YT 4/6
GHS: Let me just pull it out. (must be a knot in SP’s hair) I keep on worrying about it.
SP: While waiting to come out, I must have gotten nervous and ?jjur-da?
SY: they really seem like genuine/pure friends.
KSW: Dara, do you happen to know that GHS almost became a member of 2NE1?
SP: I also heard it from Bom but I think YG President would know the truth.
TY: Of course, President would know the whole truth. (sarcasm?)
WY: HS, which 2NE1 song do you like?
GHS: 2NE!~ that one.
SP: Fire~
WY: Let’s hear a song from a member of 2NE1 and the possible member of 2NE1. Yeah!
SP: I am more nervous here than at Music Bank.
(performance)
KSW: personally, I think it was a good idea that GHS did not become a part of 2NE1.
GHS: It is hard.
KSW: You know that Pres Yang lends money to GHS.
SP: uh?!
KSW: Did you ever get any feeling that she gets ?abused?
SP: money?
KSW: Ahh, you didn’t know?
GHS: they don’t know.
SP: I don’t know anything about the money, but I see that he treats her nicely. I would still address him as president, but HS calls him HyunSuk Oppa. Right?
GHS: yes.
SP: They seem to be close and so he treats her nicely.
SY: Have you ever been surprised by her?
SP: Ah, on 2004, 12/31, There is something called One Concert where all the YG singers come together. When the concert ends, it is the morning of Jan. 1st. I was just sitting at a corner. But HS went around to all the oppas and to the president for New Year’s gift money. She did it so cute and pretty.
GHS: At that time, I took away a lot! (laughter)
SY: If it was me, I would be jealous.
SP: I wasn’t jealous but ,,,just ,,ah, she is cute. She has many qualities that I do not have, so it looked good to me.
KSW: You must ordinarily talk very little.
SP: Compared to our previous get-togethers, I think we have talked the most here. (laughter)
KSW: Does he tell you maybe you have to change or something?
SP: Since I am more wild on TV, pres.Yang once said, ‘if you want to talk with Sandara, you have to take a camera.’ (laughter) I am pretty quite to start and he is still the president so I am staying quiet. But he says I am pretending to be quiet.
KSW, excuse me, But did you just do an imitation? (Dara waves NO)
KSW: It seems like most YG members imitate the pres,. GHS, can you also imitate him?
SY: after spending time, it is always possible.
WY: (hearing GHS clear her throat) She is getting ready now.
GHS: (imitating pres. Yang) Yah! Don’t sing! (laughter)
SP: Since we (2NE1) were having a long break, I expressed to others that I would like to try acting and mc work. Somehow pres.Yang heard the rumor about me. One time, I accidentally bumped into him. He says me to; Sandara, you should just try to sing a little better. Don’t you think? (screen: Dara’s imitation also success) Maybe he was just telling me to do one thing well. I will work hard.
KSW: GHS is doing all kinds of work. What do you think about that?
SP: She is always advancing ahead of me even though we are same age. She is now a director. It is amazing to me. I visited her at the acting part and heard that she likes being called Dir. Goo. She is a friend that I can learn a lot from.
WY: Let us call her Dir. Goo. Hello, Dir.Goo. (GHS looks embarrassed)
KSW: Dara, you just said that you want to act. What if Dir. Goo casts you?
SP: It is good. One condition,,about the male actor,,,No, if it is a good project…
WY: is there a particular actor that you want?
SP: Kang Dong Won-ssi?
TY: No you cannot! No, No,,…All right,,go ahead.
SP: Whoever it may be, I will learn and do my best.
SY: She brings it up and she takes it back.
KSW: What kind of friend do you want GHS to be to you?
SP: She has been that way until now. But I hope that she continues to be a friend who send me brightness like the sun.
All: awed by her comment
WY: She really came prepared. (laughter)
KSW: I heard that you came prepared with a special gift.
SP: A year ago, before our debut, we were invited to HJ’s radio show. At that time, I had a desire to be a mc, so I always carried a mike around. When she saw it, I thought she wanted one herself.
HS: you remember that?
SP: yes, I promised to make you one. But after that you did not invite us back so,,Even though a year has passed, I made one for you.
All: wow, so pretty,,we thought it was for GHS.
HJ: woah, it is my number 1 treasure. (mike has DJ Choi written on it.)
KSW: Dara, do you have anything you want to say to a friend that you have not seen for a while?
SP: Let’s have a meal together. (shy) I will say it to her separately.
GHS: I will buy.
SP: no, go dutch? (laughter) (Dara uses many Korean wors with double sounds like jj, dd, etc. that must be very cute and funny)
KSW: anyway, I hope that you see each other more often and continue on with your firm friendship and thank you for coming out today.
KSW: If there are many who praise your diverse activities, there are also who look at it as ‘fake power or a bluff’.
GHS:yes, they can look at it that way. But whatever the person has (i.,e, talents), the more the person ,,
WY: develop them..
GHS: yes, develop what they have is a very necessary part. You can get intoxicated by alcohol or whatever. But what is wrong with also getting intoxicated by you? That is how I think.
WY: (softly yet intensely) that is right.
GHS: ahh, it is difficult.
KSW: As I listen to you, I feel like the term pal-bang-mi-in=all-around beauty seems to fit you well.
All agrees
KSW: Of course, if you interprete pal-bang-mi-in positively, it means somebody who has the ability to be good at everything. However, if it is negatively interpreted, it is talking about a person who may have lots of talents but is not specially good at anything particular. What do you think about that?
GHS: But I do think about, do I have to be really good at something? Do I have to be the best, number 1 only? Everybody who is not the number 1 are number 2, number 3 or the very last. But is it necessary to do that? This work or other types of cultural work, we do it to enjoy them. (on screen: more important than competition is to enjoy) If what I want to do is not one but many things and I may not do them properly, I feel that it is more important to just try/do them.
WY: challenging yourself.
GHS: yes.
KSW: All the work that GHS is doing now, I think we will all be curious as to how she continues to develop them.. (All agrees)
YT 5/6
KSW: have you ever heard people say that you, ‘nuh kkendah=you break it’ ?
(screen: kkenda=break is used when the already established or preconceived images/ views/ beliefs/ideas break down, i.e. )
GHS: yes, I heard it often.
KSW: mm. First, when I see you just from your appearance, you appear frail. And you have an celestial female image.
GHS: In reality, I am generally good-natured. Sometimes, I hear lots of people tell me I am like a man.
TY: like a general?
GHS: yes. A general (on screen: General Goo)
KSW: When I see you, you seem quiet, quiet and seem bashful. You seem like a person who would fall into your own world and not be too concerned with others’ affairs.
GHS: But I tend to be more meddling than expected. Once I was driving back home, there was a taxi in front of me. Whenever we stopped at the red light, I would see the driver seemingly choking the person besides him. I immediately determined that an emergency situation is occurring. I just chased after that taxi, thinking at that moment that I needed to save that person. So, I stopped my car in front of that taxi. But I discovered that the taxi driver was trying to fix the head rest of his car by kind of choking it. (laughter)
KSW: you did this alone?
GHS: yes.
KSW: this is not meddling, but a chivalrous spirit.
(on screen: GHS who cannot tolerate immorality/injustice.)
SY: then did you immediately return home?
GHS: immediately I made a U-turn and went home. (laughter)
WY: her image seems to be that she rarely get angry and even if she does get angry, she would quietly deal with it to herself.
GHS: I can get impetuous and flare up. But at times I regret too.
SY: When you flare up, do you also say rough words?
GHS: Ah, you mean curses?
SY: yes.
GHS: Definitely, I would use curse words that has a mix of affection in it.
(screen: affection meets curse?)
TY: like what?
GHS: you know that expression, ‘like a puppy/dog’? (Such irony: GHS is looking so sweet but she is referring to a curse that is very rough in Korean language. Notice the facial expressions of the mc’s!) But, for me, the people that I really, really like or very close to, if I curse at them, it also means that I really love them.
(on screen: curse brimming with love!)
WY: So, those who get cursed out by GHS are receiving love from her.
HJ: It is so different from your image and a very wild personality. Wouldn’t such a personality be negative when you are dating?
GHS: When I am dating, to tell you the truth, I am not like that. I try hard to be more like good mother-good wife.
SY: the best female(?)
GHS: in front of someone that I like, I do turn into a woman. (laughter)
(on screen: GHS, if you know her, she kkenda everything!=she breaks down all preconceived images about her.)
SY: what is your style of love?
GHS: If I love someone, I love them even if their socks smell. I used to deliver packaged lunch boxes.
TY: lunch boxes take lots of effort and care. All agree.
GHS: I would make them and sometimes also order.
KSW: That does not sound like a dating person. She is making food for them and making sure they are healthy.
WY: maybe a dormitory caretaker/ajuma?
HJ: a mother.
GHS: But I feel that that is the right attitude to love someone---with the mind of a mom.
If you marry, he becomes your husband. As you live together, you may sometimes cannot stand him. But at that moment, instead of thinking of him as your husband, but as your son. With your son, you will always love that person no matter what. If he drops food while eating, you would wipe it for him. So, I try to think of my boyfriend not as my boyfriend but my son,..I think that I have always thought that to love that person in the way of original love (screen: mother and child) is the right way. (sort of like unconditional love?)
KSW: But what are you going to do, if your boyfriend gets drunk and calls you Mom?
(GHS just smiles at that.)
KSW: if someone that you like does appear, do you tend to approach that person directly?
GHS: yes.
TY: how?
GHS: I send letters. I call. And if I like the person, I just feel like constantly feeding the person.
KSW: is he an animal/baby(could not clearly hear)? Why do you keep on ‘feeding’ him? (laughter)
(on screen: Always hungry boyfriend)
WY: I heard that you once made a proposal to Jung Woo Sung-ssi…
GHS: (shaking her hands vigorously—screen says with lightening speed) no, no, that was not like that. (WY imitates GHS) (GHS tries to calm herself down) Regarding Jung sunbae, he is working on directing a movie these days. I happen to see him at a play performance that I attended. I asked him for help with my short film. So, he kindly monitored my short film project and I personally received much help from him.
KSW: You met him for the first time and you approached him?
GHS: (looking at audience and again vigorously shaking her hands which rest of mc’s follow) no, I did not approach, that is not it…..
KSW: the more and more I get to know her, she seems small yet sturdy. These days, is there someone that you want to appraoch with some push?
GHS: I really like SNSD. (TY points to herself)
SY: who among SNSD?
GHS: personally, I like Yoona-ssi. (on screen: Yoona’s fan) We did contact each other but never met in person. Yes, we called on phone and texted each other.
KSW: That is what you call approaching someone with some push!
GHS: Last year at the Busan Film Festival,
WY: oh you went to Busan!
TY: He is from Busan,
GHS: Yoona came to present awards there. It was a distance of 100meters and I waved her a greeting from there and exchanged texts with each other.
HJ: That was the end.
Sound of Boom!
part GHS dn yoona nih bukan kaka sue yg translate~~
Kim Seung woo: Is there a person whom you’d like to get close to?
GHS: Personally, I really like SNSD
KSY: Which SNSD member do you like?
GHS: Personally, I really like Yoona. We used to call each other from time to time.
ALL MCS : Oh really?
GHS: However, I have never actually met her. But we only call each other up or send text messages to each other.
KSW: This is how she would butt in.
GHS: Last year, during the film festival in Busan.
Woo young: Ah you were at Busan, huh.
GHS: Yes
Taeyeon: This guy is from Busan.
GHS: Yoona was there to hand out an award. She was about 100m away from me. We said hi to each other. Then we exchanged text messages. So yeah.Taeyeon: She only got to see Yoona 100m away.
Yoona suddenly comes out. 2nd surprise guest! Caption: Hyesun and Yoona first meeting.
KSW: Our 2nd guest is Yoona-ssi. Have a seat.
Taeyeon: For me, I was able to meet you for the first time, since you were invited as our guest. I didn’t know you were friends with Yoona.
Mc comments : Interesting..
Woo young: Don’t tell me Yoona is going to leave soon like this.
One of mc: Alright, thank you for coming today, Yoona.
HS to Yoona: Nice to meet you ( shakes hands)
KSW: She is so excited to meet you.
GHS: Eotteokke!
Other female mc: Why are you so awkward with her when you have been calling each other and sending text messages…
GHS: Tears are coming out…(wipes her eyes)
KSY: Why are you crying?
GHS: it’s because I’m so surprised.
KSW : Yoona, did you realize how much she likes you?
Yoona: She would tell me that I’m doing well for our song promotion. She also said she really likes our song. She compliments me a lot.
KSW: Did you ask for her number first?
GHS: I’m friends with SNSD’s choreographer. So I asked the choreographer.
Yoona: I was really surprised when I first got her call. I really liked it. We kept telling each other that we’ll see each other someday. But we never actually met. However, I came here to see her.
Female mc: So you guys finally meet here.
KSW: What did you write in your first text, Goo Hye Sun.
GHS: I just wrote “Hello”
Taeyeon: I want to add in the dots after her “Hello”, it must’ve been awkward.
GHS: She is very sociable. So she was trying to make me feel comfortable around her.
Yoona: You don’t have to use honorifics.
Taeyeon: Hyesun, you still use honorifics with her, right?
Yoona: I asked her to stop using it. But she feels awkward not using it.
Woo young: You know how we’re talking about how certain action Hyesun does are turn-offs? I feel like that goes the same for Yoona.
Taeyeon: yes a lot!
GHS: I saw the Win-Win episode where Yoona showed her aegyo.
Yoona: Oh really?
WY: Don’t tell me you…
KSY: Do you want to see her aegyo again?
GHS: Yes. Caption: Let’s see her aegyo that turns you off!
Yoona: I feel embarrassed when people ask me to do it.
Taeyeon: This is the only aegyo Yoona shows.
1,2,3 Yoona calls HS “Eon~~ni~~!!!” all break out of laughter!
Taeyeon: She does that so much back in our dorm. My gosh…
GHS: I think that was adorable.
Yoona: Thank you! Would you like to join SNSD? Soshi unnies tell me how much they hate my aegyo.
KSW: Yoona, what do you like about GHS?
Yoona: I mean she’s really pretty. People have been telling me that I would get along well with her.
KSW: These two are weird.
WY: It feels like they’re on a blind date or something. I mean they’re like being shy.
Yoona: There is a saying, “You meet your own kind…” those two have doll-like images.
KSY: damn this world! (laughter) Caption: Damn this world, where it only remembers pretty people.
GHS: This is so embarrassing.
KSY: So this is your first meeting with her, right? Why don’t we let them talk. On screen: shows HS and Yoona holding hands firmly.
All mcs…yea yea…without any distractions..
KSY: Ask each other questions.
START!
GHS: What is your favorite food? Caption: A question that someone would ask for a blind date.
Taeyeon: That is totally a blind date.
Yoona: I’m not picky when it comes to food. Unnie, what is your hobby?
WY: She just asked her what is her hobby?
GHS: um…
Yoona: I remember watching you draw stuff.
GHS: yea. Yoona-ssi I’ll draw a portrait of you.
Yoona: really?
KSY: They’re in love (teases both of them all breaks out of laughter!)
What I’m curious about is…What do you think of Yoona’s personality? Because Hyesun admitted that she loses her temper easily. Yoona, are you the type who tolerates or loses your temper?
Yoona: I can’t really tolerate. I’m the type where I have to just let my emotions out. So if I’m mad, I just show it.
KSY: Hyesun, do you think you can handle Yoona’s personality?
GHS: Of course!
KSY: Marry her (laughter from everybody) Caption: match made in heaven!
They’re a match made in heaven.
GHS: If I was a guy, I think I would really like her.
Yoona: Unnie, I would feel the same away.
Taeyeon: Alright..
KSY: damn this world!
(laughter from everybody) Caption: Damn this world, where it only appreciates pretty people.
KSW: Let me ask you guys a final question. I mean to Yoona. What do you think of Goo Hyesun?
Yoona: Manhwa (cartoon)? If you look at her, it feels like she popped out from a comic book. A bright main character. So like…
GHS: Look who’s talking. (laughter)
Yoona: Unnie, when I look at you, it feels like I’m reading a comic book.
GHS: How cute! (laughs)
KSW: I think you two look good together. I feel like you guys should have met long time ago. Yea.
GHS: Oh my gosh, tears are coming out.Yoona: Me too
KSW: If you’re crying we have to send Yoona away.
GHS: Ok
KSW: thank you for coming here Yoona. Thank you. Caption: we hope you two will develop a deep friendship…
YT 6/6
I will not translate the whole thing here.
GHS:She has the mission to clean and shine 10 pairs of shoes in 10 minutes. To get into her work, she even put some stains on her face and hands.
KSE: Have you even shines shoes before?
GHS: for my father’s shoes
SY: for small allowance perhaps?
GHS: yes.
@1:59 Today’s promise:
3 people who posted the best statements and 1 person who posted to recommend GHS meet today at 4PM on May 25th and the time limit is only for 10 minutes.
The floor carpet is laid down and finally GHS arrives. The shoe-shine girl.
GHS: I am going to shine 10 people’s shoes today. If you are wearing shoes,
(one red-shirt guy was pushed out to give up his shoes.)
All at the studio: She is really fast and doing a good job. KSE says that she has above average skill in it.
Goo Joon Pyo arrives with his 10 cups of noodles.
Jo Joon Soo: (post #2) he posted that if GHS shines shoes, he will come with GJP hair and eat 10 cups of ramyun. (he received 2773 votes for his post)
SY: looks delicious (re. ramyun)
A person with painting equipment arrives. This person who is very respectfully making his greeting is: No Geum Hee (23 yo) If GHS is shining shoes in Myung dong, I will draw her at that time.
Screen: the beautiful shoe-shine girl and the street artist who is drawing her.
Goo Joon Pyo seems uncomfortable and is looking for something. That red sticker is?? He gives GJD the F4 warning card. He warns GHS to do a good job on shining.
GJP who uses formal language.
So Yi Jung comes with his pottery wheel. And words from GHS’ mouth on screen is: This is crazy.
Kim Dae Yoon (#3post and 2685 votes): If actress GHS is shining shoes in Myung dong, I will come as So Yi Jung and make a pottery.
GHS: have you done it (pottery) always?
Kim Dae Yoon: It is my first time ever.
Another person comes quietly. Another F4 member.
JiHoo sunbae!
Yoo Jae Hyun (#1 post with 3140 votes) If actress GHS shines shoes at Myung dong, I will Yoon Ji Hoo’s hair and play a violin.
Everybody including GHS is anticipating how he will play on the violin but Yoo Jae Hyun merely hums the song from the BOF. So GHS goes and sticks a F4 warning card on his forehead.
SY: The people who posted for you are all only men?
We hear fake Goo Joon Pyo warning Geum Jandi to just shine shoes!
She has completed shining 9 pairs of shoes in 10 minutes. She kept her promise. GHS gives hugs to Yoon Ji Hoo and SO Yi Jung. Then GJP says why he is not getting a hug!
The artist showed his 10 min sketch and he also says that he drew another one the night before.
GHS: Today was such a fun day. !0 minutes is very short but I also realized that shining shoes is a very hard and difficult work. Thank you to all the people who came today. Let us all say, Seung Seung Jang Gooname of the talk show.
Thursday June 10, 2010. SSFF 2010 Kicks-off in high fashion @ Omotesando Hills!
Award winners Ikki Sawamura & the lovely Hye-sun Ku.
After a general rundown of the festival, the first treat for those gathered was the introduction of the "bijyomo's," which translates as beautiful models. They will help us staff the festival as information guides at the venues and festival-goers will be able to vote for their favorite on Twitter here in Japan.
2 prizes were awarded @ today's opening ceremonies: The "Wadai-sho" (a sort of "spotlight" award) went to director Hye-sun Ku, a very popular actress in Korea.
The "Tokubetsu-sho" (a "special mention" award) went to popular Japanese actor Ikki Sawamura for his directorial debut short "Shoooot!"
The final highlight was introduced by festival president Testuya Bessho. First, was Vice-Minister Fujimoto from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism. This year, we are inaugurating the "Let's Travel! Project" to promote tourism in Japan through short films.
Finally our very special guest, Korean superstar actor and the president of the Asiana International Film Festival in Korea, Sung-ki Ahn was brought up on the stage to greet the press. He will take part in the Japan-Korea symposium which will be one of the highlights of the festival this year.
So we had beauties and superstar actors and filmmakers to give us a great start to this year's festival.
Stay tuned. I'll be back with the start of the screenings tomorrow.
