(It's every mom's favorite singer, Lim Young Woong.)

- Am I supposed to do something? - No.

- Just sit here? - Yes, that's the script.

Someone's here.

Who is it?

- Why? - It's Lim Young Woong.

- What? - Please go in.

- You can go in. - Hello, there.

- Hi. - Who?

- Hello, there. - Hi.

Hello.

- Oh, my gosh! Hi! - Goodness.

I'm so happy to see you!

- This is unbelievable. - How did you find the time?

- Oh, my goodness. - This is a huge honor.

- Oh, my. - Goodness.

- I love you. - Welcome.

- You just glow. - Hello.

- Goodness. - They told us to wait...

- for the first time in seven years. - Goodnees.

And it was worth the wait.

- It certainly was. - Oh, my.

My dear...

- Young Woong. - Oh, my.

- Thank you. - We're honored.

- But you're so busy. - Oh, no.

- Right. - Let go of his hand now.

You're the best singer out there.

- You're a hero to us, - Goodness.

- just like your name. - I mean...

He's a hero, just like his name, Young Woong.

Let go of his hand, and return to your seat.

Come on.

- I actually... - Yes?

meant to go and watch your concert.

- Take a seat now. - I meant to go.

- Hey! - I mean it.

- We can't start the show. - Please go to your seat, ma'am.

- Come back to your seat. - Right.

- I was so curious. - We waited for two hours.

- Totally. - This was our first time...

- in seven years. - Right.

Did you not know I was coming?

- Not at all! - Not at all! We just...

- found out as we entered. - We had no idea.

They had the door closed...

and stopped us from walking by this area.

- Goodness. - My heart dropped.

Totally.

- Hello, everyone. - Hi!

- Hello. - Welcome.

Goodness.

(They don't care if the host is coming in or not.)

He's such a star.

A star?

I wanted you to spend some time with him,

so I came in later.

- I'm so starstruck. - Right?

- My heart is still racing. - I know.

But he looks so pretty in real life.

- Thank you. - It's a huge day for us.

Definitely.

- This is amazing. - I never even imagined...

- that I'd see him in person. - I know, right?

I was going to see him.

I even made a call.

I'm exhilarated.

So, we have...

the mothers' president,

Lim Young Woong.

- Please say hi to the mothers... - Yes?

that are watching at home.

This is my first variety show in forever.

It's nice to meet you. I'm Lim Young Woong, a singer.

- Nice to meet you. - Great.

My Little Old Boy is an amazing show.

I could clap for so long and still need to clap more.

Exactly.

Your mother who raised you...

- must be so delighted. - She's one happy lady.

- Your mom must be so proud. - Right.

And his grandmother.

- Yes, my grandmother as well. - Yes.

Your grandmother lives in Anyang, right?

Yes, she's in Anyang.

- I'm also in Anyang. - She lives in Anyang.

- Because I live in Anyang. - Oh, right.

And...

- I mean... - You're all trying...

- to find... - He can't start the show.

the tiniest connection.

Oh, my gosh.

You know, today...

Well, all the mothers here are glad,

but it's been a long time since my mother...

- She's in the hospital. - has been...

hospitalized.

She was having a hard time using her phone...

as it was broken, so I got her a new one.

Then, I looked,

and she had an app that continuously plays...

- Young Woong's songs. - Right.

They have that.

It turned out...

that she's been listening to his songs all this time.

- Oh, my. - It comforts you.

- Right. - She's been listening to his songs.

I don't know about other shows,

but she always watches the shows that I'm on...

- while she's in the hospital. - Right.

- Today, - She must be glad.

- you're sitting next to me. - She must be happy.

And it occurs to me that she'll be delighted.

- Totally. - Yes.

How did you get him on this show?

- I have no idea. - I mean, how...

- I just found out today. - I'm still curious.

I came to the studio, and he was here.

They kept us in the dark.

I feel very uncomfortable on variety shows.

But I've been meaning to go back to TV shows,

and I recently got a message from a fan.

- It was an online message. - Okay.

And it turned out to be my fan's son.

His mom was a huge fan of mine,

and she passed away while waiting for me...

- to be on TV. - Oh, no.

- Poor her. - I looked...

through the messages,

- and there were a lot of those. - Goodness.

So I was thinking of getting back...

- Right. - on TV.

And my grandma told me,

"Young Woong, go to My Little Old Boy."

- She told me that. - That's great.

So I've been meaning to come here,

and they gave me a call at the right time.

- Well done. - That's how I ended up here.

- It's an honor for us. - You made the right choice.

Young Woong is incredibly influential.

Because of what he said,

the medical examination rate skyrocketed.

Right.

What was it that you said?

I normally tell my fans...

- to stay healthy. - I see.

I recently got a checkup,

so I told my fans to also get themselves checked...

so that they'd stay healthy.

I think that's when the examination rate...

- It increased. - increased.

- Goodness. - Amazing.

- His good influence. - He's so influential.

That's a great quality.

Apparently, Young Woong made a catchphrase.

What is it?

I didn't mean to make it a catchphrase.

When I film my YouTube videos, I always say,

"Stay healthy and happy," at the end.

I had been saying the same sentence every time,

so I wanted to make it shorter...

- and said, "Healthy, happy." - "Healthy, happy."

- "Healthy, happy." - And the viewers of my videos...

continued to use it as if it was a catchphrase.

- So, my fans... - "Stay healthy and happy."

say, "Healthy, happy."

- A gesture also comes with it. - Right.

- "Healthy, happy." - Yes.

- "Healthy, happy." - "Healthy, happy."

Please say it to them too.

- "Healthy, happy." - "Healthy, happy."

- I'll use that when I text people. - "Healthy, happy."

- "Healthy, happy." - Right.

- "Healthy, happy." - He does this with his hand.

- Yes, like this. - Make a right angle.

- "Healthy, happy." - "Healthy, happy."

- "Healthy, happy." - "Healthy, happy."

Young Woong has surpassed IU and Son Heung Min...

in the rankings of celebrities who are nice to their fans...

and became number one.

- But... - He's number one in everything.

his fan's favorite move is...

- the hand kiss. - The hand kiss?

- Can you show them? - How do you do that?

- Show them how it's done. - I'm embarrassed.

I hope you always stay healthy.

The smack was loud.

Getting a ticket to one of his concerts is...

- practically impossible. - It is.

- You can't think of getting it. - So,

if you manage to buy them, you become a good son or daughter.

If you fail to buy them, you become an undutiful son or daughter.

I don't even think about going...

- because you can't get the tickets. - Right.

You must be glad to hear that getting your concert tickets...

is considered a filial duty. How do you feel about that?

- I'm very glad. - Right?

And I'm thankful.

Young Woong, you've tried buying the tickets...

to your own concert?
