We're starting the shoot.
Don't sing that flop of a song!
♪ Joy to the world, for she has come ♪
♪ Let earth receive her queen ♪
Weekly Idol!
There's a reason why we're singing this song.
Today we'll have a group that
you can't see outside of music shows.
We thought we'd never get to meet them
and they're here today.
I was shocked.
"My Little Television," "Jagiya," and "2 Nights and 1 Day."
They only go on the hottest shows. Not "I Am a Natural Person" though.
Yeah, not on that one.
They weren't on "North and South Girl" either.
They're not at a big studio on the first floor.
They came to this damp basement studio.
The unknown yet hottest girl group.
It's BLACKPINK!
BLACKPINK!
(Here comes BLACKPINK)
(Bewildered and shy)
Please greet the viewers!
(Will they understand the pig language?)
2, 3. Hello, we're BLACKPINK.
They're so thoughtful. How'd you know about that?
So you've seen our show.
- Sure, we've seen the show. - How did you understand that?
It's an alien language.
I heard you girls have never given
an interview since you debuted.
Not even once.
No interviews or variety show appearances.
Is it true that this is the first show for you girls that's not a music show?
Yes, that's right.
Shows like "I Am a Natural Person," "North and South Girl..."
"Pumpkin Seed."
Why'd you come on our show
instead of all those shows?
- This place is the best. - Pardon?
This place is the best.
(Big smile)
What was that? Can you say that louder?
This place is the best.
We're the best!
This place is the best.
Have you seen our show?
Yes.
Who was the guest?
We saw the episodes with the other YG artists.
Who? GD?
- Yes. - Oh, GD.
What's he up to these days?
How's BIG BANG?
We're not sure either...
Tell GD to call me.
You changed your number.
I didn't give him my new number.
(Goodness)
I didn't give him my new number.
He changed numbers because he texts every day.
He's so clingy.
(Jennie hasn't said a word yet)
Jennie.
What is it?
Are you Korean?
- Yes. - Oh, really?
I'm Korean.
- That's your real name? - Yes, it's my Korean name.
- Your Korean name? - Yes.
How about Rose?
No, my real name is Park Chae Yeong.
Another Korean.
Then Lisa you're...
A foreigner.
You have very good pronunciation.
How are you so good at Korean, Lisa?
No...
She's obviously a foreigner.
- Are you a foreigner? - Yes.
From Thailand, right?
Yes, I'm Thai.
I was in Thailand last week!
- I went to Bangkok and Pattaya. - Really?
- Sawadikap. - Sawadikap.
(She takes everything they throw at her)
Crab curry is delicious.
I love that stuff.
I had tom yum soup over there.
I had it with cilantro.
I love crab curry.
Lisa, you girls did a pre-shoot interview.
You said that Hyeong Don
looks cute and you wanted to meet him.
(The girls won't leave me alone)
You find him cute? Why?
He's round like a bear, so he's cute.
Guys like him are popular in Thailand?
- Round and cute guys? - Yes.
Oh, really?
Come here.
Closer.
Make sure you take a screen shot of this once this airs.
(How touching)
Take a screen shot.
(Flashes some Vs)
Take a photo.
Take a screen shot.
Lisa's wish came true today.
What do the rest of you girls think of Hyeong Don in person?
Ji Soo...
What is it?
Thinks that Defconn has hidden charms.
He doesn't though.
(Shattering her image of him)
Now what? Alright.
(Letting Ji Soo stand next to Defconn)
(Defconn's lucky day)
Cherish this moment.
How do I have hidden charms?
I feel like you're very charismatic,
yet quiet.
He talks a ton.
You're always so funny on TV and kind.
I'm serious when I work on music and I talk a lot when I have to.
Jennie and Rose, why aren't you two talking?
- I feel like I'm watching TV now. - Pardon?
I feel like I'm watching TV.
Then stay tuned.
Don't change channels.
I've always wanted to say this.
What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?
Hyeong Don...
You look a lot like my dad...
(Shocked, cheerful)
(This is why he's the father of idols)
Whenever she sees the show...
I'm not around your father's age.
I'm like an older friend.
- He's not that old. - Right.
He looks like your dad?
I always thought that when I saw him on TV, but after seeing him in person...
I feel like I'm home.
My dad is in Australia now...
Why do you never come home?
My home is Australia.
It's BLACKPINK's first time on our show and it's their first variety show.
The fans are very curious about you girls.
Since it's their first variety show appearance.
The fans left questions for you girls.
Let's start with the first one.
"I've never seen them talk since they debuted."
(Right on the nail)
I feel that way too. I've never seen them talk.
"I want to see each member talk."
You'll have one minute to introduce yourself...
(Yikes! 1 minute)
And say a few words or show off a talent.
Who wants to go first? Lisa? Ji Soo?
- Lisa. - Lisa first.
Look this way please.
Lisa gets 1 minute. Start.
Hello, I'm from Thailand and my name is Lisa.
I'm 20 years old.
(Looking for help)
I rap and dance in BLACKPINK.
And I'm the youngest member.
The other girls are so nice to me.
I feel very loved as the youngest.
What's your favorite food?
My favorite food?
- You like pork spine stew. - Your favorite food.
I really like pork spine stew.
- French fries. - Pork spine stew.
Pork spine stew?
- The Korean dish. - Pork spine stew is my favorite.
(Nom, nom)
Anything else you want to say?
Go ahead.
Please support us.
She's definitely the youngest.
"Please support us."
Next is Rose.
Hello, I'm Rose.
I was born in New Zealand,
grew up in Australia and came to Korea 4 years ago.
I'm Rose.
What do you like?
Me? I really like kimchi stew.
Your hobby?
My hobby?
I really like to play the guitar and draw.
Keep going. What type of guy do you like?
Umm... Someone sweet.
With a nice voice.
Someone that's kind.
Like your boss YG?
Someone that's kind.
Like your boss YG?
Yes! Totally.
I love our boss!
Nice one.
You'll get a solo album soon.
We asked her out of the blue, but that was a good answer.
Next is Jennie, who seems to be the most nervous.
No need to be nervous. Just relax like you're with friends.
Relax.
Hello, I'm Jennie.
I'm 21 years old.
What do you like?
I like... I like...
What's your favorite food?
Kimchi fried rice.
Bean paste stew.
Milk.
(I like milk)
Bean paste stew and milk.
I like milk-flavored ice cream.
- Milk-flavored ice cream. - Right, she loves that.
I always wanted to give a shout out to my dogs at home.
Your dogs at home?
All of a sudden?
How many dogs do you have?
Why not just say hello to her parents?
She wants to say hi to her dogs. Go ahead then.
Hi, Kai and Kuma.
Kai and Kuma.
And Dalgom.
Hi, Dalgom.
Ji Soo.
Hello, I'm Ji Soo.
(Suddenly cracks up)
I'm 22 years old.
Are your lungs filled with air?
I laugh a lot. I laugh a lot.
Do people tell you that you're a space case?
If this is a space case
I'm right here. It's a bit different.
In a totally different dimension.
Okay, what's your favorite food?
My favorite food...
I enjoy all foods. I can eat anything.
Even duck head?
Not that.
- Do you like intestine soup? - I can't eat a head.
How about intestine soup?
- So you can't eat anything. - She won't eat anything.
Blood sausage soup.
Pig's head.
Sliced boiled meat.
She can't eat anything!
You eat grilled tripe, right?
(Nope)
- She doesn't even eat tripe. - Or intestines.
Intestines are...
You don't eat pig snout?
I guess I only eat the outside.
How about pork rinds?
(Not that either)
What do you eat then? What do you like?
I like rice.
Rice and rice.
Rice and rice?
♪ Rice, rice, rice, rice ♪
She's the problem. They're becoming like her.
- Right. - They've all caught it.
Especially her.
Here's the next question.
"WHISTLE."
(She laughs at anything)
They want to hear an acapella version. Can you do this?
Shall we hear the acapella version?
Great.
Where do we start?
♪ Whistle ♪
What note is that?
C? D?
(Ji Soo starts whistling)
5, 6, 7, 8.
(Rose starts off by herself)
Hold on.
(Her face says it all This isn't right)
Singing by yourself isn't acapella.
- Why would you sing that? - Rose wants to be a soloist.
I thought we'd all sing there! I'm sorry.
Rose really wants to be a soloist.
(They start their acapella again)
5, 6, 7, 8.
(Rose)
(Jennie)
(Lisa)
Sorry, but for acapella...
You're not supposed to all sing separately.
That's a song relay.
Give us one more chance.
We will.
Now this is acapella.
(Hyeong Don and Defconn demonstrate)
I know too.
(Disharmony)
(They're actually impressed by this)
This is acapella. You sing as one.
Shall we demonstrate "WHISTLE?"
♪ Whistle, whistle ♪
(Stop it...)
(Just don't sing it like this...)
Now this is acapella.
Okay.
You sing as one.
We were awesome.
This is why I make songs with you.
Starting from where?
- I'll go. - Starting from where?
They have to set the key.
Start.
(Their third try)
(Huh?)
(Rose's singing by herself again)
- I'm sorry. - How long will it just be you?
This is acapella.
It says acapella on the script.
Look, as you're singing...
You want a high-five? Why though?
- What's with her? - What's her deal?
Me too!
That's my hand to slap! Why would you slap it?
It wasn't me...
(We finally get to see Ji Soo's quirky personality)
Let's start with "Towards you."
We'll all come in.
Start.
(Suddenly starts singing)
(Are they doing it?)
(Looking shaky)
We'll move on to the 4th question.
You girls should include Lisa too.
- Sorry! - Rose, you tried to steal the show.
She was trying to join you.
She came all the way from Thailand and she just did this.
(Sad...)
Once you can sing in acapella...
- Please come back on our show. - We're sorry.
This is too frustrating to watch.
This next one is an easy one.
This is very easy.
They want to hear your YG impressions.
That's very basic.
GD, Taeyang and Seungri can all do it.
They can all do it.
It's strange if you can't do it.
YG will probably ask you girls later.
"Hey, did you do an impression of me?"
If you say yes, he'll be pleased.
Who's the best at this?
(Jennie takes one for the team)
- She's getting ready. - Here it comes.
Whistle, whistle.
Jennie.
How cute!
Can you sing "WHISTLE" like YG would?
Here it comes. This should be good.
5, 6, 7, 8.
(Sounding like YG)
Jennie. Jennie.
Jennie. "WHISTLE."
Does anyone else want to try?
Who can do as well as Jennie?
Lisa.
It has to be Lisa.
The way YG talks...
I should do "WHISTLE?"
5, 6, 7, 8.
She's getting ready.
(Changing her pose)
Stand up. You should stay standing.
5, 6, 7, 8.
(She's imitating his facial expressions)
(Big laughs)
Get up.
Nice one.
(Nice job, Lisa)
That was funny.
That "K-pop Star" vibe.
We'll finally do the opening.
Finally.
Your songs "Playing With Fire" and "Stay."
What are they about?
Playing With Fire" has powerful beats and vocals.
You can't help getting excited.
Like the title, it's really like playing with fire.
You did a good job memorizing all that.
- Right from the manual. - Amazing.
Anyone can tell that she memorized that.
That was like a clip from a song site.
Shall we hear it then?
Let's hear "Stay" in acapella.
5, 6, 7, 8.
(They seem shaky again)
(They give Lisa a chance this time)
(Laughing)
(Is this another failure?)
Excuse me...
(Goodness)
There it is!
(Perfect harmony)
(They finally got the hang of it)
(Now they're feeling it)
(Amazing vocals)
I feel like I'm camping.
(Dancing)
It's like we're camping.
(This is how skilled these YG artists are)
(They seem relaxed now that they got the hang of it)
This acapella was a success!
Now that was acapella.
Lisa really does seem like a rapper.
She just stood there watching.
Lisa is great at harmonizing.
You can harmonize to any song?
The two of them are very good at harmonizing.
Lisa and Ji Soo?
- To any song? - That's fine.
- Can I sing it? - Yes.
- You can harmonize to my singing? - Yes.
What song?
Just sing whatever. They'll sing along.
Can you sing your song? ♪ No, no, no, no ♪
How will you harmonize over that?
Let's try it then.
I love that song!
Sing that in acapella?
They'll harmonize.
They might be able to do it.
Let's try.
(He made the song so he's excited)
♪ You might be crying but she's laughing ♪
(Impossible to harmonize to)
(This really is a no, no, no...)
You're just singing along.
That's not what you're supposed to do.
Don't just sing along because you want to.
Now it's time of the unavoidable.
Can they do the Random Play Dance?
- They already have 4 songs. - You're right.
So it's the Random Play Dance.
We've always wanted to try this.
Really?
Can you do it without mistakes?
Yes, to win a gift.
A gift?
Do you have a gift?
A gift...
We ran out yesterday.
How about food?
You didn't apply on our message board?
- Do you have to do that? - Yes.
You have to sign up, make an ID and everything.
Too bad.
What do you want to eat?
We can order something.
Burgers? Fried chicken? Pizza?
Burgers.
Fried chicken!
Pizza.
Fried chicken? A combo?
- A combo with burgers and chicken? - Yes.
We'll get that all for you if you succeed in one try.
I feel like we'll mess up.
- Me too. - I feel like we'll mess up.
Here we go. The Random Play Dance.
Oh my gosh...
Let's warm up our ankles.
They're warming up.
You'll get really sweaty.
Cue the music!
("Playing With Fire" by BLACKPINK)
(Dancing)
This is their new song.
(Looking fierce when they perform)
(Now they're like true pros)
(Pleased)
("Whistle" by BLACKPINK)
(They seem confused when the song changes)
Where are you looking?
(Let's quickly get through this part)
This doesn't look right.
("Boombayah" by BLACKPINK)
Jennie is almost out of steam.
Just do the choreography.
(The dancing king)
Jennie's feeling tired.
Ji Soo too but she's pretending she isn't.
(Skipping through the song)
They're exhausted.
Alright, alright! Here it comes.
(They calmly do the choreography)
(This is the hardest part of the dance)
That part has to be tough.
- Keep playing that part. - That part's hard.
Here it comes.
You have to stand up fast.
(Rushing)
(Finding her place super fast)
(They let Rose slide)
(Ji Soo blocks Jennie's path)
Your arm!
(Finds her place)
(The hosts rush out)
You two! You two!
(They saw us?)
You two!
I saw Jennie's face.
Ji Soo was in her way so...
That was planned.
That was planned?
(Ji Soo is right there to chime in)
You've never done that on TV.
I bump into her and she goes...
We haven't performed this on TV yet.
But when you do, you'll do that?
- Make sure you check it out. - Really?
Come on. Be honest.
Be honest. Which of you two made the mistake?
That person gets fried chicken.
It was me.
(They're not very loyal)
You made the mistake?
Who made the mistake?
Who was it? Who made the mistake?
I think Jennie was in the wrong spot.
You were standing in the wrong spot.
We're pros. We don't know the dance, but we've seen many formations.
It's true.
- They should get head flicks. - Pardon?
We should use a rubber mallet.
A rubber mallet.
Did we not tell you that there would be punishments?
- We didn't hear that. - You just heard now.
I have a low threshold for pain. I feel pain easily.
She feels pain more than others.
Even if you tap her lightly...
Stop acting.
(She obviously isn't in pain)
You prepared an act for that?
Don't act. You have a low threshold for pain?
I hit her?
(Hyeong Don will use the rubber mallet)
Is it okay?
Tell your fans that you're okay with this.
Fans, I'm okay with this.
Tell them not to cut the eyes out of my photos.
Please don't cut the eyes out of his photos.
Tell them not to throw a dead cat at home.
Throw a black cat at home.
- You said to throw one? - A black cat?
She said to throw a black cat.
Throw a black cat...
Here we go. It'll be over soon.
Jennie, it'll be over soon. Let's do this!
Don't move, don't move.
I hope "Playing With Fire" and "Stay" become hits.
(Wow)
Gosh!
Are you okay? Are you okay?
My gosh! Are you okay?
Goodness...
- Where did she go? - She liked that.
She liked that.
She liked that!
That was the second girl to laugh after I hit her with a rubber mallet.
I've never seen someone laugh so much.
IU laughed for like 4 minutes after I hit her with this.
Why is this so funny?
- How was that? - It was nice.
I think the other members need to feel this too.
(Goodness)
All the members.
Jennie, you pick the member that makes a mistake.
Yes, I'll watch carefully.
If you succeed, you get the chicken and burgers.
Really?
If you succeed.
Fried chicken!
Cue the music!
("Playing With Fire" by BLACKPINK)
(Getting into formation)
They're already on point.
- Look at Jennie. - They're all so precise.
(I will not get hit by the rubber mallet)
(So confident)
Jennie's eyes look fierce again.
("Boombayah" by BLACKPINK)
(This part isn't so hard)
Now what?
(This is where it gets hard)
(Someone save Rose)
(The perfect dance for the Random Play Dance)
(But they get through this part)
("Whistle" by BLACKPINK)
(She looks a bit off)
(No rubber mallet!)
Jennie.
(They try to escape the rubber mallet)
(We're watching)
Try to point out who makes a mistake.
(Like girl crushes)
Their eyes changed.
Totally different from before.
("Whistle" by BLACKPINK)
(She made a mistake but luckily the song changed)
What is it? What, Jennie?
(Jennie pointed at Ji Soo, but Rose seems to feel guilty)
What is it?
- It was her! - What is it?
(Crying)
(So happy that someone else gets the rubber mallet)
We didn't know you made a mistake.
This is so scary!
We had no idea.
We thought Ji Soo made the mistake.
Why me? I'm the best one here.
- I saw it. - How did she make a mistake?
She should've been on my left, but she was on my right.
Why did you move?
Tell me why.
(Tries to sing to calm her fear)
I'm so scared!
- It doesn't hurt for that long. - Right, you'll be fine.
- Close your eyes. - Yeah. close them.
Are you wearing contacts?
Oh, I'm wearing contacts.
Want to take them out?
But I have to be able to see. I'm fine.
Since she has to see...
She's such a pro.
You'll be fine.
I'm so hot.
Should I hold your hair?
- I'll make you feel cold. - Cold...
Chilling...
I'll make it feel chilling.
I hope "Playing With Fire" and "Stay" become hits.
- Yeah! - Let's go.
(So cheerful about this)
(Rose has joined the YG rubber mallet victims)
(Oh my God)
(Feeling bad)
That was amazing.
Everything went white.
That's probably our studio.
(This place has always been white...)
This place was always white.
- This studio has always been like this. - Gosh!
We're fine with the burgers and chicken. Let's stop this.
It's unfortunate but
you fail at the Random Play Dance.
Rose.
Thank you.
We're with BLACKPINK.
Let's see their profiles!
They've never been interviewed outside of a music show.
We still have much to learn about BLACKPINK.
So we prepared these profiles.
We'll start with Ji Soo.
Playing the Korean drum. She was in a traditional music club in junior high.
You shouldn't write down everything.
I'm very good at playing.
(Yikes)
I've been saying this since I first joined as a trainee.
You got into YG with this?
But nobody has heard her play.
We always thought she was lying.
- You've never seen her play? - Not once.
None of the members have seen her play either.
I was so curious.
Can you play all the different rhythms?
How about allegro?
- What's that? - Andante.
- What's andante? - Presto.
What?
Just play what you know.
Here I go.
Hey!
(Bursts into laughter)
(Hey!)
(Her form looks weird too)
Those are the basics.
Sorry but...
That wasn't... That impressive.
(She starts playing again)
(Wow)
(It seems better than last time)
(Now she's feeling it)
Can you play something very difficult? Like...
I'll play this faster then.
Go ahead. Start.
(Faster)
Hold on.
Is that all you can do?
I just memorized that beat.
Is that so hard?
You have to be precise.
Let me try...
(Playing carelessly)
You're pretty good.
That was good?
- You have potential. - She says I'm good.
You should pursue the Korean drum.
Go North?
I want to stay in South Korea.
So she's okay at the Korean drum.
Not quite great.
Give her a maybe for the Korean drum.
So you can do that too?
- Your skill is making up nicknames? - Really?
I just throw out a bunch.
What did you come up with for Jennie?
Jen-bug.
Jen-bug. Why?
She wakes me up because I have trouble waking up in the morning.
We used the same room.
She crawls on me like a bed bug.
- You think it's your mom? - So she's Jen-bug.
You combined her name with bed bug.
Like this.
Making it hard for me to get up.
What's Rose's nickname?
Rose is Pasta.
Pasta?
Once they started calling me Rose,
she always says pasta
whenever she walks by my room!
Rose pasta since your name is Rose.
How about Lisa?
(Feels a bit bad)
Lisa is Party Girl Lisa. Her real name is Larisa.
How about for you? What's your nickname?
I'm Ji Tzu. Like the dog. It's cute.
You made a cute one for yourself.
You called Lisa a party girl.
When she cooks she's Chef Lisa. I call her Chef Lisa.
So that's how you change it up?
- Elephant Lisa. - Pardon?
Elephant Lisa.
Just ignore her.
Just ignore her. Let's ignore her.
Just pretend we didn't hear anything. She keeps going...
"Elephant Lisa."
You can't even ignore her.
"Chef Lisa."
Rose Pasta." We hear everything!
Did you come up with a nickname for YG?
No.
- I'm sure you have one in mind. - We know you do.
What's YG's nickname? I know you have one in mind.
I don't have a nickname for him but I sing a song whenever he shows up.
What?
♪ Boss, boss ♪
♪ You're here, boss ♪
He just laughs and ignores me.
So when he passes by...
♪ Boss, boss ♪
- I do that! - When YG passes by?
- He says, "What is that?" - When he walks by?
What's wrong with you?" He says that as he walks by.
Can you make nicknames for us?
Umm... Pig...
Pig?
She said pig just now.
That's too obvious.
- That's too obvious. - Come up with something else.
Just say whatever's on your mind.
Don... Don-bug.
Don-bug? What's that?
She likes nicknames that end in bug.
(Misery loves the company)
Don-bug.
You were on commercials and you acted before debuting.
If you see commercials...
Really? Why haven't I seen you before?
Watch.
Goodness!
Is this a music video?
(She was in Epik High's music videos)
Epik High.
(A smart phone commercial)
That's Ji Soo with Lee Min Ho.
This is the best one.
(The highlight)
I like you.
Want to date?
(Going nuts)
Do that for us! Do that for us!
Show us that! Come on!
(Pretends she's dead)
Just once.
Come on. Do it.
This show is amazing.
5, 6, 7, 8.
(I can't look)
Hold on...
(Fails at getting into character)
Hold on.
Girls! She's trying to get into character.
(Trying not to laugh)
Hold on...
I think...
I like you.
- Want to date? - No!
Never!
- I don't want to date you! - Please!
So scary.
Let's go to the next member!
Hyeong Don.
Jennie can act too, so let's make her do the same thing.
What I just did.
(Out of nowhere)
What I just did! Please!
She always teases me about this.
"I really like you so don't ever cheat on me."
(Excited because it isn't them)
Do it.
Start.
(Determined)
Hold on" is important.
The first line is important.
Hold on.
I think I like you. Don't ever cheat on me!
(Ji Soo seems serious)
Make sure to watch this on TV.
Watch it on TV. Wow, that was something.
Next is Jennie.
She was featured on G-Dragon's "BLACK."
Her skill is rapping.
Are you more comfortable with singing or rapping?
I wonder that myself these days.
Is this what you said?
"I'm above average in dancing, rapping, singing and looks."
Wow.
There's a problem.
What?
It doesn't mean that I'm super good at those thing.
- Just above average? - Right.
You're not terrible, but not amazing either.
When you're a YG trainee, you always have to sing
a new song for tests.
Can you sing a memorable song from back then?
(She sounds good)
(Dancing along)
(So talented)
[Kocowa Ver] E277 Weekly Idol "BLACKPINK" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(Shoots a heart)
Did you see that? Her eyes...
Yeah.
You can do impressions of a baby and an angry cat.
I'm sure you hear that you have a cat face.
This is my first time seeing her in person,
but she seemed very tough on TV.
- And cold. - She looked tough.
- But you aren't like that at all. - She's like a baby.
I have hidden charms.
"I looks sexy and confident, yet I'm very shy."
"I look cold-hearted, but I'm warm. I can be weak and strong..."
This is too long. What is all this?
She wrote this all herself.
Let's hear your baby voice.
She's really good at this.
What kind of baby voice?
Jennie, it's your mom. What's wrong?
Mommy, I'm hungry.
You're hungry?
- Mommy, I'm hungry. - You're hungry?
- I want to eat. - What do you want?
Fried chicken and burgers.
(She's just begging for food)
How cute!
- Jennie. - How cute.
- She's good. - That was cute, Jennie.
- Thank you. - "Fried chicken and burgers."
You didn't buy any for us.
No, no.
You said you would...
How cute!
She's changing my mind.
Let's hear the angry cat now.
It isn't a sound. It's my face.
Let's see the angry cat face!
1, 2, 3.
(It's Cat Jennie)
(Meow)
How cute. Gosh... Jennie's so adorable.
Order some burgers and fried chicken!
With YG's money.
(Still happy)
Let's see the next one. Rose.
Her Korean name is Park Chae Yeong.
You got into YG in 2012 from an audition in Australia?
My dad saw the advertisement that they were holding auditions in Australia.
He got plane tickets
since it was far away from us and I went.
Your dad believed in your skills.
- You're her dad. - I knew you'd make it.
Dad!
I knew you'd make it.
You sang as you played the guitar for your audition?
Yes.
Then let's take a trip down memory lane.
We have a guitar.
All these girls are so charming and talented.
Here I go.
(The song Rose auditioned with in 2010)
(She sings with her sweet voice)
(She's good at the guitar too)
(Getting into it)
(She can even rap)
(Time to fall for Rose)
She's even acting.
She's good at English.
(Smiling like a dad)
(She sounds so good)
(She finishes her performance)
(Rose should get more fans after today)
You're in!
I was so nervous just now!
- No, that was great. - I was so nervous.
No, you were great.
- Thank you. - Great lyrics.
Rose can sound like someone trapped in a box?
What is this?
Yes, this should surprise you.
I've never seen something like this.
Yes, it's the first time.
So we prepared a box.
- I don't need a box. - You don't go inside?
"I don't need a box."
I can sound like a person trapped in a box.
Oh, really?
This is a sound effect.
Hello, I'm Rose.
(She really sounds like she's in a box)
(Trying to understand)
"I've always wanted to meet you, Hyeong Don."
Hello, I can play the guitar...
- And dance. - How is she doing that?
How do you do that?
I'm not sure.
I can do it too. We all can.
We always do this for fun.
Ji Soo, show us.
Hello, I'm Jennie.
Huh?
I'm Jennie. Jennie.
Anyone would know if you did that.
It was a hint.
It'll be handy if you're ever kidnapped.
You can still talk with tape over your mouth.
- Oh, really? - Save me!
(Save me!)
(I've been kidnapped!)
Not many girl groups prepare a skill
to help them for kidnappings.
That's on a Hollywood level.
Go ahead, Ji Soo.
Save me. I've been kidnapped.
Wow, that's kind of amazing.
Jennie?
I've been kidnapped too.
"I've been kidnapped too."
Lisa.
(Muffled)
Lisa isn't worried about kidnappings.
We'll rescue her.
- It's hard. - It's pretty amazing.
Rose can do dance covers of "Good Boy" and "Ringa Linga."
Really?
I'm not that good at it.
When I was a trainee...
(She chimes in to encourage her)
I learned as a trainee, so I don't really remember.
♪ I am a good boy ♪
I don't really remember.
She stood up.
You know the dances.
I don't remember the dances...
Then why do you keep walking to the front?
She wants to do it.
This could look ridiculous. I really...
A ridiculous dance! Yeah!
It's amazing.
Why did I even write that?
Cue the music!
(Rose's dance cover of "Good Boy")
(Stiff)
(Ji Soo seems more excited)
(Does the moves she knows first)
(Dusting herself?)
(Like a dancing wooden doll)
(The part she knows is over)
"Ringa Linga!"
(Rose's cover of "Ringa Linga")
(Dancing)
(Now she's like a water strider)
(Yeah)
(Nice)
(Rose's fans keep cheering for her)
I'm sorry, G-Dragon and Taeyang.
It's fine.
When it comes to dancing...
The best dancer is Ji Soo.
- Let's see. - What song do you want?
The living legend of K-pop dancing.
I'll dance to the same songs.
(So excited)
Cue the music!
(She's taken dance lessons at YG for 5 years)
(Looks like she's doing what she just saw)
She just learned this.
(She looks so busy)
(The same dance yet it seems so different)
Ringa Linga" this time.
(Ji Soo's cover of "Ringa Linga")
That's pretty typical.
(Does what she learned)
She memorized the order.
I feel like she left some moves out.
- ♪ Ringa linga ♪ - Yeah!
- ♪ Ringa linga ♪ - Nice!
Now it's Lisa!
This will be so different.
Let's compare. Cue the music!
(That's what we want to see)
(Now this is the YG swag)
That's what I'm talking about!
(Oh, like this?)
(Here's the real dance cover)
(Filled with swag)
She looks off.
"Ringa Linga."
(Lisa's cover of "RINGA LINGA")
(Nailing it)
(Now they're fans of Lisa)
(So precise and powerful)
(Enjoying herself)
(Perfect)
It looked like you were doing muay thai while you were dancing.
So powerful.
Nice job.
Dancing from cramming and a pro dancer.
You all can do it too.
Lisa.
What's FREEZ?
A breakdancing team.
You used to breakdance? You can do the Nike freeze and the windmill?
She can do all that.
(Not all that)
You can do acrobatics?
She can do a freeze.
Holding herself in the air with a pose.
Don't act like you know.
You just learn by cramming.
Sorry but do you know what acapella means?
Do you know what acapella is?
(She's so silly)
Show us your freeze, Lisa.
She's all about dancing.
Larisa! Larisa!
(Lisa's fans root for her)
Larisa!
(So easily)
(We'll show you this cool move again)
How'd you do that?
It's harder than it looks.
You need a lot of arm strength.
Can you do that after seeing it?
Ji Soo, give it a shot.
Don't just stand up! Think about it first.
You can't do it?
I can't do it.
That was amazing.
Can you do another move? That was amazing.
Yes, I'll do a front walkover.
- A front walkover? - Go!
(Go, Lisa!)
You did that so naturally.
Rose and Lisa...
Rose and Lisa can do cartwheels with one hand.
- Really? - With one hand?
- One person on that side. - Go like this.
- You can't keep going? - We can.
Until the end.
- You can keep going? - With one hand?
Use two hands and keep going.
- Two hands? - Start.
(Goodness, look at them)
(It's the YG circus)
They can do everything we ask them to.
What is she doing?
(Rose was quietly doing cartwheels)
(She suddenly does a round off)
(This is so much fun)
I wanted to do that.
(Cheerful)
So we're with BLACKPINK.
How was it today? You're sad it's almost over?
I'm sad.
That's why we have another segment.
(Oh, yeah)
On to the next segment.
BLACKPINK's dreams come true!
(Excited)
We'll give you a chance to make your dreams come true.
I'm sure you have some segments you wanted to try on this show.
Yes.
So we'll grant that wish.
But that's not all.
We also have
some amazing gifts prepared.
Our staff talked to your boss YG
without your knowledge.
(A 100% real reaction)
So if you clear the missions
YG promised that he'd buy you
gifts of your choosing.
He can afford to do that.
What do you want the most?
Your boss is paying.
You said you need a computer.
A computer.
- What else? - A sofa.
A bed.
- You don't have a bed? - You sleep on the floor?
On a mat? What do you sleep on?
We have bunk beds.
A bed, a computer and what else?
I think a sofa is important.
- A refrigerator. - You don't have a refrigerator?
It's so old.
Time to get some new appliances.
Ji Soo and Rose's dreams come true!
(Still excited)
What do you two want to do?
The 2x speed dance.
The 2x speed dance?
Oh... I'm already regretting this.
- The crammer. - "I'm already regretting this."
Why did you want to try the 2x speed dance?
Because our dances our hard. I want to see how hard it is at 2x speed.
You want to experience it.
But it's not just you two.
All together.
You'll all dance together.
What do they get if they can pull this off?
What'll you get if you pull this off?
- A refrigerator. - A refrigerator?
A computer.
2 gifts since two people wanted this segment.
Double.
Ji Soo and Rose's dreams come true.
If you succeed you get a refrigerator and a computer!
You're being so bold since you aren't buying.
Keep going.
This is nothing for YG.
What song do you want?
You have to pick the right song.
- "Boombayah." - Got to do "Boombayah."
"Boombayah?"
You have to dance to "Boombayah."
The ground isn't slippery enough for me to slide on my back.
Would you like a mat then?
This has to be slippery for me to slide on my back better.
Or...
Do you want to walk over me?
We'll walk over her.
We can do this.
If they dance to "Boombayah" at 2x speed...
They get a computer and refrigerator.
- You get them for your dorms. - "Boombayah."
I hope you succeed.
Cue the music!
I hope you succeed.
Cue the music!
("Boombayah" 2x speed)
(The beat is so fast it makes you flustered)
They don't look too pleased.
Let's go!
(She remembers to look fierce)
(The powerful dance starts)
(How are they so relaxed?)
(By her face you'd think this is the original tempo)
They're doing it!
The rapping is so fast. Like Outsider.
(So charming)
I'm worried about Ji Soo.
(So excited)
Nice job so far!
(They're enjoying the 2x speed dance)
That looked a bit awkward.
(We're falling for them)
(Let's go! BLACKPINK)
(The beat gets faster)
Hurry! Hurry!
(They're pulling off this difficult dance...)
A fridge and computer on the line!
This isn't a game!
(They keep moving to the fast beat)
How about a refreshing beverage?
(Still so relaxed)
- Looking good so far. - Still looking good.
Catch your breaths.
(So peaceful)
Almost done!
(It seems like they don't get tired)
Nice!
(Cheerful even though it's tiring)
(Gosh...)
(This is the hard part)
(They move instead of having Rose slide)
Great strategy!
They're moving up.
(Impressed)
Nice one.
(This is tough because they have to lie down and get up again)
(Still very energetic)
They managed to get past that by being clever.
(The beat gets fast again)
- Almost done. - Almost done!
Keep smiling, girls! Keep smiling!
(They squeeze out everything they have)
Almost done!
A fridge and a computer.
A cool fridge and the latest computer.
Almost done!
(Still keeps a chic face)
(The 2x speed doesn't give them a moment to rest)
Let's go! Almost there, girls!
(In a trance)
(Let's go! Let's go!)
(This 2x torture doesn't seem to end)
We're sorry, YG!
It looks like they'll succeed!
(This is why they're amazing rookies)
(All hail BLACKPINK!)
Success!
(Now they feel the pain)
BLACKPINK wins prizes! Congratulations.
They were amazing.
On their first appearance...
They've won some great prizes for their dorm.
How was the 2x speed dance?
(They shake their heads)
- No. - Just for "Stay."
(One time is enough)
They get a fridge and a computer.
But what you all really need now is...
(Clap, clap)
Pizza and fried chicken.
Fried chicken!
Thank you.
You can eat that in your car.
Eat it in your van on the way home.
I don't eat pizza.
We're so happy they did their best today.
This could be their last variety show appearance.
Let's hear their thoughts.
Rose, how was it for you?
I was so happy to be on TV with my dad today.
With her dad...
- I love you guys. - Thank you.
Ji Soo, how was it for you?
- You had fun. - Yes, I did.
I got to play the Korean drum.
Oh, right. But we might not air that...
The Korean drum!
Please support our new tracks "Playing With Fire" and "Stay."
And please continue to support us too.
(We thought they were tough, but they're so soft)
This has been BLACKPINK!
Thank you!
(We really hope to see you girls again)
Pizza!
(Please tune in next Wednesday at 6)
The emotional singer of Korea.
Kyu Hyun!
You claim you're one of the top 4 dancers in Super Junior?
Eun Hyuk, Dong Hae, Shin Dong, me.
(He shows his dancing machine DNA)
(Restrained sexiness)
He really is in the top 4.
(Dancing Kyu Hyun will shake up the show)
My album... Since it's fall...
Isn't it winter now?
- It's negative 2 degrees out now. - Right.
How have you been?
I'm doing fine.
We had fun back then, right?
When?
(A fall man trying to survive during winter)
(Don't miss Kyuhyun next episode)
("Playing With Fire" by BLACKPINK)
