Dream High (Deurim Hai) (2011) s01e01 Episode Script
Episode 1
The whole nations attention is turned to Staples Center in the United States.
It is to watch this historical moment Korean singer K be rewarded the Grammys Award.
One minute to start the show.
Ready.
Stand by.
The 60th Grammy Awards is currently taking place right now, and it is predicted by many that Singer K will receive this years award.
Year 2018 Singer Ks second album Dream High, has received love from many fans with 100 million copies of the album being sold.
I heard this is a picture of K when he was a student, is that correct? Yes, this was taken when K was our student, so I think this is about 8 years ago.
It's not an understatement to say that you are the one who made K.
Did you know it the moment you saw him? That this kid will become a world star so great to even be awarded the Grammy Award? I did predict that but I'm not the one who made K.
Youre just being modest.
During an interview with the CNN, K said you were his break shot.
You all know what a break shot is, right? The first shot to disperse the balls gathered together is called the break shot.
Yes, the game begins with that shot.
But whats really amazing about that breakshot is note: In Chinese characters Sam means forest, and Dong means move Sam of Forest and Dong to move, Im Song Sam Dong, the guy who moves the forest.
I will try my best today.
Even if you hit the balls at the same angle and with the same amount of power, the balls will always disperse differently.
How the balls will meet and where they will go I couldnt predict it either.
The moment the breakshot is made, the match is out of my hands and becomes the war of the balls.
Dream High Episode 1 [Dream with Me - Jo Sumi Concert.]
Oh my gosh, even Hye Mis name is on the poster.
Thats so cool.
She was even accepted to the Juilliard Pre-College Division, no wonder her name is there.

What doesnt she have? Who is she? She was taking a whole lot of pictures inside.
Who? Ah.
.
Hye Mi per? Hye Mi per? She always tags around Hye Mi, like shes Hye Mis slipper.
So Hye Mi per in short.
Shes so weird.
She copied Hye Mi from head to toe.
- Whats her name? - Name? I dont know.
Yoon Baek Hee.
Uh? Her name is not Hye Mi per, its Yoon Baek Hee.
Hye Mi Jong Mi, you seem to always use that scrunchie I gave you.
I was actually thinking of throwing that away.
But you using it like its something precious makes me feel kind of bad.
- Lets go, Baek Hee.
- Okay.
There is one thing Hye Mi doesnt have.
Manners.
Im okay with being called Hye Mi per.
I actually like it.
I dont.
Really? Then I dont like it too.
This one is out of focus Im cut off in this one I like this picture.
300 won? What the she looked rich too.

Go Hye Mi? Does she study vocal or something? Let me see.
Student ID - Go Hye Mi Han Kang Middle School Those maggots.
They are attracted to shit, arent they? - Shit? Maggots? - Maggots.
Shitty school.
Why is Kirin Art School a shitty school? Its the hardest art school to get in.
Pretty much all the singers these days are from that school Well they are just performers without much talent.
Theyre just gangsters, punks, and maggots.
Im going ahead.
Okay About this wallet - Im going to return it to its owner.
- Huh? - Aah!! Oppa! - One word about your new drama, please.
What genre is it? Is it action? Melodrama? - Please look over here! - Did work well with the other actors? - How do you think the ratings will come out? - Over here as well, please.

I came back on the same flight as you.
Really? You should have told me.
Ah, were you waiting for me? Kirin Art School graduate Kim Hyun Joong met his former teacher Director Jung Ha Myung at the airport and enacted a heartwarming scene.
Director Jung Ha Myung is known for his insight Hes finally here.
[Right Now Loan Company.]
The daughter of a person ruined by debts from a loan company flyering loan company flyers Quite funny.
In this world, there's a wonderful law called joint and several liability.
If your father Go Byung Jik cannot repay his debt, you, his daughter will repay the debt whether with money or body.
You shouldt do that.
You have to fulfill your duties as a daughter.
No.
- Im not going with you.
- Do you want to quietly come with me, or embarrass the hell out of yourself then come with me? I said Im not going! Are you trying to play around with me? Aish.
If you want to play, I will have to play along.
What is this? Is this all you can do? This isnt fun at all.
Hey.
Why dont you play with me instead? What the hell are you doing? What I always do.
Get him! My picture! Move, move move! Stop! You! Oh my gosh, whats going on? - Ouch, ouch.

Arent you supposed to thank me first? I just saved you right now.
I saved you right now as well.
Why dont we just call it even? Just give me back my picture.
Lets just stop it there.
You pervert.
What? That picture wasnt taken to please the eyes of a pervert like you.
Please my eyes? I understand, as a guy, you must have wanted that picture.
Even I think that picture came out well.
Youre talking some crap.
Hey! Hey! Where are you doing, you pervert?! Give me back my picture! Hey! [Congratulations.]
[2008 Record Number of 42 Students Make Singer Debut.]
[6 Students Accepted To Berkeley College of Music.]
News! News! Breaking news! Director Jung Ha Myung returns to Kirin Art School! Really? The Director is back? We can finally meet that ghost? Ghost? His nickname is the Ghost? Thats right.
Like a ghost, he has some spiritual power.
Therefore, Ghost Jung.
Hello.
Director! Its been so long! Its been three years? Ah, has it already been that much? Is the China branch school development going well? It turned out to be more complicated than I expected.
Theres a lot of things we need to get approval for.
I see, then I guess you need to return very soon.
Do I need to? Of course not, I didnt mean it that way.
Ah, lets not just stand here and talk somewhere else.
Theres a reception prepared to congratulate your return to Kirin Art School.
- Lets go.
- No.
I want to see the students first.
Over 40 students made a debut under a major label.
Moreover, major labels from the US and Japan are inquiring about our students as well.
We can now say that Kirin Art Schools system of developing students into stars is finally settled.
Thorough training, the best teachers, and sponsors from major company We have reached a level no other schools have.
Ah, theyre going to be making their debut in three weeks.
Can you take off your elbow pad? The public wants to see highly technical performances these days.
Its not a big injury.
Such injuries can happen in school.
Cancel their practice immediately.
Director, those kids will be making their debut in three weeks.
Schedule an appointment with the hospital and get back to me about it by 9 tomorrow.
I understand your concern for the students, but the recording and publicity schedules are too complex [College Preparatory Class.]
I see that a College Preparatory Class has formed while I was gone.
This is where students with low end-of-the-month assessment scores come.
This class was formed for students that have no potential in becoming a singer.
We cant ruin their lives just because they cant become a singer.
But why arent there any students here? Ah, usually if a student ends up in the College Preparatory class, they drop out.
After all, there's a limit to the college preparation an art school can provide.
Are the freshman audition preparations going well? Why are you asking about the audition? Are you planning to attend it as a judge? Can I not? No, of of course you can.
The Director himself? Hes going to participate as a judge panel for the freshman audition? Why is he suddenly saying that hell judge? Hes doing it because he cant trust the Art Department Chair, right? - Bingo! - Bingo! Wow, I cant wait for the audition now.
Who will the Director pick? Even in the mountain, and even in the sea Nobody can be happy like this Lalalala Even if you fly on the clouds It cant be great at this, Ulalala Everything depends on your attitude What exactly is a happy life? We all say that life is hard Hey! But life isnt fun, If everythings easy, Bingo! Hey! Living a holy and noble life Without any regrets and with a pure heart Hey! The moment my life ends Gosh, this girl is driving me crazy.
You're back, Jin Kuk? You hooked up with her? Its not like that.
Just give back her picture.
Picture? Ah this? - Give it back.
- I cant just give it back for free.
How was my dance right now? Tell me and Ill give it back.
I said give it back.
Tell me and Ill really give it back to you.
- Your dance was really - Really? Vulgar.
I just told you.
Now give me back my picture.
Hey.
You say it again.
Did you just say vulgar? Hey! You want me to say it again? Your dance moves were vulgar.
Its cheap and third-rate.
You pickpocket, you gangster.
You little.
You really dont know what a gangster is, do you? - This is a bully.
- Dont.
And this is a gangster This is what a real gangster does.
Dont, shes going to bring us bad luck.
We dont even have that many days left until the Kirin Art School audition.
Kirin Art School? Ah, you were doing all this to go to that shitty school? What? Shitty school? You little Shut up and leave.
That brat! Why did you save a girl like her? - Do you know her? - No, its not like that.
Put those on, I can just ride on my bike.
It smells.
It doesnt look cool either.
That girl is too violent.
Argh, shes driving me crazy.
Boss, do you think that kid would understand since we told her like that? I told you to go easy on her.
Relax your eyes.
Dad! Dad! Where are you? Hye Sung! Hye Sung! Hye Sung! Are you okay? Of course I am.
What did those guys do? They didn't hit you, did they? No, they told me to call them back as soon as you get here.
They said theyll give me more bread if I do.
[We will forever be of help to you.]
[Loan Heaven Arrear Hell Boss Ma Du Shik - Forever Service Loan.]
Dont answer it, its the loan sharks.
Hello.
Dad? Yeah, were fine.
Where are you, Dad? Ah, never mind.
You said we shouldnt ask where you are.
Youre going out of the country? Where? Out of the country what? Why suddenly? Where are you going? I cant just run away like this every day.
I dont see what I can do in Korea.
Im going to go to your aunt in Canada and ask her to help me out.
Then what about us? Where are we going to live when this house is foreclosed and auctioned off? Write down a number.
- A number? - Just stay for a month No, two months at the longest with this person.
This person will definitely take care of you.
After you went out of business, everyone that you said would help us out just ran away.
You want us to go through this again? No, this person wouldnt be able to do that.
Who is it? Tell me the number.
Is it someone I know? You remember him, right? - Its Kang Oh Hyuk.
- Kang-Oh-Hyuk Kang Oh Hyuk?! You really had no social life, did you? Was he the only one you could think of? You want me to go to that guy? - Hye Mi, he.
.
- No, Im not going.
Hye Mi! Im not going to go! Hello? Hello? Dad? Hey, how can you hang up like that? It had been so long since he last called.
Whatever, we can just live by ourselves.
Who is Kang Oh Hyuk for her to get that mad? The basics of deep breathing No, no, no, no Bend down your upper body like me, relax your neck, breathe deep and Aaaa.
Its already the end of class.
Mr.
Kang Oh Hyuk, the school staff meeting today will be held in the 3rd floor conference room.
Ah, thank you for telling me.
This month, we are expected to have two teacher position vacancies.
One is for English teacher Cho Sung Hee who will be on maternity leave beginning next month.
And the other person, is someone who received the lowest point in the teacher evaluation for three consecutive years.
Unfortunately The students he was in charge of, all failed the monthly assessment and was demoted to the College Preparatory Class.
As soon as I get the directors approval, you will receive a dismissal notice from the school.
I dont need to say who it is, right? What are you doing, Teacher Kang Oh Hyuk? Arent you going to answer your phone? Ah, yes Im sorry.
Hello, Im in the middle of a meeting and cant answer the phone Who? Whose daughter? What? How? How did you get my number? Aigoo.
Hey, are you crazy? What the hell are you? Go Hye Mi.
What? What? Daughter of Cha Myung Ok.
Ah .
Um.
.
has it been seven years? Eight years? I havent seen you for so long that I didnt even recognize you.
You should have brought your sister too.
What was her name? Hye Sung? Hye Sung doesnt know what you did.
What do you mean what I did.
What did I do? Do you not remember? You seduced my innocent mother and made her divorce with my dad.
I remember, I remember everything Im really sorry, I really am indebted to you guys.
Lets eat Do you want a chance to repay us? Sure, sure.
What can I do for you? Say anything.
Hye Sung and I might have to live on the streets.
On the streets, why? My fathers business failed and he fled out of Korea.
Oh no So were thinking that well stay at your place until our dad comes back.
Youre saying that youre going to leech off me? Were not leeching off you.
Were giving you a chance.
A chance to repay us.
Yeah A chance.
Wait here, Ill bring my car.
Oh my gosh.
How can I shelter them when I can't even fend for myself? I'm going to go crazy! Hey! Hey! [Teenagers are our future.
.]
Hye Mi, are you really going to go to Juilliard? Yeah.
Then can I sleep over at your place today? We don't even have that much time left to spend together.
Ah! No, you can't.
That scared me, why? We're redoing our living room interior.
It's going to be pretty loud.
I see Okay.
Who is he? I've been waiting forever.
Ah, he must be your new chauffeur.
Right? Bingo, I am the chauffeur.
Please get in the car, Miss.
You really need to get in the car, Miss.
Where do you think you're going? Since you're going that way, can't you drive me until you hit that corner over there? I can't.
Your friend doesn't seem to know that your family went bankrupt.
What a punk.
It's pure tea.
Drink it and take that spite out of you.
I'm pretty good at compromising compared to others.
Do you know why? Everybody uses this to get their way.
But I use this.
I know that wringing a dry towel won't give me any water.
It will just tire me.
Your household is just like that dry towel.
Your mother passed away and your father accumulated a large debt.
The only source of possible money in your family is you, Go Hye Mi.
Dung Chi.
[Go Byung Jik Family Money Collecting Project.]
[Go Hye Mi - 1993 Birth- 6 years of vocal training - 7 years of piano.]
You seem to have a lot of talent.
[2 years of ballet - Soon to enter Juilliard Pre-College Division.]
However So you're to enter Juilliard Pre-College Division.
If you go this way and make money, it will be a long journey.
It will take a long time and you'll need money as well.
But If you slightly tweak it around a bit, it becomes a different story.
If you succeed like these people, this looks like something beneficial for both of us that'll pay your debt and make me prosperous.
So I'm hoping you'd go here.
That is I'm sure you've heard of Kirin Art School.
It's a school that makes singers.
My plan is simple.
You graduate this school with top grades, release an album through my company.
And become a hit like Lee Hyori.
Work hard for three years to pay off the principal and interest, and done.
What do you think? Why? Are you not confident about getting in? I did hear that it's a hard school to get into.
I'm not worried about getting in.
Really? That's good.
Then it's settled.
Sign here.
What if I refuse to do this? If you refuse, we can't do this.
Don't worry.
If Plan A doesn't work, we have Plan B to turn to.
Plan B? [Go Byung Jik Family Money Collecting Project 2.]
It looks good! Hyung! Ah, you're here? Are you eating ramen? This doesn't just smell of sweat.
Isn't this your underarms? How can you, a future judge, call the sweet scent of labor something like that? You should stop that labor.
Is the ramen ready? Is this Chairman Hyun's to prepare for his entering politics or pure charity? Even if it's for entering politics, $10 million is a lot of money.
[Donates $10 Million of Private Money for Solitary Elders.]
He should just give me 1% of it.
I can buy stocks and scratch-n-wins and become rich with it.
Hyung, you shouldn't like free stuff too much.
You're balding pretty badly lately.
(Korean saying: you will bald if you like free stuff) Really? Hey, do I look older than you? Hyung! Why are your shoulders so stiff, why don't you relax a bit? Your face is stiff too.
Look at me and try again.
Bravissima.
That's much better.
Wait, why is it so dry here? One humidifier is not going to be enough.
This girl will be singing with me in my concert, I can't have her ruin her throat.
Excuse me? I am singing on stage with you? Why? Do you not feel confident about it? No! I am confident.
Are you that happy? Yes, I'm very happy! You're applying to Kirin Art School? Hye Mi, you are going too? Yeah.
Then you're not going to Juilliard? Why? A genius shouldn't mind her educational environment whether it be here in Korea or some foreign country.
I don't want to take part in this study abroad trend, which induces family separation and wasteful spending of foreign currency.
Hye Mi, you don't know how great you are, do you? I know.
Vaguely.
Hye Mi, we really have to start preparing for the audition.
We? I'm going to audition for Kirin Art School as well.
You are? I might not be that talented, but I did take vocal lessons with you for a bit.
With this much skill, Juilliard may be out of reach for me, but don't you think I may make it to Kirin Art School with you? Hmm We will have to sing our assigned song individually, but let's sing our optional audition song together.
Let's sing a duet.
You know I'm pretty good at accompaniment with chords.
Let's sing together, please? Okay.
Thank you, Hye Mi! If you're thankful you pay for this.
Me I don't have that much [Director Jung Ha Myung.]
Did you check the audition schedule? Yes.
There are a few things that I would like to change.
Change? How would you like to change it? I would like to notify the students whether they passed or failed on the spot.
What if we pass more than the maximum number to be admitted? It can cause a strain in our school budget.
Then we'll have to adjust our maximum admission.
We can but And I would like this to be an open audition? This is nuts Excuse me.
Why should this be an open audition? I would like to ask you that.
Why can't it be an open audition? Debuting 42 students was our greatest record ever since the establishment of this school.
To get here, we had to go through a lot of trial and error.
I am sorry to say this.
But if we do this, we'll be going through those trial and error stages all over again.
That may be true.
However Having 49 students dropping out of school is also a record ever since our establishment.
That record really makes me sad.
[Kirin Art School Freshman Audition Application.]
Isn't today the audition for Kirin Art School? Was it? Aren't you being too relaxed? I heard applicants get really nervous and eat cheongsimhwan.
tradition medicinal herbs for relaxing It's the kids without talent who gets nervous.
Yoon Baek Hee.
You can do it! I dream high, I dream a dream Whenever I feel down, I close my eyes And I wake up thinking of the moment That my dream is accomplished From the edge of my fear, I am shaken again That I may fall like a bird that cannot fly Thinking if I can really do it, and if my dream would be accomplished Every step I take, every time I become afraid I dream high, I dream a dream Wait, wait What are you doing? We're late.
I just need a second.
Make it quick.
Amen.
Nam myoho renge kyo.
What kind of a prayer was that? I felt like the prayer wouldn't take effect if I only did one kind of prayer.
What did you pray for? Just that we would both get accepted into this school.
Hurry.
Fighting! What? Aren't you nervous? No, not at all.
Are you nervous? No not at all All applicants, please have your audition ticket and music score ready.
All audition will be held with top security enforced.
What made me survive was music, my music Music is my life Music is my life What the Is it my turn already? Sorry! I said "is it my turn?".

Number 1200 just went in.

Thank you, thank you very much! Yes! We meet again.
By any chance, did you follow me here? You think I'm crazy? Why would I come to see a human scum that seduced my mother and made her get a divorce? I got it, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Then Are you here for the audition? Me? Why would I try to come here? Unless I'm crazy, why would I come to this place full of shitheads like you? Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
And Number 1288, Go Hye Mi, please get ready for your audition.
I think they just called your name.
It's not me.
Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
Hye Mi, what are you doing here? It's our turn, let's go.
Okay, I'll go.
- Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
- Yes.
- Number 1288, Go Hye Mi.
- Yes.
Please begin.
I I had a dream Even when I was torn and shattered Isn't she that brat from last time? It is.
Why is that brat here anyway? Didn't she say that this is a shitty school? The dream that I treasured deep inside my heart Everyone worried That a fruitless dream is poison That the world is like a book with a decided ending That I can't change reality Yes I, I have a dream I believe in that dream so please watch me Against that cold tall wall called fate I can stand before it Someday, I will go over that wall And soar over the sky Even this world cannot tie me down At the end of my life, let's laugh together Thank you.
Umm, but only one of you passed the audition.
Excuse me? That can't happen.
We have to pass the audition together.
That won't work out.
If you're not going to pass both of us, just fail us both instead.
Really? But what if it's you who passed? It doesn't matter.
Fail me from the audition as well.
We said we'll be together all the way.
No.
I don't think so.
I have no intention of failing this audition with her.
That's what she thinks.
Hye Mi, what's wrong? We said we'll be together no matter what.
When did I? I never said that.
I don't want to either.
But you and I I have no intention to fail this audition with her.
I will remain here.
You two seem to have the wrong idea here.
The one who passed is not you, Go Hye Mi, but Yoon Baek Hee.
What? Yoon Baek Hee, you passed.
Wait a second.
There must be a mistake here.
I am the one who failed? Yes.
Maybe you saw the paper wrong.
I'm Go Hye Mi, you know.
I'm aware of that.
Why do you think I made a mistake? I'm very sure you're the one who failed Ahjussi! Who do you think you are? Do you even have the skills and knowledge to judge others? Did you really major in music? Aren't you just passing and failing people when you don't know anything? How How dare you call him "Ahjussi"?! How is our director an ahjussi? How rude Mr.
Kang.
Take that red coat girl out of this room.
Yes, yes.
Let's go.
Hurry.
Don't touch me.
This is quite interesting.
Let's hear more.
Yes, Sir.
I can't accept this at all.
Didn't you hear her miss the beats and mess up the whole song? I'm sure you didn't.
If you did, you couldn't have let her pass.
She's just someone who followed me here.
She's a nobody.
I'm first-rate and she's third-rate.
This is why I was against holding an audition open to the public.
Okay.
Then let's do another test.
A short answer test.
Do another test? If she can't accept the results, we'll have to make her accept it.
What if the results change? It'll get pretty sticky then.
The results will not change.
However the test results, you must accept it.
Same to you, Director.
What is he going to do if that red coat girl gets it right? Then the director will embarrass the hell out of himself.
Does that guy even know how to play the piano? It's not one song, it's mixed.
One's Gershwin, what's the other one? Stravinsky? Mallon? What kind of a weird song is this? That's an interesting mix.
This Isn't this too easy? It definitely is.
If I can get it right, everyone in the nation can get it right as well.
I'm sure you know that I mixed up two different songs.
One is Gershwin's Summertime Then, what is the other song? The other song is Ah, the director made a bad move.
He was too wreckless.
Isn't it Saint Saens' Aquarium? Didn't I say so? The results will not change.
Yoon Baek Hee, do you know the answer? The other song was Shim Soo Bong's "I don't know anything but love".
Correct.
How stupid can she be?! How can she not know that song? She didn't not know it, but couldn't even think of it, that Gershwin and trot can be mixed up together.
This is a trick.
How can you dare mix Gershwin with something like trot? This school does not accept third-rates I believe that a first-rate student is one that has the talent and tries hard.
A second-rate student, would be one that does not have the talent but tries hard.
A third-rate is Are you saying I don't have the skills and don't try either? A third-rate student is one with prejudice.
That's the reason we failed you, Go Hye Mi.
Looking back, you always were 1st place.
How does it feel? Now that you've become a third-rate.
The moment the balls disperse from the breakshot, the games begins.
Be careful.
Careful with that.
Watch your steps there.
A life changing event is the same as well.
It will come upon you as sudden as a breakshot, and disturb one's peaceful life.
In front of that change, most youngsters will be confused and scared.
If I can go back to that time, I want to tell them this, "the game has begun so don't fear and enjoy it.
" Please, save me.
Main Translator: pinkmokofox Timers: sayroo, xoxojaejae Editor/QC: snoopyvkd Coordinators: sayroo, cute girl Preview I will prove to you that your decision was wrong.
I can't believe you.
Hyun Jin Kuk, if you want to buy time, why don't you dance instead? You like dancing, don't you? Who are you? Who the hell are you? The special students should be students with skills that everyone can acknowledge.
I don't think any teacher would volunteer Ah, he's here, the teacher who will be in charge of the special students.
That's why he brought me? Two more people? You want to me to teach English at Kirin Art School? Director? Yes.
Why would you go to Dam Bong District? Come back right now.
I'm sorry to do this when we just met.
Please come with me.
Please spread the word to get High Quality
It is to watch this historical moment Korean singer K be rewarded the Grammys Award.

The 60th Grammy Awards is currently taking place right now, and it is predicted by many that Singer K will receive this years award.
Year 2018 Singer Ks second album Dream High, has received love from many fans with 100 million copies of the album being sold.

Youre just being modest.
During an interview with the CNN, K said you were his break shot.
You all know what a break shot is, right? The first shot to disperse the balls gathered together is called the break shot.
Yes, the game begins with that shot.
But whats really amazing about that breakshot is note: In Chinese characters Sam means forest, and Dong means move Sam of Forest and Dong to move, Im Song Sam Dong, the guy who moves the forest.
I will try my best today.
Even if you hit the balls at the same angle and with the same amount of power, the balls will always disperse differently.
How the balls will meet and where they will go I couldnt predict it either.
The moment the breakshot is made, the match is out of my hands and becomes the war of the balls.

Oh my gosh, even Hye Mis name is on the poster.
Thats so cool.
She was even accepted to the Juilliard Pre-College Division, no wonder her name is there.
Shes pretty, rich, and talented.
What doesnt she have? Who is she? She was taking a whole lot of pictures inside.
Who? Ah.
.
Hye Mi per? Hye Mi per? She always tags around Hye Mi, like shes Hye Mis slipper.
So Hye Mi per in short.
Shes so weird.
She copied Hye Mi from head to toe.
- Whats her name? - Name? I dont know.
Yoon Baek Hee.
Uh? Her name is not Hye Mi per, its Yoon Baek Hee.
Hye Mi Jong Mi, you seem to always use that scrunchie I gave you.
I was actually thinking of throwing that away.
But you using it like its something precious makes me feel kind of bad.
- Lets go, Baek Hee.
- Okay.
There is one thing Hye Mi doesnt have.
Manners.
Im okay with being called Hye Mi per.
I actually like it.
I dont.
Really? Then I dont like it too.
This one is out of focus Im cut off in this one I like this picture.
300 won? What the she looked rich too.
Hey, Jo In Sung, are you still doing that? Jin Kuk! Jin Kuk! Ah, it hurts.
I didnt steal it.
I picked this up and I was trying to return it to the owner.
- Its true.
- Really? Ah, it really hurts.
God, it hurts.
Go Hye Mi? Does she study vocal or something? Let me see.
Student ID - Go Hye Mi Han Kang Middle School Those maggots.
They are attracted to shit, arent they? - Shit? Maggots? - Maggots.
Shitty school.
Why is Kirin Art School a shitty school? Its the hardest art school to get in.
Pretty much all the singers these days are from that school Well they are just performers without much talent.
Theyre just gangsters, punks, and maggots.
Im going ahead.
Okay About this wallet - Im going to return it to its owner.
- Huh? - Aah!! Oppa! - One word about your new drama, please.
What genre is it? Is it action? Melodrama? - Please look over here! - Did work well with the other actors? - How do you think the ratings will come out? - Over here as well, please.
How was the atmosphere of the filming site? What do you plan to do next? A word, please.

- When will your new album be released? - The new album will be released around this May and this album Ghost? Director! What brings you here? I heard you were in China.
I came back on the same flight as you.
Really? You should have told me.
Ah, were you waiting for me? Kirin Art School graduate Kim Hyun Joong met his former teacher Director Jung Ha Myung at the airport and enacted a heartwarming scene.
Director Jung Ha Myung is known for his insight Hes finally here.
[Right Now Loan Company.]
The daughter of a person ruined by debts from a loan company flyering loan company flyers Quite funny.
In this world, there's a wonderful law called joint and several liability.
If your father Go Byung Jik cannot repay his debt, you, his daughter will repay the debt whether with money or body.
You shouldt do that.
You have to fulfill your duties as a daughter.
No.
- Im not going with you.
- Do you want to quietly come with me, or embarrass the hell out of yourself then come with me? I said Im not going! Are you trying to play around with me? Aish.
If you want to play, I will have to play along.
What is this? Is this all you can do? This isnt fun at all.
Hey.
Why dont you play with me instead? What the hell are you doing? What I always do.
Get him! My picture! Move, move move! Stop! You! Oh my gosh, whats going on? - Ouch, ouch.
- Whats going on? We meet again.
Hey, dont you remember me? The yogurt Give it back.

Arent you supposed to thank me first? I just saved you right now.
I saved you right now as well.
Why dont we just call it even? Just give me back my picture.
Lets just stop it there.
You pervert.
What? That picture wasnt taken to please the eyes of a pervert like you.
Please my eyes? I understand, as a guy, you must have wanted that picture.
Even I think that picture came out well.
Youre talking some crap.
Hey! Hey! Where are you doing, you pervert?! Give me back my picture! Hey! [Congratulations.]
[2008 Record Number of 42 Students Make Singer Debut.]
[6 Students Accepted To Berkeley College of Music.]
News! News! Breaking news! Director Jung Ha Myung returns to Kirin Art School! Really? The Director is back? We can finally meet that ghost? Ghost? His nickname is the Ghost? Thats right.
Like a ghost, he has some spiritual power.
Therefore, Ghost Jung.
Hello.
Director! Its been so long! Its been three years? Ah, has it already been that much? Is the China branch school development going well? It turned out to be more complicated than I expected.
Theres a lot of things we need to get approval for.
I see, then I guess you need to return very soon.
Do I need to? Of course not, I didnt mean it that way.
Ah, lets not just stand here and talk somewhere else.
Theres a reception prepared to congratulate your return to Kirin Art School.
- Lets go.
- No.
I want to see the students first.
Over 40 students made a debut under a major label.
Moreover, major labels from the US and Japan are inquiring about our students as well.
We can now say that Kirin Art Schools system of developing students into stars is finally settled.
Thorough training, the best teachers, and sponsors from major company We have reached a level no other schools have.
Ah, theyre going to be making their debut in three weeks.
Can you take off your elbow pad? The public wants to see highly technical performances these days.
Its not a big injury.
Such injuries can happen in school.
Cancel their practice immediately.
Director, those kids will be making their debut in three weeks.
Schedule an appointment with the hospital and get back to me about it by 9 tomorrow.
I understand your concern for the students, but the recording and publicity schedules are too complex [College Preparatory Class.]
I see that a College Preparatory Class has formed while I was gone.
This is where students with low end-of-the-month assessment scores come.
This class was formed for students that have no potential in becoming a singer.
We cant ruin their lives just because they cant become a singer.
But why arent there any students here? Ah, usually if a student ends up in the College Preparatory class, they drop out.
After all, there's a limit to the college preparation an art school can provide.
Are the freshman audition preparations going well? Why are you asking about the audition? Are you planning to attend it as a judge? Can I not? No, of of course you can.
The Director himself? Hes going to participate as a judge panel for the freshman audition? Why is he suddenly saying that hell judge? Hes doing it because he cant trust the Art Department Chair, right? - Bingo! - Bingo! Wow, I cant wait for the audition now.
Who will the Director pick? Even in the mountain, and even in the sea Nobody can be happy like this Lalalala Even if you fly on the clouds It cant be great at this, Ulalala Everything depends on your attitude What exactly is a happy life? We all say that life is hard Hey! But life isnt fun, If everythings easy, Bingo! Hey! Living a holy and noble life Without any regrets and with a pure heart Hey! The moment my life ends Gosh, this girl is driving me crazy.
You're back, Jin Kuk? You hooked up with her? Its not like that.
Just give back her picture.
Picture? Ah this? - Give it back.
- I cant just give it back for free.
How was my dance right now? Tell me and Ill give it back.
I said give it back.
Tell me and Ill really give it back to you.
- Your dance was really - Really? Vulgar.
I just told you.
Now give me back my picture.
Hey.
You say it again.
Did you just say vulgar? Hey! You want me to say it again? Your dance moves were vulgar.
Its cheap and third-rate.
You pickpocket, you gangster.
You little.
You really dont know what a gangster is, do you? - This is a bully.
- Dont.
And this is a gangster This is what a real gangster does.
Dont, shes going to bring us bad luck.
We dont even have that many days left until the Kirin Art School audition.
Kirin Art School? Ah, you were doing all this to go to that shitty school? What? Shitty school? You little Shut up and leave.
That brat! Why did you save a girl like her? - Do you know her? - No, its not like that.
Put those on, I can just ride on my bike.
It smells.
It doesnt look cool either.
That girl is too violent.
Argh, shes driving me crazy.
Boss, do you think that kid would understand since we told her like that? I told you to go easy on her.
Relax your eyes.
Dad! Dad! Where are you? Hye Sung! Hye Sung! Hye Sung! Are you okay? Of course I am.
What did those guys do? They didn't hit you, did they? No, they told me to call them back as soon as you get here.
They said theyll give me more bread if I do.
[We will forever be of help to you.]
[Loan Heaven Arrear Hell Boss Ma Du Shik - Forever Service Loan.]
Dont answer it, its the loan sharks.
Hello.
Dad? Yeah, were fine.
Where are you, Dad? Ah, never mind.
You said we shouldnt ask where you are.
Youre going out of the country? Where? Out of the country what? Why suddenly? Where are you going? I cant just run away like this every day.
I dont see what I can do in Korea.
Im going to go to your aunt in Canada and ask her to help me out.
Then what about us? Where are we going to live when this house is foreclosed and auctioned off? Write down a number.
- A number? - Just stay for a month No, two months at the longest with this person.
This person will definitely take care of you.
After you went out of business, everyone that you said would help us out just ran away.
You want us to go through this again? No, this person wouldnt be able to do that.
Who is it? Tell me the number.
Is it someone I know? You remember him, right? - Its Kang Oh Hyuk.
- Kang-Oh-Hyuk Kang Oh Hyuk?! You really had no social life, did you? Was he the only one you could think of? You want me to go to that guy? - Hye Mi, he.
.
- No, Im not going.
Hye Mi! Im not going to go! Hello? Hello? Dad? Hey, how can you hang up like that? It had been so long since he last called.
Whatever, we can just live by ourselves.
Who is Kang Oh Hyuk for her to get that mad? The basics of deep breathing No, no, no, no Bend down your upper body like me, relax your neck, breathe deep and Aaaa.
Its already the end of class.
Mr.
Kang Oh Hyuk, the school staff meeting today will be held in the 3rd floor conference room.
Ah, thank you for telling me.
This month, we are expected to have two teacher position vacancies.
One is for English teacher Cho Sung Hee who will be on maternity leave beginning next month.
And the other person, is someone who received the lowest point in the teacher evaluation for three consecutive years.
Unfortunately The students he was in charge of, all failed the monthly assessment and was demoted to the College Preparatory Class.
As soon as I get the directors approval, you will receive a dismissal notice from the school.
I dont need to say who it is, right? What are you doing, Teacher Kang Oh Hyuk? Arent you going to answer your phone? Ah, yes Im sorry.
Hello, Im in the middle of a meeting and cant answer the phone Who? Whose daughter? What? How? How did you get my number? Aigoo.
Hey, are you crazy? What the hell are you? Go Hye Mi.
What? What? Daughter of Cha Myung Ok.
Ah .
Um.
.
has it been seven years? Eight years? I havent seen you for so long that I didnt even recognize you.
You should have brought your sister too.
What was her name? Hye Sung? Hye Sung doesnt know what you did.
What do you mean what I did.
What did I do? Do you not remember? You seduced my innocent mother and made her divorce with my dad.
I remember, I remember everything Im really sorry, I really am indebted to you guys.
Lets eat Do you want a chance to repay us? Sure, sure.
What can I do for you? Say anything.
Hye Sung and I might have to live on the streets.
On the streets, why? My fathers business failed and he fled out of Korea.
Oh no So were thinking that well stay at your place until our dad comes back.
Youre saying that youre going to leech off me? Were not leeching off you.
Were giving you a chance.
A chance to repay us.
Yeah A chance.
Wait here, Ill bring my car.
Oh my gosh.
How can I shelter them when I can't even fend for myself? I'm going to go crazy! Hey! Hey! [Teenagers are our future.
.]
Hye Mi, are you really going to go to Juilliard? Yeah.
Then can I sleep over at your place today? We don't even have that much time left to spend together.
Ah! No, you can't.
That scared me, why? We're redoing our living room interior.
It's going to be pretty loud.
I see Okay.
Who is he? I've been waiting forever.
Ah, he must be your new chauffeur.
Right? Bingo, I am the chauffeur.
Please get in the car, Miss.
You really need to get in the car, Miss.
Where do you think you're going? Since you're going that way, can't you drive me until you hit that corner over there? I can't.
Your friend doesn't seem to know that your family went bankrupt.
What a punk.
It's pure tea.
Drink it and take that spite out of you.
I'm pretty good at compromising compared to others.
Do you know why? Everybody uses this to get their way.
But I use this.
I know that wringing a dry towel won't give me any water.
It will just tire me.
Your household is just like that dry towel.
Your mother passed away and your father accumulated a large debt.
The only source of possible money in your family is you, Go Hye Mi.
Dung Chi.
[Go Byung Jik Family Money Collecting Project.]
[Go Hye Mi - 1993 Birth- 6 years of vocal training - 7 years of piano.]
You seem to have a lot of talent.
[2 years of ballet - Soon to enter Juilliard Pre-College Division.]
However So you're to enter Juilliard Pre-College Division.
If you go this way and make money, it will be a long journey.
It will take a long time and you'll need money as well.
But If you slightly tweak it around a bit, it becomes a different story.
If you succeed like these people, this looks like something beneficial for both of us that'll pay your debt and make me prosperous.
So I'm hoping you'd go here.
That is I'm sure you've heard of Kirin Art School.
It's a school that makes singers.
My plan is simple.
You graduate this school with top grades, release an album through my company.
And become a hit like Lee Hyori.
Work hard for three years to pay off the principal and interest, and done.
What do you think? Why? Are you not confident about getting in? I did hear that it's a hard school to get into.
I'm not worried about getting in.
Really? That's good.
Then it's settled.
Sign here.
What if I refuse to do this? If you refuse, we can't do this.
Don't worry.
If Plan A doesn't work, we have Plan B to turn to.
Plan B? [Go Byung Jik Family Money Collecting Project 2.]
It looks good! Hyung! Ah, you're here? Are you eating ramen? This doesn't just smell of sweat.
Isn't this your underarms? How can you, a future judge, call the sweet scent of labor something like that? You should stop that labor.
Is the ramen ready? Is this Chairman Hyun's to prepare for his entering politics or pure charity? Even if it's for entering politics, $10 million is a lot of money.
[Donates $10 Million of Private Money for Solitary Elders.]
He should just give me 1% of it.
I can buy stocks and scratch-n-wins and become rich with it.
Hyung, you shouldn't like free stuff too much.
You're balding pretty badly lately.
(Korean saying: you will bald if you like free stuff) Really? Hey, do I look older than you? Hyung! Why are your shoulders so stiff, why don't you relax a bit? Your face is stiff too.
Look at me and try again.
Bravissima.
That's much better.
Wait, why is it so dry here? One humidifier is not going to be enough.
This girl will be singing with me in my concert, I can't have her ruin her throat.
Excuse me? I am singing on stage with you? Why? Do you not feel confident about it? No! I am confident.
Are you that happy? Yes, I'm very happy! You're applying to Kirin Art School? Hye Mi, you are going too? Yeah.
Then you're not going to Juilliard? Why? A genius shouldn't mind her educational environment whether it be here in Korea or some foreign country.
I don't want to take part in this study abroad trend, which induces family separation and wasteful spending of foreign currency.
Hye Mi, you don't know how great you are, do you? I know.
Vaguely.
Hye Mi, we really have to start preparing for the audition.
We? I'm going to audition for Kirin Art School as well.
You are? I might not be that talented, but I did take vocal lessons with you for a bit.
With this much skill, Juilliard may be out of reach for me, but don't you think I may make it to Kirin Art School with you? Hmm We will have to sing our assigned song individually, but let's sing our optional audition song together.
Let's sing a duet.
You know I'm pretty good at accompaniment with chords.
Let's sing together, please? Okay.
Thank you, Hye Mi! If you're thankful you pay for this.
Me I don't have that much [Director Jung Ha Myung.]
Did you check the audition schedule? Yes.
There are a few things that I would like to change.
Change? How would you like to change it? I would like to notify the students whether they passed or failed on the spot.
What if we pass more than the maximum number to be admitted? It can cause a strain in our school budget.
Then we'll have to adjust our maximum admission.
We can but And I would like this to be an open audition? This is nuts Excuse me.
Why should this be an open audition? I would like to ask you that.
Why can't it be an open audition? Debuting 42 students was our greatest record ever since the establishment of this school.
To get here, we had to go through a lot of trial and error.
I am sorry to say this.
But if we do this, we'll be going through those trial and error stages all over again.
That may be true.
However Having 49 students dropping out of school is also a record ever since our establishment.
That record really makes me sad.
[Kirin Art School Freshman Audition Application.]
Isn't today the audition for Kirin Art School? Was it? Aren't you being too relaxed? I heard applicants get really nervous and eat cheongsimhwan.
tradition medicinal herbs for relaxing It's the kids without talent who gets nervous.
Yoon Baek Hee.
You can do it! I dream high, I dream a dream Whenever I feel down, I close my eyes And I wake up thinking of the moment That my dream is accomplished From the edge of my fear, I am shaken again That I may fall like a bird that cannot fly Thinking if I can really do it, and if my dream would be accomplished Every step I take, every time I become afraid I dream high, I dream a dream Wait, wait What are you doing? We're late.
I just need a second.
Make it quick.
Amen.
Nam myoho renge kyo.
What kind of a prayer was that? I felt like the prayer wouldn't take effect if I only did one kind of prayer.
What did you pray for? Just that we would both get accepted into this school.
Hurry.
Fighting! What? Aren't you nervous? No, not at all.
Are you nervous? No not at all All applicants, please have your audition ticket and music score ready.
All audition will be held with top security enforced.
What made me survive was music, my music Music is my life Music is my life What the Is it my turn already? Sorry! I said "is it my turn?".
What the hell is he saying? I am sorry! It's gonna be a while for you.
Number 1200 just went in.
Thanks, Miss Sushi.
Will you let me know when it's my turn, please? Please, my ass Pass? Thank you very much.
What you say is just funny What you say is hella funny It's just funny to me Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Bang Bang Pass.
Thank you, thank you very much! Yes! We meet again.
By any chance, did you follow me here? You think I'm crazy? Why would I come to see a human scum that seduced my mother and made her get a divorce? I got it, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Then Are you here for the audition? Me? Why would I try to come here? Unless I'm crazy, why would I come to this place full of shitheads like you? Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
And Number 1288, Go Hye Mi, please get ready for your audition.
I think they just called your name.
It's not me.
Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
Hye Mi, what are you doing here? It's our turn, let's go.
Okay, I'll go.
- Number 1287, Yoon Baek Hee.
- Yes.
- Number 1288, Go Hye Mi.
- Yes.
Please begin.
I I had a dream Even when I was torn and shattered Isn't she that brat from last time? It is.
Why is that brat here anyway? Didn't she say that this is a shitty school? The dream that I treasured deep inside my heart Everyone worried That a fruitless dream is poison That the world is like a book with a decided ending That I can't change reality Yes I, I have a dream I believe in that dream so please watch me Against that cold tall wall called fate I can stand before it Someday, I will go over that wall And soar over the sky Even this world cannot tie me down At the end of my life, let's laugh together Thank you.
Umm, but only one of you passed the audition.
Excuse me? That can't happen.
We have to pass the audition together.
That won't work out.
If you're not going to pass both of us, just fail us both instead.
Really? But what if it's you who passed? It doesn't matter.
Fail me from the audition as well.
We said we'll be together all the way.
No.
I don't think so.
I have no intention of failing this audition with her.
That's what she thinks.
Hye Mi, what's wrong? We said we'll be together no matter what.
When did I? I never said that.
I don't want to either.
But you and I I have no intention to fail this audition with her.
I will remain here.
You two seem to have the wrong idea here.
The one who passed is not you, Go Hye Mi, but Yoon Baek Hee.
What? Yoon Baek Hee, you passed.
Wait a second.
There must be a mistake here.
I am the one who failed? Yes.
Maybe you saw the paper wrong.
I'm Go Hye Mi, you know.
I'm aware of that.
Why do you think I made a mistake? I'm very sure you're the one who failed Ahjussi! Who do you think you are? Do you even have the skills and knowledge to judge others? Did you really major in music? Aren't you just passing and failing people when you don't know anything? How How dare you call him "Ahjussi"?! How is our director an ahjussi? How rude Mr.
Kang.
Take that red coat girl out of this room.
Yes, yes.
Let's go.
Hurry.
Don't touch me.
This is quite interesting.
Let's hear more.
Yes, Sir.
I can't accept this at all.
Didn't you hear her miss the beats and mess up the whole song? I'm sure you didn't.
If you did, you couldn't have let her pass.
She's just someone who followed me here.
She's a nobody.
I'm first-rate and she's third-rate.
This is why I was against holding an audition open to the public.
Okay.
Then let's do another test.
A short answer test.
Do another test? If she can't accept the results, we'll have to make her accept it.
What if the results change? It'll get pretty sticky then.
The results will not change.
However the test results, you must accept it.
Same to you, Director.
What is he going to do if that red coat girl gets it right? Then the director will embarrass the hell out of himself.
Does that guy even know how to play the piano? It's not one song, it's mixed.
One's Gershwin, what's the other one? Stravinsky? Mallon? What kind of a weird song is this? That's an interesting mix.
This Isn't this too easy? It definitely is.
If I can get it right, everyone in the nation can get it right as well.
I'm sure you know that I mixed up two different songs.
One is Gershwin's Summertime Then, what is the other song? The other song is Ah, the director made a bad move.
He was too wreckless.
Isn't it Saint Saens' Aquarium? Didn't I say so? The results will not change.
Yoon Baek Hee, do you know the answer? The other song was Shim Soo Bong's "I don't know anything but love".
Correct.
How stupid can she be?! How can she not know that song? She didn't not know it, but couldn't even think of it, that Gershwin and trot can be mixed up together.
This is a trick.
How can you dare mix Gershwin with something like trot? This school does not accept third-rates I believe that a first-rate student is one that has the talent and tries hard.
A second-rate student, would be one that does not have the talent but tries hard.
A third-rate is Are you saying I don't have the skills and don't try either? A third-rate student is one with prejudice.
That's the reason we failed you, Go Hye Mi.
Looking back, you always were 1st place.
How does it feel? Now that you've become a third-rate.
The moment the balls disperse from the breakshot, the games begins.
Be careful.
Careful with that.
Watch your steps there.
A life changing event is the same as well.
It will come upon you as sudden as a breakshot, and disturb one's peaceful life.
In front of that change, most youngsters will be confused and scared.
If I can go back to that time, I want to tell them this, "the game has begun so don't fear and enjoy it.
" Please, save me.

Hyun Jin Kuk, if you want to buy time, why don't you dance instead? You like dancing, don't you? Who are you? Who the hell are you? The special students should be students with skills that everyone can acknowledge.
I don't think any teacher would volunteer Ah, he's here, the teacher who will be in charge of the special students.
That's why he brought me? Two more people? You want to me to teach English at Kirin Art School? Director? Yes.
Why would you go to Dam Bong District? Come back right now.
I'm sorry to do this when we just met.
Please come with me.
