He sent us his concern
because he's frustrated by someone
who just won't give up.
"Promise Me That You'll Give Up."
Hello. I'm a man in my 20s with many concerns.
I have one younger sister.
She always heard this as she grew up.
"She's so tall.
She'd be perfect as a model."
So she grew up dreaming of becoming a model.
That's when my concern began.
"Hey! Until when are you going to lounge around?"
"Mind your own business!
I'm going to become a model."
"Stop eating! You said you want to be a model!"
"Mind your own business!"
My sister who dreams of becoming a model has been
eating and drinking at night for 5 years now.
That's a long time.
Then one day... "Dongju! I got a job!
I'm going to earn money, take classes,
and become a model."
I thought she was finally coming around, but...
"I don't want to go to work.
I'm not going! I quit!"
She repeatedly quit her job within days.
I think she has quit more than 25 jobs so far.
My sister dreams without working hard.
Please help me get through to her.
An older brother who's concerned about
his younger sister sent us this concern.
Please come on out.
(Kim Dongju)
(The brother is tall, too)
(Nice to meet you)
If people told your sister that often
- she must be tall. / - Yes.
- How tall is she? / - 174-175cm?
174cm? She's tall enough to be a model.
How does she spend her days that
you sent us your concern?
Those who are trying to become models
work hard to do so.
- They go to auditions, too. / - Yes.
My sister doesn't do any of that.
She eats midnight snacks.
She doesn't watch her weight.
She drinks a lot, too.
She can drink 3 bottles by herself.
Then one day...
I live in Hongseong and she lives in Cheonan.
I went to her place and
empty soju bottles greeted me instead of her.
I thought she sold empty bottles to earn money,
but she proudly said that she drank them.
Wow.
So you don't live together?
After she graduated school
she moved to Cheonan to take modeling classes
to become a model.
She got a job, but...
The longest she has worked is 3 months.
She usually quit after 3 weeks.
(That's a concern)
In your opinion, does your sister
have a chance to become a model?
Well, I don't know.
(He blurts out how he feels)
She took a profile picture at school.
She looks great in the picture.
She looks like a model.
She has that charisma?
She looked like Jang Yoonju to me.
(Really?)
Let's meet his sister to talk to her.
Hello.
Hello.
Please stand up for us.
Let's see how tall you are.
- She's tall. / - Please turn around.
Pose like a model for us.
Pose.
(She poses like a model?)
She's too shy.
(Confident at first, but shy later)
Thank you.
She's really tall.
Do you understand your brother's concern?
Yes, I'd be frustrated...
(What?)
I'd be frustrated, too.
Then why do you live that way?
You're not desperate to succeed, right?
I'm desperate.
Then why haven't you put in any effort for 5 years?
I am not all that confident.
I don't have a pretty face.
As you already know,
models' faces aren't normally beautiful.
It's all about their bodies and sense of fashion.
That's what matters most.
Your brother said you just lounge around all day.
Are you thinking of modeling lying down?
Does such thing even exist?
Why do you do that?
He said you don't try hard.
You should go to auditions or
look for some opportunities.
But you're not doing that.
I think... How should I put this?
I was never confident enough.
That's just an excuse.
You should work hard to become confident.
How old are you?
- I'm 27 years old. / - 27.
You should do something soon.
Why aren't you confident in yourself?
I think I just closed myself up from the world.
You think that you can't make it?
Yes, that's what I think.
But then I want to try it, too.
I want to try it. I don't want to give up.
But I'm not confident...
You just give up thinking that you can't make it.
But you want to keep trying.
That just repeats over and over again?
So you've never challenged yourself?
Never.
Why do you want to become a model?
When I was in college
I was on stage for my graduation project.
People looked at me as I walked down the runway.
It felt great to be on stage.
He said that you drink every day.
Why do you drink so much?
I think so lowly of myself.
You're frustrated.
I feel comforted when I drink.
That's why I end up drinking.
I also enjoy drinking with friends, too.
I can talk to them and have fun.
(Sigh...)
Your brother said that you quit your jobs
too quickly and too soon.
Many people work in factories.
Having a tough job is fine, but I just can't
stand having conflicts with other people.
I couldn't get used to it, so I quit quickly.
So you quit and got another job, right?
You just keep doing the same thing?
Yes. I guess I didn't have enough will to work.
I guess so.
Your brother said that you like to sleep in
and that's why you can't go to work.
Sometimes I intensely don't feel like doing anything.
(She shouts for freedom to the world)
"I don't want to do anything!" Like that?
Yes. I really don't want to do anything.
I admit that I spend too long not doing anything
and I regret that now.
You just want to have fun, right?
You like being with your friends?
- Well, yes. / - Having fun is fine.
What was the shortest time you had a job?
- A quarter of a day. / - What?
That's not a job. You just stopped by.
I went to eat.
You quit after working a few hours? Wow.
That's not being considerate of others.
You're being irresponsible.
You went and asked to work there then just left.
Where does that confidence come from?
(Grow up, sis...)
I think we need to hear what you have
planned exactly for your future.
Do you have one?
I think your brother wants to hear that.
As like my final try,
I'm going to work for a year and
look for a cheap place in Seoul and
take modeling classes and as I work part-time
I want to learn how to become a model.
How much do you plan to save up?
About $10,000.
How much do you have so far?
Right now?
About $2,000.
When will you save up $10,000?
You're not doing anything.
I have a job right now.
You're planning to work there for a while then?
Yes.
She wants you to give her a year.
She's been doing that for 4-5 years.
- That "just one year"? / - Yes.
She has said this before?
Yes.
I'd trust her if she changes her behavior,
but she still goes to nightclubs often.
My mom's friend must've seen her at a club.
She told our mom when she got home.
She saw my sister at a nightclub
with her hair in a mess and
taking over the nightclub stage.
Wait. Your mom's friend saw her?
What was your mom's friend doing at a nightclub?
I don't know.
I'd understand if her daughter went.
What clubs allow people of different age groups?
Are people of different ages there?
We're very curious.
The age groups change after midnight.
What do you mean?
Who are at the club before midnight?
Older men and women.
And after midnight?
Young people.
So did your mom's friend not leave?
Or did you go in early?
She didn't go home on time.
(Mom's friend working overtime)
Oh, that feels good.
(Mother... Please go home on time)
- She broke the rules. / - It's her fault.
It was her fault.
Does she ask you for money?
Even now?
It's okay to ask me for money, but
the problem is that she's very immature.
One day, she asked me for 50 cents.
Then she asked me for a dollar.
She would ask me for a little change...
Why 50 cents and a dollar?
I don't know. She asked me for little change
and now she asks me for lots of money
so that she could go see a doctor.
She asks me for $150 to buy clothes.
She's asking for more now?
She asks me for $200 to go see a doctor.
It's getting bigger and it's tough for me.
How much do you give her each month?
I sometimes give her $800 a month.
Or sometimes it could be as little as $100.
- Max $800? / - When it's a lot.
She has a nice brother.
What was the 50 cents and $1 for?
Did you only have $9.50 and needed to round up?
What?
I was just speaking in a roundabout way.
You actually wanted $50, but
he only gave you 50 cents?
(The brother was at fault)
You said 50 and he sent you 50 cents?
Their acquaintances are here.
Let's talk to them. Hello.
I'm Dongju's friend.
Dongju asked me if his sister can
work where I work,
so I got Hyejeong a job.
The company provided her
a ride to work and a place to stay.
When she overslept,
someone would wait until she got ready
and drive her to work.
Then one day, she sent me a text message.
"I'm sorry. I quit my job.
I'm moving to Cheonan."
It put me in a bind at work and
since then, the system of recommending
an acquaintance was gone.
- They got rid of that system? / - Yes.
Shouldn't you have been more considerate?
It's irresponsible to quit with a text message.
I didn't quit with a text message.
I talked to my manager first.
I told the manager that I want to quit
and packed my things. He didn't know that I quit,
so he texted me to find out what's going on.
"I quit." "Why?"
That's what happened.
Did you know that she aspired to be a model?
Dongju told me that she majored in modeling,
so I knew about it. But when we worked together
she didn't seem to be trying to become one.
She wasn't looking after herself to become
a model, so I thought she'd given up on that.
She didn't act like she wanted to become a model.
I'm Hyejeong's friend from high school.
Hyejeong's brother calls me his spy.
A spy.
When her family calls her, they end up
nagging at her, so she screens the calls.
But she answers when I call.
So Dongju calls me to ask where she is,
what she's up to, and why she's not answering.
So I call Hyejeong to ask what she's doing
and tell Dongju what's going on.
That must've been tough.
I would feel bad if I don't tell Dongju,
but I feel bad for betraying Hyejeong.
So many times, I felt awkward in the middle.
That must've been tough.
In your opinion as her friend,
does she have the possibility of becoming a model?
Besides a nice figure,
a model needs a unique-looking face.
Do you know model Hong Jingyeong?
- Yes. / - They look alike.
They both have long faces.
- Hong Jingyeong? / - I've known her for years.
She has that unique look.
But my friend is pessimistic and has low self-esteem.
Yes. That's the problem.
When she sees other women,
she compares herself to them. "Are they fatter?
Am I fatter? Who's skinner?
Why am I so ugly? What's wrong with me?"
She's very pessimistic,
so I often feel bad for her.
Do you have a role model? Hong Jingyeong?
Han Hyejin.
Why? You look like Hong Jingyeong.
What about Han Hyejin do you like?
She has a friendly image and I like that
she becomes a professional when she works.
Then look at how Han Hyejin has lived her life.
Follow her footsteps.
There's another problem.
Even if she works 2-3 days, she gets paid.
Then she goes all out?
She drinks with that money.
She doesn't have enough money for her phone bills.
She hasn't paid her rent either.
She said she saved up $2,000.
This was in the past.
- You paid everything back? / - Yes.
They were overdue.
It looks like you won't be friends anymore.
She may not answer your calls for a while.
Did you ever consider doing something else?
- No, not yet. / - Not yet?
This is what's strange.
You've never really tried to become a model
and never worked as a model.
But you've been dreaming about becoming one for years.
That's what I don't get either.
And you say you're not confident.
I've never seen a concern like this.
That's not the point.
Your family in Hongseong must worry about you.
Why don't you answer their calls?
They keep nagging about the same things.
You keep doing the same things.
That's why they nag about the same things.
It's because you haven't changed your ways.
How did you get ahold of her this time?
I...
He sent me 80 texts.
He wrote, "We're going to be on Hello Counselor."
So I replied, "I'm not going!"
"You tell the scriptwriter yourself then!"
So I ended up talking to the scriptwriter
and she was so eloquent.
Good job!
She's working very hard, too.
You're done once she gets you.
Once she calls you, it's done.
It's almost like voice phishing.
(We wait to hear about your concerns)
It must be tough for your parents, right?
Yes. They live far away and
they can't get ahold of her.
Mom has a hard time.
She said that one day my sister called and said,
"Let's cut ties if you're going to nag."
What?
Mom got so upset by that comment and called me.
Did you really say that to your mom?
This is what happened.
I told mom how tough it was for me.
"Mom, I'm having a hard time.
What should I do?" She got frustrated
and called my brother.
Then my brother called to yell at me.
"Hey, you terrible, awful, blank blank.
We don't need someone like you in the family.
Let's cut ties. Don't call mom!"
At the time...
Your brother said that first?
So you called mom and said the same thing?
She called me.
She called when I was trying to calm down.
I told her, "Why did you tell Dongju?"
And you said you'll cut off all ties with her?
Yes. I became just like my brother.
I was hurt, too.
I didn't get a loan from a loan shark or anything.
She was just worried about you.
Why did you say such hurtful things to her?
Mom...
She's been supporting my sister for years.
My parents are farmers.
They don't earn a lot of money from it.
Farmers don't earn much these days.
She works part-time at a rest stop every evening.
She works on the farm during the day and
she works at a rest stop at night to support us.
So she works at night for more money, too.
She farms and works part-time.
Yes, she works the night shift.
I wanted to surprise her so
I went to see her without telling her.
She was apologizing to a customer.
I don't know what she was apologizing about.
And you happened to see that.
I didn't want to see that,
so I was about to look away.
Then I saw her hands.
Her hands were covered in dirt from farming
and it doesn't come off anymore.
And she was apologizing to the customer for us.
No one likes to hear others complain.
But she just kept apologizing and
the customer kept yelling at her.
I just turned around and went home.
I can't believe we're putting her through that.
You couldn't help but say those harsh things.
I told myself that I have to be good to mom.
Oh no. Can I have some water?
(Everyone is reminded of their mothers)
This is why your brother said harsh things to you.
How do you feel now?
I think he was too emotional at the time.
I told her, "We must be good to mom."
But you heard that your sister complained to mom,
so that's why you called her names?
I was so angry.
So I told her, "Then let's cut ties
so that mom and I don't have to worry."
I feel bad about saying that.
I don't know what to say.
I want to be realistic here.
You need to find a company in the modeling field
and show them what you've got.
Whether it is a clothing company looking
for a fitting model, you should work there.
Then quickly decide if the path is right for you.
If you think you have a chance,
then go to the next level and find opportunities.
Discuss this with your brother and
do your best for a year.
You must set a certain time period.
I'm very doubtful though.
When someone has a dream
they end up looking for ways to do it.
If you have the will, you find the way.
You lose weight, practice walking and
look up information that you need.
But she's not doing any of that.
You seem to be very pessimistic.
What made you this way?
Since I have a long face,
boys teased me a lot when I was young.
I still get teased!
It was really tough.
But you can't change how you look.
"Why do I look this way?
Why do I have a long face? Why do I have
a big head?" You can't live like that.
You can't change how you look.
You have to accept it and overcome it.
If you look at Yeongja,
she is a very popular MC now.
But she failed the comedian exam many times.
I told people 4, but I actually failed 8 times.
I never passed the exam.
But I continued to work in this field
and word got around. A producer came later
and told me he wanted to hire me.
After seeing her on stage at an event.
I'm glad you are here today. Wanna One.
They are sitting here today and
they may seem lucky that they are so popular.
But they really worked hard to get here.
Tell us how hard you worked.
You have the right to do so.
Please tell us.
I can say that...
You said you were desperate to become a model.
For us, being on that audition program itself
was because we were desperate to make it happen.
We really wanted to become part of Wanna One.
During the 6-month program,
we only slept an hour a day to practice.
After the program was done, we practiced more.
Right.
We only focused on that during those 6 months
and finally became Wanna One.
You were in training before the program, right?
How old were you when you started to train?
I was in middle school.
Middle school?
- I came to Seoul by myself. / - Really?
I heard that Seongwu got a free ride.
(Boo)
- All right. / - I was just making a joke.
She was just kidding.
She's just doing her job.
I was just kidding.
I dreamed of becoming a star for 10 years.
During those 10 years, I worked hard at times,
I fooled around as much as I wanted at times.
I felt despaired and overcame it.
There were so many moments.
I think the biggest problem here
is that you have low self-esteem.
You aren't able to love your beautiful self just
the way you are.
I was discouraged at times and
I was embarrassed at times. I struggled a lot.
But I still believed in myself.
"I can do it. I will make it. I have a chance.
I'm going to be someone great."
I always had that hope in my heart.
I overcame any obstacles thanks to that hope.
I was just like her before I joined Wanna One.
While I was attending college,
I wanted to sing on stage so badly,
but I couldn't.
So I worked part-time jobs and
rented a room to practice.
I was actually in a band before
because I wanted to become a vocal singer.
I wasn't so confident about dancing.
But I was so desperate to become a singer
that I went on that program.
I didn't think I would make it.
I thought, "Let's just show what I have and go."
Fortunately, people liked what they saw in me.
Every week he said,
"I won't make it this time. Let's do our best."
He said that every week,
but he got better week after week.
Being on that audition program without an agency
is just...
He made it.
As you all know, Sangmin was
loved by the public as part of Roo'Ra.
Then he established his own agency and
it was as big as SM or YG at the time.
Then he hit rock bottom.
But he still thought highly of his own value
and told people that.
What I always tell younger singers is,
"Even if someone who doesn't have talent
fights hard to make it, people see that as art."
In the past, I really wanted to become a singer,
but I had nothing.
So I went to a band practice room and
started out by cleaning the place.
Then the band got a chance to perform on
"KBS Big Show" one day and
I came to the broadcasting station for the first time.
No one asked me to, but I just danced like crazy.
I wanted someone to notice me.
I made up all kinds of dances and someone
on the production team happened to see me do that.
He gave me his business card and asked me to call him.
He said that his friend was looking for
a dance singer. So since then, I went to
different agencies and became a singer.
If you have the will and the dream,
you can make it even without talent
if you do your best and struggle to make it.
But I don't see that desperation at all in you.
That's right.
It doesn't matter for us.
Whether you waste away your year
or not, it doesn't matter to us.
But since you are here today
I hope you use this chance to change yourself.
Do your best. Whether you make it or not.
It's not about whether you become a model or not.
It'd be great if you achieve your dream.
But even if you don't make it, I hope you aren't
discouraged and blame yourself.
Think about that first.
Okay. Why don't you tell your sister
what you want from her?
I know your dream is important,
but I hope you know that mom is struggling.
Be nicer to her.
I want to support your dream, but you haven't
tried your best yet. But I will have faith in you.
Let's start with Sangmin.
I think it's a concern.
I think it's a concern, too.
The hardest time I had was
- when I had low self-esteem. / - Right.
The most crucial thing is to love yourself.
I don't think it's a concern.
It's not a concern.
I hope you use your desperation
to work hard and become a successful model.
If you think it's a concern for her older brother,
please press the button.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Please stop.
Please say a word to your brother.
I will give up if it doesn't work out.
I'll be good to mom.
Let's be good to dad, too.
(We hope you get back your self-esteem!)
Please show us the result.
"Promise me that you'll give up."
