Shut Up! Flower Boy Band
Episode 8
There are only two contracts,
for the main vocals Kwon Ji Hyuk and guitarist Lee Hyun Soo.
The rest of the members will have to go through auditions.
Are you kidding?
For a rookie, those aren't bad terms.
Then... what about us?
Rather than wasting your time here with pointless hopes,
you're better off quitting at this point.
That's a better decision for us as well as for you guys.
In the end, what you're telling us is to ditch our friends, isn't it?
Then, did you think you were going to be together forever?
No band like that exists.
Oasis, Queen, The Beatles,
in the end they all broke up.
If we don't want to, then what?
Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about it.
I'll give you some time to think about it.
There's no need.
Let's go.
Everyone is like that in the beginning.
Are you making music because you like your friends,
or do you have friends because you want to make music?
Think hard about that.
If you change your mind, feel free to contact me anytime.
That won't happen.
It's been a while, Sunbae.
There's a band I'd like you to check out.
I knew it was too good to be true.
That witch, what is she trying to pull?
So I guess our contract is out the window now.
Hey, hey, forget it!
We've never cared about contracts or whatever.
This was a waste of our time.
Let's go. Let's go. Quick.
Sheesh.
Episode 8
Oh, hey, hey, hey! How did it go?!
What did they say? Did they say they'll release an album?
How much is the contract fee? How much did they say they'll pay you?
Come to think of it, I'm kind of curious too.
How much would she have given us?
Why? Is the pay too little?
Is that why you guys are like this?
Hey! It's always like that in the beginning!
It's great to start off at a major entertainment company.
I heard that woman has enough pull to make you guys famous.
Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
What are you doing here anyway?
What do you mean? It's a milestone day for Eye Candy.
Of course I came to celebrate with you guys.
What's with you guys?
It's because this milestone day has already crumbled to pieces.
What?
That witch wanted to split us up.
She only wanted to sign Ji Hyuk and Hyun Soo.
That's crazy, right?
Really?
But, our leader is loyal.
He tore up the contract like this in front of her.
He tore up the contract?
We should have caused a scene back there,
but Ye Rim is under that witch.
I held back for my Ye Rim goddess' sake.
Hey! Are you really friends?
What's wrong with splitting up temporarily?
Once Ji Hyuk gets famous, do you think he'll act like he doesn't know you guys?
No, that's not it.
You should be grateful that even one of you is getting out of this place.
Do you know you're holding Ji Hyuk back?
Why don't you guys use your brains?
Do you guys care about anybody besides yourselves?
That's enough.
Are you asleep?
[Lee Hyun Soo - Contract]
Hubby, it looks like our Hyun Soo is signing with a big company.
Is our Hyun Soo really going to become a singer?
Ji Hyuk!
What are you doing?
Do you want to eat a hard-boiled egg?
You want me to eat an egg on the street when it's this cold out?
If you're hungry then you could eat it.
Okay, I guess so.
Give it to me.
You, really!
Why is it always me who gets hit?
It stopped.
What?
Your hiccups.
It really did.
You just made my crappy mood a little better.
Your mood? Why?
It wasn't good?
No, it's nothing.
It's cold, let's go home.
[Seung Hoon’s Trademark Class Notes]
- Eye Candy is awesome. - They are so cool!
When is their album coming out?
I heard they already got a contract.
Really? Then they'll be famous soon.
Should we get their autographs before they get too famous?
- Let's go! - Let's go!
Are you okay?
- I’m so jealous! - Those Eye Candy oppas spoke to you!
What a bunch of showoffs.
That's the power of ketchup*. (*referring to Hyun Soo's bloody hand)
Who let them sign a contract?
It wasn't your sister who signed them, right?
Are they going to become celebrities?
I'm so tired.
With the girls all over me even at school,
I won't have any time to rest now.
If they find out we haven't signed a contract,
I'm sure they'll ignore us again.
Seriously, you jerk.
Are you blaming it on us?
But are we really dragging you guys down?
What are you saying?
That woman has no eye for talent.
Hey, Hyun Soo didn't play his guitar well,
that's why we didn't get to finish playing.
That witch didn't get a chance to hear my awesome bass skills.
So you're saying it's my fault.
We were all playing together,
so why did you make it and not me?
Because I stayed up all night practicing
and you stayed up all night clubbing.
So what? I don't deserve to get a contract?
What's wrong with you?
That's right, you're showing your true colors now.
Tell the truth, you punk.
You're really dying to debut, aren't you?
Yes, I want to.
What's wrong with that?
Then you guys go ahead and sign!
Is there anyone stopping you?!
Who's asking you to think about us?
Stop it.
Do jjang, where are you going?
Why are you guys acting like this?
You sure know how to make me feel deflated.
Really?
I thought you wanted to hear that song.
That's exactly your problem.
You don't consider what the other person wants.
You just do what you want.
Isn't that more convenient?
Yes, it used to be.
I'm returning these to you.
This...
I'm sorry, I lost yours.
So you bought a new one?
Did you use the money from your part time job?
I lost it, so of course I had to buy a new one.
Did you think I'd feel good about taking this?
I won't accept anything you give me from now on.
What do you mean?
I didn't realize before how much I accepted from you.
You lent me your notes before exams.
When I wanted to listen to music, you'd play for me.
When I wanted to watch a movie you would take me.
I accepted all of this without a second thought.
But I can't do it anymore, no matter what it is.
Why?
Because I can't accept your heart.
I'm really grateful and happy about what you said.
I mean it.
Is it because you found someone else you like?
I think I have.
Ji Hyuk.
Yeah?
Don't miss out on such a great opportunity because of us.
You should sign the contract.
Don't you remember what that jerk Byung Hee said?
Glastonbury.
He said we have to play on that stage together.
I'll take the mic.
Hyun Soo will play the guitar.
But who will play the drums?
I can only sing if you're the one playing the drums, you jerk.
If we want to show the world Byung Hee's songs,
then we need that witch.
Either way, we run together.
- Let's go. - Where?
What do you mean where?
No matter what, we have to start running.
What? Now what do you want?
I was having a great time.
The 5 of us have to get a contract then we'll show the world Byung Hee's songs.
What? How?
You want us to go beg that witch?
You guys don't have to worry about us.
That woman hasn't seen a true performance from us.
Let's show her what we can do.
If she says the same crap again, then okay, we'll give up cleanly.
How's that sound?
You're going to give up that easily?
What the...?!
You scared me! I thought it was a ghost. Is that a person?
Do you have any booze stashed around here?
Ahjussi, who are you?
How could you just wander into someone else's place?
Hey Ji Hyuk, isn't that Rock Kim?
You country bumpkins, have you seen a ghost or something?
- How did you get in here? - I heard there were some alley cats
worth checking out so I came by.
But it looks like the show is over and you're splitting up.
That's not true. We're not splitting up!
Do whatever you want.
There's no booze and no fun, I'm out of here.
Oh, if you're breaking up and want to sell your instruments, let me know.
I'll get you a place that'll give you a great deal.
Hey, Ahjussi.
I don't know if you're Rock Kim or whoever
but don't talk like you know everything when you don't have a clue.
That's crap. Who says we're finished?
You've got some mouth on you.
It's cold, it's cold.
It's da*n freezing.
I heard he's kind of crazy. Is it true?
What's all this?
It makes no sense for him to be in Korea.
Is it just someone who looks like him?
You think?
Yeah, why would Rock Kim come here anyway?
That's right.
Hey, forget it.
If we don't want to split up and sell our instruments like that ahjussi said,
then we have to work our butts off, do or die.
Well...
If we have to do our best and do or die or whatever,
what's there to think about?
We'll just do or die.
Yeah, I hate people who give up without giving it a shot.
I hate feeling like I'm dragging someone down too.
I just want a fair shot!
Then we have to work twice as hard,
if we don't want to hear the same things from that woman again.
- Of course! - Of course we will!
That was so many "of courses. "
Okay, let's rally one more time.
This one is Byung Hee's hand.
Okay, shut up...
And run!!
Let's go eat!
Hyungnim, please help me become the best bass player!
I'm heading out.
- Come on, let's go! - Hey, what are you doing?
Please help me!
The food is getting cold, you punk!
- What’s he saying? - Teacher!
Yes, Director Park. How are you?
You want Eye Candy on your program?
Oh, I don't know.
They haven't released a single yet.
We're not in a rush to put them out there.
Yes, yes.
Those punks, they need more fire.
The poor kids always band together.
Band together? You're bringing tears to my eyes.
Hey, what did you just say?
What did I do?
About the poor people...
We weren't talking to you, Teacher.
Since you’re from crap hole Dongnae, do you have an inferiority complex?
You punk, you need to be taught a lesson.
Oh dear, haven't you been able to memorize our school rules yet?
Regulations, section 1, article 7, teachers are also penalized for corporal punishment.
What, you punk?
You seem to be feeling pretty secure
since you aligned yourself with 10th grade Teacher Jang,
but then, you should have aligned yourself with 12th grade Teacher Kim.
That's who has the real power.
What are you guys?
I'm your teacher, you punks!
What? Are you going to punch me?
Where do you think you're from?
You punk!
You punk, come here! You punk...
You punk! Let go of me!
Kwon Ji Hyuk, let go!
- Get rid of those phones! - Get lost!
Hey, come with me to the office.
Hurry up, you punks!
What's going on? Are the dolphins and the teacher on the same team?
Is it true that you're going to sign Eye Candy?
Yes, I'm planning to make something of them.
Why does it have to be Eye Candy?
Because you can't do it.
I don’t have the confidence to go against Dad's wishes.
What are they?!
They're just a bunch of kids playing with their instruments.
That's what I like about them.
Knowing how to have fun is a talent in itself.
How can you say that to me?
What's wrong with my brother?
Hey, the way you're acting is making me even greedier.
You see something special about them too, right?
I'll see you at home.
Hey.
Let's give that witch from HR Entertainment a call
and show her what we’re made of!
Can we really do that?
Let's practice some more, just one more day.
What difference is one more day going to make?
Let's hurry up and settle this.
That's right, let's get going right now!
That will no longer be necessary.
It's been hard on you guys.
It's good to see you guys having fun.
What's going on?
Why are we getting so many surprise visitors lately?
Then, will you sign all 5 of us officially?
Do you think the witch is a pushover?
Let's release this song as a single first.
Don't be so surprised.
Come to the office tomorrow and we'll have five contracts drawn up.
Yeah!
Woo...
- Woohoo! - Woohoo!
Woohoo!
Yeah!
Did you listen to all of us properly?
Kyung Jong's keyboard,
Ha Jin's bass and my drums...
I want to know whether you acknowledge our skills now.
Skills?
These punks, they were crazy dogs.
They're pretty good.
Don't think about splitting them up.
How did I know?
You're all right up here but you're lacking in here.
Sunbae.
There are times when the heart wins out over the brain.
You can consider it an acknowledgement of your skills.
Awesome!!
Hold on. Your parents must be present when the contracts are signed.
Please bring them with you.
- Our parents? - Our parents?
Parental presence is required when minors are involved.
That's the most basic of fundamentals.
Well, then.
This is so annoying.
Are we a bunch of school kids?
I have to bring my mother?
I’ve got the worst of the lot.
We just need to be embarrassed once then we can release a single.
So what can we do?
That's right, what’s wrong with releasing a single?
I thought everything was over for us because we bombed the competition.
This feels awesome!
Ji Hyuk!
Oh.
Here.
What is this? A late night snack?
And this too!
Yes, I got you back!
Hey!
Woo Kyung, it looks like you put some thought into your appearance.
- You want to die? - You're dead once I catch you!
You're dead once I catch you!
What are you two doing?
Why haven't you guys gone home?
Woo Kyung wanted to throw a celebration party, you punk!
You two look like you're playing catch me if you can.
Why did you two come out together?
She needed to borrow something.
That's right, that's all.
Let's go in.
Why don't you come in too, Soo Ah?
Why are you inviting her to our celebration party?
What's wrong with that?
Soo Ah was Byung Hee's muse.
Isn't that good enough reason to invite her to the party?
I'm getting sick of hearing her called muse all the time.
You better go.
- Come with. Come, come. - What are you doing?
Bye, Soo Ah!
I bought delicious food.
Let's go, let's go.
Aren't you going in?
You saw it too, right?
What?
Ji Hyuk was smiling.
He's never smiled at me like that.
They're probably only friendly because they're neighbors.
Then why do I feel so uneasy?
Let's go in.
Look at this...
Look at this. Look at this.
They're going nuts in the forums.
What is this?
They're saying that Silva is a violent teacher,
so the students are refusing to go to class.
I felt uneasy about it from the start.
They’re calling him a violent teacher over this?
They’re the ones who started the fight first.
It's pretty obvious.
Anyway, just like us, Silva doesn't fit in at this school either.
It's bye bye for Silva.
Hey, but I feel sad about it.
This pisses me off a bit.
Do you want him following us around for the rest of our lives?
Well... not to that extent.
Ji Hyuk, have you contacted your mom?
They said you can't sign without your parents present.
I don't know.
I'll go.
Hey, Silva's walking by. Silva's walking by.
The students on the forums are saying you're an abusive teacher..
I'm near death having to answer all these calls from the students' parents.
I'm sorry.
I have to stay at this school.
I have to pay my daughter's tuition and support my family.
This time, could you please...
I'll do what I can about it for now.
Thank you, thank you.
Take a six month leave.
But...
you mean... for something like this... I...
Something like this? That student is Assemblyman Park's son.
You hit him and the incident was recorded and released on the internet.
Did you honestly think that it'd get swept under the carpet?
But those kids were disrespectful, how could I stand by and do nothing?
I'm a teacher.
That's why there is a demerit system.
Not only did you not deduct points from those who deserved it,
but you went and hit those who were minding their own business.
I'll see you in six months’ time.
Wow, it's really big.
Hyun Soo, I heard there's a recording studio here too.
I only needed one of you to come. Do you have to act like this here?
Does it not hurt anymore?
I'm really sorry about that time.
What do you think you're doing?
You can play the guitar, right?
It's not hindering you, right?
Are you Kim Ye Rim the singer?
Yes.
I'm your fan.
- May I have your autograph? - Mom, stop it.
Right, I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Why didn't you call me afterwards?
Why would I call you?
I'm thankful that you're all right.
Goodbye.
Yes.
What was she thanking you for?
I don't know. I don't know. let's go, let's go.
What's going on?
Look at this.
Wow.
Let go. It's embarrassing!
Aigoo.
- This is great! - Let go.
Do Il, are yours coming?
What's with your clothes? So embarrassing.
In front of you are the contracts for the five members of Eye Candy,
which outlines their single and all promotional activities
they'll participate in with our company.
Please let me know if you have any questions after you've read it over.
Make sure to ask about anything you don't understand.
I've already spoken to my son about that.
I told him to listen to you just like he listens to his mother.
Mother?
Even though my son looks like this,
he really listens to his mother.
- Please take care of him. - Stop it... Stop.
- Yes. - Mom, stop.
Our Ha Jin actually has the qualities of an actor.
I mean look at his face, does he look like someone who plays guitar?
- Yeah, that's right... - Right, right?
Noona, it's not a guitar, it's a bass.
Right, that one...
Isn't the image very important these days?
Right, the image!
From now on, our Ha Jin will be the face of Eye Candy.
- Yes, Ha Jin is perfect for that. - Please take good care of his skin
and his fashion style.
Please take care of him, okay?
Can't we do it together?
Our son has wanted to become a singer since he was little.
He's good at the guitar and he can sing and dance too.
Dad, what are you doing?
We'll find out how talented he is soon enough.
Yes.
This is the first time my son has asked me a favor,
so I was obligated to come.
It seems he isn't joking around.
He says he's determined to do this
so I'm sure he'll back up his words with actions.
Can everyone else please sign the contracts.
Do you get it? Just sign it and then go home quick.
You punk, I get it! I get it!
Don't yell.
This is Kwon Ji Hyuk's mothers' agreement.
The lawyer sent it over.
Also, please take a look at this.
[Genius Songwriter, Finally Reveals Identity!]
Isn't this Seung Hoon? [Genius Songwriter, Finally Reveals Identity!]
- Isn’t that Seung Hoon? - It's really Seung Hoon!
- Ryu is Seung Hoon? - Oh, my.
- This is unbelievable. - Seriously.
- Oh, my God. - He's really cool.
- Really. - Wow.
He's really cool.
Genius songwriter? Wow...
Did you know about it?
What?
That Seung Hoon is the genius songwriter, Ryu.
You already knew?
Yeah.
Fine, it was just me who didn't know.
You hid this from me. Are you really my friend?
Then do you know about Eye Candy signing their contract?
Contract?
What? I guess you don't need to know about that.
That's not important.
That song I always sing at the noraebang,
I was so touched by it I cried, did you see me?
I did.
But you still hid the truth that it was Seung Hoon's song from me?
It's not that.
Seung Hoon didn't want anyone to know.
It seems there are no secrets between you two.
But how did you find out about it?
So basically the difference between Eye Candy and Strawberry Fields,
is like the difference between a black hole and a mouse hole.
You don't have to say it like that.
Seung Hoon is an acknowledged songwriter.
He could have become a hallyu star if he had debuted as a singer-songwriter.
Also to be honest, who listens to bands these days anyway?
Dad is furious about this, what are you going to do?
Noona, I don't know if you're afraid of Dad or not,
but I'm not.
From now on,
I won't hide the things I want
and the things I want to do.
Wow, Yoo Seung Hoon...
I knew you wrote songs,
but this really blew me away.
How could you hide it from us too?
Does this mean you're going to debut now?
That's right.
What should I prepare first?
This is getting fun.
I'm going to debut alone.
- What? - By yourself?
Then what about Strawberry Fields?
It will become a high school memory for me.
Are you saying you don't need us anymore?
Hey, Yoo Seung Hoon, are you betraying us right now?
This is not a road you guys can share with me.
Starting now, I'm going to fight for real.
That's so you.
What? Is this all we mean to you?
Then do you know about Eye Candy signing their contract?
Why are you inviting her to our celebration party?
I'm getting sick of hearing her called muse all the time.
You better go.
For Eye Candy's bright future, cheers!
Yoo Seung Hoon...
is that songwriter, Ryu?
Hey you punk, do you have to bring that up now?
You're making me lose my appetite.
So there's a reason for him to be so stuck up.
Is it touching to you?
Don't mess with a dog when it's eating! Want to get whacked with a drumstick?
His father is a millionaire.
With his copyrighted songs,
he can pretty much coast through life, that punk.
Wow, lucky for Soo Ah.
Aren't Soo Ah and Seung Hoon going out?
She already said they're not, didn't she?
Punk, do you believe that?
It's suspicious.
I'm tired, I'm going home.
What's up with him all of a sudden?
This is better for us.
We'll be saying our goodbyes to this dingy practice room.
I feel sentimental.
Where's Ji Hyuk?
He just left, you didn't see him?
Seung Hoon.
You look tired.
Just a little bit, but I'm fine.
What's the matter?
I thought about what you said last time.
I rushed things.
I'll wait for you, until the day you accept me.
Don't do that, I...
Soo Ah,
I'm not going to back down now.
I'm tired so please go.
Hear me out before you go.
Let go of that hand.
Get lost. This has nothing to do with you.
What are you doing?
Isn't that enough?
Get lost.
Seung Hoon, go home first.
I'll talk to you later.
Fine, it's cold so go in.
This is why there are rumors floating around at school.
What?
You two are always glued together but you're still going to say there's nothing going on?
What does it matter to you, whether or not we're dating?
I'm tired enough already without you two.
I don't need either of you.
Just leave me alone.
Ji Hyuk.
It can't be her.
What?
It's not the first time I've seen you with a girl.
- So what? - But...
Not this time.
Go home.
She's the one Byung Hee liked.
Can you tell the other guys that you're dating her?
Don't start anything with her.
If you already have, then end it.
It absolutely can't be her.
Ah... Yes?
Yes, I'm at the entrance now. Yes.
Ahjussi, are you the designated driver?
You arrived very quickly.
Yes, I was in the area.
Please give me your keys.
Aren't you Kim Soo Bong?
You're... Rock Kim?!
How long has it been since we saw each other?
Fifteen years, right?
The last time was when we were performing at a club in Itaewon.
That was the last time we saw each other.
It was something to do with your daughter's school and running away...
What happened to you?
Never mind all that.
- Hey, it's great to see you! - You punk!
I can't believe I ran into you.
What does it matter to you, whether or not we're dating?
She's the one Byung Hee liked.
Can you tell the other guys that you're dating her?
I want to be with you.
When the cold wind blows
when it blows so fiercely, you can hardly breathe
Are you mad?
Why didn't you answer your phone?
You were the one who told me not to run.
You made it so I wouldn't go anywhere
I worry if it’s bearable
and now you are sick of me?
- That's because... - Right.
You always do what you want to do.
because it’s hard for me to endure
I'm not going to be stupid enough to be swayed by you anymore.
I don’t know what love is
Because I don’t know, I keep shrinking away
I don't know what to do either.
What don't you know?
I don't know whether this is right or wrong.
My head feels like it's going to explode.
Suddenly you’re at my side, in my arms
I feel like I'm going crazy.
Suddenly, love, my love
I'm going crazy...
liking you.
Somehow, maybe I fell in love with you
or somehow, maybe you fell in love with me
I wanted to tell you just once
the love I just can’t hold back
All the time I looked your way
I want to tell you everything
Today, I want you
Today, I want to hold you in my arms
As I look at you,
The more I look at you,
the more tears fall
behind your back
