I see a child. And someone else.
His mentor is Moorim's #1 student.
Let him tire.
"4ozs moves 1000lbs?"
I'll beat you.
You helped me. I'll do this.
This dress isn't from you?
Two kids had simlar trauma.
Is a sudden change okay?
Let's watch.
Let's go drink.
What drink got me this drunk?
Oh my head.
- It's a plant. - A plant?
It's an elixir plant Qin Shi Huang had.
It's good for insomnia.
Hey, Shim Soon Duk.
You fall asleep anywhere?
~ MOORIM SCHOOL ~ Episode 07
What's this?
What happened?
Hey, Shim Soon Duk, are you okay?
Wang Chi Ang!
What? I fell asleep?
- Why am I here? - Ooh.
I was that plant.
Why'd teachers do that?
This is weird.
It's locked.
Why'd they move us here?
The exam isn't over!
Sleep well? It's the final test.
The last test is an escape mission.
Get out safely.
Grading is "first come, first served".
First come, first serve?
Escape mission? What?
Escape? He's joking?
Exits are locked. Where do we go?
They said to have fun! I expected this.
Don't worry. Escape will be easy.
Don't be nervous. Don't be nervous.
Really, Prof. Kim, you forgot the important bit.
This room will be on fire.
Use your skills to escape.
- Fire? - See you all outside.
Look around.
It's starting?
Yoon Shi Woo, are you okay?
Where do we get out?
- Hwang Seon Ah, are you okay? - I'm a bit...
I'm going crazy.
Don't worry.
I need to overcome fire trauma.
I needn't worry.
It's no joke. The dean isn't usually so ruthless.
Won't we watch them?
No way.
Won't an escape mission have one obstacle?
- Pardon? - Let's go.
Seon Ah, think.
It's not real danger. Your dad won't kill us.
Calm down, don't worry.
We need to block the smoke.
- What? - That way I can think.
Okay, I'll look.
What made you use their trauma?
Trauma exists to be overcome.
Smoke gives an illusion of fire.
The real fire is inside them, you mean.
- What are you doing? - Take off your coat.
Let's make a bomb. Ice cream and cola will do.
You're calming me down?
There's no ice cream.
Just shoot a fireball.
You can shoot fireballs?
There are three ways to get out.
- It's from here. - Move.
- Are you okay? - I'm a singer.
My lungs are stronger.
I'll help you.
That's the first.
- Break the door? - No.
That'd be blocked.
It's impossible.
What else?
Second is the vent.
Why this way?
There's a vent they may use.
Seon Ah may know.
And last, a window.
A window?
A person can exit the window.
- This is the third floor. - Right.
No choice. Take the vent.
Well? Just gonna watch?
Hey, c'mon.
The smoke lessened.
You blocked the smoke?
You did? Oh, Idol, great.
- Yeob Jung. Let's unite. - What?
If we make a pyramid, we can reach.
Yes, one person could get up and pull us up.
Don't joke. "First come, first served".
Enough. We'll do it.
I got this first, you jerk.
Two hold the base.
I'll go up.
Seon Ah, you jump to the vent.
Choi Ho, how about you?
I...I...
If Yeob Jung went up first, think he'd take you?
I'll hold the middle.
- Go up. - I'm going.
Yeob Jung!
Ariel!
Ariel, are you okay?
Are you okay?
Yeob Jung!
Chi Ang was right.
Would I help you guys?
That jerk!
This is a competition.
Anyway, good luck, losers.
The kids blocked the smoke.
Did they go out the vent?
They're mistaken that's easy.
What? It's just you, Yeob Jung?
Why are you here?
Did you betray the kids and leave alone?
Prof. Yoo Di, the staff isn't necessary.
It should be 6 to 3
but I'm fine alone.
Seems so.
- We're going. - It's all yours.
Yeob Jung, let's start?
The window is left.
Let's exit there.
Find a rope.
Yeob Jung.
That jerk riles me.
The fire Professor referred to was Yeob Jung.
This should do it. I'll go first.
You won't abandon me?
Seon Ah isn't like Yeob Jung.
Choose friends wisely.
- See you there, Ariel. - Yeah.
- Is your arm okay? - My arm?
Yep, nothing serious.
I'm going up.
Be careful.
If they overcome trauma,
instead of self-training,
it's a group effort aiding each other.
That's the aim.
Our school teaches that.
Shall we go wait for them?
We can get down.
I'll go first. Be careful.
She's climbing.
What? Not going?
- I will. - You can do it.
You showoff.
Be careful, Ariel.
You're really okay?
This won't do. Wait here.
Get on my back.
What?
Get on my back.
No...
They're taking time.
Here they come.
Seon Ah is first, as ever.
My legs...
Good job.
Dad!
So where's Yeob Jung?
He didn't come?
He ran off alone. He may have fallen.
Serves him right.
Stop it! It's over!
If you'd all exited from the vent, we'd let you go.
Since he came out alone, I had fun with him.
Here, take it.
Mid-terms are over.
Remember one thing.
If this had been real,
the foe who set the fire would grab Yeob Jung
and you'd lose a comrade.
Comrade, my butt.
Yeob Jung betrayed us and ran.
If he betrays you, he's not a comrade?
He's still your friend even if he betrays you.
You're responsible for his betrayal.
Don't forget it.
What's this?
I feel uncomfortable.
I'm so angry.
Scartled me. Hwang Seon Ah!
What's up with her?
I don't blame her.
Her own dad put her in a fire.
I don't think that's why.
Then?
She's mad because she can't refute it.
Dean Hwang was correct.
If he betrays us...
is he not a comrade?
I lost this time, Chi Ang.
Hwang Moo Song
doesn't know I'm here?
Everyone at Moorim assumes you're dead.
We never know when another attack may come.
Your survival is only known
to Moorim's President and me.
What's Moo Song doing?
He's Moorim School dean.
Moorim School?
Even Moorim League doesn't know who attacked you.
Do you know who Jeok Poong is?
Moorim League is up to something.
You mean Jeok Poong?
Power to rule the world
is naturally coveted.
Do you have ideas who Jeok Poong are?
Jeok Poong (destructive force) is everywhere.
Won't coveting something
let Jeok Poong grow in one's heart?
I'll figure out Jeok Poong's identity
and change their power.
You...
Are you okay?
You...must secretly leave with the Key.
- President. - Yoon.
Hold the Cheon-ui-joo.
I can't leave.
I'll help you find Jeok Poong.
Your comrade, Musul expert, Hwang Moo Song.
What?
Don't trust him too much.
Hwang Moo Song.
You heard?
Moorim League made Chae Yoon successor.
What?
Se Ryung is his girl.
Well, he got it all.
Yoon Shi Woo. Wang Chi Ang.
Your mentoring is over.
Well, exams are over.
Mentoring over!
Go eat breakfast.
Dean?
I still need a lot of training.
I'd like Soon Duk as my mentor.
If she trains me,
I can be Moorim's ace.
You don't need mentors.
Classmates can't mentor each other.
Pardon?
Congrats on topping exams, Seon Ah!
That's my roommate.
What? You did well.
This exam was fun, right?
It's my first mentoring.
Like Dad said, mentoring is rewarding.
Chi Ang works hard.
Surprisingly good.
Well...
Yoon Shi Woo is amazing.
Mentoring is sadly over.
For sure.
Yay!
- Sang Man, still low. - Choi Ho, it's OK.
Don't get comfy after exams.
Study and play, OK?
Yes, sir.
Shi Woo and Chi Ang are in Advanced.
Why am I in Beginners?
We all escaped, so why...
Escaped? What?
I was in danger,
choked by smoke, scaling walls.
You slept?
Are you my friends?
- What do you mean? - Bad dream?
He hasn't eaten. Let's go eat.
It's okay.
Hey, but Yeob Jung...?
You did this all night?
Let's go eat.
You eat.
Ariel.
Mentor me? I prefer you to Advanced class.
What's with you?
Chi Ang, I'll feel hurt.
I got you into Advanced.
So, first day in Advanced?
We'll learn real Hapkido.
Prof, Soon Duk got injured yesterday.
- She needs First Aid. - No, I don't!
- I'm fine, Prof. Daniel. - Really?
Let's see.
I'm fine.
Ow!
You can't spar.
Soon Duk, no sparring for a month.
Professor!
Shi Woo, Soon Duk won't listen.
- Take her to First Aid. - Hear that?
Let's go.
- I can go by myself. - Let's go.
Chi Ang, you were ahead of Shi Woo in the escape.
You wanted to beat him.
How's it feel?
I feel like I lost.
What?
It's nothing.
On my first day, teach me heaps.
Where's the first aid kit?
There it is.
This will do.
Oh my.
Ow, my butt hurts.
My arm hurts.
Ow.
An idol up close makes you nervous?
What?
This should work.
I'll do it.
Or I can ask Seon Ah after class.
Or ask Professor Yoo Di.
Did I say I'd do it?
Hey.
I'll do it.
Since we skipped class...
let's get some fresh air.
- It's weird. - What is?
In the past, before an album release,
I'd struggle to come up with good songs.
I'd act out with my manager and band.
You know how bad I was.
- But here... - Song ideas flow?
By graduation, you'll have good songs?
Graduation?
You stay for your ear?
Since I arrived...
my ear problems amazingly are almost gone.
I'm glad.
Why do you go here?
I wanted to go to college after high school.
Fees were too much.
I'm the breadwinner.
Should I study in debt
or go straight to work?
- That was my dilemma. - Ah.
Moorim School is weird
but no fees is more odd.
Right.
So I go behind Dad's back.
- You dad doesn't know? - Mm.
Moorim freaks him out.
He's overboard. Bam, bam!
He thinks it's brawling.
First Advanced class. How was it?
It was interesting.
Can I ask something?
What?
What was your wish?
Not confident?
Who's isn't?
Fine, no deals. Grant me a wish.
But, what's the wish?
A date.
What wish did you ask of Soon Duk if you beat Shi Woo?
Ah, that?
- It's why you worked hard. - I did.
A date. A date with me. That's it.
- What's that look? - Are you joking or not.
Joking.
See a movie, eat good food.
A date is nice.
Why look at me? Go.
Shouldn't Shi Woo have done this?
- You don't want to? - What'd you two do?
You missed class.
We just talked.
Done.
Didn't you quit the chicken job?
It's not the only place.
Work is my life.
I'll go. Ow.
Take it easy.
Seems complicated, huh?
Where are you going?
I need a new job.
I-
You'll ask your dad to get me a job?
Skip it.
How can you look while hurt?
It's fine.
It's a splint?
- Rest today. - Don't worry.
Bye.
Hey, Shim Soon Duk.
What's with you?
You're a bit weird.
True. It's weird if I'm serious.
Go.
OK. Bye.
Chae Yoon needs time to recover his energy.
For sure.
He was in a coma for years.
He struggles to recall events.
He must want to piece together his memories.
We need to feed him pieces.
Young! Joon!
Hwang Moo Song.
Was it you...
As expected.
He was almost Moorim League heir.
He's determined.
After 18 years in bed, I see why.
We'll go to Korea.
Discharge him.
My back hurts.
This place is huge.
Work is endless.
Oh my.
I'll do this much today and go.
What's this?
She has many accessories.
She won't notice a missing one.
Oh my, so pretty.
It's wrong, wrong.
Shim Soon Duk's blind dad.
Don't tempt me...
Son, your call is a surprise!
Surprise? I need to hear you.
Your voice is my multi-vitamin,
cool, refreshing, energizing.
Is something up?
Of course.
I made Advanced class.
High pass student.
Really?
You worked hard, son.
Watch. I'll do so well, Father will acknowledge me.
So I'll take you to his mansion in China.
Wait.
Mansion or annexe
doesn't matter.
Second or not,
I just need my son.
Second (wife/mistress)?
I'm recharged. I'll go, Mom.
He put on a brave front.
- You came. - Ooh, scared me!
- You scared me. - Why were you there?
- You haven't left? - Ah, okay.
This was in there.
You heard everything?
Yes, I heard everything.
Chi Ang puts on a brave face for me.
For you?
I sent him as a newborn to China.
They disliked a mistress's baby.
He ran off to Korea sometimes
to see me.
Whenever he got dragged back, I cried a lot.
When he says silly things, jokes or acts cute,
he knows I smile.
~ looking back, I was so young ~
Repeat.
- "Mer"! - "Mer"!
- "Mermaid Princess." - "Little Marmaid."
Forget it.
Only you treat me this way.
So I like you more.
If you ever cry, come here
to the right place.
What wish
would Soon Duk grant if you beat Shi Woo?
~ I gotta run, run. Run ~
~ I will see you smile brightly ~
~ when my dream day comes ~
She wasn't serious now...
She wasn't sincere.
His dad says he's immature and jokes around.
Oh, he's a good, thoughtful boy.
He's considerate.
He grew up well.
He's tall and handsome.
Right?
Sure. If I had such a son, I'd be a happy mistress.
Older women need 3 things.
Kids, money, friends.
I have none of them.
Isn't Soon Duk your daughter?
She's from his first marriage.
I see.
Even with no money or kids,
you have something.
What is it?
- A friend. - Friend?
Aren't we friends?
We're friends?
Sure, friends.
Alright, friend!
Form a Second Wives Club?
Can you not say that?
I bet that term made you mad.
Fine. Partnered women
who act classily single.
Cool!
- Singles club! - Cheers!
- One shot! - One shot!
[ CEO Wang ]
Oh, my son's calling.
- Wait. - I will. - Wait.
I'll be in Korea a while.
In Korea?
You'll stay here?
Sure, where else?
Oh, honey.
That's my plan. Bye.
Why will he stay a while?
- Hey! - He's never done that.
Hey! Tell your son to come.
- Ask him to drop by. - Alright. Hold on.
- Hold on. - Tell him to drink with us.
- Off to play piano? - Yes.
Is any alcohol left?
Alcohol?
Without your piano, Shi Woo won't sleep.
Oh right.
I'll play for 5 minutes.
Don't be like this too.
- You're weird. - I'll be weird tonight.
Tomorrow, I'll be myself.
You weren't joking.
Soon Duk is so nice-
tough and cool.
Even I find her pretty.
You're the same,
tough and cool.
Why'd you stop?
I'm not pretty?
You're pretty too.
So can't you do something with Shi Woo?
You like him.
My Shi Woo, no... I don't like him that way.
- It's not romantic? - Right.
It's platonic.
- Just his fan. - His fan?
I strangely care for him.
But not as a man.
[ Hiring ]
You hired someone so take the sign down.
You ordered 5 chickens and won't take them?!
Let me take a drumstick for $1.
Really!
Pay up before I call the police.
Pay me now!
I'll buy one.
Soon Duk.
How come kids won't work?
It's a lie there are no jobs.
You won't pay penalty rates.
If I match minimum wage, work here again?
First apologize.
Oh my, didn't I apologise?
You didn't.
Minimum wage. Night rate.
Then I'll come tomorrow.
Um, can I pay late hours with chicken?
No way!
By graduation,
you'll have good songs?
( Innocent smile )
[ Assorted notebooks ]
'Music Note'.
( She was always there, but he hadn't noticed it )
( together )
- A field trip? - Yes.
CEO Wang called this morning.
He'll pay for the trip.
Teachers and students seem tired.
It's a good idea.
Why's CEO Wang sponsor us and Moorim League?
He may not be simply a businessman.
Moorim League President
approved of our aims.
Frankly, he ceased funding us due to no benefit from it.
Yet CEO Wang sponsors us.
He's a generous supporter.
Let me meet him
since he'll even fund our retreat.
Actually...
he felt bad sending his son without him.
He wants to pay us a visit.
He can't come here. You know that.
Despite strict security,
he's a sponsor...
The rules apply to everyone.
I can't enter school?
But you got approval to meet Dean Hwang.
A sponsor can't get in?
'What's hidden is more visible;'
'what's small is more obvious'?
Whatever Hwang Moo Song is hiding will be revealed.
Is curry after I drink
- a coincidence? - Ah, this?
I requested it.
He knows I was drinking.
- You're still at war? - Yep.
- I hate him. - Who'd you drink with?
Me.
Shim Soon Duk, no curry.
Shim Soon Duk?
Not his Ariel?
No clue. He got weird.
Good. I hated "Ariel".
What's good?
- It's trouble. - Why?
What's the worst attack?
What?
- Frontal attack. - Frontal attack?
Is it today's class?
Never mind, Soon Duk.
What?
He wrote music?
Yes. No equipment is slow.
You stayed up?
It's ages since an all-nighter.
No piano lullaby, no sleep?
That's right. Why didn't I hear it?
The pianist was with me.
The pianist? Who is it?
It's Shim Soon Duk?
It's not!
Why'd you yell?
Your ears hurt?
Yelling hurts anyone's ears.
I'm a lot better.
- Don't. - What?
Don't smile. I may like you.
[ Grade Results ]
It's about time. It's an eyesore.
I know. Let's clean bathrooms.
Let's, Beginner.
Guys.
See the Notice.
It will energise you.
What is it?
A retreat?
A field trip?
Must be. Hey, how come!
- Where to? - Not a boot camp?
Can't be.
We studied hard.
- Special vacation? - I'm excited!
Where are we going?
Did something pass?
I think so.
- Dad! - Oh gosh.
It's true? We'll go outside?
All together? Truly?
- Aren't you mad at me? - No, Dad...no-
Dean.
You got a cool idea?
You made us practise here.
We'll go on a trip. Yeah!
Do I lock you up?
Same thing.
I've always been here.
Your dad is Dean.
- I had no choice. - Then...
I can go too?
Aren't you a Moorim student?
- Will school be empty? - No way.
I'll guard it.
What's to steal here
so you Seal us in?
- Want to stay behind? - No.
- Never! - If you're done, go. Drive me nuts.
Go now.
I came to spy.
To find what?
- Destination? - Oh right.
Where'll we go?
Seoul?
The trip's to Seoul?
Are my ears bad?
- Did I hear right? - You did.
A Seoul trip is great.
- Bumpkin. - I oppose her.
I grew up in Sillim-dong.
- I'm from Hapjung-dong. - I'm from Gangseo-gu.
I can see my parents.
I feel I did wrong.
Why? You haven't been to Seoul.
Hush. If I'm glad,
they'll get mad. I'm holding back.
We get free time?
- Let's go to 63 Building. - Right, right!
Ow, hurts.
They don't look like bumpkins
- yet they're simple. - Exactly.
I'm so late. Hey, I'm late.
Wow, so stylish today.
The traffic was bad. Sorry.
You're here?
I'm here...
Are friends formal?
Mistresses Club?
You're confident, independent,
elegant like a crane.
- Do crane legs. - Oh, a crane?
- Chic and elegant? - Right, right!
Oh, I get drinking black-outs.
Draw my bath.
Put in petals.
Take what's left.
Sure.
Put these in the bath?
- Isn't it too soon? - It's itchy. Ow.
- Off to your job? - Mm. Ow.
Hi? Is Soon Duk home?
- Why ask? - Just answer me.
She got a night job.
Then wait for me.
- Don't sleep. - What's this babble?
Wait, don't sleep.
A beauty may visit you.
A beauty, my butt. Hang up.
She asks me to wait.
It feels weird.
I feel chills.
She wants me to wait.
Don't sleep?
She changed the song?
I'm late saying this.
Thank you.
Yoon Shi Woo!
This dress isn't from you?
Not me.
Why am I hiding?
Why'd it cut off?
No, this looks weird.
Shim Soon Duk.
I was off to practice.
I heard the piano so...
Why'd you hide?
Who hid?
My bag dropped, so I went to pick it up.
Then you should get up.
It's 'staff paper', right? For music notes.
No, it isn't!
You got this for me?
No, I didn't!
So, well, I just...
I passed a stationery store and went in.
They had many notebooks, you know?
After so long, it was cool.
I hadn't seen a music notebook since high school.
So I just...
~ baby, I was young back then ~
~ baby, I was a coward back then ~
~ I thought you'd always stay ~
~ so I could reach out to you ~
~ baby, I will protect you ~
~ baby, I'm not afraid of anything ~
~ Will you stay by my side? ~
~ Will you hold me tight? ~
I'm sorry.
No, that's not it...
I have to go to work.
Shim Soon Duk.
What's the matter?
Nothing.
Shim Soon Duk.
You two, what's up?
I'm late for work. I'll go.
Shim Soon Deok, hold on.
What's going on?
- Wang Chi Ang. - Yoon Shi Woo. So?
~ yeah I'm alive, watch, I'll arise many times~
~ yeah I'm alive, watch, now close your eyes and feel me ~
~ MOORIM SCHOOL ~
What do I do?
Soon Deok, can we talk?
The kiss is nothing.
I forgot it.
What happened with you two
doesn't concern me.
- Let's go on a date. - Don't play around.
- Play around? - Finally...
the Cheon-ui-joo key is found.
Is it her?
Why's he anxious when I go out?
Why do I have a bad feeling?
I'm grateful, but uncomfortable.
Make it the last time.
What did you do to Soon Duk? What's up?
Shim Soon Duk! Hey!
Excuse me, please move.
