One fine afternoon,
One fine afternoon, on a trinquil island of Sebitseom
Hey!
Hey! It's f**king hot!
(Even this f**king summer heat can't stop her!) - Anyway I gotta do this!
(What brings her here today?)
'Mercedes-EQ' You nahm sayin'?
🎉Joy to the world, Mercedes-Benz Sponsorship has come🎉
I'm the model of the day(?)
See how hard I'm trying?
Plz hire me as your model! (Born ready to be a model♥)
[Show!terview Special Edition(?) Jessi's EQA review time!]
OK, first off!
(Jessi's cup of tea) I love its design and size!
It'll be perfect for driving around Seoul city!
Its size is,
Perfect! (Right up my alley..❤)
(Immersed) Mercedes-EQ Baby!
Come this way!
First off, let me open the trunk!
*Hesitating*
(How should I open it...?)
[Staff: Use your foot!]
Woah! High-technology(?)
*OOF* Woah! High-technology(?)
Touch it lightly with your foot!
(Tada★)
'Key-less go package' senses your foot and enables you to open it easily and conveniently!
First off, it has a spacious trunk!
It's big enough for a man to fit it(?)
And even luggages and stuff (Right up Jessi's alley❤)
(Let's check out the inside!)
Whoaaaa!
Let me start the engine!
(Starting the engine)
It doesn't make any noise while starting the engine!
(Awes) Wow!
This car is fantabulous!
Okay, first off
Let me show you what Mercedes-Benz EQA really worked on their ass off(?)
You can check the air quality of inside/outside the car in real time!
You can check it out through 'digital cockpit'
*Hurray! EQ Technology*
Can I take one?
(No... way... lol)
And the inside,
Though it looks like a small SUV from the outside, but it's actually very spacious inside!
(Lemme see..)
*Buzzing*
Let's feel
How comfortable it is!
It is! COMFY!
This car literally has everything...♥
It's sooo comfy... Just want to get some sleep now...
*Opens*
*Huh?*
(This guy is trying to get in the car..?) *Hello*
Who are you? lol (Getting in smoothly)
*Out of the blue* Hi, Benz!
Play 'DRIVE' of Jungyup!
*Playing the music off the bat*
Wuuut? Cooool!
You came here to sing?
I've wanted to sing this song on Show!terview
In the Benz! (Can't believe that I got to listen to Jungyup's song live in the car!)
[DRIVE - Jungyup] ♪ In the distant sky ♪
♪ A sunset is widely spreading ♪
*Groovy* ♪ I feel like I'm getting more reddish than it is ♪
♪ Everything is getting dark outside the window ♪
['Drive' Live in EQA]
(It's making me wanna go on a drive right now!<3)
Altogether! With Jessi!
(Hyped) With me?!
♪ Holding onto my trembling heart ♪
♪ Shall we run ♪
How come you sing in falsetto so smoothly this early in the morning? *Let's go!*
♪ Wherever you are ♪
♪ Just drive me ♪
♪ Let me put my hands on the stopped steering wheel ♪
*Super excited*
*Soft yet exciting*
(Beat the heat with 'DRIVE' of Jungyup~*)
*WooooW*
This song goes perfectly with this car!
(THX❤)
I mean it! And!
How can he sing in falsetto so smoothly?
(With Mr.Smooth-falsetto Jungyup, let's drive! ) *Vroom*
[Show!terviewwwwww]
[Show!terviewwwwww with Jessi]
Ohmagawd! Man, harmonize it!
Today's Show!terview is held in Sebitseom in Banpo
Where Cafe Mercedes-EQ is located!
High, Q!
KAY!
*smiling* KAY!
LOL / (Calm)
Oh, he doesn't even flinch!
(Awky) But oppa is...
Why were you here by the way?
- While we were dying of the heat earlier! - Do you know how much I was eager to be outside?
I'm a huge fan of Benz!
*Bummer* (Limited space lol)
Anyway, we are at the Cafe Mercedes-EQ today!
Are you skipping my introduction or something?
Not your turn yet!
Like I’ve been here forever...
They only can hear your voice
Rly? I was controlling the expression on your face for nothing...
Today's guest on Show!terview!
Verrry handsome!
He's married tho! *Handsome married man*
Master at sweet melodies!
Jangyup(?) is joining us today!
JANGyup? lol
*Oops* JUNGyup is here! lolol
K, I'm leaving!
(Almost blacked out from the unprecedented(?) introduction)
*Dizzy*
You know, it says 'Master at sweet melodies' on the cue card (*Master=Jangin in Korean)
She must've mixed 'Master' up with 'Jungyup' (*Master=Jangin in Korean)
Hi, I'm a singer of 'Nothing Better'
I'm JANG-yup!
*So witty*
You have so many good songs besides Nothing Better!
Come on! Bey(?) confident, oppa!
(Wat da lol)
K, I'll be like 'Bye(?) confident'
*Pun* You should say goodbye to confident...
First off, I have a question!
What brings you to Show!terview today?
R u a fan of me?
Yes I am
I insisted I'd come out on Showterview!
*Mannn* I insisted I'd come out on Showterview!
Why do all of my guests say so 😚 *So honored/Blushes*
You know, I rarely come out for TV shows.
But it occured to me that I should connect with the public more often as a pop artist,
That's why I came to meet Jessi who's one of the best hosts!
But as far as I know,
You came here to gain more followers...
*Caught off guard*
- That's embarrassing - Seriously?
I feel caught off guard
*Here comes a proof(?)*
For the first time in Show!terview history,
I brought a tablet PC!
First off, OK
Q. When did you create the account?
About...
5 days ago
*What a newborn*
I just wanted to communicate with my fans through various channels
And share lots of things with them
It's been 5 days!
(Scrolling down)
Why so many pictures? lol
Hold on, hold on! (Too many photos for 5 days lolol)
Hey, they normally upload 1-2 posts for 5 days
(Plenty of photos)
I'm trying hard...
It's been only 5 days
And you have 39 posts? (8 posts a day)
(Master at IG) If you have similar photos,
*Solution* You can upload up to 10 of them in a single post
But Jessi,
Let me explain it to you (He did it with a purpose(?))
You may assume he just uploaded several photos of him in the same shirt,
But as you may have noticed, three posts form a line
He definitely tried to match the colors of the pictures!
(Purple line)
Sunbae-nim...?
(Awky)
You don't seem to understand this...
(Green line)
Isn't it cool tho?
But there are many people like you out there!
Like those who want a coordination on their feed!
Blue...
Blue... Brown...
Blue... Brown... Black...
Until when are you gonna do this?
(Oops)
- As much as possible... - It won't last long tho!
- Let's take a look at the one in blue! - Which one?
Look at the hashtag
#browneyedSOUL #madecaSSOL
(Dad jokes...)
I kind of like rhyming words...
Jessi, as one of the hottest IG influencer
Since he's an IG rookie,
I'm an IG maknae!
Q. What's your take on his IG?
I've done that(?) in the beginning, cuz I was excited!
Done that? lol
(Diagnosed as 'Uploader full of excitement')
*Asking for advice* What should I do now?
Just be yourself!
From my perspective, you gotta do whatever you want to do!
You'll have to stop this in the near future!
*Jessi's prescription* It won't last long anyway, so just do what you want now
I'd like to say something to grab his attention...
What..?
*Hesitating* I usually don't let this out...
If Jessi tag you on her IG,
You'll get about 20 thousand followers!
O RLY?
(I'm begging you...)
(IG specialist) (Her patient...?)
Well, first off
Let's take a photo later on
I rarely turn my chair, but I couldn't resist 20 thousand..
*I'll do my best! Lesss gooo!*
[B.E.S Interview]
Let's move on to the next segment, let's explore Brown Eyed Soul!
Brown Eyed Soul~♬
As you know, he is such a self-explanatory top artist
One of the best vocalists in Korea!
And the leader of Brown Eyed Soul!
- Correct? - Yes, correct...
Oh, you can help yourself :)
*Gulping*
Mercedes-Benz has launched a beverage! [Ad time all of a sudden]
(Suddenly lol)
It's available only here throughout the country!
'Mercedes-EQ Eco Sparkling' available only in this cafe!
*Tasting time*
It's like milky but it's sweet!
Do I have to return this bottle or can I take it home?
Ohh can I take it home?
How petty you taking this home!
(You can't take the car... but two empty bottles instead...)
Apparently, it's good for your throat hole(?)
Good for throat hole(?)
*Back to business* So, you are the leader of Brown Eyed Soul?
Being a leader in this group actually doesn't have any special meaning
I became the leader just bc I'm the eldest one!
So the members asked me to be the leader as a kind of token of respect
Brown Eyed Soul, man! When I was little...
All the *Gyopos I know sang this song in the singing room! (*Korean born and raised abroad)
- Oh, did they? (Happy) - Though they're singing out of tune
*Go-to song in the singing room*
B.E.S was the best in '2000s
Brown Eyed Soul was super popular
Beyond Korea! Among Gyopos!
(Super hyped) In the K-town, where many Gyopos live
Brown Eyed Soul!
Brown Eyed Soul! DASS IT!
(This K-soul legend is beloved even in the birthplace of R&B)
Q. What is the background for Brown Eyed Sould being created?
Back then, Naul was in Brown Eyes
But he wanted to form a quartet from before
He listened to 'Boyz II Men' growing up
(So nice)
I actually entered the label to be a solo artist at first
And I came to meet Youngjoon and Seonghoon there who joined the lable through their mutual friends
So technically, B.E.S consists of the ones selected by Naul
Naul must've thought you are the best singers!
I think it's more about their colors, than being a good singer
LiKe!
LiKe, yO knoww,
LiKe, yO knoww, it cAtchEs yOur eaRs huh?
(Their music is LiKe, yO knoww, cAtchEs yOur eaRs)
They have their unique color that no one can copy or imitate
By the way, were you in the same label with Brown Eyed Girls back then?
No, the CEOs of each company were familiar with each other
Oh, I thought you were from the same label bc your names are similar!
I'm familar with them now, but I wasn't back then
Can I ask you a question?
*NOPE*
Talk to me first
If any connections with The Black Eyed Peas...
Nooo connections at all!
(Nah?)
It has nothing to do with The Black Eyed Peas
Stop the meaningless questions!
I agree with her
I was wondering if your boss is familiar with their boss...
*You so hilarious*
Q. Did you watch recently where Naul and Youngjoon appeared?
I did!
Have you listened to the song Youngjoon and Naul made?
Of course! You know, it's the talk of the town,
It comes out every time I turn on the TV
So I just changed the channel 😗
*Wink*
Why did you do that lol
Cuz I wasn't involved ;]
That's why you hurriedly created the account?
(LOLOL)
Just kidding, I reall love that song 'Only You'
♪ Of all people ♪
(All of a sudden?!)
♪ Of all people who know me ♪
♪ Who else would smile at me like that ♪
*Proud of himself*
- Did you... ask him to sing? - No lol
*Doing well on my own*
I was surprised too
*He's the best as expected* (Encore)
I have my favorite song out of all the Brown Eyed Soul's
I can't think of the title now
(Which one?)
*Trying to jog the memory*
Oh my gosh, it was my go-fak(?) song
Did you just swear...? (*'Go-to song' sounds similar to a cuss word in Korean lol)
Name any of your songs!
[My everthing]
[I hope]
No, no, no
[Did We Really Love]
YAH THATS IT!
- Was that your voice? - Right
*Can't believe I met the one with THE voice*
♪ Maybe I liked you ♪
♪ Maybe I really cherished you ♪
Those are my lines :)
I thought he would be reluctant to use his vocal
Right, I rarely sing on variety shows...
But like Jessi said earlier...
Having 20 thousand new followers is on my mind...
(Monster that IG gave a Birth(?))
- I'm motivated by that - Oh, so you managed to do it
Are you taking advantage of me?
(Just kidding)
Now that the members appeared on
Some people are assuming that B.E.S will come back soon as a whole
Q. When are you coming back as a whole group of Brown Eyed Soul?
We'd love to come back but,
We used to put high priority on concerts rather than shows
But due to the current situation, we are not free to hold a concert
But I'll be happy to come back as a whole when we have a chance :)
And you gotta do it now!
I know
Because the Soul music in Korea wouldn't have developed this much if it wasn't for Brown Eyed Soul
*Moved*
Don't get let down(?) Because you are a legend!
I'm cool except when I'm on IG
*No worries* Let me help you with it!
Please subtitle his ID, ok?
Look, this is my ID!
*Look it up 'Jungyup'*
*Awky*
[Singing Lesson]
Hey.. you know what...
I listened to his falsetto earlier in the car
He has crazy falsetto!
Pal-sse-lo?
Oh, Falsetto?
(Like this) - Oh, falsetto? (in Korean)
Yah falsetto! (in Korean)
*Zero-lingual* I can't speak English nor Korean now. Wat da heck is wrong with me?
(Come on lol)
But I can sing in falsetto intermittently
WHY IS THAT?
(All of a sudden..?)
It's hard for me! *Difficult*
I'm bad at singing in falsetto!
Let me ask you...
IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF SMOKING!
*Don't get me wrong*
I quit smoking
I mean, quit smoking regular cigarettes!
But listen up!
*Culture shock*
Speaking of which, Jessi's vocal skill is sometimes overshadowed by her great performance or rapping skills
Q. What's you take on Jessi as a vocalist?
Well, I personally...
Like they say she has a 'husky voice', it's one of Jessi's charms
(Flattered)
Tbh, before coming here
I though if Jessi tries...
*Nervous*
Singing 'Nothing Better'
If she sings 'Nothing Better'
I'd be so cool
(Singing Jungyup's song...?)
In Jessi style!
Hold onnnn!
Why are you suddenly telling me to do it as fak?
Look at me when you swear
*Jessi is polite when swearing*
Cuz I'm very close to her
(LOL) I can't say so to you
Now I see why they love Jessi so much
How should I start?
♪ Nothing better ♪
♪ Nothing better than you~♥ ♪
♪ Than you~♥ ♪
*WOW* (P/N: I'm dying😭)
But the thing is,
Falsetto is my weakness
*Aha*
*OMG* But I made it today
(Did a good job Jessi❤)
OK. Please show us how the topdog(?) sings 'Nothing Better'
Sure! Jessi's wish is my command!
Ready to be fall in love with
*Teehee*
♪ I remember your face on the day you came to me ♪
♪ My heart had remained broken before you came ♪
(Gotta record this)

*Haha*
What's your IG again?
Oooh in this moment! He just gained 20 thousand!
(This is the moment I've dreamed of..!)
(Can't take off his eyes)
*Politely as heck*
I used a filter app to make it fun! [Uploaded]
[On Jessi's IG Stories]
*Luv it*
⭐Congrats! Jungyup got into Jessi's IG feed!⭐
[Metdol Interview]
The next segment is,
When you think of Jungyup, he's well known for his unique singing style!
So called, "Metdol(millstone) singing style"
(Starting the millstone)
I do this
(So called Flute singing style)
Everyone has their own singing style
Especially on Showterview...
Why do you think I'm up?
I dunno..lol
Why did he stand up?
(Oohhh)
(Here comes a real Metdol!)
(We prepared this only for you, Jungyup:])
(What a historic meeting between Jungyup and Metdol)
(I almost burst into tears)
You need some beans to grind?
- Yeah, you might as well give me some beas - Oh, do you have beans?
*LMAOOO*
(Why not? Here come beans!)
See? Showterview has a great sense of humor!
I take this is why people love this show
Man, they even had beans soaked in water in advance
*Soaked beans from the day before the shooting*
They are all about Metdol!
[Metdol Live]
[One Last Cry - Brian Mcknight]
(Now you're watching the very first Metdol Live in Jungyup's career history)
♪ All alone ♪
♪ Wishing all my feeling was gone ♪
♪ I gave my best to you ♪
Why so sad suddenly? 😭
*What a memey(?) just came out* Why so sad suddenly? 😭
[Ending Scene]
Your fans must want to know if you will drop a new album before the end of this year
I dropped in this spring and in the summer
For those who are waiting for my new album, I have a plan to drop new ones for fall and winter
But I gotta say, now you HAVE TO!
Because Jungyup oppa's music is timeless! It won't fade away!
(Touched) - You know what I mean? - That's so encouraging
So I hope you'll be singing for us until the end
Got it! Probably thanks to Jessi...
If I gain 20 thousand followers...
(Oops) *Heartwarming mood broke down in a flash*
Oppa, wait!
*L🤣L*
*Just kidding* For the first time in Show!terview history,
He is the first guest who came for promoting his IG
Here's my ID 😉
But seriously, I'm so grateful that he came out for us
I just want to be honest
How was I today?
I didn't know you would be so sweet and gentle like this
But I usually look fierce from the edited one
*Jessi so sad😭*
They usually edit out the part where Jessi say something sweet
Those dudes are freaking mean!
I'm actually a nice person (Plz tell them off😥)
Guys, you shouldn't be like this!
Today, I found how sweet and nice she is
And figured out why she is beloved so much
Thank you for your time today
(Thank you)
He surely took adavantage of me today,
*LMAOO*
We'll look forward to your new songs
Don't hide yourself(?) anymore! Come out and sing lots of good songs for us please!♥
Anyway, please give it up for Jungyup!
[Thank you Jungyup for the good time. It was such a fun with you❤]
