(Hong Ji Min, the trending dieter)
(Lee Seung Hoon of Winner is well-prepared today.)
(Kim Moo Sung's man, Chun Jun Young)

(The movie-like story of 80 minutes,)
("Put Up With Your Fame", begins now!)
I'm Gook Jin, the oldest of Radio Star.
I've been putting up well with my role as the oldest so far.
Kids, listen to me well today as usual.
- I see. - I see.
I'm Jong Shin, the second oldest of Radio Star.
Do I look shallow because I joke around too much?
I'm sure a lot of you who came to my concert would know...
I'm a very serious man when it comes to music.
I'm Gu Ra, the third oldest.
I'm actually good at keeping secrets.
I don't talk about some crucial information that easily.
I don't care much about others' private lives that much either.
It's because you've obtained the vested right.
I just analyze things these days.
I'm Tae Hyun, the youngest of Radio Star.
I don't feel pressured here because I'm the youngest.
I feel no burden. However, when I'm home,
I feel exhausted because of so much responsibility.
I hope we can film for a long time today.
Until my kids to fall asleep. As long as possible!
Have chicken and beer before going home then.
That's right. We put up with the pressure as...
the master of Wednesday nights'. We want to feel more pressured though.
- We are Radio Star! - Radio Star!
Today, we invited four people who will be trending...
just because of their presence here on Radio Star today.
"Put Up With Your Fame" begins now!
She made her debut in the 90s. Since then, she appeared on dramas,
films, and variety shows. We even witnessed her marriage and divorce.
She hasn't been around the entertainment industry for a while.
However, she came back and now she's hip!
She's Lee Hye Young!
Well, looks like there's some misunderstandings going on.
Somehow she did this right after we mentioned her divorce.
(She's happy no matter what.)
She met her husband...
when she was the skinniest in her life.
She married him before she put her weight back on.
She had a baby, and she had another one.
Looked like she didn't think about going back to her moment again.
However, she succeeded to lose her weight again, and it's trending!
She's the working mom, Hong Ji Min!
(Working mom and the master of diet, Hong Ji Min)
She lost 30kg!
She looks so different.
She really does.
She looks even different from when she was in "Tae Hye Ji".
- How can that happen? - I see her every week.
But looks like she gained a little bit lately.
I mean, just slightly. Am I wrong?
She slightly gained her weight!
As the member of Winner, he's famous, good at dancing,
and good at fashion.
However, while other members were on Radio Star, he wasn't.
He has been feeling empty because of that.
He prepared a lot for today.
He brought numerous talents to Radio Star.
(He prepared a lot of things for the show.)
- Really? - That much?
Today is his day!
He's hoping to be an entertainer. Lee Seung Hoon of Winner!
- Lee Seung Hoon! - He is...
the dancer of Winner. He creates choreographies.
Looks like he prepared a lot of things to show us today.
This guy made Kim Moo Sung smile. He's Kim Moo Sung's man.
Chun Jun Young, the reporter who looks like Park Bo Gum...
became the producer of MBC.
He's the honest witness of the era.
Chun Jun Young, the producer!
That's great!
- Welcome. - Thanks for coming.
(Lee Hye Young, Hong Ji Min, Lee Seung Hoon, Chun Jun Young)
Hye Young, it's nice to see you.
- It's been a while. - Please say hello to our viewers.
It's been a while since I was on a TV program.
I don't think you wanted to know how I was doing while I was gone.
But I'm sure you are now curious about my life since I'm here.
Lee Hye Young is back!
Welcome.
She's the beauty from Incheon.
She's from Incheon.
She and Hwang Shin Hye are the most beautiful women from Incheon.
Lee So Ra is from Incheon too.
- Many stars are from Incheon. - That's right.
- Ji Min, please say hello. - Yes?
I must prevent the yo-yo effect.
I'm musical actor Hong Ji Min.
- It's nice to meet you. - Welcome.
She's living a very happy life.
- Her husband is very nice too. - That's right.
- Seung Hoon, please say hello. - Yes.
I'm the fourth member of Winner to be on Radio Star,
the clean-up hitter of Winner and the home run king, Lee Seung Hoon.
(A perfect pose)
I think it hurt his feelings a lot.
It seems like he prepared a lot seeing that pose and everything.
- He got his nose pierced too. - Now...
- I did it a while ago. - I see.
Our last guest doesn't look so familiar.
Who are you?
Hello. I'm a producer of current affairs programs at MBC.
- I'm Chun Jun Young. - Chun Jun Young.
He's the first producer guest on Radio Star.
He looks a little bit like Gook Jin.
We should have a match.
He looks like Gook Jin.
- He's a very handsome producer. - Right.
Which program are you producing right now?
- "PD Notebook". - I see.
You've been facing a number of lawsuits and complaints.
- I heard that Jun Young... - It's really hard.
had been very famous before he joined MBC.
- Because of this. - Really?
(This is the meme that made him famous.)
(They became interested.)
- You were a reporter then, right? - Yes.
- Could you tell us about it? - You were a political reporter.
I was a reporter before I joined MBC.
It was before the general election, and I was a trainee reporter.
Kim Moo Sung was the representative of Saenuri Party back then.
- The nomination scandal happened. - It was right then.
(He shows off his knowledge as the host of "Battle of Tongues".)
I went there...
and asked him what he was planning to do next.
I was going through a hard time as a trainee reporter.
- He was in a difficult situation. - Right.
So I guess he empathized with my feelings.
Did you become a producer when you were a reporter?
- Yes, that's right. - Did you move to another company?
- Which network did you work at? - He changed his career path.
- It says "YTN". - Did you work at YTN?
No, it starts with "M".
- MBN? - It starts with "M"...
- just like MBC. - I used to work at MBN.
- Both of them start with "M". - I see. You worked at MBN.
- Hye Young thought he worked at... - It says "YTN".
YTN because it's written on the screen.
It's not that only reporters of YTN appear in that.
(Embarrassed)
However, he doesn't like to be called Kim Moo Sung's man.
It was taken...
while I was doing my job.
At first, it seemed like I was made fun of.
So I was worried it might make it hard for me to do my job.
They look like a father and his son.
As a matter of fact, his son is an actor.
Oh, right. His son is an actor.
I heard he dated my friend.
(I heard he dated my friend.)
He says a lot of unnecessary things.
- My goodness. - It's true.
(The former reporter has information that even Gu Ra doesn't have.)
It would be okay if he told his friends,
but telling that on a TV show...
is not common.
I think we have to tell our viewers about Jun Young...
- for those who don't know him. - Of course.
Hye Young suddenly started...
- appearing on variety shows. - Exactly.
- This is my third time. - Is it?
- You left a strong impression. - That's right.
I guess so.
You were shocked by young people who didn't know you on "Sugar Man".
I was so shocked.
I was used to living as a celebrity whom every Korean knew.
- It wasn't long ago. - You were too confident.
Exactly.
When I went to Geoje Island for filming,
even at the small store where I bought a toothbrush and toothpaste,
- a lady in the store... - Was she excited to see you?
recognized me. I was really famous.
- But on "Sugar Man", - At some point...
the teenagers and those in their 20s didn't know who I am.
My goodness. I was...
I felt really sad.
- How long were you on a hiatus? - About 10 years.
- 10 years... - It's understandable.
- They wouldn't know who you are. - It's understandable.
Teenagers and those in their 20s these days...
when they see a celebrity whom they don't like,
- They don't show any interest. - they don't show any interest.
I really like it.
Whatever.
(Upset)
- I just told you how I felt. - I know.
- She felt sad. - I'm telling you how I feel.
- It's sad. - I feel apologetic towards her...
because I heard from the writer...
- that Lee Hye Young would be here. - Did you think of the actress?
- Yes, I thought it was the actress. - I see.
Director Lee Man Hee's daughter?
When I heard she was the member of Coco,
I was very excited.
She was a member of 1730 too.
Your stage name was Romy when you were a member of 1730.
- How do you know that? - I know.
I'm so excited whenever I meet someone like him.
- It was a long time ago. - Yes.
- I used to... Yes, Romy. - Your stage name was Romy.
- She must be happy. - Yes. It suddenly came to my mind.
- When I recorded a show on MBC, - I suddenly remembered it.
all the staff members who were working in different studios...
- They went to see you? - came to see me.
(Proud)
She hasn't changed at all.
- She's adorable. - She hasn't changed at all.
Anyway, Hye Young,
- you used to be Winner's fan. - Yes, I was.
You were?
Do you like a different idol group now?
- You can be a fan of many groups. - In fact,
the reason I decided to appear on "Sugar Man"...
was not because I wanted to return to the TV industry.
I said I would appear on the show...
if Wanna One sings my song.
- I said it jokingly... - Wanna One?
because I knew it wouldn't happen.
- But I got a call back. - Right.
That's how I appeared on that show.
Was Kang Daniel there too?
I sat next to Daniel.
(The memory of the day makes her dance.)
That's how I started appearing on TV shows again.
- An idol group helped you return. - Yes.
It's not that I don't like Winner anymore.
- I like both Winner and Wanna One. - Of course.
- You know how things are. - Yes.
When we became very popular right after we made our debut,
she posted about us on social media.
But I knew she would change her mind in a few months.
(I'm sorry.)
They were born after you made your debut, Hye Young.
I know.
- Ji Min, you look very different. - Yes.
- How did you... - Through diet.
Yes. I calculated calories.
- I see. - Accurately.
- You must be good at math. - I realized...
(Laughing)
- It's related to math. - I realized...
that if I burn more calories...
than I eat, I can lose weight.
So I consumed only 1,600kcal per day.
I consumed 700kcal for breakfast, 600kcal for lunch,
and 300kcal for dinner.
It was hard to eat so little for dinner.
- So... - How much food can you eat?
To consume 300kcal...
- It depends on the food... - Could you...
- and how you eat it. - give us an example?
So I ate lowest-calorie food because I can't stand being hungry.
- I ate this much of cucumbers. - I see.
- Or cherry tomatoes. - And acorn jelly.
Or a lot of steamed cabbage.
I ate low-calorie food as much as I wanted.
I ate a lot until I felt full.
- Less than 1,600kcal per day. - I see. How many calories...
- did you consume before then? - Before then...
I assume that I consumed at least 3,000kcal per day.
I used to eat what I was craving for every meal.
- You ate that much for 10 years. - That's right.
If I eat as much as I want,
I would consume over 1,000kcal.
Also, I used to enjoy eating...
beef tripe, fried chicken, and...
- If you have a drink too... - Exactly.
Why did you suddenly lose weight?
I didn't make the decision suddenly.
After I gave birth to my second child...
Since she was so young,
I thought I should stay healthy for her.
As I gained a lot of weight,
that caused several health problems.
Also, I had been working hard to realize my long-cherished desire.
I had been preparing to release a song album.
I conceived my second child when I hadn't lost...
between 7kg and 8kg.
And I gained extra 18kg or 20kg during the pregnancy.
Didn't your breasts get smaller?
(Didn't your breasts get smaller?)
Well, that's true.
It's true that happens.
- Right. - But more importantly,
mine have always looked nice.
So they still look okay.
They look just perfect now.
(Her healthy body makes her confident.)
I understand. All right.
Have your underwear sizes changed?
- Of course, they did. - I see.
I wear different sizes now,
- and I gave away my old clothes. - Is that so?
- Keep them just in case. - Right.
It's a waste.
(I'm not going back.)
After his appearance on Radio Star was decided,
all Seung Hoon could think about was Radio Star.
I had three meetings with the staff of Radio Star.
- Really? - Just like a job interview?
The third meeting was like a job interview with executives.
- I can imagine that. - So...
The job interview... I mean, I had three meetings...
- Did it not go well? - It's not like that.
I couldn't make it because of my work schedule.
Things didn't go really well, and the timing was off.
You were conscious about Radio Star when you were on "Knowing Bros".
After I had a meeting with the staff of Radio Star,
I appeared on "Knowing Bros" unintentionally.
There was something that I meant to show on Radio Star.
(I see.)
But I appeared on "Knowing Bros" first.
- I saved it for Radio Star. - You contemplated.
- The producer of Radio Star... - I see.
wouldn't get out of my head.
I couldn't forget what the producer of Radio Star said.
"You should show this on Radio Star. It will be a big hit."
I couldn't forget what he said.
- Did you keep your promise? - However, Jang Hoon said,
"Where else would you show it other than this show?"
- Did you do it? - Yes, I did.
- You meant to do it on Radio Star. - Yes.
It's okay because he still has so many other talent to show.
Before I did it, I said, "I didn't mean to do it here."
I thought of Radio Star while saying that.
You can do the same thing on two different shows.
I'm relieved.
Bobby appeared on Radio Star not long ago.
- Bobby was here. - That's right.
You think he got on the YG Entertainment blacklist after that.
Right. I see.
He said a lot of negative things about YG Entertainment.
The higher-ups said...
that he went overboard.
They thought Bobby crossed the line.
Will you behave differently from Bobby today?
I'll be completely different from him.
In fact, I've always admired YG Entertainment.
I'm grateful to the CEO.
(He made it clear that he's loyal to YG Entertainment.)
You said Yang Hyun Suk is waiting for a chance to get to Gu Ra.
- He wants to get to Gu Ra? - Well...
I didn't meet him that often.
You know the members of Winner appeared on this show, right?
However, when they were here,
Gu Ra asked all of them about Nam Tae Hyun.
I only asked two of them.
Because he mentioned the incident...
several times, Mr. Yang...
felt uncomfortable.
(Laughing)
- He felt uncomfortable? - Yes.
There aren't many people who feel comfortable around Gu Ra.
He didn't take it well.
Since he was in our group,
it doesn't bother us if we talk about him.
But that's how it is between a married couple.
- When the couple gets a divorce... - You know about marriage?
When they get a divorce, the couple is okay with the divorce,
but their kids get hurt more than the couple.
So I worry about my fans.
I'm afraid that our fans might be worried.
- When you bring him up, the fans... - That's what you meant.
I'm okay with that,
but whenever he's mentioned, our fans...
get hurt. That breaks my heart.
You got the kids involved, so I can't say anything.
(Unable to rebut)
Jun Young is a fan of Gu Ra which is quite rare.
- Yes. - The program you want to direct...
- is "On the Border". - "On the Border". I see.
(Gu Ra appears on the show.)
And Jun Young graduated from NYU.
- NY? - I see.
(Pretending to know)
- But... - "NY"?
It's not "NY". I went to NYU.
- "NYU"? - Gosh.
But you even like Gu Ra's English accent.
- Communication is all that matters. - Right.
Speaking without an accent isn't that important.
- He's a Korean. - Exactly.
Give us an example of his accent that you like.
When he speaks, he speaks with a Korean accent.
- I found that quite nice. - How long did you stay in New York?
I was there for three years.
- Did you stay in Queens? - I...
(His accent makes his heart race.)
Some of the famous guitarists are from Queens.
- "Queens". - I stayed in Manhattan.
- Manhattan? I see. - Why wasn't it four years?
I graduated from my university early.
- Really? - Yes.
- You graduated early? - Yes.
(An early graduate from NYU)
- You're a genius. - No, I wouldn't say that.
My daughter is starting at NYU this year.
Really?
- She got accepted there? - Yes.
She'll become a producer.
Your daughter?
Producer Chun Jun Young is a new addition to MBC.
The news that a producer was joining today's show...
stirred up today's guests.
Especially, Ji Min said,
"Since he directs a show about current events, he'll be scholarly."
This is what you said.
What do you think? You met him in person.
I came here after researching about him.
His face is...
- very small in person. - I see.
You're joining us today. How is it going?
(She asks a sudden question.)
- Why are you leading the show? - I mean...
(Answer our question first.)
This... This is my first time appearing on a show.
As I told you, I work for the company.
Earlier, others waved at the camera and stuff.
I've never done that kind of thing before.
I was worried if I should copy them,
but I didn't.
Anyway, I wanted to become...
- a producer. - I have a question.
Do the reporters and producers have a big gap...
- when it comes to their salaries? - Is it the same?
- No. - It's about the same.
Don't you get bonuses?
- Reporters get a fee for articles. - Right.
I have a question.
When you were offered to join today,
how did you feel then?
Were you surprised by the offer?
- Did you question if you should... - How many hosts do we have?
Does the panel of hosts continue up to here?
- Yes, it's up to there. - I was just curious.
- Listen. - Should I prepare a question next?
Curiosity of married women changes the world.
- I'm sorry. - It continues up to Seung Hoon.
- I should come up with a question. - Right.
Do you have a girlfriend by any chance?
- You're not married, right? - Pardon?
You're not married.
- No, I'm not married. - He's not married yet.
- How old are you? - I'm 31.
Don't you have fans? You're very handsome.
I bet you get letters from your fans.
He's not "very" handsome.
He's just handsome.
- "Very" might be pushing a little. - You didn't get any letters?
He's better-looking than average producers.
(The hosts on Radio Star can't be overly nice.)
Hye Young, you knew nothing about two major political parties before,
but these days...
- Why would you bring that up? - She lacks a lot of knowledge.
- Right. - Why did you...
She'd said, "What are a ruling party and opposition party"?
But these days, you only watch current event shows and the news.
- Really? - I see.
- Is that so? - Yes.
I watched every episode...
- of "Battle of Tongues". - Thank you.
You're a different person on this show.
- I host the show with older people. - Right.
When did you learn what each party meant?
When did you finally distinguish those two parties?
- I knew about those parties. - The parties always change.
I didn't know they went against each other.
(Looking innocent)
- My gosh. - I thought they got along.
- It's a good thing. Like neighbors. - That would be ideal.
- They'd be like neighbors. - I thought they were friendly.
- I thought they were a team. - Side by side.
- She should be a politician. - I agree.
When you watch "Battle of Tongues", is it fun for you now?
It's so entertaining.
- I see. - What made you...
take interest in current events?
It was because of the scandal about the abuse of authority.
(Giggling)
I'm sorry to interrupt, but have you ever...
I've never seen someone bring that up while laughing.
- "The scandal". - It's because it's embarrassing.
Have you ever been to Gwanghwamun with your mask on?
No, I didn't go to the protest.
- I started painting. - Right.
I felt lonely.
- I wanted to hear people talking. - I see.
- News is on all day. - That's the perfect solution.
- I only turned on the news. - Okay.
After constantly watching the news,
I started to understand.
(Gosh)
I found out what was going on and the number of parties we had.
- I understood how it happened. - Earlier...
Did you know who Kim Moo Sung was?
- Of course. I know him now. - She knows now.
(Pounding the table)
Do you know about the Seal Incident?
- I don't think she knows that. - No.
- She doesn't know that. - I don't know that far.
- On the general TV stations... - But I know that one.
He... What was that?
The No-look Pass Incident.
She's getting close.
It's happening slowly. Take interest in their personal lives.
When you do, later on, you can...
The ruling and opposition party switch time to time.
- The parties would switch. - Exactly.
I didn't know those either. I thought those two parties...
- stayed the same. - Then the opposition party...
- Imagine how sad they'd be. - Exactly.
I thought they took turns or something.
(If they're that sad, they can.)
She wants the politicians to get along.
- Your ideal regarding politics... - I really think...
- politics is a beautiful process. - It is a beauty.
- Politician must get along. - I always vote now.
During the past 2 or 3 years, the news had been the most interesting.
- Completely. - More interesting than the movies.
- You're discussing current events? - Yes, I am.
(Even you, Jong Shin?)
(Let's discuss politics like good friends.)
- Writer U Si Min? - Yes.
It's my dream to meet him one day.
He lives in Paju now. He publishes books now.
It'd be really funny to see Hye Young on "Battle of Tongues".
- What would be her role? - Invite her some time.
- No, I can do a good job. - Host the show with her.
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star with guests...
who go viral whenever they make a comment.
Which one of them will go viral today?
It's a battle of trending online.
Today's special, "Put Up With Your Fame" begins now.
Hye Young said that...
- she'd be searched the most online. - It's guaranteed.
- She'd be searched the most online. - "She Didn't Know Politics".
You said that you'd be searched the most.
- "Do they take turns?" - Please edit that part out.
No, that's not fair.
- No. But you know now. - Right.
But still. I was old enough back then.
I should've known about the parties.
- No, it's possible you didn't know. - It carries a great message.
No, but still. I think I'd look too ignorant.
(She doesn't censor herself.)
- She's adorable. - Yes, she is.
- I don't care about going viral. - Really?
- I just... - But why do you always go viral?
I think...
Wouldn't you be curious?
(Laughing energetically)
- People are curious about my life. - I think...
- she has irresistible charms. - You're adorable.
- No. - She has irresistible charms.
- They're curious. - She hasn't changed.
- You're irresistible. - She's the same.
- How would I turn out then? - What?
How would I have changed then?
I thought you might have calmed down or something.
I can be calm too.
(Sounding calm)
Back in the days, you were quite daring.
I'm not daring anymore...
- because I know two major parties. - Yes?
- You know about the world. - Yes.
Ruling and opposition parties.
- Gosh. - You went to your daughter's...
- graduation recently. - I did.
The photo you uploaded on social media went viral.
Does your daughter know about it?
I doubt it.
Does she know that you're famous?
At first, she didn't know.
She didn't watch Korean shows. She doesn't watch TV in general.
She liked it when people recognized me.
I took my daughter to a YG concert.
At that concert, she started to find guys interesting.
- Who was the guy? - It was T.O.P.
- So... - I see.
- She was interested in T.O.P. - Like this?
- "T.O.P"? - Yes.
(She added the gesture.)
Is this Dabo Pagoda or what?
- She gets right to the point. - Her gesture was awesome.
- His name does sound like a pagoda. - That's true.
After that concert...
- She couldn't speak Korean well. - I see.
She wrote down the lyrics for his rap from start to finish in Korean.
She memorized the words too. She's not a good dancer,
- so I hired a dance instructor. - Really?
I sent her to the dance school on the weekends.
- You used to dance back then. - You should've taught her.
I can follow the dance routine,
- but I'm bad at free-styling. - Is that so?
I can just follow the steps.
- Why? This was great. - No, I can't.
When we went to the dance school,
my daughter couldn't dance, but I memorized the steps.
It took her 1 month to learn 8 measures.
- But now, - I see. She's not good at that.
she's the best at having fun when there's music.
- She'll have fun at college. - Yes, yes.
- I see. - Okay.
Can I ask for some tissue? It's really hot in here.
- Give her some tissue. - Sure.
Gosh, why am I so hot?
Actually, I'm the most sensitive to heat.
- He always carries that around - Isn't it hot here?
No, it's not hot.
I must have menopause.
It's because of the ruling and opposition party story. Seriously.
- That's not true. - You're great.
You weren't embarrassed by this back in the days.
- You changed in that aspect. - She knows a lot now.
- She's changed now. - But still. How could I not have...
- known about the parties? - She must get into politics.
- I agree. Yes, indeed. - Hand over "Battle of Tongues".
- Gosh. She's... - Hand it over.
- She's no easy match. - Hand it over.
- She isn't. - Don't go to the shoot on Monday.
(That's when he films the show.)
(She's joking.)
This is about Ji Min. We shouldn't say this.
We say it because you're known for your energy...
and was seen for a long time with a big build.
A lot of people were shocked.
People were shocked because they didn't expect her to lose weight.
They ask about this everywhere you go these days.
Don't you get stressed out by their questions?
- You do, don't you? - Yes, I do.
Even when people who live in the same apartment see me,
- my weight loss shocks them. - Precisely.
What's more is that they said they felt betrayed.
- Betrayed? - "How could you lose weight too?"
- Right. They'd feel like that. - This is the reaction I get.
After losing weight, I experienced such a great benefit.
Every aspect of my life has become healthy...
because I don't eat late-night snacks...
or drink alcohol. And since I need a good night's sleep,
I don't take in caffeine after 12 o'clock.
- I don't have that anymore. - You must crave alcohol sometimes.
I crave that a lot.
- That's the hardest part. - You'd be healthy, but it's no fun.
- No, in its own way... - It's fun for you?
- It's a different kind of fun. - Do you go to famous restaurants?
- No, I do. I do go to restaurants, - You do?
but before I eat,
I eat an unimaginable amount of cucumbers and vegetables.
I eat vegetables until I fill up on those.
- That doesn't sound fun at all. - I eat vegetables first.
Seung Hoon, your mother called you when you went viral.
I don't know how I should tell this story.
- 52 people have my name. - A lot of people have that name.
I daresay that among celebrities...
Many people with your name are famous.
- There's a historical figure too. - There's a teacher with my name.
- A mayor has my name too. - Right.
- I see. - A national athlete has my name.
Recently, my name went viral with a distasteful incident.
When my name was trending, she thought it was about me.
She didn't read the article thoroughly.
She texted me. She said that she was shocked.
- She was shocked. - She thought I caused trouble.
- So many people have his name. - Do you plan to change your name?
But I can't come up with my own stage name.
I'm very good at helping others come up with their names.
Make one for me then.
- Lee Hye Young. - Many people have your name too.
- There are so many people. Name me. - Her name is really common.
- I think Esther fits you. - "Esther"?
- He says whatever pops to his mind. - Lee Esther exists though.
(At least one of them will be funny.)
- Okay. - Jun Young.
You said when you were searched the most online, it meant nothing.
In the beginning, my name was ranked pretty high.
I was surprised at first since it was interesting.
- It dropped when I wasn't on TV. - Right.
After I moved to MBC, it plummeted...
just like the downturn of bitcoins.
I realized it then that the incident meant nothing.
I guess you must've had some expectations.
- What? - Who keeps a track of the decline?
Look how much he thinks about the drop.
I guess you like it. You like being talked about.
No, no. It's not that.
My acquaintances send me the screenshots.
Can I ask you a question?
I've been researching topics for "PD Note".
Are you preparing a special about YG Entertainment?
- That's a good question. - I'm really curious.
- Did Mr. Yang instruct you? - My gosh.
- No, no. - Is it coming from Mr. Yang?
- That didn't do any good for YG. - Just in case.
- I was just wondering... - You're worse than Bobby.
- Why? Why? - Seriously.
It could've been a positive special.
- I think they should cover YG. - They don't cover nice stories.
- I thought it should be a topic. - It'd be 100 percent negative.
That has never crossed my mind, but I'll look into that today.
(Thank you for your excellent idea.)
- Since he brought it up... - My gosh.
If you do, it would go viral.
- That won't be the issue then. - It's my personal comment.
I'll take full responsibility.
I'll use this clip for the opening of the program.
This will surprise Yang Hyun Suk.
(Guys...)
After you became the most searched person online,
you tried to sign up for the website...
a lot of women visit.
- No, I didn't try that. - He likes this.
- He enjoys this. He does. - Exactly.
- You wanted to see their reactions? - You were on a dating application.
As I told you earlier,
since my friends send me the screenshots.
On the screenshots, I could see comments and criticism.
I was curious.
I visited the website to read what people wrote about me.
- But I couldn't sign up, - The process is difficult.
- so I gave up. - Are you trying to...
- be famous like Kim Tae Ho? - No, no.
Do you want to move up the ladder in the TV station? What do you want?
In my opinion, the discussion of becoming a famous producer...
isn't right. I should speak with the program I make.
I believe that I'm not experienced enough to share this.
If I were to choose, I would enjoy...
making great TV programs even when I get older later on.
It sounds like an acceptance speech.
- What he said was true though. - "Why did you join MBC?"
"To become a famous producer." That doesn't sound right.
But these days, I mean... Okay.
Our producer raised the sketchbook.
"Is he trying to elicit attention?"
Do you think you seek attention or not?
I think... I think I do seek attention a bit.
- He admitted. He did. - Right.
(He admits to eliciting attention.)
After your name became the most searched keyword,
did your ex-girlfriend in the US get in touch with you?
Really?
But when she did, it wasn't because she still had feelings for me.
When people date and get married...
although I never got married...
- Lingering feelings? - Yes, it's similar to that.
There are many reasons that lead up to divorce.
- Why would you bring that up? - We talked about divorce a lot.
(Ignoring)
- They talked at the same time. - I'm fine with that.
- I'm okay. - Why...
You can bring that up with me 100 times.
- He brings it up like it's nothing. - Exactly.
- It's okay. There are three of us. - Of course.
- "There are three of us." - When you date other people,
- That's all right. - many things happen, but we forget.
- And that happened a long time ago. - I agree.
After hearing you talk,
I wonder if you want to rekindle your relationship...
because you were disappointed when it ended.
- I don't know that's the case. - No, because...
- I know. - In Korea,
- I can meet other women. - Exactly.
He's on the rise now.
- He doesn't cling onto the past. - You changed lane.
- You switched lanes. - Gosh.
Can't you tell? I could tell right away.
- Past stays in the past. - Things will change for him again.
- Yes, we must push forward. - You have a point.
He'll get in the elevator, heading to ambition.
- You were on a dating application. - That also went viral.
Yes, it was on social media.
- Seung Hoon knows about it. - Yes.
- Really? - "I'll post..."
- "my photo on a dating app." - I see.
I get it. That application...
You did that on the news.
- That... - To sign up,
you must take a photo of yourself...
- to get it evaluated by others. - That's right.
- Top second-percentile. - This...
- You knew this would happen, right? - You passed.
No, no. I didn't expect that at all.
You didn't know you'd rank this high?
Look at the photo. You lifted your chin like this.
- This is how you took it. - He made himself look handsome.
- He took one like this. - He tried to look attractive.
Besides, cameras love you.
- Right now... - This looks great.
- Show us the camera. - Take a look.
- He looks great. - He looks much better on screen.
- The camera loves you. - Even if it's bright here...
- We did the experiment... - He looks different.
to show that on the dating apps, I might be popular,
but reporters' status at matchmaking agencies is pretty low.
The conclusion is that the grading system is not right.
- We wanted to prove that. - That's what you wanted.
- That's why we did the experiment. - Top second-percentile.
- After that, your status went up. - "I passed."
(Mumbling)
- When he was talking, - That application...
Hye Young said, "Was he trying to elicit attention?"
(Joking)
They weren't reserved at all during the preliminary interviews.
- Hye Young claimed that she was... - My gosh.
the reason that people can discuss divorce and re-marriage on TV now.
- I don't know why it was like that. - Things were different back then.
- It was considered a big scandal. - It was like that in the past.
- Like you committed a sin. - Yes, exactly.
But nowadays, people get divorced while they're filming a drama.
And getting a divorce isn't a big scandal these days.
Back then, when people divorced, they had to leave the show business.
- Or they took long breaks. - Yes, that happened back then.
That's why I thought my career in show business was over.
That's what I thought. Back then,
Producer Lee Yoon Hee was in charge of "Six Heroines".
I called the producer even before I called my parents.
I told the producer that I was getting a divorce...
and that my divorce would influence the show.
That's why I wanted to tell him about it first.
He said that I should come back after taking a break.
I said I couldn't possibly do that.
He said that I didn't do anything wrong and told me to come back.
I said I would and I kept myself busy. After a month later,
he really called me. He told me to come back.
So my press conference...
It's not Nature Garden. What's that called these days?
- Everland. - Everland.
- I haven't heard that for a while. - "Nature Garden".
- I was filming there. - "Nature Garden".
- Shin Jung Hwan escorted me down. - Okay.
He did.
And... And...
When I noticed that I was laughing and enjoying it,
I realized I did the right thing. Thanks to the producer,
I got to continue my career in show business.
Because I paved this path,
Gu Ra can continue his career as well.
Thank you.
- It happened during the show. - Thank you.
- That's my point. - It can happen to everyone.
- Thank you. - That's life.
- You owe her one. - I did it.
- Yes, you do. - Should I visit her yearly?
Should I visit you on the day of my divorce?
No, I heard that you're dating someone.
No, it's not that.
- You're socializing? - I'm just socializing with people.
- I don't think it's socializing. - That's not it.
- I'm socializing. - If it's true, you can't say that.
- The lady might think... - Right.
- you're casual with her. - That's right.
No, here's the thing. I don't let it get serious...
with people. It's good to keep things simple.
- It's a fling. - It's causal.
- Did you two fight? - No, no. He's seeing someone.
- He's definitely dating someone. - Hye Young says he's dating.
- Then he must be dating someone. - It's between dating and a fling.
- Since we already talked about... - Okay.
my love life a lot,
the public won't be interested in it that much.
- I'm very interested in it. - Yes, I'm interested too.
- Share a bit more. - I'm so curious. Tell us more.
- Invite me to your wedding. - They are very interested.
- Let's get coffee sometimes. - I'm so curious.
Congratulations!
By the way, it's about Hye Young.
Your second marriage was bound to happen. Tell us about this.
That's not it.
I wanted to get married again.
- You must know. It's lonely. - Right.
I answered it before I realized.
- But listen. - We're happy now.
I was lonely. I was getting older.
My parents were also getting older and worried.
That's why I decided to go on a blind date.
I recommend blind dates.
- Sure. - There is a reason why I say that.
When you meet at a nightclub...
A nightclub?
- You might find later on... - What are you saying?
Why would you go to a nightclub when you are over 40 years old?
It's different from a marriage interview, right?
I went on blind dates that were like marriage interviews.
My mom asked me...
to meet a lot of men.
People say that figuring out a man requires three meetings.
Because I wanted to meet the right man,
- I met 7 men 3 times each. - 7 times 3 is 21.
I did it for each man.
- You did it for each man. - I bet a year passed by quickly.
I had multiple dates in a day.
- You were very busy. - Yes.
One date during the day and the other date in the afternoon.
- That's right. - In the afternoon.
- I met each man three times. - You wanted to figure them out.
I kept it as a rule.
All seven men liked me.
(All seven men liked me.)
Was your husband one of those men?
- He was the last one. - I see.
This is how a blind date with my husband went.
My husband didn't know that he was getting introduced to me.
My friend told me to come no matter what.
She had a hunch the two of us would get along.
I went with a friend because I didn't want to go alone.
When he walked towards me and saw me,
- his eyes went wide. - Did his eyes go wide?
He realized that I looked familiar.
His eyes went wide.
He sat in front of me, not my friend.
I see.
There was my friend as well.
I thought to myself, "He likes me!"
(Laughing)
After that...
Because my husband...
loved me so much,
he set up a date every day so that I wouldn't meet other men.
(He guarded her.)
What's the age difference?
He is a year older than me.
- That's not bad. - The thing is,
my mom asked me how my blind date was going.
Number 1 through 6...
had a son.
(The 6 men she met had a son.)
- I am serious. - They came with sons.
- They came with sons. - It was a strange coincidence.
Then I might as well be one of those men.
I come with a son.
They were similar in age.
- They were similar in age. - Yes.
I told my mom and my sister that...
all six men have sons.
Apparently, my mom and my sister went to the fortune teller.
She told them that my future husband has a child.
She told them that if I marry him,
he will love me...
and make me happy.
Since all six men had sons,
I couldn't figure out which one the fortune teller meant.
Every single one of them had a son.
- How strange! - It's strange, right?
I told my mom that...
the seventh man also has a child.
My mom went, "Really?"
I told my mom that the seventh man has a daughter.
- The 7th man does. - The 7th man has a daughter.
My mom asked, "Gosh, Hye Young. Does he like you?"
I said, "I think he likes me. Why do you ask?"
Apparently, the fortune teller said my future husband has a daughter.
(This story is really interesting.)
When we were beginning to talk about marriage, she said it.
- That gave you a push. - My mom said that...
she was afraid I wouldn't meet other people...
- if she told me that bit. - Really?
That's why she didn't tell me before.
She only told me when we were talking about marriage.
- I feel like I am watching a film. - I know.
This is so entertaining.
- I am becoming absorbed. - When I met the seventh man,
there were a few of men I hadn't met three times.
- You had to meet them three times. - That's right.
- You didn't meet them three times. - No, I didn't.
This is becoming a long film.
Those men probably didn't know what happened.
She suddenly ditched them.
The title of this movie is,
"21 Dates".
("21 Dates" starring Lee Hye Young and 7 men)
- The thing is, - 3 times 7 is 21.
I didn't even care about the 5th and 6th men...
because the seventh man liked me so much.
However, they continued to text me.
"Have you been well? Why don't we meet up sometime?"
They were nice men.
They may be nicer than my husband.
- That's right. - I wondered...
if I should meet them again,
but my husband didn't give me any free time.
He was the seventh man.
I sent the 5th and 6th men a long text.
"I am sorry. After much thought,"
"I realized that I am not ready."
- You wrapped things up. - I wrapped things up.
Does your husband know about this story?
- A little bit. - A little bit?
You know,
I thought I was good at acting cute.
This is my first time to meet Hye Young.
- No one compares to her. - She is...
- absolutely lovely. - You can't win against her.
She does this.
She never stops moving her shoulders.
- She is... - You can't win against her.
on a different level.
- That's right. - When Hye Young was...
- Her cute acts aren't calculated. - That's right.
When Hye Young was a member of Coco,
male singers went to watch her.
- That's right. - She was incredibly popular.
No one believes me when I say that.
Since I am on Radio Star for the first time,
I thought you might say that.
Look at her!
Did I do what you wanted me to do?
- When she talks... - When Hye Young was...
on "Top 10 Songs"...
in the 90s,
- male singers went to look at her. - That's right.
Coco was popular too.
When she talks,
she does this.
(She stretched out her arms.)
No one does that!
She looked like a puppy.
- I know. - Like this.
(She practices it.)
Ji Min, you know how many calories a dish has. Gimbap!
Gimbap has more calories than you would think.
It has 560kcal to...
It has about 600kcal.
It's 317kcal.
- That can't be right. - How about a burger?
A burger has 600kcal. Each burger is different,
but the fatty ones have 700 to 800kcal.
Chicken breast.
Chicken breast has about 120kcal.
- Grilled mackerel. - 120kcal.
Every fish is similar.
All of your answers are wrong!
- That's not true. - All of your answers are wrong!
That's not true. Spanish mackerel...
Mackerel has a lot of calories. It has 667kcal.
That's not true!
Why would a mackerel have 667kcal? That's absolutely ridiculous.
It must be this big.
Per 100g...
A mackerel doesn't have 667kcal.
- I eat it every day. - It changes...
- with the amount. - Is that why you gained weight?
- No way. - It changes with the amount.
How about beer?
I don't know anything about the calories alcohol has.
Soju has 90kcal.
You should never drink alcohol.
If you do, your diet is ruined for the day.
When you alcohol enters your body...
when it has been burning fat, it goes,
"It's alcohol! Let's burn alcohol!"
Your diet is ruined for the day.
That's why you shouldn't drink alcohol...
regardless of calories.
What do you crave the most?
- Alcohol. - Alcohol.
What kind of alcohol?
Soju and beer.
When I really want to drink, I sit with my husband...
and rinse my mouth with soju.
Isn't that harder?
It helps...
because there is the aftertaste of soju in my mouth.
While your husband is drinking,
- you do this. - That's right.
There is no other way.
It helps.
Ji Min, did you gain 4kg a day when you were on a diet?
- Really? - Yes.
That means you ate 4kg of food.
That day...
was the D-day.
It was the day I reached my dream weight,
so I decided to reward myself.
- You decided to eat what you want. - I decided to reward myself.
At 8am, I went to Noryangjin Fish Market...
and ate all kinds of seafood,
soju and beer, maeuntang with rice,
and sujebi.
Then I went home...
and ate all kinds of noodles.
tom yum goong noodles, jjajang noodles, and so on.
I made and ate all kinds of noodles.
I added rice and inhaled the soup.
- It was a big reward. - After that,
I took a nap.
My goodness.
I had decided to reward myself until midnight.
At 9pm, I had pork rinds and hagfish.
- You ate a lot. - I also had...
tripe and entrails.
- You had everything. - I grilled everything...
and ate it with soju and beer until midnight.
Were you with your husband?
My husband was knocked out in the evening.
I was with my sister and my brother-in-law.
They were the substitutes for my husband.
I ate until midnight...
and the reward day came to an end.
When I weighed myself,
I had gained 4kg.
(She had gained 4kg.)
It's time to see Seung Hoon's specialty.
I have been curious about it.
- Here it comes. - He is good at poems.
- 3-line poems. - 3-line or 2-line poems.
I was well-known for it. I did it at university festivals...
- and TV programs. - Really?
Are you as good as Park Myung Soo?
I can't hold a candle to him.
We should do this fast.
- Give us a poem about Gu Ra. - Gu Ra?
First line.
Gimbap without dried laver.
- Second line. - Radio Star...
- Third line. - without Gu Ra.
Radio Star without Gu Ra.
- Why don't you understand? - I understood.
(It's a good poem.)
Give us another poem. First line.
The dazzling vocalist.
- It's nice. - Second line.
The senior singer I respect.
- Third line. - Shin Seung Hun.
It was a nice one.
It was a nice one. Give us another one.
- Make one about Tae Hyun. - This is the last one.
- It was a nice one. - Make one about Tae Hyun.
First line.
What a handsome man!
- Second line. - He shines like the sun.
- Third name. - His name is Hyun Bin.
I like that one.
The composition is the same.
- That was... - First line.
Kim Suhanmu
A turtle and a crane
The 180,000-year old Dong Bang Sak
That's an old song.
(He is an old man.)
Seung Hoon, you have a specialty that involves channeling Gu Ra.
What could that be?
This is the EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
- Really? - The EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
On "Knowing Bros",
I did the EDM version of Yang Hyun Suk.
On Radio Star, I will do the EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
The EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
He uses a pen often.
Gosh, Gu Ra likes this.
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
(Here comes the good cheer.)
This is the EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
- Really? - The EDM version of Kim Gu Ra.
Gosh, Gu Ra likes this.
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
How much is your watch?
(Imitating the EDM sounds)
How much is this watch?
My goodness.
It's not just the watch.
He always asks how much something costs.
Seung Hoon, you said you are...
- the trendiest dancer in Korea. - That's right.
You also said you can compare the dances of SM Entertainment,
YG Entertainment, and JYP Entertainment.
The three companies have different styles.
I will show you. I compared the dances.
This will be really interesting.
SM Entertainment likes seductive dance moves...
that make the dancer look like he or she is fighting an alter ego.
- That's right. - That's the style.
Some kind of energy grips the dancer.
That's right.
(Seductive)
That's right.
(My alter ego has awakened.)
SM Entertainment.
Then you relax once in a while.
SM Entertainment.
The dance is strong!
- Then it's relaxed. - It's SHINee's style.
That's right.
(Winking)
Once in a while,
- you have to relax. - He is good.
- JYP Entertainment. - As for JYP Entertainment...
I can show you what Park Jin Young does.
You focus your energy on your forehead...
and make it look like you are going to yawn.
(Make it look like you are going to yawn.)
That's right. Park Jin Young does that.
(Absorb the energy with your forehead.)
Park Jin Young does that a lot.
- Focus the energy on your forehead. - How about YG Entertainment?
For YG Entertainment's dance, I will show you...
what Yang Hyun Suk did on a variety show back in the days.
"I think..."
"the chest is the most important."
(Creaking)
He did that.
Hyun Suk did that!
(He is right.)
He did that in wide-leg pants.
It's important...
to look somewhere in the distance, not the camera.
Imitate Yang Hyun Suk again.
(They ask for an encore performance.)
- "I think..." - This is hilarious.
"the chest is the most important."
(He opens his eyes wide.)
(Look into the distance and move as if your chest isn't your own.)
You should do it...
in wide-leg pants.
- That's right. - That's right.
That was incredible.
(He imitates Yang Hyun Suk until the very end.)
He is good. He is good.
- You are cool. - Seung Hoon is good.
His Yang Hyun Suk impression was hilarious.
What is Big Bang's version of "Really Really"?
"Really Really" is a hit song by Winner.
- It's a nice song. - Big Bang's version?
I will imitate Big Bang singing the song.
(Big Bang's version of "Really Really")
- You will sing. - Yes.
The original lyrics go like this.
Where are you? Are you home?
If you aren't busy, come on out
- Okay. - Now...
Give us Big Bang's version.
This is G-Dragon's version.
G-Dragon is always discontent on the stage.
He looks around angrily.
(I am angry.)
Where are you? Are you home?
If you aren't busy, come on out
Like this,
he would act like he hates his shirt.
(Screaming)
How would Dae Sung sing it?
Dae Sung has...
a certain kind of energy that radiates from his face.
He is a rock vocalist.
Gosh, where are you? Are you home?
(Screaming)
His voice is high-pitched.
Can you imitate Seung Ri?
Seung Ri...
- I think it will be easy. - Sing it like "Strong Baby".
The shirt has to be in the right place.
Where are you? Are you home?
- He is good. - He sounds exactly like Seung Ri.
He would sing like that.
How about T.O.P?
I didn't prepare T.O.P's version.
Good job. Good job.
Lastly, I will imitate the man who is working hard at the army,
Taeyang.
- Taeyang. - Taeyang.
He sings soulfully.
Where are you?
He shakes his head like this.
(Soulful)
If you aren't busy
Say yes
Can you give us Yang Hyun Suk's version?
"I think..."
"the chest is the most important."
Where are you?
(Creaking)
He is incredible.
You held yourself back on "Knowing Bros".
I didn't show this specialty on "Knowing Bros".
- I didn't show this specialty. - Good job.
Hye Young, you used to be a member of Coco.
It was the most sought-after group for a concert at an army base.
I think I have visited every army base in the nation.
I bet the soldiers went wild.
- Show us a dance. - "These Days".
- What? - "These Days".
- Why? - You have to show us the dance.
Do you really want me to dance out of the blue?
Yes.
- It should happen out of the blue. - Let's see the dance.
Should I sing as I dance?
- No. - Should I go to the front?
You can show us a condensed version here.
No. I am going to go to the front.
I knew she would say that.
I know her very well.
Lee Hye Young's...
- Am I dancing without music? - They will play music.
(My goodness.)
She is excited.
(She digs up memories from 24 years ago.)
(Hye Young was the queen of the army bases.)
(Cheerful)
(She is as cute as she was 24 years ago.)
That's right.
(It's a dance routine from the past.)
(This is fun.)
(She is old.)
That's the dance routine.
(Let's go.)
- She is... - Good job.
excessively cute.
Lee Hye Young and Yoon Hyun Sook.
(They took a trip down memory lane.)
She became cuter than she was before.
- She is good. - We got to hear the song again.
That's right.
Jun Young, do you have a specialty?
Me?
- Do you? - I do have a specialty.
Do you know Dumbo the elephant?
- Of course. - The elephant.
- I need props. - Okay.
Really?
- Do you need help? - Yes. Please put it on my ear.
I have never seen a specialty like this.
(Laughing)
All right.
(Dumbo?)
I fly like this.
(Determined)
That's...
- He is a producer! - That wasn't entertaining.
- Why did a producer do that? - To whom did you show it?
You must have shown it to someone.
- This? - He looks like a baby elephant.
I did it here.
- Was it your first time doing it? - Yes.
You should have done it someplace else.
(Discouraged)
You know,
a good friend would have stopped you.
You should have had someone check it.
I hoped someone would stop me.
Jun Young is a member of Mensa.
Your IQ is higher than 150.
- Yes. - He doesn't lack in any ways.
You took a test to join Mensa thanks to your ex-girlfriend.
Is she the one you mentioned earlier?
- No, she isn't. - She is someone else.
- You have had many girlfriends. - He is on Hye Young's level.
(He is as popular as Hye Young.)
Would it be okay to reveal it?
My girlfriend at the time and I...
took a trip to Daegu.
There's an exam every month for Mensa, rotating the regions.
I signed up for the exam in Daegu, so that I can also travel...
- and took the exam. - How much did you get?
I got 156.
I heard meeting Mensa members is almost like going into a battle.
In my opinion, most of them want to...
show off how much they know.
They are very enthusiastic about what they know.
But there are also some people fall in love in that battle.
There are a lot of people in Mensa.
So...
- They date there a lot. - They are very similar.
Sometimes they date someone else's ex in the same group.
How is dating someone really smart?
Are you asking me in case I dated someone there?
You did.
Right, I did...
You are an affectionate man!
(He snapped at the bait!)
I don't think it's that different. But like I said before,
we always want to show off what we know.
- So we argued a lot. - Oh, I see.
- That's... - My husband has...
a high IQ.
And he majored in mathematics.
But I know nothing about that, you know.
When I want to divide a number by two while I'm drawing,
Let's say it's 120.
If I divide that by 2,
- You are making it complicated. - But I...
- It's just 60. - It's simple.
But, when it comes to numbers and English, I'm just...
I can't think straight.
So I was using a calculator to divide 180 by 2.
He heard me.
He said, "Is that a joke?" So I was like, "What do you mean?"
He was a bit shocked, so I said, "I'm doing it in case I'm wrong!"
He said he couldn't understand me at all in that kind of situations.
- I was just... - We don't understand you either.
Divide 180 by 2... Hey, bring me a calculator!
Jun Young, the longest period you've been single was...
for only a month.
I'm sure he's dating someone in MBC right now too.
That's true...
- You have someone now too, right? - Looks like it.
Yes, I have a girlfriend now.
But she's not my colleague.
I did it once a long time ago.
- When you were in MBN? - Yes.
Is it okay to mention it like that?
- Well, it's... - If it's not MBC, it's MBN.
Dating a colleague wasn't that bad.
But once it was revealed, people started talking about us.
It was okay for me, but I didn't want it to affect my girlfriend.
I was worried about it.
So I'm not going to do it again.
Looks like you've always dated someone at your new work.
- You dated someone in Mensa. - That's right.
You dated someone in New York.
It's amazing that you are just never single.
- The longest period was a month. - That's really short.
I didn't intend that.
It just happened like that I moved onto someone...
You moved onto someone?
You know there are times you kind of date two people at once.
- You mean the overlapping period? - Yes.
That's like a complementary set.
That's a very Mensa-like expression.
That's about a month.
You have someone in your radar when you are ending with the other one.
Well, that make me sound like I always look for someone.
Do girls approach you first,
or do you?
I make my move first.
- I... - You never had a break.
- You just never stopped searching. - What happened in that month?
- It's because... - He must have been sick.
(Radio Star is as persistent as "PD Note".)
Idols never say anything back to the questions about their love life.
However, Lee Seung Hoon...
said it first even before anybody asked him.
Seriously...
"I've gone out with a top star."
- That's... - Are you sure you are not lying?
- I'm not. - Is she really famous now?
Yes. She always has been famous.
- Really? - Always?
So there are three stages to proceed to date a top celebrity.
(Seung Hoon has the special method to date them.)
I don't calculate...
like him.
I don't do that either.
(Laughing)
The first thing I can do is...
You know, we really have to keep a secret safe.
That's really important because of our job.
Even though I'm just talking like now because it's a funny story,
I'm trying to be careful because I don't want it to affect her.
- But we don't know who she is. - That's true.
- I'll stop talking about it now. - There aren't many all-time stars.
Well, the standard to judge a top star can be really arbitrary.
- That's true. - Of course.
She can be the top star in your mind.
Secondly, you shouldn't be impatient.
- Oh, I see. - We could have a beer at Han River.
We could also go somewhere where there are a lot of people.
But even though we can't do that, we shouldn't complain.
You have to seal your lips and shouldn't complain.
You shouldn't be obsessed with each other.
- What's the third one? - What is it?
You have to truly love each other.
(Amazed)
- How we feel matters. - He's almost like a butler.
He doesn't complain, and he puts up with the situation.
That doesn't sound like a relationship at all.
Maybe it was just me thinking that was a relationship.
Ji Min, when you were dating your husband,
you were concerned about marrying him because of how weak he was.
Maybe you are...
- too strong. - That's...
What about him?
We went to Samgakji to have...
cod soup.
He was fairly drunk.
And I wasn't then.
I don't know why,
but I had an argument with the taxi driver.
So my husband became really upset.
He and the taxi driver were about to start a huge fight.
So I tried to stop them.
So I pushed my husband to the wall.
I was like, "Don't do that!" and pushed him.
And I realized how weak he was.
Even though he was drunk, guys shouldn't get that weaker anyway.
I thought he was going to resist and keep trying to fight.
But he couldn't even get out of my arms.
At that moment, I was thinking, "This is really bad..."
"I can't believe how weak he is."
Gook Jin said,
your husband has...
the same shape and size of body that he has.
- What can you tell her? - Really?
- Isn't he bigger than Gook Jin? - He is much bigger.
What do you mean?
He is small!
- Why are you like this now? - Don't make me sound so small!
He was so small that I had to look for him like this.
Don't even say that I'm small.
He was there on the ground. So I had to pick him up.
(Calm down...)
Why don't you reenact the scene with Gook Jin?
- Push him to the wall and... - He's stronger than you think.
- Really? - He even lifted me up.
Even before Ji Min lost her weight,
- I could lift her up so easily. - He really did.
Even though he's so much weaker now these days,
I'm full of energy!
You don't know what you are talking about.
Susie likes him for his energy.
- Don't judge me... - Try it again then.
I'm Energy Kim.
- Goodness. - Calm down.
- There's a wall. - Right.
- So I tried to... - Wait...
- I pushed him like this. - I think that's better.
I was like, "Stop it!"
(The wall of the studio is just like a paper to her.)
- Ji Min, you are amazing. - So I held him like this.
- But he couldn't move at all. - Goodness.
I can't move.
- I told you. - I think...
Why don't you actually try to escape from it?
- Can you do that, Gook Jin? - This can become an accident.
- Let's stop it. - His wrists are really thin.
- They can be easily broken. - I know, right?
If one thing goes wrong, you'll break his bones.
After you lost weight,
can we expect...
your third child?
Well, after having my second child, I realized...
- I really want the third one. - That's right.
But my husband and my mother-in-law are really against that idea.
Why?
I don't really look after my kids at home.
- I see why. - Oh, so they do the job.
Your mother-in-law takes care of your kids.
I know what that is. She didn't do it either.
My husband is going through the parenting stress these days.
I got home late once,
and I found out he was having an argument with my four-year-old.
Do you have any stress coming from parenting?
- I don't. - That's why...
- your husband doesn't want more. - That's why she wants more.
"This is actually doable!"
Hye Young, when you are going out these days, your husband...
and daughter are waiting for you with only underwear on.
Oh, that's because... I love matching items.
So I prepare those items for my husband and daughter.
I love all of us wearing the matching items when we go out.
Since I always do it for them,
they now wait in their room only with their underwear.
They want you to dress them up.
Well, it doesn't matter what my husband wears,
but I want my daughter to wear something nice, you know.
So I ask her things like, "Why do you think I gave you these clothes?"
If she doesn't know, I tell her the point of her style on that day.
- Because you are the fashionista. - So I've been telling her about it.
One day, I told her to dress up herself.
She was like, "No, I can't." But I told her to do it anyway.
And I graded it like, "60"!
(Cold)
She said, "Why?" So I told her not to ask me why.
And on the other day, I gave her 90 points.
And she said, "Where did 10 points go?" So I told her to figure it out.
Finally, she got 100 from me.
- She's getting better. - Yes, she is getting better.
How would you grade yourself?
- Me? - Yes, what you are wearing now.
Well, I look good with anything.
It's so difficult for me to decide what to wear.
- Because everything suits you? - Yes.
(Her confidence is high as the clouds.)
My husband told me...
he feels sorry for me when I go clothes shopping.
Because everything suits me, but I can't buy all of them.
(This is getting worse and worse.)
They are the happiest people on earth.
(They are truly meant to be.)
Ji Min, on some other show, you said,
you found your daughter ugly after she was born.
It was different from what I expected.
You know, I could have a certain amount of expectation.
Well, you do have a pretty face.
She's a really cute and attractive little girl now.
- But you love her anyway. - But...
I don't think she's that pretty.
- She's so cute and charming. - She's adorable.
My daughter Do Ro Si is really...
- She's great with people. - We used to...
Dorothy?
- Do Ro Si. - Her husband's name is Do Sung Soo.
I thought it was an English name Dorothy.
Her first name is Ro Si, and her family name is Do.
- I conceived Ro Si... - Oh, Do Ro Si.
when I played in "42nd Street"...
that I am preparing to play in right now.
And my role in that musical was Dorothy.
- I see. - Dorothy.
- So I named the fetus Dorothy. - I see.
And I found Chinese characters that sound "Ro" and "Si"...
- and mean "driven" and "generous". - I didn't know that.
That's how I named her Do Ro Si.
- There's a story behind her name. - I see.
- What's your other daughter's name? - Ro Sa.
- Do Ro Ra. - Do Ro Ra?
- Ro Ra? - Yes.
"Ro" means "driven", and "Ra" means "fruit".
What's with the word "driven"?
- And... - It sounds energetic though.
- She's strong. - Right.
It sounds similar to Laura, which means "mystery" and "victory".
That's how...
Seol Chong came up with his method of writing.
Come again?
This is what Mensa members do, right?
- Mensa members do that. - He always show off his knowledge.
This is what he was talking about.
They bring up things that no one wants to know.
- Out of the blue. - Seol Chong's method...
was to write the reading sounds of Chinese characters in Korean.
That's Seol Chong's method.
How about Seung Ji?
- Seung Ji? - As in the chief royal secretary?
Your child could become an official.
He always makes silly puns.
I'm sick of his puns.
- How about Reu Rae as in pulley? - Do Reu Rae? Good.
- That's enough. - You see...
(There are a lot of names to go with the family name Do.)
When Jun Young was asked...
about the hardest part of producing "PD Note",
he said it's dealing with his senior producers, not covering stories.
(He told his honest feelings without hesitating.)
Will you be okay after this?
- Dealing with his senior... - I think...
he's an unpredictable type.
He's quite impulsive.
- Why is it so hard? - Of course, it's hard.
There's a leading producer in each team.
I can't go home until the team leader leaves for the day...
as I'm a member of this organization.
- Your supervisor is a workaholic. - Yes.
I kept looking at him, but he wouldn't leave.
I heard it's different now,
and people leave for the day when it's time.
His senior producers must be very enthusiastic.
- It depends on the individual. - I see.
A producer at MBC I know...
saw his junior producers and the writer working so hard.
So he pretended to go to the bathroom,
but he went home in slippers.
(That sounds natural.)
Since they were working so hard...
- He was in the highest position. - He didn't want to ruin the mood.
He was a general manager back then.
He's no longer working here though.
(He's not working at MBC anymore.)
Jun Young, when you became a producer,
you aimed to join MBC, and no other networks.
- Yes. - Was your ex-girlfriend...
working at KBS or SBS?
(He always ends up talking about dating.)
I've always been fond of MBC...
since I was a child, and I mean it.
- In case of KBS, - KBS.
the station has an old-fashioned vibe, right?
You could feel that way.
It's just my personal preference.
How about SBS?
SBS...
My younger sister is working there.
- At SBS? - Your sister?
- She's a weather forecaster. - Really?
- Oh, your sister is? - Yes.
- She must be pretty. - My sister works there.
Did you not want to work at the same company as her?
It's not that I didn't want to work at the same company as her...
Were you afraid you might not be able to date anyone because of her?
No.
- She could find out everything. - He should walk on eggshells.
Because of me, my sister...
She might not be able to date anyone?
Hye Young has been active as a painter.
She's so cool.
In the early years of my marriage,
I didn't know how to raise a teenage daughter...
because I had no experience.
I needed something to focus on,
and my dad was fighting cancer.
So I needed something that would help me keep it together.
I didn't have any work.
It was my first time for staying at home with no job.
I thought of starting painting, which I had wanted to do.
I went to an art supply store to buy what I needed for oil painting.
I bought basic tools and a set of 24-color oil paints.
I bought oil too.
I learned to draw from the internet at home.
- You taught yourself? - Yes, I taught myself.
At first, my drawings looked like a child's drawing.
But I have completed 300 pieces of paintings so far.
- So... - Did you sell some of them?
Yes, but I try not to.
- Really? - Yes.
- I'm not emotionally ready yet. - She's good.
- Like this one. - That was put on my exhibition.
She held her first exhibition in New York.
- I held exhibitions in New York... - These are her paintings.
- These are great. - It was a great place.
- Her paintings are quite large. - Yes, I painted large ones.
I heard that caused paralysis.
I was paralyzed on the right side of my body.
I painted between 10 and 20 hours a day.
- That's why you were paralyzed. - Yes. So I was paralyzed.
I collapsed on the opening day of my exhibition.
- I couldn't even go there. - She's very passionate.
Now...
You collapsed after finishing your work?
I actually collapsed.
Would you be interested in making a movie of your story?
- She looks different now. - Exactly.
- She looks like a different person. - She's not the person we know.
She's being an artist right now.
- Her paintings are amazing. - Please go on.
Not many people knew I'm a painter,
but now, more people know that.
So I'm thinking of holding an exhibition this year.
- An exhibition? - Yes.
- Make sure to do so. - Okay.
- It's amazing she taught herself. - I think...
- it was possible... - I just loved to paint.
- because she had a talent. - Right.
- That's why she dresses well. - Exactly.
(This is the irresistible charm of Hye Young.)
It looks like she knows a lot of famous people.
After the interview with our writer,
she said, "I'm going to meet Lee Jung Jae."
She bragged about it to the writer.
- The writer didn't even ask. - Right.
- "I'll meet Lee Jung Jae now." - It wasn't like that.
- "I'm going to meet Lee Jung Jae." - It wasn't like that.
I didn't really want to appear on TV shows.
In fact, I got the first call from Radio Star.
The writer kept asking me...
which celebrity I wanted to appear on the show with.
Most of the celebrities I'm close to are in foreign countries,
or they're A-listers...
who would never appear on a talk show.
They don't want to open up about themselves on a TV show.
Who else? Shin Jung Hwan wouldn't come on the show.
- Shin Jung Hwan? - Jung Hwan...
can't be here even if he wants to.
- He really wants to come here. - He can't.
- I wish he had come back to Korea. - Radio Star...
Did you meet Jung Jae?
Of course, I did.
He and I are vague friends.
- "Vague friends"? - You mean, "close friends".
- Yes, we're close friends. - You should correct it right away.
Today's show is quite vague.
Vague friends can't see each other often.
You should say "close friends".
- "Vague friends". - That's what makes her charming.
- She's charming, indeed. - She was so serious about painting,
but then she said, "He and I are vague friends."
(She has limitless charms.)
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
Today's theme is for those who draws attention whenever they talk.
"The Song to Get Ranked First on the Internet Hit List".
All right. Shall we hear the song that Hye Young chose?
This is a great song. "The Secret Garden" by Lee Sang Eun.
Her musical preference has changed as well.
- Did you get better at singing? - The reason I chose this song?
- Yes. - No. I got worse at singing.
I chose this song because this is the song...
- I sang to my husband. - Really?
I sang this song only once.
Even if I make a mistake,
- I hope you focus on the lyrics. - Right.
I think it's a song that Gu Ra...
will sing for someone or hear someone sing for him soon.
- That's nice. - That's why I chose this song.
My goodness.
- "The Secret Garden". - How nice.
I am very happy.
- Let's hear... - My neighbors always look at me.
(They're all curious about Gu Ra's love life.)
Let's hear her singing "The Secret Garden".
("The Secret Garden" sung by Lee Hye Young)
(She dances lightly to the lovely intro.)
(Young people these days don't know who I am, right?)
(I'm Lee Hye Young of Coco. I used to be a top star.)
(Innocent)
(Ruling party? Opposition party? Vague? Close?)
(Goodbye, the moments of her innocence.)
(You're doing well.)
(Gu Ra, try to listen to the lyrics.)
(I can't.)
(He's dancing according to the lyrics.)
(Moving his shoulders)
(I feel like I was reborn...)
(when I started painting.)
(Please call me Artist Lee.)
(She makes him want to turn around to see her.)
She sang the song in Coco's style.
- Did I? - Right.
- Right. Her songs were like that. - Yes. It sounded like her song.
- I think she has become an artist. - Do you think so?
Now, shall we hear the song that Seung Hoon chose?
(He's full of enthusiasm.)
- All right. - Why did you choose this song?
Some of the members of Big Bang are not active right now,
so I wanted to fill their absence and cheer up everyone.
- That's great. - That's why I chose this song.
Shall we hear Seung Hoon sing "Bang Bang Bang"?
You will sing twice faster than the original song, right?
He'll sing faster than the original song?
I wanted to make it more fun.
- That's wonderful. - Really?
He's cool.
- He's cool. - Are you ready?
(The enthusiastic fans are ready.)
Hands up, hands up
(Put your hands up, everyone!)
("Bang Bang Bang" sung by Lee Seung Hoon)
(It's twice faster and twice more exciting.)
(I love Winner.)
(I've been awakened)
That's amazing.
(His five trillion souls wake up as the song begins.)
(Which side of me shall I show you this time?)
(He's already showed every talent he has like a guerrilla concert.)
(Worship Lee Seung Hoon.)
(Hang on. This must be...)
(He dazzles everyone with his Dabo Pogoda rap.)
(I don't care what they think, I'm shameless)
(I penetrate into your body like an allergic disease)
(I'm the outlaw of the day)
(As if he's caught in a spider's web,)
(his dance looks desperate.)
(Big Bang members, please don't worry.)
(I'll fill your absence.)
(As if I got shot)
That's good.
(He's transformed into G-Dragon.)
(I don't like this shirt.)
(He performed twice more passionately.)
- He's an idol star for a reason. - It ended quickly.
It ended quickly because he sang twice faster.
I hope all of our future guests will sing faster than the original song.
Today's theme was "Put Up With Your Fame".
Here's the last question. What does the internet hit list mean to you?
Well... Sometimes, I'm very grateful for it,
but sometimes,
it can be a burden, I think.
However, today, I want to be ranked top on the list...
for a good reason.
Ji Min.
I'm preparing the musical,
"42nd Street".
I hope the musical will be ranked top on the list.
Whenever I was on the list, it was because...
I had a baby or because I lost weight.
I hope I'll be on the list because of my accomplishment as an actress.
Also, my first project for self-realization.
I hope I'll be on the list because of my song album.
Thank you.
- Great. - She's doing a lot of things.
Seung Hoon.
The internet hit list always makes me wonder why.
There are so many people with the same name as mine.
I can't be sure if I'm on the list...
for a good reason or a bad reason.
I always click it although I'm worried.
So I hope those who have the same name as mine...
will be ranked top on the list because of good things.
- That's a good comment. - Great.
- It warms my heart. - It's beautiful.
All right. Jun Young.
To me, the internet hit list is like Bitcoin.
It fluctuates a lot.
That's all.
(The Mensa member's logic is unsatisfactory somehow.)
The fame can be a heavy burden to Radio Star as well.
It's so heavy.
It's very heavy.
However, although it's heavy,
we'll carry the burden happily.
Please search our show on the internet today too.
We will say goodbye here. See you next week.
- Please. - Please.
(Next week!)
They have to block it.
(Jo Hyeon Woo's incredible super save at World Cup games)
He kicked the ball low.
(Kim Young Gwon scored the first goal at the match against Germany.)
(Lee Yong, the decisive defender)
(And Lee Seung Woo, the cute and the youngest)
(The national soccer team players will be on Radio Star!)
