our housekeeping skills are great... but the presiding skills are old-fashioned. housekeeping men change the world. men doing housekeeping. mr. house husband. nice to see you again. we yelled it out with you. (we did you a favor) are we going to proceed like this now? excuse me. who are you, and why are you sitting here?
i'm a man here to do housekeeping. (stammering) (he's nervous) (relax) i'm actor lee chulmin, who plays a villain. i starred in "imjin war 1592." let's go get their general. (he was the first to attack the enemies in battle) (played charismatic captain lee ginam) let's go! (do housekeeping)
i've finally become the national commander. please remember that. (he said it himself...) anyone who sits here brags about themselves. that's a dangerous spot. (anyone in that seat is quite risky) when i first got the script, this was my seat. i thought i was one of the regular hosts. my script said my seat was kim seungwoo's. they do that for everyone. to make you happy.
i think the one i can easily beat is kim iljung. (kim iljung) - that's correct. / - listen to me. he doesn't do any housekeeping, from what i've seen. anyone who doesn't keep house shouldn't be here. that's a blue ocean. the program is called "mr. house husband," but what fun is it if everyone keeps house well?
that's why you have to leave. a man who can't do housekeeping shouldn't be here. (lazy iljung is dizzy) he's determined to drive me out. (boo hoo) what's this? (today's chore?) 6-piece garlic cloves. we're supposed to peel garlic today? - go ahead. / - you, too. well, this...
it doesn't look like you've done this before. if you grab it there, this is your first time. you've never peeled garlic before. he was about to pop it like a firecracker. one, two, three. (a garlic firecracker with a pungent smell) i learned about an amazing way to do it. (mr. kimpo) but i haven't tried it, either. (half doubtful) put garlic in a big bowl. (what you need: big bowl)
just put it in a bowl and shake. no way. (it's that easy?) try it. i doubt that'll work. just cover the bowl. you put in a whole garlic clove? yes. it'll be peeled automatically. what if it doesn't work? you're going to take flowers out of the bowl? i didn't do anything wrong.
if the garlic got peeled like this, it'd be awesome. just shake it. have fun. unbelievable. shake. (just shake) i can smell the garlic. really. (peel garlic and work out at the same time!) if it really worked, it'd be awesome.
(for some reason, it's nerve-wracking) (a success?) really? it worked? - no way. / - really? - i'll shake a little bit more. / - what? (how much does he need to shake it?) i would use that time to peel it myself. (simple. all he did was shake the bowl!) if it really worked, it would be so awesome.
no way. really. really? oh, my. (high expectations) let me see. show us. (adding iljung's nose oil) you're doing magic? (abracadabra) it's perfect. wow. (even an expert housekeeper is amazed) (it really works) - the garlic got peeled. / - all of it.
(hard to believe) - it got peeled. / - it's amazing. (mr. songdo tries it, too!) (shake it, shake it) it's done when you can smell the garlic. (sniff sniff) can you smell it? my nose is stuffed. (he peels garlic powerfully! power housekeeping man) i think it's working. wow. unbelievable.
no way. how could this be? i'll last a few more weeks in this seat. (confident) (that one tip has secured his spot on the show?) - good job. / - good job. if you have any tips, let us know, too. yes. let's all survive together. (i want one, too) give me one, too. he studied it himself. (mr. kimpo found the tip) i found it myself. (really?)
go look for tips yourself. stop relying on the production team. how will you survive in this tough world? work hard yourself. (lazy iljung is speechless) you should ask them to feed you, too. feed me. feed me. (i'll find one myself!) it's time to watch my video. but i'm very worried. i saw you hold knives in movies. (you do housekeeping?)
but i can't imagine you doing housekeeping at all. he's very determined to do this because he prepared a special video this time. (what is it?) it's not that special. for real. my home is revealed in my video. we just moved in, so it's not organized yet. isn't it your first time showing your home on tv? yes.
(coming up, in desolate songdo...) (actor kim seungwoo's battle for his honor begins) (we'll offer a peek at the battlefield) (coming soon, so stay tuned) but did you get your wife's permission to reveal your home? (expected to say "i got permission" or "it's a secret") why would i need her permission? it's my house. (how will he face his wife later?)
you're so awesome. but if i think about it, (let's talk when you're home) your wife earned a lot more. (mr. hyehwa has doubts) i'm guessing the house might be in his wife's name. please don't say that. (let's not talk about this now) you're wearing casual clothes right now. are you wearing a suit when you're at home? no, no. a dressing gown. ("elegant, sophisticated") holding a wine glass. (care for some wine?)
please don't expect that. i'll show you our house. (first of all...) i'm so curious. (yonghyun market, incheon) a traditional market. i went to buy groceries at a traditional market. did you acquire a market? (a traditional market) (at a high-energy traditional market)
(mr. songdo weakly walks in) you look more comfortable. (a white shirt again?) you look dressed up again. (supermarket look vs. traditional market look) i want to cook for my daughter's birthday. (proud) that's so cool. (what will you cook today?) japchae, glass noodles, are perfect for birthdays. yes. japchae.
and seaweed soup is a must on a birthday. and fish pancakes. also, my daughter likes noodles more than rice. so i'll make noodle soup. aren't those all difficult? (for beginner mr. songdo) japchae and fish pancakes? they take a lot of work. (he should just cook ramen) i can do that much... but the menu is suitable for a 70th birthday party.
(oh, my...) (can i cook them all?) (he starts to buy groceries!) (what grabs his attention?) (you're just going to pass by?) are these samples? yes, they are. try some. these are all samples for you to taste. - are these stuffed half-moon rice cakes? / - yes.
(he grabs one more without hesitation!) you're... i haven't had breakfast. (making excuses) go ahead. that's just gluttony. you should buy something then. (have you forgotten already?) (mr. songdo's eat and run instinct?) goodbye. (what? you're not buying?)
(he feels bad for going, so he starts a conversation) (then he sees something) wow, those are pretty. (hot bar rice cakes) you want to order rice cakes? hot rice cakes are really good. they look so good. (colorful bar rice cakes) - may i try one? / - yes. (his hand is reaching out to eat) - you gave me so much. / - go ahead and enjoy.
it's warm. (gobble gobble) it looks like ham and an omelet. you look like you're there to eat. aren't you eating too much? (how much is he tasting?) why don't you just take a seat then? (eating with his right hand) (eating with his left hand) (holding rice cakes in both hands like a kid)
they smell so good. (satisfied) i can smell mugwort. (how many is he tasting?) you're holding so many. i tasted every color. (i love free samples) you're holding a handful of rice cakes. how do i make tadpole rice cakes? tadpole rice cakes?
(cute tadpole rice cakes) i'll show you. how do you do it? i'll tell you how. (why tadpole rice cakes?) that's how they make tadpole rice cakes. (all you need is a chopstick) using a chopstick. (softly roll the center) that's how you make it. ah... so that's how you make them. like this.
i didn't know. it's my daughter's birthday. (hahahaha) she likes rice cakes, so i'll put these in soup. these are pretty. you plan to put them in seaweed soup? (kim seungwoo has a great idea) how long do i wait? i just need to wrap them. i'll be back later.
okay. i'll have them wrapped. what? you're leaving without buying again? i made an order. (i bought rice cakes) - you really did? / - sure. (he's an eat-and-run guy) (mr. songdo sees) (fresh seasonal fruit) (welcome, mr. songdo) $3 for 20 tangerines? what? must i buy all 20?
are you trying to bargain? he's trying to get discounts. i'll go to a market soon. (mr. songdo's promise) i'll show you how bargaining is done. what? must i buy all 20? (how well can he bargain?) you're more handsome in person. really? (his first attempt fails due to her compliment) i can't buy just 10, can i?
(his second attempt to bargain) (you know very well you can't...) he tries, but she won't answer. (she is unflappable) i'll buy 20 then. (he fails a second time!) - thank you. / - thank you. i can't bargain, either. right? i can't ask for discounts.
traditional markets aren't doing so well. so i couldn't ask for any discounts. that's right. it's not good to ask for discounts. we must save the market economy. (now a campaign) don't ask for discounts, and pay cash. right. kim seungwoo. give us your autograph. (the idol of songdo is at a traditional market) you're so handsome. you're so handsome.
you're so handsome. you're so popular. he's a crown prince among older women. (still popular) (there's that laugh again) (an empty laugh for his fans) you must love that they recognize you. you keep laughing when you hear that comment. "you're so handsome." i'm almost...
god seungwoo. he's saying that about himself. (oh my god seungwoo) shouldn't we say that about you instead? (so pitiful) - you'll know it's good when you taste it. / - yes. (she recommends he taste it first) have to taste it. is it okay to eat it raw? it's good. it's good even when eaten raw. (satisfied) give me seaweed and kelp, please. (he buys them!)
give me glass noodles, too. (at lightning speed) thank you. i hope you sell a lot. (he has a lot to carry already!) you're buying the right ingredients, though. sure. i have to cook. these are codfish pancakes? (looking good) i mean, frozen pollack, right? i need to make this at home. (for my girl's birthday) i'd like to make her some.
what does that laugh mean? can you please mute it? (it's aggravating to hear) he's laughing because he feels awkward. try mimicking him. can i have another one? it's funny because he can be proud trying samples. he keeps making excuses. "it's my girl's birthday." he's always giving excuses. "i didn't eat breakfast this morning."
did anyone ask him? he feels guilty. (he must try free samples) (this is the taste) may i try another one, please? thank you. (he eats and leaves again) you eat so much. even i can't ask to eat another one. i have so much to carry.
(right then) is it your first time at a traditional market? that cart. it's a must when you're buying groceries. (market cart) ma'am, where did you get this? (you didn't get it in advance?) they sell them over there. here? over here? a red one.
there they are. these are a must nowadays. (chic black or sexy red?) i'll buy one of these. (god seungwoo chooses sexy red) you must like red. i thought you'd choose black. red is what people prefer when they get older. as people age, they like red more. i've always liked red.
with your jacket and cart, you're the korean flag. (korean flag god seungwoo) (putting his things in) is this cart for carrying things you buy? it's a market cart. (it fits everything inside) pull the strap like this. okay. thank you. thank you. goodbye. god seungwoo is pulling a market cart around.
(yes! i got a great item!) (pulling a market cart) he's like santa claus. (finishing touch on his market fashion) (edgy model walking) must you walk like that? (the market is the runway!) (old man style) look at his pose... (hahahaha) why am i always eating in my video?
he's just like a neighbor. (not really god seungwoo) ma'am. i think i bought too much. (with a cart full of food) did it come out well? (back to the rice cake store) how will you take this heavy box home? i have no choice. it's really heavy. (heavy) (done buying groceries!) i feel great about this. i've prepared a lot with love. i'll start cooking like i'm going into a battle.
you can look forward to it. (look forward to a homemade meal) now is the problem. everyone was nice at the market. (did you hire them?) did you hire them in advance? i went the day before and asked them. "i'll be back tomorrow, so please welcome me." "act like you recognize me." i heard they had dinner together yesterday. i can relate to that.
i'm from manguri. mur. manguri. there's a traditional market there. i lived there since i was a kid, (urim market) so everyone is my mom's friend, mom's sister, etc. they welcome me in and don't just give me a bite to eat. they give me an armful of food. i just keep eating at the market. "you've grown so much. here." and they give me food.
i could relate to that. from one end to another, i just keep eating. after that, i weighed 120kg. (that's why i'm so big) manguri market raised you. mur. manguri. that's not the point. i don't want to compete. (his video comes after mine) but my wife will be on tv for the first time today.
- hasisi? / - for the first time. bong taegyu is guaranteed a year on this show. (thanks, honey) (how mr. jungreung spends a special autumn day) (what will i do today with my eco bag?) - he's contemplating. / - isn't that an act? but he looks good. he's doing that because he has nowhere to go. (he's decided. where is he headed?)
why did you contemplate for so long? isn't that a butcher's shop? (a familiar place) you were there last time. he was there last time. (why is he there this time?) their meat is good. - do you have beef bone? / - beef bone? (determined) beef bone. (even expert housewives think it's hard) it's not easy. (can he do it?) my wife and i have lost so much weight these days.
and our son is getting heavier as he grows. so i'm going to make beef bone soup. you need it more than your wife. (he looks weak) do i need more than 1kg? you need at least a 2kg bone. this is about 2kg. this is 3kg. (which one will he choose?) (considering how much he has, he gets a 2kg bone)
what about the meat in the soup? (he's a true pro) you can choose brisket or shank. what about the price? brisket is a bit more expensive. how much more? $5.20 versus $6.50. per 100g? if you won't make a lot, brisket's better than shank. brisket tastes better, right?
- yes. / - yes. brisket, please. (i can earn $1.30) would you like to buy 600g? half? ($35.20 for 600g) it's not as much as i expected. you look too serious. (how many grams of beef will you buy?) 300 grams, please.
you'll just add brisket fragrance to your soup. i'm not in charge of family finances. (boo hoo) so i contemplate a lot when i spend money. giving extra bones means he's a regular there. do you go there often? yes. (will taegyu be the best housekeeping man today?) you impressed us with bong porridge last week, and now you'll make bong soup? (raising expectations) (here's the beef bone)
(we will bury our bones here, mr. jungreung) (miscellaneous bones join as well) (you're not removing the blood first?) i learned it from my mother. (his mother's recipe) put the bones in the pot. then you boil for about 20 minutes. blood and other substances come out. (special tip) won't it smell? (worrying about the smell) no. you throw away the first round of water.
won't the nutrients all come out, too? that's why you boil it for a short amount of time. you need soybean paste if it's pork. (mr. busan's tip) you've cooked before. (shrug shrug) true, you've rested for a long time. (housekeeping and career gap go hand in hand) (i won't leave a drop of blood in the meat) - what are you doing? / - what's the thread for? (thread?)
(what is it for?) you're going to use that, too? my mom does it that way. - isn't it usually for chicken soup? / - no. my mom shapes the meat with cotton thread. you tie up the bump part of the meat in order to shape it. then you can boil it in a pretty shape. i'm amazed.
it has to be cotton thread. (no haphazard job here) they're sold in hanbok places. (are the bones being boiled well?) (everything is going smoothly) you're throwing it away? this is the first round. i must throw it away. (first round with foreign substances is thrown out) you may think it's a waste, seyoon. (shrewd) a little. i try to save food as much as possible.
you may think it's easy to make beef bone soup, but it takes a lot of work. you must keep watch. you're cleaning the bones? (clean to the bones) yes, they must be cleaned. (mr. jungreung's recipe: pour water in pot with bones) (add garlic, green onions, and alcohol to remove odor) (boil 5 to 6 hours, and beef bone broth is ready) (what is mr. jungreung up to now?) (boiling meat separately)
why did you contemplate so long which meat to buy? brisket and shank aren't that different, but they differ a lot in price. (must be frugal) but once you boil the meat, the textures are almost the same. but i think long and hard when it comes to our food. like i said, i'm not in charge of family finances. my wife is. does your wife get a text when you use the card?
- yes. / - really? - me, too. / - really? my allowance is $300. no emergency fund, either? $300 includes my phone bill. (so stingy) - $300 includes your phone bill? / - really? do you know why this program is important? there's one account that i'm free to use. rerun payments. (payments for reruns!)
you shouldn't say that on tv. you're killing us all if you talk about that. (was i not supposed to mention that?) please edit this out. (pleading) seriously. i've been hiding it for 20 years. how can you talk about that? my wife doesn't know about the rerun payments. you're a troublemaker. he's a homewrecker. (kidding)
i get $300 a month. (they'll edit it for me) (it's too late) - you've been married a while. / - yes. (18 years) how much allowance do you get? i don't get an allowance. (it's not a monthly payment) is it by percentage? it's 9:1. my wife gets 90%, and i get 10%. if you earn 10 cents, you give 9 cents? (nothing left)
and rerun payments? (that he's hidden for 25 years) i get rerun payments? (never heard of that) so this is how men are. (not all men) i really love beef bone soup. (changing the subject) but i haven't had it in 18 years of marriage. - why not? / - my wife won't make it for me. so i told her that i wanted some beef bone soup. now that it's winter, i'm feeling really cold. i feel like i have holes in my body.
i'm cold down to my bones. so i asked her to make some for me. she said we don't have a pot. (mr. hyehwa's wife) we don't have a big pot to make beef bone soup. then you should buy one. buy it with the rerun payments you got. i do go running. i have no idea what you're talking about. rerun payments. spend that. (must i repeat it?)
there are payments like that? announcers must have that. announcers are very lucky. we can't conclude anything here. what is important is what's yet to come. let's go back to the main host's place. wait. this is a conspiracy by the production team. why must i go after bong taegyu? (i want to cry) it's such a major difference (big comparison)
we've watched a touching story. it's time for fun. let's watch the clumsy one now. i'll keep my eyes closed. please show it. play the clip. (never revealed before) (now on tv for the first time) here it comes. on tv for the first time. i'm so excited.
(revealing mr. songdo's home) that's where you live. oh, dear! i saw that building in songdo. (kim seungwoo and kim namjoo's home) the first time it's been on tv. (where they live happily with their children) songdo. don't make a big deal out of nothing. (embarrassed) (a place with warm sunlight and a great view)
(and a classic kitchen) the kitchen is really classic. it's nice and classic. (birthday = seaweed soup) (first task: seaweed soup) (beginner housekeeping man, mr. songdo) (takes a long time to find utensils) it's because you just moved there, right? you usually know where things are, right? it looks a bit empty since you just moved in.
we just moved in, so we aren't organized. you didn't film in a nearby model house, did you? it really is your house, right? right. right. (a fistful of seaweed) (do i need more? another fistful!) (pressing) (while seaweed is being soaked) (he attempts to make tadpole rice cakes!)
you're making your own tadpole rice cakes? right. it's more about my love than skill. right. that's more important. yes, it's important. (dad's love is prepared, too!) i learned it earlier. you're making them with bar rice cakes. oh, my. (smile) (colorful rice cakes and tanned hands) why are you cutting it?
that's not a tadpole rice cake. isn't that just a short bar rice cake? isn't that chopstick too thin? you're supposed to make it into a snowman shape. press the center softly, and it becomes a snowman. (he learned at the market) (the rice cake store owner told me...) press the center softly. (controlling his strength is the key!)
this is amazing. (mr. songdo's first tadpole rice cake) (he's become confident) it's more meaningful that i'm making them myself. sure. it's the thought that counts. (only i do this) sure. that's what matters most. that's right. they are so pretty. (proud!) they'll look so pretty in the seaweed soup.
i'm done. (tri-colored tadpole rice cakes are ready) that's enough. they're so pretty. (seaweed that's been soaking) (he's supposed to wash the seaweed well) (but he uses just one hand) aren't you supposed to wash it thoroughly? that's what i heard. i don't think it soaked enough. (squeezing out water)
(squeeze) (straight into the pot!) straight into the pot? (beginner cook doesn't preheat) right away? (he should've put the oil in first) (stirring) (seaweed hasn't been cooked well enough yet) what? (he adds meat right away) (no seasoning or removing blood!)
(one big lump...) you got it wrong. you should cook the beef first and then the seaweed. - is that so? / - sure. you're supposed to remove blood first, too. (he pours in water now) (the meat is still pink...) (so far, so good) (he adds tadpole rice cakes)
(he puts in soy sauce when it boils) (what soy sauce did he put in?) that was brewed soy sauce. (he doesn't know anything) that wasn't korean-style soy sauce? it wasn't? (he still doesn't know the difference!) it tasted okay. seaweed is what matters most on birthdays. it's enough.
are soy sauces different? (aren't they all the same?) there are so many types. (hard for beginners) korean-style soy sauce, brewed soy sauce, japanese... korean-style soy sauce makes soup clear. (for soup) my soup wasn't the typical seaweed soup color. (will his soup be okay?) you must've written down the recipe. i wrote it down the day before. (he looked up the recipe on his own) i asked around.
- i looked it up on the internet. / - really? (second task: japchae) what? that's not what you made? you looked at it? that's how i wanted to make it. (that was my wish) - you scared me. / - i thought you made that. (after taking out glass noodles) (oh, no!) (he puts the noodles in the pot right away?)
there are so many problems. (i'm not ramen!) you should soak them first. you're supposed to make them soft, then cook them. you just put them in boiling water. you just started cooking the noodles. (he's done boiling the noodles in three minutes) i've had noodles cooked that way. (doubtful) they tasted fine then. what do you normally eat?
it tasted fine. you said you looked up recipes online. (doubtful) you didn't know you should soak them first? i guess the blogger didn't soak the noodles. (no way) or maybe it's this. it's common sense, so she didn't include it. the blogger thought everyone knew. (he's not everyone) i've cooked ribs before. the blogger thought removing blood was a given.
so she didn't post it on her blog. so i've made steamed ribs without removing blood. what blogs do you look at? (how are the 3-minute noodles?) (washing them in cold water to keep them resilient) are they cooked? (the noodles are stiff) (flustered) i don't think they're cooked. (finally)
they're like wire. oh, no. your child could lose her teeth on her birthday. she'll lose her teeth. (birthday implant) that looks like something you'd place sashimi on. something you don't eat. (useful for decoration) those are fried. fried glass noodles. (consider a father's love first) moms will say it's not edible.
oh, no. what am i going to do? (he can't give up here) (he must save the noodles!) what do i do with the noodles? (they're in dire need) can't i just let them cook in the seasoning? (starting with basic seasoning?) you're adding other ingredients? (it's going to be a difficult surgery) (3-minute glass noodles go into the pan)
the noodles can be cooked in the pan. you're stir-frying them? (while mr. songdo is looking away) (the noodles are left alone) he just seasoned the noodles. (he hasn't saved them) the seaweed soup wasn't so bad, but... i don't want to say this, but did you mess up the japchae? (goodbye, japchae) he messed it up.
(glass noodles are still left on the heat) (it's not the time to be cooking beef...) let's watch. you never know. (the noodles need help) he may use other methods. just because his method is different... he could be using a different recipe. (that smoke looks ominous) the noodles are burned. no! - they're burned. / - they didn't taste burned.
you're supposed to cook them separately and mix. (in a bind) i'm sure there's a way to save them. save them again? cpr. cpr. (i haven't given up on the japchae yet) (the glass noodles are burned to the pan) he has to give up on the pan now. he's not... no... no way. you're not... are you?
(what did they just see?) (scissors?) (was cooking for his girl a reckless challenge?) (this is like...) are you giving them a haircut? (japchae haircut) it got a haircut? (a japchae perm is possible, too) i didn't know noodles went to beauty salons. what? i never saw someone use scissors on japchae. you'll give layered cuts next time.
give a perm to noodles, too. (hair designer songdo) i didn't mean to. (mr. songdo's cooking continues) you'll understand why i did it if you keep watching. i don't want to watch anymore. they're telling us that there's no more video. (ending the video is the only way to survive) the end. there are two ways to make japchae. (not all wrong) you can boil the noodles first (cook separately)
and mix with stir-fried vegetables. as for me, i soak the noodles. then i boil soy sauce, syrup, and oil. when the sauce is boiling, i add cooked noodles. that's how you coat the noodles. that's what i was going for. what do you mean? it was completely different. that was the recipe. the coating recipe. but you didn't coat. you cut.
you should say it correctly. that was cutting. (that's such a refreshing comment) (making japchae that he can't save) they're burned. no. (let's try to save the unburned noodles) that pan would get food stuck on it for anyone. thank you. please tell that to everyone. it's true. - it's uncoated. / - it's a hard pan to use.
(fewer noodles are left) there. (he adds uncooked vegetables!) he added vegetables. it doesn't look so bad. he can cook them that way. - it's starting to look like japchae. / - of course. (how does it taste?) (he doesn't look too happy)
who tastes japchae that way? (what is it?) he doesn't look happy. (where did it go wrong?) he's checking the recipe. i was supposed to cook the vegetables first. oh, no. (he realized it too late...) but the amount of glass noodles now... only half are left. (before/after) they were stuck to the pan.
he cut off a lot. (noodles lost style due to haircut) only half of them are left. delicious japchae isn't the only japchae. if they think of my fatherly love for them, they might enjoy it. (he bows his head) (to make up for the ruined japchae) (he thoroughly checks the next recipe!) fish pancakes.
(no more mistakes! next dish: fish pancakes) you're making fish pancakes now? (why the photo?) fish pancakes are hard to make, too. (fish pancakes: wash fish in salt water and season) (dunk in salt water) - in salt water. / - in salt water? (can't understand) why did you leave them in salt water? i've never seen that before. (so much criticism) i thought he was making spicy fish soup.
oh gee. (after a slight seasoning, ready to fry them) (destroyed) (he's seen it somewhere) it's hard to break an egg with one hand. doing it with one hand is supposed to look cool. you just destroyed the yolk. you got eggs all over your hands. (egg liquid prepared) good.
(he learned how to cook from reading about it) (he just needs to cook them well on a pan) it smells good. that wasn't so easy either. (shape) (looks good so far!) they look good. (mr. songdo is actually cooking now) oh no! it's burnt! that's why you're supposed to use lots of oil. like you're deep-frying it.
i thought it wouldn't be healthy. that's why they are all burnt. (he rushes to flip them over, but can't save them) wait a minute. (mr. songdo's heart burnt with the fish pancakes) wait. (oh no) - he's starting to rub them. / - oh no. oh no. what's going on?
that's what we want to ask you. what are you doing? (it does look terrible) we have a new dish. oh no. this is bad. how will i save these? (even your wife can't save them) huh? what is it? it's really good.
(he has found hope!) one second... that's the strange part. (it's a mystery for him, too) it should be bad, but it's good. they can eat it this way. it's not bad. (scrambled cod fish is ready) - it's not bad. / - it's still good. (i can't mess up anymore) (he was doing something else while cooking)
it's burnt. oh no. (and ruined japchae) what do i do? (fish pancakes failed) (if he messes up any more) (his daughter's birthday meal is ruined) noodle soup is the best for birthdays. that's what you're making. (last hope: noodle soup) i hope that comes out nicely. (they feel bad for him) it isn't easy to make that either.
wait. i don't think there's a pot available. all of them are used. (he's cooking for his daughter's birthday) who's going to clean that up? oh no. he can't use two of the pots. (he has taken out every pot in the house) he has taken out every pot in the house. (7th pot is ready to be used) what am i supposed to do with this?
why did you buy a radish? (he has learned cooking from a book) you said you've been housekeeping for three years? i think you've been doing it for three minutes. - no, i... / - just three minutes. i just chose the wrong dishes. many people think noodles are easy to make. noodles are hard. it takes a lot of work. i just peeled it and its size is different.
(before after) i'm supposed to cut it into thin slices. why are you cutting radish? (he continues to cut while eating radish) (making broth for noodle soup) oh, for the broth. (radish) i thought he was making seasoned fish. (anchovies) (onion) (kelp)
why did you put in so much kelp? because it's good for you. i have to succeed this time. i've done it. (the taste of soup is good) he put in a lot of kelp, so it can't be bad. i'm sure the soup tastes good. (he even added radish) - right. / - right? i feel like i'm getting pitied. he's mixing in vegetables.
(he's controlling the heat well this time) (the ingredients are cooked well) i think i'm doing a good job this time. (it's about time he succeeded) (slurp) yes! (toppings are good) it looks bad because i went after taegyu. it wouldn't be so bad if i were aired on my own. what are you doing?
what's this? (he's baking tangerines?) it's dessert. jeju-do residents eat these a lot in the winter. you're baking oranges. (baked oranges) i heard that tangerines are sweeter and they're good for preventing colds. i thought i should make dessert, too. right. this sounds good.
- i didn't know. / - this is my first time. (it may boil over) (it's about to boil over) (he adds cold water) you must've seen somewhere about adding cold water. - i know that much. / - you do? (that's nothing) you're supposed to add cold water? see? there are people who don't know. it boils over.
since it's boiling over. (it's okay to learn it now) (noodles become resilient in cold water) this is the most important step for noodles. (how do baked tangerines look?) (they look like they've been colored with a marker) it looks like... they're supposed to look like that. (believe it or not) they always look like that? they always look like that.
i really don't want to be misunderstood. (the birthday meal doesn't look so bad) i successfully made noodle soup. i can proudly serve the noodles. that's how well it was made. (he challenged himself to cook with determination) (and made one successful dish!) the noodles taste okay. oh, this is what i can do! (he has an idea!)
- please don't. / - let's use this. what are you going to do? i can use these vegetables. - what? / - this is japchae, too. i saved the noodles that way. that's japchae. (complete?) oh, that's right! (he forgot about the seaweed soup)
how's the seaweed soup? (thick) it was awesome. if you put all of them together, it's not too bad. but the broth... why isn't there any broth? (who's to blame? it boiled down) - is that steamed seaweed? / - is it seasoned seaweed? seaweed stew. how do you get soup like that? that's amazing.
i think he used too much seaweed. i put in lots of seaweed. (putting the dishes together) (mr. songdo's daughter's birthday meal is complete) see? doesn't it look okay? (it doesn't look so bad) it's not bad. - i can see the love. / - sure. i must take a photo. (taking a photo is a must!) mission complete! (#daughtersbirthday #fatherslove)
what? says who? who said you completed the mission? what does my daughter's birthday meal mean to me? a challenge that hasn't ended yet? i'd like to try once more. have you ever cooked for your wife's birthday? she's going to be upset. i should've done that first. (anyway, his mission is complete)
i am embarrassed to be applauded. (embarrassed) since we applauded for you, why don't you give us that laugh? this is when you're supposed to laugh. it's addicting. it relieves stress. (addictive laugh) why did you put my video after taegyu's? bong taegyu is closer to a god than a human. sure. he's just unique. don't be intimidated. you might get more fans.
i'd like to request the production team to put my video before or after kim iljung's. if you are aired before or after me... you think you can overtake me easily? if i am after or before you, i wouldn't look so bad. i'm average. the only one who is worse than i am is you, iljung. you've misunderstood. don't think i'm the worst one. you all have memories of birthday meals, right?
it was my first birthday after getting married. i was upset over some a trivial thing. so i told my wife not to cook for my birthday. but my wife really didn't cook anything. of course! why would she? i told her not to cook, so she really didn't. she had bought groceries already (wife was upset too) and i was upset over nothing. she was upset, too. so i was like this, all glum. (birthday meal was gone)
a few days later, there was one thing that i really wanted. a wireless vacuum cleaner. what? (that's ridiculous) don't go in that direction again. - i don't believe this. / - wait! who wants a vacuum cleaner for his birthday? how can you badly want a vacuum cleaner? i was in charge of cleaning since my wife got pregnant.
because vacuum cleaners are heavy. (glaring) because of the cord, it isn't easy to clean with a vacuum cleaner. so i really wanted a wireless one. i begged for one and she said we don't need one. you begged? i kept asking her for one. then she bought me one. if you look on my social media account,
i posted it because i was so happy. that's possible. they are a show-window couple. what? how? i prefer a man who doesn't get all glum. i didn't get glum. that's correct. your wife brought groceries to cook for you and you told her not to cook anything.
you must be good at housekeeping, but you're a bit reckless. you fight with your wife. your image has gone down a bit. (everyone has faults) what do you eat on your birthday? we go out to eat. (eating out on birthdays) - you eat out? / - yes. birthdays are only once a year. we must eat really good food befitting the occasion.
if my wife cooks, i can't eat it because it's not good. how can you say that on tv? i want to eat good food on my birthday. my kids, too. we usually go to a family restaurant. i want to eat food made by chefs. must you sacrifice your family to be on this program? are you that desperate for work? tomorrow is the last shoot of the drama.
i will use my mother-in-law later, too. just wait! he's selling his family to be a fixed guest here. we always eat out on birthdays to eat good food. even if it's not that good, if it's made with love i convince myself that it's good. my wife can't cook as well as a chef to be honest. she isn't as good as my mother. it was 3-4 years into our marriage.
she got the exact birthday recipe from my mom. wow, that's amazing. (touched by his wife's love) - that must've been touching. / - i was touched. the combination of mom and wife is touching. now that i hear him talk, (changing his mind) i must take back what i said. even if it's bad... - wait. / - even if it tastes bad... no. you got enough airtime earlier. you don't have to do that. it's okay.
if you've chosen your direction, go with it. - sorry. / - don't be hesitant. you don't have to be touched. you know the food my mom made. you still call her mom? the food that my mother makes. (awkward) just call her mom. comfortably. i like "mom" more than "mother." my mother doesn't like that.
you don't call your father "dad," right? that's weird. (you've gone too far, chulmin) i call my mom "mom," but saying "dad" is weird. my mother makes cabbage kimchi stew and marinated radish in soybean paste really well. my wife knew i like those. my wife made them for me. she got the recipe from my mom. then at some point, the food my wife makes and my mom's
began to taste the same. yes, they become one at one point. that's when it's really touching. my mother was also a great cook. it must've been hard to pack lunch every day, but my lunch was always so popular. - i always had meat. / - that's the best. not just meat. sweet and sour pork. chili sweet and sour pork.
i'm amazed. (he must've been rich) everyone took my lunch. - you were well-off. / - you were definitely well-off. my mom made sure i ate well. why don't you thank your mother? she always believed that i have to eat breakfast. to your mother. (all right. a video message to her) i wanted to sleep in more when i was young... a video message to your mother.
do i have to? if he says to, just do it. you packed my lunch every day and i ate big breakfasts, so i've grown this much. thank you. but then... - that was so short. / - it was too short. mom... then she... she switched to healthy food at some point.
she stopped seasoning the food. if i go visit her, she makes food for me. but everything is bland! you're mean to your mother, too. send a threatening video to her. telling her to cook properly. it's bong taegyu. it's mr. jeongreung's turn.
(he continues to wait) a lot of time has passed. (he knows how to wait) it takes a long time. (is the topping meat ready?) wow! it looks like tea. (clean) (what is he going to do with the cloth?) i learned this from my mother. she said the meat must be cooled wrapped in cloth
to shape it better. you know exactly what to do. you're supposed to wrap it to cool the meat. are you cutting an umbilical cord? (a master craftsman's scissoring) he's giving a haircut, too. let it cool. you're at the level of a pro. (checking the soup) you didn't just take a peek to learn how to do it.
- you're removing it? / - grease and other substances. you have to take it out. (takes time and love) it's like making food for the king. you're truly bong janggeum. bong janggeum. i'm like a master craftsman. a young craftsman. (he removes grease from the pot, too)
(down to the last drop of grease!) (clean) again? i don't like that picture. (meditation time again) why? don't try to relax here. (he's making a call) he doesn't even rest. hello? (calling his wife) oh, with your wife.
about 5 o'clock? you're reporting it to her? to ask her to treat him with love. i'll prepare dinner and wait for you. that's not what a man should say. a man could say that. what's wrong with that? that was a dangerous comment. (gotcha) why are you being so mean to me? i understand taegyu. (he attempts to change his image)
- what? / - what do you mean you understand? see you soon. bye. hello. (taegyu's wife, photographer hasisi park) i'm bong taegyu's wife, hasisi park. she's so pretty! my husband cooks for me very often. every time i taste his food, i realize he's a better cook than i am.
the savoriness, wholesomeness, and personal touch of his food is different from what other men make. (ingredients chosen by taegyu) (the refrigerator is emptied out) you emptied the fridge. (washing fresh vegetables) what are you going to make? (what is he cooking?) - are you chopping again? / - what's this? my wife really likes salad.
she recently said she wants coleslaw. you have to chop again. they sell coleslaw at hamburger places. just buy it. you can eat hamburgers and vegetables. it only costs around $1.50. (chop chop chop) (the knife is dancing on the cutting board again) it's so much better to make it yourself. you're chopping again.
i'm so jealous of this. (cooking is his way of expressing his love) (tears of emotions) it stings. it does. (i'll make you yummy salad, honey) (vegetables for salad are done) (highlight of the salad: homemade dressing) you're making your own dressing.
you need to put in vinegar, too. and pepper. that looks like it'll good. salad will get watery if you make it in advance. how detailed. (love-filled cole slaw is ready) he's cooking right before his wife gets back. it means she's coming home soon. next is... soboro rice bowl.
the combination of pork, cucumber, and eggs is really good. i've never heard of that before. (remove seeds) it's called a soboro rice bowl. people eat it a lot in japan. (green part is ready) i watch cooking shows (tap tap tap) and make the dishes myself. (breaking the eggs) (what's this?) my mom made it at home. (round 3 - mother's chance)
she marinated ginger in alcohol to use in place of cooking wine. ginger alcohol! (a tablespoon of sugar, too) we normally put in cheongju, which is clear wine, but he put in ginger. (mixing) you're good! (pour over a heated pan) i love that sound. ah.
(mixing with love) (firm) (scrambled egg) it looks like you've cooked many times. - that's right. / - that's true. (yellow part complete) you're really perfect for our program. i really hope our program survives a long time. the best thing about this program is that they pay for part of your groceries.
(so stingy) - oh my. / - it's the best! (housekeeping in his bones) i hope this program lasts at least 15 years! that's good. (he greases the pan) (and adds minced garlic) (garlic oil splatters) (ah!) (pouring ground pork)
(mr. jeongreung's tip: use garlic oil to remove odor) (sizzle) (looks good) after watching the noodle-cutting earlier, this is so different. don't be like this. this is not fair. (why are you so mean to me?) (recipe for pork: a pinch of salt) (a cup of sugar)
(a cup of soy sauce) (a cup of ginger alcohol) (stir stir stir) it looks good! - oh wow. / - how did it turn out like that? all you have to do is boil it down. you're so good. you're so good! (chef bong) it's like you're on a cooking show. that recipe is easy to follow,
so you should try it at home. (ingredients for tri-colored soboro rice bowl ready) (his hands move carefully) you're placing it on top of the rice? (place the ingredients on the rice) that really looks good. (surprised by the look and taste) people usually pack that as lunch in japan. it's good for a meal. all you have to do is mix.
- is that cucumber in the middle? / - yes. i don't really like cucumbers. you're so bothersome. (no one asked you) (beef bone broth is still boiling) (it has become dark outside) (he still has a lot to do) (he starts to cut the meat) you're using the knife all day. (yum) you keep eating while you cook.
you always eat the end. (slicing in equal thickness) it's cooked well. it's really well-cooked. that's the day you said you ate meat at a work dinner? he said he ate a lot of meat. (the last piece goes into my mouth!) (now that's what i'm talking about!) (one more) (he can't help but be amazed)
it's firm, but it's soft inside. and it is full of flavor inside. that's when meat tastes the best. if the cook says it's good, that means it's truly good. i'm so jealous. look. (so jealous) he's setting aside his wife's portion. you really do love your wife. don't you all?
of course. (half-hearted) of course. (what are you doing, mr. jeongreung?) (concentrating) are you cutting off the crust? (prisoner jeongreung) a little... (why are you cutting it off?) - to make it pretty? / - what are you doing? are you making something? (what are you doing?) that's just wrong.
why are you going this far? (heart) (pleased with himself) (this is my love for you, honey) (head over heels for his wife) she'll burst out laughing. and be like, "that rascal." us? no, no.
i hate playing around with food. exactly! that was such a great comment. she said it's cute. that's enough. thanks, honey. you got married to be loved. he said that's his biggest wish. wow. (is the beef bone soup ready?) wow! i think it's done.
wow! it's really milky. it's dark outside. (so busy) beef bone soup took a really long time. (shaking head) your gas bill will come out to be $600. it's better to just buy it. go to a broth place and buy it. - you'll pay more for gas. / - it's better to buy it. (broth filter) (he uses perfect tools)
(anchovies and dried shrimp) you're making another broth? miso soup. (even dried skipjack tuna) oh my. (shaking his head) i'm impressed. (two extremely opposite examples) (#howeverhewants / #brothfilter) (#idrinktherest #usingalreadyboiledwater) (he pours pre-boiled water) my wife liked it when i made it last time.
you can buy that, too. (making miso soup this time) (cutting tofu into cubes) you must cube tofu in small pieces. seaweed, too. (dicing green onions) he's slow, but it's beautiful. (miso soup ingredients complete) you're right. you really put in so much love. cook for us at our house, too.
you're using japanese miso. - you have japanese miso at home? / - yes. (how does the broth taste?) is your mouth protruding because you've tasted so much? is that why your mouth is protruding? (he got burned) how can you say that? i'm hearing mean comments in real time. taegyu is loved by the viewers
but he's hated by us. (he's hated by the hosts) (ingredients go into the pot) (looking good) (pour the soup into a bowl) you can't do that every day, right? be honest. of course not. but i try to do it as much as i can. you seem to like cooking. right? (japanese miso soup) yes, i do. (tri-colored soboro rice bowl)
- that's a true meal. / - it's so pretty! (coleslaw) (yummy dinner for his wife is ready) a japanese home meal has been completed in jeongreung. i think she'll like it. she has always liked whatever i made for her. it was one of the best meals i've had so far. he made a meal with exactly what i like. and it was so pretty. i loved it. how would you score your husband?
he can't be scored. if you must? if i must... (contemplating) be honest. be honest. a perfect score. this is disappointing. what's disappointing? i can see that taegyu will become more popular. (housekeeping is about being loved - bong taegyu)
wow. - i enjoyed the video. / - it was the best. i must admit you've done well. if you've done that much for your wife, have you done the same for your mother? that's a pointed question. (you're the best, seungwoo) yes. there's a story behind it. our family was really poor. (i began working when i was 20 to pay back a debt and)
(i helped my sisters when they got married...) that's how i lived, so i still haven't been able to cook for my mom. that's just an excuse. (why such a long explanation?) your explanation was too long. that didn't sound so good. he just got millions of haters. i should cook for her soon, though. seyoon... control your emotions.
seyoon! control your emotions! what are you doing? (just proceed without me) why are you crying? your mom will be disappointed when she watches this. my mom is glad that my wife made me a better person. the point is... the way i see it is... you're living with your mother. if you're working and doing housekeeping at home,
your wife will get criticized. that's not true. "my son is working this hard? he's spending hours in the kitchen cooking. is this what he got married for?" your mom could think that. my mom knows how i was in the past. so she's worried that my wife may abandon me. there's proof on my wife's social media account.
my sister wrote a comment. (bong's sister's reply) please don't abandon him. so you're doing this to avoid getting abandoned? that's not it. it means he loves his wife. i heard that you two have worked together before. there are so many actors, but i ended up in a drama with a comedian. you were in a drama?
yes. i'm a comedian and an actor. - i prepared something. / - really? how long ago was this? another panel? you kept it deep inside. can't you just use a monitor or something? this is so nice. here! why are you laughing? this is awesome. i look great. (looks like he's dressed up for a skit) why did you pose like this? (can't believe their eyes)
that weighs 12kg. (the weapon weighs 12kg) i nearly broke my wrists. (carried it the whole time) i had to carry it like it wasn't heavy. 12kg. what did people say? not much. it didn't go so well for me. but i become good friends with other actors. are you close with sung yuri? of course. yuri and i go way back.
he's saying her name like they're friends. i knew seungwoo from a long time ago, too. - since when? / - really? (how?) seungwoo. don't you remember me? why are you using your acting voice? we were in a movie together. he knows something. (i know mr. songdo's past) i first met you in 1991.
you may not remember. "general's son 2." - yes. / - right, he was in that. what role did you play? i was one of the men in the japanese gang. our men. ("general's son 2") (mr. hyehwa was chubbier then) many people with a face like that were in that movie. a face like that? (you're not one to talk) you'd be on the same side, too.
(perfect to play a japanese officer!) there's a weird habit actors have. if the actors play roles in gangs, they somehow turn into gangsters or hoodlums. (is it because they get too into their roles?) depending on the movie genre. that's true. (right) someone came up to me during the shoot.
he said, "seungwoo wants to see you." it was like a line from the movie. (how scary) - it's scary. / - at night. so i went. i had no other choice. there was a campfire and mr. songdo was sitting in the middle. then the other actors were lined up next to him. come on! (so cheesy) it wasn't an act. they just naturally stood like that.
the role seungwoo played at the time was one where he brought kim duhan, a beggar, into his gang. - right. / - he was the boss. he was the best in the movie. it's so complicated. (mr. songdo in 1991) welcome. (this is the general's son) did you beat up my boys?
are you interested in joining me? this is what seungwoo said to me. "are you chulmin?" "i heard that you're funny." "tell me a funny story." out of the blue. do you remember? - that's nonsense. / - and then what happened? i was quite perplexed. (since seungwoo told him to) so i told him a funny story.
he laughed out loud. he said my story was funny. (he was quite satisfied) then he said this to me. (what did seungwoo say?) "chulmin. let's see each other often from now on." - that's what he said. / - oh, that's cheesy. - think about it. / - that's nonsense. no way. we were around 21 years old. that's why it's funnier.
what's the age gap between the two of you? isn't there a one year difference? - really? / - yes, we are a year apart. but in the movie, he was way up there. he wasn't even the general's son. (fall has almost turned to winter) (lee chulmin's house in hyehwa-dong) it's hyehwa-dong. mr. hyehwa. it's a quiet neighborhood.
(he's reading a script in front of a fireplace) oh, that's hot. that's such an act. (people are criticizing) that's an act. oh, that's hot. (he seems clumsy from the start) hello. i've been married for 18 years. sigh... i've been doing housekeeping for 28 years.
hello. i'm actor lee chulmin. (grunt) (you're going to start housekeeping now?) where are you headed? - to my study. / - oh. (the purpose of this room?) it's my study. your study? i can't find any books. that's your study? my desk and my computer are there.
you see books next to the desk? there are so many clothes. (he puts them aside) do you have books in your wardrobe? or do you have clothes in your study? i should put away... (stuffing it in) these clothes. (so distracting) this is supposed to be my study.
he's confused, too. (where does it say it's a study?) what i must do today is re-organizing my study and wardrobe. - re-organizing a wardrobe. / - that's so hard. it takes the whole day. cleaning out a wardrobe really does take the whole day. (it is 9:27 a.m.) hold on. i should go wear my uniform. i will slit your throat. (chilling... like this?)
(terrifying) terrifying. i look so different from taegyu. it looks like he's going to get his boys to clean. oh my god. - oh my god. / - oh my god, what is that? you're trying too hard to change your image. i love pajamas. i love pink.
if i wear pink, the young girl side of me awakens. what's up with those socks? (cutie man lee chulmin) why do you like those pajamas so much? there's a reason behind it. after my first child was born, we had our second child 12 years later. - 12 years apart. / - yes.
i wanted to hold my baby. your child didn't like your clothes? i was looking for clothes to make me feel like a mom. then i found those soft pajamas. kids love it because it's soft. when i tried it on, it was really soft. let's get to work. the clothes... by season.
- once you start... / - it becomes a big task. you can't stop in the middle. if you do, you've just wasted your time. i need to throw my wife's clothes now. - throw out your wife's clothes? / - you shouldn't. those are all my wife's. 90% of the clothes in the wardrobe are my wife's. i should clean out the wardrobe instead of my wife and throw out the clothes she doesn't wear.
that way i can find room for my lovely pink pajamas and socks. these sparkling clothes... (bling bling) wow, that's are flashy. this is a christmas tree. (his wife has unique taste) i love this color. - you like pink? / - this is dangerous. (real hot pink) oh my!
i would wear it if the sleeves were longer. (he tries it on) oh my god. (it's just my style) - i think i can wear it. / - it looks good on me. oh my. (back to work) (clothes are being thrown out one by one) your wife has more clothes than i thought. she does. she has so many.
this part is easy. sorting them out is the hard part. let's throw out old clothes. (sorting clothes) and wear what's good. (sorting job begins) is she a leopard? (that's quite bold) throw it out. is it okay to throw her clothes out without permission? she hasn't worn them for over 10 years. your wife can't throw things away easily?
she throws mine away easily, but not hers. is this a carpet or what? (can't refute) (looking forward to the next one?) (this time it's flower print) is this a tablecloth? how can she wear...? we can use this when we drink tea. (reuse for tea time) flower prints were popular once.
it's a tablecloth. how can you call it a tablecloth? - your wife is indeed unique. / - yes, she is. she doesn't have normal clothes. she doesn't like normal clothes. maybe it's because she's an actress, but she loves clothes too much. they're not even expensive. she finds vintages clothes and
loves to pick out clothes from vintage stores. but i've never seen her wear them. this is the highlight of my wife's clothes. she'll go ballistic if i throw this out. is she a hairtail fish? (silver hairtail skirt) it's not easy to pull that off. (getting worse) she always buys clothes like that. it really looks like a hairtail is swimming. seriously...
isn't that what cheerleaders use? i sometimes wonder what my wife does when i'm not home. what is this? (she must hold parties) are those pajamas? or a dress? what is this for? (every outfit is unique) look at this. how am i supposed to understand this? i've lived with her for 18 years but i'm curious about my wife for the first time.
you keep complaining. i don't see my clothes. they are all hers. (a pile of wife's clothes) can't you just get rid of that shelf instead? i will fill it up with books one day. i can wear this when it gets cold. - those don't follow trends. / - right. i shouldn't throw this out. (my pajamas will stay)
i'll wear this when it gets cold. i wore this five years ago when i was on stage. i'll keep it as a memory, even if i don't wear it. these jeans. these are really old. (these jeans look old) throw them out or keep them? fashion trends always go in circles. let's keep them. (his clothes that he couldn't throw out)
but the things you haven't worn for many years you won't wear again. if you fold your clothes, you end up not taking them out, since it's hard to. so they just stay where they get placed. you just wear what you always wear. (throw out wife's clothes, keep my clothes) you're going to throw all of them out? is it okay to just throw them all out?
(searching) (let's look through the pockets again) (he's surprisingly thorough) he found something. he got something. unbelievable! (yes! i found something!) money? i know that feeling. (the world is a great place)
(i found money) money! - are those your jeans? / - yes. (found in old jeans) $15! (he found $15) you all know how that feels, right? maybe there's money in other pockets, too. you're suddenly searching other clothes. (ecstatic) instead of money i need to find our plastic bag of jewelry.
i need to find our jewelry. when we were moving, we kept the jewelry in a plastic bag to keep them safe. we haven't found them for two years now. no one knows where it went. it had your wedding rings? (what jewelry?) my children's one-year birthday rings. yes. people keep them. there's another thing that's valuable.
when i moved to seoul, my mother gave me a gold necklace. so that if i ever needed money... for an emergency. she told me to sell it to get money. my 20-year-old gold necklace is in there. oh no. i hope you find it. i gave it to my wife to keep it. i hope i find it.
you found it? (is it?) (the family jewelry?) - a lighter? / - it's a lighter! (he folds and puts them away) (often seen in between seasons) you organize very well. you really organize well! (clothes are filling up the shelves)
(wife's clothes to keep) this has too much lint on it. let's see. (what technique will he show us?) (a razor and eyebrow knife) what's that? lint. (what's he going to do with an eyebrow knife?) i need to remove the lint. it's winter now.
there's too much lint. (scratching it off) (as if he's shaving a sheep) - wow! / - wow! (it relieves stress) this is his secret method that makes the clothes new. there's no other husband like me. who else would remove lint from their wife's sweater? it's as if a dog is shedding. there we go. (ta da) (lint completely removed)
it's clean now! (she can wear it a year or two more!) and you use that knife for your eyebrows again? my wife will use it when she needs to. i'll just put it back. (how fun) (been organizing for 3 hours) that's my treasure box. my love, my precious treasure.
- are those fluffy socks? / - what are those? they are fluffy socks and pajamas i've been collecting. i love fluffy pajamas. i love fluffy pajamas. (my treasure) see? now i have space. (the reason why he organized the wardrobe) (more space for his fluffy socks & pajamas) i'll organize them by color! pink with pink.
fluffy pajamas are addicting. and the combination with a fluffy blanket... it's over. (guys, i've made space for you) blue on the bottom. (never-ending parade of pajamas) how many pairs of pajamas do you have? they are so colorful. those pink ones are your wife's, right? they're all mine. (men are all about pink!)
they are all mine. (a shopping bag?) are you giving them away? why? they're my treasure. - you're storing them in the bag. / - yes. it seems like you've done this a lot. yes, i've been doing housekeeping for years. you're quite detailed. (ta-da) that's so clean.
(use shopping bags to utilize leftover space) you're utilizing the leftover space, right? finally, there's space for my clothes. i'm done. (wardrobe is organized) (the wardrobe once full of wife's vintage clothes) that feels great. (now a warm house for fluffy pajamas) so you basically got rid of your wife's clothes. you got rid of your wife's clothes for your pajamas. (after removing wife's clothes)
(the study is much cleaner) i'm done organizing the wardrobe! let's throw these out before my wife gets back. i'm scared that you might get caught. i should throw them away before she returns. (perfect crime) i've organized the room now, and it was tough and i breathed in so much dust, but it feels good to see a clean room.
the best part is that my fluffy pajamas are on the shelves. i'm so happy. (i'd rather go on an outdoor shoot) housekeeping is tough. oh, i'm so tired. (housekeeping is "stealing my wife's spot" - chulmin) i enjoyed your video. by the way, did you find the jewelry?
no, i haven't. please help me find it. i think you'll find it after several shoots. we should go help him find it. we should go. (a housewarming party?) if i can find them, yes. (agreed) do you have anything you're hiding? hidden objects? i don't. but i've experienced something absurd once.
- you hid food? / - no. my wife and i had matching rings when we were dating. i had my ring on and i was driving. i had the window opened just this much. i was singing a song. (mr. gimpo's fun driving time) i got a cramp in my hand. so i shook my hand and the ring went out the window. - through that narrow gap? / - oh no. the gap was only this big
and it just went out. it was a clean shot. on an expressway. - oh no. / - you should've blocked the expressway. when you experience something so absurd, you end up laughing. it went out. (addictive laugh) that's is 100% made up.
how can a ring on your finger come off that easily? it can't fall off those fingers. - honestly. / - then what happened? (please believe me) i couldn't get the ring back. my wife yelled at me. that's why i'm saying this on tv. that's how i lost the ring. if you have similar experiences, post on our website. then i'll live an easier life. - i don't think there'll be anyone. / - me too.
if you know where my jewelry is hidden... find it yourself. is there anything you don't want your spouse to find? i have a special love for plates. - sure. women do. / - i understand. i love pots and pans. men don't understand that. i don't nag at my wife for buying things. but i don't like it when she buys her own clothes. why not?
she can't choose nice clothes. i choose her outfits. (oh my) all her clothing. (i choose what my wife wears) she can have her own taste. (what's that?) i choose outfits well. (i have great sense of fashion) what kind of style? any style she wants. out of all of us (mr. busan's choice) which one of us would you like to re-dress?
hairstyle or anything. i could say something, but you wouldn't change your style anyway, right? it's you, seyoon. (in a daze) i've been wondering, too. this is a hoodie? is this a hoodie? (it's too small to be a hoodie) no, no, no. (no misunderstanding please) - it's a collar. / - it's a collar. it becomes a hoodie for other people.
what about iljung's outfit? why? i look dandy, don't i? (dandy) your shoulders look very narrow. please zoom in on him. (sorry we couldn't protect you) the balance... do you really think that? did you get a cramp in your shoulders? many people think that. but once they stand next to me, they say, "your shoulders are wider than i thought."
i'm sitting right next to you. that's nonsense. (no?) i think he has has a big head. you shouldn't be so blunt. (bingo) it's like looking at a scarecrow. (theory of kim iljung being a scarecrow) sparrows are sitting on you. tell me if you need shoulder pads. i have some at home. they are 20 years old.
(next on mr. house husband) the ultimate level of housekeeping. (there isn't anything harder than this) (making kimchi is hard for housewives, too) (mr. gimpo does it alone) let it taste good. (please taste good) awesome! (revealed in the studio) (mr. gimpo's kimchi) (lick)
(housekeeping master mr. busan) my wife is lucky to have a husband like me. (it's art) (mr. yeomchang finally does housekeeping?) this is how you get loved. (wants his wife to love him) (mr. yeomchang cleans the kitchen) (he has started on the job, but...) i shouldn't have started. (regrets it from the start) i shouldn't have started this.
(will his first attempt to do housekeeping end here?) ("white night" by up10tion)
