Men on a Mission (아는 형님)

It's going to be Christmas soon.

Soon, it'll be 2022.

Time flies.

You're right. - Time flies.

You know that as much as time flies,

the world is changing just as rapidly.

In the past, whenever you entered a home,

or opened a door...

It was the "Love House" theme.

"When the sun shines through the window..."

That's still around,

but it's different for the new generation.

How? - Since they don't know that song,

these days, they just go,

"Da-dum."

Oh, that? The Netflix sound?

The Netflix sound.

Da-dum. The opening sound. - The sound when you turn it on.

So when they open the door or enter a house,

the sound that plays is "da-dum".

Kids these days...

text each other using DMs.

They use DMs to chat?

Ho Dong, do you know what a DM is?

Does anyone not know? Carpe DM.

Of course.

That's so obvious.

Everybody knows that. - Kids use carpe DMs these days.

Should we DM the transfer students then?

You know how to send a DM?

Open the app then.

How do you send one? - Open the app.

You can send them without opening the app now.

How? - Show us.

Send.

Did it send? - Katalk.

You have a message.

Did it work? - It sent?

Did you just get a text? - Was that a recording?

No.

Who is it? - It's aespa.

It's aespa!

Who is it? - It's aespa.

It's aespa!

They may be called aespa, but they're really the Best-spa.

Best-spa.

It's aespa!

We missed you.

It's been so long.

Long time no see.

Hi. - Welcome back.

Did you guys bring a phone?

What was the Kakaotalk sound? - Did someone get a text?

Katalk.

You have a message.

Wow, it sounds exactly the same.

So that was Winter's voice?

That was Winter? - It sounded like a machine.

Really. - I don't have my sound on.

We really thought it was a machine recording.

I prepared it since it's my first time in the classroom.

As a personal talent? - Yes.

"We're gganbu."

You saw that?

So you prepared a lot.

Ningning, what is it?

"Stop it."

"I'm so scared."

Yes, please stop, we're all so scared now.

Ningning, we're so scared.

Wow, that was great.

Tell us where you're from.

All right.

We're from First Got on Stage with "Black Mamba" High.

And We Conquered the Stage with "Next Level" High.

And Tore Up the Stage with "Savage" High.

And We Topped All the Charts High. In 1, 2, 3,

We're "be my ae" aespa! - We're "be my ae" aespa!

Welcome.

Aespa is the Best-spa.

Hi, I'm Winter from aespa.

Winter.

I'm Winter.

Hi, I'm hot girl Giselle.

Hot girl.

Crane girl?

Crane girl. - Giselle.

Hi, I'm the multi-talented girl with the masterful voice,

Ningning.

Ningning is Ningning.

Hi, I'm the visual leader,

Karina.

They're really coming back in glory.

Last time, they visited us at our dorms.

We played together there to catch the snake.

That's right.

I heard the teacher was bitten by a snake and died.

It was a broadcasting accident.

Teacher Defconn.

Defconn was bitten that time. - No wonder.

I didn't see him around after.

That time, Defconn...

He was bitten by a black mamba.

Yes, he was bitten by a black mamba.

Teacher...

Teacher... - Teacher...

Teacher. - We hope you're happy now.

You performed "Next Level" for us in the auditorium last time.

That's right. - Right, we did.

We did this. - Totally.

This dance, for "Next Level".

The one that looks like a D.

Was there any effect from doing that on our show?

Didn't you rise in the charts?

Yes, we did even better after being on Men on a Mission.

Aespa was so popular after being on Men on a Mission.

Yes, we got a lot of love.

Weren't we the ones tagging along as they were becoming popular?

No. - No.

To tell you more precisely,

when aespa was on the show, they were fourth on the charts.

On the Melon charts. - How do you remember that?

After being on our show, they jumped to first.

That's right. - Really?

Sang Min loves Men on a Mission so much.

He's always trying to promote a favorable image for it.

That's why we prepared a gift,

to show our gratitude.

Really? - Really?

Did you really? - Is it cash?

Production crew, cue the music! - They'll give us a show, right?

They look so good.

It's so impressive.

Doesn't the dance feel so different?

Black Mamba!

"Next Level"! - Yes.

There it is.

Look at that.

Look at me.

Is that Tarzan?

It's "Savage".

They go like this.

But for us...

For "Savage," did Kim Ea Na write the lyrics?

Kim. Ea Na. - Kim Ea Na.

You keep saying her name throughout the song.

You keep saying Kim Ea Na.

Since I was in Dongs' Fun Dance Class,

I learned a lot of dance moves.

When I saw aespa perform, I realized I know those moves.

Really? What kinds of moves are they?

The dances look easy,

but that's because they make it look easy. They're really hard.

That's right. - To pull them off properly.

The "Next Level" dance... - There's a give and take.

Is a Western cuisine dance.

Like this.

Tonkatsu level.

Table number two.

It's the D-letter dance.

That's right. - In my time,

This A-B-C dance was the best.

YMCA.

I'm from the street, you know.

There's something I heard.

Your ears turned red, Kyung Hoon.

They're so red. - I'm from the street.

I heard a rumor.

What street?

As a dancer.

Kyung Hoon, you have to say you're originally a street dancer.

Not just the street.

As a street dancer, I heard a rumor.

I heard something. - From "Street Woman Fighter".

Katarina...

What? - Katarina?

That's right. - Her name is Katarina.

Katarina.

I don't know what's going on.

Katarina is an American song.

His ears are so red.

He's so embarrassed. - It's been a while.

It's been too long. - Since it's been so long.

But no matter how long it's been,

how can you mistake Karina for Katarina?

You got the name wrong. - One's a game character.

But Karina was derived from Katarina, so it's not wrong.

That's right. - Right.

Really? Your name was originally Katarina?

My christening name was Katarina.

That's why it's Karina. - Oh, really?

So that's why it's Karina.

That's why you're Karina. - What a relief...

for Kyung Hoon. - I was just lucky.

But I hear that the dancing...

Karina can do with her hair is really impressive.

Karina and Seo Nam Yong...

are Korea's two top dancers in terms of hair dancing.

My goodness. - But that's a big deal,

because when you're dancing, you're controlling your body,
