These are more than enough, right?
My conditions to entering the agency.
Are you really alright?
Not scalded?
I can't get the coffee stains off though.
Let me see.
Are you crazy?
You're treating me like I'm some kind of weirdo again.
It's fine, just lend me this.
I'd return it to you.
Where are you going dressed like this?
Wait,
I'd go get something for you change into.
Why did I decide to deliver coffee...
That punk,
we're all men, why is he so shocked?
He's so weird.
[Chapter 6]
You came at the right time, I was just about to discuss the showcase with you.
Before that, I need to say something.
I hope that you'd sign a singer.
Singer?
Who?
It's an urgent contract, just trust me.
1, 2, 3, 4
Chang Min ah
Didn't I ask you to shorten your breathing?
Because your breathing is so long,
you ended up being one beat short.
Start again, just Chang Min alone.
Chang Min ah, it's been a month already.
Why can't you change that habit?
From what I can see, it's because you didn't set your heart to do so.
If you're going to be so stubborn, why come for training?
Just sing however you want to.
Everyday telling us what to do, he deserve that.
What did I do?
Truthfully speaking, he's always ignoring us.
I'm upset.
-Please head to the meeting room. -Yes.
-Hello. -Hello.
Your showcase is to be this Saturday.
From the stage's concept, songs to choreography,
you have to plan it yourself,
and submit the proposal to me by Thursday.
Althought it's a survival stage,
I hope you'd put your best foot forward.
Don't disgrace M2 and the company.
Seems like that Ahjumma really hates us.
What 'disgrace'.
If it's this Saturday, we don't have much time left.
That's right,
but what does she mean by coming up with everything ourselves?
That means directing your own stage.
Directing a stage is also an ability,
and that means it's also a grading component.
Let's all do our individual stuff then.
Since we're a team, we have to brainstorm together.
Ji Seung Yeon, you're being funny again.
What brainstorming together, we're all competition.
Let's just plan according to our abilities.
However, we do have to discuss an overall stage concept don't we?
Seung Yeon's right,
be it individual performances,
we better discuss about the overall theme.
Enjoy.
Yes.
Pulling me out on the basis of buying good food for me, is spicy rice cake it?
This stall's spicy rice cake is delicious.
Thank you, for signing the contract.
Because I believe in Team Leader Han.
You have your reasons for doing so.
Fortunately, I thought Team Leader Han won't like it.
I'm wearing it based on the sincerity of the person who gifted it.
Just thinking about it makes me tremble with excitement.
Team Leader Han, what about you?
I'm nervous too.
But saying that suddenly...
Right, I know even Team Leader Han will feel like that.
I'm really curious
as to what kind of stages those kids will create,
really curious.
I'm not trembling out of anticipation,
but out of worry.
I dare them to mess it up.
That's enough, just go according to the theme of the MV.
We're all gathered here because our dream is to be a singer isn't it?
Anyway, the group theme shall be 'dreams',
and we'd do our own stuff.
Being a trainee for 7 years without debuting,
is that a dream or just your wishful thinking.
What? 'Wishful thinking'?
Then what about someone,
having learnt some vocal lessons, pretending to be good,
but can't even find the proper tempo.
What?
If you're worse than the people 'who's standards are lower',
it's not just 'wishful thinking', but 'disillusioned'.
What's up with you hyung?
What about me, I didn't say anything wrong.
Seriously speaking, that kid has always pretended to be almighty,
It's upsetting.
I feel the same way.
Truthfully, me too, a little.
Since our standards are different,
you guys with the higher standard just plan it on your own then.
Hyung!
Let him be.
What 'standard difference'?
Who's the one on the lower end exactly!
There's no way then,
you can't force someone who gave up volunteerily.
Just prepare as 7 people.
Alright. Just prepare as 7 people.
Alright.
Wait a minute,
Team Leader Han, cancel Junior's showcase.
-What? -President!
I've said it before,
till the end of the survival battle, all 8 of you belong to a team.
There's no meaning if only 7 is left, a team has fallen apart.
Cancel it immediately.
Why do we have to bring back a person who's already given up?
President Jang, what a joke.
It's because he treats Junior as a team.
Ji Seung Yeon,
you're speaking up for President yet again.
Do you have any relations with the President?
No, I just-
But where do we go?
Anyone knows Chang Min's address?
Jang Tae Kwon, it's always you.
If this showcase is cancelled because of you,
I won't forgive you.
What did I do?
You were just happy when he was gone too.
There's not much time left, come on.
Please to meet you.
I didn't tell you before right, I'm In Young sshi's fan.
I'm President Jang's fan too.
I've collected lots of pictures on President Jang.
Really? I'm honoured.
No need to be formal with me, you're my sunbaenim.
Alright.
I've already sent you the contract, have you seen it?
If you've got no problems with that-
Nope,
you missed out one clause.
He feels no regret because he comes from a good background,
so he could say those words.
Irritating.
He's not picking up his phone, and not returning home,
where the heck is that punk?
If this goes on, is our showcase really going to be cancelled?
Let's return to our dormitories, I need to go to some place first.
You want to release a duet album,
and with Woo Hyun?
Yes,
we've practiced together before our debut.
So you won't have to worry about not being able to match up.
In Young sshi!
A duet album within a family
is not a too much is it?
Just nice, after Woo Hyun's graduation,
he'd have to go on a solo or duo debut.
Who says he's graduating?
President, I'd talk to him about this-
It's not a bad thought.
President.
I just know President would understand me.
That's right.
I'm curious about Woo Hyun's reactions,
because he's such a picky person.
That punk,
how could he not realised that he left it here?
Not too bad.
Why are you here?
If I'm out, there's one less competitor, isn't that good?
I'm curious about something.
Why does hyung want to be in M2?
What?
Someone once asked me this,
but I don't know how to answer that.
True...
Seems like hyung can't answer that too.
The other hyungs waiting for hyung to come back to the dorms too,
aren't as pressing as Ji Woo.
Then don't destroy the other hyungs and Ji Woo's dreams.
What did I do?
Didn't I dropped out already?
Presidet Jang says that if hyung doesn't come back,
he'd cancel the showcase.
-What? -Tell me after you've decided.
Wait a minute.
What's up.
What 'what' when your sunbae calls.
What is it, I'm busy.
Come to my house now.
Now?
Yes, immediately.
Right now?
Hello, sunbaenim?
Do you know where I am, what within 5 minutes?
Truth be told, I don't need to know those kids' dreams,
but giving up halfway is a bruise to my pride.
And losing to you guys who are of a lower standard
is something that my pride won't allow.
Let's go together, hyung!
Looks like Professor Ji's daughter,
but why's she here?
I heard that she's studying in England.
How long is it now, why did you just reach?
You think I'm still ordered around by you?
Who are you raising your voice at?
Come on in.
Do you think I'd go in just because you said so?
Hurry up and come in!
Yes~
What's with this all of the sudden, are you mentoring me again?
Stop messing around and listen.
How's that?
Did sunbae compose that?
More accurately, you started it, but I completed it.
Why,
shocked that a lipsyncing singer could actually compose?
That's, because then-
So you call me over to boast of this?
That you've fully completed my half-written composition.
Seems like you're satisfied,
saying that it's fully completed.
Well, it's not too bad.
Filled it with lyrics and bring it back.
what, why should I?
When you sunbae says so, just do it.
Yes.
Come to the living room.
It feels good.
You punk, what's with your attitude,
why do you have to squeeze it like that?
Squeezing it like this,
can reduce wastage space while relieving stress.
Are you squeezing that by pretending that can's me?
How could I?
Sure, just climb on top of my head,
when you fall it'd hurt ten times worse.
Sunbaenim,
-I'm curious about one thing. -What?
Why don't sunbaenim smile?
What?
Because I've never seen sunbaenim smile before,
besides fanservice,
a sincere smile.
I smiled alot when you're not looking.
How could you say that I don't smile just because you've never seen it.
Then, when you see me next time, you should smile.
I feel that you'd be really handsome when you smile.
How dare you stare at your sunbaenim.
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
Because sunbaenim won't allow me to look.
Just look,
don't stare beyond 5 seconds.
Yes!
Let me ask you something too.
Ask away.
Is your orientation really, like that?
What, what?
I mean the last time I saw pictures of you in a dress.
After seeing that, I wonder if...
It's not like that!
I really like guys!
What?
No, I like girls!
No, I mean, I don't like wearing female clothing!
I'm not someone that judges others,
you can like guys.
I already said it's not like that.
I got it, just drink.
Don't you have more beer?
You punk sure like beer don't you?
No. You finished them all.
I saw that there's a convenient store downstairs.
So what?
Beer.
Aish!
That punk, to a sunbae!
How could I miss that in the first place?
Yah, let's play that game again, this time-
After letting your sunbae run around for you, yah!
It's not nice drinking on my own.
What guy looks so much like a woman?
And actually looks good.
What was I thinking?
That punk is a guy.
Is it because I haven't had a girlfriend for so long?
Yeah, I need to meet more girls.
Where the hell did you go?
Where did you sleep last night?
I didn't come back because I need to do something.
What about Chang Min hyung, is he back?
Are you not telling me the truth?
I spent the night at Woo Hyun sunbae's house.
What, are you mad?
Don't take it the wrong way, Woo Hyun sunbae treats me as a man.
I just fell asleep while drinking.
What if you got caught-
Didn't Seung Yeon say that he's not feeling well, is he fine now?
Eh, ah he's feeling better.
Yeah, a little.
Thanks for your concern.
Then let's start our practice after settling on a theme.
Yesterday, Tae Kwon's idea of using 'dream' as the concept seems pretty good.
No, until yesterday I thought that 'dream' is a good concept,
but I changed my mind after visiting someone's house.
Dream is something that's good if completed, but won't kill if not completed.
It's something for the people with a good fate.
I'm someone that would die if I fail to become a singer.
So to me, singing is not a dream,
but a reality.
So I thought it's more like a career to me.
What about this?
It's something I thought when we couldn't get to Chang Min hyung.
Although we were a team,
we don't know each other well.
So let's use 'introduction to ourselves' as a theme.
Use something that we'd know best to showcase our abilities,
and introduce ourselves to the audience.
I agree.
Hnn, it sounds pretty good.
It's good.
It's cool.
Okay.
Alright.
Who said I'm doing a duet with her?
What's bad about there, we're in the same company after all.
Same company?
In Young entered our company?
How do I explain this-
I don't think it's something bad.
Not long ago, Hyunah and Jang Yoon Sung also did a successful duet.
President.
I can't control who the company contracts with,
but stay out of my album decisions,
unless you don't wish to work with me anymore.
You should know what In Young truly wants don't you?
She wants to start over with Woo Hyun's popularity.
I know.
You say that even when you knew?
Do you want Woo Hyun to leave?
The one who brought In Young over is Team Leader Han isn't it?
That's because-
We've already did the signing, In Young is considered part of the family now.
We have to help if our family wants to start over again, isn't it?
President is right about that,
but leave Woo Hyun out of it.
Even if it's for the company, you have to think, who is more important.
Who's more important, is it?
Come to pick me up from the company immediately.
What do you want?
From your look, you knew what I want exactly,
why are you asking anyway.
Oh In Young!
I don't care the reason you entered our company,
I don't want to know either.
This is an old duet song we made,
have you forgotten?
Don't use these kind of low tricks to get close to me,
you disgust me.
How do I sing it exactly-
Seems like we'd have to continue the conversation next time.
Shouldn't you guys greet your sunbae?
We're going to be a family in the future.
-Hello. -Hello.
Everyone's so cute, as expected of Woo Hyun's hoobae.
I'm sorry, hyung.
I never thought you'd be here, I'm really sorry.
Stay out of it.
Daebak, you guys saw that right?
The two were so close too.
Then, isn't it Woo Hyun sunbae that introduced In Young sunbae to the company?
The two are in such a relationship that's why-
Are we not practicing?
What, why is he so angry?
Kang Woo Hyun, you shouldn't have messed with me in the first place.
This is my last chance.
I have to start over even if I end up trampling on you.
~Where is my road heading to~
~Where exactly are you bring me, where exactly is it~
~I don't actually know, don't know, don't know~
~but I'm trying hard to walk forward today.~
~I made the song~
~so I thank you, thank you, thank you~
~and I love you, love you, love you~
~Without knowing~
~I've lost my strength to even cry~
~Somewhere over the rainbow~
~That woman that I chosed~
~I will start finding my own dream!~
~Spreading my wings as I fly freely in this world~
~Be it singing or dancing, I'm a beautiful butterfly~
~Spreading my wings as I fly freely~
Eat it all up, eat all you want, and gather yourself together!
Yes!
I'm eating well!
Dong Woo yah, you'd eat lesser.
President, can you add 3-person's worth of meat?
Ahjumma, please add 3-person's worth of meat.
Yes.
Why does this kid [affectionate term] eat so much?
Nonono,
I mean that Seung Yeon is so small,
Let's eat.
But who will be the showcase's audience?
We're accepting applicants form the company's homepage,
those that applied should come.
Are there many that applied?
Only 150 people?
Is this like it? We're performing two days later.
Well, we are unofficial singers.
But that number's too low!
Our fanclub members have at least over a thousand,
this is just too mean.
I have to do something about it,
let me post something in Junior's fanclub.
Don't.
What?
What are you going to write?
We're having a showcase to in light of M2 graduates,
please come and watch?
Don't you know what kind of existance we are to the M2 fans?
True, to M2 fans,
we're the bad guys that are trying to kick out their precious oppas.
Shit, is there anything that's simple?
No matter what, if we prepared the performances well,
our sincerity should touch their hearts.
Yep, I've even sung in front of a 3-men audience.
I think that numbers aren't important.
Yeah, even if there's only 1 fan in the audience,
we'd still need to put our best foot forward.
Call them to double-check,
make sure they won't turn up at the showcase.
That's right, only when they see an empty audience,
will they see their reality.
What?
There's news about Woo Hyun graduating from M2?
What news is that?
It's headline news, isn't he having a duet album?
No, that's just a wrong announcement. Tell everyone to keep calm first.
Yes, I got it.
[In Young - Woo Hyun, preparing for a duet album]
Looks like a report sent in by In Young noona.
Ah, what is wrong with that noona?
Last time there was an entertainment interview that I reject right?
Yes, you said you were tired.
Get all the previously rejected interviews back for me,
those that could be broadcasted immediately.
Yes!
[Kang Woo Hyun and Oh In Young duet]
Seems like we'd have to continue the conversation next time.
[Bad guy]
Oh, Tae Kwonnie,
What, to hyung, of course not.
I'm hanging up, hyung's having an interview soon.
What is it?
Nothing.
Is the interview team not coming soon?
They said they're reaching.
Just say it.
No, their showcase is tomorrow,
but the audience seems to be pretty empty.
Too few people applied.
So?
He asks if you could write something on the homepage like the last time.
I've already rejected!
The kids can't even find people themselves.
But this is also because hyung's fans hates Junior too much.
I'm sorry, we were caught in a traffic jam.
Hello, it's been a while.
Yah, why isn't there any decent TV show recently.
They're all CFs.
Oh, what?
Yah, come over quickly!
Seung Yeon Seung Yeon,
Seung Yeon Ji Woo, come over.
It's probably a misreport when In Young sunbae signed with our company.
That's not true.
So what will happen when Woo Hyun, you graduate from M2?
That would be handled by the company,
but they would definitely take into account the hearts of the fans.
Oh, last but not least, say something to your fans.
Erm, I'm thankful that you fans are always believing and supporting me.
I need your support for one more thing.
Tomorrow afternoon, my hoobae M2 Junior are having a showcase at the company,
I hope that everyone will support our hoobae with the same heart when you support M2.
I'd of course turn up for tomorrow's showcase.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
It's Team Leader Han.
Just ignore her.
Kang Woo Hyun, what are you thinking?
We've broke the thousand mark!
If this goes on, they'd have to come in base on first-come-first-served basis.
One sentence from Woo Hyun is more powerful than a hundred official announcements.
Woo Hyun hyung too, I told him to do that.
I realise that he treats me really well.
Why is he so good to me?
It's finally tomorrow.
Let's go to bed early so that we can prepare for tomorrow.
Can we do a hwaiting first?
Why not?
Let's do a hwaiting! Here,
M2 Junior, hwaiting!
Team Leader Han, do something about it.
As I said,
what can I do if Woo Hyun refuses?
Are you really going to do this to me?
Is it okay even if Woo Hyun got hurt?
If this is exposed, would Woo Hyun be the only one who got hurt?
In Young you, would suffer a loss too isn't it?
Do you think there's anything I could lose?
I'm Oh In Young,
the troublemaker that's pushed to the brink, Oh In Young.
I heard that the company has a performance today,
Woo Hyun should be there too right?
Hwaiting!
Let's go.
We can do it together!
Kwon Ji Woo, can you stop trembling,
you're making me nervous.
Yes, that, can I go to the bathroom?
Go then.
Ah, what do I do with him,
it's the tenth time he's headed to the bathroom.
Hello.
Yes, that's my grandmother.
Hospital?
How badly hurt is she?
Yes, I'm going there now.
Ji Woo- no,
If Ji Woo knows about grandmother being hurt, he'd get even more nervous.
Noona, I'm leaving for a while,
prepare Ji Woo first.
I got it.
Oh, isn't that the pervert?
Where's that punk going,
the showcase's starting soon.
That's right.
-What are you doing, catch up. - Yes!
Did Seung Yeon went ahead first?
I think so.
Ah, you better hurry up and get ready.
Yes, I'm sorry.
Where is patient Kim Bok Soo located?
No. 3 bed.
Grandmother, are you alright?
Aigoo, Seung Yeon, why are you here?
It's almost time for the showcase.
I was afraid that I'd shock Ji Woo so I didn't tell him before I came.
He was already trembling to death.
That's right, you did well about this.
But don't waste your time here, hurry back to the showcase.
Are you really alright?
Didn't you get into a motorbike accident?
The doctor says I'm fine, just a slight crack.
With my leg in this condition, I can't make it to the showcase anymore,
you better hurry back!
I'm sorry.
I'd be back after the showcase.
Alright, hurry.
Run!
- Sunbaenim. - Keep quiet and follow me.
Is he not picking up?
Yeah.
That's weird, he's suppose to be here earlier than me.
Oh, it got through.
Yah, Ji Seung Yeon, where are you?
What? Yes...
What is it, where is her?
He left the handphone in the make-up room.
Aish, has that kid gone crazy?
It's almost time for the showcase, where the heck is he?
Is he doing it on purpose?
You know that punk isn't someone like this stop your nonsense.
It could be something urgent.
Let's go in.
M2 M2...Woo Hyun Woo Hyun...
Are you guys ready?
Go in according to the lineup.
Let's go!
M2 M2...
~Can I live after leaving my heart behind~
~There's no feeling of any good~
~No strength to wipe my tears, no strength to breathe~
~I feel helpless about this~
~You should be crying silently~
~suffering more than me right~
~If there's ever a 'next time'~
~I would not let this love pass me again~
~All the happiness I've had in my life added together~
~would not be as good as the short time we had together~
~How can I forget you, how can I tolerate~
~I pray that time will pass by faster~
~I know that I could smile facing love~
What should I do, the showcase must have started already.
Since you're worry, why did you come?
What to do, grandmother got hurt!
Your grandmother?
No, Ji Woo's grandmother.
It's the same as mine.
We've lived before when we were younger, and we're close.
That, can you be a bit faster?
- Hurry up. - Yes!
Yah, just stay still.
What's with all the sighing for?
If I screw this up, sunbaenim, you would be happier wouldn't you?
Then you could continue to stay in M2 like you wanted, and kick all of us out.
- What? - Isn't it, I saw the interview.
Isn't it that company will handle it,
and you don't want the fans to be disappointed?
That's right, if you guys screwed the showcase and got kicked out, it's best for me, how's that?
To a hoobae...I just knew it!
What, you pervert punk!
~I just felt it today~
~That you belong to me~
~From the first time I saw you~
~I can't forget you ever again~
~Wow, oh oh oh~
~I don't know if the person's good or not~
~Just trembling like a psycho~
~Even though my heart will decide for me~
~All I can see is the light that stems from my love~
~Wow, oh oh oh~
~That woman that I chose~
~I'd believe in her~
~That night when I made my choice~
~She might be the love of my life~
~Or maybe just a psychotic love~
~Or a long lasting love~
Erm...
What?!
We've reached!
Seriously.
~Just seeing one of your actions, I almost got into an accident~
~I'm loving you like mad, confessing it to you~
~My hands won't stop trembling~
~Without noticing, I'm drooling~
~Don't misunderstand, don't panic~
~It's my fate, I can't ignore it~
~Be it by chance or by fate that I appear in front of you~
~Password and those stuff, leave it in the bank~
~That woman that I chose~
~I'd believe in her~
~That night when I made my choice~
What are you doing, why aren't you coming in?
I can't do it!
Hurry and get up the stage!
I really can't do it.
Yah, you! Aish.
I don't care anymore, go up.
Sing, start singing...
~It's not that easy~
~The world won't act in your desire~
~Fight hard, fight hard, that's what life's about~
~Can't you see how I look~
~My determination, can't you see it as well~
~I'm going to do everything~
~Even if I explode or pushed to my limits~
~I'm that caterpillar~
~As the winter days are approaching~
~The tired days will come to an end too~
~When the spring wind blows~
~I'd find myself!~
~Spreading my wings as I fly freely in this world~
~Be it singing or dancing~
~I'm a beautiful butterfly~
~Spreading my wings as I fly freely in this world~
~Be it singing or dancing~
~I'm a beautiful butterfly~
~wow oh~
~I've once dream about it~
~In this tough pathway of life~
~The precious you that never stopped supporting me~
~It was once very interesting~
~Even if it's for that one moment~
~You've never stopped me before~
~We were too greedy for time~
~On the days when the moonlight shine~
~I've got a dream~
~I believe in guarding my dream~
~Flying with my best~
~In this world~
~The me that wanted to give up~
~I lightly spread my wings~
~And now I can freely~
~Fly amidst the clouds, forever~
~I'd fly to greater heights~
~I'd sing at the top of my voice~
~Just for my heart~
~Showing it to the world~
~Fighting hard on Earth~
~Even if I fall~
~I would never give up~
~Heading towards my shining dream~
~my dream~
It's my first time hearing this,
did he did it himself?
Oppa I love you...
What are you doing, get off.
I need to talk to you.
To your house, or mine's fine too.
Get out.
Get off!
Wait, why do I have to shy away,
it's not like I've done something wrong.
Who asked you to kiss right there?
Aish, that bad guy.
Follow me.
Where are we going?
You owe me something.
Debt?
That song, was made by me,
why the hell is that guy singing it before me?
- What? - I made it didn't it?
Without my permission, don't sing it with other people.
What do you mean?
Haven't you heard of 'copyrights'
Yes, I'm sorry.
Sing.
Right now.
Of course, when the composer ask you to sing you should sing.
~I've once dream about it~
~In this tough pathway of life~
~The precious you that never stopped supporting me~
~It was once very interesting~
~Even if it's for that one moment~
I started dating In Young back in middle school. ~Even if it's for that one moment~
I started dating In Young back in middle school.
I think it was when I was going out with her.
That time, I really liked her.
So when she left,
I really thought I could die.
It was so hard,
that the only thing sustaining me was the need to revenge,
to become a better star than her.
To make her regret leaving me.
Where did she go, Ji Seung Yeon, Seung Yeon ah!
I don't know why am I telling you this, seriously.
You need a friend with a listening ear.
With sunbae's personality, you don't have any friends.
Yeah, so what?
Seriously, now I'm jealous of Ji Woo that punk.
Ehh, no choice, from now on I'd comfort you.
What?
When you need a friend, I'd be your friend.
So from now on, I'd be sunbae's friend no.1
You punk.
[Preview]
Ji Seung Yeon, what are you doing here,
let's go now.
What's this,
isn't this our showcase?
It looks pretty good.
They were saying if Seung Yeon and Ji Woo are women.
That's true, I'm getting messed up too.
What's going on with the album concept?
I got no plans to do a duet album with you,
so don't worry about it.
Are we going to run to the Han River?
My legs are giving up on me!
With this kind of stamina, how are you going to dance?
Team mission?
4 to a team, split into two teams for this mission.
the team would never change, so stick with it and work together.
Do you have some time?
Go on a date with me.
What?
Got any plans tonight?
Team Leader Han says that you have to turn up for tonight's schedule.
You're late.
