(**Satoori is a dialect that are spoken in different parts of Korea. Seoul Korean is considered the standard language while the rest of them are considered as dialect.)

Group SS501 member Kim Kyu Jong talked about an incident arising from his quick-to-come satoori. Recently Kim KyuJong attended to KBS 2TV ‘Happy Together 3’ filming and said “I almost got into a fight because of satoori”, making the others curious of what happened.

Kim KyuJong spent his student years in Jeollado, he came to a theme park in Seoul for one of his school trip. It was the school trip high season, therefore the theme park is crowded with a lot of other students who came from various places. One student bumped into Kim KyuJong and that student asked Kim KyuJong “Are you okay?”

Kim KyuJong replied in Jeollado satoori “Amshirongdo ahnyeoyo” which means ‘I am fine’, however the Seoul student didn’t know what it meant and mistaken it as a intonation of insult and asked Kim KyuJong “What?”. Kim KyuJong said to that student once again “Amshirongdo ahnyeoyo” and that student became even angrier. The misunderstanding was solved just before the fight broke out and before the situation got worse. Kim KyuJong’s method of resolving this misunderstanding will be revealed in ‘Happy Together 3’ on 26-Nov.

Meanwhile, Kim KyuJong will talk in satoori unknowingly if he is angry. He said the interesting satoori “Ahdda, Dijigae (Ah~ Really?)” making the rest of the guests laugh. Broadcast is on 26-Nov at 11.15pm.
