(Early Employment Is Best)

(Job Fair)

- Over there. - Okay.

- Please wait! - Let's go.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

Nice to meet you.

They don't get very good grades,

but they're super smart.

- Please give them a shot. - Don't you worry.

Please fill this out.

(Resume)

Why do you want to stay here?

Well, my grandmother is here...

and so are my friends.

There will be many more opportunities...

if you leave the island.

I don't care.

I need to stay in Geoje.

In that case...

(Hannam Industries Special Hire Program)

Let's look around.

I thought you were going to a bank.

Banks are hard to get,

so I want to apply to the shipyards too.

Mr. Han agreed.

But my dad says he'll never let me go there.

Didn't your dad work at a shipbuilding company?

Exactly. I don't want to work...

at a company for long.

I want to start my own business.

So it can either be a shipyard or a bank.

But my dad wants me to find a lifelong job.

I don't know.

I'll apply without my dad's knowing.

Is Shi Eun really not going to college?

I know. What a waste.

You are so hardworking.

You maintained good grades, too.

I think it's only natural to work hard.

That's what school is about.

Your parents must be so happy.

So many kids go to college and waste money,

and can't even get jobs.

They must be happy their daughter is so mature.

You need to submit your applications soon.

Are you sure you won't regret it?

Mr. Han, you were right. My dream of becoming...

a movie director was a bluff.

So I definitely do not regret giving it up.

- Definitely not. - Are you joking with me?

Yes, sir.

Bye.

That brat.

She skipped breakfast for six months...

because she won't admit she was wrong.

Hey. Do you think she's doing that...

because she doesn't want to apologize?

She's avoiding me in case...

I tell her to go to college.

Will you talk to her?

She refuses to go.

How could I persuade her?

The deadline is tomorrow, right?

No, it's today.

Didn't you apply? Aren't you ruined then?

You didn't apply?

She can't go to college.

- Did you apply? - I did.

I think I'll pass this round.

That's good.

Are you finally going to Seoul?

Well, for me,

Seoul is my home.

Would you go back to Seoul?

This is my home.

Don't you fret.

I won't be clingy.

That's a relief.

But you'll do what I asked, right?

What do you want to drink?

Shi Ra. You're a real punk.

What?

What's with him?

Okay.

Do Yun and Young Ji will start on-site training.

At the same company, too. Applause.

- Yes! - No more school!

This is great!

One more.

Someone here had...

her application accepted by four-year colleges.

By three of them, too.

Shi Eun. Congratulations.

I never sent in an application.

I did.

Awesome.

Gyeonghan University? This is a good school.

- Even I know that school. - I'm so jealous.

At least take the exam. It's next month,

so if you start preparing...

Why is he doing that? You said no.

Exactly.

He's out of line.

I'm going to get a job in Geoje.

Let's stay here together.

Okay.

Sorry. I heard you got plastic surgery,

so I wanted to see.

But you didn't get it yet.

No, not yet.

Call me when you do.

Later.

You were born and raised here,

but it's your first time here, right?

- Yes. - If you look,

you'll see how many people...

work hard to build one ship.

Why don't you get it?

Must I explain multiple times?

I'm sorry.

- I won't do it again. - This isn't a school.

Do you think, "I won't do it again," is enough?

Seriously.

They should teach us properly first.

Seriously.

Hey. Should we quit?

It won't be different elsewhere.

I bet it's all the same.

Shi Eun.

I'm going to Ulsan tomorrow.

I don't have...

a job here anymore...

so I have to work in Ulsan for a while.

I can't come home for about a month.

I'm leaving a debit card.

Use the money here to register...

for a prep class...

in Busan or Seoul or something.

You take care of it.

You can always give up if you fail.

Just give it a shot.

Okay?

Shi Eun, you'll get hired by a bank for sure.

I won't know until they get back to me.

Can't you just take the test for college too?

You got into three. It's a waste.

Enough. I don't want to talk about it.

Why are you giving up without trying?

Hey. She says to stop.

Ye Ji.

You know how hard it is to try and fail.

So why are you talking to me like that?

You have no idea, do you?

Becoming more miserable after trying to be happy.

You were always happy.

Hey. I'm not like you, so even if I'm not happy,

I don't want to be miserable.

Are you not happy?

- Why not? - I'm sure you're happy.

Your only goal in life is to become pretty.

Do you know whom I envy more than anyone?

Someone who's good at what they like.

I wasn't.

I was just sad that you gave up without trying.

Shi Eun, you always acted like you were okay.

Did you think we didn't know?

You were always frowning when we weren't looking.

If you're going to be rude to people who care,

you can live as you wish.

You don't need friends.

Let's go.

Shi Eun.

I wanted to see you before I left for Ulsan...

but out timing didn't work out.

You were right. I am a bad mom.

I didn't want to admit it...

but when I told you to get a job in Geoje...

and told you to look at your sister...

and said you weren't special,

I was making excuses.

The truth is,

I was afraid you'd leave me...

and never come back.

That was why.

What do you want? Get out.

I'm watching a movie.

As you grew up,

and I saw you like something more than me...

Where are you going?

- To see a friend. - What about lunch?

It scared me.

Come home early.

I can't live without you,

but you could live without me.

Keeping you...

tight in my arms...

(Award for Excellence Kim Sang Chul)

It was...

not for you...

but out of my selfishness.

I admit it now.

Go where you want.

Go on. I'll take care of it.

I'm not doing this for you because of your sister.

Make sure to tell her. Go on.

Okay, Mr. Han.

Your grades dropped, right?

Good going.

While the other kids study,

you were being stupid with your dancing.

- Sir. - What?

That's why I quit dancing.

You may go.

- Run. - Did you quit dancing?

That's right.

- Are you... - Don't worry.

It isn't because you dumped me.

I thought you'd at least take a test.

I knew from before,

but you're a bigger loser than I thought,

Seung Chan.

I'm doing this because my friend asked,

but students don't usually come within a month left.

Why do you want to do this? Don't say...

It seems fun, or you think it'll make you happy.

Give me specifics.

To be honest,

I don't know yet.

- I'm sorry. - What if you fail?

Are you sure you won't regret wasting your time?

[Kocowa Ver] KBS2 E15 Just Dance "Uncertain Future" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

- Ye Ji. - Yes?

Which company is this interview with?

Well...

The thing is...

Young Ji.

- Should we... - Should we...

- skip training? - Should we go to school?

- Should we? - Should we?

- Let's go. - Let's go.

Aren't you going to work? Why are you...

Well...

- This isn't... - It's the wrong bus.

- We got on the wrong bus. - Hey, sophomores.

Aren't you going to say hi?

They're seniors. They saved...

our dancesport club at last year's competition.

Bow. Now.

- Hello. - Hi.

- Bye. - Good luck.

Let's go.

- Bye! - Okay.

- Okay. - Bye.

Where are you going?

To dance!

Are you mad? You're a senior!

Yes, I'm crazy!

Sorry, Dad!

The hope that is waving at us...

may be a mirage,

but we must go to find out.

Yes.

Hello, I'm Kim Shi Eun,

I'm studying to become a film major.

(Written Test)

Nice. Give me a bigger smile.

You said you weren't interested when I called.

- I wasn't ready then. - Why not?

Weren't you disappointed when you saw me in person?

Not at all. I like you better in person.

Why? Do you want to get plastic surgery?

I'm not sure.

I think I can later on but not now.

Whereas this job wasn't my dream,

it is a step to achieving a different dream.

Thus, I will work hard at least in order...

to achieve my real dream.

Can you explain that to us just one more time?

We're not very smart...

but you're very talented.

Come with me.

(Myungsung University Dance Department Audition)

(Congratulations on passing Round 2)

I... I... I made it.

I... I passed Round Two!

- I passed! - Let me see!

I passed Round Two at two schools.

When is Round Three?

(Interviews)

Number 29.

Finally,

why do you want to come to the Cinema Department?

I want to become a movie director.

(Gyeonghan University Cinema Department)

Why? Why do you want to direct movies?

I enjoyed watching movies ever since I was young,

and it's a career I respect...

That's the reason most of the students come.

But after jumping into this out of admiration,

most of them end up quitting.

If you want to last,

you need something more than just respect.

You need a specific motivation.

Do you have one?

It looks like your school.

They do look alike.

They're all the same.

Isn't that Shi Eun?

Shi Eun!

Shi Eun! We're here!

- Come down. - What is she waiting for?

Shi Eun.

- How was the interview? - Look at her.

It obviously didn't go well.

Good going.

We went to pick her up for nothing.

I thought...

Why are you crying?

I'm not crying because I bombed the interview.

Then what?

- Why are you crying? - It's your fault, Shi Ra.

Why did you ask Mr. Han to do that?

You bombed the interview. Why are you blaming him?

He even lent us his car.

I know it's my fault.

I'm a stupid idiot,

but I thought I was so smart.

I wasted money and time. What was it all for?

Now, you realize that you're an idiot?

Enough, both of you.

Shi Eun, get your act together now...

and prepare to get a job. Got it?

You need to do your best and work hard.

It's not like you're pretty...

or have a good personality.

Your efforts are all you have to save yourself.

Fine.

Shi Eun! Come out and watch with us.

This movie is really well-made.

She's sleeping.

And she doesn't like movies like this.

Why not? It's fun.

Do you think she'd want to watch right now?

Mom, are you really not disappointed in Shi Eun?

About what?

She used all your money to apply for college...

but she failed.

Not going to college isn't the end of the world.

It's fine. She'll get married to a good guy.

I know she's your child but be objective.

What parent would like her for their son?

What's wrong with her?

She's smart, her personality...

Personality...

Her personality isn't so bad.

Do you mean it?

She's pretty.

You said she wasn't pretty.

I didn't mean it. She's much prettier than you.

She's prettier than most girls out there.

Now that's a bit much.

I'm prettier.

Anyway, what have you been doing?

I'm dating.

- You are? - Yes.

Whom?

I have a lot of guys.

They're lined up.

Kim Shi Eun.

Come in.

(Shinyang Bank Interviews)

When did you find out?

Early this year. After the competition.

Then why didn't you tell me sooner?

Sorry.

Your grandmother asked them...

not to tell you.

I don't know just how much time...

she has left...

but I think she didn't want you to be sad...

during that time.

Hye Jin. In all things,

there's an end and a parting.

Prepare yourself...

and let her go comfortably.

Hye Jin?

You should interview with the last school.

You really won't go?

The final interview for the bank is the same day.

I want to ride too!

- Hey, Young Ji! - Come on!

Let her ride too!

Go faster! Faster!

I'm going to kill you once I catch you!

Will you really not go?

I'm not stupid.

There's a much higher probability of failing.

That's not the only reason.

I just don't know why I must make movies.

I don't know myself why I want to do it.

Ye Ji, give me a ride.

- Can't you ride a bike? - You can't ride a bike?

Seriously.

- Here we go. - Hey!

That's dangerous. Look.

Shi Eun, have you ever been happy?

No. Not really.

Why not?

Just because. Maybe my ideals were too grand?

The life that I wanted was way up there...

but my real life was way too low.

That's how it has always been.

I don't know my reason for living.

I have no goals or anything I want to do.

I just...

feel like life is meaningless.

Hye Jin.

I thought it was super lame to do something...

I don't want to do.

I thought it would be better to die,

that I'd be miserable for the rest of my life.

But I don't think happiness requires...

you to become special...

or achieve something great.

All my mom has are my sister and me,

but she says she's super happy.

I used to think that was a lie...

but now, I think I kind of understand...

what she meant.

So don't you worry either.

Come here!

- Okay. - Get moving.

Come on.

- What? - Come on!

Okay. Be right back.

Get over here.

- I want a ride. - Go!

- Come on. - Let's go.

Why else?

I wanted to hear your voice.

What are you doing?

You're working? You must be busy.

Okay.

Bye.

Let's chat when you have time. Okay.

What is it?

You have your bank interview today, right?

Good luck.

Thanks.

I heard...

you're not interviewing at the other college.

I got a job at a company.

I'll get a regular monthly salary.

If it's about money, don't worry.

Who's leaving early for interviews?

Shi Eun and I are.

Okay. Tell me when it's time.

Is that a company? You may go out and answer it.

- Sir. - What?

May I go?

Why?

I have a college interview and I want to go.

Never mind. It's too late already.

Hey. The bus to Seoul is at 9am.

If you take a cab now, you can catch it.

- Hurry. - Get going.

Hey. Let go. She needs to leave now.

Hye Jin, is something wrong?

Cab fare.

You don't have any cash.

(Final Episode will air shortly.)

Professor Jang, I like this student.

I'm sorry I'm late.

It's fine. Come in.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Let's begin.

Okay.

Now for the last question.

Why do you want to make movies?

Well...

Shall we end here?

(Funeral Home)

The person you have reached is not available.

Why didn't you go to the funeral?

I didn't want to.

It's not like my grandma would know anyway.

What's the point?

What about school? You'll come back, right?

I don't plan to graduate.

Sorry for breaking my promise.

Hye Jin.

Why are you being like this again?

You're upsetting me.

I'm sorry. I'm just sorry for everything.

If you're sorry, just come back to school.

Graduation isn't that far away.

You need to get a job.

You need to get a decent job.

I don't want to,

so I wish...

you'd just give up on me.

What was that?

You saw. My life won't change.

You have no idea...

how many times these things happened.

I'd get better, then slide right back down.

I'd get better, then slide back down.

I'm exhausted from trying now.

I feel like trying to get better...

is just a big waste.

I'll just...

live like this and die.

I think living the way I used to...

is the best for me.

So please,

don't be too upset because of me.

I'll change my number,

delete all the numbers from my contacts,

and move somewhere else.

You won't be able to find me.

I came to tell you that.

You don't need to give me any more chances.

You've given me enough.

Thank you.

You suffered for nothing because of me.

I'm very grateful.

Because I met you,

I joined the dancesport club...

and got to dance.

Those times...

were the happiest moments in my life.

I question whether that really happened.

It felt like a dream.

That's enough for me.

Thank you.

Hye Jin.

My number is 010...

0302-2202.

Crazy easy, right?

I won't change my number.

I promise.

010-0302...

2202! Okay?

Hye Jin, it's Dad.

Are you inside?

Why won't you answer your phone?

Answer me if you're there.

Hye Jin, come with me.

(Park Hye Jin)

(Kumgang Nightclub)

(Kumgang Nightclub)

The bank and the college went out the window.

- What is a waiting list? - It means...

the three people ahead of her need to refuse

in order for her to get in.

Doesn't that mean she may make it?

Kids in that field...

rarely reject the schools, so it's like she failed.

- Look for another job. - I've already begun.

Look at that.

- Is that a dress? - Hey.

- Like this? - No.

Come here. I'll show you.

- This is it. - How do you do that?

So pretty!

Hi, Dad.

I made it.

Yes, the bank.

I'm not lying. It's true.

- Yes. - What did he say?

- Lucky you! - Stop hitting me!

- I know! - You got a job too.

You got a job too.

The number you have dialed is not in service.

This is the last day for waitlisted students.

Mom!

Did you get in?

Not the company.

Yes.

Mom.

Good job.

Don't you worry about a thing.

Okay. I'll...

get you a place in Seoul,

and send you money, although not a lot.

Do what you want.

Just work hard.

Okay?

- Yes. - Good job.

- Let's go somewhere else. - Okay.

It's too far.

It's okay, let's go.

Shi Eun, you look like a Seoul girl now.

I dressed her. She still dresses like a hick.

- I do not. - She'll change in Seoul.

Do we get to see your dance skills at the club?

If we say you're going to a Seoul dance school,

- the girls will flock... - Quiet.

They didn't announce the results yet.

Hey! Look! It's time!

- 5! - 4!

- 3! - 2!

One!

- Let's drink! - Let's drink!

Hey, promise.

We have to get together at least every six months.

No exceptions.

Of course. We have to get together to tease Mr. Lee.

- Yes! - Definitely!

It won't be easy.

Hey. It's only every six months.

That's right.

Anyone who says she can't make it is full of it.

Fine. It's 100 bucks for anyone who doesn't show.

- Don't go. Stop. - I'll take care of it.

What's going on?

Hey, Shi Eun.

- Do you have a boyfriend? - He's so tough.

No.

What? After making that big fuss,

you broke up already?

What does he mean? She didn't have a boyfriend.

No.

Hey, Shi Eun.

Did you even...

like me for real while we were dating?

Seung Chan.

After I broke up with you,

there wasn't a moment when I didn't like you.

Don't give me that garbage.

Then why did you break up with me?

Look. I tried...

to be a gentleman when we broke up,

so I didn't say anything although I knew you had...

something with that jerk.

But let's be real.

When someone says, "I was very happy..."

"while I was with you,"

shouldn't you say,

"Yes, so was I?" That's common courtesy.

You just thanked me.

You didn't like me, did you?

That's not true.

Hey.

You lied so much, that I can't believe you.

Then tell me the truth.

Why did you break up with me?

I didn't lie when I said I liked you.

I promised not to lie to you.

Then why?

Why did you break up with me if you liked me?

What are you trying to do?

Answer me!

Shi Eun.

I never want to see you again.

[Kocowa Ver] KBS2 E16 Just Dance "Life After Graduation" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Congratulations!

Congratulations on going to Seoul!

Thank you for staying until we graduate!

- Let's cut the cake! - Let's go.

- Guys, hold on. - That looks good.

I failed!

I failed. I didn't make it.

I can't go even if I wanted.

Run. Now. Run.

I heard you failed.

It's okay. You can try again next year.

I don't want to.

I'm exhausted.

I don't like staying here,

but it's not so bad either.

That's just my life.

Is it because of me by any chance?

Definitely... Not.

Students, please take your seats.

I repeat.

The graduation ceremony is about to begin.

Students, please take your seats.

(Have a nice day, Designated Driver Service)

(2019 Girls' Commercial Graduation Ceremony)

Hi, Mr. Lee.

I wanted to say this to you in person...

but it was too cringy.

Mr. Lee, thank you very much for...

letting me join dancesport and for letting me try...

although I wasn't good.

After I started working, I realized...

not all adults are like you.

That's why we all made a promise...

to be someone like you to younger people...

when we're out in the real world.

I'm cringing.

It was a total blessing to have met you.

I thought that my life had passed...

its... best... What do you call it?

- Climax. - Climax.

I thought it had already passed,

but after coming in first at the dance competition,

I now have faith that it could come back...

at any time. Thank you.

If I...

hadn't met you and joined dancesport,

I would have turned 20 without knowing that...

small happiness is also happiness nonetheless.

Thank you very much. I'm very grateful.

There are so many things I'm grateful to you for...

but mostly for when you hid the attendance book?

I considered being late all the time,

but I couldn't after a while.

Closing remarks.

Me? You want me close this?

Mr. Lee Kyu Ho.

We're sad that we're graduating,

but don't be too sad.

Let's meet again with a happy heart.

Hi, Mr. Lee.

I wanted to say this to you in person...

Ye Ji!

There was a time when I thought Mr. Lee was fake.

I want to make a fake that seems real.

That's why.

Would you explain what you mean?

Movies are fake, and reality is real.

I think people watch movies to forget reality.

I'm sure there are some who do not,

but I think that's the norm.

Therefore, I think creating a movie...

is selling a fantasy.

That's why I like it so much.

Even if that fantasy is fake...

and nothing but candy-coated reality,

but I believe if people feel...

happiness just for that brief moment,

nothing is more real than that movie.

At least for that moment.

That's why I want to create...

that magical moment.

- Not bad, right? - It's too hard!

Hye Jin! Get home safely!

I didn't see anything!

Isn't that perfect?

You must dance because you want to.

With excitement.

I'll bring Hye Jin back to school somehow.

If you have any concerns, just tell me honestly.

I'm fine.

I just want the kids to not feel like...

they have been discarded and abandoned.

I feel that's my job until I retire as a teacher.

To us, Mr. Lee is a truth...

that we want to believe even if it is a lie.

A good adult. A good teacher.

Although we were not good students,

he said we didn't need any modifiers.

He loved us just as we were.

Our eternal fantasy.

You'll be cold.

Take this.

Don't make it obvious that you're a hick.

What do you mean? People are all the same.

When you get there...

So...

Don't say you can barely go to college.

Okay? Say that your family has plenty of money...

and that they're supporting you well.

Okay?

Okay.

Go.

What? Do you want to say something?

No.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

Why is she crying?

Don't cry.

Seriously...

Hello, I'm Kim Shi Eun.

I'll do my best to make the freshman class...

of Korea National University of Arts shine.

- Okay, let's drink. - Okay.

- 1, 2, 3. - Cheers.

It's nice to meet you.

- Where do you live? - Jeonglan.

Lucky you. You live so close to the school.

I'm from Gyeonggi, so I'm worried.

I envy people who live in Seoul.

The shipbuilding industry is expected to pick up.

After the market decline last year...

We don't have anyone from the suburbs, right?

No, I don't think so.

I was shocked when I went to Geoje.

How could you live in such a hick town?

Parents from places like that...

must go into debt to send their kids to college.

I doubt that.

I'm from there.

What?

I'm from Geoje.

Then do your parents build ships and stuff?

Yes.

Both of them were shipbuilders.

Seoul brats.

Mi Young.

If things go well, maybe you can return to Geoje.

Maybe.

That would be nice.

You're not doing anything lately, right?

I have a job that pays well. Do you want it?

Yes.

What is it?

(Muse Karaoke Assistants Available)

(0302-2202)

It's me.

My father told me everything.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why were you suffering alone all this time?

Seung Chan. I...

I heard he told you to break up with me.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I had no idea.

Look,

may I go see you now?

No.

I'll move on if you tell me to.

Fine.

- Bye. - Where are you?

Hi, Mom.

Are you done with work?

Yes. I'm home.

It's crazy nice.

The people are nice and are good to me.

Just because.

There's something I couldn't tell you.

Mom.

I know that you're happy.

I promise I'll be happy too.

Yes.

Even if I want to deny it,

I can't.

My mom who raised me.

My hometown.

My 20 years.

Goodbye.
