(I'm afraid of...)
(the dark tonight.)
(The 1st horror of 2018 is coming.)
(She's scarier than a ghost.)
(Kim Wan Sun, the sexy horror queen with charismatic eyes)
(The legendary story, "Give My Legs Back to Me!")
(Lee Kwang Gi, the original Korean zombie)
(She makes every song a hit with her choreography.)
(She has a bubbly smile.)
(But she turns into someone opposite in a second.)
(Bae Yoon Jung, the new master of criticism.)
(Ju Ho Min, the original story writer of "Along with the Gods")
(His school, military unit, and work...)
(are all gone after he was there.)
(Even "Infinite Challenge" and "My Little Television" are gone.)
(Is "Radio Star" going to be okay?)
(Nobody does it, so why don't we try it?)
(It's the horror episode today!)
(It begins now!)
Can I tell you a really scary story?
I've been thinking I was size medium.
But...
I found out...
my size is actually small.
What?
It's so scary.
- A lot of women will envy you. - I know, right?
- That's their forever goal. - That's what I'm saying.
I haven't drunk much alcohol because it's summer,
and I've been on a diet.
But I gained more weight somehow.
It's scary.
- I shouldn't put up more weight. - Are you extra-large?
I'm doing a lot of programs these days.
I even went abroad for one of the programs.
However, whenever I get proposals for more programs,
I'm full of excitement.
It's even scary.
What? Why are you not following the script?
- He made his own. - Are you the writer?
Why don't you get paid for that work too?
My ad-lib was scary then.
Opening lines...
- didn't really suit me. - Why don't you try it anyway?
My bank account isn't empty.
That's scarier.
(Laughing)
My bank account isn't even empty!
So I shouldn't pretend I have no money.
That's why I changed my lines.
I'm not small either.
(He's upset.)
But you are small!
I'm not, you stupid!
(It's scary that his size is not small.)
His size is large when he goes to kids clothing shops.
- I'm small and medium. - I see.
If Zo In Sung finally comes to...
Radio Star,
it will be scary.
It makes you scared just listening to our stories.
We are like a summer resort.
Tae Hyun's getting only half of his payment today.
- This is Radio Star! - Radio Star!
Today, we invited four people...
who make you scared...
with their presence.
"I'm Afraid of the Dark Tonight" begins now.
She is...
Tonight
I'm afraid of the dark
Singing that song, she stole men's hearts.
However, people said, your eyes are scarier.
It's actually scary that she's not getting old.
She's the sexy horror queen of the music industry.
Kim Wan Sun!
(The sexy horror queen of the music industry, Kim Wan Sun!)
Before Shim Eun Ha of "M"...
and before Choi Kang Hee of "Memento Mori",
he made a huge hit with his line, "Give my legs back"...
in a horror drama.
- Is that how we can compare them? - "Give my legs back!"
- I don't know. - All right...
However, he's half a century old.
He doesn't even have the energy to walk with two feet.
- He's Lee Kwang Gi! - Lee Kwang Gi!
It's so nice to see you.
- Kwang Gi, the old star... - He gained a lot of weight.
She made Brown Eyed Girls' arrogant dance and...
Girl's Day's suspenders dance.
She has the Midas Touch for choreographies for girl groups.
Girls, do you want to dance?
She is Bae Yoon Jung!
Bae Yoon Jung.
It's so sad.
Wherever he went, it all turned to ruins.
He makes everywhere scared with his presence.
He's the person of horror.
Ju Ho Min, the master of demolition.
- He's such an amazing cartoonist. - He really is.
- Welcome! - Hi.
- Hello. - Nice to see you all.
Wan Sun, say hello to our viewers.
Hello.
I never get old,
and that scares other people.
This is Kim Wan Sun.
That's amazing.
She's the first person ever who dozed off while filming Radio Star.
It was the first time ever in Radio Star's history.
- It's such a small studio though. - Seriously?
Her head moved down several times.
(Everyone was complimenting Hyo Rin.)
That's so natural and pretty.
(She's really good at dancing.)
(Yawning)
(She's yawning and talking at the same time.)
(That was a legendary moment made with her will to speak.)
Normally, if any guest want to yawn,
they do it secretly while others are speaking.
But she did it while she was talking.
(I'm not going to doze off today.)
- Kwang Gi, please say hello. - Nice to see you, Kwang Gi.
- To the viewers? - Yes.
Hello.
I'm still around thanks to my persistence.
One day, we are all going to be fine.
This is Lee Kwang Gi.
(He's overly serious from the beginning.)
She's trending so much these days.
Bae Yoon Jung, please say hello to our viewers.
Hello.
I'm here to get rid of my image as a tough woman.
I'm Bae Yoon Jung. Nice to meet you.
- She's doing so well these days. - Welcome!
He looks like a cartoon character.
- He really does. - I agree.
He looks like Shorry.
He does.
He's very cute.
Please say hello to our viewers.
Hi.
I'm the original story writer of the successful movie series,
"Along with the Gods". I'm Ju Ho Min. Nice to meet you.
He's amazing.
He made the original story of 2 movies with 10 million audiences.
- It's amazing. - "Along with the Gods" is...
He's the original story writer.
What's with your clothes? Is that an octopus?
- Yes, it is. - Are those tentacles?
- Oh, it is. - I see it too.
His head is like the octopus head.
Oh, that's why!
- Because it suits that way. - I see it now.
No, it's because I heard it's a scary episode.
In Western culture, they are afraid of cephalopods.
That's why I'm wearing this.
I realized it's quite funny though.
It really looks funny because you're wearing it.
That's an octopus look.
- Goodness. - Yes...
I found out why Wan Sun is so tired now.
She's busy working out...
and seeing someone at the same time.
I had a blind date with someone at a TV program.
- I heard that. - But...
he is...
- a personal trainer. - He's a personal trainer!
I've been saying I would work out...
around the time I met him.
And I met him.
I thought, "This is it! It's the gift from above!"
- "I should exercise." - So you're still seeing him.
So I work out with him these days.
But it was a blind date.
But Wan Sun doesn't know...
if anybody likes her or not.
She can't sense it.
I'm sure he likes you a lot.
Of course, he does, but Wan Sun is...
only interested in yawning and maybe having some gimbab.
(She misses other people's feelings because of yawning.)
She doesn't know who likes her or not.
I work out really hard these days.
Are you not interested in him at all?
- But honestly, - He's too young though.
- How old is he? - How old is he?
- He's 9 years younger than me. - 9?
But you like younger men.
I do, but will they like me back?
(She's considerate.)
We've become more like siblings these days.
There are a lot of couples like that these days.
Do you work out at the gym he's working at?
Or is he doing a private training lesson for you?
I go to the gym and work out there.
Because I need machines to work out with.
So I go.
- But I... - And you eat with him.
Yes, I do.
- There's something between them. - Why are you...
There have been a lot of celebrities like that in Hollywood.
You add a lot to her stories.
(He adds things up.)
You add a lot to her stories.
Are you going to be an MC today?
This is a lot different from the last time I was here.
(We aim to make things clear.)
When we asked for the pre-filming interview to Lee Kwang Gi,
he told everyone to meet in Paju,
when it's so hot like this.
- Do you live in Paju? - No, that's not the reason why.
I just finished building up a studio in Paju.
- Really? - Yes.
It's for commercials, music videos,
- launch shows, and... - That sounds like a huge studio!
- Is it like a big filming site? - Yes, it is.
How big is it?
It's about 500m².
And it's fully air-conditioned.
Park Mi Sun has been promoting the studio really well...
as our honorary ambassador.
Does a studio have an honorary ambassador?
But your studio is for a commercial reason in nature.
How can you name it an honorary ambassador?
- I'm not saying it is... - She is a promotion director.
Mi Sun already...
brought the whole crew of her program to our studio.
There are a lot of filming sites in Paju.
I see why you asked me if I have a rehearsal room for idol singers.
- Yes, that's why. - What?
Why would you call me?
- He's here to promote. - "Can we film Radio Star here?"
- That doesn't even make sense. - He has his purpose today.
In my opinion, even though I've only made one contract so far,
I think Park Bo Gum will come to my studio soon to film a commercial.
I mean, it's not fully decided yet.
- I'm expecting it to happen. - Right...
Well, it's up to the company that's making the commercial, not Bo Gum.
That's actually true.
It sounds like you are talking about that contract with Bo Gum.
Isn't it difficult to run a studio like that?
I mean, it's been a while since I worked in this industry.
- You've got some network too. - So I was thinking it's better...
- than running a restaurant. - You tried that too.
Seriously, give me a break.
I tried, and it wasn't easy.
Yes, I remember you opened one.
Kwang Gi said...
he's holding a photography exhibition.
- He invited me. - He's into paintings too.
- Yes, I am. - So I went there...
to see the exhibition and film there.
But he told me to buy his work.
It wasn't special or anything.
But I bought 3 of his works at 300 dollars per each.
If they were good artworks, I would have felt amazing.
But it almost felt like buying a ray leather wallet in Southeast Asia.
- So I thought... - Don't talk to me like that.
Did I force you to buy it?
You did.
I said you could buy it if you liked them.
- Only if you liked them! - But...
There are even a lot of people who don't answer your phone.
(He became lonely with his studio.)
By the way, you said...
- Goodness. - you'll make Gu Ra...
- have his wedding at your studio. - Really?
He's lonely these days.
- What's the purpose of your studio? - Who are you making me...
- It's all because of his studio. - I can't believe it.
- Isn't it a great idea? - If I want to get married again,
I would love to carefully consider many things before that happens.
But you are trying to make me...
- have a wedding there? - That's not what I mean.
Everyone says my studio is a perfect place for a small wedding.
- That's good. - They say it's pretty.
He's using various tactics to promote that place.
- Goodness. - And then I thought about you.
"Gu Ra should get married here!"
If you meet someone nice, you don't have to pay anything.
I can lend you my studio for free.
Then you'll hang my wedding pictures on the wall, won't you?
- Am I right? - No, no.
I don't want it for free.
(Mission failure)
It's been a while after Joo Woo Jae.
Bae Yoon Jung is Jong Shin's passionate fan.
- Really? - Yes, I am.
She even said,
Dancers don't like me that much in general.
Jong Shin looks like...
- the best dancer among us. - Really?
The best dancer among us?
He doesn't look serious.
I am serious.
- Really? - He dances like this too.
So I thought he would be good at dancing...
if I teach him anything.
I'm a huge fan of yours.
- When I told JeA about it, - JeA? Oh, right.
She was on the program I was in.
When I told her I like Jong Shin a lot,
she said, "Really? He's very fashionable too."
After I heard that from her, I've always checked what he wears.
- And she was right. - It's my stylist's work.
But they suit you perfectly.
He stresses out his stylist.
He really suffocates her. That's why he can...
She has to bring about 15 sets of clothes.
She also needs to bring about 100 pairs of glasses.
(They become one when they frame someone.)
Ho Min, since a lot of people recognizes who you are,
you are becoming a human thimble.
I guess people pet his head a lot.
That's not it. I've been on some TV shows.
- I was on "Infinite Challenge"... - "My Little Television"!
I mean, I'm easy to recognize.
So I started wearing a hat.
- It's been really hot these days. - It really has.
So my face got really tanned.
This part is pale but my face became really tanned.
So I became to look like a thimble.
I thought it looks weird.
So I began not to wear my hat anymore.
- My scalp is also tanned now. - Why did you shave it all?
- Do you not have much hear? - Yes, a little bit.
10 years ago, I could feel I started losing...
- my hair. So I shaved it. - Oh, that was the beginning.
It was like a one-way ticket.
- I couldn't grow my hair anymore. - I know what you mean.
That is a one-way ticket.
Wan Sun heard Ho Min...
- bought a building. - Wan Sun could even hear that?
I heard it.
- That's... - If Wan Sun did, everyone knows.
It's not true.
- Really? - When I was on "Video Star"...
- on Kim Poong. - Oh, "Video Star".
We were talking about how well "Along with the Gods" did.
Kim Poong said, "He can even..."
- "buy a building with the money." - He exaggerated it.
But Lee Mal Nyeon said,
you have 3 cars and 3 properties.
That's really not true.
- Three properties though... - That's so not true.
Properties? I have one house.
- That was a rumor then. - I see.
- But it's... - So you are keeping the cash.
(A rumor in progress)
How did you get paid for the movie this time?
- Any incentives? - Many people think it went well.
Many people think that way.
But I get paid...
when the 1st and the 2nd movies are done with screening,
and everything that's happening abroad is wrapped up.
- That's when you get paid. - Yes.
- Really? - That late?
It's because we filmed both movies at the same time.
I guess it will be nice to be friends with him next year.
- Goodness. - Excuse me,
he has a lot of people around him already.
You have to work on it from now.
- That's true. - It should start now.
Tell him to buy a painting.
I'll approach when it's the right time.
I have a lot of paintings at home because my dad is a painter.
- That's good to know! - No!
He would have called you for real if you didn't say that.
(Such a great defense)
Ho Min is the original...
story writer of "Along with the Gods".
You thought about a different actor...
for Tae Hyun's role at first.
- Originally, - Did you cast the actors?
No, but it was just some ideas...
when I heard it was going to be filmed.
The actor I thought about at first was...
Jung Seok Yong.
- Jung Seok Yong? - Yes.
He looks so much like Ja Hong from his cartoon.
He looks like that role.
When Tae Hyun got cast as Ja Hong,
were you like,
"What is this?"
(Why is it Cha Tae Hyun?)
You could've said that.
Did you not think that way at all? "Why is it Cha Tae Hyun?"
I was really happy.
The movie was made...
5 or 6 years after my casting idea.
- It takes a long time to film. - So...
actors get old too.
I thought Ja Hong was about 40 years old.
- He was about that age then. - I didn't think about...
Tae Hyun then because he was too young.
I thought Tae Hyun could do well for that role.
Ja Hong in my cartoon has a face of white paper.
I think Tae Hyun's face is...
like that too.
When you're with non-celebrities, you really stand out.
- But when you are with actors, - Is that an insult?
- you look normal. I'm sorry. - That's a compliment.
- That's a compliment for an actor. - You mean...
I thought his face was something I can draw anything on.
He's like a blank paper.
(His face is a blank paper.)
Yoon Jung, you said...
you want to give Gook Jin some money when you meet him.
- Why? - I didn't know she's critical.
- What do you mean? - What about the money?
When I first set up my choreography team, I had really hard times.
Nothing worked out, and I didn't even have enough money to pay rent.
Then we got to make the choreography for Kara's "Pretty Girl".
When they asked for us to do that job,
we brought some ideas from Gook Jin's movement.
- Oh, that one! - Oh!
He talked about it a lot too.
- That move was a hit. - Oh, I remember that.
That's how my team got bigger.
He needs to get paid.
Can you buy me clothes that are small-sized?
- I will. - Show us, Gook Jin.
- This. - I will.
(Yes!)
Can you show us the dance move?
(How was it adapted?)
When they sing, "Yeah, yeah, yeah",
Gook Jin does it like this, but we made it more like a dance move.
(Fit it to the rhythm!)
- That's right. - Cool.
(The choreography with Gook Jin's soul.)
(The familiar movement and facial expression)
- Was it really his move? - Yes, it was.
How did you think about that all of a sudden?
Choreographers get ideas from everywhere.
I get ideas from a lot of things.
It's not just me.
Brown Eyed Girls' arrogant dance was from...
stretching the pelvis.
- That was amazing. - Kara's hip dance was...
from guys in the club...
trying to flirt with girls with their hips.
Do you think you can make...
anything out of Kwang Gi's "Give my legs back"?
- She doesn't look happy. - Is there...
- I mean, you can think about it. - I could...
I don't think it can be connected to other moves though.
I agree. That won't work.
Yoon Jung is the number one choreographer for girl groups.
- Can we see your own choreography? - Let's see it.
We'll take a look at Yoon Jung's choreography.
("Bo Peep Bo Peep" by T-ara)
This is T-ara's "Bo Peep Bo Peep".
(Dancing)
- I see. - This one?
(Even Tae Hyun remembers this addicting dance routine.)
- She came up with this. - That's right.
(Shaking)
She's very good.
(Her choreography maximized the cuteness of T-ara.)
That's Kara.
("Mister" by Kara)
- This one was the dance... - Remember this? It was amazing.
- Women used this to flirt with men. - That's right.
- I remember this. - We're seeing the original routine.
- She's the expert. - That's very cool.
("Expect" by Girl's Day)
This is Girl's Day's song.
- It's "Expect". - I see. "Expect".
(It became a sexy suspender dance routine with Yoon Jung.)
And what's next?
- She's the best indeed. - This is Brown Eyed Girls.
It's "Abracadabra".
- This is the famous dance. - I love this.
My goodness, Tae Hyun. "Abracadabra".
- An exercise was the inspiration. - This is "Abracadabra".
This choreography suits her the best.
- Her facial expression works too. - Yes, she's so cool.
- Gosh, this is EXID's song. - This one too?
("Up and Down" by EXID)
She did this too?
- She created the dance for this. - She's the best.
(This dance routine helped EXID succeed.)
(It made everyone's hearts go up and down.)
- She created this routine too. - Gosh, this is amazing.
It's "Pick Me".
- She made this one too? - I see.
How many did she make?
- Most of idol singers go to her. - Probably.
(A movement with her foot...)
Koo Jun Yup was on our show only a while ago.
- Right. - She'll get another offer soon.
(Yoon Jung, the creator of choreography for girl groups)
- Thank you. - My goodness.
Gosh, that was...
- hard. - How many hits did you create?
10 songs?
- She made the dance for the songs. - Seriously. About 10 songs.
By the way, I know all of her dance routines.
- Songs could have been... - The choreography...
- bigger hits because of her dance. - Exactly.
I think choreography...
- should have copyrights too. - Yes, it should.
- Only songs have copyrights. - I agree.
- Dance is a crucial part of hits. - That's right.
This is a bit embarrassing...
because the dance routines are nice when idol singers make it look cute.
- It's embarrassing that I did it. - No, no. That's not true.
- They wear costumes too. - You did well.
- I was a bit embarrassed. - That was excellent.
- Thank you. - When I was watching her,
my thought that dance was the most important...
- for upbeat music was reinforced. - Exactly.
- I realized that again. - Choreography matters.
For dance routines for these hits,
can you make them in a day or so?
For the songs, I danced to just now,
- I made the key parts in a day. - After you got the song.
To be honest, it's hard to make one for a company with a lot of demands.
Do they make demands?
- When there are a lot of demands... - The song sounded very sexy,
- but they wanted a cute routine. - There are many demands.
So it's better if there are no demands, right?
Yes, when they trust us and let us do our job,
we'd create a routine for the song.
- When they kept asking to revise... - They should trust you.
the routine, it got ruined.
All right. It's about Ho Min.
You were a fan of Gu Ra when he was known to be cruel.
A lot of comic book artists are my fans. Kim Poong is one of them.
- I liked him a long time ago. - He was my fan.
Back then when he was really harsh?
- Yes, that phase. - Do you miss it?
No.
(Past is just the past.)
You even exchanged emails with Gu Ra?
In the end of 2004, I was discharged from the military.
It was when I just started my career as a comic book artist.
Gu Ra was pretty active by then.
- On the website... - I was on a radio show at KBS.
Right. He started in 2003.
- You were on "Song Square". - That's right.
I wrote a post on his website, introducing myself...
and how I was trying to become a comic book artist.
I asked them to check out my work.
On the visitors' book...
(There was a reply on the visitors' book.)
- Gu Ra wrote a reply. - Really?
He wrote, "This is all I could tell you."
- "Do your best. I hope you draw..." - Right, right.
- "good comics". - You were pretty nice.
- That was nothing. - He took care of his fans well.
It's not that.
- After that, - You were cool.
- I worked hard for a year. - I didn't know Gu Ra could be nice.
I got to publish my own comics.
I was really happy. Then I remembered about the post.
I sent my story to the radio show he was hosting back then.
I wrote that his encouragement in the beginning helped me a lot.
- Sure enough, - He read your story.
he read the story and liked my story.
A novice artist who used to be your fan back then...
drew "Along with the Gods" that 2.5 million people watched.
That's great, you know.
You must've worked hard past these years.
- Thank you. - After this,
he's more successful than you.
- I'm doing my best too. - Back then...
- It's nice to meet like this. - Right.
- Thank you for your encouragement. - It's nice.
It makes both of us look very cool. I like this.
(This feel-good story about him pleases him.)
In the beginning of Gu Ra's career,
he met up with a lot of his fans.
For example, when he gets a call from an unknown number,
- he can't stand not knowing. - Of course not.
- Do you not have an agent? - Is that true?
- I have one. - He has an agent.
- But you'd still call back? - Yes, I...
- take care of things on my own too. - He'd call. If it's a prank call,
he'd scold the kid. Sometimes, he'd reason with the kid.
I don't scold them.
- I only reason with them. - You'd do that.
This is how I think.
These days, the recording technique has improved.
If I reason with them, it would circulate as a good story.
That happens.
(He plants seeds of his feel-good stories here and there.)
This is about Kwang Gi.
You know Tae Hyun's embarrassing past.
I wouldn't say it's an embarrassing past.
- It was when Tae Hyun was young. - It just said when I was young.
- How does it become embarrassing? - What is this about?
- He was diligent from the start. - When he was young...
And the older actors and actresses adored him very much.
There was a celebrity soccer team.
I was playing soccer...
with Sunwoo Jae Duk, Lee Han Wi, and other members.
We used to play soccer in Nonhyeon-dong every morning.
- At 6:30am. - Right, at 6:30am.
- Did you force yourself to play? - He was always there early.
No, I went to play soccer as an exercise.
- He got there early. - He'd bring water bottles.
- Really? - He'd pass out water too.
He also did his best when he played soccer.
- I see. - But Kwang Gi and I weren't...
- that different back then. - That's right.
That's not true. I was a treasurer back then.
Yes, you were a treasurer.
- Remember I was the treasurer? - But you weren't that different.
- He thinks you two were the same. - He didn't come out that often.
It sounds like why a young member pretended to be otherwise.
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star...
with guests you might be scared of to see in your dreams.
We'll start today's special, "I'm Afraid of the Dark Tonight".
Wan Sun had the eyes.
- The eyes? - Yes, the eyes.
You didn't know that your eyes could be scary.
I didn't know when I was young.
When I got older,
- I'd watch my past TV shows. - Right.
I found out...
for the first time then.
- I realized my eyes did look scary. - But that was your charm.
- Right. Her eyes made her popular. - If you didn't have those eyes,
- Some people say that... - you wouldn't have been attractive.
80 percent of Wan Sun's charms are the eyes.
Can you make the facial expression from that era?
- Observe it calmly. - Even when she smiles...
- Be calm. - Let me prepare myself.
(She gets ready and shoots.)
I remember. Yes, right.
- Your eyes looked fiercer then. - Like this? You think so?
- With this look... - You've gotten softer.
With this look, if she's in front of someone else's house,
people would be so startled.
- "Tonight" was phenomenal. - I do look scary.
I hope people would get the chills.
(She hopes her eyes would do that.)
When it's summer, Kwang Gi shows up in this footage.
"Give back my leg."
What was the title?
- Deokdae Valley Special. - It was "Hometown Legends".
- Deokdae Valley. - Deokdae Valley.
- I see. "Hometown Legends". - It was in "Hometown Legends".
When you were filming that, you almost lost your leg.
Nowadays, the technology for CG has improved a lot and all.
Back then, everything was manually done.
When it had to rain in the scene, the sprinkler trucks would come...
and sprinkle water.
There were no body doubles back then.
Now, there are doubles.
- Back then, I wasn't popular... - Right.
to have a double.
- Right. That's precise. - When was this one filmed?
The director of the show said,
"Kwang Gi, you're the main character."
"Do your best. If you do well,"
"I'm sure you'd get offers for better shows."
"Kwang Gi, run. Run, run."
Then I'd say, "Okay" and run.
He'd go, "Run faster. Faster."
"Fall. Fall! Fall!"
I had to fall then.
I had to fall the moment he said to fall.
Say that I fell about 0.1 second later.
"Stop. Let's do it again."
- "Kwang Gi," - When he gave you the cue.
"you should fall when I told you to fall."
"Kwang Gi, do well this time."
"On standby. Cue."
"All right. Run faster. Run faster, faster."
I'd run only on one of my legs.
It was really hard.
I ran on only 1 leg. My legs was tied for 5 days.
- He did that for five days. - I untied the string.
- Did you tie it like this? - Because you got a leg cramp?
- I had to tie it around my leg. - He had to tie it like that.
- I should've untied it off camera. - You couldn't stretch your leg.
- Of course. - I didn't have an agent back then.
- I didn't have an agent. - What a fool.
- It was annoying to untie it. - Wait.
- For four days, I sat like this... - Before you went to sleep.
before I went to sleep.
- It became a habit. - Yes, it became a habit.
When I untied it...
(He untied it after the shoot.)
The moment I was on my two feet...
- Did it feel weird? - it felt uncomfortable.
Walking on two feet felt uncomfortable.
- I get what you mean. - Right?
Exactly. I was on both of my feet.
- You had a leg tied the whole time. - I even fell.
It felt like I had lost one of my legs.
(This is the real life version of the line, "Give me back my leg.")
- Kwang Gi, demonstrate for us. - He kept...
- But he gained weight after that. - It's one of your major works.
- Male ghosts aren't scary. - It's not my major work.
- It wasn't his major work. - It's "Taejo Wang Geon".
- His major work is... - Or it's "Jeong Do Jeon".
(Laughing)
- How did I end up here? - It's been 34 years.
- I had my leg tied up like this. - "Give me back my leg."
Yun Yu Seon was running away from me.
I'd go,
"Give me back my leg. Give it back. My leg!"
"My leg, my leg!"
When he told me to fall, I went...
(Falling)
- I fell like this. - That's how you fell?
But ghosts aren't supposed to fall. Was it a comedy show?
No, it's not a comedy show.
How could "Hometown Legends" be a comedy show?
It's a long time ago.
My line...
was just "Give me back my leg" from start to finish.
Yoon Jung was on an audition program.
You said very cold-heartedly, "So Hye, you want to be a singer?"
When you said that to her, it became the talk of the town.
Right, right.
(So Hye,)
(you want to be a singer?)
(Looking scary)
But you weren't trying to come across as scary.
I was really curious...
because she couldn't sing or dance well.
- I... Right. - You asked out of curiosity.
I gave her a mission on the show.
She couldn't finish the mission that day.
I was wondering if she applied to really become a singer.
I asked because I was curious.
People misunderstood that I was being harsh on her.
- Did So Hye improve at the end? - Yes.
That's why I cried.
After I asked her if she truly wanted to become a singer,
- she practiced all night long. - Really? I see.
When I went to check the next day...
- She was completely different. - Yes.
(After checking the choreography,)
(Yoon Jung burst into tears as she was unexpectedly moved.)
- It had a good influence on her. - People said that...
I was acting.
People said that I poked my own eyes to cry and that I was acting.
But dancers would know.
The fact that an inexperienced pulled that off over a night...
- means she practiced a lot. - She must've practiced hard.
After seeing that, I choked up and ended up crying.
She became one of the final members.
- She debuted as a singer? - That's right.
- You must feel proud. - I was very proud.
Ho Min is famous as the Greatest Destroyer.
You said that you were sick of this reputation.
Some people might not know.
- Elaborate on it, please. - The Greatest Destroyer.
In hindsight,
a lot of places that I used to go disappeared
- That's where the name comes from. - Yes, yes.
The first time it happened was...
- I majored in Animation. - I see.
I was going to resume my studies after my military duty.
When I was gone, my department disappeared.
- I see. - Departments get disbanded.
And the division I got discharged from was disbanded.
- Really? - Why did that happen?
- And I got a job... - Division 273?
at a big supermarket.
- It was a French retailer. - I see. Carrefour.
After going there for three months, the branch in Korea was shut down.
- That's unbelievable. - Really?
I started posting my comics...
- You started your comics. - on a foreign website.
- It was on Yahoo. - Yahoo?
I see.
- Did they stop their service too? - The Korean branch closed down.
- It closed down. - I see.
- A lot of things got closed down. - He's the expert in that area.
One day, I put together a list and uploaded it...
- on my social media as a joke. - You posted that.
That's when you became the Greatest Destroyer.
No, I wasn't the Greatest Destroyer then.
One time, I took a photo in front of the Blue House for a shoot.
A week after that, the news about the tablet...
- I see. The Tablet Incident. - broke out.
- That's right. - And the whole scandal began.
Seriously?
- The impeachment protest began. - Right.
- I can't believe it. - I posted that online.
- That was combined with the list. - It was combined together.
That made headlines. Ever since then...
If Ho Min is involved...
People said that everywhere I went,
things got destroyed.
Do you want to invite him to your studio?
(Shaking his head)
I can't do that because I went all-in with this studio.
If this is destroyed, I can't ever get back up.
I can't get back up. Don't come.
(Don't come.)
(The Greatest Destroyer can't come.)
Is there anything that recently got destroyed?
I went to the indoor playground for kids a while ago.
- That place too? - It closed down.
- Do you have kids? - Yes, I do.
- You used to go there? - I just went there.
- Can Radio Star survive? - Did it close down?
A while ago, the writer asked me...
- if Radio Star would be okay. - Gosh, the playground for kids.
I starred on "Infinite Challenge" and "My Little Television" as well.
(We hope Radio Star would survive.)
But "Along with the Gods" was a hit.
That's why when I did interviews,
people told me not to attend the screening.
People told me that a lot.
- Your curse was broken with that. - That's too cruel.
At that time, I was quite arrogant.
I said that I was going to destroy the record of hits.
- That's what I said. - It all worked out.
If the movie wasn't a hit,
it would've been really embarrassing.
Did you go to the screening for the movie?
- I did. I went to the screening. - It was based on his comics.
Here's a thing about Ho Min.
Because of his reputation as the Greatest Destroyer,
he had his fortune read recently.
Did you get an unexpected sign from your fortune?
Yes, I did.
It's not that places close down because I go there.
- Did the fortune-teller close down? - Well...
No, that didn't happen.
The fortune-teller said I escape the places before they close down.
- It's like... - That's amazing.
- They were bound to close down. - That's right.
It means that we can just follow Ho Min.
- Then we'd survive. - That's right.
- Then we'd definitely survive. - Right.
In hindsight,
a lot of places I worked at and websites I posted my comics...
were companies from abroad.
I started there when they were all trying to pull out of Korea.
- He can't make Yahoo close down. - That's right.
- Of course not. - They must've had their reasons.
- Right. It's all a coincidence. - "Along with the Gods"...
Which division were you in during your military duty?
It was in Paju. It was Brigade 101.
A lot of units there were disbanded.
- I saw that happen. - A lot of them are gone now.
There are a lot of empty divisions.
- Exactly. - Won't you have your exhibit there?
(His dream about Paju can't be destroyed.)
Wan Sun, when people just saw your looks,
you heard a lot of people saying that you were delinquent...
and that you used to be quite wild.
When I made my debut, I got that a lot.
- A lot of people misunderstood. - There were rumors too.
Was there someone who passed out...
- after seeing you in person? - No, this person was frightened.
- "Frightened"? - I mean...
Passing out and being frightened sounds very different.
- It was just being scared. - That person would faint.
- Fainting would be the next step. - Right.
- Did someone get frightened? - Yes.
This one time, I was going to have an interview at my house.
The reporter had come to my house.
As soon as she saw me,
she stepped back and looked really shocked.
I asked her what was wrong.
- She said that I was scary. - Really?
I asked her why I looked scary.
At that time, I was flustered too.
She must've gone there knowing that she was interviewing you.
Yes, she knew.
- She was scared even after knowing? - But the thing is...
- when she saw me... - That's what happened?
When she saw me in person, I guess I must've...
- looked scary. - She must've liked you a lot.
- Wan Sun said she was scared. - No, no.
- Her face really turned pale. - But the thing is...
(The reporter's face turned pale.)
Kwang Gi wears around a tool set that comes with...
a saw, pincers, and knives in his neighborhood.
I like going camping, you know.
Since I like going camping,
- You always carry it around. - there's a kit I always take.
It has pincers, screwdriver, and wine opener among other things.
The kit is very practical.
- When someone needs something, - That's right.
I can take out my tool and help him out.
If there's a screw,
I would get my tool and loosen the screw.
- I can see that. - Right.
I end up doing those things...
- because people need help. - You're a good guy.
When I wear the kit around,
- Does it feel rewarding? - it feels rewarding.
- I feel reassured. - You must feel reassured.
It feels like no one can look down on me.
- Kwang Gi has a trailer. - I would grill pork belly too.
I got rid of the trailer.
- You did? - I sold it.
I spent a lot of money to build the studio.
- It must've been costly. - By the way, on his trailer,
I filmed a camping show with Kwang Gi and Dong Hyun.
After I finished, he called me.
"Talk to the writer, and try to get me a lot for the appearance fee."
He asked me that.
Hey, why would you say that on TV?
- Why would you say that on TV? - I told him that it was up to them.
"You should tell the writer. I have the whole camping equipment."
He said no one else, but I could bring it up.
- Hey. - He's reacting to your story.
(His coughing is to stop Gu Ra from talking.)
- Hey, don't mention that. - What is this?
Why would you talk about that?
These are the only memories I have with you.
- Kwang Gi. - Why do we have only such memories?
Try to tell them good stories about me.
These kinds of things are the only memories I have of you.
(They ought to go on a trip with just the two of them.)
This is why my wife doesn't like you.
Whenever I star on a show with you,
she tells me to not talk about such things.
A while ago, your wife seemed happy...
- when I gave her allowance. - Listen.
- She was faking her expression. - What?
A long time ago, when I went around with Dong Hyun,
my friends gave him a lot of allowances.
When I see kids, I give them some pocket money as well.
- I gave them some money. - Right.
When I try to give them some pocket money,
usually, parents would try to turn it down,
but Kwang Gi never does that.
(Kwang Gi never turns down money.)
- "You don't have to give us money." - Right.
- He never says something like that. - Does he accept it right away?
- He turns around when I give money. - Hey.
If this is how you'll mention it, don't give my kid money.
- Have you given Dong Hyun money? - I've given him a lot.
- I gave him money whenever we met. - He gave a lot of money.
- Usually, when you give money... - I gave him a lot of money.
- You gave him a lot of money? When? - I made sure I gave him some money.
- I gave him money whenever we met. - What are you talking about?
- You're being too cruel. - Did Dong Hyun tell you he did?
- It's not that. - He likes me more than his dad...
because I'm good to him.
- He likes you more than his dad? - More than me?
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.
- That was wrong of me. - He asked what you were up to now.
He asked me what you've been up to these days.
Dong Hyun might worry.
(Dong Hyun might worry, so let's stop here.)
Yoon Jung is scary to look at.
- She's not scary in person. - I'm not, right?
You said there are reasons behind your scary appearance.
I see.
When I was young, there were no female dancers.
That's why I ended up working with male dancers.
- You had to follow their rules. - Right.
- I was beaten up just like the men. - Really?
- Really? - I received the same treatment.
If I couldn't endure it, I had to quit.
I endured it because I really wanted to dance.
The more time it passed,
the more I felt that I was being looked down because of my gender.
- That's what I had felt. - She was in a minority group.
I started to act and talk...
just like the guys.
I made them feel uncomfortable around me.
That's how I sort of defended myself when I was young.
- It was a survival mechanism. - Yes.
- She had to survive. - After that,
until this day,
the owners or executives feel...
- They feel uneasy around you. - uncomfortable around me.
- It's easier when it comes to work. - That's true.
But actually,
you said now, you look way more approachable than before.
- I didn't have double eyelids. - Compared to before.
- So... - I see.
I didn't get this surgery to look pretty.
- I wanted to look kind. - To look kind.
- You got the double eyelid surgery? - Yes.
- My surgery went really well. - I thought those were yours.
(She's utterly satisfied.)
- It was a successful surgery. - I say this because...
- I do agree it was very successful. - no one knows if I don't tell them.
It went really well.
(Yoon Jung looks 10 times kinder.)
Yoon Jung, you said that during your preliminary interview,
you had gotten much gentler.
But you asked to fight someone in real life.
If I could...
- Whom were you trying to fight? - When I hear some things...
- It's from my social media. - Like online haters?
I can laugh off the mean comments and don't care about them much.
- But the comments get personal. - Right.
- Some comments make you angry. - Then you ask to meet?
I tell them to visit me.
I'd send them my address, so they can visit me.
I tell them we should talk face to face.
- I bet they don't come. - Has anyone come?
No. They apologize and say that they were careless.
Have you ever visited them?
When I want to visit them, I ask, "Let's meet up. Where do you live?"
Then they don't reply.
(Don't write malicious comments if you don't want to meet her.)
Ho Min, although you like horror webtoon,
you can't draw it.
I have a friend who draws horror webtoon.
When you draw horror webtoon for 2 to 3 years,
- you grow weary... - It's understandable.
from thinking about horrible things every week.
- It comes out in your daily life. - That's right.
I was having a meal with him...
when he suddenly went, "Doesn't this look like a brain?"
You like watching horror movies.
I like watching horror movies, but I am very faint-hearted.
I can't watch them alone.
When my wife is with me, I ask, "Can I watch a horror movie?"
- I always ask. - You have to watch it with her.
I watched an animated movie...
in which a potato turns into a pig.
- I am serious. - That doesn't sound scary.
- What? - Is that scary?
Isn't that scary?
It's a pig-shaped potato.
(Laughing)
I love brutal movies.
Me, too.
- Slasher movies. - Slasher movies.
Slasher movies.
Intestines.
I get scared of ghosts of the East.
I bet you can't watch "Ju-on: The Grudge".
Don't even mention it.
Tae Hyun doesn't listen when I tell scary stories.
- Ghosts of the East. - Ghosts of Japan.
Yoon Jung, you can't listen to ghost stories either.
- No, I can't. - You are like Tae Hyun.
- I can't watch ghost movies. - I hate ghosts.
Ghost movies are the scariest.
I am scared of ghosts the most.
- Have you seen a ghost? - No, I haven't.
Then how do you know they are scary?
- I know the terrifying sensation. - You now the sensation.
- The sounds scare me. - The sounds?
I hate it when someone scares me or pops balloons.
- I hate it when balloons pop. - Yes.
Has a ghost asked your number?
You said you can't watch ghost movies.
In high school, I went to the haunted house...
- at an amusement park. - I see.
I didn't react much to the part-timers...
because I had no fear when I was young.
Although my friends screamed,
I only stared and walked away. One ghost came out after me.
- A ghost did. - He asked for my pager number.
My goodness.
A new drama titled "Kingdom" comes out this year.
It's a period drama about zombies. I heard it's really scary.
A period drama about zombies? I love zombies.
You like zombies. Isn't the sound satisfying...
- when zombies get stabbed? - That's right.
- My goodness. - I can't guess her tastes.
That's like, "I eat tonkatsu, but I don't eat pork."
"I eat pork rind, but I don't eat pork neck."
- I am a fan of zombie movies. - They are satisfying.
(The ghosts will be sad to learn about her favoritism.)
These days, variety shows don't go...
- to haunted houses. - They are really scary.
Haven't you gone once on "One Night Two Days"?
I have. I practically die every time it happens.
Kwang Gi, you said you saw things that weren't human...
when you were in a period drama.
Did it happen because you were too absorbed in acting?
No, it didn't. After the shoot,
Korean Folk Village goes completely dark...
because all the lights go out.
(It goes completely dark at night.)
- It must be scary. - Also,
the cars are in the parking lot.
It's a long distance from the set.
When you walk,
you feel okay at first.
Then you feel chills down your spine.
- That's when you begin to sing. - That's right.
I would go...
(Let's smile, smile)
You are singing your song.
- Seriously. - He remembered to promote it.
That's right.
As I kept walking,
I continued to feel chills down my spine.
- "Is someone there?" - He is acting.
We do that when we are scared.
- It gets scarier if you do that. - It does.
I heard a strange sound.
- You heard a strange sound. - That's right.
Then I saw someone run past me.
I think I know where this story is going.
What do you know?
I think I know how this story will end.
Have you been inside my head?
- Keep going. - Keep going.
- You tell the story. - Go ahead.
Wasn't it a person going to the restroom?
No, it wasn't.
You are lying, aren't you?
I bet he is changing the story.
You are changing the story, aren't you?
- No, I am not. - Then what was it?
- Then what was it? - Finish the story.
- Finish the story. - He was going to the restroom.
- Who was the person? - Was he running to move the car?
(That person was...)
- He is thinking. - He is thinking.
Who was that person?
That person was...
an extra who was in the shoot.
There are so many paths...
at Korean Folk Village.
We got surprised by each other.
He ran in one direction...
and I ran in the other direction. People are the scariest.
So I was more or less right.
- Are you laughing at me? - No.
It's not like that.
My goodness.
Wan Sun saw a ghost once.
It passed by very quickly.
- Yes. it did. - Did it saw Wan Sun...
and run away?
- The ghost must have been startled. - That's right.
It was the first and the last time it happened.
From the living room,
I could see the door of my sibling's room...
at the end of the hallway.
I was talking to my friend on the sofa...
when I looked in that direction without thinking.
I saw someone...
walk into the room.
That person wore a white top...
and shorts.
She had long limbs.
- She wasn't your sister. - She wore a sleeveless top.
She seemed like a pretty woman.
It was very late at night.
My sister is chubby.
I thought to myself, "She isn't my sister."
"Why did she walk towards the bed?"
I stopped talking to my friend and said,
"Young Sun, someone went into your room."
My sister was so startled that she ran out of her room.
- She became startled. - Yes, she became startled.
It happened so fast that I couldn't be sure.
The next day,
my sister brought a friend...
who can see ghosts.
Someone like an exorcist.
My sister asked...
- if there is a ghost in the room. - A ghost.
Tae Hyun is hilarious.
- He is scared. - So...
her friend looked around the room...
and opened the closet.
She saw...
a crouching girl inside.
- Really? - Yes.
- I... - I heard "A crouching girl".
How annoying!
Here is the interesting part. My sister hadn't told her friend...
about what the ghost is wearing.
She simply asked her to see if there is a ghost in the room.
However, her friend said the ghost is wearing...
a white sleeveless top and shorts.
- She saw a ghost inside the room. - That happening...
made me wonder if there really are ghosts...
because her description of the ghost...
matched what I had seen.
Maybe it was a popular look among the ghosts.
It was a young girl.
- I couldn't believe it. - Didn't you feel scared?
I didn't feel scared.
You simply thought, "There is a ghost."
She is bold.
It seems like it is out of touch with reality.
So...
I heard ghosts can't do anything physical.
They can't push the living. They are simply visible.
Ho Min, in the preliminary interview,
you said a horror story that features a ghost is cheap.
- That's right. These days, - Ghosts are out of fashion.
popular stories are short...
and devoid of ghosts.
Those stories are scary when you think about them.
- Can you give us an example? - Here is one.
There was a tunnel...
where ghosts were rumored to be seen.
Three girls had to pass through it after school.
Because they were scared,
they held hands...
- and ran through the tunnel. - They came out.
- I like how short this is. - They blurted out at the same time,
"It was less scary because I was in the middle."
- All three of them said that. - That's right.
- That's a good one. - It's scary.
I think "Memories of Murder" is the scariest. A murderer...
is on the loose.
- I have a similar story. - That's the scariest.
There was a watermelon field in the countryside.
Since so many watermelons got stolen,
the farmer came up with an idea.
He put up a sign that read,
"One of the watermelons contain potassium cyanide."
The next day, he came to the field and saw...
that no watermelon was missing. He applauded his idea.
Then he saw more writing on the sign.
It read,
(Coming up)
(What's the ending of the story that surprised everyone?)
(DMZ? The U.S. troops that were pulled out?)
(What happened?)
(Why did Gu Ra disappear?)
(These stories are coming up.)
There was a watermelon field in the countryside.
Since so many watermelons got stolen,
the farmer came up with an idea.
He put up a sign that read,
"One of the watermelons contains potassium cyanide."
The next day, he came to the field...
and saw...
that no watermelon was missing.
He applauded his idea.
Then he saw more writing on the sign.
It read,
"Now, two watermelons do."
- My goodness. - That's scary.
"Now, two watermelons contain potassium cyanide."
What do you do then?
- The farmer must be upset. - The watermelon field is over.
- That's right. - All watermelons must be discarded.
That was the story.
My goodness.
People are the scariest.
- That's right. - People are the scariest.
One time,
my house got robbed.
- When I went inside, - Your house got robbed.
my room was in a mess.
The drawers were open...
and the pots were turned upside down.
Even the mattress was thrown off the bed.
I was confused at first.
Then I realized that my house got robbed.
On the dresser...
in the bedroom,
I had stored watches, necklaces, and rings...
- in... - A jewelry box.
Yes, I had put them in a jewelry box.
It was funny because the robber took only the authentic pieces.
He threw the inexpensive ones...
- on the floor. - Robbers know at a glance.
Also,
the robber left a pair of earrings.
When you open a jewelry box,
there are separate sections for earrings and a necklace.
The earrings and a necklace were a set.
I liked the necklace,
but I never liked the earrings.
Seeing that the robber had left the earrings, I said,
"It would have been nice..."
"if the robber had left the necklace."
I muttered that to myself.
Then I went out in the living room...
and talked to the police officers.
When I came back to the bedroom,
I saw that...
(What happened in the bedroom?)
the necklace was in the jewelry box.
(What?)
The earrings were gone instead.
(Peek-a-boo)
(He hates it.)
The earrings were gone instead.
(Wan Sun has a seizure and Kwang Gi's mouth drops open.)
(Screaming)
(Oh, my goodness.)
(Trembling)
(Tae Hyun is the most startled one.)
(A ghost is a must for the horror special.)
- That startled me. - What is going on?
(Crying)
I didn't see that coming.
- That startled me. - The ghost become startled...
by me.
- She is a scriptwriter, right? - Yes.
(What was that?)
The ghost became startled by me.
That look...
(You are wrong.)
That look is the scariest.
It's a traditional look for a ghost.
Here is something funny.
When the set turned dark,
Wan Sun looked the scariest.
Even now, Wan Sun looked the scariest.
(Horror)
Wan Sun looked the scariest.
They usually drop a doll from the ceiling.
The hissing sound got me.
- It got me, too. - The sound was scary as well.
You were scared, right?
- I was scared to death! - We are scared of different things.
Are you happy that you startled us?
It looks like you are satisfied with yourself.
- I was so startled. - Who was it?
- Was it a scriptwriter? - Isn't my story scary?
- It's scary. - It's scary.
The robber was inside the room.
The robber is admirable.
He or she heard you in hiding...
and looked for the necklace...
- to put it back. - That's right.
The robber must be Wan Sun's fan.
Then he or she shouldn't have robbed her.
Wan Sun lost everything.
(He has a point.)
- Wan Sun. - Will we talk about her album now?
(What is up with the next question?)
We all need to make a living.
It's scary to release an album only to see it flop.
- Are you working on an album? - For you, it's a movie.
I have continued...
- to release singles. - You released them digitally.
She releases songs endlessly.
It's better to release singles regularly...
than to release an album.
Recently,
I released a song titled "Tonight".
Around the beginning of September, another song will come out.
I have a concert planned at the end of the year.
It will take place in Busan and Seoul.
- You must take care of your health. - That's right.
It will keep you from yawning.
(It will keep you from yawning.)
(I will work hard.)
Even the original girl crush, Wan Sun...
becomes meek in front of a man she likes.
When you like someone, you can't even meet his eyes.
- Aren't most people like that? - You are right.
If I see that person, I run away.
- That's right. - Some people are more forward.
Are people with type B blood like that?
Is there someone who catches your eyes?
- The trainer... - I want to introduce her to a man.
Is there someone?
- I mean... - Is there?
- Tell us about him. - In my life,
- no one has said that to me. - I want to do that for her.
- Is there someone? - Yes, there is.
I will introduce you to a nice man if an opportunity arises.
- Is the age difference okay? - How big of an age difference?
Is he older than her?
- Hold on. - He is older than her.
- Is he over 60 years old? - He looks like he is in his 50s.
(He looks like he is in his 50s.)
- My goodness. - What?
- He is in his 60s. - Hold on.
- She wants someone younger! - You need to be frank with us.
That means he was born in the 50s.
If you keep it vague,
people will imagine an age difference of 3 or 4 years.
You need to be frank.
- She wants someone younger. - He is between 55 and 60.
- He is between 55 and 60. - Yes.
He must be 59 years old.
He is around that age.
However, he looks young because he lives young.
I see.
I suddenly feel hot.
(She finally opens her mouth.)
Doesn't it feel uncomfortable to be introduced to someone?
No, no.
The thing is...
Mr. Lee Kwang Gi...
Didn't you know his name before?
- Lee Kwang Gi. - Lee Kwang Gi.
It must be exciting to know that...
I will introduce her to a man.
(Are you sure about that?)
No one has told me that...
he or she wants to introduce me...
- to a man. - Really?
- Yes. - I will do that.
I will do that until you enter into a relationship.
(Thank you.)
(Kwang Gi is the best.)
Age doesn't matter.
- It doesn't bother me that much. - Age isn't important.
- Character is more important. - That's right.
Young people can be boring...
- and old people can be cool. - It's not like that.
If she has a preference,
it should be met.
Be that as it may, character is more important.
I think...
it will be burdensome to be introduced to someone.
- It's like, "I have to see him." - You should meet as a group...
- so that it's more natural. - Then communicate via SNS first.
(Don't worry.)
SNS!
People even exchange pictures these days.
Why would he need to receive Wan Sun's pictures?
(Who doesn't know Wan Sun?)
I will give it some thoughts. Thank you.
Thank you so much for offering.
I really want to do that for her. She is a beautiful woman.
(We hope Wan Sun will have a beautiful relationship.)
Yoon Jung...
also becomes feminine...
- before a man she likes. - A man she likes.
My voice becomes gentler.
The aggressive image disappears.
Yes. I can't act cute,
but I use gentler words...
- when I speak. - Let's say...
your aggression is normally at 70...
No, let's say it's normally at 100.
How much do you push it down before a man you like?
70?
- I push it down to 60. - If you do that,
what will you do...
if it goes back up to 100?
Men who like me...
- cherish my aggressive side. - That's right.
Are you in a relationship these days?
- Yes, I am. - That's good.
That must be why you are wearing pink.
What does he do for a living? Is he in the show business?
He teaches soccer.
Really?
- Both of you... - The two teachers have met.
- That's right. - How did you meet him?
I have always known him.
- He pursued me aggressively. - He made a move on you.
He is younger than me.
- He is younger than you. - Yes.
I came to see him as a man.
- That always happens. - I realized that...
I don't like him because he is younger than me.
I simply happened to like someone who is younger than me.
- That's right. - That's the answer.
People always say that,
but when they talk...
Gu Ra picked the age first.
That's not true.
A lot of women like Gu Ra.
If you say that...
He is the most popular divorcee in Korea.
(He is the most popular divorcee in Korea.)
He really is.
Congratulations.
(He is the most popular divorcee.)
Kwang Gi must have wanted to look like a loving husband...
because he and his wife awkwardly played with water...
after the interview.
What did they do?
There wasn't even a camera.
What did you do?
How did you awkwardly play with water?
It's not like that.
There are plants around the house.
Because of the heat wave,
I water the plants every day.
So you were watering the flowers with a hose.
- I was watering. - It was unintentional.
To be honest, since the interview went so long,
I think she was a little frustrated.
She asked me if the interview ended...
while watering the flowers.
And then she suddenly sprayed me with the water hose, so I...
That must've looked unnatural to the writers.
- "Unnatural"? - Yes.
They probably didn't expect to see that at your house.
- I see. - When I heard this, I thought...
Kwang Gi said...
on TV shows several times...
that he does a role play with his wife...
when he feels that they grew tired of their married life.
So I thought it was a role play.
- A gardener and... - My gosh.
- "A role play"? - Is that true?
No.
- You said that several times on TV. - Stop talking about it.
Let's move on.
What are you talking about?
- Can you tell us just one story? - It's written in the script.
(She's curious about the role play.)
- Where is it written? - I mean,
you were a gardener, and your wife was a noble lady.
I thought it was a role play like that.
- So that's not the case? - No.
We don't do a role play anymore.
When your wife sprayed you with a water hose,
how did you react?
I said, "Gosh. You startled me."
- It was a role play. - "You startled me."
- It was a role play. - Right.
"You startled me."
Would you have sprayed her with water too?
If the writers hadn't been there,
I would have sprayed my wife with water too.
My studio hasn't become very successful yet.
The land size is 562㎡. It's very large.
On the left side, there's a gallery...
See? He's talking about it himself.
I didn't bring that up.
He always ends up talking about his studio.
We also have a bedroom in the building.
- So... - Now, I want to visit there.
(You'll be welcomed.)
- Ho Min. - Yes?
You met your wife at a gallery...
- like a movie? - Really?
It's true that I met her at a gallery,
but it wasn't that beautiful like a movie.
- I was working part-time there. - You were working there.
Yes. I designed their website and some other things.
There was a wall drawing project at the gallery I was working at.
I was asked to join the project as I'm a cartoonist.
So about six young people gathered for the project.
And the youngest person among us...
Oh, she majored in art.
was my wife.
Is your wife a full-time housewife now?
No. She draws illustrations for books from time to time.
- Does she? - Yes.
- I guess she holds exhibitions. - Yes.
- She held an exhibition recently. - Not again.
- Not again. - Are you talking about your studio?
(He got me.)
Yoon Jung looks like...
she enjoys drinking like a Viking.
But the word "alcohol" alone makes her dizzy, so she doesn't drink.
I used to enjoy drinking.
- I liked drinking with others. - Really?
But I don't like getting drunk and getting groggy.
And I always take care of the others who are drunken.
As I get old,
I found out a lot of people around me had bad drinking habits.
It's so funny that I've never seen...
people with bad drinking habits drinking alone together.
(That's true.)
They always drink with those who have no bad drinking habits.
- They get annoyed too. - They get drunk.
There are some people I want to...
- see drinking together. - They get drunk.
- Just to see who is worse. - That'd be funny.
They should know how hard it is...
- to take care of them. - They should know.
- It's really annoying. - All those who have bad habits...
Tae Hyun and I like drinking, but don't have bad habits.
We just walk unsteadily.
It's okay if you have no bad drinking habits.
But since many of the people I know have bad habits.
At first, I lied to them that I had quit drinking.
They started to drink without me.
I had a drink after a long time,
- and it caused a headache. - It makes you dizzy.
My body couldn't take alcohol.
That's how you quit drinking.
Yes. So I quit drinking.
Gu Ra used to drink a lot, but he quit drinking too.
- I don't like feeling dizzy. - Me neither.
- I used to... - But that's the point.
Why would you stop before that?
It feels good when it gets difficult to talk clearly.
- That's true. - I know that feeling.
- You're right. - Right?
- You speak really weird. - I know.
I think I'm talking really clearly.
You can't pronounce words clearly.
- That's why people like drinking. - That's right.
Cartoonists drink a lot, right?
You must get stressed out so much.
- Unexpectedly, I rarely drink. - Because of work?
Yes. My cartoon is published every week.
- Drinking affects my work too much. - I see.
- That's right. - So I rarely drink.
Yoon Tae Ho drinks often.
- He drinks a lot. - But...
he works with many assistants.
- His assistants work hard. - Yes.
I think they work really hard.
(The work is strictly divided.)
I wonder what happened...
- to Kwang Gi. - He's busy doing so many things.
I have no idea what happened,
but he has free access to the Demilitarized Zone,
which is an area restricted to civilians.
The office of Gyeonggi Province issued a pass for me.
Is it because of the film festival?
That's one of the reasons.
But above all, the Demilitarized Zone...
- is unbelievably beautiful. - That's right.
- The nature is well preserved. - To put it simply,
it's like a beautiful garden that hasn't touched in 60 years.
You never know what creatures are living in there.
- You never know. - Right.
Also, when I leave there at sunset,
- it looks magnificent. - It must be beautiful.
I take pictures of the scenery like that with my camera.
I also take pictures of the place where there was the US army.
- I'm collecting data. - Do you also hold exhibitions...
- of those pictures? - Yes, I do.
How do you usually come up with the exhibition title.
For example, when I exhibit photos of plants in that area,
I would name my exhibition "The Garden of Silence".
The grass and traces on the ground...
- tell us the history... - But it sounds...
- It's too cliche. - It's cliche.
- Really? - It's cliche.
I'm surprised because it's too cliche.
- Are you surprised? - "The Garden of Silence"?
Cliche is good.
- It's good, but predictable. - They watch people passing by...
without making any noise.
- He keeps explaining. - He's the most talkative.
Whether Gu Ra or Jong Shin passed by,
no one would know.
- You don't know what they did. - Is it because of the title?
(Are you covering your mouth because it's "The Garden of Silence"?)
That's not silence. That's whispering.
How long have you been...
interested in the Demilitarized Zone?
It's been almost eight years.
I've been visiting the area regularly for eight years.
Since I visited the area often,
I came up with a brilliant idea not long ago.
When you look at the navigator,
after you pass the Civilian Control Line...
Even on the map made by the "G" company,
- there's nothing in that area. - That's right.
There's the Military Demarcation Line there.
- It's not on the map. - That's right.
- I understand. - Of course.
That made me realize...
that when we can see...
the pin that we see on the GPS...
in that area, South and North Korea will have reunited...
- and be communicating. - We'll have reconciled.
That's why I made Peace Pin.
- What's that? - "Peace Pin".
Is that the sculpture we saw before?
Yes, it's a sculpture.
- He brought it up before we did. - Oh, this...
He promotes it by himself.
- Is this it? - We meant to talk about this,
but he brought it up first.
On the Pinwheel Hill in the Imjingak Pyeonghoa-Nuri Park,
- Is it there? - my pin is placed.
And next to it, there's a sign that says,
- "Artist Lee Kwang Gi". - That's amazing.
It's meaningful.
I'm grateful.
The pin in the navigation shows...
- departure point and destination. - Right.
- It's meaningful. - In the end...
We often talk about the drifting society, drifting politics...
Are you talking about politics now?
I just gave you an example.
I was just explaining.
He even talks about politics.
- He gave us this picture too. - That's right.
Our staff usually ask the guests...
for a picture like this,
but Kwang Gi gave this picture to us before that.
I'm sorry.
(I wanted to brag about it.)
Anyway, how do you handle such a hectic schedule?
- Exactly. - We've heard about...
- so many things he does. - That's right.
- What do you do? - Me?
- I'm living my life to the fullest. - Right.
Ho Min, is it true that you have a weird symptom...
whenever you hold back your anger?
I don't usually get angry at others.
Whenever I hold back my anger,
- I have a new mole on my face. - A mole?
- Really? - Yes.
- That's interesting. - By the way,
does it appear right away?
- Is it even possible? - I think it appears gradually.
- I see. - Then...
- you don't see it right away? - No.
- It doesn't appear suddenly. - My goodness.
- I find a new mole... - You know when you hear the sound.
Just like the eyelids droop when people are tired,
- you have a new mole. - Yes.
I have a friend who is a dermatologist.
He told me to visit him to get rid of my moles.
- So I... Yes, I went to see him. - Did you go to his clinic?
My friend is a dermatologist.
However, removing moles doesn't seem like just work for him.
I think he really enjoys doing it.
I had about 40 moles, so he got so excited.
He said, "Hey. Can I remove all of these moles?"
- It's like popping a pimple. - Exactly.
While smacking his lips like this, he asked,
- "Can I remove all of them?" - I see.
He found a perfect job for him.
As I said before, Ho Min's father is a painter.
- Yes, he is. - What kind of painter is he?
- He draws abstract paintings. - Does he?
What is his name?
Ju Jae Hwan.
Artist Ju Jae Hwan.
Ju Jae Hwan.
- Is he still active? - I know...
- I know Artist Ju Tae Seok, but... - Yes, he's still active.
- Go on. - His mother was an art teacher.
- She used to be. - Really?
And his uncle is an art critic.
- Why? - Wait. I need to see his photo.
Can't you make the screen brighter?
- It's too dark. - It's running out of battery.
- He's busy. It's understandable. - He's an abstract artist.
Oh, him. He's a very famous artist.
This is his painting, right?
- Yes. - You see,
he held his exhibitions at major galleries in Korea.
- He held a lot of exhibitions. - He's been recognized.
- Including Hakgojae Gallery. - Yes. He held many exhibitions.
Kwang Gi will ask you for a business card.
- They exchanged their numbers. - We already exchanged numbers.
"Korean of the Day, Artist Ju Jae Hwan".
- There's a news article about him. - He must be well renowned.
Perhaps that's why people around him criticize his drawings.
I was asked why I'm poor at drawing when my parents are artists.
I said there wasn't much to learn as they drew abstract paintings.
They rarely draw a portrait.
Have you ever thought of doing fine arts like your father?
I've never thought about it because...
my father started painting when he turned 40.
And he held his first individual exhibition at the age of 60.
- I see. - He started painting late.
Since he started painting late,
my mother...
taught the kids in our neighborhood how to draw at home.
- She gave them drawing lessons. - To make ends meet.
When I was in middle school, when I came home,
I always saw a lot of kids in the living room.
Our house wasn't even that big. It was...
- a 66㎡ house. - It was common back then.
As I was too young, I hated it.
I hated to see other kids in my house.
- Kids you don't know. - Yes.
I remember that I went straight to my room without looking at them.
Your father has a lot of fans now.
- Yes. - Right?
Yes. He seems to have many loyal fans now.
I see. Today, Kwang Gi...
I should see him often.
You met a person who could help you a lot.
(The person who could help Kwang Gi)
Kwang Gi practices acting alone in his studio.
- Well... - We're back to his studio again.
- In his studio... - I'm getting tired.
I heard you acted as if you were looking for Gu Ra...
- while opening the door. - It's not like that.
I always try to be prepared,
so I can perform whenever I have a chance.
When I'm alone,
I look into the mirror while spacing out.
- I decorated the makeup room well. - All right. Show us.
Show us how you cry.
That's not how I practice.
- You're surprised. - There should be actions too.
Imagine this place is...
- I imagine a situation. - You're surprised.
- Make a surprised face. - My studio...
Stop. Make a surprised face.
Stop promoting your studio, and make a surprised face.
I'm at Gu Ra's wedding now.
- I see. Okay. - But Gu Ra disappeared.
The bride is in the waiting room.
Gu Ra.
- Gu Ra. - What's that?
Hey, Kim Gu Ra!
Your fiancee is looking for you. Where are you?
- That's funny. - Gu Ra!
Why would you look up at the ceiling to find Gu Ra?
- Is Gu Ra dead? - It's not over yet.
That jerk. He's not picking up.
- What's going on? - Hey, Kim Gu Ra!
Your bride is waiting. The guests are waiting too.
Is he at a wedding?
This is driving me crazy.
(Kwang Gi acts fidgety.)
He has passion for acting.
Oh, Gook Jin, have you seen Gu Ra?
He passed by? He went to the bathroom?
- Bathroom? - When are you going to finish it?
- When are you going to finish it? - Exactly.
- What was that? - This is how I practice.
- It looks more like... - Yes.
- Gook Jin's monodrama. - That's not an acting performance.
It's like a monodrama.
I was impressed by his performance in "Taejo Wang Geon".
- When you... It was amazing. - Oh, that.
- Gosh. He scared me. - This?
(She's startled.)
- When I was younger... - Look at him.
- Kwang Gi is always prepared. - Exactly.
(Thump)
(He performed in the angry scene with so much passion.)
(Shall I show you?)
Reenact the scene for us.
"You!"
"How dare you!"
I had scenes like this.
- He's really... - Show us how you wailed...
when you were abandoned by your father.
- He hit the table again. - "Father!"
(Laughing)
He's serious.
(Wailing)
All right. Cut. Next scene.
Let's move on.
Kwang Gi should perform again. He'll be cast soon.
- He's passionate. - I have so much passion.
- My goodness. - What was that?
(The man of passion cracked everyone up.)
All right. You are watching...
a high-end music program, Radio Star.
Today's theme is for those who can't fall asleep due to tropical night.
"The Song That Helps You Beat the Heat".
First, shall we hear the song that Wan Sun chose?
- Oh, this song? - This is a great song.
- This is my debut song. - "Tonight".
Kim Chang Hoon composed this song.
The lyrics go, "I feel scared..."
- "of the dark tonight." - Right.
I thought it would suit a summer day.
Shall we hear Wan Sun sing "Tonight"?
We haven't heard this song for a long time.
("Tonight" by Kim Wan Sun)
(In 1986, Princess Wan Sun was famous for her scary face.)
(In 2018, Wan Sun is back!)
(Sexy and alluring)
(Tonight, I'm scared of the dark)
(The birds crying at night sound so sad)
(Everyone, how did you enjoy the show?)
(Did I scare you?)
(Don't be afraid of me anymore.)
(The scary look on my face,)
(disappear right now.)
(Tonight, she let go of everything without hesitation.)
(If you're still afraid of Wan Sun,)
(it's all in your mind.)
(She exudes sexiness.)
(Wan Sun's performance made the summer night exciting.)
- I think she has a great voice. - Of course.
Although Wan Sun sings very well,
- we mostly talk about her dance. - Exactly.
Her voice was perfectly stable.
And even when she just woke up,
- she sung with a clear voice. - She got enough sleep.
- Her dance... - "She got enough sleep."
- She got a good-quality sleep. - Is that so?
(A good-quality sleep is her secret to her singing ability.)
Now, shall we hear the song that Kwang Gi chose?
(What song did he choose?)
("Mazinger Z", the theme song of the famous animation, "Mazinger Z")
Why? Why did you pick this song?
I wish a hero like Mazinger Z...
shows up to protect all of us.
- That's why I chose it. - "Mazinger Z" was aired on MBC.
That's right. That's another reason why I chose this song.
Mazinger Z was our hero back then.
- Let's give him a hand. - Let's hear "Mazinger Z".
("Mazinger Z" sung by Lee Kwang Gi)
(Shrugging his shoulders)
(His restrained dance moves increase expectations.)
(Kwang Gi prepares for transformation with a serious look.)
(The iron leg is combined with his leg.)
(Gathering all the energy of the universe,)
(he combines the other leg with the iron leg.)
(I'm almost done.)
(The transformation is complete, but he lost one leg.)
(Kwang Gi gets furious at the thought of the leg he lost.)
Give me back my leg!
(Maybe he was a one legged ghost. He gets even more furious.)
(But Kwang Gi never gives up.)
(Running)
(I found my leg. I will protect the earth.)
- He spiced up the song. - Right.
Your legs worked hard.
Today's theme was...
"I'm Afraid of the Dark Tonight".
Before we wrap up, can you tell me what fears you want to overcome?
Ho Min.
I have a fear of starting a new cartoon.
- Right. - We all have that fear.
- I feel pressured to draw... - It's the same for everyone.
a better cartoon than my previous work.
Once I start working on my new cartoon,
- it goes away. - You get immersed in it.
But I always have that fear.
I have a similar fear to his. Creating something...
- is difficult, right? - Yes.
I've made a dance choreography for hundreds of songs,
but I feel afraid whenever I get a new offer.
- Exactly. - I feel pressured to make a hit.
- You must be pressured. - Yes. But now,
I try not to worry too much about it. Regardless of the result,
I try to make a dance choreography as I want.
I'm overcoming my fear well.
Kwang Gi.
I feel fear when people ask me when I'll perform in a drama again.
When people ask me about it...
It's not like I have a choice.
You showed a lot of acting performances here.
- That's right. - He wouldn't stop.
- As long as he has passion... - It was enough for a short film.
No. It was enough for four episodes of drama.
So I believe that as long as I keep trying,
there will be the day when I make my wish come true.
- It's because he's multi-talented. - That's right.
Today, talking to you all...
cooled us down in many ways.
Right now, behind you...
My goodness.
(Scared)
- Gook Jin! - Calm down.
- That was the scariest moment... - You said you never get scared.
- for her until now. - Hey.
- She said she never gets scared. - You scared me.
Right. She said, "Even a ghost can't scare me."
I thought there would be another one.
- Behind you, - Tae Hyun...
gets scared so easily.
Radio Star is always behind you.
Visit us anytime whether it's hot or cold.
We will say goodbye here. See you next week.
- Please. - Please.
