I Live Alone (Home Alone / 나 혼자 산다)

- It's nice to see you. - It's nice to see you.

Gosh. Ji Hoon.

You've become even more beautiful.

Not at all.

- You look like a Westerner. - It's nice to see you.

- Your hair... - It's nice to see you.

Is always wet. Did you not have your umbrella with you?

Goodness, it's his style.

Are you all cheering for Team Korea for the Olympic Games?

Of course.

The members of the Rainbow Club are doing incredibly well.

- Yes, Yeon Koung is. - Queen Yeon Koung.

- My gosh, Yeon Koung! - Yeon Koung.

(With a fiery spike during the Tokyo Olympic game, )

(she's proven her real worth as the empress of volleyball.)

There are three members of our club participating in the games.

There's Hwang Jae Gyun.

- That's right, the baseball player. - Right.

And Se Ri is the coach...

- of the women's golf team. - She's the coach.

The members of the Rainbow Club are leading the games in Tokyo.

- I love it! - Aren't I right?

- It's like an athlete's village. - It is.

The guest we invited today...

is the dark horse of daily dramas.

That's right. He's the president among the mid-aged women.

He's the new prince...

of weekend dramas, and his drama earned over 30 percent ratings.

Let's welcome Actor Kim Kyung Nam!

- Hello. - Hello.

(He's shown a brilliant performance as Trot Singer Han Ye Seul.)

(With his passionate acting, he has dominated the daily drama scene.)

(He's gotten favorable reviews on his performance...)

(He got the Rookie Award for his performance on "Come and Hug Me".)

(The rising star who is known for his excellent acting skills)

- You look like a sports star. - He's so cool.

- Hello. - Oh, my. Hello.

- Hello. - It's nice to see you.

- Hello. - Hello.

(He keeps saying hello as he feels nervous.)

It's your first time on Home Alone.

Please say hello to our viewers.

Hello, I'm Actor Kim Kyung Nam, and I've been living alone...

for eight months now.

- It's nice to see you. - He's a newbie.

Your outfit looks like that of an athlete who has won medals.

Exactly.

You look like a member of the national team.

- It's really nice. - Thank you.

How does it feel? It's your first time here.

You must be really nervous.

Yes, I am.

You know, we should help him relax a bit before we start.

You've been showing great performance as a trot singer...

on the weekend drama.

Could you sing a song for us?

It'll help you warm up and stay alert.

- It'll warm you up. - It surely will.

Could you sing a song for us?

Then I'll sing a snippet.

This is...

- It's making me more nervous. - Imagine that this is the drama.

- You're shooting the drama. - This is the drama.

- It's one of the scenes. - But he just got here.

Think of this place as the annex of KBS.

- This is the annex. - It's okay.

- The annex of KBS? - All right.

That's all.

Could you sing us one more snippet?

Let's watch how Kyung Nam spends his day.

All right.

(Kyung Nam is sleeping in a friendly pose.)

I thought he was Kian84 from the back.

No, his legs are way longer than Kian84's.

That's right. His legs are longer.

He's my height.

- You always put me in a bad light. - But the proportions are different.

You always put me in a bad light.

(He only leaves the fan on, without turning on the AC.)

(He's surprised to see himself on the screen.)

(He's forced to get up as it's too hot.)

(He turns on the AC as soon as he gets up.)

Hello, I'm Actor Kim Kyung Nam,

and I've been living alone for 8 months.

I've always wanted to live alone,

but due to financial reasons...

and other circumstances, I couldn't.

I almost couldn't move out of my parents' house.

As I started getting more work,

I moved out in November last year.

(Revealing the first apartment he got after moving out)

This studio apartment is fully furnished.

It has everything that I need.

It's not bad.

(He got himself a comfortable armchair.)

Do you play the guitar?

I learned to play it because of the drama I'm working on.

It seems like you exercise a lot.

The good thing about this place...

is the view of Jungnang Stream.

At night, you can see a beautiful view of lights.

(A cozy bedroom where you can have a sound sleep)

It seems like you got pretty much everything.

(He's the neat type who organizes everything.)

- It's a multi-level apartment? - Yes.

I'm using the second floor as storage.

Unless you put your bed on the second level,

you don't get to use it often.

(He stored the gifts he got from his fans.)

I think I know where that is. It's in Seongsu-dong, right?

- Behind Ttukseom Station? - Yes, it is.

- You guys are neighbors. - Right. It's good to meet you here.

- I live around Seoul Forest. - I see.

I go there often to take a walk.

- Shall we do that sometimes? - I'd love to.

It's going to be awkward.

You two want to take a walk together?

But it's your first time seeing each other today.

That means they're not going to do it.

They won't even meet up.

(Let's do that when we become friends.)

He doesn't blink.

(An unexpected staring game with the TV)

Did they not record his voice?

I know, it's so quiet.

It's muted.

Is there no sound?

It sounds like there is, but then it doesn't.

I'm sure some of the viewers...

- will turn up the volume. - I know.

Actually, that's more natural.

Now that all of us are used to living alone,

we start talking to ourselves like, "Shall I watch some TV?"

We do this.

- "Let me see." - "Let me see."

"What shall I do today?"

Right. You talk to yourself a lot when you live alone for a long time.

When it was just eight months in, I didn't say anything either.

- Unless someone comes to my house. - That's right.

I don't talk at all when I'm at home.

Being alone quietly itself is relaxing.

You start talking to yourself after two years.

(Kyung Nam doesn't even exclaim when he gets up from the chair.)

This is like an ASMR clip.

- Gosh. - I can't hear his voice at all.

That's how quiet I am?

Is this surveillance camera footage?

It's so quiet.

This is bad.

(Adding in music because it's too quiet)

The view is really nice though.

(He enjoys a cup of coffee although he's not saying anything.)

What's that?

- What's that? - You eat that?

- No. - I don't have coffee, so...

That's how you should separate the recyclables.

- You're separating trash. - I didn't know how to throw it,

so I looked up, and someone does it like that.

They say coffee grounds are good air freshener,

so I thought it'd be a waste to throw them out.

I thought putting it somewhere in the apartment...

would help freshen the air.

That's why I removed the grounds from the capsule.

(He opens the capsule using a knife.)

You're taking out coffee grounds from every capsule?

I tried doing it too, and I found it hard and tedious.

But once you get used to it,

- you become good at it. - You're doing a good job.

Right.
