* Episode 11 *

You and I... what do we have to talk about sitting here like this?

You... isn't it your dream to be a singer?

If that's so?

You came here to ask me this?

You said to wait till dogs and cows become singers.

I'm thinking of taking part in that ridiculous dream of yours.

Do you want to try?

I'm saying I'm willing to try to turn you into a singer.

So, I'm asking you right now if you'd like to work with me.

Do you not understand what I'm saying?

I'm offering you a chance at signing a contract.

Do you understand?

Why are you doing this?

Didn't you scoff and mock that someone like me would never be able to become a singer?

Why did you suddenly appear with the offer to make me a singer?

What reasons could you possibly have?

Manager Choi... that's right,

the one who knows your sister.

She's bothering me by insisting that she needs to turn you into a singer.

She's willing to stake her life to turn you into a singer.

Unfortunately, I need her help.

So what you mean is...

you still think it's not possible for me to succeed as a singer.

Since the person who knows my sister insists on turning me into a singer,

you'll give it a shot as part of doing business?

Isn't that reason enough?

Don't pity me.

Even without your pity, I will become a singer,

and stand in front of you righteously and show you.

What do you think you're doing?

What if that's not all?

I was there the very first time you took to the stage.

You could not even lip-sync properly,

standing there not knowing what to do.

You really looked pitiful.

However, all of a sudden, you found your voice,

and...

started singing.

It wasn't perfect singing by any measure,

but I couldn't take my eyes off you.

I did not know what that meant -

why I couldn't take my eyes off you.

Manager Choi explained it to me.

That's the strength that you possess.

What do you mean by that?

She said there's something in you that just makes people want to be on your side.

They hope that you will succeed.

She even said that for a singer, it's an important gift to have.

Because they want to sing along with you.

That gift you have is what I want to embrace.

Isn't this enough?

Hey!

There was a really charming young man looking for you a little while ago.

So, I told him you might be at the car wash. Did you meet him?

Omo! What's happening here?

It's an earth-shattering event that a pretty young lady is pursuing our loser Hyung here.

Now there's a charming young man here looking for our Jin Jin Noona?

What can this be?

What's this?

What kind of a jerk came looking for you?

Are you dating now?

Grandmother, please give this to my sister when she comes.

Hey! Na Jin Jin! Jin Jin!

Grandmother! How charming of a young man was he?

Come to think of it, I've seen him a few times.

Oh my! Then he must be a regular customer of our club.

He must have fallen for her after seeing her sing.

Has fallen... Definitely fallen...

Who is it? What kind of a jerk is he?

What sort of a person would follow you around?

What good would it do you knowing?

Because you are singing on stage,

some jerk thinks you are easy, and he's hanging around?

That must be it.

No one who is sane will see you as a real woman and pursue you.

He must be a married man. Isn't he?

Are you really my friend?

It's exactly because we're friends that I'm concerned and asking about it.

He wants to turn me into a singer. Are you satisfied?

What? Then it definitely must be that.

What do you mean "definitely must be that"?

He's trying to seduce you, seeing if he can take advantage of you.

It's not like your singing's that good.

You're not exactly a raving beauty, either.

Don't you find it the least bit strange that he'd like to make you a singer?

He must be trying to seduce you,

so get a hold of yourself, girl!

Don't ruin your life by falling for it.

Oh... seriously!

It's almost time to open.

What are you doing here, Dong Ah?

- What? - Hurry and get to work.

Yes.

You should keep what I said in your mind, girl. All right?

What happened?

You blew off the performance without even a phone call?

I'm sorry.

If this is the way you are going to be, you should just quit.

From now on, I won't blow off a performance without calling first.

- It must be... - Must be, what?

Is he asking you to quit?

That's not it.

Then why did you blow off the performance?

Didn't I just say it won't happen again?

Then do you have a problem?

That's right, there is.

What's the problem?

I don't think you need to know.

I guess that's how it is.

I guess I am a person who has no right to care about your problems.

It's not like that. It's just that...

I don't really feel like talking about it.

Go out, then.

Why are you sitting there spaced out?

What's the matter?

- Ahjumma, your son... - What about my son?

He wants to turn me into a singer.

And?

- He's offering me a contract. - There's no reason to reject.

He's someone who treated me like a roach, then all of a sudden...

It felt strange?

Did you turn him down,

asking why he's doing this now after looking down on you?

No.

Then, you agreed?

No.

What was it then, if it wasn't a "yes" or a "no"?

I didn't say anything at all. I wasn't sure what to do.

Jin Jin...

Yes?

There's a time in life where you need to grab even a rotted rope and see where it leads to.

Anyway, he's my son with my blood flowing through him.

Just like I recognized your talent,

it could be he's recognized your talent.

She's gone out again?

I think she slipped out while I was in the laundry room.

Where on earth does that child go nowadays?

[Mom]

- You said you've something to say. - Yes? Yes.

What would you have to say to Granny?

Dong Ah, why are you talking like this?

You should call her "Grandmother"*, not "Granny"*.

(* "Grandmother" is more formal than "Granny")

Oh, the fellow's always been this way. Don't mind him.

What would you like to tell me?

Do you think it's possible for me to learn from you?

What is it you'd like to learn?

I was thinking about opening some sort of restaurant in the future,

but I don't know how to cook.

I'm hoping that you would teach me a thing or two.

Yoon Seo...

I'm hardly qualified to teach anyone anything.

Therefore, if you're thinking about starting a restaurant,

you should go to a proper academy and learn it properly.

I'd really like to learn it from you. Please teach me, Grandmother.

I said I'm not qualified to teach anyone,

so why are you so persistent?

Oh... then I will do the dishes and run errands for you,

and if you find me useful, you can teach me then.

Noona, are you trying to move in on my job?

Are you trying to work part-time here instead of me?

When I help out around here,

Grandmother gives me a thousand or sometimes even two thousand won.

Are you thinking about stealing that from me, Noona?

No, no... Eo Jin. I'm not taking a single cent for the work I'm doing.

Really, you can trust me, Eo Jin.

Do you really wish to learn?

Yes, Grandmother.

Let's have a chat, shall we?

Oh! They must be dating. He's holding her hand like this.

Jin Joo... that's how it is when you're dating.

What are you trying to do?

I've told you already.

I've asked how you'd feel if I started working at Grandmother's food cart.

Well that... I thought you were just kidding.

I meant exactly what I said.

Seriously, why are you doing this?

Why would you need to do something like that?

Is it something not allowed?

You're not someone that should be doing things like that.

What sort of person am I?

You're the daughter of a rich family.

- You've studied and... - There is

nothing that I know how to do.

This is why I'd like to try to master making noodles.

Don't try to use that kind of nonsense as an excuse.

Did you see right through my excuse?

I really enjoy being around you and all the people in your life.

I'd like to be a part of that as well.

Besides using this excuse, I don't know what else to do.

Could I please learn to make noodles from Grandmother?

How long do you think you'll be able to be around us?

Well, if there is something you want to try, then you should try it.

I'll leave it to you.

It's so hard just to get one look at you, Jung Yoon Seo.

I'd like to ask you one thing, Jung Yoon Seo.

Why can't it be me? Why is it all right if it's Kang Suk?

After all, it should all be the same to you, am I not right?

If you're not getting married for love,

shouldn't it be the same if it were me?

It does matter to me.

Why?

For some reason, I at least feel sympathy for him.

I have no such feeling toward you, Lee Ji Suk.

Will that answer do?

Where did you go, and why are you back this late?

I went to meet a friend.

Do you even have a friend?

I have friends, Mom.

Were you out with Lee Kang Suk?

What if I was?

Didn't I tell you not to see him again?

What's the point of meeting someone when it's not necessary?

Good night.

Don't forget...

don't think that your life belongs to you and only you.

I gave birth to you. You belong to me.

It does matter to me.

For some reason, I at least feel sympathy for him.

I have no such feeling toward you, Lee Ji Suk.

Ji Suk, why on earth did you have so much to drink again?

- Hurry, hold on to your brother. - Yes.

Please stop pretending, you jerk!

What do you think you are doing!

Father.

Father...

Have you ever put him and me on the same scale?

What are you trying to say?

You feel that I am not worthy to even be on the same scale?

Why are you like this? Why are you spouting off at your father?

Ahjumma and Ok Hee, both of you return to your rooms.

You're amazing.

At a time like this, Mother...

you're still worried about Ahjumma and Ok Hee's perceptions.

If you are worried about how the world perceives you,

why are you living like this?

Seriously, what on earth is the matter with you?

If you cannot handle alcohol, you should not drink.

You've never really once held my hand, Father.

To you Father, this brat Kang Suk is the only one who's important.

- Isn't that so? - That's enough!

If I decided to take what belongs to him...

No, that's not it...

If I said I wanted something that was never his to begin with,

what are you going to do?

What are you doing? Aren't you going to help your brother up?

What are you going to do?

You're never going to be on my side, are you Father? Are you?

Seriously, what on earth is wrong with you?

How much more are you planning to hurt your mother?

Hey, Kang Suk...

You think I'm a big joke, don't you?

It's ridiculous to you that I am fighting a fight that will not happen.

Even so, I have a desire to do so.

What can I do?

Unni! Unni!

Unni! Unni!

Unni! Look at me!

Unni!

What's wrong? Don't you have her medication? Where's her medication?

It's too dangerous for her to take it now. It can go down her airway!

She's shaking uncontrollably. What can we do?

Unni! Unni... it's all right!

I'm right here. Jin Jin's right here. There's nothing to be afraid of.

Unni!

It's going to pass... it's going to pass again.

It's not for a day or two, but all the time...

Your Unni life's is... but your life is even more... Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Unni... go to sleep now.

Sleep...

Aigoo, is she really your older sister? Seems more like your child.

Granny...

What?

I must become a singer.

I am not going to leave my sister this way.

Grandmother, seriously, what's the matter with you?

I've paid the rent, how could you still do this?

I didn't sell a thing yesterday. Just eat up!

It's your problem if you didn't sell anything!

Oh you, you, you! How can you not have any homonty?

By any chance, did you mean to say "humanity"?

If you understand, that's enough.

Grandmother, we welcome anything that you did not sell the previous day,

so you can give it to us every day.

Why don't you offer a sacrifice to the spirits that my business goes under!

Sleeping this late, you must be tired from helping the boss with the books last night.

He must be tired since whenever he sees alcohol in front of him,

he drinks till his head splits.

Oppa, when you are tired, you need to replenish with vitamins. Open wide.

Hey, that's unhygienic!

Oppa, how can there be such a thing as unhygienic between us. Open wide...

Where did Eo Jin go?

Some uncle you are! School's re-opened, he's gone to school.

Did he have breakfast?

Aigoo... you're worried about him?

He had a whole lot of kimbap. Don't worry about it!

- Hello? - Someone's calling for you,

you must be dating huh... right?

Yes... Oh? Today?

But I don't have a signature seal.

Oh, yes... I do have an identity card.

Dating and taking the census too?

Oh, it'll be fine if I just sign the contract?

Alright then, I'll be there with my identity card.

Yes.

What does that mean?

Why do you need your identity card? What contract?

What are you signing?

I'm going to be signing a contract with an entertainment agency.

Hey! They're all cheats and liars!

Why exactly does the agency want to sign a contract with you?

The company is called Double Sharp Entertainment. I've been there.

They are asking me to sign a contract.

Hey... hey! Double Sharp Entertainment has offered you a... a contract?

Really? Seriously? Are you for real?

It's the President who offered me the contract.

- What are their terms? - What?

What kind of terms are they offering? How long is the contract for?

How much do you get paid? What's the percentage on profits?

- We didn't talk about all that... - Aigoo! You! Seriously!

No, this won't do. You run along and get ready. I'll come with you!

Oh! Oh! Why are you coming along, too?

How could you sign a contract without a manager?

- You're my manager? - I am the one who found you.

- What else would I be? - You don't know much about singers.

What do you know about a singer's contract

when you've failed 15 times trying to qualify as a gag-man? Step aside.

Jin Jin! Go on. Get ready! I'll be ready right away!

- No, no. - No!

Why would the both of you get involved in this?

It's only right if I go. Go on, get ready now.

- Hey! What do you know, little punk? - Hey! What do you know, little punk?

- At least you should go back. - I should be there for you as well.

Oh, seriously! I'll be fine on my own!

It will make me a laughing stock, showing up with so many people!

Do you know why most new artistes have problems with their contracts?

It's because they don't know the law and sign a contract drawn up by the agency.

That's right!

If you don't have an experienced person like me looking over your contract,

you'll pay for it in the future.

For a person with nothing like me, what is there to lose?

The way you're thinking now is dangerous, that's why we are going with you.

New artistes are blinded by dreams of becoming successful.

- They will sign just about anything. - Hey! The bus is here!

You! Please don't come along all right? Understand?

- Please, I don't want anything to go wrong! - What can you do without me?

If you stay out of this, I can accomplish just about anything!

Driver! Let's go!

Hey! Na Jin Jin!

Ah! I needed to go along, too.

Well, the size of the company is all right.

Oh, we have met before.

- Who are these people? - Oh, I'm Gloria's manager.

I'm her vocal trainer.

Oh, they work at the nightclub with me and we rent rooms in the same house.

When I said I was going to sign a contract, they wanted to come and look around.

What's there to see? You're just signing a contract.

Oh, President. You've arrived.

What's this?

You're supposed to be signing a contract with Gloria today.

Aigoo! Now, who is this?

It's nice to see a familiar face in a place like this.

If he's the President, he must be in charge around here.

Like mother, like son. You are your mother's son.

It's very impressive you're this successful, coming from a challenged background.

When we first met, I guessed as much you weren't an ordinary guy. Just like this...

Let's just sign the contract.

Please stop looking over it.

You have to read the fine print as well when signing. Can't be sloppy.

Excuse me.

When do you think you'll be done with that?

Oh well, from a manager's standpoint,

the terms of contract for a new person will become a big issue in the industry.

If I'm not going to look over them carefully, what else is there for a manager to do?

When was it again that you became my manager like this?

The contract states that she'll be signed for 5 years.

Isn't that a little long?

I'd be happy with a 10 year contract as well.

- You should stay out of this. - This concerns me. Why should I?

It's the standard contract for most new artistes.

The percentage of profits stands at 70 to 30.

Wouldn't 60 to 40 be a fairer split?

You're the expert. You should know how much it takes to invest in a new artiste.

Of course. That percentage is fine, then.

The signing bonus is only 5 million won. It should be at least 10 million won.

It seems to me that the manager doesn't wish to sign the contract?

Enough already!

Where... where should I sign?

Hey! Wasn't that a lot better than coming here alone?

I looked through the whole thing thoroughly. There shouldn't be a problem!

What was there for you to look through? It was all on their terms!

Well, it's because we came along that you managed to get the signing bonus in cash.

If we weren't around, they'd probably give you a promissory note.

Probably a 3-month Note!

What do you intend to do with the 5 million* won? (*US$5,000)

Shouldn't we go and have some beef ribs?

On a day like this, we need to have some beer in celebration.

I have plans.

Well, can we at least have some samgyeopsal* (*pork belly)?

What's this?

The deposit on your room. It's 5 million won, isn't it?

This is 5 million won? Really?

It is! That's right!

Now, I'm formally requisitioning your room.

Oh course. I never imagined in my wildest dreams you'd give me the deposit money.

Did you really sign the contract?

She signed it and she's back now. Why don't you ever believe others?

Well, what is it about Jin Jin that they like?

Don't say that! They said I had an inner strength that attracted others to me.

That's why they've decided to make me a singer, and signed a contract with me.

Oh, don't you think I'm stronger in that department than you are?

Men fall all over themselves when I'm dancing.

Min Ah, oh Min Ah! That's nothing to be proud of.

Hey! Give me one million won from there.

What nonsense are you spouting?

Since Jin Jin has given you the deposit for your room,

now you are living for free in my room.

So... pass me one million won as a deposit. Come on, cough it up!

Am I sharing a room with you because I wanted to?

I was threatened, pushed around, and forced to move in there.

Give it here! Give it to me! Hurry up now!

- No, I won't! No! - Oh, you punk!

- I'm not giving, even if you kill me! - Come here, you!

Jin Jin.

Are you really becoming a singer?

Yes, I'm going to be a singer.

So... I get to buy a diamond ring?

Yes, when I become a famous singer soon,

I'll get you a really bright and sparkly diamond ring.

Jin Joo... that's great!

I like that! I would really like that!

Miss Yoon Seo.

What's this? You're here already?

As a student, one has to show some effort.

You seem really eager to learn.

Well, instead of wanting to learn how to make noodles,

she's coming here because she wants to see Dong Ah hyung.

Why are you talking nonsense, you little jerk!

Am I wrong?

Why don't you cover the whole sky with just your hand?

- What? - I'm thinking that as well...

Oh, that's gross. Stop laughing and making a fuss!

Hey, give it a good effort.

Where on earth will you meet someone like Ms. Yoon Seo again?

Try not to show your temper.

Be on your best behavior, and try to get into her heart, got it?

Thank you for your hard work throughout the month.

It has been more than 30 years

since I earned a pay check.

After only spending money given to me,

it's nice to hold money that I've earned.

Yes?

Oh, what's the matter?

Oh! You're here too, Ahjumma!

I just got paid today. is there anything you feel like eating? It's my treat.

President. Ahjumma.

Today, I signed with an entertainment agency.

- A contract? - That's great! Congratulations, Jin Jin!

Yes, it's all thanks to both of you.

I received a signing bonus of 5 million won today as well,

but I gave it to Dong Chul as deposit for his room, so I won't be able to treat today.

But once I start earning some money, I'll definitely be buying!

Ask everyone to wait a bit after finishing work today.

- Let's have a meal together. - What?

You've just signed a contract. We can't ignore that.

Go out there and tell everyone not to leave after work.

All right! Thank you!

Thank you so much President! I'll work even harder!

Just like a doll you are leaving behind

You should not leave me so easily with a smile

My heart, just like an Indian doll Woa~Woa~Woa~Woa~

must have been scorched by loneliness

Oh my baby...

- She's a tough cookie! - Yeah.

It'd have been easy to give up on life. It's amazing she's made it this far.

If it weren't for her sister,

she might have given up.

On rainy days, I have too many hurtful recollections

I walk in the rain trying to forget the past

Just like a doll you are leaving behind

You should not leave me so easily with a smile

She's really ecstatic today after the signing.

I thought a 50,000 Won* singer is all she could be. (US$50)

You never know how life can turn out...

Who would have thought there'd be a day when Jin Jin Noona would become a singer?

My heart, just like an Indian doll

Oh this little brat! Instead of sleeping at a perfectly good house,

why is he sleeping here?

You are not going to answer?

It's a call that I don't have to answer.

Are you seeing some other guy as well?

What?

What else could it be when a young lady doesn't answer her calls?

That's not it, Grandmother.

It's not the place for an old lady to get involved with young people's business,

but I've always considered Dong Ah as a real grandchild of mine.

He might not feel that way, but that's how I feel.

Yes.

Do you know what his strongest point is?

It's his ability to take punches.

He's not very good with his fists, but he survives by being able to take punches.

However, he won't be able to take a punch from you.

Oh well, you probably don't really understand what I'm trying to say here,

but just try to remember this.

[From: Mom] Your father's here. Come home quickly.

What sort of a long stroll did you take?

You're here.

Have a seat.

It looks like she hasn't gained full strength in her legs.

She's trying to regain it by going on long walks.

- Regarding Young Master Lee... - Dear, please stop talking about that person.

Dear, why don't you stay quiet for now?

He would like to wait till his current assignment is stabilized

before getting married.

The chance of the company recovering is nil, but he still wants to try.

That's the mark of a real man.

So how do you feel about working, too?

What can she do?

What does she know how to do?

There's something I'd like her to take charge of.

Are you discontented with your father?

Since you are not answering, it must be true.

A real man would not rely on alcohol to get the courage to speak up.

If you have something to say, say it with a clear mind.

I'm sorry about what happened yesterday.

I had too much to drink.

What are you unsatisfied with?

It's not like that.

Well?

I can't tell you yet.

Is it some project at work you're doing without me knowing?

It isn't about work.

Then, what could it possibly be?

I'll tell you some other time.

Ji Suk, let's have a chat.

What are you trying to accomplish?

What are you going to do when you keep losing points from your father?

Isn't it a little funny keeping score between parent and child?

Haven't you realized by now that this is your reality?

You are drinking because Kang Suk will become President Jang's son-in-law.

You should meet Culture Minster Park's daughter.

- And after that? - What do you mean "after that"?

Meet, go on that date, get married. Lead a stable life.

Marry her and sleep separately like you and Father do?

I don't want to live like you both do, that's why I've been alone all this while.

Do you intend to live alone in the future as well?

I've found a girl that I want to share a bed with.

Who on earth is this girl you're talking about?

Here you go, have a good meal!

She had to go home because something came up.

Oh...

Are you disappointed? Leaving without saying anything to you?

What's there to be disappointed about?

Try not to fall too deeply for her.

Jin Joo, take Eo Jin home.

Okay. Eo Jin is sleeping.

Eo Jin, time to go home and sleep.

Be careful and watch what's in front of you!

Okay.

I feel she isn't destined to be your other half.

What are you talking about, Grandmother?

When did I say that Yoon Seo was my other half?

I can see in your eyes that you wish it would happen.

Even though I am a loser,

I'm not that sort of mindless idiot.

Aish!

Why are you talking about such strange things, Grandmother!

Here's to the third-rate nightclub which has raised its first contracted singer.

- Here's to Gloria! - Cheers!

Why is it a third-rate nightclub?

All right, I'll rephrase it, then. Make it second-rate.

Seriously...

- Ahjumma! What's with you? - What's with me?

Why are you talking so informally with our President?

Well, we're friends... am I not allowed to speak informally to a friend?

Even so,

all the staff are present now,

so you really shouldn't be speaking so informally.

Even if our President is a kind man,

you really shouldn't be taking advantage of that.

Unni... Unni, I think you have too much to drink.

She's just had two glasses of beer. Is she already drunk?

Tae Soon unni has never been able to drink much.

Unni, Unni. That's about enough, all right?

You can't behave this way as well, President.

What... did I do?

You should not stomp on my feelings.

Well, you... What's wrong with you?

When I got scouted to a place in Gaboochon,

do you know why I turned it down?

I said I didn't want to do the traditional Korean dance,

but that wasn't it.

It was because of you, President.

What's wrong with her? Doesn't she realize she's spoiling the mood?

We're having a celebration for Gloria now. What does she think she's doing?

Jung Woo Hyun!

You can't behave this way!

Min Ah! You know how I feel.

Aigoo, you are drinking again after coming back from the group dinner?

It ended early because of Tae Soon.

If you ask what is love.

It's just a seed for tears.

That's what I'd tell you.

Oh please stop it with your singing about love!

My ears are killing me!

Just what is love that everyone wants to die because of it?

Min Ah! Do you understand how I'm feeling?

How could I possibly understand how you're feeling?

Dong Ah oppa...

What?

You understand how I'm feeling, don't you, Oppa?

How could I know what you're feeling?

I'm sorry for leaving without a word.

My father arrived and I didn't have the time to say goodbye.

[It's al...]

I must be crazy.

What am I doing here in the middle of the night?

Hello? Yoon Seo?

I'm coming out right now! Wait right there!

You're still awake?

How about you, Dong Ah?

Oh well, me...

I think it's because we stopped drinking before we got going at the group dinner.

I couldn't seem to get to sleep.

Were you standing by the window instead of sleeping all this time?

Yes, it might be a habit.

Oh, that... I came to tell you this.

What?

When Eo Jin can't fall asleep,

he'll start counting sheep.

He'll fall asleep before he's counted to a hundred.

Well, you could try that as well.

You came all the way here just to tell me that?

It was a little long to send as a text message.

I've never sent a text message before.

Thanks, I'll try that.

All right then, go on in and try it.

No one has ever treated me as nicely as you have, Dong Ah.

I'm... not a nice guy.

To me, you are.

It's a habit of yours now, exercising in the moonlight.

Then where have you been wandering instead of sleeping?

- What about you? - I couldn't sleep.

Why are there so many people unable to sleep?

Who else is unable to sleep?

I don't know.

You just came from Yoon Seo's house?

Ms. Yoon Seo also can't sleep?

Oh, that's gross!

You must really like her. I'm right, aren't I? Aren't I?

It's not like that.

If not, why did you run all the way there in the middle of the night to see her?

You know about festivals, don't you?

What?

You know...

Cherry Blossoms Festival, the Tulip Festival.

There are a lot of festivals.

Why are you talking about those things out of the blue?

About festivals, Jin Jin...

What about festivals?

It's not something you do all year.

It ends a couple of days after it starts.

What are you talking about?

That's what I am to Ms. Yoon Seo.

Say it in a way that I can understand.

Oh, that's enough.

Are you excited you are going to be a singer?

To be honest,

my heart is pounding so much that I can't sleep.

Although I've made that bold statement that I am going to be a real singer,

I wonder whether I can really become one.

But when I started to think that I might actually become one...

Are you so happy that you're going crazy?

It's all right, I guess. My heart keeps pounding.

Then go on practicing your singing with a pounding heart.

When I become a singer and release an album,

I'll sign it and give it to you first.

I am your friend from childhood.

I'm so grateful that I'm in tears.

I did not even dream,

but why is my heart pounding, and why can't I sleep, Jin Jin?

This is Gloria who will be practicing with you all starting today.

Introduce yourselves.

I'm in your hands.

Stop giving this attitude to the rookie and try to get along.

The vocal coach and choreographer will divide their time to guide you.

- Do your best! - Yes! I'll do my best!

Before the teachers arrive, do some vocal exercises.

- All right. - Goodbye!

Well, this is my first day and I don't know anything at all.

Please guide me along.

I'll take care of all of you as my seniors.

Oh dear, even ahjummas want to be singers these days.

Oh? I'm not even married.

When we first got here, we started with the cleaning.

- You can start there. - Cleaning?

Aish! Who spat out their gum in the hallway?

What are you doing?

How do you do!

I'm cleaning up, President.

- What's the matter with you? - What?

When did you start speaking formally with me?

Whatever it is, you're now officially the president of the company I work for.

What other way would I speak to you?

I signed you on as a singer, not as part of a cleaning crew.

What are you doing?

I heard that first thing when you start is to do cleaning for a couple of months.

- Who said that? - The kids I'm practicing with.

There is no reason for you to clean the hallway.

Oh, President!

I'd like to formally greet you.

Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

I won't disappoint you.

So, I guess because he's Ahjumma's son, he's not a really bad person after all.

You... do you know how to read music?

What? No, I can't.

- How about surd* sound? Surd sound. - What is a surd sound?

(*A voiceless sound)

How did you get here?

How is it someone like you who doesn't even know the basics get picked to be here?

Although I'm not quite sure why I was picked,

I'm going to try my best from here on!

This isn't something that can be accomplished solely with hard work.

You don't even know the simplest basics now.

Still, I'll try my very best! Please trust me!

This isn't the army. What are you yelling for?

Salute! Salute!

Still... isn't having a loud voice better than having a quiet one?

- Oh, what are you doing? All over my foot. - Move out of there.

Unni! Roses!

Can you handle the practice? Did they teach you a lot?

He said I didn't even know the simplest basics, and I was scolded nearly to death!

Well, you are taking that really well, laughing and giggling.

Oh, I don't see Yoon Seo around today?

Our display area is more than just a display area.

It's a place where cultural trends are displayed and set.

Our showroom displays the value of designer merchandise,

and presents the essence of our culture.

It's also a place where you can find designer brand items that suit

your personal style at a reasonable price at a single location.

Even after you get married, it will be better than just staying at home.

I'm planning to give you and Mr. Lee more responsibilities in the future.

Take your time and carefully learn the work.

Yes.

How many times have I told you that I wanted to run this place?

Dear, you just keep doing as you are doing now.

It must be nice. Your father even takes care of details like this for you.

Oh, he's here.

I asked you to come so that we can have a meal together.

Introduce yourself. This is Yoon Seo's mother.

Have a seat.

Yes.

Welcome! Please have lots of fun.

Yoon Seo...

I won't be able to make it today, Dong Ah.

I understand.

I'm hanging up.

Please buy a rose.

They're roses of love.

It's good that you haven't been really ill, Jin Joo.

I'm going to make it as a singer as quickly as I can,

and make a lot of money to buy that diamond ring you want,

take you to the hospital as well.

Till then, you have to stay well,

all right, Jin Joo?

[From: Yoon Seo] Asleep?

One sheep...

Two sheep...

Three sheep...

Four sheep...

Five sheep...

You're exercising really diligently, President.

With you giving me with this much respect,

I feel you are teasing me.

It's not like that at all, President!

Have a good day, President!

- Your nose is bleeding. - What?

It's nothing.

You...

are you even sleeping?

You're my asset.

Now, you're not yours anymore!

I'm not anyone's asset.

If you collapse, I will sue you for damages, so do as you please.

My thoughts are there is no way I can let you have Jung Yoon Seo.

Don't you want to send your daughter to a man that can love her?

How can you eye the woman your younger brother is going to marry?

That's when I realized that

there is truth in the phrase, "People of the same social class should live together."

Why aren't you answering Yoon Seo's calls?

First true sign of being in love is a lover's quarrel.

I said to just eat!

Do you think you are a robot? How much is it for all this?

From now on, please extend her practice by one hour.

- You haven't eaten? - I was touched.

Because he's your son, there are some hidden good points about him.
