Life Bar (Tipsy Talk / 인생술집)

Today... Lately,

it used to be retro, but now it's newtro.

Newtro. - Yes.

Retro is the trend,

but there were always times in the past when retro was the trend.

That's why I got a retro hairstyle.

I was surprised to see him today. - I was surprised.

This is going to be a trend.

Ride a horse back home.

The memes of old sitcoms...

reach 100 million views nowadays.

Old sitcoms?

There's yours too.

The most popular one is the "High Kick" series.

"Soonpoong Clinic".

It means kids these days know. - "High Kick".

They know Mr. Porn and a farting nerd.

"Farting nerd."

They know everything. - It's the legend.

What's funny is always funny...

even for different generations. - Yes.

If you look here,

there's a convenience store.

I drank until 4am there last time.

Beer? Sitting there? - Yes.

That's the whole point.

People don't often do that.

It's hard to find people you get along with.

With friends...

I should open the door for you.

They're here. - Newtro.

Hello. - Hello.

Hello. - Hello.

I'm confessing now.

Welcome. - Thank you.

Bo Seog, Yoo Sun...

and my dear Hyeon Gyeong.

"My dear Hyeon Gyeong?" - What?

We've been friends...

for 25, 26, or 27 years. - Right.

But when you call her like that, it feels...

Did it feel weird? - He kept saying that.

"Hyeon Gyeong used to be very pretty. She was the best."

He kept talking like that. - He kept talking in the past tense.

I'm used to it now. To the past tense.

That's all right because everyone in Korea...

acknowledges it. - Yes.

But it sounds weird when you call her like that.

We used to hang out often with a few other people.

Yes. - By the way,

I asked the staff.

You two probably know each other from the old sitcom.

And you probably worked together in many dramas.

You all know each other, right? - Yes.

They're both my wives.

The recent wife and old wife.

Oh, I'm the good wife, aren't I?

Come on.

That's not true.

You think you're the first wife? - You wish.

She said, "You wish."

She thinks she is, but...

Do you remember? In the drama "Dear Sky Dear Sky"...

That was really old. - You were the first?

Yes. - That's right.

She's a lot older than you.

I was his concubine that he doesn't even remember.

That's sad. - "A concubine".

Isn't it sad? - Because...

I played a prince at the time.

I played Prince Sado. - That's right.

Was it 1988? 1989?

That's about right.

But thanks to that drama,

he became really popular among women.

I still remember that.

You were right.

Yes, you don't remember, do you?

She's almost like a good wife.

Sorry, Hyeon Gyeong. - I see.

In "Dear Sky Dear Sky"... - I...

met him in "Son's Woman".

We met in "Son's Woman". - She even said sorry.

But because we had different partners,

we didn't get to see each other often.

We weren't partners. - No.

See? She was my concubine.

It's fun to talk about the drama. - After decades.

She used to be a concubine before, - A wife.

and now she's become a wife.

The two had different partners.

My goodness. - It's messy.

It's really messy. - It's messy.

Now that we talk about it, I feel proud.

Have some, Bo Seog. - Eat up.

It's called newtro.

It's the mix of new and retro.

The rerun views...

of "High Kick Through the Roof"...

reached over 100 million views. - Right.

100 million views? - 100 million.

All kids nowadays know.

Even elementary school students.

I have a friend who lives in Jeju Island.

Her two daughters in elementary school...

was watching something with her friends.

I was like, "What's that?" They said, "This is so funny."

And it was me.

I was like, "Hey, that's me."

They were like, "What? What?"

You didn't put on a makeup.

No, it's a low resolution.

Bingo.

There it is.

I already knew that kids were watching it...

two years ago.

Then... - Right.

I went to Paju for "A Pledge to God" shoot.

Elementary school students were on a field trip.

When I arrived there,

they were like, "It's Hae Ri's mom!"

That's awesome. - All hundreds of kids went crazy.

They were like,

"It saw this. It was so funny."

They all knew.

Then one day, my daughter said,

"Mom. Can you come here for a second?"

I was like, "Why?" And you know the app?

Yes.

It's the most popular one among kids.

Kids made a parody of "High Kick"...

and posted it online.

Right.

"Mom. I'm sorry, but these guys don't know what they're doing."

"Let's film it together."

Then we posted it.

"The real mom is here!"

My daughter used me...

to increase her views on the app.

You were probably the first one...

to play your own character.

I know.

My hair was messy, I had no makeup on,

and there were no lights.

So I was like, "Can you do some photoshop?"

She said okay, then she only photoshopped herself.

She's so cute.

"I'll post a different version with my mom."

"Please look forward to the next one."

That's cute.

The real mom is playing.

It was really crazy.

You should be proud of yourselves.

Are you sure? - Yes, I am.

What? Zero?

I'm confessing now,

but it wasn't me at first.

What? - No one knows.

You weren't the cast? - Who was it?

It wasn't me.

After "First Wives Club",

I thought if I choose another drama,

I'd probably play the same role,

so I was thinking about how to get a different role.

At the time, Jung Jun Ha and I were in the same agency.

He starred in "High Kick".

Then I read in the news in the US...

that "High Kick 2" might start.

I read it on the internet news.

Then I returned to Seoul.

I called Jun Ha.

I told him I'd like to be in the show...

and Jun Ha arranged a meeting with the director for me.

I met the director...

and he asked me if I saw "High Kick!", which I didn't.

I lied, "I really watched it a lot. It was so fun."

My goodness.

He said the casts were unofficially decided...

so he would cast me later for another show.

So I told him I was just meeting him as a fan...

and that was all. - You pretended you had no desire.

Later, he called me...

and said, "It's a minor role. Would be it all right?"

"Can you speak English well?" I had to act as an English teacher.

So I told him I was more confident in doing athletics.

That's why you acted as a gym teacher.

That's why I practiced splits and kicks so much.

That's how you were cast. - To be honest,
