We're calling it the "Era of Supporting Stars,"
"Don't Tease Me for Placing Second Special"
(Choi Dae Chul)
(I want to be Park Bo Gum for the older ladies.)
(I'll give you a simple answer.)
(Your answer is already long.)
(I'm not a good story teller.)
(It really is the Supporting Role Special.)
(They don't have any confidence.)
(Shin Dong Wook)
(He has old-fashioned moves.)
(He's still in the 90s and his style's old-fashioned.)
(You talk like an old person.)
(Heo Kyung Hwan)
(Even Kim Young Chul is more popular than him.)
(I don't even pass playgrounds since I don't want to hear "Ring Ring".)
(It might have ended up well because you didn't do it.)
(Ye Sung)
(Was the success of Hee Chul and Si Won due to Ye Sung?)
(I wasn't even in our first album's music video.)
(He's a natural second.)
(Be confident.)
(Variety war of the supporting roles)
(They are so eager to become the main.)
(The scramble of 2nd places for 1st place)
(We're starting the special right now.)
I don't want to show my awkward short hair
Kyu Hyun will leave.
I'm on the train away from home
On my way to boot camp
It's tomorrow.
Aren't you taking your company's car, not a train?
I'm going to take the carnival-like car.
Let's see tomorrow if he will still be laughing.
When the parents...
- When the parents leave, - Of course.
- the assistant's face will change. - Of course.
- He'll become a real man. - Their faces will suddenly change.
You're going to have to walk like this always.
You're so happy for me right now.
(We're just joking.)
Kyu Hyun, at boot camp...
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, do your best
We're trying to cheer you up.
(His cheering isn't helping.)
- Cheer up. - Anyway.
Cheer up and endure.
I was happy
Because of the memories with Radio Star
I want you to remember me forever as Radio Star's MC.
However tomorrow,
I will become trainee, Cho Kyu Hyun.
What is he doing?
- Cho Kyu Hyun. - He's good.
Our youngest Kyu Hyun will start boot camp tomorrow.
We'll ask you the official question in a long time.
What is Radio Star to Kyu Hyun?
You're making me fluster.
I didn't want to make the atmosphere like this from the opening.
What about leaving right after doing the opening?
- Let him be. - He's leaving tomorrow.
If he really thinks of Radio Star, he should shave his head here.
We were going to shoot in Nonsan.
(These guys are merciless.)
- Leave tomorrow. - We can get a barber here.
What is Radio Star to Kyu Hyun?
I was with Radio Star for about five and a half years.
Has it already been that long?
Radio Star was my Wednesdays, and I was responsible for your Wednesdays.
He already prepared for this.
- That's okay. - I...
I thought of this every day for the past three months.
- Are you running for something? - I can't believe him.
- The show made me. - He's thanking us.
However in the future,
I won't be interested in it anymore.
(He's being merciless.)
(He's more merciless than the other guys.)
Let's say it again in a long time.
We're the high-end music program.
Let's meet again.
Radio Star.
Today at Radio Star, the guests aren't in first place so they are...
Sorry sorry sorry
However, their presence is as good as the main role. They are the...
Supporting Supporting
- Why did you make him sing? - We have four guests today.
- He's tone deaf. - It's the "Era of Supporting Stars,
Don't Tease Me for Placing Second Special".
Let's see the first guest.
He led dramas "My Daughter, Geum Sa Wol",
"Jang Bo Ri is Here!", and "Our Gab Soon" to a big success.
He became famous for his interesting acting as a supporting role.
However, he is passionate to become the main role.
He's an ambitious actor.
Don't tease me for being greedy
- What are you doing? - It's Choi Dae Chul.
This person was on the MBC sitcom, "Soul Mate".
He won the women viewer's hearts with his long hair and hair band.
However, he had to take a break due to his rare disease.
He's back full of passion,
but he's a supporting actor that didn't make the main role.
Don't tease me that I'm pitiful
Shin Dong Wook.
This person was a supporting MC for a very long time.
He's the authentic supporting role for variety shows.
The fixation as a supporting-role phenomenon has break out.
He took the single path as a supporting role.
He's the supporting-role master.
Recently, he passed Hong Jin Young's hit song...
Is this a hit song?
- It is a hit. - It's really popular.
I'm your brother
- I'm your brother - "Ring Ring."
He passed it to his fellow comedian, Kim Young Chul.
He became the symbol of passing good luck.
He's very unlucky.
Don't tease me that I lost it
- Sing the song. - Just sing.
- It's written right here to sing. - Just sing it.
This kind of variation is okay.
- Why didn't you shave? - Why didn't you shave?
There was an award today.
What does that have to do with anything?
(He is making excuses.)
This person only insists on staying in the corner.
He's the representative supporting member of Super Junior.
He walked the single path of a supporting role.
He's a supporting role to the bones.
Don't tease me that I'm behind
It's Ye Sung.
- Welcome. - Welcome.
- Hello. - Welcome.
That's interesting.
- Can you close the door? - Can you close the door?
The supporting roles are all trying to be the main character...
when they are all among supporting roles.
Supporting roles usually close the doors.
- I'm the main among these guys. - That's right.
They're number one among the world of supporting roles.
Could you greet the viewers? Let's start from Dae Chul.
Hello, I'm Actor Choi Dae Chul.
I'm the ratings fairy.
No, they call me the ratings Peter Pan.
- I'll do my best as a good actor. - He prepared well.
- Nice to meet you. - His career is amazing these days.
Dong Wook, it's your turn.
Hello, I'm Actor Shin Dong Wook.
It's been a long time.
I'm on the MBC drama "The Guardian".
I hope you watch it.
- "The Guardian"? - I didn't know that he was on it.
It's been seven years since he's been on TV. He's starting to thaw.
- I never saw anybody do this. - It's old-fashioned.
We used to take photos like this.
He's very handsome.
We used to do this on the "Lee Hong Ryul Show".
(He's old-fashioned.)
Kyung Hwan, please say "hello".
Let's not pass the smallest chances.
What's wrong with you?
I'm the one who missed a chance, Heo Kyung Hwan.
- Okay. - Okay.
He missed "Ring Ring".
I have a lot to say about that.
Let me talk about it after the introduction.
Ye Sung, please introduce yourself.
It's been two years since I've been on the show.
- I'm Super Junior's Ye Sung. - He lost a lot of weight.
- His eyes are sunken. - He looks tired.
He lost a lot of weight.
Ye Sung, I heard that you had insomnia?
- Really? - His eyes are sunken.
He doesn't have insomnia.
I was too excited to be on the show.
His name means that he has a sensitive personality.
Is that why he's Ye Sung? Is he sensitive?
It actually means the voice of an artist.
- The voice of an artist. - However, my members say...
that it means "yes, sex" as I mentioned two years ago.
- "Yes, sex". - "Yes, sex".
Ye Sung?
They interpreted the "Sung" that way.
Dae Chul is the supporting actor that everybody relies on.
You're saying that the total of your ratings are over 300 percent?
(He's the villain you've never seen before.)
(He also plays comical and romantic roles perfectly.)
(He's the ratings fairy that's always on TV.)
There's saying that whenever you're on the show, it's a success?
I never thought it like that.
However, whenever I'm on a weekend drama, it was a success.
The highest rating of "Wang's Family" was 48 percent.
- 48 percent. - That's high.
- I was in "Jang Bo Ri is Here!". - He did "Jang Bo Ri is Here!"
I was also in "My Daughter, Geum Sa Wol".
The ratings were 37 percent and 34 percent.
They were written by Kim Soon Ok.
I was also in "Love in the Moonlight".
It wasn't possible for "Our Gab Soon" to get that rating...
at that time on SBS, but it received a 20 percent rating.
That's when I thought, "Maybe it is because of me."
You're saying that the total of your ratings are 300 percent.
However, I haven't seen a lot...
- of his work. - They just added it up.
There's no meaning to it.
I heard about all of them.
However, I didn't know that Dae Chul was in all of them.
(He's humiliated.)
He's doing good.
Will the ratings of Radio Star be high then?
I'm sure that Radio Star's ratings will rise.
- How much? - To what percent?
- About 10 percent. - Then it's all because of Dae Chul.
Okay.
It seems like everybody isn't believing it.
- It's because... - It feels like four percent here.
10 percent won't be easy with these members.
It's not easy.
Can't we just shave Kyu Hyun's hair?
(He's sacrificed for the ratings.)
I heard that you had two rivals that you're feeling competitive of.
Kim Seung Soo and...
Is Seung Soo older than you?
- How old are you? - He was born in 1971.
Seung Soo is the same age as me.
I was born in 1978, year of the horse.
- Really? - I'm three years younger than him.
I heard that Seung Soo was the middle-age Kim Soo Hyun.
- Is he? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - We're hearing a lot of new things.
The world of supporting roles...
is a bit different than the main stage.
- There's a big difference. - Are we the main stage?
Seung Soo is really popular among middle-age actors.
That's why I want to become...
the Park Bo Gum for middle aged ladies.
You did a drama together.
You have a similar vibe with him.
Why are these adults trying to be like kids?
(We're not giving up on this nickname.)
Dae Chul is very lucky when it comes to his work.
- You can say that he's lucky. - Yes.
Kyung Hwan is stuck in a swamp.
He's making bad decisions for his career.
Hong Jin Young wrote "Ring Ring" for him.
However, Young Chul sang it, and it became very popular.
Everything happened when I wasn't there.
A lot happened.
To tell you the truth.
(Jin Young was planning to give the song to Kyung Hwan.)
(However, Kyung Hwan refused the song.)
(What was the title? "Ring Ring.")
(Jong Shin recommended giving it to Young Chul.)
(Young Chul always wanted to sing trot songs.)
Did Jin Young really plan to give it to you?
I need to talk about this.
About two years ago, I was asked to do a song.
This was two years ago.
I'm really close to Jin Young.
I was talking to her.
I walked her home.
In the middle of Gangnam main street,
before she left, she suddenly started to sing.
Ring Ring I'm your brother
She didn't even sing it well.
Kyung Hwan, I'll rearrange this song and call you later.
She left and it suddenly became me refusing her offer.
Two years later, I woke up one day,
and articles of me refusing "Ring Ring" came out.
I wasn't even there, I became the one refusing her song,
and Young Chul's doing great.
I don't even pass by my neighborhood's playground.
I don't want to hear the kids singing "Ring Ring".
(Kids are singing "Ring Ring" in the playground.)
Jin Young even did a survey on social media.
To choose between the two people.
(The scramble for "Ring Ring" was getting out of hand.)
(He sings it with all his might.)
- Even there, he lost. - It was a complete defeat.
- It was a complete defeat. - It was a complete defeat.
When it rains, it pours.
I was abroad at that time.
I had to record and upload that video in a short time.
She said, "Kyung Hwan, send me a video."
She also said that "You will win,"
"so don't worry."
"It was just a joke among us. I'll make it right."
- However, the gap was too big. - About double.
I was getting nervous, so I texted her.
"Jin Young, I'm about to lose."
She told, "Don't worry."
"I'm going to talk to my management..."
"and tell people that I was supposed to give it to you."
She said something like that.
The next day,
she posted on her social media that Young Chul won.
- Jin Young did that? - Yes.
I have a question.
We can imagine Young Chul singing "Ring Ring".
We'd like to hear you sing it.
- Do you know the song? - He's going to sing it later.
- Will he? - I was going to sing it later.
- Really? - It's on the script.
I wasn't interested because no one special was on the show.
I read the script for the past 10 years.
- Not for today though. - He really will sing it later.
(Kyung Hwan will sing it later.)
I have social phobia now.
People keep asking me, "Why didn't you accept the song?"
- "Why did you refuse?" - You're the symbol of bad luck.
That's why Jin Young...
gave me another song.
I'm going to reveal it here for the first time.
- You don't have to reveal it here. - What?
I don't have to, but I want to.
The title is, "I Passed Good Luck".
I don't like it.
- You're thinking it too easy. - The title's strange.
- She's writing it too easy. - You're thinking it too easy.
- Let's hear it. - I'll sing a little.
I passed good luck
On the green pasture
She gave me an already existing song.
It sounded familiar.
- Anyway. - I don't think it will be a hit.
(He's hurt.)
I know that this doesn't make any sense.
- However, Park Hyun Bin... - Park Hyun Bin.
sent me a song yesterday.
He said, "I don't want to see you being defeated by Jin Young."
The title is, "Get out of the Way".
I think that Hyun Bin's song is better.
His song is better.
Hyun Bin's song is better.
- It's perfect against "Ring Ring". - You're making me mad.
- That's good. - Jin Young versus Hyun Bin.
That's better.
He sent me a file named "Record File 53".
- What does 53 mean? - I recorded it for 53 times.
He made me a guide.
Get out of the way
- Get out of the way - That's better.
- I like it. - I'm your brother
It's good.
- Is it okay? - Isn't that plagiarism?
- Why? - I'm your brother
I'm doing it on purpose. To make it feel like a competition.
They're in a competition...
on a town festival level.
- It won't work on the main stage. - He's the best...
- for letting people down. - Anyway.
I'd like to be on the main stage.
You can sing after each other at a town festival.
Like that.
Ring Ring get out of the Way
That sounds good.
Please invite us as a package deal.
(He's making a request to the festival staff.)
Dae Chul, during your preliminary interview,
you said, "I have the blood of a main character."
However, you always played the best friend,
nerdy uncle, and swindler.
Where did you play a swindler?
In "My Daughter, Geum Sa Wol", and "Jang Bo Ri is Here!"
You said that you were worrying too much...
because of your position?
After "Our Gab Soon",
I was becoming nervous that I might have no work.
My wife suddenly told me, "I know why they aren't casting you.
Your first role...
had romance on the drama.
It was also like a main character.
Isn't that why they are hesitating to cast you?"
You should never increase your pay...
- during times like these. - You're right.
Once you increase it, you can't decrease it.
"Did Dae Chul ask for 2,000?"
"That's not going to happen."
"Okay. Dae Chul, you're ungrateful."
Situations like this happens.
People will just not cast him. They won't say, "You're ungrateful."
There's no reason to be mad. Just don't cast him.
"Dae Chul, you're ungrateful."
I'm just telling you this. There are situations like this.
- It will increase naturally. - Naturally.
- Increase it little by little. - 50, 100 dollars at a time.
Try to think that you're increasing 10 dollars each day.
It becomes a lot in the end when you increase it little by little.
If that doesn't work, just take bread from the waiting room.
(He became Jean Valjean against his will.)
Dong Wook had a lot going on...
for the last six years.
Since you've been cut off from the world, it's like you've been frozen?
It's been a long time since someone said hello with this gesture.
People did this a long time ago.
"Hello." This used to be the trend.
There's another person that has been frozen in time, Gook Jin.
- He's similar. - Nice to meet you.
- He was frozen in America. - He was frozen.
I also wasn't on TV for some time.
- For five years. - He's the best among frozen people.
(Gook Jin is the best among frozen people.)
Since I was sick,
I didn't have the chance to meet people.
- You don't know the trend. - I don't.
When I took the bus or subway,
people would read a book or either talk to each other.
I'm not used to this.
(People are all looking at their phones.)
- At their smartphones. - Yes, all the time.
"Why don't they have an usher in the bus?"
(They're teasing him.)
"Why aren't they accepting tokens?"
"Why aren't people using pay phones?"
You can stop now.
(Stop it.)
Dong Wook has a rare disease where the cause and cure are unknown.
He has CRPS.
He's returning after seven years of fighting against the disease.
Is this a multiple pain syndrome?
It's not that.
Pain comes to a part of my body.
However, I don't know the cause...
and how I got this.
The pain is too bad,
my teeth broke from trying to endure it.
- Your teeth broke? - Was it that bad?
Is there only pain in your hands?
- Yes, it only hurts my hands. - Your hands.
It used to hurt everywhere, but it got treated.
Is there still pain in your hands?
- Not much. It's getting better. - That's good.
There's only one pain left.
It hurts when it's cold.
However, it got a lot better. In the past,
when there was a cold breeze, it felt like a knife...
- was stabbing me. - Really?
I felt like I was being sliced.
It's a lot better. Even with the air conditioning...
- right now. - Shouldn't we turn it off?
No, it's okay. I'm good enough that I'm okay with this temperature.
- That's good. - I think it's better to reveal.
That's right. I'm the panic disorder promoter.
I let people know about panic disorder.
He's the promoter.
(He's always open for counseling.)
I have a question.
When you're in pain,
did you have anyone like a woman there for you...
to nurse you?
- That's possible. - That's completely possible.
- I think he has someone. - He smiled. That means he has one.
There is.
- Really? I knew it. - Do you have a girlfriend?
- It's not a person. - He even answers old-fashionedly.
"There is."
- He's so sure. - He's so old-fashioned.
Of course. It's hard to endure without someone by your side.
- Of course. - You need someone.
So you have someone?
It's not a person. It's a puppy.
It's a puppy.
- It's a puppy. - They always say puppy or fans.
He even interviews like an old person.
(He's getting angry.)
There's nothing you can do about it.
- I understand. - My puppy really helped me.
- Really? - I have a poodle.
The fur is really bushy.
When I'm in rehabilitation, they inflict pain in order to treat me.
The fur is really bushy.
It naturally helped me whenever I petted it.
It hurt at first.
The power of love healed me.
She helped me with the treatment.
- Your dog helped you? - Yes.
After that film "Benji",
- this is a very... - "Benji"?
- touching story. "Benji". - You are a man from the past too.
(Dong Wook isn't lonely since he has friends from the past too.)
- Let's move onto Kyung Hwan. - All right.
I guess he was fated to only play supporting roles.
I heard "Ring Ring" isn't the only good fortune you kicked away.
For example, you know how Yang Se Hyung is doing well lately.
I got the same offer with him.
- Really? - From "Infinite Challenge"?
At that time, I had no idea that the role would turn into such a big one.
- Why didn't you accept the offer? - It's because...
their filming didn't fit my schedule.
Se Hyung said, "It would've been great if you joined us too."
Then he became a regular cast member of the program.
So when we run into each other now, it's awkward between us.
He might have become successful because you didn't join them.
- The truth is... - Just because I join them, it...
- doesn't mean it'd be successful. - Right.
Another show you starred with Jae Seok didn't work out well either.
(Dong Wook looks at Kyung Hwan's bracelet.)
- We didn't film the last episode. - It didn't end well.
Jae Seok doesn't like him when he suddenly starts talking nonsense.
- He likes it. - When he says, "It happened."
When I say my catchphrase, he goes along with it.
(This is the funny part of Kyung Hwan's jokes.)
That's how I lost my golden opportunity with the show.
- I was also cast for "Reply 1997". - Really?
- For "Reply 1997"? - Yes.
- It was the very first season. - The series didn't start then.
My career was taking off at that time when I played Pretty Beggar...
and had the segment "Four Reasons".
I still remember that day. It was in front of the pole at the TV station.
My agent said, "There is a drama on a cable network."
"It's a drama that depicts the old times. Do you want to star in it?"
I had to put aside three days for the drama.
I said, "You know my schedule."
I said I had to play the beggar and star on the segment.
I could spend two days for it. He said it was better off not doing it.
So that's how we finished that conversation within five minutes.
But "Reply 1997" was a hit.
- It was sensational. - Yes, it was.
So I was cast for the second season of the drama.
- Which role were you cast for? - Sorry?
According to my sources, I heard I was cast for the leading role.
- No way. - It's just what I heard.
- The leading actor can't be short. - That can't happen.
Can't baseball players be short?
(It's a good thing I didn't accept it.)
As someone who is fated to support other people,
Kyung Hwan should be well-informed about the job market.
Since Kyu Hyun is going to the army,
you said you are the perfect fit for the job.
- Really? - You didn't make it to the list...
of 100 candidates for this show.
- This is true. - Yes.
You were never mentioned in the discussion.
- Kyung Hwan. - We started with 100 candidates.
- You weren't 1 of them. - I was probably ranked 103rd.
- Do you know who ranked 100th? - Exactly.
- Chars was ranked 100th. - Chars?
- Chars? - Chars doesn't...
- even work in this field anymore. - He was on the list.
You weren't one of the candidates.
- Chars? - He was the margin line.
It's been five years Kyu Hyun has been starring on this show.
When he started to work on this show, I joined "Mamma Mia"...
- in place of him. - That's right.
I once filled in his position before.
- I can fill this position too. - I see.
- But that show ended though. - I should have joined earlier.
- Didn't it end in 2013? - Yes, it did.
I starred on a show "Barefooted Friends". It ended with yours too.
- At the same time? - Yes.
Why do these hosts have such a great memory?
(They only remember things I want to forget.)
Ye Sung, you said you are not interested in the position though.
Well, the thing is...
I don't think I am talented in hosting shows.
- Aren't you being too serious? - We are on the same page for this.
Yes, we are.
He's good at singing.
- I agree. - You're good at singing and acting.
I think...
if I were to take his position, I have to...
know how to tease people and when I tease them,
the viewers have to find me pleasant.
- That's how hosts should be. - I don't think I'd fit the role.
So I strongly recommended Shin Dong.
Actually, I recommended him too.
The staff members aren't too fond of the idea.
(He's criticized all of a sudden.)
- Ye Sung. - Yes.
You started off as the lead singer in Super Junior.
You became a second stringer of the second stringers...
because of Kyu Hyun and Ryeo Wook.
- No. I'm still a lead singer. - He's still a lead singer.
It just feels like you have taken the back seat.
- Even your seat today... - No, he is still the lead singer.
- He tends to stick to the script. - That's right.
- If he says so, it is then. - He is still the main singer,
but the public thinks Kyu Hyun and Ryeo Wook are more popular.
Ye Sung, I really like your voice.
- Thank you. - But...
- Do you know his part of the songs? - Yes.
- You don't listen to them. - No, I listened to them a lot.
- No, you don't. - Yes, I do.
- Sing his part then. - No way.
- You've never listened to them. - I don't know about Super Junior...
- You've never heard the songs. - I know their songs.
When he starts singing, I find his voice extremely pleasant.
- So what are his parts? - Sing the part you remember.
- I have my own songs too. - Your own songs?
- Those songs are great. - I have my own songs too.
Great?
How can you say they are great?
I have listened to his songs, you dummy.
When other members took the center stage,
Ye Sung used to sing dutifully with me in the back.
- It was me, him, and Ryeo Wook. - But the thing is...
- Handsome members were in front. - When a V-shaped line was formed,
The three of us made another V-shaped line in the back.
The V-shaped line that was hidden.
- Inside the line? - That's right.
- You were between members. - We had to sing.
- But during our first album, - You're right.
when I sang, other members moved to the front of the stage.
- That member was Lee Teuk. - During our first album,
- I wasn't even in the music video. - Really?
- That's why when we took photos, - That must have baffled you.
I always had to stand on the side.
Shin Dong and I were on each side.
At one point, I felt comfortable being on the side.
I bet you will be in the center when you get married though.
He can't stand on the side at his wedding.
- It would be funny, though. - At his wedding...
- Choi Si Won is in the middle. - Members will stand in the center.
(This is bitter.)
Ye Sung, this is what you said.
You said you were the reason of Super Junior's success.
Although I am a member, this is my first time hearing it. Elaborate.
When we first started out as a group,
since the members who were supposed to get the spotlight...
got the spotlight with my sacrifice.
- Be confident, Ye Sung. - In the beginning...
- He's kindhearted. - He had to sacrifice.
- Ye Sung, be confident. - Handsome members could...
make themselves known to the viewers.
- Which member was most famous? - At first,
- Kim Hee Chul, Si Won, and... - Si Won. And?
- Was it Lee Teuk? - No, the truth is...
- They already said his name. - It was Kang In.
- At first, he was the most famous. - It was Kang In in the beginning.
- At first, he was a hot issue. - Yes, that's correct.
- And... - Let's avoid using that expression.
Okay.
- He was a hot issue, though. - That's what he did.
He's an expert in becoming a hot issue.
I heard that among members of Super Junior, Ye Sung...
is 1 of the best 3 members who make the most profits.
Do you mean "profits" as in money?
- That's right. - I suffered a big blow due to that.
What?
I went to the army at such a bad timing.
For those two years, they earned more than...
what I made in eight years.
(For those 2 years, I served in the army.)
- That's why... - Gosh, you are not loyal at all.
- He's not fortunate. - He really isn't.
- You and Kyung Hwan is a pair. - Really?
He is the icon of misfortune in our group.
That's why he always complains.
- Poor Ye Sung. - It was so unfortunate that...
when he served in the army, we became so popular in Japan.
So we toured in Japan and China.
No, we got popular before I was drafted to the army.
- I wasn't there... - When that happened to me...
when they had concerts in domes.
- You weren't in the concerts. - That's right.
When I was discharged from the army, other members went to the army.
It's been five years since our last concert.
But Ye Sung has expensive clothes the most, though.
Although he doesn't make a lot of money, he bought expensive clothes.
- You can't do that, Ye Sung. - But...
I did that because I'm interested in fashion,
and I haven't had a drink or gone out at night...
while other members drank and went clubbing.
- I don't meet people outside. - You spend your money on clothes?
- So I wear them at home by myself. - You don't even have money.
- You wear them at home? - I don't go out to meet people.
He's trying to save money.
- He's wearing them at home. - Ye Sung.
- His story is just too sad. - You'll hear it for the whole day.
I heard you've been gnashing your teeth because we hurt your pride.
Ryeo Wook starred on the show once.
You asked if Kyu Hyun and he went to the army, which member would sing.
Kyu Hyun and Ryeo Wook naturally answered that...
since I've been singing the most of the song, it would be all right.
But you said, "Ye Sung isn't enough." Then everyone laughed.
(It is the episode Ryeo Wook starred before his draft to the army.)
Who would be singing the most of the songs in your group?
- Will Ye Sung sing all on his own? - He should sing.
Ye Sung isn't enough.
I also laughed at that time.
I laughed at it, but when I went to bed,
- That must have bothered you. - I remembered people who laughed.
Then the blame is on the people who laughed.
To be honest,
I thought if I could be able to fill in the gaps that other members left.
- I couldn't sleep. - I understand.
You were intimidated because of Gu Ra, right?
- No, that's not true. - I wasn't intimidated.
- It motivated him. - It just made me think that.
You can't ever get out of a perspective of a supporting role.
Gu Ra takes care of people, but his method is a bit odd.
I sent him a text to tell him that filming was fun and to thank him.
He told me I did a good job and to take care of Yeom Gyeong Hwan.
In the text message, it said, "Take care of Yeom Gyeong Hwan."
- I wasn't sure what he was trying. - I thought he was cursing at me.
- I was joking. - Right, this was a joke.
- It's a joke from a comedian. - It was out of nowhere.
I saw this joke that no one would be able to read.
I didn't know how to react to it,
- so I didn't reply. - Their names are the same.
That's right. Their names are the same.
I want to be funny even if no one is watching.
(This is his passion for comedy.)
When I look at him,
- He's handsome. - he's good-looking.
- He's really handsome. - How tall are you?
- I think your height is 185cm. - It's 187cm.
- Gosh, you are so cool. - Kyung Hwan, can you stand up?
- Why? - Why should I stand up for him?
- Just because. - Stand next to him.
- Just stand up. - Let us see it.
The difference should be 17cm.
- Be supportive and stand up. - Do I stand up too?
(He gets up.)
He was tall.
I think the difference is more than 17cm.
- It's about 20cm. - He has a great physique.
He really does have a great body.
- Oh, my. You are handsome. - He is good-looking.
You were in the center of the attention. You were funny just now.
- He was still the supporting role. - If this is the leading role,
I would just take the supporting role.
I'd have figured a lot of girls chased after you, but you don't...
- have any number of actresses. - Oh, really?
- Do you exchange emails? - Long time ago, we used to...
exchange numbers when we get close.
An actress and I became friends through a drama.
We went to karaoke and drank.
A friend of the actress joined us.
but when she joined us, she was quite drunk.
- She was drunk. - Yes.
But I guess her friend got the wrong idea.
She must have thought that I was just playing with the actress.
- That was her opinion. - Yes.
All of a sudden, she lifted the ashtray next to her.
She said, "You, Dong Wook! You can't live like this."
She threw the ashtray at me.
- Out of nowhere? - Yes.
She must have thought you hurt the actress' feelings.
Yes. The ashtray broke into pieces right behind me. I was shocked.
I realized that I shouldn't meet them in private.
Ever since that incident,
- I film and say hi to my coworkers. - It was only an ashtray.
- What do you mean "only"? - From my point of view,
it is a serious incident,
but the important pleasure of a man...
is meeting beautiful women. So because of a mere ashtray,
you gave your opportunity up...
- for happiness and joy. - Are you that happy to meet women?
So is that why you wasted your shot at it?
- Gu Ra... - But...
when I see actresses, I see them as my colleagues.
I find people who are not in this profession more attractive.
- He's just like you too. - Right.
- You know what I mean, don't you? - They are so alike.
- You and he are so similar. - From them...
He's the icon of ordinary citizens.
(He's the icon of ordinary citizens.)
After that incident, we met on a drama,
but she didn't remember it.
Wait. So the one who threw the ashtray was an actress too?
- Yes. - There were two actresses.
Could she have liked him?
In my opinion, I think she probably liked him.
Could she have liked throwing... That's probably not true.
- Just go. - I'm planning to.
- I'm going to go. - Go if this is how you'll work.
- Let me work just a bit more. - Gosh.
- Leave on a good note. - Exactly.
(I want to do that too.)
You are very good-looking.
You've been turned down for a role because you were too handsome?
- Oh, I see. - You didn't look manly enough.
There were two times I could have worked on a drama from MBC.
They were "What's up, Fox?"...
and "Hit".
(They were successful in 2000.)
I was already cast for the leading roles.
- You were? - Yes.
One thing led to another and the director said,
"I'm sorry, but I think..."
- "she might look too old for you." - Because of the age gap?
He was worried about that.
Ko Hyun Jung coincidentally starred on the drama.
Both of his love interest was her.
You should have just said her name.
- I'm sure she had her reasons. - I bet.
- This is understandable. - So...
Please don't turn me down next time.
That was abrupt. Did he just send her a video message?
- I really like you as an actress. - He's from the past.
All of a sudden, now he has realized this isn't the past.
- He sent a video message. - He's slowly learning.
He will be a great fit for "The Johnny Yune Show".
(He will be a great fit for "The Johnny Yune Show".)
Dong Wook, I really enjoyed watching this drama.
- He was on "War of Money". - Park Shin Yang was on it.
I heard you left behind a lot of great lines.
"You have about three dollars in your heart."
"We are actresses who are looking for food."
"This is a modern diaper."
I'm sorry. What do all these mean?
- Can you tell us? - I had braces at that time.
- Braces? - Yes.
This is how I was supposed to deliver my lines.
"Everyone has at least a wound in their heart."
- It was wound. - Yes.
- It was wound, not three dollars. - This is how I should've said it.
Because of his braces, "wound" became "three dollars".
It was because of my braces. In the synopsis, under the character...
description, it says I'm a handsome guy who is hiding claws of a beast.
The writer told me that my character would be developed during the show.
My part didn't increase even after four episodes.
I screamed a line when I was supposed to use a low-pitched tone.
"Everyone has at least a wound in their heart!"
I screamed the line.
"Writer, Look at me. I'm here." I was screaming for the writer.
- I yelled. - He's just a bit confused now.
This is more than just a bit.
- He's back from the past. - He's overwhelmed in confusion.
All right.
After that scene, my part started to increase a lot.
My role was as big as Shin Yang's.
(He's manly.)
(You have about three dollars in your heart.)
(We are actresses who are looking for food.)
- It was because of your braces. - Yes, but...
My pronunciation wasn't clear. Since I couldn't take them out,
I practiced my pronunciation biting a pen so much that It left a mark.
The director came to me...
and told me that the rouge was smeared around my mouth.
- It got so red. - It was red.
- Rouge? - Yes.
- It left a mark. - I haven't heard the word for ages.
- Rouge? - Oh, the lipstick.
- It was called rouge. - I see.
He really is a man from the past.
It's easier for me to understand.
As soon as the drama ended,
I took out the braces I had and exchanged them for laminated ones.
I was in a hurry and after I got them exchanged,
I took two years off because I hurt my back.
I didn't know that happened.
He changed them into laminated ones,
- but he hurt his back. - Right, he did.
- That was all for nothing. - Starting now,
only good things will happen to you.
Thank you.
He's the best at delivering the lines without meaning any of it.
(Please star on dramas.)
Dae Chul, in a way, this person is your life savior.
She's Writer Moon Young Nam.
There are some things she acknowledged you of.
She acknowledged you of being sad and pathetic.
I went for an audition thinking that it would be my last audition.
- I had to read lines. - Right.
- I was so nervous. - You kept glancing at them too.
During the audition, I thought inside my head...
that I didn't get the role.
I could sense it during the audition.
- You felt it. - Yes.
She told me that this behavior made me look so pathetic.
- When you checked their reactions? - Yes.
She thought that I was innocent,
and she wanted to draw a character for me.
Is that why you delivered the acting of your life?
What is this ramyeon scene about? This was the start of your career.
It was the first scene of the first filming.
Na Moon Hee played my character's mother.
I had to wake her up.
"Mom, wake up. You should eat."
"Why are you lying there? Eat your meal." I had to say this line.
I was too nervous and I couldn't get the lines out of me.
- You couldn't call her Mom? - I couldn't say the lines.
Even though she's your mother, you were too careful.
We had to act the scene again a few times,
and she said, "He can't do this."
- You must have felt so small. - That would drive you crazy.
- After that, - That was quite harsh.
- I sort of cried to be honest. - I understand.
So I tried to act.
The intercom system was turned on.
The director told me to come up.
- It's such a scary atmosphere. - This is no joke.
The director didn't look so happy.
He said that my part could be cut out if I kept making mistakes.
- At that time, my heart pounded. - It probably did.
(They are like watching a drama.)
He told me that we would try one more time.
He gave you a chance.
Was the line hard?
- It was, "Mom, wake up." - "You should eat" was it.
- "Mom, wake up. What's wrong?" - He just said it.
- "Why are you doing this?" - He memorized them all.
- "I have to go to work. Goodness." - It was short.
Anyway, after that, I managed to say the lines.
He said that we would shoot the next scene since we were in a hurry.
The next scene...
Jang Yong played my character's brother.
He called me in,
and I had to cry as he gave me advice.
You were about to anyway.
- When he said his lines, I was... - You cried instantly?
- not acting. I cried right away. - You felt sad.
How long do you think our mom has left in this world?
(He comforted immature Dae Chul in the drama.)
She should see you get married and become a father.
(A wave of sorrow swept over him.)
(His performance of this crying scene seems quite experienced.)
And then the intercom was turned on again.
The director told me to come up.
"This is what I'm talking about."
- I think... - He should have said it then.
Why would he make you come up?
- You weren't acting. You were sad. - He was overwhelmed with sadness.
He told me that was my best performance throughout 50 episodes.
The director said that.
- You cried because you were sad. - Exactly.
Moon Hee called me when it was about 18th episode.
Her character had children in the drama.
She said she only waited for the scenes that she'd be acting with me.
She told me she had fun watching me and complimented me.
I have a colleague...
- named Lee Won Goo. - I know Won Goo.
It's a big deal for new comedians to perform on stage.
He played a thug.
When we pass by him, he had to say, "What is this?"
- "What is this?" - It wasn't even that.
He just had to look at us and we would have to act scared.
The show started with an audience of 1,000 people.
He was so nervous.
He just passed by us.
He was such a great thug.
- He just passed by us. - I think...
- he just forgot. - This is so funny.
I bet he was practicing before the show...
- and forgot on the stage. - He didn't look at you?
So what happened?
- We pretended to see a thug. - My goodness.
- You just said it. - He had to act after that.
- He's an amazing thug. - Due to him, the segment was cut.
(The segment got cut.)
You told us that you were a dancer.
You started dancing because of a nude model. Is it true?
- What? - Is it what I think...
My mom called me in when I was in high school.
She said that I should go to college since I was the only son.
People keep calling you in.
Your mom called you in.
- You should go then. - "Come here. Sit down."
- "You won't get into college." - His face encourages me to do that.
My sister majored in Photography.
She told me that I should at least go to a university.
I told her that I couldn't get in with my grades.
I guess...
She had an assignment and it was to take photos of a person.
I was naked and only had leaves on my nipples. She took my photos.
When she saw my body, she said I should be a dancer.
Your sister seems to be able to see things beyond the present.
I wouldn't say she's normal.
She can see things beyond the present.
- She saw a dancer's body. - Why don't you look it up?
No, thank you. It's a hassle.
Since he will join the army,
- he is defying me. - Kyu Hyun isn't your secretary.
- He isn't your secretary. - You looked things up so far.
I won't this time. Go on.
Your sister made a suggestion.
I went to the dance academy at my sister's suggestion.
An older girl was dancing.
- I stared for about 30 minutes. - You found a passion.
Yes. It was very cool.
I decided to learn dance. I signed up for classes...
and learned dance with diligence.
I entered Hanyang University at the top of my class.
- You were the top of your class. - That's pretty sudden.
- The top of dance department. - Yes, I worked very hard back then.
There is a comedian named Lim Jong Kook.
- I have never heard of him. - He is a comedian.
What does he have to do with Dae Chul?
He went to Hanyang University too.
- Did he major in Dance? - Yes. His name is Lim Jong Kook.
- Look him up. - Look him up.
- Look up Lim Jong Kook. - It's a hassle.
Look him up. Hurry up and do it.
Look up Lim Jong Kook.
That's right. He majored in Dance.
Lim Jong Kook.
You entered the department at the top of your class.
- Yes. At that time, - That's impressive.
they waived your military service if you won at Dong Ah Competition.
- They did that for men. - I see.
- Really? - Yes.
- What's the competition called? - Dong Ah Competition.
- Will you try the same method? - Look it up.
- "Dong Ah Competition waiver". - Will it take more than a day?
(See you two years later.)
I practiced to enter the competition.
I came in first during the preliminaries.
A week before the competition, I hurt my arm...
and ended up placing last. I stopped everything then...
and started to act.
(Dae Chul started to act.)
I realized I wouldn't go far in dance.
(I see.)
You still have talent from the days you placed first.
Why don't you show us your dance?
- Me? - Yes. Let's take a look.
I gained weight since then.
Okay. We will keep that in mind.
I need a partner for this dance.
- A female partner. - You should do it.
I can't play a woman.
All right.
Will you lift up your partner?
Yes. You are the lightest.
He is like Kang Sue Jin.
- Kang Sue Jin? - Don't say anything.
- Kang Sue Jin. - Kang Sue Jin.
- Kang Sue Jin. - Kang Sue Jin, not Kang Su Sie.
I will follow if you tell me how the dance goes.
Gook Jin, please stand like this.
- You are a woman in waiting. - Like this?
- He looks nice. - Am I doing this right?
You are waiting.
When I hold out my hand after the solo dance,
run towards me and kick out your right foot.
- I will catch you. - He will catch you.
- Let's try it. - Give it a go.
That's right.
(The female lead flew.)
Try again.
Didn't I do a good job?
This is nice.
(Longing)
My goodness.
He moves like a dancer.
(He looks forward to seeing an ex-lover in 20 years.)
(He still has dance skills.)
My goodness.
(Amazing)
Be careful.
He has dance skills.
- All right. - He was in competitions.
(Reunion)
(My goodness.)
(The lovers were united at last.)
Look at Gook Jin.
(Jumping)
(Laughing)
(He feels like he is on top of the world.)
Look at Gook Jin.
(Despite future hardships...)
(and recurring mistakes,)
(the lovers will continue to be graceful.)
Look at Gook Jin.
(Let us love each other.)
(Crashing)
(I am sorry. I am not as powerful as I used to be.)
What a nice pose! You feel dizzy, right?
This will be a meme.
- This will be a meme. - This will be a meme.
This will be a meme.
You will see it when you are in the army.
How many times did I spin?
You will see it when you are in the army.
- You spun many times. - This will be a meme.
It has been a while since we had slapstick comedy on the show.
(It was a good slapstick comedy.)
How many times did I spin? It was impressive.
He has strong legs.
I am okay. I just feel a bit dizzy.
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
The next guest was born to be a supporting MC.
(The next guest was born to be a supporting MC.)
He has natural talent for it.
- He was born with it. - That's right.
This show solidified that image.
How did you know that we were talking about you?
He is a natural-born supporting MC.
(I know.)
Being a supporting MC all the time left you traumatized.
For a year and a half, I worked as a supporting MC for "Happy Together".
The experience made me look back on my life.
I told everything during that time.
I talked to the scriptwriter of Radio Star for over two hours.
She continued to say, "We have heard that story before."
Why did you talk so much if you were the supporting MC?
That was the only way to survive.
The main MCs would ask questions.
If the guests' answers aren't good, the questions would come to us.
I see.
Talking for two years and a half made me run out of stories.
- You ran out of stories. - I ended up doing this...
- when Jae Seok looked at me. - You averted your eyes.
You averted your eyes.
I did that during the shoot.
I passed down my job to Sae Ho...
since I ran out of stories.
- Sae Ho is struggling too. - You could have done...
what Shin Jung Hwan did. Whenever Gu Ra looked at him,
he went, "What? Why?" You should try it.
Jae Seok is a senior comedian...
who is kind and well-received. If I go against him,
I will plummet to the bottom.
(I will plummet to the bottom.)
The shoot of "Happy Together" takes place on Saturdays.
That means I was always ready to go out and play...
after the shoot. It made me happy to earn money and play.
However, if I failed to make people laugh three times,
I went home and reflected on myself.
My manager knows that I go home if I wasn't funny that day.
My manager can't even breathe when that happens.
Did you go home often after the shoot of "Happy Together"?
- You ran out of stories. - Towards the end,
my manager took me home without asking.
(His manager took him home without asking.)
You have been friends with Park Sung Kwang...
for 11 years.
He also has a strong image of a supporting MC.
It's worse with him.
You decided to reveal his weakness for your screen time today.
He is a tattler.
He tattles everything he has heard.
- My goodness. - He is like Gu Ra.
I don't tattle.
Okay. Anyway,
there is a reason I can't work with him.
He is a tattler. This happened in Sillim-dong...
when we weren't well-known.
We were drinking soju...
when men who looked like thugs visited our table...
and asked for a picture.
I had my back turned. They said to Sung Kwang,
"Park Sung Kwang, let's take picture together."
"I can't do that since my face is red from drinking."
"I can give you my autograph."
"I don't need your autograph. Let's take a picture together."
"No, I don't want to be in the picture."
"Fine." He returned to his table.
We resumed drinking when that man swore.
He was angry...
to be turned down by a pretty obscure celebrity.
"Why would he refuse to take a picture with me?"
Park Sung Kwang is from Sillim-dong.
In the corner of the pub,
sat a real thug.
"Sung Kwang, what is going on?" "Hello."
- "This man..." - He tattled right away.
"He got angry at me for refusing to take a picture with him."
"Which group do you belong to?"
Sung Kwang's acquaintance had a higher rank.
He slapped the other man.
I was shocked.
- "My goodness." - It escalated.
Sung Kwang should have ignored him.
He escalated the situation.
The man who wanted a picture was scary too.
After he got slapped, he whispered in Sung Kwang's ear.
"I will kill you if I see you again."
Sung Kwang should have ignored him. Instead, he said,
"He said he will kill me!"
He summoned his acquaintance again.
His acquaintance ended up giving the man a beating outside.
(Their fight grew big.)
It was a ruckus. He repeats what he has heard.
We were at a pub that is close to my home.
Sung Kwang lives far away.
For two months, I avoided the area.
- You tried not to run into the man. - That's right.
It's better to be...
a tattler like Sung Kwang. Other people can't pick on him.
He repeats what he has heard.
I know.
(I will tattle if you pick on me.)
Ye Sung, you got so used to being...
the second in line as a trainee...
that you almost failed to debut.
(Loading)
- Me? - Yes.
It's about you when you trained at SM Entertainment.
(Dazed)
- He doesn't remember. - We should move on.
I have a few more stories left.
(Me too.)
I joined SM Entertainment in 2001.
I thought I would debut right away,
but there were many trainees who had joined like me.
There were dozens.
Trainees like Eun Hyuk gave me hope.
However, Shin Dong made me...
very nervous.
"He must be an incredible singer."
I was picked as the lead vocalist.
"Could he be Pavarotti?"
(He is in charge of variety shows.)
Throughout my years as a trainee,
I had many ups and downs.
The agency told us that our debut is near...
and sent me and two other trainees...
to the music academy SM Entertainment had founded.
We were told to hide our trainee status.
That way, our debut...
would promote the academy.
He was an undercover trainee.
After 2 or 3 months,
the two trainees I was with stopped coming to the academy.
Then I got a call.
"We got picked and are preparing for a debut."
I didn't know what to do, so I took classes...
at the academy for a year.
It's like "Infernal Affairs".
I took classes at the academy for a year...
- without missing a day. - You did that.
Even after that,
the agency didn't call me.
- That's ridiculous. - I went to the academy.
The employees who had sent me to the academy were gone.
- The new employees had come. - That's sad.
In Super Junior...
- Are you moving on already? - You will get to talk more later.
You talked for a long time.
- You talked for a long time. - We asked you...
five questions.
I was about to go home.
You took 10 minutes per question.
You are a supporting character...
- in a drama too. - I didn't know you acted.
He starred in "Awl" and "Voice".
You were in dramas.
You said that your high-end acting skills...
were made possible by 10 years of hard work.
Because there was a member like Si Won in the team,
I didn't have a chance to act.
I liked watching movies more than anyone.
I have a little less than 6,000 DVDs at home.
- 6,000 DVDs? - The living room...
- isn't big enough for them. - Really?
- I have them in boxes. - That's like a DVD room.
I had a dream of becoming an actor.
I got an opportunity after my military service...
and gave acting a try.
Didn't you practice getting stabbed at home?
I did that to make the members laugh.
- Show us. - Make us laugh.
You should make us laugh.
- No. - Make us laugh.
- Why would you ask me that? - Make us laugh.
- Kyu Hyun is going to the army. - Please prepare a plastic knife.
- Give it a go. - Do you want me to stab you?
- Stab him. - I can't do this now.
I will stab you.
- Show us. - I will stab him here.
Among the two supporting characters, who will be the lead?
Kyu Hyun, you saw this.
- He practiced it at home. - You should be the one to stab me.
- No. - Kyung Hwan is ready.
Don't be mean to him.
He is ready to go.
I am holding the knife.
- He is about to draw it. - It's not a longsword, is it?
- You need to stab me. - Which weapon am I using?
- Don't slice. Stab. - I need to stab you.
This is embarrassing.
(The war of supporting characters)
It's a longsword.
The world only needs one supporting character.
I am the supporting character.
Please do it properly.
It's not up to me.
- Do it right. - Your line is too long.
Don't give an ad-lib.
Stab me as you walk by.
Just stab him.
For someone who refused to do it, Ye Sung is very committed.
Kyung Hwan, do this right.
Let's go.
(The war of supporting characters)
(Their bloody fight continues.)
(Absorbed)
(They are acting with their veins and forehead.)
Keep going.
(They give it five stars.)
(He acts until the end.)
- My goodness. - Good job.
- It was impressive. - He did a good job.
Both of them wanted to be the main character.
The camera didn't know whom to focus on.
(Let me fill the screen by myself.)
Dae Chul,
when you starred in "People Is Good",
your beautiful wife became the talk of the town.
She is beautiful.
I heard that one-dollar pizza bread linked you and your wife.
I met her at the age of 21 right before I joined the army.
To give me a farewell party,
my friends told me to come to the first street of Anyang.
One-dollar pizza bread was sold on the street.
Since we were hungry, we went to eat pizza bread.
Two women were waiting for their order.
I took five dollars out of my pocket.
The owner gave me back two dollars.
I said, "Why do you give me 2 dollars when there are 5 people?"
"3 men and 2 women's orders make 5 dollars."
When I said that,
they said, "Thank you for the bread."
I was sad to see her leave.
I ran after her and asked for her number.
She said she has a boyfriend.
I thought we weren't meant to be.
When my friends and I came out of the first restaurant,
- we ran into her again. - You ran into her.
My wife's friend said, "To tell you the truth,"
"she doesn't have a boyfriend."
That's incredible.
"Why did you say that you have a boyfriend?"
"I am sorry. I didn't know what to say to a stranger."
I asked for her number. Did we have City Phones at the time?
City Phone. Gook Jin was in the commercial.
"Hello?"
"Are you in Anyang?"
- It only worked around pay phones. - Dong Wook likes City Phones.
He is a frozen man.
(He is a frozen man.)
Anyway, I asked her to meet me once.
- We dated for eight years. - That's incredible.
It was meant to be.
Dae Chul, your wife's struggles made you swallow back tears...
when you were an unpopular actor.
It was hard to be a play actor with two children.
It's hard.
My wife said that I should remain in the theater.
She offered to work.
She started working as a salesperson at an outlet mall in Suwon.
Its symbol is a zebra.
She got a job.
- Stop making useless comment. - Its symbol is a zebra.
- That's the symbol. - You are tainting Radio Star.
She was doing the dishes after she came home.
When I looked at her legs, I saw that she had varicose veins...
from standing up 10 hours a day.
I said something cool.
- What did you say? - We want to know.
- What did you say? - Was it really cool?
The camera will zoom in on you.
Cue.
"Quit."
There must be more.
There is more. "Quit your job."
All right.
- I am not very entertaining. - That's not true.
- That's not true. - It was entertaining.
It's fitting of a supporting star. He lacks confidence.
He watches other people's reaction after he says something.
It was entertaining.
He still said everything he wants to say.
Dong Wook, the space occupied you during your break.
Yes.
You even wrote a novel about it.
Did the novel sell well?
- The novel? - Yes.
It sold better than I expected.
Is there a reason you became obsessed with space?
In 2006 or 2007, I went to Europe for a photoshoot.
Park Si Yeon sat next to me on the flight.
I had never met her before.
- She is incredibly beautiful. - Yes, she is.
I looked outside the window because it was awkward.
I saw something silver move and sparkle.
I looked closely, and it was a UFO.
It was a UFO. I am serious.
- An unidentified flying object. - Let's listen to him first.
I was so flustered that I looked next to me.
I had to tell someone. When I looked next to me,
I saw a beautiful woman I had met for the first time.
"Hey! There is a UFO."
It's a hard thing to say during the first meeting.
- What did it look like? - Silver light moved back and forth.
Its speed wasn't achievable...
- by aircraft of Earth. - It was otherworldly.
Yes. As I was writing the novel,
I met the director of Korea Aerospace Research Institute...
and told him the story.
He said, "I think you actually saw a UFO."
- He believed you. - You should have asked Si Yeon...
to look at the UFO.
You are right.
I bet you like Si Yeon.
- She is from my agency. - Had he not liked her,
he would have said, "Look at that!"
- She's in my agency. - "Did you see that?"
- He had feelings. - She was incredibly beautiful.
- I know. - She looked like a doll.
I wrote her a letter later.
At the postscript of my novel, I wrote about the incident.
Since I felt bad about including her in it,
I visited her agency with my novel and a letter.
I gave them to the agency, but she never wrote back.
What happened?
Didn't it happen before she joined Mystic Entertainment?
- No, it happened recently. - Really?
Why is your face turning red?
- We are busy. - I visited the agency.
The higher-ups intercepted it.
(The space is my refuge.)
It looks like Dong Wook has...
ideas of a scientist.
Your nickname was "Little Newton".
He is 187cm tall. Why was he called "Little Newton"?
He will show a specialty that is connected to gravity.
- That's interesting. - My goodness.
- What is it? - How is it connected to gravity?
- This is... - Little Newton.
Will you drop an apple and catch it with your mouth?
I haven't seen anyone do it on TV.
Here.
(Hanging)
Is that the specialty?
Little Newton.
- It's hard. - I know.
- Little Newton. - It's hard.
Little Newton.
(It's a specialty only Little Newton can do.)
Kyung Hwan was in charge of looking over physicals at Military Office.
- The physical exams? - That was your assignment?
- I was a public service worker. - You were in charge of that.
- At Military Manpower Office? - I was in military affairs bureau.
- Military affairs bureau. - Yes, at the time...
You didn't send out notices of enlistment?
No, I didn't.
- They talk at the office. - I consulted those who came.
- You must've taken a physical. - Yes.
Everyone says yes when I ask if they're unhealthy.
- "Who has poor eyesight?" - Everyone steps forward?
They all come out even if they have good eyesight.
- Is that so? - That's what I did too.
- They all step forward. - It's because...
This is what I did.
"Tell me if you see a number or an animal."
"Point where the open end of C is, all right?"
"You see this stick, right?"
"Okay, go back in."
If they could see the stick, I told them to go back in.
- That means they can see well. - They answered without realizing.
Was that the policy, or did you come up with it yourself?
That's what they did there.
Everyone could tell that they were lying.
Seeing the stick meant you could join the army.
After that, I do...
I'd ask if anyone has trouble with hearing.
"Who has poor hearing?" Everyone came out again.
Even the ones in the back ran up to me even though I spoke quietly.
(Everyone came forward even though he spoke quietly.)
- They'll all go back. - "Have a seat. Look to your front."
"Raise your arm where you hear my clap, okay?"
"Your hearing is fine. Go back in."
- You were pretty good at it. - Right.
You can join the army if you can hear that much.
You didn't talk to them casually though, did you?
He did.
The doctors did. I didn't do it.
The doctors did that.
Why did you talk like you did it?
- I thought... - I was beside them.
- How dare could I say that? - Exactly.
- See? I thought... - I thought the same.
- I thought Kyung Hwan did that. - That's not it.
That's why I was confused. He was only 22 or 23 at that time.
How could he speak so casually to others?
Why are you so angry?
(I'm not angry.)
- Kyu Hyun will leave tomorrow, - That's right.
so we prepared eyewitness accounts of Kyu Hyun.
- Really? - Before he leaves.
- Seo Sang Mi sent this story. - Seo Sang Mi...
"At a club in Gangnam,"
"I saw Kyu Hyun."
"As the enthusiastic Kyu Hyun led, women followed him."
"It was like seeing Kyu Hyun Train."
That's like something they did in the old drama, "Shower".
"It was like seeing Kyu Hyun Train."
"He was dancing in the middle of numerous women."
He never danced on Radio Star although we asked so many times.
- That's where he dances. - "He seemed happy dancing."
- "I won't forget his smile." - Kyu Hyun Train.
You must be an ordinary woman to ride it, right?
(Enjoying himself)
- That's right. - Celebrities can't ride it.
Do people still do that in clubs?
It's difficult unless you're really popular.
How many people were on that train?
I even remember when it was.
- How many were on that train? - Excuse me?
- About 3, I think. - 3 people.
What kind of people were they?
- They were friends of my friend. - I knew he'd say that.
- Friends of his friend. - That's what they always say.
- They all say "friends" for women. - They're always "friends".
Do you ride the train together if they're friends of your friend?
- In my opinion... - Seriously,
I bet my hand that they're friends of my friend.
- So... - Give me your hand.
(Give me your hand.)
The one right behind him...
was probably a red herring.
People may misunderstand otherwise.
- He liked the girl last in line. - The third person...
- That was the woman he liked. - He probably looked back to see...
if the third person is still on the train.
If she is, he'd keep going.
This episode is the last gift for you.
(Thank you for the gift.)
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
We prepared this because 4 people who'll always be number 2 are here.
"The Song to Make Me Number One".
Let's start with Dae Chul's choice.
(You'll sing this song?)
- He'll show off his singing skills. - What?
This is totally unexpected.
Why did you choose this song?
- It was released in 1996 or so. - It was 1994.
I sang this song when I first met my wife.
In Anyang, you mean.
According to her, that's when she fell in love with me.
- It was your wife's request. - That's why I chose this song.
Normally, when guests are on our show,
about three of them sing. However, since they're supporting actors,
- everyone will sing. - They'll sing one song each.
- Four songs. - Otherwise, they'll be upset.
- Not everyone will sing. - Kyu Hyun will sing the last song.
- I see. - That's true.
- I don't really see why though. - I must perform before I leave.
Kyu Hyun will perform, then "Swamp" will be sung.
I don't think I'll get any air time.
(It somehow became competitive.)
Let's hear Dae Chul's "Swamp".
- You have to do a good job. - It's tough today.
(Shy)
(He gets into the song right away.)
Goodness.
- This is how she fell in love. - He must really love his wife.
"She was a wife".
(However, that wasn't important to me)
(Because true love only exists in one's imagination)
(I couldn't stop)
(Admiring)
(He wraps up the narration calmly.)
(Through the veiled curtains)
Nice.
(His exceptionally beautiful voice is revealed.)
- It's not bad. - Very nice.
(His mellow voice melts ladies' hearts.)
(His head voice comes out through his nose.)
(Back then)
(I know I need to go back)
This is nice.
(He delivers sophisticated falsetto with an innocent-looking face.)
(He's the middle-aged version of Park Bo Gum.)
(Humming)
He was good.
- He's... - He's very charming.
He chose the most appropriate song for the viewers of his drama.
Old ladies love this song.
- Isn't it hard to sing this song? - It's difficult.
It's difficult indeed.
Let's hear the song Dong Wook chose now.
("After Love" is Shin Sung Woo's song in his fifth album.)
- My gosh. - "After Love" by Shin Sung Woo.
- This isn't easy either. - Why did you choose this song?
I wanted to sing this song on "King of Mask Singer".
But you couldn't.
- You got eliminated. - I was eliminated before I could.
- You should sing it then. - I was more confident with this.
I...
(He got eliminated in the first round.)
(It was a performance he returned with after 7 years of break.)
- I couldn't sing this song. - I heard him sing on that show.
I think you might be able to get air time.
- That sounds nice. - It's possible.
Let's see who will claim the air time.
Why couldn't you sing it?
I was going to sing this song in the second round,
but the staff members said that the other song was better.
You sang the better one and that was the result you got?
(Shocked)
- "After Love". - All right.
- A song by Shin Dong Wook. - "After Love".
("After Love" by Shin Dong Wook)
(They lowered two keys.)
("After Love" by Shin Dong Wook)
(He will sing this old song with the sentiments of the past.)
(In life)
(Absorbed)
(Is he nodding?)
(You meet numerous people)
(His serious look is somehow funny.)
(He sounds like a goat.)
(He gradually starts to sound like a singer from the 90s.)
(However, I wanted to make you stay)
(By my side forever)
(Was that only my futile greed?)
(30 minutes added to the karaoke machine)
(I don't know yet)
(Like the way hope rose from darkness)
(I hope you'll be filled with happiness only)
(I'll pray for you)
- Thank you. - This will be a close one.
- Dong Wook's story was the best. - Also,
- he was so handsome when he sung. - He's so handsome.
- He's a strong candidate. - The way he stands is already cool.
- Exactly. - Thank you for the performance.
- Kyung Hwan. - Kyung Hwan.
Let's hear the song Kyung Hwan chose.
(What song did Kyung Hwan choose?)
("Ring Ring" is Kim Young Chul's song created by Radio Star.)
The song is too weak.
- The song is weak. - Will you give it another try?
- It's... - I chose this song...
so that those who supported Young Chul will regret it.
(However!)
(As he anticipated, his part got edited out.)
(You can check Kyung Hwan's "Ring Ring" on iMBC.)
Young Chul must be smiling with satisfaction.
People are wise indeed.
- Young Chul did it better. - Kyung Hwan lost.
(I blew it.)
It's Kyu Hyun's last time on Radio Star today.
He also prepared a song for the show.
Let's hear the song Kyu Hyun chose.
(It's my song.)
Can't we just listen to the song like this?
- He says he wants to sing it. - It's your new song.
("Goodbye For Now" is Kyu Hyun's last release before enlistment.)
- That's your new song? - "Goodbye For Now".
- The title's very appropriate too. - Very nice.
You need to promise the day you'll see us again.
Let's give him a round of applause for the stage.
("Goodbye For Now" by Kyu Hyun)
(I wonder what my love meant to you)
(I wonder if your day felt as short as mine)
(I still)
(Remember)
(How we loved each other so much)
(All the days I planned every night)
(I was afraid I'd burst into a flood of tears)
(He's not verified yet.)
(The new host has been selected by us, the hosts of Radio Star.)
(I know it's a temporary position, but I'm aiming for a permanent job.)
(I'm Kyu Hyun, the youngest member of Super Junior.)
(Look forward to seeing me, let's go)
(Adorable)
(Lee Hyo Ri graced Radio Star with her presence.)
(Sayuri)
(Jung Ju Ri)
(Radio Star will last forever thanks to you all.)
(Cold)
(He bit his tongue and worked hard to do what he can't.)
(I was startled upon seeing him today.)
(Growing with Radio Star,)
(the youngest host was acknowledged by everyone.)
(He comes at his senior hosts well.)
(It was really nice to see that.)
(It's not easy.)
(Such brazen character is charming too.)
(I think about being on Radio Star all week.)
(I became well-known through Radio Star.)
(I got more chances to sing because of this show.)
(I pictured the day)
(We'll meet again endless times)
(Kyu Hyun was loved more during the last five years.)
(This is his last letter to express his gratitude for the viewers.)
(I pictured the day)
(We'll meet again)
- Goodness. - He's a good singer indeed.
Why did you lip-sync?
- Excuse me? - Didn't you lip-sync?
- No, I didn't. - Are you sure?
- Kyu Hyun is a good singer. - That's right.
We better promise to meet...
- Kyu Hyun again. - Exactly.
Okay. "Era of Supporting Stars,'"
"Don't Tease Me for Placing Second Special".
Tell us what you thought. Let's start from Dae Chul.
I was hoping...
to be funnier and to have fun,
but since I'm a poor speaker...
- No, you're not. - I was glad to be here. Thank you.
(Thank you for having me today!)
Dong Wook.
I was worried that everyone would be harsh, but that wasn't the case.
I was really nervous,
but it was delightful and peaceful. I had a lot of fun.
I'll look forward to watching "The Guardian".
I really hope that you won't be ill.
All right. Thank you.
- And... - Please watch "The Guardian".
- The last pose is this one indeed. - He really was frozen in the past.
- "The Guardian". - He had to squeeze in between.
He's a frozen man indeed.
Kyung Hwan, what did you think about the show?
I didn't share all the stories I had prepared for today.
- No, no. - You did talk a lot today.
Let go of your greed now.
- I couldn't share 13 stories. - Let go of it.
If you give me a chance once again, I'd like to be on the main stage.
- Thanks for having me today. - You were funny.
I really had a lot of fun.
Ye Sung.
Actually, since it was Kyu Hyun's last day,
it was more meaningful to me.
When I come back on the show with the other members,
I'll share a lot of good stories. Thank you.
He's been with us every Wednesday night for nearly six years.
- Kyu Hyun will be away for a while. - That's right.
We must hear your thoughts.
- Don't cry. - In fact, for almost six years,
with an objective of making others laugh,
I must have hurt a lot of people.
- That's how this show is, though. - It was unbelievable.
- He hurt so many people. - I'd like to apologize to them.
I especially want to thank the hosts. Gook Jin...
was warm like my big brother, my uncle, and my dad.
- He embraced me. - He was like your dad and uncle.
Jong Shin's original wit...
and naughty jokes...
Lean back when he's talking about me.
(I'm sorry.)
He gave me so much inspiration.
Thank you, Jong Shin. Gu Ra,
seeing you by your side was very touching.
It's amazing how you put up with all the criticism...
It's a very tough position.
(He's proud.)
(Kyu Hyun learned a lot thanks to Gu Ra.)
I learned a lot from him.
Finally, I'd like to thank the viewers so far.
He's worked hard.
Good job. Let's give him a round of applause.
Take care.
Manage all your remaining schedule well.
- The private... - Today...
(The staff members prepared a cake for Kyu Hyun.)
- Is it me? - Kyu Hyun.
- My goodness. - Is it me beside him?
- No, it's me. - It's me.
- It looks like me. - Isn't this me?
- They're both Kyu Hyun. - You've made two Kyu Hyun?
One's him as a singer, and the other one's him as a host.
- Is that so? - Yes.
Thank you.
I'd like to pass Marilyn Monroe's message...
to all of you who were the heroes of Radio Star today.
"We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle."
You do your best wherever you are.
We hope you'll become the brightest stars.
We will say goodbye here.
See you next week.
Kyu Hyun, we'll see you in two years.
- Please. - Goodbye.
