1
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:35,895
Mom.

2
00:01:37,230 --> 00:01:39,899
You lied to me, Mom.

3
00:01:43,002 --> 00:01:45,705
The seizures will keep coming.

4
00:01:45,772 --> 00:01:48,174
Every time you experience one,
there will be ringing in your ears,

5
00:01:48,441 --> 00:01:50,944
and your hearing
will gradually deteriorate.

6
00:01:51,411 --> 00:01:53,413
I will give you medication,

7
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,216
but it's not for recovery,
it's merely to alleviate the symptoms.

8
00:01:58,618 --> 00:01:59,953
You said

9
00:02:00,653 --> 00:02:03,490
we are only given hardships
that we can overcome.

10
00:02:05,325 --> 00:02:06,759
But that doesn't seem

11
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,162
to be the case for me.

12
00:02:13,166 --> 00:02:14,801
The hardship that has come my way

13
00:02:15,835 --> 00:02:18,104
is so overwhelming and cruel

14
00:02:19,038 --> 00:02:20,173
for me

15
00:02:21,374 --> 00:02:22,575
to handle.

16
00:02:27,147 --> 00:02:28,148
Mom.

17
00:02:32,152 --> 00:02:33,520
I...

18
00:02:35,388 --> 00:02:39,359
will have to say goodbye
to my beautiful dreams very soon.

19
00:02:42,195 --> 00:02:43,463
What...

20
00:02:45,865 --> 00:02:47,100
should I do?

21
00:03:08,154 --> 00:03:09,989
LETTER OF RESIGNATION

22
00:03:15,395 --> 00:03:16,529
What are you doing?

23
00:03:16,596 --> 00:03:18,131
As you have promised,

24
00:03:19,832 --> 00:03:21,834
you have to make sure my students

25
00:03:22,569 --> 00:03:24,137
won't be harmed.

26
00:03:24,504 --> 00:03:28,274
My credit rating at the bank
is a triple A-plus.

27
00:03:29,342 --> 00:03:32,045
I will keep my word,
so please rest assured.

28
00:03:36,449 --> 00:03:39,485
DIRECTOR
SI BEOM-SU

29
00:03:41,721 --> 00:03:44,324
Thank you.

30
00:03:49,095 --> 00:03:50,563
Since you're leaving,

31
00:03:51,431 --> 00:03:53,066
let me be honest with you.

32
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:04,510
I'm sure things were tough for you

33
00:04:04,844 --> 00:04:06,646
because of me,

34
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,349
but you made things tough for me, too.

35
00:04:11,084 --> 00:04:12,986
With Mr. Jung's support behind you,

36
00:04:13,152 --> 00:04:15,622
you continually threatened my authority.

37
00:04:17,957 --> 00:04:21,294
I had no such intentions.

38
00:04:22,195 --> 00:04:23,997
Of course I know that.

39
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:26,332
But

40
00:04:27,166 --> 00:04:28,568
here's the thing.

41
00:04:29,469 --> 00:04:31,704
Some people put me on edge
just by their presence.

42
00:04:33,439 --> 00:04:34,774
And you're one of them.

43
00:04:35,508 --> 00:04:37,677
You're a good teacher.

44
00:04:38,011 --> 00:04:41,981
Your only flaw is that you lack charisma.

45
00:04:42,548 --> 00:04:45,652
But if you make up for that,
you'll be an excellent teacher.

46
00:04:49,789 --> 00:04:50,923
Thank you

47
00:04:53,026 --> 00:04:55,128
-for your advice.
-Thank you for your hard work.

48
00:05:02,802 --> 00:05:04,771
What are you two doing?

49
00:05:08,007 --> 00:05:10,543
I should get going.

50
00:05:10,610 --> 00:05:13,279
-Oh, okay.
-Yes.

51
00:05:18,718 --> 00:05:20,253
Don't look at me like that.

52
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,955
I was bidding him farewell.

53
00:05:23,523 --> 00:05:25,525
"Farewell"?

54
00:05:26,726 --> 00:05:28,094
Ta-da!

55
00:05:28,261 --> 00:05:31,197
The white flag of defeat.

56
00:05:32,498 --> 00:05:36,069
I finally got him to resign.

57
00:05:36,536 --> 00:05:37,537
Pardon?

58
00:05:43,643 --> 00:05:44,811
Mr. Kang!

59
00:05:49,082 --> 00:05:51,851
What happened? Why did you resign?

60
00:05:51,918 --> 00:05:53,286
What are you going to do?

61
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:56,089
Do you have an offer somewhere else?

62
00:05:56,989 --> 00:06:00,293
-No.
-How can you leave without a backup plan?

63
00:06:01,127 --> 00:06:02,695
I...

64
00:06:02,962 --> 00:06:05,398
Don't you know that it's almost impossible

65
00:06:05,465 --> 00:06:07,800
to find an opening these days?

66
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:10,069
The competition is probably
greater than 200 to 1.

67
00:06:10,136 --> 00:06:12,171
With your credentials,
you won't be able to find a job.

68
00:06:12,238 --> 00:06:15,308
Leaving like this means you are leaving
the profession of teaching altogether.

69
00:06:16,609 --> 00:06:18,144
Is that what this means?

70
00:06:18,411 --> 00:06:21,414
How about the kids?
Aren't you worried about them?

71
00:06:25,685 --> 00:06:26,986
I am,

72
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,055
more than anyone else.

73
00:06:30,723 --> 00:06:32,458
That's why I'm leaving them

74
00:06:33,126 --> 00:06:34,494
in your care.

75
00:06:35,895 --> 00:06:38,965
You remember what we talked about, right?

76
00:06:41,467 --> 00:06:42,335
Please

77
00:06:45,638 --> 00:06:46,973
take good care of them.

78
00:07:03,055 --> 00:07:04,223
Hey.

79
00:07:04,957 --> 00:07:06,058
Where's Sam-dong?

80
00:07:06,325 --> 00:07:09,295
He left home before I did,
but I haven't seen him around here.

81
00:07:10,129 --> 00:07:13,332
He must be slacking off
because it's the end of the semester.

82
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,502
In any case, you did a good job this year.

83
00:07:16,569 --> 00:07:20,273
You are now in the arts class,
not the college track class.

84
00:07:20,740 --> 00:07:22,074
Enjoy yourselves over the break.

85
00:07:22,141 --> 00:07:23,576
There's no time for that.

86
00:07:24,010 --> 00:07:25,611
The winter classes will begin right away.

87
00:07:25,912 --> 00:07:27,747
-And there are special lectures.
-Yes.

88
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,116
This can't be called a break.

89
00:07:30,183 --> 00:07:33,719
We have a special songwriting seminar
as soon as break starts.

90
00:07:34,487 --> 00:07:36,722
It's not fair.

91
00:07:38,291 --> 00:07:39,192
What is it?

92
00:07:39,258 --> 00:07:41,060
Are you fully recovered now?

93
00:07:41,227 --> 00:07:43,229
-Isn't hepatitis A contagious?
-Wow!

94
00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:45,097
I don't believe this.

95
00:07:46,766 --> 00:07:49,402
-I'm still sick. What are you going to do?
-Get away from me.

96
00:07:49,469 --> 00:07:53,206
-I'm going to spread it to you.
-I've got a call.

97
00:07:58,077 --> 00:07:59,178
Hello?

98
00:08:00,179 --> 00:08:01,314
What?

99
00:08:02,148 --> 00:08:03,382
Top Entertainment?

100
00:08:18,097 --> 00:08:19,265
Excuse me.

101
00:08:21,968 --> 00:08:24,437
What are you doing here?

102
00:08:24,604 --> 00:08:25,605
I don't know.

103
00:08:26,072 --> 00:08:28,140
Mr. Yun wants to see me.

104
00:08:30,743 --> 00:08:32,512
Which floor is his office at?

105
00:08:36,082 --> 00:08:37,917
A contract?

106
00:08:38,084 --> 00:08:39,018
Yes.

107
00:08:39,785 --> 00:08:42,321
We're thinking of making you

108
00:08:42,388 --> 00:08:44,090
a new member of Group K.

109
00:08:45,458 --> 00:08:47,693
But why me all of the sudden?

110
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,128
It's not that sudden.

111
00:08:49,395 --> 00:08:52,198
The truth is, I've had my eyes on you
for quite some time.

112
00:08:52,465 --> 00:08:54,767
I was very impressed with you
at the Dance of the Year,

113
00:08:54,834 --> 00:08:57,103
and I've been monitoring
your monthly evaluation grades.

114
00:08:57,370 --> 00:09:00,439
Your performance in Japan
was remarkable, too.

115
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:02,508
I see...

116
00:09:03,509 --> 00:09:04,944
Here.

117
00:09:06,312 --> 00:09:08,114
Read it for yourself.

118
00:09:08,180 --> 00:09:10,316
The terms aren't bad at all
for a rookie singer.

119
00:09:10,583 --> 00:09:12,618
Plus, you get to join
an established group.

120
00:09:12,685 --> 00:09:14,320
That's a rare opportunity.

121
00:09:14,487 --> 00:09:15,488
You know that, right?

122
00:09:17,023 --> 00:09:19,525
-Yes.
-Take some time to think about it

123
00:09:19,825 --> 00:09:21,627
and get back to me
by the end of the month.

124
00:09:22,895 --> 00:09:24,297
Okay.

125
00:09:26,299 --> 00:09:27,400
Okay.

126
00:09:41,180 --> 00:09:43,049
It doesn't hurt at all.

127
00:09:45,785 --> 00:09:46,886
Am I dreaming?

128
00:09:52,291 --> 00:09:53,759
That hurt.

129
00:09:56,495 --> 00:10:00,833
TOP ENTERTAINMENT CONTRACT

130
00:10:03,235 --> 00:10:05,805
He said the terms
aren't bad for a rookie singer.

131
00:10:05,972 --> 00:10:07,206
Is that true?

132
00:10:07,707 --> 00:10:09,275
Yes. They're not bad at all.

133
00:10:09,442 --> 00:10:11,677
Really? Are you sure?

134
00:10:11,744 --> 00:10:13,212
You must really want to debut.

135
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:14,380
Of course!

136
00:10:14,513 --> 00:10:15,781
If I make my debut,

137
00:10:15,982 --> 00:10:19,919
I can pay off your debt and my dad's.

138
00:10:21,787 --> 00:10:25,224
If that's the reason, don't do it.

139
00:10:25,958 --> 00:10:29,362
I got a pretty low interest rate on the
loan, so it doesn't even feel like debt.

140
00:10:29,729 --> 00:10:33,199
And making your debut
doesn't mean you'll suddenly be rich.

141
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,769
If paying off debt is your reason
for doing this,

142
00:10:37,136 --> 00:10:38,371
I'm against it.

143
00:10:39,672 --> 00:10:42,208
You have to be completely sure

144
00:10:42,375 --> 00:10:44,410
before you sign a contract like this.

145
00:10:44,844 --> 00:10:46,212
But you said one loses courage

146
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,848
if one thinks too hard.

147
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:55,054
That all depends on the situation.

148
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:58,624
What are you doing?
Please help me with the bags.

149
00:10:58,691 --> 00:11:01,360
I should've never let this one come along.

150
00:11:01,427 --> 00:11:03,095
She just got in the way. Oh, my fingers.

151
00:11:03,362 --> 00:11:07,099
I was nice enough
to take you to the supermarket,

152
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:09,568
but you didn't even pretend to help me.

153
00:11:09,869 --> 00:11:12,571
It's child abuse if you force me
to carry heavy things.

154
00:11:12,638 --> 00:11:13,539
You little...

155
00:11:13,606 --> 00:11:16,375
Hey, Hye-seong.
Have you seen Sam-dong today?

156
00:11:16,442 --> 00:11:19,311
Sam-dong? I saw him
when he left this morning.

157
00:11:19,378 --> 00:11:21,213
Did he say he was going to school?

158
00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:23,749
No. He said he was going home.

159
00:11:23,816 --> 00:11:25,751
He said not to call him.

160
00:11:26,185 --> 00:11:27,453
What's gotten into him?

161
00:11:28,387 --> 00:11:30,122
But he's even signed up
for the special lecture.

162
00:11:30,923 --> 00:11:31,891
Hey.

163
00:11:32,558 --> 00:11:35,561
It's simple. Although Sam-dong's done
very well adapting to Seoul,

164
00:11:35,628 --> 00:11:37,296
I'm sure he's homesick.

165
00:11:37,363 --> 00:11:41,333
This is the first time
he's left home and his mom.

166
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,736
It looked like he and his mom
were very close.

167
00:11:43,936 --> 00:11:45,104
It's so obvious.

168
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:47,907
Get me something to munch on from there.

169
00:11:48,641 --> 00:11:49,842
How about dried seaweed?

170
00:12:10,496 --> 00:12:12,031
SONG SAM-DONG

171
00:12:14,567 --> 00:12:17,837
Still, he could've told me he was going.

172
00:15:51,850 --> 00:15:54,119
Song Sam-dong. Here.

173
00:15:56,121 --> 00:16:00,092
If you tell anyone I work here,
you're dead meat.

174
00:16:00,893 --> 00:16:03,762
I'm just working part-time over the break.

175
00:16:04,663 --> 00:16:06,231
As a matter of fact,

176
00:16:06,298 --> 00:16:09,335
a lot of kids from our school
work at clubs around this area.

177
00:16:15,274 --> 00:16:17,810
Aren't you going home?

178
00:16:18,143 --> 00:16:20,212
I have to clean up here
and get home myself.

179
00:16:24,850 --> 00:16:26,352
I have nowhere to go.

180
00:16:26,418 --> 00:16:28,053
What are you talking about?

181
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,789
You're staying at Mr. Kang's, right?

182
00:16:34,293 --> 00:16:35,494
There are

183
00:16:37,696 --> 00:16:39,098
no sounds there.

184
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:42,768
But here, the sounds...

185
00:16:44,870 --> 00:16:46,238
are really loud

186
00:16:48,707 --> 00:16:50,576
so it doesn't feel like they'll run away.

187
00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:54,680
Is that a roundabout way of saying
you ran away from home?

188
00:16:57,249 --> 00:16:58,350
Song Sam-dong.

189
00:17:08,660 --> 00:17:10,396
MUSIC INSTRUCTOR WANTED

190
00:17:11,430 --> 00:17:12,498
MUSIC INSTRUCTOR WANTED

191
00:17:17,936 --> 00:17:18,871
Music instructor...

192
00:17:18,937 --> 00:17:21,240
Starting next week,
Si-hyuk, So-hyeon, and Tae-san

193
00:17:21,340 --> 00:17:24,710
will begin recording the next album,
so check your schedules.

194
00:17:25,210 --> 00:17:28,047
Jason and Ri-a, you have a photo shoot.

195
00:17:28,113 --> 00:17:29,848
It's an eight-day shoot in England,

196
00:17:30,082 --> 00:17:32,651
so think of it as your vacation
and have a good time.

197
00:17:33,118 --> 00:17:35,621
Is it okay if I don't go?

198
00:17:35,988 --> 00:17:37,189
Why?

199
00:17:38,924 --> 00:17:41,660
There are a lot of special classes
I need to take over the break,

200
00:17:41,727 --> 00:17:44,463
including the one on songwriting.
I also have Japanese classes.

201
00:17:44,863 --> 00:17:47,933
What's up with you these days?
You're working way too hard.

202
00:17:48,667 --> 00:17:50,536
To hone my competitive edge as a singer,

203
00:17:51,437 --> 00:17:53,605
I think it's vital that I keep
learning new things.

204
00:17:56,175 --> 00:17:57,309
Okay.

205
00:17:57,810 --> 00:17:59,678
Postpone Jason's photo shoot.

206
00:17:59,845 --> 00:18:03,048
I suppose it's a good thing for us
that you want to study songwriting.

207
00:18:03,415 --> 00:18:05,717
There aren't
many singer-songwriters these days.

208
00:18:06,051 --> 00:18:07,252
The glasses look good on you.

209
00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:10,322
I'd like to take
the songwriting class, too.

210
00:18:11,623 --> 00:18:13,058
Me, too.

211
00:18:13,125 --> 00:18:15,961
I can't stay a five-second singer forever.

212
00:18:16,562 --> 00:18:19,298
Since when have we been
so academically inclined?

213
00:18:19,565 --> 00:18:20,732
You don't say.

214
00:18:34,146 --> 00:18:35,147
What?

215
00:18:36,982 --> 00:18:39,818
This is Jason's report card.

216
00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:44,923
You should've worked hard
when you got the solo part.

217
00:18:45,090 --> 00:18:46,825
You should've been angry
when it was taken away.

218
00:18:46,892 --> 00:18:48,760
You should've also gone
to your Japanese class.

219
00:18:48,927 --> 00:18:52,164
And you shouldn't have to come to me

220
00:18:53,132 --> 00:18:54,500
on the day of your showcase.

221
00:18:56,135 --> 00:18:57,936
You have no ambition.

222
00:18:58,637 --> 00:19:01,306
You don't have a dream or a goal, do you?

223
00:19:04,576 --> 00:19:05,511
Did Jason

224
00:19:06,745 --> 00:19:09,882
put this up so that I would see it?

225
00:19:15,754 --> 00:19:17,890
Jason! I saw this.

226
00:19:18,056 --> 00:19:20,526
You're the best, the very best!

227
00:19:37,476 --> 00:19:39,111
My goodness!

228
00:19:49,988 --> 00:19:51,190
Ms. Si.

229
00:19:51,957 --> 00:19:52,991
Yes?

230
00:19:54,526 --> 00:19:55,594
Have you...

231
00:20:07,773 --> 00:20:10,042
seen Oh-hyeok, I mean, Mr. Kang?

232
00:20:10,175 --> 00:20:12,544
I haven't seen him for two days.

233
00:20:15,814 --> 00:20:18,617
You haven't heard? Mr. Kang has...

234
00:20:21,153 --> 00:20:22,254
Gosh.

235
00:20:24,656 --> 00:20:27,593
-Why are you so startled?
-We're fine.

236
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:29,695
I wasn't startled.

237
00:20:30,062 --> 00:20:32,798
Have you seen Mr. Kang?

238
00:20:33,665 --> 00:20:35,500
I need to get something from him today.

239
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:40,439
You haven't heard, either?

240
00:20:40,772 --> 00:20:44,476
-Heard what?
-Mr. Kang handed in a resignation letter.

241
00:20:44,543 --> 00:20:46,378
-Pardon?
-Pardon?

242
00:20:46,545 --> 00:20:47,746
But why, all of a sudden?

243
00:20:48,513 --> 00:20:52,351
I'm sure you know about the fake showcase
and the nightclub incident.

244
00:20:52,618 --> 00:20:55,721
Mr. Si took issue with those two things.

245
00:20:57,089 --> 00:21:00,525
In order to save the kids
from being penalized,

246
00:21:01,093 --> 00:21:03,161
he took responsibility
for everything and resigned.

247
00:21:03,328 --> 00:21:04,997
Mr. Kang quit?

248
00:21:06,765 --> 00:21:08,934
-Hye-mi.
-Really?

249
00:21:10,836 --> 00:21:12,104
For us?

250
00:21:13,105 --> 00:21:16,275
Since Mr. Kang has resigned,
we have to hire a new teacher.

251
00:21:17,042 --> 00:21:19,378
Post a job ad in the
Ministry of Education's bulletin board.

252
00:21:19,911 --> 00:21:23,849
Unlike somebody else,
I don't make special appointments.

253
00:21:24,216 --> 00:21:25,384
Through fair...

254
00:21:29,921 --> 00:21:33,659
You gave Mr. Kang the ax, didn't you?

255
00:21:33,725 --> 00:21:36,828
Mind your language, young lady.

256
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:40,132
Hye-mi, just calm down...

257
00:21:42,301 --> 00:21:44,036
He's not someone who would
quit on his own.

258
00:21:45,737 --> 00:21:47,572
What did you say to him?

259
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,209
Leave her be, Mr. Yang.

260
00:21:58,016 --> 00:22:01,219
I didn't say or do anything to Mr. Kang.

261
00:22:01,620 --> 00:22:04,523
He realized he wasn't
good enough and left.

262
00:22:05,824 --> 00:22:09,728
I'd like to make this clear,
should there be any misunderstandings.

263
00:22:11,263 --> 00:22:14,666
Mr. Kang received the lowest
teacher evaluation rating

264
00:22:14,733 --> 00:22:17,102
for three, I mean, four years in a row.

265
00:22:17,936 --> 00:22:21,540
With such a record, he should've been
dismissed a long time ago.

266
00:22:21,606 --> 00:22:23,008
Why did he get

267
00:22:24,209 --> 00:22:25,610
the lowest rating?

268
00:22:26,712 --> 00:22:28,647
The regular college track class

269
00:22:29,014 --> 00:22:31,216
did better than all the other classes.

270
00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:34,720
So why did he get the lowest rating?

271
00:22:35,420 --> 00:22:36,355
That...

272
00:22:36,421 --> 00:22:39,725
I find that strange, too.

273
00:22:40,258 --> 00:22:42,961
-Me, too.
-There seem to be some discrepancies...

274
00:22:43,028 --> 00:22:45,364
His students' grades did go up
a little this semester.

275
00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:47,532
But that's not enough.

276
00:22:48,834 --> 00:22:51,570
The evaluation is based on
a wide range of data collected--

277
00:22:51,636 --> 00:22:52,971
I don't get it.

278
00:22:54,573 --> 00:22:57,242
-What more do you need?
-A lot more.

279
00:23:01,913 --> 00:23:03,648
Given where you kids stand right now,

280
00:23:03,715 --> 00:23:04,950
it's hard to say

281
00:23:05,016 --> 00:23:07,853
you're significantly better than the kids
from the other classes.

282
00:23:08,754 --> 00:23:09,654
Then

283
00:23:10,288 --> 00:23:12,157
what else do we need to show you?

284
00:23:12,224 --> 00:23:13,325
Well...

285
00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:17,162
Right.

286
00:23:17,863 --> 00:23:20,399
You have a special class
on songwriting this break, right?

287
00:23:21,166 --> 00:23:25,003
Why don't all three of you get A's?

288
00:23:26,538 --> 00:23:27,406
Ms. Si.

289
00:23:27,472 --> 00:23:30,375
If everyone gets an A,
we will acknowledge Mr. Kang's skills

290
00:23:30,542 --> 00:23:32,411
as an educator.

291
00:23:33,712 --> 00:23:35,180
That's the least you can do

292
00:23:35,514 --> 00:23:38,383
to prove Mr. Kang's worth

293
00:23:38,984 --> 00:23:41,086
to Mr. Si and the faculty.

294
00:23:42,287 --> 00:23:43,422
Right?

295
00:23:43,588 --> 00:23:47,392
That seems fair enough.

296
00:23:48,093 --> 00:23:49,928
But getting an A can't be easy.

297
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:52,531
I heard the songwriting instructor
doesn't give out many A's.

298
00:23:52,697 --> 00:23:56,535
He grades on a curve
and only gives out three A's per class.

299
00:23:56,701 --> 00:23:57,869
That's fine.

300
00:23:59,104 --> 00:24:01,006
Just promise me

301
00:24:01,706 --> 00:24:05,277
that if all three of us get A's,
you will reinstate Mr. Kang.

302
00:24:07,712 --> 00:24:08,914
Ms. Si.

303
00:24:09,815 --> 00:24:11,049
Let me have a word with you.

304
00:24:22,327 --> 00:24:25,197
Are you out of your mind?
We managed to kick him out.

305
00:24:25,263 --> 00:24:28,033
-Why complicate matters?
-What else can we do?

306
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,068
Didn't you see how
the other teachers reacted?

307
00:24:30,135 --> 00:24:31,937
They seem to agree with Hye-mi.

308
00:24:32,003 --> 00:24:35,440
The opposition will only grow
if you don't do this.

309
00:24:35,607 --> 00:24:39,478
But what if they all really do get A's?

310
00:24:39,544 --> 00:24:41,713
That's close to impossible.

311
00:24:41,780 --> 00:24:44,015
It's a one-in-a-million chance,

312
00:24:44,182 --> 00:24:46,084
so don't worry.

313
00:24:46,251 --> 00:24:48,453
-Gyeong-jin.
-Listen to me, Dad.

314
00:24:57,229 --> 00:24:58,864
Did you ask for me?

315
00:25:00,131 --> 00:25:02,767
Yes. Come sit down, Baek-hee.

316
00:25:14,212 --> 00:25:17,849
-I wanted to talk to you in private--
-Wait.

317
00:25:18,416 --> 00:25:21,553
What do you think
about a hairstyle change?

318
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,190
I think I'd look better on stage
with lighter hair.

319
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:29,127
Ms. Si told me my range has improved.

320
00:25:29,194 --> 00:25:31,196
-If I practice just a bit more--
-Yes?

321
00:25:32,564 --> 00:25:34,466
But the thing is,

322
00:25:35,166 --> 00:25:38,637
I'm afraid Group K needs a lineup change.

323
00:25:38,937 --> 00:25:42,307
I'll work hard.

324
00:25:42,841 --> 00:25:45,677
I'll do whatever you tell me to.

325
00:25:48,947 --> 00:25:51,216
But there's nothing I can ask you to do.

326
00:25:51,683 --> 00:25:55,754
All the other kids have packed schedules.
But no one's asking for you.

327
00:25:56,021 --> 00:25:58,857
We offered to send you for free with Ri-a,
but they don't want you.

328
00:25:59,124 --> 00:26:02,294
They don't even want you
as a backup dancer.

329
00:26:03,728 --> 00:26:08,033
I don't need hard workers.

330
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,834
I need superstars.

331
00:26:10,535 --> 00:26:11,870
I'll be...

332
00:26:13,071 --> 00:26:14,239
a superstar.

333
00:26:16,908 --> 00:26:18,743
You said it's good for the company

334
00:26:18,910 --> 00:26:21,146
if we learn songwriting, right?

335
00:26:21,513 --> 00:26:23,348
I've studied songwriting before.

336
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:25,584
And I'm taking the special
songwriting class this break.

337
00:26:26,151 --> 00:26:29,321
I'll show you my potential with my grade.

338
00:26:29,387 --> 00:26:31,823
Can't your decision wait
until after my grade comes out?

339
00:26:31,890 --> 00:26:34,125
Please?

340
00:26:38,463 --> 00:26:39,564
So...

341
00:26:39,998 --> 00:26:43,535
all three of us have to get A's
on the songwriting exam

342
00:26:43,902 --> 00:26:46,171
to get Mr. Kang back?

343
00:26:47,072 --> 00:26:49,975
-Yes.
-How would we do that?

344
00:26:50,609 --> 00:26:54,346
Wait. Sam-dong!
You said he went home, right?

345
00:26:56,648 --> 00:26:57,916
We need to get him here soon.

346
00:26:57,983 --> 00:27:01,152
But what about roll call today?

347
00:27:01,519 --> 00:27:03,822
Attendance makes up
a good chunk of the grade.

348
00:27:04,189 --> 00:27:05,857
Someone will have to pretend
to be Sam-dong.

349
00:27:08,860 --> 00:27:10,795
Impersonate his voice.

350
00:27:11,429 --> 00:27:13,264
What?

351
00:27:13,732 --> 00:27:14,766
Me?

352
00:27:14,933 --> 00:27:16,534
I can't do his dialect.

353
00:27:20,238 --> 00:27:23,041
Hello, ma'am.

354
00:27:23,708 --> 00:27:25,844
-This is Hye-mi.
-My goodness.

355
00:27:26,244 --> 00:27:30,015
What's going on, Hye-mi? How is Sam-dong?

356
00:27:30,649 --> 00:27:32,951
What? Yes, he's well.

357
00:27:33,018 --> 00:27:36,054
The thing is,
I dreamt about Sam-dong last night.

358
00:27:36,121 --> 00:27:38,590
He kept calling for me,

359
00:27:38,657 --> 00:27:40,258
so I've been worried all day.

360
00:27:40,525 --> 00:27:42,394
He's okay, right?

361
00:27:43,628 --> 00:27:44,763
Yes.

362
00:27:45,964 --> 00:27:47,165
Ma'am.

363
00:27:47,532 --> 00:27:48,733
Song Sam-dong.

364
00:27:49,367 --> 00:27:50,902
Present, sir.

365
00:27:51,436 --> 00:27:52,604
Sam-dong.

366
00:27:53,338 --> 00:27:55,206
I'm here.

367
00:27:55,707 --> 00:27:56,908
Something's off.

368
00:27:58,743 --> 00:28:01,346
See. I knew it.

369
00:28:02,380 --> 00:28:03,682
I'm not going to do it.

370
00:28:05,350 --> 00:28:06,718
Sam-dong...

371
00:28:08,620 --> 00:28:09,754
has disappeared.

372
00:28:14,859 --> 00:28:17,228
-Hi.
-Hey.

373
00:28:17,862 --> 00:28:19,831
Where can Sam-dong be?

374
00:28:20,131 --> 00:28:22,000
He's probably

375
00:28:22,133 --> 00:28:24,335
at a friend's or something.

376
00:28:24,402 --> 00:28:26,137
But he has no friends in Seoul.

377
00:28:26,771 --> 00:28:28,006
Don't worry.

378
00:28:31,776 --> 00:28:33,645
-It's Jason.
-What's going on?

379
00:28:33,812 --> 00:28:35,814
Group K kids are taking a special lecture?

380
00:28:35,980 --> 00:28:38,016
But aren't they really busy these days?

381
00:28:38,083 --> 00:28:39,918
I know. I thought their schedules
were packed.

382
00:28:45,323 --> 00:28:46,791
Listen up.

383
00:28:46,858 --> 00:28:48,460
Hello.

384
00:28:48,526 --> 00:28:52,230
The songwriter Mr. Ju Yeong-hun
will be your instructor

385
00:28:52,831 --> 00:28:54,632
for this special lecture.

386
00:28:54,699 --> 00:28:55,700
Nice to meet you.

387
00:28:57,335 --> 00:28:59,270
-You have a small head.
-You're handsome.

388
00:28:59,337 --> 00:29:00,972
You have a small head.

389
00:29:01,039 --> 00:29:04,142
-You're my ideal man.
-I must be popular with the students.

390
00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:08,046
I don't think so.

391
00:29:08,213 --> 00:29:11,015
If you guys keep at it,
he might really believe you.

392
00:29:11,282 --> 00:29:14,419
This special class is worth
100 extra credit points, you see.

393
00:29:14,486 --> 00:29:17,088
I don't think you're popular
with them per se.

394
00:29:17,155 --> 00:29:20,725
I think they're flattering you
to get good grades.

395
00:29:20,792 --> 00:29:22,327
Oh, I see.

396
00:29:22,393 --> 00:29:26,164
Plus, students who get A's
will get to be in the showcase.

397
00:29:26,231 --> 00:29:29,067
They're going to keep flattering you,

398
00:29:29,134 --> 00:29:30,435
so don't fall for it.

399
00:29:30,502 --> 00:29:32,137
Thank you for your advice.

400
00:29:32,203 --> 00:29:36,141
If you want to really thank me,
you can buy me dinner.

401
00:29:36,207 --> 00:29:39,577
I'm sorry. I'm married.

402
00:29:40,912 --> 00:29:42,113
Good luck, then.

403
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,582
How can he even think
I have such low standards?

404
00:29:44,649 --> 00:29:46,785
Look at that giant head of his.

405
00:29:46,851 --> 00:29:50,321
Gosh. What a temper.

406
00:29:50,488 --> 00:29:53,391
I feel sorry for the poor chap
who will end up marrying her.

407
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:56,861
Nice to meet you.
Let's do roll call first.

408
00:29:57,562 --> 00:29:59,164
Yun Baek-hee.

409
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:00,431
Here.

410
00:30:01,332 --> 00:30:03,501
-Lee Ri-a.
-Here.

411
00:30:03,835 --> 00:30:05,136
Song Sam-dong.

412
00:30:07,372 --> 00:30:09,774
Here.

413
00:30:10,241 --> 00:30:12,844
-Song Sam-dong.
-Present, sir.

414
00:30:14,445 --> 00:30:15,880
Jason.

415
00:30:17,982 --> 00:30:19,184
Kim Phil-sook?

416
00:30:19,250 --> 00:30:20,084
Yes?

417
00:30:20,585 --> 00:30:21,553
Here.

418
00:30:22,453 --> 00:30:25,723
Where can Oh-hyeok be?

419
00:30:29,494 --> 00:30:32,564
The number you have dialed...

420
00:30:32,630 --> 00:30:34,766
Turn on your phone!

421
00:30:34,999 --> 00:30:36,334
-The writing part.
-What?

422
00:30:36,401 --> 00:30:37,769
-The writing part.
-Okay.

423
00:30:37,836 --> 00:30:41,339
The first part, the writing part.
This part is very important.

424
00:30:41,439 --> 00:30:43,842
All right, let's go
to the multiple answers.

425
00:30:43,908 --> 00:30:47,579
The first, second, third, fourth, fifth.
Let's look at them in order.

426
00:30:47,679 --> 00:30:50,548
THE WORLD OF TRADITIONAL KOREAN POP
WITH KANG OH-HYEOK

427
00:30:50,715 --> 00:30:51,883
Hello.

428
00:30:52,884 --> 00:30:55,253
Korean trot music

429
00:30:55,954 --> 00:30:58,957
comes from the foxtrot,

430
00:30:59,023 --> 00:31:01,392
a dance that was once popular in America.

431
00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:04,529
Four-four time is the basic form.

432
00:31:05,029 --> 00:31:06,764
-It's...
-What is that?

433
00:31:18,877 --> 00:31:20,612
Come on.

434
00:31:20,678 --> 00:31:23,114
All you need is an extra chair.

435
00:31:23,481 --> 00:31:26,985
I sent you both Si-hyuk and Jason.
Let's give Baek-hee a chance.

436
00:31:27,252 --> 00:31:29,487
She can do Korean traditional opera,
and dance well, too.

437
00:31:29,554 --> 00:31:31,756
She has various talents.

438
00:31:32,023 --> 00:31:35,360
No, thanks. We don't use
tactics like that in our field anymore.

439
00:31:35,426 --> 00:31:38,496
Maybe next time.
Let's talk about this some other time.

440
00:31:39,030 --> 00:31:40,832
Things aren't easy for us, either.

441
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:42,467
-See you.
-All right. Bye.

442
00:31:42,634 --> 00:31:43,635
Take it easy.

443
00:31:45,136 --> 00:31:46,938
I guess that's that.

444
00:31:47,005 --> 00:31:48,973
Get Si-hyuk and Jason ready.

445
00:31:49,340 --> 00:31:50,642
You can change, Baek-hee.

446
00:31:51,776 --> 00:31:54,445
See? I'm doing all I can.

447
00:31:54,512 --> 00:31:58,049
You have to realize that it's you,
not me. Understand?

448
00:33:17,962 --> 00:33:20,198
To think about you

449
00:33:20,698 --> 00:33:23,568
As soon as I got home

450
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:26,004
Seeing myself like that made me realize

451
00:33:29,340 --> 00:33:30,341
Sam-dong.

452
00:33:33,878 --> 00:33:35,146
Hey, Song Sam-dong.

453
00:33:35,413 --> 00:33:37,448
I let you stay here one night,

454
00:33:38,016 --> 00:33:39,584
but that's it.

455
00:33:39,984 --> 00:33:41,085
I'm sorry,

456
00:33:41,919 --> 00:33:43,287
but you have to go.

457
00:33:46,491 --> 00:33:48,526
Let's get going. Come on.

458
00:34:01,839 --> 00:34:03,007
What's up with him?

459
00:34:10,648 --> 00:34:11,749
Sam-dong!

460
00:34:12,283 --> 00:34:13,284
Sam-dong?

461
00:34:31,035 --> 00:34:32,203
I'm sorry.

462
00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:36,040
Where can he be?

463
00:34:41,379 --> 00:34:42,413
Hello?

464
00:34:44,282 --> 00:34:46,350
What's up, In-seong?

465
00:34:47,685 --> 00:34:48,820
What?

466
00:34:49,787 --> 00:34:51,089
Where are you?

467
00:34:55,526 --> 00:34:58,963
Please get him out of here.
He's stubborn as a mule.

468
00:35:14,479 --> 00:35:16,981
Hey! Are you okay?

469
00:35:18,583 --> 00:35:19,884
Are you hurt?

470
00:35:23,554 --> 00:35:24,989
When did you get your hair cut?

471
00:35:30,561 --> 00:35:32,029
Let's talk outside.

472
00:35:34,432 --> 00:35:35,733
Let's go.

473
00:35:43,975 --> 00:35:45,042
No.

474
00:35:45,109 --> 00:35:48,246
What's wrong with you? What's going on?

475
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,983
You shouldn't be here right now.

476
00:35:52,183 --> 00:35:53,217
Let's go.

477
00:35:58,990 --> 00:36:00,324
I don't want to go.

478
00:36:08,466 --> 00:36:09,467
Sam-dong.

479
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,341
I don't know why you're acting like this,

480
00:36:18,009 --> 00:36:19,410
but let's get you out of here first.

481
00:36:19,911 --> 00:36:22,180
If we get caught at a place
like this again,

482
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,115
we're sure to be expelled.

483
00:36:30,555 --> 00:36:31,822
You idiot!

484
00:36:33,057 --> 00:36:35,193
Mr. Kang had to resign because of us.

485
00:36:36,327 --> 00:36:40,031
Because we were caught in that nightclub
and because of the fake showcase.

486
00:36:40,364 --> 00:36:42,166
He lost his job.

487
00:36:43,734 --> 00:36:47,104
We need you if we are going
to get Mr. Kang back.

488
00:36:47,171 --> 00:36:48,539
We need you, Sam-dong,

489
00:36:50,141 --> 00:36:51,509
so let's go.

490
00:36:58,482 --> 00:37:00,518
Are you asking me to come with you again?

491
00:37:05,423 --> 00:37:07,191
Do you know what I do here?

492
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,329
I regret

493
00:37:11,796 --> 00:37:13,264
coming to Seoul with you

494
00:37:14,899 --> 00:37:16,734
a thousand times over every day.

495
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:20,238
What?

496
00:37:22,940 --> 00:37:24,008
I regret it

497
00:37:25,509 --> 00:37:26,711
over and over.

498
00:37:31,215 --> 00:37:33,284
Why did I take your hand

499
00:37:33,551 --> 00:37:35,086
when I got off the stage?

500
00:37:36,554 --> 00:37:39,991
Why did I fall for your blatant lies?

501
00:37:41,025 --> 00:37:42,793
Why did I hear you sing?

502
00:37:44,662 --> 00:37:46,430
Why did I come with you

503
00:37:49,567 --> 00:37:51,369
and get obsessed with music?

504
00:37:57,908 --> 00:37:59,210
So...

505
00:38:02,313 --> 00:38:03,381
get lost.

506
00:38:06,851 --> 00:38:07,852
Please.

507
00:38:42,086 --> 00:38:43,721
RESUME

508
00:38:54,932 --> 00:38:56,267
Oh, hi, Hye-mi.

509
00:38:56,534 --> 00:38:58,235
How can you do this to do us?

510
00:38:59,503 --> 00:39:01,806
How can you just leave like that
without even telling us?

511
00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:08,412
-You see, Hye-mi...
-You shouldn't have said it, then.

512
00:39:09,313 --> 00:39:11,415
You told us to have faith
in our abilities and soar.

513
00:39:13,284 --> 00:39:14,952
You told us you would try your best

514
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:16,921
to make sure our journeys are happy.

515
00:39:18,222 --> 00:39:20,458
Is this the best you can do?

516
00:39:21,092 --> 00:39:22,760
Leaving us and looking for another job?

517
00:39:23,928 --> 00:39:26,697
-That's...
-Do you know how hard I'm working

518
00:39:27,031 --> 00:39:28,466
because of you?

519
00:39:30,101 --> 00:39:31,502
If you knew,

520
00:39:32,470 --> 00:39:34,939
you wouldn't have been able
to leave us so easily.

521
00:39:47,451 --> 00:39:49,286
How could I ever leave you guys?

522
00:39:52,790 --> 00:39:56,527
Today, we're going to start by
getting rid of the bias

523
00:39:56,594 --> 00:39:59,497
that songwriting is hard.

524
00:39:59,764 --> 00:40:03,534
Songwriting is not hard at all.
It's something anybody can do.

525
00:40:03,601 --> 00:40:06,670
What's hard is writing songs

526
00:40:06,804 --> 00:40:07,972
that many people like.

527
00:40:08,072 --> 00:40:11,175
All right. Listen to these chords.

528
00:40:14,311 --> 00:40:16,514
Who knows what they are?

529
00:40:16,981 --> 00:40:18,482
Yes, Jason?

530
00:40:18,849 --> 00:40:21,419
A minor, D minor, and E7?

531
00:40:21,485 --> 00:40:23,687
Bingo. You're correct.

532
00:40:23,888 --> 00:40:26,524
Although these three chords
are very simple,

533
00:40:26,590 --> 00:40:30,094
with them, you can make
so many different songs.

534
00:40:30,161 --> 00:40:31,362
For example...

535
00:40:32,229 --> 00:40:35,399
Because I can't stop
Thinking about you, girl

536
00:40:35,733 --> 00:40:38,502
I am going to make you mine

537
00:40:38,969 --> 00:40:41,105
You can make a song like this.

538
00:40:41,172 --> 00:40:45,142
We loved yesterday
We parted today

539
00:40:48,979 --> 00:40:51,982
These are the notes from the songwriting
class. Read them over and study.

540
00:41:01,859 --> 00:41:03,127
Coming up with a motif,

541
00:41:03,194 --> 00:41:05,463
the seedling of a song,
is the most important

542
00:41:05,529 --> 00:41:06,697
when it comes to songwriting.

543
00:41:06,764 --> 00:41:10,034
You have to practice creating
a base with the same chords

544
00:41:10,100 --> 00:41:11,635
and switching the melody line around.

545
00:41:17,508 --> 00:41:19,310
I'm not giving up

546
00:41:19,710 --> 00:41:21,245
on you or Mr. Kang.

547
00:41:21,312 --> 00:41:24,815
The most common song progression

548
00:41:24,915 --> 00:41:26,550
is as follows.

549
00:41:26,717 --> 00:41:29,453
A, A', bridge, and chorus.

550
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,323
Many of the songs we hear
follow this progression.

551
00:41:32,490 --> 00:41:35,025
However, the trend these days
is to break this unspoken rule.

552
00:41:35,092 --> 00:41:37,428
Many songs start with the chorus.

553
00:41:37,595 --> 00:41:40,865
Why? A lot of online music sites

554
00:41:40,931 --> 00:41:42,766
offer one-minute samples, right?

555
00:41:42,833 --> 00:41:45,436
You listen for one minute and decide
whether or not you like the song.

556
00:41:45,603 --> 00:41:47,104
That is, forget the appetizers.

557
00:41:47,171 --> 00:41:49,106
Go straight to the steak
and see how delicious it is.

558
00:41:49,173 --> 00:41:50,274
For instance...

559
00:41:51,141 --> 00:41:55,012
You're lovely from your head to your toes

560
00:41:55,746 --> 00:41:59,817
I'm proud that you're my girl

561
00:41:59,884 --> 00:42:02,853
Stability and change is crucial
when writing a song.

562
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,856
A song that only has stability
is repetitive, and thus, boring.

563
00:42:05,923 --> 00:42:08,626
But if a song has too many changes,
it loses its coherence.

564
00:42:09,660 --> 00:42:12,062
Got it? I'll be back tomorrow.

565
00:42:16,534 --> 00:42:19,236
That jerk is quite stubborn.

566
00:42:19,870 --> 00:42:21,939
Doesn't she get tired
of coming here every day?

567
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,141
Hey, Sam-dong.

568
00:42:24,375 --> 00:42:25,976
Aren't you going back to school?

569
00:42:29,713 --> 00:42:32,316
I'm not telling you to leave.

570
00:42:32,983 --> 00:42:34,985
It's just that your talent
is being wasted here.

571
00:42:35,886 --> 00:42:37,788
I hear you're quite a songwriter.

572
00:42:40,391 --> 00:42:42,026
I don't need stuff like that.

573
00:42:45,829 --> 00:42:48,465
Now all that's left
is the final evaluation, right?

574
00:42:49,633 --> 00:42:53,771
The theme of your songwriting
assignment is "dreaming."

575
00:42:53,938 --> 00:42:57,074
The lyrics are on the handout
I passed out.

576
00:42:57,141 --> 00:42:58,642
You will write a song

577
00:42:58,709 --> 00:43:01,278
that goes with the lyrics I gave you.

578
00:43:01,445 --> 00:43:04,615
Submit it by next class. This final
assignment will determine your grade.

579
00:43:04,782 --> 00:43:05,883
Got it?

580
00:43:06,216 --> 00:43:09,587
You've learned enough theory.

581
00:43:09,653 --> 00:43:12,289
What you're now going to do
with the lyrics

582
00:43:12,356 --> 00:43:15,893
is create a piece of work, not a product.

583
00:43:17,361 --> 00:43:19,964
"A piece of work, not a product"?

584
00:43:20,030 --> 00:43:22,132
The process by which
you create a piece of work

585
00:43:22,199 --> 00:43:25,102
is not something one can teach you
or help you with.

586
00:43:25,169 --> 00:43:27,171
Making music that moves people

587
00:43:27,237 --> 00:43:29,406
is not something theories
can teach you how to do.

588
00:43:30,407 --> 00:43:32,443
When your sensibility,

589
00:43:32,509 --> 00:43:34,912
which come from your experiences,

590
00:43:34,979 --> 00:43:37,414
melt into the music,

591
00:43:37,481 --> 00:43:39,083
you end up with a great piece of work.

592
00:43:39,149 --> 00:43:41,251
Melt our sensibility?

593
00:43:41,318 --> 00:43:44,355
One's sensibility is the collective body

594
00:43:44,688 --> 00:43:47,391
of emotions and experiences,

595
00:43:47,558 --> 00:43:50,427
ranging from extreme happiness
and sadness to utter despair

596
00:43:50,494 --> 00:43:52,229
and helplessness.

597
00:43:52,563 --> 00:43:55,532
When all of these elements come together,

598
00:43:55,599 --> 00:43:59,003
you get a song that pulls
at people's heartstrings.

599
00:43:59,436 --> 00:44:00,537
Do you understand?

600
00:44:03,474 --> 00:44:05,476
What do you think it means

601
00:44:05,876 --> 00:44:07,244
to melt sensibilities into our music?

602
00:44:08,012 --> 00:44:09,380
Beats me.

603
00:44:12,349 --> 00:44:15,252
I miss Mr. Kang and Mr. Yang.

604
00:44:15,919 --> 00:44:19,223
They would have given us
some kind of direction.

605
00:44:23,861 --> 00:44:24,962
Ms. Si.

606
00:44:26,597 --> 00:44:28,399
Melting your sensibilities into music

607
00:44:28,565 --> 00:44:30,534
is not something one can teach you.

608
00:44:31,301 --> 00:44:33,971
It's something that comes
from lots of enriching experiences.

609
00:44:34,038 --> 00:44:35,406
But since you're young,

610
00:44:35,472 --> 00:44:37,941
you probably don't have
many direct experiences to draw from.

611
00:44:38,142 --> 00:44:41,378
So how about indirect experiences?

612
00:44:41,545 --> 00:44:43,781
Like reading books or watching movies.

613
00:44:44,214 --> 00:44:48,152
Or talking to someone older than you.

614
00:44:48,786 --> 00:44:51,822
This is what Mr. Kang would have told you.

615
00:44:55,926 --> 00:44:56,894
What?

616
00:44:57,461 --> 00:45:00,297
You don't suppose Ms.
Si is on our side, do you?

617
00:45:00,464 --> 00:45:01,865
No way.

618
00:45:04,168 --> 00:45:06,136
This one time, I'm on your side.

619
00:45:06,904 --> 00:45:10,107
-Get A's, okay?
-Yes, ma'am.

620
00:45:15,245 --> 00:45:18,115
So you want me to tell you a story

621
00:45:18,182 --> 00:45:20,317
that will add depth
to your sensibilities, right?

622
00:45:20,918 --> 00:45:21,985
Yes.

623
00:45:22,052 --> 00:45:23,287
Ms. Si said it would help

624
00:45:23,353 --> 00:45:26,190
to hear about the experiences
of older people.

625
00:45:29,026 --> 00:45:31,695
A story to add depth
to your sensibility, eh?

626
00:45:32,596 --> 00:45:34,064
What would be a good one?

627
00:45:36,734 --> 00:45:37,634
Okay.

628
00:45:38,602 --> 00:45:40,137
Should I tell you about Su-in?

629
00:45:40,571 --> 00:45:42,039
My girlfriend?

630
00:45:42,339 --> 00:45:43,440
Yes.

631
00:45:45,909 --> 00:45:47,010
All right.

632
00:45:47,911 --> 00:45:49,913
I first met Su-in

633
00:45:50,714 --> 00:45:51,915
on an airplane.

634
00:45:52,816 --> 00:45:56,320
We met way up high in the bluest of skies.

635
00:45:58,288 --> 00:45:59,990
-Isn't it romantic?
-Yes.

636
00:46:00,224 --> 00:46:03,594
She was driving me crazy.

637
00:46:04,094 --> 00:46:05,562
We would talk, right?

638
00:46:05,629 --> 00:46:07,731
And then when I blinked,

639
00:46:07,898 --> 00:46:10,667
I would miss her during that split second.

640
00:46:11,735 --> 00:46:15,139
I decided to sell my instruments

641
00:46:15,606 --> 00:46:17,241
to get her a ring.

642
00:46:17,908 --> 00:46:22,412
My instruments are my life, you know?

643
00:46:22,579 --> 00:46:25,048
As I was haggling with the store owner,

644
00:46:25,415 --> 00:46:26,884
she kept calling me.

645
00:46:26,950 --> 00:46:28,786
I would hang up, and she would call again.

646
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,322
I'm only human,

647
00:46:32,589 --> 00:46:35,259
and I was selling away my life.

648
00:46:36,026 --> 00:46:39,196
I later went down on my knees and begged.

649
00:46:39,263 --> 00:46:41,899
"I'm sorry, Su-in.

650
00:46:42,366 --> 00:46:44,668
I really am."

651
00:46:44,968 --> 00:46:47,504
But she wouldn't answer my calls,
even if I kept calling.

652
00:46:48,705 --> 00:46:50,507
She still doesn't take my calls.

653
00:46:51,575 --> 00:46:54,311
I called her not too long ago,
but to no avail.

654
00:46:54,778 --> 00:46:57,381
She just won't answer my calls.

655
00:47:12,796 --> 00:47:15,065
What's this?

656
00:47:15,599 --> 00:47:16,900
FOR SONGWRITING STUDIES

657
00:47:16,967 --> 00:47:19,369
What? Just one?

658
00:47:27,411 --> 00:47:28,612
Jason?

659
00:47:32,950 --> 00:47:34,384
Don't get any strange ideas.

660
00:47:34,551 --> 00:47:35,953
We're not here to have fun.

661
00:47:39,156 --> 00:47:42,693
We're here for an indirect
experience. Got it?

662
00:47:44,027 --> 00:47:45,162
-Yes.
-Yes.

663
00:47:47,531 --> 00:47:48,565
You want some?

664
00:47:49,266 --> 00:47:50,701
This is just an indirect experience.

665
00:47:50,968 --> 00:47:52,002
-Okay.
-Okay.

666
00:48:09,586 --> 00:48:11,922
One step, two steps

667
00:48:12,522 --> 00:48:14,892
I take trembling steps

668
00:48:14,958 --> 00:48:17,861
My heart is filled with excitement

669
00:48:20,163 --> 00:48:24,468
My heart has grown much more again today

670
00:48:24,635 --> 00:48:28,739
I'm confessing my feelings now
Your dream

671
00:48:51,428 --> 00:48:52,429
Be careful.

672
00:48:52,729 --> 00:48:54,031
I can fix it.

673
00:48:54,097 --> 00:48:55,198
Let go!

674
00:49:03,106 --> 00:49:04,107
Are you okay?

675
00:49:04,641 --> 00:49:05,976
And you? Are you okay?

676
00:49:06,977 --> 00:49:08,145
Thank god.

677
00:49:10,781 --> 00:49:12,049
Really.

678
00:49:19,356 --> 00:49:22,059
Three, four. One, two, three...

679
00:49:22,726 --> 00:49:23,760
Hey!

680
00:50:06,903 --> 00:50:08,105
I don't need

681
00:50:08,638 --> 00:50:11,475
hard workers.

682
00:50:11,675 --> 00:50:13,043
I need superstars.

683
00:51:06,496 --> 00:51:07,864
Where's Sam-dong?

684
00:51:08,065 --> 00:51:10,467
He's gone. He's staying somewhere else.

685
00:51:10,534 --> 00:51:11,501
What?

686
00:51:12,736 --> 00:51:13,870
Where?

687
00:51:13,937 --> 00:51:17,407
I don't know.
He took off without saying a word.

688
00:51:18,375 --> 00:51:20,110
Oh, no.

689
00:51:21,178 --> 00:51:22,913
I have to get this to him.

690
00:51:34,157 --> 00:51:35,659
Hye-mi is gone.

691
00:51:36,860 --> 00:51:37,961
Thanks.

692
00:51:38,428 --> 00:51:40,831
But I think she'll be looking for you
all night long.

693
00:51:41,398 --> 00:51:42,666
Is that okay with you?

694
00:52:15,332 --> 00:52:18,535
GO HYE-MI

695
00:52:20,770 --> 00:52:21,771
Hello?

696
00:52:22,639 --> 00:52:24,040
Hi, Hye-mi.

697
00:52:24,341 --> 00:52:27,077
You haven't found him yet?

698
00:52:27,777 --> 00:52:29,980
He's not here.

699
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,583
You should just go home. It's late, and...

700
00:52:33,984 --> 00:52:35,886
Hello?

701
00:52:36,786 --> 00:52:39,422
Gosh. She's really persistent.

702
00:52:41,625 --> 00:52:44,861
I don't think she'll go home
until she finds you.

703
00:52:45,195 --> 00:52:47,230
Are you just going to let her
wander around?

704
00:53:14,224 --> 00:53:15,926
Hey, miss.

705
00:53:16,126 --> 00:53:18,562
How about having a drink with us

706
00:53:18,628 --> 00:53:21,131
to warm up on this cold winter night?

707
00:53:21,698 --> 00:53:23,233
I'm a high school student.

708
00:53:23,700 --> 00:53:26,803
-Sure. You do look young.
-Then we can just have coffee.

709
00:53:26,870 --> 00:53:28,705
Come on. Let's escort the young lady.

710
00:53:28,805 --> 00:53:31,007
-What are you doing?
-Don't worry. We're not bad men.

711
00:53:31,074 --> 00:53:33,476
-Let go of me!
-There, there.

712
00:53:48,992 --> 00:53:51,061
Do you know how long
I've been looking for you?

713
00:53:52,596 --> 00:53:54,798
If you were leaving that bar,
you should have told me.

714
00:53:55,732 --> 00:53:57,367
I told you

715
00:53:58,702 --> 00:54:01,504
-to get lost.
-And I told you

716
00:54:02,339 --> 00:54:04,040
I won't give up on you.

717
00:54:05,475 --> 00:54:07,043
When I hit rock bottom,

718
00:54:07,110 --> 00:54:09,079
it was you and Mr. Kang who helped me.

719
00:54:11,014 --> 00:54:12,482
It's my turn to help.

720
00:54:19,289 --> 00:54:21,658
I don't know why you're being like this,

721
00:54:23,426 --> 00:54:25,362
but I'm going to help you snap out of it.

722
00:54:27,964 --> 00:54:29,132
Here.

723
00:54:30,934 --> 00:54:34,371
The lyrics for the final assignment.

724
00:54:45,815 --> 00:54:46,983
And this.

725
00:54:52,822 --> 00:54:54,591
I don't believe

726
00:54:55,258 --> 00:54:56,559
that this brings people strength

727
00:54:57,227 --> 00:54:59,195
or simply brings

728
00:55:00,263 --> 00:55:01,298
good luck.

729
00:55:02,966 --> 00:55:03,933
But...

730
00:55:05,268 --> 00:55:06,936
I hope it does for you.

731
00:55:23,820 --> 00:55:26,056
I told you to get lost,
but you were the one

732
00:55:27,557 --> 00:55:28,858
who kept coming back.

733
00:55:41,738 --> 00:55:43,773
This is a day you will come to regret

734
00:55:45,308 --> 00:55:47,377
someday in the future.

735
00:57:25,675 --> 00:57:28,378
I'm excited to hear the results.

736
00:57:29,913 --> 00:57:30,914
Me, too.

737
00:57:41,524 --> 00:57:44,027
You all submitted
your pieces yesterday, right?

738
00:57:45,094 --> 00:57:46,262
I'm sorry.

739
00:57:52,435 --> 00:57:53,503
I'm late.

740
00:58:06,483 --> 00:58:08,885
Let's all get A's

741
00:58:09,152 --> 00:58:11,754
so that we can bring Mr. Kang back.

742
00:58:12,789 --> 00:58:15,291
-What are you doing here?
-Mr. Si.

743
00:58:16,726 --> 00:58:17,994
What do you think?

744
00:58:20,697 --> 00:58:23,500
Do you think all three
college track kids will get A's?

745
00:58:25,635 --> 00:58:26,736
No way. Of course not.

746
00:58:27,170 --> 00:58:28,771
I think the results
are about to be announced.

747
00:58:32,709 --> 00:58:36,246
I will first call the three
students who got A's.

748
00:58:36,613 --> 00:58:37,547
You must all want to know

749
00:58:37,614 --> 00:58:40,183
since this grade will determine
if you will be in the next showcase.

750
00:58:40,350 --> 00:58:44,087
The first student who received an A...

751
00:58:46,689 --> 00:58:48,191
is Kim Phil-sook.

752
00:58:48,458 --> 00:58:49,659
Yes!

753
00:58:50,226 --> 00:58:51,194
Yes!

754
00:58:55,765 --> 00:58:58,401
Phil-sook's music

755
00:58:58,468 --> 00:59:00,303
is very lovely.

756
00:59:00,370 --> 00:59:04,240
The song seems to suggest

757
00:59:04,307 --> 00:59:05,909
the emotions of someone in love.

758
00:59:05,975 --> 00:59:07,310
Good job.

759
00:59:07,477 --> 00:59:09,546
The second student to receive an A...

760
00:59:13,249 --> 00:59:14,551
is Go Hye-mi.

761
00:59:25,728 --> 00:59:27,964
Hye-mi's music

762
00:59:28,131 --> 00:59:31,067
has a very rich structure.

763
00:59:31,467 --> 00:59:33,770
I kept thinking

764
00:59:33,937 --> 00:59:37,473
about what this piece
would sound like on stage.

765
00:59:37,907 --> 00:59:41,444
What if they all get A's?

766
00:59:42,145 --> 00:59:44,414
I know. How terrible.

767
00:59:44,581 --> 00:59:46,683
The final A goes to...

768
00:59:53,790 --> 00:59:55,058
Yun Baek-hee.

769
00:59:58,194 --> 01:00:01,264
That puts an end to the Mr. Kang issue.

770
01:00:02,565 --> 01:00:06,469
Ms. Yun's song was very sophisticated
and streamlined.

771
01:00:06,836 --> 01:00:09,806
It sounded like something written
by a professional.

772
01:00:09,973 --> 01:00:12,976
It was flawless.

773
01:00:13,343 --> 01:00:16,412
I would also like to mention another song,
which didn't get an A,

774
01:00:16,479 --> 01:00:18,081
but certainly stood out.

775
01:00:19,949 --> 01:00:21,084
Song Sam-dong.

776
01:00:21,551 --> 01:00:23,853
At first, I was going

777
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,089
to give you an F.

778
01:00:27,724 --> 01:00:31,260
But the more I looked at your piece,

779
01:00:31,794 --> 01:00:34,263
the more I was drawn into it.

780
01:00:35,598 --> 01:00:38,901
It has something the other songs lacked.

781
01:00:38,968 --> 01:00:41,604
An authentic sensibility.

782
01:00:42,205 --> 01:00:45,408
There was a sadness to it
that most people your age

783
01:00:45,708 --> 01:00:47,343
cannot express.

784
01:00:48,177 --> 01:00:50,246
While the piece did not get an A,

785
01:00:50,647 --> 01:00:53,116
I would like to recommend
that it be performed

786
01:00:53,182 --> 01:00:55,952
at the showcase along
with the three songs I mentioned.

787
01:01:04,193 --> 01:01:07,463
The allure of trot music

788
01:01:07,530 --> 01:01:11,200
is in the push and pull of your breathing.

789
01:01:11,267 --> 01:01:12,969
Don't let it all out.

790
01:01:13,036 --> 01:01:16,873
You have to tease the listener.

791
01:01:16,939 --> 01:01:19,308
You always have to leave
the listener begging for more.

792
01:01:20,143 --> 01:01:25,081
It seems like you will burst
The moment I touch you

793
01:01:25,148 --> 01:01:27,116
Sing after me.

794
01:01:27,650 --> 01:01:33,790
It seems like you will burst
The moment I touch you

795
01:01:34,057 --> 01:01:36,826
You gave away too much.

796
01:01:36,893 --> 01:01:41,297
Don't give it all away. Tease.

797
01:01:41,364 --> 01:01:42,932
One more time.

798
01:01:43,132 --> 01:01:46,002
You lovely ladies must memorize
the lyrics by tomorrow, okay?

799
01:01:46,069 --> 01:01:47,770
-Okay.
-Thank you.

800
01:01:47,837 --> 01:01:49,939
Okay. Keep teasing away.

801
01:01:51,841 --> 01:01:52,909
Mr. Kang.

802
01:01:53,910 --> 01:01:54,911
Jinguk.

803
01:01:56,379 --> 01:01:58,181
What are you doing here?

804
01:01:58,247 --> 01:02:00,049
Buy me something to eat, Mr. Kang.

805
01:02:00,116 --> 01:02:01,417
Okay.

806
01:02:01,984 --> 01:02:04,353
I suppose I should change though, right?

807
01:02:16,532 --> 01:02:19,335
What is lurking in that belly of yours?

808
01:02:19,769 --> 01:02:21,437
Are you sure you don't have worms?

809
01:02:22,839 --> 01:02:23,973
I'm sure.

810
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,843
-One more, please.
-All right.

811
01:02:30,847 --> 01:02:31,848
You look good.

812
01:02:31,914 --> 01:02:34,183
So have you reconciled with your dad?

813
01:02:35,284 --> 01:02:36,786
More or less.

814
01:02:42,759 --> 01:02:44,861
But I'm not here today to talk about me.

815
01:02:46,496 --> 01:02:49,198
How long do you plan to do this?

816
01:02:49,265 --> 01:02:51,000
You abandoned us.

817
01:02:52,435 --> 01:02:54,637
What's up with you and Hye-mi?

818
01:02:54,837 --> 01:02:56,272
You two are saying the same things.

819
01:02:56,339 --> 01:02:58,941
-Don't change the subject. Answer me.
-I didn't abandon you.

820
01:02:59,142 --> 01:03:00,943
How can I? I'm not crazy.

821
01:03:01,010 --> 01:03:03,346
And even if I want to leave you, I can't.

822
01:03:03,412 --> 01:03:05,915
I stood in front of a huge crowd and vowed

823
01:03:05,982 --> 01:03:09,519
that I would stay by your side to make
sure the journey toward your dreams

824
01:03:09,585 --> 01:03:11,387
is a happy one.

825
01:03:11,454 --> 01:03:13,356
So what are you doing here?

826
01:03:15,391 --> 01:03:17,426
Trying to find a way
to return to you guys.

827
01:03:17,493 --> 01:03:18,661
Return?

828
01:03:20,062 --> 01:03:21,130
How?

829
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,503
These are the job applications
for Mr. Kang's place.

830
01:03:29,372 --> 01:03:32,675
We narrowed it down to three candidates.

831
01:03:32,742 --> 01:03:33,876
You did?

832
01:03:34,310 --> 01:03:36,813
I trust that you were fair and objective.

833
01:03:37,446 --> 01:03:39,015
I want this process

834
01:03:39,081 --> 01:03:41,651
to be clean and transparent.

835
01:03:41,717 --> 01:03:44,120
The entire faculty unanimously approved
these three candidates.

836
01:03:44,187 --> 01:03:46,556
I'm so excited.

837
01:04:00,837 --> 01:04:03,039
RESUME
KANG OH-HYEOK

838
01:04:07,877 --> 01:04:08,711
What's this?

839
01:04:08,778 --> 01:04:11,547
Mr. Kang applied for the position, too.

840
01:04:11,614 --> 01:04:14,450
It doesn't go against any of our
regulations, and his cover letter, resume,

841
01:04:14,517 --> 01:04:18,054
and lesson plans are perfect.

842
01:04:18,454 --> 01:04:21,357
As per your order, Mr. Kang was chosen

843
01:04:21,424 --> 01:04:23,359
based on strict and objective
evaluation standards.

844
01:04:29,632 --> 01:04:30,700
Hello.

845
01:04:33,202 --> 01:04:34,370
Mr. Kang?

846
01:04:34,537 --> 01:04:37,940
I heard you quit. What are you doing here?

847
01:04:38,708 --> 01:04:41,878
I've come back for a job interview.

848
01:04:41,944 --> 01:04:43,212
Job interview...

849
01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:46,315
What? A job interview?

850
01:04:47,250 --> 01:04:50,052
Mr. Kang! What do you mean
by a job interview?

851
01:04:54,123 --> 01:04:55,391
Yes, Mr. Yun.

852
01:04:55,691 --> 01:04:57,493
I really got an A.

853
01:04:57,894 --> 01:05:00,263
He said it sounded like something
a pro had written.

854
01:05:01,364 --> 01:05:04,200
Don't you think I have what it takes
to become a superstar?

855
01:05:07,036 --> 01:05:09,372
Okay. See you later.

856
01:05:11,474 --> 01:05:12,575
Here you are.

857
01:05:15,444 --> 01:05:17,613
Hi, Ms. Si.

858
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:20,182
I have one question for you.

859
01:05:22,485 --> 01:05:23,719
Did you really

860
01:05:24,287 --> 01:05:25,855
write that song?

861
01:05:26,489 --> 01:05:27,423
Pardon?

862
01:05:28,491 --> 01:05:31,060
Why, of course.

863
01:05:37,033 --> 01:05:40,803
I taught you for a year.

864
01:05:41,938 --> 01:05:46,142
I know better than anyone else who you are
and how much talent you have.

865
01:05:47,343 --> 01:05:49,645
No one else may know, but I know.

866
01:05:51,747 --> 01:05:53,115
You didn't write that song.

867
01:05:57,353 --> 01:05:58,454
So?

868
01:05:59,555 --> 01:06:00,890
Does that matter?

869
01:06:01,624 --> 01:06:04,527
What? "Does that matter?"

870
01:06:05,561 --> 01:06:07,863
Don't you know that's cheating?

871
01:06:08,164 --> 01:06:09,365
You taught me

872
01:06:10,967 --> 01:06:12,435
it's okay to cheat.

873
01:06:13,636 --> 01:06:16,539
When A-jeong lied
because she wanted the solo,

874
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:20,676
don't you remember what you told me?

875
01:06:21,210 --> 01:06:22,678
A little lying won't hurt, though.

876
01:06:22,745 --> 01:06:25,748
It means she really wants the solo,
even if she has to lie her way to it.

877
01:06:26,148 --> 01:06:28,918
I have respect for determination.

878
01:06:29,852 --> 01:06:33,322
And you knew, didn't you,
that I had put the thumbtack

879
01:06:34,523 --> 01:06:35,825
in A-jeong's shoe?

880
01:06:36,592 --> 01:06:38,461
-But that--
-That's how it all started.

881
01:06:39,095 --> 01:06:41,797
That's when I started cheating.

882
01:06:42,498 --> 01:06:44,900
One wrong step led to the second
and the third,

883
01:06:45,601 --> 01:06:47,770
and now it doesn't bother me at all.

884
01:06:48,037 --> 01:06:50,139
And that's how I got to make
my professional debut.

885
01:06:50,806 --> 01:06:52,675
It was you who told me

886
01:06:53,609 --> 01:06:54,777
it was okay.

887
01:06:56,078 --> 01:06:57,213
Yun Baek-hee.

888
01:06:57,680 --> 01:06:58,814
But...

889
01:06:59,682 --> 01:07:01,684
Hye-mi is about to steal my place again.

890
01:07:02,685 --> 01:07:03,886
Mr. Yun...

891
01:07:04,587 --> 01:07:06,856
is thinking of replacing me with her.

892
01:07:07,456 --> 01:07:09,225
I went through so much
to get to where I am now.

893
01:07:12,328 --> 01:07:15,331
I will never give it up.

894
01:07:15,765 --> 01:07:18,868
I'll do whatever it takes to keep her
from taking what's mine.
