Original subtitles

(Master with 10 years of live show experience)

(He teaches how to handle unexpected accidents.)

3, 4.

(And no one expected...)

(the master's tears.)

(A touching story about...)

("father" will begin today.)

(Last week)

(All the Butlers fishing competition)

(Abalone ramyeon for winners)

(They calculate by three longest fish.)

(Team Rising star dashes.)

(Se Hyeong is boat sick,)

(and catches a flounder.)

(The experienced master is losing to the ignorant disciples.)

(I don't think the master has 55 years of experience.)

(Which team will be chosen by the East Sea deity?)

A minute left.

I got one.

This one is pretty strong.

Where? Please.

30cm.

- 30cm. - 30cm.

(A 30cm fish will turn the table around.)

- 30cm. - Fake.

- 30cm. - Fake.

(I will show you the real one.)

30cm. It's big.

- This one's big. - This one's big.

This one's big.

(Did the master catch 30cm flounder like he wished?)

- This one's big. - This one's big.

This one's big. Double flounders.

(What's the size?)

Double flounders.

I need 1 large one, but I got 2 small ones instead.

- Double flounders. - This is embarrassing.

It hurts my pride.

Let this go.

What is that?

(I lost.)

Abalone ramyeon will be delicious.

Good job.

- Gosh. - Time's up.

Okay.

Did you even catch three?

Come and make ramyeon.

(Come and make ramyeon.)

(The biggest humiliation in his fishing life)

It's funny.

I'm the winner of the individual competition.

Let's give a bite to the individual competition winner.

Is it only the master who doesn't get to eat?

I'm not eating.

I'm going to get sick.

Fishing is fun. It makes time fly.

(Ramyeon party on boat is another fun of fishing.)

Here come the abalones.

(A basket full of fresh abalones with the scent of the ocean)

They're still alive. Look.

- They're fresh. - It's good.

Do I put ramyeon first?

You must put base powder first.

You do it then.

Never mind.

(Only if I won...)

It smells nice.

(It satisfies their hunger after fishing.)

Ramyeon with abalones.

(The noodles are added to the soup.)

This is the food of victory.

(Only the winners get to taste it.)

I will put them in. Here go the abalones.

(The fresh abalones enter the soup.)

- Everything went inside. - Goodness.

My goodness.

Honestly,

there are more abalones than noodles.

They are precious abalones.

(It's half noodles half abalones.)

I am a lucky man.

(I am the lucky Seong Jae.)

By the way, it's too bad that you can't eat it.

I don't like eating that much.

Why do I have triple eyelids?

Is it because I am hungry?

When this goes on air,

my children will be hard on me.

(Is he appealing to their sympathy?)

They are going to tease me for competing...

against kids and losing.

(Deok Hwa lost and didn't get to eat ramyeon.)

(While his inside is boiling,)

(abalone ramyeon is done.)

Look at the abalones floating on top.

- That's it. - Look.

This is over.

Why did that escape the shell?

It's cooked.

That one came out too.

- It's all cooked. - It escaped the shell.

- It got cooked, - It looks incredible.

and the meat got detached from the shell.

They all got detached.

It's so fascinating.

I am so happy.

(There's a pot full of fat abalones and chewy noodles.)

This looks too good.

You look great with the sea...

and the land in the background.

- I am Chef Lee. - He looks like a chef.

I am sorry to say this, but do you have kimchi?

(He teases Deok Hwa.)

Can you give us kimchi too?

Seung Gi, can you go to the land and get some kimchi?

I will take care of that.

(He will recover his dignity...)

(by getting kimchi for them.)

Captain.

(He's so cute.)

Wait, boys.

(While the master's gone to recover his reputation...)

Is it okay as a whole?

This is good. I am going to eat it as a whole.

Please slice it sideways and put them on the shell.

- Gosh. - Make it look nice.

(Seung Gi is humiliated.)

I can do that.

It's sliced sideways, sir.

Thank you.

Some of you want it sliced, and some of you don't want it sliced.

My gosh, you are all hard to please.

(Yes!)

(He got kimchi from the captain.)

Young radish kimchi.

Ramyeon without kimchi...

is steamed bun without red bean paste filling.

I love it.

(Thanks to the master, they got kimchi.)

- Thank you, sir. - Enjoy.

- Thank you. - It looks good.

Seung Gi, for dinner...

(He slurps the noodles first.)

(He tries the abalone too.)

(After fishing,)

(they finally get to taste the real ocean.)

The abalone is so soft.

(Adding in abalones was a stroke of genius.)

You should at least let us have this.

This is too good.

- Is it good? - This is too good.

Is it really that good, Sang Yun?

Yes.

How is the abalone?

- The abalone is... - Yes?

cooked just perfectly.

It's very tender.

It melts in your mouth.

For the first time, I felt this.

You are really nasty today. You know that, right?

Right?

Why don't you taste it?

Come on. Master. Seung Gi.

Taste the bowl.

(Se Hyeong suggests that they taste the empty bowl.)

See how plastic tastes.

(Think of it as plastic abalone.)

Taste the plastic.

It's got the incredible sea smell, doesn't it?

(We are at the sea.)

I think that's rude.

Chew this tree.

This is so funny.

I really want to eat one.

He's reacting to everything I say.

(It tastes quite good, doesn't it?)

Tell us how we can eat it.

- Give us a chance. - Then...

should we ask to see their specialty?

Can you do an impression of a singer or a celebrity?

I can't do an impression of a celebrity.

- Why don't you... - You can't do it?

I am very bad at it.

Why can't you do that?

(Does it mean he can?)

(Well...)

I used to be very confident at doing the impression of Lee Ju Il.

I am sure you are good at it.

(Despite the age difference, they used to be best friends.)

He used to call me like this.

"Deok Hwa."

- "Deok Hwa." - "Deok Hwa."

I said to him, "Why do you pronounce my name like that?"

"Repeat after me. 'Deok Hwa.'"

"You nag so much."

"Deok Hwa."

"That's not it!"

"All right. Then I won't call your name."

(He sounds just like him.)

He's just like him.

- He is. - "Deok Hwa."

My goodness. Give him one.

His voice sounds so great.

- I will give it to you. - The impression you did...

made my headache go away.

I love it.

(Just listening to it makes them feel good.)

It's delicious.

I love it.

It's delicious.

(Look at the East Sea)

You are suddenly singing?

(Is he suddenly singing?)

I should be serious. What kind of a master am I?

There's no such thing.

I think you've come too far to be serious now.

You've come too far.

Can't I go back?

(Instead of being serious, please be fun.)

When you decided to join this show,

what image did you want to give off?

I wanted to be like a master.

- Like a master. - Yes.

I was going to say this as soon as I meet you.

- What was that? - Se Hyeong.

- Yes. - The true warrior...

should not swing a sword in the streets.

(He wasn't the master. He was the godfather.)

The true warrior...

doesn't get thrilled after cutting off a bakery owner's head.

This is why.

It's because his thoughts are different from...

the thoughts of a butcher.

(He loves it.)

That was great.

That's how I am supposed to be. Why am I like this right now?

You didn't say much.

I caught a tiny little flounder and got so thrilled.

(He was really thrilled about it.)

What's that?

But we have to stick to the concept of the show.

- Right. - Right.

So at certain point,

I will pretend to be serious.

Give us a sign.

Please do this.

Okay.

(With the cue,)

(he will become very serious.)

(He can change the mood whenever he wants to.)

If you do that,

we will play along.

Okay. I will be serious later.

The true warrior...

Let's just eat the ramyeon.

(I don't like being serious.)

The timing was excellent.

(I think I found the master who has the same sense of humor as me.)

I am unbelievable.

(Thanks to the master, they might get seasick again while laughing.)

- Please turn the boat around. - I am annoyed.

(Will they be able to see him being serious within the day?)

Shall we go, Captain?

Let's go to the port.

- What's this place? - Is this...

where you stay when you come here to fish?

I usually sleep at a place like this.

(This is where he stays when he comes here to fish.)

- Should we go inside? - Yes.

Let's go inside.

I will take the umbrella.

(It's not as fancy as a hotel.)

It's just like a family home.

It's really clean.

- It's clean, isn't it? - It is.

How many rooms are there? there are so many rooms.

There is quite a few.

There are 1, 2, 3... There are 6 rooms.

- I see. - This place is so tidy.

We will be using the entire place, right?

We will.

All of these rooms?

We can take one room each.

We can have a room each then.

One room each?

- Isn't it how it usually is? - It's the first time on this show.

Each room has a bathroom.

- No way. - This is how it's supposed to be.

- This is really great. - Right?

- Who's going to share the room? - Why don't we...

use one room each today?

Will each of us get a room for the first time on this show?

We should each use a room. We have a lot of rooms.

Should we do that?

- Really? - There are enough rooms.

Of course.

Today, becoming the master's roommate is...

disadvantageous for you.

It won't be nice. I am going to snore too.

I need to have my own room.

Besides,

now,

you will be shocked when I take off my wig.

- You take it off before sleeping? - Right.

Will you reveal your head without the wig?

Of course I will.

By the way,

sleeping beside me won't be as nice as sleeping alone.

(He will be shocking visually and acoustically.)

- Please take some rest. - Okay.

Let's play the game while he's resting.

I think the master is going to snore quite a bit.

I think he's going to snore very seriously.

His voice echoes a lot...

when he speaks.

Do you want to be his roommate?

- What? - Do you want to go?

It's okay when I am the one snoring,

but I can't stand it when someone else snores.

You are very selfish in a good way.

He is your fishing master.

(He is Seong Jae's fishing master.)

That's why I did consider...

volunteering to become his roommate.

But I changed my mind because I can have my own room.

- Having your own room is special. - It's the first time.

It's our first time to get our own room.

Which game should we play?

(Which game will they play?)

(This is very important.)

With the master...

I have an idea.

What is it?

I brought fishing lines.

- Right. - There is a game you play...

(He laughs.)

using fishing lines.

You take one line each.

Each line will be long.

We take all four lines to the master.

- And you make him choose. - That's fun.

- He has to pull one line. - I get it.

The master can choose 1 of 4.

He can choose whatever he likes.

The person who gets dragged will be his roommate.

- It's like "Ghost Leg". - Right.

- It's easy and nice. - Right?

- It will be done in one round. - We can do that.

We can tie our things,

and he can pull whatever he likes.

You have to tie the thing he won't want to have.

(In order to get your own room, tie what he wouldn't choose.)

- The master... - What should I get?

(Seung Gi goes straight to the kitchen.)

Does the master like reading?

- I don't think he would like it. - Right?

Should I tie a camera?

(They are analyzing the master's taste.)

I think he would like a camera.

Right.

He probably wants to get some rest.

Have you chosen the item yet?

(While they are busy trying to choose an item...)

(Se Hyeong is zoning out.)

Okay, I've made up my mind.

I have to find something that I can tie the fish line to, right?

- Did you choose yours? - I did.

(Seung Gi followed by Seong Jae have chosen their items.)

I think the master wouldn't like this item.

Okay, I've chosen as well.

(Se Hyeong chose the item while zoning out.)

I came up with something he would never want to have.

I chose something the master wouldn't like for sure.

It's not that I don't like him. I just really want my own room.

(Analyzing data)

(Sang Yun stands up.)

Here I go.

- What are you doing? - I'm choosing this.

(Sang Yun chose the power socket.)

Are you trying to give him an electric shock?

(It would be like fishing for an electric eel.)

(They must have really thought this through.)

I chose a razor.

- That's clever. - A razor.

He doesn't seem like he would need it.

I chose the kettle.

(He chose a kettle?)

- Why would you choose that? - A kettle?

Hey, he can hear you.

- Let's keep it down. - Now I have to change my item.

Seong Jae, you chose a razor?

I have to change mine because of you now.

- Seung Gi. - Yes.

I understand that you want your own room, but that's harsh.

I'm sorry.

Don't lose your smile.

(I just wanted my own room.)

(Se Hyeong goes into the room where he found his item.)

(Rattling noise)

(What's that noise?)

(He's struggling.)

- This is what I chose. - What is that?

(What did Se Hyeong bring?)

It's like the last time.

(It's a rice cooker.)

- He would never choose this. - What is that?

(Is mine too easy to grab?)

(What's this noise now?)

This is my new choice.

(He chose a television monitor over the kettle.)

(Seung Gi is too funny.)

That's what you chose?

You really must...

not want to sleep with the master.

It's not because I don't want to sleep with the master.

I really like him, I really do. But I want my own room.

My item is just waiting to be picked.

It's just waiting to be picked.

Let's put them back to where they belong now.

- Okay. - Okay.

(Se Hyeong and Seung Gi's are large, Seong Jae and Sang Yun's are small.)

Master, you can come out now.

What took you guys so long?

We needed to take some time placing our items.

We had to place them very carefully,

and we wanted a fair play.

What is this?

We came up with this to let you experience what it feels like...

to actually catch a fish because you didn't catch anything today.

We prepared a fishing game for you.

We're not very proud of it.

Thanks for pointing that out.

That's why you should have caught a big fish in the first place.

You only caught small minnows.

Sounds like you caught a big one.

I'm sorry.

All right.

We're going to close the door now.

You have to decide very carefully.

They want to continue the fishing.

(Okay, I got this.)

- There's no changing allowed. - I won't.

- You're not going to? - No.

Should we just go with this order then?

Who would have chosen this rice cooker?

Yang Se Hyeong?

Do you want to switch with me?

No, let's just go with this order.

- You don't want to change? - No.

This is more nervous than...

I thought it would be.

This is killing me.

(Nervous)

This is killing me.

(Se Hyeong's fishing line)

(Will Se Hyeong be sharing the room with the master?)

That was just practice.

- All right. - Okay.

- I was just practicing. - You scared me.

I just wanted to see whether it was a miscellaneous fish or a big one.

I can let go if I don't want to go for it, right?

- Yes. - Of course.

(This time, Sang Yun's fishing line is being pulled.)

(Am I going to be your roommate?)

This doesn't feel like a big one.

(Sang Yun's fishing line is fluctuating.)

This one's got some strength.

(Please don't.)

(The master let goes.)

(This doesn't feel like the right one.)

(What a relief.)

(This fishing game is really...)

(making them nervous.)

The one with a lot of hair.

(Is he going for Seong Jae's razor?)

My goodness.

What is this?

Is this an octopus?

(it's Seong Jae.)

This just feels like a small fish. It's following me.

Is this a squid?

(Seong Jae's fishing line is being pulled.)

(He's not pulling it back at all.)

This one has no power.

- You should let him feel strength. - You should.

Hold on a second.

I think this is Seung Gi's.

(He thinks the television monitor belongs to Seung Gi.)

(His prediction is accurate.)

This one is easy to pull as well.

(The line is becoming tighter.)

- Who is it? - This one has some strength.

(This is quite fun.)

(Shaking)

- Goodness. - My gosh.

Why are you shaking the line?

(He's pulling harder.)

Is this an amberjack?

This one is very strong. What is it?

An amberjack.

(He compared Seung Gi to an amberjack.)

I think he's having fun in there.

(The master is filming "Finding Roommate" in there.)

- I have made up my mind. - All right.

- You have chosen? - Okay.

(Sharing the room with the master?)

(Or getting my own room?)

(The outcome depends on the master's decision.)

I'm going for this one.

I'm going for this one.

(He went for the amberjack.)

Is it stuck in a rock or something?

(He's pulling as hard as he can.)

(His feet are also helping him pull the line.)

(Would he be getting his own room?)

(Or would he have to confront the snoring and his bald head?)

This doesn't belong to a person?

What's happening? Why is it stuck?

Hold on a second. What's wrong with it?

Isn't a human holding the fishing line?

(I'm not ready for the snoring and the bald head.)

What's happening?

Is it attached to the wall or something?

(Will Seung Gi become his roommate?)

(After the long fight,)

(he gives up at last.)

- What happened? - You caught him.

(The rest of the members get their own rooms.)

You caught a big one.

I caught a big one?

(I knew it.)

It sure is a big one. You should pull it all the way.

It's a big one.

It's Seung Gi.

I knew it was you on the other side.

- You did? - I had a feeling.

- How did you... - How did you find out it was him?

- How did you know? - You couldn't have known.

- Actually... - Yes.

I knew the rice cooker belonged to Se Hyeong.

- It's yours, right? - Yes.

- It is. - I knew it.

Were you trying to give me an electric shock or something?

(Why did you give me a power socket?)

Which fish were you trying to go for?

I went for the amberjack, of course.

The amberjack.

He was very strong.

The amberjack.

Seung Gi the amberjack.

I was the squid.

Really? Was it you?

The one without any power?

Fishers don't like it when they can't feel any strength.

You did that on purpose, didn't you?

Fishers don't like it when they can't feel any strength.

- Anyways. - It's a destiny.

I guess it's my destiny to be with the master.

He's going to regret this.

While you guys are enjoying your alone time in your rooms,

he's going to hear me...

grind my teeth,

snoring,

and even see me sleep with my eyes open.

I go to the bathroom a lot.

(He's already being tortured.)

(Also, he gets to see his head without his wig.)

- Nice work, you guys. - We get our own rooms.

I really think that...

there is something between us. We belong together.

Okay, we're roommates.

(They were fishing partners before and now they become roommates.)

You got a new nickname, Seung Gi. You're an amberjack.

- Seung Gi the amberjack. - I like it.

Did you pull the line because you didn't want to sleep with me?

No, that's not the reason. I just wanted to see how long I would last.

- Take some rest, you guys. - Okay.

- Seung Gi. - Yes.

Make the bed.

(Seung Gi is on his way to make the bed.)

- Okay. - My gosh.

This is my own room.

(Seong Jae is showing his own room.)

This is my own room.

Seung Gi. You made a wrong choice.

No, I'm really happy to be here.

This is the room that the master and the amberjack will be sharing.

(Seung Gi the amberjack is master's assistant.)

Tell me if you need anything, okay?

Don't worry, I don't need anything.

- The front yard is amazing. - It's amazing.

It's really nice.

The captain prepared a lot for us.

This is amazing.

(A luxurious course meal prepared by the captain)

- Let's open it. - Let's open it.

- What is it? - Let's take a look.

(They open them.)

- What is that? - I don't believe it.

What kind of fish is that?

- There's sashimi. - I think that's a red sea-bream.

There's cold sashimi soup as well.

- There's so many. - I think that's steamed.

- These are steamed flounders. - They are flounders.

- There's also spicy flat fish stew. - It's steamed.

- There's so many dishes. - This is amazing.

- That's the spicy fish stew? - Yes.

That's boiled flounders with seasoning.

- It's boiled. - That looks so good.

This is a lot.

There's so much food.

- What else is there? - We caught all the flounders.

We didn't catch this one though.

This is the cold sashimi soup and that is the sauce.

(The cold sashimi soup is filled with fresh seafood.)

- I'm out of my words. - They all look so good.

This is amazing.

- We also have sashimi donburi. - That looks so good.

Look at the sashimi donburi.

(The sashimi donburi is full of flounder they caught.)

- It's unbelievable. - I love this.

Goodness.

Do we really deserve all the food? Are we allowed to eat it?

(Do we really deserve it?)

What should I try first?

(What should we eat first?)

(It's a pleasant worry.)

- Thank you for the food. - Thank you.

Thank you, master.

Isn't it incredible?

(He eats the whole flounder.)

The sashimi soup looks good too.

(He loves it.)

- It's so tender. - The flounder sikhae is amazing.

(They share the good food.)

This is unbelievable.

Isn't it amazing?

I think the sashimi soup would be good too.

There's nothing else I can say other than that it's incredible.

(I can't stop smiling.)

- The sashimi is so good. - I can't stop smiling.

Because the sashimi is too good, the sauce doesn't really matter.

It's really tender.

- I... - Flounder is really good.

I need to finish this.

(Slurping)

It's because of this, right? This is incredible.

That's delicious.

(They warm the inside with spicy fish stew.)

This is rockfish stew.

- Yes. - Isn't this the happy moment?

- This is the best. - I feel so happy.

There's joy in eating the fish you've caught.

And in coming out here.

(This is happiness.)

By the way, you quit being the host...

exactly after 10 years.

- Did you just do it for 10 years? - Exactly 10 years.

I did that because of this reason.

When I asked someone, late Gwak Gyu Seok...

He was known as "Fry Boy".

He presented a show for nine years and several months.

He presented 1 show for 9 years and several months?

He presented it for nine years and several months.

So as a joke,

I said I would quit exactly after 10 years.

I said that at the start.

I said 10 years,

but I didn't think the show would last that long.

But it actually came true.

I quit exactly after 10 years.

- You presented it for 10 years. - Yes. 10 years.

It was live-broadcasted too.

I was really curious about that.

I should've acted like I was on a regular shoot,

but I was extremely nervous.

One hour felt like several hours.

What did you dread the most?

- An unexpected situation. - An unexpected situation.

What was the worst situation you've experienced?

The scariest were the people...

coming up to the stage.

There were people like that in the past, right?

Right now, the security system is good.

There are guards everywhere.

They can cope with...

any kinds of situations.

In the past, the host had to do all of those.

Did the host do that?

Who else would do it? The director was in the control room.

The assistant director was busy controlling the audience.

The singers were busy singing.

Who else?

(Who would do it?)

(10 years of experience gave him know-hows.)

What did I do first during the rehearsal?

(This is how he coped with any emergency situations.)

I just have to check the three front rows.

That's where the trouble usually comes from.

It's obvious.

I would look at the three rows...

like this.

(He thoroughly scans from the front row.)

I checked if there were any rude people.

I checked if there were any drunkards.

I checked if any of them had the potential...

of jumping onto the stage in the middle of the show.

(I will take you down.)

You have to attack first whenever you see something.

- You attack first? - I was always ready...

to throw punches.

You were always ready to throw punches like this?

They always came unexpected. So what else could I do?

If someone came up from here, I'd kick him with this foot.

If someone came up from there, I'd kick him with the other foot.

- Then... - You were always ready to fight.

Most of the time, you were reading the script...

like this.

Whenever you saw someone suspicious, you did this.

There was no time to put the script down.

I see.

My eyes were only on that.

I looked at the three front rows with glaring eyes.

- Maybe you wanted to punch someone. - I was always ready.

Your eyes look too scary.

It won't happen.

(He suddenly changes.)

But I was always ready for any unexpected situations.

Then one day,

I was performing.

I was performing "Gone with the Wind"...

Sejong Center Chamber Hall.

It was one great scene.

It was the scene called, "Dance Party".

Waltz was playing.

(It was the waltz party of upper-class Southerners.)

We were dancing, and one mad man...

came up the stage completely naked.

Why are there so many...

He came up the stage naked.

- Look at him. - My goodness.

- We were performing, - You have to pay and watch him.

and one man came up naked.

(He's laughing because Sang Yun is laughing so hard.)

A naked man was on stage, so the music stopped.

And all the actors paused.

(The shocking sight paused everyone.)

Everything was stopped.

Nobody could leave.

I was very used to doing live broadcasts, you know?

I was always ready for men like him.

- You didn't throw punches, did you? - Did you throw punches?

- 1, 2. - I had to go and grab him.

But there was nowhere to grab.

He was...

There were no clothes to hang onto.

His hair was short too.

I couldn't grab his hair either.

I was wearing a nice suit,

and I ended up doing a headlock.

(He did a headlock wearing a suit.)

There was nowhere to grab.

Come with me.

The mic was still on, so I couldn't swear.

- "Come with me." - "Come with me."

(He was very gentle with him.)

As soon as we went outside, I kicked and punched him.

(He punched him right away.)

Even if this happened, the play had to go on.

The music was stopped, and everyone was dumbfounded.

(He laughed and said this.)

"There are a lot of madmen like him in the south."

"Music, please."

(The waltz party resumed.)

- You deserved a standing ovation. - That was amazing.

You must've gotten a standing ovation.

It was on the newspaper the next day.

They even wrote the line I said.

That was really funny.

That happened once during a play.

- That was incredible. - People might have thought...

that was part of the play.

When you fail to control that, accidents happen.

So the host was given a lot of responsibilities.

- You had to be a guard too. - I did everything.

Hye Eun Yi was singing, "Under the third Hangang Bridge",

there was fire in the back.

- My goodness. - The lights were...

What is this story?

There were red, blue, and yellow lights.

The lights weren't as great as they are now.

Sang Yun is cracking up.

There are things called gel filter sheets.

- Blue, yellow, and red sheets. - Right.

- They are like cello sheets. - They put those on the lights.

When they get too hot and warped,

it touches the light, and it causes the fire.

(Hye Eun Yi was singing a song.)

"The place is on fire."

(This time, Deok Hwa becomes a firefighter.)

"My gosh."

(He's weeping aloud.)

"The song is ending soon. This is crazy."

While checking on her, I called the staff.

(The host had to put out the fire too.)

"That was a lovely performance."

- "She's very well received." - You were a firefighter too.

"You listened to 'Under the third Hangang Bridge'."

(My gosh, that was too funny.)

"Let's continue."

That was crazy.

- I had to put out fire too. - Sang Yun has never...

- He has never laughed this much. - laughed this much.

What's wrong with you?

- He's laughing and crying. - You reacted so quickly.

How surprised would I have been?

You would've been surprised.

There was nobody else who could fix the situation.

- Right. - My stomach hurts.

Nobody else saw it.

- It was... - Why are you so upset?

Why are you so upset?

- Have something sweet. - It was just frustrating.

(That's how hard it is to host a live-broadcast show.)

Seung Gi, please touch my face again.

I was going to do that a while ago. I think it might be too late.

- Would it be okay? - Do it.

- Here we go. - I am so embarrassed.

Anyway, the show...

(He's very calm.)

It was fun,

but there were many things to look out for.

Live-broadcast is tough.

How did you always stay so calm?

It was the sense of duty.

I thought I had to do everything.

- That's what kept me going. - The sense of duty.

(With the sense of duty, he played multiple roles alone.)

- Anyway... - How many roles did you play?

That's what you had to do at the time.

That's why they paid me a lot.

(He's proud.)

Recently, I hosted "Inkigayo".

You used to host a live-broadcast music show.

- Really? - Yes.

But when I was hosting it,

there were usually 2 to 3 hosts.

Usually there are two hosts.

Right. I never hosted the show alone.

I always hosted it with a female presenter.

Why don't we group ourselves into teams of two...

- All right. - and experience dealing with...

the unexpected situations that happens during a live broadcast.

- There can be an accident. - Let's try to deal with them.

Let's do a short exercise.

- That would be great. - Let's try that.

(The master of 10 years of hosting experience...)

(will judge the rookie hosts' ability to cope with...)

Let's divide ourselves into teams.

(unexpected situations.)

- Okay. - Are you ready?

Standby.

(Everyone is on standby.)

- Are you ready? - Yes. We are ready.

It's two seconds before we go on air.

Camera two is on.

(Simulation begins...)

Cue.

[VIU Ver] E30 Master in the House / All the Butlers "Master and His Father" -= Ruo Xi =-

It's two seconds before we go on air.

Camera two is on.

Cue.

Hello, I am the host of "Inkigayo",

- Lee Seung Gi. - I am Yuk Seong Jae.

- Hello. - Hello.

I am your fan.

- What? - Are you?

- What are you doing? - I am your fan.

- Sir. - I...

- I hate you, Seung Gi! - I have to host the show,

- so can you let me go? - I am sorry.

- Okay, Seong Jae. - All right.

Sit there for a while.

- Today, Seung Gi is... - Sit there.

- It's Lee Seung Gi. - It's Seung Gi.

(A young fan who looks old appears.)

He is Seung Gi.

- All right. - He is your anti-fan.

I think someone needs to get him under control.

It's you, Seung Gi.

- I am sorry, but... - This is cool.

- All right. - This is so cool.

It's nice to meet you.

- It's nice to meet you. - Seung Gi.

- You are my role model. - Right. I...

- Today... - You are my role model.

It's amazing to meet the fans.

You can only see this...

on our show.

(He has a mental breakdown.)

This is...

How do you feel to be on our show?

- First of all... - This is so funny.

- On a live-broadcast show, - Sack them all.

I don't stop or restrict people.

We are one, you see.

Spend all night doing that.

- There's music that suits the mood. - Right.

You are right. Coming up next is Deok Hwa.

"Song You Sing with Your Heart". I mean "Song Your Heart Sings".

- Please. - Please.

It was that woman yesterday

Today it's this woman

(He's embarrassed.)

That was so funny.

(They get one star for their accident coping ability.)

- That was... - My goodness.

Who were those people?

When you first started,

you should've looked out for those people.

I've been watching them from the beginning.

(Is he still doing his job?)

Switch your positions.

(The hosts are replaced.)

(Sang Yun and Se Hyeong have no experience in hosting a show.)

This is fun.

(Everyone is on standby.)

Standby.

Everyone be on standby. It's 10 seconds before we go on air.

(Se Hyeong whispers something into Sang Yun's ear.)

Se Hyeong. It's 10 seconds before we go on air.

Okay.

Get a two-shot, please.

Sang Yun, don't worry and just follow my lead.

Okay. Please help me.

Their height difference is big, so please do a good job.

Cue.

Hello. I am the host of "Starry Night", Yang Se Hyeong.

I am Lee Sang Yun. It's nice to meet you.

It's raining outside.

It's very atmospheric.

Mr. Lee Deok Hwa is today's guest,

and I am very nervous.

- Same here. I am his big fan. - Right.

(The audiences start plotting something.)

It's...

(Groaning)

(Se Hyeong attacks him first.)

(Because it's a live-broadcast, we are currently undergoing...)

(a technical problem. We kindly ask for your understanding.)

(A catastrophe happened.)

(How can we deal with this situation?)

I apologize. I peed.

(He deals with it.)

(Se Hyeong's bad acting ends the situation.)

(The 2nd intruder appears.)

- What's going on? - It hurts.

(He needs the medical help.)

He's in a critical situation.

1, 2, 3, 4.

Sistar's "Push Push".

Push push baby

(I lose.)

That was crazy.

That was crazy.

(He did a CPR and saved the show.)

- Have a seat. - He's quick-witted, isn't he?

- This was good. - This was really good.

You acted well with water.

He even bled, didn't he?

You are incredible people.

- Push, push baby - Push, push baby

(The master host approves their talents.)

That was amazing.

By the way, I watched you all today.

You. You are an actor.

Give me an objective answer.

(He suddenly throws a question to Sang Yun.)

Do you want to be clapped of do you want to be acknowledged?

(Clapped?)

(Acknowledged?)

By "clapped", do you mean being popular?

That's what I mean.

When you act in a work that has high artistic value,

no matter how hard you try to be popular,

- it's quite tough. - Right.

When you do the work that appeals to the mass,

no matter how hard you try to be acknowledged...

as an artist, it's tough.

Would you rather be in a film that goes to Cannes Film Festival...

or in a box office hit?

- My goodness. - This is tough.

I'd rather be...

- acknowledged. - Acknowledged.

- That's what I want now. - I thought you'd say that.

- How about you, Se Hyeong? - I love getting...

cheered by people when I perform.

So I want to get clapped.

I want...

to be acknowledged as an artist.

But I always end up getting clapped.

(It's the cute worry of...)

(a popular singer who gets clapped.)

Anyway...

(Se Hyeong looks at him strangely.)

You know you are looking at me as if I am a pathetic.

(You are mistaken.)

(They are cute.)

- How about you? - I want to be...

acknowledged as an artist...

after I become popular enough.

- My goodness. - I would feel bad about...

being judged even before showing everyone who I really am.

I think I would have regrets.

I want to work hard and become popular first.

Then I can do something to be acknowledged as an artist.

It seems like a simple question, right?

Whatever you choose, there is no right answer.

You are right.

However, whichever you choose,

you get recognized.

Right?

If you are not recognized, people won't clap for you.

People won't acknowledge you if they don't recognize you.

You can win a lot of awards if you choose to be acknowledged.

If you choose to be clapped, you become more popular.

Right.

That's what happens.

Honestly,

rather than being acknowledged as a great actor,

I wanted to be applauded.

It would be nicer if I get acknowledged for my acting,

win many awards and make it to the news.

I think the viewers who watch your acting...

and applaud you are more important.

Right.

After doing this for a long time,

people started to understand and acknowledge me too.

Right.

If you told us earlier, we wouldn't have been so perplexed.

I am telling you this because you are still young.

(His words made Sang Yun think.)

- Okay? - I never thought about it before.

Actually, my thoughts have changed...

since I heard what you said.

You will realize it as you go along.

What I am saying is that that's what happened to me.

- I see. - It's difficult.

- I needed to be applauded. - It's difficult.

You might call me cheap.

You might think all I cared about was money.

But the more embarrassing thing...

is not being able to...

provide for my family.

(That was more embarrassing than being considered cheap.)

Do you think I wanted to do the wig commercial?

I had to reveal my weakness.

It was hurting my ego.

(He had to reveal his weakness in order to protect his family.)

Getting my ego hurt was...

less humiliating than not being able to provide for my family.

(Ego for him was his sense of responsibility for his family.)

"Really?"

"I don't care if it's a wig or panties."

(He did everything for his family.)

That's what happened to me.

You weren't embarrassed about everything else...

but embarrassed about not being able to provide for the family.

It's not just the family. It also applied for the people...

I like and people whom I have to take responsibility for.

I should always remember that.

Despair is comedy.

(Despair is comedy.)

My father collapsed from high blood pressure.

He was bedridden for years.

He stayed for a long time near Paroho Lake.

(He used to get treated at a place near Paroho Lake.)

Our family got broken up overnight.

We were in despair, you know?

(They were in despair.)

Honestly, this is what I thought.

"Right."

"Finally, I'm given a job to do."

That's how I felt at the time.

Since then, I've been doing very well.

- Right? - That was the real start.

You were very popular then.

There's nothing much to life.

I got my job done.

- Right. - That's what I thought.

That's when you became mischievous.

(He was on a roll.)

Just one accident...

Just one motorcycle accident...

started the three years of penance.

Did you get into the accident...

when your father was getting treated near Paroho Lake?

That's right.

He had gotten a lot better.

But when I got into a big car accident,

he got very shocked.

Goodness.

That's why...

his condition suddenly deteriorated.

I was in this room, and my father was in the next room.

- At the same hospital. - Right.

I couldn't even walk at the time,

and he passed away in the room next to mine back then.

(He passed away in the room next to mine.)

But you see,

his health had improved a lot since he took great care of himself.

I feel like my one thoughtless mistake...

made him pass away sooner. I've always felt terrible about it.

You must've been beating yourself up about it.

Yes, a lot.

(He's been carrying the guilt all his life.)

So the fishing spot at Paroho Lake...

(The fishing spot at Paroho Lake)

I haven't been there for over 40 years.

Because of your father...

Since my father passed away.

I feel like I'll see him if I go there.

(I feel like I'll see him if I go there.)

- Because of your memories with... - Exactly. That place was...

Throughout my freshman and sophomore years at college,

I visited that place often to run errands for my mom.

I took food and clean clothes to him.

I visited him once a week, and I really looked forward to it.

So when he passed away, I was like,

"I won't be able to go there ever again."

And I haven't been there since then.

It must've changed a lot by now.

My gosh, this story is really...

(Thinking that everything might have been his fault,)

(he's been feeling terrible about his father's death.)

I'd like to take you guys there tomorrow.

Now that I've met you guys in person like this,

we can make new memories together when we're there.

(He wants to take us there?)

Old memories will come flooding back.

Anyway, I had so much fun today.

- Sleep beside me tonight. - Okay.

Don't be embarrassed of things other than...

not being able to look after those around me.

Always remember that, Se Hyeong.

Oh, boy. What a long day.

Thank you for everything today, Master.

- We really appreciate... - Being called a Master made me shy.

Anyhow, I know that you've been...

doing an excellent job with everything so far.

But be really good to your parents while they're alive.

Like I said earlier, I deeply regret it.

It still hurts me to this day, and it makes me so sad.

- You mean, you parents? - Yes.

- Strictly speaking, - Yes.

I've now lived a lot longer...

- as a parent than as a son. - Right.

My father passed away before the age of 60.

- He passed away that young? - Yes.

But back then, I thought he was so old.

It's sad. Once they pass away,

they'll never come back, you know. You won't be able to see them again.

- I wish he lived just a bit longer. - Right.

I feel like I only caused him distress.

Had he lived even just a bit longer,

I would've been able to make him so happy.

Gosh, I still regret it so much.

- Do you still regret it that much? - Of course.

Why do you think I haven't gone back to that fishing spot for 40 years?

- I'm not that sensitive, you know. - Yes.

But for some strange reason, I just couldn't go there.

I had to muster up a lot of courage to decide to take you guys there.

(I mustered up a lot of courage for you guys.)

Anyway, I need to...

take my wig off now, so hit the lights for me.

(I'll take my wig off.)

Then let's begin your wig removal ceremony now.

- Only I get to see this? - Yes, that's right.

Do you hold it like this...

- and gently remove it? - Yes, it comes off right away.

I just need to wipe the skin on the spots, and that's it.

- Then let's begin. - All right.

I'll take it off, so you should...

I'll make sure it's all nice and ready in the morning.

- Brush it like this. - Yes, I'll take care of it.

Hey, that sounded funny.

(He'll take care of it.)

- It's true though. - Gosh, that is hilarious.

Just like how people shine their shoes in the morning,

- I'll make it look brand new. - Okay, sounds good.

- All right. - Yes.

- Lights out. - Lights out.

(The wig is coming off!)

That feels much better.

Make sure you brush the hair thoroughly in the morning.

Oh, my. I must say,

you look so radiant without it.

People call me "Mangwang".

- It means "full of light". - I can see that.

My tummy hurts from laughing. Let's sleep.

Gosh, that was hilarious.

(Morning of the day they will head off to Paroho Lake)

(As if the sky is helping him with his journey after 40 years,)

(it has totally cleared up.)

Wake up.

Wake up.

Seung Gi.

(Even his wig is already on.)

You'd better wake up.

(Half asleep)

When did you get up?

Me? I got ready quietly because I didn't want to wake you up.

I was tiptoeing like this.

- Get up already. - Okay, I'm up.

Wake up. We should get going soon.

Everyone should wake up now.

(Deep asleep)

Wake up.

Wake up!

- Se Hyeong. - Hello.

- Get up already! - Did you have a good sleep?

Of course.

Are you still feeling queasy?

- It's gone, right? - Yes, I'm fine.

(Like a loving dad, he makes sure Se Hyeong is feeling better.)

My, I slept like a baby.

Wake up already!

- I already got dressed. - My gosh.

- Wake up. You need to get up now. - Good morning.

- Oh, you're up. - Yes.

At least one of you is up.

I just washed my hair.

Really? I'm impressed.

You already washed your hair?

You, young man, are a true fisherman.

Fishermen always wake up early.

- Get ready, guys. - Okay.

(While they're getting ready,)

(Master Lee is...)

I haven't been there for over 40 years.

I feel like I'll see him if I go there.

(He has a lot on his mind as he's about to face the 40 years of time.)

(Maybe he doesn't want to go...)

(to where his father used to stay empty-handed.)

(He prepares instant coffee, which he used to drink with his father.)

- All right, let's go. - Okay.

Let's go.

My, good morning.

- What a beautiful day. - The sun is up.

- I feel refreshed. - My, this is nice.

- Se Hyeong, the thing is... - My, I'm excited. Yes.

- To tell you the truth, - Yes.

- I'm not exactly excited. - Oh, why not?

- I hesitated to go there, you know. - You mean Paroho Lake?

He's kind of feeling anxious.

- I see. - That's why he woke up so early.

Thanks to you guys... I was hoping to visit the lake again sometime,

so I thought I should go with you guys.

- Otherwise, I might never... - What's this?

- It's coffee. I made it for you. - It's coffee.

- Let's get in the car. - Okay.

- Who wants to drive? - I'll do it.

- Sang Yun. - Yes.

Don't you think my outfit looks depressing?

No, Master. You look great.

- I'm shabbily dressed today. - Will you be okay in the middle?

Yes, of course.

- We'll leave now, then. - Okay, let's go.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

It must've changed so much. I think...

You used to take this route back then, right?

- This road... - No, no.

Back then... I told you things have changed so much.

- He had to take a boat back then. - Roads like this didn't exist.

- Even this road? - Was it like...

There was one boat that used to carry timber from Inje.

Only one boat a day.

If you missed the boat, you couldn't even get there.

(There was only one boat ride a day.)

It was an extremely remote fishing spot.

But I went there for years.

(It's still not an easy journey.)

My old man stayed there to recuperate.

When I couldn't go,

my wife went in my place.

Actually, we were just friends back then.

She wasn't even my wife.

- Your wife is really impressive. - Seriously.

- That's right. My wife is... - I need to meet a woman like her.

She's done so much for me. Shall I tell you what...

the best way is to make a girlfriend?

This is the best way.

Growing up together in the same neighborhood.

You'd never fight.

Think about it.

(He loves his wife very much.)

That's the reason.

Gosh, I brought it up to let loose and laugh a little,

but I can't even laugh.

- We're almost there. - We're almost there, right?

The second I saw the lake, I got chills down my spine.

(The second I saw the lake, I got chills down my spine.)

So for the past 40 years,

(For the past 40 years)

- you couldn't come here. - That's right.

By choice or not, I just couldn't come here.

I'm not sure what the reason is.

Well, shall I say it's guilt?

He got healthier a lot after staying here,

but because of the accident...

(Because of the accident I got into...)

I feel as if I made him pass away.

(I feel like the accident made my father pass away sooner.)

I really feel like he'll appear before me...

if I'm sitting down somewhere there.

Especially when I'm fishing at night. I feel like...

- he'll appear before me. - Your father?

Yes, I feel as if he'll show up and ask me, "Is it going well?"

Anyway, for a bunch of reasons,

I just couldn't go back there.

To you, coming back here must've been...

a bigger challenge than going to any fishing spots...

out on the sea.

- Yes. - Totally.

Judging from what I've heard, I think...

His son could also feel it while...

watching him for the past 40 years.

He said that he would really like his father...

to visit that place again through this opportunity.

Maybe you...

visiting this place again...

was like a homework that had to be done...

even for your son.

(He wants his father to stop feeling guilty.)

It's... My goodness. Look at all these buildings.

Gosh, look at this.

- Now, this place is... - Has it changed a lot?

- So this is Paroho Lake. - Gosh, this is crazy.

I guess this place is a famous fishing spot now.

Of course. It was famous even back in the days.

My, look at all this.

You're finally here, Master.

Gosh, it's still the same though. Look over there.

That road is still the same.

My wife's jaw will drop if she sees this.

So how do you feel now, Master?

Well, you know.

(He kept replaying this view in his mind for the past 40 years.)

It has changed quite a bit.

(He's back at Paroho Lake.)

- There are dogs here. - My, look at those puppies.

- It's nice to be back here. - They look so pretty.

This is zelkova... My, look at this zelkova tree.

- Do you remember this tree? - Of course I do.

- Really? - You remember it?

Yes, it looks exactly the same as it did 40 years ago.

I'm surprised that the tree is still here.

Only I've changed.

I don't think people are allowed to take these trees down.

- Master, you must feel... - My goodness.

- This is so... - You must be getting emotional.

(One more thing that hasn't changed)

We always used to dock the boat over there.

Did the boat come this way?

Did you dock it over there when you came to see him?

- Right, when it was a big boat... - Yes.

Gosh, hold this for me.

It came in from over there.

When it was a big boat...

(There are some memories that only become more vivid...)

(no matter how much time passes.)

I'd get off the boat over there,

and it'd leave.

It always went that way.

Inje is a long boat ride away.

(He had to take a big boat from Inje.)

To get to the port there...

(He had to take a big boat from Inje.)

I'd get off the boat there and walk up.

(His father was always waiting for him.)

My goodness.

I must say, everything else is still the same here.

The only change is those new houses.

Does everything look the same down there?

Yes, it looked just like that. I mean, the water levels...

changed all the time. When it was high, the water came up to here.

(It's as if 40 years have passed only for him.)

Now that you're here, do you think you will...

visit this place again in the future?

Of course. Why couldn't I?

Look at that. My gosh.

That used to be my spot.

- Did you usually fish there? - Yes, that was my usual spot.

Because of the topography, you could recognize the spot...

- right away. - Exactly. From here,

I'd go to the other side of the lake via wherry.

I'd catch fish there all night and come back to this side...

before the boat comes.

Then I'd walk up the hill from over there.

My old man... I think it was this tree,

but I'm not sure as the hill looks a little different now.

Anyway, he'd be sitting on a chair over here.

When I saw him from afar on the wherry...

I told you that he looked like some guru.

He always wore a crisply ironed white summer jacket.

And he always had a white bandana on his head.

Our conversation consisted of only two sentences.

"Everything is well, right?" Then I'd say, "Yes."

"Go in and get some rest."

That was it.

But the man here later told me something.

- I used to visit every Saturday. - Right.

My old man started getting ready around Wednesday every week.

- When his hair was too long, - Right.

he stood in front of the mirror and gave himself a haircut.

- My gosh. - I see.

And he always made sure to shave...

before my boat arrived every week.

Ramie jackets get wrinkled very easily, you know.

He always washed it, starched it,

- and ironed it. - Gosh, my heart is aching.

And he always wore a bandana.

I'm his son, but he still didn't want to embarrass himself.

(He wanted to look good in front of his son.)

He'd say, "Go catch some fish." And when I go over there...

- It's all soil over there, you see. - Yes.

Back then, fancy fishing chairs didn't even exist.

He always dug up the ground with a shovel.

- So that you can sit down. - In the shape of a chair.

- Right. - He wasn't even well,

but he always did that for me.

Also, he always set up two fishing rods.

Fishing rod holders that we can get now didn't exist back then.

- We had to bury them in the ground. - Right.

But he always set both up so perfectly.

Two fishing rods side by side.

And when I opened the bait container,

I always saw the most perfect paste bait.

He also made sure to put a wet towel underneath to keep it moist.

Everything was perfect. He always had everything prepared.

It must've taken him 2 to 3 days to prepare all of that.

That's why he started getting ready three days ago.

He wasn't even well, you know.

I think your sentiments toward your father...

have been stopped at that time.

As soon as we arrived here, you were transported back to that time.

Yes, I think you're right. I shouldn't have come.

(He's been transported back in time.)

(Reminiscing memories is...)

40 years may sound like a short period of time,

- but it's such a long time. - It is indeed.

I'm back where I couldn't visit for the past 41 years.

I must say I feel very relieved now.

- My, this place is... - This is just...

Master, there's something about this place that really comforts me.

Is it because of the pine trees and the lake?

Seung Gi, that's exactly why people go fishing.

(You probably have no clue.)

Are there any other memorable spots?

Like you said, this place is filled with the memories you have...

- about your father. - Yes, this is the only spot.

To be honest, I feel like my level of experience...

is so shallow. Now that I'm in my 30s,

I can't help but think that I haven't been through enough.

I think that a lot.

No, don't say that. Shall I put you through some ordeals?

(Do you want some ordeals?)

- He wasn't done talking. - He wasn't done.

Gosh, I'm sweating.

I don't have a specific spot as I have many memories with my dad.

One hot summer day, my dad woke me up.

He was like, "Seong Jae, let's go to the bank."

I couldn't understand why I had to go to the bank with him,

so I asked him. Then he said...

we should go to the bank because they have air conditioning there.

Was your dad a comedian?

I heard that as soon as I woke up,

so I got so flustered. I was like, "We'd look like losers."

But at the same time, I knew that he suggested it...

because he wanted to go out and spend time with me.

So we went to the bank together.

But when we got there, my dad suddenly...

- fell asleep on the bench there. - Your dad?

While enjoying air conditioning. Frankly, that embarrassed me.

Did he suggest going to the bank to nap there?

Yes, he dozed off there. So I told my dad...

I thought he wanted to take out some money to give to you.

And he said that one-liner again in that very moment.

"Embarrassment is short-lived, but benefits last forever."

That was the second time.

- The second time, I see. - Yes.

- Is that his motto? - Yes.

"Embarrassment is short-lived, but benefits last forever."

- I'm curious. I want to meet him. - Seriously.

Memorable places. Do you have any, Se Hyeong?

- I have many. - You do?

- Yes, there are many. - Like what? Share with us.

You don't really know it when your parents are alive,

but every place becomes memorable after they pass away.

Hey, I heard your father passed away pretty recently.

- Yes. - What's the first place...

that comes to your mind?

When you think about it.

Hold on.

You all have scars, but you pretended it wasn't the case.

You guys made me look like a soppy loser.

He's rarely talked about his father even with us.

I'd say it's the pork bone soup place, where my family had...

our last meal together.

(The restaurant where his family ate before his father was hospitalized)

My family had a meal together the day before he had to...

go to the hospital due to pain in his shoulder.

We had pork bone soup together, and he saw a doctor...

the next day. And it turned out it wasn't just a shoulder problem.

It was something else.

(He was diagnosed with brain tumor.)

It's the place where my family had our last meal together.

(The place where his family had the last meal together)

Was that the last meal you had with your father?

He's still... I don't think Se Hyeong has...

- Even now, his lips are shaking. - Of course.

- Yes. - It's only been a few years.

Frankly, I almost burst into tears a few times earlier.

But I don't want to do that on a TV show.

- Yes, don't. - I know.

I don't think I should be like that in my current situation.

- I should... - Time heals all wounds.

You see...

Once because of my old man,

I bawled my eyes out.

I was fishing over there on the other side of the lake.

My father told me to go over there and catch fish, so I did.

(He was fishing alone as always.)

That day, I couldn't catch any fish.

So I just sat there all night.

At dawn, I was half asleep.

Seong Jae, I had to see if I could catch some fish in the morning.

I was looking at my fishing rod while trying to keep my eyes open.

You see,

in late spring or autumn,

it gets very foggy here over the lake.

- In the morning? - Yes, in the morning.

It gets foggy to the point that...

you can barely see your float.

It was that foggy.

Suddenly, I started hearing a squeaky noise from paddling.

Think about paddling your way from here to all the way there...

- It'll be so hard. - on a wherry.

(It's a far distance to cross via wherry.)

For someone who's not physically well...

(He wasn't even well.)

When you paddle,

you must use an equal amount of force in both arms...

- Yes, to go straight. - to go straight.

Because he had no strength on this side,

the wherry went this way when he paddled like this.

- It kept going this way. - Right.

So he'd only use this arm a few times while the other one rests.

Then when it's straightened, he'd paddle like this a few times.

That must've been so hard.

But you see,

- it was at the break of dawn. - Right.

Knowing that I must've stayed up all night...

(For his son who got no sleep)

He wanted to bring me some coffee.

That's why you brought coffee in this flask.

That's right. But the thing is,

he could've brought a little bit of coffee just for me.

But because he didn't want to look like a petty man,

he filled up that entire thing with coffee...

at that early hour.

Then he'd get on his wherry with it.

- It must've been exhausting. - Yes.

I heard the paddling sound in the midst of the fog,

then I suddenly saw his wherry right next to my fishing rod.

That totally startled me.

I asked him, "Why did you come all the way here this early?"

Then he said, "Don't mind me."

And he got off the wherry.

There were 2 or 3 people above where I was sitting.

And another 2 or 3 were fishing on the other side.

It was busy as it was the weekend.

Holding this,

he walked up to people over on that side.

Then he gave every single one of them a cup of coffee.

"Have you caught many fish or not?"

"Hey, this spot is bad these days." While talking to them like this.

Then he skipped me.

Only after he finished giving coffee to everyone on the other side,

he came to me...

and stared into the flask like this.

He... My goodness.

"Hey, I think there's enough left for one cup."

"Here, drink this."

Why didn't he just give it to me and leave?

Gosh.

Then, he kept his straight face.

He closed the lid.

Then he turned the wherry around...

and disappeared into the fog.

(He disappeared into the fog after giving him a cup of coffee.)

I have no idea why he did that.

Anyway, for the very first time in my life...

(Why was it so sad...)

I totally bawled my eyes out.

(to see his father going back?)

My towel was soaked with my tears.

I don't know why I cried so much that day.

Before coming here, I wondered...

what kind of memories kept you from visiting this lake again.

But now...

I'm almost 70 now. What am I doing now?

What a touching story.

From the story he told us, I can vividly picture that moment.

He obviously brought the coffee for his son.

But he gave it to other people first.

While giving it to others,

he had to have been mindful of the amount.

- Right. - He must've been like,

"I should save this much for my son."

So with that exact amount,

he offered it to his son, saying there's just enough coffee left.

As a dad, he probably didn't...

want to look weak in front of his son.

- Was it because it was man to man? - Yes, perhaps.

Yes, that's possible.

Like Master Lee said, he probably didn't want to embarrass himself.

(He was shy.)

I think things like that are...

But this is making me wonder...

(That's why fathers are often quiet.)

It took him 40 years just to visit this place again, you know.

I think it'll take...

some time for him to cross the lake to the other side.

Master, this coffee looks very special now.

I'm almost 70, guys. This is so embarrassing.

But I must say...

Those are the memories I have, and that's why I avoided...

coming back here.

- I see. - Earlier,

I've been telling you my stories from a son's perspective so far.

But as a father myself...

(Now, I'll tell you my stories as a father.)

I feel so bad whenever I think about my children...

because a good father must spend...

- a lot of time with his kids. - Yes, that's right.

But in my case,

I always left home at the break of dawn and came home the next day...

because of work. I didn't have time to see my kids...

even during their puberty when they were emotionally sensitive.

So there was a goal I set for myself when my kids were young.

"I must attend..."

"the annual track and field event at their school."

My daughter and my son...

went to the same elementary school.

- They're five years apart. - I see.

For almost 10 or 11 years...

(For 11 years)

I attended every single...

- Did you attend it every year? - track and field event.

- You got that? - Yes.

I made sure to arrive before their lunch break.

I even packed gimbap for them.

I went there and had lunch with them.

Shouldn't we hear the story from your son's perspective as well?

- Yes. - Did he actually...

(His manager and son, Lee Tae Hee)

- Was it... - Goodness.

- very meaningful for you? - Did he attend it every year?

- Yes, he attended every single one. - Gosh, you guys are silly.

Did he bring gimbap for you too?

Well, my mom made all the gimbap.

You brat. I was the one who carried it.

You know what?

- My son isn't married yet... - That was the truth.

because he doesn't think he can be a good dad like me.

- That's so random. - How random.

- Why take it out on him? - Is this revenge?

Why are you getting back at him? You stabbed him in the back.

I'm not married because I'm not sure if I can meet a woman like my mom.

(He has huge respect for his mom.)

- That is so true. - Actually, we've been...

- thinking the exact same thing. - Hey.

That little...

The other day, you said that...

you're unsure if you can be with the same woman for as long as I have.

Master, this place is...

filled with your precious memories with your father,

and you cried earlier too.

You shouldn't argue with your son here.

Does Master Lee tend to express his opinions...

and thoughts to you right away like he's doing now?

Yes, he tells me whenever he's upset or annoyed.

That is hilarious.

I don't think he's given me any compliments in my life.

There's nothing to compliment him on.

What do you want to hear the most from him?

Something you've been wanting to hear.

(Is there anything you've wanted to hear from your dad?)

He's never expressed his love through his words,

but he showed us through his action.

- He always pulled all-nighters... - His action? Like what?

He never showed his fatigue even after pulling all-nighters for work.

- It must've been... - And attending school events.

his way of expressing his love.

My, just enough for a cup.

- Hey. - Yes.

There was enough left for one cup.

- Gosh, that was funny. - He's crying.

This is how I express my love, you fool.

(The coffee his father gave him)

That crazy fool.

He went through a lot while studying abroad alone.

He even had to look after his little sister.

(Now, he gives it to his son.)

He lived in the States for over 10 years.

It must've been very tough.

The father-and-son relationship is so special.

Gosh, this is funny.

I had no idea this instant coffee could be this sad.

My, this is hilarious.

- Because of this fool... - My gosh, why am I...

Hey, I'll pour you some coffee in your father's place.

Actually, there's none left.

Goodness.

Anyway,

- I had a great time with you guys. - Yes.

Now, I should...

Now that my 40-year-old regrets are gone,

I should stay behind...

and try to catch some fish today.

I'll happily meet my father again if he shows up at night.

If he doesn't, that's fine too.

I'd like to try to catch some fish today.

- Thank you. - I was happy for two days.

- I was happy. - Okay.

(Fishing and life are about waiting.)

We cried and laughed repeatedly.

It was full of ups and downs.

Well done.

(He gets the courage to miss his father as much as he wants.)

Real fishermen are waiting for me.

- Hey. - Hello.

(I feel relieved.)

- Well done. - My goodness.

We've been fishing together for 30 years.

After they heard that I'm visiting this place after 40 years,

they decided to come with me...

in case I cry. In case I get scared.

I'm going to fish with them...

before I leave tomorrow.

Let's go.

These guys made me cry.

A line of enlightenment.

Father. My father.

The heartbreaking word.

Father.

(The heartbreaking word, father)

I miss you.

(I miss you.)
