(Congratulations on the 400th episode of Home Alone!)
(For the special day,)
(an iced eagle came.)
(Next to the eagle, a string trio is giving a live performance.)
(As if they're practicing a wedding ceremony)
(As a flower boy, Wilson waits for the Rainbow Club members.)
(With a live performance going on,)
(a raw meat-colored dress enters.)
(She reacts like an actual actress.)
(Please.)
Hello.
Thank you.
(Getting all the lights that could blind her eyes)
(Entering the red carpet surrounded by imaginary reporters)
(Welcome drinks are ready.)
It's a beautiful night. Cheers.
Oh, my gosh.
How elegant!
(Entering a luxurious banquet hall)
(Posing with gratitude in front of the photo wall)
(Thank you for the 400th episode!)
(Sung Hoon enters stylishly...)
(in a black suit.)
What's this music?
(Bursting into laughter)
- What are they doing? - Yes.
You look gorgeous today.
Is it a live performance?
It's a live performance.
There are 450 pieces ready to be performed.
Please drop by the buffet downstairs after the performance.
(A man is looking around as if he's searching for a buffet.)
Why did they prepare all these?
My goodness.
(Extremely moist eyes...)
(and an extremely drunken gait)
(Touching)
Gosh, he is indeed the treasure of Home Alone.
Here comes Kian84.
(Showing off all the talent that he has cultivated)
He's wearing a suit that is delivered overnight.
- Kian84. - Nice to see you all.
- Please come to the photo zone. - Here's the photo zone.
(Cheers!)
My gosh.
(Glaring)
- My gosh. - What's wrong with your eyes?
Why are you lifting your eyes like that?
Please enjoy.
It's good to have this kind of event once in a while.
- Sure it is. - It's nice.
- It's our first time. - We needed this.
It's the 400th episode of Home Alone.
- Right. - Goodness.
Here comes the next member.
Gosh, it's so bright.
It's so bright here.
(A little groom, Simon Dominic)
(Toddling)
My goodness, welcome!
- Here's Simon Dominic. - What's with him?
- What’s with him? - You look pretty cool.
- Looking cool. - You look amazing.
Here's the photo zone.
- Where is it? - Please stand at the photo zone.
- Where's the photo zone? - There it is.
- There. - Oh, here?
Why is it so hard to find it?
Oh, that's nice.
He's like Leonardo DiCaprio in "Titanic".
Look at this waist support.
- You look great. - A waist support?
How dare you call it waist support?
I think there's another member coming.
She only comes when we have good occasions.
(Hwasa can't miss this special occasion.)
What's this music?
Goodness, here's Hwasa.
- There's a photo zone over there. - Oh, here?
She looks simply gorgeous. Come to the photo zone.
- My goodness. - Hello.
Great!
- She always picks a day like this. - What are you talking about?
- Simon Dominic. - Yes.
Could you open the champagne for us?
My hands shake, so I can't open it.
- Your hands shake? - I can't open it either.
Please open it for us.
- Please open it elegantly. - Have you opened it before?
- Of course. - Not like opening a soju bottle.
I've done it before.
- I should unwrap this first. - Right.
- Be sure it doesn't splash. - My gosh!
Hey! Don't do that!
- Am I not supposed to shake it? - We're in the editing studio.
- Hey, this is... - Kian84.
- You might have broken a camera. - I see.
I should be away from him.
I saw people shaking it.
He's making me nervous.
- It's getting out of hand. - Give it to me.
- I'll do it. - Hold on a second.
I'll do it.
- Okay, goodness. - My goodness.
(Under the leadership of the expert,)
(the 400th episode party is in full swing.)
Thanks.
- It's a happy day for us today. - Of course.
- Cheers! - Cheers!
- Congratulations! - Good work.
Congratulations on the 400th episode.
(Extremely absorbed)
Gosh, what's with him?
Thank you so much.
Thank you for the performance. It was great.
Let's give applause...
- as they exit the stage. - Okay.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- You can stop now. - You can leave the stage now.
- You can stop now. - Watch the clip if you have time.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
It was a remarkable performance.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Everyone, happy to see you all. - Good to see you.
It's the 400th episode...
of Home Alone.
- Thank you. - This is really...
(Kian84 starts to speak abruptly without a warm-up.)
Thanks to the viewers,
- we manage to make our living. - My goodness.
- He was saying something nice. - I was saying something nice.
Why don't we all...
- express our gratitude together? - Okay.
- Viewers, thank you so much. - Do we make a bow?
- We always make a bow. - What do I do with the glass?
- Because of my waist support... - What do I do with the glass?
- How can I... - Am I doing this right?
How can I do this?
- We always make a bow, but... - Thank you.
Hold on a second.
You've never made a bow in a tuxedo, right?
Right? How can you make a bow in a tuxedo? It's Western attire.
Since it's our 400th episode special,
we have an event for those who stay in tune.
If you're watching this show right now,
please take a proof shot...
and post it on Instagram.
We prepared various kinds of gifts,
so we hope that many of you will participate.
- Okay. - It's the 400th episode special...
- Wait, the ice is starting to melt. - Right.
- This is made of real ice. - Is that real ice?
- They put a lot of effort into it. - They did.
Isn't this quite expensive?
It is expensive.
Can we make shaved ice with it later?
- Okay, I'll take care of it. - Okay.
- I'll make sure you eat shaved ice. - What are you talking about?
Okay, everyone. Today...
In addition to our clips,
we also prepared celebratory clips from the Rainbow Club members...
- who weren't able to be here today. - I see.
- Did they send us messages? - Of course, they did.
Let's watch the celebratory clips.
- Hello, this is Yu Yaho. - Goodness, it's Yu Jae Seok.
First of all, I sincerely congratulate...
the 400th episode of Home Alone.
- Thank you. - Yu Yaho!
I congratulate it with my whole heart.
There are not many long-running variety programs these days.
Nevertheless, since 2013,
for eight years on Friday nights,
Home Alone has entertained so many viewers.
Congratulations again...
on the 400th episode of the show.
- Thank you. - I...
Yu Yaho is rooting for you.
My sincere congratulations on the 400th episode. Cheers!
- Hello, this is Song Seung Heon. - Gosh, it's Song Seung Heon.
Good to see you.
It's been a long time since I was on the show.
After this 400th episode,
I sincerely wish that the show will last...
until its 500th and 600th episodes.
I'm quite busy lately preparing for my new work.
I'll see you soon with a new character.
Anyway, the viewers of Home Alone,
please stay healthy and be happy.
- Thank you. - Thank you so much.
(Bye!)
- Hello, this is Lim Young Woong. - My goodness!
My favorite program Home Alone...
is already airing its 400th episode.
I sincerely congratulate you on it.
I also enjoy watching the show...
to see the genuine sides of the stars.
- We're always waiting for you. - I look forward to...
the funny episodes of the stars who live alone.
I give you my sincere congratulations!
Hello, Home Alone family.
- I'm Daniel. - My gosh!
- My goodness. - It's Daniel.
From LA.
It'd be great if we went to LA for our 400th episode special.
Right. How have you been?
Long time no see.
Hey, Na Rae. Hi, Kian84.
How are you guys doing?
I'm shooting a film in Korea.
So I couldn't come to see you guys, but I just wanted to say...
Congratulations! Thank you guys for everything.
And I love you.
Hey! Hello.
I'm the first president of the Rainbow Club,
Ro Hong Chul.
My goodness, he's the Rainbow Club member.
- It's Hong Chul. - Ro Hong Chul.
The 400th episode. It's the 400th episode!
I've never dreamed of it. When we gathered for the first time,
we started the show with my narration.
It went like, "There are 4.3 million single households."
As you all know, now...
there are over 9 million single households.
- It's over 9 million now. - That's a lot.
- There are so many people... - Is that good news?
who can relate to the show.
Forever, Home Alone!
- Great. Let's go for it! - It's been so long.
- Cheers! - It's been so long.
Hello, everyone.
I'm the forever Captain Idiot, Lee Si Eon.
(Embarrassed)
- My goodness! - It's Si Eon.
- Captain Idiot. - It's Si Eon.
His face doesn't look good.
- My gosh. - Doesn't he look good?
He still wants to call off his decision.
He looks awesome.
It's already the 400th episode.
I think my role takes up about 80 percent of the entire episodes.
What a shame.
Please give much love...
to Home Alone.
I miss being on the show. I miss you.
- Forever, the Rainbow Club! - Forever!
- Hello, I'm the former president... - Goodness! It's Hyun Moo.
of Home Alone, Jun Hyun Moo.
Good to see you.
His beard is so...
Why does he look so tired?
He looks tired.
I thought he was wearing a black mask.
- He looked like that in Gyeongju. - I know.
Long time no see.
Sung Hoon, Roiii Bang.
Hwasa.
- Oh, there's Simon Dominic. - He's calling me.
- I've enjoyed your episodes. - It's as if he's watching us.
And there's Kian84.
Everyone has done hard work,
but after I had left the show abruptly,
this member filled in my empty place and made it even better.
- I'd really like to thank Na Rae. - Gosh, no problem.
I've always missed you guys.
I'm not sure how much you guys have been missing me.
If you miss me,
raise your hands.
(Me, me!)
- Not a single person raised a hand. - I raised my hand.
Anyway, it's fine. I'll raise my hand.
I miss you all.
I hope the day will come...
when I'll celebrate the 500th episode.
Forever, the Rainbow Club!
- Forever! - Yes!
A lot of our members sent us congratulatory messages like this.
We'd like to thank all of you again. Thank you.
Many of them haven't been here in a long time.
- That's right. - It was so nice seeing them.
But the congratulatory message is not all.
We still have the highlight of the opening...
for the 400th episode left.
- Will there be a performance? - What is it?
I hope that it won't be any of us.
- It's you, right? - No.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we invited a guest singer.
Right here?
- Yes, right here. - Please don't do it.
- Please. - It was hard for us...
- to get this celebrity on the show. - Who could that be?
- BTS? - Oh, my.
- Is it j-hope? Really? - What?
(j-hope, you will come on our show, right?)
(Did j-hope accept Kian84's invitation?)
- No way. He must be busy. - I don't think so.
He must be too busy to be here.
Is it G-DRAGON? G-DRAGON?
No way.
He could be here.
(Did G-DRAGON respond to Kian84's performance?)
- Really? - All right.
Now, let's meet our guest.
Home Alone, the 400th episode special.
The super special guest singer is here.
Please come out!
I suddenly have goosebumps.
What's going on? Oh, my. What's this?
(The lighting suddenly changed!)
(The door is opening.)
- What? - Who is it?
(With long steps,)
(the super special guest is walking in.)
(Screaming)
(Surprised)
(His jaw dropped.)
- Oh, my gosh! - Sometimes
(Laughing)
(Sometimes it takes so long to come home)
What is it?
(I get more tired)
- What's going on? - He seems to feel awkward.
As soon as I open the door
We feel embarrassed...
as well as him.
(Stepping backward)
(He feels embarrassed for some reason.)
(In the bathtub)
(Simon Dominic is singing in harmony.)
(He's singing slightly off beat on purpose.)
I thought there was actually a word between "small" and "snail".
(The guest singer continues singing even though he's embarrassed.)
(The cast members are busy hiding as they feel embarrassed too.)
- Why can't you look at him? - It's so embarrassing.
It feels strange since we haven't seen him in a while.
- Come on. He's singing for us. - I feel so awkward.
I'm listening to him.
(They're all gathering in a corner.)
(They're getting further from the guest.)
I can't bear to watch him. At least you should see him singing.
(I'm happy to see him again but it's too embarrassing.)
You should watch his performance. He's here to celebrate with us.
(Hyun Moo is slowly approaching them.)
He's coming toward us. He's coming.
He keeps coming toward us.
(As he goes on singing his heart out...)
(Walking away from him)
Guys, let's join them.
- Why are you guys standing there? - My everything
Why would he sing the second verse too?
- You're right. That's enough. - Why won't he stop singing?
- I can't stand it any longer, - Come out.
- to be honest. Okay. - Come over here.
(He stopped singing as per everyone's request.)
- That was amazing. - Oh, my.
Congratulations, everyone.
- That was amazing. - Oh, my. Finally, he's back.
- We meet again here. - I'm so excited.
- The super special guest, - I feel like he's an outsider.
the former president of the Rainbow Club, Jun Hyun Moo!
It's good to see you again.
(He was so nervous that his mouth got dry.)
Oh, gosh. My mouth is getting dry.
I should do something about it. Excuse me for a second.
(He was so nervous...)
(that he rushed into the bathroom.)
Why am I so nervous?
(He was all fidgety while waiting outside.)
I didn't expect to see the studio decorated so nicely.
You're still on the screen.
Oh, that... I wish it were photoshopped...
He looks as if he popped out of the screen.
- Why did you put on the old shirt? - Isn't that the old shirt?
- Why didn't you shave your face? - This is new.
- I thought you were wearing a mask. - I heard you saying that.
- Please stand in the middle. - Please come.
- Please say hello to our viewers. - Okay.
Well... Which camera should I look at? I see.
- Why are you acting so awkward? - I do feel awkward.
- Don't be like that. - I didn't think I'd feel this way.
Me neither.
My mouth is getting dry.
- My gosh. I also feel... - I feel like I should lick this.
That's how thirsty I am now.
Which one should I look at? Okay.
Hello. I'm back after 2 years and 3 months.
I'm the former president Jun Hyun Moo. It's good to see you.
How exciting. Welcome.
(As soon as he joined Home Alone in September 2013,)
(he was appointed as the president of the Rainbow Club.)
(He became the center of the Rainbow Club.)
(But due to the aftereffect of Yun Kyun Sang's knee kick,)
(he had no choice but to leave Home Alone.)
(Let's say that was the reason.)
- You came here after a long time. - Yes.
How do you feel?
I'd like to ask you guys the same question.
I heard you talking about BTS and G-DRAGON.
(When Na Rae was introducing the special guest,)
(Hyun Moo was hearing them in front of the door.)
(When they guessed BTS would come,)
(Hyun Moo lowered his head.)
(He closed his eyes when they expected j-hope.)
(As their guesses were so far from him,)
(Hyun Moo seemed more and more worried.)
He could be here.
Honestly, I'm star-struck right now.
How can you say that even after watching that?
(The black mask)
- I look so funny. - Why were you looking like that?
- Back then, I was doing farming. - Farming?
Are you serious?
I watched the preview at the end of last week's episode.
It looked like an award ceremony.
- A lady in a red dress appeared. - Yes, it seemed like...
- she would be our guest. - Actually...
- Why aren't you wearing a dress? - A dress?
Just as you said, they raised the viewers' expectations.
So I checked the online comments too.
- Really? - What did people say?
I expected to see some comments about me.
I was worried if people might figure it out too soon.
But I didn't see any comments about me.
It reminded me of a scene of a drama.
There was only one person...
who hoped that it would be me. Only one person said that.
Did you write that comment?
I wasn't logged in when I read the comments.
Someone left such a comment.
What if everyone but that person gets disappointed?
I'm a little worried as well.
- That won't happen. - People will be happy to see you.
- Thank you for saying that. - They will be very happy.
It feels as if...
(What?)
As if a teacher who transferred to another school came back.
That's so discouraging.
- His jacket makes him look old too. - Oh, a teacher?
- He's wearing this jacket... - I know.
- I wanted to dress up. - He's all dressed up.
Aren't you going to get married?
We're all curious about it.
(They suddenly started asking questions about his marriage.)
I don't think I should talk about it on this show.
- Then where will you reveal it? - On "The Manager".
- What? - Come on.
I mean, if you think about the purpose of this show...
We need you to live alone...
- so we can see you on this show. - I understand.
But if he can't get married this time, I'm sure...
- Stop it. That's enough. - Okay.
You're ruining the mood as you used to.
I haven't improved as an entertainer.
I won't be helpful.
By the way...
You are back for good, right?
- Yes, I guess. - He said yes.
- The crown is heavy, you know. - Of course.
Since you left the show,
the first scene was... I'm not sure if you remember it.
- Only Kian84 and I were here. - There were only the two of them.
Try to imagine...
that Na Rae became the host of this show,
but with her, there were me, Henry,
- and Si Eon in the studio. - Right.
We were all saying whatever we wanted to say.
It must've been hard for her.
- I realized how important you were. - I see.
- He has a great presence. - You were incredible on our show.
The 1st guest of the 400th episode special is...
- What? - Oh, my.
- After 2 years and 3 months, - Are you serious?
- he came back to us. - What?
My gosh. He was determined to come back.
- This is great. - He already made up his mind.
If I just talked with you guys in the studio...
- It would be meaningless. - Exactly.
- Why... - It must've been a hard decision.
I decided to reveal my daily life.
We won't see him washing Wilson or anything like that, right?
Hyun Moo's daily life!
I'm so curious how he's been doing.
It will be revealed at last.
- Let's watch the video. - I was so surprised.
I hope that the ratings will soar.
- It's been more than two years. - Of course, we'll get high ratings.
We've been getting high ratings.
- Slating. 1, 2, 3. - I'm so excited.
Have you been well, Hyun Moo?
- I was so surprised. - Right?
(The Strange Scenery Around the Returned Man)
- Is he at a temple? - Did you move to a temple?
Really?
(Birds chirping)
(You can hear birds like in the woods.)
- Oh, he moved to a new house. - What's going on?
Did you really move to a temple?
(He's rubbing his eyes as he wakes up.)
(Here's our today's star.)
(Sighing)
Hello. I haven't been on the show in 2 years and 3 months.
I'm the former president Jun Hyun Moo.
(Wearing a black mask)
- Why didn't you shave your face? - Oh, I guess this is it.
- This is it. - My gosh.
He looked just like that in his video message.
Actually,
I don't usually watch any shows where I don't appear.
But I've been watching Home Alone for the past 2 years and 3 months.
It's none other than anyone else's show.
The cast members were like my family.
He's acting awkward.
- Indeed. - What's wrong with him?
All these lights around me...
and the fact that I haven't been on this show in a long time...
make me feel very nervous.
It's not like he's apologizing.
He should've worn a suit if he was going to speak in that tone.
- Exactly. - Gosh. Sung Hoon became so tough.
He used to be innocent.
- We all changed. - He became a good entertainer.
Absolutely.
You changed me into this before you left.
- He got tough to get more air time. - Exactly.
- He used to be so innocent. - I know.
Now he's like a venomous snake.
(Venomous Snake Sung Hoon)
(Because of excitement,)
(he tossed and turned all night long.)
(Groaning)
(Yawning)
(He's getting up after a big yawn.)
Right. That's not the same house we saw before.
That's not the same house.
- Where is he? - What is that place?
(He's going out of the room.)
(Is this...)
(a hanok?)
- My goodness. - What?
Is that a hanok?
This is a house for a hanok stay program...
located in Bukchon Hanok Village.
A hanok stay program?
(A hanok for a hanok stay program in Bukchon Hanok Village)
What's a hanok stay program?
- I moved out of my old house. - Living in a hanok.
(Let's just move on. I should force myself to smile.)
Oh, that's what "stay" means.
Do you need me to explain the program?
- He asked what it is. - I see.
Watching Hyun Moo talking on this show,
I feel like I traveled to the past using a time machine.
He's not that old.
- As if I'm meeting my ancestor. - Your ancestor?
You used to say that I looked like I was 600 years old.
(The Donghak Movement generation)
(He used to carry things in wrapping cloth instead of a bag.)
(He owns a rickshaw license too.)
(The 600-year-old man)
- That's why he's living in a hanok. - Right.
Exactly.
- To feel the ancestors' spirits. - That's not the case.
My new house is under construction now.
I was going to stay there only for a month.
But it went on longer than I thought.
So I moved to my parents' house.
But I hated to hear my mom nagging at me so much.
So I asked if I could stay there again.
I said I would stay there...
only when no exhibitions were held. That's why I'm staying there.
Mothers don't nag at their children around his age.
- True. - My mom nags at me like crazy.
We know that. We saw...
My mom still tells me to cross a pedestrian overpass.
Really?
Instead of crossing the street to avoid cars.
Does she still tell you to be careful with water and fire?
Even if I want to, there aren't many pedestrian overpasses nowadays.
That's true.
- Exactly. - There's no pedestrian overpass.
I guess all mothers are the same.
A few years ago, I was playing a game at an internet cafe.
My mom called me.
I picked up and said, "Hello?"
She asked where I was, so I said I was at an internet cafe.
She said, "There must be a lot of thugs."
- Thugs? - It was like that in the past.
- I said, "Mom, I'm 33." - Thugs?
- My goodness. - I'm 45.
And my mom tells me to use a pedestrian overpass.
There's none I can cross, you know.
"My sweet baby is 45."
(The place where he can be liberated from the nagging)
(Hyun Moo's nagging free zone will be revealed now.)
- My, that's nice. - Isn't it nice?
It's hard to believe that there's a house like that in Seoul.
(You can avoid the rain and sunlight...)
(and enjoy cool breezes on the wooden porch.)
(If you go inside,)
(there's a place to relax that calms your mind.)
(At the back,)
(there's a clean, modernized kitchen.)
(On the other side of the house,)
(there's a room to read books!)
I have already stayed here for a month.
I've stayed here for quite some time.
(The photos of him taken in the house)
(Peekaboo)
Oh, that was the one I saw.
- I guess he actually stayed there. - Exactly.
- I've seen this photo. - You have?
- Where did you see it? - Is it really temporary?
I don't remember, but it's all over the internet.
That's not possible. I didn't post it on the internet.
At first, it felt a little strange.
I can hear all the noises from outside.
- The walls don't block out noises. - True.
I can even hear people whispering in the alley.
It felt strange but I enjoyed it.
Also, I don't wake up by alarms...
but by the sound of birds.
(Chirping)
Right across the street...
Even that does not sound right to describe the distance.
There's an elementary school right in front of the house.
So when I'm in the bedroom,
I can tell what subject they're learning.
- That sounds so great. - I'm not lying.
I can hear what they say.
I realized that's why people live in a hanok.
I fell in love with hanok after about a week.
Because you can hear other people living their days.
(He listens carefully to tell what subject it is.)
(Then he's going to the bathroom.)
(Brushing his teeth)
My goodness, he has so much facial hair.
That's harsh for your first comment.
All you care about is his facial hair?
You could've asked about his daily life.
I didn't mean it like that.
(As for the facial hair that drew Hwasa's attention...)
(Goodbye for now.)
(He's washing his face too!)
(He got out of the bathroom after washing up.)
Did you really shave your face?
I shaved until I bled.
(Before and after shaving)
(He can't get rid of the black mask even by shaving.)
(He came out to the yard after the pointless shaving.)
(His laundry is drying in the yard!)
(The 1st Rainbow Club Reunion, February 2016)
My goodness.
(The towel with old memories)
I still wear the T-shirt...
- from Na Rae's Summer School. - Right?
The logo on the chest has worn off.
I can never throw it out.
I still have the towel he gave us at Hyun Woo's Summer School.
- I see. - I used it as a towel at first.
Then I used it as a rag unintentionally.
I felt bad about it, so I'm using it as a towel again.
You're using it as a towel again...
because you're sorry?
Just use it as a rag. You don't have to feel bad about it.
(He came out to the yard and...)
- Is he making a fire in a furnace? - Where is it?
No.
(Rummaging)
Gosh, they all ran away.
Do you have a pet animal?
I thought those were perilla leaves.
Oh, I found one.
Were you hiding under there?
- That's a snail. - Oh, I see.
Is that why you sang "Snail" earlier?
- Yes, it was foreshadowing. - Oh, wow.
- What a coincidence. - My gosh.
Hyun Moo, a character that's a snail...
has been appearing in my cartoon for several weeks.
- Really? - But I got a lot of criticisms.
- He's getting a lot of criticisms. - Are you still getting criticized?
- Yes. - What's wrong with your cartoon?
A snail appeared in his cartoon.
I didn't intend to raise a snail.
The night before that day, it rained.
I was sitting on the porch,
and I saw something wriggling.
You caught the snail.
I caught the snail and put it in that box.
Then I saw ten more snails where I found this snail.
You must've been excited.
I haven't seen a snail that closely since I was a little boy.
Looking at it up close, I found it so cute.
I was so fascinated...
that I zoned out while watching the snail last night.
I zoned out while watching it.
I watched it all day long.
I watched it for 40 minutes very closely.
(The 45-year-old Hyun Moo is into a snail.)
(A piece of carrot to feed the snail)
Go on and eat some more.
(He can't take his eyes off the tiny snail.)
It looks like there's been a change in his lifestyle.
It feels as if his grandchildren will come to visit him shortly.
- His grandchildren? - Come on.
I should get married first.
- Of course. - Yes.
How would he have grandchildren when he's not even married?
(He's walking out to the yard.)
(After looking up at the sky,)
(he got on a yoga mat?)
What's that?
- Is he doing yoga? - It's a yoga mat.
- Come on. - I bet that's scripted.
- He did it just for the show. - You should...
Hyun Moo, you can't do this.
Keep watching and find out what I actually do.
If I do yoga, then I'll admit it's scripted.
(He lied down on the foam roller.)
(Raising his arms)
(He's doing stretching.)
Oh, he's doing stretching.
It may seem easy,
- but it hurts so much. - It does hurt.
- And it's good for your health. - Right.
- It's really good for health. - But you used to watch TV...
or lie on your bed on your days off.
(He used to take a nap...)
(Using an unusual item)
(Or he watched TV.)
(Instead of watching TV,)
(he's looking at the sky.)
(He started stretching his thighs.)
I would've thought he was putting on a show,
but I can tell that he actually knows how to do it.
(Groaning)
I used to do the exercises...
that were popular just to show to others.
- I learned Zumba... - I remember that.
- and hired a personal trainer. - Yes, that too.
I also rode a bicycle because it was popular.
I didn't do those things because I wanted to.
It was just for show.
Now the reason for exercising is myself, not other people.
Yes.
(He's enduring the pain for his own sake.)
(Screaming)
(There's a rock under the mat.)
Oh, no.
(Groaning)
(There are a lot of rocks in his yard.)
(He's going to stretch the front thighs this time.)
That hurts so much.
(Screaming)
(Rocks keep hurting him through the mat.)
- My goodness. - That looks...
It really hurts.
(Will he do a plank this time?)
- He's doing a plank. - A plank too?
- That must hurt so much. - I can hold it for three minutes.
- Really? - That means you're so good at it.
It's really hard to hold a plank for three minutes.
(With his eyes closed,)
(will he hold the position?)
That's unbelievable.
It's hard to hold a plank for three minutes.
- You should lower your hips. - Just a little bit.
Then I wouldn't be able to hold it for more than 30 seconds.
I wonder if holding that position for three minutes is helpful.
- It's better than not doing it. - True.
(Played 5 times faster)
(It's a slightly meaningless pose,)
(but he still does his best.)
- My goodness. - They even timed it.
- Of course they did. - They are amazing.
(He thoroughly stretches the other parts too.)
(He stretches his arms too.)
Long time no see.
(He spots Wilson only now.)
(Every place he moved,)
(Wilson was with him.)
My goodness, I remember.
Right. Right.
(Hyun Moo sacrificed his bottom for Wilson.)
(He made Wilson look like a cookie.)
- Wilson. - That's really heavy, you know.
(He even threw Wilson too.)
You have a lot of memories with Wilson.
(They reunited after a long time.)
You are still awkward. You don't know what to say.
(Wilson became shy while he's been away.)
Something smells delicious.
(Smelling)
It's open, so you can smell all the delicious things.
If the next-door neighbor cooks doenjang jjigae, you smell it.
- That's the old lifestyle. - That's the best.
That never happens when you live in an apartment.
(Where is he going now?)
(He walks barefoot.)
(He enters the kitchen.)
(He washes his hands first.)
Gosh, I am hungry.
(After a workout, he became hungry.)
Shall I get going?
Let's see.
(Hyun Moo's Favorite, Number 1: Frozen food)
(Hyun Moo's Favorite, Number 2: Ramyeon)
Right. You eat like a child.
(What did the man with a child's palate choose?)
(Coconut oil and onion)
Coconut oil?
I stopped eating frozen food.
- You stopped eating frozen food? - I don't eat frozen food.
I still eat ramyeon, but I try to eat less of it.
(Slicing)
(He peels the onion skillfully.)
- I am a terrible cook, you know. - Gosh.
He changed a lot.
Peeled onion is...
so much more expensive than unpeeled onion.
- Right. - Of course.
The price difference is huge.
(It's the new fact he came to learn after 40.)
(He slices it well too.)
(What are you making?)
Detox soup.
- Detox soup? - Detox soup?
In the past, I got Botox injections.
And I got a lot of laser treatments.
But that's wrong. You need to be healthy inside.
That way, your skin ages less and you lose less hair.
- Right. - Right.
I came to find the YouTube channel called...
"Daily Moonsook".
(He learned to cook a detox soup...)
(from Moon Sook, the actress.)
How long have you been eating like this then?
It's been about a month.
- Really? - My goodness.
But he still doesn't look too healthy.
- He doesn't look healthy. - I look so old.
(He works towards a complete detox.)
(Daily Hyunmoo)
(In goes the coconut oil, which is good for health.)
In goes the coconut oil.
(Add the chopped onion...)
(and fry until it gets translucent.)
(Working hard)
(He stirs with a plastic rice paddle.)
My goodness.
It's a detox soup,
- and you're using a plastic paddle. - A plastic paddle.
That releases bad chemicals.
That's why my face isn't getting any better.
That's why you look the same.
(Hyun Moo detoxifies and toxifies his body at the same time.)
I think that's it.
(While the onion gets fried, he prepares the next ingredient.)
(Carrot)
(Celery)
(Zucchini)
(He adds a generous amount of vegetables good for health.)
(He adds enough water too.)
(He doesn't forget to add the bad chemicals.)
(Dancing)
My goodness. He's excited, not knowing that.
He's dancing too.
(He's excited to get healthier.)
Let's intensify the aroma.
- My goodness. The vegetables... - It's getting more bad chemicals.
(He sticks to the original recipe.)
I can't tell if it's going to be good for him or not.
(He adds soaked lentils and boils them.)
(The detox soup is done.)
There.
(Hyun Moo goes somewhere.)
(He goes to the bathroom.)
(Struggling)
(He fills the tub with water.)
They say a lower-body bath has great health benefits.
I believe a lower-body bath is better than a full-body bath.
I can't stay in hot water for too long.
So I can't do it for a long time. I last for about 5 to 10 minutes.
I try to do it once every 2, 3 days.
I'm sorry, but I think I need to see a dermatologist.
- You need to get laser treatments. - I need to get laser treatments.
And Botox.
I look terrible.
Gosh, it's so hot.
(He's got very delicate skin.)
Gosh, will it get filled within the day?
Now that you're older, you care so much about your health.
When you reach my age, you feel it.
Your intuition tells you.
If I don't take care of my health now,
- You will suffer later. - I will get into huge trouble.
You feel it when you are a little over 40.
(Sighing)
You don't know now. I didn't know when I was in my mid-30s.
I ate ramyeon and slept.
Now that I live like that,
my body feels lighter.
(Listening attentively)
(While the bathtub is being filled...)
(I won't stop)
Which song is that? "I won't stop"?
(He wants to listen to music.)
My gosh.
I will play IU's song.
Her song is great. It suits the hanok atmosphere.
Right.
(It's a song perfect for hanok.)
("Love Poem" by IU)
How can one write a song like this?
(Let us tell you about Hyun Moo)
He should be singing a song like that.
- That was in Gyeongju. - That was in Gyeongju.
It was really funny.
(He specializes in doing all kinds of idol dances.)
(He waves his stomach instead of his hip.)
Right. "Moocury".
(He used to sing loudly and frivolously.)
It's still circulating on YouTube.
(All right!)
- That was crazy. - Super Mario.
(But now he listens to quiet and emotional songs.)
(It's as if they are in the same hanok.)
(He's immersed in IU's emotion.)
When you listen to it there, it's as if IU's in the next room.
(The tears you swallow)
That town is just so quiet.
It's really nice.
Perhaps she's actually in the next room?
(You walk alone, and I'm behind you)
(The collaboration of Moo U and IU)
(This song will never stop)
(The moment your long night)
(Ends)
You still sing the same.
You die if you change too much.
(I will be there)
(Impressed)
Bravo, bravo.
(Moo U finishes singing with satisfaction.)
(Right.)
- The soup? - The bath.
(He checks the soup first.)
- It gets reduced like that. - It sounds good.
(He tastes it once.)
Yum.
(He's busy.)
He's so busy.
Oh, no.
(He quickly checks the tub.)
I will do the lower-body bath for a while first.
- That's... - That's not for a lower-body bath.
This isn't considered a lower-body bath, you know.
- That's a full-body bath. - Usually, it comes up to here.
The water is supposed to stay below your heart, right?
I failed to control the amount of water.
Isn't it better to go to the public bathhouse?
I don't want to see you doing the lower-body bath.
(Ragged)
Sung Hoon became so tough.
But seriously.
Goodness gracious.
(Fortunately, the bathrobe protects our eyes.)
(He carefully checks the water temperature.)
(Dipping his toe)
It's hot. Gosh.
(Making animal sound)
(Fascinated)
(What's wrong with him?)
(He transforms into a monkey.)
I know that.
That's so hot.
(The hot temperature made him hit all the high notes.)
That's so hot.
(Gosh.)
Gosh, that's hot.
Isn't it too hot?
(He still can't give up singing.)
(Taking the robe off)
- Look at his body. - He got slimmer.
You didn't see the front side yet.
(Tucking in the stomach)
For you
(His legs turned red.)
Here... It's hot!
(Here I am)
Stop... It's hot!
(Is he getting cooked?)
The bathtub looks small.
(Holding his two hands tightly)
Listen
It's hot!
- Gosh. - That was hot.
(Happy)
(The hot water got him excited again.)
- You still have chest hair. - I still have it.
(Is he protecting his chest hair?)
(Finally, his chest hair appeared.)
Your chest hair is still full.
I lost some hair there too.
But people who suffer from hair loss don't lose chest hair.
It's so hot.
It's too hot.
It's hot.
- Gosh, this is... - Isn't this like seaweed soup?
It's like seaweed soup.
It's too hot.
- His face got cooked. - It's hot.
(It's been 3 minutes.)
(It's been 4 minutes.)
It stayed hot for so long.
I should stop.
- It's too hot. - I look too ugly, don't I?
- No. - It's serious.
I'm tired.
(It's been 5 minutes.)
Maybe you burnt yourself?
- My legs got burnt. - Were you okay?
- He turned red. - He needs to see a doctor.
(In just 5 minutes, his body turned red.)
(He sings to get through the heat.)
It's so hot. No. No. This is too hot.
They need to blur my body.
Hyun Moo.
(He's repulsed by his own body.)
- His body's red. - It became so red.
It's crazy.
(They finally comply with the broadcasting regulations.)
My goodness.
I was cooked medium-rare.
(From a distance, he looks like a baby angel.)
That's hideous.
How can they put that there?
- The baby angel. - Why didn't you cover up?
I apologize to the baby angel.
It's blurred.
You said there was an elementary school nearby.
- Why do you walk around like that? - Look at the wings.
You said there was an elementary school nearby.
The kids would think of you as a strange person.
Kids can't see me.
- That's good news. - That's funny.
My legs got cooked.
- His legs turned red. - My legs got cooked.
It must've been so hot.
You should stop doing the lower-body bath for your health.
I should stop doing it. I will get rid of it.
(Dizzy)
(He's exhausted.)
(The lower-body bath drained his energy.)
(And he tries to refuel his body with the detox soup.)
Gosh, it's...
- It's good. - I'm curious.
It's good.
- Do you eat rice with it? - I don't eat rice.
- You only eat that? - You only eat that?
- Really? - That's filling enough.
It smells good though.
I will make it look pretty. One bay leaf.
- He eats a lot. - He won't stop.
- Right. - He won't stop.
(Sweating)
- Look at that sweat. - It's hot.
(He takes his soup and goes to the front yard.)
(Sunken eyes)
(The 5-minute lower-body bath made him look older.)
Shouldn't you blur out that face?
I look too ugly there.
(He asked to blur out his face as well as his body.)
It's delicious.
- Am I sweating because of this? - That looks good.
- It's good. - I'm curious.
Or am I sweating because of the lower-body bath?
It's so hot.
He's still sweating.
(Sweat pours down.)
I need to get the laser treatment.
My face is a mess.
Botox and laser treatment.
- You should go back to that. - I will make an appointment.
Detox soup won't do it. Go back as soon as possible.
Inner beauty is nonsense.
(Laughing)
Gosh, my legs are still red.
What?
(Raining)
- What's going on? - What?
- Is it raining? - That's so nice.
That's the best.
The rain sound is the best.
- It's the best. - It's perfect timing.
Isn't it too sudden?
What?
- The laundry. - Gosh.
What? Just like that?
It's raining all of a sudden?
Hey, hey, hey.
Gosh, this is bad.
Gosh.
Will you get the duvets?
- Who's saying that? - Who's that?
- It's the neighbor. - The neighbor.
They need to get the duvets too.
The next-door neighbor is getting the laundry too.
- I haven't heard that in a while. - It brings back the memories.
- It was like that in the past. - Right.
(He takes down the laundry...)
(and throws them.)
Thank goodness.
(The fuss is over.)
(He drained his energy without eating.)
It's raining so suddenly. Gosh.
(Finally, he starts eating.)
Gosh, this is so good.
(He eats the healthy meal with the bird sound.)
(Yum.)
Good.
By the way, that's the best routine.
You stretch and eat healthy food...
while sweating.
It just worked out perfectly.
(He eats a healthy meal for himself.)
(It took a long time to cook, but he finishes eating it quickly.)
Gosh, that was a good meal.
- I'm full. - You will get sleepy now.
- I'll get sleepy. - You need to take a nap.
That's my routine.
(After having a meal, he sits next to Wilson.)
I was with him for four and a half years,
but I felt awkward around him.
It's strange.
Gosh, this is nice.
- That looks so good. - It's raining again.
It's best to stay home when it rains.
(Good scenery and the sound of nature)
The sound of kids playing and the sound of the birds.
(Dewy eyes)
It's as if he's dying soon.
I thought that too.
- Like "The Last Leaf". - Right.
(This is him being very happy.)
Gosh.
Nothing special happened to make me feel this way,
but I think I'm feeling the turning-40 blues.
I feel like I'm going through the puberty I never went through.
- Right. - He got emotional.
- Right. - It's complex.
I think I'm feeling burnt out too.
When I was doing the most number of shows,
I hosted a morning radio show every morning.
I was on ten TV shows.
I had no daily life.
My voice was gone.
- My face was swollen. - Right.
I became so unhealthy.
K.Will told me...
that I might die if I went on living like this.
He suddenly told me that on the stage.
So many people around me worried about me.
That shocked me.
I gradually reduced the number of shows.
I have days off now.
I didn't have any days off in the past.
Staying in hanok,
I am not getting lost in thoughts or having great thoughts.
I just sit and empty my mind.
I just enjoy the breeze and listen to music.
I just stay still.
I try to have more time for myself.
And it helps with my mental health.
You do look so much better now.
- You look better than before. - Compared to before.
(After resting well in nature...)
(Please help me forget everything)
(He flops down while humming.)
(He calls someone.)
(Loud beats)
What's this?
Why did it become so passionate all of a sudden?
Hello?
- Hello. Are you outside? - Yes.
It's your mom.
- Why do you keep sending this? - Who?
Why do you send things like "Things to avoid in your 40s"?
- Why do you keep sending it to me? - My goodness.
Read them all carefully.
It's really easy to lose attention to your health.
So be careful, Hyun Moo.
(Even some years ago...)
(You need to lose weight.)
(You should eat at home.)
(You need to work out.)
(I should just go to bed.)
- So be careful, Hyun Moo. - She's still the same.
- She hasn't changed one bit. - You're at the age...
where you must take care of your body.
You're in your 40s.
You're in your mid-40s.
What is this about?
"The more you walk, the better it is." What's this about?
Don't send me such things. I don't read them anyway.
Try reading them.
It says it's better to walk a lot and on a regular basis...
instead of walking fast or with much energy.
- I'm so sick of it already. - My goodness.
- My gosh. - It's so real.
I was going to see my mom today, but I shouldn't.
I'm already feeling out of it.
- Get a grip. - What is...
"Get a grip"? I got my life under control.
You always tell me that.
So how am I supposed to walk?
It's saying you should walk a lot.
It's the same old theory, and they made it wordy.
You should read them.
Those things will alert you.
Stop sending me these, and you should take care of your health.
I will do that,
- so you should watch what you eat. - Okay, okay.
- My goodness. - Okay, okay.
- Okay. - Bye.
Gosh, she says the same thing every day.
She told me to be careful when I'm in my 30s,
and she's saying the same thing in my 40s.
She'll say the same thing in my 50s...
and in my 60s.
She told me to be careful even when I was in my 20s.
(Moreover)
(That's how every mother is like.)
She told me I would be different from when I was a teenager.
When you were a teenager?
Of course, you're different when you're in your 20s.
(Hyun Moo is going through the turning-40 blues.)
- It rained a lot that day. - It's the sound of rain.
(He takes a seat on the wooden porch.)
Wilson.
Let me borrow your lap.
(Moaning)
Gosh, it's nice.
I fell asleep right away on that wooden porch.
It must have been sweet after sweating a lot.
(Sleeping on Wilson's lap,)
(Hyun Moo lies down under the eaves with beautiful scenery.)
It must have been nice.
(Hyun Moo can't help but hum.)
(Exhausted)
I look like a corpse.
(Hyun Moo criticizes his own look.)
I'm like a Korean zombie.
Korean zombie.
Look at him.
- Is he okay? - He got much better, in fact.
Kian84 is right. I looked worse before.
(Hyun Moo is spending his prime time.)
(He quietly falls asleep.)
(He suddenly gets up.)
What's going on?
(Having a close look)
Is he looking at the snail?
(He suddenly checks up on the snail box.)
It ran away.
Gosh, it ran away.
Where did it go? It must be very fast.
(Hyun Moo is looking for the snail that ran away.)
Oh, it's here!
- I could have stepped on it. Look. - Right.
- You are here. - You can't spot it there.
Should I bring it home?
(He can't take his eyes off the snail.)
Are you looking at me?
(Sweet)
Why didn't you stick it on your body if you were that worried?
You could have put it on top of your chest hair.
He is right.
I was afraid it would eat my chest hair.
It shouldn't eat my chest hair.
(Hyun Moo is being careful about what the snail eats.)
I just can't help but pay more attention to it.
You can tell who they all are from their looks?
Yes, I can tell from their sizes.
Why do you keep running away?
Show me your mouth. What? You're mad?
(Hyun Moo is so into this snail.)
(After a loving shot)
Here. Enjoy yourself here.
(Don't go anywhere. Enjoy yourself here.)
You keep running away whenever I fall asleep. Stay still.
He has nobody to talk to.
- So he talks to the snail. - To the snail.
Don't run away again.
(Stay right next to me.)
(He lies down again after putting the snail back into the box.)
Gosh, these raindrops and tinkling sounds of the wind-bell are amazing.
(Hyun Moo feels the raindrops as he stretches out his hand.)
Gosh, it's cool.
(Hyun Moo stretches his arm to vividly feel the raindrops.)
I can't believe he touched those raindrops.
It's like a super cool ASMR.
(The tinkling sound of the wind-bell is a perfect source of ASMR.)
No music sounds better than this.
The sound of nature.
(As he listens to the best piece of music,)
(he takes a sweet nap.)
I was busy checking up my phone...
while lying down on my sofa...
when I didn't work during the day because my apartment was quiet.
I did that all the time.
Everybody does that.
I decided not to use my phone.
I just wanted to look at the sky and feel the wind.
The best part of all is the sound of raindrops.
I didn't really pay attention to them because I was always inside.
When I was sitting down on that porch,
I was enjoying those charming raindrops.
It was better than any other song.
That is like a perfect vacation.
I didn't bring my TV there.
- Right. - But you love TV so much.
(He glances at the snail again.)
Gosh, it keeps trying to get out of the box.
I told you to stick that on your body.
(Struggling)
Do you want to get out?
I think highly of your persistence.
- Look at that. - Goodness.
I should let you go since you try so hard.
I should let it go.
(Hyun Moo decides to let the snail go.)
All right.
Go back to your home.
Here. Go back to your home.
Hurry. Go.
(Cheering)
You're doing a great job.
You are so happy, aren't you?
(Cheering)
Go, snail. Go, snail.
(The snail tries its best to go back to where it belongs.)
You made it.
Bye.
(Bye.)
Well, good luck.
(Bye, snail. Good luck.)
The snail doesn't even turn back.
(The snail doesn't even turn back and carries on.)
Bye.
(Bye.)
Gosh, it's so cute.
(It's really leaving.)
- It moved me. - I know.
Me too.
(Sorrowful)
You get affectionate about little things when you get old.
I even named the snail.
It's Nompaeng.
(It's perfect for the snail.)
I named it Nompaeng because it doesn't do much.
I can't say that I almost teared up.
But I just felt sad.
He really is feeling the turning-40 blues.
(A call that will comfort Hyun Moo)
Hello.
"This is KB Financial Group."
Nothing makes me happy.
(The call just broke all the sentimental mood.)
What time is it?
Gosh, time flies.
I should get going.
(Let's go out and get some air.)
Let's go. I'll be back, Wilson.
(Opening his umbrella)
Gosh, it looks really cool that he leaves his place with that vibe.
Yes, it looks really cool.
- You have a different look. - You think so?
Your outfit looks much neater.
(Hyun Moo's cool outing)
(It's raining and it reminds me of you)
He sings even more often than singers.
I know. He sings more often than I do.
He loves singing so much.
Gosh, it's really nice here even when it's raining.
The town has a cool vibe.
The town looks really cool.
I feel like I belong to this town now.
I got used to this town.
(Amazed)
It's nice.
(Walking)
(He walks around the town as he listens to the raindrops.)
They put you in slow motion.
They edit this scene like that for him?
I walked around this place a lot as I stayed here for a month.
I intentionally parked my car far away from the place...
so that I can walk around the town.
I have to cross the street to get to the parking lot.
I couldn't have come to places like this...
when I was traveling in my car.
I can get anywhere with my foot.
I can just get to cool cafes with nice concepts.
I can just have a cup of coffee and walk around the town.
I have so much fun walking around the town these days.
It's nice.
You can't get to those places if you travel in your car.
You wouldn't even know if they exist.
It's quiet here today.
(Hyun Moo reaches this place as he walks around the town.)
Hello.
I think Kian84 would love it there.
- What is it? - Is it a stationery store?
They don't have a lot of people here today.
It's a toy shop.
- It's very small. - A toy shop.
I love this place. It's amazing.
- Goodness. - It looks great.
(Hyun Moo takes a tour.)
(Goodness!)
You are Buzz Lightyear that looks exactly like me.
- Buzz Lightyear. - Buzz.
People say it looks like me.
(Let's look around first.)
Everything is catching my eyes. What should I buy?
- Hyun Moo loves to buy toys. - I do.
There are so many Buzz Lightyear toys.
My goodness.
There are so many "Toy Story" toys.
The owner is obsessed with Buzz.
Buzz.
- You like Buzz, right? - Yes.
Why do you like it?
People say that I look like Buzz.
We resemble each other.
(They do resemble each other.)
People say I look like you.
- Do they say you look like me? - Yes.
Would you pull down the mask a bit?
The mask is covering your face.
- I can't tell from your eyes. - I can't tell.
(He is curious about the owner's face.)
You are Jun Hyun Moo.
- He has Jun Hyun Moo's face. - Jun Hyun Moo's face.
Bukchon's Jun Hyun Moo.
- I will be moving to a new house, - Really?
so I want to decorate it.
Please recommend some toys. I would prefer Buzz...
- since it resembles us. - Buzz.
Would you like some action figures?
It's the same size as it is in the movie.
Then I should buy these two.
This one and that one.
I will buy two.
Since they are heavy, I will pick them up later.
- Okay. - Thank you.
You can do that since you are in the neighborhood.
Okay. Thank you.
It's cool. His hobby and job are the same.
- Hello. - Hello.
(He greets someone soon.)
Whenever I pass by,
you are drinking instead of working.
You are always drinking.
The owner?
What is this place?
It's a cafe.
It looks like you are enjoying life.
- Okay. See you later. - Okay.
Gosh, I finally said hello to him.
Everyone is enjoying life.
(He keeps walking after meeting his neighbors.)
Is it break time?
It's running without a break.
(He enters a store.)
(Ringing)
- Hello. - Hello.
- Hello. - You are a regular.
She greeted him with enthusiasm.
It has been a while.
You wouldn't believe it, but I eat salad often.
As soon as I arrived at Bukchon,
I saw a salad place.
My face was covered,
but she went, "You are my senior."
- Senior? - She went to my middle school.
- My goodness. - It was so nice to meet a junior...
when I wasn't even in Mok-dong.
I came to say goodbye since I am leaving soon.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Did you go to my middle school? - That's right.
Elementary school too.
- Elementary school too? - That's right.
- Park Bo Gum too. - And Shin Sae Kyeong.
Park Bo Gum? Shin Sae Kyeong?
- They went to my school. - Yes.
- We are a year apart. - That's right.
I guess I could treat Sae Kyeong with ease.
I sound like an old fart.
I was so surprised.
- All right. See you again. - Bye.
- Please come again. - I will.
- Bye. - Shinmok Middle School.
- Let's go. - Youngdo Elementary School.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
- Bye. - Bye.
He knows everyone in Bukchon.
I know everyone on that street.
He is going around the area like a district leader.
- Seriously. - I want to appear young.
It's atmospheric when it rains.
- Hyun Moo! - Hyun Moo!
They are the juniors.
We couldn't prepare it sooner.
No, no.
- Come on. - I should pay.
- It's okay. - It's a present.
- No, no. - A present?
I should pay.
- Hyun Moo makes a lot of money. - No, no.
- It's okay. - I should pay.
It's okay.
- What is this? Is it my favorite? - Cheesecake.
- Cheesecake. - Cheesecake.
It sounds delicious.
I like sandwiches better.
We should have prepared a sandwich.
- Thank you. - Would you take a photo with us?
- A photo? Okay. - Thank you.
All right.
- Hello. - Did she go to our middle school?
Yes.
It's nice to meet you.
I am meeting all my friends from Mok-dong here.
Isn't it fascinating to meet people like that?
I know.
- That doesn't happen at apartments. - No.
It's hard to meet people.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Thank you. - Bye.
I will come again sometime.
- Good luck. - Bye.
Bye. Thank you. I will enjoy it.
Bye.
(Mr. Popular is sad to leave.)
(The popular man takes a stroll around the neighborhood.)
It's in slow motion.
They never used that effect when I was on the show.
- Seriously. - It's raining too.
- My goodness. - Look at that.
What's that? What's that?
There are so many cute stores.
It's like "Kim Yeong Cheol's Walk in the Town".
Seriously.
How nice.
This place is so nice for a stroll...
if the weather is nice.
There are so many fun places.
Hello.
The place was closed when I was here.
It's open now.
We are having an exhibition.
I used to sit here and eat packed lunch.
It's open now.
He talks to people even when he doesn't need to.
I can't help but do that.
(Where is he headed next?)
Are there only a few customers today?
Where is everyone?
What?
- What is it? - "Closed for personal reasons."
- What? - That place.
- She is inside. - It must be good!
That place tastes amazing.
Hello. What?
The sign says, "Closed for personal reasons."
- Hello. - Hello.
I wondered...
why there wasn't a line. You are closed today.
I had a medical checkup today, so the restaurant is closed.
Are you making dumplings right after the medical checkup?
Are those for tomorrow?
Yes.
I have some ingredients left.
Why don't I make some dumplings and steam them for you?
It would be too much work to steam them.
If you give me uncooked dumplings,
I will steam them home.
- I can do that, right? - That's amazing.
Of course.
I wondered what was going on.
I wondered why there wasn't a line.
People always line up outside.
I was so happy...
- when you said those words. - What words?
The restaurant was full.
Ox bone soup with dumplings was so tasty...
that I was eating hurriedly.
From the kitchen, I heard someone go, "DJ Hyun Moo".
I was so surprised. I hadn't heard that in years.
When I asked her about it,
she said that I once read her text on my radio show.
- You said you sent a text. - Yes.
- Right? - Yes.
Since you said that you liked dumplings,
I asked you to visit my restaurant in Bukchon.
You read the text.
I remember saying,
"You should give me the name of the restaurant."
That's right. You said that.
I remember saying that.
- I really hoped you would come. - Did you enter the restaurant...
- by chance? - Yes.
Did you look up the place?
I entered by chance while I was living in Bukchon.
- That's fascinating. - She brought up the story first.
The world is a small place.
(Scratching)
Since Hyun Moo has lived for a long time,
he is connected to many people.
Shouldn't you say that to someone who is in his 70s?
Seriously.
Did you have the radio on...
- in this restaurant? - Yes.
You were at work very early.
- Yes. - That segment started at 7:10 a.m.
I always listened to DJ Hyun Moo...
as I prepared the ingredients.
I haven't heard that nickname in a while.
I always listened to the show.
You must have listened to it every day.
I listened to it from the first episode to the last.
One time, you overslept and came to work late.
- She remembers every episode. - You rode the bicycle to work.
I remember everything.
I had forgotten about that.
There were many fans who loved DJ Hyun Moo...
- and your radio show. - In my career,
it was the only time I had a fandom for two years and a half.
Seriously. One comment read,
"I don't like Jun Hyun Moo, but I like DJ Hyun Moo."
Seriously.
- I was thankful for their love. - Right.
- There is something I can't forget. - What is it?
Your mother said it was...
the only way she could meet you.
(That's right.)
- It was the last day. - That's right. I remember.
I cried with you.
I was reminded of my parents.
(DJ Hyun Moo's last day)
"It's so sad to see you leave. Thank you."
(It was a text from his mom.)
(Emotional)
(It was the only time she could meet her detached son.)
My goodness.
That made me tear up.
My goodness.
(Thinking about his mother made him shed tears.)
(DJ Hyun Moo was a crybaby.)
I remember that.
- You burst out in tears. - I was so surprised...
because tears rolled down my face.
Your mother must have been surprised...
- to see you cry so much. - I still remember that.
I should remember that feeling, but I always forget...
because I am lacking.
All right.
People are connected in the strangest ways, right?
I can't believe I met someone who sent a text.
I gave you an autograph, right?
Yes, you did.
All right.
You didn't hang it up, so I wondered if you threw it away.
Once you give an autograph at a restaurant,
- you can't help but look. - They usually hang it up.
"They have my autograph."
- "Where did they put it?" - Seriously.
You see if they hung it up at a nice place.
I am the type to keep it.
I am thankful for that.
I will support you quietly behind your back.
Thank you.
- I will come again. - She will support you quietly.
- Thank you. - Such fans give you energy.
Gosh, I was lucky.
(It was a nice conversation.)
(The popular man, Hyun Moo's stroll around Bukchon...)
(ended on a heartwarming note thanks to precious connections.)
- I want him to keep living there. - Seriously.
It was a fruitful day.
I am so hungry.
(Something stops Hyun Moo in his track.)
The baby snail is still in here.
Maybe I should raise it.
(He goes straight to the kitchen.)
I am so hungry. I am hungry,
but I don't want to eat soup again.
It's understandable.
I thought he would eat it for three meals.
(He looks for a pot to use.)
Okay.
- Gosh. - He will eat dumplings.
Dumplings.
See how many dumplings I will eat. I've changed.
(How many dumplings will Hyun Moo eat?)
- Five dumplings. - My goodness.
Perfect.
- Will you eat only 5 dumplings? - Will 5 dumplings be enough?
I am making an effort to eat less.
- Really? - I want to eat 20 dumplings.
You want to eat less.
Five dumplings are perfect
- A bit more. - I was like that.
- That's right. - That was a long time ago.
(Microwave)
(He used to cook many dumplings in the microwave.)
You use a steamer instead of a microwave now.
(He steams handmade dumplings in a pot now.)
I am hungry.
(He digested the detox soup already.)
I digested the food already.
What is that?
It's a healthy cookie. I bought it from a store on the street...
from an elderly woman.
(The taste of carbs makes him hum.)
(He doesn't think about detox.)
(Trembling)
I know that feeling.
(Sugar is entering my body.)
- It's so tasty. - You are eating a lot.
It's a healthy cookie.
He stresses that it's a healthy cookie.
When will this be cooked?
(Staring)
I am hungry.
It would have been better to eat a hearty breakfast.
What was the point of detox soup?
I think he will end up cooking ramyeon.
(Humiliated)
(There is something that's heartier than ramyeon,)
(a dessert from juniors.)
- What is that? - It looks legit.
- It looks so tasty. - The taste was insane.
(He takes a small piece.)
Okay. It will be a dessert.
Cheesecake.
(After cookies, he will eat a slice of cheesecake.)
(Confused)
What was the point of detox soup?
I will eat two bowls of detox soup in the morning.
(He will double the amount of detoxing.)
(He is still hungry after eating cookies.)
(Opening)
When will they be ready?
(He can't wait until the dumplings are ready.)
- My goodness. - It took forever.
- You are hungry. - Shouldn't the water boil?
(He lingers by the pot.)
Are they ready?
(He pokes a dumpling to check.)
Aren't they ready?
(He decides to check with his tongue.)
(To be cooked or not to be cooked, that is the question.)
- They are ready. - Are they cooked?
The taste was insane.
It looks delicious.
(Humming)
(Eating detox soup earlier)
(Calm)
(It's so tasty.)
(How is it so tasty?)
You said it soullessly.
(Eating dumplings)
(How will he react?)
(Full of soul)
(We want a taste too.)
It's insane.
That's the honest reaction.
The taste of chives and cabbage is insane.
It's insane.
It's so smooth. It's insane.
I should have had another plateful. It's insane.
I decided to change the way I eat.
I cut down on the carbs.
(Thus started the detox.)
(But his day is full of carbs.)
(The electrifying taste of carbs)
(My goodness.)
- I finished it already. - My goodness.
(Carbs are the best.)
They are the best.
This is insane. Insane.
(He takes the dumplings that drive him insane.)
(I decided to change the way I eat.)
(He feels guilty.)
(I cut down on the carbs.)
(It's his last chance to keep up with the detox.)
(Forget it.)
(Everyone sighs.)
- The taste was insane. - Of course.
That's Hyun Moo I know.
There are big chunks of kimchi.
(Hyun Moo eats with gusto.)
She must have added a lot of pepper.
They look delicious.
I should go and buy them.
I can't believe it's the last meat dumpling.
(He feels sad that it's the last bite.)
(I decided to change the way I eat.)
Didn't it get replayed 20 times?
It's like a saying from your ancestor.
I can usually eat more than ten dumplings.
I am not the type to eat only five dumplings.
I absolutely love dumplings.
So I didn't have my fill. I only ate half of what I can eat.
It's a miracle that I only ate five.
- It's a miracle. - It's a miracle.
That's right.
It's the last bite.
Look at the chives.
(It's a miracle that he only ate five dumplings.)
(Sad)
Gosh.
What should I do? I am done.
I can detoxify in the morning.
He is becoming chubby.
(Chubby stomach)
All right.
(The chubby man opens the fridge.)
It's time to eat cheesecake.
- That's the best. - I wish I had more.
It's so tasty.
Honestly.
What should I do?
You want more, right?
- I just got the taste of it. - Of course he wants more.
I just got the taste of it.
(The chubby man is in pain since he just got the taste of it.)
Seriously.
It's time for dessert.
(It's time for dessert.)
You have a separate stomach for dessert.
(Eating)
Cheesecake tastes amazing.
I need to stop thinking about dumplings.
(The memories of detoxing flit through his mind.)
(Embarrassed)
(He can't win against cheesecake.)
(It's tasty.)
They are good.
(The chubby man becomes happy.)
(It's still raining.)
(He moves with a pen and a notebook.)
It's one of the routines that has changed.
(It's Hyun Moo's cozy spot.)
What is that room for?
I read and write here.
- Do you write? - Do you write?
Yes. I write things.
(Glancing over)
(He takes a look at the calm scenery.)
That place would give you inspiration.
- It does. - That's right.
(After thinking for a while, he begins to write.)
(He writes each letter carefully.)
- Is that a journal? - Is that a journal?
I bet you write well.
I am curious.
(Thinking)
(Crossing out)
(He concentrates once more.)
No.
No, no.
(He doesn't like it.)
You need to start off well.
It's hard if you don't have the first sentence.
You would know since you write lyrics.
You keep writing and erasing.
(What?)
If it were a journal entry, he would keep writing.
I think it's something else.
An autobiography?
It's not like I am a historical figure.
(You went too far.)
(The pain of creation continues.)
That's the pain of creation.
I crossed it out...
because I felt like...
- I was trying to look cool. - I know that feeling.
Pretentious words.
I tried to write what's in my heart,
but people would have found it cringe-worthy.
You were probably aware of the camera.
(Right.)
(Sighing)
Writing isn't easy today.
It's nothing impressive.
When you are in your 40s, you begin to write.
When you speak,
your thoughts come out in an unorganized state.
But writing has an advantage because the process is slow.
So your thoughts get organized as you write.
That's why I like to write.
There is an app where you can write.
(It's a platform where you can post what you wrote.)
Do you write web novels?
I write something like an essay.
("Confused Man, Born 1977, About Life")
He is going through puberty.
(The titles are eye-catching.)
- He is like a web novelist. - "Confused Man, Born 1977".
- What is that? - "Confused Man, Born 1977".
(I tried to share my experience, but that made me an old fart.)
(It's about a confused man who was born in 1977...)
(who doesn't want to be an old fart.)
(I shouldn't fall behind.)
("Passion")
("Passion": Is it me or the others who cooled down?)
"I shed tears sometimes."
(The title is full of sentimentality of the past.)
It isn't like what people wrote in Cyworld.
- That's the Cyworld song. - Seriously.
"Like, heart, and subscription..."
"are numerical reactions."
"They are quite different from the sincere reactions..."
"I received in the past."
(They don't leave any lingering emotions.)
"Isn't Stamp-Collecting the Best Hobby?"
(An autobiographical essay of self-examination)
"All my life..."
"I diligently ran in one direction in a narrow cave."
(All my life, I diligently ran in one direction in a narrow cave.)
He is like Haruki Murakami.
(My goodness.)
I don't post regularly.
I only do it when ideas surface.
(Writer Hyun Moo writes down...)
(all the thoughts he had today.)
I didn't know he had this hobby.
I stayed there for about 40 minutes.
(From a final version...)
(To a new final version)
(To a real final version)
(Focused)
(He completed his writing after a lot of thought.)
I'm not totally satisfied with it,
but let me post it.
"A Present Bukchon Gave Me".
"I never could've seen it."
"I had a subtle connection with people..."
"who went to my elementary school and my middle school,"
"but I've never had a chance to see them or had to meet them."
"But one day,"
- Hyun Moo! - Hyun Moo!
"my precious ties ran to me..."
"and handed me cheesecake..."
"and told me one of them was getting married."
Hello.
"I've met her once over the radio."
"She had met me by my voice..."
"for two years and a half every morning."
"As she was handing me her freshly-made dumplings,"
"she shared memories I didn't even remember with me."
"If I hadn't been there,"
"my precious memories..."
"would've been erased forever."
Hello.
"They gained a new life..."
"by someone who always remembered her connection with me."
You are drinking instead of working.
"I've been wearing a mask..."
"when meeting people."
You are Jun Hyun Moo.
"Now that I meet people without a mask,"
"I can finally breathe."
"Bukchon has the power to take my mask off."
"The air I breathe in for the first time in life..."
"is quite refreshing."
I love it.
It was good writing.
(Shy)
I only used to be excited about living alone before.
Now, I should go beyond that...
and enjoy it to the fullest.
I didn't really enjoy it before...
and only copied what others do.
I lined up for the restaurants other people go to.
I copied other people's hobbies.
I want to be honest with myself in life now.
I'll be a little more mature...
as a Rainbow Club member...
when I see you again,
which is really exciting.
"Post."
"It has been posted."
"A Present Bukchon Gave Me".
(Hyun Moo With the Turning-40 Blues Has Changed)
I like the mood of a rainy day.
(Welcome back.)
We enjoyed the clip.
(Welcome back.)
Even I notice that I have changed.
You got softer.
Really?
I've never thought...
watching your clip could comfort me,
but unbelievably,
it did comfort me and relax me.
That's what life looks like at the end.
I'm sorry.
- At the end? - Let me explain.
He's only a middle-aged man.
I'm not preparing to retire.
- I want to have a relaxing life. - I know.
(Laughing)
You joined us for the 400th episode of Home Alone.
On our YouTube channel,
we're hosting an event to celebrate the 400th episode.
There are also a lot of funny videos,
so please take a look.
- Hyun Moo. - Yes?
- We'll see you every week, right? - Of course.
- Let's get it. Come on. - Good.
- Great. - Hooray!
(The 400th episode special gets more heated.)
(Next week)
(Simon Dominic enjoys his day to the fullest.)
(I will just go with the flow today.)
(He rides a bike, looking cool.)
(Screaming)
(You should've fallen.)
(Hyun Moo keeps wanting to spice up the show.)
(He redeems himself with a supercar.)
(Let's fire.)
(That fiery fart is making me go crazy.)
(He forgot about the world while living in a hanok.)
(Now, he can't hold himself back.)
(It's quite cool.)
(I got it.)
(I got it. I'm getting it.)
(Coughing)
(Overwhelming feelings upset his stomach.)
(I almost died trying to be cool.)
(He redeems himself with a ballad.)
(Please don't go away, my feelings.)
(His unrequited love for being cool makes you cry.)
(I Can Feel Your Feeling)
(What is that?)
("Heo Hoon Becomes MVP and Follows Heo Jae's Footsteps")
("Heo Hoon's Day Has Come in Professional Basketball")
(The shiny MVP winner in 2020)
Hello. I'm...
(A basketball player, Heo Hoon)
(His hangover is worse than anyone's in the morning.)
(A professional player can't beat it either.)
(Grunting)
(He's pouring a hangover cereal into his empty stomach.)
(Let me show you how a professional player dresses up.)
(His fashion show gets weird and is just time-wasting.)
(Do I look cool?)
(Such a fancy shirt)
(Are you here for a fashion show?)
(I'm here to show what a real basketball is.)
(His arm muscles are popping.)
(To be the next Basketball President,)
(he exerts himself today as well.)
