0:05People are curious about who we are.
0:08Gosh, San!
0:09I'm giving my opinions here.
0:11How about "WooSan's Go Nine or Go Big" for our channel name?
0:14Please send lots of love. We'll do our best.
0:16[Go Nine or Go Big]
0:18[Planning meeting]
0:20[Awkward silence]
0:21[Reading the room]
0:24Hello, we're Wooyoung and San.
0:25Hello.
0:26[First greeting of newbie YouTubers] For me, because it's so fun.
0:31[Q. Why did you guys start a YouTube channel?] YouTube?
0:32Well, these days, the power of YouTube is
0:35enormous...
0:37I like making things
0:39like vlog and stuff.
0:41I really like
0:43making content.
0:44I thought
0:46if two people with good chemistry did
0:47lots of things
0:48we'd be able to make
0:50something people might like and laugh while watching
0:53Of course, all our members are close.
0:55But there's this level of closeness, right?
0:57I think we can't
0:58just ignore that.
0:59So...
1:01When Wooyoung first suggested this
1:04I just thought
1:06he'd do well
1:08[Just a guy who followed his friend] so I just followed him. For real.
1:09[Not happy] You're always like this...
1:11Just us being together is a content actually.
1:13- Whatever we do, it's a content. - True.
1:15I'm not passing the buck to Wooyoung.
1:18[A typical case of passing the buck] I thought, with Wooyoung, whatever we do, it's fun, so we'd be able to make lots of memories together.
1:24We even have a friendship tattoo.
1:25[Q. Can you show us?]
1:27I didn't shave my leg hair today...
1:29Do you shave your legs?
1:30I don't.
1:31I don't, either.
1:33It's like my last ounce of price.
1:35[Hairy pride]
1:37I shave everything else but my legs.
1:39[Boys' talk] I don't shave my legs often either because we don't wear shorts often.
1:42- I have too many scars on my legs. - Or how about we go
1:44and get hair removal for our first episode?
1:46Huh?
1:47If we're going to do something like that for the first episode
1:48we should shave our armpits or something.
1:51Our our philtrum.
1:52Ugh!
1:53- Should do our philtrum or something. - But we're not interested
1:55in protecting our images and stuff.
1:56[Rules: Don't try to protect your image] Don't protect your image.
1:58But San said he'd just keep staying serious
2:00and say nothing.
2:02Not true.
2:04I didn't say that.
2:05So guess what I said to this guy.
2:06"Hey, don't keep your mouth shut and just sit there again."
2:10But here's the thing.
2:11[Well, I'm listening] Here's the thing.
2:12Wooyoung is quite outstanding
2:14in this area.
2:15He's great on variety shows.
2:17[Q. You make people laugh on variety shows too, San]
2:19Me?
2:20[Only among members] When I'm with my members, I go crazy.
2:22For our channel to become famous
2:23this guy has to let go of his image. If he does
2:25this channel is bound to go viral.
2:26I guarantee you, for real.
2:28When I feel comfortable with the atmosphere
2:30I become more of myself I think.
2:31[He's shy at first] Right.
2:33I'll try my best to let go of my image...
2:36[Q. What if this channel flops?]
2:37It's because of this guy.
2:39It's because of this guy no matter what.
2:40[San's feeling lots of pressure] San's mom would agree that it's because of San.
2:45[First step: Come up with items] Well, I think that there's a concept at first.
2:51I talked about it with San too.
2:53We talked about
2:55what would be good.
2:56Then when you think about it
2:57and do market research
2:59what's selling the best these days?
3:03Me.
3:04Still haven't learned...
3:05[Swagger is trending] I have to keep him in check. Sometimes, he gets carried away when his ego starts growing.
3:12I have to stop him.
3:13But we shouldn't follow the trend.
3:15- We have to create one. - No.
3:16- We're not at that level yet. - Okay, got it.
3:19If I'm being honest with myself
3:20we have to follow it...
3:22That way, we can make this work...
3:23Once we're at the top level, we can create trends.
3:24When we have nothing
3:26if we say we're leading the trend
3:27that's just being cocky.
3:29Let's just follow them
3:30and once we reach a certain level
3:32- When we're at a certain level? Okay. - then we do it.
3:34[We're just civilians] We can create trends when we're at the same level as BLACKPINK or BTS.
3:37I think there might be our strengths.
3:39We have many foreign fans.
3:42Right, or...
3:43I think it'll be fun to learn a new language.
3:45- Learning a new language? - Yes.
3:46But really
3:48there are languages
3:50that we can easily encounter in our daily lives.
3:52Like Italian.
3:54Like shibaski.
3:55[Reading the room]
3:57Like "Wooyoung ski" or something...
3:58I mean, to do something like that
4:00we have to pick a theme
4:02we want to try.
4:04- Okay, you rascal. - Yeah...
4:06- That's what we need to do. - You rascal.
4:07For something like camping...
4:09Wooyoung, you rascal.
4:10[Doesn't care] If we go with camping as the theme
4:11everything else has to build off that.
4:13Got it.
4:17[This rascal] We can't use that, though.
4:22[Second step: Set a goal] - I hope we get lots of views. A goal? - Getting 500,000 views.
4:25When is the deadline?
4:27So how many tries do we get
4:28before we scrap it?
4:31How many tries?
4:32How many tries do we have?
4:34[Q. Nine tries]
4:35[Urgent] We have to do this like our lives depend on it.
4:37- We can't be just laughing here. - Then...
4:40We have to feel responsible here.
4:41Gosh, San!
4:44I'm giving my opinions here.
4:45[An anxious YouTuber] - I talked more here. - Okay, come up with something new.
4:49[Calm down again] So do we get to film nine episodes in total?
4:52Hey, out of nine tries
4:53at least one will go big.
4:54[Death flag] If none of them goes big
4:55and we only show ourselves working hard...
4:57Like only chopping firewood.
5:00Going "Hey, why isn't this work?"
5:02Within nine episodes...
5:03How about "WooSan's Go Nine or Go Big" for our channel name?
5:07Oh, it's actually good.
5:08Or we can
5:10reveal...
5:11Hey, "Go Nine or Go Big" is actually really good.
5:13We can start
5:14by revealing this.
5:15That we only have nine tries.
5:17We can ask them to save our channel.
5:18[Announcing it out loud] Today's our first try.
5:20First try!
5:21Second try! And nothing special for the title.
5:25- That sounds good. - For the last one, go with "9/9."
5:27That sounds good.
5:28And you know how we can upload a photo
5:30on the YouTube community section? If it doesn't go big
5:32upload "We're done."
5:34[Our channel is open as usual] - Like "Closed." But we ask for help. - Closed.
5:38But you know what?
5:39It's really hard to earn subscribers.
5:42[Sad] Why aren't people subscribing?
5:43You're not either.
5:44You just watch videos on channels you like
5:46[Swiping] - then scroll down. - No, I subscribe to those channels.
5:47- You do? - Yes.
5:49[Recruiting real subscribers] - A real subscriber. I'm not like that. - Please subscribe.
5:57If we get 500,000 views on our first try
5:58[Extending after nine tries] let's extend our contract.
5:59[Agency: Silent]
6:00Just extend right away...
6:02- How does that sound? - Good.
6:04So we...
6:05But he's always like this.
6:07After he talks about what he wants to talk about
6:09he just looks at me and tells me to do it.
6:11Then he talks again.
6:13Then later, he comes to me
6:14and says, "Our San does nothing."
6:17[Seems like he's done it many times] I'm just sitting here and be like
6:19"Oh, okay."
6:21It was like that today too! About 30 minutes ago, right?
6:23After coming here, he said
6:24"San doesn't do anything. He doesn't feel like doing anything."
6:26Then you take the lead.
6:27Take the lead.
6:29[I've played this game before] See? He's doing this again.
6:34[Third step: Main content] We need these numbers to convince our fans and the company.
6:38We can't just do whatever we want.
6:40So what do you think
6:41our strongest content is?
6:42Like our real finishing move.
6:44"Man, this is never going to work.
6:46We've got to hit 500,000 on the 8th try, right?"
6:47What would you do then?
6:50How about getting one more friendship tattoo?
6:51[Holding in laughter]
6:52[Meticulous plan] Film everything.
6:53Like getting permission from both our parents.
6:56[Upset]
6:57Don't talk rubbish. People will think we're really dating.
7:01[Not working, huh?]
7:03[Couple tattoo exhibit] Getting both families' approval.
7:05Picking the location...
7:06Designing together or something like that.
7:08We'll get 3 million views right away.
7:10[Thinking]
7:12[Giving in] On our ninth try?
7:14[Expecting their parents' reactions] What? You got another one?
7:18[We're not dating] Anyway, while I have the chance, let me just say this here. We're not dating.
7:21We're just really good friends...
7:24Sorry, but you guys are too far away from each other right now...
7:26[Far]
7:27After talking about this, getting closer feels awkward.
7:29Can we move further again?
7:31I have a question.
7:33For example, if we go on a schedule abroad
7:35and have a day off
7:36then can we film this abroad?
7:38Would you guys come?
7:39[The budget, though]
7:40[Figured out the problem] Okay, understood.
7:42Are you willing to invest in this?
7:44[Supported by Choi San]
7:46[Cast: Jung Wooyoung]
7:48Well, anyways
7:49we have to work really hard on this, San.
7:51- Got it? - Okay.
7:52Then let's go back to the starting point.
7:55- Again. - Go back to the starting point.
7:56[First step: Come up with items] - What's trending doesn't work. - Right, it won't.
7:59[Got an idea] How about going to Haidilao?
8:01What are we going to do there?
8:03Eat a frog leg or something?
8:04And we watched
8:05them dance with the noodles, right?
8:06We can go there and try it.
8:08- A part-time job for a day? - Go like this.
8:10"Try to grab this. Can you?"
8:12[According to San's algorithm, that's the most trendy] San went to Haidilao recently.
8:15I did! I went there!
8:18It was amazing!
8:19[Q. A food service job requires a health certificate]
8:21Right.
8:22[Q. Can you get a health certificate?
8:23So you're going to film us getting poked?
8:25[Wait, stop] I mean, it's already like...
8:27With this combination
8:28it's a bit uncomfortable.
8:29[Someone has to stop this] If we go that far
8:32it feels like...
8:38[Let's forget about Haidilao]
8:40[Let's forget about Haidilao]
8:43[Fourth step: Main host] But wait, SanWoo doesn't sound right.
8:45True. Isn't that right?
8:47SanWoo doesn't sound catchy.
8:48WooSan sounds more catchy.
8:50{This channel is mine now]
8:53I'm not accepting my defeat.
8:55Although I'm not accepting my defeat
8:56when thinking about our combination
8:59WooSan sounds more catchy.
9:00[WooSan with history and tradition] We've built up our chemistry with the name WooSan.
9:04If it becomes SanWoo all of a sudden
9:05it's not right.
9:06[Keep WooSa, but pick the main host separately] But I think there should be a separate main host.
9:08[Q. Who's stronger? / Choi San] - He's strong. - I'm strong.
9:10[Q. Who is taller? / Choi San] - He's tall. - I'm tall.
9:12[Q. Who has broader shoulders? / Choi San] My shoulders are broad.
9:13What are you guys doing here?
9:15[I want to go home] I'm right here.
9:19[Suggesting a different rule] How about making a routine?
9:22Instead of a competition
9:23that's too intense
9:25do something simple.
9:26The loser
9:27has to buy coffee the next shoot.
9:30[Accepted] Deal.
9:31I think something like this would be good too.
9:32Everyone here is
9:34- They're working. They're our people. - working hard for us.
9:36They're all our people.
9:38Get it?
9:39[Q. Should we call people we know and vote on who the main host is?]
9:42Well, a host's real asset is their connection.
9:44- Okay. - Understood?
9:46- You want to make a call first? - You go first.
9:48Me?
9:50[Diligently picking a friend]
9:56You want to go first?
9:58[Wooyoung tries first]
9:59Oh! I'll go.
10:01[Ringing]
10:04Answering is important.
10:06Oh, babe.
10:08- Hey, Srim. - Yes.
10:09- We're on speaker right now. - Okay...
10:11San and I are starting
10:13a new YouTube channel.
10:14Oh, really?
10:15Are you willing to be on it sometime?
10:18Of course, I will.
10:19[Smoothly booked a guest] Heard that, right? A verbal contract is still a contract.
10:22Babe, but we have to
10:23- decide a main host. - I see.
10:25[Collecting votes from people they know] Between San and me, who looks more like a main host?
10:28Well...
10:29San does...
10:30[Ended a call]
10:33Serim is such a good guy.
10:35[Still picking a friend]
10:37[Finally trying]
10:41What's up, San?
10:43Dad, what are you up to?
10:45[That's a cheap move] I'm driving. Why are you laughing? Tell me what's up.
10:47I was working
10:49and just thought of you, Dad.
10:51- Dad! - Yes?
10:53[Stealing his dad] - Dad! - Oh, Wooyoung.
10:56Remember he and I are starting a YouTube channel?
10:59Are you guys filming for that right now?
11:00Yes, we are.
11:02- Wooyoung. - Yes.
11:03You're good at doing variety shows.
11:05So you work harder, okay?
11:06Although San should too.
11:08[Nice timing] Dad, then who do you think should be the main host?
11:11The main host?
11:13- Should I tell you objectively? - Yes.
11:15I think Wooyoung should.
11:17Okay, then I'll call you later.
11:19Okay.
11:20Bye, Dad.
11:22Alright.
11:23Gosh, why would you call your dad?
11:26I couldn't pick a friend.
11:29[Sob]
11:30I went through my contacts
11:32but couldn't find anyone to call.
11:34That's such a cheap move to use the family card.
11:35Gosh...
11:36Do you know what Wabul's Cup is?
11:39- I do. - I'll go.
11:41This was my last weapon.
11:47- Hey, Wooyoung. - Bro.
11:49- Yes. - I suddenly came up short on cash
11:51Yes.
11:52[Absurd] Can you spot me like three big ones?
11:55[A YouTube moment out of nowhere] - Three big ones? - Yes.
11:58A 100 million?
11:59Yes.
12:01Yes...
12:03Okay, I get it.
12:05But...
12:06I need about two days.
12:08I don't have any cash on me.
12:09I have to sort some stuff out.
12:11Do you have to sell your stocks?
12:12[Forced sale] Huh?
12:13Do you have to sell your stocks?
12:14I have to sell my everything.
12:15[Touched]
12:19I have to sell my everything
12:20to get that much money.
12:21Then
12:22you can get three big ones ready, right?
12:24Even though I don't have it right now
12:25I'll sell lands or something to make it.
12:27[Clinging] How much can you land me right now?
12:29I need it right now.
12:31Hang on. Let me check my KakaoBank account.
12:34[Checking his KakaoBank account]
12:35[So moved]
12:37I'm not kidding
12:38but I have 3.71 million won right now.
12:40Did you say 3.1 million won?
12:41No, not 3.1 million won.
12:42It's 3.715 million won.
12:45[His account balance, laid bare] It's 3.715 million won.
12:48Okay, man.
12:49Actually, I'm filing a YouTube video.
12:50You're on speaker right now.
12:51Gosh, for you, Wooyoung
12:52I'd sell my underwear to give you that money.
12:55[Saying lines for broadcast] Anyway
12:56you said you only have 3 million won.
12:58It's 3.715 million won.
13:01Anyway, thank you for the 3.715 million won.
13:03We have to pick a main host.
13:04Between me and him
13:05[Finally getting to the point] who do you think should be the main host?
13:08- Is San listening too? - Yes, he is.
13:11- Yo, I'm here. - But San's dad
13:13said honestly
13:14that I should be.
13:16Oh, really?
13:17To make it look better
13:18shouldn't I say San?
13:19[Considering how it'd look] No tell us objectively.
13:20I mean, Wooyoung's the cheap laughs
13:22and San's the heavier stuff...
13:23[Hung up]
13:24[Thanks for the good footage] - But he said he'd lend you the money right away. - Right.
13:32No one laughs.
13:34[Family to ATEEZ who are like family]
13:36- Yo. - What are you up to?
13:38Me? I just showered.
13:40You know Wooyoung and I are doing this YouTube channel, right?
13:42[Vote for the main host] Who should be the main host?
13:45- Main host? - Yes, who should be it?
13:47Wouldn't you be better at it, San?
13:49[What do you know?] - Do you even know anything about YouTube? - Okay, I'll call you later.
13:59[ATEEZ, gather up]
14:02- Hello. - Hey, can you talk for a bit?
14:04- Yes. - We're filming a YouTube video.
14:06Say hello to the viewers.
14:08I was brushing my teeth.
14:09Hello.
14:12Good...
14:14What do I say? Subscribe and like.
14:16Oh, our
14:17channel's name is
14:18"Go Nine or Go Big."
14:20- "Go Nine or Go Big." - "Go Nine or Go Big."
14:22- What is that? - Well, if we don't
14:23get 500,000 views in 9 tries
14:24we're oval.
14:25- Over. - Over.
14:27[Possible] Not oval but over.
14:28Well...
14:29I think it's pretty easy
14:31to get 500,000 views.
14:32We can do it.
14:33You can do it? Okay.
14:35[Pick the main host] But we have to pick the main host.
14:37Main host?
14:39Between you and San?
14:40But isn't it a bit predictable for you to do it?
14:42Whatever.
14:43[Predictable ending]
14:49[A sweet ringback tone]
14:52[A not so sweet atmosphere]
15:06[The frontrunner for main host, taking it easy]
15:10Oh, San.
15:11What are you up to?
15:16[A lie] Wait, pretending to be getting call.
15:21Hey, I'll call you later.
15:23[My sister is busy right now]
15:28Hey.
15:29[Apologizing]
15:32- Gosh. - Why did you hit me?
15:35- You told me to call her. - Why would you hit me?
15:37[Result: Main host Choi San]
15:39[Fifth step: Subscribers' name] Then what should we call our subscribers?
15:42I wanted to do this.
15:44Shall we do that
15:45- after things settle down a bit? - Okay.
15:47[Modest force dispatched] We're getting way ahead of ourselves.
15:49We should study a lot too.
15:51We're going to become YouTubers, right?
15:53I can't just watch YouTube for fun anymore.
15:55[Determined look]
15:56I'll start studying.
15:57Should I be honest?
15:58I don't believe you.
16:00You always say that, and then
16:02[All talk] after a day, "Oh, this is fun."
16:04Then you take responsiblity
16:05and do that.
16:07I'll work hard too.
16:08You read the trend.
16:10Okay, what about you?
16:11[Me?] Enjoy watching?
16:13No.
16:14I'll be different.
16:15You can do well for "Go Nine or Go Big," right?
16:16[Let's do well for "Go Nine or Go Big" - Yes, for "Go Nine or Go Big." - "Go Nine or Go Big."
16:19For "Go Nine or Go Big"
16:20shall we decide a chant or something?
16:21When I talked about subscribers' name
16:24you said not to get way ahead of ourselves.
16:25I mean, a chant.
16:27[Feeling wronged] Exactly.
16:29To pick a name
16:30for our subscribers
16:31we don't have any yet.
16:33[Understood] Since we have our channel's name?
16:35[Agreed to come up with a chant] Shall we do the chant lastly?
16:37Nine tries start now.
