We will counsel you on your unspeakable concerns.
National Competition...
- On worries! - On worries!
(National Competition on Worries)
(Welcome)
This is g.o.d's very first unit, HoooW.
It's Son Ho Young and Kim Tae Woo.
Hello.
- HoooW. - HoooW.
- We have our own greeting. - Show us.
We don't need to do it.
- Did you already make one? - Yes.
- I am Ho Young. - I am Tae Woo.
- HoooW. Hello, we're HoooW. - HoooW. Hello, we're HoooW.
- You're so handsome! - HoooW!
Next is Comedienne Kim Seung Hye.
Hello, hello.
Next is SHORRY from Mighty Mouth.
SHORRY!
- Hello! - By the way,
is there a reason why it's just you two?
This is our 20th year since our debut.
- Already? - Yes.
We're the only ones born in the 80s.
You're so young.
I think I'm the benchmark. Those older than me...
have low stamina.
- When it comes to dancing and such? - Yes.
Ho Young is known to keep his promises.
- Why? - We made a promise...
during his debut...
that we'd be single forever.
You two did?
- That's why he's single. - Is that so?
- It's because of that. - He's still keeping up.
That's not easy at all.
Has there ever been a time when you almost broke it?
- No. - I did about 2 to 3 times.
- You did? Not me. - Yes.
- Never? - Never.
(He's so amazing.)
- He's the youngest member, - He looks young.
- but I bet you're not happy... - He's forever the youngest.
being treated as one up until now. He has three kids already.
At times, my kids visit me at the green room.
But the other members still pinch my cheeks in front of them.
- In front of your kids? - Yes.
They see their dad in pain.
I scream, "Don't do that!"
I see. You're having a happy life these days.
- Yes, I'm having... - You're married.
a happy marriage. You see, I've always been crazy about shoes.
- Shoes? - But after getting married,
I started to think more about my family.
From a certain point on, I felt bad about buying shoes.
You're so mature.
- Am I? - Yes.
Yes, I'm mature.
Having that kind of thought is very mature.
Seung Hye is also here.
I heard you were an avid fan of g.o.d since you were young.
I was a huge fan.
I got to meet them in person on "Entertainment Weekly".
- I was so shy. - You must've been nervous.
After the filming, I asked them for photos and autographs.
- I got their autographs. - Really?
- You really got them. - Is that from that day?
Yes, I'm a successful fan.
Which one of them are you the biggest fan of?
Of course, I'm a big fan of every single one of them.
Is he not here?
All right, you're a big fan of one specific member's.
All right.
- I love you all! - Let's say she's a fan of Joon's.
You've created a new unit called HoooW.
It might be a bit embarrassing to perform here in your socks.
But we'd like to hear your new song.
We must hear it.
("Let's Stop Being Friends" by HoooW)
(Pushing)
(Their choreography is full of fun.)
(Your songs are still so great.)
(Let's stop being friends)
(Singing along)
(This newbie group with 20 years of experience...)
(has shown great harmony.)
(That was nice.)
- Thank you. - That was good.
Why didn't you do this move?
- I'll do whatever Ho Young says. - Should we do this?
- Let's stop - Could you sing that part?
(Let's stop being friends)
(HoooW)
Let's stop being friends
(Everyone sings along.)
- Hey. - That was good.
It needs to be included.
- We should've included it. - It's nice.
We'll put it in our live performances.
We have three worries for today. Show us the keywords, please.
(The keywords are revealed.)
- "I Want to Rip Them Apart". - "I Want to Rip Them Apart"?
- "Unwelcome Life". - That's intense.
"Shameful Worry".
"I Want to Rip Them Apart".
Rip what?
Hello, I'm a housewife in her 50s who can't subdue her anger.
I started to have this anger five years ago...
when my husband told me something shocking.
"Honey, I have something to tell you."
"To be honest, I have some kids that I've been hiding from you."
"What? Kids that you've been hiding from me?"
"It's nothing too serious."
"They're my books that are as precious as my kids."
"There are about 65,000 books."
- 65,000 books? - 65,000 books?
He has 65,000 kids?
While running his business, he's been collecting...
- art books. - I see.
He even quit his job...
and opened up an art library with those books.
Oh, my.
The problem is that the books he's collected thus far...
have increased to alarming 11,000.
"Stop buying more books. We have no more space."
"If I don't buy this now, I won't ever be able to buy it."
"If we have absolutely no space, I'll just drill the ceiling."
Those 11,000 books have now become our debt.
- Just looking at them... - Debt?
makes my blood boil.
Please dissuade him from buying more books.
That's her worry.
(Please stop him from collecting them.)
- 11,000 books are a lot. - I know.
I respect all types of hobbies.
But to be honest,
in the past, I didn't understand people who like shoes so much.
I still don't quite understand.
But I just accept that some people can be like that.
- Every person is different. - Right.
Tae Woo,
you used to really like shoes too in the past, right?
It was as if you were going to ask Sean Lee the question.
What does that make him?
I am SHORRY.
- She said "Sean Lee". - "Sean Lee".
I am SHORRY.
- He is... - He's the bike guy.
Didn't she call you Sean last time too?
- She called me Sean again. - Sean.
You should just bulk up like him.
(Like this?)
(He looks sad.)
It's from a lady who is upset...
because her husband keeps buying art books.
Please come on out.
(Who's worried about her husband who dearly loves art books?)
(Jung Soon Geum)
Would you like some water?
You are so handsome.
- As soon as she came in, - She...
she looked really grim, but as soon as she saw Ho Young...
(Ho Young's smile made her smile brightly.)
She quietly said to him,
"You are really handsome."
Ho Young's smile is amazing.
- Right. - He makes you forget your worries.
Right.
(She can't look at him.)
(She's shy.)
Since when has your husband been collecting the books?
How can he have 110,000 books in his collection?
For the past 30 years,
he imported books and sell it to libraries.
- That was his job? - Yes.
He used to run that business.
Looking at art books, he fell in love with art.
So he collected 65,000 art books.
He said he wanted to open a library with these books.
He confessed it to me.
When I heard it, I got really shocked,
and I got bedridden. I said he could never do that.
I said I was completely against it.
He told me to watch him for just six months.
He asked you to trust him.
He asked me to trust him. He said he could do a good job.
So I let him open the library.
Where did he get the money to collect...
the 65,000 books?
- Has she been... - Right.
Where did he get the money?
The way she looks at SHORRY is so different from the way...
- I know. - she looks at Ho Young.
Please look at Ho Young.
- She can't look at him. - Please look at SHORRY.
From here, she looks so different.
- Please look at SHORRY. - "Who are you to ask me that?"
- Did I do something wrong? - No. No.
SHORRY.
(Laughing)
While running the business,
he'd been buying books.
- With the money he earned. - Right. I didn't know,
but with the money he earned,
he bought the books...
and kept them where I didn't see them.
I am guessing it took him about 20 years.
(He hid them for about 20 years.)
- 20 years. - It must've cost him...
a lot of money to rent a storage space.
I guess it did.
We can't grasp how much 110,000 books are.
So we asked her for a video.
Let's take a look.
Those are all art books.
(That's a lot.)
It's really big.
It's huge.
- That's the library. - It's neatly organized.
The books started to pile up.
(Incredible)
(Even the alleys are packed with books.)
There are some artworks in between the books.
(They are amazed.)
That's crazy.
- Those are amazing. - It's huge.
How big is that space?
- 495㎡. - 495㎡.
- 495㎡. - That's really big.
(He didn't just stop at collecting books.)
(He also displays and sells artworks.)
(The library became a cultural space in the district.)
Is there an entrance fee? How does it work?
- How do you get in? - We charge...
- 10 dollars per person. - 10 dollars per person.
I serve them coffee or tea.
- You can stay all day long. - You can stay all day long.
You get the access to all 110,000 books. You can take photos.
You can look at everything. There are a lot of artworks too.
You can read all 110,000 books if you just pay 10 dollars.
- In a day? - Great.
That's a nice deal though.
- Yes. - Theoretically, it's nice.
How many people come in a day?
On average, about 2 to 3 people come.
(On average, they get 2 to 3 customers a day.)
- In a day? - They earn 30 dollars per day.
Oh, dear.
Is that the only source of your income?
Yes.
- It's our livelihood. - 30 dollars.
- It's your livelihood? - Yes.
I'm sure you have to pay for the utilities and rent.
Yes. It costs a lot to run it.
So after running it for five years,
we got left with the debt of 400,000 dollars.
(They are in debt of 400,000 dollars.)
(The size of the debt makes them speechless.)
Two years ago,
despite the fact that I have five children,
I started a book cafe.
- That's a good move. - I started selling coffee.
Hearing it from the side, I can sympathize with her.
If I were her, I would want to...
tear the books.
- Have you actually done it? - At first... I have.
You have?
It was around the time when he was starting the library.
I got so upset. I tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn't give up.
I can't divorce him because we have five children.
My goodness.
So...
Perhaps the five children were all part of his plan.
Let's meet her husband who collected 110,000 art books.
- Hello. - Yes. Hello.
(Who got a huge debt while collecting art books?)
He looks like a really nice man. Right?
He looks like a great man.
Can you understand why your wife is worried?
Yes.
Did you just admit it?
I understand her.
- Because... - We can't say anything then.
If I took a normal path like other people,
she wouldn't have this worry.
I feel guilty for not being able to provide for my family.
Then you should stop buying.
She mentioned that you have the debt of 400,000 dollars.
I run an art library.
There are not many specialized libraries in Korea.
There should be many specialized libraries, but nobody's interested.
So I wanted to do it before I get older.
Right. It sounds like...
you have pride in your work. You have sense of duty...
- and responsibility as well. - We get it.
But do you believe you have to do it...
while incurring debts?
I didn't incur debts because I wanted to.
My plan was to pay it back...
when I earn profit from the library.
- But it's not going so well. - It's not going well.
She says you've got about 110,000 books in the collection.
It's most likely that you actually have more than that.
I hope it's not true.
I won't mention the exact number.
- Really? - I have more than...
110,000 books in the database.
Some unregistered books are piled up in the library.
When I heard your story,
as a man, I admire what you are doing.
Don't say that.
Did you never think about putting a stop to it?
It's not big enough for me.
- It's because... - It's not big enough.
It's Korea's first art library.
It's my dream to make it...
a world-class art library.
Whenever he says something shocking,
she drinks water like it's soju.
(Laughing)
In a month, on average,
how much do you spend on buying new books?
Only I know how much I spend.
I don't tell it to anyone. I get...
some aid from Daegu government to run the library.
Do I have to say it?
You have to say it.
He cleverly avoids...
mentioning exactly how much he spends.
- He just beats around the bush. - He changes the subject.
So how much do you spend in a month?
- This is what frustrates me. - She doesn't know.
- He won't tell her. - According to my plan,
I spend about 2,000 dollars a month. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
But your average income is around 900 dollars a month.
That's not true.
Once in a while, we sell an artwork too.
My goodness. That's such a small income,
- and you don't use it... - You can never pay it back.
to pay back the debts. Because it's such a big number,
you think you can't tackle it.
Since we already borrowed it... Right?
(He doesn't get how serious this is.)
I am curious. When did you find out he's in debt of 400,000 dollars?
Two years ago, someone I know came...
and asked to invest in Bitcoin.
She said I could make 10 times of what I invested.
I thought I would use our house as collateral to get a loan for it.
Upon hearing that, my husband's face hardened...
and said we didn't have money to do that.
- That's... - He had already...
- He had already gotten a loan. - That's why.
That's why he said you didn't have money to invest.
- We couldn't get more loan. - Is it a good thing or not?
You used the house as collateral to get a loan and spent it.
Isn't that wrong? Why didn't you discuss it with your wife?
I think most men of my generation are like me.
She's the wife. I am the husband.
She takes care of home business, and I take care of the outside business.
That's how I've been living my life.
I couldn't go to my wife and tell her about...
my business going badly. It's embarrassing.
(We get that he wanted to be a responsible husband.)
But that dragged on, and now,
your wife is trying to make a living.
In the end, you didn't get to take care of the outside business well.
- You made her get embarrassed. - The trend changed.
(The trend changed.)
- The trend changed? - Yes.
- What trend? - What?
(Is he a trendsetter now?)
You should then change the way you think too.
- You should change too. - Here's my reasoning.
I keep expanding my collection...
because I am convinced that it will be a cultural heritage...
that will benefit the future generations.
But why does it have to be you?
Just the fact that others don't do it doesn't mean...
that I shouldn't do it either.
I can see why his wife is so frustrated.
He's such a smooth talker.
He makes it hard for you to get angry at him.
- Is this how you feel when I smile? - Yes.
I see.
Do you feel sorry now?
If I remember correctly,
famous art books...
can cost well over 5,000 dollars per piece.
Each book can cost anywhere between 100 dollars...
and 20,000 to 30,000 dollars.
(Anywhere between 100 dollars to 20,000 to 30,000 dollars)
- Per book? - 20,000 dollars?
Yes, per book.
- Per book... - Then have you ever...
- bought a 20,000-dollar book? - Do you have any?
Yes, I have.
- What kind of book is it? - Oh, my.
It's a book, not a car.
- Gosh. - I bought...
a copy of the Bible for 2,000 dollars.
It was published in the 1800s.
(It's pricey because it's a limited edition with illustrations.)
We asked him to bring some of the books...
he has collected over the years.
Please bring them on stage.
Oh, my. Please be careful.
- Let's put on gloves. - What's this?
I've only seen these in movies.
- Look at this. - Do we have to put on gloves?
- We have to put on gloves. - There actually are gloves.
We should put them on, right?
- It's unnecessary. - There's a Dali.
Our show suddenly turns into "Authentic Masterpiece".
"Authentic Masterpiece".
Let me put these on you.
- Stay still. - Okay.
Let me sanitize them.
This is a Salvador Dali's pop-up book.
- Oh, my. - Oh, my.
It's a pop-up book.
- This one is even nicer. - This?
- It's by M. C. Escher. - It's third-dimensional.
This is a famous work.
- Look at this. - Oh, no!
(She treats the book roughly.)
- What are you doing? - It's just plastic.
She wants to at least rip the plastic apart.
It's so wrong.
- It's wrong. - Oh, my.
- It's so cool. - It's incredible.
They're art pop-up books.
They're made with artworks by Salvador Dali and M. C. Escher.
- Look. - They're pop-up books.
- Art pop-up books. - Look at that.
There's a huge book...
- It looks so cool. - down here.
- What's this? - It's...
It looks special.
Can you lift it with me?
It's also in the British Royal Collection.
It's a collection of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings.
- Really? - It's so heavy.
- It'd weigh at least 50kg. - Please handle it carefully.
No way.
Be careful.
- It looks very old. - Can you introduce this book to us?
It's a collection of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings.
- Leonardo da Vinci. - It's in the Royal Collection.
- It's his drawings. - Drawings.
- I know Leonardo da Vinci. - How much did this book cost?
It cost 1,280,000 yen,
so at the current exchange rate,
- it'd be about 15,000 dollars. - 15,000 dollars.
- This? - I bought it in 1985,
and it was worth about 20,000 dollars back then.
Let me show you.
Can you turn over the pages?
Did the price go down?
It's Leonardo da Vinci's drawings.
- It's a collection of drawings. - Did it go down by 5,000 dollars?
Drawings like this.
You should look at the details.
There's another book inside it.
This is what it looks like.
Did you buy any of these books without your wife's knowing?
- I bought one a few days ago. - A few days ago?
- A few days ago? - Is that the one?
It cost 880 dollars.
The artist is called...
Lucian Freud. Let me tell you who he is.
He's a grandson of Sigmund Freud's.
The one who wrote "The Interpretation of Dreams".
He's a grandson of Sigmund Freud's.
Even his wife hasn't seen it.
(Every drawing is extremely detailed.)
- They're artworks. - Turn it over.
What's with you?
Why did you stop there?
- Oh, my. - Oh, my.
- Turn it over. - Good that I showed it to you.
Turn it over.
- Be careful. - Sorry.
Is this a guest book?
It's from 1961.
Back then, the dean of the College of Fine Arts of Hongik University...
was Kim Whan Ki. You've heard of him, right?
I've never heard of him.
- How would I know? - He's very famous.
Recently, one of his works...
was sold for almost 10 million dollars.
- Oh, it's him. - Is this by him?
Here are pictures of him. He's the dean.
He's the dean?
Did you buy this book because the picture of the dean?
In addition to that, Hongik University has...
- the country's best art school. - That's right.
(He has bought all kinds of books.)
All right. Please put these away.
Thank you.
(Thank you for showing us.)
Even though we don't know much about art,
after hearing a bit of explanation,
we started realizing...
how valuable those books are.
Are you doing anything to attract more people...
to your library?
I'm not really...
good at that.
These days, social media are very popular.
But my generation is not that good at it.
Your children could help you.
Exactly.
(The conversation ends.)
How old are your children?
Our eldest daughter is 29.
- Gosh. - Our second daughter is 26.
Our twin sons are 15.
Our youngest son is five.
You have five children. You and your husband must be very close.
- I was surprised. - You have many children and books.
(You have many children and books.)
- That's amazing. - Actually,
if you're focusing so much on your library business,
you must not spend a lot of time with your children.
I'm very sad...
that we couldn't pay more attention to our daughters.
These days, I don't even have time to cook for our twin sons.
They often eat ramyeon.
Also, we can't help our youngest son with studies a lot.
He's even gotten zero points on a dictation test.
We've even received messages from his teacher.
I do feel sad about those things.
We should take good care of our children as their parents.
Still,
it's not like I'm doing anything bad and destroying my family.
I just...
(He's comparing himself with the worst possible case.)
You're comparing yourself with the worst possible case.
I just...
As you mentioned, times have changed.
- Shouldn't you support... - You're right.
your wife too?
Why do you only expect your family to support you?
That's what my wife wants.
What I want is, I've been supporting my family for 30 years.
I want my family to support me now.
(I want my family to support me now.)
Who has your wife been living for?
You just said something you shouldn't have said.
I mean, times have changed.
I can think what I want to think, right?
I just expressed what I think today.
It really hurts me.
(What he says doesn't make sense.)
Let's meet their second daughter. Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
(What do their children think?)
- Please answer honestly. - Okay.
Who gives you a harder time,
your dad or mom?
- My mom gives me a harder time. - Really?
At home,
Mom is pretty aggressive.
And I have to deal with it.
Also, I once went on a trip with the money I'd saved.
But Mom criticized me for going on a trip...
when our family was struggling.
My dad usually supports me when I want to do something.
He supports you?
It's not like he does anything special though.
He's not in the situation to do that.
Your daughter says you give her a harder time.
Your second work just said that.
You must feel...
heartbroken.
No matter how much debt we have,
my husband wants to give our kids as much support as we can.
We often fight over that.
Once, our twin sons wanted to go to an amusement park.
Going there once was enough,
but he bought a yearly membership.
- He's very generous. - A yearly membership?
We fought a lot because of that.
He doesn't know how to spend money wisely.
He's a little out of touch with reality.
Even when we had a debt of 400,000 dollars,
he used to give me money to spend every month.
So I thought his business was going well.
- You thought it was going well. - It turned out,
the money was borrowed from the bank.
(He gave his wife money borrowed from the bank.)
It really...
- shocked me. - I see.
Didn't he tell you that he was borrowing money from the bank?
He kept everything a secret.
He said his business was going well.
I didn't mean to deceive my wife.
At that time, my wife stayed at home.
She wasn't interested in my business at all.
You left family affairs to your wife, right?
Then why didn't you listen to her about the amusement park tickets?
You did what you wanted to do.
The thing is, a one-day ticket costs 48 dollars.
And the yearly membership costs 140 dollars.
Still, your wife was against it.
I just thought it was a good deal.
- But you started a family... - It's economical.
with your wife...
- even though you don't realize it. - You're right.
- Your wife's opinion... - I'm sorry.
Yeong Ja.
He wants you to shut it.
(He wants her to stop talking.)
Let's talk to their sons.
- Their twin sons. - What do you think?
When we were little, we rode bikes...
and went to many places with Mom. But after she found out...
that Dad was 400,000 dollars in debt...
- "Since she found out..." - "Since she found out..."
After that, Mom started help Dad with his business.
At home, we don't have much to do.
We just play with our phones. When Mom comes home,
she scolds us for only playing with phones.
I'm not happy about it.
Why do you only play with your phones?
There's nothing else to do at home.
Can't you study or something?
I hate studying.
(I hate studying.)
So did I.
"I hate studying."
Do you look up to your dad for what he does?
What do you think?
(You answer.)
Why are you giving it to him?
"I don't, but do you?"
I look up to him.
Really? Who do you...
relate more to, Mom or Dad?
I relate more to Mom.
(He's on Mom's side.)
Are you on Mom's side?
Yes.
Your fourth work seems complete.
Your fourth work is nice.
- Why are you on her side? - 20,000 dollars' worth.
Dad doesn't have the sense of reality.
Right. He has no sense of reality.
You are right.
People are clapping for him.
(People are clapping for him for saying something so clear.)
You are amazing.
(She's satisfied.)
From your point of you,
in what ways does he lack the sense of reality?
- At what times do you feel that? - He never listens to Mom.
He never listens to Mom.
It's not that he doesn't just listen to Mom. He never does.
(See? Kids know it too.)
Do you think your Mom and Dad fight a lot?
They fight all the time.
I hate seeing them fight.
- Of course. - I asked them...
to fight when we are not there.
They always fought in front of us.
What did your fourth brother say?
He said he rather wants them to get divorced.
It breaks my heart, so I try not to do it.
- Right. - But...
My husband is stubborn.
My two daughters ask me to do certain things.
My twins don't study but just play video games.
My youngest gets zero points in the exam.
All of these things unconsciously...
drive me crazy.
- It must be frustrating. - It makes me get upset...
at the smallest things.
How do you feel...
when you hear something like that?
I think she's overreacting. It's not that bad.
- She's not overreacting. - And...
I am asking how it makes you feel.
What upsets me is that when I ask him something,
he gives me an answer unrelated to my question.
Whenever he's asked a question,
- he gives an unrelated answer. - He gives an unrelated answer.
- That's why I once shouted, - You should...
- give us an answer to that. - "Answer my question!"
Tell us your honest feeling.
As a father, I feel sorry. I am sorry as a parent.
I just feel sorry towards my kids.
I can understand where you are coming from.
But until when do you think you can do what you're doing...
while ignoring the financial situation?
I'm planning for another business I can run along with the library...
which can generate additional income.
If it goes as planned...
What if it doesn't go as planned?
The library will still be running.
Until I die.
(Then will they never be able to get out of the debts?)
(What has his family done wrong?)
Did you think about...
your children and your wife's dream?
My eldest is 29. My second child is 26.
They are adults now.
They can find the dreams of their own...
and grow.
They shouldn't depend on us financially.
And with the three boys,
I will do my best to provide...
a good life for them.
Right. But...
you will do so by incurring more debts.
That's what's putting your wife in pain.
- He keeps getting away. - Before we end it,
please tell her what you want from him.
How do you call him?
"Honey"?
It's embarrassing.
- I never call him "honey". - Then?
He's got a baptismal name.
I call him Simeon.
- And I'm Cecilia. - And you keep fighting?
She fights with him while calling him by his baptismal name.
It's...
Simeon.
I accept your love for books...
and passion for your library.
But our family has to...
live in the real world.
Please stop buying...
more books without telling us, Simeon.
- My goodness. - All right.
She tried to be very civil.
- Yes. - It's a tough situation.
Please tell your wife something.
Make it short and impactful.
- Tell her. - But Cecilia...
(He calls her Cecilia.)
Cecilia?
- She's Cecilia? - Cecilia?
- Cecilia. - "But Cecilia."
- Cecilia. - Cecilia.
Cecilia, I'm not just saying it.
I love you so much. Thank you.
(They are embarrassed.)
You know what to do, right?
- She had a wish. - Yes.
When it comes to books, you should trust me.
After all, I am the director of the library.
No. No.
I will...
try not to buy as much.
What she's asking is that you listen to...
- You should listen to her. - your loved one more.
You clearly said you love Cecilia.
- Listen to your beloved Cecilia. - He said it to buy more books.
- Please listen to her, Simeon. - Please listen to her.
- SHORRY, is it a worry or not? - Is it a worry or not?
I think it's certainly a worry.
Ho Young.
It's a worry.
I also think it's a worry.
My father also said to my mom,
"I take care of the outside business. You take care of home."
"I got this."
Then when the things went out of his hands, he'd say,
"What do I do?"
He said that?
That's it. That's it.
I've seen that so many times.
She had to help him fix the problem.
If you stop carrying...
all the burden alone...
and discuss things with your family,
- things will improve. - Yes.
I think it's a worry too.
If you sympathize with her,
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 she got.
Let's see.
The last digit is five.
Out of 200 people...
(How many votes did she get?)
100...
How many votes do you think you got?
100... 165.
It's a big worry.
(She got 165 votes.)
It's titled "Unwelcome Life".
I need someone to play the husband's role.
(Let's see.)
(Ho Young's chosen as her husband for the day.)
You want to give it a try?
- Let's give it a try. - Let's give it a try.
Hello.
I am a woman in her 30s who is raising a 7-year-old,
a 4-year-old, and an 8-month-old.
It's really hot outside these days, you know.
But the temperature in my house fluctuates like crazy.
"Do you want to take the kids and go to a sheep ranch tomorrow?"
(Her heart races.)
He can be very sweet like this.
"Honey, we are really going to the ranch, right?"
"Never mind. I won't go."
My husband's mood is like a rollercoaster.
I can never expect what's coming.
What worries me more is...
that he's the same to the kids too.
"Don't run. Don't talk loudly."
"Don't do anything."
"I hate you, Dad."
"Come here, darling. Do you want to have snacks with me?"
(He's trying so hard.)
This is why my kids and I...
are always very conscious of him.
When he's happy...
- "You work so hard, honey." - "Gosh."
"Here. You can spend it however you want to."
But after just 30 minutes...
"You wench! You idiot!"
SHORRY is good at swearing.
(SHORRY is dumbfounded.)
(It's funny.)
"You wench! You idiot!"
(He's upset.)
- Hip-hop. - My husband can't...
control his emotion. He's got serious mood swings.
Please get rid of his mood swings.
That's it.
That's what she wrote to us.
What is it like?
- You are married. You have... - Three kids.
3 kids. They have 3 kids too.
I think I can understand.
My kids are...
old enough to talk back.
With my first daughter...
I would turn off the TV at night so that she would go to bed.
Suddenly, she yelled at me.
"Why did you do that?"
"You have to sleep. You have to go to school tomorrow."
"Then why do you watch TV?"
I told her I came home late...
and that I need to watch the news to see what's going on in the world.
She said, "I need to know what's going on in the world too."
She's right.
- What can you say to that? - I couldn't say anything.
That happens.
(His daughter is cute.)
Let's bring in the guest.
(Who's the lady worried about her husband with extreme mood swings?)
[VIU Ver] KBS2 E426 'Hello Counselor' "I Want to Rip Them Apart" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(Jang Yoon Hui)
How bad is your husband's mood swing?
He's mood is like a rollercoaster.
When he's in a good mood,
he gives me the money he saved, sometimes 100 dollars,
sometimes 200 dollars.
When he's in a bad mood, and I ask him if he'd eat, he'd yell at me,
"Of course, I will eat. Why wouldn't I eat?"
- He talks like that. - He throws a tantrum.
He sometimes throws a tantrum.
It's the same when I talk on the phone. When he's in a good mood,
he would sit next to me and join the chat.
But when he's in a bad mood, "Hang up. Why talk so long?"
- His voice tone changes? - It must be tiring to keep up.
My kids are scared of his loud voice.
- What is that? - When he's upset, it gets higher.
What's the intervals?
- Of his mood swings? - To go from good mood to bad mood?
When it's bad, in what interval does his mood change?
Every 30 minutes.
His mood changes in every 30 minutes?
Aren't you traumatized by it?
Does he sometimes snap at kids too?
- During his mood swings? - Yes. He snaps at kids too.
"Don't do it. Don't run. Don't be loud."
He would talk to them nicely a few times.
After a while, he curses at them.
"You crazy idiots."
(He curses even to his children.)
Fathers who are from Gyeongsang Province...
like to say, "Hey! You!"
"Hey! You!"
- They do that a lot. - You are from there.
- Yes. I am from Gumi. - You are from Gumi.
- You must know it well. - I bet he does this...
to his kids.
"Hey, don't do that."
"Don't do it."
"Hey, you! I said don't do it!"
Right.
He must do that.
(He's bothered.)
He's frowning right now.
Let's compliment him a little. Is he handsome?
Why did you marry him? Tell us.
He treats elders very well.
- He's good to elders. - That's important.
- He's especially good to my mom. - He treats his mother-in-law well.
- That's great. - Is he handsome?
- His face? - Yes.
He thinks he is...
He thinks he's good-looking.
(Laughing)
- She suddenly stopped talking. - While she was talking,
she realized she shouldn't say it.
- But he... - He looks cute.
I think he's cute.
Let's meet her husband whose mood is like a roller coaster.
Hello.
(Who could be her husband whose mood changes every 30 minutes?)
How are you feeling right now? Tell us honestly.
We're all very sensitive.
I don't know why I'm here.
She once talked about this show jokingly while drinking.
She said people on this show are ridiculous,
and that none of them could beat me.
What did she mean by that?
Was she saying that her life was better than theirs?
She jokingly says once in a while...
that I'm like a gift set.
- "You drink every day, and..." - Your wife said that?
Yes. In fact, I drink every single day.
She said she applied to be on this show.
Then do you admit what she said?
Well, I said she was right.
I admitted it...
jokingly saying, "I guess anyone can be on that show."
But I didn't know I would be here.
So you admit that you're moody.
I do have mood swings often.
When I get extremely upset, I don't even remember what I said.
When do you usually get upset?
I don't know why she asks me if I want to eat breakfast at 8am.
Sometimes I get angry at her saying she wouldn't even have to ask that.
- Why do you ask him the question? - Every morning,
my oldest child has to leave at 8:20am,
and my second child at 8:30am.
My second child is so stubborn. She never listens to me.
So it takes me 30 minutes just to help her get ready.
- Of course. - That's normal.
I'm so busy in the morning, and he skips breakfast sometimes.
He eats breakfast other times. Sometimes he wants noodles.
I don't have much time to spend with my wife.
- So I... - Does it bother you?
You want her to pay more attention to you?
That's right. We don't have enough time to talk to each other.
Your wife must have struggled to look after three children.
I wouldn't know.
(I wouldn't know.)
(He doesn't care.)
May I ask what you do for a living?
I work in the freight transportation industry.
- I see. - It's hard work.
- It's even harder in hot weather. - It's a stressful job.
If you own a truck, do you need to find work by yourself?
That's right. No one finds work for me.
As smartphones became popular,
- people started using applications, - That's right.
and so there are a lot of competitions now.
I can get the job only when I touch the button.
However, to get a job through an application,
I have to wait for 3 or 4 hours in my vehicle looking at my phone.
- If you look at your phone... - You have to focus on it.
Exactly. I should keep my eye on it.
If I find a good job while looking at it,
and my wife calls me, I feel happy.
But if she calls me at the wrong time,
I say, "What do you want? I'm hanging up." And then I hang up.
There are people in a worse situation.
But it doesn't mean they have no choice but to...
take their stress out on their families when they go home.
I made it clear that I would be in charge of making money,
- and she should do house chores. - That excuse again?
We don't want to hear the same excuse.
- All of our today's guests... - Maybe we should do this outside.
(I'm so sick of it!)
Does your husband show his affection for you when he's in a good mood?
- Sometimes... - No, he doesn't.
He taps my cheek like this while drinking,
he says...
- Is that how he shows affection? - Yes, it is.
- That's how he shows affection. - He expresses his love like that.
- He swears at you? - And that's him showing his love?
- Swearing? - It's how he expresses his love.
"Gosh. You crazy wench."
(Gosh. You crazy wench.)
- He swears at you? - And that's him showing his love?
- Swearing? - It's how he expresses his love.
(Embarrassed)
The problem is that he does that in front of others. Some said...
What does he say if you tell him not to do it in front of others?
He says, "Why? You're my wife."
"Who looks down on my wife? Who is it?"
- They don't look down on her. - Like that?
- He's the one who does that. - It's him.
- You look down on her. - You're the one who does it.
These days, when he swears at me,
I swear back at him.
- But I'm worried... - When you two are alone.
- it might affect our kids. - Of course, it does.
- That's the most important thing. - Her children must be...
the biggest reason she came here.
Why don't you call their names?
Geon Woo and So Mi.
(They're so cute.)
- He's charismatic. - Come on out.
- Hold his hand. - Oh, my.
- They're so adorable. - How cute.
- My goodness. - How cute.
- Look at their son. - He looks happy to see her.
- I mean, - He didn't hold his son like that.
he looked expressionless when he saw his son.
He lifted up only his daughter.
- Exactly. - I can't believe him.
However, his daughter looks like him.
- Oh, my. - She's so cute.
- She looks just like him. - You know...
She's so cute.
- When your dad is in a good mood, - Yes.
how does he act?
He gives me a ride on his shoulders, reads a book to me,
and tells me stories.
(Proud)
- That sounds great. - He's smart.
It seems like he said exactly what he memorized.
However, there are times...
- when he's in a bad mood, right? - Yes.
How does he act?
He's very loud.
His face looks so scary.
- His face looks scary? - What does his face look like?
How? Imitate his upset face.
I can't do that.
- I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked. - Not everyone can do it.
Is your dad very scary when he gets angry?
He's scary enough to make me cry,
and my sister cries too.
- You two even cry? - I see.
Are you on pins and needles around your dad?
We do things without letting him know.
Do you look at him to see if he's in a good mood?
- Yes. - Look at him now.
- Is he in a good mood? - Is he in a good or bad mood?
(Gazing)
I think he's in a good mood.
That's a relief. Good.
He's smart.
Have you ever been scared of your mom as well?
- Yes, I have. - How cute.
- You have? - Yes.
Yes, he's right.
Oh, he's right?
Hey, stop picking your nose.
- Stop picking your nose. - Give the mic to your sister.
Give the mic to your sister.
- Good girl. - Mom.
That's right. She's here. Where's your dad?
Dad is here.
Who is scarier to you? Your mom or your dad?
(Which one of them is scarier?)
Mom is.
(Mom is.)
Both of your children said you're scary.
(I'm sorry, Mom.)
Did you see her husband? Did you see him?
He heard his daughter's answer and made this gesture. "See? I knew it."
In fact, they don't...
even think about me.
They just said their mom is scarier,
but I don't spend much time with them.
They only saw me lying in the sofa on weekends.
I guess that's why they find me to be less scary.
- They see their mom all day long. - They spend more time with her.
How do you feel about hearing your son say it? Be honest with us.
I do know that I should fix it, but...
But you don't think it's serious enough to be on this show?
That's right. I don't think it's that serious.
I understand. Therefore, we invited...
his work colleague who works at the same job.
You do the same work as him. Do you also have extreme mood swings?
I am normal.
I rarely get angry.
- Really? - I don't even swear...
even when someone cuts in line.
- He claimed he has mood swings... - That's a big twist.
because of his work. Do you agree?
Or do you think he gets upset too easily at home?
His mood swings are unusually serious.
- Is he moody at work too? - No, he's never like that at work.
- He's not moody? - Not at all.
Whenever he sees someone in trouble,
he steps in and helps to resolve the problem.
- He's the best at work. - Exactly.
He also volunteers to do...
what other people refuse to do.
But he acts so differently at home.
Sir, it seems that you hold back your anger in front of others.
It's not that I hold back my anger.
Since I'm the head of my family,
I learned from men around Dong Yeob's age...
that a man works outside to bring home the bacon,
and I thought it was normal for a couple to live like we do.
(We're not like you. Don't compare us to you.)
Men from Gyeongsang Province are all like me as well.
But the world has changed.
- The social atmosphere has changed. - The social atmosphere has changed.
- I know... - It's 2019.
how they say the social atmosphere changed, but...
Do you do all the house chores and look after the kids by yourself?
Yes, I do. My husband doesn't eat other people's food.
He can tell if I made the food, someone else made it,
or I bought it.
- Goodness. - He's even picky too.
Yes, he is. So...
He wants soup for every meal. If there's no soup,
he says he can't eat without soup.
He complains like that.
And he wants freshly cooked rice.
- He doesn't eat leftover rice. - That's right.
We don't have an electric rice cooker at home.
- But... - We only have a pressure cooker.
You cook rice using a pressure cooker...
- on a gas stove? - So you...
- do all that... - Yes.
- while looking after three kids? - She does everything he wants.
Yes, I do.
(She's amazing.)
You've heard of postpartum depression, right?
A few months after I gave birth to my third child,
I went to the health center, and I was told...
- that I showed signs of depression. - Oh, no. I see.
So I thought I should do something about it.
When I have a fight with my husband,
I take my anger out on my children these days.
- You do? - Yes.
I thought I should do something about it, so I've been going to...
couples therapy.
So your husband went to the therapy with you, right?
- No. - You went there alone?
Right after the counselling session,
he called me to ask where I was.
I said I went to counselling for depression.
He said, "Gosh. How can that be a problem?"
- "That's so ridiculous." - He didn't take it seriously.
- He just forgot about it. - Just like that?
That makes you sadder than anything else can.
To be honest, I don't even remember...
her telling me about the health center.
(How can he be like that?)
(But he's so nice to other people.)
The writer of this show asked me...
if I knew about it.
I said I had never heard about it.
I found out about her condition two days ago.
(You always ignore what I say.)
When your wife feels overwhelmed by her chores,
she must need you to comfort her. Don't you think so?
I should make a lot of money now.
We have to save as much money as we can. I believe...
it's the most important period for us now.
My wife must be responsible for whatever needs to be done at home,
and I must be responsible for making money.
We have no time to get sick or to take a break.
What is life about?
Life is all about comforting each other when we're distressed.
We can comfort each other when we're in our 50s.
But now we're too busy...
You said you were disappointed when she didn't pay attention to you.
That's true, but...
(Be considerate of me as well.)
The same goes for all couples. They fight a lot over this matter.
"I work so hard to make money, but you can't even handle this?"
My wife and I used to fight like this so often.
But something she said made me...
decide to be good to her.
- What did she say? - "You can at least go outside."
(You can at least go outside.)
That's what she said.
To look after all the three children...
We also have three children. To watch all of them,
she doesn't have enough time to get some fresh air.
- Of course. - When she said that,
I didn't know what to say.
(Honey, I'm sorry I didn't know how hard it was for you.)
(You should help each other.)
(Only he looks expressionless.)
Sir, what are the things...
you sacrifice or you refrain from doing...
for the sake of your family?
I'm the only one in the family who can make money.
That's how I sacrifice myself for my family.
- Because you make money? - Yes.
You endure the stress from work?
In the early years of our marriage,
I went to work on Monday and came home on Saturday.
- You didn't go home? - No, I didn't.
- Did you sleep in your truck? - Yes, I did.
- Because he travels far, right? - Exactly.
- How about now? - Now I can go home...
every other day.
- Now he... - If you go home every other day,
don't you want to play with your kids...
when you go home early?
I do play with the kids for a while when I go home.
Do you mean about three hours by "a while"?
Three minutes.
(Speechless)
- 3 minutes? - 3 minutes? Gosh.
(It's not long enough to say he played with them.)
- 3 minutes? - And you yell for 30 minutes?
It's not easy for me.
Is it hard?
(I want to press the button now.)
There must've been a reason...
- you decided to send us your story. - Right.
My husband tries to work more busily on national holidays.
- Did you say he tries to work more? - Yes.
He has never spent holidays...
with us, his family.
He even told me not to celebrate his birthday.
- His birthday? - Yes.
Is there a reason why you work on holidays?
I don't have a family.
- I have an elder brother though. - I see.
But I started working at construction site when I was 15.
- Then did you live alone? - Yes.
Well... Oh, gosh.
She said you don't even want her to celebrate your birthday.
I think you have your own reasons.
Actually, I found about this not long ago.
I found out at the community center...
that I was born in 1981, but my birth was registered...
in May, 1988.
It's not my birthday.
- You don't know your birthday. - That's right.
It wasn't my parents who registered my birth.
I don't have much memory of my childhood until I was four.
I was raised by my mother until then.
I was taken to an orphanage when I was old enough to remember it.
I see.
While growing up there,
I was separated from my brother too.
- I lived alone since I was 15. - You lived alone.
(He was left alone at the age of 15.)
I used to cry easily just like my wife.
But I must stay strong now.
- You're right. - Absolutely.
That's why I acted like that.
I'm working really hard...
because I don't want my children to grow up like me.
- I understand. - What I went through...
Of course.
Life was so hard for me.
- I fully understand. - It's been so hard...
- to make it this far. Beyond words. - However,
sir, you just said...
you don't want your kids to grow up like you.
But you have your own family now.
(Shouldn't you spend holidays with your family?)
I stay home with my family on holidays.
But you go out for work.
I can just spend one day with them.
(What your children need is you, their father.)
Think that you're the first one in your family.
You should teach your children...
how enjoyable holidays can be,
and make good memories with them. Am I right?
Holding back your tears doesn't make you strong.
If you're determined to make sure the kids won't suffer the same pain,
and overcome your pain, that'd make you truly strong.
Since he's the same age as me, I'd like to...
- Sure. Go ahead. - tell him something.
When time goes by,
you miss the chance...
to give your children happiness that they can only feel at that age.
I believe the small happiness you can give them now...
means much more to them than what you can give them with money.
(Think of what your family really needs right now.)
Even if you earn less money,
I want you to spend more time with our children.
And don't get angry or swear at us when you come home.
Cut back on drinking.
(She wants him to be an attentive husband and father.)
Imagine that the car in front of you...
keeps hitting the brakes on the highway.
Wouldn't it make you anxious?
Yes, it would.
- It would be crazy. - Right?
Your wife and kids have that anxious feeling...
whenever you're home.
(Because they don't know when he'll lose his temper again...)
- That's right. - I came to realize...
that living with anxiety is the hardest thing.
- You can't focus on anything... - She's right.
when you're anxious.
Isn't it just terrifying...
that you want to make your family happier than anyone else,
but you're actually giving them emotional pain?
(But you're actually giving them emotional pain.)
(Can you see the pain they're going through now?)
When she had our oldest child, we couldn't afford the medical bills.
We didn't even have a few hundred dollars for a room in the hospital.
(I felt so sorry toward my wife and child.)
That was the beginning.
I told myself not to look back...
and keep running forward.
I've been living like that until now.
Frankly, I haven't thought how you'd feel.
(I've never thought how you'd feel, honestly.)
I just hoped you would stay strong.
(I'm sorry that I only wanted you to stay strong.)
However, we still have a long way to go.
(We still have a long way to go.)
I'm not sure if it works out for us,
but teach me what I don't know.
(I'll reach out for your help.)
I'll reach out for your help from now on.
Good.
And if some people...
who are watching this think badly of me,
I'd like to say something to them.
Those who hurt others would never know.
But the one who was hurt lives with the pain.
The pain was too much for me to handle.
I think that's why I didn't know how to express my feelings.
(I thought I could just work hard for my family.)
Now that we've said what we feel honestly...
(Help me become a good husband and a good father.)
please help me change.
I'll try my best to follow your guidance.
Tell her that you love her.
Oh, gosh.
(That's embarrassing.)
Just promise her one thing.
Let's live happily together.
(Let's live happily together.)
(If you grow to another level and become a better father,)
(your family will overcome the pain of the past...)
(and become the happiest family in the world.)
- Let's start with SHORRY. - Okay.
I believe that they can become happy...
if they make an effort together.
- I don't think it's a worry. - Okay.
- You don't think it's a worry? - But you pressed the button.
(I didn't mean to.)
From his wife's perspective...
SHORRY turns out to be moody as well.
I hope you will relieve stress by making good memories...
with your wife and children instead of by drinking.
Looking at your daughter makes you smile.
So I hope that feeling will help you relieve stress.
Talk to him as if you're his friend.
But he looks so scary.
- Actually... - No, he doesn't.
The feeling that you had...
as a child...
(She suddenly bursts into tears.)
I don't know why I suddenly started crying.
The feeling stays in the heart until you become an adult.

"Shameful Worry".
Hello.
My name is Kim Hyun Gyeom, and I'm in seventh grade.
These days, I'm afraid to go home.
"I'm home."
What?
While eating...
(Screaming)
While watching TV...
What's wrong?
I get attacked by someone.
It's my 18-year-old sister.
She keeps poking me in my bottom.
(She pokes him in his bottom.)
(Oh, no.)
She's been doing this every day for the past five years.
- Why? - Imagine that.
- But why? - To make it worse, she uses...
special techniques to dig in deeper.
A few days ago, I even saw blood in the bathroom.
"Hey, stop it! I even bled!"
"Seriously? Sorry, but it's too fun."
I couldn't take it anymore, so I made my own safety gear.
But... "Hey, what was that?"
"This time, I'm using scissors instead of just my fingers!"
(Her pranks are getting worse.)
- Scissors? - That's too dangerous.
- My gosh. - It is dangerous.
What's her deal?
It's an embarrassing worry, but please stop her!
(Someone please stop her!)
There are people who enjoy pranks.
Which member likes pranks?
Me?
We played games often.
He's good at games.
It's great and all, but he teases you.
Back then, our skills were incomparable.
- My gosh. - So I told him to keep dreaming...
and encouraged him to try harder.
But suddenly, he started practicing all night.
After much practice, I finally beat him.
I was about to tease him after my victory,
but he said, "I'm done. You're better than me."
(It's so infuriating.)
(Grinning)
That's so annoying!
- My gosh. - Goodness.
I didn't know how to react.
We haven't played any games ever since.
- Come on. - We never played again.
(He's incredible.)
For him, this is a serious worry.
Can he even slide down? Doesn't his bottom hurt?
You're right.
Please come on out.
(Who is the boy who's tormented by his sister's mean pranks?)
- He's tall. - Goodness.
Be careful!
Watch out for your bottom!
Is this such a serious worry...
that you're willing to talk about it to the entire nation?
I'm stressed out about this every day.
My sister is in 11th grade.
But she's been doing this every day at least 10 times.
- So... - She's so diligent.
It's incredible.
She's like an addict.
- An addict? - An addict at poking your bottom?
When our family goes grocery shopping,
she'd do it while I'm pushing the cart.
You must've been holding onto it with both hands.
- Yes. - You were completely defenseless.
- It was so shameful. - Right.
I'd be in pain,
but she'd be so exhilarated and would be dancing.
It must bring her pleasure.
For the past five years,
has her technique been evolving?
- Yes. - Do explain.
This is how we normally do it.
Right. But she digs in and then bends her fingers.
- What? - What?
(It's the so-called hook technique.)
- My gosh. - Goodness.
She doesn't back down and even uses tools.
- She uses scissors and rulers. - Scissors?
- Scissors are too dangerous. - That's too risky.
- Why would she do that? - That's frightening.
That's not a prank.
I was wiping in the bathroom and saw blood.
I was startled.
- My gosh. - You're talking about scissors...
- used to cut colored papers, right? - Yes.
- Right. - Right.
- The ends are round. - Right.
I thought she used scissors used to cut meat.
(It's all about eating for her.)
I've made my own safety gear.
- Did you bring it? - A safety gear?
- How do you use it? - Did you bring it?
- How do you wear it? - Explain this.
This is a handkerchief, and I attached a LEGO piece to it.
Is that to protect yourself from her fingers?
Is it because of her fingers?
(He found a way to protect himself.)
Look.
Once her fingers touch the LEGO, she'll be in pain.
- How do you use this? - He's so adorable.
I place this in between my underwear and my pants.
Could you wear this right now?
You can go down there. Is that okay?
- Yes. - How effective could it be?
You can change over there.
(Where is he going?)
- This is unbelievable. - You can go in there.
Good.
(This is 100-percent real.)
It must've been so stressful for him to have made that.
(He's done.)
- He's back. - He's wearing it.
- You are, right? - Yes.
Come on out.
Are you two friends?
Hold on, are you?
- You're in seventh grade? - Yes.
These generations grow a lot.
- Try it. - I'm sorry.
Hold on. Here I go.
(How effective is the safety gear?)
I see.
(He fingers meet the LEGO piece.)
I see. I felt the plastic. It hurts.
But it's so small and not fixed in place.
Sit down. Can you sit?
No, it hurts.
I see. Then go change.
- There's a downside to it. - Poor thing.
There's a downside.
He can't sit down until she does it.
I'm sorry.
(He's funny.)
Perhaps, she got tired of doing it only to me.
She's been doing it to our mom too.
(Her mom has become a target.)
She does it to your mom?
And how does your mom react?
She doesn't understand why she's become the victim.
She tells her to do it to me.
To do it to you?
That's why she keeps doing it.
- But she looks so cheerful... - I know.
- and cute. - She's pretty.
She doesn't strike us as the type who'd do that.
You're right. She doesn't.
- She doesn't seem like a poker? - No.
Let's meet her now. Hello.
Hello, I'm Kim Je Ra.
(Is she the one who keeps poking her brother's bottom?)
You really don't look like the type to do that.
(She's pretty.)
Do you understand his worry?
No, I don't.
It's just a prank. I don't know why he can't take it.
I've never thought of it so seriously.
But to consider this a prank, it's too harsh.
How would you feel if you were a victim of it for five years?
I wouldn't be too happy.
See?
But don't you think using a pair of scissors is too dangerous?
- He even bled. - Right.
About that blood...
He was going through a constipation season.
I think he bled because of that,
so I told him not to lie and laughed it off.
I guess your brother has such seasons.
I know, right?
Why do you keep doing it?
He's so cute, and I like how he reacts.
- You like his reactions. - I love them.
I knew it. I can relate.
- I can relate. - Right.
(She's glad.)
- I know how she feels. - How do you react?
Do you get very angry or cry?
I get very irritated and shout at her.
Like how? Show it to us.
"Gosh, could you please not?"
Like this.
You're so adorable!
I can understand why she'd want to do it.
- His reaction is cute. - It is.
But when you saw that he's made his safety gear,
wouldn't you have realized how stressed he was?
When I found out, I thought, "Look at this punk."
It makes me want to become indomitable.
- Indomitable? - Yes.
The fact that he made that gear and the way that he reacts...
- encourage her to continue. - Right.
What other pranks does she do to you?
She doesn't like certain vegetables.
She throws them at my face, claiming to feed me.
Does she throw them like this?
Yes. This happened not too long ago.
You know the male vital organ, right?
She kicked there twice.
- Kicked? - Yes.
(Her pranks have no boundaries.)
Why did she do that?
I don't know.
- I don't know how she thinks. - Why would you do that?
- Why? - Why?
Since I'm a girl, I was curious about how much it hurt.
(She was curious.)
You're too mean.
(Dong Yeob can't help but laugh.)
(That's not right.)
But why did you kick him twice?
- You could've just kicked once. - Did you miss?
I missed.
(She failed a 1 shot, 1 kill.)
- That's why. - It could've been dangerous.
It really hurts.
You shouldn't do that.
You stepped over the line.
How did you feel after you saw him in pain?
I realized that it really hurt.
(He's lost for words.)
My gosh. You must be so frustrated.
She looks so pretty...
while she's saying those things.
(With an angelic face,)
(she wasn't hesitant to say such harsh words.)
(She's frightening.)
I have a big scar on the crown of my head.
While playing around with my brother,
I hurt my head, and it bled profusely.
My father said he was scared to death.
- That's understandable. - If you keep doing this,
- it might leave a scar. - Right.
You kept doing it when he bled.
What if he doesn't react?
Then I do it until he does.
Then what if...
a brother who is four years older than you...
pulls a prank on you every day and pokes you in the bottom?
How would you feel then?
- I would hate it. - You would hate it, right?
- Then why... - Why do you do it to your brother?
- Then why... - You would hate it.
I can't stop doing it...
to see his reaction.
- Listen. - It's an addiction.
And Hyun Gyeom...
keeps provoking me.
- This is new information. - Hyun Gyeom does?
- Yes. - How does he provoke you?
He puts his bottom on the gym ball and sways it in front of my face.
Then what happens?
Then I can't help but do it.
"This is my chance."
He is like a deer that keeps wandering...
- before a hunter. - That's right.
(A deer that keeps wandering before a hunter)
A deer that keeps wandering before a hunter.
To put ourselves in her shoes,
we will watch video footage of Hyun Gyeom on the gym ball.
- A deer. - Is there video footage?
Let's see a deer.
(Come on!)
He is provoking her!
(Swaying)
That's how he sits.
(His bottom provokes his sister.)
(Do you get what I am saying?)
- You always film me! - I am not filming you.
(They argue.)
He is provoking her.
My goodness.
(She arms herself.)
(Let's begin the hunt.)
(Oh, no.)
(Run away!)
(She pokes him repeatedly.)
She poked him repeatedly.
It hurts to get poked by a sharp edge.
I am glad he brought this worry to the show.
Some people can be mean to their family members...
because it doesn't get out.
But the family members should respect each other.
- That's right. - That's how it should be.
You need to be respected by your family...
- to be respected by society. - That's right.
Hello, ma'am.
Hello.
(What does their mom think?)
Your son brought his worry to Hello.
What do you think?
I never thought of it as a worry,
so I was a bit confused when his story got chosen.
(Sad)
To me, he seems like a child.
He isn't going through puberty yet.
One time, he asked me why I had a daughter like his sister...
and ended up giving him a hard time.
I thought he was whining.
- But he is struggling. - I didn't think much of it.
He sent his story to Hello...
because he couldn't stand it anymore.
That means things have been hard on him.
(He is sad that no one gets him.)
- That's right. - She has poked you in the bottom.
When Hyun Gyeom began to wear the safety gear,
she did it less to him and began to do it to me.
I was so upset that I scolded her.
So...
- It upsets Hyun Gyeom too! - Why can't you see that?
She does it with more force to Hyun Gyeom.
You told her to do it to Hyun Gyeom.
I thought the two of them...
- were joking around. - I see.
Don't you think it's too dangerous when rulers and scissors...
- are involved? - It's really dangerous?
I am sure they are dangerous,
but they usually get along.
(She doesn't understand the gravity of this situation.)
She takes good care of her brother.
How does she do that?
He tells her the worries he can't tell me.
- Does he tell his sister? - Yes.
She buys him things and food.
Ever since they were little, I taught them that...
the younger one should listen to the older one...
and the older one should look after the younger one.
That must be why Hyun Gyeom suppresses his anger...
instead of fighting back...
in an unjust situation.
Is your mom right?
Yes.
Judging from the way you tell her your secrets,
- she must be nice to you at times. - I know.
Those secrets will get me scolded if my parents find out.
You had no choice.
That's why I told her.
(The siblings were very close when they were younger.)
She doesn't buy me tasty food.
When people give her food she doesn't want to eat,
she just throws it at me.
- Does she throw it at you? - That's not true.
When he wants to eat something, I give him my card.
What?
I don't remember that ever happening.
(What is he saying?)
Look at her facial expression.
You will get your bottom poked more when you go home.
Until when will you pull this prank?
I need to study when I am in 12th grade,
so I will probably stop then.
- My goodness. - You will probably stop then.
How would you feel...
if she continues to do this when you are in high school?
I think I will explode someday...
and become distant.
I know that. That's why I am doing it now.
When he grows up, he will be bigger than me.
Why do you do this to your brother?
(What should I do?)
As his mom and sister said,
Hyun Gyeom does look young.
However, a person becomes mature...
by experiencing other people respect...
his or her opinions.
Do you respect your brother's opinions?
I don't think I do.
Do you see him as a middle school student?
Do you see him as a younger child?
I see him as a kindergartner.
That's the problem.
- That's an important factor. - He looks funny in a uniform.
- It's just fun. - He is in pain.
It's fun to see him in pain. When I pull a prank...
(This is unbelievable!)
(She becomes wary of the audience's reaction.)
- When I pull a prank... - Ma'am, you want to hide, right?
(My goodness.)
- Yes. - You should scold her.
(It looks like the mom's intervention is needed.)
He can't talk back to his sister.
Up to this point,
I have always looked at the matter through my daughter's eyes.
But I think I should look at it through my son's eyes too.
Right now, your daughter's opinions don't matter.
- The victim's opinions matter. - That's right.
(I am sorry, my son.)
We have a lot of pranksters on Hello.
They often think the other party likes those pranks.
That's never the case.
This could make him resent or hate his sister...
for the rest of his life.
Aren't there bullies who pick on other students...
in your class?
- Yes. - They don't listen to the others.
That's who you are!
(That's who you are!)
That's who you are!
(Yeong Ja's comment is refreshing.)
But it's too...
(But it's too...)
You are being selfish.
- Yes. - You want to do whatever you want.
- She is addicted. - She thinks of you...
as a baby or a child.
"I love you, but this is hard on me. This makes me uncomfortable."
You need to have a serious talk with your sister.
- Today, - That's right.
you should listen to him in all seriousness.
Tell your sister what you want.
It would be impossible for you...
to stop poking me in the bottom altogether.
She needs to stop altogether. What are you saying?
She needs to stop altogether.
- Tell her what you want. - Seriously.
You need to make her stop.
He became used to it.
Let's hear what he has to say.
- He's brainwashed. - He is so cute.
He is so nice.
Maybe you could do it once a day.
(Maybe you could do it once a day.)
(Oh, yes!)
(Don't say that.)
He is so cute.
Can you stand it once a day?
Yes.
(He is so nice.)
Know your wrongdoings...
and respect my opinions.
Hyun Gyeom, I am sorry for pulling so many pranks on you.
I won't do them at home. Let's see how it is at home.
- That's scary. - "Let's see how it is at home."
She will wait until they are home.
- "Let's see how it is at home." - What does that mean?
Will you eat a late-night snack with him?
I didn't mean anything by it.
(Laughing)
It sounds ambiguous.
(We will be nice to each other from now on.)
Let's start with SHORRY.
When I was little, I fought with my brother a lot.
We only became close recently.
I hope you wouldn't do that to your brother.
- That's right. - I hope you would be close.
Their relationship is good when she doesn't pull pranks.
I think it's a worry.
I don't think it's a worry.
This could be a memory...
the two siblings can talk about...
- in the future. - That's right.
I think it's a worry.
If you think it's a worry to him,
please press the button.
(What does the audience think?)
- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
