the world where it's okay for men to do housekeeping. we will make that world. - "mr. house husband." / - yeah! ("mr. house husband" - lives of men doing housekeeping) eli. eli.
so you think you can dance episode 11, - eli is back. / - hello. he's here three weeks in a row only for having a wife 11 years older than him. what are you talking about?
i should've married an older wife, too, for that. what? (100 more bad comments) what did your wife and other people say? i got many great comments. they said it's great to see such a lovely family. you are very jealous of his comments. why did you read other people's comments? i'm jealous of seeing hearts on comments. it's not common to see an age gap of 11 years.
do you regret it at all? i don't. do you? (impossible to understand) me? - answer him. / - no, no. it's been too many years for me to regret it. you're always digging your own grave. (one early morning on a rainy day) you went to a traditional market. - you're not in busan anymore. / - no.
oh, seoul. gwangjang market. (best arguing couple, mr. dalmaji & mr. yeomchang) we are going to refurbish the sofa at my place. i don't wish for much. it just needs to be comfortable when i sit or lie down. the cushions are sunken in. (is this the kind of refurbishing you want?) (what a sofa means to mr. yeomchang)
(it's not furniture, but a part of his body) (but) (traces left over the years) it's really been through a lot. (a horrendous thing to see) (worn-down spots found on the sofa) it's horrible. how much did you lie down on it? they filmed it too closely. was it found in the midst of the war in syria?
- have you used it for 30 years? / - no, 8 years. - show me high-quality fabric, please. / - okay. they have everything related to fabric here. there are so many. - i don't know what to choose. / - me neither. how about this for the sofa? it'll make the house look lively. - put this on the sofa? / - yes. from here...
stand right here. (what are you doing?) - what are you doing? / - how about a dress shirt? a see-through shirt. (i prepared this for you) (we're here to refurbish my sofa, jungtae) we'll be so popular if we go to a club wearing this. we will definitely get everyone's attention. (a shoulder dance to strut at clubs in 2017)
(then we recommend the shirt to you, jungtae) we'd definitely get everyone's attention. of course. we don't need to go any further. don't just focus on the fabric for your sofa. learn how to enjoy being in the market. oh gee. ma'am, can we get two cups of coffee, please? that's what's great about being at a market. you can have tea and snacks.
eli, have you been to a market like that? no, i haven't. not once? because you're an idol singer? yes. no, no. what else do you have? i have black coffee and sugar coffee. please add a little bit of sugar in my coffee. please give me original coffee mix coffee. look. just-made, high-quality rice rolls.
how would you say "just-made" in english? ("just-made" in english?) right-now, high-quality roll. (he's funny) right-now, high-quality roll. i have $2. drinking coffee is a must at a market. thank you. (change automatically goes into jungtae's pocket) (yeah! free money!)
go ahead, jungtae. keep the change. let's go in here. (they go into a curtain fabric store) these aren't just for curtains? they can be used to cover sofas, too? yes. is there a certain color you want? i want a simple, solid color. can we look at some samples, please? (mr. dalmaji is indeed thorough)
these are plaid. let me take a look at some fabrics. (is mr. dalmaji losing his vision already?) we must check the color without the lighting. why? that's how we can see the exact color. look at it this way and that way. he sounds like a fabric dealer. if the sofa is too dark,
it will bring down the whole mood of the living room. how about this? i recommend this color. (mr. dalmaji's recommendation 1: bright grey) i think this is good, too. (mr. dalmaji's recommendation 2: simple beige) i need to lie down on it. test it comfortably. relax your body and feel the fabric. your head would feel warm on that fabric.
this one feels good. that's velvet. (mr. yeomchang likes ivory velvet) wow. velvet. isn't this great? (soft velvet feels great against his head) wow, this... i like this one. it's a high-class material. let's go with this. we'll take this, ma'am. do you have this?
that's $12 per meter. could you give us a discount to $11 per meter? okay! (the owner is quite generous) (he successfully negotiates) - how much of a discount did you get? / - $1. $1 discount. good job. it's a $1 discount per meter. 16 meters. $11 per meter. $160?
it's $176, but just give me $170. she gave another $6 discount. $140, $150, $160, $170. - thank you. / - thank you. if you refurbish your sofa for $170, that's cheap. - that's very cheap. / - it's a new sofa for $170. yes, it'd be a new sofa. have a bowl of mixed rice. aren't you hungry?
yes, i am, now that i've bought the fabric. here we go. there are many places to eat. it's the food street. now that we've shopped, you must eat. you should go to the market, eli. it's so much better in the winter. (this is food heaven) (i'm so happy) there's a place i used to go regularly.
let's see if it's still there. - here it is. / - it's still here? - i used to go there regularly. / - you did? when did you go there, jungtae? before i got married. then it's really been a long time. (mr. dalmaji returns to his favorite place) (the place where the memories of his youth are) where? (he nervously yells out to her)
ma'am! ma'am! (the word he yells out longingly) is it someone else? - hello! / - it's been such a long time. you really must be a regular. she recognized you right away. i wasn't sure if you'd still be here, but you are. i saw you on television and got upset that you haven't come since you got married.
gwangjang market was a part of my life. there is my favorite place that i always went to. since i was all alone in seoul before getting married, she always welcomed me when i went. a dish of squid fried rice and a bowl of soup, please. how long has it been since you were here last? it's been a long time. seven years? before i got married, i came a lot. he's gotten much younger.
- what? / - he's gotten younger and cleaner. was he dirty back then? no, he was always in sweatsuits, sandals and a cap. he was always walking around in a cap. when he was single. (it's embarrassing, ma'am) you've returned as a successful man. that looks good. everything tasted so good. it's to die for.
i'm so touched. (how does the soup taste after seven years?) (that's what i'm talking about) the taste hasn't changed one bit. (it's good! / it's good!) it's sweet. it's so good. - it's so good. / - yes. (motherly smile) my mother was ill when i came here often.
he was quite lonely since his mom was ill. so she cooked for you instead of your mom. it was my favorite restaurant. you came when you missed your mom's cooking? (he came from busan to become an actor) (he spent 10 long years to get recognized) (she offered a warm bowl of rice to lonely jungtae) (the best restaurant he's ever been to) thanks for the meal.
stay healthy. let me give you a hug. come again soon. stay healthy during the winter. i will stop by sometime. he looked like he was struggling before, but he seems so happy now. he's always been a joyful person. every time i came, she served me a delicious meal and cared for me. i am so grateful for that.
happy new year and i hope you always stay healthy. (iljoong's home, where the sofa must be refurbished) now you're getting started. filling the cushion with buffer materials. i couldn't have done this alone. wait. wait. wait. let's cut all three of them together. (scissoring without hesitation) hold them up.
(they place it on the sunken cushion) let's sit on it and see. oh, it feels so much better. wow! this is nice. you can just use it like that, can't you? that's a nice color. hold this here. (placing the cloth) grab it.
all we need to do is cover it up? like this. but it's too short here. you have a sewing machine, right? - a sewing machine? / - yes. place it here. who knew i'd end up using a sewing machine? wow. you can use a sewing machine, too? wow. a sewing machine?
there's nothing he can't do. (he handles it naturally) wow. jungtae, you're the best. - have you used that, taeyoung? / - no. eli, do you know what that is? my mom used to use it. we have to pull this together. slowly. i'm excited. - here we go. / - okay.
don't pull too fast. you must match the speed. what speed? - the speed of the sewing machine. / - how fast is it? (let's start the sewing machine) stay still. stay still. make sure it moves along a straight line. (the master's skills are embedded in the fabric) (the attitude of a 30-year housekeeper) who knew we'd see a sewing machine?
that's part of house chores. this is the labor song. ♪ red flowers, yellow flowers, a bed full of flowers ♪ ♪ white butterflies, beautiful butterflies fly around ♪ ♪ warm spring wind may blow and blow ♪ ♪ but the sewing machine continues to work ♪ (the end!) (the velvet fabric is sewn together nicely) wow. i'm amazed.
so we cover the sofa now. so we cover it up this way. you see that over there? - this? / - yes. hand that to me. what is this for? where is this used? (what is this for?) insert it in here. (tuck in fabric using the material to keep it in place) (pressing down)
(use double-sided tape to keep the bottom part fixed) (perfectly set in place so the fabric doesn't move) this doesn't seem like the work of jungtae. it seems a bit amateur. using the sewing machine was good. but this looks like your furniture has been seized. don't say that. place a red sticker and it'd mean the sofa is seized. that was the theme when we refurbished the sofa.
(refurbishing the second sofa, too) let's cover this up, too. that was the theme of a hospital bed. (mr. dalmaji doesn't know what's going on) what is that? this isn't like you, jungtae. it's over? it's not the time to hug, jungtae. (why not? it's not over?)
(it's not over until it's over) you didn't have to use the sewing machine then. - if you're just going to cover it like that. / - yeah. let's do it over. we're almost there. if iljung says they need to do it over... he thinks it's bad, too. (where are we? who am i?) you're doing that again. (we've seen this before)
we're doing the job twice because of you. isn't this fun? (sure... it's a lot of fun...) iljung, why am i doing this? let's think about it when we're done. while we quietly have a cup of tea. - really? / - yes. (finishing up thoroughly) how does it look, jungtae?
it's quite different with velvet fabric. what is that? in a family house? it does look like a new sofa. the new sofa before it's unwrapped. (a worn-down tacky sofa) i miss that sofa. what is this? (has turned into an elegant velvet sofa) it doesn't look different even with the music. (let's change the music to suit the mood...)
it's already popping up. the sofa looked too sunken in, so i added some baking powder. if it pops up more, we can sit on it. don't worry. (don't sigh too hard or the sofa may sink) (what an embarrassing ending) are you using the sofa looking like that? you think i would've left it that way?
what did your wife say? she was shocked when she saw it. honestly, we felt the same way. (this is wrong...) you can tell right away. we thought it'd be easy. but after starting, we realized it really wasn't. but we had no choice. we spent a lot of money on it. what a waste.
what did you do with it? we're thinking of using it as a curtain. we're trying to use it somehow. (good thinking) the sofa is back to the way it was? it's been refurbished back. refurbished again. it was refurbished and it was refurbished back. some women just refurbish the cushions that you can remove from the sofa.
that's a great idea. as for mr. dalmaji, it was more meaningful to meet the woman from eight years ago. they went to the market to show us themselves eating. (how can you say such a thing?) what i realized is that for actors, you have that time when you are not recognized. what about you, seungwoo? i do have a painful memory.
i debuted through the movie "general's son." but my role was gone in the sequel. so i asked to stay on the movie set, so i ended up doing the costume job. that's why your name was on the stylist team. so you were an actor then a stylist? my friends were in front of the camera and i was behind it doing their outfits. that's not easy to watch.
right. that was hard. eli, you didn't struggle much, did you? as a singer, i debuted just after six months. but before that, i went to china to become an actor. but i got scammed. oh no. so i could only afford to eat instant noodles in the morning and eat cheap vegetable crackers
for dinner by dunking them in leftover soup to eat like porridge. i spent three months like that. you struggled a lot. but you made a lot of money as an idol singer, right? after my wife and i went public, i lost many jobs, and we got into debt. we still live in a place paying monthly rent. my wife and i are trying hard to
make money and become successful on our own. we don't really want to get other people's help. eli, you must work hard. for your son and your wife. they are your lucky charms. such a lovely family. iljung, you'll be well off if you just get rid of that sofa. (we can tell whose house it is already)
how cute. (mr. gimpo's place that's full of love) it's moon seyoon's place. (two bodies on the sofa, two mr. gimpos) (is that a hippo?) what is a bear doing there? i am so ugly. (even i think i'm ugly) why isn't he here yet? he's late again. (they're waiting for someone)
is that friend living with you now? he's a fixed guest on our program now. he doesn't have much work. he's here. (he doesn't seem ordinary from the back) what are you doing? (he's trying to get more air time) who are you? (who is it?)
- you have another friend like that? / - yes. wrong apartment. i'm too scared to let you in. what about now? come in. (masked man acts cute despite his looks) he brought something strange. who is it? he's quite popular these days. hwang jeseong. i'm hwang jeseong, who's been married for two years. nice to meet you.
(the blue chip in the entertainment industry) (he's quite popular on a gag show) (hwang jeseong, the youngest of the gimpos) his wife is also a comedian. you three should do a comedy program together. we are doing one together. (please have interest in your colleagues, everyone) we are going to hold a birthday party. (what?)
i didn't throw great birthday parties for my daughter. so while i hold her party, my best friend's son's birthday is coming up, too. so i'm planning a surprise party for him, too. they don't know that yet, right? of course not. they just come when i tell them to. (really?) isn't there a company that does it for you? didn't your mom invite your
friends and throw a party in the past? it's too much work. why do that? let's just go out and buy some food. that's what kids like. you can learn from what we do today. you will have a kid soon, right? you should learn from us. let's try it. let's go shopping.
your friends are so nice. i go on a journey with these friends. (the gimpo musketeers are back from shopping) this is my first time planning a party. (both hands are full of things) you're throwing a party for the whole town? there are four children in total. we should make enough food. the kids are going to be jeseong's slaves.
- what did you buy? / - what's this? it's like a petroleum gas tank. wow. (helium gas) what is this? this is a disco ball. (a disco ball is a must at a party) this is great. move aside. you're going to dance like you're at a club? it's so much fun to have one at home.
i got so excited. (a club with just three men) (but they are excited. how fun!) shouldn't we make many balloons first? helium. it will make the balloons float. - i'm scared. / - to the left. (pbst) (those fragile glass hearts) you scared me.
you don't think that scared me? i was the most scared. (his cheeks shook) (his cheeks are shaking) - wait. what if we inhale this? / - try it. i'll taste it first. try it. (inhaling) of course you have to try that.
you are indeed comedians. they all want to try it. (high expectations) daughter... (a grandmother who inhaled helium gas) what's going on? when do our voices come back? go ahead. he's inhaling a lot.
(looking forward to it) my voice doesn't change. my voice doesn't change. (you're having so much fun...) - what's wrong with my voice? / - it suits you best. it sounds strange. we played with helium for 30 minutes. you kids. (they're motivated thinking that the kids will love it) yeah. (it's already a party just with the balloons)
(with the love from the fathers) (the place looks colorful and beautiful) they're going to love it. (they really work hard decorating) ♪ on the branches, like thread ♪ ♪ cotton candy is made ♪ (kids will love it as much as them, right?) (feels like a birthday party atmosphere) (it may look a bit amateur, but it's made with love)
(the place is ready for a party!) (1 hour and 30 minutes before the kids arrive) (choi sungmin will make seasoned rice cakes) (hwang jeseong will make noodle soup) (moon seyoon will make sweet and sour pork) nice to see you all. i will be cooking with you today. i am chef moon. cooking isn't difficult.
it's simple, but what is it that you must have? ingredients. - sincerity! / - there you go. (in just three weeks, he's become a housekeeping man) here's a tangerine. thank you. thank you. he's different because he's learned for one week. you need love. for whom are we cooking?
kids. what do we need in children's food? love. two more. (darn!) what do you need in noodle soup? anchovies. you must make broth first. get up. let's go make broth.
it's like a cooking class. it's more fun this way. (cooking that started out fun soon becomes...) (an unavoidable, approaching terror) (coming up soon, stay tuned) - we'll make broth with anchovies and kelp. / - okay. okay, chef. - how much water do i need? / - that's enough. put it on top of the stove.
- you know how to turn it on, right? / - of course. come on. turn it up. (he knows how to turn on the stove) we usually need 12-13 anchovies per person so today we will... (two fistfuls of anchovies) we'll add kelp, one-third of the amount of kelp. that's all. this is the broth.
what does the radish do when added in the broth? it gives it a refreshing taste. good. nice. as a reward, you can chop radish. you teach them well on their eye level. yes. he does it on his own. he really is a beginner based on how he cuts. (it's not something mr. yeomchang should be saying) (adding radish to anchovies & kelp broth)
(they skillfully handle meat) you really look like a butcher. (he has this force that no one can mess with) moon seyoon. (this beginner is studying a manual) are you studying? this is more complicated than i thought. all three men are quite serious. (he's checking on broth that isn't boiling yet)
i'm checking the broth. - you didn't put in noodles yet, right? / - not yet. don't put the noodles in there. don't i put the noodles in once this boils? (speechless) sit down. sit down. thinking chair. he must think. i was going to wait until it boiled.
when you go to a wedding ceremony, don't they usually have noodles separately? - oh, noodles... / - yes. okay, okay. then i should make the toppings first. - yes, you should. / - a fried egg. - what? / - a fried egg. - sit down. / - why do you need a fried egg? i need to top it with seaweed.
cut a zucchini first. thinly. crosswise. will he know what crosswise means? what wise? (crosswise) (cut a zucchini crosswise and julienne it) alright. i'll do it. don't tell me anymore. let him be. he can do it on his own. why are you beating pork?
why are you harassing it? it's your buddy. it makes the meat tender and it'll get seasoned better. it's so that the meat isn't tough. should i do the same? slice the meat thinly. that's beef, not pork, so you don't need to hit it. i don't need to do the same thing? don't play with food.
i don't need to peel this, do i? no. (holding back anger) i guess he really has never cooked before. (who knew he'd be worse than mr. yeomchang?) hey! stop! - what are you going to do? / - cut crosswise. show me. what are you going to do? cut similarly. stop! get out!
you shouldn't have cut it like this. (chef moon tries to fix it) he's going to save it now. (focusing hard) oh. okay, okay. i got it. i can do it now. i got it now. (he's focusing on it again...)
(it's not paused) there's no time. what is he doing? is he a sloth? is this "animal world"? that wasn't shot with a high-speed camera, right? not at all. (the background music suits his motion well) (despite that this is filmed in real time)
are you doing a facial? i must slice it like this. (he did julienne the zucchini, but...) - are you mimicking what i did? / - yes, sir. (the fact that it's a zucchini is the same only) - is that what i did? / - yes, sir. he's starting to be afraid of you. (new daughter-in-law / mother-in-law / sister-in-law) cut crosswise.
did you cut with care? yes, i put in lots of care. - and love? / - yes. what i hate the most is a person playing around while cooking. - take a look at this, sir. / - don't fool around. place the zucchini on the plate. plate it on the plate so you don't spill. yes, sir.
(placing chopped zucchinis on the plate) i need to boil the zucchinis, right? stirfry. you need to stirfry the zucchinis. - oh, stirfry? / - yes. (he starts to stirfry zucchinis) - you're just stirfrying it? / - yes. - did you add oil? / - yes. (pinch of salt)
(grab) - you'll scratch the pan. / - he's seen the chefs cook. oh, wooden chopsticks! (use wooden chopsticks to protect the pan!) my wife will yell at me if the pan is scratched. (working hard) what should i start with? should i start with rice cakes? or start with meat?
i should cook beef first, right? (1. cook marinated beef) (2. then add rice cakes) he's better than we thought. (3. add vegetables) not bad. what soy sauce do i put in soup? soup soy sauce. the answer is in the question.
- soup soy sauce. / - where is it? it's too bland. you know very well where things are. i know where everything is. you organized the refrigerator together last time. that's right. look at all the sauce. it's like a restaurant. i'm sure next to the water bottle, you have pickles.
(bingo!) pickles. you're good at housekeeping now. why don't you go live at my place? i feel more comfortable here. - can i put this in? / - what? soy sauce. you need to take out anchovies and kelp first. (he takes out anchovies and kelp)
don't i need to boil broth for a long time for it to thicken? if it has boiled over, it's done. you don't give long explanations anymore. the kids are arriving soon and he's so slow, so i was going crazy. (is the broth ready?) (the sloth is taking his time) we must be done before the kids get home.
i am in such a hurry. (touching) (jeseong doesn't leave the broth at all) what? (something is about to go wrong...) (shocked / aghast) (oh no!) what is it? that's too much. (all the noodles?)
the noodles will probably all stick together. eli said something, too. (he causes an accident with so much care) (oh no) how can you put that all... (what? what?) hey! (surprised) you shouldn't put that much in the pot! i wasn't supposed to?
that's so much, but... oh gee! - this isn't much, is it? / - oh gee! - we can just eat... / - the noodles will clump up. you're mad. it's just a fistful. you should've asked me first! i thought i just had to put in the noodles. (sorry) we'll end up with just the broth. - oh no. / - i'll try to save it.
isn't this how you do it? it says here just boil for 3 minutes and 40 seconds. let's just put the noodles in the broth. (shh! shut that mouth) let's just put them in the broth. - oh no. / - pour them in. they were clumped together. i lost my mind at that moment. i didn't know how it would turn out.
this is a lot. it's crazy over here. it's crazy over here, too. wow, it's so good. awesome! the other friend is quite good. (taking a peek) how sad. he came to help and he's intimidated. - he came to help. / - how sad.
they are such nice friends. finish the noodles. you can finish the noodles, right? sure. with you. (never-ending noodles) i really didn't know. why don't they tell us how many servings? that is a lot of noodles. it's a lot. (10 servings)
that's about 10 servings. he thought one package was a single serving. i thought it was okay to add the whole package. we need at least one normal dish. are the rice cakes okay? look at the rice cakes yourself. it's good? - okay, good. / - that looks good. how to solve the problem.
that's what we need to learn. we can't eat noodle soup today. we can't use this broth. it's as thick as glue. we'll eat the noodles ourselves. we'll make spicy mixed noodles for grownups. - that's good. / - with kimchi. cut up these rice cakes. - you do it. / - okay.
you need to finish at least one dish. i was going to do this. - don't mess it up! / - okay. what do i do with the rice cakes? tell me. don't leave me alone. i'm scared. sit down. sit down. don't come here. (prohibited from entering the kitchen) i need a knife to cut the rice cake.
i'll give it to you. just sit down. (he's tied to the table) that was good... cut the rice cake and put in sticks. i know how that feels. you want to do something but can't. how do i cut it? in a rectangular shape. there are so many ways to cut it in rectangles.
how do i cut this? in a rectangle. in a size that kids can hold. (sad) cut in four. you'll insert sticks into the pieces. (explaining on his eye level) i'll add the sticks then. these, right? yes. go ahead. unlike when he first got here,
he's completely intimidated. (jeseong, who was bright and outgoing) (has become intimidated and sad) (due to mother-in-law seyoon's yelling) (how will the party turn out?) am i supposed to add vinegar in noodle sauce? (whom are you asking?) sour red pepper paste... you don't need red pepper paste in the sauce.
it tastes great just with kimchi. don't make anything weird. (he uses his instinct to make spicy noodles) (he adds seyoon's kimchi) (and mixes) (he inserts a stick into the rice cake) (and melts sweet chocolate...) (causes another accident) (dangerous)
(glare) pour it out! save it. try to save it. you can't save that. it's fine. (chocolate hardens as time passes by) chocolate hardens. water is fatal to chocolate. i was imagining something like fondue. but it's not working.
(mr. gimpo is now preparing the real party food) (he fries pork in oil) will the sweet and sour pork be successfully made? did you add ice? it makes it crispier. the kids will arrive any moment. they're on their way home. (the sizzling harmony that fried meat makes) that looks great.
(skilled hands stirfrying vegetables) oh, the sauce! my mind was just blank. all i could think of was the time. it turned out great. they all look beautiful. - they look great. / - they are beautiful. (will the kids enjoy the food?) (it's time the kids return from preschool)
(noisy) (birthday stars are here) (dads look very excited) (dads' dishes are waiting for the kids) now you really do look like fathers. let's start your birthday party. let's celebrate your birthdays. we'll hold the party. hurry and come. we all made these. look. (begging)
we made these snacks for you guys. they are busy looking at balloons. - they're busy looking up. / - kids love balloons. that's true. (how fun) (kids are only focused on the balloons) i was disappointed. (dad, what's that circle?) (they are only focused on the balloons) how cute. (mental breakdown)
(who am i? where am i?) this isn't going to work. let's have cake. (jeseong leaves the spot) no one wants to eat? let's eat, guys. who wants spicy rice cakes? (no one?) raise your hand. who wants spicy rice cakes? (no response) it was strange. what i imagined was them eating and enjoying the food.
i imagined them saying, "dad, it's so good." but they didn't even glance at the food. not one child ate the spicy rice cakes. and he made it. (surprise) (uncle jeseong shows up with presents) (great reactions) (surprise gifts he prepared without anyone knowing) - you brought presents? / - of course.
(focused on the presents) seeing how the children were happy to get presents made me so excited. he's really nice. yes, it's nice. but that made the kids not want to eat food at all. not at all! what's this? (no interest in food whatsoever) unwrap the presents.
(is he happy? or angry?) (i want to be part of them... i want to join them) say thank you. (the forgotten food) we worked so hard to cook and they are just into the presents. think back to when you were a child. the uncle who brought presents was the best. i wanted shoes that lighted up when i was young. that existed when you were young?
we didn't have anything like that during the war. (really? that was during the war, so...) it was the time when parents made slings for us. remember "ice pops"? we could make a star when we got 10 sticks. - we used to throw ninja stars with them. / - yeah. he knows what i'm talking about. i haven't heard that word for a long time. at least he didn't say "icekeki."
hayul, let's celebrate your birthday, too. let's celebrate hayul's first birthday, too. come over here if you want to celebrate. me, me. i will. (kids are showing interest) we're celebrating. won't the kids love it if you light the candles? of course. you have to light the candles like 10 times. dads have to grab kids' attention that way? (huddled) ♪ happy birthday to you ♪
♪ happy birthday, dear kids ♪ one, two, three. (the party has a happy ending after many missteps) we should've fed the kids noodle soup. you worked very hard, chef moon. he must've been very upset. jeseong sent us a video message. - really? / - yes. (a video message from jeseong) (i'm angry!)
since that day, i have had trauma regarding noodle soup. i don't eat noodles at all. look at his shoulders drooping. i didn't realize it at the time, but once i got home, i got quite angry. i went to help and got scolded. i won't go ever again! i won't go ever again! don't shoot the program at his house anymore.
my house is just five minutes away. please come to my place for the shoot now. bye. i got angrier than what we saw in the clip. i cursed him for about 2 hours. i'm sorry, jeseong. i will cook you noodles next time. i'm sorry. it will be minsu's first birthday in june.
do you have special plans? my wife and i never had a wedding ceremony. - really? / - really? we just registered our marriage. you have an officiator right here. make a reservation with him now. what i was thinking was we can hold a wedding ceremony in the morning and hold minsu's birthday party while eating lunch.
- that's great. / - killing two birds with one stone. that's what many people do. my husband and i were both born in august. we got married in september. so we decided to just have a nice meal on our birthdays and put more meaning into our wedding anniversary. last year, we went on a trip, just the two of us. it had been eight years. it felt like our honeymoon again.
it's nice to take time for just the two of you. we both only have a mother, so my mother and my mother-in-law both went to babysit our children. that's quite rare. were there any traces of them getting in a fight? i would be more worried about them while traveling. (mr. jamwon's house in seocho) (i'm minsu)
- how cute. / - he's so cute. he's such a good boy. (my dad is...) (an idol singer of u-kiss) (that's why he's so busy...) he needs to clean up the place. you are so handsome when you babysit. - what's so handsome about that? / - isn't he handsome? (he isn't home much, but when he is home, he helps mom) (he's a great dad)
let's eat, minsu. (after finishing cleaning) here you go, honey. (you've worked hard. you've earned this) what? that's your meal? i am doubting my eyes. (a piece of bread) (is this why i've done housekeeping?) - why? / - here. let's eat, minsu. he has a mohawk.
(let's look at the menu) (mr. jamwon made minsu's first solid food last time) i'm impressed. let's eat. (he made the food, but failed to feed minsu) (will he succeed in feeding minsu this time?) (will he eat this time?) ah. will he accept it?
(he refuses to eat what daddy feeds him) minsu. open wide. (mr. jamwon continues to try) his mom has to feed him. (minsu... for daddy... please) you're not going to eat? you're not going to eat, minsu? he's grown since last time. he wants to eat on his own. (minsu playing hard to get)
minsu, eat. open wide. (congratulations! mr. jamwon did it!) there you go. i'll feed him. (his confidence is up) go ahead and eat breakfast, honey. - this is all we have? / - yes. (just bread?) what about something to drink? no morning coffee or anything? let's do rock, paper, scissors and loser makes coffee.
no, i'll feed minsu. you feed me. (feeding pyramid) i'm your baby, too. (burning up) (cheesy) (this is wrong) oh, come on! is this okay? (angry) what's wrong with you? (i can't stand it either) (stops him by stuffing a piece of bread in his mouth)
you'll have a second child soon, i'm sure. (listen, minsu) when mom and dad used to date, we used to have rice for breakfast. (not bread) (embarrassed) you didn't know, right? he subtly confesses how he really feels. i've become a machine that earns money. (oh gee)
you're a kissing machine. (they are kissing all the time) he's comforting her after doing that. (ignore) (i won't look) he doesn't want to watch you two kiss. we need to check his diaper. i'll check. (minsu's rebellion against their affection) no, i'll check.
a man needs to check on a man's thing. right? doesn't it look like they're playing house? - three friends? / - being lovey-dovey. let's check your diaper. (he confidently takes off minsu's pants) it got on his pants. - on his pants? / - yes. he must've pooped a lot.
oh my god. doing that feels good in the morning. it really stinks. (my son has healthy bowels) - is it on his shirt, too? / - on my fingers, too. that happens a lot. (where else should i dirty?) he started to flip over so it gets all over the place. it's all over the place. oh no. (he's flipping over) hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
it got on his shirt, too, right? change him into this. i need another diaper. it got on the blanket, too. (it's not my fault / it's because of clumsy dad) (he barely takes off the diaper) put your arms up. (passing minsu off to mom) wait. he got poop on his back, too. (dad... my back!)
if he just pees, i can easily change his diaper but now that he flips over, it takes a lot of work. so it's hard. that's not considered moving a lot yet. don't flip over! (after a brief bath) will saying that stop him from flipping over? the sofa is dangerous, honey. it is.
when he sleeps in his crib, it's so small that he has to bend his legs. he's grown up that fast? - it's small now. / - babies grow up fast. you know the other crib we got from someone? let's use that now. since he flips over, he'll start to crawl soon. right. (when did he grow up so much?) then i will make minsu's room.
make what? just set up his crib. (getting concerned...) he needs lots of space. that way you can crawl around, right? now it's time for you to sleep on your own. he's supposed to sleep on his own. no. he still needs his mommy. do you know independence? (teaching english) you're independent, right?
yes. i've slept on my own since i was a child. then you sleep by yourself. - what? / - sleep on your own. - doesn't that hurt? / - yes. it hurts when your wife says that. married couples must sleep together. we need siblings for minsu. you already have plans. how can you ask a baby who isn't even
one year old yet to sleep on his own? his first birthday hasn't passed yet. as for eli, he wants to raise our son the american way by making minsu independent. but i want to raise him the korean way where mothers sleep with their babies. i think that's wrong. then the baby will rely too much on his mom. he won't be able to be on his own later in life.
you're talking about a six-month-old baby. in america, they start when babies are two months old. in the west, they used to make - babies sleep alone. / - it's not good. but they say it's not good for the babies emotionally. minsu. i'll make you a room. i will make you a room so you can run around. he doesn't seem to like it.
he loves it. (what are you talking about?) you can do it, minsu. kiss. (mr. jamwon is passionate about it alone) why don't you just clean up the room and place his bed inside? okay. what was that kiss for? please edit out those meaningless kisses. (he enters the room with confidence, but...)
(disorganized) that room was originally the baby's room. but with baby's things, things we don't use... it became kind of a storage room. (he doesn't know where to begin) are you really cleaning up the room? (he begins by cleaning big things) - you're trying to clean that up? / - yes. (he roughly folds the clothes hanger)
(and tries to leave the room) (what's that?) - your wife is... / - worried. honey. honey. (he takes it into the master bedroom) wait. just for now. that's not good. honey, if we put more stuff in that room we'll have to sleep standing up. no. it's just for now.
- shall we tell dad to come here? / - i'll put it back. (you'll make our place dusty) (he starts moving things into the living room) you don't seem to have any plans. you're just moving around without thinking. your wife is really nice. she should be yelling at you by now. i'll move things that aren't full of dust. (cough, cough)
look. that's the angriest she's gotten. she normally doesn't get angry. (he's seeing her looking serious for the first time) (minsu... why did you have to cough right now?) we have an air purifier here. that's the same as throwing something at him. (cleaning up a room isn't so easy, mr. jamwon) this is crazy, honey.
(so many things were hiding in the room) you have so many blankets. yes. (my wife must be secretly selling blankets) is that a bedroom? it looks like a storage room. what was the room for originally? it was a baby room, or a guest room. but you started to have too much stuff, right? yes, since we bought so many baby's things. (but the biggest obstacle is still left)
(i must take this out to make minsu his room) you're removing the mattress? yes, for now. you're taking out the guest's bed? where are you going to put it? - just for now. / - keep it standing? i'm doing it. i worried that she might get upset. she is quite adamant about sleeping with minsu
so i was worried as i took out the mattress. but i'm the man of the household. i realized that no matter what my opinion is, i must go with what the dad says. and minsu's bed... you shouldn't place it right by the window. a lot of cold air comes in. why don't we put it by the door? that's what i was thinking.
we connected. then give me a kiss. (they have so many reasons to kiss...) (he is energized by the kiss) when will we connect? (he cleans the room first) (rearranges the room, too) when i was young, all i had was a bed. that's it. (so cool)
so i wanted to place many cute and pretty things in minsu's room. to make a room that suits a baby. (they eat noodles with black bean sauce) - i'll mix it for you. / - okay. it's like a moving day. you worked hard. no, you worked harder. (putting minsu to bed) i'll mix yours. (so full of love while mixing noodles)
it's sad that you don't have sweet and sour pork. you're not tired? not at all. (how romantic couples live) i don't know why cleaning and moving things around are so hard for me. you take care of minsu. (2. encourages his wife) thanks for understanding me. here. (even while they mix the noodles)
(they confirm their love for each other) bon appetit. (let's taste the noodles that my wife mixed for me) oh, that sound. that's the sound. it tastes much better because you mixed it for me. this one tastes better than that one. because you mixed it with love. oh gee.
eli says such nice things to his wife. that's why he's loved. that's lovely from a woman's point of view? women don't ask for much from their husbands. try some. (forever happy) (the last step of showing affection) (he tries to show affection at this moment) oh my. what are you doing? (censored)
oh that's... (upset) when minsu is sick or he needs us so we have to stay with him all night, i'll move the mattress back into that room. so the three of us can sleep together? okay. (the key point is... only when they're needed) the baby needs his own space and we need our own space, too. (burning up)
alright. so that he's never alone. just take a look. (revealing the room) tada. (minsu gets his own room at seven months) minsu has his own room now. you did such a great job. - it looks good. / - i like the curtains. that's the best. wow. good job.
you made a big difference. (before/ after) you worked hard. (his wife likes it, too) you love it, right? (touched) it was my job to do, so i was grateful that he did it for me. he did such a good job decorating the room, so i was even more grateful. how tall is minsu? 70-something cm.
let's see. (flustered) it says he's not even 59cm tall. - so minus 20cm, right? / - honey. you two look alike. (height is important for men) he's such a quiet boy. (i won't mind since it's you) minsu said to do that. minus 20cm. you should've measured it correctly.
too bad. so what score do i get? i would say 90 points? you lost 10 points? if i give you 100 points, you won't do any more chores. no. there are so many things to do. it's like you're shooting a sitcom. she knows how to tame eli. let's lie down. you're so lucky, minsu. you have your own room.
i wish i had my own room too. what is she talking about? what does she mean? she's asking you to earn lots of money. she just blurted it out. he must love his new bed. you love it, right? you worked so hard. i didn't know he'd love it this much.
no. men are supposed to do things like this. what about the master bedroom? what? (what about the master bedroom?) the things that used to be in this room. now the master bedroom is a storage room. tonight... why don't we all sleep here? nice, right? here? (mr. jamwon gives up on cleaning more)
(daddy worked hard today) (so let him rest just for today) look at his dimples. the fact that minsu has his own room means that minsu has an opportunity to have siblings. is that your new year resolution? (he successfully makes his son's room) that was a happy ending, but what did you do with everything from that room?
they're organized in the corners. you don't sleep in that room anymore? we just need to be able to get around. you know how some couples sleep with their babies? i couldn't compromise with that. oh. (taegyu couldn't allow that) so my wife and i sleep together on the bed and my son sleeps on the floor next to us. many families do that.
i did that, too. we used to have our kids sleep on the floor, but it was tough for me to move back and forth. i had to get up, lie down, get up again. - right. / - so i decided to get rid of the bed frame. so we have our mattress next to the children's mattresses so i can roll over to my kids and roll back to sleep. it's so much more convenient.
that's what we did for about a year. mr. songdo, why don't you have another child? i'll be 70 soon. i'll be 70 when my child turns 20. we can't celebrate his graduation and my 70th birthday. my wife and i really planned things out. my wife lectures at school so we had both kids during her break. we had one in february and the other in december.
that's hard to do. my wife did the math. (mr. dalmaji is talented) one day, she bathed and was lying down on the bed. (what's wrong with him?) so, i thought to myself, "it's time." so we did what we had to do. (the time has come) i was quite concerned when my wife was in labor. people kept saying that i'd be crying when the baby is born.
i was so worried that i might not cry. there are men who don't cry? i was worried that i might not. - i didn't cry. / - you didn't? you didn't get emotional? i didn't feel anything. was it a natural birth or c-section? why are you asking me that? (why ask that here?) because my wife had a c-section.
because the baby wasn't facing the right way. we had a c-section, too. due to placenta previa. so i was waiting outside and she went into surgery. about 10 minutes later, they brought out my son but it felt so awkward. i didn't get to see the birth and i was waiting outside. my son who didn't exist before was in front of me, so it felt really awkward at first. it wasn't the problem of crying.
but don't most men cry at that moment? so you cried? - you didn't? / - i did. - of course. / - i cried. my child was born two weeks before the due date. because her water broke. i was getting ready for a shoot in busan and had to cancel it to return to seoul. - on the first day of the shoot? / - yes.
she was in labor for about 13 hours. - she went through an ordeal. / - i couldn't sleep while i was waiting outside. don't doctors usually recommend a c-section then? so i felt so bad watching her in pain so i asked the doctor to go with the c-section. but my wife refused. she wouldn't want it after being in labor for 12 hours. it would've been better to do it before then.
she was drained after 13 hours of labor. but i kept looking at our video camera. i wanted to capture the moment. i was worried that the camera might fall. she felt like i wasn't paying attention to her. of course that's upsetting. i was checking if the battery was charged. why did you worry about the camera so much? i wanted to capture that moment, as a dad.
in the end, i did get it all on camera. the baby's first cry and cutting the umbilical cord. how was your husband? i actually went through a natural birth and c-section for my second child. my husband cried so much after our son was born. but he was smiling when our daughter was born. he was just calm. i guess that's how it is. i didn't cry either. my wife had a c-section, too.
i guess that's the difference. my son was covered in blood, so i felt he was like an alien. i looked at him and thought "what's this?" an alien? you wondered why your son was an alien? he was covered in so much gunk. they said they had to go wash him. i was more happy than emotional then. i was more amazed than anything.
(mr. jeongneung is in hongdae) are you in hongdae? for some reason, your image suits hongdae. (he's dressed well) (and he looks excited) - you look so happy. / - you're smiling. it was something i've been wanting to do. - is that a bakery cafe? / - a bakery? (a bakery full of yummy-looking bread)
bread smells great. freshly-baked bread is just... i had a dream. i've always had a dream of baking bread for my family on weekends. so i came to learn how to bake. - you really had that dream? / - yes. i'd like to learn how to bake in an actual class, too. - i want to learn how to bake bread as well. / - right?
hello. (who is this greeting taegyu?) hello. i'm bong taegyu. (kobayashi susumu / owns a bakery in hongdae) mr. kobayashi susumu. are you married? yes. i've been married for eight years now. - eight years? / - yes. he married a korean woman?
no, a japanese woman. do you have a child? my daughter is eight months old. really? - isn't he handsome? / - yes, he is. (smiling automatically) look at how much hair she has. she has a lot of hair. right.
- she's only eight months old? / - yes. to be honest, my son has a lot of hair too, so when other people see him they think he's older than his actual age. - same for our daughter, too. / - right? she had a lot of hair since she was born. this is the first time in korea... i've never seen a baby who has more hair than my son.
(they sort of resemble each other) what will i bake today? yakisoba bread can be a meal and it is easy to make. that's bread? yes. it's bread with yakisoba inside. (he finally enters the kitchen) let's start with the dough. the exact measurement is important, right? right. making the dough is tough.
really? (welcome to the harsh world of dough) this is sugar. a little bit of salt. water... and powdered milk. - this is powdered milk? / - yes. powdered milk goes in, too? - that's his secret. / - that's the key point. yeast. (tip: adding powdered milk makes the bread soft)
one egg. (mix it thoroughly) (shake shake) (glancing) (their doughs are subtly different) (firm vs wet) why is my dough so sticky but not yours? that's his skill. how strange.
it's because you mixed before you kneaded. you're supposed to start from the outside. (mr. dalmaji is right!)(mr. jeongneung, susumu) (it's not over yet) keep doing it. (it's time to make the dough chewy) (a repetitive work0 do you do housekeeping at home? yes, i do a lot.
i cook and do the dishes every day. do japanese men usually do house chores? japanese men used to focus on their jobs. - patriarchal? / - yes. in the past. but young people now participate. really? they help out with house chores a lot? (their dough is almost ready...) you've been married for a long time. does she treat you differently?
i don't think so. - she still loves you the same? / - yes. she sometimes loves me, sometimes doesn't. (sometimes doesn't?) we fight often. (you're so honest) (will you argue again as you watch this?) my wife and i still love each other. we love each other too. (he lost somehow...)
(while they laugh and chat) okay now. you've worked very hard so far. now it's time to add butter and do it over. that's a lot of butter. (a whole block of butter) lots of butter is needed. you have to knead it again. we add it after the dough is somewhat kneaded? (they are starting to pant)
(for some reason the doughs look different) why do the doughs look different? that takes a special skill. i'm supposed to make it chewy. he must knead it hard to produce gluten. you have to throw it like that. (even picking it up is hard) this actually relieves stress. kim seungwoo!
kim seungwoo! (their teamwork is destroyed) i didn't know that'd be aired. (throwing it down) (you're the reason for my stress!) (he gathers up all his anger) (bam!) (let's blow away all the hatred) that relieves stress. (but it doesn't look so good...)
he doesn't seem happy. why don't i help you? he's frustrated. (chef susumu steps up) (oh my) he's indeed different. (amazed) (his hand movements are like art) knead and roll. knead and roll.
(is that the same dough?) there. there. (dough, the basic step of bread, is complete) that looks pretty. (let the dough rise for 20 minutes) because they put in yeast. (place matured dough on the counter again) we need to divide the dough by 50 grams. i will do it.
(exactly 50 grams) he's so exact. 50g in one try. (you're awesome, chef susumu!) make it round. - like this? / - yes. go like this. like this. to the side. (make it pretty)
(will he get it right this time, too?) he's a master. (unbelievable) (chef susumu divides the dough) (mr. jeongneung makes the dough round) (cute round balls are ready) when we make yakisoba bread, shape it like this. it will look like a hot dog bun.
- that's it? / - yes. can i make it in other shapes? if you bake like this, they become morning buns. oh, morning buns? - how can i make a heart? / - a heart? there you go again. you love the heart shape. since i learned how to bake, i want to make my wife a special one.
i don't know how it will look. it does look like a heart. how did you make it? i first made a triangle. it's the same. you make a triangle. then you put a slit on top and make a heart. - like that? / - yes. so that's how you make a heart. (let the dough rise for another hour) then we let the dough rest for an hour.
the second time. (while the dough rises...) now we'll make yakisoba. we'll add onions and sausages. (very simple) they will be added into yakisoba, so why don't you cut it into this size? you do this stuff at home, right? - do you do it often? / - yes. (of course) (seeing mr. jeongneung with a knife again)
(1. stirfry onion with oil) it's to bring out the fragrance. when the onions are cooked, add sausages. (2. then add sausages) this alone should taste good. yes, it's good, to be honest. (drool) it makes me salivate. i know how that smells. pepper.
(3. add pepper, noodles, water and sauce) add water. you can use store-bought sauce. (mix everything well) (yakisoba, which tastes good on its own, is ready) you can just eat that. (i want... some) i'll do it. (chef susumu finishes it)
why don't you taste it? (slurp) (mm!) - it's good. / - is it good? (after an hour / are the buns ready?) here are the buns that have matured. they rose more. (before fermenting / after fermenting) now we'll bake these for 10 minutes. (after enduring the heat for 10 minutes)
(bread comes out looking brown) (the great smell of bread permeates the studio) the heart bun is so cute. (his jaw drops) i made these? - yes. / - they're beautiful. i made these? really? (of course) oh, a heart! (so happy)
will it look like a heart? yes. it's a complete heart. that's so cute. - that's shaped like a heart. / - yeah. - right? / - it looks good after it's risen. that was the best heart i've made so far. it was quite chubby. it portrayed my heart exactly. our love.
don't you think food needs this kind of stuff? - yes. / - for our wives? sure. he's such a nice man. we're saying what's right. it's not easy to go along with everything. he knows how to be on television. i will slice open the bun. in the middle. (add butter, lettuce and mayonnaise)
butter. lettuce. mayonnaise. then top with yakisoba. it can't taste bad. i know how that tastes. (this is yakisoba bread) - it was really good. / - seriously. (taegyu attempts to make one, too)
(carefully) this isn't for sale, - so i can make it however i want, right? / - yes. (adds two leaves of lettuce) (lots of mayonnaise) baking isn't as tough as i thought. as long as you learn the basics of baking, you can add anything you want. (mr. jeongneung's yakisoba bread is ready)
(perfect) - may i try it? / - sure. it was really good. (how does it taste?) if you eat it as soon as it's baked, how can it taste bad? that's when the bread tastes the best. my wife loves this bread. she'll love it if i make some for her.
(but let me eat some first!) the bread they made is like art. (he gulps down the entire bun) it's so good. (i won't let even a crumb go to waste) i want to bake something, too. (so jealous) why don't you bake bread next time, too? i asked the chef to teach me how to cook a japanese meal at his place next time.
unrelated to the shoot. take me, too. - let's all go. / - i want to learn, too. - with the heart bun? / - yes, let's try a heart. (how will it turn out?) it looks good. (spreads butter) it's for my wife. i took great care to make it pretty.
i added lots of love. that's the highlight. did you give it to your wife? how nice. (please accept my love) baking is great. - really? you enjoyed it? / - yes. i gave that to my wife. (we cheer on your dream to bake for your family)
after watching your clip, you lost for two reasons. why? (i lost for two reasons?) first, you lost your top place to eli. (loss / win) no matter how many hearts you make, it can't beat a romantic like eli. you're growing up too fast. (keeping him in check)
you should start from the bottom. i don't know if i should i say this, but the chef is more handsome than you. i admit. i'm not handsome. i win through being charming. another loss. you've lost completely. (crushing defeat achieved) the education method is different in the west and east. mr. songdo, i heard you teach with the jewish method?
what does that mean? (how peculiar) my wife controls everything at home. we involve our children in our conversations. we don't talk on their level, but we ask their opinions on different matters so they always take part in discussions. so they're used to discussing things. my wife always asks the kids for their opinions. that's great. (nodding)
when we eat a meal, we don't just talk about easy topics. we'll talk about politics, society, and so on and naturally get the kids to get involved. you ask them questions and get them involved. we always ask our kids what they want on weekends. "what do you want to eat?" they always say noodles, pizza or fried pork cutlet. then what my wife says is,
"no! that's not healthy. let's go eat something else." so i think, "then why did you ask?" you already chose the answer, why ask? at least she explains why. explaining why is important. what about you, taeyoung? i just let them be. let them do whatever they want? i don't force them to study.
i let them eat whatever they want for one day out of the week. whether that is instant noodles or delivery food. you don't argue with your husband on education? we argued about teaching rookhee the alphabet. i taught him the alphabet when he was four. it took me 40 minutes to teach him two characters. so i decided to teach him when he turned five. he turned five.
it took him less time to learn. 20 minutes. so i thought, "i'll teach him when he's six." so he learned korean when he was almost seven. but he learned so quickly. so i thought, "why did i force him to learn it when he was four and five?" they will eventually learn the language anyway. that's what i should've done from the start. so since then, i just let them be.
why did you argue with sangwoo then? nowadays. rookhee's name is really hard to write. - you're right. / - every character is hard. so one time he wrote "kwon" wrong. he wrote "kowon." kowon rookhee. he made up a word. my husband was worried that rookhee wasn't smart.
i told him that it was hard and that it's okay to make mistakes and we had an argument. he said, "you teach him korean then." that's why it was concluded. so on sundays, we study korean together. don't laugh. look. rookhee got a perfect score this time. we have nothing to say on dictation.
