"TRAUMEREI" FROM SCHUMANN'S "KINDERSZENEN", PIANIST YOO TAE JIN

LEE MIN JAE, I JUST LOVE YOUR PIECE.

CHOI YU JIN, PROFESSOR, IT'S AMAZING.

Mr. Producer. What's that on YouTube?

- Why was that in the track... - Professor Yoo.

I heard it and liked it so much, I sent it to them.

You said it was a casual recording.

My gosh, I was shocked.

How could you do that without talking to me?

Would it be rude to say it's better than your last album?

I said I'd do everything I could to help.

I'm driving right now. Let's talk soon.

But I...

"TRAUMEREI" FROM SCHUMANN'S "KINDERSZENEN", PIANIST YOO TAE JIN

IT'S THE FIRST TIME MUSIC MADE ME CRY.

LIKE PROFESSOR, LIKE STUDENT.

- Professor. - Why are you here so late?

How could you ask?

The "Traumerei" recording.

I played the recording that was uploaded under your name.

Why does it say you played it?

Did you leave a recorder in this room?

Was it so good you thought it was your recording?

Should I thank you for that?

I'm not mistaken. I know my music when I hear it.

Okay. Then talk to the person who uploaded it.

Don't cause a fuss here.

Anyway, can you even prove it's your recording?

"TRAUMEREI" FROM SCHUMANN'S "KINDERSZENEN", PIANIST YOO TAE JIN

I'm sorry for coming by.

I was worried.

You didn't answer your phone.

Did you listen to it?

It's yours, isn't it?

What happened?

- Why is your recording under... - It's not mine.

It is yours.

- Why are you lying? - It's not like that.

- It's just... - Do you know what happened?

It's not something to ignore.

Your music was stolen.

- You must sort it out. - Jung Kyung.

I'll deal with it.

Whether it's mine or not, it's my problem.

Thank you for your concern,

but I'd like you to stop visiting.

CALL HISTORY, PARK JOON YOUNG

Jung Kyung.

I wish...

you'd stop coming here now.

It's easy for me to be mistaken if you come here so late.

No matter how close of a friend you are.

You should worry...

more about Joon Young than me.

EPISODE 14: A TEMPO, IN TIME, RETURN TO ORIGINAL SPEED

The piano's sensors...

replicate the player's touch down to the pedals.

If you teach, don't you need the copy function?

- Is this a copy of what you played? - Yes.

I'd heard about this piano.

It's so wonderful.

Can I mention it in this interview?

NEW MESSAGE, PARK JOON YOUNG

PARK JOON YOUNG

May I practice in your office right now, professor?

Sure. You practice all you want.

Come in.

I'm going to go soon, so practice comfortably.

- See you. - Thank you.

RECORDING

- Hello. - Hi.

Mr. Producer.

I just emailed it to you. Have a casual listen.

Yes.

No, it's a casual recording. No pressure.

EMAIL WAS SENT SUCCESSFULLY.

PARK JOON YOUNG

MIN SEONG

Kang Min Seong, we're only 20.

You can meet someone much better than Dong Yun.

How do you know that?

Because you're my friend.

Song Ah.

Song Ah.

I feel a bit better now.

- Really? - Yes.

That's a relief.

- Song Ah, if you... - What?

If you want to cry about something,

promise to call me.

Then I'll come running.

MIN SEONG

- You're home. - Yes.

What's wrong? Did you and your boyfriend fight?

What's with her?

Did she really fight with him?

SONG AH, SOMETHING SUDDENLY CAME UP, SO I'M GOING HOME.

I'M SORRY.

Today will be the last time...

I see Jung Kyung.

I wish you'd stop coming here now.

You should worry more about Joon Young than me.

Want some beer?

- No. - Why not?

Then I'll just drink and go.

Go drink in your room.

I don't like drinking alone.

I won't take up much of your time.

What are you going to do?

What?

Are you going to keep doing it?

Do what?

What you love.

Oh.

I don't know.

You don't know?

Why?

You always told me to quit.

I was just saying.

To be honest,

I admired you.

It's not an easy choice.

To start late and study for three more years...

to study at the Department of Music.

It's rare to try that hard just by liking something.

But you know...

These days,

it feels like...

no matter how much I like something,

some things are just impossible in life.

I keep thinking that.

Impossible?

Is there something else besides the violin?

If it doesn't work out, you can quit.

No matter what others say,

make a decision that will make you happy.

Whether it's the violin or anything else.

Don't we all make choices to be happy?

I brought all of my work back home, but drank beer.

Drink with me next time.

I better go now.

- Goodnight. - You too.

"TRAUMEREI" FROM SCHUMANN'S "KINDERSZENEN", PIANIST YOO TAE JIN

Did you talk to Joon Young about it?

Yes. He said he'll take care of it.

That's so like him.

I want to ask you something.

That's why I asked if you can meet me today.

What is Joon Young and Professor Yoo's relationship like?

Come to think of it, I don't think Joon Young...

ever mentioned Professor Yoo.

I don't know well either.

But Professor Yoo and Joon Young didn't get along that well.

What do you mean?

How did they not get along?

You know those types of professors who pressure you mentally?

He was that type.

When Joon Young prepared for the Chopin Competition,

he received a lot of stress.

He should've said something and changed his teacher then.

Our foundation...

or I could've searched for another teacher for him.

Who would teach Joon Young?

Anyone in the music industry...

would know that he was Professor Yoo's pupil.

There are some things that you just can't do, Jung Kyung.

Still, I have to try something.

We're friends, after all.

Jung Kyung, to me, you...

were never a friend.

We were in a relationship for 10 years, you know.

That's why on my way here after you called me,

my head was full of so many things.

Since it wasn't a friend who called me,

but you.

How could you casually say that we're friends now?

You know I'll stay beside you no matter what you do.

So I guess you don't know how much it hurts...

when I hear you say something like that.

I didn't mean it like that.

I don't know...

what to do about Joon Young either.

I heard you went through something very hard lately too.

I better go now.

"TRAUMEREI" FROM SCHUMANN'S "KINDERSZENEN", PIANIST YOO TAE JIN

My gosh.

What on earth is this?

I couldn't think of a way...

to call the person who manages this channel.

I'm sorry to bother you.

No, it's okay. Wait a minute.

I need to think.

First of all, we can report this as infringement of copyright.

But...

it won't be easy to prove this is your recording.

Still, I'll look into it.

And I'll try to find out who operates this channel.

Thank you, Young In.

- You can also take legal... - No.

I don't want to go that far.

Please don't call Professor Yoo for now.

Why?

I just hope they remove this video as soon as possible.

That's my foremost priority. That's it.

But why?

Because of Song Ah.

I don't want her to know about this recording.

I don't want her to be concerned.

I understand.

But I have to tell Mr. Park.

Whether you like it or not,

he's your current manager.

Our foundation cannot help you officially right now.

So you must tell Mr. Park.

Okay.

Did he secretly install a recording device or what?

How strange.

But Joon Young.

I know you may not be pleased about this, but actually,

this could be a good opportunity.

An opportunity?

Listen. That channel has many subscribers,

and the reactions are amazing too.

But what if they find out that recording has been stolen...

and that it's yours?

A teacher stole his student's piece?

How hot is that?

Do you think this is fun?

I'm your representative.

And let me finish first.

If we mention this on the reality TV show we talked about...

I said I wouldn't go on TV.

Mr. Park. What is it you want to do, then?

You asked me to book you recitals and events.

Don't you need money?

- What is it you want? - For this video to come down.

What?

That's all I want.

That's it?

Mr. Park, that's something...

I can do with just a phone call.

I know this person well.

But the real... Gosh, you're frustrating.

What are you doing when the almighty gave you...

an opportunity to save your failing career?

Fine. The Traumerei recording will become a huge waste,

but if you want that so much, I'll get it taken down. Don't worry.

Think again about appearing on the reality show.

Okay?

Hello?

Oh, you're the accompanist I contacted.

Yes. I said no then because my schedule was packed,

but I'm free now.

Did you find someone?

Joon Young. Where are you?

JOON YOUNG. WHERE ARE YOU?

PARK JOON YOUNG

Hello?

Song Ah, it's me.

I know.

Did you eat something?

Are you on campus?

I'm in a practice room.

Are you here too?

No. I had some business elsewhere.

When will you be back?

Today...

Will you not come here today?

No. I'll be there.

Then let's meet up for a bit in the evening.

I'll call after my lecture.

Because of Song Ah.

I don't want her to know about this recording.

I don't want her to be concerned.

I heard about the recording. Are you okay?

I HEARD ABOUT THE RECORDING. ARE YOU OKAY?

Hey, hey.

Is that the best you can do?

Can't you give it a deeper sound?

My goodness...

Ma'am.

Can't you do something about her instrument?

Professor Choi commented on her violin last time,

and I was so embarrassed.

Kyunghoo Cultural Foundation rents out...

some nice instruments to their scholarship students.

I promise to apply for it...

next term.

Kyunghoo Cultural Foundation?

But then, you're well-connected with Jung Kyung.

- You can do that. - No.

We're not well-connected.

- I don't even have her number. - I'm sure.

Try again.

I see.

Jung Kyung lost Joon Young...

and Professor Song Jeong Hee as well.

What can we do? I feel bad for her,

but I can only hope she gets over it.

Right.

Has it been 15 years since we talked about Jung Kyung for so long?

In that time, she grew up and I got old.

You're pretty old yourself, aren't you?

Only Kyung Seon looks the same.

But still, Jung Kyung had you by her side.

That was a good thing.

Was it?

I thought so too, but Jung Kyung said...

it wasn't me or you that comforted her.

She said it was Joon Young playing that piano.

I can't reach the person who runs the YouTube channel.

I'll sort it out soon.

Okay, thank you. Please do that.

DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC, 2ND ART BUILDING

- I'm here. - Hello.

Yesterday evening,

I went to the café to see you.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't there until you arrived.

So...

I went to your place that evening.

But...

I saw Jung Kyung outside.

Last night, what was Jung Kyung...

doing at your place at that time?

She came over without calling.

I don't think...

she has completely sorted herself out.

I'm sorry.

Why do you keep saying you're sorry?

You said you'd wait for me but you didn't.

You said you wouldn't see her again but you keep doing so.

Why do something you feel bad about?

I don't know why...

I'm the only one feeling anxious because I'm dating you.

Right now,

everything else is already too much for me.

Song Ah.

You keep making excuses for Jung Kyung.

- It's not an excuse. - What is it, then?

Is it not you who hasn't...

completely sorted yourself out yet?

Song Ah.

I booked this room from 9pm onward.

I'm sorry.

We're leaving.

Song Ah.

I should go.

PRACTICE ROOM

Song Ah.

Song Ah.

I'm sorry.

I'm in the wrong.

For not waiting for you,

for not calling you,

and for upsetting you about Jung Kyung.

I'm sorry for it all.

Everything is my fault, so...

don't walk out like that.

Okay?

THE NEXT EPISODE WILL AIR SOON

I heard many people compliment your master class.

You should keep up the good work.

What's with the face?

Is it because of what happened to Jung Kyung?

Does it make you feel uncomfortable that you might become a professor?

Dong Yun.

When I returned to Korea,

I felt so excited.

I was finally able to live in the same country as Jung Kyung.

But...

That's why it's so hard now.

Seoul is too small,

and this field is even smaller.

I keep bumping into her and hearing rumours.

It's so painful.

THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING IN THE RECENT...

NEW YORK SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA SECTION CELLO AUDITION.

WE ARE PLEASED TO OFFER YOU A POSITION IN THE CELLO SECTION.

Welcome.

Mom.

Did you come after practice?

It's late. Why didn't you go straight home?

I wanted to see you.

Gosh, I'm glad there's still someone who comes to see me here.

I'm so happy you're in Korea.

Mom...

What is it?

MISSED CALL FROM PARK JOON YOUNG

LEE JUNG KYUNG

DELETE NUMBER

WILL YOU DELETE THIS NUMBER?

SONG AH, CAN WE TALK?

SONG AH, CAN YOU COME OUT FOR A MINUTE?

SONG AH, PLEASE CALL ME.

SONG AH, PLEASE CALL ME.

- Hello. - Hi.

- Oh, Hae Na. - Yes?

If you're not going abroad to study, do you want to work at my chamber?

Sorry? What about Song Ah?

She wants to quit.

She said she can't do it.

How could a mere assistant say something like that?

How ridiculous.

Anyhow, think about it and tell me, okay?

- Okay. - How is your father?

- He's good. - Okay. I'll give him a call.

- Have a good day. - Bye.

- Don't forget to practice. - Okay.

Professor Yoo.

Who are you?

You're from Kyunghoo...

- What? - I talked to that YouTuber.

He's going to delete that video within an hour or two.

Thank you.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't there until you arrived.

I don't think...

she has completely sorted herself out.

Is it not you who hasn't...

completely sorted yourself out yet?

TO LEE JUNG KYUNG

Must I explain more?

I knew as soon as I heard that recording.

That it was played by the same person.

Delete the video and apologize to Joon Young.

Jung Kyung.

I told you...

that I'd take care of it.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

Anyhow, thank you.

Goodbye.

Why did you play...

"Traumerei"?

You said you'd never play it again.

Why did you play it?

"Traumerei"...

was a piece...

that I always played first for 15 years...

when I sat in front of the piano.

I wanted to say goodbye to all that time.

That's why I played it for one last time.

One last time?

Does Song Ah know about what happened?

You hid it from her.

Joon Young.

Do you know why you hid it from her?

It's because the piece you played was "Traumerei".

That's why you didn't want her to know.

You haven't gotten over me.

That's why you wanted to...

delete that video before Song Ah found out.

No.

It's not because I haven't gotten over you,

but because I like Song Ah.

I didn't want her to know...

because I like her.

I didn't want...

to see her get hurt by it.

Song Ah.

Yes?

Joon Young is playing...

"Traumerei" again.

He's playing "Traumerei" again.

You can listen to it if you want. It's on YouTube.

What?

You really don't know anything.

Although the video is under Professor Yoo Tae Jin's name,

it's actually what Joon Young played recently.

You know what...

"Traumerei" means to Joon Young, right?

- Yes, but... - Joon Young...

sent recordings of "Traumerei" every year on my birthday.

And he played that song again a few days ago.

Do you know what that means?

Shouldn't we believe it?

That music can provide consolation.

Because...

we're all people who chose to play music.

I...

truly believed that.

So...

at this moment,

I hoped...

to be consoled...

just a little bit.

By something I loved...

and chose to love,

which was music.

But...

that hope...

did not come true.

Your bridge collapsed? How?

It's rare for a bridge to collapse.

I hope it's just the bridge though.

If it cracked the surface too, you're in trouble.

It might be hard to fix.

Chae Song Ah.

Yes?

Is something wrong?

No.

Look at me. Go on.

What?

What is it?

It's nothing.

I need to go out for a bit.

Where to?

The convenience store.

Min Seong.

DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC, 2ND ART BUILDING

Joon Young.

Let's...

PRACTICE ROOM

stop.

What?

Let's...

stop seeing each other.

I can't...

do this anymore.

- Song Ah. - I'm struggling, Joon Young.

I feel anxious.

I get hurt,

and I'm wavering.

I wanted to do everything well.

Play the violin well,

and be on good terms with you.

But...

I think there are things that just don't work.

I realized that now.

Because of you...

No.

Because of my emotions that are under your influence,

it feels like everything's become a mess.

I don't want that anymore.

I want to...

go back to when I felt less anxious.

It was hard and people hurt me,

but at least I was going somewhere on my own.

At least...

I knew where I was headed.

I want to go back to that.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for making you feel anxious.

I'm...

I'm sorry for everything, so...

I wanted to lean on you.

Lean on me.

Lean on me. Whenever it gets too hard for you...

How can I lean on you?

How can I lean on you when...

you're even more unstable?

I heard the Traumerei recording.

Song Ah, that was...

I played that for the last time.

- For one last time. - Your feelings for Jung Kyung.

I tried to understand them.

What is so complicated when you say...

you don't love her anymore, but yet you can't cut her off?

Rather than me who is just an onlooker,

it might be harder for you.

I comforted myself so.

But...

you once told me.

Will it be okay if...

I don't go?

Yes. It's okay.

Think only about yourself. Don't think about others.

So now...

I'll think about myself.

I hurt myself way too much...

trying to understand you.

I don't want to do that anymore.

I just...

want to focus on myself.

It's...

just so hard...

to love you.

I don't feel happy.

SEORYEONG UNIVERSITY

Take it.
