Episode 41
Nam Jeongim, Nam Jeongim.
Thank you.
Thank you...
That was the theme song from the film, 'Come Closer.'
It was sung by singer Nam Jeongim.
Jeongim.
You were great today.
I was not. I was so scared that I would fumble again.
You sang it really well.
You can definitely tell people that you're a singer now.
Wait a minute.
Thanks for saying that to me.
I really meant it.
Thank you. I'll remember this as a great experience.
Are you really going to quit?
You've only just begun.
Don't make fun of me. I don't want to embarrass myself further.
I have no regrets now. I'm fully satisfied.
You can sing as well as you did today in the future.
No, I don't have the confidence. This is the end.
I'm going then.
Wait for me. Let's go together.
I'll give you a ride.
No. I'd rather walk alone today.
I'm going.
What happened?
- What? - About Jeongim.
Tell me what happened with her.
What do you mean?
I want to know how she came to sing.
It's because she's a good singer. What other reason could there be?
Did you pick her on purpose?
Is that how it seems?
Yes.
What's the matter with you?
Hyeonuk.
I'm not complicated like you.
She's good, so I let her sing. That got out to the public.
I didn't do it. It was fate.
Even so, you're the one who made her sing on the radio.
That's really pushing it.
No one's born a singer.
She's good. Isn't that what's important?
Seoyeong, I didn't know you were so judgmental.
There you are.
Hello, director Han.
Did Nam Jeongim really work as a cleaning lady at your company?
People are posting comments all over the show's website.
- Really? - Everyone's encouraging her.
Nam Jeongim
Jeongim!
You were so good today. You were the best!
Really? I wanted to make up for last time.
You did more than just make up for it. You were great.
I was so scared that you'd sing off pitch like last time.
I was scared too.
You should keep singing. You're good.
I mean it. I'm not joking.
Who says I can do it?
What do you mean by that?
Why can't you sing? It's up to you.
You don't need to tell me that. I'm fine.
I mean it. Surf the web. Everyone's talking about you.
Thanks, Aeran. I've made up my mind now.
How can I be a singer? I wasn't thinking straight.
I'm going to go back to my old life as of tomorrow.
But singing on a stage like this...
That's something that I never imagined would happen to me.
But this happened and it has made me very happy.
Are you going to bed?
No.
About Jeongim...
Are you going to repeat yourself?
Yes! Until your ears fall off.
We're not getting back together. I can only repeat my words too.
Imagine how upset she must have been to want to take up singing.
Can't you try to understand her?
She wanted to grasp on to something. Can't you understand that?
She knew it was ridiculous, but she wanted to hold on to it.
It's all over now. She's not going to keep singing.
- Did you meet Jeongim? - Yes.
She's not going to sing again. She's waken up to herself.
What's wrong?
In any case, she was quite excited about singing.
I feel bad for her now that she's giving it up.
- Why didn't you comfort her? - Why should I?
I told her to wake up to herself and live a proper life.
That's the best thing for her. She can't control herself.
What's the point in telling her anyway?
She thinks that I look down on her. She can't just listen to me.
Look at this ridiculous incident.
I was so nervous.
Do you think she wanted to do it?
If she decided that she wanted to become a singer...
- Mom. Is that my fault too? - Geez! You fool!
You can never just listen either.
Mom, don't worry about us. Let me handle it.
Fine then. I won't worry.
It's your life. Live however you want to.
What about Taeho?
He had dinner already.
Why did he eat that early? Tell him to eat some more.
He said he had dinner. Just leave him alone.
Your brother's feeling sad. You should comfort him.
Dad, everyone's sad.
It's not like someone told him to get a divorce.
What did I say?
Stop it, Yeonho.
I still can't believe it. She brought shame to Taeho.
Of all the jobs, why did she choose to be a singer?
No wonder Taeho's sad.
Stop talking about it. She's given it up now.
Really?
Apparently so.
Now she's thinking straight.
Don't be so cruel. Imagine how upset she must've been.
That's right. Jeongim was a good singer in school.
She sang in the choir.
If she was that good, why did she fumble on the radio?
That's true. She doesn't really have the voice to be a singer.
Gangho would make a better singer.
I would not...
- Why not? You're a good singer. - I am not.
Don't be so modest. You're good. Don't you agree, Yeonho?
Goodness. Why do you have to mention Gangho's singing?
Did you fight with your boyfriend?
What?
You keep getting mad. I feel so wary around you.
When did I get mad?
She's right. What's wrong with you?
What did I do?
Don't you agree, mother?
She wanted you to change, so you gave up your job and your parents.
Because she wanted you to...
You're a humble man now.
But I can't influence you at all.
What is it?
Did you have dinner?
Yes.
Do you want to come out to take a walk with me then?
No, I have to prepare for class. I don't have time.
Are you still mad at me?
I was never mad at you.
You're still mad.
I am not.
When you get mad, it's like the sky is crashing down.
Don't be mad at me. Let's take a walk.
I don't like walking.
I don't like walking. I don't like chicken feet. That's me.
- Yeonho. - I said I'm fine.
I'll keep being superficial. You don't need to change at all.
You can eat chicken feet and walk all you want.
Yeonho.
I won't ask to break up. I'll still like you. Don't worry.
Hello?
Yes.
Don't shout at me. I told you I'll take Gyeonghun with me.
He's changed his mind. I mean it.
Don't worry.
Why would I lie to you? Don't worry.
Hello?
He hasn't changed his mind.
What should I say then?
Ouch... My blood pressure's rising.
Mom, just tell him the truth. Gyeonghun will never change his mind.
He just wants to keep living here.
You know what your father's like. He'll put me back on a plane.
Do you still believe that Gyeonghun will live as you want him to?
He's changed 50%.
What if he never changes 100%?
Men do what women tell them to. Of course he'll come around.
It's just a matter of time.
Mom, do you have to take him with you?
He seems to be living a good life.
He does not. Look at the way he lives.
Are you making fun of me?
What's wrong with it?
He's not living like that just to get revenge on you.
He enjoys living that way.
He's not a child anymore. You can't control him.
It's all because of that girl.
Who? You mean Joon's mom?
Yes, that rotten girl. I can't forgive her even though she's dead.
How dare she make my son the way he is now?
She did a good job. I think he's a much better man now.
What? Whose side are you on?
I never disliked Joon's mom. Don't make me take your side.
What?
Geez...
It's so pretty.
Stop looking at it.
Our baby is so pretty.
Dahye, I think I'm going to get promoted.
What? Why didn't you tell me earlier?
It's not finalized yet.
The manager quit, so I've been made 2nd manager.
I think I'll be hired as a full time worker soon.
- Really? - Yes.
Then I get an extra $200 to $300 a month. They pay for health insurance too.
- We should have a party. - A party?
This is good news. We have to celebrate.
- It's not finalized yet. - It's the same thing.
- Dahye. - Father, mother! Gangho got promoted!
- He got... - Not yet, Dahye.
Let's tell them once it's official.
Please don't say a thing.
This is why they don't acknowledge you.
This is really important. How can I not say a thing?
Mother!
Did someone send a gift?
Your mother sent it. Meat and fruit.
Mom? Again?
We shouldn't receive all these gifts.
How will we repay her?
We don't need to do that. We should just enjoy it.
She must be very worried about you living here.
- Hello? - Mom.
- Stop sending gifts over. - What?
If you keep doing this, I feel really uncomfortable.
Why should you feel uncomfortable?
Mother's worried about how she should repay you.
We have meat and fruit here. You don't have to send it over.
I know you have food there. What did she say?
- Why do you feel uncomfortable? - It's not because of what she said.
The cows weren't given antibiotics. You're pregnant, so eat well.
They won't feed you the best. Be quiet and just eat it.
Are you doing this on purpose to make mother feel small?
- What? - You don't usually eat caviar.
You're just sending it over to make her feel small.
You sent that a few days ago. Why did you send more food over?
Yu Dahye!
If you keep doing this, I'll send everything back.
What? I just care about you.
How can you do this to me?
Can't I even send food over for my pregnant daughter?
- That's not how it seems to me. - I won't do it again then. Goodbye!
- What's wrong now? - What will I do with her?
- Why did I even give birth to her? - Just stop worrying about her.
Just imagine that she lives in the North Pole and forget about her.
Worry about your own life.
What did I do? I don't believe this.
You and Dahye are both such a pain. It just gets worse.
I'm never going to see her again.
Like mother like daughter.
We get to eat strawberries even though they're not in season.
She must be worried about her pregnant daughter.
Inseon's like that. She's warmer than she looks.
She must be so upset after sending her daughter here.
She probably feels like we've stolen her cute daughter.
You're so considerate of the way Inseon feels.
If only you thought Jeongim was cute like Dahye.
Why bring her up?
I don't know. I feel sorry for her not having a mother.
Receiving gifts like this makes me think of Jeongim.
- I feel sorry for her. - You're so odd.
You make it sound like they broke up because of me.
Stop eating. I haven't even washed them yet.
I only had 6.
I feel so burdened.
This is what I get for sending her Korean lettuce gimchi.
Why are you always so calculative?
Just say thanks for the gifts.
You're so easy-going.
I can't say a thing, can I?
It's not washed.
Geez...
You're not even calling me? Fine then.
I won't call you either.
What is it?
I'm in front of school. Come out.
I'm busy.
Come on.
I'm busy.
I came here to see you. Come out for a little while.
I'm busy right now.
You're already here.
The weather...
Didn't you go to work?
Sorry to bother you while you're busy.
Let's walk.
I know you don't like walking. Should we run then?
Let's go.
Your hand's so warm. I can't even feel the cold weather.
How long do we have to walk?
Yeonho.
Don't call my name like that. I still despise you.
Why do you despise me?
I just do.
I really like you, Yeonho. From head to toe.
I still hate you even if you say that.
The weather's so nice.
What is it?
You're so impatient.
How can I make you believe that I love you?
If I play golf?
If I go to the States and study?
If you say that, it makes me seem like an awful person.
You must have dreams too.
Not translating or driving a taxi. Not just earning money.
What is it that you've always wanted to do?
Why do you have to give that up and live this way?
It seems to me like you're still not over Joon's mom.
Gyeonghun.
I've forgotten Joon's mom.
She's not your rival.
Why don't you have any confidence in yourself?
If she came back to life...
Would you still choose me?
Tell me.
I'd have to think about that. Who would you choose?
Let's go play golf on the weekend.
I haven't played in a long time, but let's give it a try.
Forget it. Don't make me look silly like that.
I'm not going.
Come on.
I said no.
Fine then. Forget it.
The weather's so nice. We should go for a run.
Should we go for a run?
Geez...
Come on! Let's run!
Be careful!
Have you had lunch?
I had an appointment nearby. You haven't had lunch, right?
I packed lunch.
Really? That sounds delicious.
Give that to me. Let's go and have lunch together.
- I came to buy you lunch. - Why?
- Can't friends have lunch together? - Taeho.
You were good yesterday. The song was good.
You're quite a good singer.
I came to comfort you in case you felt disappointed.
I don't need to be comforted. I'm fine.
Don't be like that. I came here to see you.
Come on. I'll treat you.
Let's go. Take off these rubber gloves.
- I have to work. - Come on. Let's go.
Thank you.
I wanted to buy something nice. Why did you choose noodles?
- I have to go back to work. - You were good.
You were really good. I was shocked.
Thanks.
When did you practice?
You were so good yesterday. Did you just fumble last time?
Why are you being so kind?
I'm just telling the truth. You really were good.
Choi Hyeonuk's song was good.
It's not a good song.
I thought he would write good songs.
That melody's really common.
The song's good, so it made me look like a good singer.
- Are you sticking up for him? - Is that what it looks like?
You're still not thinking straight.
What?
Why do you think I came here?
To congratulate you for breaking away from his influence.
I'm glad you chose to quit and return to your old life.
He had you fooled. Who knows what he could've done to you?
But you chose to give it up. I'm so relieved.
You weren't really thinking about becoming a singer, were you?
Aren't I allowed that?
It's not that...
Why can't I be a singer?
Jeongim, are you still having second thoughts?
I knew it. You're so naive.
What?
Do you know how tough you have to be to survive in that industry?
Don't kid yourself that anyone can become a singer.
I guess you could record a song on an album by chance.
You could go on stage and sing.
But singing as an occupation? That's a different story.
People like you can't be singers.
Talent, passion. Kids who are loaded with that kind of stuff.
It's for kids. Don't forget that.
What should I do then?
What?
What should people like me do?
I don't have talent or passion. I'm old too.
I'm not good enough to be your wife or to be a singer.
What should people like me do?
Don't start. Don't twist my words again.
I'm not. I'm asking you seriously.
Taeho, what should I do?
Are you happy that I quit?
Who says I'm happy?
I already told you. I was just worried about you.
Don't worry. We split up. Why worry about me?
It's not the end for us. We said we'd be friends.
Forget being friends. Just be friends with Seoyeong.
Stop it.
I'm going. I have to work.
- Jeongim. - Thanks for lunch.
Hey!
Wait, Jeongim. Don't be like that.
I want you to be happy, so I made time to come and see you.
I felt bad seeing you announce that you'd give up singing.
I felt bad, so I came to comfort you and to cheer you up.
Don't you know how I feel?
- Taeho. - What?
Do you really feel sad thinking about me?
Have you ever really felt that way?
I want to be cool like you and be friends.
I'm trying my best to be friends with you right now.
But I don't know why that hurts my pride so much.
I still keep feeling like you're looking down on me.
I know. You're misunderstanding me.
Is it really because I'm a fool?
Do I really misunderstand you and twist your words?
You could say that, I suppose...
Taeho, I want to be comforted.
What?
I want to be comforted... Not looked down on.
- I am comforting you. - You're not.
You're not comforting me. You ridicule me.
I want to be comforted. For real...
If you're really my friend, you should be able to comfort me.
I am comforting you. I told you.
This is so frustrating.
Fine then. Sing. Sing all you want.
Does that make you feel better?
I'm going. Bye.
- Boss, hurry up. - What's the matter?
- It's huge! It's a hit! - What is?
- Jeongim! - What?
Take a look at this.
Track sales 3rd, keyword search 1st. Album sales 10th.
How can this happen overnight?
I thought people were reacting last night after the show...
But this is huge. There are articles about her too.
Take a look.
A love song sung by a cleaning lady.
A middle-aged woman makes the world cry.
People felt moved by her comments yesterday.
People are calling us to ask if the cleaning lady sang it.
They're asking us if it's really her.
- Where is Jeongim now? - Excuse me? Wait...
- Nam Jeongim? - Yes?
Hello. I'm Park Changseok from the Daily News.
- Excuse me? - I heard you on the radio yesterday.
- Can I interview you? - An interview?
- Yes. - Jeongim!
Jeongim, I need to see you.
Sorry. You'll have to ask first before doing an interview.
Come on!
What do you mean by that?
You're huge!
What?
Wait a minute. Where should I begin?
- Right now... On the web... - Excuse me.
Yes, dad.
Jeongim! Your song...
Why is your song all over the radio today?
Really, dad?
Yes. Is it just by chance?
Wait... Is this song going to become a hit?
I don't know yet...
- Can we do an interview? - Please look this way.
She's on the phone.
Dad, I'll call you back later.
Sorry...
- Please smile. This way. - Look this way.
- Once more. - This way too.
Would you like some? Dahye's mother sent it over.
- It's okay. - What's wrong?
You never refuse food.
I don't know. I've lost my appetite.
- I feel really stuffy. - Really? Are you feeling ill?
- You must be happy. - Why?
You have a trustworthy husband and 3 good children.
I must feel lonely because it's fall.
Why are you laughing?
I'd like to live your life for just 1 day.
I mean it. That's my wish.
Why do I bother talking to you?
Can't you just listen to me?
- Bring it over here. - You said you didn't want it.
- It's so sweet. - Give it back.
Stop it!
What is yours, but your friend uses it more than you?
Buzz! Your name.
That's right. You're so smart.
The next problem. This means 2 people in love.
Buzz. Lovers?
Lovers...
You're a genius. You're so good.
The next problem. Lovers...
They hold hands and do this.
Do you know it?
Buzz. A relationship?
Relationship? That's right...
- Hello. - Hi.
Hello? The next one...
Dr. Song went out for lunch. She's not back yet.
I'm not here to see her. Inpyo, I want to see you.
Why? We're in the middle of playing a quiz, right?
I said I want to see you. Come with me!
Geez...
Hurry up! Stop fooling around.
- Lover, I'm going. - Relationship...
- Give me my money. - What? Money?
- The money you borrowed last month. - Why?
I have to move out. They asked me for more rent.
What? You said you only needed it for a month.
When? We invested together. I never borrowed it.
What? Don't change your words. You borrowed that money.
That's not how I understood it.
- You and I both... - Don't be ridiculous.
- Give me my money. - I can't take that out suddenly.
- What do you mean? - It's an investment.
- Did you lose it all? - What? Says who?
Then give it back next week. All of it.
- Jongnam... - I'm your in-law now.
Pay it back. I have nowhere to go. Got it?
Doesn't this song sound familiar?
- Song? What song? - I've heard this before.
It's a great song. You're so...
You're so cultured.
Stop sucking up to me. Give me my money.
I don't know what's going on. How did this happen?
- Because you sang well. - No way.
- I feel like a ghost has taken over me. - I feel like that too.
I didn't expect such a huge response.
I think people wanted hope, not a song.
You gave them that.
So don't be scared. Enjoy it.
I don't know this number...
They probably want to do an interview. Answer it.
No. I don't want to.
Don't be scared. Just tell the truth.
No. I'm not confident.
- Have this. - Excuse me?
Drink it. Did you have lunch?
Do you want any snacks?
You look great today. You really look like fall.
Answer it. It's okay.
Goodness. I don't believe this. Jeongim's a star now.
We should have a party.
Of course. We should give people rice cakes too.
I knew it the moment that I heard this song.
- I knew it would be a hit. - When did you say that?
- I did so. - Talk about fast.
How could the tables turn in an instant like this?
We should get her autograph.
I know.
I guess anyone can be a singer.
You should clean there too.
Should I?
Make sure you tell them you have kids.
You'll be a mother singer. A pregnant mother.
- A mother singer. - Yes. That's good!
- The song will be 'Due Next Month'. - 'Due Next Month!'
Taeho.
Taeho...
What?
- Aren't you hungry? Let's have dinner. - Should we?
- I'm so happy. - Why?
I wanted to do this with my boyfriend when I was young.
Sit in a cafe and read together.
Why did you want to do that?
I can't believe we're doing this. I'm so happy.
Why? We read every day.
What did you want to do most once you had a girlfriend?
I don't know. Hold hands, kiss...
Sorry about that.
Taeho.
Yes?
Do you really want to never get married again and just be friends?
Can we move on to the next level?
Does Jeongim still bother you?
- Did I say that? - You seem that way.
Do you still feel responsible for her life?
It's not like that. It's just my duty as a human being.
Did you know that she was singing?
Yes.
That she was on my show too?
Yes.
You knew all about it then.
Of course. I was concerned.
She was being so foolish. Of course I was concerned.
I don't know what's in that brain of hers.
When do you think we can meet comfortably?
Jeongim... What is she to you?
Why are you being so serious?
Tell me. What does she mean to you?
What does she mean? Don't ask me that.
How am I? What do you think?
To me, you're...
You scare me.
Anything else?
You scare me and I feel sorry for you...
What do I mean to you? Who am I?
You're not comforting me. You ridicule me.
I want to be comforted. For real...
If you're really my friend, you should be able to comfort me.
What are you thinking about?
Sorry. I have to go somewhere.
- Where? - Sorry.
I guess it's not popular. There are so many left.
- This is really popular. - No way. The film was just released.
But the theme song's great. Have you listened to it?
- No... - Listen to it later. It's quite good.
Okay...
Cheer up, Nam Jeongim!
You can do many other things besides singing.
Don't feel disappointed.
It's so hard being a friend.
What's this?
- Your contract. - Contract?
Yes. Our company is going to recruit you officially.
We'll discuss your schedule and interviews and decide together.
Read it at home and tell me if you have any concerns.
I don't know what to think.
- Let's go. - Excuse me?
Let's have a party to celebrate.
Okay.
Let's go.
Get in.
Where are we going?
I'm not kidnapping you. Come on.
It's so nice here.
What should we have?
Congratulations, singer Nam Jeongim.
Thank you.
Taeho!
