Original subtitles

This would never work.

It's a survival program, and you want them to lip sync?

Don't turn them into laughing stocks.

It's Ms. Yoo's decision. It's not something I can help.

Why did you come all the way when they're certain to fail?

- What's this? - I rearranged the song.

Play this one instead.

Let me play the keyboard.

Chan Young, please play the bass part.

Don't be ridiculous.

The rehearsal is over. We're not doing this for fun.

You should try everything you can.

Han Gyeol is right.

You're going to fail anyway.

What do you want to do? Do you want to just be laughed at?

Or do you want to be laughed at after showing them what you have?

You're watching "Produce 20" on BTBC,

a survival audition program for trainees.

There she is.

- It's So Rim. - So Rim!

- Hey, be quiet. - The program is exclusively...

- The program is exclusively... - That's So Rim.

- That's my girl. - Please.

Yoon So Rim, Baek Jin Woo and Lee Kyu Sun...

is a high school rock band,

Bong Trio.

Start the music.

What's going on?

What are you doing?

There's no sound. Please take a look.

Sound Director. Director?

Hey, keep it down.

- Be quiet, I can't hear. - Turn it on.

Sound Director. What are you doing?

No issues on the floor.

Hurry up and check what's happening.

Sing.

Sing, So Rim.

These days.

You look worried.

Camera three. On.

She's singing.

She's singing, so turn on the microphone!

Hey, turn on the microphone. Turn on the floor microphone.

- Hurry. Hurry up. - What's that?

Seo... Seo Chan Young.

- Hey, turn on all the microphones. - Anymore.

Actually, you used to smile a lot.

Get back on your feet.

Before anyone starts worrying about you.

Your bright smile.

Will welcome me.

It won't be easy.

We need to talk later.

- Becoming an adult - Goodness.

That's good.

Everyone feels the same as you.

Let's cheer up.

Go back to who you are.

Let's sing a song of hope again.

You can look forward to the world that's waiting for you.

We can start running again.

If you get worn out.

- And you want to give up - Isn't that Seo Chan Young?

Really?

Just sing a song of joy cheerfully.

One day today will become a memory.

Let's be thankful.

- Remember it - She's so good.

And cheer up, my friend.

It won't be easy.

Becoming an adult.

Guys, be quiet!

Everyone feels the same as you.

Let's cheer up.

Go back to who you are.

Let's sing a song of hope again.

You can look forward to the world that's waiting for you.

We can start running again.

If you get worn out and you want to give up.

Just sing a song of joy cheerfully.

One day today will become a memory.

Let's be thankful.

Remember it and cheer up.

- My friend - That's awesome!

- Remember it - Remember it.

- Let's be thankful - Let's be thankful.

- Remember it - Remember it.

- Cheer up - Cheer up.

My friend.

- Clap! - Yes!

They're number one!

Yes!

So Rim, that was wonderful.

Great work. You did much better than I expected.

I'm sorry we didn't make it, sir.

We already knew who would go up and who would get cut.

I won't focus on something that's meaningless.

You shouldn't mind it either, okay?

- Let's clean up and go eat. - Okay.

Chan Young, are you free?

No, I have to go for a shoot.

Right, your album's out.

Great work today. Enjoy your food.

I'll call you.

Okay.

Okay, let's go eat.

Kyu Sun, we arrived pretty fast.

Thank you for dropping us, Han Gyeol.

You didn't have to.

Soo Yeon asked me to take you guys.

The taxi didn't cost that much. Don't show off.

We'll get going then.

- Please take So Rim home safely. - Hey.

- Why is he taking So Rim? Let go. - Hey.

You did well today. I'm sure you were nervous.

I wasn't nervous.

I believed it was a song I could sing well.

You said you were true to me at least with your music.

I'm sorry...

for lying about myself to you.

But I'll tell you everything you ask instead.

If you want to know, I'll tell you everything.

Don't say that.

Then I'll want to ask you everything.

Even the things that won't matter at this point.

What could that be?

For example...

What kind of love did the man I like have?

Who was she, and how much did he love her?

Was it his first love like mine?

I'll only ask stupid questions like that.

It's not exactly because I want to know the answers.

Then what should I do?

I'll do whatever you want.

Then answer me one thing.

One?

Yes, just one question.

If you wrote the lyrics...

while thinking of me, doesn't that mean it's about me?

Do you express your current feelings...

in the songs you write?

No.

It's not like that.

That's good. That's all I needed.

I better go in.

Okay.

Bye.

(Happy Fruits and Vegetables)

What did you do?

Are you trying to ruin me?

Why are you doing this to me?

- It's an equipment hiccup. - A hiccup?

Fine, we'll call it that.

However, why was Seo Chan Young coincidentally there?

They played a song they didn't practice during the rehearsal.

Are you going out of the way...

to make your trainees popular?

That's why we almost had a broadcasting accident!

Do you think I'll let you off easy?

What's the problem?

Ms. Yoo.

What did Mr. Choi do so wrong...

to be yelled at like that? The whole studio can hear you.

That makes me feel uncomfortable.

It's nothing, Ms. Yoo.

I guess you're doing this because it could've been a big problem.

It was the crew's mistake. Why are you blaming him?

BTBC, Who Entertainment, and Sole Music.

We're all part of Who Media Group. This is unacceptable.

Yes, you're right.

I have a meeting to attend. I should go.

- All right. Good job today. - Thank you.

- Thank you for your help. - You don't need to thank me.

I don't like it when people stomp over those who work for me.

I liked the arrangement of the song. Whose work is it?

- They must be good at quick... - My gosh.

You don't even have an excuse ready.

It probably wasn't your doing.

Then was it Chan Young?

Gosh, how cute and daring.

I can now see him in a new light.

Mr. Choi.

Next time, tell me what's going on between Chan Young and that girl.

- You traitor. - Stop!

How can you perform without us?

- You're Si Hyun, right? - No, no.

We feel so betrayed.

("Who Is the Rookie that Performed with Seo Chan Young of Crude Play?")

- Cheers! - Chan Young.

Articles are already coming out. It's probably because of you.

- Protect and preserve us. - Protect and preserve us.

- Long live the nation. - Long live the nation.

Gosh.

- What was that about? - Why did you drink so much?

- You little... - All right.

You told me to drink. Are you kidding me right now?

- Are you okay? - So who's the winner?

- What do you mean? - Between you and So Rim.

Did you guys settle?

Sort of.

So did you win?

It's not war. There's no winner or loser.

It is war.

If romance isn't war, what other kinds of relationships...

What if the opponent doesn't want to win?

In a battle...

where the opponent doesn't want to win,

I can't win either.

Are you drunk?

Isn't he drunk? He's definitely drunk.

- He's drunk. - You're so drunk.

- You don't get it, do you? - I think you're just drunk.

- Hey, I said... - So Rim, great performance.

- Yoon So Rim! - Yoon So Rim!

- Yoon So Rim! - Guys, be quiet.

She's a celebrity now.

You were amazing yesterday.

I bragged about it to my friends.

You rocked! My gosh!

- But why did Chan Young join you? - That's right.

Can you get me his autograph?

- Me too! - I want his autograph too!

- I want one too. - It's...

- Yoon So Rim! - Yoon So Rim!

- Stop it, guys. - Yoon So Rim!

- Yoon So Rim! - Yoon So Rim!

You guys!

What are you all doing when you're supposed to be studying?

Hey, Yoon So Rim!

My gosh, I really enjoyed your performance yesterday.

You're such an incredible singer.

I knew from the get-go that you'd make it.

Gosh, I got so excited when I was watching your performance.

Sir, would you like a photo with her?

- Oh, yes! That'd be great. - Give me your phone.

- Here you go. - Get out of the frame, guys.

- 1, 2, 3. - Go away, guys.

Guys, get out of the frame.

Okay, 1, 2, 3.

Get away.

- 1, 2. - Go, Yoon So Rim!

- You rock! - Go for it!

Thanks for these snacks. I'm not sure if it's okay to accept them.

I just wanted to congratulate you.

You looked so pretty on the show.

Not at all. I saw celebrities there...

and realized how ugly I am.

No.

By the way, do you know Seo Chan Young personally?

Well, we're managed by the same agency.

- Is that all? - What?

He played the guitar for you.

Isn't that very special?

Plus, he must be very busy now with their newest album.

How close are you guys?

Well... It's...

- Yes. - Just a second.

- Se Jeong, go back in first. - Why?

I have to take this call.

- Who is it? - What?

Why are you trying to make me go in?

You can just answer it in front of me.

Is it someone from the agency?

- Seo Chan Young? - It's not like that.

Come on. It must be him.

You wouldn't be so secretive otherwise.

Let me see. Please?

- Show me. - Why are you being like this?

(My dear grandma)

I told you that it's not him.

You should've just shown me.

What couldn't you show me your phone? What a stuck-up.

Hey, it's... What was that all about?

("Spectacular Surprise on 'Produce 20'")

Gosh, this is amazing.

Mr. Choi, the number of views and comments...

on the clip are double of what other participants received.

It's going viral on social media too.

Chan Young volunteering to be their session musician certainly helped.

The mistake itself ended up being great marketing for us.

They are so lucky.

It's as if someone is laying out a path for them to debut.

Let's move faster...

so that they can debut before the buzz dissipates.

Sure, no problem.

- That's it for today. - Okay.

Oh, Mr. Choi.

The program will be releasing the song as a single this week,

and they want to know who arranged the song.

Shouldn't the credit go to K?

Shall I tell them it's K?

Next time, tell me what's going on between Chan Young and that girl.

Han Gyeol.

Am I your personal chef?

I'm always the one making hangover soup.

- Ma'am. - Ma'am?

Why are you totally fine?

It's because you guys are lightweight.

Gosh, hey. Are you okay?

This is really tasty.

Hey, Jun Seok. I'm with the guys now.

Right, the practice. Okay. Bye.

Jun Seok will be here shortly. Eat quickly and wash up.

I'm handsome even when I don't take a shower.

How can you call yourself a celebrity?

I am a celebrity.

What? Is he already here?

I haven't even washed my face yet.

They need more time to get ready...

I didn't know you'd be here.

- Mr. Choi. - Hello.

This is actually good. I don't have to say it twice.

Have you eaten yet?

("Clever Arrangement Meets a Fresh Voice")

("Spectacular Surprise on 'Produce 20'")

So the one who actually arranged the song...

is Han Gyeol, not Chan Young?

Yes. I think they had an argument 30 minutes before the show.

Chan Young ended up listening to Han Gyeol though.

I can't believe Han Gyeol...

was willing to make a song for complete newbies.

It wasn't even discussed in advance.

I know. What's strange is that...

the song arrangement credit was given to Seo Chan Young...

according to the show's production team.

The song So Rim and the guys performed on the show...

will be released as a digital single this week.

The arrangement credit will be given to Chan Young.

What do you mean?

Why would I get the credit for Han Gyeol's work?

If we say that K did it, it'll look as if it was all planned out.

It happened accidentally, and it's been great marketing for them.

Also, having your name in there will help them get more attention.

Your fans will support them too.

Still, I'm not comfortable with that. Don't you agree, Han Gyeol?

I'm okay with it.

It's not like I wanted to get something out of doing it.

Han Gyeol has agreed to it, so we'll move ahead with it.

I don't want the credit.

I didn't do the work. It makes me feel like I'm stealing it.

It'll bother me.

Why?

You admire Han Gyeol, and you can put your name to his song.

Isn't it a good thing?

I beg your pardon?

I was just kidding.

Anyway, be understanding because it'll help So Rim.

It's just an arrangement.

Don't be so sensitive about it.

You're not here to ask my opinion.

You came to notify us.

Do whatever you want.

Chan Young, Chan Young.

Chan Young.

Hey, what's wrong? Where are you going?

- Did you have to say it like that? - No matter how I said it,

he wouldn't have been happy about it.

- Hey, Han Gyeol. - Han Gyeol.

Chan Young.

Don't take what he said to heart.

He's not suggesting it to belittle you.

- You're better than me in many... - I know.

It's easy to use me. I know that.

No more excuses, please.

Mr. Choi always ruins the atmosphere.

Chan Young has a good reason to feel offended.

Mr. Choi is playing around with you two.

Why did you go along with it?

You should be able to say no.

I went along with it because I was really okay with it.

What?

Mr. Choi is right.

We should say Chan Young arranged the song for So Rim's sake.

It'll make people to be interested.

Are you saying you're doing it for So Rim's sake?

- Is that weird? - Yes, very.

I don't know.

Whenever So Rim is involved,

I want to be a good person.

What should we do?

- He's doing it again. - I don't know.

Leave him alone.

What should we do with him?

These days.

You look worried.

You probably don't know what to do.

We used to sing together.

Has she closed the store yet?

Hello.

You picked up right away.

You always call around this time.

Were you waiting for my call?

No way.

I just wanted to get it over with.

I'm so happy someone invented the telephone.

I can call you whenever I miss you.

Sound travels the fastest after light, you know.

- That's not true. - Sorry?

There's something that travels faster than sound.

Take combat planes for example. They...

Did you study natural sciences in high school?

Yes.

I see.

I feel like there's a massive barrier between you and me.

It doesn't matter though.

You sound like you've become even stronger.

I realized...

I can't cut away my feelings just because I want to.

So I've decide to nurture them instead.

On that note, if you have time...

What are your plans for this weekend?

I have no plans.

Do you want to meet up with me?

- Why? - No special reason.

I just want to meet you.

Okay. Let's do that.

See you this weekend then.

- Bye. - You hang up first.

- You should hang up first. - You hang up first.

Fine.

Yes!

A special promotion for the 30th anniversary?

Yes. Yoo Na has been Serendi's model for five years now.

This year, we'd like to cast top actors or artists...

for a bigger-scale promotion.

We'll produce promotional gifts and release songs too.

You're going to renew Yoo Na's contract, right?

We haven't come to an agreement yet.

By the way, Mr. Choi,

could we cast Crude Play?

Crude Play keeps being mentioned as a candidate.

I couldn't answer you right now.

What do you say to a collaboration?

Crude Play and you?

Yes.

That could be an option for us.

That could work. That's an idea.

Is collaboration between Crude Play and Yoo Na really possible?

I don't see why not.

But if Yoo Na's contract doesn't get renewed...

and Crude Play just takes her place, it'll look bad.

You're putting me in a difficult position.

The thing is, we're having a talk with another company.

Who Entertainment.

Thank you in advance.

Mr. Choi is here.

You seem busy. I'll get straight to the point.

I heard someone at your company might take Yoo Na's contract.

We're talking about it.

They said they'd cast some of our new singers.

New singers?

Do you mean the ones who participated in "Produce 20"?

Nothing is decided yet.

While we're on the subject, how is your new singer doing?

I mean So Rim.

Why don't you give her to me?

I'm not interested in the other two. I just want the girl.

- What are you... - I'm getting curious.

Han Gyeol and you went out of your way for her.

When you want to know about a girl, you should look at her guys.

What? You even lied about who arranged that song...

to keep Han Gyeol out of this.

Are you disappointed because I already know about this?

It was for the band's sake.

Han Gyeol just went along with it.

Anyway, if you give her to me,

I'll see to it so that Yoo Na's contract gets renewed.

If you can take her,

will you let her debut?

What's the point of asking that?

Considering the situation, you won't be able to let her debut either.

Don't tell me you're considering choosing that girl...

over Yoo Na.

You should be careful with girls.

Yoo Na must be on edge these days.

Imagine she loses her contract she has been keeping for five years.

She'll be very disappointed.

- Grandma. - Yes?

Look. Which is better?

The one before is better.

- The one before? - Yes.

Gosh, what should I wear?

Pink looks best on me,

but Han Gyeol's favorite color is blue.

Should I wear blue?

If I wear his favorite color, wouldn't it make him like me more?

Stop making such a fuss.

What is so great about him?

Fine, he's kind of good-looking and dexterous.

He seems to play the piano very well too.

But is that such a big deal?

Still, I want to look pretty to him.

You look pretty no matter what you wear. Don't worry.

If he doesn't think you look pretty, bring him here.

- I'll teach him a lesson. - What?

What?

What should I wear, really?

Wear that one.

- What should we do? - What?

We have to do something together.

What should we do?

Sorry. I didn't think much about it.

Should we get something to eat? Or should we go to a cafe?

I'm just pulling your leg.

- I want to do something special. - Like what?

I don't want to just eat something or go to a cafe.

We should do something you like to do.

That's what I want to do.

What I like to do?

Where are we going?

We're not going anywhere.

I just wanted to be on the bus.

This bus?

You said we should do what I like to do.

This is what I like to do, listening to people on the bus.

- But there's no one here. - What?

- Is this too boring? - No, I like it.

I do. It's great.

What do you do after listening to people's voices?

If I find a tone I like,

I'd make a song that goes well with it.

I see.

Since I only compose for Crude Play,

I got used to Si Hyun's singing.

It was hard to think in diverse directions.

So I give myself a diversion sometimes.

Tell me if you find a voice you like.

I will.

What are you doing?

What? It's nothing.

- What is this? - I just...

You can continue.

Continue what? What could it be?

Do you mean this?

Was it this?

Here I go.

We'll take the next question.

Yes, Cheonan Sports' Yeo Si Woon.

You were able to be placed as number one on the chart once again.

How does it feel?

You're always in first place. Do you get sick of it at all?

I thought we would too.

However, we're always thankful and happy...

that people love our music.

Next question?

S Star Days, Choi Gyu Sung.

I'm Choi Gyu Sung.

It's about your album.

Did you record all the instruments yourselves?

- Pardon? - You know,

you have a really tight schedule.

I'm just curious where you get the time...

to play so perfectly.

That's true.

We know what the public expects from us.

We're always trying our best.

Si Hyun, you're so good at answering questions.

You were able to dodge the question.

What I want to hear is yes. That's all.

Yes.

We play and record everything ourselves.

It's such a given question.

We were just stunned...

because we didn't know what you meant. Am I right?

You are a talented band.

Many people will continue to keep an eye on Crude Play's future moves.

Yes, thank you.

Thank you for your interest and love, Choi Gyu Sung.

I'll take the next question.

- Is it good? - Pardon?

You're really enjoying it today.

I didn't get to have my afternoon snack today.

Do you always have snacks?

Yes. It takes hours...

after a meal for the next.

I get hungry.

Hey, it's Crude Play.

(His low voice steals women's hearts.)

Chan Young is so cool.

Why does my back hurt all of a sudden?

Hey. I can't see.

I need to stretch.

Move, I can't see.

(He dominates the stage with his bass.)

You see him every day. Why do you want to watch him so much?

I'm still a fan. I liked him since they debuted.

That's because you don't know the real side of him.

If you knew,

you'd lose interest.

Why is that?

We named the band that way because we were lousy.

Hey!

We just put together simple words from the dictionary.

Crude, play.

All we did was just have fun.

We're telling everyone with the name that we're lousy.

- I never heard of it. - What?

Stories about you when you were part of Crude Play.

I wish I could see the Crude Play you were part of.

There's Chan Young now.

Of course you should play with Chan Young too.

Two bass guitars.

I'm not sure.

Will that day ever come?

The weather is nice today, right?

You're right.

- Sorry. - Hey...

You should be careful!

My goodness, that man.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Be careful.

So Rim, your shoelace's undone.

Oh, you're right.

When you tie it,

do a double knot so that it doesn't get undone so often.

Like this.

My goodness!

What do I do?

Gosh. I better get going.

Hey, Yoon So Rim! Yoon So Rim!

Your mother was upset that we were meeting without her.

I saw her last week too.

It's so hard to go on a date with you alone.

Hyun Joo and Jae Sun are always looking for a chance too.

Right. Jin Hyuk is coming later.

Mr. Choi?

He's doing a good job with raising Sole Music.

It'd be a good idea to eat with him to encourage him.

That was only possible because of Who Entertainment.

Also,

you shouldn't be too nice to people.

They will confuse their titles.

Don't order your staff like dolls.

You need to learn how to handle them.

What controls the dolls...

are very thin threads.

If you're too rough, they're bound to break off.

- It's been so long, sir. - Welcome.

Take a seat.

I have high expectations of you, Mr. Choi.

I believe having an eye for people is a talent.

It's the hardest to do, and easy to miss.

An agency starts and ends with people after all.

They're also the dream.

You're absolutely right, sir.

That's why I would like to debut...

a new group to plan our future.

A new group?

Is this the first since Crude Play?

Yes. Thanks to the chance Ms. Yoo gave us on BTBC,

the public has started to recognize this group.

Do you think they're fine too?

Yes. They have an easy-to-approach image,

and the vocal is great.

I'm sure the public will react if they were to be released.

- Sir, allow me to pour you a drink. - Sure.

Did you rent this whole place again?

I needed a place to talk to you quietly.

It's not about something personal,

so don't get sensitive.

I want to do a collaboration with Crude Play.

What?

I know you make all of their songs,

so I should discuss it with you first.

I know there are issues between us,

but we're in the same agency. It's a win-win for both sides.

I'll decline.

- What? - I don't plan on...

getting in the way if you want to collaborate with Crude Play.

However, I won't be able to write a song for it.

You said you liked it.

You liked my voice.

You loved the way I sang.

Didn't you say that as a composer?

Yes, I did.

But it's different now.

You're so mean.

Must you stomp me like this?

Is it because my voice was damaged?

- That's why you won't give a song. - It's not like that.

Then What? What is it?

I only want one woman...

to sing my song.

I don't have the time to think about a song for someone else.

I'm sorry.

Who is it?

That girl.

I don't think I have to tell you who she is.

You keep disappointing me, Mr. Choi.

I didn't know you'd use such a low trick.

Did you think that would catch me off guard?

I'm not sure what you mean.

What good would come out of it for me?

You mentioned it to the chairman without my approval.

How much influence do you think it'll have?

When I took charge of the label, he guaranteed me only one thing.

Being able to choose and scout my artists. Do you know why?

It was to make sure that I could scout hidden gems...

whom we can easily lose in midst of an unnecessary process like this.

But I've been making sure to always report to you first...

because I wanted to be nice to you, the chairman's beloved daughter.

Is that so?

Then I shall stop being an unnecessary decision-maker...

and get involved properly in producing the new group.

Mayvey will be the main model for the commercial.

We'll be extending the contract for the new season,

and I'll recommend your new group including Yoon So Rim for that.

You don't need to...

What are you talking about? I'm giving you a golden chance.

You won't say no, right?

Well, the one who will lose the commercial will be hurt.

A woman getting hurt isn't a big deal. For you, that is.

My goodness!

Why did I do that?

Why on earth did I do that?

I must've been out of my mind. Goodness.

What is the matter with you?

Grandma, I must be crazy.

- What should I do? - Are you not going to come in?

Come in.

("Waiting for You")

("Waiting for You")

Did you guys do your homework? Coming up with a name for your band.

Yes, of course.

What is it?

Here it is.

"Mush and Co"?

It doesn't sound bad. What does it mean?

There are three of us, so we wanted the name to be a combination...

of things that represent each of us.

So Rim's hair looks like mushroom. That's where "Mush" comes from.

- I'm "rice". - Why is that?

You can probably tell by looking at me. I love rice.

- Koreans must eat rice. - What about you, Jin Woo?

I'm the rich and handsome guy of the group.

All right.

So far, I'm following. But how did you come up with the final name?

We thought that "Mush, Rice,"

"and Rich and Handsome Guy" would be too long, so we picked one.

So you were picked because you're the only girl in the group?

No. Rock-paper-scissors!

I won like this.

Guys, this isn't a joke.

I like it. It sounds like you guys put no thoughts into it.

That's your concept too.

Clueless newbies on stage.

That's it for today.

Could you check if we can use the name?

- Sure, no problem. - Practice hard.

- Goodbye. - Thank you.

- Nice. - Hey, we're Mush and Co now.

Mr. Choi, the article announcing their debut will come out this week.

Don't we have to tell them?

I like surprising people.

It'll be no fun if we tell them in advance.

It'll finally hit them when they read the article.

I guess Chan Young will read it abroad.

Chan Young...

He'll read it if he sees it.

When I laid myself down in a bathtub.

A little snail.

You admire Han Gyeol, and you can put your name to his song.

Isn't it a good thing?

And whispered to me.

One day.

In a distant future.

Hi, Chan Young.

You answered so quickly.

I'm happy to get a call from you. It's been a while.

Sorry, I've been a little busy.

I didn't mean to make you feel bad.

Did you finish everything for today?

Yes. I'll be doing a photo shoot abroad for the next few days.

That's why I'm done a bit early today.

We're on our way back to the agency now.

Really? I'm still practicing here too.

Until this late?

I've never been to an empty auditorium before.

- Seriously? - Yes.

I feel as if we've rented this entire space. It feels nice.

It's so quiet too.

For some reason, empty spaces...

always feel quieter than they actually are.

Why?

Am I wrong?

Is it because I'm so used to being cheered for?

- There's something odd. - What is it?

I don't feel scared at all when I'm alone here.

Why do I feel so scared and lonely when it's filled with people?

We realize that we're alone when we're among people.

When you feel that no one...

among all those people is on your side,

loneliness can surge up, and it's more terrifying than anything else.

And I know it too.

The fear of performing alone on stage.

Well, the members of Crude Play are always with you.

You want us to debut as Crude Play without Han Gyeol?

We can't do that. I absolutely cannot do that.

A stand-in will always be just a stand-in.

That's why I've always wanted my own band.

I wanted to find where I can belong.

Hence, I needed someone who trusts me.

I think I can do it with you.

Someone whom I can trust.

Someone who believes in my music.

- In Ho, hi. - Hi.

You're amazing.

Oh, it's getting late.

- Are you here to practice? - Yes.

Soo Yeon said I shouldn't be late. I'll get in trouble.

- Hey, take it easy. - Okay.

You're such a hard worker, practicing until this hour.

I wasn't practicing. I was just having fun.

It was just for fun.

- You play for fun too, right? - Sorry?

Don't you ever play drums just for fun?

- Kyu Sun. - Hello everyone.

I'll get going then.

What's with him?

Sorry?

He didn't want to bother us.

You are a talented band.

Many people will continue to keep an eye on Crude Play's future moves.

Are you okay? You've been making a lot of mistakes today.

Let's stop doing this.

What? Why?

I think it's time to stop.

We never get any good comments anyway.

We're not doing this to get good comments.

It was kind of liberating to read all the criticism.

That's at least really meant for us.

That's not a good enough reason to go on.

What if people find out we don't play our songs ourselves?

We shouldn't risk ruining Crude Play's name...

just to hear people's opinions on our playing.

Who would that be for?

It's...

Si Hyun, don't you agree with me?

Don't you?

In Ho is right.

I think we should stop.

Still, shouldn't we at least finish this song?

It's our new song.

Let's do it one last time.

Okay?

1, 2, 3, 4.

Gosh, why does she have to say something so mean?

Dododo0818?

(It's a waste of data. Stop uploading these.)

You should know better than to leave a comment like that.

You have talent for writing hateful comments.

It's not what it looks like.

We're deleting our account.

You won't be able to leave any mean comments anymore.

Do you expect me to play along with that joke?

Can't you?

I'm not in a very good mood today.

Did something happen?

I just feel so humiliated.

Someone asked us if we're real,

and I couldn't say anything.

It's all fake.

Except for our appearances.

I've never done it.

I've never said anything bad about you guys.

I know.

I also know that all the good comments were written by you.

What?

I remember your e-mail address.

It's the same as mine except one letter.

Mine is ysh0303,

and yours is ysy0303.

Can't you just stay there?

I'll come to you.

I'll come to you as fast as I can.

Can't you just stay there?

("Waiting for You")

How should I give it to her?

Search "Mush and Co" now.

It's upsetting.

This is us,

- isn't it? - Unbelievable.

I should call Mom right now.

Is this article about you?

- Are you debuting? - It seems so.

- Are you real celebrities now? - It's unbelievable.

You guys are amazing.

- Congratulations. - That's amazing.

What are you thinking?

What do you mean? I'm thinking about money.

So Rim...

Do you want to ruin the new guys?

I always put business first.

You shouldn't rush it like this.

I know you love to market your artists as geniuses,

but this talk about a fast debut and everything...

will only raise people's expectations.

Then they'll have to go beyond their expectations.

It's easy to say that.

- How are they going to do that? - I'm not sure.

Maybe they'll need a song written by a genius.

So Rim.

I'm debuting.

I know. I read about it.

Congratulations.

- Will it be all right? - What do you mean?

Our single will cost 12 dollars.

It has the same price as 1kg of mushrooms.

I'm not sure I'll be able to sing a song...

that's worth that much.

You can do it.

I can make it happen.

Let me write your debut song.

The song is already ready.

Give it a go.

I'm confident.

I wrote it for you. Will you listen to it?

("Waiting for You")

If you decide to be with me,

I'll never leave you alone.

I think you can do this.

I trust you,

and you trust my music.

I can't.

What?

I already promised Chan Young.

I'll be working with him for the next three years.

I promised him I'd do my best...

and go to him whenever he calls me.

So I can't listen to this song.

Don't be silly.

You didn't sign any contract or anything.

It's just something you said, isn't it?

Still, Chan Young meant it.

I can't break my promise.

There's no bassist this time too.

It's so annoying.

Are you not even able to play the bass part?

Don't ruin the original song.

- Thank you, Kyu Sun. - You're welcome.

- Aren't you late? - Me?

It's okay. I can be a little late.

I see.

Everyone at school is fussing about your debut.

I can never seem to talk to you. I'm so sad.

Oh, I see. You're sad about it.

Kyu Sun, do you want to go out with me?

- What? - Go out with me.

Why me?

What are you talking about?

Why do you think? Because I like you.

- Good job. - Thank you.

Thank you.

- What brings you here? - You look busy.

You must be, since you're preparing to debut them in a rush.

Did you come here just to get the reports?

No way. Why would I waste time on something like that?

I told you, didn't I?

I told you to focus on what you have instead of doing this!

What will you do now?

I already promised Chan Young.

I told him I'd work with him for the next three years.

Father.

Kang Han Gyeol.

Long time no see.

(Lovely Love Lie)

Don't bother differentiating real music and fake music.

You're out.

It's been five years, but you still treat me like an outsider.

Give Yoo Na a song, and I'll give So Rim to you.

How can you think of something so ridiculous?

- What? - I already made a promise to you.

I'll pay you back for choosing me. I promise.

So don't get in my way.

What's with that scary face?

Why did you do that?

- Hey. - Do you live around here?

There is someone that hates me,

but I really love that person.

I have someone like that too.

Your debut song has finally been selected. Are you excited?

Do you want to hear it?
