[23-second preview]
Try saying "Don't rest!"

Don't rest!

Don't lie!

Excuse me, lady.

May I have the menu, please?

In the bulgogi...

Do you really have to talk like that, all greasy?

Who is the sinner?

Hello.

Audio.

[Gyewon, please pay attention!]

[Today, we have alumni from
Seoul University of the Arts here!]

[We’re going to chat and have fun,
just like the old times on campus!]

[Pinggyego!]

[Jae Seok found the list of alumni from
Seoul University of the Arts]

[Entertainment Broadcasting 1991 Jeon Doyeon]
Doyeon and I were in the same year.

[Entertainment Broadcasting 1993 Shin Ha Kyun]
Ha Kyun.

[Entertainment Broadcasting 1995 Cha Taehyun]
So Taehyun was in the class of 1995.

We attended the same school
but it doesn't feel like it.

[Me?]

How is he like?

Taehyun?

[He's beyond alumni]
We are alumni,

[He's stronger than that]
but it doesn't feel like it.

[Entertainment Broadcasting 1996 Jung Sang Hoon]
I saw Sang Hoon at school.

[Entertainment Broadcasting 1997 Han Sang-jin]
Sang-jin majored in Entertainment Broadcasting?

[Shocked]
Han Sang-jin is my junior?

[Shocked again]
Jang Yoon-ju majored in film?

[It feels different when you see it as a list]
I didn't know that.

[Theater Department 1990 Hwang Jung Min]
Jung Min is in the class of 1990.

[Theater Department 1990 Ryu Seungryong]
Seungryong, yes.

[Theater Department 1993 Chung Sung Hwa]
Sung Hwa is in the class of 1990, I see.

[Today's guests are alumni as well as]
So we're going to have a chat with our alumni.

[The main characters of the musical "Mrs. Doubtfire"]
Those

with the heart icon next to their names
are the ones joining us today.

[Jung Min's nickname from Punghyang High]
To be honest, Mr. Hornet!

He appeared just once last year
and turned Pinggyego

into a total mess.

[First mistake]
Starting from Gyegukji...

[Second mistake]
Then Punghyang High...

But because of that
a great piece of content was created.

[Chitter Chatter]

Mr. Hornet!

[Here comes the award winner Gyewon]
You look very fine today.

Jung Min!

Mr. Hornet!

[After a long time, hugging Sung Hwa]
Hey, Sung Hwa.

[Now welcoming Sang Hoon, too]
You're still adorable, Sang Hoon.

Here comes adorable Sang Hoon.

[Nice to see you]
Hello.

Jung Min, you look so stylish today.

It's more exciting to see these people than you!

[Haven't met the production team
since Punghyang High]

How have you all been?

Mr. Hornet, you look good today!

Mr. Hornet?

He doesn't know what it is... Hornet...

What is it?

[Is he Mr. Hornet because of the Hornet guy?]
The Hornet guy?

Yeah, the Hornet guy.

He went to Punghyang High

Like the Hornet guy he started looking
and moving around here and there.

So the viewers started to call him Mr. Hornet.

Really?

Are you going somewhere today?

They prepared it for me for this show.

[He looks especially stylish today]
You look really good today.

Do I?

Not as much as you, though.

[Amid the exchanged compliments, drinks arrive]
Thank you.

You’ve changed a lot.

Now you’re even giving fake compliments!

[Mr. Angry returns as Mr. Sweet]
Not as much as you?

[Punghyang High / EP. 3]
[Jealousy / Happiness / Timidity / Anger]

Okay!

Let me introduce our Gyewon of the day.

[The person who created Punghyang High]
Punghyang High and

[And the winner of the 2024 Pinggyego Awards]
the winner of the 2024 Pinggyego Awards!

Mr. Hornet! Hwang Jung Min!

[Nice to meet you, Gye-guk-ji]

And now, my junior and adorable Sang Hoon.

Adorable!

And the star of the musical world, Chung Sung Hwa!

Star!

Hahahahaha!

Even your laugh is...

Hahahahaha!

His voice technique is so open.

[Even his laughter sounds like a musical star]

It is indeed very open.

[He made his debut as an SBS comedian]
I've changed a lot since we last saw each other.

I know.

From the program "Hangout with Yoo"

you're the "Nokwon Shopping Mall."

[Whisper]
Can we talk about that in here?

It’s you! Who else would it be?

[In Hangout with Yoo, '80s MBC Seoul Music Awards]
At first, I didn’t recognize him.

[Sung Hwa's nickname was Nokwon Shopping Mall]
I didn’t expect him to be on the show...

[He sang "Star Has Fallen"]
As soon as I heard his voice, I knew it was Sung Hwa!

He's such a great singer.

He sure is.

Anyone can recognize his singing.

- There's a certain aspect.
- What is it?

[Instant impression]

He raises the pitch!

[His voice is his ID card]
He's got his own style?

- It's a bit different these days.
- Embracing.

Jung Min has also here.

He hasn't been on Pinggyego for a while.

Yeah, we're doing something together.

[It’s been about 10 years]
It's been a while since I've done musicals.

What is it called?

"Mrs. Doubtfire"

[Musical "Mrs. Doubtfire" Sept 27th~Dec 7th]
You know the film?

[After a divorce, separated from his children]
I do!

[The dad "Daniel"]
And it was turned into a musical.

[disguises himself as a housekeeper, Mrs. Doubtfire]
He’s divorced

[To get closer to his family again]
but to see his kids

he dresses up as the housekeeper and sneaks in

as a grandma.

Is it the first performance? It's not, right?

It’s a revival.

- He did the first performance.
- I see.

[Triple cast for the role of Mrs. Doubtfire]
So, all three of you are playing

the role of Mrs. Doubtfire now.

You must be practicing a lot for the musical.

Yeah.

He is the earliest to arrive.

Yeah, he said he goes ahead to get there early.

[Rainy season is just an excuse / Ep. 50]
[He arrives two or three hours early]

Do you come late?

No, I tend to go early too.

Even without rehearsal, I have a lot of lines

so I usually arrive early.

I get there around 9:30.

[Jung Min is always already there]
He's always there.

Even when I arrive at 9, he’s already there.

Wait, is he just staying there?

[Oh...]
Well!

Outside!

There was his laundry.

[For real...?]
Really?

So I thought he slept there.

But turns out he worked out in the morning.

- Oh!
- Oh...

So, do you work out before rehearsal?

- Yeah.
- Wow, doesn’t that make you tired?

Not really, it’s not that tiring!

Working out is a part of my routine.

So, you get there about 3 hours early?

Because there’s a lot to memorize for the script.

[A universal rule, no matter what the job is]
If I stay at home, I can’t really focus.

I can’t focus on the script.

Even if I want to read it, I can’t focus.

But when I come here and
see the other people practicing

[Motivation to work harder]
It gives me motivation

to go through the script
more than I would otherwise.

[Sung Hwa can relate]
But there’s no way around it, you know.

[Been doing musicals for over 20 years]
I’ve been on many musical productions

but this time, there’s just so much to do.

Tap dance!

Loop machine!

[Loop station]
Do you know what a loop station is?

[It records sound in real-time and repeats it]
Yeah, I do.

[Used for live performances]

And then I also have to rap.

[They have two roles, so there’s a lot of lines]
There’s just so much to do.

So are you doing everything, including tap dance?

I regret it.

Why did I say yes to this show...

I really regret it.

You always regret, haha.

These days, he always says

"Should I just quit?"

[That shows how tough the practice is]
When you do tap dance, your feet have to be...

Yeah, I have to work on it.

But once the performance starts
it’s not so bad, right?

It’s fine as long as the audience laughs.
We’re grateful for that.

We had a script reading yesterday.

He did it.

[A scene where the family is coming home]
The family of three is coming back home.

It's a new house
but it has a weird smell and is kind of a mess.

It’s fine, come in, come in.

But when he said, "Come in, come in" two times

[Staff murmured]
They were like "Oh..."

[That line sounds really familiar...]
What's going on?

Come in, come in.

[Oh, the film "New World"]

They told him not to do it because it's scary.

[Automatically responds to the iconic scene]
He didn't realize it.

[Meanwhile, Jung Min was confused]
What's going on?

[He had no idea]
Come in, come in!

Isn't it great?

Everyone was like "Uhm..."

[A family comedy turning into a thriller]
To his kids, "Come in, come in."

[Just two words completely change the genre]
So we laughed for a while because of that.

Since you have such a strong

- and iconic lines you did.
- He has those unforgettable scenes.

It was hilarious.

So anyway, when does this start?

When is it again?

September 27th!

[Important notice]
From September 27th at the Charlotte Theater!

Come on, Jung Min.

Well, they’re going to do it eventually.

Of course they would!

"The performance is the day after tomorrow."
Then it's on.

From September 27th at Charlotte Theater.

I’ll have to check it out!

We’ve gathered here today because

well, for the musical, yes, but

we’re all alumni.

Jung Min is from the class of 1990.

Class of 1990!

Oh, the subtitle’s showing up.

No, it’s not. Look over there.

[Right here]

[Let's laugh it out!]

Just put it on top of him.

[Theater Department 1993 Chung Sung Hwa]
So that it's up here until the end.

[As requested]
Almost to the point it's annoying.

Yoon-ju... Jang Yoon-ju, she's a model, right?

(Hwang Jung Min) I didn't know she studied Film.

(Yu Jae Seok) I didn't know Sang Jin
studied Entertainment Broadcasting.

(Chung Sung Hwa) I didn't know
Donghwi studied Theater.

[Three strikes of realization]

I didn't even know he was in our school.

You were in Entertainment Broadcasting

but I heard you were also in
a Comedy Club, is that true?

[Comedy Club was made by]
People think he studied Theater.

[the theater department at Seoul Arts University]
I know.

But they don't really accept
students from other departments.

That's not true.

At some point, there was also
a student from the playwriting department.

No, no.

When I was there, it was tough!

I was the only one to have
an audition from our major.

[Quietly discovered a jangdokdae]

Why did you pull that out?

It just caught my attention...

Oh, it's a jangdokdae.

[Jangdokdae was a student hangout spot in the open
area of the Namsan campus at Seoul Arts University]

See? Just like a hornet.

Jangdokdae.

Jangdokdae of Entertainment&Broadcasting.

No, it's jangdokdae of Theater Department.

[There was a bit of a rivalry between Broadcasting
Entertainment and Theater departments]

[Broadcasting&Entertainment / Theater department
Broadcasting&Entertainment / Theater department]

- What the... This is our jangdokdae.
- It was in front of B&E.

[Theater department in between B&E]
It was in front of B&E! How is it yours?

When we were there
everyone was in the Theater department.

Before B&E was established
that area used to be a minari field.

What are you saying?

What on earth are you saying, a minari field?

It's true.

Before the foot volleyball field?

Yeah. The Theater department was
the first to be established there.

Yeah, that's true.

It was just the Theater department for a while.
That whole area was a minari field.

So did they pull out all the minari
and put it in the jangdokdae?

[Slight stutter]
That’s how it happened...

After the jangdokdae
the B&E department came along.

Come on, you and I are only one year apart.

What do you mean by a minari field?

Come on.

That's absurd.

[Hehe, got you!]
What the...

You're being absurd.

Come on!

We're only one year apart.
How on earth would there have been a minari field?

I just said it, lol.

[Almost got fooled by his acting]
You said it so seriously.

Mr. Hornet, come on!

So the Theater department thinks of the jangdokdae

as their own kind of territory.

Yeah, we would go there to
practice production and rehearsals...

Anyway, it was in front of the B&E department...

- Didn’t we play a lot of foot volleyball?
- We did play a lot of foot volleyball there...

Yeah.

I was playing foot volleyball, and

the ball went out, outside.

- There was the ANSP next door.
- Yeah, the ANSP was right next to it.

But I didn’t know it was the ANSP!

So I just went in to look for the ball.

[Accidentally walked into the ANSP]
I kept walking and

six people grabbed me like this.

They lifted me up like this.

- Really?
- Yes, I was lifted.

- Really?
- For real?

“Do you know where you’re walking into right now?”

They were probably hoisting you.

“Do you know where you’re entering right now?”

So I said
"Oh, I’m sorry, I’m just here to find a ball."

It's the same as the current NIS.

But NIS and ANSP is...

They are very different.

It was called the Agency for National Security
Planning, and the atmosphere there was really...

It was very strict.

It was beyond strict!

From the outside
you couldn’t tell what was going on at all.

It was very frightening.

Since it was right next to our school wall

[Foot volleyball ball going over the wall]
The ball would sometimes go over the wall.

Sometimes, when we say

“Could you throw the ball back?”

Sometimes it would come back

and sometimes it wouldn’t.

There was a story that was going around that

someone like Sung Hwa went to look for the ball
and never came back...

[Sung Hwa even went through a security check]
So I did a security check.

- You did?
- Yeah, I went through it and came back out.

Over just one ball going over?

Regardless, I entered the ANSP.

They couldn’t just let me out.
I might have been a spy.

It's not like you said, "I'm coming in."

You just entered through an open door.

[Seniors told me to do it]
I just went because the seniors told me to.

[Did nothing but pick up a ball...]
Right.

[Mosquito / Mosquito spotted]
There’s a mosquito on your head.

Above your head.

[Heroic mosquito swatting]

Done.

You should have warned me louder.

[Somewhat passive mosquito announcement]

There’s a mosquito...

You didn't make a big deal because
it wasn't coming towards you, right?

If it had come, it would’ve been dead by now...

[Mosquito bro in danger]

[Scanning the alumni list]
You were from the class of 1990.

[Alumni with actor Ryu Seungryong]
You were in the same class with Seungryong, right?

There were a lot of famous people
in that class, right?

Dong Yeob!

[Class of 1990, Golden class of the University]
Oh, yeah.

[Comedian Shin Dong Yeob, Actor Hwang Jung Min]
An Jaewook.

[Seungryong, Jae-Young, Jaewook, Won-hee]
Oh, yeah. Jaewook, too.

Lim Won-hee.

He was also in the class of 1990.

Are you the same age as Dong Yeob?

[Dong Yeob (early 1971 born) Jung Min (1970 born)]
I think so?

[Repeated the year to the class of 1990]
Dong Yeob repeated a year, right?

I think so.

Right.

Did you repeat a year?

I did.

I see.

Sigh...

[Suddenly feeling sad thinking about those days]
Why?

Well, I mean, repeating a year is fine.

Of course, it's totally fine to repeat a year.

[Back then at Seoul Arts University]
Back then, the Seoul Arts University entrance exam

[Had to take a separate entrance exam]
we had to take the academic test separately.

- That's true.
- We did.

At that time, I...

I got hurt badly.

So I had to take the exam in the nurse's office.

[Took the exam despite the pain]
Really?

- You were badly hurt...
- It was so bad.

But I was so embarrassed about the injury
I couldn’t talk about it.

Where did you get hurt?

We used to play tag at the playground, right?

I fell from the top of the slide.

You know the metal flower bed?

I slammed into the middle of the metal flower bed.

[Fell straight onto the metal flower bed]
I hit the middle part really hard, like bang!

Argh! That's what happened.

Was your important part torn apart...?

No, I got another butt under my butt.

[Severely swollen thigh]
It was that bad?

[It was a very serious injury]

That could have been really bad.

- That was really close.
- So...

I ended up wearing my mom’s skirt!

[Wobbling to the exam room]

[Entrance exam looks featured by mom’s skirt]
I wore my mom's skirt

[LOL]
I couldn’t wear pants, so I wore my mom’s skirt.

[Got there with the help of his friends]
My friends helped me and carried me to the exam.

I had a pain from just turning my head.

That must hurt so much with all the swelling.

I was taking a lot of painkillers, so

it was impossible to take the exam.

I was lying down taking the exam

and I started snoring...

If I fell asleep, they woke me up.

[Nodding off due to painkillers
dozing and waking up repeatedly]

- But did you do well?
- How did you manage to pass the exam?

That's the crazy part!

[How did he pass while he was dozing off?]
How did you pass the exam?

I took the exam in the nurse's office
and one teacher was there.

[Thinking...]

Maybe they helped you
because they felt sorry for you.

[He's dozing off way too much...]
"He fell asleep again..."

[Wow... You really hit the nail on the head!]
He's asleep again, number four...

This guy’s amazing!

[Had to take a practical exam too]
Then I had to take the practical exam.

Yeah, we did.

I couldn’t walk, but I still had to take the
practical in the big theater at the Drama Center.

[The theater has a lot of stairs]
The stairs are really steep.

The seats are like that.

[The teachers are sitting in the front row]
The teachers are sitting in the front row.

[It takes forever just to get down the stairs]
It took me so long to get down.

Because you were injured.

I gave them my portfolio and tried to do my lines.

They said, “Okay, that’s enough.”
I had to go back up.

[So much time wasted]
It took a lot of time

[He couldn't do anything]
so I was just able to hand my portfolio.

But outside, people were like

"Wow... You spent so much time in there!"

[The students outside didn't know
the full story and misunderstood]

"You spent so much time in there!"

[Excited friends]
“Yo, that means you passed!”

They had no idea...

[Another crazy entrance exam story]
You're such a funny guy

[Full of stories]
Jung Min.

[SBS 3rd Generation, 1994]
As I mentioned earlier, Sung Hwa

[Debuted as a comedian through public auditions]
originally debuted as a comedian.

- That's true.
- From SBS.

I went to audition for the Comedy Club

right after entering school.

On the day of the audition, you were there.

I was?

You came as a reporter.

[Suddenly remembered]
Back then, you were with KBS.

[KBS "Entertainment Weekly" reporter days]
You came over and said

[Visited the Comedy Club audition site]
"Today we’re here at the Comedy Club

[Reminiscent]
audition site."

You were there as a reporter.

Yeah, I was there.

So I remember that day.

[Passed the audition that day]
I passed that audition.

- You were there that day.
- Yeah, I was.

While I was active in the Comedy Club
we had our school festival, you know.

During the festival, I did something

and Dong Yeob saw it!

[SBS was very new at the time]
At that time, SBS had just been launched, so

[They needed fresh new faces]
they needed fresh faces.

Dongyeop said, "Oh, this guy’s good."

So the next day, he took me straight to SBS.

[Started working as an FD]
I worked with the PD and did some FD work.

[Got used to the broadcasting scene naturally]
I learned the ropes

and prepared for auditions.

So that’s how you ended up as a public recruit.

In a way, Dong Yeob picked you
and helped you get into the scene.

Yeah.

Later on, you slowly shifted to acting.

After I came back from the military

I did a drama called KAIST on SBS.

[SBS drama KAIST in 1999]
It went really well.

[Lives, friendships, and struggles of scientists]
KAIST was super popular.

[He played Jung Mansoo, a master's degree student]
People who remember will still know it.

[Started getting CF offers and became successful]
After that

I started getting commercial offers
and things were going great.

But then, suddenly

[A sudden end to the success]
work just stopped coming in.

[Period without work]
So for about a year and a half or two

[Spent time with close friend Sang Hoon]
I just hung out with Sang Hoon.

He thought he’d be doing SBS work forever.

You know the Tan-hyeon production center?

[He found a place near SBS]
He found a place right in front.

Then work stopped, right?

[Just lived near SBS without work...]
So without any work

he just lived in front of SBS.

I spent over a year
just living near SBS doing nothing.

And I thought, "Wow, I’ve become too lazy."

[Then, comedian Pyo Inbong made a suggestion]
At that time, Inbong

[A two-man play with Kim Kyungshik, "Island"]
suggested a two-man play

featuring myself and Khyungshik.

One of the biggest names in the musical industry
CEO Seol Doyun

Oh! I know him.

he came to see the show.

He noticed me!

[2004 Musical "I Love You"]
So, while preparing for a new work

[Casting for the upcoming project]
he said, "I want to work with that person."

[This led to Sung Hwa's musical career]
I really wanted to grab that opportunity.

[The star power that shines when it matters]
You seemed to have some real talent

that caught attention.

But the thing is, he could sing really well.

[He had talent to back it up]
That's why he was chosen.

[So he was able to grab the opportunity]
If he couldn't sing, how would he do musicals?

- That would be impossible.
- Right.

[Sung Hwa's representative work]
The first thing that comes to mind...

[Musical "Hero," playing Ahn Jung-geun]
Patriot Ahn Jung-geun.

"Hero."

Can you sing a line from that musical?

[Requested a line from the song Jangbuga from Hero]
"Jangbuga."

[Live performance at 9 in the morning, no less]
Jangbuga, born into this world...

[His singing voice commands attention]

The sound...

[The office is filled with
his exceptional vocal power]

One person over there has blood
coming out of their ear from the volume.

[Not Missing a Beat, Playful]

Hero is split into before and after the movie.

After the film was released
things got so much better because

the audience had so many young kids.

[Kids filling the audience even on the way home]
After the show, the kids would come up to me.

Some of them brought the old Taegukgi!

[A Taegukgi with Ahn Jung-geun's bloodstain]
The Taegukgi from the era of Korean independence.

[Kids asking for signatures on the Taegukgi]
They’d ask me to sign it.

[Sneaky snack break]
Some kids brought them.

[One bite of rice cake]
There were kids dressed up like Ahn Jung-geun.

Just like you said, the kids would

memorize all the songs from the musical!

[Nom nom]

Is the rice cake good?

[He's enjoying it, meaning it's delicious]
It's really good.

Since we worked together on Pungyang High

spending a few days together

[Hwang-eats-again days on Pungyang High]
the production team studied Jung Min's taste buds

[Researching Jung Min's taste preferences]
in detail.

[He likes roasted chestnuts and carbs]
So it's here.

[Chestnuts and carb combo]
Testing what you would eat.

[Prepared chestnut rice cake]
So this is a snack for Mr. Hornet.

As soon as I sat down, I was like

Oh, I need to eat that!

[Internal conflict of Hwang-eats-again
who eats anything in front of him]

When am I going to grab it...

[Perfectly tailored snack to Jung Min's taste]
And sure enough, Mr. Hornet kept going at it.

It’s so good, I’m shocked.

[Feeling satisfied seeing him enjoying the snacks]
It’s perfect for his taste.

By the way, for some reason, Sang Hoon seems

[B&E Major 1991, B&E Major 1996]
more like a theater major

even though you and I were in the same department.
We’ve talked about this before.

Why are you closer to your
Theater department friends?

[Comedy Club had a lot of theater majors]
It’s probably because of the Comedy Club.

Is that so?

After joining the Comedy Club

I naturally got close to the people there.

[Another bite of rice cake]
Because I was close with them, B&E was set aside.

B&E were not happy about this.

Oh, B&E didn't like him so much?

It's true!

[Sang Hoon caused meetings to be called]
They even held a meeting because of me.

Why?

"These days..."

"I heard there's a bastard..."

"Who's hanging out with the Theater department!"

[Trying hard to get out of it]
I hope I'm not the one they're talking about.

There’s always that tension between seniors.

- Yeah, the tension.
- They're rivals!

The theater department doesn’t think like that.

Not at all. We're like, "Who are you?"

[No interest in the rivalry]

See? This is why the seniors got more annoyed.

[Unlike the calm Theater department]
Among our Broadcasting department seniors

[B&E seniors burned with passion]
some were really fired up.

Back in the day, when it’s sports day

[The day the school turns upside down]
It was almost like a war!

If you lose, they’d gather
everyone for a group meeting!

[True that]
Right.

[But still were close with the Theater department]
But I remained close with them...

[Clean]
When did you finish this?

Come on, think of us a little!

He just kept eating without listening to us talk!

[Feeling disappointed. He couldn't have any]
Is there more rice cake? I really want some!

The rice cake is so delicious, it's not too sweet.

It’s hitting his taste buds perfectly.

[Sweet Potato Sticks]
This is really good, I like this.

[Date Palm]
This is good too, huh?

So I told them.

When you put the chestnuts in whole
it tastes really good!

[Whole chestnut rice cake refill]
Thank you.

[Eyes fixed]

Thank you.

Do you want some more date palm?

Are these date palms?

Where are the palms? Are these palms?

Ha...

[Laughing at his own question]
Hey!

[Date Palm: Fruit from a palm tree]

Shall we do a Yaza-time?

[AZ style YAZA humor]
Shall we do a Yaza-time?

They're like...

An old man who came
to the restaurant late at night...

[The vibe of friendly uncles...]

[Totally agreed]
Right.

The only customers left in the restaurant.

But they won't leave.

They won't leave and ask questions.

"Can I come back tomorrow and pay?"

Then it turns to a fight.

[Suddenly fights after having fun]
All of the sudden.

[Suddenly acting out a scene]
"When did I do that?"

[Feeling good with plenty of snacks]
This is so good.

It's really good.

You originally started as a comedian

then became an actor, right?

[Friend who was from Super Talent from KBS]
My friend was in Super Talent.

[KBS Comedy Corner]
He was on a show called People of Geumchon.

Oh, yeah!

[The role of a gangster was available at the time]
They said the gangster role was open.

- I remember.
- A gangster.

So, I asked, "Can I do it?"
And he told the team.

[Got permission to be on the show together]
They said yes, so we ended up going together.

That’s when I met Youngja.

I greeted her respectfully
and I was also quite good-looking.

Aren't I?

I'm getting cold stares!

[Flustered]
Why isn't anyone answering him?

Nobody is going to say a thing?

Can you at least respond?

He's also very quiet!

[Nothing but silence...]
Mr. Hornet was also quiet.

You sure are handsome.

You're not bad.

[Very late reaction]
Not bad.

[That day, good-looking Sang Hoon]
So, I showed some of the skits

[Showed his skills he learned in Comedy Club]
I learned in the Comedy Club.

Youngja really liked it.

On that day, she asked

"Do you have an agency?"

I said I don't.

"I’m going to start an agency
do you want to join?"

That's what happened.

[After joining Youngja's agency]
So then

[He got cast for a new program]
I started a new program.

[Remembers]
Thinking back

it was "I Love Comedy."

[1996 SBS Variety Show "I Love Comedy"]
So for example

[Co-hosted by Lee Youngja & Hong Jinkyung]
it was a show like SNL with open comedy.

[Open comedy]
That's what Youngja was trying to do.

But it didn't work out very well.

So what?

So what...?

- Do you want me to stop?
- No, that's not what I meant.

- The nuance was like "It's time to stop." Right?
- It's time to stop.

[1998 SBS sitcom "How About Me"]
That's not what I meant. So

[Debut as an actor]
when did you start your acting career?

[Ended up thriving in]
So I was trying to talk about that...

[multiple areas as an actor]

[Now it's his turn for a joke]
You spun that super fast!

We don't do that these days.

[Stopping old-school comedy style]
Why are you mentioning "fast forward" right now?

I know how to make that sound, though!

[Personal talent released
Fast tape rewinding sound]

He's got so many talents!

He’s really good at making sounds with his mouth!

[Changed the topic to Sung Hwa's talents]
Right.

Making sounds with his mouth.

- Sung Hwa!
- Drum?

Yeah, do that.

Boom-chik boom-chik!

- Boom-chik boom-chik!
- He's so talented!

[Self-made drum beats]
This is how he became a comedian!

[Excited Jae Seok, asking for more]
Why don't you do another one?

Car sound!

Vroom.

[Amazed]

[More excited]
Now do a plane!

Swish.

[Additional request]
You ran into a bird!

Brrr... Prrr...

[Super satisfied audience]

[He's the whole package! From a drum
to a car, to a plane, and then a bird]

He's really the whole package.

Wow, I haven't done this in a while.

That was fun.

Sang Hoon, you’ve got so many talents too, right?

[Korean Chinese, AI Giga Hoony]
Yeah, I can mimic AI and stuff like that.

[Master of personal talents]
You have plenty.

He really has good ideas.

[Master Copy Cat also admits]
He has a lot of ideas, yeah.

[Sang Hoon offers his talents himself]
Should I show you some?

Yeah, just a couple.

What should I start with? Chinese?

Xi fang dang seya, something like that?

[Instantly delivers Korean Chinese]

Xie xie, lamp chops, and tsingtao.

Have some.

Stomach, full, full!

Don't just sit there, stand up.

Something like this, you know?

You kind of get it
and at the same time, it's annoying.

[Korean Chinese humor on point]
Full, full, laugh!

[Mr. Hornet laughing out loud]

Mr. Hornet loves it.

You know what?

- I'm always next to him...
- Do you do it for him?

I see him more often than my wife!

[They're always together these days]
We practice together, clocking in and out.

[Kindly makes everyone laugh]
That’s why Sang Hoon gets so much love.

[Bestie agrees]
That's true.

For example
when it’s time to go to the second spot

he’s already gone ahead and made the reservation.

[Acts fast and takes care of things without asking]
Stuff like that.

That kind of stuff needs to be
taken care of quickly.

[Jung Min usually takes care of the bills]
He always pays for what we eat.

[Sang Hoon felt a little guilty]
It felt bad always getting treated

so I tried to pay once. But

he grabbed my wrist and said

"Don't you dare!"

After that, I never tried again!

[His firm rejection]
I never did!

[Mr. Hornet can't stand
the juniors paying the bills]

Don't you dare!

Jeongmin was also here.

[The same company as Jung Min, "Sem Company"]
Jeongmin came out and...

[The tone that actor Park Jeongmin also imitated]
Yeah, I heard about that.

I didn't watch it.

But I heard he imitated me.

[Explaining "You Quiz on the Block" EP.297]
He told us he was

running a publishing company and
taking a break from acting for about a year.

[Jung Min hearing that]
Jung Min said,

"Don't you dare rest!"

[Imitation difficulty level very low]
"Don't you dare rest!"

I filmed a movie with him back then

[Released in 2012]
called "Dancing Queen"

[During the process of filming "Dancing Queen"]
It's been a while.

Yeah, it's been a long time.

In the middle of that, I got a call from him.

[The call came while he was eating something]
I was eating something when I answered. "Hello?"

"Stop eating, don't you dare!"

[Over 10 years...
The repeated variation of "Don't you dare"]

"Stop eating, don't you dare!"

["Stop eating, don't you dare!"]
That was the first thing he said on the phone!

Not even a “Hello.”

[Immediately skipped Hello to his signature line]
"Stop eating, don't you dare!"

And now, I'm the one eating, haha.

My hand just went to the food.

Jung Min's stories...

[Known for his rich collection of funny stories]
There are so many fun stories everywhere.

- Jung Min's stories...
- Hmm...

What's wrong?

Makes me think... I should live carefully.

[Starting to cheer him up with compliments]
In the musical we're doing

he's already a pro.

And I'm good at it too, right?

Please show some reaction.

Give him a hand!

[Very quiet bros]
Mr. Hornet!

- Wow...
- Really?

- Yes, he's great.
- But

[Back to the main point]
I’m really looking forward to seeing him on stage.

I’ve never seen him like this before.

[The first time seeing Jung Min’s humorous acting]
Light, playful

and cute, doing all that kind of stuff.
I’ve never seen that side of him before.

So the practice room is full of great energy!

I’ve seen your previous work.

[In the play "Macbeth"]
That's very deep.

[Jung Min showed a solid acting performance]
It was very deep.

The role itself is like that.

[This time, it’s going to be completely upbeat]
I’m really looking forward to that part, too.

[Anyway]
So this is like

Jung Min never intended it, but

he is a bundle of episodes.

Totally, there’s so much.

Every time he talks about something
it turns into an episode.

Even with us

with Pinggyego, he made a lot of episodes.

[Thanks to that Punghyang High ended up on a trip]
That’s how we ended up going to Punghyang High/

[For those Gyewon who don't know about this]
I'm not sure if you've seen this episode or not.

[The origin of Punghyang High]
I should have said Pinggyego.

But I misspoke by saying...

Punghyang High...

[Introducing a word that never existed before]
Oh, when it should have been Pinggyego?

We even won an award.

[61st Baeksang Arts Awards]
We won the grand prize.

[Best Entertainment Program, Punghyang High]
It was the Best Program award.

[2nd Pinggyego Awards
Grand Prize Winner, Hwang Jung Min]

I was so happy.

Then the PD here sent me a message

saying it was because of me.

It wasn't because of me.

- It was!
- Come on.

Anyway, we all went together

you know, with...

[Floundering]

[Floundering]
Jae Seok and...

You've forgotten all the names?

[Yup]

[Come on, how dare you!]
Don't be like that!

Oh, suddenly I can’t remember their name...

- (Listen) Seokjin.
- (And repeat) Oh, yeah! Seokjin.

- Sechan.
- Sechan.

[Completely lost it]

I'm sorry.

Let’s just do that part again.

Anyway, thanks to them

it was so much fun, we had a really great time.

- And they said we won the Best Program award...
- I know.

[Surprised by the award news]
I was totally shocked.

Yeah, we were.

Jeongmin is really funny, too.

- Yeah, he's funny.
- He's really funny.

- You mean Park Jeongmin?
- Yeah, Park Jeongmin.

They have the same name.
Park Jeongmin and Hwang Jung Min.

[Park Jeongmin's debut work]
I saw "Bleak Night"

[Connection of Park Jeongmin & Hwang Jung Min]
at the time

I saw "Bleak Night"
and there was this other actor, too...

[Struggling with proper names]
You know... That actor...

The handsome one...

- There are so many handsome people.
- Way too many.

There's Jung Sang Hoon, too!

[Determined]
We'll take a guess.

Just give us a little more hint.

[Starting 20 Questions]
Handsome.

The one talking into a walkie-talkie…

[Answer: Lee Je-hoon]
Je-hoon, Lee Je-hoon!

I thought it would be Cho Jinwoong.
What a shame.

[First hint: Handsome / Second hint: Walkie-talkie
we can admit that's an answer too]

- Actually, Cho Jinwoong used a walkie-talkie.
- They both did.

Anyway, I saw Je-hoon and Jeongmin.

When I was watching "Bleak Night,"
Jeongmin caught my attention.

[Jung Min spots Jeongmin]
Oh, he did?

Yeah, so

I wanted to find out if he had a manager or not.

So that I could bring him to our company
if he didn't have any.

[So they became family under the same roof]
Let's pick him up.

I was also at his office, Sem Company
for more than five years.

- Really?
- Yeah.

[Strange Fate, he was also under the same roof]
You were here, too?

[2012 to 2013]
I did a musical called

[They both performed in the musical Assassin]
Assassin with him.

That’s where I first met him.

Back then, he was also directing.

[His directorial debut while acting]
He was the director too.

At that time, I had a 15-minute monologue

in both Act one and Act two.

- Oh, you did well back then.
- I memorized it perfectly and did it!

I think he was really impressed.

Director Jung Min said,
"Sang Hoon, you don't need any more practice."

[Excited]
Jung-eun was there too!

Wow.

- Don't you remember?
- Of course I do.

You remember this one! What a relief.

Are you sure you remember this?

[Fake expert checking the facts]
Don't lie.

Don't you dare lie!

[Mistreated Jung Min]

I do remember.

[We trust you]
So

I didn’t have an office.

[On the day of his first child’s first birthday]
It was my first child’s first birthday.

He asked if I had any offers.

So I proposed.

"Is it okay if I join your office?"

[And thus, Lamb Skewers & Tsingtao was born]
That’s how Lamb Skewers & Tsingtao came to be.

Sang Hoon did really well at your office!

Yeah, I did. Things went really well.

Jeongmin did well, everyone did.

One day, I was doing Lamb Skewers & Tsingtao

[The phone call from Jung Min at night]
and he called me, so I answered.

He seemed like he had had a little to drink.

He said, "Hey, I’m so proud of you."

And honestly
I really got emotional at that moment.

From Lamb Skewers & Tsingtao onward,

[The Hardworking Icon, Jung Sang Hoon]
you've been doing a lot of ads, too.

[Movies, TV Dramas, Variety Shows, and Ads]
I'm so grateful for that.

I’ve been watching both of you since school days

[Touched by how far they are now]
it really hits me seeing how far you’ve come.

How far has Sung Hwa come
in terms of position in the musical world?

He’s at your level now.

[Shocked]
No, I'm not.

["Chung Sung Hwa, the Yu Jae Seok of Musicals"]
He's really at your level.

Musical world Nikoree Chung Sung Hwa.

Come on, you can't say Nikoree!

[Awkward]
Oh, gosh.

Pfft, huh!

You did whatever you wanted to!

[The Youngest in Age, Class, and Debut]
Whenever I say something

[At the bottom of the food chain today]
you really try to tear me apart.

[Regardless, here goes the teasing again]
Nikoree, did you say Nikoree?

I don’t think Gyewon would know about this.

What was it originally?

[Standard: “Equal” (=)]
It's "Equal."

Nikoree...

[Most accurate pronunciation]

Nikorrrr?

Bon jourrr?

You can do it in French, too.

Nikorrrr?

[Master of Korean Chinese, a language magician]

[Big fan of Sang Hoon]
Sang Hoon, do a few more for us.

[Request accepted]

Hello.

I need more date palms.

I will bring you more date palms.

[Date Palms]

[Chestnut rice cake]

Excuse me, I asked for date palms.

Error.

[Audience Satisfaction: 5 Stars]

Did you two practice this in advance?

Why do you keep playing
the role of the other person?

We practiced it in the underground parking lot.

It’s hard to do it alone.

[Feeling proud and a little giddy]
That was funny.

[Thanks to the Musical]
As I mentioned earlier

[Dapper Mr. Hornet, we haven't seen in a while]
Jung Min is starting in musicals.

Honestly, I’m not joking, Jung Min

you look really good today.

- Really?
- Yeah.

You look kinda handsome today.

[Best reaction from someone allergic to compliments]
Seriously!

It's just...

You look really good today.

[Shying away from the camera in embarrassment]
It's just...

I hope to get handsome...

You wish for that too?

I didn't know you had that in mind...!

- You have that...
- No, nope!

- I thought so too.
- It's not that.

That's such a deal breaker.

That's not what I meant.

When it comes to my own story
you’ve never agreed with me, but you...!

I didn’t expect you to make a comment on this.

[Feeling Betrayed]
That's not what I meant.

I’ve always thought, deep down

that as an actor grows older

I hoped their looks would improve in a good way.

I’ve had that thought since I was young!

In your 40s, you really have
the perfect face for an actor.

Once you hit your 50s

the way you lived your 20s to 40s

shows on your face.

That’s why I wanted to live my 20s to 40s well

so that my face in my 50s
would look a little better.

It’s not about being handsome or not

but I always hoped to have a face
that looks good as a human being…!

I’ve always thought about that.

[To explain more specifically]
Some people, as they age

their face becomes even more
impressive as an actor!

I want to hear that as I get older!

I always thought about this.

And now, hearing you say that

I wonder if the things I’ve been
thinking about are slowly starting to show.

That’s why I’m saying this now.

To take this to a deeper conversation, you know?

You're really looking good today.

Yeah...

When we go to the practice room
he's got this aura.

So, even when there are many people

you can immediately tell, “Oh, he’s over there.”

It feels like there’s
this heatwave rising from above.

It’s like a mirage, almost.

You went so far!

- Out of anger, lol.
- Out of anger, haha.

You’d better watch out...!

[Mirage level up]

[Curious about Mr. Hornet in the practice room]
How’s the atmosphere when you get there?

When you walk in

are people happy to see you or
do they kind of avoid you?

Of course, they avoid me...

I mean

I think it's difficult for them.

[Can’t blame them, he's a such a big star]
Right.

I don’t feel that way at all.

Honestly, I just see them
as friends and colleagues.

[Empathy]
Right, we’re all colleagues.

We’re not senior-junior
we’re just people working together.

But it feels weird explaining that to them...

[Worried about sounding like an old-timer]
I feel like it sounds too old-fashioned

so I don’t explain it, but

when those friends look at me

I start thinking, "Was I like that"

"When I looked at my seniors when I was younger?"

It’s kind of a reversal of roles, you know?

[Deep into the story]
I know what you mean.

I don’t want them to feel like that.
But at the end of the day,

I have to take the first step and approach them.

[Senior colleagues agreeing]
That's true.

I need to take the initiative

crack some jokes

that way, the atmosphere in the group gets better.

So we end up having dinners for that.

But yeah, it’s good for that night
but the next morning, it's back to the usual...

[The dream of team harmony, shattered]

I tried a lot as well.

I used the power of alcohol to try
and get closer to everyone...

Then, mustering up the courage
the kids came up to me

we threw our arms around each other
sang songs together, and had a great time.

But then, the next day, I go in

"Hello."

[Back to pre-dinner awkwardness]
That's what happens.

Sung Hwa, you’ve been feeling that recently, too?

I’m getting older now and

I’ve been doing performances for a long time, so

now there are even friends who call me "teacher."

[21 years in musical theatre]
Right, that makes sense.

The way they greet me is like

they should be like "Hello!"

But they are like "Hello..."

[Real-life experience]
And then they walk away.

- Really?
- Yeah, there are kids like that.

They’re probably just surprised to see you.

If that happens, show them your drum skills.

Hello.

[Jung Min's recommended beats
I will not hurt you]

[Warning: Potential side effects]
Don’t do it, please.

But why do you make that face

when you’re drumming?

I guess to make that sound
he has to have that face.

[A logical conclusion from the professionals]
It’s all about the resonance, you know?

I just can’t imitate it.

[Instead of beats, forming a mirage]

It’s a talent, but a curse, haha!

He's been doing this with that face
from the beginning, you know?

[There’s a legend at Seoul Institute of the Arts]

Wow, this is going to be on the internet forever.

[17 years in Musical production]
You're also considered a senior too, right?

You might be less intimidating than them
but do they still find you difficult to approach?

[More proactive in approaching others]
I try to be really relaxed from the start

making people laugh

and joking around, intentionally.

Just like you said
I try to make things feel equal.

[Occasionally]
So, sometimes

"That's going a bit too far..."

But I let it slide.

[Curious about Sang Hoon’s generosity]
How far do you actually go?

For example, “Why is this guy talking so much?”
Something like that.

How about you, will you let this slide?

He'll be dead meat.

[RIP]

Jung Min.

You said you'd approach them first!

Just straight-up dead meat?

He'll be split into pieces.

[Pinggyego!]

[Sung Hwa, father of three children]
You have three kids? Sons?

Two daughters and one son.

Two daughters and one son?

- How old is your first child?
- 12 years old.

The second and third are twins

and they’re fraternal twins, so they’re 8.

What kind of dad are you?

I’m so busy with performances

so when I get home
I don’t get to see my kids as much.

So, I try to be a considerate and
caring Dad as much as possible.

It would be bad to come back
after a long time, and scold them.

So I try to listen to their stories and be patient

even when they don’t listen.

When I finally get to see them after a long time

[Sneak peek of Sung Hwa as a caring dad]
I ask them very gently

“Is there anything you need?”

“Are you going through something difficult?”

[Dazzling sweetness]
I would ask things like that.

“Who’s your best friend?”

“Should I invite them to a performance?”
Something like that.

What a...

What a true musical dad you are!

[Everyday life infused with musical stage tones]
A real musical dad!

[Musical dad]
Come here, and I’ll open up a new world for you.

[Musical "Hero" number]
Who is the sinner?

[Suddenly, the performance starts]
Who is the sinner?

Who did this?

Who is the sinner?

[Original cast entrance, met with applause]

[Continued analysis of Sang Hoon as a father]
Sang Hoon seems like the type of Dad who'd be like

very accepting, no?

I am like that.

Sang Hoon

does almost all the housework!

He does?

From doing the dishes to taking care of the kids
he does everything.

He's really a super dad.

- And he’s really good at cooking.
- Sang Hoon is...

Yeah, he is. He cooks for the kids, too.

...Wow.

You didn’t see me in that way?

No, I haven't.

Hahahahaha.

I thought he was more of a carefree type.

[The reason for the unclear reaction]

[While poking his teeth]
Are you back from school?

[Jae Seok's guess about Sang Hoon]

[Sang Hoon, also a father of three]
Sang Hoon has three kids, too.

When the kids go to kindergarten or elementary
school, they have things like sports days, right?

[The finale of a sports day]
Adults also have relay races!

Oh, they do!

Then the announcer says

“Please don’t run too hard, everyone!
You’ll get hurt!”

As soon as the gun goes off
everyone starts running.

[The running track]
But the circle is small, right?

Everyone ends up running outside!

[Parents unable to resist centrifugal force]
They can’t beat the centrifugal force

so they start running outside one by one

[The body refuses to move as expected]
Then the second lap goes outside like this.

[Empathetic Hwang]

Falling down is no joke!

[Memories of childhood physical condition]
Even though they’re older now, they

[Parents running with thoughts in mind]
run based on memories of running back in school.

When they were younger, they were always

running around and playing.

Running wasn’t something
they really thought about back then.

But once they become adults
and start working or whatever

and haven’t run in a long time

they still try to run based on those old memories.

They get tense and with the childhood memory

they give orders to their feet.

[My foot...
Please show me the performance from back then!]

Trying to relive their old athletic performance.

- It’s impossible…
- The brain tells them to run!

[Legs refusing the command]
But their legs won’t follow through, so they fall.

- They fall.
- That’s why they fall.

Oh, yeah.

Right! Jae Seok’s son went to the same
elementary school as my Sehyun.

Oh, yeah!

[On the day of his son's school sports event]
When there are a lot of elementary school kids

If I show up, they all rush over to me
asking for photos and autographs.

[Physically exhausting, but does it anyway]
I can’t say no, so it gets really tiring.

Because there are just so many kids.

But then, suddenly!

Like a tidal wave of people...

They all scatter...

[Admiration]
It means Jae Seok has arrived.

[The cause of the tidal wave]
And in my mind, I was like

"Thank you, Jae Seok!"

- Wow... Jae Seok!
- After that

everyone just flocks to him
and they don’t come back to me.

[Passing the baton for a moment of relief]
I finally get a break...

[Waiting for Jae Seok
to show up at the sports day]

When will Jae Seok arrive?

So comfortable!

But then when everyone just leaves like that
don't you feel disappointed?

Nope!

[Not disappointed at all!]
It’s such a relief.

When Jae Seok shows up, I’m so grateful.

[Effect of Jae Seok's arrival at the sports day]
So they rush over to you when they see you.

That's hilarious.

So, what do you do on your days off?

Right now, I'm performing in "Aladdin" in Busan!

[Practicing for Mrs. Doubtfire from Mon to Thurs]
From Monday to Thursday, I practice

and then Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
I'm in Busan performing.

- Gasp...
- I think that's how my schedule will look.

[No breaks these days]
So I don’t really have any days off.

- No?
- Yeah.

[Sang Hoon focuses on practice without a break]
I love coming to the practice room.

It’s fun to eat with him

and joke around!

He's in the big practice room, and
I'm in the small one. We practice separately.

He says, "Let's go eat!"

[Usually have Korean buffet]
We go to the Korean buffet

and before we know it
our plates are like mountains.

Yeah, it does.

[The Korean buffet mountains]
It’s so delicious!

Honestly, for men, spicy pork is enough.

[The ultimate comfort food]
Spicy pork is all you need to finish a bowl of rice.

Soul food, right?

And Jung Min needs to have a spicy broth with it.

[Telling Jung Min's taste buds from Punghyang High]
Spicy broth, indeed.

Jung Min!

I learned something at a sundaeguk restaurant!

[Adds spicy sauce]
Add the spicy sauce

[with soy sauce]
then a soy sauce

[Lover of spicy sauces / extra chili peppers]
then he chopped chili peppers with scissors.

[Sincere about making a sauce]
He was making something.

I asked him what he was doing.

He told me to dip it.

[Crazy good]
It was so good!

Cutting chili peppers that thin is tough
it's not easy.

Even with a knife.

but with scissors, it’s a breeze!

[Master of cutting chili peppers with a scissor]
It means he did it a lot of times!

He kept making the sauce wherever we went!

[Obsessed with making sauce wherever he goes]

Even in Vietnam!

[Relentless sauce-making skills]

- Really?
- Yeah!

[It even continued in Punghyang High]
Even in Vietnam.

[After making the spicy sauce]

[He recommended to everyone]
Have some, it's good.

He loves sauces!

[Another nickname]
Sauce Hwang!

Hahahaha.

Sauce Hwang!

So you are together all day long these days, huh?

It's so much fun.

After we eat, I get sleepy.

He's already sleeping.

Now that I'm older, whenever I eat...

Yeah! I get really sleepy, too!

I just pass out right away!

[Totally relatable]
I don’t know why, it didn’t used to be like this.

After eating, if I do something else

I wouldn’t feel sleepy and
would get really focused, right?

But now, even if I do something else

[Unavoidable post-meal sleepiness]
The drowsiness just keeps coming.

If you fall asleep, the kids can't make a sound.

[Silence practice begins]
The kids can’t make a sound.

[Whoever makes a sound today can’t go home!]

- This guy is such a nuisance!
- They even play the piano quietly.

[Haha]

Oh, come on!

[Quiet practice so the
grand senior doesn’t wake up]

Quietly practicing.

- This guy is such a nuisance!
- See? I told you I wouldn’t do it!

[Sauce Hwang is so fun to pick on]

But then, if it’s too quiet

"Why can’t I hear the lyrics?"

[Pinggyego!]

Did you go on a vacation?

No, I haven't.

You couldn’t go because of rehearsals, huh?

Sung Hwa, you probably couldn’t go either!

After the Aladdin Seoul performance was over

before heading to Busan
I had about two weeks of free time.

Oh!

[Went on vacation to Bali]
That’s when I went to Bali!

- Bali is great, right?
- Oh! It was amazing.

In there...

We had our accommodation inside a zoo.

So when you open the window in the morning

you see giraffes walking by!

I’ve stayed in a place like that
in Taiwan before, too!

The giraffes were right there in front of me.

- The kids loved it.
- A giraffe?

You mean Gwang Soo?

[Dizzy hearing the name of his favorite bro]

Gwang Soo must be busy.

[From Bali to Taiwan]
All the way to...

[Giraffe Gwang Soo busy running]
To make you laugh.

The kids must love that.

They really liked it.

Wow! It must be expensive, though.

It its a bit pricy...

But it's not insanely pricy.

Wow...

You live a luxurious life, right?

Special deals were up!

[Magic word that opens wallets: Special Deal]

You can't miss a special deal!

[Suddenly curious]
What is your blood type?

- It's A!
- A.

[Can't go without asking MBTI]
What's your MBTI?

ENFP!

- How about you?
- I'm INFP.

Yeah, you seem like "I" type.

Yeah, I was "E" before

but now I am an "I."

I am ISFJ!

[We've already figured it out with Punghyang High]
You're definitely a "J"!

What was "J" again?

A planner!

When we went on that trip as Punghyang High
the production team gave us a guidebook

[More thorough than anyone in the group of "P"]
he thoroughly went through it.

["J" Jung Min makes a plan in advance]
In advance...

Yeah! I tend to do that.

Yeah, he was really thorough.

[He is thorough, but...]
He looks at it thoroughly...

[Correct!]
But he doesn't follow the plan, right?

["J" transforms into "P"
making quick decisions based on the moment]

It's like he's almost studying it!

[Genuinely attached to the guidebook]

But then as we went!

"Hey, how about this instead?"

[Plans go out the window as the
Hornet instinct kicks in]

[Admits straight away]
Right.

Even when we go to eat something!

We were supposed to go to that place...

"Hmm, that place looks good!"

[Instant change of plans]
Then we end up there.

That's why he has a nickname called Mr. Hornet!

[Perfectly nickname, burst of laughter]

[Now he gets his nickname]
Oh, so that's where Mr. Hornet came from.

Back in the day when I studied at school...

I would study hard.

I would have been fine if
I had just stuck to what I studied.

But instead, I'd do something else!

So I would get everything wrong.

Oh, hey, hahaha.

Doesn't that mean you didn't study?

Oh... So that means I didn't study, huh?

[Refer to EP.71 "Pocket is just an excuse"]
That's one of the worst study habits...

[You just keep drawing circles
while thinking about other stuff]

So, like, when you're solving a math problem...

Problem: Explain the range from here to here.

And you're like
"What was the kanji for range again...?"

Hmmm... I don't think that's the case.

- Thank you!
- Hahahahaha!

What’s attractive about him, though...

- What is it?
- His voice is really good.

When the voice sounds good
it makes you trust them!

It makes you focus.

But he always says something that lacks trust.

Hahahahaha.

Right.

So I can't stop him in the middle!
Because he sound so good!

Sung Hwa has a way he laughs, too.

[Shoulder-dislocating laugh]

Hahahahaha.

You see right through him!

[Back to the voice topic]
I don’t want to sound like this either...

[But now the voice just stuck with him]
But it's just stuck with me now.

That happened over time, right?

Yeah, I think so.

Even with other people around
I say the same "Hello."

"Hello."

But that's how people hear it.

Your vocal projection is probably

so set to musical tone.

Yeah, people think I do that on purpose.

But it's just my regular voice.

But when people who does musicals

[Ordering with musical tone]
order something in the restaurant...

They really do it like this.

It’s true! People who do musicals and opera

have a bit of that too.

Madam.

We need a menu over here.

[His voice that makes everyone focus]
Please.

What's good here?

[As if a musical note would begin]

Three portions of Bulgogi, please.

In the Bulgogi...

Do you really have to talk like that, all greasy?

[A tone that comes out naturally]
A lot of people actually do it like that.

For that person

- it's nothing greasy.
- It's just the tone.

Excuse me!

If we do this, even when the place is loud

the sound strikes through.

Whenever I say something
people say I sound like I'm swearing.

[Everyone is surprised by the sudden confession]
Whatever I say, they say it sounds like I'm swearing.

[Loves Jung Min's angry tone]
Yeah?

- Other people said that?
- Yeah.

[Totally understandable]
They just get the impression that I’m swearing.

All he said to me was to stop eating.

"Don't you dare start eating!"

That's how it sounds, huh?

Try saying "Don't rest!"

"Don't rest!"

[Totally get the angry tone]

It does sound like that.

It's actually an expression of affection.

He only does that

when he feels like he's close with the person.

[When he's awkward, he's like "Yeah..."]
He's always just like "Yeah..."

He doesn't do it at all.

[Polite mode]
Yeah, yeah.

- Even with his friends.
- He uses honorifics!

"Have you eaten?"

Sang Hoon...

Were your dimples always this deep?

[The dimples stand out today]
Is it deeper than usual?

They’re really deep today.

Did the makeup on this side turn out better?

[Impressed]

The dimples really stand out!
It’s almost like a well!

[Heading straight for the dimple well]

You could even pour water
into these dimples right now.

[Everyone’s checking out the dimples]
Were they this deep before?

- The left side doesn’t have much of a dimple...
- I don't.

- Yeah...
- Are you jealous?

- Are you...?

[Flustered]
I can't really give it to you...

[It wouldn't just pop out...]
I'm jealous.

I'm not jealous at all.

Then were you making fun of it?

[Our dimples will get hurt]
Why do you keep teasing me?

I was just caught off guard...

Because you asked me if I was jealous!

Because I wasn't at all...

[Sweet potato stick, nom]
So you are making fun of me.

- What else can it be?
- I wasn't making fun of you!

[Just out of curiosity]

[Switching the topic]
Did you have a nickname?

Dimples!

- Really?
- No.

[Lying in a trustworthy voice]
I'm sorry.

[Almost got tricked by the deep voice]

It doesn't really match with the way I look, but

my nickname is Dungfly!

[Unexpectedly surprising nickname]
Why?

I don’t know, they just call me Dungfly.

Maybe because I buzz around a lot...?

Why that nickname?

How about you, Sung Hwa?

I don't really have a nickname.
When I was young

When I was in 4th or 5th grade

that’s when videos started
becoming popular in Korea.

Back then, I watched a lot of Chinese movies.

[Totally immersed in Chinese films]
I got really into them

So I even wore Chinese kung fu clothes.

- You wore them?
- Yeah, I did.

So the kids called me Ding Shuanghua.

[Chung Sung Hwa became Ding Shuanghua]
Ding Shuanghua.

So, in front of the other kids

I would do martial arts moves!

I would walk around with nunchucks and everything.

And when the wind blew
my hair would fly in the air.

Then I would stop for a moment and

swear that I would never
use my martial arts on anyone…

I’d make promises like that.

[Not your typical school years]

You were a bit of a weirdo, weren’t you?

Sung Hwa!

You didn’t have any friends, right?

Oh, friends? Yeah, I had none...

But at one point, you know...

Back then, guys like Jackie Chan.

Yeah, right.

[Hong Kong martial arts films from the
1970s and 1980s were really popular]

Bruce Lee, those kinds of people…
There was a big boom in Chinese martial arts.

So, we bought martial arts books

like Tanglang Quan!

Right.

[Ding Shuanghua's demonstration]
When it says one goes this way

and two goes that way.

You actually learned it!

Hey, I’m not joking, but we

[Almost finished the snack already]
We had so many snacks.

It’s early in the morning, so...

Kinda running low on energy right now
and sugar levels are dropping...

We don’t even snack like this for PPL.

But this was such a good choice of snacks.

[Great snack choice]
They made a great choice.

The rice cake is delicious! Chestnut rice cake.

I tried the potato a little late
but it’s really good!

It's sweet potato...

Hahahahaha!

Just trust the voice!

[Trustworthiness doesn’t match the voice]
Only the voice... Everything else...

[Decalcomania]
Liar.

You must be doing a lot of shoulder exercises.

[Naturally doing shoulder exercises]
My shoulders feel stiff when I laugh.

This is what I’ve been thinking about lately.

The younger you are,
the more you tilt your head back when you laugh.

[Like this]
Like this?

Why is that?

So when you get older, you laugh like this?

I'm not sure.

But kids laugh like this, right?

Oh, they kind of lean back when they laugh.

So, the other day while we were recording

our writer, who’s probably in her early 20s

was laughing and tilting her head back.

I laugh like that, too.

That's not how you do it!

No, when I laugh

I laugh like this!

[A very different vibe]

For real!

[Check at 9:05, no joke]
I do laugh like this!

So, to look younger
should I tilt my head back when I laugh?

[If you want to look younger
tilt your head back when you laugh!]

But the sound of the laugh doesn’t really match.

[Sound and action mismatch]
The head tilt doesn’t match the sound of the laugh.

This suits the shoulders.

It doesn’t match at all, it doesn’t fit!

Since our kids are all so young right now!

[What dads are bound to see at home]
You know, you hear it and you think of them.

The sound of kids laughing is so heartwarming.

- I feel so happy, too!
- Really happy.

Especially when they burst into laughter!

The youngest is in second grade

and the older ones are in fifth and sixth grade.

So now...

[The older kids are getting closer to puberty]
The ones above are getting into puberty

now that they are getting older.

And now that I think about it,
those laughs are different!

[The change in their laughter]
The second grader's laughs are like this...

[A little bittersweet]
It’s kind of sad that the sound of

their laughter is fading away...

How about you, Sang Hoon?
Did you go through a

pretty rough adolescence?

Oh, I think I went through it pretty hard.

- Really?
- Well, I...

I loved riding bikes

and I’d ride my bike around.

[Walkman is Cassette Player]
You know the Walkman, right?

I didn’t have a Walkman

but I had the headphones.

I guess I wanted to show it off to others.

I’d put on the headphones

[Pretending to listen to music from the pocket]
pretending I was listening to music with my pocket

humming along.

[Deep self-hypnosis]

Such a show-off!

But didn’t everyone do that back then?

You didn’t do that?

- To be honest...
- You also showed off at some point, right?

Yeah, I did.

Honestly, I really wanted a gold ring

[Too expensive for a student]
But since I didn’t have one

I think my friend gave me one or something.

If you clean a copper ring with toothpaste...

It kind of looks like gold!

The color comes out similar to gold.

But if you wear it for too long

it starts turning green around here.

[The metal corrosion from wearing it too long]
The copper starts to oxidize.

So, I’d keep cleaning that

[Puberty show off winning over metal corrosion]
copper ring non-stop.

How about you, Sung Hwa?

Well, I...

I used to attend church frequently at that time.

Since I was really involved in church activities

that phase kind of passed by.

[Overcame adolescence with faith]
I didn’t really have that phase.

But instead
I got in trouble a lot with my mom and dad

because I was going to church too often.

How often were you at church in a week?

I was there almost every day.

[Going straight to church after school]
So, you’d go straight to church after school?

Yeah, I’d go to church after school.

I was the president of
the middle and high school groups.

Oh.

I’d make shows for Literature Night.

Then I was in the Choral Group!

’d do all kinds of activities like that.

Really safe, actually.

How about your adolescence period, Jung Min?

Me? It just kind of passed by, nothing special.

Didn't you ever run away from home or something?
You kind of seem like the type to...

How did you know...?

See?

[Caught in a lie right away]
Why are you lying, saying it just passed?

Well, it was just...

I can sense that vibe from you right away.

Honestly, I don’t think it was

really a teenage phase thing.

I didn’t run away because
I had a fight with my parents.

[Just a teenage runaway]
I just ran away.

Where did you go?

[Students from Masan went to Busan]
I went to Busan with my friend.

I didn’t have much money...
But my friend had a bit of cash.

We passed by this rice cake shop

and there was Rainbow rice cake, you know?

The irresistible freshly made rice cake]
It looked so good.

When it’s freshly steamed, it looks amazing.

[Proposing to buy the rice cake]
I was like, “Let’s get some Rainbow rice cake.”

But my friend didn’t want any.

[The friend with the money rejects]
He was the one with money.

So we had a fight.

And then we just parted ways
and I came back home.

[Runaway ended because of Rainbow rice cake]

Since that day

whenever he sees rice cakes...
He just buy them all.

[A childhood grudge]

[And today’s snack happens to be rice cakes]
That's why he had all the rice cakes today.

Only if that friend had the Rainbow rice cake...

We'd probably have had some left today.

Anyway, I went to high school...

[Then went to an art high school]
I went to an art high school.

Oh, you did?

All the things about the arts
was it about art history?

Learning that stuff was so interesting.

And since I liked drawing

Oh, you’re really good at drawing!

[Naturally, developed an interest in stage design]
That’s how I got interested in stage design

and it just developed from there.

Honestly, now that I’m talking about it

like Sung Hwa and Sang Hoon said

if that friend of yours!

If he bought the Rainbow rice cake

- we would have had more.
- Yeah!

Who knows how life might have changed?

It could have turned out well.

You could be running a rice cake shop

or maybe you’d be the captain of a ship in Busan.

But in the end
you probably would’ve still done acting.

- Of course, that's inevitable.
- He wouldn’t have been able to resist.

Anyway, Mrs. Doubtfire!

On July 23rd(?)

September...!

On July 23rd...

What’s July 23rd?

[Tickets are on sale now]
September 27th.

[From September 27th to December]
I'll do that again.

But since you're promoting it for us once more...

Of course, I should do it for you.

Honestly, I didn’t even know
when it was happening.

But you found out today!

Now you know!

It’s the 27th!

[Reinforcing the date]
It’s on the 27th.

That's your first show, Jung Min.

Really?

You didn't know that?

Oh my God... That's mad...

You're in big trouble.

Come on, Jung Min.

You weren’t planning to go
somewhere else on the 27th, were you?

You didn’t even know yourself, haha.

With Sung Hwa and Sang Hoon

it's a triple cast
so I'm really looking forward to it.

I guess I’ll have to go see it all.

Watching all three is a bit unrealistic, though.

[Compromising with two shows]
I’ll watch two.

[Settling for just one show]
I’ll watch just one.

Just watch the one with Sung Hwa.

Which one are you going to watch?

- Come when you have time!
- I’ll figure it out myself.

[I’ll decide based on the situation]

At times like that
not watching is the best option.

But still, we can’t miss it]
But I’ll still go.

[Strong triple cast lineup]
Mr. Hornet, Sung Hwa, and Sang Hoon are performing.

Please give a final message to everyone.

This time, we've prepared
so much more than the first run

so it’ll be smoother and more fun.

Please send out lots of love and attention.

Sounds good, Sang Hoon?

I'll try my best!

Wait... Could you do it with that(?) version?

[Immediately]

[Translation]
It’s at the Charlotte Theater!

The first performance is on September 27th.

Hwang Jung Min is performing the first show.

And the second one is... me!

[Clear Chinese and Korean mix]

[Additional request]
The third performance is by Chung Sung Hwa.

So, you should come see all three!

Please don’t miss it.

Last but not least, Mr. Hornet.

I really wanted to make sure
I thank all of Gyewon members.

Especially since we received
the Best Production Award.

Right.

Thank you so much for that.

And I want to express my gratitude to
the entire production team as well.

I’ll make sure to work hard
and prepare the performance well.

And of course

I’ll do my best not to cause any trouble.

Don’t forget, it’s the first show!

[He'll never forget now]
Yes, yes.

So today

[Rainy season, revisiting promise, the pre-meeting
is just an excuse. This is Jung Min's fourth time]

- It's his fourth time, but we didn't give this yet.
- Right.

Mr. Hornet's fee starts today.

[The coupon book is also being handed out]
Really?

Yeah.

[First-time gifts for Sung Hwa and Sang Hoon]
And here are gifts for the two of you.

Thank you so much.

Can I open it?

- You can open it.
- Really?

The wrapping is so pretty

it feels expensive.

You both like cooking and camping, right?

[Handy chopping board for camping]

I thought it was a ping pong paddle, haha.

I love this. Thank you so much.

[Jae Seok laughs at Jung Min]
Jung Min!

I can't really read this...

The writing on the bottom is hard to read.

What’s the "deserted island invitation" for?

Jung Min.

- It’s an invitation for you to come back.
- If I invite you, you’ll come, right?

Oh!

Don’t be shocked when you check your account.

Oh, really?

- A small appearance fee will be sent.
- Wow.

I’d like to thank the three of you and
all the Gyewon members for joining us today.

[See you again]
Bye!

Thank you.

That was hilarious.

Sang Hoon: Thank you.

Jung Min: I wouldn't have
done this well without you two.

Jae Seok: I'll be there for the show.

Sung Hwa: Are you going to stay here?

Jae Seok: No, I'm going to head out, too.

Jung Min: Tell Seok Jin and Sechan I said hello.

Okay.

Are you heading to practice again?

I don't have practice today
but I’m just going to the rehearsal room.

[Production: Antenna Plus
Mixing: Youth Sound]

[Pinggyego!]
