[About two weeks ago at DdeunDdeun's office]
I came a bit earlier than expected. Congratulations on the award
you received yesterday. Thank you. [2024 Brand of the Year Awards
Winner: Male Entertainer, Male Web Show MC]

I received the award for web variety,
probably Pinggyego. I only do Pinggyego when it comes
to web variety shows. So it's probably from Pinggyego. Thanks to Gyewon for the Brand of the Year award!

I've received this award as an entertainer
for five consecutive years now. But this is my first time winning a web show. [Double award, thank you!]
Thank you, everyone. [Thankful to the production team]
Thank you, everyone.

[A tip-off about today's guest]
But we had something we were curious about. [Reference to JTBC 'Knowing Bros' Episode 220]
During Shinhye's birthday party, Sae-ho went [Went to an uninvited birthday party]
even though he wasn't invited.

[Paid for the meal]
Sae-ho came and paid for everyone's meal. [Reference to tvN 'You Quiz']
Oh, recently, Yoo Byung-jae and Ji Changwook also paid for a meal recently.

These things have been a hot topic. Why are these guys going around
paying for everything? [The meal payment issue]
Though, of course, it's out of kindness. [We'll ask about it in a bit]
But still, it's a bit curious.

Ah~! Ah, how long has it been, Shinhye! [Shinhye, the welcome guest enters]
Shinhye, it's been so long! It really has been a long time. Hasn't it been almost...

[Reuniting with Gyeju after 8 years] - Wasn't the last time on Running Man?
- That's right. Wow, first sit down. Have a seat. Have a seat, okay... Landy Shinhye, sit down! 

- Did you see it?
- Of course, I saw it. [Shinhye threw the first pitch
on JTBC's 'A Clean Sweep'] Landy Shinhye. People in the comments said your pitch
was faster than Yoo Hee-Kwan's. 

Landy Shinhye. It's just that I'm left-handed, so... - Right.
- Hee-Kwan is left-handed too. That's right. You threw it quite well! [Proud]
I practiced a bit. [Proud fingers]
It's not that easy, throwing the first pitch. 

Now, Sae-ho will be coming. Do you have a close relationship with Sae-ho? Well, occasionally, I do. We have gatherings once or twice a year,
in private settings. Ah, my Joseph! Oh, you've arrived! 

[Sae-ho arrives] Joseph, it's been a while since you came by. Have you been well? [Fake crackdown]
We just filmed 'You Quiz' together! Oh, did you say,
"It's been a while since you came"? 

What did you think I said? I thought you said,
"It's been a while since we've met!" [Almost two months...]
Joseph [Joseph has been busy lately]
has been busy these days. [New show, wedding preparations]
Originally, on Pinggyego...

I haven't seen Gyewon members in such a long time. Even Gyewon members are curious! What exactly is going on? There's nothing at all. I should've greeted you all more often. Won't it be a bit tough
when the awards ceremony comes?

(Being busy) I don't even know
if I can make it to the awards. End of the year, now! I'm even worried
if I'll be invited to the awards. [Sae-ho recently joined '1 Night 2 Days']
But you've started new shows recently.

- You've been busy.
- No, here at the Pinggyego Awards. Ah, the Pinggyego awards. [Peculiar]
He's appearing a lot on short-form content. [Sae-ho frequently spotted] - We cheer for each other too much, maybe?
- Is that it?

- It's the algorithm.
- It's the algorithm. [Cheering makes you show up in the algorithm]
I like Shinhye so much. [Miracle logic]
Shinhye [Appearing without being searched for]
don't even search for Cho Sae-ho.

[Sae-ho's strong infiltration]
Huh? Why is that? Maybe it's because I have his number saved? Yes, we're quite close, after all. Scary AI. [Blame it on AI?
Reasonable(?) suspicion]

Amazing, really amazing. So, Shinhye joined us for this mini Pinggyego. - You're working on a drama, right?
- That's right. [The title is]
'The Judge from Hell'? Yes, I play The Judge from Hell...

- It's a fantasy show.
- Oh, I see. I'm a demon originally. I'm the judge who punishes sinners in hell. But due to one mistake, I'm demoted and sent to the human world. So, being The Judge from Hell,
it gives off a certain vibe.

A judge from hell,
just imagine how scary that would be. Is it like the King of the Underworld? Oh... It's more like... The religion is not based on Korean beliefs,
but on a foreign one. It's set in Dante's 'Divine Comedy.'

Oh, going with Dante will be tough for us. [Honestly]
It's tough for me too! [Overwhelming]
Dante... [The only Dante I know is
Joo Dante from 'The Penthouse'...] If we're bringing Dante and 'Divine Comedy'
into this, it's going to get difficult.

- I've heard of it!
- I've heard of it too. [But that's all I've heard]
I never really got into it. Bringing up Dante makes things harder. But before anything else, I heard this before you came here.

Why did you pay for the meal
at Shinhye's gathering? Wow, this story... [I've been curious since earlier, finally]
But this story... This is the first time
we're talking about it face-to-face. [Cho Sae-ho's payment incident
being discussed face-to-face for the first time]

Actually, because of that,
we've become much closer. That's right. [That event made us closer]
We're still very close now. - When was that?
- How long has it been? - About 8 years.
- It’s been even longer, right?

[More than 10 years ago] Oh, if it was back then... I'm not sure, but... Of course, the intention matters. Wasn't Shinhye doing much better financially
than you at that time? Shinhye's doing well financially now, too.

- Even now, Shinhye is...
- But why did Byung-jae do the same? She's an ambassador loved by various brands! Why did this happen? [Back to the incident]
What was the situation, Shinhye?

[Curious (Shinhye's memory)]
It was my birthday. I was with Hong-Gi, and Heechul was there too. Many of my friends were at my mom's restaurant,
celebrating my birthday. We ate, then decided to move on
to the second round.

Right at that moment, Sae-ho arrived. [Joseph has something to say]
Now, here's what happened. But hold on, darling! Wait, darling! It’s been so long since I called you that. But it's her birthday, after all.

[Interrogation mode]
Were you invited to the party? Or not? Even if you're going to slap me,
hear me out first! [Laughter] I wasn’t invited, but... - Please listen to my side first.
- Let's hear it.

[Curious (Sae-ho's memory)]
Sae-ho was just at home. - Then HEECHUL called.
- HEECHUL called him. I said, "Hey, HEECHUL! What’s up?"
He said, "What are you doing?"

I said, "I’m at home." Then he said, "Come out for a drink."
So I asked, "Where?" He said, it’s Shinhye’s birthday party. I've never met Park Shinhye before. He said, don’t worry about it.

It’s not you who needs to be okay with it,
but me, since I wasn’t invited... Right, good call. Shinhye has a great personality, So, HEECHUL said she'd be happy to see you.

(Hesitant) Well, even so... It’s a bit awkward, but then... HEECHUL said if I showed up,
he’d talk to Shinhye first. Then, we’d have a drink on our own afterward. - Well, that makes sense.
- That works.

So, I was standing outside
her mom's Gopchang restaurant. HEECHUL said, "Are you here?" I said, "Yeah!" "Since you’re here,
you should come in and say hello." [HEECHUL wanted to introduce Sae-ho to Shinhye]

I told him it’d be awkward. He said, "Shinhye is really nice." So, I worked up the courage and went in. She welcomed me so warmly! "Oh, hello, Sae-ho~!" "Nice to meet you.
I really enjoy watching you on TV."

Leaving right away would’ve been rude,
so I ended up sitting down. [And so, Sae-ho joined the birthday party] Up to that point. [Curious (Shinhye's memory)]
So, after we gathered, 

by the end, everyone was already quite... Drunk. - They were tipsy.
- Yeah, they were tipsy. But after the second round, we kept partying. HEECHUL and he couldn't slip away. [Sae-ho ended up going to the second round]
So, we all went together. 

[Most important question]
But why did you pay? That’s... [Now, tell us]
What's important is why did you pay for the bill? [Back to the incident...]
The mood was great, and we had fun. [Curious (Sae-ho's memory)]
As the birthday girl, 

Shinhye was allowed to drink a bit more,
since it was her party. But then, she had too much to drink
and left early! [Couldn’t resist the question]
Without paying? I didn’t know, I was too drunk. 

I didn’t realize it at all. Ah, Shinhye, this changes everything! [The situation takes a turn]
Wait, Joseph, wait... Are you saying the birthday girl fled? Not fled, but she was a bit too tipsy. 

Or maybe one of Shinhye’s friends told her not to worry, that they’d
cover the bill for her. [The truth behind the birthday bill]
But I just sat there. I wasn't that drunk since I joined late. 

And the situation wasn't one
where we could be drunk. As I was sitting there,
the staff brought over the bill. [Oh no...] They were holding the bill. There were business hours to consider. Of course, someone had to pay.

But when they handed me the bill, the staff member seemed a bit flustered. Someone had to pay, but everyone was pretty drunk by then. As they brought it over, [Eye contact] [Accidentally made eye contact]
I made eye contact with them.

[Still, feel sorry]
It was so long ago. But at that moment, I really don't remember.
But every time I hear this story, I feel like I owe you an apology, Sae-ho. No, no! [A story that perfectly matches Gyeju's taste]

The flow of the story is so perfect, darling. [Talk boosted by the compliment]
So, after making eye contact, the staff member approached me,
gathering courage. [Interesting] So I said, "Oh, yes." [Details that are new even to Shinhye]
Then they carefully asked,

- "Who’s going to pay for this?"
- Of course, someone should. I said the birthday person had left,
and I'm not sure what to do. They said they needed to tell someone,
but didn’t know how. And at that moment, I couldn't say,

"Wait, wait, hold on!" "Should we all split it?" - That would be a bit awkward.
- Of course, it would be weird. Then I looked around. I thought, maybe if I muster up the courage,
I could pay for it!

- Haha, were you on the edge?
- Yes! If I gathered my courage, I could pay. [Reason for hesitation]
But then I thought, if I pay, and later on, everyone finds out... [Worried about coming off as over the top]
Wouldn't it seem a bit...

Isn't this a bit over the top? I didn’t want it to seem like
I was showing off by paying for Shinhye. While I was contemplating this, there was no other option. Yes, paying was the right thing to do! 

[And so, Sae-ho]
Joseph did a really good thing. [Ended up paying for the second round]
So, I ended up paying. But did you find out later, Shinhye? I did find out later. [After 9 years, this good deed is finally revealed
on our mini Pinggyego!] 

[The hero of the story] So, I'm expressing my gratitude - finally...
- Saying it now. Before that, we had a meal... [They had a meal together as thanks in private]
We spent time together. You did well. 

Shinhye thanked me and even bought me
a delicious meal in return! [A heartwarming ending]
And this is how we became close. It all turned out well. [Sae-ho’s upcoming wedding]
Joseph is getting married soon. 

That’s right. We have to go! You both absolutely have to! Joseph's wedding is going to be [Joseph's wedding is expected to be grand]
quite a big event. - But I'm trying to keep it simple.
- Well, I heard that...

There'll be CEOs and many guests attending. - It's going to be simple, right?
- Oh, of course. - Are you sure it'll be simple?
- Yes, simple! [Planned to be as simple as Pyongyang naengmyeon]
I’ve been asked many times, 

so I’m really keeping it simple. - Is GD coming or not?
- Ah... I think he’ll come. [The garnish might be fancy, though]
But simply. - Is that simple?
- Yes, GD, simply. - Is PSY coming or not?
- PSY said he would come, too. 

Does that sound simple to you? - It seems pretty hip though, doesn't it?
- Does this sound simple? Yes, and Shinhye will come simply, too. [Simple guest lineup for the wedding: GD, PSY,
Park Shinhye, Yu Jae Seok, Lee Dong Wook + more] 

- Jae Seok will come, too.
- Exactly. I’ve cleared my schedule for Joseph’s wedding. Really? I think the whole nation will be buzzing that day. [Strong denial] It’ll almost be like an awards ceremony. [Nervous]
International media might even wonder, 

who is this guy? [Joseph is the man who made GD smile
at the 2017 Paris Fashion Show.] Starting with GD, then PSY... Some people already think Joseph is married. But he hasn’t yet. [Announced in April, wedding is in October]
It’s happening in October. 

Wow, that’s really soon! It feels like everything
is slowly falling into place. We even took our wedding photos recently. So, right after taking them, I sent them to you. Here are the photos, this is how it’s going. 

But why do you keep sending them to me? I’m not your father-in-law! I’m not your father,
but you keep sending them to me! Well, I took them,
so I wanted to show someone. [Joseph’s father figure in the entertainment industry]
Who else can I show?

You did well. [His cousin in the industry]
Dong Wook was there, too. It was funny, because after he came,
an article came out the next day. Recently, it was said that Lee Dong Wook
and Cho Sae-ho haven't been seen together much.

And now they meet
for wedding photos, something like that. [Busy, but preparing for the wedding happily]
You looked happy and well-matched. When I was getting married, you gave me so much advice. True love doesn’t come around often.

I felt like, "If not now, then when?" The timing of your advice was perfect. Yes, it was. Oh... Your future wife has made a big decision. What do you mean? [No misunderstandings]
Both of you!

[Got it] [Marriage requires commitment!]
Marriage is about commitment. It's about both families meeting, so both sides made big commitments. That’s right. - I’m grateful to both sides...
- What? [Listening intently to every word]

[Thanking the Gyewon members in advance]
I’m just... [Thanking them ahead of time]
Letting everyone know in advance. At what age did you start your career? In the second year of middle school? [2003 debut in Lee Seunghwan's 'Flower' MV]
I debuted through Lee Seunghwan's music video.

Appeared in SBS drama 'Stairway to Heaven'
the same year. ['Stairway to Heaven' as young Han Jung-seo]
You played the child role back then. [Fond memories]
"Love will come back to you."

I remember that. Of course, you went to school, but you must have spent a lot of time on set. Right. Were there things you regretted? But even now, my closest friends are my high school friends. [Had no regrets thanks to good friends]
I made great friends back then.

I'm someone who likes to keep
my work and personal life separate. - But that’s not easy, is it?
- It’s not, so... Even if I get along well with
the actors on set, once the project ends,
I find it hard to stay in touch.

If I meet someone casually
like with you, it's fine. But there’s always a chance
I could be an excuse. My high school friends feel
more comfortable to me. What about if you're filming
and a junior asks,

"Can we grab a meal together sometime?" I’d love that! But physically, as you can see, you're a bit... [At a tilted angle]
Right? Isn’t that it? [Introverts reading each other's minds]
Yes, I understand the feeling.

"Sure, let's have a meal," and we do, but... It just takes me some time. [Accurate]
I need some time. Oh, yes, that’s understandable. [Introvert world is hard for extroverts]
I like to approach and get close to people.

But it takes time, that’s what you mean. Then there are also people
who I become close with instantly. Oh, so paying for the birthday party bill
on the first meeting...! [That exact case] - I felt comfortable, right?
- Oh, of course.

[There are people you click with instantly] Yes, some people just fit well. Now that I’m in my mid-30s, finding someone who clicks with me is harder than it was in my 20s. That’s not always the case but in general!

As we get older, meeting new people doesn’t get any easier. [Joseph agrees]
What I find difficult these days is that in the past, I’d just have fun
hanging out with my friends, but now, I don’t know when to call it a night.

So, when my friends and I meet, we set a time. Let’s head home at this time. That sounds so unromantic!
How can we just set a time like that? [Surprised]
But my friends around me...

- Were you acting out a scenario?
- Ah, yes, haha. - Ah... I failed, didn’t I?
- No, no! I’m sorry, haha. - My apologies.
- I’m sorry. - Shinhye is really thrown off right now.
- She's an introvert.

[It’s still hard to act out scenarios]
I slipped into it without realizing it. [Apologizing for the scenario]
I’m sorry. [Apologizing for not getting it]
I’m sorry. [Awkward]
Please continue...

But all my friends are like that. We set the time for leaving, and we party hard until that time. Or we meet at someone’s house. I like gathering at home. So when you meet at home, do you have pajama parties? 

No, even then, we set a time! Around 1 a.m., everyone heads home. Now, many of my friends are married. Right, these days... Even if we want to stay up late, it's not so easy anymore. 

We can't. We all prefer sleeping in our own homes. - Sleeping at home is more comfortable. - Yes, exactly! It's nice being with friends, but no matter what, a friend's house is still someone else’s house. 

I’ve mentioned this before, but until my early 20s, I really liked sleeping at other people's houses. Oh, it feels like going on a trip. It feels like a trip. 

I liked other people's houses more than my own. The side dishes are different. And it feels freer than my own house. More free! So, I really enjoyed sleeping at other people's houses. 

Since you lived with your parents, I guess that’s why you liked it. Yeah, that’s right. I think I had a huge craving for that freedom back then. - I totally understand that feeling. - You know what I mean? 

I felt the same when I lived with my parents. After spending energy outside,
you want to rest at home, but there are still family members at home. So, there’s no personal space. I've lived alone for a long time. [Played the role of 'the other' in other's houses]
A lot of friends came to my place.

But after I moved out and started living alone, friends started visiting my place a lot. Because you could feel a sense of warmth
from having people around. [Mutual benefit]
It’s nice to invite people over. In my early 20s, I was like that,
but at some point,

I started thinking,
'Sleeping at home is more comfortable.' It seems to be based on experience. After sleeping at a friend's house so much, it doesn’t even feel like I slept. Especially in the morning! The night is fine.

[That slightly uncomfortable feeling?] - After waking up.
- After waking up, it feels a bit awkward. After all, home is the most comfortable. I love going on trips, But I’d prefer to come home to sleep,
then head back out for the trip.

Huh? Oh... But that’s just how I feel! You know? [What is this synchronization?]
I think I understand. [Shinhye gets it too]
You know what I mean? For example, you go to a hotel or a resort

and you enjoy everything there. - The hotel bedding is great, too.
- It's clean and nice! - But it’s not comfortable.
- But the pillow and blanket. - Yes, when you lie on the mattress
- The feel of it.

- that feeling is...
- That's exactly it. [Ah...]
Home is much more comfortable. It's clear that preferences differ! I think sleeping in new environments
keeps adding to your experience points. [When the filming location is far]
If the location is far, 

[Sometimes you stay over the night before]
you stay over the night before. Have a nice dinner there, - and check in.
- That’s what Joseph does. [He even enjoys his hobbies]
I love going to the sauna. [Respecting different preferences]
That’s understandable, yeah. 

So, when I go somewhere if I’m staying for more than a night, I bring my own pillow. [Synchronized ON] My own pillow? - It makes things more bearable.
- I totally get it! [Highest synchronization ever
in mini Pinggyego history] 

- It’s much better that way.
- Exactly. [You don’t need to explain much to be understood]
It fits my neck angle perfectly, right? [Shared understanding among people who get it]
It’s optimized for my neck. I also bring my own pajamas. 

[Flinch] You and I are similar in that way, Shinhye. I also need to wear [Precious]
the pajamas I always sleep in. - I can’t sleep in just a robe.
- Me too! For example, after taking a shower, 

wearing a robe for a bit is fine. - But to sleep, I need my pajamas!
- Exactly. And no matter how cold it is,
I have to stick my feet out of the blanket. Unless it’s cold enough to get frostbite. 

[Knows what he's talking about] - Oh, that's new information.
- You get it? Do you get it?? Unless I'm going to get frostbite, I have to stick my feet out a bit. You need cool feet to fall asleep.

I tuck the blanket halfway under... [Two people in sync, it's fascinating]
Right, I need to stick them out a bit. Everyone has their own style. Do you bring a comfort object? I don't have a comfort object.

I don't either. [Sae-ho's comfort object story]
I do have a stuffed pig. A long-time friend gave it to me for my birthday. Back then, it was popular to give
'useless gifts.' [Giving useless gifts: A trend
where friends give pointless things as a joke]

They'd give the most useless gift in the world. Like, "What is this?"
And I'd say, "What's this for?" I received a stuffed pig with a real pig
printed on it. At first, I was going to throw it away
since it was so useless.
