(Episode 1659)
We bring you the latest news on celebrities.
I'm Shin Hyunjoon.
Hello. I'm Jung Jiwon.
It's the third week of February.
- Many graduations were held this week. / - Right.
What does graduation remind you of?
- It reminds me of my graduation. / - Okay.
I cried a lot since I didn't want to say goodbye
- to my teachers and friends. / - Yes, it's sad.
I went for a drink for the first time
after my graduation.
Are you sure it was your first time?
I'm sure it was. I was a good student
who listened to teachers very well.
Okay. Let's just assume that's true.
Okay. Let's move on.
- Hyunjoon, you're a professor. / - Right.
How does it feel watching your students graduate?
I feel very emotional as if I'm their father.
I always pray for the best in their future.
- There's one successful student of mine. / - Right.
She works as a reporter here at KBS.
Who is she?
She's a reporter in "Entertainment Weekly".
Are you talking about Kim Seunghye?
I'm so proud of you.
- I really am. / - Yes, it's me.
Congratulations
- to all the graduates. / - Congratulations.
Let's start off with our first piece of news.
Kim Sungeun and Hyunjoon's proud student,
- Kim Seunghye prepared it. / - Was that her name?
I keep forgetting her name.
- Let's begin with it. / - It's Hyunjoon's
proud student, Seunghye.
This KBS drama is getting popular day by day.
I interviewed Namgoong Min and Nam Sangmi,
the main characters of "Good Manager".
They got on a bus for workers
who are on their way to the office.
The workers greeted us so nicely.
We were so touched by them.
Please stay tuned for it.
Her voice sounds so strange.
This is the drama that washes away all the fatigue.
I'm here with the two lead roles of "Good Manager".
- Hello. / - Hello.
- It's popular. / - The drama, "Good Manager", is
becoming more and more popular.
They comfort all officer workers by showcasing
the society we're in now.
I'm here to give people who's going to work
a hearty breakfast.
I hope you'll be energized from the meal we give you.
Have a good day.
And in such cold weather, how impressive.
This is the event KBS prepared for them.
Let me introduce Good Manager's shuttle bus.
Are you having a hard time in your commute?
We prepared this specifically for you.
To return the love they received from people
in the hope that they could commute more comfortably,
Good Manager's shuttle bus ran for the past two weeks.
The heroes of the drama, Namgoong Min and
Nam Sangmi will join us on the bus later.
- It must be a surprise. / - Of course it is.
Hello, everyone.
- Hello, everyone. / - Hello.
Let me introduce them to you first.
All of his dramas become hits.
It's Namgoong Min.
- Hello. / - She entertains viewers the entire time.
She's a cool girl, Nam Sangmi.
- She's beautiful. / - I'm grateful that I can
participate in this kind of event.
Thank you for watching our drama.
Here you are.
For those who might have skipped their breakfast,
- we gave them sandwiches. / - How do you feel?
I feel great.
Please say a few words to Namgoong Min.
Cheer up.
The bus with Min and Sangmi
is now on its way.
The CEO of KBS prepared this bus.
You didn't have a better option, sir?
Please say a few words for his help with this.
Thank you for preparing a bus for us.
We'll work harder. Thank you.
- The drama has the highest ratings now. / - It does.
Did you ever expect it to be this popular?
I prepare myself hoping that all
the dramas I do will become a hit.
We promised to do something
- if we got high ratings. / - That's right.
You play softball
and you sing Sung Sikyung's songs.
I'll dance to 2PM's songs.
It'll hit 19 percent
- in the ratings soon. / - It really could.
I look forward to you honoring your promise, Junho.
What are you saying?
- Let's have fun together as you promised. / - Sure.
I'll enjoy watching you dance, Junho.
Cheer up and keep up the good work!
- Have a good day. / - Have a good day!
Bye.
Any scenes that you remember
the most?
In episode seven, on the rooftop...
Mr. Oh!
(He's trying to persuade him not to commit suicide.)
Have you embezzled money before?
Have you?
(He makes viewers laugh and cry.)
Have you ever had fun
embezzling someone else's money?
You're not the one who should jump off the building.
Those jerks are the ones should jump off!
It's those jerks!
Are you as righteous as your character in the drama?
I think Sangmi is more righteous than me.
How do I put it?
Even when she's a woman,
- she has the boldness men have. / - She's charismatic.
Thanks for the compliment.
I can tell by how she laughs.
Unlike other women, she laughs like...
(A hearty laugh)
- She's very cool as you see. / - Right.
She's more righteous in that regard.
That's why her forthright words appeal to many.
- Did you watch the scene? / - Which one?
Her forthright words.
If this kind of thing happens again,
- I'll break up the team and... / - Shut up, you jerk!
If you say things like that again,
I'm going to punch your neck!
Say the line again. "I'm going to punch your neck."
I'm going to punch your neck.
You were at a shoot before coming here, right?
We started shooting yesterday
all the way to today. We came here right after.
We're going home after this.
(She's cute.)
Are you filming tomorrow as well?
We haven't received a confirmed schedule yet.
I hope there's no filming tomorrow.
The Good Manager's bus finally arrived at
its last destination, Yeouido.
How did you feel about meeting real office workers?
Meeting with them and interacting with them
was a fun and good experience for me.
I'll keep working hard in the drama
to please viewers till the end.
There are more fun things to come
that you will enjoy in later episodes.
Please keep watching our drama.
Please keep watching the remaining 12 episodes.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
- Please give us support. / - We need your support.
I hope to see you two again soon.
Let's move on to the next piece of news.
Before Yoon Jiyeon and Kim Taejin's news report,
Kim Saengmin will deliver his report first.
Saengmin's Veteran will be on soon.
Today, we're meeting an actor
who always plays a director.
He always captivates the hearts of middle-aged women
with his gentleness and sweetness.
It's Park Jungchul.
Our in-depth interview with him will be on soon.
Guerrilla Date will also be on soon.
The person we're meeting today is a very popular actor.
He captivates the hearts of women with his sexy
villainous image. It's Kim Joohyuk.
From a prince to a silly character in a variety show,
to even playing a villain,
you'll see him with his great of charm soon.
Please stay tuned for it.
Let's watch Celebrity Trivia first.
I think this is a question
the Entertainment Weekly family frequently asks.
It's about celebrities' promises.
From their praiseworthy promises to wicked promises,
we went and checked on how they made their promises
and how they kept them.
- The segment begins now. / - I'm excited to see this.
Whether you knew about it or not doesn't matter.
It's Celebrity Trivia.
In this week...
- This is a must before filming. / - He's handsome!
- It's celebrities' promises. / - He's so handsome.
As they work hard in their films
with their determination and passion,
they make many praiseworthy and brilliant promises.
So we've prepared
the history of various promises celebrities made.
Since when did we start making promises like this?
- Since when did we start that? / - I'm curious too.
Good question. Since when
did they start making promises?
- Do you want to know? / - I do want to know.
We have to travel back to 2010 for it.
The celebrity who made a promise first was...
What if Seungwoo hit the drums in Myeong-dong?
I'll cut rice cake.
He made a promise every week with viewers
and kept said promises.
He did that on this KBS variety show.
"Win Win" was the first show
where celebrities made promises on air.
In the same year at the 2010 FIFA World Cup,
celebrities' making promises became popular.
Hello, I'm Choi Hwajung.
I did my radio show in a bikini
due to the promise I made.
I kept my promise, everyone.
To celebrate the Korean team moving to the round of 16,
- she did her radio show in a bikini. / - She's cool.
Kim Heungkook promised to cut his mustache as well
if the Korean team move on to the round of 16.
And he really did shaved it off on air later.
I've collected various kinds of promises
by celebrities.
I sorted them out according to the types.
Have you ever felt attracted to Jeongsu?
Yes, I have.
The first type is a promise
that might affect your whole life.
Kim Sook and Yoon Jeongsu wagered on getting married,
one of the most important events in a person's life.
Many people want you two to get married.
You simply say things since it's none of your business.
You said you'd get married to each other
- if the ratings hits seven percent. / - Yes.
I'll quit the show when it reaches 6.9 percent.
At first, it seemed they didn't keep their promise.
- You felt your heart flutter due to him? / - Really?
Yes, I did.
No one knows what will happen.
Of course. Nobody knows what will happen in the future.
I hope you two will be able to keep your promise
- someday. / - Me, too.
Celebrities make promises not only to audiences,
but also to themselves. Kwak Dowon is one example.
♪ I can be noticed so easily ♪
At the preview of his movie "An Ethics Lesson",
he made a promise to drink with Girls' Generation
if the amount of tickets sold exceeds three million.
(He said he'd drink with Girls' Generation.)
I hope he can keep his promise next time.
Next is the type of promise
that can ruin one's great image.
Park Haejin promised
he'd appear on "Gag Concert"
if the ratings of his drama goes over 30 percent.
And he honored that promise soon after.
- He came on as a beggar. / - I didn't know it was him.
- He can't hide his beauty. / - He was better.
(His playing a beggar was the talk of the town.)
Heo Kyunghwan also made a promise
regarding his height on Entertainment Weekly.
I'm 170.3cm tall.
I'll take this and disclose my exact height
on the last episode.
Exactly how tall was he when they measured him?
He is 167.3cm. It's 167.3cm.
- No, I'm not. / - You're 167.3cm tall.
And Park Kyung the singer
promised that he'd dress up as a cucumber
if his first solo album ranks higher than fifth place.
To keep his promise, he changed into a cucumber costume
and went to a supermarket to sell cucumbers himself.
The common promises of celebrities are to please fans.
They may be to provide coffee or free hugs.
Which special promises did stars make to please fans?
Bokhee, I love you!
Actor Kim Soosyun said that if his movie
"The Thieves" sold more than 10 million tickets,
he'd give a fan a piggyback ride and watch the movie.
A middle school girl was chosen in the end
and he went around in the theater with her on his back.
Soohyun, could you make that promise again?
Go Soo said he'd go on a date with a fan for a day if
more than two million people went to see "Banchangkko".
He actually had a sweet date
with one of his fans in Jongno.
Now here are absurd promises from celebrities
that I couldn't put in any category.
- Swearing instead of lecturing... / - It's my mom!
Kim Soomi is best at swearing.
She said if her movie sold more than
10 million tickets, she'd swear in a bikini.
(Kim Soomi promised to wear a bikini.)
If she honors the promise, she'd look like this.
Next is a promise by Yoo Ahin, the famous actor.
There's a special promise Ahin made.
(What's the absurd promise?)
You said you'd go naked if "Punch"
sells over 10 million tickets.
It's sad that we didn't get to see that.
Shall I make the same promise again?
- Going naked? / - I want to go naked once.
Are you sure?
That is quite an impressive promise. We also look
forward to your impressive acting in your next movie.
(We'll be anticipating your next work.)
We have another ridiculous promise for you.
It's the promise of Kim Euisung of "Train to Busan".
(He promised to be punched regarding that movie.)
His promise caused worry instead.
He was too old to understand the meaning
of the abbreviation that means punched in the stomach.
(He got more nervous as the movie got more popular.)
After realizing what he promised, he took it back.
He even pleaded with people not to go watch it.
I don't know if it's a relief or not but
it didn't sell over 12 million tickets
and he didn't have to keep his promise.
Please only make reasonable promises next time.
It's a trend for stars to interact with fans now.
Promises are a way to interact with one another.
While they make and keep promises,
the process itself becomes special events,
gets reported by the media and creates buzz.
So it also achieves a marketing effect.
Promises are meant to be kept.
Here are the best three legendary promises.
She is my lady.
The first one is Park Bogum's Gwanghwamun promise.
(He promised a fan signing event at Gwanghwamun.)
Bogum said if the ratings of "Love in the Moonlight"
goes over 20 percent,
he'd have a fan signing event at Gwanghwamun
while wearing a hanbok.
Since the highest rating it achieved was 23 percent,
- Bogum went to Gwanghwamun / - He's cool.
in a beautiful hanbok to honor his promise.
Over 5,000 people from old ladies to
young little girls gathered there that day to see him.
Next is Ha Jungwoo and his promise is really famous.
Do you want to make a promise?
- If I win the award, / - Okay.
I'll walk across the country with that trophy.
And soon after...
Thank you. It's Ha Jungwoo of "The Yellow Sea".
As soon as he promised it, he had to keep it.
He really walked across the country.
He filmed the journey and made "Project 577" from it.
You're not going to make a promise, are you?
I will never...
- I shouldn't have said something like that. / - Right.
In the best three legendary promises,
the last is Lee Jungjae's promise.
In a past interview, he promised...
I'll go to your studio.
Jungjae promised to come to the studio.
A man has to keep his promise.
To keep his promise,
he came to the Entertainment Weekly studio in person
- while we were live on air. / - He's handsome.
(He is a man of his word.)
Please make another promise
- for Entertainment Weekly. / - Again?
(He hesitates.)
He said this after hesitating.
- I'd like the two MCs to come / - Us?
give out free coffee?
That sounds great.
You must keep your promises.
Hyunjoon really visited the film crew with coffee.
- He's handsome. / - What does Entertainment Weekly
- He's trustworthy. / - mean to you?
It's like my family now.
Of course we are.
We've gone through many kinds of promises
that make both stars and fans happy.
I'll be waiting for many more interesting promises
- they will make. / - Me, too.
(Entertainment Weekly)
I'm wondering how the three of you
acted together in a movie.
We don't click at interviews, either.
There is a scene that cost a lot of money.
I'm in that scene.
I'm a very funny guy.
(What is going on here?)
Sohee, you look luxurious. Right?
Yes, I do.
It was an interview full of self-praise.
It begins now.
- Let me introduce the actor and / - It's him again.
the actresses of the movie "A Single Rider". Hello.
- Hello. / - Hello.
Do you know it's a movie that many were waiting for?
Sure.
You already knew that?
Yes. I should say so.
He had his own purpose for his life.
He had financial goals.
And he wanted to make his family happier.
But he is led to an extreme situation where
all of those things disappeared suddenly.
When he went abroad to see his wife and kids,
(A husband finds out a shocking secret.)
he realizes all he believed he had have disappeared.
The story was among the best five that I've ever read.
It was that good.
I was only able to watch the trailer,
but it was so sad.
The scene where you were slapped was so realistic, too.
- On behalf of the staff... / - Do you want to see it?
(This scene is said to be very realistic.)
- Hey. / - We were surprised, too.
I wasn't really slapped.
He's an excellent actor even when he's been slapped.
I've been in a lot of action movies, you know.
If you can call getting slapped an action scene,
it's not a big deal for me.
How much did it affect your decision to join this movie
after finding out your partner would be Lee Byunghun?
It influenced me by more than half.
He was more than half of the reason why I chose it.
If it were an actor of my age...
I thought we're of similar age.
Okay, we don't have such a big age gap.
Compared to the actors who started acting recently,
Sir Byunghun has been in this industry...
I called him Sir .
- Sir Byunghun, congratulations. / - No.
Add some CG fireworks and a banner.
I'll let Hollywood know of this news.
- But you're as old as a fossil. / - I'm not a teacher.
(He said, "I'm not a teacher.")
(Sohee is flustered at the remark.)
She's surprised by his dad jokes.
I heard Byunghun told a lot of dad jokes.
Some people like them and some don't.
What kind of dad jokes did he tell?
- Like when he said about a teacher. / - A teacher?
(He's sullen.)
- Is he really angry? / - He's really upset.
He is.
I don't tell dad jokes at all.
- I always... / - He tells high quality jokes.
So Sohee and I didn't understand his humor at first.
And we didn't know when to laugh.
And then what?
- Their humor became more sophisticated. / - If you
listen to them for about three days...
- You get addicted? / - Yes.
You like Byunghun so much.
I totally fell for him.
I'm a really funny guy, you know.
Stop it, please.
He's very similar to Hyunjoon.
- Thank you. / - Sohee, you look luxurious. Right?
- Yes, I do. / - "Yes"?
(She learned to have high self-esteem from his senior.)
You look wealthy.
You look like you're from a rich family.
- Kind of. / - So you were carrying a big backpack.
What did you have to do to play that role?
I played a girl on a working holiday visa.
I play a girl living abroad on a working holiday visa.
She works hard all day on a farm,
so I had freckles drawn on me.
She always approached me first. She's funny,
and now I'm friends with someone cool.
I always wake her up at the set.
When Byunghun comes back from the set,
we'd greet him while playing tennis.
We'd call him over to join us for wine too.
- They'd have a barbecue. / - But he has to turn in.
It was like we were shooting two different movies.
Now it's time to ask what they've done alone.
I'll ask you about what you've done alone.
Have you ever had a meal by yourself in a restaurant?
- Well... / - One, two, three.
I have a favorite noodle place near my house.
I'd eat there after checking that it's empty.
Really?
I ate alone many times when I was on a job abroad.
I see.
I don't remember I ever ate by myself.
I heard that Byunghun likes to eat at home.
- Right? / - That's right.
So he waits until he gets home.
If I can, I always eat at home.
Minjung is an exceptional cook.
- You've tried her food before? / - Of course.
What did you eat?
I had braised short ribs recently.
She can cook anything from Korean to western dishes.
She comes by some times to eat with us.
I see.
- You haven't joined them yet? / - Yes.
I guess you'll have to work harder then.
- You came to my place in England. / - I did!
There was nothing to see there though.
I once went to England to meet with Byunghun.
The viewers and I saw how he lived abroad.
- Here's the bathroom. / - Gosh.
There's nothing to see. It's an ordinary bathroom.
He wasn't exaggerating at all.
Have you ever seen a movie alone? One, two, three.
You've all done this.
Did you go to see yours?
Yes, I did.
I often go to see movies alone.
I went when I knew there would be less people.
It was right before people got off from work.
I only went once, but it was a nice experience.
- I see. / - Right.
I've always liked to watch movies alone.
There are people who say
that they need someone to watch a movie with.
I never understood why you'd need someone for it.
Movies are most enjoyable when watched alone.
You'll be thinking a lot while watching the movie,
but this is one that will
make you think for a long time even afterwards.
We should end it on a sentimental note.
Let's switch to our sad eyes. Okay, I'm ready.
"A Single Rider"...
What am I supposed to say?
We don't have good chemistry.
Are you ready? Okay, here we go.
"A Single Rider"
Will hit the theaters
On February 22nd.
- I hope you enjoy it. / - I hope you enjoy it.
- Finally, they're in sync. / - Thank you.
We look forward to your movie.
- Right. / - Thank you.
(Entertainment Weekly)
Guerrilla Date!
- That startled me. / - He's back as a sexy villain.
Please welcome Kim Joohyuk!
- Look at that crowd. / - Kim Joohyuk!
- Kim Joohyuk! / - Kim Joohyuk!
Isn't it a bit too late to be promoting your movie?
I came out here to thank everyone
for loving my movie "Confidential Assignment".
("Confidential Assignment", this year's biggest hit)
Kim Joohyuk, the man behind the cruel villain,
is our celebrity guest of the day.
You've been on Guerrilla Date a few times,
so you know how aggressive fans can be.
You shouldn't let them get too close.
- You need to keep a distance. / - I see.
This is Guerrilla Date with Kim Joohyuk.
- Here we go. / Yes!
He's always fun to be around.
Guerrilla Date with Kim Joohyuk starts now.
Have you even played a villain before?
Many went to see Hyun Bin,
but many came out as fans of yours.
- I heard the rumors. / - That's not true.
Truth be told,
you showed off a body that was as fit as Hyun Bin's.
Even Hyun Bin approved of his abs.
Gosh, doesn't he look amazing?
- I only had them for a while. / - Why?
I don't have them anymore.
- You don't? / - Yes.
How much did you work out for that scene?
I worked out for a couple of months,
but it only took 15 days for them to go away.
- Is that so? / - It's honestly too easy to lose it.
The role you played
isn't one that people would easily love.
You were too cruel.
I guess people still liked me because
I never thought that I was a villain
while playing that role.
It's probably why you were so memorable.
What do people say to you on the streets?
Do they tell you that you're handsome,
or do they say that you're sexy?
- He's sexy. / - What was that?
He's sexy!
One of his fans suddenly appeared.
I fell for him in the movie "Confidential Assignment"!
Thank you. Thank you so much.
The love he had for North Korea!
- He was so sexy! / - She stole the show that day.
- I've never met a celebrity before. / - Really?
I'm glad I came to Hongdae today.
Who is Joohyuk to you?
He's the man
that broke all stereotypes!
- Joohyuk... / - Did you plant her?
- No. / - Of course not.
What stereotypes did you have about him?
I thought of him as just an old man.
I'm sorry.
- Still, he's awesome. / - Isn't he sexy?
He's an actor
that knows how to take on different personas.
That's the stereotype he broke.
I need to ask you, were you the one who planted her?
I don't think so.
Hang on. You two have matching outfits!
- Do you want to hug him? / - Of course!
- She's great. / - So what do you do?
I'm a university student looking for a job.
- Are you looking for a job? / - I wish you all luck!
My gosh. Isn't she hilarious?
- Can I take a photo? / - Sure. Take a selfie.
She even took off her glasses.
Why did you wink just now?
It's to get rid of my double eyelid.
She's hilarious to the very end.
Look at how many fans joined us.
Many of us remember you on "Two Days and One Night",
so it was surprising to see
how talented you are as an actor.
Because of my image
on variety shows and other series and movies,
- this might have seem foreign. / - That's right.
So I was actually worried.
I'm glad that people accepted me in this role,
which is why I'm happy with it.
Look behind you. This is how popular you are.
He is Kim Joohyuk.
Gosh.
Who here can sing in front of Joohyuk?
- No way. / - Me!
Someone bravely volunteered.
It's not every day you see someone like her.
Please come on over.
You startled me just now.
It looks like she's been waiting to sing.
She's amazing.
♪ My own path ♪
- ♪ You and me ♪ / - ♪ You and me ♪
They suddenly started singing a duet.
How hilarious is this?
Please give her a round of applause.
You were great.
- Is Joohyuk someone you love? / - Yes.
- How much do you love him. / - This much.
Would you like to marry him?
- Probably not. / - Well...
- He's already in a relationship. / - Right.
She's adorable.
He met with adorable fans,
and had a great time talking to them.
We then headed inside for an in-depth interview.
What was it like to meet with the fans?
It was great.
That's the only thing I can possibly say.
So I have to ask about "Confidential Assignment".
Your North Korean dialect
sounded different to that of Hyun Bin's.
That's because my character is from Hamgyong Province.
Since Hyun Bin's character is from Pyongyang,
I decided to go with a different dialect.
Can you show us how it's done?
Are you asking me to just say anything?
You put him on the spot.
(Joohyuk's chilling North Korean dialect)
We can all make a great living.
- Don't you agree? / - His words pierce your ears.
Do you still feel like you have more to learn?
- Of course. / - Really?
- I'm still way down here. / - Really?
I didn't know what I needed to be great before,
but now
I can tell which way I need to go.
I finally have a sense of direction in terms of acting.
What role does money play in your decisions?
- Out of everything else... / - It plays a small role.
- In terms of money... / - I see.
We're opposites, money to me is the most important.
You're right about that.
You should honestly pay him more.
You really should.
You can't treat him this way.
Have a seat here.
Joohyuk suddenly
put me on the spot for an interview.
It was very embarrassing.
(It must have been hard doing this job for 15 years.)
I had a raise of just 550 dollars
over the course of seven to eight years.
Life shouldn't be about money though.
Give the guy a raise!
Thank you so much for that.
You said what I was hoping Saengmin would say.
I'll now ask how you are behind the scenes.
I heard that you rarely get angry.
Yes, I don't.
- Really? / - That's nice.
In life, there's rarely a situation
where the blames fall on just one party.
Think again and you'll see that
it was nothing to be upset over.
The level of happiness for you
must be fairly high at all times.
I do my best to always be happy.
I see.
I believe that to be happy,
you must enjoy what you have.
Eating a delicious meal
- obviously makes you happy. / - Right.
But if you eat something too fancy,
the one you tasted earlier doesn't taste good anymore.
I just remembered that
you always say something philosophical.
What's the use of that? I can't live like that anyway.
Is that right? He says he rarely checks comments.
So I prepared this segment, "Please Comment".
I actually got this from the Internet.
"Did you watch the movie? Hyun Bin is great,"
"but I was more amazed by Joohyuk's acting and body."
"I thought he was an amazing actor."
"This movie made me rethink about Joohyuk."
Let's see how you would comment to that.
"I thought so too. I thought so too. I thought so too."
- He's very witty. / - I'd say that.
All right.
- He's funny. / - Let's move on.
"Joohyuk dresses well, doesn't he?"
"Sometimes he's well-dressed, sometimes he's not."
"I heard he's really into fashion."
"What do you think about his fashion style?"
How would you reply?
"I think his love is one-sided."
It means he's a little embarrassed.
Let's check some of your photos.
(Here are proofs.)
He's wearing his own clothes.
Did you style yourself? Do you remember?
- Those are all my clothes. / - Are they?
You look like Johnny Depp there.
- Watch what you say. / - I mean it.
You're wearing gym clothes here, right?
- No, I'm wearing a suit. / - Are you?
- How is this a suit? / - Is it a velvet suit?
Joohyuk, everyone thinks those are gym clothes.
When you just made your debut, the security guard
at SBS stopped you whenever you came to work.
There's still a bit of resentment left in me on that.
- That's not all. / - What happened?
- Whenever I went to an audition, / - Yes.
they told me to wait outside.
They said, "Bring in the actor."
His manager looked more like an actor.
What kind of an actor do you want to be remembered as?
I want to be the actor who always challenges himself.
- The actor who always challenges himself. / - And
I don't really
love myself much.
I never think I'm right.
I feel like I'll fall behind the moment I think that.
I think there's trends in acting too,
and I try to not fall behind the trends.
That's why I always study new styles of acting.
I actually have
a desire to lead a trend and create new styles.
That's what I want.
- That's great. / - I guess we could say this then.
You are an actor who always takes up new challenges
in order to keep up with trends.
He's been doing this for 15 years.
- He deserves to be paid more. / - Give me a raise!
- That's a long time. / - And don't fire me!
Thank you for loving "Confidential Assignment".
I will try hard
and come back with something new. Thank you.
Joohyuk will continue to challenge himself,
- and we will root for you! / - We will root for you!
He's great.
I've been a reporter for 21 years.
I am the fossil of the reporting scene?
- Who are you? / - That's hideous.
I'm the charming and bubbly girl from Laboum.
I'm Solbin.
Who's the subject of today's investigation?
(Let the beat control your body)
Today's guest is
- the talented entertainer... / - What are you doing?
I'm used to hosting "Music Bank."
We know how much you've been waiting for it,
so we made it extra special.
Please wait for a little bit.
- Stay focused! / - I'm sorry.
Who is today's subject of investigation?
It's the talented entertainer who
manages both dramas and variety shows.
He can be a sweet boss one day
and be the meanest person another day.
Capturing the hearts of women of all ages,
he is a dangerous man.
My own wife was once in love with him too.
Bring him in right away!
- He's serious. / - Saengmin's Veteran starts now.
- What's your name? / - Park Jungchul.
- Is that your real name? / - No.
What is your real name?
It's Park Chul.
Mr. Park Chul.
I love listening to your radio show.
Was it called "Serious Radio"?
Actually, I changed my name because of him.
My agency said it would be a nuisance for
the both of us if our names were the same.
And they suggested I change my name.
As soon as I did that, I got cast in "Hotelier".
What year was it when you got cast in "Hotelier"?
It was 2000.
For your information, Solbin was three years old then.
- Say it quietly. / - I'm honored to be here with you.
It means that I've managed to survive this long.
You are amazing.
- He's a fossil like me. / - In 1997,
I took the test to join KBS as an actor and debuted.
- Do people born in 1997 know him? / - Probably not.
- What do you think? / - Of course they know him.
- He's been in many works. / - But...
You've become a true entertainer.
Have you talked about Jungchul with your friends?
- Please stop. / - All right.
Please take it easy.
What was your role in "Love on a Jujube Tree"?
I still remember the name.
I was Kim Mingu.
Every drama set in a countryside has a troublemaker.
What did you usually do?
I secretly sold the harvested crops.
And I dated girls. That's what I did.
Let's watch the countryside rebel's romance.
Isn't he handsome?
It's impressive that they went to
a greenhouse for a date.
When you just made your debut,
people accused you of copying Choi Minsoo.
I didn't have any acting experience.
And I was a big fan of Mr. Choi at the time.
I mimicked him while watching his shows.
Do you still remember it? How did you mimic him?
Minsoo incorporates a lot of breathing in his acting.
"I thought of you as my girl."
I thought I could have you if I do this!
I thought that was how you sound manly and great.
Instead of saying "Did you eat?",
I said, "Did you eat? Have you eaten?"
Everyone must have thought I was ridiculous.
When I thought about it years later, it made me dizzy.
What was I thinking?
You're famous for acting as a dandy manager.
Do you have tips for acting as a dandy manager?
My approach was simple.
The type of men women like
usually makes other men jealous.
They say things like, "Who is that?" "He's no good."
- out of jealousy. / - Right.
With that in mind, I looked for
references to become that type of men.
Jungchul is famous for playing managers in many dramas.
And his actions are very fitting for his dandy roles.
When he's bored, he reads
an English book.
Even his hand gesture is different.
- Isn't it graceful? / - Money is not the problem.
Money is not the problem.
(He's Prince Charming to women and an enemy to men.)
- Women can't resist falling for him. / - I've been
playing men who are rich, gentle, and decent.
I wanted a change. Actors want a variety of roles.
That's when you got cast in "Angel's Revenge".
Wanting to break the image I had,
I gave it a try as a villain.
In the drama, he ill-treats his girlfriend
who is pregnant with his child.
Yes!
I'm going to be nervous as long as you're alive!
Get out of my life!
My character wasn't just bad.
He's just garbage.
- You want to kill me, don't you? / - I have a gun.
I'd want to shoot him too.
I had that role for seven months,
and at one point, that character became
- part of me. / - You were immersed in your role.
While I had that role, many people asked me
if I'm upset.
They thought I was upset when I wasn't.
- It must have became a habit. / - Right.
Did your friends think that too?
I didn't meet my friends.
I started to avoid people.
Just five or ten years ago, I couldn't imagine
getting offers to play so many different roles.
But recently, I started getting those offers.
And I love it.
You can sometimes play leading roles.
But you can't play leading roles all the time.
I have to prepare to play an uncle or a father.
- You're older now. / - Right.
I think I've entered that stage in my life.
(He slowly gets ready for a change.)
But I changed my mind.
I want to continue playing dandy managers too.
That's what you can do well.
And you got cast in another drama,
"First Love Again", which is a big hit these days.
His character is an ambitious man planning revenge.
I didn't know he was going to be so bold.
He's become a king of drama now, but in the past,
he was shown as a weak metrosexual on variety shows.
To be successful in variety shows, you need skills.
Have you got any?
It won't be easy.
You're just afraid that I'm going to make you do it.
- I have a lot of skills. / - Right.
- The media reported that you have 11 skills. / - Yes.
- I will mimic four kinds of fish. / - That many?
How will she mimic fish?
Halibut.
Salmon. Skate.
Rockfish.
(What was that?)
- Did you do all four? / - Yes.
I thought...
Start.
Halibut.
- He doesn't suit variety shows. / - How do you do it?
- "Halibut." Give it another try. / - Halibut.
Halibut.
- Salmon. / - Salmon.
- Skate. / - Skate.
- Rockfish. / - Rockfish.
This is tough. Is there anything else?
- Is there anything I can do? / - There is.
I can impersonate the narrator of "VJ's on the Scene".
He adds something and mixes it in.
And it turns yellow.
(We have a bad feeling about it.)
Jungchul is seen everywhere!
He's a talented entertainer!
(Jungchul will give it a try.)
Jungchul is seen everywhere!
(He struggles.)
Jungchul is seen everywhere!
I sound like an old man.
Jungchul is seen everywhere!
- Jungchul is seen everywhere! / - You're good.
- He's a talented entertainer! / - He's good.
(Mimicry is not my strong suit.)
You've been married for four years.
- Is that right? / - That's right.
In 2014,
he married his wife after dating for six years.
Always being truthful,
I'll try to become
a reliable husband.
I have an interesting piece of news.
I heard your house is under your wife's name.
Is it true or not?
It is true.
(You're a great man!)
It's true, but it doesn't mean much.
Everything is under my name in my case.
(Saengmin manages his wealth strictly.)
I protect my money.
Is it because you can't trust anyone?
You know I love you, right, Honey?
What kind of an actor do you want to be remembered as?
We can barely hear you.
When I was younger, I wanted to become popular.
But my concern now is how long I can last as an actor.
I need to start figuring it out.
I'm busy handling my work.
You always give your best to your roles,
and we will always root for you.
The investigation is over.
- Over. / - Thank you.
- Over. / - Good job.
He's the actor who's always up for a new challenge.
We look forward to seeing him thrive.
Thank you.
We can't wait to see you more on TV.
Jiyeon will deliver the next piece of news.
I went to meet Kim Raewon and Han Seokkyu.
There's a special chemistry between the two actors.
Let's watch their unusual bromance.
"The Prison" is about creating the perfect crime while
in prison, and I'm here with the two leading actors.
- I think it's going to be a great fun. / - Hello.
- It's nice to meet you. / - Hello.
- I'm curious. / - Raewon, can you briefly
tell us about the movie?
- Why are you asking me to do it? / - Pardon?
You should do it.
(Seokkyu pushes Raewon to do it.)
I think he will summarize it
- and make it sound better. / - Is that right?
- Should I do it? / - Go ahead.
The movie tries to talk about our society
through the story of prisoners.
It's got elements from all genres.
There's both action and thrills.
It's a movie that combines many genres.
- Is there a love story too? / - There isn't.
(There's no romance.)
It's set in a men's prison, so romance is absent.
There's no actress in it.
- Is that right? / - Yes.
- A lot of actresses must have been sad. / - I have to
ask this question then.
When you found out about it...
What did you think?
When I heard the name Han Seokkyu,
I didn't hesitate for a moment.
So I didn't really care about it.
So you didn't resent not having any actress in it.
It was the same thing for me.
I've been close to Raewon for a long time.
- We share a hobby together. / - They fish together.
We've been very close.
And it's always been our wish
to act in a movie together.
- After more than five years, / - Right.
we finally got to work together in this movie.
That was one of the big pluses of this work.
- Being able to work together. / - Yes.
Who is that man?
In short, he's the king.
In a prison far from society's eyes,
a perfect crime is created.
("The Prison" is an action film about a prison lord)
(planning a crime with a new inmate.)
I compiled what you have in common.
What do we have in common?
I thought you looked really cute in this picture.
(He's smiling a lot.)
Raewon looks cute too.
We look quite good when we smile.
Right?
We look very innocent.
What's similar about these two men with great smiles?
- Let's take a look. / - In one, two, three.
You are both great actors.
Let's switch seats. You should hold this.
(It's an unexpected situation.)
(They change seats.)
I can hold it.
No, it's okay.
I was very careful about the casting.
I only cast good actors.
I think it's funny to be referred to as "great actors".
I guess it means we act well.
But as actors,
we have to act well. What else can we do well?
We can have good looks.
You can be known for your good looks.
They do have good looks.
I'm the actor known for his good looks.
I see.
I want to be known for my good looks too.
I'm with one handsome and one great actor.
Raewon, you kept saying "One more time" during filming.
- You didn't... / - It isn't at just this movie.
- Do you always do that? / - I'm like that.
I didn't know about it,
- You didn't know you had this habit. / - but I do it.
- I'm sorry, but can I do it one more time? / - Okay.
Can I give another go?
One more time, please.
He's shooting a drama now, and he's famous.
- As what? / - For shouting "One more time".
(His nickname is "One More Time".)
- Is that true? / - Of course.
Some actors know.
That shows that he's got persistence.
I'm like him too.
I wonder if there's any actor who thinks he's perfect.
That happens a lot. Sometimes I do it twice or thrice.
You repeat even if the director liked it.
Do you consider yourself a perfectionist?
I try hard to be better.
I try to be a better person.
I try to become a better actor.
- But... / - Raewon is very calm.
We go fishing together.
That's your third shared trait.
You don't get to talk much when you go fishing, right?
We have a lot of chances to talk.
We get to spend a lot of time together.
- We stay together all day. / - We sleep together.
- Of course. We sleep and eat together. / - Do you?
- Yes. / - We eat, sleep, and fish.
We just repeat that.
Do you stay in one room?
Yes. We stay together in a small space.
- In 2010 and 2011, / - We went fishing a lot.
we went fishing for about 150 days
- out of 365 days. / - Right.
Right. We slept together one third of the year.
Did you?
We spent time together.
(He corrects it.)
So we had a lot
- of time to talk. / - They are amazing.
It might sound quite childish.
But who is the better fisherman?
- I'm the better fisherman. / - Is that right?
I admit that.
- Do you? / - Yes.
It's all about stamina.
Fishing is all about stamina.
He's got better stamina than me.
- I see. / - I get tired easily.
He enjoys the idea of fishing. He's at a higher level.
- How about you? / - I just want to catch more fish.
That's how a young person differs from an old person.
That's the difference.
We can't say what's better.
Of course.
But Raewon is better at catching fish.
I admit that.
The second is that you both have a soft charisma.
I realized it while talking to you two.
Your voices are very mellow.
I cannot not mention your recent work, "Doctors".
I fell in love with you too, sir.
Your voice was so mellow and gentle.
She just called you "sir".
You've reached that age too.
- No. No. I meant "Doctor". / - I'm Dr. Hong.
- Is that it? / - In the drama, he was
- I was excited for a moment. / - a doctor.
- "I was excited for a moment." / - Why?
- He's so funny. / - I want him to be old too.
People call me "sir" all the time.
- I cannot not mention / - It was amazing.
your attitude.
- Being weak isn't bad. / - There's no doctor like him.
These two men melted women's hearts with their voices.
I wonder what's more lucky.
I heard playing a doctor is as tough as
playing a prisoner.
If you have a chance again,
which role would you rather choose to play?
Choose between a doctor and a prisoner.
- I'd choose / - In one, two, three.
to play a doctor.
- Why? / - I can say more hopeful things.
It makes me think a lot.
You can talk about life through
pain or hope.
In the past, my thoughts leaned towards the former.
I wanted to talk about life through pain.
But at one point, I didn't want to do it anymore.
- You wanted to say something hopeful. / - Right.
I want to talk about life through hope
and through a character with hope.
That's why you'd choose to play a doctor.
Right.
- What is it? / - Isn't he great?
- Was it all right? / - Yes.
We are the actors you trust.
I will trust in myself too.
(Their hard work will bear fruit.)
With Raewon,
after five years of waiting,
we finally got to work together in this film.
I hope you all stay healthy.
"The Prison" will premiere in March.
Please watch it.
Thank you.
The two great actors are in "The Prison",
and we hope it will be a big hit.
- Thank you. / - We hope it will be a hit.
(Entertainment Weekly)
- Korea's 100 Favorite Rivalries. / - Quiet!
(Saengmin is on alert.)
(But he seems relaxed.)
- Who are you? / - I've been a reporter here for
15 years, and I am the ace of "Entertainment Weekly".
And you are just a liability for Entertainment Weekly!
I will be reporting this segment today.
- Please give me a raise! / - We will begin
from number 45.
Guerrilla... No.
Korea's 100 Favorite Rivalries
Nice.
Number 45 goes to Kim Taehee and Han Gain.
They became rivals with their unrealistic beauty.
People can't tell who is prettier.
Sometimes, I'm shocked when I look in the mirror.
I'm just too pretty.
However, the real reason they are rivals is because
they are not only very beautiful
but also very smart.
Taehee got better grades on the college entrance exam,
but it would have been nip and tuck
if Gain hadn't played games.
What do you mean?
I mean you are beautiful.
Their rivalry continued in commercials.
Their beauty prevented us from seeing the products,
and they boasted at their own beauty.
I will get to see you whenever I want.
Gain ended up falling in love with a fellow actor.
She married Yeon Junghoon.
- She broke a lot of fans' hearts. / - I remember this.
We wish you the best.
(Junghoon became the public enemy of her male fans.)
They don't have to compete in this area.
Taehee recently got married as well.
Along with soy sauce marinated crab,
they turned into Korea's top three thieves.
I'm grateful for your interest and blessings.
They will shine as actresses and wives.
We look forward to your future endeavors.
At number 44, it's Jun Hyunmoo and Kim Seongju.
Somehow, we ended up presenting the awards together.
We were the icons of betrayal among TV stations.
As anchors, they were the front men of KBS and MBC.
They became two prominent entertaining announcers.
While others practiced their lines on the news,
Hyunmoo chased after a position on variety shows.
He earned many fans with his overly excited attitude.
Why don't we take a look at this legendary clip?
(Second octave)
(Third octave)
(Fourth octave)
(On the fifth octave, the white of his eyes are seen.)
(Sixth octave)
(He manages to reach to the seventh octave.)
(He had the viewers' attention with his many talents.)
Seongju was the man who stopped his winning streak.
His ability to host as he was a sports commentator
made the programs more interesting and intense.
It was known that he kept on hosting
successful shows as his style was of a commentator.
He hosted "Super Star K",
"King of Mask Singer", and...
- What else? / - "100 People, 100 Songs".
- Well... / - Hosting three music TV shows is
something even Hyunmoo wouldn't do.
It's not about music. If there's a competition, I go.
It seems the rivalry
between the two announcers will go on.
At number 43, it's Seo Janghoon and Hyun Jooyup.
They were legendary.
It's not an exaggeration to say they made history.
They went to the same middle school.
They were the captains of
Korea University and Yonsei University.
They were rivals of the century.
Do you remember them?
I do remember.
That brings me back memories.
They had a cut-throat basketball match.
Looking at the photos, I can recognize the match.
- They were competitive / - We wash them by hand.
on as well as off the basketball court.
We don't have to wash them by hand at our school.
They even got competitive about laundry.
- They got competitive on the variety shows. / - His
- looks is below average / - Janghoon is...
if he were to come to Korea University.
- Rock, paper, scissors. / - Rock, paper, scissors.
Putting aside their competition on the court,
they became new additions to variety shows.
- They became amateur entertainers. / - Why is he weak?
- The rivalry continues. / - My shoulders are not good.
(What a bad excuse.)
(It's Jooyup's turn to attack.)
How will it turn out?
The competition between them is still intense.
It's the second act of the rivalry outside the court.
I look forward to seeing great performances.
(We hope you will perform well on variety shows.)
Taejin's Veteran continues.
(Taejin's Veteran, Episode one on Kim Saengmin)
What is your name?
It's Kim Saengmin.
- What is your occupation? / - I'm a reporter.
Why do you not mention you're a comedian, too?
(He pretends to not understand him.)
Weren't you a comedian first?
You were hired as a special comedian. Make me laugh.
I'll imitate a singer.
It's a rare special talent of his.
(He's looking forward to it.)
♪ I am holding onto the end of the night ♪
♪ But soon I will have to hide it away ♪
Arrest him!
At number 38, it's R.ef and Solid.
I was arrested.
Both trios ruled the music industry in the 90s.
♪ But soon I will have to hide it away ♪
They burst onto the show with the R&B genre.
(His American accent was the talk of the town.)
R.ef stood in Solid's way and challenged them.
With fast-paced beats and catchy melodies, they were
loved greatly as soon as they made their debut.
They put a stop to Solid's winning streak of two weeks.
They started forming a rivalry right away.
We are very grateful.
- We love you. / - They were very popular back then.
After so many years, they began
their career again as R.ef.
I sincerely hope we can see Solid's performances again.
At number 37, it's Apink and Girls' Day.
At number 36, it's COOL and Koyote.
We have to mention them for coed teams.
COOL was loved for their summery, cheerful songs.
Koyote was loved for their addictive
techno-style songs.
- Do you admit you are rivals? / - To be honest,
do you feel COOL can be your rivals?
Why can't they be our rivals?
I'm speechless.
I can't believe you would think we can be your rivals.
When did you start your career?
We started in 1998.
Our starting line can't be the same.
We started in 1994.
If you want to talk about that, we are still
continuing our career while you are not.
(Goodness.)
Since they were the most popular coed teams in the 90s,
they held concerts together recently.
The name of the concert was "Cooloyte".
We look forward to your signature songs, Koyote.
At number 35, it's Lee Jongsuk and Kim Woobin.
These two stole the hearts of female viewers.
They're considered
the most popular actors in their 20s.
An advertiser who was torn between these two
made his decision in the end.
Jongsuk was chosen
to be in an advertisement Woobin was in previously.
Their dramas also competed at the same time slot.
Jongsuk might have the upper hand in the ratings,
but Woobin has the upper hand in dating.
Jongsuk, if you're jealous, then you've lost.
I look forward to their endeavors.
At number 34, it's Sinawe and Boohwal.
It's not an exaggeration to say Yim Jaebeum and
Kim Jongseo created the history of rock in Korea.
Outstanding vocalists participated in Sinawe.
Sinawe was the cradle for creating rock music in Korea.
Meanwhile, Boohwal aimed at popular music
from rock to classic.
The group cultivated many great vocalists and was
considered another prominent group along with Sinawe.
To be honest, Sinawe
and Boohwal were rivals in the past.
I'm sure they were.
Even hearing their name made me angry.
- I think it was 1987. / - Was it 1987?
- You held a joint concert. / - We had a joint concert.
On and off the stage,
the competition regarding their egos was amazing.
Since they were both very prominent rock groups,
the joint concert didn't end so nicely.
We sang the last song together.
The camera was in the middle and everyone ran to it.
(Everyone ran to the camera.)
You all wanted to stand out.
We prepared a clip.
It was a war to be the only one on camera.
If Lee Seungchul was the only one on camera,
Yim Jaebeum followed after him soon after.
This is how the legendary group shot was born.
(The venue was in confusion.)
If I can make a song
and Jaebeum sings it,
I wonder what kind of song it will be.
- Mr. Yim Jaebeum, / - Here it goes.
I think we've known each other for 28 years.
Why don't we work together
if we have the chance?
Forget it if you don't want to.
- What was Jaebeum's answer? / - Come on.
Why did you say the last part?
Some people may consider us as adults of rock music.
Let's keep our positions we are in now.
Let's stay as good providers of music. We can do it.
I'd like to see a passionate competition of rock again.
At number 33, it's Kim Youjung,
Kim Sohyun, and Kim Saeron.
It was a competition in good fun for the title,
"Korea's little sister". They all grew up properly.
They're seen as leading ladies in dramas and films.
They all got rid of the designation as child actresses
and increased their presence as leading ladies.
I hope all of you have successful careers
as you have now.
Thank you for growing up into great actresses.
(We look forward to your competition as actresses.)
- Hello, sir. / - Moving on to the next one.
- Hi, sir. / - This is "Two Days and One Night".
- Didn't you star on a show as a baker? / - Yes, I did.
- Nice to meet you. / - He played the baker.
- I'm Defconn. / - Defphone?
(Is Defconn using someone else's phone?)
He said, "Defphone".
At number 32, it's Choi Boolam and Lee Soonjae.
They represent the history of Korean dramas.
They started their acting career in theaters.
They showed different charms in dramas and films.
While they were pursuing their careers, they
starred on shows that were crucial for their careers
and earned the title of "Korea's father".
Boolam played a kind-hearted village leader
on "Country Diaries". Soonjae played a brusque dad
on "What Is Love". They both performed well.
(They were well-received by viewers.)
I'll get going then.
Do you remember that?
While Soonjae took over sitcoms as a unique father,
Boolam's laughter is still remembered by viewers.
(It's Boolam's signature laughter.)
When I was filming "Country Diaries",
my mother was in the next room alone.
There was a scene where I had to laugh
when I was talking to my wife, but I couldn't
laugh loudly because my mom would feel more lonely.
That's why I covered my mouth while laughing.
(He covered his mouth and laughed.)
- That's how it happened. / - Really?
(They heard the story behind his laughter.)
- There was a reason for it. / - I see.
These two ladies were always by their side.
"I will give it to you. So eat up."
- Did you figure it out? / - I knew it then.
At number 31, it's Kim Hyeja and Kang Buja.
They took over food commercials in the 90s
with their kind-hearted mother image.
A lot of people copied this line.
- What was it? / - This is the taste.
This is the taste.
- They didn't play the role / - Did you have
- of mothers at first. / - an audition?
During my second year of university, I heard
on the radio that KBS was looking for actors
and actresses. There was a notice for it.
They're of the same age.
They have a lot in common as they were both
- hired by KBS. / - Hyeja looks more western like
- a pretty doll. / - That's right.
But Buja
isn't that good-looking.
You're mistaken if you think Hyeja is better-looking.
Like their acting skills,
their beauty was another rivalry.
With different charms, they both played the role of
warm-hearted yet strong mothers.
Thanks to them who stood by our side on TV,
the dramas always made the viewers feel warm.
If a man left with a resolution...
Mother.
With their undying passion for acting,
I hope their rivalry continues. I root for the rivalry.
- You're both great. / - We'll reveal the 30th to
to the 16th placed rivalry
of Korea's 100 Favorite Rivalries next week.
Please look forward to it.

Sungmin of Super Junior.
Changsub of BTOB.
Ken of VIXX.
These three popular idol singers
have gathered together.
They are prettier than flowers
and they tried out for a musical.
Why don't we start now?
(They are the new handsome guys of 2017.)
I invited men who are prettier than flowers. Hello.
- Hi. / - Hello.
Including myself, we can be four handsome men.
(They don't seem to agree.)
- You don't agree? / - There he goes again.
No, I think you're a perfect match.
Forget it. I'm already upset.
Why are you stuttering?
- It's not easy to lie. / - Forget it.
Introduce yourself and your part. Sungmin, you're up.
Hello, it's been a while.
I'm Sungmin of Super Junior and I play Louie.
Nice to meet you.
- You were recently discharged. / - That's right.
It's pretty recent.
It's been just a bit more than a month.
I just started talking like a civilian again.
- Really? / - I'm trying very hard.
Yes, sir.
Don't make me talk like a soldier.
He's still cute.
I'm Changsub of BTOB. I play Tsukasa. Nice to see you.
I'm Ken of VIXX and play Tsukasa. Thank you.
(They play the same character.)
The original "Boys Over Flowers" cartoon is famous.
The drama was also a hit in Korea.
What's a unique feature of musicals? Tell us about it.
Each actor's special charm stands out in musicals.
I think that's an interesting point of musicals.
In cartoons, you can't listen to the music.
There's an emotion you can only feel through music.
The audience can listen to it live, too.
Musicals are much more interesting in that way.
Ken, you played many rich-men-like-a-prince roles.
How close do you think you and Tsukasa are similar?
I would say we have a 45 percent similarity.
Really? What's the reason behind it?
- What's the reason behind it? / - I'm not so rich.
I'm not rich.
And I'm a bit stupid.
- Changsub, it's your first musical. / - Yes, it is.
Why did you pick Tsukasa as your first role?
Tsukasa is the role my agency got me.
I was so surprised at his frankness.
- He is honest. / - It's my first musical
and it's my first leading role.
I feel quite pressured.
I'm trying my best with this pressure.
If you know other people's songs,
can you sing us the songs like you would in a musical?
(Sing idol groups' songs like they're in a musical.)
I'd like to try "Sorry, Sorry" by Super Junior.
Let's hear Super Junior's hit song, "Sorry, Sorry".
♪ Sorry, sorry ♪
♪ I am going crazy ♪
That's why he's the lead vocal in VIXX.
I'd like to sing one of VIXX's songs.
(Changsub chose a VIXX song.)
Changsub will try to sing Ken's part.
(Let me control you)
His singing overpowered the atmosphere.
- Isn't it how it's done in a musical? / - It is.
- He's right. / - It's similar to "Jekyll and Hyde".
(It is?)
♪ Let me control you ♪
I thought I was watching a musical.
Me, too. I thought the same thing.
Their teamwork is perfect.
I delved deeper into their charms.
There are three categories here.
You can choose one and open the paper.
Are you wearing a wig?
- "Power". / - Ken chose "Power".
- Do you want to trade? / - I can't explain it.
This might suit you better.
- Trade if you want. / - The producer must hate it.
- Do you want to trade or not? / - It startled me.
- I apologize. / - Fine. Let's trade.
Why don't we start with you, Lee Changsub?
You can sit down and get up as you hold me.
He has to lift me.
He can't see beyond his nose.
Changsub started to work out rather forcefully.
- This isn't a punishment. / - Look at that wig.
We saw the main singer of VIXX,
Ken's cute dance moves.
We can see Sungmin
with 12 years of experience, acting cute.
(Acting cute)
(I have to act cute, but I'm 33 years old.)
(He gets ready.)
- Were you that hungry? / - I was really hungry.
It's hard to earn a living.
- He tried his best even if it was hard. / - I hope
your love will be like the fresh green sprouts.
I hope you will enjoy our musical along with your love.
(We love you)
(Entertainment)
(Weekly)
It was such a fun time.
I hope your musical will be successful.
That's all for today.
We'll be back with more news next week.
- Everyone, please stay healthy. / - Stay healthy.
