Covering stories of people all around the world, Human Story. [Amazed] What... what is this place?

[Staff 2]
This is the dining room. [Amazed] Wow, this... [Hahahaha]

Ah, this person is bin Salman (must be). Yes, he is bin Salman. Oh, they look alike.

Well yes, they share the same grandfather. The Saudi prince we're meeting now, since I heard that there are a lot of princes in Saudi Arabia,

Can you tell me how royal he is? The father of the current king is the first king of the country,

so that makes the prince the first king's grandson. He's very close with the current king too.

There aren't many princes who can be called the Royal Highness. So that's the highest rank?

Yes, that's what I heard. The prince we're meeting now is the Royal Highness.

[Staff]
This person is the prince's grandfather. I think this is one of his houses.

[Admire] Is that person in the frame on the right the prince? Yes. So the main house must be much larger than this.

He has dozens of buildings like this one. - After he opens the front gate and goes in, - Yes.

He uses a car to move around his house. [In front of the prince's house gate]

- This is the front gate?
- Yes. - So this is his house?
- Yes.

And is this the inside of the house? We have to go in much further to get inside.

In this way, huh? (House is) filled with the sea. This is seawater, right?

It's connected to the port. From what I see, this place is so large that I have to call it a castle rather than a house.

The wall at the side is gigantic as well. There's a beach over there. Wow, the beach is there, haha.

You could say it's a private seawater swimming pool. - Do you swim here?
- Yes.

He says he even swims here. [Staff]
We dock our yachts here. I've never seen a house that has a beach inside.

The level of dishes we're eating right now looks like the level of royal families' meals. We arrived in Saudi Arabia yesterday,

The prince has reserved the Hilton hotel for us, and we spent a night there. We couldn't meet him yesterday, since he said he was busy.

So we're going to meet him today. I don't know if I can film his daily life,

but I'm planning on filming his routine. We also have a director next to us, who will do the translation and also introduce the prince.

We will introduce him to you first, and then head off immediately. The prince's staff is here, right?

[Kang Yo-Han]
Yes, since the driver has arrived... Then, introduce yourself briefly (please).

Hello, I am Kang Yo-Han, who's currently doing business in Korea. Where are we in Saudi Arabia?

We're in a city called Jeddah; it's where a lot of tourists come. It's also the prince's hometown.

[Honk] [Honk] It was a Range Rover when he first came to pick us up at the airport.

Are there multiple cars? I don't know; I remember there were about 30 cars at his house.

(At the house) There are cars lined up like this. Like this parking lot here.

(Is that person) a staff member of the prince? Yes, he's a driver. - He's one of the drivers.
- Ah...

If you look at it now,
I don't think there are many tourists. We arrived at the Saudi Arabia airport yesterday,

then we came to the hotel at midnight, took a nap, and today, we promised to meet (the prince).

I thought we were going to
meet him early in the morning. Now it's about 7 PM here,

It's a little after 7,
and they say he wakes up around this time. That's because it's Ramadan.

Can you briefly explain what Ramadan is? It's a period of fasting in Islam, lasting about a month.

It's like Lent
in the Christian religion. So Ramadan is the name of a
religious fasting period?

Yes. (During Ramadan)
You can't eat or drink except
after 5:30 PM,

and you can't eat or drink until 6:30 AM. Are we heading to the prince's house now?

Or are we going somewhere else? I'm not quite sure. I don't know whether he called us
to his house or somewhere else.

Right now, our driver doesn't speak English. Ah, then we're currently going wherever the driver is taking us?
- That's right.

The Saudi prince we're meeting, since I heard there are many
princes in Saudi Arabia,

can you tell me how high-ranking he is? Saudi Arabia is a really big country. It's huge, and it has
about 35 million people.

Saudi Arabia means it's a kingdom of the Saudi family. Saud is short for Al Saud, and it's a family name.

So in Korean, it's similar to... Kim? ....yes, it's similar to Kim,
so it would be like the Kingdom of the Kim family.

Ah. That's what Saudi Arabia means. There aren't many princes who have Al Saud as their family name or last name.

It's for those such as the father or brothers of the current king. The father of the current king is the first king of the country.

This Saudi Arabian history is less than a century. So he's the son of a brother of the father of the current king.

- Ah, grandson, I mean grandson.
- Grandson. (So the prince is)
The prince is the first king's grandson.

He's very close to the current king, too. There are a lot of ways to call a prince,

there's Sheikh and other numerous names. I don't remember the exact word, but there aren't many princes who can be called Royal Highness.

So that's the highest rank? Yes, that's what I heard. The prince we're meeting now is Royal Highness.

He is of high rank, having the name Al Saud. If you go to the history museum, there is the genealogy of royals and nobles.

The prince once pointed at that, like this, and told me that he's on there. At the capital, there's a UNESCO-registered museum.

He pointed to his name there, and he was pretty close to the king. There were hundreds of people, and the king was here and the prince was here.

So he would be a first cousin twice removed from the current King bin Salman. Ah, oh!

- Is he the prince?
- No, he's not the prince; he's just another staff member.

Oh, there's a Bentley, Rolls-Royce. Oh, it seems to be a good restaurant, right?

As-salāmu ʿalaykum. As-salāmu ʿalaykum.

Hello. It feels like a good place. - Yeah.
- Right. Wow, this is...

[Laughter] [Amazed] Wait, this... Are all restaurants like this? Of course not.

You shouldn't think of this as the life of a normal Saudi citizen. This is the life of a prince.

Ah, they say the prince is at home. Does he want us to have a meal before we arrive?

[Laughter] Yes, that's right. - Is it a buffet?
- Yes.

[Kang Yo-Han]
Right, understood. - Let's eat dinner.
- Yes, yes.

I think he wants us to eat before we arrive, so he reserved a restaurant like this for us.

After eating here,
are we going to the prince's place? Yes, I think so. Actually, I'm not sure.

It starts from there... - Did someone get married today?
- Well, this is where all the men who
came to the wedding are gathering.

All the women meet somewhere else. You can't come here with a person of the opposite gender.

That's how the royal family does it, but I don't know about normal people. Can we try camel meat here?

[Laughter] I heard that it's here. There is a camel there, isn't it?
It's here.

- What's this?
- It's lamb. - Is it halal?
- Yes. Ah, halal.

Lemon, olives,
and nuts. Enjoy. There are a variety of foods here,
so let's try a little of everything.

Right, right. Kafta (beef) is what
Middle Eastern people eat a lot.

And there are many versions of it. There are different types of kafta, too.

It's like a hotel buffet, don't you think? Oh, a hotel buffet? Don't you think we should eat some rice, though?

What is this? [Amazed] - It's finished.
- Finished? Finished? Ah, okay.

Didn't the lady who cooks for the prince commute to work today? He doesn't just have a lady; he has a whole team of cooks.

- Hello.
- Welcome. [Kang Yo-Han]
Give us two. - Do you like dim sum?
- I love it.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome. Is he a prince too? No, he's not.

A little bit. Just a little bit. That's too much. - This is like Japchae in Korea.
- Thank you.

Thank you. - Thank you.
- Thank you. So this place must be where Saudi Arabian princes usually go, right?

Ah, but the prince loves burgers the most. [Hahaha] When we have a meal together, we go to places like McDonald's.

Since he heard that we came from Korea, I think he didn't know what we would like, so he just reserved a buffet for us.

So we can eat whatever we want. Enjoy your meal. - I will.
- Right. Oh.

- Is it good?
- Yes. I wasn't too excited about this, but it's good.

- Try this dim sum first.
- Okay. Good? [Staff]
Good. - Have you finished?
- Yes, yes.

- Who paid for this?
- I think the prince's staff did. The staff?

Bye-bye. So are we now going to the prince's house? I think so.

I also heard that this prince has his own private plane. Does he really have that? - Yes, actually he has several.
- Ah, several.

This route is a first for me, too. He opens the gate for us. - Hello.
- As-salamu alaykum.

Is this the correct way to say hello? - Yes, as-salamu alaykum...
- Right.

- You have to pronounce it "kum", not "kkum"
- Kum. Huh? It's here.

How do you know? There's another member of the prince's staff. - Ah, you mean him.
- Yes.

Is this place the prince's vacation house? I'm not sure, since this is my first time here, too.

Is there anything I should know before we go in? Um... - Just don't talk about alcohol and women.
- Ah.

Oh, as-salamu alaykum.
- Yeah. He is praying.

[Hahahahaha] [Hahaha] - How have you been?
- As-salamu alaykum

- Hi.
- Ah. - Prince?
- Yes. (To the viewers)
Say hi.

Please say hi to them, Prince. [Hahahahaha] There are VIPs here, so we couldn't film this before.
(The house) looks like this.
