Andante (안단테)

I got it already.

I'm at the hospice. I'll bring her home.

Okay, I'll take care of the apology. Enough already.

I even gave her the letter, and she's still not home.

Ring? I told you I haven't seen it.

I never paid attention to any ring, so I wouldn't know.

When did it go missing?

Uh, by the way...

can you do me a favor?

Can you read this for me?

I'm in no mood to read anything.

My head hurts.

You sure are stingy.

What did you say?

Am I your personal secretary?

Why are you asking me to read that to you?

Don't you know how to read?

I'm illiterate. Are you happy now?

This is why I don't like you, Grandma!

Why are you spreading my letter around all over the place?

That rude girl...

That rude girl from the fast food place.

Be quiet!

Who are you calling rude?

The way I see it, you're the rude person here.

Why, you old grandma!

So, you're sure she gave it to you?

Yes.

I really had no intention of accepting it though.

Even if she gave it to you, things could get complicated.

I don't know how it would work legally.

Wouldn't it be better to discuss it with adults?

Which adult?

My mom has so much to worry about already.

My mom? My grandma?

We can't just ignore the issue.

If you say you lost it...

that daughter-in-law is no joke, and she won't let it go.

Also, I heard Grandma Ring is in very bad condition right now.

I don't know. I don't know.

What are you two talking about?

Lee Shi Young, what are you doing here?

I asked what you're talking about. Did you lose something expensive?

What did you just say?

Did I say something wrong?

What have you done right that allows you to look at me like that?

I've come across all kinds of people here.

Though, I've never seen anyone like you.

Me?

Why, you old grandma...

Bong Sook is my friend, and I've grown fond of her.

She's not a stranger to me, so I have to say my piece.

Say your piece?

How hilarious.

Who are you, Grandma?

Let's not drag this out. You're very transparent, you wench.

"You... you... you wench"?

Grandma!

She doesn't have much time left to live.

People should have some morals, at the very least.

What did I do wrong? What did I do?

People should do as much as I do.

She could be gone the day after tomorrow.

Is that mere ring so important?

She paid for your education, paid for your house, and supported you.

What more do you want?

Stay put if you don't know anything.

Do you know how much that ring is worth?

No matter how much it's worth, is it more important than a life?

I wouldn't even leave you a copper ring!

What is with you, you old grandma?

Who do you think you are? Are you her guardian?

Are you a doctor?

Friend? Friend, yeah right.

My mother-in-law never made an illiterate friend like you.

You old grandma!

Don't get any closer to my grandma.

What is this now?

Ah, that rude girl.

The grandma and granddaughter are quite a set.

You're a set!

What is going on here?

Why are you acting like this?

You seem to do well and then blow up once or twice a year.

Me? What are you talking about?

- This is the first time. - Huh?

You always say it's the first time.

Why are you so stubborn about fighting?

I would look the other way, but she was too much.

She doesn't have an ounce of affection for her mother-in-law.

She's always going on about that ring.

You did well.

Shi Kyung and Shi Young, you're going home, right?

Let's go. I'll drive you home.

- No. - What?

Everyone go outside and wait.

Shi Young, you stay and talk to me.

Is that "copo" thing so important?

"Cos-Play." And yes, it's important to me.

I wouldn't have thrown it out if you had told me.

That's not everything.

What else?

Why didn't you tell me that you didn't know how to read Korean?

Why would you ask that kind of lady, of all people, to read my letter?

What's wrong with that?

I can't even read, and you want me to be picky?

You got into a fight, and it was embarrassing.

Embarrassing?

Why? Because your grandma can't read?

Because your grandma threw out that "copo" thing?

Because I fought that rude woman and cursed at her?

That kind of thing is not what is truly embarrassing.

I may be ignorant.

But, I'm not someone you ought to be embarrassed of.

I have a good idea.

You and I are in the same position, so how about this?

What do you mean?

I'll teach you how to read Korean, Grandma.

- What? - In return...

you can enter the talent show with me.

What are you talking about?

Here.

We're supposed to call when Shi Young is out.

My father will come with his car.

Father?

Father...

- What about it? - It's just amazing.

I've never called someone father before.

When I was very young, my dad...

he went missing when I was still calling him "Dad, Dad."

You're lucky.

Why?

You don't have to take bones out of your fish.

- You're lucky. - Why?

You have lots of women in your home.

I told you to adopt Shi Young.

Oh no. We're splitting her.

What is Shi Young talking about with your grandma?

I don't know. They're the same.

Their personalities and stubbornness.

Even the way they're both good with their hands.

I guess you're right.

Why are there so many stars? They all look the same too.

What does it look like?

A teardrop diamond.

The moment I saw the stars spilling out of the sky...

I was asking my dad.

Dad, what should I do at a time like this?

What is it?

What do you want to do out here alone?

How can you joke around right now?

You couldn't find the ring, right?

No.

What are you going to do? It's all my fault.

You're right. It is all your fault.

You pay for it.

I'm just joking.

I'm thinking about how to deal with it, so you don't need to worry.

Do you have an idea?

Not yet.

December, 1876.

It was a musical concert in honor of Tolstoy.

There is a famous anecdote that he... he cried after hearing this music?

No! I shouldn't say that part first.

I can't get confused like this. I'm going crazy!

It's so hot.

Oh my goodness!

Hurry up, and close the window.

What do I do?

How are you?

I was doing all right just a moment ago, but now I'm not so sure.

What?

Here you go.

Thank you.

What are you doing?

You're going to practice anyway.

It's better to do it in front of an audience.

When I took over the death experience classes

I was so nervous and felt such a burden.

I called all my old classmates and bought them lots of drinks.

I got them drunk.

They were all drunk and lying on the ground.

It was much better after I practiced in front of them.

Just relax when you do it. No one will notice if you get it wrong.

Also, the worst that could happen is that you don't get the job.

All right. Try it.

Relax, and try it with me.

Okay.

Suppose that the ring is worth 2 billion won.

What is the minimum wage?

Suppose it's 6,500 won.

Divide 2 billion won by 6,500 won.

How many zeroes is 2 billion won?

The song that brought tears to Tolstoy's eyes

came from the melody of a folk song from rural Ukraine.

Tchaikovsky happened to hear this melody while passing through Kamionka.

Something about this simple and modest melody pulled at the hearts of people.

There must've been something about it...

Ah. Uh... well...

Uh, well...
