("Hot Brothers on Radio Star")
(Kang Ha Neul with heartwarming stories is back!)
(I want to hear horrible stories about him this time!)
(I wanted to stop hearing heartwarming stories about me!)
(I like how he talks. He improved.)
(Ha Neul calls Park Seo Jun to hear a horrible story about himself.)
(I don't want to see him again.)
(Actor Dong Ha's first time on a variety show!)
(He reveals his weird talents.)
(You did your best, but it wasn't funny.)
(Min Kyung Hoon of Buzz, the living legend)

(The impromptu fan event of the legendary Buzz!)

(You may think you're average, but you could be below average.)
(You were pushed back, and ended up behind everyone else.)
(Are you really going to keep going on like this?)
(Laughing)
(Romantic, scary, bizarre, and enjoyable)
("Hot Brothers on Radio Star" begins now.)
Every Wednesday night, we meet with hot stars,
and give you a good laugh. This is a high-end talk show,
- Radio Star. - Radio Star.
Our today's special MC is...
Solbi, the Roman princess.
- She's here with us today. - Is she the first female MC?
- Yes, she is. - That's right.
- Please say hello to the viewers. - No woman was allowed to sit there.
- Don't you think of her as a woman? - It's not like that.
- She's a beautiful woman. - I see.
Solbi and I used to...
appear on "Sunday Night".
We hosted a segment together.
- "Nothing Is Impossible". - Oh, right. In the segment,
we had a match called "Gu Ra and Solbi's War".
Don't you think that segment would be a big hit now?
Please don't say such a thing.
(All right.)
Solbi, are you confident that you'll be a feisty host today?
I'm not going to enlist in the military,
so you don't have to worry about it. That's not all.
As Radio Star is...
a long-running TV show now,
I think I can give a refreshing change...
- to this show. - Let's move on now.
(Of course.)
Today, we invited four hot stars who have taken over...
- the entertainment industry. - They're hot stars.
Today's theme is "Hot Brothers on Radio Star".
Our first guest is a great actor...
whom every film director wants to cast.
Everything he says is so boring that he makes us feel sleepy,
but heartwarming stories about him like Yu Jae Seok and Park Bo Gum...
allow him to get a lot of air time. Kang Ha Neul with a big heart.
Among all the guests on Radio Star,
- he has the most beautiful stories. - After his appearance on our show,
many heartwarming stories about him were told on other shows.
Let's not tell any more heartwarming stories about him.
I hope we'll hear some horrible stories about him today...
instead of heartwarming stories.
He's an amazing up-and-coming actor who won the viewers' hearts...
with his intense eyes and outstanding acting skills.
He's only 26 years old,
but he performed with Namkoong Min in "Chief Kim",
and Ji Chang Wook in "Suspicious Partner". He looks older than he is.
Dong Ha with an old looking face.
- Dong Ha. - I've never met him before.
Me neither. Next up is...
the vocalist of Buzz, the first pretty boy band in Korea.
His songs are every man's favorite songs to sing in a karaoke.
He became a popular entertainer through "Men on a Mission",
but he once made a big mistake while performing on stage.
He sang, "You can't see the lan."
- "You can't see the lan." - Yes.
(He got confused about the lyrics, and mixed "love" and "man".)
He's been suffering ever since. The Lan Brother,
- Min Kyung Hoon is here. - That's why he's Lan Brother.
Min Kyung Hoon.
I have a feeling that he'll be funny.
Let me introduce our next guest.
Just like his song lyrics, "I'm all alone",
he became alone at home all day long.
Even though he never goes out, he's so popular in China.
He's the true Korean Wave star.
Korean Wave star brother, Jung Yong Hwa!
(Korean Wave star brother, Jung Yong Hwa!)
- "Jung Yong Hwa!" - "Jung Yong Hwa!"
That was good.
They brighten up the studio.
- Welcome. - Hello.
- They're all handsome. - Exactly.
- They lightened up the mood. - Can I just sit here?
The four popular stars are here.
Starting with Ha Neul, please say hello to the viewers.
Hello, everyone.
I'm honored to be here again after a long time.
Thank you for inviting me again. I'm Kang Ha Neul. Hello.
The movie in which you perform with Park Seo Jun will be released soon.
- Park Seo Jun? What's the title? - Yes.
- It's "Midnight Runners". - "Midnight Runners".
That's right.
- Because of the new blockbusters, - Many blockbusters were released.
probably there aren't many theaters to play his movie.
(Laughing)
- Really? - Movies like "Battleship Island".
- You have no choice. - Why would you say that?
I don't know about that.
I'm sure you don't want to know.
- It's not that. - Why did you pour cold water on it?
(That's my specialty.)
Dong Ha, please say hello.
- Hello. I'm Actor Dong Ha. - He looks charismatic.
I'm nervous as this is my first time on a variety show.
I'll do my best. I hope you'll enjoy the show.
He's very calm.
- He's relaxed. - He doesn't seem nervous.
Hello. I'm Min Kyung Hoon, the vocalist of Buzz.
- I came here eight years ago. - Exactly.
- So... - It's been eight years?
Yes, it's been eight years.
- Already? - I excited to have a good time.
- "Men on a Mission" revived him. - That's right.
It revived me?
It revived him?
It was eight years ago, but I remember Kyung Hoon.
- He said irrelevant things. - He did, indeed.
Since then, I... I'm sorry. Please say hello.
- It's okay. - Please go on.
- Let him say hello first. - He wouldn't mind.
- You're talking like a host now. - Finish what you were saying.
- We'll take care of that. - It's not like that.
- He hasn't said hello, so... - Please finish your story first.
Before I came here,
I worried so much...
that I had rashes all over my body as soon as I was invited.
- I was taken to the ER twice, - Because of Radio Star?
and had an IV injection three times. If you look at my arm,
I have bruises here.
As soon as I was invited to Radio Star, I started worrying.
Didn't you play a game and get hit because you lost?
A game?
- Yong Hwa, please say hello. - Yong Hwa.
- Okay. - Please say hello to the viewers.
It's been a long time since the last time I was here.
I'm Jung Yong Hwa. I'm happy to be here.
When did you last come on this show?
- Has it been 2 years? - It was 2 years ago.
- Two years ago. - I see.
Yong Hwa used to sit in the 1st or 2nd seat,
but he's sitting at the end today. This means something.
You have to be funny or peculiar when you sit in that seat.
(He feels pressured.)
He's one of the most sought after actors these days.
Also, there are so many heartwarming stories about him.
I heard there's a heartwarming story behind your appearance.
No, it's not like that. Not long ago,
I sent a congratulatory message...
for Radio Star's 10th anniversary.
I said in that video briefly that my friends told me...
that Gu Ra, Jong Shin, and Gook Jin...
mentioned me again on Radio Star.
I heard that so many times after my appearance on Radio Star.
My friends told me every time you mentioned me.
I wanted to thank you guys in person.
It's not that I want you to give us gifts or something else.
However, you did a lot of good deeds for other people,
but for us, you didn't...
- I'm sorry about that. - We've never received anything.
- It's not that we want something. - Okay.
We're always a little hungry before the show gets started.
- I'm sorry. - We don't want you to buy us food.
- Did you eat dinner? - Yes, I had a quick bite.
- We couldn't eat anything. - I didn't know that.
- We want a story like that. - I understand.
- "He repaid Radio Star's hosts." - How about...
he tells a story that he hasn't told on any other TV shows?
It would be good for the show.
- A heartwarming story? - Yes.
Solbi seems very enthusiastic to join Radio Star as a host.
- I think... - That was smooth.
she's planning to quit her show and join ours.
I see.
This is Dong Ha's first time on a variety show.
Hello.
Are you dazed?
- No. I'm just fascinated. - I see.
When I'm on the set filming a drama,
my senior actors felt like humans, but...
We don't feel like humans?
- It feels like... - It's more like a battlefield.
- That's right. - That's our own way.
It's interesting.
Dong Ha thinks he looks better in person.
He can accept any criticisms,
but he's afraid he might look ugly compared to Ha Neul.
That's true.
- I don't get it. - You're not ugly.
- You're not ugly. - Ha Neul is not...
- that handsome. - That's right.
- He has a beautiful heart instead. - He's not that handsome.
- You're good-looking. - He has a good personality though.
Why are you afraid you might look ugly next to him?
I happened to watch a movie that he played in.
After that, I watched all of his movies...
because he has great acting skills and I like his face.
You like his face?
- Yes. I think he's very handsome. - He likes Ha Neul's face.
Did you two meet each other for the first time?
- Yes. We haven't met before. - Yes.
Is Ha Neul older than Dong Ha?
Yes, I am.
Were you born in 1990?
- Yes, I was born in 1990. - I see.
- I was born in 1992. - In 1992?
You two are quite old compared to them.
Both of you used to be very young.
- Kyung Hoon isn't so young now. - I will...
- turn 30 next year. - Exactly.
They're not so young.
- You look so old all of a sudden. - I know.
Please put a partition between us.
- That's a good idea. - You've been...
admiring Ha Neul as an actor, right?
Yes, I have. I admire Kyung Hoon too.
He was a legend when I was younger.
- As the vocalist of Buzz? - He was every man's idol.
- Every man loves his songs. - Exactly.
Back in the days, he was so popular that I was...
Back in the days?
It's all in the past.
- I'm grateful for the attention. - "Sweet Dream".
I saw you on the game competition of celebrities.
Thank you for helping my son.
That's right. I helped him.
- Talk about personal matters... - That's so irrelevant.
when you're with him alone. Why would you say that on TV?
We should tell heartwarming stories about him too.
(Warmhearted Star 1, Warmhearted Star 2)
Kyung Hoon appears on...
"Men on a Mission". It's a very difficult show to host.
Is it difficult because of the other hosts?
He survived despite the difficulty of hosting the show.
- He's become... - That's true.
- a very popular entertainer. - I worried about him.
Among all the hosts of Radio Star,
he said he can rely most on Solbi.
She's around his age.
- We're the same age. - You're the same age?
- Yes. - We're the same age.
- Both of you were born in 1984. - Yes, we were.
- I have few celebrity friends, - I know.
and not many of them are female celebrities.
- Solbi is the only one. - Is that so?
How did you two become friends?
We exchanged our phone numbers.
One day, she said she was in Sokcho.
My workroom is in Sokcho.
- You appeared on "I Live Alone". - That's right.
- Please go on. - I wanted to see her,
- He texted me. - so I asked her where she was,
but she came back to Seoul.
I couldn't meet her.
- Did you go home? - Yes, I did.
You two wouldn't look great together as a couple.
- Pardon? - You wouldn't.
- We're good friends. - I know.
I don't think you two would be compatible.
Well...
- That's none of your business. - Are you disappointed?
It's not that I'm disappointed. Why would you speak that out?
I should speak out.
That's just what I think.
- You don't have to say it out loud. - Is that so?
That's funny.
(I won't do that again.)
Yong Hwa said he had nothing to lose on Radio Star two years ago.
He did anything to be funny on variety shows.
I heard he has his own philosophy on variety shows.
What kind of philosophy is it?
I should learn from him.
I always tell myself before a show gets started,
"Let's just be average."
- You avoid trying too much? - From a viewer's perspective,
when someone tries too much to get a lot of air time...
- It backfires. - Yes.
You may think you're average, but you could be below average.
That's possible.
If you aim to average, you'll likely be below average.
When I watch Radio Star on TV,
I try to see the big picture.
You talked so much about the big picture in the waiting room too.
- Yes, he did. - When you see the big picture...
- He must like pictures. - I try to see the big picture.
So I understand what he said.
When I appear on the show too many times,
I feel that it's too much.
Did you just realize that?
We felt that in the early days.
When I'm so funny that I keep making the guests laugh,
I hope Jong Shin will be funny the week after.
- I'm serious. - I've never worried about that.
- I mean it. - I've never thought that way.
- I understand. - I guess you once tried too much,
and it didn't work out well for you.
- Is that the reason? - I don't think that's me.
- Trying too much isn't my style. - I see.
Are you planning to remain average today as well?
- You need to... - I'll just do my best.
beat two other guests...
- to remain average. - Right.
Which ones do you expect to be below average?
(They're afraid Yong Hwa might choose them.)
Please don't ask a question like this.
- Seriously. - To be average,
- you need to... - This is why I aim to be average.
- I'll do my best. - All right.
- Please do your best. - Yes, I will.
Please draw the air time gauge in the corner,
and let us know if he gets below average.
Let's make a gauge that shows the fluctuation.
(Starting to monitor Yong Hwa's air time)
- All right. - Meanwhile, Ha Neul said...
he never wants to see Kyung Hoon on variety shows...
- as a rising star entertainer. - Are you two close?
- No. It's not like that. - I've never met him before.
I didn't mean it like that.
When I was in school...
I talked about this with Dong Ha before.
Was Kyung Hoon very popular?
Everyone liked Buzz.
It wasn't just my class. The whole school was...
a huge fan of Buzz.
The whole school was a huge fan?
- Yes. - It's true.
- Every man in Korea liked him. - He was every man's idol.
- I know, but... - It was different then.
Gu Ra must be unhappy about it.
It's different from the time when we were in school.
If the whole school was a huge fan...
Buzz was so popular among the students...
that we listen to their songs through the broadcast at lunch.
When his song started, we stopped eating,
and sang along together. That's how popular Buzz was.
Dong Ha, was your school the same?
Not just my school, the whole area was his fan.
- The whole area. - The whole city...
Please stop it.
He was so popular.
He wasn't that popular.
- It's true. - He's a hero for their generation.
- It wasn't so long ago. - That's right.
Whenever I went to a karaoke with my friends,
- my male friends sang his song. - Kyung Hoon's song?
- So did we. - I had to cancel his songs.
You cancelled my songs?
- Why? - It's not that I hated his songs.
- Boys sang his songs too often. - Right.
- They sang all of his songs. - They all sang his songs.
- I went to his concert with girls. - He was the best.
My seat was on the third floor.
I looked down on the stage.
- You came to my concert? - Yes, I did.
Is it strange to see him on variety shows?
It's just that it's new to me.
I never said I hated to see him like that.
I never said that. Believe me.
- All right. - He'll have a chance to prove it.
(Jong Shin makes a joke.)
What was your favorite song?
I like so many of his songs...
including "Maybe", "Thorn", "Monologue",
- "Lie", and "Diary". - He knows songs that aren't famous.
- Really? - Yes.
I don't remember which music video it was.
There's a necklace with a bullet inside of it.
I didn't know you tried to look cool back then.
- I did what I was told to do. - I bet Ha Neul isn't his fan.
- I wanted to get the same necklace. - He says he liked the necklace.
- It was so cool. - He idolized Kyung Hoon.
At the end of the music video,
he takes out the bullet out of the necklace,
- and loaded it in his gun. - That's nonsense.
- It's a total nonsense. - It's a music video.
(In the music video of "Coward", the lead actress is kidnapped.)
(Kyung Hoon gets himself immersed in emotion.)
(This is the necklace with a bullet in it.)
(His right hand is shaking.)
- It's embarrassing to tell somehow. - Do you shoot someone?
- Yes, I do. - Who?
- The bad guy. - Who is the bad guy?
Everyone in the music video was a bad guy except for me.
You never miss anyone, right?
Of course, they all die.
(Take this.)
As you're a big fan of his,
can you sing one of his songs...
- such as "Thorn" just a little bit? - Oh, my.
- Just a little bit. - Okay.
(Maybe this will be the last time)
(He sings "Maybe" with a beautiful voice.)
- It goes like this. - Can you sing the high note part?
(He lifts up his head and looks up as he starts singing high notes.)
(He sings high notes easily.)
- Was that right? - Yes.
- He sings so well. - You played Yoon Hyung Joo, right?
- Yes, I did. - I enjoyed "C'est Si Bon".
- Thank you. - They're exchanging compliments.
Now that Ha Neul has sung...
- What about you, Dong Ha? - You should sing too, Dong Ha.
I'm under a lot of pressure now.
(He's worried.)
- What should I sing? - Sing just a little bit.
(Unlike his charismatic face, his voice is very tender.)
(Ha Neul feels the rhythm along with him.)
(He's immersed in the song.)
I like your voice.
- Sing the chorus name. - Kyung Hoon, sing with him.
- Put your arm around him. - I really want to hear you sing.
- He used to be your fan. - You're a good entertainer.
- Stand between them. - Like this?
- I feel nervous. - Do you want to join us?
- Join us. - Let's create a beautiful scene.
- Yong Hwa is joining them. - Good.
- Sing something with high notes. - Sing together.
(Kyung Hoon starts singing.)
Please don't make me cry
It looks great.
(They sing "Coward" together making eye contact.)
(A star and his fans)
(It looks like a summer camp with a celebrity.)
(The star Kyung Hoon is happy.)
(The summer camp with a star)
(They sing in harmony. They're in their own world.)
- That was good. - Thank you.
- It must remind people of memories. - It was an honor to me.
- Thank you. - That was amazing.
I didn't know you'd sing together with arms around each other.
- He asked me to do that. - I told you it would be great.
I didn't know that because I'm older than Kyung Hoon.
I just realized how popular he was to this generation.
- I didn't know he was so popular. - When I was little,
I used to sing Jong Shin's songs...
such as "Annie".
- Jong Shin was popular back then. - Come. I'll put my arm around you.
(Let's sing my song together.)
Yong Hwa said...
that he wants to know Kyung Hoon's secret to...
- having a lot of male fans. - It's not very common.
Buzz has many male fans...
- as well as female fans. - They're popular.
I was a fan of his, and sang his songs a lot.
I was curious about his secret.
I think I can explain that.
For a person's name to have a bigger meaning,
he needs time to be on everyone's lips.
Because we disbanded once,
we had a break of eight years.
It allowed us to be remembered with fondness.
I suggest disbandment.
(I suggest disbandment.)
(The shocking suggestion sends everyone into a frenzy.)
I suggest disbandment.
(He is happy after making a shocking comment.)
Your upcoming enlistment...
is the hotter issue than your upcoming movie.
Are you going to the army?
- Yes, I am. - People talk about the enlistment.
This will be your last talk show before you join the military.
Yes, I think it will be my last one.
Has it been decided where you will go?
- Yes. - Where will you go?
I applied to join military police.
- You applied. - Yes. I passed.
- It suits you. - Ha Neul,
your jawline suits military police.
Really?
- When you wear a helmet... - What do you mean by that?
He has a strong jawline.
- He will look good in a helmet. - I see.
His eyes will be barely visible.
- Thank you. - That's right.
Are you excited before joining the military?
To be honest, I am.
This is another good story. He is excited.
He is so happy that he is excited.
It's not easy to be excited about joining the military.
He might cry when he eats his first meal.
"This is the taste."
- "Radish tastes amazing." - It's not like that.
- Why are you excited? - It's not easy to be excited...
- about joining the military. - Let me explain.
I have always admired military police.
When I was little, I watched "Joint Security Area".
I asked my father,
"Why are those soldiers wearing sunglasses?"
He told me that they are military police...
who guards the country at the front line.
- They could be at the back too. - You are right. Back then...
They are all over the country.
Back then, "Joint Security Area" formed my impression on them.
Within military police, you can apply... What is it called?
- A position? - A position.
I applied to join...
the military police squad on motorcycles.
Have you always ridden a motorcycle?
Yes, I have.
I see.
What does military police do...
- on motorcycles? - All right. So he passed.
You are close to men who ride motorcycles.
Yes, I was close to them in the past.
Have you ridden on the back of a motorcycle?
When Solbi came out of the school gate,
- men on motorcycles were waiting. - They were waiting for me.
- They were waiting for you. - Yes.
Did you get to pick which motorcycle to ride?
- No, I had a boyfriend among them. - Of course, she had one.
- The back seat was raised, right? - Yes.
It was almost as high as the bus.
(She is the queen of exaggerating.)
The back seat was raised.
She was the pinup girl among motorcycles gangs.
(It's all in the past.)
You wanted to join the military when everyone said,
"Why would you join now?"
I thought it would be nice to join when I become greedy.
- You didn't want to be greedy. - No.
- Now is the right time. - He is wise.
He went beyond giving us admirable stories...
and reached the state of nirvana.
Many celebrities go when they can no longer avoid it.
I understand that...
duties drive them to make that decision.
It's not easy to step down from the top.
It's how I live.
No celebrities in Korea have done that.
Seriously.
- Please be quiet. - Please.
He is telling admirable stories. Please be quiet.
It's not easy to step down from the top.
- My left ear is about to go deaf. - It's not easy to step down...
- from the top. - Solbi, take antibiotics later.
(She is about to get an ear infection.)
I am excited for his endeavors after his military service.
- Thank you. - I bet he will become cooler.
Your career and admirable stories are at their height.
For your fans, you worked barefoot at a kalguksu restaurant.
- How did it happen? - My goodness.
- How did it happen? - I mean...
- It's a part of his daily life. - It's not like that.
My father opened...
- a kalguksu restaurant. - He opened a restaurant.
He has liked kalguksu ever since he was little.
That's why he opened a kalguksu restaurant in Gimpo.
I live in Gimpo.
Gu Ra saw an opportunity to butt in again.
Don't talk about Gimpo or Incheon.
I love kalguksu.
Guests on Radio Start shouldn't talk about Incheon or Gimpo.
- I am sorry. - He butts in every time.
Where in Gimpo is it?
- For goodness' sake. - It's in Janggi-dong.
- Janggi-dong. - That's right.
Are the noodles handmade?
Yes, the noodles are handmade.
- What goes in the soup? Seafood? - He serves chicken kalguksu.
- Chicken kalguksu. - Yes.
- I should visit the restaurant. - Thank you.
Anyway...
Does he get dumplings from the factory?
- Stop it. - I am not sure about that.
- They shouldn't be. - I am not sure about that.
I began working part-time as a server.
Many fans visited and I said hello to them.
I was very busy serving the dishes.
I was wearing slippers,
but they continued to come off.
I served barefoot for a second...
- and the story became exaggerated. - People took a picture.
I will visit the restaurant soon.
(He acts like he is a close friend.)
(You are welcome any time.)
Dong Ha, in "Suspicious Partner",
you played a handsome killer.
I am not sure if I am handsome.
Your are handsome.
In the preliminary interview,
the staff felt a chill down their spines...
because you channeled a killer.
I play a serial killer...
who lacks emotions...
and is driven the desire for a revenge against a woman.
He is a sociopath.
When I walk around or eat at a restaurant,
I get very annoyed when people stare at me...
in a strange way.
I wasn't like this before.
Living as a serial killer for three months due to a drama...
made me irritable.
That's why I avoid people these days.
You aren't like that at heart.
Not at all.
I heard that you complete your act as a serial killer...
with your eyes.
I didn't intend to do that,
but my slanted eyes have some effect.
My family has made a few comments.
When I am about to leave for a shoot,
my mom goes, "What is wrong with your eye balls?"
Eye balls?
"Don't open your eyes that way."
I read a lot of comments.
People said that I am good at acting like I need magnesium.
- That's right. Your eyes twitch. - Many people said that.
Your eyes twitch.
In the drama, I have a memory loss because of a car accident.
Before I wake up,
I twitch my eyes.
That's what drove people to make comments about magnesium.
The lack of magnesium makes your eyes twitch.
That's right. If people in their 40s or 50s...
feel a twitch in their facial muscles,
it means they will have a facial paralysis.
(He made a sudden jump from the topic of magnesium.)
It's common knowledge on health.
You talk about everything else as well.
You get that when you have poor circulation.
Gook Jin, you should know that.
Bananas are good when your eyes twitch.
(It's the knowledge of a middle-aged man.)
Doesn't Dong Ha remind you...
of Park Hyo Shin?
- Yes, he does. - I think...
- he looks like Jay Park. - That's so sudden.
- I see Park Hyo Shin in him. - That's right.
- His side profile is similar. - Jay Park.
- Jay Park. - Park Hyo Shin.
His side profile is similar.
He looks a bit like Um Ki Joon.
Um Ki Joon.
- I have never heard that before. - Really?
I have never said it before either.
Your eyes make you the perfect villain.
He has never heard it before because I have never said it before.
Seriously.
We don't think he looks like Um Ki Joon.
It's nothing important.
(Let's move on.)
There are celebrities he resembles.
Dong Ha, you played Park Young Kyu's immature son in "Chief Kim".
I heard that you can imitate Park Young Kyu perfectly.
- I... - Yong Ha is good at that too.
He is the original.
- That's right. - He is the original.
- He is the original. - He can do a voice impression.
- "My stomach hurts." - "My stomach hurts."
- "My stomach hurts." - He is the best.
Please show us the original voice impression.
- Please show us. - "My stomach hurts."
Programs like "Infinite Challenge"...
use the line as an onscreen subtitle.
I like to think that I made the line popular.
- "My stomach hurts." - "My stomach hurts."
"For goodness' sake. My stomach hurts."
(He channels Park Young Kyu.)
- "My stomach hurts." - He is the best.
His gauge is going up.
He is the best.
It's a line from "Soonpoong Clinic".
- That's right. - I haven't watched the drama.
- I only saw a serious side of him. - Please show us.
I forgot everything.
- It's in the script. - That's right.
You are making me look bad.
Only I did the voice impression.
I was going to do it,
- but he did an amazing job. - Don't be discouraged.
Your voice impression will be different.
Show us what Park Young Kyu is like in a drama.
He has a low voice.
He does this with a low voice.
(Groaning)
He does this.
(His voice imitation is lacking.)
What was that?
- I will practice harder. I'm sorry. - What was that?
It says on the script, "Jong Shin, Gu Ra voice impression."
- What is that? - Not many people imitate me.
- It's a first. - What?
I can't do a voice impression.
I think we understood it wrong.
Perhaps it means the two of you should do a voice impression.
No, it doesn't.
Can you do a voice impression of Jong Shin and Gu Ra?
Look.
It says on the script, "Jong Shin, Gu Ra voice impression."
That doesn't mean we should do a voice impression.
- Who should I imitate? - We can't do that.
Should I sing?
- The passing time - We can't do that.
Why don't you do it?
- Why don't you do it? - "If I was like that..."
- ShouId I do that? - Should I sing?
- That's ridiculous. - That's a good voice impression.
(Who is he imitating?)
It's a vocalist.
- I can't believe... - The passing time
Gook Jin completely misunderstood the script.
"After Park Young Kyu voice impression,"
"induce Jong Shin, Gu Ra voice impression."
Why would we do a voice impression?
The instruction is written in a confusing way.
I got it. You and I should do a voice impression...
and show a shoulder throw.
"Judo" and "Induce" have the same spelling.
(This is hilarious.)
(Dong Ha's specialty is forgotten.)
- For goodness' sake. - Judo.
- You made it funny. - I am sorry.
Only Yong Hwa did a voice impression.
- We did it, too. - I didn't mean to do that.
We did it too.
I did a voice impression.
To be honest, it's not like...
I want to say, "My stomach hurts."
However, to have the normal amount of screen time,
I have to do it.
(Did I do okay?)
From the president of karaokes,
he became the president of variety shows.
That's an exaggeration.
Anyway, Kyung Hoon is enjoying his second heyday.
(He finds something.)
I found something interesting.
What is it?
We have pictures of him...
- before and after variety shows. - Come on.
- He changed a lot. - What is this?
- Is that Kyung Hoon? - That's him in his Buzz days.
My goodness.
- Back then, - His looks turned ordinary.
- I was a vocalist in a band. - You were in a visual rock group.
I couldn't talk a lot. I was consumed by the desire...
to look cool.
You looked like a musical actor.
After my appearances on "Men on a Mission" and this show,
people will laugh if I go back to those looks.
That's right. These looks will make people laugh.
One of the members married Choi Jin Yi.
Yes, all other members got married. One member married...
- Choi Jin Yi of Rumble Fish. - Really?
Are you the only one who is single?
- Yes, I am. - Really?
(He has nothing more to say.)
I only asked to know how the others are doing.
- It's what people do. - He will be happy to be brought up.
It's what people do.
But don't you monitor yourself on TV...
as the hottest guy of variety shows?
It's not confidence, but embarrassment.
- It makes me cringe. - It makes you cringe.
I live with my parents.
My parents watches the shows I am in when they air.
Otherwise, they watch the shows on replay.
- Watching the shows with them... - It's embarrassing.
Yes, it makes me a bit embarrassed.
- You watch it alone, right? - I don't watch it alone either.
One time,
I made an appearance on "Hidden Singer".
I cried a bit on the show...
- because the past struggles. - It's understandable.
I was so embarrassed.
- You were embarrassed you cried. - Yes.
I couldn't go home when my parents were watching the show.
I waited in the parking lot until the show ended.
When I went home, my parents' eyes were red.
Do you monitor all of your shows?
I only monitor the major ones.
- I sort through them. - Is this a major one?
I watch Radio Star because I find myself funny.
(Annoyed)
I am funny in this show.
I go, "Was I that funny?"
(He is hilarious.)
- Do you watch "Ssulzun"? - Yes, I do.
- I only watch a few shows. - Which one don't you watch?
Do you watch "Men in Black Box"?
No, I don't.
You don't watch it.
- No, I don't. - The black box leads the show.
I don't watch "Men In Black Box".
- It's pointless to watch it. - That's right.
- I wanted to ask. - Black boxes get 22 minutes.
(Gu Ra gets 1 minute.)
Kyung Hoon, you are like Yu Jae Seok within your agency.
Who are in your agency?
The one you would know is Brown Eyed Soul.
Then there are indie bands.
The agency is sound...
and quiet.
I am the wittiest member.
You are witty and funny.
Kyung Hoon is the funny one.
He is the only one who makes people laugh.
Do you make people roll on the floor laughing?
Do you imitate comedians?
When we go on a retreat,
we have Treasure Hunt...
and play True or False Quiz.
- That's what we do. - You play Drop the Handkerchief.
We might be able to play it in the future.
I am on the wittier side.
You used to avoid variety shows.
I heard the agency celebrated it...
when you decided to appear on variety shows.
That's right. Everything started...
with "Hidden Singer".
I didn't want to be on "Hidden Singer"...
and fought against the agency for over two years.
The agency wanted me to make a comeback through the show.
Because I refused to be on it,
we fought for over a year.
One day, we had a gathering after the concert.
The staff members...
were down.
The food at the gathering was getting worse.
You get annoyed by the small things.
That's why I told them that I will go on...
"Hidden Singer".
They gave me a round of applause. My manager cried...
- because he was so happy. - He was moved.
He cried and said,
"You need to do a good job."
He cried.
Kyung Hoon doesn't go to the gatherings for programs.
- It was unexpected. - Sang Min doesn't go either.
"Men on a Mission" doesn't have gatherings.
Ho Dong and the others have a gathering every single day.
- Really? - You didn't know.
I guess you didn't know.
If Ho Dong goes, Su Geun goes...
no matter how sick he is or how bad the weather is.
He is like a subordinate.
Young Chul doesn't go to those either.
I heard that this program doesn't have gatherings.
Gook Jin doesn't drink.
Doesn't the lack of gatherings...
- bring everyone closer? - We aren't close.
- You aren't close. - The relationship is dry.
- The relationship is dry. - It's dry.
- It's dry. - A gathering...
- won't bring us closer. - The MCs are so different.
I want to be close to Gook Jin, but he doesn't want that.
- It can't be helped. - That's ridiculous.
- I like him so much... - I don't want us to be friends.
that I almost moved in to the house next to his.
(I will always wait for you.)
His song was top one on Gaon Music Chart for 68 weeks.
Yong Hwa is the prince of Korean Wave.
You even filmed a movie with Nicholas Tse,
- the top star of Hong Kong. - Nicholas Tse.
His name is Nicholas Tse.
- He is a famous actor. - His name is Nicholas Tse.
- It's a perfectly fine name. - He is an actor based in Hong Kong.
What kind of a movie was it?
- The title is "Cook Up a Storm". - "Cook Up a Storm".
We filmed it last year. It was released this year.
I probably shouldn't talk about this on TV,
but I heard something from the president of his agency.
"I heard that Yong Hwa is in a film."
"How much does he get?" It was a considerable sum of money.
Why did the president of an agency reveal such information?
Gu Ra is the megaphone among celebrities.
- Why did he reveal information? - He shouldn't tell Gu Ra anything.
- He has market value. - Of course he does.
Of course he does. Yong Hwa, you went to Hawaii...
- for a photo shoot for a magazine. - Yes, I went there recently.
I heard that you fell in love with Hawaii.
No one had their eyes on their cell phones.
- It was like that in Hawaii. - Yes.
In Seoul, my hands are always on my cell phone.
The moment I arrived in Hawaii,
I forgot about my cell phone.
- It made me happy. - That's how great the place is.
Some people go there for a vacation...
and ends up staying.
- That's right. - You would love Brazil.
- I have been there. - Your phone won't have a service.
The network is bad.
- The network is bad. - Your phone won't have a service.
To burn the last years of his 20s,
Yong Hwa will become a dance singer this time.
- I have seen him dance. - I bet you gave it many thoughts.
You want to dance before you enter your 30s.
Is it for a solo album?
- A solo album. - You came to respect idols...
ever since you began to dance.
It's really hard.
When you play an instrument for the first time,
it's hard to sing as you play an instrument.
It's the same with dance. It's hard to dance and sing.
Even after I memorized the dance routine,
singing and dancing at the same time led to mistakes.
I also can't dance if I don't see myself in the mirror.
- I can't dance without a mirror. - My goodness.
We must see him dance.
- That's right. - We must see it.
You need to do it to get enough screen time.
The gauge went down a lot.
Do you have backup dancers?
- No, I don't. - You should have brought them.
(Yong Hwa will dance to "That Girl".)
This is a bit...
I am sorry.
I am not excited yet. Please raise the volume.
I need to be excited.
This is a trendy song.
(It looks like a talent show.)
(Cute)
("I Like It Dance" appears.)
Okay.
The dance isn't so complex that it requires a mirror.
It was a mild dance.
- The dancers will make it powerful. - It will look cool...
if he dances powerfully.
The talented ones don't dance powerfully.
- The talented ones can do that. - You need to dance powerfully.
Ha Neul, you prepared yoga as your specialty.
- Really? - Let's see yoga.
I didn't. It's a lie.
He will show us Yoo Ji Tae's move.
- No. - We prepared a yoga mat.
- That not true. - He is better than Lee Hyo Ri.
- That's not true. - That's incredible.
It's not incredible.
I have practiced meditation for a long time.
Then I wanted to exercise.
- A month? I see. - I started a month ago.
- There is nothing I can do. - Show us what you know.
- Show us what you know. - Put your leg...
over your head.
Dear yoga instructor, I am sorry.
It's moving...
that he thinks about his yoga instructor.
I won't do a headstand.
- Show us what you recently learned. - It has been a month.
- It has been a month. - This is what I learned.
From here...
(He lifted his legs.)
- He is good. - He is good.
- It's not easy. - Can you raise your legs?
- No, I can't. - He can't do that.
- I learned it in a month. - That's quite a feat.
- I learned it in a month. - Kyung Hoon, can you do it?
I think I can do it.
- Give it a try. - I think I can do it.
Kyung Hoon became good at this after "Men on a Mission".
- He never did this before. - No, he didn't.
- Let's take a look. - You start from here.
You haven't tried yoga.
How did you do it?
- This is how you did it. - Kyung Hoon.
- It worked. - Can you lift your body more?
Kyung Hoon can do it.
- Kyung Hoon can do it. - Kyung Hoon can do it.
- Kyung Hoon can do it. - He hasnt' tried yoga before.
- My goodness. - You learned yoga.
Yong Hwa, give it a try.
- What else can you show us? - There isn't anything else.
Yong Hwa.
Even a man in his mid 30s did it.
- Yong Hwa. - "My stomach hurts."
(Groaning)
He is good.
- In 1, 2, 3. - "My stomach hurts."
- Yong Hwa can do it. - Lift them higher.
- No, he can't do it. - Yes, he can.
He's about to fall on his face.
Yong Hwa can do it. He can do it.
(Plopping down)
- It's not that easy. - It's not easy at all.
- Gu Ra, try it. - People like us can't.
- Try it once. - I think Jong Shin can do it.
- He can't do it. - I agree. I can't do it.
- I'm just bad at this. - He can't do this.
- I think he can. - Did you come here for fun?
What are these? What's up with your sandals?
Are you a peddler?
(He falls and rolls over.)
- What are these? - I think I'm falling.
What's wrong with your shoes?
- Don't you think they're too much? - They are designer shoes!
But still!
- Well... Hold on. - You're here to work.
It's fine as long as his shirt looks cool.
Kyung Hoon asked if they were really designer shoes.
(He keeps trying.)
- Wait. - This is really...
I can't because of my arms.
We don't have enough muscles, so we can't.
You look like a watermelon peddler.
(He looks like a watermelon peddler.)
I mean it. Doesn't he?
- Hey. - I bet he sells watermelons.
By the way, these shoes really don't suit you.
Jong Shin, do you only care about the upper part? Don't you?
How can you wear such shoes to work?
They are designer shoes!
(These are my precious sandals.)
You are now watching a high-end music program, Radio Star...
with four hot male celebrities like Korean national treasures.
Shall we start today's special, Suspicious Hot Celebrities?
Before entering military service, Kang Ha Neul filmed a movie...
with Park Seo Jun who is the king of the romantic comedies.
You said that even...
in real life, Seo Jun is quite romantic.
(She has difficulties in reading.)
Hey, just stop it if you don't know how to read.
Why can't you read the script properly?
- Say, "Isn't he?" - When you sound awkward,
make it into a question by saying "Isn't he?"
- Isn't he? - You were given to ask questions.
You said he's romantic in real life too. Didn't you?
(Seo Jun is known to be romantic.)
- Yes. - Great job.
- Please elaborate on the story. - Okay.
After Seo Jun filmed the movie "Midnight Runners", he starred...
in a drama made him become the king of romantic comedies.
- That's "Fight For My Way". - Yes, he ended up starring in it.
I laugh at things so easily.
I like when people smile, so I smile a lot too.
In a nonchalant way, Seo Jun approached...
to the junior members of the crew who said it was cold.
All of a sudden, he took off his jacket, gave it to her, and left.
- Without saying anything? - He said to wear it if it was cold.
Ha Neul, you don't have to do that. Your reputation is already great.
- You have enough good stories. - No.
He probably laughed and said, "That's nothing."
No, I didn't do that.
- No. - I think it is an impressive story.
I actually met him on a program a long time ago.
He was a bit boring.
- Pardon? - No, he's not.
- Seo Jun isn't boring. - That came out of nowhere.
- He's not boring. - That was so sudden.
- He's a funny guy. - I filmed a talk show with him.
- He wasn't funny? - He wasn't.
But it was when his career had just taken off.
It's possible that he might held back.
At that time I felt...
(As a host of the show, he felt...)
- that I didn't want to invite him. - No, he's not boring.
- He's funny on set. - I get it.
He's very humble. What I remember about him is...
that I met him at an airport lounge.
An idol singer saw me, but didn't say hi.
But he came from afar and said hello.
- I thought he was very nice. - It ought to be an admirable story.
- That's true. - We should note how nice he is.
- Ha Neul. He was surprised... - Yes?
when he saw the real side of you hidden behind your reputation.
- What does it mean? - What is it?
- You were hiding your true colors. - In my opinion,
We will reveal your true colors through a phone call with Seo Jun.
- That's right. - Really?
He said that he will put an end to Ha Neul's good reputation.
- I think he said that. - We'll call him.
All right. Seo Jun?
(Are we calling him right away just like that?)
What are you doing? He didn't even call Seo Jun yet.
- I thought the call was made. - What are you doing?
- Why did you call his name? - I thought Seo Jun was a reporter.
I thought this was like a radio show.
- Seo Jun! - What on earth is this?
Does he have to wait for your call?
- Actually, I looked forward to it. - Exactly.
- I thought when he said, "Seo Jun", - It would work right away.
- We could talk to him right away. - All right.
- Reporter Seo Jun, are you there? - He thought we already called him.
You thought he would say, "Yes, hello."
- Hi, I'm Seo Jun. Nice to meet you. - I've been on this show too long.
This is how we made calls for last 10 years.
I'd say suddenly, "Seo Jun?"
Put him on the speakerphone.
- I'll call but he might not answer. - I thought...
I'd say, "Ha Neul, you didn't know we already made the call, did you?"
(He's really making a call to Seo Jun this time.)
Wasn't that funny?
(Call connected to Seo Jun)
- Hello. - Seo Jun?
- Hello? Hello? - Hello?
- Is that you, Ha Neul? - Yes, can you hear me?
- Yes, I can hear you fine. - Seo Jun, I'm at...
This is Radio Star.
(Unexpectedly, he begins an opening segment.)
- Radio Star? - Yes. We're filming Radio Star.
Are you filming?
Seo Jun, this is Jong Shin.
Hello, is that you, Seo Jun?
Hello. Then we can talk later.
No, I called your name about 10 times.
You must talk to us on the phone.
Hello.
It's nice to meet you.
Did you see any side of Ha Neul that would come across as a bad guy?
- He doesn't have any weaknesses? - He's human though.
There are no particular things that I can't understand,
besides drinking iced Americano during winter.
- He's great. - He's that kind?
The worst thing he did was drinking iced Americano during winter.
- Thank you, Seo Jun! - He kept drinking it.
Can you tell us an admirable story...
- about him? - An admirable story?
- Yes. - At this time...
I’ve realized something while working with him.
He memorized all the names of the crew.
Really? How many members were there?
They were about 60 crew members.
- He knew all 60 members? - Well...
Do you memorize their names like you're their homeroom teacher?
He does just like he's checking attendance.
- He knows everyone. - That's amazing.
That's right. He knew everyone's name.
I thought that he was born to have a great reputation.
- It's amazing. - That's what I thought.
- Seo Jun. - Yes?
Today is a special for hottest guys.
- Including Ha Neul... - Sorry?
He didn't understand you. He thought you said crane guys.
- I'm a crane guy! - He said, "hot guys".
- Hot. - He said, "hot".
- Seo Jun? - He heard Gook Jin wrong.
I said, "hot".
We have Yong Hwa, Kyung Hoon, and Dong Ha with us now.
(Among these four guests)
Who do you think is the hottest guy among these?
- Among the three guys? - Yes.
- When I was in high school, - This is actually a hard question,
- Kyung Hoon was the best. - even he hasn't met them.
- Kyung Hoon? - Guys at his age like Kyung Hoon.
Kyung Hoon is the top at his age.
- Am I? - I can't ever forget him.
- He can't ever forget Kyung Hoon. - And...
- Seo Jun. - Yes?
Have you worked with Gu Ra on a talk show few years back?
You starred in "Taxi".
That's right. It was a few years ago.
- Gu Ra said you were so boring, - I don't think even he remembers.
so he doesn't want to invite you again.
Have you become funny?
In that case, I don't want to see him ever again.
(His answer is very witty.)
- He has improved a lot. - He has.
- He wasn't like this back then. - He has improved a lot.
- Wait. - You better not see him again.
- Please star in our show once. - Please do.
I hope that your film will be successful. Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Have a great day!
Thank you, Seo Jun!
That was our call with Seo Jun.
Seriously?
He can be so stubborn sometimes.
(He keeps trying to cover up his mistake.)
(You're so funny.)
Ko Soo Ji has reported an account of seeing Kyung Hoon.
"13 years ago, I saw Kyung Hoon at an amusement park."
"After the performance, he passed in front of me and suddenly..."
"said 'Hi, whose fan are you?'"
"So I answered, 'I'm a fan of Son Sung Hee.'"
"But he wasn't interested in my answer."
"He asked, 'Do you know who I am? You don't like me?'"
"He opened his eyes wide..."
- "and looked like he was curious." - He was so confident at that time.
"When I said, 'Well, I don't...' and slurred the end of my sentence."
"He answered,"
"'I guess you don't like me, but please like me as well. Bye.'"
- "He waved his hand at me." - You don't know if it's true.
"It made think that he was unique and strange."
"It happened over 10 years ago, but I can't forget this account."
- Jong Shin, you read it well... - I did, didn't I?
- just like a good DJ. - I've been a radio DJ since 1991.
You're good at this.
- Do you remember this? - No, I don't.
How can we know that she's telling us the truth?
We should believe that it's true.
- There's no evidence for this. - Well... Kyung Hoon.
Evidence? Then can you prove that it wasn't true?
(Can you prove that your story is true?)
- You have one? Bring me the proof. - Anyway,
- we can't check. - She doesn't know me.
Bring me the proof to refute her story.
- What proof? Fine. I'll bring it. - Ha Neul's admirable stories...
- Like what proof? - Does Ha Neul have a proof?
How do we know that he goes around barefoot in the restaurant?
But there's a photo.
(Barefooted Ha Neul)
- But when you look at the words, - That's right.
you'd know it's your words...
- or not by the vocabulary. - But I can't remember it.
Do you tend to talk like this?
- I do say, "hi" and "bye" a lot. - See? That's right.
- There's proof. - I told you.
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star as four...
celebrities who are as precious as national treasures join us.
Dong Ha, you played an immature, rich guy on "Chief Kim".
I guess on the shoot, a lot of actors improvised some lines.
"It was a battlefield with the sound of gunfire for improvisations."
Please elaborate on this statement.
I went to the shoot...
and met Namkoong Min for the first time.
I had to act like a total jerk and be supercilious.
There was a scene I had to kick stuff on set and throw...
stuff at my senior actors like Kim Won Hae,
When I approached them, during the shoot,
I improvised and said that Min resembled the actor, Namkoong Min.
- That wasn't in the script though. - Everyone laughed.
But when Min looked at me,
he gave me a serious look. So I said I was sorry.
- He wanted that edited out. - I apologized.
- He didn't want that to air. - He didn't look happy.
The director came to me after that.
The director told me Min laughed out of the set, but he couldn't air it.
- So it didn't get to air. - That was for the drama.
- It was the best for the drama. - Do you not like him after that?
No, I like him very much.
(Min, I love you.)
There were some scenes that weren't in the script.
Some clips of our drama have over one million views online.
- Which clips are they? - I had no idea.
When I was badmouthing Min, he walked in in one scene.
He told me to get him a charger,
but since I was nervous,
I didn't hear him right in the scene.
He pointed at the charger,
- but I put my finger on his finger. - Like the scene in "E.T."?
They even took a separate shot of our fingers up close.
- That was funny. - Everyone laughed.
I thought I could do that, but out of nowhere,
Min wanted it to be funnier I guess.
He said instead of having our fingertips touched,
we should twist our fingertips.
I thought it wasn't that funny.
- The first one was funnier. - No, that's not funnier.
- Hey, isn't the first one better? - That's not it.
The first one was way better.
- The second one wouldn't be funny. - That's right.
- He kept insisting that we do that. - That's not it.
- That's just wrong. - The expert chose the first one.
Twisting fingers is just a horrible idea based on nothing.
(However, improvisations must go on forever.)
Dong Ha, you said you can speak Swahili.
- You improvised that on the drama. - That...
In one scene, I had to read a letter to people in Tanzania.
The lines were written in English.
I said the lines in English as they were in the script.
But the lines didn't sound natural when I tried.
Since I was talking to people in Tanzania, instead of English,
I should speak in Swahili.
I returned to the waiting room and...
- practiced Swahili for 30 minutes. - Really?
- It was real Swahili? - Yes.
I saw documentaries of the world.
I saw people making trades.
Your lines in Swahili didn't reflect the contents in the script?
- No, they weren't related at all. - It was in Swahili.
- I'm so curious. - I wasn't trying to be funny.
I wanted to do it well and make this into a great scene.
I did it because I thought if I sound unnatural, it'd be weird.
- The clip earned the highest views. - Really?
- How did you act the scene? - Show us.
Do you remember the lines?
(Speaking Swahili)
(He's fluent.)
It was something like this.
(It's funny!)
He's funny.
(He started to get a hang of it after half a day.)
By the way, we can call him Young Lim Hyeon Sik.
(He has a bright future.)
With this act?
- He's the king of improvisations. - That's right.
(I found my successor!)
I heard you managed to stop an accident with your improvisation.
I was acting in a play in a small theater.
There was a scene I had to look for something.
All of a sudden, one of the lights fell from the ceiling.
- I remember saying I found it. - You said you found the light.
I did it instinctively.
Goodness, that sounds like it was quite dangerous.
- I almost got hit by it. - That's right.
- It could've been a big accident. - It was dangerous.
Just now,
Solbi tried to help because she thought it wasn't as funny.
You're so nice.
- Right now... - "It was quite dangerous."
- She asked the questions. - "It was quite dangerous."
When she thought Dong Ha's story didn't go so well, she said,
- "It was quite dangerous." - "It was quite dangerous."
I'm thankful that you didn't die from and are still alive and well.
- Thank you for your sincerity. - All right.
You played a killer, and your acting improved because of Ji Chang Wook?
There were some action scenes although it was a romantic comedy.
My role was important and it made the drama into a thriller at times.
When we film action scenes, we have to plan our moves.
During the rehearsal, Chang Wook hit me really hard.
I even told him that he hit me so hard, and it was just a rehearsal.
He told me to hit me just as hard.
That's how he's going to get into the role.
So after that, we had fun practicing those moves.
- I see. That's what happened. - It was...
- I see. - I bet it was fun.
Solbi, please try to help him.
Tell him what you thought.
I didn't know that happened.
I see.
Both of you were very professional.
- Okay. - I agree.
(Thank you, Solbi.)
Kyung Hoon, you said you will only star on "Men on a Mission"...
until you want although the program put you on the map again.
- I did at first. - That's quite a condition.
In the beginning,
- I turned down the offer. - Really?
Whenever I got offers, I just turned them down.
The crew wanted to have a meeting with me, so I went.
I asked them why out of all the other celebrities, they chose me.
They said that they liked me for who I was...
- and that I spoke my mind. - You were unique too.
- You don't fake stuff. - That's why they liked me.
I told them that I'd join their program,
but if the show gets hard,
I'd drop out of the show in the middle.
And I told them that they can't bully me...
when I do drop out.
(He's so honest.)
- They said yes, and I joined. - I see.
You wanted to quit when you wanted to.
- The program had a rough start. - That's true.
It was going to get cancelled.
The news spread throughout the TV stations.
- Didn't Kim Se Hwang star on it? - He did.
Can you explain us how Se Hwang ended up dropping out of the show?
- If you can. - I should explain it?
I contact him when it's national holidays.
- He was on the show too. - I know that too.
Did he want to quit? Or did he get fired?
I thought the show was funny then.
I think he really wanted to star on the show.
- Then he got fired. - Wait, no.
I don't know the reason behind his dropout though.
You should call him.
I've never met him even once.
(I've never met him even once.)
It says Kyung Hoon...
gets along very well with members of "Men on a Mission".
He got along well especially with Se Hwang who's not on the show.
- You saw that? - Yes.
I heard even though you have great teamwork,
it's only for the show...
and that you guys don't hang out outside of work.
- It's all for the show. - Just now,
you don't hang out much with Kang Ho Dong especially.
I know everyone's phone numbers,
except Ho Dong's.
- You don't? - No.
- Did you ask him for it? - No.
I didn't talk about that.
- I didn't ask him either. - You didn't want to know.
In the beginning,
since he's a famous host,
he would have a lot of people around him.
I thought I didn't have to be one of them.
He has his entourage.
Lee Soo Geun and Kim Jong Min are part of his entourage.
He has a curtain of his people surrounding him.
(There isn't a single gap.)
I couldn't approach him first.
On the national holidays,
I wished everyone, but Ho Dong, happy holidays.
(He's shocked.)
He's bold.
- You could ask Su Geun and do it. - I agree.
- You are shy. - Right.
- You thought he'd let you know. - During the dinner after work,
when everyone gathered,
Ho Dong said, "I like everyone,"
"but I feel most uncomfortable with you."
If Ho Dong said that, he wanted to be close to you.
- He wanted to be close to you. - It didn't mean he didn't like me?
- That's his way of saying it. - Really?
I sat next to him on that day.
- I thought he must feel uneasy. - That's not it.
In our world, it means we want to be friends with you.
- That's what he meant. - Usually...
But when he said that, you said, "Okay".
I thought he meant it...
because it was our first time meeting outside of work.
I just thought that when he sees someone he is not close...
with privately, he feels uncomfortable.
But...
Yong Hwa knows more about Ho Dong than Kyung Hoon.
You used to work with him on a show called "Three Musketeers".
- I used to work with him. - Right now,
he's Ho Dong's right-hand man.
- I think he'd do well. - He's the new right-hand man.
When I first debuted, I was scared of him.
He was really scary.
When I filmed the show with him...
- Did you get comfortable with him? - Yes, I did.
I got so comfortable with him.
He told me to watch out for my health and stay healthy.
He told me these things out of his heart, not for the show.
I could feel his sincerity.
I'm sure Kim Hee Seon was there.
(He ruins the mood.)
That's possible.
He could've said it when she wasn't there.
- She wasn't there. - You're close with him, aren't you?
How is Ho Dong from your point of view?
I think I'm in the same shoes with Kyung Hoon.
(She's not that close to him.)
(I was counting on you, Solbi.)
Yong Hwa,
you think he is the best and respects him,
but why do you get the flu and sick after your shoot?
I am always more confident in reacting to what's going on...
than making people laugh.
I would react for about eight hours.
- You are busy responding. - I keep laughing.
I had to prepare for my comeback, but I lost my voice.
- That's hard work. - When I got home, I felt empty.
- Just like the flu, - I get it.
- Ho Dong took all my energy. - You know that...
even the monkeys in the zoo rest, don't you?
They don't constantly act for the visitors.
They take a rest.
- They do. - How do you know that?
I know when I look at them.
No, we don't. It's a story among the monkeys.
Do I have to know the story among the monkeys?
- You are telling me that story. - What are you talking about?
- How do you know they rest? - Goodness.
You can see them resting!
How do you know how the monkeys feel?
How do you know the lives of the monkeys?
Okay, fine.
(Solbi is a sniper who can take shots at Gu Ra.)
From the outside, you look like an upstanding guy.
- Yong Hwa, you do look like one. - He is a decent guy.
But I guess you did something you don't usually do two years ago?
And I heard you regretted right away.
One of my fantasies is...
having full-sleeve tattoos.
Men have that fantasy.
- Tattoos cover the body tightly. - That's right.
They are visible too.
One time,
I couldn't get a real tattoo at first.
For my album, the tattoo artist...
- You got henna tattoos? - gave me henna tattoos instead.
- At that time, - You should've done it.
I thought that...
the tattoos looked terrible on me.
- When you looked in the mirror? - I see.
One of my member's wife...
- is a tattooist, so come for one. - Right.
- Should I? - Yes.
- I have to let people know. - It hurts.
- It hurts, right? - On my back,
- You have one? - I have a big mole.
- What? - You sure it's not an age spot?
- The mole is this big. - On your back?
- It's a mole. - Really?
- There's hair on it, right? - Can you show it?
- Show it here? - Just add one more and...
Do you think the viewers would want that?
(Say no to shirtless Kim Gu Ra)
I admire people who have beards.
- Right? - Yes.
I admire the full bears, rather than the small ones,
where you get food on it when you eat.
Prime ministers from Joseon Dynasty had that, right?
- Joseon prime ministers. - You're right.
- Right? - Joseon prime ministers.
(Isn't it...?)
(Solbi was born to do variety shows.)
Ha Neul, you said that your first kiss happened by chance,
because of your rhinitis? What did you mean by that?
Oh, sorry. I laughed out too loud by myself.
- I'm sorry. - No need to apologize.
- You can laugh. - So...
This is...
(He's fidgeting.)
I've never told this story before.
First, I have rhinitis and sinusitis.
So it's a little uncomfortable to breathe with my nose.
We were walking together. And we'd already shared a light kiss.
It was my girlfriend back then.
- I can kind of imagine. - A light kiss.
Gosh, it's so funny that I'm telling this story.
Anyways, we ended up kissing,
but the kiss was lasting longer than usual.
So we were kissing.
But I couldn't breathe with my nose.
- So you had to open your mouth. - So...
- So you made out to live? - I see.
So to be honest,
out lips were touching, but I couldn't breathe.
It'd have been embarrassing for my girlfriend if I just stopped.
So I opened my lips slightly so that she won't notice.
- Right. - Like this.
- While we were kissing. - Yes.
I wanted to open my mouth like this and breathe.
- But then... - She didn't let you breathe.
- Yes, that's what happened. - I see.
- That's what happened. - Yes.
Come to think of it, you don't really breathe when you're kissing.
- People breathe with their nose. - Through the nose.
- People breathe with their nose? - Yes.
Your eyes just turned big.
- No, I just wanted water. - Kyung Yoon suddenly went like,
"Through the nose."
I just wanted some water.
He looks like he can breathe well with his nose.
Anyway,
when everyone else was laughing, this is what I focused on.
Ha Neul is so innocent.
- So... - That's what I felt too.
- He's very innocence. - That's not the case.
That's the point of this story.
- Yes. - It ends at that line.
- He is innocent. - No, no.
- He's innocent. - Ha Neul is very nice.
Then what is bad?
You're nice too.
No, I'm just curious.
- What would be considered bad? - That's just Ha Neul's character.
(I can't breathe!)
Do you have to do that to be bad?
(Do I have to do this to be bad?)
Ha Neul is the walking textbook of moving stories.
- W.T.M.S in short. - W.T.M.S?
- Yes, he is. - No, I'm not.
But Ha Neul also has a past he wants to erase.
When I was 20 years old, I acted in a musical.
It was called "Spring Awakening" and the production was six months long.
Including rehearsals, I spent about a year on that show.
After 150 shows,
I was physically so tired that on back stage, I just laid down.
And on stage, I'd go out like a machine to do my number.
- So... - Yes, that's what happens.
I had a lot of doubt...
on how repetitive it was.
You didn't get into your role, and it became a habit instead.
Yes, it just became a habit.
When I think about it now, I should have had a different approach.
226 shows are only a short part of my life.
- It was very doable. - That's the past you want to erase?
But...
- Really? - It became another moving story.
Was that it?
- Really? - In order for it to not be moving,
That's the past you want to erase?
From the 200th show, he was half-hearted on stage.
- But until 150, he worked hard? - From the 200th show,
- I just wanted to quit. - Was that it?
- I wanted to quit everything. - But you kept doing it.
I did finish the run.
- I see. - So,
from the 200th show, everything was just too hard!
- I wanted to quit everything! - I see.
You should have quit!
(You should have quit.)
- If there more than 200... - Once you pass the 200th show,
you end up doing it mechanically.
- Once you pass the 100 mark... - You're right.
- But that's the case for everyone. - Of course.
We're all TV show machines here.
- Everyone's like that. - We're machines.
If you press a button, a joke comes out.
It's the same for everyone.
Once we finish about 80 percent of the shoot he goes like,
"Yes, yes, that's amazing."
- He's like a machine with it. - Oh, really?
(Reaction robot)
Like that.
Oh really?
Dong Ha also has a solid ground...
in musicals. It's been 10 years?
- Yes. - Really?
He has a very good voice.
What musical were you in when you were 17?
It was a children's musical called "A Little Princess".
It played at the National Theater of Korea.
"A Little Princess"? I see.
You must have had a lot of thoughts on acting.
To you it was, "To die or to act, that is the question"?
- Really? - I acted since I was 12.
- Really? - Yes.
- Yes. - Where?
On TV?
(He's laughing.)
- No, no. - You started early.
Gu Ra said, "Really?"
He was being a robot but Dong Ha was surprised.
No, I was curious.
- I was really curious. - He was feigning.
I wanted to go to an arts high school.
I had something I wanted to do for the first time in my life.
So I went to an acting academy and studied it for three years.
Two weeks before the audition, I was standing in front of a crosswalk.
And someone randomly beat me up.
- Really? - Yes, a man just came up,
and hit me with a weapon and his fists.
- Yes. - Things like that really do happen.
Yes. It happened to me, and my kidney was torn.
- Really? - At first,
I just had a stomachache.
I thought it'd get better, but it kept hurting.
I told my parents that my stomach hurt.
And we hurried to the hospital.
And the hospital said that if I came in any later, I could have died.
The school admissions audition was in two weeks.
The doctor said I could die if I go for that audition.
I told my parents...
that I really had to do the audition.
Rather than regretting it until the day I die,
I would rather die on my way there.
So what happened? Did you get in?
No, of course I was rejected.
I could barely move.
But even after getting rejected,
I didn't give up on acting and continued since I liked it.
Did you catch the man who beat you?
No, I didn't.
Were your kidneys recovered after that?
I have to ask questions like this. The public wants to know.
- He hurt his kidney? - What happens if you tear a kidney?
Gu Ra, please ask him what happened!
- Oh, people would? - Yes.
I have to ask.
If I don't people will go like, "Gu Ra, please ask him!"
You're the only one who can! That's why I'm asking.
They already guessed that you didn't get into the school.
They're more curious about whether you're okay now.
Well, since we have two kidneys,
I'm okay now. It healed.
The punishment has to bececome more severe...
for random beatings like that.
- That's a good comment. - Yes.
(Solbi's good.)
Acting must be just as important as your life to you now.
But you also had an unexpected past?
Were you training at JYP to be the next 2PM?
Yes, it was 10 years ago. That's why I'm acquainted with...
- Jun Ho. - You do?
- At the time? - Yes, 10 years ago.
So after you didn't get into the art school?
Yes, I auditioned after the school rejected me and I got in.
At the time, 2PM was about to make their debut.
The project was starting, and Park Jin Young bought me blowfish.
- Blowfish? - And right now...
Yes, blowfish.
- A restaurant in Chungdam-dong. - It must have been good.
To be honest, doing that for a trainee meant...
that I was going to make my debut.
- It's time to make my debut. - It means he's considering.
- It definitely meant debut. - Or he wanted to eat it himself.
- No, no. - Because he didn't have friends?
- Because he didn't have friends? - Yes.
He might not have had anyone to eat it with.
(Anyone wants blowfish with me?)
He was an incredible figure...
- to the trainees. - He's right.
He said I'd make my debut soon.
So I was like "This is it. I'm finally making my debut."
But it didn't work out. He didn't let me debut.
Wait, why is the story ending so suddenly?
- The ending is... - Solbi, do something with this.
- Revive this story. - No, I mean...
- No, that's not what I meant. - The story's over?
- No, it's because... - That's not the ending.
- That's not the end. - There were a lot of candidates,
and the members suddenly changed.
So what happened after that?
After you had the blowfish...
After the blowfish, I waited for my debut.
And I ended up leaving the company.
- How long were you there? - That's the end.
But all of Dong Ha's stories...
end with no comment.
(Variety shows are hard.)
The JYP signature dance you learned back then...
is still a trauma to you?
To be honest, I'm horrible at dancing.
He saw me and said...
that I shouldn't dance ever again.
So I kept practicing in a corner by myself.
Please show us the dance you practiced so hard.
I practiced one move for six months.
Let's see that one move.
Because there's a signature dance move JYP does.
Let's see that one move.
- But it's really... - Jin Young does have his own move.
When the music comes out...
This song gives me goosebumps.
When the music comes out,
I'd listen to it.
I'd be expressionless.
(He has no expression.)
This is how you'd do it.
- My gosh. - Goodness.
I'd just keep doing this. Just this.
I'd do that and turn around to do the same thing.
- It was just like that. - I see.
This is Jin Young's way of warming up.
- Does everyone do it? - Do all the trainees do it?
- It's just warming up. - Yes, you can't make any face.
Is that how people from JYP say hello?
With a wave, like this.
- Like this. - Oh, it's been a while.
(JYP Entertainment, it's been a while.)
(He's tired.)
So, next...
Now, I've turned into a machine.
It's time.
It's time for us to become machines.
Okay everyone, you are watching a MC robot. Get ready, go!
Yes, I don't have a choice. I'm entering robot mode.
So Dong Ha,
you always video call your mom?
You're that good of a son?
My mom always has to see my face.
She gets worried if she doesn't.
So I think after every scene, I video call her.
- Really? - Yes.
- I video call her. - Are you an only son?
- No, I have an older brother. - Even when you have a brother?
It's because ever since I was little, I got sick and hurt a lot.
I can understand how you mother feels.
But then is your brother kind of a scary figure?
- No, my brother... - Why?
"I can understand how your mother feels"...
is an important comment.
"I can understand how your mother feels."
(He talks fast like a robot.)
Seriously.
- He's a robot. - It's supposed to be touching
I'm half human, half robot right now.
I'm half robot and half machine.
- Please understand. - He's half machine.
- I'm half human, half machine. - I see.
(Robotic hosting is the best!)
- Yes, half machine. - Please understand.
You should be warm to him instead.
- But your mother... - Yes.
- Shouldn't you call her less? - Have more time in between?
- Maybe once a day. - I'd like to,
- but my mom really loves it. - Then you should continue.
Yes and that makes me happy.
You're such a good son.
But your brother was quite scary?
My parents never hit me once.
But my brother hit me a lot while growing up.
- He's quite older than me. - Right.
Your parents could have told him, "Do we have to do it?"
- "You do it instead." - Is his father some sergeant?
- It makes sense. - He ordered a corporal to do it?
Make sure you impress me.
(Kind of like the barracks...?)
Ha Neul, I heard you like to go out in the rain during monsoon season.
(He's laughing.)
I love when it rains.
For drinking?
No, I just like the rain.
I love the rain too.
Being home alone when it rains?
So to me, good weather is when it rains.
- Me too! - Nice!
Me too!
(An unexpected bond)
Dong Ha is watching them like this.
(He smiles shyly.)
I don't like waking up to the sun.
I like waking up in rainy or gloomy weather.
- Yes. - Then you should...
install a steam sauna at your home,
so that it rains.
Yes, okay.
(He doesn't need a sauna.)
I love the rain so much that...
I know just by smell that it's raining.
I love the rain too. So if the weather report says...
it's raining in Gyeongsang Province, I want to go there.
- Really? - Yes.
Where is it raining?
- I love driving when it rains. - I like driving on a rainy road.
You might hydroplane, so you have to be careful.
As the "Men in Black Box" MC...
- rainy roads are dangerous. - It is dangerous.
He ruins all the romance for all the rain lovers here.
I wish he weren't a part of this conversation!
(The Gu Ra sun has risen.)
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
Today, we have four hot stars as our guests.
Songs to heat up Radio Star!
Let's listen to the song Ha Neul has chosen.
(I chose it for you.)
It's Buzz's song.
- This song is every man's goal. - It's "Thorn" right?
Why did you choose "Thorn" by Buzz?
People from Gyeongsang Province all say "thorn" that way.
Gyeongsang Province people always say "Thorn" by Buzz that way.
- I'm from Gyeongsang Province too. - Right.
- Buzz' "Thorn". - When I first sang it,
I sang "become a thorn" this way.
(I sang it that way at first.)
I don't really have another reason.
When I heard Kyung Hoon was going to be here,
I thought it would be nice to sing a song by Buzz.
- You wanted to sing it once? - It's because I really...
I still listen to it. Even to this day, I can sing along to it.
He really likes the group.
Let's listen to it.
Look at him.
Look at his wide smile.
This is such an honor to sing this in front of Kyung Hoon.
This is for you.
Look at him smile.
This is for Kyung Hoon.
(The song is for his childhood idol Buzz.)
(Even when you're not here, the shining sky)
(His voice is sweet.)
(He's surprised at Ha Neul's sweet voice.)
He's good.
(He sang Buzz' song so many times when he was in school.)
(He's into it.)
(So that even time can't take you away)
(His hands are gathered politely.)
(He continues singing.)
(I couldn't send you away)
(People sink into his performance.)
He's really good.
(The memories pierce)
(deep into my heart like thorns)
(I barely feel the pain)
(Memories of you)
He's good!
(The love of the past)
(Dig deep into my heart)
(Like thorns)
(His head voice explodes.)
(He finishes singing still looking polite.)
- That was good! - Bravo!
- You're good! - He's so good.
(Ha Neul is the best!)
That was amazing.
He wasn't in "C'est Si Bon" for no reason.
Ha Neul, you were amazing.
- Ha Neul, you're strong. - Really.
- I was so nervous. - You were so good.
Kyung Hoon, wasn't he good?
He's so charming.
He sings with such charm.
- Even his singing is moving. - No, it's because...
I practiced this song a lot
- as a love song to girls. - For that friend from earlier?
Yes, for the girl I had my first kiss with.
I sang it to her once.
So I practiced it a lot.
Ha Neul's singing...
- makes you want to listen longer. - You're too kind.
- He's very earnest. - No, no.
- Really. - I hope the film does well,
- and military service as well - Thank you.
Solbi, you were our special MC for the day.
- You were amazing. - How do you feel about today?
I feel like I didn't do a good job at taking care of everyone.
I feel bad.
I'll promote everything else where.
You're a little sleepy, aren't you?
A little, since Gu Ra came after me so much.
- I see. - Right.
- It's 1:40am right now. - Thank you so much.
It was good seeing you all, and thank you.
Today, we were with four young guests with so much passion...
and challenging spirit. It was a great time.
Viewers, please show a lot of love...
to these four "Hot Brothers".
Don't make them cry
Yes, we support all of your passions.
We will say good bye here.
- See you next week. - Please.
(See you again next week!)
