Episode 17

What?

You have to start recording soon but you want to change parts?

It's what the girls want.

Can we?

Okay then.

You're the leader so I'm sure you have it all under control.

I'll tell Mr. Kang.

Thanks.

Mom, what's up?

Recently?

Yeah, we started the competition again.

No, I'm not that busy right now. Why?

Then can you come home when you have time?

Home?

It's been a while.

You haven't been calling,

and your dad misses you, even if he doesn't say it.

It's not like I haven't called because I was out messing around.

What?

I've been so busy.

Practicing day and night for the competition.

I've been having a hard time you know.

You don't know anything!

I see.

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

Mom...

I'll talk to you next time then.

Get back inside, hurry.

You can't choose because they're too many places to choose from

or because they're too far apart?

Huh?

Both.

You don't need to go all the way to Incheon for the mural village.

There's a pretty place near Daehangno as well.

Really?

What about here?

I like this place, too.

This is all there is to these two places.

If you're going to go to Daehangno, why don't you go here

since it's on the same subway line, line 4?

And there are a lot of tourists here on the weekdays

so you need preauthorization if you want to shoot.

You're the best.

You just cleared everything up for me.

Well, you were looking over it for so long.

I guess that's why some people are born to be leaders.

Oh, come on.

Really. It's just that

I've always wished our team had a leader like you.

And I still think that you make a good leader.

Well, Sori is doing just fine, too.

You really think so?

Yeah.

It was a blow at first,

but I thought about it, and it didn't really matter whether I was leader or not.

In fact, I feel so liberated right now.

It's like a burden has been lifted and I feel so much better.

That's good then.

But I think Sori is having a tough time.

It's all part of the process.

No one is good from the beginning.

She'll do fine.

Yeah.

Didn't you know? She works at a car wash these days.

Who told her to get a job?

Hello.

Jiseul?

What's going on?

Iseul told me not to tell you because you'd be worried.

Can't you just let it go for once?

How can you be working here without parental consent?

What were you thinking?

Actually, this place...

is my uncle's car wash.

I talked to him so she didn't need a consent form

Even so, how...

You don't have to worry. It's just during vacation.

We need a new uniform when we start high school,

and a school trip is coming up...

Iseul didn't want to ask you for money.

Sori, I've been thinking.

How about acting out some of the lyrics

like a drama series for a few scenes?

A drama series?

The other team is probably going to focus on dancing,

so if we want to stand out,

I think we should add some drama scenes.

Sounds good.

But is it possible? We need a script...

My cousin is in a movie club.

We can ask for her help.

And I have a few ideas for the script.

Really? What's it about?

Well...

A drama series? Sounds like a good idea.

And the script is okay, too.

But how are we going to divide up the parts?

Looks like there are two lead roles.

The others are extras then?

I guess so.

But they're still important roles so it'll be fun.

Then I want to be lead role A.

I think Jane would be better for that part.

Why?

Jane and I have the lowest points so far.

So you should give us a chance this time.

Really?

That would be great for me.

Is that okay with you too?

Yes!

But I did some voice acting in Japan.

It's the perfect role for me.

You get to sing the part you want instead.

That's different.

Just let us do this for once.

I really want to be the lead role too!

That's enough.

I want to do it.

No, she said I have to do it.

I want to say this line.

Let's begin.

Everytime I tried to start over,

obstacles stood in my way

As we look into each other's eyes

Where is the end to this glittering road

So bubbly.

Over way up high, one for all

Six, seven.

Stay a little stronger, one, two.

As we look...

Down, down, up, up.

Each other's eyes... Seven, eight.

1, 2. 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2.

1, 2, 1, 2.

Let's try that again, from the top.

Go.

Stay a little...

Kika, go down. Go.

Stay a little stronger.

Let's start from here.

Go.

Over way up high...

Kika, are you tired?

Can you be more energetic?

Again, go.

One, two and three.

Look. It's so pretty here.

- Over there. - Look, so pretty.

This place is amazing!

Wow!

It's really nice here.

Jiseul, hurry up. Hurry, hurry.

Sorry.

I'm really sorry, sir.

Why, that...

Wearing such indecent clothes, too.

What?

We apologize. We apologize.

Let's go. We apologize.

Why? What did we do wrong?

What? Look at that.

Kids these days have no manners.

What is this country coming to?

Where did Haseo go?

Haseo.

Haseo.

- Haseo. - Haseo.

- Haseo. - Haseo.

Haseo.

She was just here. Where'd she go?

- Haseo. - Haseo.

- Haseo. - Haseo.

- Haseo. - Let's go.

- Haseo. - Where'd she go?

Haseo!

What? An idol singer?

What are you going to do if grandfather finds out?

I'm really sorry.

But can you pretend for a while that you don't know about this?

This is not going to end well.

When he finds out what you're doing in Seoul,

he's going to shave your head and lock you up.

I won't say anything today,

but you better quit and come back home.

Do you understand?

He doesn't have a TV, so how's he going to find out?

My brother won't tell on me...

If I just get through this...

Get through what?

Are you okay?

Did something happen? You've been acting weird.

It's nothing.

We record tomorrow, right? We should go get some sleep.

I'm so tired.

Strange.

Everytime I tried to start over,

obstacles stood in my way

Thinking it'll never be

I cry like a fool, alone,

But even if I fall, I'm going to start over

Your wish, my wish, our wish added...

Stay a little stronger

As we look into each other's eyes

Where is the end to this glittering road

Over way up high, one for all

One for all

Okay, good. You can come out now.

Okay.

It's over.

- Good job. - Let's go.

You did well.

- Good job. - Thank you.

You were great. Great.

I can tell you've been practicing a lot.

You were great. We'll do a bit more later.

Okay!

Well done.

You've done your homework.

- Really? - Yeah. The harmony was good.

Thank you.

Have some water.

You got them water?

It's nice having a leader.

Well, my team has been working hard.

- Get some rest. - Okay.

Girls, good luck!

Everytime I tried to start over,

obstacles stood in my way

Thinking it'll never be

I cry like a fool, alone,

but even if I fall, I'm going to start over

Your wish, my wish, our wish added...

Stay a little stronger

Okay, stop.

Do it over. Focus!

From the top.

Everytime I tried to start over,

obstacles stood in my way

Thinking it'll never be

I cry like a fool, alone,

but even if I fall, I'm going to start over

Your wish, my wish, our wish added...

Stay a little stronger

As we look into each other's eyes

This isn't working.

Where is the end to this glittering road

Over way up high, one for...

Stop. Stop. You guys...

Did you practice at all?

You're off-key and the harmony is all wrong!

- We apologize. - We apologize.

Leader, what have you been doing?

You changed parts right before the recording

but you didn't bother to practice?

Forget about the harmony-

Yukika, you changed parts.

And Jane, you're off-key.

You two can't even sing your own parts properly.

Is this how you're going to do things?

You're even more of a mess after getting a new leader.

What? Do you have anything to say?

No.

I apologize. It's all my fault.

Sori...

We'll do it again next week.

Until then,

get them ready, do you understand?

I apologize.

Sori.

How about we just go back to our original parts?

Why? You already agreed to change it.

I know.

But I don't think Yukika can handle that part.

It's okay. I appreciate your concern,

but I'm the leader, so I'll take care of it.

Oh, is that so?

I'll talk to Danoh about it.

No, I'm out looking for the final mission location.

I need to look around a few more places.

Yes, tell them I'll be there later.

Yes, I understand.

We're going to practice our parts again so bring your sheet music.

Okay.

Geez, your stomach is so accurate as always.

Sori, I'm hungry. Can't we get something to eat

and start practicing tomorrow?

I promise to work really hard, starting tomorrow.

You guys don't take me seriously, do you?

What?

Why did you make me the leader if you were just going to do whatever you want?

Or is that why you chose me to be the leader?

Because I'm easy to control?

Sori.

Don't be like that. We...

The same goes for you.

The girls were so scared of you

but now, they just ignore everything I say.

It must be really funny for you, seeing me struggle.

Sori, how can you say that?

I know you've been having a hard time, but...

What do you guys know?

You think I wanted to be the leader?

Well I didn't. I don't want to be the leader.

Then don't do it.

What?

No one's going to blame you.

I know it's a hard position to be in for anyone.

So let's not fight amongst ourselves.

We understand how you feel.

- Sori. - Sori.

Sori.

Mr. Kang.

Shouldn't you be practicing right now?

Well...

I heard what happened at the recording studio.

Yet you have time to hang out here?

Are you so sure of your team?

It's not that...

Why did you tell us to change leaders?

I didn't tell you to do anything.

I just told you to choose your own leader.

So from the very beginning, you thought Youngjoo has what it takes to be the leader?

Then why...

I always thought Youngjoo would be a good leader.

She's decisive, she has leadership and charisma.

Anyone can see that.

However, she's had some trouble being your leader,

and you all had to learn for yourselves why.

If not, she wouldn't be able to demonstrate great leadership.

Of course, if you were better than her,

I thought that would be good too.

Anyone can become a leader,

but not just anyone can be a good leader.

And seeing your team now...

I can see what the result is.

Then...

What should our team do?

Why are you asking me?

It's up to you to choose your leader,

and deal with the outcome.

The competition isn't over yet.

Think about it.

What's the best choice for your team?

Shouldn't we go look for her?

Leave her alone.

She needs time to think.

It's my fault.

I shouldn't have...

That's alright.

Come here. We still need to practice.

I'll go over the parts with you until Sori comes back.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Jeewon, since you're done practicing,

can you go and buy something to eat?

We're going to be practicing late tonight.

Okay.

- Jane, you first. - Yeah.

Go.

Stay a little stronger

Clench your stomach more.

Go.

Stay a little stronger

Good.

Sori, it's me. Nayoung.

Yeah.

I didn't know if I should tell you or not,

but I thought you should know.

You didn't hear, did you?

About your dad's surgery.

What?

You dad has stomach cancer.

What?

Something came up so I have to go home.

I meant to tell you last time,

but your dad asked me not to. I'm sorry.

Are you kidding?

You still should've told me. How could you...

Your mom said she couldn't bring it up because you were so on edge.

That's why...

What? A girl group?

A girl group at near 30?

That's no guarantee you'll make it.

What?

Wake up before it's too late.

You should think about your parents.

Sori Kim? How old is she?

27? And she's still a trainee.

Whoa, that old.

She's practically a fossil.

She's too old to be an idol.

Time to give up. Stop being so obsessed.

Sori, you're pathetic.

Sori?

I thought you were busy? Why'd you come?

I just missed you.

You should've told us you were coming.

I would've gone to pick you up.

It's okay.

I'm not a kid.

Look. I can't wait to start.

Great facilities.

What's going on? Why are we at a gym and not at the river?

You seemed to be out of shape after taking a break,

so for the next few weeks, you're going to work out here.

Everyone's here, right?

Uh, Sori's not here yet...

Oh, something came up at home

so she went home for a while.

Home?

So suddenly?

She didn't say anything to us.

Warm up until Mr. Kang comes.

Okay.

What should we do?

Who wants to stretch with me?

There's so much equipment.

Jane.

- Aren't you going in? - What?

I should get some exercise.

Hello.

- Can I try this? - Sure, taste one.

- Is it good? - Yes.

It's good!

You like blood sausages. Let's buy some.

Can we get two portions?

Dad, stop buying so much.

You can eat as much as you want today.

- Thank you. - Eat, eat.

It's good.

Come on. Choose whatever you want.

- Hello. - Hi.

Your daughter is so pretty. She could be a celebrity.

She is. She's a singer.

Dad, I haven't even debuted yet.

Don't say that!

You've been on that internet show

and your producer is really famous.

I've heard everything.

And being my daughter, you look great on camera.

Do you want an autograph before she becomes famous?

- Sure, sure. - Okay.

- Dad. - Give her an autograph.

Make it pretty.

1, 2, 3, 4.

Jane, three more.

Go, go, go!

I can't, I can't.

Go!

If you're going to do it like that it's better not doing it at all.

Huh?

Then show us how to do it.

Look at those muscles.

He looks so attractive.

I think I'm in love.

Well, not bad.

Go, go, go, go!

One more time, Mr. Kang.

Go, go, go!

You know your dad had chronic gastritis?

It's been causing some problems.

But he was lucky to discover the cancer during an endoscope a while ago.

It was in the early stages so it wasn't that serious.

It's okay. Other than that, he's healthy.

The surgery went well, so there's hardly any chance of a relapse.

So don't worry too much.

No, I'm a terrible person.

I didn't even know dad had chronic gastritis.

He didn't want you to worry...

I know.

That's what makes me so mad.

My entire family is going through a hard time all because of me,

and here I am, not knowing anything,

following this crazy dream of becoming a singer.

Even though I'll never be one.

Don't say that!

You know how much your dad wants you to become a singer.

Why would you say that?

I've tried so hard for years and nothing's happened.

I should've quit a long time ago.

But what makes me so mad is

that I can't bring myself to quit.

Sori.

What should I do?

I'm driving myself crazy.

What?

What did you say?

I'm right, aren't I?

You're daughter is almost 30 and it's time she got married.

How dare you!

Honey, let him go.

She may be a trainee,

but it's not like she earns any money.

Or pays for your medicine.

It's the same as being unemployed.

What does it matter to you?

I'm just saying because it's frustrating.

Does she even know you're ill?

Should I tell her myself?

How dare you say such a thing?

- Stop it. Let me go!

How can you do this to me?

Dad!

Are you mad?

He doesn't know anything. Don't be mad.

Are you mad because I didn't tell you about the surgery?

It may be cancer, but it was very minor.

I got surgery and I'm all better now. So...

Stop it.

How much guiltier are you going to make me feel?

He was right too, you know.

What?

I am unemployed and untalented.

And I'm an embarrassment to you both.

What?

So I'm going to quit.

I'm going to quit trying to be an idol singer,

and come back home.

Says who?

Dad.

Why should you quit? There's nothing wrong with you.

It's been 10 years.

You know that.

I'm only embarrassing myself. I can't do it anymore.

It's more embarrassing to make excuses and run away.

Dad.

Focus, focus!

I told you if you don't focus, working out is pointless.

Yes.

- Kika! - Kika!

- Are you okay? - Kika.

Kika.

- Kika. - Are you okay?

- Kika. - Are you okay?

Are you okay?

I told you to focus. Let me see.

Come on.

It isn't serious but she needs to go to the hospital.

You and the girls go back to the office.

Okay.

Oh no...

Let's go get our stuff.

Okay.
