(Episode 1689)
Hello, everyone.
I'm Shin Hyunjun of Entertainment Weekly.
We have lots of news today.
Starting with news of a star joining the military,
and then news of a sports star dating.
We also have sad breakup news as well.
Yoon Jiyeon will give you the details.
I've prepared it.
They've finally ended their long run of 6 months.
In the midst of sadness, we filmed the last set
of the ending drama "Unknown Woman."
We saw the actors caring for each other.
And they did a great job acting together.
We'll check it out later.
First, we have This Week's Hot Clicks.
There were a lot of celebrity stories this week.
Let's check them out.
Let's click on This Week's Hot Clicks.
Let's go. What could there be?
The expert star walking along, Kim Haneul,
has been summoned for military service.
Salute!
Active on both TV and film,
Kim Haneul is a leading top actor these days.
On September 11, he left our side
to defend the nation.
I feel relieved to be joining the army.
Short hair is more comfortable.
I think he'll do better in the military than anyone
and I wonder what stories
he'll have when he gets out.
Kim Haneul's agency said he wanted to enter quietly.
Instead of a press conference and fan meeting
before joining, he uploaded a photo of himself with
short hair on social media and shared his feelings.
Do you know where you'll go?
I applied for the military police.
It's called the MC military police crew.
It's the division you can ride bikes in.
I think it'll be great.
After five weeks of basic training,
he will likely join the Capital Defense Command
We hope you finish your service in good health.
Salute!
You won't have time to date from exercising so much.
I think they're all dating secretly.
I date while I'm in Korea in the winter for
two months.
Korean monster athlete Ryu Hyunjin
and baseball announcer Bae Jihyun have hit a homerun!
Let's check it out!
On September 13th,
a phrase hit the top of real time search charts.
It was Ryu Hyunjin and Bae Jihyun.
As soon as articles went up about it,
they confirmed they were dating.
Bae Jihyun, who entered Ryu Hyunjin's heart, (Source: SBS)
is a sportscaster supermodel with killer looks
and knowledge of baseball.
She's active as a sportscaster with beauty.
How did Ryu Hyunjin feel about the dating news (Source: SBS)
on the way in LA?
We're dating
and I was taken aback by the news.
We both were.
We both understand each other,
and it's great whenever we see each other.
We started dating after surgery,
so it helped a lot.
After their romance of two years was revealed,
we heard Jeong Mincheol introduced
them to each other.
Fans are showering them with congratulations
at the birth of this baseball power couple.
(Say something to the fans) I'm very thankful.
We're still going strong.
Please cheer us on.
The two are planning to get married (Source: SBS)
when the season ends for Ryu Hyunjin.
We hope you two have a home run together!
Congratulations!
I feel like he's my match made in heaven.
We also heard the sad story of Chakra member
Lee Eun's divorce.
She debuted in the girl group Chakra in 2000
and was an actress after the group's breakup. (Source: MBC)
In 2009, she married golfer Kwon Yong
after a year of dating
and began to exit the entertainment industry.
In 2014, through a variety show,
she shared her luxurious lifestyle, married life,
and how she raised her three daughters.
The sad news was broken on September 12,
when an article stated she divorced after 9 years
of marriage, but the two had settled things last year.
While curiosity of the details is growing, (Source: SBS)
the exact details have not been released.
We hope Lee Eun can overcome the pain of divorce,
and continue on a happy path as soon as possible.
As a director, I can't understand
why she said she'd sue me for sexual harassment.
I hope that this situation
never happens to an actress again.
Kwak Hyunhwa is embroiled in a legal battle
due to a nude scene.
At a press conference, she revealed a recorded
phone call with the director, causing a stir.
Kwak Hyunhwa was in the movie
"House With A Good View,"
which was filmed by director Lee Suseong.
She said he released a nude scene of her without
her consent, suing him for a sexual crime under
the Special Crimes Act.
However, in the first and second trials,
the director was found not guilty.
Due to this, Kwak Hyunhwa held a press conference
on September 11 to reveal her feelings.
The public focused on her as she revealed
the voice recording she submitted as evidence.
The file I will play for you is the unabridged version.
It's about the movie with the leaked nude scene.
I called director Lee Suseong and recorded this.
The file had a conversation between the two.
Hello?
Hello.
Hi, Hyunhwa.
Director.
Yes, I'm sorry.
How can you put the nude scene in
without my consent?
Did I consent to that?
I'm sorry.
I had bad judgement. It's my fault.
So you're admitting you did it without my permission?
Yes, I do. It's my fault. I'm sorry.
How can you do that to me?
I trusted you when I filmed it,
and I said it could not be released while crying.
How can you betray me like this?
I'll meet you now and beg forgiveness.
After the file was revealed,
we tried to contact director Lee Suseong
many times, but he didn't answer.
In Lee Suseong's interview with Entertainment Weekly,
after the first trial,
we heard the content of the recorded file.
Since she called me so late at night and said that,
I felt she was saying all kinds of ridiculous things
and that she was attacking me,
so I asked to meet her to discuss things calmly.
She recorded that, then as soon as the call ended,
she went to her lawyer, as if she planned it.
The legal battle between the two ended with
the court siding with director Lee Suseong.
The court treated the written contract more valid than
the verbal contract
and that there was nothing in the contract
about excluding a nude scene.
So even though Kwak Hyunhwa's lawsuit failed,
why did she hold a press conference?
We met her to ask.
Lee Suseong was found not guilty in both trials.
But despite the fact that
I have all kinds of evidence,
the court looked at
the content of the contract,
but to be honest, in the movie world, this is
something that's not right,
but this wasn't considered.
We use a standard, normal contract.
I hope that the contract issue
doesn't come up again.
I hope acting contracts change to be more realistic.
That's why I had the press conference.
Kwak Hyunhwa held the press conference to
stress that contracts must be altered so that
actors don't suffer unjustly.
We have standard contracts for real estate, too.
The actor, production team, and director
having a standard contract
is good at preventing conflicts for all sides.
I feel that adding a clear clause for nude scenes
is needed in contracts,
so actors will have more power in the future.
Many are divided over the legal battle.
Many are watching to see how it will develop next.
I can't ever forgive this.
Do whatever you wish.
I'm going to get rid of it all!
The stars of "Unknown Woman", the hot drama
full of twists,
are all here!
Entertainment Weekly was at the final filming,
and they were more delightful than ever!
Let's check it out!
(KBS Annex set)
This is the final filming set of
the hot drama "Unknown Woman."
They're filming right now.
Come with me!
She's acting cute for no reason.
(The actors are hard at work filming the end)
They took Bomi as a hostage!
Full of tears until the end!
What happened?
(Bomi is here!)
You look pretty today.
I wore a skirt for a change.
You did wear a skirt.
Can you tell me what happened today?
Today?
- Grandma disappeared. / - She did?
I knew they were looking for her
and drew her during art class.
We met Bae Jongok, who misses her grandma.
Please say hi to the Entertainment Weekly viewers.
Hello. Long time no see.
I did an interview when the show started
and it's already been six months.
Bomi was discharged since her pneumonia healed.
Bomi, the daughter she thought was dead...
Maya was Bomi?
I can't ever forgive this.
I can never let go of this, not even after I die!
Do whatever you wish!
I'll wipe away you
and your adoptive parents.
Kim Gaya. Time of death: August 14, 2:51 p.m.
No! That's impossible!
Do you feel better now?
Do you feel satisfied now that Gaya's dead?
Hyeseong wasn't enough,
so you killed Gaya too?
You must die too.
Gaya is dead and I can't leave you alive.
Go die!
Son Yeri is my biological child?
She's my daughter?
You're my mom?
Yeri.
Tell me.
Are you my real mom?
Hong Jiwon let go of their grudges
and showed motherly love.
Wake up!
Yeri! Yeri!
You have to live! Let's start over!
(Hong Jiwon goes missing)
No!
(She gets amnesia and spends time with Gu Doyeong)
Are you cold?
I'll get a warm blanket from my car.
(They say blood is thicker than water)
Mom...
She forgives Hong Jiwon, who has amnesia,
making a beautiful, happy ending.
You were a villain of a different class.
Did any scenes make you think
that you went too far?
A lot.
My husband woke up, and
I gave him sleeping pills to make him sleep again.
There was tons of slander.
(Acting harmful to Son Yeri was commonplace)
Hey!
He's probably flipping out right now.
Get out.
Huh? (From Yeri's parents to her daughter Bomi)
I said get out!
Try getting revenge after all three are dead.
I heard the mood on set
was always lively and great.
I remember eating this ice cream
after filming ended the most.
We always had lunch together
then had ice cream for dessert.
Today was no different.
The actors ate their favorite ice cream
and ended filming in a pleasant mood.
It wasn't just a fire. It turned out to be arson.
Let's say that Son Yeri committed arson
against us to screw us over.
I thought that I'm not suited towards a villain role.
Why?
I'm very nice and innocent.
You usually have to ask this to your counterpart.
What did you notice about him?
The rediscovery of Seo Jisuk.
Kim Muyeol.
I see...
He was optimized for a villain role.
They must think we're pushovers.
The CEO and his wife are awaiting a response.
Is that all?
Seol.
What's wrong, Ms. Seo?
How do you handle tough women?
Most important is playing dumb.
Don't turn your head. You'll get in trouble.
Turn your head down and 45 degrees.
Like this.
Are you listening to me?
You have to go like this.
I can't leave out this question.
In real life,
who was the best of the three?
You call that a question? Of course Bae Jongok.
He didn't forget the 45 degrees.
It's short and long sometimes...
Oh, hurry in. You have to change clothes.
Hurry in.
Just close the door.
You can do it with the door open.
They caught me.
We also met the two stars,
Oh Jieun and Park Yoonjae, hard at work.
Yoonjae, I thought you were a model.
You kept coming backstage and changing clothes
as if you were a model.
I don't know if I'm acting in my underwear today,
or if I'm acting with a shirt on.
I have the script in one hand,
and my stylist is undressing me on the other side.
I'm like Iron Man.
Iron Man Yoonjae's other side.
I get up at 6 a.m.
when you do.
And I eat and sleep when you do.
Even though we're physically apart,
I feel like we're together.
I always think of you, Yeri.
Do you have that personality in real life?
A pure-hearted romantic?
No.
(Hahaha)
My life would be uncomfortable if I did.
So it was good acting.
I was just acting.
My fans might hope I'm like that,
but I'm not.
Byeon Woomin prepared a pop quiz.
Really?
What line came out most often in "Unknown Woman"?
1. Hong Jiwon's line
"It wasn't me. I have no idea."
2. "I can't forgive you."
That one.
And Gu Haeju's "I'll destroy you."
And...
Ma'am!
And Kim Muyeol's part that had no lines
where he just eavesdropped. These five.
What do you think is number one?
"I can't forgive you."
It's not "I won't let this go."
There was "I won't let this go."
Hong Jiwon said that.
Byeon Woomin made these.
Yes, please analyze it yourself.
This isn't official statistics, right?
No, it's not.
(The long filming finally ended!)
That's my mom and grandma!
Thank you for loving "Unknown Woman."
Thanks to your support and encouragement,
we were excited to the end.
Thank you to the viewers for showing love.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for the love for "Unknown Woman."
We're thankful too! We'll remember it
for a long time!
The cast and crew of "Unknown Woman"
worked so hard.
You worked hard.
We also contacted Kwak Hyunhwa for her thoughts
but she has not contacted us back.
We'll let you know as soon as we find out more.
An upcoming story is by our mascot Kim Taejin,
who will celebrate 20 years on Entertainment Weekly
in six years.
(Kim Taejin)
Six years are left.
I'll work hard.
It's time for Guerrilla Date. Today's star
is actor Yoon Kyesang, the multi-talented
entertainer.
He acted shy at the fans shows of love,
but he gave them sizzling fan service.
We'll check it out soon.
First, here are the four actors who rule Chungmu-ro.
Cho Jinwoong, Song Seungheon, Jeong Mansik,
Jung Jinyoung,
It was a short interview,
but they had amazing chemistry.
Let's check it out now.
It's about a youth sentenced to death
for the murder of
Queen Myeongseong who becomes a known figure
in Joseon.
This will make history.
It's the movie "Man of Will."
These are actors you can always count on.
These are the leads of "Man of Will."
Hello.
- Hello. / - Nice to be here.
You all have different identities, right?
I'm the jail warden.
They're all below me.
We just wore whatever they gave us.
But he was dressed up.
Us three are all the same.
Size 105.
I'm size 100.
(He wears a size 100)
You got hit a lot, Cho Jinwoong.
He had a lot of scenes where he got hit.
That looked like it hurt.
(Crying at thoughts of getting hit)
I'm sorry.
What happened? Why'd you hit me like that?
Let me ask. Why?
It was in the script.
I asked the director
how to do some scenes to make them real.
And he said, "What do you mean?"
Just hit him!
That was a lot of pressure on me.
Almost all the actors got hit by me.
What's better to act, hitting or getting hit?
Getting hit?
The answer?
Hitting is better.
His eyes told me he enjoyed it.
You did enjoy it.
How was it, Mansik?
Even if it was just acting getting hit...
- I didn't get hit. / - You didn't?
I'm the best fighter in the jail.
I hit you.
He was hanging on, so I hit him.
What are you talking about?
Oh yeah, I got hit and dragged.
Getting hit by who hurt the most?
What do you mean? Getting hit always hurts.
I've gotten tougher.
I heard you had a meeting after filming every day.
After filming, what would we do?
We could drink, but that was meaningless.
So we decided to meet as apprentices.
So you can think of that as a meeting.
That's something we all had to get through.
Without it, the day's filming wasn't over.
Song Seungheon, you avoided that on purpose?
- I can't go. / - Why not?
I'm the jail warden.
He's the leader.
Cho Jinwoong's drinking ability...
You'd have to sleep at 12 midnight if the next day's
shoot starts at 6 a.m.
But he had to drink until 5:50 a.m., so his body...
Look here. Watch your mouth.
I focused on the project.
I saw you mixing soju and beer.
You didn't make any for me.
"King and the Clown," "Miracle in Cell No. 7,"
and "Ode to My Father"
were all 10-million viewer movies you did.
How can one get so many massive hits?
He must've done a lot of movies.
It's just probability.
Well...
The record is made by the viewers.
The actor can't know that.
You're the hottest actors in Chungmu-ro.
But you said this.
"I won't ever play a lead role in my life."
Yes.
I was that sensitive and thought of everything,
so I think it's above my ability.
That's very humble of you.
Yes, it is.
Do you know you're handsome?
How do you feel being handsome?
You usually say you know you're handsome.
How does it feel being known as a handsome star?
(Embarrassed now that he's answering)
Let's hear it.
I'm curious.
You should thank your father.
- He's so handsome. / - Yeah.
He's much more handsome than Song Seungheon.
My dad is leagues above me.
My father was so cool.
Very cool.
My dad was handsome too.
This just got sad.
My mom said my dad is ugly.
I respect my dad. My mom said that.
Was that a family diss?
Many female singers say you're their dream guy.
Who?
TWICE's Jihyo.
Gugudan's Kim Sejeong.
Oh, Sejeong.
Park Boram, Rapper Kiseom.
But what's important is do you know them?
I know them all.
(Really?) He's a jokester.
Do you know Wanna One?
This is their sign.
(You didn't have to go that far)
I'm going crazy.
Do you know the sign, Jung Jinyoung?
Of course.
(I know that much too)
We asked the stars of "Man of Will"
what field they're masters in.
Master of promoting.
Master of gluttony.
Let's start with Jung Jinyoung. Hold it up.
Master of useless thoughts.
We often get told not to do pointless things.
We say it to kids.
That's very inconsiderate.
What exactly is a "pointless" thing?
Is that telling them to make money?
To succeed?
What's a pointless thought you had recently?
Saying this was pointless.
(He's the best) He's very witty.
What's with you?
I didn't have anything to write, so...
Master of stubbornness.
Stubbornness about what?
If I get told I'm wrong,
I can't admit it easily.
Isn't that a bad thing?
Yes, it is a bad thing.
We'll see you at "Man of Will."
Please root for it and come see.
Save "Man of Will."
Let's do a rehearsal.
Save "Man of Will" in your heart!
That was great!
Do we say "Save" over and over?
(Park Jihun / A bit faster, that's not it)
- Save, save. / - Save it!
(Eldest apologizes) I'm sorry. I'll do it right.
Save "Man of Will" in your hearts!
I can't wait to see it after that interview! Good luck!
Guerrilla Date!
Filled with a manly scent!
Man of a thousand faces Yoon Kyesang!
Today's star is here!
- What global appeal. / - No...
What happened?
A global meeting occurred today.
Where are you from?
Canada.
Where are you from?
- Japan. / - Oh, Japan.
More variety than any other Guerrilla Date.
Excited to meet the manly man Yoon Kyesang?
Yoon Kyesang's Guerrilla Date starts now!
Starts now!
How have you been?
You've been filming, right?
Yes, I'm in the movie "Criminal City."
You're a really bad guy in it.
It's my first villain role.
My character has his own story,
and Ma Dongseok's has his own.
Ma Dongseok
and my story combine at the end of the movie.
So is Ma Dongseok a bad guy?
- No. / - He's a good guy?
- Very nice. / - A detective.
A detective our country needs.
I see.
Excuse me.
(International fans greeting him) Where are you from?
This is a famous guy.
You have global appeal.
I'm not good at English.
How long have you liked Yoon Kyesang for?
Ever since g.o.d
I've liked him.
Please make a poem with your love Yoon Kyesang.
- I can do it. / - Please start.
- Y. / - Yoon Kyesang is who I saw.
- K. / - Can't believe I'm so lucky.
S...
So hard to imagine how I'll feel
as I watch "Criminal City."
Is she a promoter or something?
This is Yoon Kyesang back with "Criminal City"!
Do you know Yoon Kyesang's new movie?
"Criminal..." something. "Bad..." something.
That movie already came out.
Ma Dongseok is a detective who uses his fists,
and Yoon Kyesang is an intense gangster.
Who do you think will win?
The lovely Ma Dongseok.
Can you do anything for Yoon Kyesang?
A dance or song?
He's exhausted due to promoting these days.
- A song? / - A song is great!
Here's the mic. Let's get some applause!
A shy serenade for Yoon Kyesang.
(Careful for every verse)
What are these two men doing?
♪ These crazy days ♪
♪ When it's my day ♪
Then suddenly he approaches.
He must've felt awkward.
Yoon Kyesang doesn't know how to react.
Applause!
(Embarrassed)
Our class president!
Hello.
I'm from France.
Oh, France.
Let's do a game.
Please look forward to it.
A pushing game.
You can understand.
If you fall, you lose.
Class president!
♪ Patty cake! ♪
It looks great. They look close.
Where are you from?
- Japan. / - Oh, Japan.
Out of your favorite stars, what number is he?
Number 1!
Is there a kind of fan service you want?
A hug!
Let's do it!
A Guerrilla Date with global fans!
The Guerrilla Date with global fans continues!
Poland? Can you speak Korean?
Actually, no, but I will learn.
I love you, I love you.
Where are you from?
Canada.
We are the world!
Hug!
We are the world!
Hugs are the best!
Welcome!
What day is it in Hongdae today?
(Another person here)
Is it the Earth Village Festival?
Do you know who Yoon Kyesang is?
Yes, I know.
This is your first time seeing him in real life, right?
Yes.
Is he better on TV or in real life?
TV.
(Darn)
Oh my god.
Foreigners really are honest.
This Guerrilla Date had more variety than ever.
We changed locations to talk about deeper things.
Please stay with us.
You seemed flustered by so many people.
I'm a bit shy, so...
I avoid crowds.
There were so many people looking at me
that I didn't know what to do.
We couldn't ask much about the movie.
What genre is the movie?
It's like you put all the ingredients in then
mix it.
So various genres.
It's very fun and pleasant.
And it has tense scenes.
What few things did you think were important
when you chose to do the show?
Actors must always challenge themselves
and search for things,
so I'm always up for that role.
What about pay?
I don't care.
I do care.
Sorry. I do care.
You don't care,
but you don't want to say you don't.
I do care.
They're trying to pay me too little.
For your transformation,
you proposed your own hairstyle to the director.
I imagined it, and my hair was long, I had a beard,
and it seemed monstrous
yet fun, so I suggested it
and the director liked it.
After letting it out, it looked like this.
This photo went viral.
An Italian man.
He looks similar.
I wanted to make people wonder how I changed to
look so cool and that I worked hard.
This is wrong.
He slicked it back too much.
Why did he do it like that?
I got my hairstyle in a very expensive salon.
He did that on his own.
That's what he did...
The thousand-faced Yoon Kyesang
and his limitless charms research.
You were called "The thousand-faced Yoon Kyesang"
since back when you were in god
I don't know what the thousand faces are.
That's why we asked people online.
We researched Yoon Kyesang.
There is no aversion to looking at Yoon Kyesang
and he is fun to look at.
Heavenly thousand faces mean heaven agrees.
Your fans created that meaning.
It's used like this and like this.
He's handsome despite the face he puts on.
I uploaded an ugly picture to be funny.
Do you remember what was written?
I don't remember.
"My handsome face."
"#ExtremeDayAndNight #ExtremeEyes."
You have fun on Instagram.
I was out of my mind.
What are Naver users wondering about you?
I'm wondering.
How can you see Yoon Kyesang in real life?
Where can you go to see him?
The final item on my bucket list
is shaking hands with Yoon Kyesang.
What is this?
He bet 50.
Where can they see you?
- Exercise... / - The gym.
- At home... / - At home.
And at home.
This is his final wish.
I want to see you. Seriously.
Tell him to meet you on the stage.
Come say hi when I'm onstage.
He'll raise his hand and yell "50" and
you'll know it's him.
He wrote this on April 4, 2004.
If he's still alive,
when you greet people for the movie,
bring him on stage and shake his hand
to complete his wish.
Please come see our crime movie on October 4...
Crime action...
Who are you telling?
It's a fun, pleasant, and delightful movie.
I hope you come. Thank you.
Thank you.
Yoon Kyesang treated all the fans warmly.
We hope the movie is a hit. Cheering for you.
We can't wait to see him back as a villain.
Hope the movie is a hit.
Now it's time for Midnight Dinner Talk.
Today, we'll talk about
the nation's top MC, Yu Jaeseok,
who's had the spot for a while.
It'll come up soon.
First, we have Kim Saengmin's Veteran.
Kim Saengmin?
Veteran is next.
Today's star is a dinosaur of comedic movies.
- It's Choi Sangkook! / - I thought it was me.
It's already funny.
Choi Sangkook's serious talk starts now.
A reporter for 21 years.
A dinosaur of the journalism world.
It's already been 21 years.
You again?
Why? You missed me?
I'm MOMOLAND's Jooe.
I'll do my best to be on Veteran 100 times.
Let's go!
Who's the star today?
The Jim Carrey of the 2000s in Korea.
Known as a magician for his faces,
he's made audiences laugh out loud frequently.
They rolled on the floor laughing.
He was off screen for a while,
but rumors say he has made his return recently.
I brought him here.
Send him in!
Veteran starts now!
I can't wait. This will be fun.
An esteemed guest has come.
Name?
You get straight to the point.
Are you eating well?
I'm hungry.
It's been a while since I saw you.
Have a knuckle sandwich.
Dad joke.
Was that funny?
Are you thirsty, everyone?
If so, first drink kimchi water, then seaweed soup.
Know what to drink third?
Choi Sangkook!
(I'm Choi Sangkook!)
Choi Sangkook!
I haven't gotten such goosebumps in five years!
You're really here!
Let's start for real!
An article said you almost went into the medical
field or political science.
Because my parents wanted it.
But what happened?
I failed, then retried, then failed again.
If I wanted to study more,
I'd have to get into a school, then go the army.
I wanted to do acting at Seoul Institute of the Arts.
Isn't there a big gap between
the acting and medical fields?
I started acting because I was curious about it.
I saw my peers who joined since they liked acting.
I felt very sorry then.
I started without that feeling.
Then...
Did you hear that you were handsome?
I was a hunk.
(Flustered)
How is this possible?
You should have a good reaction
if you brought me here.
- You were a hunk? / - Yes.
I went to school with you.
You meet colleagues from Yeouido sometimes.
They said I say anything since
there are no witnesses.
I heard that a lot.
There are none. I can do whatever I want.
I don't look to the side. Only in front.
This is a tip from Ahn Jaewook.
You were a "luxury guy" in school.
You had a gold necklace and gold bracelet and
accentuated it when seducing women.
You were famous for this at school.
That was the style back then.
You looked wealthy the thicker it was.
I had a few of them.
We'd go to clubs and dance.
There were a lot of people like us.
You couldn't see it well due to being
packed so close.
So we'd be dancing,
and I alone would raise up my hands.
And shake it, so people far away could see.
"Oh, Choi Sangkook is over there."
Choi Sangkook, the son of a wealthy family.
But the reason you started acting was because of
Shin Dongyeob and Ahn Jaewook?
I went with them to take the test at MBC.
Ahn Jaewook and Semin were with me.
They passed and I failed.
So I went back to school.
One day, the front gate at school opened
and a secondhand, white car rolled in and parked.
Then Ahn Jaewook got out.
I was like, "What?" And then he took off
his sunglasses and said "Sungkook!"
I told him I heard he passed,
so I went down and we had a drink.
I decided to take the test again then.
You got desperate.
I'm sorry to say this about
talent tests, but I was uninterested in them.
That's possible.
I just wasn't into it.
But after drinking with Ahn Jaewook that day,
there was an SBS talent test two months later.
- And I passed. / - Yes, you did.
You were unique in the SBS test.
I'll ask what they did.
They asked how many girlfriends you've had.
So I asked him,
"Do you count them as you date?"
Do you tally it up?
So you weren't nervous.
They liked that I wasn't nervous.
You can't be nervous.
Our writer was careful writing your part.
Take a look. Melodrama prince Choi Sungkook.
- Oh, the prince. / - What?
Hold on!
In "August Bride," you were most popular for
two months.
How popular were you? You got lots of fan letters.
Well...
- You did an ad for King Coffee, too. / - Yes, I did.
Everyone has that time.
I'll send you a message about it. I still have it.
Why do you still have it?
People don't believe me.
He was the model for King Coffee, which only
the top stars back then could get.
How cool.
Let's talk about comedy.
This is because of Won Bin and So Jiseob.
They're good-looking.
I worried about how to spend my 30s.
I was not confident in my looks.
And my acting wasn't magnificent.
So I thought about what I did best.
And nobody had done mostly comedy.
So I wanted to make a character Korea didn't have.
- I did a movie. / - I see.
In the movie "Sex Is Zero," he gave birth to
a unique character only he could play.
He secured his place as a veteran comedic actor.
There was a time you didn't have much work.
Two movies I did in a row didn't turn out great.
I had the movie "Mr. Daehan, Mr. Mingook."
It camed out,
and they said, "Choi Sangkook, don't worry."
"Why not?"
"There's another movie.
It's a thriller but by a rookie director."
So he piqued my interest.
That was "The Chaser."
Then I was in "Oh! My God 2."
And a documentary movie.
That was "Old Partner," which succeeded.
(Sorry...)
You lost to the cow.
So I thought, "I can't even beat a cow."
So I thought about taking a break.
The younger actors ask me
how to get out of a slump.
I said not to try to overcome it.
Everyone goes through it.
Why try to get out of it?
If you just accept it,
it'll go away on its own.
If you try to escape it by exercising,
or by training,
I think it'll hit you harder.
Then you had a chance to get to the top again.
One picture changed your life.
You come back as a Hallyu star suddenly.
Chinese people really like this.
You did this movie with me.
This scene was in the movie.
He was laughing with sad eyes in this shot,
which became a popular emoticon in China.
He entered mainland China with one picture.
I went to China, and the airport was crazy.
- The airport? / - Yes.
I'll show you the clip.
He does have it.
This is the Choi Sangkook's video of
being greeted at the airport in China.
The Hallyu star Choi Sangkook who hit
his second prime!
He's back in a new movie in winter 2017.
The third movie in the "Oh! My God" series.
Can we see some of it?
How amazing!
I know lots of awesome movies are being made.
There's that kind, and this kind.
The genre of "Oh! My God" disappeared 10 years ago
and isn't seen much. The genre of "Sex Is Zero."
There have to be lots of different genres of movies.
It's that kind of movie.
A family comedy you can relax and watch.
Choi Sangkook also released
and album last year.
You released music?
How much did you earn?
Last month, I earned about $6.20.
Let's sing together.
My life is lighting up again!
Light up like a fire!
Why did you ask me to sing with you?
For a warm ending.
Choi Sangkook, thank you so much.
We hope your movie hits it big.
We're rooting for you.
Investigation complete!
We hope you reach an era as bright as your song.
- Thank you. / - Good luck on the movie!
Variety trends change easily.
While so many programs start and end,
without budging, one MC has stayed at the top.
The beloved national MC Yu Jaeseok.
How long can he stay on top?
My voice is so sweet.
We'll open Midnight Dinner Talk.
This is such great news.
You just got married?
Congratulations.
- Congratulations. / - Congratulations.
I got married late too,
so I took a break while walking down the aisle.
Are you confident you can do it?
Yes. I'm still young.
I'm still in my 30s.
Really?
- Congratulations on marriage. / - Thank you.
Have great dreams.
What variety shows are popular now?
Entertainment Weekly?
Of course.
I let go of my hope for being number one
on this show.
I love you, Entertainment Weekly.
"Mom's Diary - My Ugly Duckling" gets the
highest ratings
of the 3 big TV stations.
But the one that makes the most headlines
is the KBS program "1 Night and 2 Days."
That show has a different cast.
Reality shows are trending nowadays.
You want me to say "Rural Police," right?
Isn't that a documentary?
"Hyolee's Home Stay" is a novel program.
I think of "Youn's Kitchen."
It feels like background music,
so you don't have to focus on it.
What do you choose?
I choose "Knowing Bros" as the most fun.
In the past, Kang Hodong would pressure
and smother the other characters,
but after that controversy,
he seems to get stepped on.
The other patients... I mean cast members...
(Misunderstandings not allowed)
He's a doctor.
Kang Hodong of "Knowing Bros."
Lee Seojin of "Youn's Kitchen."
Lee Hyolee on "Hyori's Home Stay."
One person is left out. The national MC.
Yu Jaeseok isn't here.
(They're all flustered)
That's strange.
Yu Jaeseok is the national MC,
but he's not on any of these programs.
He is on programs still, but I think that
he's not as much of a topic as in the past.
- He's not in headlines as much. / - Right.
I think he has been
and still is on top.
What's the reason he was able to
keep that top position for so long?
Real talk shows he was on were popular in the past.
When there were lots of nasty comments,
Yu Jaeseok had a talk show
where he'd comfort people.
Many look at the script for their next question,
but Yu Jaeseok would make eye contact
and listen to them intently.
What about me?
You look at the script a lot.
(Cringe)
That fits you.
I thought you'd shoot lasers from your eyes.
- I guess he didn't. / - He memorized it.
What program brought Yu Jaeseok
his longevity in the industry?
I think it was "Kung Kung Dda of Fear."
It was such a simple game, but Yu Jaeseok made
it so fun.
It was great.
I think it was "Share Living and Joy."
The most important rule of an MC
is a sense of balance.
He was able to focus on many people
and told the stars to do things one by one.
I think we have to talk about
"Infinite Challenge," which I love.
I think it's maintained over 10% viewership
for a few years thanks to Yu Jaeseok only.
"Infinite Challenge" viewership is falling now.
It's fallen to single digits a few times recently.
Yu Jaeseok has tried out a few programs.
But those got cancelled.
So based on that, it's hard to say
that he's as popular as he was in the past.
What's the main cause of this crisis for him?
I don't think it's a crisis.
This crisis didn't start yesterday.
What do you mean?
Yu Jaeseok's crisis has been mentioned a lot.
This is the fate of the person at the top.
There's nowhere else to go.
So the title of people's MC, which he has now,
will end someday.
I think what could make it a crisis
is that in the past,
Yu Jaeseok's character
was compassionate.
The grasshopper.
It was weak and compassionate.
But now he's exercising a lot
and has taken care of himself to the utmost.
So people feel like he has everything.
People don't feel like rooting for him as much.
I don't think it's like that.
He has the image of a neighbor or someone
you can see often, so I think
since he's consistently
working hard, people will recognize that
and get that he's showing them that.
I think the biggest issue is that
the roles that Yu Jaeseok has to play
has decreased a lot, in this day and age.
You all know.
In some shows, it's hard to tell
who the main MC is.
They're going towards a model where they're all
on horizontal footing but have
unique personalities.
- So they're all becoming the leads together. / - Yes.
I think rather than calling it a crisis,
it's more of an era where change is needed.
With that said, I want to ask
how he can turn this crisis into an opportunity?
There's one thing that can change.
Him falling from number one.
You're terrifying.
No change means he'll stay at number one.
You know that with change,
there's the aesthetics of falling from first place.
But when he comes down from first,
we may see things we didn't see before.
I think that
even though Kang Hodong fell from the top,
he's not out of the game. He returned.
And he's showing a new side of himself.
I think that with change, Yu Jaeseok
will do the same.
so I think it's likely he'll move down.
This is a very important topic.
And it's 100% true.
The age of MC stars has ended,
so there's no point in trying to be the top MC.
Many MCs all have their own personalities,
and he has to see himself as just one of them.
But it's not easy to do that.
He's already on all these programs,
and it's very difficult for him
to stop doing them all suddenly.
Everyone feels a personal crisis,
and everyone sees it as a process.
I don't think it's a crisis
but rather a process that he's doing well in.
I think if I was Yu Jaeseok and I saw
this being aired, I'd put a call in.
(Yu Jaeseok, please call us!)
I'm not saying he should withdraw
from all programs and leave.
The person who would withdraw from all programs
is Jeong Junha, not Yu Jaeseok.
(Basically a fixed cast member now)
We don't see him often.
He was on a vacation program once,
then disappeared.
In all the programs optimized for him,
it's hard to see that there will be a change.
But if one goes into an established niche,
then there's no way to show another side
of oneself.
He should continue being an active guest.
What program do you want to see Yu Jaeseok on?
There's a scene I really want to see.
He's on "Let's Eat Dinner Together" right now.
That show has all the legends.
Lee Gyeonggyu, Kang Hodong.
I think Yu Jaeseok would be a nice addition.
That'd be interesting.
On that show, they meet regular people.
They must all be treated differently.
With Yu Jaeseok there, I think it'll be more fun.
There's a program with Yu Jaeseok at home.
I want to see an "I Live Alone" version with him.
I think "Superman Returns" would be good too.
When there are lots of male MCs, unlike
on fixed programs, there's a bit of a hierarchy.
I think a female MC that he'd mesh with,
like Song Euni or Park Narae,
would be interesting to see.
Thank you for joining us today.
You did great today. Thank you.
(To relieve pressure, I'll root for you always)
What do you all think?
Midnight Dinner Talk will be back next week.
(Rooting for God Jaeseok)
That's all the news we have for today.
We'll see you next week.
Everybody, be happy!
