(This is a battlefield of comedians.)
(This year will be Nam Chang Hee's year.)
(Chang Hee makes everyone laugh.)
(He has such a great sense of humor.)
(The legendary entertainers will make you laugh out loud.)
(Will they win like this?)
(This is Radio Star.)
(The hosts start counter attacking.)
(This isn't easy.)
(This is a high-end comedy show, Radio Star.)
(Isn't this enough for 2 weeks' show?)
("Too Funny to Ignore" begins now.)
Today, we'll meet Nam Hee Suk and three other guests...
who are funny individually and even funnier together.
Today's theme is "Too Funny to Ignore".
- We haven't seen them for a while. - Our first guest...
hosted "Good Friends", one of the most popular shows in the 1990s.
He imitated a motorcycle horn sound.
(Everyone imitates a motorcycle horn sound.)
It became a big hit. He was the best comedian and show host.
- He was so funny back then. - It's in the past.
Now he's wandering between the two shows he hosts.
He's our everlasting Hahoe Mask, Nam Hee Suk.
Chang Hee and Sae Ho...
- laugh with exaggeration as always. - They always fake it.
- They just want to impress Hee Suk. - Exactly.
He's the icon of pitiful life.
- He made up new words like this. - That's right.
Lee Hyo Ri, Han Hye Jin, and Han Ye Seul.
Every celebrity he liked became successful.
Every TV show he hosted became popular after he left the show.
He always does all the work,
and let someone else get the credit. Ji Sang Ryeol.
I once said this about this guest.
"The popularity you gain without effort falls down quickly."
- That's a great comment. - However...
- Chao Shi Hao. - Chao Shi Hao.
(Last year, he said what happened at a duty free shop in China.)
Chao Shi Hao?
(He said he's very popular in China.)
- Chao Shi Hao. - He became popular with the story.
He's back as his popularity is falling down again.
- How should we help him this time? - Lately,
he can't get any opportunity because of Yang Se Hyung.
Se Hyung is the first person to cast for every TV show lately.
Sae Ho is trying to be the 2nd or 3rd choice.
He's dreaming of making his way up once again through Radio Star.
FCC...
- What's this? - Formerly Cabbage, Cho Sae Ho.
FCC, Cho Sae Ho.
(Hopefully, he'll be popular again.)
Even though Yu Jae Seok and Gu Ra are helping him,
- he's still not popular. - He should be popular by now.
The other entertainers have been helping him for 15 years.
He's been hoping to become popular every year for 18 years.
He might be called a rising star when he's 60. Nam Chang Hee.
Nam Chang Hee.
He should have become successful by now.
- Welcome. - It's nice to meet you.
Nam Hee Suk.
- Hello. - Hello.
Welcome, everyone.
Hi, Hee Suk.
He seems very determined.
- He's determined to be funny. - Exactly.
Please say hello to the viewers. Hee Suk, you go first.
I haven't been in MBC shows for a long time.
I'm Nam Hee Suk. It's nice to see you.
- You two debuted in the same year. - That's right.
- I admire him. - I adore him.
You two don't seem close, though.
(They both deny.)
That's how I lived my life.
- They were in different groups. - I'm a bit awkward.
- He was closer to other comedians. - That's right.
Sang Ryeol, please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, everyone.
I'm Ji Sang Ryeol, an entertainer like freshly made kimchi.
- He and you debuted in SBS. - That's right.
- We're not so close, - Right?
- but yes, we both debuted in SBS. - I see.
I haven't seen Gook Jin for a while.
He looks like Rhyu Si Min maybe because he lost weight.
- That's right. - He looks like Rhyu Si Min.
- They really look alike. - Exactly.
I have heard that before.
He ambushes us as always.
That's not my intention.
- Were you thinking about it there? - No, I wasn't.
It's as if you're performing a gastroscopy.
That was good.
He makes such unique jokes. It's his specialty.
His jokes are special.
- He's so funny. - He already started making jokes.
He improved his skills a lot after hosting many variety shows.
He did, indeed.
- I'll look forward to your jokes. - Okay.
- Sae Ho. - You said Se Hyung is more popular,
- It's reality. - but I decided to come here...
after the staff implored me to come many times.
Hello, I'm Comedian Cho Sae Ho, also known as Chao Shi Hao.
Our staff members implored you?
- Of course. - Do you think...
you can overcome the crisis by bluffing like this?
I have no choice. That's my only option.
Your outfit seems familiar too.
- You didn't buy any clothes. - Didn't he wear this last year?
- I saw this last year. - Last year, I wore...
Why are you talking about my clothes?
(Please talk about me.)
- I bought this outfit long ago. - Are those designer clothes?
Yes, they are. I don't buy clothes often these days.
Now...
I am a brand.
- You're a brand? - Of course.
- You're a brand? - My ability is more important.
Not long ago, you appeared in a show where you have to travel overseas.
I want you to know...
that they had implored me to join the show for many years.
Do all producers implore you to come to their shows these days?
I'm embarrassed to say this,
but things like that are happening to me.
- I see. Anyway, - Right.
- he's in big trouble. - It doesn't seem like that.
The fact that he says something like that means he's in trouble.
Have you already noticed that?
- You look desperate. - I do?
Chang Hee, please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, I've been called a rising star for the past 18 years.
I'm the rising star of 2017, Nam Chang Hee. It's nice to see you.
- You know... - You don't seem nervous.
- You seem relaxed. - I have nothing to lose.
You have double eyelids. You didn't have those.
- That's right. - He's always had them.
- I didn't have them. - He didn't.
I got them naturally as I got old.
- My eyelids became saggy... - He has a double eyelid...
- Congratulations. - only on one eye.
I can't believe you're that old.
- Chang Hee got old. - I'll turn 40 soon.
- He went to Dongsan High School. - Right.
- I debuted as a high school boy. - Exactly.
Did Sae Ho give you that sweater?
- It looks like Sae Ho's. - They look so similar.
- You're right. - Really?
- It's true. - It's Sae Ho's sweater.
He didn't give me this. I just borrowed it.
I didn't buy it. He lent it to me.
I see.
Do your best as this might be your last time in a TV show.
I always think it might be my last day.
I always feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff.
(He feels like he's standing at the edge of a cliff.)
Doesn't he look like Donnie Yen with double eyelids?
(Hee Suk helps Chang Hee.)
- He looks like Donnie Yen. - Shall I imitate him?
- Donnie Yen? - He looks like Donnie Yen.
(He prepares himself.)
(I am Donnie Yen.)
He really looks like Donnie Yen.
He looks like Donnie Yen.
- Wing chun kung fu. - That was good.
Why don't you imitate Film Director Lee Chang Dong?
- I saw you imitate him before. - Shall we see that too?
He looks like many people.
- Film Director Lee Chang Dong. - It was very funny.
Director Lee Chang Dong.
(Oh, I recognize him now.)
(Way to go, Chang Hee.)
In my opinion, his unique sense of humor...
is the reason why people can't just give up on him.
When we think that he's funny and put him on a TV show,
he's not so funny anymore.
(Many of Chang Hee's senior entertainers experienced this.)
- Jae Seok and some other people. - That's right.
Hee Suk, you're here as Sae Ho and Chang Hee's guardian.
- This is your first time here. - Is this his first time?
All you want is to see Chang Hee become popular. Is that true?
I can assure you this.
I can see his potential.
- What about him... - Especially recently...
during the past 10 years,
there have been two that I believe will become successful.
One is Chang Hee and the other is Hanwha Eagles.
- Hanwha Eagles. - Yes, Hanwha Eagles.
- You invested a lot of money. - He's one of the biggest investors.
Considering the rankings, Chang Hee is like a halibut.
A halibut stays on the bottom of the sea.
I saw the possibility that he will become successful eventually.
I believe this year will be Chang Hee's year.
I hope...
his appearance in this show today will change his life completely.
- What I'm saying is... - You're very hopeful.
I'm sorry, but what would you do if this won't be successful?
- How would you take responsibility? - What would you do for him?
A halibut...
is good for sashimi. It would be the end.
(Chang Hee is afraid.)
(I'm just kidding.)
It's been 18 years. That wouldn't make a big difference.
(My friend, even you abandoned me.)
I want him to have a new hobby too.
What is his hobby?
He should enjoy something to make him go up,
but his hobby is scuba diving.
(I need to go up.)
(All he worries about is Chang Hee.)
Anyway, Hee Suk really cares about...
- Sae Ho and Chang Hee. - We know.
In order to help Chang Hee improve confidence,
he convinced Chang Hee to buy an expensive imported car.
Chang Hee is still struggling to pay the installments.
He even feels suicidal thoughts.
The script says, "Chang Hee is very depressed."
Why would you say "Suicidal thoughts"?
Are you depressed because of your car?
Just say that you feel suicidal urge.
- Why should I? - Just say it.
- I mean he feels very depressed. - Is your car a German brand?
- Yes, it's a German brand. - "B" brand?
- "B" brand? - Yes, it is.
Hee Suk told me to buy an expensive car...
- How many years ago? - Pardon?
- Recently. - It was the end of December, 2016.
You just bought it.
- It was not long ago. - He said, "2017 will be your year."
- "Buy a car for a change." - "Buy a car."
So I bought a car.
- I was sure he'll become popular. - After that,
I couldn't get any jobs.
It was a big change as he said. I became depressed.
- You know... - It was a big change.
- He has such a good sense of humor. - You must've been excited at first.
He had to leave the only show he was appearing in.
You became depressed.
Yes, I became depressed.
Look at the star on the hood of your car.
- Tell yourself you'll be a star. - I should be a star. It won't help.
(I'm sorry.)
- It should cost you a fortune. - How much do you pay a month?
I pay 1,340 dollars a month.
- It's a mid-sized sedan. - It's a mid-sized car?
- Yes, it's a mid-sized car. - How much is your rent?
I pay 250 dollars a month for the mortgage interest.
- You pay 1,500 dollars a month. - That's right.
- 200 dollars for your phone bill? - That's right.
- He should pay for the insurance. - You spend 1,700 dollars in total.
- The car insurance is 500 dollars. - I see.
You need at least 2,300 dollars a month.
- Yes. - In that case,
he needs to earn between 4,000 and 5,000 dollars a month.
- Right. - He needs money for a living cost.
You might steal from other celebrities in waiting rooms soon.
I wouldn't do that.
That's Sang Ryeol's way to make jokes.
- Just say you will steal. - That's how he jokes.
His jokes are funny.
In fact, I stole from other celebrities a few times.
- I see. - Yes, I did.
That's not the way you should react to that joke.
(My effort to help you went to waste.)
Hee Suk is good at convincing others to buy new things.
I heard Sae Ho bought an imported car...
- forced by Hee Suk. - That's true.
- Did he force you to do that? - It must be his habit.
- He convinces others to buy a car. - Why did you make them buy a car...
- when they couldn't afford it? - When I debuted in my early 20s,
- I paid 300 dollars for rent. - You bought a "B" brand car too.
One day, he asked me to go to Yangjae-dong with him.
He said he would go there to see a car to buy.
He told me to buy a car too.
- He seemed so excited. - Are you an imported car dealer?
(I had my reasons.)
He wanted me to buy a car.
I wondered if he would get some money from the deal.
Back then, imported cars were...
way too expensive.
He asked the dealer, who was his friend, if there was a cheap one.
He asked if there was any cheap car...
that I could afford, and his friend said,
"We have a really cheap car,"
"but it might have a few problems. Wouldn't you mind?"
A while later, he brought a car that looked clean and nice.
It was two weeks after the flood.
The car had been on the road for about 110,000km.
- Was it a flood-damaged car? - Yes.
- Water kept coming out of the car. - He had his reasons.
He said, "When you don't have a lot of work,"
"driving a fancy car brings you good luck."
"Other people won't look down on you."
- That's the change he talked about. - That's right.
- I agree with Hee Suk. - I see.
- You should be bold. - Once you buy an expensive thing,
you will try to become a person who can afford things like that,
- and it's a good thing. - That's what I thought.
After I bought the car, on a very cold day,
I was going from the Yanghwa Bridge to Gwangjang-dong.
Traffic was backed up on the Gangbyeon Expressway.
I wanted to smoke a cigarette.
I pressed the button to roll down the window,
and it made a creaking sound, which hadn't happened before.
I got upset because I wanted to smoke.
The window creaked, and then, it fell down all at once.
- The cold wind blew into my car. - I see.
(He started exaggerating his story.)
- Didn't you exaggerate it? - The window fell down?
- I didn't exaggerate it. - It just fell down?
- If you think of how a car works, - It's a true story.
- that's not possible. - It just fell down.
- It must've been frozen. - People could see my face.
- They must've recognized you. - I had afro hair back then.
I said hello to them while smoking.
I smoked almost the whole pack until I arrived.
Or else, it would've been weird that my window was opened.
- That's funny. - Half of my face froze.
(Gu Ra sensed he's exaggerating the story.)
So I... I'm not exaggerating it.
It's a true story.
- I'll explain it. - It's a true story.
When he bought the car, he fixed the window with tape.
- I put tapes around the window. - He used duct tape.
That night, I was driving to see my friend.
There was a sobriety checkpoint.
- It sounds like a sitcom. - I pulled over my car.
- That's hilarious. - I couldn't roll down the window.
The police officer asked me to roll it down, and I said I couldn't.
He asked me again, and I said it wasn't working.
Then, he said it again more strongly.
- He told me to roll it down. - You could've stepped out.
I tried to get out of the car, and the officer stopped me.
He said, "Don't get out of the car. Just roll down your window."
(He's exaggerating it.)
The officer saw my window fixed with tapes,
and told me to fix my window.
Many people who drunk drive get out of their cars to avoid the test.
- Is that so? - They might run away.
- That's true. - On a rainy day,
Sae Ho came to my neighborhood to see me.
He was holding an umbrella in his car.
- His car... - In his car?
Yes. He said he had opened the sunroof,
but it wouldn't close.
(He opened his sunroof, but it didn't close.)
(Please help me.)
What's more, Hee Suk was...
holding the umbrella while I was driving.
When I drive faster than 20kph, the umbrella blew inside out.
I had to drive slowly, and the driver behind me...
- thought I was in trouble. - All sorts of things happened.
One of the things that made me decide to buy a new car was this.
I was waiting for Chang Hee.
I leaned back my seat while waiting for him.
- I was there. - Were you with me?
- I leaned back like this. - Did it not come back up?
I meant to sit up when he comes, but the seat didn't come back up.
So I drove like a hip hop artist.
(He's exaggerating it again.)
- He drove like that for two weeks. - There's still a way to drive it.
I want to tell you something. Gu Ra keeps...
- making this gesture. - What does that mean?
- He thinks I exaggerated it. - I see.
- It's a universal gesture among us. - I can assure you...
that I didn't exaggerate my stories.
I told myself to tell only true stories...
- without exaggerating them today. - When you told the stories...
Comedian Kim Han Seok used to...
tell many stories about a broken car.
- Right. - Their stories are similar.
Han Seok once said that he bought a car,
but his windshield wipers weren't working on a rainy day,
so he drove while wiping the windshield with a towel.
- That was too much. - That's funny.
My steering wheel fell off, so I had to drive without it.
Like this.
(It's a true story.)
- My goodness. - How is that possible?
Speaking of cars, I'll tell you a true story.
I bought...
- You have a story too? - a new car.
I was coming back to Seoul from Jinhae.
It was a manual shift car.
I changed the gear into the fifth gear.
Usually, the car can run at 120km or 130km per hour.
While I was driving between 120kph and 130kph,
my gear knob fell off.
- It just fell off. - You couldn't change the gear.
I had to drive in fifth gear all the way back to Seoul.
- Is that true? - Yes. It wasn't working.
- Do you know how I stopped my car? - Goodness. Korea ranked...
- 5th or 6th in vehicle production. - I had to...
- That's just ridiculous. - I had to...
- It's a true story. - We're are speaking of the truth.
Why do things like this happen to comedians only?
(He can't argue with that.)
- That's why we're comedians. - It has never happened to me.
Nothing like this has happened to me.
- I can assure you this. - It doesn't make any sense.
I promised myself...
not to exaggerate my stories anymore...
as I became more popular than before.
After I exaggerated my stories and make up friends that don't exist...
in a TV show, I went back home.
Then, everything felt so pointless.
I was confused about who I really am.
- Keep yourself together. - I asked myself, "Who are you?"
Please treat me like a person in a documentary.
- Okay. - I'll be authentic.
- All right. - You said you'd promote Chang Hee.
(You're talking about yourselves.)
- Sang Ryeol. - Yes?
Gu Ra talked on Radio Star about the feud...
- between you and Yeom Gyeong Hwan. - We should talk about this.
Despite his financial difficulty, Gyeong Hwan gave...
- a wedding gift to your nephew, - Gu Ra said that.
but you didn't even visit his naengmyeon restaurant.
- He said that. - Is that true?
Yes, it's true.
- I never make up a story. - So there's a feud between you two?
- It's not that there's a feud. - I never make up a story.
- I never do. - I didn't visit his restaurant.
I meant to visit his restaurant,
but we couldn't find time to meet there.
- The restaurant opens every day. - You couldn't just go there.
- Why do you have to see him? - I wanted him to be there...
- as I would feel awkward alone. - I see.
- How are things between you two? - We're good friends.
- I heard you two don't meet up. - In fact,
I talked to Gyeong Hwan on the phone yesterday.
He was invited to today's show.
Today?
He couldn't make it because something came up.
He thinks the person who prevented him from coming on the show is...
Sang Ryeol.
(No way.)
- I think he's mistaken. - He thinks Sang Ryeol planned it?
He said, "How could he do this to me..."
"just because he feels uncomfortable around me?"
- I see. - He's misunderstanding Sang Ryeol.
So I comforted him.
I said that Sang Ryeol isn't influential enough to do that.
That's right. That's true.
He isn't here mainly because Chang Hee prayed for it.
- Did I pray for it? - His prayer was answered.
- I prayed that he wouldn't come on? - It was either him or Gyeong Hwan,
- and Chang Hee got that seat. - Chang Hee must have...
- thought of what could happen. - Sae Ho.
We were talking about the feud between me and Gyeong Hwan.
They might conclude that we really have a problem.
I didn't mean that there's a feud between you and Gyeong Hwan.
It's Gu Ra's theory.
(It was a lie.)
Gyeong Hwan will open a soba noodle restaurant...
in Ilsan today.
I know that,
- but I really meant to go. - You should visit his restaurant.
- I will do that. - Did Gyeong Hwan call you?
No, I didn't hear it from him.
I heard that he would open a restaurant, though.
After the hidden camera prank of you and Lee Gye In,
you became famous as a loyal friend.
Your close friend Gyeong Hwan, whom you should take care of,
always eats alone as he sent his kids to Vietnam,
and drinks soju all by himself at home.
- Why didn't Gyeong Hwan tell you? - Why didn't you visit him?
Why do you think he didn't tell you about his new restaurant?
He opened his naengmyeon restaurant two years ago.
- Why didn't you visit there? - Sang Ryeol keeps doing this.
(He keeps fiddling with his fingers.)
Why didn't you visit his restaurant?
- I really want to know. - It's as if he's typing.
(He looks around restlessly.)
- Am I... - Please apologize to Gyeong Hwan.
Am I being interrogated?
It looks like you are.
I want to tell you...
Gyeong Hwan, Sang Ryeol, and I have known each other...
- over 30 years. - That's right.
We finally started to accept the differences among us.
This is what they do all the time.
I've known them for a long time too. Didn't you fight with Gyeong Hwan?
It's not that. What I mean is...
- You two hit each other in a car. - I fought with him before, but...
- Really? - Hold on.
- Did they hit each other? - I was there too.
- Gyeong Hwan said... - You'll exaggerate it.
- You two fought in the car. - Did Gu Ra really hit him?
This is how they fought in the car.
No. If they fought like this,
- I would've understood. - How did they fight?
- They were like girls fighting. - Didn't they fight like this?
- How did they fight? - Why do you say that?
They said, "Do you know who made me become a comedian?"
That's before Gyeong Hwan went bald.
- They looked like women fighting. - That's when he had hairs.
They are as tall as 185cm, but this is how they fought?
Their looks resemble the looks of generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Few.
(Fighting)
- This is quite shocking. - They grabbed each other's hair.
But the reason why we are now getting along is...
because he is married and has a son.
I also have a son, but Sang Ryeol is single.
Before, I used to go out drinking with him a lot.
- Now we... - You don't get along?
Now our personalities are different.
- You admit that? - I admit.
Let me give you an example.
One time, I introduced him to a senior colleague like Gook Jin.
I called the colleague knowing they were together after my shoot,
but he didn't pick up the phone. I asked, "Where is Gook Jin?".
He said he didn't know where Gook Jin was. I asked him where he was.
He said he was filming a program.
He said he'd call me after the shoot and I asked when it'd be.
He hung up after saying it would end at night.
After an hour later, that senior colleague called me in secret.
"I didn't pick up the call. Sang Ryeol told me not to answer it."
- Goodness. Hey. - "We are at a sauna."
- "I'll call later" and he hung up. - That's where they were.
- Who is that senior colleague? - What was this?
He likes to be mysterious.
- In a way... - This is being mysterious?
(He's at a loss for words.)
- Mysterious? - You made me into a crook.
That's not even trying to make me look better.
You should've just told them I was a spy.
(He gets a fit of anger.)
Mysterious my foot. Just tell them I am an armed communist guerrilla.
- I'm certain you are friends... - Of course we are.
because only you two use the power puff.
(This is the evidence of their friendship.)
Last year, you garnered great popularity with "Chao Shi Hao"...
- on our show. - That's right.
It says you checked the audience's reaction in Harbin as it aired.
Could you elaborate?
I was in Harbin when the show aired,
- You were? - but I couldn't see the show there.
I was resting at the hotel after my shoot.
One of my junior colleagues sent me text messages.
- You got the texts. - I asked to keep me in the loop.
He texted that the show started and I asked how it was going.
He said I didn't say hello yet.
(Isolated)
I said, "Let's let it roll a bit." He said, "Park So Dam is talking."
I felt very anxious in that cold weather.
- You couldn't see it for yourself. - In that cold weather...
- You were in Harbin. - Gu Ra said you were finished.
Since I couldn't see, I couldn't understand what was going on.
It was out of context.
Then he texted, "Amazing".
Chao Shi Hao got a lot of laughs.
Chao Shi Hao.
(Chao Shi Hao created a big laugh among them.)
- "Congratulations." - "It was funny."
I asked him with what attitude I should go back to Korea.
He said I should have an attitude of a gold medalist.
(Proud)
When I was coming back, everyone was saying that line.
(He's the happiest man in the world.)
- They welcomed me. - Thanks to our show, you shot...
- an advertisement with Gu Ra. - That's right.
- It lasted for three months. - He's right.
He likes to end shooting quickly. Did he want the same for it?
Hold it. Nothing happened. Are you going to make up a story?
As I told you before, I'll tell you only the truth today.
- He never has a heartwarming story. - He always tells me this.
"When I star on a show, you let me shine although you often get..."
- "criticized. Thank you." - That's true.
This is true and he says,
"But this isn't how Jae Seok does."
(It's an exaggeration!)
(That is such a huge exaggeration.)
Hey!
- You almost made up a new story. - Hey.
(Gu Ra is an exaggerator.)
- Hold on. - Did you say this or not?
- Wait. - When did I say that?
- Did you say this? - Did you say this or not?
- Did you do it? - I said they have different styles.
- He starts with a warm attitude, - Did you say it or not?
- but Gu Ra... - Why are you shivering?
- Why are you shaking? - It's because I am cold.
You can't let go of Jae Seok.
- That's true. - No, no, no!
(He's desperately trying.)
(This is not true.)
- I went to "Infinite Challenge"... - With whom...
do you work better, Jae Seok or Gu Ra?
(This is the biggest decision in his life.)
- Who's better? - I work better with Jae Seok.
I might work better with him,
- but I want to work him Gu Ra more. - What is that nonsense?
Exactly. Just make your decision.
- Whom should I pick? - Pick one of us.
I told you I chose Jae Seok.
You got invited to birthday party of Ahn Jae Wook's daughter.
- You really did? - But you couldn't go due to work?
- You really didn't? - Now you are acquainted.
I really wanted to go to the party. Even Chang Hee said that...
I should go and host the party...
since I felt very grateful for him. But just then...
the party was on the day as my shoot.
This is how I couldn't go to the party.
I told him that I was very sorry.
During the New Year, we starred on a pilot program together.
I said I would make sure to go...
- and watch the musical he is in. - Did you watch the musical?
- It ended yesterday. I couldn't go. - You didn't go.
- Did you go or not? - I couldn't go.
You didn't go. I see.
He'll never take part.
I heard you meet up with people like Lee Dong Wook...
- even if you don't have a reason. - That's true.
- You see him 2 or 3 times. - I do.
I can't understand how you didn't go to a musical...
while you had a few months and promised him.
You just took advantage of him.
On this matter, I should apologize.
(He feels bitter.)
He didn't even come to my brother's wedding.
- Really? - Doesn't he have any loyalty?
I went to his sister's wedding and didn't give a monetary gift.
My mother was surprised. It was as if she had been robbed.
She looked for an envelope with his name, but she couldn't find it.
- He signed in the guest book. - "Who would steal only his gift?"
She asked if I had taken it.
She assumed he could've given it to me personally.
- I said no. - I didn't hand in a gift.
For you, Chang Hee, Radio Star is like...
- Jae Wook's wedding for Sae Ho. - That's right.
Starting three years ago,
when I texted Gu Ra the new year's greetings,
he invited me to the show.
However, I can only star on it when the staff cast me.
- I told the staff a few times. - I am aware.
- I did. - I know.
He can only make suggestions. The decision is the staff's.
- I wanted to appear on the show. - You know...
when I make my suggestions, I have to feel good about them.
When I suggested casting him, everyone felt awkward.
- It was so sudden. - I am not wanted that much?
- When I suggested it... - They don't want me that much?
- That's an unreasonable request. - This happened.
So I am in a pickle as well.
Unreasonable request.
- I am not wanted... - The producer and I are close.
When I talk to him about Chang Hee, he looks unhappy all of a sudden.
Do I possess the power to split people into groups?
(It's the story of Chang Hee who makes people feel awkward.)
A lot of people think you belong to Jae Seok's group...
since you starred in "Infinite Challenge".
- I thought you were with Gu Ra. - So did I.
However, you are actually in Hee Suk's group.
I was made aware of this today.
I'm also in Hong Jin Kyeong's group.
- That's right. - By the way,
you also star on that show.
- Park Myung Soo's radio show. - That's right.
He says that I am in his group too. In a way, I am...
- Have you seen the film, "Hwayi"? - Yes.
I am Hwayi in the entertainment business.
You can think that I have five parents.
(He has five parents in the entertainment business.)
- It does feel like it. - You want to clear up confusion...
Gu Ra mentioned regarding the fee...
he paid for his son's school event.
- What was the story? - What happened was...
I invited Sae Ho for my son's school event.
- He said he didn't have time. - You invited Sae Ho?
- So I invited Chang Hee. - I was the replacement.
I sent him the fee for his appearance.
The host refused to use Chang Hee after I mentioned his name.
- I thought what I should do. - I...
It felt awkward to ask for the money back.
- It's true. I sent him the money. - Right.
- Was it your money? - I paid him out of my own pocket.
I was thinking what I should do since the host didn't want him.
Chang Hee said he'd return the money.
I told him to return 500 dollars and he can keep the rest.
- You did the right thing. - What he said isn't untrue.
- He's your junior colleague. - It's not far off from the truth.
- It's slightly different. - How?
He transferred 1,000 dollars. Later, he called to say it was canceled,
but difference is that...
- he asked me to return 700 dollars. - No.
- No, that's not true. - It was 300 dollars.
I can remember this correctly.
- You said, - Hey you.
"Buy a pair of designer jeans for 300 dollars."
- I thought you were nice. - No.
I didn't ask you to return the money.
- I said I'd return all of it. - Is it a fact that he wanted 700?
- Yes, it's the right amount. - No.
- He doesn't lie. - I think so too.
I couldn't reject. I did buy a pair of designer jeans.
Didn't I let you keep 500 dollars?
It was 300 dollars. That's what you got wrong.
- It was 300. - If that's the case...
- You don't sound so generous now. - After hearing the whole story...
- 500 and 300 are quite different. - Wait.
- You can give him 200 more dollars. - It's not that...
What year was this?
- It happened 2 years ago. - It was 2 years ago.
I will check my bank account.
(He'll provide evidence.)
I have the record of transactions for last 10 years.
- I will check on it... - It was December in 2015.
- Check the record for that month. - But...
as an observer, I think Chang Hee is right on this matter.
- I think so too. - It happened two years ago.
It was when I was in a financial struggle.
- That's why I felt more burdensome, - Please understand me.
- so I wanted to return the money. - Please understand me.
- It was hard for me to send it. - That's right.
- I am aware of it. - You did the right thing.
- You should return 200 dollars. - I apologize.
- I shouldn't receive it though. - Hey.
- Give him the money. - Give him 200 dollars.
- Give it to him. - Nowadays,
- I am doing... - Look.
- all right financially these days. - Is that a check?
- Give him. - It's because I've been telling...
- people I gave you 500 dollars. - Right. I understand.
He said it has to go through the agency first.
- It needs to be processed properly. - This is a personal matter.
Right, it is. I didn't appear on the event.
- It's not... - Report events to the agency first.
Last year at MBC awards, Chang Hee and Gu Ra danced to Twice's song.
(Last year was a year filled with cuteness.)
(Shy, shy, shy)
(It was a special stage with a nominee for the Grand Award.)
- It was your first awards ceremony? - Yes.
- Really? - What a sad story.
I made my debut in 2000.
(It was 16 years after his debut.)
The awards ceremony last year was...
- my first one I participated in. - It was your very first?
- That was my very first time. - Is that so?
I felt overwhelmed with happiness.
On top of that, I even prepared a stage with Gu Ra.
It was with Twice's song.
I practiced the dance all night long.
On that day, we tried it together for the first time at the rehearsal.
Gu Ra said we should have a run-through by ourselves first.
So we did.
He said we were terrible.
- Right. I said that. - That's what he said.
The producer said it might be better if we all do it together.
We did the rehearsal with Gu Ra.
It was even worse than before.
- That was true. - He was worse than us.
- I was worried. - That couldn't have happened.
- He was so cute though. - The audience really liked it.
Right, the viewers loved it.
He really practiced so hard.
I was in the awards ceremony as well.
Wearing that costume, he frowned as he practiced in the waiting room.
Hey, Sae Ho.
I wish you wouldn't speak on that matter.
- Why didn't you join them? - Actually,
- the members were... - You could've joined them.
- Heo Kyung Hwan, Din Din, - Right.
- Hwang Je Seong, and Nam Chang Hee. - Nam Chang Hee.
- I thought Sae Ho'd certainly join. - So did I.
- I asked... - He's gotten famous now.
to check his schedule.
I was aware that everyone was as busy as Sae Ho...
except Je Seong.
Compared to him, I am not that close with Kyung Hwan.
- The same goes to Din Din. - Right.
I don't know why,
but he said he couldn't join because he didn't have time.
I thought he was just busy, but people asked...
if he was performing together and I said he was busy.
They said he didn't look so busy.
- They said he mustn't have said no. - Right.
I told them saying he was busy.
He was probably busy meeting Lee Dong Wook.
That's why I said.
- You brought him into this? - It's because...
- everyone was busy... - Right.
- but Sae Ho didn't join us. - That's what I am known for.
Lately, he's been spending time with Dong Wook and Kwon Sang Woo.
- He's not interested in us. - He's not?
He doesn't care about us.
- He chases after celebrities. - I want to be friends with them.
- When did you meet Dong Wook last? - I met him...
- He dislikes being talked about. - He doesn't like it?
He says that I always talk about him on the shows.
- He tells me not to act rashly. - Look at this.
You see him every day, but you never talk about him.
You don't even see us, but you talk about us.
- How unfair is that? - He doesn't like it.
- You take care of your contacts. - I do.
After he finished shooting "Goblin",
he had some time and we met up for two straight days.
It's a relief the drama was successful.
Dong Wook could've been abandoned.
(Sae Ho might have not treated him as a celebrity anymore.)
If he knows Gong Yoo, he would've not been friends with Dong Wook.
(If Sae Ho knew Gong Yoo, Dong Wook would've been ignored by him.)
- He was with Lee Dae Ho. - Right, he was.
He knows nothing about baseball like the number of players in the game.
This is a true story that happened with a taxi driver in Busan.
I was sitting in the front seat and we were talking about baseball.
I asked him it must be a hard time for the baseball team in Busan.
Sae Ho wanted to partake in our conversation.
Kia Tigers is the baseball team in Busan, Right?
No way.
- This is horrible. - "What are you talking about?"
Why did you meet with Dae Ho then?
(He doesn't even know about baseball.)
I made a huge mistake...
- for the baseball fans. - Today,
the true color of his...
"People Is Good". Who is Cho Sae Ho?
His true color is revealed today.
(This is who you are.)
I will accept any criticism by the viewers today.
I did it because I was desperate to succeed.
I longed to become a celebrity.
I wanted to have a drink with Dae Ho calling him by his first name.
I wanted to be friends with Dong Wook.
If Hee Suk calls you 1,000 times, you are extremely loyal...
that you answer the call 999 times.
Because of that, you almost...
- broke up with your girlfriend. - Oh, right.
- It happened a long time ago. - I haven't heard this one yet.
I would answer his call 999 times if he really called me 1,000 times.
I would go out 998 times to see him.
My girlfriend and I planned a trip for the weekend.
- And? - You should've gone then.
- Right. you should go on the trip. - But...
I heard one of my acquaintances' parent has passed away.
We are all mutual friends. Hee Suk texted in the group chat room...
that he planned to go to the funeral on a Saturday night.
- He meant everyone should come. - So I...
That's why I canceled the trip.
(No way.)
- You shouldn't have canceled it. - So I...
I don't know why I did that. I don't know why I thought to do that.
- If he contacts me, I have to go. - It all started at some point.
It's all his fault because he does the same.
- He doesn't do it anymore. - He has changed.
He's gone to Dong Woo and Sang Woo.
(His grudge continues.)
- But he isn't aware of this. - This is the first time hearing it.
Hee Suk has to change a bit.
- He has his own style of talking. - What kind of style?
- That's true. - We were walking and he asked,
"Sae Ho, aren't you hot?"
"Yes, it is hot today."
He said, "Isn't it very hot?" and I said, "Yes, it is very hot."
He asked, "What do you do when you are hot?"
I said I would turn on the air conditioner.
"Do you also eat ice cream or something?"
- No way. - He wanted to you buy ice cream.
He could've just told me he wanted ice cream,
but he would never suggest it first.
- I know what you're talking about. - He always sends me a text first.
I get a picture of deliciously cooked pork belly.
"A delicious restaurant in Mok-dong with a great atmosphere".
What does he want me to do?
- He wants you to come. - Exactly.
- He wants you to come. - What does he want?
- You wanted him to come. - No, I just meant it was delicious.
- No, you wanted him to come. - Besides...
he sends you a picture.
I only get a text saying "Mok-dong".
But I go to see him. I find my way there.
"Where are you in Mok-dong?"
(Where are you in Mok-dong?)
- I agree with this too. - You do, right?
He's a year younger than I am and we were drinking in Incheon.
I mean he led and helped me a lot.
I can rely on him in this entertainment business.
He can just say to meet him at 7pm since he'll be there around then.
He said, "I'm going to see MacArthur".
That's what he said.
What did he want me to do?
- Well... - He should just tell me...
- It was in Songdo Recreation Area. - he wanted to eat raw fish.
Everyone here was overly loyal to him.
- Hee Suk. - This is the first time that...
I felt so uncomfortable with someone who's younger.
You have to ask an expert when you are curious about something.
The range of experts varies from a novelist, reporter, and judge.
- You ask them regardless of fields? - Yes.
- I have to ask the experts. - That means you all of them.
The writer publishes chapters of the novel in the newspaper.
- The protagonist meets many women. - In the novel?
The main character's name is Cho Chul Bong.
The name of the novelist is Lee Won Ho.
So I had a meeting with him.
- You called him and said your name? - Right. I told him my name.
He asked me why I had called.
I asked him if this protagonist was based on his real experience.
- That's all? - Yes.
When I watch the news, I can't hold down my curiosity.
- I must know what happened after. - So you called a reporter?
I asked the reporter how the incident was concluded.
- You were curious. - "Hi, this is Nam Hee Suk."
- They usually meet with me. - How about a judge?
- That is... - You wanted to know the verdict?
I wanted to know about the statute of limitation.
Statute of limitation?
I asked about the serial killer in Hwaseong and why our law is weak.
- I asked such things. - What happens if he turns up?
- It's over. - The statute of limitation's gone.
Now there is no statute of limitation on murder cases.
- I ask these sorts of things. - Yes, I heard it will change.
Sae Ho said, "I am in charge of taking care of Hee Suk's contacts."
Do you really do that as you said before?
I'm glad that through him I can meet a lot of nice people.
One of the side effects is...
If he likes talking to the people at the next table, we drink together.
We were playing pool and he asked someone about the game.
When the guy answered him, he wanted to have beer with him.
- He drank beer with a stranger. - I was just curious.
One day, we were at a shrimp restaurant.
Some thugs were at the table next to us.
- Thugs? I see. - There were 5 to 6 of them.
They were sitting right next to our table.
- We were aware of them... - You can't help it.
and so were they.
We were drinking...
and we heard them saying, "Isn't that Cho Sae Ho and Nam Hee Suk?".
- They always make sure you hear it. - Right.
At first, we pretended not to hear them.
Hee Suk kept ignoring them.
But then he said,
"Why do you keep calling my name? Am I your friend?"
- That's what he did. - Yes and they were surprised.
He said, "If you're happy to see me, we can drink together."
"Why do you talk about me?"
"Let's drink together. Sae Ho. Join them."
So all of a sudden,
- You drank together? - Yes, we did.
We started to share our age.
He said, "I am older. Consider me as your older brother. Shake hands."
"Invite him to events and exchange your numbers."
One of the guys asked for his number and he said,
"You can call Sae Ho."
Then he left.
After five minutes, he left me with them.
I was surprised at what was going on.
I didn't know what was happening.
He used to do that since he was young.
We talked about men until 4am.
You know those contacts.
He passed their numbers on to me. He stopped answering their calls.
They said they will end him when they find him.
They really keep calling me because he doesn't pick their calls.
Why did you give their contacts to me?
(Well)
Sang Ryeol, because of your forgetfulness,
there was a time you put your underwear around your neck.
- It was recent. - Is that your preference?
It is not.
- It's hard to put it there. - I went to the public bathhouse.
I showered and got out. I was driving.
I felt there was something on my neck.
Without realizing, I thought the underwear was a towel,
put it on the neck, and drove home.
- I went to a sauna with sunglasses. - Right. That happened before.
I think as we grow old, there are some changes within our body.
I knew them since I was young and they never got drunk.
I think Sang Ryeol has aged.
- It's been a while. - Now he does get drunk.
There are rumors about him in the industry.
In order to upkeep his alcohol tolerance,
he acts like someone who takes out loans to parade his money...
when he doesn't make much.
He drinks more than his liver can handle.
Because his alcohol tolerance has dwindled,
he fakes it by forcing others to drink...
when he himself doesn't drink.
It's a well-known fact.
I think Sang Ryeol should come clean about his alcohol tolerance.
He should say, "I am drunk. I can only drink a bottle of soju."
However, people think he can still drink 4 or 5 bottles of soju.
- They have expectations. - That's right.
In my opinion, he is gone after drinking a bottle of soju.
People who love to drink...
want to drink with him. However, Sang Ryeol is not the same.
Now, it's time...
- to let him be. - What you are saying...
is like bathing a dead body.
- Think about your health. - I am alive and well.
I can still drink three bottles of soju.
- Gu Ra is trying to save your life. - You will be gone.
He said he wasn't drunk,
but I once saw him eat chopped steak with his hand.
He was drunk.
"Listen to me. Pour some more drinks, Chang Hee."
"Listen to me." Then he picked up hot chopped steak.
"I need to eat meat and replenish my body with protein."
"Eat meat." He was also drooling.
He grilled rockfish and ate only the head.
Time out. I am sorry, but please give me a bottle of soju.
I can't be here sober.
(I can't be here sober.)
The next part is the opposite of what we have seen of him.
Sang Ryeol's life motto is "Don't get angry."
- He is angry now. - He is very angry now.
I have irregular heartbeat.
I have high blood pressure. It's like a mountain.
He said, "Not even Kim Gu Ra has seen me angry."
What I will tell you next...
is one of the most memorable moments I had with my friend of 30 years.
Sang Ryeol and I once drank...
in front of our school.
We were walking by afterwards when one person bumped into us.
Then he said,
"At what year did you enter the school?"
The person who bumped into us said that.
Sang Ryeol said,
"I didn't go to school, you jerk."
(I didn't go to school, you jerk.)
I thought to myself, "What is he doing?"
Even though he is my friend, I was flustered.
What makes you say you have never gotten angry?
Come on.
- May I share a story? - Go ahead.
Gyeong Hwan, Sang Ryeol, and I often go fishing together.
We went fishing one time when his fishing rod...
began to shake. He should have lifted it up,
but he didn't get there fast enough.
- It went into the water. - The fish took the fishing rod.
It's very quiet at the fishing hole.
You can't fish if it's loud.
His fishing rod disappeared into the water.
"Hey!"
"Hey, you jerk! Fish look down on me now."
(He began to swim fiercely.)
- "You jerk!" - Did he really do that?
- You must remain quiet there. - I couldn't believe my eyes.
At a fishing hole,
a living person...
went into the water and pulled it out.
People at the fishing hole were too scared to say anything.
If you talk too loudly or turn on the light, they say,
"Turn off the light. Be quiet."
Since Sang Ryeol was too angry, people remained quiet.
(Looking away)
They didn't know what to do.
One time, we were in a car. Sang Ryeol was the driver...
and Gyeong Hwan and I were the passengers.
We were returning from the countryside.
Back then, Sang Ryeol had Robot Jjibba's hairstyle.
He didn't even wear glasses. He went around squinting.
We were chatting and enjoying the ride.
We hadn't done anything wrong. However, a car pulled over.
"You jerks shouldn't drive." Then he drove away.
(Flustered)
I said, "What is wrong with him?"
When Sang Ryeol gets angry,
- he blinks a lot. - He does that when he is angry.
(Laughing)
He is very polite to me.
"Hee Suk, please wait a second."
He parked the car and walked over to the driver.
He went there with that hairstyle and said, "Get out of the car."
"Get out of the car."
The driver held on to the seat belt.
(He held on to the seat belt as if it's his lifeline.)
"What have I done wrong?"
"Tell me."
(Flustered)
Sang Ryeol, I didn't finish you off.
Hee Suk did. I didn't finish you off.
- I am your friend. - Hee Suk finished him off.
I didn't tell such stories because you are my friend.
For a second,
I saw figures in dark clothes beckoning to me.
(He will be forced into the afterlife.)
May I add a story that involves Chang Hee and me?
Let's not further ruin his image.
We might as well hear the story.
- I had a bad dream yesterday. - We might as well hear the story.
Chang Hee and I were planning to drink by ourselves.
Sang Ryeol called. "Where are you?" "I am with Chang Hee."
"You and Chang Hee should come to Hongdae."
"Let's eat gopchang at this great restaurant."
When we arrived, we found that he is with a junior comedian...
who impersonates Sang Ryeol.
"Come out for a second." We followed him outside.
"He did a voice impression of me at a comedy program."
"Let's pull a prank on him."
"When you scold him,"
"I will scold you for scolding him."
"Then Chang Hee can try to act as a mediator. Let's have fun."
- As soon as we arrived... - There was no camera, right?
There was no camera. We were by ourselves.
They did it by themselves.
I said, "Why did you impersonate Sang Ryeol without a permission?"
"I am sorry." "It's not ethical."
"You should have asked."
Sang Ryeol said, "Don't scold your junior comedian like that."
It was very fun.
Chang Hee chimed in and said, "Don't do that." We drank...
and went to a gamjatang restaurant.
The prank has been going on for three hours.
The junior comedian was nervous.
There was another comedian who was a senior to that comedian,
so I decided to show the highlight of the prank.
- You wanted to wrap it up. - When Sang Ryeol was present,
I said, "It's your fault..."
"that your junior comedian misbehaved."
I threw three lettuce leaves at him.
"That's not comedy. You don't impersonate someone without asking."
All of the sudden, Sang Ryeol said,
"Sae Ho, come over here."
"Okay." "Sit down. What do you think you are doing?"
I was in a great mood.
"Why are you acting like a dog..."
"just because you are drunk?"
- "Didn't anyone teach you manners?" - He forgot about the prank.
"Chang Hee, come over here. You should have stopped him."
"What's wrong with you?"
He poured us soju in glass cups.
We figured it was water...
since it's a prank. We winked at each other.
"It's not that. They kept joking around."
"Drink up." It was soju. It was pure soju.
We thought we had to drink to make the prank seem more real.
Then he said,
"Since both of you have no manners,"
"you should go home."
"You should pay for the drinks since you ruined my mood."
As I paid for the drinks, I went to him and said,
"I am sorry, but this is a prank."
"A prank? Sae Ho, I forgot because I was drunk."
Chang Hee had passed out in front of a utility pole.
I had already paid for everything.
That night, I went home and stood in front of the refrigerator.
He opened the door and urinated inside the refrigerator.
He was too drunk.
I was on the phone for 3 hours with a girl I broke up 3 years ago.
(I was on the phone for 3 hours with a girl I broke up 3 years ago.)
We heard stories about Sang Ryeol, whose life motto is,
"Don't get angry."
Will this segment end in this way?
How else should it end?
Are there more stories?
In a hidden camera prank for an MBC program,
- he didn't get angry. - No, he didn't.
He has changed a lot.
We will wrap this up with a clip from the hidden camera prank.
(He is practicing his life motto of "Don't get angry.")
- Sae Ho. - Yes?
Chao Shi Hao?
I am Chao Shi Hao.
In Korea and China,
Sae Ho became the talk of the town.
When Chang Hee shows up in China,
the camera director yells "Nan Chang Si" and drops the camera.
He drops the expensive camera.
- He yells, "Nan Chang Si". - They must have weak arms.
They must have weak arms.
- He drops a camera. - It happened...
when I was filming in China with Kim Jong Kook.
The woman who was in the shoot...
was a celebrity who played Donnie Yen's wife in a movie.
- Lynn Hung. - Lynn Hung. She exists.
We were filming with her.
Chang Hee joined the shoot as someone...
who came to cheer for us.
Since he doesn't have a specialty,
he decided to impersonate Donnie Yen.
He impersonated Donnie Yen...
- in front of Lynn Hung. - I see.
- It was... - Did people burst out laughing?
It was more than that. People were in a frenzy.
They couldn't believe a Korean man impersonated Donnie Yen.
Donnie Yen is the biggest movie star in China.
He is the best.
They said, "Hao Chi". They were in a frenzy.
"Hao Chi" means "It's tasty."
(Laughing)
Who cares? It's still a compliment.
(I see.)
Sae Ho said Chang Hee is an expert at relationships...
even though he is bad at being on shows.
He witnessed Change Hee captivate a woman's heart in 0.5 seconds.
- Really? - It's an instant.
- What did you tell them? - That's like love at first sight.
- It's a true story. - You don't even recognize...
someone you know that quickly.
- That's right. - It takes more time than that.
I will tell you the story without embellishments.
Every time Sae Ho speaks,
I am excited to hear his exaggerations.
I don't want to feel empty anymore.
In Japan, your nickname is "The master of lies".
(I don't believe you.)
Chang Hee and I...
were having fun at a club.
The waiters arrange meetings between customers.
A woman sat next to Chang Hee.
Chang Hee continued to send texts. The woman said,
"You should say something when you have a company."
- It's common courtesy. - He said, "Okay. Please wait..."
"while I finish my text." Then he continued to send texts.
She said, "Stop sending texts. That's rude."
He said, "Okay. Please wait." Then she said,
"I am going to leave."
Chang Hee said, "I will stop."
He broke his cell phone in half.
I am serious.
- It's a true story. - Really?
- It's a true story. - Why did you do that?
I admit that it really happened.
I wanted to show my manliness.
I didn't say, "I will stop." When she got up to leave,
I said, "Wait" and broke the cell phone.
Seeing that, the look in her eyes changed.
I wanted to show my cool side.
- It's not cool at all. - It's an anger management problem.
Seriously.
Did things work out between you and that woman?
How did it go?
We had a nice conversation. I wanted to call her the next day,
but my cell phone was broken beyond repair.
It couldn't be repaired because I broke it in half.
I couldn't see that woman again since that day.
In any case, you know how to captivate women's hearts.
That's right. Chang Hee is manlier...
than you would imagine.
He woke up with an unkempt look when I was getting ready to go out.
He said, "Give me 300 dollars before you leave."
"What are you going to do with 300 dollars?"
"I am going to use them. Let me use some money."
- My goodness. - It was ridiculous.
"Why do only you get to spend money? Let me spend money too."
Money is for spending.
My money is not for your spending.
- I have no money. - I will be honest with you.
There is a reason he hasn't succeeded.
(There is a reason he hasn't succeeded.)
Chang Hee, the relationship expert thinks it's a lie...
that Sae Ho has been in a relationship.
- Don't be ridiculous. - You think it's a lie.
We have been friends for 15 years.
I heard him talk about his past relationships on TV.
However, I have never seen his girlfriend.
You have been with him for a long time.
That's right. Yet I have never seen his girlfriend.
He keeps telling a lie.
- You have never seen her. - Did he make up those stories?
- Wait a minute. - They were friends for 15 years.
- If Chang Hee hasn't seen her... - Listen.
- If it's a lie, I will immigrate. - I have seen her.
- Really? - He has seen her.
He showed up with an unbelievably pretty woman.
Why didn't you introduce your girlfriend to Chang Hee?
- I bet she wasn't his girlfriend. - Let me be clear with you.
I will never introduce my girlfriend to him.
- Why not? - Do they fall for him?
One time, he told me he is at a restaurant when I called him.
I told him I will go there with a woman I was seeing.
I told him that so that he would help me...
in solidifying the relationship.
As soon as I arrived, he said, "Athlete's foot is here."
- My goodness. - He said that in front of a woman.
- My goodness. - I was trying to be funny.
He was drunk. "Athlete's foot is here."
- "Athlete's foot!" - It's funny.
- It's funny. - When he said that,
the woman became flustered.
- She started to wonder... - She might think you have problems.
what our relationship was.
I said, "Stop joking around."
Then he said, "Gosh, I don't want to catch a skin disease."
I didn't say that. I said you have eczema.
- I have mild eczema. - It's a weakness.
I know. His comments made the atmosphere awkward.
"Sae Ho can be obsessive. Be understanding because it's love."
Then the woman said, "I am sorry,"
"but I need to give a lesson tomorrow morning."
"I need to get going."
- She was a dancer, wasn't she? - I said...
She was a violinist.
I got her a taxi. When she left, I said to Chang Hee,
"How can you do that when I asked for your help?"
He said, "No. I did nothing wrong."
"Your girlfriend needs to understand your shortcomings."
- He yelled at me. - He is cool.
That's ridiculous.
I asked, "Should you apologize to me?"
"No. Your girlfriend needs to understand you."
"Pay for what we ate." Then he left.
I decided to never introduce him...
- He's a man. - to women I am seeing.
- To be honest... - He is a man.
He isn't a man. He is a bully.
If you are going to break up because of athlete's foot,
it's better to do it sooner than later. Don't you agree?
When I met a woman Chang Hee was seeing,
I told her that his face belongs to someone who is 190cm tall.
Everyone laughed. Then he called me over later.
"You have no manners."
"Pay for this round."
He is exaggerating.
- No, I am not. - He exaggerates here and there.
When they meet women...
I always aim to tell honest and simple stories.
(Honest and simple)
When Chang Hee met Hee Suk 17 years ago,
Hee Suk cursed him and said...
- That's not it. - that he will fail in six months.
Sae Ho had invited me over to introduce me to Hee Suk.
Hee Suk was pretty drunk.
As soon as he saw me,
he said that he knows I drink with popular celebrities...
in Gangnam.
He said, "I am certain you will fail in six months."
He kept saying that.
- Haven't you done what he said? - No, I haven't.
I don't have many friends who are celebrities.
I wondered what would happen to him since he cursed me so much.
He was the one who had paralysis of the mouth...
from drinking too much.
- That's right. - It really happened.
That's right. He had facial paralysis.
He was the one who suffered from drinking too much.
Your curse was effective.
(He is in deep regrets.)
- That's a self-reflective story. - There were...
many misunderstandings about Chang Hee.
A producer said to me, "Chang Hee seems like a bad man."
I asked him why he says that. He said he saw Chang Hee...
smoking and spitting at a bus stop.
Chang Hee doesn't smoke.
I guess there are people who look like him.
There are people with Chang Hee's face.
- Many people look like him. - That's right.
- I have his face too. - We look familiar.
This happened when I met Lee Gyeong Gyu for the first time.
I went to say hello to him because he was at the other table.
As soon as I approached him, he said words of curse.
He said, "I know him well. He won't succeed."
"He doesn't have a face of a celebrity."
He was right on that one.
"You don't have a face of a celebrity."
"You should give up. Find another job quickly."
There were Seo Kyung Seok...
and Lee Yoon Seok, but he only attacked me.
At the end, he said, "Think about your child and quit."
I don't have a child.
- "Think about your child and quit." - He confused you with someone.
Jeong Man Ho had appeared in "Global Junior Show".
He had confused me with Jeong Man Ho.
That's why he said those things.
Jeong Man Ho is attacked when he isn't even here.
(We hope you are doing well.)
Chang Hee is good at predicting the flow of variety shows.
He foresaw an invitation from "King of Mask Singer"...
and received a vocal lesson for a year.
I am dedicated to learning.
- I have a lot of free time. - Yes, you do.
I don't sit idly by during my free time.
It's better to learn new things and expand my talent.
What have you learned so far?
- Singing. I learned how to sing. - Singing.
I am learning how to dance these days.
I learned Chinese and Japanese.
- I also had lessons in badminton... - Badminton.
- and cooking. - Why did you learn so many things?
Can you be in a musical? Can you sing while you dance?
- I can do it. - Really?
(This is the moment)
(He opens his vocal cords.)
(When I send all my doubts and demons on their way)
(Good job, Chang Hee.)
- He is doing a good job today. - He definitely had lessons.
That's right.
- Chang Hee! - I am proud of him.
- I am proud of him. - Can you dance?
Of course he can dance.
- Chang Hee. - Do it well.
(Expectant)
(Wriggling)
(It's unclear what kind of dance it is.)
(He laughs out of embarrassment.)
Is this what you learned?
I learned specific choreographies.
- I can't improvise. - You can only dance certain moves.
I am sorry. I can't improvise.
He tried very hard.
I know Chang Hee well. He was very flustered.
He is sweating. He is an honest man.
(He is the icon of honesty.)
Hee Suk persuaded his wife for six months...
- in order to buy a motorcycle. - I heard about this.
He finally bought it but hasn't driven it out of fear.
I am faint-hearted.
- Why did you buy the motorcycle? - Seriously.
- Why did you buy it? - Did you buy it to look cool?
When I turned 44 or 45 years old,
I got an urge to ride a motorcycle.
I got an urge to go on a ride through Gangwon Province.
I told my wife about it. She doesn't usually say no,
but she hardened her face and said, "You are irresponsible."
"Our child is still young. You can get into an accident."
Then she stopped talking.
I yielded and bought a helmet.
I bought an expensive helmet and continued to shine it.
- You shined it at home. - I shined it while I watched TV.
It must have been painful for your wife to watch.
(It must have been painful for your wife to watch.)
Then I bought gloves and safety pads.
I wore them at home.
- You would look like a burglar. - After I did that...
- for about seven months, - Seven months?
she asked, "Do you still want to ride a motorcycle?"
That's when I bought...
a Harley-Davidson.
- He bought a big motorcycle. - I joined a club...
with a nice president.
The president rides like this while the members ride like this.
My goodness.
Short people ride big motorcycles.
They ride the motorcycle like this.
- Yes! - Yes!
(Yes! Here we come.)
We went on a ride to Chuncheon.
It was incredible.
The president looked very cool.
When he saw that there were no cars around...
(Glancing around)
(Gosh, my shoulders hurt.)
His shoulders were hurting.
I guess his shoulders were in a lot of pain.
It's not like the drivers who are passing by will know.
Every time a car showed up...
(He became cool again.)
I thought of another story. It's about the vice president.
For safety, full face helmets are the best.
However, he only wears sunglasses to look cool.
Then he would drive at the speed of 80km per hour.
Then we stopped at a rest area.
The cool vice president...
took off his glasses and revealed that he was in tears.
(His tears fell when he took off his sunglasses.)
(This charisma disappeared with his tears.)
He was in tears.
If you don't wear goggles,
wind gets into your eyes. I have tried it once.
I rode the motorcycle in a cool way,
but the truth is different. My mouth was like this.
It was a flat line. My eyes were like this.
(His eyes were bleary.)
(He looked like a Hahoe mask.)
The story shouldn't end here.
He sent a group message.
"You will need a motorcycle license."
(Let's ride together.)
When Sae Ho traveled to Thailand with Chang Hee,
he received a strange massage that drained his energy.
We traveled to Thailand together.
- You go to Thailand often. - When we went there,
Chang Hee suggested that we receive a massage.
Chang Hee can speak English very well.
He said, "Excuse me. We want a massage."
The driver said, "I know a good massage shop."
- You were on a tuk tuk. - That's right.
We arrived there on a tuk tuk.
It was a shabby massage shop. We lied down.
Two old ladies who looked like they needed a massage more than us...
- came into the room. - That must've been awkward.
And one of them started to massage me,
- and she was simply touching me. - She just touched you.
She was just resting her hands on you.
While getting the massage,
I thought we were going to be punished for this.
- So Chang Hee... - You felt guilty.
We felt like our energy was being sucked out.
Please tell us about what happened in a club in Thailand.
- About the girls with trapezius. - The girls with trapezius.
In Thailand, there's an area called RCA,
- and it's where all the clubs are. - It's where all the clubs are.
Chang Hee found out about that area and suggested that we go there.
So we went there. When we were drinking,
Chang Hee saw two Thai girls.
And he said he'd go bring them.
- He can speak English. - Right. Chang Hee said to them,
"I'm a gentleman. Don't worry."
"No touching. No touching."
I didn't say that.
- I said, "Trust me." - Right, he said "Trust me."
- Why would you say "No touching"? - Why would I say that?
Why would you change "Trust me" to "No touching"?
- I said "Trust me". - He's always like that.
He's a strange man.
Chang Hee said, "Trust me. I'm a gentleman. I'm not dangerous."
- Did he really say that? - That one is true.
- He said we're Korean gentlemen. - It's true.
You speak English well.
- The two girls came to our table. - I can say anything.
And they really liked me.
So I was dancing with them. Chang Hee must've...
thought they liked me.
He suddenly looked sulky. I asked him, "What's wrong?"
And he said he want them to go.
I asked him what was wrong and said that I was having fun.
Then he suddenly yelled at me to send them away.
I told him to stop because I was having fun.
Then he said, "Seriously, stop. Send them away."
I asked him what the problem was.
He told me to look at one of the girls' feet.
Her foot was about 280mm long.
- It was more like 320mm. - It was like men's shoe size 10.
He told me to look at her fist,
and she had the fist of Mike Tyson.
It turned out they were transgenders.
- I didn't realize it at first, - There are a lot of them.
but when I looked at them again,
I realized that they had big trapezius muscles.
(That's a funny story.)
With that, I will wrap up my dynamic storytelling.
- How was it? - You two should...
publish a world travel guide.
(Sae Ho and Chang Hee's Trip Around the World)
Sae Ho and Chang Hee used to do a lot of skits together.
And Chang Hee was strictly Sae Ho's assistant.
- Right. - Sae Ho said everything funny.
Will your skit be the same today?
Yes, it will be the same.
Are you going to manipulate it again?
- I told Chang Hee. - What did you tell him?
I told him we should change roles today,
and I should assist him.
And he said he only wants to do what suits him.
He said he couldn't possibly make people laugh.
Don't you want to make people laugh too?
I think he keeps cursing me in his mind.
(He's got a hunch.)
- We will do a skit about... - I remember this.
a traveler buying a watch from a peddler in Thailand.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Are you from Korea? - I'm from Korea.
- I got nice watches. - You got watches.
- Show me. - Wait.
Leather or metal?
- Leather. - Leather. Okay.
Genuine crocodile leather.
It doesn't need battery. It's automatic.
(They're experiencing Thailand in Sangam-dong.)
- This is an automatic watch. - How much is it?
- It's 42 dollars. - It's too expensive.
- There's no discount. It's genuine. - It's too expensive.
- Okay. Bye. - Bye.
It's 28 dollars.
This is genuine. It won't burn.
I only have 14 dollars.
It can't be 14 dollars.
- It doesn't get scratched. - I only have 14 dollars.
- Okay. Bye. - Bye.
14 dollars.
(He doesn't give up and lowers the price to 14 dollars.)
Sae Ho loves buying genuine designer brand products now,
but he used to buy a lot of fake ones before. Is that right?
He couldn't afford the genuine ones before, so he bought fakes.
He wanted to boast about it on TV.
He wanted to wear it and look cool on TV.
So he wore a fake watch and went on a TV show.
After the opening, we all clapped our hands.
When he was clapping, his watch got completely dismantled.
- It got completely dismantled. - It got unscrewed.
- All the screws got unscrewed. - He's good.
- That was good. - It got dismantled, didn't it?
- The screws got weak. - That was good.
I was with the singer Joo, and she saw it.
I told her, "Please pretend you didn't just see that."
(He asked her to pretend she didn't see it.)
- I... - Can you clap your hands now?
(He claps his hands loudly.)
You can clap your hands now.
- There's no problem. - He said...
I needed one too.
So he bought one for me in China.
I normally don't wear a watch.
But I had to wear a suit one day, so I thought I'd wear it.
I had to shake it to activate it.
So I held it and shook it.
And all the numbers fell.
The numbers moved around inside the watch.
- It was like a snow globe. - He's really good.
- The numbers float around. - He's good.
- He's very good. - I didn't wear it after that.
(He doesn't exaggerate his story.)
- All the numbers fell out. - He's good.
- Good job, Chang Hee. - That was good.
- Everything fell when I shook it. - He's actually a really funny guy.
You talk really well today.
(He became funny near the end of the shoot.)
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
Today, we are here with the four funniest guys.
So we prepared the songs that are too funny to ignore.
- All right. - Will they sing funny songs?
Let's listen to Sae Ho and Chang Hee's choice.
(They can't believe what they are hearing.)
You chose this song.
(Sae Ho starts dancing.)
You are taking a risk.
It's Rain's "The Best Present".
- You two are friends, aren't you? - Yes, I'm friends with Ji Hoon.
I'm friends with Ji Hoon.
- He calls Rain "Ji Hoon". - Yes.
- Do you call him "Ji Hoon"? - Do you know his number?
- I know his number. - Did you go to his wedding?
I didn't...
- get to attend his wedding. - Then you're not his friend.
(He never attends anything.)
Why did you choose this song?
We wanted to sing this song because we are...
- the best presents to each other. - To each other.
- Yes, to each other. - Yes.
(He laughs after saying it.)
Didn't you just come up with that to make your friendship look good?
I thought...
the song was talking about Chang Hee.
Looking at you two makes me think like this.
I think your friendship got better when Sae Ho became less popular.
(Gu Ra gently drops a bomb.)
- I think that's what happened. - It must be true.
- Right. - He's become less popular.
- They look like lovely friends. - I'm sad to say this,
all the bubbles are gone.
But when I turned back, Chang Hee was there waiting for me.
We've been standardized downward.
Sae Ho and Chang Hee will sing "The Best Present".
Hello.
They are great.
- What are they going to do? - They look great.
We are the ones dreaming to be the next Rain.
I am Rain's friend, Raincoat.
- I am Umbrella. - That's right.
We are Raincoat and Umbrella.
Aren't you Kim Jeong Soo?
(Gu Ra throws a random joke.)
(He takes the joke immediately.)
- He does look alike. - He reacted to my joke well.
(Sang Ryeol reacts passionately.)
We are Raincoat and Umbrella.
I'll give you a heads-up.
Chang Hee mastered the dance of "The Best Present".
He told me to only sing. He said he'd do all the dancing.
He will sing, and I will dance. We tried to perfectly...
reenact Rain's performance. We dressed like him too.
- All right. - Rain's necklace was expensive,
so with respect for Hee Suk,
we got Hahoe mask necklaces.
- It's for Hee Suk. - We got Hahoe mask necklaces.
(He wants to be popular again.)
(He wants to be popular now.)
(The two ambitious men will perform.)
("The Best Present" by Sae Ho and Chang Hee)
(He stays true to the original work.)
(It's the song of friendship sang by two men.)
(He vibrates as if he's freezing.)
(Hee Suk cracks up.)
(People tell me that I am nothing special)
He's good.
(He learned to dance by going to K-Pop dance classes.)
(He pushes Sae Ho.)
(He's expressing the lyrics with his entire body.)
(Whatever situation I'm in, wherever I'm wandering)
(You smile at me)
(You're the best present)
(This world gave to me, Chang Hee)
(He sticks to the original choreography.)
(Chang Hee tries to pull off Rain's dance with an unlike-Rain body.)
(He gets immersed in the situation and reveals his belly.)
(I want to dream the same dream as you)
(My friend Chang Hee has been a rising star for 18 years.)
(I hope Radio Star will kickstart his career.)
(I promise you my everlasting love and my everything, baby)
(And he howls.)
(He takes his friend's part as soon as he promises his love.)
(He dances with great energy.)
(The audiences are happy.)
Come on, Chang Hee.
(He doesn't want to lose to Sae Ho.)
What is that?
(Let's go!)
(The divinity gave them...)
(the best harmony.)
(I want to open my eyes with you)
(And close my eyes with you on the same day)
(Their bromance exploded on Radio Star.)
- They tried hard. - They prepared a lot.
It's Rain's song, but...
- it sounded more like The One's. - It's not easy...
to abandon your habit.
(It's not easy to abandon your habit.)
You are the cheat keys of variety show scene,
and you managed to hit a jackpot today.
Why didn't you come to Radio Star earlier?
I wasn't invited. How could I have come?
(He manages to say the line nicely.)
We hope you will be welcomed wherever you go.
We will say bye here.
- See you next week. - Please!
