(Jun Ha's Grand Award Project is how it all started.)
(They had made...)
(a random project choosing machine.)
I'll start.
(Kwang Hee's ball chose a project...)
(to be cast in an American TV show.)
(Taken aback)
(He is forced to enter Hollywood all of a sudden.)
- He could appear in American show. - He could become a Hollywood star.
- The score is... - Because he is...
(A week later)
- Hello. - Hello.
We're going to have a special guest today.
- Why? - American shows.
- Oh, my. - We need to see if it's possible.
There's someone who is currently acting in America.
- We need an expert. - Really? There's someone like that?
- Come out. - A Hollywood star?
- Yes, a Hollywood star. - Who?
- Bae Doo Na. - Doo Na Bae.
- Bae Doo Na. - Hello.
(She entered Hollywood with the movie,)
("Cloud Atlas".)
(She played an important role among famous actors like Tom Hanks.)
(After that, she appeared in an American series, "Sense8".)
(Bae Doo Na is working actively in Hollywood.)
- Hello. - Hello.
- Hello. - Bae Doo Na.
- How have you been? - Oh, my.
- Hello. - She's a world-famous star.
- Hello. - It's great to have her here.
- Doo Na, come sit here. - Oh, my.
- Bae Doo Na. - Gosh.
- It's so nice to see you. - You smell of America.
- You smell of America. - She does.
She has a different smell.
My hands smell of Hollywood.
- Oh, my. - It's true.
- Have a seat. - Have a seat.
- This is an Italian smell. - Italian? I'm sorry.
In fact, we've asked you to come because...
we asked the viewers to suggest projects we could do,
and one of them was to be cast in American shows.
Right.
As everyone knows so well,
Doo Na has appeared on a movie by the Wachowskis.
"Cloud Atlas".
- That's your first Hollywood movie? - Yes.
- That's my first American project. - That's so cool.
- I'm doing "Sense8" now. - "Sense8".
- It's an American series. - Is it being broadcast right now?
No, it's going to be broadcast in May.
- How did you know? - I read it on an article.
- It's season... - You were interested.
- You were interested. - Were you preparing?
- You must have been preparing. - We wanted to...
- ask you for your advice. - Yes.
Did you take auditions?
Yes, I took an audition for...
my first Hollywood movie, "Cloud Atlas".
And I took many more after that.
It's good to have a lot of experience.
- So you take auditions constantly? - Yes, I take a lot of auditions.
Is the audition process different from ones in Korea?
- Is it different in Hollywood? - What is it like?
I was really curious.
There's an occupation...
called casting director.
When they recruit actors for roles,
you need to make a self-tape.
- Self tape. - You need to make one.
You can make one at home. I could make one with my cellphone.
Just like that?
- Yes, we do that every time. - How did you make yours?
- My brother helps me make them. - Really?
At first, I was lucky.
- The director contacted me first. - The director did?
- Yes, he contacted me directly. - In that case,
if he contacted you directly, weren't you surprised?
- Do you answer unknown callers? - He didn't call me like that.
- How would he call her? - It wasn't like that.
- He wouldn't call her like that. - He must have seen your work.
Yes.
Did he call you and say, "This is Wachowski"?
- At first... - "This is Wachowski"?
- "This is Wachowski"? - It must have been a video call.
- This is Wachowski. - This is Wachowski.
- They say that. - Yes, they do say that.
- Didn't you know? They say that. - They do that nowadays.
That's right. That's right.
You can roughly tell if he could succeed or not as an actor.
You have a feeling, right?
Can you tell us if he looks like he can be a Hollywood star?
- Or should he give up? - If he gets cast, what would he do?
- You shouldn't give up. - Do you think he'll make it?
Doo Na said he shouldn't give up.
- That's important. - Yes.
But if he doesn't give up, he'll need time to prepare.
- I need to study English. - It's important...
for the time being.
But it's not the most important thing.
It's about being confident.
- Yes. - And strong will.
Once I had to act...
as a middle aged Mexican woman.
- You did? - But you're not Mexican.
(Bae Doo Na disguised as a Mexican woman.)
(She spoke Spanish really fast...)
(as if it were her mother tongue.)
(She acted naturally as well.)
- But I couldn't speak Spanish. - Yes.
So I took the audition in Korean.
I really wanted the part.
I acted like I was upset while speaking in Korean.
- You wanted to show your acting. - Yes.
I told them I'll memorize everything if they give me the part.
- I told them that. - Oh, my.
I told them I even played table tennis with my left hand for a part.
- I told them that myself. - So that...
- you can show your confidence. - Yes.
It's important to try to make them want to work with you.
- Yes. - So that is one of...
- You can't be nervous. - Do you need a special skill?
It could be good to have one because...
the self-tapes are more important than you think.
Normally, people would think that final auditions are more important.
But I think what you do there leaves a great impression on the directors.
- Someone told me about that. - I'm telling you...
because I just remembered something.
When I was acting in "Sense8", one actor...
must have recorded a self-tape of himself...
talking about his recent worries.
And the director remembered the actor by his self-tape.
- That's how you do it. - You need a special point.
- Yes, you need a certain point. - There are a lot of self-tapes,
so it's important that you make it memorable.
- We need to have worries in life. - That's what we need.
I should do that. You know the thing I posted on social media recently?
- The one with the grape. - Yes, grape.
- That was so cool. - I can eat a whole grape at once.
- Yes, something like that. - What is that?
- You should tape yourself eating. - He takes a grape...
- Something like this. - and he puts it in his mouth.
He did it on our Tough Guy Special.
- That person over there... - Yes?
is the casting director for "Sense8".
(The Casting Director of "Sense8")
- She looks surprised. - You should introduce yourself.
What do you think of this as a casting director?
Director, you should take a look. We could send it as the self-tape.
(Gosh)
She must really like it.
- Isn't it decent? - It will be really memorable.
- Really? - She was really surprised.
- I should send this. - She said "Gosh".
- It'll leave a strong impact. - You must think it's funny.
- See? - See?
I really think he could make it.
- Who would have such skills? - No one.
- It's not easy. - No.
We should take about five videos of him eating.
- That would be the start. - He'd start confidently by eating.
- Finish. - Say "Please call me," and finish.
(I like it.)
Thank you for your time and help, Doo Na.
- Thank you, Doo Na. - Thank you.
(Afterwards, the crew sent the members' profiles to America...)
(before making their self-tapes.)
(Sangam MBC)
(The members gather around after filming an episode.)
(What is going on?)
Why are we here?
For the challenge of appearing in an American TV show,
we put together profiles of everyone including Jun Ha's. We included...
projects that you acted in and sent them to the Hollywood producers...
- and casting directors in the US. - You sent our profiles?
- You never even discussed this. - Why?
- I never gave you a permission. - I don't...
- want to be on an American TV show. - Me neither.
But to us, all of you are valuable.
- I'd like to show you all off. - You can talk.
- You're lying. - And yet, is this how you treat us?
We embellished your profiles when we sent them.
- Some of them seem interested. - Really?
How did you embellish us? What did you say about us?
We wrote Jae Seok is the best host in Korea, president of variety...
shows, and a role model even celebrities look up to.
But that's true.
- That's right. - You didn't embellish then.
We wrote Myeong Soo is Korea's Charlie Chaplin who can pantomime.
- After hearing it... - That's true.
To a certain point, it is.
It's not completely false.
I can do it a little bit.
But you always said...
that you'd like to become Korea's Charlie Chaplin.
- Yes. It's not a complete lie. - From time to time,
- he does the pantomime. - Yes, he does.
(When he was low on special skills, he showed pantomime acts.)
(Myeong Soo can do many pantomime acts.)
- He can do pantomime. - Some dream of being comedians...
as they watch Myeong Soo.
- Really? - I'm serious.
Wait, something's on your face.
What is it? What did you just do?
No, it's just that you had something on your face.
- What is that? - There he goes again.
He's going to throw that now.
- Next up is taking out his eyes. - Yes, take out your eyes.
- My eyes? - This one.
(Popping)
I can just do this when I get to the States?
I told them you had some special skills...
and sent a lot of information.
- Why do I feel embarrassed? - Exactly.
- Our special talents are... - What did you say about Jun Ha?
We wrote that Jun Ha can act both on funny and serious shows...
- and that he's Korea's Jack Black. - No way.
- Your profile sounds somewhat true. - Korea's Jack Black?
(He strengthened his acting skills on "Highkick!", a funny sitcom.)
(He managed to act skillfully on dramas as well.)
(He's a well-rounded actor who even played an active role in musicals.)
- Goodness. - You can act though.
We wrote Haha is a sexy, well-rounded entertainer...
and that you are Korea's Justin Timberlake.
- How can he be Justin Timberlake? - I'm a nobody.
Isn't he just an entertainer?
- What about Se Hyeong? - We wrote that...
Se Hyeong is the best stand-up comedian and Korea's Chris Rock.
- Chris Rock? - Who is Chris Rock?
(He's a superstar of stand-up comedy in the US.)
(Chris Rock was the host of 2016 Oscars.)
Some agencies that received your profiles showed interest.
- Really? - They told us that...
they'd like to get your self-tapes.
Because they are looking for actors for various roles,
- they need actors who speak Korean. - Those roles?
That's right. They'd need Koreans.
(The demand for Korean actors is, in fact, pretty high.)
One of the agencies answered our letter.
- Do you know "House of Cards"? - Yes, I do!
- They'd let you audition for it. - "House of Cards"?
(It's a political drama that is set in Washington, D.C.)
(With an elaborate plot and unique directing,)
(the drama gained attention in Korea as well.)
How many seasons are there now?
There are five seasons now.
There are 5 seasons, and it's one of the most popular shows in the US.
The show is about a politician. Now, the main character is the President.
- Why am I nervous now? - But a director from such a show...
would focus on the acting skills.
- Well, Jun Ha can do it though. - No.
If you do well, it's possible, isn't it?
- You are the best actor here. - That's right.
Although the language is different, they'll know if you're good or not.
- That's right. - They'll know.
This is possible, Jun Ha.
What kind of self-tape...
do I have to send?
- Goodness. - What do I have to do in the tape?
Oh, my.
- What are you going to do? - I got something to worry about.
- Exactly. - What do I do in my self-tape?
Jae Seok can impersonate Tilda Swinton.
Gosh, are you serious?
I'm telling you. You and she look really alike.
If you disguised as Tilda Swinton...
No, I don't resemble Tilda Swinton.
I bet Se Hyeong has a lot of things he can do.
Do the finger flick. You are good at it.
That's right. You can show them the finger flick.
- I can break a watermelon with it. - That's right.
- But can you do break a watermelon? - This is nice.
I should cut it beforehand.
I bet he can even break a walnut.
- I should get an expert and film. - This is driving me crazy.
- Let's go. - Goodness.
Okay!
(They set out to make their self-tapes.)
(Hollywood Special)
(Yeouido MBC)
Right here! I'm right here!
(Myeong Soo called an expert to film his self-tape.)
Come here. Goodness.
(Acting playful)
Don't do this. It's immature.
Go park over there. Park your car there.
Over there.
Goodness, I think I might've called the wrong guy.
Gosh.
Yes, I can.
(Producer Kkwang)
(He's Hong Sang Soo of fishing.)
(He's an expert in directing on the spot.)
- I like you. - Just trust me, Myeong Soo.
(Their teamwork was the best on "All Broadcasting in the World".)
- Is the camera working? - Yes, it is.
I don't know what this is about.
- What are we doing? - I'll film it with this camera.
- Tell me what's going on. - So I'm going to...
- the US for an audition. - To the US?
I have to introduce myself to the casting directors in the US.
- So do you know the film, "Taken"? - Yes. I've seen it.
Liam Neeson stars in the film.
(A former special agent rescues his abducted daughter in the film.)
(With this film, Myeong Soo can show he can convey fatherly love...)
(through his facial expressions and that he can film action scenes.)
I'm going to copy Liam Neeson.
If you film it and give me the clip after editing it...
No one knows what happens in life.
Out of all the actors, why did you choose him?
Since I'm pretty low-pitched...
"I don't know who you are."
"I don't know where you're at, but I will find you..."
"and I will kill you." I can do this though.
- Don't get your hopes up though. - I don't expect much from it.
As a father who's raising a daughter,
I will become Liam Neeson.
First off, this is a reckless challenge,
but let's give this a shot.
- Okay. - I got it.
Then I will come up with the rest.
For villains,
I'll get some scary-looking cameramen.
What about him? Hey.
No Chun, come here.
- He's perfect. He looks scary. - Come here.
- He's perfect. - Goodness.
- No Chun. - Your looks are perfect.
I like it.
We will need him and... Hold on.
I like your looks.
- Come on. Do this for me. - He's selected.
The only actor that I know...
is Jeong Nam.
I think that would be enough.
- Myeong Soo. - Wait. He's here.
- That's Jeong Nam. - Goodness.
(He played a villain in "The Berlin File" and "The Sheriff in Town".)
- It's nice to meet you here. - It's nice to meet you.
Goodness, you are handsome. You look better in person.
- Let's do this, Myeong Soo. - Thank you so much.
- Victory! Yes, I can. - Victory! Yes, I can.
Doesn't this look cool?
- We'll film here. - Okay.
- Can you film here? - Okay.
- Let's try this. - I'll shoot here.
I'm going to film a scene with him first.
Myeong Soo isn't going to come from here.
He'll come from afar.
You have to look nervous because a dangerous man just came here.
Look scary.
I'll just film your facial expression.
In 1, 2, 3. Action.
(Creaking)
Okay.
(Excuse me?)
- That was good? - Yes. Sit down.
(His directing skill seems complex.)
Do what I told you before.
- Give him a line like "Who is he?". - Do it again. It's too fast.
In 1, 2, 3. Action.
What?
Okay. That was good.
(What?)
(Nothing can be seen as a mistake for him.)
- That was good? - Let me see.
- Look. - Look at how you acted.
(Everyone gathers in front of a small LCD.)
He can't do better than this.
(All it takes is just one shot.)
- Two of you... - You should be sitting down.
Okay. We are going to start from here.
You have to walk in and beat them up.
Move back a bit.
When you raise your arm to shoot me, I'll hit you.
- Did you get that? - After that, I will enter.
- You know your positions, right? - Okay.
All right.
Look scary.
In 1, 2, 3. Action.
(Action!)
(With one hit, he passes out.)
(I'm dead.)
How can you smile when you die?
Don't smile. Would you smile when you die?
Are you the funeral director?
We're done with the scene.
(Producer Kkwang approves the scene unconditionally.)
Goodness, he approves everything.
Okay. Then can I enter now?
- I have to go that way. - Stay down.
I'll be here.
Okay. Try it. Action.
In 1, 2, 3. Action.
Who are you?
I'm Liam Neeson.
(Shooting)
Die.
(He's dead.)
My daughter.
Okay.
- Get up. - Are we doing this right?
You did the best in this scene.
- Was it good? - Yes.
(He sounds confident.)
Goodness.
- Is it over? - Yes.
It's over, isn't it?
- Really? - Yes.
The director said it's over.
But you're really going to send this to Hollywood?
Yes, we are going to send this to Hollywood.
- Really? - You might not see him anymore.
- He might debut in Hollywood. - What?
- Filming a movie is easy with him. - Let's have a meal.
Is it supposed to be this easy?
Let's go and get something to eat.
Okay.
(A man in a black suit walks looking determined.)
(Is he Choi Min Sik of "Oldboy"?)
This is it.
(He comes with his agent who will film his self-tape.)
The reason I chose "Oldboy" is...
because this scene left a strong impression on foreigners.
Jun Ha and Myeong Soo leave an impression with their looks.
As for me... It just might be that it's not consistent,
but I look pretty good a lot of times.
It's possible the casting directors might think my looks are too plain,
but I have to get the role with my acting skills.
(It's about a revenge of a man who's been locked up for 15 years.)
(This scene left an intense impression on the audience.)
(It's the scene he's talking to a mysterious man on the phone.)
(Checking his voice)
Who are you?
Action.
Get me a small octopus.
Who are you?
I miss you. Hurry.
Cut. I'm sorry.
Who are you?
(He continues filming as he composes himself.)
You hypnotized me there, didn't you?
Let me see.
(He checks the footages himself.)
(Laughing)
(Laughing in secret)
I look like Po Bi.
What is this?
This doesn't look like the film. It looks like I'm fooling around.
I keep imagining myself because I saw I looked like Po Bi.
This doesn't look like the film. I look like I'm joking.
This is supposed to be serious, but it looks like a funny parody.
(So the film he chose this time is...)
We are going to film a scene from "Dunkirk".
- Got it? - Yes.
(The scene of the battle in the air between pilots was impressive.)
- We're shooting the flying scene. - Okay.
I'm starting now.
(Clacking)
Hello. Please stay balanced.
Ready to go.
(He gets on a plane for kids.)
(Even a cute song is provided.)
(Have a good flight.)
(Shooting missiles)
(He stays calm and serious.)
(Crowing)
(These animal sounds help the kids develop their sentiment.)
Hey. this...
(Now, there are animal noises?)
(Moving back and forth)
(Even the agent feels embarrassed.)
(The song is almost as moving as the one in the film.)
Hey, can't you turn off the song?
Why does it keep playing the song?
(He can't get into character.)
- Forget about the sound. - Okay.
(The sweltering sun...)
(and the cute song torment him.)
(His thick jacket makes him feel hotter.)
What's the altitude?
(Crowing)
That rooster sound is driving me crazy.
The song is draining my energy.
I'd like the help of the crew.
(They deactivate the airplane.)
(A member of crew shakes the airplane.)
3, 2, 1. Now!
(Launching missiles)
(Screaming)
The fuel gauge broke down.
Shouldn't we return?
(His poor acting distracts Haha again.)
Yes, I'd like to return.
I want to return. I want to go back!
(Can Haha...)
(finish filming his self-tape?)
(This member is putting on makeup.)
(He's showing off his cherry-red lips...)
(and an attractive posture.)
(This is Jae Seok...)
(who resembles Tilda Swinton.)
I'm done.
"A hat belongs on your head."
"A hat belongs on your head. A shoe belongs..."
"on your foot."
(The film is about a train carrying survivors in a frozen world.)
(This is the Tilda Swinton.)
"I belong on the head. You belong on the foot."
- "Yes? So it is." - In the beginning...
Let's go.
(The quiet yet threatening tone of voice is the key.)
I belong on the head.
(Falling)
It fell.
(Picking it up)
I belong on the head. Wait. I pointed to the side.
(Placing it gently)
I'm sorry. Let me do it again.
(Can he finish?)
(He feels something is lacking.)
(He decides to do one more film.)
(What's up with him? He looks like her too.)
- Does my hair look okay? - Yes.
I'm going to start.
(This time,)
(he's going to cry on camera.)
(It's about a black guy trying to get out of house of a white family.)
(He gets into the role too much.)
(When he can't seem to cry,)
(he uses a trick.)
No, no, no, no, no.
(No one in Hollywood has Jae Seok's structure of mouth.)
(You have to pass me at the audition.)
Start from here. Right here.
- When you move it up, I'll talk. - Okay.
Try it.
(He starts filming.)
Let me introduce myself.
My name is Yang Se Hyeong.
Hey, I'm a hero of Korea.
I'm not Superman.
I'm not Batman.
I'm Finger Flick Man.
(His talent is to film the self-tapes himself.)
- 1, 2. Left, right, - 1, 2. Left, right,
- and left. - Stand in the back.
- Left. - Stand in the front.
Stop where you are.
- 1, 2. - Okay.
(I'm going to show you the power of my finger flick.).
(He's honored.)
(Catching)
(At his gesture, a banana is thrown.)
(What is going on?)
(Watch how strong Finger Flick Man is.)
(He cuts the banana in half perfectly.)
(He tries breaking a walnut which is harder than a banana.)
(Will his finger break first? Or will the walnut?)
(Smashing)
(Shattered)
(With one flick, the walnut is crushed.)
(He's the almighty Finger Flick Man!)
(This time, he tries breaking a watermelon.)
(Flicking)
- What's up? - What's up?
What's going on?
- Finger Flick Man! - You can do it!
- Shut it. - Finger Flick Man.
- Finger Flick Man. - I'm Finger Flick Man!
(Flicking)
(Darn it.)
Finger Flick Man.
(He kneels down as he struggles.)
- Finger Flick Man. - Finger Flick Man.
- Oh, my goodness. - This isn't working.
Should I make a hole?
- Should I make it bigger? - Yes.
I think so too.
I almost broke my finger.
- Goodness. The watermelon is hard. - Did you get it?
Gosh.
Hello.
Film it well. I'm going to send this to the US.
Hello. I'm Jung Jun Ha.
A little about me. I can't feel any physical pain.
Pain?
Physical pain?
What's that?
(He puts clothespin on his nose.)
Hold on. Wait.
(He stops filming right away.)
Why did you bring one that hurts so much?
(Giggling)
Hey, you should try it on your skin too.
I can put one on.
This doesn't hurt?
It's fine.
(He doesn't feel the pain.)
(Feeling awkward)
Let's do it again. Let's do it.
(A clothespin is under his chin.)
You should try this part.
(It doesn't hurt.)
(In pain)
(His sudden attack makes his legs feel weak.)
It doesn't hurt.
(He can't continue with his skit.)
I can eat this without tasting the sourness.
Okay.
(He eats a whole lemon.)
(I can't taste the sourness.)
(He eats and eats.)
This is so sweet.
I want to eat more.
(Will Jun Ha's self-tape leave a strong impression?)
(He shows his charm by presenting his skill as an eater.)
(He might have a big build, but he's still lovable.)
(Jun Ha is even charismatic.)
(He's Tilda Swinton of Korea.)
(Jae Seok can play any roles which makes him a perfect candidate.)
(He's a good musician...)
(as well as a good actor.)
(These 5 are full of unpredictable charms.)
(And speaking English is given.)
I've got many talents.
For example...
(Croaking)
You, die!
(Shooting)
(They included...)
(their various charms...)
(and their sincere hearts in their self-tapes.)
(They finish filming the tapes.)
(Incheon)
(At last, they sent the videos to the US.)
(Sangam MBC on August 6)
- Viewers, hello. - Hi.
- Infinite Challenge! - Challenge!
You all know where we are, don't you?
- This was in the film, "Avengers". - That's right.
When we go abroad, we do the opening segment at the airport.
Since it's the peak season for summer trips,
- the airport is packed. - It's packed.
It's packed.
- That's right. - We don't want to cause trouble.
Of course. That was a nice thing to say.
- Good job. - Don't mention it.
This is how he is on his other show.
- Well... - Is he a guest celebrity?
- Sorry? - Is he here as a guest?
No, that's you. You're here as a guest.
Whether we're in Korea or abroad,
- we appreciate you helping us out. - Of course.
- I'm serious. - Do you get paid?
I have my own contract with the team.
- I do get paid. - Of course.
The show should pay you.
Jun Ha has bad memories when it comes to the States.
I can't hear you because of the cicadas.
Anyway, I'm sure...
you all know why we're going to the States.
The staff sent over our audition tapes,
and we got a reply from overseas.
Really?
I have no idea why they want to meet us though.
- This is because they approved. - Exactly.
- I don't understand. - Why else would we be going?
- What on earth is going on? - We didn't pass any auditions.
They just want to meet us, right?
We're going there to audition?
We recorded our audition tapes based on Doo Na's pointers.
- Did you practice your lines? - Why would I?
I didn't practice at all.
(But the truth is...)
(He practiced his lines until last night.)
(He's reciting Kevin Spacey's lines from "House of Cards".)
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
(Se Hyeong practices in a suit.)
(He adds extravagant hand gestures.)
(Even his belly fat is acting in the scene.)
"That's right. It's always welcome."
(Is this Dan from "Begin Again"?)
(In the middle of the night, he acts like the man of the hour.)
"Welcome to Washington."
It's tricky.
I can't seem to get this part right.
(He knows it too.)
I had to practice late after everyone had gone to bed.
I had a hard time due to pronunciation.
"President-elect."
Did you practice lines from "House of Cards"?
- "President-elect." - I did too.
- "President-elect." - Pennsyl-virginia.
- Hey. - I couldn't pronounce it.
- Isn't it Pennsylvania? - What did you say?
Pennsylvania and Virginia are two different places.
Where on earth is Pennsyl-virginia?
- You... - Did you mean Virginia State?
- Pennsylvania. - You only have to know L.A.
- Is it Pennsylvania? - Yes.
Then I blame the translator.
- Did it say Pennsyl-virginia? - Yes, that's what...
it said in the script.
Then let's go and find Pennsyl-virginia.
I'm sorry.
- It's Pennsylvania. - Of course it is.
Now it's time for us to head to L.A.
- Los Angeles. - Luckily for us,
we get to visit the city every year.
We went around this time last year.
It's been a year since you've joined us.
- Hang on. - That's right.
We didn't throw you a party.
I've been with the show for 12 years.
- He's a member but you're not. - Is he?
Anyway, let's now head to Los Angeles...
and get on with our actual auditions.
We'll soon see you in LA.
- Infinite Challenge. - Challenge.
- Let's go. - Let's go!
- I'm sweating. - I'm sweating like a pig.
(Shortly...)
(Jack, what are you doing here?)
(He acts even with the tip of his fingers.)
(Welcome to America!)
Stop it. I've had enough already.
(Incheon International Airport)
You're bringing a lot with you.
I'll need a lot of clothes for the audition.
Look how packed the airport is.
My gosh.
It's the holidays and the season for vacations.
Students are on summer break.
This is us.
Hello. We need to show our passports.
Hello. Are you heading to Los Angeles today?
That's right.
- It says "Yu Jae Seok and Friends". - "Friends and Those Older".
(It's a new challenge.)
(They're excited to be invited.)
(To show them what he has practiced,)
(he keeps practicing.)
(Se Hyeong does too, but only for a short while.)
(Myeong Soo went to sleep early.)
(A luxurious in-flight meal)
(They energize themselves with Korean food.)
(Yummy)
(They watch American TV series when they can.)
(They relax in order to be in their best condition.)
(Jun Ha is pretty excited about this opportunity.)
(I need a good night's rest.)
(The night owls wake up and study through the night.)
(After 11 hours in the sky)
(Incheon)
(They arrive in the city of opportunities.)
Is this it?
(He's excited.)
- We're... - We're here in Los Angeles.
This is nice.
(The city that all actors dream of)
(The movie city that embraces Hollywood.)
(It's where the Academy Awards take place.)
(The entire city is a movie set of its own.)
We won't be here long...
which means that we'll go back by the time we adjust.
I know.
Why did you say "I'm sorry" at the immigration counter?
- I wanted him to pity me. - How many times did you say it?
About five times.
I said "I'm sorry" four times and then "I'm so sorry" at the end.
- That's it. - "I'm so sorry"?
He couldn't understand me.
So tell us about our schedule.
There's a place where you'll be heading today.
Do the auditions start right away?
Yes, you have one for a movie today.
- We have one today? - For a movie?
- That's right. - What kind of film is it?
It's a movie based on the Korean War.
Are we soldiers of the Korean War? That reminds me of our photoshoot.
(While posing for calendars, they posed as soldiers in a war.)
(The leading role is mine.)
- We need to do our best. - Of course.
In Korea and in America,
there are a lot of people who audition for roles.
What's that?
- Are we here already? - We're at Sony Pictures Studio.
- This is for real. - Why are we auditioning at...
- Sony Pictures Studio? - What is this place?
Do you know the credit scene with the lady holding a torch?
(Sony Pictures is home to movies...)
(such as "007", "Men in Black", and "Amazing Spiderman".)
- My goodness. - Is this for real?
(Nervous, they look around.)
- Hi. - Hello.
- Nice weather. - It's nice to meet you.
Hello, it's my pleasure.
- Nice to meet you. - Hello.
- Hello. - Hi.
- I'm Chaima. - Chaima?
I'm from the home office with is here at Sony Pictures.
We're going to take a little tour and show you around a little.
- Yes, okay. - Let's go!
- Let's go. - All right. Thank you.
The studio's enormous.
(It's actually used as a movie set too.)
- It's huge. - I know.
(Walking here will make you feel like a movie star.)
There's a small town within a production studio.
So there's a war film...
that Sony's going to begin production of...
in early 2018. It's a war film.
They are looking for Korean actors.
Do you know the movie "Mad Max"?
- Of course. - The movie...
("Mad Max" won six Academy awards.)
George Miller of "Mad Max" will direct a movie that...
begins production in 2018.
- The director of "Mad Max"? - Yes.
Isn't this too big of a project for us?
That's why...
- We should... - Hold on a second.
- He directed "Mad Max". - Aren't you all prepared?
- We didn't know it was a war film. - We found out today.
We're a bit too old to fight in a war.
- It's time for your audition now. - Shall we go?
- Yes, let's go. - The director of "Mad Max".
- My gosh. - Unbelievable.
It's like getting dragged in for a BCG vaccine.
(Where will the auditions be held?)
(It's an actual studio where auditions take place.)
- I hear something. - Are there souvenirs?
Could you wait out here? We'll call you in one by one.
Can't we just go inside together?
- No way. - Gosh.
- You'll come in one at a time. - It's too embarrassing.
- One at a time? - Yes.
Can't we all go inside together?
(Lack of confidence)
My stomach is in knots whenever I'm nervous.
I wonder who will have to go first.
The first one?
Who will it be?
So they will come in and...
You can just go off-script,
but then...
(Will they really be cast in the movie?)
- I'm nervous just sitting here. - I always mess up at auditions.
- Really? - This is insane.
We needed time to adjust here.
- Hello. - Oh my!
They're ready for you inside.
I will take Jae Seok Yu.
Is it you? Yes?
My goodness.
Hang on a second. I'm not ready.
- I didn't know I'd be first. - All right.
Jae Seok. Jae Seok, farewell!
- I'll get going then. - Do your best in there.
- Don't be too nervous. - My gosh.
(Surprised)
(It's huge.)
(It's his first time in a Hollywood studio.)
(Jae Seok's intimidated by the serious faces.)
Hello. Hi.
(He stands in front of the camera.)
(He now stands on a green screen.)
(He'll now audition for a role...)
(just like the characters in "La La Land".)
(He's nervous.)
All right. So...
The movie we're going to be making is "Love and War".
It's the next movie from George Miller.
He's the same director who did "Mad Max".
We're looking forward to star Ryan Gosling,
Rachel McAdams, and Dwayne Johnson.
So I guess we'll just start asking you some questions.
Jae Seok, can you take your glasses off for me please?
(My glasses?)
Yes, okay.
(He does as he's asked.)
Okay. You have such an interesting face.
(He's too nervous to even laugh.)
- Jae Seok. - Yes?
I heard that you were in Psy's music video. What was your role?
Yes. The yellow guy.
- The yellow guy. - Yes.
- Interesting. - Yes.
So, can you dance?
- Dance? - Yes.
Like I did in Psy's music video?
Can you dance like you did in the music video?
- It's my traditional dance. - Okay.
It's a grasshopper dance. Okay?
- A grasshopper dance. - It's from the same music video.
Is it a dance from the same music video?
All right. It's like running.
I don't think we are going to use a dance like that,
but I really appreciate it. Thank you.
That makes sense. It's a war movie.
Could you look into the camera with romance in your eyes?
(What?)
(Why do they need that for a war movie?)
(It's strange that they asked him to take off his glasses and dance.)
(Jae Seok is still nervous.)
(The thing is,)
(one man is giving orders on the walkie-talkie.)
(People in the studio repeat the orders.)
(Confused)
(Who is directing everything?)
(It's Jack Black.)
(In the past, he enrolled in School of Variety.)
(He experienced the spiciness of Korean variety shows.)
(Jack gave a legendary special.)
(They promised to meet again.)
(One hour before the audition)
(The studio is getting ready for an audition.)
(Jack visits the studio without the members' knowledge.)
(He prepares a fake audition that will fool everyone.)
(Even the judges are actors who were hired by Jack Black.)
(He sets up the actors at the studio...)
(and gets ready to give out orders.)
What's up, Thomas? Can you hear me?
I can hear you.
- That is fantastic, bro. - Super-duper.
(Everything you do...)
Oh, my goodness. It's happening.
(is being watched.)
Yes, of course.
- He is the captain. - Yes.
- Is he still the captain? - Yes.
(He will make all sorts of ridiculous demands.)
(Jack Black's avatar audition opens.)
Can you just look into the camera with romance in your eyes?
(The avatar repeats the order.)
- You can take off the glasses. - Okay.
It's okay. Take your time.
Take your time.
- Romance. - Yes, romance.
Passion.
Gosh, I am sorry.
(I can't do this.)
I am sorry.
(Smiling)
(Wake up, this is Hollywood.)
Okay. I am ready.
(His eyes become moist.)
Say, "I love you."
I love you.
(I love you.)
(It makes him cringe.)
That's perfect.
- I love you. - That's perfect.
(I averted the crisis.)
Perfect?
Start the scene from when he gets shot.
When Smith gets shot. Start from when Smith gets shot.
You are going to see...
one of your fellow soldiers get shot.
I am used to playing the man who gets shot.
Is it a big role?
Why is the audition so extensive?
I thought I was auditioning for a soldier who gets killed.
It's a big role,
but we can't give you any of the script right now.
It's a big role.
(They have airtight security regarding the script.)
(It's a big role.)
(I got you fooled.)
- Could you lay down? - Sure.
(They even make someone play the fellow soldier.)
He will play the fellow soldier.
- It's nice to meet you. - It's nice to meet you.
(How will he act out the scene?)
Okay.
(Bullets fly in the battlefield.)
(What will you do if your fellow soldier gets shot?)
And...
Bang.
Anthony!
Anthony! Oh, my gosh.
Anthony.
Are you okay?
(He gets absorbed in the scene.)
Anthony!
(He shouts.)
(It's a shout that contains his wish to get the role.)
(Bravo)
Anthony!
(What in the world is he doing?)
(They can hear his scream from the outside.)
It looks like he did this.
My goodness.
(His emotions surge.)
Sob, cry, then laugh...
as if you have gone mad.
Start laughing like you have gone mad.
(Mad?)
Anthony.
(He loses his mind.)
(What kind of a character am I playing?)
Real tears, if possible.
They want to see if you can give them real tears.
- Real tears? - Yes.
(I will be glad to do it.)
(He cries out to get the role.)
(Satisfied)
Now, shoot your gun violently towards the enemy camp in anger.
(I will avenge my friend.)
Die!
(Jae Seok is completely absorbed.)
There are bombs going off all around you.
(Screaming)
(Grunting)
(He must imagine this movie to be a 50-million-dollar blockbuster.)
Now there are no more rocks. Start throwing your shoes.
You jerks!
Die!
(Take my shoe bomb.)
(His acting is perfect.)
(He uses the entire space even though no one asked him to.)
(Screaming)
(He dies at a distance.)
(That was impressive.)
Magnificent. A powerful, powerful audition.
That was a very powerful audition.
- Thank you. - He says it was powerful.
You might want to look into ordering a tuxedo.
You might see you at the Oscars.
They say that you might want to get ready for the Oscars.
The Oscars?
(You won't even get your foot in the doors of Oscars.)
Okay. Thank you.
It was nice to meet you.
(The members who are waiting are nervous.)
(Holding hands)
Okay, so we are ready for the next person.
That would be Jun Ha.
(Jun Ha is an actor.)
- Let's go. - Good luck.
Show them what you can do.
You are the ace member among us. You know that.
(He is nervous from the start.)
That's not what I said.
(The judges look disinterested.)
Is Jae Seok already done?
(Jae Seok stays behind to watch.)
- Jun Ha. Hi. - Hi.
- We have heard a lot about you. - We have heard a lot about you.
I see. Thank you.
Is there a moment that was your most...
famous moment on film or TV?
There is a scene where I get drunk and support my dad on my feet.
Could you perform something from it?
Okay.
My goodness.
(I will give it a go.)
Now he is going to perform for us.
Okay.
Hey.
(Swaying)
Where is my dad? My dad.
It's Dad!
Dad.
Dad. It's Dad.
Dad, where do you want to go?
Dad. Dad.
I will send my dad to the US.
Let's go to the US.
It's so good to go to the US with my dad.
(Jun Ha wants to debut at Hollywood and make his parents proud.)
That was very emotional.
I love your face. You have a very expressive face.
(You are too kind.)
We are going to start off with running to avoid the siege.
We are going to start off with some scenarios.
We are going to have you running to avoid the siege.
Should I use these?
(Are these the props?)
(Nervous)
I hope it fits.
(If it doesn't fit, he will fail even before he performs.)
(Snug)
(Did it look like that on me?)
(Expectant)
(He takes one step after another towards the role.)
(He even pants to perform passionately.)
Now, you can say, "Oh, I am so hungry."
Say, "Oh, I am so hungry."
(That's my specialty.)
(My goodness.)
(It looks like he is in the middle of the war.)
Suddenly, you find a potato.
There is a potato on the ground.
You find a potato on the ground.
(Only those who desperately want the role...)
(can see the potato.)
(Eating hurriedly)
(Satisfied)
(He looks like he is watching TV.)
You realize it's not a potato. It's a human foot.
It's not a potato.
(What?)
It's a human foot.
(He performs diligently despite the unexpected scenario.)
(This is fun.)
Just as you finish vomiting, you see a pig's foot.
(It's a rare find during the war.)
My goodness.
Then you realize it's not a pig's foot, but a human foot.
(He becomes so absorbed that his face turns red.)
(Satisfied)
Now, you find some bread.
You find bread.
(Overjoyed)
Suddenly, a tiger appears in front of you.
A tiger appears in front of you.
My goodness.
(Shocked)
(Scary)
(He is the king of reactions.)
(Why would there be a tiger in a war movie?)
The tiger bites your butt.
Then the tiger bites the soldier's butt.
(Charging)
(Biting)
(He gives a Hollywood reaction.)
Anthony is...
(Anthony is the tiger.)
(He is on par with Andy Serkis.)
Now, Mr. Choi bites the tiger's neck.
(He strikes back.)
Now, the tiger bites Mr. Choi's thigh.
No, the tiger bites your thigh.
The tiger bites your thigh.
Mr. Choi bites off the tiger's lips.
Now, he bites off the tiger's lips.
Bite off the tiger's lips.
Mr. Jung bites off the tiger's lips.
(It becomes a romance movie.)
(Written and directed by Jack Black)
(He thinks for a second...)
(and does as he is told.)
(I will defeat you and debut in the US.)
(He is impressed by Jun Ha's enthusiasm.)
(He plays with the tiger.)
Cut.
All right. Cut.
That was fantastic.
- That was fantastic. - Yes.
(He received a compliment.)
I bit the inside of my mouth.
(I did my best.)
If we could see you kiss your lover very gently...
- Look at the camera. - We will add the lover later...
in the green screen.
(The dream he has cherished...)
Look over here.
(is to debut in the US.)
(To realize that dream, he won't say no to a kiss scene.)
(He makes up his mind.)
I missed you.
(He suppresses his laughter.)
Then ask, "Can I kiss you?"
Can I...
kiss you?
(No!)
Then kiss very gently the imaginary lover.
(Reaching)
(My goodness.)
(This is an opportunity to debut in the US.)
(In reality, it's Jack Black's welcoming ceremony.)
(He stops moving.)
Use a little bit of tongue.
(He does it.)
(Thank goodness no one is in front of him.)
(This is wrong.)
(Silence fills the studio.)
So unbelievable.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(It's time to wake up from the sweet dream.)
(This is...)
(extremely suspicious.)
All right.
It's hot.
I am so tired.
The situation is hilarious.
I can't believe it.
I am very tired.
The audition was strange.
I can't believe they asked you to give a kiss scene.
What was that?
They made me do strange things.
Why did a tiger appear when I was eating bread?
Why did it bite my butt?
It then bit my thigh.
You say that now,
but you worked really hard because you wanted the role.
Could this be a hidden camera prank?
Who's next?
My goodness.
(Next is Haha.)
- You have Haha. - Haha.
Hello.
Haha.
I hear you are the Asia's star. Is that true?
(Embarrassed)
A little bit.
How many SNS followers do you have?
Currently, I have 2,450,000 followers.
(He has more than twice as many followers as Jack Black.)
Let's get into the scene, shall we?
Mr. Choi is being captured.
You don't want to let them see you weak,
so you yell at them to kill you.
(He puts on the helmet.)
Mr. Choi's hands are tied and he is knelt down.
Okay.
It would be better for you to kill me.
Kill me. Kill me!
(He is surprised by how quickly Haha becomes absorbed.)
Kill me.
(His emotions are good.)
Kill me.
Kill me. Kill me.
The enemy comes into the room...
and smacks him across the face with his fist.
Be quiet.
(He takes the ruthless punches.)
(Grunting)
(After the countless "Kill me", he continues to grunt.)
Now, suddenly, a tiger enters the room.
Now, a tiger enters.
A tiger?
We need you to be a tiger again.
Go.
(He turns into a tiger.)
(The story becomes wild.)
(They have no idea what will happen next.)
Go away.
(The audition without a script)
(This is so much fun.)
The tiger bites his butt.
(What in the world...)
(is this audition?)
(It's the best performance he has given in his life.)
Now, the tiger gets bored.
- Now, the tiger gets bored. - It walks away slowly.
It walks away slowly.
You are so happy.
You are happy that you are alive.
(The dynamic story changes into so many different directions.)
I am alive! I am alive!
Dream, I want to go home.
- You did a great job. - Cut.
- Cut. - Great.
Can he pull himself up? Good.
Is Haha still going?
Why does it take so long?
My heart is about to burst.
Why are they making me go last? I want to get it over with.
Haha must be done.
- What did they make you do? - What did you do?
- It feels like a prank. - It seems that way, right?
- I am not sure. - It seems that way.
A tiger bit my butt.
- Me too. - It happened to Jun Ha too.
They made me do ridiculous things.
Doesn't it seem like a prank?
We have Se Hyeong.
- Yes, thank you. - Okay. Let's go.
Why? Why am I the last?
Come on.
I finally got to get away from Myung Soo.
How come I have to go last?
(How come I am the last?)
Did I say that right?
Se Hyeong. Stand on the green.
Thank you.
We hear that you are a Korean comedian.
Yes, I am a comedian.
I am very famous.
Whatever is your best...
Show us what you've got.
Okay. Give us a little taste.
In 1, 2, 3. Let's go.
Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body, body, body, Yang Se Body.
(What is that?)
(The way he moves his hands draws people in.)
That was spicy.
All right. Let's get into the scene.
Yes.
What scene?
It starts off with all the soldiers who are very depressed.
The morale is very low.
Maybe you could sing a little bit to lift up the atmosphere.
The soldier is very sad.
(A sad soldier is added to the set.)
It's cold, right? Let's cheer up.
Look at me. Look at me.
(Robot noises)
My name is RoboCop.
(He thinks fast and shows his specialty.)
Oh, my goodness.
(It's funny,)
(but what kind of a situation is this?)
I am a little confused.
Was that a joke to make the soldiers laugh?
I fired off my gun, but the bullet ricocheted and hit my thigh.
- It went... - Okay.
(That's not enough.)
Don't forget that you are performing for soldiers to cheer them up.
(In that case...)
Shall we sing together to cheer up?
Let's hold hands and sing.
I believe I can fly
(I believe I can touch the sky)
Sing louder.
(I think about it Every night and day)
(I love it.)
If you can do a little dance along with that... A little more dancing?
(That's my specialty.)
(He's excited to perform his specialty.)
(But the soldier is still depressed.)
Okay. Does he know the twist?
(He hesitates.)
(He dances twist.)
Does he know any traditional songs?
(He even dances to "Arirang".)
Perfect. Yes. More breakdancing.
(He only dances in the audition.)
Is this really the audition?
(Is this the audition for an acting job or a dancing job?)
(After dancing to 10 songs, he made the soldier get up.)
Thank you. Thank you. And cut.
Cut. Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Thank you. How do you say thank you?
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Se Hyeong is out.
He just made me dance the whole time.
He said everyone struggled.
- See? It's strange. - Honestly,
- I thought it was a prank. - Everyone thinks that.
That's not true. He really did his best to get the job.
- It's just that you saw mine. - You tried your best.
When did I say I didn't try my best?
I think I did. Are you happy?
I won't be able to watch this episode.
I am nervous.
What should I do?
- Where is he? - Myeong Soo? Myeong Soo?
- Last but not least. - Yes. How are you?
- Good. Good. Thank you. - Hi, there. Thank you so much.
My name is Myeong Soo Park.
- Myeong Soo Park. - Many people call me...
G-Park.
- Okay. - Or Gorgeous Park.
- Could we see a scene? - Okay.
Mr. Choi decides to sacrifice himself...
to save his troops.
He runs to a car to distract the enemy, and he starts the car.
I am very nervous.
(Trainee number 238 wears the gears.)
I will do my best.
Come on.
(Trainee number 238 penetrates the enemy line.)
If sacrificing myself...
can save my troops,
I won't be afraid to die.
But before you do, your lover appears.
You have to say a tearful farewell...
with a one last kiss.
- Have one last kiss. - How can I kiss?
There's nobody to kiss.
I need someone to kiss. It's strange to kiss my hand.
I will still try my best.
- Okay. Thank you. - Thank you.
I want to see my daughter.
I want to see...
(Director Jack watches him seriously.)
My... My wife.
I love you.
(As the director wished, he sends his last kiss.)
(Then the old soldier throws himself into the fire.)
Come on.
- It was better than he expected. - Come on!
(In order to protect his troops, he heads to the enemy line alone.)
(Is he going to open the tank with a smart key?)
No!
No! No! No!
No. Go back home!
Go back! Go back!
You will live. You will live.
I will die. I will die.
Let's go. Let's go. Come on.
And you look at a picture. You have her inside your helmet.
He comes to his mind again. And he takes out a picture.
(Is he crying or smiling?)
My family.
No. No. No.
My home. My nation.
And just then, a bullet passes through his heart.
Now slowly close your eyes...
and recap your entire life that you lived.
(He gets up.)
He died on the spot.
He didn't have time to recap his life.
We want you to live quickly and die slowly.
He's telling me to die slowly, right?
I can do it. I can do it.
Let's go!
(He gets hit by a bullet again.)
(He recaps his happy life.)
(Director Jack immerses into Myeong Soo's acting.)
(What is it?)
Is that his phone ringing? I think his phone is ringing.
Is that your phone ringing? Is that your phone ringing?
Is that your phone ringing?
(He pretends it's not his.)
(His wife just called on time.)
Soo Min.
(He incorporates the unexpected situation into his acting.)
I love you.
(He dies bravely.)
- And scene. - And scene.
- Thank you. - All right. Very nice.
That was great.
I don't know what it is. Born to do it.
- He thinks you were born to do it. - Born to do it.
- You will become popular. - Thanks a lot.
- See you. See you in LA. - How do you say thank you?
- Yes. - Yes, sir.
I would love to work with you.
Absolutely. Thank you.
Thank you.
(The avatar audition ends.)
Should we bring everybody? Let's bring everybody in.
All the actors.
Where? Do we go inside?
Yes. You guys can get back up here.
I really,
really enjoyed watching all of your performances.
- Thank you. - Thanks a lot.
And the director will be coming in in just a moment.
If you just want to hang out, you can say hello.
The director has just arrived.
- A while ago... - So please wait for a while.
Okay.
(I am the director.)
(He appears.)
There he is.
(Director Jack nears the actors.)
- What? - What?
Jack!
(Is he really Jack Black?)
(I fooled you all!)
Jack Black!
- Jack! - Jack!
- I never knew! - Jack.
It was a prank.
Jack.
- Who's this guy? - New member.
- New member. - New member.
- Jack. - No way.
Jack.
- Jack. - So this was a prank.
- Jack. - Jack.
(Jump!)
(Welcome, Jack!)
Jack.
(Why is Jack here?)
(They congratulate it anyway.)
Hey.
This is amazing.
My brother.
- My brother. - I'm glad it's him.
I am so glad.
This is why it was strange.
I am the director.
That was amazing.
- No wonder. - I did.
- It was him. - I was surprised.
I was talking to Tom.
Tom was talking for me.
You said you were talking to the director.
Why?
(He shows them the earphone.)
- No wonder. - He was the avatar.
Are they both actors?
- Yes. - Yes.
No wonder you were handsome.
- It's nice to meet you. - I am sorry. Thank you.
- Was it a prank then? - I knew it. It was strange.
Was it a prank?
- I'm glad it is. - He asked me to do strange things.
- A tiger bit my bottom. - Thank goodness! I was so bad.
I hated myself while I was doing it.
- Yes. It didn't make sense. - We should make a movie.
Did you see Jun Ha being disappointed?
Your energy was amazing.
(Jun Ha can't believe it's a prank.)
Please ask him if this is how auditions usually go.
- Ask him if we can pass. - We actually have an audition.
It's similar. But I thought you guys were very good.
I thought it was a really good acting.
If he were to actually choose someone to hire,
who would he choose?
Who's the best in acting?
(Pick me, Jack.)
(Everyone is desperate to be chosen.)
(Who would Jack choose?)
Your emotions were deep.
You were really feeling the emotions.
Although he didn't take direction very well.
When you start to give him a note,
"Can you do this..." He gets mad. "What are you talking about?"
(He's embarrassed.)
What are you talking about?
- He acts well. - Get over here.
- Get over here. - You can't talk to the director...
- like that. - He must've acted well.
- Jack chose Myeong Soo. - Thank you.
Come on!
(He just laughs awkwardly.)
He's drawing a line.
- He just drew a line. - It means you should stop.
- Sorry. - Stop.
It's because Stephen Curry played along with him.
- It's too much. - Sorry.
Please say hello to the viewers in Korea.
- Korean fans really love you. - To Koreans.
Can you say hello to the fans in Korea?
Yes!
This is a shout out.
I missed you, Korea!
(We missed you too, Jack.)
- Infinite Challenge. - Infinite Challenge.
(He missed it.)
- You forgot. - Did you forget it?
I forgot. I forgot.
Infinite Challenge.
- Challenge. - Okay.
By the way, you talked...
about the experience of being on our show on "Ellen Show".
You went on talk shows in Korea.
(He praised Infinite Challenge on a famous American talk show.)
Legendary, crazy, talk show, game show slash stunt show.
It was called Infinite Challenge.
I stuffed 14 marshmallows in my mouth.
And we got crazy.
You know, in Korea, they know how to party.
(In another television program overseas,)
(they even demonstrated the stocking game they played with Jack.)
And the truth is, I've been recognized more for my appearance...
on this show than any other TV shows I have done.
Everywhere I go in Los Angeles...
"Infinite Challenge!"
(His appearance on Infinite Challenge must have had an impact.)
But my wife saw the stocking game,
and she saw all the marshmallows I put in my mouth.
- Marshmallow. - And she still stayed with me.
- She still loves me. - Marshmallow.
- That's real love. - Yes.
That's when you know...
that's real love.
Oh, my.
I like him so much.
Se Hyeong has seen him for the first time.
Yes, I've never imagined... He feels like a picture to me.
I am a bigger fan of him...
than Stephen Curry.
- For comedians. - Yes.
- I'm the Stephen Curry of comedy? - Yes.
Yes!
(Doing American-style reactions)
(Then I'll do it too.)
That's a good copy.
He'll respond to everything.
He does that.
(Dancing)
(In that case...)
(Wriggling)
(He looks like a teddy bear as flexible as a squid.)
- It's nice. - Jack.
(Pumping up and down)
- He will do everything for you. - He will.
- Se Hyeong... - 1, 2, 3, 4.
Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body.
- Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body. - Yang Se Body, Yang Se Body.
(Jack will really do everything for them.)
(He even has a funny expression.)
- Go, go! - Jack will...
do everything for us.
(He finishes elegantly like a bird.)
Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness!
- Thanks. - Jack will react to everything.
Did you see that? He'll react to everything.
- Gosh. - He's the best.
We thought you'd be hungry.
- Yes. - You should sit down and eat first.
I brought you the finest foods from my land.
- We didn't really expect this. - Allow me to take you to...
- We're in Los Angeles with Jack. - your lunch.
(Feeling bewildered)
It's so cool.
Jack prepared these for us.
Yes, I cooked this myself in my kitchen at home.
I'm skipping over these healthy food.
I'll eat what he does.
I'll get you some ribs.
- Yes. - Good old-fashioned ribs.
Put a little bit of that on there. A little bit.
- Just a little bit? - Yes.
- It's so cool. - Just a little bit.
- That's like a spinach dip. - It's so cool.
- It's pretty good. - It's good.
It's nice to see you again.
I missed you too. I missed you too.
Ask him how to do auditions well.
What's the secret to good auditions?
Ask him what he did on his first audition.
(Thinking)
The first role... It was a long time ago.
There was a video game called "Atari".
- Atari? - Atari?
"Atari".
- Okay. - In 1982?
I was in the commercial.
- I was 13 years old. - He was in an advertisement.
(He debuted with an advertisement in 1982.)
Just last night, I was lost in the jungle with...
- He fits the role so well. - Surrounded by trees.
He fits the role so well.
- It fits him so well. - Surrounded by crocodiles.
And you could see it on YouTube.
I think the secret to good auditions is...
being confident...
and having fun.
I love getting up in front of people and putting on a show.
Friends for life.
- Why is he doing this? - He wants to be friends for life.
(For our everlasting friendship.)
- Friends for life. - If we suddenly say...
You should say, "We're already good friends."
We're already good friends.
(That's right.)
Stop it. You've already had enough.
He sounds exactly the same.
- Similar. - It sounds exactly the same.
It's so cool.
- It's so cool. - It's so cool.
If you say "friends", we'll say "for life".
You say "friends",
and we'll say "for life".
- Friends... - For life!
(Jumping)
(We're friends for life with Jack.)
(Jack Black is so popular.)
(Please stop.)
If we knew we were going to meet him, we'd have brought presents.
- Jack. - I know.
Actually, there's a present we wanted to give him last year.
- What is it? - What is it?
What is it?
Is it galbi?
Oh, my.
(Opening the present excitedly)
What?
- Oh, my. - What is it?
(It's hanbok.)
(Gosh)
This is...
(American-style reaction)
- Gosh. - What?
(There is a traditional Korean fan and a traditional Korean hat.)
He would look like the master.
(Flipping)
That's us.
(Laughing)
It's us.
You can't see that.
That's awesome.
(Jack looks like a nobleman from Joseon Dynasty.)
Jack, you should sing, "Come here."
Come here.
Ride on my back.
- You're the best. - Jack,
you're the best.
He's the best.
(They start singing the background music by themselves again.)
(Joining them quietly)
We came across Jack all of a sudden...
in Los Angeles.
We will go to another location and talk to him.
- Thank you, Jack. - Thank you.
- Infinite Challenge! - Infinite Challenge!
(Hollywood Special)
Where's he?
Jack.
Yes.
- What is that? - Jack.
What is that?
I also have something for you.
- Really? It's a present? -Yes, for you.
- Oh my gosh. Thank you. - Let's see.
- That's... - What is that?
It's a dog T-shirt.
(Dog T-shirt)
Dog.
(He's so funny.)
Yours is a monkey.
(There are T-shirts with different animals.)
I'm the space wolf.
- Yes. - Gosh.
We're together. Spirit animals unite.
- It's so pretty. - It is.
Why did his face get so big?
His eyes got far away.
I'm so thankful.
His movie...
is going to be released in December, and he still has a lot to do.
And still he agreed willingly to appear in our show again.
- It's not even for promotion. - He's so cool.
- He's so cool. - Jack has...
- filmed "Jumanji". - Yes.
I've enjoyed watching "Jumanji" so much.
Are you going to be in the second movie?
Yes, "Jumanji 2".
But it's not called "Jumanji 2".
It's just called "Jumanji, Welcome to the Jungle."
- Welcome to the jungle. - Welcome to the jungle.
(Please remember.)
When Jack was on our show,
the part that people found really funny...
out of all the other funny parts...
was when he sang...
Korean songs so well.
(It's a game in which Jack sings along to a Korean song...)
(and the members guess the song.)
(Singing along)
(He has detailed expressions.)
(It's so cool.)
There are a lot of good Korean songs.
So we wanted to play the game again with him.
Let's do this.
- Let's do this. - Let's do this.
- Let's do this - Okay.
Let's do this
Oh my gosh, it's happening.
- Okay. - This is really happening.
- "Skull candy". - After one year,
we're doing this again with Jack. You should go over there.
Are you ready?
- Ready. - Ready.
Start the music.
(First song)
(Concentrating)
(Singing along)
(It's so, so, so...)
(As he is concentrating, his hands become like chicken feet.)
(What song is this?)
(Oh my goodness)
Oh my goodness?
I know the answer!
I know the answer.
"Pick Me" by Produce 101.
(Correct)
(I'm the star, it's me)
(I've been waiting for you)
(He stands up whenever the song comes out.)
(His dance could charm the nation's producers.)
(Charismatic)
(Being serious)
(He reacts to Jae Seok's dance.)
He's really good.
- I like him so much. - I really need to do more.
He's learned a lesson.
I need to have more impact.
Now, let's go to the next song.
(Second Song)
He's feeling the music.
(Tempting)
(He has become united with the music.)
(They can't take their eyes off the Maestro of music.)
(Singing along)

(It's cute.)

(I know this.)
I have the answer. Jae Seok!

Okay.

When I see him...
He's such an exciting man.

(Singing)
Which song is it?
(His hands turn into chicken feet.)
(Singing)
(Laughing)
- I recognize the song. - I know what it is.
(It's obviously "Ring Ring" by Kim Yeong Cheol.)
It sounds like Jack is singing in Korean.
How is it possible?
(Speechless)
(His facial expressions are impressive.)
(Focused)
(Singing)
I'm being serious.
He can perform at a concert after listening to the songs.
I'd definitely go to his concert.
Look at him.
I know the answer.
It's "Ring Ring" by Kim Yeong Cheol.
That's correct.
(Ring ring)
It's "Ring Ring".

You're the man.
Number one.
- Jack. - Number one.
(Sizzling)
(He turns every move into a dance.)
Goodness.
(He did his absolute best.)
Jack, it isn't over yet.
He's exhausted.
Stop it. We already ate too much.
- Jack, it's not finished. - Come on.
Come on.
- I'm back. - "I'm back."
I'm back.
- We aren't finished. - It's not finished.
He's so funny.

We should kneel in front of him.
That's amazing.

Are we at his concert?
My gosh.
How?

Let's give him a round of applause.
My goodness.
- All right. - I know the answer.
- What's the answer? - It's "Confession" by Yim Jae Beum.
("Confession" by Yim Jae Beum)
(It's correct.)
(It's a great song.)
Seriously.
(Jack can sing ballads well too.)
I really respect you.
He sings ballad songs well.
What if he sings "I Miss You"?
Did I get the words right?
I'd like to hear him sing one more song.
- That's right. - What is it?
- "I Miss You". - Let's ask him to sing it.
(It's a very emotional song by Kim Bum Soo.)
(His facial expression of desperation is key.)
Play music.
- It's incredible. - Look at his face.
- How does he do that? - We should learn from him.
It's impossible for us.
(I can't come no matter how long you wait)
(Impressed)
