We shall begin the emergency Non Summit Meeting.
(Beginning emergency Non Summit Meeting)
Just three days ago, there was a terrorist attack using a truck in Nice, France.
More than 84 people were killed and 200 people were injured.
Following the terrorist attack in Paris in November of last year,
this terrorist attack plunged France and the rest of the world into sorrow.
There was also a suicide terrorist attack in the Istanbul airport in Turkey.
More than 45 people were killed in the attack.
There were more than 200 people injured.
Then after a week, another terrorist attack hit Bangladesh.
There was also an attack...
in the financial square of Baghdad, Iraq, which killed 300 people.
ISIS started targeting innocent civilians in a so-called Soft-Target Terrorism.
The whole world is now on high alert.
It has also been observed that the terrorist attacks are spreading into Asia.
Korea is no longer safe either.
So, we would like to hear the opinions of the non-summit representatives...
regarding the ISIS terrorist attacks that are terrorizing the world.
That's why we called for an emergency meeting.
Let's find out about the damages each country suffered from ISIS terrorist attacks.
Last year, in France,
a theater and a restaurant was simultaneously attacked.
It was an incident in which more than 130 people were killed.
- It was a shocking incident. - Yes, it was shocking.
My French friend living in Korea was shocked, too.
We all saw the video clips.
- The flags on the Facebook profiles. - Oh, a lot of people put up the French flag.
- "Pray for Paris." - Yes.
And last week in Nice, on Bastille Day,
a Truck ran over the people who were enjoying the celebrations.
Children were killed.
Following the terrorist attack last year, the French people are grieving again.
We suffered a lot, too.
A few weeks ago, 50 people were killed in a club in Orlando.
Before that, in California,
a terrorist attack in San Bernardino killed 14 people.
So we were attacked a few times recently, too.
To add to that, in that club in Orlando,
people were having an event called Latino Night.
- Yes, that's right. - So, 90% of the people in the club were Hispanic.
- Mexicans. - Yes, Hispanic people.
The Mexican people were grief stricken, too.
There were no terrorist attacks inside Italy.
People weren't very nervous about them.
But a few weeks back in Dhaka...
- In Bangladesh? - Yes, in Bangladesh.
From the 20 people killed, 9 were Italians.
- Oh, really? - So, in a way, we were attacked for the first time.
So, people started feeling anxious.
It became a big issue.
There were German victims in Turkey too, right? In the airport attack.
Yes, that's right.
(No place in the world is safe.)
It seemed like someone else's problem,
but it definitely appears to be moving closer to us.
You are living in Korea, but what do you think of the ISIS terrorist attacks?
- They use the abbreviation for Islamic State as their name. - Yes.
They claim that they are the protectors of Islam.
But during the recent Ramadan,
they attacked Turkey, Bangladesh, and Iraq.
There were terrorist attacks in these Islamic countries.
I also think religion is simply a justification for them.
- They need a justification to make people follow you, - Yes.
so they're using religion to justify themselves.
I'm a Muslim myself.
I think it's wrong to call them an Islamic State in the first place.
- We shouldn't call them that. - Right.
Because the news keep calling them a Islamic State,
so ordinary people receive the blame...
in places like the UK and the US.
So, the Secretary-General of the UN...
used the name, Un-Islamic Non-State.
So, what would you like us to call ISIS by?
Their original name in Arabic is Daesh.
- It's Daesh, so we can just use the Arabic name. - Daesh?
I think it would be more convenient that way.
- ISIS is the richest terrorist group. - Yes.
They earn lots of money through international prostitution.
They earn money from selling oil.
And they make propaganda videos to collect donations from around the world.
So I think we should just stop them.
If they manage to maintain their organization for a long time...
and make nuclear bombs, the situation will become much more serious.
- We should stop them. - That would be horrific.
Like Guillaume said, ISIS recently...
spread their messages through social media.
Actually, in the case of Orlando, California,
the terrorists didn't plan this with ISIS.
These Americans attacked the club,
and claimed that they are doing this for ISIS.
So we need to stop this propaganda.
- You know, it's their plan. - That's right.
For the most part, the people who join the ISIS...
are young people.
People who were discriminated within their own cultures...
and want revenge,
and they do this through ISIS. That's why they do it.
My opinion is similar to Lucky's too.
The terrorists that targeted Dhaka intentionally...
went to an area where there are foreigners.
They went to the luxurious hotel next to the embassy.
They asked people if they knew the Quran and killed the people who answered no.
The reason why they killed foreigners was to...
receive people's attention from around the world.
- Right. - To draw attention and to put fear into people's mind.
- To put fear in them. - That's their goal.
Because there was a saying that terrorists let those who can recite the Quran live,
I heard there are videos to help memorize the Quran, these days.
What do you think about this? Do you think it'll make people less worried?
Do you think it would actually be practical? Memorizing this?
If you live feeling that...
you have to memorize the Quran out of fear of death,
- I think it's turned out the way the terrorists want. - Right.
And they'll think that they have won.
So, I won't memorize it.
If videos like these, keep spreading,
- it will only make people more scared. - Right.
It will just create more fear. Even if you memorize it,
you can't be 100 percent sure that you would be able to survive.
In this incident, one student recited the entire Quran.
But he refused to abandon his friends.
In the end, he was killed.
This had nothing to do with the Quran.
These people are atrocious...
and they say that they won't kill you if you recite the Quran.
Then, without realizing it, you already have Islamophobia.
- Islam becomes... - An object of fear.
- It turns to something strange. - That's their goal.
The largest number of people that were killed by ISIS are Muslims.
They all know the Quran.
Even if they know it... It's just a method.
- Sometimes they demand to see your ID cards. - Yes?
Then they kill you if they don't like you.
- So, it's just a method. - There's no reasoning.
If you give in to their demand,
things like this will continue. How far will you give in?
- We can't do that. - We brought this up,
- but it's a difficult problem. - Yes.
Italy and France declared war against ISIS.
But, should a country deploy troops to purge ISIS?
Or do you think that would lead to bigger problems?
If you think troop deployment is necessary, raise your hands.
(Countries should deploy troops to purge ISIS.)
Five people think it's necessary.
Italy just kept supporting the US
It never actually got involved directly.
- But nine people got killed this time. - Right.
Then the government should show some actions,
- so that people won't be worried. - People can understand.
If the countries that were attacked...
act like, "Oh, we are catching these people."
"We are blocking them from social media." If that's all they do,
- The actions... - the people become worried.
- I think it'll be more problematic. - Of course, I...
The reason why I support non-violence is because...
- India won its independence through non-violence. - The descendent of Gandhi.
- When an Indian guy says that... - The power of non-violence...
shouldn't be underestimated.
I feel sad for the Italian people who were killed, of course.
But revenge...
will kill innocent children in Iraq and Syria again.
Then, will those people have to go to Italy to get their revenge?
- So, we can't just go and attack blindly. - That won't do.
We need to stop their funding or something. That is obviously right.
But should we have stood by and watched during World War II?
How... So, you can look at it this way too.
Should we do nothing or take action? I think we need to take action.
The thing is, ISIS...
isn't located in a specific area.
- We don't know where they are. - We don't.
Just sending troops...
- won't be very effective. - It'd be ineffective.
Yes, that's right. ISIS isn't located in a particular place.
They are all over the place. But still, just as their name indicates,
- they're in "Iraq and Syria". - Their leaders...
So, I think we should send troops.
Because if the situation in Syria continues,
it will become impossible to resolve. We should solve that problem first.
Only then, can we take care of ISIS too.
But, let's say we sent the troops.
- Train... - Their soldiers are hidden amongst civilians.
They're hidden. So even if we find them,
civilian casualties will be high too.
The soldiers looking for ISIS will have high casualties too.
- The civilians are suffering even now. - Right.
So, I think...
If we are to carry out military operations,
we need to end it after we help them to start anew.
If we just leave after getting rid of the terrorists,
- problems will continue to rise. - The country will be thrown into turmoil.
- We... - In terms of actions,
I do think we should send troops.
But, we have to send troops through a resolution...
- through the UN Security Council. - For example...
- Give me a second. It's because... - Okay.
I think people will consider it as...
an imperialist invasion like in Iraq or Afghanistan.
- An imperialist war. - Oh, imperialism.
The US and other western countries created problems in the Middle East.
That's why an organization like ISIS was founded.
So, I think the U.S. and other western countries have a responsibility over this.
- France... - As I see it,
that seems to be the situation from 10 years ago.
- No, really. You're talking about Al-Qaeda. - The Iraq War.
In fact, after September 11th...
the US invaded Iraq based on false information...
and other countries followed them, too.
But what's scarier now is that, I think ISIS lacks reasoning.
These people fight with other Muslim people...
and also fight in other Muslim countries as well.
Right now, this is a different group and they have different motivations.
Think more carefully about this because...
ISIS, spelled with the letters I, S, I, and S and pronounced ISIS.
- It's Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. - It's Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.
When there was just Iraq, there was a sort of balance.
- After America entered the country, however... - Then what about Syria?
Syria is a complicated matter.
- What if... - Because for Syria had a civil war.
You see, ISIS...
wasn't created after the Iraq war.
- It was created in 1999. - That's right.
It had a different name back then but during that time...
it grew bigger and that's why the current name was created.
- It bloomed like a flower. - Yes, it bloomed like a flower.
It couldn't have bloomed like a flower if it wasn't in a place like Iraq.
America's crime started from here.
The leader of ISIS is Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, right?
Because Iraq didn't have a government, as Guillaume previously mentioned...
the amount of money they make per day through selling things like oil...
ranges from 3 million to 4 million dollars.
Because of the financial benefits involved,
the issue keeps spreading and generates problems they mentioned.
Out of various French sayings, there's one that goes like this.
It's "Qui seme Le vent recolte la tempete."
- What does it mean? - "The person who caused the wind..."
"will be the one who is hit with the storm." That's what it means.
It means "His bad luck is all of his own doing."
I see, "His bad luck is all of his own doing."
Aurélien, I agree with you up to a certain point.
Is the fact that the group's power grew this much, however,
really 100 percent America or Western countries' faults?
Aren't there other reasons?
Mark, what do you think is the reason ISIS was able to grow like this?
- What is it? - I'll say what you said in a different way.
For example, there are many Islamic immigrants in France.
And in schools, wearing hijabs...
was made illegal in France.
That is one of the reasons.
It's because they can't find a job...
and at times it's because of other societal issues within France.
And so I believe this is a sort of both a political and religious problem.
Yes, those are my thoughts as well.
French society is unfair.
But that is not America's fault.
US does need to take a little bit of the blame for this problem.
(U.S. needs to take a little bit of blame for this problem.)
- It's because the US... - We keep...
saying ISIS was created because of the US,
or because of religion. I wish we would not think of it like that.
The background to these issues are...
Right now, when you look at what's going on in Bangladesh...
the protesters were in fact students from good families.
Because they received prejudice and hate...
in their own society,
they naturally wanted to take revenge.
That's why they all went on the internet...
and got involved with ISIS. That's what's happening.
To explain this issue as simply the fault of just one country...
or one religion...
would mean we are looking at this from a tiny lens.
Now please tell us what efforts are being made regarding this issue.
There must be a lot of effort to stop events like ISIS terrorism, right?
Switzerland is a globally very important country in terms of finances.
It's making efforts to stop terrorist from money laundering.
People who want to make a bank account in Switzerland...
are now much more thoroughly checked when they want to pay money to make it.
In France, after the terrorism attack...
they held the UEFA Euro 2016.
France declared a state of emergency for the country until the end of July.
Due to recent tragic event, state of emergency was extended by three more months.
President Hollande said France's will to fight against terrorism...
cannot be bent.
An anti-terrorism law was also passed in May.
Because of that, even after they get off work, policemen...
- can still carry their guns with them. - They allow them to carry them around?
Previously, after 9pm in France...
police could not search houses.
- Now they can search houses whenever they want. - Anytime, I see.
Of course, personal freedom of citizens does get limited a little.
In the US, now...
the citizens are quite used to security checks.
Besides that, the U.S's majority of activities
are being operated abroad rather than domestic, right?
Through the use of drones,
they check how many ISIS members were killed.
President Obama revealed it to the public for the first time ever.
This is probably the biggest part...
of America's activities to resist ISIS.
I'm sorry but...
I bet there are many problems that may occur due to drone attacks.
I say that because drones cannot tell who is an ISIS member...
or who isn't. It could kill ordinary civilians.
- I admit that. Drone attacks are not a perfect method. - They die. Yes, right.
In particular, The leader of ISIS...
was targeted.
Among the 50 members at the embassy...
some people wrote a letter.
The letter says America should have more actively used military forces in Syria.
They said they should have resisted Syria more forcefully.
ISIS grew and it's much bigger now.
Because of that, I believe Syria should have been fought against more vigorously.
For India, whether you go to a department store or a hotel...
they inspect your body and bag. They inspect everything.
They even inspect your car's trunk.
When I arrive in India...
and turn on my Korean cellphone, the very first text message I receive...
says, "You arrived in a dangerous country!"
When I turn on my Indian cell phone it says, "Welcome!"
When I turn on my Korean cellphone it's "You arrived in a dangerous country!"
(To which rhythm should he dance to?)
Inevitably,
terrorism is very serious in India as well.
There is a special military group.
It's called ATS, which stands for Anti Terrorist Squad.
It is a team that was created after the hotel terror attacks in 2008.
Although this may be hard to believe,
Great Britain plays for ISIS terrorists...
Bollywood music because ISIS terrorist feel tormented by it.
- Really? You're not joking? - Yes.
- It's not a joke. - I didn't know this either.
- This is real? - Why? Why is it tormenting?
(UK troops use Bollywood music as a new psychological warfare weapon against ISIS.)
IS members seem to absolutely hate India's Bollywood songs.
- Oh, really? - Rather than memorizing the Quran...
I think it'd be better to memorize Bollywood songs.
- We should even learn the dance, right? - It's not bad!
I was honestly thinking the same thing.
- That's dangerous. - I'm going to play Indian music if one of them comes up to me.
So is it that Muslims do not like it?
No, it's not that Muslims hate Bollywood music.
- It's just ISIS? - It's because they are people who are way too serious.
There are so many Muslims in India, more than there are in US and England.
There are also many Muslims in Pakistan.
They hate it even more if there are people who like liberty in these countries.
They think, "Culture is like that in those countries..."
"but people here are Muslims so why are they acting like that?"
Terrorists just hate everything like liberty and joy, right?
- So they just hate it when people are happy... - They must hate that.
and Bollywood is full of joy.
Don't they also play at Imjingak...
K-Pop music as well?
- They play it a lot. - Yes, they play it a lot.
The song they play the most is "Bang Bang Bang" by Big Bang. Bang bang bang!
Wow, the person who decided on that song is insane.
Everyone, freeze!
(The next line is, "Everyone freeze!".)
- It's real. - No, it's different from that case.
- What's scary for Korea... - Yes?
is that they designated a Korean citizen. Was it a female citizen?
They once designated a person as a target for terrorism.
Currently, the American air force bases at Gunsan city and Ulsan city...
are targets of ISIS. There was news about that.
- What do we do? - What do you think Korea should do?
There's the saying, "Precaution is better than cure."
At places where there will be a crowd...
have a bag and body inspection. That will make it a little safer.
The reason why I say that is because in India, many people go to movie theaters.
When they go to a theater, the first thing they do is check underneath their seats.
It's to check if there's any strange item below.
- How do they live in such a way? - When I go to a movie theater in Korea,
I first check under my seat because it became a habit.
It's just left over popcorn, right?
There's popcorn and cola.
To solve the issue of terrorism,
citizens must also take on some kind of responsibility.
In European countries like Italy and France,
people think because our ancestors died and made sacrifices...
so that we can live freely without inspections.
Do I have to get inspected now when all that happened?
Do I need to show you what's in my bag when I just want to watch a movie?
- I think my ancestors would be very sad. - It's like that in India.
This is what I mean. Everyone thinks...
this is the easiest prevention method. We're actually losing to terrorism.
Alberto's thoughts are correct,
but Indians also disliked the practice at first.
They asked, "Why are you touching my body and opening my bag?"
If you look at the big picture,
it's to ensure the safety of our nation's people.
I think of this as defeat.
- I mean against ISIS. - Isn't this just a way to prepare and prevent it?
That's only a short-term prevention.
- Against mindset of fear... - During UEFA Euro 2016,
For a short time, everyone was inspected to prevent a crises.
If we say, "We have a solution for ISIS terrorism."
"Let's inspect everyone."
How long will that go on for?
This doesn't solve the actual fundamental issue.
India has a population of 1.2 billion people.
If there can be inspections in this population,
You can do it in a country with only tens of millions of people.
If you do this after a terrorism event happens,
trying to fix it would be a tragedy.
I bet the viewers understand what Alberto means...
and also what's in Lucky's heart.
I bet the viewers understood both sides to this.
We also think they are both correct.
I bet each country's Ministry of National Defense is discussing this just like us.
"That's not right!"
"I saw this on Non Summit Meeting and they said it's not right."
When would they have time to watch Non Summit Meeting?
Of course they could! We could be references to them.
- Do you genuinely think that? - You're referring to us, right?
(Non Summit Meeting cheers on Se-yoon's fruitless dream.)
Anyways, this is a big concern.
The problem with IS terrorism is globally spreading.
It's a problem the whole world needs to think about.
I wish we'll find a solution.
I hope no more innocent lives are taken by terrorism.
This was the segment we begin in a hurry every time there's an issue
- and end in a hurry. This was "Emergency Non Summit Meeting" - Pardon?
This was "Emergency Non Summit Meeting".
We will hurriedly adjourn.
(Non Summit Meeting, a border-less association of young men and women)
There are two empty seats. Has it been two years?
It's the first time.
- It's great. - Our long-awaited wish is coming true.
At last, there will be female representatives starting today.
(They are really full of anticipation.)
After a whole year our group is no longer only males.
The first representative who will answer your excitement...
- Wait! - Why are you like this?
Why are you standing up?
She already came out.
- What is this? - When did you get here?
(The hosts are flustered by this new concept.)
I'm so shocked!
Is that why you stood up?
She's the Polish representative, everyone!
(Polish guest representative, Adela Borowiak)
Are Polish people always in a hurry?
We clapped too loudly.
It was... I was so surprised.
- It... - Please introduce yourself.
(Hello, I'm Adela Borowiak.)
(I'm from Poland, Marie Curie's country.)
(I'm very proud and glad to be the first female representative here.)
She's not rapping, right?
- You are breathing, right? - Oh, yes.
I'm Adela Borowiak from Poland.
I liked to travel since I was a child.
I came all the way to Korea because I found Asia very attractive.
Since I was 12, I've been to Beijing, also India, Thailand...
I've been to a total of over 40 countries.
- Over 40 countries? - Yes.
Wow, amazing.
And I heard...
- How many languages do you speak? - Right, I speak six languages.
- Wow. - I had a lot of interest in them since I was young.
I can speak French, Spanish, English, Chinese, Korean, and Polish.
All right, Aurélien. Say some greetings in French.
(Hello, how are you?)
(Yes, I'm well. And you?)
(I haven't spoken in French for a while.)
(So it's a bit difficult now.)
(Where did you learn it?)
(In Poland, back in high school)
(You're pronunciation is good.)
(Thank you.)
I only understood the "You're pronunciation is good" part.
- She's fluent. - How good is she?
- Better than intermediate. - He's very objective.
You could've just said she's good.
- French, and then... - Spanish!
(Why do you like Korea?)
(It's because...)
(I like Korean food so much.)
(I think Korean food is the best.)
- What did she say? - I asked her what she likes the most about Korea,
and she answered that she especially likes the food.
(She has amazing linguistic skills.)
- She's amazing. - Her pronunciation is really clear.
- Was she good? - Yes.
Thank you so much for the compliment. I felt nervous, I hadn't spoken it in a while.
Hyun-moo, try Chinese.
(Hello.)
(Why did you come to Korea?)
(I really like eating Korean food.)
(Korea food? Like what?)
(For example,)
(Baby octopus.)
- Korean food... - So, she likes baby octopus too!
But, Poland and Germany are neighbors.
- Is it because of the history? Or were you not interested in German? - German.
- No, it's not like that at all. Since Poland is near Germany, - Okay.
many of my friends learned German.
- Okay. - I prefer unusual things over common things.
Oh, you're like Se-yoon then.
- Nice to meet you. - Yes, nice to meet you.
- Take your seat. Welcome. - Nice to meet you!
Next, she's not from Teheranno in Yeoksam-dong.
She is actually from Tehran in Iran.
They're opening up their economy. The representative of Iran, come on out!
Come out!
(Iranian guest representative, Najafizadeh Sudeh)
- Nice to meet you. - Sudeh.
(I'm Sudeh from Iran. I'm very glad to meet you.)
(I'm studying at Hongik University.)
(I hope we will have a fun show together today.)
Hello, I'm Najafizadeh Sudeh from Iran.
I came to Korea because I was very interested in Korean culture and arts.
I'm currently studying for my masters degree in fiber art at Hongik University.
At Hongik University.
I see you have to wear a hijab all the time.
In my country, wearing a hijab is mandated by law.
- When women go outside... - It's about covering their hair.
- Hair, right? - Yes.
Women have about 100 of them.
- When they go outside... - The scarf?
- Yes, so they're very colorful. - More than 100?
- Yes, it's for looks. - Okay.
(Today's Non Summit Meeting member countries)
(Non Summit Meeting)
Okay, this is the time...
to discuss the issues from different countries that...
the representatives want to discuss.
We'll discuss all the global issues by saying...
"Agree or Disagree, What is So Important?"
Let's first hear from the Polish representative, Adela.
In the recent Euro 2016,
Poland made it to the quarterfinals.
- It attracted much attention. - Yes, it did.
Sadly, Poland lost in the quarterfinals through a penalty shootout.
But I was very proud.
But even in the recent Euro 2016,
there were many controversies because of the hooligans.
It's said that over 500 hooligans were arrested in France,
where the games took place.
What do you think of hooligans, the fanatical soccer fans?
I would like to propose this topic.
- Hooligans. - It's a serious issue in Europe.
But is anybody causing a disturbance called a hooligan?
The cheering teams that behave badly...
- are called hooligans. - Negative cheering teams.
- Yes, negative. - Weren't the worst hooligans...
- from England? - It is England.
There were riots. It was mayhem.
Is the hooligan problem serious in Poland too?
In Poland, hooligans are called Kibols.
- What picture is that? - The hooligans...
- Is that a playground? - Is it a prison for hooligans?
- What are they doing? - "Take off your tops only in here?"
- They allow them to watch the game. - They let them watch.
Oh, I see. So they can calm down while watching the game.
As I know, German hooligans are worse than Polish hooligans.
- German hooligans? - I don't know. I don't acknowledge that.
I saw a news article about Polish hooligans yesterday.
- From all the European countries, Poland has the most hooligans. - Really?
- That might be true domestically, but... - And...
- Polish hooligans use knives, axes, - Really?
and set fire on trees.
- They're violent. - It's a bit... Yes, but...
They are not real soccer fans.
There are those people who go out to make trouble.
So, sometimes the bad atmosphere builds up.
As I know, there were never any incidents like that abroad.
- Well, - Yes.
so the European Football Association issued a warning to take measure for this.
"If there are further violence, we might disqualify the countries."
If you think the countries...
that caused hooligan problems should be disqualified, press the button.
In 1, 2, 3. Press it.
I think it's working, but...
Alex, Christian and Zahid. You three think they should disqualify the countries.
- Isn't that too harsh? It's the fans doing it. - No.
These people are doing such things in foreign countries...
because cultures like that exist in these countries.
The soccer teams represent their countries,
so the countries should take responsibility for these things.
So, I think the countries will be more careful in the future...
if their teams are disqualified.
So, I think they should be disqualified.
I don't think the countries...
and their teams should be held responsible because of a few hooligans.
The players especially worked so hard to get there.
I think it's too harsh for them to be punished because of...
of the bad actions of a few people they don't even know about.
I actually think the hooligans will intentionally cause more problems...
when they realize that their countries can't participate.
Lots of people will think it's unfair.
I think disqualifying teams won't solve the problem.
In Germany, hooligans are...
people who take advantage of their identity as sports fans...
to show their political opinions in violent ways.
The German government sent the list...
of 2,500 German hooligans...
to France before Euro 2016 started.
Many of them act to achieve their political agendas.
I think disqualifying the teams is overreacting.
The reason why I think they should be disqualified is because...
we need regulations to make the hooligans realize...
that they might not be able to see their favorite teams due to their own actions.
They will be scared, so they won't do it again.
But there are also hooligans who just...
run around naked and things, instead of acting in a group.
They just do it for their amusement, not for their country.
- "Yes!" Shaking his bottom, "Yes!" - It's not for the team or anything.
If a team gets disqualified because of a person like that...
The national players didn't do anything wrong.
And it's not the countries' fault. I think it's actually...
the responsibility of the security organizations to stop them.
But recently,
- there was that Russian problem. - Yes.
(The worst case of violence in Euro 2016)
A Russian soccer official said,
- "Good job, keep it up." - Really?
- He said that. I read it. - I read it too.
When a country is doing that,
- the country should be... - Isn't it the official's fault?
He should be held responsible.
- Putting the blame on the players or the teams is... - But...
Exactly. He never apologized.
Then the country should apologize. "This official said certain things,"
"and we made a mistake". They never said that.
I don't think all countries were bad.
I think it was just the Russian official's fault.
- No country thinks that was a right thing to do. - That's also...
- But... - It was just one person.
But, in 1985,
they passed a resolution for prevention of hooligans.
Many countries worked together.
They wished to eliminate the hooligan problems...
and have been working to do that since then,
but the problems are continuing even now.
So, I think we need to take serious measures from now on.
- Doing that... - But anything...
- That... - Hold on, like that...
Aurélien, what are you going to complain about?
- Yes, for example, - He's moving in.
let's say Lucky's fan...
attacked Nik's fan.
It would be absurd if we ban Lucky...
- from coming to the Non Summit Meeting. - Right.
- That's right. - He should be banned.
- It's... - So, if we ban Lucky...
because Lucky's fan attacked...
Nik's fan, it would be too harsh.
- Yes. - I can relate to that very well.
"Very well."
It's so unrealistic.
Of course, I'm a bit worried that people will lose their passion for sports,
if we regulate too many things through legal methods.
And sly people... For example, if I...
wanted to disqualify a country,
- then I can just wear a blue top instead of a red one for that day. - Go as a spy.
- That makes sense. - We just entered a new stage of the debate.
- He's a spy! - That can happen.
We had lots of controversies over Indian spies.
Many Indian people come to work as spies.
- Whenever there is a chance. - Yes.
One was caught recently too.
- Lucky, what's going on? Isn't this Indian spy activity problematic? - Well...
No, it's...
Spy, it's...
- If I was a fan... - Wait.
Since Lucky is so fluent in Korean, he can just cover his face up...
- and disguise himself as a Korean and... - Yes, as a guy next door.
- He can disqualify us. - Yes.
(Let's go Korea!)
What are the popular sports in your countries?
Italy is very fanatical, right?
- Right? - To us, it's like a religion.
Soccer fandom is a religion.
If the grandfather liked a team, the father would like that team,
- So it passes down. - and it passes down. It's like an addiction.
People are crazy about soccer.
- How was it in Italy? Italy lost to Germany this time. - It must be very bad.
(They lost in the penalty shootout and failed to make it to the semifinal.)
(Celebrating)
(Despairing)
You lost.
We tied.
- Come on, you lost. - You lost in the shootout.
The Polish representative would understand.
- Penalty shootouts are all about luck. - Penalty shootouts are...
about luck, not skills.
"It's about luck."
- What do you mean luck? - Actually,
Italy... Germany never beat...
- Italy in a major international match, right? - They never won.
Until now, Italy was always a scary opponent for Germany.
You still didn't beat us. We tied.
- Penalty... - So, you won't acknowledge defeat by a penalty shootout.
- Now... - He's making excuses now.
- You didn't make it to the semifinals. - Right, but we never lost in a match.
That's a bad joke.
But before that, when the scores were 1 to 0, the Italian goal...
- was also from a penalty kick. - Yes, it was.
That was luck too. So, we won anyways.
I've never seen Nik talking like that.
(Soccer brought out his warrior nature.)
- Gosh, this is so childish. - Recently, Germany is...
- doing very well. - Do you have a rival?
In the history of soccer, England and the Netherlands were our biggest rivals.
And I heard that Poland considers Germany to be its rival,
but Germany never thinks of Poland as its rival.
- You're picking on Adela when she didn't do anything. - That's harsh.
- Oh, Germany... - We definitely think of Germany as the biggest rival.
As I said before, our match against Germany is like that between Korea and Japan.
To be honest, since we lost so many times to Germany,
we consider not losing as winning. This year's match was a tie,
so from Polish perspective, we won. We didn't lose.
- So, a tie is a win. - Yes, a tie is a win.
- That's a new way to think about things. - We didn't lose.
- That's a good mindset. - You're optimistic.
Are Italy and France rivals in soccer?
When it comes to soccer, it's like a match between Korea and Japan.
- France and Italy are? - We have to win, no matter what.
- It's okay to lose to other teams, but we must beat France. - Why?
I'm not sure, but Italy was colonized by France during Napoleon's rule.
So, I think something remained from that time.
Aurélien, do you also consider Italy to be your rival?
- France... - Historically, it has been England.
- This is funny. - The reaction...
It's because we beat them.
But nowadays, the England team isn't very good.
- They're really bad. - They lost again.
I think Europeans live to watch soccer games, right?
But, everyone cheers together for the national team.
The local team of your city is like an addiction.
Since childhood, we have to go watch soccer every Sunday. The team has to win.
And the neighboring city's team is the team we hate the most.
- It's always like that. - Do you like Juventus F.C?
I do, but Juventus is a team in Turin.
But there is another team named Torino F.C.
So they always quarrel and make fun of each other.
Germany is just like Italy.
I used to go watch soccer twice a month.
- I even joined a fan club. - Which team do you like?
Hamburg. They're not so good these days, but...
But I'm happy because Germany is winning.
You don't change the team you cheer for once you choose one, Right?
- Hamburg... - I've never changed mine.
- You keep supporting them all your life, right? - Yes.
- We can't change it. It's a religion. - Changing...
People who change their favorite team are not soccer lovers.
That's right. People who do that get ridiculed.
Until the end.
Aurélien, which team do you cheer for?
- My hometown. Lille OSC. - Lile? Aren't they bad?
Can you say that again?
(Could you repeat that?)
- Olympique Lyonnais is good. - No, I...
- Olympique Lyonnais is the best. - Do you have something like this in Switzerland?
We do have a soccer league, but it's not fun.
- So ice hockey is a lot more... - Oh, really?
- popular than soccer. - Really?
It's much more fun to watch.
- We actually have two very good ice hockey teams. - Okay.
Did you say Switzerland is good at ice hockey?
- We are! - I didn't know that. Switzerland?
- They're really good. - From Canada's perspective...
- There are lots of Swiss players playing in Canada. - Oh, really?
Soccer's not popular in Canada,
but the most popular sports is ice hockey.
- Or, as we call it, just hockey. - Hockey.
There was a big incident five years ago. We lost the Stanley Cup to the U.S.
So, there was a huge riot.
Many shops were burned. But in that situation...
a couple was kissing very beautifully at that time.
- A reporter caught that on camera. - They were kissing during a riot?
- It must be a hobby for them. - But that picture is a bit amazing.
There's fire burning in the back, but they're kissing.
We really don't care about soccer.
So, we don't have hooligan problems.
- I never heard of hooligans in basketball. - But we have a different problem.
Our politics is turning into sports in a way,
- Political hooligans. - so we now have lots of Trump Hooligans.
- Trump Hooligans. - Trump Hooligans.
That's the scariest type.
The problem is, he should be stopping them,
but Trump influences them.
He is like, "I'd like to punch him in the face too'.
He's doing that, so I wanted to bring that up for sports.
- Trump Hooligans. - There's something we're very curious about American sports.
- The way we cheer is very different. - It is.
When we go to watch sports matches,
we end up losing weight. Because we jump around and sing for an hour.
But Americans watch while eating things.
- It's really astonishing. - They gain weight.
I actually find Korean baseball attractive.
- Everyone cheers together. They even have those songs. - Right.
But even when we cheer enthusiastically, we'd drink and be like,
"Go, Yankees."
- I think... - Americans soldiers said this.
They said, they found these things to be amazing in Korean baseball matches.
- You know these sticks, right? - These?
- Thundersticks. - They said it's so funny. They wanted to take it to the US.
- Alberto said sports is like a religion. - Right.
- In India, it's cricket. - Pakistan.
We treat cricket players like gods.
- We build temples for them. - You build temples?
- Yes, we build a temple. - A temple?
- Do you pray? It's like Maradona. - Maradona has a temple for him.
- Does he have one? - Maradona has one.
But the players are alive. What if they come to the temples themselves?
- People would be praying and... - "He's here!"
"Bow down!"
- Speaking of cricket, when India and Pakistan play... - It's like a war.
Yes, it's a war.
If we lose in the World Cup, it's okay.
- But if we lose to India, - Yes?
People throw tomatoes and rotten eggs to the players at the airport.
- Do they get hit? - Yes.
Prices of eggs and tomatoes are skyrocketing in Pakistan right now.
- India... - What if India loses to Pakistan?
- How is it? In the airport. - We don't lose.
We never lost against Pakistan in the World Cup.
It's true.
Then the players will be getting hit all the time.
So now, because we lose all the time, people don't care anymore.
- Yes. - Okay.
We talked about many issues. "What is So Important" will be back next week.
Okay, let's invite today's guest representative.
The person who will join us today is very tall and beautiful.
- She's the female Sung Si-kyung. - What?
- They are of similar heights. - Yes.
She says she liked rainy days as a child because she could hide her height.
- With an umbrella, like this. - That's why we invited her in the rainy season.
It's Han Hye-jin, a model.
(The 107th Korean representative, Han Hye-jin)
- Oh my. - Welcome.
- Here she is. - Yes.
- Nice to meet you. - Welcome.
- Please introduce yourself. - Which way should I look?
- Anywhere. - This way.
(France is being honest from the start.)
- Wow. - Oh, Aurélien.
- He's very forward. - The Wolf.
Hello, I'm Han Hye-jin. I'm a model. Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
You didn't just work in Korea.
- Right. She's been abroad often. - She is famous.
- You must've been to the US. - Yes.
- France? - I have been there.
- Where else? Canada. - Canada.
- Italy? - I've been there.
- Germany? - I haven't been to Germany.
- Wait, Germany... - We started with the countries known for fashion and Germany...
- Germany is... - I only passed through Germany.
- She hasn't been there. - Passing by counts as having been there.
We will have the discussion for the 107th Non Summit Meeting with Han Hye-jin.
Han Hye-jin says she brought her own topic.
My topic is, "Only foreigners tell me that I'm pretty."
- "Am I abnormal?" - Okay.
- He's groaning. - No, I...
Haven't people told you that you're pretty...
in Korea?
- No way. - Hold on.
People do say she's pretty, but instead of saying that she's a typical beauty...
That's even worse, Hyun-moo.
- You're attractive. - I think attractive and pretty are different.
In Korea, the word attractive doesn't mean pretty.
That's what I honestly think.
To be honest, women feel good when they hear "You're pretty",
- not "Wow, you're so attractive". - Everyone, is she pretty?
- Of course. - That's not true.
- Their answers were... - Zahid.
What were you mumbling about?
- When were you first told that you're pretty? - When I went to the US.
I worked as a model in Korea for seven years.
It was when I went to New York for the first time in my eighth year.
- You heard it for the first time in the US, not Korea. - Right.
Did you hear pretty? Or beautiful?
- I heard everything. - Everything?
- "Oh my gosh, she's so gorgeous." - Right.
- Then when I went to Italy, I heard words like "Bella" every day. - Right.
Doesn't your boyfriend tell you that you're pretty?
My boyfriend? Does your girlfriend tell you that you're handsome?
- Of course! - Isn't that what everyone does?
Would you say, "You're ugly, but let's go out"?
No, boyfriends usually feel awkward to say it.
The girlfriend I dated for two years called me White Pig.
- Gosh, he likes it so much. - No, honestly. White Pig.
"Oh gosh, you're getting so chubby."
- But lovers don't say those things. - She was expressing her love.
Lovers don't say those things.
- Why not? - Why not?
- They don't. - What kind of women are you talking about?
- I've been dating for two years, and he still tells me that every day. - Pretty.
- He's Korean? - Yes.
- Yes! - We all practice while looking at a mirror every morning.
"Oh, you're pretty. You're so pretty."
"Pretty!"
It's like AlphaGo. "You're pretty. Pretty."
- Here, I'll press the button. - "You're pretty!"
- Button number two. - "You're pretty."
- You're attractive. - You're pretty.
- I think we will be talking about the standards of beauty today. - I think so.
"Only foreigners tell me that I'm pretty. Am I abnormal?" will be today's topic.
Let's hear from the representatives.
Press the button if you think it's abnormal.
- In 1, 2, 3. Press the button. - Press the button!
"Only foreigners tell me that I'm pretty."
If you think that's abnormal, press the button.
While you were talking,
I could sympathize with you a lot.
When I go to India, nobody tells me that I'm handsome.
- You made me laugh. - What about in Korea?
- What about in Korea? - The reason why I don't want to leave Korea is because...
"Your eyes are pretty. You're handsome."
- He is handsome. - I hear that a lot.
There is one compliment I get in India.
"You have a good body."
- You... - In Korea,
I actually get criticized a lot for my body.
"Lucky, why don't you lose weight? You have a decent face."
- It's really... - That was so funny.
Would people find this body attractive in India?
If I... If we go around together, people will go crazy. Like this.
Like this?
- The standards are different. - Yes. In Indian standards,
I have a decent body, but my face isn't very good looking.
- So, you can sympathize with her. - That's fascinating.
- I think it's normal because... - Okay.
Different countries have different standards of beauty.
Your looks might not be attractive in Korea's standards,
but you might be attractive in other countries' standards.
So, you can't say it's abnormal.
I'm average in Pakistan.
But I've been told that I'm handsome a few times in Korea.
- In Korea? - A few times in Korea.
- So, it's... - That's...
- Hye-jin just quietly covered her microphone... - Don't say it.
and said, "What's wrong with everyone?"
(Just a moment ago)
What's wrong with everyone?
- No, it's... - Why are you so generous with yourself?
- But... - It's true.
It's part of the Korean culture to give a lot of compliments about looks.
- We... - You know, in Korea... You know the term "empty words", right?
Most of the things we're told are empty words.
- No, it's... - I hear it a lot from men.
- Men? - Okay, fine. How about Alberto?
- I think Alberto is... - He's not handsome.
No. No, I mean...
- In Italian standards. - I'm just average.
No, Italian men are the best in my country.
- No, Alberto. - Let's talk about the countries a bit later.
Alberto is the best.
(Thank you)
I think there's something like this. When you go abroad,
I think it's normal to be told that you're pretty a lot more often.
There are lots of similar looking people in your country.
- Yes. - So, if you see someone who looks different,
I think people find those different looks...
much more attractive. They express it more too.
So, like Lucky,
I wasn't told that I'm ugly in Poland,
but I wasn't often told that I'm pretty.
- But in Korea I receive lots of... - But in Korea?
- In Korea? - "Your face is so small."
This was so shocking.
Because being told that your face is small isn't...
- much of a compliment in my country. - It's not a compliment.
Americans don't even think about that.
I realized that people have faces with different sizes after coming to Korea.
- It's just the same. - Oh, they don't talk about the size of your head.
- We don't even know that there are differences. - At all.
- I don't think there are standards for that. - We don't care.
- And... - I don't think there are any problems.
- Alex, you said it's abnormal. - Why is it abnormal?
People don't tell you that you're pretty, because everyone knows you are.
- Was that a pick-up line? - And...
- Nik? - I think it's abnormal too.
As I see it,
there are always certain trends in Korea.
So, people have trends for beauty too.
Everyone always follows idol stars. They try to look similar.
Even when they get plastic surgeries, they try to look like the idol stars.
Even though she's pretty, she doesn't match the Korean trend.
That's why people say she's attractive.
So, as I see it, when the trend changes later on,
she might be considered to be the most beautiful woman.
So, she doesn't match the trend now.
The Korean trend is... I'm sorry, but...
- The Korean trend is different... - Is the Korean trend, "I'm sorry, but"?
- "I'm sorry, but." - The trend is...
- constantly changing. - I'm going to say it.
- He's a model too. - Germany.
Oh, him?
She's your senior.
- He's young too. - Yes, he is.
- How old is he? - He's 23 or 24.
- You're 23? - Yes, I was born in 1993.
- Wow, I was born in 1983. - Oh my.
She's 10 years older.
- It won't be easy being a model from now on. - They...
- Anyway. - You've been told that you're beautiful in Korea a lot, right?
Like exotic or... There are many ways to express it.
I think all those expressions mean pretty.
- I think it's the same thing. - But she doesn't think so.
- That is what's abnormal. - She doesn't want attractive. "I really..."
"want to be a typical, pretty person."
(Breathing in and sighing)
Other countries...
- Why are you sighing? - I actually...
I met my wife abroad.
I really liked her when I met her,
so I asked my western friends.
I like this woman, how is she?
- And everyone said, "Wow, she's so pretty!" - So...
But, when I asked my Korean friends...
- They... - Wait a minute.
- Are you okay? - Doesn't your wife watch this show?
They told me, "She's quite average in Korea".
- They have different standards. - We just have different standards.
- She is obviously pretty. - He's right.
But I think people don't tell her that she is pretty...
because of a few reasons. The first one is...
What?
There are a few of them?
No, the first one is that Korean people think she's pretty, too.
But it's not easy for them to express it comfortably.
- They don't say it. They just think about it. - People don't say it.
- The second one is... - No.
Alberto, we failed.
Each country must have a different standard of beauty.
Tell us who is considered handsome or pretty in each country.
I'm curious how the standard of beauty changed over time in each country.
I think it changed a lot if I look back at the old times.
I think the concept of beauty...
is connected to the concept of prosperity.
You know, our history is deeply connected to Europe.
The women from famous drawings of old...
are a bit overweight and pale.
Those women rested in castles and ate a lot.
Because they were rich. They had money to spare.
On the contrary, farmers had tanned skin...
and were very thin. Those were considered to be signs of poverty.
Signs of ugliness, in the past.
But nowadays, to make money, many Americans...
have to keep working in the office like this. They don't work under the sun.
So now, people with lots of money and things to spend...
- go to gym and tan their body. - They tan their body.
They can go to tan their body.
On the opposite, people that work hard are pale.
- People who have spare time have darker skin. - That's right.
(The standards of beauty was reversed over time.)
(Jennifer Lawrence and Angelina Jolie)
In Germany, after World War II and after the unification of Germany,
there was a big difference between West and East Germany.
First, East Germany was heavily influenced by Russia.
West Germany was heavily influenced by the US
- So the difference was huge in Germany. - Really?
After reunification, because all media was influenced by the US,
everyone followed the American way.
Because the U.S. has the biggest influence on media these days,
I think everyone in the world is heading towards that direction.
Nik, are you considered to be handsome in Germany?
Not that much,
but still,
I think I'm all right.
That much. There's that, too.
- I shouldn't have asked. - It's...
- He is handsome. - Nik is handsome.
First of all, young women, up to college students...
like how Leonardo DiCaprio looked when he was younger.
Like you? Not so muscular, right?
No, I wasn't talking about the body. Just the face.
- A pretty boy. - That's the face they like.
As they get older,
they start to prefer more masculine face and body.
I think that's true around the world. Only Koreans like pretty men.
I never heard of women in other countries liking them.
- Right. - I think that's wrong.
It's not that they don't like it. They don't hate it either.
- They do. In Germany, they call them names. - No, they don't.
We call them pretty boys. People completely hate them.
European people like Korean idol singers too. The pretty guys.
- It's not mainstream yet. - Right.
There's also the atmosphere about music.
We like them from all those factors combined.
- It's not all about looks. - And also,
Western people and Asian people are a bit different.
If an Asian man is thin, we find it acceptable.
But if a western man is just as thin, it's a bit awkward.
But, in India,
if you have pale skin, you get praised a lot.
It's the same in Pakistan. If you look whiter,
people think of you as a social elite.
- It's because the UK used to rule us . - Yes.
When the British were around,
- they were considered to be the elite. - It's the same in the Philippines.
So the influence still remains today.
I think people still think that way, but it's changing now.
- You're a bit white-skinned, right? - Yes, I am.
(He's the handsome guy.)
- It's the opposite in Mexico. - It's the opposite of Iran, too.
Not just Mexico, but in Central and South America,
the body matters more than the face.
So there aren't many standards for the face unlike Korea.
I think tanned skin is very nice.
- Tanned. - Yes, tanned.
We like blue eyes a lot.
There are two different types of popular women in France.
One is blond with blue eyes.
- The other is Latino. - Central and South American.
- Isn't that... - What do you think?
- Me? - Which one?
I'm completely open-minded.
- You love everyone. - You're not picky.
I like attractive women.
She's an attractive woman.
- He's determined today. - A man...
He's determined.
- What about men? - A man...
needs to have a beard like me, if he wants to be popular.
- "Like me?" - Yes, like me.
- Is that a type of beard? - Yes.
Not a long beard. There is this saying in French.
(I get it!)
This expression...
means a beard that looks like you haven't shaved for three days.
- Oh, not shaved for three days. - Yes, but you need to maintain it.
- Vincent Cassel. - Oh, Vincent Cassel.
- Here... - He's handsome.
- Well, if so, - It's so...
- what about Zahid's? - His hasn't been shaved for a while.
- It's been more than three days. - This isn't the one.
- This isn't the one. - That's three years old.
Lucky has it.
The three-day beard. We...
It's the same in Pakistan.
Women like men with beards like Aurélien's.
- What about women? - In Pakistan,
we think it's not good for women to be slim.
People don't like women who are too thin.
So, Hye-jin would be okay.
(What?)
- What? - Too thin and slim are different.
- People that are unhealthily thin. - Yes.
But, when we work on the same show,
- she eats and drinks well. - Really?
She works out hard later. She doesn't starve.
- But it's getting more difficult as I get older. - It gets hard to lose weight.
Yes, it's harder to lose weight. It takes double the time and energy.
When you're on a diet, what is it that you miss the most?
But if I go on a diet for about two weeks,
- I become calm. I don't feel like eating anymore. - Do you lose your appetite?
How about some cold beer?
- I don't even miss drinking. No. - No?
- How about teokbokki or gimmali? - Once I start eating those,
I crave them crazily. But if I don't eat them...
Here's the man who craves them crazily.
- During the break, - Yes?
I was going to go on a diet and we had a sandwich in the waiting room.
Let's just have a taste. I just want a taste.
(He wanted just one bite for a taste.)
I chose a ham and egg sandwich to eat a meatless sandwich.
I bit into it and then it disappeared.
It was a ham and egg sandwich?
What do you mean a ham and eggs sandwich has no meat?
You know the yogurt drink that kids have? I don't mean plain yogurt.
- It has strawberry flavor! - It tastes like sugar a lot.
I found him drinking 6 to 7 of them in a row. I asked what he was doing.
- He said it's because yogurt is good for your body. - It has lactic acid bacteria!
- It's all sugar. - It's sugar?
You should have told me sooner!
- Have you not given up on dieting dream? - He still has it.
He doesn't do it but he keeps dreaming about it.
I am losing weight little by little.
- Haven't I lost weight since the last time we met? - You lost weight?
(I couldn't tell.)
In Korea, they consider women from Eastern Europe nations,
such as Ukraine and Belarus, as gorgeous and beautiful.
- Which country does your country pick as a land of beauties? - For instance,
- men in that country are handsome. - Women in that country are beautiful.
It's embarrassing to say it myself, but in Poland...
we are proud of Polish women as we claim that we are the most beautiful of all.
You mentioned Eastern Europe countries Ukraine and Belarus.
But you left out Poland which hurt my feelings.
I'm sorry, I didn't say Poland?
In terms of men,
Polish women view men from Germany or Eastern Europe nations,
such as Norway and Sweden as tall,
blonde, and blue-eyed. Polish women like them.
We also think German men are handsome,
but German women are ugly.
I read this poll.
The poll had people vote which European country...
has the highest number of good-looking people.
Every single country voted for its own country.
Germany was the exception. Germany didn't claim it should take first place.
- Germany is such an honest country. - Germany chose Italy or Spain.
I'm sorry but German women like Spanish men more than Italian men.
Italian men...
- are seen as greasy. - It's the German women's point of view.
- What about Italy? - To be honest, for countries of beautiful women,
we say all Latin American countries except Mexico. I feel sorry towards Christian.
- He said except Mexico! - Why?
- This is just because of a stereotype. - You need to explain this.
Mexicans eat lots of carbs, right?
There's a stereotype that there are many big women in Mexico because of that.
- Of course, there must still be many beauties in Mexico. - Of course.
- It's just a stereotype. - It's just a stereotype.
- What countries? - We like women from Cuba and Brazil.
There are many Italian men who travel there for fun and then never come back.
(Italy never lets us down.)
- Brazil! - A lot of Italian men do that.
- For some strange reason, Mark was really popular when we went to Italy. - Strange?
- Why is that strange? - I mean...
Why do you look down on me?
(Why do you look down on me?)
I'm a guy so I can't measure the attractiveness of a guy.
When my grandmother saw Mark...
- she said for one hour that he's so handsome. - Your grandmother?
(Mark is Alberto's grandmother's ideal man?!)
Mexicans really like Colombian women.
Columbia!
They have great bodies.
We think their Spanish accent is very sexy.
For instance, this is what regular Spanish greetings sounds like.
Hello! How are you?
But this is how Colombian women sound.
Hello! How are you? It's like this.
It's charming. It's very good.
Are there any famous Colombian women?
- Shakira! - Shakira!
- Now I remember! - She sings "Hips Don't Lie."
Recently,
there have been many men in Switzerland who are interested in oriental women.
Especially after, Psy's "Gangnam Style" music video,
there is a scene with pretty women.
After "Gangnam Style" was released, the number of people...
interested in Korean women...
- increased. - And it was due to the music video?
In India, even before that song...
Indians really liked Koreans and women of Mongolian descent.
Their faces are white and their bodies are skinny.
There's something similar in America. It's not the majority,
- but there are men who only like Asian women. - There are so many.
People think it's a different kind of racism.
There's a very insulting expression to describe them.
It's called, "Yellow Fever".
When there's a guy who's like that, he's viewed as terrible.
I think it's a misunderstanding about Asians.
People think such a man isn't attracted by their appearance,
but rather their quiet and obedient nature.
I think it's a misunderstanding about Asian women.
Which Korean celebrity is your ideal woman?
- It's everyone except Suzy. - Why would you exclude Suzy?
(Suzy is untouchable.)
It's because she's impossible to ever dream of dating.
- Is Suzy considered a beauty in every nation? - Of course.
- How about France? - Yes, she is.
Is it the same in Switzerland?
Who is Suzy?
(Who is Suzy?)
He's so cool!
He's bluffing.
(You don't know Suzy?)
He's bluffing. "Who is Suzy?"
That was so cool!
- Some men like Alex must exist in this world. - Of course.
We talked about women celebrities. If we talked about male celebrities,
- Choi Min-sik is the coolest. - Choi Min-sik.
In my next life,
I would like to be born as Choi Min-sik and try that life.
What movie made you like him?
It was "Nameless Gangster : Rules of the Time".
He acts with handcuffs on in the movie.
"I am your boss! We ate together just yesterday!"
I'm your boss! We ate together, right?
(His acting is as good as the legendary actors' acting.)
(Lucky is very excited now.)
(JunYooSung is even more excited than the excited Lucky.)
I think Choi Min-sik is amazing even when I just hear his voice.
His charisma is no joke.
What exclamations or gestures do you do or say to beautiful people in your country?
- This will be fun. - Of course, Italy will have the most.
- Let's listen to Italy first. - How do you do it?
We whistle. I can't do it though.
- I think they do it so much. - They do.
In whatever country I go to,
I hear it the most in Italy.
- It made me feel terrible. - It made you feel terrible?
Of course! Someone is looking at me and whistling.
When we are auditioning, we have to wear very short skirts...
or very tight pants.
It's not polite.
- Right? - I've never done it once in my life.
- People who do it are impolite. - It's impolite.
The polite way is to express it with your facial expression.
- They express it with hand gestures a lot. - How?
They do this motion a lot.
Are they seals?
(Barking)
Do you usually do it with a ball on your head?
(He uses his body to express the joy of seeing a beautiful person.)
It means there's a lot.
It means there is a lot of beauty.
It means her beauty is overflowing.
Would you like it if you were walking and a man did this in front of you?
(Her beauty is overflowing.)
They never do it in front of the woman.
- There's no sound. - It's while guys are by themselves.
It's after the woman passes by.
After the woman passes by, you'd turn and do this.
- They do it in front of guys. - I don't do this.
I'm from New York, right?
There's something similar in New York. It's catcalling.
It's when a woman passes by and she doesn't want it,
but men call out, "Hey, baby," or "Hey, sexy."
(It's an experimental film of 1 woman walking for 10 hours in New York.)
(Wow, you're sexy.)
(Hey, you're killing it.)
It's actually making fun of her. It's not polite.
Do people make their own new expressions?
- Do you mean slang? - An example would be the phrase "My bag is wet."
It's wet! Bang! Black!
You mean "cornea"!
"My cornea..."
- "is wet" - It's difficult.
- Do you mean "My cornea is ripped?" - Yes.
Yes, I meant "My cornea is ripped."
It's a special sign among themselves.
- Hey, my cornea is ripped. - Are you okay?
(Am I insured for this? My cornea ripped because you're so beautiful?)
(Oh no, my cornea!)
As you know, Indian men have difficulty engaging women in conversation.
You said Indian men only stare at the women.
(This is a real street in Delhi. They stare like sunflowers looking at the sun.)
Let's say you see a woman having a meal and you're attracted to her.
If you go next to her and whistle, you'll get slapped.
(You receive a heated slap instead of a response.)
- The women wouldn't look at you? - What if you winked?
- What if you wink at her? - You'd get slapped on the other cheek.
(It's a slap of dishonor on both cheeks.)
A whistle gets you a slap here. A wink gets you a slap there.
In Pakistan, if a very beautiful woman walked by,
- men say, Mashallah. - Mashallah.
It's the same in Iran.
- If you want to give a compliment, you say Mashallah. - Mashallah.
It's not offensive to hear Mashallah?
- Yes, that one is okay. - What does Mashallah mean?
It means you were well-made by the divine being.
(You're a divine gift.)
There's also this expression in Pakistan.
You say this long phrase to your friends if a really beautiful woman walks by.
Wow, a divine being made that woman with his own hands.
They say an expression that long when she's passing by?
It's after she passed by and you're talking about her with friends.
- It is very romantic. - It sounds like literature.
When women pass by, Korean men say, "Hey, you're drop-dead gorgeous."
(She's hot.)
Men don't say, "Hey, you're drop-dead gorgeous."
Then what do they do? What do Korean men do?
We say, "Hey, check out the person on your 2 o'clock."
- It's such an old method. - What's with that?
- Only middle-aged men would say that. - It's so that the girl doesn't hear you.
- What's that? - It's when there are only guys.
- 10 o'clock. - I saw her a moment ago.
- With guys, they've already seen the girl. - I saw her.
There could be problems when people obsessively pursue beauty.
I bet there was a controversial event in each country with this issue.
In Iran, people get extreme plastic surgery done.
Unlike Korean women,
- They want low noses? - Yes.
They turn their noses smaller and lower.
There was a case where a person's nose...
disappeared from too many surgeries.
- They kept making it smaller? - Yes., that's what happened.
There was another case, where a woman injected so much filler into her lips...
to try and look like Angelina Jolie.
(Her lips took up half of her face.)
- Half of her face... - Her lips took up half of her face?
Yes, they did.
In 2011,
there was a VIP scandal that caused quite a controversy in France.
It was about bad quality silicon.
A French company sold very bad silicon for breast implants...
which affected about 300,000 people worldwide.
- It was because they sold silicon that was for industrial use. - Yes.
They are terrible people.
Two people were diagnosed with cancer so far from this.
- They had cancer? - Yes, from the silicon.
They wanted to manufacture them cheaply.
About 20 years ago, a famous female celebrity in Italy had...
breast implants, she was almost the first star to get them done. But they were huge!
Many women mimicked her.
The problem happened when this celebrity was on the airplane.
- No way. - Please don't say anymore.
- Was it due to change in pressure? - Her breasts exploded.
- Why would they explode from being on an airplane? - Is that possible?
It's because the surgery techniques weren't good back then.
- I think so. - This convinced Italians not to get plastic surgeries at that time.
Nowadays they are getting them again. Many get them.
On the other hand, I heard people trying to be skinny is a problem in Switzerland.
(Having a skinny body is a problem for Switzerland?)
Mannequins in the shop windows are very skinny, right?
That became a problem. Many Switzerland shops...
began displaying plus-size mannequins.
There's this organization for the disabled.
They made mannequins that are shaped like disabled people.
They placed those mannequins in front of many shop windows.
It intends to send the message that no one has the perfect body.
They carried out that project.
There's even a movement that says we shouldn't even use the word "plus-size".
It's not a good word.
- That word itself is discrimination in a way. - Right.
It's not good for someone like Han Hye-jin﻿ to keep appearing on TV.
- That's right. - It's stress for ordinary people.
TV needs to show bodies like mine a lot more.
I do think about this a lot since I'm a model.
For people to see magazines with me in them,
they may think they have to be skinny like me...
for clothes to look good on them. They may think like that.
Ever since I was young, I was made fun of for being taller...
than other kids and for being very skinny.
I hope people would be aware of that, too.
In Canada, ever since we were very young,
teachers tell us beauty is what's on the inside.
Canadian kids hear that every week. They hear that every week.
They start to truly believe in it later on.
When you take a look at Miss Canada pageants,
Those who win the competitions have very good personalities, education,
volunteer for many things, look kind, and are also skilled in music.
The evaluate appearance only after considering these aspects.
Even women who don't look great in bikinis can win this competition.
It's an admirable case.
We've been talking about beauty standards so far.
We will now talk not about the beauty of people,
but the values that each country upholds as beautiful.
There are many beautiful things in Italy.
Italians really like coffee.
We continually drink espressos.
In many regions, there is this culture.
When you go to drink coffee,
you pay for your own coffee...
- and then pay for a random customer who will come after you. - That's nice.
If you do that, they stick a sticker on the cash register.
It says, "Free Cup of Coffee". A person would drink a cup of coffee,
and then enable a customer after him or her to have a free cup of coffee.
(It's a small gift for a complete stranger.)
It's not required but a beautiful culture that exists.
- It's really interesting. - Sometimes, when people are in a good mood...
- It's whenever you feel like it? - They drink their own and pay for a stranger.
Someone could get free coffee all the time and never buy coffee for anyone else.
- Right, someone would. - Of course, there must be people like Se-yoon.
Alberto, it's possible in Italy...
because a cup of espresso doesn't cost even one dollar.
- It's true. - It's cheap.
It's cheap.
- That's right. - He sees things like this often.
Good one, Alex.
I think classical music is also a very beautiful culture.
For example, there are German composers like Beethoven and Bach.
Many people think, however, that Beethoven is Austrian...
while Hitler is German.
Germans call this misconception Austria's greatest achievement.
It's actually the opposite. Beethoven is German,
and Hitler was born in Austria.
- Music... - When you talk about classical music,
- the divine composer of music Chopin was Polish. - Chopin!
- Chopin! - Yes, he was Polish. Wieniawski was also Polish.
- Italy is famous for operas. They are more active. - Opera.
- Italian composers like Puccini, Rossini and Verdini. - There are so many.
There are so many operas from Italy.
This is all ancient history.
(This is all ancient history.)
Right, we should talk about people who are alive.
France has EDM!
When you think of EDM, you think of France.
I think the sexual culture in Germany is beautiful.
- Sexual culture? - Does Germany have an advanced sexual culture?
- No, that's not what I meant. I meant castles. - He means castles.
I see, castles!
- I agree. - Please don't misunderstand.
You explained it away before I could even misunderstand.
(No one misunderstood but he still explained himself.)
A representative German castle is Neuschwanstein Castle.
- You all know the Disney logo, right? - Yes.
The logo was designed based on image of that castle.
It'd be funny to say Germany is a country advanced in architecture.
(Pardon?)
- Don't people say Italy and France are countries with great architecture? - Yes.
That's just historical architecture of the past.
All the architecture is exactly the same as then. There's no progress!
Have you been to France? The castles are truly the best.
- French castles are amazing! - They look boring.
The two of them formed a team.
- They are no fun. - He's looking at them with no interest.
I've been to Neuschwanstein castle. It's a great castle.
When was it built?
- Is it 103 years?- 103 years old.
- Is it 103 years? - It was built 103 years ago.
There are castles in France that are older than 500 years.
- There are castles that are 800 years old. - Really?
Neuschwanstein castle isn't the only castle in Germany.
Neuschwanstein castle isn't the only German castle. There are over 25,000 castles.
- I have this many castles! - I'll give you some.
- France has countless castles. - You shouldn't fight over castles in a Korean show.
- Isn't Taj Mahal the best? It was built for love. - It's incredible.
- It was built for love. - That's not a castle.
- Is it not? What is it? - It's a cemetery.
It's a grave but they made it look like a castle.
Yes, it's a grave.
Well then, do we call a castle a kitchen because it has a kitchen inside?
- Someone has to live there. - This is amazing.
What foreigner uses the phrase,"Well then"?
They did build it as a grave,
but it's more glamorous than a castle. It contains the history of the 15th century.
It's the world's best work of art created for love.
It's beautiful but that's not a castle.
It's beautiful. Try visiting it sometime.
(This is his third defeat in an argument.)
He's a middle-aged man.
He's a middle-aged man you can't win an argument with him.
Don't we think of Eastern Europe when we talk about castles?
This is what's unfortunate. People say Czech Republican architecture is beautiful.
Nowadays, I think it's getting recognized for beautiful castles.
You can trace the reason back to the war.
Czech didn't fight at all and immediately surrendered.
That's how they were able to maintain their cultural structures.
My country, however, was so active in war.
We resisted and fought to the very end.
There are so many things that were destroyed in the war.
In Poland, there's a city called Krakow.
There are many architectural buildings there.
There isn't enough publicity about it.
I'm sad because that's why many people go to Czech Republic rather than Poland.
Is there a direct flight from Korea to Poland?
It will be available for the first time ever, starting from this October.
I see, there will be a direct flight.
- Where in Poland? - It'll be available from October 15th to the city of Warsaw.
There will be a direct flight to Warsaw is available.
Since you've lived in Korea, was there any Korean cultural items you liked?
- Yes, tell us some good things about Korea. - True!
I like Korean side dishes.
I love the unlimited refills for side dishes.
What is your favorite side dish?
- It's stir-fried anchovies. - stir-fried anchovies.
(The taste of stir fried anchovies has won over a French person!)
He said...
It's a good culture because you can try various food items at once.
You can taste many different dishes in one sitting.
They give you a little bit of each and then give you more when you run out.
The side dish culture is full of human affection.
There are some who like this and some who don't.
This is the Korean culture I find beautiful.
It's going to the ocean or the mountain on New Year's Day...
to see the sunrise.
- It's the culture of seeing the sunrise! - I always thought that was weird.
- Why do you think it's weird? - Why?
The sunrise is the same every day.
It's because it's January 1st!
I don't understand why you have to go on New Year's Day.
Do you celebrate Christmas with your family?
Go and see the sunrise? Well...
- I mean do you celebrate days like Christmas? - But...
It's the same as any other day! Why celebrate it then?
(The young man is full of poison after three defeats.)
- I asked you if you celebrate! - This is the first time people fought over sunrise.
- I asked you if you celebrate! - Do you celebrate it?
Hold yourself back.
Nik has a temper.
Why are we doing this today?
- It's different. - On Christmas, loved ones gather together.
- Right? - Loved ones get together on New Year's Day as well.
Families spend time by themselves at home.
I heard it can take up to 4 to 5 hours to get to the Eastern Sea.
- Why bother going all the way there? - Also in Europe,
on New Year's Day... When you do that...
people travel for 3 to 4 hours to see fireworks.
They walk and wait to watch. It's the same thing.
Nik, you said this in the beginning.
"Some like this and some don't."
That person just doesn't like it, that's all.
- He's never even tried it though! - That's true.
- If you see it. - I have gone and seen it before.
When you go and see it on January 1st.
- I will go on the day after January 1st. - Alex!
I asked if you celebrate Christmas!
You can say it after you've tried it!
(There is peace in Non-Summit yet again today.)
Korea's night culture is very good.
- Night culture? - Night culture?
Korea's night culture is very good.
- Night culture? - Night culture?
I don't mean night life. I mean night culture!
I like the overall culture.
What did you eat with your drinks that night?
- The topic of night life has to be on the news. - Okay.
- I meant night culture! - Does it get quiet in Iran after a certain hour?
People usually stay at home after 9pm.
They're all home around 9 or 10pm.
- Is it dangerous? - Yes, it could be a little dangerous.
- I really like Korea's garden culture. - Garden culture.
I live near Changdeokgung Palace.
- The flowers are in bloom inside there. - It's a whole different scale.
I was so surprised when I went to the secret garden.
- Palace garden. - I'm sure you've seen this, but in Japan...
the gardens are very small and you can't put your hands on them.
They're not very natural.
It's the same in China. The gardens look unnatural.
- There are strange huge rocks. - They are glamorous.
Korean gardens take nature just as it is.
They express it very naturally.
I think that's charming.
Mark lives in a traditional Korean house.
- Isn't that culture also very beautiful? - I agree.
- I hope it'll be maintained for a long time. - It's the best.
On this 107th episode with Han Hye-jin's topic,
"Only foreigners tell me that I'm pretty. Am I abnormal?"
The answer is that since everyone has different standards,
we will ask the eyes of the entire world to decide.
Our program is about pre-established answers.
(Non Summit Meeting, a show held together by all the young men of the world.)
How did you feel coming on our show?
- It was really shocking. - What was?
Lucky was shocking.
- Lucky was shocking? - I think he's really incredible.
- Why? - What phrase did he use? It was "Well then".
- "Well then, so what?" - It's the way middle-aged men speak.
"Well then, so what?"
- Thank you. - It was so fun.
- You've worked so hard, Hye-jin. - Thank you for your hard work, everyone.
(Non-Summit cheers on our society to see people's internal beauty.)
I would now like to adjourn our Non Summit Meeting.
Until the day we all become normal!
Our show was so fun today...
There were people who forgot to answer a phone call.
- Pardon? - There must be those with missed phone calls.
- Pardon? - They might have not picked up their phones.
- You mean when there's a phone call. - What then?
I'm sorry I didn't take the call before, I'm shy from watching Non Summit Meeting
I would now like to adjourn our Non-Summit Meeting!
You brought a very hot issue for discussion.
Recently, there was the issue of fighting over the South China Sea.
I think the final court judgment is nonsense.
- China is currently building an island with the boulder. - It's artificial.
The fight over power began since 2,000 years ago during Xin Kingdom Era.
Did they think they'll get everything if they just say they want it?
If you can't maintain peace and security if you don't honor international decisions.
This result is from honoring those decisions.
(They don't back down at all in this debate.)
The game "Pokemon Go" is a huge trend right now.
You catch Pokemon through use of augmented reality.
You need to continually walk while holding your phone like this.
That's why it's dangerous.
I thought everyone went insane when I heard about this news.
Rather than safety regulation, the company shouldn't place Pokemon in weird places.
It needs to create that system.
There was a tip for players that there was Pokemon around a park in India.
In a split second, 2,000 to 3,000 people ran there.
Really? People are that crazy over this game?
Did you say 2,000 to 3,000 people?
