Three.

If I had known this would happen,

I wouldn't have come here
with Chung Hsiao-kang.

Did they make up?

Hey, Man-ching...

Man-ching!

Man-ching!

Man-ching!

Man-ching!

Hsiao-kang,

you never know how to look back.

Is this the end of us?

Tien-pien.

Tien-pien.

Damn it. Where did she go?

Doesn't Happy always come
to collect money?

I've already paid him.

Let go of me!

Sir, you...

A purple seashell.

Have you found one yet?

Sir.

I'm sorry.

I haven't had time to look for it.

Little girl,

you have to find a purple seashell for me.

My wife has been waiting for so long.

In the past,

I promised her so many things.

But I never fulfilled them.

This time,

I can't let her down again.

It's my last promise.

A purple seashell.

Please.

Please.

Don't worry, sir.

I'll find one for you.

Once I find it, tell me where she lives.

I'll deliver it for you.

Deliver it?

She...

She...

Sir!

Mr. Yang's wife passed away ten years ago.

Dr. Chang, please come at once.
Something is wrong with Mr. Yang.

He won't let her down again.

Mr. Chung couldn't find anyone,
so he took her home.

Hsu Tse-ya, what are you worried about?

YI TIEN-PIEN

Hello?

-Tien-pien?
-Is this Hsu Tse-ya?

Talk louder. I can't hear you.

I hear waves. Where are you?

I'm at the beach.

What's up? I'm kind of busy.

It's nothing.

Can you talk louder? I can't hear you.

I...

I...

-I want to see you.
-Sure.

I'll wait for you here. Come meet me.

-Okay.
-Bye.

They only had this kind.

This is great. Thanks.

We've been looking for so long,

but there aren't any purple seashells.

Are you sure it really exists?

I...

I have to find a purple seashell for him.

It has to do with a promise he made.

He takes his promises seriously.

Even though his wife
passed away so long ago,

he still wants to find
a purple seashell for her.

You probably don't see people like that

in this world anymore,

unlike some people
who they don't keep their promises.

They simply make promises

and then disappear,

never to show up again.

Maybe...

he tried really hard
to fulfill his promise.

He tried very hard,

but he didn't have a chance.

So even now,

he still wants to fulfill that promise.

If he wanted to, he would have done it.

He's just making excuses.

Sometimes, we let opportunities pass

even though we didn't want to.

Just like that old man.

He has tried for so many years,

but he still can't find a purple seashell.

What's important now
is to help him fulfill his promise.

I think so too.

But I've been searching all day.

I can't find any purple ones.

I have an idea.

-What?
-Come on.

Come on.

Trust me.

Sir.

It's you.

This is...

This is great.

Little girl,

I can go and see my wife now.

How should I thank you?

There's no need to thank me, sir.

I'm already happy from seeing you happy.

Who's this?

I forgot to introduce you.

This is Hsu Tse-ya.

He's a management trainee at SET.

Hello, sir.

Management trainee?

Little girl, do me one more favor.

Find a flower for me.

It must go well with this purple seashell.

Go.

I'll keep him company then.

Go now.

Please sit, Mr. Hsu.

Mr. Hsu.

You don't seem surprised
that I know who you are.

I've never tried to hide anything.

I just haven't had the chance
to explain to Tien-pien yet.

I can tell.

You love her, don't you?

She's a good girl.

I'm glad that there is someone
who loves her so much.

I always feel like

people will pick on her someday.

Sir.

You've misunderstood. We--

I'm never wrong.

You just don't know it yet.

But I have it all

figured out already.

Money, status...

Nothing is better than having
a loved one by your side.

Don't regret it only when you lose her.

Just tell her how you feel.

I have experience.

So I understand.

Hey.

Do you think he'll find out
that the purple seashell is fake?

Don't worry.

Didn't you prepare
some bellflowers for him?

He looked happy, right?

The florist told me
that in the language of flowers,

bellflowers mean everlasting love.

It goes well with his determination
to find a purple seashell.

Everlasting love?

I see.

Is that so?

Hey, thank you so much for today.

If it weren't for you,

I would still be looking
for a purple seashell.

I'm happy to be helpful.

Here.

I'll walk you home.

It's fine.

Hsu Tse-ya, do you know
about the music review event?

I heard that
the general manager approved it.

I don't know how I offended him.

Why is he doing this to me?

That might not be what he's doing.

Have you seen him before?

I...

I think he must have a nose
with lots of blackheads on it,

is as fat as a meatball
and has legs like sticks.

Just like a meatball with two sticks.

He must be one of those old men
who pick on everything.

You don't seem to like people
of higher management.

Of course. Who likes to look upwards
to talk to someone?

But maybe one day,
you'll fall for someone like that.

No, I won't. Who will like an old fat man?

If I fall for an old fat man one day,

I must have gone crazy.

Will you go to SET tomorrow?

Yes.

See you tomorrow then.

Bye.

Money, status...

Nothing is better than having
a loved one by your side.

Don't regret it only when you lose her.

Tien-pien.

Then...

Tomorrow at lunchtime,

meet me at the rooftop.

I'll treat you to sandwiches.

Okay.

-Bye.
-Okay.

Tien-pien.

Is it inconvenient for you to stay
with Chung Hsiao-kang?

Would you like me to find another place?

It's fine. Chung Hsiao-kang is nice.

He looks mean,
but he's actually pretty considerate.

Is that so?

You just met him today.

But when you talk about him,

it seems like you know him well.

Do you really know him?

I don't know you that well either.

Do you think you know me well?

Yes.

We don't know each other that well.

You're right.

Goodbye.

I haven't seen her the whole day.

She's back.

Where did you go?

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Actually...

I got kidnapped.

They wanted me to find a purple seashell.

What kind of excuse is that?

Do you think I'm stupid?

Looks like you don't care enough
about music.

I told you that you wouldn't believe me!
I'm telling the truth!

How dare you say I don't care about music?

I won't let someone
who doesn't respect music

-to work on my project.
-You say I don't respect music. Do you?

Music is all about connecting with people.

You're always talking about
Roam in the Clouds,

but you don't even understand
basic communication.

You want to find a new voice?

Without communication,
your music has no life.

Would you like some noodles?

I'm really good at cooking noodles.

I'll show you.

Eat it while it's still hot.

Right, let's do a prayer.

Dear Father, thank you
for blessing us with this meal.

If you want to stay here,

you better know your place.

You asked for this.

He treats me like
I'm a piece of furniture.

Should I stay or not?

Believe in yourself
and your dreams will come true.

The florist told me
that in the language of flowers,

bellflowers mean everlasting love.

I shouldn't have told him that.

He must have felt so awkward.

What should I do when I see him tomorrow?

I wish I could take it back.

I don't know you that well either.

Do you think you know me well?

Yes.

We don't know each other that well.

You're right.

He said that for my own good.

Why am I so emotional?

Hsu Tse-ya,

are you going to start
ignoring me tomorrow?

The florist told me
that in the language of flowers,

bellflowers mean everlasting love.

I don't know you that well either.

Do you think you know me well?

She's right.

We haven't known each other for that long.

I can tell.

You love her, don't you?

Could he be right?

Why are you exhaling through your nose?

Didn't I tell you?

Inhale with your nose
and exhale with your mouth while running.

That's too fast.

If you exhale all at once,
you'll run out of breath.

Take it slow. That's right.

Follow your footsteps. Yes.

Yes, slowly. One step at a time.

That's good. You're smart.

Who said you could stop?

Keep running.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Is there something on my face?

No.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Don't move.

Okay. Try turning your ankle.

Does it hurt?

It doesn't hurt anymore.

As a singer, your voice is important,

but your physical expression
is also very important.

So you have to take care of yourself.

Do you hear me?

Okay, let's keep going.

I think I'm starting to see

what kind of person Chung Hsiao-kang is.

Even though he always looks mean,

he takes good care of me.

Even though he's never asked me to,

I know that I can trust him.

I want to trust him.

I finally found you.

This is great! It's wonderful!

Who knew that
although you aren't eye-catching,

you're a different person when you sing?

You really are a miracle!

Do you think you can buy my daughter
with 100,000 dollars to do as you wish?

From now on,

you can only follow my footsteps.

It's because I'm the only one

who can get you
on the international stage.

I know it's kind of late

to say this now,

but...

Thank you

for this morning.

There's no need to thank me.

I'm not doing this for you.

-It's for--
-Roam in the Clouds.

I know. I understand.

So it's a piece of thread.

I thought it was a bug.

Let's go.

What are you looking at?

What was that supposed to be?

Why can't you take this seriously?

Can't you understand it?

Didn't I teach you?

It's even worse than
when Man-ching first got here.

Right. Even though she has a good voice,

the music review event is tomorrow.

How is she going to make it?

It's the director's mistake then.

Roam in the Clouds is in big trouble.

Do you know why he wants Tien-pien
to sing "Roam in the Clouds"?

He knows that Man-ching's voice
doesn't have that energy.

It's not the right voice.

But apart from the director,

nobody knows what kind of energy he wants.

The fans don't know either.

Shen Man-ching is good enough for them.

You don't understand.

The director is always trying to do more.

Tang, have you forgotten?

If she doesn't pass
the music review event,

all of us might be...

-What?
-Including the director.

No matter what, I trust the director.

Sure. Let's bet on it
with an extra large coffee.

-Bet on it?
-I bet she won't pass.

I trust the director.

I bet that she'll pass.

Okay. What about you guys?

If you think she'll pass,
stand on Tang's side.

-If not, stand on my side.
-Come on.

-Over here.
-Why can't you do it right?

Didn't I teach you?

Can we make the bet smaller?

A small coffee.

-No.
-No.

What?

That's enough for now.

We'll practice something else
in the afternoon.

Sir, we're going to lunch.

Do you want anything?

It's fine. Let's go together.

-Okay.
-Come on.

I can't go.

I've made plans with a colleague
from another department.

You just got here today.

You already know someone
from another department?

Which department is it?

I...

He's new too.

Okay.

In that case, be back here by 1:00 p.m.

-Also, don't eat food that's--
-Spicy, hot, sour, sweet, or salty.

I know.

I'll be back by 1:00 p.m., okay?

Okay. Get back soon.

Don't forget. No cold food either.

Okay.

This place is huge.

Where am I?

Yi Tien-pien.

I'm the Program Director, Hsu Shan-ni.

We met in the studio
during the last singing audition.

Hello, Ms. Hsu.

Mr. Chung has probably told you
about the music review event next week.

Yes.

He said a lot of people
will come to listen to me.

He'll make sure it goes well.

Do you know that Chung Hsiao-kang

is gambling his reputation on this event?

No.

-Ms. Shen.
-Ms. Shen, wait.

-Ms. Shen.
-Ms. Shen.

Ms. Shen, we heard Mr. Chung
has replaced you as the lead singer.

What do you think about the new singer
for Roam in the Clouds?

Do you think she has a chance
to become the new queen of pop?

Are you worried that
she'll be better than you?

I've always thought that the best way
to repay SET and Mr. Chung

is to support new talents.

I think it's perfectly fine
to give this newcomer a chance.

So please support this new voice from SET.

Thank you.

-You accepted it openly.
-Ms. Shen...

Doesn't that mean
that your career is over?

What are you going to do now?

-Excuse me.
-In the future...

Chung Hsiao-kang vouched for you
to be the lead singer.

Roam in the Clouds
will determine the future of SET.

Do you understand?

So at the event, the evaluators

won't only be people involved with
Roam in the Clouds,

but also directors
for TV shows and movies,

music producers, program producers,

and even board members of SET.

And the media will be there, of course.

I...

I don't think you understand

that if you don't pass
the music review event,

you'll be living your old life
in your old home,

but Chung Hsiao-kang will be ruined.

He'll fall from heaven to hell.

So, if you're not sure
about this music review event,

I advise you to think twice about it.

I'll do my best to prepare
and bring out my best performance.

I won't let Mr. Chung down.

Apart from doing your best,
show some confidence.

Otherwise, don't go on stage at all.

A music review event...

Just tell her how you feel.

Hsu Tse-ya,

what are you waiting for?

Is it her?

Is it love?

Or just your unrealistic expectations?

-Hello?
-Have you left?

No.

I haven't been there before.

I asked so many people for directions.

I got lost on the way.

-Do you need me to--
-No. Don't leave.

I'll be there soon. I'm on my way.

I want to apologize for yesterday.

I should be the one to apologize.

I shouldn't have interfered.

Then we're even.

Yes.

I brought lunch. Want some?

Yes.

-Tien-pien.
-Yes?

I...

-I like you.
-What?

I...

Hello?

I'm not drinking a cold drink.

I'm talking to a friend on the rooftop.

I met him before I joined SET.

He's a management trainee.

My lunch?

I had a lot of good food.

Okay, I know.

I'll be back in time.

Do you know I really wanted to eat
the lunch you brought me?

But...

It's all Chung Hsiao-kang's fault.

Why?

I can only eat the things
on the list he gave me.

It's supposed to protect my voice.

I can't eat too much before I sing too.

Or I'll lose my voice.

He's taking good care of you then.

He is taking good care of me.

Even though he's fierce,

I think that deep down inside,

he must be a really thoughtful person.

I actually admire him a lot.

But every time I see him,

I can't say it.

By the way,

did you just say you like me?

Tell me.

What do you like about me?

I like you...

I like you as a good friend.

I see.

Actually...

I like you as a good friend too.

If it weren't for you,

I wouldn't be here today.

Really?

Yes.

So how is your first day at SET?

That Chung Hsiao-kang had me do
so many things early in the morning.

I was so tired before I even got here.

You're just starting out. That's normal.

You'll get used to it.

I'm worried that I won't be here
once I've gotten used to it.

What's the matter?

The music review event.

I just realized
how serious of a matter it is.

Whenever I think about it,
I can feel my stomach knotting up.

I almost feel sick.

Didn't you tell me

that you can't do anything else
besides singing?

Rather than worrying
about your performance,

you should try to sharpen

your only skill.

What?

Think about it.

Hsiao-kang is training you

because he wants you to do better.

You should let go of all your worries

and believe in everything
he has done for you.

Just do your best.

Even if you fail in the end,

you'll have no regrets
because you didn't give up.

I'm sure you'll gain much more
than you can imagine now.

I understand.

From now on, I shouldn't think
about things that worry me.

My top priority is to sing well.

Hello?

I'll be there right away.

Hsu Tse-ya!

Someone is being held hostage.

Who is it?

Who's in the studio?

What's going on?

How did this happen?

Cheng-tung, what's going on?

I've notified security.

But Ms. Hsu is in the studio.

What?

Didn't I tell you not to do anything
before I get there?

How could you let her go in on her own?

I'm sorry, Mr. Hsu.

Ms. Hsu said that she can't
just stand there and do nothing.

-So...
-Got it. Wait for me.

-What happened?
-Someone's being held hostage.

Get me Shen Man-ching!

I'm telling you.

I just saw some reporters
interviewing her 20 minutes ago.

Bring her to me!

Bring her to me now!

You should at least give me
a reason to do so.

Fine. I'll tell you.

I'm going to save Shen Man-ching
from Chung Hsiao-kang.

What?

I've been to every one of her concerts.

I always give her 999 roses.

If it weren't for Chung Hsiao-kang,
Shen Man-ching would never ignore me!

Why would you take her hostage?

She's just an assistant.

Let's make a deal.

-The general manager is here.
-He is here.

Clear the area.

-Cheng-tung, call the police.
-Yes, Mr. Hsu.

-Everyone...
-Wait.

-Ms. Hsu.
-Ms. Hsu.

-Turn the monitor on.
-Yes, Mr. Hsu.

-This is bad.
-Quiet!

-How did this happen?
-What should we do?

Are the police here?

-Hurry up.
-What should we do?

-Tell the police to hurry up.
-This is ridiculous.

Mr. Hsu, the guy has a bomb on him.
It's dangerous.

That's exactly why I have to go in.

Without my orders,

don't do anything.

-Mr. Hsu.
-Mr. Hsu!

-What should we do? He went in.
-What's going to happen?

Get me Shen Man-ching. Right now!

Can't you see this? I can blow up

the whole TV station with this bomb.

Get me Shen Man-ching. I have to save her!

What are you going to do
with Shen Man-ching?

Do you think you can save her?

Who are you?

I'm the general manager of SET.

You can just come at me.

I want the media here.

I want to be in the news.

I want everyone to know
how much I love Shen Man-ching.

Sure, no problem.

I'll get the media here.

Have a reporter with a camera come in.

-Are you a reporter?
-Yes.

Who do you work for?

Entertainment Weekly.

Entertainment Weekly?

I want to be in the headlines.

I'm telling you.

Shen Man-ching is a poor soul.

Chung Hsiao-kang
is just playing around with her.

As for me,

I'm the hero who will save her.

Once Mr. Hsu gives the order,
we'll go in and capture the guy.

YANG YA-CHING

All right. You...

How dare you lie to me?

How dare you lie to me?

Mr. Hsu!

Get out of here!

-You should go.
-No.

Leave me.

-No. I can't go.
-You should go now!

Go! Time's running out.

-I'm telling you to go!
-I will not give up on you

even if it's the last second.

Get him out of here.

Mr. Hsu, Ms. Hsu, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Are you okay?

Shan-ni!

Cheng-tung, pull up the car.

Tell PR to suppress all news about this.

Yes, Mr. Hsu.

This teacher emphasizes
the sensitivity of movements.

-You must pay attention to every movement.
-Be careful!

Hey. Out of the way!

-What's going on?
-Mr. Chung, you don't know?

A crazy fan demanded to see Man-ching.

He had a bomb on him.

He was going to kill himself
and Man-ching.

I can't believe you didn't see it.

Also, did you know that...

You've probably heard
about your crazy fan, right?

So what? You don't care anyway.

Who else would I care about if not you?

You have so many fans.

We can't be sure
if there aren't others like him.

Be careful, okay?

Okay.

I heard he also came for you.

So you...

But you probably don't care anyway.

Man-ching.

-Should I explain to her--
-Who asked you to do that?

Come.

Here.

Here.

The doctor said you'll be okay.

Thank goodness.

Why did you do that?

Why didn't you wait for me?

You helped that host,
but you got taken hostage.

You even risked your life to fight him.

Do you know how dangerous that is?

What if something happened to you?

What should we do?

What should I do?

In the company, I'm your boss.

But in private,

I'm your brother.

No matter what happens,
I'll be there for you.

You don't have to face these things alone.

Understand?

I was just trying to do my job.

A good manager
shouldn't rely on their bosses

to deal with stuff.

I agree with that.

But you don't have to be strong
all the time.

Don't forget.

You're not alone.

You'll always have someone
to help you at all times.

When you feel vulnerable,

just give yourself a break.

It's okay to do that.

It's your right.

What's wrong?

Does it hurt?

No.

It's too cold.

I'll get you another towel.

Why?

What?

Why are you the one telling me that
I don't have to be strong all the time?

Why didn't you leave me there?

Because you're my sister.

That's what you think.

I've never admitted
that you're my brother.

You've never lost someone you love before.

I have.

I don't want to go through it again.

Shan-ni.

Mom.

I heard that you got hurt. Is it serious?

I'm okay.

Which hospital are you in?
I'll go visit you.

I just got home from the hospital.

I'm fine.

Are you at home alone?

Yes.

I'll go home now.

It's fine, Mom.

I'm all right.

You don't have to leave work for me.

Are you sure?

Yes, don't worry.

Okay, I know.

Bye.

About the funds...

The funds from Mr. Fang of Taishan Bank...

The signing is tomorrow,

but before everything is written
in black and white,

you should still watch out.

-They might suddenly--
-I know.

Then why?

If that's the case,

you should at least express your doubts.

Maybe it would...

I trust my family.

I trust Aunt Li-hung.

Get some rest.

Let me know if you need anything.

I'll be in my room.

Okay.

It's the toy I begged Mom to buy me
when I was a kid.

She wouldn't buy it.

She didn't want me to play all the time.

I can't believe Hsu Tse-ya remembered.

Tien-pien.

I like you.

I like you as a good friend.

I'm sorry.

Let's start over.

Let me get this straight.

Once you get on that stage,
you won't get another chance.

I...

I know.

Never mind.

This is just torture for everyone.

Let's take a ten-minute break.

Does she know who I am?

Will she be mad at me
for not telling her sooner?

Is it my phone?

Ten minutes is up.

Let's continue.

The number you've dialed is unavailable.

Please try again later.

The number you've dialed is unavailable.

Please try again later.

Perhaps this is why
Bottle Cap didn't wait for me.

Even though I try so hard,

I never seize my opportunities.

When I finally take action,

it's too late.

What's wrong with me?

Why am I waiting for him
to call and explain things?

Who am I to him?

What are you thinking about right now?

What's distracting you?

Nothing...

-It's nothing.
-Nothing?

This song is about losing a lover.

Why are you singing like an old widow?

An old widow?
I have nothing to do with him.

You have nothing to do with who?

Tell me. Have you ever been in love?

I bet you haven't.

You can talk to me about dolphins,
culture, humanity, and noodles,

but you can't even talk to me about love.

That's right.
I have never been in love before.

-Where are you taking me?
-On a date.

Are these calla lilies?

I've never seen them before.

I've only seen them in books.

I never thought I'd be able
to see them in real life.

They're so beautiful.

Did you know that the wind
is so strong at Dolphin Bay

that only cacti can survive?

Other plants don't do well there.

Is this the feeling of being in love
that you were talking about?

What do you feel right now?

I feel like...

Like I'm on an adventure.

Love is an adventure.

You don't know

how fast your heart can beat.

It feels as if your blood is boiling.

Even if the sky falls down,

you want to go for that feeling.

That's what love is.

The person buried here

was my first love.
