2
00:00:07,007 --> 00:00:09,467
I am a good singer

3
00:00:09,759 --> 00:00:13,263
I even cook quite well

4
00:00:13,555 --> 00:00:16,933
I'm smart, too
But people say...

5
00:00:17,142 --> 00:00:20,186
that I'm nothing but the face

6
00:00:25,108 --> 00:00:28,820
Why did Mom have to make me like this?

7
00:00:28,945 --> 00:00:30,905
I see myself in the mirror...

8
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,996
Sorry. My throat is a little dry.
I think it's because I haven't slept much.

9
00:00:38,246 --> 00:00:41,958
No, it's okay.
You sing just fine.

10
00:00:42,292 --> 00:00:44,544
And the song really suits you.

11
00:00:45,170 --> 00:00:49,674
Now I see why the director wanted
to use your song as it is.

12
00:00:49,758 --> 00:00:54,804
But, don't you think it's an awkward song
to sing while ripping people off?

13
00:00:54,888 --> 00:00:57,432
I think it makes it more interesting.

14
00:00:57,849 --> 00:01:01,478
In the middle of tricking people,
you are singing this song,

15
00:01:01,561 --> 00:01:03,021
thinking about the person you love.

16
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:06,524
I heard that you wrote the lyrics, too.

17
00:01:10,779 --> 00:01:11,905
You're dating someone, right?

18
00:01:12,530 --> 00:01:14,783
What? No.

19
00:01:15,784 --> 00:01:16,951
I bet you like someone.

20
00:01:21,748 --> 00:01:23,208
Yes, you do.

21
00:01:23,291 --> 00:01:27,128
It's sad that you are so busy right now.
It must not be easy to see her.

22
00:01:31,508 --> 00:01:36,179
How about you?

23
00:01:36,471 --> 00:01:41,601
How do you feel about me?
Yeah...

24
00:01:46,272 --> 00:01:48,566
Yunwoo!
When did you get here?

25
00:01:48,983 --> 00:01:51,945
Oh, I just dropped by.

26
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,656
I had to give you something.

27
00:01:54,823 --> 00:01:55,824
What's this?

28
00:01:58,868 --> 00:02:00,245
It's for you.

29
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:06,751
Are you trying to make me cry?

30
00:02:08,211 --> 00:02:11,631
When the busy times are over,
let's forget about the diet,

31
00:02:11,715 --> 00:02:12,716
and eat chicken and beer.

32
00:02:13,008 --> 00:02:15,135
Two chickens per person!

33
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,596
I don't think we need to.

34
00:02:20,181 --> 00:02:21,850
I don't like chicken, to be honest.

35
00:02:22,392 --> 00:02:26,771
What?
Then, shall we have Korean beef?

36
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:29,691
I'll make sure
to use the corporate card.

37
00:02:30,525 --> 00:02:32,736
I don't like that as well.

38
00:02:33,278 --> 00:02:38,199
You don't like Korean beef?
Are you a vegetarian? I didn't know.

39
00:02:40,243 --> 00:02:42,746
You don't know a lot of things.

40
00:02:44,164 --> 00:02:45,331
What?

41
00:02:45,874 --> 00:02:47,042
It's okay.

42
00:02:47,667 --> 00:02:51,129
Because now I know for sure.

43
00:02:53,423 --> 00:02:56,551
I'll get going. See ya.

44
00:02:59,137 --> 00:03:03,058
Oh, don't play it too loud.
Bad for your ears.

45
00:03:16,279 --> 00:03:17,697
Did you ask her out?

46
00:03:20,742 --> 00:03:23,536
I think I got turned down
before I had the chance.

47
00:03:25,789 --> 00:03:27,791
Are you giving up just like that?

48
00:03:27,874 --> 00:03:29,709
That's the fate of my character.

49
00:03:30,335 --> 00:03:33,254
To watch over the person
so that she can be happy.

50
00:03:36,341 --> 00:03:38,009
I'm talking about the film.

51
00:03:38,218 --> 00:03:41,429
He wishes her happiness
inside the prison at the end.

52
00:03:42,722 --> 00:03:45,684
Will you be able to shoot the movie
while singing for SOUL?

53
00:03:45,850 --> 00:03:47,852
I heard we're shooting the final scene...

54
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,522
somewhere far away.

55
00:03:56,194 --> 00:03:58,905
EPISODE 14
24 HOURS

56
00:03:59,197 --> 00:04:00,198
Everyone!

57
00:04:00,281 --> 00:04:02,409
Getting any?

58
00:04:04,411 --> 00:04:06,413
Today, we have from Icarus...

59
00:04:06,705 --> 00:04:07,831
LJ!

60
00:04:11,543 --> 00:04:12,544
LJ!

61
00:04:13,336 --> 00:04:18,925
I heard that LJ just received
a very special award.

62
00:04:21,928 --> 00:04:24,973
"The Most Common Song of the Year!"

63
00:04:25,056 --> 00:04:26,725
- Thank you!
- Thank you!

64
00:04:29,185 --> 00:04:30,729
Wow, thank you so much.

65
00:04:31,062 --> 00:04:34,232
Although I'm not sure
if this is a compliment or sarcasm.

66
00:04:34,399 --> 00:04:35,608
Thanks, anyway.

67
00:04:37,318 --> 00:04:38,987
Please have a seat.

68
00:04:39,988 --> 00:04:44,826
I heard that the trainee days
are very long for South Korean idols.

69
00:04:44,909 --> 00:04:46,870
It must've been hard making your debut.

70
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:48,288
That's right.

71
00:04:48,371 --> 00:04:49,956
LJ'S VOICE CHANGES WHEN SPEAKING JAPANESE
DON'T PANIC

72
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,792
It's also hard after the debut.
I have to manage myself

73
00:04:52,876 --> 00:04:55,378
so that I'm not caught up in any troubles.

74
00:04:55,462 --> 00:04:58,840
I heard that a group
from your agency got into a trouble,

75
00:04:58,923 --> 00:05:00,925
and you had to make your debut suddenly.

76
00:05:01,051 --> 00:05:02,052
Is it true?

77
00:05:02,135 --> 00:05:04,596
All my fans already know about this.

78
00:05:05,055 --> 00:05:08,058
Three years ago,
the group SOUL from Starlight,

79
00:05:08,308 --> 00:05:10,101
was caught in an unfortunate event.

80
00:05:10,477 --> 00:05:15,315
To minimize the company's risk,
Icarus was quickly put together.

81
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,984
The arena tour was originally
SOUL's schedule.

82
00:05:18,068 --> 00:05:20,487
Is that true?

83
00:05:20,570 --> 00:05:24,032
Because LJ cried during that concert.

84
00:05:24,115 --> 00:05:29,287
You all saw it, right?
That video was very popular in Japan.

85
00:05:32,415 --> 00:05:35,585
Even I have seen that video,
and I'm a middle-aged man!

86
00:05:49,265 --> 00:05:51,267
Don't cry!

87
00:05:51,351 --> 00:05:52,936
These are tears of gratitude.

88
00:05:53,061 --> 00:05:56,189
Look at him...

89
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:59,192
Okay, wait a minute, guys.

90
00:05:59,275 --> 00:06:01,361
I have a question about this.

91
00:06:01,444 --> 00:06:02,570
What is it?

92
00:06:02,696 --> 00:06:04,406
Why did you cry?

93
00:06:04,489 --> 00:06:09,619
Was it because you felt sorry
for taking SOUL's tour?

94
00:06:11,663 --> 00:06:14,124
SOUL's misfortune, three years ago...

95
00:06:14,457 --> 00:06:16,793
Wasn't it you who set it up?

96
00:06:16,876 --> 00:06:20,380
I got caught in all kinds of emotions.

97
00:06:20,714 --> 00:06:23,508
I think, at that time...

98
00:06:24,009 --> 00:06:25,593
I did feel sorry for them, too.

99
00:06:27,012 --> 00:06:30,557
I'm just kidding.

100
00:07:11,848 --> 00:07:13,433
TMI OF K-POP
EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW

101
00:07:18,104 --> 00:07:21,733
Are you seriously trying
to play hard to get with the release time?

102
00:07:22,692 --> 00:07:24,986
"Tomorrow 6:00 p.m. is a better time?"

103
00:07:25,070 --> 00:07:28,740
Yes, it's better for popular groups.
Our boys have a puny fandom!

104
00:07:29,074 --> 00:07:30,867
"Twelve in the afternoon," my ass!

105
00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:34,454
Night, night, night!
I mean 12 in the night!

106
00:07:38,875 --> 00:07:40,919
God, these idiots are so...

107
00:07:47,550 --> 00:07:50,553
Well, it doesn't matter.
The mics were off.

108
00:07:58,103 --> 00:08:00,105
...and stays for about two weeks?

109
00:08:02,065 --> 00:08:03,692
Isn't 50th too easy?

110
00:08:03,775 --> 00:08:06,027
BTS' song is first on the Billboard chart.

111
00:08:06,111 --> 00:08:09,322
Hey, excuse me.
We're not competing with pop songs.

112
00:08:09,406 --> 00:08:11,241
You Are Singer, Sugar Man,
King of Masked Singer.

113
00:08:11,324 --> 00:08:13,660
Songs from these TV shows
are our competition, okay?

114
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,121
Thank God the Infinite Challenge
song festival's gone.

115
00:08:16,204 --> 00:08:19,416
She's right. 50th in Korea
is a great success for SOUL.

116
00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:20,750
A big hit!

117
00:08:20,834 --> 00:08:22,168
- What?
- Ms. Kang...

118
00:08:23,169 --> 00:08:25,714
I was trying to say that I wish
this album is a big hit.

119
00:08:25,797 --> 00:08:26,798
Okay.

120
00:08:26,881 --> 00:08:29,259
Is the album being released as usual?

121
00:08:29,342 --> 00:08:31,344
- Your voice...
- Did you catch a cold?

122
00:08:31,428 --> 00:08:32,470
Never you mind.

123
00:08:33,221 --> 00:08:35,682
Set the starting time
for the charts at 6:00 p.m.

124
00:08:35,765 --> 00:08:40,061
Okay. Filling up the charts
with SOUL songs seemed too much,

125
00:08:40,145 --> 00:08:41,563
so only the title is
being released today,

126
00:08:41,646 --> 00:08:43,732
and the rest tomorrow, one by one.

127
00:08:43,857 --> 00:08:45,275
Viral marketing?

128
00:08:45,358 --> 00:08:47,027
Blocked, as you ordered.

129
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:48,820
Ms. Kang, are you okay?

130
00:08:48,903 --> 00:08:51,823
Yes, yes. Let's focus on the meeting.
Well done, people.

131
00:08:51,990 --> 00:08:56,161
Those raise suspicions of cornering,
so it's a bad strategy.

132
00:08:56,286 --> 00:08:58,955
What's more, they all use hacked IP's.

133
00:08:59,122 --> 00:09:03,376
So we started releasing teasers
every midnight, from three days ago.

134
00:09:03,460 --> 00:09:04,711
Yes, great.

135
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:09,549
Let's all stay focused until the end,
and take care of SOUL.

136
00:09:09,966 --> 00:09:11,718
This might be the last opportunity,

137
00:09:11,801 --> 00:09:15,430
for them to achieve something,
and for us to help them. Okay?

138
00:09:17,599 --> 00:09:19,059
She's finished?
Ms. Kang!

139
00:09:19,142 --> 00:09:20,560
Ballon flower roots are good
for your throat.

140
00:09:20,643 --> 00:09:21,853
No, not that.
Quince!

141
00:09:21,936 --> 00:09:24,230
That was so quick.
She must be very sick.

142
00:09:25,690 --> 00:09:29,194
People, this is an album release.
This is war!

143
00:09:53,176 --> 00:09:56,638
The first trial for the corrupt minister
is a bigger issue today.

144
00:09:57,055 --> 00:09:58,431
Did you find any? No?

145
00:09:58,807 --> 00:10:01,768
Jesus, there's nothing on trending lists!

146
00:10:02,018 --> 00:10:03,269
As expected.

147
00:10:03,353 --> 00:10:06,731
But we have a comeback article somewhere
on the main page. That will do.

148
00:10:06,856 --> 00:10:10,568
Since Sooyong became a member,
no one's talking about the plagiarism.

149
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:13,697
There's a request on "DC Inside"
for a SOUL gallery.

150
00:10:13,780 --> 00:10:14,823
Really?

151
00:10:16,199 --> 00:10:19,744
What's everyone doing?
Go on every article and leave a comment.

152
00:10:19,828 --> 00:10:22,038
Go on every community site, too.

153
00:10:22,330 --> 00:10:24,332
And don't make it look
like we're selling them.

154
00:10:24,416 --> 00:10:26,751
Today's Humor, Clien,
Bestiz and DC Inside are taken care of.

155
00:10:27,210 --> 00:10:28,253
What about Ilbe?

156
00:10:34,718 --> 00:10:36,845
That might seem like a good question,

157
00:10:36,928 --> 00:10:39,014
but it's better to compete
with political issues.

158
00:10:39,097 --> 00:10:43,351
If we bump into chart-devouring beasts,
that means a real war.

159
00:10:43,435 --> 00:10:46,479
This is a comeback date for TWICE,

160
00:10:46,563 --> 00:10:48,940
and this is the day
when BTS is coming back.

161
00:10:51,026 --> 00:10:53,028
Wars should be avoided, if possible.

162
00:10:54,863 --> 00:10:57,073
They say art is about instinct.

163
00:10:57,157 --> 00:10:59,534
That a good song makes its way
up the chart...

164
00:10:59,617 --> 00:11:00,869
Let me try again.

165
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:04,664
They say art is about instinct.

166
00:11:04,748 --> 00:11:07,375
That a good song makes its way
up the chart no matter what.

167
00:11:08,043 --> 00:11:12,130
No. Here's the truth.
This is a fierce war of strategy.

168
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:18,720
Finished?

169
00:11:19,346 --> 00:11:22,390
That's why we choose a TV show carefully.

170
00:11:22,474 --> 00:11:25,185
As you know, SOUL
was known for plagiarism.

171
00:11:25,977 --> 00:11:28,730
They needed to create
a new, fresh image,

172
00:11:28,813 --> 00:11:31,107
hence the show,
"Do-re-mi-fa-SOLO-si-do."

173
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:34,235
It showed all the members
writing their own songs.

174
00:11:34,402 --> 00:11:37,947
People think a successful song depends
on originality,

175
00:11:38,031 --> 00:11:40,450
listeners' taste, and even luck.

176
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:42,827
But its release process is pure science.

177
00:11:42,911 --> 00:11:45,330
Big data is the only thing you can trust.

178
00:11:53,963 --> 00:11:55,090
NARAGOONG

179
00:11:55,173 --> 00:11:57,425
It's not that we believe in these things,

180
00:11:57,592 --> 00:12:00,261
but we are just hearing an opinion
and taking it into account.

181
00:12:00,512 --> 00:12:05,225
This place accurately predicted
the top songs for the last three years.

182
00:12:05,308 --> 00:12:08,520
Number of music show appearances,
even the member selections...

183
00:12:08,603 --> 00:12:12,190
Oh, even the countries
where the groups became popular.

184
00:12:14,359 --> 00:12:16,111
This shaman graduated from
Seoul National University?

185
00:12:16,194 --> 00:12:17,195
Really?

186
00:12:17,278 --> 00:12:18,446
- Talking about me?
- Oh, my goodness.

187
00:12:18,571 --> 00:12:19,572
Hi.

188
00:12:19,864 --> 00:12:21,866
Are you from SNU?
Philosophy?

189
00:12:22,158 --> 00:12:23,451
Early childhood education.

190
00:12:23,535 --> 00:12:24,911
So you like children.

191
00:12:25,495 --> 00:12:27,288
I assume you came to ask about kids?

192
00:12:27,372 --> 00:12:28,498
Idol kids?

193
00:12:28,581 --> 00:12:29,582
- Yes.
- Yes.

194
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:33,128
Come in.
Sorry to keep you waiting!

195
00:12:33,545 --> 00:12:35,880
I had so many guests today.

196
00:12:35,964 --> 00:12:38,299
What's the genre?
Ballad? Dance? Hip-hop?

197
00:12:38,383 --> 00:12:39,467
Oh, it's "Saul" University.

198
00:12:39,551 --> 00:12:40,593
GRADUATION CERTIFICATE

199
00:12:40,677 --> 00:12:44,180
Our boys do "chill trap."
It's a funky type of music,

200
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:45,932
- combined with house...
- Stop!

201
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:48,977
I can see...

202
00:12:49,728 --> 00:12:52,147
your boys walking down a very rough road.

203
00:12:52,230 --> 00:12:53,690
- What?
- Excuse me?

204
00:12:54,482 --> 00:12:55,817
You want answers, you pay.

205
00:12:58,528 --> 00:12:59,904
Maybe a corporate card will do...

206
00:12:59,988 --> 00:13:02,407
Use your own card!
If Ms. Kang finds out, we're doomed.

207
00:13:02,574 --> 00:13:03,658
Use your card, Mr. Kim.

208
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:05,744
Why should I use my...

209
00:13:05,827 --> 00:13:09,414
You're from Starlight?
Starlight, eh?

210
00:13:09,831 --> 00:13:11,332
LJ was here last time.

211
00:13:11,416 --> 00:13:12,417
- What?
- What?

212
00:13:12,751 --> 00:13:15,253
That's LJ!
He came here by himself!

213
00:13:15,337 --> 00:13:17,881
It's so low of him
to abandon his colleagues.

214
00:13:17,964 --> 00:13:21,718
Are we doing this or not?
Because I'm going in to sleep.

215
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:23,595
So tired after seeing
other peoples' futures...

216
00:13:23,678 --> 00:13:25,764
Okay, we're going in, too.

217
00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:31,811
Let me put it this way.
A "future consultant?"

218
00:13:35,774 --> 00:13:37,484
How could I know everything?

219
00:13:37,692 --> 00:13:40,278
I can simply see a step ahead.

220
00:13:40,695 --> 00:13:45,200
Well, sometimes, two steps ahead.
So I can't actually change anything.

221
00:13:47,786 --> 00:13:49,079
Sometimes...

222
00:13:50,789 --> 00:13:52,457
Seeing the future brings bad luck.

223
00:14:06,012 --> 00:14:09,516
There are so many things to consider
before an album is made.

224
00:14:09,683 --> 00:14:12,018
And when it gets to a certain stage,

225
00:14:12,352 --> 00:14:15,271
I get confused and ask myself
whether my decisions were good.

226
00:14:18,024 --> 00:14:19,776
So he's getting the haircut?

227
00:14:20,610 --> 00:14:23,780
Okay, the die is cast.
Let's go!

228
00:14:24,239 --> 00:14:27,450
Styling for idols should be a half step
ahead of the trend.

229
00:14:27,534 --> 00:14:29,661
Not one, not two.
Just a half step.

230
00:14:29,911 --> 00:14:32,997
Do you know how many discussions we have
for choosing one hairstyle?

231
00:14:33,456 --> 00:14:36,292
Leave it? Cut it?
If we cut it, how much?

232
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:39,421
Curl it? Straighten it?
Or go with the reggae style?

233
00:14:40,296 --> 00:14:42,382
Short hair is trending again.

234
00:14:42,465 --> 00:14:44,968
So we boldly selected a style
for Sooyong.

235
00:14:58,690 --> 00:15:01,818
Oh, my God. They released Sooyong's style
for this album.

236
00:15:01,901 --> 00:15:04,738
That's the hairstyle he had
for the YouTube video in Mongolia.

237
00:15:04,863 --> 00:15:06,406
Now, he looks more like an idol.

238
00:15:06,489 --> 00:15:07,657
Music show's on!

239
00:15:11,453 --> 00:15:14,080
What a crappy day.

240
00:15:15,123 --> 00:15:16,124
Nice.

241
00:15:21,713 --> 00:15:23,298
Oh, comment olympics
for a music show.

242
00:15:23,673 --> 00:15:25,884
Popular groups do pre-recordings,

243
00:15:25,967 --> 00:15:28,136
but SOUL only has live performances.

244
00:15:28,219 --> 00:15:31,806
Yes, but it feels good this time.
Some foreign fans created group chats

245
00:15:31,890 --> 00:15:33,725
to help SOUL on the charts.

246
00:15:33,933 --> 00:15:35,435
Where was it? Thailand?

247
00:15:35,518 --> 00:15:36,561
- Mexico?
- Mexico!

248
00:15:36,644 --> 00:15:37,854
There's something else.

249
00:15:37,937 --> 00:15:40,273
Did you see the trailer
for "Do-re-mi-fa-SOLO-si-do?"

250
00:15:40,398 --> 00:15:44,986
Gotta be kidding me. Why is Teo holding
Eunbin's hand on a songwriting show?

251
00:15:50,283 --> 00:15:53,244
Non-fans think Sooyong and Haena
have something going on,

252
00:15:53,328 --> 00:15:55,330
but we don't see it that way.

253
00:15:57,332 --> 00:16:00,335
I can feel a vibe coming out
from Teo and Eunbin.

254
00:16:02,712 --> 00:16:06,132
"Teo, I am warning you
while I have the chance."

255
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:10,303
"I don't care if you two go out.
Just don't get busted."

256
00:16:10,929 --> 00:16:13,139
"Remember. Solo Teo."

257
00:16:13,890 --> 00:16:15,266
You talk while you tweet?

258
00:16:15,350 --> 00:16:17,018
Don't forget to "seobang."

259
00:16:25,151 --> 00:16:26,945
It means "search prevention!"

260
00:16:27,028 --> 00:16:28,530
Do we have to explain everything?

261
00:16:28,738 --> 00:16:31,991
It's to prevent bad stuff from coming up
when people search for SOUL members.

262
00:16:32,283 --> 00:16:35,286
If we're writing something bad about them,
we don't write their names.

263
00:16:35,370 --> 00:16:38,790
For example, if it's about "Irib,"
we write it as "2-rib."

264
00:16:39,165 --> 00:16:40,625
So it doesn't show up
on the search results.

265
00:16:41,084 --> 00:16:43,003
It's like a lingo we use.

266
00:16:43,253 --> 00:16:45,422
I retired from the fandom once,

267
00:16:46,047 --> 00:16:47,132
and came back.

268
00:16:48,133 --> 00:16:50,760
My passwords for all the sites,

269
00:16:51,136 --> 00:16:53,888
and my bank account passwords
were set to Teo's birthday.

270
00:16:54,889 --> 00:16:59,519
Every time I pressed in those numbers,
I thought about Teo. I could see him.

271
00:17:00,687 --> 00:17:02,397
How can I resist the memories?

272
00:17:03,064 --> 00:17:05,316
When they are pulling me down.

273
00:17:09,904 --> 00:17:12,949
As I got older and older,

274
00:17:13,533 --> 00:17:16,745
I thought to myself
about why idols exist,

275
00:17:17,662 --> 00:17:19,164
and why they matter so much.

276
00:17:19,247 --> 00:17:21,624
They are alive in front of me,

277
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,337
smiling and waving their hand to me.
Like simulacra.

278
00:17:27,005 --> 00:17:30,592
As you know, simulacra is a replica
without the substance of the original.

279
00:17:30,675 --> 00:17:33,511
But if that replica could evolve
into something more than the original,

280
00:17:33,595 --> 00:17:36,306
what good is the original
when it's not even by my side?

281
00:17:36,389 --> 00:17:40,268
In simple words, fans could function
as the subject of simulation,

282
00:17:40,352 --> 00:17:42,020
accompanying the growth
into something unexpected.

283
00:17:42,687 --> 00:17:43,772
Easy, right?

284
00:17:47,776 --> 00:17:48,818
No.

285
00:17:50,612 --> 00:17:52,322
When you raise a cat,

286
00:17:52,614 --> 00:17:55,784
you call yourself a "butler,"
not a "master."

287
00:18:03,625 --> 00:18:06,544
I think it's simply fate.

288
00:18:07,962 --> 00:18:10,965
An encounter of idols and fans.

289
00:18:20,975 --> 00:18:22,352
Dating?

290
00:18:23,103 --> 00:18:25,897
That's against our business ethics.

291
00:18:26,398 --> 00:18:29,150
We, as idols, feed on our fans' love.

292
00:18:29,901 --> 00:18:32,237
Imagine that we give that love
to one person.

293
00:18:32,529 --> 00:18:33,697
That's a deal-breaker.

294
00:18:34,114 --> 00:18:36,783
It's even in the contract.

295
00:18:37,117 --> 00:18:39,077
The "three-year no dating clause."

296
00:18:42,872 --> 00:18:45,792
But more than three years have passed.

297
00:18:46,167 --> 00:18:47,752
Aren't we allowed to date now?

298
00:18:48,294 --> 00:18:49,337
Yes.

299
00:18:55,677 --> 00:19:00,724
Come on. It should apply only for Sooyong.
They want us to wait for three more years?

300
00:19:03,476 --> 00:19:06,980
They're basically telling us
to join the army twice.

301
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:14,654
What's this all about?

302
00:19:15,989 --> 00:19:17,282
"No dating clause?"

303
00:19:23,538 --> 00:19:25,707
It's not limited to dating.

304
00:19:26,416 --> 00:19:29,419
To tell you the truth, everything
in this world are enemies of idols.

305
00:19:29,711 --> 00:19:31,546
Food makes them fat.

306
00:19:31,629 --> 00:19:34,049
Sleep stops them from completing
their busy schedules.

307
00:19:34,716 --> 00:19:38,303
It's the manager's job
to keep these enemies away from idols.

308
00:19:38,386 --> 00:19:39,679
So we do have troubles.

309
00:19:47,020 --> 00:19:48,188
Look over there.

310
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:51,858
Those two met only a few months ago.

311
00:19:51,941 --> 00:19:53,610
But they don't even look at each other.

312
00:19:54,235 --> 00:19:56,738
Eunsung.
Did you know about this?

313
00:19:57,655 --> 00:19:59,991
Are you avoiding me because of this?

314
00:20:01,368 --> 00:20:03,411
I really don't know, Sooyong.

315
00:20:03,495 --> 00:20:06,289
Do you really wanna date someone
when your album's coming out?

316
00:20:06,539 --> 00:20:07,540
Wait...

317
00:20:07,624 --> 00:20:09,000
Sooyong!

318
00:20:09,376 --> 00:20:10,835
Good luck!

319
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,003
Good luck!

320
00:20:12,087 --> 00:20:13,546
Eunsung!

321
00:20:13,797 --> 00:20:15,799
That is normal.

322
00:20:16,174 --> 00:20:19,469
We're not in the position
to tell them what they want to hear.

323
00:20:21,304 --> 00:20:22,555
- Mr. Pyo!
- Yes?

324
00:20:23,807 --> 00:20:24,849
Hello.

325
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,186
Do you know the "three-year no dating clause"
on this paper?

326
00:20:28,269 --> 00:20:30,230
- Yes.
- When does it start?

327
00:20:30,814 --> 00:20:33,233
It starts when your career starts,
of course.

328
00:20:33,983 --> 00:20:35,694
So, has it started for me?

329
00:20:35,860 --> 00:20:36,903
For you?

330
00:20:37,153 --> 00:20:39,823
You did go on a show,

331
00:20:40,115 --> 00:20:43,159
but the official start
is when your album is released.

332
00:20:44,494 --> 00:20:45,537
That means...

333
00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:48,039
Yes! It starts today!

334
00:20:49,833 --> 00:20:51,418
This is Sooyong from SOUL

335
00:20:52,711 --> 00:20:53,712
Is this...

336
00:20:54,671 --> 00:20:56,089
Is this even legit?

337
00:20:58,299 --> 00:20:59,300
Hey...

338
00:21:00,969 --> 00:21:04,055
Sooyong's having a very hungry day.

339
00:21:04,347 --> 00:21:06,933
He's on a diet,
and the hunger makes him sensitive.

340
00:21:11,104 --> 00:21:14,524
I still don't get a lot of things
about the whole idol business.

341
00:21:15,191 --> 00:21:16,985
There are so many things
that we can't do.

342
00:21:17,527 --> 00:21:18,570
It's like...

343
00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:21,865
I've become the main character
from The Truman Show.

344
00:21:22,657 --> 00:21:23,700
Wait a minute.

345
00:21:24,909 --> 00:21:26,911
Didn't Truman have a girlfriend?

346
00:21:30,498 --> 00:21:31,708
Oh, yes.

347
00:21:31,875 --> 00:21:35,462
When I was in Mongolia,
I met a man from Korea.

348
00:21:36,087 --> 00:21:40,258
He said he was President Baek of Starlight
and he heard my songs.

349
00:21:41,676 --> 00:21:44,054
It's not that I wanted to become an idol.

350
00:21:45,180 --> 00:21:47,599
I found out that the number of followers
of a Starlight artist,

351
00:21:47,932 --> 00:21:50,018
is more than Mongolia's population.

352
00:21:51,061 --> 00:21:52,604
It made me wonder.

353
00:21:53,063 --> 00:21:55,440
About what kind of people are here.

354
00:22:09,621 --> 00:22:11,623
This is it.
Music coming out of my fingertips.

355
00:22:11,873 --> 00:22:14,501
Yes, it's coming. This is it.

356
00:22:26,179 --> 00:22:29,599
Wow, that was sick!
I haven't felt that in a long time.

357
00:22:29,808 --> 00:22:31,393
- Are you trying to hit me?
- No, high five.

358
00:22:33,103 --> 00:22:35,230
That was great.
I love doing that.

359
00:22:42,237 --> 00:22:45,490
The source of inspiration
for what you've just heard,

360
00:22:45,824 --> 00:22:47,242
are my fans.

361
00:22:47,909 --> 00:22:49,411
I'm always thankful for my fans.

362
00:22:50,412 --> 00:22:52,789
This is a gift from my Chinese fans.

363
00:22:53,665 --> 00:22:54,916
Oh, this is...

364
00:22:56,668 --> 00:22:59,421
It's a receipt from buying my album.

365
00:23:01,756 --> 00:23:04,676
Dear Chinese fans, hello.
Thank you so much.

366
00:23:05,468 --> 00:23:07,721
I hope SOUL's new album does well.

367
00:23:08,304 --> 00:23:10,557
I should promote their album
on my social network.

368
00:23:20,525 --> 00:23:24,279
I believe it was fate
that brought me and music together.

369
00:23:24,821 --> 00:23:27,032
I didn't go and find music.

370
00:23:28,241 --> 00:23:29,451
Music found me.

371
00:23:32,620 --> 00:23:34,122
You don't "find" inspiration.

372
00:23:34,205 --> 00:23:37,459
Many people say
that they "find" inspiration,

373
00:23:37,542 --> 00:23:39,044
but they are lying.

374
00:23:39,127 --> 00:23:40,462
To tell you the truth,

375
00:23:41,296 --> 00:23:42,630
inspiration finds you.

376
00:23:43,340 --> 00:23:47,761
It doesn't come if you do nothing.
You need faith.

377
00:23:48,178 --> 00:23:52,182
The faith of bringing an umbrella
to a rainmaking ritual.

378
00:23:54,517 --> 00:23:55,810
SOUL?

379
00:23:57,354 --> 00:23:58,855
I do want them to do well.

380
00:23:59,439 --> 00:24:02,567
Some say if idols write their own songs,

381
00:24:02,859 --> 00:24:06,696
this industry might become a harder place
for us producers.

382
00:24:07,072 --> 00:24:08,823
But in my opinion...

383
00:24:08,948 --> 00:24:12,452
It feels great to see the people
you worked with achieve something.

384
00:24:13,286 --> 00:24:16,373
I feel great that Sooyong's song
was made the title.

385
00:24:22,128 --> 00:24:23,129
Where...

386
00:24:24,089 --> 00:24:26,549
Where do you get these audition videos?

387
00:24:26,758 --> 00:24:30,679
Where do you get them?
I don't watch... I don't watch the TV.

388
00:24:31,096 --> 00:24:32,097
I don't...

389
00:24:39,771 --> 00:24:41,815
I wonder who's saying this garbage.

390
00:24:43,274 --> 00:24:45,360
Here's the difference between
the two songs.

391
00:24:45,777 --> 00:24:46,778
Listen closely.

392
00:24:50,615 --> 00:24:51,616
And mine.

393
00:24:59,708 --> 00:25:00,750
Yes.

394
00:25:01,209 --> 00:25:03,545
I don't go where men go.

395
00:25:04,504 --> 00:25:08,174
Even all four members of SOUL are men.

396
00:25:09,384 --> 00:25:10,635
I don't like men.

397
00:25:13,304 --> 00:25:16,224
To me, this new SOUL album,

398
00:25:17,142 --> 00:25:21,229
is the one to show the true colors
of SOUL

399
00:25:21,312 --> 00:25:26,151
If the listeners don't like it so much,
that's just too bad.

400
00:25:29,029 --> 00:25:30,572
About the so-called "success,"

401
00:25:31,364 --> 00:25:33,950
people have a common misunderstanding.

402
00:25:34,075 --> 00:25:37,120
They believe that good music comes
only from the top of the charts.

403
00:25:37,203 --> 00:25:38,580
But that's wrong.

404
00:25:38,955 --> 00:25:39,956
That's...

405
00:25:40,331 --> 00:25:43,084
A theory that I hold on to.

406
00:25:43,710 --> 00:25:47,130
Also, obsessing over the results
might lead to another failure.

407
00:25:47,797 --> 00:25:51,634
In that perspective,
I already am proud of SOUL

408
00:25:52,302 --> 00:25:54,971
They should be the ones
more nervous than me.

409
00:26:05,565 --> 00:26:06,608
What's this?

410
00:26:06,691 --> 00:26:09,944
Night, night, night!
I mean 12 in the night!

411
00:26:10,070 --> 00:26:13,198
It would feel real,
make the documentary more authentic.

412
00:26:14,074 --> 00:26:16,326
God, these idiots are so...

413
00:26:17,827 --> 00:26:18,912
Please delete this.

414
00:26:19,704 --> 00:26:21,956
I don't have to contact my lawyers, right?

415
00:26:55,073 --> 00:26:57,367
Oh, actually...

416
00:26:57,992 --> 00:27:01,663
Waiting for the album release
in the office was too tense.

417
00:27:01,746 --> 00:27:04,082
So I came out here
to drink a can of beer.

418
00:27:05,083 --> 00:27:06,167
And here I am.

419
00:27:09,421 --> 00:27:11,881
You're right. I had two.

420
00:27:14,009 --> 00:27:15,343
I wish the best for them.

421
00:27:16,302 --> 00:27:18,638
Of course, that's not me speaking
as their manager, but...

422
00:27:18,722 --> 00:27:21,391
They really put their best in this album.

423
00:27:21,516 --> 00:27:23,143
A lot of effort.

424
00:27:23,226 --> 00:27:25,478
I feel like I'm their mother!

425
00:27:30,650 --> 00:27:33,987
He's following me and asking
about these things too much.

426
00:27:34,070 --> 00:27:36,281
I mean, it's not the time
for him to be dating.

427
00:27:36,406 --> 00:27:39,826
After all, he should've read
the contract thoroughly.

428
00:27:45,915 --> 00:27:48,752
But think about chefs.

429
00:27:49,377 --> 00:27:53,298
They bring the most delicious food
to their customers,

430
00:27:53,381 --> 00:27:57,093
but they have an average meal
within a very short time.

431
00:27:57,177 --> 00:27:59,804
Likewise, idols put on a display of
romantic relationships,

432
00:28:00,263 --> 00:28:02,682
but they are prohibited from them.

433
00:28:02,766 --> 00:28:08,563
They might not be allowed to date,
but chefs always make a wonderful meal.

434
00:28:09,147 --> 00:28:11,775
I think the two are the same.

435
00:28:13,777 --> 00:28:14,986
I think I am too buzzed.

436
00:28:15,070 --> 00:28:17,530
Oh, my God.
This is my first interview.

437
00:28:19,991 --> 00:28:21,034
Thank you.

438
00:28:23,036 --> 00:28:24,162
Yes.

439
00:28:24,245 --> 00:28:25,580
Yes, you go ahead.

440
00:28:27,582 --> 00:28:29,292
Eunsung, thank you.

441
00:28:29,376 --> 00:28:30,919
Yes, thank you.

442
00:28:34,214 --> 00:28:35,715
Thank you.

443
00:28:51,439 --> 00:28:52,482
Sooyong?

444
00:28:53,817 --> 00:28:55,151
Why are you out here alone?

445
00:28:56,653 --> 00:28:57,654
So, you're here.

446
00:28:58,697 --> 00:28:59,864
What's up?

447
00:29:01,199 --> 00:29:03,618
Did you have a drink?

448
00:29:04,536 --> 00:29:05,787
Just a can of beer.

449
00:29:06,246 --> 00:29:07,664
I didn't know you drank.

450
00:29:07,914 --> 00:29:09,290
Is something wrong?

451
00:29:09,958 --> 00:29:11,626
Huh?
Oh, yes.

452
00:29:12,377 --> 00:29:13,545
Nothing serious.

453
00:29:14,129 --> 00:29:16,131
It's about that "no dating clause."

454
00:29:17,841 --> 00:29:19,300
That again?

455
00:29:19,884 --> 00:29:22,053
I told you already.
That's not up to me,

456
00:29:22,137 --> 00:29:23,888
- but up to Ms. Kang...
- No.

457
00:29:24,347 --> 00:29:25,348
I'm not complaining.

458
00:29:26,433 --> 00:29:28,601
I already signed the contract, anyway.

459
00:29:29,644 --> 00:29:31,312
No turning back.

460
00:29:31,396 --> 00:29:34,232
What?
So you did understand.

461
00:29:36,067 --> 00:29:37,402
But...

462
00:29:38,236 --> 00:29:42,407
Do managers, like us,
have a "three-year no dating clause?"

463
00:29:42,991 --> 00:29:44,159
Or something like that?

464
00:29:45,410 --> 00:29:47,370
There's no such thing for managers...

465
00:29:48,455 --> 00:29:52,959
But if I have to stay with you guys,
I won't be able to date for five years.

466
00:29:53,251 --> 00:29:54,294
Five?

467
00:29:54,586 --> 00:29:55,628
Yes.

468
00:29:59,049 --> 00:30:00,050
Then,

469
00:30:01,676 --> 00:30:03,011
since it's 11:51,

470
00:30:06,097 --> 00:30:09,267
the album's not out
and my career didn't start yet, right?

471
00:30:10,977 --> 00:30:12,020
Yes.

472
00:30:20,987 --> 00:30:21,988
Eunsung.

473
00:30:22,739 --> 00:30:23,782
Yeah?

474
00:30:28,995 --> 00:30:30,413
I have feelings for you.

475
00:30:33,708 --> 00:30:34,709
What?

476
00:30:35,794 --> 00:30:37,045
I'm reporting to you.

477
00:30:37,921 --> 00:30:41,508
You told me to do so,
if I come to like someone.

478
00:30:47,305 --> 00:30:50,767
Are you shooting something?
Is there a hidden camera?

479
00:31:26,177 --> 00:31:27,220
Sooyong.

480
00:31:28,763 --> 00:31:30,098
I am...

481
00:31:32,058 --> 00:31:33,059
I know.

482
00:31:35,228 --> 00:31:37,063
But if I don't tell you now,

483
00:31:38,398 --> 00:31:40,400
I'm going to regret it for three years.

484
00:31:45,447 --> 00:31:47,198
I just wanted you to know.

485
00:31:48,700 --> 00:31:49,951
Just this once.

486
00:31:55,206 --> 00:31:56,666
I should go now.

487
00:31:58,209 --> 00:31:59,878
Finish your beer.

488
00:34:13,762 --> 00:34:15,513
Sweet kiss...

489
00:34:20,727 --> 00:34:22,145
Number 51...

490
00:34:22,228 --> 00:34:23,563
- It's still there.
- It's hot.

491
00:34:23,646 --> 00:34:27,150
Irib, what's wrong?
Do you have a problem?

492
00:34:27,233 --> 00:34:30,445
So you want to change the title
to Kevin's song?

493
00:34:30,528 --> 00:34:35,116
They're doing well with the current title,
and they are passionate.

494
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,743
Our fandom's also...

495
00:34:37,077 --> 00:34:38,620
That tiny fandom?

496
00:34:40,789 --> 00:34:43,375
I Like Your Dream
is a really good song.

497
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,418
How's Sooyong?

498
00:34:46,461 --> 00:34:49,756
You might lose something valuable
by using that power.

499
00:34:50,215 --> 00:34:52,926
Something very valuable in your life.
