Happy to be together on "Happy Together."
- Hello! / - Hello!
Last week was our biggest holiday, Chuseok.
You get to meet your relatives for the holidays.
You can sometimes get nervous
if you meet a scary relative.
That's what it feels like today.
We don't have a lot of guests today,
but as Myungsoo just mentioned...
There's one particular guest
whom Myungsoo finds to be difficult.
Like a scary older cousin.
A really successful one.
One you're compared to a lot.
We have some great guests for this holiday special.
I was shocked.
The greatest guests.
And they're all here.
Combined, they have 60 years of experience.
These amazing singers
are legends in the music industry.
Chuseok Special! Return of the legends!
Let's bring them in!
Legends, come on!
Hello!
Whenever I'm around this guy, my brain...
♪ Goes out and away ♪
(Falsetto)
A true legend in the music industry
with countless hit songs. Lee Seungchul!
They've been discharged.
The Korean Wave star has returned as a man.
Yunho!
Hello.
A face that makes the ladies swoon.
Changmin!
I always say I have a fear of top stars.
A few top stars scare Myungsoo, too.
- It's just one person for me. / - Really?
Him.
Seungchul, you haven't seen Myungsoo in a while.
It's been a long while.
First of all...
I've been busy, and he never calls me.
You don't keep in touch?
He sounds displeased with Myungsoo.
Do you call Cho Yongpil then?
You don't, either!
It's the same thing.
Don't your wives meet up?
Yes, they meet up with each other.
And your daughters...
Woni and Minseo are friends.
It's called Girls' Generation.
All the mothers have daughters as their firstborn.
- There are 14 members. / - That's a lot.
If you count both parents, that's 28 people.
And there are around 30 kids...
That's a huge group.
That's a great name.
- What's great? / - A great name for the gathering.
Girls' Generation. I'm in SM Entertainment.
That's why.
He suddenly butts in.
This is what you do on TV.
Better than staying silent.
I thought he was more of a veteran than you.
"That's a great name."
I thought he was Kim Heungguk.
We planned to get to him in a bit...
Yunho, your style of talking has changed.
I watched "Happy Together" a lot in the military.
This is the era of appeal.
I never know when I'll fade away...
The era of self-promotion.
I'm sorry, but nobody says "the era of appeal."
I've never heard that term.
It's my first time hearing that.
The era of appeal... That's a new one.
Congratulations on finishing military service.
Changmin and Yunho.
- Thank you. / - Congratulations.
It hasn't been that long, right?
It hasn't even been a month for me.
I was discharged on August 18.
And appearing on TV less than a month later
is a lot of pressure. I'm very nervous.
Yunho was discharged in April.
That's why you tried to be appealing.
I'm gradually getting used to the real world.
Isn't four months plenty of time?
What was the best part about being discharged?
When I was in the military,
it felt like time had stopped.
That's what it's like.
This isn't a huge deal,
but on base, we couldn't have
black bean noodles or soft drinks.
But now that I'm out, I can have as much as I want.
It's great. I can't stop myself.
I kept eating that stuff, and cup noodles.
I ended up gaining weight.
I burned off the weight recently by working out.
Changmin, how about for you?
Things feel a bit uncomfortable for me
now that I've been discharged.
What's so uncomfortable?
I like to be alone.
When I work, I have a manager and staff members.
But I was alone while serving in the military.
I took the subway alone, rode the bus alone...
I went out to eat alone.
So it's uncomfortable being around Yunho now?
You want to be alone?
It's so nice to see you here with Yunho.
But Changmin...
We haven't seen you two together in so long.
I sometimes miss those solitary days.
What did you want to do when you got out?
In my case, what I really wanted to do
was just stay at home by myself.
After being in the military.
We're so happy to see the two of you together...
But Changmin keeps saying he wants to be alone.
Should I go home now?
We're a bit flustered.
Yunho, just step out for about 30 minutes.
He keeps saying he wants to be alone.
I feel bad for Seungchul.
Let's do the shoot separately.
(He's so cool about it)
Our guests are legendary singers.
Seungchul has performed live over 2,000 times.
Is that for real?
That's incredible.
I do more than 30 concerts a year.
That's 300 concerts in 10 years.
Including small concerts, it adds up to 2,000.
He's so good to his fans during his shows.
I thought he'd sing like three songs...
But you sing seven if you're in a good mood.
You're talking about the encore?
Usually you do one or two songs for an encore.
But I end up singing around five.
What's more moving than that...
Most singers wave goodbye and leave at the end.
I don't leave until all the audience members do.
I stay on stage.
That could make the audience uncomfortable.
They might want to leave.
(They're killing the vibe)
I never thought they'd twist my words like that.
- That's how you interpret it? / - It's touching.
You're thankful,
but the show has to end for you to leave.
There's the feeling that it's over.
We take time to take photos.
I started doing that to prevent accidents.
The venue is big,
and it would be too chaotic if they all left at once.
If I stay on stage, the audience stays, too.
The people in the back start to leave.
And later on, they're all touched by this.
Stay behind today and clean up the set.
I have a concert.
You suddenly have a concert?
Why would Seungchul clean up the set?
He said he likes to stay behind...
You're very rude.
(They've ruined his touching story)
Seungchul was trying to hold back.
I think things aren't quite going his way.
It was supposed to be a touching story.
You've worked with the same staff a long time.
They're basically like government employees.
Once you hire them, they stay with you.
One guy has been with me for 23 years.
The youngest has been with me for eight years.
My stylist here has been with me for 19 years.
Shouldn't you let them go now?
(Flustered)
(The legendary singer is troubled...)
We do concerts.
I sing 27 to 30 songs for two and a half hours.
Over the year, we change the concept three times.
Spring, fall, and Christmas.
If I used different people every time,
they'd have to be trained from the ground up.
My light and sound guys have been with me so long.
So we work very well together.
It's too hard to train new staff from the ground up.
So I pay my staff a lot.
So that's how you work.
So they get paid per concert?
You pay them a salary?
Not a salary.
Like he said... It's per concert...
(He spills the beans)
I didn't want to say it like that...
- Case by case. / - Right.
So you pay them per concert.
It's case by case.
Seungchul is great, but I find him a bit difficult.
TVXQ, how do you guys feel about Seungchul?
How do you guys feel?
TVXQ is a legendary group.
How is Seungchul?
If you don't know him well, he can be scary.
But we've run into each other so much.
I think he's a warm-hearted guy.
He has a lot of love to give.
He has a certain way of talking.
Like how? Show us.
If I go, "Hello, Seungchul."
He goes, "Oh, yeah, yeah."
For everything... "Oh, yeah, yeah."
"Did you eat?"
"Oh, yeah, yeah."
That seems kind to you?
It's like he doesn't care.
Seungchul keeps things short.
You called him once during the holidays.
I called him once during the holidays.
"Seungchul. Hello, this is Yu Jaeseok."
"Oh, yeah, yeah."
"Are you enjoying the holidays?"
"Oh, yeah, yeah."
"Have a great holiday, Seungchul."
"Oh, yeah, yeah."
Is that what I do?
I thought maybe I shouldn't call him again.
I felt the same way when I called him.
- My wife says that, too. / - Really?
And my daughter.
They always say I hang up too soon.
But I have nothing to say.
I ran into Seungchul at a restaurant once.
"Hello, Seungchul."
"Oh, yeah, yeah."
You make me sound so flippant.
"Oh, yeah, yeah." But then he picked up the bill.
(Quietly picked up the bill)
"Did you enjoy the food? It's on me today."
He doesn't say stuff like that.
He keeps his mouth shut and his wallet open.
You should be more like him.
I'm only saying this because
that's how Seungchul is.
It's not that he's uncaring. He's very caring.
I run into Yunho very often.
In strange places, too. Like the beauty parlor.
The beauty parlor?
We don't use that term anymore.
And that's not all.
I ran into him in the airport on my trip to Japan.
And another time when I was going to Gwangju.
I run into him on flights. Always by chance.
That means you two get out very often.
It actually brought us closer.
Of course.
Yunho's mom came to my concert in Gwangju.
My family attended.
Seungchul even invited me
to some gathering in Seoul.
I was so thankful,
but when I got to my seat,
I noticed I was sitting in the middle of the VVIPs.
I looked to my right and left.
I was with some older, important people.
You had no idea how they were important...
Like a chairman of an association...
That would be Kim Heungguk.
Isn't that right?
I tend to be a bit loud in my reactions.
Since I really like Seungchul.
Everyone else would react like...
And I'd be like, "You're awesome, Seungchul!"
Later on, the people there asked me.
What did they say?
"Who are you?"
That's pretty humiliating.
"Who exactly are you?"
Who's this guy sitting with the VVIPs?
Who's this bozo?
So they asked, and I said,
"I'm Yunho, the leader of TVXQ."
One guy is so passionate,
and one guy prefers being alone.
Still getting used to the real world.
So we're talking to Lee Seungchul and TVXQ...
