Cantabile Tomorrow
Don't get agitated.
This is how good A Orchestra is.
You didn't expect this?
I didn't know they were this good.
Do you think we can win?
If we lose, our orchestra will be dissolved.
We're good too! We can win!
Everyone, tear up your scores.
Yes, that is how good A Orchestra is.
The elites of Han Eum Academy of Music.
They put a lot of effort on top of the talents they were born with.
Did you think you could defeat them with only a few weeks of practice?
What now?
Should we just give up? Since we'll lose anyway?
It's better than getting humiliated in front of our professors, friends and families.
How can you say that as a conductor?
Il Rak, stop.
It's not just a few weeks.
We worked really hard.
We mastered it already, so... do we have to give up now?
I don't want to.
I want to be on the stage.
I know I have no talent...
and this is my first orchestra...
but this is also the first time that I practiced really hard.
Let's do it then. Let's do it!
So what if we get humiliated?
Isn't it more humiliating not to try anything, whether we win or lose?
Isn't that right, Cha Yoo Jin?
Then... will you trust me and follow my lead?
Of course!
Tear up your scores, everyone.
We have our own weapon.
And we still have time to rehearse.
Let's try it. We can do it.
Tear up your scores! The conductor says we can do it!
Let's go!
Dad! You said you were coming to the wholesale market in Seoul today.
After your work, can you stop by just for a while?
We still have time.
I don't have time to go there.
That instrument just eats up money. Why would I go there to hear it?
Min Hee! Hurry up! Everyone is waiting.
Okay.
What about Nae Il? I though you were together.
I didn't see her. I haven't seen her in a while.
Really?
You're a so-called 'mascot.' I'm glad that you're not near him.
Why would von Stresemann be included on the judging panel?
He created the special orchestra.
The problem is that the dean had the right to choose the judging panel.
He has nothing to do with the two orchestras anymore...
Besides, if there are six judges, doesn't it mean that it'll be a tie?
There are seven.
There is one last judge that the dean recommended.
We all agreed on it.
Who is it?
We don't know what the result will be.
We have to leave it to them.
They are the fairest judges.
Girl, I looked for you everywhere...
Long time no see, Maestro!
It's been a while, madam.
Yoo Jin's mom. You can call me Yoo Jin's mom now.
Yes.
- Yoo Jin's mom... - Your Korean had improved a lot!
Well, that's why you made Yoo Jin your assistant and had him run errands.
Sit down, you're making a noise.
It's Yoo Jin's debut as a conductor. Aren't you excited?
Excited, my butt.
He was busy running errands, I doubt that he had much time to practice.
Stop it already.
They're starting now.
Thank you!
- Here, here. - Thank you, mister!
- Hurry up! You shouldn't be late. - Okay.
Nae Il, you should be careful!
- I'm sorry. - Are you okay?
I have to hurry...
- Thank you. - Hurry, hurry!
Don't be late!
Be careful!
We have 10 minutes.
Check on your instruments and attire...
Do your final check.
Almighty Cha, what are you looking for?
Water? Something to calm yourself?
- No. I feel like I forgot something. - What?
You have the baton, the full score...
Hold on a sec!
Wait! Wait!
It was Seol Nae Bal. (pun for 'ball of energy')
I brought our armor.
- Our armor? - What's our armor?
It is...
the special T-shirts!
Get rid of them.
Are you joking now?
It's not a joke.
Look at this. I fell down and got hurt because I was rushing...
That must hurt.
Yes, let's wear them, Cha Yoo Jin!
It's our uniform. We'll get more excited with this on and play better, right?
Do whatever you want. Just don't force it on me.
- Okay! Come out, come out! - Get your shirts!
Orabang, you should wear one too.
I made yours really special.
Is this a circus?
I'm not wearing it.
Orabang, still, I made it myself...
They are the leftovers alright.
They don't even have the dignity of music students.
I'm sorry. I should have given them a warning.
It's a shocking surprise, as I expected.
No one came close to Franz when it came to shocks.
I guess Yoo Jin only learned to be shocking since he couldn't learn to conduct.
Il Rak! Il Rak!
What's with the score?
Sorry. I thought we should have one.
Let's go!
He's the only boring one.
At least the conductor is normal.
He's Cha Dong Woo's son...
so he shouldn't get swayed by the leftovers.
Mister, my Orabang wore the shirt that I made for him.
You're right. It was worth getting your fingers pricked.
Orabang, still, I made it myself...
Cha Yoo Jin, are you really okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
What if we lose?
Even if we lose, we just need to do our best so we won't have any regrets.
Let's show them how hard we practiced.
Okay.
Let's have some fun.
Beethoven Symphony No. 3 Eroica, First Movement.
Since he composed it to dedicate it to Napoleon
a heroic spirit is felt in the first movement.
Orabang is captivating everyone.
Eroica, Fourth Movement.
Beethoven's will to overcome the despair of losing his hearing
and his will for victory is shown in the last movement of Eroica.
Are you really going to do it?
You wanted to have fun.
Now!
- Now! - Now!
Why Maestro chose these people... Why Yoo Il Rak is the concertmaster...
Now I know.
A heart for enjoying music...
They have the biggest weapon in the world.
Each and every one of them are Seol Nae Il.
My Rak is the best! Bravo, bravo!
You said they were leftovers.
They were.
What on earth... changed them?
Excuse me, you see that yellow hair? That's my son.
He's my son! My son!
Mister, it's strange.
Orabang is too big and too far from me.
How are the leftovers getting so much applause?
- Is it because of Cha Yoo Jin? - Cha Yoo Jin must be great.
What do you mean?
They're clapping out of pity.
People are too full of sympathy.
Look at them going overboard because they feel bad for the leftovers.
Let's go out there and show them.
Let's show them the real level of our school orchestra.
Okay. Everyone, do your final checks.
- Well done, everyone! - Good job! Good job!
Well done!
Everyone did a great job.
What about Seol Nae Il?
Right? She should be yelling, 'Orabang!' and coming to you.
Go ahead first. Don't leave the group.
You said, 'don't leave the group.' But where are you going?
Yoo Jin, good job!
- Father! - My son!
Father, did you see me? Wasn't I the best?
My soul dominated all!
Yes, yes you did.
My son led an orchestra as the concertmaster...
Your mom should've seen this...
Are you crying, Dad?
Your nose is running...
Il Rak...
My son...
Dad!
When did you get here?
Did you see my performance?
I did.
You told me to come!
It's just big for nothing, eating up money...
You really can't give it up?
I'm sorry.
Dad...
It's worthless, you can't even eat it. It's just damn expensive...
The sound... Its sound was really nice to listen to.
That's why you can't give up.
Get back.
Dad, make sure to wear your hat.
You got darker!
Make sure to eat even if you don't have appetite.
Bye.
Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 'From the New World.'
Dvorak from Bohemia composed this
while he was the director of the National Conservatory of Music of America.
It is one of the most famous symphonies in history.
The first movement starts off slowly and picks up its tempo in a lively way.
The second movement starts with a chorus of wind instruments
and continues on with the melody of the English horn.
Majestic and elegant like this...
No, Cha Yoo Jin would have gone with fullness.
His conducting is shaky.
What's wrong with his conducting?
Get back to your pace!
That kid saw Cha Yoo Jin conduct.
I missed it.
Keep it up.
Don't get confused, everyone.
Why isn't anyone looking at me? You should watch me and perform!
Come to your senses, please!
Of course the elite's orchestra is different.
That kid is... intimidated.
That's how talent is.
It makes a joke out of effort and time.
Why are you here alone?
What about your members?
Professor Ahn...
You came to play the piano.
If it was a piano performance today, you and Yoo Jin would've played together.
- It's a bit disappointing. - I'll play with them next time. Then...
Nae Il.
You have to get proper lessons from now on if you want to play with Yoo Jin.
You can't keep playing the fart song forever.
Why not? The fart song is fun.
You also told me that it's the best music when I play it and have fun.
Don't you want to play it better?
You have the talent.
You can go on to competitions and win awards...
I said I'm not entering any competitions!
I'm going to be a kindergarten teacher anyway...
so what's the use of entering in competitions?
I'm going to play the piano and have fun with kids everyday.
Just like kids, have fun...
Do you... really want to become a kindergarten teacher?
Or do you want to continue playing the piano that much?
Pardon?
Nae Il, you can't be a kid forever.
You're a bit strange today, Professor.
I'll get going. Bye now.
What's wrong with living like a kid forever?
You told me yourself...
that having a fun life is the best.
Nae Il, did something happen?
Orabang, I'm really sad.
I'm upset.
Come here, I'll make you feel better.
Did you make them kiss?
No, I let him give her a hug.
That's same.
See? It's still the same.
Orabang...
Your fingers are pricked and your knee is scraped.
What's this? You should've been careful!
I'm sorry.
Thanks to you, I had fun at the performance.
Ouch.
Does it hurt?
Orabang, you're really close.
Don't say nonsense.
Orabang, I got hurt here, too. Can you blow here, too?
- Where? - Here.
Go to the doctor.
You're the real medicine, so just once.
Declined!
Thank you.
So the audience decision is S. Is that right?
Is that also what you think, Professor Do?
Yes.
But...
A Orchestra was technically much better.
That's right.
It's an extraordinary orchestra.
To play that well in that situation, how much did they have to practice?
It's just that the audience chose an enjoyable orchestra over technique.
That's right.
Now I'm going to tell you the result of the votes.
A Orchestra...
Three votes.
S Orchestra...
Two votes.
It's a tie if you include the audience vote.
But... one didn't vote.
Professor von Stresemann.
I believe Maestro will make a wise decision.
So... I have to choose.
I don't know how to deliver the news...
Professors' votes went to you, of course.
Professor von Stresemann was supposed to exercise the last vote.
Which one did he vote for?
Which one is it?
He didn't vote...
He ran away.
There is a limit to how odd you should be, Franz!
[I'm going to the Yoon Yi Song Music Festival.]
This habit of running away when he's cornered...
It started again!
I want to see you, Franz.
Now, cheers to S Orchestra!
S Oche, S Oche, S Oche!
My Rak's teacher is the best! Eat a lot!
- Enjoy! - Thank you!
Orabang, drink just a little. Fill up with food.
You did very well today.
Enjoy.
What happens to us now?
If the professor doesn't come back, do we continue with A and S Orchestras?
I hope he doesn't come back.
I agree. Almighty Cha is enough as our conductor.
[Chae Do Kyung]
Yes, I arrived this morning.
I came back in time for your conducting debut.
Of course I should see it.
It's been a while. Let's go for a drink.
Why not?
Where? You're at a after-party? You?
Why are you coming now?
I'll be there soon.
Were you waiting for me?
Of course.
Let's go somewhere and have a drink.
Seung Ho...
I want to stand as the best.
- What? - If I can't be the best...
then I need to at least stand next to the best.
Our families are friends, so you're not going to linger, are you?
We've been good friends.
I have plans, so I'll get going now.
Do Kyung...
You're so loud, Yoo Il Rak!
You're obviously a violinist, making that annoying noise.
You're a born timpani player.
You get upset over nothing.
You think you can play without timpani?
Timpani is the best!
- Are you laughing at wind instruments? - He's right!
You can hide yourself, but we get pointed out as soon as we're wrong.
Everyone, line up behind me. The bigger the better for instruments.
Contrabass is the best!
Hey hey Seol Nae Bal, what's with your meddling here?
Rak, don't get involved!
Seriously...
Hello. Can I interrupt for a minute?
Please have a seat right here.
Sit down, sit down!
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
You look like you're having fun.
This is why you said no when I asked you out on a date?
Move, this is my seat.
Move!
Who the heck is she?
Seol Nae Bal! (pun for 'ball of energy')
The right side is Seol Nae Bal's and the left is my assigned seat.
And who the heck is he?
Who are they? Friends?
I'm sorry, but I'm Orabang's wife.
I think you were out of line.
Orabang...
- That's not right. - Please tell her.
Hey, stop it already.
Cha Yoo Jin's still popular.
Is your throat hurting? Do you want to head out first?
No. I was curious about your members.
It's been a while. It's nice to be here.
Chae Do Kyung, you used to hate parties like this.
You're the one who changed.
You're more attractive this way.
You're really pretty.
Miss Han Eum is really different.
Thank you.
- Who are you looking for? - Seol Nae Bal.
She's been helping with serving the whole time and hasn't eaten yet.
Where did she go, leaving behind food?
Seol Nae Bal? The girl... from just now?
- Nae Il left. - She did?
What's the occasion for leaving when the food is here?
You told me not to get close to you everyday!
You didn't say anything to Miss Han Eum!
You're not allowed to come close to me either, Orabang!
I'm sorry.
Let's go. You'll catch a cold if you stay here longer.
I drank too much, so I'm leaving now.
- See you next time. - Bye.
- Are you really leaving? - Where are you going?
Where are you going?
- We're going for a second round! - We're going for a third round, too!
This is all I can do for you as your ex-boyfriend.
- Yoo Jin... - You can go by yourself, right?
Bye.
Yoo Jin!
I got you!
Does it hurt?
There you go again. I see Orabang everyday, so what's happening to me?
Nae Il!
Seol Nae Il!
No! I'm Seol Nae Bal to Orabang. I'm not Seol Nae Il!
Mom, I'm really strange. Am I sick?
Seol Nae Il!
She's not home yet?
Let's have so much fun that Yoo Jin will get jealous!
Second round! Second round!
Let Miss Han Eum leave! It's just power of makeup!
I won't exchange you even for a truckload of those girls.
- Let's go for the second round, Min Hee! - Let's go!
I'll head home now. I have a part-time job tomorrow morning.
I had fun today. See you tomorrow.
Bye.
- Was Min Hee always that pretty? - Right?
She was always soaked in sweat carrying that contrabass
so I didn't notice.
Does Min Hee have a boyfriend?
I don't think she does.
Second round! Second round!
- Let's go in! Let's go in! - Let's go in the tent!
Wait, wait!
I don't think we should go there.
- Why not? It's close! - Let's go to the tent!
No, since we won today, let's go to a nice place.
It's my treat!
- Really? - Let's go!
Second round! Second round!
Second round! Second...
Excuse me.
The elite concertmaster drinks soju, too?
You look like you should be carrying wine.
Do you have business with me? Why don't you leave?
You know we won today.
I fall behind as the concertmaster, but our orchestra doesn't.
I know.
You guys were great.
I'm sorry about looking down on you.
We are a bit... really great.
I'm glad that you realize it now.
Acknowledged.
I hope we get another chance to compete.
We will do our best and not be arrogant then.
She has a wild side.
She's pretty.
I don't think Nae Il is in the mood for a lesson today.
You're right, Professor. I'm depressed.
Should I give you news that will make you feel better?
What is it?
Cha Yoo Jin will be here soon.
I'm leaving now, Professor.
Why? Did you have a fight with Yoo Jin?
No, it's not that...
But I can't face Orabang right now.
Why not?
I'm just... disappointed about last night.
Anyway!
Yoo Jin always disappoints you, but you were still having fun.
You're right, I did.
Then why, all of a sudden?
I don't know either.
It's about time.
Pardon?
What did he mean by, 'it's about time'?
Professor Ahn is strange sometimes.
Jackpot. I thought I wouldn't get to see him today.
You should've been here just a bit sooner. Then you'd have seen Nae Il.
I haven't seen her all day.
Is that right?
It's springtime. How nice.
It's fall.
Is it impossible for me to change my major to conducting?
Now I think about it, you're still a piano major.
Yes. The request is already past due, so I'm wondering if there's another way.
Professor Ahn!
Did you know about this, Professor Ahn?
Did you plot this together, by any chance?
- What do you mean? - Yoo Yi Song Music Festival!
Yoon Yi Song Music Festival... Professor von Stresemann is there, isn't he?
We received an official notice.
The recommendation for students who will attend the master class!
Who?
- Me? - Not just you!
Even Ma Soo Min and Yoo Il Rak!
The forever flunker Yoo Il Rak!
I'd understand that much.
How can we send a student who plays the fart song to the master class?
It means we'll humiliate ourselves internationally!
- Seol Nae Il, too? - Seol Nae Il, too?
You're Seol Nae Il? You're the one who came to interview for the job?
Yes, that's me.
Leaving out so many talented people who applied for the master class...
and handing that precious right over to that fart song player?
I cannot accept this!
But if Maestro von Stresemann already recommended them...
No way!
You scared me.
With this chance, we must send a clear message about von Stresemann's oddity.
[Damn Old Coot] I'll tell you who played the piano...
so send the students that I recommended.
Did you... tell von Stresemann I was looking for the student, who's playing hero?
Yes. You said you had to find that student, so...
This damn old coot!
The fart song, of all people!
You want me to give that precious chance to a student who plays the fart song?
That's what happened! I really thought you were a married student couple.
So you're from Jeju Island. Your dad has a pony farm and your mom is a diver?
That's amazing. They must have a knack for making a living.
What about siblings? Are you alone?
Yes.
An only child with an only child... That's pretty good, too.
Which clan of Seol? What about your birthdate?
What about the time you were born?
By the way, Mini Min Hee's boss...
I don't know what you're talking about now...
I should know at least this much.
Why is the house so clean?
Now I am hallucinating...
I'm tired.
You made a mess already?
You can't throw out old things, you pick up things from the street.
That's why your place is a mess!
How did you get in here? How did you know the code to my place?
It was same as mine.
Anyway, it's the place of a single woman...
- This is a crime! - Are you in any position to say that?
You trespass my place all the time and steal my food all the time!
I was just supporting you...
Now Chae Do Kyung will be supporting you, right?
Why do you bring up Chae Do Kyung?
She wouldn't be supporting her ex-boyfriend anyway.
Ex-boyfriend?
Orabang, by the way, what's this?
Is it a so-called 'gift of love'?
I told you not to get ahead of yourself.
I picked it up on the way here.
Why are you so rough with your hands as a pianist?
It's gotten cold, so carry it with you.
Yes, Orabang.
Am I flirting with someone now?
You're invited to the master class at Yoon Yi Song Music Festival.
We're leaving next week, so get ready.
Do you not know about Yoon Yi Song Music Festival, by any chance?
Every year, the best musicians give lessons and have performances.
This is the most well-recognized music festival in the country.
I don't know and I'm not going.
I'm going to be with you forever, Orabang.
Fine, forget it if you don't want it.
I'll go.
- Are you going? - Why do you care?
- You said you weren't going. - When did I say I wasn't?
You have foul intentions.
You have no right to go to the master class.
I shouldn't miss it when you're going.
Let me have it. Let me take a look. Yoon Yi Song Music Festival...
Let's go!
- Il Rak, I love you! - Il Rak, I love you!
Orabang, rice rolls are the best on a trip. Have one.
What are you saying? I brought almonds for Almighty Cha!
Hey, I prepared those for Almighty Cha...
Be quiet, you idiots!
Hey, aren't you nervous about going to the music festival?
Let me get some sleep, please!
Orabang, it's time to get out. Wake up.
Orabang!
Are we at a rest stop?
What's this?
Water park!
My best friend, a man who only studies is not attractive in the 21st century.
Memories at a water park with Almighty Cha!
I'll remember it for the rest of my life.
This is your swimsuit. I prepared it for you.
I get burnt easily.
It's not summer anymore.
No! Just hang out by yourselves. I'll stay in the car.
Orabang, you want to stay with me alone in the car.
Okay, let's get cozy in the car...
- Wake up. - Have fun!
Do you have a secret on your body?
A mole on your belly button... or belly fat?
Ducky butt.
What are you imagining?
You can't get back in the car. No money, no key...
Or you can just wait in the parking lot until we come back.
- Let's go! - Let's go!
Hurry up, Orabang!
Seol Nae Bal! Seol Nae Bal!
Almighty Cha didn't come after all.
I wanted to see him in his swimsuit.
This is why he's called a nerd. He doesn't know how to have fun.
Maybe Orabang can't swim?
We came all the way here, so it'll be disappointing to just leave.
Let's create a nice memory for Orabang.
A human being's mind has infinite power.
The mind controls the universe.
The mind controls your body.
I'm at a small temple in a deep mountain.
No matter what anyone says, I am...
Let's swim, Orabang!
I don't see it.
I don't hear it.
This is a temple in a mountain.
I can't help it. We should just leave. Orabang won't even swim.
I'm bored.
We're leaving?
We have to return the life vest. Take it off.
Really? We're really leaving?
Yes, we should reach early and practice. I need to spread my spirit.
Me too. A famous timpani player I've only heard of is coming. I need practice.
That's right!
Now you're thinking like normal people.
Why is it next to the beach, of all places?
Yoo Jin won't have to go in the water, will he?
Seon Young!
My goodness, what brought you here?
You meant it when you said you'd open a cafe.
Is it fun?
It is quite fun to hear about my child from other people.
Have a seat.
You pretty much abandoned your child...
Why are you being so dramatic now?
- Can you give me a cup of coffee? - A cup of Americano, please.
- Is Yoo Jin doing well? - Of course.
He went to Yoon Yi Song Music Festival, but I'm nervous because it's by the beach.
He won't have a reason to go in the water. He can't stand planes or ships.
Right?
Is he getting treated?
According to Dr. Kim, it's been a while since he stopped by.
It looks like there isn't much to expect from a doctor's treatment.
It looks like he's on some hypnotherapy.
The side effects from the accident were too big.
Will you just leave him alone?
It'll be hard for him to become a conductor this way.
I told you that Yoo Jin made a debut as a conductor.
But it's still a college orchestra here.
It'll be hard for him to grow more.
He can't go abroad as someone who dreams of becoming a conductor.
That again!
It's a waste to let Yoo Jin just rot.
Let's make him train under me.
I told you that Yoo Jin has no interest other than conducting.
Samhan Electronics is our family business.
I've grown it this much, so I want to give it to someone I trust.
If it's Yoo Jin, I can trust him and leave it to him.
Orabang, isn't it cooling?
He looks amazing even when he's in the water.
What's with going underwater? I knew he wanted to have fun.
Something is not right, Rak.
What could go wrong in such shallow water?
My body... is not moving.
Did I drop... in the ocean again?
Am I going to... die like this?
Orabang!
