Double LSG's exciting trip Flashback to last week's episode, and we refresh our memory on what has happened so far. [Last week] [The family of 4 got to go on a trip] [6-4=2] [the dropouts] [Not a single cent on them, Seung Gi and Su Guen] [Radio] [Television] [On familiar territory / they earn their train fees in a heartbreaking manner] ---> LOL!! [Will the two guys / arrive at the base camp] [Safely in one piece to meet the others?] Staff: Here's your pay. LSG: Thank you! Thank you!
[The bus has already left] [Making use of the trains, the struggling team] LSG: Hello. Staff: Hello. Where are you headed to? LSG: I.. Namwon! [To get to Namwon] [they should take the 6:18pm Saemaeul train] LSG: Yes. Thanks! LSGuen: Ok! (sings) Let's go on a vacation! [Finally obtaining the train tickets after much difficulty] LSGuen: How long will we take to get to Namwon? An hour and 20 minutes? We should call to ask.. [Calling the Namwon bus terminal] Phone call gets through and we hear a lady's voice. LSG: Yes, hello! Um, Namwon... Huh? [Its the ARS (Automatic response system?) greeting] [He's really polite] OMG, LOL!! I can't believe he can't tell the difference between a recording and a real voice. So adorably dorky! [This time, a phone call to the staff at Namwon] LSG: Hi, I'm sorry, if we get down at Namwon and go to Changsoo, how much time will it take? 40 minutes? What time does the cross-country bus arrive? [From Namwon to Changsoo / There's a cross-country bus available] LSG: You mean to say there's no bus there? [THERE'S NO BUS?] [again their way looks desolate] LSGuen: Oh really.. I'm going crazy.. Hey there's no transport service there and the bus will take 50 minutes.. [The train will reach Namwon at 10] [And the bus will take 50 minutes to arrive at Namwon] LSG: The bus will take 50 minutes.. LSGuen: Ah.. this is really.. [They can't walk there] LSGuen: They're not coming for us? The other guys.. [They try calling HoDong] LSGuen: Let's try calling HoDong Hyung.. [But] LSGuen: He's not picking up! [At this time, Ho Dong and party] [Have TOTALLY forgotten about the two people] [They are full of content in their utter bliss playing with water] EJW: I'm an OTTER~ [there's no anticipation (for the two left behind) in this party of people]
[The train headed towards Namwon arrives] LSGuen: All right, let's go! As we set off, please look at us once! [They have no choice but to set off] [They get over their sense of alienation and go off with spirit] LSG: We'll get there and look for the water, we'll see the water. (Not too sure if that's what he's saying) Fighting! Aw, then the two guys hug. Their brotherly love still makes me grin wide. So sweet! [Time now is PM 06:18) [They're going to Namwon now!]
Enter cute polaroid of Seung Gi. [Seoul] [6:18pm, setting off to Yeongduengpo] [Suwon] [Our legs hurt T.T] [In the midst of reading..] [Talking to his wife] [Dooly Seung Gi] [Zzz..] [We reach Namwon at 9:52pm] [60km to Changsu)
[Meanwhile] [Family of four are having a barbeque party] KHD: Wow this is great! Yah... [This is locally bred pork] [The vegetables that are eaten together with the meat / are all here] MCM: Its a snail, a snail. (picks it up) Sorry for waking you up~ (LOL!!)
Back at the station.. [Barely made it to Namwon, Suguen's party] LSGuen: What do we do now? LSG: We'll go eat when we get hungry.. LSGuen: No, our members, they are not people like this. (Are you sure? they're having a blast without you guys, hahaha!) [He still doesn't believe the situation they are in, Su Guen] LSG: Yea, they are good friends.. LSGuen: I believe in them, when we reach, they will all be there welcoming us like this "YO, FELLA!!!~" [The others will all come to recieve and welcome them ...?] [They've eaten delicious food the whole day] [Their thoughts haven't strayed away once from having fun] [Indeed they are heartless?]
[Beside the station] LSGuen: Hodong hyung! Mong ah! KimC hyung! [There's nothing at all!] LSGuen: Is that them there? The car, the car? The white one! [But] LSG: Ah hyung, wake up, why are you always like that? (LOL, looks like the boy's faith in his brothers isnt too strong after all) LSGuen: Isn't that Yong Jin with Hoon Suk (MCM's manager)? Manager... LSG: Ah, really? LSGuen: Yea. Hey, it really is them! And the two of them start sprinting off. I can imagine how they felt. No money, no food, dark at night, not sure where they will end up next. Poor boys, no wonder they were so enthusiastic. LSGuen: Ah, it isn't them.. sorry! I thought you were our manager, so sorry! LSG: This is really hopeless, there aren't even taxis here. [They call Mong] LSGuen: We're just here.. just come for us.. just here... (keeps muttering) [Suddenly asking Mong who doesn't even know where Namwon station is] LSG: Where are they? The car? [They should already have reached by now] LSGuen: We're just here, just here at.. LSG: Oh oh oh oh oh! They're here, they're here! LSGuen: They're here? LSG: Do you see us? Can you see (us)? Can you see (us)? Here, beside.. [They are really here!] [Actually they already set off beforehand (to get the guys)]
MCM: Where are you! LSG: Oh you are here, you are here! Sound your horn, sound the horn! The horn! MCM: The horn? [presses on the horn] [The headlights shine] SuGuen starts crying, not sure for real or not, but its really funny! LSG: That isn't them? It isn't? They look around in helplessness. Then their ray of hope appears! LSG/LSguen: They're THERE! And the two boys start sprinting off. MCM: They're there, they're there! SEUNG GI YAHHHHH~ EJW: SEUNG GI YAHHHHH~ [The four people meet again] [They are out of their minds with delight] I liked this scene a lot. So sweet, funny, cute and touching EJW: DADDY~ DADDY~ SEUNG GI YAH~ (hugs Seung gi, LOL!!) DADDY! (then goes over to Suguen daddy) [They are happy meeting each other after a long day] LSGuen: Now daddy is not gonna let go of the steering wheel again! I'm going to tie myself to it! I'm not letting go even if I die! EJW asks them what they want to eat, and that's the end of this little lost in Namwon episode. On the car LSG: Wow hyung you've really been wishing to drive the car for the whole day huh? LSGuen: Hahaha.. LSG: I think you nearly went off to drive the train (we were on) because you wanted to drive so badly... HAHAHAHA!~ Nice joke [And with this the drama for the two left behind] [Ends] [Not releasing his grip on the steering wheel, SuGuen] [The hyungs that they have missed seeing... / Now on their way to meeting them...]
[Real] [Wild] [Road variety] [And so the 6 are back in a group again...] [Time to take a rest!] MCM: Look at SuGuen hyung! [The bright light illuminates him / And he makes his grand appearance] [The star of a low rent concert] [Camera stand] [All the staff make up the audience!] [In the midst of playing in the concert!] KimC: Let's have one person (sing)! LSG: Lee Su Guen! [Su Guen's solo!] [The hand controlled vibration!]
[The next repertoire?] [The classic style of the days in the past] [Shim Shin's '오직 하나뿐인 그대' (You Are The Only One)] [But...] [The key is too high] [His neck is almost breaking in this circumstance] LSGuen [Come help me...] [Again leaving it to Jiwon] And Jiwon starts screeching, hahahaha! [Even thought its just a low down concert] [Can't just turn this song into a joke!] [And thus secretly] [He changes to singing MC Mong's Circus!] [But...] Enter MCM, utterly expressionless. LOL! LSGuen: (singing) When the cold wind is blowing... YES YOU! [Joining the two songs together as if they were one!] LSG gets up excitedly to join in. [Is this plagiarism?] ----> HAHAHAHA!~ LOVE the editors, I really do! MCM starts looking really amused by their enthusiastic impromptu of his song. [Its just the same melody!] KHD [Its exactly the same...] Jiwon then picks up the fan and treats it as a mike!! [They do the rap again] KHD: Yah, Shim Shin dooly, Shim Shin dooly! [Shim Shin Dooly!] [We must have the Dooly in the concert no matter what...] KimC: Isn't it copying? MCM: Ahh, the chords are the same, that's why.. [Its no more than the chords being similar!]
[Its now time to sleep] [Something to announce before sleep!] PD: The time you have to wake up tomorrow is 7:50am. Tomorrow morning... the first thing on our itinerary is that we will hold a harmonious family health marathon (So sorry, there's just no english equivalent for this. It just means they are doing a marathon for the sake of their health, and its also dedicated to them as a big family) Yes, tomorrow morning we will have a health marathon. KHD: ... MCM: ... (LOL! Love the identical expressions!) [Tomorrow] [1 Night 2 Days will be having a marathon meet!] [Run. Tumble. And running again ...] [The greatest blockbuster in BokBulBok history] HAHAHA!!! [The race enough to kill one (prematurely) and give a stomachache] [Coming Soon] Woah, I was soooo anticipating their marathon when I saw this little clip. I love how much fun they have with the simplest things on the show. All the games and events they have are actually all really simple, but somehow they always put their hearts into it to have a great time. Love the whole concept. PD: Tomorrow morning at the lake, on a first come first served basis, we will prepare two sets of clothes for two early risers. The two earliest risers who manage to go get the clothes and put them on will get immunity (and be the MCs for the marathon), meaning you won't have to run. The other four members will have no choice but to run in the marathon. MCM: Then where can the clothes be found. After we wake up, where can we find the clothes? [Where is the ... then?] PD: The clothes for the marathon MCs.. [Here...] [At the valley, right in the middle on the rock!] [Even for the first person to wake up / Its going to be a difficult task getting to them...]
[After the 4 family mamber simulation] [KimC and Seung Gi sleep in their outdoor bed] [The remaining 4 people sleep indoors] [And so the day grows dark...]
[Dawn breaks] [Its drizzling in the morning...] [It's still night here!] [Their sleeping pose...!] [Morning mission - The first to wake up and get to the other side of the lake to first put on the clothes prepared will get immunity for the marathon] [If they don't want to run in the marathon they will have to hurry...] [The two in the outdoor tent bed] [Indeed still in dreamland!] [Sleeping in oblivion to the world...] [But now...] [Beside the sleeping Seung Gi's leg...] [Flippers and swimming goggles!] [He's really a cautious one...!]
[Time now is 7:50am] [The wake up song starts!] As usual, our Seung Gi gets up first, with a great big start. Hahaha, I just love their morning expressions, so helpless and out of it [A noisy waking up] LSG [We should run and get to the lake quickly..] [The heart is in a hurry...] [DAZED~]
[Meanwhile in the room] [What's happening, Mong is getting up first?!] [He has completely no intention of waking...]
[Even so, the two people who have woken up] LSG [Not going to the lake...?] KimC [Going of course...] [There are two sets of clothes...] [Anyway it looks like none of the four have any intention of getting up..] [The two people who don't have any rivals at the moment] [Tidy up everything that they have to in a relaxed manner] [Going out of the tent...]
[At this time...] [SuGuen wakes!] LSGuen [Yesterday I suffered because I was left behind...] [I might die if I run in the marathon, I don't know...] [He heads out!] [Coming down the stairs relaxedly, Seung Gi] [On the other side, SuGuen] [Seung Gi who is still unaware...] [Sprints with all his strength!] [Seung Gi follows suit and the foot race starts!] [His soul was still not in place yet...] [And the race suddenly starts!] [KimC joins in the race and starts sprinting too!] [Their target is the place beside the valley]
[Seung Gi reaches first] [Holding onto the flippers, Seung Gi and...] [Running with nothing on him, Su Guen] actually, the captions here say he's going in nude.. but he isn't, so I'll just take it to mean he has nothing on him.. [They have confirmed their target at the the river and...] [Going in first with big strides, SuGuen!] [But...] [Wait a minute... / How do I go about from here...?] [Meanwhile KimC who has also reached after running some distance] KimC [Humans should make good use of the equipment they have...] [He picks up a tube!] ---> why do they call the float a tube? [Going in the water with nothing on him, SuGuen and...] [Going in the water with the tube, KimC and...] [In the process of trying to put on his flippers, Seung Gi!] [Flippers] [Tube] [Nothing on body] [Who will emerge victorious...?] [The first 2 people will get immunity for the marathon...] [KimC takes the plunge and goes in!] [SuGuen who has nothing on him is at the side...] [Calmly and slowly going past him, KimC!] [This is the strength of his equipment!] [Seung Gi picks up a tube too and heads off for the plunge] [KimC touches down at the island!] LSGuen: KimC hyung... Is it deep there? KimC [Its deep!!] [In actual fact it really shallow...] [At this moment, Seung Gi] [Finally finishes putting on his flippers...] HAHAHA!!! I was just sputtering away laughing when I saw this. SEUNG GI YAHHHHH!!! Why are you so funny?! The water is too shallow for you to do this! I find it really amusing that he's so stuck to his flippers. Its like he's been waiting and waiting and waiting for this moment to finally use his flippers, but guess what? The flippers don't exactly serve their purpose Its amazing how I didn't choke laughing at this scene. Its SOOO classic 허당 승기! [He's using the flippers in water that is ankle deep!] [Ultimately he gives up] [He gets up on his feet to walk...] [But its difficult for him to walk because of the flippers!] KimC: LOOK! IT'S AWFULLLY DEEP! (HAHAHA, yea right kimc! I sooo believe you!] [SuGuen too finally decides to go get the tube...] And we see LSG taking baby steps because of his hilarious flippers. HAHAHA!! [A full body swimsuit?!] [And now KimC...] [Puts on the clothes meant for the MCs and keeps it in his possession!] [SuGuen goes forward] [To go get the tube...] [And at this time Seung Gi] [Sets off first!] [SuGuen is one feet late...] [Second to reach the island, Seung Gi] [And now KimC...] [Takes the clothes with him and flees the city!] HAHAHA! meanwhile our boy reaches the 'island'. LSG: What's this! Where's the clothes! [KimC's sudden move...] [becomes Seung Gi's calamity...] [but is a reversal and chance for SuGuen!] [he chases after them and reaches the city...] [and gets swept away by the water] [he starts his struggle with the tube...!] LSGuen: YAH!! Its shallow here, THIS (is shallow)! [meanwhile at this time... inside the room...]
[Still in the middle of sleeping, as always!] [Without any mishaps along the way, these three people...] [Will have to run in the marathon no matter what!] [Meanwhile back at the lake...] [In no time is being chased and caught up with, KimC] [In the situation where he doesn't know who to give (the clothes) to...] KimC: Yah! Yah! What's this? What do I do now? Ah, I really don't know, ah... (and he flings out the clothes into the lake] LSGuen: AHHHH! [He throws the clothes into the lake!] [They run off to chase after the clothes again] [SuGuen is reaching real close...] [But here comes Seung Gi with his strength from his powerful flippers!] [Seung Gi gets it first but...] [SuGuen intercepts!] KimC: Wear it quick! Wear it! [We come to the end and the conclusion...] [SuGuen is the one who gets the clothes!]
[Meanwhile... / they are still in dreamland and know nothing of what is brewing for them] [the three people who are still in deep sleep] [And a while later...] [Heaven ends and hell starts] [Its a test of their endurance] [The race from hell...] [1D2N's Bok Bul Bok Marathon meet] [They run...] [They walk...] [And there's one who falls...] [I'm the dalrin!] ---> no idea what 달린 means. [Trying for first place] [The man's objective!] [Bok Bul Bok's kannari (fish sauce) hell and...] [Watermelon Bok Bul Bok...] [Which athlete will take the first place?] [Heavy breathing and] [Sweat stains] [Their race] [Is starting now!]
[20 minutes before the start] [Newscaster Lee Su Guen!] LSGuen: To all the viewers out there, hello. My job now is to meet with the Bok Bul Bok athletes. [Preparing to interview the athletes] LSGuen: Now one of the athletes is by my side. First off, let's meet the athletes from Jamaica. Ah! Soom Cha! (Ah! is just an exclaimation, while Soom cha means out of breath or can't breath properly, hahaha!! So i'll just use out of breath to refer to Jiwon's new nickname.) [Jamaica's Out Of Breath athlete...?] LSGuen: How are you feeling today? Out of Breath: !@#$%^~... LSGuen: He's not in the right mind! [In the process of writing his name on the back] ---> the font is cute. i mean the one on the shirt. haha. LSGuen: Well, as you see now, the marathon... EJW: What name ... are you writing? LSGuen: We've written your name. [Your name... OUT OF BREATH!] [Going on with the interview with the next athlete] LSGuen: Let's go over to meet another athlete. KHD: AH THE PANTS ARE TOO SMALL~! [The athlete who screams that his pants are too small...] ['PANTS ARE TOO SMALL' athlete!] EJW: He's an athlete from Ghana. Ghana athlete... pants are too small! [From Ghana, PANTS ARE TOO SMALL athlete] LSG: Pants Are Too Small's actual name is No Size! (HAHAHAHA!~ Guy is so funny Note here, Seung Gi uses the korean equivalent of no size, and when KHD talks to LSGuen about his new name 5 seconds later, he actually DOES'T use the korean words and uses the english words no size. Look's like daddy's been practising the english on the sly!~) [Real name, NO SIZE] [Africa Ghana's athlete's name is unique...] LSGuen: Here we have our athlete Pants Are Too Small... KHD: Ah, my real name is NO SIZE! LSGuen: Then today you are going after the game ends? Ok, here LSGuen actually says 그럼 오늘 경기 끝나고 가나? which i translated as above. I'm not really sure if (the translation) is right. But if it is, then I think LSGuen is punning on the 가나 (read as kana) part, because they were referring to KHD as an athlete from Ghana, and the word sounds like Ghana but in fact means that LSGuen is asking him if he's returning. I'm really not sure about this. I'm still not at the stage where I can appreciate fully all the literary techniques and puns used in their conversations, sorry! [Word play, gag!] ---> which I think means pun?
KHD: 1N!~2D!~ [Finally going to set off, all the athletes] KHD: Here. This marathon is not just a marathon. [Today's marathon's distinctive feature] KHD: In the middle, we will be introducing the Bok Bul Bok system to our viewers too. [Introducing [b]Bok Bul Bok[/b] system!] Sang Guen [Be careful...] KHD: We will have to complete tasks like drinking water on the way. There will be water and other stuff, in accordance to the Bok Bul Bok system... [They will have to drink water during the marathon...] [Its not going to be just only water!] [Half (the bottles) are water and half are Kanari...] [And the prize for today's first athlete]
The title on the big card reads [One time immunity from sleeping outdoors] KHD: Its immunity against sleeping outdoors for once. [Hodong's introduction ends here...] KHD: Finally introducing you to our newscasters for today! Enter LSGuen and KimC with their jackets and silly drawn on ties. Oh and they call newscasters caster for some odd reason. LSGuen: Greetings to the viewers who love us. We are bringing you live news from the Bok Bul Bok marathon. (News)caster LSGuen. KimC: I'm (news)caster KimC. [They will be giving the special commentaries today] LSGuen: We will be bringing you the special commentaries today, our yibong (dunno what this is. 이봉) KimC teacher. [yibong KimC teacher] [Before today's game...] KimC: Ah, I'm anticipating today's marathon, and because its exceedingly hot today, I think there's surely be some deaths (casualties). HAHAHAHA!!! LSG keeps giggling LSGuen: Sounds good, Bok Bul Bok marathon. Now, lets have an introduction. [Athlete's introduction] LSGuen: Number one! From Ghana, PANTS ARE TOO SMALL! [Participant number 1 PANTS ARE TOO SMALL] LSGuen: Now we have the second athlete, from Jamaica. AH, OUT OF BREATH! [Participant number 2 AH, OUT OF BREATH] LSGuen: And of course, we have our third participant, the body is in pain, AH, PAINFUL. [Participant number 3 AH, PAINFUL] LSGuen: And finally, our 4th athlete, Boy who left the water [Now to get down to starting the race] LSGuen: Ok, so now we shall start the race. The wonderful staff has prepared a car for us and we will go towards it and meet (the viewers) in a while. We'll take a break for a short while. Let's get to the scene! [...?] [They run quickly] [And take an open car (?)] [And now all the preparations end...]
[They will set off at the sound of the gunshot!] [Waiting for the signal to start.] [The two people engage in small talk in the meantime while waiting...] KHD: Hey stop running. LSG: Ah, we have to get ready and run fast and get back! KHD: LSG: Ah, I don't care. [BANG!] [He fires without any warning / The new PD] [Anyway, they just set off] [This is a marathon...] [Sprinting at full speed!] [At the start, running unexpectedly...] [The first runner to turn out, OUT OF BREATH Jiwon!] LSGuen: Ah, now our athlete Eun Ji Won is coming out first.. KimC: Ahhh.. he looks like he's overpacing himself at the start.. [It seems he's overpacing himself...] LSGuen: Yes, my sentiments exactly, and he's in first place at the start (of the race) now.. Its 10 seconds into the race and he's running at a ridiculous pace isn't he! [Their current rankings] [The last athlete HoDong the PANTS ARE TOO SMALL] [And in first place...] [Jamaica's Jiwon OUT OF BREATH!] [Ah... Out of breath...] [?]
LSGuen: Our Jamaica, out of breath athlete. Out of breath seems to have a good start.. KimC: Ah out of breath athlete, he's fallen! LSG is so cute when he goes over to pat EJW on the head, without stopping LSGuen: Ah, his pace when setting off (is too fast).. KimC: But look, no one is bothering to help him up!
[After setting off for only 30 seconds...] [He throws himself on the road, Jiwon OUT OF BREATH] [They just leave him behind and go...]
LSGuen: In first place now we have our Boy who left the water...
[In first place owing to this (Jiwon's dropping out), Seung Gi yBoy who left the water] [However looking at their poses...] KimC: But looking at them running now, our pants are too small athlete seems to be in bad form..
[His form has stablized, Pants Are Too Small] [And now...] [... athlete HoDong Pants are Too Small] [His heart getting as strong as when he eats] [Becomes the best in first place in a flash!] [On the other side, athlete Mong] LSGuen: His expression is like he has run 20km! LSG: Its really hot! Really hot! [Because its summer, the heat seems to be drilling into them...] [1st place Pants are too small] [2nd place Boy who left the water [3rd place MCM... and...] [Where's Out of Breath?] [Spread out on the floor, JiWon Out of Breath] [He starts running again!] [But] [Not for long and he starts walking....!]
EJW: Woah!~ Its REALLY TIRING! [Like his name...] [Ah... Out of breath...] LOL!!! [Meanwhile the leading group] [Their first Bok Bul Bok course will start a while later] LSGuen: All right, in a while later our first athlete will start the Bok Bul Bok course.. KimC: Ah. our Bok Bul Bok.. Kang Ho Dong will kick start the Bok Bul Bok (course)! [Its half water and half Kanari...] LSGuen: Ah, he's reached, look! [There's a 5:5 probability!] KimC: Our pants are too small athlete! LSGuen: What will he get, water or kanari? [What is the bottle filled with...] [The conclusion?] [!!!!!] [He gets kanari!] LSGuen+KimC: AHHHHH!!!~~ KANARI!! [And now...] [Running fast behind him is Seung Gi Boy who left the water!] [The conclusion?] [Also Kanari!] [He got the second consecutive Kanari!]
[Meanwhile, Mong] KimC: Hey, what are you doing now? You can't change the bottle! LSGuen: You can't change the bottle!!! [He changes his mind and picks another one...] LSGuen: You can't just change the bottle, let's see if its Kanari. LSGuen+KimC: AHHH!! ITS KANARI!!! (look at how happy they are to see kanari. these two are really too funny for words!) [3rd consecutive kanari!] KimC: Ah, HAHAHAHA!! He got the kanari! [The shock of the kanari...] ---> haha, MCM seems scarred for life by kanari, doesnt he? [They all can't free themselves from this...] [Continuing on his way first, Seung Gi Boy who left the water] [He grabs the sponge after drinking the water] [He's trying to cool himself in this hot weather] [Finally HoDong Pants are too small athlete] [He grabs the sponge but] [He gets the ink sponge!] [He hits it on the nail twice for the kanari and ink sponge!] LSGuen: Ah, pants are too big.. first the kanari then the ink sponge, ah... KimC: Look now, Eun Ji Won! Its Eun Ji Won's turn, what will happen next? [Meanwhile, it has started for the Out of breath athlete...] [oh time~ and tide~] [He slowly goes towards starting his Bok Bul Bok spot] [The conclusion this time?] LSGuen: AHHH!! OVER THERE, our athlete Eun Ji Won has gotten the fourth KANARI! [Following them like a ghost, they all get only the kanari...!]
[And now Seung Gi Boy who left the water reaches the turning point] LSGuen: Now its his turn for the watermelons, watermelons! Let's see what our Boy who left the water will get.. [The cooling and full watermelons that have been divided into half] [And the bogus empty watermelons that have been divided into half] [Conclusion..?] KimC: And when he turns it? [The full watermelon!] LSGuen: AHHH!!! Boy who left the water has gotten the watermelon! And he's eating it now! [He gets some relief from the watermelon...] [And Mong has reached too] KimC: The smell of the kanari should be lessening now (in reference to LSG) [The smell of the kanari is still lingering on his mouth] [He hopes to get some relief from the watermelon but...] [He gets the bogus empty watermelon!] [In despondency, he just sets off] [Next up HoDong Pants are too small] KimC: What will our pants are too small get now? [He prudently chooses one but...] KimC: Pants are too small, there's no time left! LSGuen: You have no time now! KimC: You have to hurry up and choose one! LSGuen: I have a question about that athlete! He looks like he's only going to stop and eat! (think he says this because KHD picks up the spoon, ready to eat even before he's picked his watermelon) [But he gets the bogus watermelon!] [Despondency...]
[Meanwhile JiWon Out of Breath] [Is anyway still late...] [He stops to slowly tie his shoelaces...] [He's left behind by the leading group] [And tries in vain one by one...] [Even though he sets off after sometime] EJW: I withdraw! I withdraw.. [His soul isn't even (inspired) to carry on for half the race...] [but now] [He discovers something!] [The leading group who are coming back from the turning point!] [Pants are too small who has chosen his watermelon] EJW: Who are those people over there? Oh? Oh? They are coming back? [He starts running again suddenly?]
Kim: Our out of breath really, has turned back and is playing foul.. [He plays foul...] [In a flash, he's in 1st place!] [Meanwhile Pants are too small who was in last place] [Becomes in 3rd place now!] [It looks serious...!] LSGuen: they look serious about this now.. KimC: It is a race that concerns their pride.. [They are presently 2/3 done with the race] [In first place, Mong] KimC: Ah out of breath! Our out of breath who was in first place is now being overtaken by pants are too small! [Now competing for 2nd spot...] [Pants are too big overtakes!] [They have to go back to the spot where the Bok Bul Bok station is...] [And this is...?] [Jiwon has already drunk from it just now...] [he didn't think about it...] [And put the kanari back on the table!] [There's nothing more about this] [Of course its kanari!] [Actually for this round's Bok Bul Bok...] [Sweet fermented rice drink vs salt water Bok Bul Bok] [MCM gets the sweet fermented rice drink] [And the next pants are too small...] LSGuen+KimC: Is it fermented rice drink or salt water? Fermented rice drink or salt water?? [Until now he's gotten 100% (the nasty stuff) completely in Bok Bul Bok...] [And this time...?] [Salt water!] [He has no luck right up to the end...] [And now the group in 3rd.4th place] [Boy who left the water gets the salt water!]
[Meanwhile at the roadside...] [Athlete Pants are too small who has stopped] [The impact of the salt water on him seems great!] [Meanwhile the 2 people in the leading group...] KimC: Boy who left the water, wow! And Mong is in first place now. LSGuen: Ahh, its getting exciting! [1st place Mong 2nd place Seung Gi!] [The real test of their ability starts now...!] KimC: Now, how will this turn out? We still don't know as of yet. LSGuen: Our athlete pants are too small was actually in first place, but he's been fallen by the salt water! [Fallen by the salt water...] [He falls to the last place!] KHD: Ahh! Its salty! [Meanwhile] KimC: Ah, now Yisunam, he's catching up! [Gradually closing up the gap, Seung Gi Yisunam] LSGuen: Ah, Yisunam has caught up! [Neck to neck!] [None of them makes a concession, its really a showdown of their pride!] KimC: Yisunam has now caught up, ah! [They are not too far away from the end line now...] [And now...] [Seung Gi tries to overtake!] [And what will the conclusion be...?] [Meanwhile Ah Out of Breath is in 3rd place] [His legs have come loose!] ---> HAHAHAHA! OMG, they are so mean to EJW! [At this time, Pants are too small who is in last place...] [Starts to run again!] [In 3rd place, Out of Breath is barely scraping along] [He doesn't want to be in last place] [He uses all his strength to start running!] KHD [I'm gonna catch you...] EJW: Drive me please! Me please! [He started running for some reason...] [The reason becomes clear in a moment] KHD [Just you wait...] [Pants are too small is closing in gradually!] EJW [Go away!] [The two people who don't want to be in last place...] [This concerns a showdown of their pride!] [Meanwhile in the leading group...] [They keep fighting for the 1st.2nd place!] [And now Seung Gi pulls away!] [He drives in a gap between them in a second!] [Athlete Seung Gi is now alone!] [He's swinging the lead with much time to spare!] [Mong who's i second place] [Has used up all his energy....!] [Seung Gi is arriving at the finishing point] [Its almost definite that he will come in first...] MCM [I'll just settle for 2nd place...] [The reason for Mong's sudden running...] [The two people who are in a critical showdown!] [Its an intense play off for 3rd.4th place!] [Mong who's in 2nd place is shocked by them...] [He runs with all his might!] [And in 1st place...] [As anticipated, Seung Gi!] [Mong takes 2nd place...] [And in 3rd place...?] [Hodong, with an intense finish!] [In the last place at the end, Jiwon] [Ah... Out of Breath...!] [Did the salt water bring his downfall?] KHD: That last stop, I thought it was water, and I just gulped it all down. I couldn't even open my eyes! I can't even see in front of me! I felt like throwing it all up then! [He doesn't have any luck...!]
[Prize ceremony] KHD: Today, for our marathon, in first place we have our athlete Lee Seung Gi. Let's give him a round of applause! [He wins a one time immunity from outdoor sleeping!] [After the game has ended...] [They are all utterly exhuasted!] [They just ran for a few kilometres...] [And they all can't pull themselves together...] [They are in serious lack of physical strength!] [We need some kind of measure for this...]
[2 weeks later] [At a Samgetangjip (shop that sells ginseng chicken)] LSG: Hello! LSGuen: Isn't this too luxury (luxurious he means) for us? LSG: Oh hyung you are here! [They are rather awkward...] LSG: Hyung, don't you feel awkward? EJW: Why? LSG: Ah, coming here, don't you feel awkward? EJW: Ah, its because (we are coming here at) night, that's why! [1N2D team feels awkward and unfamiliar here] KHD: We are together at a ginseng chicken shop...! Road variety, 1N! 2D! LSGuen: But are you sure this really is 1N2D? KHD: Why are we in a ginseng chicken shop? PD: Well, we had a marathon at Changsoo last week. Looking at all of your physical strength, I think there's really a problem with it. Because you had a tiring time, as well as at Baekdusan too, we are going to give you a treat at this ginseng chicken shop today. KHD: There are absolutely no strings attached? PD: Yea, no strings attached. Just eat well today. [The ginseng chicken that tastes great and is great for the body!] EJW: Its really one (chicken) for us each?! LSG: We should happily eat this quickly (what, is the boy afraid they will take away the food? haha!) KHD: Feel so happy now. KimC: Hyung you mean you don't know too? KHD: Don't know! KimC: Oh really, I feel more uneasy now eating so well! LSG: Ah, where's our destination this time? PD: After you guys eat today, we will travel 200km from Seoul, and go to Kangwondo. KHD: If we leave now, when will we reach~ (he's playing with words here, that's why they all laugh) KimC: Then we have to leave like now.. PD: You'll have to take the car for around 2hours.. KHD: But why are we setting off at night? PD: Actually there's a theme for our trip today. Our theme for this trip is friendship. And because our theme today is friendship, we will have you go on the trip in pairs. EJW: Eh? In pairs? PD: Yea, you guys will go in pairs. Its 11pm now, and we have until lunchtime tomorrow (12pm) LSG: What did you say? Until lunch tomorrow?
PD: Later after your dinner, you will have to write down the name of the person you wish to go on this trip with. LSG: But what happens to the person whose name doesn't even get written one? (hahaha, his expression was so funny. obviously he had someone in mind when asking ) KHD: If there are two people whose names don't get written then they can go together.
[They start voting] PD: Just write down the name of the person you feel closest to. LSGuen: But I feel close to everyone... PD: Just choose one if you feel close to everyone. And please write down your reason too. Why you want to go on a trip with this person. KHD: What if there isn't any (one who he wants to go on a trip with)? [No one he wants to go on a trip with?] KHD: No, I mean, going in pairs for guys is going to be so awkward! PD: Its alright.. EJW: Ah, but I think it will be uninteresting. We can write all we want, but what can two people do!!
[Counting the votes] Its time to declare the votes and KHD is very apparently nervous. PD: Now everyone, we have collated the votes from that you have just given and we have the results now. KHD: Ahh, don't keep us in suspense! LSG: Is there anyone with no votes at all? I want to know. KHD: There must be, isn't there? LSG: What will happen then? PD: There are.. two people with no votes. KHD: Why live? (with reference to the two people who didn't get votes, a.k.a HIMSELF, LOL!!) LSG: Hyung, your reaction is like a gambler now, you know?
[the first couple to be announced] PD: All right, I will announce the results. This is the first couple. They have gotten the most votes. Here I'm going to call out their names. KHD: Its mutual then between them, mutual! Is it mutual between them? [HoDong is touchy!] Hodong goes on a rant on how it will be awkward, so what if two people didn't get votes, etc etc. Very funny reaction from LSG next. LSG: I didn't write anyone's name for the fun of it! I didn't write anyone's name! They get on with the results. PD: This is the first couple. After I call out your names the two of you can sit together. Lee Su Guen, Mc Mong! MCM and LSGuen each got 2 votes. And they picked each other. MCM: Gimme a love kiss. And LSGuen does it! LOL. Love these crazy guys. They exchange watches like a couple ring, hahaha! PD: Now, we have our most popular couple, and now we will move on to the couple who hasn't even got one vote. I'm going to call out your names. KHD: The two people have no votes at all? PD: Yes! Hodong sighs heavily. PD: Kang Ho Dong, Kim C! LSGuen: But are these two going on some kind of filial piety sight seeing? [1N2D team's best seniors] MCM: They were the mommy and daddy last week! Things get VERY awkward between the two of them when they are forced to face each other KHD: If my reaction isn't good then there wouldn't be any excitement! LSG: KimC hyung, say something at least, you have no reaction at all now. KimC: Really.. I feel sorry, that's why.. because of me.. It really sounds very wrong, sounds like they are really in some kind of relationship, and so they all fall down laughing. KHD: Why are you sorry.. EJW: I think HoDong hyung is going to end up as the driver like at the start of the program! MCM: Ok, let's go. Let's get outside. EJW: Let's get going too. LSG: Ok, we get going too? Let's go then. We're going first! KHD: Stay for a moment more, stay for a moment. Let's go together. LSG: Ok, before we leave first, please wipe the hot pepper off! We're going! Leaving two very awkward people behind, haha. KHD: Is there really pepper on my face? KimC: Yea, on your right.. KHD: Do it for me! (like, wipe it off for him)
Bok Bul Bok for (their) Moving instruments] KHD: PD! So we just take these cars and set off now? PD: Yes, as all of you can see, we have prepared 3 cars over here, and they are all topped up with fuel. But there's only one of them which is an exception. [Today's 3 cars are specially prepared for them!] [What's more, the cars are filled with fuel!] [But, there's one difference] EJW: Exception? PD: In the 3 cars prepared, only one will have your traveling allowance included. (aka, MONEY!!~~ :D) KHD: Only one of the cars have the traveling allowance? PD: Yea. [HoDong, KimC choose the all red car!] KHD: Here, Kang Ho Dong Kim C have chosen our car. [So what is in the car?] [Tent and cooking utensils!] [How about the SuGuen Mong conbination?] KHD: One, two, three! MCM: Its traveling allowance! Traveling allowance! [Mong quickly flees with the box] MCM: Don't touch! Don't come near me, all of you! Everyone starts asking MCM not to overreact and open up the box so that they can see what's inside, but of course MCM doesn't listen. LSG and EJW get upset. LSG: Aw man, I'm not looking! (as in he doesn't want to know what's inside anymore) Caption for LSG [He's so mean, I won't look!] EJW: We are not interested, don't show it! [But...] [Even if they are not interested, they have no choice but to see...] [They got the 1,000,000won traveling allowance!] [MCM's bad luck ends and his happiness starts! conclusion...?] [Lastly, what's in JiWon and Seung Gi's car...?] KimC: Wow! Couple tees! EJW: ARE YOU HAVING US ON! (are you playing a prank/joke on us) LSG: Ah, really this is a joke. [40 sets of couple tees] EJW: ARE YOU HAVING ME ON! (are you playing a prank/joke on us) Is this some kind of a shop/business? haha, jiwon screamed so many times after the shock of seeing the 'useless' couple tees. Then LSG gets a brilliant idea after hearing EJW's frustrated scream and the two of them start prancing around in utter happiness when they realise their way out. LSG: We can start a shop~!! (meaning they can sell the shirts to earn their traveling allowance) [Sell out the couple tees to raise their traveling allowance?] EJW+LSG: We can just sell them for manwon(1,00,000 won) and we'll make it! KHD: You can't!! You can't sell them! EJW: Why not? KHD: You can't sell them off! Isn't that against the whole point? (not very sure what he says here, but its something along these lines. KHD speaks too fast for me to understand at times) [serious] LSG: No, its not that! KHD: Then we can do the same too? LSG+EJW: OF COURSE! Haha, then LSG and EJW start hanging up the tees like they are gonna sell them immediately. EJW practices his salesman tactics to MCM+LSGuen. EJW: This is 100% cotton! You know don't you? Its cotton!
KHD: So can Kim C and I get help from our friends? We have nothing you know? PD: Ok, you can get help from your friends of you manage to find them. KHD: Do you have friends? [But THEY HAVE NO FRIENDS...] PD: Since you are going in 3 pairs, each pair of you will have a PD going along on your trip. For you, Kang Ho Dong, you are specially given the new PD. Yes, and Kang Ho Dong is given the new PD Yoo, the same one he played the trick on last episode. [Awkward greeting] KHD: Everything is so awkward (uncomfortable)! Everything is awkward! How about our writer? KimC: Who is our writer? [The PD (they get) is new, and even the writer is the youngest writer!] PD: Dae Ju YAH!!!! (that's the writer's name) KHD's caption [The youngest writer, who's that again?] [This simple and honest youth...?] --->hahaha at the editors. they've got a wicked sense of humor! KHD: When did you come (join)? Dae Ju (the writer): I joined in March.. The PD tells them that its a special arrangement so that they can learn with the seniors, aka KHD. KHD gets all stressed up. KHD: The youngest writer, the youngest PD.. [Feel heavy in the stomach...] KHD: No, but we don't even have money, so how are we going to get around until tomorrow? Without money? PD Yoo! The youngest! Dae Ju yah!! Dae Ju: Yes? KHD: Where did you go??!! Just pay attention to us only! Dae Ju yah! You are the youngest, why are you paying attention to the others! PD Yoo! Come here, what are we going to do now? He gets off the car. KHD: What are we going to do about this now? The writer sneaks off when they are all gathered and look super serious. KHD: DAE JU YAH!! WHERE ARE YOU GOING!! Dae Ju: Ah, there's something I need to go take care of... KHD: What do you have to go take care of, you should be taking care of us now! KHD gets really angry and starts ranting at poor little dae ju. He asks where they should go and do now, and PD Yoo steps in to save the poor boy and gives him instructions on what to do. Suddenly, KHD explodes. KHD: NOW WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT THE SKY!! You should be paying attention and listening! Dae Ju: Ah, I was thinking about something, thinking about something! KHD: Thinking of something? (looks at the sky) This is called thinking? Dae Ju yah! You must tell us something, dae ju yah! Dae Ju: Ah, let's go to ChunChyeon! KHD: ChunChyeon why? Suddenly.. KHD: We are filming for the show now, Dae Ju yah, PD Yoo. And we are the awkward couple now, so we should make it like a drama. PD Yoo, when you became a PD, what thoughts did you have? When I become the best PD, what kind of program do I want to do? Have you thought about it? What kind of program do you want to do? PD Yoo: For me.. I want to do music programs...! [M.U.S.I.C P.R.O.G.R.A.M] KHD: Wait what's this, you are on a reality program and you want to do a music program, what's this? [I feel like going home again...] PD: I hope to work with songs in future (not sure what he says, but its along these lines) KHD: You want to work with songs? (screams at Dae Ju) WHAT ARE YOU RECORDING DOWN!!! Song song, why are you writing down song? Dae Ju:Er, I just thought about it.. KHD: Alright, then Dae Ju, when you become the best writer, what kind of program do you want to do? Dae Ju: Ah, now my mind is... KHD: [b]WHY??[/b] (he stares at poor dae ju in a scary manner) Why are you not in your right mind? Dae Ju: Ah.. I... a while later... I'll tell you 20 minutes later! [AIGOO...!] [No reaction, KimC] [PD who wants to do music programs] [The youngest writer who will answer only 20 minutes later] [But this is not the end of it] KimC: (to the cameraman) Aren't you filming for the first time on 1N2D? It's your first time right? KHD: Ah, its your first time? [They get a VJ who's shooting entertainment programs for the first time...!] Thats the end of the ep!
Been posting so much 1N2D on this blog that I've almost forgotten that this was orignally a personal blog. From the day I changed my blogskin, I've just been so concentrated on translating, translating and more translating. Tiring, but so totally worth it when I look at the benefits. Well anyway, I'll be moving all the translated articles to my new blog, http://blog.daum.net/sarangaia so that its easier to access all of them at one go. Don't worry, I'll keep posting the translations here too. Just that I want to get back to personal blogging here too.
Watched the Dark Knight on sunday with oppa, the early morning show. I think I should just stick to early morning shows and avoid the crowd in future. The ambience is just so much better in the morning, and by the time you get out of the cinema, its just nice for a hearty lunch (in this case it was Japanese food). How enjoyable life can be sometimes. Wish it could be summer vacation forever, but reality never fails to hammer itself into our lives, does't it?
The Dark Knight was the most enjoyable movie experiences I've had in a long time. Somewhere along the way of lurking in movie theatres, I've somehow gotten used to taking in sappy romantic movies and excessively expensive digitally enhanced action movies that I've forgotten how it feel to have a movie provoke thoughts in me. For once, I didn't spend (ok, it was free tickets anyway, but still) time and money to stare at the bright lights onscreen in an exceedingly big room with the lights off and an overactive sound system only to come out not being able to even reiterate the plot coherently at the end of it. Surprise, surprise! There was actually meaning to the blockbuster, which does not include the age old cliche of the hero will always be the perfect chialrous knight who never fails to have everything miraculously turn out well for him at the last minute. No, its the dark Knight, so its just befitting to have his shining armour, oops, I mean, batsuit tarnished. Even though one would wonder how on earth do you tarnish a black batsuit in the first place. Foreboding? Maybe.
I've had people give me dirty looks when we discuss the Dark Knight. The conversation goes a little like this. Friend: Have you watched Dark knight? Me: Yea man. Its good. Friend: YES!!! *squeals* Joker was great! Batman was handsome! Action scenes were awesome! Music was incredible! Wish the guy didn't die though. Me: Yea. It was awesome. I've never thought it possible to bring together the entire theme of anarchism so nicely, with all the subtle shadows of the infamous incidents that have happened in the few years of late.. And as I prattle on, the dirty looks and rolled eyes will always seal my mouth shut faster than you can say super glue. There are people who look for meaning in things, and then there are those who just want to see the surface enjoyment and leave things as that. Not that there's anything wrong with it. After all, there are things that you could never understand and distill meaning out of, even if you spent your whole life on it. How do you psycho analyse the Joker who just wants to watch the world 'crash and burn' for no reason at all? The entire routine of antagonising Mr Batman into action, just for the laughs of it, a rethorical cycle that just absurdly continues for the kick of it with no end in sight. Doesn't it ring a bell somewhere? An entire establishment that crashed and burnt at the whims of the guys who couldn't be bothered about who dies in the process, all in name of attaining the greater order. The anarchic Joker mocks authority and establishment, and sneers at any attempt to classify and explain his psychotic, mass murdering ways (pop psychology anyone?) Ironically, by rebelling against the system in his non conformist ways, he actually conforms to the stereotypes the system has established for him, the sad and unchangeable contradiction of anarchism. The comtempt the anarchist feels towards the 'schemers', as our dear joker put so succintly across, his triumph and delight at outsmarting the plotters who scheme their way trying to capture him without a plan only mirrors his failure to realise that he too, behaves in the exact same schemeing and organised way. Come on. All that action executed like clockwork, the prudently planted bombs, the masked hostages, are we honestly going to believe that no planning was going on? Impossible.
But unlike the anarchists of Conrad's books who go in a big circle trumpeting their anti-establishment plans just to end up with nothing to show for their pathetic efforts that go wrong at every possible turn, our joker comes out victorious here. Batman the vigilante may be incorruptable (alright, that remains to be seen), but there are the most saintly and virtous out there who will fall with a light knock in the right places. The purer and higher the hope, the more pieces it will shatter into, the fragmented world that we know will forever remain imperfect. In the face of such a gloomy prospect, we can only build our hopes in the most selfish manner, to push all the responsiblity to the vigilantes in the darkness of the night. Keep mum when he's doing the dirty work, but stone him when he's not needed, in the belief that everything will be accepted without any complaints. But does such a person actually exist for us to pin our hopes on? Or maybe we'll see more leading the life of simple pleasures like the joker who "like(s) fuel, bombs and dynamites" for their simple ability to make everything go cleanly up in flames. Do you remember, the three have a thing in common too. "They're cheap". Well, we've certainly seen many cases of people attaining their aim of getting (un)wanted attention by means of this classic and inexpensive method the joker is so fond of, haven't we? Hopefully they get cleaned up.
Never mind if you think its all smart talking. Watch the dark knight and you'll realise they have more smart talking witty one liners you would have thought possible in 3 hours. Even if you don't, you would still have the bragging rights of having watched the hottest blockbuster this summer.
P.S: RIP Heath Ledger. Its late but better than never. It was a great performance.
Opening The guys are preparing for their opening. PD: There's been a new PD allocated for our 1N2D team! Enter skinny guy new PD. PD: I'm still new, so I don't even know my way around KBS yet.. EJW: What PD is this! Its your house, house! (think he's referring to how KBS should be a PD's house and yet the newbie doesn't even know his way around.) Flash forward to their 'fight scene' to come. The poor newbie is in for a shock! (be back to fill this part in. video is not loading properly for some reason) Opening by KHD as usual. They talked a little about their Baekdusan trip. Apparently EJW had the runs while in China. EJW: Half the toilet roll disappeared in one day! (referring to how bad his runs were) I got angry suddenly, so I called up the main writer. Apparently the main writer had the runs too, haha.
KHD: Finally on 1N2D, we are going to have some flexibility. EJW: What kind of flexibility are we going to have? KHD: They (the PDs?) know we've been through a lot of hardships.. MCM: Ah, it was really tiring.. KHD: For our trip this time, everyone, for our trip we are going on a vacation (as in a real holiday)! MCM: Wow! A vacation? LSGuen, KimC: So we are going to get to eat watermelons and stuff and also sleep? (I'm not too sure what they said here) LSG: Really? EJW: Why do I not feel happy, but really uneasy? LSGuen: Exactly~ KHD whips out this scroll, which he promptly opens the wrong way MCM: I feel so worried! KHD: One, two, three! A 4 member family will get 20,000won to go on a 1 night 2 days holiday! They explain the rationale behind the plan. Most families in korea have 4 members, and since its summer, most people would be going on holiday. So they've planned for it to work like any normal family, with 20,000won, which would be the typical expenditure.
KHD: So now we are going to do a simoolation (he pronounces this wrongly) on 1night 2 days as a four member family. LSG: SIMULATION!! Not simoolation! So KHD explains what they will do on the trip, and the the obvious question of who gets to go on the trip pops up. LSG: But which four of us are going to get to go on the trip? LSGuen: But we are a family of 6? Someone complains in the background that he's hungry. Its either MCM or EJW. LOL! LSG: Ah, four of us are going and so two of us are going to get left out? LSGuen: Ah, what else would it be? (referring to how annoying the PDs are for cooking up this scheme, HAHA!) LSG: Then what happens to the two people who get left behind? (Ahh, seung gi yah, its YOU who's gonna get left behind, smart qn to ask! HAHA) PD: We are not leaving two of the members out... its that most Korean families have 4 members, so we have to do a simulation with 4 members here. LSG: So we'll have four of us and the other two get dropped out and go home? (notice he stresses on the words drop out, haha) PD: What's this talk about dropping out, its not really dropping out.. LSG: But it IS dropping (two of them) out! KimC: No, but how are the two going to get there then... Everyone starts making a fuss that two of them are going to get left out. MCM: (When we go on a holiday) The puppy also gets to go! (meaning even pets get to go, so its not really a 4 member thing, LOL) I can be the puppy... EJW: I really think we should do this quickly (and get over and done with it) So they start discussing who to go where. LSGuen: I'll go to the car now.. I'm the driver ain't I! EJW: I'm DEFINITELY part of the family this time. LSG: NO! There's no reason for this! EJW: Look here. What is a family? Isn't it parents and their kids? Right? KHD: Right. EJW: I'm the KID! (he says 자식 here, which can mean kid (children) or rascal/fellow) Son! LSG: I'm also the son of the house! KHD: Really, this rascal (자식) is hilarious... (haha!) So its decided that the ones who get left behind will have to get a part time job to earn money and find their way to the destination the 'family' is headed to. And KHD decides to pick the two outcasts by nominations. Captions [the scary nomination time!] KHD: All right, now we have to nominate and pick out the two people. LSG feels uneasy about it and immediately protests. LSG: Wait a minute, let's not do it by nominating! MCM is also apprehensive and the two of them keep protesting. Captions [Uneasiness]
KHD: I nominate Lee Seung Gi! LSG protests! KHD: MCM is popular too, but your popularity is really much higher! Look, you are really popular. So (LSG) has no money. Even though he has no money, he'll be able to get around by hitch hiking! KHD figures that even without money, LSG would be able to find someway, somehow LSGuen: Its Lee Seung Gi! HAHA, LSGuen was so happy. 2 seconds later he'd be in the same boat with LSG! KHD: At the same time we need another person out. So I nominate LSGuen at the same time! LSGuen complains. KHD: EJW is the kid. So tanyway I look more like a dad, and you don't look like a mom anyway. So for this family you are obviously out! LSGuen: No wait, how about KimC hyungnim? KHD: He's the MOM! I vote LSGuen! LSGuen: I vote Kang Ho Dong! Right, Seung Gi? LSG: No, if he (KHD) goes, it will cost a lot of fuel! (???) KHD: I don't think so! EJW: I thought that was chinese! (referring to how KHD's pronunciation is really bad) I ond't think so! I don't think so! HAHA! LSGuen starts giving his reason why he thinks KHD should be the one taken out, and KHD starts bullying him, kicking and stepping on him. Obviously someone has to give way here, and its not gonna be our KHD. And that's settled. The teams are formed.
LSG and LSguen ask KHD to give them some money, but he refuses obviously. LSGuen: Give us some money. You have 20,000 won, just give us 10,00 won! LSG: Honestly, since we are going alone, you should give us some money! LSGuen: Just give us 10,00 won now.. KHD gives the incredulous face. KHD: Ah.. Its really my first time seeing them.. who are these people? Captions [who are they?] LSGuen: No, just give us 10,000won.. KHD: Its our first time meeting, why do you KEEp asking me for money!? This is ridiculous.. (he walks off) LSG: Hyung! HYUNG!!! LSG tries MCM. LSG: Excuse me! [trying again to beg for 20,000won] LSGuen: Just give us the 20,000 won, really... MCM: I have no power! (I have no say in this) KHD: Yah! I just got an idea. LSG: What? KHD: Look, you and Seung Gi, you guys have no money now. So just go on a live radio show and do a performance to earn some money! KimC: Yah, that's a really good idea!
So KHD and family set off. MCM: I'm daddy's daughter! (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!~~) YOu gave birth to me like that, daddy! (OMG! LOL!) KHD: Shall we go eat a bowl of cold noodles? We should get something to eat before we set off.. The rest laugh at him. KimC starts saying something, to which the captions refers to KimC as [he's the mommy] EJW: Daddy, then I want to eat a hamburger! Daddy, I want a hamburger! (to KimC) MOMMY!!! ... ... They have nothing to say to this.
Back at KBS, LSG and LSGuen are on the steps. LSG is so funny when sitting at the steps with LSGuen. LSG: I wish we could earn ALL the money! Everything would follow after that! You can see he's getting frustrated. LSG: I have bring along these clothes myself too? The staff are not coming along? My manager is not coming along too?? Ooh, that incredulous expression. Such a cutie! LSG: Hyung do you have anything we can pawn? LSGuen: I have nothing! Ring.. LSG: The ring! Ah this! LSGuen: No we can't! Not this! LSG: You'll be able to find it back later anyway.. LSGuen: No, we can't, not my ring.. [and now] [the flippers make their appearance!] LSGuen: This is interesting. LSG: Let's try the radio (performance) once now! If that doesn't work out... (he stares at LSGuen's wedding ring)
They decide to try out the radio station. But they are denied access by the guy because they have no prior appointment. So they get to the office and start scribbling furiously. LSGuen: Oh, just get rid of those flippers of yours will you! They head over to the recording room where the PD is. We find out whats' written on their paper.
[Hong Jin Kyung ROCKS!] [Please give us a gig!] ---> a live performance chance so that they can earn money. PD gives the green light and the two boys enter the room. LSG asks if they can have a job appearing live on radio. PD asks why didn't they at least call in advance. LSGuen wriggles his way out of responsibility saying its not him (who came out with the idea). PD says he thought the 1N2D team members are always too busy to appear (on radio)? They do some explaining and PD asks them to hold on. Meanwhile DJ sees them and goes "I'M GOING MAD!" PD requests that they pull in the listener ratings, and asks if they've prepared any live performances, which stumps LSG for a moment. DJ at the same time goes "We have in our studio now, Lee Su Guen and.. who's that?" LSG smiles sheepishly hearing that. Captions go [Seung Gi's day of ordeals] PD continues "And Lee Seung Gi have arrived. Ah, why have they come? Let's find out." And that's it! They got on the show And LSGuen requests for someone to call KHD and inform him.
LSGuen: HI!!!! Hong Jin Kyung ROCKS! Hong Jin Kyung ROCKS! DJ: Why are the two of you here? LSG: Ah, really this is..! We are on now aren't we? Live radio show! DJ: Yes, so let's start (an introduction) with Lee Seung Gi! LSG: Ah, dear viewers of *radio programme name*, AH, dear listeners! I'm really really sorry for the sudden introduction.. Meanwhile the family on the car tune in. (I have no idea what programme it is)
Impromptu radio part time job LSGuen: If we talk about the situation now that we are in, Kang Ho Dong is a BAD GUY! While he's comfortable there, me and Seung Gi are having (a tough time), he just left us behind! DJ: But today 1N2D is setting off.. LSGuen: yes, when setting off, do you know who is the driver? DJ: Lee Su Guen LSGuen: Exactly. But they went without me.. MCM: I'm the driver here! And the DJ continues chatting with them on the day's 1N2D filming. [radio live broadcasting in progress] DJ: Hahaha.. oh but you won't get paid for your (radio) appearance! If you don't sing a song, you're not considered to have appeared (on the radio show)! MCM: Wah.. she's great.. DJ: Alright, so please prepare yourselves (in that corner). Let's give them a round of applause! LSGuen: I'll be giving my members some messages during the song! Dear listeners, I love you! LSG: Yes, really love you guys! Our odd couple starts singing. Mujogon!!~ And the awesome lyrics begin. LSGuen: Kang Ho Dong you shouldn't do that! (haha, shouldn't leave them behind! but its funnier because they did!) Ho Dong you shouldn't do that! EJW: ! Listen to that! He said "Kang Ho Dong you shouldn't do that" just now! KHD: ... LSGuen: JJa jja ra jja ra jja ra EUN JI WON! [this time its me?] Continue with the song (do check out the lyrics to the song, LSGuen totally changed it SOOO well!) LSGuen: .... Remove Ho Dong and I like everything else~! (HAHAHA!!~) KHD: ! LSGuen: .... MONGI DRIVE WITH YOUR EYES STRAIGHT AHEAD! (it actually means drive carefully) ... MONGI YAH~~ .... KIMC HYUNG you shouldn't be like that! KimC: Me what? Everyone is staring at the family of 4 in the car! LOL, I can imagine just how funny the entire thing was on radio and all. Man, I love their spontaneous madness on the show! LSGuen: ... Let their tires punture! (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! OMGOMGOMG!!~) ... Since we are appearing on radio, give us our pay, GIVE US OUR PAY!!! DJ [I'm going crazy!] LSG: ... Let their tyres puncture! JJa jja ra jja ra jja ra jjan jjan jjan! Oh my goodness. The two silly boys! DJ: Wah.. there's a big commotion/confusion on the bulletin boards now for the listeners (i think she's referring to those online bulletins where the radio listeners can also post stuff). There's a commotion! Honestly, this time the radio listeners have ranked you first. LSG+LSGuen: Wahhhh!!~~~ (LSGuen starts chanting) Move backward, KANG HO DONG! DJ: We can connect to KHD on the phone now! LSG, LSGuen: Oh really? KHD: Let's shout together.. 1N~2D! The DJ and KHD start chatting and the DJ mentions how LSGuen has been airing his unhappiness towards KHD during the song. LSGuen: When did i ever? KHD: I HEARD IT ALL!! Yes, so we need to fix his habit of saying things behind our backs! (HAHAHA!!) And they continue talking for a while, and KHD hangs up. The DJ continues talking about being surprised at KHD's 7 years of sirreum (to which MCM was like, isn't it 6 years? LOL) and how KHD has a type of charisma as an MC, which obviously made KHD really happy. LSGuen: He's the strongest guy not without a reason! He's a respectable person! [suddenly concerned for his own benefit, Su Guen?] ---> haha! yea, he was obviously trying to get into KHD's good books here, hahaha! LSGuen: If a junior has any shortcomings, he will keep on pointing it out again and again! (HAHAHA!!) DJ: Well, as a parting, introduce yourself to the listeners with 'chinese'! KHD: Using chinese, HAHAHA!! LSGuen: (in his phony chinese) Thank you to all the listeners who love HongJinGong's programme! We hope you will tune in often in future. Everybody, together, 1NIGHT, 2DAYS!! EJW: Oh Su Guen hyung, fighting!! Lee Su Guen is the best! And so the programme ends with (my favourite!) Let's go on a vacation. Love them so much, they're so funny! LSGuen: Will we get money? (what a one track mind!) LSG: I'm sorry.. I'm so sorry (for the sudden interruption) And LSG picks up his flippers again, LOL!! KHD starts lip syncing, and MCM motions behind him that he's crazy For their effort, LSG and LSGuen get 30,000 won each, which excites LSG a lot, and he keeps bowing and saying thanks (what a cute polite boy!). PD: What are you going to take later then? LSG: With this we can take the KTX! (its an express train ) The two boys greet everyone again and go on their way again.
The wierd family EJW: I'm hungry!~ KHD: Jiwon, you want to eat between meals? EJW: I want soft ice cream!! (I'm assuming he wants soft serve here, lol) KHD: But you can't eat it now, we should be frugal with our money... KimC and KHD try to persuade EJW that he shouldn't be eating at this point of time, when MCM the daughter suddenly butts in and TOTALLY ruins the mood, LOL!! MCM: Daddy, buy me a miniskirt! KHD: ... KimC: ... EJW: ... MCM: ... the other family members have nothing to say.. LOL!! After this, they start plotting against the new PD, cooking up their elaborate hidden camera plot. Meanwhile..
After radio performance LSGuen: Oh my god, just put that away! (referring to the flippers, LOL) Why do you KEEP carrying it? On the phone LSGuen: (passing the phone to LSG) I called 114.. LSG: Ah, hello! Is this 114? [HUH-DANG APPEARS] ---> i LOVEEEEE the editors sense of humour!! LSG: I want to know about information on the trains arrival and departure and prices for Seoul station, I was wondering if you have the information or what number should I call? LSGuen: We can just go and ask about that at the Seoul subway station! Ah, I really don't know what to do with you.. We can just check at the Seoul station, why call 114? LSG: There's a number for Seoul station? (What??!! My dear boy, what are you asking??!!) LSGuen falls down laughing. Captions [Whats this / He's not even Kim Jong Min's junior...] ---> meaning LSG is even worse (more blur) than KJM! LOL!! LSGuen: What, then are people in Seoul station supposed to use telegraphs then? LSG: No.. Is there a phone number for Seoul station? (OMG, my dear boy, what else would people working in the seoul station use to contact others? OF COURSE there's phones and phone numbers for the station!!) So they call the station and a lady picks up. LSG: Oh, hello! We want to go to Changsoo from Seoul station.. Lady: If you are going to Changsoo, you can take the subway from yeongdongpo station to namwon station, then take a bus to Changsoo. LSGuen: What time does the train run? LSG: We're asking so many questions... Is it really ok? (oh my god. that's what the hotline is for boy!!) LSGuen: They are SUPPOSED to guide you through your many questions!! The lady tells them it will cost them 20,100 won for the train tickets. Then our Seung Gi goes on a sorry roll. The boy is just so polite! He kept apologising to the lady when asking questions, and he has so many ways of putting it across (which doesn't exactly apply in english since sorry is sorry and there's no other way to say it). LSG: Then, I'm sorry but when does the last train leave? I'm sorry but can you... In that case, I'm really sorry, really really sorry ... LSGuen: You're sorry again? Give me the phone! LSG refuses to, with a cute smile and gesture I'm not sure if its just me, but staring at the lousy low quality video on youtube, LSG's eyelashes look really really long and pretty? Haha, his eyes kept attracting me during this part It was like they were screaming 'Look at me!' Lady: For booking of tickets.. may I know if are you a member? LSG: I'm not.. LSGuen: I'M A MEMBER! (snatches the phone away) I'm a member of the train company! LSG: Hold on a minute, sorry, hahaha! LSGuen: I'm from the 1N2D and we are on our way, the person on the phone with you just now was Lee Seung Gi.. Lady: Can you please repeat that again? LSGeun: Ah, the person on the phone with you just now was Lee Seung Gi. Lady: Ah! Dear customer, you will need to be a member of the train company and know your card and password. You can't book tickets without membership! Lady doesn't care if they are lying or not! Can't even be bothered to find out! LOL! LSGuen: I told her it was Lee Seung Gi on the phone with her and she was like "Ah, he's not a member with us!'
HAHAHA! They then set off to music bank to look for a job. LSG: Hyungnim, hello! I'm sorry.. You know don't you? I'm on 1N2D now... we are falling behind with our progress, so are there part time jobs or anything like that for us? Or I could do a prerecorded performance today, so can we get paid in advance? (HAHAHA. he only sees money now doesn't he?) PD: Advance pay for your performance? Where on earth do we have advanced payment here! LSGuen: If not then is there anything we can do? [if they get another 20,000won, it will be enough for the train fees to namwon...] [a while later] [the mop makes its appearance] LSG: Where, where? [the two people with the part time job they requested for] [its starting / from mopping the floor!] flash to the family of four having fun, then back to the two guys at music team. [meanwhile Seung Gi of the behind-in-progress team] Backstage crew: Seung Gi ssi, please tell Wondergirls to be on standby. [this time he's attending to Wondergirls (juniors)]----> love their sense of humour. they actually put a little icon saying wondergirls are his juniors. LOL! LSG: Its so embarrassing, really! (knocks) Wondergirls please be on standby! [its mutually embarrassing] he gets pushed in by LSGuen LSG: Ah, wait a minute, why (are you doing this)? [embarrassed Seung Gi] [POK!] --> he hits his head [he doesn't see the camera anymore now] LSG: Ah, this is really, its going to be so embarrassing on the show! It feels strange, doesn't it? LSGuen: I'm not really bothered, but for Seung Gi.. because you are a singer on stage... LOL. he feels really embarrassed. LSGuen (yawning): Ah, this is so tiring. [its even more tiring than Baekdusan...] then its time for all the funny captions, with LSG's 동경 playing in the background. [finally] [Seung Gi sits on the floor] enter the song lyrics, with the image of KHD and the others on the car. 'will you remember this day?' 'will you think of my name?' Staff: Ah, Seung Gi you are suffering~ LSG: Ah.. don't just look at the (bright lights of) the stage... the work behind the scene is no joke! [sad plight] [embarrassment] enter tablo, who's close to Seung Gi. Tablo gives him a totally baffled look, like 'what are you doing on the floor?'
080713 1 Night 2 Days The base camp for today is at someone's house, and they set off eagerly there. KHD: This is nice! EJW: Is it that house? MCM: Really, there's nothing here.. (yea, it is pretty bare there) KHD: (outside the house) Excuse me.. Annyeonghaseyo! Guy opens the door. KHD: Hello, so nice to meet you, we are 1 night 2 days.. The guys greet the house owners. They're apparently koreans, not Chinese. I'm not too sure about the details, just saw it on the comments section on youtube, so take this with a pinch of salt. So KHD leads the guys into greeting the house owners with a big bow (which is rather formal), and this confuses the house owners, who have no choice but to follow suit (its basic courtesy i think ) CAptions here are HILARIOUS. [they greet the (house owners) first] [bowing to us?] [? ?] [the forced bow, they have no choice!] HAHAHA KHD: Just greet us comfortably.. (i.e, no need for the big bow, LOL!) Notice here, LSG gives a 90 degree bow. Have I mentioned how I adore the guy for being so polite and appropriate? KHD: Are we disturbing you? Mommy&Daddy: Aieee.. No, you are not! (the daddy is so awkwardly endearing) KHD: We're not disturbing you? Let's get your son to introduce (the family) to us. Son: Ok. (refers to his dad) Dad. KHD: (paused for a second. maybe he doesnt know how to react to this really succinct introduction) Let's give a hand of applause for the Dad! Son: Mom. KHD: Let's give a hand of applause for Mom! Son: Girlfriend. KHD: HAHAHA!! Yah.. girlfriend eh.. applause! And? Son: Sister. KHD: Ahh, your sister. Applause! Mom: She's currently in (Dae Sung) high school now.. KHD: Ahh.. so she's in high school now.. which year? Sister: 2nd year. KHD: Oh.. so how did you feel about 1 night 2 days coming to you house? Mom: She was so excited, everyday! KHD: Ooooh.. Who did you MOST want to see then? Don't tell us now, just come and hug the person you wanted to see most. Someone in the background: Just go give the oppa you've been wanting to see most a hug. KHD: Here.. let's go! The girl stands up and the other guys start remarking "Ah.. you see? AGAIN! AGAIN! Just look at this!" Yes, she picks LSG! No surprise here, haha. LSG stands up to give her a hug. KHD: Mr Lee Seung Gi, you popularity is really great.. LSG: (shy but obviously happy ) Aiee... no hyung.. KHD: Hmm, then our daddy here, did you actually know what kind of a program 1 Night 2 Days is? Dad: Yea!~ KHD: Do you know our faces? Dad: I know your faces! KHD: Oh!!~ (points to himself) Name? Dad: Yea? KHD: Name? Dad: ... name.. Kim Ho Dong? KANGHD starts cracking up because the dad changed his surname KHD: (bowing) I'm Kang Ho Dong. And.. (asking him for KimC's name) Dad: Man, I don't know the names. My wife watches (1N2D) regularly though. KHD: Oh, then Mom, you give a try. Mom: Kang Ho Dong, KimC, lee Su Guen (and he lets out an exaggerated WOAH!, LOL), Lee Seung Gi, MC Mong? Eun Ji Won? I watched the program well.. KHD: Ah, so that's it.. Dad, who did you want to see the most? Dad: Kang Ho Dong.. Doing sirreum (wrestling)! I wanted to see that! KHD: OOOH! In this case, Dad, you actually knew I was a wrestler back then? Dad: Yea, I knew! Yahhhh all the guys sigh in wonder. KHD: Mom, so if we are going to take up (this room) in the house, where are the rest of the family going to sleep? Dad: We'll go somewhere else. We'll be putting up outside the house! KHD falls down again, and questions if the arrangement is ok. Mom: We have many relatives in this area.. The guys: Ah... so this is the case.. KHD: Mom, sing us a song! Mom: Ahh.. I really dont sing well.. The guys bug her to sing Mom: Even if i don't sing it well, I'l still have to sing a few words.. The guys are happy to hear that. Mom starts singing. Apparently the song goes "You are the best..". It sounds like a really old oldie. LSGuen gets up to do his pepper dance again, LOL. Mom actually doesn't sing too bad! And our Huh-dang gets up to do his bounce routine.
Washing up LSGuen: KimC hyung! Wash my feet. He's getting the losers to give him some personal services, LOL KimC: I'm not a slave.. LSGuen: What kind of talk is this? He's not gonna do it? MCM: I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll wash for you.. LSGuen: Brush my teeth for me too. LSG starts nonchanlantly brushing his teeth even when he hears LSGuen ordering the others to brush his teeth and wash his feet. [a while later..] MCM is brushing LSGuen's teeth! [a monkey slave's teeth brushing service..] MCM: Your tongue, hyung! He sticks it out. MCM brushes it HARD, and causes LSGuen to gag, LOL. KHD then washes his face too at the small tap. KHD: Come here, Suguen ah.. I'll help you wash up. [the next slave KHD] LSGuen sticks his feet out at a still busy face washing KHD. LOL, then KHD really starts washing his feet, after which he proceeds to wash LSGuen's face like one would wash a kid's face. He pinches LSGuen's nose to mimic how a parent would get his kid to blow his nose. And guess what? The funnyman REALLY blew his nose! He apparently blew and snot came out, which caused KHD to scream. KHD: AHHHH!! HAHAHA! AHHHH!!! YOU ARE GONNA DIE, YOU!!!! YOU REALLY BLEW YOUR NOSE?! LSG stands at the side in half disgusted amusement, and does this thing with his long, pretty fingers You can see he was a little disgusted, LOL. LSG: Your snot even came to your lips, didn't it? LSGuen: Ah, my snot really came out.. LSG gets all excited and a little disgusted too? HAHAHA. At any rate, he grabbed his hair again, LOL. LSG: Hyung, can you pour some water on my hair for me once? LSG then proceeds to give KHD instructions on pouring water on his head and hands him the shampoo too. The guy is so funny, he actually got into push up position to let KHD wash his hair! And he STILL makes noises when he gets his hair washed LSG: Oh, Oh! (pour the water) above! KHD was holding the pail below LSG's face then and he took LSG's words literally and splashed the water UPWARDS, onto the poor boy's face, HAHAHA. LSG: Ahh! Stop it! Why (are you doing this)? Aie, I said above my head.. (stops KHD who's about to pour more water onto him) Wait, wait wait! (pour the water on my) hands, hands hands! Oh! AH! My eyes.. my eyes can't be opened now! Meanwhile, KimC is brushing his hair, and EJW is watching in amusement behind him. EJW: ooooh... sanchez! KimC gets his guitar out and starts singing bessa me, while LSGuen acts like a country bumpkin passerby and tries to give KimC money, to which KimC doesnt even bother to accept. And other guys just keep laughing madly in the background. So what does LSGuen do? Kick KimC aside and close the door of course. Literally. Chilling out So country bumpkin LSGuen got tired of 'busker' KimC rejecting his money, and decided to shove him out of the way by giving him a great big kick and slamming the door shut behind him. Mexican Kim gets up smiling with his guitar, and speaks ever so relaxedly. KimC: Yah.. you're gonna die... Lee Su Guen. KimC is adorable in his moments, isn't he? After this little funny episode, the guys sit outside the door and chill. KHD: PD, what time are we getting up tomorrow? PD: We're getting up at 2.30am (!!!!!!) and setting off at 4am. KHD: Hahaha.. do you know what time it is now? PD: I have no idea. KHD: Hahaha.. its 12am now! Why are we even (planning on) sleeping? Its hard on the guys, even harder on the staff too. Hats off to them! Anyway, they all head of to sleep, winning sirrem team LSG+LSGuen+EJW in the house, KHD+KimC+MCM outside.
Pep talk Ok, I'm not so sure about this part, can't really hear the guys clearly, so I'll try. Hopefully eequeezee can correct me when she sees this episode this week. LSG: Will there be a time when I will laugh and look back at this? EJW: Hm. [silence, then suddenly] Grandfather Seung Gi... LSG: Yes? EJW: Grandfather Su Guen... LSGuen (in his grandfatherlu voice): Yes.. Thinking back about those days.. The three boys start muttering like as if they really were old. LSGuen: KimC went last year right? (I'm guessing it means he passed on? LOL) MUAHAHAHA, LSG and EJW start laughing like mad. LSGuen: No matter how you look at us, he seems like the one who would go first.. EJW: Try thinking when Hodong goes.. LSGuen: Well, he sure ate a lot from then till now.. Thinking about the time we went to Baekdusan, really.. EJW: Aigooo.. Back then Hodong believed so much in his strength and ran like he was boiling (? i didn't understand this).. He had so much energy.. LSGuen: That was when he was DESCENDING Baekdusan! When we are reborn, maybe the two lands would have already reunited.. LSG: That's a wish? When will we be reunited.. EJW: Enough of reunification already! They continue to chatter about how they'd be like in future. LSG: (in his grandfather voice) Let's all shout together! 1Night! KHD: 2 DAYS!! They all wake up. KHD says he's got something important to tell the guys and gets them to go out of the house to the tent. EJW: What's it again? Don't you see I'm dying? (haha) Coming out of the house. EJW: Its 12!! KHD: Precisely.. so come out quickly! EJW: Ah, you can just tell us tomorrow! We have 4 hours then.. KHD: (annoyed) COME HERE QUICKLY! They all sit in the tent. KHD: All right, we are coming to the end of all the complications, and tomorrow we'll be off to BDS at 4am. Since we are going to the Heaven Lake, the 1N2D team has prepared something for us. (unzipping his jacket) Don't be too shocked. From now on its gonna be 100% real. Real seawater from Dokdoh. He produces the bottle, and the guys just stare on. I guess at that ungodly hour, they weren't in the right frame of mind to connect to its significance. Anyway, he then produces another 3 bottles of sea water, all taken by people from the respective islands. Obviously the 1N2D team has been planning very carefully for this for a long time. I was really really touched when I saw the little messages from the locals who filled the bottle. Such simple and pure well wishes. KHD: We'll be pouring these into the Heaven Lake. What significance does this have? EJW: I understand now. When these goes into the lake, its like a reunion. LSG: So we have water from north, south, east and west from our country, and we are all together in the Heaven Lake, we'll all meet one day. All the guys sigh in amazement. After some more discussion, they go back to their places to sleep. LSGuen: I thought KHD was gonna play a joke on us.. but I turned out to be really touched.. Now the guys start getting really excited about their trip for the next day, and can't wait for it to come.
Waking up Its 2.40am and we have LSG with a toothbrush stuck in his mouth, counting down. LSG: WAKE UP!!!!!!~ MCM makes a wierd sound, haha. Anyway they all wake up and clear up, while LSG sits down to scribble furiously a thank you note for the family. I love the thoughtful gesture. He's just so appropriate and well behaved, this boy of ours. Hope he stays that way for a long time to come. They pack up and are about to leave. LSG: Ah, I'm so going to pack less of a load next time.. HAHAHA. He's so funny with his ways. Dragging that huge luggage along As for the letter, this is what I could make out. "We express our heartfelt gratitude to you, so sorry for not being able to send our greetings to you before we leave. Again, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Do contact us in Seoul! - KBS 1Night 2Days." And so, they set off to baekdusan.
Setting off KHD starts talking about how they have to try to get to the starting point as soon as possible, and that the time is now 4.00am (which is weird, since I saw the clock on the bus said 3.40am? LOL) The guys then all marvel at the rising sun and some grand music plays in the background.
Fast forward their bus trip and they finally get off. KHD: Seung Gi yah, how old are you now? LSG: 23 years old (for those confused over why he's 23 and not 21, pls refer to my post some time back on it.) KHD: If you are 23, then the difference between our ages is.. (he calculates) 16 years. If you look at it, I got here earlier than Seung Gi.. (referring to his earlier debut? hahaha). I was in sirruem when I was only 19.. LSG: The memories from then are still fresh in your mind aren't they? KHD: Ah.. If you look at this today, it'll seem like we'll be going there forever! (I'm not sure what he means.. maybe how the memory of them going to BDS will seem to stick forever?) KHD says something else about 20 years ago that I can't decipher. LSG: Really, 1 Night 1 Days is a great program. And so the guys head to the entrance, where EJW is busy taking sel-ca of himself. EJW: Now you are looking at.. Chang Baek San. Peace out. 1Night, 2Days~ While the guys are walking, they see a HUGE dog (?). I have no idea if its a dog or something else, lol. Anyway the red captions are super funny. [Baekdusan's TIGER??] MCM goes over to have a look, and LSG decides to be funny and pushes MCM towards that HUGE animal. MCM: Let's take a picture, let's take a picture! VJ: Isn't that the kind that costs money? (like those touristy picture taking stuff) [Bingo..] KHD: Yah, that's gonna cost money, let's go, LET'S GO! (HAHAHA)
At baekdusan So the guys finally are near Baekdusan, and the sights along the way are pretty! KHD (to LSG): You can drink the water from the Heaven lake.. LSG: Really? KHD: Yea, its that clear and fresh.. EJW: Natural moss! PD goes on to explain the presence of the moss. They realise that there's both cold and hot water running side by side. MCM: There's cold water running.. and there's hot water running too... What's this? LSGuen: It means Cold.hot water all able (for use) (HAHA at his hot.cold tap reference)
They go further. LSG: Hyung, surely that not snow? LSGuen: Oh yes, it is.. but.. LSG: Really? How can there be snow right there? Well, his question is not answered. KimC and KHD start talking something about snow. MCM: Hyung, is that the Heaven Lake? KHD: Its from Heaven lake.. They decide to proceed on quickly. EJW: WOW!!! LET'S GO QUICKLY!! LSG: Olreum waterfall, olreum waterfall! KimC: ChangBaek waterfall! All of them are amazed at the sights. KHD: Its so beautiful! LSG starts filming the waterfalls with a huge camera. LSG: Wow! There's snow at the side. SNOW! MCM: Wow, its really beautiful.
The guys stop to try the water. Man, I'd love to go there someday. The place looks so naturally beautiful! LSG excitedly calls for KHD. LSG: Hodong hyung!! Hodong hyung! (awww.. ain't it cute he calls for KHD first? ) Its hot here! (points to the water) Water is hot here! KHD: Here's cold water and over there its hot? LSG: Wow.. how's this possible? KimC: Wow.. I'm really at a loss for words.. LSG starts coming out with his wierd Huh-dang theories again. LSG: So up there its like cold water on one side and hot water on the other! (referring to the two streams of water from at the waterfall, HAHA) KHD then explains why the water is hot and cold on two sides.
Now, the guys have finally reached one of their toughest challenge, the stairs that seem to stretch up forever. EJW: When you look here, its a TOTALLY steep flight of stairs! At the end of it is Heaven lake. KHD starts going up the flight the stairs. In front of him are a couple, the girlfriend on the boyfriend's back. LSG goes behind them and gives the thumbs up sign. LSG: When I get a girlfriend in future, I'll also want to carry my girlfriend up Baekdusan on my back! To heaven Lake.. (aww... such a cutie pie) Haha, then LSG starts filming himself, and showing us to the ice rocks again that he found so fascinating on the way to the stairs just now. LSG: Let's see clearly now again, one more time, what we couldn't earlier. Wah! Ice rocks! Ice rocks! Its so fascinating! We then realise the VJ filming LSG is right beside him. So who's doing the filming? LSG's manager! LOL. MCM also makes his way up, and we see him chanting Baekdusan! Heaven lake! with every step. Seriously, I admire the guy. He looked dead beat from the start of the whole Baekdusan special, but somehow he managed to hang in and get to the top. You have to admire that perseverance. MCM fighting! LSGuen and EJW are not having a great time either. LOL, EJW's pants are SO SHORT! I almost mistook them for girl shorts MCM proceeds to go on fours in his effort to keep up. LSGuen: Finally the monkey features (of MCM) come out! MCM: Its easier/more comfortable to go up this way! EJW: We're not even halfway through the halfway mark yet! Let's hurry.. Zoom back into LSG. [?] What's he doing with that white tub? LSG (panting): Ah.. ah.. suncream! suncream! HAHAHAHA!! This cute boy with his whitening regime. What can I say? VJ: Rest a moment before going further. So LSG stops to give them a rest, and starts introducing the sights again. LSG: When you looks at that, it looks like the bungee jump!
Finally the guys arrive at the tunnel leading to more stairs, and their challenge officially begins. They've completed 1/20 of their journey, and whats to come next are stairs that are of maximum 70 degrees! Now THAT'S really crazy! But they have no choice, off they go. And along the way we see people sitting down at the side, further attesting to how difficult the climb is. LSG: Wow, this is really too much. Hyung! Hyung! Its more comfortable (to go) four footed! EJW: People (humans) DO NOT walk four footed! captions are funny here for kHD [What humans..] [just let me live..] He starts climbing with both hands and legs too. KHD: Its really more comfortable to go four footed! Here the VJs are obviously having the toughest time, bent 90degrees from their carrying their load of equipment at the same time. Hats off to them. Without them, there'll be no 1N2D. I really salute them for their spirit. As usual the baby boy of the group seems to have boundless energy and runs ahead of his hyungs. LSG: Yah everyone! (go on) two feet mode! (HAHAHAHAHAHA!!)

The episode is crazily long this week! But I enjoyed it. Will be coming back to buff this up as and when I'm done with some of it. Its really long, and it'll take me some time to listen and type their convos out, but I'll try my best! The music they used for this episode is really the best, nice and fitting for each scene. I even heard a few chinese orchestra pieces that I used to play (when I was still active in the orchestra in high school), which brought back really great memories. What can I say? I love the show (and our boy too, of course )
Alighting from the ferry All right, so the boys have finally reached China after a gruelling 19 hour boat trip. They arrive at the ferry terminal, and there are LOTS of Chinese fans waiting for them already (I've always been curious, how do these people know where and when to go welcome their idols?) The six guys are greeted by screams of OPPA!!~~ from the Chinese fangirls while heading off to the bus. LSG: End of disgusie, end of disguise! (er, so the hat was supposed to be a disguise? Ah, LSG you are so cute sometimes.) KHD: 1N2D!! LSGuen: (We reached) Safely! MCM: CHINA! EJW: We got off the boat!! (HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!) The boys gather in front of a map and start showing us where they are headed to. Now, they have to take the bus, through Changbaeksan maek (长白山脉) KHD: So how much time will we take? The other guys: 19 hours! KHD: How much time? The other guys: 19 hours! KHD: We're setting off today and will reach tomorrow, 19 hours. LSG: We ARE taking 19 hours right? KHD: Yes, that's it. We'll set off quickly, and get to Yongjong, where we'll do some sight seeing and spend the night there, and its then off to Baekdusan. And so they set off to Yongjong by bus.
On the bus LSG: Wah... We are REALLY on our way (to baekdusan)! (laughing) Hyung, why are you going around barefooted? Caption [Feeling as comfortable on the bus like as if it were my home] ---> LSGuen They look out of the window and start commenting about the sights. I'm not too sure, but it seems like they then started talking about how they (as south koreans) can't travel back and forth the border (to north korea) even when they are living basically in the same country, but people from other countries can just do so with a valid visa. Correct me if I'm wrong. They start feeling sad. EJW: My mom's hometown is Pyong Yang. My grandfather, during the 6.25 battle, accompanied my mom and aunt and came to Namcheok.. I think KHD asks EJW if he still has any relatives there, and EJW says he's not sure. LSG: But I think that was to be expected back then (there were many cases like that).. My grandfather's siblings are still living there (north korea?) They all look really wistful and a little sad here. I think its a feeling that we will never understand unless we've been through it, being so close to your relatives, but yet not being able to see them as you wish, with so many barriers in between. Its tragic. PD: Do you see the wire barbs? KHD: Yes, yes, we see it. PD: Its the (national) border. The guys get all amazed at the close proximity they are to the border, and LSG comments that they are just around 30-50m away from it. PD: The people you see working on the fields here, they are all North Koreans. The guys are amazed again, and comment on how close they are, within the grasp of the hand. They then see a few tradtional korean houses on the way, and some people of course. LSGuen: Yah! There's a person there! There!! SONGSAENGNIM! (meaning teacher) MCM: Ah, it'd be great if we could move slowly (so that they have more time to take in the sights) The conversation then takes a turn and they start discussing a little bit of history, which I won't go into. KHD though, said something that I thought was really nice. He commented that they wouldn't have been able to see all that they saw on the bus ride had they taken the plane, and it was really the right choice on the PD's part to make them take the ferry to China. Its true isn't it? They may have complained about the tiring journey, but I'm sure what they saw on this stretch of road, they will remember for a long time.
Amnokgang, the Yalu River KHD: Jiwon ah, we're gonna see the broken bridge! They arrive at the bridge that's broken halfway. A little info on it from wikipedia: The "Broken Bridge" was built in 1909, (but) it was bombed and partially damaged in the Korean War around 1950 and has not been reconstructed. LSG: It's intact (in good condition) MCM: Where does it end? And the captions say [they see cheonhwakhi (broken bridge) now] [the Amnokgang bridge that is broken] [their faces stiffen] [and they all can't say a word] [they get off the bus for a while] So they all get off the bus to tour the broken bridge. It was quite touching, the entire scene, I guess I don't have to explain much. KHD made all of them jump over the line, and they all started running towards the end of the bridge. LSG (exclaiming): Woah! There's Sinŭiju! MCM: That's Sinŭiju? LSG: Is it really 100m (away)? They seem to be all really affected on seeing the sights before them. Notice how parallel to the broken bridge, there's another bridge that runs intact to North Korea. That's the ONLY bridge left connecting the two countries, and is one of the few ways to enter or leave North Korea. Apparently trains run there daily. Wow, this is one big history lesson for all of us..
Back on the bus The guys are back on the bus and hungry, and so the PD passes them some Chinese stuffed pancakes. LSG: PD, thanks for the meal. LSGuen: This is the most tasteless thing I've eaten in 2008! EJW starts singing Adios, LOL! And here's the infamous smoking incident fro MCM too. Anyway, this time round, the PDs pass them chinese crullers. They're kind of like dough fritters, and are commonly eaten with soya milk as breakfast. They're neither sweet nor salty, but they're really yummy when eaten with coffee, tea or soya milk, and I eat them pretty often for breakfast (even though i live in Singapore, they can be found here too ) LSGuen: I'm not eating it.. EJW pops a piece into his mouth. EJW: I'm not eating this! HAHAHA! Guess they're just not used to the taste of it. These dough fritters have their historical background, but I'm not gonna go into it. Let's just say without anything to go with it, it CAN be pretty tasteless. This time, the PDs bring out corn, and EJW goes WAAA! Haha, they must have been real hungry. KHD (in the background): Oh man, give us rice to go with it (the corn), rice.. EJW happily digs into his piece of corn, but... EJW: How can corn be this tasteless?? Two hours on, the guys are in various states on unconsciousness on the bus. LSG has his jacket over his head (to block out the sun I guess, HAHAHA!), KHD has this unknown thing covering his face and his mouth wide open. They zoom in on EJW, who is somehow resting his head on his shoulders. Four hours on, KHD is sleeping uncomfortably. He soon wakes up at the sound of the brakes, and cleans his eyes, and glares at the cameraman. The small red captions go [What's with this camera!] [If it comes this close to film me] [my face is gonna appear REALLY BIG!] HAHAHA!! KHD: We are travelling and travelling, but we don't seem to be at the end of it.. China... Ahh.. the journey is really long.. LSG: (waking up) Where are we now? KHD: We have 20 more hours of travelling, so... just go back to sleep again! LSG starts groaning.. KHD starts examining MCM and EJW in their sleeping states. LSguen passes them a banana, which KimC stuffs into the sleeping MCM's mouth and wakes him up. The captions are funny! [What's this..] [Oh, my meal is here!]
3 verse poems The guys start playing the game to pass time, starting with a groaning KHD. KHD: Baek- we've been driving a hundred metres and the car isn't stopping, and I wish to pee so much that I'm dying. Du- We've slept for 2 hours and the car isn't stopping.. San- we're going to the mountain.. I'm not sure about the meaning of the verse LSGuen made, but I heard the last verse, his phony chinese accent and all. He was saying we're going to the mountain.. FUNNY!! It totally cracked everyone up
Dinner Seven hours on, they get off the bus and cook some ramen for dinner. KHD: IS THERE RICE? Rice! I want rice! HAHA, the big guy starts yelling out all the different kinds of rice. "Isn't there any?" NO, KHD! You are in the middle of nowhere, and so there's no rice for you, not at all! EJW: Seung Gi yah!~ LSG: Yes? EJW: Come over.. EJW walks out trying to pretend to be a monk. And he looks, the part, with his shaved head LOL. then they start play acting again, EJW and LSGuen as the monks and MCM as the monkEY. hahaha. The music they play here is kinda wrong too, haha its an orchestra piece that is usually played in celebration of a bountiful harvest (haha, I played it before!), but who cares, it suits the mood. LOL, ans MCM starts screaming, to which KimC throws him a banana. LSGuen then starts knocking at MCM like a monk would on a muyu (a type of chinese instrument that monks play) and acts like he's blessing the monkey, hahahaha!! The monkey throws the banana skin at the monk in fury The water has finally boiled, and the guys get down to eating their noodles. EJW: We'll be fine if we eat this on the way to Baekdusan... We ARE going to Baekdusan aren't we? Don't tell me we are actually at Baekdusan already and don't know it? EJW starts questioning if they are really headed to Beakdusan since the journey seems to be taking forever, with no end in sight, haha. KHD then goes in search of more food from the staff, where he is chided (seeing that the staff are actually eating the same stuff too).
Ghost stories on the bus Ok, from what I gathered, Chayouroh is a place, and the Chayouroh ghost story is pretty well known and was discussed on an episode of Sang Sang Plus before. Just google 자유로귀신 and the images will explain more than I will be able to in words here. Let's just say its a creepy girl with empty eye sockets. MCM: Who has seen the chayouroh ghost? KimC: The one with no eyes? LSG: Its the one that's quite well known.. is it real? EJW: It's a lie! I've been to and forth there for so many times at dawn and I've NEVER seen it even once!! LSG: Me too, I haven't seen it even for once. But the truth is there are people who have seen it.. You do know the Chayouroh story right? PD: Whats the Chayouroh ghost all about? LSG: You don't know? If you go to Chayouroh and look, there's this girl who wears sunglasses, and it keeps drizzling when the cars pass by. And when you stop and go near to find out why (she's standing there alone with sunglasses on), her eyes will go "BONG!"open (and all her eyes are missing)! Camera zooms into LSGuen. Migosh, his expression was scary! I think KimC starts telling another version of the story, apparently experienced first hand by his best pal Yoon Do Hyun. KimC: YDH was on his car, on his way back home, and there was absolutely nothing all around him (and he couldn't see anything since it was dark anyway) on the road. While he was all focused on the road, there was this girl who suddenly appeared from the field on the side, and then disappeared into the field again. MCM jumps out of his seat to demonstrate, which promptly elicits a small scream of terror from one of the PDs (who can't be seen onscreen) MCM: (to the PD) What's wrong with you? KimC: After a while, it came out on TV (I'm assuming he's talking about the Chayouroh ghost story being publicized). He had no idea where the place was before that, and then (when the program came out) he realised the Chayouroh place was near the place where he saw (the strange sight of the girl). PD: So she went on an excursion to Chayouroh and to Nunpadak..? [multiplayer Chayouroh ghost!] HAHAHA! The captions are SO funny! MCM: Wait a minute, so going to Chayouroh.. When MCM is speaking, KHD suddenly screams, as a prank. MCM and EJW are all shocked by his exclaimation. Meanwhile.. LSG: Ahh.. my tears are falling.. [Seung gi is.. Crying?] [Why exactly?] LSG: No, I'm not crying.. the tears are just coming out.. When you hear something scary, don't your tears fall? But the others don't care and keep talking about ghost stories. Captions [But all his hyungs continue with their ghost story telling] ---> HAHAHA! LSG:Ah.. I can't ever go to Chayouroh.. How am I even supposed to go to Ilsan? KimC: Have you heard of the SokChogondo story? LSG: What's that? I go to SokCho often.. KimC: Over there, there was some university students who went there for an outing. One of the guys realised he left his wallet in the mountains and decided to go get it back (alone). The remaining five people decided to just stick around and play. The guy who went off to get the wallet was called Seung Gi. After that, they waited for around an hour, but Seung Gi didn't come back. LSG: Oh my goodness, why are my tears falling again.. I'm going crazy.. KimC: While waiting, they notice Seung Gi standing outside the window himself. He just kept staring at his girlfriend and asking her to come over (my goodness, KimC looks SCARY here). KHD: Goodness, this is really scary.. Someone (I can't make out who says this) says: KimC makes it sound so realistic! MCM: KimC hyung is really scary.. KimC: Seung Gi was holding some newpapers in one of his hands, and with the other he kept motioning for his girlfriend to come over. His girlfriend saw him and said "Hey! There's Seung Gi!", her friends kept telling her, "He seems really strange, don't go over!" But its her boyfriend there, and no matter what the friends say, its just natural for her to go out to him. So she went out, and her boyfriend just grabs her by her hand and starts running wildly. After that, when they are a safe distance away, her boyfriend shows her the newpaper, where the headlines read "University students on holiday killed in bus accident", with the faces of their friends all there. So their friends are actually dead! [Seung Gi crying again?] Haha, everyone starts saying LSG is crying again, and he sits with his legs curled up in front of him He keeps saying he's not crying though, and the captions are really funny [The one with a weak heart - LSG] [his face is all messed up with tears!] KimC: Seung Gi is crying, oh, how, what do we do?
LSG's nightmare of the year Caption [While replacing the tapes] LSG is listening attentively to EJW, who is talking about seeing ghosts. EJW: When we see scary things, its actually our minds at work. When you look at it, if there really are ghosts... KHD decides to lay down and show his head to LSG, and scare the living daylights out of the boy. LSG: (gets a HUGE fright) AHHHHHH!!!!! Stop it, really!! Ah, really! KHD gets a kick out of it and giggles madly. KimC: Oh, he's really getting angry now. In the background, EJW (I think, not sure who it is) starts mimicking LSG, "AHHHHHH!!!!! Stop it, really!!" They all laugh at LSG, and he gets a little calmer after the shock. LSG: Tell me an interesting story! A funny one. EJW: Ah, let's just listen to ghostly ones.. KHD: (Points to the seat in front) Hey, look, there's someone in that seat. LSG: Ah, there's no one here. KHD: Look properly, there IS. LSG: Aieee, there isn't, really. KHD: But there is.. LSG: Really there isn't. There's no one there. (Asks the cameraman) There isn't anyone right? KHD still keeps insisting in the background that there IS someone in the seat. LSG: (in a really serious tone) NO!!! Captions [S.E.R.I.O.U.S] KHD: Ok ok, I get it. Don't be s serious, don't be so serious! But... KHD slyly lies down again when LSG is looking elsewhere. And when he turns around, he SCREAMS really LOUDLY (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!) The captions here are hilarious, it goes something like [Seung Gi is in a ghost house It'd be a great day for him to do bungee jumping!] KHD meanwhile, is gasping for breath laughing at LSG. KHD: Woah.. that was the BEST reaction! LSG: It's REALLY scary, if you see it (KHD's FACE) from below. PD: Please do it again for us! [S.C.A.R.Y] Next, KHD uses tissue to scare the boy. LSG: AHHH!! Ah, stop it please, really. Really, please stop it! I thought he was going to cry from all the scares, haha. Well, at least KHD did something right. LSG took off his darned hat after all that scaring While he's doing that, LSGuen lies down on the floor of the bus next to an innocent and unknowing LSG. LSG: I'm not going to Baekdusan anymore, really, I'm not going to Baekdusan anymore! KHD keeps perstering LSG from behind, and he turns to look at KHD, only to be scared by LSGuen who's lying on the ground, and he yells REALLY loudly again. LSG: AHHHHH!! REALLY, STOP IT PLEASE!!!! Captions [How many times have they done it to him, but he's scared AGAIN] They do a replay of the moment, ending with a screen shot of LSG, mouth wide open, and the caption reminds us of his striking resemblance to scream in this scene. [His shriek looks like SCREAM] LSG: Oh man, I'm really usually not so weak.. oh.. KHD: Let's turn off the lights and sleep. LSG: (settling into his seat) Oh please don't turn off the lights. KHD suddenly puts his face in front of the boy again. Of course he gets a scare, AGAIN. Hahahaha. This time he grips his head in utter despair and goes yet again, "Really, please stop it!" [he hasn't been scared slightly even once in 18 years - the hicupping LSG teacher.] --> LOL While driving.. KHD: Seung Gi yah, sing a song.. LSG: A song? (starts singing a blues version of Vacation) KHD: Close your eyes and totally drown yourself in the feel.. LSG obediently closes his eyes. KHD sticks his face in front of LSG in the meantime, ready to scare the boy again. LSG: (about to go into the chorus) 메..AHHHHH!!! LSG finally lies down from all that repeated scaring. He starts singing 그래서 어쩌라고, unplugged. (wow!)
