"Not bad." "JO Areum." "The hand gestures and expressions are fine." "HAM Hyoun-sang." "LIM Ha-nui CHOI Eun-young CHOI Eun-hye." "Duresori:" "The Voice of East." "A Pansori major KIM Seul-ki." "He flings the door open and strikes his brother." "Directed by CHO Jung-lae He flings the door open and strikes his brother." "See that rascal Nolbo, holding a club and shouting." "You thief, listen to me!" "It's our fate to be rich or poor." "I have a large stack of rice on my front yard, but I wouldn't give any to you." "KIM Seul-ki?" "Yes." "You did good, but where's your costume?" "Please, no need for that." "I knew you'd do well!" "It's in your veins!" " Is your grandmother well?" "  Yes." " It's her 50th year, right?" "  Yes." "Is she having an anniversary concert?" "I think, near her birthday." "Okay, I see." "Alright, you can go." "Well done!" "Yes, it is." "That is right." "If we are to live 500 years, no need to hurry." "Hold on!" "  Is it the major exam?" " Yes, we are." " He's the new composition teacher." " Nice to meet you." "He's new to traditional music, so I wanted to show him." "Okay, from the beginning." "Yes, it is." "That is right." "They always talk about her." "So annoying!" "Let it go." "You get it all the time." "It really bugs me." "How was your exam?" "  Well..." " You did good, right?" "  I sung twice!" " Blimey!" "I'm not taking it away." "I'm borrowing it!" "No!" "Just for a fucking moment." "We'll give it back!" " Never!" " Wanna get a smack?" "You can't have it!" "What's this?" "None of your business." "Just borrowing something." "Bitches, you're taking it away." "  Bitches?" " It's obvious!" "Shut your mouth!" "You're the bitch, you ugly." "What?" "You're calling me a bitch?" "Right, I said bitch!" "What are you doing?" "Huh?" "Hey, Areum." "Another trouble?" "What's the problem?" "It's time to grow up." "It's your final year!" "Anyway, how is your aunt?" " Is her business okay?" "  Yes." "You want to go to a national university for the cheaper fee." "Then you'd apply for a special admission in September." "But what about your grades?" "Attendance is so important." "It's a fierce competition and you'll fail with your attendance." "What did he say?" "Bitchin' on and on." "Go in." "See you in a moment." " That was long." "What was it?" " You know, college." "Wait a moment." "Hello?" "Yes, Principal!" "Yes, sir." "An official letter?" "Korean music meets Western music." "August 15th 2010, Seoul Youth Education Committee." "Sir, it says "suggested to participate."" "That's more frightening." "We're a national school." "Organized by the Education Committee means we have to do it." "You're right." "But we don't have to worry." " Our students are all talented, aren't they?" " Of course they are." "But it's difficult to practice during the summer vacation." "Do not worry about that." "It's what they can do the best." "The problem is the Western music." "Is there anything we can do?" "I don't know." " Mr. LEE, have a drink." " Thank you." "  It was a long meeting." " Yeah, all the time." "I don't know if it's to discuss, or to give orders." "H-head of year, s-suggestion is more f-frightening." "A-are you c-challenging m-my authority?" "Can't even imitate it." "By the way, have you got an idea?" "Well, not really." "  How about this?" " What?" "Working with another school." "And we form a network." "But the headmaster wants us to do it on our own." "Oh, yes..." " Oh, those ones!" " Who?" "You know, those with poor attendance!" "Silence!" "Put away the phone!" "Sit straight!" "Attention!" "Our school is doing a performance." "Korean music meets Western music." "Hey, what's this?" "You wear a uniform at school!" "It's a traditional music performance." "Mr. HAM will tell you more." "It counts for the attendance, so you all participate, okay?" " I don't hear you!" " Yes, sir." "I'm oh' now." "Hello." "My name's HAM Hyoun-sang." "It may take up your valuable time, but doing a choir is much better than just wasting your time." "I hope we have a wonderful time." "Not much time, so we'll meet in the music room tomorrow." "Okay?" "Is it mandatory?" "It's not compulsory." "But you just heard." "Attendance grades." "A choir singing?" "Oh, jeez." "I know." "Hey, listen to this." "Who am I kidding?" "We're not choir singers, we do a group sing." "A group sing is a choir, silly." "Is it?" "But listen." "Ari-rang Seuri-rang." "This is much better, isn't it'?" "The weather's so nice, but my last holiday's gonna be hell." "There's a winter break." "The entrance exam would take up the winter break." " Could be." " Hey," " you're applying to a national?" " Because of the fee." "Yeah, the fee is cheaper for sure." "That's one reason." " Shall I apply, too?" "  Why?" "I'll give my scholarship to you." "  Yeah, you're the best!" " Aren't I?" "You're asking for it!" "Before we start, we'll do a simple test." " Should I start?" " Yes, please." "Is it right?" "Should I continue?" "I don't know the next part." "Really?" "I thought all music students can read music, but maybe not." "LIM Ha-nui, a senior majoring in folk song." "Let's sing at sight." "Well done." "Hey, she's not like us." " Why is she here?" " Don't know." "She'd missed some classes because of a car crash." "A senior, Jo Areum." "Start reading." "I'll just do a folk song." "What?" "There's no point, so I'll just sing." "Why?" "Because I can't read music." "Start then." "Where is the greatest mountain on earth?" "When I visit there..." " Hi, Aunty!" " Hey." "What about your lesson?" "There's still time!" "Hey, you'd better hurry." "The fee is overdue, you know." "I know." " Soju and beer, please." " One moment." " Seul-ki?" " Yes?" " How's school?" "  I'm getting by." " And studying?" " The same." "Try hard." "You'll perform in Grandma's concert." "Practice a lot, okay?" "Okay." "Hello." "Professor?" "I was going to call you..." "Poverty." "Poverty." "Poverty is my old enemy." "Alright." "You did okay." "But you look cowed when you sing "poverty"." "Put power in it and sing louder." ""Poverty." "Poverty." Like 'this." "And the "enemy" part." "You're saying it wrong." "You need to pronounce it clearly." "Poverty like an old enemy." "Like this." " Can you do it?" "  Yes." "And go!" "Poverty." "Guys, Check it out." "He's so young!" " Mr. HAM in his 20s, Oh, god." " How did you find it?" "On his web log." "Hey, where's our chicken?" "  It's here!" " Alright." "Get the door!" "It's already July." "But we'll still study music in college." "We've done it for all our lives." "Thinking about it..." "It's been ten years!" "Do you regret it?" "Four years in college, and until we die!" "It was fun when I was little." "The grown-ups cheered." "  They loved us." " We were the "musical prodigies."" "To be honest, who listens to folk song?" "However hard we try, people like pop music." "At best we enter the National Music Center." "That's not good." " Who's that?" " My aunt." "Why?" "I ditched lesson." " You ditched?" "  Yeah." "Had a part-time interview." "I'll give you my scholarship." "It's not funny." "You'd feel sorry for your aunt." "Studying music costs too much." "Still, I'm jealous of you!" "Why?" "Because you can ditch." "You think she wanted it?" "She's better than me." "I can't get out of my house." "I can't breathe I'm suffocating." "  You poor thing." " I feel like having indigestion." "To be honest, last time I was a little disappointed." "Musicians who can't read music is like Koreans who can't read Korean." "Attention!" "So, before doing any singing, we'll practice reading music." "I want you to learn things today." "Come in." "Listen!" "This is our pianist CHOI Eun-hye, a composition major." "Give her a clap!" "What is it?" "What?" "Don't ask." "What's this?" "Look at me." "Attention!" "What's this note?" "When you look a score..." "Look at me!" "You get a G clef first." "Attention!" "We never read a score." "We learn from listening." "You're late." "And you missed the last lesson without even calling me." "What did we do last time?" " Song of Mt." "Singo." " That's right." "Start!" "Eorang-eorang eoheo-ya!" "Eoheo-ya, deo-ya!" "My love!" "Have you practiced?" "What is this?" "Have you done any practicing?" "Eoheo-ya, deo-ya!" "Open your mouth wider!" "My love." "Do it right, Areum!" "My love." "Don't stick your chin out!" "Open your mouth!" "Are you somewhere else?" "Listen!" "Today we'll do vocal exercises." "We don't have time for the theory." "Let's practice first." "Piano." "Starting from C, raise the pitch by every 4 beats." "One, two, three, four!" "Hold on." "Sit up straight." "Open your mouths wider." "Try to sing louder." "From C, again!" "One, two, three, four!" "What are you doing?" "What?" "Your note was shaking." "Me?" "Okay, do it again." "Just you." "Start with C." "Do it alone." "One, two, three, four!" "There!" "Your pitch is shaking at the end." "It's called nong-eum." "Nong-eum?" "I've always learnt to do it." "Listen." "Right notes make perfect chords." "So it shouldn't shake, right?" "What's the problem?" "It sounds good." "Exactly." "That's the beauty of it." "Fine." "It's the beauty of traditional music." "But choir is not like Korean music." "Perfect notes make the chords." "So you keep the right pitch." "Understand?" "Then we'll all do nong-eum together." " So annoying!" " What?" "We have to do the choir?" "What about attendance grades?" "And college?" "It'll be the death of me." "Areum!" "Do you have an idea?" "Not really." "You're quiet these days." "Who, me?" "Are you tired doing the part-time?" "Could be." "Anyway, this summer's ruined." "We can't even go anywhere." "Stuck doing some choir." "What's the point?" "Why don't you Skip it?" "That's what I want to." "But they'll call my parents." "Taking supplementary class is a secret." "  If they find out" "  I'm dead meat." "That's why you never skipped it!" "Yesterday, I pushed you too far." "I'll be easier on you today." "We're gonna play a game to see who can sing the highest note." "I can't." "It's the school bell, right?" "Start with the alto part Say "ah."" "Before we start, I have something to say." "I think I've been too stubborn with my own views and music." "A choir makes a great sound when the members communicate." "I've neglected the most important part." "I want to communicate through your beat, melody and grace notes." "We should dream to be one." "Otherwise, the choir's meaningless." "What do you think?" "Altos, first note!" "Mezzos!" "Now, sopranos!" "Let's do it!" "Three, four!" "Okay, that was good!" "Let's change the bell for this!" " Should we." " We should sing it!" "Today's choir was so cool." "It was overwhelming," " wasn't it?" "  A little." "A little?" "You loved it!" " Who, me?" " Yes, you!" "You loved it, too." "Look!" "You got goose bumps!" "You're grinning the whole time!" "Only you loved it!" "I don't think so." "You liked it more!" ""L don't think so"." "Funny accent." "Don't pull up my skirt!" "Stop it." " She's so weird." " Who, me?" "Look who's talking." "Hey!" " Are you guys busy?" "  A little." "Why?" " How about you?" " Going to the dorm." "You wanna hang out with us?" "But why?" "We do the choir and all." "We should be closer." "Let's go." " Tear the squid!" " I want peanuts!" " I want snacks!" " What's with you guys?" "Hey, relax!" "There's so little chips." "It's all air!" "What's the matter?" "  It's awkward." " Let's have drink." " So polite!" " Just use one hand!" "Makes me awkward." "Let's have a toast!" " Cheers!" "  Bottoms up!" "Eun-hye, why don't you drink?" " I wonder." "  What are you doing?" "I drink mine, you drink yours." "Okay?" "A challenge!" "Drink!" "She's drinking!" "You can drink!" "Camellia, do not blossom." "I don't have a lover to attract." "Ari-ari, sri-sri Arari-yo." "I cross over the ridge." "Look at her!" "What the!" "No drink?" "What?" "You got a problem?" "Now we see the real Eun-hye!" " She's letting it out." " She's so funny." "Hey, she's still saying something." "So hilarious!" "You've all got the score?" "What's the title?" "Moving Day." "This is a Korean style acappella I wrote." "It's the newest song." "What's the rhythm?" " Se-ma-chi!" " That's right." "Piano." "One, two, three!" "You got it?" "One, two, three!" "Okay, let's try the 3rd part." "Hello." " Did you practice?" "  Yes." " You got an exam soon, right?" "  Yes." "Which piece do you do?" "Gangwon-do Arirang." "Let's sing with full gestures as it's the exam." "Gather your breath and look ahead Don't lift your chin too much." "A cheerful look, and start!" "You bend your knees to the right, and you put weight on it." "Then naturally your body swings together with your head." "Move and bend." "Move and bend." "Not any longer." "He flings the door open grabs his staff." "He fumbles around and calls for his daughter, "Cheong!"" "Are you reading a book?" "You got no energy." "Pansori is all about energy." "Why are you so feeble?" "And, think of the scene!" "The father is going crazy, looking for his daughter." "Would he be slow like that?" "It has to be quick!" "That was a terrible description!" "You should fit it in one breath." "Sing louder." "In one breath." "At the top of your lungs." "Again!" "Is the choir doing well?" " Of course, sir." " Sure." "  Going well, right?" " Yes, it is." "Okay, let's start the rehearsal." "Sanjo flute solo, JO Seong-sin!" "Applause." "Hold it so the audience can see." "Come out again." "  I go now?" " Yes, with the applause." "Why do you keep moving?" "Stand in the middle." " Do I bow?" " Yes, with the drummer." "Do I bow again?" "No, after the performance." "One, two, three!" "What are you doing?" "Bow." "Run!" "Is it gonna work?" "They're a little nervous, but it'll be ok." " Show us something." " Yes, sir." "Relax, guys." "There are so many houses on the hill." "But no room for our family to rest in." "I put the memories inside the drawer." "The roar of the truck hides the laughter of old friends." "I wake up from dozing and the truck is trundling along." "The poor trip with my poor mom and dad." "Lying on a bench with my parents," "we looked at the stars in the summer night." "That night, we cried to the sound of crickets chirping." "Chirp, chirp." "We wept to their song." "Have a look." "What's this?" "Here." "Well..." "Good afternoon." "Why aren't you all wearing masks?" "Aren't you afraid oi influenza?" "You could die, you know." "Due to the spread of influenza, the performance has been cancelled." "What?" "Be quiet!" "In any event you'll receive the attendance grades." "Consider it a gift from heaven and concentrate on the entrance exam." "So next term, focus on exam." "Alright?" "Understood?" "Let me hear your voices." "Understood?" "Okay, back to work." "You heard him." "It's a shame not to be able to perform." "I'm so sorry." "Sir, I have my lesson." "Can I go now?" "Yes." " Me too." "  Yes." "  I have a lesson as well." " You can go." "So tired." "Yeah." "What would Mr. HAM be doing?" "Mr. HAM?" "Nice to meet you." "That would be wonderful!" "We wanted such performance." "  Thank you for letting us perform." " It's so nice to have you." "!" "Actually, we've never performed before." "They'll be awesome." "No doubt." "Do you think so?" "Well, thank you again." " See you again." " Thank you." " Nice to meet again, right?" "  Yes." "We practiced a lot, but couldn't perform." "So, here we are again." "You like it?" "It's been a while, so let's get your lips open." "What is it?" " Isn't that sexual harassment?" "  Shut up, you moron." "Okay." "Start from eot-mori part." "Alright." "Focus." "Mr. HAM, you know they are seniors." "Yes, I'm aware of that." "I'm fine with it." "But what if the headmaster finds out?" "It's only an one-off concert, but I'll tell him if I have to." "What about the parents?" "They'll think it takes the students' time." "Then I'll get agreements signed from all the parents." "Don't know if it's worth the effort." "Cheers!" "Here." "Oh, I forgot." "See this." "What's this?" "It's for a concert, I need your approval." "What concert?" "You should study." "This is schoolwork." "We get volunteer points." "You do?" "Then do it well." "What?" "Now you're all supportive?" "Areum, sing a song for me." "I feel so happy when you sing for me." " I don't wanna." " Why not?" "It's weird!" "What's weird?" "Can't I hear my niece's sing?" "I'll sing, if you sing." "I'll do it after you." "  Promise?" " Of course!" "For what purpose are you vexed?" "Do it properly!" "For what purpose do you fret?" "There are many things to feel bad about." "So yet let us enjoy it." "I feel good." "Feel so good." "Make the letter really stand out." "Yes." "The rest, I'll leave it to you." "I'll call you again." "Dad." " When did you get back?" " A while ago." "Do you want something?" " Is studying going well?" " It's okay." "Just okay?" "You have to try really hard!" "I'm never too busy to give you a lesson." "Okay." "You got something to tell me?" "Here." "What's this?" "It's for volunteer points." "Hold on." "Hello?" "What made you call me?" "Yes, it's going fine." "Don't worry." "Everything's great." "Thank you for asking." "Okay, I got it." "My mobile's ringing." "One moment." "Hello?" "I'm on the other line." "Leave it with me." "It has to be signed by tomorrow." "Is it?" " Nothing to worry, right?" "  Yes." "Okay." "Hold on!" "It seems out of tune." " Really?" " Let's try again." "One, two, three, four!" "Thank you." "One, two, three!" "What's up with you?" "You want to practice more?" "We are Duresori, the choir of the School of Traditional Music." "Great, that's my girl!" "I put the memories..." "KIM Seul-ki!" "The trio is off to the dreamland." "Hello, we are Duresori, from the School of Traditional Music." "I understand." "It won't happen again." "Who's responsible for this?" " Sir it's..." " I am." "It was voluntary and I got agreements from parents." "You send out consent forms without my permission?" "I'm sorry, sir." "I'm deeply ashamed." "Mr. LEE has nothing to do with it." "I apologize." "I bear full responsibility." "Mr. HAM, you may be new to the job." "But don't you know college is the most important to seniors?" "I wanted to forgive you, but I can't." "Write a written explanation." "You're under probation." "Be quiet." "Listen." "I got a good and a bad news." "What do you want first?" " A good one!" " No, a bad one!" "I'll tell you the good news first." "We got a message oi thanks from the cultural welfare center." "And they sent us some money as well." "I'll give it to Eun-young and you do whatever you want." "And the bad news is..." "you see..." "Our choir Duresori, we can't perform from now on." "What?" "What do you mean?" "Is the choir disbanded?" "Now you concentrate on studying and special entrance auditions." "Understand?" "That's it for today." " Where are you going?" " Mr. HAM!" " What was that?" " What's happening?" "Duresori is forever gone." "Is that important?" "This is the entrance exam." "Aren't you nervous?" "I've performed so often but still nervous." "I have to do well." "God, so nervous!" "Hey, it's just a special audition." "Even if we fail"" "There's another one." "Let's relax." "Areum, you should pass so that you do your part-time more freely." "Right." "And I shouldn't fail." "Then dad will scold me for damaging grandma's reputation." "We will do well!" "We'll all pass!" "Thank you." "How long have you studied music?" "Since I started to speak, so about fifteen years." "What's your motivation for applying?" "Because this school is recognized for quality." "Would you tell us about your dream in detail?" "First of all, I want to earn money." "A very honest answer." "Ls there a reason?" " Wake up." " What?" "The class finished?" "Looks like." " Where's the others?" " Gone." " Let's go." " In a minute." "Come on." "Gosh, can't feel my arm." "Give me a massage." "  Please." " I'm doing it." "Gently." " Better?" " A bit more." " Better?" "  Yeah." " Hey, you got anything to do?" " No." "What about the work?" "Got a day off." " Let's go have fun." "  What about your lesson?" "I just had the exam I'm taking a day off." "What do you say?" "Got no money." "  We've got that money." " What money?" "Seven, eight, nine, ten!" "Is it okay we spend it?" "Is it?" "What's the problem?" "We're just using our share." "More than our share." "Then we'll put it back later." "Right, Mr. HAM?" "You called me for this, right?" "Am I a porter or what?" "What're you talking about?" "We thought you'd be depressed." "You're under probation because of us." " We're gonna help you feel better." " That's right." "You'll have so much fun." "Do you have a discount card?" "Discount card?" "Sure." "Let's go!" " Mr. HAM!" "  Yes." " All changed?" " Yes." "You think you can hide where you've been?" "  If I hide this." " I'll take it off." "Yeah?" "Let's go!" " Did you have fun?" " Yes!" " You were enjoying it the most." " Exactly." "Screaming like crazy." " You rode the merry-go-round." " Yeah, he did." "Eun-yeong, Why long face?" "I'm hungry!" " Me too!" " Starving!" "The elephant train's here." "One moment!" "I'm full." " Are you, too?" " Yes!" "You were playing a nice piece." "How about playing it again?" " It'll help digestion." " Yeah, she got up!" " Bravo!" " Yeah!" "What's the title?" "I wrote it." "Better than Mr. HAM's." "I think it'd be nice with lyrics." "How about asking them write it for you?" "It's fine with me." "Lyrics?" "You do it." "It will be great." "I'm hooked on this song." "You keep singing it!" "I'm hungry." "My stomach keeps groaning." "Miss, are you pregnant?" "After class, let's go eat something spicy!" " I'd like that." " Something really hot." " Mr. HAM said he'd buy dinner." " That's right!" "I'll call him, you call the girls." " Do it!" " Okay." "Hello?" "L'['S Open!" "Why do you leave the door open?" "Hello!" "Good afternoon." "Look at his T-shirt." "Military Band?" "Why are you here?" "Wanna go somewhere?" "Because we missed you." " You did?" " We are just hungry." "You said you'd buy us dinner." "Can you do it today?" "  I said that?" " Yes, you did." " Alright." "I'd finish something, so wait a minute." " Yes, sir." "What are you doing?" "Working on a piece I wrote a while ago." " A piece?" " Yeah, I got a request." " So you're being paid for it?" " Of course." "Eun-hye, you should sell him one of your pieces!" "Oh, will you?" "What's this?" "It's a nice song." "A song I wrote for choir." "Then it's our song!" "I wanted to practice and do a choir with it." "It would've been nice." "Bon appetit!" "Have a look." "What's this?" "Why did you bring it?" "How about applying?" " Who?" " Duresori." " Who?" " Duresori." "It's just a temporary thing, not a club." "But we had a concert!" "So we ended up like this." "But we all enjoyed it, didn't we?" "You seniors have no time to practice." "You even made a song for us!" "But there's no one to sing it." "I'll get everyone together." "Do you think the principal would allow it?" "We'll keep it secret!" "Why do you keep saying we can't?" "Just say you don't want to." "Don't bring up excuses." "It's not that." "Stop arguing during meal." "Eat first!" "Give it to me." "Mr. HAM, it looks nice." "Can't we do it?" "I think it might be fun." "Look." "See, they all want it." "Let's do it!" "Let me see." "Stop being negative and think about it seriously!" "It would be a voluntary, so what's the worry?" "It's our song, so we should sing it." "And it will be a nice memory from high school." "There's prize money, too!" " How much?" " Two thousand dollars!" "Wow!" " Everyone will do it." " They'll do it!" "Let's practice." "It's delicious." "Come in." " Mr. LEE?" " Mr. HAM, please sit!" "You must be busy with the seniors." "Yes." "It's not easy being the head of the senior year." "Mr. LEE, I have something to ask you." "Go ahead." "Have a look at this." "Seoul Youth Club Contest." "I was thinking oi participating." "What do you say?" "Do we have any club that can participate?" "There's the choir, Duresori." "It's already disbanded." "I think we could regroup." "Mr. HAM, it was the choir that got you a probation." "I know, but-..." "Let's say the principal permits it." "The seniors should prepare for the entrance exam." "And they have extra lessons." "They won't have time." "It won't require much practice as the last time." "We've done it since summer, so they'll learn quickly." " Actually, it's not my idea." " Then whose?" "Yesterday, Areum asked me." " Areum?" "  Yes." "A loud shout for 5 seconds!" "At first, I really hated the choir." "He told us to read music when we can't." "And not to do nong-eum." "Choir singing's not our thing, you know." "But the concert got cancelled and I felt bad about it." "It wasn't for the prize, nor anyone told us to." "I enjoyed it and also got praised." "It was the best memory from high school for me." "If any of you feel the same, let's do it again." "You should sing with others." "No use doing well alone." "You'd listen and adjust your volume." "For now, sopranos, mezzos and altos sing separately." " It's a secret, right?" "  Yes." "When do you get exam results?" "After a week." "From now on, you will help with the anniversary concert." "Huh?" "The concert is approaching, but we don't have enough hands." "And make sure you practice for your performance in it." "But I still got school." "I'm not telling you to skip school." "But come home straight and help me out." "But..." "Why?" "Ls there a problem?" "No, it's not that." "Okay, from tomorrow you'll help me." "Okay." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "What is it then?" "Just, I'm not feeling good." "You?" "Kidding me?" "I feel like I got a fever." "I got a sore throat." "Hey, you can't." "You got a solo part." "I know." "Then stop practicing." "Go home." "Is that okay?" "I'll wait for Eun-young, so you can go." "Thanks." "See you tomorrow." "What are you doing?" "Start from "If you"." "If you will leave me..." "It's nice!" "When do you get the result?" "Not yet." "  Are you confident?" " Of course!" "Don't worry." "D1112." "It'll be good ii you pass." "The fee's cheaper." "I'll pass." "If you fail, don't be discouraged." "Try somewhere else, okay?" "I'm gonna pass and I'll get a scholarship too." "One, two, three, four!" "One, two, three, four!" "Seul-ki, you did really well." "What's the secret?" " Runs in the family." "  In her blood!" "She's pretty too!" "Ask her out!" "You make a nice couple." "Mr. HAM, I'll be out for a moment.." "To where?" "I'll be quick." "Okay." "Seul-ki?" "I'm having an interview for university at school." "You should tell me in advance." "Don't forget again." "By the way, let Mr. LEE know I'll visit him sometime." "Okay, dad." "We'll get the results in a few hours." "Some will pass, some will fail." "Yeah." "We're both going to pass, don't worry!" "Even if we didn't, nothing changes between us!" "I know." "Hey!" "How did it go?" "Why?" "How did it go?" "Well..." "You didn't pass?" "I passed!" "And you?" " You passed, didn't you?" "  Me?" "I knew it!" "How could the "prodigies" like us fail?" "I should call Ha-nui." "Wait a second!" "Ha-nui, how did it go?" "You did?" "Congratulations!" "Of course I passed!" "Hello." "What?" "Are you sick?" "The woman next door called you?" "Don't worry." "You should go to hospital." "No, I'm okay." "Areum." "You got the results?" "Is it important when you're sick?" "College is more important than me being sick." "What's so important?" "I can always sing anywhere!" "What are you talking about?" "Are you out of your mind?" "You got the result, right?" "It's not like you're getting a prize if I go to a college!" "You know what I mean." "I want you to get a good job!" "A folk singer has no decent job." "I'll just earn money anyway." "No one appreciates it." "Don't you really know why I'm saying this?" "What will you do with that attitude?" "Didn't you know how I am?" "You better leave me alone!" "I don't dream in vain." "JO Areum!" "Where are you going?" "Would you read for us?" "You have gone." "Ah, whom I love has gone." "That's right." "You have gone." "The one he loves has gone." "Areum isn't here either." "Where is she?" "She wasn't in the class either." "Perhaps she's absent." "I'll call her again." " She won't answer." " No, she won't." " Still no answer." " Leave a voice mail." "JO Areum." "What the hell?" "You call me right away." "Let's begin." "Eun-hye, piano." "We'll continue what we were doing." " You got the college results?" " Yes, sir." "Those who have passed, congratulations." "If you failed, don't be depressed." "You got more entrance exams." " So cheer up!" " Yes, sir." "As Areum has come now, we'll start with her solo." "Come forward, Areum." "Give us the alto's first note." "Mezzos' first note!" "Sopranos' first note!" "From Areum's solo, three, four!" "Stop!" "Areum, is there a problem?" "Why don't you have any energy?" "I don't feel good." "Ii you're sick, you can go home." "I'm okay." " Shall we take a break?" "  Yes." " It's been a while." " Hello, sir!" "Have you been well?" "Take a seat, please." " How are you?" " Very good." "So, what brought you here?" "Thanks to you, Seul-ki passed her entrance exam." "She is so talented, that's why." "Not at all." "Thank you for the efforts." "Why are you ignoring my messages?" "Don't have my phone, see." "Then why did you avoid?" "I didn't." "YOU did." "Didn't even look at me!" "I was sorry for being late to Mr. HAM." "Okay, whatever." "Why didn't you come yesterday?" "I called you forever." "Sorry." "You don't sound sorry." "How do I sound?" "Like you're not sorry!" "Cut it out." "I'm not in the mood for this shit." "What was that?" "Are you nuts?" "You're lucky it didn't hit your face!" "Are you threatening me?" "You got a noble, rich family and you're lucky." "I don't have any of that, and I tailed the exam." "Why should I care about you?" "Think with your thick skull." "Bitch, you said you passed!" "When did I say that?" "You just wanted to think so." "You never speak properly, so I had to guess it." "Is your mouth just for decoration?" "Is your skull just for show then?" "You don't know by seeing?" "I'm bloody sorry that I'm stupid." "Happy?" "You don't sound so sorry either!" "Fuck off." "You just don't get it." "I had to run around crazy to do the choir with you." "I've been lying to my dad for every rehearsal and..." "What's the use." "You are a bitch." "Yeah, that's right." "The exam result and my sick aunt made me forget about the choir." "I'm fucking sorry I made you to tell lies!" "Happy?" "You call this a friendship?" "You only think about money, so shit off to work!" "KIM Seul-ki!" "I'll keep this short." "You're not drunk yet, are you?" "Not at all." "Let's go to another place!" "I just don't get it." "Teenagers should have dreams and have fun." "But that's not possible." "I just can't understand." "I thought an art school would be different." "But it's the repetition of exams, practicing, and private lessons." "It's not different." "Even worse!" "Do you know why I came to this school?" "No, I don't." "You didn't even major traditional music." "Yeah, I studied classical music." "You know?" "Everyone doing classical music studies abroad." "So I saved money and went to study in Europe." "I lived in a dorm and my roommate was Andrew." "One day, he asked me." ""'Why aren't you doing Korean music?"" "I was totally at a loss at his question." "I'm a Korean, but I don't know Korean music." "So I thought, I have to learn Korean music here." "I think I could learn from my students, but." "It's over." "Did you all hear the news?" "What's that all about?" " Mr. HAM is fired." "  Fired?" "I was afraid it'd happen." " So what are we going to do?" " Let's do something." "There's nothing we can do." "The contest is so near." "We've got to give up." "And we don't have Seul-ki and Areum." "We wouldn't be like this if they didn't fight." "We've practiced so hard." "I don't want to give up." "You think we'd do it?" "We just need Mr. HAM for practice." "And get Areum and Seul-ki later." "So you'll do it ii we have Mr. HAM?" "Who is it?" "Hello, Mr. HAM!" "So why are you here?" "You don't come to school, so we came to you." "What a surprise." " So, let's practice." " What practice?" "The contest is next week." "We will do it!" "We need you for practicing." "I'm just an accompanist." "You need an official teacher." "I'm not a teacher now." "It's better that you're fired." "Nothing to worry about." "Now you are the leader of Duresori." "It's a club contest, not a school contest." "We don't have time." "Let's start." "I got the score." "Oh my..." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "This is the solo part for Areum and Seul-ki." "Aren't they here?" "I couldn't reach them." "Really?" "I'll call and visit them." "Okay then." "Look at the score." "Let's skip from page 4 to page 5, okay?" "Yes, sir." "See that rascal Nolbo, holding a club..." " Do it faster." " Okay." "Maybe Areum and Seul-ki really aren't coming back." "It's too much of a blow without them." "Thought they'd have come back by now." "I know, they've ignored all our calls." "We need a good idea." "We have to change their minds." "So here we are!" "Let's go!" "Areum and Seul-ki aren't here yet?" "Not yet." "But, I've got an idea." "Come in." "Principal, take a look." "What's this?" "Where are you?" "Come quick!" "Rehearsal starts in any minute." "And Duresori from National School of Traditional Arts, are you ready?" "Yes!" "Rehearsal in 20 minutes." "Let's start." "Seul-ki!" "Areum!" " Why are you here?" " Come here." " I'm working." " Hurry." "We're here for you." " Seul-ki!" " What is it?" "Come here." "I should be back." "I know." "Just for a second." "Mr. HAM!" "Good afternoon." " What's all this?" " What do you mean?" "I mean why the students are doing the contest?" "They wanted to." "But they're seniors." "You had to stop them." "Sorry, but I'm not a teacher anymore." "Forget it." "No time for this." " Let's find the kids." " Yes, sir." "They're not here." "Sharing joy and tears, we are good friends." "Sometimes we fight, still we are good friends." "Singing and performing, we are happy together." "Sometimes we are lonely, still we are happy together." "Mr. LEE?" "What are you doing here?" "Principal, what brought you here?" " So you knew all about this?" "  Well that's..." "What's all this?" "Sir, the students have worked day and night for this contest." "Same for Mr. HAM." "They've practiced very hard just because they wanted to." "How about putting some trust in them?" "Please welcome Samul-nori band from Saebyeol High School." "Are we in time?" "You're not." "You missed the rehearsal." "Sorry!" " Let's go!" " Let's go!" "Did the man die?" "No, he wasn't at home." "I always called you first." "This time, you could have called me." "I will, next time." " And fight again?" " No, silly." "Aunt, it's me." "Yeah, I had lunch." "Just want to say I'm sorry." "How're you feeling now?" "I'll work hard for the college exam." "Our turn is coming." "You feeling good?" "Yes, sir!" " How about a hurrah?" "  Yeah!" "After three!" " Two, three!" " Go, Duresori!" "Areum and Seul-ki!" "No fighting up there." "I'm sorry to say it now," "I think Eun-young should conduct." "  Me?" " Yes." " Okay?" " Yes, sir." "You'll do great." "Let's go!" "Like a light shines darkness, singing lightens our hearts." "We laugh, cry and dream together." "When we feel worn out singing the same song" "we laugh and stand together." "We sing our dreams." "Our unwanted first encounter." "We had a hard time with our problems." "Each with their dream, no one listened to." "Our first harmony, the first thrill." "The nice harmony of our voices." "Bring forth my lost dreams." "Our pain and wounds." "The dream heals everything." "Now I know." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "It can be hard." "It can be painful." "But we should walk on this path." "Our melody and rhythms soothe the pain of people around the world." "And bring forth our lost dreams." "Our melody and rhythms soothe the pain of people around the world." "And bring forth our lost dreams."
