part 1 2
This episode is just so freakin' funny, like OMG. I mean, Hyunjoong is always funny, but the previous few episodes weren't as funny. In the beginning, Alex and ShinAe came back to the studio (YAYYY), and the MC asked Hyunjoong who is prettier, ShinAe or Hwangbo. Hyunjoong answered that the two styles are too different; Hwangbo is South-East-Asian (lol) while ShinAe is European. But then he said that he preferred "Asian style." =)
In this episode, basically they were supposed to go on a vacation, and so they went to the man-made beach. First they did a bit of warm-up exercises, and Hyunjoong "helped" her at one point (dunno how to explain), and the audience was going wild 'cos of the skinship lol. In the previous episode, Hyunjoong said that he can dive very well, so Hwangbo threw her sunglasses for him to dive and get it. He wanted to get it, but the man-made wave came and hence he couldn't.
Then it showed Hyunjoong's interview, where he said some funny things about training his "inner strength" so that next time he'd be able to get it. The point is: when asked if he'd get it if anyone throws it, he said that it has to be "Hwangbuin" (buin=wife; he's been calling her that throughout the show xD) who throws it, if not he'd be like a puppy. Then he continued, "I WANT TO BECOME HWANGBUIN'S PUPPY!" with that biggg smile of his. OMG IT WAS SO SWEET, CAN? xDD
Next it showed the couple back at the beach, playing with the wave. Apparently Hwangbo was tired and couldn't move or something so Hyunjoong dragged her around, lol. Then they came out and Hwangbo was all tired, so she said that she's old, and asked whether Hyunjoong isn't tired, but he said, "Because I'm still young!" loll. Hyunjoong kept asking Hwangbo to rest 'cos "she didn't look too good" and teased her about her age haha. They rested on the long bench and Hwangbo asked him for any "special service" since she was tired, and he wanted to give her a foot massage! But obviously she jumped by a mile and refused. ('cos he's an idol and fear of the fans? -.-)
It showed Hwangbo's interview next, and she commented on how the warm-up exercise that was supposed to make her relax made her more nervous, and the caption said "foot massage -> leg cramp" LOL. Back at the beach, Hwangbo said she wanted water, so Hyunjoong went, but he ended up walking to the beach and scooped a handful of water hahahaha. Then they played the "catching game" again, but this time Hwangbo was supposed to catch Hyunjoong, and they also bet on ice cream. Hyunjoong said he'd run slowly but he still ran very fast, so she couldn't catch him and so she lost the bet. (She looked a bit pissed to.) But they ended up buying a can of beer to share, haha.
They sat down under the shade and drank, but they got silent so it was awkward. When Hwangbo said this to Hyunjoong, he told her to think of something else, pointed at a horse statue fountain and said, "That one there, is Jungmin spitting saliva." lol! Then they talked about Chakra (Hwangbo used to be in that girlband), and Hyunjoong said he thought Hwangbo was an Indian hahaha. He even invented an Indian name for her, "Al-ma-ja-ha-de" ROFL. They talked some more about Chakra; everything was funny haha.
Then the went back to the beach and met the CrownJ/InYoung couple (another couple on the show which I apparently have to watch too 'cos I watched Come To Play - WGM Special and they seemed so comfortable with each other), and ended up playing with the waves together. That ended this episode! ^^
o.0 that was too long for a 15-minutes clip.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I listened to SS501's Japanese songs, and except for their first single, Kokoro, and maybe two other ballads in their Japanese album, the rest of the songs are... uhm.. not exactly my favourite. lol. I wished the company had hired more people to compose better songs. They re-sung Four Chance, Again and Coward in Japanese, and while I love these songs, the original Korean versions are of course much better. It's kinda evident that the boys weren't very confident of their Japanese, which is understandable, really. Kokoro is really catchy, though. Their latest single, Lucky Days, is nice and I think they sound more comfortable in Japanese here. (The MV is so cute; Hyunjoong is being his dork self, Kyujong as the prince is so fitting, Youngsaeng looks good with his haircut, Jungmin looks pretty in a good way, and Hyungjoon is as usual so adorable xPP) I'm glad that they're doing well in Japan, but I can't wait for them to come back to Korea end of July (I think). I LOVE their Korean releases; they should totally release more Korean albums. But.. now that I think about it, DBSK is gonna release an album too, which I am ecstatic about, but I love both groups and erm.. honestly, SS501 may be overshadowed? BUT BUT I DON'T CARE I WANT SHINHWA TO SWEEP THE DAESANGS THIS YEAR. It's a great album and their last in what, 5 years? T.T DBSK or Suju or SS501 or whatever still have a long time together and they can wait!
..but I know I'll still be happy for any band who wins the award in the end. =P
EDIT: I happened to find clips of the bands winning the Best New Group award. It's kinda ironic that DBSK won the award in 2004, then presented the award to SS501 in 2005 (Hyunjoong was trying sooo hard not to cry, AWWW), and SS501 in turn presented the award to Suju in 2006 (1 2). haha. Just being random.
