We said we'd be able to hold a debate over any given topic.
We'll choose random topics from 100 topics we received on our social meda.
"I am in love with a friend who is in a relationship."
(Heated debate starts!)
I think love is something...
you can't stop just because you're friends.
(Unfettered opinions and excited reactions)
A woman I loved had a boyfriend, so I just took her away from him.
You got punished for that, right?
No.
I...
"My daughter was kissing that guy."
(That's so embarrassing.)
A bbobbo(peck in Korean) always has pure intentions,
but a kiss sometimes doesn't.
Hey, isn't bbobbo "Kiss" in English?
(Now that you mention it, you're right.)
- A bbobbo is okay, but not a kiss. - What are you saying?
Is kissing an adult's thing?
A kiss involves using your tongue.
(Are they okay with mature topics?)
He's almost like a family member of "Non Summit Meeting".
Yes.
He sent us a topic through a video clip.
I wish our G's...
will have a time to talk about it.
(What's Mr. Jin's special topic?) - Mr. Jin?
- I'm really curious too.
Let's start the meeting.
I'm Jun Hyun-moo, the chairman of Non Summit Meeting.
I'm Secretary General Yoo Se-yoon.
I'm Chairman Sung Si-kyung.
- We're Junyoosung. - We're Junyoosung.
Come on in. Welcome.
(We welcome the representatives of each countries.)
It's getting hotter and people are dressing more lightly.
Samy's working out really well.
Sure.
(Awkward laughter)
Did you upload your picture online again?
(Did you upload your picture on social media again?)
How's your exercising coming along?
- Yes, I'm doing well nowadays. - Right.
You're going to go around topless starting from July, right?
(You're going to go around topless starting from July, right?)
(Watch your eyes.)
Something like this is illegal in Egypt.
I'll post a lot of pictures.
Samy,
Guilaume, and...
Andreas are working out, right?
Can you teach us some exercises?
For our viewers.
For getting into shape.
Yes, I can.
You don't even need dumbbells.
- I'll just... - Okay.
- teach you some exercises... - That you can do at home?
- that you can do at home. - Wow.
Using just your body?
Okay, then. Guilaume and Andreas.
come up here and...
- show us. - Right.
Okay.
- Oh. - Wow.
"The Non Summit Physical Training."
- "Non Summit..." - It's BPT.
It looks like his shirt is going to burst.
You're right.
Well, everyone.
First,
I'll teach you...
Diamond Burpee.
(Guilaume is an experienced instructor.)
Diamond Burpee?
Oh.
Like that...
If you want a watermelon-shaped bottom,
(If you want a watermelon-shaped bottom)
- A watermelon-shaped bottom? - This is...
I don't want to have a watermelon-shaped bottom.
(You mean apple-shaped.)
(That would be too big.)
First...
When you first start,
you do a push-up.
Then,
you need to pull your feet...
up to your wrists.
After that,
you need to jump.
(Even just thinking about it feels horrible.)
Then,
when you jump,
you need to shape your body into a diamond.
You need two diamonds.
One on the top, another on the bottom.
Ready?
- Yes, let's go! - Let's go.
(Like this!)
- That's hard. - That's going to be hard.
That's going to kill me.
- You're right. - That's really hard.
Are you only going to do it twice?
- You can do this, right? - Yes, I can.
(Exercising)
Now, the second one.
Well...
- The second one... - Yes.
Your forearms.
If you want to say...
good-bye to the fat on your forearms,
- you... - Good-bye forearm fat?
This is called the Side-Crawl.
- Side-Crawl? - Side-Crawl?
Let me teach you.
You start like this.
Then, you move backwards.
Backwards.
- Then, you go forward again. - Gosh.
- What is that? - If you...
want to make it...
harder,
you can also...
move sideways.
I'm sure I can do that.
Okay.
- When you drink... - This is difficult.
It's hard when you actually try it.
When people are drunk, they all end up like that.
(Laughing)
If you're feeling confident,
- You can also do this. - Wow.
He's good.
Hey, Guilaume isn't that good.
(I told you it's not easy.)
I think it'd be nice if Hyun-moo does it.
But, will doing this on the show a couple of times be effective?
- It's only going to be exhausting. - Give it a try.
They both need to exercise.
I think this is going to be too hard.
People like us who don't exercise need to do something easier.
- If we do something too intense... - We'll do all of them consecutively.
- Okay? - Do whatever you want to do.
(You can do it.)
Ready? Set, go!
Ouch!
(He's running into trouble from the start.)
(Yet, the training continues.)
- When you jump up... - 50 times more!
I don't want to have a watermelon-shaped bottom.
(Hang in there.)
From here,
you go back like this.
- Ouch. - Make him do it.
- Backwards? - How?
- His body is round. - Legs first.
- This is going to be difficult. - Lift your bottom up.
Life your bottom up.
- But, don't move your feet. - Keep your feet still.
(Smirking)
(He's laughing because he's exhausted.)
I can do this.
You look like a crab.
- Hey, this is easy. - It is, right?
Wow. No problem.
Thank you.
(Where are you running away to?)
Good work everyone.
Why do you make the old guy suffer?
Hyun-moo, how was it?
- I feel this all the, but... - Yes?
I'll just live and die as I am.
When I look at myself from the early episodes
I look decent.
- We all did in the early episodes. - We all looked all right.
Our looks are all ruined now.
- What? - Why?
- I hope we'll all become healthy. - That's right.
We learn about the representatives' pride in their own cultures and...
discard misconceptions and biases against other cultures...
in our first segment, "What Country? Neighboring Country!"
Today's one-day non summit member is from the Jewel of Arabia which is...
well known for its 1,000 years' history and Casablanca.
I introduce to you, Amin Amor from Morocco.
He's handsome.
(The country where Africa and Europe coexists)
(Morocco, the Jewel of Arabia)
(Hello)
(I'm Amin.)
(I'm from Morocco.)
(I'm studying at Yonsei University.)
Did he say he's living in a leased house?
(Did he mention Chairman Jun's trauma in real estate?)
- I'll speak in Korean. - Okay.
Hello, I'm Amin.
I'm from Morocco.
- I go to Yonsei University. - Wow, that’s a good school.
- He said Yonsei, not lease. - Oh, lease was Yonsei.
- Yes. - Nice to meet you.
A lot of Koreans confuse Morocco with Monaco.
It is confusing. It's really confusing.
Can you give a proper introduction of Morocco?
Lots of people confuse Morocco with Monaco.
Monaco is a small country in the Mediterranean. It's in Europe.
Morocco is in North Africa.
It's a Muslim country with Arabic influences.
It was also a colony of France and Spain.
- It's very progressive. - I see, it's progressive.
- Is Morocco progressive? - It is.
I agree.
- Have you been there? - It's Arabic, but progressive?
It does have Arabic culture,
but it's close to Spain and France.
It was also invaded a lot,
so it's very progressive.
- Wow. That's surprising. - So...
The distance between Morocco and Spain is less than 14km.
- Really? - You can date publicly too, right?
- But, that's... - Is it okay to kiss on the street?
That differs from person to person.
But it's a Muslim country, kissing on the street is a bit...
I heard you can date freely too.
- You can date? - Really?
You can.
Dating...
is not considered a big deal.
jealous?
(read my mind)
(I knew he would do that.)
Let's learn about Morocco from Amin, our one-day representative.
To me, Morocco reminds me
of the movie "Casablanca".
That movie has a lot of cheesy lines like an Italian movie.
In the scene where they do a toast, the man says to the woman...
"Here's looking at you, kid".
(Here's looking at you, kid.)
(Skipped a beat)
Anyway, I really enjoyed the movie.
A toast to the eye would really hurt.
(They're immersed in their skit today as well.)
(Very satisfied)
(Their passion for the skit grows bigger each day.)
Anyway, they didn't film the movie in Morocco despite the title.
Yes, you're right. "Casablanca" was popular,
But because of the second World War.
They actually filmed it in America.
-In America? -A studio in America.
-Really?
What's the city of Casablanca like?
Casablanca is rich in culture and good food.
The movie "Casablanca" was popular.
Yes.
But, the city became popular too.
- Because of this movie? - Yes.
The place in the picture above is Rick's Cafe from the movie.
They made a cafe just like it in Casablanca.
A lot of people ended up coming.
Casablanca is originally Spanish.
"Casa" means house and "Blanca" means white.
So if you say Casablanca in English, it's White House.
Casablanca gets its name because it has lots of white buildings.
As I know, Casablanca is such a romantic place.
They say, even man and woman who are complete strangers fall in love.
- Really? - Because it's so romantic.
- Is that the reason for visiting? - It's what people say.
Is the city that romantic?
In the movie, there's a man and a woman.
So, people look at the pictures and think like that.
You mean, people think of it as a place like that.
- Wow. - A romantic place?
I heard world's third biggest Islamic Mosque is in Casablanca.
It's the biggest one in Morocco and the third biggest in the world.
This is it.
(Hassan II Mosque)
- Wow.
It was built after a line from the Quran.
"God's throne rests atop water." That's what it was built after.
And it has a very wide square.
If you go inside, you can see all the designs and patterns.
- Yes. - It's beautiful.
And, it has a glass floor.
This is the pillar. It's about 200m in height.
So, you can see the pillar from anywhere within Casablanca.
They say it can hold a service for 100,000 people at once.
20,000 people inside, 80,000 people outside.
How many people can Yeouido accommodate?
- You don't hold a service there. - Yeouido.
You mean the church there? I don't really know.
That place is huge too.
- It's huge. - Yes.
You can't find a parking space on Sundays.
A guy from Ghana just asked about that church.
(Is he Ghanaian only in appearance?)
I heard they filmed movies like... "Mission Impossible"
and... "Gladiator" in Morocco.
Why do people often choose Morocco as a place for filming movies?
It's close to Europe...
and you can experience a range of different things in Morocco.
There's a desert, the sea,
the contemporary city,
and there's also a maze-like ancient city.
So movie makers really like Morocco.
There's a city in Ouarzazate.
There's a very big studio there. It's called the Atlas Studio.
It's about two-thirds the size of Yeouido.
(It's the largest movie set in Africa.)
It really is a good location for filming movies.
- The past and the present coexist.
Yes. There's a movie called "Black Hawk Down".
That movie was also filmed there.
The whole movie.
- Because Somalia's not very safe. - In Morocco?
Many cities in Morocco look similar to Somalian cities.
They filmed it there, but it received a lot of criticism.
Because the actors were all from Morocco,
they couldn't speak Somalian. So it was really...
Still, they filmed the whole movie there.
Should we talk about which movies where filmed there?
In Morocco...
For example, the scene with the desert in "Cleopatra"...
- was filmed in Morocco. - Wow, amazing.
- "Mission Impossible." - Wow.
The mosque in Casablanca came out in the background.
- Even "Star Wars". - Really?
- "Star Wars"? - Tatooine. It must be Tatooine.
- And "Gladiator" too. - "Gladiator"? Really?
- That was filmed there? - Yes.
And Morocco comes out often in the "007" series.
Wow, even "007"?
It came out there.
These are the people...
In "Spectre".
"Spectre." The bottom picture is "Spectre"...
and the top one is an ancient city in Morocco.
- Yes, Morocco. - I remember this scene.
And, "Sex and the City" was filmed in Morocco too.
There was a hotel. This hotel above is called Amanjena.
- Amanjena Hotel. - It means "Paradise".
It was filmed in Morocco.
The actors liked Marrakesh so much.
- Yes? - So, they...
stayed there for two months.
The actors? Because they liked it so much even after the shooting?
Yes, so they traveled around Morocco.
- Wow, that's amazing. - Wow.
Morocco's not a dangerous place to travel in, right?
It's not dangerous.
- Isn't it? - Are there no crimes and things?
There might be a few, but...
- That sounds even scarier. - No, that's...
No matter where you go, going to dangerous places is dangerous.
Of course, if you go about at night,
- it's... - Any place is dangerous at night.
All right.
- You mentioned a desert. - Yes.
- Sahara is in Morocco too, right? - Yes.
Sahara is...
Can we go sightseeing there?
- Yes, you can. - Wow, that's nice.
Sahara is the largest desert in Africa.
But, in fact, only 20 percent of it is sandy.
The rest of it is rocks. There's nothing there.
But, if you go on the desert tour, you can see the stars at night.
(It was chosen as the world's third best place for watching stars.)
You can see why people come to visit.
There's one thing I don't like about this place.
They hold a marathon.
- A marathon? - In the desert?
A marathon in the desert?
This is the marathon with 30 years of history.
- The length is 250km. For a week... - Even a regular 40km one is hard.
- How long is a regular marathon? - 42.2km.
It's a real survival race.
(This is the real survival race!)
Have you been to the desert, Amin?
I haven't been there.
But, this year...
I'm going to go to Morocco in the summer and go there.
You'll think of yourself as a foreigner.
(He's going to travel in Morocco like a tourist.)
We talked about the desert, but many people often think of Africa...
as a very hot place where it doesn't even snow.
But, I heard it snows in Morocco and that they even have ski slopes.
Yes, it normally...
-It has ski slopes?
When I tell people that it snows in Africa, they get shocked.
But, the truth it, Morocco has four seasons like Korea.
And it snows a lot in high elevations.
It snows enough to cripple vehicle traffic.
- Enough to block traffic? - Yes.
And, my favorite...
city is Ifrane.
- Ifrane. - Ifrane...
is located at about 1600m above sea level. When it snows,
there are people who ski on top of the mountain.
Here it is.
This is the ski slope.
It's completely beautiful.
People refer to Ifrane as the Switzerland of Morocco.
- Really? - Yes.
But this is naturally...
- It's a natural ski slope. - Yes, because it's natural,
- the facilities aren't excellent. - This place is so romantic.
There's a Moroccan festival that's listed as a UNESCO cultural heritage.
Which one is that?
A festival?
It's held in a city called Sefrou in Morocco.
- Sefrou. - It's called Sefrou in Moroccan.
They hold a cherry festival for three days every June.
- Cherry? - Cherry festival.
Cherries from Sefrou are very big and sweet.
Cherries there must be tasty because they get lots of sunny days.
I think cherry is synonymous to Moroccan.
And, they hold a beauty pageant too.
- Miss Cherry? - Yes.
- Miss Cherry, like Miss Tangerine. - Miss Cherry.
- Miss Cherry.
They pick the prettiest woman...
and the woman becomes the Cherry Queen.
Cherry Queen.
- Cherry Queen is amazing. - Wow.
- That's so cute. - Miss Cherry.
This looks like that Pac-Man.
(Pac-Man's food)
The highlight is the parade.
- The parade? - There's a parade.
The Cherry Queen gives out cherries to people.
- Really? - Yes.
She gives out cherries like this.
Is becoming the Cherry Queen...
a way to enter the entertainment industry?
Saying that you were one does earn you some popularity.
- So you become popular. - From cherry?
(Satisfied)
Let's talk about food.
Food? Shall we?
(They didn't even pick him to be the one to start.)
I don't know well, but I think food matters when you're traveling.
Tell us. What's tasty?
There are a lot of delicious things in Morocco.
The culture is diverse.
There are Berber, African, and European food.
Okay.
So, the most famous one is couscous.
- Couscous? - Yes, couscous.
Like this.
(Grand)
- Couscous is like rice, right? - Is this it?
Yes, that's couscous.
Couscous is normally made with grain.
You steam it, add vegetables, and eat it.
The most common couscous has seven kinds of vegetables in it.
People put in what they like and choose from it.
(Varies to suit different tastes)
It's delicious.
Is there a way to eat it?
People in old times would turn it into a small ball using their hands.
- Like a rice ball? - Yes, it's a bit primitive.
Oh, that!
The Egyptian bean I introduced to you is down there.
- Oh, that canned bean! - Wow!
- Hey, nice to see you again! - Have you tried it?
You can eat it as is, or you can cook it with eggs or meat.
- Have you tried it? - Yes, I have.
He says it was really good.
I found out...
There was a news article on it in Korea.
Middle Eastern food that won't make you gain weight.
- This? - There must be a downside.
If you have any left, give it to me. I ate it all.
What other dishes are there?
There are pastillas.
- Pastillas. - Yes.
- Yes, the one on top... - Pastillas.
- It looks delicious. - Right.
There are usually two types of pastillas. Seafood and chicken.
Seafood pastilla is made with...
seafood, noodles, soy sauce, and mushrooms. It's spicy.
Chicken pastillas is sweet.
You put in almonds and eggs. Then you sprinkle it with sugar.
- It looks tasty. - Yes, but...
The one on the bottom is tajine.
Isn't that some kind of cuisine in a pot?
- Yes. - That looks delicious.
Tajine is originally the name of a porcelain pot.
It has a bell-shaped lid.
When making tajine, you put the lid on top. It traps the steam.
Oh, you steam it.
So, the dish becomes juicy and tasty. It becomes soft.
You can make it with chicken, beef, or ram.
- Camel. - Yes, you can use camel meat too.
You must have never eaten pork.
To be honest, I had it by accident when I came to Korea.
It's hard to eat pork belly by accident.
(- Was it really an accident? - That's not an accident.)
- That's a good question. - He says it was an accident.
No, I order a lot of chicken cutlets.
I ordered the pizza cutlet.
I thought it was chicken because it was white.
After I finished it, my friend said it was pork.
Wasn't it tasty?
- What did it taste like? - I not sure because of the sauce.
Samy, didn't you have pork?
I never had it even by accident. I kept checking from the first day.
I don't eat choco pie because of that.
Why?
They use gelatin in choco pie.
- You can't eat Japanese ramen then. - Right.
But recently, people made halal ramen.
- Halal ramen? - Yes, halal beef.
- You couldn't eat ramen until now? - No.
Congratulations.
Thank you. It was really delicious.
Ramen is like a whole new world.
I thought you're advertising ramen.
(Is he trying to become a model for ramen advertisements?)
I heard Moroccans drink a lot of tea like the Chinese.
You have a diverse culture.
I'm curious about the kinds of tea you drink.
People often think East Asia or Europe has a tea-drinking culture.
But amongst tea-drinking countries,
Morocco is the fifth place. But, there's no East Asian country...
that ranks higher than Morocco.
- Not even China? - Not China.
I was surprised.
- I had no idea. - Our tradition of...
drinking tea has a history of 200 years.
It originally came from the U.K.
Unlike the U.K., we drink mint tea instead of black tea.
- It's called as-say in Arabic. - Wow.
- That's apple mint. - It has mint in it.
You put in mint leaves and sugar, then drink it.
Each person consumes 1.8kg of tea every year.
That's a lot.
That's why Moroccan people smell nice.
- What is he saying? - Really?
- Yes, they smell nice. - Do they smell nice?
We meet and say greetings. We kiss too.
- The scent flows into your nose. - You mean your girlfriends?
Moroccan people smell different.
- Women usually don't smell. - No, I mean men.
(Gosh)
What does Alberto smell like?
- Do I smell nice? - He doesn't smell nice nor bad.
- How about Zhang Yuan? - How is he?
I've never been that close to him.
What a relief.
Yes. If you go to a cafe or a Moroccan house,
when they pour tea, they pour it from up here.
(Serving tea from up high)
You have to make it foam up. The foam means welcome.
- The foam means welcome. - Right.
If it doesn't have the foam, I don't drink it.
In Morocco,
you drink three cups of tea by tradition.
The first cup is as bitter as life.
The second cup is as sweet as love.
What about the third cup?
The third cup represents death or illness, but...
For Moroccans, drinking three cups of tea is like drinking life.
That's a bit cheesy, isn't it?
"Here's looking at you, kid."
First cup is the bitterness of life. Second cup is the sweetness of love.
They can't drink alcohol, so they have to say that in a sober mind.
"Here's looking at you."
(I can't do it.)
I saw this picture before.
In the picture,
goats were sitting on the tree like pigeons.
Why do goats in Morocco climb trees?
I thought these goats are crazy.
These goats are crazy. Aren't they crazy?
- Aren't they fruits? - Isn't that a goat tree?
Why are they doing this? Are they sunbathing?
In southern Morocco, there are argan trees.
(This is in the Southwestern region where argan trees grow.)
There are lots of goats there. The goats...
are tough and have great sense of balance.
They climb the argan trees and eat the fruits.
- So, they're eating the fruits. - Yes, to eat the fruits.
(They're just having their meal.)
This one's risking its life to eat.
- It's risking its life. - Can they come back down?
But I've never seen them come back down.
You've never seen them come down? Do they live on the tree?
Put me down.
(Put me down.)
(Bursting into laughter)
There are seeds inside that look like almonds.
They don't get digested and get excreted with goat feces.
People use these seeds to make the argan oil we know.
So, argan oil is made with the undigested seeds.
Is argan oil only produced in Morocco?
Yes, almost all of it is produced in Morocco.
- You don't get a lot of it. - Right.
It takes 20 hours to get 1L of oil.
- It takes 20 hours for 1l of oil? - Yes, they make it by hand.
- It must be expensive. - Yes, it's a bit expensive.
They call it liquid gold.
- Yes, right. - Liquid gold.
It contains a lot of vitamin E.
It's used for making cosmetics.
Moroccan people eat it too.
They dip bread and things in it.
But, I heard the argan forests are disappearing.
Yes, because it became popular.
The oil, that is.
So, people produce lots of it.
Since they use goats in large numbers, the trees disappear.
So, the government is making efforts to preserve the trees.
I see.
In Morocco,
I heard that people instead of staying I love you.
Say I love you with my liver.
- Liver? - Yes, I heard they say that.
Instead of "I love you with all my heart"
-Yes, "I love you with all my liver".
His liver is healthy because he doesn't drink.
Love in a healthy way?
In Morocco, if you say I will give you my liver.
It means that you will give your life.
In Arab, we say she is like my liver.
"This person is like my liver."
Like the peace in the liver
Actually, the word originates from Babylon and Mesopotamia
In Mesopotamia, they say wisdom comes from the heart...
...and emotions come from the liver.
Liver love?!
Ganjang-gejang (Soy sauce marinated crab)
(Laughs alone)
(An embarrassing attempt at a play of words)
Good try, we'll try to air it some how.
(Trying our best to save the joke)
Prophets believed that they could see the future...
in the liver of the animal sacrificed to the gods.
It is also called the organ of the soul.
My mother used to call me "Ga-na (my liver)."
Really?
But, I'm Ghana (awkwardly)
You know when mothers say "Are you back my dear?"
My mother would say " Are you back my liver?"
Oh my liver.
The reason for our family problems is because of my liver.
(Because of my liver)
It's the same in China as well.
Really?
We use liver and heart alike.
"You are like my heart and liver."
Have you ever said that to a woman?
Yes...most likely...we use it quite often.
I didn't ask about we! I asked if YOU have used it!
-You! You! -(Embarrased)
Yes, I have. In Chinese we say Shin-gan-baobei.
-Ah (Chinese major)
-You've heard of it, right?
Shin-gan means heart and liver, Baobei means baby.
- Heart and liver, baby. - Heart and liver, baby!
Imagine you're saying it to a woman and say it romantically, in Chinese.
(Sound ringing in the nose)
(It makes their whole body cringe.)
(Help. Find me someplace to hide in.)
That looked painful.
It's something lovers say when they're just by themselves.
- His ears turned red. - Don't they say it like that?
(Liver is used for expressing love in many countries.)
We shared lots of topics about Morocco.
How would you like the viewers to remember Morocco?
Can you leave one last comment?
There are people in Morocco who like Korea.
There's K-pop contest, for instance.
- Really? - Yes, there is.
Who's the most popular K-pop artist in Morocco?
- Super Junior. - That's in Egypt.
- Jo Sae Ho? - He didn't go to Morocco.
(He's well-known for not going to places.)
Is Hyun-moo popular by any chance?
(Jun Hyun-moo? Who is that?)
(He was talking right next to Amin for one hour.)
(I'm sorry.)
My name came up on the screen over 20 times already.
- I'm Jun Hyun-moo! - I misheard what he said.
When Koreans go to Europe, they go to Spain,
but they don't come to Morocco, although it's really close to Spain.
-It's because they don't know about it well.
So, I wish a lot of people would come to Morocco.
Morocco has a diverse culture...
and has delicious food. I hope lots of people will visit.
- Okay. - To be honest, Morocco isn't...
a familiar country to Koreans.
We learned a lot about it thanks to your introduction.
- It was nice. - It was nice.
(Thank you.)
- Good work, Morocco. - Good work.
("What Country? Neighboring Country!")
"What Country? Neighboring Country!" It was fun!
Last week was the 100th episode of Non Summit Meeting.
How have you been?
(The studio was completely filled with Non Summit representatives.)
I cut down on my words, everyone. I did!
(Hidden talents)
Coming to Korea just to do that is like...
(The hilarious G's all gathered in one place.)
"Non Summit Meeting, Now I can say it."
- I like women with big breasts. - Big, big!
I saw Hyun-moo and...
was about to swear right away.
(Even the chairmen can't avoid the conflict.)
- It's just that he uses lots of new ideas. He's bad at debating.
- It depends on how you look at it, but as I see it...
Be friends. Don't fight and...
(Nikolai brought about world peace.)
To Guilaume, he helped me a lot.
I have one person to thank too. It's Hyun-moo.
The person who understood me was Zhang Yuan.
I have something to thank Tyler for.
- Really? - I thought he was a manger(?).
You mean, "My angel"?
(100th episode special's second story starts now!)
(No Summit Meeting, special 100th episode)
You're watching the 100th episode special of Non Summit Meeting.
(You're watching the 100th episode special of Non Summit Meeting.)
We often said we'd be able to hold a debate over any given topic.
We talked about the environment, science, world peace, and refugees.
We dealt with serious topics. But today,
we'll use lighter topics.
We'll talk about the topics sent to us by our viewers.
They might not be too light.
We asked our viewers to send us any topics for us to debate on.
Thankfully, many people participated.
We'll choose random topics from 100 topics we received on social media.
We received this much.
That's what we picked from the initial pile.
I'll pick a few from these again.
We'll narrow it down from those again.
Then when they're editing the clip the producer will cut it down again.
- I don't think this is the one. - Wow.
I have to be careful.
I'm not feeling nervous at all.
I don't feel nervous at all.
- I'll choose this one. - Okay.
This person's ID is Sun something.
I have a teenage daughter who's prettier than Seol-hyun.
(They suddenly pay attention.)
I'm so worried because there's someone she's dating these days.
I feel for him.
One day, I went to pick her up from the reading room late at night...
and she was kissing that guy.
(Let's party. Good job, good job.)
- You're not supposed to like that. - All these foreigners are clapping.
So this is how it feels.
I scorned her to break up with him and am keeping an eye on her.
I was a player back in high school, so I know how guys think.
So, I can't tolerate my daughter dating someone.
Is it abnormal if I tell my daughter to date after she becomes an adult?
- That's abnormal. - That's completely abnormal.
Let's have a show of hands. If you say it's abnormal, raise your hand.
(15 votes abnormal.)
Put your hands down.
Raise your hand if you think it's normal.
(These two are always conservative.)
- This guy too. - Sujan!
- Nepal. - His conservative.
We'll hear from Sujan, Samy, and Zhang Yuan first.
Why is it normal? Does she have to be an adult?
The word adult means enlightened.
(To Zhang Yuan, the word means an enlightened person.)
(Is the debate over?)
There's adolescence. So, after you become an adult,
there are things you can do as an adult and things you can't.
Is kissing an adult's thing?
A kiss involves using your tongue.
(Oh my.)
- It's the tongue person. - Tongue person.
(Why are you doing this to me?)
The girl's dad just turned the television off.
(Because of Yuan)
There's the word, bbobbo. Bbobbo is okay, but a kiss is not.
- How old were you when you did it? - When was your first kiss?
I wonder.
But she shouldn't kiss at a younger age than her dad did.
(Touched)
In my country, the parent would have rooted for the child instead.
That's great! Who is it?
(That's unbelievable.)
What I want to say is,
kissing is okay. But that's where it starts.
- They'll kiss and... - Start what?
- He's feeling worried. - That's right.
A bbobbo always has pure intentions, but a kiss sometimes doesn't.
Hey, isn't bbobbo "Kiss" in English?
(He can't rebut.)
- Bbobbo is kiss! - You're right.
Bbobbo is "Kiss" in English.
No, no.
Bbobbo is using lips.
(Ah-Choo)
(Creative use of broken English)
The people who said it's abnormal probably
thought of how the girl would feel.
- That's not true. - I think it's normal.
You need to think about how her mom would feel.
-The mom needs to educate her daughter on what's okay.
- Completely forbidding her is... - But...
With sexual education, something might happen...
to unprotected children. It's possible.
In my country, high schools give out condoms.
So, he should give her contraceptives?
Contraceptives and things. To be honest,
they'll do what they will.
They'll do it anyway, so you should teach them properly.
We're saying that they should do it later.
No matter how much you tell them, they'll just do it.
(Noisy and confusing)
Even if you tell them not to, they'll do it anyway.
This is the most important thing. If you tell them not to do it...
and something wrong happens,
they wouldn't want to tell you.
- Right. - But,
if you tell them to do it safely when they do it...
and tell them to let you know if there are any problems...
"I'll help you."
(That's completely unacceptable.)
- This is the answer. - That doesn't suit our situation.
- They'll do it anyway... - This is Korea.
No mom would say, "Do it and tell me".
A mom would... No, the daughter wouldn't say it.
- No, I mean... - Give me a megaphone!
Samy's misunderstanding.
You don't talk after doing it. They'll do it anyway, so...
- Exactly. - Do what?
I remember this one sentence. "They'll do it anyway."
I told my family when I was in high school.
- I'll do it anyway." - No, I said I'll get married.
(What?)
(Everything keeps ending with "They'll do it anyway".)
They show you everything in dramas and movies.
Yuan's method is the worst way.
(Why are you picking on me?)
What will you do if your daughter does that?
First, I'll talk to that jerk.
- That jerk? - Yes.
Why are you...
doing this to my daughter.
- That's right. - I'll ask him...
what kind of relationship they're in.
- What if he says they're in love? - If they're really...
in love, I'll ask him if he will take care of my daughter.
- Of course. - Will you marry my daughter?
(Is he asking him to marry his daughter?)
(Then, it's okay.)
He has to get married to kiss?
You're talking to a kid who doesn't even have a job.
(Can't I do that?)
"Did you graduate high school?"
Why can't he get married?
- He's still in middle school. - He's a kid!
- Exactly! He's a kid. - He can't get married!
Samy, what would you do?
- First, I'll be shocked. - And then?
Then,
I'll have to talk to my daughter first. I'll need a conversation.
- Hyun-moo, be the daughter. - Dad?
Should I be the boyfriend?
Oh, so you're the boyfriend. (tc split) (Furious)
(Intimate)
- I'll separate them before we talk. - Okay, you did.
- Oh, Mister... - Say hello.
You stay quiet.
(He's on the dad's side and feeling relieved.)
- What are you doing? - Why did you...
do that with this jerk?
Why are you calling him a jerk?
When I...
ask you a question,
you answer.
I did answer.
Why did you do it?
- I really love him. - He's actually angry.
Do you think you can do that because you love him?
Yes. - Is that it? - You kiss mom too.
We're not dating. We're married.
- We'll get married too. - When?
We'll get married tomorrow!
(Is this the happy ending?)
I'm studying hard!
Focus on your studies!
You stay away from my daughter.
- Do you understand? - He's scary.
- And get out! - I study and...
- Get out! - But...
- I study... - I said get out!
(It backfired. Oh, whatever!)
(They do it anyway.)
- He's scary. - He was like the real dad.
If you do this, you'll ruin your relationship with your daughter.
Now, let's say Blair is the parent. This is his Australian daughter.
(Honey)
(Oh. Dad!)
You shouldn't do that in front of us,
but is everything going all right?
Come visit our house. I'll treat you to a great dinner.
- Tyler, how's it in America? - We got to go.
(American teenagers don't rush.)
(Cleaning up afterwards) Okay, you got in the car after that.
Who's that handsome guy?
- My boyfriend. - How long have you dated?
Maybe a year?
How could you not tell me when it's been an year?
I was so curious!
- That looks realistic. - I think it'll be like this.
(The American daughter act was good too.)
The kids don't want their parents finding out.
Because the parents take interest and try to hear it out.
- If you ask them, they would... - Because it's embarrassing?
- Because it's embarrassing. - This is how they react.
But, isn't that so nice?
"Why didn't you tell me? I was so curious."
"Who is he?" This is what you should ask first.
But, "Don't you meet him again!"
"You're never going to the reading room again."
"You're so grounded!"
That sounded like my dad from 20 years ago.
We have the same story today.
I think I was caught like that once.
- It brought back memories. - My friend...
was doing that at the reading room and some guy called him.
- "Who are you?" - "I'm her father."
(Your girlfriend's father is someone you automatically end up bowing to.)
- My, this is a difficult question.
But I want to ask her not to until she becomes an adult.
- I want to ask her not to. - She's your own daughter.
If she does keep herself, I'd give her something in return.
- A trip overseas? - Well...
It might not be something materialistic,
- but I'd thank her. - What did you say?
I said a parcel of beef.
(I waited for this day.)
(Mouth watering)
You've restrained yourself well
- You've restrained yourself well - You've restrained yourself well
Next person's ID is Park something.
I'm sending this using my mom's ID. I'm a third grader.
My friend who's from the same postpartum care center as me...
was always with me for my entire life.
But he said he doesn't want to be...
my best friend anymore. I want to be best friends with him again.
What should I do?
- I'm sending this with my mom's ID. - What should he do?
- I have an answer. - Okay.
In my opinion, he should be really friendly with another friend...
and make it show.
"Oh, you're my best friend." That'll make him jealous...
- and he'll return. - That sounds possible at this age.
I'd just get rid of him.
(Dumbstruck)
(Return to our old Blair)
- What does that mean? - No, I mean...
- Well, why? - I'd ask him if there's a reason.
If he just says, "I don't want to be".
- In that case, I'll just... - Let him go.
Why would you bother? Just find another friend.
There are lots of other friends.
- They were born in the same place. - Friends for life!
(Everyone is disagreeing with Blair.)
What Blair is saying is a very mature point of view.
This is a third grader. He's only 10 years old.
He doesn't understand that he can't keep a friend like this.
- What Julian says is right. - What should he do, Julian?
He should make other friends...
and make the friend jealous.
(Strong opposition) Zhang Yuan? (tc split)
What he just said is something I can't agree with at all.
- I can't agree. - Why?
Age 10 is when you start to learn about social life.
Saying it in words might be embarrassing,
but a letter would be nice.
- Asking why he's being like that. - I want to keep being friends.
Yes. If it doesn't work out,
"I tried, so even if I don't get an answer, I won't regret it."
- Like this, - That's nice.
- you can be a nice person. - What if you send it and...
But kids fight and reconcile all the time.
So, I think if just waits, they'll be friends again later.
- I think so too. - So you should make him jealous.
- Yuan... - Yes, make him jealous or...
- buy a new toy. - But...
But, it might be a big shock.
If this friend is the only close friend he has.
- That's true. - Shouldn't you ask him?
If it was my child,
"How did you feel when you heard that?"
"Then, why do you want to keep being friends with him?"
If the kid can answer all of these,
then you should help him.
But if he says, "Well, I'm not sure", then...
I would teach him to let go of that friend.
(Me too!)
Your child is going to be born soon.
As a dad-soon-to-be, if your son or daughter...
We can't control other people's actions.
But we know our own feelings.
So if I really like that friend,
I'd send letters and keep being nice to him.
Then things might work out.
I think it'd be nice to try all the way,
regardless of what other people say.
Let's hear from a parent whose child...
- goes to school. - Your child's in school?
That's right.
(Already?)
Well, this is something I think about a lot too.
It's best to listen to your child.
Doing what Tyler said is the best.
Instead of us making the decision for the child,
listening to the child's opinion...
would be the best.
Imagine Hyun-moo's your child.
- He's my child? - Yes.
My best friend Tyler says he won't be friends with me anymore.
Really? Why not?
He just said he doesn't like me because I'm ugly.
(He said he doesn't like me because I'm ugly.)
He's honest.
Why don't you try to fix your ugliness?
What kind of parent would say that?
(It looks like he'll stop being friends with his dad first.)
Well, he does try to have a conversation.
Well, there are guys here
who say you shouldn't meet someone who doesn't like you.
- I'm sorry.
- And there are guys who said you should express all your feelings.
I hope you take these advices in choosing what to do.
I hope it goes well. Good luck!
This person's ID is Kim something.
My friends think I don't like talking behind people's backs.
It's probably because I only do that behind their backs.
I can't sleep if I don't talk behind someone's back.
- Am I abnormal? - That's an odd topic.
- Julian sent that, right? - It's okay.
You'd make a phone call and say, "Hey, I need to sleep, but..."
"Se-yoon's such a jerk. Good night."
(Saying a bad thing about a person once a day.)
- Let's have a show of hands. - Here we go, for abnormal.
- Abnormal. In 1, 2, 3. - Raise your hand for abnormal.
- Is it abnormal? - It's completely normal.
We talk about our aunts, cousins, and grandmas...
during meal times when there's a problem.
"Gosh, my aunt did that." It relieves stress.
Don't you also talk straight up a lot too?
I talk directly, behind people's backs...
- You'd talk all over a person. - Right.
Behind a person, from the side...
- I also... - I need to. It's a bit...
like blowing your stuffy nose.
After that, I can organize my thoughts about that person.
So, I think it's a healthy thing to do.
You need to keep expressing it...
- to learn why that happened. - In my opinion...
In Nepal, we live in large families.
Right.
Because of that, as I live with 30 other people,
sometimes I talk behind them, sometimes straight up.
There are times when I can't sleep without saying certain things.
I think speaking directly is right, but behind the back isn't.
What does talking behind a person's back solve?
You talk behind people's back a lot too.
(The unexpected witness)
You talked behind people's back plenty of times with me.
- No, no. - He did it a lot.
- About what? - Blair, your ears turned red.
What he said doesn't match up.
What I'm saying is, if you want to solve a problem,
it's much better to talk directly. Saying,
"He's a jerk. He's good for nothing"...
- is like... - So, that's what you said.
(I got you.)
(Tell us. Who is it?)
I think talking behind the back like that isn't good.
How about the British gentleman?
I think it's become a serious habit for this person.
I think the person should think about what problems...
he or she has in life. The reason of the negative thoughts.
I think the person should find those out first.
He or she should find it and solve it.
I wish this person would think more optimistically.
But you have to consider the Korean culture.
To your superior or someone slightly older than you,
you often can't say things directly.
- That's right. - If it was in Poland,
people say things directly.
Of course, how to say things...
vary, but Korea has this certain culture.
What should we do in this situation? When we can't talk...
about our boss, shouldn't we do it behind the back?
Of course, if you do that...
you can relieve your stress, like what Julian said.
The person you're talking with might give you some good advices.
But, doing it to the degree...
where you can't even sleep...
- is problematic. - I thought he'd roll his eyes.
If you talk behind someone's back, do it productively.
Instead of "He's a jerk",
- "How should I do this?" - For solving problems.
- We're against just badmouthing. - There are people like that.
They always talk behind someone's back. They're very negative.
You don't want to meet such people.
They give off a negative atmosphere.
- They lose sleep from doing that. - Julian?
- So... - We're done with the topic.
- That's enough. - Okay Julian, stop.
Guilaume, have you talked behind people's backs before?
- I hate doing it and... - He hasn't.
- I hate listening to it. - Not at all?
- I think that's the best. - So, don't do it.
Nothing good comes of it.
- All right. - He spreads happiness.
Guilaume. You'll run away if I talk badly of Hyun-moo, right?
Like this.
I think Hyun-moo is a bit of an exception.
- Hyun-moo is... - Let's make fun of him together.
- Hyun-moo is okay. - He's a topic for gossips.
(Look forward to it!)
The ID of the sender is Eun something.
Whenever I try to study, random songs float around in my head.
Am I abnormal?
If you think it's abnormal, raise your hands.
In 1, 2, 3.
(15 normal versus 3 abnormal)
- Abnormal? - Why is that abnormal?
They all raised their hands with no confidence.
- That's because it's normal. - When you study...
and songs flood your mind,
you should just play the song you like and study.
Wouldn't that be better?
- Some people... - So that's normal.
- Why is that abnormal? - Where's the wrong part?
(Why are you doing this to me?)
You're thinking to complex.
If you keep thinking of songs every time,
you're simply making excuses for not wanting to study.
When listen to music,
it floats into your mind when you study.
- It just comes to mind. - It's not an excuse.
What we need to tell this person is that he or she is normal.
- It's not abnormal. - We're all like that.
This person can probably study really well.
That's right.
I think songs lingering in your mind is very natural.
Your brain waves become stable through...
repeated patterns.
- Then... - I listen to Indian mantras often.
It really helps.
It almost puts you in a trance.
(I'll listen to it.)
We call this the ear-bug.
It refers to music lingering in your ears.
I failed my university entrance exam once because of it.
I'm not sure. Was that really the reason?
I failed it twice and...
I missed four questions because of it.
- In English listening section. - Which song was it?
It says, "Listen and..." something, right?
Superman
- Superman - Hey
- Hey, Oh - Hey, Oh
Superman
floated in my mind.
I listened to the music in the morning.
I think it gets worse when you try not to hear it.
Hyun-moo, you didn't fail the test because of it.
You passed it because of the song.
- I see. - Thanks to the song...
Some time ago, we shot this show on Sunday...
and I had a meeting the following morning.
But Takuya's song kept ringing in my mind.
- Amazing - Amazing
It was really difficult. I kept visualizing his dance too.
(This is "Amazing".) Did the meeting go well? (tc split)
I ruined it.
What do you mean you ruined it?
- That time... - Thanks to you.
As you heard from all of them, songs lingering in your mind...
- is normal, right? - It's normal.
How you make use of that, is up to you.
- We're solving problems well. - Yes.
(Non Summit Problem Solvers)
The ID of the sender is Lin something.
I love a friend who's in a committed relationship.
Is this abnormal?
- Ouch. - We'll vote by show of hands.
Is it abnormal for me to love a friend who is in a relationship.
In 1, 2, 3. Raise your hand.
- Robin thinks it's abnormal. Samy? - Why?
- The rest of you... - It's normal.
(We vote normal, of course.)
- I... - Of course, it's normal.
(Why?)
I think you all lack loyalty.
If my friend has a girlfriend,
I think of her as a holy person.
I don't even look at her.
- It's a stranger. - It's someone you don't know.
- It can't be helped. - A stranger...
Wasn't being friends the problem?
- No, no. - No.
This person loves someone who has a lover.
Is it okay as long as that's not a friend of yours?
Yes.
(Welcome, friend.)
I think you can look at it this way.
This is someone I love,
but the only problem she has...
- is that she has a boyfriend. - Ah-in?
- Ah-in. - Yoo Ah-in?
She has a boyfriend, in fact.
So, you can end up loving her...
and it doesn't matter whether or not she has a boyfriend.
But I think that's scary. If I have a girlfriend and introduce her...
(Beware of Yuan)
You can't control your feelings.
I you suddenly fall in love, I think you need to stop it.
This is not right.
This is what Blair is saying.
What you do afterwards is important.
Falling in love itself isn't important.
That's normal.
- It's about how you act afterwards. - That's right.
Even if you're friends,
I think love is something you can't stop.
(Love doesn't have a break pedal.)
- Amazing - Amazing
I should never introduce him to women.
Love is by instinct. Of course,
my friend's boyfriend might get upset.
But I ended up loving her. What can I do?
There's a question I want to ask Takuya.
- What if you love her... - Bring it on!
You think that's normal. How will you deal with it?
I mean, let's say Yuan loves your girlfriend.
If it's Yuan,
I will talk to him first, in person.
I really love my girlfriend.
But...
I don't know how it will work out, but...
- "I love her too." - Isn't that too soft?
Don't you normally hit the guy?
(The nicest guy in the world.) - Talk about what?
- Right, you're too nice.
Let's say it's Hyun-moo.
- Hyun-moo? - Wouldn't he get hurt?
- It's me. - His girlfriend's weird.
(Here comes Hyun-moo.)
You should never go that way.
You'll ruin your life!
(That's it!)
I have a personal example.
A woman I loved so much...
had a boyfriend. But she wasn't happy with him.
So, I made a move.
I stole her away from him.
- Good job. - This isn't right.
- We dated for two years. - How did you break up?
We just broke up.
- You were punished for that, right? - No.
I...
- No. - I stole her away.
Was it you?
("Love and War" between friends)
There's an Italian expression that matches this topic.
- What is it?
For example, I love a woman.
I'd go talk to her.
I like you, could you tell me your number?
If the woman says, "I have a boyfriend",
I say, that's okay. I don't get jealous.
(Approved cheating)
(Italian men are at a whole different level.)
If I'm the one in love, it's really nice.
You'd send her messages saying that you miss her.
But if you're on the suffering side,
it's seriously...
The woman should act well.
- Right. - It's up to the woman.
If she really loves me,
- even if some other guys calls her, - That's right.
"Hey, don't do it. I have a boyfriend." She can say that.
But if she falters,
- then it's probably over. - It's over.
Knowing that someone else is attracted to my girlfriend...
can be helpful for me, too.
You need a competitor to work harder.
(After a storm comes a calm)
(That might be right.)
You date because you love each other.
I'm not sure if you really need a competitor.
Some people don't find their girlfriend attractive without one.
Are we shooting five episodes today?
(Episode 100 never ends.)
The problem is, everybody in Korea is dating.
My non-Korean friends always get surprised that...
everyone is in a relationship.
Lots of things revolve around couples.
People feel like they always have to be with someone.
I think that's why Korea is like this.
- Really? Is it different abroad? - It's less so.
There are so many couples here.
- Korea is? - Right.
People think it's bad to be alone.
If you're single, people worry about you.
- They set you up for dates. - The society...
People greet you by asking, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
People always ask that. People in my country...
- don't do that. - Right.
That's a new perspective. I think it's true.
Koreans think being single is problematic.
You're right. What's so bad about being single?
- Exactly, what's wrong with that? - What about it?
(Non Summit Meeting root for all single men and women in the world.)
Should we read the next one?
The ID is Alice something.
People say I sleep too much, but I need to sleep at least 10 hours.
I sleep 10 hours a day. Am I abnormal?
10 hours? That's...
- Isn't that normal? - Let's raise hands.
People who think it's abnormal. In 1, 2, 3.
- It's abnormal. - Why?
- Sleeping brings more sleep. - No.
Sleeping long makes you tired and sleepy again.
- Sleeping is a good thing. - How long do you sleep, Samy?
- Five hours, at most. - Eight hours?
- Why? - That's bad for your health.
- I think that's bad for health. - Are you a monk?
What do you sleep so little?
I go home at 2am...
- and wake up at 7am. - But, really.
- It depends on the person. - Everyone is different.
So, Samy is fine with five hours of sleep.
But, Guilaume or...
people like him...
Younger people need to sleep longer. 10 hours on average.
Albert Einstein,
-on average... -See?
(Always starts with a mention of a famous person)
- What about him? - He slept 14 hours on average.
But, he still made the theory of parallel universes.
Sleeping longer when you're tired is okay,
but sleeping 10 hours every day is a waste of time.
Let's say you sleep eight hours every day,
and calculate how many hours that adds up to during your entire life.
(Cringing)
(Then, don't sleep!)
Aren't you being too calculating?
What's shameful is that...
Just because someone sleeps long,
considering it to be inefficient and wasteful is too...
- That's not funny at all. - Just because a person sleeps long,
so what? He or she might sleep long...
and still live well.
- Yes, sleeping for six hours and... - He really hates that.
- I really hate it. - "Do you know how many hours..."
"that adds up to?"
- Where did you hear that from? - I hate that.
(Laughing like a fool)
(It looks like he's drunk. He failed to rebut.)
I think he's drunk.
I think Guilaume since he has slept more than ten hours...
...should be the one to give the last words.
What do think of this topic?
I am the happiest when I sleep ten hours.
I believe sleeping 10 hours is totally normal.
(sleeping ten hours is normal)
Now, I would like to invite a special guest.
He is like a family to us.
He has sent us a video with a topic for discussion.
Let's see who this person is.
It's Mr. Chin Jung-kwon.
When we listen to the debates here at the Non Summit,
maybe it's because they speak Korean so fluently,
but the delegates all seem very Koreanized.
As a result,the summit has failed to cover some issues...
For example, when I first went to study in Germany.
The culture was very foreign to me...
and I was in awe of the rationality of the society.
but at times felt the society was too cold.
I felt certain things were negative.
I believe the delegates may feel the same.
Some things in Korea may look great,
but at the same time, others may be negative.
But, the delegates only talked about the good things.
I would like the delegates to discuss...
what they feel needs to be changed in our society,
criticize and discuss them together.
I am also very interested in their opinions.
(Discuss topics that were not discussed openly)
Let's talk about Korea more frankly.
Koreans don't talk like adults even though he become of age.
People in their early twenties are still referred to as babies.
Treating them like children.
A fifteen year old can be very mature as well.
Ignoring them during conversations.
-You mean that they are talked down to.
Ignoring them and constantly preaching.
-I've experienced it. (Right,right,right)
I don't like that.
Being older does mean your always right.
Being young doesn't mean your always wrong too.
But in Korea, people feel they need to...
impress people older than them.
They don't focus in their own dreams,
but try to please the other person.
There are many types of successes,
but because they are busy doing what is expected of them.
They may become unhappy.
In my opinion,
success is happiness.
-We don't need to force ourselves to be what society wants us to be.
I would to talk about manners.
For example,
When waiting for the subway,
the door opens...
we should wait for the people to get out,
before we get on.
There is so much disorder,
-it is the same with elevators here. -I agree
People need to yield to each other.
I think this is lacking here.
In driving as well...
there is no consideration for others.
it exists in some areas, but...
in general, there is no consideration for others.
it was very shocking.
- but if you greet them, it changes SUDDENLY.
You are strangers first...
once you say hello, they become a different person.
They swear while driving, but change when you greet them.
It seems like they are in their own space.
I think Koreans don't criticize very well.
When I watch something on the news.
I always check whether it's true or not.
But I find Koreans are very accepting of such things.
Sometimes...
I see friends that enjoy listening to music.
And if I ask why they like it. They just say it's because it's popular.
Rather than having their own uniqueness.
They follow what is popular.
They follow the mainstream.
Rather than make their choices or decisions.
In Korea, the most popular word on TV is "mainstream."
If feels like you are behind if you don't follow the mainstream.
People are busy trying to fit in together.
(Giggling)
If I say that I ate alone.
People look at me surprised. (People worry when you eat alone)
-Why not eat alone? (Right, right, right)
I can eat alone if I want to.
But people worry and tell me to invite them next time.
They look at me a little strangely.
In Japan, it is quite common, so their worries make me uncomfortable.
-If I say I went to watch a movie alone.
-The first thing people say is "Why?" -"Why?"
("Why?" is the first thing they ask)
-NOT what did you see or was is fun?
I think the introduction of the speaker at a wedding is too long.
(Laughing out loud)
The introduction focuses too much on the speaker's achievements.
What titles the person possesses.
What does all those titles have to do...
with giving a speech at a wedding.
I went to this wedding once...
and a congressman showed up.
He talked ten minutes about divorce rates in Korea.
(Laughs loudly)
-At someone's wedding? -My gosh!
Eliminate the promotion of speakers at weddings.
And focus on the bride and groom.
-We MC many weddings. -I sing at many.
There are speakers who come with their own self introductions.
-With instructions on how to read them. -Their career history.
-What titles they possess.
-Their affiliated organizations.
-But is currently unemployed.
(But is currently unemployed.)
Looking at Korean weddings in your perspective sounds fun.
What I don't understand about Korea is...
the issue with mother-in-laws.
(Surprised)
How would you know?
-It is a serious problem.
-I know some friends... -You mean troubles between in-laws?
-that are married, but overly stressed.
(Lost for words)
-I wish they'd stop giving them a hard time.
-It's not all mother-in-laws.
Once you are married you are a part of two families.
Marriage is between two people.
If a third party interferes,
there will of course be problems.
It is not easy for the daughter-in-laws.
I wish the mothers would be more understanding.
Do you think your mother will be like that?
My mother will not interfere. (Never)
-They all say that at first. -That's right.
(At first they all say that)
Aside from Korea.
Holidays are happiest days around the world.
(True, true)
But in Korea, I haven't met a person that liked holidays.
-True (That's correct)
Who are the holidays for?
-For both men and women. -It's not for those who have passed away.
It for all of us...
but if no one enjoys it, something is wrong.
I don't know how to change it,
but it need to change. (It need to change)
-Hope you change it. (To happier holidays)
I would like to talk about work.
There are worker's rights like taking vacation.
I wish these rights could be protected.
If it states 20 days vacation days on the contract,
there should be no problem going a week or two on vacation.
But in Korea, it is impossible to take long vacations.
Even though you have vacation days?
(You have to be careful of what others think)
On paper, there are actually more vacation days than other countries.
-But you can't take it.
This has been mentioned a few times.
Pressures from upper management...
...unfairness at work.
What to do when you are being ignored because you are young.
When you are faced with such unfairness...
To think that you just accept it because you are a subordinate..
...it hurts and I keep thinking that such things should not be happening.
The Confucian doctrines state that there must be order between the old and young.
-Haven't heard of it more than 20 years -But the doctrine...
is a Confucian concept.
When it talks about order...
...it does not mean that the older are always right.
Or that the young are always wrong.
It's not that the older are always right and that the young should always listen.
It simply states that there exists an order.
It does not say that whatever comes from those above us should be blindly followed.
If you feel like you are being mistreated..
...you should politely express that you disapprove.
Don't confuse Confucianism and authoritarianism.
I think that for South Asians from underdeveloped countries like Nepal.
-Experience severe discrimination. -Still?
It started when I was in school.
It was tough...
...having to endure such discrimination.
Do have a bad memory you'd like to share?
I worked part-time for a meat restaurant.
I had to place some sesame oil sauce on the table...
...but I forgot to place in on the table.
This older man looked at me.
He wasn't drunk, but suddenly he said.
"Doesn't this place have any salt!"
when I apologized...
He said "You smell"
-Eh -He just went ahead and said it.
That was pretty rough.
But I took it as a student learning a new culture.
And I apologized to the man.
I've seen employers being verbally abusive.
Physically abusive because the employees don't understand the language.
I think they are severe acts of discrimination.
-It is getting better, but not enough . -Yes, not enough.
But it is getting better.
-I see.
As these opinions are from delegates that have love for Korea.
I believe our viewers will share your feelings.
They were problems that we may have not been able to see ourselves.
It was very valuable.
Today was a very special day.
All our delegates from past and present are here.
Can you share your most meaningful moment with us.
I cried once on this program.
It was when Hong Seok-cheon was the guest.
The topic was about marriage.
All of you here can dream of marriage.
But one day I realized...
I can never dream of marriage.
It gave me great despair.
When I started to believe I could dream...
again slightly...
I thought about...marriage.
I've had a prejudice against same-sex marriages.
It all disappeared that day.
It made me realize that I should see the different sides of the world.
I still believe Hong Seok-cheon is an amazing person.
And I learned so much from him.
I went through a rough time when the earthquake hit Nepal.
I received not only financial support,
but warm text messages and phone calls.
They all meant so much to me.
It was not easy for me to even be here.
I didn't know what to do the whole week.
But you all took care of me like family.
That was a very special moment for me.
It was the same for us.
If we had watched it over the news, a foreign country we weren't familiar with.
We would have treated it like another sad news in the world.
But Nepal felt so close like family and we were so saddened.
Also, the terrorist attack in Belgium.
We couldn't stop worrying.
They all reached out to me.
- It happened right before the show. - Right, I remember.
-I remember you walking out trying to reach your family.
We are a big family now.
I appreciate everything and I am thankful. Thank you.
Now to our other guest...
-James (Me!...No?)
(Thought he was calling me.)
(Feeling sorry his name got called.)
-Idol star -I thought you were ignoring me.
When I appeared on this show.
The topic was "Father"
When was the last time you talked to your father?
I've never talked to my father.
-How is that possible. -Since you've been in Korea?
I didn't...
like...
my father.
He often fought with my mother.
But your dad is probably...
waiting to hear from you.
You need to reach out to him.
I'm not sure.
After that show...
I mind started changing.
Now when I go to Japan.
I talk to my father now.
-Now you do?
We even text each other.
-Wow. -I am very grateful.
That particular show meant a lot to me.
It was a personal moment for me.
I think this show...
has changed all of our lives.
I will always be thankful to all of you.
To be able to meet all my new friends here.
I've said it before...
It's been 100 episodes, but we still...
keep in touch.
Thank you.
(The Non Summit Meeting has brought us closer together)
Jun Hyun-moo please remember to reply to your texts.
Yes, yes.
We will try our best.
-Say a few words too. -Yes.
-You've all be great today.
Our producers...
our writers
our directors and camera crew
Lighting and sound crew.
Are you receiving an award?
This gavel belongs to all of you.
(Giggles) (What is that?)
(The embarrassment is ours to share) -Okay.
-I would now like to adjourn our Non Summit Meeting.
Until the day we all become normal.
You seem normal, yet abnormal, but normal.
This is Rubenho.
Singapore is famous for being strict.
If you drive drunk...
You will be fined 4.1million Korean won with a six month sentence in prison.
-Seriously? -Wow.
If you do it frequently...
Your face will be on the front page of the newspaper.
-You almost made it to the front page.
-I already did.
(Surprising facts about Singapore)
HOT Tony and Sechskies Jae-duk
I don't feel happy when I am happy.
Am I abnormal?
You must find happiness in your everyday life.
When I traveled with Tony...
that was when I was the happiest.
When you set your goals...
and work towards it.
My way of finding happiness...
to talk and laugh with Tony.
(What is that?)
The lights are going to come on now.
(That's abnormal!)
-What will you do?
I learned a lot of new things today.
(And the global delegates final words...!)
My biggest present...
was to be able to meet new friends.
I learned a lot about Korea.
The last two years...
was the most exciting time.
Experience something special.
I am truly grateful.
-You seem normal, yet abnormal, but normal! -You seem normal, yet abnormal, but normal!
(Every Monday 10:50pm Non Summit Meeting)
