Yu Huiyeol's Sketchbook (You Hee-yeol's Sketchbook / 유희열의 스케치북)

Hello, it's nice to meet you.

Welcome to Sketchbook, everyone. I'm Yu Hui Yeol.

It is now August, the best season for vacation.

However, there are people who didn't get to go on vacation yet.

For those people, we've prepared a special episode...

with some musicians that people wish to go on vacation with.

We actually carried out a survey.

And based on the results,

we invited the top four popular musicians on the list.

Isn't it great?

This poll has a sampling error of plus or minus 95 percent.

You should know that the credibility of the survey is very low.

But I do believe that we can go anywhere...

if we have good music, stories and happy moments like today.

This is what the script says.

"Let's go on a journey to Music Island with them."

Let's go off on a journey to Music Island then.

The first music island we are heading to...

is an island...

with a beautiful sea of dazzling cobalt blue water.

I'm sure you've all been there, too. It is Santorini in Greece.

We can easily go and visit whenever we want.

It feels like this musician will be sitting on the beach of Santorini.

He is charming and handsome.

He is attractive.

You'd want him to be your boyfriend.

Let me introduce him.

He is Roy Kim.

He's our first guest on Music Island. It's Roy Kim.

Hello.

Have you been doing well?

Yes. I've been very busy recently.

- Okay. - So I needed a vacation like this.

How do you like it? We're in Santorini along with everyone here.

- What do you think? - It is very uncomfortable.

This is absurd.

- No, it's not. - No? I see.

As I talk to you lying on a sun bed,

it feels like I'm in the Maldives drinking Mojito. What do you think?

That's such an old joke.

I'm sorry.

What is the title of the song you just sang?

It called "Maybe I".

It is the original sound track of the drama, "Oh Hae Young, Again".

That's right. It was loved my many people.

Can you please introduce the man who played the keyboard for you?

Sure. We've been working together ever since my first concert.

It's been 3 to 4 years since we've worked together.

He's Lee Hyo Seok.

Doesn't he look a bit different?

I don't know if it's the shorter hair,

but it's as if something hit you emotionally.

Hang on, let's have you open another button.

This?

- Just one more. - I asked my stylist to...

make me look sexy.

- Should I open one more button? - Yes.

- There you go. - Fantastic.

- Carry on. - This is what I love.

Roy is very busy these days.

He recently appeared on "King of Mask Singer"...

as the Romantic Black Knight.

- That's right. - People loved your songs.

Right.

- It was up until three days ago. - I'm glad I can say this now...

because I knew it was Roy the moment he started singing.

Can you sing the first bar of one of the songs you sang on that show?

Please, no more.

Who else could that be but you?

What should I do?

It's you singing "Confession".

- Everyone else knew, too. - On that show,

they alter the participants' voices when they do their interviews,

so you can't help but sound silly and immature.

Right. What's going on?

Even if I say something serious and important,

I sound silly...

and insincere.

I'd say that I'm grateful to everyone in the audience...

and that I was moved by what everyone said...

and that I'll try to be a better singer.

However, none of that sounded sincere.

I don't know what the viewers thought of my words,

but it came from deep inside my heart.

Could you stop talking?

- I've had enough. - I'm sorry.

What people mostly said about Roy after that show was this.

"I had no idea that Roy was this talented."

"We underestimated him."

So is there a song you wanted to...

sing on that show but you never got a chance to?

I wanted to sing...

- "Love Is" by Yoon Sang. - The lyrics to that are amazing.

Could we perhaps hear you sing a cover of that song?

- Yes, I came prepared. - That's great.

That was amazing.

- Thanks. - It's an incredible song,

but I also love how you make all the songs you sing yours.

It's as if you put a stamp on it with your voice.

Thank you.

To be honest, I was really nervous just now...

because I know how much Hui Yeol loves Yoon Sang's songs.

- I have huge respect for him. - I know and...

that's why I was trembling.

I'm happy though.

You debuted four years ago,

but you've already released three studio albums.

That's how busy you've been.

Anyway, many are already looking forward to the next one.

I know, but I haven't settled on any specific plans for one,

especially in the year 2016.

I've been releasing one studio album each year.

I guess I need time to recharge and reenergise.

So for the rest of 2016,

I've decided to take some time off music.

I will be back with new songs next year though.

What kind of songs do you want to sing in the future?

Songs that specifically targets the ladies.

Really? Like which one?

Songs like "The Manual"...

- that are... - "The Manual" by Eddy Kim?

I want it to be raunchier than that though.

- Raunchier? - Yes, I want it to be...

a little more sexy.

I want to sing a song that's very straightforward and sexy.

If you want advice, you should come to me.

Can you give me one now?

I'll call you sometime and tell you over the phone.

You can just write the melody to that.

How about we make this a collaboration project?

That'd be insane.

I think so, too.

We could name the song, "How to Use Me".

- What do you think? - It's a good idea.

- It is. - "The Manual"...

- sounds random, don't you think? - You're right.

Right. Anyway, that's the kind of song I want to sing.

I'd like to talk more with Roy, but it's now time...

to hear another song from him. What will you be singing?

I was wondering...

what song would suit today's theme nicely.

After consideration, I decided to sing one by Tae Yang.

Are you serious?

- Yes. - Since his name means the sun?

Yes, because it's summer.

It's summer and sunny, therefore, I should sing Tae Yang's song.

Don't tell me it's "Eyes, Nose, Lips".

Well, it is.

You're spot on.

Anyway, with this song, we'll say goodbye to Roy.

- Thank you for being here. - Thank you.

Thank you.

All right. Let me take you to the second music island.

There's an island that all hip youngsters dream of visiting.

It's Ibiza in Spain.

I'm sure many of you have heard of it.

I've never been, but I heard that the club scene there is amazing.

I think it'd be awesome to swim with this musician during the day...

and dance away to fun, upbeat music with her at night.

That'd be such a fun vacation.

We must listen to her music in summer.

Please give it up for Hyun A.

Have a seat and make yourself at home. You're on vacation.

We're in Ibiza right now.

- Right. - We're sitting on camping chairs.

Please think that you're on vacation now.

- Okay, I will. - Relax.

Think as if we're at a club right now.

- I see, we're at a club. - I'm dressed like G-Dragon today.

I was thinking that your shirt looks so cool.

I actually own this shirt.

I see. It's so cool.

I wore my favourite shirt today because I heard you were coming.

- Thank you. - You look like one of...

the Red Devils, the national football team supporters,

because of what you're wearing.

- Yes. - Please say hello to our viewers.

Hello, everyone. It's very nice to meet you all.

I'm Hyun A, and I'm back with my solo album after a year of hiatus.

I'm so happy to meet you.

No camping is complete without a campfire.

I'll kindle the fire.

All right, let me see. That worked.

- Oh, look. - It's on.

The flame is going strong. That's good.

I tell you this all the time. We never meet your expectations.

I'd like to remind you again.

- Hyun A, you came to... - Yes.

Sketchbook two years ago.

- That's right. - You joined us for...

our "Say Goodbye to Single-hood Special".

The video clip of that episode...

has gotten over 3.7 million views...

- so far. - Oh, my.

- That's incredible. - Also,

we've gathered some of the articles about that specific episode.

One of the articles was titled like this.

"Sketchbook's Say Goodbye to Single-hood Special".

"The Performance of 'Troublemaker' Sent Male Fans into Utter Bliss".

It looks like many of your male fans are here today to see you.
