(Episode 1692)
Hello, I'm Shin Hyunjun of Entertainment Weekly.
We have lots of interesting stories this week.
Actor Kim Soohyun has joined the army.
Rain and Kim Taehee are having a daughter.
We'll bring you the detail shortly.
First, let's hear from Kim Seunghye and the flower
of Entertainment Weekly, Kim Taejin.
I met with the experienced group members
of "The Unit,"
which will premiere soon.
They were as witty as they are skilled.
We'll check it out soon.
This Week's Hot Clicks.
Actor Jo Deokjae is embroiled in a sexual
assault case with an actress known as Ms. A,
and we investigated both sides.
The Daejong Awards was held on Wednesday.
I went there to see what it was like.
Let's check it out.
On Wednesday, a festival for stars,
the 54th Daejong Awards, was held.
All of Korea's top stars arrived looking dazzling.
Let's meet some.
The first one to captivate those on the scene.
(Is Taejin here?)
The two show hosts of the Daejong Awards.
You look fantastic. (Stephanie Lee & Shin Hyunjun)
Kim Taejin. Kim Taejin.
They greeted me warmly.
Please praise something about your partner.
She started out as a model.
She's Korea's top fashionista.
She's beautiful and active as an actress.
I was so nervous, but I trust Hyunjun.
I love you, Entertainment Weekly!
We love you, Daejong Awards!
We wanted to ask something to
the handsome actors chicly dressed in all black.
Why are you so handsome?
- I put it on this morning. / - So did I.
Why are you so handsome?
You're more handsome, Taejin.
Thank you.
(Liar) I really like him.
Korea's hottest man Zo Insung was there too!
He's so cool.
Congrats on being nominated for Best Lead Actor.
- Please do a hand heart. / - A hand heart?
(Looks of a king, heart of a king) Thank you.
Top actors shined here at the awards ceremony.
Please do the "Saved in my heart" pose.
- What? / - The "Saved in my heart" pose.
Oh, this?
Thank you.
Kwak Dowon, who we want to save in our heart.
Please come on Guerrilla Date.
Please! Please!
- I'm scared of that. / - Thank you.
Song Kangho was there too.
I hope this awards ceremony grows in popularity.
Since after all, it is a festival.
I hope this feels like a festival.
Another highlight of the red carpet
were the outfits of the actresses,
which were mostly black and white.
What was important in choosing your dress?
I'm presenting an award.
So to stand out more.
Just being nominated is an honor.
Why is this doll talking?
For the Best Lead Actor of the 54th Daejong Awards,
as flashy as the red carpet,
actor Seol Gyeonggu received the honor.
I haven't been here in 15 years.
I've never posed
while on this stage.
I'll do a pose for just three seconds.
Thank you.
He's relaxed.
This is Seol Gyeonggu's best ever
3 still shots while posing.
Best Lead Actress went to Choi Huiseo for
her role in "Anarchist from Colony."
I'll continue to become an actress who acts
truthfully and goes through the proper process.
How beautiful.
Congratulations to all the winners.
We hope even more actors will come
to the festival next year.
- See you next year. / - Congratulations.
I hope they can say exactly what parts
of what I said were false and which were true.
They said the defendant was too into the role.
He didn't deny the incident.
Actor Jo Deokjae is embroiled in a sexual
assault case with an actress known as Ms. A,
It all started when actor Jo Deokjae
was arrested for sexually assaulting Ms. A
during filming in 2015.
Jo Deokjae was found not guilty
in the first round of trials.
However, an appeals court overturned the ruling.
Then Jo Deokjae shared his thoughts and
rebutted Ms. A's claims.
On Tuesday, Ms. A held a press conference where
a proxy read a letter she wrote on her thoughts.
She said that it was not acting but sexual assault
and that she will continue to fight.
While their accounts don't match,
only those there that day know what happened.
We heard the details from both sides.
The first issue is whether it was sexual assault.
I've been in a lawsuit about
touching her lower body for two and a half years.
But I never admitted to the claims.
If I had admitted to the police that I did it
like Ms. A had said, would I have
pled not guilty in the trial?
He admitted he touched her right after
the incident.
He also admitted it when the police investigated.
While filming, the actress's upper body was revealed
and she went into a room to cry.
The director entered and asked why she was crying.
Then she said he put his hand down her pants
and touched her chest.
The director was rattled, so he called the victim
and asked if that really happened, and the victim
said he was immersed in acting out his role.
That means he didn't deny it.
The second issue is the apology.
After the incident, the defendant texted
the victim.
It read, "You must be hurt and sad.
I know. I got greedy and crossed the line.
I'm sorry. I should've said sorry and comforted you,
but I actually hurt you even more.
I'm very sorry and worried about you."
If the actress quits,
the movie is in trouble.
If I hadn't sent the text
and the issue got bigger,
I thought I'd be blamed for that trouble.
so that's why I sent the apology text.
They used that text as evidence
that I admitted to the crime.
Here's the third issue.
You'll know if you see the making film,
the director's direction is very concrete,
so if you ask, you'll immediately know
what kind of acting he demands.
The director called for clothes to be ripped off.
Then she'll cover her body.
Then do whatever you want.
I acted in accordance
with what he said, as an actor.
The director ordered this:
"Rip her pants off and do whatever you like as if
you're crazy. She has bruises.
This isn't an erotic film.
Make it so she hates you, and
focus on her face." That's what he commanded.
Besides the "this isn't an erotic film"
and "focus on the face,"
another part is highlighted.
I don't think this movie was rated ages 15 and up.
Both sides are making opposing claims
and the Supreme Court will rule on it soon.
We hope the truth comes to light
and justice is served.
The largest audition program ever
has both former and present idols.
This idol rebooting project starts now!
It's already making waves with its lineup.
Mentor Rain.
Hwang Chiyeul.
HyunA.
And Taemin.
San E.
And last but not least, Jo Hyunah!
Let's meet with the mentors of "The Unit."
We're with five mentors of "The Unit."
(San E, HyunA, Taemin, Jo Hyunah, Chiyeul) Hello.
Entertainment Weekly!
Thank you.
What's different about "The Unit"?
They've all debuted
and have been through an intense trainee period,
so there's more desperation and
they see it
as their last chance.
So this is a sort of rebooting
and opportunity for them to restart.
- It's a program of hope. / - Reboot.
Were there any memorable lines from the judges?
Rain couldn't stand to watch,
so he went up on stage and danced.
- Stop there! / - Just there?
Hwang Chiyeul also couldn't stand to watch
and went up on stage and...
(Warning! Spoilers banned!) Stop there!
For those who can improve,
we worked very hard.
You can watch it on TV.
If you were a contestant, who would you
want to hear advice from?
I think we should hear from everyone.
- You avoided that well. / - No, no.
That's the answer I thought of.
She said it first.
(What a relief)
I think the answers get the same towards the end.
Yes, a bit.
So I'm going to change up the question.
Taemin, if you were a contestant,
who would you not want mentoring from?
(Flustered)
Wouldn't he choose himself?
I want to hear it from myself.
I'd choose San E.
Because he's very persistent and exact
and his suggestions are scary.
You can see who's targeting who when you watch.
I'm in trouble now.
Is there something of your own
that you can let the contestants know?
I've been in the industry far longer than them.
I want to use my experience
to advise them.
I think watching this show
will be good for all aspiring idols.
If the mentors could reboot themselves,
what aspect would you change?
Self-rebooting estimate.
If I could reboot,
I'd be reborn as Rain.
Why do you think that?
He's a great entertainer, actor,
has a beautiful family,
and just had a daughter.
He's an awesome guy.
A daughter.
Congratulations.
Rain, congratulations.
Entertainment Weekly went to
the secret filming location.
There were familiar faces there.
We saw the now-father Rain there.
I'm with Rain! Hello!
Hello, Entertainment Weekly viewers.
Long time no see.
I heard you're a "The Unit" talk host.
Rather than the grand term "talk host,"
I'm just one of six industry veterans
who are here as helpers.
But that is
probably the equivalent of being an talk host.
So he's an talk host anyway.
Do you have your own method for judging?
We six veterans
don't look at talent first.
We've decided to look at potential as well.
So those who are tenacious and persistent and
have the willpower to continue will rank higher.
That's the first thing we look for.
Second is skill.
So skill comes second.
Because we experts all have potential.
We can teach them.
"The Unit," with 126 contestants
who have already debuted,
will choose nine people
to join a new idol group.
A lot of contestants have worked very hard.
They're desperate for helping hands.
What's great about "The Unit"
is that it's fresh and new
and has lots of various challenges and tryouts.
If you see "The Unit" on KBS while
flipping channels, stop and watch it.
I'll do my best to make sure that rebooting
goes well and these great artists can grow.
Please show lots of love to "The Unit."
It airs soon, so make sure to tune in.
It's a program great for the whole family.
Please show it love. Thank you.
Thank you.
I'll make sure to watch it! You can do it!
KBS is hard at work preparing "The Unit."
I can't wait to watch it.
Congratulations again to Rain, the eldest mentor
of "The Unit," on becoming a father.
Congrats to Kim Taehee too.
The next story is by Kim Taejin.
It's time for Guerrilla Date.
The star this week beat out pretty boy actors
and is known a top Chungmuro star. Ma Dongseok.
We'll see his endless charms soon.
But first, we'll meet with
Korea's two most handsome and most awesome men.
It's Jung Woosung and Lee Jungjae.
I was number one among them.
- Number one most ugly. / - Congrats.
Let's check it out.
Time to see the coolest shot in Korea.
I'm here with Lee Jungjae and Jung Woosung.
Hello.
- Hello. / - Nice to be here.
It's an honor to interview you,
as if I'm a teenage girl
Thank you for coming here.
You don't seem like a teenage girl.
Did I go too far?
It's crazy that you're so good looking.
Please greet the viewers.
Hello.
I'm Lee Jungjae, greeting you from an ad filming.
Great to have you.
Hello.
I'm Jung Woosung, greeting you from an ad filming.
Great to have you.
It looks like a movie and a photoshoot.
They've been friends for 20 years
and it feels like things will be different on set.
How did you feel when learned you were both cast?
It's been a long time since we did an ad together.
I always want to do movies,
but sometimes that doesn't work out.
It's been a long time since we met.
Netizens call you the "Cheongdam-dong couple."
When they call you that,
who do you feel is more of the husband?
It's always different.
One person acts as the husband,
then suddenly he's like the wife.
We're hybrids.
Never faltering.
You must be feeling good to be so witty today.
You have to be a hybrid to not lose your friendship.
He's handsome.
You're in the same agency.
It's the most talked-about agency in Korea.
Park Sodam just joined it not long ago.
Whenever I interview actors from your agency,
the thing they tell me they have in common is
that they had rarely gone into the agency,
but you have a quiet theater,
and a script reading room,
so they say they go in to work.
It's very expensive.
- We're not losing money. / - I see.
Because I use my personal card.
Recently, your agency actor Kim Euisung
was on variety program "Happy Together."
He called you President Jung, Dept. head Lee,
Ha Jungwoo section head,
Bae Seongwoo team leader.
Who there works as hard as a section head
or a department head?
Like at company dinners, for example?
Company dinners?
Ha Jungwoo gathers a lot of people.
(Funny thinking about it)
He gathers them then he leaves quietly.
So we all have to handle things.
- He's a great dancer. / - He dances?
This guy starts dancing first.
(Embarrassed)
How do you treat others as industry seniors?
For example, Ha Jungwoo.
We use our experience as a basis
to avoid mistakes or errors.
That's what we hope for.
We give advice that doesn't seem like advice.
After debut, you became part of
Entertainment Weekly
history, with the legendary scene after
"Assassination" came out.
Viewership doubled for that scene.
- It was fun. / - It was?
In the past, there was a segment
where we went to the studio and
said hi and did interviews.
There was a part where they invited stars.
- Live. / - Yeah.
When I went, I enjoyed those memories of the past.
I see.
Jung Woosung, in the past, you promised to come to
the studio to see how much
Shin Hyunjun's nose grew.
He has a stimulating nose.
It's a dangerous nose.
We hope you come back sometime
to see Shin Hyunjun working.
I really want to go.
I hope there's time when you do your next work.
I miss both of you.
You have no work planned, right?
I want to work. I want to, but...
It's a joke, but Popeye gets caught in
"The Thieves."
He goes to jail, and the monitor James is there.
So it connects.
We joke about doing that sometimes.
Lots of fans are waiting for that.
We hope you think about that.
I'm greeting you all with my good friend
Lee Jungjae on Entertainment Weekly.
The weather is getting colder.
Please watch your health.
And stay happy.
Please root for my good friend Jung Woosung.
I'll see you again through my next great project.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
We'll look forward to both of you in the same work!
Guerrilla Date!
The man you can't help but love!
Ma Dongseok!
The star is here!
The actor who steals hearts as soon as he appears
on screen. The charming, heavyweight actor
Ma Dongseok is the star of today!
We're about to yell, "Guerrilla Date starts now!"
Can you do the flower pose?
I'll do my best like this.
Yell out "Guerrilla Date starts now!"
And do the pose!
Guerrilla Date starts now!
Let's go!
Look forward to today!
Usually people rest in between movies,
but your movies are overlapping.
Actually, I filmed "The Bros"
far before "The Outlaws."
Is "The Bros" a comedy?
Yes, a family comedy.
- You're the older brother? / - Yes.
Who's the younger brother?
Lee Donghwi is the younger brother.
We got along well during filming,
so it was great.
Please wave at the many female fans behind you.
Hello. Hello.
He's as popular as idols are.
How awkward.
You're impossible to miss on the street.
I don't try to conceal myself.
They all recognize you, right?
Yes. Before, when I wore a mask,
they'd say, "Ma Dongseok must have a cold."
Now I just don't cover up at all.
His loveliness isn't concealed at all either.
We met with some fans.
This is Ma Dongseok, back in "The Bros."
We'll look for Ma Dongseok's hidden siblings.
His hidden bros.
Where? Come on out.
Why are you Ma Dongseok's brother?
I saw him from afar and started crying.
I found my brother.
Run from that side.
We'll put on background music.
Scene number 1. You just found your
long-lost brother.
(Little bro?)
They look nice together.
Round 1 is behind us.
We also have a poem.
What should we do?
- "Brother." / - Start us off.
- B... / - Brother.
- Ro... / - In real life...
- Ther... / - There's nobody cooler than you.
Great! You're in the final round!
Great. Thank you.
Do any other hidden bros want to try?
Now another brave brother approaches!
The final round!
Start!
Goodbye.
In one go.
Ma Dongseok has found his brother!
Challengers keep approaching!
Another challenger is here.
This guy will do the game with Ma Dongseok.
I can't wait.
Get a bit closer.
No mercy! (One-hit K.O.)
(Smack smack)
He crumpled like paper.
Now a woman is approaching.
1, 2, 3!
What technique is that?
(Blushing) What are you doing?
If he was your boyfriend, what do you want to do?
I want to get carried.
- Get carried? / - Yes.
(Ye Junghwa: "I'm watching") But his girlfriend...
Yeah...
You're just stopping it from happening.
My boyfriend wouldn't like it either.
Then how about he picks up your boyfriend?
Boyfriend, come on out!
Since you're both dating.
I'll pick him up rather than carry him.
Great.
- With one arm. / - Just one arm?
Amazing.
(Monster strength) 1, 2, 3!
He easily picks him up.
(Long live Ma Dongseok) Hooray!
This is the Dongseok Statue of Liberty.
And this remarkable student.
What do you do?
I act.
You're an aspiring actor.
Can you show Ma Dongseok your acting?
- I can do a Yoo Ah-in impression. / - Okay.
I can't wait.
What line is it?
This line.
That's how I feel. Ridiculous.
How will he do?
Standby. Ready, action!
This situation is ridiculous. Yes, ridiculous.
(Hahahaha)
That's how I feel.
(Acting with passion) Ridiculous.
Ma Dongseok.
He's so lovely Dongseok can't handle himself.
Time to the room of truth!
Ma Dongseok met the residents one by one
like the next-door brother he is.
Let's move locations and discuss things deeper.
You met a lot of citizens today.
How did you feel?
I'm thankful they were so enthusiastic.
Loved action movie hero Ma Dongseok is back
with gut busting family comedy "The Bros."
I heard the laughs on set never stopped.
Lee Donghwi ad-libbed so much
and I did as well.
We had a lot of fun filming.
We were always laughing.
We prepared a still cut from the movie.
(Face like he lost everything)
I stole Lee Donghwi's clothes there.
They fit you perfectly.
The duck was much smaller at first.
I'm surprised it got so much bigger.
He looks charming even then, so we've
prepared Ma Dongseok's charm dictionary.
First is the lovely Ma dictionary.
Ma-beauty.
It means the charm of Ma Dongseok
that has been suppressed by the beauty industry.
Because of an ad...
Do you remember?
I'm the owner here. Do you want a face cushion?
Nobody's ever watched it just once.
It went viral.
How did you feel when you became a makeup model?
I got the offer and wondered
if I was right for it.
Do you wear makeup?
- I don't. / - I see.
So you can see all my pores on TV.
I'll look sideways.
So you must not know much about makeup products.
I don't.
- Concealer. / - I know that.
That's the red thing you put on like this.
Do you know eyeliner?
That's for drawing around your eyes.
Of course I know that.
Friendly Dongseok.
We brought a friendly photo.
Are you a kidnapper?
with gut-busting family comedy "The Bros.'
- Your niece. / - Yes.
Babies are
- very squishy. / - Yes.
They're not hard.
That's something only Ma Dongseok can say.
It was difficult.
- I kept sweating. / - You have to be careful.
You were scared of chicks before.
They're very squishy.
What's the next term?
You're described as "the shoulders of Chungmu-ro."
I'm not taking up a big role now.
Been in over 50 works.
You worked like a cow
and became the top star of Chungmu-ro.
Compared to other actors,
they were in school for a long time and learned,
but I didn't do that,
so I worked hard like a cow,
which was the solution for me.
What would you like
your epitaph to be?
What words would you use?
I really respect Jo Gyeonghwan.
He was in "Tiger Teacher."
I was in a drama with him, and he said,
"An athlete like you
becoming an actor isn't easy.
Try to handle it."
He said it would all work out.
Just as he said,
Being an actor that can withstand things is best.
What great advice.
Please bring your parents to see this movie
and you'll learn some life lessons.
Please watch "The Bros"!
Ma Dongseok succeeded through enduring!
We'll look forward to the movie!
(This was actor Ma Dongseok's Guerrilla Date)
It was great to see him caring for every fan.
His past movies were hits,
and I hope this movie is too.
It looks interesting from the preview.
And Jung Woosung and Lee Jungjae,
don't be all talk. I have two empty seats here,
so come to the studio to hang out sometime.
See these?
You two looked lonely filming that ad.
I'll join you next time.
Next, let's have Midnight Dinner Talk.
For Midnight Dinner Talk today,
we have Asia's best film festival, BIFF.
However, it's been limping along recently
We talked about the Busan International Film Festival.
It'll be on soon.
First, let's hear from Yoon Jiwon and Kim Saengmin.
First, we'll have Veteran.
The star today has done
villain roles, comedy, and variety.
It's the actor Oh Daehwan.
We'll check out the true stories of his life
very soon.
But first, we'll have the top Chungmu-ro stars.
I met with Kim Hyesu, Lee Seongyun, and Lee Heejun.
Unlike their fierce charisma on the screen,
they showed their cute side.
Let's check out their charms.
We have the most devilishly charming actors here!
(Ambitious Lee Heejun)
A meeting with the most charismatic stars in Korea
who will dominate screens this fall!
Let's meet them!
I'm with the stars of "A Special Lady,"
Lee Seongyun, Kim Hyesu and Lee Heejun.
- Hello. Glad to have you. / - Hello.
I'm Lee Seongyun and I play the role of
Kim Sanghun, the troubleshooter of the team.
I'm Lee Heejun, the ambitious prosecutor in the movie
who's in charge of Choi Daesik's case.
Long time no see, Entertainment Weekly viewers.
I'm Kim Hyesu and I play Na Hyeonjeong.
The movie is called "A Special Lady" and
I thought that was Hyesu's character's name,
but you said your character is named Hyeonjeong.
She has no choice but to hide her previous name
and live as Na Hyeonjeong,
which is what the movie is about.
"A Special Lady" has made headlines
for Kim Hyesu's shocking transformation.
It's a threat.
It's received high expectations for its
noir portrayal of a fierce female protagonist.
Lee Heejun is a star prosecutor.
Yes.
Does the role suit you?
(Hesitating)
Yes.
Lee Seongyun, in your opinion,
what percent is the real Lee Heejun
in sync with his character?
About 90%?
(That's a relief)
That means it was that perfect.
We saw a completely new side of you, Seongyun.
Another side of actor Lee Seongyun
is present.
Seongyun's character is very macho.
He's never had a manly role before,
but you'll get to see it now.
He's like Korea's Ryan Gosling.
Don't say that, I'll get hated for that.
We'll leave the choice to you!
What do you think? Do they resemble each other?
It's clear from the posters
and the trailer
that you changed your hair in a shocking way.
I wasn't sure about the color.
I was hesitant at first.
But the director was insistent
and chose the color I wanted.
I think it coincided with
the styling of Na Hyeonjeong in the movie.
Lee Heejun, you study impressions through books?
I'm jealous of people good at impressions.
So I bought a book on it to learn.
There's a book like that?
- It's by Kim Hakdo. / - Please show us.
It's all explained in there.
Park Yeonggyu does it like this...
Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on.
Oh Jimyeong dual wields pistols
One goes back and forth and one traces a star.
And that makes a truck noise.
He's very serious.
That's how he cusses. "Hey, you..." Like that.
You're close, but it needs some work.
Seongyun, what do you do
when you don't have to film?
I drink with my friends.
How much can you drink?
He's the best.
I think Lee Heejun wants to add something.
- He drinks really well. / - Really?
- He has a strong liver. / - Yes.
I enjoy stripe maple and oriental raisin tree tonic.
I get it from Gyeongdong market.
The movie is described as focusing on the events
that occur when people find
each other's weaknesses.
What's your weakness?
- My beer belly? / - Really?
Now that I'm getting older, if I don't take care
of my body, and since I like alcohol...
I get much chubbier than when I was young.
I can't tell at all.
I wore two layers.
How humble of you.
To hide it.
What's your weakness, Heejun?
The suffocating yet proper habit
of learning through books.
Kim Saengmin, who just passed 20 years as a
reporter, said that was thankful to
actress Kim Hyesu.
I've liked Saengmin for a long time.
Because he's not trying to get himself out there.
He always puts people above him.
Despite his profession,
he's a very hardworking and professional celebrity.
Please say a few words to him.
Saengmin,
just as you've always done,
I hope you get the hang of your job.
I'm very glad that many people are empathizing
with your recent life philosophy guidelines.
Saengmin is really great.
- He's cool. / - Yes.
- It's very fun. / - You like it?
You seem like you'd watch it.
Stupid!
Lee Heejun confirms he's a fan.
And finally, what does "A Special Lady" have in it?
"A Special Lady"
has ice-coldness and fiery heat.
It has the crossing of heated passion.
"A Special Lady" has a special lady.
It's perfect for November.
Look forward to it.
We hope you watch it in theaters.
Please show it lots of love.
Thank you.
We hope it's a hit!
Good luck!
21 years as a reporter!
A dinosaur of the journalism industry!
Before the investigation, please take this.
What is this?
It's from Chief Shin of the National Police Agency.
- Chief Shin? / - Yes.
Lettuce leaves?
"This is how I feel. Keep it up.
From Shin Hyunjun."
This has to be funny.
Who's under investigation today?
He's got deep eyes
that tears rush out of like a flood.
He's a supernova of villain roles.
The main who captivates all
as he acts out sexy villain roles! (Source: MBC)
We need a more thorough investigation than ever.
Today Veteran is interesting. Stay tuned.
(Veteran investigation room is full of tension)
You made it.
How do you feel sitting here?
You heard? Look forward to working with you.
(What do you mean?)
No...
(Voice sweeter than it seemed it would be)
I heard a terrifying actor would be here,
but your pose is really frightening.
I thought you were a baseball player.
Please calm down and investigate!
Okay.
Please reveal everything about this
actor in detail!
Oh Daehwan, born July 5, 1979.
Profession: Actor.
But wait...
His original dream wasn't to be an actor.
That's right. We investigated.
There's a space for "job" until 11th grade.
Mine was deep-sea boat captain.
One time while watching TV
on the Pacific... The fisherman are huge
because the tuna are giant.
Have you been on a boat before?
Yes, a few times while filming.
It was much different than what I thought.
I got a bit seasick.
That would've been bad.
I almost died while fishing for tuna.
Okay.
Then you began studying acting.
How did you get into acting?
I was the student body president in 12th grade.
But I was the worst at studying among
the presidents.
So I thought of doing art and physical education.
I used book learning and practical training
and while wondering about that...
My hometown is Cheonan.
An acting academy opened up for the first time.
As if by destiny.
I thought about going.
So I went and it was destiny.
His acting path came like fate.
Coincidence became fate and his life changed.
After a long time of not being recognized,
now he's become an irreplaceable top actor.
(Source: MBC)
We listened to stories of his acting life.
He's on top nowadays.
I heard you were such a loner
that you had nobody to act with.
School life was fierce.
The good students tried to act together.
I had a bit of accent, so
I had some pronunciation mistakes.
After about a year, Yoosun returned.
She didn't know about that, so we got close.
One line was, "Have some dandelion wine,"
but I said, "Have some dandeli-yun wine."
So she said my accent was weird. (Source: SBS)
I kept trying to get the pronunciation right.
She told me I had to pass that semester to graduate.
She's much older than me.
I just had to pass that to graduate.
I was severely scolded once.
- Hold on. / - Why?
You're laughing right now.
(Nervous) You shouldn't go easy on men.
You went into the bathroom with a mask on
and did something terrible.
He's done for now.
What terrible thing did you do?
That wasn't the bathroom.
It was my car.
In the drama "Shopping King Louie,"
there was a scene
where I pooped in a car.
A scene only Oh Daehwan can pull off. (Source: MBC)
This was true real-to-life acting.
Hold it in!
Oh daddy! Daddy!
(Famous scene called "fart romance")
That was called "Fart Romance."
It wasn't too bad.
Because that scene got so many views.
On TV, they say that was my best scene.
So you gained popularity and now are on top.
Then you were in the movie "Veteran."
The movie sold over 10 million tickets.
With the three syllables of Oh Daehwan's name,
this work was imprinted in the minds of the public.
"Veteran" did so well.
So I thought I'd get cast easily,
I had high expectations.
You thought it was going to be your year.
But I got nothing. No calls.
I felt small.
I felt sorry for my family
and felt like I was being too greedy.
I felt I was too selfish.
I live near Garak market
and I worked there moving potatoes.
After "Veteran"?
Yes, after.
I also looked into working as a driver,
- but it was so confusing. / - The process?
Yes, taxis are.
You can't just all of a sudden become a taxi driver.
While I was considering what to do,
my wife told me
that I was doing poorly in the past and right now,
and asked what I was considering.
She said to finish what I had already started.
She asked, "You think I married you to be rich?"
- We're the same age. / - That's touching.
Please send your wife a message.
But... I have to be careful saying this.
- Please skip this. / - Okay.
She hates things like this.
Yeah, to be honest...
She's like, "You didn't feel embarrassed
doing that?"
And I say, "What, should I cuss you out then?"
You can't beat the beauty
of a married couple the same age.
You have to win your wife's heart to marry.
It must've been hard to win over her mother.
She was very against it.
My wife gave me a tip by saying her mom was
getting insurance, so I called her mom and said
thank you for getting insurance,
and her mom got nice
all of a sudden and gave me a great line.
"Even if you can't feed yourself, get insurance."
I got a $700 policy.
I'm paying into it still right now.
It's been 10 to 15 years.
Please send your mother-in-law a message.
Thank you.
Next topic is your villain roles.
It was last year when
you did six villain roles.
The one most known to the public is my role of
Ma Jinsang in "38 Revenue Collection Unit."
There was this line in it.
"The law follows money, man."
That line enraged a lot of people.
If you start off doing villain roles,
you get typecast as a villain.
But it's actually pretty fun.
How is the life of an actor?
You're life has been a marathon with no breaks.
Do you have any credo?
The thing I do best
is acting.
My family supports and believes in me.
I want to work harder for my family, who have
supported me, to give them a better life.
They went through a lot.
I want to make up for that.
We're cheering for you.
Thanks to his family always on his side, (Source: MBC)
he was able to endure his long acting career.
Actor Oh Daehwan.
He's pretty cool.
No matter what tough times befall him,
the manly man who never gives up.
Actor Oh Daehwan! Thank you for the interview today.
- Investigation complete! / - Complete!
Thank you.
We want to see more of you for a long time.
Always rooting for you.
He's awesome but so is his wife.
We're cheering you on.
The 22nd Busan International Film Festival,
which just ended, delved into this year's films.
The festival had some problems this year.
Can it overcome this crisis
and regain its spot as Asia's top film festival?
Welcome to Midnight Dinner Talk.
Long time no see, ma'am.
- Yes, hello. / - What have you been up to?
I just got back from my honeymoon.
We got married, and now I had my comeback.
You're glowing.
I know. When I'm busy and touch my face a lot,
I never hear that.
Now that I'm heading back to being natural...
Thank you.
Welcome to marriage.
We have a new guest today.
I'm Lee Jihye, a film journalist.
You two have the same name.
I really wanted to meet her.
- This is the first time seeing her? / - Yes.
With that said let's talk about the Busan
International Film Festival with Lee Jihye the wife
and Lee Jihye the film expert reporter.
It's the 22nd year, right?
It had a lot of complications.
And a lot of scandalous issues.
(Seo Shinae's dress)
(President Mun Jaein's surprise visit)
(The stars who shined in Busan)
If you search "BIFF," the word "struggling"
appears in the autofill box.
It started in 2014.
"Diving Bell" was to be screened but the festival
and the city of Busan had a conflict over it.
BIFF said not to screen it,
but Busan pressured them
and BIFF said that their freedom was being
violated, so BIFF was forced to screen it.
After that, the budget was reduced
by around $800,000 for no reason.
Last year, it underwent administrative inspection,
and the resignation of director Lee Yonggwan
was demanded.
And that's where we are today.
The city of Busan presented primary problems
so their criticism will be focused on first.
The explanation that the festival is being hampered
due to political reasons is unlucky for the festival.
I'd say that's more angering than just unlucky.
It's kind of ridiculous that in this
day and age they're arguing over which movies
- to play and not. / - Exactly.
Was there political pressure to screen
"Diving Bell"?
Jeonju Film Festival in 2013 had a similar incident.
There was a movie called "Project Cheonan Ship"
and there was political pressure surrounding it.
Jeonju pushed forward with screening it.
Later, they also invested in
the movie "No Muhyeon."
At the Jeonju Film Festival.
After that, their budget was reduced by
around $40,000.
Despite planning for that loss,
they guaranteed freedom of expression in the films.
Those in the movie industry will
all boycott BIFF this year.
This is called the movie industry boycott.
There's not much else they can do.
Another thing they can do is
rather than a mass boycott...
The closing film is "Glass Garden."
Director Shin Suwon stated
that they got guidelines, but they
can choose whether to boycott or not
and that it's fine if they don't.
So the director thought about that and decided
it would be best to have her work
as the closing film.
So she participated in it.
I view the boycott as an individual choice.
The thing the boycott is lacking is
that those supporting the festival
are the residents
of Busan, and I wonder how things would have
been if their opinions were taken into account.
From the point of view of the residents,
a film festival is, like we stated earlier,
a festival for those in the industry, the public,
and fans to all enjoy together.
The city and festival,
have become a starting point of losing credibility.
It's a great opportunity to show
Korea to the world.
We got to film festivals like that,
and they show that BIFF is sorely lacking.
The location is by the beach and looks magnificent.
During the festival, there are food carts,
and the moviemakers gather there,
and the foreigners really enjoy it.
That's our culture.
Then it gets expensive.
- It's so expensive. / - Way too expensive.
But they have to do that during the festival.
- It's the high season. / - But it went over budget.
That's a shame.
What economic influence do film festivals exert?
At its peak in 2013,
it brings in over over $210,000,000.
That's a huge number,
but if you go to the film festival, you'll feel it.
There's a sea of people.
There's also the job creation effect.
Above all it has the benefit of making
Korean film more known.
It's hard to put a price on the value of that.
That's priceless.
I hope we can look into that.
For actress Lee Jihye,
whether you are crying or laughing has
nothing to do with BIFF, right?
I went to the Bucheon Film Festival.
The audience must've been so disappointed.
Disappointed? It made headlines!
I'm suddenly convinced by Lee Jihye's acting.
Since she went to the "Fantastic" Film Festival.
It's dreamlike.
I think I should re-enter movies.
Why are you all laughing?
How can the director laugh?
Is there any turning point in sight for BIFF,
which is so fraught with scandal?
The guest that got more attention
than any star or director was president Mun Jaein.
On October 15, he watched the movie "Missing GV"
and spoke with the audience.
We've been in a depression for 2-3 years,
which is saddening.
We will support it and not meddle.
If they follow that policy,
I believe BIFF can revive themselves.
We will support it and not meddle.
That should be applied to not just film festivals,
but all kinds of cultural policies.
That's what the film festival has been hoping for.
That's called the arm's length principle.
The arm's length principle?
It means to only interfere at an arm's length.
It began in Britain in the 1950s.
According to the rule,
in order to foster culture,
they won't intervene or interfere.
That's what Mun Jaein is trying to do.
Do you have any further comments?
I think it's growing pains.
Cannes and Berlin film festivals were like that.
Sometimes they were cancelled
for political reasons.
I think all international film festivals
must undergo that at some point.
It's a film festival with much influence and potential.
After these growing pains,
I believe it will grow bigger.
Right now it's 22 years old.
After some intense growing pains,
it'll develop and grow in a great way.
Although we keep saying this,
I hope that the city, BIFF, the movie makers,
and the citizens all get through this together.
This is when they must show that
they have the ability to get through this themselves.
Great comment.
I think Jihye is a great name.
We don't have enough Jihyes.
Thanks for all the comments today.
Please jot down your thoughts.
Thank you.
(Film Festivals belong to the moviemakers and people)
(Citizens must remember they are in charge)
(I believe these growing pains can be overcome)
(Don't forget your original intention)
The talk host of Midnight Dinner Talk
did a fantastic job.
That's all the news we have for today.
See you next week.
Everyone, be happy!
