Bae Yong Joon, Hyun Joong, Choi Kang Hee and other stars were at the book lauching of Wine & People by sommelier Lee Joon Hyuk which was held at Vin-ga in Apgujeong yesterday.wine1 wine2

For those who are curious about the book here's a copy of it as well as promo poster. It's well known in the industry that Bae Yong Joon is a wine lover. I've feeling that he might have influenced Hyun Joong to drink wine. (I remember reading that HJL prefers soju than wine)

The author of the book will reveal in this book his conversation with BYJ and Hyun Joong.

Cheerko’s Note: I did not translate word for word and skipped one section as you guys will see. It is kind of a silly variety show but still kind of entertaining. You can compare what he said in the clip to what was on the article about what kind of wife he prefers.
Please forgive my editorials.

Beatles Code: Aired on July 7th, 2011 but it was recorded after KHJ ranked first for BD after just one week of promoting it–most likely on June 16th? The whole theme of this show is that two invited guests have parallelisms or mirrored similarities in their lives. That is the reason that two guests are selected. But some of the parallels are too contrived…

There are two male guests: KHJ and Lee HyunWoo=LHW. The clips are basically about KHJ. LHW parts are mostly cut.

Main MCRight =R, Main MC Left=L, Female side mc=F, Male side mc=W

R introduces KHJ as more beautiful than a flower or from BOF’s and that he is Asia’s star.

L: (to KHJ) It has been a long time (They met at Radio Star program few times). Both main mc’s comment how much more good looking and cool KHJ has become.

The mc’s compare LHW’s pix with KHJ’s pix. They are making fun of LHW’s pix saying that the person who prepared LHW’s pix must be an anti and that LHW looks like he is wearing a wig just like Beatle mc’s. Another person says it is his favorite kind of hat. LHW, in a good natured way, says that he is embarrassed and perplexed by it.

R starts the talk of similarities or parallels between the two guests. Both guests did not have many activities inside Korea for some time now. But during that time, one guest increased the size of his family with a child and the other guest increased his price of fame.

L: I am wondering what would be their similarities. At least, both are very handsome.

R: Both guests also came out with new songs at this time.

KHJ introduces his new song, Break Down, as an intense south urban style music which is also powerful dance song. R asks why it is south urban. KHJ says South Korea is basically located in the southern part. Laughter (as opposed to North Korea) Laughter

L asks KHJ: Are you happy these days?

KHJ: Yes. I am especially happy today. ….my song was rated number 1 today after just one week. (Congratulatory sounds and they show KHJ receiving flowers on a music show on June 16, 2011. So this show must have been taped on June 16th? In the music show, KHJ says thanks to audience and includes YoungSeng’s name! That is nice of him.) MC again point to the part in KHJ’s hair as symbolizing number 1.

R tries to make a joke that since KHJ ranked number 1 on the first week, he will rank 2nd on the second week and so on. KHJ initially did not get the joke. Then, he plays along with the joke by saying that: I think it is good to go down slowly like that. MC R also chimes in to says that KHJ would still be on top 10 after 10 weeks.

L: (to KHJ) Do you know where Dae Duk is? KHJ thinks it is a place or a train station in Nam Hyang. MC say that it is located in DaeJun and that it is the location of their research facility. (I wonder if this it true or part of their program set up??) Dae Duk is where parallel lives are studied and researched. KHJ says that he is feeling a bit awkward as he has never seen this program before and he does not know what to say or do here and finds himself hard to adjust.

DaeDeuk has researched into why these two guests have parallel lives or run similar lives. Basically, the narrator notes the “6th sense” similarity between the two. The reason is that KHJ’s bday is June 6, 1986 and LHW’s bday is March 6, 1966. There are three 6’s in each person’s bday. Another similarity is that both guests experienced drawing on bags: KHJ on 2/24. 2009 and LHW on 4/27/2011. Even the pix that they drew on the bag are an abstract face on the bag!!

KHJ says that he drew a face of his manager with blood-shot/congested eyes. (@4:26, we can see the two pix on bags). LHW says that he drew Lee Sora who was hosting a music program and he was a guest.

KHJ says that he learned to draw for 6 years at an art institute. LHW says that he majored in art in college. But before college, he also attended an art institute. MC’s are shouting that they found another similarity in the two people!!!

MC point out about 6th sense from their birthdays and asks KHJ if he ever saw a ghost. Unfortunately, LHW did not. KHJ points out that Dae Duk made a mistake! laughter KHJ talks about having seen a ghost whose sex was unidentifiable and whose face had somewhat sickly blue hue. KHJ saw the ghost staring up at him when he was coming out of a shower and towel-drying his hair. KHJ says that he heard that a ghost can enter a person’s body if the person is shocked or scared by the ghost. So, KHJ says he walked out the bathroom and then screamed. He was out of the bathroom in 5 seconds and then the ghost was gone. F and W mc’s are trying not to listen to KHJ’s ghost story.

R points out that both guests are very similar as if they are leading mirrored lives. Both started out as singers and then went into acting. In acting, LHW’s roles tend to be that of chief or head of an office while KHJ has played prince-like, noble roles. L points out that, although both guests played high-status people, KHJ is still a bit higher than LHW. Laughter

L asks about the type of characters that he would like to play: He wants to play characters who are more like his own personality—someone who is tough and can be funny or jokes around. He gives examples which are seen on screen: Lim ChangBum sunbae-nim is the one who gets punched on screen when he says to the big guy; do you know who I am? KHJ says that he really wants to play a role that is mischievous and playful. R talks about the next similarity between the two guests: both have married wives whose age difference is quite big. LHW married someone 13 years his junior and KHJ once was married to someone who was 6 years his senior called Hwangbo.

L casually asks how long ago was the fake marriage to Hwangbo. KHJ says it was about 2 and half years ago. L again very casually asks KHJ if he stays in contact with Hwangbo. KHJ says that they do not contact each other. R asks if KHJ knows Hwangbo’s number and KHJ says he does not. R comments that everything in this world is a sham. R comments, there is nothing REAL in this world!

L asks KHJ if he feels that he knows women. KHJ says that he feels that he thinks he knows women and then he does not. L asks what is it about women that he really cannot understand. KHJ says that because he is a man, he does not understand why women seem to like personal ornaments, jewelry, gold, or anything shiny, and bags. He does not get it. (What!!! KHJ wears them all the time!!) He also does not understand why one is worth 1000won while the other is worth 20,000won when both look the same to him. LHW chimes in to say that there are bags that cost 30,000,000won. MC point out that money is no object if it brings lots of happiness. LHW says that he has not bought such a bag but his wife has mentioned it few times. MC asks the only female mc why women like bags. But she says that she does not own any fine things herself. R playfully says that their show needs to get another type of women besides their current one. Laughter

L says that jewels cost too much money. KHJ says that jewels can cost 6uk and 5uk. He does not understand the need to buy them for a wedding ceremony when the women would never wear them again. He thinks the women should just rent them for the day.

L asks the married LHW how he feels about it. LHW agrees that he does not understand it either. However, he considers the wedding day sort of a one time big luxurious event for the bride. Even though he may not understand it, he felt the need to acknowledge it and make it as memorable as possible for her.

KHJ’s criteria for future wife: R asks KHJ if he has a fantasy about the kind of married life that he wants. But, L jumps in to ask how many kids he wants to have. KHJ says he wants 4 kids. L repeats that KHJ wants a wife who can bear many children for him and who cannot be too greedy for honsoo=gift articles which may include jewels, money, etc. for marriage. KHJ agrees. F asks KHJ if that is all that is required of his future wife. KHJ then says that she has to be pretty. KHJ turns red and apologizes to the female mc after he realizes what he did. Every mc is saying that KHJ was looking straight at the female mc when he said his wife has to be pretty. F says that she is scared. Laughter. L asks KHJ for one other criteria for his future wife. KHJ says that she has to be kind-hearted.

L reiterates the criteria that KHJ mentioned for his future wife and L says that KHJ cannot marry early…he may have to wait a long time like way past 40. (laughter~~I guess the mc are saying that KHJ will have a hard time finding women who meet his critera.)

L asks LHW if he is considering having more children. He currently has two boys. LHW wants to see how they do with two kids and then see. Since he has two very tough boys, he is amazed at how his wife handles it all.

L asks about two guests’ siblings. LHW comes from two-boy and two-girl family while KHJ comes from two-boy family. Except for the two-girl part, mc say that they found another similarity bet the two guests. They come from two-boy families. (These mc are trying hard to force -fit the puzzles where they don’t quite fit.)

L says that small children like KHJ and they show a vid clip of a little girl screaming and jumping up and down when she notices KHJ on a magazine page. @5:02 on the second clip) R says that it must be the mother who is KHJ fan and must have shown pix of KHJ before. KHJ says that he has lots of noona fans and they bring their little ones to his events and often both the mother and the children become fans together.

R says that both guests have similarity in that they both know Bae Yong Joon. KHJ says that BYJ can be playful in his text messages—using cute internet language and lots of emoticons. L asks if KHJ want to be more like BYJ-mysterious and reserved. KHJ says that he thought about it and thought it would be nice to be thought so positively by others and to have that neat and clean image. But he says he gave up on the idea. Whenever night comes, he wants to go out and have fun.

L asks what he wears to go out at night. KHJ says that he once really liked short pants called 7th part short pants but they were sold out. So, he went to a dressmaker who made 30 of the same for him. He only wore that shorts for one whole year. Mc asks him what the shorts looks like. KHJ says it is grey without any pattern and just has 7.5 on it. KHJ says that often people used to tell him to go home and wash his clothes but in fact he had 30 of the same thing. He likes ?Sam Sun? slippers for shoes and he would wear long sleeve hoodie and he has to wear his necklace and watch to go out. When L says that he cannot imagine KHJ in outfit to go outside, W points out that the singer Kim GunMo used to wear 7-part pants a lot. @7:29 is pix of Kim GunMo wearing the pants that KHJ likes very much. KHJ says that that is the exact pants that he likes.

R asks about his air port fashion. KHJ says that once his outfit became news that now he feels burdened whenever he goes to airport. So he tends to buy new clothes to go to airport. KHJ chimes in to talk about a friend who sells Korea traditional clothing. So he wants to wear down to earth ramie Korean garb like the men of high morals (do-sah) and the example is @8:10. KHJ says that he really likes what Choi Minskik sunbae is wearing. (Maybe KHJ also is saying that he may be interested in playing historical drama as a quirky character??)

L says that it seems like KHJ can become a maniac about certain clothes and fashion. KHJ says he can also become maniac about food as well, if he gets stuck on it. For example, when he got stuck on nengmyun (cold vermicelli noodle in beef broth), he would only eat that for a month. When he was in Japan, he was stuck on Gyudon and only ate that for 6 months. These days, he is stuck on sea gull flesh meat. But he finds that not too many places sell them. He hears that even the skin does not make good profit. F says that, as she hears KHJ talk about his taste in food and fashion, it would have been terrible for him if he was not handsome. Laughter MC says that they are only listening to all his statements now because he is good looking. Laughter.

Then they talk about the similarities in the two guests’ music and song. R says that they researched into their music even by going into not only KHJ’s new songs but also his songs from SS501 days.

Trying to find similarities and how their songs are related in their songs were silly and just a little too much for me to translate. Too contrived and silly. Sorry. One funny part was when L asked KHJ to sing his part in SS501 song and KHJ says he did not realize that he had such a small part in the song.

W tried to find a star outside of Korea who may have parallelism with KHJ and came up with Japan’s Kimura Takua who also is both a singer and an actor. Kimura Takua also was a singer who used to be part of a group called SMAP with 5 singers and then became a solo singer. @0:39 pix of Kimura and KHJ. That both are born in the capital cities of respective countries. They also try to see what it would be like for Kimura to sing KHJ’s song BD. @ 1:08 KHJ says that he has never met Kimura Takua. By looking at him today, KHJ feels that it is OK to get older and still do what one wants to do and age without looking the age. He says it is possible to not become too much like an ajussi as he becomes older as he looked at Kimura Takua. L asked KHJ if he will continue to wear 7-part shorts as he ages. KHJ says that even Kimura Takua still wore hoodie, the kind of fashion that KHJ likes. Laughter.

Narrator says that now the two guests are ready to be promoted in their acting roles—LHW from head of office to the President of the company and KHJ from prince to the king. They hope that their guests become the center of the entertainment industry. LHW says he has no idea what he said or what may have happened even though 3 hours have passed. KHJ wonders if this is the end. KHJ also says that he felt like he was here a short time and it is over. He feels that now he understand the concept of the show and he feels that he should return. Laughter,
