Cantabile Tomorrow
Mini Min Hee, just thinking about it makes me happy...
I came to bring you back, Nae Il.
I've only thought about this.
That you'd get on a plane and come here for me.
I've only dreamt about this.
I really came, so let's go together.
You really came.
How did you get here?
By plane.
Were you able to get on?
I was going to run away.
But... I heard your voice.
You were crying, weren't you?
What did you do to me?
I thought... it would be nice if you could go anywhere.
Do things you want to do, go places you want to go...
I hoped you'd be able to do everything without giving up.
That would be nice.
Are you... really giving up the piano?
I keep thinking about the stage.
I was just afraid and nervous on stage before...
but I feel like my fingers remember the stage.
You said you're not entering the competition.
Do you regret it?
Yes, I regret it a lot.
I should've at least participated.
I thought about that. It's a little disappointing, too.
Then you should enter.
What?
We just need to send the application in an hour.
- Wait! - Where can we find a fax?
What?
Yoo Jin!
Fasten your seat belt.
- Drink the whole thing. - Yes.
To be honest, my Nae Il has an unique personality
so I was worried if she'd get married in her lifetime.
- We're not yet... - It's okay.
We're like a family now. So what are you embarrassed about?
That's how I was in the beginning, too.
Now now...
Here, drink it.
That's too much.
You must take after me. I guess you find a guy's looks as your priority.
It's all thanks to my father who got me a nice place to live.
Wasn't it hard?
You didn't pass out on the plane?
I caused a bit of ruckus...
but I didn't pass out.
We tried to treat it for 10 years with no result...
I guess I'm really a useless mother to you.
That doesn't suit you.
Black tea coffee... I'll bring black tea coffee.
Mom.
You acted all brave and strong on your own...
Is this what you were doing when I wasn't around?
What are you talking about?
My eyes are just itchy.
When did... my mom become so small?
It's not that I became small...
It's that my son grew up.
I'm proud of you.
Nae Il, this girl... she made me worry and now she's all smiley.
But it's great that she's entering the competition.
Salzburg Competition... Wow.
If she wins the competition, her recital is a possibility.
Wow, then will Seol Nae Il grow to the level of Sohn Soo Ji?
Will our Rising Star have to invite her in the future?
But what do we do now?
It looks like Yoo Jin is really going to study abroad.
What do you mean?
I'm here! This Yoo Il Rak!
I guess, we do have Rak with us.
Yes, we have Il Rak with us.
What's going on with you?
I'm not familiar with this response.
Nae Il!
Yoon Hoo...
Hello.
You're on alert. I'm disappointed.
I'm sorry.
But Yoo Jin told me not to hang out with you.
Cha Yoo Jin... does he want to pick a fight again?
From now on, please make sure to keep this distance.
This much.
Even divorced couples stay friends these days.
So this is too much just because I confessed my feelings.
That's true. But...
You're over-reacting.
It looks like you're doing this because you're falling for me.
Are you? Are you falling for me?
So you were.
No!
- It's not that I wasn't... - I know, I know.
I know Nae Il has her principles.
By the way... you feel bad for saying no, right?
Have a good trip.
Wherever you go, whatever you do...
when you want to give up, just remember one thing for me.
Someone started over thanks to your performance.
Thank you so much...
but I can't accept this.
I'm sorry.
I'd like you to consider it a gift from your fan.
Bye, Nae Il.
Don't cry even if things get tough.
Okay.
What's with hiking at night?
Watch out. You'll fall.
You need physical strength to practice.
I heard you had fun with Butter Boy today.
How did you know? Were you watching me?
He came to me and bragged about how much fun he had.
We just said good-bye to each other.
We can't even talk as friends?
You're really tiring these days.
Hey!
Why do you act so confident these days?
What do you mean?
Of course it's because of you.
You should see this before you leave.
It looks like stars will pour down.
You can see more clearly when it gets cold.
Yoo Jin, how will things change when we come here next time?
We'll walk together or walk separately. Either one of the two.
You don't make an effort in your answers.
Go a little slower or a little ahead.
It'll be either one of the two.
Every time I think of my childhood
the first thing I thought of was the streets of Europe.
As if classical music was embraced in the air
the melody of classical music stayed in the ear at every turn of a corner.
As if time stopped
it is exactly how I remember it.
The scenes and sounds that I've always missed.
Teacher Viera, I'm finally here.
Do you know how much I've looked for you?
What if you get lost? Why are you out alone?
Aren't they prettier than Rak's couple rings?
Those couple rings?
What do you think? Aren't they awesome?
Are these couple rings, a symbol of love?
That's right!
Can you feel that our love's soul is living and breathing in these?
What do you think? Aren't they nice?
Isn't it nice?
Just say it's nice.
Right here.
You're nagging about couple rings again after coming all the way here?
You're here for the competition.
If you don't win, you'll have to give up studying abroad.
Seeing that I'm already here, the goddess of
luck is already on our dovey couple's side.
So please don't worry too much.
But that ring is so round and pretty.
All the rings are round!
You should go back and practice for the competition.
I'm going to Teacher Viera by myself.
What?
You said we'd go to Teacher Viera together and hang out in the evening!
Seol Nae Il, where are you going? You have no money!
Maestro Viera is not there?
It can't be. I made an appointment with him.
His program in Berlin changed.
I'll call you when his schedule is settled.
Yes, okay.
Orabang, we won't get to see Teacher Viera?
No.
But now you're in Europe
you can meet him anytime you want to.
Right?
I guess I have no choice.
I'll have to make the sacrifice.
I'll definitely make you feel good, Orabang.
What are you going to do?
That is... sightseeing!
Since it turned out this way, let's have fun today!
Sightseeing, you are just using me as an excuse?
Aren't you going to practice?
We were going to hang out after visiting Teacher Viera anyway.
Yoo Jin, look at this!
Hello, Mozart!
Mozart chocolate!
I want to eat Mozart chocolate. Just buy me one, please!
This is so delicious.
You seem more moved by Mozart chocolate than Mozart's house.
They don't even let me play the piano.
The food that can't be eaten and the piano
that can't be played have no use at all.
Orabang, ah.
I don't want to.
Still?
You keep embarrassing me, so I'll eat one.
Isn't it delicious? Delicious? Delicious?
- Tell me it's delicious. - Why did you buy so much?
I bought them for gifts. The flower of honeymoon is shopping.
Honeymoon?
Chocolate or piano, you did everything you wanted to do.
So now go practice your piano.
We've come this far, so we should at least go to Hellbrunn Palace.
- What are you talking about? - What are you talking about? No!
Orabang! Did you eat something bad for lunch?
Didn't you see Sound of Music?
The palace where Captain von Trapp proposed to Maria!
The place of love where Liesl and her boyfriend whispered love to each other!
Let's share our love in that palace.
Orabang!
Go slow!
It's the fountain from Sound of Music!
Fine, fine. Okay.
Okay, go!
- Tada! - Be careful. You'll fall backward.
Water, water!
Seol Nae Il!
I told you to stop running!
Seol Nae Il.
Why, Orabang?
You don't want to go home already, do you?
I have something to give to you, so close your eyes.
What is it?
Pull your lips back.
Open your eyes!
What the...
I'm losing my mind.
Orabang... you wanted to drench me in water?
Orabang? Orabang!
Orabang, where are you? Ora...
Orabang, are you looking for something?
You took revenge on me because I wouldn't practice the piano?
I didn't know you were so narrow-minded!
Should we just leave then?
Sure, I'll just give up.
I'll never buy them again.
What? What did you lose? What did you buy?
Rings.
Round, pretty rings that you really wanted.
No! My round, pretty rings!
I have to find my rings!
I have to find the rings!
Hey...
Step aside. Step aside!
Rings, where are you? My rings...
Let's just go. You wanted to leave.
No! I won't leave until I find the rings!
Aren't you going to practice?
Couple rings come first! I won't leave until I find them!
The completion of love is couple rings!
What do you know?
You don't even know...
Where did they go...
- I'm not leaving! - Here.
Orabang, now give it to me.
- You want this, right? - Yes.
The competition comes first. I'll give it to you if you win.
Should we go practice now?
Yes, let's go practice.
Let's go.
I'm going to look for a place after Seol Nael Il's competition is over.
Don't worry.
I'll take care of it.
Go to bed, Mom. It's early morning there.
Okay, good night.
What?
I can't fall asleep and I'm not feeling well either.
Did I get too wet earlier?
You have no fever.
Then... it's probably not a cold...
but... I keep thinking about Mom and my friends...
Is this called homesick?
When you were whimpering like a wet dog because you were scared on the plane
I patted you on your side.
I did that for you...
I'm disappointed.
Come in.
I'm so sick...
It's so cold.
By the way, do you have anything to eat?
I'm hungry.
I don't.
I want something spicy like ramen, don't you have any?
If you go to a store in front, would they have it or not?
Would they? Would they not?
Stay here.
It hurts. It's cold.
What's good for a cold?
Honey...
Okay.
Ramen!
Mini Min Hee, take a careful look.
First one.
Does it look good on me?
Then what about this one?
Tada! Second one.
Are you really sharing a room with Yoo Jin?
Of course. We're already like a husband and a wife.
We'll be studying abroad together, so we
decided to practice being a married couple.
Really?
- Yoo Jin wanted to do that? - That's what I said!
Feel free to spread rumors all you want.
What about this one?
Is it sexy?
By the way, why does Yoo Jin have that face behind you?
Yoo Jin, you're already back?
I was worried about you...
Get out.
Get out! Hurry up!
- Get out! - Mini Min Hee!
I knew it.
Mini Min Hee, help me!
Get out now!
No, Yoo Jin! You shouldn't do this!
- Get out! Get out! - I'm really sick.
You're forbidden to come here until the competition is over.
I won't spread rumors again. I'm sorry.
You weren't telling me the truth anyway.
If you have time for tricks, practice.
Please don't do this!
I shouldn't have made the call. I should've just pretended to be sick.
I'm so sick, I don't think I can sleep alone.
I'm really sick...
Before you leave, should we wear couple shirts?
Or should get couple shoes?
Forget it. What couple shirts? Like little kids...
Why? How is that for kids?
Then... like mature adults...
how about couple underwear?
Don't go overboard!
Why? Isn't it nice to have couple underwear?
- Forget it. - I agree.
Why do you have a date here?
Go far away or somewhere else.
Is this the only place to go?
Il Rak says that he needs to help his father.
He says he doesn't have time all day.
Oh, and...
Il Rak got this for you.
Make sure to take three glasses a day.
Right, Il Rak?
What?
You really shouldn't have.
It's hard to find a filial son like Il Rak these days.
He even takes care of his father's health.
We'll hang out just a little longer and help you.
Don't worry about helping me. Just hang out.
That's how you'll help me.
Have fun.
Why did you buy that?
I bought it on my way here.
- I feel bad. - Don't worry.
She's considerate just like Il Rak's mom.
Viola.
Tremolo in Letter A is difficult, right?
We'll just go with 16th notes there.
Don't slow down too much, Bass.
Let's take 10 minutes and continue.
Your lips shouldn't get too relaxed for wind instruments.
Your participation is confirmed. Take your card, please.
It'll decide when you'll perform.
Pick one.
Which one should I choose? Make a guess, ding dong dang!
It's number 12.
It's the last one.
Check your time for rehearsal and concert.
Please don't be late.
- Okay. Where is the stage? - That way.
Thank you.
Okay, thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much!
I guess someone is practicing.
She's Lu Wei.
Lu Wei... Do you know her?
She's a pianist who had a recital in Korea.
So why is she here?
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Is Lu Wei also a contestant for this contest?
Yes, she is. You didn't know?
So I have to do better than her to win the competition?
Do you see the cathedral over there?
I'm going to find one behind it.
Our house... that we'll live in.
I see. That's your house that you will live in.
You'll eat there and read the score there too.
By yourself, Orabang.
Seol Nae Il...
I wanted to make you food that will become blood and flesh of yours...
I memorized a whole recipe on eel, but I won't even get to use it.
Why do you worry about not winning? That's not like you.
If I don't win, I have to leave you behind and go back!
Yes, if you don't win I'll have to stay by myself.
In my house over there.
Are you already thinking about living by yourself?
Without me? Why? Just why?
Seriously...
You're going to cheat on me with blond sisters, right?
Blonds? Maybe.
Player! How long has it been since you gave me a hug from behind?
Don't you even remember?
But who's going to hit on me?
You'll be stuck to me like a piece of gum 24-7.
That's what you'll do.
You'll stay with me forever.
This place is full of geniuses...
Still...
I was going to give it to you after you win...
Orabang...
My goodness...
Take it.
It's your charm to help you win.
I just can't.
My god.
Now you can win, right?
No.
I can't win with this.
What?
Just a ring won't do it.
I need a victory kiss to win or something...
Go away.
Orabang! A victory kiss! Don't you know about kiss?
No!
Orabang! What's wrong?
Let's kiss!
Just give me a proper, deep one.
Orabang!
Her name on the application is not consistent with the name on the passport.
In this case, we can't confirm her
identification and she cannot be in the contest.
I will correct the spelling right now.
You can't correct the application once it's submitted.
You can't just disqualify her for wrong spelling.
It is regulation.
Seol Nae Il needs to prove that she's Seol Nae Il?
The English spelling on her application is different from her passport?
How could she make that mistake?
Okay, I'll look into it.
What? Did something happen to Yoo Jin and Nae Il?
Let's go to Seoul first. I'll explain it to you on the way.
Yoon Hoo!
It's time for our rehearsal on stage.
Verdi's La Forza del Destino.
It is resolute but also majestic just like the composer's spirit.
Verdi gave up music because of political pressure
but he got himself back up as he was composing La Forza del Destino.
This music became Verdi's reason to live on.
What does this music mean to me right now?
Nae Il...
Will you... play a duet with me?
Why me?
I want to perform with your piano accompaniment.
I'm sending off my friend of 20 years with the performance today.
Do you think your injury is some stranger's business?
If I really like it, I wouldn't give up.
This is the principle of Han Eum Music Academy.
I am aware that there is a mistake, however...
Hello? Did you check everything?
Are you sure?
Keep looking!
Okay.
Please.
Let us just sign and submit...
I can't ignore our regulation.
We just cannot give up after coming this far.
Sorry.
I played hard to get, saying 'I don't want to go,' things I didn't mean...
I'm getting punished, Seol Nae Il.
You need to bring a person who will identify
and guarantee that she's Seol Nae Il.
The guarantor should be one of the judges or
someone who is recognizeable by the judges.
I didn't mean to eavesdrop.
I was curious about who was playing the piano.
Are you a contestant in the competition?
Yes.
But I won't get to participate.
You won't get to participate? Why?
By any chance... are you the pianist Cha Dong Woo...
I mean, are you Yoo Jin's father?
How do you know my son?
How do you do?
I'm Yoo Jin's...
How... did you get here?
Now I see that you're here, your fear of flying must be cured.
- Yes. - How did you cure it?
I didn't know you'd be curious about the process.
Right, the process is not important.
Tell me what you're going to do now.
Seol Nae Il... the girl you saw just now...
We'll come here to study together.
I didn't see your name on the contestants' list.
So I wondered why you were here.
So you came to support your girlfriend?
It's important to prepare for my study...
but the priority is her competition.
Aren't you embarrassed for saying that?
What you need to put as your priority all the time is your music and your future.
That's why.
Because she's the one I'll lean on and stay together.
There is no 'together' in this path.
Being alone is already too much.
Go alone...
or find someone who will adjust everything for you.
I... won't live that way.
It looks that way.
Rachmaninoff wasn't bad last time.
For a college orchestra, it was okay to listen to.
So this is how it feels... to hear compliments from your father.
The list of judges for the Salzburg Competition is a top secret.
You can find out only after the competition is over.
Do you mean that I can't contact them before that?
Nothing comes easy for Baby.
I'll look into it...
but even if I get the list, it won't be easy to meet them.
You don't know who the judges are yet?
Just wait.
I'm also waiting right now.
We'll begin soon...
Even if someone guarantees her identity, it'll be too late.
It's not just you who is in a hurry.
I'm sorry.
It's fine now.
We tried everything we could, but it's not working out.
I heard it means that we should wait for the next chance.
- So now... - I haven't done everything I could.
Miss Seol Nae Il, you're in the contest.
How on earth?
One of the judges has just confirmed her identification.
Please follow me.
Cha Dong Woo is one of the judges.
My father is a judge?
If it's Cha Dong Woo that I know, no way.
But if it's his son's request, maybe it's possible...
If it's the father that I know, it won't work at all.
Rachmaninoff wasn't bad last time.
For a college orchestra, it was okay to listen to.
But...
he seems to have changed a little from how I remember him.
Is it my turn soon?
Yes.
Don't think about anything else.
Just think that you're playing in your own room.
It's my room, it's my room. I'm playing in my room.
To be honest, I don't need to win anymore.
It's about showing people the pianist Seol Nae Il.
Do you mean that?
Yes.
By the way... did they call my name?
Did they?
No, they didn't.
You said you didn't need to win.
Still, I want to win.
You'll do well.
Miss Seol Nae Il, it's your turn now.
Just like a small butterfly's wings cause a thunderstorm
there are cases where trivial things change everything.
The piano sound that resonated in the garbage dumpster.
Without that morning
where would we be now?
Yoo Jin, I finally get to go study abroad!
Congratulations, Nae Il!
I'll give you a hug. Come here.
No, a hug is not enough.
I need a kiss of love.
You do?
Playing pitiful again?
Seriously.
Yoo Jin hasn't contacted you?
He hasn't called me yet.
You said you were packing today.
I'll just pack by myself.
How will you pack alone? Wait until I get there.
Don't play pitiful alone again.
Really? You'll come and pack with me?
Mini Min Hee! Mini Min Hee...
I'm not going.
Sorry.
I hear we'll get many students worthy of our training next year
- I'm already getting my energy. - Me too.
A lot of students seem to flock to our school because of good school spirit.
I don't welcome studenst who come here because they like the relaxed atmosphere.
You like having fun, too.
It was obvious when you completed the Fart Song.
It's only for educating Seol Nae Il.
But you still had fun, right?
It wasn't bad.
I'm working on founding Rising Star as a professional orchestra.
It'll be the same even after they graduate?
After the initial support, they'll find their place soon.
I'll need to convince the alumni
but it'll work out.
They're going forward one step at a time on their own.
Stop worrying about the students who are doing well on their own.
Now, let's talk about us.
About what we'll do together in the future.
Guys, did you hear?
What?
Rising Star is a pro orchestra! We can continue after graduation.
What do you think? Isn't it awesome?
Good!
Our concertmaster has things together.
You're the best.
The dean also wants us to become an example
of success without studying abroad.
We don't need to make it so grand.
We're having fun, right?
Just continue like we have done.
Before that, let's do a special concert.
Special concert?
Which one should I pack first?
I have so many memories of Yoo Jin in this...
No! And this, too!
How can I throw them out?
Hey!
Throw them all out!
Are you going to keep packing and play pitiful until you leave the country?
They are my treasures, so how can I throw them out?
They were thrown out to begin with.
I picked them up because they were good enough to use.
So don't pick up just anything.
I said I'd pack by myself. Why did you come?
I knew you'd be like this.
If you're going to pack all your trash, cancel your study abroad.
Yoo Jin, I can't. How can I throw them all out? No!
They're so precious to me...
Yoo Jin, no!
Hi, Mini Min Hee! Hi, Rak! Hi, Mr. Curly Hair!
Would the reporters write articles
about how she'll inherit the idol of classical music
from Sohn Soo Ji after seeing her like that?
Should I just take a picture and expose the truth?
Leave it.
Thanks to her, our Rising Star got its name out, too.
People usually change after winning the Salzburg Competition.
Why is she the same?
- Useless! - Help me!
That's enough. Yoo Jin! Nae Il!
You have somewhere to go with us.
- Where? - Where?
When I didn't do anything, I wasn't anything.
When I was alone, it was natural to be alone.
As I met as many people as the types of instruements
and tuned melody and created chords...
I was able to see people in the world where music was everything.
We are still clumsy, prone to falling and slow like a turtle...
but we're learning the meaning of the word 'together'
and following our own notes one step at a time.
Soft and sweet...
Cantabile.
As if we're singing.
