Joon Young.

- Hello. - Are you going home?

Yes.

Great timing.

Can you come somewhere with me?

Pardon?

Am I really allowed to tag along?

Of course you can.

And I need to come with you if I'm to be told off less.

I unwittingly let out a huge secret.

Pardon?

Anyway, do you have anything to ask me?

Like... What?

I know everything about Song Ah.

There must be a lot you want to know.

It's true.

We don't have any secrets. We can't have any secrets.

The moment you upset Song Ah,

I will hear of it immediately.

That's how close we are.

Right.

Just how much Song Ah likes you,

I know better than you do.

She never said she likes something other than playing the violin.

So please take good care of her for me.

Oh, sure.

Just a moment.

Hey, Eun Ji.

I'm on my way. I'm in a taxi.

Okay.

Thank you.

There they are.

Song Ah doesn't know you're coming.

Let's sneak in and surprise them.

The thing is, Dong Yun.

I...

like Joon Young very much.

Is that...

your answer?

Is that your answer...

to my confession?

I...

liked you too.

For a very long time.

Very much.

That was the secret I didn't want...

anyone to know.

But...

Min Seong.

Min Seong.

Min Seong.

I told Joon Young...

we have no secrets.

I bragged that...

that's how close we are.

Min Seong.

But I had no idea you liked Dong Yun.

No, listen to...

Don't talk.

I don't want to listen.

Did you enjoy making me a fool?

Drink some water.

I didn't want to hurt her.

So I pretended...

not to know or...

pretended many things weren't true.

I thought I was being considerate.

Min Seong will be very hurt.

Feeling like a fool.

I know so well...

what that feels like.

That's why I feel so bad.

Why is it so hard?

(Episode 10: Sotto voce, In a whisper)

Song Ah.

- Song Ah. - Yes?

Were you listening?

Let's have everyone buy five more tickets each.

Okay.

Wait.

- Five more per person? - Yes.

It's our first performance. We must sell out.

It's 50 dollars per ticket, so that's 250 dollars per member.

We can all chip in. Isn't that nice?

Professor Lee.

Yes? What is it?

Well...

The members already bought 5 to 20 tickets.

Asking them to buy more would be...

Would be what?

- Never mind. - You might as well say it.

Well, what I meant was...

If the members buy out all the tickets,

the public can't get tickets to...

see us play even if they want to.

So I thought it would be better to leave a few rows available.

My goodness.

You're so right.

My gosh, Song Ah. How come you're so smart?

Gosh. Okay then.

Have the members buy just 3 more, not 5.

My goodness...

I won't do it.

I know exactly what your concern is. I do.

We won't take the cheap emotional approach at all.

You're my artist.

Of course I'd...

I'll see to that.

I still won't do it.

I don't want to talk about my family on TV for...

Joon Young.

If Seung Ji Min were to appear on such a program,

then he can talk only about music.

But your situation's a little different.

Okay?

I'll drop some hard facts.

People don't care about your music.

To get people interested in your music,

I'm saying that in reality, it's quicker to get them...

interested in something else about you first.

It's the year 2020.

People no longer flock to a lone musician...

who plays alone.

If you do nothing and end up forgotten,

Are you going to play the piano...

alone in your room and stay broke?

To do what you want to do,

you must learn to deal with and do some things you don't want to.

- Mr. Park. - I'm a representative now.

I'm in charge of your management within Korea.

Not currently.

It's prospective.

I haven't cleared it with Chris yet.

I must buy more tickets?

Yes. Not that many.

Three more each.

- So... - Song Ah.

Yes?

I can buy three more tickets, no problem.

"Shall we get together with Professor Lee and study music?"

"Shall we experience the joy of playing?"

You know that's not what it's about, right?

As a member myself, I'm in no position to complain,

but to be honest, I'm not that proud...

of being in this orchestra.

You're ripping off the other students...

just to butter up the professor.

Aren't you ashamed?

I know it's so you can get into graduate school.

I'll wire you the money for the tickets later.

- Oh, did these just come in? - Yes.

Jung Kyung. This.

Would it suit Professor Choi?

- Yes, it looks nice. - Does it?

- I'll take it. - Yes, ma'am.

Don't you need anything?

No, I'm fine.

Buy an outfit while you're here.

Pardon?

I'd been meaning to ask you.

You're in your prime and you're pretty too.

Why do you dress so dowdy?

When you were young,

your mother dressed you so carefully.

- Bring her a few outfits. - I will.

No, don't mind me.

Wear something brighter today.

For my sake.

It's your friend.

Hello.

Excuse me.

Go on ahead.

Why are you here?

Min Seong.

Song Ah.

So listen.

I can't control how Dong Yun feels,

so I'm not...

blaming you for the fact that he liked you. But...

If I were you,

I wouldn't have liked him. No.

I don't think I could have.

That's a true friend.

Min Seong, I'm really sorry.

- I really... - Leave it and go.

[Kocowa Ver] SBS E19 'Do You Like Brahms?' "Sotto Voce,In a Whisper" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥- Synced with Subcake Android

Jung Kyung.

I'm dating Song Ah.

Why would you say that?

My gosh. It suits you so well.

It's a tough dress to pull off.

Yes, you look lovely.

Have you decided what to wear for your recital?

Not yet.

Whether it's an old outfit or a new one,

show it to me first, okay?

Yes.

- Who will play piano? - I found someone.

Really? Who?

Park Joon Young.

Yes, Park Joon Young.

That's a good choice.

How much does he charge you?

Pardon?

It's the first time I've fought with a friend since elementary school.

Min Seong and I didn't exactly fight, but still.

How about you wait a little before calling her?

She'll need some time to think.

Right.

Don't worry too much and cheer up.

In time, Min Seong will realize what you meant to do.

Will she?

She will.

Soo Kyung, it's been a long time.

You're here.

- Soo Kyung, you're here. - Hello.

Wait, who's that with you?

Oh, she'll be my assistant next year.

Since you're the dean?

I heard you became the dean.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

You're so talented.

It's nothing. It's just the natural course of things.

Gosh, Jeong Hee!

- Jeong Hee! - Jeong Hee!

You're here.

Jeong Hee, this place is so lovely.

I'm glad you like it.

I felt sorry for making you guys come a long way.

- No problem. - It's okay.

By the way, this is Lee Jung Kyung.

She's my student.

- Hello. - She's so pretty.

She is, right?

Jung Kyung received her PhD...

from Julliard recently.

She'll replace me at Seoryeong University when I retire.

Brava, brava!

You did a great job today.

Thank you.

Jeong Hee, I can tell you've raised so many great pupils.

I don't know how much her career will flourish,

but the fact that she was taught by Professor Song...

will never be forgotten.

Never forget that a teacher's reputation...

is directly connected to a pupil's success.

Of course.

I know that very well.

My students are so good,

and I can't help but feel so proud.

Young In.

Joon Young.

Are you here to practice?

I'm sorry. Do I smell like cigarettes?

It's okay.

Didn't you say you were going to quit smoking?

Did you fail?

I totally failed.

Goodness, habits are so hard to fix.

Quitting something I'm so used to affects my whole life as well.

I know.

How do you know?

What kind of habit did you fix?

Whenever I sat in front of the piano,

there was a piece I always played first before I started.

I did that for about 15 years.

Gosh, I heard all musicians have their own routine.

You had one too. I didn't know.

Yes. But...

I don't play it anymore.

Why not?

I want to fix my habit.

It's been a while since I haven't played it.

What piece is it?

What is it? You're making me curious.

But I wonder...

if we really have to force ourselves...

to fix old habits.

Why do you think habits are habits?

We get used to them naturally...

and in some way, they're a part of our lives.

If we try to force ourselves to fix old habits...

and ruin other things during that process,

wouldn't it be better to just let it be?

Goodnight.

- Goodnight. - I'll call you later.

Goodnight.

We'll be going too.

Thank you for coming today.

- Goodnight. - Thank you.

- I'll call you next time. - Okay.

Song Ah. Ask someone else for a ride, okay?

Okay.

- I'll call you later. - Okay, bye.

Goodnight.

I had a good time today, Professor Song.

- Goodnight. - Have a good night.

You too.

Goodnight, ma'am...

Thank you for the master class last time.

I'm glad you liked it.

Is the gathering over?

Do you feel uncomfortable right now?

It's okay.

You'll keep feeling uncomfortable...

from now on.

I'm not saying I'll try to do anything.

I'm just going to...

do what I have to do in my place,

and Joon Young will do the same.

But I'm...

just waiting.

Just like how Joon Young...

waited for me all this time.

If we try to force ourselves to fix old habits...

and ruin other things during that process,

wouldn't it be better to just let it be?

Song Ah.

- Song Ah. - Yes?

Did something happen at today's gathering?

Well, just...

Over there.

Isn't that your place?

Yes. How did you know?

Can I...

go to...

your place?

Give me a second.

Come on in.

Thank you.

Wait.

Gosh, this place is so clean.

Do you always live so neatly?

I hope you think so.

- Have a seat. - Okay.

Would you like some tea? I don't have any coffee.

Yes, tea is fine.

But I don't have any ice either.

Is hot tea okay?

Yes, I'd like that.

What a lovely view.

You can see Kyunghoo from here.

A bit too well.

Yes.

It must be too bright at night.

My place is so bare, isn't it?

No. I just...

I just wanted to visit.

I want to know more about you.

What more do you know about me now?

You don't have that much stuff.

You clean your place pretty well.

Joon Young, are you okay?

Were you hurt?

No.

Don't touch it. You'll hurt your hand.

Do you have wet wipes?

Yes, in my desk drawer.

Your drawer? Stay very still.

Step back, Joon Young.

Leave it. I'll do it.

I said don't. You play the piano.

Don't you play the violin?

Let me clean up.

You're tired, aren't you?

It's late. I should get going.

It's raining.

Can you lend me an umbrella?

You'll keep feeling uncomfortable...

from now on.

I'm not saying I'll try to do anything.

But I'm...

just waiting.

Your drawer? Stay very still.

(Power off)

(String Instrument professor candidate master class)

(Han Hyeon Ho, cello)

Good job.

Let me point out a few things.

First of all, if you look here,

the phrasing should be a little longer.

It felt a bit short.

If you look at this part...

- Doesn't he explain really well? - Yes, he's pretty good.

He's quite talented.

Oh, my. You were here too.

I said hi to you earlier.

Did you? Sorry.

What do you think of Han Hyeon Ho?

He's good.

He's a member of my chamber.

Gosh, really?

My goodness. I'm surprised.

Why are you laughing?

Sometimes, you really surprise me.

You seem so unbiased sometimes.

Han Hyeon Ho dated Jung Kyung for a long time,

so I thought you'd feel uncomfortable.

But you just focus on talent, don't you?

I admire you, Soo Kyung.

Why are you here?

Good job today.

If you're not busy, go and practice for Jung Kyung's recital.

Hyeon Ho.

I'm sorry.

For what?

I...

used to like Jung Kyung.

But I don't anymore.

That's why I can play for her.

You don't like her anymore?

No.

You shouldn't have liked her from the beginning.

Even if you had feelings for her, you should've stopped.

If you couldn't stop, you shouldn't have let her know.

If you couldn't do both...

You should've told me at least.

If you had told me at least once,

I wouldn't have let Jung Kyung drift away like that.

I would've done anything.

I wouldn't have stayed friends with you at least.

I'm sorry.

Whatever the reason may be,

I'm really sorry. But, Hyeon Ho.

I didn't want to lose you.

- Hyeon Ho. - Park Joon Young.

You've already lost me...

and I'll never come back.

There's no need to try.

Hello.

Welcome. How can I help you?

I want to replace my bow hair.

- Oh, your bow hair? - Sir, I brought back...

Dong Yun, hold on. You want to change your bow hair?

Wait a second.

You've already lost me...

and I'll never come back.

Our practice is tomorrow, right?

Gosh, this feels so awkward.

Did you go to that shop because it's awkward to see me?

Yes.

It feels awkward.

I've been friends with Min Seong for 10 years.

But look what happened.

How can I...

look at you comfortably as if nothing happened?

Haven't you been...

friends with me for 10 years too?

That's why you and I...

should've just stayed friends.

But we failed to do that.

I'm not trying to blame you.

I'm sorry.

I need to go.

(Not every good teacher is a good performer.)

Hey.

Have a seat.

I'm home.

What about dinner?

- It's okay. - Okay.

My appointment recital for Seoryeong University.

Joon Young will play the piano for me.

Oh, really?

How much did you pay Joon Young...

for the house concert last time?

20,000 dollars.

20,000 dollars?

Joon Young played the piano all his life...

to send money to his family and barely got along.

And he made a huge decision...

to take a break for a year.

Of course he should be paid that much.

You asked him to play for you without even considering that?

- Oh, are you finished? - Yes.

Let's see. Where...

The latter part...

The latter part is...

Let's call it a day and reschedule.

Joon Young, is Professor Yoo feeling okay?

Sorry?

He released an album over the summer.

I think he's a bit sensitive lately because of that.

- Can I have a glass? - Yes.

Thank you.

Let me.

[Kocowa Ver] SBS E20 'Do You Like Brahms?' "Sotto Voce,In a Whisper" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥- Synced with Subcake Android

Joon Young.

When you see kids like Seung Ji Min,

what do you think?

He's a good junior.

Just about that.

Is that it?

Yes.

You fool.

Do you think I'm asking about his temperament?

Then what should I think?

"I need you to do poorly if I'm to do well."

Should I wish for him to fail?

Should I pray that...

he ruins a performance...

or loses his talent?

Yes. That's what you should do.

That is what a human would do.

Why did you smile?

I realized that you and I are different.

That's the reason. That's why you're struggling.

If you slipped up and got trampled on,

you should get angry, determined, and try harder.

If I want more,

do I always get more?

What if you don't even want more?

If you don't even want more,

then you get nowhere.

That's why I came back to you.

To enter another competition.

To ask for your help.

Right.

So get first place.

So no one can belittle you.

(Representative Park Seong Jae)

I hope I gain your trust.

Don't say that.

We should gain yours.

Did you come all the way to Daejeon to say this?

Of course I should greet you in person.

You're the mother of my artist.

Gosh, no...

We did nothing to help Joon Young play the piano.

If it hadn't been for Kyunghoo Foundation,

I have no idea how we would have supported him.

Oh, silly me.

My husband's in. Wait while I...

No, ma'am, wait.

There's something I must say to you first.

- To me? - Yes.

- Good luck with your practice. - Thanks.

I'm not sure if I can come back after practicing at Kyunghoo.

That's okay.

After I'm done with my accompanist,

it'll be dinnertime already.

Then let's talk on the phone afterwards.

Okay.

A future Seoryeong University professor?

It's over when she retires.

She wants to control the place even after she's gone.

Sometimes, you really surprise me.

You seem so unbiased sometimes.

Han Hyeon Ho dated Jung Kyung for a long time,

so I thought you'd feel uncomfortable.

But you just focus on talent, don't you?

I admire you, Soo Kyung.

Why does he want to join my chamber orchestra if he's dating Jung Kyung?

What is he up to?

Am I that much of a pushover?

No, wait.

It feels wrong.

- Yes, professor. - Hi, Song Ah.

Don't contact Han Hyeon Ho anymore.

Pardon?

Send Han Hyeon Ho out of our orchestra.

But...

I already told him about our dinner.

Already?

Call him and tell him not to come.

Come up with some reason but don't blame me.

Do you get what I mean?

She gets things done so quickly.

Hello.

Did you practice a bit?

Yes.

Da Woon said we could use the room.

Someone else reserved to use the rehearsal room first.

There must've been a mistake.

Are you still on campus?

Then I'll come over.

What? No, let's not practice here.

Then where shall we go? You don't want to come to my place.

I'll be there in 30. See you there.

I've been telling you all the time.

You're fine on your own, but you struggle with the piano.

You have a certain tempo in your mind, right?

- Yes. - See?

Then you must stick to that tempo and lead me on.

You can't let me control you.

Are you not confident about your music?

I'm sorry.

Don't just say you're sorry.

Try again.

Okay.

Are you entering a competition?

Why?

Your pieces look like competition entry pieces.

Yes, I'm entering one.

Tchaikovsky?

Yes.

Why?

Is there another reason to enter a competition?

Joon Young.

Mom, my practice just ended. I'm so tired.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Song Ah, good luck.

Goodbye.

- Over there! Let's go. - Where?

He's in there.

- He's on a totally different level. - I know.

He really is a world-class musician.

- That's insane. - He's so good.

Who's playing the violin?

Isn't that Lee Jung Kyung?

- Gosh. Really? - It is.

She's amazing.

Between you and Jung Kyung...

I mean, between the years you two have known each other...

Is there any space...

for me?

(Do You Like Brahms?)

How did you know I was here?

- You always go to the same places. - Do you want to have a drink?

I heard a rumor that you and Joon Young are dating.

I know that you like him, but unfortunately...

What are you thinking of so hard? Are you sick?

I'm losing confidence suddenly.

Why did you meet her?

What's a manager for?

I didn't buy a ticket back to Seoul.

What about you?

- I didn't buy one either. - Why are you smiling?

Aren't we going back to Seoul?
