(It's nice to meet you.)
The girl crush-worthy singer,
- Narsha! - Welcome!
Hello. I'm Narsha.
The singer and songwriter Yoo Jae Hwan!
- Yoo Jae Hwan! - Hello.
Choi Jung Hoon of Jannabi!
(Choi Jung Hoon of Jannabi)
The chart-topping singers,
Kim Jae Hyun and Yoo Hwe Seung of N.Flying!
(Kim Jae Hyun and Yoo Hwe Seung of N.Flying)
Our staff called Jae Hwan...
to invite him to the show. "I'm from Hello."
Then he said, "Yes, I'll go on the show."
- "I'll be on the show." - As soon as he got invited.
Is it true? Did you just say that to be funny?
It's true.
I was so excited when I got a call from them.
All the celebrities who are friends with me appeared on the show,
but only I haven't.
- Thinking that... - Who came on this show?
Kwun Hyuk Soo, DinDin,
- and some other celebrities. - They were here.
I guess the two of them are all your celebrity friends.
- Exactly. - They're the only ones.
- Right? - All right.
Jae Hwan always says that he wants to work with her.
- He's a songwriter too. - That's right.
- You say that a lot. - That's right.
Since I became a songwriter,
Brown Eyed Girls was the best artist to me.
As a songwriter, I always wanted to work with them at least once.
It would be an honor for me.
He's such a smooth talker.
It's my wish to work with her.
I understand.
I feel that he'll appear on "Tasty Guys" soon somehow.
- I'm just joking. - You'll get invited soon.
By the way, Jung Hoon of Jannabi...
- is very popular these days. - Jannabi.
Jung Hoon, I heard that you were worried...
about appearing on a variety show.
Yes. I'm not very good with words,
and I get nervous easily.
But I decided to think of it as part of my musical activities.
It will help me let more people know about me.
- That's right. - That's important.
And my name is ranked high on the internet hit list sometimes,
which makes people curious about my songs too.
- That's right. - It makes me very happy.
Jae Hwan acted like he was close to you while you were talking.
In fact...
- You must be feeling uncomfortable. - He's my best friend.
He's my best friend.
- That's good. - Yes.
Your song "Rooftop"...
- climbed music charts. - That's right.
You must be exceptionally happy.
I felt the emotion that I had never felt before then when our song...
ranked top on the chart.
- Of course. - Suddenly, he...
- He cried a lot. - He did?
I think I looked cute when I was crying.
- It was talked about by people. - Look at that.
(My goodness!)
- I think I look cute. - He's cute.
- But my mouth looks so big. - He looks cute.
He's crying his heart out. He could fit his fist in his mouth.
- He looks cute. - I know.
You released a new song recently.
- The title is "Spring Memories". - "Spring Memories".
- That's a nice song title. - What a beautiful expression.
"Spring Memories".
Shall we listen to "Spring Memories"?
(Let's listen to their song.)
("Spring Memories" by N.Flying)
(He doesn't sing because he's the drummer.)
(The sweet melody...)
(with the warmth of spring)
(It's a good song.)
(On a warm spring day)
(It's so nice.)
- It's great. - We have three stories as always.
Show us the keywords please.
"Let's Have It out Here!"
"Only He's Excited".
"Will Spring Come?"
"Only He's Excited".
Hello.
I'm a man in my 30s, and I am worried...
because of the elderly man called Grandpa Dam Bi.
Grandpa Ji Byeong Soo.
Out of my mind
I must be out of my mind
He was so cute.
He appeared on "National Singing Contest".
The man in his 70s...
sang Son Dam Bi's "Crazy" while dancing,
- which became the talk of the town. - That's right.
Whenever I see him,
I get surprised.
His father says...
"Son, did you see Grandpa Dam Bi on the show?"
"Which one do you think is better? Me or him?"
"What do you think, my son?"
My 74-year-old father...
says he's going to become the next Grandpa Dam Bi.
(My goodness.)
I have a seven-month-old baby.
I'm also busy as the head of a family.
But my father texts me too often.
"Son, this is my dance video."
"Give me your feedback."
"Hey, Son, how about this song?"
"I think it would be better."
Text message alert.
"I sent you a video of me singing."
"Give me some feedback."
- He's serious about it. - If I don't...
give him feedback right away...
Phone ringing.
"Honey, what should I do? Your father called me."
"Just tell him how you think."
He even calls my wife, his daughter-in-law.
That's not all.
"I should do something."
"I'm going to become a star on a video sharing website."
- Oh, my. - "Son, let's start a channel."
"Make choreography for me and upload my videos."
My father is so obsessed with becoming a star.
Please stop my father.
(Please stop my father.)
He's worried about his father...
who dreams of becoming a star...
who is even more famous than Grandpa Dam Bi. Please come out.
(Who is worried about his father who's dreaming of becoming a star?)
(Jo Seong Woo)
(Welcome.)
Your 74-year-old father wants to be the next Grandpa Dam Bi?
I'm sure he hates to be called the next Grandpa Dam Bi.
"Why am I the next version of him?"
"He just appeared on TV before I do."
- Does he think like that? - Yes.
I think he doesn't want people to think...
that he's copying Grandpa Dam Bi.
He is 74 years old now.
I heard that he dreamed of becoming an entertainer since he was a child.
So I understood him.
However, he said he waited until he turned 70...
because he thought he could pursue his dream after 70.
While he was preparing, Grandpa Dam Bi...
burst onto the entertainment scene.
- It must've motivated him more. - Yes.
The people around him also said...
that my father would do better,
and he's only three years younger than Grandpa Dam Bi.
- Starting his own video channel... - Did he start his own channel?
No. He hasn't done it yet.
He asked me to make and manage it for him.
He's worried he might have to do all the work.
I'm not good at it.
I don't know how to manage a channel.
Does your father send his dance video even to his daughter-in-law?
He sends us his videos, and when I'm at home,
he visits our house and dances in front of us...
in the living room.
- Does he dance in front of you? - Yes, from time to time.
It must not be easy to dance in front of his daughter-in-law.
- Narsha, you're married. - Yes.
- That's right. - How would you feel...
if your father-in-law dances in your house?
He has never done it, right?
(What if your father-in-law dances in front of you?)
- I would be flustered. - Right?
- Right. - "Teach me how to dance."
(My father-in-law dancing like this?)
"Teach me how to do this dance."
I can't even imagine him doing that. Also, I can't...
- perform in front of my family. - Of course.
- I feel embarrassed. - I can't even imagine it.
- Of course. - I feel so embarrassed.
So you give reactions that your father wants.
Does your wife also do that?
That's right. My wife does that too.
"Father, you look fabulous. You're so talented."
"How you move your hips and pelvis is fantastic."
She compliments how he moves his hips and pelvis?
(The best compliment)
My wife used to be a K-pop dance instructor.
- That's why he acts like that. - Yes.
- So your wife... - She's an expert.
- I understand him now. - I think that's why he wants to...
get her feedback and acknowledgment.
- He wants to be acknowledged. - Yes. So...
before he performed at his singing class,
he asked my wife to be his backup dancer.
His backup dancer?
- His daughter-in-law? - Yes.
My gosh.
But she should look after her baby.
- But she couldn't do it... - She couldn't?
because she got pregnant.
- She couldn't... - She should be careful.
perform with my father.
Narsha, what if your father-in-law asks you to be his backup dancer?
I think you could do that much for him.
- I would be flustered. - Right.
Who would I do that?
Let's meet with his father. Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
(Who is his father who wants to become a national star?)
- I like his fashion style. - He's stylish.
- Look at him. - He looks very young.
He's wearing jeans and...
(He pulls off all-denim outfits.)
- He looks manly. - He looks stylish.
Do you understand why your son is worried?
Yes, I do.
Right. Your son says...
(He gave a simple answer.)
Your son says that it's a little stressful...
that you ask him and his wife to give you...
enthusiastic reactions to your performances.
I got good reviews from the people around me.
But I wanted to be evaluated by them as they have an artistic sense,
and I wanted to know how much I could...
appeal to young people.
- That's why I acted like that. - He's cool.
Sir, have you always wanted to become an entertainer...
since you were a child?
In fact, just like comedians,
I've always been good at responding to other people...
in a humorous way during a conversation...
and improvising jokes.
- He's complimenting himself. - So...
I dreamed of becoming a comedian.
Why did you fail to become an entertainer?
The appearance mattered the most back then.
But he looks fabulous.
I went to an audition for a movie once.
You did?
Yes.
The writer said to me,
"Not everyone can be here."
That's harsh.
Sir, I think you won't like this question,
but are you dreaming of becoming the next Grandpa Dam Bi?
I hate copying other people.
- People say that... - "I am the first."
only because he became famous before I do.
However, I heard that Grandpa Dam Bi...
used to be a dancer.
I didn't watch his video many times...
I watched his video briefly just once.
(He was conscious of Grandpa Dam Bi.)
So the man called Son Dam...
- Son Dam Bi. - Grandpa or whatever he's called...
Are you pretending you don't know anything about him?
- No. - He watched Grandpa Dam Bi's video.
- No. I... - He must've watched it many times.
I am telling you only the facts.
- I understand. - However,
how did you hold back your urges to show your talents...
- until now? - Exactly.
When I was in my 30s and 40s,
I thought I might cause my family harm,
so I restrained myself.
- As a father. I understand you. - Yes.
It seems like he held back...
for his family.
I know. But it's what he thinks.
My father likes to go to karaoke.
What's important is that it's always like a standing concert.
- Do all of you stand up? - Yes. We should stand up.
Oh, like a standing concert.
Also, he's very energetic.
He sings an entire song without skipping any part.
(He sings an entire song!)
- He sings the first verse, - An entire song?
- second verse, and the chorus part. - He doesn't skip the interlude.
It's hard to sing an entire song without skipping any part.
I see why he came on this show.
His wife must be stressed out as well.
I think that's why he came here.
She's an amazing daughter-in-law.
- That's right. - She's so nice.
These days, not many people...
would give such reactions to their father-in-law or dance with him.
Let's meet with his wife. Hello.
- She's so nice. - Hello.
Please be honest. As a former dance instructor,
do you think that your father-in-law is a good dancer...
or a bad dancer?
I also taught an aerobics dance class a few times.
There were many elderly people in their 70s in my class.
They tend to move their arms a little slowly.
- They tend to be offbeat. - Yes.
But my father-in-law can do amazing dance steps.
He can do great dance steps.
Considering that, for his age,
I think he's very talented.
He's the best among the people around his age?
Why did you have to ask that?
- Among people around his age. - That's right.
Are you complimenting him because he's right next to you?
Because he's right next to you?
(A little.)
Your husband said...
- She gave us a signal. - that you go to karaoke together.
How long have you danced with a tambourine?
- I usually stand up for an hour. - My gosh.
My father-in-law sings around 18 songs.
He doesn't put down the mic even when my husband sings.
- So I have to keep dancing. - He doesn't put down the mic?
He hasn't put down his mic until now.
Right.
(He's holding his mic even when he doesn't speak.)
- He is... - Most guests put down the mic...
when they don't speak.
- I thought it was attached... - He hasn't put it down...
- to his shirt. - until now.
(He's become one with the mic.)
- My gosh. - He needs a mic.
That's right.
(Flustered)
He looks awkward.
Sir, you look better when you hold up the mic.
- Please hold it up. - You look awkward without it.
- Please hold it up. - Daughter-in-law,
it's nice to hang out with your family,
but honestly, isn't there anything that stresses you out?
Well... Since my baby...
is still very young, my baby cries often.
- Of course. - Of course.
- It's hard. - And he sends me...
many videos of him dancing or singing.
Sometimes I have no time to check it.
But he calls me if I don't reply to him right away.
He says, "Did you not reply because I did a terrible job?"
- You must feel uncomfortable. - When he acts like that,
I feel a little baffled...
because I only forgot to reply to him.
What would you do if your father sends you his dance videos...
and asks for your feedback just like he does?
I think I would try to stop him if it were my dad.
"Dad, this is too much."
"Please enjoy it by yourself."
- "Please enjoy it by yourself." - "Please enjoy it by yourself."
But he's my father-in-law.
And my father-in-law is fabulous.
(But my father-in-law is fabulous.)
- Anyway... - She's sweet.
- She's incredible. - Let's ask no more questions.
- Let's see how he dances. - Shall we watch his dance?
(Excited)
I'm so curious.
Finally.
- He brought sunglasses. - He's taking off his glasses.
(I've been waiting for this day.)
Please come down to the stage.
His daughter-in-law has no choice but to perform with him.
His son too.
He looks like Rain. He's Grandpa Rain.
- Grandpa Rain. - He looks like Rain.
(For the past 70 years, he hid...)
(his passion for dancing on stage.)
Sir, what are you thinking about?
(What are you thinking about?)
- Music hasn't started yet. - I know. It'll be played shortly.
I was just curious what you were thinking about.
Play music, please.
(Music starts.)
(Swaying his hips)
(The fantastic pelvis moves)
- Oh, my. - Goodness.
(Random dance steps)
Oh, my.
Great.
(While watching his father,)
(he joins him with a prop.)
He's acting like a cameraman.
(Laughing)
(He's acting like a cameraman.)
His daughter-in-law is his backup dancer.
Look at his daughter-in-law.
(The family united)
His son is filming him.
(His son looks even more excited.)
(Honey...)
Keep dancing.
(The collaboration of Grandpa Rain, his son, and daughter-in-law.)
My goodness.
Oh, my. His son is amazing.
And so is his daughter-in-law.
- He's taking off his shoes. - That's right.
(He can do dance steps more lightly.)
(It was the most exciting performance ever.)
His son did a great job. They're all amazing.
Sir, please wait.
- Sir, wait. - Where are you going?
- Where are you going? - Please wait.
- Where are you going? - He's amazing.
(Dancing playfully)
(Everyone in the studio got addicted to his dance step.)
Sir, here's a cup of water.
Please drink some water.
- He's talented. - My goodness.
- He was amazing. - However,
What kind of dance did you just do?
- It's... - Hang on. You must be really tired.
Bring him some tissues, please.
- Give him some tissues, please. - First of all,
I was nervous since I was dancing in front of young people.
- You did a great job. - You did well.
(Good job.)
If we play a random song,
can you improvise?
- I don't know. - Another song...
- "I don't know." - He's not sure.
- Then... - "I don't know."
how about "Crazy"?
- Son Dam Bi's "Crazy"? - Yes.
- I don't know the choreography. - You can do freestyle dance.
- I haven't watched it. - Just dance as you want.
- Do a freestyle dance. - Let yourself go with the rhythm.
- Dance just as you want. - Let yourself go.
You can dance just as you want.
All right.
Here we go.
Sir, you can start now.
(Dancing)
He's 74 years old.
(The 74-year-old man's breakdance)
My gosh.
Awesome.
(My goodness.)
(I can't believe this.)
(Are they cheering for me?)
Sir, he's here.
Please come here and shake hands with him.
(I heard you saying you can outdo me.)
(I am a great dancer.)
(Whose dance will be remembered?)
(There's tension between the two of them.)
Let's go.
(Shall I dance first?)
(Oh, no.)
(I'll show you my dance first.)
(Everyone is mesmerized by Grandpa Dam Bi.)
(He's quite good as expected.)
(He shows off his talents.)
My goodness.
(Dancing machine)
(I can't let him win.)
(The popular star looks relaxed.)
(It looks like people like that dance move.)
(Wiggling)
I'm so tired.
(Oh, Dad.)
(He tries his best,)
(but the audience cheers for Grandpa Dam Bi.)
(I am the ending fairy.)
(Awesome!)
- I didn't know the choreography. - We know.
- Please say hello to each other. - Both of them are amazing.
- Hello. It's nice to meet you. - Hello.
It's nice to meet you too.
Great.
I heard that a man who's three years younger than me would be here.
I wondered if he was better than me at dancing.
So I came here to see him.
Oh, my. By the way...
- Sir. - What do you think...
of his dance?
He danced in hip-hop style.
(Hip-hop style)
Hip-hop style?
(Like this)
(He's different from me.)
Hang on. Then...
Could you dance to a different song...
- for us? - Like a special performance.
- I know... - He'll reveal a new dance.
I can do many other dances.
I can dance Kara's "Mister" and "Abracadabra"...
- Those... - "Abracadabra"?
- She's right here. - Sir.
- Brown Eyed Girls. - Yes.
- Hello. I'm... - Oh, my.
(Oh, my. Look who's here!)
(He shakes her hand several times as he's surprised.)
- I'm the original singer. - "I'm the original singer."
(He didn't know he would meet her here.)
(She gets excited.)
(It's like a festival!)
You said you wouldn't dance in front of your father-in-law.
I'm so excited. I'm a big fan of his.
Please play "Abracadabra".
Goodness.
("Abracadabra" performed by Grandpa Dam Bi and Narsha)
Narsha, step forward a little. Good.
Let's all dance together.
(It's getting exciting.)
(Are you ready? Here we go!)
(Dancing in sync)
You're driving me crazy
(This is so exciting.)
That's great.
(Please break up with her)
(It's a perfect collaboration.)
- That was awesome. - I know.
(He's so passionate.)
I wanted to meet him in person.
He's even more energetic and healthier...
- than he seemed on TV. - Right.
- He's fabulous. - He's so talented.
Right. However...
He... Did I compliment him too much?
(Worried)
Sir.
- I'm sorry, sir. - He looks...
He looks very upset.
He was also amazing.
- He danced well. - His dance steps amazed me.
- Me too. - Seriously.
Not many 74-year-old people can dance as he does.
I could see why she said his pelvis dance is fantastic.
Exactly.
When I was a child...
My father may look like he's living young,
but he had no job and just enjoyed himself.
He didn't make any money as far as I know.
So he and my mom drifted apart.
I started working part-time job when I was in third grade.
(He started working in 3rd grade!)
- In third grade? - Yes.
Who? You did?
(He had to work at the age of 10...)
(because his family had a financial difficulty because of his father.)
(His father didn't fulfill the role of a father.)
- I worked at... - In third grade?
- At the age of 10? - Yes.
I cleaned a public bathhouse back then.
I worked a part-time job in middle and high school as well.
What's more disappointing is that he has a good reputation.
He has a lot of friends and everyone thinks highly of him.
- But that made me even sadder. - I understand.
- He's good to everyone else. - Not to his family.
- Not to his family. - There were times...
when I missed my father,
and I needed a male adult as I grew up.
- I wanted him to be different. - I see.
- At times like that... - He was never there for you.
At times like that, I was upset and disappointed.
I'm sure you resented your father at least a little.
I resented him in my 20s.
When we talk, he always hears only what he wants to hear.
We can't have a good conversation.
- You can't communicate with him. - That's right. I bought a watch...
three years ago for my father before I got married.
I visited him several times to give him the watch,
we ended up arguing with each other,
and I left without giving him the watch.
I kept the watch in the corner of my house.
I gave it to him three years later.
Is he wearing the watch now?
Yes, he is.
(Ta-da)
He looks like Iron Man.
(He shows off unusually too!)
(Why would he show it off so proudly in this situation?)
- I think it's a nice watch. - It's shining.
Why did you decide to give him the watch three years later?
I realized that I was arrogant.
Now that I'm married and have a baby,
- I see. - I realized...
- Now that you're a father... - Yes. Raising my own child...
- made me realize... - Right.
that I must not have grown up on my own.
I decided to...
show him my affection for him, so I gave it to him.
- You are such a nice person. - He is, indeed.
Maybe you get your good personality from your father.
- Try to look on the bright side. - Okay.
(He suddenly makes a concluding remark.)
Why do you keep trying to end it nicely?
(Let's just be positive.)
He gave you the watch to thank you...
for raising him well.
Did you know about it?
I was sad when he didn't...
listen to me.
But I realized I had been too indifferent.
So I shed tears of regret.
(He finally realized that he had been a bad father.)
What was the point of me being good to other people?
I lived my life not understanding about my own son's misery.
- Now... - So...
I feel...
(He's sorry.)
I felt sorry.
Things had been tough for me too,
but when we can lean on each other's shoulders,
I want to tell him about my true feelings.
- Right. - Bravo.
Your relationship can be good starting today.
(He wants to be close to his son.)
(Since they didn't get to do it until now,)
(they should express their love for each other.)
It's just that he hasn't talked to you much.
He has the desire to be close to his father.
He danced with his father while looking into his eyes.
- Right. - So...
he hates his father and yet he misses him.
He's got both feelings.
Even if you didn't give them much love,
your son grew up well, and you got a lovely daughter-in-law.
- He's a lucky father. - Do you know that?
I've been neglecting my family,
but my son grew into a nice man. I am grateful.
I want to brag about him to everyone.
(I am proud of you.)
(You should continue to love him.)
You want to get close to your father.
But if he keeps sending you videos,
expecting you to show a reaction,
it would be tough, wouldn't it?
I have to work and make money.
If he keeps doing it...
I won't have much time to dance.
You can dance, but you can dance alone.
- In front of your friends. - Sir,
you are not upset, are you?
No, I am not.
I am not.
You are not wrong. You are right.
You are healthy, and you do everything on your own.
But there's something we couldn't find in you.
You keep forcing your son and daughter-in-law...
to tell you what they think about your performance.
You never ask them about how your grandchild is doing...
and what he likes to do.
You never ask about him.
- Right. - That might...
make them sad.
That's...
Your daughter-in-law is crying.
I was thinking about...
Wait, sir. Look at your daughter-in-law.
That shows how she feels.
Look at her face.
I can see her on the screen.
(Has he gone sulky?)
Sir.
They have to take care of their son...
and take care of their own family.
But you want them to only care about you.
You're giving them a tough time. Don't you agree?
(We hope he wouldn't force them.)
(You will be more considerate of your children now, right?)
I am really sorry, Seong Woo.
(For the first time, his father apologizes to him.)
I have no excuse.
You tried to change the situation first,
and I am ashamed as a father.
You've already forgiven me,
and you tried to make things better. I am grateful for that.
I love you, Seong Woo.
I love you too.
(The father and son became a little bit closer to each other.)
(After expressing the feelings bottled up inside, he feels sorry.)
(Your son must understand.)
I believe...
he prepared something.
Yes. I bought his clothes...
on his birthday.
On your son's birthday.
I didn't know why he wasn't talking to me.
I felt upset and left.
- You didn't give him the gift. - Yes. I just left.
I brought it to give it to him.
(He's shy.)
(What is it?)
(It's the first birthday gift he bought for his son.)
You should go to him. Don't make him come here.
What are you doing?
Son.
(They are very awkward.)
(It's the first birthday gift from his father.)
(It's the first gift he got for his son.)
(They feel awkward giving and receiving a gift.)
(But they should love each other more now.)
They are shy.
Why is the paper bag hot pink? It's pretty.
What is it? It looks too pretty.
Give his father a mic.
What did he buy?
It's a spring jacket. For spring.
A spring jacket.
- A spring jacket. - He spoke English.
- It's a spring jacket. - A spring jacket.
- A spring jacket. - A spring jacket.
I thought it was a brand name.
- Try opening it. - Try it on.
(He will reveal the gift.)
A spring jacket.
- Spring. - A spring jacket.
Try it on.
Come on.
He's got a nice sense of fashion.
- It would suit him. It's nice. - Windbreaker.
- It suits him perfectly. - It looks nice on him.
It suits him.
(His son is satisfied, and he's satisfied too.)
He will wear it forever.
(The jacket contains his father's heart and today's memory.)
(I will keep it for a long time.)
Let's start with Narsha. Is this a worry or not?
I think it's a worry for his son.
I think it's a worry.
I think the family wants to become closer.
I think it's something to be proud of.
I think it's a problem that can be solved, so it's not a big problem.
I think they can solve it through conversations,
and I think it's not a worry.

"Will Spring Come?"
Hello.
Your voice is beautiful. You must have a beautiful face.
I don't know. I haven't seen my face either.
(He's sassy.)
I am a 20-year-old woman...
who got a job right after graduating from high school.
Whenever it's payday, I get a call from a man.
Ring, ring, ring.
"It's your payday, isn't it? Treat me to dinner."
The person who calls me on every payday is...
He is my father.
He does this too.
"Hello?"
"My daughter is treating me. Do you want to come too?"
He even invites his friends...
and orders expensive meat and drinks.
Right. It's not a big deal to treat your parents.
But in my life, Dad has...
never...
- given me any financial support. - No way.
My parents split up when I was young.
And my grandmother raised me.
My father was never interested in me.
"Dad, yesterday was my graduation. Why didn't you come?"
"You didn't come to my middle school graduation."
"Really? I forgot."
He has never congratulated me on my birthday.
The moment I started earning money,
why did he suddenly start acting like we are close?
Recently, this happened too.
"You are now an adult. Make me a credit card."
"Make the credit limit 1,500 dollars."
"Why would I make you a credit card?"
"I don't have enough money these days."
"You are my daughter, and I'm not asking much."
When I was young, things were so tough that I wanted to be an adult.
Now that I am an adult, things are even worse.
Will my life ever get better?
[VIU Ver] E410 Hello Counselor "You Only Live Once" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Wait.
The middle one on the third row.
You are not supposed to press the button now.
You have to vote after you listen to the full story.
- How can you already vote? - You can't...
vote first.
Do you not even want to hear it?
- We get you. - You're not busy, are you?
What do you think about it, Jae Hwan?
It's not an ordinary case.
So it's hard to say.
Why? We should always look at the positive side, right?
- I... - We must be amicable.
A young lady who just started earning sent this letter.
Let's bring her in.
(Who's worried about her father who keeps asking her for money?)
Why is everyone getting up?
(Everyone gets up.)
Whose hand will she hold?
Put your hands out. Whose hand will she hold?
(They look desperate.)
Whose hand will she hold?
Propose to her.
- Whose hand? - Whose hand will she hold?
(Whose hand will she hold?)
Whose hand will she hold?
- My goodness. - My goodness.
He knelt down.
- She's such a kind girl. - Everyone was desperate.
She grabbed Jae Hwan's hand.
She's my little sister.
(The chosen one is delusional.)
She's my little sister.
Do you live with your father?
What's the situation?
When I was young, he split up with Mom.
I've been living with my grandmother.
- You live with your grandmother. - Yes.
Did your father ask you to make you a credit card?
When was that?
- It was 2 to 3 months ago. - That's recent.
He called and asked if I got paid.
- "Didn't you get paid today?" - He called me and...
asked me to treat him.
- "Aren't you an adult now?" - "Aren't you an adult now?"
He asked me to make him a credit card...
when my birthday passes.
He said it was hard for him to pay tax.
He said he would pay me back...
- if I pay it first. - He's indebted.
Did you make him one?
I am still a minor. I am a month away from turning 20.
- You're a month away. - You still haven't turned 20.
Yes. So I didn't get to make him one yet.
What is your profession?
I have an administrative job at a dong office.
- At a community service center. - Then...
I get paid about 1,500 dollars a month.
Dad calls his friends and...
He calls his friends.
"My daughter is treating me. Do you want to come too?"
He said that.
What?
- How many friends came? - How many?
- 1. - 1?
But they're grown-ups,
- so they drank too. - They drank too.
Both of them drank.
How much did you pay?
70 dollars.
Was it more than...
It was more than I expected.
- It was more? - Yes.
If her dad had come alone, it would have been less.
When did he start asking you for financial help?
In 11th grade,
I started working a part-time.
Saying he couldn't pay for transportation,
he asked me to lend him 200 dollars.
- He asked you to lend money. - That's when it started.
Doesn't he work?
Every time I call him, he has a new job.
He's run his own business,
run a bowling alley,
and driven trucks and buses.
He keeps changing his job.
What about right now?
Right now, he has no job.
- He's not working right now. - He's not working right now.
I want to ask you something.
Did you and your dad meet often?
I've been living with my grandma,
and we've never had enough money.
My dad has never...
given my grandma any money...
for our living expenses and tuition fees.
Never?
(They've never received any money from him.)
(That's too much.)
How have you been supporting yourselves?
My grandma receives a subsidy from the government.
- Is that how you live? - With that money,
we've been paying for school and everything.
- The subsidy can't be that much. - You must have struggled.
- That must be too tight. - All right.
Does he ask you...
Be confident.
And your dad keeps asking you favors?
What other things has he asked you for?
My dad bought a car in installments,
and he failed to pay them monthly.
He became a delinquent borrower...
and couldn't...
- He couldn't get a new car. - get a new car.
So he wanted me...
to buy a car with him when I become an adult.
He wants you to get a credit card...
- and a car for him? - And a car too.
Is that why you decided to be on this show...
a month ago?
No. I just want my dad to grow up a bit.
You want him to stop asking you favors.
Let's talk to her dad. His heart must be heavy.
Hello, sir.
- Hello. - Nice to meet you.
(Who asks his 20-year-old daughter for financial help?)
Your daughter came on this show because she is concerned.
Do you understand her?
(Thinking)
I don't understand her.
- Pardon? - You don't understand her at all?
- No. - Please help us understand...
why you don't understand her.
Is it so hard for her to get a credit card for her dad?
(Is it so hard for her to get a credit card for her dad?)
- I'm in need right now. - She's only 20.
- Sir. - You sound so confident.
What is a credit card called a credit card?
You need to be trusted to get a credit card.
But your daughter can't trust you.
You never paid her back 200 dollars.
- No. - If she gets...
a credit card for you...
and you fail to pay back,
she might become a delinquent borrower at 20.
I'm her dad.
I'll never make her a delinquent borrower.
I just asked her for help...
because my situation is bad.
Sir, I studied law.
To own something in someone's name, there has to be that person's will.
In this case, it'll be your daughter's name.
So technically, you can't use her name.
Please understand her position.
I'm curious.
Why did you become a delinquent borrower?
I'm easily persuaded.
When someone asks me for money,
I say, "Okay, I will."
Once I say that, I have to keep my words.
But I have no money.
- And? - I get loans...
- To lend someone money? - Oh, no.
(He gets loans to lend other people money.)
- Why do you lend others money? - Why?
Why?
(Why do you help others when you need help yourself?)
Have you ever been paid back?
Not once.
(Oh, my.)
(That's nothing to brag about.)
Why did you want to buy a car...
with your daughter?
I'll start working at a golf course soon.
Sometimes, I have to start work early in the morning.
Without a car, I can't go to work.
What about public transportation?
There isn't any public transportation when I need it.
Do you mean you can't work because you don't have a car?
I'm working right now too.
I'm working with my friends.
Do you mean...
you've been sending her tuition fees and living expenses?
No. How can I when I can't save up any money?
Sir, I don't understand.
How much do you think a 20-year-old can earn?
Why did you bring a friend and asked your daughter...
to pay for the food and drinks?
Why do you ask her to buy you a meal so often?
That's because...
I want to see my daughter.
Why did you bring a friend, though?
It was my close friend's wife.
I had something to discuss with her,
so I met with her.
And I suddenly missed my daughter, so I called her.
- 70 dollars is a lot of money. - Of course.
I guess...
she didn't want to spend that much on her dad.
My goodness.
That's not it.
If you did your best to support her,
she wouldn't have felt that way.
Maybe.
- Here. - Sir.
Did you come here to listen to your daughter?
But you seem to be losing your temper.
"I guess she didn't want to spend that much on her dad."
You know it wasn't like that.
Do you lose your temper easily?
Yes, kind of.
You're giving us excuses,
talking about your environment.
But were your children born because they wanted to?
You brought them to the world and didn't take responsibility.
I admit that.
To be honest, when she said...
she bought her dad's friend a meal,
I didn't understand what was so bad about it.
My dad did that too.
- "This is my son." - He made me buy meals.
The important thing is,
you should have made your daughter happy to buy you a meal.
That's the point.
- You should express emotions too. - Exactly.
To be honest,
there's so little Dad has done for us so far.
(He doesn't seem to be affected by his daughter's tears.)
(The audience feels sorry for her and cries.)
Even if I want to take a certification exam,
I have to pay 50 to 100 dollars.
But I have no money.
I can't ask my grandma for money either.
(That's too sad.)
You said you started working part-time in 11th grade.
What kind of jobs have you had?
I prepared chicken in the kitchen...
You prepared chicken.
- I worked at a pizza place too. - A pizza place.
And a tripe place.
- At different restaurants... - Since 11th grade.
Why did you have to work part-time?
My salary is about 1,500 dollars.
And I want to help my grandma out.
I give her 100 dollars every month.
I buy food for my younger sister too.
Do you buy anything for yourself?
Well...
A few clothes.
At her age, she must want to look pretty.
- And go out with her friends. - Have nice food.
I wanted to go to college like other friends.
- The situation didn't allow you. - But my dad wasn't settled down.
My younger sister is in 12th grade too.
We needed some financial stability.
(She gave up on her dream for her family's sake.)
I told her to go to college.
I never told her to work.
(What?)
Oh, my.
I...
- How can you say that? - My goodness.
"She worked because she wanted to"?
I wanted to go to college like other friends.
I told her to go to college.
(What?)
- The situation didn't allow her. - She couldn't go.
I mean...
I...
Why do you...
Why do you simplify things like that?
Like you can't buy a car, she couldn't go to college.
(It's impossible to talk to him.)
Her younger sister is here too.
It sounds like she takes very good care of her sister.
Of course, she is her younger sister,
but is there any special reason?
My sister...
has a speech impediment.
Her language development...
Her language development is a little impeded.
So you might not be able to hear her well.
All right. We will take that into consideration.
Let's talk to her little sister. Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
She's cute.
(Smiling brightly)
(Just looking at her sister makes her smile.)
What comes to your mind when you see your sister?
It must've been tough for her.
When she was doing a part-time job,
she often came home hurt.
- My goodness. - My gosh.
Sometimes she fell, and sometimes she cut her hands.
When you prepare chicken,
you have to handle a knife.
Who is your sister to you?
She's like my mom.
- Mom. - Right. She's like your mom.
(She has always protected her like a mother.)
(He feels guilty.)
When I first became a woman...
- Right. - Is that how you say it?
- When I had my first period, - When you had your first period.
my sister took care of me.
That's not easy.
Only a sister can do that.
- She always looks after you. - Right.
(Did you see that?)
Does your father make you feel sad too?
He does. I want him to smile at me...
and say, "You're here, my daughter."
My dad never does that.
I always wonder if he loves us.
I always wonder that.
- Do you? - Yes.
- When was your happiest moment? - Right.
Last year, for the first time,
the three of us...
went on a trip to a sea.
- Right. - It...
made me happy.
He's included in your happiest memory?
Yes. It was fun.
(She was happy to spend time with her dad.)
- Right. - Sir.
- Isn't your heart broken? - Your daughters are waiting.
Please drop your head a little bit.
You should feel sorry.
Your eldest daughter has been working hard since...
she was in second grade of high school.
Did you know that?
I never told her to make money.
I never pushed her to do it.
She must've done it because she needed the money.
She must've needed money to live too.
She had to earn money.
Why do you talk like that?
My gosh.
Why would you say she worked because she needed money?
I think he just doesn't know how to express his thoughts.
(You are you and I am me.)
A lot of things he had said...
hurt you, didn't they?
Dad doesn't...
call me, "My daughter".
He calls me "That wench".
- My goodness. - That's all?
- You can't do that. - Is that how he shows affection?
- It's just that... - That's a curse word.
You heard it too many times.
Don't you think it's too vulgar?
It's how I like to call her so she shouldn't interfere.
That's how you like to call her, and you ask her for money.
- He's frustrating. - How...
can you like calling her that?
If it's just that you are a blunt man,
you must've tried to change.
I guess I am sorry. I feel sorry.
(- What? - I guess?)
But strangely, I can't express it.
It's not what I expected.
I thought he would say, "Yes. I am sorry."
But he didn't, and it breaks my heart.
It seems like he doesn't understand how his daughter feels.
(He can't contradict him.)
Aside from financial support,
when do you feel like you need your father?
When do you need him?
On birthdays and graduation days,
I want him to come and buy us cake.
I wish he would buy my sister a gift.
But he doesn't do that.
(He was never there for them.)
It was when I was suffering from pneumonia.
Someone we know helped me get admitted to a hospital.
That's a nice person.
Because of loans, my dad was...
in a bad situation at the time.
He didn't even visit me once.
- He never came? - He didn't call me.
My goodness.
She told me about the graduation six months before it happened.
While working, I forget about it.
But you remember her payday...
and calls her.
Does your alarm go off on her payday?
How do you remember that?
Perhaps he set an alarm.
How about their birthdays? You must know their birthdays.
When are their birthdays?
(He must know.)
- When's your eldest's birthday? - I know that it's in May.
- May. - What day?
- 15 or 14. - May 15?
- Is it right? - She said it earlier.
- It's similar. - It's not right.
- It's May 7. - May 7.
That was close enough.
- It was one week off. - How about your youngest daughter?
Your second daughter.
She was born in January.
I don't know what date it is.
(He's unbelievable.)
It's something you have to know.
How can you...
- What day is it? - January 23.
- January 23. - You are wrong.
At least he got the months right.
- It's easy to remember. - Do you know his birthday?
October 17.
Is it October 17? What's the answer?
Yes, it's right.
- She got it. - Yes.
She got it.
Let me ask the most important question.
There must've been times when his mother,
your grandmother was ill.
One day, I was working,
and my sister called me.
"Grandma called me and said her head hurts..."
"and that she feels nauseous."
She said Grandma didn't pick up when she called again.
She said that.
I was worried, so I told Dad to go to her.
But he said, "I am working right now. What can I do?"
He yelled at me.
I was working,
and I got a call in the middle of the day.
I couldn't leave.
But she's your mother.
But work is like a promise.
(He keeps the promise he makes to strangers.)
In a way, it's like this.
You are supposed to be taking care of your mother.
But your daughters are taking care of her instead.
How grateful should you be?
And you are supposed to be taking care of the girls.
But your mother is taking care of them.
You shifted all the responsibilities on other people,
and you live only for yourself.
Right. That's true.
It seems like he's working hard...
for the family. It looks like he's swamped with work.
I think he's not busy.
(Why do you say that?)
He's in five clubs.
- Clubs? - What kind of clubs?
- Hobbies? - What kind of clubs are they?
- Soccer. - Soccer, baseball, and hiking.
- He's a member of... - He's in soccer teams.
about 2 to 3 soccer teams.
I will tell you about the clubs.
On Sunday early morning, I play soccer.
I go straight to a baseball field.
We play a baseball game.
On Wednesdays, I patrol the village.
Once in every two weeks, I go hiking.
Those are five clubs.
But doesn't it cost a lot to participate in club activities?
It costs about 1,000 dollars a year.
And you have to spend on various events.
Yes. This is when everyone gets married,
so I spend about 300 to 400 dollars a month.
(We are not even as important as his clubs.)
Why do you join so many clubs?
You should go to see your daughters.
I am not working out for myself.
- Then? - I am...
exercising for my children.
(It's for his children.)
(She can't believe it.)
(We don't even want to understand him now.)
(Things are only getting worse for the family.)
I didn't get to stay by my dad when he was passing away.
I felt so bad...
that he didn't have any friends to carry his coffin.
Are you saying that's why you're participating in clubs?
Although I didn't gain financial success,
I want to gain a lot of friends.
That's why I socialize actively.
It looks like...
you are fundamentally different.
Why do you earn money?
Why do you work hard?
At first, I tried to earn a living for my children.
After failing many times,
life became too hard for me.
One day, I will act like a proper father.
Until then, I want them to wait for me.
(He wants them to wait for a little.)
In your opinion,
what is the easiest thing he can do to become a better father?
What do you want him to do first?
- The easiest thing. - We can live on our own.
We are now bigger.
But grandma is...
She's worried about her grandma.
- You're worried about her. - She's worried about her grandma.
(She's worried about taking care of her grandma.)
Instead of worrying about what will happen when she dies,
I hope he will make her good memories.
That's very important.
(She's unimaginably considerate.)
I am here as a host,
but my heart aches so much. How do you feel?
I feel frustrated.
I feel a little sorry.
Thank you for listening to her.
Thank you for saying that.
Your daughter is not asking you for anything.
She's making a living for herself.
You shouldn't ask her for a card and for money.
Should you not do that at least?
But I need that to make a living.
That's the only thing I ask.
(Will you really do this?)
(He's utterly confused.)
(She's laughing because she can't believe what she heard.)
The two girls and his mother are not in his thoughts.
It's just words.
He only cares about his friends from five clubs.
Don't be ashamed. Ask each one of them...
for help.
The person who helps you is your true friend.
You could be not making money.
You could keep getting unlucky.
Despite having such a father,
your children just want to hear kind words from you.
We hope you know that.
- Let's start with Narsha. - First of all,
I think it's a worry.
I hope he will love them.
I also think it's a worry.
You didn't give your daughters much love,
but you expect them to be filial.
I think that's very selfish.
Being a parent doesn't automatically give you any rights.
You can't demand them to be filial.
I think you should show them your love first.
And I truly hope this will help you change.
- That was nice. - Yes.
I think it's a worry.
Seeing how he can't act like a true father to them...
breaks my heart.
- Does that break your heart? - Yes.
Then can you guys loan money by use your name?
For their family.
- For them. - For their poor family.
I think it's a worry as well.
This one got me thinking.
You reminded me of my own father.
As of now, my father is someone whom I can be proud of.
But in the past, when I opened my eyes in the morning,
all the windows were broken.
- Oh, no. - It was that bad.
It's very simple.
Tell them often that you love them.
And if you can't do that,
I think you've already become a poor father to them.
That's why I think this is a worry.
Good.
These men have grown up so well.
They're so upright.
What will you do about the credit cards?
(She has hope.)
(He silently presses him on.)
I won't make them.
(He won't make them anymore.)
Thank you.
(We hope you start trusting and relying on each other.)
If you think it's a worry on her part, please press the button.
(What does the audience think?)
- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Time's up.
Let's see the result.
"Will Spring Come?"
I hope it will. Let's see the result.
Will it go over?

The next story is "Let's Have It out Here!"
Hello.
I'm a mother in her 50s who lives in Chungcheong-do.
After raising my two sons,
I thought I'd have relaxing later years.
But one of my sons is troubling me.
"Hey, son! Don't you have your part-time job today?"
"Why are you still home?"
"I quit."
My younger son who is 34 years old quits work so easily.
"Mom, I don't have time to make a lot of money right now."
"I need to act. I need to."
That's right. He wants to become an actor...
and has been working part-time...
all these years instead of looking for a decent job.
"Mom, where are you?"
"My goodness, I'm at the hospital."
"I got my appendix removed today."
"Really? Are you serious?"
"By the way, can you wire me 1,000 dollars?"
He hasn't matured one bit and still asks me for money.
"Mom, be patient."
"You need to starve and go through hardships..."
"to become a true actor."
I'm 57 years old.
I can no longer be patient with him.
Please help my son give up on this dream of his.
That's it.
(Wake up, my son.)
To be 34 years old and still asking his parents for money...
is a bit wrong.
Let's bring her in. Come on in, ma'am.
(Who is this woman with a son who wants to become an actor?)
(Hello)
(They wave back.)
(Kwak Won Sook)
Welcome.
Hello, hello
You said your son has never had a proper job before.
Is that right?
Yes. He's 34 years old right now,
and he has never had a real job before.
- Never? - The longest was...
1 year, and the shortest was 3 days.
- Three days? - Yes.
Why hasn't he gotten a job if he hasn't become an actor yet?
That's exactly why I'm here.
Ma'am, calm down.
Why did I ask such a stupid question?
Relax.
How much have you given him?
When he was 24, I gave him about 5,000 dollars.
When he was 27, I gave him 10,000 dollars.
Up until now, it'd be around 20,000 to 30,000 dollars.
- Up until now? - Yes.
- I can only give him so much. - Right.
I don't have enough money either.
He once took out a loan without telling me.
(He secretly took out a loan.)
What?
- He has debt? - Yes.
The debt itself is about 20,000 to 30,000 dollars.
Apart from what you gave him?
- That's the loan? - Yes, apart from that.
Are you working right now?
Yes, I'm a waitress at a restaurant.
I've been doing it for 20 years now.
I work from 10am to 10pm.
- For 12 hours? - What kind of restaurant is it?
- It's a seolleongtang restaurant. - I see.
- That's tasty. - I asked that because...
- Those pots are heavy. - it's hard.
- The pots are very heavy. - Right.
When you serve the food,
how many bowls do you carry?
Six bowls. I can put that many...
- on one tray. - On a tray?
- Really? - There are no chairs,
so I need to stoop down.
I bet your body is feeling unwell.
- Yes. - Perhaps, your back?
- I have a thyroid problem... - Oh, no.
- Really? - because I'm so exhausted.
While carrying the tray, I once sprained my ankle.
Oh, no.
I'm not sure if you know, but I also suffer from otolithiasis.
- Right. - I have that too.
- She must be very stressed. - Otolithiasis.
Is your son the reason why...
you're working?
Yes. I'm the only one who can support him.
In order to become an actor, you need inborn talents.
When he was young...
and I'd take him out,
people would compliment on how handsome he was.
I'm curious about how handsome he was...
for people to say such things and take photos.
Let's see the photo.
- Oh, my. He's cute. - He looks like a star already.
(It's an adorable boy.)
- He looks like a star already. - He's very handsome.
- He looks like a child actor. - He may not be an actor,
but he looks so bright.
Look at his features.
- He's so adorable. - He's a little boy.
He's indeed handsome.
He looks like a child actor.
- He's handsome. - He does look like a child actor.
- He's handsome. - He's very adorable.
- He was handsome from the start. - You're right.
Let's find out how he looks now.
Hello.
(This is the son who wants to become an actor.)
- He's handsome. - He is.
If the people here think you should give up on your dream,
would you actually do that?
(They wait for his answer.)
No.
- What? - See?
- What did you say? - He's determined.
Calm down, ma'am. Let's listen to him first.
- Let's do that. - Then why did you come here?
I only live once, so I want to do what I want.
- See? I told you. - I want to do what I want.
- Ma'am, let's listen to him. - He's like that.
My goodness.
You're right that we only live once.
But do you think your mother enjoyed working for 20 years?
Honestly, no one really enjoys working.
- Right. - We do it to make ends meet.
- Don't you think so? - She has one life too.
You only do what you want.
Hey, don't be scared. Look at him.
- I'm a bit scared. - Come on.
You don't have courage.
- He is scared of you. - Jung Hoon.
- Have courage, and ask him. - Yes.
Glare at him. You have those eyes.
- Yes. Those eyes. - Yes.
So...
- That's it! - Right now.
- Use those eyes. - Use it.
Your mother only has one life.
She doesn't have two.
Yes, you're right.
You're wrong.
You said we're all just working to make ends meet...
and that no one's doing it because they actually enjoy it.
- Right. - So that means...
- you should also do the same. - Right.
But I don't want to live like that.
Then...
- you shouldn't rely on her. - Exactly.
That's why I've been doing part-time jobs these days.
Really?
I drive cars for news reporters.
My father drives a private ambulance.
If he needs help, I go with him.
- You drive. - If he doesn't, I rest.
Is there a reason why...
you can't stay at one job for a long time?
I'm not that young,
so many times, the people I work with...
are younger than me.
- Right, since you're 34. - Yes.
- You can't take that. - When they look down on me,
I think that it'd be better if they did so about my acting...
since that's what I want to do.
Since it's what I want, I can accept that.
How about your mom? I'm sure she was scolded...
- during work too. - Right.
Why do you think she endured it?
(I suffer so much because of you.)
I heard you have a debt.
I took out a credit loan of 22,000 dollars.
I have about that much.
With my car, I have a total of 25,000 dollars.
- A car? - A car?
- A car? - You have your own car?
- Yes. - In this situation?
(He attacks him.)
My gosh.
One day, I was lying down and thought of something.
I wondered what I should do if my mother fell ill.
- If she's sick, - What?
I should be there in a hurry.
- Look at that ridiculous poop. - Ma'am.
- This is... - It's...
- her showing her frustration. - My gosh.
This is a Chungcheongbuk-do thing.
Yes.
- It's an expression. - Yes, it's an expression.
It's...
He said he bought the car because of me.
I told you that I got my appendix removed.
- Right. - Right.
That scumbag...
- It's okay. - Yes, your son?
- Yes, your son. - Right. How could you...
even think about asking me for 1,000 dollars?
Did he visit you?
- No, he didn't. - That's wrong.
- That's... - Honestly,
I had no idea she had that surgery.
When I asked her for money,
that's when she told me she had the surgery.
- That's how I knew about it. - Then you should've come.
I didn't have a car then.
- You didn't? - No.
Why didn't he have one? Darn it.
But even though you didn't have a car,
- you still should have visited her. - That's right.
- Yes. - Your mother was sick.
You should have taken the bus.
She told me not to come.
Why did you listen to her then?
You didn't get 1,000 dollars that day.
No, I didn't. I got it the next day.
- But... - You got it the next day.
(People are incredulous.)
Has he played the main character?
It could have been a small play.
He has been an extra.
- Yes. - In which works were you?
As for KBS, I was in "Descendants of the Sun".
"Descendants of the Sun"?
We prepared the footage...
of his appearances...
because Won Sook hasn't seen it.
There is Song Joong Ki. There is Song Joong Ki.
- This is the beginning. - Where is he?
- Where is he? - There is Song Joong Ki.
- I don't see him. - Where is he?
(Focused)
Where is he?
Hold on.
(Did you find him?)
(They are in a frenzy.)
(She didn't find him.)
- He was there. - Right over there.
He was there.
Did you find him?
- I found him. - Did you find him?
He was at the end.
- Hwe Seung, where was he? - He was there.
Towards the end, he was at the left side.
- The left side. - The right side on the screen.
The right side on the screen. Did you find him?
- I didn't find him. - You didn't find him.
(I didn't find him.)
Where was he?
(They check the answer.)
- Is that him? - Yes.
- There he is. - He is good.
There is your son.
That's right.
(He is puckering his lips in astonishment.)
(Impressed)
(He has realistic facial expressions.)
There he is.
He played a driver.
He gets surprised the same way.
Yes.
He puckers his mouth.
Since when did you want to be an actor?
Ever since I was little, I liked to dance, sing,
and watch movies.
In high school, I majored in theater and film studies...
before I dropped out.
I was thinking about what to do for a living...
when my girlfriend at the time said to me,
"You used to act. You should act."
That's when my passion began to burn...
- again. - In that case,
why didn't you think to learn...
from younger actors?
I did that once.
I joined a theater, but the rules between senior and junior actors...
were so strict.
I couldn't handle them.
- My goodness. - Did you quit after a year or two?
No, I quit after two days.
- Two days? - My goodness.
Those people were just getting to know him.
Have you thought about continuing to work...
as an extra?
- You should have continued on. - That's right.
Why didn't you do that?
The most I will be is the head of extras.
- The head of extras? - If you work hard,
it will lead to more opportunities.
You can't go anywhere from there.
(He doesn't make an effort.)
We've heard from mom. Let's hear from other family members.
Have you aided your younger brother financially...
without telling your parents?
I haven't told my mom about this.
I did give him a card...
he can use in an emergency.
(He did give him a card he can use in an emergency.)
Did you do that?
- My goodness. - The card is under your name.
- You gave him a card. - Yes.
- Since he drives... - That's crazy.
- a car, - That's crazy.
he could get into an accident.
Ma'am.
- Does he still have that card? - Yes.
Was there a time...
he frustrated the most?
The thing is,
I talked to him about becoming a reenactment actor...
or a musical actor.
I talked to him about it,
but he said...
working as a reenactment actor...
will solidify his image.
- What? - It will solidify his image.
People will only see him as a reenactment actor.
He said he won't make much money.
He also said he can't be a musical actor...
because of his voice.
"Being an actor is all about waiting."
"If you wait, I will be sure to pay you back."
Being an actor is all about waiting.
But if he doesn't make an effort, he will never be...
- an actor. - That's right.
Every time I am frustrated,
I practice pronunciation, vocalization,
and breathing techniques.
- You do that alone. - Yes.
(He is looking for a chance to butt in.)
You need to go out there and challenge yourself.
Why won't you...
(He trails off.)
What? Ask a clear question.
- I tried. - Direct your question to him.
Don't be scared.
- Direct your question to him. - Don't be scared.
You need to go out there and challenge yourself...
if you want to be an actor.
Practicing pronunciation and vocalization alone...
- won't help. - Keep your eyes on him.
Why are you so scared?
(It's hard to be in a variety show.)
Once they brand me...
as a reenactment actor,
I won't get a role in a drama.
I had the same worry.
I felt like performing at the events in the countryside...
or clubs will brand me...
as a certain type...
of artist.
- Go on. - But I told myself that...
those are good opportunities to make my music heard.
- That's right. - Not only that, working...
taught me many things.
My past works piled up and made me...
who I am now.
- That's right. - That's right.
If he doesn't work these days,
what does he do at home?
- At home? - What does he do now?
- Does he practice? - He drinks, of course.
He drinks.
- Does he drink? - Yes.
He drinks. When I go home at 10pm,
there are always bottles on the table.
- Does he drink every day? - Yes, he does.
I go into my room because I don't want to see that.
How much do you drink?
I drink two bottles of soju a day.
(He drinks 2 bottles of soju a day.)
Is that an acting practice?
No, I drink to relax.
Why do you drink?
If I don't drink,
my head gets filled with thoughts.
I have been watching him.
I don't know if he is red because of alcohol.
He is a bit red.
- Alcohol tone. - They call it the alcohol tone.
(The alcohol tone)
Did you drink last night?
- Yes, I did. - I see.
I don't drink enough to get drunk.
- But you drink two bottles of soju. - I wish that was the case.
He goes outside in a drunken state...
- without notifying me. - My goodness.
When I called him at 4am, he said,
"Mom, I am at the hospital."
Apparently, he fell from a cliff.
My goodness.
- Apparently, he fell from a cliff. - My goodness.
He was lying there with a broken leg.
Since he doesn't have a job,
I had no choice but to pay for his surgery.
- He had to get a metal pin. - How much did the surgery cost?
It cost about 2,000 dollars.
My goodness.
You used up your monthly salary.
I had no money left.
Do you still want to drink after what happened?
I was on my way home...
when I saw that the moonlight was beautiful.
(The thought of the moonlight makes him smile.)
You are drunk. You are drunk.
- So... - The moonlight was beautiful.
- You are drunk. - He is drunk.
That was why...
I fell from a cliff while looking at the moonlight.
Once he begins, he doesn't stop drinking.
He said he drinks two bottles.
He drinks more than that.
- He doesn't remember. - When he is drunk,
he can't find the restroom.
One time, he peed in the hallway.
- My goodness. - He doesn't remember it...
once he sobers up.
He is addicted.
When he drinks a lot, his mom scolds him.
- Of course, she does. - "Why would you drink so much?"
Then he goes, "Stop meddling with my business."
He kicks the furniture around.
- My goodness. - When I scold him as well,
he yells at me.
- He yells at you, too. - Yes.
He becomes violent when he drinks.
(He becomes violent when he drinks.)
Your parents are still working.
Don't you want to do something to lessen their burden?
Even if I get a monthly salary,
it will only be enough for myself.
I won't be able to help my mom...
unless I am the head of a department or the president.
Why do you think that?
You shouldn't think that.
How is it that...
you don't think about the process?
- You shouldn't think that. - That mindset will ruin you.
I am sure he knows the situation he is in.
Is there a reason why you can't give up on acting...
even if nothing is going your way?
It's still clear in my memory.
In third grade,
(He hesitates for a second.)
I was bullied.
I was a short and timid child.
I couldn't assert myself.
In Korean textbook, you sometimes get a play.
That's right.
When I acted,
(He acted for the play in the Korean textbook.)
My classmates said, "You are a great actor."
I received a round of applause.
(For the first time, he felt like he became the main character.)
I still remember that exhilaration.
I still remember how I felt.
I think that's why I chase after it...
without giving up.
I see.
It's understandable.
(It was his first time to receive attention.)
Despite that,
you want your son to give up on his dream...
of becoming an actor.
Yes, I want him to give up.
(Yes, I want him to give up.)
Having lived for many years,
I know it's a difficult path.
- That's right. - Yes.
It's a path with no right answer.
It's a path with no right answer,
so I don't want him to go all in.
I want him to use this opportunity...
to give up.
(Won Wook is firm in her position.)
What if your son shows his acting skills...
and the audience goes, "Since he is talented,"
"you should give him another chance"?
Would you be able to support his dream...
for a bit longer?
If he receives an acknowledgment,
I could support his dream for another year.
(Then he will have another year.)
An actor should always be ready...
because an opportunity might arise at any time.
Why don't you show us your acting skills?
- Please do that. - All right.
(How well can he act?)
I will do Lee Byung Hun's last scene...
- in "A Bittersweet Life". - Lee Byung Hun.
(It will be hard.)
(Will he be able to do a good job?)
Stand by.
Action.
(He becomes absorbed in emotions.)
Why did you do that?
Why did you do that to me?
Tell me.
(They hold their breath and focus.)
Did you really want to kill me?
(She watches her son.)
For seven years, I worked for you like a dog.
Tell me.
Tell me!
- Give him a round of applause. - I got goosebumps.
Most people would be embarrassed...
- to act in front of the crowd. - It's nerve-wracking.
I want everyone to say a few words about his performance.
He is good,
but there are a lot of people who are good.
I think he should think about this in a realistic light.
What did you think?
I could do that much.
She is right.
(My goodness.)
I feel bad because your performance...
wasn't bad or anything.
It was quite natural.
- The problem is your attitude. - That's right.
Famous actors like Song Kang Ho, Kim Yun Seok,
and Hwang Jung Min...
didn't appear out of the blue.
They got cast for roles when they had...
a lot of past experiences.
"I will be an actor."
"I won't be a reenactment actor."
"I will be a star."
"To help my mom, I need to be the president."
If you live with those thoughts,
- who will cast you? - That's right.
(If you have impossible dreams, who will want you?)
I am the same.
I didn't pass the comedian exam eight times.
I was getting old,
so I didn't have many opportunities.
I started off as a fill-in at night clubs.
(She didn't have time to get hung up.)
Those jobs didn't have a good image.
Still, I had to live...
my days to the fullest.
I was so hungry...
that I ate leftovers at night clubs.
When I saw rats dart across, I closed my eyes and ate...
because I had to live.
(When I saw rats dart across, I closed my eyes and ate.)
That's what life is.
Since I lived my days to the fullest,
there were people who were watching me.
Then the words traveled.
"There is a good comedienne."
"She is incredible."
The words traveled...
and reached a producer of a broadcasting station.
He asked to see me.
That's how I came to be.
(She entered the comedy industry in the end.)
People dream of winning a gold medal like Kim Yuna.
But they don't think about...
what she didn't eat or do.
Her name is pronounced, "Kim Yuna".
(She acts cool.)
(He butted in without fear.)
(I shouldn't have done that.)
She is scary.
That startled me.
(It's funny to the onlookers.)
Say what you want to say to him.
My son, give up on your dream of becoming an actor...
and find a position at a small company.
I don't ask for more.
I just want you to live well.
I love you.
My goodness.
(She bursts into tears.)
My goodness.
(His eyes turn red as well.)
- Let me ask you this. - Okay.
How much longer must she work at a seolleongtang restaurant for you?
1 year? 2 years? 3 years?
Work one more year, Mom.
Do you want her to work one more year?
(Can't you make up your mind even when she is struggling?)
- Look here. She has tinnitus. - Yes.
She hurt her legs.
Yet you want her to work one more year.
I will give you another chance.
How much longer must she work at a seolleongtang restaurant?
Quit right away, Mom.
There you go.
(I wasn't thinking.)
- There you go. - You also have a drinking problem.
- I won't drink. - There you go.
- Do you mean that? - Yes.
Okay.
(We cheer for his determination.)
(The guests vote.)
Unless the situation changes, it will continue to be a worry.
Between family and work,
the family should come first.
I also think it's a worry.
It's a worry.
It's too early to give up on a dream.
However, his attitude needs to change.
If you think it's a worry, please press the button.
(What does the audience think?)
- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Time's up.
Let's see how many votes the worry received.
(The result)
(How many people thought of it as a worry?)
145 votes? 165 votes?
- 125 votes? - 155 votes?
155 votes.
Out of 200 votes.
This week, "Will Spring Come?" wins.
We will give the winner a 1,000-dollar gift certificate.
Until the day we are all worry-free,
Hello will continue to counsel you.
Thank you.
