[Friday Variety Roundup] I Live Alone, Youn's Kitchen Season 2

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "From an exclusive van to a translator"…'I Live Alone' Kim Yeon Koung receives special treatment in China

1. [+4568, -61] Instead of giving her a translator, I wish she had an exclusive manager. I felt bad because of the food delivery and the coldness ㅠㅠ (t/n: the boiler in her apartment keeps malfunctioning and she's so cold that she wears her padding jacket inside her apartment)

2. [+4336, -68] Special treatment my ass.. the translator is hella frustrating.. she's one of the top players in the world but because her boiler is broken, she couldn't shower nor make food what is up with that ㅋㅋ her translator behaves as if she's her friend, was she provided to her by China, how is a sports translator like that ㅋ first time seeing something like that and she's a one of the world-class players 

3. [+3443, -32] She showered with cold water in that cold weather;;; 

4. [+3182, -38] Making the athlete suffer because of the cold... at least, turn the boiler on well for her 

5. [+1806, -52] Her personality is good and her skills are good 

6. [+1070, -10] They say the translator is nice but she doesn't seem nice.. because Kim Yeon Koung is a bit short-tempered, she makes it obvious that she's annoyed when Kim Yeon Koung tells her something so whenever she has the opportunity, she talks back.. she sneakily teases her ㅠ.. When Kim Yeon Koung told her only cold water comes out, she said: "But you like cold water~" what the... If I was her, I would've asked for them to change translators right away.. Kim Yeon Koung isn't the type to not say anything so she always expresses things but she just seems to be bearing it and not saying anything.. 

7. [+1054, -28] The translator ㅡㅡ I get that she's nice but she's totally a pest... pests like that are all usually nice.. ah oh sweet potatoes my blood pressure . Kim Yeon Koung is a saint, if it was me, I would've already asked them to change translators 

Original Source (Sports Seoul via Naver): "Perfect harmony"...'Youn's Kitchen' no longer gets overwhelmed from the busy requests of the customers

1. [+8777, -385] Stop saying the portions are small ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's in Europe, they're tourists, and the prices are obviously expensive, the other restaurants they checked out and ate at had small portions too but they were actually more pricier? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They always talk about the globalization and gentrification of Korean cuisine but in actuality they always yap on about how expensive it is and how small the portions are but if they go to a high-quality restaurant and pay a lot for a steak that's the size of a baby's fist, they'll just suck it up and enjoy the meal 

2. [+6643, -294] Seriously this is something I always feel but I want to go there and mix the bibimbap for them ㅋ With bibimbap, you have to really mix it up and take a big bite out of it so that it's really yummy but they eat it as if it's a salad so I feel like they're not experiencing the feel charm of bibimbap so I always feel bad ㅋ

3. [+4367, -83] The baby mama who's wearing the sunglasses has a really refreshing smile, it remains in my memories because it's so pretty.. the baby is really cute too.. ㅎ

4. [+2449, -141] The result of hard work~~ of course ㅋㅋ

5. [+1897, -145] Obviously, this is already their nth episode ㅋㅋㅋ

Original Source (Sports DongA via Naver): Was it because of the PyeongChang Olympics opening ceremony…'Youn's Kitchen 2' ratings, drops slightly

1. [+605, -93] I think the opening ceremony had an impact~~ still it's a high figure

2. [+535, -67] The opening ceremony was really fun. Fantastic, it doesn't feel like a waste even though I pay to watch this channel. The opening ceremony was really well done.....

3. [+500, -134] It's becoming more and more frustrating. I do tune in but I do other things ㅋㅋ

4. [+628, -356] It's no longer a healing program. At some point, it started getting frustrating so I don't want to watch it anymore. By habit, I tuned in but then I realized what I did and changed the channel. Whether it's fun or not, the show is frustrating. The people who want to watch can continue to watch and the people who don't want to, don't need to. 

5. [+283, -45] It was fun up until episodes 1 and 2 but this season it feels too long and the content is all the same 

6. [+195, -28] Having experience from working at a restaurant, Youn's Kitchen is at the same level of playing house. They don't even have a lot of tables but get flustered and it's hella frustrating to watch them making only one serving portions, they barely had 13 customers in groups yesterday ..

[Friday Variety Roundup] I Live Alone, Youn's Kitchen

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): 'I Live Alone' Henry is all smiles after his sister tells him he looks like Kim Soo Hyun

1. [+2647, -19] "Alien guy" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㄱㄱㅋ I was wondering what she was talking about

2. [+2335, -80] Henry is also handsome and his sister kind of gives off the same vibes as BLACKPINK's Jennie. Henry family's superior DNA~

3. [+2068, -37] Honey really drips out of Henry's eyes whenever he looks at his sister 

4. [+1888, -41] His sister is so charming and her voice is so cute

5. [+1235, -59] She's like Amber ㅎㅎ

↪ [+227, -10] Same! As soon as I saw her, I thought she looked like Amber

6. [+407, -19] Henry's younger sister is glamorous and cute~

Original Source (OSEN via Naver): 'I Live Alone' Henry x Whitney, zero sense of reality 'there's no siblings like them'

1. [+1009, -32] His sister is pretty too

2. [+908, -8] While watching, I kept thinking this was a pair of siblings in a fantasy ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ these types of siblings isn't common

3. [+561, -12] Both of them are so cute~~^^

4. [+405, -8] Henry^^

5. [+321, -12] The Lau siblings are the best ♥♥

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): 'Youn's Kitchen 2' mixes up the kimchi pancake orders…Lee Seo Jin, Jung Yoo Mi, Park Seo Joon utterly confused

1. [+8826, -180] They should at least assign numbers to the table and then take orders... The German table waited way too long ㅠㅠㅠㅠ Me just watching, I was getting frustrated ㅠㅠㅠ You should share the orders that got cancelled too ㅠㅠ hing

2. [+7321, -291] I was getting really frustrated while watching.. I wish they would communicate more

3. [+5492, -305] So fucking frustrating.. sigh

4. [+4765, -108] It's annoying.. ㅠㅠ

5. [+4119, -301] Fucking frustrating 

6. [+3003, -29] Why do they only flip two kimchi pancakes at a time? If the orders are backed up, they can flip 4 at a time.. It's driving me nuts because of how frustrating it is.

7. [+2354, -47] Did you edit it this way so that the viewers can get stressed?

8. [+2324, -37] Even if it's a reality tv show, it's not even in Korea, the production crew and staff should at least help them out. These types of situations aren't even fun, it's just frustrating

9. [+2344, -98] Can't they catch the drift if they see an empty table? The German table even ordered first

10. [+2223, -25] The frustrating thing is they can just flip all the kimchi pancakes together and fry the eggs all at once in the fry pan with 4 holes but why do they only make one order at a time? Creating a mess~ ㅠㅠ

Original Source (My Daily via Naver): 'I Live Alone' Kian84, webtoon drops in the rankings…Hope he finds his motivation again

He was ranked first in the Wednesday webtoon rankings for 4 years consecutively but then he was recently knocked off and his rank fell :/ But he said that the thing that's more dangerous than your rank falling is getting used to that feeling... 

1. [+1791, -85] Kian's in first place right now, fighting!

2. [+1681, -44] The pain of writer's block..

3. [+1259, -78] I feel bad ㅜㅜ

4. [+1089, -59] He's a matchless character ㅋㅋ Stay strong Kian

5. [+986, -112] The thing about life is that if you gain something, you also lose something. Let's not feel dejected 

6. [+311, -14] There are times when people are on the top and times where they fall~ Going through a crisis is an opportunity!...Can we even call it a crisis~? Other artists have a hard time even getting to third place but he was ranked 1st for 4 years, that's amazing~.. You did well even up until now. Since you're in a daze, just don't think about anything and take a break. When you properly take a break, an idea will come to you. Go visit Busan with Si Eon~ 

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "I'll find my motivation"…'I Live Alone' Kian84, the pain of writer's block people don't know about

1. [+5575, -195] Kian's charm is that you don't know where he'll run off to ㅋㅋ It was so funny when he told Lee Si Eon to get an enema treatment ㅋㅋ

2. [+4756, -139] Both Kian and Narae were funny in today's episode, Narae's sleep consultation was really useful and I felt bad for Kian cause of his writer's block.

3. [+4661, -544] They're weirdly charming ~~ At first he was really unlikeable but it's really cool how much he's dedicated in his work, he's the type that makes a girl want to take care of him ㅎㅎ

4. [+2832, -117]  Fighting ^^

5. [+1008, -54] Whenever Hye Jin unni says "Narae-ah~, Narae-ah~", it's so~~sweet, she's Han Da Jung~ (t/n: 다정, da jung in Korean means tender, warm-hearted)  

6. [+893, -52] He doesn't seem like a person who's fake 

7. [+925, -107] Is Kian getting more and more handsome or are we seeing him as handsome now cause we're seeing him so often? Something about him is now ㅎㅎㅎ

5. [+3452, -211] It is indeed fun to watch 

6. [공감1463비공감114] This made me really see Park Seo Joon in a different light. He's not just a celebrity, he's a well-rounded youth

7. [+1472, -124] Casting Park Seo Joon was God's work.. Park Seo Joon is cool... 

8. [+1221, -78] Seriously, they don't have a specific plot but you seriously still get pulled in.... your heart feels comfy when you watch it ㅠㅠㅠ

1. [+5024, -94] Wow.. Isn't Park Seo Joon really good at Spanish even though he's only studied it for a short time? Just like the captions say, he doesn't carelessly use his time and is highly skilled! When he was working out near the sea, I really thought it was a CF ㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+3963, -90] What is it that Park Seo Joon can't do.. He's good at working, he's good at speaking Spanish, and seeing him working out before going to work looks like a scene for a photoshoot ㅠ he's so cool

3. [+3742, -53] I was proud seeing the customers becoming fans of the japchae, bibimbop, and sweet and sour chicken... Director Lee is always right when creating a new menu.. ㅋ

Original Source (TV Report via Naver): Lee Pil Mo "Didn't realize my actions after showering would look that sexual hahaha" 

1. [+8904, -90] Yesterday's story perfectly showed the charms of 'I Live Alone'. If you live alone, of course you don't talk. If you're home alone, it's possible for you to not talk the entire day unless you get a phone call

2. [+6208, -59] It was really funny because they put a robot/AI concept and captions on his easygoing personality ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+5146, -58] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ made the person watching embarrassed ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it was too real

4. [+4286, -51] Real humanity ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+3772, -74] He does seem handsome ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+1182, -6] If it wasn't a filming, I don't think he would've been wearing underwear ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+1103, -10] He didn't seem like he was trying to show anything off... I liked it because it just looks like his real self 

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "Ended up being a famous Korean actor"..Spain is also swept away by Youn's Kitchen's popularity

1. [+12884, -724] When that girl came with her boyfriend and said aren't Koreans always handsome after she saw Lee Seo Jin and Park Seo Joon, I felt proud for no reason. For a time, when Gangnam Style hit daebak, people said that they thought all Koreans would look like Psy.. ㅋ

2. [+8403, -176] Youn's Kitchen is amazing

3. [+6663, -170] Youn's Kitchen is so good

4. [+6341, -160] You feel healed and even more healed after watching the show

5. [+2037, -136] From now on, don't go on vacation to that town.. Let's keep the illusion alive that all Korean men are handsome. If you really want to go, be mindful and act like you're Chinese or Japanese, understand? 

↪ [+327, -8] ㅋㅋㅋ

↪ [+170, -6] Sumimasen;;; (t/n: "Excuse me" in Japanaese)

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "We support all the job seekers"…The truth 'Infinite Challenge' delivered during the new year

1. [+1060, -49] I really liked how they didn't just show the process from the perspective of an applicant but also showed the perspective of the interviewers, which is really informative. To all of the job applicants, I support you and your 2018! Fighting!

2. [+865, -51] I really like MuDo for always supporting people~

3. [+841, -43] I really like the Se Ho-Se Hyung maknae line

4. [+588, -39] Because of MuDo, Saturday's aren't lonely^^♥

5. [+410, -34] Ah this was a throwback

6. [+164, -16] Jung Jun Ha and Park Myung Soo seem like they're stuck in a rut of blaming their older age, show us that you're working hard like Yoo Jae Suk

7. [+178, -31] If Park Myung Soo, Jung Jun Ha, and HaHa don't want to do this anymore, then they should just leave now 

↪ [+59, -3] They make it so obvious that they don't want to do it ㅋ

↪ [+35, -3] They're really hella boring 

8. [+155, -24] Just replace Park Myung Soo, Jung Jun Ha, and HaHa~~ They have no drive because they're so full of it now and they can't even fit in well..
