[A 38 seconds preview of today's guest] I have to pack 7 days worth but I packed 10

But I don't have that much underwear

You don't have 10 underwear at home?

You are really frugal

- How do you know that? - It's because

He kept on getting it wrong, so I was like he can't do this?

Avoid the beat

- It's automatic - What are you doing at this hour?

How you're sitting and all, I feel like only you two are taking

- Oh, yeah, neutrally - Come a little this way

Put it in neutral

Her body is shifting a lot

Were you a little lonely?

IU was turning more and more...

At the end, like this

[Are you doing well.. this winter?]

[A cold winter day, at a cozy alcove]

[Warm and cozy]

[We'll chat while enjoying sweets]

[Pinggyego!]

Huh, what is this?

Today's Pinggyego is 'Surviving Winter'

Surviving Winter?

Haven't we already survived winter?

This will be uploaded near the end of winter...

Oh my

[Se Chan arrives] The top star assistant expert MC

I'll be in charge of the top stars!

You're dressed fancy today

[#ootd] Yes, I did

IU is coming

Have you seen IU before?

Oh, I thought I haven't

But to think of it, I was the MC for her fan meeting

[8 years ago, IU's fan meeting] I don't know if she'll remember me

- She'll remember - She will, right?

It was a good memory for me, because

Before the fan meeting, she came to my dressing room

- And gave me a bottle of liquor - Wow

As a way to say thank you

And I should've done my part

But I messed up the fan meeting

- Why did you do that? - I was nervous!

And because she'd given me a gift, I was like, 'Wait, do I have to do better?'

[Good memory but is sorry] I overreacted and messed it up

[The guest arrives] Oh, IU

IU!

How have you been?

I'm.. how have you been?

- Wow, awesome, hello - Oh, hello

YA! She dressed so comfortably and you're...

I'm too dressy...

Look at me! This is what I do!

I mean! Even she's dressed comfortably

- Why are you so - I don't know(?)

I get nauseous around famous celebs

[Everybody has a seat] Please, sit down

[9AM] Is it okay, so early in the morning?

Yes, woah

[Speaks louder than words]

I feel like I'm dreaming

You feel like you're dreaming?

You talk better when you're dreaming

- Often saying unexpected things - Right, right

When you're dreaming or

[It's better] When you're not completely awake

- That's when people talk more - Right

Do you normally wake up early?

Oh, I wake up late

[Him] He wakes up early

- Oh, is that so - He doesn't get

- Much sleep - No

What time do you usually get up?

When I don't have work, I wake up at 1 or 2

- What time for you? - For me, around 7...

[wow] Or wake up at around 6

He's a baby! He goes to sleep at 9!

[Like a toddler] Goes to sleep at 9 and wakes up at 7

- You go to bed at 9? - He's a baby

I sleep at around 10!

- What time do you go to sleep? - For me...

Around 3 to 4?

Around 3 to 4? I go to sleep pretty late

Oh, if you sleep at 3 to 4 and wake up at 1

- You sleep a lot - A lot

Hehehehe

You're the real baby?

[Baby 1 / Baby 2] She sleeps longer

My daughter Naeun sleeps for 10 hours

I like to sleep

Oh

Do you not wake up in between?

No! I wake up a lot

[Tries to fall back asleep again] But I don't really get up and keep...

Right, right

[Tossing the question] What time do you sleep?

I sleep at around 11 or 12

You're very organized

[Sleeps for 8-10 hours] I wake up at around 8 or 9

- Oh... - I sometimes sleep for 12 hours...

- Oh... - Oh...

- Why are you looking at me like that? - Everyone's still dreaming.. oh me?

[People who'd normally be sleeping now] I feel like you're kind of like me right now

- Still dreaming - Yeah, that's right

[Something to wake them up] Have something to drink

Sounds good

Water please!

- Oh, tea is good too - Give us all

[Shaking chrysanthemum tea] Thank you

Why are you shaking the cup so much?

[First time seeing the maknae writer shaking]

Thank you for the drink

I mean... why are you so nervous?

Shaking the cup

[Shaking] Oh, why are you shaking?

Do you have tremor?

Thank you

What's going on?

[Can't hide sneezes and love] Do you have a tremor?

[*Referring to Lunar New Year's Pinggyego*] Have you been drinking heavily? What's going on?

What's happening?

Shaking like this!

I thought it was something like

[Leaves quickly after delivering the drink] [(NervousnessX)]

[Delivering americano comfortably]

- I understand why - Yeah

Oh, this is so fancy

Oh, this

- A flower - They did this for you

But there has to be something like this

[Crew is familiar with Jae Seok and Se Chan] They often see us

- We're just - They feel nothing!

- They feel nothing! - A neighborhood hyung!

If someone with a different scene comes on, they get excited

- Thank you - But the same goes for them too

If we go to your scenes,

- They also get excited - Right, right!

They think it's so cool!

[Curious about other scenes] It's like that in the entertainment industry

Haven't you not been on shows lately?

Like variety shows?

Until recently, I had been filming a drama for quite some time

And my album's coming out soon

How long has it been since your last?

[IU 'The Winning'] A bit over 2 years?

- 2 years? - It's been a while

['Love wins all' was pre-released on January 24th] It was released two days ago

'Love wins all'

Yes, the pre-release song

The music video looked like a movie

- Have you seen it? - Of course, I saw

- Yes, I saw! - Thank you

I mean can I come here without seeing it?

[We're not like that!] That's crappy

You'd have to give up your job

- Give it up - Of course

I often watch Pinggyego from time to time

They don't really promote

[That's right] So I cleared my head

But I'm thankful that you brought it up first

- Of course, we should - This is it!

- We don't talk about it longer - Oh right? Haha, this is it?

- This is a lot - Don't be disappointed

[Don't be disappointed, we'll talk more about it] Still, thank you

If you feel like it's not enough, then tell me

[Relieved] Thank you

Okay?

When I hear IU,

I think of IU meeting Myung Soo for the first time

[Bursting into laughter] Naengmyeon

- I went to sing 'Naengmyeon' as a guest - She did

Oh! As a guest

[Infinite Challenge Olympic Expressway Music Festival] Myung Soo was supposed to sing

[Originally sung with Jessica] Naengmyeon that day

But when IU came,

Bring Jessica! Jessica!

- Really? - Yeah

But! I can't forget IU's eyes at the time

What was it like?

You didn't seem bothered by it at all...

- She could have been nervous? - Yeah!

Even if Myung Soo was kidding

She could've felt uneasy

But it wasn't like that

It wasn't for long but when I saw her eyes,

[Not easygoing] I was like, she's really something...

It was for a quick second

[Successful ever since] But after IU became

A huge star

Myung Soo keeps apologizing to me until now

[Hahaha]

Every time we meet! He still apologizes

I'm sorry

[Recent story] Because his name came up,

- He called me not long ago - Oh, why

He usually never calls

Yeah, he doesn't

He called

And I picked up saying, "Yes, hello?"

Huh, why are you picking up?

[Just answered because it rang]

- He was surprised! - Surprised!

- Why did you pick up! - Because he was surprised!

- Because he was surprised! - But the point was!

To tell me to not go on Pinggyego

Or Shin Dong-yup's show when I'm making a comeback

And come on 'Halmyungsoo'!

- She's saying this on Pinggyego - He gathered up the courage!

- Telling us this on Pinggyego - Hyung! I'm sorry!

It took him courage

- Yeah - A lot of courage

He's only called me once this year

[Not like Myung Soo to call first] He normally doesn't call first

He called me and said

"Hey, let's meet up"

Really?

"I miss all of you guys"

- You can just meet up, why don't you? - Huh?

You can just see each other

[Just cause]

- We just call - You don't really get a chance to meet up

Oh, I know the feeling

[Planning] We're planning to meet up

With everyone in February

With Myung Soo! It'll be fun

- So fun - So fun

Oh and! Se Chan

Yes Se Chan

Se Chan sunbae-nim

[plz] Call me Se Chan

Did you know that he was the MC for your fan meeting?

[Forgotten memories]

Did you get your foot stomped?

Did you get your foot stomped?

[Grabbing foot]

- Your foot got stomped? - Someone just stomped on her foot(?)

She hit her foot

- You remember? - Of course, I do!

Of course

But to be honest, you just reminded me of it

Me too!

I was like, 'IU's coming on the show, that's so cool, it's my first time seeing her'

[Or is it...] Have I met her before...?

[Ah2] Ahh, it was the same for me

[Bringing out memories] In my car, I was like, oh right!

When did you see each other then?

When she did the drama! The moon..?

[Released in 2016] 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo'

When she did that!

- Almost 10 years ago - Wow

It was 10 years ago?

That was 10 years ago?

[Time flies fast] Almost 10 years

10 years ago.. I was so thankful

Oh, no, I'm the one that's thankful

- He told me he was a mess - I was a mess

[Honest]

Do you remember giving me liquor?

Of course!

I was so burdened that I messed up

- He was trying to do better! - To do better

If I hadn't given you...

- But because I did... - Yeah...

- If you call me again, - She shouldn't have given him the gift

- She shouldn't have given him the gift - I'll do my best!

Then I won't prepare anything in advance

Don't give me anything

We can't even run into each other behind the stage

- To make you comfortable! - And just on stage

[Promising next fan meeting] Okay

- But thank you very much - Thank you too

Se Chan kept that in his heart

[Looking for the perfect timing] I should've done better

He was trying to do so well

It was so much fun!

- You remember it from 10 years ago? - Of course!

- Of course? - Of course

[Pinggyego]

[Time to recharge] Grab a bite

Fondue! Is this fondue?

Yes, chocolate fondue

[Nom] What's this!

Don't do it with a knife haha

[Charging with sugar]

It's so good

[Nom] This is good for breakfast

- Is it your first meal of the day? - No!

Oh? You ate before?

I had 5 kimbaps

5 rows?

Not 5 rows, 5!

I don't do mukbangs

5 rows

I didn't think it was just 5 either

Did you have breakfast?

I had like 5 bites of kimchi fried rice

You need to eat breakfast

Have you eaten?

There was leftover stir-fried pork from the day before

I had that with two eggs

That was my breakfast

- This morning? - Yeah!

Wow, amazing

(Curious) You eat breakfast that early every day?

I do, at around 8?

I always eat breakfast

[IU's current interest = Healthy lifestyle] I've been into healthy lifestyles

- You are? - It's like

I'm not really into it yet

[Just a little taste?] You're thinking about it

- But not? - I'm not into it yet

I'm starting to get a little interest

Do you have food at home or do you deliver?

I usually eat delivery food

What do you normally have? Like salads?

No, I don't really like uncooked vegetables

[Similarity found] Right

I think about eating salads more

[Just promises] And to eat more vegetables

But I don't really like raw vegetables either

And the dressing?

If you pour too much of that, you gain weight

- That's right! - If you dip it in!

Yeah! I just dip it like fondue

[Dressing with a side of salad...]

I gained more weight

- So that it's dripping in dressing? - Yeah!

It's good but I kept gaining more weight

[Secret of dressing] You're supposed to sprinkle a small amount, right?

Yeah, that's right

But the scent of raw vegetables is too strong without it

That's why I end up pouring a lot

And so I don't eat salads

- Then that's alright - It's not easy

Eating vegetables with meat is good

Oh I like that

That's really good for you

[Investigation mode] Even if it's annoying

Do you have a lot of Doenjang with it?

A lot!

Like fondue

[Vegetables wrapped in Doenjang...] I just dip a gracious amount

It's hard

[Healthy lifestyle talk continues] It's hard to eat healthy

Right

I haven't really paid attention to that kind of thing

I just took daily supplements

And being in my 30s I start to think about

Having a healthy pattern and going to bed early

[Trying to put it into practice] Stuff like that

I also said this a lot before

But before marriage, I was like that too

I slept that 2, 3 in the morning

It changed after marriage

Now that I've been living like this for a while,

- It's really nice - Is it?

But when you're living alone, it's not bad to live like that

What do you do when you wake up so early?

I get a little lonely when I wake up early

[Confessing loneliness] And it's like, why did I wake up so early?

I got nothing to do anyways

And I just end up staying in bed

So I like having work

[Tossing the question] You don't really like resting, right?

I like resting when working

- But just resting without work is... - Oh

- It's hell - It's hell!

It doesn't feel like resting otherwise

[And you?] That's true

I don't rest that much

But... IU's good at interviewing

You have your own channel as well

You're really good at it here

[A bridge] I'm also sitting in the middle

[Feels the need to interview] I knew that she would ask me the question next

- Hahaha! - I kept thinking about what to say

Knowing that she was going to ask me

[Experienced] I keep thinking about it one by one

IU's also good at being the MC

- She's very good - Yeah! Very good

[Collusion] There's another thing I wanted to ask

What is it?

- Heh... - I feel like you're the guest on her channel

Honestly, I haven't asked a lot of questions today

[Losing the lead]

Ask away

Your hairstyle is always the same

[2023 Hairstyle] Perfectly same

Do you set a certain style

[Really curious] And adjust it to that?

IU's wondering

If you just put it on and off like a robot

["Here it is"] This one

- There's no difference in length - Putting the wig on and off

[Wondering if it's a wig?] No? Not that?

How... how do you manage your hair?

I've said this before

Cool people can pull off any style nicely

[Relatable] Normally

But for people like us

[Bursting out of laughter before hearing it]

Change doesn't look good, like glass frames and such

Your best!

Yeah, I have that

This is my Best!

I'm very satisfied

Hahaha

Why are you laughing?

[Failed to hold back laughter] Why are you laughing?

What's wrong?

[Good]

You got a double thumbs-up

I recently bleached my hair for the first time in a long time

Oh right!

Yeah! I did a pink hair

And now it's back to normal

There's a bit of grey in there

A little, right?

Why didn't you keep your hair like that?

But I have to keep dying my roots

- Dying roots - It's difficult to manage

You have to go every once in a few days

And have to make a color, and dye my roots

Wow...

[Pretty hair requires a lot of effort] It must be hard

It's not easy

IU's hair looks free right now but

[Not free]

- If I were to show you the back - Right

They put in a lot of effort

It's not natural-natural

It looks like something I did at home

But it was done by the experts, one strand at a time

And when I look at Pinggyego

[Comfortable vibe] A comfy vibe seemed to be important

- Right, right - Natural, comfy vibe

[Oops!]

I look too made up, right?

[Correct]

[Super dressy]

- Dressy - Super dressy

Dressed up on purpose

[OOTD that stands out] He normally doesn't dress like this

When Se Chan is on the show

I saw him dress super casually

So I told my makeup and hairstylist to

- Do it naturally - Naturally

That's what's important with Pinggyego

But I come in

And saw you dressed so nicely

[Today's best dresser : Yang Se Chan]

I

[Pressed down] Pressed it down hard

Usually, I wear my own cardigan

[Another person who came dressed up] But I heard IU was coming

And got this from a brand

It's quite different from my everyday style

[Point : Weaves] There are weaves

I happen to be the most comfortably dressed

I'm the guest too...

No, no, you did the best

[Perfect for Pinggyego] This is the definition of natural

The essence

I should dress more like IU

[Pinggyego]

What do you usually do in your spare time?

- In my spare time I just - Just rest?

I just sit at the table

Yeah, you're not sitting at the table for 6 to 7 hours though

- I sit there for 6-7 hours - Oh really?

- I sit down - And?

[Things I do sitting at the table] I go on my phone

I zone out

I eat and don't clean it up and stay like this

I kinda lie down in the chair like this

I don't go to the sofa after sitting at the table

[Spends most of the time at the table] You just sit at the table?

- I just sit at the table - That's cool

I have breakfast and sit there for a while

And soon it's time for dinner so I order diner

[There's a scary legend...]

[There's someone who doesn't leave] It's scary

[The table all day...] It's scary

I'm really good at sitting down in one place!

I didn't know that could be a trait

[Netflix Original Drama 'When Life Gives You Tangerines'] Recently, I filmed a drama

For about 1 year

And I heard that a lot from others

[Setting the scene] There are times

In between takes

Then normally, people go to the dressing room or to the toilet or walk around

But I sit there still until everything's set up

And everyone comes back

I didn't know it was an unusual thing

But to me, that's more comfortable

[Impossible for these two] People like us can't do that

We have a light bum

- So we get up sit here and there - Get up

Even at home, I walk around

6 hours is really cool

I'm really confident in sitting in the same place for a long time

What do you do on your phone?

On my phone... I go on Instagram

Funny videos are addicting too

[Time flies by] You don't realize the time passing by

I look at stuff like that

And if I'm curious about spelling or spacing words

[Resolves questions] I look that up

I search for that

[Busy even when sitting still] Really?

I feel like you'd

Sit at the table with a small guitar...

[Even at home] Work on songs

Cele-b-ri-ty

[Sounds somewhat different]

I (ding ding ding)

Like you (ding ding ding)

Oppa (Weee!)

[Rock version of 'Good Day' alone at home]

I feel like you'd do that

But you're not like that

Not so much

Unless I'm working on my album,

[On and off work] I don't do much

You don't invite your friends home or go out?

No haha

It's uncomfortable... having someone over

[Relatable] Yeah

So people are surprised when they come over

"This is how you live?"

[Real house review]

How else would you live

- You don't have much - I don't

There's not much I need

But I have a lot of things piled up

[Clean in the homeowner's eyes] But to me, it looks

- Tidy? - Yes, tidy

And I don't really like to go out

So I just spend my time like that

[Likes to spend some time alone at home]

Se Chan spends most of his time at home too

I usually just stay home

And he cooks his meals

I like to eat and for delivery food,

I tried out every restaurant in my neighborhood

[Already mastered] So you're a bit sick of it now?

I tried it all, even the gukbap restaurants

It was even like, "Okay, you and me, let's see who wins"

And had it for an entire week!

[In the end] It's best to just cook for yourself

Yeah

You have to be so diligent, to cook

Right, it's a lot of work

Is there anything you tried to make recently?

No

[Zero hesitation]

I guess you haven't for a year or so

Really, I haven't cooked in over a year

I was once into cooking

[Knowing how difficult it is] So that's why I think he's so amazing

Cooking is...

What are you good at making?

- Me, something I'm good at? - Something

[Thinking...] That you cook for the guests

Does everyone have something that they're good at?

- Like a secret weapon - You have one?

- Bean sprout soup for me - For me, ramyeon

- Oh ramyeon? - I'm good at making ramyeon

Oh, me too...

For me, cup noodles... hahaha

[Huh] Cup noodles?

[Curious] How do you cook cup noodles well?

How do you make it? Adjusting water?

The amount of water is important

How much time to put in the microwave

[Some cup noodles taste better]

[After popping it in the microwave] Stuff like that

And serving that with delicious kimchi

- Do you make the kimchi yourself? - Hahaha

[Doesn't make her own kimchi] No

- I have various types of kimchi at home - How?

I have homemade kimchi

- Other people's homemade kimchi - Oh that someone sent you?

Yeah, I really like kimchi

Kimchi is all I need

- That's it? - Yeah

Whenever I'm stressed, I just eat kimchi

[Kimchi lover] Really?

Yes, I really like kimchi

So I have so many types of kimchi in my kimchi refrigerator

You like green onion kimchi too?

- I like gat kimchi and green onion kimchi - You have it all

And I even have Geotjeori at home

[Kimchi wins all] So now

Obviously, I have kimchi at my house too

But I... I'm the problem

I don't like annoying things

So whenever kimchi is on a plate, I eat it

But if it's in a container,

[In kimchi refrigerator] [In the kimchi container]

- Then... I don't eat it - Really?

Because it's too much work?

[Annoyance overcomes appetite] I don't like things to be annoying

[New Year's greetings is just an excuse!] Even when Seojin was on the show

We talked about that

Do you peel shrimps and eat them or no?

Never

[Similarity found] Exactly

That's a bit annoying to do

There's prawns

And it's nicely grilled with salt

You don't eat it? You just look at it?

The minute salt-grilled prawns come out, I'm like,

'Won't it be too salty?'

[Cannot understand] No, why will it be too salty?

- Because it's salt grilled - It's just perfect

[Similar foods include Ganjang Gejang] Even with Ganjang Gejang,

It's so good but it's annoying to peel

[Don't eat things that are bothersome] It is

Wow...

That's why they're so skinny

[Found out why] That's why you're so skinny

This is what skinny people say!

- "I'm lazy!" - Too skinny hahaha

"I can't eat Ganjang Gejang"

[Furious] It's a total explosion of carb

You eat the legs by squeezing the fat out

Maybe it's because I've been saying stuff like this

But people have been talking about

[What Yu Jae Seok eats at buffets.jpg] What I eat at buffets

[Was a trending meme that showed eating kimchi pancakes, and fried food]

- The things I eat - What do you eat?

I usually eat kimbap, things that are easy to eat

Rice cakes!

[Another similarity] I'm like that too

What a waste to go to buffets!

[Different taste] This is just

- Kimchi - Yes

When someone picks up a kimbap at a buffet,

- Then it's a smack in the back - Yeah

I'm like, "Hey, eat the meat first!"

- Things that are easy to eat, like Tangsuyuk - Seafood

Tangsuyuk

I always have Tangsuyuk, and then spaghetti

I was gonna say the same thing

[Their own world / Shakes head...] You too?

After you had spaghetti,

Do you go back for more or no?

After that, I have dessert

You're done? Finished?

You're finished?

So I think it's a waste to go to buffets

[Not a big eater] Yeah

- Because you get full fast - You have a small portion

People like this can't

You're practically eating when you're picking the food

That's enough for me

[Shocked]

- Visually - Too skinny

[Full looking at the food]

It's visually satisfying

A lot of people have trouble agreeing, hahaha

After looking at it, and smelling it, I feel full

[Relatable] And can't eat much

Wow... they need to learn how to eat at buffets

[How to enjoy a buffet] As soon as I get there, I scan the place

And I start with meat

Or seafood

But when we go, we just eat what we want to eat

- Kimbap - Things I'm craving

[Doesn't pick food] Spaghetti, Tangsuyuk

[Regarding the price] I eat that

With kimchi and japchae!

Rice cakes 222

[A must] Rice cakes

I really like rice cakes

[True Korean who loves kimchi and rice cakes] Oh you like rice cakes

[Found another similarity] I like rice cakes too

Eating like this will get a lot of criticism

[Relatable again] "You're eating this at a buffet?"

I hear that all the time, so I don't want to go to buffets anymore

- From others - Yeah, I hear that all the time

What do people say?

When I normally go with my family,

[Always] They're like, you don't know how to eat

They say things like that

Why are you eating stuff

- That you can eat at home? - Are you finished already?

Right

Eat this instead

And there, they cook you special dishes on the iron pan

But for that, you have to wait

[Lazy to wait] You don't wait?

I just give up if the line's too long

It was like that for me

They're sweating, working so hard in front of the fire

I didn't want to trouble them

So I just left

[So considerate]

Considerate

It's my first time seeing someone who thinks like this

Me too!

I just left...

It's a whole new level of consideration

Maybe because it was summer

[Overly considerate] Yeah

It was too hot

Are you usually this good at empathizing?

My MBTI is ISFP (Emotional type)

When I'm working, people think

[Thinking type] That I'm like a 'T'

Because I can be direct

[Example from the past]

I don't really know my personality either

(MBTI) What's yours?

I'm INFJ

[A well-intended advocate, INFJ]

J? Super organized?

Yeah, I'm like that

Especially when I'm working

What happens when it doesn't go according to your plans?

Then I get super stressed

I'm now trying not to get too caught up in my plans

What about things like a travel itinerary?

Oh, I don't really like traveling

['I' as in Introvert...]

I'm like that too

[Relatable]

I'm too lazy!!!

[Their own world again]

[Very relatable] But once you're there you enjoy it right?

And when I go on vacation with someone,

[Follows along] I try to just

- Follow along? - Yeah

I don't complain at all

And I join in on their plans and enjoy it

But I never plan a trip first

- Se Chan, what about you? - Do you like to travel?

[Travel♥] I love to travel

When I have nothing to do,

And there's a plane ticket available,

[A nearby country] I go to Japan or something like that

Right away

- Wow... - I'm a 'P'?

[Spontaneous] Yeah, spontaneously

There's nothing to do, what should I do?

If I stay home, I'll just be lying down, watching YouTube

So I think it's better to go out even if I'm alone

[Fascinated] Then are you always happy? On your trip?

No, from time to time,

[Reality check] I'm like, what am I doing?

- There are moments like that - Why am I here?

At first, I'm like "Yay!"

And after arriving and eating,

I'm like, what do I do now...?

And I call people in Korean, "What's up?"

And just brag, "I'm in Japan"

It's a type of life that I envy

Because... I wish I had more interests in my life

Doing things spontaneously?

- Yeah - You should try it

Then you're able to enjoy more things in life

How you're sitting and all, I feel like only you two are taking

- Oh, yeah, neutrally - Come a little this way

Put it in neutral

Her body is shifting a lot

Were you a little lonely?

[Turning towards Se Chan] IU was turning more and more to that side...

- No, it's so interesting...! - Later on, it's just like

[mini Pinggyego]

No, your body keeps turning

Neutrally, please

[Neutral Mode ON] Because I'm in the middle

- I'll try to stay here - You're the MC today

You kept turning away

You're like that too?

[Not facing the camera] You're facing the side

Sorry

Se Chan too, as he described it,

Is good at spending time alone well

I don't want to waste time

You also don't like traveling

I don't really...

I have a good time once I'm there

[Planning the trip] But as I mentioned before, the process

- Packing! - Packing! Yes

Unpacking

I'm really horrible at packing

- Oh really? - Yeah

What is there to be bad at? It's just packing, no?

It's because you're good at it

I open up my luggage

[Stares... stares...]

I spend more time doing this

[Fascinated] Than actually packing

I'm concerned about this when packing

How many underwears to bring

- Right - No, what, no

It's not like you're gonna change them 3 times a day

No but! You don't know what's gonna happen

Yeah, exactly

You might end up sweating a lot

Yeah

- Or end up swimming - Exactly!

[Taking these into consideration] Unexpected situation

And the numbers keep increasing

Right, but

For example, I have to pack 7 days' worth

- Huh...! - But I packed 10

But I don't have that much underwear

[Sudden disclosure] You don't have 10 underwear at home?

I'll buy you some!

I'll buy you the Calvin Klein ones that are 3 for 23,000 won!

Listen!

[Friendly] The ones on sale, I'll buy you some at the outlet

Listen to me!

For 7 days, you need around 10

You are really frugal

Doesn't everyone have at least 10?

[Shocking disclosure]

Are we starting a battle?

- At least 10! - If I take them all out, I have more

But there are some I like

I have ones that I don't normally like

The ones you like are less than 10?

Right, right

- Increase them! - There's 8

Oh, eight

[TMI] Exactly 8

[Only wears a few] I can relate to that too

- You know? - Yeah

For example, I pack 10 underwear for a 7 days trip

But if I didn't end up needing the extra 3,

If there's none

Then I don't feel that happy hahaha

You don't...?

[Grows apart again after the buffet incident] I can relate

- To IU - Now, everyone

Then before going back to Korea,

How about you just try to wear them all?

[Nope] No, I don't like that

You have to get enough wear out of them?

Isn't IU's main point this?

'I knew I shouldn't have brought it'

[Exactly that] Right

- 'I over-packed...' - Right

'I put in all this work for no reason'

That's it, right

[Don't like this feeling] So this is...

This is the concern

Then do you not like that?

You bring 7 on a 7 days trip

[Shortage of underwear] And you end up running out of underwear

You have to fill it in

What do you think about hand-washing the first one you wore?

Ah...

That's a bit hahaha

[Unpleasant proposal] I could do that but...

Of course, I'll have to but...

'I knew it... I should've brought more'

[Resenting myself for not bringing more] Yeah, right

Just don't go!

[Never asking again] You two don't go

[I'm sorry, just stay home...] Just stay home, read

And lie down

Because I'm concerned about little stuff like this

- Packing is stressful - Stress

I think I packed thoroughly, but

- I forgot something! - Oh right!

[Always forgetting something] And you get fixated on that

'Of course'

[Blaming] That's what happens

'I expected this from you'

[Keep hating myself] I'm never going again

'What am I gonna do with you'

[Upset on vacation]

So extreme

[Extreme example] What am I gonna do with you?

It's because everyone has a different style

Are you the type to pack a lot of luggage?

I just take it as it is

I can go anywhere as long as I have my toothbrush and toothpaste

[Can go anywhere with it!]

You must really like to brush your teeth

[Fascinated by his love of brushing teeth]

I saw the other episode

[Serious about brushing teeth] And you brush your teeth on set

Do you brush your teeth for a long time?

[A muggle's innocent question]

I do it for a long time

And on days when I have to go in fast, I hurry up

[Always brushing] Oh, you have to do it quickly

I brush my teeth hard and

You must really like to brush your teeth haha

It's my first time hearing that

[First time] Do you like to brush your teeth?

Yes, I like to brush my teeth

Have you been on any trips lately?

Most recently,

[GUCCI 2024 F/W Men's Fashion Show] I went to Italy

And I had a free day

So I spent that day like a vacation

What did you do?

Um... I was just in my room

[Traveling alone in a hotel room] In your hotel room?

You need to put your hand in the 'The Mouth of Truth'

For example, if I'm abroad and have a spare time,

I just spend my time in the room alone

- That's your idea of resting - It's really nice

I try out different pillows

[Analyzing hotel rooms] Spending my time like that

Is more nice

I spend most of my time in the hotel

[Most of them rent nice hotels] But the hotel is so nice

It's a pity to only use it as a place to change and shower

- Yeah - It's a pity

I watch a lot of shows when I'm abroad

[Even monitoring contents from abroad] Oh you're monitoring?

Like what kind of shows there are

Have you never done traveling variety shows?

I've never done a traveling show

But on traveling shows

The people mostly spend their time in hotels

I think they'd just be talking like this, in different countries

For example, if you two go on a trip together

If very different types of people go on a vacation

I can make him have a great time

[Wants to see them getting along together] And adjusting to each other's style

- So like that - I think it'll be fun

She's a PD today

Yeah

I think it'll be fun

Would you go on a traveling show...?

Ahhhh it's okay

[Rejects after proposing an idea]

- You recommended it to others! - She waved her hand so fast

[Embarrassed]

I like watching traveling shows

There's a lot of cool and interesting things to see there

And I like that too

But going there with a camera is not a vacation

[Cannot fully enjoy the trip] It's work

You have to go thinking it's work

The minute the microphone goes on

[Work Mode] And the belt pack comes on?

It's all work

[Even if they say to rest] They say, just take a rest today

But the second the cameras are on

I feel like I shouldn't be just lying down

Crew) Just be comfortable

[Uncomfortable / Crew]

Their faces aren't happy

[Anxious] Why isn't he doing anything?

And then the writer comes over and they start discussing

[Serious meeting]

And they say that they don't have anything

[Worried] Don't have anything

And I look around uneasy

And get up saying "Should I do something?"

[Crew / Happy]

They start to follow you, and you start talking to yourself

Now, should I take a look at what's in the fridge?

Should I cook something?

"Wait, should I try calling IU?"

[Nice] It's the best

[Transparent] After telling you to rest comfortably

Sometimes I want to film our crew

[Wants to show the drastic changes] How they change their expressions is so funny

Their faces when it's going according to their plan

- And when something's gone wrong - Oh, the serious faces

I want to film that and show everyone

The urgency!

[Acting like it's okay] It's okay

And I see the assistant director going like this

[Serious]

[Crew]

They say "It's okay, there's no problem"

And go, "Oh... it's not organized properly?"

[Common phrase they use] Not organized properly

You didn't visit the place in advance?

[Dying of laughter from that phrase]

[Immersed] What's going on?

[Crew / Crew] [Acting like everything's okay]

It's ready

This always happens at least once when we're shooting abroad

[So many unexpected situations] They're always saying that it's not organized

The world we live in

[It can always happen when working] That's right

[Concert tickets sold out] As soon as the tickets were released

- That's incredible - Thank you

If you have time, please come

Huh?

[Lost for words] Wait... Can we really go?

- Of course - Really?

- Then I'll go with Se Chan! - We'll go, when is it?

2, 3, 9, 10 of March!

March 2, 3, 9, 10?

[Checking the calendar] Mark the date

[Struggling to take the phone out] March 2, 3, 9, 10?

I'll go with Se Chan

[Got the phone] I'll be waving the glow stick

[Please] 2, 3, 9, 10

Hyung! I can go!

[4/31 Chance] Hyung!

- You can? - Yeah

Then I can too!

[Schedule mate Jae Seok & Se Chan]

- (Welcome) Come, come - Then let's go, Se Chan

- We can really go, right? - Of course x2

Pick me up at my house

Yeah, I'll pick you up

[Going together] Yeah pick me up

- What are you going to wear? - Ugh! Then..

I think I should dress casually

- Because if I dress too fancy, - I'm

I'm going to wear a suit

[Planning to go all out] Hyung! No! You can't!

- No - All dressy

Why are you wearing your suit if you're not the star of the show

No, haha IU

- It's IU's concert - Really?

[Suit up] I should clean up neat

[Approves] That sounds good

- It's good, right? - Yeah

I feel like I'm going to be embarrassed with you wearing the suit

You're going to wear a suit to IU's concert?

If you do wear a suit,

I'll make sure to put a spot-light on you when you enter

[Promise] Really? Okay, sounds good

[Not good]

- That's so embarrassing hahaha - Hahahaha

Should we match? And wear a suit together?

[Suit!] Let's wear a suit!

That's our dress code?

- That's amazing - Like an agent!

[Opening event] Going to IU's concert like an agent

- Okay, and we'll pick a color - Yeah, let's pick a color

[Anticipating] Okay

If you see us at the concert,

- Just pass it by - Please do so

[Agents] (Please) Act like you don't know us

Sounds good

I'm currently preparing for the concert so I think it'll be fun

[Back to topic] Because you did

So well, I think a lot of people

Are looking forward to your concerts

And I think to achieve that

I'm sure you put in an insane effort

- I try my hardest - Exactly

I should try my best

Listening to you,

It might sound like you just sit for 6 to 7 hours

And browse through YouTube and stuff

- But no - No, it's not all

This is how I felt listening to her

[When she's sitting at the table] Usually

When she doesn't do anything

[Focusing on 'rest' itself] It's for her own relaxation

Staying still

She uses up so much energy

When she's working

I think it does have something to do with energy

But I'm like that too, at home,

I usually spend my time sitting down, not doing anything

You just rest at home?

It'd be hard to define this as 'rest'

[Agrees]

Recharge?

Recharge?

- Discharge? - For example,

When we use our phones a lot

[Phones get heated too] It can get heated

[Ex) Long calls, navigation, camera] When that happens,

We charge our phones with a charger and leave it there for a while

It's like that for me

That's what I feel like when I'm at home

- So that's why... you're unique... - Why?

You work busily

But listening to you two,

It's as if you're pouring all your energy into work

But I feel like I still have some energy left...!

So it feels a little...

- No - I guess I should use more energy

- I should try harder - The energy

(That's not it) It's because you have lots of energy

[Calm] Oh maybe

You work, and travel, and cook

[Lots of energy] That's so cool

But this is what I don't like

Doing nothing at home for 6 hours

You say you read books at home

I can't read at home

[Doesn't like the quietness] I don't like it at all

I always have to hear the TV noises at home

[Se Chan at home] You leave it on

I always just leave it on

I keep thinking about what I should do with my free time

But I don't want to meet anyone

[People like Se Chan are pretty common] I don't want to see anyone

I try to do it on my own

So I tried reading once

[0.5 seconds] But it wasn't for me

So I don't read anymore

That's why I spend most of my time outside

You go outside alone?

Yes! Alone

- That's unique - Yeah, Se Chan

Likes to go out alone

There's nothing to do at home

So... let's just go to a department store

- Ohh - And look around!

- What? - And I just go

My close friend, Yoo In na

[Same as Se Chan] Is exactly like this

She always has to go out, but alone!

She walks around alone

It's nice, you don't have to care for other people's opinions

There are a lot of people who shop alone

[Fascinated] I love it

Because if you're with someone, even if you want to look around a bit more

"Okay, let's go"

[Bound to happen] There are times like this

There's a lot of things that make you uncomfortable when you're shopping with others

The person you're with says that they're not gonna buy it

And tells me to look around

[So are you gonna buy it or not] But keeps looking at me

It's annoying... because sometimes I don't want to buy anything either

So I just say, let's go

[Even if the person says they're okay,] You have to try it on

[It's uneasy] And look at this and that

Is there anything you bought recently?

Something I bought? No, oh something I bought?

[Error]

I bought a key ring

Key-ring?

[Trendy] It's popular nowadays

Hanging something on your bag

I wanted to try it so I bought one

Have you bought anything recently?

[Scratches] Something I bought recently...

..I don't think there's any?

You don't shop often?

Not really

Well.. sometimes, In-sho!

- In-sho? Internet shopping? - Internet shopping

You shortened that?

You shortened that?

Internet shopping is long

[5 syllables?] Internet shopping

That's long? Internet shopping?

- It's hard to pronounce - In-sho

In-sho? In-sho!

When I shop online, I buy everything I need all at once

- And normally, I don't really buy much - Hmmm

Yeah, I shop online a lot too

Two days ago, I...

I got a little scratch when I was filming

I buy a lot of medical supplies to leave at home

But I ran out

[Ordering band-aids online] My wife always tells me to

Just order a few

But I always buy

- A lot! - Right!

[A lot at once] So that I don't fall short

I hate it when it runs out!

I'm like that too haha

[You're too lazy to buy them again too?]

- One's enough but... - I know what you mean

Two... is not okay either!

I feel relieved after buying at least three

That's how I normally shop

But there was a problem

I ordered three,

And three included 10 packs...!

[Meant to buy 3 packs]

[But 30 packs arrived] 30 of them came

My wife told me that it'd be okay for me to roll down the stairs now

Hyung! The same thing happened to me with floss

I ordered 10000 by accident

One pack of floss contained 100

[Danger of bundle sales] But I pressed the wrong button and got 10000

I have them piled up at home

- This much - Surely not 10000 though

Ask my brother

- Surely not 10000 though - Really, ask my brother

This much came

[Can't refund my mistake] I couldn't return it either

So I have a lifetime supply of floss

[Doesn't have to worry about running out] You have 10000 floss?

This much came

Because he loves to brush his teeth

[Destiny]

[Fascinated] You must really like brushing your teeth

Just become a toothpaste yourself

[Toothpaste Yang / 37 years old]

I sometimes give them out

You have to look at your order carefully

It happened even when I looked at it carefully

There's a lot of people who make the same mistake

Yeah

It came in bulk

I'm like that too...

Things like.. ethanol

Why ethanol? For what?

[All-purpose item] For disinfecting and sanitizing etc.

Right

I have as much as a pharmacy

[Quiet but strong]

- Oh you have them in boxes - Hahaha

If you need any, I can give some out

[Check carefully!] Even if I looked carefully before buying it

[Unexpected] IU's also like that too

I buy a lot at once

But 10000 floss is...

[Another level] 10000 floss is a bit...

Se Hyung was like, "what are you doing"

"What are gonna use these for?"

[Answer: For brushing teeth] And I just told him that I'm going to use them

It's the ones that look like this

[Multi-use / Disposable]

[Not this, but this] The one-time use

The one you use right away

Not this

Then you'll be going through them quickly?

- Me??? - Ahahaha

I have the same number of teeth as others (???)

- No because you brush your teeth a lot - It's not like I need to use 20 of them

- During the day - 20 at a time...!

IU is teasing you hard

She keeps

- Hahaha - Spilling a little at a time

Because he brushes his teeth a lot

- You're chair's crooked again - Oh is it?

[Adjusting] Let's take some time to adjust

If you come on the show again...

We'll have to nail it onto the ground

Ararararr

- Arararar - Drrr! Drrrrr!

- It keeps turning? - Arararr

[Pinggyego]

[17 years since debut] What's it like for you?

[Does IU still get nervous?] How do you feel when you're doing concerts?

I think it makes me more nervous

I wasn't nervous about my debut stage when I was young

Wow... how come?

It was just like that

I remember not being nervous at all

[15 years old at the time] It might be because I was so young

Sometimes, the less you know, the less you're scared

Maybe that's why

But from a certain point, I started to get more and more nervous

- More? - Yes

(Ex) A month before it starts...

When there's a count-down

You get nervous

- I have dreams - What kind of dreams?

[D-30, Going on stage unprepared] Going on stage like this

- When you need more preparation - When I still have a month left

More time to prepare,

But in my dream, everyone else is ready but me

Everyone's moving fast

- But only you're not ready? - Yes! Only me!

[Bewildered] Isn't there a month left?

One month of band practice is left

But I go up on the stage

Not knowing what to do, where to go

I keep dreaming about that every time I have concerts

It's not easy

I think a lot of singers also worry about this

Taking care of your throat is difficult at times, because we're all just human

There are things you can't control

[But every time] People anticipate high notes

[They're expecting the perfect show] So you have to give them high notes

I guess singers could feel burdened by this

Of course, especially the part in 'Good Day'

Everyone would just listen and

[Sparkly eyes] Whenever that part comes up, they'd go

- Is she gonna do it? Now? - It's coming

[Impossible not to be nervous] That's the reaction I get

When I feel everyone focusing on a specific moment

I suddenly get nervous

Because they like that

Yeah, because that's the climax

Of course, they'd anticipate it the most

But there are times when it makes me nervous

I think everyone definitely has

Concerns or is nervous about their

- Field of work - Of course

I confuse the lyrics because I'm nervous too

- I'm so familiar with the song - Familiar

It's already imprinted on me but sometimes,

- Just! - Because you're nervous

Because it's all happening live

I always live in front of an audience

Do you feel that way too?

When you can do it

But when something disturbs me within myself

You're going to mess up, you're going to forget

I'm not the only one, right?

- Talking to yourself??? - In my head!

[Cute explaining] In my head, at that moment

- I keep doing it to myself - Interrupting yourself?

Clearly interrupting me with words

You're gonna mess up

That doesn't happen to you?

I think I know what you mean

Sometimes, I have to memorize things to say

And even though I practiced, I get it wrong

When you're practicing and thinks something is weird,

- Ends up weird - Most of the time

[Uneasy premonition] It's always like that

Do you still get nervous?

I have thoughts like this,

Ah, today's show has to be funny too

[Always a little nervous] I get nervous about stuff like that

- Everybody has those moments - Do you get nervous?

I get nervous a lot

- Really??? - Yeah

[As Jae Seok said] Before shooting,

'Am I gonna do well?'

- (Agrees) Yeah - That kind of nervous feeling

I feel like that before shooting

I feel like you won't get nervous easily

- No, no, no - No, no, no

I think everyone's like this

People get nervous because they want to do well

Right, right

If people didn't feel the need to do well, they wouldn't...

[-Miss]

[-Miss]

Should I pull the table for you?

[Adjusting the table]

It's so good

Should I try some?

I've never had banana-covered chocolate

You'll be shocked

[Is that so?] Let's see...

Hmm!

[Relieved]

Wow, it's so delicious

Why haven't I tried this before?

Hahaha

You need to put fire below this, right?

After melting the chocolate

[Giving up fast] And do that and

Plate everything

I can't, I can't

Too much work

Yeah, we only eat like this when others prepare it for you

To be honest! I thought of eating potatoes

If Se Chan peels one for me

[Understanding right away]

Okay! I'm not gonna give you one!

Not gonna give me one haha

[Seeing this reminded me of something]

I found out recently myself

That I'm... high-maintenance

I think I'm like that

I always thought of myself as easy-going

[Eye-contact] That's what I always...

[Found the culprit] You're easygoing?

[High-maintenance right now too] Everyone's making a big fuss right now

- Because he said he's easy-going - I.. misunderstood myself like that

But I realized that everyone around me must've had a hard time

I reflected on myself

I thought that I was easygoing too

But I guess it might not be true for me either?

[Another similarity] You two are the same

- Yeah, think about it carefully - That might be true

[Enlightment] Maybe it could just be my opinion

[Cannot multi-task] Yeah.. I'm like that...

[- Miss]

Yeah, you're high-maintenance

[Certified]

Something always happens because of me

[Witness of 6-7 years] Cool thing about Jae Seok is

I've known him for 6 to 7 years

Every time he eats, he always spills something

- He spills stuff! - He does!

For real! It's fascinating!

[Happened a lot on Pinggyego] Every time, he goes, "Oh I spilled it"

[Watermelon juice, Nuts, Coffee] He says that a lot when eating

That's because you need to take time

But I always rush!

[Mistakes happen from impatience] A little impatient?

I am impatient

So I often fall or bang myself

That's why my shins are always bruised

I'm like that too

Where do you band your shin?

[Here] Like here

[Corners] Or my bed frame corners

Ridiculous places

Then if you banged yourself on the bed,

What kind of reaction do you get?

And I resent myself for it

Ah...

You dummy!

You couldn't avoid that!

Banging yourself again?

What am I going to do with you!

That's good, that's better

[Harmony] What am I going to do with you!

[When someone else is home] If my wife or children are at home

They'd at least go, what's wrong!

But when I'm alone,

That's right

[It's annoying and it hurts] When it hurts

[Relatable] I get so annoyed

- I was like that yesterday too - Why?

I was holding my phone and dropped it

I could've just left it drop

- You were trying to catch it? - Not that

I always do this with my foot out of habit

[Phone corners] I hit my foot exactly there

You idiot...!

I should've just left it drop

Why did I use my foot

But when I saw that my phone screen didn't crack,

[Relieved] I was thankful that I didn't need to repair it

Stuff like that

[Sudden] I feel like here

Is the perfect place to chat

It's perfect

It's quiet and there's enough space

It's not too far

You could talk for 3 days here

- It's possible - For real!

Sleep and wake up again to talk

But you film Pinggyeogo in various locations,

Like... there's a really small space

Like a refreshment room?

[Me?] It's here

- It's here? - Look, it's here

[Going right away] I'll take a look and come back

[Under the nose the whole time] It was here

Open it

Oh, here!

[I saw this on mini Pinggyego]

- Should we do round 2 there? - We film there too

[Camera's point of view] And we get the shot of this here

- This is what you see - Where they work

- It's all here - Yeah, it's here

Wow, the use of space is really good

It's great

- It's greatly used - Yeah

It's really great

There's no place like this

It's really nice

Wow, the potatoes are so good

It smells amazing

This place is like a good restaurant...

[Trying the potato]

- Who's preparing all the food? - Hmm!

[How is it?]

- Who's preparing haha - The potatoes are good

It's good!

Where did you get this? Did you buy it?

[We just bought potatoes and microwaved it] You just microwaved it?

With store-bought potatoes?

[Interested] How long did you put it in the microwave for?

It's so good

In the past, there wasn't much to snack on

So people steamed potatoes and sweet potatoes often right?

Yeah, we did

Do you like potatoes more or sweet potatoes?

Sweet potatoes

Me too

Potatoes

Why

..Potatoes are much better

So much more you can make with it

For me, it's because potatoes are more sweet (?)

Huh?

Not potatoes, sweet potatoes

Hahaha

Huh?

What are you talking about, you said you like sweet potatoes more

[Couldn't hide it]

What's he saying?

Potatoes are sweeter?

[Perfect snack for winter] But the potatoes are nicely steamed

It's really good

How is it done so perfectly?

[Nom, nom] It's so good

If you sprinkle a bit of salt here, it'd be perfect

- It's already seasoned - I think they already seasoned it?

I think they added butter

[Added salted butter] Oh salted butter

No wonder it's so savory and good

This is my meal

This is it for you?

Yeah, lunch...

- What? - I'll be full after this

I had breakfast and then this

[Oh] Oh, right

Are you gonna have lunch after this?

I'm going to go to sleep after this

[Replenishing energy]

You're making us feel so sorry

Hahahaha

Something that I thought just now

Is that it's really nice to film this sleepy

[Benefits of morning conversations] It's more

- It's more relaxing - Yeah, more relaxing

- And I can speak comfortably! - That's it

It doesn't feel like I'm here to shoot

[Satisfied] That's what I'm talking about

Right, it just feels like we're having a conversation

[To summarize...] So you'll go home after this

And sleep and wake up at around 1

Yeah! I'll wake up

And you can go to sleep late too then

- Yeah, I'll then have dinner - Have dinner

And sit at the table for a while and go to sleep

[Applauding] [Busy day]

In your point of view,

What kind of person do you see yourself as?

I'm...

I actually don't know

- Right...! - Now that I'm in my 30s

- It changes - It...

I think my definition of myself that I had set in the past changes

A lot of people say that they don't know themselves very well

But I don't know myself either...

You're like that too?

Yeah, I don't really know myself well

[Because 'I' keep changing too...] I was like this in the past

- But I'm not like that anymore - Right

What kind of person do you think of yourself as?

What kind of person am I?

I'm just ordinary...

And just... someone who lives a normal life

Nothing much

Why did you get so nervous?

[Are you here for a job interview...?]

Is she interrogating you or something?

He's sinking into his seat haha

It's not like she's interrogating you

I'm just ordinary...

It was the most difficult question I got asked recently

[That's not how she said it] (Answer me!) What kind of person are you!

I'm... just... an ordinary... person...

Why are you so nervous

[Answer that captivated the interviewer] I don't think I've ever

Thought about it

... what kind of person am I?

I'm ordinary was so ahahhah

We answered because we were asked this question

Right

But normally, we don't usually ask ourselves

What kind of person we think we are

I should think about it at home

I think.. I have a lot of greed for work

[To think of it]

I think I have a certain desire for achievement that can only be fulfilled through work

[Relatable] Yeah

Can only be fulfilled through work...

Do you like to work a lot?

I'm not really good at resting

- Like you, I also like working - Right

- And resting in between for one or two days! - That's nice! Yeah!

I don't think that resting without any promises do not suit me at all

I think work is

What makes me live a healthier life

Because there are standards I have to reach,

I take care of myself

And that makes me healthier

[Work is a big part of IU's life]

I don't know how to describe myself without work

- Do you get exhausted? - Of course, I do

When there are so many things I have planned but I have no time

And I want to achieve them no matter what!

But when I'm not capable of doing so, it's exhausting

When you plan something

Of course, there's nothing better than

Going through with your plan and satisfying the audience

But!

In order to do this...

It requires a lot of time and effort

And even if you put in the time and effort,

The results might not be the same as before

Yeah, right, it's not certain

Being responsible for all of that

And pushing yourself to achieve such results

Is actually

Harder than it seems

That's why IU is so incredible

She's really incredible

You debuted in 2008, how long has it been working in this industry?

16 years...

[Time flies...]

You've been working for 16 years?

Looking at the dramas or movies you've been in

Or songs that you've released

And everything else you've done over the years

Is proof of your hard work

And I can see how you worked hard to be better

- Don't you think so? - (Shy) Thank you...

Did your recent album take you long to produce?

Yeah, it took a long time

I started over a lot

I was gonna do this, but ended up changing directions

And the songs that I was going to put in were

- Again? - Got rid of them?

I took them all out!

And I just put in songs that I cherish

And overall... I'm very happy with the results!

[Love wins all MV] And V and IU

[Not IU and V] In the music video

[Jihye and Taejoon...] It's so sad

Thank you

V is serving in the military right now...

But I miss him!

I miss Taehyung

- Oh Taehyung? - Oh Taehyung, I...

I was the MC for his fan meeting too

- Oh really?! - Yeah

I became the person who specializes in fan meetings

[This must be fate]

What happened?

Oh, you do a lot of fan meetings

I don't do a lot

[Not a lot, but among them] Not a lot but

[Jihye and Taejoon...] It just so happens to be like that

Ah.. the... everyone

He's doing his military services

[To. Taehyung and all soldiers] Thanks to you we're able to

[Video message] Spend our days like this

We can sleep peacefully at night

Fighting!!!!

Thank you

Were you a trainee for a long time or no?

Not for long

I did it for 10 months

- Oh? It was short? - Not that long

I was a trainee but...

There was a girl group that the company was planning on debuting

But that wasn't going according to their plans

And because of something related to the distributor,

One team from the company had to debut

So I...!

I wasn't prepared at all

But I ended up debuting right away

Because I was the youngest

[15 years old, Lee Jieun] I was 15 at the time

And so they thought that I would have lots of opportunities

- So... - Oh...

- Even if I don't succeed - Because you can try again?

Yeah, because I'll be able to get another opportunity

We're in a hurry so let's debut her

... and that's how I ended up debuting

Then were you also planning on being in a girl group?

That's what I thought

But you came out as a solo artist

- Yeah, I didn't think I'd be a solo artist - But honestly with IU...

Even if she's in a group or not

She'll be the center

She'll be the popular member

[LOL] Of course

No how...

How do you know those words?

[K-POP lover]

Words like that haha

- IU is a popular member! - Wow

[New theory] It's because his mouth is outwards

People like this say that a lot

[Pinggyego!]

Something I heard was that...

You're going to play us...

Her new song?

[Only 'Love wins all' was released then]

- Really? - I was so surprised... really?

- I can play it for you - Really?

[Rare occasion] Play it for us

Is it okay?

It's okay

But what kind of song do you want to listen to?

[Ready to play all] There's five

There are 2 title songs

[Title 1] It's upbeat!

Upbeat

[Upbeat song]

And there's a lot of high notes

[Immediate reaction] That sounds good

What's the next one?

The other title song is...

[Title 2] Chill...!

Play us that

The high notes

[Rhythm lover] [Fixed preference]

This song is called 'Shopper'

Sofa~!

Shopper, person who shops

[Person who shops = Shopper] Shopper, I thought you said sofa

[Imagining] Because you said you're always at home sitting

Cause I'm always sitting at the table

You! Don't come to the concert!

- You... - I'm going

[This song has not been released yet so we'll turn off the audio...]

[And play the highlight]

[Upbeat]

Trendy voice

[Humming]

How... how do you know?

[Full version available for streaming on February 20th]

Not a scam

The song's so nice!

The song is

I think it's nicer because IU sings it

It's tasty, the song

[Right] It's tasty! You sing it tastefully

That's my favorite expression

How can you sing so tastefully!

Thank you!

[More please] Play the next one for us too

[Sure] Should I play the other one?

This one's a bit... hip-hop

Wow, I like!

I don't know if it'll be okay for us to wear suits

[Maybe it'll be better...?] In fact, it's

- Nicer? - Yes

[Hahaha] Let's wear suits then

Wearing suits hahaha

[Will it be alright?]

IU

IU! IU! IU!

This song is called 'Holssi'

It's a story about how she's decided to live as a seed rather than a flower

Even if she doesn't necessarily bloom,

- Just living as she is! - As a seed

But also!

She has ambitions!

Like if she were to bloom...

She's going to bloom up in the sky rather than on the ground

It contains a fun message like that

[February 16th Music Video Pre-Release, 'Holssi']

This song is fun

Oh, the beginning

[Listening carefully]

The place for me to lie down is probably much higher

Wow, this

No, I don't want to set my roots on a normal ground

I'm going to bloom in the sky Hmm, What a tiny leader

Just barely, I

This...

- This? - It's this?

[Nodding]

It's this?

[Hook]

- Woah - Ahhhhh!

Woah!

[Explosion]

- This! - Oh

[Chiiiiiilllsssss]

This is the right reaction!

I thought it was 'Show Me The Money'

[Worthy of 100 gold necklaces]

Amazing, I really like that part

I think this one's it!

[TOP100] This

- This song is my favorite too - Right?

[Hip]

Haha so funny

I just imagined this song playing at the concert while I'm wearing suits

[A bit shy]

[Please understand when you see this duo at the concert wearing suits]

With a tie

[Electrifying]

But I think...

You have a young taste

- Us? Hahaha - Yeah... hahaha

This song is actually

Is it hard to get?

It's a song that people nowadays would get

- Of course, we get it - But how you get the main point

[Proud]

Perfect point

And IU gets it when we want it too

That's the killing part

But you pointed that part out exactly

The author's hidden intentions

I feel at ease

- Really? - Thank you

[Touched] Really

Even during the Jayu-ro Song Festival,

['Infinite Challenge', Jayu-ro Song Festival] Leon with Myung Soo

[IU's duet with Myung Soo 'Leon'] That song was nice

To be honest...

I wanted to take Myung Soo off the stage

Tikita, along with the rhythm, spin guitar

How do you know that?

It's because he kept getting it wrong

I was like he can't do this?

[Infinite Challenge Legend Park Myung Soo trapped in Tikita hell]

I'm saying it now

I saw the rehearsal and all, but I really wanted to drag him off the stage

[Too late] Get out! Don't sing like that!

Why are you ruining IU's song!

[Sobbing]

Because he kept getting that part wrong,

The entire nation memorized it

[Agreeing] Everyone sang it with you

I'm one of those people

The song wasn't even out yet

- And everyone knew the lyrics... - Everyone there

[Singing] Tikita, along with the rhythm, spin

Everyone except for Myung Soo is good at it

Right, it's hard for everyone to know the rap lyrics

But it became a song for everybody

Myung Soo played a big role

[Re-evaluating] It was all thanks to him

- Amazing - He made a catch-phrase

So this is what I thought

(Respect) Because he's so good at variety shows,

'Was this his big picture?'

Yeah(?)

- ...Is it true? Hahaha - He was the nation's vocal instructor

[Missing him] If I don't see him for a while,

I miss him

- Should we try calling? - Myung Soo?

- Should we? - Yeah

Will he be more surprised if IU calls him or you?

[Cheeky] I'll call him first and then give the phone to IU

[Excited]

Who are you

[Calling]

[Picked up]

- Why are you calling me so early... - It's me

[Holding back laughter] Why are you calling me so early

What are you doing?

I'm just lying down

Why are you laughing?

You're laughing?

Tikita, tikita

[Catching on] There's someone next to you, right?

[3rd try] Tikita!

Along with the rhythm, spin...

[He finally responds] It's automatic

What are you doing at this hour?

- Hyung - What

IU's here

What's IU?

IU

Where is it?

We're shooting Pinggyego

IU lied to me...

[Explaining] Yesterday, I thought of

The promise I made with you!

I was reminded of that yesterday

So I explained everything here

And apologized here and all

You and I could now become enemies

- Liar hahaha - Enemies

I won't compliment you on shows

I'll visit you sometime soon

I won't compliment you on shows now

[Cracking up]

- That's blackmail? - Blackmail

(Listen up!) I won't compliment you on shows now

He won't badmouth

But you're not going to badmouth IU, and just not give her compliments

No, it's changed now

- How? - Badmouthing?

I'm going to badmouth

Emphasize IU's competitors more

Who! Who's her competitor?

[Bitter] I'll have to look it up...

He's not prepared

Se Chan is also here with us right now

You're the same

[Shocked] Why

[Polite] It's been a long time

This is Se Chan

Oh, Se Chan, have you been well?

[Nice] Yes, how's your health?

[For a second] How would you know that?

[Attacking] You didn't look great on the show

Enough of you, get IU on the phone

[Getting IU] Yes...

I really loved you and have always complimented you

But now you're my enemy

[Sad declaration of war]

I'll make it up to you

IU is saying

[Make up] That she'll visit you soon

Okay, well...

[Rage] I'm going out because I'm furious

Where's he going?

Where are you going?

I'm gonna go up Namsan

That's right in front of your house

I'm gonna go to the top and shout

Shout what?

[Badmouthing] That IU's a liar

That's cute

[I love you IU] IU is a liar!

All you're gonna say is IU's a liar

He's nice

- Okay - He's really nice

I'm gonna shout out that IU's a liar at Palgakjeong

So tell her to be prepared

Okay, I'll call you later

No, don't call me!

I'm going to!

Hang up!

- Okay - Take care

Yeah

He's nice, he responds to everything

Listen to what he'll be shouting at Namsan

[I love you IU] IU is a liar!

Myung Soo...

Don't worry

He's not someone to get sulky

Not at all

He's the type to

Call later and say

- That was okay? IU was okay? - That's what he's like

[Pinggyego!]

Talking with IU today

- Oh, already? - Time went by so fast

Really? Already?

- Wow, time flies - What a pity

Will you be doing more shows?

Not really since I'm starting my concert soon

[2024 IU World Tour Concert 'H.E.R'] Are you leaving straight away?

- Yes - Oh really?

I'll be touring for a while

Oh touring

And

[As always, gift for a first-comer] Something we prepared for IU

Wow, this!

This is a very... famous chocolate

[Chocolates] Yeah

[Chocolates] You recognize it

Thank you

How did you pick it out...?

They have great taste...

- If you look at it here... - There's something written!

IU and Pinggyego's similarities

[= Our hopes] Once you're in, you lose track of time

[Rooting for IU's Mini Album & Concert] You smile heartily while looking at it

- We wish you a big success! - Thank you

Jaw Seok) It's already a success

Se Chan) Of course, it's so great

IU) Thank you for your hard work

Jae Seok) Time just flew by

Se Chan) Really IU) It's so comfortable here...

I think the people that come on the show won't feel burdened

Right?

- I'll be going now - Travel safe

- Yes - Travel safe

Thank you

- Goodbye - I'll see you in March

- Yes, I'll give you a call - Okay

Thank you
