Hey...

Hey...

Are you all right? Hello?

(119)♪
(Emergency number for ambulance in Korea)

Hyung.

I got into an accident.

Where are you?

I should call 119, right?

No, I'll come.

Don't call 119 and just wait.

Hyung...

That guy got hurt.

The guy you said was important.

Who drove?

I drove.

What about Park Yoon?

- I sent him to the hospital.
- What about that bastard?

Did you check the Sheon Hotel?

Since Park Yoon didn't come,

he left...

without coming inside.

Find him, no matter what.

Hyung, I'm sorry.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

No.

I can't do this here.

(Namib - Episode 4: Happiness)

(Psychiatry)

Are you all right?

You've been taking medication for
10 years because you couldn't sleep.

This time, you came so soon.

Are you having a hard time?

Let me ask you one thing.

- Did you know?
- What do you mean?

(Yoo Jin Woo)

Are you mad because he
wrote some apology letter?

How much did you know about this?

What exactly are you talking about?

Him! He is...

While introducing yourself before,

- you said there were three people.
- Yes.

Am I number one on that list?

You're so direct. So direct.

No, no. Hey, hey!

Hey, Gwang Su.

You shouldn't do that!

Gosh, he's so ignorant
when it comes to women.

But...

But... as I told you before,

- I had that kind of problem.
- I see...

What if...

- Yes?
- It's me.

What is CEO Kang Su Hyeon doing these days?

Well, I don't think it's
my place to tell you.

I'm sure she's not just
holed up in her house.

There must be a place
where she goes to work.

Don't you think it's
better to ask her yourself?

The thing is,

I had something to give her as part of the

ownership transition.

There is a place she goes to sometimes.

You know our company's Hong
Jung Hwa sunbaenim, right?

Hong Jung Hwa? Hong...

Oh, yeah, yeah, that
singer with one hit song.

She goes to the restaurant
that Sunbaenim runs.

It's called Flavia.

Oh, really?

(Apology Letter: I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.)

Self-harm?

If he lacks, I can fill it. If
he's rough, I can polish him.

But I can't do anything
about him harming himself.

So, what will you do?

Will you abandon him?

How can I do that? He's my severance pay.

I will put a kid with star
potential on an audition program

and sell him when he gains popularity.

My plan hasn't changed.

Will you be all right
with your personality?

Your mental state.

Experiencing success
once is important to him.

The fear of failure, where everything
will be over if he fails...

That fear is so instilled in his body.

If he experiences success just once,

he'll do very well from that moment on.

Did you decide to help us?

No.

Then, why did you come?

I was cleaning the bathroom in the morning,

and there were blood stains.

What is this?

I can't believe I have
to deal with that now.

What if something bad happens
to him while he's at our house?

Let's debut him quickly and get rid of him.

Well, in any case...

great.

Pandora is reunited once more!

Careful, careful.

- Over there.
- This way?

♫ Once more, stand up again ♫

♫ Hunched-up shoulders don't suit you ♫

♫ You have us, shining brighter
than the stars in the night sky ♫

♫ Don't hesitate and lift your head ♫

♫ Get up again ♫

♫ Smile again ♫

Nice.

♫ Since we've already
walked such a long road ♫

His vocals aren't bad.

But it's not great, either.

He's always done the bare minimum.

It's probably because he
only practiced his way.

And he's breathing pretty high.

Let's look for a way to
get him to breathe deeper.

I found a problem.

His eyes.

Did you know?

(Search the whole nation for a prodigy!)

He's got a habit of looking
elsewhere while singing.

Where is he looking at?

I think he's looking for his mom.

His mom?

Yeah. He received an evaluation after every
performance to say whether he did well or not.

So, what's your strategy?

First, let's start with the basics.

Here are the class notes and
study notes for the midterms.

Do you have study notes for the CSAT?

CSAT? I thought you
just needed good grades.

Whatever it is, show some more effort.

Do you want me to give you the
September evaluation answer sheet?

What?

Speak slowly so he can see your lips.
Do it again.

Do you want me to give you the
September evaluation answer sheet?

Great job. All right...

Don't slack off and do it properly.

- Fighting!
- Fighting.

See you later.

- See you later.
- Yeah, thanks.

By the way, what kind
of person is your mom?

She may be a difficult and scary CEO to us,

but what kind of person is she to you?

Yeah, I looked her up. She
received so many awards.

Did you go to the U.S.?

- The U.S.?
- Yeah, it showed up when I looked her up,

saying she was entering the U.S. market.

Oh, you didn't go?

That...

It's not like that.

A business trip to the U.S.
out of the blue?

What nonsense is that?

I can't even go on a
business trip as I please?

What about the trainees?

If you leave now, what about
the kids in the debut group?

I don't know! I don't know, okay?

Why do you think I'm doing all this?
Can't you see?

Gosh, this is driving me crazy.

Let's go.

Hurry up and come.

After I got hurt and couldn't hear anymore,

she went to the U.S. to try to cure me.

My mom's business trip was
actually for my treatments,

and that was 10 years ago.

Any possibility?

Their cells are past the point of recovery.

Honey, tell him that I saw
and read his dissertation

and came all the way here
to fix my son's hearing.

Once your hearing is gone,

you can't get it back.

The best option is for your
son to wear hearing aids,

so he can adapt to a world without sound.

(North Mt. Laurel Hospital)

I'm sorry to say there is nothing I can do.

(Dr. Foder)

(Total: $9,150)

After spending money for
treatment at different hospitals,

my mom saw something.

(Empowering Deaf Leaders:
Turning Challenges into Triumphs)

A factory with a disabled CEO.

My mom looked at it for some time.

Because I know what she went through,

it's not that I don't understand why
my mom is trying to buy me a factory.

Still, I don't want it.

Then, what is it?

- What?
- What do you want to do?

Gosh, I guess your family is really rich.

To buy you a factory just
because she wants to.

We're not rich. We're probably broke since
we spent so much money on my treatment.

Then, how would she afford a factory?

It looks like your family
has a lot to worry about.

I have a question for you, too.

Where do you go in the evenings?

There's a place called Muse.
It's a nightclub.

Yoo Jin Woo, you!

Why would you go there?

To earn some money.

Since your mom could abandon me, too.

Abandon you?

It's pretty common in our field.

And I'm pretty used to
being abandoned, anyway.

You see, I have a debt of
200 million to my name,

and your mom took over that debt.

But if your mom abandons me, that
debt will come back to me again.

That debt will come back to me again.

That's why I'm preparing in advance.

But how did you end up as my bodyguard?

Oh, that?

Well, about that... So...

In the process of negotiation,
many words were exchanged, and...

Yeah, right, right.

While the CEO and Yoo Jin Woo were
talking, it naturally came up-

Yeah, that's right. So, I received your
mom's business card and discussed many-

(Pandora Entertainment CEO Kang Su Hyeon)

Come here straight after school.

I'm sure it's pretty obvious,

but singing is the most
important thing at an audition.

But, even while singing, what the audience
responds to the most is the high notes.

Singing high notes stably
is about your breathing.

You have to keep your breathing very low.

So, the song you will sing with stable
high notes through ordered breathing is...

An unexpected song choice is
advantageous in an audition program.

A man singing a female song or
a woman singing a male song.

Singing a song with many high notes low,

or singing a song with many low notes high.

We're considering which song to choose
that will best showcase your strengths.

Is it complicated?

Don't think. We'll handle the thinking.

Okay.

All right. Shall we warm up
your throat before we start?

♫ The people passing by over there ♫

- Straighten your back.
- Okay.

If you're warmed up, shall
we start from part A?

- Okay.
- Okay.

If you sing too low,
your pitch will get flat.

Massage your vocal cords gently.

♫ Where are you headed? ♫

♫ Or were you led to this place? ♫

Breathe in. Okay. Breathe out.

Hey, over here.

Yes?

This restaurant's owner
is Hong Jung Hwa, right?

- Yes.
- Where is she right now?

The boss went up to the
second floor for a moment.

The second floor...

What's that sound?

Practicing sound?

What practice?

For an audition.

Oh, audition.

- Hong Jung Hwa?
- Yes.

You want an autograph? So,
do you have a piece of paper?

No.

Who...

You better not sell it anywhere.

This is your training plan until Star Rise.

Thank you.

I heard someone else will
help you with transportation.

I will take care of you
when you're headed here.

Here. I look forward to working with you.

There were no volunteers, I see.

- Pardon?
- You're not a manager.

I guess none of the managers
wanted to take me on.

- Well, you see...
- It's okay.

I'm a nepotism pick,

and I haven't proven myself
with any results yet.

But I'll make sure to
prove myself on Star Rise.

Hey, hey, hey! Supposedly, Hong
Jung Hwa will appear in an audition.

Pardon? Hong Jung Hwa sunbaenim?

Yeah! You know that show that's being
advertised these days. Star-something.

- Star Rise?
- Yeah!

Kang Su Hyeon is taking Hong Jung
Hwa to that audition program!

Why would Jung Hwa appear on that show?

Are you sure it's not another kid?

What other kid?

Who is it?

Who's the kid Kang Su Hyeon
will take to that show?

♫ If you're tired, let's
take a rest momentarily. ♫

Those guys!

Geez...

Aigoo.

Are you okay?

Aigoo!

- What is it?
- Let's go.

- Why?
- I said, let's go!

Hyung.

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

When I got into that accident,

I left something behind.

Is it something of yours?

It's a business card.

Whose business card?

Kang Su Hyeon.

I thought it was something important.

- Why are you worried about that?
- Huh?

If it becomes a problem,
that will be her problem.

Who knows? Maybe the police might
take her in, and she'd be clueless.

What? Does it bother you?

Don't worry about it.

What's the relationship between those two?

Why is he close to that thug?

- You really don't know?
- No.

That's Han Young.

His stage name is Chris,
and his real name is...

Lee Han Young?

I think he's back.

Yeah. You know Chris, who
works under Hyeon Cheol?

Yeah, his real name is Lee Han Young.

His profile should be at the company.
Could you send that to me?

Did you go somewhere last night?

Where would I go?

I just went to bed.

Really?

- What's wrong with your leg?
- Pardon?

- I sprained it.
- How?

While I was walking, I just...

While you were walking?

By chance, are you
hiding something from me?

- Like what?
- Anything.

I need to know as much as I
can about you to help you.

I don't have anything like that.

Ahjussi!

You're here, Ji Young.

Drink up.

My wife, me and even Jeong Hwa are helping

Jin Woo prepare for an audition program.

Yes, I heard as well.

We want to...

help Jin Woo a bit more.

- We ended up finding out.
- Pardon?

About Jin Woo's habit.

You know, too, right?

Jin Woo hates it, too.

How he harms himself.

But he says he feels better
when he harms himself.

He feels better?

He says he needs to cause himself pain

to grow calmer and be able to breathe.

He knows he shouldn't do that.

So he tries to hold himself
back as much as he can,

and when he can't hold back any longer,

he starts doing weird things.

He binges.

He says he feels better
after eating like crazy.

Ahjussi, you have to keep it a secret
from Jin Woo that I told you this, okay?

Okay.

Aren't you preparing for
the audition program?

After CEO Kang Su Hyeon left, the trainees
aren't being properly managed at all.

Do you want to prepare with us?

Pardon?

Really?

Could I do that?

You improve much faster when
you practice with others.

In return, if an emergency arises regarding
Yoo Jin Woo that we don't know about,

please share with us, okay?

Okay.

Yoo Jin Woo.

Hey...

There's nothing like performing for an
audience to make up for lack of experience.

The pitch is important,

but the story in the song
is also very important.

What do you think?

What do you mean?

Does it seem like your story?

(Running)

You have to always sing with sincerity.

Only then will the audience
open their hearts to you.

All right. Close your eyes now.

You'll bring your breathing low.

Slowly.

Low, all the way to the bottom.

♫ Are you sick of it? Are you tired? ♫

♫ Are you running out of breath? ♫

♫ Oh, well, you've got no choice ♫

♫ You've already started it ♫

♫ In the bright sunlight beating down ♫

♫ Even if your mouth grows dry ♫

♫ Oh, well, I can't embarrass
myself by stopping here ♫

♫ One thing I can promise is
that there is definitely an end ♫

♫ When it's all over,
for as long as you want ♫

♫ You can rest for a long time ♫

What about his song for the audition?

I've made up my mind.

There are words that come to
mind when I look at Yoo Jin Woo.

There's a song with
those words as its title.

When Yoo Jin Woo sings those words,

it'll become his life.

♫ In the bright sunlight beating down ♫

♫ Even if your mouth grows dry ♫

♫ Oh, well, I can't embarrass
myself by stopping here ♫

♫ Sometimes, without a reason ♫

♫ You'll feel it's unfair
to the point of crying ♫

♫ For ordinary people who
aren't in first place ♫

♫ Applause is only meant for others ♫

♫ One thing I can promise is
that there is definitely an end ♫

♫ When it's all over,
for as long as you want ♫

♫ You can rest ♫

♫ For a long time ♫

They were so cool.

That was so good.

They're so good.

They're so good.

I enjoyed your song.

Really? Was it okay?

Yeah.

Do you feel it as well?

Of course. It was so cool

and amazing.

I'm hungry.

Endure it.

This is the song you will sing for
Round 1 of the audition program.

Yoon Hee!

CEO, those bastards...

Where is E&D? Who are those bastards?

You know who they are, right, CEO?

You CEOs...

brought them to the company
to get their investment!

CEO.

We need to start the negotiations
for RAID's contract renewal.

Regarding RAID,

increase their overseas
tour so they bring in

more profit before their contract expires.

I'll personally handle their
contract renewal meeting.

For something as important as
contract renewal, I should-

All enterprises that don't net
a profit will be eliminated.

We will depart from former CEO Kang Su
Hyeon's dogmatic decisions and judgments.

We'll activate the company's system

and eliminate any other
enterprises that aren't profitable.

Please review those things.

Hey, Hyeon Cheol-I mean, CEO Jang!

You can't just keep talking
about profit like that-

Who did you say Kang Su Hyeon is
taking to the audition program?

Yoo Jin Woo!

I looked into it a bit.

- Do you know Yoo Jin Woo?
- Yoo Jin Woo?

I mean...

don't get the wrong idea.

I didn't look into it because
I'm interested in Kang Su Hyeon.

Just take that into consideration.

Yoo Jin Woo?

I heard he was here for 10 years without
debuting and had mediocre grades. Is that right?

Y-Yes, that's right.

She took a mediocre kid
who was here for 10 years?

Right? It's weird, right?

That woman shouldn't be
developing any trainee.

What?

I barely managed to put her down, and
she's trying to crawl back out again.

Get going, and drive slowly.

If you drive roughly like last time, I'll-

Did you get hit?

Was it CEO Jang?

Shut up.

Hey-

(Star Rise - Rising Star:
September 2024, Coming Soon)

His mom needs to appear on camera

for him to have a complete story.

(Yoo Jin Woo's Mom)

(Yoo Jin Woo's Mom)

Your name?

Yoo Jin Woo.

Assistant Producer,

try to provoke Yoo Jin Woo.

Where do you live?

I'm living in Seoul right now.

Are you living with your parents?

No.

Then, who are you living with?

I'm currently living with my CEO right now.

Why are you living with your
CEO instead of your parents?

Well...

I am acting as her son's bodyguard-

In any case, there's a reason for it.

Where are your parents?

I don't really know.

You don't stay in touch?

Why not?

It's been a while since I lost touch.

Who's not contacting whom?

Is it you or your parents
who's not staying in touch?

By chance, did your parents
abandon you, Jin Woo?

We separated when I was young.

Why did you separate?

- You don't want to tell me?
- Yes, could we talk about something else?

Then, could you tell me when they left you?

I don't remember exactly when.

It was when I was little...

I lived with them when I
came to the company, but...

How did they leave you?

- Pardon?
- Did they leave you in front of our building

or somewhere else?

Do you remember the last thing they
said to you when they left you?

Yoo Jin Woo!

Yoo Jin Woo.

Yoo Jin Woo!

What are you doing here?

Huh?

Are you all right?

- Yes.
- Okay.

Oh, CEO.

- Did you do well?
- Yes.

I guess you did well.

Great job.

Are we going back right away?

It's only 3 p.m. right now.

Do you want to go back early?

No.

Then, let's get moving.

To where?

It's been a while since
we ate together like this.

We used to eat together before, remember?

Did we?

I don't remember that.

I think it's the first
time since Yoon Hee died.

But you know,

isn't it about time you stop
acting like an ex-trainee?

- What?
- Unnecessary pride, blind loyalty,

narrow social connections.

Those are the characteristics
of a long-time trainee.

That's written all over your face.

Hey, you were a trainee, too.

No, no. I'm still presently a trainee,

since I didn't give up.

Geez.

Why do you work under him
even when he beats you?

I'm not working under him.

I'll soon open up my own business.

Oh, your own business? What business?

A noodle shop? An ice cream store?

What about you?

You're also sticking by CEO Jang.

Watch out.

He's a scary man.

I guess...

I mean, he beats people up like that.

Hey.

Do you think I'm a pushover?

You think you can just
spew nonsense at me, huh?

Sorry. It was just nice to eat
with you again after so long.

Are you mad at me?

I said I'm sorry.

How many more times do I have to apologize?

I'm sorry!

I'm really good at this.

You said you were good at it.

I managed to pull up
every other prize here,

but I can't pull up that
one that I really want.

Why do you obsess over
something so useless?

It's a four-leaf clover.

If I get that, I feel like
things will work out for me.

Geez.

Do you know that it will be
Yoon Hee's memorial soon?

Why do you keep talking about the dead?

Maybe because I came back
to Pandora after so long.

To be honest, our lives changed
a lot after Yoon Hee died.

For you, me, and CEO Jang.

Enough with such nonsense.

If you want a ride from
now on, come out on time.

Come by one more time before
the ownership transfer.

When's the first round stage?

The day after tomorrow.

Your mom is an expert, right?

- Why?
- The song choice.

She's telling me to perform this song.

What song is it?

- Could you come out for a moment?
- Okay.

Tell me what our strategy was.

Focus on singing, produce good high notes,

and look straight at the camera.

What do you think?

- What do you mean?
- Can you do it?

You heard the song you'll perform, right?

- Yes.
- Will you be able to do it?

He won't be able to.

Pardon? Why do you think that way?

What do you think?

What's the biggest difference between
you and the other contestants?

Time.

Correct. You prepared in a rush.

So, we changed our strategy.

We'll scrap the strategy
we have prepared up to now.

Pardon?

(September 8th - Round 1 Stage)

Here. Both of you, put one in your mouth.

You'll breathe in through your
nose and out through your mouth.

How long do we have to do this?

Until you get up on stage.

It's hard to breathe like this.

Take this as well.

Do this whenever you get
the chance without stopping.

I'll head inside.

Jin Woo.

Did you get home okay last night?

Yeah.

You're here for an audition,

but your clothes are quite plain.

Doesn't she have any money or something?

As I thought, this is why
I couldn't recognize you.

- Thug.
- Geez.

Pick me up when it's over, okay?

Thug.

- Yoo Jin Woo.
- Yes.

What do you really want to become?

- Pardon?
- Is it to become successful as a star? Or...

a nightclub employee?

Choose wisely.

It's your life.

Hello, hello.

I'm Producer Park Ji Cheol of Star Rise.

Through an application review,

we picked 100 contestants out of all
the applicants across the nation.

Among them, 50 contestants made
it through the preliminaries.

You all are those contestants.

Please read the consent form
you received and sign it.

If you break the rules,
you will be eliminated.

And you have to maintain confidentiality.

(Consent Form for the Use
of Personal Information)

You'll trust me only,

and I'll trust you only.

Choose wisely.

It's your life.

So, we changed our strategy.

We'll scrap the strategy
we have prepared up to now.

Pardon? Then, what do you want me to do?

Do the opposite.

High notes? Don't do them.

Sing the lowest possible notes you can.

Your eyes? Don't look straight ahead,
but sing looking at the ground.

As you've always done.

Lastly,

tell your story.

Sing it as if it's really about your life.

The front here. We haven't checked it yet.

Check the lights.

Please lift the lights slowly now.
Lift the bar, please.

We'll move to the stage now.

Okay.

Jin Woo, come.

Okay.

You're ready, right?

Don't blame me even if things end badly.

I don't blame others.

Yoo Jin Woo, listen up.

Right now, you won't hear me even
if I told you to love yourself.

No. You probably can't believe it, either.

You probably don't love or
believe in yourself right now.

So...

trust me.

I don't do anything that's not profitable.

Also, I make sure whatever
I start ends in a success.

And I chose you.

Trust me.

Trust me, and go up on stage.

Okay?

(Star Rise Contestant Waiting Room 1)

It's Yoo Jin Woo's turn now.
Aren't you going to watch?

No, I won't watch.

(I'm happy)

(I'm happy)

Let's change the lyrics of the intro.

- Why?
- Just do as I say.

You said to sing as if
it was really my story.

I don't think I can.

Exactly.

In your life,

you're the happiest when you sing.

♫ I'm happy ♫

♫ I really don't want to
say these words to you ♫

♫ However, now, there's nothing
I can do about it anymore ♫

♫ I prayed that I will no longer
love that person anymore ♫

♫ However, now, it's too late ♫

♫ I remember how brightly
you used to smile ♫

♫ Next time, don't ever
meet someone like me ♫

♫ Please be happy ♫

♫ You have to meet someone
good and love again ♫

♫ And beyond your memories ♫

♫ You have to forget me ♫

♫ I remember how brightly
you used to smile ♫

♫ Next time, don't ever
meet someone like me ♫

♫ Please be happy ♫

♫ I remember how brightly you
used to smile to strengthen me ♫

♫ And next time, don't
ever meet someone like me ♫

♫ Please... ♫

(Please be happy)

♫ Even still, smile again ♫

♫ Once more, stand up again ♫

♫ Hunched-up shoulders don't suit you ♫

♫ You have us, shining brighter
than the stars in the night sky ♫

(Namib)

Everyone around me becomes
unhappy whenever I sing.

Not anymore.

- Did you come to see me?
- Of course.

You don't have your hopes up about being
successful on the audition program, right?

What do you think it means to
be curious about something?

I'll never come back here again.

That woman will abandon you anyway.

- What do you mean?
- Don't you remember?

We've received a video tip-off.

To stop this from being released, we
must send them the original footage.

Do you think Jin Woo
is really on your side?
