La unuaj 200 linioj.
(On a particularly sweltering day in August)
We're in Dongjak-gu.
They're giving us tasty refreshments today.
- Did you have breakfast? - I did.
What did you have?
Well, I had some rice with eggs...
and japchae.
- So... - You have a nice breakfast.
- You had japchae for breakfast? - My gosh.
- My breakfast is always nice. - Really?
I enjoyed my breakfast.
People rarely get to have japchae for breakfast.
We're filming the show...
- in the middle of the day. - I see.
- The fact that they don't know... - I'm nervous.
we're coming...
is kind of crazy.
I mean, they need to be prepared in some way.
But Jae Seok seems to manage without any preparation.
Really? That's fascinating.
- I think it's this way. - This way.
I see. What a unique location for a cafe.
Wait. This is quite sudden.
- Is that Hae In? - Wait. Sung Tae!
- Who's that? - Hae In.
- What? - Hello.
(this young guy made the hearts of many older women flutter.)
(the viewers were instantly won over.)
(A top-tier actor with incredible genre versatility)
(The biggest villain in "Squid Game" that kept the entire world on edge)
(He can pull off playing a gangster role...)
(Actor Heo Sung Tae can even pull off playing a romantic role.)
(The two lead actors from "Our Sticky Love")
- Hello. - Hello.
- Sung Tae. - My gosh.
- Mr. Lawyer. - My goodness.
- What's going on? - Sung Tae.
- Let's sit down. - Okay.
Hae In.
- It's been a while, Hae In. - Gosh.
We met briefly when we were both filming.
- Remember? - Yes. We did.
- I was filming an SBS drama. - Yes.
- He was filming his new drama then. - Oh, right.
- He was filming in the next studio. - It was at the same company.
- I went to say hello to him. - Oh, right.
He rushed over and said hello.
- Gosh, he's one polite guy. - Yes. My gosh.
I didn't know you guys were joining us today.
I wanted to ask him to take on my case.
- He played a ghost in the drama. - Oh, right.
- You were both in the drama. - In "Phantom Lawyer."
- "Phantom Lawyer." - He had a really tough role.
- Why? - He was in Episodes 1 and 2.
- I see. - He played a ghost,
so he had to film the same scenes twice...
because he had to be seen and then disappear.
He was constantly strapped into wires.
I had the most fun experience while filming the drama.
I had to be up in the air.
I didn't have any special equipment. I just delivered my lines.
(He had to make it look like he was floating.)
- You had to do that? I get it. - Yes, I had to do it.
- His character was floating. - You were floating in the air.
- That was a new kind of experience. - That's...
One day, they gave him a gym ball.
He got the gym ball and sat on it.
- Right. I know. - So...
he had to pretend he was floating.
That was a new experience.
- I knew that Hae In's new drama... - Yes.
- was going to air soon. - Right.
- The title is "Our Sticky Love." - Yes.
- So... - Is it called sticky...
because you can't be separated?
- My gosh. - I see.
- Of course. - I knew it.
- That's the meaning behind it? - Yes.
- Yes. - It's sweet and sticky like taffy.
- It's sweet too. - It's sticky like taffy.
I watched the trailer.
She has amnesia in the drama.
Right.
She has amnesia.
And I'm insisting that I'm her boyfriend.
In a way, I'm tricking her into falling in love with me.
(A prosecutor loses her memory while chasing a case.)
(Tangled between the truth and secrets)
(A sweet and suspenseful romance with an amnesia twist)
(It's available on the streaming website.)
But that sounds like a nice deal.
- She doesn't have any memory. - Okay.
One day, she just wakes up.
Hae In comes and tells her he's her boyfriend.
- Right. - Yes.
So you're the villain...
in their love story, right?
- You're the villain. - Yes.
I make a sticky mess.
- Watch your pronunciation. - I see.
- He's a supervillain. - A villain?
- Really? - It's been a while.
It's been three years since I last played...
- Really? - a villain.
I've been mostly playing detectives.
It felt just like riding a bicycle, right?
- But the thing is... - It was easy, wasn't it?
When we started filming and running lines...
in the beginning, it didn't hit me.
Then we did a scene where blood splattered on my face.
Once blood splashed on my face,
I thought, "This is it."
So this is what I said to the director.
"I'm getting the hang of it now."
- I was on fire after that. - You were getting the hang of it.
It was really fun.
He played the villain.
We're in...
We're in Dongjak-gu...
- near Boramae Park, right? - Boramae Park.
- We passed Sangdo-dong. - Right.
Who has ties to this neighborhood?
- Hae In lived here for a long time. - It's Hae In.
I briefly lived here.
I live in Gyeonggi Province now.
You moved?
- I recently moved. - Recently?
- You recently moved? - Yes.
So...
when we were filming the drama, we lived close to each other.
- Really? - Yes.
- So this is your neighborhood? - Yes.
I've been living here for over 30 years.
- I see. Really? - It's been about 30 years.
I did my military service around here.
- Where? - I was in the Air Force.
He's mentioning that again.
- What? - He always brings up...
his military service and Sejong University.
- We're near Boramae Park. - Come on.
There's an Air Force base.
- I was in the Air Force. So... - I mean, I know that.
Can't I mention that I was in the Air Force?
His nickname is Jong.
But I didn't bring up the university today.
Seriously. The university...
We shouldn't go to Gwangjin-gu.
They should give you an award.
No one has put Sejong University on the map quite like Yeon Seok...
besides Sejong the Great.
- You know what's strange? - I'm serious.
I got invited...
- for a Hangul Day event. - Right?
- See? - I...
Sejong University ought to do something nice for him.
Anyway, you've been living around Boramae Park...
- for 30 years. - I've been here for a long time.
You must've gone to a local high school then.
Yes. I went to elementary, middle, and high schools...
in this neighborhood.
This is your hometown then.
I grew up in Daebang-dong.
- Gosh. - Daebang-dong.
- Daebang-dong... - My base was in Daebang-dong.
Across Military Manpower Administration.
- Well, yes. - I'm serious.
- There's an Air Force base. - Yes.
But you don't live here anymore, right?
- I still have ties here. - Okay.
My parents still live here.
- I see. They live here. - So you go back and forth.
- Yes. I go back and forth. - Your parents...
I used to go to Boramae Park before my career took off.
There's a boxed meal takeout place...
in the basement of a department store.
- I know the one. - I bought a boxed meal...
- and ate it at the park by myself. - Did you practice at the park?
I remember doing that.
When I sometimes come here and want to go to a good restaurant,
I remember Hae In and think about asking him for recommendations.
- I hold myself back and never ask. - Why not?
- Why not? You should ask. - You can ask.
I mean, he's busy.
I hearted a lot of places...
- on Google Maps. - Right. I saw a lot of hearts.
- I see. The ones you saved? - Yes. I saved a lot of places.
- A tteokbokki stall and so on. - Then...
do you like going to famous restaurants?
I like going to restaurants.
- Hae In likes doing that. - I see.
- Yeon Seok and Hae In... - Let's go to a good one today.
Right.
We don't have to worry about food today.
What if you have to wait in line for over 30 minutes?
Would you wait?
- It's Friday today. - Oh, right.
When you see a line, do you give up instead of waiting in line?
I... Right.
You don't wait in line?
- No. - You have a list, but don't wait?
