Dindunz sent me a link with LSG singing Sting's "Shape of my heart" from his concert, the one where he played the drums. It's fanvid of course as that song was never aired and it's quite far from the stage. Here's the daum link: http://blog.daum.net/bklgsss/10583370
If no one else uploads it I'll do it in a few days. (Please someone upload it , bedifferent?)

Done. Low Quality. It's the best I can do without re-editing and compromise the quality even more. A blogger's embedded copy of an embedded video. I couldn't locate the original source.

I have one request from our resident translators. Anyway we could get a bit of trans of the convo's that were done in Loveletter? Seung Gi looked embarrased at one point and then they were all laughing so much. I could only make out that they were talking about KimC too so I assume they mentioned stuff about 1n2d. Even something brief or a general idea would be much appreciated and of course always done at your convenience. I'm just so curious since they seemed to have had a lenthy interview this time and it looked very amusing.

Here it is. yonnie, you're suppperrrr incredible. Thank you. Very cute interview of both guys. So funny too. Is it possible to love them even more? So refreshing to see two grown men express their affection for each other freely in public. It's not always the case with most guys. Yay for the sensitive twenty-first century men. Hey girls, we must clone LSG. He's a rare find. Is he for real? Mong's such a hilarious and big-hearted person. The bit about KimC had me rolling on the floor. Haha. Uhh, Seunggi... you can text me anytime. BTW, I made up my mind - I'll volunteer to be your stylist. I'm willing to defer grad school for this good of a cause. Hmm, 30-something, eh?

All right! Filming has begun in China for 1N2D. Or 4N5D for those who are particular. This is taken at one of the high schools in China. From what i see on the leeseunggi.ifensi thread, the China fans are really excited that he's there. Man, makes me wish he'll come to SG. Here's some pictures taken during their filming in China, from leeseunggi.ifensi of course. I don't like our boy's outfit here. The hat doesn't match the shirt and the shirt doesn't match the jeans. Did his stylist take a day off?? LOL.

Haha, i see a lot of you guys are beginning to like the current version of You're my woman . Actually what i meant by i wish he'd hit the high notes with more power is that i wish he'd give a little more fullness to the higher notes. The way he's singing the song now, the higher notes in the chorus actually sound a little flat and it makes that particular part sound a little jazzy (in my opinion of course), which is kinda out of sync with the rest of the song. Well ok, I'm just really picky. The performance was great, actually

Thanks for all the links, for those who posted them! [b]ivey79[/b], I'll translate whatever i understand from the interview later (when i get the time to watch it) if no one does it first ohh, bedifferent unnie has already posted an eng subbed version of the interview. THANKS UNNIE!!

Have a great day guys! yay, 1N2D to watch tomorrow! So happy!

[agnuque]

He's my wallpaper right now, ^^ Lol. Anyway. I'm gonna be posting up a SeungGi-Chae Yeon fic soon. Any suggestions on who I should pick for the couple?

It's either:
Chae Yeon and Kim Jong Kook
Chae Yeon and Tei

But our cute little Seung Gi wil definitely be there! ^^

I'm a big TeiYeon fan, but I'd be glad to hear more from other people as well! Gaaa. I'm doing soompi instead of homework
Seung Gi's so cuuuuute!

agnuque, soompi or homework? tough choice. fanfiction, wow. you must be a very good writer. good luck and have fun.

o51029, so nicely put. I think for him, the fireworks have faded because he has changed. He has outgrown the song. Still that does not take away the fondness that LSG has for those memories. I think he'll always be thankful that he had the chance to experience them. Like many here, I do miss the power so. It just make me more appreciative of how special the old voice was. I'm not sure if I'll ever like the new version. That's just me; it's my idiosyncrasy. Seriously, I did laugh out loud at eequeezee's explanation. Yes, he was so crazy about girls in those Xman episodes. Uhhhuhh, the Giyeon moments were partly scripted, partly real. It's a nice of an experience as any teenage guy could ever hope for.

eequeezee, I like MCM MV. I love that it is unpretentious - like the man himself. Believe it or not, I did fret over the beginning of the song (where everyone was saying "I love you") while editing my slide show. I didn't know where to make the cut. Now, I wish that I had left the song untouched. The beginning is just so cute. I'm not a fan of MCM so I overlooked how good of a performer he is. I forget that he is also an acclaimed singer/song writer/musician before the variety show fame. The MV shows how he just puts himself out there for the performances. I like how it reflects his appreciation for their support.

o51029, thanks so much for all the videos. The Music Bank performance is good. Solid perf. More animated than last week. The jeans/shoes are nice. Luv their wash and cut. Still on the fence about the accessories. Are they chains? ropes? Are they alive? Whatever that are attached to the jeans these days, they need to be shorter! I don't know if he is growing out his hair for Iljimae or not; he does need a trim.

About YDH LL. So many have already given their thoughts. I totally love yours, ivey79. I'll just add a few. sarangaia, no, you're not picky. That's a fair assessment. I agree with you. (Just a side note: technically speaking, the MCM/KTW original version of ILU,OTY still rulez. It is almost as perfect as you can make the song). I have to admit that my expectations of LSG-MCM duet were slightly different. I thought they would be more like the first LL earlier this year. More of a blow-away singing contest. This feels more like an improv get-together between two friends. I love the intimacy and casualness of this one. It is lovely in its own way. Both singers harmonize very well. They did not outshine each other. This is where I agree with sarangaia. MCM is good, LSG's performance is very good but not the best that I've seen. Having said that (and angered quite a few fans here), I must backtrack to add more. Sometimes, it's not about the perfect techniques that makes a performance a stand out. Sometimes, the feel of the performance makes an even more lasting impression. This one was just realllly wonderfullll. I heart it despite it not being the best. I had a big grin on my face at the end. For ILU,OTY, LSG's ballad style is more Kim Jong Kook than Kim Tae Woo's R&B (though at the end, he did put on some notes). KTW powerhouse vocal is not easily reproduced and LSG was smart for choosing not to. LSG's rendition packed much less of a punch but it is very sweet. I like MCM's take of "My Woman". He surprised me by actually sang instead of rapped most of it. Really funny how they changed the verses and acted them out in the beginning. "Vacation" was not dramatic. No fuss, just a fun song. The most impressive performance of his single so far. Powerful voice. Seunggi looks so comfortable on stage now. He looked happy. It's as if he has less of a burden to prove his singing ability. He's more in tune with who he is. He knows his singing style and often strays not very far from it.

Ok, am trying not to sound like I'm switching camps; BUT ladies, MCM looked mighty good in LL. I love guys who wear a nicely fitted dress shirt over dark denim. Mong wears it well. He exudes manly confidence in contrast to Seunggi's youthful appeal. Minus the colorful costumes and those glasses, I can totally see the man now. Plus, his hair looked great. For me, it's like ... WHOA, Mong! Is that you? Hahaha. I am still not used to the baggy stone wash jeans. Honestly, I was not in love with LSG outfit. (ivey79, he wore R&R jeans in the episode where KHD dirtied his face with soot, FYI). The casual look could be more polished. Darker wash, more understated shirt - less is more, yah? Apart from that, he did look fantastic in white - he was practically glowing. LSG, I envy your perfect skin. BTW, it must be the 1N2D's magic cuz I'm seeing all these guys in really flattering light. Girls, if I ever start all-out-fan-girling KHD, you must stop me. Promise?

i am a really big fan of teiyeon too. After giyeon and eunhaethey are my third favourite korean couple.
cool about the fan pic, look forward to seeing it.
i have exams tommorrow and i am on soompi.

[sarangaia]

OOH! LSG looks so cute posing with Sang Guen. Looks like Sang Guen's hair/fur is also growing out! Both of them need a trim, haha.

bedifferent You're right, MCM looked good on that episode. I kept quiet about it since i thought it would be odd to be discussing MCM on LSG's thread. Since you brought it up i'm gonna second your opinion! LOL i thought i was the only one going crazy but looks like there's someone here who feels the same way. 1N2D is amazing isn't it? Like you, I'm seeing all the six guys in a really good light. Even LSGuen, whom i initially disliked because i found his brand of humour too slapstick for my liking. These days, I just like all six of them, flawed or not, good looking or not. Oh, and I'm not a all out KHD fangirl, but i DO like him a fair bit. IMHO, the guy's a really good hyung to the others, almost a fatherly figure, especially when he always seems to be helping the other boys improve their images. (bedifferent if you start all out fangirling about KHD, i wont join in and I'll stop you, LOL. promise!) Actually, I don't think i would have turned out liking LSG as much as i do now if he wasn't on 1N2D. The image of him previously as a singer was just too squeaky clean and perfect, really quite unexciting in the sense that he seemed a little too flawless, high flyer in school, powerful vocals and all (I don't mean to offend any fans here, but that was honestly what i thought). Now, his image still remains really wholesome, but the feeling is different, its like he seems more of the average person you see on the streets, with quirks and all, rather than some untouchable high flyer. Its great to see the camaraderie between the 6 guys instead of all that ugly rivalry thats so common in the entertainment scene. I could practically feel the bond between MCM and LSG oozing out from the tiny youtube screen. Beautiful vocals and great technique make a performance enjoyable, but its coupled together with camaraderie and sincerity like this that will make a performance memorable.

Speaking about glowing skin, i read on leeseunggi.ifensi that he won some online poll, something about his skin being thought as the most flawless and perfect in the entertainment circle. Seriously, I was laughing madly when i saw that thread, thinking to myself of course his skin is nice, just look at the kind of attention he pays to his skincare routine (i'm sure you guys know what i mean..) And I'm not sure if you guys already know, but i also stumbled on this post there where they ripped an entry that was on LSG, which was written by one of the PDs in 1N2D on his cyworld. Basically the PD was just praising LSG, saying he's really a good boy, and that he's always really happy when he turns up for filming because he gets to experience through the show what he missed in school because he debuted so early. The PD also mentioned how LSG has really grown through the show, from having his personal items such as toiletry separate from the others to now where he just uses the other guy's stuff. I'll post it here later if any of you show interest in it..

agnuque Its Soompi over homework for me most of the time too Actually I'm not too crazy about the GiYeon connection. To me, its just scripted. But that's just me. If i really have to pick one, its Chae Yeon&Kim Jong Kook. i like Tei but i think KJK and CY is a more interesting combination

Thats it for now. Boy, i wish the videos for this week's 1N2D could come out sooner!! *anticipate*

[dindunz]

[nazznen]

i just finished watched LSG in YDHLL ..
wow .. it's so amazed when i saw him singing "I Love You Oh Thank You"
I remember when I heard this song for the first time .. duet with Kim Tae-Woo from g.o.d. It was .. i means it;s like in heaven. With Tae-Woo voice and mix with MCM fast beat. it's the best ..


.. nevertheless .. LSG has brought this song to other levels. blend with his own style, music and ballad ..
I even love more this song .. more and more .. thanks to LSG for bringing the good memories how much I treasure the song in my life .. MCM/KTW is best with their own style .. and also MCM/LSG with their different style .. both has their own unique and special and I love both. Good job to LSG .. i think KTW also will proud with LSG for doing great job .. *just my thought*





ps: anyone know specific CB for LSG? I've been looking for this.

[sarangaia]

All right, this is for dindunz. All glowing praises for our dear boy here.



I haven't got the time to translate the entire thing here now, so i'll just briefly summarize and hopefully come back to edit this post. The title that the PD gave this entry is "Youth LSG". So basically, the PD is praising our dear wholesome boy. He says that LSG is a person who has a passion for his work and loves what he is doing now, always striving to do the best he can and looks at the world with innocence. He also says that LSG has been used to the life of an artiste from a tender age, and has very little opportunities to spend time with his peers and friends. Because he lacks the opportunity to go out and have fun with his peers, he is always very happy when he turns up for the 1N2D filming sessions, as he gets to make up for what he has missed out in his growing years as a teenager. At first, his toiletries and personal items were kept separate from the others, but now he even uses his hyung's items. The PD also added that LSG is a youth that brings warmth to others, and showed his fondness for LSG with the statement "Hope to continue working with you even till 2020"
Looks like our wholesome boy is loved by many. Argh, I'm so beat today! A mobile job is great cuz you don't have to stare at the boss all day, but it sure is tiring. I haven't even gotten the chance to watch the 1N2D episode even though i've already downloaded it from CB. The file is huge, so I'm guessing its a one and half hour episode this time. From what i see on the 1N2D thread, ratings seem to be good, and it seems this week's ep is really interesting The veoh links are are already up there too. Alright, I shall watch and try to summarize as much as i can tonight. Hopefully later I will have time to post a short summary here tonight. If not it'll be tomorrow night. Will try my best. So sorry guys, really bogged down by work this week. Have a great day!

[eequeezee]

Hi everyone~~~
Gotta make it quick, as I'm heading out the door in ten minutes to catch a train to Pennsylvania for a 2N3D to meet my Summer club volleyball team. I don't know anyone so let's hope there are some nice girls... I'm going to be up and down the Atlantic Coast for the next 8 weekends (not including July 4), so this puts a serious damper on my 1N2D viewing This also means I'm going to have to watch the episodes on youtube I guess the positive here is that I won't have to be a week late with the viewing...

In any case, I saw the MCM fishing episode yesterday - don't think there's much to really translate there. It's all very self-explanatory.

Thanks for the China pics. I cannot wait for the Baekdu episodes!

YDHLL - I loved seeing MCM and LSG together. I loved that LSG sang the Kim Tae Woo part in "I Love You Oh Thank You" but I have to say, it PALED in comparison to Kim Tae Woo. I felt that LSG sang it fine, but didn't have any of the feeling that Kim Tae Woo sings the part with. I wonder why LSG chose to sing it the way he did - so understated...

Gotta run - hi B-unnie, Sarang-unnie, hi o51029, and everyone else here. Byyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeee

[mzsmiley]

I just finished watching this week episode of 1N2D and OMG.. where has LSG been hiding his muscles all this time? I feel like a bad fan for not noticing it.. hahahahah
I was really spazzing out when LSG was flexing his arm muscles but my favorite momment of this week episode has to be when LSG was trying to wake up McMong.. and the two were hugging while McMong was patting LSG back.. aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the brotherly love was too cute.

[ivey79]

Hello all, it's always a late nite reply for me usually. This one's no exception. Again so much info where to begin and respond. Thanks Sarangaia for the new China pics and the translations. The PD just comfirms our boy is the real thing. Sweet, sincere, honest, pasionate, humble, charismatic, loving, cute as a button, loved.....just perfectly imperfect. LOL. But yeah, what was up with the hat and orange shirt. It looks like he even has matching orange shoes? The boy is really getting matchy matchy lately. (Check out the black outfit on the latest ep of 1n2d. ) I think it's funny too that he's getting all this attention for his skin. Yes, the boy has good skin, but I think a lot of other Korean males have beautiful skin too, but cause of 1n2d and he's obvious attention to skin care has gotten him particular praise. Hee hee, I just love how unique this boy is. He's getting famous for the funniest things these days. Oh and speaking of the show, this week's ep was a suprise. Muscles? The boy has muscles? Definitely fanservice there! I was laughing through that whole bit though, especially when LSGuen did that belly roll thing. But when Seung Gi started to flex I was like Half of me wanted to look and continue perving, but the other half was a little weirded out seeing Seung Gi with tight muscles. LOL. Just can't associate the muscle man look with the cute boy face. Hee hee. They were all having so much fun in that little camper. Poor Jiwon. How did he ever sleep through Ho Dong is beyond me.

Bedifferent, thanks for the vidoe links. I LOVED their convo on LL. It's heartwarming to hear how close they are to eachother. Mong saying "Seung Gi IS most populary, really you are". SG was all humble and saying "no I'm not". So cute. And I loved the way they were talking about KimC. That guy is a genuine sweetheart and he shows his care through action. Man of few words and lots of action, definitely. Geez, this cast is just too good. But one thing did make me feel a little sad. It really doesn't seem like Seung Gi has many friends. Especially people his own age. 3 days and no need for recharge? Wow, no wonder he didnt' need a phone for so long. I'm happy this show has sort of filled a gap in his life. It shows on face these days how happy and content he is.

Dindunz, thanks for the CF caps. No one ever looked more convincing eating chicken don't you think? Can't wait to check on the actual CF

Eequeezee, have fun at your camp. You'll have a blast. You're a pretty sporty and outgoing girl aren't ya? I'm just like you, connected to a computer wherever I go. Jeezers, what would I do without internet? It sounds like you'll be traveling quite a bit. Visit often and let us know how things are going and of course any new tidbits or trans of Seung Gi stuff is always welcome.

agnuque, I'm a bit of a fan of the GiYeon couple too. I'm not a big fan of variety show couples in general, just because I think it's all a bit manufactured, but I actually think the GiYeon couple has a bit of sincerity in it. Just because I don't believe Seung Gi could be untrue to himself and fake all that to that extent. I know it's scripted and stuff, but I sensed some real fondness from Seung Gi, nuna crush if you may. And what was real sweet about it all was he never betrayed once. He ALWAYS came back to her in the end and that's why I believed them (please correct me if I'm wrong). I think I need to go on an Xman marathon again. LOL. Maybe this weekend.

Nite all!!

1N2D in China

I just finished watching this week episode of 1N2D and OMG.. where has LSG been hiding his muscles all this time? I feel like a bad fan for not noticing it.. hahahahah
I was really spazzing out when LSG was flexing his arm muscles but my favorite momment of this week episode has to be when LSG was trying to wake up McMong.. and the two were hugging while McMong was patting LSG back.. aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the brotherly love was too cute.

...almost choked on my milk reading that. ahaha. I think someone has been working out for his upcoming drama role. ivey79, i'm glad that you responded to the comment. I've already used up my the fangirl quota this week. **wink** ROFL while watching the part when the guys were showing off their body parts. Wow, KimC. KHD was hilarious also with his calf. LSGeun and his strange-but-fascinating talent of belly dancing. Too odd for words! Love their hug too.

OK, I'm just going throw out a couple of things that I enjoyed from this week 1N2D even without subs. sarangaia, I'm retracting my words about our dashing hero. He does exist after all. He's alive and well, girl. That was just too cool in the beginning with Seunggi showing off his moves. Gosh, that stare and smirk got me excited about Iljimae. hahaha. LSGeun is quite a comedian. The enactment of the Godfather was so silly!

(credit: echo 716/leeseunggi.ifensi.com)

Seunggi-ahhhh, great pass in the soccer game. LOL at how fast they lost it again a few minutes later with goalie KHD. The wresting match was really exciting. I'm happy that they gave KHD a mini-tribute (after all the time they spent promoting the other guys' music). Aww. Also love that MCM and KimC gave their jackets to EJW and LSG be4 they went out on the fishing trip. Speaking of EJW, I was slightly put off by his attitude this week. He sure was a kid. One thing that I noticed about Seunggi is that he seems to always put his whole heart into doing a lot of the things the show throws at him, even the most oddball requests. I love his winning attitude. EJW, on the other hand, has his good and bad moments. This week, he was not quite enthusiastic about the fishing trip or the wrestling challenge. LSG, bless him, really took in stride. You can feel his sincerity: LOL at how serious he was during the wrestling match. Good try, LSG. The best thing about this week's episode: MIA beanie. Yay. I think his hair looked fine without it. For once, I won't complaint about the LSG screentime. I'll admit it, o51029, my shallow self liked all the close-ups.

sarangaia: thank you for the translations. Don't work too hard. Remember to enjoy the summer too. I'll also be busy with relocating in the next few weeks.

eequeezee: am happy that you chose to play ball. Your mom too, I think? I'm sure you'll make some great new friends. Just keep in mind: Bruins, OK?

nazznen, I agree. It is meant to be a different rendition of the ILUOTY. I don't think anyone would attempt to duplicate KTW. Yay, you liked both. Interesting that a few of us here did notice the much softer delivery by LSG. For me, the ballad style was fine - it's what I expect. What threw me off was that it lacked his signature. Uncharacteristically, he did not make the song his. I did not feel that he reworked the song enough to give it the LSG-oomph. Which is an odd thing because most of the time, his remakes are absolutely fabulous. But then, this is the first time that they duet together. From the pictures above, there maybe an encore perf? I don't know if LSG ever truly get credit for the way he revamped a lot of these old songs by remaking them. He's so good at doing remakes that I often overlooked what a great thing it is that he reintroduces the songs to our generation. A lot of people do like his versions over the original ones. It's fantastic that he can bring back good memories for you and also build great new ones for me. The real winners here are the songs I think.

I'll end the post with a few links: wait for them to load.

These were on all the search engines today. Old performance. Ok quality, terrible sound, but maybe of interest to you. Huge concert. Geez, the fans are really close to the stage in these. Nice smile, Seunggi.

wah .. compare to my post and what you all have done ..
i'm just a small, tiny fans who always following him and watching him quitely.
adore him silently and appreciate his works truly.

good jobs all and keep update us with his love ..

*hugs* to everyone here.

[[T.O.P]Sunlight]

I watched 2D1N last episode,too .At 1 A.M ,I was watching and hold back laughter,but when Seung Gi did "kungfu" I laughed so much,my mother got up and scolded me .I love the scene Mongie hugs Seung Gi,too.Oh they're lovely and cute.
mzsmileyI crazy for Seung Gi now .I don't think he'll show his muscle.OMG!I'm crazy now.But I don't like he shows his muscle like that.I think his image-a ballad singer is better but not tiny,weak and instead of youthful,strong,cool.
sarangaia:Thanks for trans. 언니 I wonder what's your ology?I admire you ^^.I have to take an exam so I'm busy,too .hope you have a nice week

요즘 노래방 애창곡 1위 태연이 부른 �만약에�-->Recently,In karaoke room,"If" SnsdTae Yeon is No.1

[문화일보] 2008년 06월 17일(화) 오전 06:57 가 가| 이메일| 프린트 그룹 �소녀시대�가 라이벌 �원더걸스�를 눌렀다. 적어도 노래방에선 그렇다는 얘기다.

노래 반주기 및 음악 콘텐츠 기업인 금영의 집계한 결과 올 상반기 노래방에서 가장 많이 불린 노래는 소녀시대의 태연이 부른 �만약에�인 것으로 조사됐다. 1위를 차지한 �만약에�는 2위에 오른 그룹 V.O.S 박지헌의 �보고 싶은 날엔�보다 무려 16만번 이상 더 선곡됐다.

소녀시대와 V.O.S 박지헌에 이어 3위에는 이미연과 이효리의 뮤직비디오로 관심을 모았던 다비치의 �미워도 사랑하니까�가 차지했다.

I read a news about 2D1N.The vacation to BeakDu mountain will be film in secret and forbid everyone to take a photograph or film anything about program.I think they want to be surprised to viewers .And Bi was a enthusiastic fan of 2D1N.2D1N is the highest rating variety programe,too(with MBC We got married)
Have a nice week,everybody

[sarangaia]

ivey79 Yea, our boy is really imperfectly perfect, isn't he?

Sunlight Bi is a fan of 1N2D??!! As in Mr Rain, Bi? HAHAHA!! I remember saying that I thought LSG and Bi looked alike a couple of weeks back. Somehow the idea that Bi likes 1N2D too tickles me to no end My ology? you mean what i'm studying in uni? I'm a psychology student

Watching them play soccer this week made me really happy! It reminds me of the endless late nights I spent watching the World Cup over the years, and the occasional game or two that I play! OHMYGOSSSHHH, I am falling harder for LSG after watching him play in the soccer game! His footwork is pretty nifty for someone who probably doesn't have too much time to play often, and I was so fangirling away when watching the match. Sure, the footwork, passes and saves (man, just look at KHD, LOL) aren't anywhere near professional standards, but it was such a fun and exciting game to watch nevertheless! I was rooting for the 9 member 1N2D team (duh!), but awww, they lost! bedifferent YES!! I agree!! He looked every bit the dashing hero playing around with that pole. And he's FINALLY shown those muscles he's been hiding under those layers and layers of clothes! (I got curious about them after he mentioned a few times here and there that he hits the gym pretty often. I mean, if you go to the gym, then the muscles must be hiding somewhere right? ) I must admit I was grinning madly when i saw him flex his arm It was quite a sight to behold, his cute boyish face + muscular arms + impish grin. Odd combination, but it works, since he's our dear 허당LSG. A living paradox

Ahh, there's so much on 1N2D this week that I have no idea where to start! Well, a lot of the parts are pretty self explanatory, especially the games, so I guess I'll just skim over that and write about the funny parts. bedifferent haha, I'm trying to work hard and I'm going to play even harder! You're relocating? Where? I love translating the stuff on 1N2D especially since I managed to convert a few friends to become LSG fans with it. The more the merrier! Haha. Looking at all the previous posts, we've discussed LSG's bungee jumping (more accurately his inability to bungee jump) to death, and everyone seems to have a different take on it. Well, i can only say i think our boy was rather affected by the entire incident too, since he was practicing how to bungee jump (LOL!) and his little conversation with the PD in the morning was also quite revealing of what he felt.

At night
So the guys have searched for their base camp, parked their car and got off. Here, the merry making starts. Our dashing hero Iljimae brandishes his weapon, lo and behold, a stick! Nearby, a flute sounds, played by a mysterious LSGuen who hides behind his hat.
LSG: Are you the legendary taewondo master of Korea?
LSGuen: My father died holding a grudge. And blood will spill when I avenge him today.
*prepares for battle* Dashing hero and takewondo 'master' both flaunt their ability to twiddle a pole. With a loud scream "I'm coming!", the battle starts, and i'm expecting an exciting fight. But... taewondo master starts limping towards his enemy! I laughed out LOUD at this scene. LSGuen wins hands down, and the fight remains PG and family friendly. Ahh, such a comedian, LSGuen. The rest of the stuff that happens next speaks for itself. KHD just goes around tricking people with that pole, thoroughly enjoying himself, and eventually breaks the pole between MCM's legs. At first I didn't get why they were laughing so hard, until i saw that broken pole. Goodness gracious! LOL. LSG also shows us how totally random he can be, which i found hilarious! He was so nonchalantly practicing his bungee jumping (off a 'platform' that is hardly more than 15cm tall!! ) amidst all the laughter when MCM was invited to kick that pole by KHD, like as if it was the most natural thing to do next to breathing. LOL!!! KHD and MCM tried to team up and get MCM's manager to fall for the whole kick the pole trap, but the manager says he's seen everything. And then he turns into a flasher for a split second. OMG, it was too funny! I just looove how the 1N2D editors make use of music and sound effects to achieve extremely effective comic timing, like in this case. Its almost become the show's unique feature, in my opinion.

Like bedifferent mentioned, they started filming the 1N2D version of Godfather, where two timid guys face off four tough gangsters. The whole thing was so funny! Now we know gangster MCM's idea of scary is to hold up an iron plank to whack someone, only to drop it behind him because its too heavy. HAHA!! So KHD, EJW and MCM were like extorting KimC and LSG, and the show is just about to get exciting when Godfather LSGuen turns into grandfather and yells "HEY!! I'm going back first! Its too cold." LOL!! And so the whole mafia story was ended because grandfather LSGuen was too weak to withstand the cold. Funny!

Dinner
As usual the 6 guys are negotiating with the PD for food. The terms that the PD offers do not please KHD, so he produces his mafia sidekick, EJW to speed up the negotiations.
EJW: THERE ARE 6 PEOPLE HERE NOW OK! You should give us 3 packs of ramyeon, 3 packs! The gray mullet (a type of fish) still hasn't been able to be digested you know? (he says this in reference to the fish that MCM caught previously)
Haha! The PD eventually gives in to EJW's mafia power. They are given 3 packs of ramyeon, rice and of course, kimchi. They then start discussing about where to sleep. The PD tells them that they will have to sleep in the camping car, or just outdoors anywhere they deem fit. KHD asks the PD "Oh, so there are tents (prepared for them in the case they decide to sleep outdoors) right?" The PD said incredulously, "Its summer, what tents (are you talking about) man?!" EJW protests and says "I have a half coat on now!". Its quite true, even though its summer, it still looks pretty cold there, and sleeping without a tent is surely not too enticing for them. Goodness, i can foresee the 6 guys are going to have to go through a lot of in the weeks to come, considering the PD's attitude Anyway, the 6 guys then happily start cooking their long awaited dinner. In the process, we find out that LSGuen and EJW are really still kids at heart, and they start play acting and role playing.
LSGuen: Boss! Boss! Why isn't my hamburger here yet?
EJW: Hamburger?
LSGuen: I ordered it some time ago! Why isn't it here yet!
EJW: Please wait a moment, wait a moment. (produces a frying pan 'hamburger') That will be 2000Won.
LSGuen hands him wooden chopsticks 'money'.
LSGuen: Boss! Why didn't you give me the hamburgers?
EJW: I gave it to you! Look you even paid me! (brandishes his 'money')
LSGuen: What? When did i give you money?
This time LSGuen gives him tissue money and asks for the hamburger again. EJW asks him to wait a moment, and comes back telling LSGuen that he's run of hamburgers and replaces it with tissue 'toast' in a cup. LSGuen accepts it, and asks EJW to serve him some sweets. And EJW gives him some tissue 'sweets' in a cup and throws in some instant coffee as a service (a freebie). LSGuen starts counting out his tissue money again and asks for cola this time. LSG walks over and tries to stop LSGuen from playing with the tissue paper and LSGuen chides him, saying "What tissue paper? This is money! Ahh, this person. Why do you think money is tissue?" ahh, what a childish duo, LSGuen and EJW!! The funniest part of this entire play acting was at the end where LSGuen asks EJW for corn (maize) tea, and EJW hands him a BIG bottle of corn OIL. Oh my goodness! I was just staring open mouthed and laughing at their childish but oh-so-funny antics.

Bedtime
Fast forward, and they're done eating dinner and are preparing to sleep. LSG trying to get on the bed but almost falling was endearing. Our boy is really a very adorable and cute klutz. LSG and LSGuen exchange clothes here, and boy, LSG is really a clothes hanger. Almost all clothes look good or at least halfway decent on him. Anyway, they prepare to sleep, and here LSGuen gives an UTTERLY HILARIOUS news broadcasting and goes on to give a commentary on LSG-EJW-KimC's bungee jump. I wish there was some way I could translate his whole commentary to give full credit to the humour in his speech, but its really impossible to do so. Basically he's speaking in korean, but with a very heavy accent such that it sounds foreign. The captions say that he's trying to mimic a mainland chinese accent, but the actual accent he spoke with is much closer to the chinese dialect Cantonese (by the way, cantonese is widely spoken in Hong kong). It was really really really amazing that he managed to make it sound so close to the dialect while still speaking korean, and its really funny! I grew up speaking and listening to a couple of chinese dialects including Cantonese, and I can tell you, LSGuen really managed to get the accent down very well. He then went on to mimic a Japanese accent and even counted in Japanese. My goodness, this guy is really really funny!! No wonder the other 5 guys were laughing their heads off.

Alright, I really gotta sleep. Super tired. Be back tomorrow night for the exchange between LSG and the PD!
*just checked out the chicken CF. Cute dimple!!

Wow, thanks Sarangaia for the trans. Love your motto, work hard play harder. You go girl! Reading all of your comments about his ep is making me want to watch it again so I can look for all the parts that were translated. I loved this ep too particularly cause of all the interactions with people outside teh group. The football game was awesome. I too was impressed with Seung Gi's skills. After watching all those Xman's I came to a conclusion that he wasnt' really much of an athlete nor is he really competetive in that area, but he blew me away with those fast steps. The boy just keeps on surprising us with stuff. He's a deep well, this one Bedifferent, I'm glad you posted those gifs. you dont' know how many times I played back that sword fighting seen. More skills!!! I see Iljimae! LoL. yeah that whole jumping off the plank thing...poor boy is traumatized for life. He will neer live it down. hee hee. The sleeping scene was a crap up too. Always my favorites part of the show. so when they were changing clothes and the camera panned out to give them some private changing time, why were they all 'ooohing and wowwing"? Seeing some muscles? that whole bit was a crackup. And yes, Seung Gi looks good in practically everything, given it matches of course. He's skinny and 6 foot tall for goodness sakes AND he has small face, which for some reason is a sign of beauty in Korea. Still dont' get why, but if thats the case our boy fits the bill I think. Ever notice how little his head is compared to others? Sorry, odd remark I know. If I may, Sarangaia, what was the convo with the PD in the morning? I know he feels apologetic about the whole bunjee thing. He does have a great attitude about everything and tries so hard to do his best. When he fails to follow through on something I'm sure it hurt. And bedifferent, I agree with you about EJW. He's sort of the black sheep of the family. Remember those old eps where he would sleep through everything regardless what the others were doing? At first I thought it a bit unprofessional and odd to do that, especially when the others are trying so hard to film and play games for the show. But I just got used to seeing it and it became a EJW thing. he must have one hecka hard schedule to be this tired all the time.

Sunlight, thanks for the list of songs. I can see why Seung Gi songs are so popular. good ballads and he makes them sound so EASY to sing. And yeah, I don't think he gets enough credit for remakes too. I think those are the hardest songs to pull off and he's so good at it he has TWO albums full!
some day he'll get the recognition he deserves.

Nazznen, don't feel like your not contributing!! Just your comments and thoughts are enough. That's how I felt at first too cause I never hae anything new to post or add, but hey.. you know what? this is a forum for discussion. It keeps this place alive. So feel free to say hello and just share your Seung Gi thoughts anytime

[o51029]

Sarangaia, thanks as always for the translation/summary of this episode. And for explaining LSGeun's "broadcast" because I didn't understand it (or at least the first half of it) and didn't get why everyone was laughing so hysterically. Though I was still laughing for some reason... I couldn't help it I did think the part where LSGeun was narrating the bungee jump was funny as all heck when I watched it.
For LSG: 1, 2, 3, 4 Aiyah~~
EJW: 1, 2, 3, 4 Ahh~~
KimC: 1-shh wahh!

Methinks LSG has a good body I giggled when LSGeun and LSG were switching clothes and the video went to the outside camera view while we hear everyone say "wahhhh~~~" in amazement. I always figured he would have a good body, if nothing else than because of image and he seemed very fit since his debut.
Hmm, I thought Soccer was in LSG's bio as a hobby but I guess he doesn't have much time for that anymore (aww and I guess no friends to play it with). I remember he scored most of the time when he played it in Xman except for that first shot.

Thanks everyone else too for the pics and translations! Hi sarangaia, bedifferent, ivey79, Sunlight, dindunz (I know you drop by sometimes), and everyone else. Welcome nazznen!

Guys, I think our 1N2D guys are wearing North Face jackets (the Summit Series). I have a jacket in the same line. LOL. I think this line is available in Asia - or at least in Nepal/India/Mt Everest area. They look really goood. Love the color. Seunggi rocks the blue one. Hmm, he's so tall!

sarangaia: you're stupendously awesome! TY for the translation/summary. OMG, these guys are just too funnnnyyy. I'm going to rewatch the episode now. Yes, I'm moving to Northern California for school. Can't wait to be in the City.
[T.O.P]: thank you for continuing to update us. I did see an article on daum about Bi and 1N2D. So is that what it says? Hmmm. Could you, in anyway, possibly give us the gist on the above 1N2D articles? Thank you so much in advance. **shameless am I?**

Be back later if I have other stuffs to report. In the meantime, people, post away, OK?
