- National Competition on Worries! - National Competition on Worries!
Let me introduce today's guests. They're an extraordinary group.
Su Ho and Se Hun of EXO!
They're extraordinary musical actors and a married couple.
- They're a married couple. - Kim So Hyun and Son Jun Ho!
Welcome!
I heard you two used to be roommates,
- That's right. - and Se Hun had a hard time.
- It's harder for the younger one. - Why was it hard for you?
Se Hun was worried back then,
so he thought of coming on to Hello.
Really? How hard was it?
- Se Hun, tell us. What was so hard? - Why are you touching his thigh?
I guess that's one of Se Hun's worries.
Su Ho was my roommate for about five years.
- That's a long time. - We were roommates.
After he ate fruits or other food...
He's touching Su Ho's thigh while talking as well.
That's because they used to share the same room.
They shared the same room for a long time.
- They touch each other's thigh. - Whenever he ate something,
he left the leftover food next to my bed.
- And? - And...
he didn't tidy up the room.
- The younger one always cleans up. - Then, did you clean the room?
I didn't clean our room either.
Why did you worry about it when you didn't clean it either?
- You didn't clean the room either. - You didn't do it either.
- As Su Ho didn't clean our room... - So which one cleaned the room?
- We separated the room. - You separated the room?
- Yes. It caused a serious problem. - Exactly.
They didn't clean their room until it caused a serious problem.
While listening to them, So Hyun and Jun Ho looked so different.
Jun Ho didn't seem interested in their story at all.
Meanwhile, So Hyun was trying not to miss anything.
- Please go ahead. - In fact, Jun Ho performed...
- with many girl group members. - I see.
He didn't know what to do. Just like Dong Yeob,
his ears turned red. I watched him like that,
but today, I'm in his position.
My ears aren't red, right? It'd be odd if they turn red because of EXO.
- Your ears are red now. - Is that right?
- They're red. - In fact, they look quite pretty.
(Even Dong Yeob is fascinated by their beauty.)
As some of you must know,
- So Hyun is older than Jun Ho. - That's right.
Jun Ho was born when So Hyun was in second grade. Is that right?
That's right.
Right. My goodness.
Jun Ho, do you have any worries because she's older than you?
Well, she's... I have no worries. She's a perfect wife.
I think it's great to live with an older woman.
They appeared on "Immortal Songs" many times.
- They must fight sometimes. - That's right.
Even when they had a fight, once they went up on the stage...
(They sing affectionately together.)
After finishing their performance, they started fighting again.
- We fought on our way here as well. - Did you?
She said something ridiculous.
- What did she say? - Why? What did she say?
I said, "So Hyun, I've been thinking." She said, "Yes."
I said, "I think I love you more than you love me."
(I think I love you more than you love me.)
Then, So Hyun said...
(The power of their love can even block Yeong Ja's attack.)
So Hyun said she loves me more.
We had a big fight over which one of us loves the other more.
Since you're here, I should ask you this question.
What worries do you have lately?
First of all, my group,
- EXO... - Su Ho.
(He's still touching Se Hun's leg!)
Stop touching him already.
- Stop touching his leg. - Se Hun must be worried.
- It must be bothering Se Hun. - He keeps touching his leg.
Why don't you come out so we can get higher ratings?
(All right then.)
(You feel more comfortable when you give up.)
What worries me and stresses me out is...
One of the guests on Hello had the same worry.
I can't throw anything away.
- You can't throw anything away. - That's right.
So you put things next to Se Hun's bed.
- I'm not talking about trash. - You keep your items...
I still keep my hoodies that I wore in middle and high school.
- Your clothes. - Do you still have all of them?
Yes. I couldn't throw them away. I kept my college uniform too...
because of the old memories. My clothes are piling up in my closet.
That's what elderly people usually do.
Today, we have three stories as always.
Let's check them out. Show us the keywords please.
(The keywords are revealed.)
- "Hello? No!" - "Sexual Problem".
- Is it "Grade Problem" or "Sexual"? - It's "Sexual Problem".
Since I'm the one who will read this story, it's "Sexual".
(Then, it should be "Sexual".)
This story is about a very serious sexual problem.
The last keyword is "Troublemaker". You'll be surprised by this story.
Try to think in the shoes of this guest,
and think how you would feel.
Hello. I'm a boy in seventh grade. I live in Paju, Gyeonggi Province.
I didn't know anything when I was in elementary school.
A whole new world opened up to me as I started middle school.
However, it's because of my mom.
"Son, it happens in a moment."
"You should always refrain yourself."
- My gosh. His mom said that? - His mom taught him about it?
I'm only a seventh grader now.
My mom knocks on my door and says, "Son, what are you doing?"
"Mom, I'm listening to music."
"I put a lot of tissues in your room."
My gosh.
(Gosh! Did she say that out of the blue?)
"Don't watch too many adult films."
- Did you make that up? - No, I didn't.
- It really is written there. - He didn't.
I don't know why she says things like that.
Do you think it's appropriate to say to a seventh grader?
That's not all.
"Have you ever used a condom?"
- What? - He's only a seventh grader.
"First, blow air into it. Then, it gets bigger."
"Check if there's no hole on it, and if it doesn't break."
"Mom, please stop it! I don't want to hear that!"
My mom's biggest problem is...
"Mom, I'm going to play with my friend in my room."
"What are you two going to do this late? Don't watch adult films."
"Also,"
"don't forget to use a condom."
She gives sexual education even to my friends.
She's getting ahead of herself.
What if my friends get offended and sue my mom for sexual harassment?
That's possible.
- Please help me stop my mom. - My goodness.
Usually, dads give boys sexual education.
- That's right. - That's right.
- He's only a seventh grader. - Exactly.
- My father made a joke about it. - I see.
- When you were a little boy? - When I was in elementary school,
I heard the word "Sexy" for the first time.
I asked him what "Sexy" means.
He got flustered,
and said, "Well, it's similar to taxi."
- I get it. - He was flustered.
- Did your father say that? - Yes.
Did he say that it's similar to taxi?
I learned what that word means in middle school.
I asked him why he said that, and he said,
- "How could I explain that to you?" - He must've been embarrassed.
- Right. - Why did you have to...
ask him that after you learned what that means?
- He already knew what it means. - It's because he's his dad.
In fact, we've talked about it with our son.
He asked us how babies are born.
- We were flustered at first. - What did you tell him?
We told him that a star falls from the sky...
Kids these days learn about it so early. It looks like my son...
- and his friends have concluded. - Do they share information?
But he wanted to confirm that with me, so he asked the question.
So I told him that a star falls from the sky just as they did.
I went on talking nonsense such as love is all that's needed.
My son said, "All right. Fine."
(Fine. Whatever.)
- "Fine. Whatever." - Right.
I wonder why he sent us this story. Let's talk in more detail.
Let's meet our guest. Please come out.
(Whose mom gives her son explicit sexual education?)
- There he comes. - Welcome.
- He's tall. - Indeed.
He's tall for a middle school student.
(Welcome.)
Did you hate your mom's sexual education so much...
- that you sent us your story? - Yes.
I'm only 14 years old,
and I think what she tells me is inappropriate for my age.
What age do you think is appropriate for her sex education?
(What's the level of her sex education?)
- Adults? - Adults.
When she talks about condoms,
she tells me to blow air in it before using it.
She also told me to check if it's sturdy, and said...
- condoms come in different colors. - In different colors?
Dong Yeob is the model for a product.
I can understand your mother a little bit.
South Korea ranks lowest among OECD countries...
- in terms of the condom use rate, - Yes.
- but highest for the abortion rate. - That's right.
Many of Korean people are not open to the condom use.
Your mother often gives you sex education.
What did you hate the most among what she told you?
When she talks about self-gratification...
(That's intense.)
(Patting)
It's okay. Everyone here is an adult.
- Feel free to talk about it. - We were just...
She said it's bad for your health to do that too often,
and I should wash my hands cleanly before doing it.
Why did she say it's bad for your health?
She didn't tell me that.
- Su Ho, what are the harmful effects? - Why do you think it is bad?
It can make your bones worn out.
I was just joking. It was a joke.
That's what elders said in the past.
- Elders said that in the past. - That's so funny.
That was a joke. I was joking.
When you need to concentrate on studying,
it decreases your concentration.
That's right.
It makes no sense that it can make your bones worn out.
Your bones didn't get worn out.
(Embarrassed)
Have you ever been caught doing it...
by your mother?
- She told him such things, so... - There must be a reason.
- That's right. - Right.
I haven't gotten caught.
- Sorry? - I haven't gotten caught.
- I'm so relieved. - You haven't gotten caught.
- That's a relief. - If...
- He would've been embarrassed. - That means...
(So he did watch it. He was very careful.)
He was very careful.
- I'm surprised. - I'm glad you didn't get caught.
- Does your mom... - That's right.
- keep suspecting you? - He must be careful.
She barges into my room and asks,
"Are you watching an adult movie?"
When I locked my door, she unlocked it with chopsticks.
She shouldn't have done that.
- It's worse than letting him be. - That's right.
You shouldn't do that after what you told him.
He's right.
When my friend slept over at my house,
she said we used a lot of tissues.
We only spilled a drink.
- You only wiped the floor. - Yes, but she came into my room,
- I understand. - and said we used a lot of tissues.
She asked me if I stimulated myself.
- In front of your friend? - Yes.
- She's very sensitive about it. - Even to my friend...
She even asked my friend if he watched an adult movie.
So, what did your friend say?
He didn't say anything,
but he looked a bit uncomfortable.
Your friend must have been embarrassed.
Have you ever gotten caught watching an adult movie?
- No, I haven't. - But your mom still suspects you?
Yes, she keeps suspecting me.
(I think it's unfair to me.)
You could've told your mom,
"Mom, please don't say things like this. I'll take care of it."
- That's right. - Have you ever told her that?
Yes, I have. My family and I went to a restaurant for fried chicken.
Suddenly, my mom started talking about condoms.
(She started sex education.)
- So... - In the restaurant?
No, she said it on our way home.
So I said I didn't want to hear it, and ran to my house.
She talked about condoms while running after me.
(She continued while running after him.)
His mom was running and saying, "You must be careful when using it."
(You must be careful!)
"Make sure to blow air in it."
Because she talked about it while running after me,
I said I'd send her story to Hello, and she told me to go ahead.
So I sent her story.
- Is that why you send this story? - Yes.
You said you ate with your family. Your parents were there.
- Who else was there? - My older sister.
- Your sister was there too? - Yes.
Doesn't your dad tell you about it?
- No, he doesn't talk about it. - Does only your mom talk about it?
I asked my dad if it's considered sexual harassment...
if my friends feel upset because my mom talked about sexuality,
and he agreed with me a few times.
- Did he agree with you? - I understand.
He must have found his son adorable when he asked that.
You would prefer to hear that from your dad, right?
I think it'd be better if my dad talks about it.
- I'm embarrassed when she does it. - You must be.
- Since he's in puberty, - Kids are sensitive at his age.
he could be very sensitive about his mother's sex education.
Let's talk with his mother.
- Hello. - Hello.
(Who is so enthusiastic about sex education?)
Your son actually sent your story to us, and you ended up here.
- Yes. - Do you understand him now?
- Not at all. - You don't understand him?
No, I don't. There are sex education classes at school,
but they don't tell students about it in detail.
So I wanted to give him detailed information.
As his mom, I'm worried because it's easy for kids to find things...
- through media. - I understand how you must feel.
I'm sure seventh graders know more than I do.
- I don't think so. - I'm sure of it.
They know more than I do.
But your sex education stresses your son out.
Don't you think what you tell him is too much for him?
I don't think it's too much for him.
I said that there's a condom vending machine in public toilets.
I told him to buy one and try blowing it up.
We thought it's too much because...
people don't usually talk about it...
with their children on their way home after dinner.
You continued while chasing him.
His sister told me that he has a girlfriend.
She said she had seen him walking with her while holding her hand.
His sister told you that.
I asked, "Eun Seong, when you hold her hand,"
"does it make you want to kiss her, and does it get bigger?"
(Does it get bigger too?)
"Didn't your heart pound?"
- That's when he started running. - That's right.
- He started running. - Of course he ran.
He started running, and you chased him.
I asked, "Did your heart pound?"
(That's enough.)
Do you think your mom tells you about it more often...
because you have a girlfriend?
She's not my girlfriend. We're just close friends.
She didn't say such things when I was in elementary school.
Since I started middle school, she's been talking about it a lot.
You said she's a friend, but your sister saw you holding her hand.
- You don't do that with a friend. - Right.
She's not your girlfriend just yet.
(He's unbelievable!)
My goodness.
Didn't you hold her hand because she tripped?
How did you hold her hand? Like this or like this?
(Interlocking fingers)
Gosh.
(She's shocked.)
- They held hands like this. - She is surely your girlfriend.
- You two interlocked your fingers. - Doesn't it mean they're a couple?
- Even we rarely do that. - Exactly.
Did you have a girlfriend in elementary school as well?
- Since I was in 1st grade. - In 1st grade?
- Since you were in first grade? - Yes.
- Until what grade? - Until I was in sixth grade.
Sixth grade?
Did you date the same girl for six years?
Yes.
After that,
you broke up with her, and got a new girlfriend?
- Please continue. - Tell us.
- I'm curious about your love story. - We're all curious.
I'm starting to understand his mom.
We broke up as we started middle school.
(That's sad.)
And then...
(Laughing)
After I entered middle school,
I became close to someone else.
However, the girl I dated before is in the same class now.
My gosh. Who are you, really?
You're in an awkward position.
Did you become more enthusiastic about sex education...
because he has been dating girls...
since he was in first grade?
That's one of the reasons.
When you barge into his room without knocking...
and ask what he's doing,
- do you want to hear his answer? - He was with his friend that day.
When I say that I'm home, he never responds.
It makes me curious about what he's doing.
I say, "I put a lot of tissues here. Where did they all go?"
"Do it moderately. Did you wash your hands before doing it?"
I'm sure that makes him embarrassed.
As every boy goes through that phase, can't you...
I just want him to keep it moderate. That's all I want.
He says he's tired all the time.
(He's tired because he didn't keep it moderate?)
I don't know why he's so tired.
- He can be tired sometimes. - He can be tired.
Kids run around and play at his age.
He never exercises.
Is it all that you think about?
- No, it isn't. - Whatever he does,
does it make you worry about it?
He says he's tired every single day.
Why are you so tired?
It's because I take after-school lessons.
My classes begin at 5pm, and end around 9pm.
- Do you have classes every day? - Yes.
- He must be tired. - Of course he's tired.
He must be tired after classes from 5pm to 9pm.
No children...
have died from studying hard.
- Excuse me. - That has nothing to do with this.
Ma'am, no men have died from self-stimulation either.
He gets tired from studying as he needs to focus.
He says he's tired too often.
You got ahead of yourself too much.
He said before that he only spilled his drink.
- I think he lied. - Why?
- Was there no drink? - Was there no stain?
- That's right. - No stain of a drink.
That's right.
He wiped the floor cleanly, so...
No. We don't have drinks in our house.
Excuse me?
(What a big twist.)
They might've bought drinks.
- What a big twist. - They might've bought drinks.
They have no drink in their house.
Was there no drink at home that day?
- Was there no drink? - We bought a drink for us.
- We bought it. - If you wiped the floor,
where did you put the tissues you used?
- They're still in the box. - The trash bin?
I mean...
- The tissue box? - Yes, I put them in the box.
You should throw them away now.
Ma'am, you must have heard this from him.
Do you still think he's suspicious?
I didn't find it. Recently, I cleaned the house thoroughly.
When I sorted waste for recycling, I didn't see the bottle.
Didn't they eat the bottle as well?
(They didn't eat the bottle, right?)
- Where is the bottle? - Pardon me?
- The bottle of the drink. - Did your friend take it out?
- In fact... - Don't answer it. Don't!
Don't say anything.
The things will go against you.
Why did you give sex education to his friends as well?
Eun Seong grew up with his friends...
since kindergarten, so they're like my own children.
That's why I told them the same thing.
But his friends... They're Eun Seong's friends.
(They're adorable!)
(They give off unusual vibes for 7th graders.)
You guys didn't do anything wrong.
- You didn't do anything wrong. - Please wave!
Who received sex education from Eun Seong's mom?
(Me)
- They're so cute. - That boy looks very strong.
- Didn't they look uncomfortable? - Not at all.
They chatted all night. The next morning, I said,
"Did you guys watch adult movies? Take it easy."
That's all.
She was just trying to be friendly.
They must have been embarrassed.
But maybe it's too much for the kids.
Put yourself in his position.
Imagine my friend's dad giving me sex education.
Wouldn't that be strange?
Especially when your friends are there.
- It'd be so embarrassing. - Eun Seong is her son,
but his friends are not.
- If you put it that way, - You think they know everything,
- it makes sense. - but maybe not everyone does.
They should be ready.
- You're right. - How do you feel now?
I don't really feel anything.
Do you understand the boys might be embarrassed?
- Were you embarrassed? - That's scary.
(Scared)
Don't ask him.
When you received sex education from her, how did you feel?
- I was embarrassed. - What about you?
- It was fun. - What?
- He said it was fun. - Was it funny?
- Yes. - What if...
your mom tries to give you sex education?
- I'd be fine. - You would?
I understand Eun Seong,
but we should learn it now in order to know...
what to do when we grow up.
Please be careful with your hands.
What about you?
What if your mom is like Eun Seong's mom?
I'd run away from home.
(He means it.)
He's so cute. He's funny.
That's hilarious.
- He's so cute. - Why?
- He'd run away from home. - Why would you do that?
- It'd be too uncomfortable. - What?
- It'd be too uncomfortable. - I see.
I wouldn't like it.
How does that make you feel?
He thinks it'd be so uncomfortable that he'd run away from home.
He's not Eun Seong.
He's not your son.
(Stay strong, my friend.)
Can you give the microphone to Eun Seong's sister?
How old are you?
- I'm 15. - You're one year older.
Do you understand Eun Seong?
I do. Some of the things Mom says are too provocative.
It does bother me, but we receive sex education at school too.
We're old enough now. So I understand Mom too.
Does she say those things to you as well?
Not as much. She just says I should be careful with boys.
She says, when a boy says I'm pretty, it's a lie.
(Parents are supposed to be on their children's side.)
(She is too harsh to her children.)
Really?
Isn't that strange?
Isn't that weird?
I have to ask you.
Why would you say that? Your daughter is pretty.
- She is pretty. - Then why did you say that?
Because she shouldn't fall for that?
- Yes. - What else did she say?
She told me not to go anywhere where there are only guys.
- Right. - That makes sense.
- That's reasonable. - She's right.
And?
That I shouldn't trust older boys.
You shouldn't trust older boys?
- You shouldn't trust older boys. - That's well said.
- That's insightful. - You shouldn't trust older boys.
Does it embarrass you too?
Not really.
When I say those things to her,
she just says, "Okay, Mom." But Eun Seong reacts...
in such a funny way.
- He reacts in a funny way? - He does?
"Stop it!" Like that?
If he says, "Okay, Mom," would you stop?
If he doesn't show much reaction, I'd stop because it's boring.
So you're basically teasing him.
Your reaction makes your mom continue.
Just say, "Okay, Mom."
When she asks if you watched adult movies, just say yes.
Like that.
When she says take it easy, say, "Okay."
Just answer like that.
I tried, but she...
She continued?
When we're walking together,
- she kisses me. - Where?
- On the lips. - On the lips?
Also,
she grabs my bottom on the street.
I tell her to let go, but she doesn't listen.
It's become a habit.
- Grabbing your bottom? - You don't like it?
If someone sees us...
- Is it embarrassing? - They'd say, "He's so big."
You don't want her to do it in public.
You don't like it at home either, right? Be honest.
- Just answer. - Be honest.
- I don't like it. - Right?
- At his age, you don't like it. - He's so nice.
- He didn't want to hurt his mom. - He looked at Mom.
Were you aware he didn't like it?
His reaction is priceless.
He secretly enjoys it.
(I thought you enjoyed it.)
- I like touching my son's bottom. - Of course.
- He must be so cute. - My son is six. He said,
"When my bottom becomes dark, will you stop touching it?"
I said, "It makes me sad."
He said, "I'm sadder than you."
He's already so conscious about him growing up.
He's sad you won't touch him anymore.
He's already so mature.
As he's in seventh grade,
his worries must be so much deeper.
You didn't know how concerned your son was, right?
I didn't. He's grown up a lot.
- He has. - He has.
You have to accept that.
Boys grow up so much between 6th grade and 7th grade.
Your son himself must feel that...
he's become very different...
from earlier this year.
Don't say, "He didn't care earlier this year."
You have to accept it.
What subjects do you want your mom to stop bringing up?
- Masturbation, condoms... - Condoms.
- Condoms. - Adult movies.
Adult movies.
Also, I want her to stop saying those things to my friends.
- To your friends. - You should really stop...
saying those things to his friends. At their age, they're sensitive.
It'd be so awkward.
It might harm their self-esteem too.
I'm just worried.
That's why I talk about those things.
- But maybe it was too much. - That's right.
What do you want to talk about with your mom?
I want her to ask me...
if my studies are too hard.
She doesn't ask that?
- She likes to tease him. - She does.
She's so playful.
Other than sex education,
do you talk about his school life with him too?
(Laughing)
You don't?
I'm afraid he'll give up too easily.
I push him a bit...
- when it comes to studying. - You push him.
It's great if your sex education achieves a good result,
but it might have a reverse effect.
I think you should be more careful from now on.
(Please look for other ways.)
Jun Ho, do you think it's a worry?
It sounds like she's just teasing him.
It doesn't sound like...
- sex education. - That's right.
I think it's a worry.
If she keeps joking around,
I think her son will just try to avoid her.
- You're right. - I think it's a worry.
- I don't think it's a worry. - You don't?
I agree she went a bit overboard,
but at his age, he really needs sex education.
I think it's a worry.
Please press the button if you think it's a worry.
(What does the audience think?)
- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
- Stop. - Time's up.
Please say something to your son.
Son, I love you.
I'll always trust you.
Let's find out how many votes they got.
(The result)
"Sexual Problem".
It must be over 100.
- 136. - That's high.
They won a lot of votes.
This story is very funny.
This person is angry at our show.
Our show?
Hello, I got married a year ago.
I should be happy, but I'm so lonely.
My husband is distracted every night.
"It's starting."
(It's starting.)
(Hello)
My husband is obsessed with Hello.
Our show?
In addition to watching it when it's airing,
he watches the same episode more than 20 times.
- Our show? - More than 20 times?
Shouldn't we hire him?
"Honey, earlier today..."
"That's crazy. That's hilarious."
He never listens to me.
"Honey, stop watching that. Aren't you tired of it?"
"How dare a woman nag her husband?"
He mimics...
the problematic husbands that have been on the show.
- He mimics them? - Like mimicking actors.
- The most absurd thing is that... - He plays around.
he says this while watching Hello.
"What kind of husband does that? That's too much."
The thing is, my husband is...
just as problematic as those who have been on Hello.
I'll tell you everything. Please listen to me.
(I'll tell you everything on the show.)
- He's the first Hello addict. - That's right.
A wife is worried about her Hello-addicted husband.
Please come out.
(Whose husband is addicted to Hello?)
(Hwang Ye Ji)
(Se Hun gives her a hand.)
(I am so jealous.)
How did it feel to be escorted by Se Hun?
- My heart is about to burst. - I see.
It didn't burst.
How much does your husband like Hello?
When he comes home from work, he watches Hello...
- until he goes to bed. - I am so thankful.
Does he watch it on demand?
He watches it on demand.
- The program airs on Monday. - Yes, it does.
Around 11pm,
- he sets an alarm. - Does he set an alarm?
- When it's time, - I am so thankful.
he switches the channel to watch Hello.
Sometimes, he watches the show...
- until 3am. - He watches Hello.
He struggles to go to work the next day.
He becomes that way from watching Hello.
(He gets sunken eyes.)
Did this program become...
something like alcohol or cigarettes?
It's okay to enjoy a TV program.
It's not a big worry to have a husband who watches Hello.
We are newlyweds.
I want to talk to him when he comes home.
Of course you do.
When I talk to him about the living expenses...
or what happened in the family,
he goes, "Okay. Okay."
- He answers while he watches Hello. - Yes.
He answers absentmindedly.
Later on, he goes,
- "When did you tell me that?" - He doesn't remember.
He says that.
"Does he ever listen to me?"
I can't help but feel that way.
Don't you spend time with him on weekends?
On weekends, he watches Hello...
from the moment he wakes up until his bedtime.
Does he watch Hello on weekends?
- Yes. - He watches it on weekends.
He watches it from morning until night.
"I heard this place is nice."
- "Let's go." - You want to dine out.
Even if we had promised to do that,
he watches one episode after another.
"Gosh, this is troublesome. Let's go some other time."
This happens.
Why did he never apply to be the audience?
He did apply.
- He did apply. - He applied multiple times.
- However, he failed 5 or 6 times. - He failed to get a seat.
- He failed to get a seat. - That's why he sent in a worry.
That's why...
He is smart.
He sent in a worry because he couldn't get a seat.
I have another worry.
You said you will reveal another worry...
- on the show. - There is another worry.
You said you will reveal it.
- What is it? - He is addicted not only to Hello,
but also to tonkatsu.
- Tonkatsu? - Yes.
My goodness.
(He is addicted to Hello and tonkatsu.)
Is he addicted to Hello and tonkatsu?
- Yes. - It's not a worry.
He can eat tonkatsu if he wants to.
How often does he eat tonkatsu?
- He eats it every day. - Every day?
- Yes. - He eats tonkatsu every day.
On weekends, I make him tonkatsu in the morning.
He eats tonkatsu three times a day.
That must be convenient. You only need to make tonkatsu.
(That must be convenient.)
After eating it so often,
- I am sick of it. - You are sick of it.
- Not only that, - You can't eat it every day.
- I hate the smell of oil. - Of course you do.
So Hyun, you were a newlywed.
What are your thoughts on her worry?
I can sympathize.
Her husband is addicted to tonkatsu,
but Jun Ho is addicted to meat.
He doesn't eat rice without meat.
He doesn't eat rice at all.
- He only eats meat. - He only eats meat.
- He eats pork belly in the morning. - In the morning?
- He also eats pork rind. - In the morning?
He grills and eats them before sitting down at the table.
- That's incredible. - Pork belly and pork rind.
Do you still do that?
Why are you looking at her like that?
Everything So Hyun said is true.
Okay.
You must love her more.
Let's hear from the husband who is addicted...
to Hello and tonkatsu.
Hello, it's nice to meet you.
Hello.
(Who is addicted to Hello and tonkatsu?)
I can see it from his looks that he likes tonkatsu.
Do you like Hello that much?
I like Hello...
because it has the MCs I like.
- Thank you. - Also,
the non-celebrity guests add...
a sense of reality.
I learn about the proper way of speaking...
to the others.
- You learn from the show. - Yes.
I can learn it in an indirect way.
I think it's a valuable program.
Do you watch the same worry 20 times...
when you find it interesting?
Dramatic worries are fun.
I watch it over and over again because it's fun.
Which worry was it?
Recently, it was about a father who is addicted to gambling.
Some time ago,
there was a worry about a husband who is addicted to amusement parks.
There was also a man who swears at his wife.
- That's right. - My goodness.
He remembers everything.
He upset everyone in the nation.
It's interesting to see the worries that involve...
patriarchal husbands.
Do you want to be patriarchal?
I find it interesting to watch them...
say unimaginable things.
Can you give us an example?
"How dare a woman do that?"
- My goodness. - Wait a minute.
I say it as a joke.
- You don't mean it. - I am not like that.
How do you feel when your husband says those words?
When I tell him to stop smoking or eating tonkatsu...
"Stop eating tonkatsu."
- Tonkatsu! - "Stop watching Hello."
When I make complaints, he goes,
"How dare a woman make comments..."
"when her husband is speaking?"
He keeps doing that.
"What is going on? Is he serious? Is he joking?"
I do it for fun.
A repeated joke can offend the other.
She wasn't offended.
It sounds like she was a bit offended.
- Was she offended? - How dare you make comments?
(Saying those words repeatedly would offend anyone.)
How did you start to like Hello?
One day, I saw my wife...
watch Hello.
It was very fun. It had my favorite MCs, too.
You must like us a lot.
He keeps saying that.
Because the program was so funny,
I watched a year's worth of episodes on demand.
He watched a year's worth of episodes.
You provided the cause.
I watched it because it's a fun show I like,
but I didn't know he would become so absorbed in it.
How does it feel to be on the show?
It's exciting,
- but I am... - He says it's exciting.
on the seat of the offender.
I wouldn't say that.
- I wouldn't say that. - You are not an offender.
- You are not an offender. - This isn't the court.
He watched the show too many times.
- This isn't the court. - Go on.
I keep thinking that I must watch what I say...
and keep up my image.
In your opinion,
what are pros and cons of this program?
There is something that makes me feel bad.
An episode airs...
a week or two after the shoot.
I am sure the guests are repenting...
and trying their best to fix their problems.
But when the episode airs, viewers write malicious comments.
- He is thorough. - He offers an original thought.
The guests' hearts must ache.
Not even the production crew studies so thoroughly.
What about malicious comments?
The guests' hearts must ache.
You are thinking about the guests.
- It's regrettable. - He is sharp.
Your wife says she has a worry.
What do you think about it?
Compared to those of the women with patriarchal husbands,
her worry lacks strength.
In that case,
let's say the three levels are serious, moderate, and trivial.
On which level is her worry?
It's very trivial.
- It's very trivial. - It's very trivial.
You know, most people in that seat think that way.
(They all think that way.)
Why do you like tonkatsu so much?
(You think the worry is trivial.)
I have a child's taste.
The mouthfeel of food is important to me.
- The mouthfeel. - I like the crunchy mouthfeel.
I fry tonkatsu until it nearly gets burnt.
- Until it nearly gets burnt. - You make it dark in color.
I don't even dip it in sauce.
- Are you boasting? - Yes.
Yes, I am.
I like crispy food.
You like crispiness and the oily taste.
- That's right. - You like that about tonkatsu.
You can refuse to make tonkatsu.
When I refuse to make tonkatsu, he acts cute.
- Your husband does that. - Do you make tonkatsu to stop him?
No, it's not like that.
Isn't it nice to see your husband act cute?
This is what he does when I don't make tonkatsu.
When I set the table without tonkatsu,
he acts cute.
- Tell us how he acts cute. - Tell us.
Am I the only one who thinks this way? He is handsome.
Go on.
You are the only one who thinks that way.
He is cute.
- Ye Ji. - This is a worry.
This is a worry.
Go on. Let's say that he is handsome and move on with the story.
What does he do?
He stands in front of the refrigerator...
and stomps his feet like a baby.
He frowns and says,
- "Please make me tonkatsu." - I bet he looks cute.
Would you give us a look?
(Clapping like a seal)
Pick up your microphone and stand up.
Imagine that you are in front of the refrigerator.
(He stands up reluctantly.)
At first, I say,
"Make me tonkatsu."
- "Eat what you have!" - Tell him that you don't want to.
No. Stop eating tonkatsu.
- Let me eat it this once. - No. Don't eat tonkatsu today.
- I won't eat it tomorrow. - No!
(Gosh, I want tonkatsu.)
(Make sure you act cute at home only.)
He looked cute.
- He looked cute. - I would make him tonkatsu.
- He looked cute. - They are newlyweds all right.
- He looked cute. - He is...
He has a cute figure.
I wouldn't say that I was acting cute.
I was pestering her for tonkatsu.
Still, you know that you are cute.
I think I am a bit cute.
You know that your cute act will get you what you want.
She grew accustomed to it.
It doesn't work anymore.
Why can't you make tonkatsu on your own...
without acting cute?
These days,
- I make my own tonkatsu. - You make your own tonkatsu.
What's annoying is that he only makes...
and takes tonkatsu.
- He doesn't clean up. - Oil splatters on the wall...
- and on the floor. - It splatters everywhere.
I wipe them every 2 or 3 days...
with lemon and baking soda.
- He doesn't clean up after himself. - He doesn't.
Su Ho doesn't clean up after himself either.
Really?
(My goodness.)
How would you feel if Su Ho doesn't clean up?
I will clean up.
(They are the two extremes.)
Does he enjoy everything...
you cook?
No, he doesn't eat what I cook.
Does he only eat tonkatsu?
When you are a newlywed,
you want to put on an apron...
and make delicious dishes to eat with your husband.
I once made jeyuk bokkeum.
Since I wasn't familiar with the recipe,
- I spent hours to make the dish. - You put your effort into it.
He came home with a cooler.
I wondered what it was.
- Tonkatsu. - There was tonkatsu...
- inside the cooler. - He had ordered it.
"Honey, I made jeyuk bokkeum. Let's eat it today."
"We can eat that later. Let's eat tonkatsu today."
- The dish was already made. - Jeyuk bokkeum is delicious.
- What's wrong with jeyuk bokkeum? - Are there more stories?
I had found a recipe for a mackerel dish on the internet,
so I made it.
He took a bite and reacted as if a pregnant woman would.
He went to the bathroom and spat out the food.
"Why did you spit it out?"
- He said that it tastes bad. - How did it taste?
Did you really have to spit it out?
She had deep-fried mackerel in curry sauce.
- A mackerel. - Yes.
- That sounds tasty. - Deep-fried mackerel is tasty.
When I bit into it,
I thought the fish was rotten.
You need to put on a show when you are a newlywed.
- You were too honest. - He could have hesitated...
before telling me that it tastes a bit strange.
As soon as he took a bite, he grimaced.
- Then he spat it out. - He spat it out.
It was upsetting.
Don't you think it was cruel to spit it out?
The taste was too strange.
It's better to say that fish bone got stuck.
Now that I think about it, that might have been the case.
"Now that I think about it..."
His tongue got pricked by fish bone.
Do you only eat tonkatsu because your wife can't cook?
I eat what she cooks, but there has to be tonkatsu.
Among the dishes she has cooked, which one was tasty?
- Tasty? - Which one was the tastiest?
Why did you ask back?
Stir-fried anchovies and dakgalbi.
- Dakgalbi. - Dakgalbi is hard to make.
Which one tasted bad?
Cold cucumber soup and seasoned vegetables.
I only like two kinds of seasoned vegetables.
I am curious about Ye Ji's cooking skills.
She brought side dishes she has made.
- Really? - Yes.
- We will taste them. - They will be delicious.
(Expectant)
Which side dishes are there?
(Here comes a table full of the dishes Ye Ji made.)
- You made them yourself, right? - Yes, I made them this morning.
She made these dishes this morning.
- Doenjang soup. - Seasoned chives.
- There is cold cucumber soup. - Is that water parsley?
- Water parsley. - Eggplant.
Let's have a taste.
It has been a while since I had a home-cooked meal.
Here you go.
There aren't many ingredients in doenjang soup.
- Is this doenjang soup? - There is fried tofu.
- Let's try cold cucumber soup. - It's a dish her husband hates.
- Let's try cold cucumber soup. - We will try it together.
- Here is a spoon. - It doesn't taste good.
- It's bland. - It's bland.
- It's bland. - It's a bit bland.
- It's bland. - It's bland.
You should have added more salt.
- I don't know what to say. - What is it?
(Laughing)
- What is it? - How does it taste?
- Tell us honestly. - Tell us honestly.
- Tell us honestly. - It only tastes like seaweed.
Doesn't seawater taste similar?
- It's the taste of the sea. - It tastes like seawater.
What do you think?
I think it will be tasty with ice.
- You want it cold. - That's what cold soup is for.
- Isn't it a bit bland? - Don't you think it's bland?
- I like it. - You like your food bland.
We will now try doenjang soup.
It's miso soup.
This one is nice. However, her dishes are...
- on the bland side. - This is sweet.
- This is sweet. - Is it sweet?
- This is... - This is sweet.
- Even though it's doenjang soup... - It's sweet.
- We will try seasoned vegetable. - I will eat it with rice.
It's not bad.
Aren't these dishes acceptable for newlyweds?
- This is okay. - This is okay.
Kelp seasoned with chogochujang.
She prepared water parsley well. It's tasty.
People who like deep-fried food don't eat water parsley.
- Her dishes tend to be sweet. - Yes.
- It's spicy. - Eggplant dish tastes good, too.
Is it spicy?
Was it a bad bite?
- Here is what I think. - She isn't a terrible cook.
While her dishes aren't incredibly tasty...
- They aren't half bad. - No, they aren't.
The dishes taste healthy.
How do the dishes taste compare to So Hyun's?
So Hyun's dishes are more to my taste,
but they are neck and neck.
- They are pretty much the same. - That's right.
So Hyun, what do you think?
- She got married a year ago. - That's right.
Her cold soup needs more vinegar. Other than that,
she is doing a marvelous job.
To change the heart of a man who is addicted to tonkatsu,
her dishes are lacking.
- You need to make a fishcake dish. - That's right.
Seasoned fishcake. Stir-fried fishcake.
You can't expect a child's taste...
to be satisfied with the dishes for people in their 80s.
Your husband will struggle with these dishes.
For someone who just got married,
- this is impressive. - She can cook pretty well.
My goodness.
(Yeong Ja doesn't disappoint.)
I am strong.
The dishes were pretty tasty.
Su Ho, how were the dishes in overall?
- They were pretty nice. - They were, right?
The only problem I had was the sweetness.
- I don't like my food sweet. - I see.
Other than that, the dishes were fine.
How would you react if your wife makes you this meal?
I think I would eat it well.
Right? You would do it out of love.
- What about you, Se Hun? - I enjoyed the dishes a lot.
He even liked the cold soup.
The dishes aren't as bad as we thought.
I never said that they are inedible.
- I just need a dish that I like. - Tonkatsu.
- Yes. - In essence,
he is like a child.
Children don't eat seasoned vegetables.
- They want sausages and meat. - Sausages.
I bet he likes meatballs.
When he eats tonkatsu,
I end up eating it with him.
That's why I keep gaining weight.
When we eat out, we have tonkatsu and spaghetti...
or tonkatsu and tonkatsu.
Tonkatsu and tonkatsu?
Don't you think you lack consideration?
It's incredibly selfish to insist on eating food you like.
Recently, we went to Cheonan.
- Sundae is a specialty of Cheonan. - That's right.
- Byeongcheon sundae. - Byeongcheon sundae.
- It's sold at Aunae Market. - Aunae Market.
Since I like sundae, I suggested that we eat it in Cheonan.
He had already looked up tonkatsu restaurants.
We arrived at lunch and had tonkatsu.
I thought we would eat something different for dinner.
However, we had tonkatsu for dinner, too.
- He is addicted to tonkatsu. - You must be sick of it.
I ask my wife,
"What do you want to eat when we dine out today?"
When she suggests something, I ask, "How about tonkatsu?"
- Why did you even ask? - She refuses once.
- She doesn't refuse twice. - You must act cute again.
I would have eaten what she wanted had she refused thrice.
You would have eaten what she wanted had she refused thrice.
I mean it.
- Really? - I must ask,
do you even know what she likes?
- She likes pasta. - Pasta.
Do you go to a restaurant that serves tonkatsu and pasta?
- Yes, we do. - Hold on. She is shaking her head.
- Is he wrong? - I like Korean food like gukbap.
I like hangover soup such as sundae soup.
Why did you think she likes pasta?
At the restaurants we go to, she always order pasta.
- That's because... - She chose pasta...
because she doesn't want tonkatsu.
Pasta was the most favorable among the choices.
Do your in-laws know about this?
Yes, they do. They are always worried.
My husband gained about 10kg after he got married.
He gained weight because of tonkatsu.
He weighs 99.7kg now.
- 99.7kg. - He doesn't look that way.
What do your in-laws say?
They tell me not to make tonkatsu because he needs to eat healthy.
It makes my heart heavy to see him continue gaining weight.
Is there a dish you like as much as tonkatsu?
- I bet he likes Spam. - Anything other than ham.
He likes ham.
Spam.
I told you not to include ham.
You like tuna, right?
- Yes, I do. - Nuggets.
They are for children.
(In conclusion, he only likes tonkatsu.)
The mouthfeel is similar.
- "They are for children." - The mouthfeel is the same.
Ye Ji's mother is here. Let's talk to her.
- Hello. - Hello.
Do you understand your daughter's worry?
Now that I’ve heard the full story, I do.
I once bought gwamegi for my son-in-law.
- Gwamegi is tasty. - It's in season.
- It's in season. - I like to drink,
- but my son-in-law doesn't drink. - He doesn't drink.
That's why I gave him gwamegi.
He ate it and grimaced.
There are people who can't eat it.
I asked him what's wrong. He said, "It's edible,"
"but unsavory."
To this day, I make him something and ask,
"Is it unsavory?"
(She checks every time.)
Then he says it isn't.
Here is a worry I have.
As Ye Ji's mother,
I want her to have a baby soon. However, there hasn’t been any good news.
That's because of Hello.
- He watches TV all day. - I bet...
you hate Hello.
No.
He watches Hello...
because he loves Dong Yeob.
Why does a man with classy tastes like tonkatsu?
The thing is,
you must know that it's not good for your health to eat it every day.
Aren't you worried?
I get a check-up once a year.
Except for the high cholesterol level,
there's nothing much wrong about me.
Why would you make that the exception?
- That's the problem. - That's bad.
(High cholesterol level is caused by eating too much fried food.)
- Who told you to do that? - Your wife is...
worried because eating fried food increases your cholesterol level.
Why would you ignore that?
That's just like me saying...
that I am perfectly healthy except for my liver.
It's just like that.
It seems like he's confident about his health.
He keeps telling himself that he is healthy.
As for me, I am suffering from the condition which is...
common among women these days.
It's polycystic ovary syndrome.
One of the causes is gaining a lot of weight...
over a short period of time.
If this condition continues,
there's a risk of infertility.
- No way. - That's what the doctor said,
and I cried as soon as I heard it.
So I asked my husband to work out with me...
and to lose weight together. But he said he was too lazy to do it.
- It's good that you came here. - It was right for you to come here.
Were you aware of her condition?
I heard more than 40 percent...
of Korean women are suffering from that condition.
So I didn't think it was serious.
Did you make that an exception too?
He's quiet yet very stubborn.
- Yes. - He's not considerate at all.
- He quietly does what he wants. - Right.
He has no consideration for his wife.
Don't you think you need to spend more time with your wife?
I guess she could feel that.
When I am into watching TV,
I don't hear her well.
What do you think about working out together?
You could run on a treadmill while watching Hello.
We played badminton a few times.
- How many times? - We played it for three days.
- Three days? - You need to keep doing it.
There's no point if you don't do it regularly.
Eating one dish over and over...
doesn't matter much to her. So what if you eat it?
But she's worried about your health.
I hope you will be aware of it too.
What do you want to tell him?
I am not saying you shouldn't...
eat tonkatsu everyday.
Once or twice a week...
is fine.
Also, I am not saying you should stop watching Hello altogether.
- My goodness. - That's a worry.
All right.
You can watch 1 or 2 episodes a day after work...
until around 11pm. Then we should try to make a baby.
- We should try hard. - That's the most important, right?
- Yes. - Yes.
That's my wish.
Su Ho, is this a worry or not?
- It's a worry. - Then press the button.
Okay.
She was constantly worried...
about their relationship.
From her point of view,
this is a worry without a doubt.
I think it's easy to be addicted to one thing.
It's just that his addiction has gone over the line.
So...
(They are impressed.)
That's why...
That's hardly impressive.
I think they can meet halfway...
if they talk to each other.
- So it's not a worry. - I won't press the button.
- So Hyun. - I think it's a worry.
The biggest problem is that...
he doesn't know what his wife likes.
After eating tonkatsu once and watching "Hello" once,
you should eat what your wife likes and watch what she likes once.
It's not okay with her, but because she loves you, she's accepting it.
(She's wise.)
She's very wise.
You married well Jun Ho.
I hope she will practice what she says.
You want her to practice what she says.
You surprise me. You really surprise me.
You should talk to him more.
Honestly, men don't know how women feel...
unless they are told.
You should tell him...
your honest feelings.
Then there won't be any worries.
If you sympathize with her, please press the button.
(What does the audience think?)
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Stop.
Please tell your wife something.
You are the one I love the most in this world.
Look at that. He's soft-hearted.
My goodness. He really loves her.
- He's soft-hearted. - You should've talked to him.
- He's soft-hearted. - Don't cry.
- What? - What did we do?
Stop eating tonkatsu!
Stop crying.
- He feels sorry. - He feels sorry.
- He didn't know. - He really didn't Know.
- He didn't know. - He's fainthearted.
He really didn't know.
- This is not that serious. - My gosh.
You just need to eat less tonkatsu.
Did someone die?
- No. No. - Ma'am.
He's...
- I'll get you tonkatsu. - Why are you weeping?
- Why are you weeping? - Come on and eat tonkatsu.
Talk to him, Dong Yeob.
- Sir. - Stop.
- Stop crying. - Why...
Why did you get so emotional?
Are you worried about how you'd look on TV?
He's so innocent.
- He's a good man. - He must've been shocked.
- He didn't know. - He didn't know.
- He feels really sorry. - He feels sorry.
You should continue talking.
- I had no idea. - Right.
Please talk to him.
He's cute.
She said he's like a kid, and he was really a child.
Children don't know anything.
When you were coming here,
- did you think you weren't... - Why is he so serious?
going to be much affected by it?
I never thought it was such a big worry for her.
What shocked you the most?
I came to realize about what I hadn't realized before.
- What would that be? - How inconsiderate he has been.
The fact that I was very inconsiderate of my wife.
He realized it now.
His tears were all wiped out.
He wiped them when his head was lowered.
I thought he pretended to cry because there were no tears.
But he actually wiped them.
I thought his face would be covered in tears.
But I couldn't see any tears.
- Keep going. - She's listening.
- Keep talking. - You should keep talking to her.
I will always consider your position first,
and I should take care of my health for us to live happily.
I will eat tonkatsu less frequently for my health.
- I will talk to you more. - Yes.
- How about Hello? - I will watch it...
when it airs. I will watch it again only a few times.
Okay.
All right. Tell her you love her.
Let's live together happily. I love you.
Please reveal how many votes she got.
(The result)
It seems like a lot of ladies voted for her.
It's over 100, isn't it?
100...
136?
(What did she get?)
She got 116.
Well done.
It's my turn. It's "Troublemaker".
Please play this part.
- Okay. - Okay.
Hello.
I am a housewife in her 50s...
who is agonized because of her son.
It was when my son was in high school.
His female teacher called me.
You are a female teacher.
Ring, ring, ring.
"Ma'am, this is Ji Hwan's teacher."
"Your son got caught while drinking."
My goodness.
My goodness. One time,
- I got a call from the police. - My gosh.
Ring, ring, ring. "This is the police."
"Your son got into an accident while riding a motorcycle."
He causes troubles every single day.
I thought he would change when he finishes his army service.
However, even after he got discharged from the army,
- Even after the army service... - I got a call. You're an agent.
Ring, ring, ring.
"This is a money lending agency."
- "Your son..." - A money lending agency?
- A money lending agency? - "Yes, a money lending agency."
"Your son didn't pay the interest on his loan."
(Is that it?)
- Is that it? - No. "Are you mad?"
That's my line.
He wants to act.
"Are you mad?"
"Why would you need to borrow money?"
"I did some sports betting."
- "I can just pay it back." - My goodness.
That's not all.
"Mom, lend me some money."
"Lend you what?"
"Why do you need money?"
"I got a loan and bought a used car."
- My goodness. - "I'll pay back later."
I can't believe it.
How can he be so shameless?
So much money is spent on settlement and loan payment.
Paying for them is never-ending.
Please change my son.
Let's bring in the lady who's worried about her son.
It's his mother. Please come on out.
(Who's agonized because of her troublemaker son?)
(Hong Seon Ja)
(Welcome.)
Since when has he been causing trouble?
I think it started when he was in high school.
- High school. - Since what year?
- Since the first year. - I see.
He began with smoking and drinking.
A lot of kids started riding a bicycle around that time.
It would've been fine if he didn't get into an accident.
- Did he get into an accident? - Yes.
- Did you pay the settlement? - Yes.
I paid 1,000 dollars.
My goodness.
- I assume he ran away from home. - Yes. Many times.
Not every child does it,
but it's understandable. When I was in high school,
I ran away from home too.
- But... - It's understandable.
But the problem arises when you do that as an adult.
- Right. - Continually doing it is wrong.
He always caused trouble when he was in school.
I thought he would get better after he serves the army.
- So I applied for it for him. - How old was he?
- As soon as he graduated. - At the age of 20.
After he got discharged...
Soon after he got discharged, I started getting notes.
They were from money lending agencies.
I asked him what they were,
and he wouldn't tell me. So I inquired about them at a bank.
It turned out he borrowed money...
to do sports betting. He had borrowed from four agencies.
He borrowed money from four lending agencies.
- He borrowed from four agencies? - Yes.
(Just the thought of it is frustrating enough.)
My goodness.
It was too much for me to handle, and I was very worried about it.
And my husband said we should pay for it...
because a man can sometimes make a mistake.
- So we paid for it. - As parents,
- you'd want to help. - We paid for it.
But it didn't end there. He bought a second-hand car next.
He paid 7,000 dollars for it,
and he borrowed money to pay for it.
So far, how much have you spent on him?
About 60,000 dollars.
(They spent 60,000 dollars on him.)
- 60,000 dollars. - Hold on.
That's the total amount. There's still some left.
For not attending the reserve force training, he's charged 700 dollars.
He didn't attend the training?
- He's got overdue phone bills too. - How much would that be?
That's about 3,000 dollars.
His overdue phone bill is 3,000 dollars?
It's all because of he bought things using his phone.
- That's why. - It's because of that.
(But the amount is too big.)
Does he work?
He always drank the night before work and got late for work.
So he couldn't last.
He can't work.
I wanted to teach him how to run a business.
So he's currently working in my restaurant.
What kind of a restaurant is it?
I am running a tonkatsu restaurant in Gwacheon.
Tonkatsu.
Is this tonkatsu special?
He's your customer.
(That's unbelievable.)
- You need to get him to come. - Have you seen that man?
- The situation isn't funny at all. - It's not.
She was very distressed...
about her son.
People who just turned it on would wonder why we're laughing.
"Why are they laughing about tonkatsu?"
- It's a very serious situation. - It's...
(They're laughing because of this man.)
Did something trigger him to case troubles?
Has there been problems in the family?
There's nothing that I am aware of.
Did you ask him why he's causing troubles?
He won't answer.
And yet I get those notes,
and it's driving me mad.
(It's very frustrating.)
Let's see what your son has to say.
He's sitting quietly over there,
and he looks like chubby Ha Jung Woo.
- Yes. - Is he your son?
Yes.
What's his name?
It's Jung Ji Hwan.
Where are you, Ji Hwan?
(Who is her handsome troublemaker son?)
He's handsome.
He does look like Ha Jung Woo.
(But he's a troublemaker.)
She told us about you.
What did you think listening to her?
I admit that what I did was wrong.
I feel sorry to her,
so I've come out here to make a promise to her.
- You want to change now. - Yes.
Let's give him a round of applause.
He made up his mind before coming here.
By the way, it's the same with everything.
First, you have to admit what you have done wrong...
in order to change.
I hope you will tell us everything today and decide to be different.
Why did you cause trouble in the first place?
I loved playing ever since I entered high school.
So I started skipping classes.
I even thought about dropping out.
But I managed to finish high school.
Then I joined the army right away.
I understand the playing part.
It's understandable. I played a lot too.
I played a lot during school days.
- But I don't understand... - You're an adult now.
borrowing money.
Why did you keep borrowing money?
At first, I tried sports betting out of curiosity.
- When I started winning money... - You won money.
I got addicted to it.
- You got addicted. - And I couldn't stop.
(It was the beginning of the misfortune.)
Exactly how much did you borrow?
I borrowed 5,000 dollars from 4 money lending agencies.
- That's 20,000 dollars. - 20,000 dollars.
- Actually, from 5 agencies. - 25,000 dollars.
And they had...
the highest interest rate.
It had the highest interest rate.
The interest rate must be around 20 percent.
When borrowing money,
you usually think about interest.
- Right. - Did you not think through?
Or did you think you were going to win more money?
At the time, I couldn't think about the interest.
- You just did it. - Right.
- He was addicted to it. - Right.
He couldn't think it through.
By the way, when you were getting more and more debts,
- why did you buy the car too? - Why buy a car?
You were going to get more debts.
I was very interested in cars at the time.
I wanted to ride it. That was the biggest factor.
I wanted a car.
When you want something, do you have to have it?
Do you do things without thinking through?
- I have a tendency. - You think so.
From now on, I won't cause any more trouble.
I want to promise that.
You think you are not causing any trouble at the moment.
Yes.
It's still on-going.
- Why do you say that? - Why is that?
Even now, he drinks until four in the morning.
- And he skips work the next day. - Right.
How many times a week does he do that?
He drinks 3 to 4 times a week.
So he either skips or comes in late 3 to 4 times a week.
- He comes in late. - What time is he...
supposed to report to work?
- What time do you open? - We have to open the restaurant.
So he's supposed to leave the house at 9:30am.
But what time does he actually come?
He comes around noon. Sometimes he comes at 3pm.
That's wrong.
Was he that irresponsible when he was working for another person?
I think he was the same when he was working elsewhere.
But I didn't know.
Did he cause any other trouble while being drunk?
When you drink a lot, you can get into trouble.
- Some have bad habits. - He caused many trouble.
He once fought with a taxi driver, and he had to pay the fine.
We live on the 4th floor, and he once slept on the 3rd floor.
What? He slept in another person's house?
He makes a lot of mistakes when he's drunk.
Don't you remember sleeping on the third floor?
I remember it.
I was very drunk at the time.
We don't have an elevator, so I thought I walked up far enough.
- The door was open. - Was it open?
I thought Mom left it open. It was the morning.
So I went in and slept.
And the owner and the police came and woke me up.
- That must've surprised you. - The police came.
I thought I was at home.
So I asked why they are in my house.
He was still drunk.
It seems like you are not very good at drinking.
You lose your control.
This all happened in the past.
These days, even when I drink...
- Do you go home well? - Yes, I go home well.
You're supposed to go to work at 9:30am.
But you go to work at noon.
Mom goes to work around 9am, and I go around 2 to 3pm.
And I stay there until it closes.
That's why i thought it was okay for me to go in late.
- That's what you thought. - Yes.
(But it happens all the time.)
Why did you quit your previous job?
Well, I...
- You drank. - Yes.
- You often skipped work. - Right.
If you are a responsible person, no matter how much you drink,
- you still have to go to work. - Right.
When I drink, I can't get up in the morning.
I know it's wrong.
How many jobs have you had so far?
About five.
What was the longest job you've had? How long did you have it for?
The longest was six months.
- Six months. - What was the shortest?
The shortest job I've had lasted for a month.
- Right. - Have you thought about...
drinking only on weekends?
I think about it a lot. I do.
I want to drink only on weekends.
- But you meet your friends. - When my friends are hang out,
- I want to join them. - Right.
His friend is here too.
Where are you?
- Hello. - You are his drinking buddy.
We often hang out together.
How is he when he's with friends?
He's just the same as now. He's quiet.
He becomes talkative when he gets drunk.
And he becomes unbelievable.
- Does he have drinking habits? - His drinking habits are quite bad.
- What are some of them? - What are those?
After he drinks two bottles,
he starts picking fights.
I don't do that these days. I admit that it was bad before.
- You don't do that these days. - Hey.
Not being able to wake up in the morning is a bad habit too.
Right.
(He's a nuisance to other people.)
- If he drinks 3 to 4 times a week, - That's bad.
he must spend quite a lot. How is he?
He spends a lot.
I pay him 20,000 dollars monthly.
That's a lot.
500 dollars go into savings.
500 dollars go into paying the debts.
He gets to spend 1,000 dollars.
I deposit 1,000 dollars on his debit card.
When I checked the history,
most of his money was spent on karaoke, billiard, and drinking.
- He just hangs out with friends. - He only spends on three things.
He drinks soju with his friends,
play billiard, and go to karaoke.
Right.
Do you play with girl friends...
or your friend's girl friends too?
You hang out with girls too, right?
You don't hang out with only male friends, do you?
Most of the time I hang out only with my male friends.
You hang out with your male friends.
- No way. - I am really surprised.
(It's fascinating.)
What does your husband think about this?
Should I say indifferent?
At first, he scolded him and punished him.
But now that he's big,
my husband just says a man could do that.
That's what he says now.
(What does he mean?)
So I am the only one who's frustrated.
But when things go badly,
he asks me why I didn't stop him from spending money.
- He keeps putting the blame on me. - Does he?
It's upsetting me even more.
- Is he here today? - Yes.
Hello, sir.
Hello.
(Who is her husband who is indifferent about his son's issue?)
That's him.
There are some things we don't quite understand.
Shouldn't you have led your son towards the right direction?
I tried hard to do that. I scolded him a lot.
But a man sometimes does that.
Sir.
But that's no excuse.
He can drink and get up late.
But it's doing harm to his mother.
I know. Everything else is fine,
but my wife is very upset because of him.
That's what worries me.
- So why don't you scold him? - You should keep scolding him.
He's already too old.
(He's given up on his son.)
I scolded him a lot before. I can't scold him now...
because he's all grown up.
You keep saying he's all grown up.
I am sorry.
Sir.
I heard you put the blame on her.
(He blames his wife for his son's behaviors.)
I don't remember it.
This is not a hearing. Why would you say you don't remember it?
Well... Why did I say that?
(He's very good at getting away.)
He doesn't want to cover his hands with blood.
His position is very vague.
What do you think about that?
- That must... - It's tough.
- It must be tough. - It must be.
He's our son.
He makes it sound like it's only the wife's problem.
- Did it bother you too? - I don't get it.
- Is your daughter here too? - Yes.
Do you understand your mom's worry?
Every time my brother gets into trouble,
my parents have a fight.
It gets pretty serious at home,
and...
Why would you nudge your daughter?
Every time that happens,
- I tell my mom not to help him. - Right.
He doesn't stop because Mom keeps helping him.
Then my mom would say...
I'd understand her when I have a child.
When she says that, I have nothing to say,
and I'd just let it go.
Do you get money from your mom too?
At least I work...
to support myself.
When do you feel pity for your mom the most?
She often drinks and cries...
when she finds out he got into trouble again.
Then she'd blame herself...
that we grew up this way.
That's when I get upset the most.
Do you ever get disappointed in your mom?
I'm not disappointed, but...
Stop nudging her. Why are you doing that?
I work to support myself,
- but sometimes it's not enough. - Right.
I sometimes ask her to lend me 20 or 30 dollars.
She'd be very picky and ask me all these questions...
about where I'm going to spend it to avoid giving me money,
but when my brother asks for money, he'd just stand beside her,
so she ends up giving him money.
Once he asks me for money,
he'd stand beside me until I give it to him.
- When he was young... - Quietly with that face?
Yes.
(He's gone too far.)
Her friend is here.
I think she'd understand her most.
- Hello. - Hello.
Tell me about your relationship with her.
We got to know through other friends...
from high school.
Do you understand her worry?
Yes. More than just understanding...
because we used to meet up once a month.
She's losing 2 to 3kg every time we meet,
and she lost up to 10kg.
She gets text messages telling her to pay back.
She only talks about how her son got into trouble,
and she's trying to settle it down.
At first, it was a few hundreds and thousands of dollars,
but now it's over 10,000 dollars.
She can't eat anything right now...
because she vomits everything she eats.
She's going to hospital regularly.
The doctor said it's from stress.
- It's basically the anger. - Right.
I'm upset she got to that point now.
What did the doctor say exactly?
I keep getting dizzy,
and I throw up.
I even have plantar fasciitis...
because I'm in a standing position all the time.
- It's not good for your knees. - Water fills in my knees.
- My goodness. - My gosh.
(Her whole body is not healthy because of her son.)
It even got to the point where she thought about committing suicide.
- It didn't happen only once. - Because it's too much?
- Yes. - She did?
She just couldn't handle it.
It hurts me to hear that.
Were you aware your mom even thought about committing suicide?
No.
Is it your first time hearing it?
Yes.
How do you feel?
I'm very sorry.
I have nothing in my mind, but I should be better now.
It's not your first time saying that, is it?
- No. - You said that every time, right?
- Right. - When you got into an accident,
and when you slept in someone else's house after you got drunk. Right?
- Right. - It goes on, right?
Your mom decided to be on Hello...
because you never made any improvements.
- Did you say you're 25? - Yes.
My mom passed away when I was 25.
My brother suffered an ear disease when he was young,
so he couldn't learn to talk because he couldn't hear.
He ended up becoming hearing impaired.
Since then, she felt guilty about not taking him to a hospital early.
- She kept getting stressed... - Stress.
and it continued to affect her.
Even though she never smoked or drank,
the stress piled up inside her,
and she passed away when she was in mid-50.
You have to get a grip from now on.
You have to be cruel to think that everything...
you're doing right now is reducing your mom's life expectancy.
You must think that every time you get into trouble...
after drinking, you're only struggling to...
kill your mother.
(Will the son stop being a burden to his mother?)
These two EXO members aren't just here for nothing.
Tell us how you feel, Su Ho.
I was a trainee since grade 10.
I trained for about 6 and a half years until I debuted when I was 21.
I hurt my leg while I was a trainee.
I almost had to give up my dream.
I also experienced adolescence during that time.
My parents made me take responsibility...
for what I did at the time.
Sure.
I also saw my parents crying many times...
which made me think I should never do that again.
I hope he stops if he really cares about his mother,
and his parents should teach him to take responsibility...
for his sake.
Right.
Tell us what's on your mind.
I have no complaints. I still love my son.
Since he's 25 now,
I want him to plan before spending money.
I want you to set a goal and achieve it.
I want you to take this chance to live for the best.
I want you to live with planning,
sound and healthy.
- If you think it's a worry... - Now...
shall we start with Su Ho?
- You think it's a worry. - Yes.
I knew it.
(It's not his turn yet.)
What's wrong with you?
That was fast.
Did you decide to follow him?
He never pressed once, but this time, he was so fast.
- Wait for your turn. - I know!
- He was in a rush. - He couldn't wait.
His mother's not healthy.
That's how stressed she is.
(As much as she's sick, she's stressed.)
I think it's a huge worry.
It was the first time for Se Hun to agree with him. What did you think?
Yes. Should I press it one more time?
- No. - No. You can't press it twice.
It hurts my heart to hear that his mother is not healthy.
I hope he decides to change,
so that his whole family...
can be happy.
I also think it's a worry.
Rather than saying that you'll stop drinking and change,
I suggest you find what you really want to do in your life.
- Then I think your day will change. - Right.
I also think it's a worry.
If you think she suffered a lot,
please start pressing the button now.
(What does the audience think?)
- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
- Stop. - Time's up.
I'm sure you haven't had a chance...
to talk to your mother.
Say everything on your mind.
I'm sorry that I only caused trouble...
until now. I really am.
I've been saying that I'll be good until now.
I don't know if you'll trust me again,
but I'll start working with responsibility.
I'll only drink once or twice a week.
I'll take that as you'll only drink on the weekend.
I'll be a good son from now on.
I hope you trust me.
There will be many criticisms...
for what you have done,
- but you have to face it. - Yes.
It's due to what you've done.
Please say something to your family.
I hope you'll stop being a spectator,
and be concerned about him...
seriously with me.
Don't tell me to worry about it alone.
Sir. Please share the burden with her.
- Sure. - Stop giving excuses please.
- Okay. - Good.
(Cheer up.)
