It's always better when we're together,
Happy Together!
- It's good to see you again. - Hello.
It's so good to see you again.
It's nice to see you guys often after a long break.
- It's so nice. - Right?
Hyeon Gyeong appeared on many other shows,
but during the break, she wasn't on the front page less often.
- It began again. - That's right.
I was on the front page today.
She looks the prettiest on her way to work.
Did you carefully choose...
- your outfit? - I care so much about my outfit.
- You don't care about this show. - I care more about the photos.
- It's more important. - It helps her career more.
Sae Ho has become a lot more confident.
- Me? - Yes.
He used to be afraid our staff might ask him to have coffee with them.
- It's different now. - He says, "Let's have some coffee."
(He's fully confident.)
He's so confident now.
- It's like a sea change, right? - Yes.
There might be a sudden fall.
- That's possible. - What does that mean?
- Like a sharp drop in stock market, - Oh, I see.
- I didn't know what it meant. - it means a rapid fall.
I thought you two were complimenting me.
Today, we're going to meet incredible stars.
Just like Hyun Moo, the grand award winner,
- our today's guests are amazing. - That's right.
Is this lineup real?
They have such an incredible presence.
They'll stop the viewers from switching the channel.
This is undisputed and irresistible. You have to stay tuned.
Big fun guaranteed.
Look to your left. Look to your right. You'll see what I mean.
Today's theme is "The Golden, Crazy Presence".
Let's meet our today's guests now!
(The crazy presence)
My goodness.
- Hello. - This is super awesome.
- Welcome. - Hello.
- My gosh. - This is super cool.
- Hello. - You're here.
From the screen to the stage, his challenges never stop.
The success guarantee that we all trust,
the crazy romanticist, Kim Seung Woo.
(Kim Seung Woo, the crazy romanticist)
She's the master of charismatic, exceptional acting.
She has such a great presence that makes her stand out the most.
- Koh Soo Hee. - Koh Soo Hee.
It's nice to see you.
The crazy viewer rating of 43.2 percent.
She's back through the weekend drama, "My Golden Life".
The icon of first love, the innocent and cheery Jeong So Young.
Welcome.
Just like the ratings of the drama, his popularity rapidly increased.
He's walking the golden path.
The prince of dramas, Lee Tae Seung.
(Lee Tae Seung, the prince of dramas)
That was good.
Today's lineup is really amazing.
I like the heart shape on your chest.
It's so cold that my heart keeps pounding.
That's super awesome.
You're super funny.
- It's furry. - However,
- I didn't know he'd still be here. - I'm sorry.
You've already started joking when you just got here.
He's already trying to be funny.
That's not true.
Seung Woo loves variety shows more than anyone else.
- Absolutely. - He's like family to us.
From "Win Win" to "One Night Two Days",
he showed off his great presence on many popular variety shows.
On KBS variety shows, right?
Were you surprised when you heard Hyun Moo won the grand award?
That's right. I heard it from the writer during the interview.
- Did you not know before then? - No. I was busy at the year end.
Every Korean knows that.
- Every Korean knows that? - The whole country was surprised.
Was it that sensational?
I saw more news about Sae Ho being cast for "Infinite Challenge".
- Look at his face. - I'm sorry.
- I was very busy. - This is Seung Woo's way.
He speaks calmly, which makes it even more upsetting.
- Right? He has a good voice too. - It's unforgettable.
It must be a good thing for your junior announcers.
As far as I know,
- among announcers, you're... - He's the first to win the award.
That's why I wondered why you won it.
I mean, I was wondering what program you won it from.
"I Live Alone" became a big hit.
Oh, that show... I see.
Do you think I didn't make any contribution?
That's not what I meant. I just didn't know it was that popular.
- That's enough. - That's harsh.
- Please stop it. - Hyun Moo.
Seeing that you're moving up and down, you must be upset.
- It's so intense. - His face turned red.
Because he speaks in such a nice tone of voice, it's so upsetting.
It's upsetting indeed.
Seung Woo, have you received an award from a variety show?
I've won the top excellence award.
I'm an elite entertainer.
Kim Seung Woo!
(Best Rookie Award Awardee, Kim Seung Woo)
- The winner is Kim Seung Woo. - Congratulations.
(Excellence Award Awardee, Kim Seung Woo)
("I'm doomed." "I have no choice.")
The best rookie award, the excellence award,
- The excellence award. - and the top excellence award.
I quit because I didn't want to receive the grand award.
- That's why. - He's cool. He's different from us.
I quit because I didn't want to take other people's jobs.
I'll step out for some fresh air.
(It's too much for him to take in.)
(Congratulations on winning the award.)
- I wish you the best for 2018. - He hurt my feelings again.
Seung Woo is not the only one.
- Soo Hee is also here. - It's nice to see you all.
- She has a great screen presence. - That's right.
- You played many tough characters. - Tell us about her roles.
- She played the cannibal witch... - Right.
- in "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance". - That's right.
- In "Angry Mom", she played... - The tough friend.
the tough friend of Kim Hee Seon's.
She played the cafe waitress in "You're My Sunshine!"
In "The Red Shoes", she played the doctor who gets killed.
Every character is unusual.
None of your characters seems ordinary.
Because of the vibe from my face,
I was cast for many tough characters.
However, they're different from the real sides of me.
Can't you speak in your own voice?
- Speak as you do usually. - Does she speak differently?
She was talking like a voice actor.
That's how I speak on TV shows.
- That's not necessary. Just relax. - Just be yourself.
- Stop it. - What?
This isn't your talk show, "Win Win".
(He played drums and everything on "Win Win".)
- I'm sorry. - He must've missed it.
- Right. - I'm just excited to be here.
- Are you here to get a job? - Exactly.
- I want to leave a good impression. - Please help me join your show.
Also, it's the reorganization period now.
It's perfect timing.
- It keeps my heart warm. - Right.
Why did you grow a mustache?
- I'll shave it tomorrow. - Excuse me, Seung Woo.
Please stop talking.
I just want a job. This studio looks much better than before.
I told you his nickname is Nosy-pants.
- I won't be nosy today. - You're Nosy-pants.
- I understand. - He'll begin a new TV show soon.
Then shall we see how awkward...
it can get if I keep quiet?
That's enough.
(He's tired of it.)
- Don't do anything. - Okay. I won't.
- I'll stay calm. - We'll ask you questions.
It was hard to invite Seung Woo and Soo Hee,
but Tae Seung and So Young are...
- also very popular these days. - Right.
- They got ratings of 43 percent. - Exactly.
("My Golden Life")
("My Golden Life" Breaks the Record for the Highest Ratings Again)
("My Golden Life" Gets up to 45.1 Percent Per Minute)
(Through the hardships a self-made man goes through in life,)
(the drama helps people find their own happiness.)
It happened more often than now.
It's not easy these days.
It's amazing to get over 40 percent these days.
- We need some of that energy. - Absolutely.
Share the ratings with them.
Just give us two percent.
Seung Woo has a warm heart.
However, I hate it the most when he teases others like this.
- He gets on my nerves... - He's doing it again.
and makes me so upset.
- This place makes me do that. - Exactly.
Do you realize how popular your drama is?
Elementary students call me...
- by my character's name. - How?
"That's Seo Ji Tae."
It's hard to believe.
- That means you're famous. - That's right.
- In fact, - Isn't it?
when my drama got between 9 and 10 percent,
- I'm curious. How is it different? - What happened?
people on the streets said, "I think I've seen him somewhere."
- I see. - That's right.
"I think he appeared in a drama."
- How about when it got 20 percent? - In that case,
people mentioned the drama title. "I saw him from the drama."
(He's the actor from "My Golden Life".)
- And when it got 40 percent? - When it got 30 percent,
people knew my name.
- "That's Lee Tae Seung." - Right.
When it got over 40 percent, people started saying, "That's Seo Ji Tae."
Now, they call me by my character's name.
- They're immersed in the drama. - That's right.
It's great that you became popular,
but doesn't it make you uncomfortable sometimes?
- I feel embarrassed in a sauna. - Why?
In a sauna,
Sometimes I'm the first to get in the sauna,
but sometimes I walk in the sauna while others are in there.
So I sat down like this.
Then our eyes met.
(What?)
Our eyes met.
(What?)
(My gosh!)
- No way. - No way.
- It's a true story. - I'm disappointed in you.
- You exaggerated your story. - The water was hot.
You shouldn't go overboard.
No one would've done that.
Personally, I can relate to your story.
- Really? - What are you talking about?
(Sae Ho, why did you cut in there?)
My goodness.
In fact, So Young played a first love in an old drama.
She played Kim Du Han's first love in "Men of the Wild Age".
That's right. I remember that.
- Her face looks familiar. - That's her.
Yes.
(In "Men of the Wild Age", Kim Du Han...)
(couldn't keep his eyes off...)
(the young So Young.)
- Suzy is the icon of first love. - Suzy. That's right.
I want to be the icon of first love among people in their 40s.
Among people in their 40s?
They must remember her character in "Men of the Wild Age".
- I do remember your character. - I want them to remember me.
- As Suzy is the icon of first love, - Of course.
- you'll target people in their 40s. - That's correct.
I think it's a good idea to segment the market.
I heard that a lot of viewers of "My Golden Life"...
wait for scenes where So Young and Choi Gwi Hwa...
- appear together. - I heard that too.
Do you realize how popular you are?
I...
(Embarrassed)
I'm an actress on a filming set,
- but I'm a mom at home. - I see.
Since I don't go out often, I don't really feel that.
However, when I eat out,
- some people recognize me. - They would go crazy.
I give them my autographs and get some free drinks.
My husband seems so happy.
(I love you so much.)
Some people are so generous.
I didn't ask them for it, but they offered me...
asking me to come often. I'm very grateful.
I wonder about the team atmosphere.
I think the team atmosphere must have changed...
since you got over 40 percent of ratings.
(The highest rated drama that every Korean loves)
(How could the atmosphere be on the filming set?)
We've been filming the drama for five months.
It was hot when the drama began, but it's so cold now.
We could've gotten tired by now...
since we filmed as many episodes as three mini-series.
But the high ratings keeps us enthusiastic...
- and happy. - That's right.
- Shin Hye Sun came on this show. - She appeared on this show.
We invited her to Happy Together twice.
She became very successful through "My Golden Life",
- Right. - but even before then, we knew...
- Many stars became popular... - We had our eyes on her.
- through our show. - That's right.
Hyeon Gyeong is one of them. There are many others.
There's Han Bo Reum as well.
- Sae Ho too. - Sae Ho also became popular...
through Happy Together.
Now, we just have to help Seung Woo become more popular.
(Shall we make you a star?)
I'm here because of the TV program reorganization.
(He shows his ambition.)
- I'll look forward to good results. - Exactly.
(He feels embarrassed now.)
The only award I didn't win is the grand award.
You have only one to go.
- He hasn't won it yet. - That's right.
I didn't know that.
(He's looking at the others' reactions.)
You must be modest always.
- Look at Jae Seok. - I learned this from you.
Look at Jae Seok. You won it over 10 times, right?
I won it about 14 times.
(He lowers his tone of voice.)
(He seems peaceful and calm.)
Why did you change your tone of voice?
I was adjusting my mic at that moment.
It wasn't intentional. Please don't misunderstand me.
I'll tell you something else about Jae Seok.
There's a room for his trophies in his house.
(Jae Seok has a room in his house where he displays his trophies.)
- It's called Trophy Room. - My gosh.
It's called Trophy Room.
He displayed only the grand award trophies in the room.
The room keeps out the sunlight.
- Otherwise, the color will fade. - Ji Ho...
Ji Ho plays dominoes with the trophies.
He knocks them down.
(This is how the national MC's son plays.)
- That's how he learns. - That's right.
He learns he should try as hard as his dad.
- Thank you. - All right.
"My Golden Life" had...
another cause for celebrations at "KBS Drama Awards".
Cheon Ho Jin won the Grand Award.
- It was incredible. - I know.
I heard Cheon Ho Jin is prudent.
When we shoot in the studio, we have a lunch break...
after the rehearsals.
When everyone left for lunch, he stayed behind.
When I asked him why he wasn't having lunch,
he said he doesn't want to ruin his concentration.
(The class of the senior actor)
- Really? - He didn't eat.
I saw him at the read-through.
- He told me this. - What did he tell you?
"The shoot remains."
"Let's not get excited and stay prudent..."
"to show the best we can do."
He helped the actors focus.
He was on a different level.
Hyun Moo is still excited about winning the Grand Award.
It will go on until the Lunar New Year.
No, it will go on throughout the first half of the year.
The first half of the year!
I know Hyun Moo.
It will go on throughout the first half of the year.
I think it will go on until the Lunar New Year.
If we aren't careful, it will go on until Chuseok.
Chuseok!
I am happy that I won the Grand Award.
(I will be humble.)
Tae Seung, I heard it's hard...
to play a poor character for the first time.
In this drama, I play a poor character.
You used to play the department head and the director.
- A man from a rich family. - I played such roles.
I try to take on roles I haven't had.
However, this character is hard since everything is different.
When I played a rich man, I had a car.
(A luxury car)
- I had multiple suits. - You looked sharp in suits.
Now that I don't have a car, it's so cold inside the bus.
(The pain of being poor)
- It's so cold. - It's especially cold these days.
- I am always filming on the street. - That's right.
I used to have air conditioner during summer...
and heater during winter.
It's so cold to take buses and walk down the streets.
The conditions change according to the roles you play.
- That's right. - Also,
I have worn 3 suits and 1 pair of shoes...
for six months.
- The costume fee is low. - That's true.
I wear the same outfit every day.
The ties make it look different.
I learned that I don't need to buy a lot of clothes.
That's how people live.
- It's very cold these days. - Yes.
In a lot of scenes, he eats sandwiches at the park.
- His character is poor. - I know. It's heartbreaking.
I play the owner of a cafe.
- You get to stay warm. - I have air conditioner...
and heater. It's different.
When I play a rich character, the locations on the script are...
luxurious restaurant, hotel, etc.
I go to places I haven't visited.
"I didn't know about this place. This dish is delicious."
Now, I go to parks...
- and playgrounds. - He eats sandwiches at parks.
- I am always outside. - Bus stations.
It's so cold. I only get canned coffee.
It's not even regular coffee.
Canned coffee!
Since it's cold, he needs canned coffee.
Play a character in the middle class the next time.
I will play a rich man the next time.
He already has his mind set.
In winter, I will play a rich man.
- That should be the case in winter. - That's right.
- You need money in winter. - Seung Woo,
you are famous for being well-connected.
- He is incredible. - So...
I heard that you were touched...
by Kwon Sang Woo.
- What happened? - It's nothing.
I met him recently after 5 or 6 years.
We can't meet up often these days...
because we are busy raising children.
Even after 5 or 6 years, we were happy to see each other.
We talked over a glass of wine.
About 5 or 6 years ago, I was having soju with other actors.
My wife usually doesn't call me when I am out.
However, she gave me a call.
Everyone was a bit drunk.
She told me she thinks the house has been robbed.
- My goodness. - Really?
(Robbed?)
- My goodness. - That woke me up.
When I got up to leave, everyone asked, "What's wrong?"
"She thinks the house has been robbed." I was disoriented.
Sang Woo said,
- "I will go with you." - He is cool.
The two of us went together. He was so cool.
- What did he do? - We entered the house.
(Sang Woo looked around.)
(He felt something strange.)
He pushed me against the wall.
"Seung Woo, you shouldn't get hurt. Stay here."
Then he opened the door.
I didn't want Sang Woo to get hurt.
"Seung Woo, wait here."
I like playing baseball.
I had baseball bats in the garage.
He began to search the house with a baseball bat in his hands.
- He ran up the stairs. - That's incredible.
- He was so cool. - That's really cool.
He was all over the place.
Seriously.
(He guarded Seung Woo and looked for the thief.)
It turned out it was a false alarm.
The security alarm had gone off.
Inside the house were my young daughter,
wife, and aunt. Of course they were scared.
- He is so cool. - He really is.
Did you stay still when Sang Woo stopped you?
I was scared.
You must have been thankful that he stopped you.
"Don't stop me."
I watched him run around the house.
- "There he goes." - I thought to myself,
"He and I will share a deep friendship."
- He is cool. - He is reassuring.
- He is cool. - Afterwards,
we filmed "71: Into The Fire".
We drank together all the time.
- "71: Into The Fire". - So Young,
did you have an anti-fan cafe?
I didn't know about it.
I am pretty slow. I am rarely on SNS...
or internet.
When something like that comes out,
- your friends tell you. - That's right.
My friends told me that I have an anti-fan cafe.
In "Magic", I had a kiss scene with Kang Dong Won.
- I was... - That's right.
It's my last present.
I didn't know Kang Dong Won was that popular.
- I didn't know much about him. - You didn't know.
He was my co-worker.
- A co-worker. - He was my co-worker,
- nothing more. - That's right.
That's why I didn't think much about the kiss scene.
The youths who watched it swore at it.
What did they say? Do you remember anything?
"Who are you to steal my darling's lips?"
They say that.
I laughed at first, but the number of members began to increase.
- It was no joke. - Really?
- All because of a kiss? - At first, you thought,
- "There aren't many members." - There were only 10 at first.
Then the number increased.
- It must have been upsetting. - What did you do?
I had no choice but to laugh.
- I see. - I heard that...
you are very timid, So Young.
In a variety show,
you need to stand out.
I am more suited...
for supporting other people.
- I think you stand out. - Your outfit stands out a lot.
There are feathers on your top.
(Her outfit is eye-catching.)
You have more feathers than me.
You have a funny sense of humor.
Seriously.
For her role in "My Golden Life",
she made the director remember her.
How did you do that?
My manager brought me the script before the audition.
I really wanted the role.
It suited my image.
I thought I will be able to do well. I told the director...
I usually don't say this.
- "Director." - What did you say?
"A lot of scenes go back to the character in her 20s."
"Using another actress will cost a lot of money."
"I can play a woman in her 20s. Use me."
- You said that yourself. - Yes.
"I have a good image. Let's work together."
- I made my interest clear. - You told the director that...
you were the symbol of first love.
Why did you leave that part out?
You told the director that you were the symbol of first love.
That's embarrassing.
(That's embarrassing.)
Aren't you in your 20s?
I am in my 40s.
(For real?)
- Really? - Yes.
- She looks really young. - She looks really young.
I was worried despite my words.
However, the scenes where I appeared as a woman in her 20s...
were satisfactory.
You will be able to play a woman in her 20s.
At this rate, you will get another anti-fan cafe.
- It's okay. - Is it okay?
It's okay because I am satisfied with how I look.
(Confident)
I am talking about the scenes.
- I liked how I looked... - It's understandable.
- in those scenes. - I am shocked.
I learned for the first time today that...
you aren't in your 20s.
Are you married?
Yes, I am married with a child.
- How fascinating! - I can't believe...
you have a child.
There is something that makes me sad.
Whenever I worked with an actor,
I didn't see him as a man, but a co-worker.
I never felt any romantic inclinations.
I don't know why I didn't date a celebrity...
before I got married.
I am jealous of people who do that.
Your husband is an actor-turned-professor.
He must give you a critique of your performance.
- He criticizes a lot. - He is a professor.
Most people go,
"You had the emotions right. You delivered the lines this way."
He goes, "Your diction was terrible!"
He treats me like one of his students.
- One of his students. - Yes.
There are downsides.
Still, his criticism is organized and precise.
You looked very annoyed a moment ago.
- No. - You keep changing your mind.
- She is acting. - He is great.
Is it true that you give your husband a kiss...
on the day of the kiss scene?
Is it because you feel guilty?
This is the first drama I am in after I got married.
There are scenes where I hold hands and such.
I can't help but feel bad.
The shoot began at 6am that day.
I kissed my husband on the cheek and said,
"I will kiss another man today."
What did he say?
"See you later."
- You don't need to feel bad. - Why not?
He won't watch the scene.
I don't watch those scenes of my wife.
- I see. - It grates on your nerve, right?
To see your wife, Kim Nam Joo...
- I thought I would be fine. - It's not fine?
- It's not like I'm offended by it. - But the thing is...
I'm sure they understand it. It's part of acting.
- That's right. It's just acting. - You know?
- But I wouldn't look for the clips. - That's understandable.
What if places were reversed? Does she not watch love scenes you film?
She told me that she's totally fine, but she wouldn't watch the scenes.
That's how it is.
- I shouldn't believe everything. - I'm fine with everything else.
Hyeon Gyeong and Tae Seung...
- have a history. - Yes, we do.
- Really? - Come to think of it,
we shared a kiss.
"Come to think of it"?
- I haven't seen her. - She just remembered.
- I haven't seen her after the kiss. - I haven't seen him after the kiss.
- This is unbelievable. - Is that true?
- How long has it been? - I think it's been seven years.
- It's been so long. - We kissed in a drama.
I heard that she starred in it as a special guest.
- Right. - We said hello,
- kissed, and said goodbye. - Then we said goodbye.
- My gosh. - That's very awkward.
(Her cameo appearance led them to share a kiss.)
I can't believe you.
As soon as I arrived at the studio set,
I was told that we were going to film, so we said hello.
And I kissed him right away.
- She was to come onto me. - Yes, I had to make the move.
- She didn't even have lines. - Did you play another rich guy?
- Yes, he was rich. - Yes, I did.
- His character was gentle. - I owned some properties too.
(He owned properties.)
(Now, this is a nice role to play.)
Seung Woo, we are not trying to depict you negatively in any way.
But there must be stories about this.
I heard you even get upset...
- Yes? - when you're choosing lunch menu.
- No, I don't get upset. - Every little thing upsets him.
- Let me explain it. I make plans. - Please do then.
- Say that I go to play baseball. - Okay.
Then I'd have already chosen what I'm going to eat for that day.
- You know what you want for lunch. - Yes, exactly.
That day, I wanted to eat small octopus...
because it's good for my health,
but after that, the juniors talked about the menu.
They decided to eat pork belly since we had...
- small octopus the previous week. - Right.
When I came back after batting, they suggested eating pork belly.
Now, I want you to see if I sound upset or not.
- Okay, sure. - So what happened then?
I said, "I like pork belly. Go eat that."
- You are upset. - You are totally upset.
- "Go eat that"? - I said I'll go eat small octopus.
(He confirms that he was upset.)
Goodness, that's the worst. You're the worst!
- Did I sound upset? - Of course, you did.
- Did you think I was upset? - Everyone can agree to that.
- I don't fret over small things. - No, the thing is...
- I don't think that's true. - No.
I wouldn't have been upset even if they went for pork belly.
- You'd go eat octopus alone? - I'd go there alone.
- You'd go eat it alone? - That's how I've been living.
(He sounds unaffected.)
- You'd go eat it alone? - That's how I've been living.
(Someone can't laugh along the others.)
- You and he are similar. - No, you sound upset.
- I'm the same way. - You guys are so much alike.
I'm serious.
- No. - This is how we pick our menu too.
How?
I'd ask him to choose between jjajangmyeon and jjamppong.
- He'd say he wants budae jjigae. - I want budae jjigae.
Then we would ask if he's not eating with us.
He'd leave saying that he'll eat alone.
(He sounds unaffected too.)
He'd leave saying that he'll eat alone.
(Seung Woo likes Myung Soo.)
- That's cool. - Were you upset by that?
- No, I wasn't. - You weren't upset. Exactly.
Wait. You said you are grateful to Myung Soo.
- I wouldn't say I am grateful. - I don't know what this is about.
Myung Soo's wife and my wife are in the same parents' club.
- I didn't know. - Myung Soo's wife said,
"My husband doesn't like to talk about other people,"
"but Myung Soo spoke kindly of Seung Woo."
That's what I heard,
but the thing is that we haven't worked together a lot.
Then I remembered that it must've been around that time.
- When? - When we had dinner after work.
- I remember that day. - He was about to pay,
but I stopped him and I paid for the meal.
I think he might have mentioned that I was nice to his wife.
- I wondered if that was it. - You're correct.
I'm right, aren't I?
There are a few types of people Myung Soo like.
He likes people who stop him from paying.
Right. I was going to pay since I was older.
Myung Soo offered to pay, but I paid for the meal after stopping him.
- He probably said that after this. - But it wasn't an empty offer.
- He pushed me aside. - Okay.
I couldn't surpass his strength.
He pushed me hard. He really meant what he said.
- You didn't just back away? - No, I didn't.
- Thank you. I enjoyed the meal. - Right.
- Thank you for your kind words. - My pleasure.
I also heard Tae Seung is easily affected by others just as much.
You tried harder to play baseball due to Seung Woo? Please elaborate.
You were a former baseball player though.
I gave up on baseball because of multiple injuries.
I injured my shoulders, elbows, and pelvis.
- He used to play baseball. - That's right.
- He was on the national team. - Right, right.
When I joined his baseball team, his expectations were so high.
- The celebrity baseball team. - But still. He was a professional.
He wanted to see how good I was.
When I heard he used to play baseball on the national team,
but he became a film actor after suffering through many injuries.
I told the others to bring him.
So the junior members went to him and invited him to the team.
- He joined our team. - He's the star player of the team.
I thought...
- I'd be decent given my experience, - That's right.
but my pitching wasn't as fast as I wanted it to be.
- Really? - I was surprised.
I questioned if he was a former baseball player.
- Seriously? - Yes.
But I couldn't tell that to his face.
I said, "Are you sure you were a professional?"
- But then I... - Isn't that the same thing?
Hearing that stressed me out because I pitched the best I could.
So after I joined the team, I started to rethink about baseball,
- instead of my projects. - Poor Tae Seung.
- Even more than when you played? - I had physical therapies too.
- He did have therapies. - I had physical therapies too.
(This actor by trade got in shape.)
You had physical therapies to play in the celebrity baseball team?
I did this exercise called tubing where I had to pull the rubber.
I applied lotion at home and worked out too.
Even at the gym, I didn't work out to improve my physique.
I did exercises to increase my speed.
- Exercises to strengthen shoulders. - I exercised my lower body.
I practiced pitching at night in front of the mirror.
If you had done that when you played baseball, you could've overcome it.
That's my point. Why did I figure that out so late?
(He's full of regret.)
Why couldn't I have done it when I played baseball?
His pitch is faster than the one when he was a baseball player.
After I quit, I could throw a ball at 135 kilometers per second.
(He's faster than Yoo Hee Kwan.)
- That's incredibly fast. - My gosh, it's faster than 135?
- I thought about getting tested. - To go back to baseball?
- Seriously. - He really thought about that.
Yes, I did.
You are handsome, but on top of your looks, you played baseball too.
I heard you had your own fan club.
- When he played baseball? - I'm sure girls talked about you.
- Didn't I tell you? - No, I had no idea.
- His name was Lee Sung Deok. - Right.
- That's your real name? - Sung Deok?
- Sung Deok? - Why did you bring that up?
It's from his online profile.
He's such a nuisance.
- Hey, hey. - He's such a nuisance.
(He earns a new character, the nuisance.)
- Hey, hold on a second. - If he's as annoying as this today,
the nickname, Nuisance, fits him better than his old one, Nosy-pants.
- Mr. Nuisance Kim. - Right.
- Soo Hee, you must be careful. - I'm sorry, Seung Woo.
You are performing...
- in a play together, right? - Yes.
Please tell us about the roles. I'm curious.
- Do you know the film, "Misery"? - Yes, the old film?
- With Kathy Bates? - That's right.
- Is that the role you're playing? - You turned it into a play.
- The character lies in a bed... - That's the one.
- with a broken leg, doesn't he? - That sounds like a good play.
The crew called me about the role. They only asked about my schedule.
When I asked about the play, they said it was "Misery".
Who else could play the role except myself?
- Gosh, she's certainly confident. - Really?
Perhaps, it's because we know it's "Misery",
- I thought she was acting. - she was just like her character.
- She's already scaring us. - Exactly.
- When I lie down during rehearsals, - She's the perfect match.
- She fits the role perfectly. - I don't have to act scared.
She already won.
I got to know Nam Joo first, but when Seung Woo and I first met,
he pretended that we were close.
"Ms. Koh, it's your first time doing a play, isn't it?"
"Let's do our best." This is what he said to me.
But it's been 20 years since I've been acting in theater.
(The sense of strong friendship...)
(is destroyed.)
- How could he say that? - Seriously?
- That was a mistake on your part. - My gosh.
When we were saying goodbye,
he apologized to me.
- He said he was truly sorry. - It was a big mistake.
She won every important award in theater.
(She's been acting for 20 years.)
You know how in theater, people do projects with their own troupe?
- She has the longest member there. - My gosh.
- I was incredibly sorry. - You made a big mistake.
- It was massive. - You didn't mean to though.
At the end when the meeting was over,
I apologized to her.
When did you start acting then?
- I didn't plan to be an actress. - I see.
I had to get a job when Korea underwent the major economic crisis.
- It must be around 1997 and 1998. - That was too soon.
I was ready to work for a job as long as I got paid for it.
Even when I had gotten a job, I didn't get paid...
- since the economy was bad. - Really?
A friend of mine asked me if...
I wanted to do a part-time job putting up posters for plays.
- It takes a long time if you do it 1 by 1. - Yes, it does.
- So what did you do? - I put the tapes here while moving.
I'd put it up like this.
(Looking experienced and skillful)
- I used green tapes at that time. - Right.
- So my hand got chapped. - Really?
- I see. - You put tapes on your hand.
- That's possible. - She started from the bottom,
but you asked her if it was her first play.
- That's what Seung Woo said. - How could he say that to her?
- She started from the bottom. - Right.
I told you I apologized for that.
I really did. I officially apologized for it.
- I did. I even sent a long text. - Good job. Well done.
So did the director see you?
I was doing the part-time job, and the director of the play...
told me that I might be able to make something of myself.
After that, the director offered me the leading role for the next play.
- The leading role? - The leading role? Out of the blue?
- But you never acted before. - No.
I would act however I wanted since I didn't have any experiences.
- You didn't hold back. - Right.
So was the play successful after you took the leading role?
When we put on the play, it stirred up a sensation.
- What was the play? - What is it called?
It's called, "Ode to Youth".
(He pretends to know it.)
- Do you know the play? - I have to react to what she said.
I don't know the play, but I must react to it,
- so viewers can understand it. - I see.
- Congratulations. - Please continue.
So I debuted in a play called, "Ode to Youth".
The actors who participated in the play were Park Hae Il...
and Yoon Je Moon. The three of us were in the play.
The play was very successful,
so both Hae Il and Je Moon's career took off.
But the thing is that...
- You didn't try to be an actress. - Right.
- Life brought you to that path... - It was like fate.
like fate.
- How intriguing. - It pushed me toward acting.
- Yes, it pushed you toward acting. - It was like fate.
Everything set you up for that road.
Right now, I don't have another skill set.
There's nothing else for me.
- Right. You studied acting. - That's amazing.
I heard So Young started off as a regional reporter from KBS.
- Sorry? - I didn't...
try to become a reporter either.
A team from KBS came to my school to do news coverage,
and I was in the clip.
At that time, they were recruiting reporters,
and I got the job, but I hadn't prepared anything for the position.
So I messed up every week just like you, Jae Seok.
- Such as? - On "Entertainment Weekly"?
- I did mess up a lot on the show. - Yes, that show.
Just like he messed up on that show, I messed up every week for a year.
It's hard to make a mistake every week,
but it's harder to have the chance to make a mistake every week.
- Usually... - People usually get fired then.
After saying a few lines,
I was supposed to say, "Let's take a look at the clip" at the end.
That day, my mind went completely blank.
I couldn't think at all,
so after I said some weird lines,
I said, "Let's jump into the clip."
- But that's not that bad. - That sounded cute.
But the thing is I don't even remember saying that line.
This just proves that I messed up every week.
I told the staff that I wanted to resign a lot.
I told them I was going to quit and that I wasn't cut out for this,
but they never let me go.
- They kept trying to make me stay. - Okay.
The way I could get myself out of this job was...
There was an exam for recruiting actors and actresses for MBC.
- The company exam. - Yes.
- So I applied for it, and I got it. - You got it on your first try?
- Yes. - They couldn't stop you then.
Right. I was really lucky too.
About 2,000 people applied for it.
The directors would want to see every side of the applicants.
The first applicant wanted to sing when...
when the directors asked about special talents.
A director said to become a singer if that was the special talent.
And the second applicant...
- That's what the director said? - The long interview tired him out.
When the director asked the same thing to the second applicant,
the applicant was going to dance.
The director said to become a dancer if that was the special talent.
- A lot of people dance. - Right.
- So... - Were you last?
I was last, and there was nothing for me to show them.
- What's there except those two? - There's not much.
I told them I was going to introduce myself in Japanese.
The director couldn't understand Japanese,
so he told me not to do it.
- He was mean. - What's the point of the interview?
- He stopped everything. - I wasn't flustered.
- What kind of a director is he? - What a strange director.
- I wasn't flustered. - It didn't throw you off?
I told them that I would translate it in Korean afterward.
I told them that since it's globalized era,
- they needed people with the skill. - That's right.
- That was a good point. - So after that,
I was well-received during the interview.
- I was cast for a drama right away. - Right away?
- Yes. Right, I did. - You had it easy.
I asked the director why I was chosen.
I was told that I was rough around the edges...
- and coltish which was refreshing. - You were coltish?
If so,
what happened to the other applicants who prepared a lot?
They didn't make the cut.
It was probably because their talents were too ordinary.
- Right. - You achieved your goal then.
Seung Woo, you wanted to become a film director at first.
- That's right. - You wanted to become a director,
- but did you audition for an actor? - Well, let me explain that.
I saw the ad in the newspaper that they were looking for film actors.
- There was an ad? - Yes.
- It was for "The General's Son". - I remember that.
- They picked me for my build. - That's right.
I was lucky.
- What was the role you played? - I played Two Swords.
- Two Swords? - I was Two Swords.
Did you audition for erotic films after that?
I would get a call.
It was from a film production, and they wanted to meet me.
- That would be my audition. - I see.
So I went to the meeting, and they looked at me from head to toe.
They said, "Great".
(Scanning up and down)
(What is "great"?)
- "My gosh, you're great." - What did they mean?
(The front side is great.)
- Just like that? - "I can see how big he is."
- That's what they said? - Yes.
Did they keep saying you're great?
They asked if I was available on a specific date.
I told them I would do the shoot no matter what.
I asked them for the script, and they told me to just come.
My goodness.
I asked them to at least tell me the title, and they did.
You know that back in the days, usually, they came in...
- Series. - Yes, that's right.
They told me that it was one of the series.
I decided to go for it after holding out a bit more.
So I turned it down.
Tae Seung, I remember you were a good baseball player.
You were on the national team too. What made you change career?
I had a lot of injuries ever since I was young.
It didn't work out for me. I constantly got injured.
I didn't want to practice once I gave up on it.
(He had to give up his dream.)
It must have been a hard decision. I bet you thought about it a lot.
Well, yes.
- My parents invested in the career. - Exactly.
I had only played baseball since I was young until that point.
I thought about what I could do when I gave up on baseball.
My father told me to either get a job...
or take the college entrance exam and attend college.
There was no way I could get in since I only played sports.
It was very simple. Seoul Institute of the Arts was in my area.
I decided to attend it since it was nearby.
I researched how I could get in.
Film and theater were the only majors that students got in with auditions.
So I went to an acting academy to help me pass the audition.
An audition for "Superstar Mr. Gam" was...
- being held at the academy. - There was an audition.
- They wanted baseball players. - Baseball players? What a timing.
- That's so strange. - That's how he got his break.
- He got his chance right away. - Exactly.
- You won the role. - Just like that,
- I applied for the audition. - Okay.
I told them I was a baseball player up until two months ago.
- "Up until two months ago." - That's right. He was indeed.
They told me to help the actors on the cast with baseball.
I was to teach them baseball...
and film scenes that required baseball skills.
I was a double for those scenes. That's the role I had.
Afterward, the director gave me a role, Koo Chun Suh.
- That was my first film. - You debuted with that film?
- Koo Chun Suh of OB Bears? - Yes, I played Koo Chun Suh.
- It's amazing how it worked out. - Precisely.
- Everyone ended up on this path. - I know, right?
- That's so interesting. - Our mistakes made a map for us.
That was a great line.
- "Our mistakes made a map for us." - I mean...
you didn't let a failure rule you. It worked out since you worked hard.
But after that, for your first major role in "Blossom Again",
you beat the chance, 2,000 to 1 and became Kim Jung Eun's love interest.
- My gosh, 2,000 to 1? - It was a hit. It was incredible.
- It was sensational. - Tell us about it.
When he debuted as a new actor in "Blossom Again",
I thought that such a unique actor had debuted.
His features seem soft,
but they were still strong.
I got such a great vibe from him.
I heard you wore a unique outfit to the audition.
At that time, just like Seung Woo, I didn't have any connections.
I literally knew no one from the industry.
- I had no one to ask questions. - So then?
So I researched how to ace auditions online.
- I knew it. - They share many tips online.
- I've done it myself too. - There are great tips online.
Yes, they are the best.
It said that I must stand out during the auditions.
That's how I can get them ask me more questions.
- That's true. - He has a point.
- You can't be plain. - The judges would sit there...
and watch hundreds of people.
- That's true. - Precisely.
I wore the uniform for New York Yankees.
- You wore the uniform? - Yes.
I wore the uniform and the hat for the Yankees as well.
- That's what you wore back then? - Yes.
I wore baggy pants too.
- In a nut shell, you looked hip. - Yes.
- I applied a lot of wax on my hair. - Wax?
It looked like a bolt of lightning struck on my hair.
- Did your hair stick out? - Yes.
- It was trendy back then. - That wasn't your usual style,
- but did the tips make you do that? - Yes.
- The tip was I had to stand out. - I'm so curious. So what happened?
- I was sitting there and called in. - Okay.
When I walked in, they told me to come back after washing my hair.
- They asked you to wash your hair? - Yes, that's what they said.
- But they told you to come back. - Yes, they wanted me to come back.
They wanted to see his face properly.
- You made an impression. - Right.
After I washed my hair, I went back in.
They asked me why I came for the audition,
why my hair looked the way it did, and why I wore a baseball uniform.
- Questions gushed out. - They ask me many questions.
- Questions spilled. - That was a good point.
- I explained how I played... - They were full of questions.
baseball before acting and filmed "Superstar Mr. Gam".
I told them that's why I wore the uniform.
I also told them I put a lot of wax...
because I read it online that I must stand out.
He explained everything.
- You told them everything? - Yes.
He's really likable.
When I explained them everything...
- That made him more likable. - Exactly.
- He sounded innocent. - He was honest.
In the end, I realized the tips online weren't wrong.
- That's right. - Exactly. They are valid points.
- What did the director say? - The director?
He told me that I had to meet Jung Eun the next day.
I said, "Why would I meet her?"
Ratings for "Lovers in Paris" were over 50 percent then.
- "Baby, let's go." - That's right. I remember that.
- It brought a national sensation. - Indeed.
- "Baby, let's go." - Right.
- You went to meet "the baby". - Yes.
It turned out that I won the leading male role.
- My goodness. - Weren't you surprised to see her?
I thought a TV was walking toward me.
- What? A TV? - The TV...
- I thought I was watching the TV. - He was so innocent.
- Tae Seung sounds like one of us. - Wait.
- He used an old term. - "The TV".
There was a KBS program called "100 Points out of 100".
- You hosted the show. - I was the host.
- I worked with him. He was funny. - You were on the show together?
- Yes. - He's really bubbly.
- He was Little Kim Bo Sung. - Really?
He was funny. Don't you think so?
- I thought I must stand out again. - Right.
Did you research that online again?
I didn't research it online. I figured it out from my experience.
- He gained a lot of attention then. - I thought I should make a mark.
I dressed up like a guy who just got off the motorbike.
Who just got off the motorbike.
- "Motorbike". I like it. - My gosh, seriously?
- "TV, motorbike". He's one of us. - "Motorbike".
- I looked like a biker. - I thought he was younger.
- Like a guy who got off the bike, - I see.
I wore a leather jacket.
I was to receive a lot of parcels that day.
I had to answer the calls,
so I had the bluetooth earphone on.
(It's not an easy thing to do on TV.)
That was my outfit.
- He's amazing. - He's honest.
- His honesty makes him funny. - He loves variety shows.
I bet you would've been a big hit on variety shows had you continued,
but you're not on variety shows anymore.
The first variety show I starred on made me extremely nervous.
- Which show was it? - I think it's been about 14 years.
- It was 13 or 14 years ago. - Okay.
Back then, dating variety shows were popular.
- That's right. - Like "Match Made in Heaven"?
Yes, I filmed "Love Letter" for the first time.
At that time, I was so scared of Kang Ho Dong.
- So was I. - Why did he scare you?
- Right now, younger people... - He's scary.
see him just as a comedian or a host,
but at that time, it hadn't been long since he quit ssireum.
- He was a senior in sports. - I see.
- He was a senior in sports. - He was a senior in sports.
That's right.
- Were you intimidated? - Of course I was.
There was a game called Kick of Love.
- What kind of a game was it? - Kick of Love!
It really reminds me of...
the early 2000s.
Female celebrities lined up and cheered.
Male celebrities flew...
to kick and break the styrofoam boards.
Hwanhee of Fly to the Sky and I had...
the final match.
I remember the height was over 7m.
For an hour and half, we kept outdoing each other.
- It became a competition. - Yes.
Hwanhee is competitive.
They ran out of styrofoam boards.
(They ran out of styrofoam boards.)
Ho Dong said, "Come over here."
(Ho Dong called him over.)
"An athlete shouldn't be that way."
"If you try too hard to win,"
"it might reflect badly on your character."
- It's understandable. - He told me...
to lose.
- Lose in this round. - "Wouldn't it be better to lose?"
- That's what he said. - You didn't want to lose, did you?
I could still jump 2 or 3m.
I had quit baseball only two years ago.
I could have kicked the board,
but I pulled back in the end.
- My goodness. - After the shoot,
the scriptwriters said,
"It was fun. Why did you stop?"
"You could have kept going."
"Ho Dong said a competitive athlete..."
"could look bad."
They said, "He said it to end the shoot early."
(Ho Dong's plan)
I only learned about it later.
I am sure...
Ho Dong tried to balance things out.
He had to mediate.
I am sure you were scared because he is a senior in sports.
You can be surprised when you see him for the first time.
- He is full of fighting spirit. - That's right.
- He is full of it. - Yes.
You failed to get roles because of your weight.
I went to a lot of auditions,
- but I never got a role. - Why not?
They told me I am too tanned and fat.
- Too fat? - I wasn't exactly fat,
but my thigh was 26in wide.
- You were playing sports. - That's right.
Baseball players work out their thighs.
They have bulky bodies.
People told me that I need to lose weight.
I used to weigh over 90kg. Now, I lost 20kg.
You have many ways of losing weight.
I am an expert.
- He knows a lot. - Which diet methods have you used?
- I have tried everything. - Which diet methods have you used?
You need to know your own body.
I clean out my bowels when I go on a diet.
Then I start to watch what I eat.
With sodium-laden blood vessels and a stretched-out stomach,
your diet is bound to fail.
Do you take pills to empty your bowels?
- How do you do that? - There are pills for that.
- Colon cleanse pills. - They are probiotics.
You empty your bowels.
- What comes next? - You drink water.
Once your stomach decreases in size, you eat appropriate food.
What's Left Hand Diet?
If you eat with your right hand, the frontal lobe tells you,
"Grab this much meat."
- Really? - Then you really grab that much.
- That's right. - With your left hand,
you can't grab as much as you would like.
- That's right. - Thus, I ate with my left hand.
I have tried it.
I started to use a fork.
I couldn't use chopsticks.
Sae Ho will become left-handed.
I ended up getting good at using my left hand.
Seriously.
Later on, I could move beans with my left hand.
I could pick beans with my left hand.
How much did you lose in a period of time?
I once lost 10kg in 2 weeks.
- It's effective. - I should try it.
I's effective to empty your bowels first.
There are weight loss misconceptions men and women have.
Men work out to go on a diet.
- That's right. - Men have more visceral fat.
- That's right. - Women...
starve to go on a diet.
However, women have more subcutaneous fat.
Men should starve and watch what they eat...
- and women should work out. - They should work out.
- That's useful information. - That's useful information.
That's useful information.
We learned useful information at the beginning of the year.
I need to lose weight.
How should Sae Ho lose weight?
- He needs a colon cleanse. - A colon cleanse.
- Cabbage is good for that. - Cabbage?
You need cabbage.
At the hospital, I was told that I need to remove the toxins.
I am like a poisonous toad.
I have toxins in my body.
- You should lose weight. - It will be good for your health.
Lose a little bit of weight.
Seung Woo, you are a seasoned actor.
You are quite active in your works.
Have you experienced a slump?
I wouldn't exactly call it a slump.
When my wife had our first child, I couldn't stay by her side...
because I was so busy.
If their husbands mistreat them after childbirth,
- women feel upset. - It lasts a lifetime.
That's what I heard.
I told myself I won't work if my wife gets pregnant again.
After our second child was born, I spent time with my family.
I decided to work again, but I couldn't find a job.
It hurt my feelings a bit.
I always had jobs.
I always received scripts.
It's embarrassing to ask your manager about it.
"Did I get any job offers?" It's embarrassing.
The manager would be embarrassed, too.
- He wouldn't hide information. - That's right.
My wife had the same problem.
After she gave birth to our second child,
she stopped getting job offers.
We didn't make any money in two years.
Afterwards, my wife made a comeback...
through "Queen of Housewives" in the first half of 2009.
- It was a hit. - Then I appeared in "Iris".
("Queen of Housewives" and "Iris")
That's why people think we never stopped working.
We had a slump...
because no one hired us when we wanted to work.
That's the only slump you experienced.
That's right.
So Young,
you also experienced a severe slump.
I am sure all actresses do this. Around mid-30s,
I began to think about how I will continue to be an actress.
There was I time I didn't get any job offers.
After many thoughts,
I decided to do theatrical works.
However, going into the theater without much preparation...
put me under a lot of stress.
The stage began to appear foggy.
I thought to myself, "It must be dusty in here."
- It's entirely possible. - It could be smog.
Then at one point, the foggy vision persisted...
even when I was outside the theater.
I finally realized that something was wrong...
and visited the eye doctor. I got diagnosed with myodesopsia.
The extreme stress had increased my intraocular pressure...
and caused the blood vessels to burst.
I was close to losing my sight. I got a surgery right away.
The theatrical works are high-pressure...
because the performances are live.
I am fine now.
I will be fine because I have Soo Hee.
I trust in Soo Hee.
You can follow me.
(You can follow me.)
Tae Seung, you had a slump in the army.
- Is that so? - I think it's the same for...
everyone in their 20s regardless of the profession.
The military service isn't a break you take on your own volition.
It's a compulsory service for the nation.
Since I had many things I wanted to do,
it felt like my 20s had been cut to 8 years.
I had that thought in the army.
The celebrities in my baseball team, Park Seo Jun...
and Yoon Hyun Min...
continued to appear on TV when I was a private.
The two of them did.
They became popular after he went to the army.
"I am happy for them. They struggled a lot so far."
They appeared on TV even when I was a private first class.
"They should work when they have the chance."
They need to work diligently.
They appeared on TV even when I was a corporal.
- "Hold on." - They succeeded faster...
- than you imagined. - Yes.
"Are there no actors around?"
"They became so popular."
It would have been nice...
- to act alongside them. - That's right.
- He was stuck. - You must have felt impatient.
- I wanted to act. - You must have felt impatient.
Apparently, there is a letter Tae Seung wrote.
- To whom? - Seung Woo.
- I know. - He wrote a letter?
I brought the letter.
- Really? - Did you bring it?
- I brought it. - You brought it.
When did I write it?
You gave it to me before you went to the army.
- His handwriting is neat. - How pretty!
- Not many men write so neatly. - "Dear Seung Woo."
"I write to you to convey my gratitude."
"I am always thankful and reassured..."
"because you look after your junior actor."
"Although my time as an actor doesn't compare..."
"to the traces of your life,"
"you always encourage me with sincerity..."
"and worry about me. I want to thank you for that."
"I will work hard, so that I don't let you down."
"I love you."
It was written in 2013.
- That's touching. - My heart feels warm.
Perhaps it's the fur.
My heart feels warm.
It's a precious letter.
You should keep it.
On Seung Woo's birthday...
Tae Seung is good to his senior actors.
- He really is. - Sae Ho.
- Sae Ho, listen and learn. - I will do that.
He gave Seung Woo a birthday present.
- It was a special present. - I think...
he is fond of throwing events.
What did he do?
When he was a private first class or a corporal,
I drove him home one day.
It wasn't anything...
to cry about.
He suddenly asked me if I could lend him money.
I know how he is.
It must've taken so long for him to talk to me.
Knowing that, I was really upset.
To hide my upset feelings,
I shouted in the car.
I told him a man shouldn't cry over those things.
And he cried.
I gave him all the cash I had in my wallet and left.
I told him not to hesitate to ask for more if needed.
That's how it ended.
Then I forgot about it. One day, he gave me an envelope.
He handed it to me and said, "This is for your birthday."
When I opened it, there was a letter...
and the money he received from me at the time.
He paid me back.
I got so emotional at the time.
After he left, I finally got to cry and let out my feelings.
I was impressed at how warm-hearted he was.
That's what Myung Soo wants. Give me 2,000 dollars then.
Give me 2,000 dollars.
- I'll go spend it first. - Right.
- I don't carry more than 50. - You don't carry more than 50.
You can search my wallet and just take the money.
I want to get touched and cry too.
At the time, a soldier's monthly salary was only about 100 dollars.
It was too little.
But I was hesitant to ask a close friend for such favor.
- You became more careful. - Yes.
Also, he was a more experienced actor than me.
So I regretted telling him what I told him.
But suddenly, he passed me everything he had in his wallet.
He must've hesitated for a second though.
When I reached out for my money, I realized I had quite a lot.
- When I grabbed the money... - Oh, dear.
I needed it for the next day.
I needed it, but...
- I gave it to him. - Perhaps you gave him half.
- I should have done that. - No.
He showed me his wallet and said he gave me everything.
He made it clear.
Getting off the car, he looked amazing.
I wondered if I could do what he did.
I wondered if I could do it if there's someone like me?
- He's amazing. - That got me emotional.
Their friendship is very tight.
- I envy them. - Yes.
We thank our guests Seung Woo, Soo Hee,
Tae Seung, and So Young. We will give them facial masks.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(Shortly, Ending Singer Special 2 will begin.)
(They're at the mecca of office workers.)
(In Yeoksam-dong,)
(Previously on Ending Singer Special)
(Seok Hoon joined us too.)
(He had barely made it out when he was here.)
(They had an intense tug-of-war in the beginning.)
(Kyung Ho suspected that this was all scripted.)
(Kyung Ho the Angry Man was back.)
(He complained about how tough it is to do rock in Korea.)
(It's an intense competition of the singers who had gone home last.)
(Who will be the last one to go home this time?)
(Sing My Song will begin in 1 minute.)
- Sing My Song. - Sing My Song.
It begins now.
- It started. - Let's begin.
- All right. - Someone might sing their song now.
- Now... - We never know what will happen.
- Someone should sing your song. - I am nervous.
This is nerve-wrecking.
Look. People in Room Three is singing "I Believe".
- Are they? - Yes.
That's an old song.
- It's more than 10 years old. - Lovely.
- We picked the right place. - It's nice.
- I like this area. - That was from "Sassy Girl".
They're singing "A Thousand Years of Love".
- Where? - My goodness.
Kyung Ho mentioned it a while ago.
("A Thousand Years of Love" by Park Wan Kyu)
- Yeoksam is different. - It's very different.
- You have a chance, Kyung Ho. - That was so unexpected.
If he's singing "A Thousand Years of Love",
he has a chance to sing mine.
- It's not a very common choice. - He could win.
- People usually don't sing that. - There are only men in Room Two.
There's a chance they will sing Kyung Ho's song.
- There's a man... It's a woman. - He's confident to hit high notes.
They are like a set. People sing "Forbidden Love" after that song.
- I drank water to get ready. - They have 10 minutes left.
They're singing UN's "Gift".
No, that's Melomance's "Gift".
- I am sorry. - It's Melomance's.
I thought it was UN's song.
I thought it was another proof that Yeoksam is different.
Tae Woo is very polite to people older than him.
- He's good. - He's very polite.
- Is that right? - I've known him for a long time,
but he's always been very polite.
I heard about what happened between you and Kim Jong Seo.
- Is there such a story? - Yes.
It was the day of my comeback performance.
Jong Seo happened to have his comeback performance too.
So I went to his waiting room to say hello.
When I went there, there were Boohwal guys too.
Tae Won was sleeping on the side.
Jong Seo was there, so I said, "Long time no see!"
I asked him if other artists had come to say hi.
And he said, "No, you're the first."
And that upset me.
I guess the young artists must've found it difficult to approach him.
It can be difficult for them.
But I suddenly got upset.
- He got mad. - I went to the hallway and shouted.
"Anyone who's less experienced than me should all come out!"
Did they really come out?
- Did they? - It'd be funny if they didn't.
- So... - Did they?
They awkwardly came out when they heard me.
When I said, "Did you go say hello to Jong Seo and Boohwal?"
And they said they didn't.
I told them to go say hello.
And everyone...
- Each group has their own way. - suddenly went and said hi.
There were about 50 of them.
Is it their birthday party or what?
They said to me, "Why are you doing this to me?"
That would be so embarrassing.
- That would be. - I was so frustrated.
Jong Seo and Tae Won cursed at me.
They blamed me for doing this.
And those idol group singers wouldn't have said something...
good about me in the car. Right?
- It's safe to say they didn't. - Right.
They didn't say anything good.
It taught me a lesson to never do that again.
But that's the right thing to do.
Did that put everything back in order?
- Why? - I experienced that many times.
- But at one point, - Do they say hi to you?
- Yes. - When they see my name,
- they come to say hello. - The rumor has spread.
I think he made it happen.
- He did something amazing. - He did.
- That's Kim Tae Woo Effect. - When was that?
- Why? - Is someone singing your song?
Someone must be singing his song.
- No. - It's Tae Woo's.
- Look. - Where?
- Room Three. - Where?
- Room Three. - They're singing it.
What did we want to sing? A dance song?
How about this one?
("One Candle" by g.o.d.)
Should I change it to a woman's key?
(There are many people who don't have much.)
(This is for those...)
(who are struggling right now.)
(Cheers, everyone!)
- What is it? - It's "One Candle".
- Let's go! - What is it?
(Finally, someone is singing "One Candle".)
(Tae Woo did it.)
It only took 21 minutes. No.
- It's not 21 minutes. - It is.
- Hey. - How can you tell him that?
Let's go.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
- Let's go. - He shouldn't have come here.
- Suk Hoon is such a nice man. - We shouldn't have invited him.
- That was amazing. - It took 13 minutes.
- It's a new record. - 13 minutes.
Chan Whee's record is broken.
- That was amazing. - Who found out?
- Suk Hoon did. - Why did you find it?
Why don't we all enjoy this together?
You're relaxed because you got to go home last time.
- You're relaxed. - Relax a little.
Look at Kyung Ho. This is crazy.
(I'll pretend to enjoy it.)
(Not knowing anything, they are having a party.)
(Go, Tae Woo!)
(The singer is coming soon.)
(He was treated like a folding screen.)
(Now he won't be sad anymore.)
Cheer up.
(He walks towards the light.)
(Screaming)
(They surprise the girls.)
(Who are you?)
No way!
Keep singing.
(They finally grasp the situation.)
(The girls lit one candle.)
(The candlelight spreads...)
(and brightens Tae Woo.)
That's it!
(When you're tired, you can lean on me)
(Let's party!)
Get up. Get up.
Come on!
(I won't make you feel alone)
(He enjoys his time with his fans.)
- He went in. - He went in.
That's how they usually react.
(It was very different for him.)
That's it, Seok Hoon.
- You can do it. You can do it. - Yes.
- I envy him. - You can do it.
They must've been so surprised. My goodness.
You've never experienced that, have you?
(His fans love his song.)
(He's happy to spend time with them.)
One more time.
I won't make you feel alone
- It's amazing. - He's really excited.
- He is excited. - Tae Woo is excited.
Tae Woo got excited.
(I can go really wild.)
One more time.
What's up with "One more time"?
Didn't he say that his voice is in bad condition?
- He did. - He's fine.
- He seems fine. - He lied.
(He ad-libs.)
This is amazing.
He's performing harder here than at his concert.
He's putting so much effort into ad-libbing.
(Isn't he sick?)
- He doesn't have a mic. - He doesn't have a mic.
(His voice is big enough without the mic.)
(Thank you.)
(They celebrate the success.)
This is Happy Together. It's Sing My Song.
Did you know?
- We didn't know. - Did you have no idea?
- Did you not know? - We had two minutes left,
so we wanted to sing something exciting.
- Really? - "One Candle" is a perfect choice.
Tae Woo did something good to his fellow singer.
- That's why he got lucky. - He got lucky.
Seok Hoon played an important role.
Even our crew downstairs didn't know about this.
- This is... - He's bad.
- He is. - So...
- Is he bad? - He's so slow-witted.
I am less experienced, but I will tell you this.
You need to relax.
- Kyung Ho. Lyn. - He's relaxed.
- Relax. - He's relaxed because he went home.
- This is not that important. - This matters.
This is the consolation match to recover our honor.
- Enjoy it. - It doesn't matter...
- who's more experienced. - You at least got to go home.
- He got to go home. - But I didn't.
- She's right. - It's true.
- He barely made it. - This is funny.
When another singer's song came out,
Tae Woo didn't tell anyone.
- But he did. - That's what I am saying.
He told everyone.
By the way, Yeoksam is the perfect place for us.
13 minutes is a new record.
I thought it was your song.
I was surprised because you were so excited.
- It made me so happy. - Right.
Will you be happy when you are left alone?
- I'll be okay. - I hope it lasts.
- He's too good for his own good. - I'm okay. It's okay.
(Welcome)
I will always be
- There for you. - By the way...
Congratulations.
- Tae Woo succeeded in Yeoksam. - He did it.
- He did it. - He broke Chan Whee's record.
- He broke the record, right? - Really?
- He did. - He did it in 13 minutes.
(He enters the Hall of Fame.)
Yes!
Congratulations to you.
- Did they take the exam then? - They must've taken the exam.
- Did you take the exam? - We took the exam.
- Good job. - Good job.
How do you know g.o.d's "One Candle"?
I often sing this song as the last song.
When Tae Woo entered, you reacted very passionately.
- How did you feel? - What was it like?
(She's still overwhelmed.)
Someone as big as a bear just walked in.
- Wait. - Someone like a bear.
Were you surprised because I was too big?
(Tae Woo the Bear has appeared.)
(Save me!)
(Oh, dear.)
- He was like a bear. - So I barely made it too.
I should become bigger too.
(He envies Tae Woo for his fans' reactions.)
We thank Seok Hoon very much.
- We didn't see it. - We really didn't.
- Seok Hoon told everyone. - Right.
- We could've lost the chance. - Yes.
I am relaxed because I've succeeded before.
(His previous success makes him stay relaxed.)
- What does he have? - He's succeeded before.
- He's succeeded before. - I barely succeeded.
Thank you, girls.
Tae Woo and Seok Jin will be going home.
We did it in Yeoksam.
We set the record of 13 minutes.
- Yeoksam is amazing. - Yeoksam doesn't betray us.
Tae Woo gets to go home.
- Yeoksam doesn't betray. - Take care.
Cheers!
Good luck!
(Singing with his fans was even better than the victory.)
(Thank you, Yeoksam.)
When you saw them, did you not hesitate at all?
Did you immediately think that you should tell everyone?
Of course I should tell everyone.
I think he did hesitate.
- I didn't. - You got surprised and paused.
I was watching too, but I didn't know.
Did you break the news immediately?
He's got no lenses on his glasses, but he sees well.
He's got no lenses.
- "He sees well." - But he saw well.
- Why does he see so well? - Lyn is starting to get upset...
- now that one singer is gone. - I feel sad.
If someone sings my song, I will be happier...
than when I received an award.
- I'd feel the same. - They don't have much time.
The ones who succeed...
become so happy. They get even more thrilled...
- than their fans. - I think it would feel amazing.
- That's what happened to Tae Woo. - We saw Tae Woo.
This program allows you to see if people of different ages...
know your songs...
and how much they like your songs.
We don't have a chance to check it elsewhere.
- Right. - We were always praised.
That's why we are even more curious.
- You're used to being surrounded... - I've been...
- by fans who love you. - doing this for 20 years.
I wonder if young people know my song.
(You know my song, right?)
I can't believe nobody is singing a rock song.
- People of so many generations... - Let's not expect anything.
- Kim Kyung Ho! - Where?
(Is someone singing "Forbidden Love"?)
- No. - What is it?
(Kim Hyung Ho's "Forbidden Love")
- Come on. - They lingered for a second.
- It was close. - I was really surprised.
- They thought about it. - They did.
- Did they linger? - They did.
There was a chance.
SG Wannabe.
- SG Wannabe. - Look.
- They're searching. - I can't believe it.
- It's SG Wannabe. - Those are all SG Wannabe's.
They're flipping through SG Wannabe's songs.
There.
Don't leave the page.
They're looking for SG Wannabe's song.
- SG Wannabe. - They typed the name.
- They searched for SG Wannabe. - Seok Hoon put on a coat.
- Put on your coat. - Look at Seok Hoon.
- Look at Seok Hoon. - Let's go.
They're only looking at SG Wannabe's songs.
They haven't chosen it yet.
- They erased the name. - Did they find it?
Did they erase it?
(What?)
They erased it.
- Take it off. - They only searched for SG Wannabe.
- They searched for SG Wannabe. - Take it off.
- But they erased it. - They erased it.
- They left the page. - What's wrong with your life?
(I was happy for a while.)
- What's wrong with you? - What's wrong?
That's...
They're looking for something else.
- They're playing with us. - This is too mean.
This is so funny.
They wanted to sing M To M's song.
M To M? Who are they?
- What? - They are similar to us.
- Jin Ho was part of it. - They didn't intend it,
- but they teased us too much. - This is so bad.
- They searched for SG Wannabe. - I've never seen this happen.
- They changed their mind. - I thought they chose it.
When you search for a group, you have to sing at least one song.
- It's never happened before. - Seok Hoon looked...
really full of himself when he was putting on his coat.
(He was excited to go outside.)
They might search for SG Wannabe's song again after this.
Let's not give up.
I am so glad.
(She spoke her mind.)
- My goodness. - She spoke her mind.
You have to be honest like her.
Yes. Right.
(The singers have an intense tug-of-war.)
This is shocking.
The waiting time is getting long.
- Actually, yesterday... - We can say that the world is...
against them at the moment.
- Why? - Is he putting on his coat?
- Why? - "Because It's Christmas".
- Hey. - What's happening?
- It's... - Wait.
"Because It's Christmas".
- Hey. - What's happening?
(Seok Hoon was part of the group who sang it.)
(It's really my turn.)
(You're leaving too.)
("Because It's Christmas")
- They went down. - They went down.
(He fails for the 2nd time.)
My goodness.
Hey, you surprised me.
You are so distracted.
- He was just fixing his clothes. - I was fixing my clothes.
- That was a pleasant surprise. - It was "Because It's Christmas".
I think Sing My Song, Yeoksam Special is going to fail.
- It's... - Why would you say that?
Why would you jinx it?
(They've been observing for an hour.)
- By the way... - We've been through this a lot.
- My goodness. I am sorry. - You should answer it.
- You can answer the phone. - You can.
It's...
Father, I am filming right now.
I am shooting Happy Together.
I am losing again.
I will call you later. Okay.
Don't expect anything.
What did your father say?
"You can't lose again, son."
(He's worried that his son will come last again.)
It's sad.
"You can't lose again, son."
Let's start using the chances.
Since you've waited long, let's use the chance.
- All right. - It's about time.
You have to use the chance wisely.
You have to choose the room carefully.
- Seok Hoon will choose it. - Let's see which one he chooses.
Let's see which one he gets.
There are only female customers now.
He did it.
What is it? I can't wait to see it.
Force booking chance!
This is a good one.
- This is a good one. - This one works.
- This is the best one. - It really is.
Let's check Room Three.
(They're singing BTS' "Boy In Luv".)
What do you think about that room?
I'll be in big trouble.
- Will you be in big trouble? - I'll be in big trouble.
Let's check Room Two.
("One Love" by M.C the Max)
- Perhaps... - They are singing a calm ballad.
they would sing yours after this.
- They're singing "Like It" again. - It's "Like It" again.
That room isn't bad either.
They're singing "Like It",
and they're singing "Yes" next.
Really?
- I'm jealous. - Did Room One book it?
In some way,
it's the answer to Kyung Ho's question from the past.
Do you like "Like It" that much?
(Yes, I really like it.)
- Room One. - Then now...
- Then... - Here we go.
(Force booking chance begins.)
(Five songs are booked in a row.)
- Higher? Lower? - Yes.
(Five songs are booked.)
- Is it booked? - Now.
- Booking completed. - All five songs are booked.
- In the middle. - Where is it? The middle?
- Room 1. - Room 1?
Room One. Will the force booking chance work?
Let's see.
Does it play automatically?
We have to listen to what they say.
That's what humiliates you.
Let's see.
They're saying something.
I think the one holding the remote control noticed it.
- Really? - I think she noticed it.
See? Some people notice it.
- Seok Hoon. Watch. - People watch this show.
She's checking the booking list.
(Booking list?)
- What is it? - Happy Together.
Maybe Lee Seok Hoon is here.
She knows.
- She know this show. - Watch.
She's seen it. I heard it.
They have seen the show.
(They even mentioned his name. Will he succeed?)
- She knows this show. - She's deleting it.
(They're deleting it.)
- She's deleting it. - Why doesn't she sing it?
- She deleted it. - She deleted it.
Wait a minute.
- What? - Hold on.
Is he humiliated even before the start?
- They canceled the booking. - Yes.
We should at least hear the prelude.
- Give us one more chance. - One more time.
(No one expected this.)
The thing is...
if they think it's Happy Together,
they should sing at least one,
but they deleted it.
They don't care whether it's Happy Together or not.
After this song, let's book it again.
- We'll try it right away. - Try again after this song.
Book it again right away.
We'll do it.
What are you going to do, Seok Hoon?
We don't need to listen to one song.
- You need to go in right away. - Goodness.
- You should go in right away. - I'm nervous.
- Seok Hoon might think this way. - I guess they can see it.
It's a problem even if they do sing it.
Even if they do sing it, he'll be forced to sing.
(He became the epitome of forced.)
- We have to see. - No.
Have you seen Happy Together?
Whoever's song is playing in the karaoke...
can go home first.
(The song ended forcibly.)
(Please sing my song.)
- It's scary. - I know.
Shall we sing it?
Hold on.
(If they sing it...)
- Do you know this song? - Not really.
- Hold on. - They don't know.
- They don't know. - Are they forced to sing it again?
- They don't know. - Forced again?
- They don't know. - They don't?
Do they not know the song?
They don't know, but they feel bad.
- They booked it again. - Then...
Just turn it off.
- What? They must know... - I'm sorry.
- it's Happy Together. - Just turn it off.
They stopped singing.
- They really turned it off. - Turn it off.
Sadly, SG Wannabe and Seok Hoon failed...
in Room One.
(Lee Seok Hoon failed force booking chance.)
Put it down please. You see...
- Okay. - they've done nothing wrong.
- Yes. - Of course.
They want to sing it, but they don't know the song.
- It's just their preference. - Right.
They even thought it's Happy Together,
so they tried to sing it, but they don't know the song.
- Anyway, I'm thankful... - Yes.
- that they tried it at least. - Right.
I thank them sincerely.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
So Lee Seok Hoon is failed for now.
- We missed it. - Now...
it's Lyn's turn. What would you like?
- I wanted to try force booking. - Okay.
But it's really bad.
- Of course. - Yes.
I actually want to avoid the next room singing.
- She tried it last time. - It was quite hard.
- It was shocking. - Yes.
- It'd be funny if we do it again. - Here we go.
(Which chance would Lyn get?)
Goodness. It shouldn't go into the middle.
- Not in the middle. - You hold it.
- I'll try it again. - 1, 2, 3.
(It fell.)
- You should try softly. - It hit the chair.
- Nothing works today. - Let's go home.
- Let's go home. - I'm tired.
(What is it suddenly?)
- What? - What?
- Is it up? - What is it?
- Where is it? - Room Three.
- Tell me. - Room Three.
- Tell me before you go. - Room Three.
That's Seok Hoon.
(What's going on suddenly?)
(That's Seok Hoon.)
Is it right?
- Let's go, Seok Hoon. - They're singing.
- No one expected it. - I know.
- They're singing. - You did it, Seok Hoon.
It's voluntary.
- I can't believe it. - It's unbelievable.
Seok Hoon did it.
That's awesome.
- It really happened. - I can't enjoy it.
They only sang idol songs.
They suddenly changed it.
How about that room?
(Before using the chance,)
(they thought that room would be dangerous,)
(but they're really entering that dangerous room.)
What are you doing?
(Surprise!)
(Screaming)
- Hello. - Hello.
It's Happy Together.
They're surprised.
- They're surprised. - Hello.
What if they don't know him again?
(They calm down.)
(It's Christmas)
You scared me.
(Can someone explain what is going on?)
(In my eyes...)
I'm shaking.
Their reaction is much better than last time.
(It's a relief.)
It's a relief. Seok Hoon's safe.
It's incredible.
(Let's sing together.)
Great. This is great. This is what I'm talking about.
- Right. - Awesome.
This is great.
This is what Seok Hoon wanted.
Sing please.
(It's a gift. Cute closing angels.)
(It's a surprise event where they share.)
(He reflects how happy he is in his voice...)
(and holds a small concert just for four people.)
(It's unbelievable.)
It's sweet.
(Their hearts are racing.)
(This Christmas gift like time...)
(will stay in their memory for good.)
Awesome.
(They love it.)
Hey. We did it.
- Seok Hoon. - Thank you guys.
(Thank you guys for recognizing me.)
Thank you. Thank you.
- What is it? - Do you know what it is?
- Happy Together? - They know.
Did you know Seok Hoon sang this song?
Yes, I did.
(Thank you.)
(He hugs.)
I should sing with many singers.
(Unexpected learning)
Summer song for summer, and winter song for winter.
- Right. From now on, - You should make a new song.
now that you've seen what songs people enjoy singing,
you get the idea what kind of songs...
- you should sing, right? - I do.
- It's like a fan meeting now. - I see it clearly.
Did I lose to Lee Seok Hoon again?
Gosh.
It's unbelievable.
- That's an internal damage. - Yes.
It's unbearable.
(A glorious return)
Congratulations.
(My goodness.)
- Congratulations. - Lee Seok Hoon.
- Lee Seok Hoon. - He did it.
- Lee Seok Hoon. - Have a seat in the middle.
- This is crazy. - That was awesome.
- He's popular. - Yes.
- Who booked it? - Her.
How did you book this song?
- She must be a fan of Vixx. - Hey.
(She destroys the mood.)
- Come closer. - Or a fan of Park Hyo Shin?
Hold the mic closer.
- I'm working on Christmas. - Bring the mic up.
I feel depressed, so I wanted to hear Christmas carol.
- You have to work on Christmas. - Yes.
Did you recognize Seok Hoon when he walked in?
- No. - No.
(Why did I say what's on my heart?)
I thought so. It's fine.
We've experienced it a lot before.
You don't need to recognize me. It's fine.
- He's used to it. - I'm used to it.
- It's fine. - It's not the first time.
- He's used to it. - "He's used to it."
We needed a tambourine, so we asked for it.
Do you have to say it?
She said that when we were on the elevator.
She thought someone who plays a tambourine walked in.
"A tambourine player."
Who did you think he was?
I thought he works here.
(On his first success, they thought he was an employee.)
(Someone they want to call when they need a tambourine.)
(By now, he should get a second job.)
What makes you say that?
He's Mr. Tambourine.
(Find Mr. Tambourine at the entrance.)
Seok Hoon walked in...
all dressed up, but they thought he plays the tambourine.
The thing is their reaction was different from last time.
- It was so different. - It was so different.
- I could tell it was exciting. - It was like a fan meeting.
- I've had a lot of concerts. - Yes.
I don't care about them anymore. They're the best.
He must've liked them so much.
- He hugged each of them. - I know.
Do you recognize Seok Hoon now?
When I was in middle school, he was my ideal man.
(She confesses that she was his fan.)
(I knew it.)
- She sang most enthusiastically. - No.
- Seriously. - You saved him.
You experienced both the agony and paradise. How was it?
First, I'm very happy.
When they were singing "Because It's Christmas",
I was worried I would look weird...
because I didn't sing it alone.
I thought I'd be at the bottom of the agony.
- It was different from last time. - I know.
- Her eyes suddenly looked alive. - I see.
It must be you.
- "It must be you." - I choose you.
- You knew it. - I loved it.
- I hugged her without realizing. - Right.
If you see those two people in the back...
(That's enough. Go home.)
- Lyn and Kyung Ho... - Move on.
- This interview is so long. - Hurry up.
- Okay. - We...
- It was nice to meet you. - Where are you planning to go next?
They're not done singing yet.
Get them another room or something.
- He's right. Give them more time. - I'll pay for them.
(It's on Lee Seok Hoon.)
- Seok Hoon! - Great.
- We need to do that too. - That's great.
Tell me if there's anything you need.
- Tambourine. - Tambourine.
I'll buy one for you.
- They want a tambourine. - He'll get her tambourine.
They want a tambourine until the end.
Applause for them again. Thank you.
Thank you.
- I can't believe this happened. - We only have 20 minutes left.
- You have to use the chance. - I can't believe this.
Would you like to try a challenging song?
- I'm confident. - What's a challenge song?
(It's an event that takes place in the actual karaoke.)
If you get more than 95, you get a free soda.
Along with three challenge songs,
we'll add one of Kyung Ho's songs,
- and one of Lyn's songs today. - Like that.
I'm thankful that this is most reliable.
- There's a possibility. - We'll go with this one.
- Do you choose this? - Be harmonious.
- How about you, Lyn? - I'm good too.
- Good. - Good.
(Lyn's final option)
("Back in Time", 2012)
(Kim Kyung Ho's "Forbidden Love", 1997 is going against it.)
(Uncompromising match)
(The die is cast.)
(Free soda if you score over 95 with the songs below.)
- Okay. - It's up.
- Please. - Here we go.
- It's a man. - Someone's entering.
Is that a man?
It's a man.
Men and women.
- Men and women. - They're couples.
Men and women.
It's a 50 50 chance.
Let's check Room One.
We chose "Forbidden Love", but they're couples.
("Forbidden Love" among couples?)
- Wait a minute. - Goodness.
(He's ruined.)
- You don't need to say that. - Goodness. Kyung Ho.
- Who'd sing it with their partner? - It has begun already.
- They saw it. - They saw it.
This one.
"Forbidden Love".
I don't even know that song.
- It's a challenging song. - I'm going to sing "Back in Time".
- A challenge song. - Let's try "Back in Time".
"Back in Time"? Okay.
"Back in Time".
It's "Back in Time".
- I feel like crying. - I'm going crazy.
Yes. That's good.
- There's no point. I told you. - Kyung Ho.
- Calm down. - Kyung Ho.
- Who'd sing my song? - Kyung Ho.
We still have time left.
- "Back in Time". - "Back in Time".
You're all the same.
It's 9:57pm.
It's very spectacle in Yeoksam-dong.
- For the next song... - Are they going to book it?
- They booked it. - Did they book it?
- Did they book "Back in Time"? - What is that?
- Let's see. - Then today, I will...
(He gave up.)
- Kyung Ho. - Kyung Ho.
You all expected it.
Goodness. What's wrong with you?
- Stay quiet. - He's emotional.
We came to Yeoksam for you.
- You wanted to come here. - Yeoksam...
(Proof)
That's why it's more humiliating.
(That's why it's more humiliating.)
Let's go to Yeouido and Gwanghwamun next time.
Lyn said she thinks she'll cry if they sing "Back In Time".
Lyn said before that she wants to place third today.
- I see. - And she's on the third place now.
- I might not be third. - Pardon?
- Everyone's sad. - I'm not confident. I'll be quiet.
- Look. - Seriously...
She's moody.
- Now, Room 2. - Room 2.
- Good. - You can go.
("Back In Time" by Lyn)
- 95. - I'm not sure...
- We have to see the score. - Be ready to take a picture.
Where's my cell phone?
(She's touched.)
- "Back In Time". - Okay.
- Put on Room 1. - Play Room 1.
- Play it. - What if they turn it off?
- No. - "Forbidden Love"...
- No. It's a challenge. - "Forbidden Love".
I think the boy's going to sing it next.
- The next song is "Forbidden Love"? - Yes.
Are we going to sing "Forbidden Love" too?
- "Forbidden Love". - Take a picture please.
Hurry up.
(She's extremely excited.)
- That too? - Hi.
- Hello. - Hello.
I'm Lyn. Thank you for singing my song.
Goodness.
- Awesome. - Awesome. Gosh.
- Thank you for singing my song. - Gosh.
- They're surprised. - They're way too surprised.
- They love it. - That's the reaction we should get.
- They're hugging each other. - That's the reaction we should get.
- I'll hug you, Kyung Ho. - That reaction.
- I'll hug you. - Hi.
- They love it. - Goodness.
- Thank you so much. - It's nothing.
- We booked it for this. - Is it because of this?
(This is the moment she's been waiting for all day today.)
She's really good.
(It's an unforgettable encounter for both the fans and the singer.)
(Her emotions melt naturally in her song.)
(It's 4D live.)
Thank you. I feel like I'm going to cry.
- Thank you too. - Thank you.
- I love you. - It's an honor.
It's weird.
Congratulations.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Congratulations.
You've tried the challenge song event.
How did you feel when Lyn entered the room?
I still can't believe it.
Do you sing her songs often?
- I was a huge fan of that drama. - I see.
I watched that drama when I was studying in Australia.
I love that song, so I sing it even though I'm not good.
You sing it even though you're not good.
Still... I feel like crying.
(She's suddenly overwhelmed.)
- Lyn was... - I...
- waiting for it. - She's very honest and tender.
I may look so dumb, but...
- I was very happy that you sang it. - No. You're very beautiful.
I know.
I'm sorry.
- Thank you guys. - She's happy that you sang it.
- Goodness. - She walked in as a surprise,
- His feet were blocking. - but his feet were blocking.
What were you going to do?
- He was blocking it. - Seriously...
why are you all crying?
(They're crying too.)
- Why? - All of a sudden.
- You planned this. - What's wrong?
Why are you crying all of a sudden?
- I'm sorry. - Everyone's crying.
It's crocodile tears.
Kyung Ho. No.
What are you talking about?
- They created it. - Stay calm.
- Don't say that. - Thank you again.
- Lyn and Soo Yong can go. - Yes.
(Lyn and Soo Yong can go home.)
Thank you guys.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Good job. You can give me the mic.
- Thank you. - Would you like some drinks?
- Drinks. She's very nice. - I'm leaving.
- Thank you, Lyn. - Yes. Bye.
(Lyn has left.)
- I wish I could do that. - Now...
- If I come here one more time... - Kyung Ho.
Do you want to use the challenge song chance again?
- Since it's the end of the year. - So you can make me feel it?
What if you try it, but it doesn't work?
- What does that make me? - Kyung Ho.
- Do you think I'm emotionless? - Don't do this.
I cry too.
What Kyung Ho said is right.
He wants to sing his song in the room.
- Yes. We should do that too. - Right.
You should do it.
- Fine. - Good.
- Okay. - Let's sit down now.
Is there a room with men?
- Are there men in Room 3? - Room 3.
How about we try the event in Room Three?
- I have a pride too. - Yes.
Event notice.
- I'll go with one song. - Good.
Which song do you choose? "Forbidden Love"?
I'll change it this time.
I'll choose "People Who Make Me Sad".
(Will he succeed his final challenge?)
- That song... - It's my second time on the show.
- After seeing Lyn, - Yes.
I felt overwhelmed. I want to hug them too.
- I know. - I'd really appreciate it.
- It's the dream of singers. - Right.
- In concerts or anywhere, - It's different.
it's different. Is it going up?
He went into put it up.
- That's crazy. - He's coming in.
(The owner is in.)
- There's an event. - Okay.
(I hope I get it this time.)
If you score higher than 95, we give you bonus time and free soda.
- By singing? - Higher than 95?
Only men can do it.
- Shall we try? - How can you sing it?
How? I can't do it.
- "How?" - "How can you sing it?"
(They have a bad feeling about it.)
- You know. - Come on.
Kyung Ho's songs are too difficult.
Even if they do know, they can't sing it.
- People do actually say that. - Yes.
The rumor was true.
What rumor?
Even when I was on "Immortal Songs",
only a few singers like Ki Young wants to try it.
Other people don't want to sing my song.
- Because it's too high. - They get compared.
They're having a conflict.
Now...
Did they choose it? Not yet, right?
- Now, Kim Kyung Ho. - It's Kim Kyung Ho.
It's Kim Kyung Ho.
(Please, please.)
- They're going down. - Now, Kim Kyung Ho.
- You have a lot of songs. - They can just sing one.
- Why do you have so many songs? - I have a lot of songs.
You really have many songs.
There it is.
(They found it!)
("People Who Make Me Sad")
"People Who Make Me Sad" is the next song.
- They booked the song. - Thank you so much.
(Their interest in his song is like much-needed rain.)
So this is how it feels. I'm getting emotional too.
- I didn't know. It's overwhelming. - Finally.
He must be... Won't they sing it? Why?
- Where did they go? - What's the matter?
(The phone suddenly rings.)
- Why is his phone ringing now? - They booked it...
- Why would they make us nervous? - Gosh.
They're making us so nervous.
Why is it so hard to hear them sing Kyung Ho's song?
- Seriously. - Why?
- Maybe my songs are too difficult. - I think...
that after this episode airs,
many people will sing your songs at a karaoke.
- His songs will be sung a lot. - Yes.
That's because they pity me.
That's not what I meant.
How can this be happening?
It's so hard to hear Kyung Ho's song to the end.
I mean, it's not exciting or thrilling.
I feel like my heart is burning inside.
(The savior comes back after the phone call.)
(Nervous)
(Will he play the next song now?)
- It's over. - All right.
- Please sing it. - Turn up the volume please.
I don't know.
The next song is...
(Could this end successfully?)
(Success?)
(Failure?)
("People Who Make Me Sad" by Kim Kyung Ho)
(They started singing.)
(Everyone congratulates him in one mind.)
- This is it. - Oh, yes!
(That's my song!)
(This is great!)
- Great. - I can't believe this.
I'm relieved now.
(The song is about to reach its climax.)
Come on.
- I'm so nervous. What should I do? - That's nice.
(Struggling)
Hurry. Go, and help them, Kyung Ho.
(They're counting down. 1, 2, 3.)
Let's go!
(Hello)
(He reacts enthusiastically.)
(My song finally found its owner.)
(Laughing)
(They give the mic to the original singer.)
(Viewers, Kyung Ho finally made it.)
(My gosh. This is unbelievable.)
(I've been longing for this desperately.)
(I wish this moment could last forever.)
He sings so well.
(It's exciting.)
Kim Kyung Ho is here. Please give him a hug.
- Let's give him a hug. - I can't believe you sang my song.
- I'm a huge fan of yours. - He's a huge fan of yours.
Is that so?
(This is the last song of Sing My Song.)
(The singer and his fan are creating a beautiful harmony.)
(His wish came true.)
That's good.
- Let's give him a hug. - Come here.
Let's give him a hug.
- I'm so happy now. - Let's give him a hug.
I've been wanting to do this so much until now.
- I feel like I'm about to cry. - Where have you been?
Congratulations.
(Kyung Ho finally succeeded.)
We don't have much confetti left.
We didn't see any room with two men in it before them.
They were the first.
That's not all. He's a huge fan of Kyung Ho's.
- Is that true? - He sang perfectly in tune.
Do you often sing Kyung Ho's songs at a karaoke?
I sing at least one of his songs whenever I go to a karaoke.
Always?
I told you so.
Did you mean to sing his song even if there was no special event?
I always sing his song as long as my throat is in good condition.
Exactly.
We found out that he sings well,
but it depends on his throat condition.
Seok Hoon said before...
that he felt much happier than he felt at his countless concerts.
I realized why he became emotional so suddenly.
I could see how it must've felt.
- Also, he sang so well. - He sang really well.
Kyung Ho didn't stop complimenting him.
"He sings my song so well. He's really good."
It's hard to find someone like him.
That's not all. He got a score higher than 95 points.
He's getting free drinks for the prize.
(96 points, Make sure to get 100 points for the next song.)
It seems that all of them were the last to go home.
- That's right. - Yes.
I watched every episode.
- Oh, I see. - Thank you.
I don't know about that because I haven't watched this show,
- Kyung Ho is still popular. - but you have a lot of fans.
There are so many people who are waiting for you to come back.
We're ready to welcome you back anytime.
Thank you.
(May Kim Kyung Ho last forever.)
- Thank you. That's so sweet. - Kyung Ho.
You have to go to see them. Okay?
This is so overwhelming.
I thought it was simply a fun variety show.
Thank you for letting me enjoy such a touching moment.
I'll work even harder from now on.
- Go, Kyung Ho! - Go, Kyung Ho!
Thank you so much. Thank you.
- Give him a hug. - Thank you.
(The best singers, thank you for dignifying Happy Together.)
(We're looking for Yong Man and Soo Hong's middle school friends.)
(Yong Man's friends, Hong Do Young, Lee Hoon Seob, Yoon Seok Kyoung)
(Soo Hong's friends, Cha Il Hong, Park Bong Seon)
