Whenever Possible (틈만나면,)

We're in Eunpyeong-gu.

We're in Eungam-dong, Eunpyeong-gu.

Due to the absence of my stylist,

my outfit today looks a bit off.

They would've looked good together if this were deep navy.

- I see. - But my sweater...

- It's not deep navy. - It's not.

But you still need to wear your coat.

I don't need to wear it. The weather is good today.

- You might look cold. - Okay.

You don't have any information about today's guests?

Well, I didn't get any information about today's guests.

- Who could they be? - Are they singers?

It's been a while since we had singers on our show.

- My gosh. - This is crazy.

This is surreal. I used to run here every day.

It's crazy.

I used to live here...

when I was 24 or 25 years old.

- Here? - I practically lived in the gym.

- The gym here? - Yes.

It's so cold.

- You didn't bundle up today. - Gosh, it's freezing.

- I didn't. It's so cold. - Right.

You still need to bundle up. You were trying to look stylish.

No.

Being on the same program for over 16 years...

Wait. I can see Sung Hoon and Dong Hyun.

My gosh. They are here.

Who? I see.

- Yeon Seok, they're finally here. - Yes.

We kept saying it last week.

This is a good workout for Yeon Seok.

- "It's a good workout." - It's a good workout.

Gosh, it's stressful.

They're here.

Dong Hyun.

Hello.

(Whenever Friends: Choo Sung Hoon and Kim Dong Hyun)

(Former national judoka, now a martial artist)

(A middle-aged man who lives and dies for style)

(The Korean UFC fighter with the most wins ever)

(The driving force of winning "Physical: Asia")

(But now, he's the driving force of variety shows.)

(A magic spell that helps overcome any hardships)

(They went through their prime years together...)

(and became good partners at the 2nd peak of their careers.)

- Hello. - Hello.

(Whenever Possible welcomes fighters for the first time.)

- Where are your bracelets? - My gosh.

- "It's a good workout, Dong Hyun." - Hello.

- "It's a good workout." - "It's a good workout."

- Good partners. - Good partners.

- Sit down. - Let's sit down.

This is crazy.

- You're joining us today. - Yes.

Walking up the stairs was a good workout, right?

Yes, it was a good workout.

I'm pretty strong.

- Strong? - This is nothing.

- Good partners. - Good partners.

- You have a catchphrase now. - Right.

- Are you okay? Aren't you cold? - Yes.

- It's freezing today. - Why...

- I told him... - It's so cold.

- He kept saying that. - Why...

- I hear it will snow later. - Right.

- Sung Hoon. - My stylist got me this outfit.

- You do look stylish. - Well,

- it's so cold. - Here's the thing.

If you want to look stylish, you have to bear...

- the cold and the heat. - I've known him...

for 20 years.

- You know winter jackets? - Yes.

- Those jackets that keep you warm. - Yes.

I've never seen him wear one.

He always dresses up, even in winter.

See? That's why I said to wear cardigans.

It's not the same with you.

But still.

The weather is okay, right?

But it looks like you might catch a cold.

- Really? - But Sung Hoon might beat it.

He catches a cold so easily.

- I get sick quite easily. - He gets sick easily.

- I get sick easily. - He doesn't look like the type.

- He gets a runny nose too. - Right.

- Really? - I get sick so easily.

We're in the same agency, so I hear his news.

I'd ask about him because I want to work out with him.

They'd say, "He's sick now."

"He's not feeling well."

Your skin is drier than I thought.

You apply your lip balm generously too.

- He applies it all over his face. - He always applies it.

Right.

All over his face.

Why do you apply it all over your face?

This part is really dry too.

Around my nose.

I need to smell it too.

To smell it?

- Sung Hoon is a manly guy. - Yes.

So you'd think he doesn't care about that.

- He goes to a dermatology clinic. - He should.

- Why... - You do go to the clinic.

- Hold on, Dong Hyun. - Why did you say that?

You and Sung Hoon both competed in the UFC.

- You were both UFC fighters. - I totally respect him.

- You respect Sung Hoon. - I respect him.

- Right? But on variety shows, - Yes.

why do you always pick on him?

- That doesn't make sense, right? - Right.

Why do you do that?

Well, the thing is...

- back in the day, - Yes.

- I was quite scared of him. - Okay.

I couldn't speak my mind to him.

- What about now? - We're getting old together.

- So I can speak my mind. - He...

He keeps mocking me.

No. I don't do that.

Gosh, that's hilarious.

I need to take care of him.

Okay. I'm like his aide.

We're in Eunpyeong-gu.

Does one of you have any ties to Eunpyeong-gu?

- Do you have any ties? - I...

This is where the most important memory lies.

I went through the toughest time of my life here.

The first martial arts gym I joined was here.

It was here?

So I lived in this neighborhood...

from 2003 to 2007.

- You lived here for 4 to 5 years. - Yes. In the gym.

- In the gym. - I see.

I used to run around here every morning.

- Here? - What's the name of the stream?

This is Bulgwang Stream.

- Bulgwang Stream. - This is Bulgwang Stream.

I used to run here every morning.

I was sleeping on the third floor.

Around 5am or 6am,

I would hear the buses running.

- For some reason, it'd vibrate. - I see. The first bus.

Right. I remember waking up to the sound of the buses.

I'd go all the way there too.

- It's a memorable place for him. - Right.

- It's crazy. - This is nice.

The gym is still there.

- It is? - Yes.

The people at the gym must be so proud.

I'm always on their flyers.

- I'm doing this pose on the flyers. - I bet it says, "former member."

I'm always on their flyers.

We'll have to get lunch around here later.

Is there a good restaurant you used to frequent?

There's a Chinese restaurant where jumbo jjajangmyeon is famous.

But I'm not sure if it's still there.

There's a famous seolleongtang restaurant too.

I always went there when I caught a cold.

- It's famous. - It's cold today.

- Seolleongtang sounds good. - Because it's cold?

- Seolleongtang sounds good. - Yes.

It was the best meal for me when I caught a cold.

When my friends came to visit me,

to treat them to an expensive meal,

I'd take them to a loach soup restaurant.

- There's a loach soup restaurant? - Yes.

- This is your hometown. - It's got everything.

- Yes. - That's amazing.

What do you usually eat for lunch?

When I get hungry in the morning,

I have a meal. And that's all I eat for the day.

- That's my diet. - Really?

- A lion. - Yes.

- Then in the morning... - Yes.

- I sometimes eat steak. - A lion?

- He's a lion. - Why?

Lions hunt when they're hungry.

They starve for a week after going hunting.

- This is how he mocks me. - I'm serious.

I'm serious. He's like a lion.

- This guy... - They don't starve for a week.

- Or was it three days? - It's because they can't catch any.

- It's because they can't catch any. - Right.

- That's why. - Right.

I'm not so worried today.

- Right, Yeon Seok? - What do you mean?

- They're athletic. - Right.

- Well, we fought on global stage. - Yes.

We can definitely overcome any anxiety or stress...

- from the games. - Right.

- Did you... - Weren't you ranked eighth...

in the welterweight division?

I was ranked sixth.

- I'm sorry. - Eighth and sixth...

- He was ranked 8th. - I was ranked 8th.

- I see. You were ranked eighth. - It's not a big difference.

It's a huge difference.
