Contestant number one, I'm Park Myung Soo!
[Our first music festival started small in scale.]
[For the second music festival, we began to collaborate with musicians.]
[For the third one, we tried out different types of music.]
[Our last festival was much bigger in scale compared to previous ones.]
[And]
[2015 Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival]
[The full roster for the 2015 Infinity Challenge Music Festival]
[They chose their partner!]
- Should we drop the honorifics? - Should we?
- Why do we have to do a ballad? - That's why...
Why do we have to do a ballad? I'm going crazy here!
[As new memories are shared, the day gets closer.]
Ah, this is it!
[Their music is revealed a little more.]
- Dance, dance. - Ringa, ringa!
[The order of their performances has been decided!]
[August 13th, 9 a.m. in Pyeongchang.]
Dear viewers, how are you?
Infinity! Challenge!
The day we've been waiting for has finally arrived.
Ah, it's so...
Today we wrap up a journey of fifty days.
- Yes. - You may not remember how the time...
Your hair looks just like the lawn.
- It's an image for our concept. - I thought someone planted them.
[Fascinated]
It's a character. It's a new character.
How about Hwangtaeji? Did the preparations go well?
- Ah, yes, the preparations went well. - I see.
I was feeling good when I got here...
but after talking to this guy, I...
Ah, GD.
You found out about the performance order on TV, right?
Didn't you curse him out?
[You little...]
Taeyang, especially recently, he's been putting on an air of ingenuous beauty.
Young Bae! Young Bae, this is in Italy.
A lot of people take pictures with it like this.
You can forget when you panic.
It's over.
[This how Hwangtaeji became the first team to perform.]
But Jae Suk, the reason why Young Bae panicked is because...
- Why was that again? - Actually, I was...
- My mind went blank... - I said the exact same thing at first.
There is a reason why.
You have started on that path.
- Don't. I think it looks lame. - Do it. Tell them.
When I...
couldn't think of the answer, Mr. Park Jin Young... looked at me like.
'How could he not know this?'
That's the way he looks at audition contestants when they suck.
[Did I do that?]
I was going to tell you about the stage effects.
What you have are paper flowers...
Pillars of fire.
We have... fireworks.
Lifter and...
Laser. Fireworks.
We need to put on a good show for them.
I think it might be wrong to put on a show that lacks something.
- Let's share. - That's right.
We think the same way.
Since it is a festival
let's add one more stage effect that you want.
[They're happy, yet busy discussing which one to choose.]
Yes, for now, everyone
you have to use the one you already have.
And starting with Hwangtaeji.
We want paper flowers and pillars of fire.
And Hyukoh and Mr. Jung Hyung Don?
- Let's do paper flowers. - Okay, paper flowers.
- Pillars of fire. - He said he needs pillars of fire.
Pillars of fire are popular.
We want fire fireworks!
- Lifter. - Lifter!
- Lifter, that's good.
And also...
There is a team whose name hasn't been decided yet.
What are you doing?
- Zion. T chose Eutteugeottasi. - Yes, Eutteugeottasi.
- Two of you? - Sangjuna.
- Okay. - IU Unlike IU.
IU Unlike IU?
Ours hasn't been aired yet, but it's Dancing Genome.
- I want something like this. - What is it?
Kind of like delinquents.
- Two delinquents. - T.D.
- As in 'Ronald.' - As in 'Good Ron?'
How about Bookings?
Real delinquents date rather than meet girls.
Jin Young.
Ah, this has to be it...
How about genome, genome?
- Reminds me of DNA. - That's right.
- You know the genome project, right? - It's good.
Because you can't copy us by practicing.
- Because we have the DNA. - That's it.
Genome?
It means we have the dancing DNA in us. Dancing genome.
I know that's what you mean, but the nuance is a little...
Just say 'Genome.'
Let them do it. They want be be 'genomes,' anyway.
That's how we came up with the name.
By the way, Hyukoh and Hyung Don don't have a team name yet.
We met four times and decided on four names.
I know.
We need to decide on our team name.
The Barley Hump?
That's a little too...
- Something absurd. Hyung Oh. - Hyung and Oh?
I like Ha Ha's team name. Eutteugeottasi.
Should we go with Eutteugeottasi?
[Undecided]
[Sadness] [That's why they have no name.]
How about...
- There will be an audience there, right? - Yes.
By having them come up with it
how about using the name that I choose for you?
- That's a good idea. - That's right. I like it!
Okay. Out there, wow, already...
Currently it's 9:30 in the morning.
There are about twenty thousand people who are waiting out there.
They got here three days ago and slept in tents, waiting for today.
For enduring the hot weather
to everyone who joined the festival
we sincerely thank you.
Thank you!
This is where, as you know
the place where the Pyeongchang Olympics will be hosted in three years.
This is where it is.
Mr. Park Myung Soo, as our representative
for successful hosting of the Pyeongchang Olympics, please say a few words.
He really loves having an important title.
I'm not... yet able to come up with it.
Let's have a two-word poem with 'Pyeongchang.'
Okay, good, then...
I can't do this out of the blue.
A laughter hunter like you can do it no problem.
I believe in you, Myung Soo.
Fighting through any and every difficulty
he has survived in the entertainment business
to finally win the Daesang. (Grand Prize)
- The MBC Daesang. - That's right.
Mr. Park will...
It's something that even the Olympics Organization Committee hasn't done yet.
- Yes. Taking the first shot! - Yes, the first shot.
[The world is waiting...]
- Isn't it cool? - It's cool.
I'm proud of him.
[A two-word poem by an expert laughter hunter.]
Even President Obama is watching from the White House.
Even President Obama is staying up for this moment.
General Secretary Xi Jin Pin wants to respond to your message.
I hear even the President of Brazil is watching from far away.
Even Doto got up for this.
Okay, Pyeong!
Pyeongyang underneath Pyeong!
[Goosebumps]
Oh, it's good.
Chang!
[What will he say?]
I feel embarrassed.
[Ah...]
[That's how the world drowned in disappointment.]
Okay, did you see what IU did?
[Did this.]
She doesn't want to be part of it.
She hopes today will be over as fast as possible.
- And now, we, finally! - Stage, stage, stage?
2015 Infinity Challenge Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
Let's go take a look at the stage.
Let's go together!
The hat looks so big.
[Ten hours before the show.]
[This is the first time they got to see the stage.]
[Confused]
Oh, this is...
Wow, this is the best ever!
There can be...
about thirty thousand people in capacity.
[The general seating area.]
[Standing room on the lawn!]
[We installed two gigantic screens for easy viewing.]
[LED lights surround the main stage.]
[And many other lights that will add to the atmosphere.]
[This is the biggest stage ever for an Infinity Challenge Music Festival.]
Wow, there are LED lights.
[The festival feels a lot more real to them.]
Okay, this way, please.
Does anyone enter from that side?
[A little nervous]
These are kind of...
inspired by ski jumps. That's the feeling.
- Do we walk there? - Yes, yes, yes.
[Outside the venue at that moment.]
[A line started early that morning.]
[Hot enthusiasm surrounds the area.]
[Getting the place ready nine hours before the show.]
[Since it is the biggest I.C. music festival yet]
[everyone's health and safety are important as well.]
[Making sure that every equipment is working perfectly.]
[Seven hours before. Time for rehearsals.]
Standing there and...
how about making the entrance from the back?
[Hwangtaeji is getting something ready in secrecy.]
- This is when I feel most nervous. - Huh?
Because we get to see your performance.
[The performers are nervous as rehearsals are about to begin.]
This is no joke.
[But he's feeling very at ease.]
You get to hear what kind of songs the others have.
I see you practiced a lot.
[Really?]
I think, out of every festival we've done, I practiced the most for this one.
[GD checks the microphone.]
[The logos and symbols that represent 1988 in South Korea.]
We're ready to go.
Wow, the stage looks like a blockbuster.
Okay, we'll give a go.
[The first rehearsal by Hwangtaeji]
[Standing up to watch the rehearsal.]
[Curious]
[Kwanghee takes the center stage.]
[Cool]
[Smooth in hitting the high notes.]
[Kwanghee is sings way better than expected!]
[Feeling nervous]
[Mapsosa]
[Kwanghee doesn't look out of place at all.]
I was so surprised that they incorporated Kwanghee in such a cool way.
He was singing really well.
I was so surprised by that.
[GD calls someone over.]
[Someone enter the stage and does a back flip.]
[There are sangmo twirlers.]
[Wide-eyed]
Wow, this is no joke.
[Their performance feels like the finale.]
[Trying to look calm.]
[Nervous, nervous, nervous, nervous,nervous, nervous]
[Rehearsal completed]
- Hey, that's cheating! - Hey, aren't you going too far?
Hey, this is last, the ending!
Hey, it's like you're ending the show!
[The one who's actually ending the show feels nervous.]
The guys who have the resources won't let up, won't let up.
We should take away their paper flowers.
Thank you!
[Their performance promises to satisfy auditory and visual senses.]
[IU Unlike IU immediately goes over their game plan.]
[Feeling nervous that their performance may be overshadowed.]
[Feeling worried and excited at the same time.]
[The festival has begun.]
[A mysterious air of nervousness fills up the space.]
[Feeling more pressure after watching the rehearsal by Hwangtaeji.]
[Getting the nervous under control by warming up.]
Okay, we'll play the music. Music, cue.
[Rehearsal by IU Unlike IU]
[Starting without Myung Soo.]
[Excited to just to see IU walk.]
IU!
[However!]
[The musician can't enjoy it with ease.]
[IU takes over the stage all by herself.]
IU wrote a very good song.
When you think about how old she is, it's so...
IU's song was very good.
[After IU opens the performance]
[Elder Park makes his entrance on a lifter.]
[Suddenly, the tune changes.]
[So cute]
One, two, three, four.
[Overcoming the twenty-three year age difference.]
[He looks very excited?]
[A singer of twenty-three years also feel nervous.]
[The performance highlights their strengths.]
[Rehearsal completed]
IU! IU! Perfect!
IU is sexy!
But there is no EDM.
[It was hard imagining them performing together at first.]
Thank you.
[He's staring at...]
[Rehearsal by Eutteugeottasi]
[An unusual opening.]
What is it?
- What, what is it? - What, what, what is it?
Oh, what is it? Why a story line?
[What are they doing?]
[In the suitcases...]
[their mics.]
[Having seen a witty way to start the performance....]
[makes him nervous.]
[A soulful voice reverberates throughout Pyeongchang.]
[Is that the dance everyone knows?]
[Zion. T has never done danced on stage.]
[He practiced it for a month.]
[Having seen Eutteugeottasi's rehearsal, JYP gets ready for game time.]
[Let me stretch too.]
[Rehearsal completed]
- Wow, everyone's song is great. - Zion. T is good.
[And I do the finale...]
[Someone is being moved in.]
[A turntable and a electric wheel.]
[A very strange-looking keyboard!]
[Surprised]
[Space Cowboy and Davink]
[Rehearsal by Sangjuna]
[Having never seen it before]
[everyone stands up.]
[Standing upright like the Terminator.]
[Spinning]
[A very shocking image.]
[Good job, my brother.]
[Moving around the stage on the electric wheels.]
Ah, what is that?
[He practiced riding on it just for the festival.]
[You need to get closer for something like this.]
[Mr. EDM Factory Supervisor is excited to hear EDM.]
[Joon Ha's captures the other teams' attention.]
[Sangjuna's hidden card enters.]
[A powerful vocalist, Hyolyn]
[Jump!]
[EDM is the best.]
[A harmony of fast beats and cool singing.]
[Their song is heading toward the climax.]
[He forgot to unplug his headphones.]
[He didn't see it.]
[But we did.]
[As if nothing happened.]
[Takes his pose a little late.]
The best!
I thought Jae Suk worked the hardest
but there's someone that I could sense worked just as hard. Joon Ha.
[Rehearsal by Dancing Genome]
[They are discussing something in detail.]
Please check if they are working okay.
Okay, music... cue.
[Time to be fierce.]
[Trying to be fierce.]
What?
[I'm the dancing king today!]
- JYP! - JSY!
Collaboration! You guys ready?
[Dancing Genome's choreography is very powerful.]
[Jae Suk practiced very hard for today.]
[Everyone watches on!]
[Actually, I'm so sexy.]
[Jae Suk really did practice a lot.]
[So cool]
[The highlight of the choreograph!]
[Let's party!]
[I'm so sexy.]
[Very addictive beats and lyrics.]
[We're sexy too.]
[And if they move over]
[we follow you!]
[Very not attractive sexiness?]
[Overflowing with sexiness.]
[Dancing Genome's rehearsal completed]
[It clearly showed how hard Jae Suk worked.]
He probably practiced so much.
JYP is the best!
[The high level of sexiness thanks to their hard work.]
[Rehearsal by Hyung Don and Hyukoh.]
It's raining.
[It starts raining all of a sudden.]
It's raining quite a bit.
Oh my, what?
[Protecting his guitar.]
I mean the dry sky...
Why is it raining when the sky is dry?
Look. Isn't it so sunny?
[It starts raining just when they are about to rehearse?]
Hey, it's raining. You won't get electrified, right?
[Sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad.]
Why does it always rain when I sing?
[Moving it to avoid the rain.]
[Getting ready to rehearse regardless.]
[It's a familiar face!]
Yang Pyung!
- Seventy Fingers! - Hi.
[Yang Pyung!]
- Super Weeds Man. - Yeah!
[Finally, their rehearsal begins.]
[How will the rehearsal go?]
[Worried and concerned]
[It's a musical style performance.]
[Singing his heart out.]
[Exciting music fills up the space.]
[Hyung Don and Hyukoh create a song with a unique feel.]
[Not a finale song at all!]
- Wow, it's a work of art. - He's good.
So good. Isn't it?
[Every team rehearsed.]
[After Hyung Don and Hyukoh rehearsed]
[as if it was promised, the sky above is sunny again.]
[Five hours before the show.]
[People begin to enter.]
[For the people who came all the way to Pyeongchang for the show.]
[Providing a nice meal for everyone.]
[People keep on coming in.]
[In their own standby tents, they work hard getting ready.]
[Monitoring how the rehearsal went.]
[The festival is about to begin.]
[The last chance to before until the show is over.]
[Two hours before the show.]
[The space is being filled up.]
[Getting game face ready.]
[IU goes into makeup.]
[Getting dressed for the performance.]
[One hour before the show begins.]
[They have been waiting a long time for this moment.]
[That's when!]
[The audience gets excited.]
Hello, everyone. Nice to meet you.
[Myung Soo gets on stage for a pre-show.]
The main show begins at 8 p.m.
Before that, in order to get your excitement going
as a supervisor of an EDM factory, I greet you.
[A pre-show by G-Park]
I wrote this for this performance today.
Everybody, put your hands up!
[They unite under one EDM song.]
[Thanks to G-Park, the atmosphere heats up.]
[He worked as hard on this one as he did on the other song.]
[With so many people loving the music]
[the pre-show is complete.]
Thank you!
Oh my!
[Everyone is waiting in the main standby room.]
I mean for sure, wow, the music festival is about to begin.
To everyone who has supported our I.C. music festival
and also to you who worked extremely hard, I applaud you.
Thank you very much!
[Thank you.]
Ah, once again... time has flown by.
- I know. - Yes.
- Are you guys gold, silver, and bronze? - Yes, yes?
Silver, bronze. We're gold, silver, bronze.
Young Bae, wouldn't it be better to wear shorts instead?
[They look more like shorts.]
You surely have a lot of weaknesses.
[He's made for variety entertainment.]
Are you sad that the I.C. Music Festival is about to end?
I'm not sad about it.
[Very honest]
He shoots it totally straight.
GD told me on the way, 'Kwanghee, don't you say another word.'
He's really good.
By the way, IU...
- Aren't you happy? - Pardon?
That it's almost over.
What if Myung Soo wants you to do this all over again?
[I didn't hear that.]
- IU, aren't you so happy? - Yes, I am.
I know. IU, you've worked so hard.
Is Myung Soo coming?
Ah, Myung Soo! Gosh.
[Myung Soo is back from DJ'ing.]
He's an alien, an alien.
He's an alien.
[I thought they would say I look cool.]
[GD is completely overwhelmed by him.]
Hey...
He's Master Thimble Hat.
- I mean... - IU might hate it.
How far does your forehead go back?
Forehead all the way?
Because IU has seen it all from him, she's not even laughing.
[The music festival prep made her stronger.]
How about we start with doing a team chant?
Okay, thank you so much for your hard work.
Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
Let's turn this into a real festival. One, two three, let's go!
I'll see you later.
[Jae Suk will be hosting the festival!]
[The show is just about to begin.]
Hwangtaeji must feel nervous.
Two years really flies by.
[The countdown has begun.]
[The lights are turned off.]
[Only blue lights are on.]
[Here's tonight's host. Yoo Jae Suk.]
[It has begun!]
They probably waited so long.
Wow...
The MC is cool.
You've... waited for so long.
2015... Infinity Challenge... Music Festival.
Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
It... kicks off with great fanfare!
[Fireworks lights up the night sky of Pyeongchang.]
[So excited.]
Ah, why don't they let us use some of them?
[Hwangtaeji goes first!]
[Other teams cheer for them.]
- Let it all go like you're crazy. - I'll go party.
Don't try so hard.
Hey, we go up next.
[In truth, they feel nervous.]
What do I do...
- Let's do it well. - Let's hurry up and get it over with.
Hey... Ji Yong!
Let's get it over with.
- What are you talking about? - This is the last thing.
I want to get it done fast.
[At the same time, feeling light and energized.]
[GD, the international star, goes to the restroom.]
[He's feeling excited all by himself.]
Who are we?
Where did...
[We go to restroom at different times too...]
Okay, so!
2015 Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
We'll start the first performance.
[Kwanghee] [Taeyang]
[GD]
[Hwangtaeji]
Actually, I... am not worried about much
except for the second and the third teams.
I'm not worried about us.
While we go up first
I'd like to make it like the finale.
Hwang! Tae! Ji! Let's go!
Let's be forever!
- Ah, what are you doing? - Let's be forever.
They are...
the three who were born in 1988.
[Kwanghee]
Our... Hwangtaeji sings it.
'Mapsosa!' A hug around of applause, please!
[The first official performance by Hwangtaeji and the start of the festival.]
[High five]
[Everyone quiets down as they wait for Hwangtaeji.]
[The three 1988-ers appear.]
[Here comes Hwangtaeji.]
[Feeling nervous even though they sang the song hundreds of times.]
How much will be stir it up?
We won't have much space. We're in trouble...
if they turn it upside down.
- IU, are you nervous? - I feel so nervous.
You are nervous too? Why?
She has a feeble constitution.
[The stage now belongs to Hwangtaeji.]
You ready?
[Three friends open the show together.]
['Mapsosa' by Hwangtaeji]
[Oh my gosh]
[It's a song about the amazing friendship they share.]
[A hip-hop dance song that shifts gears beautifully.]
Wow, look at Kwanghee.
[Hwangtaeji holds nothing back.]
[GD seems to be born to be on stage.]
[Taeyang's singing dominates the sound waves.]
[Kwanghee practiced this part countless times.]
[Kwanghee's transformation makes one say 'oh my gosh!']
[Getting warmed with with some breaking dancing.]
[Feeling even more nervous]
[The rhythms change to prevent any trace of boredom.]
[Kwanghee's rap!]
[Kwanghee raps in a low and smooth tone of voice!]
[Like three kids on playground.]
[So exciting]
[As the song shifts gear again, sangmo twirlers jump onto the stage.]
Hey, Ji Yong and Young Bae!
My body is moving! What do I do?
[Let's party!]
[Bukcheong lions join in.]
[Their paper flowers]
[Dream-like flowers falling from the sky.]
[A festival where the audience and the performer dance to the same vibe.]
Everyone say, oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
[Using the voices of thirty thousand as the BGM.]
When I say Hwang, you say Taeji.
- Hwang! - Taeji!
[The three 1988-ers turned the place upside down.]
[The festival has official been launched.]
[My gosh!]
Well done!
The best. So cool.
Wow, it's over. It's the closing.
Wow, this is...
Isn't this... like the end of a show?
Kwanghee, you finally get to perform with GD and Taeyang. How was it?
It was so much fun!
Make some noise!
Yeah!
Thank you, my friend!
This is... what you find overwhelming, right?
Yes, very much so.
- I love you, my bro! - Anyhow...
I feel very relieved.
What is the reason why... you feel very relieved?
I think this is as far as my friendship with Kwanghee goes.
Not true. Not true.
A performance that Kwanghee dreamed of.
And this is how it ends.
And now
GD... if you were to join our next music festival
what would you say if Kwanghee wants to team up with you again?
- I'll join in for the next one as well. - Really?
- I'll be like an appendix.
- You'll be joining in? - I'll be joining, but...
with him...
- Since you worked with him. - since I worked with him.
I'd like to work with someone else, but...
- Do you want to? - Wow... with you?
Of course! Let's go!
Okay... this is what they...
- Someone said, 'Don't.' - That's what they feel uncomfortable.
Kwanghee, Hyung Don
and Myung Soo you've worked with. Okay.
One the count of three, the one you had the best chemistry with is?
Okay, one! Two! Three!
Two! Three!
This guy.
Kwanghee!
[Oh my, my Ji Yong. Well done.]
[Disappointed]
Ah, seriously. To the friends who were born in 1988
a round of applause for three of them, please. Thank you!
Ah, you did well.
The first one was very good. Ah, very well done.
- How do you feel? - I liked it.
- It's the best I've done. - Really?
I feel good! I feel good.
During the performance, in the middle of it
there is a part where we do this at the end.
I made eye contact with Young Bae and Ji Young.
That thing singers do, you know?
We smiled as we looked each other in the eyes.
I was so happy that it worked perfectly even though we didn't practice that part.
'This is what a team is.'
To me, I feel it's been fifty very happy days.
- It's been fifty days? - It's been fifty days.
It's been fifty days since we kept in touch.
- You count that? - Yes, I counted each and every day.
- Are you my girlfriend? - I counted the days that we talked.
I feel sad that I need to part ways with friends like them.
I feel sad too, but we need to.
Because I need to go home.
Okay, next!
Finally, we get to see them.
EDM...
factory...
[I think I know who.]
Someone... who only wants to play EDM
and IU, a good daughter.
Please see for yourself how their conflict
may brilliantly unfold on this stage tonight.
[IU]
[Park Myung Soo]
[IU Unlike IU]
[Two snipers walking.]
[Just a few minutes ago.]
[The filial daughter putting her father at ease.]
[I should give them a talking to later.]
Because Team Hwangtaeji was so good
I was a little worried that we would get overshadowed.
I know, we can't even find a lion to put on stage from somewhere.
It's a song that IU worked so hard staying up countless nights.
I'll do my best so that I get to express
the song a hundred percent completely for you.
I ask for your interest and support. Let's go!
Overcoming the age difference of over twenty years
they came back as Leon and Matilda. IU Unlike IU!
'Leon!' Here is comes. A huge round of applause, please.
[The place turns into a night city.]
[Black sunglasses]
[IU looks like Matilda in the movie 'Professional.']
[Wow, did she cut her hair?]
[IU Unlike IU]
['Leon']
[Leon and Matilda who were wandering about]
[they somehow feel attracted to one another.]
[The song features the feel of retro blues.]
[A provocative entrance]
[As Matilda is walking aimlessly]
[Leon enters on a lifter.]
[The rap part where he had much difficult. The audience rap along with him!]
[And Myung Soo's hand shakes.]
Why is he shaking? Why does his hands shake so much?
[EDM Factory IU]
[They sense the loneliness in one another.]
[Black sunglasses]
[Don't wanna dance, girl.]
[Old Leon grumbles.]
[I don't want to show my sad eyes.]
[IU's sexy rap]
[Moving like a pussy cat.]
[Shifting to a refined blues flavored melodies.]
[It works well with Myung Soo's rough singing voice.]
Black sunglasses!
[Opening their hard, shut hearts...]
[they feel attracted to one another.]
[Off balance]
Go! Go! Go!
[Matilda makes even old Leon dance.]
[The chemistry heads toward the climax.]
[The lights go off.]
[It was like watching a movie.]
Ah, IU is good.
Ah, everyone is good.
[An aftertaste still remains.]
You thought it was over?
Uh, what is that?
This wasn't part of their rehearsal.
[Black sunglasses. Black sunglasses.]
[EDM factory puts everyone to work.]
[A black crow flies by.]
[DJ Yoo Jae Hwan is a reliable worker.]
[Black sunglasses.]
Ah, what is this all of a sudden?
Look.
[Jae Hwan's belly joins in and dances.]
[Everyone jumps on the EDM bandwagon.]
Scream!
[The total contrast to the first half of their performance.]
[IU bounces.]
[This is EDM Empire.]
[This is so exciting.]
[IU Unlike IU sets the mood onstage even after their performance.]
Our IU Unlike IU!
[Hi, everyone.]
[It was the best.]
Ah, it was very good.
After all, he gets to do it.
- Eventually! - He mixed it exquisitely, exquisitely.
Eventually, he gets to do EDM.
Yes.
Isn't he Simbongsa?
[IU looks like Shimchung guiding her blind father Shimbongsa.]
I was wondering if you were going to do 'caw, caw, caw, caw'.
- You did it. - We should.
Because of 'caw, caw, caw', the crowd went wild.
[It was very good.]
[Thank you.]
- Actually, it's... Jae Suk. - Yes?
Performing with IU is such an honor for me.
- I don't know when I'll get to see her. - I know.
So, I think what if she sings 'caw, caw, caw' live?
Ah, it's so...
[We wholeheartedly agree.]
There are... so many people here.
IU's 'caw, caw, caw.'
- I wonder if it'll be all right. - Ah, yes.
[Using claps as the BGM.]
[A hundred percent hand-made EDM.]
Ah, you can.
[IU can do everything.]
Singing 'caw, caw, caw,' is much better doing it yourselves
than having it play on a computer.
Okay, a huge round of applause for IU Unlike IU, please.
Thank you!
It was so exciting. IU, it was so exciting.
Ah, sir, have a safe trip home.
When you... entered the stage.
The audience was rapping along that part with you so loud.
[After watching it only once on TV, they rapped it for Myung Soo.]
I was so pleased.
I was feeling so happy as I was walking.
I also... feel about the same.
Because they rapped before I did, I panicked.
'My gosh?' I panicked.
I am so grateful for it.
I think that's what IU is capable of.
- It's what you're capable of... - No.
- IU, I'm sorry. - No, you did really well.
- Oh, two teams are done already? - Already?
It took us a month and a half, right?
I'm sad.
But we'll remember it forever.
And finally, a team that will heat up the stage so hot.
I think they are the only team
that didn't have even the tiniest conflict.
They have been very harmonious.
[Ha Ha and Zion. T.]
[Eutteugeottasi]
[Eutteugeottasi gets ready to fly.]
Two three, Eutteugeottasi!
Let's go!
For instance, if Hwangtaeji is about flashy and great performance
we're completely about moderation.
- Art of moderation. - Art of moderation.
Like that, yes.
He who has a free soul, Ha Ha.
The one who has a charm that's irresistible.
A performance by Zion. T.
Eutteugeottasi's 'Sponsor.'
'Sponsir'!
[But no one is on stage yet.]
[Where are they?]
[Ta-da!]
[Hot damn!]
[Even their entrance blows your mind.]
[Mysterious ladies with suitcases get on stage.]
Oh, cool.
[In the suitcase...]
[Golden mics]
['Sponsor']
[I'm your sponsor, sponsor, sponsor.]
[A choreograph inspired by Michael Jackson.]
[A song that reminds us of Michael Jackson.]
[their desire to share their energy and enthusiasm with those who are listening.]
Ah, cool.
[His foot dances to it.]
[Just the intro makes you want to bounce to it.]
I'm Hae Sol's dad.
[Zion. T's dad on the LED screens.]
[Ha Ha and Zion. T want to provide everything for those who are listening.]
[I'm your sponsor.]
[Eutteugeottasi is our sponsor.]
[Thanks to their perfect chemistry, they dance as one.]
[Time for Ha Ha's solo performance.]
[Zion. T enters without his fedora.]
Call me.
[Very addictive lyrics and easy to sing along.]
[A performance that you can't take your eyes off of.]
[The song slowly gains more and more momentum.]
Put your hands in the air.
[Everyone is bouncing.]
[I'll give you whatever you want.]
[Lights off]
[Who is who?]
[They did the choreography in their own styles.]
[By getting on the lifter, they won.]
[Supplying in abundance]
Woo hoo!
Oh, cool.
I'm your sponsor!
[Everyone loves Eutteugeottasi.]
[How true sponsors do it.]
[Eutteugeottasi filled the audience up with energy.]
Thank you! Thank you, everyone.
Wow, so cool.
Ah, every team is good.
I'm in trouble.
You two are as how I introduced you.
You are the ones who stood out for your fantastic chemistry.
As that's the case
what would you give a score to the other as partners for the music festival?
Okay! One, two... three!
- 100 points, yes. - 90 points.
[Oh, no.]
OK, Ha Ha gave 100 points.
Did you give him 90 points, Zion. T?
- 100 points... - You gave him 90 points.
I heard you say '90 points.'
What's amiss? How come you didn't give him that extra ten points?
I didn't know Ha Ha would give me 100 points.
Ah, really?
The one who's the most important in my heart is Zion. T.
[Ha Ha.]
He must have memorized those lines.
The most important one in his heart used be Jae Suk...
and his wife.
It used to be Zion. T and his son.
He placed Jae Suk above his own wife.
Really?
[Eutteugeottasi finished their performance.]
Hey, Zion. T, you did well.
First of all, because it feels like I didn't do as much as I prepared
Feeling of sadness stands out.
We came up with the name Eutteugeottasi because of a fiery spark.
Just like the name of our band
I'm so grateful that we received so much love from you.
Out of six teams, three teams have performed.
And now, finally we get to...
Yes, yes.
Ah, I'm sorry.
Because there's something off with the number six camera, for a moment...
[The festival is put on hold for a moment.]
I'm sorry.
- It's okay. - Yes. One person said that it's okay.
Out of so many people, one person said it. Yes, thank you.
Actually, the writers are asking me to prolong it
as much as I can on the monitor in front of me.
Because so many of you are here, what's something that we could do?
- Dancing! - Pardon? Dancing?
[The audience summons Dance Yoo.]
Okay, if I can and if you'll be entertained, I'll...
dance...
It's been a while since I've done a classic dance.
I present to you the grasshopper dance.
[Inviting the crowd to clap along.]
[The audience is ready.]
[Grasshopper Dance]
[Production staff play a track for him.]
[Jae Suk lets his inner-dance out.]
[It's so much more fun to watch him dance in person!]
[Thanks to the malfunction of a camera]
[the audience receives an unexpected gift.]
Wow, my bro!
He needs to save his energy... for our performance.
Okay. We'll continue on.
Because this is our tenth year
we have special performances here tonight.
Based on a survey that about sixteen thousand people completed
we prepared the top three songs from our music festival history.
Okay, the ones you selected...
Third place!
It's been so long since we've seen them.
The song that we used to hear every day at clubs and vacation spots.
Okay, welcome them with a round of applause.
A huge round of applause, please!
[He looks familiar.]
['Having An Affair']
[Out of about sixteen thousand people, 1,652 people voted for the song.]
Let's go.
[One of the songs performed at Seohaean Expressway Music Festival.]
[The first time GD collaborates with one of the guys.]
[It's been four years since they performed together.]
[With wind on stage]
[it makes for a festival.]
[It's a song that heated up the festival that night.]
[The muscles remember the rhythm!]
[Let's party.]
[They are much more at ease on stage.]
[A special performance that the audience had a good time with.]
IU!
[IU as a reinforcement.]
Her hair got longer!
[IU transformed back to herself.]
Bounce!
[More than just a wind, it's a typhoon.]
[It's been four years since, but the energy feels the same!]
For the three of them, a huge round of applause, please.
[They are the best.]
The best.
And now...
we are at about the midpoint of the music festival.
Let's keep going with the enthusiasm.
- Okay, everyone, are you ready? - Yes!
The second place to this person. A round of applause, please.
['Story of a Short Kid']
Everyone, it's been a while.
I don't know if you remember this song.
[Ha Ha won the grand prize at the first I.C. music festival with this song.]
[He prepared the performance to recreate the moment.]
[2,914 people voted out of about sixteen thousand people.]
[Back then, Ha Ha was a greenhorn twenty-nine year old.]
[He's singing it again as a father and a husband.]
[Everyone singing in one voice.]
[Nino Maximus Keyser Söze]
This side!
[Sonya Thor and Sparta]
[I won't die]
[because I'm a short kid.]
Thank you!
Okay, Mr. Ha Ha, come this way, please.
Wait. Are you having fun, everyone?
One more time!
Nino Maximus Keyser Söze Sonya Thor and Sparta.
[Reggae dancing time]
[Dance with me, my friend.]
[He sang it in front of thirty people back then.]
[Now he's singing the song in front of 30,000 people. An unforgettable moment.]
And now, finally...
Out of our past festivals
the song our viewers voted for.
The first place song we've been waiting for.
[Someone walks on stage.]
Okay, while I feel shy about it...
[The first place goes to.]
[Lee Juk who is a singing poet.]
['As I Say']
When I was twenty years old
After I endured through a day
When I anxiously lay down to sleep...
What do I do tomorrow? What do I do tomorrow?
I would worry
Even when I closed my two eyes, I just couldn't fall asleep
And just when I'd get so frustrated that it hurt
I told myself, 'Why can't I, why can't I succeed?
Could you sing with us?
Just as one says.
I didn't believe that things could happen as one says.
I couldn't believe it.
Just as one decides, doing as one thinks
Just as one thinks
seemed like a lie. I hung my head low.
But then one day, I found a small but amazing realization in my heart.
And I got to dream what I want to do tomorrow, what I want to do tomorrow.
Actually, there have never been times when I felt crazy in love about something.
I thought about it.
I raised up myself.
That it's possible that things happen as we think and as we say
I didn't know.
I didn't know back then.
Those hard times in my twenties, will never come back and can never go back.
Don't stop, don't give up, keep walking on your path.
So many things people say to you
but what you need to really hear is the voice in my heart.
Right now, just as my heart says.
Just as one says...
it's possible that it's possible
if you believe it.
Just as you decide.
Just as you think
challenges in infinity and always in life.
Just as one says.
Just as one says...
[A magic spell sung by Jae Suk and Lee Juk. 'Just As One Says.']
Just as one says!
Just as one says...
It's so good.
Okay, it's been
very long since we've sung it together.
Thank you everyone for being part of it.
For Lee Juk and Si Won, a huge round of applause, please!
Thank you!
[A gift from the memory lane.]
And the next performance is
it took the most time and energy out of every performance we've prepare for.
I think it'll be more splendid than any other performance.
Everyone
- are you ready? - Yes!
- Are you ready! - Yes!
- Sang, I feel so nervous. - Hey, don't worry about it.
Wait, I need washroom. I have to go.
I kind of ride it, too.
I did practice rapping a lot, but...
- I kind of regret that I chose rap. - No, I got it much better.
That we worked hard as much as we struggled.
'They went for an infinity challenge,' is what I really hope to hear from them.
I also did not have an easy time, mixing that many genres of music.
But because it's for Joon Ha
I think I could melt them all together.
Mr. Jung Joon Ha and Mr. Yoon Sang perform together
Sangjuna performs it
'My Life!'
[Focused]
[Overcoming the nerves, he steps up.]
[Yoon Sang]
[Joon Ha]
[Sangjuna]
['My Life']
[On electric wheels.]
[Feels like a sci-fi movie.]
[We're EDM!]
[Greeting rap that's so addictive.]
[Rapid rap on electric wheels.]
[Rapper Joon Ha swims smoothly through rhymes.]
[Yoon Sang, Hyolyn and Kim Eana worked together for Joon Ha.]
[An EDM song that has elements of pop and hip-hop.]
[Power vocalist Hyolyn is on stage.]
[Loud and crystal clear voice.]
[Brilliant on-stage performance.]
[Joon Ha on lifter]
[Wide-eyed]
[Laser lighting time]
[Joon Ha has been practicing poppin day and night with Joo Minjeong.]
[Perfect harmony]
[Transformed into robots]
He really worked hard.
He's good at the moonwalk too.
[Two robots separates.]
Wow, I thought time stopped!
[The vibe is heating up in here.]
[Yoon Sang DJs an EDM song live.]
[Everything started for you]
[but I think my gift is you.]
[The audience is overflowing with excitement.]
[Rap along, please.]
[Joon Ha and Yoon Sang sharing the dream.]
['My Life' by Sang Joon Ha]
First of all, I'm so appreciate of Joon Ha.
No, not at all.
Look at his sweat.
I was very worried
but because we were able to show everything we've worked on
I feel absolutely delighted.
Because so many people sang along and join us...
I think it was a good idea. Wasn't Beenzino a big help?
- I thank Mr. Beenzino, as well. - For sure.
Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
There are only... two performances left.
And also
I think so many people here have awaited for this team.
Of dancing, by dancing, and for dancing.
These two men united because of dancing.
They are born... to dance.
They have dance DNA equipped in every part of their bodies.
Dancing Genome's performance 'I'm so sexy!'
[Finally, they get to dance their hearts out!]
One knows very well how much one has practiced.
When Jae Suk got here in the morning, he looked happy and confident
because he sweated so much.
Once the music starts, I think he'll fly around.
Uh... after talking about my discontent in regards to dancing
I came across Jin Young and learned it hardcore from him
very severely what dancing really is.
The fruit of my labor. As Jin Young says, I'll party without holding back.
[Yoo Jae Suk. Park Jin Young.]
[Dancing Genome]
[The story of two men who are crazy about dancing.]
[After meeting him...]
[I've become a real dancer.]
[Reporters are here for this special occasion.]
[I've been hiding, but actually, we're born sexy.]
['I'm so sexy']
[A song about feeling unable to hide their sexiness any longer.]
[Shall we begin?]
[Yes! I won those fireworks.]
[It took him throwing a full on tantrum on national TV to win the fireworks!]
[Wasn't it a good idea? Of course.]
[They've been practicing these moves over and over.]
[The move that says 'I'm sexy!']
[I'm born sexy.]
[I love it.]
[A fantastic combination between American and Korean excitements.]
[This is the part that's full of high difficulty moves.]
[Power moves and feeling the rhythm!]
[Successfully kicking each other's soles.]
[The best.]
[Well done, my brother!]
[I can't hide it any longer!]
[Feeling sexy all over.]
[Two sexy men, they partied the way it's meant to be.]
[They showed everything they've been working on.]
Okay, once again, for Dancing Genome, a huge round of applause, please!
[We did it.]
When we were about to go on stage, it suddenly started to rain.
We are dancers, so when the floor is watery...
Ah... I think we overcame the elements and danced well.
As you heard, you heard Jin Young say 'we are dancers,' right?
That's right.
I could have dance it a little better.
However, since we did our best
I'm very appreciative of Jin Young.
[Hyukoh will perform last.]
[Hyung Don goes backstage to get ready.]
[The performance that will wrap up their journey of two months.]
[Hyung Don practices the lyrics before going on stage.]
[I need to check it again.]
That's right. Oh... I think I forgot because I got so nervous.
And now... it's Hyukoh and Hyung Don's turn
every team has a team name
except for Hyukoh and Hyung Don.
[Getting on stage without their team name.]
I'd like to decide on their team name with you. How about it?
[The audience gets to choose.]
A team name that comes to mind.
Jung Hyung Don.
Jungoh?
Ah, Jungoh?
Ohhyungdon?
Ah, Ohhyungdon, Jungoh...
There isn't one that stands way out yet.
The Five Emperors!
The Five Emperors?
[Since there are five of them in total.]
[This is it.]
- The Five Emperors, how about it? - We like it.
- The Five Emperors! - Yes!
Okay, then! Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival.
The one that will be the grand finale.
- The last! - Woo hoo!
They will do it really well.
OK! The last performance is by The Five Emperors!
'Wonderful Barn'! A huge round of applause, please!
[Hyukoh]
[Hyung Don]
[The Five Emperors]
[The door of the wonderful barn opens!]
[The prodigal son has returned to the wonderful barn.]
Wow, it looks like a musical.
[A Western-style bar on the side.]
[It's a song about a prodigal son who has been living only for himself]
[realizing that he's only been damaging himself living that way.]
[No trace of nerves in way he starts off.]
[Yang Pyung plays banjo.]
[He's totally into the character.]
He's good. Cute.
[Taking a deep breath.]
[Launches an exciting exclamation.]
When the sun goes down, I need to catch the thief.
[I caught his head.]
[A story of prodigal son who returned home.]
Mom and Daddy, is it all my fault?
I don't know...
I... really don't know!
[The prodigal son is on the road again.]
[The barn door closes back again.]
[Mama...]
[A creation of the friendship developed between Jung Hyung Don and Hyukoh.]
['Wonderful Barn' by The Five Emperors]
How about, Hyukoh, I wonder how you feel.
Ohhyuk?
[Ohhyuk's eyes are teary.]
Ah, first of all, it's so...
Because we just got started and it's over already
- I feel sad. - I see.
- I feel it's been so fun. - Ah, really?
I feel particularly sadder that this music festival is over...
for some reason.
You feel sad because you're parting ways with us.
- I think so... - Is it funny?
The Five Emperors...
Usually, people follow up by saying 'let's go!'
You were too fast.
When you were doing this, I was ready.
[You guys are all grown up now.]
The Five Emperors! Let's go!
And now...
every participant who joined us for the Yeongdong Expressway Music Festival
will you come up?
GD, Yoon Sang, Jung Joon Ha, IU
including Jae Hwan, there are many who joined us.
To everyone who joined us despite the rough weather
I once again sincerely thank you.
Thank you!
And let's...
see you again 2017! Infinity! Challenge!
[This is how the journey of two months]
[so many took as a team, comes to a conclusion.]
What's coming to my mind is for the first time it was a good idea to do this.
Even though we went up first
they showed so much enthusiasm.
Come to think of it, Young Bae is a lucky charm.
It's a lucky charm that he had us be the first team to perform.
- What's the thing that leans to one side? - The Leaning Tower of Pisa.
You guys are good.
Hyun Jae told me this
'Hyung Don, so...'
'there won't be any more filming for Infinity Challenge on Thursdays?'
When I heard that...
So I, I don't know it helped, said something for him.
'There isn't.'
When I joined, I made up my mind to work with Mr. Park.
Somehow, I was fortunate that it worked out.
Mr. Park and myself exchanged a lot of ideas.
Although there were times where we felt stuck
I also felt oddly euphoric.
That's how
good creative work comes out of difficulty and hardship.
- That's true. - We got quite a bit of airtime as well.
I think... thanks to IU, I caught two rabbits
is what I believe.
Thank you.
- Don't change your phone number. - Okay.
Okay.
First of all, I feel very sad.
Because this is my first time being a regular guest
I was awkward at times.
I was inept about a lot of things.
They came from far away and shouted my name.
It was a really precious experience.
At some point, without an impetus, I had no reason to try something new.
Thanks to 'I.C.' and Joon Ha, I got to go for it.
Because I think it worked out pretty well
I feel... very happy.
Honestly, I'm proud of him.
Seriously, it's not something that one can learn at his age
by working so hard, he did a great job today.
I'm so proud of you.
Seriously, Jin Young, thank you.
Jin Young, thank you so much.
[A memory that will...]
[live in a corner of their hearts.]
