CASTAWAY DIVA
The present you must beat the past you,
and then, you'll enjoy another heyday.
Heyday Again is live.
Who is our contender this week?
She's Korea's top diva.
It's the star of the millennium, Yoon Ran-joo!
To be honest, I'm not confident.
Back then…
I was so incredible.
She'll face the Ran-joo who everyone loved from her incredible heyday.
The 28-year-old Ran-joo from 2008.
Against her dazzling 28-year-old self, will the 42-year-old Ran-joo
come out victorious?
Watch the live broadcast on April 1.
Find out for yourself on Heyday Again.
Will this interview be aired during the live broadcast?
Yes, it'll last about three to four minutes.
The color of these Shine Muscats is the same as the one symbolizing Ran-joo.
Lemon green. Keep that in mind.
-Lemon green? -Yes.
This is delicious.
Right?
Please take good care of Ran-joo.
Are you okay with the questions?
Yes, they're fine.
Can I add one more, though?
Yes, of course.
I want to find someone with this song.
He was my manager's childhood friend.
I know.
Isn't his name Jung Ki-ho?
So you know his name.
I'd like to talk about them when introducing this song.
I want to help them meet again.
Are you sure it's okay to mention something so private on TV?
They may not be up for it.
I am up for it!
I'd totally love that.
No, I'm talking about Mr. Jung.
Thank you for working late.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
-Thank you. Goodbye.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you.
-Good work, everyone. -Thank you.
Goodbye.
We'll need to stay in touch. What should we do?
I'll come downstairs every day and check with you.
I picked the prettiest and biggest ones for you--
Our staff doesn't live here.
Are you going to visit all of their houses?
Right.
Well…
You should get a phone.
Right. Yes, I should.
And a driver's license.
Right. That too.
Of course.
I'll buy a phone.
As for the driver's license, I'll get that too.
Well…
Jeez. I know I look a bit pathetic in your eyes.
I seem to be immature, lacking manners,
and complacent, right?
Very pathetic, actually.
Sir, all the equipment's been packed.
Thank you for your work.
Jeez.
He's so condescending.
He's the absolute worst.
And he's younger than me.
Unbelievable.
I'd love a phone and a driver's license.
But what can I do?
I have no money.
Money.
BROTHERS SALON
After you're done shampooing, go have your dinner first.
There's a good hot pot place nearby.
I can't finish an entire hot pot alone. Let's just order some tofu stew.
The entire salon will reek of it. Let's just have gimbap.
Gimbap again?
I'll be pooping out gimbap one of these days.
Honey.
Gosh, he's such a fool.
Goodness.
Ms. Song.
You said you were hiring. Is this offer still valid?
Goodness.
Of course, it is!
Goodness.
Goodness. Then, can I…
Can I?
Hello, sir!
How are you?
Hey, Kang Woo-hak.
What were you covering this week again?
Residential noise complaints.
Right.
Focus on nighttime noises, not construction or protests.
-Got that? -Yes, sir.
So have you had lunch yet?
Yes, I have.
Pho is on the menu today.
Enjoy.
Pho.
I don't feel like pho today.
Bo-geol, have you had lunch yet? Want some gimbap?
Yes, Mok-ha.
It's a video of Ms. Yoon from 2008.
I'll send it to you once it's converted.
Your e-mail address…
You should create an e-mail account. It's free.
Okay.
Let me know once you do.
Bye.
How inconsiderate.
That's not how I raised you.
You're still here? I had lunch already.
Have you created an e-mail account recently?
You must verify yourself.
Choose a valid username.
Make a password with at least eight characters
with symbols, numbers, capital and lowercase letters.
Even I struggle with it.
She lived on a deserted island. Imagine how hard it'd be for her.
People like you who only care about their own convenience
are why people feel left out in the digital age.
You little brat.
What's wrong with him?
BROTHERS SALON
Hello.
What are you doing here?
I got a job. I needed some money.
I'm moonlighting here on top of being a manager.
That's great.
My parents can finally eat together now.
They always took turns eating, because they had no employee.
Why are you here at this hour?
Here.
This is Yoon Ran-joo's video from 2008.
She'll be up against this.
This is why you came here?
I got a phone. You could've just called.
I stopped by on my way for some home-cooked food.
I hate eating alone.
Jeez. Gimbap isn't home-cooked food.
Why do you think Ki-ho hasn't reached out to me yet?
I shouldn't think this way,
but I can't help but think that it's one of two reasons.
One of two?
Either he doesn't want to look for me,
or…
he's not alive.
What are you talking about?
You said that he was alive.
Then, does he not want to find me anymore?
Is that why he's not looking for me?
Jeez, that breaks my heart too.
Why only those two? There could be another reason.
Another reason?
I'm not sure there is. What other reason?
I suffer from memory loss.
-What do you mean? -I hurt my head in an accident.
So I don't remember anything before high school.
Really?
Yeah. Look.
From here to here. It's my scar.
Goodness gracious.
Gosh.
When I woke up from surgery,
it felt like my life began from high school.
Are you awake?
Do you recognize me?
-I didn't recognize her. -Do you?
But she said she was my mom.
It's me, Mom.
I didn't recognize my dad either.
Then, I met Bo-geol long after I was discharged.
He felt like a total stranger.
You don't have any memories at all?
Maybe if you look at old photos--
They said our house caught on fire.
And our photos were all burned up.
It's okay.
I recovered thanks to my family, and it wasn't too bad.
It's just a shame that I lost all of my childhood friends.
I'd love to find them, but I can't.
There's no way since I don't even remember them.
That's true.
Let's say if I were Ki-ho,
I wouldn't be able to find you since I don't remember you.
-What? -I mean…
You asked me if there were other reasons.
This could be one.
He's alive and wants to find you, but he lost his memory.
I see.
Who knows? Maybe Ki-ho could be like me.
Hey, your case isn't that common.
It is.
I know someone else like me.
Kang Jun-sang.
Kang Jun-sang? Who's that?
You should know him since it aired in 2002.
It's Winter Sonata's main character.
Come on.
That's who you're talking about?
See? That's two already.
I'm sure there are more.
Don't let your assumptions make you sad.
We still don't know.
By the way, about that term "eating alone"…
Is that when you eat by yourself?
Yeah.
Is that new to you too?
-Did they not use that term 15 years ago? -Of course not.
Given how they coined that term, I guess many people these days eat alone.
You bet.
Eating, drinking, watching movies, singing karaoke alone.
You do everything alone.
-Woo-hak. -What?
Call me over anytime you're about to eat alone.
You won't know where or what I'll be eating.
None of that matters.
Just call me, and I'll be there.
Why? Because it's for free?
If anything, I hate eating alone the most.
I did that for 15 years.
I did all sorts of things, because I hated eating alone.
Eat up.
I didn't prepare much though.
Goodness. Don't be ridiculous!
This is practically a feast!
Did you notice?
I just caught
a long-armed octopus that's the size of a normal octopus.
Look.
Isn't this just gigantic?
Eat up, will you?
Hey, gull.
Hey, seagull.
Goodness.
Yes.
You have a good appetite.
Yes.
Come here, one bite at a time.
Let's have a meal together.
Don't you understand me?
I went so far as to eat with a seagull.
You're a good eater.
It's a huge blessing to have someone
you can eat with.
So call me over whenever you want.
I'll come and eat with you even if I'm eating
at a buffet on Jeju Island.
Okay.
But how did you lure a seagull?
I lured it with some potatoes.
Seagulls eat potatoes?
Yes, it loved it.
How did it eat such a hard vegetable?
With its beak, of course.
But it's hard to penetrate.
That gull--
-"Gull"? -Seagull.
-Right. -The gull couldn't recognize me at first.
Of course not.
RJ ENTERTAINMENT ARTISTS' SCHEDULES
YOON RAN-JOO HEYDAY AGAIN LIVE BROADCAST
PARK YONG-GWAN (SEO MOK-HA)
Hello, sir.
About Ms. Yoon Ran-joo…
Is her appearance on Heyday Again set?
Yes, I confirmed it with Ms. Seo Mok-ha and the program itself.
-When is the broadcast? -This week.
Where are you now? Stop by my office.
Once I sell 20 million albums,
half of RJ Entertainment's shares will become mine.
You barely sold 20,000 albums in the past ten years.
So how will you do that?
Do you think I can't?
I beg to differ.
Could you tell Mr. Choi from Sales to come by?
I also want to reach out to Heyday Again.
Let's see.
I will wait for you
No matter how long it takes
What's her deal?
She must be insane.
Goodness, your beauty is blinding.
You're so gorgeous.
My singing was crazier back then.
My singing overcame the crappy sound system.
Goodness. You are beautiful and talented.
You have it all.
What do I do?
How can I possibly hold a candle to her?
Look at these neck wrinkles.
Goodness! You have no wrinkles.
You are absolutely stunning even now.
You look so beautiful even without makeup--
I got them tattooed.
My brows, eyes, and lips are all tattooed.
-Tattoos? -Right.
Who's the main producer of Heyday Again?
Right. Her name is Hong Yeon-kyung.
This won't be easy.
Why? Do you know her?
Of course, I know her.
We have quite the history.
I was vice-president of the RHC.
-RHC? -"Ran-joo Haters' Club."
-There's such a thing? -Yes, it's quite big.
The members became executive producers or division heads.
Remember Seong-hwan the radio director? He founded the club.
She must've been obnoxious for that kind of club to form.
It's a long list.
She was so fussy during her prime.
-Her nickname was Canary Yoon. -"Canary"?
You know, those birds that are sensitive to poisonous gas.
Isn't this asbestos dust? It's the most deadliest carcinogen.
Jeez, I'm leaving.
Call me once you clean this area.
What?
She'd cancel at the last minute and blame it on dust or other substances.
Gosh, there are no windows around here.
Radon will build up if this room isn't ventilated.
You're familiar with radon, right? The silent killer?
She even pulled out the radon card.
You would've thought she was Marie Curie or something.
But we had no choice since she was so famous back then.
We had to book her despite her extreme fussiness.
We had to spend more than our budget.
We bought an air purifier and a humidifier.
We even broke down the walls to build windows. Jeez.
I was a victim of her power trip.
Gosh, she was a headache.
Do you think she's still like that?
Of course not. She doesn't have a say.
She has less than a say. She has a minus say.
The air in here must've been bad back then.
Don't get me started. There isn't enough time in the day.
You fools. During my time--
Did anyone ask her to bring up the past? Did you?
You should know that you have it easy nowadays.
Every time I blew my nose after work, I'd have a bunch of black snot.
Thank you, Canary Yoon.
What? Why are you thanking her?
I bought that.
Only because Ms. Yoon told you to.
Right.
But…
I was a victim of her power trip.
Thank you for becoming a victim.
What do you take me--
Who is it?
What? Why would he call me?
Hello, President Lee. This is Hong Yeon-kyung speaking.
Yes.
Yes, Ms. Yoon will be appearing today.
Sorry?
-Are you nervous? -What?
Yes, a bit.
No, a lot.
I'm going to lie a lot today.
Although pathetic, I'll act confident.
I'll pretend to sing well.
I've withered, but I'll act like a blooming flower,
because today is April Fools' Day.
I see.
So you do the same. Boldly pretend like you're not nervous.
You can do that today.
Are you still nervous?
No.
You're a good liar.
-Excuse me. -Yes, I'm Yoon Ran-joo.
Rumors of me being a divorcée or a mistress are false. I'm clean.
I have no car for drunk driving or money for drugs.
I'm not lying low. I didn't retire.
I'm finally back on TV, and yes, I take the bus.
Thank you for your interest. Happy?
No, you're covering the information board,
and I was wondering if you could move.
I see.
Our bus is here. Let's go.
We'll be late to the studio.
Come in.
This way.
Goodness.
Gosh.
Ran-joo!
I'm so irritated and sick of her.
Goodness! Look who this is!
Darling!
I missed you so much!
Me too! It's been ages!
I know. You look so gorgeous today.
Our staff was waiting for you.
They're so grateful.
What? For what?
What? Over there.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
This is Ms. Yoon's treat. Please take good care of her.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
-You can do it. -This is Ms. Yoon's treat.
What would you like?
MS. YOON'S TREAT
Gosh.
Please take good care of her.
Thank you.
I thought her agency had forgotten her.
I guess not.
You're right.
Yong-gwan, what are you doing here?
President Lee told me to support you since you hadn't had a gig in a while.
Thank you.
Come on. Help me out here.
-Hello. -Okay.
-President Lee said that? -Yes.
He wants me to make sure everything pans out today.
Did he prepare all this too?
Yes, with his own money.
You should try one too.
There's quite a variety.
MS. YOON'S TREAT
What's up with President Lee?
Why is he suddenly sucking up to me?
He must think he can win our hearts with these little snacks.
I can totally see through him.
Goodness, Ran-joo.
Goodness, Ms. Cha.
Gosh, how did you get this outfit?
President Lee purchased it himself after hearing about this show.
He spent his own money on it.
What year are you competing with again?
-It's 2008. -Really?
Then, I'll turn you into Ran-joo from 2007.
Did President Lee contact you too?
I said I couldn't make it since I had a commercial to do, but he called me.
He begged me to show up
and give you a confidence boost since you hadn't had a gig in a while.
WE SUPPORT YOON RAN-JOO'S NEW HEYDAY
President Lee is like a horse chestnut.
You know what they are, right?
They're pretty but poisonous.
Ran-joo, do you know what this is?
Isn't it a chestnut?
It's called a horse chestnut.
Goodness. This is how a horse chestnut looks?
Yes.
It's poisonous, but it has a pretty name in French.
It's poisonous? Why?
There was a horse chestnut tree on the deserted island.
And these nuts look exactly like regular chestnuts.
You're right.
I was sick of eating potatoes every day,
so I had these one day.
Goodness. I was vomiting and ran a fever.
I almost died.
Seriously?
They're plump and look like delicious chestnuts.
That's how they lure us in.
You should never be fooled. Never.
Get rid of this.
Yes, ma'am.
The rehearsal will be at 3:00 p.m. Yes.
I'm on my way down. Bye.
What's wrong?
Disappointed that I look better in this jacket than you?
-Are you filming today? -Yeah, the Yoon Ran-joo episode.
How's her condition?
Good. Why?
She said a cold affected her voice at the Deodeok Festival.
I wondered if she was all better.
We're going to adjust the sound during rehearsal.
Is this the order?
Yes, it is.
My throat isn't doing too well right now.
I think you should still test it out.
Why don't you speak with the producer?
But she's all washed up now.
Rumor has it she's a drunk and a heavy smoker.
Yoon Ran-joo's incredible.
She sings even better than she used to.
I won't be sad anymore
My throat isn't doing too well today,
so I'll just do a mic test.
Please just check the volume.
I'll save my voice for the broadcast.
Ms. Yoon doesn't want to rehearse because of her throat.
What should we do?
We've already tested the lights and cameras, so let's skip it.
Okay. Mic test.
One, two, one, two, three, three.
Have you heard Mok-ha sing?
She's amazing. Give it a listen, and you'll understand.
I will wait for you No matter how long it takes
At the end of your long journey
I'll lend you my shoulder
Where's Seo Mok-ha?
-Did you check the numbered equipment? -Yes.
-Then, what's left to check? -It's on the other side.
-Let's go. -Okay.
What are you doing?
Hello, sir.
I heard you got a phone. Save my number.
Yes, sir.
Save me under a nickname.
Fans and reporters nowadays take photos of our screens too.
Only text things that will be okay even if they're exposed
and make calls for the rest.
Yes, sir.
That's a very important tip. Thank you, sir.
Are you singing again today?
Like last time?
No, Ran-joo's voice has gotten better.
Then, why didn't she sing during her rehearsal?
She sang her best even during dry runs in the past.
Are you sure her voice is back?
Yes, her voice is…
What are you doing here?
It's almost time for the live show. Let's be on standby.
Okay. I'm sorry.
HEYDAY AGAIN WILL BEGIN SOON
Make sure the host and Ms. Yoon are both on standby.
We have one minute.
Woo-hak, I got what we need.
We can report now.
Hold on.
Jeez, that brat.
The present you must beat the past you,
and then, you'll enjoy another heyday.
Heyday Again is live.
HEYDAY AGAIN
Let us introduce this week's contender.
The top diva of the 20th century,
Yoon Ran-joo, will be singing "That Night."
Let's begin with the performance on the left.
Like sand and sunlight
You escape through my fingers
Like the moment two clock hands meet
Our time together was too brief
Countless days and nights
You need to beat me at all costs.
That'll be the start of everything. Okay?
But I'm still waiting there
Ran-joo, if you win…
Don't worry. I'll remember to tell them.
I will wait for you No matter how long it takes
At the end of your long journey
I'll lend you my shoulder to let you rest
And give you this song
This time, let's listen to the performance on the right.
My long night has passed
And morning has finally dawned
I wonder when you look at the sky
Do you ever think about me?
Countless days and nights
The sun rose and fell a thousand times
Three.
Cut. Yoon Ran-joo's still got it.
She must've quit drinking and smoking.
On screen text on standby.
I will wait for you No matter how long it takes
At the end of your long journey
I'll lend you my shoulder to let you rest
And give you this song
Thank you.
Viewers at home,
which voice do you think was Yoon Ran-joo's from her heyday?
Please send your texts to #2142.
We will begin the nationwide voting.
Text "one" for the left stage
and "two" for the right stage.
Let's find out which voice was Yoon Ran-joo's from her heyday.
Voting will begin now.
One of the two voices was from a 2008 video.
The other voice was her singing the song live today.
Personally,
I don't think I can tell the difference at all.
Let's find out which performance
you chose as her voice from her heyday.
We will now reveal the voting results.
That's a huge gap.
The performance on the right won by a landslide.
I wonder which era this Yoon Ran-joo is from.
Is it 2008 or 2022?
Did the present Yoon Ran-joo beat her past self?
We will now reveal the winner.
The winner is…
Like the countless stars in the sky
Countless days I wait for pass
Those days I've dreamed of
When they finally come to me
I will wait for you No matter how long it takes
At the end of your long journey
I'll lend you my shoulder to let you rest
And give you this song
-Yoon Ran-joo! -Yoon Ran-joo!
Congratulations.
Yoon Ran-joo!
Yoon Ran-joo from 2022 defeated her past self from 2008.
-Yoon Ran-joo! -Yoon Ran-joo!
You've achieved your second heyday
with the largest voting margin ever on our show.
Did you expect this?
No, I didn't--
No, it was unexpected.
Thank you for your votes, everyone.
All right, then.
Please tell us how you feel.
I have so many people to thank.
First of all, I'd like to thank myself from 2008
for performing on this stage with me.
I'd also like to thank an individual who inspired me
to write this song.
Someone who inspired you?
Could it have been your first love?
No. He's a friend of my fan's.
I'd like to tell him something in case he's watching.
I'd like him to know that the friend he's looking for is doing well.
That friend is waiting, so I hope they'll meet one day.
This is what I'd like to say.
All right. So Yoon Ran-joo from 2022 finally beat herself from 2008.
Please give her a round of applause once again.
Thank you.
That was great.
-Hello. You were incredible. -Hello.
Good work.
Mok-ha, go to the restroom right now.
What? The restroom?
It's the best place to find out how the show went immediately after.
-Today's episode was amazing. -Seriously.
Did you see?
They're blowing up our phones.
They want Yoon Ran-joo's number.
How was the real-time viewer rating?
It went all the way up to 40%, so let's find out tomorrow.
Yoon Ran-joo may be obnoxious, petty, and annoying, but I admit.
She was really good.
If I were to exaggerate, she's a million times better now.
We've never had such a big voting gap.
I know. I got goosebumps.
I almost forgot to say "Cut."
-Really? -I'm telling you.
-Come on. -Seriously.
I can't believe you of all people would do that.
I saw the broadcast. You guys had an interview.
-How about some beer today? -I'm down.
-Is it your treat? -You bet.
Do you think Ki-ho watched it too?
-Let's have chicken. -Chicken?
DO YOU THINK KI-HO WATCHED IT TOO?
PROBABLY
Yes. Of course, he did.
Ki-ho, did you really see it?
Did you hear it?
It was my voice.
HEYDAY AGAIN
Like the countless stars in the sky
Countless days I wait for pass
Those days I've dreamed of
When they finally come to me
I will wait for you No matter how long it takes
At the end of your long journey
I'll lend you my shoulder to let you rest
And give you this song
Where's Ms. Yoon?
She's changing.
Then, please tell her to follow the script for our next live show.
I apologize.
I begged her to say that on camera.
Are you that desperate to find him?
Sorry?
It's been 15 years now.
He's probably changed.
Maybe he became a criminal and couldn't reach out to you.
Do you know Ki-ho?
No.
I do.
So…
please don't say such things if you don't.
Their highest ratings? Seriously?
Well, I mean…
I didn't do much.
You deserve the credit for preparing the show. I just showed up.
My earrings are really sold out?
Unbelievable!
You must've gotten a really pretty shot of them, Ms. Hong.
This is all thanks to you. Thank you.
All right. See you next week.
Thanks to her, my foot.
This is all
-thanks to us! -Thanks to us!
EMPEROR OF SUGAR
Don't you have to pick that up?
No, I don't have to.
Jeez.
Just for being on that show
all kinds of pathetic losers are reaching out to me.
-Were a lot of articles written about us? -Do you want to see?
"Yoon Ran-joo."
There are too many, so I can't read all of them.
I'll just read the headlines for you.
"Yoon Ran-joo, The Queen Lives Forever."
"Love live the queen!"
There are two women in this country who fit the term "queen."
Kim Yu-na and…
me.
Right. I loved the title of that other article too.
"She Proves Herself To Be In A Class of Her Own Once Again."
"Yoon Ran-joo Is the Same As Ever."
"Why Had We Forgotten About Her?"
"In 2022, Yoon Ran-joo Vigorously Begins…"
"Her Next Heyday."
You know what?
My favorite article of all was…
Click on this one.
Okay.
"The queen has returned."
"No, the queen had always been shining on her throne."
"We didn't notice because her radiance was too dazzling."
That's right.
That was how I was born again.
Ran-joo, are you crying?
Ran-joo.
The war has begun.
And the wind is on our side.
At this rate, selling 20 million albums will be a walk in the park.
War and wind?
Who do you think you are? Admiral Yi Sun-sin?
She cried?
The ratings were superb. All the articles complimented her.
So why would she cry?
I don't know. She cried for a while, then left.
Maybe they were tears of joy.
-That could happen. -Woo-hak!
Someone sent you flowers.
-Flowers? -Yeah.
Coming. Hold on.
Thank you.
-Do you have good news? -Not really.
I'm back. I don't know why anyone would send me flowers.
Is it your birthday today?
No, but there's a card inside.
Hold on.
Who sent it?
Woo-hak.
These flowers…
are for you.
TELL MOK-HA I'LL BE WAITING THERE AT 8 P.M. TODAY - JUNG KI-HO
You were right.
These are tears of joy.
The chief even gave us the corporate credit card.
I know.
Don't we deserve some top-notch beef on a day like this?
You don't know anything.
It's an unspoken rule to have cafeteria food when the ratings are high.
Look at who this is.
It's the Heyday Again team who helps keep YGN afloat.
You can go first.
Excuse me.
Make way.
You're fully booked for next week's commercials?
Even the three-minute commercials are booked.
Looking good, Ms. Hong.
How was Yoon Ran-joo?
Tell us how it went at our next RHC gathering.
You haven't heard?
I'm her fan now.
I love her so much.
I'll have that.
Viewer ratings can sure change a person.
You may not believe me, but I want to be alone right now.
Why? You hate eating alone.
Is something up?
Do you know why I was intrigued by Ki-ho?
Because he was just like me.
He was firm and wise.
He listened to Mok-ha and supported her dream.
He was selfless, and…
Seo Mok-ha.
I understood why he wanted to protect her.
He felt like someone familiar.
He was just like me.
How so?
He's a completely different individual.
You're right. He is.
He isn't me.
What?
He sent Mok-ha a bouquet of flowers today.
What did you just say?
Hey.
This stop is Seoul Station Bus Transfer Center.
Next stop is Sungnyemun.
You didn't change your passcode.
And the treats are where they always were.
There was no need to change them.
You're right.
I know very well that you only do things for a reason.
Gosh, that's noisy.
It sounds like a tank. Let's take it down a notch.
Noise is our theme, so we can't reduce it.
Go on.
How can anyone live there?
-They can't even hear their babies crying. -I know.
Where the hell is he?
Hold on.
Jung Ki-ho!
Hey!
Are you okay?
Reporter Kang!
Wake up.
Open up.
Open this now.
Father.
Hey, are you okay?
Sorry?
Yes.
What happened? I almost called an ambulance.
You startled me.
-It's okay. I was just a bit dizzy. -What's up with you?
Get up. Let's go to the hospital.
No, it's okay.
I need to go to the restroom.
Are you really okay?
What's going on?
What was all that?
Who am I?
Who in the world was he?
Woo-hak!
Someone sent you flowers.
Reporter Kang Woo-hak?
TELL MOK-HA I'LL BE WAITING THERE AT 8 P.M. TODAY - JUNG KI-HO
No.
No, Mok-ha.
Mok-ha.
Your call can't be connected.
SEO MOK-HA
Come on.
The PR Team must've worked hard.
The press release was excellent.
And they picked a good photo of me.
I saw you on the show.
You haven't changed.
What was your reason?
You prepared snacks, called Ms. Cha, and even made a press release.
You didn't support me this much during my prime.
I can normally see your motives,
but not this time.
Do you have to know?
Can't you just appreciate my kindness?
It bothers me.
It makes me uneasy.
I felt bad.
I felt guilty.
It's getting late. I'll drive you home.
You know what, Ran-joo?
I actually ate these horse chestnuts
several times afterward.
Why? Because you mistook them for chestnuts?
No, because I was hungry.
The typhoon had destroyed all the potatoes.
I was on the verge of starvation
and went totally insane.
I knew they weren't regular chestnuts.
"These are chestnuts."
I ended up believing that.
CULTURE STATION SEOUL 284
When you're very desperate,
you become a total fool.
Ran-joo.
Your songs won't top the charts.
I told the Sales Team to recall all of your albums
both online and offline.
No one can purchase or sell your albums now.
You could appear on TV all you want.
And you still won't sell 20 million albums.
Is that why…
That's why…
I felt bad.
I truly mean that.
You're so heartless.
Are you okay, sir?
Ki-ho.
You're Ki-ho, right?
CASTAWAY DIVA
You.
-You know, don't you? -Ki-ho!
Is Ki-ho the only thing you and Woo-hak ever think about?
But that's how I am.
I wonder if Ki-ho's safe.
That's all I ever think about!
Did you know?
Because of you, why do I--
You're hurt because she took it out on you.
She was surrounded by enemies.
Who's cowardly and shameless now?
I'll be your voice and armor.
What if what happened today repeats itself?
She'll be protected.
