(Assigning vocal parts for the single)

(Coach Chang Jin-young)

(And...)

We're all being shy.

It's nice to meet you.

We met you when we had a meeting, right?

He's considered the best vocal director.

His name is Han Won-jong.

Vocal director...

What does he do...?

More than just singing a song,

I help the singers to express in their
own way, like their own story.

(Coach Han Won-jong will add art
on top of skill)

(Fin.K.L, Super Junior, Brown Eyed Girls)

(He finds an idol-group's
own color)

(Rain, Gummy, Park Hyo-shin, Lyn, Wheesung,
Ock Joo-hyun, Baek Ji-young, etc.)

(The person responsible for bringing out
the emotions and stories)

( of the best vocalists in Korea)

(Han Won-jong,
Hanyang Univ. Music Professor)

Before a song is released,

I'll be going over the very last stage
in the recording studio.

So you'll be directing our singing
when we actually record in studio?

Yes.

FYI, he was my vocal director
when I was in the field, too.

And he made me cry like crazy.

Why did you cry?

There was this one part, and he tried
to bring out the best possible performance.

He repeats until it's achieved.

It's not that you cry often normally?

Let's see if you cry this time then.

(Expect them to be bawling)

Now, let's try one person at a time.

I'm so nervous!

(Even the girl-group members
are nervous)

I don't want to go first.

(A division of labor in a girl-group,
or a competition)

We're being assigned with our own
vocal parts?

(Matching a member to her perfect part)

(Based on how the parts are assigned)

(The center position in their
dance formation changes)

(The main person for the camera
to zoom in also changes)

(But the parts are limited)

(It naturally becomes a competition)

(One who wants a part)

(Show your skill)

(The war over their parts begins now!)

My throat's not in the best condition.

So I'll just go first.

I'll try it.

I practiced constantly
whenever I had a break.

When I'd greet the audience
on stage,

when I go to the theater,

on a bus,

on a train,

while I exercised...

I'm sure everyone around me
got sick of it already.

(Coach Serious)

(She spent a whole week singing)

(Will Ye-won's desperate effort...)

(Pay off in the end?)

(Nervous)

(Counting beat)

(The coaches are watching)

(And one of them is also nervous,
like a mother who raised them)

(The sisters cheer her on
by singing backup)

(Enunciating clearly)

(Counting the beat with her hand)

(She carries on a good rhythm)

(She's not timid about singing at all,
unlike before!)

(On beat with her accurate pronunciation)

(Seems to be going well...)

(Misses the lyrics)

(Ah...)

(Relax, Ye-won!)

(Part C with the highest notes to hit)

(First the words, not now the melody...)

(She was too nervous)

(Taken aback)

(Words, melody, and now the beat...)

(I could've done better...)

(Ye-won's turn ends)

(What did the coaches think?)

(I practiced so much, and
I messed up like a fool!)

Even if you mess up... For example,
let's say you're playing the piano.

Let's say you made a mistake.

But if you come off confident,
it doesn't seem like you messed up.

It's even worse with singing.

You have to be even more confident.

No one would want to hear you sing
if you're not even confident in yourself.

It's not a song that people
just sit and listen to.

It's music for people to see.

So you have to believe in yourself.

"I'm the most beautiful person
in the world!"

"I'm the best!"

By the way...

She came to me for additional
private lessons

and she practiced a lot.

I think she wasn't at her
best condition today.

I feel really bad for the coach.

I wanted to find confidence in myself.

I practiced singing whenever
I had a break.

But it was hard on my throat.

(Hugs)

(Leader Gong embraces
the first member that sang)

(And here...)

(She needs some attention too)

Jin-kyeong's hands got really cold.
Shall we hear her first?

No, Sook...

No? OK.

(The second one to go!)

(Number one from an audition TV show!)

(Totally focused)

(Her eyes change as the song starts!)

(She looks really lonely somehow)

(Carrying on all the worries of the world)

(The high notes are about to come!)

One second.

(Coach Chang Jin-young stops the music)

(What happened?)

Somi.

Can we do it the way we practiced?
Instead of using falsetto?

You can do it.

(Somi tries again)

(Worried)

(Somi may blame the coach)

(But she can't always hide behind
her falsetto)

(That's it!)

Scream it out!

(Goes head-on for the high part)

(But she forgets the words whenever
she hits the high notes)

(Shakes his head)

(Back to using falsetto)

(She tries her best)

(Her fear of hitting the high notes
is the biggest hurdle)

(She gave it all, even her soul)

(She might faint if she sang two songs)

There were specific parts that we
practiced on purpose.

But they didn't work again.

I wish it was better.

I think you need more practice.

You can't just keep singing in falsetto.

You're not able to scream out when you
should, but you constantly suppress it.

So your voice doesn't come out so pretty.

Just like how a person can go through
joy and sadness,

you should be able to sing with
confidence when it's required.

But you keep holding back.

(Teary-eyed)

You should be able to do this
with no problem.

I wasn't trying to make you cry, Somi.

I was helping you to do better.

Don't cry, Somi!

We're in our 30s and we're scared.
I'm sure she's so scared!

(Those in their 40s are also in fear)

I practiced last night, too.

(She's sad that she wasn't able to
show her best)

She was sending me voice messages
late into the night, to early morning.

She called and asked questions, too.

She was good yesterday. I'm just
as sad, but...

I do feel like I'm singing
with the members.

I felt like I was being tested with them.

When what I pointed out for them weren't
fixed, and they were pointed out again,

I felt like I was being pointed out.

I'm usually never scared, even
when I'm on stage.

I really practiced a lot!

(Even in her busy schedule)

(She spent a whole week practicing
every chance she got)

(Regardless of location,
or her hairstyle)

(They seem like her makeup artists,
but they're singing along...)

(Excitement explosion)

When do we actually do her makeup?

(This is how addictive this song is...)

(I'm parched)

(Me too)

You're not even singing yet, why do you
keep drinking water?

(The queen of trot takes her turn)

(She makes it happen every time!)

(Amazing!)

(As an experienced singer, she
finds her own pace)

(She's definitely good, right?)

(She's relaxed enough to dance)

(Full of her trot vibe)

(Shakes head)

(She's working hard at it)

(Wow, she's good!)

(She makes it into a full-on
trot song)

That part was a bit too much.

She's great!

She's definitely a professional!

(But she's not totally satisfied)

Do you remember what we went over
in our lesson?

If you sang like this, it'll make
the whole group seem much older.

I think there's a lot
we have to work on.

Jin-kyeong, you wanna go on?

- Her hands are getting so cold!
- It's like she's dying.

Can she just go on first?

Have some water.

Chae-young is dying, too.

Yes, I am. I'm so nervous!

(A blank stare)

(She looks like she forgot her own name,
let alone the words to the song)

Her lips are pale.

(She takes on the challenge
though she is nervous)

What part would you like to sing?

There was a part that I wanted before.

But now...

(Even the coaches are laughing)

(Not the proper situation...)

We met up often recently.

But I've never seen you like this.

You usually say, "This isn't
hard at all!"

I don't feel like this is that difficult
of a song.

I don't think this will be so hard.

(She was always the confident one)

But today...

I'm really scared suddenly.

I think singing should be
done with joy.

(But why am I scared more and more
that I sing?)

She's dressed so properly today, too.

That's my favorite style of dressing
for a guy.

(A true gentleman)

(The song begins though she is
extremely nervous)

(On beat like a wild horse!)

(It's a torture to hold back laughter)

(A new kind of shock for him)

(Only one who's serious)

(It's even more sad that
she's so serious!)

(She was just crying but
now she's laughing)

(This one's crying)

(She keeps her seriousness
all the way through)

(She even messes up the lyrics)

(Part C, the highest part
everyone's scared of)

(She presses on like a bulldozer)

(Her rhythm stabilizes as she
eases up)

(It's a total mess)

(At least say the right words...)

(She composes herself and
goes on to the second verse)

(Sing it, Jin-kyeong!)

(She lets herself go and
screams the high notes)

(All the listeners can feel it)

(This is Jin-kyeong's very best)

("I think I've finally met myself")

(Started with laughter, but ended up
moving the hearts of the audience)

You must've practiced so much!

More than anything...

Other than the mistake you made early
on because you were nervous,

your rhythm and pitch were great
as the song went on.

It totally shows how much you've practiced.

It was very good! Very energetic.

You fit the song very well, unexpectedly.

You've gotten so much better,
especially your sense of rhythm.

I was surprised at how powerful
you started the song.

I didn't think you'd last more
than the first 8 measures.

(Maybe she didn't have to be
so nervous)

How much did you practice?

Practice?

(The first day they received the song)

Jin-kyeong, can you practice
in your own car?

There's no one else around!

(She got more audience)

This is an unexpected side of you.

You already memorized, we just
got it a few hours ago!

(Where are they going?)

(Ye-won's movie premier)

(UNNIES came to show support
for Ye-won)

(We're a brand new girl-group,
UNNIES!)

(After their fun photo time)

(The theater before the showing)

(We practice even when we play)

Try the first part.

(She had only practiced
the rap part)

(The song transformed into something else)

I think you practiced too much rap.

(So she moves on to the singing part)

(She even took separate private lessons)

(Whenever, wherever)

(She dedicated the whole week
to this song)

I need a break.

Are you done?

You sang it so many times!
(Jin-kyeong's mom, tortured)

You said I was good earlier!

I didn't sing it that many times.

You throat must be hurting.

(Worried)

I hope you do well and they
compliment you.

Did you have a part in mind?

I originally wanted to do the C part.

But it's just way too high.

(Last week)

(She failed even before
the interlude)

(Even with private lessons)

(It's not so easy)

(But she didn't give up,
and practiced everyday)

(And improved by leaps and bounds!)

(Now for an objective evaluation)

(Her son's response awaits)

Mom, look here!

(Was it this?)

(How was Mommy?)

Good, good!

(Made her feel good)

Should I try it again?

Wait, but!

I didn't bring my name tag!

(He tries to change the subject)

(But failed...)

Stop it.

- Mom?
- Just one more time.

Mom!

(Let's calm down for a second)

(Her way of counting the beat)

(Nervous)

(Good!)

(She's encouraged to sing louder)

(She's gotten more relaxed
over the past month)

(Keeping her smile)

(With her perfect English pronunciation)

She sounds different!

(I know!)

(Now it's her dream part,
Part C!)

(Working hard)

(Good!)

(Doing her best until the end)

(But she made a mistake
in Part C)

My legs are shaking!

(Will they say she remained the same?)

(Or that she got better?)

This is yours, right?
Coaches, look at how she practiced!

(Her week's worth of effort
is shown on the lyrics sheet)

I can hear and see how much she
practiced, even without seeing her paper.

Oh, really?

I thought it was great.

Luckily, there are parts
that fit you well.

(Laughing in sadness)

But the song's just too high
for you overall.

(Sook's turn!)

I'd sing it all day
in the car.

And my voice wouldn't come out
after the first day.

I went to the doctor's.

Today's the third day since
I visited a doctor,

but my voice is fully back yet.

(Am I doing well?)

(You're great!)

(My throat!)

(She completes the song
despite her bad condition)

- You got nervous in the middle!
- Why am I so nervous?

We'll divide up the parts and you can
be more strategic and efficient then.

So you won't need to sing
the whole song like this.

But from this process...

I feel like I'm receiving
a great energy.

From all of you.

(Leader Gong, our most trusted member)

Stop it!

It's too much pressure!

I don't feel so nervous about her.

I feel so pressured!

Time to enjoy the show!

Let's enjoy this performance.

(Even as a former member
of one of the best girl-groups)

(Her heart is thumping?)

It's a new challenge for me, honestly.

Hitting the high note is a challenge.

I always took on low to mid parts before.

(During her 2NE1 days)

(Minzy was in charge of
low to mid parts)

And the high note doesn't just
come once.

It just keeps coming
in this song.

It's definitely not an easy song for me.

(Can she hit those high notes?)

(Going into the first
high notes section)

(Pass!)

(Minzy strength shines even more
at the rap part)

(Freely enjoying the groove)

(Like ears being cleansed)

(With her own flow)

(She gives a new life to the song)

(Going into the second
high notes section)

(No need to worry about Minzy!)

I feel at ease.

(Continuous high notes)

(They're no problem for her)

(She finishes the song
without a hitch)

(That's our leader, Minzy!)

I feel so relieved.

(But it wasn't so easy for her)

At least we hear the same way, right?

That was really good.

"At least we hear the same way"?

She's so experienced and it feels like
she knows what's up.

So that was good but...

I wish some things were done differently.

We'll go through those things
as we work together.

It's too difficult of a song for a person
to sing all the way through.

But everyone at least finishes
singing the whole song.

I'm very proud of you guys.

I really enjoyed this time.

I saw a great potential.

By the way...

I wrote some rap lines.

(Shy)

- Did someone tell you to?
- No.

But I wanted to rap!

I want to rap!

I enjoy listening to rap.

I really want to rap!

I want to try it!

I really want to.

If I don't utilize this chance
from UNNIES,

I may never get to try it.

I really want to try rap.

(I'm ready!)

(Time to change determination
to actuality)

(Wow!)

I like the last part.

(She made her attempt
without any basic training in rap)

It was pretty serious all the way through
but in the end...

I wanted to bring up the mood
in the end.

(Sook takes a look)

(The process of making this rap part
on her own)

(She went to meet Kisum
to learn how to rap)

(Despite her busy schedule)

(Jin-young tried writing
her own rap lyrics)

"Hooray!"

No, don't do that!

The lyrics overall are very good
in meaning.

But...

I think we can tighten up
the rhyme and other things.

- Rhyme?
- Yes.

It's a bit awkward to call it a rap part.

The rhyme feel a little forced.

And it feels unnatural, like you're
making it fit into rhythm.

I don't think we can put it
in the album.

But I think it'll be fine
to do it live once in a while.

If it's not on the album then
it doesn't matter.

But I think that encouraged everyone.

(Miran had made her attempt
at rap in season 1)

(He enjoyed it)

(Even gave her a hug after)

(But the actual rap part
was given to her instead)

(I really wanted to try it)

I think we need to have a discussion
about music on our own.

They didn't feel like celebrities at all.

They were even more nervous than
just some people off the street.

They really want good parts.

Most of them want Part C,
the chorus.

Are there parts set for the dance routine?

I think we have to consider that too.

(Coach Kyu-sang & Hwa-young
on the phone)

I was hoping Chae-young and Ye-won
to do the hook part.

But it'll make it seem like three people
are singing at that part.

(The coaches are divided in their opinions)

I thought I was going to die!

(Plop)

I was so stressed out about this!

Somi was so cute when she was crying!

I never realize how young you are normally,
when it's just us hanging out.

But when you cry, I finally realize,
"Oh, she's only 17 years old!"

I went through that a lot, we'd practice
so much and go through monthly check-ups.

Those monthly check-ups are always
done in front of the CEO.

I always cried when I did worse
than I could.

What are the coaches doing?
Still in meeting?

It's a very delicate work!

(Serious discussion continuing
for 20 minutes)

Can you see if I'm doing this right?

(After singing, worrying about dancing.
After dancing, worrying about singing)

(They all get up and practice)

(She's gotten much better)

(Two hours pass!)

They're back!

(Nervous)

We divided up the parts.

We're ready.

We took in under consideration
the words, singing, and the dance.

We thought much about what part will fit
whom the best.

What you want may be different
from what you're good at.

So for the first part...

(The first impression of the song)

(Who will kick off the first part?)

That's...

Somi will start the song off.

(She wanted the part that
mentions G-Dragon)

Her voice sounds very bouncy.

I think Somi will bring a youthful vibe
to the song.

And who'll be singing the next part?

Jin-kyeong...?

Minzy?

- Sook?
- Yes!

I get to be on the first verse finally?

(Sook enters verse one)

I'll help you sing so you can
get on the first verse.

(Due to great coaching)

(Her hidden, clear voice comes out!)

(Dazed)

My voice can be heard
even in the song preview!

I'm so moved.

Then...

For the "Please please please" part...

Minzy can do it.

(She gets to show off her vocal skill
and be up front during their dance)

Everyone will do Part B together.

But Jin-kyeong will do the
last section of that part.

(Everyone complimented her
performance for this part)

(The perfect match for her)

(It must be fate)

(Now for the chorus!)

Jin-young will do the first two lines
of chorus.

Somi will do the part after that.

Minzy will then do the last part.

(The vocal Avengers will take care of it)

(And everyone's dream part...)

The last line...

Who gets to do it?

We haven't decided yet.

I just want to do this one line.

- "I've finally met my water."
- I want it too!

I was told that I need water
in my fortunes.

(Please give me that part)

We were in a huge discussion over this,
with the dance coaches included.

But we decided to do a separate
audition for it.

(Audition to show their different
colors of water!)

I'll try it.

(The youngest sister, Somi)

(Cute!)

(The leader, Minzy)

(With heart)

I go after these two?

(Ye-won needs water in her life)

(Can't lose without a fight!)

(Chae-young's turn)

I'm sorry about that.

(The queen of music
for the older crowd)

(It feels like a different genre)

It's not the same water
we're talking about.

(The comedian, Sook!)

(The proper look)

Jin-kyeong!

(A new dance star, the Kimchi CEO)

(Difficult to even describe
how strange this is)

For the "I think I've met my water" part...

Goes to Chae-young.

(Chae-young!)

(I wanted it!)

For the last part, I think we need more
than music to deliver.

We need someone to deliver an emotion
in front of a camera.

I think Chae-young will bring it out
the most.

She can put a clear period mark there.

I thought the visual part
is important for that section.

(Now going on to the second verse)

Minzy will do the first line.

Sook will do the part after.

Ye-won can do the part after that.

We haven't decided on
who'll do the rap part.

(I even made my own rap!)

The last chorus part...

Ye-won will start it off.

(Anyone in mind for this part?)
Ye-won!

She might feel pressured.

But I hope she can overcome it.

For the next line in chorus...

Jin-kyeong can do it.

I'm very thankful and satisfied
that I get to sing a melodic part.

Jin-young will do the very last part
of the verse.

Then everyone will sing
the next line together.

There are a few difficult parts.

We can get over those hurdles together.

I'll do my best.

(Now it's a melee!)

(Coach Serious' private studio,
after that day...)

(Ms. Duck enters)

(She's so good at this, oddly)

(Late into the night)

Ye-won is practicing
late into the night.

(From basic vocal practice)

(To studying anatomy)

(Taming my own part in
every way possible)

(From sounding like a ghost)

(To confident and strong singing)

(Hey, I'm not so bad!)

(They're perfect when practicing
with the coach!)

(Coach Serious is more excited)

(Ye-won comes back alive)

I hope I can just perform
this well.

(A gift from the Korean Beethoven
for UNNIES!)

Wow!

(This is all for us?)

(Their special speakers arrive)

They look like some modern art pieces!

They're our old stuff, right?

(For the members who liked
his speaker-turned-cello)

I'll get you one each.

Bring your old, favorite things.

(Very unique speakers just for UNNIES)

This one's mine!

(Music comes out from her purse!)

(Excitement on the rise)

(Amazing)

(The best gift for a girl-group member)

(It's a picnic!)

(I want to try it on)

It fits you well, Chae-young!

Somi, let's go!

(Can't stop dancing once you hold it)

(Me too! Me too!)

(My turn now!)

(Explosion of excitement)

Delivery!

(Music changes at the right spot)

I can't find the right rhythm.

(It's coming!)

(Here I go...!)

It doesn't work with my dance!

(Checking their parts)

(Everyone sings the part
they've been practicing)

(Making sure everyone's OK before
going into recording)

(Nods)

(A clean finish)

(Looks for approval)

First of all...

I wish everyone had the confidence
Jin-young carries.

- Jin-kyeong?
- No, Jin-young.

(I was happy for a second...)

I was working with a new,
young singer once.

And I liked the shoes she was wearing.

So I told the young girl,
"Nice shoes!"

I expected her to just say thank you, but
she went,

"They are, right?"

She did that while sitting down.

That's the type of feeling we need,
some confidence.

Is that what I feel like when I sing?

Oh, thank you!

(That's it!)

Somi, Somi?

This part...

Yes.

We need to resolve this, right?

What's wrong with that part?

(She sings falsetto when
she's not so confident)

- But we need to do this live...
- She can do it.

We don't need to lower the key?

We gotta make it happen.

My part isn't high at all.

But there's a part I spin around
while singing.

It makes my voice crack.

A man's voice comes out at that part.

Is there something I can do?

You were an idol-group member!

You have some skill to address that?

I have the skill, yes, but...

But I can't show you with words.

Oh, then show us!

What?

(Whenever you feel like
something bad is about to happen...)

(It's already too late)

Coach Serious! Coach Serious!

(Coach Serious gets up from his seat)

What's the move?

(What, this?)

One more time!

(The seven pupils never leave him alone)

Do you still dance?

No, I don't.

I heard you dance better
than you sing!

We want to see you dance!

Show us! Show us!

I can play music for you!

Is it fun to tease me?

No, it's not like that!

We respect you so much, Coach Serious!

It's because I like you.

I was in a dance group but
I was the vocalist of the group.

Other members danced.

I'd just follow the routine.

OK, fine.

You can show us now.

Play your own song!

No, not that!

That was years ago!

(Let's just do a vocal lesson)

I just really want to learn how to
dance and sing at the same time.

You can do it.

(Ever-so-serious, Coach Serious)

(He had performed as an idol-group
member 15 years ago)

I don't remember the moves so well.

(Going down memory lane...)

(Coach Serious' brightest moments)

(He's still serious with his glasses
and turtleneck)

(Do I remember it still?)

(Powerful and serious)

(Taken aback by his dance moves)

(The camera loses its focus)

How embarrassing!

(What have I done?)

(The seven disciples go wild)

(What a heartthrob!
Never seen this this side of him!)

He danced for a long time!

So, you can sing and dance
at the same time.

Your voice didn't shake at all
even with all that dancing!

Yes, you can sing and dance together.

I thought you'd stop after a bit.

His lips are turning blue.

It's quite addictive, I want to
see it again!

(She's already playing it)

(Please don't...)

(Your fans from 15 years ago
are watching!)

(Get on up!)

A little more!

(Sigh...)

That was it!

(Just keep going!)

OK, OK.

Just once more!

(Like piranhas that never stop)

- You look great dancing!
- You're so good!

Please stop!

Wait a second!

What did you tell Somi earlier?

You need to show confidence!

(Be confident! You can do it!)

You can do it!

(We hold on to your precious teaching)

You can do it too!

OK, fine.

(The great teacher decides
to go on for the third time)

Yes, there.

(We believe in you, Coach Serious!)

(He might break his joints
and the camera)

(Where does he go?)

(Let's follow him!)

(The seven disciples have been touched
by his dedication)

(Sigh...)

(Their passion doesn't subside so easily)

(His soul has left the body)

(Laughter comes out 100%
whenever they think about it)

That was so funny!

Coach Serious is so cool!

Of course we're smitten by him!

(A true teacher...
Wipe away your tears)

I had no idea he'd do it
so seriously!

(Seriously looking back at his life)

Let's stop now.

I think he'll get mad if we
went any further.

I do feel like it's possible for us,
now that we've seen your performance.

We'll make sure to work hard!

We'll dance and sing like you,
in the original key!

(Fight on...)

Do we have a date for recording set?

It'll be soon.

Soon?

(Pressure)

I'll be there to help you
while you record.

Things can get pretty sensitive.

You may even get yelled at.

Even after dividing up the parts,
sometimes they don't feel right.

If the parts seem lacking,
we may change the parts.

- As we record?
- Yes.

It happens all the time.

It's needed to bring out the best quality
performance.

If our singing parts change, don't our
dance positions and moves change too?

Yes, that happens.

(Oh my...)

Just putting in a great amount of effort
isn't good enough to put out an album.

Just working hard is meaningless.

In the end, we have to do it well.

(Ye-won feels very pressured)

(We can do it!)

Coach Serious felt like our dad earlier.

"You can do it, you can!"

That's how he was!

I see that it wasn't just for me.

The coach and I are over!

When did you guys start?

Just me, I started on my own.

She's upset.

Coach, you lost a girl.

(The 17-year-old's imagination
kicks in again)

(What...)

She said it's over.

(She's been watching too much TV)

(I'll take my revenge!)

(Didn't quite catch it)

I'll make sure their weak points
are covered.

(Never mind...)

I believe they'll do well.

I'll do my best.

I have homework for you.

We'll be having a meeting with the stylists
about our theme.

I want everyone to come up with a style
for yourself to match the song.

(Stage costumes, hair, and makeup)

(Perfect the performance
by adding on to the song and the dance)

(How will the members imagine)

(How they'll look on stage?)

(A few days later)

(The fragrance of spring)

(In this cafe)

(Enjoying the warm sun
and relaxation)

(Actress Hong)

(But the homework assignment
is due soon!)

Someone I know is considered a muse
for the girl-groups.

I'm going to pay her a visit tomorrow.

She's good at what she does?

Of course!

- The best!
- Who is it?

Uhm!

(You'll see her in a bit)

(This veteran celebrity awaits her
in a heart of a fan)

(She approaches in her denim)

(So excited!)

(Girl-groups' muse,
Uhm Jung-hwa!)

(The sexiest diva of this generation!)

(Unique hair, makeup, and costume)

(Flashy and shocking stage performances)

(Transcending generations
and genres)

(What will she recommend for Jin-kyeong?)

You look great!

Wow, I haven't seen these in forever!

They don't even fit me anymore.

I haven't seen you in those in ages!

Me too!

(A popular item 18 years ago)

It was really hard to perform with these,
I couldn't hear!

I couldn't hear even if someone
called my name.

(Those were the days...)

Thanks for making time for me,
I know you're busy.

It's great that I get to see you like this.

Our song is done.

Now we have to find the matching
costume, hair, and makeup.

A visual theme that matches the song?

And you're the muse of every girl-group
in this country!

The legend of K-Pop!

(We need your help!)

We're all working very hard for this.

The song came out so well, too.

I want to hear it.

Can you help us?

You remember your disco phase?

Flashy purple lipstick,
glasses...

Did you plan all those things?

Or did your stylist come up with the idea?

I come up with an idea when we determine
the right concept for the song.

That was amazing!

I was always curious about
who your stylist was!

(Found her!)

Check out the song first.

I like it!

(Ideas are popping up in her mind)

The song's fantastic!

I do all kinds of stuff on stage.

Sook and I are like doing
circus up on stage.

Sook does this, and I'm like
this under her.

We go all out for this dance routine.

That's this part.

(Let me show you)

She said she applied my Parisian dance.

(Jin-kyeong's "Squid Dance")

(A difficult domino dance)

You'll need a lot of hot and bright
colors everywhere.

Pink, blue...

Really bright hot pink, something that
catches everyone's attention.

You're amazing.

(Vivid colors meet UNNIES)

(But my hair is...)

Don't I look like a government employee
with this hair?

Like working in the county office.

Wear a wig!

I like wearing wigs on stage.

Me too!

What kind of a wig should I put on?

Wear a wig before bringing something
that changes.

Maybe hide something sparkly
in the wig...

Then I take off the wig on stage?

(That's so my style!)

Just take off my wig on stage?

I really love the song.

I think it gives a great message, too.

I like the message the song gives.

I think many people who might be having
a hard time in their lives

can feel encouraged with this song.

I think the finale of the performance
needs to be really exciting.

In your facial expressions, too.

It'll be fun!

Thank you, Jung-hwa!

I gotta go.

(A dance to show her gratitude)

(Thank you!)

(Why are you doing this to me?)

(Chaos)

(Culture shock)

(UNNIES stage costume meeting)

(UNNIES costume meeting day)

Did you all prepare what we'll wear
on stage?

- Yes, I did.
- Me too.

It feels great if your idea gets picked.

Chae-young, your hair is so cute!

(Isn�??t it?)

You're already trying out
your plan?

Yes, I am.

Everyone brought something?

Nothing much, I just want to
come off natural...

(She's hiding something
underneath her coat)

I'm sure you were busy studying, Somi.

I slept at 3 in the morning.

(She works so hard!)

I'll make sure you continue to study,
no matter how much homework we get!

(Study... Study...)

Minzy looks so pretty today!

(Shy)

Are you dating?

No, OK?

You can date, Minzy.

But you have to tell us first.

Yes, of course I will.

I'll be so disappointed if we find out
through tabloids or something.

Minzy looks guilty for some reason.

- Eyes darting...
- Eyes darting?

(They're always kept under
the protection of their older sisters)

Did you meet anyone for this?

Did you, Sook?

I did meet someone and got some advice.

(Curious)

Someone who raised all
the idol-group members.

I met up with Park So-hyun,
the expert of the idols.

(Come to me if you have any questions
about idol-groups!)

She even knows whose single comes
out at what time!

She knows what kind of a theme
each group will be doing.

She knows it for every girl-group
and boy-group.

And she told me what our theme should be.

She said that you and I should
just be in the back.

(Why did she say it like that?)

(No, you're our pillars!)

Jin-kyeong, why are you wearing
the cloth that goes under a phone?

(A retro-look)

Did you wear that today as a part
of our theme?

(That's our attire?)

Don't worry, she's always got
shocking ideas.

That was the case for season 1, too.

Did you see her torn leggings?

It's our one and only chance!
Let's give it all we got!

That's true!

Does it feel like your blood
is boiling up again?

(Passionate in preparing
their style theme)

But who'll be in charge
of our style?

Jeong Bo-yoon?

She helped us out in season 1.

We'll invite her in and have her
introduce herself.

Please come in!

(In high expectations)

(All rise)

It's you!

You know her?

I go to sauna with her!

(They share a bathtub together?)

What are you doing here?

I was asked to be charge
of UNNIES' fashion style.

(Choi Hee-sun, Sook's sauna buddy)

(The suspenders fashion for
KARA's "Mister")

(Girl's Day's "Something",
based on Park Ji-yoon's "Adult Ceremony")

(A.O.A's "Like a Cat," "Heart Attack,"
"Good Luck")

(She's also responsible for
Twice's fashion style)

(The top stylist, Choi Hee-sun!)

(She won the stylist award
in 2016)

(And she's now the stylist for UNNIES!)

What do you consider the most important
when you come up with a design?

For a girl-group, looking slim
and pretty is the most important.

That'd be helpful, I'm sure.

So how the clothes fit is very important.

(In agreement)

How about people that make their shirts
open up a little no matter what they wear?

Sorry?

You know, the ones that make any shirt
open up when they put them on...

They always have to use safety pins.

That's actually a good thing, and you want
to accentuate it.

(I'll protect you)

(She'll bring it out even more!)

Jin-kyeong's about 6 feet tall,
can we make her look shorter?

(Can clothes make a person
look shorter?)

(Is it possible?)

I'll work on it.

What kind of people meet
to discuss fashion themes?

Usually the CEOs of
their management companies.

The planning committee of the company,
marketing department...

Photographers, and music video directors.

Dance coaches are always a part of
the discussion too.

How about the members themselves?
Do we get to be in the discussion?

That depends on the management company.

What was it like for you, Minzy?

We were a group with a very strong
character, so they asked us a lot about

what we wanted to wear.

How about Somi?

They asked us for our opinions too.

Then we should be able to voice
our opinions too!

I'm 43 this year, I want to
say what I like!

(We'll reflect your opinion, Sook...)

(Before UNNIES style meeting)

(Producer Kim Hyeong-seok joins!)

It's been a while!

(Dance coaches Kyu-sang
and Hwa-young join in)

(They had known each other
for a long time)

So all of you know each other already?

(All the experts of the field
already know each other)

We've already prepared everything.

Everyone looks so flashy today.

You stand out a little more than others.

(A cute girl-group wannabe
at 41 years of age)

I can't take my eyes off of her!

(Shocking)

This is supposed to be
Jeong-yeon's hair from Twice?

That's just wrong.

She looks like that cartoon character!

And the girl from "Welcome to Dongmakgol"!

(She looks like many different characters)

Let me go on first.

(Looking forward to it)

I met up with Uhm Jeong-hwa
to discuss our style.

She said a woman who was
shy and timid

gets positive energy from UNNIES
should be our theme.

And she's able to show herself
to the world proudly.

So shiny and sparkly is the point.

I tried it on today.

(Surprise!)

(Today, Hong Jin-kyeong...)

(Put on a layer of confidence)

(Like a colorful fish!)

So I prepared a shiny and
sparkly attire.

Now with these pants to
match the song!

(Confused, terrified, shocked)

(The fashion queen, worth taking a look at)

(A visual shock)

(Even the professionals cannot
look at her)

(I want to get crazy!)

That's pretty amazing.

Put something on! Hurry!

(Picking up her pants)

You have a great body!

(Looks like she's shooting "Avatar")

Did you make it yourself?

Yes, I made the whole attire.

(Respect!)

It's blinding me!

I was thinking maybe we can wear
different colored stockings.

So we can come off colorful and flashy.

Red for Sook!

We'll first hide our stockings.

And we take them off at a certain point
for a visual effect.

Bringing out our hidden selves!

I think you should hide.

There's a difficult move we have to do
in the routine.

Oh, that's no problem.

We can do a split in these.

We have to put our arms to our bodies
for our dance.

This might make scratch marks
on our arms.

(Scratch marks?)

Try it and see if the shirt
scratches your arms.

(A shiny squid comes on stage)

I think the body line can look good in it.

Arms to your body.

It feels great, scratching where it itches.

It feels very refreshing!

- Not bad!
- Her body line is accentuated.

(Full of confidence)

(I like it!)

It's got a vibe to it.

Jin-kyeong, you're the best!

Can you do the "Right" part?

This part.

Are you making fun of me?

No, I want to take an objective look.

Of course it'll go well with it!

(So cute!)

(That's totally my style)

(No need for any lighting on stage)

(Handmade sparkly bodysuit with
stockings in vivid colors)

(What did the coaches think?)

It's very unique and it fits her well.

But that wouldn't work for
all the members.

Imagine Chae-young in that suit!

(Even the Barbie doll can't pull it off)

The song does talk about
being confident in expressing oneself.

I think it's perfectly fitting
in that sense.

How about you, Sook?

I always carry around a sketchbook,
ever since season 1.

(She had shocked everyone before)

(Sook's scrapbook full of ideas)

I'm sure you ripped out about 20 pages
at a hair salon.

I slimmed it down to 35
from my original plan.

(A summary of 35 fashion magazines)

(She's amazing)

(A hand-written presentation)

The hairstyle that I want the most
is to have all the hair pulled back.

Tie back our hair to look clean.

Can you show us how you'd look?

That makes me look ugly though.

(Like this)

(Let's keep our bangs)

How about this? It's the year
of the rooster.

(Let's fight!)

We can look like chicken fighters.

And we can even out our heights
with this hair style.

(Good for the shorter members)

(This will make us tall!)

(If you don't like that...)

That's so pretty!

Jin-kyeong brought a short hair wig before.

And I thought it looked good.

So how about short hair for all,
but in different colors?

(Not bad!)

That was my idea.

Next, our clothes for the music video.

(She prepared a lot!)

I prepared something that can take care
of our hair style and our clothes together.

What will it be?

Every music video looks
the same these days.

We have to different from the rest.

So I thought about painting our bodies.

(Oh no...)

(No need for human clothing)

They won't be able to tell us apart!

(Amazed at Sook's artistic sense)

They won't be able to tell who's who.

Coaches, you guys don't look so good.

I'm not sure about that idea...

(The philosophy behind the body painting)

It's to show that the out appearance
means nothing.

It's about the beauty inside.

And we can end the music video
as we wash our faces off.

Cleansing ourselves and
being confident, right?

There have been some cases of using
body painting.

But it was usually done for men.

It did move many people's hearts,
and it was creative and artistic.

I thought it was a great idea
for a music video.

And she prepared so much, fitting
to be in a production company.

I want to introduce you to
some people!

Oh, I'm quite busy as I am...

(Ye-won's turn for presentation)

I first drew the members.

Wow, they look good!

(Sisters Slam Dunk poster)

(She thought about each member)

(And looked in detail over and over)

Tada!

I tried matching everyone's personality
to a color.

I think blue matches well with Sook,
and she's wearing it now.

I love blue!

It feels very clear.

I think it fits you well.

And I thought of purple for Jin-kyeong.

I'm wearing purple right now, too!

You're wearing every color!

I picked yellow for myself.

Red for Chae-young.

Pink for Somi,

and green for Minzy.

For Jin-young, I thought orange
fits her well.

(That sounds right!)

(She's refreshing like orange!)

So these are the colors I came up with
for each member.

(The rest feel pressured to go on)

I thought about going retro
for our costumes.

(Vintage power shoulder blouse)

It's what you like, isn't it?

We're used to putting our shoulders in
to hide something.

That's the same for all of us, right?
No?

(Her friends keep getting mentioned)

We should be more confident!

And having strong shoulders make me feel
more confident and powerful.

You know this part in our dance?

I realize that we're using
many hand gestures.

Maybe we can have ruffles on our arms
to accentuate our hands.

(Like this!)

Maybe on our wrists.

(Ye-won's choice: Retro fashion
that can accentuate the dance moves)

Her idea is the closest to what I thought
of as I was writing the song.

One of the things that we consider the most
important in stage costume is

to turn the weak points of our body
to our strong points.

I think it's great that you thought of
a way to do just that.

(Next is...)

Hello!

You look like a private investigator.

For our album jacket design...

I thought of a "swim" look.

(I like it!)

I wanted to come off confident.

And they can usually lengthen our legs
with Photoshop.

I think we can try this for a photo shoot.

This is a little like
Sook's idea.

(They have similar ideas)

(A vivid color suit, similar to
Sook's idea)

It's a modern look for a girl-group.

You sound like a salesperson.

(Call us now!)

(Nearly sold out!)

(The customers are listening)

(Order now, and we'll throw in
"the Love Batteries"!)

This design will fit Somi's age.

That's the feel I was going for.

We're all here with the same purpose.

We have members with various ages
to fulfill our dreams.

So...

She's wearing it!

(Jin-young wore her dream)

(A school uniform look)

(With a rabbit doll to bring out
her cuteness)

This can come off very cute.

(Jacket off)

This way, it feels more girly.

(Reminiscent of her high school days)

When will we ever wear school
uniforms again?

The same goes for me too.

Other than Somi, we won't ever
get to wear a school uniform.

I thought this will match our topic
of achieving our dreams.

Can you do the squid dance?

It'll look great in this attire!

But that's wrong. Did you practice?

(This is not what I was going for...)

(The trainees can never relax)

I'll head back in now.

(Jin-young's choice: Combining various
themes, and school uniforms)

I went for a kitsch look.

It reminds us of street fashion.

It mixes pop art and vintage patterns.

Our song is very bright and fun.

I thought using many different colors
like this will match the song well.

I think this will help us look younger
and cuter.

So I tried putting it on as a sample.

(They are just so full of passion)

We prepare so well!

Do it at once!

How about taking off the jacket
as you do a wave?

(Will I be ale to...?)

(First the wave...)

(Then jacket off)

(Girly)

that's so cute!

(A true Barbie doll)

(That's not bad!)

With this hairstyle, too.

(What was that laugh?)

(Chae-young's laugh when she's feeling shy)

We'll put hair to either side.

But with a touch of punk style.

I think our makeup can be
a little thick, too.

I tried it that way for myself today.

(She's a doll!)

Even my nails to finish off!

(Applause)

Chae-young's smiling, but you can tell
she's so nervous.

Her hand was shaking like this!

I never get nervous but whenever
I stand in front of you, I do.

(How cute!)

(Chae-young's choice: Cute kitsch look with
bright pastel colors)

Everyone prepared so much for this.

Your makeup, hair, and your clothes
all match so perfectly.

There's much confidence that's felt
in the song.

I did have the kitsch look in mind.

(Same as me!)

(Chae-young's excited at her compliment)

She looks so pretty!

She feels like she's already in the waiting
room at a live music show.

Somi, you prepared a PPT
presentation too?

No one brought a sketchbook?

(Only person in agreement)

(Only the old school members
prepared in an "analog" way)

I glued stuff on.

(The theme for UNNIES' costume style)

How about a healthy look?

It's summer soon, so we can go with denim.

I thought it'd look good
if we went with a sporty look.

I thought it'll look cute
for this part.

It may be too distracting if our
costume is too sparkly.

(Just like her with all the sparkles!)

(Unintended target, Hong Jin-kyeong)

(Is it weird?)

(Somi's choice: Taking after the best of
girl-groups, with sporty denim look)

You must be busy with school but
you did great!

You're keeping us on our toes since
you prepared so much.

(Leader Gong's presentation)

I think this will be like the final version
of everything that was discussed.

As I heard about the assignment
to choose our theme,

I thought about going back to
the very beginning.

Producer Kim Hyeong-seok and Ye-won
both mentioned "La La Land" as a motive.

So I took in a lot of inspiration
from the movie.

I thought the confident walks shown
in the movie fit UNNIES well.

It feels very bright.

It's pretty much everything that we
just talked about.

"La La Land" has a 60s and 70s vibe.

I thought about the same feel for us.

(A comprehensive version
of all of their ideas)

(Leader Gong's big picture!)

(Minzy's choice: All the ideas put
together, "La La Land" theme)

I think we have our theme.

I think Minzy's idea will fit
the song very well.

It'll also bring life to the dance routine.

(Putting their ideas together)

Black was the main color
in the last season.

I think it should be more colorful
this time.

I like all of their ideas.

I had many ideas.

I want to come off as bright
as the song.

(From now, we'll show you!)

(UNNIES)

(An Egyptian rapper,
MC Cairo)

(Learn how to rap)

(Trot swag, MC Hong You)

(Who will take on the rap part?)

(Necessity for every girl-group,
watching their weight)

(What was that?)

(Goodbye, dieting)

(One meal a day)

(It's a food-fighter girl-group!)

(And early morning in the house...)

She must've practiced so much!

(Except for this part)

Chae-young and me!

You don't think I'm better than her?
