This concerns the fate of this city. No blunder is allowed.
Can we really like all go?
You can hold an instrument, right? Your hands are fine, right?
You can make a sound, right? So just do it, OK?
I don't like classical music.
And I don't even like the people that do Classical music.
I came after seeing the flyers.
Are the Cello positions all filled?
My name's Kim Gab Yong. Nice to meet you.
Why? Why aren't they coming?
You said you were missing spots.
Should I leave?
Ah wait.
He usually works overseas.
Mr. Kang Gun Woo?
Maestro Kang?
You don't look any older.
Even though it's been 10 years.
Why are we practicing in the middle of night?
It's Project Orchestra, right?
Everyone works during daytime, so?/i>
I'm leaving tomorrow. Reserve a plane ticket for me.
You look really distasteful, you know?
What I consider the most distasteful in the world is to conduct a piece of trash like you.
Our true conductor is Gun Woo.
I can't read music sheets.
It's too complicated and everything so?/i>
It's just faster to listen and memorize everything.
Teacher, he's a genius.
Nobody can ever memorize the full score, unless you use a computer.
You and grandpa, remember this.
I'll make your concert an unforgettable memory for life.
Is the orchestra fake?
These people here- they're my orchestra concertmaster and my players.
I won't stand around and tolerate your blatant disregard for them!
Are you that confident? Are you going to take responsibility?
Because we don't have time, we can't practice only on nighttimes anymore.
From now on, from daylight to dusk, we're going to practice all day.
So, what are you going to do now?
You're not going to show up at the concert?
No way. I will never allow it.
Episode 5
Solo - that guy's going to do it.
I'm sorry.
I met with the police station chief and he said, "No way. "
The concert... I think I have to skip out on it.
The concert repertory will go as planned.
If we ruin the concert, it'll be because of you.
You'll be ruining the efforts of all these people here who practiced,
For 2 months without eating or sleeping.
I'll see you on the concert day. I'll be waiting.
Let's start.
I bought too many.
You really don't want to eat it?
Don't worry too much.
There are already 5 applicants for the Trumpet position.
I think with posters up and the publicity going, people think we really have something big going on.
We're going to pick based on the audition results.
So, you're not going to learn how to conduct then?
You stopped having an interest in it?
No, I don't mean do something right away for the concert.
But, are you never going to do it? You were really interested before.
It's a tad fishy.
You're supposed to sprinkle some soju on it.
I think they just cooked it plain.
You refused to eat it, but look at your gluttonous look now. It tastes just fine.
I sold these a couple years ago.
Though, I had to quit right away.
After graduating high school and going to the army, there wasn't much for me to do.
Back then, while doing a bit of this and that, I thought, "I'm ready for anything, world. "
But the thing about money?
I guess I didn't grow up at all.
Even after all the trouble to be a policeman, I caused trouble and got probation.
While waiting for the police chief, that's all I thought about.
Let's never do this again.
Concert?
I have no use for it.
Let's just live ordinarily.
Conducting?
Conducting's great.
Just thinking about it makes my heart beat.
But there's the right time for everything.
There are people who studied overseas, received their degrees, and are settled down.
Who will take someone like me who didn't even go to a music school...
But it's worth trying.
My dreams aren't that big.
I just want to live, later, with my wife and kids,
In a 20-something pyong* apartment, live happily together. (*80 sq yd)
I think that's about the greatest dream for me.
You think it sounds easy?
Not for me.
Even that seems too big for me.
Why are you tormenting yourself?
Ah...I really didn't want to talk like this, at least to you.
I'm just being honest.
Because I think I should.
Go home.
Yes, it's a trumpet.
I'm sorry but I'm in a hurry and you just need to play a few pieces...
Sunbae, your vacation ends today, right? You worked really hard.
Starting tomorrow, just come in during nighttimes and practice a lot, ok?
My company's moving the day after tomorrow.
Really? You'll be busy then. Ah yes?
Yes, thank you very much. Bye.
Ah...my head hurts.
Sunbae, do you have any aspirin?
- Everyone, we have a 1 hour early practice tomorrow. - The day after tomorrow?
- Please, come early. - The day of the concert?
- Ok. - Yea.
So, then?
I can't do it, the concert.
Look for another double bass player.
I mean, we only have two days till the concert. How are we supposed to find another player then?
It's nothing else but only moving, right?
- Can't you have the movers do the moving? - Do the movers only have one or two clients?
You never worked at a company before?
Don't you know the reduce-the-fees and we-do-everything-by-ourselves mentality?
- I know but it's only moving and? - Hey, I'm only a petty staff member.
The type of worker that whips the lower workers to work while only saying, "Yes," "Yes,"
To the upper executives and pretending to at least move a desk around.
I don't have any say in this.
This is the conclusion I've reached after thinking the whole day.
So, don't even try to persuade me.
I won't change my mind.
Drink.
I'm doing this because I'm sorry that I've been criticizing everything about you.
Aren't we comrades now? The dropouts.
It's alright.
Bastard, being all nervous.
There's nothing to be scared of, kid.
I mean, did we betray our country or sell over a patriot?
Didn't you say you weren't going to be a part of the orchestra in the beginning?
I was like that too.
And then, they looked so pitiful so I helped.
I only looked after them cause they're just bunch of kids. Right?
I mean, looking at things objectively, you have a kid and a job,
But you're tossing them aside and playing at a concert?
Someone like that is a crazy bastard.
Talent? Dreams?
Are you a teenager? Huh?
These days even the high school students are going to colleges purely based on the grades.
Those bastards are the ones who turn out to live better lives.
Where the hell's your talent?
Where the hell's your dreams?
It's hard just to earn your food and live.
Should I order one more bottle?
No, no need.
I need to go to work tomorrow.
If I drink a lot, I won't have the energy to work tomorrow.
Ah...I have to be all drunk, but I'm not even getting drunk.
It's my first time seeing a police uniform.
Ah bastard, you look great!
It's your first day of work.
Do your best.
What about the trumpet? Did you find a player?
Yea.
His skills are crazy good. He's a lot better than you.
Hey, you're wearing mismatched shoes.
Ah, I have to go the dry cleaner's right now, so I'm all over the place.
Once I woke up today, I feel all nervous.
Well, I'll be going then.
Did you really find a player for the trumpet part?
Mr. Bae Yong Gi's skills really improved and we can just take out the trumpet solo.
But, besides that, I'm more worried about you.
Are you sure you won't regret it?
Starting from today, we're on emergency. I'll be busy.
Don't put in the soup, it'll spill.
Don't put in the soup, here.
Here, let's drink the soup. Drink slowly.
Here's paprika.
Are you going to work like that? You're not going to wear a suit?
I told you we're moving. There's no need to have it all covered with dust.
By the way, Oppa, while you're on the way to work, can you stop by the dry cleaners?
I have to go to the gynecologist today and will be busy today.
Did you drop something off at the dry cleaners?
Oppa, your concert tux.
For mending.
It's inside the closet.
What are you talking about? That one seemed old so I bought a new one.
I told you I wasn't going to play at the concert!
Well, even if not today, you could be wearing it some other?
There's no other one.
The performance fee was stolen, I won't receive a single cent,
And received all the insults I could, so you're telling me to do something like that again?
This upcoming concert... Why are you getting all worked up?
You're the one that's being emotionally insensitive when I'm so stressed out right now.
What do you want me to do?
- No...I just saw this tuxedo and... - I don't want it.
The club, the concert, and the double bass, I'm going to quit them all.
I don't care if you sell it or throw the double bass away, so do whatever you want with it.
Bora, don't cry, don't cry.
It's alright.
Your dad's not angry. It's alright.
Your dad's not angry. It's alright. It's alright.
- I hate...daddy. - That's right. That's right.
- That's right. Bad daddy.
She went where?
You're talking about Jin Soo's mom, right?
I saw her sometime today in front of the city hall.
I heard there's a concert today and all the people are going there.
Oh my god,
- What are all the kids doing here? - The Mayor thought...
"Ah, this is a lost cause," and made a large reduction in the publicity fees.
So, because of that, the tickets didn't sell.
So, we had no choice but to fill up all the empty seats by sending,
- The tickets around to schools. - There are junior high school students,
And high school students, so why these little kids?
The Mayor said something like, "An elementary school and a half's guaranteed for spots."
Everyone, everyone! Stop, stop! Hold on a sec.
Stop, stop! Everyone, everyone!
I'm going to ask you something.
OK, so what is this place?
- Arts Center! - Good job, good job.
You guests are the king here! The best!
OK, so then today is the City of Seokran's Day of Music.
What did they say we were going to do today?
(*Country of Classic - it's the concert theme for the little kids)
Classic Nara*!
Out of all the people who play classical music, who can you name?
So...
- Beethoven! - Good job. That's fantastic!
You're the king! The best! So...
Mozart!
- Mozart! - Mozart...good job!
You guys are all so smart.
So, I'm going to ask you guys something.
Can you clap in the middle of the performance or not?
- No, you can't. - Good job.
So, can you talk loudly during the performance or not?
No, you can't.
That's great, Ahjussi. In this way, indoctrinate in them the etiquette.
It's not indoctrinating, it's the guests-are-the-king-the-best mentality.
So, what happened to Maestro Kang? Why isn't he here yet?
Your form looks great.
Are you incorporating the baton technique that I taught you here?
To tell you, for the idiot who can't even keep track of the concert date,
The concert starts at 6 o'clock and your solo's the first song in the second act.
Are you happy?
Are you happy to squirm and struggle in the heat,
Directing traffic in place of a faulty traffic light and breathing in all the exhaust?
Ah, of course, I accept it. There are many different types of people.
The people who think money's the best in the world.
The people who are ok with eating rice with just a piece of kimchi.
The people who save up all their money to send to the destitute in Ethiopia,
So that they can sleep with a peace of mind. They are all different.
There's no right or wrong. Just living by your values.
So you, Kang Gun Woo, by your values at this moment, are you happy?
Let me ask you one thing.
What about you wanting to learn how to conduct?
- I wanted to learn. - So, then?
I'm just going to leave it as a dream.
A dream? How is that your dream? It's immovable.
That's a star, on the sky, something that you can't have,
Something that you can't even strive for, something you can only stare at - a star.
Look who's talking about some ridiculous and absurd story about stars now.
You need to do something.
You need to, even for a little, struggle, try hard, or at the very least,
Make plans to make a change... a change as small as your smell or color.
By all doing that, you can call it your "dream. "
Do you think it's your "dream" if you just used the word to describe any idea?
If it was that easy then why don't you make being a doctor, professor,
Lawyer, and prosecutor-everything- your dream? Why not?
I'm not telling you to achieve your dreams.
I'm telling you to at least dream the dream by trying.
Actually, all this talk is useless. What should I have to care about?
The one who's going to regret it the rest of their lives is you.
'I'm nothing more than this. '
'I don't have any dreams. ' 'I couldn't even dream anything. '
'I've been eaten up by life. '
Live the rest of your life while tormenting yourself.
By the time you die, maybe you'll die with your last word being "Conducting?" and a scream.
Welcome.
Mr. Jung Myung Hwan. Thanks for coming.
How the hell are you directing the traffic here?! Huh?!
I'm so sorry.
You almost caused an accident here!
3 minutes left. Everyone get ready.
Why are you taking so much aspirin?
You're going to overdose yourself.
I was busy lately, so. I'll be fine.
One person's missing. Raise your hand if you know who it is.
Ah, where's Ahjumma? Where's Hee Yun ahjumma?
What's up with this ahjumma? Not showing up as an artist.
- Ms. Hee Yun? - Move, move.
Ms. Jung Hee Yun?
Pretty Hee Yun.
Let's not be nervous.
Just do what you normally do.
Oh my god, oh my god. Look at the time!
Oh my god, what do I do?
What do I do? What do I do?
Crazy. Crazy.
Crazy. What do I do? The concert!
You just realized that you're crazy?
Concert?
You pushed your husband and kids aside and all you're thinking about is the concert?
- Come over here. - Honey, I have to go...
Oh my god, my cello!
- My cello! - What are you doing?
What are you doing? Who the heck are you?
- Move aside! - You're shoving me now?
You can't do this! Let go of her!
Are you exercising violence now?
If you're doing that, I can't just stand by and just watch!
You can't just run away like this!
What do I do about this?
Concert! Cello!
Emergency!
What do we do?
There's an emergency!
Hee Yun Ahjumma got dragged away by some ahjussi.
And cello was rolling all over the ground.
Speak clearly.
I brought the cello over but I couldn't bring Ahjumma with me!
Come inside.
What do we do, Concertmaster?
First, let's go in for now.
Go in, go in. Go in for now. Go in.
With whom?
With some ahjussi.
I only brought the cello. What do I do?
Go in? What do we do?
What is this?
What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?
No, I'm okay.
You're feeling okay?
Let's go in. It's starting, ok?
Ah, it's not that the tickets didn't sell,
But for the future of Korean music, we intentionally invited a lot of children.
What's wrong? What's wrong?
I can't...hear out of my ear.
Hey, Gamecock.
Where are you looking at? Look at me.
Just follow my lead and then you'll be fine.
More softly. Slow.
Softer...like the feeling you're hearing something far, far away.
Yes, like that.
You're doing well, Gamecock.
Ah ah. Mike test.
Gamecock. Stray dog. Babo. Idiot.
I can...hear now.
Where's Gun Woo? Still didn't receive any call from him?
Yea?
That idiot! Even after I talked to him?
Gun Woo's the solo for the first song in the second act, so what do we do?
Was the sound bad?
In my opinion, it sounded fine.
In fact, I think it was the violin section that didn't sound so well.
My husband and the kids do whatever they want in life,
So why do I have to hold everything in? Why?!
I held everything in for years!
At the rate this is going, I won't be playing in an orchestra at all in my life! Only me!
Why do I have to be the only one that holds everything in?
Why? Why?
Phone.
Ah, calling Gun Woo?
Do you want me to punch in his number?
- Honey. - Be quiet!
You're just going to talk about the concert and crap if you opened your mouth.
Let's go for now. Let's go home and then talk.
Ah, Ms. Ru Mi, right now I'm?
Ms. Jung Hee Yun.
I heard you were taken away by your husband.
Where are you now?
Ah, yes...that...we just passed by Dong Shin Street's 4-way intersection.
It's close to here.
Ms. Hee Yun, you're doing the solo. Get over here quickly.
What?
Come play the solo here.
I'll let you vent out your frustration.
It's a pretty name - Jung Hee Yun.
Who was it?
Are you really cheating on me?
- Who the hell was it?! - Honey! There's a person in front of us!
Ahjussi!
It's all because you kept talking some worthless crap.
Hey!
Hey! Stop right there!
The songs got switched around.
It seems like the solo got pushed to the back and they're playing the later songs right now.
What's going on?
Ah, really?
But, it doesn't matter if a song's being played towards the front or back of the program, right?
It does matter.
I think there's a problem with the soloist.
He said, "It does matter."
What the...why is it a different song? They're not playing the solo?
Section Chief, we're leaving.
If Gun Woo didn't come, they should have found a substitution earlier or something.
Look at these incompetent people here.
Have him watch it the whole night.
Hello.
- Hey, Section Chief Park. - Yes?
Daddy.
- What is this? - Let's go.
Let's go and watch the concert.
I should have the tickets that Ru Mi sent us.
Do you know what time the concert started? So what's the point in going?
If we go now, we should be able to hear at least one song.
Let's go.
- And go where, dressed like this? - So, who cares?
Who's going to complain?
My husband was, till yesterday, Double Bass First Chair. Let's go.
Let's go watch the concert with daddy, Bora.
What's wrong with you? I told you I'm not going.
Why are you playing with someone else's possession?
It's mine! It's mine!
You have kids crying and the program order's all over the place; the concert's really dynamic, isn't it?
Ahjumma said she's almost here. If you can buy us some time...
"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"?
Everyone, what's the name of this song?
It's "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"!
Yes, people call it by that name too,
But it's a variation on a classical piece originally called "Ah, vous dirai-je, Maman."
Mozart composed it. It's a very beautiful melody, isn't it?
Yea!
What is this place that you guys are at called?
- Theatre! - Opera House!
- Art Center! - No.
This place is Classic Nara (Note: Country of Classical Music).
- Where? - Classic Nara!
No, this place is the Art Center.
If you don't listen to grown-ups, you go to hell later.
You're going to burn to death inside the hot flames.
How about you kid, over there, answer my question.
Where is this place?
- Classic Nara! - That's right.
If you talk in the Classic Nara, fairies die one by one.
- You know Peter Pan, right? - Yea!
It's similar to that.
- Do you want the fairies to die or not die? - I don't want them to die!
What's Classic Nara?
Ahjussi, ahjussi! Please, open the door for me!
What?
- I'm a Cellist here at the concert? - The concert right now?
Yes, yes.
The Cellist is going in right now.
Thank you.
Have you seen how after the music ends, you say "Bravo!" and clap your hands?
Yea!
But the term "Bravo" is used when a single male player performs on stage.
We have here both male and female players in plural amount so instead of cheering "Bravo," cheer "Bravi!"
- What should you do? - Bravi!
That's great.
The traditions of Classic Nara are quite complicated.
That's dirty water. It was inside my mouth. That?
Usually, after the music ends you need to clap, as loud as you can.
Okay!
But today, clap as you feel like clapping.
If you want to clap, clap, and if you don't want to clap, then you don't have to clap.
- Okay? - Okay!
Oh my god, that Ahjumma's the solo?
What, why?
- She really sucks at playing. - That Ahjumma's the solo?
They've all lost their minds for real.
Oh my god.
Why don't you say something? Say something! Why can't you say anything?
You said you wanted to be called Jung Hee Yun, right?
Do you know what that name means? It means you take responsibility on your name's honor.
- Ahjumma, are you being responsible? - I'm Jung Hee Yun!
Why am I a piece of shit?!
What are you doing here? We found a trumpet for you.
Hurry and change. Hurry, hurry!
You came over here fast.
I'm sorry I'm late.
What are you doing here instead of going in there?
Do you want to go in there behind the conductor?
Good job, good job.
Here's the last piece.
This piece, called "William Tell Overture," is an Opera overture piece that illustrates the farmer's rebellion,
Against the rule of the Austrians in the 14th century when Austria was ruling over Switzerland.
Our concert's similar in that aspect.
The people who don't have anything will show their own rebellion with a "We can do it, too. "
I know you can do that and more. I believe in you guys.
It is time.
It's now.
Here.
Where we made mistakes everyday.
Rest for a beat.
Everyone, together with spirit now!
It's here.
Right...
Now!
Mayor, Mayor, what did I tell you before?
I told you it was going to all work out.
You should have trusted my word.
That was the best! The best!
Dad, this is Yong Gi ahjussi.
- Father, nice to meet you. - Mom, this is Yong Gi ahjussi.
Mother, I'll take responsibility for Joo Hee.
Take care of Joo Yeon too.
Joo Yeon, too? I'll do my best, Mother-in-law.
Mother-in-law? Who's your mother-in-law?
- You're really crazy! - Ah, I'm sorry, sorry.
- Hey, Yong Bae! - Hyung-nim!
Hey, Man Gu!
- How was I today? - You were the best!
- Should I play one more time? - Yes.
One-two-three!
Did you see my police uniform anywhere?
I didn't see it, didn't see it.
It's in the number 7 cabinet. Number 7 cabinet.
I'll return shortly.
When I blew it like this, the crowd started to clap!
Hey, hey, you two take the picture together.
You two together.
Hey, the background's not that great.
Come over here, over here.
Yong Gi, go stand aside over there.
If I were to stand between the both of you, I will spoil the picture.
Just take it, just take it.
One-two-three!
So did you finish your work and then came here?
I'm unemployed now.
So you take responsibility for me.
Look at the camera.
So, standing here like this, don't we look like a married couple?
You?
Was it hard to run the show over there while I was gone?
- Don't you think you were too much? - Is that so?
You should know that.
Help me apologize to the President and say I'll be back soon.
Hon...honey.
You didn't eat yet, right?
I'll go home right away and make dinner.
So, wait for a sec. While I get my cello.
Hey.
Set the table.
Set the table and Min Ji's lunch, preparatory classes,
Jin Soo's college admissions preparations, cleaning, and laundry, do all that on your own.
I'm not going to help you on anything, at all.
But even after all that, you have some time left over, I guess you can play cello.
If you're confident enough to.
So then, why didn't you say anything?
You made me the crazy and the weird person.
(*Koreans call their spouse as their child's mom or dad; in this case, Jin Soo's dad)
Jin Soo's dad*!
Let's... let's take a picture... together and then leave.
What's wrong with you, woman?
But, for the memory-sake and everything, we have to take a picture before we leave.
Look over here.
One-two-three.
What is this?
You need to smile. What's wrong with you, honey.
Again.
One-two-three- smile!
Hey, I heard over there's the locker room!
- I want to get an autograph! - I said, let's go to the locker room.
You practiced with them till 2 days before the concert,
So you're practically considered the part of the orchestra. Why not?
Let's go together, say our greetings, and take pictures together.
I said it's ok. I'm not going.
Why didn't daddy play in the concert?
Daddy's company had a moving day.
Then, why didn't you work hard at the company moving day?
Because of the concert. I was worried.
Then, why didn't you play in the concert?
Because of the moving.
Then, why didn't you work hard at the company moving day?
Stop, Bora.
Because of the concert.
Then, why didn't you play in the concert?
Hey, Gamecock.
Where are you looking at? Look at me.
Just follow my lead and then you'll be fine.
Yes, like that.
You're doing well, Gamecock. Good.
Where's my sheet music?
Ah, over there.
Never mind. Just send them to Vienna.
They are just added weight to the luggage when I leave.
Are you leaving...right away?
Right after I load all the luggage on the car.
You don't need to come out to send me off. I called for a car.
You worked hard during the project.
Can't you leave after...staying for a bit more?
Hey Gun Woo, did you see Maestro Kang?
- No. Did you see Ru Mi? - No, I didn't.
Anyways, if you see him, bring him over to the VIP waiting lobby, ok?
There's big news! Big news!
Hurry! Hurry and bring him over!
Why?
Why should I leave after staying a bit longer?
Well, I mean since you came to Korea after so long, you can sightsee, see your family and?
I don't need to go sightseeing and I already called my family.
Can I leave?
No.
Give me 12 reasons why I shouldn't leave.
I want to...get to know you, Teacher.
What about the second reason?
I want to get to know...you, the teacher.
Don't you have something more original?
The third reason is?
I want to get to know you, Teacher.
Um, Teacher, Chief Clerk Kim told me to take you over to the VIP waiting lobby.
Aren't you close with her?
That girl said three times that she wanted to get to know me. What is she talking about?
What were you talking about?
That's?
Let's go! To the after-party.
I bet the people already left to go there.
Welcome! Teacher.
First, sit over here.
This seat has the best view in the VIP waiting lobby.
It should be very comfortable.
The most comfortable place is the bed.
First, say what you need to say.
If you had any common sense, you should know that one gets very tired after a performance.
For you it was tiring, but for me, it was inspiring.
For the past 50 years of my life, this was probably the first inspiring?
Getting inspired at my concert is a sure thing.
So?
It wasn't just me.
Members of the city council. The sponsors.
Everyone's talking about the concert.
I'm really sorry for not having recognized such a great teacher.
Here, please take my apologies.
The main point. Are you still far from talking about it?
It's the main point, right now.
Therefore I gathered the members of the city council and the sponsors to discuss this matter.
We were thinking of making a Seokran's City Symphonic Orchestra.
What's your opinion on it?
- City Symphony Orchestra? - Yes.
From hearing what the city officials and Mayor were talking about, it seems almost certain.
I mean, how?
All of sudden...Why? Did the Mayor lose his mind?
- So, are we getting all promoted? - Who did they say would be the conductor?
- Is it Maestro Kang? - Do the City Symphonic Orchestra players get paid?
How much are they going to pay?
Are we all public officials now?
Wait, wait.
Right now, that's not the important thing.
For the moment, nothing's certain or finalized.
But, just a moment ago, you said everything was certain!
No, it's certain by 99%...
But that 1%...
It all depends on the conductor.
So then, I have to be the conductor?
That's right.
I'm not going to do it.
Please, consider it.
Who can take players like those and give out such a wonderful performance?
It's all thanks to you, Teacher.
If you don't take the job, then I won't make the City Symphonic Orchestra.
- I can't do it. - Don't do it, then.
Why is an artist like yourself using such an aggressive two-way decision making method?
Don't just think yes or no but...
Please, go on and take the call. [Gamecock]
After 6 months, I have a contract with Norway's Trondheim Symphonic Orchestra for 2 concerts.
And after that, I planned to rest for recuperative purposes.
But about that we can schedule...
Also, today's concert makes me feel like I've worked non-stop for the past 10 years... very tiring.
I won't do it.
But still, if you can think innovatively?
Ah, my apologies.
Ah, Chief Clerk Kim, did you gather them up all over there?
Ok, I'll go. Hang up.
Teacher...
I'm sorry. Something came up so.
Don't leave.
You can't leave, absolutely not.
I'll be back.
Bye.
Sit down for a sec.
The terms look great.
Do you think I'm like you? Working based on the terms?
Right after one performance and presto! Is the City Symphonic Orchestra? someone’s dog's name?
It really seems like presto!
The city officials...even when everyone was talking about the Day of Music they didn't give a crap.
But, right after seeing your concert, everyone seems to be talking about it.
I think the city officials were the ones who brought up the topic of making the City Symphonic Orchestra.
Just make one then, without me.
It means having an orchestra of your own.
Of course, your skills are amazing.
I know that orchestras all over the place line up to have you as their conductor, but...
Half a year with this orchestra, a year with the other orchestra?
Aren't you sick and tired of hopping from orchestra to orchestra?
Be like Herbert von Karajan.
Like Karajan who contracted with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra for life,
And died after having been influential his entire life, you too?
Is this place Berlin? Even if the caliber's different, the gap's way too?
You can make the City Symphonic Orchestra at that level, then.
From what I see, I think your terms are better than Karajan's terms.
Karajan himself requested for the life contract, but here they're giving it to you.
You won't get bothered, touched,
And they said they'll support you for whatever you want to do.
An orchestra where your minds can be read by each other.
Don't you need something like that?
With players who you've personally picked out to your liking.
Whom you've trained with your own personal conducting style.
An orchestra that you're going to work with the rest of your life, like a married couple.
How wonderful.
It's your lifelong dream.
If it's that great, why are you telling me to do it?
If I didn't have other contracts, I would have said okay right away.
Should we switch?
I take over this job and you take over my 10-year contracts?
Yea?
Well, he'll probably do it.
He's going to do it.
I hope he does it.
It's time he came here.
The seafood won't taste as good if its not hot.
Just hold on a minute. Wait a bit.
Anyway, did Gun Woo go somewhere?
Ah, to the police station.
To apologize for having left like that and also to officially hand over his letter of resignation.
What are we going to do about him?
He was so happy that he was going to get promoted next year.
But even so, if the City Symphonic Orchestra gets created and he becomes part of it,
That's a full-round recovery from unemployment, isn't it?
The practice room for the City Symphonic Orchestra will be in some place like the Art Center, right?
The Mayor and everyone said they'll probably make a practice room for us.
Is the pay good? Are there designated work hours?
Is there a minimum requirement for education? Can high school drop-outs join?
Do they pick based on your appearances? Even though I feel confident to get in?
(note: 1,300,000 won should be about $1,120 per month based on the current currency conversion rates)
Well... the starting pay should be from 130?
That's less than even the cabaret bar pay.
You have a lot of money.
Programs like the Seoul City Symphonic Orchestra pay you well,
But the program here is just getting started so the pay won't be as good.
But the bonus and performance fees should add up to about 200.
And, you get lesson offers.
Also, what's important is since you're a public worker, you get governmental benefits.
The job that my father wanted me to have the most - a government worker.
Our Concertmaster Du gets hired again as soon as she got fired.
But, do you think the City Symphonic Orchestra will be created that easily?
It's all based on Maestro Kang...
And considering how the Teacher's really busy and all, I'm honestly skeptical about the whole thing.
Oh, Teacher.
Am I the likes of Karajan or something?
Please, sit down everyone.
To straightforwardly ask you, what happened to the City Symphonic Orchestra?
You guys worked really hard for today's concert.
You guys performed better than I expected.
And that's why they are going to be making the City Symphonic Orchestra.
I decided to take the job.
Go Maestro Kang!
Completely inspirational!
You're really amazing. And thank you.
It's great that you all are so happy about the City Symphonic Orchestra news.
Thank you.
I'm really thankful for the singular passion and the heart you all have for music.
If you can give me as much support as the cheering you gave today,
I believe my orchestra will become the best City Symphonic Orchestra there is.
I hope you can continue to support my orchestra as the citizens of Seokran,
As the lovers of the classical music, and come to my concerts.
Um, Teacher.
Why is the nuance of your words making me feel like a third person?
So then, we're the players... so go watch what?
The new orchestra will be formed with the best musicians from within and out of the country.
Thank you for all your hard work.
I'll meet you all in the audience from now on.
Ah, Teacher?!

It's the incompetent people that you're talking about who made the concert a success.
You people are incompetent.
Why should a deaf person pursue music?
What did you say? Why are you going deaf?
I need to undergo surgery, but I'll still go deaf.
Are you really quitting?
To do what?
I want to play in the orchestra, why?!
Audition?
It's not a direct admittance.
I'm merely feeding you a single sweet treat so enjoy eating it.
Classical is a square, what is your take?
Happiness in an orchestra is because everyone is playing together.
Oh oh, Park Hyuk Kwon, you...
I let it go since you all had an inferiority complex after getting the boot in the last performance.
What did you say? Inferiority complex?!
Inside here. Your passion. How fiery is it?
You simply lack that.
If there's a need, I'll show it to you.
According to Teacher's style.
