[07-May-2009] Summary for Friday, 24-April-2009

1. SMS/ Ggong!! Are you feeling ok today? It is raining outside...
Ggong/ I am really okay today. I don't feel melancholy... Today's raining even sounds really fresh.


2. SMS/ Of all men, I only want to have my son and Ggong in the world, and wish for all the other men to disappear.
Ggong/ If all men disappear, you wouldn't have any men who you can make comparison with... haha! Listeners might misunderstand me if I say like that. haha...
What I mean is... If I become this listener's family member, she may not feel that I'm worth it, or not that precious because she won't have any men whom she can compare me with... If I can be said as a man who was chosen by you.... But please, love your first son too(referring to listener's hubby. The listener is married. In Korea, as a joke, hubby can be referred to as first son if the wife only have sons.. so the first will be her hubby followed by her other sons), and please listen to my words thoughtfully and try to understand me..


3. SMS/ My story is always read but I want to get through the phone with Ggong!!
Ggong/ You might get through on the phone before I complete my MS.. HAHAHA!! Ahhh.. I'm not responsible for that.. I don't have the power to handle that.. Only our scenarist... Sounds like I'm escaping...


Special love counseling session with match-making manager Kang Hae Rim (MMM) and comical actress Yang Hee Sung (YHS).

They are giving counseling relating to love, marriage and even divorce.

They talked about the guests' marriage life and also about their ideal type of man, and one of them pointed out about Ggong's wide shoulder as he is wearing fitting pink shirt. So, Ggong told them about his regular exercises he does in the camp these days and his goal to be muscular with six packs in his tummy. He just wants to check for himself whether he can do it or not... to see how it turns out...not for showing off to people...

They talk about men and women these days tend to find younger partner. They don't think of their age at all and always say they look young. So the ladies were arguing about it first before counseling.

Relating to appearance...
The manager mentioned that women prefer or pay attention closely into men's appearance these days. It's because there are so many competent women. Before this, it was okay if the men is capable but not good looking...

Regardless other conditions, if man has a good look, it is true that matching procedure tends to be smooth.
On the contrary, men prefer or pay attention closely into women's competence these days, not their appearance.

YHS/ It won't be difficult for Gong Yoo ssi to marry due to his appearance, huh?
MMM/ BTW, if a man is too handsome, the match making might be hard because it would be a burden to woman.
Ggong/ Then, I heard that women would naturally want to find a handsome, tall and nice man because of the natural instinct in their mind, like wanting to have a baby of that man, and that women are actually looking for a dominant gene...

Before playing the song, they talked about match-making fees depending on ages. If a KFN scenarist who is 20 years old request for match-matching, the manager said that she can get the benefit of price off (discount).. At that time, another scenarist who is 27 years old also asked them for price off.. After that, Ggong teased her (scenarist) that she had to pay more, not getting discount instead. So they all laughed.

Relating to feeling...
SMS/ Whenever I had a blind date, it is difficult for me to have a feeling of love towards man counterpart.
MMM/ A person who is good at loving finds partner's merits/strength first, then the person adjusts oneself to the partner. A person who is not good at loving finds partner's demerits/weekness a lot, then the person waits until he/she get to have a feeling.
Ggong/ If we love with a thought of marriage from the beginning, it would be a burden.

Finding a love partner is very simple. Match-making manager can easily satisfy their requests with just looks, money, pleasure... But to find marriage partner is different, because the couples have to go through many situations and difficult times. Ggong said, "I still think love will lead to marriage." Then the manager said, "Love is the beginning of marriage." Ggong then replied, "Ahhh.. I had very difficult love period, because whenever I love someone, my thoughts always relate to marriage." The manager assure Ggong that it's okay...
But these days, Ggong's thinking had changed a little bit.. Nowadays, he sometimes want to love easily, casually, not looking into marrying... Manager said that Ggong's thought is not that wrong.. but he has to think that love is just starting point to marriage.

MMM/ I think the basic in love is to go out with the person for a longer time. This allow us to understand/get to know the partner well. Although one person only go out with one partner, but the one who loved for a long time will be able to understand his/her partner. They could have a hard time together and having to concede/acknowledge/give in to partner many times, not only going out with partner when they are in good times.

Ggong/ BTW, we can find easily many playboys around us saying like, "I had loved 100 girls so far.".
MMM/ Love is surely a habit. First love can make the next/second love similar to the previous one. I mean... depending on how our first love was, the later love could be similar to first one.
The guy who says something like, "I'm a playboy and had loved 100 girls" might feel scared that he may be dumped because he couldn't love long and deep with one girl only.

Ggong/ Sticking to love is scary....
MMM/ BTW, I sometimes envy those who get to love every time.
Ggong/ I think that they are possibly strong people.

Relating to jobs, blood type...
Ggong/ An actor is not favourite jobs among partner's request, huh?
MMM/ No...Although women feel good about an actor, they have not hope in real. Because they don't think the actor will like them as a partner.
Ggong/ Ahhh... It will be difficult for me to marry...

Manager also said especially blood type AB tends to be easily decisived. (they can easily change their thought from others' saying.)

Before the song "Two people" (*meaning a couple) by Sung Si Kyung was played, Ggong commented, "It is really one of my favorite song."

Ggong asked the manager how she thinks, whether it would be difficult when he falls in love.
The manager answered Ggong that even though the girl could be captivated by his charming appearance, if he goes into love relationship, he might make his girlfriend feel bored due to his seriousness...of course, the seriousness could be a merit, but it might be lack of dynamic love... ho ho ho...This manager seems to afraid of Ggong's fans saying like this.

Ggong/ Actually I wanted to ask you about this...
(Ggong's story) Ggong's parents told him that they want Ggong to just meet a normal woman who can just help and support him gently, like his mom. Ggong understands his parents and sometimes feel that he also want to meet just a normal woman who doesn't have a job like his. He added that he seems to want to enjoy love like he used to before he became an actor. Then on the contrary, if he get married with a common girl, she may have difficulties with him and she may not be able to understand his actor's life. Ggong even used to worry on her behalf about difficult married life that she might encounter in the future. So he gets to give up.
After Ggong voices his thoughts, manager said, "You are now over worrying about your future girl. Actually, I think if a woman get to give her heart to a man once, the game is over. She would be able to endure all things.. so you don't have to worry about it that early. haha!"
Ggong/ I worried too much too early... haha!!

The manager added that in the world, there is no one who can understand me perfectly and also I cannot understand my partner. Despite we cannot understand each other well, we can still go with our partner continuously. It is because that we're just putting in our effort, sacrifice ourselves and tolerate them thinking that they have basically those personalities...

This guest may come again... All staffs and even Ggong want to be counseling.. so they said they will consider.

................................................................................

[05-May-2009] Summary for Monday, 27-April-2009

1. 20's Diary through SMS - A listener is worried about her impulsive shopping habit.

Ggong mentioned his experience.... First, he holds on to his buying impulse and goes home. Then he picks the things he want to buy in his mind only (meaning he just keep in mind which things he is interested in)

Ggong said it is a simple method though... He does it that way whenever he wants to buy something and go for shopping impulsively. He was able to control the impulse at that moment.. but he will buy the things if he wakes up the next day and still thinking and wanting to buy those things.


2. Psy counseling segment

Today Psy and Ggong seem to be more careful on counseling. Earlier on before the segment, a listener talking to Ggong on the phone thanked him and Psy for giving her good counseling. She expressed her thanks to them many times. As soon as Psy came in, Ggong extends the listener's thankfulness to him and he feels happy to hear that.

After they finished their first counseling, they played the song "Regards" by Na Yoon Kyuan & Byul to the listener who requested counseling. This song's lyrics is about a couple sending each other regards, asking about their health..and etc..after they broke up, hiding their feelings of missing each other..

Psy/ Like lyrics, can you guess how many couples there are who ask their regards after they broke up? As I know, it's nonsense... or else, the couple will have a feeling that they are watching how well the ex-girl/boyfriend will live. I think there are so many people who are not that cool/nice in this country. and control himself from buying them. At home, he goes to bed without thinking about those things, and when he wakes up the next day, if he still think of the things he wanted to buy, then he will go and buy it. If he doesn't think of the things he wants to buy, then it is just impulsive... so he doesn't buy it.

Ggong/ After breaking up, just being friends is a little bit...
Psy/ Are there such couple?
Ggong/ Me? I never experience...
Psy/ Ah.. yeah. You didn't.

Ggong/ To me, it is not easy... but not sure if it will be okay after a long time had passed. Actually, there are some couples around me who get along with each other as friends. In drama, sometimes I wonder, how can the couple get along with each other as friends after they broke up. I am wondering about the after story.
Psy/ I want the person who say break up first not to even try to be good. Moreover, they tend to say like, "Hope you will find better person than me." Ha... I think it is not right.
Ggong and Psy/ He he he, hu hu hu...

Psy/ Have you ever asked regards with a smile after breakup?
Ggong/ Smiling??
Psy/ Then, have you ever just ask regards? Humm... with heavy smile? Maybe you have this as your character..
Ggong/ I had made a phone call after some time.
Psy/ What made you feel and do that way?
Ggong/ That day, my feeling was just...
Psy/ You had a drink?
Ggong/ Yes, I had a drink that day.. haha..
Honestly, I missed her that day because it wasn't a long time since we broke up. Actually, eventhough I was the one who said break up first, I cried more than her. I didn't speak any clumsy/awkward/silly words to her on the phone. Just greeted her generally like "how have you been..", but I could feel that she was trembling over the phone. I also held my tremble, pretending to be okay.
I think there's a bit of "feeling of love" that still exist between us, as a couple who once loved each other. Like saying "You've been doing well?" although I was somewhat bitter when talking on the phone. And also "Be healthy..", "You are healthy, huh?", I said those because I was really worried about her. Then we came to a pause for a second. But I never said anything like "Be happy". I also said "Let's keep in touch again later", but I lost contact with her though.

Psy/ Wahhhhh.....! She seems to be in between your family and your lover.
Ggong/ Anyway, after the break up, we only made a phone call to each other once.
Psy/ Although there are many couples who made a phone call after drinking and talking badly to each other.. your case is beautiful.
Ggong/ Now that I come to think of it, her heart was very beautiful when she made a phone call to me at that time. The call even hurt me for a few days.
Psy/ Keeeahhhh.... You are romantist. Wait! Can I dare to say that you are really the last romantist these days?
Ggong/ It's too great an honor for me. Ahhh....Since I got to talk about it, now I recall that moment... It was very late at night...
Psy/ Wahhh... ! Now, with that army haircut, you turn red (blushing).. even to the top of your head.

Ggong/ I know she never drinks and say words like that, but then she gave me a buzz/call saying like, "I drank but I'm not drunk... hmmm.. I called you because I want to hear your voice." I could feel how she wanted to hear my voice, thus it must be hard for her to make the call after much hesitation.. She is not a person who usually say that way. Ahh.. then, what a useless thing to say now. Those are old history.. So, how will this story be useful? haha...
Psy/ When did this happen?
Ggong/ It happened quite long ago. Maybe during my mid-twenties..
Psy/ Then, it happened almost 5 years ago, huh? Did you have another love after that?
Ggong/ No.. That was the last.
Psy/ Keeeeaaaahhhhhhh....! Therefore, you have red spot all over your face. (Meaning that Ggong has been feeling lonely ever since he broke up.)
Ggong/ Please don't say that way... As you often mentioned that way .. like my eyes all red due to lonely..etc.. So, these days, many fans worry about me feeling lonely. I'm still okay. Because I also have Psy and my 13 team soldiers.
Psy/ Ayooo... This phrase is a too lacking in freshness/originality (too common).
Ggong/ Don't you want to go into counseling session?


After playing the song "Blue in you" by Kim Hyun Cheol & Lee So Ra....

Ggong said that he was invited to Gong Hyo Jin's birthday party before. At first he was the only guy among her friends at the Karaoke place. It was difficult for him because he was surrounded by all girls. Of course, after a while the other guys also came. Then they let him sing this song with Ok Joo Hyun, who was his junior from the same college. After singing, people told him that he is indeed Chae Han Kyul....keke..

Psy/ Ok Joo Hyun ssi really sings well. Then, Gong Yoo ssi also sings well, huh?
Ggong/ Therefore, Ok Joo Hyun ssi gave me a compliment that I sing well.

Psy/ Now, this is an urgent notice! It's been almost 4 months since I last mentioned the notice. Listeners will know that Gong Yoo ssi will sing a ballad song in my concert, December this year.
Ggong/ I don't have time to sing there..

.......................................................................................

[03-May-2009] Summary for Saturday, 02-May-2009


A listener requested the song "Song for dad, Song for noona" by a young kid Wang Suck Hyun, for her parents' wedding anniversary and she hope that Ggong will have a cute son like this little boy singer. Then Ggong reacted, "I will have cuter and nicer son than the little singer. Before this, I wanted to have a daughter rather than a son.. but these days I prefer son. Ahhh ... It's like I'm counting my chickens now before the eggs are hatched... haha.."


Session with Hong Soon Mok and Park Na Rae
There was a news that a couple finally got to meet and married since the day they broke up due to the World War II. Although each of them had their own wife and husband, but their spouses had passed away as it was already 60 years ago.

So Park asked Ggong if Hyun Kyung found him someday, after 60 years, what would he do and how would he feel..
Ggong/ If I'm in the couple's position and already have my current wife, I will continuously stay with current wife because I must love this current wife. But I might/could miss Hyun Kyung just in my mind. The couple already didn't have their hubby and wife long time ago, so they could do that.. I can understand.


Session with Jung Yup
Today they introduce singer, Michael Jackson (MJ).

While they were talking about MJ, they got to talk about army life because Ggong misunderstood JY's comment..
Ggong gave a tip to soldiers who will be enlisting.. If boss order them to do something, they should not say "I didn't understand well, can't understand..". In Ggong's case, even though Ggong didn't understand his boss's order well, he acted first (as if he understand).
Then after a short while, Ggong asks his boss again making some sense about his order. So soldier should have good sense in his future army life.

Ggong sang part of MJ's song.. "You are not alone...". He then asked JY, "Was it almost same like MJ?"

MJ will hold his final concert at London's O2 Arena from July this year to February next year... Ggong said Psy told him he will go to the concert..

Ggong's opening comment
After Ggong read opening comment related to family....

Ggong/ I'm happy to be able to have Ggong's 20 radio listeners family, especially in May, which has many holidays related to family. (In Korea, 5th is children's day, 8th is parent's day )

I'm back...! he he he
It is not the first time that I had a break though, but today, this microphone in front of me now makes me feel a bit strange...
I thought that I would not think of Ggong's 20 radio and my daily life in the camp at all during my break.

But I felt like peeking around this KFN board, making our scenarists surprised through my SMS and even wanted to send greetings to them as a listener. However, I thought it is not proper, so I restrained myself from doing so. Btw, I also hope that some day my sms would be picked during on air, surely before I finish my MS. Yeah... If I have a chance to do it, I will try... Then, ahhh! There is keen competition in sms for picking, huh?.. hu hu hu... Unconsciously, my heart seemed to be tied to the Ggong's 20. Today, I waited for the starting time of the radio show furtively.

Many of you are wondering what I did during my break, huh?
There is nothing special... Moreover, when I had my break, it was just long holidays period also. Why did I choose this period... aigo...

Although I could not carry out all my goals/wishes, I managed to have a very short trip.. If I can remember now...
I watched two movies, I had coffee at a street cafe a little late at night when it was cool and windy but I don't feel cold at all.. and I've walked through people on busy streets and there, people didn't take notice of me well! haha... I had fun. The movie I watched was "지금 이대로가 좋아요" (I like it as is now.. aka Sisters on the Road) starring our Gong actress (refering to Gong Hyo Jin). You already know it, huh? Which was very interesting.. I watched it giggling alone, sitting at the back seat in a dull theater. She did a very good job. And I also saw another movie starring Russell Crow.. humm...

I didn't do anything special... Oh!!.. I didn't expect that I get to meet Japanese fans at all.... I went to department store to shop for my mom's gift for parent's day, then I bumped onto them there... It seems like many Japanese come to Korea for shopping these days. Therefore, I was also surprised seeing them and they were even more surprised than me.

Btw, thinking back, I didn't buy my father any present. He he he... so when I was going out of my home to come back to camp, my mom told me, "Your father will become sulky". Aigo... Oh dear.. Why didn't I buy his gift...? So I'll have to make a phone call tomorrow! Yeah... Anyway, I've been through my break just like that. Ahh...

Now, I have my work that I should do. Ha ha ha ha ha.. The thing I'm most eager to do during my break..! The fun of introducing radio frequency...Ta ta... Let's get started. You can listen to Ggong's 20 in Seoul, bla bla bla.... 96.7 bla bla bla.... 101.7.......


In the message/ Ggong's laughter is very good to hear..
Ggong/ My laughter is quite good, huh? hehehe... I... I just laughed...

Today's news/ Korea is having global warming twice faster than other countries. so Korea might not have any winter..

SMS/ I have been to night club today.
Ggong recalled that he heard from a boy at the night club that he looks like Japanese.. Then Ggong spoke to him in Korean, so the boy was surprised.. maybe he thought Ggong was a Japanese tourist.


20's Diary
A listener dreamt of Ggong, that his pic was hung on the wall somewhere in Manhattan, USA.
Ggong/ Why was my photo there??

This listener got to speak with Ggong and she describe her dream to Ggong. The photo is a movie poster. Then Ggong thought that in the pic, he was lying somewhere or on something wearing very short/sexy tight brief.. like Beckham, as a commercial poster.
Anyway, she cried so much since she was so happy.. She can clearly recall her dream.. it was so touching... On the highest building in Manhattan, the movie poster half covered the building.. She was very pleased with that and very proud of Ggong, even she was proud of herself as Korean.

Ggong/ I have to go to Hollywood.. some day...
Listener/ Then, has Ggong been studying English (preparing for Hollywood)?
Ggong/ No, these days I have not... But my English studies is just an interesting/favourite subject for myself.. not going for Hollywood. I'm the one of those who think that it is very hard for the Orientals to succeed in the Hollywood. I'm always thinking to act well just in Korea. I'm simple in that way.

Ggong/ It is the first time that listener describe her dream story on the phone.. but even I also got excited following her.


SMS/ I'm very happy coz Ggong nim is back, but Ggong nim might be feeling empty/sad... kekeke.
Ggong/ No, I don't feel empty coming back to my camp. Of course, although I enjoy my break, I don't feel very comfortable whenever I was out, and even when I was at home... The feeling got more severe especially on the final day of my break. But when I come back to my camp, I feel more comfortable, even when I go to bed with my 13 team soldiers at night, I have the feeling that I'm being taken care of by them. hahaha.... Maybe I'm getting accustomed to army's life already..


A listener text in to "report" to Ggong about Psy's session last Monday because Psy played all his (Psy) songs only, mentioning to Ggong that things will be okay, because Ggong is a man of great character.
Ggong/ Haha.. Psy's bed is just next to me. I will bother him all through the night.


Another SMS mention about a listener and her family members went to the flower market together this morning. Then, they were interviewed by broadcast TV, MBC. She didn't have make-up on her face as it was very early in the morning. So, she ran away quickly. Therefore, she thinks that next time, she should go out with proper make-up.
Ggong/ You must understand me and those who have that kind of job by chance, huh? Whether it is an actor or actress, we don't want to be taken picture suddenly when we didn't prepare our face.


Session with Tearliner and guest
Tearliner is not feeling very energetic this evening. Ggong said that he was able to tell that by just looking into Liner's eyes because he is his Liner Hyung. keke....

Tonight's guest is NarU, born in the year 1984. As they are talking about their age, Ggong insist that they are in the same generation.

They talked about guest's album cover, which was painted with Oriental painting atmosphere, like a beauty of emptiness. Guest wanted to study that art so he did his album cover by himself. He even wrote his song's lyrics.

While the song was playing, Ggong and Liner were talking about the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" privately... almost leaning the chair to the back. The microphone's light was turned on suddenly, but they continue on with their talk.
Ggong/ Are you wondering what was the story we talk about during the song?
Liner asked Ggong if he had watched the movie and whether it was good.

While the song "Sleeping" was playing, Liner and guest were talking about some musical instrument. At that time, Ggong thought they were speaking some foreign language. And this guest can handle many kinds of string musical instrument, so, he played various guitars in his music by himself. Ggong feels envy whenever he gets to see/meet musician.
Then liner said that Ggong also can play.... (the guitar as well). Ggong quickly replied, "Don't say like that.. don't.. don't.. I simply just want to only act well.. Now that I come to think of it carefully, everyone has one thing he can do well in." Liner, guest and Ggong, they all just want to do only one thing that they can do well in which everyone will recognise/agree with..

Liner was working as a PD at some radio station. Ggong teased him, "Why did you quit that job? You live hard as a musician..". Liner replied he just wanted to live as a carefree person.
Then, Ggong asked Liner if he's quite rich, but regret asking the question after that. Ggong added that living as a carefree person is the most difficult.

Guest had heard from people that he's talented. Now, he wants to buy new instruments if his song is a hit.
Then Liner asked Ggong about the same question as well. While Ggong was thinking of his answer, Liner suddenly commented, "If Ggong's movie is a big hit, maybe he wants to marry.. is that right? like LSG hyung?" haha..
