(Episode 15)
What are you doing?
- What? - Who are you?
Who was that?
Lee Joon Suk!
Why did you do that? Why did you do it?
Why did do you that?
Why? Why?
Why?
What did you say to Sung Hyun?
What did you say to him?
What do you think?
What do you think...
I said to the crippled kid?
Don't do that.
Hey, he called you a...
Hey, say that again.
- Say that again! - If...
If you do that...
I become pitiful.
I won't make you pitiful.
I think it's hilarious...
that you're enraged.
I don't know about others,
but you shouldn't act like this.
You have no right to do this.
My whole life depends on this song.
Jinu can release a another song later.
Are you this dumb?
What good would it do?
This money is much more than the royalty you get for songs.
I'll make sure you get more money.
You should think about the next album as well.
You will be punished.
Even if this world is crazy,
you will get punished.
You get punished for what you did.
And I...
will get punished for what I did.
I wonder what "Go Ahead, Cry" by Jo Ha Neul will sound like.
"Legend Again".
Don't give it up. Make sure you do it.
Let's me enjoy...
a comedy show.
I'm sorry.
It must've been hard.
It must've been so hard for you.
It must've been so hard.
I'm sorry I couldn't be with you.
I'm really sorry.
That rascal.
Doesn't he know what time it is?
Hey.
Did you just come home?
Did you stay up all night at the office?
My goodness.
What's wrong?
I guess you're super tired.
Get some rest.
Sleep tight.
Bye.
Mr Shin's phone is off. Did something happen to him?
He's at home.
He came home this morning...
and passed out on the couch.
I asked him what's going on, but he didn't say anything.
He isn't the type to be like this unless it's something serious.
Why is this happening when we need to prepare for "Legend Again"?
Is it okay if I go see him?
Let's leave him alone today.
I think he has reasons he can't share with us.
Gosh, he's still in bed.
Suk Ho.
What in the world happened?
You didn't eat anything today, did you?
Gosh.
Get up and talk to me.
Yes! Finally!
Here's the song.
Let's try it out tomorrow.
- Wow. - Nice.
Why don't we show it to Mr Shin first?
Geu Rin.
What? Me?
What's wrong? Are you sick?
I'm not sick.
I said we finished the song.
Can we start practising tomorrow?
Mr Shin is a little sick.
He's been in bed all day.
Mr Shin is sick?
Did he see a doctor?
I was thinking of going to see him,
but we decided to let him rest today.
The leader can't be sick.
I'll go buy some porridge.
There's water over there. Give him some.
Okay.
Mr Shin, it's me. Geu Rin.
Are you very sick?
You can't do this. The leader can't be like this.
I'll get some water. Drink a little.
Hi.
How's Mr Shin?
I don't know. He keeps sleeping.
He won't drink or eat.
He keeps sleeping.
That's not good.
What about you? Did you eat?
Yes. I had something simple with Man Shik.
- Did you really eat? - I ate. And you?
We always eat well.
Let's start practising the song Kyle did the arrangements for.
We can't do nothing.
Okay. I'll tell them.
Please make sure to eat,
at least for my sake.
You've been treating me...
like a sister again lately.
Have I?
Why? Do you miss having me treat you like a friend?
No. It just reminds me...
of when we first met.
I was really happy...
to have gained a little brother.
Although you were much taller than I was.
I still feel the same.
I'm glad I have...
a cute little brother.
Go to sleep. You look tired.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hello. - Hello.
Is Mr Shin not here yet?
Is he coming?
What? He said to meet him here.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Hi. - Hello.
- Hi. - Did Suk Ho tell you to come?
He isn't here yet?
Is something wrong?
Both Suk Ho and you look like you've lost weight.
Goodness.
He's here!
Hi, Suk Ho.
Mr Shin.
For the past few days,
I was going through some difficult things.
Sorry for making you worry.
I feel like it's been more than 10 years.
There was a young friend whom I really cherished.
He was a great songwriter...
and sang really well, too.
So...
I introduced him...
to an agency.
He was too talented...
to let it go to waste.
He didn't want to...
and said he couldn't do it, but I convinced him.
You see,
he couldn't walk properly.
After making the introductions,
I went to Moscow on business.
When I returned,
he had died.
They said it was a heart attack.
He never got to release an album.
Over 10 years later,
I met his little brother.
Jo Ha Neul.
That friend...
Jo Sung Hyun's little brother, Jo Ha Neul.
What's wrong? Why are you suddenly...
talking about us?
Let's not...
go on "Legend Again".
What?
I finished the arrangement.
You said it's a huge opportunity.
Why would we give it up?
Ha Neul can't sing...
"Go Ahead, Cry".
Mr Byun. Do you know what's going on?
That song...
Stop it.
I will...
I will explain.
Choi Joon Ha's second album...
was released...
by KTOP, where Suk Ho and I used to work.
Sung Hyun's song...
was really good.
That's why it's still around today as a legendary song.
Didn't you say his album was never released?
What are you saying?
Choi Joon Ha's song, "Go Ahead, Cry" is...
Sung Hyun's song.
"Go Ahead, Cry" is...
not Choi Joon Ha's song.
It's your brother,
Jo Sung Hyun's song.
Wait a minute.
Are you saying...
he stole my brother's song?
Is that what it is?
- And another thing. - Suk Ho.
He has to know.
He's the only family left.
What is it?
What's more to it?
Sung Hyun...
didn't die of a heart attack.
After what happened,
he jumped into Han River.
So...
we should...
opt out of...
"Legend Again".
- Suk Ho! - Suk Ho!
- Mr Shin!
Suk Ho. Hey, Suk Ho!
Get up. Suk Ho!
Aren't you feeling tired?
Do you want to go for a drive?
This must be hard on Suk Ho.
I know I shouldn't be thinking this way,
but I keep thinking about "what ifs".
Long time ago...
at that time,
if Suk Ho hadn't met my brother,
my family may be...
living happily right now.
My brother would be here,
and my mum and dad would be alive as well.
You'll also be with us.
We'll be living an ordinary life.
You're right.
If that was the case,
your parents wouldn't have disapproved you for wanting to sing.
They wouldn't have been on their way to stop you,
so they wouldn't have gotten into the accident.
I keep thinking the same thing.
I want to turn back time.
But think about this, Ha Neul.
When you got out of the jail and we were struggling to move on,
and when you gave up on music,
if Mr Shin didn't step into our lives,
you wouldn't have cleared your name...
or played music.
We would have lived like that.
Do you think...
I'll be able to face Suk Ho again?
I'll think of my brother whenever I look at him.
Do you think I can bear looking at him?
Ha Neul.
This is difficult for both you and Mr Shin...
My brother...
didn't have anyone beside him.
He was alone...
in the cold.
He was miserable and lonely at his last moment.
But Suk Ho and I are still here.
My brother...
is not.
(Jo Sung Hyun)
Something occurred to me on my way here.
If you and I...
weren't so far apart in age,
it would have been better.
Then,
you would have discussed everything with me,
and you wouldn't have gone...
feeling so lonely.
Sung Hyun.
I...
hate the fact that Suk Ho is...
in my life.
("Go Ahead, Cry")
Sung Hyun.
Shall we go home now?
Or do you want to grab something to eat?
I need to go see...
Lee Joon Suk.
Are you saying you want to go to KTOP now?
- Ha Neul we should wait... - I have to see him.
I'll be back. It won't take long.
Let's go together.
I won't see him for long.
I'll be right back.
Sure. You should bark at least once.
We meet for the first time, right?
How shall I greet you?
Whatever I say will make you uncomfortable.
I don't want to hear anything.
I don't want to hear any noise coming out of your filthy mouth.
After my brother,
Jo Sung Hyun,
died because of you,
my family grieved for many years. You aren't worth knowing the sorrow.
There is only one thing I want to say.
It looks like Suk Ho did that to your face.
I'll kill you quietly.
No,
I'll make you die...
like you...
did to my brother.
I'm worried Ha Neul might not be able to sing...
"Go Ahead, Cry" or any other songs at all.
He finally found out how his brother died.
Do you think he can get through it?
Ha Neul must be having a really tough time.
Kyle, what are you doing? Why are you ripping the music?
Kyle.
We don't need this.
How can Ha Neul sing this song?
Can you watch him sing the song?
Mr Shin's right.
Let's...
not do "Legend Again".
You're right.
Ha Neul's heart must be breaking.
Let's not do that show.
We'll have other opportunities.
I'll sing it.
Don't do it.
How will you sing this song?
If he's your bother, then he's our brother, too.
Do you think we're crazy?
Some guy...
took your brother's song, hit it big and made lots of money.
We'd be crazy to sing this song.
I won't do it. I'm not going to play it.
- No, I'll sing it. - Ha Neul.
Don't tell me no or wait.
You should...
sing it if you want to.
Geu Rin, but it's...
I don't think Mr Shin's decision matters this time.
Ha Neul's decision matters.
I'll make arrangements for the show instead of Mr Shin.
Let's sing it well.
If you want to sing Sung Hyun's song, go ahead.
You should sing it no matter what, because it's his song.
I'll go talk to Mr Shin.
I'll drive you.
I want to go alone.
Where did he go?
I went out to get him some caramels, and he disappeared.
It's already dark outside.
He's phone is off. Where did he go?
I was out just for a second. How could you miss him?
Mr Byun.
My brother...
What was the bridge my brother was on?
Let's record your song after I come back.
They'll think I'll release an album if I record my song.
Mr Byun and Mr Lee are really good people.
Don't be nervous and just do what you do.
They'll love you even if you only show half of what you got.
Do managers usually bluff a lot like you?
Well, I guess managers do have to sweet talk.
He must have been so cold.
He must have been so lonely by himself.
Sorry I'm here too late, Sung Hyun.
What are you trying to do?
You'll die if you fall off.
Are you going to kill yourself?
Are you going after Sung Hyun?
Are you going to leave me all by myself?
It hurts...
It hurts my heart...
just to breathe.
Jo Sung Hyun!
Sung Hyun!
Suk Ho.
Where were you?
I went for a walk.
We thought something happened to you. Min Joo and I were worried.
I remember it all.
My brother...
wouldn't even go out with my parents.
My family never ate out once.
Sung Hyun was uncomfortable with having people around.
But...
he changed once he became friends with a guy named Suk Ho.
On their days off,
others managers would stay at home,
but his friend Suk Ho...
always came over to our house and took him out.
Cheers!
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Have a bite.
I thought I won't be able to see him again.
But he came to me after my brother was gone.
It was Suk Ho, my brother's only friend.
Then,
he took my side,
and let me sing.
He cleared...
my name.
Suk Ho, let's not try to comfort each other any more.
Let's stop being sad.
Geu Rin was right about it.
If...
you and my brother didn't meet,
I don't know what could have happened.
But if...
you didn't show up again after all this time,
what would have happened?
It'll take time,
but let's not talk about "what ifs".
I'll do the same.
He's right, Suk Ho. Let's get back on our feet.
I discussed...
this with the rest of the band members.
We are...
going to perform on "Legend Again".
("Go Ahead, Cry")
I'm going to sing my brother's song.
That's what we decided on,
so we need you to get back up.
Get yourself together and restore...
my brother's song.
I'll die some day, right?
If there's something I must do before I die, this is it.
I must...
get Sung Hyun's song back.
I'll help in any way.
Have you thought about how you are going proceed?
There's only one way.
It's Choi Joon Ha.
I have to find him before the performance and make him confess.
Do you think we can find him?
I was at the TV station for a meeting today,
but they've already tried looking for him.
They wanted to have him on the stage as well,
but he's been in hiding since that time.
Who was the closest...
to Choi Joon Ha back then?
Yeon Kyung used to talk about him a lot.
They might have kept in touch.
There's a lot of people asking about him lately.
Some people from the TV station came.
It's been a while since I've seen Joon Ha.
I don't think he's in Korea.
Around five years ago, we met for a cup of coffee.
He told me his dad wasn't doing well and was staying at a nursing home.
I don't know how he's doing now.
I think he comes back once a year to visit his dad.
Do you know where the nursing home is?
I don't know where it is.
He did say he came after visiting his dad though.
I think he was coming from Yeongwol.
Yeongwol...
(Yeongwol Sol Nursing Home)
Hello.
I'm looking for a patient whose last name is Choi.
He's my father's friend, and I owe him a lot.
But I'm not sure about his first name though.
Did you say his last name was Choi? Give me a minute.
Is it Choi Jin Goo, by any chance?
Is his son's name Choi Joon Ha?
I really need to see him. Please help me out.
I don't think you'll be able to speak to him.
He has a bad case of Alzheimer's,
so he doesn't even recognise his son when he visits from Australia.
Did you say Australia?
Kyle.
I'm sorry for saying this,
but can we try another arrangement?
Why? Is it bad?
No, that's not what it is.
("Go Ahead, Cry")
Hey, this is...
It is.
This is my brother's original version.
This is pure art.
You can't say it's just another arrangement.
Let's go with the original.
Thank you.
I'm sorry, guys. We'll have to start over.
It doesn't matter to us.
I'm so honoured.
We'll be playing the version by the original composer.
What do I do? I'm getting nervous.
You're getting nervous? Come on.
Let's get started.
Why are you calling me?
How are you doing?
I'm scraping by.
Are you working for Joon Suk again?
Yes.
Joo Han.
- He abused you so much and... - I am...
going to punish him before I call it quits.
You're looking for Choi Joon Ha, right?
Did Joon Suk ask you to find him?
He did.
Are you going to fly to Australia?
That was fast.
I'm faster than you think.
He's not in Australia right now.
I've already been there.
I asked around and met his family.
They said he's back in Korea.
Choi Joon Ha is here.
Why are you telling me this?
Let me take a few punches and call it a draw.
I know I betrayed you and hurt you.
I was blinded by ambition and threw away loyalty and honour.
Beat me up.
I'll take it.
I have no right.
I was the same way.
I'm telling you...
before Lee Joon Suk...
to try to make up...
for what I did to Jo Ha Neul,
although I know it'll never be enough.
- He's in Korea? - Let's check every hotel.
This is a list of hotels where Choi Joon Ha may be.
Let's split them up and stake out in the lobby.
He has to leave at least once a day, right?
I'll be at the nursing home.
He hasn't visited his father yet.
It may take days. You want us to just camp out in the lobbies?
We have no other choice.
Sure. Hotels are very secretive.
They won't give us their client's information.
Which hotel should I go to?
I'll gather photos of him first.
I can't let him slip by.
The anniversary of your passing is coming up again.
I always come back for it,
telling myself, "This is the last time."
But...
every year,
I stand here.
Isn't it suffocating in there?
Australia is vast and the air is nice,
but...
I can't breathe.
No matter where I go,
I live in prison.
Hang in there.
It'll get better.
This isn't it either.
I stayed all night.
I camped out by the elevator to the garage, too, just in case.
But they flagged me as being suspicious...
and kicked me out instead.
I'm really feeling my age now.
I'm achy all over.
We can't do anything by splitting up.
There are so many ways in and out.
I'll head to the nursing home.
I'm sure Mr Shin hasn't slept or showered in days.
You're not even well. You can't go all the way there this late.
Look.
Everyone here is worried about Suk Ho.
We all have many years with him and care deeply about him.
I don't think it's right, going all the way to Yeongwol...
this late at night to see Suk Ho.
You asked for money last time.
Then I had to publish an explanation because you got...
some strange photos taken.
What now?
Go golfing with some hotel chairmen?
I can't golf because of my back.
Then gather them all and buy some drinks.
Why must I do that?
Help me out.
I'll listen a little.
Not even, "I'll listen", but "I'll listen a little"?
Do you call that an offer?
Forget it. Forget it.
I'll listen.
I'll come visit twice a month. What do you say? Sound good?
And one blind date.
No.
Forget it then.
Fine. Once.
So, whom are you looking for?
Choi Joon Ha. He's a famous singer.
Someone all the hotel workers know.
It's been a while, Joon Ha.
I found Choi Joon Ha.
Kyung Hotel, room 2004.
But my dad's friend said...
Lee Joon Suk used all his contacts at hotels to find him, too.
Jo Sung Hyun's brother?
Didn't the TV station call?
They're having younger singers...
sing a remake of your song, "Go Ahead, Cry".
They gave that song to Jo Sung Hyun's little brother.
How ironic.
Because of that, he found out everything that happened between us.
Do you remember Shin Suk Ho?
He was a newbie manager.
Also, Jo Sung Hyun's friend.
The kid who introduced Jo Sung Hyun to me.
You've never met, so you probably don't know what he looks like.
He's the CEO of the agency that signed Jo Ha Neul's band.
He's looking for you like crazy.
I looked for you...
to say let's keep things like this.
Your kids must be all grown up.
You shouldn't become a disgraceful father,
complaining about guilt or your conscience.
It'll become nasty.
If Suk Ho digs things up,
you will bear the brunt of it all.
Aren't you afraid?
The entire nation will point their finger at you,
especially since you stole the song from someone who was disabled.
You'll be a disgrace.
Don't let yourself get caught,
and go back today.
I came to see Choi Joon Ha in room 2004.
Please call him and tell him that I'll wait down here.
The guest in 2004 checked out.
What? When?
He checked out and left not long ago. Let me check.
Okay.
They're cleaning his room now. He already left.
Can you please...
give me his number?
Please.
I can't give you our guests' information.
If you'd give me your number, I'll leave a note.
He left something in the safe.
If he calls about it, I'll relay the message.
In that case,
may I have a memo pad?
- Here you go. - Thank you.
(Pork Rinds)
Cheers.
They say Moscow is really cold.
Stay alert and don't freeze to death.
Hello,
I'm Jo Sung Hyun's friend, Shin Suk Ho.
I leave this message because I really want to meet you.
I understand why you couldn't sing your favourite song...
and lived in hiding for these many years.
I don't resent you.
And I have no right to resent you.
I committed the same wrong.
I took a song from an unknown songwriter using money and power...
and gave it to a famous group.
And the day that album was released,
that poor and unknown songwriter left this world...
because of me.
It's been a while since you came. Why aren't you drinking?
I'm waiting for someone.
Okay.
So how could I dare resent you?
I'd like to meet you, just once.
The anniversary of Sung Hyun's passing is in two days.
I will wait at the restaurant which he used to love.
It's a barbeque place in the alley in Jinheung Market.
Let's have soju together on the anniversary of his passing.
I'll wait until you come.
Please. I beg of you.
Come back another day.
I'll make you something tasty on the house.
I need to go home.
You do?
I'm sorry.
How much is it?
