(All the Butlers)
(May, the queen of seasons with beautiful verdure)
- Hello. - Hello. (The members excitedly come...)
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello. (to today's meeting place.)
We're coming here often lately.
Goodness. (It's a theater with a big screen.)
We always come here to watch a video.
(This place is...)
- Do you come here often? - We come here...
- when we meet a big master. - A big master? (like a sacred place for great masters.)
Yes.
In one of the scenes,
there was today's master. (The great Master Lee Young Ae)
Wait. (And)
(Master Moon So Ri and Jang Joon Hwan for the 100th special episode)
- Her husband is here. - What do you think you're doing?
(It's the place where great episodes began.)
I can't wait.
We should look forward to it.
Congratulations on your comeback, Eun Woo.
- Thank you. - Eun Woo. (Congratulations on ASTRO's comeback.)
I saw your name on portal sites all day yesterday.
It's "Knock", right?
- Oh, yes. - Knock knock.
- Yes, "Knock". - Listen.
- He looks cool there. - Ever since Eun Woo joined,
many people are saying our show became fun to watch,
and that they can't wait to watch the show.
What does that say about Dong Hyun?
- It's fine. - What about Dong Hyun?
That reminds me, we have Dong Hyun too.
No. I'm just here nice and quiet. (Dong Hyun, good at covering up)
It's like you've been with us the whole time. (His presence is like that of an original member.)
Are you okay?
I know that.
- I have something for you. - Isn't that a cooler?
- What? - That's for ice cream.
That's the ice cream box.
Do I just take it? (Lifting at a breath)
- Wait. It's light. - It's light. (What's inside?)
- Is it light? - It's light.
It's about the weight of five ice cream bars.
(He's an ice cream lover.)
- Five ice cream bars? - Yes.
- Let's open it. - Can I open it? (Why is a cooler here?)
- Shall we? - Yes.
- What is it? - Wait.
- It's a mic. - A mic?
It's a mic and a note. (A mic and a note)
Is the master a singer? (Is the master singer?)
Or a host? (Or a host?)
What does it say? (And there's a piece of paper.)
What's a supply list?
He sent us a supply list.
(List of supplies)
"Number 1 liquor. Number 2 meat. Number 3 vegetables. Sauce."
(Things to eat and drink)
It looks like a list of things for some membership training.
- Are we going somewhere? - It's a trip. (Is it an excursion?)
He's very picky about the liquor.
(The list looks quite complicated.)
"Soju, 15 tonic water, 2 bags of ice, 10 ice cups,"
"1 bottle of lemon juice, beer, 3 1L bottles of water,"
"Coke Zero, pineapple flavor soda". (Zero-calories soda and pineapple)
(The list sent by the unknown master shows the master's firm taste.)
It's not just kimchi.
- It's not just ripe kimchi. - What is it?
"Cabbage kimchi from a specific brand". (The brand is clearly indicated.)
That's what it says here. (It's amazingly detailed.)
It's nice to go on membership training.
(It's nice to make an excursion,)
- He seems meticulous. - I know.
- He sounds meticulous. - Yes. (but it'd take a long time to buy all of these.)
We don't have much time.
So we prepared all that in advance.
The groceries? (They appreciate it.)
- Yes. - Right.
We got everything on the list, but...
(You prepared them, and...?)
How many coolers are there? (The staff members bring coolers.)
There are five? (There are 5 coolers.)
- What's going on? - That's so many.
That's too many.
(Are the items separated into 5 coolers?)
Only one of these coolers has the supplies.
(Only 1 of them has the items inside.)
- But... - Something sounds fishy. (Anxious)
What did the master say in the note?
"Warm up your voice."
(The master sent an order in handwriting with the list.)
Now, you're going to sing with a karaoke machine.
If you get over 90,
you'll get a chance to open a cooler. (When they get over 90 points,)
(they can choose and open 1 cooler.)
If we don't get over 90, we don't even get a chance to see it?
- No. - I see.
But we have so many singers.
Oh, we only have two.
- Singers... - This is... (There are two singers and Seong Rok, the musical actor.)
I used to run a coin karaoke.
Really?
- What haven't you done? - Did you wrap it up?
When did you fight in the UFC then?
(When did you play the martial arts?)
While I was in the UFC,
I had to worry about my future. When I was a UFC fighter, (Dong Hyun is an entertainer and a former owner of coin karaoke.)
I realized I couldn't last long with getting beat up. (He realized it was necessary to prepare for his later years.)
- So I opened a coin karaoke, - Really?
and my mother is running it now.
- Really? - That's awesome.
Let me give you a tip. If you want to get a high score, (A helpful tip from a former coin karaoke owner)
you have to watch the coloring closely. (You need to look at the coloring of the beginning and the end.)
You start singing when the coloring starts and stop when it stops.
You must be exact.
By coloring, do you mean...
- the letters... - The letter colors.
- The letter colors. - The letters.
Then no ad-libs?
- Exactly. - I should stick to the original? (That's right.)
When the coloring stops, you must stop.
The start and the end. (He got the tip.)
- Got it. - There. (He looks like an expert.)
We're going to pick the song.
(The production crew will choose...)
It will be something related to the master. (the songs related to the master.)
It's related.
You should pick the song...
because if we get to pick a song,
- we'll keep getting over 90. - Right.
I'd score 100 and open all 5.
- You wouldn't score 100. - What?
There's no way you'd score 100.
- 100? It's nothing. - That's hard.
Scoring 100 is very hard. (Seung Gi thinks they can get 100 points.) (Se Hyeong thinks it's impossible.)
It's not a problem.
I'd get 100 even if I sing like this. (It's possible even when I sing halfheartedly.)
Flex.
That's not how it works.
Don't underestimate it.
Come on. If I don't get 100...
for my own song, that's ridiculous. (I can surely get 100 points if I sing my song.)
Let's do a bonus round after this.
What will you do if you don't get 100 for your own song?
- I... - That's... (Flustered)
What will you do if I do get 100?
- If you get 100? - Yes.
- That's... - I'll pay for a team dinner.
Do you want to bet for a team dinner?
How about 99?
No, 100. (He gets competitive.)
Eun Woo is thinking, (It's been a long time since Se Hyeong and Seung Gi competed.)
"What are they doing?"
(The newcomer is surprised to see their intense competition.)
This will be an extra round. (Okay. Go ahead.)
I think you're going to pay for it.
No. (He has a bad feeling.)
All you have to do is get the coloring right.
Then you'll get 99 points.
It's my song. Why would I check on the coloring?
Even if it is, you still have to. (Mr. Crayon appears again.)
But it's my song.
I'll tell you.
"Stop. Keep going." (The expert is confident.)
But it's my song.
That machine doesn't know it's you. (Logical)
- Right. - So you have to listen to me.
All right. (Okay. I'll show you.)
This will be an extra game. (It'll be on soon.)
The song will start now.
- You can sing it if you know it. - Okay. (The mission to get 90 points starts now!)
We all know this one.
- "I Know"? - Shouldn't we all sing this? (The 1st song on the master's hint playlist) ("I Know" by Seo Taiji and Boys)
- All of us know. - Who will it be?
Seo Taiji and Boys made the debut 20 years ago, (It's the title song of their 1st album released in 1992.)
(It's a historical and game-changing hit song in Korean songs.)
and they've revolutionized pop music in Korea. (How is it related to today's master?)
K-pop industry only had ballad songs, ("Seo Taiji and Boys Made a Cultural Revolution With Their Music")
and everyone was shocked. ("Seo Taiji Marked a New Era in Korean Popular Music")
The teenagers who ran away from home... ("A Runaway Teenager Comes Back Home After Listening to "Come Back Home")
("Seo Taiji and Boys, and Generation X")
even came back home.
- Seo Taiji and Boys! - Congratulations. (The president of culture, Seo Taiji)
Congratulations.
(Congratulations)
In 1, 2. (It's Seo Taiji.)
In 1, 2, 3.
(Here comes Rok Taiji and Boys!)
(They're so excited.)
Is that the end of the first verse? (They can hear the shouts of the girls.)
I know this part.
- Is this the only part you know? - Yes, it is. (It's the song released when Eun Woo wasn't born yet.)
- Don't you know the rest? - It's the only part.
(The Generation X member is immersed in it.)
He got the coloring wrong.
(The sing-along part begins.)
(They forget about the mission.)
(They're absorbed in their feelings.)
Stop!
He got the coloring all wrong. (Does he believe in the color theory?)
(How many points will he get?)
What is it?
Only 85 points? (85 points)
What is this?
(Stepping backward)
But he was singing really well in the musical.
(He can't open the cooler now.)
And he didn't even get the coloring correctly.
- My memory was blurred. - Was it? (I was too excited.)
It's been a long time.
Give us the next song. (Let's move on.)
All right.
Number 914?
Is this... (The 2nd song on the master's hint playlist)
- The first part is important. - With this one,
("A Leopard of Mount Kilimanjaro" by Cho Yong Pil)
you'll get 100 points.
You just...
have to say it.
Okay. (How are Cho Yong Pil and the master related?)
Do you know it? Okay.
(It's one of Cho Yong Pil's masterpieces.)
(It has a long narration.)
(It's good to brighten up the mood in a karaoke...)
Have you seen a hyena roaming around (if you can impersonate Cho Yong Pil.)
The hyena looking for dead meat
At the foot of a mountain
I want to be a leopard Not a hyena
He's good.
On the snow-covered Kilimanjaro
I want to be that leopard (Serious)
Pronounce it correctly.
He's singing it for real. He's not trying to be funny. (Se Hyeong is not being funny even though it's a variety.)
(You are...)
(a monster created by the desire for points.)
It'll be worst if he can't get high points. (Slandering Se Hyeong in front of him)
He couldn't get the points nor be funny. (Eun Woo joins.)
This is about to be edited out.
You might not be able to watch this on the show.
Watch carefully.
- I'll have to remember it. - Yes. (His eyes are sparkling.)
This is usually edited out.
(Getting a lesson on how to be edited out)
What?
- 35 points? - 35 points?
(What?)
What happened?
What? (He failed both in being funny and getting points.)
- Hey. - Hey.
I've never seen anyone get 35 points. (He's the one to be blamed.)
Just 35 points? (The owner of a coin karaoke hasn't seen such points.)
That was so...
I've never seen anything like this. Now, this won't be edited out.
You were about to be edited out,
- but this just prevented it. - Now it won't be.
Give us the next song. (They consecutively fail in getting 90 points.)
Let's go. (What's the next song?)
What's this?
- It's a song by BTS. - How do you sing this one? (The 3rd song on the master's hint playlist)
("Boy With Luv" by BTS)
- Eun Woo knows this, right? - He should.
I don't really know. (Seo Taiji, Cho Yong Pil, and BTS) (The playlist has songs from all the generations.)
This is...
Can we sing it together?
- I know this a little bit. - Really?
- Can we sing together? - I know it.
(A song by BTS released in 2019)
(It recorded over 100 million views on YouTube.)
(It begins with Jimin's sweet voice.)
I know this.
Se Hyeong, you're a fan. (I know the song.)
- I don't know this one that well. - I do.
- Can I sing it? - Dong Hyun!
(You said you know this song.)
Are you serious? (His voice sounds rather sour than sweet.)
(He failed in getting the beat right.)
It's "text," not "next."
(Eun Woo comes in to help.)
You should have sung it earlier.
(Se Hyeong and Jimin invades at the highlight.)
(Jimin sings with his fists clenched.)
He knows this part.
(A mess)
(Eun Woo saves the song.)
(Clear voice)
(He tries to get in the middle.)
Don't sing it if you don't know. (Se Hyeong stops him right away.)
(Eun Woo in his 20s carries the team.)
Even BTS won't be able to do this. (The 3rd song was difficult. How many points did they get?)
- It's really long. - That was tough.
(100 points)
It's 100 points!
That was tough.
It's 100 points!
(Both the one who sung the song hard...)
(and the one who sung it well are surprised at the points.)
It's 100 points!
- How did this happen? - This is great.
- This is great. - How?
We did it.
How did we get 100 points?
It's the actual score. They can't fake it. (Yang Yong Pil, a new record holder of 35 points)
I think...
it gives us higher points if we mess it up.
I figured it out now. With the next song, (The hero of a mess strategy)
- Okay. - we have to stop...
- trying to sing well. - Just give up. (I was being too gentle.)
Keep making noises.
- We get high points if we're loud. - Okay. (Happy)
- Now... - We can open one. (They finally get a chance to open 1 of 5 coolers.)
- Okay. - We have to choose.
I think we should let...
Dong Hyun choose it.
- Why? - He might pick the right one.
It's psychological warfare.
It's my job to look into the opponent's eyes...
in a fight to figure out what he's thinking, right? (A fighter has to win psychological warfare.)
I'll look into the producer's eyes and pick the right one...
(He can notice what's on the production crew's mind...)
at once. (and find the items within two chances.)
Or in two attempts.
What's your choice then?
Psychologically... They should have thought about it.
"Where should we put it?" (Trying to be in the production crew's shoes)
"We can't put it in the first box, right?"
(Being in the production crew's shoes)
"And not the middle one."
"It's right in the middle."
So it's either this one or this one.
That's what I thought too. (The fighter predicts it's either the 4th or the 2nd cooler.)
- Right. - It's not the last one.
What if they put it in the easiest one to surprise us?
I don't think they thought about it that deeply. (The production crew)
I think it's this one. (Tempted)
- What if... - They attracted our attention... (Logical)
and brought the real one last.
You can pick one, Dong Hyun.
- The 4th one. - The 4th one. (Stun Gun who took 6th place in the world chooses the 4th one.)
The fourth one?
It's a 20 percent chance.
Let's do it.
- We'll see. - In 1, 2, 3.
In 1, 2, 3.
- This is it. - This is it.
Wait.
I think it's over.
- But the song was... - There's a mic. (A mic and a card?)
Will it be a dud or...
- Can I open it? - Open it. (Is the result written on the card?)
(Congratulations on your dud!)
- "Congrats on your dud." - What?
I thought I got the right one.
I only saw "Congrats." (Goodness)
It was a dud.
You guys are better than I thought. (Embarrassed)
As soon as he picked the wrong one,
I decided not to listen to him from now on.
- You've been... - I mean... (Ashamed)
- given a huge chance, - But...
and you've disgraced me.
No, I'm not even good at it, and you kept praising me.
(Shamelessly accusing him)
I'm not good at this.
- I thought... - But you accepted it.
I was actually surprised.
Why do you act like you're bad at it now?
- I'm going to... - It was so sudden.
Then you should have said no when I praised you.
It felt good.
Tell them to trust me once more. (Whispering)
I'll choose the right one.
(Will they get over 90 points with the next song?)
Give us the next song. (The 4th song on the master's hint playlist)
- It's "Tell Me." - "Tell Me." ("Tell Me" by Wonder Girls)
They're all famous songs.
("Tell Me" made Wonder Girls the group of the nation...)
(after its release in 2007.)
(Their retro dance and addictive chorus...)
(caused a national sensation.)
I know this one.
How did it go? (They automatically begin to dance to the song.)
I used to dance this a lot in the past.
- In the past, - It's been so long. (You could be popular if you knew this dance at that time.)
you could be popular if you knew this dance.
Right. (How the popular kids were back in the days)
(The unpopular ones)
Right. (Here comes All the Wonder Girls.)
- Who's going to sing? - Se Hyeong.
It's the female's pitch.
Sing it.
Everyone.
(In dissonance)
Everyone!
(He doesn't know the lyrics.)
(Fresher than ever)
(A middle-aged man)
(His arms and legs look broken.)
It's too high. We need the male's pitch. (We need a male's pitch to get higher points.)
(Impossible to sing high notes)
(A conventional way to adjust the tone according to vocal cords)
(A support for reaching high notes)
We're going to get 100. (Everyone shows off their karaoke talents.)
(Will they score higher than 90 points?)
We're going to get 100.
It's 81. (You're perfect right now. Sing one more song that way.)
- What? - What is this?
(81 points?)
- What is this? - Why is it 81?
(Unbelievable)
My gosh.
That was too high. (In despair)
This isn't fair.
How can you make us sing it in the female key? (He raises an objection.)
Let us open one cooler. (They can't sing in a female's pitch.)
We can't just open one. We will do something cute.
Okay.
- Let's do it. - Let's do it.
1, 2, 3.
- My goodness. - My goodness.
(Acting cute in order to open the box)
- My goodness. - My goodness.
(Forced acting cute of Director Shin)
Let us open one?
Choose one.
This time...
This is a hard-earned chance. We have to be careful. (Which box will they pick?)
Number two. (He's certain about number 2.)
- The 2nd one? - The 2nd one.
Let's go with the second one. (Intuitive Dong Hyun guessed it,)
The second one? (but they never picked number 2.)
If we don't get it again,
we will be done for. (Will the master's materials be inside?)
- Here we go. - We will be done for.
I told you!
(They pick the master's materials.)
I told you! (Marveled)
I told you it was the second one.
- I told you it was either 2 or 4. - It was the 2nd one. (They obtain materials thanks to Dong Hyun's guess.)
- There's pork belly. - Pork belly. (Pork belly, sirloin, pork neck, sausage, lettuce, sesame leaves,)
- Sausage. Spicy ramyeon. - Ramyeon. (chili, bell peppers, ssamjang, ramyeon, rice, salt,)
Perilla leaves, chilies, and lettuce. (scallion salad sauce, sesame oil, salt with herbs, kimchi, garlic...)
- We got everything. - We got everything. (Everything is prepared.)
- We don't have to check it. - Time for the big match.
All right.
Look how confident Seung Gi is. (Smiling)
I know what this karaoke machine likes.
All right.
What will you do if you don't get 100 for your own song?
(20 minutes ago)
What will you do if I get 100?
- If you get 100? - Yes. (What will you do if I score 100 points?)
- That's... - I'll pay for a team dinner. (All the Butlers team dinner)
Do you want to bet for a team dinner?
I'd get 100 even if I sing like this. (If Seung Gi scores 100 points, they're treated to dinner.)
- If I get 100, you will pay. - I will pay. (If he scores 100 points, Se Hyeong pays.)
- If you get below 100. - Then I will pay. (If he scores below 99, Seung Gi pays.)
Whatever happens, it's good for you. (The staff benefits either way.)
Seung Gi, which song will you sing?
- You have to choose a song. - You have to choose your own song. (Which song will Seung Gi sing?)
It would be strange if I don't get 100 with this song.
It will be like a pride war between me and the machine. (Karaoke machine versus Seung Gi, a competition of pride)
Are you really singing that song?
- This is the big match after all. - All right.
I will sing my debut song.
(Seung Gi's debut song)
- I love this song. - I never sing this at karaoke.
- It must be my first time. - I love this song.
I got goosebumps.
(It made all women's hearts flutter in the early 2000s.)
("Because You're My Woman" by the nation's little brother)
(It's the beat for captivating women's hearts.)
(The middle-aged man gets emotional.)
(Anticipating)
He's actually singing it.
Eun Woo, he's singing it very seriously.
(Singing wholeheartedly)
Look. He's sweating.
(He sings his first and the most famous song with sincerity.)
(Seung Gi is sweating.)
(Watching in front of the karaoke machine)
(He's very nervous as Seung Gi comes back as a singer.)
(After coming back as a man, he sings more passionately.)
(Moved)
Okay. (Impressive ballad singing of the nation's little brother)
All right.
(What will be the score?)
(It has to be 100 points.)
- All right. - Okay.
Nice. (97 points)
(You sang so well that Jin Young fainted.)
(Biting his lips)
(Seung Gi will treat everyone to dinner.)
(Se Hyeong and Seung Gi's karaoke contest of the century)
You have to treat everyone. (Se Hyeong wins.)
You are the winner.
All right. I will treat everyone.
(The staff thanks him for his singing live.)
I made this happen.
(You're welcome.)
Seung Gi is the best.
(Seung Gi sings and pays for team dinner.)
Now, we have to meet the master.
(The master told them to warm up their voice.)
Your vocal cords are all warmed up, right?
- They are not just warmed up. - Our voices have gone hoarse.
The songs you just sang are...
(The selected songs a moment ago.)
the songs that ranked first on the music charts...
(In the history of K-pop,)
for the longest times in the history of Korean pop music. (the songs stayed in 1st place the longest.)
"I Know" by Seo Taiji and Boys which ranked 1st for 11 weeks...
("I Know" by Seo Taiji and Boys stayed in 1st place 11 weeks.)
ranks second. ("Can't Find An Oriole" by Cho Yong Pil, 10 weeks)
("Boy With Luv" by BTS, 9 weeks)
Today's master has the record that surpasses that record. ("Tell Me" by Wonder Girls, 7 weeks)
(The master broke these records.)
- His song ranked 1st for 14 weeks. - I know. I know.
(The longest record in K-pop history)
- For 14 weeks. - I know. I know.
People from my generation would know him.
- Someone ranked 1st for 14 weeks? - Of course, I know. (Everyone in our generation knows this legendary singer.)
I know.
His song ranked 1st for 14 weeks, and this record made it to... (His song placed 1st for 14 weeks.)
- Guinness World Records. - Guinness World Records. (He's listed on Guinness World Records.)
- That's him. - I know. I know.
- Guinness World Records? - 14 weeks with 1 song? (A singer that outran Cho Yong Pil and Seo Taiji and Boys)
Yes. 14 consecutive weeks.
- Guinness World Records? - He's got the record...
that can't be found anywhere else.
Seven of his albums became million-sellers consecutively.
It means more than a million copies of each album were sold.
It's a record you can't get these days. (The 1st national singer to sell 17 million album copies)
It's incredible.
Selling a million copies is every singer's dream,
(Million seller title is every singer's dream.)
but these days, singers doubt if it's even possible.
- That's what idol singers think. - Then today's master... (The master reached this goal 7 times in his career.)
There is only a handful of masters...
who can have such a record. (They can guess who the master may be.)
It must be him.
I grew up listening to tapes.
- Right. - Street Chart.
- Street-board Chart. - I remember...
turning off the light in my room... (I remember falling asleep while listening to the master's tape.)
and falling asleep with a tape player next to my ear.
- I remember. - I really did that.
It cost about 2 to 2.5 dollars each. (Today's master is in everyone's memory of the past.)
If it's the person I am guessing...
I used to listen to his songs every night before sleeping.
(Seong Rok's camera)
I'm his huge fan, and I'm so excited to meet him.
I can't wait to meet him.
I know the building owner.
Isn't the owner of this building the person we are going to see? (Is today's master the owner of this building?)
If he's the one we are guessing...
I don't think he's been...
on many variety shows.
Dong Hyun is the strongest one. (Will we meet the legendary recluse of variety show today?)
- I will carry it. - You have to change shoes.
It's a recording room. (What welcomes the members is...)
Is this where he records his songs? (an empty studio.)
There's a karaoke machine too.
It's really nice.
He set this up for himself. (Many albums)
(Does he collect albums?)
Right. (Keyboard and microphone)
I can tell it's going to be someone incredible. (Is he a composer?)
The guitar looks expensive. It's an expensive one, isn't it? (Expensive instruments)
(Who is the master?)
(Is the owner of this empty studio today's master?)
Would he record songs here? Or is this for practice?
- I think this is a recording room. - Right. (It looks like a real recording studio.)
- It's amazing. - I'm sure his artists record here.
I am curious about how they record songs. (Does the agency record as well?)
It'd be nice if my agency had a studio like this.
- It's a dream. - It's not easy...
(What is this sound?)
to have a recording room like this.
(Little by little behind the wall,)
(they hear a melody.)
(Keyboard and sound equipment in his personal office)
(Who is the master surrounded by music?)
- Are they inside? - Yes.
- Should we... - From the right side,
I heard the piano.
He's planned a lot of things. (He tried to set things up.)
This is why he made us come in here. (Follow the master's set-up...)
- Let's go there. - Let's go. (to meet the master.)
Shall we go to the next room?
Where are you, Master? (Just the record is overwhelming.)
(A legendary person is in front of them.)
Is this the room?
(A successful fanatic)
Master? Master?
(They finally meet today's master.)
Hello.
- Master. - Long time no see.
(The king of ballad music, Shin Seung Hun)
Long time no see.
Master.
- Have you been well? - Yes, I have been well. (Deeply moved)
- We've met before. - Yes. (He welcomes each and every pupil.)
- Hello. - Dong Hyun.
- Hello. - The master is here.
Hello.
- It's nice to meet you. - He's... (This is what a successful fanatic is like.)
- He's as handsome as I imagined. - Hello.
Hello. I am Yang Se Hyeong. It's nice to meet you.
When we entered the next room,
we heard the piano.
(We just heard the piano sound.)
It wasn't something I planned.
If I don't play the piano once in every 10 minutes,
my tongue gets sore.
(He's witty and likes to set things up.)
(The 1st album, "Reflection of You in Your Smile")
(He wrote and composed his debut song.)
(The first to sell a million copies of his debut album in the nation)
(The 2nd album "Invisible Love" ranks number 1 for 14 weeks.)
(Listed in Guinness World Records for being unprecedented)
(He directs his entire concert from production to arrangement.)
(He performed over 1,000 concerts.)
The Golden Disc Award goes to... (Selling a million copies from his debut to 7th album)
Shin Seung Hun. (He sold a total of 17 million album copies.)
- Shin Seung Hun. - Shin Seung Hun.
(A winner of the Golden Disc Awards)
The winner of the Seoul Music Awards Performance Award is... (Among singer-songwriters,)
Shin Seung Hun. (Shin Seung Hun is the best.)
He made his concert become a culture of its own.
("In ballad music, he has both marketability and artistry.")
Shin Seung Hun is the nation's beloved singer... (Critic Im Chin Mo)
who constantly challenges himself. (30 years since his debut, the king of ballad, Shin Seung Hun)
My goodness.
From the start of the show, (In love)
we've been wanting to have you on the show.
- We've been saying it for a year. - Really?
- Yes. - We gave up,
- thinking it wasn't possible, - Right. (They wondered when they could invite him.)
and we went on with our lives. But during the opening,
(Since today's opening,)
we thought it might be you. And here you are. (he had high hopes.)
But when I watched the show,
you seemed to want to meet Director Bong Joon Ho.
- No. No. - Right.
You talked about Ma Dong Seok.
- You mentioned them. - We had to call someone... (He watched it all.)
- Is that right? - we don't know.
I will tell you this in advance.
I watch this show quite often. (Witty)
So I know everything you have said before. (He's a fan of All the Butlers.)
We have to be careful about what we say. (He saw it. I'm touched.)
Let's get started...
by greeting him nicely. (Let's say hello since it's embarrassing.)
- Are you doing that? - Yes.
- Yes. - Let's see what it's like...
in real life. (His heart is beating fast.)
Master Shin, we are so happy to be spending time with a legend. (A day with a legendary ballad singer)
Please enlighten us. We are...
- All the Butlers. - All the Butlers.
(Laughing)
Eun Woo nearly bumped his head on the ceiling.
Right.
Welcome. (They were waiting for each other.)
This is amazing. (A fan of All the Butlers and his pupils)
Shall we sit down?
- Do you want to sit? - Is this my seat? (Like feeling for the first time, the day starts on a good note.)
- Long time no see. - Long time no see.
By the way,
(They learned about the master's records during the opening.)
when the crew was giving us hints about you, we heard your records.
Your song ranked 1st for 14 consecutive weeks. (Being in 1st place for 14 consecutive weeks?)
- We heard that. - It's a Guinness World Record.
Ranking 1st for 14 weeks is impossible these days.
I saw him on "KBS Top 10 Songs". (Impatient informer)
The season changed, but his song kept ranking 1st.
We said, "Did it rank first again?" (Impatient informer)
We didn't doubt his song was going to rank first this week... (He becomes speechless due to so much information.)
as well as next week.
(Noh Sa Yeon, Seo Taiji)
(Hyun Chul, Joo Hyun Mi, Shin Seung Hun, Song Dae Kwan)
(He places 1st for 14 consecutive weeks.)
("Unanswered Questions")
("A Record of 1st Place for 14 weeks, The Truth is Revealed")
Which song was it?
- "Invisible Love". - "Invisible Love".
(I know that song.)
Right. That's what I did. (Pleased)
It's an amazing record. ("Inkigayo", End of the Year Special in 1992)
His song ranked 1st for 14 consecutive weeks. (Placing 1st for 14 weeks from January 28 to April 28)
Seung Hun is an amazing rookie singer.
And...
You said your tongue gets sore if you don't play the piano...
once in every ten minutes.
- Can you play the song for us? - I am playing the piano. (Can you play that masterpiece?)
No, not like that.
- Like that. - Not that.
Wait. (It's embarrassing.)
I'm only asking because you said...
you play the piano once in every ten minutes. (Just relax and warm up.)
This is the one I played a while ago.
"Invisible Love".
I got to hear it in person. (Impressed)
My gosh. (They hear this masterpiece live.)
- I'm sweating. - Wait.
Are you going crazy over this short performance? (Surprised)
- That was great. - Great.
Today's going to be so much fun.
I have a lot of hit songs, you know.
- Wait. - I can perform them anytime. (A medley of Shin Seung Hun's legendary songs)
He only plays a short bit of it, like a one-minute preview. (It's reserved.)
- He's amazing. - I even...
lowered the key. It was supposed to be... (I lowered the tone a little because I did it casually.)
There are too many things
I lowered the key, and you still went crazy. If I didn't lower it,
you would've paid me.
Right.
By the way, I heard you are the first person...
(Did the title "national singer" start with Shin Seung Hun?)
to be called "nation's singer".
A journalist called me that first.
This is what it said in his editorial.
"My wife likes Shin Seung Hun."
"My mother likes him too."
"My daughter likes him. My sister-in-law likes him."
"Doesn't this make him the nation's singer?"
And many people agreed to him.
That's when I was first referred to as the nation's singer. (I see.)
Now, younger people don't know who I am.
I am no longer the nation's singer. I'm more like a district singer.
I'm heading that way.
When people watch this, they will know that you are the first...
- They will know who the legend is. - nation's singer.
It will make them realize it.
That's precisely why I'm here.
(The national singer's wits come from his experience.)
- People like... - I didn't know.
Dong Hyun and I know him so well. (Seong Rok lived through it.)
- Right. - I always fell asleep...
while listening to your song using a cassette tape player. (A successful fanatic of Seung Hun)
(He listened to Seung Hun's tapes.)
I did that all the time.
"After a Long Time". "Reflection of You in Your Smile".
- "I Believe". - "I Believe".
"The Unwritten Legend".
- There's "Mama" too. - "Mama".
(There are so many masterpieces.)
- Right. - And I heard...
you have never been in a TV commercial.
It's...
I've never seen him in a TV commercial. (The king of ballad, Shin Seung Hun)
- Right? - I just...
can't understand it. (Did he refuse to appear on commercials?)
Was it partly to maintain...
your mysterious image?
There was that too. (Shin, the king of ballad)
("Unanswered Questions")
("Mysticism of the King of Ballad, Did He Boycott Commercials?")
At the time I was working hard, commercials were like this. (Why isn't he in any commercial?)
A woman would walk in the foreground and say... (Back in the day,)
to the man running in the back, "Catch me!" (there was a sense of chase in commercials.)
When you spray water at a woman using a hose,
she would say, "It's cold!"
Then you'd put a cold drink to her face and say, "Colder than this?"
It was too direct.
- It was direct. - Now, (Commercials were different in the past.)
it's indirect.
I was singing sad songs then.
- Right. Right. - Those commercials...
didn't match my image. I mostly sang sad songs. (Impressed)
It would've been strange if I said, "Colder than this?" (He gave up making money from commercials.)
(He chose music instead.)
So i just kept saying no, and I never shot one.
But now,
I regret it immensely.
- You... - Eun Woo.
Work hard when you have a lot of chances.
Do everything you can. (Advice from a regretful legendary singer)
What if someone watches this and asks you to be in a commercial?
Would you do it? (Would you accept commercial offers after this show?)
I received so much love.
So it's my turn to give back the love.
I'm willing to do it if it's a public advertisement.
I am willing to do that. (He's willing to do it for the public interest.)
But you can earn money by shooting a commercial...
and use it for the public.
You've grown a lot, Seung Gi.
No. No.
Seung Gi. (He realizes the amount of time that passed by.)
- I... - I haven't.
I used to really adore him, you see.
- That's one way. - Right. (He's learning a lot from Seung Gi.)
You must have a big library of songs you've written. (It's almost his 30-year anniversary.)
- What do you mean? - A song library.
I saw it on another show. (I have a few.)
There are about 800 songs in that computer.
(800 songs on his computer?)
- What? - When someone steals that...
I think I have about that much.
("PSY Says, 'Seung Hun's Computer Has 10 Million-Dollar Worth'")
("PSY Covets Seung Hun's Computer")
Psy went on a show and said it.
But do you actually have about 800 songs?
(What's the truth behind 800 unreleased songs?)
(Scratching)
I think I have about that much.
- What? - So if someone steals that,
that would worth so much.
But they will have a monetary value only if they become popular.
Can you give us a song then?
- Right. - Not just one song. (Give us some songs that you don't need.)
- Let's get one song each. - Then...
This is...
(Shall I show them or not?)
If you look at this folder...
(The master's Pandora's folder)
This is... (Open)
- What's that? - What's that?
(They get very close to the monitor.)
No way.
There's Rain.
- Rain. - Psy. (Folder names)
- Amazing. - There's Cho Yong Pil too. (Are they names of singers?)
There are these too.
- That's amazing. - Each folder has a singer's name.
Did you write the songs in there...
- with that singer in mind? - Right. (Did he compose songs for corresponding singers?)
- Well... - Is that what you did?
There are times when the song isn't for me.
I know it will suit...
another singer better. (He named folders after singers who would match better.)
There are many people here who can sing your song.
- Right. - We should get one each.
Wait.
- Jeff Bernat. - There's Jeff Bernat too? (There's one for Jeff Bernat.)
For Jeff Bernat...
(Jeff Bernat is famous for his soft sounds and sweet voice.)
("Jeff Bernat's "Queen" Tops Number 1 on Korean Music Charts")
("Jeff Bernat, a New Star of Rhythm and Blues Captivating Korea")
(The master and Jeff Bernat)
For Jeff Bernat... (They're quite different.)
Do you know this song?
(Is there something else?)
Music lovers would know.
- I know this song. - I know. (We know this song.)
- Did you write that song? - I wrote this song.
Really?
(Members who know about music are shocked and scared.)
- You're lying. - It's true.
- You're lying. - Stop lying.
I know this song. (There's no way.)
- You're lying. - You're lying.
- No way. - I wrote...
I wrote this song at a vacation house in Gapyeong. (This song was...) (This song was made in Gapyeong.)
- Wait. - Are you serious?
Why didn't we know that you wrote this song?
- It's... - Here's why. (Why didn't we know about this?)
People only think of me as a singer. (His singer image...)
(covers up Shin Seung Hun as a composer.)
And people think I can't write songs like this.
- Right. - I love you (Instead of insisting on his own style,)
My songs are usually like that. But I knew who'd sing it,
(he makes it appropriate for the musician.)
so I wrote the song to suit his image.
- I got goosebumps. - No way.
Wait.
Then did Jeff Bernat... (Did Jeff Bernat ask him to write his song for him?)
He was my big fan.
He begged me for a song. (He requests a song.)
(Big brother)
He calls me "hyungnim".
He doesn't call me brother. It's not, "Hey, brother." (That's amazing.)
- I said okay. - That's crazy.
So I wrote this song recently. (An unreleased song written for Jeff Bernat)
This... (Curious)
- It's so nice. - I love it. (What's this?)
It's so good.
Is this the song that's not been released yet?
- Wait. Wait. - Who sang this?
Wait. (That's right.)
- You didn't sign the contract yet. - Me.
- I raised my hand first. - Me.
Wait. You didn't sign the contract yet.
- Me. - Me. I raised my hand first. (A group of hyenas appears as they hear the song.)
Dong Hyun. Dong Hyun. You can't have it.
Why can't I have it?
- Master. - Master.
- Master, I will... - I didn't do it.
make you a star.
Give it to me. I will...
I will shoot a lot of commercials. (Don't you want to be called Star Shin?)
Please support me.
- I will be Yangse Bernat. - All right. Sit.
- Yangse Bernat? - Yangse Bernat?
(Jeff Bernat in the US, Yang Se Bernat in Korea)
It's completely different from the songs you usually sing.
Is that your voice?
- That's my voice. - Right?
I think it would be nice...
if you sang this song.
No. What's important is this.
It would sound much nicer if Jeff Bernat sang it.
I can't get greedy and sing it myself... (A singer who can sing it the best is...)
just because I wrote it. (Composer Shin Seung Hun's priority.)
That's what I think.
Between this and a trot song...
Did you like that?
- I love it. - I loved it. (Shall I sing it?)
Did you?
Listen to this one. You wouldn't think I made this song.
(Another unreleased song that isn't Seung Hun's style)
- This one is... - Is this one not released either?
No.
(An unreleased song by Shin Seung Hun)
- This is nice. - It's clearly not you.
(They're falling for it.)
(This time, it's dreamy.)
It's nice. (Yet the rhythm is cheerful.)
It's really nice.
(How about this?)
I think it suits Eun Wo. (The song matches Eun Woo.)
- Me? - It suits you.
It would be good if he sings it alone...
- while dancing. - I think it would be good.
I can't dance,
so I shouldn't be singing this.
- It's really nice. - Is it? (A 30-year singer objectifies himself.)
This is very raw.
(The file name is "Voice Recording".)
This one is...
(Voice Recording 27 by Shin Seung Hun)
(It sounds different.)
(Even the words that he sings thoughtlessly...)
(Even the words that he sings thoughtlessly seem sorrowful.)
(Full of longing for someone)
(How shall I put it?)
No. No. No. (His Pandora's box is unabridged.)
No. No. No.
- Gosh. - It's too risky.
I can't show you more.
- Gosh. - I do this when I get an idea...
while walking on a street...
or when I am drinking.
I go to the toilet and take out the recorder. (When he comes up with a musical motif,)
(he records it right away.)
I sing while I'm drunk.
I think I sang this one...
- when I was tipsy. - That's legendary.
Can we hear the song you wrote for Cho Yong Pil?
(Seung Hun's Fanatic notices it fast.)
(The song is in Cho Yong Pil folder.)
- Is that it? - This is it.
But this one is...
- Right? - You were clearly drunk.
You come up with lyrics too.
No, I just say whatever comes to my mind. (I'm just trying it out.)
You can't tell what this is, can you?
The day after I do this, I listen to it...
(He records whatever he comes up with.)
and try to refine it a little. (He edits it the next day.)
This is for Yong Pil. (Voice Recording 311, hoping to be sung by Cho Yong Pil)
(Did the previous recording change like this?)
- It's nice. - It's nice.
(Smiling)
(What he recorded without much thought...)
I think I get what it's like. (could turn out to be a masterpiece.)
This is my workflow.
It's nice, isn't it?
(I'm glad that I showed them my hard drive.)
One day, (One day)
I came up with a melody I was so happy with.
(He came up with an idea for a masterpiece.)
- You didn't get to record it. - I didn't get to record it. (That's unfortunate.)
It was too good to forget. (It's impossible that I'd forget the melody.)
So I thought I'd record it after 10 minutes. (I planned to record it after 10 minutes,)
But I forgot it while doing something else.
I am so upset that I didn't get to include that song in my album. (but I lost it.)
So I always...
carry a recording device. (Ever since then, he always has a recorder.)
I always... I will show you.
I have...
I will show you. (He takes out something.)
I have...
(What is that bricklike thing?)
This is... (Tapping)
(The master's voice recorded a long time ago)
I have these recordings.
Did you carry this around... (Did you record right away when you came up with an idea?)
and record the melody whenever you thought of one?
No. How can you carry this around?
How can you carry this around?
You need to connect it to a power source. (Heavy)
You need to plug it in.
You might have to carry it on your head. (It should be carried on the head.)
Think about it.
Let's say I thought of a melody. Excuse me.
(Did he record while carrying around the brick?)
He would've had to do that. (I wouldn't have done that.)
No.
You played the recordings using that. (Embarrassed)
I used this when I was at home. (At that time)
In the past, we had an answering machine, you know.
It's the meeting of a telephone and a recorder. (Answering machine, messages were recorded to be heard later.)
It's the answering telephone. (Back in the day)
At the time, our phones didn't have the recording function.
So whenever I thought of a melody, I called my home.
And I left a message.
I left a voice message to myself. (He recorded the melody on his answering machine.)
I did this.
I had all kinds of recorders. (Is this a legend?)
Even now, I carry 3, 4 recorders.
I wrote...
"You Are Just at a Place Higher Than Me" using this.
At the time, phones didn't have a recording function. (How many of his masterpieces started as...)
I used this to write "After a Long Time". (melodies on his recorder?)
- I used to have that. - You had this, right?
Isn't that a Walkman?
I used that too. I used it... (Everyone remembers the past.)
- to record things for school. - Right.
I used that to record and submit my homework.
It brings back memories.
A digital recorder came out after that. (Taking things out again)
- Right. This is it. - Right.
That's it. (Here they are.)
- Right. - That's it. (Full of models made at the end of the century)
This is the earliest model. Take a look.
It's... You can't find this anywhere else. (This is like a museum.)
If you look here...
- This one looks the newest. - It's not just old.
These scratches show that he used it for a long time. (There are many traces of recording.)
The coating got peeled off...
because he constantly took it out of his pocket.
Right. I always carried it in my pocket.
(His creations originate from this habit.)
That's why it got peeled off. (Recorder)
I had these.
This is embarrassing to say, but...
At home...
In my dream,
I heard a good melody. So I woke up... (Melodies that he heard in his dreams)
and recorded it. (He recorded them.)
- Really? - Really?
I have about two.
- Really? - Do you want to hear it?
- What is it? - It's in my phone.
- Really? - Let me see it.
- But it's not long. - Really? (Melodies recorded early in the morning)
- It's short. - I just thought...
it would make a nice song.
- I just sang a short intro. - That's how you begin.
- Where is my phone? - Where's your phone?
This is so fun.
He's got recordings? (Did Se Hyeong write a song?)
It's really childish. It's terrible.
But I couldn't stop thinking about... (He warns them out of embarrassment.)
whether or not I should mention it.
- But I did. - You're talking too much. (Let us hear it.)
I recorded it on May 8. The title is "Act of a Witch".
("Yang Se Hyeong, Act of a Witch")
- "Act of a Witch". - "Act of a Witch"?
(The title is already mysterious.)
Give it to me. (Playing "Act of a Witch")
(Laughing)
He's so cute.
(Se Hyeong is embarrassed.)
(The master is strict and serious.)
I just did it on my own.
This is how it goes. (He understands it as a melody.)
(No way)
(Goodness)
(Did he improve it right away?)
No way. (What he recorded half in his sleep is reborn in an instant.)
I knew he would do this.
You could just use that as a hook. (It's worth releasing as an album.)
I think you should record it.
It sounds like a movie soundtrack. ("Act of a Witch" became a movie soundtrack.)
(Bring any of your recordings.)
(I will bring the melody back to life.)
What is this? (Unbelievable)
(This is no big deal.)
Well...
(We wondered who was humming so poorly.)
(The king of ballad brings it back to life with magic.)
That's amazing. (Seung Hun's Fanatic gives two thumbs-up.)
On top of these two,
(He requests to arrange more songs.)
- I have... - No, Se Hyeong.
- I was confused... - You're just dirt.
(Being straightforward)
You're dirt...
and he made you into pottery. (Don't misunderstand. It's not you who did a good job.)
- It was a miracle. - He basically created...
everything out of nothing.
How did you really do that? (How is that possible in an instant?)
It just takes a lot of practice, that's all.
(Being modest)
And you just have to keep thinking about how you'd approach it.
Also, it's brave of him to show that side of him.
(Se Hyeong played his recording despite the embarrassment.)
- It's... - It must've been embarrassing,
but he stepped up, which is why I played along. (He rewards Se Hyeong's courage by playing the piano.)
This is legendary.
With a voice like yours,
just the piano and voice are more than enough. (The sound was packed with voice and sound from the keyboard.)
I haven't heard this kind of music in a long while.
- Really? - Yes.
I also have the same kind of concerns.
Since I've always been focusing on my vocals,
(My voice)
I don't want the instrumentals...
(And so many instruments)
- to replace any of my singing, - Right.
but that doesn't seem to be what's trendy these days. (He wonders a lot about the combination.)
That's why I think about this a lot.
You're thinking the same thing as what I was thinking...
(The master also thought about it at Seung Gi's age.)
15 years ago.
Should I work out, or dress nicely?
A stylist could easily cover up...
any of my body insecurities to make me look nice, (Should he decorate it with fancy instruments?)
but it'd be better if I could work out...
and achieve a body that looks good just in a shirt and jeans. (Or should he work on the core that stands out with instruments?)
That's a perfect analogy.
When I began focusing...
on the musical arrangements, (He neglected his voice as he focused on arranging.)
I realized that my melody got a lot weaker in the songs.
That's why I chose to work out...
instead of dressing nicely.
I make music that sounds good even without the instrumentals.
For example, for songs like "You Raise Me Up,"
(It's nice to hear without any fancy accompaniment.)
you don't need instrumentals to find this song good.
Yes.
(The master worked hard to create melodies.)
These songs...
make people feel something,
even without instrumentals. (To touch people with one simple melody)
- That's right. - Indeed.
That's true. (Being tenacious about the basics brings the most resonance.)
As recording has become a habit for me,
(Like the master's habit)
I'd like you to join me...
and record any melodies... (Record momentary thoughts and feelings.)
that come to you throughout the day.
I'll make those into a song for you. (Then I will make it into a song.)
Just give it a try as Se Hyeong just did right now.
I'm going to make 800 songs until tomorrow.
("Disappearing Act of a Witch")
Don't be so mindless, though. (Joking)
I don't just stay at home all day when I'm writing songs. (He goes to his vacation home to work on his music.)
That's why you go to your vacation house.
Does that help... (That's why he needed the list of materials.)
- with your music? - Does it help?
I get inspired when I go somewhere new.
(Feeling excited in a new place)
If I'm always somewhere I'm used to...
That's why I keep leaving. (He finds new melodies in that excitement.)
That's how I write dozens of songs.
You're going to show us your actual work process.
That's right. Let's head to Gapyeong. (They go to the master's hideout to get inspired.)
Gapyeong!
That sounds like so much fun.
(They arrive at today's base camp with excitement.)
I love this place, so I come here often.
- It's beautiful. - It's nice, right? (A vast river)
This is amazing. (Mountains covered in green)
- This is insane. - It's stunning here.
- This entrance is so fancy. - Amazing.
(Everything that they see...)
(is a source of inspiration.)
This is incredible.
Being here helps me to write music at my best.
No wonder you can write such amazing songs. (They will create a masterpiece.)
This is incredible.
I feel so refreshed already.
Amazing. (They may create a song better than "Act of a Witch".)
It's so nice here.
- I feel so refreshed. - Right?
It's incredible.
(Proud)
Master,
no wonder you can write such wonderful songs.
Yes, as soon as I open the doors in the morning... (A wide view that clears the mind and makes you creative)
and I see this scenery, melodies just come to me.
- Because it's so refreshing. - Indeed.
And the best part is that there's a balcony here.
(There's also a wide view from the room.)
(A panoramic view beyond the terrace)
- Is this the second floor? - Yes, it is.
You can grab a cup of coffee...
- and sit here in the morning. - That's right. (A look at the view)
This is incredible. (A sip of coffee)
No wonder melodies just come to you. (They may come up with musical motifs right away.)
This is surreal.
This is...
I just want to stand here and enjoy it in silence.
It's really amazing.
Melodies are pouring out in my head right now.
(Kim Beethoven)
(He starts singing tunes.)
("Act of a Witch Visiting Vacation Home")
He's already singing.
Just enjoy it. (How many songs did he write?)
- This is nice, isn't it? - Yes. (Such a beautiful view...)
I think we should change up and come back outside. (gives them the ambition to create music.)
- Should we? - Yes.
(Driven by such ambition,)
(Eun Woo sits in front of the piano.)
(I'm getting immersed in it.)
(As he's alone in the camera frame,)
(he feels the need to do something.)
(A monodrama to the sound of the piano)
(Thinking)
(I have nothing more to do.)
(With a monodrama,)
(Eun Woo finishes playing.)
(Embarrassed)
Great.
(Music pleasant to the ears continues.)
(Seung Gi's beautiful playing)
(Please release an album this year.)
This is a perfect day to learn how to sing.
(This time, Se Hyeong sings intuitively.)
(Under the warm sunlight,)
(he's full of thoughts and feelings.)
Watching everyone right now, (According to the master's order, Seung Hun's Fanatic is recording.)
I'm reminded of the word, joy.
(Delightful song camp with lovely music and view)
Joy.
(What makes this moment more joyful)
(The master's singing)
(Impressed)
(Saving the song in their hearts)
(Moved)
(The master's concert only for the five members)
That's so amazing.
(He's definitely the king of ballad.)
Amazing.
I feel like I just watched a movie.
Okay. (He saves it.)
You're so good.
I see why you go on retreats like this.
It's so exciting just to be here,
and it really freshens up my mind.
See how the winds don't come consistently like they do with fans,
but instead, they just come and go?
It makes me feel like I'm moving even when I'm not,
which awakens me.
(Feelings create calm waves like the flowing wind.)
When I get out of the busy city and go somewhere quiet like this,
it makes me wonder why I've been so caught up... (Forgetting the intensity of everyday life)
in the city life.
I feel so much more at ease here. (Surrounded by nature)
Indeed.
And then melodies I never thought of hits me here. (Time to concentrate only on music)
Even this song.
("Been There, Done That" by Shin Seung Hun)
These songs come to me.
And there's the flowing river right there, too.
That's right.
I actually wrote this song right here in Gapyeong.
By the flowing river.
(One view turns into a song.)
(Which moment will turn into the master's music?)
This is so nice.
You're like a vending machine with music. (With the pressing of a button, his song is played.)
- You mean a jukebox? - Yes, a jukebox.
How could you call our master a vending machine?
If you're going to call me that, you have to give me coins.
You need to throw me some coins... (I'm sorry.)
in order for me to play, then.
It's just that songs just come right out of you. (Like a vending machine)
Since we're on that topic, (Speaking of a vending machine,)
can you sing your famous songs here with us today? (can listen to one of your masterpieces?)
Yes, we have to hear it.
Let's do this. (I beg you.)
I'll sing short snippets, and you should guess what they are.
I'm confident.
This is my forte. (Full of confidence)
- Let's see how much you know. - Sure.
(Naming songs by the king of ballad)
(From ballad to dance songs,)
(he has a countless number of hit songs.)
(The master sold a million copies for 7 consecutive years.)
(Shin Seung Hun's hit songs)
(Let's check out all of his hit songs.)
I'll begin now. Try to guess. (Guessing Shin Seung Hun's great songs, 1)
Many people loved this song. (Pricking up his ears)
(They're focused.)
Seong Rok. (Did he already figure it out?)
What is it?
(They all know the song.)
What's the title? (What's the title?)
- I know! - "After a Long Time".
- What's the title? - "After a Long Time".
- "After a Long Time". - You're right. ("After a Long Time")
- "After a Long Time". - Yes. (Correct)
- Hold on. - You took too long. (He knew the answer as well.)
It's like this.
("After a Long Time" by Shin Seung Hun)
(This is the title song for his 4th album.)
(1,640,000 albums were sold.)
("I can't stop thinking that this is a nice song...")
("that I've made.")
(The song pulls at their heartstrings.)
(Has it been about 1 minute?)
That was lovely.
(I love it.)
It felt like a concert.
I do this during my concerts.
- Right. - While (He used to sing the note long at the concert.)
- I'll drag it out. - Right.
- It's nice. - I'll drag it out...
for about a minute and will be out of breath. (He can do it for 1 minute without difficulty.)
I've been out of breath before.
(His killer technique that attracted fangirls' hearts)
(When the cheer dies down,)
(he finishes the song pathetically.)
(He gets goosebumps.)
Try to guess this one as well. (Guessing Shin Seung Hun's great songs, 2)
Let's guess it. (So focused)
What's the title?
- Say the title. - "I Believe"!
- Seung Gi! "I Believe". - I was about to say it. (In such a hurry)
- Dong Hyun. - Seung Gi. "I Believe".
- Hold on. - Shouldn't you have sung... (The fan feels sorry.)
- the very beginning? - Exactly. (You need to sing the beginning.)
- He should've. - Only the experts will recognize...
the songs when played midway.
Because look.
- You'd all get it. - You're right. (This is the beginning part.)
- It's ridiculous. Right? - Right. (The first measure is the answer.)
- All right. - Yes! (He admits.)
The title was "I Believe".
("I Believe", released in 2001)
"Kyun Woo!"
Can you sing along?
It's high, right?
That was great. (A beautiful song that reminds the memory of old love)
This song reminds me of several scenes in that movie.
- You're right. - Every time I hear this song... (I remember several scenes in "My Sassy Girl".)
When you guys go to a cafe,
drink coffee instead of Coke or juice. (Gyeon Woo asks another man to take care of the girl.)
When she hits you, she likes it when you pretend... ("I Believe" was played in that famous scene.)
to be in pain when you're not and vice versa.
Kyun Woo!
I'm sorry.
I remember how she shouted his name.
Here's the thing.
Whenever I think of the movie, I think of this song.
(The song plays "My Sassy Girl" in their heads automatically.)
And whenever I think of this song, I think of the movie.
- They're linked together. - You're right. (The movie and the song made excellent harmony.)
- It's so sentimental. - They're perfect together.
- I love it. - Didn't they make a remake...
- abroad? - This song? (Was the song remade abroad?)
I heard 100 Chinese singers made remakes of this song.
(100 Chinese singers remade the song.)
- 100? - No way.
- That's amazing. - Can you play the next song? (It's a great song also recognized abroad.)
The next song is this.
(Guessing Shin Seung Hun's great songs, 3)
- This could be any part. - Okay.
(I'll definitely get the answer!)
- While smiling - Se Hyeong!
Se Hyeong! (As soon as listening to the first word,) (Yang Se Hyeong!)
What?
I'll go next. (Seong Rok makes a reservation to answer next.)
- Wait. - While smiling
- Se Hyeong, go. - Seong Rok. (What's the answer?)
"Invisible Love".
Bravo.
I thought you'd say, "'Reflection of You in Your Smile'".
- Me too. - That was so quick.
("Invisible Love", released in 1991)
(A great song that set a legendary record of taking the 1st place...)
(for 14 consecutive weeks in music shows.)
I love this part the most.
You need to listen carefully here.
(Pricking his ears)
(The lyric is invisible like an intangible cultural asset.)
- It's tricky to sing "tomorrow". - Tomorrow
- You're right. - You need to decide whether...
- to enunciate it or... - Tomorrow
I'll feel (It must be Because I am missing you)
- Tomorrow - Right. (Crying)
- Goodness. - Let me...
(It must be Because I am missing you)
Let me explain.
When a movie is way too sad, (Is it a silent syllable?)
- you won't cry. - Right. (It's less sad when a movie or a song is too sad.)
But if the female lead denies that she's crying,
but you see that she's teary-eyed, (However, when the main character holds sadness inside,)
- that's when you feel sadder. - You're right. (it intensifies the sadness to the audience.)
You want your audience to feel the emotions.
- Exactly. - There's a trick to everything. (I'll keep that in mind.)
I'm sure Eun Woo doesn't recognize my songs. (Eun Woo was born in 1997.)
- I know... - Right.
many of your songs because every time...
my dad went to the karaoke,
he'd always sing your songs. (Eun Woo's dad likes the master's songs.)
- Really? - Yes.
- So I'm used to them. - Really?
Make sure to tell him that I said thank you. (Moved)
- Bless him. - Goodness.
All right.
I think your father must've liked this song. (Guessing Shin Seung Hun's great songs, 4)
That's what I think. (I'll get the answer, Dad!)
Okay.
Guess this song.
- All right. - I need to get this one.
Here's the next song.
(This song is...)
- Seong Rok! - Seung Gi!
(The fan raises his hand.)
- Please. - No, no.
- Dong Hyun, Dong Hyun. - Seong Rok was slightly faster. (I know this song!)
- He was. - "That I Was Once"...
(Confident)
- Seung Gi, Seung Gi! - What?
- Seung Gi, Seung Gi! - Hold on. (He forgot the title as he was immersed in the song.)
- Seung Gi. - Seung Gi.
- I wanted to get it. - Hold on.
Eun Woo, do you know this song?
- Yes, I do. - Really? (Eun Woo knows the song too.)
(Really?)
Really?
It's a cheerful song. (It's a very exciting dance song that represents the master.)
You're right.
This is the most important. When the prelude comes out,
you need to say, "Kick it."
- "Kick it." - Did they say that back then?
Yes. It's like "Get on right." (The response in the 1990s is exciting.)
"Get on right."
"Kick it."
("As the First Feeling" by Shin Seung Hun)
(So fresh)
("As the First Feeling" released in 1993)
Kick it.
- Isn't it high? - All your songs are like that.
This is the original version.
(The master in his 20s looked fresh.)
I feel so cheerful.
Kick it.
Here, I need to say, "Jump, jump, jump!"
(Jump, jump)
It's "jump".
(This is just Jojo dance.)
I've been thinking about this for a while.
Whenever I listen to Master Shin's songs,
they sound very comfortable.
- They are very... - That's true.
But when I try to sing them,
the pitch is too high.
There's a high chance that it could go wrong...
when you sing at a karaoke. (You ruin the songs if you challenge them thoughtlessly at a karaoke.)
You need to adjust the key.
To be honest, I lowered it for you guys just now.
I put it lower.
Can you give us a shorter hint?
- Even shorter? - It's too easy.
You can just play really quickly.
- This song will be... - Okay. (Determined)
- Make it difficult. - Without the lyrics?
(Hoot!)
- Come on. - That!
- Come on. - Shin Seong Rok.
Shin Seong Rok.
(Can he guess correctly based on that hint?)
"Reflection of You in Your Smile".
(Can he guess the answer based on a simple noise?)
(In a replay, it still sounds...)
(Hoot!)
(Seong Rok is confident.)
- How did you know? - What?
("Reflection of You in Your Smile" is correct!)
(Seong Rok proves himself as a true fan.)
- Which part was it? - Come on.
When you listen to the song closely, (Which part of the song says "Hoot"?)
when I start off,
I don't start with the lyrics.
That's how I sing. (Making the noise)
- How did you know that? - You knew that? (Did he get it?)
You are crazy. (The master is satisfied.)
I'm going to be honest with you.
After I was scolded by my parents...
for getting a low score on my test,
I cried listening to "Reflection of You in Your Smile"...
in my bed.
With the blanket over my head. (Moved)
- Really? - Yes.
- I've heard it many times. - I can't believe he guessed it. (The crybaby is moved to tears again today.)
I can't believe you guessed it.
- It's so nice. - Which album is it?
- It's my first album. - All of his songs are good.
- They were all huge hits. - Your first album? ("Reflection of You in Your Smile" is the title song of his 1st album.)
- Is this your debut song? - Yes.
I moved from Daejeon to Seoul with this song.
I never thought this song will be so popular. (The master came to Seoul having only that song.)
Do you remember the initial response of this song?
I made it on TV after six months.
I was able to make an appearance... (The master appeared on television 6 months after releasing the album.)
because my song was too popular on the streets.
That's awesome.
- On the Street-board Chart. - Yes, on the Street-board Chart. (The album was sold popularly from the street sellers.)
They only played my songs. (Handcart? Street billboard?)
The broadcast systems called me.
- "Who is he?" - "Who is he?" (The tapes were sold on the streets in the 1990s.)
"Why is his album selling so well?"
That's how I was able to appear on TV. (The master's songs were played constantly on the streets.)
("Reflection of You in Your Smile", released in 1991)
(Recording the song)
- My heart is skipping. - Awesome.
- Goodness. - Gosh. (His voice makes the audience's hearts flutter even after 30 years.)
- It was awesome. - Gosh.
- Seriously... - It was awesome.
Whenever I hear any male singers sing,
I was only touched at how good they were.
It's my first time my heart fluttered like this.
- Really? - Yes.
- Well... - Do you want to grab my hand?
(Enveloping his hand)
Here.
(I'm honored.)
Even the lyrics are beautiful.
Even now.
Can I ask you this?
What is your source of inspiration...
- when you write your lyrics? - Exactly. (Was there a muse that inspired your music?)
Even the title sounds awesome.
- "Reflection of You in Your Smile". - Exactly. (Sentimental)
Was anyone your source of such metaphors?
- There was. - There must be.
- It doesn't make sense. - "Not as beautiful as roses."
Someone was my source of "Reflection of You in Your Smile".
She was someone I loved. (Their hearts flutter.)
I wrote "Invisible Love" when we broke up.
Really?
"Because I Love You" from my third album...
("Because I Love You" is another great song.)
True.
I wrote that part because...
I wanted to tell her that I wasn't dating anyone else.
I was telling her I didn't leave her because I don't love her anymore.
I was trying to say I am not dating anyone.
(Just like the feelings he had at that time,)
(he expressed it in the lyrics.)
After a few years,
she got married. (He wrote the song as he sent away his lover.)
That's when I wrote...
"You Are Just at a Place Higher Than Me".
It was to say that she left my heart.
That's why she was at a place higher than me.
- "I can find you." - It was to let go of her... (The lyrics said farewell from his heart.)
from your heart.
Exactly.
It's all in the past.
- Now... - It's all in the past.
Now I can talk about it. (Now he can tell the memories with a smile.)
- That's good. - Gosh.
Now, it's time to go back inside.
(Now, we need to enjoy the real song camp!)
It'll be a meaningful moment, and I'll be your leader.
I'll be the producer.
You can make the melody.
I will help you in between. (They need to make melodies and write a song themselves!)
We can complete the song like that.
- I am so excited. - Okay.
- I got a sunburn. - I have recorded everything!
You recorded everything?
I recorded all of his live songs. (Passionate Eun Woo saved all the master's singing in the recorder.)
This is fun.
- It's not cold. - It's not. (Fine weather and nice inspiration)
We have great weather today. (What kind of song would be created?)
- The weather's awesome today. - The best.
It's amazing.
I don't feel like I came here to work.
(It's been a long time...)
(since they felt relaxed in the countryside.)
This is nice.
The weather's awesome. (Nature before their eyes opens up their five senses.)
(The members face the inspiration inside themselves.)
(What would be their logo song like?)
(The master improvises melodies while playing the keyboard.)
(How can he make a song like this on the spot?)
- He just did it. - Goodness.
We can just do a live broadcast.
Is it a song that already exists?
- No, I just came up with it. - He came up with it.
You should release these kinds of songs.
- They are really good. - Really?
- Yes. - I am serious.
I was thinking, "What's the title of the song?"
(I thought it was a great song you already made.)
I was surprised when you said you came up with it.
- Really? - Yes.
But now I forgot.
You can forget it like this. (This is why he needs a recorder.)
That's why you always need a recording device.
I recorded it. (So I recorded it.)
Really? Good.
You can write lyrics on it. (Then you can keep the song, Seung Gi.)
- Try it. - I recorded it too.
Is that so?
Play rock-paper-scissors then.
(Is the copyright dispute going to be solved by rock paper scissors?)
Master Shin Seung Hun is making a logo song... (Let's make the logo song.)
for All the Butlers.
- It's awesome. - Dot, dot, dot.
Should we decide... (We need to decide on the genre.)
on the genre?
Let's do it.
The most important thing when writing a song... (What's the logo song the members want?)
is to come up with a keyword.
- For the logo song, - Yes.
I hope that everyone would feel...
comfortable listening to it.
It's comfortable but exciting. (Comfortable and exciting)
- True. - For me...
I hope it's addictive. (Addictive)
Right, addictive.
- That's why... - Addictiveness is important. (The important keywords are delivered.)
- It must have an impact. - It should. (Impact)
From the top of my head, it should be together.
For example... (Are you talking about something like this?)
Here's an example.
- I like this. - It's refreshing. (The fresh melody sounds attractive from the beginning.)
I like it.
It says "spring". (Clear and simple)
I like it. (He likes the first song.)
I like it. It sounds like spring.
It sounds like spring.
- Does it sound like spring? - It does. (This one doesn't fit my taste.)
Do you want to go for this?
I like majestic music better. (I like something grand.)
Majestic music costs a lot of money.
We need strings. We'll need an orchestra. (We don't have money to pay for an orchestra.)
That's what majestic means, right?
I think he wants...
(Thrilled)
All the Butlers
(The musical "All the Butlers" premiers at once.)
Let's be together
(Director Shin)
All the Butlers (Stay tuned...)
Let's be together
Something like this. (with All the Butlers.)
- Something like this. - You looked like a priest.
- Like a church choir. - The song was a little like it.
I feel like everyone should pray before we begin. (Father All the Butlers)
I was about to call the skies. (The dream of Seung Hun's Fanatic can come true with the master.)
The skies.
I love it.
- Do you? - Can we do rock? (Can you make rock music?)
Rock?
We can do rock. (Everything is possible for him.)
Hey! (Shouting)
Hey! (The genre doesn't matter for Composer Shin Seung Hun.)
It keeps coming out.
Can you do taryeong? (Flood of orders)
- Wait. - Master Shin,
can you write four songs for each quarter?
For each season?
(I can't help it since all the melodies are nice.)
Majestic? How about something determined? (Then can you make a heroic logo song?)
- Determined? - Why?
It expresses our determination when we meet our new masters. (Please express how the pupils feel to go and meet the master.)
My goodness.
(Still, he does everything they request.)
(Amazed)
He's weird. (Dancing to the music)
Look. (The beat makes even a bad dancer dance to it.)
He's grim.
This is it. (It makes them feel like they should go and see the master right away.)
- It's out of the blue. - All the Butlers is back.
It's so out of the blue. (The beat excites everyone.)
We're All the Butlers! (What kind of logo song would be made?)
(A fine spring day in May)
(A special concert prepared by All the Butlers)
(Mr. K, a would-be ballad singer with a mouthpiece singing method)
(Mr. Y, a would-be ballad singer who sings 100 percent with air)
Come here. (The troubleshooter is here.)
You suddenly become good at singing.
- I'll make you cry at least once. - The best in Korea. (The king of ballad's special business secret)
I said higher! (Learn like crazy!)
His one point lesson really did bring a change. (Shining vocal cords are waiting for you.)
It's me.
(A healing concert you want to keep to yourself is coming.)
Avengers. (High-quality musicians gather to be with them.)
(It's more of the resonating than the sounds.)
(The real music you want to cherish)
(All the Butler's Playlist)
