(The master beyond imagination...)

(is coming.)

(The special master you wouldn't believe...)

(until you meet him)

(Bonjour, Master.)

(The writer Koreans love the most)

(Before that,)

(blue eyes, doctor, and master?)

(Mr. Suncheon Country Bumpkin)

(Johnny's great achievements)

(The live legend's...)

(live eloquence)

If it runs out...

(The most live Korean taste)

That was really good.

(Mr. Suncheon Country Bumpkin's big love for Korean food)

I feel pity for foreigners who die without trying this.

(Pity for foreigners who die without trying this.)

(What do you call this in English?)

(That's a very difficult question.)

(Extremely humorous Suncheon Tour with Johnny)

Can you do this?

Chopping wood?

Do you chop wood?

Of course.

- You do? - You chop wood?

He's strong.

(Exclaiming)

Awesome.

He doesn't even have to warm up.

(Johnny's warm up)

If you keep going, it's really tough, isn't it?

Up to how many did you split before?

All day long.

- All day long? - Of course.

Come on.

I'd do it in the morning and pile them up.

I'd have lunch and do it again all afternoon.

But this type of wood is really easy.

Can you show us one more time?

- Is this... - This one is a bit solid.

Can you do it?

- Of course. - What?

You keep saying yes to everything.

- Are you sure you can do this? - That's...

That's almost as thick as the base.

(Snorting)

That's almost as thick as the support.

(Johnny magic)

You must be very strong to do that.

(Dumbfounded)

That's tough, and it's solid on the bottom.

He chops wood the best among all Americans I've seen.

- He's the best in the world. - He's the best in the world.

You remind me of a polar bear.

- Master... - Master...

I lost in the chicken fight earlier.

(If it was a bear fight, I won.)

He clearly chopped wood...

many times before.

You should try.

- What? - The oak tree.

It'd be dangerous.

(It'd be dangerous.)

- Try. - Try. You're going to do it anyway.

- Shall we? - Let's all try then.

Don't pick a thick one. Choose a thin one.

Choose the thin one if we're going to do it.

- It's so thick. - Goodness.

Master. Why are you so far away?

This is really hard.

The ax might fly. Be careful.

- Come here. - Let's be honest.

What do you think his chance of chopping it at once?

At once?

Half.

- Half? 50, 50? - Half? 50 percent?

(50 percent success, 50 percent fail)

He can never chop it at once.

Even Master couldn't...

What if I do?

- Your wish. - My wish?

Yes, but what if you don't?

(A wish)

If you don't, will you grant my wish?

(If he doesn't, he must grant Se Hyeong's wish.)

Okay. A wish.

- At once. - At once.

But splitting only the end doesn't count.

Why are there so many conditions?

We must follow the rule.

- Right in the middle. - Then it counts...

as long as I can split it with my hands after hitting.

Okay.

But anyone can split it with hands.

That wasn't manly at all to say that.

Stop grumbling.

I thought Yoo Hai Jin was here.

- I know. - I thought Yoo Hai Jin was here.

- Okay. - He can't do it.

- Don't pull. - It's impossible.

(He can't do it. It's impossible.)

(What's the result of Seung Gi's wood chopping?)

- That's... - Don't pull.

It's impossible.

- Well done. - Are you flustered?

(Well done.)

- Are you flustered? - It'll burn even until tomorrow.

- Even until tomorrow. - Then let me try.

No, no.

- I should try too. - No, that's not how it works.

- Let's make it fun. - What are you talking about?

- Come on! - Come on!

You're changing your words again.

It's over now.

- I do approve. - Okay.

- It's done now. - But I should get a chance too.

It's done now.

You're done, but you should give me a chance too.

- I get one wish. - Okay.

But you should still give me a chance.

Gosh. This is heavy.

- Goodness. - This is heavy.

(He's moving their competitiveness.)

- Here. - I should've picked this one.

(The log looks big.)

- That's totally dense. - Yes.

- I think that's basically the root. - Right.

- It's dense. - This is for a cutting board.

Here we go.

Is it the game king of Dongducheon...

or the shrewd man of Banghak-dong?

(The game king of Dongducheon or the shrewd man of Banghak-dong)

(The mighty deity of firewood, give me power.)

(He focuses on his fingers.)

Watch your feet.

I got it.

No.

You were supposed to rip with hands.

- That's... - You must rip with hands.

I ripped it with hands.

- But... - It was torn.

- It was torn. - No.

This is controversial.

Master. What do you think?

- Accept it. - It's accepted.

How about this? If you want to do this...

Why do we always compete?

- You started it. - This also works.

Since we...

My goodness.

- Chopping that piece? - No.

Right. Chop the base.

Since we chopped it...

Let's...

keep chopping.

You chop, then I chop next. We keep chopping.

(Se Hyeong suggests to keep chopping one piece.)

Just like the sand castle?

- That's right. - The last person...

- Whoever can't chop is out? - Yes.

- Okay. - Then Master will start it.

Master will start it. Master, you're up first.

- Yes. - Start.

- My goodness. - It didn't split.

(It didn't split.)

Embarrassed.

(But it's still amazing.)

This is when you can evidence...

the dexterity of Koreans.

(This is when you can evidence the dexterity of Koreans.)

Did you know that Koreans are known for their outstanding dexterity?

- We're very agile. - Of course I do.

- Do you know why? - Why?

- There's a reason behind it. - Really?

In Japan and China, they don't use metal chopsticks.

- They use wooden chopsticks. - Yes, they do.

But we use heavier ones.

Koreans use metal chopsticks which led them to have great dexterity.

- Metal ones require more skills. - That's true.

Korea is the only country that use metal chopsticks.

The rest use wooden ones.

(Now they know why Koreans have outstanding dexterity.)

So that's why.

That's why Korean doctors are the best when it comes to surgeries.

(According to Johnny, Korean doctors are the best at doing surgeries.)

That's right.

My goodness! Master Johnny!

You're so insightful.

- Just a bit of pressure will do. - Be careful.

(Instead of chopsticks, they resume the game with the axe.)

- I think I got the hang of it. - Be careful not to smash it.

Look how concentrated he is.

(The axe and I are united as one.)

Get me a thick one.

(He successfully split it into two pieces.)

Get me a thick one.

(There's a thicker wood on the left and a thin one on the right.)

- Get me a thick one. - Okay.

Get me the thick one.

- Let me go. - Get the thicker one.

- I want to last longer. - I don't want to.

- Just go grab a thicker one. - But I like that one.

(Seung Gi, please do me a favor.)

Get me the thick one. I want to last longer in this game.

(He finally grabs the thick firewood...)

Okay.

(and sets it for Se Hyeong.)

Okay.

- Look how thin it has gotten. - This is going to be difficult.

- But he seems experienced. - I know.

Okay.

- Okay. - My goodness.

- You barely made it. - Look.

Okay.

- Wait. You can't use your legs. - No legs!

They're part of my body.

(Laughing)

You can split it with your hands.

- Fine. I'll use my hands. - Okay.

(Let me show you my dexterity!)

That's going to be a tough one.

This is going to be tough.

I didn't know we would come this far.

Wait a minute.

This is going to be hard.

- There you go. - Good job.

(He flew like a butterfly...)

(and stung like a bee.)

(He split it in one shot.)

Good job!

(Way to go!)

The dexterity of Koreans!

(The dexterity of Koreans!)

That's good. That was impressive!

Goodness...

(The firewood has gotten so little.)

I'm good at making it stand.

That's right. You're good at balancing.

- You're good at balancing. - That's right.

Right.

He has great skills.

You have to do something for the show.

(Seong Jae has skills at balancing.)

(He won the License Contest.)

(Focused)

You have to make it stand, Seong Jae!

- Put something underneath. - Okay.

- My goodness! - Gosh!

(Seong Jae easily managed to do it with distinguished dexterity.)

Our members have the strangest talents.

Pose for celebration toward the camera.

(Mom, I'm on television!)

(That was impressive!)

- It's going to fly in pieces. - Just a light pressure will do.

This is your last chance.

- Can I just touch it slightly? - No, you can't.

Of course you can't.

Thank goodness he didn't accuse me for doing that.

He became very sensitive.

Since the slipper game,

he's become very competitive.

(His foot...)

(and his feelings were both hurt from the game.)

(Seung Gi especially laughed very hard at Se Hyeong.)

(Let me show you.)

(But I want to show you.)

(Please, I beg you.)

(No, you can't.)

He's representing Dongducheon.

This is your last change, okay?

HIs face isn't showing on the camera.

That's not his concern right now.

He thinks he's a lumberjack.

(That's not his concern right now. He thinks he's a lumberjack.)

(He missed it.)

(Screaming)

- Shouldn't I get one more chance? - No.

No, you can't.

You're not hurt. You fail.

Okay then.

(But I hurt my ego.)

Seung Gi is the winner!

- Let's head to the ondol. - Okay.

- Ondol? - Ondol.

In cold winter, they used to heat the floor of ondol...

- day and night. - Yes, I heard of that.

It's a relief that you know that.

(Ondol is an advanced floor heating system in Korea.)

(Master Johnny invites the members to his favorite place as a kid.)

It's been a long time since I've last smelled this.

Most people are familiar with high technology now.

(The ondol room has a nostalgic smell of grandparents.)

People nowadays have no idea how great this is.

The elderly will sit on the inner side of the room.

When the younger ones enter the room,

they wait until the elderly tells them to sit down.

- Sit down. - Can we sit down now?

- Sit down. - Thank you.

(The elderly tells them to sit down.)

Do the elderly take a seat away from the floor heater in the upper side?

- No, it's the opposite. - So the...

The upper side is cooler because it's further from the heater.

If the room was bigger,

there would be sweet potatoes in the upper side for storage.

In the 1960s when I was younger,

the power would frequently go out,

and I would fire a candle.

There was no television or the internet,

and the room was warm.

We would put a blanket on the floor...

(We would put a blanket on the floor near the heater...)

and the elderly would tell a story.

(Listening to the stories from the elders was the only entertainment.)

Nowadays,

I hear that I'm good at giving lectures.

It's because...

I've heard so many stories when I was little...

from the elderlies.

Did you usually listen to them here before you went to sleep?

It was time for listening carefully to the elderly.

From many things I've learned,

the most important are the morals.

That all happened at the warmer part of an ondol room.

So what are morals?

(What are morals?)

(Master Johnny's Moral Lesson)

Humans cannot behave a certain way.

(Humans cannot behave a certain way.)

You shouldn't behave a certain way.

The nature of humanity.

(The nature of humanity is the basis of the morals.)

The most important moral is this.

When someone goes against the rules and breaks the law,

even if that person doesn't follow the rules,

that's not an excuse for justifying your behavior to break the rules.

Remain as yourself.

(Remain as yourself.)

I grew up in a Christian background,

but the morals I learned in Jeolla ondol room...

were perhaps more influential than the ones from the church.

Goodness. That's amazing.

So when I look at Korea right now, there is no venue...

for the elderly and the younger generations to meet.

(The venue for communication between two generations have disappeared.)

- Do you understand? - Yes.

As a doctor, I evidenced...

the high suicide rate of the elderlies,

and I also see a lot of young people with no wisdom of life.

Perhaps it's because of the central heating system in Korea.

(Perhaps it's because of the central heating system in Korea.)

(Why on earth did the ondol disappear?)

I know. It's very different.

We call it the dining table education.

The lessons we learn from the elders at the dining table.

Since the ondol disappeared,

the only place a family can gather is the dining table when we eat.

(The education of becoming human that teaches the morals)

I also think that those lessons have taught me the manners...

and made me to become who I am nowadays.

(Those lessons became the foundation of setting the direction of life.)

(I became Mr. Suncheon Country Bumpkin through ondol lessons.)

I go to the public bath often.

There are a lot of elderlies in the public bath.

Then I become nervous as they remind me of older times at ondol.

When they ask me something, I would answer politely.

(Due to his older times, he still remembers the rules of etiquette.)

Even at my hospital, there are people who don't do greetings.

There are people who don't do greetings.

Then what do you say to them?

I would put them in an elevator with me that goes to the 20th floor.

(I'd put them in an elevator with me that goes to the 20th floor.)

I lock them there and repeat that twice,

then they come running to me to do the greetings.

Goodness.

(Instead of the ondol lesson, Master Johnny uses the elevator.)

As I'm talking to you,

it's very touching from time to time.

Even though we are Koreans,

we forgot how beautiful our culture is.

Hearing it from you...

makes me very happy, but at the same time...

- You reflect upon yourself. - I can reflect upon myself.

- It makes me feel embarrassed. - Also,

it reminded me of something that I forgot about.

(Love our culture.)

(Meanwhile,)

(a strange visitor is coming toward the ondol room.)

Hey, Johnny!

Johnny!

Are you inside?

We measured everything in ondol size.

Then we compared ondol rooms in different houses.

- Hey! - Yes?

- Johnny! Hey! - Yes?

(Is there a visitor at this time?)

Johnny!

(Frozen)

(Flustered)

Hey, Johnny!

(The stranger have arrived in front of the ondol room door.)

Johnny!

- Hey! - Yes?

- Johnny! - Wait! I'm not done talking yet.

(Wait a second!)

(The more he speaks, the more Korean he is.)

- Is it you, Sam Soo? - Yes.

Okay, wait a second.

Give me a minute and a half.

Is it the guy he told us just now?

Right, there's Young Soo, Sam Soo, and Bong Soo.

- And that's Sam Soo out there. - Yes.

(Not Young Soo, Bong Soo)

(I'm Sam Soo.)

(Kim Sam Soo, 63 years old, quite impatient and agreeable.)

(When is he coming out? It's driving me crazy.)

Hey!

- Hey! - And there's...

- What? - Hurry up.

All right.

- Hey! - It's irritable bowel syndrome.

- Hey! - And there's...

- What? - Hurry up.

All right.

Who would it be?

I think master loses to him when they fight.

My bad.

(It's fine.)

- You're here - Hello.

(Johnny's best friend came running when he heard he was in town.)

- Hello. - Hello.

I heard a lot about you.

You look a lot like my son.

Thank you.

You're bragging again?

(He teases right away.)

I'll show him soon. My son's handsome.

So...

What's his name?

It's Kim Sam Soo.

- Mr. Kim Sam Soo. - Yes.

(He's happy to see his friend although he talks harshly.)

- I brought your favorite meat, - Really?

- and some ripe kimchi. - That's great.

- Help yourself. - What's all this?

- Let's go. - Thanks.

It was nothing.

(Times have passed, and they've gotten older.)

(But with a best friend,)

(it feels like you're back in the past again.)

(I miss my friend too.)

Is Master Johnny older than you?

- No, I'm younger than him. - I'm older.

- But you didn't use honorifics. - I'm just being rude to him.

Five years gap doesn't count...

around here.

We're not 5 years apart, we're about 2 years apart.

- I kept talking to him like this, - But...

so we became friends.

Even though we're friends,

he still uses honorifics to my wife.

Of course.

Since when were you guys friends?

It's complicated. It was...

- It's complicated. - We have to...

go back down to the 50s to tell you the story.

- To the 50s? - Yes.

- To the 50s? - Right.

Sure.

- Yes. - Wasn't that...

when you were born?

Right. We were close...

since I was like three years old.

(Johnny and Sam Soo go back 59 years.)

(They would know everything about each other.)

But I'm still suspicious of him.

(What?)

Considering how we behaved since when we were little,

he's not qualified to be a doctor.

- They're really close. - Right.

- They're so close. - I mean...

you don't know who he is.

When people want to be a doctor,

they keep distance with their friends,

- and focus on studying. - Right.

But he never did that.

- You kept hanging around with him? - Yes.

(His best friend still sees him as a naughty boy from the past.)

I still can't admit it.

- My goodness. - What can't you admit?

I still can't admit that he's a doctor.

- He's an important figure in... - That's pure nonsense.

(That's pure nonsense.)

(These are things real friends tell you.)

He's not helping.

Was he mischievous back then?

He was beyond mischievous.

He was... When you look at him,

he was too much. That's not mischievous.

What pranks did he pull?

People dug out ditches next to the roads,

so that water can flow there,

and he put poop in there.

(He put poop in there.)

Oh, boy.

He put poop...

in there...

and covered it with dust.

People have to step on those at night.

He did it with me.

(It's a counterattack.)

That's why I can talk about these.

Were you trying to stop him?

- Like, "Don't do it" - No.

No, we had to do everything together.

(They were best friends and accomplices.)

That would have been fun.

What other pranks are there?

When we were little,

we went to bow on New Year's Day. But what he did first is...

counting the money.

If he's going to 30 different houses...

- Did he have a goal amount? - Right.

That's right.

But he...

But don't people go to bow just for the relatives?

We don't need relatives.

This whole town is full of them.

All the grandmothers,

they all loved him.

They didn't see him as an American. He was a grandson to them.

- When he met them... - Yes.

on the street,

and they mention the New Year's bow,

he pulled out some newspapers and bowed to them on the spot.

He carried them around instead of a mat.

He used newspapers as the mat.

- You were quite smart. - You must have loved New Year's.

I was smart in a bad way.

What did you do with the money you got then?

I used to buy the jawbreakers.

- The jawbreakers. - And...

About the jawbreakers,

we used to smash about four of them with a rock,

- because it wasn't enough. - You were trying to share.

We gave bigger pieces to the ones we liked,

and small pieces to the younger ones.

That's how we did it.

- You shared with everyone. - Of course.

(Johnny and Sam Soo are...)

(best friends that shared a piece of candy.)

That must have been fun.

Are the foods that you brought...

the things he usually likes?

Yes, he just loves meat...

and ripe kimchi.

- Ripe kimchi? - Yes.

We heard about that.

- Yes. - Let's try it.

What's this drink? Is it barley tea?

- That's sweet rice drink. - It's sweet rice drink!

- I love sweet rice drink. - Yes.

(Let's taste the food he brought.)

It feels like I'm at my grandmother's house.

Right. It does.

(They sit on a wooden bench listening to the sound of bugs.)

- Take a seat. - Take a seat.

- There's the sweet rice drink. - Wow.

Sweet rice drink.

It's also called "gamju".

- Gamju? - Yes.

Here are the ones for you.

(They give the elderly first even for a cup of drink.)

It looks really good.

(When the elderly take a sip...)

It looks really good.

(It's refreshing.)

This is homemade.

(It's very refreshing.)

- Right. - By the way...

I have to be excused about one thing today.

In Suncheon, you have to use swear words.

You know, to express things.

The hardest thing today was not being able to swear.

(Swear words between friends are merely interjections.)

Let me say one swear word.

You see, I'm a churl.

Yes.

Being a churl is a good thing.

- A churl. - Why is that?

Being a churl is the best.

Why is it good?

It means you're well-informed and good with relationships.

- That's what a churl is. - You churl.

When we talk normally,

we say, "You churl. Why are you doing that?"

- That's what we say. - Right.

- And that's not fighting? - Not at all.

- You stupid. - They're just being friends.

"You stupid," means "I love you."

I love you.

- Right. - Goodness.

We say, "Stop fooling around, you weirdo."

"That doesn't make sense."

What does that mean? "Stop fooling around, you weirdo."

It means you're off track.

It means, "Get back on track."

(Laughing)

He said, "Get back on track."

- "You weirdo." - My gosh.

"You're off track."

"Get back on track."

- That's really... - "You're off track."

- "Get back on track." - That's tougher than Seo Jin's.

That's tougher than Seo Jin's language.

This is going to be a buzzword.

Among medical terms,

- Medical terms? - when you get typhoid,

it causes septicaemia because there are germs...

in your blood vessel when there shouldn't be any.

And then people say,

"you're acting like a person with typhoid,"

- in Jeolla dialect. - Right.

It means you're losing your hair...

and you have fever, so you're acting crazy.

That what it means?

It's a medical term.

- That was a medical term? - That's what it means.

Then...

- "A person with typhoid." - So that's a type of disease?

- That means typhoid. - It's typhoid.

(It means typhoid in common parlance.)

Then what does, "This is nuts," mean?

- "This is nuts?" - Or "I'm going nuts."

It means your intestines are twisted.

- Your intestines... - So your intestines...

- are celebrating? - No.

It twisted, so it's painful.

("This is nuts.")

That's what it meant?

That refers to...

- It's a medical term. - a patient's condition.

"This is nuts."

Right.

- It's tough to say these on... - Hey.

We have tough students today.

People from Jeolla Province will...

still understand even if we don't explain it.

- Right. - This is nuts.

That's...

That's how you use it.

- "This is nuts." - I've been listening,

and you must not like the word, "Jeolla dialect".

- It's Jeolla standard language. - It's Jeolla standard language.

- I've noticed... - Right.

that a lot of words we use are...

- from Jeolla standard language. - That's right.

When I think about it,

a big part of Jeolla Province is the language.

- The language. - The language.

I've been listening to him,

and I feel like I want to learn more.

You guys have the note, right?

Bring it to me.

You told them to make a note?

Yes, I asked them.

(What is that?)

(This is what master asked the staff earlier.)

(Is that the exam paper?)

What's this? What does this mean?

What's this?

You say that...

- when you ride something. - All right.

(Jeolla Province dialect shaped the master's identity.)

- Let's be done with that. - Okay.

(I will show you the true Jeolla Province dialect.)

It's...

- It's... - What's this?

This means...

(The questions are ready.)

You two will give the questions, right?

Let's do that.

(It begins.)

(Listen to Master Johnny's sentence and guess its meaning.)

Okay. Let's give it a try anyway.

(He's fearless.)

(Smirking)

You can be comfortable.

I think Seong Jae is...

- Me? - Yes.

(What about Seong Jae?)

He's got gwin.

- Has he? - Yes.

- "He's got gwin"? - What?

"Gwin".

(Listen again carefully.)

- "He's got gwin"? - "He's got gwin"?

"He's got gwin"?

- "He's got gwin"? - I got it.

- "He's got gwin"? - I got it. It means he's cute.

(Does it mean he's cute, like Sang Yun says?)

I think it's right.

Seong Jae...

(I think Seong Jae is...)

(cute?)

No. No way.

(He got it wrong.)

(Thank goodness.)

- Gwin... - "He's got gwin."

Can you say it with the proper accent?

You say it again.

Should I? Gosh.

"Should I? Gosh."

(He's cute.)

He's got gwin.

He's really got gwin.

(He's really got gwin.)

Seung Gi.

It means he's handsome.

(Does it mean he's handsome?)

It's somewhat similar.

(It's somewhat similar.)

- I got it. - I got it.

(Se Hyeong gives it a try.)

It means he's actually more charming in person.

(He's actually more charming in person.)

(Does "gwin" mean "charming" then?)

(Okay. Okay.)

- Okay. Okay. - Okay.

(Se Hyeong is very thrilled.)

Gosh.

"Gosh."

Why is it so difficult to get one answer?

Wait. He's got gwin means...

that he's more charming in person.

- He's charming. - He's charming.

"He's got gwin."

- I had no clue. - I had no clue.

Gosh...

Okay. Let's do this now.

(It's difficult.)

This is the second question.

You say this when you are riding a swing.

(Listen to Sam Soo's sentence and guess it's meaning.)

Riding a swing again is so hosup.

(Riding a swing again is so hosup.)

- "Hosup". - I got it.

It means you are dizzy.

(Seung Gi says it means you are dizzy.)

(Riding a swing again is so dizzying?)

- Not even close. - No.

- "Not even close." - "Not even close."

- That wasn't even close. - It's so "hosup".

- "Hosup". - So...

if it's too far off the answer, he'd say, "Not even close."

- Right. Right. - "Hosup".

- "Hosup". - "Hosup".

- It's "hosup". - I got it.

- Riding a swing again... - Riding a swing...

- is hosup. - reminds you of old times.

You are not even close.

(You are not even close.)

(He got it completely wrong.)

I got it.

It means it's fun.

(Sang Yun thinks it means "fun".)

You got it.

(He got it.)

- What? - He got it. He got it.

- He got it. - He got it.

- You just got it like this? - Was it that simple?

- It's... Wait. - How do you use it in a sentence?

You are not very impressed that he understood Jeolla dialect.

You don't shout, "You got it!"

We never make a fuss.

(They never make a fuss.)

We never do.

Is it "hosup"? "Hosup"?

- Hosup. - Hosup.

Riding a bike again is hosup.

It's very hosup. Right. That's when you say it.

- Hosup. - It's difficult.

All right. Is that the last question?

- Yes. It's the last question. - The last question.

I am going to get this one. I got the most number of answers.

(It looks as if...)

(they are giving questions for college entrance exam.)

- Next question. - All right.

I will give you the question.

(The last question is a trick question.)

How can you say "That's a camel going through a needle's eye"?

How do you say that in Jeolla Province dialect?

- That's really difficult. - "That's a camel going through..."

- "a needle's eye". - I got it. "You're mad."

That's...

You're mad... It's similar. But it's not that at all.

(It's not that at all.)

(It's similar, but it's not that at all?)

I got it.

"How can a camel go through a needle's eye?"

- What is it? - How can it?

How can it?

I got it.

"The camel is doing that."

It is doing something.

But it can't go through the needle's eye.

I got it.

"You are talking nonsense"?

(Come on, Seong Jae.)

You got it.

"It can't be done. Why are you talking nonsense?"

You got it.

"A camel going through needle's eye" means...

it will never work.

- "It can't be done." - That's it.

- Is that it? - That's it.

(Is it over...)

(like this?)

- You are very calm. - It won't work.

(You can't get calmer than this.)

(It won't work.)

"It won't work."

Seung Gi, you got no answer right.

Why won't you help the master?

I will be your assistant.

- Great. - You should study.

We can rest now, right?

- You can take rest. - Okay.

- Okay. - And Sam Soo has to go.

- Thank you. - Thank you for your help.

Thank you for reading the questions in a tasteful way.

What are you saying?

(It means he had a lot of fun too.)

All right.

- Well done. - Bye.

- Bye. - I will see you later.

(I will see you later.)

He's very calm.

Please prepare the food.

Master Johnny and I will.

(Another master with blue eyes awaits SangSeungHyeongJae.)

(Is he speaking French this time?)

You could use our names in your novel.

(Will the members' names be...)

(in the master's novel?)

(If you want to be chosen,)

(follow the master.)

(Are we following well?)

(Should we try hypnosis?)

(They follow the master into the world of hypnosis.)

(He's got a lot of hair.)

(Is he a native man?)

(Shortly, the most creative master is coming soon.)

(It's the quiet night of Suncheon.)

(Which dish did Master Johnny prepare?)

What are we having today, Master Johnny?

We are going to have a special dish...

(A special dish?)

I came up with.

It's...

Is this your secret recipe?

I'm the first to cook this.

- Are you really the 1st? - I'm the 1st.

I'm the only one in this whole world who can cook this.

(He's the only one in the world who can cook it.)

(You won't find this one and only dish elsewhere.)

(Ripened kimchi, bacon, onion, and egg)

(The ingredients for this special dish are very simple.)

(What's the world's 1 and only dish?)

But it's hard for a dish to be completely unique.

Watch me.

(What's the world's 1 and only dish?)

(It looks dangerous.)

- Watch your hand. - It's fine.

- You don't need a special skill. - Right.

(He bites his lips.)

You have to mince it finely.

(It's not his 1st time to use knife, is it?)

It's a special dish I came up with.

You don't actually need a lot of bacon.

Before this...

You don't actually need a lot of bacon.

(He stops slicing onion and grabs bacon.)

You just need about two slices of bacon.

"You just need about two slices of bacon."

- Do you want one more? - It's fine.

It's not good if you add too much of it.

(Pressing)

This is not sliced.

(Why is he suddenly turning on the stove?)

(This is not sliced.)

Wait. Wait.

The pan has to be heated first.

You are very impatient, aren't you? You just turned on the stove.

It's exciting.

It's not excruciating. It's exciting.

- It's what? - It's exciting.

It's exciting. That's what you said.

Right. Right.

(It's a funny joke.)

I normally chop it finer.

- Should I stir-fry it? - Right. Stir-fry it.

(Put the crudely chopped bacon in the pan and fry it.)

Do it while I am slicing things.

We added bacon first.

It doesn't really add much to the dish.

- It's for the oil. - It's for the oil.

That's right.

Oil's coming out.

Are you cooking...

(What can he cook with these ingredients?)

stir-fried kimchi?

Wait and see.

(Just wait and see.)

(To find out about this 1 and only dish in the world,)

(stir-fry the bacon.)

(It is a special dish, right?)

Don't be impatient like me. Wait.

(You shouldn't hurry to cook Johnny's special dish.)

(He feel anxious.)

Mince it well.

(Pressing)

(Gently pressing)

You know you are just pretending to mince it well, don't you?

You know that, right?

No, this is minced well.

Don't burn it. Lower the fire.

(He gives order to Seung Gi.)

You won't tell me what we are cooking, right?

You have to wait a little more.

It's a top secret.

(It's a top secret.)

(It's really a secret recipe.)

(The minced onion is in.)

- Okay. - Okay.

- I will stir-fry it rhythmically. - That's right.

Fry it until it turns yellow.

(Fry it until it turns yellow.)

(Now, let's go with the main ingredient.)

(Get out a handful of kimchi.)

That's it. Well done.

That's it.

(And...)

(Chopping...)

(clumsily)

(Chopping clumsily)

I am curious.

It doesn't seem like we're cooking stir-fried kimchi.

You'd chop the kimchi more coarsely for stir-fried kimchi.

(Chop the kimchi finely.)

(Looking)

Do you cook often?

I don't cook often.

(He doesn't cook often.)

But when I cook, I try to cook well.

(I will cook it well. Don't worry.)

Common cockle is the delicacy of Jeolla Province.

- Common cockle shabu-shabu? - It's the best.

(Johnny's favorite is cockle shabu-shabu.)

- It's a winter delicacy. - In winter.

The second best is cuttlefish.

(Johnny's second favorite is cuttlefish.)

- Cuttlefish. - I like it steamed.

I dip it in chojang.

Cuttlefish is really delicious.

How do you say it in English?

He keeps asking me to say things in English.

(He doesn't like speaking English.)

(Why do you keep asking a Korean to speak English?)

They've been asking me to speak English all day today.

(Why do you keep asking a Korean to speak English?)

Good job.

(Finely chopped ripened kimchi is added.)

Can you tell me what we are cooking now?

Soon.

- Soon? - It's not the time yet.

This is so frustrating.

(He's got an upset stomach when he didn't even eat.)

Hurry. Hurry.

(Are we going to be eating within the day?)

(Crack eggs.)

Eggs?

(Crack eggs.)

(Bacon, onion, and ripened kimchi are fried together.)

This is...

The smell would...

attract all the dogs in town.

Of course.

(I'm here.)

Just adding rice to this would be delicious enough.

No. No.

(You can never do that.)

You have to fry it some more.

(It's a secret dish that will surprise the universe.)

It'd be delicious if we add a little bit of kimchi juice to it.

- No? - No.

- You are very certain, aren't you? - I am.

(What is he cooking with such conviction and philosophy?)

Let's transfer it on here for now.

(He transfers it on the board.)

Let's transfer it.

- You will transfer it there? - Yes. I have to.

Now, I will tell you what it is.

Come on out, churls.

(Breaking news! A special recipe will be revealed.)

That was a praise.

Is it done?

It's nearly done.

He's going to tell us what it is. He hasn't told me yet.

Did you come up with the recipe?

- Come and see it. - Okay.

I will tell you what it is.

(He will tell them which dish he's cooking.)

(What's the universe's...)

(1 and only...)

(secret dish...)

(he's cooking?)

It's ripened kimchi omelet.

- Ripened kimchi omelet? - Kimchi omelet?

- Ripened kimchi... - That must be delicious.

I've never heard of ripened kimchi omelet.

That must be delicious.

(Sour ripened kimchi...)

(and soft omelet became one?)

When you eat omelet... Excuse my language.

You smell like an egg.

- It's greasy. - Yes. It's greasy.

The ripened kimchi...

removes that egg smell.

(The ripened kimchi makes it not greasy.)

It's not...

(It's not...)

greasy at all.

It's a perfect fusion dish.

I've never heard of ripened kimchi omelet.

What do I do?

Fold it.

- Should I fold it? - Fold it.

(You can fold it like this.)

Shape it.

Shape is important too.

(It looks like he cooked it clumsily,)

He looks very clumsy,

but it's got a nice shape.

Turn off the stove.

Bring a plate. Let's taste it.

(Let's taste it now.)

It looks a bit like kimchi jeon.

It looks a bit like rolled egg too.

(It looks similar to kimchi jeon and rolled egg.)

It looks delicious.

(It's the world's one and only ripened kimchi omelet.)

(It's nice and golden.)

My mouth is watering.

- It looks delicious. - It looks really good.

Ripened kimchi omelet.

Ripened kimchi omelet.

(The world's one and only ripened kimchi omelet)

- Enjoy. - Enjoy.

(It's Master Johnny's 1 and only dish in the world.)

- I am hungry. - I am quite hungry.

- Did you think of it and try... - I gave it a try.

(He cooked it out of curiosity and ended up with the recipe.)

(How does it taste?)

[VIU Ver] E75 Master in the House / All the Butlers "Master of Imagination" -= Ruo Xi =-

(Everyone reacts like an American.)

The ripened kimchi suits nearly every dish.

(Ripened kimchi and omelet go perfectly together.)

This is amazing.

This is amazing.

It's perfectly seasoned.

It would be delicious if we put cheese in it.

You can add salt to season it.

But in Seoul, people don't eat that salty.

But it's okay to make it a little saltier.

This is...

- It's delicious. - They go so well together.

Right.

(You can easily make this dish with just 4 ingredients.)

You just need ripened kimchi.

(You can easily make this dish with just 4 ingredients.)

- It's really good. - Yes. It's really good.

There's bossam too?

Eat it with a piece of ripened kimchi.

(His best friend Sam Soo prepared ripened kimchi and bossam.)

(Everyone tries it.)

It's homemade doenjang.

The meat is so tender.

(The ripened kimchi omelet and bossam go perfectly together.)

Master Johnny.

(It's the best.)

Jeolla Province has the best ripened kimchi.

(Ripened kimchi goes well with everything.)

This is too good.

No wonder you get spoiled by Suncheon's food.

I know.

Why is this bossam so good?

(While they are eating quietly...)

I'm glad my ripened kimchi omelet is received well.

- It's so good. - It's so good. It's finished.

I am happy.

(Laughing)

(However)

Nothing makes sense right now.

It's June, and we are burning firewood.

He's Korean, but he's a foreigner.

We are staying at a thatched house.

It's an omelet, but it's got ripened kimchi inside.

It's even good.

We are being told about Korea.

- Right. - It's very strange.

(Things that seem different came together on this mysterious night.)

Now, let's talk about your assignment.

(Now they're done eating, he will check the homework.)

He's the 1st in 5 things.

(The best qualities of Koreans shaped the master as who he is.)

(What are those best qualities?)

First...

First...

(I will become the 1st in something using this quality of Koreans.)

I know what are the best qualities of Koreans.

But it's very hard to become first in something.

The three of us kept talking about it in there.

(It wasn't easy to figure out even when they came together.)

I've always thought of this.

I think the best quality of Koreans...

is the Koreans themselves.

Koreans have achieved...

unbelievable things in the world.

(The driving force is the Koreans themselves.)

(Director Bong's "Parasite" Wins The Palme d'Or.)

(He surprised the world...)

(with the work the world has never seen before.)

In every field,

they had to blaze the trail,

and they achieved great things.

It was possible through their own strength and hard work.

So I think people are the strength of Korea.

(Koreans are the strength of Korea.)

I agree.

I think the best quality of Koreans...

which also became the driving force of Korea's rapid development...

is the impatient nature.

(We always hurry.)

Koreans work so intensely and so hard.

- Koreans do. - Right.

We work a little more than people from other countries.

We have the desire...

to achieve things a little faster.

Using that as my strength,

I will become Korea's first celebrity...

who's worked on 1,000 works.

(He will use his strength as a hard-working Korean.)

- Has nobody done that? - It can be any work.

It could be a variety show, a drama, a film, or an album.

1 album counts as 1 work.

You will have a comprehensive portfolio.

When you search my name,

there will be a list of 1,000 works I've worked on.

I will be the first celebrity to do that.

(To work on 1,000 works...)

I don't know until what age I would have to work to do that.

Until you're 230 years old.

(You must live long.)

I think you need to change it.

(Did he find a fault?)

- Why? - I am going to work on 1,001 works.

(He's very competitive.)

But if he does 1,000 works 1st, he will be the 1st.

- If I do 1,000 works 1st... - You can be the 1st...

to do 1,001 works.

Right.

You are wise as always.

So...

(You are wise.)

I will do my best with that spirit. I will enjoy it.

(Seung Gi resolves to continue to work hard.)

I think Koreans work hard and play hard.

Koreans are the only ones who play until morning.

- But... - Where did you...

hear the expression "work hard and play hard"?

Yes. I heard it in a song. It goes, "Work hard play hard".

Very clever. Nice one.

That's my life motto as well. Work hard and play hard.

There are so many things I can do at this age.

I don't want to miss them.

So I want to play hard. When I play hard,

I feel like working hard. It makes me focus on work.

I want to maintain a healthy balance...

and become the first idol singer to receive a Grand Award...

at SBS Entertainment Awards.

I want to give it a try.

(Let's play harder!)

I am still his role model.

(I am still his role model.)

You should've told me.

Seong Jae.

When he was telling us about Suncheon, he told us...

about ondol...

and so many things that make Korea good.

He kept telling us about our culture and good things about Korea.

And that really touched our hearts.

That made me think that we should know more about Korea.

I could be the first actor to have toured around...

(He will study the best qualities of Korea on the trip.)

the entire nation.

I could give that a try.

("Lee Sang Yun Becomes the First Actor to Have...")

("Toured Around the Entire Korea")

- That's a great idea. - That's a great idea.

My little brother is also a comedian.

He's in the show called "Running Man".

He's a very famous comedian.

I want us to be the first comedian brothers...

to be nominated for the same award...

in the same category.

(They can be the 1st brothers to be nominated for the same award.)

- That's never happened before. - That's never happened before.

- I... - For the same award.

- For the same award. - He will be your competitor.

There would be a few more people aside from us.

My brother and I would be...

staring at each other.

I think that would be really fun.

That would be thrilling even for the people watching it.

(The brothers' dream thrills us.)

SBS Entertainment Awards.

(Se Hyeong and Se Chan could be nominated for the Grand Award.)

- Even for the people watching it. - That would be amazing.

You've already achieved a lot.

But do you want to be...

first in anything else?

(In what does he want to be the 1st?)

I want Korea to be...

the 1st in the medical field.

(He wants to help Korea become the 1st in the medical field.)

("Korea Is the World's Best for Medical Tourism")

("More Foreign Tourists Come to Korea to Find Health")

("After K-Pop Wave, There's Korean Medical Wave")

Because we use steel chopsticks,

Korean doctors are smart and dexterous.

When it comes to surgeries, Korean surgeons are the best.

Right.

I hope many people will come to Korea to cure...

their terminal illnesses and incurable diseases.

How nice would it be if they can go back home in good health?

(He hopes more people will come to Korea for cure.)

"I was terminally ill, but Korean doctors saved me."

"I'm so grateful to Korea."

"I'm so grateful to Koreans."

(He wants the world to be grateful to Korea.)

Many countries have not changed for 100 years.

(Many countries haven't developed in 100 years.)

Korea has changed the most.

It's the best in the world.

(It's the best in the world.)

It's such a great country.

But what makes me sad is that Koreans don't...

acknowledge how good their country is.

(While living in such a great country, we forget how good it is.)

People really don't know.

When a Korean person praise Korea...

for being good, it's not convincing.

But when I say it, people would believe it more.

You've already convinced us.

We are Koreans, but when you said it's a great country,

we thought to ourselves, "Right. It's a great country."

It's the best.

(Right. Korea is the best.)

You know this happened many times today.

- Right. - He was joking,

but we took it so seriously.

I think you are so naive.

(Shortly, they will meet another blue-eyed master.)

When I retire and move to Suncheon,

(When SangSeungHyeongJae comes to Suncheon...)

I will wait for you with widely opened doors.

- Come visit me anytime. - We can have a barbecue party.

- We can have a barbecue party. - Thank you.

We will come.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Is anyone home?

Is anyone home?

Perhaps the doors are automated?

Is anyone home?

(They come in through the heavy gate.)

Hello.

- It's a lovely place. - Hello.

It's a nice place.

It's a tile-roofed house.

Did we move from a thatched-roof house to a tile-roofed house?

- It's as if we've risen in status. - Right.

Are we meeting another foreign master?

You know.

I know.

But it's been even more upgraded.

When I heard the name of the master...

My gosh.

- It's... - For the first time,

- we know exactly who the master is. - We all know.

Did you really manage to get him?

- Did you... - Did he say okay to everything?

Actually, as you all know, today's master is...

an internationally-renowned author.

He is really...

(He nods.)

(Is the master's reputation in the world...)

(great enough to amuse the members?)

Wait. By the way...

- I know. - I am really curious.

Why did you tell us?

They always keep it a secret from us.

- Right. - Right.

Did you do that because we might not know who he is?

You didn't do that because we might not know him, did you?

But did you guys know who he is before they told you?

- Gosh... - I knew his name.

- Hey. - I...

- What's fascinating is... - Be honest with me.

I don't care if it doesn't go on air. Did you really know him?

- I... - You didn't know him, did you?

I used to read so much when I was in middle school.

I recognized his name.

(Well...)

I recognized his name.

- I... - I...

Honestly, how many of his books have you read?

I've read his most recent book.

- Even before? - What?

Really?

He looks different.

Why would I look different? I only read that one.

(That's nothing.)

There are three books.

No, there are two books.

(There are only 2 books.)

- Seong Jae. - Perhaps...

one was a prequel.

- Did you read any of his books? - I read that.

I only know his name.

But my mother is a big fan of him.

So I heard about him from my mom.

She kept telling me to read his books.

- I read that one. - Which one?

This one.

(Seong Jae read one of the master's works.)

Yes.

I read about 0.8 book.

- Why only 0.8? - I was reading in the bathroom.

(Seong Jae says it's perfect to read in the bathroom.)

We made today an exception...

and told you ahead of time who the master is.

- So there's no hint giver. - Right.

Why don't you come up with witty hints?

We have to give the viewers hints?

The most important is...

that the hint has to be fun.

It has to make people curious.

Or it has to be a clear fact.

There's something...

I heard.

I couldn't remember the numbers.

So I wrote them down.

- Wait. - The physics student is different.

From 2006 to 2015,

for 10 years,

his books have been...

the best-selling novel in Korea.

Among all authors?

- Right. Right. - Among all authors.

Isn't he one of Korea's most beloved authors?

And his debut work...

was printed 684 times.

Usually, how many times is a book printed?

Some books don't get printed again after the first print.

If it's successful, it's printed up to four times.

- But his was printed 684 times. - Right.

- And... - Every household has one then.

It's more or less like that.

In total, his books were...

printed 2,658 times.

All of his books became bestsellers.

He's truly amazing.

There was no one period we could refer to as his prime.

It's been his prime all along.

He's been popular since I was in middle school and high school.

- And he's still popular. - Right.

It's been more than 20 years.

- It's been a long time. - Why are you about to cry?

- Why are you about to cry? - A lot of time has passed.

It's been...

Gosh.

(He's known the master for a long time.)

Can you give any hint, Seong Jae?

(Crazy Yuk will give...)

(an objective hint.)

What do you call the hair...

- that grows next to your ears? - Sideburns.

How about the hair on your stomach?

(You get it, right?)

That's a nice one.

I will express it using my body.

What do we do when we wake up?

- We do a stretching. - We do a stretching.

But I think he would do things before he does the stretching.

As soon as he wakes up...

(The Master's Morning, reenacted by Se Hyeong)

Seriously?

(He gets up and looks at the sky.)

(Then he looks at the ground.)

(What is this?)

(He gives hints about the master's first work.)

Okay.

(This isn't it!)

And then he goes back to observing.

Because this person...

enjoys observing things.

That's what I heard.

Let me tell you about his first work.

When he was little,

he observed 1,200 of those tiny insects.

Where did he get that many?

Did he catch them all?

He also traveled to Africa to observe them.

(He even went to Africa.)

So he made endless observations on those insects?

He wrote those books for 12 years.

He went through 120 revisions before publishing them.

- He kept revising. - Right.

That's only possible through much perseverance and hard work.

It's...

(He's amazing.)

Your master has been waiting in that house all this time.

Really?

(He's waiting inside the tile-roofed house.)

(Are you serious?)

(The blue-eyed master has been hiding in this house.)

Do you think he's been listening into our conversation?

- Did we say anything offensive? - Did we?

- No, we didn't. - No, right?

- Right? - We just said stupid things.

(But I did.)

But does anyone here know...

how to speak French?

- No. - We should be prepared.

His mother language is French.

- It's not English. - No.

If it was English, I could contribute.

Don't be ridiculous.

(Laughing)

Can't you speak French?

I studied French as my second foreign language.

- Really? - We're safe.

- Goodness. - Teach us some greetings.

What should we say when we see him?

Bonjour?

How do you say, "It's nice to meet you"?

"It's nice to meet you."

As I have said, it's been about 20 years.

My memory isn't that fresh.

(Laughing)

- Bonjour. - S'il vous plait.

If I pronounced it like this, he wouldn't understand, right?

- Bonjour? - Bonjour?

Mademoiselle?

- Isn't that... - Doesn't that mean "lady"?

- It does. - Oh, I almost made a mistake.

"Mademoiselle".

Monsieur.

- Monsieur. - Monsieur.

Croque monsieur.

("Monsieur" means "man".)

What does "croque monsieur" mean? Is it a male sandwich?

- What is it? - You may be right.

Like tiramisu?

That's...

(Did you call for me?)

(They're saying whatever that's on their minds.)

We're doomed. We really are.

I said, "croque monsieur". He said, "tiramisu".

And he said, "I miss you."

Now, you may go inside and meet your master.

There is no interpreter.

There is no interpreter.

This is going to be quite difficult.

(Oh, my gosh.)

- There's won't be an interpreter? - Wait.

Are we too poor to hire one?

It doesn't make sense not to have one.

(He wants to cry.)

Hold on.

(He decides to use a translation app.)

- "We are". How do you say that? - "We are".

"We are".

"We are"?

(They need to know that...)

(in order to greet their master officially.)

We... Oh, it worked.

"No ssa bong"?

I don't think that's right.

- It does sound French. - I know.

"No ssa bong, we're All the Butlers."

(Let's greet like the French do.)

"No ssa bong, we're All the Butlers."

Maybe it's "master".

"Master"...

Should we do this?

- "Maitre de maison". - "We're..."

"We're Maitre de maison." How about this?

(They're not confident that he will understand.)

Let's go.

French is so charming.

(The ants living in the hanok village...)

(at Mount Nam come out of their holes.)

- "Maitre de maison". - "Nous sommes"...

- "Nous sommes". - "Maitre de maison".

- It's "sommes". - Shouldn't we do this?

They kiss each other's cheeks.

- No, let's not. - No.

We shouldn't do that.

- Or you can do it for us. - Okay.

- There he is. - It's him.

(Excited)

(There he is.)

This is amazing.

This is incredible.

It really is.

(They'll be meeting the famous writer.)

(Unaware of their arrival,)

(the master is delving into his work.)

(His books are read the most in Korea.)

(He is also the master of imagination.)

(Their unbelievable encounter...)

(will soon occur.)

- Excuse me. - S'il vous plait.

(Their unbelievable encounter will soon occur.)

(He speaks Korean.)

- You spoke Korean. - Hello.

- Bonjour. - Bonjour.

Bonjour.

- Bonjour. - Bonjour.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Bonjour. - Bonjour.

- Bonjour. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

My gosh.

Hello.

(He can't believe it.)

Hello.

- I'm so nervous. - I'm very happy to meet you.

It's nice to meet you.

"It's nice to meet you."

(Bernard Werber is the master for the day.)

(Bernard Werber is the most-beloved writer in Korea.)

(His books have been best-sellers for 10 years.)

(He's Korea's favorite writer.)

(He's sold more than 12 million copies in Korea.)

(His book, "Empire of the Ants", received Prix Palissy.)

(He's the walking encyclopedia of imagination.)

(With your imagination,)

(you can go on adventures without having to experience them.)

(The more you write, the happier you become...)

(and the bigger your imaginary world becomes.)

(The master of imagination is here.)

Let us greet you.

- Why are you mixing Korean? - Okay.

We'll introduce...

(He can't finish his sentence.)

Let me introduce...

- Ourselves. - Ourselves.

- Let us introduce ourselves. - Okay, who are you?

- Let's greet him. - Okay.

Okay, we're ready.

- Nous sommes. - Nous sommes.

Here we go.

- Nous sommes maitre de maison! - Nous sommes maitre de maison!

(It's nice to meet you.)

- Very nice. - Maitre de maison.

"Maitre de maison" is French for...

(He tries to strike up a conversation.)

- Okay, okay. - Okay.

Goodness, he understood everything.

(Now what?)

- Were you working? - Yes.

- Were you writing? - Yes.

Do you write every day?

I get up every morning...

and write for four and a half hours.

Oh, really?

- Yes, really. - He said, "really".

(He continues to speak in French.)

(They're trying to process it.)

My gosh, really?

I do that too.

It's either this or this, right?

(He pretends to understand as well.)

It's like a sport.

- "Like a sport"? - It's like jogging.

- It's like jogging. - Right.

Just like how people jog in the morning, he writes every day.

You must write with regularity.

- "Regularity"? - With regularity.

Yes, our program became a regular.

(Our program did become a regular.)

(I guess they understand.)

Okay.

(Now, their real conversation in French begins.)

(But their minds are...)

(lost in space.)

(There's a blackhole above the house.)

Do you know what I mean?

Yes, that's right.

Okay.

First, would you like to sit down?

- Okay. - Okay.

So...

- I read your book. - Oh, thank you.

"The Butterfly of the Stars".

It was amazing.

Yes, that.

You know what I mean, right? Wait, that's Korean.

(He's stuck once again.)

(Se Hyeong is silent.)

- Okay. - What will we do?

- So what are you... - Is there really no interpreter?

I'm sorry that I don't speak Korean.

- Don't be. - It's okay.

- But... - We understand.

I want to learn Korean.

But your language is very complex.

- "Complex"? - First,

I know "thank you".

"Thank you".

- "Hello". - "Hello".

And...

Wait. Come out, Brother.

What was that?

(They can't understand Korean either.)

- "Friends"? - Come out, Brother.

- "Come out, Brother."? - "Come out, Brother."?

Do you have a brother?

- Yes. - Younger brother?

- I... - Is he French?

- Yes. - He has a French, younger brother?

He was speaking Korean.

- It's... - He's French, yes.

He can speak Korean and French,

so it could be very interesting.

He was prepared.

He knows someone who's French but can speak Korean.

I can't wait to see him.

I'm desperate.

Come out, Brother.

- Come out, Brother? - Does he really have a brother?

- Brother! - Come out, Brother.

Brother, we really need you.

(Come out quick. We are getting dizzy.)

- Hello, everyone. - Wow.

(A guy to rescue SangSeungHyeongJae from the Black Hole.)

Hello!

(It is master's French brother,)

(Robin.)

- Hello, Robin! - Hello.

- Hello. - Yes, I know you.

- From "Abnormal Summit." - Right.

(Robin is visiting as an interpreter as well as the student for a day.)

Do you two know each other?

- Of course. - I see.

- You two knew each other? - Yes.

- Really? - All French people know each other.

(If we are French, we are all good friends.)

This is a huge relief.

(The appearance of Robin, the Master's brother,)

(is a huge relief for everyone.)

I really enjoyed watching "Abnormal Summit."

Would you be able to interpret for us simultaneously?

Would it be possible?

"Abnormal Summit" was five years ago.

- I played and learned a lot. - I see.

I will try to interpret well.

- We look forward to it. - Good.

But still, please speak a little slowly.

So just now, I couldn't understand because he said to us in French.

He said he writes every morning.

Does he still writes every morning even in Korea?

(He translates into French as soon as he hears it.)

(Wow, he is so trustworthy!)

- Yes! I write every day in Korea. - Yes!

- Yes. I guess "Oui" means "Yes". - Right.

(French)

From 8am to 12:30pm.

- Every day? - Every day.

I was really smart just now.

- I was smart! - Good job.

- My apologies. - It's fine.

(Robin is pleased, but Bernard is confused.)

You just interpreted, then...

(In the middle of interpretation, Robin suddenly compliments himself.)

I think he is very proud of himself.

Do you not write after that time,

even if you think of something good?

He never does.

(He never writes after that time.)

- Even if he has an idea? - Why?

Because I do not write in the afternoon,

it makes me want to write more in the morning.

(He continued to write as he was waiting for SangSeungHyeongJae.)

(The foundation for the masterpiece is the consistency of four hours.)

I was originally afraid of cats,

but after reading his book, I began to like cats.

- Please pass that on. - I see.

(It's all you, Master.)

- You did it. - And...

I really enjoyed reading...

the recent book, "Death."

I will stop here.

But you can still look at him.

- Why do you keep... - No, it's okay.

(I'm too shy.)

Unfortunately, I only read one of your works, "The Tree."

But that book had a Korean character.

Did you decide to include a Korean character...

because you were impressed when you were in Korea?

What kind of impression did you have on Korea?

That was a great question.

(Great question, Seong Jae!)

When I first came to Korea, I was very surprised.

I think Korea is one of the countries...

with the most effective education system.

- Right. - Of course, of course.

We do have the most passion for education.

Compared to France, a lot of young people in Korea read books.

(As a writer, he has a special love for the country that loves books.)

Even in the book,

the Korean character is depicted as a warm person.

I was very proud.

- He had a good impression. - You are right.

Do you have plans in the future...

to write a novel based on Korea?

Yes.

- Goodness. - "Yes."

If the character is Korean, the name should be...

- You know what I mean, right? - Yang Se Hyeong.

(You know what I mean, right?)

- Lee... - My name is Yang Se Hyeong.

Lee Seung Gi.

(Let's put our names on the bestseller!)

Please tell him that Yang Se Hyeong is a very Korean name.

(Se Hyeong appeals his name to him.)

What does it mean?

To brighten the world.

(It means to brighten the world.)

For my name, the last name Lee,

has been the name for the king for generations.

- In France, it would be Louis XIII. - Louis.

- Please tell him it's like Louis. - Louis.

Louis in Korean.

I am Korean Louis, got it?

(My name is good, right?)

Can you ask...

what his name means?

Werber means...

to diffuse light.

- To spread the light? - To diffuse the light?

Do you have a Korean name?

(Do you have a Korean name?)

- No. Give me, give me. - If so...

(If he does not have a name,)

(we shall make him one!)

- Right! - If it's about diffusing light,

- we should name him... - He will be a great Yuk.

The last name should be Bae.

- It should be Bae. - Bae...

Bae, and then...

To send can also be written as "Bae."

Since his name is to send light, what about Bae Kwang?

What about Kwang Bae?

To send the light, Gwang Bae.

How do we write to send in Chinese?

Do we have Jeon that means to send?

It could be Jeon, or it could be Bae.

- Bae Jeon Gwang. - Bae also means to send.

(Jeon Gwang, which means to spread the light.)

Bae Jeon Gwang.

Or Bae Gwang Jeon.

(2nd candidate is Bae Jeon Gwang.)

- Gwang Bae is better. - What about this one?

Something easy to remember.

- Easy to remember? - It is Gwang Bae.

Bae Gwang Bae?

(For example, Bae Gwang Bae?)

- Gwang Bae. - Gwang Bae is too much.

- For Bernard... - I like Gwang Bae.

Gwang and Bae...

It is the best Chinese character that means to send...

(He is passionately persuading.)

- What about Bae Na Ru? - I don't think he will like it.

What is your name?

Gwang Bae.

Gwang Bae, Gwang Bae.

- Good. - Bae Gwang Bae.

Yes, Gwang Bae.

It is a good name.

Among today's most impressive students...

- Maybe you can take the name, - Even as a random pedestrian.

even as a pedestrian,

and use our name.

- It is possible. - It is possible?

(Yes, it is possible.)

It is possible. It is possible.

(Really?)

- Did he say it is possible? - Yes.

Yang Se Hyeong.

Lee Seung Gi.

- You write it, so I will remember. - Okay.

(Who will be selected to be part of the Master's next book?)

I was curious...

Mr. Werber is known for his imagination.

Where does he get inspired for his imagination?

(Imagination is like muscles.)

The more you use, the easier it gets.

With imagination, you meditate, and you also hypnotize.

- Hypnosis? - Hypnosis and meditation.

(Master's unique training for his imagination.)

I can hypnotize,

and escape hypnosis by myself.

I use hypnosis to connect to my unconscious world.

He said he can do both.

- Hypnosis? - If we have time later,

can he show us?

Sure.

Sure, I can.

(Moving beyond imagination,)

He will show us in person?

(Master's imagination training will begin.)

(Bernard's invitation to his secret world.)

- What? - Really?

- Goodness. - This is amazing.

(Master's magic enchants everyone.)

- He is correct. - He is correct.

(They are digging deeper with Master's voice.)

(A world of unconsciousness found through the Master.)

(They are slowly drawn to his special world.)

I say zero.

(Master's surprising imagination and students' amazing imagination.)

(Wake up, potatoes?)

(You are such a swindler.)

(Now, it is time for a Korean-style imagination training!)

(Bae Kwang Bae, an expert gamer, always goes for the killer move.)

(Every challenge becomes the foundation for his imagination.)

(Bernard Werber's Encyclopedia of Sauna?)

(A special and funny imagination...)

(presented by Gwang Bae.)
