The violinist who miraculously woke up
after being unconscious for over 10 years.
It's true. What's wrong with selling tickets with that story?
- Hey. - Did you think I'd thank you
if you stopped me from going through with it?
I'm okay with it. I don't care if I'm being used.
- How can you not care? - I don't care!
I can play the violin that I love so much...
I can perform on stage again
and Uncle, who abandoned me...
might see me as a result...
and come back to find me.
So what if I'm being used?
I'm fine with it.
I'm willing to be used, so who are you to butt in?
- Who do you think you are? - I don't want that.
The person I like... No.
The woman I like, getting hurt...
is the last thing I want.
You'll get hurt.
What if you end up hating music, which you love so much?
- What if you get more hurt? - I'll be the one to get hurt
and I'll be the one to be used.
As long as I can play the violin...
I should be thankful for an opportunity like this
as someone in my position.
I'll pretend I didn't hear anything.
I'm going to perform on stage no matter what happens.
I feel like many people will come to see you overcome your hardship.
Who do you think you are? Who are you to stop me? Is it because...
- I'm being used to sell tickets? - I don't want that.
The person I like... No.
The woman I like, getting hurt...
is the last thing I want.
Hey. What is it, Chan?
Why aren't you home? Did you leave again?
- Yeah, just for a moment. - But...
does Ma'am have to practice all night long?
- Did she call you? - Yeah. She called Jennifer.
She said she's spending the night in the practice room with the concert coming up.
- Geez, what if she gets sick? - The practice room?
Okay. Sleep soon.
I told them to turn off the lights.
Where are you going at this hour?
Oh, I have to meet someone in the orchestra practice room.
No one's there. I just checked and turned off the lights.
Pardon?
Then where could she be?
[Episode 23: Consolation]
- Hello, Uncle. - Good morning, Uncle.
We're sleeping over in Chan's room to strengthen our teamwork.
We even wore matching pajamas to become one in body and spirit.
- What does that mean? - It's a good thing.
What is this? Did you not sleep? It doesn't look like you did.
Don't worry.
His face tells me something's going on.
Oh, when did you...
It's me.
I packed some clothes for Seo Ri to change into.
If it's not too much trouble, can you deliver them to her?
Oh, sure.
I'm worried Seo Ri might get sick.
She must be very busy with practice.
I'd be relieved if that were the case.
Who are you to butt in? Who do you think you are?
Ms. Junior!
Seo Ri!
What?
I would have left too if I were her.
How could she come back after hearing such harsh words?
You're so mean. I don't even want to see you right now.
What is it, Woo Jin? Did you cut yourself?
Geez, be more careful.
Let me see. Are you okay?
What are you going to do about this?
You're not the type to say that kind of thing.
Does it sting?
Why did you do that?
I don't know. Why did I do that?
Hey, Jin Hyun. Stop talking and get back to work.
What are you going to do about your pretty hand? This is upsetting.
- Let me see it. - It's fine.
I can't believe you. Why did you have to...
Look at your face.
Hey. Just go. I don't want to see your face. Go home early.
Goodness. Why didn't you come yesterday?
Goodness.
- I waited for you. - For me?
I live right in front of this park
but I don't come out very often because my legs hurt.
But I heard a beautiful sound, so I looked out the window
and saw you playing that every day.
Your sound is so beautiful that listening to it
makes me forget about my pain and puts me in a good mood.
It looks like you fought with someone.
Pardon? How did you know?
No, your hand. It looks like you fought with it.
Take a break. It's been hours already.
Your hands and chin must hurt a lot.
Have I been practicing for a long time?
Huh? It does't hurt at all though. Is it because I'm having fun?
It hurts.
It's...
not fun.
It looks like Seo Ri is practicing until late at night again.
Ripened kimchi, Cordyceps...
- Pardon? - Pu'er tea.
There are things that become better the longer you leave them.
But uncomfortable feelings between two people
don't get any better the longer you leave them.
The distance between two people is often because what should have been said
was swallowed and kept to themselves.
Before those unsaid words
distance you even more...
it's better to return things to how they were.
Oh, Teacher.
Was there an orchestra practice today?
She came to see me earlier.
I don't think I can perform in the festival, Teacher.
I was so excited at the thought of being able to perform again
that I couldn't see anything else.
What are you practicing so hard for?
When someone asked me that, I couldn't answer confidently.
I couldn't say that I play the violin or that I'm performing on stage.
The truth is, I knew since I started practicing.
I can't recover my skills to the point of performing, no matter how hard I try.
I knew, but I pretended not to.
I really wanted to perform on stage.
But if I keep pretending and go up on stage
I'll end up in a more miserable situation.
But I was truly happy while I practiced.
Thank you for giving me the chance, Teacher.
Woo Seo Ri!
I went to Chaeum looking for you, but no one was...
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said any of that. I didn't want you to get hurt
but I ended up hurting you even more. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
That's not true.
There definitely would have been another way
but I let my emotions get in the way of thinking clearly.
If I hadn't said that, I wouldn't have hurt you like this. Because of me...
You were right.
Someone saw my hand earlier and said...
She said it looks like I fought with it.
When I enjoyed playing, I was proud of my callused hands
but right now...
I'm embarrassed of them.
If I go up on stage like this, I'll end up like this hand.
I'll want to hide out of embarrassment.
I can't use my mom's violin
to stand on a stage where I can't perform confidently.
But because of me, your chance to find your uncle...
I'm not a little kid anymore.
I just couldn't say it out loud because I was scared
but I know that Uncle abandoned me a long time ago.
If I stand on stage with excuses like that
I might no longer enjoy music, just like you said.
I could end up hating it.
And I'm sorry too.
I let my emotions get in the way of thinking before I said all of that.
Thank you for stopping me.
For preventing me from hating music that I love so much.
And...
for butting in.
I was scared.
I was scared I got involved in someone's life in the wrong way again.
I was scared I ruined something by butting in again.
This must be the spot.
Good things happen every time we come here.
Do you mean that? Are you really not selling the house? Really?
How are you here? I thought the boat wasn't sailing today.
I missed you, Mister.
Every time I wanted to see you but didn't know where you were
I ran into you here.
I'd better come here every time I want to see you.
That won't happen anymore. We're going to be together.
I don't want there to be distance between us. I won't swallow my words anymore.
If I'm worried or sorry, I'm going to say so.
I'm going to tell you everything.
So if you have anything you want to say, just say it.
My heart is pounding really hard
my legs feel weak, and my hands are trembling.
I think I might...
- have low blood sugar. - Blood sugar?
Yes, blood sugar. I think I'm trembling because I haven't eaten anything.
I'm only saying this because you told me to tell you everything.
Can we go eat something?
Of course. Let's go.
Let's go eat spicy rice cakes with the coupon we won.
You should eat a proper meal. Eat an egg first.
It's not good to eat spicy food first.
Okay, I will. I'm so excited.
- Oh, it's okay. - You must be tired. Give it to me.
I'm okay though...
Thank you.
18, 19.
- Hello, Uncle. - Good morning, Uncle.
- Hey. Good morning, guys. - You look good today.
- You must have slept well. - Yeah.
Hey, but do you have to wear matching pajamas?
Of course. This is all for good teamwork.
Dongsour provided us with all the clothes.
My father is a little rich.
Oh, but what are you going to do for us if we win a medal?
What? Do I have to do something for you?
Is this only new to me?
It's going to happen, so be prepared.
- Why should I... - You're coming, right?
Don't you have any interest in Uncle? He can't because of One Music Festival.
Hey, how do you know my schedule?
But you're free during Chan's singles competition. You'll be there, right?
- Can you come? - Of course. I'll be there.
I'd better do well.
We're going to go jogging. See you later.
I'll look forward to your gift.
- Here. - Mine too.
Why should I...
The person I like... No.
The woman I like...
Deok Goo!
Deok Goo?
- Did you sleep well? - Yes.
Oh yeah. I forgot to tell you something important.
Pardon?
Your hair looks nice.
I'm thirsty.
Good morning.
You must be very busy with practice. Are preparations going well?
Oh, I'm not doing that anymore.
Why aren't you asking me about it?
I figure it's not a good thing, so I don't want to make you talk about it.
Oh, and to Chan...
It's better not to tell him. His competition is right around the corner.
Are you sick? Why are you taking medicine?
They're just vitamins.
The doctor I work for gave these to me as a gift.
Oh, Doctor Kim Hyung Tae?
- How do you know his name? - I saw his award plaque
and noticed that he has the same name as my friend.
This is what you call a hip-hop mentality. Yeah.
Oh, is there a singer by the name of Kim Hyung Tae?
My friend's dream was to become a singer.
Kim Hyung Tae.
Born in 1959.
He's known for "Love Waterwheel," "Slug, Go, Go, Go"
"Hey, Hey, Let's go," etcetera.
That's not him. I guess he didn't become a singer.
I wonder what happened to Soo Mi and Hyung Tae.
[Seo Ri's Nursing Hospital]
Hello?
Yes. Any news?
Oh, it's not that.
After her guardians stopped coming, the hospital fees were always deposited
but that stopped for the first time this month.
Huh? Where are you going, Aunt?
I came to pick up a CD with music that Seo Ri likes.
Aunt. Where are you going?
Let go. You don't have anything to do with me anymore.
Aunt, where are you going?
Aunt. Aunt, where are you going?
Aunt! Aunt!
Don't kick Seo Ri out. If Uncle and Aunt don't come, I'll be her guardian.
The hospital fees are being deposited again.
Who's doing that?
Do you still have no idea who deposited the hospital fees?
I don't know if it's just a coincidence
but some man came to find out that Woo Seo Ri woke up
- and the payments stopped after that. - A man?
One of our nurses saw him, but she couldn't see his face because of his hat.
I didn't have anyone else to call regarding Woo Seo Ri.
I was wondering if you knew anything.
No, I don't know either.
Have you yet to receive a call after reporting her missing?
I see.
Thank you.
A man with a hat.
If it stopped after he found out that she woke up
it must be him.
Who could have done that for 11 years?
Mr. Kim. Mr. Kim!
Isn't that Mr. Kim?
- Where is he going? - He's quitting.
Pardon? He's always worked his ass off to make as much money as he could.
Did he win the lottery? Or does he no longer need the money?
I'm sorry for worrying you.
It's okay as long as it was your decision to quit.
I have to go meet with the chairman.
We still have to make the festival happen.
Hello?
Oh, I see.
Oh, okay.
- What is it? - Hang on.
The police requested an arrest warrant for a man who was drinking and driving
and drove off the road onto the sidewalk.
- He had a blood alcohol level of 0.6... - Whoa.
Is this Chairman Byung Gyu Chul?
Gosh, our chairman likes alcohol way too much. He should have been careful.
It's really too bad...
- but let's work even harder. - Okay.
Okay.
Do you know something?
I heard about it when Mr. Shim Myung Hwan
called because he was worried about Seo Ri.
I don't think he knew about the chairman's intention either.
Anyway, your reason is understandable.
I guess I don't have to kill you.
What's this? Hurry up.
Wow.
Wow, it's ribs! Wow!
This is amazing. It looks delicious.
It's Jennifer!
Chan, I see you train in a beautiful place.
Jennifer. What brings you all the way here?
With nationals just around the corner, I made short rib stew
with abalones which will give you strength.
- Who's this? - Is this your mother, Chan?
She's so beautiful.
No, no. I'm not Chan's mother.
Then who are you?
Please call me Jennifer.
- Whoa. - No way.
- Please enjoy. - Thank you for the meal!
- Thank you, Jennifer. - My pleasure.
Chan, please take care of the rest.
Good luck, everyone.
- Good luck! - Good luck!
I'd like three of these.
It comes in two colors. Would you like to mix it up?
No. They need to be the same. They're one in body and soul.
Chick. Dad's home.
Huh? Chick's house. Chick.
Chick! Chick!
Your Chick is right here.
I expanded his house to go with his new size.
That scared me.
- Oh, you're here. - Hi, Uncle.
- What are these bags for? - You asked for a gift.
We meant after we win a medal.
Oh, really? What do we do? You already accepted your gift.
That just means you have to win. Good luck.
- Uncle! We... - Don't say I love you.
- We... - Don't do it!
- Thanks, Mr. Gong. - For what? The chick?
Or the chicken house?
That too. But thank you for being good to my friends.
And for being the old Mr. Gong again.
The festival starts tomorrow, right? Good luck.
And remember to eat.
That laugh is a little sudden. Why are you laughing?
I don't think it's just the chick that grew.
Good luck to you too. Oh, and Chan.
- Yeah? - Don't...
- Geez. Don't say that. - Don't, don't, don't.
- Geez, don't say that. - Don't, don't!
This is the final festival program with the violin duet excluded.
What do you mean?
Even if you weren't selected for your skills, this can be a good opportunity.
Yes?
Oh, Teacher.
Geez.
Hello?
Oh, you're looking for someone?
What's your relationship to this person?
Yes.
Okay, one moment, please.
What's the person's name?
Woo Seo Ri.
30 years old.
Female. Okay.
[2 Dead and 19 Injured in a Collision in Hyein-Dong]
[2 Dead in Hyein-Dong Crash]
[Hyein-Dong Car Accident...]
[Episode 24 will air shortly.]
The festival is really right around the corner.
But how sad.
I was looking forward to seeing you perform.
Are you really sad?
Pardon?
Why does someone who has it all worry about Seo Ri?
What do you mean?
Since you were 17 years old at the time, I just saw it as childish jealousy.
I have a feeling many people will come to see you overcome your hardship.
Do you know why I liked Seo Ri's performances?
She might not have followed the score, but I saw how much she enjoyed music.
So I was curious about how she'd play the next time
and looked forward to it.
You're already an accomplished musician.
People look up to you and want to be like you.
Don't torture yourself by comparing yourself to others.
I hope you know that you've earned the right to enjoy music.
Please don't let your perfectionist ways get in the way of your enjoyment.
You don't know...
anything about me.
Paeng. Isn't it nice out?
- Why aren't you sleeping? - I'm just...
enjoying the nice weather.
Oh, are preparations for the festival going well? You're practicing so hard.
Yes. It's going very well.
Damn it. I want to watch, but it overlaps with my competition.
I'll go cheer you on on the last day. It starts tomorrow, right?
Yes. We have to go a few days early to adjust to the water.
If I win, there's something you have to do for me.
If I finish first in the singles competition...
spend the day with me.
Of course. Let's have a party.
Not with everyone. Just the two of us.
Let's go out. Just the two of us.
Okay.
I really want to win!
- Okay. Did we remember everything? - Yes.
- Wait! - Ms. Junior!
- Seo Ri! - I want to go with you.
What for? You can just come on the last day for the classical concert.
I'm curious, and I want to help out in some way. I'll hand out water.
You're so loyal. Get in. We're going in my car.
Okay.
- Come with me. - Pardon?
Hey, let's go in two cars. That'll be more comfortable.
- What for? Let's just... - Okay, go ahead. Get out of here.
Get me there safely, Jin Hyun.
Okay, sure. Get in.
Get in.
We might have to move the seats back.
Oh, sure.
Please drink this.
Thank you, Seo Ri.
Oh, thank you.
- I'm so thirsty. - Senior, have some water.
Drink up.
Thank you, Ms. Junior.
That's better.
I'm fine.
I'll have some of this.
Wait, I already drank out of that...
Who cares?
I have unopened ones. Dot, dot, dot.
Keep up with the tempo! Keep your legs aligned!
- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!
- We can do it! - We can do it!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
[One Music Festival]
[The 1st Night K-Pop Festival]
Stay in sync.
The competition's tomorrow! Give it all you've got!
[Jazz Night]
- Good work. - Good work.
Good work. Good work.
Wow, it's finally the last day.
It's finally here.
- Don't let your guard down. - Yes, Ma'am.
- Please cool down the color. - Sure, no problem.
Ouch, that hurts.
Let me see. Is your hand okay?
It's just a small splinter.
But it's your hand.
- Ms. Junior! - Yes, Senior?
- Please help me with this. - Sure, no problem.
Thank you.
This way.
About the "Aquarium" stage...
It seems too cruel to make Seo Ri watch the classical concert.
Why are you handing those out as a stage design staff member?
Who cares who does it? I'm not doing anything anyway.
Let's start the rehearsal.
I'm tired.
- Let's stay like this for just a moment. - Pardon?
What is that for?
Wake me up when the song is over.
- Pardon? Um, but... - I'm going to sleep.
- Why do you keep looking at me? - I'm not.
I saw you.
I want to stay longer, but we should go.
Thanks for letting me nap.
I'm okay though.
- Aren't you coming? - Yes, I'm coming!
Hey, hey. Pungjin High. Pungjin High.
Yoo Chan, look.
[Pungjin High]
You have to destroy that punk in the singles competition.
I feel like we're slowing you down.
Me too. Just because we wanted to win a medal.
Hey, not that again. It's natural to want to win a medal.
And...
I'm Yoo Chan.
- I'll be just fine. - Hey, Taesan High.
- Coach wants us. - Okay. Let's go.
It's finally the day. Since you practiced like it's the real thing
just do as you practiced. Don't feel too stressed
and modestly be the first ones to finish.
Okay. Let's destroy this place!
- Yes, Sir! - Yes, Sir!
- We can do it! - We can do it!
Let's go!
I felt like I had it all after my father got rich
but I might actually cry if we don't win a medal today.
- We'll win one. - Right?
I know this kid's always quiet
but why are you so quiet, Deok Soo?
I'm so nervous I have to pee. I've never wanted something so badly before
in my 19 years. Geez, I have to pee so badly.
Hey, hey, hey. Don't overthink it.
We practiced really hard for this.
Let's just think about that. Okay?
Don't think! Feel!
- Don't think! Feel! - Here.
Taesan! Taesan! Let's go!
The team rowing competition of the 75th annual nationals will begin.
The athletes must be nervous at the moment.
- Attention! - Attention.
Go! And they're off!
Sorry, guys!
That's okay. Stay calm. Do as you've always done.
It looks like an accident has occurred.
- Stay in sync! Good! - You can do it!
Pungjin in third, Soosung in fourth, Hyupjung in first, Songji in second
and Taesan in fifth.
Taesan High, you can do it! Go, go!
Go! Let's go!
Taesan in fifth is slowly starting to move up!
As a result of their powerful comeback, they're now in third!
Pungjin in third, Soojung in fourth
and Songji in fifth place now.
That's right! You can do it! Chan! Pull! Pull!
What the heck? She should be the coach.
Let's go! Pull!
With the finish line getting closer, Taesan is right behind first and second!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
The race is almost over. The athletes are in their last stretch!
Okay, they've passed the finish line!
Pungjin in first, Soojung in second, and Taesan in third!
The race is over!
Chan!
Hey, thanks, guys.
We won a bronze medal!
- We won! - We won bronze!
We can't go on if the sound can't be improved.
It's not like we're in a concert hall. We're outside.
You should take that into consideration.
No. I can't accept this.
Do everything you can to make it perfect by the final rehearsal.
Director.
I didn't get a chance to talk to you after dropping out of the concert.
I'm sorry for going back and forth.
I guess you're not that desperate to play the violin
if you're able to give up so easily.
It wasn't easy.
I stopped because I'm so desperate.
I want to like it for longer even if that means slowing down.
I love music more than anything, so I don't want to fight and be chased
just because I'm in a rush.
Enjoying it comes before being good at it.
If I get a chance to truly enjoy it, I'll start over then.
Oh, I guess someone like you could think I'm being ridiculous.
Someone like me? What do you mean?
You're already perfect.
You've accomplished everything you could have wanted.
- Me? - The truth is, I cried my eyes out
at your solo recital.
I thought you looked amazing on stage, but I felt jealous too.
You're jealous of me?
I look forward to a perfect festival.
You know I'm really proud of you, right?
You should have been perfect.
Then he wouldn't have shown interest in another girl from a regular high school.
Kim Tae Rin has amazing connections.
Her mom is a famous pianist, and her uncle is...
Do you know why I liked Seo Ri's performances?
She might not follow the score, but I could see how much she enjoys music.
Don't torture yourself by comparing yourself to others.
You're already perfect.
You've accomplished everything you could have wanted.
I love music more than anything, so I don't want to fight and be chased
just because I'm in a rush.
Enjoying it comes before being good at it.
Good job!
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Coach! - Coach!
Lift your head, Han Deok Soo. It's okay.
- You did well. - It's okay. We got bronze.
Let's go.
I'm proud of you guys.
- Two, three. - Taesan! Taesan! Let's go!
People might think Taesan won gold.
Let's take a picture! Please gather around!
- Picture, picture. - Okay.
Yoo Chan. What's wrong?
- What? It's nothing. - Please go up.
- Smile. - Okay.
I'm going to take it now.
One, two, three.
Hey, Director Kim. I tried my best
but this is as good as it's going to get.
Director Kim. Director Kim?
I'll be right there.
Eight, seven, six, five
four, three, two, one.
[Grand Finale Night Classic Festival]
- Director. What do we do? - What's wrong?
Percussionist Lee Soo Hyun had an allergic reaction, so she can't perform.
It must have been something in her sandwich.
"Toy Symphony" is her next piece, right?
Yes. But on the bright side, she's just playing a toy in that one
so anyone can do it.
Not anyone can do it. They still have to read the score and play it on time.
This won't do. I'll do it myself. Please prepare...
Oh, wait a minute.
Can you do me a favor?
But...
If you don't want to do it, I can go up. But...
I wanted to ask you first.
It's up to you.
There's no moon.
What are you doing out here by yourself?
Oh, nothing.
Why aren't you sleeping?
It didn't seem like you were sleeping either, so I got curious.
Why aren't you sleeping?
I just couldn't fall asleep.
There's usually a reason when you can't fall asleep.
I keep thinking about when I was on stage today...
but I don't know why.
I feel like I liked it
but it also felt awkward
exciting, and uncomfortable at the same time.
It clearly happened not long ago...
but I'm not sure if it really happened
and if I was really up on that stage.
It doesn't feel real. I feel like
I just had a dream or something.
But I have no idea, no matter how hard I think...
I'm not sure if that dream was good...
or bad.
It was a good dream.
I loved your expression when you were up on stage.
Did I really...
look like this?
Did I have this expression when I was on stage?
You did.
You seemed like you were truly happy and enjoying yourself.
So much that it made me happy too.
What a relief.
I was worried...
that I'd be upset.
I was worried going up there like that would only leave me with regret.
I was worried I'd be miserable.
But...
I'm glad I did it.
I guess showing off my talent and getting all the attention
isn't all there is to it.
I think I was truly comforted...
just by being a part of the music.
As long as I can be a part of music in some way...
I think I can be sufficiently happy with that.
Thank you for showing me the answer.
I was even happier because I was on a stage that you made.
Thank you.
I like you.
Me too.
Where are you going all of a sudden?
The thing is, my heart is pounding so hard
that I'm afraid you might hear it.
That's okay. What's wrong with that?
But this is my first time with this kind of thing.
- Same here. - Pardon?
Wait, how could you have never kissed anyone at your age...
Anyway...
What were you doing all this time?
I'm not sure.
Let's go.
I was wondering if could do that one more time...
Okay.
- No, one more time... - Again?
Okay.
What I meant to say is
I was wondering if I could see that drawing one more time.
Dot, dot, dot.
Oh, that's what you meant.
Dot, dot, dot.
What do we do?
Mister, you're so cute.
Wow, seriously. I told you it's bad to make fun of people.
