(Summary of today's meal) (DOYOUNG and HAECHAN's MUK 2 U) ('Eolttangja', Jayang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul) (Today's diligent guests arrive at the restaurant before the MCs. . .
) (Arriving 10 minutes early and are making the sauce. . .
) It's my recipe Simple and delicious recipe (Skillful hand movements like a pro) Good job (These pros know what to do even with the MCs) It feels like we're the hosts of this show (DOYOUNG and HAECHAN arrive in time) It's going to be good I'm excited DOYOUNG HAECHAN's (Argh. . .
) MUK 2 U (Feeling embarrassed) Since they are right there. . .
Please Be professional Sorry DOYOUNG And HAECHAN's MUK 2 U Please What's the matter with you today? - What? - Try to sound more gentle It's because I caught a cold and sound nasal So, do it again and make it smooth Smooth, okay?
DOYOUNG And HAECHAN's MUK 2 U Today, we're at a a hotpot restaurant called 'Eolttangja' Today's guests recommended this place I have been there before and so has HAECHAN Right NCT loves hot pot We vouch for this restaurant Yes, if you want hot pot. . .
that has strong flavors, you should come here Right (Since they are regulars here) Maybe the guests know better? Let's talk with the guests about it NCT DREAM is back with 'Smoothie' Hello You made me wait so long - I made all the sauces - I'm a fan I'm a fan Are you honored? (Nourishing tonic exclusively for NCTzen) (NCT DREAM has made a refreshing glass of 'Smoothie') (Give me 7 glasses of DREAM Smoothie with all kinds of sexiness) (NCT DREAM 'DREAM( )SCAPE') (All 7 members participated in all stages of the production, an album for providing empathy and comfort to the youth) Well, first of all.
. . To MUK-zen MUK-zen?
(Nickname made on the spot) Please introduce yourself to MUK-zen Hello, MUK-zen (Professional entertainer) I am RENJUN from NCT DREAM Hello, MUK-zen, I'm CHENLE (Welcome) So smooth You guys are smooth guests We should eat as we talk (Making the sauce first before the soup arrives) Shall we make the sauce? Let's make the sauce first They don't have the peanut sauce here They never had it I make it a bit bland Excuse me (Adding cilantro, which HAECHAN hates) Excuse me Are you still like that? Please make it (again) I'll make it good I don't want the cilantro We must add green onions for sure - Green onions are a must - These are peanuts (Green onions, peanuts, special sauce powder, garlic) This one is the key And then garlic Oyster sauce The oyster sauce can be a bit salty Add sesame oil Sesame oil Last two spoons Then that's it (Shopping for skewers after making the sauce) Ham Imitation crab I always add Spam and imitation crab I eat hotpot to eat this Shahua (shrimp meat balls) (Cucumber hater facing its enemy) Cucumber rolls (Shaking.
. . ) I am a bok choy lover Morning glory looks good - DOYOUNG - Yes?
Can I put cucumber rolls in hot pot? Sorry Okay Get me a separate soup for me then When I eat hotpot, I mostly get vegetables I try to eat healthy when I eat hot pot I need to eat a lot of vegetables If you eat these things in the middle, you can eat it for even longer (Choosing strategically for the flow of eating the meal) (Done choosing skewers) That's it CHENLE should sit too, hand these out Thank you Aw, nice (Red soup + Mushroom soup) (Spicy + mild combo, skewers charged separately) - The pot got nicer - The pot got nicer Tell us about the album 'DREAM( )SCAPE' There are various songs. .
. The title song 'Smoothie' it's about grinding up all the negative things. .
. that you hear I could do it, but thank you There must be things that bother you, right? Yes It sends a message saying that we should overcome them Put it here It's a bit realistic and a bit.
. . We wanted to show a bit of the dark side as well when we produced this album (Starting by putting the skewers in) Now, I'm putting it in the hotpot What makes it special is Like HAECHAN said earlier, they come in skewers So, it's more hygienic in a way because you can dip it and put it right out We ordered the red and white (mushroom soup) soup which are what we always order Are you just putting them all in?
(All in) Just let them boil - Boil them and eat them at once - We ordered red and white soup Here is a tip, these things that float You can take them out of the skewer - I'll be easy to find them anyway - Things that may float It's a great tip Then, when you eat hot pot. . .
You may get a stomachache and have to go to the bathroom often the next day There's something you can do to prevent that from happening What is it? That'll be so helpful to know Don't add vegetables in the red soup Vegetables themselves will absorb oil That's just how they are So you're eating oil Put the meat in the red soup and vegetables in the white soup I'll just eat have a stomachache Sure then If you will suffer by choice, then that's fine That must've been why I didn't get a stomachache after eating hot pot - I eat the white soup mostly. .
. - Do you only eat the white soup? I've never had water poop from eating hot pot Thank you for the advanced word (What a dignified word choice) Also, most of the meat here is seasoned a bit Right, so when you boil it, when you cook it, it's still good without the sauce But the sauce has that special mala flavor That's why I like to dip it in the sauce Aha Aha I feel nervous when I come here.
. . Why?
Why? (Worried about having a stomach) I'm worried about tomorrow Really? Are the spices that strong?
It is at least for me. . .
Well, anyway, back to the album. . .
Back to the album, okay (Laughing) But our trailer itself. . .
RENJUN seems to think we're ridiculous I've never been on such a hectic show It's not that hectic You know for most shows. . .
people who edit it do most of the work (Firm trust? ) Right, we do all sorts of things. .
. Then, back to the main topic Let's talk about '( )SCAPE Film' ( )SCAPE Film? Yes Let's talk more about ( )SCAPE There are many scenes where we get brainwashed That's right What did that try to convey?
I know RENJUN contributed a lot to that idea That's right, I strongly asked them to keep that part The reason I first suggested it was no matter what job you have in this society there must be difficulties that come with it That's right "You shouldn't do this" or "You shouldn't do that" I'm sure those things give people a hard time But it's just like saying whatever and escaping? But while watching, this was the first thing that came to mind Did you watch the movie 'The Witch'? I watched it It's similar to that It was like well-trained talented people escaping Also, JENO shows his powers (JENO like a sculpture) But the key point of that You focused too much on his muscles I focused only on his back muscles too There's a story to it If you look closely, there are scenes where they do a surgery Wing marks!
They are not wing marks They weren't? I thought he was an angel so he had to take his wings off (Story narrator, RENJUN) He got the surgery to become a better shooter Aha His own body There is a back story that you may not know (Story about JENO from the gym) JENO and I go to the same gym Do you work out? (Surprising fact?
) Yes You are both with wide shoulders, (so you don't have to work out that much) We go to the same gym My trainer told me that he had to take off his shirt for the trailer He said JENO came even the day before to work out So, I asked JENO I heard you will take your shirt off this time And he looked really cool JENO works hard He's born with good muscles His muscles look very nice Also, he eats healthy That's right He doesn't eat a lot of salt (JENO) It's hard to believe How can he do that? - It's good - It's good (Forgot to talk about the food) It is really good - The white soup is different - White soup is really delicious The white soup is so good, I'm shocked It's my first time trying the white soup here Me too - Really? - Really?
Did you only eat red soup? (Actually only had the red soup) Right This is the main part Enoki mushroom meat is so good Right, that's really good I like this too The one stuck on asparagus. .
. Garlic stem? Garlic stem I like that too This is what happens as you eat here They can poke your eyes when you try to eat So, have good manners and make sure to put them in the center (RENJUN has so many good tips) RENJUN is the polite type Do you know me?
Sorry, we just met today (Anyway) The food here is really good It's just good Also, the music video has been getting good reviews Right Many NCTzen has been showing love Please tell us about your roles - CHENLE, you were communicating with a horse - I am a horse rider Horse rider There was a horse this big on set (That horse) It was even in a drama Wow It's not CGI I heard about this, JENO (Save me) did boxing with a strawberry - Boxing with a strawberry? - Or was it MARK? Someone was fighting a strawberry.
. . JENO is a boxer There's that I did that I had to pour black liquid in a container on the camera like this I practiced that so many times because I had only two chances for that scene But I cleared it in one go (RENJUN was great again) You just bragged - He did - I did (RENJUN wanted to show off) Good job I loved the choreography It doesn't look easy What was cool about the choreography was that it's different for all 3 verses - They are different for all choruses - For all choruses?
Crazy It's not something you can do unless you have a lot of passion Right How are they different? Are the compositions a lot different? The compositions, and the choreography itself was different too There were many times I just wanted to go home while having a choreography meeting I liked it at first But after giving many suggestions, I got tired So, I just kept quiet later - You know why?
- Let's do what you decide (For everything we suggested) We had to try it out Also, we were like "What was that? " Then, we tried it again (tears) (Practicing like a newbie) Then, we had to do it again That didn't matter to me That did matter to me But DREAM is known as the team who talks a lot as a group Yes The fans must be curious about this Who usually asks for a group meeting? MARK The leader MARK, but JISUNG does quite often too JAEMIN too.
. . (Story about DREAM being addicted to group meetings) We were on a US tour We talked as a group in each city (Never-ending new concept meeting) Again and again It was diverse It was about what to do about the new album That was something we've talked about We also talked about the mindset we'll have as a group while promoting the album And this is the album you came up with after having after many group meetings like that, right?
Right This album is a bit. . .
We started talking about it since December of last year The very final meeting It must've felt like the very last meetings Right (MARK comes up with many wise sayings) Last year. . .
MARK left a wise saying We went into a meeting with the CEO Then, MARK said Next year will be our prime time After they heard him say that, everyone at Neo Center started working with that mindset and made us feel like we must make this our best year so their hard work won't be wasted That's awesome We were talking about the trailer earlier Your acting was great (You two? ) You took that pill again. .
. RENJUN cried a lot Right Not two, three The three of you showed great acting Are there any stories (related to acting) that you want to share? For me, I thought.
. . the smile that CHENLE made while spitting out the pill must've been quite hard to express I really fell in love with CHENLE He told me that when he saw the edited version RENJUN, you were so good at the crying scene So good I can never do crying scenes because I don't usually cry Does that mean RENJUN is good at it since he cries a lot?
He did look really sad Even if he just drops a tear, he can look really sad - (Acting) I think you're good - The director said to act out all the emotions (during the shoot) whether it's laughing, crying, screaming, or getting angry I was acting, but everyone around me didn't feel the same emotion as I did It can make you feel a bit embarrassed I pushed all of that aside and thought I was in my own space That's cool It's really cool That's true (Q. CHENLE sent Bubble due to a misunderstanding among NCTzen? ) CHENLE's Bubble?
What does that mean? On the radio SWALLOW FIGHT (In the story) There is someone who gives orders (CHENLE's unfair(? ) Bubble incident) (NCTzen thought it was CHENLE's voice and CHENLE sent a Bubble message saying it wasn't) (JISUNG being controlled by CHENLE?
) The fans saw that and thought it was me They thought I was. . .
the villain behind it (Interpretations are fun) I could've just let them interpret it But I felt wronged because it wasn't me So, I posted it on Bubble and Weverse that it wasn't me (Why would I lie about it? ) But they didn't believe me (The text expresses his disappointment. .
. ) (Chuckling) But it is quite true that there were especially many elements that made fans to speculate about I agree From our teaser photo to the video So I personally. .
. never mentioned anything about it on purpose because I thought it'd be fun to let the fans make guesses Right So, JISUNG also yelled at me at the group chat for saying that on Bubble He told me to let the fans guess But I said I knew that but I felt too wronged to let it go JISUNG really is. .
. sincere about letting DREAM have that particular concept Right We also go along with what he says But what he says is right Is there a part you think you really crushed? We have a song called 'Breathing' I sang the first part.
. . I focused the hardest while recording it I just had to nail that part (His part that he wanted to nail (?
)) Is that your favorite? Actually, the song 'BOX' is really refreshing and good - BOX? - Yes My favorite songs are 'Breathing' and 'BOX' It's the same as RENJUN They're the same But I love 'icanfeelanything' too But for 'Breathing'.
. . The other four, besides us, participated in writing the lyrics.
. . For 'Breathing', I see Really?
The rap lyrics For what I did well. . .
I think I nailed everything pretty evenly The melody of the chorus part of 'BOX' is so my style. . .
- I like the chorus part of 'BOX' too - 'BOX' is satisfying It's catchy But what's interesting is that 'BOX' isn't the coupling song We debated so hard about that too We had a big debate We debated between 'BOX' and 'UNKNOWN' MARK said 'BOX' wasn't that different from 'Smoothie' for the concept Since they are similar, he said he wanted us to show what's different He said we had to do something catchy on music shows (HAECHAN) I thought it was more advantageous to do something with good performance aspects - But you were both right - And above all, we had a battle and I lost Did 'UNKNOWN' win then? 'UNKNOWN' won But after deciding on 'UNKNOWN', he suddenly asked HAECHAN, should we try icantfeelanything? (MARK fell deep in thought again after persuading everyone) That was after everything got decided He didn't even mention that before So I said (Persuading MARK again) No, let's just UNKNOWN (Skewer refill time) Hey, bring more of that Is this quail egg?
- How is this a quail egg? - Then what is it? (They are confused by the mislabeled ingredient) Then, what is it?
I don't know It looks good On whose nose will you put that sausage? Four. .
. One each? Do it with him (=HAECHAN) If he says he doesn't want to go to the country side, just call me (Contract concluded) Should we film a new opening now?
Sure What do you want to be? You come up with something (HAECHAN has no idea what's happening) But you're already on that JISUNG and CHENLE's. .
. CHENLE and JISUNG CHENLE and JISUNG's This and That I can do multiple shows Then CHENLE and JISUNG's This and That and DOYOUNG and HAECHAN's MUK 2 U should collaborate We're the longest running show (Proud) DOYOUNG and JISUNG's This and That HAECHAN and CHENLE We could do something like that or we could do DOYOUNG and CHENLE DOYOUNG and JISUNG's. .
. (Let's discuss more about it later) CHENLE and JISUNG's This and That RENJUN, when you record the songs, is there something you pay special attention to? I know that you take the longest to record Right.
. . He spends almost the entire day alone But I heard that DOYOUNG takes a long time too It's because I feel a certain way about how I want it to be (and that makes it longer) But even when you don't get the sound you want, there may be other ways in which your voice may suit the song (Added - Guo Bao Rou) That looks good RENJUN About RENJUN.
. . I say good things about RENJUN to MARK and others from time to time I hear you sing and there are parts that made me say, 'RENJUN sang this part so well' (Touched) There were times I tried to record the way you'd done But you need to step out of that That way, you can grow - I know the kind of voice you like - That's so true But if it gets long (Try to step out) (Fried rice / Savory and soft rice) Thank you Did you order fried rice too?
Order it now so we can eat it CHENLE, among the parts you recorded. . .
Thank you What's your favorite part? 'I nailed that. .
. ' There were many parts that made me feel that way (CHENLE nailed many parts) I thought he'd say there were no parts like that But I feel the happiest while recording Wow It's because let's say singing a certain song made me become a better singer, then I'd really like that song so much Right, I can see that No wonder. .
. CHENLE with thousand stars? (Laughing) - Right?
- Yes Music star That's so old. . .
What were you? Mood maker Hello, this is HAECHAN, the mood maker Pure boy (Pure boy, RENJUN) That's right RENJUN is a pure boy He really was a pure boy I love the fried rice Don't steal mine (He steals his fried rice) Didn't you put that here for me to eat? No You got it on you, CHENLE (Stealing the fried rice as well) Excuse me I didn't get it on me Why did you eat my fried rice?
- CHENLE - I cut the chicken for you (I love you, CHENLE) CHENLE I've known you guys since you were little Oh, my (HAECHAN looking resentful) HAECHAN looks so displeased It didn't stab you or anything, right? (Anyway) I've known you since you were little I think CHENLE has changed the most That's true Right? In terms of appearance Appearance?
He was such a baby I was M Countdown's MC when you promoted Chewing Gum Do you remember? I don't Chewing Gum's first show (Memories have been erased. .
. ) I was M Countdown's MC during the first show It was like a special MC for just two months Right, I think I remember you were the special MC At that time, CHENLE was a baby It was to the point of being shocking Right Please choose one of your favorite dishes Among Korean food So many Do you like Kimchi stew? First of all, I really like Kimchi stew I really like pork bone stew I like army stew, what else?
- You must like stews - He likes stews I really like stew too You like pork neck Yes, pork neck (He loves meat + stew) I just like the meat itself I actually eat a lot of Korean food What about you, RENJUN? Spicy chicken feet Intestines You like bar snacks You'd need a drink to go with them Blood sausage Blood sausage I love blood sausages I love them so much (Gulping) I know a good restaurant for that Let's go together sometime The soup and rice you get in Geoje Island is really good Mixed soup and rice Do you know it? (CHENLE likes stoups) Mixed soup and rice I know what it is - It's really delicious - The mixed soup and rice is good I had it in a market in Geoje Island, and it was really good What's Korean food they probably haven't had?
- Probably none - Skate Gujeolpan(*Nine ingredient dish) Gwamegi(*herring) Gwamegi is the dried fish that's been pickled It's similar to dried pollack - The texture is like jelly - I get it I don't like Gwamegi that much either But it's good when it's in season The dishes I don't like are Samgyetang(*chicken soup) or Seolleongtang(*ox bone soup) Huh? I don't like them - White soup? - Really?
(Most people like it) Why don't you like Samgyetang and Seolleongtang? It tastes like nothing You must not like the kinds that need to be seasoned with salt and pepper - I can see that - Also, I don't like Samgyetang for eating chicken He likes heavily seasoned food (But for me) after I started to cook more, I've begun to season my food less Right, that happens if you cook I want to bring out the flavor of the ingredients The natural flavor That's right, that's what I want You should go on CHENLE and JISUNG's This and That as a guest - Sure - Will I be welcomed? Oh, of course JUNGWOO and TAEIL also came out - Really?
- Yes Really? JUNGWOO and TAEIL also came - When will I come? - Also, (They had a nice foot bath) TAEIL had a foot bath at CHENLE and JISUNG's You should cook for me when I go Sure (Telling them the intent of the show after finishing eating) So the reason The reason we came together was that we show good reactions after eating something good I don't think I've heard it until now So, for example, it's like this He and I eat a lot even if it's a meal alone - Me too - Even if we order sashimi, we'll prepare some spicy stew on the side (RENJUN trying to understand these people) Yes Set up all the lettuce wrap I even do this at times (Clap.
. . clap.
. . clap) Alone at home?
Alone at home I don't stand up like that I just go, wow Let's say I got food delivered (Getting impressed and clicking like) I'd say what and press like right away Oh, come on. . .
(His chopsticks are going crazy) (They are still close friends) Rumors of being on bad terms (Any determinations for promoting the new album? ) Tell us about how you feel Let's hear from you What is it? Do you feel hot?
I feel full (Too full to sit) I should stand up for a bit So cute So first, we began with Smoothie and will lead up to the concert There will be many surprises after that We'll be working very hard, so you should just follow us and stay happy as always The members and everyone who likes us will be very busy this year and have a lot to do, so I just hope everyone to stay healthy together and have a good time This year is NCT DREAM's prime time - He sounds just like MARK - We'll make sure to prove it's true, so please give us lots of support DREAM( )SCAPE Please listen to it again now I hope you watch the music video too I'm looking forward to it MUK Check (A slogan) I guess it's new You know Fact Check, right? So, MUK Check is to choose your favorite menu I definitely have one This pine mushroom Enoki mushroom I just love its texture Beef rolled enoki mushroom Rolls And this sauce This sauce is really amazing What about you, CHENLE? Actually, I've been here often But honestly, I don't like Guo Bao Rou that much But this one was really good Guo Bao Rou Guo Bao Rou I will choose this too The same one I chose That's really good That's the best one I eat a lot of tofu skin when I eat hot pot The tofu skin is good too So, I eat a lot of tofu skin I don't know what to call this It's that thing Not tofu skin, this thing next to it It's the intestines, the white one at the top It's omasum.
. . Omasum I meant omasum (It was so good he mistook it as tofu skin) I'm sorry, I talked about it after talking about tofu skins You went to look for fried tofu skin and found omasum?
It's because. . .
I'd never tried omasum with the white soup before It's so good Omasum is good I love intestines (Time to write up MUK Restaurant List) DOYOUNG's pick is omasum Omasum And what else, was it Alt and Tap (Looking for hints)? Command Enter Command, where is Command? Command Enter HAECHAN and RENJUN's pick HAECHAN.
