(Guys, let's say hello.)
(Hello.)
(From any angle, )
(Bona looks pretty!)
(Stay tuned.)
It's always better when we're together,
- Happy Together! - Happy Together!
- Hello. - It's good to see you.
It's good to see you all.
- The hot weather ended. - It's autumn.
The heat is gone. Autumn has come.
A cool breeze blows in the morning and evening.
- That's right. - Yes. Autumn is coming.
Time does fly.
It feels like yesterday when we heard Jae Seok...
- will have another baby. - Right.
But the baby is coming next month.
- That's right. - Congratulations.
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
I wish for a safe delivery.
- May I ask a question? - You may not.
What aspect do you want your baby to get from you?
I don't know. I haven't thought about it yet.
But there are many things I hope my baby won't...
get from me.
For example, my mouth.
- Your jawline too. - Yes. My jawline.
Things like that.
I've thought about things like this,
but I can't think of what I want to pass on.
Do you guys have any superior genes that...
you want to boast about?
Myung Soo, what about you?
- Me? - Yes.
- Is there anything? - Patience.
- I'm being very patient. - I got...
- I got so surprised. - I'm serious.
- You're not patient. - "Patience"?
- You're impatient. - Seeing that I...
sit here to the end, I think I'm very patient.
- What about you? - Hyun Moo?
I can tease others without offending them.
I want to pass it on to my child.
You're wrong. I think you'll be beaten up soon.
- I can sense it. - You can?
I can see they're upset. Then I shut my mouth.
- I know when to stop. - You're quick-witted.
- I'm quick-witted. - Has anyone scared you?
I'm sorry about the expression.
- I got scared many times. - He gets scared easily.
- Is that so? - It happened a lot.
When he's scared, his eyes open bigger than usual.
And my moustache grows a little bit.
- It grows suddenly? - That's right.
Today's guests...
have superior genes.
It's "Stars with Superior Genes Special".
- Let's bring them out. - All right.
- Please come out. - Welcome. Come on!
(Open the door.)
- Oh, my. Im Chang Jung. - And Seo Yoo Jung.
- Park Eun Hye. - Hello.
- Bona and Lucas. - Hello.
I love his songs.
- You're the last - Hello.
He's a great singer and actor.
He's incredibly versatile.
The amazing singer and actor, Im Chang Jung!
Hello.
She was the cute and bubbly mambo girl.
She's back as the activist from "Mr. Sunshine".
- Seo Yoo Jung! - Hello.
(Seo Yoo Jung with an extraordinary vibe)
She's still as lovely and cheery as she used to be.
Her pretty face seems to never age.
The lovely Park Eun Hye!
Park Eun Hye!
This idol singer made her debut as an actress.
Once you see her,
you fall in love with this charming fairy.
Bona of WJSN!
Bona!
- What was that? - Be careful.
- "Charming fatty"? - It's "fairy".
- Gosh. Seriously. - That wasn't good.
- My goodness. - She's a charming fairy.
"A charming fairy".
He looks like a character in a comic book.
He's also peculiar, innocent, and funny.
He's a valuable asset of variety shows now.
- Lucas of NCT! - Lucas!
(He really is very handsome.)
- He's handsome. - Indeed.
- He's handsome, right? - Yes.
- He's so handsome. - He also has big hands.
Look at his hands.
- His hands are so big. - My goodness.
Hyun Kyung, compare your hand to his.
He has such big hands.
(Let's compare his hand to Hyun Kyung's.)
(His hand is much larger than hers.)
- Look at his hands. - His fingers are so long.
- I envy you. - They're the biggest...
finger guns I've seen lately.
- He has big hands, so... - No wonder...
his fingers looked so long.
- He's also very handsome. - I'm jealous.
His hands look like Demetan's front feet.
That's right.
- The animation character. - That's an old animation.
That's right.
I haven't heard of it for a long time.
- You know the character. - You're from Hong Kong.
Did you know Chang Jung by any chance?
Yes, I did. I know...
the bar.
I know the bar.
(His 30 years of career feels meaningless.)
There's a bar that Chang Jung runs.
That's right. There is.
It's located near your practice studio.
My goodness.
- He's hilarious. - Oh, right.
It's located in Cheongdam-dong.
We all know his bar.
Most people talk about his 3rd or 4th albums,
but Lucas thought of his bar.
You should thank him.
He runs the bar after all.
Some people think I'm a baseball player.
That's right.
Because of "Invincible Baseball Team".
Young people think I'm a baseball player.
They grew up watching it.
Have you ever heard my song?
Yes. Well... I've heard a bit.
The fact that I met you
- Have you heard of it? - He hasn't.
(I haven't.)
- He hasn't. - Chang Jung...
(He shouldn't have sung the song.)
Even if Chang Jung sings his songs,
Lucas is more familiar with his bar.
(He sings his song that was released in 2016.)
- Yes. I know that song. - This is...
- my song. - I see.
- Okay? - Since I sit here,
I feel like I'm their guardian.
(I feel like I'm their guardian.)
Don't be ridiculous.
- You don't look that old. - Their guardian came...
in a hurry while getting dressed.
To me, she looks like...
- an agency executive. - She looks gorgeous.
The executive who dresses like a celebrity.
(Executive Seo Yoo Jung)
"These are the artists under my agency."
The celebrities dressed simply,
- but she... - Say hello. 1, 2, 3.
- Hello. - Hello.
(We're WJSN-NCT. It's nice to meet you.)
Just as I said earlier, today's theme...
is "Stars with Superior Genes Special".
Chang Jung is like the first...
- all-round entertainer. - That's right.
- He created the concept. - He practically did it.
Next year, he'll celebrate his 30th anniversary.
- It's been 30 years? - Is that so?
Oh, my. It's been so long.
(Let us tell you something about Chang Jung.)
(He sings well.)
(He's a good actor.)
(He even took over variety shows.)
(He's still loved by so many people.)
(Congratulations in advance...)
(on your 30th anniversary.)
Oh, my. It's been so long.
He said he had filmed a drama in this studio.
Back then,
this studio wasn't used for a variety show.
- That's right. - I filmed a daily drama.
- Right. - That's right.
I filmed the drama 29 years from now.
29 years.
(The 20-year-old Lucas is surprised.)
It's been 29 years.
- They hadn't been born. - I filmed the drama here.
- He doesn't hide his age. - That's good.
- Chang Jung hasn't... - That was funny.
come on Happy Together for a long time.
- We wore spa robes. - That's right.
- I haven't been here... - It's been a long time.
- since the show changed. - That's right.
I heard you live in Jeju Island now.
- Yes, I do. - Did you come today?
- I came yesterday. - I see.
Is that your house in Jeju Island?
- It's pretty. - It's pretty.
- It looks nice. - Did you build the house?
No. I bought one of the houses...
that were built there.
- There's a swimming pool. - He has a swimming pool.
- That's for common use. - I see.
It's for 12 houses to share it,
and it's in my front yard.
- I know that place. - It's pretty.
- It's a fancy house. - No. It's cheap.
- Really? - It's very cheap.
(It's very cheap.)
"It's very cheap."
He said it in English in Korean accent.
You've improved your English.
I thought it was a new potato chip.
Me too.
Like "Very Chip".
- You live in Jeju Island. - Yes.
- I didn't know that. - It's been over a year.
- Really? - I took my entire family.
When I record my songs...
or appear on TV shows, I do it all at once.
- All at once? - I finish everything,
so I can go home in the evening.
It may sound inconvenient,
- but it's actually not. - Really?
When you think about it, he's going home...
- which is in Jeju Island. - Do you fly there?
I feel happier than before.
- It doesn't take so long. - Exactly.
There are many celebrities who live in Jeju Island.
- That's right. - Lee Jeong lives there.
- Lee Je Hoon of Cool. - Tak Jae Hoon too.
A lot of stars live in Jeju Island.
But most people know only Lee Hyo Lee lives there.
(People only know about Lee Hyo Lee living there.)
My kids also want to see Hyo Lee...
- as she lives there. - Have you not seen her?
They complained why they couldn't see her.
You could've run into her in Jeju Island.
Exactly. Since she went around the island,
I could've run into her somewhere.
- But I haven't seen her. - Not once?
I didn't know you lived in Jeju Island.
- I had no idea. - Is it disappointing?
When people see me...
I've lived in the island for over a year,
but they say, "Oh, my. Are you travelling?"
I say, "I live here."
(I live here too.)
I heard that...
since you spend more time with your children now,
they're very happy about it.
I have a lot of work to do when I'm in Seoul.
But I have nothing to do in Jeju Island.
So I can spend all my time on having fun.
(I can have fun alone.)
(I have a gig tomorrow.)
(I'm in trouble.)
My kids started to learn to play golf recently.
They're in 6th, 4th, and 2nd grades.
The two older sons started playing golf.
- It's been 8 or 9 months. - It's been a while.
Since I love playing golf, I go with them,
and we practice together.
Don't your children worry because you just play...
all the time instead of working?
Don't they ask you about the financial status?
Aren't they worried?
Why would his children ask about it?
I was worried.
My children feel very proud...
because their friends know my name.
- That's nice. - I think they do,
but when they're asked...
if it's nice to have a celebrity dad,
they say no.
- They put on an act. - They actually like it.
I'm sure they brag about you to their friends.
Yoo Jung got married last year.
- Congratulations. - Thank you.
The last time she was here,
she said she and Hyun Moo had something going on.
- She talked about a trip. - That's right.
- Didn't she? - You talked about a trip.
- The resort. - Hyun Moo asked her to...
- go on a trip with him. - Right.
(The Man I Almost Dated)
He said he'd go on a trip a few days later.
He asked me to join him.
(He asked her to go on a trip with him.)
However...
(Shaking)
(Is it wrong to go on a trip with friends?)
(He showed his sincerity while sweating a lot.)
(So she lost touch with him.)
Where did he ask you to go to with him?
(The end of "The Man I Almost Dated")
- "Let's go on a trip." - I heard...
Hyun Moo hosted her wedding.
Hyun Moo was in the past...
- at the time, right? - That's how I looked.
He's like an American celebrity.
- He's so cool about it. - It's not like that.
- "American celebrity"? - You asked her out.
I asked her to join a group trip,
and she made the story more interesting.
We're actually close same age friends.
That's why I hosted her wedding.
I thought it'd be nice if my friend did it.
I asked him, and he accepted it right away.
I thought I should host her wedding,
so I can shrug off my image as a flirt.
I got this image because of Happy Together.
I heard that it was hard to host...
- her wedding. - It wasn't difficult.
- It was unusual. - Why?
The bride and groom are usually shy.
So their friends have to lighten the atmosphere.
But Yoo Jung was so excited.
I still remember her face that looked...
so happy and excited.
- She danced too. - I heard...
the staff at the venue were surprised too.
It's because she has a lot of cheerful energy.
It's because...
It was hard to prepare the ceremony...
because there were a lot of things to hide.
- There were surprises. - There were a lot of it.
I wanted to prepare something special for him.
My husband likes Kim Dong Ryul's songs.
But I couldn't hire him for my wedding.
- He's hard to see lately. - Exactly.
However, I saw Muzie on a TV show.
- He imitated Dong Ryul. - Right. He's good at it.
After I got a call from you
(He sounds just like Dong Ryul.)
It's as if he draws water from a deep well.
(You won't tell them apart with your eyes closed.)
Since I know Muzie personally,
I arranged the event secretly.
Only the staff at the venue and I knew.
Everyone else didn't know that.
When Muzie started singing,
people couldn't see his face.
They could only hear his voice.
They thought he was Dong Ryul.
- He hid his face. - Yes.
And then the door opened,
and Muzie lowered his head wearing sunglasses.
People were whispering, "That's Kim Dong Ryul."
- "Kim Dong Ryul is here." - Yes.
But as he walked toward the stage,
he took off his sunglasses to reveal himself.
And it was quite fun.
You planned all the events like this...
and executed your plans all by yourself.
Yes. It took me two months to prepare it.
- Two months? - That's how she is.
- I see. - She remembers it wrong.
The guests didn't whisper, "That's Kim Dong Ryul."
- What did they say? - "What? That's Muzie."
(What? That's Muzie.)
- She was mistaken. - Well...
- It seems to me... - Really?
she remembers it the way she wanted it to be.
- Did he... - It was too bright.
Did he at least imitate Dong Ryul well?
Of course he did.
Cho Yong Pil performed too.
- Cho Young Pil? - Cho Yong Pil.
- Who was it? - Muzie imitated him.
I see.
(Muzie did everything.)
- Muzie did everything. - He imitated Yong Pil.
- He imitated him too. - Chang Jung came...
all the way from Jeju Island. Yoo Jung was...
very excited when she heard he'd be here.
I was excited about her coming on the show too.
I know Chang Jung personally.
We both played in "Fortune Salon".
The reason why I like him...
Actors usually get to emotions before shooting,
- but Chang Jung... - He does it instantly?
jokes around. But as soon as the camera rolls,
he immerses himself into emotions right away.
I think that's amazing.
I've always wanted to perform with...
three actors some time.
- Who are they? - Chang Jung,
Hwang Jung Min, and Lee Byung Hun.
I wanted to work with these three actors.
And I've worked with Chang Jung.
When I heard he'd be here, I was very excited.
You also performed with Byung Hun.
- In "Mr. Sunshine". - That's right.
What about Jung Min?
I've never worked with him before.
I've never met him either. I'd like to meet him.
You said you wanted to...
- work with Byung Hun. - Yes.
- How was it? - You worked with him.
I was very surprised.
Normally, it's hard for actors...
to look the other actors in the eyes,
so we look away while saying our lines.
But if you see Hollywood actors,
they look at each other in the eyes.
However, Byung Hun...
Perhaps it's because he's in a lot of...
Hollywood films.
He doesn't get distracted.
He looks straight at you...
with his deep eyes...
when he says the lines.
He's such a great actor.
(He's a great actor.)
Was it a lot different from my acting?
It must be different.
You said a while ago that I am good too.
- No, it's... - Is he different?
He's got a different feel from Byung Hun.
I am just funny.
No. You are both great actors.
(Their specialties differ, but they are both great.)
I am sorry, but then are we at the same level?
You're at a higher level.
She wouldn't say who "you" is.
- She said it ambiguously. - You are quite annoying.
Being on a variety show changed her.
You changed. You weren't like that before.
You are annoying now.
What happened to Joey Wong of Incheon?
She wasn't like that before.
She's been on too many variety shows.
Actually,
I saw her again today after a long time,
- and I'm surprised. - Right?
She's not Eun Hye we used to know.
She's changed.
You're on the show with Kim Tae Ri.
How is Tae Ri?
(How is Tae Ri up close?)
You must think of her as being calm...
and quiet.
But in reality, she's fun.
- Is she fun? - Yes. She's bubbly.
She mingles well with the crew and other actors.
She's really lovely and cute.
(She's a cute lady.)
She comes to me first...
and starts a conversation.
Can you feel how popular your drama is?
How is it?
I can really tell how popular it is.
Foreigners...
Before this, only Koreans used to recognize me.
Foreigners didn't know me.
But because this drama is so popular,
Japanese and Chinese fans...
recognize me well.
What do they say?
They don't say anything.
But looking at their faces, I can tell...
- that they know me. - You look at their faces.
You can tell by reading their faces.
Eun Hye was really popular for her role in...
"Steel Rain". How was that?
Put him down. Hurry!
(Her character established the story.)
I knew the movie was going to be a hit.
I had no doubt about it.
I had to think hard about my character.
There were only three female characters.
So I was afraid we would get overpowered by men.
But the film was edited very nicely.
- Your acting was good. - If you are good,
they don't edit you out.
So it means she acted well.
- I see. - They don't waste them.
That's why all my parts...
got edited out when I starred in "Zzang".
I haven't heard that name in such a long time.
It's been so long.
I was the lead actress. But I got edited out.
I was in only 1 or 2 scenes.
I ended up not being the lead actress.
(She ended up looking like a supporting actress.)
You acted with Jung Woo Sung.
- Yes. - How was that?
(Laughing)
He was so handsome.
It was my first time not being able to...
look at my acting partner in the eyes.
- I was... - Why not?
acting while looking at him in the eyes.
But I couldn't remember the lines.
He was too handsome. I was shocked.
I never experienced something like that.
Why are you looking straight into my eyes?
I was really shocked.
Her gaze even went through me.
Do you remember the lines well when you see me?
I remember them very well.
Eun Hye,
I heard you're into your children's education.
My boys just entered elementary school.
- They are twins. - Right.
The government kept saying small children...
shouldn't study school lessons in advance.
So I only enrolled them in playing classes.
When they entered school,
they couldn't do the calculation, 2 plus 3.
- Who? - My twins.
- Really? - Yes.
How can they not know what 2 plus 3 is?
I was so upset that...
I sat them down and started teaching them.
I had to teach them.
"You have two candies."
"And someone gives you three more candies."
"How many candies would you have then?"
"Who gave me candies?"
(That's what her sons said.)
That's very creative.
- They are very creative. - They are creative.
- That's advanced. - Yes.
They are more curious about who gave it to them.
That shows that they are going to be successful.
You say that because they are not yours.
If you think they are yours,
- it will be different. - Hey.
- Hey. - Yes.
After one semester, they brought their textbooks.
There was a question like this.
"You received an award."
"When your friend congratulates you,"
"what would you say to him?"
You should be saying "Thank you."
In the blank, my boy wrote this.
"Don't mention it."
- He's creative. - He really is.
- He's creative. - That's another level.
Isn't he a genius?
- I know. - He's Edison.
- He's a genius. - Isn't he a genius?
Right.
- Yes. - I think it's wrong...
to tell them what the right answer is.
We should let them give different answers.
And the parents should know why they said that...
- Right. - and talk about it.
I think perhaps I should've done that...
when they were 6 or 7.
When they were seven.
Actually,
I used to not understand this.
The elders use to say...
that you can never control your children,
and that you should let them do what they like.
Until recently,
I couldn't understand it.
Why can't you control your children?
I thought as long as you support...
your children to live happily,
you will live happily with your children.
- But? - I won't say any more.
But what makes them happy is...
very different from what we think...
would make them happy.
It's different.
He's a rookie who debuted seven months ago.
He is Lucas of NCT.
When you got invited to come on this show,
how did you react?
- You were blown away. - Were you surprised?
- Were you fascinated? - Yes.
My Korean is still not very good.
So I am really amazed that I was invited here.
I heard Lucas said this.
He said he would've made us laugh to death...
only if he could speak better Korean.
- Really? - Did you really say that?
- Yes. - What did you say?
If I spoke Korean as well as you,
- If you're good... - I would've...
made everyone in Korea laugh to death.
(He warns everyone.)
- He'd make us die. - I really would.
- He's like Joon Park. - Right.
You mean you can make us laugh our head off Right?
That's what you mean, right?
Joon was the same as him.
His Korean wasn't good, but after 2 to 3 years,
- it improved so much. - Very much.
I can understand 70 to 80 percent of what you say.
You are the first member of NCT...
to come on our show.
- Yes. - What did others say?
They said this.
They said, "You did it."
- "You did it." - "You did it."
"You're successful now."
(He's cute.)
He's cute.
When did you come to Korea?
I came to Korea in 2016.
- It hasn't been long. - Just two years ago.
- Two years ago. - I am from Hong Kong.
Right.
My mom is Thai.
That's why...
- He looks like... - He looks so much...
- like Nichkhun. - And also Go Soo.
Among all the guests,
he's the prettiest.
There's Bona too.
Where does that leave her?
- I... - What are you doing?
Don't people tell you that you resemble someone?
- Yes. - Who do they mention?
- Takeshi Kaneshiro. - Takeshi Kaneshiro.
He's got his features.
There's Takeshi Kaneshiro. There's Min Ho of SHINee.
There's Im Chang Jung too.
- My gosh. - There's Go Soo.
What's wrong?
He does resemble Takeshi Kaneshiro.
- He does resemble him. - He's handsome.
You speak English. Chinese.
- Thai. - Yes.
I speak little bit of everything.
- Amazing. - That's amazing.
You must speak Cantonese.
Cantonese is my mother tongue.
- You speak Mandarin too. - I do.
(What?)
- Ni hao. - Ni hao.
Stop it, Eun Hye.
He's too handsome. I can only see him.
- Come on. - I can't help it.
Why do you keep asking...
questions to only Lucas?
- My goodness. - Stop it.
She hasn't been out in a long time.
- Right. - I can only see him.
She's only asking questions to Lucas.
- I am sorry, but... - I have many questions.
- Eun Hye. - I feel...
Please tell us the news about North Korea.
- Chang Jung is offended. - I think the viewers...
would be curious about what I am curious about.
(She was just representing the viewers.)
Will you stop it now?
Are all your families in Hong Kong?
- Eun Hye is... - What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Eun Hye, tell us about North Korea.
What is going on at the Gaema Plateau?
Today is "Stars with Superior Genes Special".
When we told Lucas that,
he strongly agreed that he fits into it.
- "It's me." - "It's me."
- It's me. - How so?
(Look at me.)
(I won't say more.)
- I am confident. - You're confident.
- He's confident. - I am confident.
I'm confident about my face and body.
- Right. - Your face and body.
Are you the most handsome member of NCT?
Of course.
(He's got the reason to be confident.)
"Of course."
Did you see him? Who was he talking to?
(Are you watching this, NCT?)
It's you.
In SM Entertainment, who is the handsomest?
Hyun Moo is there too.
Lucas.
(It's me.)
I love this.
It's much better than denying it.
- Right. - He says it's him.
- He's fearless. - You need confidence.
- You need confidence. - Yes.
- Lucas. Is it true? - He's good.
Are you really absorbed in your beauty?
- Yes. - Really?
Yes. Whenever...
I run into a mirror or a glass...
If a car passes by, I look at my face.
Do you know that you are handsome?
Yes. When I am getting makeup,
I am surprised that someone as beautiful...
as me exists in this world.
- You're too beautiful. - He's amazing.
- He's right though. - He's a new character.
We have to agree with him.
Actually...
- He's funny. - He's handsome,
but there aren't many who would say it out loud.
- As a fellow idol, - You can't deny it.
We haven't seen someone like him.
You are flustered, aren't you?
I think he's amazing.
Even if you think that, how can you...
- say it out loud? - I know.
It's new though.
- Yes. - It's original.
When you are confident, you can even go higher.
When you look at yourself in the mirror...
- after a shower... - Every day, I do this.
You fall in love with your muscles.
I do this.
He is handsome.
(Guard your heart.)
All right.
- His legs are... - By the way,
- they are really long. - Yes.
His legs are so long.
You usually don't give yourself a thumb up.
I heard Lucas has been wanting to see Jae Seok.
- Really? - Right.
I am his huge fan.
You're on "Running Man".
It's very famous in Hong Kong.
You are still very young.
Were you more popular when you were younger?
You must've been handsome since you were young.
Do you want to see his photos?
(He was already handsome as a young boy.)
Look at the photo on the right.
- He's handsome. - He's really cute.
Look at the photo in the middle.
He looks like a lead actor of a Taiwanese film.
Were you a child actor?
- Or a Hong Kong film. - Were you?
Were you? In Hong Kong?
I knew it.
I'm sorry, but why do you keep hosting the show?
She asks questions to only one person.
She's got an ulterior motive.
- Tell us about Pyongyang. - Lucas.
Were you once a basketball player?
- I was... - Track and field?
- A javelin thrower? - a javelin thrower.
He must've been super popular.
By the way,
he's like a lead character...
of a film or a drama.
- "The Last Match". - Right.
People like him exist in real life.
- People like him exist. - Right.
When I was young, I wasn't popular.
- Why? - Why?
- Girls didn't like me. - Why?
(Lucas wasn't popular?)
(Why?)
I was too handsome.
I made them feel insecure.
(That's enough!)
No, it's not like that.
- Get up! - How can you say that?
Jae Seok understands me.
- You know me, right? - How would he know?
Be quiet.
- I know it. - Know what?
- I know it. - I know it too.
I know how you feel, Lucas.
You were too handsome.
- It's like this. - They felt insecure.
The girls around him...
- felt insecure. - They were nervous.
- Right. - Jae Seok must've...
made them feel nervous for a different reason.
Is that right?
They say popularity shapes people.
In the past, we acted as a couple.
- Really? - On a sitcom.
Yes. At the time,
Jae Seok wasn't considered handsome.
That's right.
The society made him handsome.
The country made him handsome.
Right.
Anyway,
I was really happy when Lucas said,
"You know how it is."
(It's like he's been validated.)
- My gosh. - He's a funny man.
I didn't hesitate to receive it.
"I know how it is."
"I know. I know."
What are you particularly confident about?
Your face and body?
I am confident...
about my chest.
Your chest muscles?
- We can't see it. - I can make it move.
- Make it move. - It moves.
- Like this? - Move. Move.
- Let's see. - Don't be surprised.
- Come on. - Move. Move.
(His chest muscles move.)
(He managed to do that.)
Can't all men do that?
- Try it. - Mine doesn't move.
(He shouldn't have said anything.)
(He already did it twice.)
(He's ashamed of Chang Jung.)
Try taking a break.
My goodness.
This is what happens when you take a break.
After a while,
- I will get it back. - I know you will.
I'm confident to adjust quickly.
He's got the sense.
Lucas, is there...
nothing you want to change about your face?
- No. - What can there be?
I wouldn't change anything.
His eyes, nose, and mouth are all lovely.
My head is too small.
I want it to be a little bigger.
(What is he saying?)
- Look at Sae Ho. - What about me?
Look at him.
- What about me? - I pointed at him.
I pointed at Sae Ho without realizing it.
My head suits for someone who is 187cm tall.
- It's too big. - It should be 190cm.
- 190cm. - Yes.
(The man with a small head won't understand.)
We should introduce another person.
She was in the drama "Your House Helper"...
which aired right before our show.
She's the charming helper who heals our hearts.
It's Bona of WJSN.
(Bona of WJSN)
Welcome.
She's like the next Suzy.
You've established yourself as an actress.
When I just debuted,
Suzy was my role model.
I wanted to do both acting and singing.
Even if she's successful as an actress,
she released albums as a soloist.
She communicates...
with her fans well too.
I thought that was amazing.
And I wanted to do both just as well.
It's as if you prepared that answer.
- She's like a lawyer. - Really...
You led her well.
Your mother is very happy about your career.
Even after I debuted,
my mom never used my photo...
as her profile photo.
Last year, I attended Drama Awards.
She put the photo of me from the awards...
on her profile.
Finally, she is proud of me.
When I'm on a music show,
because there are 13 of us,
each of us gets about five seconds each time.
So my mom's friends and elders...
don't know me.
But her friends saw me in the drama...
and called her.
Moms love dramas.
She could see you longer.
You made your brother's army life better too.
- I heard that. - I'm sure she did.
He must be so popular there.
His sister is an idol.
My brother joined the army right before...
- my debut. - He joined the army.
- That's crazy. - When I was a trainee,
I sent him photos of us,
and all the members wrote him a letter.
Did they write him letters?
He must have loved it.
I sent him a signed album of SISTAR.
I talked to each of...
his superiors on the phone.
He must have started his army life comfortably.
I don't know if it made his life better,
but I tried my best to help him.
Bona is...
- really lovely. - She's really lovely.
I heard you are most confident about your nose.
- Her nose is lovely. - Yes. I chose my nose.
He's got an American nose.
All my family members have the same nose.
I look good in profile.
Right.
On music shows, I turn my face...
to the side.
It's good that your family members look the same.
People misunderstand you if they don't look alike.
Since I was young, many people asked me...
if I got my nose done.
Why would you steal our lines?
Come on, Eun Hye.
- She told it. - Eun Hye.
The more you do this,
the weaker my position gets.
- I'll be scolded. - Eun Hye.
My goodness.
Did you come here looking for a job?
Why do you have no business etiquette?
- Chang Jung... - Eun Hye.
I wanted to say it too, but I didn't.
(I'm stopping myself.)
Chang Jung used to be a host too.
I used to be a host too.
- I can't help myself. - He was big.
I heard...
Bona has been preparing to be...
a celebrity since the early age.
When I was younger, the mothers in town...
used to tell Mom that...
I should be a celebrity.
They told her that I could be Miss Korea.
Hearing those things as a young girl,
I thought I could become a celebrity.
(Am I meant to be a celebrity?)
That naturally made me become interested.
But to prepare for it,
you tried to control your surroundings.
You tried not to leave any ugly past.
I had nothing.
I wasn't even a trainee.
I just thought to myself that...
I shouldn't leave any ugly past since I am...
going to be a singer and a celebrity.
I didn't join school dance competitions..
(She didn't want to stand out.)
You didn't want to leave any records.
I just did that for no reason.
She was afraid that these things might...
- Haunt her. - haunt her later.
She's meticulous.
You must've had no boyfriends either.
I didn't date anyone when I was in school.
You were going to be a celebrity.
In middle school, she was in dance team.
- Right? - Yes.
I loved dancing since I was young.
She prepared a dance for Happy Together.
- Please show us. - Let's see the dance.
("Save Me, Save You" by WJSN)
It's lovely.
(She's got power and innocence.)
(She dances hard and she looks beautiful.)
(She looks beautiful however you look at her.)
(Her dance makes...)
(the men's hearts flutter.)
(Her charms are as infinite as the space.)
(She is fatally charming.)
(Everyone claps for her.)
I love the song.
Lucas raised his hand.
- I have one too. - What?
- What is it? - I can dance too.
I...
- That's very random. - Are you dancing?
When you dance, the most important thing is...
- your feeling... - Your feeling.
and your facial expression.
Your facial expression.
- I will show you. - Okay.
- Let's go! - Okay.
(I've been waiting for this moment.)
(He's very tall.)
(He looks just like Michael Jackson.)
(Striding)
(Oh, my goodness.)
He's good.
My goodness. Lucas is so funny.
(He's just like the king of pop music.)
He's funny.
- Lucas is funny. - Goodness.
Bravo.
You are good.
- 1, 2. - 3, 4.
(He's got the facial expression.)
(We need to multiply him.)
(He makes people drop their jaws.)
I can tell...
(I'm in charge of my own air time.)
(He finishes it with his handsome face.)
- He's good. - Bravo.
My goodness.
Since he's so tall,
he easily filled up the stage.
Lucas and Bona, thank you for that performance.
Chang Jung, I hear that...
you said you're quite athletic.
It's not that I'm good at sports.
I'm just very sharp when it comes to things.
Whenever I do something,
even when I played sports as a kid,
I had a keen eye for the rules.
- You're a fast learner. - I quickly pick it up,
but then my interest quickly dwindles.
You're known for being good at sports.
Golf and baseball is among them.
- He's very nimble. - Yes, I am. When I dance,
you can barely see my moves.
I have short limbs, so I'm done in a flash.
You know how it is.
Most of your dance moves go like this.
- You're a great dancer. - My moves are nimble.
Do your children take after you then?
Are they also athletic too?
Yes, they have sharp eyes for things too.
They're quick studies.
In about five months after learning how to golf,
one of them competed in a tournament.
- In five months? - That's amazing.
Chang Jung may be athletic,
but he's known more for his vocals.
- Of course. - He's a great singer.
Being known as a good singer...
depends on how others view my singing.
But when it comes to the volume of my vocals...
There's a video that went viral online.
While he was singing, the song stopped playing.
- Right. - So without any music,
he finished singing the song live.
(During an outdoor event)
I truly
(The song starts to drag along.)
(The music gets turned off.)
Don't turn it back on.
Seeing you leave
(He continued the song without any music.)
I tried to empty my heart
But before I knew it
(He overcame the obstacle with his singing ability, )
(and the audience cheered in gratitude.)
- I couldn't believe it. - I saw that too.
When that normally happens,
others quit singing...
because they can't continue.
Chang Jung didn't give up though.
He sang the rest of it without background music.
If I didn't, my fee would've been canceled.
I see.
- He's a professional. - So that's why.
- I had to work. - He couldn't bail.
It is said that...
his mike goes down to his belly button.
- What does that mean? - He has a powerful voice.
When you see others...
with powerful vocals sing,
they lower the mike away from their faces.
I found that charismatic.
- There's a photo. - I think it's cool,
and that's why I also do it.
Everyone can do that though.
- No, we can't. - Yes, you can.
When I lower the mike,
the audio team increases the volume.
- Really? - The audio team?
- I didn't expect that. - What?
He always lowers his mike when singing,
but he sounds just as loud!
The audio team keeps changing the settings.
What? My gosh.
- That's great. - I see.
The audio team must be on their toes.
Before I knew that,
I really believed I had powerful vocals.
At first, I was amazed at myself.
Then I saw the audio team turn up the volume.
I see.
(They were adjusting the volume.)
They were changing the mike settings.
Still, he's an amazing singer.
Of course.
Many enjoy and wait for new songs...
by Chang Jung.
Can you tell us about your new single?
Most of my songs are like...
"The Love I Committed" or "A Shot of Soju".
This time, my songs will be more aggressive...
and have a strong beat to them.
- Really? - They're different.
So they're different to what we're used to.
The lead single has a very long title.
"There Has Never Been A Day I Haven't Loved You".
It's really long.
In short, I call it "TDL".
- "TDL"? - "TDL".
Could we hear a snippet of it?
- Please sing it for us. - Right.
("There Has Never Been A Day I Haven't"...)
("Loved You" by Im Chang Jung)
[VIU Ver] E557 Happy Together "Stars with Superior Genes Special" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
♪ Because we don't know at the time ♪
(The music suddenly goes off.)
♪ Because we don't know at the time ♪
(They're all flustered.)
♪ The days we remember ♪
(His voice shines through even without any music.)
♪ What kind of love was ours? ♪
(Blaring)
(In my heart)
(Respect!)
That was amazing.
- Goodness. - You still have it.
Why was the music turned off?
I don't know what happened.
The track must've bounced in a weird way.
(It wasn't on purpose.)
It wasn't on purpose, but it happened.
That was great though.
I couldn't tell that he had a sore throat.
Me neither.
My favorite song of yours is "A Shot of Soju".
Isn't it because you like soju?
Yes, I do like that as well.
Did you write the song while inebriated?
- No, of course not. - It's a masterpiece.
There are some famous rumors regarding the song.
Many say that the lyrics are...
what you said on a drunk phone call.
I've heard that a lot.
I was on my way to the recording studio,
but I couldn't reach the lyricist.
I still had no lyrics for the song.
That's why I wrote how I'd like the song to be,
and kept revising it as I recorded.
- While humming the song? - Yes, that's right.
Did you write the lyrics yourself?
Yes. That part where the lyrics go...
"Hello, it's me" is familiar to us now,
but it doesn't quite work with the original melody.
That's why the songwriter...
wished for us...
to release the song later...
with new lyrics.
I insisted that the song was great.
I love that part the most.
So I released the song.
- Many loved it though. - I love the song.
It wasn't common at that time to...
write aggressive lyrics
- to a soft ballad. - It was very direct.
Others won't have made it sound this good.
- Exactly. - I agree.
It's been a while since you released a song.
Will we see you a lot on music shows?
Yes, of course.
Haven't TV music shows changed a lot though?
I haven't been on hiatus that long,
so I know the drill.
I say hello to idols who come to greet me.
(Don't worry and come to greet me.)
Bona, would you and the rest of WJSN...
go and greet him too?
- Yes, of course. - Of course.
Stay put, and I'll come to you.
In terms of "Music Bank",
we all watch the others rehearse.
From what I hear,
Chang Jung's live performance...
is worthy of a standing ovation.
- Of course. - That's why these days...
to protect my vocals,
I lip-sync during dry rehearsals.
(He jokes about lip-syncing.)
Of course.
It'll be really funny...
if I lip-synced during rehearsals.
- I once did. - Really?
You sing with music accompaniment.
I still ended up ruining the live show.
(The legendary Odongdo Island Incident)
Those who can't sing must practice beforehand.
He's right.
I wasn't able to hit the high notes.
It was a disaster.
Lucas, have you met him at a music show before?
- No, I haven't. - No.
It hasn't been long since I debuted.
I see.
He probably learned of Chang Jung today.
If they'd met on "Music Bank" first,
he might have wondered why...
- What's he doing here? - What brings you by?
- Did you release a song? - He's the bar owner.
"What about your bar tonight?"
(He's a senior singer from today.)
Yoo Jung, you got married last year.
Next month will be our one-year anniversary.
Are you happy?
Many ask me...
after my marriage...
if I'm having fun.
I say that it's not all fun though.
There are ups and downs.
That's how marriage is in reality.
It's especially because...
we both got married over the age of 40.
It wasn't easy to compromise and give in.
- That's right. - When do you feel that...
you made the right choice to marry him?
It's at times like this.
Sometimes, I feel depressed...
and I want to relieve myself of the stress.
Before, I didn't know who to meet...
and what facial expressions to carry.
However, now that I have a husband,
I have someone who is always with me.
He's with me when things are happy or sad.
That's the best thing I love about marriage.
Are you going to ask what I don't like too?
- Yes. - If that's okay with you.
We'd like to check both sides of the mirror.
It's not like I loathe this but,
there are times when I don't want to eat meals.
Sure, you sometimes don't have an appetite.
When my husband is hungry...
even at 2 or 3 in the morning,
instead of asking why,
I just go to the kitchen and cook for him.
- That's amazing. - Why doesn't he cook?
He could cook it himself.
I've never asked him...
why he'd eat at a questionable hour.
Really? Don't you want to...
stay in bed at that time?
When you cook...
I don't think this is appropriate for me to ask.
Hyun Kyung should ask.
You wear an apron on top of underwear.
(Does she cook in her underwear?)
- My gosh. - They're married anyway.
Exactly. It's a small event.
You don't sleep with...
your clothes on.
Why not?
Why won't you sleep in clothes?
Sometimes, you don't.
It was hot this summer so...
It's her house, so she can do whatever she wants.
- It was hot this summer. - I wake up...
before my husband does. Sometimes,
I stay by his side,
and sometimes I walk around the living Room.
I forget to...
cover myself with clothes,
and I walk around in my underwear.
- So that's why... - Yes.
I tell my husband...
to wake up since I'm staring breakfast.
I tell him that I'll start cooking.
When that time comes,
I'm busy making breakfast,
so I don't have the time to put on clothes.
When it's all done, I tell him to eat,
and head inside to change clothes.
Then I join him for the meal.
I hear that you're the one...
who instigates physical contact.
Women of the older generation...
like it more when men make the first move.
They find it embarrassing to make the first move,
and they think it's humiliating in some way.
That's how some women think, right?
- Yes. - Right?
I'm not like that though. It doesn't matter...
- who instigates it. - You don't care.
I personally enjoy physical contact.
I do it a lot because I worry that...
I won't be able to later.
I worry that things will get awkward between us.
So I instigate physical contact,
and my husband does it too when he wants to.
It's why everything feels natural between us.
Did he really propose in two months?
Really?
Two months after your first date?
About two months in,
we went on a trip together.
We went to the Maldives.
I hear that it's a place for honeymoons.
You went to the Maldives just after two months?
We didn't meet sparsely when dating.
We met nearly every day for that two months,
so we enjoyed as many dates as...
couples who've been together for months.
So on the trip,
he said he'd take me out to dinner.
He had borrowed a yacht for us to take.
I thought we were going to a restaurant.
Anyway, once I got off,
I saw array of cameras taking photos of us.
I didn't doubt it at all...
since we were taking some while on vacation anyway.
I didn't question cameras pointing at us.
- You didn't find it odd. - No.
Anyway, then my husband...
turned to face me.
His eyes were suddenly brimming with tears.
- Suddenly? - Yes,
at the sight of me.
I couldn't understand why this man...
was on the verge of tears.
What came to mind...
was a scene from the series I was filming.
I played the role of a single mom,
and I was dating a man from a wealthy family.
His mother didn't approve of us...
even though we're deeply in love.
That's why we go on a final trip together.
We promise to break up after the trip.
I set off to the Maldives...
right after filming that.
So seeing him cry in front of me...
made me burst into tears as well.
I thought that this was it for us.
- Your last trip. - Exactly.
I was so upset that...
he'd end things like this.
The scenario seemed to align.
So we hugged each other.
For about 10 seconds, we cried in...
each other's embrace.
Once we were done,
he took out a ring,
got down on one knee, and proposed.
I bet you cried more since you were moved.
I was so surprised that I knelt down too.
- It was unexpected. - I had no idea.
You thought he was going to break up with you.
Yes, we were thinking two very different things.
I was so surprised that I knelt down too.
Since he proposed to me...
(Her boyfriend proposed.)
I told him that I wanted to marry him...
and accepted his proposal.
During our meal together,
we cried for about an hour.
Really?
(A meal of tears)
Both our eyes got puffy.
I told my husband that...
I probably had it tough just so I could meet you.
That's what I said.
Why did your husband cry?
He said he was surprised with himself.
Why?
(What?)
He hasn't proposed to anyone before,
so he was overwhelmed by the situation.
He also loved that he was proposing to me,
- that's why... - He was overwhelmed.
He was overwhelmed with emotions.
I'm sure he was overwhelmed...
with the love he has for you,
but he also thought that he looked cool.
Yes, exactly.
- He's like Lucas. - Of course.
He thought he looked decent.
Like Lucas?
Do you have any nicknames?
He hates when I say it,
but I call him "Baby."
Not his name?
You call him "Baby"?
You've seen him before, so what you do think?
Does he seem young for his age?
It's not a word that comes to mind.
Can't you just say...
that it's plausible?
Men look at other men differently.
- Right. - He's very handsome.
(Embarrassed)
My husband said this to me once.
"I can't look at flowers for long periods of time,"
"but I could look at you forever."
- That's incredible. - What was that?
- Honeymoon phase. - They're both sweet...
and they're in their honeymoon phase.
It goes to show that they are...
- much in love. - Of course.
By the way, Chang Jung...
competed with Korea's...
best boy bands, H.O.T. and Sechs Kies,
and won the Grand Prize.
At that time, it wasn't easy to...
beat both groups.
Especially as a solo artist.
It's quite the accomplishment.
Let me tell you about that time.
- Of course. - Please tell us.
- You should. - Back then...
Let me tell you about that time.
- Of course. - Please tell us.
- You should. - Back then,
fans of H.O.T. and Sechs Kies...
were enough to fill up all the seats...
in a main stadium.
That's how popular both groups were.
If one team won the Grand Prize,
the other team's fans would start a riot.
I guess that's why.
While waiting for the announcement,
fans of both groups chanted their names.
It was chaotic!
The KBS Grand Prize.
(Who will receive the Grand Prize?)
Who will receive the Grand Prize?
(The cheers swallowed the hosts words.)
Announce Hwang will reveal the winner.
(H.O.T. or Sechs Kies?)
The Grand Prize goes to...
Im Chang Jung!
- My name was called. - Im Chang Jung!
I was in the back.
Both teams were ready to receive the trophy.
No one could hear me asking them to move.
- Of course. - The fans were screaming.
I pushed my way to the front.
(He had to make it out by himself.)
It's me. Move out of the way!
How were the fans?
They didn't realize my name was called.
That's how loud they were.
Even the artists didn't know who was called.
At that moment...
which five seconds felt like a minute,
no one knew that my name had been called.
- That's how loud it was. - So I...
had to tell everyone that it was me. On screen...
- "Me?" - "Why me?"
"Why me instead of H.O.T. or Sechs Kies?"
That's how it looked like.
That's what people thought had happened.
However, I was telling everyone it was me.
So that's what happened.
"Guys, I won the Grand Prize!"
I believe it was Jinusean.
They said, "You?"
Yes, me!
We thought you were dazzled back then.
How did the fans react afterwards?
So this is what happened afterwards.
I've never seen an audience empty...
an auditorium so fast.
No way!
Oh no.
There was only a tiny door,
but they were using it to leave...
even in the dark.
They looked like ants.
That's how quickly they headed out.
- They all left. - Yes, they did.
The fans discussed among them...
why it wasn't H.O.T or Sechs Kies.
"Who in the earth is Im Chang Jung?"
"Why is he winning someone else's prize?"
That's what brought together the fans...
of H.O.T. and Sechs Kies.
They bonded over their hatred for me.
(The two group of fans united.)
Over their hatred for me!
"Im Chang Jung isn't even good."
I remember watching him win the prize.
Didn't you thank the fans for their support?
You winning the prize wasn't unexpected.
We mentioned this earlier,
but you were a worthy winner...
of that prize.
- Exactly. - I remember...
hearing fans scream...
whenever his song won first place on shows.
Of course.
(Cheers grew louder after the announcement.)
(While singing the encore...)
(Whenever I'm alone)
(The legendary sing-along)
My fans did a great job back then.
From what I hear, they were a match...
for a hundred.
Other singers had...
a bigger number of fans,
but my fans weren't intimidated.
- No, they weren't. - That's right.
H.O.T. and Sechs Kies will have a concert...
on the same day.
- Really? - Really?
Why don't you have a concert on the same day?
It will be a three-way fight.
I will have...
a tour around the nation from the third week...
of November.
If I have the time, I want to go...
- to their concerts. - It will be fun.
The girls who used to yell at me...
became middle-aged women.
I want to go...
and watch the concert with the audience.
"We apologize for our past behavior."
It was the beginning of this year, right?
I got to watch a performance by H.O.T.
While the performance was good,
the fans really touched me.
Seeing the fans so happy...
touched me.
The fans are responsible...
for the reunion of H.O.T.
- My fans are... - They are amazing.
- the same. - Of course.
It's incredible that you won against a group.
That's right. I wasn't intimidated.
- Yoo Jung was popular... - She was very popular.
- as the mambo girl. - The mambo girl.
I am sure the two of you don't know...
what we are talking about.
She used to take the stage.
- She was the mambo girl. - Yes.
Let's see the video.
Gosh, what is that?
Why would you show that video?
Gosh, what is that?
(Pay attention to her face.)
- Look at her face. - Who is in the middle?
The man in the middle is too excited.
- Seriously. - What am I doing?
- That's Kim Boo Yong. - You are right.
"Poverty in the Midst of Plenty".
- That's right. - Yes.
I was in the music video of Kim Boo Yong's...
"Poverty in the Midst of Plenty".
Since the music video became a hit,
I performed with him.
How popular were you as the mambo girl?
You were more popular than the singer.
People called me by my name...
- when it became known. - I was active back then,
so I can tell you what it was like.
Let's say you saw Kim Boo Yong and went,
"It's Kim Boo Yong, a singer!"
"Who is he?" "He sings next to the mambo girl!"
(Popular versus unpopular)
Their positions were switched.
- She was more popular. - I bet he was angry.
We are close friends.
(Don't criticize your good friend.)
This is how popular Yoo Jung was back then.
She bought...
a 660m² house for her mom.
- Did it happen back then? - Right?
- No, no. - You saved up money.
While I made more money...
than my peers,
I didn't buy her a house in Yangpyeong right away.
I worked for many years...
- and saved up money... - You saved up money.
to buy her a house.
You bought a 660m² house for your mom.
It's impressive.
Eun Hye,
you briefly talked about raising children.
Do they really hate that you act?
One day,
they said they don't want to be adults.
When I asked them why,
they said they don't want to be on TV.
- TV? - What does it mean?
They thought...
all adults are on TV.
It's understandable.
They said they don't want to be adults...
because they don't want to be on TV.
It means they don't like seeing me on TV.
- Why is that the case? - I know why.
I don't usually watch TV,
but I had monitored my scenes briefly...
three times.
In one scene, I get slapped.
In one scene, the police drags me away.
In one scene, I cry at the hospital.
My children saw those scenes.
On the day they saw the police drag me away,
they tearfully told a kindergarten teacher...
that I got arrested.
- My goodness. - The teachers were lost.
Thankfully, one of them had seen the drama.
She explained it to the others and said,
"If you behave today,"
"we can go to save her."
It wrapped up the situation.
When my children hear that I am going to a shoot,
they hate it.
They tear up.
"Will a man hit you?" They ask me that.
- They saw those scenes. - That's right.
When my children hear that I am going to work,
they think it's something different.
They do that...
- because they love you... - They love me.
- a lot. - That's right.
This is something they asked in passing.
They asked,
"Did you struggle when you gave birth?"
I did struggle. I had a premature birth.
So I said,
"I did struggle." "Did it hurt a lot?"
"Yes, it hurt a lot."
"Did Grandma help you?"
"Yes, she did."
They suddenly said,
"Grandma, thank you for helping Mom."
They love you so much.
I was touched.
Even if they give you a headache,
those words melt you.
- They are touching. - That's right.
They don't need to know what 2 plus 3 is.
- It doesn't matter. - That's right.
It doesn't matter.
Have you been touched by your children, Chang Jung?
- I bet it happens often. - Seriously.
Their presence alone touches me.
When your son's friends visited the house,
they saw your trophy from "Music Bank".
(How did they react?)
My trophies are on display at home.
My oldest son's friends know who I am.
- They know who you are. - Yes.
When they visited and saw the trophies,
they recognized one of it.
"Oh,"
"Im Chang Jung won this a few days ago."
My son was like,
"Don't call my dad by his name."
It's understandable.
They didn't know you were a friend's dad.
- They knew, - I see.
but I am simply Im Chang Jung to them.
They can't call me "Uncle" or "Mister".
- You are right. - You are right.
They call me "Now on My Way to Meet You".
My goodness.
"Now on My Way to Meet You".
All right.
How are things in Pyeongyang these days?
(The President was on his way to meet them.)
(I hope for good news.)
(I am "Now on My Way to Meet You".)
Eun Hye, I heard that you debuted Park Ki Young.
What? Did you debut her yourself?
No, I didn't.
We went to the same high school.
We are close since we sat front and back.
She was popular in Incheon for her singing skills.
Back then, there was something called...
the Civilian Education Charter.
I haven't heard that in a while.
I changed the wording...
to introduce Ki Young...
on a radio show, "Rock, Paper, Scissors".
- You sent a story. - Byun Jin Sub hosted it.
- I sent a story. - "Rock, Paper, Scissors".
Yes. The story got picked...
and Ki Young got to sing.
She placed first,
performed a week, a month, and a year later,
and debuted as a singer.
Your submission changed her life.
Eun Hye made it possible for us to hear her songs.
- That's right. - That's right.
Eun Hye, you can tell...
you will succeed, right?
- I can tell. - I experienced it.
- I said he will succeed. - Did you say that?
- Yes. - When did you say that?
- We worked together. - He was a newbie.
- He wasn't successful. - No.
- She said that. - Yang Se Hyeong.
(Eun Hye's 2nd pick, Yang Se Hyeong)
I asked the scriptwriters...
to invite him to my program...
so many times. I said he is hilarious.
Nam Chang Hee will be next.
- Really? - Really?
Jae Seok has said it for five years.
- Really? - I continue...
to follow up on his endeavors.
I think he will be successful.
Chang Hee will make it some day.
- You keep saying that. - It saddens me.
- It will occur in a year. - His success?
- Yes. - It will be hard.
(I hope that day comes.)
In a year?
He might need more time.
Life is unpredictable.
- That's right. - I hope it happens.
She has foresight.
(We hope Chang Hee will succeed in a year.)
Lucas, your parents...
must have been proud to see you debut.
They were worried about SM Entertainment.
- Really? - Yes.
They were worried.
When I attended the audition,
my parents cheered me on.
They wished me luck.
When I passed the audition...
and received the offer...
SM Entertainment gave you an offer.
Then my parents worried a bit.
"Maybe this is a fake company."
They thought it might be a fake company.
"It can't be SM Entertainment."
It's a big company.
I told my parents,
"Don't worry because I can do well."
"I can do well."
Have you met Lee Soo Man?
- Yes, I have. - When did it happen?
When NCT was in the making,
I had to talk to him.
All the members sat in the meeting room.
I didn't know any Korean back then,
so I pretended to understand.
"Yes, yes." I just nodded.
How much did you understand?
Zero.
- You understood nothing. - Yes.
I didn't know any Korean back then.
- You just said, "Yes." - Yes.
Did Lee Soo Man think you understood?
Yes.
The same thing happens at my agency.
When the director talks to Cheng Xiao,
she nods and says yes with a smile...
even when she doesn't understand.
"Did you understand?" "No."
- It became a habit. - That's right.
You are receiving...
attention and popularity on variety shows.
I heard that you are sad about something.
- That's right. - What is it?
I look cool when I perform.
When you perform as a member of NCT.
(His charisma commands the stage.)
(Lucas has lethal charms.)
On variety shows,
I look like a fool. It saddens me.
It's the case on variety shows.
On a regular basis,
I look cool.
I sit like this.
I think a lot.
- You look cool. - He has long legs.
- I do this. - Okay.
I want to show this side of me.
- You want to show it. - Yes.
Earlier, Lucas said that...
he will rule once he learns Korean.
He will rule.
Why don't you speak in your mother tongue?
- Show us how you speak. - It will be cool.
(He becomes cool.)
(He is like Takeshi Kaneshiro.)
Can you say what you said in Korean?
Hello, I am...
He pronounces "Hello" in a cute way.
- This is... - Seriously.
His tone changes.
Lucas can speak Korean very well.
- That's right. - That's right.
He learned enough Korean...
to express himself...
on a variety show. It's quite a feat.
- He is smart. - That's right.
- He is multilingual. - That's right.
It's hard to study Korean, right?
Yes. I am really bad at studying.
How did you study Korean?
My agency offers classes.
- You took classes. - Yes. However,
I always went in and slept.
- Really? - Yes.
- He is still good. - Seriously.
What was the hardest thing about Korean?
Was it the pronunciation?
In Cantonese...
Stress?
There are no honorifics.
- Honorifics. - I see.
I still don't know how to talk...
to a senior singer.
- It gets confusing. - Yes.
When you leave after a meal, you say,
"Enjoy your meal."
I used to go,
"Eat well."
"Enjoy your meal."
"I will get going now."
He went, "Eat well."
You should have said it to Lee Soo Man.
- My goodness. - "Eat up."
At least he added "Well". "Eat."
"Eat a big meal."
You said that you are sad since you are different...
on variety shows, but I say it makes you...
- relatable. - It's your charm.
- That's right. - An unexpected charm.
You are really cute.
Bona, you gained many fans...
through a drama, "Girls' Generation 1979".
- People became fans. - That's right.
(I am Lee Jung Hee.)
Come on, Dong Moon.
(She shows her cute acts.)
(Cute)
You spoke a dialect in the drama.
I am from Daegu.
The drama is set in Daegu.
- I see. - It's set in the 70s.
My character's name and the birth year were...
the same as my mom's.
- Really? - The character had...
my mom's name and the birth year.
- It was fate. - My mom loved it.
She must have loved the drama.
The drama brought back memories for her.
Bananas used to be a precious fruit.
- It was like that. - Really?
Only the rich families had turntables.
- That's right. - It was like that.
I thought I had fixed my accent,
but it comes out from time to time...
- without my knowledge. - Give us an example.
- Monday. Tuesday. - Monday.
Sunday. I still have an accent.
- I can't pronounce "Day". - "Day".
There was a line that goes,
"The tiresome day..." I said it with an accent.
- That's right. - "The tiresome day..."
- It comes out. - Your accent comes out.
I heard that you prepared a cute act with a dialect.
A lot of people are under a misunderstanding.
A dialect is rough and unaffected.
It's manly in many ways,
but it's shown as something cute on TV.
I can't act cute.
- How cute! - It's in a drama.
- She is so cute. - It's in a drama.
She is good.
- It's in a drama. - She is so cute.
Chang Jung and popularity go hand in hand.
Among the new terms of 2018 is...
"Boss Im Chang Jung".
- "Boss Im Chang Jung". - It's in a commercial.
The employee benefits of my company...
They became the talk of the town.
- There it is. - There it is.
Four insurances, severance pay,
four leaves a month.
A manager gets a car.
That's right. I saw the advertisement.
It's impressive.
I didn't make those rules.
One of the owners of the restaurants...
came up with those rules for the employees.
Since the franchise belongs to me,
people misunderstood.
You must be thankful.
I am very thankful.
I read the rules.
While I try to follow those rules,
there are some rules I simply can't follow.
On the bottom, it says,
"The owner can make less."
Those are the words I want to live by.
His philosophy is in that advertisement.
That's right.
In 2016, you were voted as the number 1 star...
people want to work with.
- You were voted. - It's thanks...
to the owner of the restuarant.
It improved the image...
of the franchise.
The advertisement spread on social media.
While I didn't put up that advertisement,
I feel like I have to do it.
It puts a pressure on me.
It's a good influence on other businesses.
That's right.
I try my best to follow those rules.
You sing at your employee's wedding.
Of course I do.
- It's the least I can do. - I see.
Do you go to the wedding?
Of course I do. I do that if I have time.
- He is loyal. - Eun Hye was...
in "Dae Jang Geum".
(Eun Hye played Yeon Saeng.)
It's her most popular work.
The drama was a hit abroad as well.
(She played Jang Geum's friend...)
(who later became Royal Concubine Lee.)
It became a hit in Iran.
That's right. It became a hit in Iran.
- I went there. - What do you mean?
- I went to Iran. - Why did you go there?
- There was an event. - Really?
- An event in Iran. - It happened last year.
I thought it would be a scary country,
but people told me that's Iraq.
Iran is different.
- When I say that... - Iraq is unrelated.
People think that there will be...
soldiers with guns.
- They don't know. - Everyone asked me that,
but I didn't see any guns. It was a prayer time.
You hear the music when it's a prayer time.
- No one was praying. - Why?
I asked the guide, "Why is no one praying?"
"People don't pray these days."
- Really? - Yes.
When you are on TV,
you can't show a single strand of hair.
- I wore a hijab... - Hijab.
very tightly around my head...
for an interview.
Did "Dae Jang Geum" get a good viewer rating?
I heard it was around 86 percent.
That's what I heard as well.
"Lee San, Wind of the Palace" is airing.
Han Sang Jin told me...
the viewer rating is around 90 percent.
Since Eun Hye is on the show,
we should this as an opportunity...
to sell Happy Together to Iran.
Eun Hye, you said that Lee Young Ae is eccentric.
- Lee Young Ae. - You saw her play...
The Rose of Sharon Has Bloomed.
Does the woman like oxygen play that game?
I saw her play it with three staff members.
- Really? - A manager, a stylist...
We only play the game for the show.
- You imitated her. - No, I didn't.
- You sounded similar. - What did I do?
- You imitated her. - Really?
She goes, "Eun Hye."
"Did you get a shot?" She said that...
when there was a flu going around.
She is always composed.
When it's really cold, she sits straight...
with a blanket on her lap and reads the script.
- She sits still. - She does it in the cold.
Perhaps her body froze.
- Excuse me. - Perhaps her body froze.
- Stop it. - Perhaps her body froze.
Stop it.
Myung Soo always tells dad jokes...
- towards the end. - When someone is...
sitting still in minus 20°C,
that means her body froze.
Eun Hye, you resemble Joey Wong.
Do people in Hong Kong say that as well?
Yes, they do.
When I filmed a movie with Leon Lai,
he told me over a meal...
that my posture, facial expression,
and style of speech are similar to hers.
An advertiser in Hong Kong got you insured...
- for 1,600,000 dollars. - What is that about?
When I went to Hong Kong for the first time,
he got me insured because it's dangerous...
when there is a big crowd.
Back then, I went to many nice restaurants,
but I always entered through the back door.
I passed through the storage...
to arrive at nice restaurants.
It's impossible to revisit those restaurants.
- I missed the entrance. - You saw the back door.
Were there so many fans of yours...
that you couldn't walk down the street?
I don't think so. They didn't let me walk.
They probably didn't want to disappoint me.
They were taking precautions.
They were worried.
I remember that.
Lucas.
Do you have a celebrity rival?
- Tell us what you think. - A celebrity rival.
- I have one. - Who is it?
Justin Bieber.
- Really? - He is your rival.
In the US, people have Justin Bieber.
In Asia, people need an idol.
That's me, Lucas.
(That's me, Lucas.)
Justin Bieber of Asia, Lucas.
I heard that you are a fan of Justin Bieber.
- Yes. - You can copy his face.
- I can copy his face. - Let's see it.
Okay. Come on.
He is the young Joon Park.
Take a look.
Justin Bieber does this for a picture.
Face the camera.
- That's right. - He looks similar.
He poses like this.
(He looks like a copy.)
(They become excited for the next expression.)
Face the camera.
I can sing his song.
Sing his song.
(In the US, there is Justin Bieber.)
He is similar.
He is like Justin Bieber. He looks the same.
(I am a pop star.)
He is like Justin Bieber.
(He shows Justin Bieber's explosive groove.)
(They give him a big hand.)
Sometimes, he is like Min Ho.
Sometimes, he is like Takeshi Kaneshiro.
Just now, he was like Justin Bieber.
- A tall Justin Bieber. - That's right.
Bona, you bawled...
when you were preparing for a shoot...
of "Girls' Generation 1979".
The thing is,
my character had a bob cut.
It couldn't be helped since my character was...
a student.
During the audition, the director said,
"If you get this role,"
"you will need to get a bob cut."
"Will you be able to do it?"
I didn't know I would get the job,
so I said, "I will be glad to get a haircut.."
"if you give me the role." Then I got the role.
I had really long hair.
It came down to here.
I had to get it cut up to here.
It was my first time to get a bob cut.
During the haircut, I burst into tears.
I was so sad to let it go.
I knew I would look ugly with that hair.
During the haircut, I ran into the restroom...
and cried behind the locked doors.
The hairdresser told me,
"Bona, it's okay." "Give me five minutes."
I finally calmed down and got the haircut.
Then I washed my hands. When women lean forward,
their hair cascade down.
I tried to hold my hair, but it was gone.
(Her hair was gone.)
- I cried again. - You cried again.
I calmed down and went to the dormitory.
I took a nap, used the restroom and came out.
The members were startled.
They were like, "Who are you?"
They didn't recognize you.
- It was the haircut. - I laugh about it now,
but I was really sad back then.
- It was pretty. - A bob cut suited you.
It was shocking that...
I had gotten a bob cut.
You had tried it for the first time.
It takes a long time to grow your hair out.
I heard you were touched at a shoot one time.
I was often touched by the senior actors.
I debuted as an actress...
through "Hit the Top".
Cha Tae Hyun was the producer of the drama.
I was filming the first scene...
of the first shoot.
The scene involved taking of my heels...
and walking on the rooftop.
Since I had no prior experiences,
I didn't know that...
I should have brought...
a pair of slippers.
I was monitoring the scene barefoot...
when Tae Hyun took off his shoes for me.
He told me to wear his shoes.
I was like, "It's okay."
He told me it's okay since he is wearing socks.
He gave me his sneakers.
I have always wanted to talk about it on TV,
but I haven't had the chance.
(It's a memory that is unforgettable.)
You also received a gift after the last shoot.
I don't know if I can talk about it on TV.
After the last shoot, I got in the van...
and found a Louis Vuitton passport wallet.
Who had given it to you?
Cha Tae Hyun.
It was a thank you gift to the actors.
Did he give the gift to all actors?
- Yes. - All actors?
- Was it genuine? - Yes.
It wouldn't be a counterfeit.
- Seriously. - He wouldn't do that.
This is embarrassing.
- He is on another level. - That's impressive.
I can't believe he did it for all actors.
- It's quite a feat. - That's right.
I heard that you were surprised...
by Ji Sung's kindness.
I am friends with Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young.
They have visited my place often.
This made me fall for Ji Sung.
I guess Bo Young's eyes were itchy.
When she rubbed her eyes,
Ji Sung said this.
He didn't say, "Shall I get eye drops?"
He said, "I will go and get eye drops."
He didn't even ask.
He said, "I will go and get eye drops."
Has Bo Young scolded him before?
It's plausible.
"What did I tell you?"
"I told you to buy eye drops."
There may be more to the story.
We are giving you another interpretation.
We need to see it from all aspects.
Maybe he has gotten scolded.
While it's touching,
it's not as big as I thought it would be.
I thought it would be really big.
- It's really big. - That's right.
This is the behavior that touches a woman.
Rather than a question...
It's better to say, "I will go and get them."
You should carry eye drops.
"Here you go."
You could wear a band of eye drops.
(You could wear a band of eye drops.)
The bands could form an X.
(He is a model husband.)
- Ointment, eye drops... - Band-Aid.
That's right.
- Povidone-Iodine. - That's a good one.
You can carry everything.
Eun Hye, you were touched by Lee Seo Jin.
Yes. I didn't hear this until later.
Since "Lee San, Wind of the Palace" was a hit,
a few episodes got added.
Seo Jin demanded that...
the senior actors and extras...
with small roles get a raise first.
(Take care of them first.)
He bought an expensive padded jacket...
for everyone.
He demanded that...
the others get paid first.
It was touching.
(He put the others before him.)
- It's very different... - Yes.
from how it is at the variety shows.
We tend to say, "Pay me first."
"Lower Cho Sae Ho's appearance fee."
"He got too big of a raise."
"Why do I get paid less than Sae Ho?"
(Why do I get paid less than Sae Ho?)
He speaks...
in a brusque manner...
when he is on TV.
He is mischievous and funny,
- but it doesn't show. - That's right.
He takes care of the actors...
who seem to need his help.
- He is incredible. - Even if an actor...
had a small role,
Seo Jin talked to the director...
if he was in need.
There is a reason behind his long career.
That's right.
Long live Lee Seo Jin.
Both NCT and WJSN have...
a lot of members.
- WJSN has 13 members. - That's right.
Doesn't the stage seem too small?
- That's right. - This time,
all 18 members take the stage.
- Is it okay? - Yes, it is.
Doesn't the stage seem too small?
There are stages with all 18 members.
Then there are stages for sub-units.
They sometimes choose by rock, paper, scissors.
Some members get left out.
It's humane.
NCT has that system.
WJSN stays together,
but there is a sub-unit for events...
because we can't stand in a line...
- on some stages. - That's right.
Then we get divided into two groups.
You practice for those events.
When we debuted...
Since there are 13 members,
the dance routine is very fast-paced.
- That's right. - We can't wear heels...
because we must run around.
Sometimes, the floor of the set comes up...
and the set collapses.
My goodness, it's no joke.
You should check the set first.
The stage is one thing,
but how does it work at the dormitory?
You must use bunk beds.
The thing is, we have...
three dormitories.
- They are divided up. - Three dormitories.
The members of WJSN live in one dormitory.
We used to do that.
However, sharing the restroom...
made us take forever to get ready.
That's why we live in two dormitories now.
When you lived in one dormitory,
using the restroom must have been a hassle.
Seriously.
If we were pressed for time,
we went to the sauna to wash up.
That's a solution.
It takes forever to wait for the shower,
- so we did that. - You went to the sauna.
Lucas, do you have a similar problem?
Yes. When I brush my teeth...
What do I call this?
- Toothpaste. - Toothpaste.
There are too many toothpaste.
When I am in a hurry in the morning,
I take any...
- Toothbrush. - Yes, toothbrush.
I take any toothbrush.
You used a toothbrush that isn't yours.
Then I realize, "This isn't..."
- "This isn't mine." - "This isn't mine."
(They complete his sentence together.)
This is what I realized from hearing Lucas talk.
He says he understands 70 percent of Korean,
but we do all the work for him.
Think about it.
Not many words...
come out of his mouth.
We go, "This? That?"
We do all the work.
You will know once you see this episode.
We do all the work.
I told the story about NCT's dormitories.
"Toothpaste? Toothbrush?"
You were like a member of NCT.
(He is like a new member.)
Thank you so much.
Don't mention it.
Both WJSN and NCT have...
foreign members.
There are cultural differences, no?
When I arrived in Korea for the first time,
it was really hard to say hello to people.
I wasn't used...
to bowing.
You weren't used to it.
I would say "Hi," and pass by.
The senior singers didn't like it.
(What did we see just now?)
- "Hi." - That's right.
Since I am taller,
I looked down on them...
and said, "Hi."
They might have been more offended.
Since they are shorter than you,
they might have been more offended.
- I see. - I have another story.
When I didn't know much Korean,
I called a man, "Honey".
You called a man, "Honey".
"Honey".
"Chang Jung, Honey."
"Chang Jung, Honey" has a nice ring to it.
(You can't help but fall for Lucas' charms.)
With our five guests, we had...
"Stars with Superior Genes Special".
Please tell us about your future plans.
I will release a new song before Chuseok...
- and appear on TV. - I see.
To train young artists...
like Lucas and Bona,
I founded an entertainment company.
- I began working on it. - That's incredible.
I want to train talented artists...
who will bring happiness to people.
All right.
To prepare my children for elementary school,
I had lessened my workload.
There were too many things to prepare.
Since a semester passed, I want to start over.
I want to resume working.
I will look after my husband...
as a good wife.
I will star in a good work soon.
We look forward to seeing you more often.
By the time this episode airs,
WJSN would have made a comeback.
If an opportunity arises, I will star in a drama.
