VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
Between you and Jung Kyung
I mean, between the years you
two have known each other
Is there any space for me?
Why is it the same piece?
Song Ah.
Were you here?
I practiced here today.
The rehearsal room
was double-booked.
Did you get my text?
Yes.
Did your practice go well?
Yes. It went well.
EPISODE 11:
FERMATA, HOLD, PAUSE
How about a drink?
No, thanks.
Don't you have other friends?
No.
I only had two friends.
You and Hyeon Ho.
I'll have what she's having.
Why are you here?
What do you want?
What?
I think she went for a drink.
She didn't look too happy.
Where did she go?
I don't know.
Okay.
You always go to
the same places.
Thank you.
Hyeon Ho.
You're awake?
Where are we?
You had too much to drink.
Hyeon Ho.
Yes?
Can't you just hate me?
I want to.
But I just can't.
Song Ah.
What are you so deep
in thought about?
About Franck's sonata.
Franck's sonata? Your grad
school entrance exam piece.
Yes.
I'm thinking about
switching to something else.
Why?
I thought I could do well.
But suddenly
I'm wondering if it's
something I can't ever master.
I'm losing confidence a bit.
Did you ever feel like this?
There are pieces
that don't feel like my own.
I desperately want
to make them mine,
but they're that much harder,
so I want to flee and
play something easier.
But even if you run away,
it doesn't change anything.
The thirst for the piece
you let go only increases,
and eventually, you feel
tormented and miss it.
Is that reluctance to give up?
Reluctance
Perhaps.
So before you change a piece,
I'd like you to think carefully.
That advice is only
based on my experience.
Okay.
Cheer up.
I'm sorry that there's
nothing I can do for you.
No.
It's okay.
Are you done?
Not bad. Yes.
That's all for today.
Okay.
By the way, did you
kick out Han Hyeon Ho?
Not yet.
Not yet?
Why are you so slow
to act, Song Ah?
I can't have him in
my chamber orchestra.
Professor Song Jeong
Hee acts like
Lee Jung Kyung is her daughter
and takes her everywhere.
Do you think it makes sense for me
to let Jung Kyung's boyfriend
join my orchestra?
What is it?
Well Professor.
About Han Hyeon Ho.
What about him?
Compared to some of our
other members, he has
a pretty good career.
He'd be a great help to
us if he were to join.
- Why don't you
- Song Ah.
Do you think I'm getting
rid of him because I'm deaf?
Didn't you hear
what I just said?
Professor, it's just that
Han Hyeon Ho and Lee
Jung Kyung broke up.
They broke up?
Yes.
Song Ah. Then were
you aware that
they used to date each other?
And when I suggested we
let him in, you kept quiet?
No, well
Song Ah.
Why are we putting together
a chamber orchestra?
It's to get together with
like-minded people
who love music
and to study and learn about it.
That's right.
Yes, and the key phrase here
is "like-minded people".
That doesn't include
Han Hyeon Ho.
One uncomfortable person
ruins the whole ensemble.
We must feel comfortable
around each other.
That's why I don't want
him. Do you understand?
Why won't you answer?
Did you not understand?
No.
I understand.
MR. HAN HYEON HO
MR. HAN HYEON HO
Where is it?
I found it.
I'm so sleepy. What did you do?
Nothing.
What's this?
This is my music. Why
did you scribble on it?
Sorry, I'll erase it.
Wait.
You scribbled on sheet music?
Kiss me here as a penalty.
- No. Give it to me.
- Do it.
- I'll erase it for you.
- Once it's done, it's done.
- That's nonsense.
- It's not.
My goodness.
Will you scribble some more?
Don't you dare.
HAN HYEON HO, DON'T DOZE OFF.
Hello?
Yes, hello. How have you been?
The chamber orchestra?
Is it because of
me and Jung Kyung?
Because we used to date?
Well, I guess
I'm not sure
Okay, I get it. You're
just caught in the middle.
HAN HYEON HO, DON'T DOZE OFF.
I'll try a latte next time.
The door is closing.
Jeong Hee.
- Hello.
- Hello.
The doors are closing.
Oh, the girl who won the
Kyungdong Daily Competition.
Was her name Jung Da
Sol? She's a junior.
I heard she's your
student. Congratulations.
I didn't do anything.
She's just very talented.
I know. Da Sol is a
very ambitious girl.
I heard she even received
lessons from a second teacher.
A second teacher? Da Sol
receives extra lessons?
You didn't know?
Can't you tell when she
plays during your lessons?
It sounds totally different
when they receive other lessons.
Gosh, that's not a big deal.
They're just determined
to learn more
so they just receive
extra lessons.
I just let them be.
My name will be on their
profiles later anyway.
That's why they're
second teachers.
Their names aren't even printed
on the student profiles.
That's right.
But still, if they receive
lessons from someone else,
it's so obvious.
No matter how much I pretend
not to know, it's impossible.
My ears know it first.
Let's go back to the beginning.
If you look at the notes here,
the D-sharp alteration
ascends sequentially,
while the third note
which is an F
descends the other way.
Also, the A note and C note
are common notes between the
German 6th Chord and the Tonic.
So you can maintain these
notes on the same voice parts.
Okay. Let's wrap it up today.
Have a good day.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Song Ah.
- Yes?
I heard Joon Young played for Jung
Kyung at school a few days ago.
Yes.
Oh, so you knew about it?
Everyone is saying
they were so cool.
I saw them too.
Song Ah, wasn't she
the person who taught
you at her master class?
- Yes.
- Right, it's Lee Jung Kyung.
She's best friends
with Joon Young.
Do you know her?
Of course I do. She's the
daughter of Kyunghoo Group.
She was very famous
since she was young.
She was so talented and
pretty so people loved her.
She got her PhD at
Julliard lately.
My gosh, this is unbelievable.
What is it?
They wrote an article on
Kyu Hee's SBC interview.
She's entering the Tchaikovsky
Competition this winter.
The Tchaikovsky Competition?
Kyu Hee is really amazing.
If it were me, I'd never
enter another competition
after winning the Queen
Elizabeth Competition.
She might not do as well
as this competition.
Wait. What if Mr. Park enters
the Tchaikovsky Competition?
When I was in sixth grade,
I watched Park Joon Young's
Chopin Competition videos
and decided to become a pianist.
I'm so happy I won
the Queen Elizabeth
Competition this time.
I'm planning to enter next
year's Tchaikovsky Competition
MS. CHA
What? My mom?
Yes. I made it clear
I wouldn't do it.
Yes.
Okay, Young In.
Mom, it's me.
Did Mr. Park talk
about some TV show?
No, it's just that it's
something I should decide.
Why did you call Young In
about something like that?
It's nothing to be proud of.
You should've just
called me. Why did you
I just called
because Ms. Cha has been
with you for so long.
Don't call the foundation.
And if you need
anything, just ask me.
Okay.
- See you.
- Hey.
Do you keep in
touch with Hyeon Ho?
It's just that I
heard Hyeon Ho was
kicked out of Professor
Lee's chamber orchestra.
I wondered if you knew anything.
What do you mean?
The thing is, a lot of our
friends joined that chamber,
but Hyeon Ho was the only
one who was kicked out.
Professor Song and Professor
Lee's relationship
is so well-known to everyone,
so people were gossiping
that it was because of you.
What are you doing?
You're the one who didn't practice
and ruined today's lesson.
What's with the cocky attitude?
Get your bow re-haired
and let's talk at home.
Don't even think
of going to bed
before you fix what the
professor pointed out today.
Do you understand?
Excuse me.
Hello.
Hello.
It's so nice to see you here.
Yes, me too.
May I ask you a question?
Sure.
Ji Won has such a
fragile mentality.
I'm embarrassed to
tell anyone about it.
Professor Song just
compliments her all the time,
so everyone thinks
Ji Won wins all the competitions
she participates in.
But that's not true.
She either wins first
place or is disqualified
in the preliminary round.
I feel ashamed to
see Professor Song.
She's fine usually, but
when she gets nervous,
she's worse than
ordinary students.
I'm so sorry.
- Go ahead.
- Thank you.
It's an important call.
Excuse me.
Park Joon Young.
Why can't you get
attached to the music?
You're making me
uncomfortable and anxious.
What is it? What is the problem?
Goodness.
How can you enter the Tchaikovsky
Competition like this?
Did you see Kim Kyu
Hee's interview today?
She said you were her role
model. What will it look like
if you participate in the same
competition and she beats you?
Will you be able to handle it?
You better take care of it
and come to your senses.
- Okay.
- Play again.
Ji Won.
Can I ask you something?
When you're on stage,
why do you think you
become so nervous?
If you know the reason,
you may be able to find
a way to cope with it.
I'll give you a
few examples then.
You can choose.
Number one.
Because you didn't
practice enough.
Number one. Because there
are people watching.
And number three.
Because you're
scared of your mom.
Which one were you?
Kyung Seon.
Don't you feel sorry
for your daughter
who's holed up practicing
for hours a day?
Jung Kyung's only six years old!
- Just because she's talented
- I wouldn't do this for talent.
Jung Kyung's a genius. We
can't waste what she has.
Kyung Seon!
Are you really doing this
for Jung Kyung's sake?
Aren't you forcing your
unrealized dream onto her?
I don't care what you think.
I will do everything I
can to help Jung Kyung
spread her wings.
Why must she stop when she
has enough money and talent?
And number three.
Because you're
scared of your mom.
Song Ah, did you leave
something at home?
Why can't you concentrate?
What is really the matter?
Are you always so unfocused?
You decided to major in
music much later than others.
Then you must work
harder and better.
Try again.
- It's true that
- What?
I'm not that great at violin.
But I'm still
trying very hard.
Song Ah.
I don't care about that.
This is the music department.
You're graded and put in
line from best to worst.
You knew that
before you started.
Will you practice here today?
No. Today, I'll
practice at home.
I'm a bit tired.
You're not sick, are you?
I'm not.
It's so draining.
- I'm so tired.
- Me too.
It's your friend.
What?
The violinist who
always comes by.
She was right there.
Was she?
I heard the professor
chewed you out yesterday.
Listen.
HARMONICS, 2ND SEMESTER, 2020
The A note and C note are
common notes between the Tonic.
So you can maintain these
notes on the same voice parts.
MR. PARK SEONG JAE
Me?
I'm grateful for the offer,
but why me?
I should've thought of you sooner,
but I was so scatterbrained.
I heard a rumour that you
and Joon Young are dating.
Right?
I thought of you
as soon as I heard.
Let's cut out all
the personal talk.
You're good at what you
do and have common sense.
So I thought it would be great
if we could work together.
Well
Thank you for the offer,
but I can't play the violin
and work at the same time.
Not at the same time. It's
for after you graduate.
Aren't you going to
quit playing the violin?
I never considered giving up.
What
How many years have
you played the violin?
Pardon?
Not as a hobby. Starting from when
you prepared to major in music.
It's under 10 years, isn't it?
Yes.
I'm sorry to say
you can't beat
time. You know that.
They say you become an expert
if you devote 10,000 hours,
but ask all your friends.
I bet they exceeded 10,000 hours
of practice before they were 10.
They would have played the
violin for hours a day since
they were 4 or 5 and were
tutored by professors.
I'm also sorry to say that
you started too late in life.
Regardless of whether
you're good or bad,
you just can't catch up.
I get that you like music,
but I feel you need someone
who gives you realistic advice.
So I said it.
What?
It's confirmed?
Oh, you haven't
heard yet. Too bad.
I'm the confirmed representative
of the Korean branch,
so let's try to get along now.
Let's meet sometime soon.
We must discuss
the reality show.
Shall we meet with the producer?
No. I said I won't do it.
Why did you go to see my mother?
Why do you think?
I went to say hello.
She's the mother of
an artist I represent.
I might as well tell you now
that I met Chae Song Ah too.
Song Ah? What for?
You're dating her.
So I What's a manager for?
When did you two get so close?
What did you say to her?
Are you interrogating me?
I didn't say much.
What would I have to
talk about but you?
Joon Young.
Don't worry.
I didn't tell her
about your family.
Why would I say such things?
Anyway, let's set
a date to meet.
Bye.
"Why did you see her?
What did you say to her?"
Come on, drive.
SATURDAY CONCER
You're seated in order
of grades, right?
Don't come last in
your class then!
You started too late in life.
Regardless of whether
you're good or bad,
you just can't catch up.
You can't beat time.
SATURDAY CONCER
Song Ah.
THE NEXT EPISODE WILL AIR SOON
I heard
you met Mr. Park earlier.
Yes.
Did he say something unusual?
He's not
the type who talks gently.
I was worried he
might have upset you.
He just gave me
some good advice.
He said there are other
paths I can take
besides performing.
He said it's too
late realistically.
Other people have played
the violin for 20 years,
but I
haven't even played
half of that.
He said it's
practically impossible for
me to catch up to them.
And I don't even
have the talent
to overcome that
accumulated time.
Actually, I felt like
I was about to cry,
but what he said was so true,
so I just thanked him
for his advice.
TO VIOLINIST MS. CHAE SONG AH
Joon Young and I
go back 15 years.
Since we met too late
But I'm
just waiting.
Just like how Joon Young
waited for me all this time.
Since I started too late
Will the fact that I like him
TO VIOLINIST MS. CHAE SONG AH
not be enough to catch up
to the time that has
already been accumulated?
- Daejeon?
- Yes.
It's just a brooch.
I really wanted to buy it,
but it's always sold out.
Someone is selling one
that's almost brand new.
I've been scammed often while
buying used goods before.
So I just told her
I'll go get it myself.
Daejeon is even close
enough to commute.
Right, if you go now,
you'll be back before
the end of the day.
I'm so glad I have a smart
person like you working for me.
Daejeon?
SEORYEONG UNIVERSITY
Yes, Joon Young.
Where are you right now?
I'm in front of the school.
I'm waiting for the bus
to go to the bus terminal.
I'll take the three o'clock bus.
Why are you going to
Daejeon so suddenly?
Professor Lee
asked for a favour.
And you have to go to Daejeon?
It's regarding her
chamber orchestra
Oh, I see.
Hey.
If you go to Daejeon now,
will you be back by today?
Yes.
Then you'll probably
be back late.
It's okay. Some people
even commute to work
from Daejeon to Seoul.
Where is it in Daejeon?
- Yuseong-Gu?
- That's far from the terminal.
How do you know?
Oh, right. Did you say
you were from Daejeon?
Well, it's been too long
since I left Daejeon.
But I still know where it is.
Don't worry.
It's still in Korea, where
we speak the same language.
I'll be back in no time.
Are you practicing at
the foundation today?
No. I'm going to Jung
Kyung's place to practice.
Oh, right. You
said it was today.
That's my bus.
I need to go.
I'll see you tomorrow.
You have a visitor.
Okay.
Is that you?
I'm glad I didn't miss you.
What? Joon Young?
What are you doing here?
Didn't you go to practice?
No.
I didn't want to send
you alone, so I came.
Did you come alone?
What about your mom? Does
she know you came here?
My answer
is number three.
I'm so scared of my
mom and my professor.
It's not like I don't
like playing the violin.
I like it.
- But
- I know.
You're scared of your
mom and professor, right?
You're scared you won't
come in first place.
And you're scared what
others will think of you.
But still,
you like playing the violin
very much.
So you can't quit.
How did you know?
I was like that too.
I want to play the
violin with you.
I just came.
Kyung Seon.
I'm thinking of
you a lot lately.
I guess it's because I'm old.
Do you miss your daughter too?
She's starting to look
more and more like you.
She's grown up to
be very pretty.
I'M SORRY, JUNG KYUNG.
I'm sorry, Jung Kyung. I don't think
I can make it to practice today.
I'll call you tomorrow.
I got the money.
Have a good day.
Goodbye.
Professor Lee. She just
confirmed your payment.
Yes.
Yes, I'll bring it
with me tomorrow.
Bye.
Did it go well?
Yes.
Let's go now.
Okay.
But I didn't know how
much time it would take,
so I didn't buy a
ticket back to Seoul.
What about you?
A ticket? I didn't
buy one either.
I'm glad. Why are you smiling?
Let's go.
How about a simple dinner
near the bus terminal later?
I'm not going to
the bus terminal.
What?
Come on, let's go.
Why? Aren't we
going back to Seoul?
This is where I learned to play
the piano for the first time.
When I was six.
It used to be called
"Hanbat Piano" back then.
Until I moved to Seoul
in middle school,
I spent most of my time here.
I didn't have a piano at home.
MOZART PIANO SCHOOL
HANBAT PIANO SCHOOL
My parents were busy
because of the shop,
so I spent all
day in this place.
But I actually liked it.
Since there was no
one at home anyway.
I think that's why I even enjoyed
playing Czerny and Hanon's pieces
when all the other
kids hated it.
Why are you smiling?
It's just that I can't
imagine you playing
Czerny and Hanon's pieces.
Why? I even did all my homework.
Did you colour an apple
every time you played?
They were grapes.
Oh, grapes?
My elementary school
is near here too.
Joon Young.
- Yes, Professor Song.
- Hello.
Are you preparing
well for your recital?
- Yes.
- I'm glad.
By the way, when are you
going to join our chamber?
Oh, wait.
Did you say you wanted to
sponsor our concert first?
- Yes.
- I see. Then
my secretary will
give you a call
in a day or two.
Okay.
I really hope you
join our chamber soon.
Right, Jung Kyung?
Yes, ma'am.
Yes. Have a good day.
A lot of our friends
joined that chamber,
but Hyeon Ho was the only
one who was kicked out.
Professor Song
and Professor Lee's relationship
is so well-known to everyone,
so people were gossiping
that it was because of you.
When did you come?
Oh, you must be a friend.
Oh, yes. Hello, my
name is Chae Song Ah.
- Hello.
- She's my girlfriend.
Your girlfriend?
Oh, gosh. What do I
do? I was working.
It's okay. I didn't know
I'd meet you either.
It's nice to meet you.
We shouldn't stand
here like this.
Did you eat?
If you haven't had dinner yet,
you can come eat at our shop.
It's okay, we have
a bus to catch.
Why?
Your father isn't home
today. You should drop by.
- Come have dinner.
- It's okay.
Okay, we will.
Really?
Will it be okay?
Yes, sure.
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
I hope you enjoy it.
- You should eat with us.
- No, it's okay.
You can eat comfortably.
It's Joon Young's first time
bringing someone to Daejeon
and I felt so happy
and asked you to stay.
I'm sorry if I made
you uncomfortable.
I'm not sure if the food
will fit your taste.
Don't worry. I really
love Korean food.
Really?
The food is getting
cold. You should eat.
Thank you for the meal.
Can we get another order
of the bulgogi set?
Okay, sure.
- I hope you enjoy your meal.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
I know it's uncomfortable.
You're such a heartless
son, Joon Young.
We came all the way here
and even bumped into your mom.
How could we just leave?
You never even
brought a friend home.
No. It's my first time.
It's also the first
time feeling this way.
I'm hungry. Let's eat.
This looks delicious.
Eat all you want.
You should eat too.
Oh, Han Hyeon Ho?
Yes. He's a good cellist,
and I think there was
a misunderstanding.
So I asked to see you.
I know who he is.
I saw him at the master class.
It's not hard to invite him
back into my chamber orchestra.
But you, Jung Kyung.
Professor Song
retires this year.
If you take her place,
we'll have to face each other
for many years to come as
fellow teachers and colleagues.
I look forward to that.
Which is why I'd like
to suggest that
you sponsor my
chamber orchestra.
Then I'll think about
re-admitting Hyeon Ho.
I see you misunderstood.
- How so?
- I asked to see you today
because I thought he was
suffering unnecessarily
due to a misunderstanding.
- But?
- He's not someone
who should be made
hostage to make a bargain.
I almost got involved
and upset you in the process.
I'm sorry. Forget
that we met today.
Get back safely.
Come by again.
I will. I really
enjoyed dinner today.
Thank you.
Go on inside.
I will, after I see you off. Go.
Goodbye.
- Get home safely.
- I will.
Your mother's a great cook.
Song Ah.
Shall we have some tea?
I don't even know
when I saw my father
for the last time.
He's really nice
to other people.
He drinks a bit too much,
but he never gets into fights.
The problem is,
he keeps doing stuff.
He starts businesses
and invests somewhere.
I get that he wants
to do something,
but nothing
ever worked out.
For a while now,
I've been feeling as if
I play the piano to make
money to pay his debts.
The thought that
I don't ask others for help
and manage to pay for
everything myself
kept me going and I
put up with it all.
But that wasn't true.
Director Nah
and even Jung Kyung.
I recently found out that
they've been helping out.
I didn't expect to tell you
this when I tagged along today.
Thank you
for telling me.
I should thank you
for letting me talk.
Actually, I have
something to tell you too.
I'm not here
because of the
chamber orchestra.
Professor Lee bought
a second-hand brooch online.
She doesn't trust the seller,
so she sent me.
I wasn't sure if I should
do such errands too.
But I just bowed and
said okay and left.
So to be honest,
I bought the ticket
to Daejeon thinking
I really didn't
want to come here.
Right now,
I'm glad I came.
Thank you
for tagging along.
DO YOU LIKE BRAHMS?
WE'D LIKE TO THANK WOO HEE JIN
FOR HER SPECIAL APPEARANCE.
MOZART PIANO SCHOOL
Just seeing you
brings me down, Dad.
I don't want to live like that.
Your career as a
violinist ended long ago.
Why can't you accept that?
I can't tell Joon Young.
What should I do?
Here's my present.
- Chae Song Ah.
- Song Hee.
There's a big gap in talent.
People are talking about it.
Joon Young is a celebrity.
Nothing good will come from a
rumour that he has a girlfriend.
- What's wrong?
- Pardon?
- I'm sorry.
- Come here.
Come on.
It's okay.
