SIX SINGLES UNDER ONE ROOF

DAY 3, DINNER

FULL OF ENDLESS MIRTH

I'm exhausted.

Let's have dinner out in the yard.

Take the ingredients with you!

- Sure thing. - Yes, ma'am.

FIRST-EVER BARBECUE PARTY TOGETHER

EVERYONE HAS GOTTEN USED TO HAVING 6 CHAIRS AROUND THE TABLE AT MEALTIME

Let me push this aside.

- We can use it later. - Good idea.

It'd get in the way otherwise.

ALPHA GIRL SOO-JIN WASTES NO TIME IN SETTING UP THE GRILL

It's cold.

It's pretty chilly.

SETS UP THE TABLE PEACEFULLY

Shall I get it for you?

TIDY DA-HEE NEVER SITS STILL

SPRING IN HER STEP

WHERE ARE THE OTHER HOUSEMATES?

- It won't take long. - There's our general.

EXCLAIMS

HYPE DUO

HYUK AND DO-YEON SEEM TO BE IN CHARGE OF LIFTING THE MOOD

Why are you all lined up?

I haven't done much.

You can go take a seat. I'm almost done.

I love watching the flames.

- Do you guys enjoy firegazing? - Sure.

I love it so much.

I don't get the zoning out part. Is it like daydreaming?

ZONING OUT JUST FINE

Yes, the heat's too high.

- I love the crackling sound. - Right?

I'm digging this vibe.

TOASTING MARSHMALLOWS FOR SNACK

These smell amazing.

So sweet. Once they're toasted...

FOOD TASTER TAKES A BIG BITE

How is it?

- It's great. - Once the outside has...

You can just eat them now.

I'd say yours are toasted nicely.

NOW?

What do I do?

What do I do?

Blow on them.

OH, NO!

ONE FELL

No!

HUFFS

Hey!

- No! - Not on there.

Emergency!

- No! - Hurry!

- Hey! - No!

- Not on there. - Emergency!

- Be careful. - Daniel!

- Is it okay? - I've got it now.

- Guys. - What's this?

- It's all good. - We've got an accident!

- Guys, what was that about? - Are you hurt?

- What happened, Do-yeon? - It's okay.

- Should we have used less kindling? - Do you want to take some out?

The sticks shouldn't form a cone.

No, don't topple the cone.

- It's not time for that yet. - All right.

- Hey, step aside. - Watch out for the flying embers.

- Let's use these tongs. - Oh, sure.

- Wait... - With these...

- There you go. - Where will you put it?

Take it to the side.

- Yes, right there. - I've got this.

- Watch out for the flying embers. - Be careful.

You might catch fire.

- I'll spread the sticks out. - That's good.

Great.

AT PEACE AGAIN

Watch out!

- Maybe we added too many. - Be careful.

CHOI DANIEL, AGE 40 LOVES MARSHMALLOWS

- Be careful. - I could say the same to you.

- Be very careful. - I can't believe you're eating.

Can you pass me the tongs, Do-yeon?

- We have too much kindling. - Let's take some out.

Or maybe all, if I can have my way.

- All sorted now. - Yes, is it good now?

- Are you taking more out? - No, we're good now.

This seems okay now.

Let's keep a small fire.

Is it for your marshmallows?

Yes, bear with me.

- Go right ahead. - I admire your laser-sharp focus.

ONE MORE PERSON WITH A LASER-SHARP FOCUS

We've got a marshmallow creature.

PICKING UP PIECES

We could make Dubai chewy cookies with these marshmallows.

CLEANING UP THE DROPPED MARSHMALLOW

This is good.

- I told you. - I'm eating that, Do-yeon.

- This right here? - Yes, it's pretty good.

It fell on my container, after all.

Is that good?

- You can all rest now. - Okay.

Once charcoal is heated up...

LEAVE THE BARBECUE TO TRUSTY CAPTAIN KYUNG

HERE WE GO

ASSISTANT AHN-GEL

- Do I throw in everything? - Yes, everything.

ADD PORK BELLY AND SAUSAGES ON SOO-JIN'S CUE!

KEY ASPECT IN GRILLING: FIRE MANAGEMENT

I hear you can roast anything once you master pork belly.

That's tricky, though.

- Right? - What with the oil dripping down.

DRAWN BY THE ENTICING SMELL FILLING UP THE YARD

Oh, wow.

GUESTS GATHER

NOW I COME TO THINK OF IT...

You guys remember Keun-suk, right?

I must leave for work.

Right, Keun-suk.

- He's missing. - Oh, right.

- Bet you forgot about him. - Sorry, Keun-suk.

Let's have a proper party when he returns.

It's cooked through, all right.

- Let's eat up before they get cold. - Okay, let's dig in.

- Let's eat, everyone. - What a feast.

Let's dig in.

Enjoy, everyone.

Here.

HURRIEDLY TAKING A BIG BITE

Dig in.

It's insanely good.

Ms. Kyung.

- Thank you. - Great job, Ms. Kyung.

Man, this is good.

You've handled everything like nobody's business

so we get to eat with no effort.

But grilling meat isn't that easy.

- It's a lot of work. - Really?

I'm loving this, Captain.

I can do this again.

- Hit me up anytime. - Thanks, I'll remember that.

TRADING EXPERT SERVICES

Daniel has another House Squad Goal.

Slow dancing, was it?

Yes.

- Interesting. - I'm curious, though.

Why slow dancing of all things?

Has it always been your dream?

Back when I was young

- I'd watch movies and find... - Oh, I get it now.

Especially in foreign movies

the leads in a restaurant would suddenly start dancing.

What's the movie called where people tango?

- Scent of a Woman. - Scent of a Woman.

- Is your fantasy - Yes.

- close to that scene in that movie? - Exactly.

LIKE THE LEGENDARY SCENE FROM SCENT OF A WOMAN

- With someone at the piano... - Yeah.

In a restaurant with a piano

I'd be dressed in a suit

and my partner would be in a dress, nothing too fancy, you know.

We would dance in a ballroom, without caring about anyone else.

As if a pin spot were following us.

That scene impressed me deeply back when I was little.

ROMANTIC SCENE HAS STAYED WITH HIM

As much as I loved that scene from the movie

I still thought that I could never do it.

But it's something I want to try with you guys.

SLOW DANCING LIKE IN SCENT OF A WOMAN...

AVOIDS EYE CONTACT

It sure is a romantic dream.

ABOUT THE SLOW DANCE SCENE IN SCENT OF A WOMAN...

THE MALE LEAD DANCED WITH A WOMAN

ONE OF US HAS TO HELP HIM OUT!

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

SUDDENLY PENSIVE LIKE THE OTHERS

Honestly

out of all the House Squad Goals I've mentioned so far

I want this one the most.

- I get it. - Is that so?

Here's the thing, though. You need to learn the dance.

No, he can lead you.

- Is that so? - Do you want to try, Daniel?

- Shall we, then? - You can guide me.

- It will work. - We'll prove it to you right away.

You'll see.

PEACEKEEPER AHN-GEL VOLUNTEERS

- We'd be out dining, right? - Okay.

- We'll eat these mushrooms. - Yes, all relaxed.

- Think of us as other diners. - We'd chat over the meal.

"It's so nice to see you tonight.

The food is wonderful.

Isn't the mushroom to die for?"

MALE LEAD

We'd chat over the meal.

FEMALE LEAD

Are you going to the restroom?

- What's the matter? - Where are you going?

ENTRANCED BY MUSIC

THEY TURN TO LOOK AT EACH OTHER WHILE STILL MUNCHING ON THEIR FOOD

LIGHT TOUCH

What's the matter with you?

What the heck?

- As if there were only two of us. - Exactly.

- We'd ignore everyone... - Yeah.

- With our eyes locked, right? - Exactly.

Here they go.

THEY SAID YOU COULD MAKE IT WORK WITH THE GUY LEADING...

OUT OF SYNC

- Who's the girl, you or me? - Beats me.

- Same here. - Just spin me around.

- You sure? - Yes.

- The other direction. - Help me out.

Guys, you make such a cute couple.

You look lovely, Jae-hyeon.

IT'S ALL GOOD AS LONG AS I'M OFF THE HOOK

Now, spin.

A PROPER SPIN THIS TIME?

- My gosh. - Guys!

- Slower, okay? - Okay.

- My gosh. - Guys!

They might end up kissing.

- Pretty neat, right? - Honestly...

- You look lovely. - Yeah.

This is the vibe we want.

- You look good together. - What do you think?

This is what I want.

Why don't we give it a go together?

Like a rehearsal, you know.

AVOIDING COMMITMENT

LIKE IT'S A CONTEST

- All I need is that vibe. - Just the feel of it.

SILENCE

- Just to see the height difference. - Yeah, just that.

SILENCE

You don't need to dance. Let me just check that out.

I'LL GIVE UP THE REST! JUST STAND NEXT WITH ME...

LOOKS AROUND

DO-YEON RELUCTANTLY STEPS UP FOR OLD TIME'S SAKE

- I hope you're not badly upset. - Why would I be?

I've been waiting for this forever!

I can barely contain my excitement!

This is the best day of my life!

SLOW-DANCE CRAZE

All right, then.

- Here's the deal. - Hit me.

- We'd share a meal together - Okay.

and recreate the scene from start to finish.

We'd be enjoying our meal

but we'd rise gracefully when the music starts.

- Let's eat our meal. - Okay.

- Ignore the others. - All right.

- We're oblivious to them. - Sure.

This place is excellent.

- Yeah, their steak is amazing. - Tell me about it.

- I see you're enjoying the steak. - I love meat.

- You're a meat lover? - Yes.

Do-yeon.

Yes?

Shall we dance?

My gosh.

Right now?

- Are you sure? The place is packed. - Don't worry. Let's go.

The embarrassment might kill me.

ERRATIC BEHAVIOR FROM EMBARRASSMENT

I'm so embarrassed.

- Don't worry. - Can I dance like this?

- It's okay. - Like this?

UTTERLY CHARMED

- I'm really embarrassed. - Don't worry about it.

- It will be fine, Do-yeon. - Okay.

Do-yeon.

SHYLY TAKES HIS HAND

- What do we do? - Like this.

- Do I just stare at you? - We do this...

At first, it goes like this.

Who'd have thought?

We maintain eye contact

- and just shuffle this way and that. - Okay.

- Like this, okay? - Sure.

We sway like this.

- Is this it? - Yeah.

- This is all I've imagined. - I see.

Let's move this way.

Slowly...

Slowly...

FORCED TO RUN AWAY FROM EMBARRASSMENT

DINNERTIME ON DAY 3

THEY'VE EASED INTO SILLY PRANKS AND SHARED LAUGHTER

What's changed from our first day?

We're relaxed.

It's so easy to be around everyone.

At first, we had to show the others what we're like.

Now, everyone has made that clear.

SHARED MEALS

SHARED DRINKS

SHARED JOY

NOW, THEY KNOW EVERYTHING FROM EVERYONE'S LITTLE HABITS

TO THE SECRETS THEY'VE KEPT DEEP IN THEIR HEARTS

If we lived together like this, I'd have so much fun

and never have a moment to feel down

because the others would always lend me their ear.

But I wouldn't improve in any way.

I'd never read a book.

I can totally see it.

IS IT OKAY TO JUST HAVE FUN?

ANOTHER DAY WITH MIXED FEELINGS AT GUGI-DONG COMES TO A CLOSE

THE SUN RISES AGAIN ON DAY FOUR WITH EVERYONE FEELING MORE AT EASE

EARLY HOURS IN GUGI-DONG ARE FILLED WITH QUICK MOVEMENTS

IGNORES IT AND RESUMES TO READING THE NEWSPAPER

NEXT-GENERATION MC DOESN'T WAVER IN HER MORNING STUDY HOUR

AT THAT MOMENT, THE NOISE TEASES HER EARS AGAIN

BURSTS INTO LAUGHTER

TURNS OUT DA-HEE IS SINGING BEHIND THE WALL

What's she doing?

QUIET AGAIN

THE STRANGE VOICE HAS GONE SILENT AGAIN

MAYBE SHE WAS MUMBLING IN HER SLEEP

LET'S GO BACK TO READING

MYSTERIOUS NOISE COMING FROM NEXT DOOR

DECIDES TO EAVESDROP

WHAT IS SHE DOING?

DA-HEE IS SINGING GOLDEN FROM K-POP DEMON HUNTERS

THE NOISE CARRIES UNEXPECTEDLY WELL

GRINS

SINGING GOLDEN AT 8 A.M.

VOICE CRACK HEARD LOUD AND CLEAR

HOW IS IT THAT DA-HEE ENDED UP SINGING QUITE LOUDLY?

10 MINUTES AGO

DA-HEE STARTED LOOKING FOR SOMETHING RIGHT AFTER WAKING UP

THE OBJECT SHE WAS LOOKING FOR...

HER EARBUDS

SHE WAS BEING MINDFUL BEFORE HITTING THE PLAY BUTTON

LITTLE DID DA-HEE REALIZE

THAT YOU TEND TO FORGET HOW LOUD YOU'RE WHEN WEARING EARBUDS

AND THAT THE WALLS DIDN'T CANCEL NOISES AT ALL

IT'S TIME DO-YEON TOLD HER THE TRUTH

SHOULD I GET OVER THERE OR NOT?

SILENT

She sure loves singing.

SHOCKED

IN THE MEANTIME

KEUN-SUK RETURNED HOME LATE AFTER WORK LAST NIGHT

Me again?

HE'S STILL THE FIRST PERSON TO COME TO THE LIVING ROOM

PRINCE NEVER SKIPS HIS BREAKFAST NO MATTER HOW TIRED HE IS

What?

My gosh.

WHY IS KEUN-SUK SO STARTLED?

- Did you sleep well? - Yeah.

INSOMNIAC SOO-JIN APPEARED

DEFYING EVERYONE'S EXPECTATIONS

SOO-JIN HAD AN UNEXPECTED BEDTIME

SHE SLEPT FOR 10 HOURS STRAIGHT

AND APPEARED BARE-FACED ON THEIR FIRST MORNING TOGETHER

Well, she has insomnia.

SHE SLEPT FOR 8 HOURS ON THE NEXT DAY

HER SLEEPING SCHEDULE HAS SHOWN A GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN GUGI-DONG

TODAY...

SHE APPEARED EARLY WITH MAKEUP ON

- Did you sleep well? - Yeah.

I came home too late last night.

Really? And you're holding up okay?

- Are you good? - Sure.

I see you never skip breakfast.

Do you want some?

I was thinking of making curry.

- Curry? - Yes.

In that case, I'll wait.

I was thinking of making curry.

- That sounds nice. - Right?

AFTER A GOOD NIGHT'S REST, SOO-JIN HAD A LEISURELY MORNING

GIVE ME BREAKFAST IDEAS FOR OUR 6-MEMBER FAM

SHE HAD A CHAT WITH HER REGULAR AI FRIEND

I felt like making breakfast for everybody.

When I asked my AI chatbot for ideas, it suggested making curry.

I have a name for my AI chatbot.

I call it "My Rock."

TAKE A SHOT OF THE INGREDIENTS IN YOUR FRIDGE

"WHAT CAN I ADD TO THE CURRY AMONG THESE ITEMS?"

THE CHATBOT WILL THEN TELL YOU WHICH INGREDIENTS TO USE!

LIST OF INGREDIENTS

SOO-JIN FOLLOWS THE CHATBOT'S RECOMMENDATION

FRESH INGREDIENTS: ONION, CARROT, POTATO

I'm adding canned corn.

MUST-HAVES: CHILI, CORN, MEAT

Great.

THE INNOVATIVE YOUNGEST IS COMMUNICATING WITH HER CHATBOT

I noticed how so many people ask their AI chatbots for recipes.

I know.

When I was teaching myself to cook

we had to rely on YouTube.

That was our best option.

ANOTHER OLD-TIMER'S TIMELY ARRIVAL

Why did you all get up so early?

Morning, Daniel. Did you sleep well?

- You're giving an unemployed uncle. - What?

Right?

Seriously

you look like a carefree uncle who's given up on his career.

You take so many supplements.

NO SKIPPING THE DAILY ROUTINE

You should take some, too. Want to try these?

- I can share them with you. - What are they?

No thanks.

What's that, though?

It's for men.

FOR MEN?

We should regularly take

black maca, cumin

something for our liver, omega-3...

DANIEL IS BIG ON MEN'S HEALTH AS IS

And probiotics.

IN THAT CASE...

Give me something that isn't in pill form.

Squeeze out every last drop.

LET'S GO!

What's all this early in the morning?

Let's go.

MEN'S HEALTH SUPPLEMENT... IS BITTER

CRACKS UP

Olive oil makes it too greasy.

I take lemon juice regularly.

Man, they're so energetic.

ENERGETIC TUNE KEEPS FLOWING OUT ON THIS SIDE OF THE HOUSE

DO-YEON'S ROOM, DA-HEE'S ROOM

BEDROOM KARAOKE IS STILL GOING WELL

HUMMING ALONG

VOICE CRACKING

WHAT A BUMMER

ASTOUNDED AT HERSELF FOR FOCUSING MORE ON THE SONG

NEXT-GENERATION SINGER FINALLY SITS UPRIGHT

CHANGES HER POSTURE

PULLS IN HER CORE MUSCLES

FULLY PREPARED TO BELT IT OUT

8 A.M. DA-HEE'S BEDROOM CONCERT

SUNG BY DA-HEE, HEARD BY DO-YEON

SHOWS INTEREST

SURPRISED

SOMEHOW ROOTING FOR DA-HEE TO HIT THE HIGH NOTES

GOES SILENT

WHEN YOU FEEL UNSURE, MAKE SURE TO SKIP THAT LINE

HERE COMES THE IMPORTANT CHORUS PART!

CRACKING UP

LET'S GO BEFORE DA-HEE WEARS HERSELF OUT

Da-hee.

Da-hee.

Yes?

Are you up?

Yes, I am.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

What's with singing in the morning?

What?

Why are you belting out Golden at this hour?

- It's just... - Tell me.

What was that about with Golden?

It's just that...

I tried to keep it down because I knew you were next door.

I wanted to sing that song so badly

but I haven't memorized the lines yet.

I laughed my stomach out.

It's so nice to be your roommate.

FUN BEGINS EARLY IN THE MORNING

Hi, guys.

HOUSEMATES GATHERED TOGETHER

Everyone's up.

Good morning, Soo-jin.

My gosh. Hey, Da-hee.

JUST TWO DAYS AGO...

DA-HEE WAS BUSY HIDING HER BARE FACE

BUT ON DAY 4, SHE DOESN'T MIND AT ALL

- Are you making breakfast? - Yes, I'm making curry for you guys.

My AI chatbot recommended curry.

- You asked for its opinion? - Yeah.

The AI wants me to prepare curry.

- Is Soo-jin making us curry? - I mean

you guys can take a breather.

- I'll help out. - You will? All right, then.

JUST AN ASSISTANT AND NOT THE CHEF

I'll do the dishes.

- Use all the dishes you want. - All right.

We don't need to have everyone working at the same time.

THE 87ERS ARE ON BREAKFAST DUTY!

DANIEL, THE 86ER, IS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE

- I'll take a rest. - Can we really take a rest?

Of course.

THE 85ERS GET TO ENJOY THE FREE TIME THANKS TO THE 87ERS AND "MY ROCK"

MEANWHILE, DO-YEON HAS WASHED UP

YOU CAN'T SKIP THE MORNING SKINCARE ROUTINE

DON'T FORGET TO MOISTURIZE YOUR HANDS

I didn't get to finish my newspaper.

PICKING UP WHERE SHE LEFT OFF

DA-HEE IS READING THE NEWSPAPER

IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S FOCUSING PRETTY WELL THIS TIME

OH, RIGHT

Hey, Keun-suk.

Do you like your room?

OUT OF THE BLUE?

It's not bad. Why do you ask?

I hear Ms. Go suggested we swap rooms for good luck.

Let's ask about the room's colors.

Does it suit us?

Daniel in the Brown Room.

Da-hee in the Yellow Room.

I'd say Da-hee is the only person

not fully in harmony with her color.

Actually, it'd be better if Keun-suk and Da-hee swapped rooms.

KEUN-SUK IN THE YELLOW ROOM, DA-HEE IN THE BLUE ROOM

WITH ME?

Do you like your room?

Do you want to swap rooms?

Not necessarily.

- I like my room just fine. - Da-hee.

- There's one small problem. - Which is?

- Keun-suk and Do-yeon will... - We'd have to share the bathroom.

I don't think I can do that.

I like yellow, you know.

Can you give me something blue from your room?

- Like a talisman? - Hey.

- Give her your pajama. - Do you want this?

- Sure. - Let her have it.

- Wear this instead. - Do you want to swap our pajamas?

You know what? Her nightshirt has red bits in it.

I told you.

I don't trust such things blindly.

I'm not that kind of girl.

Honestly, I don't care about readings and stuff.

Did you choose blue slippers on purpose?

- Good catch. - No.

The shamans said blue is the right color for me.

So...

I'm trying to find the right balance with some blue items in my life.

Again, I'm not a blind follower.

REPEATS HERSELF

Be my guest.

I'm not sure if there's anything to take.

- Do you want to check? - Sure.

RESPONSE IN 0.001 SECOND

So you're into that kind of stuff.

That's not it.

Then why are you obsessing over it?

I'm not obsessing over anything. Here's the thing.

The shamans said everyone was in harmony with their color

except for me.

That really bugged me, you know.

Something blue.

How's the cushion?

There's the stool, too.

Flowers.

The used cushion is kind of icky, right?

- No, not at all. - Really?

- It's okay. - Turn it over.

Yes, I like the idea.

COLOR MATTERS MORE THAN CLEANLINESS

- This is also blue. - Can I take one of those

and this blanket?

I honestly don't mind.

It's better than swapping rooms.

Take whatever you want.

- Okay. - Take this, too.

Thanks, Keun-suk.

I MIND, SO I'LL GLADLY TAKE THESE

SMILING

- You seem almost giddy. - Honestly

the shaman's comment really got under my skin.

- With those in your room - Yeah?

you'll get a strong wealth fortune.

You really think so? All right.

AP'S WEALTH FORTUNE

IS FILLING UP THE ROOM

BELIEVE IT OR NOT

DA-HEE IS NOT THE TYPE TO BLINDLY FOLLOW SUPERSTITION

SO MUCH WORK TO TACKLE

I'll bring these to your room, Keun-suk.

I GUESS THERE'S NO STOPPING HER

Are you giving me that blanket?

Okay.

DA-HEE HAS DISAPPEARED IN A FLASH

RUSHING OVER TO KEUN-SUK'S ROOM BEFORE HE CHANGES HIS MIND

SHE KEPT SAYING SHE'S NOT A BELIEVER, BUT HER SPEED SAYS OTHERWISE

HURRIEDLY SETTING UP NEW ITEMS DESPITE NOT BELIEVING THE SHAMANS

MAKING MORE EFFORT THAN IN HER OWN ROOM

It looked like a guy's room before.

But with the new additions

the room doesn't look as cool as before.

That's the vibe I got

so I felt kind of dumbfounded.

NOW MOVING AT A NOTICEABLY SLOWER PACE

AGAIN, I DON'T BELIEVE IN SHAMANISM

Let's go.

- For a walk? - I love the idea.

Gosh, what a beautiful day it is.

It's gotten much warmer, right?

I haven't had a chance to take a stroll around here.

- Same. It's such a nice area. - I know.

OFF TO A CAFÉ NEARBY

My gosh.

There are so many hikers in the area.

Probably because it's the weekend.

But it's lovely to go for a walk, what with the warmer weather.

- It's almost spring. - Right?

- It's great to go for a walk. - Yeah.

THEY'VE BEEN STAYING IN GUGI-DONG FOR 4 DAYS ALREADY

Last night

I dreamed of having a flock of bats in my room.

They even sat on my bed, you know.

I tried to vacuum them and...

You cleaned in your dream as well?

- Did I clean? - Gosh, Da-hee.

- Well... - You cleaned in your dream, too?

I didn't clean, exactly.

I only used a giant vacuum cleaner to get rid of the bats...

Most people would call that cleaning.

- It was to capture them. - You got them?

- I did. - You used the vacuum.

They left dirt everywhere

so I had to clean the dust on my bed and other places.

- Are you sure that was just a dream? - I mean...

So...

It sounds like something you'd do in real life.

So I typed in details about my dream

into an AI service to get an interpretation.

It said it was indicative of high strain and stress.

It said I was experiencing mental pressure.

I'm not lying here. I really fed it to the chatbot.

I know we've said

that it's pretty enjoyable and fun, but at the end of the day

we moved into a new place, right?

I don't know why for certain

but I've come down with something.

Honestly

I'm actually enjoying it here

but my body's reacting so strangely.

I want to ask what's up with it.

So you've been feeling that way, too.

You feel me? I want to tell my body, "You enjoyed it, too."

- We're adjusting to the new place. - I think so.

As much as I'm enjoying it, my body can't help but tense up.

I've kept thinking that it's so easy to be here, too.

But apparently, my body doesn't agree.

It must be under a lot of strain.

- Here's the café. - We got here in no time.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Welcome. - It's nice.

- This is awesome. Hello. - We should get some scones.

My goodness.

PLANNING TO COME BY OFTEN

Will you be having the desserts here?

No, they're for to go.

Please pack them up.

- I'll bring your order to you. - Thank you.

My gosh.

SPOTTED THE SIGNED CD CASES

- Chung Kyung-hwa. - Chung Kyung-hwa.

CHUNG KYUNG-WHA LEGENDARY KOREAN VIOLINIST

- Did Chung Kyung-wha visit here? - Yes.

She lives on this side of the hill.

- Really? - Yes.

SHE'S IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD?

- It's incredible. - She might've moved away

but she signed our CDs when she came by.

That's incredible.

So this is a really nice area.

HOPE WE RUN INTO HER

- Are they here? - No, they're gone.

All clear.

MEANWHILE, TROUBLE SEEMS TO BE BREWING IN THE HOUSE

- You sure about going in? - Can we just barge in like this?

- Is anyone there? - There's no one here.

- Are they here? - No, they're gone. All clear.

- You sure about going in? - Can we just barge in like this?

Is anyone there?

What a nice room.

CUBBY LODGER IS JEALOUS

This is Da-hee's... No, it's Do-yeon's room.

CLICK

HE'S TAKING PHOTOS OUT OF THE BLUE

Take a shot of this spot, Keun-suk.

- Here? - Let's say it went under the bed.

COOKING UP A DETAILED SCHEME

WHAT KIND OF PLOT IS THIS TRIO HATCHING?

RIGHT THEN!

SOO-JIN COMES OUT TO THE LIVING ROOM

That's the wrong switch.

Three shots should be enough, right?

- There is a gap... - Someone's coming.

IF THEY CATCH US, WE'RE SCREWED! RUN!

THE TRIO RUNS INTO SOO-JIN IN THE END

IS THIS IT FOR THEM?

- We did it. - My heart is racing.

- It's perfect. - You guys pulled it off?

- Yes, we have so many photos. - Really? Let's see them.

- We can say it went under her bed. - That's a good shot.

Or we can have it sit on her chair.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

- Can we try something? - What?

You know

the prank using photos edited by AI chatbots.

- I've seen the viral videos. - Did you?

- The AI prank. - It's fascinating.

- They're fun. - So...

- Check your message. - What's the matter?

They came into our place.

- They came into our place? - Yeah.

How could you put them on my bed?

I didn't put them there.

Don't tell me they pooped in my room.

LAUGHING ON MUTE

We could say that pigeons came in

and surprise them.

Da-hee will likely fall for it.

Let's plan it step-by-step.

- The prompt matters the most. - Got it.

Give it detailed instructions.

Let's say...

Add a nest of pigeons

- To the photo. - into the photo.

- Feed it this prompt. - Let's do this.

- It's generating image. - Generating image.

OLDIES AMAZED BY THE NEW TECH

- I'll make another sample. - Go ahead.

We can make a bunch since only we get to see them.

- It worked. - Mine is ready.

Is it any good?

CURIOUS

The pigeons are too large.

I did ask for a nest

- but that's too much. - It looks fake.

But they sure look like real pigeons.

GOODNESS!

Guys, look at the delicate shading.

HE'LL FAINT AT SELF-DRIVING CARS

What's up?

- Hey, that won't do. - We've got a killer right here.

- We've got a killer right here. - Hey!

I can ask it to make it smaller.

Oh, man.

TWO GIANT COCKROACHES

- This looks fake, too. - What have you got there?

- Pigeon droppings. - There are too many, right?

Way too many.

- Is four too many? - Keep it simple.

- Yes, it's almost like... - Hang on.

In that case...

This is pretty fun.

- I told you. - I get it.

Kids do it all the time nowadays.

- I hit the jackpot. - What is it?

What do you think?

- It's good. - Show me.

- It looks pretty realistic. - I want to see, too.

It looks more realistic because it's blurry.

This is good.

- It's the best. - I like it.

How did you get the blurry image?

I asked it to give the photo a sense of urgency.

- A sense of urgency. - A sense of urgency.

We can say it went to Da-hee's room.

- After passing Do-yeon's room? - Good.

- We'll send this one first. - Okay.

- It sounds good. - I also like the idea.

What can we say next?

- Send that photo first. - Yes.

We can make more after checking how they react.

I'll share this on our group chat.

Say, "Shut the front door. A pigeon flew into the house."

"SHUT THE FRONT DOOR"? SO OLD-FASHIONED

PROUD OF HIMSELF

I'm having a blast.

- Photo sent. - All right.

WILL DO-YEON AND DA-HEE FALL FOR THE AI-GENERATED PHOTO?

It might be nothing.

There's no way.

Since that's the case...

THE MESSAGE WAS SHARED WITH THEM!

SHOCKED

What's up?

DA-HEE CHECKS THE MESSAGE

- Hold on. - A pigeon flew into our place.

What's this?

Just a second.

DEAD SERIOUS

AHN JAE-HYEON UNREAL! A PIGEON FLEW IN!

Isn't this your room?

Is it really?

Isn't it?

Hang on.

It looks like your room.

Did I leave the door open?

LIPS GOING DRY FROM NERVES

- It can be a good sign. - Hey, look.

My gosh.

THEY RECEIVE THE SECOND PHOTO

- What's this? - Hey, it's your room!

AHN JAE-HYEON IT'S GONE INTO YOUR GUYS' ROOMS

It must've gone to your room from my room.

CHANGES HER ATTITUDE RIGHT AWAY

SIGHS

IMAGINE DA-HEE'S SPOTLESS ROOM

FILLED WITH A FLOCK OF PIGEONS

THE FOOTAGE HAS AI-GENERATED CONTENT

STRESS LEVEL SPIKING

What on earth?

What's going on?

TRYING HER BEST NOT TO LOSE HER COOL

Let's do rock-paper-scissors to decide who calls them.

- I said we should. - A call will seal the deal.

Yes, exactly.

- Let's do rock-paper-scissors first. - Rock-paper-scissors?

- Okay. - All of us are doing it?

You snooze, you lose.

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

THE BURDEN FALLS ON JAE-HYEON WHO'S THE WORST LIAR AMONG THEM

AS LONG AS IT'S NOT ME

Give us your method acting!

Show us how it's done, Jae-hyeon!

They might actually believe it if you tell them the news.

- Exactly. - You're the calmest of us all.

- I'm the last person they'd believe. - Right.

- Same here. - You have to do it.

Tell them we're after the pigeons.

But the four of us failed to catch it

and the staff has gotten involved.

I'll use a gentle tone.

- Why? - Listen.

Someone who is usually calm needs to make a big fuss.

- We can then add some sound effects. - That's the way to go.

- I told you so. - Now, let's practice.

This is the rehearsal.

- So, the call went through. - Okay.

READY, ACTION

Hey, Da-hee.

- What do we do? It's a big mess! - Hey!

- It just won't come out! - Open the door, Daniel!

THE OTHERS MAKE A BIG FUSS NEARBY

- Wait. - Open the door, Daniel!

Hey, right there!

Throw a blanket over it.

People muttering and acting up!

WITNESS THE PASSIONATE PERFORMANCE OF VETERAN ACTORS

WHO HAVE 76 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN TOTAL

I'll hang up after that.

There we go.

REHEARSAL COMPLETE

- This should do it. - We've got to do it like that.

Guys, we're all set. We don't need to send more photos.

- It's time we called them. - Yes, let's do that.

Da-hee's old-school, so she'll like calls.

Let's keep our distance.

- Right, our voices should echo. - We're gathered too close.

- Okay, I'm calling her now. - Do it.

I'll be over here.

I'm going to run.

ON STANDBY SLIGHTLY APART JUST AS THEY PLANNED

- Hey, it's coming down! - Not just yet.

- Get it! - Hold on.

ALREADY IN CHARACTER EVEN BEFORE DA-HEE PICKS UP

Hang on.

Just a second.

TOTALLY DEDICATED

- She hasn't picked up yet? - Not yet.

DA-HEE ISN'T ANSWERING

Should I call Do-yeon instead?

- We could call her. - I'll give it a go.

After all this hard work, we'll need a nap.

SHE ANSWERED!

- No, wait! - Get it!

SHE ANSWERED!

- No, wait! - Get it!

We'll need a nap.

STARTLED INTO SPITTING OUT THE GRAPE

AWAY IT GOES

WILD COMMOTION

You guys haven't caught the pigeon yet?

I'm sorry, but just a second.

- You really haven't had luck yet? - Wait!

- What's going on? - Excuse me.

Is it because of the pigeon?

- Can you stand aside? - Is everything all right?

- What do we do? - Should we go back?

- Yeah. - I'll get it.

- Hello? Do-yeon! - Back there!

WHAT'S WITH ALL THIS BODY LANGUAGE? THEY'RE NOT ON A VIDEO CALL

Do-yeon, it's going crazy here. I don't know what to do.

Step aside, please.

What's the matter? Is it still in the house?

It's too big.

- It's too big? - You have no idea.

Hang on. I can't even...

It's going to fly. Open the door!

Open the door, for goodness' sake.

21-YEAR VETERAN ACTOR'S PIGEON PERFORMANCE

What do we do?

We'll be there to help.

HASTILY PREPARING TO LEAVE

- It's a mess. - Wait, this is an actual emergency.

Just a second.

- Could you please... - Do you need them in a to-go cup?

Do you think you can catch a pigeon?

I've never tried it. Have you caught one before?

I've fed them shrimp crackers.

- You must be talking about seagulls. - Am I?

GET IT TOGETHER

Seagulls?

I guess they look similar.

- They're all birds, after all. - That's true.

- Here are your drinks. - All right.

- Thank you. - Please come again.

Thank you.

MINDING THEIR MANNERS EVEN IN A KEYED-UP STATE

- Are they struggling to catch it? - It seems like it.

What do we do?

ACTORS WITH 76 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE ARE STILL COMMITTED TO THE BIT

- It's time you got it, guys! - She hung up.

- What did she say? - So?

She asked us to get it and then hung up.

She sensed we couldn't really talk, so she hung up.

We were just doing our parts here. You didn't have to join us.

- Listen, I was out here. - You could've stayed outside.

- I talked to them from here. - What did you say?

- Tell us. - "It went into your room.

It's so huge."

Who hung up first?

What if they're pranking us somehow?

Do-yeon hung up, okay?

I didn't do it.

She reacted and hung up.

- You could've led them on... - Exactly.

You had to let us know what was going on in the call.

We could've settled down gradually

- and then listened in. - Should I call one more time?

Let's tell them it pooped on its way out.

It left, but not before pooping.

- Why don't you call her? - I'll do it.

PASSING THE BURDEN TO SOO-JIN

GETTING INTO CHARACTER

I feel like I need a nap.

- I'm exhausted. - Da-hee.

Hey, Soo-jin.

- Da-hee. - What's up?

- Where are you? - What?

We're on our way home.

It's crazy, Da-hee. We had such a big drama here.

A big drama because of the pigeon?

Yes, you know what?

It pooped in your room.

It pooped in your room.

- Don't lie to me. - What's wrong?

Just...

Get a photo, guys.

- Hey... - Come on, hurry.

- What's wrong? - Can you run, Do-yeon?

What happened?

- Darn it. - What's this about?

Are you serious?

It pooped in my room!

- Oh, no. - I'm losing my mind.

How tactless.

It should have gone in my room.

Oh, you poor thing.

Give us a bit more time. We're actually running home.

We'll be right there.

- I'll switch my room with you. - Do-yeon.

What a dumb bird, right?

TEARFULLY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP

I mean...

HURRYING HOME AT THE SHOCKING NEWS

I mean, just...

They must be nearby.

DING-DONG

Guys, go hide in there.

Remember my dream?

About that dream with the bats.

Maybe I should just go back home.

No, it will be fine.

I didn't realize the café was so far away.

We're here now.

- Guys. - Did you catch it?

Well, we did.

- You got it? - But your rooms are a mess.

Check if they look all right. Go on, Da-hee.

Well, mine looks...

It looks fine to me.

DO-YEON RELAXES

5 SECONDS BEFORE THEY LEARN THE TRUTH

4, 3, 2, 1...

Was it a prank?

- So it didn't poop in your room? - Guys.

- You should of... - Da-hee almost cried.

MIMICKING A PIGEON

PIGEON KEUN-SUK JUMPS OUT FROM HIS HIDING PLACE

- What on earth? - Seriously...

- See? He got the job done. - Where's the pigeon?

This is what I'm talking about!

What was that pigeon in the photo?

It was an AI-generated photo.

- Was it fake? - They used the AI for that!

- Seriously? - The AI chatbot made it for us.

Chilling, right?

- Are you okay? - Did you fall for it?

Neat, right?

RELIEVED TO FIND IT WAS A PRANK

- Guys, Da-hee almost cried. - For real?

After hearing about the poop...

- She was this close to wailing. - I considered leaving.

I wondered, "Could this room be cursed for me or what?"

Then, Soo-jin said the bird even pooped.

I had to draw a line at that.

I considered leaving this place.

I mean it.

I would've cried if it had actually happened.

Seriously.

Pull a stunt like this again and I'll freaking kill you guys.

SUCCESSFUL AI PRANK ENDS WITH A CHILLING WARNING

She said she'd kill us if we tried this again.

We missed you that badly, that's all.

Didn't I tell you we shouldn't try it, Soo-jin?

- You had fun, too. - Gosh, that looks so good.

- She looks anxious. - You're the worst.

ANOTHER HAPPY DAY WITH THE FAM

Wait, so should I serve rice now?

Yes, please.

CURRY IS ALSO READY

Hey, it looks delicious.

It looks special with the corn.

It kind of reminds me of soup.

- The witch's soup, right? - Yeah.

I like that it's not too creamy.

Thank you.

- Everything's ready. - We're all set.

- Who fried the eggs? - Soo-jin.

- Soo-jin prepared everything. - Really?

- Kimchi looks amazing. - Right?

Curry and kimchi are a winning combo.

PERFECT PAIRING

- Bon appétit. - Bon appétit.

Please enjoy.

I should take a picture.

Everything looks so pretty.

VISUALLY, IT'S AMAZING! BUT WHAT ABOUT THE TASTE?

So? Is it good?

- It goes down smoothly, right? - It's so good.

- I love it. - I love the subtle spicy kick.

DELICIOUS

Ma'am.

- It's so good. - It's decent, right?

Yes.

- The corns are killers. - Agreed.

- That reminds me. - Oh, wow.

Da-hee might have a dance lesson later.

A dance lesson?

- Yes. - What kind of a dance?

I mentioned that I would like to take dance lessons with you guys

and shoot a dance challenge video.

Yes, I remember that.

There are so many genres, though.

There's this one dance I'd like to learn.

The dance for like JENNIE.

A SONG BY JENNIE, OF ALL PEOPLE?

I couldn't learn the moves from watching videos alone.

You need a tutor?

I feel like I could do it if a tutor gave me pointers.

What did you learn when you took lessons?

I learned the dance for Hwasa's song

Maria, for a dance challenge.

6 YEARS AGO, DA-HEE SHARED THIS VIDEO ON HER SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT

A PROMISING DANCER WANNABE SOURCE: LEE DA-HEE HERSELF

STILL SO PASSIONATE

SHE MEANS BUSINESS

It's just...

With good pointers...

- You need a good tutor. - Yes.

I want to learn from good tutors.

All right, then.

Let me see what I can do.

What have you got?

Are you familiar with Nika?

Who is this?

As in the dancer Monika.

From Street Woman Fighter?

Are you talking about Ms. Monika?

I'm friends with her.

You're close enough to call her by a nickname?

We talk casually.

We appeared on the same shows and even had meals together.

- I'm a huge fan. - I'll ask if she's free.

Nika did mention that she'd have some free time in February.

Were you able to get her on board?

Sure.

- She's really available? - Yeah.

EXCITED

It's incredible.

UPSIDE OF HAVING HOUSEMATES THEIR FRIENDS CAN BE MY FRIENDS

What's the genre, though?

Sports dancing?

- Sports dancing with this? - What sports dance is this?

Well...

Something like jitterbug?

They do this for jitterbug?

They must be learning slow dancing as a birthday gift for you.

No way.

- Seriously? - Really?

That's what you're learning?

- Something trendy. - Like hip-hop?

- Hip-hop? - So hip-hop?

You don't need lessons for that.

- It's all about the groove. - I know that

but I can't groove on my own

so I'm going to ask Ms. Monika to...

- Teach you how to free-style? - Yes, a bit.

Ms. Monika?

I bet Do-yeon is great with hip-hop.

Let me come with you.

You saw my passion for dancing, right?

TRYING TO WIN HER OVER

Oh, right.

OOPS, I FORGOT

I should show off my one-kicks and two-kicks.

- They suit you. I bet you'd slay. - I haven't heard them in ages.

The secret about those moves

is that tall people can't do them so well.

What are they, anyway?

Have you never heard of them?

What are they?

Have you not read the comic series Hip-Hop?

- No. - Chills.

- You know it, right? - I've read it a million times.

The first three moves we see are one-kick, two-kick

- and a handstand called "Nikes." - Show them.

Can't we get a demonstration, Soo-jin?

- Show them how it's done. - Okay.

This spot right here is always ready for you, Soo-jin.

I'll take this chair out.

Here's the one-kick.

There's nothing much to it.

This is it.

Hey, you're good.

For two-kick, you've got to do this.

I'm not great with two-kicks.

Here's the Thomas flare.

THAT'S AN ADVANCED SKILL!

What's going on?

- She's the real deal. - Hey, you're pretty good.

Hey, Da-hee.

Why don't you learn from her?

I'm not that good.

- Hey, you have a talent. - It's just that when I was young

I badly wanted to become a singer.

That was my dream, you see.

What songs did you dance to back in the day?

Shinhwa's music, of course.

- So you grew up with Shinhwa. - Troubleshooter?

Let's Go or T.O.P?

Troubleshooter?

TROUBLESHOOTER IS THE BEST SONG OF SHINHWA!

I danced to many of H.O.T's songs.

- Like what? - My goodness.

- Warrior's Descendants is intense. - Candy.

Candy?

When I was in elementary school, we danced to We Are The Future.

- Did you dance as well? - Well...

Are you a dancer, too?

Oh, well...

I know the moves to We Are The Future.

At first, you stand like this.

Oh, wow.

CHANNELING 12-YEAR-OLD DANIEL

A TRIP DOWN THE MEMORY LANE

HERE ARE HYUK'S ENDEAVORS

DANCE MACHINE

RIGHT UP THE ALLEY FOR FANS OF H.O.T.

IN THE ZONE

There's a move like that.

BOUNCE

OLD AGE BRINGING HIM DOWN...

He's got it, all right.

That's true, but...

BUT HIS OLD AGE...

You get the idea, right?

- Of course! - You got it, right?

ENCORE PERFORMANCE OUT OF JOY

- The whole team held this pose. - Hey, you're good.

- You have a talent, dude. - Yeah.

He's a good dancer.

That's the opening move.

- Really? - Sure.

THERE'S NO COOLING DOWN HIS BURNING PASSION

EVERYONE SINGING TOGETHER

Oh, man.

You're pretty good.

- You can say that again. - You've got a talent.

- I have? - Sure.

No one can deny that.

I MISS THE GOOD OLD DAYS

- He's surprisingly good. - Yeah.

Actually

I have a serious concern.

- What's up? - It's because...

- What's this about? - It's because...

DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG AGAIN?

AM I GETTING AN EARFUL AGAIN?

I checked out a blind date for Daniel.

- The group date? - Yeah.

- What? - What's this?

ON DAY ONE, DANIEL SHARED HIS HOUSE SQUAD GOALS

One is a group date

where people use their personal items to select their partners.

Like a group date

- in our college days? - Yes.

I never got to go on a group date like that.

This will be a first for me.

The first group date in my life.

I so badly wanted to try one.

Imagine a group of young people enjoying something sweet

and then taking out a personal item each.

BELATEDLY DREAMING OF A HEART-FLUTTERING EXPERIENCE

You get the idea, right?

Just like a college kid on campus, I'd wear a check-patterned shirt

and a crossbody bag.

That's what I had in mind.

At the ripe age of 40?

EMBARRASSED

One of the programs I found

is called "Off To Buddhist Temple."

- What? - I've heard of that.

The group date takes place in a Buddhist temple.

- You have to be there. - Sounds nice.

You will follow Buddhist teachings

and get to know the people there.

NOVEL GROUP DATE IDEA WITH HIGH SUCCESS RATE

- Really? - I've heard of that.

It's a really hot program.

- You'd do the 108 bows together? - Yes, that's one option.

There's another one that takes place in a skiing resort.

GROUP DATE OPTION 2. OFF TO SNOWY SKI SLOPES

MORE THAN 200 APPLICANTS?

ENJOY YOUR FAVORITE SPORT AND FIND LOVE AT THE SAME PLACE!

It's called ski dates.

That's a thing now?

No way.

- Ski? - Yes, I've come across ski dates.

Finally, pottery dates.

- What are they? - Do people make pottery?

Just like in Ghost.

THRILL OVERLOAD

HE'S EXCITED

The pottery dates are the most popular.

GROUP DATE OPTION 3. ENJOYING A DATE WHILE MAKING POTTERY

AMONG THE COUNTLESS REVIEWS

ARE STORIES ABOUT HOW PEOPLE FOUND THE LOVE OF THEIR LIFE!

Apparently, the pottery dates

- have a high success rate. - Of matchmaking?

TEMPTED

I'd love to go on a pottery date.

- Sounds neat, right? - Yeah.

Here's the sign-up site, Daniel.

Incredible.

YOU MUST SIGN UP ONLINE

SHAPE YOUR LOVE AS YOU SHAPE YOUR POTTERY

Q1. INDICATE YOUR GENDER Q2. SELECT TIME AND DATE

You need to give them your preferred nickname, too.

Really?

"Enter your date of birth."

DOUBLE-CHECKING

People born in 1984 can't apply at all?

There's an age limit.

It's only open to people born between 1985 and 1995.

- The year 1985 is the upper limit? - That was close.

So close indeed.

- Really? - We won't be able

- to sign up next year. - Look.

- I should try it, too. - Turn to arranged dates, then.

I should sign up soon, too.

I don't want to go there by myself.

Can't you guys join me?

You did say you wanted a group date.

- A GD. - A three-on-three date?

- Go as a group. - Have you had one?

I bet you haven't, Keun-suk.

I doubt he had one because he started working early.

You were a child actor, right?

No, I went on one in my freshman year in college.

Really?

Just once. It was a six-on-six date.

My gosh, six-on-six?

- Did it go well? - Remember Dandelion Land in Jongno?

- For sure! - Of course!

Dandelion Land.

Ever been to the business room there?

Gosh, Dandelion Land.

It was a classy place.

That brings up so many memories.

- Totally. - I made so many memories there.

IT ONLY REMAINS IN THEIR MINDS

Dandelion Land... My gosh.

Why don't the three of us sign up together?

- I can be your wingman. - You sure?

- Join us, Jae-hyeon. - Okay.

- Really? - Here's the funny part.

- Hit me. - You have to select a date and time.

One option is February 22nd, and the other is February 28th.

- Only one week to go? - The 22nd, you get it?

- It's Daniel's birthday. - Oh, right.

- What do you say? - Tomorrow?

- Tomorrow? - It's his day tomorrow.

- That's true. - Won't that make it memorable?

- Tomorrow? - Do it then.

- Yes, have a date on his birthday. - Okay, then.

- You sure? - Of course.

You have to upload a photo taken in the last three months.

- A recent passport photo? - That's a requirement.

Why don't I take a shot now and use that photo

to make it authentic?

WHAT ON EARTH?

I MADE ALL THE EFFORTS TO LOOK UP THESE PROGRAMS...

- What's the matter? - That's so wrong.

That's so wrong.

- Use a photo where you look sharp. - Yes, do that.

How's this, then?

- I took it on my way here. - Hey, it's cute.

- You look cute there. - I do?

- That's a cute one. - Yeah.

I'll go with this, then.

I don't like it, though.

- You don't approve? - You don't?

What's the matter?

- It's pretty good. - It's not good enough.

I don't look sharp in photos, though.

I'm not that kind of guy.

People don't really offer to take pictures.

All I've got are mirror selfies.

But they look cool.

- The mirror selfies? - Yes, they give off great vibes.

But they look cool.

- The mirror selfies? - Yes, they give off great vibes.

MIRROR SELFIES GIVE OFF GREAT VIBES?

A MIRROR

DANIEL'S ATTEMPT AT A MIRROR SELFIE WITH GOOD VIBES

HE LOOKS RATHER WEIRD, THOUGH

TRIES TO GET INTO THE RIGHT MOOD...

SNAP!

IT'S FUNNY EVEN TO HIS OWN EYES

How's this, guys?

JUST A MIRROR SELFIE WITHOUT GOOD VIBES

I took it just now.

Look at this.

- What's up with you? - Let me see.

No goofing off, okay?

Also, why would you hold your camera so low?

- You should hold it up like this. - Why ruin your fine face?

Why ruin your fine face?

What made you guys so mad?

- All right, my bad. - His outfit is too casual.

What's the matter?

Shall we take one for him now?

What made you guys so mad?

We know he can look better.

We'd like him to look as fine in the photo he uploads.

- Might as well make an effort. - Exactly.

TRYING AGAIN AFTER THE TOP-DOWN INSTRUCTIONS

All right, then.

Shoot it from above?

How do I do that?

HE'S LOST ON HOW TO HOLD HIS CAMERA

From the top.

LITERALLY HOLDS THE CAMERA ABOVE HIM

IS THIS THE RIGHT APPROACH, THOUGH?

RETURNS GET AN APPROVAL

Have you got one?

It looks so weird with the camera above me.

- Are you messing with me? - I don't get it.

How else am I supposed to hold the camera up?

- Let me see. - How am I supposed to

- hold the camera up? - It's giving...

- Hey. - Yeah?

Are you slow or what?

What else was I supposed to do?

- You can't hold it above you. - Not like that.

HUGE SETBACK EVEN BEFORE THE DATE

Hold it like this for a chic photo

not like this.

Hold it like this. It's stylish that way.

- Get a mirror selfie. - Okay.

- Like this? - Yes, get a cool shot.

There you go.

FACIAL MUSCLES NOT WORKING

What's with the expression?

- Don't make that face, okay? - It's too embarrassing.

Don't be. Be cool about it like this.

That's it.

Good.

Put on a natural smile. There you go.

SMILES

FAILS TO REIN IT IN

ATTEMPTS AT FOLLOWING DA-HEE'S INSTRUCTION FOR A SELFIE

STRUGGLING TO APPEAR CHIC

TIME FOR A REALITY CHECK

PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER, YOU HAVE A DATE TO GO TO

GOOD VIBES...

MORE CONFIDENT THAN EARLIER

How's this?

It's better, right?

- No way. - It's another no?

It won't do at all.

Let me see.

The one from the van looks best.

- The one with the glasses. - You think so?

Just something natural.

Like snaps from your daily life.

THESE TWO ARE GETTING STRESSED

This is frustrating.

THE WINGMEN HAVE A SERIOUS LOOK ON THEIR FACES

- Are you going through photos? - Yeah.

- It's cute how they're so into it. - I can't even...

THEY RELUCTANTLY AGREED TO GO

What do you think about this photo from the gym?

- Like, "This is me working out." - It doesn't look like you.

Really? It doesn't?

- You look too relaxed there. - I see.

You know the goal, right?

You have to look chic but natural, like it didn't take much effort.

Something casual but cool, like a snap from a café, you know.

You have to look stylish but effortlessly so.

- That's important. - Okay.

This isn't easy. Effortlessly stylish?

THEY ARE HARD TO PLEASE

Why don't I go with this?

- I like it. - This is it for me.

I like it. That's a good one.

- Hey, you look really good. - One settled.

- Great. - Actually, two settled.

LOOKING GRAVE

How's this?

I was just looking at it.

- Yes, that one. Isn't it okay? - It's okay.

- It has the vibe ladies appreciate. - It's not bad.

Why are you giving me that look?

It has the vibe...

BRING IT HERE!

Why are you giving me that look?

- It's got those qualities. - I'm saying no.

- Why? - Because of the energy.

You look too intense here. Women might feel intimidated.

I want you to look more relaxed.

You know what, Da-hee?

Everyone tells me I'm too intense, regardless of whatever I do.

They got you wrong.

- Really? - You're actually a dummy. So...

ASIA DUMMY

Pardon?

WAS THAT A COMPLIMENT OR AN INSULT?

How's this?

FOUND A NEW PICTURE OPTION

I think that's better than this one.

He looks relaxed.

- But I think... - But his eyes...

I love everything about this photo

but the brand's logo is a major turn-off.

Isn't this pretty good?

Since we're going to be selecting one of his most recent photos...

- That's good. - Let's go with this one.

It's pretty cute.

- Go for this. - It captured him well, too.

How's this?

I think we should only consider recent photos.

- I like this one. - I agree.

He looks the same as he does now.

Don't I look pretty natural here?

Hey, I like it.

- I had it shot without thinking. - I see that.

- This is better. Use this. - I like it.

- Is this the one? - Let me see.

Show it to me.

It's good.

- Should I upload my photo? - Shall we?

- Hitting the button now. - Let's go.

Done!

FINALLY SUBMITTED THE PHOTO

What nickname are you using? Hyuk?

Me?

Nicknames can matter

because you stick with them before you actually meet the person.

We don't share our given names?

- No. - You use nicknames only at first.

So they won't realize it's us before we actually meet them.

I suppose so.

How's Ultim8H0ttie? Reminds you of old-school messengers.

LAUGHS, SIGHS

Like a username?

- Ultim8H0ttie. - That's cute.

What about Seongsu-dong Fire Punch?

I remember that style.

- Bulgwang-dong Cooking Oil. - Right.

DEEP IN THOUGHT

How's NeatBoy?

Pretty neat!

Gugi-dong NeatBoy?

Gugi-dong NeatBoy...

"Hello, I'm Gugi-dong NeatBoy.

I hear you're looking for neat little fun."

"Let me spice things up for you."

- "I've got neat little magic." - "Neat little magic"?

I guess I could use Americano.

- Americano? - As in coffee.

- Coffee? - Is it a bad idea?

SEEKING APPROVAL AGAIN

You don't look like a coffee guy.

- How's Shiro? - Okay, great.

- That's a cute one. - Sold.

- I like the idea. - Suppose you use that nickname

meet someone you click with

and her nickname turns out to be Shin-chan.

CAN IT BE

Things might work out.

A FATEFUL ENCOUNTER?

I'm putting ideas in his head.

I'll go with Shiro.

It'd be kind of great

if nicknames matched.

This is a difficult business.

You can give off an intelligent vibe with something like Writer Choi.

- Sounds good to me. - You've been writing screenplays.

You can tell them, "I've been writing screenplays."

- I'm going with Writer Choi. - Good.

Do I stick with AP all the way?

- Go for it. - Stick with it.

- It represents my identity best. - Sure.

- Of course. - Right.

WRITER CHOI, SHIRO, AP

3-TO-3 DATE, HERE WE COME!

Can you guess what's on the next page?

It's a question about our ideal type

and lists the qualities we want in our partner.

It's so long.

Dang, the list is so detailed.

Can I take a look?

If you get a match after all these questions...

- It'd be so nice. - Exactly.

- I bet you'll click, too. - I bet you'll end up being an item.

- I'm curious about Jae-hyeon's type. - Me too.

I'm going with a nice smile, a kind heart, and good looks.

That's about it.

I also want someone with a nice smile.

I'll also include good looks and fair skin.

No, scratch that.

Polished.

- That's about it? - Yeah.

- What about you? - Someone with a nice smile

a kind heart, cute, fair skin, clear skin...

Do you have a specific woman in mind?

No, I just selected options

- that appealed to me. - You want all those qualities?

I also checked casual and stylish.

7 QUALITIES IN TOTAL

I wonder what kind of people you'll meet tomorrow.

I hear that an application doesn't guarantee a callback.

Of course not.

You might not make the cut.

- The date isn't guaranteed? - No.

- Some might not get a date? - The date isn't guaranteed.

Freaking really?

THAT IS...

Freaking really?

Like being screened by bouncers?

WE NEVER CONSIDERED THAT...

Imagine you guys going, "Why are you still here, Jae-hyeon?"

Cue tears.

SOMEONE DIDN'T MAKE THE CUT

- "Why are you here?" - In the morning

you'd see him and go, "Why aren't you dressed yet?

Go get dressed already. What are you talking about?"

"Hey, Keun-suk."

DID YOU NOT MAKE THE CUT?

You're the worst.

"Could it be..."

That's what I hear. The dating market is so rough.

That's hilarious.

I'm curious if they'll get a match.

What are you wearing if you do get a date tomorrow?

I'm thinking something casual.

- My dream date - Oh, I get it.

is something like a group date of college kids.

- In a casual shirt? - Yeah.

- Young and fresh? - Exactly.

In jeans and a casual shirt over a white T-shirt

with a crossbody bag.

I got an inspiration for my look.

- What is it? - I'll show it to you.

- Bring it here. - Check it out for me.

Just so you know, you might not get a match.

AWAY YOU GO, BAD LUCK

What jacket are you wearing?

Just whatever I brought with me.

Come on, you can't do that.

Did you bring enough clothes?

Are you not planning to get married?

If you don't meet your fiancée through this...

We've been over this already!

You're not leaving here until you get married!

Get married while you're here.

You're blushing like crazy. Oh, hey.

I'm too dumbfounded to...

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT AP'S DATE LOOK?

NO SUITABLE COMMENT COMES TO MIND

EVEN AHN-GEL SAYS NOTHING

COMPLETE SILENCE

- So pretty. - But...

THE SHORT COMMENT AFTER LONG SILENCE

BREAKS HIM

You look elegant.

- Simply too elegant. - Too elegant.

- You look like a wealthy newlywed. - You look too elegant.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS A WINNING ENSEMBLE

I don't want to hurt your feelings

but remember when I showed these guys my tanned look here?

It was the same response as just now.

SAME RESPONSE

It suits him, though.

- I mean the fancy ensemble. - Sure.

But don't go all out, Keun-suk.

- You really don't need to do that. - Yeah.

Do you want to try it, Daniel?

Okay, let's swap our jackets. You can try mine.

Wear this casual jacket.

- You both look great. - Looking good, guys.

- They look pretty good, right? - Keun-suk actually looks cute.

I prefer him dressed down

looking relaxed.

This runs kind of large. I like it.

Show us what you're going to wear in the evening

- like a rehearsal. - So

prepare your ensemble while we go take the dance lesson.

- All right. - We'll prepare an overview.

We'll look into our wardrobe and come up with ideas.

- Great. - We'll review them.

What if you don't get matched after going through all this trouble?

- The excitement makes it worth it. - The six of us can have a party.

We'll take out our personal items for you.

SPRING IN HER STEPS

Dang, what should I wear?

Do-yeon, I'm so excited that you're joining me.

BUT DO-YEON

NEEDS HELP CHOOSING THE RIGHT OUTFIT

- What should I wear? - Let's see.

BOUNCY STEPS SAYS ALL ABOUT HOW EXCITED SHE IS

Whatever I got screams "no dancer."

"No dancer"?

You're lending me your outfit?

- For me? - Yippie!

UPSIDE OF HOUSE SHARE? YOU CAN SHARE CLOTHES, TOO!

- Da-hee. - Yes?

Do you have eyeliner?

Eyeliner? Just a second.

Do you know how to apply it?

- Not really. - What?

Have you never tried it yourself?

Not at all?

DO-YEON HAS NEVER PUT ON EYELINER BY HERSELF BEFORE

I was going to wing it.

It'd turn out weird, then.

Take a seat.

DA-HEE'S BEAUTY SALON IS BACK IN BUSINESS

Open your eyes.

DO-YEON IS GETTING AN EDGY LOOK THANKS TO DA-HEE'S TOUCHES

I extended a wing.

Sounds great.

No one will dare mess with you now.

DA-HEE HAS BIG PLANS WHEN IT COMES TO MAKEUP LOOKS

Do you usually wear mascara?

- No. - Can I skip it, then?

- Want to wear it? - Yes.

Really?

TODAY, DO-YEON FEELS LIKE MAKING BOLD CHOICES

WHEN YOU HAVE HOUSEMATES

YOU EVEN GET TO TRY A LOOK YOU WOULDN'T GO FOR USUALLY

Can I draw some moles, too?

- If you want... - What's your thing with moles?

Why do you like it so much?

Well...

- You can wipe it off. - Is it another makeup session?

She wants to draw moles again.

- You're looking fierce today. - And then...

- In a good way? - Sure.

You look like a hip-hop girlie.

FIERCELY WORRIED

Want to wear colored contacts, too? I can give you some.

- Colored contacts? - You're wearing them, too?

These are in gray, and these are in brown.

Can I wear some too, Da-hee?

Sure. Which color do you want?

This is how it goes, right?

- Exactly. - Aim higher.

There you go.

Don't blink.

- There you go. - It's there.

- Good job. - You're all set.

- You're going for an odd-eyed look? - Yeah.

GRAY, BROWN

WAY TOO BOLD! AN ODD-EYED LOOK, NO LESS

- Should we all follow suit? - Yes, I'd like that.

- Really? - Yeah, I dig it.

AN ODD-EYED GIRL GROUP

- Do-yeon. - Yeah?

Do you have towels you'd like to wash?

- I'm going to wash them now. - Towels?

HOUSEKEEPING SERVICE FOR THE LADIES GOING OUT

Thanks.

I'll have them washed

- Thanks. - during your dance lesson.

- Okay. - Hang on.

Who's your tutor anyway?

What's with the makeup?

I've never seen either of you look like this.

Think of it as our armor.

Is it armor?

You want to look tough?

Do-yeon is even wearing a belly shirt.

No one calls it a belly shirt anymore.

- What's it called, then? - Crop top.

Crop top, of course.

- Crop top? - Sure.

It's my first time seeing Do-yeon wearing contacts.

- Guess he noticed. - He caught that.

PERCEPTIVE TO HER SLIGHT CHANGES

Take a close look at our contacts.

I wondered why your eyes all looked bluish.

- You got them in different shades? - Yes, I'm odd-eyed now.

- We all chose different colors. - You all went for that look?

- Are we leaving now? - Yes, let's go.

- We should get going. - You look so glamorous.

- What do you think? - I like it. You look cool.

We'll amaze the world with our dance. Or someone, at least.

You guys do seem like you're all talk.

All talk?

- We'll go to get our dance craze. - Got it.

"Dance craze"?

Let's go get our dance craze.

- Here we go. - Let's go.

Let's go own it.

Charismatic hip-hop.

I should be dancing at Bulgwang station.

When it comes to dance, all it takes is confidence.

You look cool from the back, Soo-jin.

Let's go crush it.

WE ARE A LADIES GROUP

CHUCKLING

Let's go.

I'll drive.

GAINING NEW EXPERIENCES THANKS TO HOUSEMATES

Team Odd Eyes, let's go.

All right.

We observe this world with different perspectives.

That's why we're called "Odd Eyes." What do you say?

Are you a genius of what?

You're brilliant.

You're so kind.

We see the world with different perspectives?

MEANWHILE, THE MAIN DANCER IS PUTTING ON MAKEUP

FOCUSED

FLICKS A GLANCE

She skipped her makeup to do mine.

Don't worry about it, Do-yeon. I'm making progress just fine.

In the car, though?

COMMON SCENE IN WOMEN'S CARS

I'll try to drive smoothly.

I WON'T SLAM ON THE BRAKES

Our tutors are undeniably amazing.

- Let's do our best, okay? - Sure.

To be honest, my heart is racing.

The two dancers you reached out to have always been my favorite.

When you called Ms. Monika by her nickname so casually earlier

my heart skipped a beat.

I can't thank you enough.

It's making my heart flutter.

It's an invaluable opportunity for us, certainly.

You bet it is.

When else could we learn from those great people?

ALL EXCITED ABOUT DA-HEE'S HOUSE SQUAD GOAL

- Thank you. - Welcome.

ARRIVED AT THE DANCE STUDIO WITH BEATING HEARTS!

What's the matter?

DO-YEON'S FRIENDS AND DANCE TUTORS ARE VISIBLE THROUGH THE CRACK

MONIKA LEADER OF THE DANCE CREW PROWDMON

LIP J NATION'S LEADING WAACKING DANCER

PRACTICING THE DANCE THEY'RE GOING TO TEACH THEM TODAY

What's the matter?

- What's wrong? - Are they right there?

- They're dancing. - Behind the door?

- Just behind the door? - Really?

MANAGED TO CRACK THE DOOR OPEN

BUT COULDN'T DARE ENTER THE STUDIO

NOTICES DA-HEE

RUSHING OVER TO GREET THEM

Why just stand there, Do-yeon?

Come right in!

- Do-yeon! - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

You're so beautiful.

Look, she's in sweats!

- I've never seen you like this. - Gosh, you're wearing contacts.

REMEMBERS TO SHOW OFF THE CONTACTS

ABASHED

- Love your red sweats. - Hello.

Hey, I have this T-shirt!

- I have it at home. - Really?

You're giving dancer vibes for sure.

- I've put some effort... - One hundred percent.

You came fully prepared for it.

Gosh, Do-yeon.

Since I'm the bridge between these two teams

- I'll give you all a briefing. - You're the bridge.

Actually, I asked for your help

because one of Da-hee's House Squad Goals is

to master the dance to like JENNIE

and shoot a video.

So that was Da-hee's goal.

For us tutors

we have to try something called a level test.

We have to determine how advanced we can go.

- Showcase all your skill sets here. - All of it.

- Show them one-kick and two-kick. - I can do it.

- Show them. - Let's see what you got.

What about the Thomas flare?

- Yes, try that. - Show them the Thomas flare...

Thomas flare?

Really?

THAT GOT HER HOPES UP

Yes, I can do Thomas flare. I'll sit on the floor

and spin around like this. This is it, right?

HIP-HOP DANCER WANNABE SHOWS OFF HER SKILLS

THAT'S MY FRIEND

First off, that was impressive.

How should I say this...

You'd do a wonderful job cleaning the floor, too.

- Of course. - And also...

I can sweep the whole studio if you'd like.

- Show us what you've got, Do-yeon. - You must have something.

ME?

THIS IS AN OLDIE TRYING TO AMUSE YOU

HER TUTORS BURST INTO LAUGHTER

HER FRIENDS TRY THEIR BEST NOT TO LAUGH TOO HARD

- You picked this up from somewhere. - You've watched some clips.

- Of course, I did. - Something like this...

I actually watched the clip of you dancing.

That's where it came from.

- And something like this. - You checked that out, too?

You didn't use the same-side arm and leg together, right?

ONE PERSON FAILS TO LAUGH WITH THE OTHERS

I'm sure you practiced a lot, Da-hee.

You must be prepared for this.

I'm not prepared at all.

That's why I came to learn, you see.

I must say...

PRESSURE IS GETTING TO HER

The way you're wearing that cap gives off the vibe of a dancer

with ten years under her belt.

- She's blending in perfectly, too. - In styling, yes.

Yeah, Da-hee. Go for it.

TUTORS TURN ON A RANDOM SONG

- Oh, great. - Love it.

NERVOUS

FEELING SHY

You've got this.

VIBING

Oh, my.

EMBARRASSMENT DOESN'T STOP HER FROM SHOWING HER SKILLS

- That's her instinct kicking in. - She's the best.

- Best by far! - Look at her go.

- Amazing! - What do I do?

You're the best!

- Amazing! - What do I do?

HERE GOES NOTHING

AS EXPECTED FROM OUR MAIN DANCER!

She's definitely the best.

DOMINATING THE FLOOR

- All right! - Oh, no.

Let's stop this, guys.

BUT HER BODY'S STILL MOVING

See? That's her instinct.

Great.

You have a passion for dancing.

Your body reacted to the tune instinctively.

We can now see who's an A-student and who's a C-student.

It seems there's a gap between the members' skills.

WHO GOT AN A AND WHO GOT A C?

Already?

There's no helping it.

JUST SMILING

We've learned the choreography of like JENNIE.

Our crew didn't work on it

but we did our homework for this class.

We studied it.

We wanted to give you a good lesson.

A MEGA HIT OF 2025 JENNIE'S LIKE JENNIE

THE POWERFUL DANCE TEMPTED SO MANY TO CREATE DANCE CHALLENGE VIDEOS

I admired the charismatic vibe

and felt like dancing, exuding that same energy myself.

ON THE OTHER HAND, HER FRIENDS ARE CONCERNED

What do we do?

You can do it.

Shall we try dancing to the music?

Just get the feel of the song.

PASSION IGNITED

Ready.

Pull your arms up.

BRIGHT EYED

THE MOST ANIMATED SHE'S BEEN EVER SINCE MOVING IN

Hands up. Left foot. Hands up. Right foot.

Can I add head flicks like this?

COULDN'T HELP BUT ADD A LITTLE PERSONAL TWIST

Sure, you can.

But not now.

- Who told you to act cool? - Sorry.

- Who gave you the go-ahead? - I just did it on reflex.

I felt like flexing a bit. I'm sorry.

In our field, we call it adding a flavor.

Adding a flavor?

- But... - She's going at it.

- That's because... - I really felt like doing this.

Is it possible to skip the basics and go straight to the flavor part?

That's possible.

But you have to promise us not to tell anyone we taught you.

I promise not to try to add my own flavor.

I'LL ADD FLAVOR LATER ON

After this, we get a series of danceable moves.

We'll open our knees

and swing our arms this way.

Like the chorus from Kim Hyun-jung's song?

A CALLBACK TO A 25-YEAR-OLD SONG

RECOGNIZED THE REFERENCE

We need to tell them that the knees must move in the opposite direction.

- If they move together like this... - Someone did that?

That'd be Kim Jeong-ryeol's bit.

It's his signature move.

My knees move in the same direction.

Who moved their knees together?

ME, MA'AM

I couldn't get my body to follow the moves.

SQUEAK, SQUEAK

HER HIPS WON'T FOLLOW HER DIRECTIONS

How do I do that?

INCURABLE CONDITION

I CAME TO SUPPORT MY HOUSEMATE

Just how...

AND MY CONFIDENCE IS TANKING

I SLAYED THE OLD DANCES...

THE NEW ONES DON'T VIBE WITH ME

In the plié squat position...

- Shall we, then? - Sure.

Here we go.

Ready.

LIKE DA-HEE

Push, push.

FOCUSED

Two.

Great.

ALMOST ADDED HER FLAVOR...

SUCKS IN AIR

THAT STOPPED THE URGE

Get your backpacks on. Now, kick.

To the back. Let's have fun.

To the side. Jump rope.

HER ENERGY LEVEL GOES UP AS THE SONG REACHES ITS CLIMAX

WE'RE GETTING A DÉJÀ VU

THE FAMILIAR MOVE HAS EXCITED HER

- Did you originate this dance? - That move?

Well, I wouldn't call it a dance.

It's more of a slapstick for laughs.

BETWEEN A DANCE AND A SLAPSTICK

I felt embarrassed about that part, so I changed it to this.

I'll stick to my bit.

CRACKING UP

It's sticking with me just fine.

I see the marks on my skin whenever I shower.

That's enough.

Honestly...

WHAT GOT YOU SO EXCITED, DO-YEON?

THIS INTROVERT WHO ONLY READS THE NEWSPAPER

HAS BECOME A NEW PERSON

SHE TAGGED ALONG AND FOUND HER ALTER EGO

All right.

Let's move on to Da-hee's favorite.

The hand gestures.

Form an L and bring it to the center.

I LOVE ADDING PERSONAL TOUCHES

FOCUSED

Then move to the right

and pop your chest four times.

This is a real challenge that will strain your abs.

And then... You nailed it, Soo-jin.

Isolation is her thing.

Isolation?

WITNESS MY DANCE SKILL

I FINALLY GOT TO THE PART WHERE MY TALENT CAN SHINE

EVEN MONIKA IS SURPRISED

AN ENCORE PERFORMANCE AFTER REGAINING HER CONFIDENCE

That reminds me of krumping.

- You're right. - Absolutely.

You're pretty knowledgeable.

I love watching people dance.

THIS IS KRUMP DANCE I PICKED UP BY WATCHING VIDEOS

MORE HYPED UP THAN DA-HEE

SQUEALS

SHOCKED BY THE VISUAL

It's all about confidence.

I actually dig it.

FINAL HURDLE BEFORE RECORDING THE VIDEO

Then, we go, thump, thump, thump, thump.

- Boom, up, up. Pop your chest. - Boom, up, up. Pop your chest.

- Thump, thump, thump. - Thump, thump, thump.

Da-hee's following along nicely.

MA'AM, I WANT A COMPLIMENT, TOO

RAISING HER ENERGY LEVEL IN RESPONSE

DO-YEON'S HIGH ENERGY IS CONTAGIOUS

WHOSE HOUSE SQUAD GOAL WAS THIS AGAIN?

NOT SURE ABOUT THE MOVES, BUT EVERYONE'S EXCITED

EXHAUSTED AFTER TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH DO-YEON

People hearing the audio only would think we're killing it.

Here's what we're going to do.

The viewers aren't likely to think, "Hey, they're good."

They'd likely go, "They seem mid

but I guess they're good, judging by their loud voices."

- We'll confuse them. - Great.

- We'll blow them away by the end. - Exactly.

WAIT AND SEE

It's all about confidence.

I love it.

AN ENERGETIC CHALLENGE VIDEO BY THE BOLD DANCERS COMING SOON

WHAT'S GOING ON IN GUGI-DONG HOUSE WITH ONLY GUYS STAYING BEHIND?

TWO KIDULTS ARE IN HIGH SPIRITS AFTER A GROCERY RUN

CAPTAIN PLANET AND THE PLANETEERS THEME SONG

SINGING TOGETHER

- We're home. - Welcome back.

TWO WARRIORS IN THEIR FORTIES ARE ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH

I see you bought a ton of stuff.

Look forward to dinner this evening.

What are you making?

Pork cutlet. We're having a fancy meal.

- For real? - Sure.

I love it.

GOOD

GOOD

- Is there a supermarket close by? - Yeah.

I see.

Gosh, it's a beautiful day.

The weather is perfect.

JAE-HYEON HAS COME TO THE YARD TO HANG THE LAUNDRY TO DRY

WARM SUNLIGHT AND WIND

PERFECT WEATHER TO DRY LAUNDRY OUT IN THE OPEN

That's what I'm talking about.

HOMEMAKER AHN FEELS MORE ENERGIZED THANKS TO THE GREAT WEATHER

I love the sound of the wind chime.

THE TINKLING SOUND OF THE WIND CHIME AT A BUDDHIST TEMPLE NEARBY

RINGS OUT INTO THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH THE HELP OF THE WIND

BUT...

THE SOUND GROWS LOUDER

AND THE WIND GROWS STRONGER

This is making me feel anxious.

THE STRONG WIND KEEPS SHAKING THE DRYING RACK

The weight should keep it still.

HANGS A BUNCH OF TOWELS TO WEIGH THE RACK DOWN

Good.

The wind can't fling it away now.

HE STEPS ON IT FOR GOOD MEASURE, BUT HE STILL FEELS ANXIOUS

It's giving me jitters, though.

TOO CONCERNED TO WALK AWAY

10 MINUTES LATER

RETURNING WITH A CUP OF COFFEE

It's such a beautiful day.

So beautiful.

What? Dang it.

THE RACK GAVE OUT IN THE END

I stepped away for a bit to get some coffee!

It's giving me jitters, though.

JAE-HYEON LEFT TO GET COFFEE

EXACTLY 10 SECONDS LATER

SHAKING OMINOUSLY

THE WIND'S STRONG EMBRACE KNOCKED IT OVER

A TRAGEDY BROUGHT ON BY A WHIMSICAL COFFEE BREAK

I kind of knew this would happen.

A ROUGH DAY FOR HOMEMAKER AHN

HANGING LIMPLY

SIGHS DEEPLY

Come along.

THE RECOVERED TOWELS ENDED UP BACK IN THE WASHER

IN MERE 15 MINUTES

I knew it.

Things can happen.

WILL THE HOUSEMATES GET THEIR TOWELS WITHIN THE DAY?

Time for a little workout.

MEANWHILE, AP IS DOWN IN THE BASEMENT TO WORK OUT

CHANNELING ROCKY OUT OF THE BLUE

ADDED BACKGROUND MUSIC USING THE COIN KARAOKE MACHINE

ADDS A BATTLE CRY

AP'S AT-HOME WORKOUT IS DIFFERENT

IT'S ANOTHER SHOW TIME

FIRST ROUTINE, BENCH PRESS

GOOD POSTURE

THAT'S IT?

NOW THAT HE'S WARMED UP, IT'S TIME TO...

SING?

SWITCHING TO BOXING SUDDENLY

ACTUALLY, HE GETS HOLD OF A TAMBOURINE

WHEN IS HE GOING TO WORK OUT PROPERLY?

SWAYING SIDE TO SIDE

NOW THAT HE'S IN THE ZONE, HE WANTS ONE MORE SONG

ANOTHER VERY DRAMATIC INTERLUDE

THIS TIME, IT'S THE THEME SONG OF THE 1988 ***MPICS

LET ME SHOW YOU THE PRINCE'S ENERGY

THIS TIME, HE WORKS ON FLEXING HIS BICEPS

GRACEFUL

SIGHS

YET AGAIN, HE'S ONLY DONE ONE SET

IT SEEMS HE'S ADDING A SET IN BETWEEN HIS BREAKS

SUDDENLY TRYING CHEERLEADING MOVES

LET'S GO, KOREA

TAKING A PEEK

WHAT THE HECK IS HE DOING NOW?

WELCOME TO MY LOUNGE

You're supposed to keep your head down.

- So I'm fooling around alone here - Alone?

so no one would know.

I guess I'll have to give you that.

- You use this for music? - It gets you in the mood.

- How clever. - It gets you there.

- What are you doing? - Just some weightlifting.

- We've got gear now. - Simple stuff. I brought some over.

Are we sure it's safe? What if it breaks?

GOING STRAIGHT TO THE MACHINE

Hey, this feels great.

I hear hanging helps a lot.

- Try a pull-up. - No thanks.

- Go on. - No, I'm sticking to this.

What's the point of hanging there?

I'm only going to...

JUST A SINGLE ATTACK

BUT DOUBLE STRIKES

That was pretty wild.

I barely touched you.

Don't do it, okay?

Oh, jeez. Don't.

This alone has good health benefits.

- It stretches your spine. - It's just a stretch.

Yeah, and that's good for you.

YELPS

That wasn't you?

WHAT'S UP WITH HIM?

- You're making me paranoid. - How come?

- I'm worried you'd tickle me again. - All right, fine.

I think we're on top of the moves now.

Let's practice dancing for the clip.

- Sounds good. - So we can get used to it.

I love it.

NERVOUS AND EXCITED

- Do-yeon. - Yeah?

What do you think?

Should I keep my cap on for more impact?

Let me think.

Would it be better to let my hair swish around more?

- I prefer you with the cap on. - You do?

Let's keep Da-hee in the center as much as we can.

- Oh, no. - Take one step forward.

- Just do it, Da-hee. - What?

Confidence!

GRINS

It's all about confidence.

You've got this, Da-hee.

- Step forward, please. - Forward?

- I'll shoot close-ups first. - Oh, really?

Stand closer to Da-hee.

Here we go.

NERVOUS

Ready.

A NEW EXPERIENCE THANKS TO DA-HEE

NEW GLINT IN HER EYES

INTRO GOES SMOOTHLY

DID DA-HEE JUST CRACK A SMILE?

CLOSING IN

FAZED BY THE CAMERA MOVING IN

SNEAKS A GLANCE

HER NEIGHBOR COVERS FOR HER WITH HER HIGH ENERGY

LET'S USE THE BEST WEAPON IN OUR ARSENAL

THEIR MOVES FALL APART

NOTHING CAN SALVAGE THIS NOW

Darn it.

Darn it.

Oh, no.

Can you please edit that out?

Oh, shoot.

ARE THEY GOING TO START CURSING NOW?

I'LL SEAL MY MOUTH

- It's okay. - Okay.

Can't believe our video ended like that.

A NICE START PAIRED WITH A SORRY ENDING

MEANWHILE...

THIS WON'T DO

Why don't we shoot the video for the challenge together?

Let's take one each and wrap things up nicely.

Okay, this is a rare opportunity.

Who wants the spotlight first?

My sole priority is that Da-hee looks amazing.

THE ORDER DOESN'T MATTER

- And you're killing it, Da-hee. - Totally.

As long as she looks great

our House Squad Goal is a major success.

I love your attitude just now.

SHE CAN'T SEEM TO RELAX DESPITE HER FRIENDS' ENCOURAGEMENT

IN THAT CASE...

Why don't I do it in my own style?

DO-YEON STARTS FIRST

DO-YEON STEPS UP INSTEAD OF NERVOUS DA-HEE

Is Do-yeon going first?

SAVED BY DO-YEON

I'll film it. The least I can do is be the cameraperson.

Oh, no. I made a mistake.

It's okay. Keep going.

It's that move next.

LOCKS IN THANKS TO DO-YEON'S ASSIST

I'm so tired.

FINALLY, IT'S TIME TO REALIZE DA-HEE'S DREAM

Let's try this.

- Take the center stage, and we'll... - That's for the better.

But that way, I can't follow your moves.

We will indeed move to the back

We've got a masterpiece now.

Amazing.

THE MOMENT THE CAMERA STOPPED, DA-HEE'S FLAVOR MODE WENT OFF

It was so satisfying.

I think I poured all my energy into that dance.

REWATCHING THE CHALLENGE VIDEO

I LOVE IT SO MUCH

LET'S REALIZE OUR DREAMS ONE BY ONE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE

To be honest

I felt like I became JENNIE.

Seriously, I mean it.

Having Do-yeon and Soo-jin by my side really helped me.

TOGETHER WE FOUND THE COURAGE

This experience made me realize that I can keep taking lessons.

As long as I can enjoy it

the training hours will become meaningful for me.

I'm seriously considering it.
