["Idols on Air"]

[Episode 3]

As expected,
the youngest member of SHAX delivered.

Self-introductions on "Idols on Air".

Let us continue.

Next on stage is Yu-ji of 3YE.

[Applaud]

[Applaud]

Hello, I'm Yu-ji, the leader of 3YE.

I hope you wish me luck.

Ma-ha, this really isn't necessary.

It's all right.

I'm here on behalf of
Hyun-ji and Ri-a too, remember?

[Thank you.]

[That was great]

And this is our last guest.

She's a rookie who came to visit
"Idols on Air" for the first time.

I never imagined that she had a sister.

Here's La Ri-ma's sister, Lee Ma-ha.

Please welcome her!

I'm La Ri-ma's sister, La Ri-maha.

I'll do my best

to copy my sister to a T.

Music, please.

Will you give me a hand?

She reached out for help!

Will he take her hand?

What will it be? Will he take her hand?

Do you think he'll take her hand?

Don't. Don't!

He took her hand.

What's up with him today?

["Idols on Air"]

It was a performance
that will go down in this show's history.

Did you two practice this beforehand?

["Idols on Air"]

No.

The song is just that good, you see.

Because the song was good?

Thank you.

Sure.

I'm Lee Ma-ha of
the always cheerful Tea Party.

Thank you.

That's all for this week's "Idols on Air".

See you next week. Goodbye!

["Idols on Air"]

And cut!

[Loud reactions!]

Good job, everyone.

-Good job.
-Thank you. Good job.

-Good job.
-You too.

Thank you for today.

-Good job today.
-You too.

Thank you for today.

Ryok,

it's been a while.

Ryok?

Let's grab a drink some other time.

-Ma-ha, let's go.
-Sure.

-Good job, everyone.
-Thank you.

Why isn't he picking up?

[Green Room: Kwon Ryok]

Ryok, the van's right outside.

Give me five minutes, okay?

What? Hey, Dae-gwon!

-You did well today.
-Well, my head's still spinning.

In my eyes, you were the best.
It was amazing.

Let's go then.

[SHAX]

Director!

Could you edit out
the dancing scene in today's opening?

Why? It looked good.

It was out of character for Ryok
and wasn't scripted.

Sure.

-Please make it happen. Thank you.
-Okay.

Ryok.

You accused me of
only knowing how to be a copycat.

I only do the best I can
in the situation I've been handed.

I'm sorry it seemed worthless to you.

-What in the name?
-What was that?

What do you mean?

Since when were you there?

The moment she came looking for you.

What was it?

Get back inside.

Take a look.

[SHAX]

It's our padded jacket, isn't it?

[SHAX]

Will you give me a hand?

Humiliated completely by a copycat.

Are you sure you can go alone?

Yes, I could find it even blindfolded.

You did well today.

You too.

-Get back safely then.
-Drive safely, sir.

-Hey, Yu-jin.
-Why the long face?

Aren't you still grounded?

How did you get out?

It's our last break
before the release of our new album.

I see.

A new album? Really?

Our song came out today.

Seriously? Congrats!

Things will only get more hectic then.

More so since our last album
wasn't a success.

Things are tense at the agency.

Without a hit song, most idol groups

disband after three years.

Is that you bragging?

I didn't mean it like that.

There's no need to cower.

How are things for you?

Nothing yet.

I hear we'll get good news soon,
so we're waiting.

I'm sure good songs will be offered.

Of course. I'd expect no less.

How did filming go today?

I was on eggshells, was nervous,

scared,

flustered,

and surprised.

But it was still exciting and thrilling.

Exciting and thrilling?

Yu-jin,

I danced with a star today.

A star?

-You mean La Ri-ma?
-No.

No, one that shines brighter
and can't be reached.

A star that can't be reached?

Whatever. You'll see when the show airs.

I wasted too much of your time, didn't I?

-No way.
-Don't push yourself too hard.

But pave the way
that leads to TV music shows.

I'll be on it soon.

Sure. I'll be waiting.

-No, I'm good.
-A gentle touch will do.

-I'm good.
-I'm home!

Ma-ha!

How did the show go? Did you do well?

-How was it?
-I heard La Ri-ma was there.

Rumor has it that she's terrifying.
Was it okay?

We were worried you'd get scolded.

Why would she
when Ma-ha did nothing wrong?

Because she's been playing the sister.

I'm La Ri-maha!

Gosh, stop that.
Just don't let it bother you.

What are you talking about?

They said I was just like her

and asked me to do
my copycat act on stage.

I totally killed it today.

I killed it as La Ri-maha.

We all know how good of a dancer she is.

Whatever.

I don't know if I did well,

but I at least did my best.

You can see how I did when the show airs.

You see...

-Just tell me.
-Tell you what?

Is this the padded jacket
you gave to her that day?

You were there.

Are you insane?

I told you numerous times not to.

You can't just give this to anyone.

-Dae-gwon--
-Stop biting his head off.

-What's going on.
-Look at this.

[SHAX]

-Our sixth-anniversary jacket.
-Anyone can see that.

Anyone can tell
it's a high-quality jacket from the fans.

Not unless you take a closer look.

He asked for smaller lettering

since bigger ones look tacky.

Not too obviously visible.
It's all about fashion.

Still.

You gave it to her near the set.

All right, fine. I'm sorry. My bad.
Let's stop it there.

You exchanged this jacket,

talked, and danced with her.

Fans could've seen you
through their high-end cameras.

Remember last time

with the "made in Japan" cap?

You're too much of a softy.

She has a boyfriend
who even came all the way to Mungyeong.

-Okay, fine. We get it.
-What's wrong with what I said?

-Come on.
-We have a busy day tomorrow.

Ma-ha!

No wonder she refused to get in.

-Bye.
-See you tomorrow!

You're probably exhausted too,
so get some rest.

Right.

Sorry about all this.

Where's I-hyeon?

Where else?

Your agency has a studio
packed with the best equipment,

so what are you bothering me for?

But my mentor isn't there.

You booklicker.

Haven't all the songs
been selected though?

Yes.

1,400 offers came in for our lead single.

The agency has been narrowing it down,

but they all lack in some way.

That's because you're greedy.

Just write all the songs then.

I wouldn't mind that.
If only I had the time.

Anyway,

isn't it about time you went your own way?

Working for someone else is easier for me.

I don't have any weapons or the courage

-to enter the jungle.
-One can always muster up the courage.

And I'll help with the weapons.

This isn't good.

We'll start again from the top.

[Delete]

["Idols on Air"]

Here's your order.

-Thank you.
-Please enjoy.

It's been uploaded.

It's Ma-ha's first appearance
on a weekend variety show.

-There's Ma-ha!
-Don't get all worked up.

The show just began.

[This is "Idols on Air".]

All right.

Isn't there something fun to watch?

["1 Night 2 Days"]

Pass.

[KBC]

I forgot the show was today.

The opening was sweet.

Ryok, why don't we watch it
while it airs for a change?

["Idols on Air"]

["Idols on Air"]

[Here's La Ri-ma's sister, Lee Ma-ha.
Please welcome her!]

[I'm La Ri-ma's sister, La Ri-maha.]

[Self-introductions on "Idols on Air".]

[-Let us continue.]
-What on earth?

[Next on stage is Yu-ji of 3YE.]

The dance was edited out.

But you looked so cool.

["Idols on Air"]

You did nothing as Ma-ha
nor La Ri-maha for that matter.

This is what I call a devil at work.

You danced in the opening of the show.

I did.

That's odd.

Why is Ma-ha trending online though?

What?

-Really?
-What?

Mr. Park, that was quite the swing.

Flattering me as always, are you?

It's definitely something I have to learn.

I hear you'll soon announce
some good news.

That's hardly the case.

It's all just a rumor.

Aren't we too close for this?

At least give us a hint.

Sir.

We have a situation.

[Boycott SHAX]

[Fins demand an official statement
from SHAX and NOG]

Ryok!

[SHAX]

Ryok, look at this.

["Fins Release an Official Statement"]

[Why was
the official custom-made padded jacket]

[gifted to the members of SHAX
to commemorate its sixth anniversary]

[in the hands of A?]

[Handing it over to a third party]

[is an act of betrayal
laid upon SHAX's fans]

[Boycott SHAX]

and we have hard feelings toward NOG
who stood idly by as this happened.

[Fins demand an official statement
from SHAX and NOG]

Until NOG and SHAX present
a reasonable statement or reason,

we will boycott SHAX

by withdrawing our support

[Boycott SHAX]

and refusing to buy or listen to
any of its music.

Cut. Okay!

Hey, did you hear about this?

[Hyuk]

["Fins Release an Official Statement"]

[Fins demand an official statement
from SHAX and NOG]

[-Apologize!
-Explain the video.]

Can you finish up here for me?

Ryok, the video of you dancing
is all over the Internet.

What?

Wait. What on earth is this?

[Unaired recording of
SHAX's Kwon Ryok dancing]

You've got to be kidding me.

[It's La Ri-maha.]

[I danced with a star today.]

What are you doing?

Others are working their butts off
for this new album,

but you're here playing on your phone.

Where's your head at?

Look at her pathetically
going to great length.

She's trying to climb to stardom
on Kwon Ryok's back.

If looks could kill...

I'm just saying that
flirting is a privilege

only those as popular as Kwon Ryok have.

She's loving it, don't you think?

As if you'd scare me, you dork.

Unbelievable.

The Copycat just had to get in the way.

So much for making time
out of your busy schedule

[Queen]

to get something going with Kwon Ryok.

I bet she planned to use you

[Queen]

to reach stardom.

How could she have planned it

when I put her in my clothes?

It sure feels lousy though.

-I want to release a new single.
-Really?

We're always on standby.

A duet with Ryok.

You know that'd be difficult to arrange.

-Because of Mr. Park.
-Why?

Does he still think I'm not good enough?

Sir.

I'm La Ri-ma.

I'm a top star, and so is Ryok.

It'd be nice to have two top stars
join hands with each other.

When does our contract expire?

Gosh, you...

I want to do it no matter what.
Okay? No matter what.

[NOG Entertainment]

[Is copying La Ri-ma all she can do?]

[I hate her so much.]

[Such an attention-seeker.]

[How dare that copycat flirt with him?]

[She's determined to copy La Ri-ma.]

[Why does Ryok have to apologize?]

[I hate her so much. Copycat.]

[-Why does Ryok have to apologize?]
-What do I do?

[The copycat should.]

-Ma-ha.
[-La Ri-ma copycat.]

Forget it.

Don't be intimidated.

He's getting criticized
because of me, right?

Kwon Ryok?

Should I explain myself?

If I say that it's all a misunderstanding,

wouldn't his fans understand?

I'll be there with you.

What? You want to hold
a press conference or something?

Or do you want to post an apology,
saying it's all a misunderstanding?

Let's just stay low and not stir them up.

SHAX's fan club, Fins,
is the biggest fandom.

They can aggressively demand
whatever they want.

They can even lead
critical public opinions.

They're on the same level as SHAX.

Then what can I do?

There's nothing you can do, Ma-ha.

You'll just have to sit by and watch.

Then what will happen to Ma-ha?

Poor Ma-ha...

[Is copying La Ri-ma all she can do?
Such an attention-seeker.]

[Kwon Ryok thinks his fans are a joke.]

[-Kwon Ryok thinks his fans are a joke.]
-He thinks his fans are a joke?

[Look at him smiling like a fool
dancing with the copycat.]

[He thinks we're a joke.]

[It's my first time seeing him smile.]

[He's even smiling.]

[Kwon Ryok thinks his fans are a joke.
We want him out.]

They want him out?

What do I do?

-I told you not to read them!
-Let's just leave it be

until things cool down,
just as Mr. Ji said.

You could've sent it via mail.
Why did you give him in person?

It makes me mad again, thinking about it.

He's the one who gave you the jacket.

It's not like you dragged him out
to dance with you.

Why didn't I think
that he's a member of SHAX?

But what do they mean
that he thinks his fans are a joke?

Isn't this too much?

[Unaired recording of
SHAX's Kwon Ryok dancing]

[Add a comment]

[Don't you think it's a misunderstanding
that he thinks we're a joke?]

[Add a comment]

[Why would Kwon Ryok
like someone like her?]

[Kwon Ryok and her? There's no way.]

What?

What is it? What is it again?

[Hello, I'm Kwon Ryok of SHAX.]

[Firstly, I'd like to apologize]

[for causing trouble
due to my lack of judgment.]

[A rumor regarding my jacket is not true.]

[I only lent my jacket to an extra
who was trembling in cold.]

[Boycott SHAX]

[I got it back from her
because I met her on the show.]

[I apologize.]

[The kindness I offered to her]

[I'm happy thanks to you guys.]

[is the love I get from you.]

[The dancing clip]

[is from the show.]

[I apologize.]

[Please don't get it wrong
as it's been edited.]

[Dear Fins. I'm always grateful
for your love and support.]

I'm happy thanks to you guys.

I love you. From Kwon Ryok.

The kindness I offered to an extra?

That rude jerk.

He's right. It was indeed warm.

What? I don't need to worry now.

What a relief.

I worried about him for nothing.

It seems like you're still concerned
about him.

No, I'm not!

["Call Me" by OMEGA-3]

[Dear Kwon Ryok. From Lee Ma-ha.]

You acted all cool in the letter.

Follow us outside.

I apologize once again
for causing trouble.

-We apologize.
-We apologize.

[Boycott SHAX]

[Why did that singer have that jacket?]

We're going to keep an eye on you.
Stay out of trouble.

You know you guys are all we have.

We'll repay your love with better music.

Just look at me.

I'm glad they get us.

Now I can sleep with no worries.

Don't let your guard down.

La Ri-ma and La Ri-ma copycat.

They're the first ones
you should watch out for.

-You guys!
-You guys!

-What?
-We were really sad!

-They called me.
-No, they called me.

-I'm so happy.
-I'm relieved.

A handwritten apology letter

and a fan-meet?

You can't post a writing

without discussing it with us.

I didn't want to cause trouble
with something so trivial.

-We're a team.
-This happened because of us.

-So we should handle it ourselves.
-And we did.

Okay, I understand.

Good work. Go and get some rest.

"We're a team.
This happened because of us."

So we should handle it ourselves.

[CEO Park Jin-man]

They've become quite arrogant.

Maybe we trained them well.

-I apologize, sir.
-Forget it.

Who's involved with Ryok again?

She's in Tea Party.

-Which agency is she with?
-She's with JH Entertainment.

-JH Entertainment?
-Ji-hak's agency.

My gosh.

What a coincidence.

I was going to explain myself first.

So

why did you post it before me?

I know very well

where I stand.

JH Entertainment feeds its celebrities
three meals a day.

Ta-da. Enjoy.

-Thank you for the food.
-Thank you for the food.

Do you know what day it is?

Just one of those days.

What day is it?

You guys receive a salary. How come
you don't know when your payday is?

I transferred the money.

[JH Entertainment, Ji-hak]

[JH Entertainment, Ji-hak]

[JH Entertainment, Ji-hak]

I'm not sure if we can receive this.

We're not making any profits, are we?

It's okay. Don't worry about that.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

And also, we need to release an album.

I got the songs I've been waiting for.

Really?

How many did you receive?

23 songs.

-Yes!
-That's incredible.

Come on. You should eat up.

-Okay. Thank you!
-Thank you for the food.

Let's eat.

["I Can Only See You"]

How is it?

What do you think?

It doesn't sound like our song.

Okay. I can request another song.

No, no. Why don't we listen to it again?

Sure, the more we listen...

No, you don't have to.

I can tell from your face
that you don't like it.

Our faces?

You don't have the excited face you had

when you had fun with the song.

You see,

I don't want to

produce you
like a factory producing products.

I want you

to have your own identity.

Identity.

It's more pressuring
now that I got the salary.

Will we be able to do a good job?

What do you mean?

I'm worried about our debut
on the music show.

And that voice keeps ringing in my head.

The moment our song started playing

when we got up on the stage, they said,

Stop! We don't have much time.

Please get off the stage now.

We were dragged off the stage.

This is our historical night,

so let's take a photo.

Shall we?

Waiting for tomorrow's sun to rise,

-OMEGA-3!
-OMEGA-3!

[You don't have the excited face you had]

[when you had fun with the song.]

Our song.

That's OMEGA-3's debut song.

["Call Me" by OMEGA-3]

Our own identity.

["Call Me" by OMEGA-3]

[Composed by FRIEZE,
Written by FRIEZE, AMMONITES]

Ha-seok, FRIEZE wants you in his studio.

Yes, you'll get the guide
within this week.

Don't worry.

The tracks for the EP album
turned out well.

Of course!

Don't worry.

Yes, yes. I know. Okay.

Okay, see you. Bye.

Gosh, he even asked for a discount,
and now he's pushing me?

Hey, you're here.

Remember what I told you last time?

You need to work on that first.

You know that song request.

The one that pays a lot.

You look good in pink.

Hello?

I'm not sure if you remember us,

-but we received a song from...
-Producer FRIEZE.

We received a song from
Producer FRIEZE. We're Tea--

OMEGA-3!

We're OMEGA-3.

Sorry?

Yes.

Okay, thank you.

What was that? Why was the call so short?

He wants to meet up.

Don't be nervous.

We're performers who have a part
in OMEGA-3's song.

Seeing how he wants to meet up,

he'd give us permission on the remake,
wouldn't he?

We'll have to talk to him first.

Maybe we should've told Mr. Ji.

It's too early to tell him
since it's not confirmed.

When we do, let's tell him as a surprise.

Anyway, let's clearly tell him
what we want.

Okay.

Are you AMMONITES?

I'm sure you had lots of other songs.

Why did you choose that?

It sounded like us.

It's the song we got on the stage with
three years ago.

Although we got dragged off the stage
without even singing the song.

We got a chance
to perform on the stage again,

but that song didn't.

I keep thinking about it.

We want to pull it out, just like us.

I always drop things. Darn it.

Hey, are you done?

Did you finish it?

Are you still working on it?

I finished it.

-FRIEZE.
-Yes?

Do you remember OMEGA-3?

Is that some kind of pills?

We gave them a song called
"Call Me" three years ago.

-I did?
-I made that song,

although you took the credit for it.

Does that pay us well?

No, it was never released.

If it doesn't make money,
then it's not a song.

Gosh.

Hand it over to me.

What is it, an apartment?
How can I hand it over?

Come on.

[I danced with a star today.]

Let's work together.
I'll do the producing.

But there's a condition.

Let's change the lyrics.

We were going to ask you that also.

You should write them. With your stories.

That's my condition.

-Okay.
-Okay.

And you can only use the recording room
for two hours in the morning.

That's the only time it's available.

It's okay. We can even go
earlier than that.

At dawn? Or in the middle of the night?

♫ It's really precious ♫

♫ I'll fill your hands ♫

[I'll fill your hands with the delight]

♫ Special, we're far from ordinary ♫

[Special, we're far from ordinary]

♫ Special, we're far from ordinary ♫

♫ We turn into clear flowers ♫

♫ That bloom in your fantasy ♫

♫ This is a magical adventure ♫

What are you doing?

What's wrong with them?

[Remake! AMMONITES]

AMMONITES?

Ha-seok.

What a small world.

I didn't know Tea Party
was signed with you.

I was wondering what they were up to.

Let's keep this a secret.

And also...

It's not a lot, but it's for the song.

I'd be too pressured to work on it
if I receive this.

Just take it.

You and the girls are the same.

I also

came to give you this.

The girls also paid for the song.

Please use this on them.

Tea Party revived the song...

that even I forgot about.

Why does it keep floating?

Guys, have you seen my hoodie?

What about my sweater? No?

Where on earth is it?

Don't be nervous. Let's get started.

Okay.

♫ You love me into my ears ♫

♫ Everyone copies us ♫

♫ Special, we're far from ordinary ♫

♫ Our popularity never dies,
they all go crazy ♫

♫ Shining, flash, everyone goes crazy ♫

♫ Sparks from my head to toe, fire ♫

♫ Everybody rocks the party ♫

I'm so nervous.

Where's the restroom?

That was good.

Could I try that one more time
from the eighth measure?

Sure, okay.

♫ Tonight, that starlight
lights up the sky ♫

Why won't you pick up?

My gosh, you startled me.

Isn't that I-hyeon of SHAX?

What are you doing now?

Oh, recording in secret.
What brings you here at this hour?

I sent you a message.
I need to let Ryok listen to a song.

Was that today?

Ryok the hit song detective
can only come now.

I sent you a message on that too.

You make me really sad.

♫ I'll present the magical melody
to everyone ♫

♫ It's now, show me, I'll show me ♫

Anyway, who's she?

What?

The vocalist of the first team
I'm producing, Tea Party.

You're the producer?

Tea Party?

Hello, I'm Hyun-ji of Tea Party.

Where's Ryok?

Excuse me, Ryok.

Thank you very much.

I was going to upload an explanation...

On what? Explaining what?

Sorry?

I'm really grateful for all your help,

but why do you always do this to me?

I thanked you last time
for letting me borrow your jacket,

then you got angry saying
if all I can do is copying La Ri-ma.

Then I suddenly put you in a tight spot
when I asked you to dance with me,

so I was going to upload an explanation,

but I saw that you did it first.

That's why I'm thanking you right now.

You keep pretending like you don't know.

Why do you do this to me?

Anyway, thank you very, very much.

[Men's restrooms are on the 2nd floor.]

[Men's restrooms are on the 2nd floor.]

My mistake.

Hey, you're back.

What? You're already done?

Hey, that's Tea Party's main vocalist.
Ri-a, you're the best!

Thank you.

It's I-hyeon of SHAX.

-It's early, but you're good.
-Sure.

-Ma-ha, are you ready?
-Yes!

Let me get some work done.

What's going on?

Okay.

Let's do it.

-♫ I'm sorry, I'm a little ♫
-Again.

-♫ I'm sorry, I'm a little ♫
-You went flat. Again.

♫ I'm sorry, I'm a little ♫

You're off-beat. Again.

♫ I'm sorry ♫

Again.

You copied La Ri-ma boldly,

but you're scared to sing your song?

If you're going to be like that,

forget everything
and keep living as her copycat.

Let's take it again from the top.

That's more like it.

That jerk.

♫ Special, we're far from ordinary ♫

[NOG Entertainment]

Why did we only get five members?

I should've gone double
to quadruple the sales.

The songs are out.

Go set on a concept
with the choreography team.

And the release date?

It doesn't matter when we release it.

We have to let them know
for other groups to be scheduled.

Just go with the 22nd. The 22nd.

Send the song to the stylists
and make sure they have the style concept.

You know we don't overlap our schedules.

We're fully booked until next month.

Okay, then.

All right.

SHAX's promotion for 4 weeks,
nothing less than 100,000 dollars.

-Is it negotiable?
-Never.

All right.

Tell them to send us the song now.
And the choreography.

All right.

Do they think
we can make these outfits for free?

You have a guest here.

I'm not expecting anybody. Who is it?

It's an emergency.
Let me ask you for a favor.

We charge a lot, you know.

I know that.
That's why I'm asking you for a favor.

I heard the rumors.
Was this a three-piece group?

-And the song?
-Not yet.

Make sure you send them over
when you have the song.

Never mind, I'll go.

It's better for me to go
than to have the three of them come.

Our next showcase is a huge hit too!

We were sold out in 30 seconds!

Yes, this is us.

It's us, the sons of the devil,

-SHAX!
-SHAX!

-Gosh, 30 seconds?
-Seriously.

-Great work.
-That's amazing.

Great work.

Okay. Let's get started.

Wait, Yu-jin, go to the center.

Sorry?

Okay.

[Music Holic]

Yu-jin, you take the center
for this promotion.

What? Me?

What's wrong? You don't want to?

No, I'll do my best.

Your promotion begins soon, so stay sharp.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Great work.

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

Great work, sir.

-Yu-jin!
-Hey, Yu-jin.

Congrats on becoming the center.

-Great work.
-Great work today.

Don't mind him. It's okay.

Let's make sure we show people
what Sparkling is all about.

Tae-geun, when is the comeback for SHAX?

The 22nd.

It's close to our release,

but SHAX doesn't go on music shows.

If we continue doing this,
we'll completely own the music shows.

Hey, Yu-jin, your eyes.
I love it. I love those eyes.

♫ I jumped in without fear
and put all my tears behind ♫

♫ I got this expectation
for my bright future, and now I say ♫

♫ T, we're strong, Party, don't stop it ♫

♫ I got this, all my dreams came true ♫

♫ Tonight, that starlight ♫

♫ Lights up the sky ♫

-We got this!
-All right!

-We did it!
-It happened!

Great job!

["Show Me" by Tea Party]

♫ Into my ears ♫

♫ I'm your Tea Party ♫

What do you think?

It really says Tea Party. I like it.

My gosh, come on. I'm so relieved.

I like it. It's great.

I made some choreography too.

Why is your practice room
in a place like this?

Wasn't it tough to find?

I had to circle around like 100 times.

But still, you got everything you need.

-Who is she?
-Right, say hi to her.

She's the stylist who'll create
Tea Party's outfits and style,

our savior.

Let's skip the introduction.

Can you show me
what you were doing just now from the top?

-Right.
-From the top.

[KBC]

Okay. It passed the review at once.

And next.

We're called Tea Party,
and the song is great.

Please take a listen.

Okay. Sure. I'll take a listen.

Thank you.

Ji-hak.

A meeting? You used to get
all the shows you wanted for SHAX.

Right.

I didn't know it's this tough
to find a slot for a rookie group.

Did you get a lot?

Four?

Man, I'm reminded of my old days.

JH Entertainment, come in, please.

Okay. Bye.

Ji-hak, I know you'll do well.
You can do it!

["New Idol Group,
Tea Party Releases 'Show Me'!"]

They're Tea Party.

["Music Arena"]

Tea Party.

["Tea Party,
a Girl Group on the Payroll!"]

You finally have a song.

I have a video here too.
Please take a look.

That's a cute style.

All right. Ta-da.

-Thank you for the food.
-Thank you.

Thank you for the food.

Anyway, you have to perform soon.
Are you sure you can eat ramyeon?

We starved all day long
without you, Mr. Ji.

We practiced all day long,
so nothing is on our minds.

We're bloated anyway,
so we can add a little.

I see.

But the date has been set.

-When is it?
-In two weeks.

Three minutes on "Music Arena".

You let your guard down, Hyun-ji.

Why are you telling us this now?

Please excuse me.

This is the most appropriate hour
to eat ramyeon.

Aren't you going to eat?

Give me just a little more time.

Ma-ha will come for you.

Ma-ha will really make it there!

-Yu-jin!
-Congrats, Ma-ha.

And we'll be on the same stage
on the same day.

Really?

Ma-ha, let's own that stage together.

Okay.

Let's completely own that stage.

I always prayed
that I'll get to perform with you

on the same stage.

[KBC]

Let's go.

-Let's greet them.
-In 1, 2, 3.

-Hello. Always happy, Tea Party.
-Hello. Always happy, Tea Party.

Let's go.

[KBC]

Hey, Yu-jin!

Ma-ha!

We finally meet here.

I can't believe this day finally came.

-Congratulations.
-You too.

[Epilogue]

I'm late.

[Music Holic Audition]

[Lee Yu-jin]

Is this your first time?

[Lee Ma-ha]

I was like that at first.

You'll get used to it pretty soon.

You can do it!

Hey...

Lee Ma-ha.
