Ha Ha Bus (Hahabeoseu / 하하버스)

I am a bus

A dreaming bus

You have to say "bus" properly!

Guys!

We're in Gyeongju.

(The most Korean city featuring a 1,000-year-old history)

Gyeongju is known for its hanok.

- Yes, that's a Gyeongju signature. - Indeed.

Even the bus stops have traditional roof tiles!

(Not only is it rich in history, but it's also rich in thrills.)

(Traveling to Gyeongju will be everything you imagine and more.)

(Past and present coexist in Gyeongju's day and night.)

(Let's begin the third trip in Gyeongju now.)

Am I turning right?

- Or do I go straight? - Probably straight.

Am I supposed to turn right or go straight?

(The HaHaBus has passed the Gyeongju city center...)

Where are we going?

It's a bit away from Gyeongju.

This is a small village in the middle of nowhere!

- Yes. - Right.

(Is HaHaBus headed to a village in the middle of nowhere?)

We're driving...

to a town with elderly people.

They contacted us.

- Yes, that's where we're going. - They wanted to have us here.

The elders of Gyeongju must have watched...

our show, "HaHaBus."

That's right.

(Hello, I'm Kim Hwa Sik, the village chief of Hyodong 2-ri.)

(One of the elders suggested we go on a spring trip to the city,)

(So, please give our elders a city tour around Gyeongju.)

(The Hyodong-ri elders want to go on a spring trip on HaHaBus.)

The elders don't get to visit Gyeongju often.

So, we're picking them up as we've been requested to do so.

We're a pickup service now.

(Contact us for HaHaBus rental for special rural bus service.)

HaHaBus! You have to beat them all!

(Where will the rough mountain roads lead the family?)

(A small village around 50 minutes away from the Gyeongju city center)

(It's where fresh air and kind people await.)

(Hyodong 2-ri, a village of elders deep and high in the mountains)

I guess people want to try being on HaHaBus.

- Right? - Yes.

- All right. Should I park? - Should we get off?

Who's that?

- It's an elder! - Yes, it is!

There's an elder.

Yes, it is!

Look at him. Honey, please open the door.

What's going on? Hold on.

Guys.

(Who's this man in a dopo, a traditional robe?)

Hello, sir!

Hello!

Hello!

Hello, sir!

Nice to meet you.

Look who it is!

- Nice to meet you! - Hello!

Hello! You're wearing a gat!

Oh, you have a name card!

It's all in Chinese characters.

I'm the 30th generation of King Munmu of Silla.

I'm also the 25th generation of Class 9 civil servants.

I'm a modern-day civil servant.

(Kim Hwa Sik, the 25th generation of civil servant...)

I'm a modern-day civil servant.

I see.

And I'm the village chief.

You're the chief! You're a fashionista!

- HaHaBus? - Here comes the bus.

Here it comes.

HaHaBus.

- Hello, ma'am! - Nice to meet you.

You're a fashionista too!

This is so sudden...

- Nice to meet you! - Hello.

You're all so fashionable!

Who are they?

Who are they?

My grandmother is my grandmother.

(The elderly ladies have the friendliest laughs.)

A small-town grandma.

- Baby! - The kids...

- Hello! - Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you!

- She's my youngest daughter. - Hi!

- Hi! - Hello!

She loves elderly ladies.

- She's adorable. - She loves elderly ladies.

We're young!

- Not elderly! - Right, you're young!

I made a mistake!

- We're young! - Goodness!

- Can I call you ladies miss instead? - Of course!

- Young misses! - Yes, misses!

You are misses today, not ma'ams!

You're the Hyo-ri Sisters.

(The Hyo-ri Sisters will be on HaHaBus today.)

Where do you want to go? We can go anywhere.

- Anywhere? - Yes.

We don't know. We're good with anywhere.

We can go anywhere!

We can start from the Gyeongju city center.

And there's that area with lots of restaurants.

- Hwangridan-gil! - Yes, Hwangridan-gil!

- We have to go there too! - Hwangridan-gil!

You've never been there, right? Okay.

Hop in the bus.

We have some things to load. Come with me.

What's all of that?

It's for you since you're doing this for us.

What's that? My goodness!

Oh, my!

- What's that? - Can you carry one too?

They've packed rice cakes and treats!

It's a party!

Have fun, ladies!

- Okay! - Thank you.

(A friendly goodbye from the master, no, the village chief.)

Bye!

Why did you pack so much food? We should buy food there!

I wanted to treat you to good food.

Don't worry. We'll eat that too.

All right!

(A friendly attendant is helping them put the seatbelts on.)

All right.

- Are the three siblings? - Yes.

- They're three siblings. - Three siblings!

- Yes, three. - That's a good number.

- You're doing the country a favor. - Right?

My wife is a modern-day hero.

You're so lucky.

Two sons and one daughter!

Off we go!

Let's go! Ladies, we're off!

We're leaving now!

- Let's go! - Off we go!

Make some noise, kids!

Let's go to Gyeongju.

It's a ladies' trip today! How nice is that?

The weather is perfect too.

(Let's have fun on the ladies' trip to Gyeongju!)

A spring trip! How nice is that?

(Even the bumpy bus ride is exciting on this spring outing.)

I hear not many buses come...

- to Hyodong-ri. - We rarely get any.

The bus comes twice a day.

If we miss the bus,

going to the city center is nearly impossible.

I bet. That's why we're here!

- Right. - HaHaBus is special, then!

- I'm glad we came. - For sure.

I heard elderly ladies sent us a story for us to come,

but I didn't see any elderly ladies there!

I was so confused by all these young ladies!

They should've told us...

young ladies sent us a story!

Thank you!

You're all so chic!

What have you packed?

Wait. They're corns!

Did you grow these yourselves?

- Our kids love corn! - They absolutely love corn!

- That's perfect. - Give them to me. I'll give them to them.

They're hot, though. Can they eat these?

They'll be so tasty!

Here you go. There!

Hey, there.

Thank you so much!

It's so good!

Is it?

(She finished that cob with that small mouth.)

(Leaving one kernel on the cheek for later)

- It's so flavorful! - Right?

- It's sweet. - Is it?

Can I have one more?

You want more, Song?

- She eats so well! - Here's more.

Thanks for enjoying it!

(Taking turns to eat off of the two cobs at once)

(Dream, the eldest one, is eating by the mouthful.)

It's good, right?
