It's always better when we're together,
Happy Together!
Hello.
- It's good to see you again. - You too.
It's good to see you all again.
These days, Sae Ho is...
in the news for anything he said.
Was there a surprising news article?
"Will Cho Sae Ho Announce His Marriage in 2018?"
- This is the news article title. - You said you were lonely.
It's not like that. It's my wish.
I meant that I wished to get married in 2018.
Someone assumed that I might get married with a ghost.
I don't even have a girlfriend.
People wouldn't even have paid attention...
even if he was really going to get married.
- But now, everything he says... - That's not true.
Rumor has it you're as popular as G-Dragon.
- Me? - Yes.
You really shouldn't say something like that.
That's not true at all.
When you decide to get married,
will you announce it on this show or "Infinite Challenge"?
(Happy Together or "Infinite Challenge")
1, 2, 3.
(What could be Sae Ho's choice?)
2, 3.
"Entertainment Weekly".
- Are you serious? - Yes. On "Entertainment Weekly".
- "Entertainment Weekly"? - That's a wise decision.
- On an entertainment news show... - You mouthed "Infinite Challenge".
- No, I didn't. - You didn't?
- No. - Today,
we invited stars...
who are expected to become very popular in 2018.
Let's meet the actors with highest-level acting skills.
("Highest-Level Actors Special")
- Hello. - Welcome.
(Welcome.)
- Hello. - Kang Se Jung is here.
- Hello. - Welcome.
Jang Hyun Sung, Park Chul Min,
and Heo Sung Tae are also here.
Gosh. I thought you were the character of "Star Trek".
You really look like the character.
He's a legendary actor who livens up every drama he plays in.
He has a great sense of humor and an inexhaustible supply of ad-libs.
- Park Chul Min! - Park Chul Min!
It's nice to meet you all.
He played in almost all the successful movies and dramas.
He has a vast array of acting skills transcending good and evil.
Jang Hyun Sung!
Great.
From a member of a girl group Papaya...
to the queen of the daily drama that achieved...
25.8 percent of viewer rating.
She won all the viewers' hearts through "The Secret of My Man".
- Kang Se Jung! - Kang Se Jung!
- Hello. - You have to put stress on it.
At the age of 35, he quit his job at a conglomerate...
and turned his life around by starting his acting career.
He became successful through "The Outlaws".
The up-and-coming actor who attracts the most ticket buyers,
Heo Sung Tae!
(Heo Sung Tae, the actor who attracts the most ticket buyers)
These four stars are here with us today.
I heard Chul Min complimented us, the hosts of Happy Together.
- What did you compliment about us? - Is that true?
Well... This could upset you.
- Or it may be a compliment. - I have a feeling it'll upset us.
Please tell us.
- We'll take it as a compliment. - You all are standing out...
and keeping your positions because of your talents and competency,
not your appearances.
Excuse me, but are you criticizing our appearances?
I'm just telling you my honest opinion.
All four of you...
look a little misaligned.
Hang on a second.
- Our faces are misaligned? - I do have misaligned front teeth,
- but my face is misaligned? - I've never heard anyone saying...
that my face is misaligned.
What does that even mean?
It would be better if you call me ugly.
- Jae Seok looks ordinary, - Okay.
but he's like an incomplete bar on a music sheet.
- An incomplete bar? - An incomplete bar?
There's something missing.
You would understand what I mean if you look closely at him.
He's just a mess.
(I got you.)
In my hometown, people call a face like his a warped face.
- Like this. - A warped face.
What about Hyun Moo?
- I'm quite handsome, aren't I? - As for him...
Without his outstanding competency,
he wouldn't even have been allowed to be on TV shows.
He's not even allowed to appear on TV shows.
Unless he's talented, quick-witted, and charming...
- I guess I'm amazingly talented. - That's right.
He also looks a bit like a Greek man.
- A Greek man? - A Greek man?
You look like the famous sculpture.
- Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa? - Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa?
Do you want to have a war against us?
I only said what I honestly think about you guys.
- It's better than a mess. - What about Sae Ho?
- I'm grateful. - For what?
That he goes on with his life while staying positive.
(May Sae Ho's face shine all over the world.)
As I met you all, I also realized something.
I haven't met you all in one place like this before.
It's as if...
Let's say this shows the levels of facial impressions,
and the most optimistic faces are here in the center.
The four of you are in each of the corners.
We all have negative faces?
(Optimistic and negative)
(Optimistic)
We all have negative faces?
What are you doing with that box?
- Gosh. - You're going overboard.
- You're all precisely at the edge. - I mean...
- Are you here to ruin our show? - No.
You just said we have no hope.
I don't believe this.
As we have cable channels and comprehensive programming channels,
there are countless variety shows now.
But I don't think any other shows can beat the combination of you.
- When it comes to the appearance? - Yes.
It's a compliment, but somehow I feel like it's not.
You said you think you're the most handsome...
among all the supporting actors.
If you compare the four of you to movie stars,
you're like Yoo Hai Jin, Oh Dal Su, and Go Chang Suk.
- I'm... - You're Go Chang Suk.
- Right. - You're Chang Suk.
You're Hai Jin.
- You're Dal Su. - Jae Seok is Hai Jin.
You're Dal Su.
- What about me? - You're like Kim Sung Kyun.
If I compare you guys to actors...
It looks like you criticize everyone you see.
I only made a comparison in an objective way.
What do you think of Sung Tae?
If he hadn't become an actor and played an evil character,
I wonder how he would have made a living.
- He had a job at a conglomerate. - He worked at a conglomerate.
Isn't that why he quit his job?
(That's what I'm talking about.)
Oh, that's why... Gosh.
- He really criticizes everyone. - That's right.
To be honest, I think...
that my face is normal.
- It's an ordinary face. - Are you talking about yourself?
- Who are you talking about? - Myself.
I'm not sure if this is appropriate.
- Go ahead. - Shall I tell you?
- No pressure. - I'll say it without hesitating.
(How will the incomplete bar get back at him?)
Your face is ugly, but not memorable.
(His face is ugly, but not memorable.)
- I agree. - I'm not sure why.
He's ugly, but doesn't leave a strong impression.
He really looks ugly, but...
- Well, we're all ugly though. - You're an incomplete bar.
Right. That's me. All right.
Sung Tae was chosen as the actor who attracted...
the highest number of audience to his film in 2017...
according to a statistical survey.
He beat Song Kang Ho and Hyun Bin.
He was ranked sixth.
(His films attracted the sixth highest number of audience.)
You beat Song Kang Ho and Hyun Bin.
That's only because my films were released at the same time...
It was reported because you really were ranked higher than them.
However...
It's just that I played a supporting role in many movies.
The total number of audience of his films is over 16 million.
No, it's over 20 million.
- That's incredible. - I'm sorry.
- Apologize to him now. - It's about 23 million.
"The Outlaws".
("The Outlaws", 6.88 million)
"The Fortress".
("The Fortress", 3.84 million)
"The Swindlers".
("The Swindlers", 4.01 million)
"The Bros".
"Queen for Seven Days" in which I played with him.
"Witch at Court".
(The up-and-coming actor who makes his dramas and films a big hit)
I believe it's just a number.
But you remember the accurate number.
You corrected our mistakes.
I've been an actor for about 30 years,
but he has played in more popular dramas and films than I have.
- That's so sad. - Now, he's criticizing himself.
(He even criticizes himself.)
He's criticized everyone else, so he's criticizing himself.
I criticize everyone I see. This is nothing.
There's a secret behind Sung Tae's success.
What is it?
I heard your family helped you a lot.
Whenever my movie was released...
Since my elder brother is a military officer,
he brought the soldiers in his unit to the theater.
My mom run a store at a traditional market.
She bought other merchants pizza and went to watch my movie with them.
My elder sister works in an insurance company.
She brought all of her work colleagues.
People in the insurance industry know a lot of people.
- That's right. - So do his family members.
(His family members have a wide network.)
They're all working in the hub of networks.
Even your mother-in-law helps to promote your movies...
after she watches them.
What does she do to promote them?
When the movie ends, the audience members gather...
at the exit of the theater.
She grabbed my arm and said, "Stay here for a while."
"He's the one you saw."
Did she watch "The Outlaws"?
- She watched all of my movies. - I see.
I always try to get out of the theater quickly.
Oh, when you leave the theater after the movie ended?
Aren't people afraid of you because of your image?
- On the New Year's Day, - Yes.
my mom and I went to a sauna to celebrate the New Year.
We went in to separate saunas.
I was sitting in the tub without noticing it at first.
However, after a while, I looked around and realized...
that all other people were in the other tub.
There was no one else in the tub I was in.
(Everyone avoided him.)
I wondered what was going on.
I also heard the people in the other tub whispering to each other.
Why do you think they avoided me?
What kind of face did you make?
I bet you weren't smiling, but you were frowning.
Does anyone smile in the tub?
- That's true. He was alone. - I wasn't thinking about anything.
Wouldn't it be weirder if he was smiling when he was alone there?
It would be even harder to approach him.
He would look even scarier.
While I was having a meal at a restaurant,
I went upstairs to use the washroom.
I was walking up the stairs absentmindedly.
Someone was walking downstairs absentmindedly just like me,
and then he screamed.
(A customer screamed when he saw Sung Tae.)
He startled me.
(Sung Tae was startled as well.)
He passed me by hurriedly.
- He must've been scared. - Come to think of it...
What kind of face did you make?
I didn't... My face was expressionless.
- Some people get confused. - That's possible.
I think he was confused for a moment.
I'm sorry, but could you show us your expressionless face?
Please show us how you look when you walk around.
- I think I would look like this. - Like this?
- Don't try to smile. - Show the expressionless face.
(He looks scary.)
- Show the expressionless face. - The expressionless face.
(Do you call this an expressionless face?)
- He looks scary. - Exactly.
I wish I had a face like his.
- Why? - He has a memorable face.
I look like an ordinary person.
- Right. - I don't agree with that.
You also have a very unique face.
You have deep-set eyes,
and your eyes are quite close to each other.
He looks better than us,
but his face also looks a bit misaligned like ours.
I haven't seen him this closely before.
He looks so funny.
Why?
Whenever I turn my head toward him, I see such a big face.
(Sae Ho's large face)
He's sitting close to you.
Whenever I turn my head toward him...
(Just like the moon)
He's sitting close to you.
My face is swollen because of toxins.
For today's "Highest-Level Actors Special",
Actress Kang Se Jung is also here.
(We'd like to introduce Actress Kang Se Jung.)
Hello, everyone.
When I was invited to this show,
I heard the theme, "Highest-Level Actors Special".
All the other guests...
deserve to be called a highest-level actor.
- But I... - That's not true.
I don't think I'm good enough to be called that.
- No. You are... - I'm still at a beginner level.
- A beginner level? - A beginner level?
- I'm still at a beginner level. - An intermediate level.
But I'm doing my best.
We still remember your group Papaya.
- I see. - As some of you know, Se Jung...
- was a member of Papaya. - That's right.
(She was the youngest member of the group.)
- Really? - She was...
- the prettiest member. - She was also the youngest.
She was like Sung Yu Ri of Fin.K.L at that time.
- She was a member of Papaya? - Yes.
- You didn't know that. - Is it okay to put it like that?
Of course.
- Your group wasn't popular, right? - Sorry?
- I don't remember your group. - They were popular.
Papaya were popular too.
I clearly remember Fin.K.L, but...
- How could you say that to her? - It's because...
You're right.
- I meant... - That's too harsh.
- You said she wasn't popular. - How could you say that to her?
- I've never seen anyone say that. - Excuse me.
Stop it, everyone!
I meant that Papaya wasn't as popular as Fin.K.L.
That's right.
S.E.S had 3 members, and Fin.K.L had 4 members.
So we formed a five-member group to beat them.
I see.
- Your group had 1 more member. - We had 1 more member.
Your group had two more members than S.E.S.
- I remember your song. Honey - That's right.
That's right.
- You know her song. - Honey
How do you know the song?
- I just want to fall into you - Fall into you
- Honey - Honey
- That's it. - She's good.
- Please sing a bit for us. - Let's hear her sing.
I'll sing "Making Love".
(I can become feminine and lady-like)
(If you want)
- I wasn't the lead vocal. - I remember that song.
You couldn't keep singing.
She couldn't even finish one bar.
I only had a pretty face, not singing skills.
Back then, many singers needed the auto tuning technique.
- At that time, - Is that even possible?
they used the auto tuning tool...
He's right. We have never performed live.
(She suddenly confesses.)
- Gosh. - And you call yourself a singer?
- That made it possible. - It wasn't only Papaya...
- That's right. - Not many singers sang live.
- There was a reel-to-reel tape. - An image of a reel-to-reel tape...
- indicated lip-syncing. - It was more acceptable...
than it is now.
You must like girl groups.
- You sang, "Honey" - How do you remember that?
- Seriously. - I remember that.
"Honey" and "Promise me."
- That's Fin.K.L. - That's Fin.K.L.
That's right.
"That's right."
Why are the two of you...
saying annoying things...
and making yourselves unpopular?
- They surprised me. - "Promise me."
Why are the two of you doing my job?
What's wrong with you?
- Chul Min, don't do my job. - I will pay more compliments.
Like you mentioned earlier,
you went from being an idol singer to an actress.
You have been an actress for many years, right?
Yes, I have. It has been more than 10 years.
It has been many years.
You are now the lead of a popular drama.
"The Secret of My Love" has the viewer rating of 25.8 percent.
- That's incredible. - That's impressive.
It's the top among the dramas which air in that time slot.
It's the second-most popular drama...
after "My Golden Life".
I heard that playing the villain in a daily drama...
is different.
It's different. A villain in a daily drama...
talks a lot.
It's impossible to appear dignified.
You are right.
My character talks to herself.
(Talking to herself)
"Gosh, I am so annoyed."
That's right.
- That's right. - That's right.
- That's right. - I hate this the most.
When the call is ignored, they go, "How dare you ignore my call?"
(Talking to the phone)
- That's right. - No one talks like that.
- That's right. - When my character talks...
- No one talks like that. - That's one example.
You get instructions on what to do for each line.
That's right. If the other character says so-and-so,
I go,
"What? Did you say so-and-so?"
My character always repeats the words.
- That's right. - The exact same words.
The exact same words are repeated.
Middle-aged women enjoy daily dramas.
- When they do the dishes or cook, - That's right.
- they listen to the drama. - They listen with their ears.
That's why the lines are modified.
That's why the lines are said loudly.
Aren't there a lot of lines like, "Just you wait"?
"I will destroy you."
"I won't sit idly by."
- There are those kinds of lines. - That's right.
I have never said, "Just you wait."
My character's actions...
didn't match her words.
If the other character was in the restroom stall,
she placed a mop against the door so that it won't open.
The villain is all talk...
and no serious actions.
- One-dimensional actions. - Yes.
In daily dramas,
there are a lot of slapping scenes.
- There are a lot of them. - There are a lot of them.
She looks like a cheerful woman,
but her character is ferocious.
You even had to spit for a drama.
Yes.
In the drama I was in...
- Did you spit? - Yes, I did.
Where did you spit?
On someone else's face.
- It's not easy. - It was very hard.
- On someone else's face? - Yes.
- Really? - It's not a common scene.
Also,
- we have a lot of lines. - That's the worst.
Most scenes involve throwing water.
That's right.
(Take a deep breath.)
What do you think you are doing?
You would have had to spit for every retake.
I tried my best to get it right on my first try.
It was also important...
to take the viewers by surprise.
- That's right. - Yes.
You couldn't gather it in your mouth ahead of time.
She had to prepare herself.
Spit isn't visible unless there is enough.
- It isn't visible. - This is the method I used.
- It isn't easy. - When I said the line before it,
- my mouth went dry. - That's right.
However, there is a short pause afterwards...
in which I approach the other actor.
That's when I gathered spit.
(She is gathering spit.)
I gathered spit in my mouth...
and spat on my first try.
(She spat on her first try.)
It was so hard.
I can't believe you did that.
On whom did you spit?
Song Chang Eui.
- Chang Eui? - Yes.
Why are you so surprised?
He is a junior actor I admire.
I spat very well.
Thank goodness.
- Thank goodness. - It ended with one take.
I made sure it ended with one take.
It would have been terrible to spit twice.
You said that playing a villain...
made you unaware of what you do with your hand.
What did you do to a stylist?
When you have a role,
you become absorbed in it.
I was putting on heels.
- I only put them on for a shoot. - They hurt your feet.
A stylist said, "Hold on to me ad put on your heels."
- "Hold on to me." - She made that offer.
As I put on my heels, I suddenly grabbed...
What did you grab? Show us.
I grabbed her hair.
(Like this)
(Grabbing)
(That's how it feels.)
- It was out of habit. - You weren't aware of yourself.
- Grabbing hair had become a habit. - Your feet hurt.
Give us a real demonstration.
- Your feet hurt. - Yes.
- Give us a real demonstration. - Se Jung.
- Se Jung, hold on to me. - I am putting on heels.
I am putting on heels.
(The actress staggers as she puts on heels.)
(Screaming)
(It's a disaster.)
- That's how it happened. - That's how it happened.
Yes.
It's okay, Se Jung. You pay me.
You pay me. You can grab my hair all you want.
Why are you playing a stylist with Lee Yeong Ja's voice?
That's Lee Yeong Ja's voice.
You are barely hanging in there.
You should help me.
All right.
I am not making rabbit ears.
Rabbit ears!
Your hairstyle makes you look like an alien.
We are with an alien.
He even looks at Myung Soo like this.
His gaze is calculative.
I was looking at his sleep marks.
He looks like an alien.
You know,
you look like an alien as well.
- I do. - Yoda.
I was thinking E.T.
- He looks like Yoda. - My childhood nickname was U.T.
That's right.
You look like E.T.
All the MCs look like aliens.
You do too.
Don't act like it's just us.
Chul Min, You look like E.T.
I agree.
I do.
(They are brothers.)
(Apologetic)
I was so surprised...
when I saw a picture of you. Your body is like...
Kim Jong Kook's.
Really?
- Is she muscular? - Yes.
(How does she have that kind of a body?)
How does she do that?
It's a side plank.
Is that really a picture of her?
She is like an actress in a movie.
Actors often get...
- a lot of free time. - That's right.
- It's when you don't have work. - That's right.
It looks like you don't have any body fat.
When I worked out diligently,
my body fat percentage was 17 or 18.
Women's body fat percentage usually is 24.
You look very charming in those pictures.
- Really? - Yes.
- Should I work out again? - You look more charming.
Really?
You should take care of your own body.
Chul Min, while you are close to everyone here,
your soulmate is Yoo Seung Ho.
- Yoo Seung Ho? - Yes.
Isn't he young enough to be your son?
We are 26 or 27 years apart.
Yet you think he is your soulmate.
We were in a lot of works together.
We were in 2 or 3 movies and 3 dramas together.
We also worked together for "Leafie, a Hen Into the Wild".
It's an animated film.
We voiced the characters in it.
We are close because we met through a lot of works.
I am not very sophisticated...
or mature.
Seung Ho is mature.
That's why we are close.
Do you meet him outside of work?
He has come to watch my plays.
Even though he can't drink a lot,
we share drinks.
His kindness isn't learned.
He was born with consideration...
and altruism.
That's why I love him.
The heartwarming story is nice,
but you should apologize to Park Bo Gum and Song Joong Ki.
You forge their signatures.
My goodness.
I wanted to end this conversation on a heartwarming note.
There is no way he did that.
No way.
I didn't mean anything bad.
When I work with Bo Gum or Seung Ho,
people ask me for a favor.
They want autographs.
A lot of people ask.
In the beginning, I can ask for a few autographs.
However, since the leading actors have so many lines...
and the schedule is tight,
it's inconsiderate of me to keep asking for autographs.
I can't help but delay making the request,
but some people are desperate.
"It's my daughter's birthday the day after tomorrow,"
"but I was abroad."
"I want to give her Park Bo Gum's autograph."
However, I couldn't meet Bo Gum.
I said, "I can forge his autograph."
Did you tell the truth?
I told him, not his daughter.
"I can forge his autograph."
"Even if she sees Park Bo Gum's authentic autograph,"
"she wouldn't know the difference."
"How about that?"
"Please do that for me."
That's how I forged his autograph.
There was a ruckus the next morning.
His daughter was so happy.
He said she has never hugged him in such a loving manner.
He thanked me profusely.
That's when I gained confidence.
That's when he began to forge autographs in earnest.
- Do they look similar? - How similar are they?
They are pretty similar.
You scribble.
You are like an impersonator.
(Chul Min's forged autograph and Bo Gum's authentic autograph)
Since I get a lot of requests,
I realized that it shouldn't be used in a bad way.
That's why I add "Park Chul Min" in the end.
(Forged by Park Chul Min)
You make sure the forged ones are distinguishable.
He isn't doing anything illegal.
(The hidden signer)
Se Jung, you must have actors...
you want to work with.
Back in the days,
Hwang Jung Min and I...
Although we never worked together,
we used to go to the same hair salon.
One day, it was raining.
He had an umbrella, but I didn't.
He unfolded the umbrella...
and put it over my head.
He escorted me to my car.
I was a newly debuted actress.
- Even back then, - He was popular.
he was popular.
I was so touched and grateful.
I thought it would be nice to work with someone...
who is so considerate.
He was like Kang Dong Won in "Romance Of Their Own".
- That's right. - You were like Lee Chung A.
- That's right. - I bet he lifted the umbrella...
and smiled.
I know.
Chul Min, I heard that Ahn Sung Ki...
made you grateful once.
As a newly debuted actor, I appeared in about three scenes...
of "The Adventures Of Mrs. Park"...
as a character called Taegukgi.
Ahn Sung Ki was the best actor of the era.
The production crew borrowed a club...
for 72 hours and filmed day and night.
It was summer and the temperature rose to 36 to 37°C.
- It must have been so hot. - With the extras,
there were 200 people in a tiny club.
- It must have been sweltering. - It was the worst.
There was only one air conditioner...
because this happened 20 years ago.
Only Ahn Sung Ki, Shim Hye Jin, Shin Chung Sik,
and the director could stand in front of the air conditioner.
However, I am no good at enduring the heat.
I see.
My body moved to the air conditioner as soon as I heard, "Cut."
- Your body moved on its own. - No one did that.
- None of the extras did that. - It was too hot.
The head of production...
pulled me aside and said,
"This spot is for the leading actors and director."
"Please move out of the way."
I was humiliated and embarrassed.
I said, "I am sorry. I didn't know." Then I moved out of the way.
However, the shoot dragged on for over 20 hours.
- When the director yelled, "Cut," - You went again.
I moved unconsciously.
I am serious.
- It was too hot. - I don't even remember going there.
The head of production said, "Hey". That's when I came to my senses.
"What?"
"I am sorry."
- "I think I moved unconsciously..." - It wasn't done intentionally.
"since it's too hot."
He yanked me out of the way and said,
"I will send you home if you keep acting this way."
Ahn Sung Ki said at that moment, "Hey, Taegukgi."
When I went to him, he said,
"Let's practice our lines together."
Thanks to him,
I practiced my lines in front of the air conditioner.
Every time the shoot was paused, he called me to his side.
(Ahn Sung Ki continued to call him.)
Realizing I can't stand the heat, he called me over...
so that I can enjoy the cool air.
"He is my religion."
- I had that thought. - "He is my religion."
"He is like the Buddha." I had that thought.
I still respect him the most.
Thinking about Ahn Sung Ki makes me bow my head.
(It's heartwarming.)
The guests of the day have many experiences...
- in playing the villain. - That's right.
Chul Min, you play the villain too.
A cute villain. You do, right?
An annoying villain.
Was it "Iljimae"?
- "Iljimae". - "Iljimae".
- What was your character? - You played...
- a swordsman who walks sideways. - "The Return of Iljimae".
That was the name of the drama.
I played Wang Hweng Bo.
I loved that character.
- Did the character walk sideways? - My goodness.
Did you play a crab?
- I... - A crab?
You resemble a crab.
A snow crab.
(Chul Min, the snow crab)
The drama was based on cartoons by Ko Woo Young.
I played Wang Hweng Bo, who is the best at sidekicks.
- Wang Hweng Bo. - He is a villain.
His name basically means he is the best at walking sideways.
I walked sideways for all 20 episodes.
- Could you give us a demonstration? - How do you walk sideways?
How do you walk sideways?
His name means he is the best at walking sideways.
Wang Hweng Bo.
After he cast all other actors,
he chose me to play Wang Hweng Bo.
How would anyone else play Wang Hweng Bo?
"Chul Min, no one else can play Wang Hweng Bo."
"Please take on the role."
"You will have to walk sideways in all 20 episodes."
In all 20 episodes.
- It must have made him dizzy. - In the cartoons,
the character moves from side to side.
- It's hard to show it in action. - That's right.
He asked me to complete the walk in two weeks.
That sounds incredibly hard.
After many thoughts,
I went to the fish market...
to watch crabs in the tank.
Fencers walk sideways to attack.
That's why I met up with a fencer.
- There are similar ballet moves. - Ballerinas can move sideways.
I met up with a ballerina who was in...
a ballet company in California to practice.
I completed the walk in two weeks...
and went to the director.
When I showed it to him,
he burst out in laughter. He said, "This is it."
Would you show us how Wang Hweng Bo walks?
I am curious.
- We want to burst out in laughter. - My goodness.
Chul Min...
(Wang Hweng Bo appears.)
put a lot of effort into completing Wang Weng Bo's gait.
- How will he walk sideways? - Well,
I combined fencing moves, crabs' movements,
and ballet moves.
I said to the director,
"I will do the walk."
(Walking sideways)
(He keeps his eyes forward...)
(and moves sideways.)
You did this for 20 episodes.
I got used to it.
Can you move to the right?
How did you do this for 20 episodes?
For this, you consulted a ballerina from a ballet company in California,
a fencer,
- and crabs at the fish market. - Isn't this something...
you can do right away?
- We do this all the time. - We do this all the time.
We do this all the time for comedy.
I can go fast.
Show us again.
Should I go fast?
- Yes, please go fast. - Go faster.
(Fast)
(Serious)
I can do it too.
You are slow.
Let's start at the same time.
I will start from here.
- Let's see who gets there first. - Set, go.
[VIU Ver] E529 Happy Together "Happy Together Town" "Highest-Level Actors Special" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
- You were as fast as me. - Chul Min is fast.
- Really? - Chul Min is fast.
(Wang Hweng Bo came to life thanks to his studies and effort.)
I practiced the walk...
and went to Taiwan for the shoot.
You walked this way for 20 episodes.
- That's incredible. - On the first day of the shoot,
the director said he will shoot a long take.
(Bad news)
- A long take? - Yes. He used the full shot.
I had to walk over 500m this way.
Jung Il Woo walked straight...
- and I walked this way. - That's hilarious.
That's incredible.
That's hilarious.
- That's hilarious. - Seriously.
- That's hilarious. - A long take is the worst.
- He told me to walk 500m. - That's hilarious.
I told the director that I can't do it...
- because it overworks my pelvis. - I know.
- It must hurt your pelvis. - It ruins the balance of my body.
"If you finish shooting the scene with a single take,"
"I will do it. Don't do a retake."
"Have the staff members ready."
- You didn't want to do a retake. - No.
Il Woo walked slowly as he said his lines...
and I walked sideways as I said my lines.
After we walked 500m, he yelled, "Cut."
I yelled, "We are done, right?"
He said, "Chul Min, let's do a retake."
"Why?"
"The camera angle is no good."
- It drove me crazy. - I bet it ruined your back.
- Seriously. - The others walked normally.
Only you had to walk sideways.
In the middle of the drama,
I get captured by the guards.
- In the jail, - Jail?
I ask myself, "Why did I get captured?"
I come to the conclusion that walking sideways made me slow.
In the jail, I practice walking straight.
(It's an interesting story.)
My character learns how to walk straight...
and escapes from the jail.
When the guards come after him, he reverts back to walking sideways.
- That's hilarious. - That's old-fashioned comedy.
- That's hilarious. - For 20 episodes,
I walked sideways.
- That's incredible. - It's a funny story.
- It's so entertaining. - It's so funny.
Wang Hweng Bo was the only character who walked sideways.
People will look up the drama now.
Chul Min, you have been an actor for more than 30 years.
You still star in plays to work on your acting skills.
I am sure many people have watched it.
"The Story of an Old Thief".
Sometimes,
the reaction is so great...
that the sound of clapping...
I hear during the curtain call makes me want to pay the audience.
I gain so much energy...
- and happiness. - They give you energy.
I don't know if I am deserve them. I tell the junior actors,
"I feel like we have to pay the audience today."
You have never actually paid them.
If you give me 50 dollars, I will go and watch the play.
You want to go to get paid.
I am saying that's how I feel.
You must be angry.
Give me what you can afford.
Not asking for much.
(He endured years of obscurity.)
(He is an actor who always gives his best effort.)
There is nothing I don't know.
(He is an actor who acts with his heart.)
(The talented actor, Park Chul Min)
The villains you play differ.
- That's right. - Hyun Sung plays smart villains.
In "New Heart", he played an ambitious surgeon.
In "A Wife's Credentials", he played a shameless reporter.
In "Signal", he played an ambitious and pretentious man...
- who is addicted to lip balm. - Gosh, I really wanted...
to take that lip balm from him.
That character was so annoying.
In "Three Days", he played the chief of security...
who attacks the president.
You often played the elite villain.
You think about the health of your character.
I think about my character's educational background,
and daily routines.
- The character's daily routines. - Yes.
Which newspaper does he read?
Which website does he visit the most often?
I add and subtract these kinds of information...
so that I can bring the character to life.
We briefly talked about "Signal".
Your character was so annoying whenever he put on lip balm.
Did you come up with that characteristic?
It wasn't in the script.
My character meets Cho Jin Woong's character...
in the hallway of the police station.
Since the time is after lunch,
we talked about where our characters have been to.
I thought my character had lunch.
After lunch, you can pick your teeth with a toothpick...
or burp due to indigestion.
Your lips may be chapped because it's winter.
Since I hadn't planned it beforehand,
I asked...
all staff members and actors for lip balm.
A camera crew member...
- had it. - Lip balm.
Since the setting was...
10 years ago,
I removed the wrapping.
I removed the wrapping...
and used the lip balm.
(That's how the lip balm addict was born.)
(Jang Hyun Sung is the master of details.)
He usually plays the good-looking villains.
- He's the smart villain. - Right, he plays intelligent roles.
- When he plays smart characters, - But on the other side...
- Sung Tae, you usually play thugs. - That's true.
He played the boss of a Korean gang from China in "The Outlaws".
- He was the head of the gang. - Right.
- A sociopath-murderer in "Tunnel". - That's right.
- A con artist in "The Swindlers". - My gosh.
A shameless, pro-Japanese cop in "The Age of Shadows".
A subordinate who murders his lord in"Queen for Seven Days".
You only played the most inhumane characters in history.
Given how cruel his characters are, should he be in this episode?
- You should get a 40-year sentence. - His characters are so cruel.
He should be in prison for more than 40 years.
Is it possible you've served time already?
Like in real life?
Do you have your own tip for playing villains?
I wouldn't call it a tip.
Lee Bum Soo was my first acting coach.
He always tells me this phrase, "bubbling up".
- What does that mean? - Let me explain it to you.
- Feelings must bubble up from here. - I see.
He told me that shouting or frowning...
would be useless.
As long as my feelings start from my heart,
- I can express them in some way. - It will show.
- Acting isn't cooking, you know. - I always try to remember that.
- Can you give us an example. - For example, say the line is...
How could it "bubble up"?
- "Myung Soo, do you want to die?" - Okay.
"Myung Soo, do you want to die?" I shouldn't deliver it like this.
Let your feelings bubble up.
"Myung Soo, do you want to die?"
(Emotional performance)
- I'd say the line like this. - My goodness.
- Yes, I'll just die. - He used that expression for this.
- You must pull out your feelings. - This feels weird.
- I did feel something from him. - He's right.
I saw his anger bubbling up.
- Can you do your famous line? - "Do you know who I am?"
- Can you say it with your emotion? - Let it bubble up.
(This scene captivated the audience.)
(Here it goes.)
Do you know who I am?
(He wins them over.)
- My goodness. - Gosh.
- My gosh. - That was so cool.
- That was cool. - His acting was great,
and so was your reaction.
I'm a big fan of his film.
Our reactions must bubble up from our heart too.
(It's the duty of comedians.)
- It has to come from our heart. - That's right.
- It was the phrase of the year. - Right, right.
- "Do you know who I am?" Really. - Precisely.
Depending on the roles you have,
- you must say lines differently. - Exactly.
If you were playing an intelligent villain,
how would you deliver this line?
(Prosecution Service)
(Pause)
Do you know who I am?
(This is the version of the line by an intelligent villain.)
- Look at his eyes. - That was intimidating.
- That was scary. It really was. - My gosh, his eyes.
- He was scary. - Sung Tae's version was scary,
- but this version is scary too. - Yes, it was scary.
- Just now, - That one sounded annoying.
- you showed a better reaction. - Seriously.
No, I'm serious. It was really scary.
- Mild performances are scarier. - That's so true. I agree.
- Yes, mild ones can be scarier. - You were scary. He was annoying.
(Hyun Moo's bias plays a part.)
Chul Min, can you do the same line?
- Do it as an authoritative figure. - Sure.
Actually, I am very interested in the villain roles.
Really?
I was offered a role in "Clown of a Salesman".
That was the first offer I received for a villain role...
- after "Blood Rain". - I see.
This is a story of a salesman who sells medicine to old ladies.
My character constantly cornered Kim In Kwon to...
commit malicious acts.
It was so thrilling.
I've never seen myself with such eyes that were seen in the film.
- I saw how wicked I looked in it. - That thrilled you.
- I felt an odd pleasure from it. - I could imagine.
I auditioned for the role, but I didn't get it.
I was curious who got the role, but it was you, Chul Min.
- He didn't get the role. - I really enjoyed the film.
I really did.
(You heard that, right?)
Do yo feel better now?
You knew about this, didn't you?
Your legs are too short.
- He had the best villain roles. - I'm serious. I really enjoyed it.
- And yet, he wanted this role. - Your attitude is inappropriate.
He's playing the villain today.
(He's still in his character.)
- This is about Chul Min. - What is it?
He said there's someone he doesn't want to work with.
- It's Choo Sung Hoon. - Yes, Choo Sung Hoon.
I was filming "Operation Chromite" .
I had two action scenes, but I had to do them with him.
With Sung Hoon? My gosh, that's tough.
He told me that he was good at beating people,
but he was bad at pretending to hit people.
- He meant he'd really hit you. - It was like a warning.
That scared the wits out of me. I thought this wasn't right.
I went to the location while worrying about it a lot.
He told me that again.
"I can hit people, but I cannot pretend to hit them."
- He told you that again? - "It's dangerous for you."
He told me to get a double.
- He can't since he's a pro fighter. - Right.
But when the cameras film us up close,
- I can't use a double. - That's true.
I was scared to death.
His punch came in.
(Swinging)
That sound didn't come from his mouth.
- I bet it didn't. - It was from his swing.
- His fist brushed past my nose. - Seriously?
I felt as if my skin was getting skinned.
He didn't even hit my nose though.
He conveys depth with his eyes in this odd manner.
He gave me this cold-blooded look.
When he gives me that look, I feel the fear of death.
- And after that... - I bet you did a great job in it.
I barely managed to finish filming the scenes with him.
It got edited out.
How could they edit this out when you went all that trouble?
- Isn't that disappointing? - It was such a shame.
- I was so sad about it. - I bet you were.
I risked my life for it.
I had a feeling.
We briefly talked about "The Fortress" earlier.
- It was the language of Manchu. - Right.
(He perfectly played the general from the Qing Dynasty.)
When I was young, I had some exposure...
for Japanese, Chinese, and English, so I was quite used to...
- those intonations and accents. - Right.
I could somewhat pull off acting in those languages,
but the language of Manchu sounded like it was from another planet.
- You've never heard of it. - Right.
On top of that, I had to say it with emotion and act the scene.
- I bet that was the challenge. - It was hard to find a connection.
- Could you say a line, please? - This is so lame by the way.
Here's an example.
(The degree of difficulty is advanced.)
- There were lines like this. - I see.
- It's even hard to memorize them. - It sounds like a spell.
- It sounds like gibberish. - This is how I memorized them.
Just like you memorize the chemical symbols,
- say that this is the line. - Okay.
"Koo Ha Ra does peekaboo."
(It sounds similar.)
- "Koo Ha Ra does peekaboo." - That's really catchy.
As for the second line,
- there was a game called StarCraft. - Okay.
There are these Siege Tanks in the game.
When it turns at a 15-degree angle,
- it goes like this. - Okay.
I'd say, "Siege" and imitate the sound.
- That's easy to remember. - My goodness.
- My gosh. - A trick you only knows.
"Koo Ha Ra does peekaboo."
- "Siege Aku". - "Siege Aku".
- After those... - And then...
- Into has to bow down three times. - That's right.
I have to count to three in that language.
1 is "uhmoo". 2 is "joouh".
Three is "illan".
- "My mom..." - Okay.
"picks up an egg..."
"on the road."
- I'd make a sentence. - "An egg".
- What a surprise. - "Mom picks up an egg on the road."
I can memorize them quickly.
- I see. - This way, it's more fun.
- "1, 2, 3." - Right.
- Right. I can memorize them fast. - I see. He's right.
"1, 2, 3."
- What does the first line mean? - I'd put those aside then.
Let me see. That meant...
(This is the downside of a mnemonic device.)
- What dose it mean? - Hey, excuse me.
You memorize the lines like a robot!
- You acted like a robot. - That question caught me off guard.
How could you not know what that means?
- Koo Ha Ra... - Chul Min just...
- yelled at him. - My gosh, Chul Min.
You must act with your heart.
- "Don't come without the prince." - I see.
- That's what the first line means. - Yes, this is it.
Students do this exercise during acting classes.
It's called Gibberish Exercise.
- It's not the language we use. - Right.
- You just say nonsense, - That's right.
- but you must convey your feelings. - I know that one.
- That's how I felt. - That's part of the classes?
That's part of the curriculum.
Hyun Sung sounds like the smartest one here today.
I've known him for 30 years. My gosh, he's so cool.
For example, you could make it funny.
(Talking gibberish)
(He speaks a language from another planet.)
You only speak with your feelings.
This really sounds like a different language.
They'd say things like this.
(It's to learn how to express emotion.)
- Could you make it sound serious? - Could you do it?
If I were to say something serious...
(Speaking gibberish)
Okonomiyaki?
- I'd deliver the lines like this. - That was nice.
This is the exercise.
Your first line sounded similar to "a chance to goof around".
- Seriously, Sae Ho? - He really did.
- "A chance to goof around". - How could you say that?
(He only speaks what he hears.)
I heard you prepared a lot to act scenes speaking Russian too.
- That's not it. - I heard for your previous job,
you worked at a company in Russia.
Did you really work at a conglomerate?
Yes.
I heard he worked at LG Electronics.
- Really? - That's impressive.
I majored in Russian Literature.
- I see. - Then you must be good at it.
- All right. - I sold TVs in Russia.
- You sold TVs in Russia. - I did.
Then did you quit your job even though you were successful?
Yes.
Because you wanted to be an actor?
- Are you questioning him? - How many hosts do we have today?
- I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. - I was just so curious.
It's all right.
- When I was young... - I thought this was an audition.
Seriously.
- Today, - Right.
- I managed to get a word in. - Today,
- he's like Brave Brother. - I apologize.
- I thought this was an audition. - I was really curious.
I think the language played a role. Speaking another language...
isn't just saying some words that you simply memorize.
- Right. - You must understand its culture,
so the viewers sympathize with you. Pronunciation isn't that important.
- That's true. - As long as they feel connected...
My experience at the company helped me a lot when I was acting.
- Thank you. - No problem.
- I didn't curse. - I understand.
No, that wasn't Russian.
- I've never said this word before. - I see.
How could you say that?
Could you teach us, please?
- What about simple greetings? - Just simple greetings.
I bet he's good at it.
Besides, a lot of people watch our show in Russia.
- How do you know that? - Really?
I'm sure someone must've seen it.
- At least 1 person must've watched. - There must be at least 1 person.
- Why are you always right? - They just blurt things out.
Of course. Some people in Russia watch our show.
Even people near the Black Sea watch.
(He's ready.)
Let me introduce myself. My name is Heo Sung Tae.
I'm a Korean actor.
I'm not a bad guy.
My goodness.
Don't be scared of me.
I don't harm other people.
(Learn from him if you can't speak Russian.)
- Russian... - You'll teach people Russian now.
Jackie Chan might call you up for the "Russian War Three".
He might?
- "Russian War". - "Russian War".
- Because it has "Russian" in it? - I like this kind of jokes.
- "Russian War". - "Russian War".
Then can you say, "Do you know who I am?" in Russian?
- "Do you know who I am?" - He's getting ready.
Do you know who I am?
(It sounds perfect.)
Isn't that a dialect from Yanji?
- Like Hyun Sung said, - That sounded so cool.
- even though the word is different, - Right, right.
- we could feel it. - That was great.
- His eyes changed again. - I see.
- He's very smart. - He could film a movie like this.
But seriously. He's really smart.
When he was in school, he was at the top of his class...
- a few times. - He really was a smart student.
No wonder.
I hate losing.
When a student I didn't like got the highest mark,
I couldn't allow that.
- You were really competitive. - That's still impressive.
I even studied in karaoke.
- My gosh. - You studied in karaoke?
Yes. When my friends were having fun, I'd study.
My gosh, I'm bragging about myself.
- If you were at top of your class, - It happened a few times.
- you are smart by default. - Exactly.
That's why they call me the Monster.
- Wait, then... - My goodness.
- You're good at bragging. - You said everything yourself.
- I was mistaken. - He's playing innocent.
- No, no. - You keep feeding us clues.
He is shy about it,
- but he still brags about himself. - He kept giving us the information.
We didn't know that people called him the Monster.
- Isn't that a bit over-the-top? - I agree.
He was at the top of his class.
Who hadn't been at the top of their class?
- Have you gotten the highest mark? - Have you then?
- Yes, only once. - Really?
- I was a junior in high school. - You got it in front of the class?
- It was for mathematics. - We don't need to go in detail.
Why don't you wrap up the story?
That's it.
We'll invite people with the highest marks when the new semester begins.
We'll give you a call then.
(Come back again.)
- Bring your report cards. - Let's call it a day right here.
You went to a prestigious college and had a great job.
- Your life was on a great track. - I know, right?
Out of the blue, you quit your job.
I'm sure his parents were against it.
- Right. - Seriously. This industry...
- You quit to become an actor at 35. - Right now,
- things are risky in this industry. - You were 35.
You pursued this path when you'd been married for six months.
I applied for the acting competition on TV as a joke.
(Becoming an actor was just a dream to him.)
I decided to follow my dream.
(When he took a step forward to follow his dream,)
(he became an actor.)
(Heo Sung Tae...)
(passes the round.)
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
But there wasn't a guarantee that you'd make it in this profession.
- Then what about your family? - Okay.
- You were married for six months. - Yes.
- What did she say? - Well, everyone tried to stop me.
My mom even hit me.
- She cried too. - My goodness.
I actually cried and acted in front of my mom.
I showed her about 5 or 6 performances.
- I was begging for her approval. - You acted in front of your mom?
- Your mom tried to stop you, but... - What did you tell her?
- you acted? - I said, "Look. I'm good at it."
"I'm good at it."
- Do the acts. - What did you do?
- What did you do? - What kind of acts did you do?
Pretend that you're his mom. Say, "Hey, you punk."
- Hey, you punk. You quit your job. - She's good.
- How will you make a living now? - That's right.
- Why did you do that? - What?
Why did you do that to me?
I worked for you for years like a dog!
You said that to your mom?
I worked for you for years like a dog!
(His mom must've been perplexed.)
How could you say that to your mom?
- You said that to her? - How could you say that to her?
- I know this scene! - But the thing is...
This is the scene Lee Byung Hun did in "A Bittersweet Life".
- I know that. I know it. - Your mom must've been scared.
You acted the scene for her.
What did your mom say?
- I bet she gave you her approval. - What did she say to you?
- She hit me and scolded me more. - She...
- I bet she hit you more. - She did.
- The solution... - I couldn't get her on board.
What about your wife?
Fortunately,
my wife is really cool.
- What a relief. - That mustn't have been easy.
She tries not to worry.
- That's amazing. - What a relief.
- She gave you her approval. - Yes.
- She's great. - When did your mom approve of it?
I show up in "Masquerade" for a second.
- 1 second? - Yes, 1 second.
Which scene? For which character?
I'm the one who burns the body.
- The smoke covered my face. - It covered your face.
I show up for a second.
- You were in "Masquerade". - Yes.
She wasn't happy when she saw the film.
After that, when she came over during the holidays,
my wife who was clueless suggested watching the film...
- and played the movie. - My gosh.
This is what happened that day.
When I showed up on the screen, my wife, who didn't read the room,
paused the movie, so my mom can see me.
That requires skills.
Exactly, but my mom went like this.
My mom didn't say, "Oh, really?"
She went, "Okay."
She looked really disappointed. After that, I felt terrible.
- That's why I don't talk about it. - I see.
Then since when did she seem happy about your job?
- Since "The Age of Shadows". - "The Age of Shadows"? I see.
- That was a great film. - I agree.
My wife said if I don't do this, I am not her husband.
(Because he had a supportive family...)
Congratulations.
(Sung Tae is able to act with distinguished actors...)
(and radiate his presence.)
Sung Tae, you dreamed of becoming an idol singer?
- No, no. - You look too scary...
- to become an idol singer. - He's denying it.
- Isn't he scary to be a singer? - He is.
We need scary-looking idol singers.
- He's too scary to be a singer. - If he pursued to become a singer,
- Scary Idol Singer. - he would've...
- What? "Scary Idol Singer"? - Scary Singer.
How could you say that? That's too mean.
Unbelievable.
- Scary Singer. - "Next up is Scary Singer!"
Let's give it up. Scary Singer is ready to sing.
Please elaborate on this.
It was when I didn't know better. I was in middle school.
I hung out with friends who liked to dance.
We formed a dance crew.
- Seo Taiji and Boys. - Seo Taiji and Boys.
- We did Hyun Jin Young's routine. - I see.
We also did Tak and Jun's routine.
- Tak and Jun? - My goodness.
- I haven't heard that in ages. - Tak and Jun?
- Koo Jun Yup was in it. - That's right.
Tak and Jun.
Not that many people know the duo.
We ought to invite them some day.
I forgot their routine now.
Chul Min remembers the walk he did in the drama.
- Please show us. - If you dance, he'll do the walk.
I heard he can do the routine for Wanna One's "Pick Me".
We should see that.
- Okay. - Yes!
(A dancer from the old days)
(How will Sung Tae dance for "Pick Me"?)
The man of the hour tonight is me
(Shaking)
(Unlike his intense performances, it's cute.)
This is killing me.
(I'm the man of the hour in the film industry.)
What do I do here?
(He's full of charms.)
- Do Tak and Jun's routine. - He's good.
- Sung Tae. - I was terrible.
Why didn't you face the front when you were dancing?
My wife is such a big fan of Kang Daniel.
Why doesn't Chul Min dance to Papaya's song?
- He'll dance to it? - Papaya's song?
- All right. Let's do that. - He will do everything.
(What kind of performance will he show us?)
(Se Jung tries to remember the choreography.)
Chul Min, why don't you dance to it?
We'll tell you when to join.
- This will be a long take. - "Making Love".
1, 2, 3, 4.
(She hasn't lost her touch.)
(Let Chul Min pass by.)
(He goes around the stage during the long take.)
(This is the new era of dancing.)
He's amazing.
2, 3, 4.
She's lovely.
(She's still adorable.)
Chul Min.
(The pair walks sideways.)
Hold on.
All you had to do was just pass by.
- He looked like a drunk. - "A drunkard"?
You should've just passed by her, walking sideways.
Why did you go and ruin her routine?
We told you to just pass by her.
- Let's give it up for them. - Okay.
Thank you for the dance.
Sung Tae, you wanted to become an actor.
- You came to Seoul for your dream. - Yes.
I heard you did many part-time jobs when it didn't work out.
At colleges or event halls,
there were booths where workers demonstrated the electronics...
and where people could try the products in the afternoon.
- To prevent burglaries... - Right.
Someone had to stay and keep watch during the night.
That was when I could accept the situation I was in.
- What was it about? - The supervisors were either...
recent recruits of the company or assistant managers.
Had I stayed at the company...
I was in line to get the general managerial post when I quit.
But that wasn't me anymore.
I'm just a man who came for the part-time job for two days.
The supervisor wasn't rude, per se.
- But he wasn't friendly either. - He wasn't friendly when talking.
"You can sit over there."
"Give me the phone when it rings."
"Don't doze off." When he was talking to me like that,
I felt... I'm sure he didn't mean anything by that.
If I met him when I was still working at the company,
- he wouldn't have... - Would he act the same way?
It'd be impossible for him to treat me like that. At that moment...
(He'd be treated differently.)
At that moment,
I realized where I was standing.
- Right now... - I was...
- You're all chocked up. - I cried all night in the booth.
That night, I couldn't stop crying. I was...
- You're crying even now. - It was so cold.
That's when I faced reality.
But you didn't give up on your dream of becoming an actor...
and worked hard, right?
Yes, that motivated me.
- That... - It motivated you.
- That was your motivation. - Yes.
Because of what I experienced, I want to work harder.
It turns out that many of you also had part-time jobs.
I heard you sold strange items, Hyun Sung.
He's famous for the nose hair trimmers.
- Nose hair trimmers? - Hey, let's trim the nose hair.
How did you sell those?
- I need a new one. - This is a funny story.
I used to be a salesman too.
The product that I sold the most was the nose hair trimmer.
I had electric nose hair trimmers.
- The electric ones? - They were this big.
- You trim with it when it spins. - That's how it works.
At that time, each one was about three dollars.
Even if other theater actors tried to help me out,
they couldn't buy an expensive one.
That's why a lot of them bought nose hair trimmers.
Back in the days, Kwon Hae Hyo bought one from me.
- His sister... - Okay.
was using it to trim her nose hair.
She heard that it was a good product without any defect.
(Entangled)
(A surprise attack of the trimmer)
The trimmer got entangled in the hair.
She told me that her brain was going to be pulled out.
It's because the hair was rough.
- Her hair was too rough. - Yes.
I guess so.
When I heard that, I felt really bad.
After that incident, I excluded the trimmers from the list.
(Is this it?)
- I guess it was defective. - What is this?
I don't see the connection...
between this story and his emotional story.
I thought there was a big story behind it.
(It's moving toward funny stories.)
Be careful.
- You know, his son is handsome. - Yes.
- His nickname is Little Joong Ki. - Precisely.
There's his picture.
(He's a handsome boy.)
- He's really handsome. - He's big now.
- He's big. - He could be a celebrity.
- He did "The Return of Superman". - He was on it.
- He used to be on that show. - He's so much bigger now.
Doesn't he want to be an actor?
He doesn't say that he wants to be an actor.
But he is curious about what actors do.
He's very interested in professions in general.
He sometimes wants to be a writer.
He sometimes wants to be a firefighter.
Will you not oppose the idea if he wants to be an actor?
My father wasn't happy when I wanted to become an actor.
But when it comes to this profession,
you can't stop the person from pursuing it if he wants to do it.
- Right. - If he wants to do it.
We talked with four great actors today.
- It was really fun. - It was very fun.
It was fun.
Se Jung, are there genres you want to play in the future?
I've acted in a period drama.
But not for a very long time.
So I want to do more of it.
As you wished a while ago,
you will be able to act with Hwang Jung Min soon.
- Thank you. - I can feel it.
I've played too many villains.
I think I've done it enough.
I realized today that he has a very naive look.
I think a good character would suit him well too.
I want to play a villain.
- You want to play the villain. - I want to play many villains...
and feel the excitement I felt...
while acting on "Clown of a Salesman".
I actually want to play...
some comical characters he always plays.
- I think you'd be good at it. - He's really good at it.
We'd like to thank Chul Min, Hyun Sung,
Sung Tae, and Se Jung.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(Sing My Song will begin in a minute.)
We are...
- The Legendary Big Mouth. - The Legendary Big Mouth.
(Sing My Song)
Have you all been well?
Of course we have been well. We have good news.
- We have good news. - Happy Together used to be...
- the only show Soo Yong was on. - Right.
But he's soon to join an agency.
(Congratulations to Soo Yong!)
Finally, he's found his nest.
- How many years did it take? - But we have to be careful.
One of the people from the agency is here.
- Yes. - According to him...
This is actually a confidential information.
They are just about to sign the contract.
We thought they already did, but the contract begins in March.
- So today is important. - So today is very important.
He needs to pass the test.
He needs to pass this final test for them to sign the contract.
- And this is the final test. - The final test.
Isn't that what athletes go through?
- No, but... - He's a celebrity.
- Soo Yong has to... - Does he have to get tested too?
- You have to talk well today. - They already...
monitored my performance in the last episode.
- This is already interesting. - Every staff was given a paper.
- Really? - They were asked to watch it...
and write down my strengths and weaknesses.
But they couldn't write anything.
- Why not? - Why is that?
- They couldn't see anything. - I didn't talk.
So the monitoring was delayed for one week.
One person wrote his strength.
- What was this strength? - "He's calm."
Right.
- That's his one strength. - He doesn't talk much.
- He's quiet. - He's calm for a celebrity.
He's calm and quiet for a celebrity.
Do you know where we are today?
- I have to complain. - Why?
We came here again. Are you trying to make him a congressman?
We are in Suyu-dong again.
- Suyu-dong again. - I...
spent my childhood and early days of my career here.
It's my hometown.
It's where I spent most days of my life. This is Suyu-dong.
(This place is where Jae Seok grew up.)
(It's Suyu-dong of Gangbuk-gu.)
The youngest writer is in charge of booking the place.
And she lives in this town.
She doesn't bother traveling far.
- We... - She looks around only in her town.
Why... Who is she?
- We need to kick her out. - Who is she?
- Let's... - This is frustrating.
It's our third time to come here.
Her name is Jung Mi Rae.
I thought she keeps choosing this area for me.
But it turned out it was because she lives here.
- The youngest staff... - Within 2km radius.
We can't say anything,
but our eyes are on you.
Let's get started now.
Today is Beauty and the Beast Special.
- Beast. - Beast.
- Beauty and the Beast Special. - Like the movie.
Let's meet the singer in the first room.
In the first room is Gianna Jun of rock music scene.
- Is it a lady? - A lady?
- Is it Seo Moon Tak? - Seo Moon Tak?
- She's the famous female rock star. - She's one.
I can't tell if this person is a woman or a man.
It's Kim Kyung Ho.
- Kim Kyung Ho? - Is it... It's a man.
He's too big to be Kim Kyung Ho.
That person doesn't look like a woman.
It's a man.
He's a man.
- It's Park Wan Kyu. - Park Wan Kyu.
Isn't he Wan Kyu?
He's Wan Kyu, isn't he?
("Forbidden Love" by Kim Kyung Ho)
(Is he the charismatic rock star Park Wan Kyu?)
- It's a woman. - It's not Park Wan Kyu.
It's not Wan Kyu's voice.
- I got it. - Who is it?
Maya. Maya.
It's a man.
- It' not Maya. - He's a man.
- Isn't it a woman. - It's obviously a man.
It's a man.
It's Kyung Ho.
It's not Kyung Ho.
It's Wan Kyu.
- You got it. - It's Wan Kyu!
- It's Wan Kyu. - Really?
- It's Wan Kyu. - It's Wan Kyu.
- His voice is different. - He made his voice thin.
- It's Wan Kyu. - He's deliberately making it thin.
I shouldn't have said it.
It's Wan Kyu.
- You're his team now. - Thank you, Soo Hong.
(Park Wan Kyu)
(He's known for his sorrowful voice.)
(He's the singer of "Love of a Thousand Years".)
- Soo Hong did well. - I just remembered Kyung Ho.
- Kyung Ho failed him. - Good for him.
It turned out well.
He specializes in rock stars.
- He specializes in rock stars. - It's Kyung Ho's song.
(He's good.)
He's good.
(He sings his friend Kyung Ho's song.)
(He's nervous.)
(Promise me)
(He's immersed in it.)
(His voice explodes.)
(I am here.)
He's here.
(Welcome)
- Have a seat. - Wan Kyu. Have a seat.
Why do I keep choosing rock stars?
He's Gianna Jun of rock music scene.
- It's Wan Kyu. - Look at his silky hair.
His hair is... Can I touch it? His hair is amazing.
He must've gotten his hair treated.
Have you seen the episode Kyung Ho was on?
- I have. - What did you think?
When he's with me,
he is very boastful.
- Is he? - Is Kyung Ho boastful?
"I am much more popular than you."
But he didn't get to go home.
- Right. - I called him and teased him.
Did you laugh at him?
It felt good.
- Kyung Ho couldn't go home. - Right.
You ended the shoot...
to save on electricity.
To save on electricity.
He's our type. He said we ended the shoot to save on electricity.
I am going home early.
Are you going home early?
- Are you sure about that? - What will be your rank?
In which area do you think you will do well?
In which area do you think your song will be popular?
Which area would it be?
The industrial complex area.
(His area would be the industrial complex area.)
Where industrial workers are.
- Yes. - After doing...
hard work, they would...
sing your song to de-stress.
- Right. - They will sing their fatigue away.
- The redevelopment areas. - Yes.
So not the area populated by white collar workers.
Never.
- It would never work there. - Yeouido or Gwanghwamun?
- No. - You need blue collar workers.
- I... - He hates those areas.
- He hates those areas. - I hate those areas. The place...
I hate the most is where Kyung Ho got defeated.
- Yeoksam. - In front of a women's university.
- In front of a women's university. - In front of a women's university.
- He described the area as... - That's a graveyard for you.
- "where Kyung Ho was defeated". - "Defeated".
He's come to take revenge on his friend.
Please don't be mistaken. Anyway,
- he prefers the industrial area. - Yes.
- All right. - The industrial area.
- Cheers. - In the second room,
there's a handsome Asian man and a man with a sweet voice.
Are there two?
But...
- Who are they? - Wait.
Isn't it H.O.T's song "Candy"?
- Are they both men? - They are both men.
Are they both men?
They are very cheerful.
- I have no idea. - They are very cheerful.
Ryang Hyun Ryang Ha.
- Ryang Hyun Ryang Ha? - Ryang Hyun Ryang Ha.
(I didn't go to school)
(They do dance like them.)
(They are dancing in perfect sync.)
(Who is the Asian handsome man and the man with sweet voice?)
- Who could it be? - Who is the Asian handsome man?
- UN. - UN?
It's not UN.
- Really? - Their group name went from...
3 words to 5 words.
Their group name changed.
- Highlight. - Highlight.
All right.
- It's Highlight. - It is them.
They went from Beast to Highlight.
- Right. - You got it.
It's Highlight.
(Lee Gi Kwang and Yang Yo Seop)
(They are the veteran idols with 10 years of experience.)
(Their hit songs include "Shock", "Beautiful", and "Fiction".)
(They are hit song makers.)
Yo Seop.
It's Yo Seop and Gi Kwang.
Hello. Hello.
Yo Seop. Gi Kwang.
Hello.
Do you know who you are teamed up with?
- Who do you think it is? - I am very curious to know.
Really? Who do you...
want to be a team with?
The man who always goes home early.
How about you, Gi Kwang?
I want to go home early too.
(I knew it.)
- Of course. - I was really shocked.
The difference in their face sizes is unbelievable.
I am standing closer.
Why don't you stand next to each other?
Stand together.
(It's chilling.)
All right.
Yo Seop and Gi Kwang is teamed with Yong Man.
(They are teamed up with Yong Man.)
Cheers.
My goodness.
Yo Seop and Gi Kwang are full of energy.
- They're great. - People love Highlight.
People love them.
Why did you describe him as "Asian handsome man"?
- I know the reason. - What's the reason?
- Really? - In 2016, they did a vote.
- Right. - He was chosen as the handsomest.
- That's right. - Bo Gum was on the list too.
I guess there weren't many candidates to begin with.
What?
- There were many. - How many were there?
He beat Lee Dong Wook and Park Bo Gum.
He's the handsomest man in Asia.
My goodness.
He is the Conqueror of Asia.
- The Conqueror of Asia? - The Conqueror of Asia.
He's conquered Asia with handsome looks.
That's why he's the conqueror.
But people might misunderstand.
You released "Plz Don't Be Sad" as Highlight.
("Please Don't Be Sad" is Highlight's most famous song.)
You have a galaxy of songs.
That's such an outdated expression.
(His expressions are falling behind the time.)
They are the best in different ways.
- He's the handsomest. - He's the most outdated person.
The handsomest and the most outdated.
By the way, Seok Jin sings "Plz Don't Be Sad" very well.
He always sings it to us.
- Really? - Yes.
Plz don't be sad
Just keep going
(What?)
- That's how I sing it. - That's how he sings it.
- You got half of it right. - Right?
That's how I sing it.
- He sang it 12 times a day. - I kept singing.
I heard it for the first time today,
and it was very absorbing.
If you keep copying his style, you might actually sing like this.
- Right. Right. - You have to be careful.
We can't get used to it.
It might stick.
- Be careful, Yo Seop. - Isn't it nice?
You have to be careful, Yo Seop.
Do whatever it takes. Wash your ears if you must.
- We have to be careful. - You really do.
I heard Wan Kyu was once humiliated because of Highlight.
It was before they were Highlight.
It was when they were still Beast.
I was on "I Am a Singer".
I bragged to my child...
that I won.
I bragged about it to my daughter.
- And? - I told her I won again.
She said, "Since you seem to have become popular,"
"go get me an autograph of Beast."
- Your daughter asked you. - Yes.
So...
- at the time... - Did you get it for her?
I approached Yoon Du Jun.
(He approached Yoon Du Jun.)
I offered him my autograph...
in return for his.
You wanted to exchange autographs.
You could just ask for it.
When I said that, Du Jun said, "I'll give it to you."
For his daughter, he's just her dad.
- She sees him every day. - Right.
So I don't like them too much.
Right.
They're rivals.
He's got a sense of rivalry. It's great.
So he doesn't like them.
For the first time on a talk show,
the talk went the wrong way.
- It ended strangely. - He...
He's come here to take his revenge.
He's come to take revenge on many things.
He's filled with vengeful spirit.
I'm sorry, but Soo Yong.
- This is very important for you. - It is very important.
Why don't you participate in the talk?
I don't have my team yet.
- You're waiting. - I am waiting.
The agent is watching you with a nervous look.
He left three minutes ago.
Really?
He gave a dry cough and left.
- He gave a dry cough. - He did this and left.
That means he has nothing to report.
(I was calm, just like the rumor.)
- All right. - Should we check the next one?
I think this person is going to be a beautiful girl.
Who is this monstrous duo that dominated the music charts?
("I'll Go to You Like the First Snow" by Ailee)
(They've got mellow emotions.)
(His voice is husky.)
- It's... - It's Ailee's song.
- First of all... - The duo...
sings so powerfully.
- They are great singers. - They are good.
They are playing with it.
(Love)
- Isn't it them? - Right?
Was it GG9?
(Who?)
What?
(Does he mean GB9?)
GG9.
You almost got it. You're nearly there.
They're not GG9.
I know who they are, but I refuse to say it.
You're right. They are GB9.
They are GB9.
(GB9 is here.)
(GB9)
(They are a duo armed with mellow emotions.)
("GB9's 'I Hope It's Breeze' Re-enters the Music Charts.")
(Their songs have been remaining in the charts too.)
(They are the rising star duo.)
- Seok Jin. - My goodness.
- Hello. - By the way,
- they are really cute. - When they say hello...
They are cute.
- Why do you keep saying hello? - They...
greet one person twice.
This way.
- They greet people like salesmen. - That way.
No, it's that way.
Are they Nam Cheol and Nam Seong Nam?
(They are the legendary comedian duo.)
(They go back and forth.)
(Their silhouettes are enough to make people laugh.)
(Well done.)
- They are cute. - They are really cute.
When they were going back and forth, they were so cute.
They were like my nieces and nephews.
(They were as polite as his nieces and nephews on a holiday.)
That's what they do to get money from me.
They are so cute.
They are very polite too.
They are not your real names, are they?
- It's our real name. - It's our real name.
- Really? - Our parents named us.
Are you Gil Gu and Bong Gu really?
He's Kang Gil Gu, and I am Lee Bong Gu.
So you're siblings.
- Wait, you are siblings. - We're not.
We are not siblings.
- But your names match. - And you're Gil Gu and Bong Gu?
- How did you two meet? - How can this happen?
I heard your parents were thrilled that you're coming here.
Really? What did they say?
Our parents don't...
- look at music charts. - Right.
So whenever we make an appearance on TV,
they are thrilled.
It must be your first time to be on TV for such a long duration.
It must be my parents' first time...
to see me talking this much on TV.
(Today is the first.)
- He's cute. - I feel good.
- He will make his parents happy. - He is cute.
Dear parents, you saw them walking around.
How lovely were they?
They wandered around the set as if they owned it.
- We adore your sons. - As soon as they came in,
- they became a hit. - I suddenly thought of this.
It would be nice if they are the last to go home.
Will you be all right?
What can I do?
I have to help them.
It will make me sad, but...
Would you be okay with being stuck with them?
Their parents must be so happy seeing them on TV.
Bong Gu, your parents must be thrilled too.
Yes. Nothing is more assuring being on TV.
Right.
We've been on a lot of competition shows...
and music shows.
But this is our first time to be on a variety show.
As I was leaving home,
I told my mom I was going to be on Happy Together.
And she started watching all the previous episodes.
The previous episodes of Happy Together?
She kept watching them.
Thanks to Bong Gu,
Happy Together is suddenly becoming popular.
It's going viral.
Thanks to Bong Gu, Happy Together became...
- the most popular show to his mom. - She's watching all the episodes.
She's watching all the previous episodes.
All right.
Now, the three teams are formed.
- Soo Yong is the last one. - He is.
Soo Yong is the last one.
The artist in the fourth room sings songs that get banned.
That's how addicting the songs are.
- Really? - There are great hooks.
("Gee" by Girls' Generation)
(Listen boy)
They are idols.
Isn't she a member of Momoland?
- Momoland? - Momoland.
No. They are not Momoland.
(You are so great, my eyes are so dazzled)
The hint is that...
they sing very catchy songs.
Twice is the same.
Their old songs have gone up the charts.
- Did it happen to them too? - EXID?
You got it.
(It's EXID.)
[VIU Ver] E529 Happy Together "The Legendary Big Mouth" "Beauty and the Beast Special Part 1" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(It's Jeong Hwa and Hani of EXID.)
(Their song was the first song that re-entered and went up the charts.)
(Their songs were so catchy that students were banned from them.)
(EXID has come to take over the karaoke.)
It's Hani and Jeong Hwa.
Please come this way.
Please come this way and join us.
Are students banned from listening to your songs?
Yes.
Some songs just don't leave your head once you hear them.
- You can't stop thinking about it. - You can never get away.
Which song do you think...
should be banned...
for the exam?
- Probably "Up and Down". - That's intense.
It lingers the most.
Especially the hook part of the song.
So I feel bad for students who are studying...
or preparing for the exam.
I've always wanted to apologize...
if our song ever bothered them.
Where do you think...
your song is played the most...
such as a certain region?
Army?
(We're the original hit in the army.)
Down, up, up, down
"Up and Down" was once very popular...
for a wake-up song in the army.
- You should go to Yeoncheon. - Yes.
What about you, GB9?
Such as Ulleung Island.
- Ulleung Island? - Ulleung Island?
Did you say Ulleung Island?
It's perfect to dry squids.
- "I Hope It's Breeze"? - Yes.
(That's smart.)
I see.
For island area.
("I Hope It's Breeze" for island area)
Perfect for island area.
It'd fit for Pohang too for herring.
Yes. Pohang too.
- Backwoods. - Backwoods.
(Island and backwoods area to be exact.)
They need breeze.
- Breeze will be nice. - By the coast.
You've met Soo Hong in a club before?
(EXID met Soo Hong in a club?)
I met Soo Hong.
- You've met him in a club? - I remember it too.
- Do you remember it? - Yes.
I noticed someone...
dancing so excitedly.
It turns out it was Soo Hong.
We said hello to him.
- I haven't gone for a while. - Do you go to clubs, GB9?
If anyone wants to meet us there, we go there,
but we don't stay for long.
- Why? - Pardon?
People are so big.
(It's a typical answer for a small duo.)
- Everyone's up there. - That's cute.
He's right.
- I agree. - No one expected to hear that.
I agree.
I did not see that coming.
No one expected it.
- I was thinking it's too loud. - The music's too loud.
- It's too chaos. - It's not that they don't like DJ.
The thing is...
about going home. Even in the interview,
you said you want to go home early,
and it's about your pride.
What do you expect?
We'll be the first.
Right.
- That's interesting. - Actually,
I think it'll be intense...
between us and EXID.
- Do you expect a competition? - Also,
it'll be intense between the 3rd and the 4th.
I mean...
GB9 and Wan Kyu.
(He expects GB9 and Wan Kyu to be in the bottom.)
- GB9... - GB9...
- and Wan Kyu. - and Wan Kyu.
(Will Park Wan Kyu be the last?)
I said I don't like them.
- Look. - Now.
I said it all the time.
- What do you expect, GB9? - Honestly.
I think...
it'd be Park Wan Kyu.
- You think I'll be the last? - Pardon?
- Are you saying I'll be the last? - No. The first.
They're nice boys.
Isn't that too simple?
You change so quick.
How can you do that?
It's distinct among rockers.
Rockers are easily affected.
I don't know about other stuff,
but in here, Kim Kyung Ho and Park Wan Kyu...
- They're similar. - are thoughtless.
They're thoughtless.
They make many small mistakes.
They keep changing their minds.
- They're like girls. - They have emotional ups and downs.
Not in other places. Only in here.
Who would be the second?
EXID would place the second.
(GB9 thinks EXID would place the second.)
- And third? - Us.
(The third would be GB9.)
Look at him.
(They're in a bad mood.)
Never. Never.
- No hard feelings. - No. No.
No hard feelings.
Did you hear what Yo Seop said? "Never. Never."
Never. Never.
We'll be the first to go home.
It's for Happy Together.
For many female fans.
- So go home late? - Yes.
- They should go home late. - They should stay.
Never. Never. I don't think that's what you mean.
- No? No? - Never.
- No? - Never.
I know you don't mean that.
You caught me.
"Never. Never."
I think going home third would be the best.
I see. That's why.
- Now... - This is...
Jae Seok's favorite.
This is my favorite.
It's a segment inside a segment.
The music chart.
(The music chart sung live)
As you probably know,
we're going to take a look...
and see which songs are popular...
in the karaoke.
It changed a lot.
- Right. - Good.
When I introduce the ranking,
you know they play the song for a second in "Music Bank".
You just have to do that live.
- As it goes. - Yes.
- It's the integrated chart. - Let's see.
It's the eighth.

That's too fast.
That was too fast.
- We were on a roll. - What are you doing?
Take a break.
We have to start over.
- Let's start over. - Do you deliver this somewhere?
You put so much effort into it.
It's my favorite segment.
- Okay. - Make it good please.
On 8th. "Star" by GB9.
("Star" by GB9)

That's good.
- That was great. - That's how you do it.
- Only the highlight part. - Did you say that was good?
"DDD". I loved it.
- Keep going. - On 94th.
"Plz Don't Be Sad" by Highlight.
("Plz Don't Be Sad" by Highlight)
(What is that?)
- What is that? - It's arranged.
They arranged it.
- I loved it. - It's a remix.
They made it fit.
It's 180th. "Fiction" by Beast.
("Fiction" by Beast)
I love this song.
- It's nice. - Next up is the adult chart.
On 8th. Park Wan Kyu's...
- Adult chart. - What?
What?
Why would you laugh?
Are you ignoring him?
- That's not it. - It's the truth.
What was that?
They're verified as adults.
There are children chart and adult chart.
Then why did you laugh?
I found it funny.
- He's weird. - I found it funny.
8th on adult chart. "Love over a Thousand Years" by Park Wan Kyu.
("Love over a Thousand Years" by Park Wan Kyu)
On 163rd. "Lonely Night" by Boohwal.
("Lonely Night by Boohwal)
Wan Kyu has...
two songs on adult chart.
He's the master of adult chart.
- He's in the adult chart. - He's the master of adult chart.
(Worship the adult chart.)
- I'm envious. - He's in the adult chart.
Stay away, children.
He's the man of adult chart.
Stay away, children.
Kyung Ho was upset...
why his songs are on adult chart.
- But he's satisfied. - You should be happy.
Of course. Because of that chart,
I get paid every month.
(Adult chart is the source of his income.)
"Love over a Thousand Years" ranked the eighth here.
- That's amazing. - That's amazing.
- What? - Room One...
- is singing GB9. - Wait.
Let's check Room Three.
(It's Jae Seok's song.)
It's Jae Seok's song.
- I'm going home now. - Awesome.
I can go home now.
(It never happened in Sing My Song before.)
If we started, I could go home now.
- Wait. - Room One.
- Room One. - Let's check Room One.
(It's GB9's song.)
- Is it? - Yes.
- It's GB9's song. - That's interesting.
- "Star"? - Yes.
Wait. Put it down, please.
- Did you see it? - We have a chance.
If we started,
GB9 would be going home now.
- They'd get to go home. - That'd be perfect.
That's awesome.
Hey. No one's singing your song.
Our ranking is lower than we expected.
What happened? We need to come up with a countermeasure.
We are a bit...
We were too proud.
- No. Don't say that. - I thought you'd go home early.
When singers join this show,
they realize their current position bitterly.
I think they feel bitter now.
- EXID is pretty flustered too. - You need to know this.
On the other hand, Wan Kyu is pretty satisfied.
He ranked the eighth on the adult chart.
I think he has two reasons.
Either he's positive...
or he hasn't realized it.
It's one of them.
I don't know what it is though.
Room One is searching for GB9's song.
(Room One is searching for the song under GB9.)
- They typed GB9. - He sang pretty well.
- I know. - They're searching under GB9.
- They're searching for GB9. - Let's check Room One again.
We need to start before they leave.
("Good Old Days" by Jang Deok Cheol)
- The song... - I can tell what they like.
- They like those songs. - They like high-pitch songs.
- That's what they like. - High-pitch ballad.
If we were to analyze Room One,
that's the kind of songs they like.
- Also, they're pretty good singers. - They're good.
Room One has reserved...
"I Hope It's Breeze".
It's GB9's.
- But... - Yes?
they tend to not sing it again...
once they sang it already.
- Right. - Of course.
- That's right. - But...
We haven't started yet.
You're impatient now, aren't you?
You sound different now.
I'm in a rush.
The songs that are sung before we start...
aren't sung again after we start.
It's a waste of time.
- Pretty much. - It's a waste of time.
It's the best they sing it now.
I'm surprised at the karaoke ranking...
of EXID and Highlight.
- I know. - I expected it to be high.
I think...
this show will help people with narcissism...
look back at themselves.
I think...
- We become modest. - we're healed.
- It heals us. - You get to realize...
your current position.
- That's great. - You get to realize it.
We didn't intend it,
but we heal narcissism.
- It's exact. - It's a healing show.
You don't realize that you have narcissism.
- Right. - until you come here.
You were a bit of narcissists, weren't you?
- Right? - I don't think it was a bit.
Right.
- It was too much. - We healed you.
Agencies who know singers with narcissism,
please contact us.
Managers and CEOs can call us.
If you think you need to teach them a lesson.
When you think they're acting up.
- Exactly. - That's when they should come here.
(Then...)
- Room One. - Room One is...
- Is that Boohwal's song? - Is that Boohwal's song?
That doesn't count.
They'll sing it.
- I think they'll sing it. - Put it down please.
It's "The More I Love" by Boohwal.
- He has a possibility. - He does.
- Wan Kyu has a chance in Room One. - He does.
I have a strong feeling about "Love over a Thousand Years".
No one has the absolute power here.
- No one is absolutely weak. - You can never guess it.
- You never know. - Let's check Room Two.
You just have to be lucky.
(What's this song?)
- It's EXID's song. - "DDD".
- Wait. Where? - Really?
- Where? - No. Not now.
- Not now. - Right.
- They're singing "DDD". - They're singing now.
You'd get to leave only if we started.
Only if we started.
Actually, we're going to start soon.
- They're singing. - We should've started right away.
Then they'd get to leave now.
You almost broke the record.
You'd get to leave right away.
When we consider the karaoke condition,
no one's singing Highlight's song.
It's like they're self-reflecting.
(By now, it's almost like a self-reflection.)
It's always late at first.
- In fact, GB9 and... - You never know.
- Wan Kyu have a chance. - Of course.
Yo Seop released a solo song.
- Really? - Yes. That's true.
- What's the title? - "Where I Am Gone".
- "Where I Am Gone"? - Yes.
I wrote the song.
(He wrote, composed, and arranged the song himself.)
While I was reading the novel,
"Me Before You",
- You were inspired? - I was inspired.
I decided to make it into a song,
and I did.
Can we hear it please?
Where I do not exist
Do not think of me and do not cry
In this place without you
It will rain down
It's really nice.
Even though he's a man,
- It's sweet. - his voice is so sweet.
GB9...
used to be a vocal trainer for idol singers.
They get many requests to...
teach them like Gi Kwang and Yo Seop.
Almost 9 out of 10 executives...
say that.
- Really? - Yes. A lot of them say that.
- Do they? - You two are role models.
- I never expected it. - Many of them say that.
Have you ever heard about it?
- Never. - They've heard it a lot.
When I teach male students,
they ask us to make at least one of them like Yo Seop.
Right.
Stop it. They just healed their narcissism.
My shoulders were almost raised.
- It's coming back again. - I know.
We just fixed it.
- You once had that period. - We once did.
Don't think about it too much.
They'll get used to it.
It'll be harder to fix.
Do you know In Soon I's song, "Father"?
- It's a good song. - That one.
That's a great song.
- GB9 wrote the lyrics. - What?
- Really? - Yes.
- It wasn't just two of us. - I love the lyrics.
We did it together.
We did it together with a composer.
- You wrote the lyrics? - Yes.
Were you think about your father?
Yes. The lyrics...
and the melody of...
"We love each other we hate each other"
was made from the beginning.
We wrote the song with the father theme...
based on that.
Let's hear "Father" since they made it.
Can we please?
("Father" by the father of songs)
I love this song.
("Father" by GB9)
(We loved each other)
(We hated each other)
(But you held me precious more than anyone)
(And I miss you)
(You were so close)
(But so unapproachable)
(Yes, I hated you)
(Please listen to my story)
(I need time)
(Each line moves their hearts.)
Incredible.
(Each line moves their hearts.)
Amazing.
You can go.
- You did your job. - Right.
- You've done your job. - They can be excused.
That was amazing.
- Sit down. - Amazing.
- It was touching. - That was awesome.
- I got goosebumps. - What was that?
Everyone was touched and got on their feet,
but he was sitting alone.
What do you think of their song?
I listen to GB9's song through my heart.
- I was on a competition show... - Right.
with them before.
I always close my eyes.
My ears open up when I hear their voice.
If you were going to compliment them,
why didn't you get up before?
- I know. - You didn't even clap.
I know.
I thought you were Im Zin Mo.
I thought you were evaluating them.
He complimented them too.
I thought he was going to cast them.
- It did well. - Right.
Do you get a lot of royalty?
It was the first time...
we got a lot of money for royalty with "Father".
- You've has a taste of money. - Yes.
But after that,
- The lyrics were nice. - "I Hope It's Breeze"...
is our next biggest one.
- Did you compose the song yourself? - Yes.
- You compose the songs yourself? - Yes.
That's awesome.
- Then you must understand... - You seem very jealous.
what it means to make money from karaoke.
That was your most genuine reaction today.
- I'm jealous. - Okay.
- You wrote "As One Says". - I did.
- You get royalty then. - You do get royalty then.
- He makes a lot. - I recently got 31 cents.
I thought 3,100 dollars.
It wasn't 3,100 dollars?
- I thought it was 3,100 dollars. - I sometimes get a dollar.
- Really? - When it was popular,
it wasn't much...
because we composed it together, but I got a little.
- As time goes... - We're in Suyu-ri.
Someone sang it for you because you're from this town.
I appreciate it.
I really appreciate it.
Let's have a favorite song match to get a chance.
Let's start with Park Wan Kyu.
(Park Wan Kyu is up first for a match to earn a chance.)
- Which song did you pick, Wan Kyu? - He's an expert.

I love that song.
("For You" by Yim Jae Beum)

(Wan Kyu is awesome.)
Encore. It was awesome.
He scored 92.
- I knew it. - It's a very high score.
- Now, GB9. - I wonder what they'd sing.
"Goodbye, Seoul"?
- It's "Love over a Thousand Years". - What?
(They try "Love over a Thousand Years".)
Do I get to go home now?
(He's funny.)
- Don't try something weird. - We haven't started yet.
It's only when we start.

I can just sing as I always do.
They raised two keys.
Right.

(How could their version turn out?)

Gosh. He's incredible.

(They're good.)

(Everyone fell in love with GB9.)
- This is the highest score ever. - That's incredible.
- I had goosebumps. - You're great.
You got 99 points just as your group name is GB9.
I didn't realize that.
- GB9. - That's right.
I wish I could keep hearing our guests sing.
- Right. - This is driving me crazy.
What did you say?
No. I didn't mean it like that.
Gi Kwang couldn't hold it in.
(Next week)
(They have an intense battle to go home early.)
(Push it, push it.)
(They can't hide their desperation.)
(Where did my fritters go?)
(No. We didn't eat it.)
- Was it you? - No, we didn't.
(You should've asked me first.)
(I got caught.)
(Kyung Ho, I'm done.)
(Who would sing your song?)
(Stay tuned for our next episode.)
