To ensure global peace and security,
while top representatives from each country
were convening at the UN for discussions,
despite the lack of any official recognition,
the self-appointed Gs around the world,
are convening to ensure global peace and
security for youth around the world,
and so, the Non-summit Meeting.
(Declaration of the meeting)
I am Chairman Jun Hyun-moo of the Non-summit Meeting.
- I am Secretary-General Yoo Se-yoon. - I am Chairman Sung Si-kyung.
We're Jun. Yoo. Sung.
Welcome, Gs.
- Welcome everyone. - How are you.
We're going to have our 100th episode soon.
We have come a long way.
- Already? - Really.
It felt as if long time'd passed when we had 10th, but time flew by since then.
True.
I think we haven't had a chance to hear how everyone's doing lately.
How are you guys doing? Guillaume, what have you been doing lately?
I recently met one of the first friends I made in Korea,
and I met Ko Ji-yong from Sechs Kies at the restaurant we went.
- Wow. - He was really cool.
His wife joined us later too.
His wife was super cool too.
Do you guys know what Sechs Kies mean in German?
It means six crystals.
It doesn't sound like anything when I hear it in German.
We hear the word kies, we think of pebbles.
Six pebbles?
Six stones? So what's your conclusion, Guillaume?
- So the conclusion is-- - You met a celebrity?
I was happy to meet him.
That's the most eventful--?
Congratulations.
(I hang out with famous people)
(Gs are nice enough to act happy for Guillaume)
- Let's hear what Alberto's been doing. - Tell us.
- Can I say this here? - What is it?
What?
I'm so happy these days.
(What? No way? Did he win a lottery?)
What's going on?
We're going to have...
the first baby of Non-Summit Meeting.
(Alberto is going to be a daddy)
She's due soon. About two months...
Already? Wow, that's so soon.
- How come you haven't told us before? - He didn’t?
We'll see Alberto Jr. soon.
I want food.
It's so miraculous.
(Congratulations)
What do you call your baby? Any nickname?
We call him Almaeng.
Almaeng?
That's cute.
We combined Al from my name and my wife's surname, Maeng.
Her last name is Maeng?
Al plus Maeng.
Alberto's baby.
- That's so awesome. - Almaeng.
Almaeng is so cute.
Let's all congratulate him one more time and wish him a healthy baby.
(Alberto will be a good father to Almaeng)
Se-yoon, I hear you did good deeds.
I don't know if it can be called good deeds, but--
Remember we talked about minimalism one time?
I'd been reading some books on that topic before that discussion.
I had so much stuff.
While I organized my stuff, I found so many clothes.
I sold my used clothes at cheap price.
And I made small amount of money from it.
After thinking about what to do with the money, thought it's a very small sum--
(He donated all profit to charity)
(You're awesome, bro)
(Embarrassed)
He acts on his words.
That's amazing.
It's not easy to actually carry out good deeds
after talking about them. That's very admirable.
Please let us know if you do it next time.
We'll bring our stuff--
I don't know about your clothes...
Guillaume, you might have to pay to have people buy your clothes.
(Let's begin today's debate with our hearts warmed with good news)
First, let's find out about people's pride in their countries,
and dispel stereotypes in,
"What Country? Neighboring Country!"
Today, we'll meet a representative from a country with diverse culture and race,
a country where clean nature and purity still exists.
Let's welcome Ali from Pakistan.
(Guest representative of the 98th episode, Ali)
(Ali: 25 yrs old. Nationality: Pakistan. Job: Student, Actor)
(A mysterious country)
(Hold land, Pakistan)
Hi, guys, My name is Ali.
I came to Korea from Pakistan because of my parents' work.
I go to Korea University.
In Korean, please.
Hello, my name is Ali.
I've always interested in TV industry,
and I was in the TV show called "Descendants of the Sun" recently.
What was your role?
There's a character named Fatima in the show. My character was her boyfriend.
Fatima's boyfriend?
His pronunciation is...
- His Korean is almost as good as Tyler's. - Might be even better.
I surpassed him.
You might get there after spending few more years in school.
(Bring it on!)
We know each other.
Like attracts like.
His writing is not as good as yours?
I once created a web magazine that publishes Korean writings done by foreigners,
and Ali's sister called me and
asked me to help Ali improve his Korean writing.
She asked you to tutor him?
I went there for an interview but ended up interviewing him.
(Dang)
He was better back then.
(It's hard to believe that Tyler was once not good at Korean)
For us, Pakistan's enveloped in mysteries.
Please ask Ali what you've wanted to know about Pakistan.
Pakistan has a part of the Himalayas.
I heard there is a very famous mountain called K2.
And there are also five mountains with elevations greater than 8000m.
Could you tell us more about them?
There are 14 mountains with elevations over 8000m.
They are called Eight-Thousanders.
Pakistan has five of them.
Five?
Pakistan also has K2, the second highest mountain in the world, with an elevation of 8612m.
It's called the Savage Mountain.
It's extremely dangerous.
Do many Pakistanis like to climb the mountains too?
Or is it just for mountain climbers?
We go to the mountains often. We like it.
There are many ski resorts.
So it's like taking a vacation.
Ordinary people don't climb like this, right?
Of course not.
(No way)
They look like they are just trekking in neighborhood trails.
Has anybody succeeded in conquering the summit of K2?
In 1954, an Italian expedition succeeded.
In 1954.
There are other mountains that are dangerous as well.
Gasherbrum is the eleventh highest mountain.
And Broad Peak ranks 12th.
There's Baltoro glacier.
Baltoro is the longest glacier in the world.
It runs for more than 60 km.
Glacier is 60km?
It's made of other glaciers that melted and came together.
(Impressed)
This guy's not lost ,is he?
Isn't he Nikolai?
Since Pakistan has many big mountains, it also has the highest paved roads in the world.
You're right.
The highest road?
It's called Karakoram Highway.
Gosh.
It connects Pakistan with China.
The construction has started in 1959.
It took almost ten years to complete it.
During the ten years of building, about 3000 people lost their lives.
- 3000? - About that.
It'll be crazy if people drove like they do on the German Autobahn.
They will fly off if they do.
- You know there is-- - They will be "out" of the road.
(Out forever)
(That's funny)
You can go to China through this?
- Yes it connects two countries. - Which region in China?
It's Xinjiang region.
Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
Chinese people often go travel to Pakistan on that road.
You don't need visa.
I'm sure it's beautiful. If it's not too dangerous.
You can't use that road in the winter, right?
It can be very dangerous because of the wind and snow.
You have to have emergency kits in the car all the time.
There's also a place called Gorakh Hill.
Gorakh Hill.
Hyun-moo has his handful today.
My arm's sore.
There are so many places to introduce.
You will lose fat from the left side of love handles.
As long as I lose some.
Yes, it's called Gorahk Hill and what you see over there is a train station.
What? Train station?
That's train station?
It's at 1,734 metres above sea level.
Wow.
The cool thing is that you can see so many stars up there.
It's a remarkable sight.
(Jaw dropping beauty)
- What does Gohrak mean? - It means wolf.
The hill of wolves.
Are there wolves there?
Who knows.
Is it a popular date spot?
It's popular among tourists.
Another tourist attraction is the Hunza Valley.
- Honza? (Means alone in Korean) - No, Hunza.
- It's Hunza. - I see.
It's for people with warm heart. (Korean pun)
It's a beautiful place that's located at 2000m above sea level.
(The Hunza Valley is called "the last paradise left on Earth")
(It's located at 2500m above sea level and surrounded by snow-capped mountains)
People here live up to 140 years old.
Then how come people don't move there?
It's one of the longevity village in the world.
In this village, people over 90 can have babies.
Seriously?
- It's not an exaggeration? - Really.
It's not that they miscounted their age, right?
He means that men over 90 can impregnate a woman.
He was talking about men. Not women.
What's their secret for longevity?
- This place is-- - The air quality must be a topnotch.
That too. But this village has lots of apricot trees.
People there eat apricots daily
so some people think apricots are the reason for longevity.
How old is your grandfather, Ali?
He's 117 years old.
- Really? - He's still alive?
He still exercises and stuff?
Maybe they count a year differently from us.
- You don't become two years older in one year? - Not at all.
- Just one year? - Yes.
(Stop being so suspicious)
I heard that Pakistan has sixth largest population.
Scientists estimate that the population of Pakistan will soon surpass that of Brazil.
They will become the 5th largest.
Do people worry about the population growth at all?
Currently we have about 200 million people.
It's the sixt-most populous country.
The government did try some campaign to control the population growth.
They tried to encourage family planning.
But it didn't work well.
Some people are for the campaign and some are not.
I am personally against it.
I think suppressing the population growth when Pakistan as a country is developing
will hinder the further growth because we won't have enough human capital.
These days, the size of population is often equated to the power of country.
- How many siblings to you have? - I have one sister.
He has only one.
How about your father?
He has eight siblings.
- That's a lot. - That's normal.
If you ever have children,
how many do you want?
Would one hand suffice?
Do you need another one?
(Guillaume kindly offers his hand)
Two or three?
- It's similar to mine. - That's it?
Maybe it's because you've been living in Korea for long.
How about young folks in Pakistan?
The wealth gap affects it.
More affluent people have two or three children
whereas lower-income families have lots of children.
I can't really think of any when I think of Pakistan food.
It's because I've never been to Pakistan restaurants.
Can you introduce Pakistani food for us?
There's a dish called Biryani.
- Biryani. - Biryani.
(Here's the picture of Biryani)
It's made by mixing rice with sauce and spices and steam.
It's a little similar to Korea's fried rice.
You eat this with hands, right?
- You eat with your hands in Pakistan also, correct? - That's right.
Pakistani cuisine is similar to Indian cuisine.
It's very similar. It just tastes a bit different.
They have the same dish in India.
That one's called Paya.
Paya.
It's similar to jokbal in Korea.
- Is it pork? - No.
It's the hoof of a cow.
- A cow's hoof. - People don't eat pork, right?
We make this especially for children
when their bones are weak and growing.
Do you eat this with your hand?
I eat with a spoon.
We have a reason for eating with our hands.
It's because the Prophet Muhammad--
Muhammad?
It's because Muhammad ate with his hand, we take the practice as sacred.
Do you eat from the bowl when you want to drink the soup only?
Of course we use spoons in such case.
Right? It's not as if you aren't allowed to use a spoon.
We use spoons.
How about making the finger concave like this?
Try some soup.
It'll be very salty.
There's a dish called Samosa.
- Samosa? - I know that one.
- Samosa. - It's like street food.
Street food.
- Like Dumplings? - It's similar to fried dumplings.
You can choose your own fillings.
What's inside usually?
Some have only vegetable,
some have only meat,
It can be made with beef or chicken.
There are many different kinds.
What is this?
It's kind of like rice cake. (Pakistani dessert Barfi)
- How do you pronounce it? - Barfi.
It's very sweet.
They say you eat sweets on a sweet day. We serve them at wedding.
- We too have sweets for guests at wedding. - Right.
Isn't it a little too oily?
We enjoy them with Chai tea.
- It balances out. - Like Chai latte.
It has other flavors than sweet flavor. Some of them are nutty.
There are many flavors.
Is it true that about 70 percent of soccer balls in the world
are made in Pakistan?
That's correct.
I thought they were made in China.
All the soccer balls I saw in China were Pakistani product.
The balls used in World Cup are also made in Pakistan.
Same in Europe.
The reason is that many Pakistanis are dexterous with their hands,
and we make more than 70% of hand-made soccer balls in Pakistan.
- They are handmade? - It's really interesting.
There was a big company in Pakistan, but a controversy broke out
when it was known that it takes a child three hours, 1620 stitches to make one ball.
Children have to stitch that much in 3 hours?
That's child labor abuse.
They get paid only 60 cents for three hours of work.
The company was driven out because of that.
But it was not entirely a good thing. Those kids can't make money any more.
It's a complicated matter.
But I heard that Pakistanis do not really enjoy playing soccer?
We don't.
The most popular sports in Pakistan is...?
It's cricket.
- Cricket? - It's influence of England.
Right. Are they good?
We are very good.
Cricket is the most boring sports I know.
(You Italy!)
Aren't they like all over the place when they throw the ball?
- It take a full day to throw. - It's neither hockey nor baseball.
Do you find cricket more fun than baseball?
Pakistanis prefer cricket.
I had a Pakistani roommate who work up in the wee hour to watch the game in real time.
- So that he can watch the game on time. - There are many people like that.
Is cricket more popular even in World Cup season?
Yes it is.
Really?
We are crazy about it.
As much as Italy loves soccer.
On days cricket game is held, the whole country is taking a day off.
- They do? - We just take a dayoff.
It's not an official holiday, but people just take their day off.
So the famous cricketers are like superstars?
Absolutely.
They make a lot of money. People say you should be a cricketer if you want to be rich.
Who's the superstar now?
There's someone called Imran Khan. (Sounds like American with Korean accent)
American?
His name is American?
(American?)
American from Pakistan?
Khan is a very common name.
It's Ameri Khan?
Ameri Khan?
The correct pronunciation is Imran Khan.
Imran Khan.
Two cups of Ameri-khan-o please.
Did you order two Imran Khan?
I heard that in Pakistan car tuning is very popular, especially truck tuning. Why is that?
- Why is that? - They are really cool.
Drivers drive for such a long time.
They miss their hometowns a lot.
In order to ease that longing...
This is no ordinary tuning.
- The trucks are very unique and individual - So cool.
- It's so elaborated. - Beautiful.
The paintings are hand-painted.
They paint and write their own quotes.
- That's right. - They are artists.
(Truck Art: Originated in 1950s by truck drivers who decorated their trucks to remind home)
It started due to home sickness?
Yes, they wanted to put elements that remind home and the unique characteristics.
They'd decorate with bright colors when they are happy
and change to dark colors when feeling gloomy.
- They change it every now and then? - Yes.
It keeps changing.
In Germany, truck drivers often hang their favorite soccer team's scarves
in the back of the truck because we love soccer.
Sometimes they jeer at one another, just for fun.
In Egypt, they write their favorite quotes and saying.
We just put up a picture of beautiful women.
(Aw, you Brazil)
(The country of passion)
China has a great relationship with Pakistan.
When I was young, we were taught that
Pakistan and China are sister countries and that we should help each other.
Do Pakistanis
think of China as such?
There's a saying in Pakistan.
The relationship between China and Pakistan
is higher than the mountains, deeper than the ocean, and sweeter than honey.
(It's almost like blood alliance)
- That's a nice analogy. - Look how happy Yuan is.
- We're really close. - It's as if they were dating.
It's more than that.
I felt the bond when I went to China to film something.
I went to film a documentary about the minority people there.
Even the mayor of the town came to greet us.
Really?
Yes. I was impressed.
Pakistan was the first country to recognize China as a country.
Yes, Pakistan was one of the first.
Pakistan and China do lots of economic exchanges as well under free trade agreement.
Yes.
We're building a new highway
that will enhance the efficiency of our trades.
We're working to maintain the close and supportive relationship.
Then on the contrary, how's the relationship between India and Pakistan?
India and Pakistan...
(Uhm...)
- It's pretty bad, isn't it? - It's a difficult question.
Please answer.
Pakistan was a part of the British Indian Empire.
After the independence, Muslims and non-Muslims separated.
Muslims moved to current Pakistan land.
And Hindus remained in India. Indians are mostly Hindus.
Tell us about Kashmir conflict, please.
Kashmir is the region that's connected to both India and Pakistan.
95% of people in Kashmir are Muslims.
We gave them a choice. They could choose to join either Pakistan or India.
They said they'd become a part of Pakistan.
That's when India attacked.
The massacre resulted in 70,000 Muslim victims.
Yes, 70,000 deaths.
The conflict has gotten stabilized a bit. It's getting better.
But that's conflict between countries. People as individuals do not feel that way.
We're just people.
So it's like this.
In the towns on the frontier,
they conduct a flag raising ceremony twice, along with a parade.
Soldiers kind of curse each other out.
And people cheer for their country's soldiers.
Pakistanis on one side and Indians on the other side, we cheer and jeer, like in a game.
We're friendly.
- Ali used to live near India. - That's real friendly.
You must have seen that a lot.
I did.
- Is it dangerous? - Not at all.
- Is it like an event? - Yes, that's it.
- Like a game? - Exactly.
We do that all the time, but people from other ares think of it as an event.
There are seats for the audience.
It's a culture.
(I see)
It's been said that
there's a room for improvement in women's rights issues in Pakistan.
The issue's gaining world-wide attention.
I heard that a young girl, a very young girl, was shot
while protesting for women's rights to education and others.
Can you tell us about it?
She is-- You don't know her? Her name is Malala Yousafzai.
- Malala? - Malala.
You know she's the youngest Nobel Prize laureate.
What happened to her is a true miracle.
She was shot by the Taliban on her way to school.
She was shot in her shoulder, head,
and one bullet went through her.
Since her miraculous recovery,
she's been working diligently to promote human rights all around the world.
She's one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World.
- She's still working as an activist? - Yes.
Was there a ban on girls' education?
Yes, there was, but--
- There was an edict that prohibited girls? - Yes.
And Malala opposed to it.
- It's different in each region, right? - Yes, it differs.
Some changed, but others, usually poor rural areas, still have women's rights issue.
What about young people? Do they think more progressively?
Some young people are conservative whereas others not.
It depends on the person.
But I think that an older generation, like my dad's generation,
are pretty much very conservative.
I think the more conservative you are
the more you should be aware of the importance of girls' education.
Because, traditionally, women are in charge of raising children.
If women are uneducated,
they won't be able to raise their children properly.
We must protect women's rights to education for the better future of our society.
Conservative people would know the importance.
Right.
You've told many things about Pakistan so far.
How would you like for us, for people in the world, to view Pakistan?
There's a saying in Korea that you can tell ten things about someone by looking at one thing.
But I think that sometimes you can't tell ten things by looking at one.
That's how I'd like you to think of Pakistan.
People don't know much about Pakistan.
People only hear stories of terrorism and conflicts in Pakistan.
There's no positive things mentioned.
I hope people wouldn't be biased because of that.
I hope they would see us as a person to a person.
One person to another.
Alright.
We heard about Pakistan from Ali. That was so interesting!
Today's Korean representative is a very special guest.
Indeed.
You guys are in trouble.
- We all are in trouble. - Especially me.
- True. - Zhang Yuan is...
He will look like a giant squid.
I am sure you guys have heard, but
today's Korean representative is known to make anyone next to him
look like a squid. His good looks are almost selfish.
Let's welcome Mr. Jung Woo-sung.
(He has finally come to Non-Summit Meeting)
(Jung Woo-sung: 43 years old. Actor)
Let's welcome Mr. Jung Woo-sung.
(He has finally come to Non-Summit Meeting)
(Jung Woo-sung: 43 years old. Actor)
(He's shockingly good looking)
(No male guest representative has drawn such response)
Is he real? Is he a human being?
(A man of godlike beauty)
He's like Alpha Go. He's too perfect.
(His beauty is beyond human)
Hello, everyone. Nice to meet you.
(Everyone sits down)
Please raise your hand if you don't know who he is.
No one? Everyone knows him?
- No one? - It's 100%.
Everyone knows him. Incredible.
- I think this is first time. - Please be honest.
I've seen him in a commercial.
The one that everyone knows?
We've all seen him in the beer commercial.
This is a commercial model, Jung Woo-sung. Nice to meet you.
(He's witty)
Please introduce yourself.
Hi guys, my name is Jung Woo-sung and I am an actor.
Welcome.
I saw your movie, "There is an eraser in my head."
It's called "A Moment to Remember."
(Guillaume shows off his charming silliness)
Oh, yeah. That was the title. (Embarrassed)
- Maybe you have an eraser in your head. - I think so.
(Poor young man)
For me, I personally liked--
the one where my Woo-sung was--
My Woo-sung?
I want him to think of me as a friend.
(He turns his head)
- He's trying to be friends with him. - Sam's super social.
Why are you so quiet, Yuan?
I hate my seat.
Are you intentionally sitting far from him?
Yes, correct.
(Come here)
Wow, he touched me.
(He's not going to change his jacket for a long time)
That's our fake Jung Woo-sung.
He's our Norwegian Jung Woo-sung.
The Scandinavian Jung Woo-sung.
You're taller than him though?
I think.
You can win him in heights only.
I watched "The Warrior" when I was in junior high.
"The Warrior"?
I've admired him since junior high.
You were in junior high when you watched "The Warrior"?
Do you mean he looks older?
- You should have said you were in college. - He's quite young.
He's quite young.
(These two can't laugh)
Have you watched our show before?
I watch it every now and then. It's a very popular show.
I watch it quite often.
What made you want to appear on our show?
I am a UNHCR National Goodwill Ambassador.
And I thought it'd be interesting to talk about my topic.
Right.
I am sure you go to many places a lot as the UN Ambassador.
Have you been to our Gs' countries?
I went to Canada
to attend the Toronto International Film Festival for the movie,
"The Good, the Bad, the Weird."
I heard that the view of Niagara Falls from Canada side is more spectacular.
Yes, even people from the U.S come to our side to look at it.
- Must you emphasize it? - That's the only thing they can brag.
(Yeah right)
I went to Egypt a long time ago
to shoot Giordano commercial with Jun Ji-hyeon.
There was this huge Giordano store at Gangnam station.
And how do you even know that?
I lived in that area when I first came to Korea.
Didn't you live there when New York Bakery was at the station?
Yeah, when Tower Record was there.
The Giordano store came in after Tower Record.
Yeah, Tower Record was there.
Shouldn't he be considered Korean if he knows Tower Record?
(An old Korean man)
You're filming a new movie, right? You're filming in Busan?
- Right. - What movie is it?
It's called "The King," and directed by Han Jae-rim,
starring Jo In-sung, Bae Sung-woo, and Kim Ah-joong.
- You and Jo In-sung are in the same movie? - Yes.
Guys won't want to watch this movie.
The most good-looking men in Korea.
What's this movie about?
It's a satire of political corruption.
Woo-sung has worked with each of us in the past.
He wrote a comment on us.
Jun Hyun-moo is wily.
Sung Si-kyung is uppity.
- Yoo Se-yoon is ill-fated. - You're the worst.
I guess so. Why is that?
You must know what you did.
The terrorism you committed.
What did you do?
I am guessing that he's talking about
the time he came out on "The Knee-Drop Guru."
I don't think it was I who requrested--
- It was you all right. - Was it?
Did you ask him to do your baboon imitation?
(This...?)
I was curious if he'd still look good.
After I did that on the show...
Before that, I was willing to accommodate any request when I am on a show,
but after that I realized that I shouldn't be so accommodating.
- He did it, huh. - He did it very properly.
Such screen capture is known as the curse of eternal suffering.
You can't erase that.
I regretted so much. (Another victim of baboon imitation)
I met him 2 years ago at an award show held by a fashion magazine.
- That's where we met. - Men of the Year award.
Woo-sung and I were chosen as Men of the Year in 2014.
(Embarrassed)
(He's even more embarrassing today)
Unfortunately, I had to sit next to him,
which made my ugliness stand out.
I thought it was the picture was photoshopped when I saw them together.
It was obviously not a flattering picture for Hyun-moo
yet he posted it as his profile picture on social media proudly.
He took a picture with Woo-sung in the holding room earlier too.
I'm gonna post that too.
In order to show off my friendship with my big bro, Woo-sung.
Big bro? He's older than you?
(A biting remark from an aspiring show host)
- I really didn't know. - He's way older than me.
Way older?
(Many people's had their feelings hurt today)
Woo-sung is incredibly handsome, but
he also has weakness.
I heard you're terrible at taking selfies.
Someone wrote--
"Give me your face, then I'll take a better selfie."
Come and take it. I'll give it to you.
Really? I want it too.
Let me have it for 3 hours.
Carry it with you.
Can we see the pictures?
What is this.
- This is really bad. - I thought it was Yoon Jong-shin.
(Unexpected gain of Jong-shin)
He looks like Jong-shin in this. And were you taking picture of this guy here?
If I may give you a tip,
you are never supposed to look down when taking a selfie.
You always take a picture from up.
I just don't like doing this.
I just hate doing this and that to take a picture.
(They are impressed,)
(Then they are angry that he looks good no matter what)
- He knows he's super handsome. - No, I don't.
Yeah, I know. What are you gonna do about it?
(We all know, Mr. Jung)
You feel awkward taking selfies.
It's embarrassing.
I understand.
I do try to post some selfies to connect with my fans.
- I just want to get it done with quickly. - You're worried someone might see.
It's embarrassing.
- I just hate all this-- - Let's try together.
(He just barges in and demands his selfie)
(Guys in this row is getting a windfall, thanks to Yuan)
You are good at taking selfies.
I don't feel awkward when I take it with other people.
What do you think you're doing, Yuan?
- We're in the middle of the show. - I need to post it later.
Send me the photo later.
You also appeared on JTBC News Room.
He did, with Sohn Suk-hee.
Many people reacted to your comment that Sohn Suk-hee's handsome.
I've always wanted to meet you.
You're handsome.
(Frozen)
(Flustered)
I always thought that way.
There's this aura that people with great mind exude.
Can you make a comment on us that will bring attention?
You're handsome.
Don't make it too obvious that you don't mean it.
You say that often, don't you?
- Right? - It's like let's have a meal soon.
Why don't you tell him what you want to hear?
I know you want something.
You're better than Sohn Suk-hee.
Something that will have people talk.
Your impression changed a lot.
Really?
You seem very relaxed now.
Are you saying I've become fat?
How about Si-kyung?
- Si-kyung is... - He's despicable?
It's going to have people talk all right.
It surely will.
I think Si-kyung also has become...
- more relaxed. - I've become old.
What about me? How have I changed?
We met 3, 4 years ago.
When you made him imitate baboon?
Can you do this?
You've become more similar to baboons.
People are going to talk about this.
Yoo Se-yoon is becoming a baboon.
I was very nervous while the two look at each other.
(I was afraid Woo-sung will fall for it again)
(He's so funny)
Now let us begin the 98th Non Summit Meeting.
Woo-sung, please read your topic for today.
Hello, I am Jung Woo-sung, and I am an actor and National Goodwill Ambassador of UN.
Welcome.
It's been three years since I've become an ambassador.
What I noticed while working as an ambassador is that
Koreans have less understanding of the refugee problem than other countries' citizens.
Even my acquaintances, who know that I am working as an ambassador,
do not ask about my job or bring about the refugee issues.
Every person's help counts in the refugee crisis.
I know that I, as the ambassador, should take an initiative in raising awareness,
but I feel that I can’t force people to care about it
and do not bring up the issue first.
I don't go out of my way to let people know about the refugee crisis,
am I abnormal?
I'd like to propose this agenda for a debate.
Woo-sung, you're now the Goodwill Ambassador for the UNHCR.
How did you get interested in the refugee crisis?
I'd been interested in many social issues before that but mostly only in thoughts.
I thought I should get involved,
but knowing that such position comes with enormous responsibility
made me hesitant when organizations approached me.
I thought that I shouldn't postpone the chance to actually do some good deeds
any longer and began to get involved.
Aren't you the only Asian Goodwill Ambassador for UNHCR?
I don't think I am the only Asian. I am one of the 11 UNHCR Goodwill Ambassadors.
Oh, there are only 11 in the world?
(Now there are about 20 Goodwill Ambassadors)
(active in different conflict zones in the world)
Why are there 11?
Is it like IOI?
(Earth Village Project 11 out of 6 billion)
Are there different parts?
Do you have the rapper part?
Leader?
I think the leader of Goodwill Ambassadors would be Angelina Jollie.
She has been active for more than 16 years now.
She's done and still doing great jobs across the globe.
She's earned the title of UNHCR Special Envoy.
Currently we face the bleak reality of ongoing terrorism and Syrian war.
They expect that by the end of this year there will be about 15 million refugees.
Despite the rise in number of refugees, countries around the world
lack both interest and adequate policies.
Today, we will have a debate on the refugee crisis with Mr. Jung Woo-sung.
Today's agenda is "I don't go out of my way to raise awareness on the refugee crisis.
Am I abnormal?" Let's begin the debate.
Please press the button if you think it's abnormal not to raise awareness.
One, two, three, please press the button.
We have six Gs who think it's abnormal.
I quite don't understand that why you think you'd be forcing people.
If you tell them they must do anything to help, that's like a demand.
But if you're simply letting them know that such problem exists and explain about it,
then you're not really forcing them to do good things.
It's just a suggestion.
When I meet someone in a social setting, at a personal level,
I can't bring up the issue out of concern that I might be pressuring them
since we all have different values and definition of good deeds,
I can't expect them to do what I do on the basis that I am doing it.
If someone else brings up the issue first and ask me what I do there,
then I tell them about it in details.
If I call up Si-kyung and ask him to have dinner with me,
and be like, hey I'm working as the UN Goodwill Ambassador,
did you know that?
I am gonna get indigestion.
How..how much do you need?
Just text me your account number.
I have an appointment, so...
I go, let's hang out soon, Se-yoon.
And he'd be like, hey, can you do the baboon imitation for me?
and what is it that you're doing at the UN?
If I ask first.
I'm interested in it. Can you tell me about it?
If someone asks like that, then I can tell them all about it.
I understand how Woo-sung feels.
I think talking about it too much can cause unintended negative effect.
Considering Korea's situation,
where all the neighbor countries are generally politically stable,
it might be harder for Koreans to grasp the reality of the refugee crisis.
Germany has been letting refugees in since 1990.
Since the Kosovo incident.
People have become more aware of the seriousness
of the problem over the years.
But as Woo-sung explained,
just telling them to care more when they don't feel the problem at heart
might turn people off and drive them away.
Because the awareness is not there.
They might not feel it now, but the crisis seems like it will last for a long time.
There will be more refugees.
And they will eventually come to Korea.
Therefore--
even though it doesn't feel real to them yet,
we have to raise awareness and start educate people now
so they can be ready to accept refugees when they come.
Absolutely true.
UNHCR was created temporarily to cope with the refugees begotten by the World War II.
They believe that it will be dissolved once the war is over.
But even after that, there have been so many wars around the world.
(The number of refugees is the highest since WWII)
The refugee crisis is becoming worse.
You said there are about 15 million refugees.
But if you count asylum seekers and IDPS, the number is close to 60 million.
If that's the case, shouldn't we try harder to get others involved
and to raise awareness in a social setting?
Just accept that it's inevitable that someone will feel uncomfortable by this topic.
If we shy away from talking about it just because we want to avoid awkwardness,
then we can never raise awareness.
But we have to consider Sung-woo's situation.
Who's Sung-woo?
Did he call him Sung-woo?
His name is Woo-sung, not Sung-woo. (Sorry)
He looks so nervous.
(Woo-sung has an imposing aura about him)
He's a public figurative.
Every word he says can have a lasting impact.
You mean he's a public figure. (Correcting him)
Yes, that's it. So there must be a situation where he can't talk freely.
All right, let me ask you this then.
When Leonardo DiCaprio won the Oscar,
he talked about the environmental issue during his speech.
The reason the environmental talks are different from the refugees talks
is that the refugee crisis is caused by certain countries or governments.
- which means that-- - You mean it has political context?
Yes, so it can cause a lot of controversies. He has to be cautious.
Because he's a public figure.
- He's not an ordinary citizen so-- - Yuan.
You look super ordinary today.
(Yuan's ordinary handsomeness is standing out today)
When I come back from missions,
only things my friends say to me are like, "you must be tired."
That's it.
Because everyone feels differently about this issue.
And some people can't really afford to worry about others.
My hope is that
one day people will take one step further and ask me how it was
even if it's just two friends talking about it.
I am sure that your appearance on this show today will make a positive change.
When we surveyed people involved in helping the refugee crisis,
they say that people ask them back why they should help foreigners
when there are already lots of Koreans in needs.
For those, I think we should ask the most fundamental question to Woo-sung.
Why should we help refugees?
I was flustered when someone asked me that question the first time.
So many people are having a hard time in our country too.
What I can tell you is that we have people
who need our help, and among them are refugees.
We can't say that refugees are our priority or we have to help refugees only.
This year too, as did last year, we are having a serious refugee crisis.
But circumstances have changed,
due to an increase in terrorism.
Even the countries that used to welcome refugees have turned against them.
The refugee crisis is worsening as anti-refugee sentiment spreads.
I want to hear about Germany. They used to be very accepting.
You're right. Only last year, Merkel said we can solve the refugee problem.
She said the influx of refugees can be an opportunity for Europe to grow.
And she said that Germany is strong enough to figure things out.
But now the policy has been changed, mostly for the two reasons.
First reason is that German infrastructure is under pressure.
We have almost a million migrants as of now.
And there was a horrible incident in my hometown Cologne.
At the Cologne station, there happened many cases of sexual assault
that targeted women who passed by the station.
Later it was found that the criminals were not refugees
but immigrants, mostly from North Africa.
But the general sentiment is that people from those countries are doing harm in Germany.
In Italy too, anti-refugee sentiment is rising since the terrorist attack.
So the government created a campaign to combat against such sentiment.
The title of the campaign is: Who's the person receiving the help?
And the campaign posters feature important figures in Europe history.
For example, there is Dante, the Italian poet.
Dante Alighieri.
Albert Einstein.
Also, Chopin. The pianist.
They were all refugees actually.
They all fled their home countries for different reasons.
So they are saying that it might be difficult in a short term,
but in the long run, both sides can benefit from it.
I think Daniel is being way too humble. He should be proud of it.
Canada has promised to admit 25,000 refugees by the end of 2015,
and afterwards promised to admit 10,000 more.
There's a website that shows how many refugees each city took in.
But still, Canada admitted only 3% of what Germany admitted.
Canada issued green card to 57,000 refugees.
If you compare with the U.S,
the U.S admitted only 1,200 refugees since the Syrian conflict.
When they discuss the refugee crisis in the U.S,
they don't really talk about it but use it to advance their political agenda.
Because we have the election coming up soon.
When the Paris attacks happened,
it was found that one of the terrorists came into France through the refugee route,
and Republicans used that as a leverage to strengthen their argument.
One of the republicans running for the election actually said that
the U.S should accept only Christians and banned Muslims from entering.
- It wasn't Trump who said that? - I thought it was Trump.
Trump has another argument, which is very similar to Cruz's.
He's talking about sending back the refugees who are in the U.S.
He said Syrian refugees can be ISIS members.
(Unbelievable)
President Obama criticized Trump's such remarks very strongly.
He said that's not an American way.
Because the refugee crisis is intricately woven with civil wars
and political relationships among different countries and governments,
we have to understand that each country has their own unique position in this matter.
We have to be careful when discussing the matter.
Recently, one of the Syrian refugees in Korea said this.
"Being accepted as a refugee in Korea is God's work."
It's that difficult to live in Korea as refugees.
Woo-sung, how's Korea's refugee policy at the moment?
Korea legislated for the process for refugee for the first time in 1993.
From 1994 to March this year,
16,979 refugees sought asylum in Korea.
Among them, only about 600 was granted the refugee status.
It's still lacking a lot.
But in 2013, the Korean government introduced the new Refugee Act.
In some way, they're trying hard to educate and improve the public perception of refugees.
In order for people to accept refugees with open mind, incidents like this should never happen.
There're brokers who are using a loophole in the system to sneak in illegal immigrants.
Because of people like this, real refugees in need of help are being harmed.
Are there other incidents like this one?
There's a serious issue in Germany.
There have been cases of missing refugee children.
- Missing? - Yes, it is--
involved with human trafficking.
About 6,000 children have been reported missing in Germany.
About 550 of them are under the age of 14.
There are about 95,000 children who have come to Europe alone
separated from their families.
- That many? - Yes.
Those children have no guardians and can't speak the language.
which makes them a vulnerable target of the traffickers.
Even more serious problem is that--
because there is no adequate system that registers refugees
the problem is expected to get worse over the years.
It's not a problem of Germany only. In Italy, it's said about 5,000 children are missing.
And in Spain, about 1,000 children are missing.
I sincerely hope that they will soon find a way to combat this problem.
That's a really serious problem.
Pope Francis recently visited the refugee camp in Lesbos in Greece.
He received a lot of gifts and paintings from the children there.
One of the paintings show a little girl
who's looking out from the fence.
It's heartbreaking.
In another painting, the child drew the sun,
but the sun is crying instead of smiling.
After Pope Francis saw that,
he officially called for world action to help the suffering children.
They fled their home to find freedom but couldn't find any freedom here either.
They don't even have adequate food or clothes.
I think Pope Francis reminded people of the inhumaneness of the refugee situation.
I remember a Somalian woman living as a refugee in a city in Nepal.
Her father hired a broker to help her and her sister escape.
And the broker sold the sisters to the traffickers.
She was sexually assaulted,
and was separated from her sister.
There are heinous criminals who take advantage
of vulnerable people for their personal gain.
I'm suddenly reminded of her now.
There's a politician named Sylvi Listhaug, a minister, in Norway,
and she went to the island of Lesbos,
saying that she'd try to feel how it is to be a refugee coming on the boat,
and jumped into the sea.
She wanted to experience a refugee's perspective.
But she went in, fully donned in a survival suit and behaved as if she were playing.
What the heck is that?
Afterwards, she was saying it was a good experience and such.
That was such a wrong attitude to take.
I was very ashamed when I saw that article.
Speaking of the Island of Lesbos,
Greece only had about 7,000 refugees before 2015.
The number is increasing by a lot since the Syrian conflict.
In Lesbos, there are many people
volunteering to help and protect the refugees arrived on boats.
The residents of Lesbos, the volunteers, are nominated for Nobel Peace Prize.
They're all volunteers.
Greece is taking a lot of loss to do this, actually.
Since the economic crisis, Greece's income largely depends on tourism.
They're giving that up.
They gave that up and continued to admit refugees.
The number of tourists dropped almost 30% because of that.
But we keep taking them in.
They are like angels.
In order to go to Germany or northern European countries,
refugees must go through a country named Macedonia.
Macedonia’s refusing to let refugees enter, so refugees in Greece are stuck there.
So in a city called Lefkada,
which used to have about the population size of 550,
now has about 10,000 people there, all refugees.
My parents went there.
They sent me some pictures to show how serious it is. It's devastating.
People perceive refugees as a burden.
In the U.S, the refugee crisis is being used by each party for their particular political agenda.
So Washington Post published an article
that reported that taking in refugees is not a loss but a worthy investment.
There was an engineer and CEO named Andrew Grove, who
He used to be a refugee from Hungary but later developed integrated circuits,
which would lead to the development of cellphones we use now.
There are many cases like that.
Excuse me, but is it always this serious here?
(Today's topic is a difficult one)
Should we talk about something else for a while?
How about you do the imitation of a baboon?
Look up to the sky.
(Hesitant)
(The creator of a baboon imitation tried to induce his participation)
Although I am working as a Goodwill Ambassador now
but I can become violent in this situation.
I surrender.
(His painful memories came back to him)
(Voting on the spot)
Countries have different opinions in regards to the economic impact of admitting refugees.
Let's vote. Admitting refugees will help the country's economic growth. Yes or no.
If you think it will help, please raise your hand.
One, two, three.
(It helps: 5 vs. It doesn't help: 7)
Of course, it would strain the economy in the beginning.
Canada admitted 60,000 Vietnam refugees in 1979.
Of course, it's hard for them to find a job at first, because of the language issue.
But according to the survey done ten years later
the unemployment rate among the refugees was lower
than that of ordinary Canadians.
However, if there is no infrastructure that can support the new population
they can't really benefit the country.
For example, when Italy took in lots of refugees from Rwanda,
we built the system to support them and gave them lots of benefits.
And since then, Italy benefited from the Rwanda refugees.
They found jobs and contributed to economy.
But right now, there are way too many refugees.
Italy has no infra to support them. It's a total chaos now.
Egypt had a completely opposite result.
I think refugees created lots of benefits to Egypt right from the start.
Syrians are very business savvy,
so they start their own business. And what I found most interesting is
they go to places that are like wasteland and develop the place
so that new towns and neighborhoods are being created.
The Capital of Syria is Damascus, and now there's a little Damascus in Egypt.
Their businesses thrive and some of them became millionaires.
They worked so hard to make it in a new country.
Why do I see so many hands in the air?
- Woo-sung was looking at them. - Are we in class?
I just realized that I am supposed to raise a hand.
(Like this)
I was waiting for chance to cut in.
I do think that we should help refugees find jobs and start a business.
And also we should provide education so that they can adjust.
However, in Norway, we spend about 140,000 dollars
for one person over the course of five years.
There are about 200,000 refugees in Norway.
Norway has oil fund that we planned to use when all the oil has been used up.
But because of massive influx of refugees, we are using the money from that fund.
I guess it could be an investment but am not sure if it will benefit.
I think there will be too much detrimental effect if we don't help them.
In case of Syria, with the war going on, people have to go somewhere, right?
Because they are under danger,
it's possible in a long term they'll have no choice but join terrorist organizations.
And when they are put in a place without adequate medical facilities
and become exposed to contagious diseases like Ebola,
it will someday come back to us as our problem.
Therefore, when you think long term, we must help them,
and we will benefit from helping them.
I can't relate to what Tyler says about thinking long term.
I'm in my 30s,
Hyun-moo's in his 40s. If someone asks you to pay lots of tax now
and tell you that you'll get benefits 10, or 20 years later,
would you like that?
- No, right? - I'm for some reason offended.
- Right? - Why am I offended?
If I had to endure hardships for 20 years for the sake of foreigners, I wouldn't be happy.
So it'd be better to assist countries with capacity for refugees
than straining the country's economy to admit more refugees.
I think that's a better solution.
Help the countries that can take in refugees .
(Glance)
Carlos!
(Goodness)
(Love you, Hyun-moo)
(Me, too)
(Someoen's here too) (Start, Carlos)
He's knocking on the debate door.
Sorry about that.
I'm at a loss for word by this feeling of deprivation.
I bet he never felt this way before.
All the economists say the same thing.
We must take them in and provide education. Then they will benefit the economy.
I think it'll help a lot if they start their own business.
- Start their own business? - Sure.
- What kind of business? - Are we at a business conference?
They can open up a store.
Maybe they can bake Syrian bread at home and sell.
(We are not sure about that)
Syrian hangover soup.
They can make Syrian snacks and street foods.
(Talking about food makes Guillaume happy)
Because they are good at doing business
and have the motivation to make ends meet,
so they will prosper and thrive.
(Rowdy)
(The battle to take the chance to talk is on again)
I think we can't say it's beneficial or not.
Both sides have a valid argument.
In case of Egypt, because of the geographical proximity,
there isn't a big language barrier.
They can adopt to the life in Egypt very fast.
So they can contribute to society and become a part of it.
However, they will need time to learn the language in countries like Canada or Norway.
From those countries' perspective, it is a long term investment.
So are you saying that it will benefit the country's economy or not?
In some countries, yes, but in some others, no.
- How about us? - Us?
Korea.
I think there can be many benefits.
All right, beneficial it is.
It has to be either this or that in variety shows.
- So let's say it helps. - It does help.
Since my bro Woo-sung says so, I will change my position to it helps.
Since when he's your bro?
It depends on the country's situation.
In South Sudan, there are lots of Chinese factories and businesses.
And China knows that they will gain tremendous benefits when South Sudan develops.
There was a serious war in Liberia.
And many refugees came to Ghana.
We gave them lots of benefits and support.
But because they got those benefits so easily, they lack the motivation to work hard.
When the government of Ghana gave them a choice to either stay in Ghana
or go back to Liberia,
but many of them chose to stay because of those benefits.
Ghana people work really hard.
It's too much of burden for Ghana when we have to lose money
on supporting them.
In Ghana, pardon--
- Sam? - Sam Okyere.
You don't know our names?
I couldn't remember his last name.
The most heartbreaking thing I witness ed in Lebanon is--
There was a mother in her 30s with five children.
Her husband was killed by bombing a year ago.
She has to raise 5 children by herself.
THe children grew up
and began to realize that their mother lacks the ability to financially support them.
And they begin to ignore the mother.
The don't expect anything from them.
It's like, "what can you do for us? we get everything from the UN organization."
The mother's devastated.
She feels there is no place for her.
The mother wants to have a job, no matter how insignificant it is,
and be able to support her children.
It's a misunderstanding. Aren't refugees taking advantage of benefits?
That's not true at all.
I have a question.
Why is it that the world as a whole isn't trying to solve
the fundamental cause of this crisis but just patching up the damage?
- What is so ironic is that-- - Because the--
Because the number of refugees is only growing.
With all these wars going on, which country can take in all these--
The most ironic thing is that--
Refugees do not want to settle in a foreign country.
They want to go back to their own countries that are at peace.
But in order to find that peace, they need to solve a religion conflict,
a race conflict, it won't be easy.
These are the problems we all have.
That's why we have to look at this from a humanitarian perspective.
When I go to such war zones, I become dumbfounded.
It's so ironic.
Why are they fighting?
Why do we have religion? It's for love.
Yet we kill others because they are in a different faction.
Because they speak different language.
Because they are of different race.
He brought up a very important issue.
We must love one another.
(Woo-sung's love is undeniable)
Prze... Prze... Przemysław, I love you.
It's difficult to solve the fundamental problem.
You're not mad at Przemysław, are you?
No.
I think he's upset.
I'm glad.
I'm really glad that
Przemysław gave us a chance to talk about the essential problem.
Were you scared?
My hands are shaking.
(I love you)
Whether to admit refugees or not is an issue but
it's also important to develop a program that can assist refugees' adjustment.
Please share your country's program and benefits available to refugees.
Canada.
We provide health care, language education, and housing until they find their own.
And they receive some money upon arrival.
They get about 2060 Canadian dollars.
And they can get up to $25,000 a year.
And some more if they have babies.
Minister Trudeau established a budget for Syrian refugees.
The budget is about 678,000,000 Canadian dollars, so it should help a lot.
Okay.
I'd like to tell you about ordinary citizens' participation in Germany.
According to statistics, one out of ten Germans are volunteering to help refugees.
That's about 8,000,000 people.
And out of 25,000 Red Cross members,
there are about 20,000 people helping them, not professionally but as an individual.
Refugees must apply for the refugee status when they arrive in Norway.
But even before the status is granted,
they get a work permit.
That's wonderful.
And when their status is granted, they get about 2000 dollars a month for two years.
And the government provide rent for five years.
They also provide education on Norway language and culture.
This is all good, but the problem is that the benefits in Norway are much better
than the ones in Denmark or Sweden.
Refugees are aware of the fact and are flooding into Norway.
So the government is considering reducing the benefits to the level of other countries nearby.
They can't live in Norway if they can't work. The cost of living is way too high.
Some people argue that countries offer a similar level of benefits
in order to prevent overcrowding of refugees in some countries.
Some countries offer a lot of benefits whereas others offer almost none.
We heard Norway example. They think Scandinavian countries should offer similar benefits.
I want to know what you guys think.
Every country should offer similar benefits.
One, two, three.
(It has to be on the same level: 4 vs. It should be different 8)
The refugee problem is an international problem,
so an international organization should intervene.
I think they should set the rule that every country must follow.
There's an agreement made by UNHCR.
In terms of numbers of refugees,
I think it should be divided proportionately to the number of population.
There are about 193 countries in UN.
There will be problems if we divide everything equally among these countries.
For instance, Greece has a serious unemployment problem.
If we send 2,000,000 refugees there, they won't find a job.
On the contrary, in Germany, we don't have enough force because of aging population.
So it will be beneficial for us to receive refugees.
I think it'll be better for countries to negotiate and work together.
I think it's more difficult for countries to work together for this cause.
There will be no end if countries were to enter negotiations.
The benefits that have to be offered by each countries are this, in my opinion.
Health care and--
Greece's economy is bad, how would they match up to the benefits offered by Germany?
(Agitated all of sudden)
They can take less refugees.
That means it's not going to be similar.
How will they make a living?
(The U.S enters the discussion)
We can establish standard procedures each country must adhere when they admit refugees.
This is the minimum benefit they should receive and such.
We provide a basic guideline for countries to follow.
That will make the process smoother.
However, forcing all the countries to adopt the same system can seem like
an intrusion to those countries' sovereignty.
If they mandate an offering of a health insurance, the U.S won't even listen.
That's true.
Because every country has different economic and political situation,
it's impossible to offer the same benefits.
Similar benefits.
But the basic needs should be--
(That's why I am saying)
What are you mumbling?
The question was if they should offer similar level of benefits, not the same.
The word similar can be too ambiguous.
But the similar level is--
I agree that there should be a standard.
What Alberto is saying is that--
We are providing basic benefits already.
Admitting refugees is an act of charity.
You can't force someone to donate how much, when, and to whom.
(Forced charity?)
Yuan.
Why don't you look at Woo-sung you admire and repeat what you said?
We should--
(Say it again)
That's why right now we have--
He's scary.
I forgot.
- So... - I think it'd be better if he forgot.
(An eraser in my head)
Religion is one of the main reasons
that we have refugees,
but political conflict is also a main reason. Right, Tyler?
But China also-- (He turns his head away)
Yuan doesn't listen if the other person doesn't agree with him.
(Why are they fighting...?)
You can't really say that China has no responsibility in creating a refugee problem.
- China also has interest in Africa-- - So? So!
You're right. That's why--
It's neither a charity nor duty.
(What is he talking about...)
He's having a lonely battle today as well.
Western countries must acknowledge that they did create conflict in Africa
and must take responsibilities and help refugees as atonement, not as a duty.
- I'm right. - No.
Maybe you don't think so, but we Asians feel this way.
We Asians?
All right, then I have a question for you.
In the future, climate change will worsen,
and the sea level will keep rising.
That means that there will be less land for people to live.
And it will eventually create refugees.
Then, will China apologize and take responsibilities by admitting refugees?
I don't think we can say Yuan is right or wrong.
China might have a different point of view on this topic.
(Thank You)
What's ironic is that countries that are offering help are developing countries.
And the refugee camps are set in the poor area of these countries.
- That's true. - It's like that in Turkey.
Countries should view refugee problem from a perspective
of an international world to which each and every country belongs
regardless of their particular political stance or situation.
We all should have the awareness that this is our problem.
South Korea is located on a peninsula with North Korea at the northern border.
So we don't really feel refugee problems at heart.
We want to listen to your opinion on
what specific things you can do in Korea to help refugees.
When people tell me they want to go as volunteer workers to help the refugees,
I think, oh, they don't understand what actually goes on at the site.
Because Syria, for example, it's close to the border where there's a lot of conflicts.
It can be dangerous. So I don't take anyone with me when I go.
I go alone or I go with the Korean workers at the UN refugee organization.
They say "Are you going to volunteer? I'll come with you." Although I'm thankful--
They tell you they'd build things-- Because they have no idea.
I'm really thankful.
Actually I get a lot of offers for support by supplying goods.
But the first priority is cash support.
It's the only form of support accepted.
The Korean branch of UNHCR, in 2001
began as the Tokyo office. The office in Japan opened first.
The amount of financial support from Japanese government is much larger than in Korea.
Also from corporations.
But in terms of private donations-- although the Korean office opened later--
we're ahead of them.
That's how caring and considerate for others Korean people are.
But support from corporations is quite low.
So corporations should step up.
- I'll talk about that after this. - Oh.
- Corporations... - But I have to go home after this.
Don't go. Don't.
I want to talk to you one on one.
So I guess you'll talk with him one on one.
I want to talk with Hyun-moo.
I have dinner plans.
I'll buy you dinner.
Hyun-moo's happy with the photo already.
My goal for today is achieved.
(Goal achieved)
I hope corporations could think of it as up-front
investment and not just think of their profit now.
I think they're capable of that.
- Okay. - They can do more.
All right.
It's time for our last vote.

He's very aggressively trying to promote it.
It was voted normal.
(We support Woo-sung's activities as the goodwill ambassador)
So how was it for you today?
I had a great time talking about this issue that we have
and it felt like we are one family, which felt good.
It might feel like a distant topic, but today
we learned that it is an important issue.
That's all for today.
Until the day we all become normal--
I heard you were worried the show might be to serious today for a variety show.
I'll give you the chance to sing this song.
You seem normal, but you're not, but you're like normal

He won a prize on "Korea Sings."
(Impressive)
They say nothing is free, right?
I'm sorry, are you here as a performer?

Have you watched our show?
I've seen a few episodes.
I watched every episode while I was serving in the army.
(In the army?)
I'd watch your show and all the others would watch girl groups in the next room.
(We understand)
(Episode 99: Disasters and Survival)
"I’m Scared of Accidents and Disasters" Is this abnormal?
More people are buying first aid kits and food for emergency.
It prevents hypothermia.
Do I look like a sweet potato?
(Sweet potato, LOL)
(A boxed lunch that cooks without fire)
It tastes so much better than at home.
It's the best thing when you're in the army and you're hungry.
I considered going on "Take Care of the Fridge" and you're giving me combat ration.
(For a safe world without disasters)
