He is a fool but.. [The first fool in South Korea that is not easy to deal with] [Awkward] ["It's because of my smile"] ["Can you show us that smile?"] [A smile that is not easy to deal with] [The 116th Episode / A comeback interview with MONSTA X who is not easy to deal with] [MMTG - Spread the new culture] [May XX, 2020 @ SBS in Seoul Mok-dong] What I've prepared for the star of Best Comeback Interview today, is, [Services of Best Comeback Interview 1. Making a banner] [Services of Best Comeback Interview 2. Magnificent outdoor shooting] And for the third one, [Services of Best Comeback Interview 3. Gold and Silver accessories] They are stars famous for the chains, so. [They are the singers, professional with chains on their bodies] [Excited] [Hello] [Congratulations on your comeback MONSTA X 'FANTASIA'] [Welcome] But we didn't even get the posters yet. [Amazing] Let us start. One two three! Who! MONSTA X~ Who! MONSTA X! [Bowing]
Hello. We are MONSTA X! [Claps] Minhyuk. How have you been? [He's met Jaejae before / good to see you]
I know! Actually, we've made an "Oath of the Peach Garden" at the Gocheok Dome. [The fifth guest for the MMTG Red Carpet MONSTA X Minhyuk] [Emphasizing once again]
I've really watched it!!!!! [A warm heart with the legs working under the capitalism] That was the 87th episode of MMTG. Do you watch the shows you appeared in over and over again? Yes, I do. [I love myself]
I don't remember any other episodes. hehe When you found us there, you went crazy saying you have watched, and you do watch MMTG and one of your managers told you to come quickly I've really watched MMTG!! The manager of MONSTA X : Minhyuk~ I'm sorry [No problem~]
We will visit you soon. He just spoiled everything. Who among you was the one!! That one, that one. [They really had conflicts with their schedules] I really wanted to talk to you. [I knew it]
Right? I've been a huge fan, [The civilized man]
since when the views of MMTG were not that high yet. Which episode did you like? I liked the 'Mazeltov' one, [Approved] Our 'Songs that we Listen to while Hiding'~ When that one came out, I started watching since then. [Happy] [You are approved as a civilized man] [Touched]
You are real. And I also liked the 'Bbiribbom Bbaeribom' episode. [Give] [and take] The main vocalist is now shocked. [According to Kihyun - Jaejae's vocal's got the details] [Shy] [Subscribe & like] [Best Comeback Interview - the reviewing session / The legendary legend MONSTA X] You had so many legendary moments, [Tired]
so we had a hard time picking. The first one that came to my mind! is the water show! Do you remember this stage? At the Golden Disc Awards, you crawled on the stage and you were slapping with water on the water [Water slap] I mean about the socks and stuff, [Curious]
didn't they get wet? - That's the basic
- The socks get wet. Everything gets wet. Then isn't it difficult to take off your clothes after doing this? [All wet]
Since they all get stuck to your skin. But we need to show cool performances to our MONBEBEs. So we just give it a go for the MONBEBEs [Touched]
For the detail, it needs to be splashed a bit when we step on the water right? And the water splash became part of our sharp group dance. [The professionals in water splash dance] [She's making silly lines] All the water bubbles come up in sync. [It's true] I would like to talk about Jooheon and I.M since you two do the rapping as the great partners. Yes! [Right] [The soul partners Jooheon & I.M] In the song 'Follow' [The perfect Tiki-taka] 'Alligator' [Rhyme]
Recognize me this is the country. [(Amazed) Shy] [The rap lines that they give and take quickly] How do you work on these lines? As we have the brainstorming day and night We would be like this is good, oh, and that is good. We wanted to make something that no one can imitate, [Determined]
and show people that we are a duo. We worked hard and were really immersed in when we were working on those lines. Yeah, you really wraped your heads. [The two holding their heads on the stage as well] [Jooheon and I.M Having a brainstorming .mp4] They put their heads together. Like the actual heads! They literally put their heads together. We didn't plan that ahead [Surprised]
and he just grabbed the back of my neck all of a sudden. Oh you didn't plan that ahead? Oh~ you did not plan that ahead? We did not know about that either. [Awkward]
I just grabbed it. He is not looking at him. Only he's looking at him. (No wonder) I.M's ears turned red. [It turned out I.M was a bit embarrassed] As you watch the actual stage in Inkigayo I was in the middle, and later I'm being pushed to the right side [(I.M being pushed to the edge of the screen) Swoosh] On this stage, I was like "M, are you ready?" [The real name]
"Changkyun!" M, M! Are you ready? We are going to rock the stage. [Admiration] (But) with no planning ahead lol With no planning ahead! [(Passion) Grab]
I just grabbed the back of his neck, I did. [You did..] But that's how you came up with the cool Tiki-taka. [Approved] The next stage is, I can barely take a breath now. We have the, Back performance. [Cheer]
Shownu! [Satisfied] On the stage for MAMA after doing this, at the end, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, abruptly! [haha] It was during the winter, didn't you feel cold? I think it was a bit cold. [Curious]
Is it a clothing that is ready to be torn easily? We sewed the thread about twice to make it easy to be torn. [Amazed] There is a behind story with the stage. I've seen the reaction of the other artists, and as Shownu did this with his back, other artists were like [Startled!!!!!!!!!!!] [Enthusiastic] [Shocked]
He is making exaggeration. [Dumbfounded] [Satisfied]
I will stop it here. [The end] As I can recall, I haven't said it elsewhere [Dim memory]
Minhyuk was supposed to show his back as well. [Looking faraway]
During the practice he was supposed to. [Right] And on the performing day Minhyuk was like [Shakes head]
"I can't do this" so it was changed. [He doesn't like exposing his body]
You must step on me before you make me do it! By the way, about exposing the back, I don't know if you could remember but back in 2008 at the SBS Gayo Daejeon [Right]
TVXQ has exposed their backs altogether once. [The original back exposing] I heard Minhyuk is a fan of TVXQ. Do you remember their stage? We didn't get the idea from that stage but it kind of reminded of that stage. I heard when you were sharing the waiting room with Changmin you received the CD from him but you could not receive it properly since your hands were shaking too much. Yes, that's really true. By the way, you know everything. [Proud] [Oh yeah] Changmin, happy birthday!!!!!!! [Claps] I wanted to ask you to do this [Touching/ no big deal]
but I thought you might be troubled so I did it instead of you. [Thank you] [A bonus session - a short quiz about MONSTA X] [1st Quiz: When was the time when Shownu wore this outfit?] That was the 'Fighter' era. - It looks like during the summer though?
- It should be Fighter if it's summer. [Answer: November] [I see]
Oh~ That was in winter. The beginning of winter! MONSTA X goes the opposite way, always. [Strange / the tradition of MONSTA X]
We dress up lightly during the winter and warmly in summer. We've always been like that. But you look so chill here. Didn't you feel cold at that time? I probably felt cold. Right? We were worried that you might catch a cold. The trees at the back are of dusty colors. MONSTA X being not season-appropriate. The legendary outfits were with harness and chokers. Those are what you have used often. [MONSTA X professional of the metals] You have used body chains a lot during the 'JEALOUSY' era. [The fancy body chains] I see it touches on the bare skin. Isn't it cold? It's really cold. You first wear harness on the bare skin and then the clothes. Oh wow X3 [Strange]
Why do you do that to us? I heard you make it warm with the hair dryer before you put it on. [Amazed]
- How did you know that?
- How did you know that? We warm it with the hair dryer. [Surprised]
(Wow) so that was true? Yes, it is true. [Hmm??]
I.. I've never heard of that. [Joke]
We do that. [Sad]
They never made mine warm for me.. Really? Yeah.. It's my first time hearing about warming it with a hair dryer. The chain touches the bare skin! I've always [Oh that's cold!]
put it on being like oh!!!! Kihyun is complaining about it. He's reaping the harvest of his own sowing. You said he is reaping the harvest of his own sowing~ I got no.1 reputation among the staff! [That's me]
no.1 for the reputation! The first in brand reputation among staff. Why are you keep on saying brand reputation lol [Self proclaimed]
First in staff reputation. He's the annoying one, the annoying one. He is an annoying one~ It's my first time speaking in this show and they are saying I'm an annoying one. [(Joking) Chill] Anyways, the MONBEBEs love the stage outfits. [Approved] [For the stage, despite being pinched, or touched by the cold stuff on bare skin, or having a hard time] [MONSTA X works hard] Oh this one. [Swoosh (The banner falling because of the strong wind)] [Stands up]
Oh no!! Don't you think it's better for us to take it off by now? [Kihyun & Minhyuk trying to take it off themselves] No wonder he got the first in staff reputation! [The bright self-proclaimed no.1 in staff reputation] [Subscribe & like] [Best Comeback Interview - the reviewing session / The Legendary Memes of MONSTA X] [The meme of Jooheon]
Claps!!! [The automatic clapping] [The hero of claps] It's so famous. We've prepared a lot of claps. Here's an eater clap. You make your palms like Wong Fei-hung like this. [An eater clap] [They are following obediently] [Boom]
There are acupuncture points for heart and lungs here, so this clap improves the heart-lung function. [Great] And the fans will have better health by doing the healthy claps like this. [Worried about the health of his fans]
That's not how you do the claps. Everyone, how do you do the claps? Claps!!! [Boom] [Amazed] [The original clap]
Claps!!! [Admiration] I thought he was the Bao Zheng for a second. [Proud] [Burst into laughters]
Bao Zheng lol Bao Zheng lol [The more you think about Bao Zheng, it gets funnier] I see you like Bao Zheng. You must have read a lot of books like Romance of the three kingdoms or Water Margin. [According to Minhyun, Kihyun loves the intellectual jokes] Other members, do you have any other kind of claps that you want to try? [Avoiding 1]
We can't beat Jooheon anyway. [Avoiding 2]
We don't really do something after Jooheon. [Proud] [Avoiding 3]
I don't really want to do it as well. There's another legendary meme. I thought to myself the background was so familiar. This is.. [That is..!] Jooheon's church lol [Jooheon's meme / having a dance break at the church] I've never seen anyone having a dance break at the church. [And he did a high-class dance break] He does so many stuff at the church. [We can't believe it's at the church with him naturally bringing out the cheers from the audience] What's is going on here? [Christian music]
I've started doing music with CCM and that was the stage I've been performing since I was 3 years old. Let's give him a round of applause. Jooheon has now become an international, global pop artist. [Bowing (Thank you CCM)] And there's this meme [The meme of Shownu saying that he is like a fool that is not easy to deal with] [I know what that is]
- Oh~
- What is that? lol [What is that..?] [The meme of Shownu / he is like a fool that is not easy to deal with] [He just got it] Like a fool? It's like he is a fool but he looks not easy to deal with somehow. [Haha..] Oh I'm crying now lol [It's funny for him too] Because Shownu said [A question from his fan]
For the question 'Please tell us a show that you looked cool!' He answered 'I always look like a fool'. And after seeing that one of the fans said, but he's not easy to deal with. [Not easy to manage (Right)] [NEW Shownu being a fool not easy to deal with.mp4] [Do you agree?] Yes, I'm thankful. What are you thankful for? At least they don't see me as a fool seriously. The corner of his mouths are turned up a bit, so it's saying I'm not going to fall for you so easily. I'm a bit awkward in smiling, so I can't smile just a bit. Oh~ So when I smile I look like a fool that is not easy to deal with.. So can I ask for a smile? [A smile that is not easy to deal with] [Shownu being proud of himself alone] He's really not easy to deal with! [Proud] [Subscribe & Like] It was hard for me to collect them since you had a lot of promotions. I.M, has Im Changkyun as his real name. You got your inspiration from your family name Im, and named yourself I.M [The meme of I.M]
[Question: Who is this?] [Question: OK... Hi Changkyun] [Question: But Who is that?] The person mistook it as saying 'I am Changkyun." [Im has dual meaning, the family name 'Im' and 'I am'] When you met Barbara Palvin, you said "I'm I.M", and Barbara was like, "I am I am? Okay~" [You're right] and she added her kiss at the end. [Mwah] [Pfft] That was almost like 5 years ago. [Amazed]
Up until what year's time have you researched about us? And you cry a lot. [The one who cries a lot] At a concert, I.M was like [Ready to do the I.M impression] [Almost crying]
"I have real older brothers now.." [Laughs] [Runs away] All of a sudden! Hyungwon cried along with him as well. [Embarrassed] I still can remember that. Did you cry after I.M said that? [Awkward]
Yeah.. Why did you cry with him, Hyungwon? Well, I.M doesn't really cry often, but he was sobbing, and to be honest, it's not easy to say that others are like your real older brothers, and he said that he now has real brothers with him, and I was touched. It is touching. All of you are of F type, in your MBTI types! [A feature of F types]
You all have empathic ability. ... My MBTI type is CUTE. ... Okay. [Out of nowhere?] [Aha]
Oh it's CUTE~ Yeah, none of them got it. [Blinking] Everyone, MBTI of I.M is [According to Changkyun, 'My MBTI is CUTE'] MONSTA X members are so warm to their fans, MONBEBEs [They are a byword for sweetness]
and have a lot of moments of being Choi Soo-jong (a Korean actor known as a devoted husband) so they are called MON Soo-jong X. [A meme of Kihyun / Kihyun when he was ahead of himself at a fan signing event] [I'm getting married..] [With me?] Out of nowhere. "You mean.. with me?" [With me..?] [No, with my would-be husband;;] His face looks so cheeky here. "With me?" I mean, there are many fans who make jokes. [An example of a joke]
"I'm going to the ward office tomorrow." Kihyun: Why? [An example of a joke]
"To go get our marriage registration." Oh, oh So I was expecting it to be a joke like that, [Awkward]
but she was talking about her real husband.. lol [Aha..]
She was getting married for real. And what did this fan say after that? She just laughed a lot. [Well]
In front of me.. [Jooheon running out suddenly] [(He took the tissues) grasp] [And he meant to give it to Jaejae..] Oh am I sweating now? [Noisy] [Jaejae wiping her sweat thanks to Jooheon] PD: Drink some water, everyone. [Loud] [Minhyuk getting an unopened water bottle quickly] [Kihyun picking up Jaejae's water bottle] [A peculiar spectacle] Wait a minute. It looks like someone has been drinking with it though? [It's really absurd] Our Joohoney honey is so sweet seriously~ [He's finally drinking water now] [Subscribe & like] [Best Comeback Interview, a preparation section - MMTG GAYO with MONSTA X] Minhyuk is doing the MC for Inkigayo right?

You didn't just say MMTG haha Where GAYO? [The required line for the MC in Inkigayo] MMTG GAYO. [Amazed] You are doing great~ [This is just the basic] [Minhyuk really laughs like this in Inkigayo] [Oh, right]
I heard there's a boyband that is having their comeback this week! There are a lot of amazing bands but there's my favorite band among them all. [Shaking] Do you know which one? Wait, wait, wait! [A clue please] [Whisper]
Are you talking about the one that just had their debut in US? [Nods/ surprised]
MONSTA X? [Proud] [Proud/ that's a common sense] [Coming soon, the first place nominee MONSTA X] [Excited]
Now! Shownu, about the new album, what did you say again? A high-class pork cutlet. [What..?] [A high-class pork cutlet] [Startled]
What does it mean? [Nods]
There's a (valid) reason. [Curiosity explodes] A high-class pork cutlet (special) is my favorite food, that's why. [Valid] Then, do an acrostic poem with a high-class pork cutlet. It's not easy to do an acrostic poem with 5 syllables! Of course~ Should we give him some time to think? [Confidence]
I will do it right away. [Awe] [Excited]
Shownu really is different! 'Go' [This is nothing]
Goguma (sweet potato). [Admiration]
Oh? [He's really great] 'Geub' Geub-sik (meal service). [Huh?] [Confused]
Sweet potato meal service..? I can tell it's not going to work.. Oh, oh, oh, I have a headache.. [Pounding headache] 'Don' 'Donburi' [Mumbling]
Isn't he just saying anything that comes to his mind.. [He is chill] 'Ga' Catallena (?) [Catallena: ????] Out of nowhere..? [Wow]
Did he just give it a twist? [He just reminded us of an old senior!] [No big deal (This is just a basic)] I am excited about how he will come up with an end. One two three~! 'Seu' I love 'Steak'. [Wow..] [Oh...] We're so lost. (It means) everything that he mentioned! [He loves them so much] Wait, everything was food [Question]
except for "Catallena", what was it about..? I couldn't think of any food that starts with 'Ga'. [Smart]
Carbonara. [Oh..!] So Minhyuk, can you tell us about your new song? Jooheon will do it with a freestyle rapping. Show us~ 'FANTASIA,' our new song, is about "Open up your own world!" It's a cool song with a message like that. [Perfect] [Trying to pull of a reaction that went too far / going down] [Turning away from him] I heard there's a killing part in the song! Of course, there is~ [I.M & Hyungwon & Jooheon/ hehe] They will show us their killing parts~ [(Excitement) Great] I think my killing part is! You are being rude (?). [Come on..!]
Stand up and do it with the dance moves. [Got it] [Shaking]
Oh, the MC just..! [(Just a joke) hehe] So I will do our part Let me do this, as a killing part. [Admiration] [Hehe] I really like it when Jooheon scratches his voice when he raps. Like this lol [Wow] After Jooheon does the rapping at a high voice tone, I.M would come out with a low tone. [It seems she was very impressed..] I'm really touched really.. [Thank you] Please continue working as an MC~ Okay! So the visual of the band, Hyungwon will show us a new part! You are having a hair like a Yorkshire Terrier today. hehe [Lovely Yoki] Yeah, so for me all our parts are cool but there's this dance break. [Oh..] There's a dance where I get hit by the strong wind. [Hyungwon ver. The dance move getting hit by the strong wind] [Stands up]
Wait, wait.. [(Noisy) Upset] Why? What? He just packed a suitcase. Just break it for once please. Huh.. I will break it (?). Okay.. [Hyungwon, who seems to be very determined] [Powerful] [Flapping] [Looking closely] [MONBEBE are you watching?] [The powerful me..] [Satisfied]
Yeah, this is it. [Stands up] [(Disapprove) Come on..] [Upset]
I think Hyungwon needs more practice. Why, why? What did you not like about the dance? [Tell me]
What did you not like about it? He is (just) not powerful! [Still?] [Poor man..] May I do it one more time? [Loud] HIPHOP!!!!!!! [Jooheon feeling the beat for a while] [Let me see] [Powerful] [Dududududu] [Plod] [Thud] [Shrink] [Spread] [Landing] [Shaking] [Passion] [Why is he dancing so hard lol] [Hyungwon, did you see that?] [Cool wave] [And the two feet with angles] [Chill]

Is that part of the choreography? [Can't finish his words]
That was (Not part of the choreography) [Plunk down] [M..] Come back!!!! [Bursting into laughters] [Sad]
I didn't know I was going to fall.. You just rocked the stage;;; [Not a big deal] He became so haggard (after working so hard). [Minhyuk bringing the lint roller] [Working on it] [The older brothers taking off the dirt off the clothes] [Touched]
That was a cool performance! Let us give a round of applause for I.M! [Thank you hehe] I am really excited about the new song of MONSTA X, 'FANTASIA' that has various parts. Do you have any killing part, Minhyuk? [So she started learning the dance moves in the new song] You just have to roll when it goes FANTASIA. [Like this?] [Correct] [Ready] [The two MCs working in perfect harmony] [Such a FANTASIA..] Where Jaejae is standing is the center of the stage. [The performance that can't be disapproved] I think I just did the part perfectly? (Of course) that was perfect. [Nods] So we just had a time to explore about the MONSTA X's new song FANTASIA in a detailed way. How did you like it? Your feeling of joining as a special MC. [Joke]
Yeah, this seems to be the last episode ^^ How did you like MMTG GAYO, MONSTA X? Meeting Jaejae before having a comeback, I think we will be able to have good promotion period with good energy that we received today.
