(the type of man that is popular changes with time) (a rich man?) (a sexy man?) (a talented man?) (a cute man?) (but the type of men popular in 2016 is) (men who do housekeeping!) (after "iris" in 2013) (he filled in his career break with housekeeping)
(prepared housekeeping man kim seungwoo) (unlike his roles as a villain in movies) (he has warm mom-like hands) (veteran housekeeping man kim jungtae) (since "two faces of my girlfriend" in 2007) (he chased after romance and settled as a housekeeper) (younger housekeeping man bong taegyu) (gulp gulp) (from comedy to eating on tv)
(he's the only one without a career gap) (sensitive housekeeping man moon seyoon) (housekeeping is for women?) (100 hours into housekeeping) (clever housekeeping man kim iljung) (o.i.t.s. - oh, is that so?) (he wants to be loved by his wife) (national team romantic) (beginner housekeeping man ha taegwon)
(the 100% real lives of housekeeping men which will) (thrill korea in 2016 will be revealed!) housekeeping men change the world. men doing housekeeping, mr. house husband! (mr. jeongreung, taegyu / mr. dalmaji, jungtae) (it sounds familiar!) he copied this. national singing competition! (we thought song hae was here)
(mr. taereung, taegwon / ms. yongsan, sonha) i'm not used to this. that's not how it's done these days. - i'm embarrassed for him. / - right? no. people like that at this hour. it was familiar, but embarrassing. wasn't it classic and nice? when you came down, it was like "the its know." (housekeeping men are gathered here)
(but you know what?) it feels great to be back at kbs after a long period of time. it's been 3 years. the first time after you ruined "win win"? (upset) what do you mean i ruined it? i did it for 3 years. you're not from this tv station. (counterattack) no.
but i'm independent now. (he's now a freelancer) are you willing to work for kbs from now on? kbs is the best tv station. (he can survive anywhere) public broadcasting kbs. (please call me) i'm originally from kbs. (kbs actress youn sonha) you want to talk about where we're from? no, it's not that.
moon seyoon... (moon seyoon feels quite uncomfortable) i'm from kbs, too. (i'm confident! i'm from kbs?) - you were on "people looking for a laugh." / - no. i was on it a little longer, but i debuted on "gag concert." (fact) he cursed kbs when i went on to sbs. (kidding) are we talking about our connections to kbs? then i have a connection to kbs, too. what connection do you have?
i was the kbs badminton commentator and i became popular on "one night, two days." you don't seem so confident yourself. you say, "oh, is that so?" often on tv, but i'm the one who started it. - oh, is that so? / - what is that? what's "o.i.t.s"? oh, it's too real. oh, is that so?
- that became popular? / - that's how i became popular. (first time hearing it) i don't think he's that popular. if you frown, you look like kim eungsoo. (they look alike) you two look so alike. he says he looks like ji jinhee. (he said so himself) he does resemble him. you look a bit like gwon haehyo.
(right, right) his chin resembles that of gwon haehyo. how long have you been married? one year and five months. you're still newlyweds. is this your first time on a variety show since marrying? yes, that's right. my wife actively persuaded me to do this program.
why? she wanted you to start earning money? (one must be realistic in life...) she wants you to work now? i did take a break after getting married. for how long? the whole time after i got married. (that's why you started doing housekeeping) he may talk like this, but he's a logical person.
when he got married, the small wedding was in the news. - it really looked nice. / - that was great. fortunately, many people said great things about our small wedding, but the truth is, my wife and i had no money, so we had no choice but to have a small wedding. it was a small wedding, like people in their 20s do? yes.
we wanted to have a wedding that we could afford. won bin and lee nayoung had a small wedding like you. they didn't have much money either. (let's just have a wedding that we can afford) i see. (what does that make me?) kim seungwoo, you were in the news fo recreating your wedding recently. that made waves.
you look so handsome. (wedding in 2005) the left picture is our wedding picture. we wore the same dress and tuxedo. (2015 wedding recreation) you wore the same clothes after 10 years? yes, we did. that means they didn't gain weight at all. you should do a recreation of your wedding, too.
we rented our dress and tuxedo, so... (well... most people do) she wore the wedding dress that han yeseul wore. she has a nice figure, too? she is as skinny as han yeseul? (she's that skinny?) i think han yeseul is a size 0 or 2. she's so skinny. i stuffed my wife into the dress. (fitted the person into the dress)
most people pose like this, but she posed like this. she folded her back. whether she's a size 8 or 10, i still love her. she looks the most beautiful whatever she wears, right? she's not the most beautiful. (let's keep things straight) why are there anchovies in front of us? i've been smelling them for a while. we make broth with anchovies, right?
anchovies have internal organs inside. we call it poop. you need to remove it before making the broth or the broth will taste bitter. to take it out, squeeze its tummy. then pull on the head. then everything comes out together. then just throw it away. so there's a certain way to do it.
have you done this at home? men actually do this? (surprised) anchovies are a must when making broth. unbelievable. what about you, seyoon? broth is needed to eat yummy food. (of course!) i've never heard your wife talk about you doing chores. you don't look like you'd do it. you like to drink. - you like to mingle with people. / - yes.
that doesn't mean i don't do housekeeping. the video is ready, right? let's take a look. that's so old-fashioned. (songdo, 12:30 p.m.) where is this place? (a peaceful market in broad daylight) (a car drives into the parking lot) (he scans the parking lot!)
(he puts his arm on the side to lure women) (perfect) you dressed like that going to the market? (what is kim seungwoo doing in a supermarket?) no way. those are my comfortable clothes. they're about to cut off your circulation. just wear a suit instead. hello.
married for 11 years, doing housekeeping for 3 years. i'm actor kim seungwoo. nice to meet you. (mr. songdo) (a charismatic top actor) (he took over dramas and entertainment programs!) (kim namjoo's man, kim seungwoo) (but he hasn't had any significant work since 2013) (and started doing housekeeping at home...) have you secured the entrance? then move.
he looks awkward. (he enters the supermarket in a serious manner) you went in looking so serious. they edited it that way. i really didn't pose or anything. you didn't come to supervise? wait. it's over there. (what's his target?)
(a shopping cart is a must in the supermarket!) (he needs a coin) (please let there be one!) i always remember after i see the cart. that i don't have any change. (clink clink) (this is why he ends up with so many coins) the rest of the coins always disappear. - right. / - they just disappear.
okay. (he has secured a cart) i'm going in. thank you. have fun shopping. (empty laugh for his fans) it's fun going to the supermarket. i go to relieve stress. i sometimes come even when i don't have things to buy. at first, i didn't come. but then i realized my life is easier
when i help out a little. how wise. (where does mr. songdo head to first?) welcome. hello. this is new. (a free sample booth) it's been a long time. (acquaintance) - i saw this in a commercial. / - did you? look. (proof that he's a regular!) she said it's been a long time.
it's important to eat free samples. do you really try free samples? (amazed) of course. the noodles aren't fried, so they are soft and not oily. (even actors eat free samples) it's spicy, but it's good. i'm sure namjoo will like it, too. these weren't fried? these are non-fried noodles.
that's why you must cook them a little longer. - i'll taste another one. / - go ahead. (slick) (second cup) it tastes nice. the soup is savory. (has he not eaten lunch yet?) at a free sample booth... you're eating a meal. you eat a lot. you're supposed to. (what? so what?)
- you'll be back, right? / - i must take one. thank you. please come again. goodbye. have fun shopping. thank you. (where does he go next?) this is new, too. i personally think... (what? instant noodles again?) instant noodles should be made into a proper dish. i change what instant noodles i have day to day.
this is the traditional one. i need this. and this. (instant noodles, instant noodles) this too. (more instant noodles) all kinds of instant noodles. you've only bought instant noodles. that's enough. rather than simply eating only noodles. flat fish cakes.
(vision blurry) i must add fish cakes in instant noodles. it's kind of sad. you can't really see well. you read things going like this. how fortunate is it that he doesn't go like this? look. he's doing it. (i can't see) he lifted up his glasses. oh no.
(haha...) these are the dumplings i ate in the army. these are the best in instant noodles. you must add many toppings in your noodles. i buy instant noodles and (his philosophy on cooking) even when i eat just instant noodles, i add toppings to make it a fancy dish. the most luxurious instant noodles are after eating ribs...
ribs? (shocked) you add ribs in instant noodles? you know how you get bones left over after eating ribs? i make broth with them. it's the best. that's instant noodles. (pretentious) doesn't your wife dislike that? she doesn't say anything about it. ms. ju doesn't say anything. ms. kim namjoo.
who's ms. ju? short for ms. kim namjoo? (ms. ju is after the lord) what about your children? (do you eat it with them?) our kids don't know that we eat instant noodles. we eat it after we put them to sleep. we drink alcohol after putting them to sleep. we do everything as parents first. i need sausage in my noodles. that's the real sausage soup.
- what product is this? / - it's good. what is this? this is high quality sausage, right? it's too expensive to put in instant noodles. you're going to put them in instant noodles? yes. (not right for his immature taste) then buy this. (what?) (what is this smell?)
(welcome) (yummy-looking mr. bacon) (just his taste) oh, bacon. bacon. you're just a regular guy in a supermarket. (he can't hear anything else) (he can't see anything else) try some bacon.
it needs to be a bit hotter. (i'm happy just looking at it) - i'll eat and go. / - please wait a moment. you must wait while it cooks. i'll wait. (in order to meet you) (i must've come to the supermarket today) (love is about endless waiting) it's an honor.
i can't believe i'm seeing you in person. (i'm glad to see you too, bacon.) when someone recognizes me when i'm about to eat a free sample, it's a bit embarrassing. i eat everything i want to. (i do) try some. it's thicker than ordinary bacon, right? (this is incredible) it's different from other bacon, right?
it's so good. it's different, right? the seasoning is different and i'm sure the texture is really nice. it's so nice. the texture is nice, too. how many pieces are you eating? most people eat one or two. thank you. even song ilkook comes with his triplets.
yes. thank you. (what? you're not buying any?) you're not buying it? that's... that's stealing. (perplexed) i can't tell how it tastes by eating just one piece. the amount you just ate is enough for a 3-person serving of army stew. you shouldn't have eaten so much. alright. alright.
(what else is there to eat?) what's this? is it okay to taste one? - it's beef. / - yes. (this time, it's beef) wow, beef. you went on the right day. it's better not to dip it in anything, right? yes. i already added salt. you're right. you salted it?
(he has rented out the space in front of the samples) this is really good. (this is enough to be his meal) it's chewy. (perfect for mr. songdo) - thank you. / - are you purchasing it? - thank you. / - you're leaving? (he's just leaving this time, too) he said thank you politely.
you didn't buy the beef after tasting it. i don't really like beef that much. i only eat just that much. (speechless) you go to the supermarket when you want to eat meat? (this man is just unbelievable) i ate just that amount, so i don't have to buy it. (then he goes to the pork section) (very serious)
(like choosing his next work...) (he tastes beef, but buys pork) you must like pork. (where is he headed next?) sure. meat is all about pork. (he stops again) hello. (side dishes) what is this? leaf mustard kimchi? - this is korean lettuce kimchi. / - oh. it is seasoned and pickled. (side dishes to finish up)
(yum yum) mm. it's good. enjoy. (i plan to) korean lettuce kimchi goes best with instant noodles. this is it, right? (it's all about instant noodles) this would go great with instant noodles, right? (he's drooling just thinking about it) it's fermented bean paste.
you sell in small packages. it's enough for one serving. i can make instant noodles with this. (eureka) - fermented bean paste noodles? / - sure. add a spoon or two of it and noodles taste great. they used to sell bean paste instant noodles. yes, yes. this is nice. (fermented bean paste noodles) this is it. do you see kim seungwoo often?
yes. two to three times a week. does he normally shop for side dishes? yes, he looks at them very thoroughly. he takes different side dishes each time. - he's a regular. / - a regular. (vvip) - you do go to the supermarket often. / - sure. i eat this whenever i come here. hello. (he's eating again?) (he ate instant noodles, bacon, beef, and side dishes)
i try to eat this every time i come. (is he grocery shopping or eating a meal?) this is a buffet, not a supermarket. so that's how much i ate. i didn't know. this is so good. (what snack does mr. songdo love?) - i'll eat one. / - okay. thank you. (bite bite) that's so good. that's not a free sample. i paid for it.
this is so good. (surprisingly has a simple appetite) (can't help but smile) does he come here often? yes, he was here yesterday, too. he had that salad bread and he must've thought of his children. he bought three hamburgers, too. no. i'm sure they were all for himself.
(songdo residents are approaching him) i'm a fan. (fan meeting at a supermarket) could you please take a picture with my baby? let's all take a picture together. one, two. (holding the salad bread in one hand) - okay. / - thank you. you are so handsome in person.
you look so happy. in this neighborhood, i'm as popular as idol singers. i'm the idol of songdo... - come on. / - songdo? (as he walks into the supermarket) (the idol of songdo's laughter echoes throughout) (it's the idol of songdo) (oh! it's the idol of songdo) (that's right. i am...)
(the idol of songdo, who never loses his smile) (what's next on his shopping list?) here they are. (dish sponges) (eyes are dim) (despite his aged eyes, he reads everything thoroughly) (he checks the resilience) this isn't it. (resolute) (find the right dish sponge for mr. songdo!)
(checking all types of dish sponges) (the one and only dish sponge that i'm looking for!) (he even reads the fine print) (he grabs everything he can) (this isn't what i want...) why are these sold out? (about to cry) that's too bad. (the saddest thing in the world) (i lost him...) (he's too serious)
wait. this seems to be a different one. (he keeps lingering) i can't get the sold out one? (are any in storage?) hello. may i help you? why are these sold out? (is he complaining to her?) they were all bought. then i have to come back later? (he's quite obsessive) what a shame. (he couldn't buy the sponge he wanted!) you seemed to be thorough in choosing a dish sponge.
there's just that one dish sponge that i like. but it isn't here today. i don't really like the one that's too stiff. i like the one that's soft. it must foam up well. to get a clean feeling, (his dishwashing philosophy) you mustn't wear rubber gloves. but my wife worries that i may get eczema. (my hands are still clean)
they're clean. i do the dishes. (he takes pride in doing the dishes) sure. you must at least clean up. also, i'm usually the one who eats a lot. i clean up what i eat. you are too gluttonous. me? (he has no intention of leaving the supermarket) (he bought instant noodles, dish sponge. what's next?)
(where is he headed?) (domestic beer, traditional liquor, international beer) (mr. alcohol) (i love it) (what liquor does he prefer?) (i love soju!) (he looks serious again!) this gives you a five-cent discount. you care about that, too?
it's better to buy the one with discounts. (not bad) it's such a waste not to buy it. they must discount the bottle price. this one... (he squats down and compares the price) what's this? (let's see...) oh, this. this is too many, even if they do give $1 discount. one box? (in agony)
you'll drink them all anyway. what's this? (he doesn't seem to) (be able to calculate the price per bottle) how many bottles are there? 30-cent discount per box. okay. (he cares about a 30-cent discount) (mr. songdo is done) i feel like the world has changed a lot.
when we were young, it was unthinkable. if any fathers went grocery shopping, it was probably to buy herbal medicine only. this is what i think. if my father and other fathers in the same generation helped out with family matters a little bit, our mothers would've aged a little slower. (housekeeping is a small concern. - kim seungwoo) - this is embarrassing. / - you are so great.
why are we applauding? it is strange. don't i deserve applause? (wasn't what i said awesome?) we mustn't be fooled. we were lured in by his last words, but all he did was buy groceries. (all instant noodles) he just left after tasting free samples. i didn't. doesn't it seem like i go there often, though?
yes, you go there often. (acknowledged!) honestly, the employees aren't actors, they wouldn't be able to talk about you that naturally. sure. "he was here yesterday, too." she sounded a bit tired of it. please stop eating. (she didn't sound excited) he's always busy eating free samples. so you bought all that at the supermarket.
what do you do with it? i eat it for dinner. after i put my children to sleep. my wife and i have our drinking time. (drinking time with ms. ju) almost every day. can we see what you make? (can we taste your cooking?) you'll prove it? i've prepared something for the first episode.
(coming up) we heard that you put weird things in noodles. (his recipe is shocking and astonishing) i will cook my own way. i won't make it salty, so don't worry. everybody loves this taste. (what is this?) our own assorted noodles. (coming up soon) moon seyoon. when you go to the supermarket you buy lots of food, right?
i don't try to save money on food. (his belief) when i buy meat... i grew up at a butcher's shop. what do you mean by that? my parents owned a butcher's shop. you're the son of a butcher? that's why you're so healthy. i'm living proof that the law of being fat if you're a butcher's son is true. i look at the color.
don't let the light fool you. (butcher's son's tip) the red light. you must block the light and look. come on, you and i both know what's best. so after buying all those groceries, (shopping cart) i don't put them away at home. what do you do? do you put away your own things? i do it myself. there is that satisfaction when i
rip open instant noodle packages and put them away. like you're placing books on a bookcase. one at a time. (being sharp) black bean noodles. - see you on the weekend. / - see you on the weekend. there's that joy of putting them away. you must clean up yourself to know where things are. but there's a reason why i can't help out. if i put them away, my wife can't find anything.
she must decide where to put what. (excuses) you can do it together. i don't look for things very often. men usually say they help out. (with housekeeping) i think they should be scolded for that. isn't that a comment to become popular with women? that's so awesome. you got married together. then you should do housekeeping together, too.
right? it's true. (what's wrong with him?) hold on. when taegyu said that, iljung's face didn't look so good. like it's the first time he's heard that. women aren't the only ones watching this program. male viewers will be uncomfortable watching this. those men should be scolded. they must be scolded.
don't make excuses. you should do it together. (he's coming out strong) you're so awesome. wait. so you thought this way before you got married? - yes, me too. / - you don't see that often. i feel the same way as bong taegyu. what's up with him? well, i... my wife's name is kim hana. (no one asked)
why would you say her name? i want her to live as kim hana instead of sihyeon's mom. then why did you marry her? you should've let her be kim hana. (arguing) does her name change by marrying me? still... (the one who started this argument...) let her live as the single kim hana then.
i didn't start this. (an apartment building in jeongreung) (a bright place with morning sunshine) this is the first time seeing your place, right? it looks like a newlyweds' place. what? you keep that on the fridge? (10 a.m.) (silent) (actor bong has just gotten up)
(madam... good morning) (how long has mr. jeongreung been doing housekeeping?) i've been married for 17 months. i've been doing housekeeping for 17 months. (indeed) i'm actor bong taegyu. (held a small wedding with photographer hasisi park) she's so pretty. we'll say that for you. (father of 11-month-old shiha)
he's so cute. shiha. - he looks just like his dad. / -what a cutie. (he checks the refrigerator first!) he's opening the fridge, so he has something to do. there's no codfish. there's no codfish? there's no chicken breast. (is it for his diet?) (why are you so busy?)
we need to feed our baby in the evening, but we have no baby food. i am planning to grind some chicken breast, beef, and fresh vegetables and freeze them so that my wife can make it later. that's my plan for now. (organic store in jeongreung) (he naturally takes the basket) vegetables first. (heading to the vegetable section)
(full of fresh organic vegetables) (he skillfully buys all the ingredients) you bought organic vegetables for your baby? (he goes to a butcher's shop) i need tenderloin for my son's baby food. is it better to buy it whole to make broth? yes, the whole meat is better for broth. then give me whole. 200g. - 200g. / - yes.
- does it have to be exactly 200g? / - yes. that's enough for 2 days worth of baby food. i heard that you must start with the lowest grade meat. no, you're supposed to stop from the top. you feed him the softest meat and when he's used to it, you work down to a lower grade meat. shouldn't you taste it before buying it? taste it? - in a butcher's shop? / - sure.
- taste it raw? / - find a different butcher shop. (mr. jeongreung has arrived with baby food ingredients) that's my grocery bag. an eco bag. the eco bag suits you. (cabbage, spinach, pumpkin, codfish) (chicken breast, beef, corn) (shall i get started?) he's boiling 3 pots at once.
i have to do everything at once. i have to make baby food and prepare other ingredients so that my wife can cook easily. you've really done housekeeping before. you do housekeeping together. (he doesn't waste time while water is boiling) (mr. jeongreung is quite busy) (in a boiling pot) (he adds spinach)
(he knows what it means to cook spinach slightly) (humming) (spinach, which will give vitamin c to shiha) (he already knows the next step) (he puts beef tenderloin in boiling water) (he has done this many times) let me boil codfish now. he's quite good, right? (he boils codfish) he's really good.
onion, spinach. i'll cook mushrooms and jujubes later. (prioritizing) oh gee. (even looks like a homemaker when taking a break) everything about him looks like a real homemaker. his actions and looks are like an old lady. he looks like an old lady right now. we've gotten pictures of him. my pictures?
yes. i've prepared them on posters. being old-fashioned is good. this poster... look. - wait. / - is that your mom? (all at the same time) - that's not your mom, is it? / - is that your mom? read the replies. shiha's mother. ms. bong.
i thought it was his mother, who dresses up well. why do you look like this? were you forced? no, i wasn't forced at all. (many tear-inducing photos) my face looks like that when i take pictures. you don't seem too happy. i am. you seem tired of babysitting. i'm very happy. i'm happy, but i am tired.
right. (codfish finishes while he took a break) (lots of protein, chicken breast, too) (he continues to boil everything) (what do i do now?) (he does the dishes) he's doing the dishes while cooking. he's a professional. (he's a cleaning robot) i can't stand having dishes piling up.
so i clean up while i cook. (chicken breast was cooking while he did the dishes) (he keeps the chicken broth) you're keeping the chicken broth. i use it later when i make the baby food that's amazing. (homemaker bong's true housekeeping begins now!) while it's boiling... (making the cubes)
- you're using two cutting boards? / - two? - you use two cutting boards? / - yes. (finally, he uses his knife) (crunch) (i won't allow distracting thoughts!) (with skillful moves) (he's conducting the cabbage) (maestro bong) (cabbage pieces are coming to life in his hands)
can't you just grind them in a grinder? my son is learning to chew now and the particles are too small in a grinder. he can't chew anything. (codfish, chicken breast, spinach are waiting) he's chopping again. what is it this time? codfish. (codfish looks like snowflakes) (like a professional)
(chicken breast to provide protein to shiha) (i will chop you up into little particles!) (wishing for his son's strength with fatherly love) (he's done chopping all four ingredients) just use a grinder. (why do everything by hand?) then all the nutrients will be destroyed. he'll order delivery baby food soon. you'll order when you have a second child. it's because he's your first child.
i think this means one or the other. you either really love your wife. or you've really done something wrong. it's one of the two. (he removes water from boiled spinach) (he's preparing the ice tray for the ingredients) (he took time to make it, but it fits in one cube) (hesitant) the colors...
the colors don't match. i don't like that. i should make this side light. i'll place beef here and give a gradation. (alright) what's that? won't you remove them anyway? you want them to match if you do it yourself. - i understand it. / - right? that satisfaction you get when you're done. it's better to look pretty when you take it out.
(is matching colors that important?) colors are very important. it's for my child, but also... she'll see how well i did. (when she opens it... tada!) if the colors match, she'll be touched that i've thought that far. she'll think i'm cute. she'll think i'm cute. (oh... i see...) my wife would think i'm cute...
you really want to be loved by your wife. won't she get sick of you? (how suffocating) she'll realize how obsessive you are. it's like a paranoia. you have the symptoms. (while cabbage, spinach, codfish chicken were chopped) (beef tenderloin was cooked just right!) (mr. jeongreung prepares a new cutting board) (he wipes his knife again)
(determined) (he begins to cut the beef) (making people drool) that was top quality meat. that's what's placed on beef stew. it's like a boiled beef dish. hold on. (what is he doing?) (what's going on here?)
(salt and pepper) pepper? is that pepper? - this looks good. / - salt and pepper. (he slices off a piece from the edge) (no way) yes, yes. it's so good. (shiha, dad ate some...) (that's hard to resist) isn't that the beef tenderloin you bought earlier?
you're eating just a little to keep it close to 200g? that too, but... it's been a while since i've had meat. (he cuts another slice) this tastes great with pepper. (another slice into his mouth) wow. (i can't stop) i don't have time, so that's how i take care of lunch.
that's so sad. (he can't stop eating) (contemplating) i can eat one more. it was so good. (secretly eaten baby food is most delicious) my baby is so valuable to me, but yummy food should go to grownups first. (how to respect the elders with food)
now you say that. sure. that's what i think. good food will always go to mom and dad first. (beef power: let's get started again) (meat effect? his knife skills have gotten better) (at the tip of maestro bong's knife) (pieces of beef are dancing) (beef will improve the artistic value of the ice tray) (after spending the entire morning chopping)
(nutritious! colorful!) isn't it beautiful? my wife complimented me. that's really something. (three hours into making baby food) wild. he's so lucky. he's really lucky. (he can't help but exclaim at)
(wild pine mushroom) (the most luxurious ingredient of baby food) (a single wild pine mushroom) this should be ripped and eaten. (the truth comes out) (he's more prudent than ever about cutting it) (sniff sniff) (great fragrance) i thought you were going to eat it.
it smelled so nice. (the pine mushroom's seductive scent) i don't think i need to use it all. (what's he up to?) go like this. (what is he going to do now?) (sesame oil?) what? (grownups should eat good food first) sesame oil. he needs to try it himself first.
(making an oil sauce) seaweed rolls... (leftover seaweed rolls that staff members ate) (his hands are moving faster to eat) look at how it rips. (gulp) (this taste is amazing!) a tiny piece of mushroom with one seaweed roll slice? you know how that feels, right?
- that's so sad. / - really. your son really must know this. you have to keep this for the future. one last strip left. (so sad) (could honey be sweeter than this?) (he still wants more) (and eats shiha's share!) (he eats it quickly to capture the fragrance) it's good. (very satisfied)
you just finished brunch, right? (time keeps ticking...) (next up are the jujubes) - they're jujubes. / - what is that? (he automatically sighs) (biggest task in making baby food) (i should work now that i've eaten) (mr. jeongreung slowly begins his task) (precision workmanship when peeling jujubes)
(concentrating) those are dried jujubes. we put them in baby food, but i have to peel off the skin. since the baby could choke on the skin. oh wow. (after he's done peeling jujubes) (after he overcomes the jujube obstacle) (hi, i'm corn)
corn. (there is no end to making baby food) no way... you're going to peel that off, too? (no way...) (he starts to grate it) (fire on the grater) (mr. jeongreung is using all his strength today) (his arm may fall off before he's done with the corn) (he becomes one with the corn)
that's not the end of it. (once he takes a breath) there's one more step. i have to strain it. (the actual game begins now!) that's terrible. really? (round 2 with corn begins) (gather all my strength into my thumb) (scowling face) (shiha, this is how hard i work to make your food)
how much do you get by doing that? take a look. (mr. jeongreung may cry if he does any more) oh no. it's so futile. (frailty of human life) that's it? that's all you get? that's all you get? you keep doing the same thing to get more. tell your son to quit eating corn.
just tell him that you're sorry. that's terrible. (we know how you feel, but...) (sun is setting) (time passes by quickly. it's 5 p.m.) let me boil the broth. (broth from cooking chicken breast) (he adds cold rice) (chicken porridge is cooking) now you're starting to cook.
(jujubes and mushroom that took all day to prepare) jujube. that's chicken porridge. (this will add more flavor...) (adding corn) corn to add more flavor. (shiha will love it, right?) babies must taste various types of food as they grow. what would a little baby know about flavor? making the corn is too tough. i didn't go that far with my child.
are you planning to open a business? bong porridge. it's bong porridge. (full of dad's love) (making baby food is complete!) (no. he needs to do the dishes to finish!) (there's no end to housekeeping) what i've realized in the past 17 months while doing housekeeping with my wife is
that the man should be the one to do it. it takes a lot of strength to do most chores. it's physically hard work. most men shouldn't think of it as helping out, they should see it as doing it together. housekeeping is hard work. (after a long day of housekeeping) (he drinks a warm cup of coffee) that's me at home.
his glasses are fogged up. that's what housewives do. oh my. (bong taegyu is truly a housekeeping man) this is just... but we're raising a baby. we keep showing how we cook. they say it's good for the baby. when we cook and sit down to eat, he looks at us. he looks at us eating.
what does an 11-month-old baby know? no, i'm not saying this because he's my son, but he's a bit smart. seriously. oh gee. every parent in korea thinks that. everybody thinks their baby is a genius at that age. i didn't say he's a genius. he's smart and his eyes sparkle. all babies' eyes sparkle.
no babies' eyes look like this. they sparkle like this. (sparkle sparkle) every baby's eyes sparkle. shiha is so pretty. since you're a woman, let me ask you this. do you prefer a man who does housekeeping well? or do you prefer a man who is talented? a man who can earn lots of money? i do earn money.
i bought those ingredients with my money. i bought organic vegetables with my money. i bought that house with my money. i didn't say you can't earn money. someone who does housekeeping well. then why say that's not talent? (this isn't fair) listen carefully. which do you prefer? i don't want a man who interferes with it too much.
isn't what he did a bit too much? you went too far. (mr. jeongreung is just a housewife) when my wife does something, i never complain. what? there was a problem in the beginning. i said a few things and i got a taste of hell. a taste of hell. (everybody understands)
you got in trouble once. that hell every man knows about? every man knows it. - it exists. / - there's fire sometimes. once you're married, it's not your house. (understands) so you were on the national team and you were also a commentator. most athletes tend to be macho. (athlete stereotype) usually, an athlete's wife takes care of him.
that's what we normally think. would you have even done a lot of housekeeping? you said you're good at it in the interview. i've restarted doing it... what do you mean? please explain so we can understand. i've been married for 10 years. if you add the previous one... do you have to add it up?
that's something we don't need to know. is it okay to announce that like this? well, since i already did... - a total of 15 years. / - total of 15 years. let's take a look at how ha taegwon does housekeeping. we have to watch. please do it for us. would you like to see me do housekeeping? (awkward) (taereung, 6 a.m.) (sun hasn't come up yet)
- it must be early in the morning. / - yes. i have a habit of waking up at 6 a.m. (quietly) (too early to be awake) you're afraid you might wake others up? (stagger) you're staggering. you're still in a daze. but you go to the kitchen first.
your hair... (who is this?) i've been doing housekeeping for 7 years. i'm a former national badminton player and a gold medalist from the 2004 athens olympics. i'm currently a kbs badminton commentator and the coach of the yonex badminton team, ha taegwon. nice to meet you. (he's the gold medalist) (that dominated the world with badminton)
(now with old-fashioned jokes) (he's getting calls from entertainment shows) (what happened to such a famous man?) what are you going to do about that hair? how do you make your hair look like that? (peek) (checking that his wife is asleep) (his butt is sticking out) my wife can't wake up early in the morning.
i make breakfast in the morning and go to work on my bicycle. then my wife and child wake up and eat. you just cook and go to work like that fairy tale wife? (are they awake?) you're really worried that you might wake them? (he washes rice first) (mixed grains, white rice) (drip)
it's too strong. (gently) (silently washing rice) is that a pressure cooker? rice tastes better when it's cooked there. you don't need too much water in a pressure cooker. (he lightly sets down the cooker) (oh no) (his wife may wake up before he's done)
that sound. (worried) you don't have to be that careful. is the stove electrocuted? why is it so loud? (mr. taereung is sensitive and shy, not macho) (tada! mr. taereung's refrigerator is revealed!) (mackerel, vegetables, dried fish, and more) (what's for breakfast?) (abalone, pork, mackerel) broth...
you're making broth in the morning? shrimp. that adds a sweet taste. (he knows how to make broth) (what is he cooking for breakfast?) my wife loves kimchi stew. (mr. taereung) i always use shrimp and anchovies for the broth. msg, sugar, and salt... (you use them?) i don't use them at all.
for our family's health. i don't use those three at all. you don't add salt or sugar? food tastes good even without them. (barley tea to warm their bodies up) (rattle) it's a noisy. (disturbing the quiet morning) (even the rice cooker is making noise!)
(he's worried that his wife might wake up) (loud noise waking up everyone) that's a really annoying noise. his place is the only one with the light on. at that hour. (this is a morning alarm) (sweating) (will you please be quiet?) (he finally gets started on the main ingredients)
(abalone for breakfast) you're eating abalone for breakfast? octopus? (washing it well) (making kimchi soup) (using scissors is manly) (a fistful of pork!) (is the amount of meat the amount he loves his wife?) (looks good)
why did you put meat in a big piece? it's unfrozen pork belly. you're putting the pork in whole. you're putting in a whole octopus? (octopus in kimchi soup?) today's breakfast is stamina food. food with meat and seafood for more strength, (kimchi soup featuring taegwon's love) (what's next?)
(mackerel) (sizzle) (oh my) a national team athlete... you're so agile that you dodged popping oil. (that's hot...) (is the kimchi soup coming along well?) (beware of drooling) (he's busy making many dishes at once)
(he flips over the fish and it shyly shows its meat) you cooked it well. (fantastic color) you've grilled it perfectly. (he purses his lips when he concentrates) (he's more attractive because he isn't amazing at it) (chopping vegetables) (i'm fish sauce) (i don't add artificial seasoning to my food) you use fish sauce as seasoning.
(grilled mackerel is complete!) i tried it once and it was good. sand eel sauce is good, too. (there's more to do?) (tap tap) (fried egg is the best for breakfast!) (disappointing... the yolk burst) (he looks more awkward because he's so tall) (powerfully flips it over like he smashes in badminton)
(an hour and a half later) you've been cooking for an hour and a half, since 6. (pshhhh) (peeking) you're too worried. you really worry about waking them up. i can't help but be careful ever since i turned 40. it's cooked well. (satisfied)
the grilled fish looks good. (mackerel is a success) (is the rice cooked well?) it is cooked well. he must've done a good job with the rice. you look really happy. (he can cook rice in a pressure cooker) (this is for his wife?) it's for everyone to share, right? it looks good.
(looking good) (he's setting a table mat, too?) (so much detail put into it in this house) (breakfast for his wife and daughter) (full of love) (why is he sitting at the table?) - that was for you? / - it's yours? - it was your own breakfast? / - it's breakfast. doesn't everyone eat like that?
(he's eating a lot of his own cooking) (new competitive eater) (are you watching, moon seyoon?) you're really enjoying your meal. you have to eat with your mouth full. that's a man who knows how to eat. a good start to the day. it isn't easy to eat like that at 7 in the morning. (he eats everything without any leftovers)
do you always eat your rice in that bowl? it's unique. - you always eat in that stainless bowl? / - yes. what is that? isn't that for soup? it's for soup. i eat a lot and that bowl cools food down faster. i can eat more and faster. (habit he had as an athlete) eat more and faster. (that was all for himself?) (clean)
i need to eat and survive, too. i have to get to work early, but my wife doesn't make breakfast for me. so i eat by myself, and make breakfast for my wife. i'm a little less touched now. it was so touching at first. (i have to eat too) - it was all for your own good. / - yes. (preparing breakfast for his wife and daughter) he's preparing their breakfast. (although he ate first)
do you always do this? that's touching. (it's like a gift for his family) for your wife and daughter. he even put separate side dishes for the two. it's very different from when he ate his breakfast. (tada) of course they love it. i made it for them. i spent an hour making breakfast. i did the best i could.
i think they eat it all because i made it with love. (the sun came up a while ago) let's get going now. (he is off for a refreshing ride with a full stomach) (my wife will be happy this morning too, right?) hello. (housekeeping is about feeling refreshed) oh my god. this is... i would eat simply if it were only for me.
but since it's for all of us... you ate quite fancy for yourself, too. that was eating simple? do you eat breakfast every day? (mr. jeongreung) not every day. we eat breakfast as simple as we can. we simply eat toast or coffee or salad. toast or coffee isn't a meal. could you please answer my question? (can't understand)
what are toast and coffee then? they are just toast and coffee. (literally) peoplehere are asking what toast and coffee are. they are not a meal. they are just toast and coffee. sonha, isn't that good enough to be a special event? my husband has never prepared breakfast for me. if he did, i'd be touched. you'd be touched.
i would be touched. (are you watching, honey?) please listen to what she's saying. have any of you done an event for your wives? well, i... (mr. yeongchang has done an event?) - an event? / - an event? i always do something special for christmas. how? i specially cook on that occasion. i make steak and pasta.
when i cook, my wife loves it. so you basically do it once a year? one day of cooking lasts a year. we've prepared pictures of kim iljung's cooking. this time, it's not a poster. let's take a look. look. you see that pasta? (bragging) isn't that store-bought? that salad. isn't that from a supermarket? bingo.
(he doesn't know the meaning of "cooking") you didn't cook anything. i really did grill that steak. (he only grilled steak) that's about it? is there anything else you do? regarding housekeeping? when she was pregnant. that's when they need help. of course. it's very important. when she has morning sickness, she craves certain food. i am grateful that my wife
wanted something that was in season. (you are quite fortunate) being nice when she's pregnant lasts long. isn't being nice when she's pregnant a given? stop now. that's enough. i don't understand. that's what i've been wanting to say. i heard that a lot from people around me that i have to be nice to my wife when she's pregnant.
i was a bit busy when she had our first child. i had to go overseas for shoots. i was never there for her except at childbirth. so when she was pregnant with our second child, i stopped working. i said no to any requests. i was with her until she gave birth. after being next to her for a year, the world changed and i had no place to work.
when i said i'd be back when my children grew up i thought there would be a place to go back to. people welcoming you. my wife and i didn't work for aroudn two years. no one wanted me anymore. that's ridiculous. it's true. we even considered this. our faces are known here
so we can't do anything else. maybe we should emigrate for the children. - you considered that? / - yes. you're not talking about beverly hills, are you? probably. of course. (was i too sharp?) women usually become weak after giving birth. right? - some suffer from postpartum depression. / - true. that's when husbands must treat their wives well.
women are very sensitive during that period. that's when my wife did "queen of housewives" and i starred in "iris." (2009) since then, we've been doing alright. i came this far thanks to my wife. you supported each other? - i know how he feels. / - really? when my wife was pregnant, i decided to work after she had the baby.
so i called my manager after she gave birth. i told him i'm willing to start working again. he told me to wait a bit. a month later, he told me to wait again. so here i am. (a month became a year and 5 months) (mr. jeongreung should do his best here) (neat kitchen appliances) (and a modern-looking kitchen) (mr. songdo is wearing a red apron)
i feel awkward. - here's my assistant. / - i'm the cameraman. he's the cameraman and my assistant. it seems like "in depth 60 minutes." i heard that you put strange things in instant noodles. (this is so funny!) what do you put in noodles? (please disguise my voice) you have to disguise my voice. i told you before. (what odd things will he put in?)
i turn instant noodles into a real meal. i need to make broth. i can't use plain water. i don't think i eat premade food. these are frozen dumplings. this is what we must do. you said you're making broth. remove the stuffing. rip it. (broth made of dumplings) just the stuffing. just add the stuffing.
but you can't throw away the skin. put it in as if it's hand-pulled dough soup. you're making hand-pulled dough soup out of it. what's that? how can you say that about my novel food? wait. did you... i washed my hands. of course. i'm eating it, too. (i know how to be sanitary) your hands are so tanned they looked dirty.
you have such dark hands. did you stir-fry your hands? why are they so dark? why are your hands so dark? seriously. what are you talking about? (doubt and distrust rising) that's so immature. what is that? (fermented soybean paste) this is what i bought yesterday. - at the supermarket. / - fermented soybean paste.
i will make instant noodles with this. (i can't believe this is for real) this is absurd. (people are losing their smiles) just try it. please don't put it in. wait. this is my recipe. i do like fermented soybean paste, but... i can't believe you're putting it in noodles. i must do this to add less seasoning.
this isn't the end. this is not instant food. i don't eat instant food. i hate instant food. but this is instant food. (this is contradictory) making broth is the most important part. my wife made these. (these will complete the dish) - for real? / - for real. - incredible. / - your wife made them? - yes. / - beef in soy sauce.
- make broth. / - just have a taste only. - they're good, right? / - not salty. don't eat too much. i need them for the noodles. of course. just have a taste. there's nothing wrong with adding these. this will give flavor to the broth, since it's salty. don't make those faces. this is good. bean sprouts won't taste bad in the noodles. - this is absurd. / - it's good.
you must add bean sprouts in instant noodles. well, since it's soup, it's okay. this is not cuisine. it's just mixed instant noodles. i think the noodles are just extra. i think he's just going to use noodles as a topping. we just need to wait for the broth to boil. i told you earlier. (worried about the taste?) people usually think sugar is bad for you.
that's why... (there's something else) this isn't sugar. (sweet red bean bun) that's absurd. (why are you doing this to us?) - don't do this. / - i'm sure it has sugar in it. - so... / - give me that. instead of adding sugar, (#sweetredbeanbunsacrifice) it'll feel less like a crime and hurt less. it'll seem healthier for you.
(the biggest crisis in his eating life) i can't believe i'm eating this today. (this...) no... you can't. (the horror!) (the assistant is freaked out) he really put it in. (he already rolled the dice) (in despair) (they just hope it tastes good)
wait a minute. this is soybean paste and a sweet red bean bun. - can you imagine this? / - no, i can't. you're eating soybean paste with a sweet red bean bun. listen to me. i know you are grossed out by the look of it. what is bread made out of? flour. what about instant noodles? flour.
they're the same. he's strangely persuasive. it's okay to mix them together. it's alright. this is the best broth i've made recently. (this will be his life's best work) you can look forward to it. - now the noodles go in. / - finally. i must put two bags of vegetables in. but just add one seasoning pouch.
because we have the broth. while the noodles are being cooked, mr. bong taegyu. since you make such good baby food, do you have your own style when making instant noodles? you know the black bean noodles? i don't pour out water. that's right. just boil a little bit of water to begin with and just pour in the packets and mix.
that's similar to my recipe. how are they similar? for black bean noodles... this is the second time we've met, but please don't try to tie us together. don't get mad when you try my food. (just you wait!) don't get mad because you've tasted something so great. let me get this straight. this isn't just made for us. this is something you and ms. ju enjoy eating at home?
what does she think of this recipe? she just faints. blah! (like this?) (haha oh gee) (reviewing mr. songdo's recipe) i think that's too little for two bags of noodles. don't doubt me. look at how he cut them slanted.
rip them open. - just the stuffing. / - add the stuffing. you must add this. rich fermented soybean paste. you can use soybean paste mixed with red pepper paste or just regular fermented soybean paste. add half of it. (the noodles are finally ready) doesn't it look amazing? kim seungwoo and kim namjoo's late-night snack.
look at the red bean paste. (traces of sweet red bean everywhere) it's like a topping. you each need some of the broth. (we'll really try it) we heard that you put odd things in instant noodles. (how does the instant noodles that) (absorbed all kinds of strange things taste?) (how will it taste?) - taste some, iljung. / - i'm curious about the taste.
i'm really curious, too. i only put in things that taste good. there's no way for it to taste horrible. the tastes really blend in well. right? (what's this?) see? that's the feeling. (the feeling that they've found a hidden taste) (he's pretty cool...) this is interesting. this is fun. it's good.
doesn't it taste alright? moon seyoon. (what does mr. kimpo think?) it hurts my ego to say this, but it's good. it really hurts my ego. (even if it hurts my ego) (i won't miss even the last strand of noodles) i told you it's good. isn't it pretty good? (silence) i guess he loves it. (silent)
you said you wouldn't eat. (i can't hear. i'm eating) (the taste makes me eat lots and lots) (oh god, are these really instant noodles?) jungtae asked for more. (many orders, almost sold out) the problem was watching you make it. but i forgot the whole thing when i tasted it. that's good. i think showing the recipe is a minus. the way it tastes in my mouth. (it's thick and smooth)
everything got mixed together and made the soup thick. i think it's perfect to eat with alcohol. what's the name of these noodles? her and my mixed noodles. (how romantic) our own mixed noodles. (whispers of love with her and my mixed noodles) (stronger, more shocking) (tougher housekeeping men are coming)
(tough hand movements) (30 years of housekeeping) (professional homemaker kim jungtae) (i'm so busy) (the expert of recycling) (excellent housekeeping man moon seyoon) (a typical korean husband) (beginner housekeeping man kim iljung) the way they edited makes me look bad.
(and) (that's not all) (the main host of mr. house husband) (revealing kim seungwoo's home) i recycle better than you think. i clean up very well. i will show the viewers how i do the dishes. (stronger housekeeping men are coming next week) ("holla" by the eastlight)
