Mom's Diary, My Ugly Duckling (My Little Old Boy / 미운 우리 새끼)

Hello.

Hello. - Welcome.

It's Lee Joon. - He's so handsome.

Right. - Hello. Nice to meet you.

He's a great actor...

Hello. - and he can also...

do well in variety shows. - Hello.

This is amazing.

I'm watching "The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection."

I'm currently watching it and he's right in front of my eyes.

Right. - Thank you.

"The Escape of the Seven: Resurrection..."

is a really popular drama currently.

His acting is amazing too.

He didn't have to say this himself, but Joon said,

"I took my shirt off to become popular."

"Why did you take your shirt off so often?"

"I took my shirt off to become popular."

You had quite a few scenes with your shirt off.

There weren't supposed to be any,

but I forced them.

To be honest,

I wasn't prepared for that one either.

Gosh. You have a great body.

It wasn't necessary.

I said I wanted to do some pushups.

You take your shirt off whenever you have the chance.

Gosh.

There was a scene where I got beaten up.

I got tied up...

and got beaten up like crazy.

If I'm dressed, I can have on protective gear.

But I said that I would get beaten...

without any protective gear.

And the director went,

"You don't have to go that far."

But I thought that would make it feel more realistic.

It was to make it feel more realistic?

Right. And I regretted it right away.

It really hurt.

Joon has become independent...

for six months now. - Right.

As an advantage,

he said he could be free from his mom's nagging.

How should I put it?

I think the biggest advantage of becoming independent...

is enjoying the happiness of being an adult.

There is no one to scold me for shaking my legs.

I love shaking my legs.

Back then, it was said that it would bring you bad luck.

Right. - Nowadays,

it's known as a good workout. - Really?

Yes. - I was told...

it would bring bad luck.

It's good to shake your body up these days.

There's that and my mom would also tell me...

to get dressed with a warmer outfit when it's cold.

She would tell me to eat when I didn't even feel hungry.

Right. - Right.

You have found freedom. - Right.

There is no one to scold me.

I see that as a big advantage.

He's an unusual character.

I heard there were scary rumors about him.

I heard there were scary rumors about him.

There was a rumor that he would hold up a bat...

and mumble on his own at home.

Was he trying to catch a rat?

This happened to me even today.

Even today? - I currently live...

in a detached house.

He lives alone in a detached house.

That's unusual. - A detached house.

Yes. That's right.

I hear a lot of strange noises at home.

I would hear banging noises. - Yes.

Even last night,

I felt so scared.

So to protect myself,

I keep a bat beneath my bed.

As soon as I hear something... - Right.

You need to do that.

"Who is it? Show yourself."

I heard Joon was just like Jong Kook.

He is also well-known as a frugal celebrity.

I like him even more now.

He still...

He still wears the underwear that he bought...

when he was a middle-schooler for over ten years.

And his monthly credit card bill...

is around 700 dollars. - Gosh.

I heard there was a time you rode your bicycle to save money.

Yes. This was when I was a trainee.

I got this thought that even paying for the subway was a waste.

Right.

I lived in Songpa back then...

and our studio was in Apgujeong.

I had to be there all seven days a week.

I went back and forth every day.

If it was from Songpa to Apgujeong,

didn't it take around an hour? - It's quite far.

Right. It would take at least 50 minutes...

even with the fastest pedaling. - Right.

You went back and forth on your bicycle like that?

And I don't like...

changing the things I already have.

It's the same with my underwear.

I would change it if it gets worn out,

but it's still fine.

It's fine.

You're right about that. - I didn't find the need to.

You can still wear it even when the elastic band is all loose.

Around how much do you pay for the electricity bill each month?

My house is quite big. - Right.

It's quite a big house.

I paid three dollars for the water bill.

Gosh. - Gosh.

Do you not wash up? - I do.

But I use the gym.

I see. - I use the gym.

You use someone else's money.

And I wore thick fur jackets when it was cold.

I barely paid for the heating bills.

Then what about...

food?

I eat at a library.

There's a library in front of my house.

A library.

They have something like a school lunchroom there.

A cafeteria? - Right. A cafeteria.

Their food is great there. - Right.

If I eat there,

I'm done with one meal.

I love ramyeon.

One packet of ramyeon costs around two dollars.

So I would spend around eight dollars a day.

I have ramyeon at least once a day.

The library cafeteria costs six dollars.

Right. And I spend two dollars at home.

That's around eight dollars a day.

My goodness.

So when you have work, you use the company's money?

When I have work, I eat pork belly or beef.

That's when I eat a lot of expensive food.

You need to get a checkup here.

Where is this place?

It's run by a scientific system.

It sounds like Sang Min.

It sounds like him.

I'm scared. Where are we?

Don't be scared.

It's my son. - It's Seung Soo.

I'm scared. Where are we?

Don't be scared. This place is...

Where are they?

I have never come to a place like this before.

Hello. - Hello.

Hello. - Hello.

Hello.

Have a seat.

Okay.

Hello. - Hello.

Hello.

Isn't it a matchmaking agency?

Right.

I'm quite bewildered right now.

I'm quite bewildered right now.

I see.

What is that place?

What kind of place is that?

So what exactly is this place?

It's a place that finds the color that suits you the most.

This is what this place does for you.

Each person has a color that suits them the most.

Your face doesn't seem smooth anymore.

My face becomes wider and thinner.

Right. And with a dark tone...

It's a place that finds your personal color.

It's a place that finds a color that suits you the most.
