have changed for the worse.
Sae Ho is confident.
- Long time no see. - He could be wrong.
He could be wrong.
(Is he Sae Ho's friend?)
Long time no see.
He is a friend with a mole.
(I missed your mole.)
He is the only one with a mole on his forehead.
It's a distinct characteristic.
(Seong Sang Pil is a friend from elementary school.)
- He was close to Sae Ho. - That's right.
Sae Ho said that he wants to see you.
How does it feel to see him again?
My house collapsed when I was in high school.
Since then, I couldn't see my friends.
Among friends I lost touch with, Sae Ho was the one...
I missed the most.
I missed his mole.
In order not to get picked on for his mole,
he told us that his mole will travel upwards.
I see that it stayed at the same spot.
Please plant a light kiss on your friend's mole.
May I do that?
Of course you may. It's a sign of joy.
- I want to do that. - Kiss your friend's mole.
- Kiss your friend's mole. - He stayed over...
at my house very often.
Long time no see.
(Kiss)
(Their friendship remained the same like a mole.)
- Please find your third friend. - Please begin.
Do you recognize all of them?
This friend is the last one I am sure about.
- I am jealous. - Through Kyung Wan,
I gave bread to this friend.
Let's hear the truth.
- Did I like this friend? - Did you like each other?
Nothing has changed.
- Does she look the same? - Nothing has changed.
(He walks over with a fluttering heart.)
(He finally found...)
(a male friend.)
- Is he Du Ri? - You shouldn't be so surprised.
I might have liked a guy.
You haven't changed at all.
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
Could she be Du Ri?
Long time no see.
(He welcomes his friend with a bright smile.)
In elementary school, Sae Ho gave her bread...
- through Kyung Wan. - He gave her bread.
Du Ri said she liked someone else at that time.
She is beautiful.
She was one of the most popular girls in school.
- That's right. - Are you married?
- Yes, I am. - Really?
How long ago did you get married?
I have a seven-year-old.
Really?
Did you have feelings for her? Why are you surprised?
It's not that.
Congratulations.
(He speaks politely.)
You stopped addressing her like your friend.
Sae Ho said...
he wants to find his other half today.
- Does your husband know he is your friend? - Yes.
What did he say?
"Good for you."
It's a soulless comment.
"Good for you."
I was happy to see Sae Ho on TV.
I hope to see him more often...
on other programs.
To be honest,
I often dreamed of returning to sixth grade.
Those days were full of happiness and joy.
I feel like I have returned to the past.
I am very happy.
- Please give Du Ri a big hand. - Thank you.
All right.
(His friend brought memories of a puppy love.)
- Two friends remain, right? - Yes.
I heard there is a female friend from my homeroom.
She apparently had feelings for you.
I made her heart flutter.
When you put your hand on her shoulder,
- her heart fluttered. - That's right.
All right. Please begin.
You should put your hand on women's shoulders.
Here is your microphone.
Find a woman who gets surprised when you do that.
- Sae Ho isn't certain anymore. - It can be hard.
Sae Ho, please walk faster. You are short.
Why can't I remember a friend from my homeroom?
(He is frustrated.)
You would be Einstein if you remember.
Sae Ho and I are tied, right?
- We are tied, right? - Sae Ho found one more friend.
- He found three friends. - Can't you count?
You aren't one of my friends.
My friend!
- My friend! - You aren't one of my friends.
- You don't have much time. - Please hurry.
Sae Ho.
Hurry up.
(He made his decision.)
I think she looks familiar.
You chose a pretty woman, didn't you?
That's not what it is. She looks familiar.
- Say, "Long time no see." - "Long time no see."
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
(You are my friend.)
(Will he find his friend four times in a row?)
Who is she?
It's nice to meet you.
I am sorry.
(Embarrassed)
- This is how it feels. - One person...
We know who his friend is. She clapped sadly.
(His friend clapped sadly.)
- This is your last chance. - The last chance.
Begin.
There is someone who I think might be my friend.
It would be a grave mistake if I get it wrong.
- It's okay. - Hyun Moo made countless mistakes.
It's okay to make a mistake once.
I think she is Hong Seon Hwa.
Hong Seon Hwa?
Hong Seon Hwa.
What are you talking about?
You are being rude.
Don't check her name.
I was going to go to her.
"I was going to go to her."
(Their friends clash.)
I thought she might be my friend.
- Is she your friend? - I had my eyes on her.
- Really? - Yes.
Hurry up.
(He doesn't give up.)
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
- I don't think it's her. - Give her a microphone.
She isn't his friend.
Long time no see.
- What? - Long time no see.
"Long time no see."
(You are my friend, right?)
You are Hong Seon Hwa, right?
Didn't we have a classmate who looks like her?
- Good job. - Hong Seon Hwa.
Please give her a microphone.
Hyun Moo, you should thank Sae Ho.
- She is my friend. - Seol Hwa,
why did you become teary-eyed?
(She broke out in tears upon seeing Sae Ho.)
- My goodness. - It has been a while.
- My goodness. - She must be happy to see him.
Seeing a friend after a long time...
(She is happy to meet him after a long time.)
- Sae Ho, say something. - You didn't recognize me.
- Give her a hug. - Don't be upset.
I thought it was you.
However, since you were staring,
I played a prank like in the old days.
I remember her name.
You sat with Kwon Moon Su.
I sat with Kim Sang Yeop.
His memory is incorrect.
- She is annoyed. - You sat with Sang Yeop.
- Do you mean your manager, Sang Yeop? - Yes.
Wait a minute. Where is Sang Yeop?
They sat next to each other in elementary school.
- That's right. - There he comes.
Run.
They sat next to each other.
She is the one who sat next to you, Seol Hwa.
(The friends who sat to each other meet.)
My goodness.
You should shake hands.
- My goodness. - Why do they look so awkward?
His picture is showing.
(Only his body grew.)
- He looks cute. - He looks the same.
- He looks cute. - His face looks the same.
His face hasn't changed at all.
Seol Hwa,
what was Sang Yeop like?
Sang Yeop.
(Calling his name is enough to make her laugh.)
I was surprised to hear that he became a manager.
He wasn't very smart.
What was that?
- What was that? - "He wasn't very smart."
(She makes a blunt comment.)
How does it feel to see her again? I am curious.
Since too many years have passed, I don't feel much.
- Please leave. - For goodness' sake.
Go and get me more work.
- Get Sae Ho more work. - Please give him a big hand.
(They still like to make fun of each other.)
Seol Hwa, what was Sae Ho like?
He was well-mannered...
and kindhearted.
He had leadership.
I have good memories of him.
- Did you get married? - Yes.
Why do you keep asking them if they got married?
- Why do you keep asking that? - Say you are single.
Then I would have said Sang Yeop is single too.
Sang Yeop is single too.
Seol Hwa traveled a long way...
to meet Sae Ho.
I came from Suncheon, South Jeolla Province.
She came a long way.
I heard that you work...
in the makeup industry.
Yes, I have a makeup shop in Suncheon.
- Saturday must be a busy day. - I know.
Aren't you busy on Saturdays because of weddings?
Yes, Saturday is a busy day.
- I took a big loss. - Is that right?
Is that why you shed tears?
It's good to see you on TV.
I am happy to see you in real life.
I hope to see you more often on TV.
I am happy that you became successful.
Thank you.
(His friend remained the same like a memory.)
Since this is Happy Together Friends,
- we must see "Rails of Memory". - That's right.
- We have reached this segment... - That's right.
to find hidden friends.
Friends will come out on rails.
If you think it's your friend,
- press the button. - Okay.
Then you will go up there and say, "Long time no see."
Your friends on the rails will be disappointed.
It wouldn't be so bad if he recognizes them.
If he still doesn't recognize them,
- it will be sad. - They will pass by.
That's right.
We don't exactly know who will come out,
but they will talk about past memories.
- Really? - They will appeal to you.
- Hyun Moo needs to find three friends... - Right.
while Sae Ho needs to find one friend.
A total of seven people will pass by.
It's good that I only have one friend to find.
Hyun Moo has three friends to find.
- His heart must be heavy. - I hope I find one.
By chance, I heard the three friends...
cursing Hyun Moo.
(Shame on you, Hyun Moo.)
I am not surprised.
Round Two starts now.
Friends will come out on rails.
This is nerve-racking.
All right. In 1, 2, 3.
- Please come on out. - Please come on out.
I ignore the ones who isn't my friend, right?
He is recommended by the class president.
- The class president. - Take a good look.
On what grade did you share homeroom with Sae Ho?
Sae Ho, we were in class 4 in 2nd grade together.
- It's me, Kim Pyeong. - Kim Pyeong.
- Don't you remember me? - He is recommended.
You didn't look at me since everyone gained weight.
- He is your friend. - Did I lose too much weight?
Press the button.
- He lost weight. - He is too soft to be my friend.
I came all the way here to see you.
- He is too soft to be my friend. - Bye.
- Bye. - Bye.
Oh, no.
My friends have distinct characters.
- He isn't your friend. - No, he isn't.
- All right. - Let's see the next one.
- Who will it be? - Sae Ho, it's me.
Who will it be?
Sae Ho, it's me. Lee Yong Kyu. Don't you remember me?
We used to play basketball together.
You remember Lee Ji Young, right?
- Yes. - You remember her, right?
The three of us used to play together.
Dig up your memory.
- Don't you know who I am? - He looks like Sae Ho.
- Seriously. - We look the same.
He looks like Sae Ho's brother.
He looks exactly like Sae Ho.
- What was your name? - Lee Yong Kyu.
You know me.
He pressed the button.
- Is he a friend? - Is he a friend?
- Sae Ho pressed the button. - I told you...
my friends have distinct characters.
- Is he your friend? - Yes.
Could he be Sae Ho's last friend?
You haven't changed at all.
Long time no see.
(You are my friend.)
Long time no see.
(Long time no see.)
(I am sorry it took me a while.)
He found his friend.
What should I do? This is a disaster.
(Lee Yong Kyu is a friend who resembles Sae Ho.)
He finally found his fifth friend.
- He is crying. - The two of you...
- are very similar. - That's right.
We had similar height when we were young.
We also had the same interest in clothes.
Were you sad that he didn't find you in Round One?
- I wasn't sad. - Really?
I knew he would find me in the end.
(Sae Ho's friend believed in him.)
- I think he saved me for the last. - I see.
Your face and style...
became very interesting.
(His friend has a distinct character.)
Your style tells me that...
you must be in an extraordinary profession.
It looks like you are in the fashion industry.
I currently run...
- a small cooperative union. - Really?
I am an executive director of the union.
You are dressed like the head of the department.
In Round Two,
Sae Ho found his last friend, Yong Kyu.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
(Sae Ho's friends gathered around.)
Hyun Moo needs to find three friends.
- Hyun Moo. - There are ones I am unsure about.
- People here won't be up there, right? - Right.
(It's over for them.)
The ones I am unsure about are here.
What?
- Don't make new friends. - They aren't my friends?
- No, they aren't. - They are strangers.
This is bad.
Will Hyun Moo find his friends? The first one.
Please come on out.
Come on.
- He is your friend. - Hyun Moo.
- Look at his eyes. - Hyun Moo, I am sorry.
The class president recommends him.
I am sorry I didn't invite you that time.
- He didn't invite you. - What was your name?
- Nam Jae Sik. - Nam Jae Sik.
My goodness.
Wait a minute.
Nam Jae Sik.
He watched porn with you.
Don't say that.
- Henry? - Am I wrong?
What are you talking about?
He watched porn with you.
Don't say that.
- Henry, don't say that. - I am sure he is my friend.
- Nam Jae Sik. - The R-rated friends.
- Long time no see. - "Long time no see."
He could be wrong.
(Tilting his head)
- I am sure. - Long time no see.
Nam Jae Sik.
(Hearing the name made him remember his friend.)
Henry, your recommendation was nice.
That's right.
I remember that he fought very well.
- Really? - Yes.
- He didn't lose in fights. - No, he didn't.
- He's quite tenacious. - Excuse me.
How about you have a match against Yoon Kyung?
I don't think it's a good idea.
- He's not that strong. - How could you suggest that?
I'm confident.
- Your friend is on a higher level. - Is that so?
- My friend is not that strong. - I see.
What I want to tell Hyun Moo is...
(What does he want to say to Hyun Moo?)
I heard he's not in good shape as he's too busy.
I hope he won't work too hard.
- You want him not to work hard? - Yes.
He studied really hard in middle school,
but he couldn't be ranked first.
- That's true. - I think...
it would be the same for his work.
He offended me twice in a short moment.
He made me feel upset first.
- Only if you're not good at fighting... - He is...
- as playful as you are. - Right.
- He had really big fists. - I see.
He wished you to be healthy.
I hope he'll regain health.
- That's all. - I understand.
Congratulations again.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
(Hyun Moo has reliable friends who care about him.)
Let's meet with the next person. Please come out.
(Hyun Moo got off to a good start, but...)
- Hyun Moo, you always joked around. - She's the one.
- You gave me such a hard time. - I think so too.
She looks...
- I'm sure she memorized the line. - Are you sure?
- It's been a long time. - He's the one.
It's me, Dong Hwi.
- I was the class vice president. - Kim Dong Hwi?
- All right. Go back in. - You must remember...
- All right. - The next friend is out.
- Hi, Hyun Moo. - He's Hyun Moo's friend.
- I'm Hee Gun. - Noh Hee Gun?
Who is Noh Hee Gun?
He just walked back in.
(He got eliminated quickly.)
- How many are left? - Is there one person left?
- What? - Is it over?
Is it really over?
Are you saying that 2 of those 4 are his friends?
(I'm doomed.)
- Two of them are your friends. - My goodness.
- Exactly. - Why did you do that?
(He let two of his friends go.)
- It's over. - My goodness.
- Oh, no. - You met them in a long time,
- and you made a bad memory for them. - Gosh.
- Oh, no. - Hyun Moo's friends recognized them.
- They're speechless. - They look the same.
- Why... - I think the last two are his friends.
You could've recognized them.
- Let's put them on there again. - We can't.
- Give me another chance. - My goodness.
Noh Hee Gun and... What was his name? Kim Dong Hwi?
Why would you ask me your friend's name?
Do you remember their names?
They're not my friends.
All right. You have no choice.
(Hyun Moo failed to find 5 friends.)
It's understandable. It's been a long time.
I feel so apologetic.
- Please say, "I'm sorry." - Please say, "I'm sorry."
Please say it from your heart.
What worries me more is...
that Hyun Moo might not recognize his friends...
even when they come back out.
(That would be the worst situation.)
- That won't happen. - I'm so worried.
I am very...
sorry.
I didn't...
(His friend comes out.)
- How could you forget me? - Do you remember him?
I was sure that he's not my friend.
You even watched videos with him.
- He's Hyun Moo's friend, - Welcome.
- Mr. Noh Hee Gun. - I'm sorry.
- What was his name? - Do you remember him now?
- He still doesn't. - I remember his face, though.
- Another friend is coming out. - He's coming out.
Another friend is coming out.
Who is he?
- I'm Kim Dong Hwi. - Welcome.
Dong Hwi?
You may not remember him,
but you will eventually as you talk with them.
(They feel even more awkward together.)
I really hate this awkwardness.
Hyun Moo is having a hard time remembering you.
- So please tell him about yourself. - Go ahead.
Dong Hwi, you gained weight, right?
- I gained a lot of weight. - Right?
You gained an enormous amount of weight.
I recognize his face now.
- You recognize him now, right? - Yes.
I forgot that I had so many memories with Hyun Moo.
I realized it when I was invited.
Could we be total strangers?
- We know each other. - I see.
You two seem even more uncomfortable.
I'll try to become closer to him.
I heard you have something...
- to say to Hyun Moo. - Come closer.
There are times when you fall down...
or get into trouble in life.
I hope you will overcome the hard times and become...
a great entertainer who gives people a good laugh.
He's a good friend.
- He really is his friend. - It's a great comment.
(One true friend is better than a fortune.)
(The after party is essential for Friends.)
- Long time no see. - Long time no see.
Happy New Year.
Get married, Hyun Moo.
Her nickname was Fermented Soybean.
(He reveals her nickname after the shoot.)
Please edit this part out.
(No one wants to live without friends...)
(even if he had all other goods.)
(Whenever we meet again,)
(I hope we recognize each other and smile.)
(We always feel happy when we're with friends.)
(Happy Together Friends)
