SUITABLE FOR VIEWERS UNDER 15.
VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
Okay. I understand.
I heard what you had to say.
Are you finished?
I like you.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I'll play for you
as Park Joon Young the pianist.
I like
Song Ah.
So,
if you liked me,
I thought you'd offer to
play the piano for me.
But you didn't say anything.
And it's not like I
could ask you first,
so I just got upset
all on my own.
Rather than because you
wouldn't play the piano for me,
it was because I thought
you didn't like me.
I
didn't know what you'd think,
and I didn't want
to be a burden.
I see.
So when you suddenly
showed up
and said you had to
play for Jung Kyung,
do you think that
would upset me or not?
Don't smile. I really was upset.
I'm sorry.
They say you should
always hear a person out,
but from now on,
will you say what's
more important first?
Yes.
Promise.
Okay, I promise to do that.
I will play the piano for you.
No. I shouldn't say
I'll play for you.
Let me play for you
for your entrance exam.
I said what's more
important first.
No.
You don't have to play for me.
The graduate school entrance
exam is really important to me.
And that's why
I want to do it on my own.
Thanks for the offer though.
Okay.
But if things get too
tough, tell me any time.
Okay, I will.
Thank you.
I like you.
I like you.
I like you.
I came to tell you this.
EPISODE 9: DOLCE, SWEETLY
What? You're dating
Park Joon Young?
- Yes.
- That's just great.
Congratulations, Song Ah.
- Congratulations, Song Ah.
- Thank you.
It's great news.
So What about me now?
What?
You'll always go
out to eat with him.
Park Joon Young, how dare you
take Song Ah away from me?
I apologize.
Hello.
Hello.
- You found us.
- Yes.
Thanks to someone who
yelled my name very loudly.
Hello.
I'm Kang Min Seong,
Song Ah's friend.
Hello. I'm Park Joon Young.
- Did you have lunch?
- Not yet.
If you haven't
either, come with us.
No, no. It's fine.
No, join us.
I know when I'm not welcome.
I hope you two enjoy a
fun-filled and happy date.
- No, eat with us.
- See you next time!
She's not usually like that.
When do your lectures end today?
Song Ah.
- Hello.
- Can we join you?
You two are always together. No
wonder there's a false rumour
going around that you're dating.
It's not a false rumour.
- What?
- What?
You didn't tell
them we're dating?
No way. Song Ah.
Song Ah. Is it true?
Yes.
No way. This is insane.
You two look great together.
- This is huge.
- It really is.
What do you do
after class today?
I'm going to Kyunghoo's office.
What for?
Professor Lee Soo Kyung is
organizing a chamber orchestra,
and I'm helping
her out with that.
We want our first performance
to be at Kyunghoo Art Hall,
so I'm going to
hand in the form.
Do you want to come with me?
You live nearby anyway.
I have to practice here today.
- What time do you leave?
- At 4pm.
But I have some time to kill,
so I want to practice as well.
I still have two more lectures.
Okay. That's too bad.
- Thank you.
- Sure, no problem.
Song Ah and Park Joon
Young are really dating.
- She said no last time.
- I just asked her.
Park Joon Young's sitting
next to me right now.
What a historic campus couple.
Campus couples are the
worst after a break-up.
What? Did you say something?
Nothing, professor.
Hello.
The chamber orchestra?
Hey.
Why
Don't you have a lecture?
It was cancelled.
Can I stay until
my next lecture?
Yes, of course.
Sit over here.
Thank you.
I'll sit very still.
You can practice.
Can you give me that?
The violin?
No, the handkerchief.
Why
Okay.
I'll give it to you next
time. After I wash it.
No.
I want it now.
Thank you. I'll
buy you a new one.
No, it's fine. I
have more at home.
So do I. I have many.
But
this is different.
I want to give
you a present too.
Okay.
Then promise to buy me one.
I'm sorry.
I set an alarm to remind me
to go to Kyunghoo's office.
I'm sorry. The call
lasted a while.
- Here's your coffee.
- Thanks.
Oh, this. The application
to rent the hall?
Yes.
You're too busy preparing for
your entrance exam to help us,
but you have time to help your
professor with the orchestra?
I'm sorry.
Isn't a chamber
orchestra a lot of work?
It's manageable.
There must be so much to do
if you're just starting up.
Hang on.
If your first performance
is at our hall,
then you'll be on stage
as a violinist too.
Yes.
I'll come with some flowers.
How are things at work?
We might not get
a bonus this year.
Why not?
I heard Kyunghoo Card's struggling,
but are things that bad?
- Is this too expensive? Cancel
- No, no.
I paid with the
company credit card.
Here is my business card.
Your company's not up yet
and you have a business card?
It's easier if you
do things in advance.
Gosh, "representative".
Good for you.
You came all the
way here for once.
It's a pity you can't
stay for the performance.
I'm sorry.
I'm practising for my
graduate school entrance exam,
and I feel anxious.
Don't apologize.
Come over whenever you
want to see a performance.
I will.
By the way, Ms. Cha
Well You see
Joon Young and I
It's good news, right?
Yes.
That's great. You
make a lovely couple.
Thank you, Ms. Cha.
Are there lots more to do?
No.
Ms. Cha.
I'm disappointed with Song Ah.
Why?
Professor Lee's
chamber orchestra.
Of course, there are some great
chamber orchestras that do well,
but ones like Professor Lee's are
like a cartel for her benefits.
She can't give talks or lectures
unless she has good connections,
so I understand how
people without a decent career
would give anything to join.
But professors using
desperate pupils
to cement their
own connections
I'm sure Song Ah
knows how things are,
but I didn't think she'd
take such a leading role.
It means she wants it that
much, just like you said.
Yes.
Well, I guess I'm just saying this
since I don't know her position.
SOO CHAMBER ORCHESTRA DOCUMENTS
FOR KYUNGHOO ART HALL PERFORMANCE
I'll give you the sheet music
for the recital. Let's meet.
I'LL GIVE YOU THE SHEET MUSIC
FOR THE RECITAL. LET'S MEET.
Okay.
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
NAH MOON SOOK
PROFESSOR SONG JEONG HEE,
DIRECTOR LEE JUNG KYUNG
Hey, how could only
five guys gather
out of 26 people
for a high school music
department reunion?
It's because everyone's abroad.
They're not even coming
back for summer break.
Still, everyone in Korea came
except for Yoon Dong
Yun and Park Joon Young.
So the only two who
make money didn't come.
That's true.
I can understand since
CEO Yoon needs to work.
Hyeon Ho, what about Joon Young?
I'm not sure.
Come on. He's not on the level
to come to a high school reunion.
Still, he's literally
an ATM for his parents.
The true winner is Hyeon Ho.
It's not easy to become
Kyunghoo Group's family
You better not ignore us later
after you become rich or something.
Remember to come and pay
for our food. Got it?
- Guys
- Here's your sweet and sour pork.
- Yes!
- It's finally here.
- Thank you.
- This looks delicious.
- Shall I pour the sauce?
- No.
- Enjoy.
- Let's dip it in the sauce.
How was your first board
of directors meeting?
I was just sitting in the back,
but I feel totally drained.
Really? It seemed so.
But if Mr. Han
marries Director Lee,
he'll become their
family member.
Goodness, just thinking
about it feels suffocating.
It's so hard to
find work lately
with just a few
lines on my resume.
So whenever there's an opening
for a guest orchestra member,
I'm even willing to
go to the countryside.
I should've buttered up to the
professor before I went abroad.
Do you think that's
all it takes?
As long as your family is rich,
the professors just take
care of you naturally.
I know, tell me about it.
Oh, right. My cousin
joined a chamber
made by Professor Lee Soo
Kyung at Seoryeong University.
The violinists are all direct
pupils of the professor,
but they still have some
vacancies for other instruments.
So I'm thinking of asking
my cousin to recommend me.
- Do you guys want in too?
- Hey, me.
Let me gain some
connections too.
- Put your hand down.
- Why?
Me too.
No way, you can't join.
Why? I need experience
and connections too.
We know that, but your girlfriend
is Song Jeong Hee's best pupil.
Do you think Professor
Lee will accept you?
Oh, you're right.
Hyeon Ho, you should ask if you
can join Professor Song's chamber.
Use your girlfriend's
connections.
- Jung Kyung and I broke up.
- Seriously.
Just focus on becoming
a good husband.
Are you going to keep playing
cello after you get married?
We broke up.
What?
So can you recommend me too?
Oh, okay.
This is spicy.
Oh, I still had some here.
Let's eat.
How's your mother's health?
She had major surgery last year.
She's okay.
Does she still live
alone in Cheorwon?
What about her farm?
My younger brother is taking
care of her since last year.
Oh, I see.
I'm sorry for asking so late.
It's okay.
Kyung Seon introduced you to
me for the first time here.
It was my first time eating
at a place like this.
She used to worry me so much,
but now that she's gone,
I've forgotten everything
and I just miss her.
I hope you're like me too.
You know how cranky
she used to be.
She said she took after you.
Me?
She did?
I'm thinking of letting Jung
Kyung run the foundation.
I guess everyone
has their own place.
What about you?
Was it difficult to
live in a place
that wasn't for you?
I sent my cousin your number.
Thank you.
Let's eat.
Still, you two dated
longer than I thought.
I was wondering if you guys
were really getting married.
Me too.
Just wait and see.
I bet we'll see an article
soon saying Jung Kyung found
a similar rich guy and
will get married soon.
So don't send her a text
at two in the morning
saying, "Are you sleeping?
I miss you. I'm drunk."
Seriously, don't
send texts like that.
He won't.
Man, Jung Kyung is so mean.
How could she dump him
after dating for 10 years?
You should ask for alimony or
something. Don't you think?
- Stop it.
- Why?
I get it, so stop.
Gosh, I guess we've known
each other for so long.
We've seen Hyeon
Ho become single
and Joon Young dating a girl.
Joon Young? Is he dating?
Yes. I heard he's dating one
of Professor Lee's pupils.
Really? From which class?
Isn't she too young for him?
No, she's a senior this year,
but I heard she studied
business at Seoryeong before
so she's the same age as us.
Are you finished?
Yes.
You're good.
You practised hard, and
you've improved a lot.
Thank you.
I know it's hard
working for our chamber.
Everyone is so jealous since
you're so good at your job.
It's nothing.
Almost all the members
have been decided,
so let's find a day to meet
each other and have a meal.
Oh, okay.
There's a place
in Hannam-dong
that makes great
stir-fried meatballs.
I know that place.
You do? That place
is good, right?
Yes.
But that place is
a bit expensive.
It'll be more than 30
people. Is that okay?
It's fine, don't worry.
We should eat something good
since it's our first gathering.
Oh, okay.
You should collect
the money in advance.
No one carries cash these days.
Oh, so we'll each be paying?
Okay, I understand.
Okay, I'll see you next week.
Okay.
Oh, Song Ah.
You did really great today.
Thank you.
Oh, by the way.
I received some more
recommendations right now.
I'll send you their numbers,
so tell them to come too.
Okay.
Here's the sheet music.
Is the theme of your
recital French romanticism?
Yes.
I was going to play
a Brahms piece,
but since you don't play
Brahms, I changed it.
You can play it if you want.
I don't mind.
Good.
But I won't play Brahms.
I don't think I can
play his songs anymore.
Anyway, I'm glad
I switched pieces.
The piano part is especially
important for Franck's sonata.
And it's your specialty.
There's nothing I
can do on my own.
If I think about it,
it was always the case.
I was born with talent,
though I wonder where
that went to now.
The same goes for my
violin. A Stradivarius?
It's too good for me.
And your playing the piano
for me is excessive too.
No.
It's not excessive.
Did you have lunch?
I'm dating Song Ah.
PROFESSOR LEE SOO KYUNG
HAN HYEON HO, CELLO
I'm dating Song Ah.
Okay. I got it.
So let's practice at
Kyunghoo's rehearsal room.
Not at your place.
Okay.
- The order
- And
talk to Hyeon Ho.
About last time.
I'll deal with my own issues.
It's my issue as well.
Do that for me.
Oh, that's why you called.
Thank you for accepting me.
I didn't play a
role in anything.
All the members will
gather for dinner soon.
I'll get back to you
when I have the details.
- Wait, Song Ah.
- Yes?
Are you dating Joon Young?
Goodbye, then.
Yes.
That's
That's great.
Thank you.
I'll get back to you soon. Bye.
- Hyeon Ho.
- Hey.
Come inside. Let's talk.
What are you doing?
You're not invited.
You can go.
THE NEXT EPISODE WILL AIR SOON
I heard you're dating Song Ah.
- Yes.
- But what are you doing now?
Why are you with Jung Kyung?
I'm going to play for her.
It's for her Seoryeong
University appointment recital.
So I met her to get
the sheet music.
- You know, last time
- You'll play for Jung Kyung?
Do you think this makes sense?
I already told Song Ah
and Jung Kyung knows too.
Know what?
That I'm seeing Song Ah.
I
told her.
Seriously
How could you do that?
How could you do
that to Jung Kyung?
I
was worried Jung Kyung might
find out you were seeing Song Ah.
I was worried Jung
Kyung might get hurt.
That's why I pulled you
aside like this. But
How could you say
that so easily?
Our high school friends
are up there right now.
I told them we broke up,
so just go before they see you.
So, if there's anything
you want to know
or ask about Park Joon Young,
you can ask me anytime.
Okay, I see.
But isn't it more stable for
you to stay with Kyunghoo?
Well, we'll have
to see about that.
If I'm fortunate, I'll be
able to look forward to
changing my life entirely
thanks to Park Joon Young.
Yes, Professor.
Goodness.
Yes, sir. I just
met Professor Yoo.
Contrary to the rumours,
he doesn't seem to be on such
bad terms with Joon Young.
So, do you think you'll be
able to teach Joon Young?
Oh, yes.
But the thing is,
there are so many other
talented teachers.
I'm curious why you called me.
What's wrong with you?
As you already know,
I didn't go to a top university,
don't have much experience,
or come from a
particularly great family.
And I'm not even from
Seoryeong University,
so there's no one to
support me in Korea.
So why did you call me?
I met with various people
in order to find a good
teacher for Joon Young.
But you were the only
one who was interested
in Joon Young's potential,
rather than our foundation.
Does that answer your question?
Oh, yes.
I guess
I'm very fortunate.
Now, it's time for us
to bet Joon Young's
fortune on you.
SEORYEONG UNIVERSITY
PROFESSOR YOO TAE JIN
Mr. Yoo really became
a professor here.
Hasn't he only been a
lecturer for a few years?
Park Joon Young won a prize
in the Chopin Competition.
Gosh, his life has changed
entirely thanks to Park Joon Young.
He's so lucky.
If I'm fortunate, I'll be
able to look forward to
changing my life entirely
thanks to Park Joon Young.
Fortune?
It's all thanks to talent.
- Joon Young.
- Young In.
- Are you here to practice?
- Yes.
- Are you going home now?
- Yes.
It's a bit late.
About the contract, I'm still
discussing it with Chris.
I'll make sure it works out.
Okay. Thanks.
Go on and practice then.
Don't stay too late.
- Young In.
- Yes?
Things went well
between me and Song Ah.
Why aren't you saying
anything? I'm so embarrassed.
I'm happy for you, Joon Young.
I'm happy that you've
met a nice girl,
and I'm happy it's Song Ah.
And
I'm also happy you told me this.
It felt unfortunate sometimes.
Every time you suffered,
I wanted to say things like
"Don't worry, it'll be okay."
"Everything will be fine."
But no matter how much I
wanted to tell you that,
you never said anything.
Well
I don't want the
people I like
to get hurt or
suffer because of me.
Even if I say something,
nothing will be solved.
It's my business anyway, so I
just want to shoulder it alone.
I just
want them to think that
I'm always doing fine.
But still,
I hope you're
different with Song Ah.
Don't just try to show
each other your good sides,
but I hope you share
your pain and flaws
so you can rely on and
comfort each other.
I hope you can be that
way for one another.
By the way, I was complimented
during today's lesson.
Really?
Gosh, are you finally
going to graduate school?
I don't know yet. But I feel
happy since I was complimented.
Hey, but don't get a PhD.
What? Isn't that your dream?
Oh, right.
I'm so happy for you.
I think your hard work
is finally paying off.
Thank you.
Sorry.
What? Is it your professor?
No, it's Eun Ji.
Eun Ji? What is it?
Eun Ji said she'd
set me up with a guy.
But I just can't
seem to say yes.
What should I do?
Should I say yes or not?
Say yes.
Really?
Yes, do it.
Say yes
and meet a nice guy.
Will there be another
person I like as much as
Dong Yun?
Yes. There will be.
Okay. Since you
insist so strongly,
I'm going to go on a blind date.
- I'll tell her right away.
- Okay.
Yes, Song Ah.
Do you not like it?
Oh, no, that's not it.
Then why aren't you eating it?
Well Actually, I don't
eat ice cream often.
What?
But you said you wanted to eat
ice cream at school before.
Well That was
It was just an excuse
that popped into my head.
An excuse to see you.
What?
I thought you liked ice cream
and asked if you wanted some.
I do like it.
You just said you
didn't just now.
I really do like it.
Come on, you really
don't like ice cream.
Give it here, I'll eat it.
No, I'm going to eat it.
- You don't have to eat it.
- I'm really going to
- You're here.
- Yes.
I got here a little while ago,
but I stood outside to listen.
You could've just come in.
What were you playing?
Just this and that.
Take a seat.
How did it sound from outside?
It was lovely.
Praise should be detailed.
What? Detailed?
I'm not really
sure how to put it.
It was just Just like
"Goodness, so this is
the skill of someone"
"who wins music competitions."
- Is that a compliment?
- Yes, of course it is.
It doesn't sound so.
Did it show?
Oh, I saw Professor
Yoo Tae Jin just now.
- Professor Yoo?
- Yes.
What are Professor
Yoo's lessons like?
They must be different from
other professors' lessons
seeing how good his pupils are.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
He taught me since I
was in eighth grade.
I don't know the difference.
He's nice. He's a good person.
You didn't fall for it.
If you said something
bad about Professor Yoo,
I was going to complain
about Professor Lee.
If I think about it,
Dong Yun was a good
teacher as well.
Teaching me must've
been so frustrating,
but he never got annoyed once.
You're praising
another guy in my face?
And just like that,
you got jealous?
I can't have dinner
with you today.
Why not?
It's the birthday of
one of my club friends.
Yoon Dong Yun is on a business
trip and won't be there today.
Don't get jealous.
Okay. Have fun.
I have to go to a lecture.
Let's talk soon.
Bye.
What are Professor
Yoo's lessons like?
They must be different from
other professors' lessons
seeing how good his pupils are.
Why are you back?
Didn't you refuse my lessons
thinking you could practice for
the Chopin Competition
on your own?
Why? Did failing the
competition in Australia
shock you back to your senses?
Young In doesn't
know about this.
Do you not trust her too
because I'm close to her?
Or
were you afraid Director
Nah would find out?
Joon Young.
You couldn't have done
anything without me.
And in the future too, you
can do nothing without me.
You must return
Director Nah's favour,
but you hate learning from me.
Fine. Then there's
only one option.
Win the Chopin Competition.
Then you can stop competing
and won't have to see me again.
I'll let it go just this once.
Forget everything
else and just play
how I tell you to.
Do you understand?
I'm Bae Yu Ri from
"Monthly Piano".
I'm Kim Hong Ju from
Daesong Daily News.
- Congratulations.
- How about a phone interview?
When are you free?
Congratulations, Joon Young.
Second place in the Chopin
Competition? Well done.
Win the Chopin Competition.
Then you can stop competing
and won't have to see me again.
Joon Young.
You must still perform many
more times as part of your win.
- Right?
- Yes.
More people will notice you,
and a better agency might
want to contact you.
I'm not saying the German agent
who called is a bad option,
but it's the first
agency you heard from.
Think carefully
before signing a deal.
Play some more and
wait for more calls
No.
I'll sign with them.
I want to leave soon.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
- It's nice and cold.
- You got me a present?
It's is good.
I didn't know Dong Yun
goes on business trips.
- Really? He's very popular.
- Is he?
Were you hoping I'd hear that?
- Hey.
- How nice of you.
You said you couldn't make it.
I got off work early.
Min Soo, happy birthday.
Thank you. You're
doing really well.
You even go on business trips?
I'm not doing well at all.
I barely pay rent.
- Song Ah.
- Thanks.
The cake Dong Yun bought
for your birthday.
It was so good, so I wanted to get
it for my boyfriend but gave up.
Eun Ji.
I had to place an
order a week ahead
and had to pick it up
from Jamsil myself.
I couldn't do it.
Hi, Min Seong.
It's Min Seong?
Put it on speaker.
- Yes.
- Yes.
Go on.
MIN SEONG
Min Seong.
Chae Song Ah. What took
you so long to pick up?
Sorry, my phone was on
silent. You're on speaker
How could you put your phone
on silent when you're dating?
Isn't Park Joon
Young calling you?
- Park Joon Young?
- Hey, Min Seong,
you're on speakerphone
right now.
What? Speakerphone?
I'm sorry. I'll be there
as soon as possible.
That's why I called. Sorry.
Okay, see you soon.
- Hey.
- You're dating him?
Is it really that
Park Joon Young?
Guys, the thing is,
- I have
- Since when?
Song Ah, are you really
dating Park Joon Young?
Yes.
- My goodness.
- This is amazing.
- Since when?
- Why didn't you tell us?
It's Min Soo's birthday today.
- That's not important.
- How long has it been?
Is Min Seong coming or
not? I wanted to see her.
Yes, sir.
I'll go out now.
My taxi's here. I better go.
- Okay, bye.
- Bye.
Let's have a drink.
Okay.
Do you know
it's been so long
since we had
a drink together?
You're right.
It's been so long.
I can't drink well.
But a long time ago,
after our weekly practice,
we stayed until late
chatting with our friends
and drank beer.
I was
so happy back then.
But at a certain moment,
I started keeping a secret
that I couldn't tell anyone.
So I was worried I
might get drunk
and say what was on my mind,
so it was hard to
drink with people.
The thing is, Dong Yun.
I
like Joon Young very much.
Is that
your answer?
Is that your answer
to my confession?
I
liked you too.
For a very long time.
Very much.
That was the secret I
didn't want anyone to know.
But
Min Seong.
DO YOU LIKE BRAHMS?
You're ripping off
the other students
just to butter up the professor.
Aren't you ashamed?
I don't want to talk
about my family on TV.
Are you going to play the piano
alone in your room and stay broke?
- Why are you here?
- Min Seong, I'm really sorry.
I didn't want to lose you.
If you're not busy, go and
practice for Jung Kyung's recital.
Do you feel
uncomfortable right now?
You'll keep feeling
uncomfortable from now on.
Can I go
to your place?
I want to know more about you.
THE FOLLOWING CONTENT MAY NOT BE
SUITABLE FOR VIEWERS UNDER 15.
VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
Okay. I understand.
I heard what you had to say.
Are you finished?
I like you.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I'll play for you
as Park Joon Young the pianist.
I like
Song Ah.
So,
if you liked me,
I thought you'd offer to
play the piano for me.
But you didn't say anything.
And it's not like I
could ask you first,
so I just got upset
all on my own.
Rather than because you
wouldn't play the piano for me,
it was because I thought
you didn't like me.
I
didn't know what you'd think,
and I didn't want
to be a burden.
I see.
So when you suddenly
showed up
and said you had to
play for Jung Kyung,
do you think that
would upset me or not?
Don't smile. I really was upset.
I'm sorry.
They say you should
always hear a person out,
but from now on,
will you say what's
more important first?
Yes.
Promise.
Okay, I promise to do that.
I will play the piano for you.
No. I shouldn't say
I'll play for you.
Let me play for you
for your entrance exam.
I said what's more
important first.
No.
You don't have to play for me.
The graduate school entrance
exam is really important to me.
And that's why
I want to do it on my own.
Thanks for the offer though.
Okay.
But if things get too
tough, tell me any time.
Okay, I will.
Thank you.
I like you.
I like you.
I like you.
I came to tell you this.
EPISODE 9: DOLCE, SWEETLY
What? You're dating
Park Joon Young?
- Yes.
- That's just great.
Congratulations, Song Ah.
- Congratulations, Song Ah.
- Thank you.
It's great news.
So What about me now?
What?
You'll always go
out to eat with him.
Park Joon Young, how dare you
take Song Ah away from me?
I apologize.
Hello.
Hello.
- You found us.
- Yes.
Thanks to someone who
yelled my name very loudly.
Hello.
I'm Kang Min Seong,
Song Ah's friend.
Hello. I'm Park Joon Young.
- Did you have lunch?
- Not yet.
If you haven't
either, come with us.
No, no. It's fine.
No, join us.
I know when I'm not welcome.
I hope you two enjoy a
fun-filled and happy date.
- No, eat with us.
- See you next time!
She's not usually like that.
When do your lectures end today?
Song Ah.
- Hello.
- Can we join you?
You two are always together. No
wonder there's a false rumour
going around that you're dating.
It's not a false rumour.
- What?
- What?
You didn't tell
them we're dating?
No way. Song Ah.
Song Ah. Is it true?
Yes.
No way. This is insane.
You two look great together.
- This is huge.
- It really is.
What do you do
after class today?
I'm going to Kyunghoo's office.
What for?
Professor Lee Soo Kyung is
organizing a chamber orchestra,
and I'm helping
her out with that.
We want our first performance
to be at Kyunghoo Art Hall,
so I'm going to
hand in the form.
Do you want to come with me?
You live nearby anyway.
I have to practice here today.
- What time do you leave?
- At 4pm.
But I have some time to kill,
so I want to practice as well.
I still have two more lectures.
Okay. That's too bad.
- Thank you.
- Sure, no problem.
Song Ah and Park Joon
Young are really dating.
- She said no last time.
- I just asked her.
Park Joon Young's sitting
next to me right now.
What a historic campus couple.
Campus couples are the
worst after a break-up.
What? Did you say something?
Nothing, professor.
Hello.
The chamber orchestra?
Hey.
Why
Don't you have a lecture?
It was cancelled.
Can I stay until
my next lecture?
Yes, of course.
Sit over here.
Thank you.
I'll sit very still.
You can practice.
Can you give me that?
The violin?
No, the handkerchief.
Why
Okay.
I'll give it to you next
time. After I wash it.
No.
I want it now.
Thank you. I'll
buy you a new one.
No, it's fine. I
have more at home.
So do I. I have many.
But
this is different.
I want to give
you a present too.
Okay.
Then promise to buy me one.
I'm sorry.
I set an alarm to remind me
to go to Kyunghoo's office.
I'm sorry. The call
lasted a while.
- Here's your coffee.
- Thanks.
Oh, this. The application
to rent the hall?
Yes.
You're too busy preparing for
your entrance exam to help us,
but you have time to help your
professor with the orchestra?
I'm sorry.
Isn't a chamber
orchestra a lot of work?
It's manageable.
There must be so much to do
if you're just starting up.
Hang on.
If your first performance
is at our hall,
then you'll be on stage
as a violinist too.
Yes.
I'll come with some flowers.
How are things at work?
We might not get
a bonus this year.
Why not?
I heard Kyunghoo Card's struggling,
but are things that bad?
- Is this too expensive? Cancel
- No, no.
I paid with the
company credit card.
Here is my business card.
Your company's not up yet
and you have a business card?
It's easier if you
do things in advance.
Gosh, "representative".
Good for you.
You came all the
way here for once.
It's a pity you can't
stay for the performance.
I'm sorry.
I'm practising for my
graduate school entrance exam,
and I feel anxious.
Don't apologize.
Come over whenever you
want to see a performance.
I will.
By the way, Ms. Cha
Well You see
Joon Young and I
It's good news, right?
Yes.
That's great. You
make a lovely couple.
Thank you, Ms. Cha.
Are there lots more to do?
No.
Ms. Cha.
I'm disappointed with Song Ah.
Why?
Professor Lee's
chamber orchestra.
Of course, there are some great
chamber orchestras that do well,
but ones like Professor Lee's are
like a cartel for her benefits.
She can't give talks or lectures
unless she has good connections,
so I understand how
people without a decent career
would give anything to join.
But professors using
desperate pupils
to cement their
own connections
I'm sure Song Ah
knows how things are,
but I didn't think she'd
take such a leading role.
It means she wants it that
much, just like you said.
Yes.
Well, I guess I'm just saying this
since I don't know her position.
SOO CHAMBER ORCHESTRA DOCUMENTS
FOR KYUNGHOO ART HALL PERFORMANCE
I'll give you the sheet music
for the recital. Let's meet.
I'LL GIVE YOU THE SHEET MUSIC
FOR THE RECITAL. LET'S MEET.
Okay.
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
NAH MOON SOOK
PROFESSOR SONG JEONG HEE,
DIRECTOR LEE JUNG KYUNG
Hey, how could only
five guys gather
out of 26 people
for a high school music
department reunion?
It's because everyone's abroad.
They're not even coming
back for summer break.
Still, everyone in Korea came
except for Yoon Dong
Yun and Park Joon Young.
So the only two who
make money didn't come.
That's true.
I can understand since
CEO Yoon needs to work.
Hyeon Ho, what about Joon Young?
I'm not sure.
Come on. He's not on the level
to come to a high school reunion.
Still, he's literally
an ATM for his parents.
The true winner is Hyeon Ho.
It's not easy to become
Kyunghoo Group's family
You better not ignore us later
after you become rich or something.
Remember to come and pay
for our food. Got it?
- Guys
- Here's your sweet and sour pork.
- Yes!
- It's finally here.
- Thank you.
- This looks delicious.
- Shall I pour the sauce?
- No.
- Enjoy.
- Let's dip it in the sauce.
How was your first board
of directors meeting?
I was just sitting in the back,
but I feel totally drained.
Really? It seemed so.
But if Mr. Han
marries Director Lee,
he'll become their
family member.
Goodness, just thinking
about it feels suffocating.
It's so hard to
find work lately
with just a few
lines on my resume.
So whenever there's an opening
for a guest orchestra member,
I'm even willing to
go to the countryside.
I should've buttered up to the
professor before I went abroad.
Do you think that's
all it takes?
As long as your family is rich,
the professors just take
care of you naturally.
I know, tell me about it.
Oh, right. My cousin
joined a chamber
made by Professor Lee Soo
Kyung at Seoryeong University.
The violinists are all direct
pupils of the professor,
but they still have some
vacancies for other instruments.
So I'm thinking of asking
my cousin to recommend me.
- Do you guys want in too?
- Hey, me.
Let me gain some
connections too.
- Put your hand down.
- Why?
Me too.
No way, you can't join.
Why? I need experience
and connections too.
We know that, but your girlfriend
is Song Jeong Hee's best pupil.
Do you think Professor
Lee will accept you?
Oh, you're right.
Hyeon Ho, you should ask if you
can join Professor Song's chamber.
Use your girlfriend's
connections.
- Jung Kyung and I broke up.
- Seriously.
Just focus on becoming
a good husband.
Are you going to keep playing
cello after you get married?
We broke up.
What?
So can you recommend me too?
Oh, okay.
This is spicy.
Oh, I still had some here.
Let's eat.
How's your mother's health?
She had major surgery last year.
She's okay.
Does she still live
alone in Cheorwon?
What about her farm?
My younger brother is taking
care of her since last year.
Oh, I see.
I'm sorry for asking so late.
It's okay.
Kyung Seon introduced you to
me for the first time here.
It was my first time eating
at a place like this.
She used to worry me so much,
but now that she's gone,
I've forgotten everything
and I just miss her.
I hope you're like me too.
You know how cranky
she used to be.
She said she took after you.
Me?
She did?
I'm thinking of letting Jung
Kyung run the foundation.
I guess everyone
has their own place.
What about you?
Was it difficult to
live in a place
that wasn't for you?
I sent my cousin your number.
Thank you.
Let's eat.
Still, you two dated
longer than I thought.
I was wondering if you guys
were really getting married.
Me too.
Just wait and see.
I bet we'll see an article
soon saying Jung Kyung found
a similar rich guy and
will get married soon.
So don't send her a text
at two in the morning
saying, "Are you sleeping?
I miss you. I'm drunk."
Seriously, don't
send texts like that.
He won't.
Man, Jung Kyung is so mean.
How could she dump him
after dating for 10 years?
You should ask for alimony or
something. Don't you think?
- Stop it.
- Why?
I get it, so stop.
Gosh, I guess we've known
each other for so long.
We've seen Hyeon
Ho become single
and Joon Young dating a girl.
Joon Young? Is he dating?
Yes. I heard he's dating one
of Professor Lee's pupils.
Really? From which class?
Isn't she too young for him?
No, she's a senior this year,
but I heard she studied
business at Seoryeong before
so she's the same age as us.
Are you finished?
Yes.
You're good.
You practised hard, and
you've improved a lot.
Thank you.
I know it's hard
working for our chamber.
Everyone is so jealous since
you're so good at your job.
It's nothing.
Almost all the members
have been decided,
so let's find a day to meet
each other and have a meal.
Oh, okay.
There's a place
in Hannam-dong
that makes great
stir-fried meatballs.
I know that place.
You do? That place
is good, right?
Yes.
But that place is
a bit expensive.
It'll be more than 30
people. Is that okay?
It's fine, don't worry.
We should eat something good
since it's our first gathering.
Oh, okay.
You should collect
the money in advance.
No one carries cash these days.
Oh, so we'll each be paying?
Okay, I understand.
Okay, I'll see you next week.
Okay.
Oh, Song Ah.
You did really great today.
Thank you.
Oh, by the way.
I received some more
recommendations right now.
I'll send you their numbers,
so tell them to come too.
Okay.
Here's the sheet music.
Is the theme of your
recital French romanticism?
Yes.
I was going to play
a Brahms piece,
but since you don't play
Brahms, I changed it.
You can play it if you want.
I don't mind.
Good.
But I won't play Brahms.
I don't think I can
play his songs anymore.
Anyway, I'm glad
I switched pieces.
The piano part is especially
important for Franck's sonata.
And it's your specialty.
There's nothing I
can do on my own.
If I think about it,
it was always the case.
I was born with talent,
though I wonder where
that went to now.
The same goes for my
violin. A Stradivarius?
It's too good for me.
And your playing the piano
for me is excessive too.
No.
It's not excessive.
Did you have lunch?
I'm dating Song Ah.
PROFESSOR LEE SOO KYUNG
HAN HYEON HO, CELLO
I'm dating Song Ah.
Okay. I got it.
So let's practice at
Kyunghoo's rehearsal room.
Not at your place.
Okay.
- The order
- And
talk to Hyeon Ho.
About last time.
I'll deal with my own issues.
It's my issue as well.
Do that for me.
Oh, that's why you called.
Thank you for accepting me.
I didn't play a
role in anything.
All the members will
gather for dinner soon.
I'll get back to you
when I have the details.
- Wait, Song Ah.
- Yes?
Are you dating Joon Young?
Goodbye, then.
Yes.
That's
That's great.
Thank you.
I'll get back to you soon. Bye.
- Hyeon Ho.
- Hey.
Come inside. Let's talk.
What are you doing?
You're not invited.
You can go.
THE NEXT EPISODE WILL AIR SOON
I heard you're dating Song Ah.
- Yes.
- But what are you doing now?
Why are you with Jung Kyung?
I'm going to play for her.
It's for her Seoryeong
University appointment recital.
So I met her to get
the sheet music.
- You know, last time
- You'll play for Jung Kyung?
Do you think this makes sense?
I already told Song Ah
and Jung Kyung knows too.
Know what?
That I'm seeing Song Ah.
I
told her.
Seriously
How could you do that?
How could you do
that to Jung Kyung?
I
was worried Jung Kyung might
find out you were seeing Song Ah.
I was worried Jung
Kyung might get hurt.
That's why I pulled you
aside like this. But
How could you say
that so easily?
Our high school friends
are up there right now.
I told them we broke up,
so just go before they see you.
So, if there's anything
you want to know
or ask about Park Joon Young,
you can ask me anytime.
Okay, I see.
But isn't it more stable for
you to stay with Kyunghoo?
Well, we'll have
to see about that.
If I'm fortunate, I'll be
able to look forward to
changing my life entirely
thanks to Park Joon Young.
Yes, Professor.
Goodness.
Yes, sir. I just
met Professor Yoo.
Contrary to the rumours,
he doesn't seem to be on such
bad terms with Joon Young.
So, do you think you'll be
able to teach Joon Young?
Oh, yes.
But the thing is,
there are so many other
talented teachers.
I'm curious why you called me.
What's wrong with you?
As you already know,
I didn't go to a top university,
don't have much experience,
or come from a
particularly great family.
And I'm not even from
Seoryeong University,
so there's no one to
support me in Korea.
So why did you call me?
I met with various people
in order to find a good
teacher for Joon Young.
But you were the only
one who was interested
in Joon Young's potential,
rather than our foundation.
Does that answer your question?
Oh, yes.
I guess
I'm very fortunate.
Now, it's time for us
to bet Joon Young's
fortune on you.
SEORYEONG UNIVERSITY
PROFESSOR YOO TAE JIN
Mr. Yoo really became
a professor here.
Hasn't he only been a
lecturer for a few years?
Park Joon Young won a prize
in the Chopin Competition.
Gosh, his life has changed
entirely thanks to Park Joon Young.
He's so lucky.
If I'm fortunate, I'll be
able to look forward to
changing my life entirely
thanks to Park Joon Young.
Fortune?
It's all thanks to talent.
- Joon Young.
- Young In.
- Are you here to practice?
- Yes.
- Are you going home now?
- Yes.
It's a bit late.
About the contract, I'm still
discussing it with Chris.
I'll make sure it works out.
Okay. Thanks.
Go on and practice then.
Don't stay too late.
- Young In.
- Yes?
Things went well
between me and Song Ah.
Why aren't you saying
anything? I'm so embarrassed.
I'm happy for you, Joon Young.
I'm happy that you've
met a nice girl,
and I'm happy it's Song Ah.
And
I'm also happy you told me this.
It felt unfortunate sometimes.
Every time you suffered,
I wanted to say things like
"Don't worry, it'll be okay."
"Everything will be fine."
But no matter how much I
wanted to tell you that,
you never said anything.
Well
I don't want the
people I like
to get hurt or
suffer because of me.
Even if I say something,
nothing will be solved.
It's my business anyway, so I
just want to shoulder it alone.
I just
want them to think that
I'm always doing fine.
But still,
I hope you're
different with Song Ah.
Don't just try to show
each other your good sides,
but I hope you share
your pain and flaws
so you can rely on and
comfort each other.
I hope you can be that
way for one another.
By the way, I was complimented
during today's lesson.
Really?
Gosh, are you finally
going to graduate school?
I don't know yet. But I feel
happy since I was complimented.
Hey, but don't get a PhD.
What? Isn't that your dream?
Oh, right.
I'm so happy for you.
I think your hard work
is finally paying off.
Thank you.
Sorry.
What? Is it your professor?
No, it's Eun Ji.
Eun Ji? What is it?
Eun Ji said she'd
set me up with a guy.
But I just can't
seem to say yes.
What should I do?
Should I say yes or not?
Say yes.
Really?
Yes, do it.
Say yes
and meet a nice guy.
Will there be another
person I like as much as
Dong Yun?
Yes. There will be.
Okay. Since you
insist so strongly,
I'm going to go on a blind date.
- I'll tell her right away.
- Okay.
Yes, Song Ah.
Do you not like it?
Oh, no, that's not it.
Then why aren't you eating it?
Well Actually, I don't
eat ice cream often.
What?
But you said you wanted to eat
ice cream at school before.
Well That was
It was just an excuse
that popped into my head.
An excuse to see you.
What?
I thought you liked ice cream
and asked if you wanted some.
I do like it.
You just said you
didn't just now.
I really do like it.
Come on, you really
don't like ice cream.
Give it here, I'll eat it.
No, I'm going to eat it.
- You don't have to eat it.
- I'm really going to
- You're here.
- Yes.
I got here a little while ago,
but I stood outside to listen.
You could've just come in.
What were you playing?
Just this and that.
Take a seat.
How did it sound from outside?
It was lovely.
Praise should be detailed.
What? Detailed?
I'm not really
sure how to put it.
It was just Just like
"Goodness, so this is
the skill of someone"
"who wins music competitions."
- Is that a compliment?
- Yes, of course it is.
It doesn't sound so.
Did it show?
Oh, I saw Professor
Yoo Tae Jin just now.
- Professor Yoo?
- Yes.
What are Professor
Yoo's lessons like?
They must be different from
other professors' lessons
seeing how good his pupils are.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
He taught me since I
was in eighth grade.
I don't know the difference.
He's nice. He's a good person.
You didn't fall for it.
If you said something
bad about Professor Yoo,
I was going to complain
about Professor Lee.
If I think about it,
Dong Yun was a good
teacher as well.
Teaching me must've
been so frustrating,
but he never got annoyed once.
You're praising
another guy in my face?
And just like that,
you got jealous?
I can't have dinner
with you today.
Why not?
It's the birthday of
one of my club friends.
Yoon Dong Yun is on a business
trip and won't be there today.
Don't get jealous.
Okay. Have fun.
I have to go to a lecture.
Let's talk soon.
Bye.
What are Professor
Yoo's lessons like?
They must be different from
other professors' lessons
seeing how good his pupils are.
Why are you back?
Didn't you refuse my lessons
thinking you could practice for
the Chopin Competition
on your own?
Why? Did failing the
competition in Australia
shock you back to your senses?
Young In doesn't
know about this.
Do you not trust her too
because I'm close to her?
Or
were you afraid Director
Nah would find out?
Joon Young.
You couldn't have done
anything without me.
And in the future too, you
can do nothing without me.
You must return
Director Nah's favour,
but you hate learning from me.
Fine. Then there's
only one option.
Win the Chopin Competition.
Then you can stop competing
and won't have to see me again.
I'll let it go just this once.
Forget everything
else and just play
how I tell you to.
Do you understand?
I'm Bae Yu Ri from
"Monthly Piano".
I'm Kim Hong Ju from
Daesong Daily News.
- Congratulations.
- How about a phone interview?
When are you free?
Congratulations, Joon Young.
Second place in the Chopin
Competition? Well done.
Win the Chopin Competition.
Then you can stop competing
and won't have to see me again.
Joon Young.
You must still perform many
more times as part of your win.
- Right?
- Yes.
More people will notice you,
and a better agency might
want to contact you.
I'm not saying the German agent
who called is a bad option,
but it's the first
agency you heard from.
Think carefully
before signing a deal.
Play some more and
wait for more calls
No.
I'll sign with them.
I want to leave soon.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
- It's nice and cold.
- You got me a present?
It's is good.
I didn't know Dong Yun
goes on business trips.
- Really? He's very popular.
- Is he?
Were you hoping I'd hear that?
- Hey.
- How nice of you.
You said you couldn't make it.
I got off work early.
Min Soo, happy birthday.
Thank you. You're
doing really well.
You even go on business trips?
I'm not doing well at all.
I barely pay rent.
- Song Ah.
- Thanks.
The cake Dong Yun bought
for your birthday.
It was so good, so I wanted to get
it for my boyfriend but gave up.
Eun Ji.
I had to place an
order a week ahead
and had to pick it up
from Jamsil myself.
I couldn't do it.
Hi, Min Seong.
It's Min Seong?
Put it on speaker.
- Yes.
- Yes.
Go on.
MIN SEONG
Min Seong.
Chae Song Ah. What took
you so long to pick up?
Sorry, my phone was on
silent. You're on speaker
How could you put your phone
on silent when you're dating?
Isn't Park Joon
Young calling you?
- Park Joon Young?
- Hey, Min Seong,
you're on speakerphone
right now.
What? Speakerphone?
I'm sorry. I'll be there
as soon as possible.
That's why I called. Sorry.
Okay, see you soon.
- Hey.
- You're dating him?
Is it really that
Park Joon Young?
Guys, the thing is,
- I have
- Since when?
Song Ah, are you really
dating Park Joon Young?
Yes.
- My goodness.
- This is amazing.
- Since when?
- Why didn't you tell us?
It's Min Soo's birthday today.
- That's not important.
- How long has it been?
Is Min Seong coming or
not? I wanted to see her.
Yes, sir.
I'll go out now.
My taxi's here. I better go.
- Okay, bye.
- Bye.
Let's have a drink.
Okay.
Do you know
it's been so long
since we had
a drink together?
You're right.
It's been so long.
I can't drink well.
But a long time ago,
after our weekly practice,
we stayed until late
chatting with our friends
and drank beer.
I was
so happy back then.
But at a certain moment,
I started keeping a secret
that I couldn't tell anyone.
So I was worried I
might get drunk
and say what was on my mind,
so it was hard to
drink with people.
The thing is, Dong Yun.
I
like Joon Young very much.
Is that
your answer?
Is that your answer
to my confession?
I
liked you too.
For a very long time.
Very much.
That was the secret I
didn't want anyone to know.
But
Min Seong.
DO YOU LIKE BRAHMS?
You're ripping off
the other students
just to butter up the professor.
Aren't you ashamed?
I don't want to talk
about my family on TV.
Are you going to play the piano
alone in your room and stay broke?
- Why are you here?
- Min Seong, I'm really sorry.
I didn't want to lose you.
If you're not busy, go and
practice for Jung Kyung's recital.
Do you feel
uncomfortable right now?
You'll keep feeling
uncomfortable from now on.
Can I go
to your place?
I want to know more about you.
