Okay, there have been a ton of recent parodies and references to Hyun Bin‘s sparkly tracksuit in Secret Garden, but this one really takes the cake. And not just because it features a perennial drama favorite, Kim Gab-soo, but because of the title it has given itself: “Sausage Garden.” OMG. Someone want to tell them that, uh, that title? It suggests something entirely different than what they mean?
The pictured scene comes from the MBC sitcom All My Love, and aired today (January 13′s Episode 39). It features a storyline in which Kim Gab-soo’s character is advised to get healthy, and embarks on a diet and exercise regimen. Alas, he has a formidable Achilles heel: his love of processed sausage sticks. LOL.
And thus he dons the tracksuit made famous by Hyun Bin, and re-enacts the sit-up scene with Jung Ho-bin (his butler/assistant). LMAO.
And there we have it: Sausage Garden. (Spit-take. Can I even say that?)
Oh, Kim Gab-soo. He’s like the Christopher Walken of Korea.
What makes me laugh the most is the utter absurdity of the captions labeling these photos on the show’s official website. Perhaps the humor won’t translate if you don’t understand Korean, but for those who do, here’s what they read:
“한 남자가 소시지를 사랑합니다…”
“그 남자가 열심히 먹었답니다…”
Did anybody else sing those captions to the melody of the drama’s soundtrack song? ‘Cause that makes me giggle like a loon. Here, sing along:
Hyun Bin – “그남자” (That Man). [ Download ]
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
A potentially humor-killing explanation: The captions read “One man loves sausages… That man diligently eats them…” The reason it’s so funny is because the words mimic, syllable by syllable, the real lyrics of the song.

So many have caught the SG fever huh!
I cracked up too hard because of THE SAUSAGE
Cute!!! Love those last photos…
HAHHAAHHAHA this is great. i love kim gab-soo and the sparkly tracksuit… secret garden should totally do a cameo of him in that suit.
he can be Joo-Won’s estranged father.
I would love that! I can almost imagine Joo-won having inherited his love of hand stitched sparkly track suits from his father.
…or maybe he is the older Jo Won…come to think of it with that kind of set up he may still be childish…..diet, discipline, exercise it shows that he needs some shaping up (character again…)I wonder who will be the older Ra-Im….lol…peace… my imagination gone wild…
LOL! If he shows up at SG with THAT tracksuit, then I’ll turn a blind eye at the show’s every flaw. with a smile.
ROFL (except it’s more like supressed giggle cos I’m at the office). That lyric is so hilarious on so many levels.
teeheehee!
(hey the butler is also the butler in BOF!)
I nearly died while watching the preview last night, and it didn’t even have those lyrics. XD
I’m downloading the episode now, so I’ll let you kids know if there’s even more hilarity to be had.
Kim Gab-soo, I love you. Much like Christopher Walken, I wish there was a way for me to elect you to every post ever. ♥
i’m a bit young to be stanning for Kim Gab Soo, but i seriously seriously wanna.. nothing like a mature man with eyes like that, peppered with a little gray and a LOT of sense of humor?
<3 teehee 
yess!
actually I just have mad ajussi love for Kim Gab Su..
He’s my ICOMOM
now if he had the body to top it off? nay? too much..lol
Kim Gab Soo is a really great actor…loved him in Sungkyunkwan Scandal!
Yes, he is SO the Christopher Walken of S.Korea! Walken has the cowbell, now Kim has the sausage. omg I love both these actors and I must see this. Just reading your post KILLED me!!
oh how i love me some kgs
Jwasang! What would Lee Sun Joon say about this?
hehe! probably roll his eyes at his father… (yeorim might get jealous and would want to do this with geol oh)
it’s kind of strange remembering him in that role when you see something like this!!! hehe!
HA!
& @J2: (yeorim might get jealous and would want to do this with geol oh) – so true!
I so love Kim Gabs Soo.
And the parody is just so faboo. I really wonder if those who came up with the idea know how the parody translates into English and American culture.
Omo Kim Gab Soo, such a sport! Sausage Garden sounds SO WRONG HAHAHA
DD
LOL! Oh, man! I was trying to suppress my laughter but had to give up when I got to the lyrics part. Hehehe…I’ll try singing along now.. =)
Hahaha! It cracked me up watching the episode. Aside from the sit-up scene (“That Woman” plays in the background), he also did the Joo-won ‘solitary’ walk while reciting Joo-won’s neurotic verse. =) So so funny!
Hahahhaha..one of my fave K actor. He really can pull anything…:))
That tracksuit is growing on me. I wonder if my husband will wear it if I buy him one…lol
I wonder if it will become a trend in Korea. Can you imagine seeing people wearing it on the subways and buses?!
i thought she was serious lol…i think if u wear it most people will know the reference to the drama and smile!
if you re a guy you might even get an ahjumma to give you an extra serving of fish cake or something at the stall…
i actually REALLY wanted to buy one. but then in the US, unless i m in HMart, no one will know and i d be embarassed more so than strutting that tracksuit with pride…
i want to buy one for my cousin though but since he lives in a small town…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

the stern second-in-command agent chul hwan in athena assisting the mysterious ji seung of joseon x-files?! hells yeah!
o_O
I am strange if this makes me love KGS even more?
not at all….i know .i do
ohhh!!! hahaha! i just love this man… so funny
Ommo… wae so cute! KGS is really sporting… I think in an earlier episode he crossed dress and look like his character’s daughter (Brown Eyes Girl’s Ga-In’s) image and its hilariouz…
I love it when actor that their art seriously… ^^
I literally cracked up laughing when I heard Sausage Garden.
Um, so do I take it the double entendre doesn’t carry over to Korean?
That almost makes it even funnier.
hahahaha this is hilarious!
now, if kim gab soo would sing a version of hyun bin’s “that man”, and call the song “that sausage”, it’d be perfect!!
All My Love seems so fun. It has Brown Eyed Girls’ “Abracadabra” parody too, right?
Are you watching this drama regularly, javabeans? Is it worth watching?
I want to download it – the casts are hilarious, Jo Kwon,Ga In,Park Mi seon, and of course Kim Gab soo – but it’s so long…makes me hesitant to start it.
It’s worth watching even though it’s not a masterpiece per say. It’s a family comedy, has your typical reoccurring gags, but has little story lines for each character aside from the main storyline. It’s not long at all considering each episode is about 30 mins. But yes, you’d have a lot of episodes to catch up on. Last but not least, Jo Kwon’s sassy craziness itself is worth the watch. It also airs daily so there’s no long wait for the next episode.
rofl
this is too precious, I’m so downloading the episode to keep as an instant pick-me-up!
just curious, but what website do you download from?
So not only does he have the most amazing eyes and charisma ever… but his humor is also amazingly charming??
This is brilliant! Hahaha oh man I need to watch it. But… seriously….
is anyone not in love with Kim Gab-soo? Because I think I am.
Just saw this on You tube. Very funny with the music and the suggestive expressions by KGS…
Kekeke, this is amazing. I’m totally gonna use these lyrics from now on…
“Did anybody else sing those captions to the melody of the drama’s soundtrack song?”
MEEE. LOL
This is too damn funny! I swear, Kim Gab Soo is freakin’ awesome!!!!!!!!! First as a pop star and now this. GREATNESS

Here’s the link to the vid.
thank you so much for the link
I wonder how long it took them to film that scene. Must have NG 100 x
Thanks for the link…am laughing like crazy at 1 am…lol…priceless scene…:))
Thank you! I laughed so hard!
I laughed so much, I cried, my stomach hurts and I need to go pee. I swear, Kim Gab Soo is freakin’ amazing!!! What a sight!! Kim Gab Soo wearing the sparkling track suit that refuses to go away. Priceless.
Thanks for sharing!!!
o0o0o0oh so0o0o0o cute
“One man loves sausages… That man diligently eats them…”
*choked on her own spit* =)) =)) =))
Lol. Hilarious! Who knew there were that many sparkly tracksuits just waiting on a shelf in some store somewhere to be made famous by a drama?
그 남자가 열심히 먹었답니다…
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Now i’m gonna sing those lyrics instead
Only shows mimicking SNL [vs AML] in some degree do tell what is today’s trend grabbers… sparkly tracksuits, diets, exercise, and sausages. This world is getting a bit complicated. I tell you, this new year’s resolution is the same every year, I should take a picture of my gym to show you peeps how much motivation kicks in every beginning of a new year.
I like this show’s humor. There should be more jokes about new year’s resolutions.
You should take a picture of your gym today and compare it with a picture three months after. I bet the latter will be relatively empty. =/
New year’s resolutions are good only for the new year…
Just reading this and looking at the pictures, I cracked up. Hahahahah its so funny! The sit-ups! Hahaha. Really, where can i buy that blue sparkly tracksuit? Even im Intrigued why, but i like it.
Christopher Walken is a GREAT way of describing Kim Gab-soo.
Just watched a couple of clips. Definitely one of the best parodies I’ve seen! Loved it!
Wait for it….
Kim Gab-soo!!!
I don’t understand Korean but the pix has me cracking up!
KGS is indeed Korea’s Christopher Walken
The parody was funny! Funny
there was another reference, albeit indirect, to secret garden in this episode. ha ji won’s brother is in it and there was a scene in which someone took his picture and did the “celebrity match” profile. he came up as ha ji won and he was all, “i dont look like ha ji won!” her brother is a cutie!
oh. my. lord.
!!!!
NOW i feel like i’ve seen everything.
Thanks for the post. Made me laugh.
MINE!
Kim Gab Soo continually grows awesome.
This is hilarious. Gosh I want to see this so badly. Time fly faster!
All My Love is a great sitcom!
I was wondering if javabeans would cover this XD
AH!
Its Christopher Walken!
Every time I see him I think of Walken
Sausage Garden.. oh jeez.
They don’t get the dirty dirty turns of English.
No Min Woo Banner~ <3
OMG i nearly died laughing there! and i was in the office and everybody were like, “wth is her problem?!”. good thing boss wasn’t around.. still this takes the cake out of all the recent parodies. imma want that tracksuit for myself just for the laughs lol. and KGS’s look when he winked, that was just too funny for words
D
Hahahahaha! Omg, my sides ache from laughter. I cannot listen to that song with a straight face ever again xD
Oh this is hilarious.
Actually, eversince Secret Garden, i’m always liken Hyun Bin to Kim Gab Soo, thinking that when HB got older he will be the KGS of him generation, who is quite diverse in acting. Small or Big role, he portrays them beautifully and right-on character. They even have the same shape of the face, isn’t it?
they really do look quite like each other…I think if Hyun Bin would age he would end up looking like Kim Gab Soo.. i think it’s the eyes? or the jaws.. well, whatever bottom line is they both look good right?

part two…let’s see if this works…
LOL at his description of sausage as being like Kim Tae Hee and Jeon Do Yeon to him
Thanks for the link!
