What on earth is going on?

Am I seeing things now?

(Episode 3, One Fine Spring Day)

Who are you?

What are you doing?

What?

Look. Emily from LA.

What on earth are you doing?

Have you changed your theme from a show-off to a country loser?

Do you know what we went through because you left like that?

What is this puffy ramyeon hair?

That's crazy swag.

This time, it was clearly your fault.

We can't cover you.

Let's stop. What if she runs away again?

Stay out of it.

I can see that they gave their colleague a hard time.

How can we take it easy when she just won't let us?

She thinks the world goes around her.

Doesn't it upset you?

We didn't bully her.

It was she who ignored us.

Calm down.

Do you want to be misunderstood again?

No. Not me.

The instructor's looking for us.

Hurry.

Anyway, Damily, you...

if you try to have it your way again, you're out.

Although you'll be leaving on your own again soon.

What is going on?

Who's Damily?

He's waiting for me.

I have to meet him.

You can't enter without approval.

And I couldn't confirm your appointment with him.

Who sent her here?

I lived here for three months.

Whose approval do I need?

My stuff is still there.

Were you a janitor here?

No, I wasn't. I was...

Grandma.

Grandma, what are you doing here?

I was worried about you.

Grandma?

Do I know you?

Ms. O, what are you pulling?

Are you still sullen?

Mal Soon?

Grandma, I'm busy. I can't talk to you right now.

Let's talk at home later.

Everyone was worried and waited for you so much.

Don't think about going anywhere else. Wait for me at home.

Okay?

Girl. No...

Ms. O, you look awesome.

Did you finally decide to open your wallet, Ms. Cheap?

We will now begin the audition.

Wait.

Answer your phone.

Daniel? Is that Daniel?

Where are they going?

Thank you.

- Let me see your dance. - Sure.

You arranged the song yourself?

Let's see.

(UNIS Entertainment 18th Open Audition)

And one more thing.

I won't ask for anything else.

BOGO.

What?

In the audition, there will be a girl named Choi Ha Na.

Accept her as a trainee.

Then I'll sign the contract without a word.

- What? - As you've seen,

there are enemies everywhere.

I need an insurance.

Are you in or not?

Even if I let her pass,

she won't last long without any skills.

(Specialized in SAT)

You don't have enough experience for your age.

Sorry.

(Academy, SAT Preparation)

Min Seok?

My gosh. It is you.

What?

Mi Jin, it's you.

Long time no see. Are you back from the States?

It's been a while.

I heard you barely keep in touch with my brother.

Well, life's keeping me busy.

Anyway, good to see you again.

And you look like you're doing great.

But you don't.

Really?

I have a meeting soon. I can't talk to you right now.

- Okay. - One second.

Call me anytime.

I couldn't have done it without you. I owe you big time.

See you soon.

Yes. Bye.

(VPLUS, CEO Joo Mi Jin)

Check this out.

Isn't this a good picture?

Why are you looking at me?

Nice arrangement. She's fresh.

Her singing isn't so bad.

Her arrangement skills are impressive.

Still, she's not the girl group material we're looking for.

You know she's completely offbeat?

How can someone's dance be so lame?

What do you think?

Three to one.

It's a pass.

For today, I mean.

What?

Pass?

- Pass? - Three to one?

Ha Na, you made it on your own.

Wait.

Dad.

Sweetie, where have you been?

Here and there.

What did you dress up for?

Well, this and that.

What?

On a day like this,

I just want to gulp down Mother's handmade sujebi

and go straight to bed.

No way.

I ran here as fast as I could for her tteokbokki too.

When she kept telling you to eat,

you always complained.

Besides, have you forgotten that she's not home?

Why do you think I ran here?

She's probably back.

What?

Really?

- Mother. - Grandma.

Are you sure you met Grandma?

Yes.

I told her to go home repeatedly.

- I shouldn't have let her go like that. - You shouldn't have let her go like that.

Do you want me to make you ramyeon? You said you were hungry.

I don't feel like eating.

I wasn't hungry for food. I was hungry for Ms. O's nagging.

Three days feel like three years.

How can she be so coldhearted?

Grandma seemed to be doing well.

Her style has changed.

Has she forgotten about us already?

She lost her memories?

No way.

She uses dialect. She's talking all weird.

What's wrong with her? Split personality?

You seem to have many questions, but leave that to the past.

Consider it a temporary memory loss.

How are we going to practice when she knows nothing?

That brat. She's just unbelievable.

We don't have much time left.

Is it just me or are you all good to see her again?

What is wrong with their teamwork?

They're just flustered.

They were worried about her so much.

They had great teamwork. They'll pick up again soon.

She is so hard-to-like.

Worry, my butt.

They were all dying to come after me.

Why so serious?

A wench fight is normal between colleagues.

What?

What fight?

You can't debut without her anyway.

Either support her, abandon her, or discard her.

The choice is up to you.

Stop putting on a show.

What?

I know you're putting on a show to hide your disgusting past.

Aren't you the disgusting ones?

Why did you have to push her until she ran away?

What?

This is not even ridiculous.

Is this how you want to play?

I never said how I wanted to play.

What are you saying?

If you don't quit it, I'm going to tell them about your secret.

Girls, listen.

I'm not cheap enough to steal your turf.

We're in this together anyway.

So refrain from badmouthing, and let's play fair.

Fair play, okay?

Now, it's time for a round.

What was that? "Girls?"

"Colleagues?"

She's completely lost it.

You, the LA brat.

Come here.

Who is he to boss me around?

You think losing your memories would make everything okay?

Just wait for it.

You...

A wench fight? My goodness.

What is wrong with that guy?

There are enemies everywhere.

(Sauna)

Was Ms. O here today?

No, not today.

(Every Joint Oriental Clinic)

Was Ms. O here today?

Not yet.

How deeply were you heartbroken?

That you completely went off the grid?

How can someone change just like that?

Who?

Who else? Emily.

The way she talks, acts, and thinks.

It's like her MBTI changed from an extreme introvert to an extrovert.

Unless she was struck by lightning.

Are you sure that's Emily?

You think it's about her look?

Emily's...

voice is her ID.

It's not something she can hide.

Right.

No one can fool your ears.

Then what's gotten into her?

Maybe she's possessed or something?

By a ghost?

What are you saying?

That little...

Are you sure that's really Emily?

Please.

(Congratulations)

(AD, Stock Investment Group)

Seriously.

(UNIS Audition Group Chat)

Yes.

(If you haven't heard from them yet, it means you didn't pass.)

Even if I didn't make it, it doesn't mean I lost my chance.

No.

Just because you failed, you didn't lose your chance.

It means someone else seized it.

Every time a child messes up the SAT,

it's 8 months in prison and a 4,000 dollar fine for parents.

I'm lucky that you're not repeating it for three times.

Sign up at the academy again.

- I haven't given up yet. - What?

It was my first audition, but I wasn't nervous nor did my voice crack.

I can do better next time.

Is that guaranteed?

If you study, your grade will prove it.

But you slipped in your first audition.

Who's going to approve and guarantee your skills and talent?

My goodness.

How can she be so sharp?

Still,

you should comfort me first if I had a long day today.

Every time I messed up my exam,

Grandma asked me if I wanted to eat anything.

She never put salt on my wound.

You're not a kid.

Can't you tell if I'm worried about you or trying to hurt you?

What about you?

You can't even tell if your words hurt me or comfort me.

What kind of grown-up is that?

Choi Ha Na.

I'm not going to study.

I'm never going to study.

I'm going to prove you wrong.

Ha Na.

Whatever. You're the same.

So cheap.

You're going to put Choi Ha Na that newbie...

together with Emily when she's not herself?

That doesn't make any sense.

Lower your voice.

This is work.

Because you're talking nonsense.

Apparently, Choi Ha Na is her savior.

She saved Emily when she lost her memories and fainted.

It's giving me a headache too. Just let it slide.

Still, if you mix a newbie with girls who are ready to debut,

they'll revolt.

They were also part of the reason.

Can't you see the issue between them and Emily?

That's...

We have to fix their teamwork.

And I'm going to watch...

if they're outcasting her or bullying her.

Did she get a call that she made it?

What if she missed it?

What are you doing here?

Soju, please.

Okay.

Let's forget everything...

and be honest with me.

Did you have a crush on me?

If not, there's no other reason.

Are you challenging me?

You and me, we had a great time in the States.

Was it all lies?

What do you want me to do?

Sorry that I can't speak English.

I have no idea what you're saying.

You seriously didn't get anything I said?

Don't bother sounding me out.

If I could speak English, do you think I'd be here right now?

I'd be living in style speaking English.

Right. Sorry.

The world isn't that easy.

If you sweat your effort,

the world demands you to sweat blood.

Pull yourself together.

You're full of surprises.

What do you mean?

I've never seen anyone crazier than I am before.

What are you saying?

He's good-looking...

like a walking artwork.

I bet girls lined up for him.

Stop peeping at my hot face...

and sign here.

(Popular Culture Trainee Standard Contract)

You know what a contract means to a singer, right?

From now on, if you decide to run away, you'll have to run away to me,

and if you want to die,

you'll have to get my approval.

Do you understand?

That sounds brutal.

Forget the dialect.

Can you fix the way you talk at least? You sound like a granny.

What? Are you telling me to be born again?

I did what you said. No taking back.

The same goes for you.

No.

You've been drinking with no food.

Why are you skipping food when I'm the one who's going to debut?

You'll get sick if you drink like that.

Here. Eat this.

Eat it. Now.

Eat.

Get back here.

Is this for people or cattle?

Is this all?

You barely ate half of it before.

Did you become gluttonous too?

Let's cheer up today.

If you expect me to cheer up after eating only greens,

it's like telling me to win while slacking off.

At this age, everything you eat helps you get tall, not fat.

You don't know anything.

Blah blah blah.

Couldn't you add more chicken?

You glutton.

I knew it.

What are you doing?

I see that you've become loose.

Sorry.

No need to be sorry. It's your body.

It wouldn't have been this strict even during the war.

Starve...

for what glory?

It's not just about your weight, but self-control, you know?

Don't expect to stand before the public when you can't even control your body.

Run for one more hour.

Kids these days are so dogged.

Stretch.

All right. Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Point.

Poke. Good.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven.

Point.

Five, six, seven, eight.

You brat.

Do it.

Now?

It's your body...

that remembers the choreography, not your brain.

Do it.

Don't you look at me like that.

Here.

Stand here.

My head.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Okay.

Point. One, two.

What's she doing?

- What is that? - Focus.

Focus.

- Yes. - Yes.

Hello?

You think it's funny?

Daniel?

Look up.

Why...

Tell everyone to leave except you and Emily.

Can't you see that everyone's laughing at her?

Teach her 1-on-1 until she picks up.

If Emily doesn't improve, it's all your fault.

But Daniel...

So much stress!

(Kim Ae Sim) (VIP DINNERSHOW)

The moment you stood next to me

I loved the look in your eyes

Yesterday I cried

Today because of you

Tomorrow I will be happy

It's not about your face or your look

I needed your tender love

Thank you.

Hi.

Go ahead.

How's everything going?

I've calmed reporters down from making a fuss.

Of course. It's my chance to run away.

I have to make it happen.

- Jun Hyuk. - This will be the last time.

Keep your promise.

Aunt Ae Sim.

Fine. Laugh all you want.

Only those who lived long enough understand this happiness.

- Hello. - Hello.

I can't take it anymore.

Follow me.

Is that an onion root or a broccoli on her head?

I can't believe you had to deal with it.

Don't even get me started.

Not just my eyes,

but it was an insult to my career too.

My gosh.

Manager.

Yes, ma'am.

Where did the onion root go?

Are you sure she's the same person?

This is unbelievable.

You look great.

While we're at it, let me ask you one more favor.

Instead of Emily,

call me Du Ri.

O Du Ri.

What do you think? Doesn't she look like someone else?

Well, it's better.

That's right.

I told her already.

Instead of Emily,

call me Du Ri from now on.

O Du Ri.

So what if it's a midsummer night's dream or a curse?

I feel so alive.

(Push)

Are you going somewhere?

Any news about her yet?

No.

But she's well.

You said no news from her yet.

My wife and Ha Na saw her.

They said she looked even better.

What?

When she's not answering my calls?

How can a granny be well after leaving home?

I should've stopped her that day.

Ji Sook is shrewd, but she's only book-smart.

Why is it so hard for her to understand her mom?

She worries about Mother a lot too.

Although she never expresses it.

It wasn't that bad before.

Something must've happened.

Ji Sook always kept her mouth shut...

if she didn't like something ever since she was young.

When bullies pulled her hair or ripped her clothes.

Or when she was the only one who couldn't afford to go on a school trip to Jeju.

She should've said it.

If she was born a man, she could've become a general.

She obviously has an issue with her mom.

I have no idea what that is though.

Do you want me to look into it?

Have you found a job yet?

May I say one more thing before I begin?

This is my first official schedule...

after I've become an executive.

Your roles are most important...

to win a contract from Junha Construction.

I know it wasn't easy...

because of some people who treat a partner company...

like their subcontractor.

I will not let that happen at least while I'm here.

She was talking about us, right?

She wasn't just talking about us. She was aiming at us.

Kang Young Eun.

She and Director Kang went to the same university,

and they're from the same clan.

She's been in the team longer than you at least.

She won't be an easy game.

(Mal Soon Theater)

(Jongno Palseo Beef Head Meat and Rice Soup)

(30 years ago)

People who lost their general in the war...

are full of spite.

Come here.

She's the new cook.

But she's so young.

She looks like she can't even make a fire. How is she going to cook?

I'll make her leave on her own.

Yes. It's perfect.

You can fool everyone, but you can't fool yourself.

If you stay proud of yourself, you will one day see the path.

Here you are.

- Honey. - No.

Sit down and pour me a drink, will you?

No.

My goodness.

Thank you.

No need to thank me. Weren't you scared?

To win the war,

you must turn people to your side first.

I may not be as good as Director Kang.

I look forward to working with you, Ms. Kang.

Likewise.

The spring breeze is flying

The scarlet skirt

I bite my otgoreum as always

On the way to the shrine where swallows fly

When the flower blooms I smile along

Bye.

When the flower withers I cry too

We took a frugal oath

On one fine spring day

When stars are up we smile together

When stars are gone we cry

We made a silly promise

On one fine spring day

How about something exciting?

Count me in.

A gentleman in a suit

Is getting beaten in front of a restaurant

What is he getting beaten

There is only one reason He has no money

He entered like a decent man

Then he didn't know what to do because he had no money

He tried to sneak out through the back door

And he's getting beaten for that

Hahaha that's funny

Hohoho that's funny

Hihihi that's funny

Hehehe that's funny

Haho hihe that's funny

If he had no money

He should've had bindaetteok at home

How dare a thug with no money

Go to a restaurant

How dare he go to a hostess bar

I see that you know how to play the guitar.

Well, I know how to play a little.

Really?

Thank you. Thank you so much.

What?

Nothing.

Apologize for what you said the other day.

I'm in a good mood today.

I might accept your apology.

What are you saying?

Come down for dinner.

This is insane.

This can't be true!

Good job, Choi Ha Na. I'm so proud of you.

Girls.

Everybody, attention.

What brings you here at this hour?

Big bad news.

The new trainee is Emily's best friend.

- What? - What was that?

She's completely new to this,

but that was the condition Emily demanded.

No. That is just wrong.

This is so upsetting.

I only had one.

Seriously.

What is this song?

You can't sing old songs forever.

Consider it a lesson and sing this.

(K-POP Playlist)

All of them?

Now that Ha Na's coming, I must do better.

Tell me who's next

Game is over here I come

What...

What is wrong with this?

Do I have a fever?

Why is it beating fast?

Mom.

I'll be living in the dorm from today.

I became a trainee at UNIS Entertainment.

Although it's only temporary.

What?

What are you saying?

You're more than welcome to check if it's true.

Choi Ha Na.

I'll take this chance...

to see whether I'm fit for this...

or I should stick to studying.

Ha Na.

Isn't UNIS the one with many girl groups?

What?

- Wait. - Is this your first day?

What are you doing here?

Let's go.

Are you that happy?

Of course.

I could even die today.

Watch your mouth.

Did your parents approve?

I'm not sure if they approved,

but I still told them.

Good job.

Try your best,

and if you're not fit for this, leave with no regrets.

Okay?

You.

Why are you so nice to me?

Because...

our grandmothers are friends.

I don't need your pity.

I don't know about the position you take here,

but I'm going to impress them with what I have.

Besides,

it's no time for you to look after anyone.

Emily has her maid here now?

Is it just me who thinks the company's going crazy?

I know it's only temporary,

but can you believe we have to practice with her?

She gets to practice with a debut group?

Should we just reveal...

that Emily's a junkie?

(To Choi Min Seok)

(Final Notice)

(Second Notice)

You already have a lot of loans,

and your income is low.

Are you saying I can't extend the due date?

The car's been upgraded since this year.

You're the first beneficiary.

You should try it out with your family,

Director Ban.

Sure. Thanks.

I'll get going.

Yes, Aunt.

He kept reassuring me not to tell you.

He didn't even tell me the date of his surgery.

How is he?

When the doctors checked,

it had already spread in all his organs.

He has three months at max.

He'll soon be leaving in vain.

It would've been nice if you kept in touch when he was sound and healthy.

Do you know how much your dad missed you?

But then you're not to blame.

It's all your mom's fault.

No matter how much she hated him, he's still your father.

How could she hide him from you for all these years?

How dare she break ties between father and daughter?

How spiteful.

- Slippers. - Yes.

Awesome.

I still can't believe it.

No need to check.

I've already checked everything.

- Our room is here. - What?

Is this our room?

This is really pretty. Is this my bed?

Yes.

Awesome.

- Do you like it? - Yes, it's so comfy.

Right.

What's between you and Daniel?

What do you mean?

An employer and an employee.

No.

There seems to be something more to it.

What are you saying? I'm not interested in young men.

What?

Don't get ahead.

Whatever.

Is your grandma back yet?

No.

It's taking longer than expected this time.

Aren't you worried about her?

You said you know my grandma, right?

She's strong enough to beat a ghost.

No one's more careful or agile or faster than her.

She's no ordinary granny.

Is that why you're so laid back?

You don't even try to find her?

You wouldn't do that even to a dog.

Why are you so worked up?

You always get so worked up at a strange point.

My grandma is well. You don't need to worry.

I bet.

Where are you going? It's past curfew.

Why is she all angry?

My goodness.

What was that? Strong?

No ordinary?

A heart can still be broken no matter how strong they are.

They can be hurt too.

How can they be so heartless?

A young and pretty lady like you...

shouldn't drink alone.

What if other guys eye on you?

Only drink what I give you.

I feel crappy enough.

Keep that cheesy smile out of my sight.

What a nice world we live in.

Back in the day, you would've been locked up in the coffin already,

yet here you are walking around.

You're so sly and cunning.

Cheeky girls are appealing these days.

Very nice.

Right.

- Cheeky? - Yes.

Watch your darn mouth before you get beaten up.

Do you even have any muscles in your body other than the sphincter?

Yet you consider yourself a man?

You're cute.

You're so adorable. I can't help it.

Let me touch you. Come here.

Pervert.

Is this what you like?

Go easy on me.

You pervert.

Just wait until the police get here.

O Du Ri?

What are you looking at?

Call 911 and tell the police to...

My goodness. That annoying little...

Did she just beat someone?

I want to touch the other arm, too.

What are you doing? Call the police.

Wait. What are you doing?

You'll break my arm. Be careful.

Do you even have any muscles in your body other than the sphincter?

"The sphincter."

I usually stick to rules,

but last night, I had so much on my mind.

What's there to worry about?

If you drink all night and cause trouble,

you won't get to debut,

and we'll all go down together.

Right?

Sorry.

I promise never to do that...

again.

I don't care whether you drink or pick a fight...

or punch anyone.

Please. Will you please...

hold it back until you debut?

You may leave.

Is that all?

- Am I really good to go? - I saw you fighting yesterday.

I should be careful.

Hello?

Okay.

- Follow me. - What?

- Chairwoman Kim. Hello. - Hi.

Girls. Everybody, stand up.

Come forward. Keep moving.

Say hello to the chairwoman.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hi.

- You must be trainees. - Yes.

- Are you all doing your best? - Yes.

I thought a president was here.

Who on earth is here?

Come here.

Kim Ae Sim.

It was you?

(Who Is She!)

Does that make you happy?

Decided to be rude?

- Are you crazy? - How did you know?

You!

You're a total junkie.

Did it really belong to her?

Emily, that girl. She's not just getting on my nerves. She's too much to handle.

It'll be even better if she leaves on her own.

And she won't make the debut.

Hello?

Why do you have her phone...

Don't ask me anything for now.

What's happening in Jongno...

while I'm gone?

What if Ji Sook recognizes me?

Mother.

Mom.
