Man #1: Ok. Let's imagine for a moment that I am you and you are me. Now, what are you going to say to Chan-Seung Lee.
Man #2: I don't understand.
Man #1: It's simple. I need your help with this question. Suppose that you are me and tell me what to do.
Man #2: Well, if I were you ......
Man #1: No, no, no. You ARE me.
Man #2: Sorry, I will give him some examples of the 2nd conditional.
Man #1: Thanks. That's a good idea.
The present simple is possible here because we are acting out this situation now, in the present.
