- Whether it's here... - Or there...
- In the end... - Weekly Idol!
Hello!
We'll do our best today.
(Weekly Idol Starting News)
This is our first report.
Viewers have been saying that the show has been getting better.
- We finally got complimented. - Yeah?
But a few people have been saying
that our captions are corny and old.
Staff members, please step it up.
Try to express yourselves better,
so that the captions are funnier.
- The captions are important. - We're sorry.
This is the second report.
The first-time performances of new songs
on our show have been a hot topic.
Even today another amazing idol group
will perform their new song
at this shabby bare-bones studio for the first time ever.
That's right.
For the first time today.
Be excited and please wait for it.
We'll do our best today.
Now it's time to introduce today's Thumbs Up Idol of the Week.
They debuted last August.
They were chosen as 2017's
best new K-Pop group by Billboard.
They have refreshing energy.
Today's Thumbs Up Idol of the Week is...
ONF!
(Comes running in)
ONF!
("Complete" by ONF)
(A shoe-tying dance move!)
(They put on headbands)
(Ready to run)
(Let's run, ONF!)
(MK is so refreshing)
(J-US comes next)
(U goes to the center)
(Such tight choreography)
(Hyo Jin sings a high note)
(You complete me)
(So refreshing)
They're good.
(Tight choreography)
(Wyatt's sweet voice can be heard)
- It got faster. - 2x speed!
(Now they dance at 2x speed)
(Wyatt's rapping sounds great at 2x speed)
(They all hop around)
(The beat gets faster)
(But they still remain cute)
(The 7 of them are so refreshing)
(The killer part)
(They get through this part just fine)
(There's even some acting)
(They love the little act)
- They're acting. - They can act.
(They're almost at the end)
(Hang in there, guys!)
(ONF's "Complete!")
ONF!
(Great job, ONF)
(Satisfied)
Today's Thumbs Up Idol of the Week is ONF!
1, 2.
Light's on! Hello! We're ONF!
Hello.
(So determined)
The first song you performed...
Was that your new song?
Tell us about it.
This new song
is the title track on our 2nd mini album. It's called "Complete."
- I loved it. - Such a refreshing song.
It reminded me of the beach.
They could play it at a club too.
I saw E-Tion acting.
(This part)
(Stop it and come back here)
(Oops)
This part?
- Do you always do that part? - Yes.
- It's part of the choreography? - Yes.
I thought you made a mistake at first.
You fooled us.
It was a mistake, but then I improvised that.
(What?)
Are you messing with me now?
He is.
Your acting was so natural.
His voice echoes in your ear.
- Thank you. - Such a nice voice.
- Wyatt, you're a rapper? - Yes.
You have a great voice.
When did your voice get so husky?
As I got older when I was young...
As you got older when you were young? How old are you now?
How old were you when your voice got really husky?
At around 6th grade.
My voice changed a bit early.
That's super early.
"Teacher."
"My mom brought an umbrella."
(LOL)
Can you say, "Good night?"
Good night, everyone.
(Good night, ONF fans)
What a great voice.
Let's move on. The Charm Mining Cam.
(Director Yoo's Charm Mining Cam)
Laun.
Hello, I'm the milky boy Laun.
(So adorable)
I'll do a girl group dance.
Great!
Cue the music.
("Secret Garden" by OH MY GIRL)
(It's time for Laun to shine)
(Startled)
(All united through a girl group dance)
(We won't forget this cute sight)
So bubbly!
His dancing looks so pretty!
(Shows off his epic cuteness)
(Laun is doing great)
His dancing looked so pretty.
(Smiling like fathers)
How is he so good at this?
(He gets everyone feeling pumped)
Here we go!
(Like a baby dancing for adults)
(What is Love? We think it's Laun)
(Laun was so adorable)
- He's good. - Such pretty dancing.
It wasn't just his dancing. His facial expressions were great too.
(Let's watch this nice scene again)
(The smiling angel from Ilsan)
His facial expressions were great.
Are you a dance major?
Yes, applied dance.
Next is Hyo Jin.
He must feel pressured.
Hello! I'm Hyo Jin and I'm the sentimental leader.
Nice.
I'll sing while imitating the echo effect at karaoke.
Like you're singing at karaoke.
He'll make the echo himself.
I'll sing "When Would it Be"
by Yoon Hyun Sang and IU.
(Go, Hyo Jin)
("When Would it Be" by Yoon Hyun Sang featuring IU)
(Such an amazing skill...)
(Hesitates)
(This is just his voice)
He's good.
That's it.
He's good!
(The hosts want to copy him)
Echo, echo, echo.
He's good.
So this puts pressures on E-Tion.
(Determined)
Alright.
(Se Yoon gets closer)
Hello, I'm the sensational one. I'm E-Tion.
I've prepared some impressions.
I'll do an impression of Voldemort, the villain of "Harry Potter."
Voldemort.
(Abracadabra!)
(What was that?)
Abracadabra!
Moving on, I'll do an impression of Kim Je Dong.
- Alright. - Sounds good.
Hello, I'm Kim Je Dong.
Moving on, is my impression of Bobby Kim.
He's like a comedian.
♪ Bobby Kim ♪
(A very brief Bobby Kim impression)
(Just move on)
(Pleased with himself)
We can't just skip over this.
E-Tion knows this will be tough to edit.
E-Tion was pretty good.
It was really funny every time he said, "Moving on."
He did one after another.
U.
Hello, I'm the unique one. I'm U.
I'm the dancer of this team.
- I'll show you some freestyle dancing. - Great!
- Freestyle dancing! - Show us.
Great.
You can play any song.
He said any song. That's great.
(How about "Bombastic?")
We really did just play any song.
(Flustered)
Time out.
That was a bit too random.
How could you play that?
Is this a club?
They don't play this at clubs.
Look at his face before playing a song.
I can do this.
The dancer of ONF. It's U!
Let's go.
Here we go.
(Don't get flustered)
(Yikes!)
It's another club song.
(He starts moving to the rhythm)
Make it look cool!
(His dancing looks great)
(A true dancing master doesn't blame the music)
(U's dancing looks explosive)
(He's too good, so we'll change the song...)
(Ring, ring)
It got faster.
Make it cute!
They're playing this?
Let's go!
(He can dance to a tough song too)
(This is a dancing master)
(Sang Min is impressed)
That was awesome!
He can dance to anything.
Amazing.
He's good.
I got a lot of good footage today.
ONF.
Any last closing words?
Please support our title track "Complete."
And please support us too!
Thank you, guys. Please support ONF!
ONF!
Weekly Idol!
Today's Idol of the Week
has been on a hot streak
and now they just have to stay on this successful path.
They're promoting with a delicate fantasy theme.
And for this concept they'll be dreamlike and chic.
They've been on our show before,
but this is their first time as the main guests.
We even got a special door to welcome them.
It looks like the frame for someone's family photo.
Once they pass through that door
they'll enter this new world that is Weekly Idol.
- Come on in! - NU'EST W!
(They're excited about the entrance)
(Ren comes in seductively)
(Huh? Aron tries to be seductive)
Thanks.
(Baek Ho makes a powerful entrance)
(Oops!)
(JR comes in with a little act)
Welcome. Stand over there.
It's been a long time. 1, 2, 3.
Hello, we're NU'EST W.
Welcome.
So this is your first time here as the main guests.
- Yes. - Really?
I bet you're nervous.
Since this is our first time as main guests,
I feel a lot of pressure.
Since you're the leader.
As the leader.
How about you, Ren?
Since we're the main guests, I won't hold back today.
(They seem very determined)
How about some special greetings since you're the main guests?
Your song "Overcome" from 2016 was great.
Today, you're knights for your fans.
How about doing a greeting like that?
- JR first. - Me first?
I guess I'll elaborate.
I'm cute.
You are.
He's so confident.
Very bold.
I'm the cute knight JR!
(They're all shocked...)
Hello!
Nice.
(Reality hits the cute knight)
That was cute. Come back. That was really cute.
Don't be embarrassed. It's fine.
(Moves)
Why are you changing places?
You have a lot to think about?
Aron, go ahead.
Hello, the tsundere knight Aron.
- Tsundere? - Tsundere.
(Aron is a tsundere?)
W-What are you looking at?
(That didn't sound so chic)
What are you looking at? Don't look at me.
Baek Ho.
Hello, I'm Baek Ho of NU'EST W.
(Do a good job)
I'm a knight...
(Is that it?)
Why is he so shy?
This isn't a job interview.
He's so shy.
- He's a shy guy. - Oh, so he's shy.
Hello, I'm Baek Ho. I'm a knight.
Let's go.
- A shy knight. - A bashful knight.
I'm a knight that you'd be excited to see every day.
(Who might that be?)
I'm a parcel deliveryman.
A parcel deliveryman?
Nice.
(Delivering parcels of love)
How sweet.
So we talked about this before you guys made your entrances.
You all entered through that door.
We'll tell you the meaning behind that door
You guys have arrived in the fantasy world of Weekly Idol World.
You have to get into this situation.
Shin Young is the queen that's trapped in this world.
Let's not do this.
I'll get in trouble if you call me a queen.
The people might hate that.
Just today. For fun.
It might be for fun, but they'll all badmouth me.
Consider me a tool for the missions.
I'm not important.
You need something to play for.
You're minor.
- I'll be the minor queen. - The minor queen.
So today NU'EST W will try to
save Queen Shin Young.
Save the queen.
That sounds fun.
A minor queen.
If you clear the missions today
you'll be able to win some prizes.
Prizes?
Bring it in.
(Watches)
(Wow, what's that?)
We have watches made of 5 different gemstones.
You have to win all 5 watches
to save Minor Queen Shin Young.
We got those made.
They look familiar, don't they?
They're limited editions.
Do they remind you of anything?
Take a good look. They're made with your birth stones.
- They're made with our birth stones? - Yes.
We didn't have that much money to spend
so we got them made with cubic zirconias.
But the birth stones are real, right?
These don't tell the right time?
We'll just set the time later.
We need these to save the great queen?
Right.
Don't say great. I'm the minor queen.
Very minor.
(LOL)
Do you think you'll be rescued?
This is quite the role you all gave me.
You can't not rescue her on purpose.
- We'll do our best. - You have to try.
I've experienced that a lot already.
People not rescuing me.
Don't those watches look familiar?
Maybe you saw them in your dreams.
(Where did we see those?)
(Unsure)
When do you think you saw those before?
I think I saw them in a movie.
- Watches like that? - Benjamin's...
They were in our music video.
- I don't think he knew. - You didn't see our music video?
I knew that.
(This watch)
I tried to interpret it differently.
Yeah, you guys did a lot of music videos.
They look familiar, don't they?
It's "Dejavu."
Just for us to say that... Sang Min kept asking,
"Don't they look familiar?"
So tell us about your album concept.
For this album, our title track is called "Dejavu."
It's your first experience, but it strangely
seems familiar like it already happened.
Baek Ho, you wrote and composed this song too?
- Yes. - Really? Yourself?
Yes, I did.
JR helped write the lyrics.
Just some of the lyrics.
What's the genre?
- Latin pop. - Latin pop.
You guys are going to perform your new song here for the first time.
So we're really excited about that.
One group performed their song here for the first time
and the song hit 1st shortly afterwards.
So we have to see this.
Just verse 1.
- We'd even be thankful for that. - Right.
It's NU'EST W's "Dejavu" for the first time ever.
Cue the music!
("Dejavu" by NU'EST W)
(Ren's sweet voice starts the song)
(So sexy)
(He looks fierce when he performs)
(The formation comes together)
(Their new song is kind of sexy)
(Baek Ho sings with his clear voice)
(Their dancing looks flawless)
(Everything is so precise)
(A sexy song that's perfect for their voices)
(The catchy bass starts)
(The hook is catchy too)
(Heart attack)
(They end it looking classy)
(This already smells like a hit...)
I want to see more.
Can we hear more of the song?
- That was great. - Great song.
Thank you.
(Humming the song)
That bass was awesome.
Thank you.
It's a great song.
So we should see this
at 2x speed now.
It'll look awesome at 2x speed.
2x speed?
- Have you tried practicing? - No.
(Of course they haven't tried this...)
Not even once?
We finished the choreography for verse 1 yesterday
and this was our first time showing anyone.
You haven't practiced the 2x speed dance at all.
2x speed?
So shall we make the 2x speed dance the first mission?
The first mission for a watch.
Rescue the queen!
Stop that. I'll get in trouble.
To win the watch!
I'm just a minor queen.
Today's minor queen!
Rescue the queen!
The minor queen. I'm no queen.
We'll try to rescue her.
They said they'd rescue you.
Rescue! Rescue! I'm not a big deal.
We should lock you up somewhere.
The 2x speed dance can help rescue the queen.
NU'EST W's 2x speed dance.
Cue...
I don't think I can do this.
Let's just do this.
My body can't move that fast.
You can do this.
Sorry but...
(Stop talking, guys)
You can't talk so much.
I thought it was ASMR.
(They have good hearing)
Cue the music!
("Dejavu" 2x speed version)
(These guys always look good)
(JR and Baek Ho look sexy)
(JR doesn't act cute anymore)
(JR dances with Ren)
(2x speed is no problem for them)
(Even 2x speed can't stop them from being sexy)
(They're so reliable)
(Beak Ho changes when he performs)
(They can't not be sexy)
(It's like they're models on a runway)
(My dejavu, dejavu)
(They succeed at the 2x speed dance!)
Success!
(Relaxed)
Success.
They pulled it off.
We'll give you the first knight's watch!
(Yahoo)
This watch goes to Aron.
Made with emeralds which is Aron's birth stone.
They've cleared a mission...
Careful.
To rescue the queen.
It's well-made.
Congratulations.
How was the 2x speed dance?
I felt like dying.
(So honest)
(Who made JR so tired? Oh, it was us...)
I didn't think it would be this fast.
It's really fast.
Baek Ho looks great now that he's sweaty.
JR and Baek Ho should take an herbal tonic.
They're so sweaty.
Let's give them time to wipe their sweat.
Get prettied up again.
Don't wipe that sweat off. You look so sexy.
You look really sexy now.
(As they cool off their sexy sweat...)
We saw their new song at 2x speed.
You guys are all warmed up now, right?
Yes.
Now it's the mission to get the second watch.
The second mission
is the Random Rollercoaster Dance!
Like riding a rollercoaster,
the song speeds up and slows down at times.
That's the usual segment.
But you guys have been on a hot streak.
So many great songs.
So we'll play songs at randomly at varying speeds.
That sounds hard.
Not even we know when a song will play and what part of the song it'll be.
And where it speeds up.
This should be the hardest Rollercoaster Dance ever.
Because we'll be playing songs at random too.
So if you succeed at this,
you get your second knight's watch!
- Are you ready? - Yes.
Here we go.
NU'EST W's Random Rollercoaster Dance.
Cue...
(JR is scared)
The music!
(Let's go!)
("Where You At" by NU'EST W)
From the beginning...
(They find their places and act natural)
Is this "Where You At?"
(JR is so precious and lovely)
(JR is doing most of the dancing now)
(Trips up)
Baek Ho!
(I shouldn't be smiling)
(So sexy)
(What a sexy looking mango...)
You have to slow down.
We can do this.
(He sounds like a leader here!)
("Hello" by NU'EST W)
(Becomes silent from surprise)
Here it comes.
We let that one slide.
(We have our eyes on Ren)
(Slows down)
Oh, come on.
(The song sounds so sad)
(Freeze)
(They start moving)
("Where You At" by NU'EST W)
(Everyone is wary)
Verse 2, verse 2.
(Aron seems lost)
Line up, line up.
(Argh!)
You fail!
Ren!
(Why you...)
Ren!
Aron had to hold back his anger.
(Ren got Aron's blood pressure up )
What was that just now?
Wasn't it verse 2?
How can you tell which verse it was?
- It was verse 1. - No.
It was verse 1.
My bad.
(A quick apology)
How can you tell which verse it was?
Since their formation is different depending on the verse...
- Is it different? - Yes.
But I'm sure of this...
Ren was definitely unsure.
Be honest.
There's no dancing for that part of "Where You At."
For real.
- Really. - We just line up.
But he didn't line up.
I was in front.
(We can't believe this guy...)
So when you line up...
You do it like that?
- That's how he does it. - He rushes like that?
We'll give you one more chance.
Okay.
Baek Ho is sweaty again.
(Dripping sweat)
Why do you like it when Baek Ho gets sweaty?
He looks so hot.
(He loves seeing Baek Ho sweaty)
Maybe he should sell his sweat.
As a cologne. Baek Ho and Gabbana.
(Baek Ho and Gabbana cologne)
(They laugh at the silly name)
Here we go. Cue...
Don't let if show if you make a mistake.
(They're plotting)
(What was that?)
Hold on. Baek Ho, we all heard that.
You can't act like you didn't make a mistake.
If we don't spot the mistake, we'll let it slide.
If they make it look natural.
I've seen them perform a lot on "Show Champion."
As long as Shin Young doesn't notice your mistakes.
The queen is too strict...
- She's a strict queen? - A strict queen.
So strict.
(Try to beat the queen!)
This is your last chance.
(They get in their formation)
Here?
Why do I have no confidence?
This could be a rash decision.
That's how you'll start?
- You can change your formation. - Are you sure?
We'll give you a chance.
Trust me.
- You'll start like this? - Yes.
For the first time, a group got into formation by predicting the song.
They can predict the song.
The Random Rollercoaster Dance. Cue...
You're really going to start like that?
Okay, okay.
Cue the music!
("Where You At" by NU'EST W)
(Sorry about that, guys...)
You were wrong.
(Shouting already?)
(They get flustered 5 seconds into it)
(He seems pleased)
(Now they seem stable)
[Kocowa Ver] E361 Weekly Idol "ONF & NU'EST W" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(What's with Sang Min's mouth?)
(They're so sexy)
(Their sexiness is still unaffected)
Here it is!
("Hello" by NU'EST W)
(They move naturally like it's all one dance)
Please...
(So sweet)
(Baek Ho's voice sound sad)
- So sad. - I'm about to cry.
(The hard part of "Hello")
Verse 1.
(Planning ahead)
("Where You At" by NU'EST W)
Stay standing. Stand still.
(Stop moving, Ren!)
(LOL)
(Let's go, NU'EST W!)
They did it.
(It's finally almost over)
Ren!
(Ren runs into Baek Ho)
(All eyes on Ren!)
This is how it goes.
(Here comes Ren again)
(Please, Ren...)
(We change the song since they're doing so well!)
("Hello" by NU'EST W)
Just stand there. Don't move.
(Don't move!)
You fail!
(I didn't do anything wrong)
(They're all flustered)
You fail.
Ren, that was so funny.
Ren was about to walk...
(Quickly steps back)
This is really confusing.
- Right? - This is hard.
This means that they didn't get the watch.
(They react the same way)
But you'll have more chances to get the watches.
We've waited a long time.
NU'EST W's Self-Written Report!
We'll find out more about the members and give them more mission
so that they can win the watches.
As we're going through your self-written profiles,
we'll give you missions.
First is JR.
There was a big deal on social media recently.
The JR tour.
It was so lovely.
What's the JR tour?
My birthday was on June 8.
So they made an advertisement at a subway station.
- On an electronic display. - Right.
We wanted to go there in secret
and throw a surprise for the fans.
So I dressed as Squirtle...
That's your nickname.
So I prepared a Squirtle costume
(Source: YouTube)
He wore that costume.
He wore that?
He really stands out.
I bet it was hot in there.
It was okay since it was at night.
- You're waddling. - So the fans already knew.
Yes, they knew, but not at first.
- Since you kept walking around. - Yes.
No wonder you have so many fans.
That was a little event I did.
How long were you out there like that?
Around 2.5 to 3 hours.
Your strength is your ability to concentrate on one thing.
That's right.
- If you get obsessed with something. - Yes.
A man looks his sexiest when he's focusing on something.
Yeah.
So let's see how good his focus is. We prepared a little something.
To test his concentration...
(A concentration test for JR)
See these colorful chocolate candies?
The member that sorts them by color first
is the king of concentration.
The one that becomes the king of concentration
will get a tumbler as a gift.
Start!
Yell out when you're finished.
JR is fast.
He's fast.
Aron is fast.
Aron.
Aron is going for the yellow ones.
Just one color at a time.
JR is doing one color at a time.
Aron seems the fastest.
Aron is really fast.
(Aron is very focused)
Ren, are you just doing the orange ones?
JR might have the best strategy.
Just one color left.
JR is almost done.
Almost done with blue!
Will it be JR or Aron? JR or Aron?
What are you doing?
Wow...
(The last remaining color)
JR!
One more piece!
(Calm / Almost done / Calm / Total mess)
You missed one, JR.
He's so laid back.
JR is the king of concentration!
Here's your tumbler.
You get a tumbler.
He's definitely fast.
He really has good concentration.
Bet you want this. It's mine.
(Time for him to tease the others)
He teased him so seriously.
Serious teasing.
Time for the second report.
It's Aron.
Your Korean name is Gwak Aron.
Aron is my American name.
My Korean name is Gwak Yeong Min.
Yeong Min.
I heard you're good at dad jokes.
I haven't done dad jokes in a while.
How about this?
What time did the man go to the dentist?
(What could it be?)
What is it?
(Hurry and tell them...)
Tooth hurt-y.
Sorry about that.
I didn't know that one.
Wow.. Tooth hurt-y like 2:30.
That was cute.
Got another one?
Tell one more.
What else was there?
The time a man goes to the dentist.
What do you call an American bee?
I know.
(He knows)
I know.
USB.
I know.
USB.
(LOL)
I was just thinking of bees.
USB!
That was funny.
USB!
(These dad jokes are addictive)
Got another one?
Another one?
Well...
When you say hi twice?
Lee Hi.
(Correct)
(They connect through the jokes)
He's so pleased.
Look how happy he is.
That was perfect.
It's great when you tell a dad joke and someone actually likes it.
- He was clapping really hard. - That was perfect.
His nicknames...
Child and Noah's dad. What's Noah's dad?
(Curious)
I got a dog recently.
So my fans call me Noah's dad.
How old is Noah?
6 months old.
I bet he's adorable.
No, he's a bad dog.
He is? Why?
He's a mischief maker?
Yes, he's very playful.
Has he peed in front of you before?
Yes, I put down 3 potty pads in dorms this morning.
Then he looked me in the face and pooped
right beside the potty pad.
Trying to get you to notice.
"Oh, I see."
Why go there when the potty pad is right next to you?
He doesn't like it that you go out and work.
He was upset.
Let's move on to the next one.
Ren!
- His nickname is mango. - That's right.
Why though?
My real name is Min Gi.
That's MG.
So my friends called me mango since I was a kid.
Mango, Mang Gu, Mang Gi.
Min Gi.
You're dressed like a mango today.
A happy coincidence.
And his strength... I didn't know this.
He's fun-loving.
When I'm just talking, people can't tell.
You seem shy and introverted.
That's how most people see me, but once I get excited
I can't contain it.
So you go nuts when you get excited.
I got so pumped up when I saw Celeb Five perform. I started going...
(All of a sudden?)
Really? Can you do the dance?
(Revving up)
(So seductive)
He practices this at home.
Look at his face.
(I can't watch)
He can dance to girl group songs.
- His movements look so pretty. - Yeah.
(Dances to "Up and Down")
(So pumped up!)
I know he practiced at home.
He's been practicing at home.
I guarantee it. He definitely practiced at home.
He's so talented.
Once I was dancing by myself like that and Aron opened the door.
Like being caught by your mom.
(We can already feel the embarrassment)
I was...
Aron, tell us what happened.
Tell us the situation.
We don't want to hear from Ren. We want to hear from Aron.
I was lying down watching TV in the living room.
And there was a lot of noise coming from Ren's room.
I asked him, "Can you keep it down since I'm watching TV?"
He didn't respond.
So I figured he was doing something in his room.
So I had my phone ready to shoot a clip of him.
Aron, you're quite the character too.
Can I tell them what happened?
(How long will they make us wait?)
Can I tell them what happened?
Yes. Yeah, just tell them.
Yeah, just tell them.
He wasn't wearing anything...
(Getting interesting)
He wasn't wearing anything except sunglasses...
Dancing in front of the mirror by himself.
(It's Ren's show time)
(Unaffected)
As soon as he saw me he yelled at closed the door.
I was so surprised.
I bet. It's like being caught by your mom.
It gets hot when you dance in your clothes
so I took them off.
Since you have to shower again.
Then I put on sunglasses to pretend I was on stage.
Aren't you tired when you get home after all those gigs?
- He's a fun-loving guy. - You have energy left?
Yes, sometimes I have regrets.
I wish I could've done better for some performances.
He really likes being on stage.
We used to share a room.
Back then...
You must've seen a lot of this.
What did you do when he dances by himself?
I dance with him.
- You do, JR? - They hang out a lot.
He danced with me when he was in a good mood,
but if he wasn't he'd usually in front of the computer.
That's when I danced in front of him.
Then he'd tell me to go away.
I didn't even say that. I just focused on the computer.
- You ignored him. - I just focused on this.
Then I'd go dance by myself.
That's so funny.
Ren wants to chicken fight on the show.
I'm pretty good at chicken fighting among the members.
I feel like Baek Ho would be good.
- But... - I lost to him.
We fought once but I lost.
You lost, Baek Ho?
I was very determined.
And he has long legs. He smashes down from above.
He can come down from above?
He's really chaotic when he plays.
- He flies around? - Yes.
He gets us all confused.
- He's like a real chicken? - Yes.
How about having a chicken fight?
Let's have a chicken fight.
(Round 1 of the chicken fight)
It'll be survival. 1:1.
1:1?
Ren and JR.
Do you lose if you step off this thing?
- Former roommates. - I'm scared.
I'm scared.
He spoke in dialect.
(JR vs. Ren)
Start!
- JR, you know what to do. - I don't know anything.
Hold on. Stop.
Ren does have long legs.
(Ren attacks!)
(No stopping!)
(He beats his former roommate easily!)
(Feeling betrayed)
He jumps up to here.
His leg goes up here. He could probably hit your head.
Now it's Aron!
Aron will be less of a match.
(I'll take anyone on)
(Aron vs. Ren)
Hold on.
Hold on. Let me catch my breath.
(Catch your breath after it's over!)
He's not out of bounds yet.
(Strike!)
(Ow!)
- I think he went out. - You lose if you go out?
No, no.
Hold on.
(Hold on)
It's like a weapon.
It's like a fist.
(This is an amazing knee)
Timeout.
Did you see that?
(Exhausted after a chicken fight)
His legs are so long.
It's like he sharpened his knee.
His knee is so sharp.
(Ren vs. Baek Ho)
I've been on this foot for a long time.
(Hopping, heavy)
(So determined)
(I'll show you how bitter life can be!)
(Here comes Ren's downward strike!)
(I'm rooting for the winner)
(Ren flies)
(Plop!)
Are you okay?
I'm fine. Did I just lose?
Ren is so funny!
I haven't seen a guy this funny on a variety show in a long time.
(To the variety show god...)
(Thank you for giving us Ren He's hilarious)
(We don't know about chicken fighting but you're definitely the funniest one...)
I loved how Ren's hair kept flopping around.
(Flopping)
I loved that.
That was so funny.
Since we have a mat here let's play the second game.
It's pig wrestling.
Do whatever you want, Ren!
(All four will play at once)
Look this way.
(Aron is scared and directs Ren to a different target)
I feel like I'll fall over right now.
You have to stay on the mat.
And the last person left gets an air fryer.
(Eyes open wide)
Ready... Start.
Please!
It's so slippery!
(Aron falls trying to push Ren)
- Aron is out! - Get off the mat.
Am I out?
No, no.
(The widest his eyes have gotten today)
Can you get back up?
No! No!
(Why is Ren so determined?)
(Baek Ho is pushed out by JR)
Baek Ho is out!
(Ren attacks while lying down)
Can you get back up?
(He attacks by rolling)
(JR is pushed out of bounds)
Ren wins!
Now you have to get back up.
Get back up. Come on, Ren!
(Rolling)
- Ren, you have to get back up. - Get back up!
(Struggles to get back up)
You have to get back up!
Get back up, Ren!
(It's really hard for him to get back up)
You just did it!
(How will his second try go?)
(He's up)
(Ren wins at pig wrestling)
He's a variety show star!
Ren is a gem.
(Exhausted)
You get an air fryer!
Wow... That was so funny.
The last report is Baek Ho's.
A sexy bandit.
Se Yoon rarely tells another man that he's sexy.
I really like how his facial hair grows.
There aren't many idols that grow facial hair like that.
A lot of them get hair removal.
So I find you very handsome.
Our boss asked me if I'd consider getting hair removal done.
But this is what made me famous.
(Baek Ho's style is so unique)
No other idol is like you.
Nobody that looks like this.
So the perfect Baek Ho has one weakness.
- He can't do embarrassing things. - Oh, embarrassing things.
- You can't take it? - I can't.
That's why you couldn't do the knight greeting.
I can't do stuff like that.
We thought he couldn't do stuff like that,
but our staff...
Oh, no. Should we even air this?
Found a clip of Baek Ho that proves otherwise.
Show us the clip!
(Oh)
(Oh, my God)
Baek Ho!
(Source: YouTube)
(Acting cute by himself)
- He was alone. - Baek Ho!
Honey!
(Why did I do that?)
(He doesn't seem so embarrassed here)
(JR claps)
Why did you that?
It's a misunderstanding.
How? We just saw you do it.
Is that not you?
- It's me. - Right.
Were you in 8th grade then?
No...
It was when we were recording our previous album.
- But it's a misunderstanding. - A misunderstanding?
It looks I did that because I wanted to,
but that clip was edited.
- What? - The clip was edited.
They forced me to do it when I kept refusing.
And they made it look like I did that by choice.
You still got through it.
(Yes...)
How about overcoming this weakness?
You have to overcome it.
Just do exactly what you see in this next clip.
(The cute shark song)
(He already lost his mind)
(Baek Ho has to do that?)
Do the shark song.
Let's go.
Let's go!
(He gets ready to do the song)
Cue the music.
(Automatic smiles)
(He tries his best)
Look at the other guys...
(Sad...)
Let's go, let's go.
Okay, bob your shoulders.
Make the right face and move your head.
(Dizzy)
(Gives up after seeing his members react)
He really can't do embarrassing things.
Ren, can you do this?
I think I can do this.
Here's the fun-loving one.
Cue the music.
(The leader is shocked)
(They can't get enough of Ren)
(Moving his head)
(Such a silly baby shark)
(The others are bewildered)
(Turns into the mommy shark)
See? He's so fun-loving.
- He's crazy! - He's shaking his head too much.
(Here comes the daddy shark)
He definitely tried this at home already.
(He shows off what he practiced)
(Such a seductive granny shark)
Ren! He's so funny.
That was great!
(Respect for Ren)
He's good.
So cute.
The staff told us that we should make you try it, JR.
I can't keep up with him.
(Pleased)
He's too good.
JR will do the next one then.
- There's another one? - Yes.
(Our signature cuteness song)
(Everyone on our show has to do this)
The cute knight JR!
Cue the music.
(Honey)
He's good.
(JR shoots his love bullets)
(Acting silly)
Aron was shocked.
(An unbelievable sight)
(This is how the members react as they watch their leader)
(Surprised / Doesn't watch / Wants to try)
(He keeps at it)
(JR acts so cute)
(Reality hits him again)
He's good!
Aron was shocked.
He felt betrayed.
You guys want to try
a teamwork test on the show.
JR also said he wanted to play a team game.
That's right.
Are you confident in your teamwork?
It's not that I'm confident. I want to gauge how well we do.
Because we all have different hobbies.
I see.
So I wanted to try this at least once.
That's why we have to check their teamwork too.
It's the teamwork test! Flip the magic carpet!
(What's that?)
What's that?
The magic carpet.
Oh...
- Is that really a magic carpet? - Yes.
This carpet is a different color on each side.
All of you guys have to stand on this carpet.
And while standing on the carpet, you have to flip it over.
(They get a watch if they succeed at this mission)
Without our shoes on.
(They take their shoes off first)
Stand on the carpet.
This is cramped.
It's very cramped.
(It's so nice to see them so close)
(They're all thinking of a plan)
I know.
Let's all stand in a line looking this way.
Like this?
(They all listen Aron)
I'll stand in front.
You can talk it over before you start.
Okay, okay.
So we move back little by little... Okay?
(They want to turn the carpet over as they move back...)
(Is that even possible?)
I don't think it'll work.
The carpet gets smaller.
(Aron's plan won't work)
(Time for JR to come up with an idea)
Let's all get on Baek Ho's back.
Is that possible?
(What will Baek Ho say?)
Alright.
Get on my back once it starts.
- Aron will flip the carpet. - I'll do it.
Ren and I will get on Baek Ho's back.
Get ready...
Tell us when you're ready.
Tell them when we're ready.
This is bad.
(Staring)
(What's with this eye-contact?)
Hold on. Ren!
What are you doing?
Why'd you gaze into his eyes?
I was shocked too. I didn't mean to.
- We'll play music for that. - Like this.
- Ready. - Ready.
They're ready! Start!
(Aron quickly turns the carpet over)
How will they do this?
(JR and Ren cling to Baek Ho)
(Clinging to Baek Ho...)
They're all clinging to Baek Ho.
I'm good.
(JR stands on the flipped carpet)
(The problem is these two)
This is embarrassing for me too.
He's good at enduring the embarrassing stuff.
This is even more embarrassing than the cuteness song.
Move your foot back.
Okay, okay.
Move it back. Lift your foot.
Nice.
A bit more.
Careful.
Does Ren have to cling to me?
(Ren is like dead weight)
The size...
Ren is trying his hardest for the game.
Like his life is on the line.
(Now it's time to finish up)
Put your foot here.
It's there.
They're doing it.
Nice. JR!
Okay, okay.
- Is it a success? - 1 minute left!
JR! Is it a success?
(They still have plenty of time left)
1 minute left!
(The carpet is totally flipped over)
(Now if Ren's feet touch the carpet they succeed)
Ren, you have to put your feet down now.
Just come back down.
Success!
(They really do have great teamwork)
With 50 seconds to spare they succeed!
(Impressed)
That was a record. And Baek Ho's power...
He's a strong guy.
(He really experienced Baek Ho's power)
(Let's see his amazing strength again)
So this watch goes to...
- His birth stone is a pearl. - Pearls.
JR!
You got your second watch.
- There are three left. - Three left.
You can win all the remaining watches through this segment.
(Interesting)
If you don't win them... She'll be forever...
Asleep?
Queen Shin Young will rot here forever.
Rot?
You're rotten.
For the last mission we got help from your fans.
NU'EST, do this for us!
(Clapping)
We took calls from your fans
before the shoot and they told us what they wanted you guys to do.
Hello, I'd like to ask the Weekly Idol call center for a wish.
NU'EST W has a song called "The Girl Next Door."
At the start of the song Ren says,
"Hey, buddy. Is that part-timer your older sister?"
I'd like to hear the other members say that too.
Please say it in your own style.
(Troubled)
Let's hear the original version first.
Hey, buddy.
Is that part-timer your older sister?
(Worried about their futures...)
Does she have a boyfriend?
She doesn't?
Then is it okay if I like her?
(Baek Ho seems troubled and JR seems prepared)
Your fan requested this.
Baek Ho is sweating now.
He can just do it in his style.
We'll save Baek Ho for last.
Shall we watch Aron do it?
Aron, go ahead.
Hey, buddy! Is that part-timer
your older sister?
(He's pretty good)
Does she have a boyfriend? She doesn't?
(Starts talking with a lisp)
Then is it okay if I like her?
Ppuing.
- That was good! - Better than I expected.
"She doesn't?"
(Now JR feels more pressured)
JR.
This is the first time he put his hands in his pockets.
He's getting into character.
So then...
You know my hometown, right? I'll do my version in dialect.
- Sounds good. - A Gangwon-do version.
(Thinking of Gangwon-do)
Hey, buddy. Is that part-timer your older sister?
Does she have a boyfriend?
No?
(Disbelief)
Then set her up with me.
(Click)
That was Gangwon-do dialect?
No.
That was Busan, right?
I'm not sure.
Seriously.
Wasn't it supposed to be Gangwon-do dialect?
I'm not good at Gangwon-do dialect.
- Baek Ho. - Yes.
(He can't stand doing embarrassing things)
(He failed at the shark song!)
(We don't know why, but things seem tense...)
Hey, buddy.
Is that part-timer your older sister?
He's good.
Does she have a boyfriend?
She doesn't? Then is it okay if I like her?
He's good.
- That was good. - He's like an actor.
Nice and simple.
Very nice.
Simple Baek Ho.
Time for the last request. If you do this, you get...
There are 3 left, right? You get all 3 watches.
There's a song I always listen to when I get off work.
It's "Sleep Talking."
Can you sing "Sleep Talking" and make it sound sexy?
A sexy version of "Sleep Talking."
(Sleep talking, sleep talking)
(A fan wants to see a sexy version of this song)
We're seated in the beginning.
What do we do for that?
Should we start off seated?
Make it sexy.
They're preparing something.
(JR gets in a sexy pose)
3 watches on the line. Cue the music!
("Sleep Talking" sexy version)
(They're all in sexy poses)
(You'll be talking in your sleep once you see this)
(Huh? Is this a dream? He's so sexy)
JR!
(Here come Aron doing a sexy body wave)
(Look at that body wave)
(So seductive)
(Here comes the sexy bandit Baek Ho)
Baek Ho is doing his best.
(This guy also does his best)
Look how red his ears are!
This is the sexy version.
(Sleep talk, sleep talk)
(Sexy mango)
(Ren turns on the sexiness)
(Ren is amazing)
Mango!
(A legendary version of "Sleep Talking")
Success!
The sexy version of "Sleep Talking."
- It was very sexy. - Yes, it was.
So this means they get all the watches.
Finally the remaining 3!
(A special gift for NU'EST W)
These knight watches are meaningful.
We got them custom made for you guys.
Even though you guys are busy,
we hope you can check your watches and find some free time.
JR, you hold onto Min Hyun's.
Alright.
We hope the end of your musical story
is a happy ending.
Tell us your thoughts on today's shoot.
I really enjoyed myself today.
We worked together as a team
and we got to see how well we work as a team.
JR came for the first episode.
He welcomed us here.
He really did.
I had so much fun then too.
And it was so nice that we were the main guests today.
This was our first time playing games here as the main guests.
You're right.
That's why it was more touching and fun.
You guys worked a long time on "Dejavu"
so I hope it becomes a hit.
And I hope you guys get even more love than you anticipated.
Please come again as our main guests.
Time for us to wrap up now.
Whether it's here...
Or there...
-In the end... -Weekly Idol
Good job.
Great job.
I've never gotten the chills from the beginning.
(These Thumbs Up Idols impress the hosts)
We'll be the A.C.E of K-Pop.
(It's the artists of Amoeba Culture)
It's a party for the Amoeba artists!
(It's on the boss! A party for the artists)
(Here's a little preview of the party)
(And a special story about HA:TFELT)
It was really hard preparing for my album.
I hope I see you around for a long time.
Who are we?
