Castaway Diva (2023) s01e07 Episode Script
Seo Mok-ha vs. Eun Mo-rae
1
CASTAWAY DIVA
BROTHERS SALON
The hair treatment's on the house.
I'll only charge you 60,000 won.
I don't see your husband around.
You're right. Goodness.
He's taking the whole day to recycle.
I'm really curious.
- Did you have an arranged marriage?
- No, we married out of love.
Out of love?
How's that possible?
It was love at first sight.
I wonder what made you fall for him.
Your mom and I first met
at my former workplace.
And where was that?
An office in Woldo-eup.
I used to be
a civil servant.
Seriously?
Yes.
I was the prime example
of diligence and kindness.
It's all set.
If you met at work,
was she a civil servant too?
No.
She was there to get help.
Excuse me.
I have a question.
Sure, what is it?
How do I change my name?
After you change it,
you come here to report it.
You need to go to court to change it.
I see.
Sir.
Is it possible to change it
without my husband's knowing?
Well…
It'll be easy for him to find out.
He'll just need
to get a copy of the family register.
I see.
She didn't call the police?
Ma'am.
Have you tried calling the police?
Do you need…
- I can help
- It's okay. Thank you.
I'm sure she did.
But it was useless.
So she came all the way
to the countryside on her poor legs.
Wait!
How could I not
fall in love at first sight?
He was handsome.
It's a beautiful village.
- He was a gentleman.
- If you're up for it…
Okay. Then…
Let me show you the way.
He was the first person
who tried to walk at my pace.
Your mom said
she had two sons.
And that she wanted to protect them.
That's when I found a way.
A family had disappeared in my region.
They also had two sons.
The entire family disappeared,
so they weren't reported missing.
The boys were around your age too.
Then, their names…
Are ours now.
Kang Sang-doo, Song Ha-jung, Kang Woo-hak,
and Kang Bo-geol.
Where are they?
Who knows.
They just vanished into thin air.
What if they return?
They've been missing
for over 20 years now.
They probably would've shown up by now.
Dad.
I know. What we did was wrong.
But,
back then,
we had no other choice.
Then, what are our real names?
You're Jung Chae-ho.
Bo-geol is…
Jung Ki-ho.
My name is Yang Jae-kyung.
I see. I'm Lee Uk.
Ms. Yoon lip-synced?
I had no idea.
We didn't know either.
She's going to come clean
on TV today, so the script's a bit thick.
If Ms. Yoon wins,
the actual singer will appear on stage?
She's a great singer. Who is she?
It's an incredible story.
She used to be Ms. Yoon's fan.
She left for Seoul
in middle school to audition,
and then got stranded
on a deserted island.
I was there when she was rescued.
I remember watching it on the news.
So it's her.
What was her name again?
Isn't it Seo Mok-ha?
Hey, Reporter Kang.
Mok-ha's appearing on stage?
Yes, if they win.
What's going on?
It's President Lee and Producer Kang.
We agreed to be on the show
only if she could live lip-sync.
We have no choice
but to back out otherwise.
You don't have a substitute anyway.
You're right. We don't.
We'll have to explain why the show's off.
"Ms. Eun couldn't sing live,
so she backed out."
The reporters will love that.
I heard this was your first show.
You have a knack for turning
an opportunity into a risk.
You can turn it back into an opportunity.
I'd appreciate your help.
You'll have a lot
to make right after the show.
I expect a written apology.
I'd have to resign if I allowed
lip-syncing over a pre-recorded track.
A written apology
is nothing.
What about Ms. Yoon's lip-syncing?
She'll personally apologize for it.
What's wrong with Producer Kang?
How did he know about the lip-syncing?
Why does he want to put you on stage?
I don't know either.
But Ran-joo.
Well,
we can't win anyway
since Mo-rae has so many fans.
What if we do?
Are you really going to go up there?
What do you think we should do?
I'll go on stage.
It's a live show after all.
It's a live show so what can they do?
I went through so much to get back here.
You can't take it from me.
I won't let you.
Ran-joo.
I have no intention of taking
the stage from you.
But you eventually will.
Just like Mo-rae did.
At first, she sweet-talked me
and said she was a fan who adored me.
Then, she betrayed me
when the time was right.
- Do you think you're any different?
- Yes, I am.
Mo-rae and I are absolutely different.
Don't be so sure about it.
People change.
Ran-joo.
On the deserted island,
I had a friend.
Its name was Gull.
No, you didn't. It was a deserted island.
I did. It was a seagull.
That's why its name was Gull.
I befriended it,
because I hated eating alone.
Hey.
We shared potatoes every day…
- Eat up.
- …And bonded.
How have you been?
Then, because of a typhoon,
I ran out of food.
Maybe…
for ten days, I couldn't eat anything.
I thought I was going to die.
That's when I saw
that Gull was sitting on some eggs.
You ate them.
No.
I didn't.
I'm telling you
I'd never stab you in the back.
I'd rather starve to death.
So…
I'll never steal your stage.
I said I'm leaving!
I'm not doing the show.
It'll be a huge mess if you don't.
Going on stage
would make an even bigger mess!
Lower your voice.
There are people outside.
Are you okay?
Yes, sir.
Just sing. I'll take care it afterwards.
"Take care of it"?
Will that even be possible?
Sound issues at the network.
Malfunctioning in-ear monitors.
There's a lot of excuses.
I'll hand out a press release
They'll write something different then!
"Eun Mo-rae Proves
She's Seo Mok-ha's Substitute."
"The True Diva From the Deserted Island
Beats the Fake Diva, Eun Mo-rae"!
I'm pretty much rolling out
the red carpet for Seo Mok-ha's debut.
Ms. Seo Mok-ha?
- Yes?
- Producer Kang sent us.
He said to help
with your makeup and outfit.
Goodness.
No, I don't need any of that.
No, you're right. It's for her.
She'll be performing on stage.
Today is your stage,
not mine.
Please make her look pretty.
Okay.
Go on.
This way, please.
I'm going to read the script for a bit.
Please make her look nice.
- But Ran-joo.
- Okay.
Ran-joo.
"For…
this entire time,
someone else
has been singing for me…
on this show."
Ms. Cha, I need some water.
SEO MOK-HA VS. EUN MO-RAE
We can get our names back.
And tell Mok-ha that we found Ki-ho.
Why can't we do that?
If we do that,
our entire family will be destroyed.
Mok-ha, where are you?
I heard about everything.
You might end up going on stage today.
Excuse me.
I need to tell you something.
Woo-hak.
It's me.
Mok-ha.
Yeah.
What did you need to tell me?
Right, I need to tell you.
- You see
- Ms. Seo!
Have you seen Ms. Seo?
- Ms. Seo!
- What?
- Ms. Seo!
- Yes?
- Yes?
- What?
Right.
The rehearsal is about to begin.
Okay. I'll be right there.
Let's talk later. Okay?
We'll first go through movement
on stage before starting rehearsal.
Okay.
You look totally different
from when you were on the island.
That's not true.
I think I look the same.
Come on. You looked terrible back then.
You were so filthy. Like a primitive…
Like a raw charm.
It was a totally different appeal you had.
Thank you.
Do you still volunteer and clean
deserted islands these days?
Island Keeper?
Of course.
Wait.
Actually, no.
What's up with him? He never takes breaks.
"Him"? Who are you talking about?
Kang Bo-geol.
He founded that club back in college.
That's where I met him too.
He never skipped volunteering
except when he was in the military.
What's gotten into him?
HEYDAY AGAIN
Aren't you getting in?
Right.
Goodness!
Am I dreaming?
- Isn't the stage pretty?
- It is.
Okay, so you'll be down here,
and Ms. Eun will be down there.
During the interlude,
you'll go to the back of the stage.
Once the LED door opens…
I told you.
I don't want Seo Mok-ha
showing herself to the world.
That's why I'm on this stupid show.
But now, I'm about to be her sidekick!
Why do you keep assuming she'll win?
Are you that lacking in confidence?
This contest
is an opportunity for you.
Don't be ridiculous.
When Mok-ha wasn't around,
you always said you felt inferior to her.
Now, she's here.
So challenge her.
And beat her.
I'm not sure.
Your throat can be dry,
so drink lots of water.
Use the restroom in advance.
Ms. Eun, let's go through
movements on stage.
Tell me if you're nervous
and need a medicinal pill.
Can you give me one?
- Okay. Hold on.
- All right.
Gosh, you look pretty.
You seem intent on getting your big break.
What?
My big break?
I mean, if you weren't,
why would you go this far?
I should've known
when you buttered up Ran-joo
at the Deodeok Village Festival.
If life worked the way I wanted it to,
then I wouldn't have been stranded.
And I would've become a singer already.
Judging by your words,
it looks like your life
has always worked out
the way you wanted it to.
You're more disrespectful than I thought.
Look around. Feel the vibe.
Hello.
You're going up on stage with that face?
What?
What's wrong with my face?
It seems like you have a lot
on your mind. You look very worried.
I see.
I hope you don't look like that on stage.
Without any worries or concerns,
I want you to only focus
on today's performance.
You must think I'm going to
go up on stage.
Everyone else says
what-ifs are no sure things.
Doesn't everything in life
have a fifty-fifty chance?
Either it happens or it doesn't.
You're right.
Either it happens or it doesn't.
Bo-geol.
Can you come check the LED screens?
Okay.
Isn't Ms. Seo pretty?
Now that she's all dressed up,
she's totally my type.
Do you want to die?
No. Why?
Why?
Get off me.
Could you please change the screen?
The background looks great.
Producer Kang picked it.
He said it had to look like the ocean.
The ocean?
How nice.
Looks good, right?
The lights will turn blue later.
Hey.
How was my singing?
Well, it was unexpected.
Is that a compliment or what?
Something like that.
In my eyes, you seemed
to lack a lot.
"Lack"?
What did I lack?
You lacked maturity, manners, and thought.
What?
You also lacked worries,
gloominess,
concerns,
or reasons to cry.
So whenever I looked at you…
- Jealous much?
- What?
Sure. It's understandable.
Even I'm totally jealous of myself.
You're jealous of yourself?
You see,
I saw the future me today.
And even I'm jealous of her.
She looks absolutely stunning.
From this moment on,
I'll keep going forward
toward that future.
I want people to feel
the ocean right away.
Can we make that happen?
HEYDAY AGAIN WILL BEGIN SOON
Ten seconds left in the commercials.
Prepare the jib camera.
Five, four,
three, two, one.
Host, standby.
Hello, I'm Kim Gi-hyeon,
the host of Heyday Again.
Nice to see you again.
Today, Ms. Yoon Ran-joo will attempt
- to bring about her fourth heyday.
- I wonder who will win.
I'm 80% sure Eun Mo-rae will win.
- She has a huge fandom.
- Please give them a round of applause.
First, let me introduce the person
going for her fourth heyday today.
Please welcome Yoon Ran-joo.
And this week,
we have a special contender.
Back then, she was called
"the next Yoon Ran-joo."
And now, she's known as the top diva.
Please welcome Eun Mo-rae.
Hello, I'm Eun Mo-rae.
I can't believe I'll be performing
alongside Ran-joo.
You're my mentor and role model.
Really? I had no idea. I'm honored.
Right. I'm honored as well.
You two have a beautiful friendship,
but there can be only one winner.
Now, could you each say
a few words before we begin?
Let's start with Ms. Eun.
To be honest, my throat isn't
in the best condition today.
But I still came here,
because I wanted to perform with Ran-joo.
Even if it's not the best,
I'll try my hardest,
so I hope you'll vote for me.
All right. And now, it's Ms. Yoon's turn.
BEFORE THAT, I HAVE SOMETHING
TO APOLOGIZE TO THE VIEWERS FOR
What's wrong with her?
Why won't she read the script?
I'm telling you
I'd never stab you in the back.
I'd rather starve to death.
Before that,
I have something
to apologize to the viewers for.
Apologize? For what, may I ask?
She's making me so nervous.
Camera three.
Please get a close up of Ms. Yoon.
Thank you.
For this entire time…
someone else has been singing for me
on this show.
Are you saying you've been lip-syncing?
That's correct.
I'm sorry.
I did something…
you should never do as a singer.
I have no excuse.
But there's a voice I've been wanting
all of you to hear.
And the owner of that voice
was accidentally stranded
on a deserted island 15 years ago.
That sounds very familiar.
Didn't you cover that news?
I did.
It's about Ms. Seo.
She was rescued from that island.
Thankfully, she was recently rescued
from that island after 15 years.
And her voice has remained the same.
However,
I couldn't think of a way
for her voice to be heard.
Goodness. She's talking about Mok-ha.
That's why I decided to join this show.
Even if it meant I had to lip-sync,
I wanted to share her voice with everyone.
I'm truly sorry.
In this competition, I believe
there's only one winner.
And it'll be neither me nor Mo-rae.
If you want to meet her,
don't vote for the singer.
Please vote for the best voice.
All right.
What? That wasn't part of the script.
She's so sly.
She rattled Mo-rae
and encouraged everyone to vote for her.
At this rate,
Seo Mok-ha has a shot to win.
This week's Heyday Again
isn't a match
between Yoon Ran-joo and Eun Mo-rae.
It's the mysterious voice
from a deserted island
who will go up against Eun Mo-rae.
The rules are the same.
The voice on the left is number one.
The voice on the right is number two.
Text #2142
and vote for the voice, not the singer.
The voice that receives the most votes
will appear on stage.
All right. Let's listen
to the song they will sing.
"Open Your Eyes."
Look at the stars
They shine brightly
And show how I feel
Do you feel it?
My heart is
Always thinking of you
I still love you
I think I know now
The reason why you and I met
Things are looking up for Mo-rae.
She has half of Mok-ha's total
and she hasn't even started.
That's not enough.
If those votes are from her fans,
then she needs to win
the rest with her singing.
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
Darkness slowly approaches
Even if I lose the light
She must be nervous.
Singing with style doesn't equal skills.
Be my light
I still love you
I think I know now
The reason why…
Chorus and orchestra, standby.
The voting will end in three seconds.
It's okay
I will overcome fate
And I will run to you
All right. The voting has come to an end.
This week's episode
has set two new records.
First, we received
the most number of votes ever.
Second, the winner won
by the narrowest margin ever.
Give me Seo Mok-ha's number.
Yes, sir.
Which voice did you vote for?
Lights.
Camera two. Full shot of the stage.
What were the results?
Prepare the LED screens.
Now, we will now reveal the results
and welcome the winner to the stage!
Ki-ho!
Has this ever happened to you?
When your heart is about to burst
just by thinking about something?
No.
Not until today.
Okay. I'll begin now.
All right.
Get ready.
Action.
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
We were lost in an endless maze
But now I'll never let you go
I
I will be your starlight
I will be your light forever
Look at me
I won't let go of your hands
Like the starlight
I'll be by your side forever
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
The diva from the deserted island!
Please welcome Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
You did great.
So great that I wasn't even jealous.
Ran-joo.
Now,
I can finally die in peace.
No, you can't do that.
I still have so much to do.
I'll prove to the world I was right.
This is only the beginning.
Brace yourself.
Don't betray me by giving up.
I will never betray you, Ran-joo.
Goodness.
Seo Mok-ha, "The Castaway Diva,"
is trending
all over the internet right now.
Woo-hak.
Looks like you'll have to do a follow-up.
Woo-hak!
We always bring the best.
You want to book Seo Mok-ha for your show?
I'm not sure.
Try calling RJ Entertainment.
She's working as Yoon Ran-joo's manager.
Okay, bye.
They're blowing up my phone.
Poor Yoon Ran-joo.
I thought she'd finally
made a comeback. Right?
Hey, I feel worse for Eun Mo-rae.
She used to be called
the queen of live performance.
She'll be ridiculed so much now.
Of course not.
Her die-hard servants
will do their best to defend her.
Eun Mo-rae isn't a queen.
Right.
A queen is a bit too much.
A princess maybe?
She's Eun Mo-rae, not a princess.
And they're her fans, not servants.
They're not die-hards.
They're just rooting for who they like.
Right.
Watch what you say, will you?
Go.
We'll call you next time.
Hey, you. Gosh.
Jeez. You…
You must've scrambled over here
to hear what they'd say.
I only learned it from the best.
You knew I was here
and said those things, right?
No, I didn't.
Had I known,
I would've said something else.
Like what?
"I knew it. She's a fake
and a substitute for Mok-ha."
Something like that?
Do better, will you?
It's your fans who suffer
if you don't do well.
You heard them, right?
They called your fans die-hard servants.
Your fans were often called that too.
As if you were any better.
I wasn't.
That's why I'm speaking from experience.
Be careful, or you'll end up like me.
That was harsh.
It was a piece of advice.
Didn't you say I was your role model?
You better try harder
unless you want to end up like me.
Thank you.
Excuse us.
Can you open the door, please?
They'll edit the video
of today's episode before uploading it.
We sent out a press release
that said you had a sore throat.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
Hold on a minute.
Sure.
Hang in there, Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
I'm sorry for disappointing you.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
I'll do better next time.
I'm not disappointed.
Mo-rae, please stay healthy.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
Great job today!
You looked gorgeous.
Well done.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
You were great today.
- You were the best.
- You truly were.
Ma'am.
By any chance,
do you know where Producer Kang is?
He's probably in the control room.
I see.
Great job.
I'll book a restaurant sometime next week.
You're the best.
- Good job, everyone.
- Good work.
- Are there any leftover cue cards?
- Cue cards?
What for?
I want to ask Ms. Seo for an autograph.
People are loving her right now.
An autographed cue card
from her very first show?
I might be able to purchase
a house with this.
That's going to be worth money?
You know Michael Jordan, right?
His first autographed card
was auctioned for 3.2 billion won.
Instead, why don't you
open a savings account for a house?
Mok-ha can't hold a candle
to Michael Jordan.
Can I get a card too?
Here.
HEYDAY AGAIN
Why did you put Mok-ha on stage?
The reason was simple.
It's a live show,
so we put on a live show.
And the winner was brought on stage.
So you have no plan.
I did what had to be done.
- I'm not joking right now.
- Woo-hak.
I've never been more serious.
Just as you said, our family
will be destroyed at this rate.
What?
It'll only be a matter of time
until he finds Mok-ha and us.
- We must come up with a plan
- And what exactly is your plan?
Lying, stopping her
from becoming a singer,
and living with fake names forever?
Is that your plan?
Yes, we can do that.
I'll do what you've been doing.
I can sweep the past
under the rug.
That's because you just found out.
But for me…
I've been living like this for 15 years.
And you've been doing well.
You said you could forget
the past while lying to me.
It was hard on us.
As we shared the same room,
you kept asking and I kept lying to you.
Deceiving people…
I can't do it anymore.
I'm sick and tired of it.
This is why I said
not to share personal matters.
It would only attract
all kinds of lunatics.
MENTOR
Hi, Ran-joo.
I'm in the parking lot. Where are you?
I…
Ran-joo.
I'm really sorry,
but can you go home first?
I'm…
Mok-ha.
I should've charged my phone.
What's going on?
My phone…
What do I do?
Do you need a phone?
Do you need to call Ms. Seo?
Forget it.
I'm not comfortable
receiving help from you.
When did you get her number?
Today.
What? Is she your next target?
Not necessarily a target.
I'm thinking about asking her.
Asking her? About what?
To join your agency?
I'm considering it.
Didn't Mok-ha look so beautiful?
She was dazzling.
She was.
She looked like a different person.
Maybe
we shouldn't have listened
to Bo-geol back then.
"Back then"?
Right.
Back then.
Who's in the rooftop room right now?
Yoon Ran-joo and Mok-ha.
Woo-hak brought them.
What?
Mok-ha? As in, that Mok-ha?
The girl you've been looking for?
Lower your voice. Woo-hak might wake up.
Look.
We can take her in if you want,
but what if she recognizes you?
She couldn't recognize me at all.
I must've changed a lot.
That's a relief.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure she never recognizes me.
What should we do?
Let's take her in
just until she can get back on her feet.
Please?
What's going on?
You didn't budge
when Woo-hak wanted to take her in.
Is that a yes then?
I was able to see
your precious smile thanks to her.
So I have no choice but to say yes.
Don't worry.
We'll treat her like family.
Thank you.
Thank you, Mom.
Bo-geol
smiled so beautifully back then.
This must be our punishment for lying.
The happier the kids are,
the more worried we become.
It's okay.
It's all right.
We're okay.
HEYDAY AGAIN
YOON RAN-JOO'S GREEN ROOM
DRONE'S BROTHER
Mr. Jung.
How have you been?
What brings you all the way here?
I had something to ask you.
You know
where Ki-ho is, right?
Mr. Jung.
If I knew,
would I have shown up
when you posed as him
and reached out to me?
That's a good point.
I was really hurt that day.
I was happy to see you,
but you ran away.
I'm sorry.
You were chasing me so furiously,
so I got the wrong idea.
I guess I'm just destined
to have people always misunderstand me.
Including my sons, my wife,
and you.
Then, maybe there's a reason
why that's the case.
The villagers on Chunsam Island
think Ki-ho is my only son.
But when I said "sons,"
you weren't surprised.
Did you meet Chae-ho as well?
What are you talking about?
I didn't even know you said "sons."
Thanks.
I know Ki-ho is alive thanks to you.
Now, I just need to find him.
What…
Mr. Jung.
You know I was a police officer, right?
I can see through you.
You're lying right now.
Ki-ho is hiding nearby.
Everything you just said was wrong.
Goodness.
Jeez, I'm running late.
I'll get going first.
Hello.
Where are you headed?
What do I do?
What should I do?
Where should I go?
This is so gorgeous.
ON YOUR BEGINNING…
Come in.
What is it?
Is Mok-ha home?
No, not yet. Why?
We can't reach her.
Hold on.
MENTEE
MISSED CALLS FROM MENTEE
What is this?
I'm sorry, Ran-joo.
I should be telling you this face-to-face.
Please forgive me for texting.
Please say your destination.
Well…
Which train has the fewest passengers
and is traveling the farthest?
I finally realized
after performing on stage today.
Performing on stage
wasn't a dream of mine.
It was just a horse chestnut.
I took a bite because it looked
as pretty as a regular chestnut.
But I finally realized
after taking a bite.
What is she saying?
Is she giving up on her dream?
It was so bitter.
I thought I might die if I swallowed it.
Wait up.
What's gotten into her?
I'm going to dig up potatoes again now
and live a life that befits me.
I was truly happy
that I could have
such a far-fetched dream for a moment
thanks to you.
I will forever cherish
these memories and root for you.
This place is similar
to the deserted island.
He won't find me here, right?
Compared to the deserted island,
this is good enough
to be considered paradise.
That's right.
The city life wasn't for me.
Mok-ha!
Seo Mok-ha!
Hey.
How long will it take?
Mok-ha.
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
DAMCHEON RESTAURAN
Hello.
No need to browse.
We only serve one dish.
Dried radish green gukbap.
It's 3,000 won.
I see.
Gosh, this looks delicious.
Goodness, it's nice and spicy.
Have we met before?
You look familiar.
That can't be.
This is my first time here.
Right. You're speaking
a different dialect.
Hold on.
Are you a singer by any chance?
You are.
I saw you on TV yesterday.
You were stranded on an island.
That's you, right?
Yes.
But it's too soon
to call myself a singer.
Goodness.
What do I do?
Goodness.
Here.
Here. Give me your autograph.
Ma'am.
I can't become a singer.
I can't give autographs either.
Don't be ridiculous.
Nothing is impossible.
You can do it. Okay?
Here.
Go on.
There were things
that I wasn't supposed do in life.
Apparently, there were.
Goodness, look at you.
Why are you crying?
Because…
I lied.
I did eat the seagull's eggs.
But I lied and said I didn't.
I shouldn't have done it to a friend.
I knew I was betraying it.
But I still ate them.
I was starving to death.
But the seagull can't understand.
Giving an excuse wouldn't work.
It was my one and only friend.
But we became enemies.
I feel so terrible.
That's why I'm crying.
Here.
What is she talking about?
I'm sorry.
Don't cry.
I don't need your autograph.
I'm truly sorry.
Don't be.
One gukbap, please.
Come to think of it, we haven't eaten
since yesterday evening.
Why haven't you eaten anything?
How did you know I'd be here?
I searched you online.
Searched?
Bo-geol, they spotted Mok-ha
at a cafe an hour ago.
THE CELEBRITY WHO DEBUTED TODAY
Then, maybe there's a reason
why that's the case.
You're right. It's that girl.
- Right?
- Yes.
HAMCHANG STATION
I could track you in real time
since you're kind of a public figure now.
Are you her boyfriend?
Goodness! What are you saying?
Not at all!
We're former classmates.
Middle school classmates.
Why are you doing this, Producer Kang?
Let's go home.
What home?
I never considered your house my home.
Are you really giving up on your dream?
Performing once on stage
is good enough for me.
I have nothing more to ask for.
It's me. Ki-ho.
No.
You're Producer Kang Bo-geol.
I'm Jung Ki-ho from Chunsam Middle School.
How could you do this to me?
You didn't show yourself
when I was looking for you.
Why are you showing up now
and upsetting me?
Mok-ha.
To me, you're Kang Bo-geol.
And you have to remain that way forever!
Being Kang Bo-geol is better for you too!
It was.
But there was one day…
when I regretted it.
The day I found you on the island…
I wished I was Jung Ki-ho again.
I wanted to find you
before anyone else could.
You're alive.
I knew you'd be alive.
I wanted to thank you.
I wanted to thank you…
for being alive.
CASTAWAY DIVA
Rock, paper, scissors!
The past series of events have told me
you two used to be fond of each other.
Do you still have those feelings?
I'm sorry.
I'm sick and tired
of looking after a talentless girl.
President Lee wanted to see me.
As an artist, not a manager.
If you want to help us, become famous.
I'm Yoon Ran-joo.
For the first time in a while,
I'm finally going to see my family again.
Father.
Subtitle translation by: Soo-ji Kim
CASTAWAY DIVA
BROTHERS SALON
The hair treatment's on the house.
I'll only charge you 60,000 won.
I don't see your husband around.
You're right. Goodness.
He's taking the whole day to recycle.
I'm really curious.
- Did you have an arranged marriage?
- No, we married out of love.
Out of love?
How's that possible?
It was love at first sight.
I wonder what made you fall for him.
Your mom and I first met
at my former workplace.
And where was that?
An office in Woldo-eup.
I used to be
a civil servant.
Seriously?
Yes.
I was the prime example
of diligence and kindness.
It's all set.
If you met at work,
was she a civil servant too?
No.
She was there to get help.
Excuse me.
I have a question.
Sure, what is it?
How do I change my name?
After you change it,
you come here to report it.
You need to go to court to change it.
I see.
Sir.
Is it possible to change it
without my husband's knowing?
Well…
It'll be easy for him to find out.
He'll just need
to get a copy of the family register.
I see.
She didn't call the police?
Ma'am.
Have you tried calling the police?
Do you need…
- I can help
- It's okay. Thank you.
I'm sure she did.
But it was useless.
So she came all the way
to the countryside on her poor legs.
Wait!
How could I not
fall in love at first sight?
He was handsome.
It's a beautiful village.
- He was a gentleman.
- If you're up for it…
Okay. Then…
Let me show you the way.
He was the first person
who tried to walk at my pace.
Your mom said
she had two sons.
And that she wanted to protect them.
That's when I found a way.
A family had disappeared in my region.
They also had two sons.
The entire family disappeared,
so they weren't reported missing.
The boys were around your age too.
Then, their names…
Are ours now.
Kang Sang-doo, Song Ha-jung, Kang Woo-hak,
and Kang Bo-geol.
Where are they?
Who knows.
They just vanished into thin air.
What if they return?
They've been missing
for over 20 years now.
They probably would've shown up by now.
Dad.
I know. What we did was wrong.
But,
back then,
we had no other choice.
Then, what are our real names?
You're Jung Chae-ho.
Bo-geol is…
Jung Ki-ho.
My name is Yang Jae-kyung.
I see. I'm Lee Uk.
Ms. Yoon lip-synced?
I had no idea.
We didn't know either.
She's going to come clean
on TV today, so the script's a bit thick.
If Ms. Yoon wins,
the actual singer will appear on stage?
She's a great singer. Who is she?
It's an incredible story.
She used to be Ms. Yoon's fan.
She left for Seoul
in middle school to audition,
and then got stranded
on a deserted island.
I was there when she was rescued.
I remember watching it on the news.
So it's her.
What was her name again?
Isn't it Seo Mok-ha?
Hey, Reporter Kang.
Mok-ha's appearing on stage?
Yes, if they win.
What's going on?
It's President Lee and Producer Kang.
We agreed to be on the show
only if she could live lip-sync.
We have no choice
but to back out otherwise.
You don't have a substitute anyway.
You're right. We don't.
We'll have to explain why the show's off.
"Ms. Eun couldn't sing live,
so she backed out."
The reporters will love that.
I heard this was your first show.
You have a knack for turning
an opportunity into a risk.
You can turn it back into an opportunity.
I'd appreciate your help.
You'll have a lot
to make right after the show.
I expect a written apology.
I'd have to resign if I allowed
lip-syncing over a pre-recorded track.
A written apology
is nothing.
What about Ms. Yoon's lip-syncing?
She'll personally apologize for it.
What's wrong with Producer Kang?
How did he know about the lip-syncing?
Why does he want to put you on stage?
I don't know either.
But Ran-joo.
Well,
we can't win anyway
since Mo-rae has so many fans.
What if we do?
Are you really going to go up there?
What do you think we should do?
I'll go on stage.
It's a live show after all.
It's a live show so what can they do?
I went through so much to get back here.
You can't take it from me.
I won't let you.
Ran-joo.
I have no intention of taking
the stage from you.
But you eventually will.
Just like Mo-rae did.
At first, she sweet-talked me
and said she was a fan who adored me.
Then, she betrayed me
when the time was right.
- Do you think you're any different?
- Yes, I am.
Mo-rae and I are absolutely different.
Don't be so sure about it.
People change.
Ran-joo.
On the deserted island,
I had a friend.
Its name was Gull.
No, you didn't. It was a deserted island.
I did. It was a seagull.
That's why its name was Gull.
I befriended it,
because I hated eating alone.
Hey.
We shared potatoes every day…
- Eat up.
- …And bonded.
How have you been?
Then, because of a typhoon,
I ran out of food.
Maybe…
for ten days, I couldn't eat anything.
I thought I was going to die.
That's when I saw
that Gull was sitting on some eggs.
You ate them.
No.
I didn't.
I'm telling you
I'd never stab you in the back.
I'd rather starve to death.
So…
I'll never steal your stage.
I said I'm leaving!
I'm not doing the show.
It'll be a huge mess if you don't.
Going on stage
would make an even bigger mess!
Lower your voice.
There are people outside.
Are you okay?
Yes, sir.
Just sing. I'll take care it afterwards.
"Take care of it"?
Will that even be possible?
Sound issues at the network.
Malfunctioning in-ear monitors.
There's a lot of excuses.
I'll hand out a press release
They'll write something different then!
"Eun Mo-rae Proves
She's Seo Mok-ha's Substitute."
"The True Diva From the Deserted Island
Beats the Fake Diva, Eun Mo-rae"!
I'm pretty much rolling out
the red carpet for Seo Mok-ha's debut.
Ms. Seo Mok-ha?
- Yes?
- Producer Kang sent us.
He said to help
with your makeup and outfit.
Goodness.
No, I don't need any of that.
No, you're right. It's for her.
She'll be performing on stage.
Today is your stage,
not mine.
Please make her look pretty.
Okay.
Go on.
This way, please.
I'm going to read the script for a bit.
Please make her look nice.
- But Ran-joo.
- Okay.
Ran-joo.
"For…
this entire time,
someone else
has been singing for me…
on this show."
Ms. Cha, I need some water.
SEO MOK-HA VS. EUN MO-RAE
We can get our names back.
And tell Mok-ha that we found Ki-ho.
Why can't we do that?
If we do that,
our entire family will be destroyed.
Mok-ha, where are you?
I heard about everything.
You might end up going on stage today.
Excuse me.
I need to tell you something.
Woo-hak.
It's me.
Mok-ha.
Yeah.
What did you need to tell me?
Right, I need to tell you.
- You see
- Ms. Seo!
Have you seen Ms. Seo?
- Ms. Seo!
- What?
- Ms. Seo!
- Yes?
- Yes?
- What?
Right.
The rehearsal is about to begin.
Okay. I'll be right there.
Let's talk later. Okay?
We'll first go through movement
on stage before starting rehearsal.
Okay.
You look totally different
from when you were on the island.
That's not true.
I think I look the same.
Come on. You looked terrible back then.
You were so filthy. Like a primitive…
Like a raw charm.
It was a totally different appeal you had.
Thank you.
Do you still volunteer and clean
deserted islands these days?
Island Keeper?
Of course.
Wait.
Actually, no.
What's up with him? He never takes breaks.
"Him"? Who are you talking about?
Kang Bo-geol.
He founded that club back in college.
That's where I met him too.
He never skipped volunteering
except when he was in the military.
What's gotten into him?
HEYDAY AGAIN
Aren't you getting in?
Right.
Goodness!
Am I dreaming?
- Isn't the stage pretty?
- It is.
Okay, so you'll be down here,
and Ms. Eun will be down there.
During the interlude,
you'll go to the back of the stage.
Once the LED door opens…
I told you.
I don't want Seo Mok-ha
showing herself to the world.
That's why I'm on this stupid show.
But now, I'm about to be her sidekick!
Why do you keep assuming she'll win?
Are you that lacking in confidence?
This contest
is an opportunity for you.
Don't be ridiculous.
When Mok-ha wasn't around,
you always said you felt inferior to her.
Now, she's here.
So challenge her.
And beat her.
I'm not sure.
Your throat can be dry,
so drink lots of water.
Use the restroom in advance.
Ms. Eun, let's go through
movements on stage.
Tell me if you're nervous
and need a medicinal pill.
Can you give me one?
- Okay. Hold on.
- All right.
Gosh, you look pretty.
You seem intent on getting your big break.
What?
My big break?
I mean, if you weren't,
why would you go this far?
I should've known
when you buttered up Ran-joo
at the Deodeok Village Festival.
If life worked the way I wanted it to,
then I wouldn't have been stranded.
And I would've become a singer already.
Judging by your words,
it looks like your life
has always worked out
the way you wanted it to.
You're more disrespectful than I thought.
Look around. Feel the vibe.
Hello.
You're going up on stage with that face?
What?
What's wrong with my face?
It seems like you have a lot
on your mind. You look very worried.
I see.
I hope you don't look like that on stage.
Without any worries or concerns,
I want you to only focus
on today's performance.
You must think I'm going to
go up on stage.
Everyone else says
what-ifs are no sure things.
Doesn't everything in life
have a fifty-fifty chance?
Either it happens or it doesn't.
You're right.
Either it happens or it doesn't.
Bo-geol.
Can you come check the LED screens?
Okay.
Isn't Ms. Seo pretty?
Now that she's all dressed up,
she's totally my type.
Do you want to die?
No. Why?
Why?
Get off me.
Could you please change the screen?
The background looks great.
Producer Kang picked it.
He said it had to look like the ocean.
The ocean?
How nice.
Looks good, right?
The lights will turn blue later.
Hey.
How was my singing?
Well, it was unexpected.
Is that a compliment or what?
Something like that.
In my eyes, you seemed
to lack a lot.
"Lack"?
What did I lack?
You lacked maturity, manners, and thought.
What?
You also lacked worries,
gloominess,
concerns,
or reasons to cry.
So whenever I looked at you…
- Jealous much?
- What?
Sure. It's understandable.
Even I'm totally jealous of myself.
You're jealous of yourself?
You see,
I saw the future me today.
And even I'm jealous of her.
She looks absolutely stunning.
From this moment on,
I'll keep going forward
toward that future.
I want people to feel
the ocean right away.
Can we make that happen?
HEYDAY AGAIN WILL BEGIN SOON
Ten seconds left in the commercials.
Prepare the jib camera.
Five, four,
three, two, one.
Host, standby.
Hello, I'm Kim Gi-hyeon,
the host of Heyday Again.
Nice to see you again.
Today, Ms. Yoon Ran-joo will attempt
- to bring about her fourth heyday.
- I wonder who will win.
I'm 80% sure Eun Mo-rae will win.
- She has a huge fandom.
- Please give them a round of applause.
First, let me introduce the person
going for her fourth heyday today.
Please welcome Yoon Ran-joo.
And this week,
we have a special contender.
Back then, she was called
"the next Yoon Ran-joo."
And now, she's known as the top diva.
Please welcome Eun Mo-rae.
Hello, I'm Eun Mo-rae.
I can't believe I'll be performing
alongside Ran-joo.
You're my mentor and role model.
Really? I had no idea. I'm honored.
Right. I'm honored as well.
You two have a beautiful friendship,
but there can be only one winner.
Now, could you each say
a few words before we begin?
Let's start with Ms. Eun.
To be honest, my throat isn't
in the best condition today.
But I still came here,
because I wanted to perform with Ran-joo.
Even if it's not the best,
I'll try my hardest,
so I hope you'll vote for me.
All right. And now, it's Ms. Yoon's turn.
BEFORE THAT, I HAVE SOMETHING
TO APOLOGIZE TO THE VIEWERS FOR
What's wrong with her?
Why won't she read the script?
I'm telling you
I'd never stab you in the back.
I'd rather starve to death.
Before that,
I have something
to apologize to the viewers for.
Apologize? For what, may I ask?
She's making me so nervous.
Camera three.
Please get a close up of Ms. Yoon.
Thank you.
For this entire time…
someone else has been singing for me
on this show.
Are you saying you've been lip-syncing?
That's correct.
I'm sorry.
I did something…
you should never do as a singer.
I have no excuse.
But there's a voice I've been wanting
all of you to hear.
And the owner of that voice
was accidentally stranded
on a deserted island 15 years ago.
That sounds very familiar.
Didn't you cover that news?
I did.
It's about Ms. Seo.
She was rescued from that island.
Thankfully, she was recently rescued
from that island after 15 years.
And her voice has remained the same.
However,
I couldn't think of a way
for her voice to be heard.
Goodness. She's talking about Mok-ha.
That's why I decided to join this show.
Even if it meant I had to lip-sync,
I wanted to share her voice with everyone.
I'm truly sorry.
In this competition, I believe
there's only one winner.
And it'll be neither me nor Mo-rae.
If you want to meet her,
don't vote for the singer.
Please vote for the best voice.
All right.
What? That wasn't part of the script.
She's so sly.
She rattled Mo-rae
and encouraged everyone to vote for her.
At this rate,
Seo Mok-ha has a shot to win.
This week's Heyday Again
isn't a match
between Yoon Ran-joo and Eun Mo-rae.
It's the mysterious voice
from a deserted island
who will go up against Eun Mo-rae.
The rules are the same.
The voice on the left is number one.
The voice on the right is number two.
Text #2142
and vote for the voice, not the singer.
The voice that receives the most votes
will appear on stage.
All right. Let's listen
to the song they will sing.
"Open Your Eyes."
Look at the stars
They shine brightly
And show how I feel
Do you feel it?
My heart is
Always thinking of you
I still love you
I think I know now
The reason why you and I met
Things are looking up for Mo-rae.
She has half of Mok-ha's total
and she hasn't even started.
That's not enough.
If those votes are from her fans,
then she needs to win
the rest with her singing.
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
Darkness slowly approaches
Even if I lose the light
She must be nervous.
Singing with style doesn't equal skills.
Be my light
I still love you
I think I know now
The reason why…
Chorus and orchestra, standby.
The voting will end in three seconds.
It's okay
I will overcome fate
And I will run to you
All right. The voting has come to an end.
This week's episode
has set two new records.
First, we received
the most number of votes ever.
Second, the winner won
by the narrowest margin ever.
Give me Seo Mok-ha's number.
Yes, sir.
Which voice did you vote for?
Lights.
Camera two. Full shot of the stage.
What were the results?
Prepare the LED screens.
Now, we will now reveal the results
and welcome the winner to the stage!
Ki-ho!
Has this ever happened to you?
When your heart is about to burst
just by thinking about something?
No.
Not until today.
Okay. I'll begin now.
All right.
Get ready.
Action.
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
We were lost in an endless maze
But now I'll never let you go
I
I will be your starlight
I will be your light forever
Look at me
I won't let go of your hands
Like the starlight
I'll be by your side forever
Here I stand Open your eyes
Here to be with you
The diva from the deserted island!
Please welcome Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
- Seo Mok-ha!
You did great.
So great that I wasn't even jealous.
Ran-joo.
Now,
I can finally die in peace.
No, you can't do that.
I still have so much to do.
I'll prove to the world I was right.
This is only the beginning.
Brace yourself.
Don't betray me by giving up.
I will never betray you, Ran-joo.
Goodness.
Seo Mok-ha, "The Castaway Diva,"
is trending
all over the internet right now.
Woo-hak.
Looks like you'll have to do a follow-up.
Woo-hak!
We always bring the best.
You want to book Seo Mok-ha for your show?
I'm not sure.
Try calling RJ Entertainment.
She's working as Yoon Ran-joo's manager.
Okay, bye.
They're blowing up my phone.
Poor Yoon Ran-joo.
I thought she'd finally
made a comeback. Right?
Hey, I feel worse for Eun Mo-rae.
She used to be called
the queen of live performance.
She'll be ridiculed so much now.
Of course not.
Her die-hard servants
will do their best to defend her.
Eun Mo-rae isn't a queen.
Right.
A queen is a bit too much.
A princess maybe?
She's Eun Mo-rae, not a princess.
And they're her fans, not servants.
They're not die-hards.
They're just rooting for who they like.
Right.
Watch what you say, will you?
Go.
We'll call you next time.
Hey, you. Gosh.
Jeez. You…
You must've scrambled over here
to hear what they'd say.
I only learned it from the best.
You knew I was here
and said those things, right?
No, I didn't.
Had I known,
I would've said something else.
Like what?
"I knew it. She's a fake
and a substitute for Mok-ha."
Something like that?
Do better, will you?
It's your fans who suffer
if you don't do well.
You heard them, right?
They called your fans die-hard servants.
Your fans were often called that too.
As if you were any better.
I wasn't.
That's why I'm speaking from experience.
Be careful, or you'll end up like me.
That was harsh.
It was a piece of advice.
Didn't you say I was your role model?
You better try harder
unless you want to end up like me.
Thank you.
Excuse us.
Can you open the door, please?
They'll edit the video
of today's episode before uploading it.
We sent out a press release
that said you had a sore throat.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
Hold on a minute.
Sure.
Hang in there, Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
I'm sorry for disappointing you.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
I'll do better next time.
I'm not disappointed.
Mo-rae, please stay healthy.
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
- Eun Mo-rae!
Great job today!
You looked gorgeous.
Well done.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
You were great today.
- You were the best.
- You truly were.
Ma'am.
By any chance,
do you know where Producer Kang is?
He's probably in the control room.
I see.
Great job.
I'll book a restaurant sometime next week.
You're the best.
- Good job, everyone.
- Good work.
- Are there any leftover cue cards?
- Cue cards?
What for?
I want to ask Ms. Seo for an autograph.
People are loving her right now.
An autographed cue card
from her very first show?
I might be able to purchase
a house with this.
That's going to be worth money?
You know Michael Jordan, right?
His first autographed card
was auctioned for 3.2 billion won.
Instead, why don't you
open a savings account for a house?
Mok-ha can't hold a candle
to Michael Jordan.
Can I get a card too?
Here.
HEYDAY AGAIN
Why did you put Mok-ha on stage?
The reason was simple.
It's a live show,
so we put on a live show.
And the winner was brought on stage.
So you have no plan.
I did what had to be done.
- I'm not joking right now.
- Woo-hak.
I've never been more serious.
Just as you said, our family
will be destroyed at this rate.
What?
It'll only be a matter of time
until he finds Mok-ha and us.
- We must come up with a plan
- And what exactly is your plan?
Lying, stopping her
from becoming a singer,
and living with fake names forever?
Is that your plan?
Yes, we can do that.
I'll do what you've been doing.
I can sweep the past
under the rug.
That's because you just found out.
But for me…
I've been living like this for 15 years.
And you've been doing well.
You said you could forget
the past while lying to me.
It was hard on us.
As we shared the same room,
you kept asking and I kept lying to you.
Deceiving people…
I can't do it anymore.
I'm sick and tired of it.
This is why I said
not to share personal matters.
It would only attract
all kinds of lunatics.
MENTOR
Hi, Ran-joo.
I'm in the parking lot. Where are you?
I…
Ran-joo.
I'm really sorry,
but can you go home first?
I'm…
Mok-ha.
I should've charged my phone.
What's going on?
My phone…
What do I do?
Do you need a phone?
Do you need to call Ms. Seo?
Forget it.
I'm not comfortable
receiving help from you.
When did you get her number?
Today.
What? Is she your next target?
Not necessarily a target.
I'm thinking about asking her.
Asking her? About what?
To join your agency?
I'm considering it.
Didn't Mok-ha look so beautiful?
She was dazzling.
She was.
She looked like a different person.
Maybe
we shouldn't have listened
to Bo-geol back then.
"Back then"?
Right.
Back then.
Who's in the rooftop room right now?
Yoon Ran-joo and Mok-ha.
Woo-hak brought them.
What?
Mok-ha? As in, that Mok-ha?
The girl you've been looking for?
Lower your voice. Woo-hak might wake up.
Look.
We can take her in if you want,
but what if she recognizes you?
She couldn't recognize me at all.
I must've changed a lot.
That's a relief.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure she never recognizes me.
What should we do?
Let's take her in
just until she can get back on her feet.
Please?
What's going on?
You didn't budge
when Woo-hak wanted to take her in.
Is that a yes then?
I was able to see
your precious smile thanks to her.
So I have no choice but to say yes.
Don't worry.
We'll treat her like family.
Thank you.
Thank you, Mom.
Bo-geol
smiled so beautifully back then.
This must be our punishment for lying.
The happier the kids are,
the more worried we become.
It's okay.
It's all right.
We're okay.
HEYDAY AGAIN
YOON RAN-JOO'S GREEN ROOM
DRONE'S BROTHER
Mr. Jung.
How have you been?
What brings you all the way here?
I had something to ask you.
You know
where Ki-ho is, right?
Mr. Jung.
If I knew,
would I have shown up
when you posed as him
and reached out to me?
That's a good point.
I was really hurt that day.
I was happy to see you,
but you ran away.
I'm sorry.
You were chasing me so furiously,
so I got the wrong idea.
I guess I'm just destined
to have people always misunderstand me.
Including my sons, my wife,
and you.
Then, maybe there's a reason
why that's the case.
The villagers on Chunsam Island
think Ki-ho is my only son.
But when I said "sons,"
you weren't surprised.
Did you meet Chae-ho as well?
What are you talking about?
I didn't even know you said "sons."
Thanks.
I know Ki-ho is alive thanks to you.
Now, I just need to find him.
What…
Mr. Jung.
You know I was a police officer, right?
I can see through you.
You're lying right now.
Ki-ho is hiding nearby.
Everything you just said was wrong.
Goodness.
Jeez, I'm running late.
I'll get going first.
Hello.
Where are you headed?
What do I do?
What should I do?
Where should I go?
This is so gorgeous.
ON YOUR BEGINNING…
Come in.
What is it?
Is Mok-ha home?
No, not yet. Why?
We can't reach her.
Hold on.
MENTEE
MISSED CALLS FROM MENTEE
What is this?
I'm sorry, Ran-joo.
I should be telling you this face-to-face.
Please forgive me for texting.
Please say your destination.
Well…
Which train has the fewest passengers
and is traveling the farthest?
I finally realized
after performing on stage today.
Performing on stage
wasn't a dream of mine.
It was just a horse chestnut.
I took a bite because it looked
as pretty as a regular chestnut.
But I finally realized
after taking a bite.
What is she saying?
Is she giving up on her dream?
It was so bitter.
I thought I might die if I swallowed it.
Wait up.
What's gotten into her?
I'm going to dig up potatoes again now
and live a life that befits me.
I was truly happy
that I could have
such a far-fetched dream for a moment
thanks to you.
I will forever cherish
these memories and root for you.
This place is similar
to the deserted island.
He won't find me here, right?
Compared to the deserted island,
this is good enough
to be considered paradise.
That's right.
The city life wasn't for me.
Mok-ha!
Seo Mok-ha!
Hey.
How long will it take?
Mok-ha.
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
DAMCHEON RESTAURAN
Hello.
No need to browse.
We only serve one dish.
Dried radish green gukbap.
It's 3,000 won.
I see.
Gosh, this looks delicious.
Goodness, it's nice and spicy.
Have we met before?
You look familiar.
That can't be.
This is my first time here.
Right. You're speaking
a different dialect.
Hold on.
Are you a singer by any chance?
You are.
I saw you on TV yesterday.
You were stranded on an island.
That's you, right?
Yes.
But it's too soon
to call myself a singer.
Goodness.
What do I do?
Goodness.
Here.
Here. Give me your autograph.
Ma'am.
I can't become a singer.
I can't give autographs either.
Don't be ridiculous.
Nothing is impossible.
You can do it. Okay?
Here.
Go on.
There were things
that I wasn't supposed do in life.
Apparently, there were.
Goodness, look at you.
Why are you crying?
Because…
I lied.
I did eat the seagull's eggs.
But I lied and said I didn't.
I shouldn't have done it to a friend.
I knew I was betraying it.
But I still ate them.
I was starving to death.
But the seagull can't understand.
Giving an excuse wouldn't work.
It was my one and only friend.
But we became enemies.
I feel so terrible.
That's why I'm crying.
Here.
What is she talking about?
I'm sorry.
Don't cry.
I don't need your autograph.
I'm truly sorry.
Don't be.
One gukbap, please.
Come to think of it, we haven't eaten
since yesterday evening.
Why haven't you eaten anything?
How did you know I'd be here?
I searched you online.
Searched?
Bo-geol, they spotted Mok-ha
at a cafe an hour ago.
THE CELEBRITY WHO DEBUTED TODAY
Then, maybe there's a reason
why that's the case.
You're right. It's that girl.
- Right?
- Yes.
HAMCHANG STATION
I could track you in real time
since you're kind of a public figure now.
Are you her boyfriend?
Goodness! What are you saying?
Not at all!
We're former classmates.
Middle school classmates.
Why are you doing this, Producer Kang?
Let's go home.
What home?
I never considered your house my home.
Are you really giving up on your dream?
Performing once on stage
is good enough for me.
I have nothing more to ask for.
It's me. Ki-ho.
No.
You're Producer Kang Bo-geol.
I'm Jung Ki-ho from Chunsam Middle School.
How could you do this to me?
You didn't show yourself
when I was looking for you.
Why are you showing up now
and upsetting me?
Mok-ha.
To me, you're Kang Bo-geol.
And you have to remain that way forever!
Being Kang Bo-geol is better for you too!
It was.
But there was one day…
when I regretted it.
The day I found you on the island…
I wished I was Jung Ki-ho again.
I wanted to find you
before anyone else could.
You're alive.
I knew you'd be alive.
I wanted to thank you.
I wanted to thank you…
for being alive.
CASTAWAY DIVA
Rock, paper, scissors!
The past series of events have told me
you two used to be fond of each other.
Do you still have those feelings?
I'm sorry.
I'm sick and tired
of looking after a talentless girl.
President Lee wanted to see me.
As an artist, not a manager.
If you want to help us, become famous.
I'm Yoon Ran-joo.
For the first time in a while,
I'm finally going to see my family again.
Father.
