Read the news on daum, so glad the boy is not seriously hurt! They should really look into the safety of these celebs who spend hald their lifes rushing on the roads just to entertain us.
B unnie, I loved what you did to my last post on the blog! Thanks so much. I think you need to fill me in on how to indent the conversations so that I don't have to trouble you to clean up my posts for me next time.
Sorry guys, haven't been posting much since I've been been busy. Exams (one more to go next week!), projects, assignments.. this week's been crazy. Thanks to the weather I'm sick too. Strangely enough I feel really happy, since things are all going well despite my falling sick. I guess this is one of those days where I love life unconditionally.
This being said, life has its ups and downs, so don't do any more of that life ending. Just thought of it since there seems to be so many suicides on the scene lately. Watching the episode made me feel even happier too! I'm gonna recap as much as I can now and do the rest tomorrow when I'm in a clearer state of mind when the medicine wears off. Please pardon any mistakes!
Last week: 1N2D goes to Busan!
We see some cuts of what they did for last week, and we're brought back to the baseball match where the guys are about to experience some new stuff. First we hear the guy in the Lotte uniform announce something.
Announcer: The first mission, sexy dance!
The camera closes up on a woman in the stands, and she's supposedly required to complete the mission. Meanwhile Seung Gi looks on in interest. Its all part of the tradition, and Seung Gi is picked for the next task, which is to do a dance. He gamely gets down to the task and does that Huh-dang bounce and that gull dance of his. It doesn't look too bad, but Seung Gi buries his head in the newspaper pompom in embarassment.
Announer: Next mission! Sea gull dance!
We them have a bunch of guys on the screen doing the hilarious dance. Someone then passes out boxes of pizza to LSG, and they happily munch on it.
MCM: Pass it over here, pass it over!
As usual, the guys HAVE to fight over food, even when its just pizza. KimC and KHD start tugging at the box of pizza, and while the guys are busy squabbling over the pizza, the crowd behind them chants 아주라. Which basically is another one of the lovely quirks the Busan crowd has while watching baseball, they're asking the guys to give up the pizza to the kids. Such a sweet gesture! Now the problem is resolved as they hand the pizza out to the kids. Next up, the crowd starts chanting 봉다리, which puzzles the guys. Anyway someone was kind enough to explain to the guys that they were supposed to wear the plastic bag thing that was being passed out on their heads. Its all to add to the fun of watching the game. We have KHD, KimC, LSG being role models and wearing their bags nicely blown and sitting on top of their heads, and we of course need to have MCM and EJW demonstrating the wrong way of wearing it. LOL. These guys are too cute for words. Anyway, the guys are all anxious about the outcome of the baseball match. The PDs remind us why they are so anxious with a quick flash to a boat on the river, because the outcome is going to determine who goes fishing (and fishing here is an UNDERSTATEMENT) at the crack of dawn the next day. The expression on their faces was priceless when the Lotte guy scored a run soon after. EJW and LSGuen looked so crestfallen, like they couldn't believe what was happening in front of their eyes.
I think the editors were really careful with the handling of this scene, because we are brought into the conversation between the PD and another staff member at the baseball match, where he tells the PD during the 8th inning that the 1N2D team should leave early, in consideration of the safety of the fans as well as the 1N2D members. They lines onscreen showed that Lotte was leading at that point of time, but Doosan caught up during the 9th and 10th inning to turn the tables around, 6:5. (Sorry if i used the wrong technical terms here, I'm not a baseball fan, I'm more of a soccer kinda girl. My apologies!) They very quickly glossed over the outcome of the match with a few lines onscreen, no fanfare or footage of the guys expressions at the outcome. Everything happened really fast here, and you get the sense that things seemed a little rushed, a tad too obvious that the editors were eager to skim over the issue. But I guess that's just a small tradeoff that we have to live with since we all don't want to fan the whole incident further. Back to the guys at their nightly meeting, and they start by first applauding the winners.
[Quick refresher, Doosan team= LSGuen, MCM, EJW, Lotte team= KHD, KimC, LSG]
KHD mentions that they had earlier made a promise to do away with Bok Bul Bok this time and all of them would sleep outdoors.
EJW: But why are you only mentioning this? There's more to that.
Yes, there's more to sleeping outdoors. Now they have to settle on which team to go catch eels and which team to go help out at the seafood market.
KimC: The doosan team should have the priority to choose before us.
KHD: Yes, but even though they have the right to choose before us, here we should do this.
EJW's caps [What is he up to again?!...]
KHD then goes on about how they should change the team that goes on the boat since the viewers would not want to see the same faces on the boat again, thus they should consider switching teams, or something along those lines in his usual warped logic. I think he mentions how MCM hasn't been on the fishing expeditions even once, and MCM agrees, saying that it would be absolutely uninteresting for him to go on the boat and it would be more interesting if he stays on dry land. LOL, KHD sees that his tactic is not working, and kneels down to start over again. Immediately EJW reacts in the same way, going on his knees.
EJW: Ah! What are you doing again?!
KHD: If our MCM refuses (to go on the boat), then our LSG will have no choice (but to go on the boat). MCM hasn't been on (the fishing expeditions) even once before.
Caps for MCM[I'm not taking the boat even if i die] Caps[KHD keeps applying pressure on MCM]
KHD: At the same time, our nation's best able man, the labourious entertainer, LSGuen hasn't seen the boat even once before too. The most important thing is (clasps his hands together) I will go too.
Caps for LSGuen, EJW [Weren't you supposed to go in the first place??]
KHD: In this case, I will take the boat too.
EJW: You were supposed to take it in the first place!
KHD: We have our little brother on this team that we should spare a thought for. Our little brother LSG...
LSG: I'll go even if i throw up blood!
MCM: Even if he's a weak little brother, the little brother we love.. (KimC cuts in, coughing)
KimC: I'll be back, gonna go get some flu medicine first!
KHD: Look, teacher KimC has a flu now you know.
LSG and MCM start coughing to get out of going on the boat too. LOL.
LSGuen: Just look at these people, they're really going all out to the point of falling sick.
[This is kinda a rough translation of what he said. He's trying to say the two are gong to the extent of falling sick to get out of the boat trip)
KHD then keeps going on about how he's going on the boat trip (he's trying to make himself sound self sacrificial, but the funny thing here is that he was originally supposed to go anyway!) LSG and MCM starts bickering, with LSG asking what's to be done about KimC (since he was sick). KHD asks EJW if he wants to make any changes and EJW replies that he was given the right to choose (and his answer is obvious, stay on dry land). The PD cuts in here, to which KHD says he'll go because KimC is sick, and then he goes on to worry about LSG too, who was extremely seasick the last time they went on the fishing mission. Aww. So sweet of KHD! After this, LSG basically starts over-reacting at the thought of going on the boat.
LSG: Ah, even if i throw up till I collapse, I'll still go!
This line earns a stupefied silence from EJW and LSGuen, explaining the large ... that flashed on the screen. KimC tries to defend him and while everyone is trying to get their opinions in, LSG flares up for a moment in his typical Ook fashion

LSG: It's ok. Ah, IF I DON'T GO WHAT WILL HAPPEN? I have to! (he means how can he not go)
EJW: Hey, IF I DON'T GO WHAT WILL HAPPEN? why are you like this? Why must you go?
Someone in the group says its ok. The two kids are on the verge of quarreling in earnest.
LSG: No, its not that I won't go! If I don't go you will object..
EJW: Then why are you being like this?
KHD: Hey we are in the middle of filming, don't be so serious, you!
EJW says he's like this because of the way LSG is behaving. At this moment, LSGuen steps in to save the day.
LSGuen: I think I have to go (on the boat trip). I've been thinking seriously about it...
EJW: You've been thinking about it now?
LSGuen: Thinking about it, our show airs for around 70 mins, and I only appear 8 minutes out of the 70!
HAHAHA! I love LSGuen and his moments sometimes. He stepped in at the right time to save the guys further trouble, and cleanly sidestepped the awkwardness with his brilliant reason. He says he wants the camera to film him more when they are catching the eels, and that's the end of the first part of the problem, since KimC wouldn't have to go with LSGuen taking his place. Another LOL moment when LSGuen gives another reason "Look at KimC hyung. Just plain looking at him makes you feel he's pitiful!" Now it all boils down to MCM and LSG, and LSG looks mighty uncomfortable at the thought of taking the boat, and coughs furiously like he's about to throw up. I know how it feels to be seasick, so I really empathise with him (but this doesn't mean I don't feel he's a little sneaky here, haha!)
LSG: AHHHH. I'm going. Mong hyung, I'll go.
MCM: Of course.
LSG: Mong hyung can't go even in such circumstances, he won't go even if he dies! So what can we do?
MCM covers his ears and pretends he can't hear what KHD and the others are saying. The guys are worried for LSG, and KHD says because MCM won't go, LSG has to go, and the conversation gets chaotic as LSG keeps saying "Mong hyung won't go!" while KimC is trying to get MCM to go listing stuff to make MCM feel guilty. While LSG is trying to pacify KimC, MCM quietly creeps up behind LSG and gives him a big kick.
MCM: YAH! I'LL GO!! I'm going! I'll go!
Yes! Their antagonistic tactic works and MCM loses his cool. So its settled that KimC, EJW and LSG go the the market, while the rest go on the fishing trip. The guys then get down to resting.
All right, this seems a good place to stop for now. Can't hold up any longer, the words are all swimming in front of me. Be back tomorrow!
