02:46It's called
02:48Sorry to let you see us argue like this.
02:52Thank you for coming to help.
02:54Not at all. It's all I can do.
02:56Don't get angry with your mother.
03:00I'm really sorry.
03:02Ling Xiao!
03:18I'm sorry.
03:32It's not because of your mom.
03:34I don't want you to see her.
03:40From now on,
03:42stay away from her.
03:48I think that way
03:50she'll only hate me more.
03:52I want it to be on my best behavior.
03:56An elder should be respected.
04:04Respect should be earned.
04:06She has to act like an elder.
04:12No, this is wrong.
04:14Because she's your mother.
04:18I'm sorry.
04:40Don't be upset.
04:42When people are angry,
04:44nothing good comes out of their mouths.
04:46I know that.
04:48But this time,
04:50I really meant to redeem myself.
04:52Because I know
04:54I've made a lot of mistakes.
04:58I still remember
05:00when he was little and needed me the most,
05:02I wasn't there for him.
05:04That's the reason why
05:06I want to be around him.
05:08I want to help him,
05:10take care of him,
05:12and keep him company.
05:14I didn't expect
05:18it would be this hard.
05:24All mothers are the same,
05:26wherever they may be.
05:28However much you dislike your son's girlfriend at least,
05:30you should try to be nice to her.
05:32They've only been together for a while.
05:34Things between them are heating up.
05:40I understand.
05:42But I just can't grow fond of her.
05:44That's understandable.
05:46That Li Jianjian
05:48isn't great.
05:50She didn't try to please you and that's fine.
05:52But she told on you
05:54and provoked Ling Xiao to…
05:58If they're going to be married one day,
06:00you'll forever lose your son.
06:12Mom!
06:22Mom!
06:24Ms. Song.
06:26Mingyue, what brings you here?
06:28Your mom didn't say anything.
06:30I need to speak with my mom. It's urgent.
06:32Oh. All right, Qin.
06:34I'll leave you two to talk.
06:36I'll have lunch myself.
06:38Okay.
06:40Please, tell me.
06:42What happened between you and Dad?
06:44Aren't you too happy if you get a divorce?
06:46Mom, that's enough!
06:48Are you really going to divorce Dad this Friday?
06:50Isn't that what you want?
06:52You can go wherever you fancy without lying to me!
06:54Mom, I was wrong!
06:56And I'm really sorry!
07:02Back in high school,
07:04I was so immature.
07:06I regret it now.
07:08I was mad with you.
07:10I failed to do well in college exam because I was a fool.
07:16Otherwise, I could have gone to a better college.
07:20Mom, I'm sorry I failed you.
07:22I was wrong.
07:28Was it me that you failed?
07:30You owe it to yourself that you failed!
07:32Many would die for a spot at a top university.
07:34Why? Because they're stupid?
07:36If you could get into the top two,
07:38would I stop you from going?
07:40I really wish I could change things now.
07:44I've kept it hidden deep inside me for a long time,
07:46but I don't know how to tell you, Mom.
07:50I couldn't stop myself thinking back then.
07:52I wanted to slap myself!
07:54Let me give you that slap then!
07:58Mom!
08:00Mom!
08:02Don't hurt yourself.
08:06Please!
08:08Why?
08:10Why do you hate me so much?
08:12Why are you doing this to me?
08:14Why treat me like that?
08:16What on earth did I do wrong?
08:18Tell me!
08:20All these years of my life revolved around you two.
08:24How could you just dump me
08:26like a piece of worthless trash?
08:36Mom.
08:42Mom.
08:46Because I wanted to work in Beijing for two years,
08:50and I disobeyed you.
08:52So you hate me and want to abandon me.
08:58The reason why you want to go to Beijing
09:00is to run away from me.
09:02You think I don't know that?
09:06Yes, at first that was my intention.
09:10However, Mom,
09:12I'm doing it for myself now.
09:16I want to be a journalist.
09:18You know that, Mom.
09:20You know very well that's my passion.
09:22Not just answering calls from citizens
09:24and mediating disputes at the local channel.
09:26I want to do news about people's livelihood
09:28to do a live report from the scene.
09:32Mom,
09:34this is my lifelong dream.
09:36Do you understand?
09:52No wonder you came back
09:54in the middle of the day.
09:56Did your senior alumnus
09:58see your design
10:00when he went to your studio?
10:04He heard that I opened my own business,
10:06so he dropped by.
10:10My sketchbook was on my desk at that time.
10:12So he picked it up and looked at it.
10:16I didn't think it'll turn out this way.
10:18You said you got your inspiration from a photo.
10:20What photo?
10:24Well, that photo.
10:26It was in high school.
10:28Mingya took a photo of us
10:30while we were on the playground.
10:32Yeah. Remember this?
10:46Hey! Picture time!
10:48Come on! One, two, three!
10:52She developed the film and gave us the photo.
10:56Well, where is it?
10:58When I did that
11:00capsule thing with my classmates,
11:02I put it inside.
11:04Where did you bury it?
11:06It was a vacant lot at that time.
11:08But now…
11:14There is no hope.
11:16Later in college,
11:18I lost my laptop with a soft copy.
11:20Wait!
11:22When she had the photos,
11:24she also gave you and Seto a copy each.
11:26Where's yours?
11:28I forgot
11:30where I put it.
11:32Let's go ask Sucho.
11:34He always takes good care of his stuff.
11:36Right now?
11:38I'll take you to get a coffee
11:40so you don't put on a long face at home.
11:42Let's go.
11:46One kiwi smoothie,
11:48a latte, and fruit salad.
11:50The fruit salad is included in our sandwich combo.
11:52Would you like that sandwich combo?
11:54Fine.
11:5692 yuan.
11:58Cash or WeChat? WeChat.
12:00Scan the QR code, please.
12:08Sucho,
12:10one kiwi smoothie and a latte. Got it.
12:12And one sandwich combo.
12:14Okay.
12:16Hi, welcome.
12:20What are you doing here?
12:22Shouldn't you be at work?
12:24Yes. You're doing well.
12:26Like the real deal. You look like a grown-up.
12:28All waitresses are grown-up.
12:32Just stop playing cool. Smile if you're happy.
12:38What's your drink?
12:40What can you make? I can work the juicer.
12:42Fine.
12:44Make two glasses of orange juice for us.
12:46Okay.
12:52You're quite alike.
12:54Probably because she's my sister.
12:56Hey, Qiao.
12:58Yes?
13:00My family's here. Help me with the coffee.
13:02Okay.
13:04Sit down.
13:06When I first went abroad,
13:08I stayed at Chau Wa Gua's for months.
13:10Then I left in haste
13:12and didn't bring everything with me.
13:15Why don't you call and ask him?
13:19Get back to work.
13:22Ling Xiao can check again.
13:24Your album could be buried under the pile in the box
13:26when you moved in.
13:28I can't find it.
13:32Excuse me, if I may.
13:34I'm not sure about his other stuff,
13:36but I know his album.
13:38Jin Meiyan.
13:40Three years ago, those photos were destroyed.
13:42My mom went nuts and cut them.
13:44Hadn't I sensed something was wrong
13:46and hidden his certificates,
13:48they would have been destroyed too.
13:50The past is the past. Don't rake it up.
13:52If I were you, I'd get everything out.
13:54So ask to let them be prepared.
13:56Or if Mom loses it again,
13:58they've never seen it. They can't handle it all.
14:04If he won't tell you, I will.
14:06When my brother was about to graduate from college,
14:08my mom was still doing okay.
14:10So he planned to come back.
14:14Here, this one tastes better.
14:18Don't just eat meat.
14:20Eat some greens.
14:22Your face is so round already.
14:24A good appetite is a blessing.
14:26Blessing? It won't be when you regret eating too much.
14:28Lean back a bit.
14:30Your hair is in the bowl.
14:32Have you thought about your workplace?
14:34I've asked about the company you worked as an intern.
14:36It looks like a good one.
14:38It pays well and gives benefits.
14:40I haven't decided yet.
14:42You need to decide soon.
14:44Where are your classmates going to work?
14:48Mom,
14:50have you considered going back to China?
14:54Of course not.
14:56What do you mean going back to China?
14:58I was raised here in Singapore.
15:00All my friends are here.
15:02Right, Mom?
15:04That's right.
15:06I've been in Singapore for almost 20 years.
15:08I fit here.
15:10If you go back, I may feel strange there.
15:12Besides,
15:14I'm too weak to travel.
15:16I can't leave.
15:18Just hurry up and get it settled.
15:20Stop hesitating.
15:22Mom,
15:24you can take care of yourself now.
15:26Singapore has all sorts of facilities.
15:28You can stop worrying about my sister.
15:32So I'm thinking,
15:34of working in China.
15:38Singapore is just one plane away.
15:40I can visit you anytime.
15:43Ling Haoping called you, didn't he?
15:45He didn't.
15:56I know I'm a lot.
15:59I don't want to be a burden.
16:02I don't want to be a burden.
16:04But it's really hard for me now.
16:07Yes, I can walk and go out.
16:09But I still need my wheelchair.
16:12If I fall, Little Orange isn't strong enough
16:14to help me up.
16:16And what if she gets sick?
16:19I can take her to the hospital.
16:21When that happens, what should I do?
16:23The doctor says you don't need to worry.
16:26How would a doctor concern himself with me?
16:28He's not paralyzed.
16:30He wouldn't know how hard it is to be paralyzed.
16:33It's so easy for him to say that.
16:35I don't need to worry.
16:38What is Ling Haoping thinking?
16:40He isn't old or disabled.
16:42It's not that he can't walk.
16:44Why is he trying to steal you away?
16:49Mom, calm down.
16:51You really need to calm down.
16:54Mom, calm down. We were just talking.
16:56There's nothing to talk about.
16:59If you ask me, my answer is no.
17:15Brother, are you really going back to your dad?
17:20I was planning to after graduation.
17:22You can't leave me alone here.
17:24I don't know how to take care of Mom.
17:26You just saw how bad her temper is.
17:28I'm begging you, brother.
17:30Can you not leave me?
17:33Brother.
17:53Mom, why didn't you knock?
17:56Are you looking at photos?
17:58What photos?
18:00It's nothing.
18:02Show them to me.
18:03I'm going to bed.
18:05Next time, please knock first.
18:11Okay.
18:13Good night then.
18:16Don't stay up late just because you're young.
18:19Don't stay up late just because you're young.
18:50I'm home.
18:54Brother?
19:06Little Orange, did you clean my sneakers?
19:10I threw them away.
19:13I'm sorry.
19:16I threw them away.
19:18They're worn out.
19:20I'll get you new ones.
19:27What the hell are you doing, Mom?
19:30Aren't you going back?
19:33You can see them every day.
19:36Why do you still need these pictures?
19:39Can you give it a rest, Mom?
19:42What do you want from me?
19:44They must have spoken ill behind my back.
19:48They call me names all the time.
19:50And I'm supposed to keep their photos?
19:53As mementos?
19:55How big-hearted do you think I am?
19:58I'm sorry. I can't do it.
20:00Just leave if you want. Don't mind me.
20:03I don't want to get you into trouble.
20:05I hate to be a bother or a burden.
20:07I should have died with Little Orange as dad.
20:09Just stop it, Mom.
20:11Forget about me.
20:13My death would end things once and for all.
20:15Without me, that'd be a weight off your shoulders.
20:18You can go.
20:21Just go!
20:40I get it.
20:42I'm not leaving.
20:44I'll finalize my job.
20:46Where are you going?
20:48To get my sneakers back.
20:50I'll go help him.
20:54Mom, I'll be right back.
20:59Brother, don't go, please.
21:01Those sneakers are a gift.
21:03I have to get them back.
21:05I know. I've taken them back secretly.
21:08They're in my school bag.
21:11They're in my school bag.
21:21Brother!
21:22Brother, what's wrong with you?
21:40Why are you sitting here?
21:42Oh, nothing.
21:44Have they left?
21:46Yes.
21:54I'm sorry.
21:56It's my fault.
21:58It's my fault.
22:00It's my fault.
22:02It's my fault.
22:04It's my fault.
22:06It's my fault.
22:09It's my fault.
22:15Attitude matters when you care about others.
22:19You know, one can be both.
22:21Sharp-tongued and kind-hearted.
22:24That means...
22:26being hard on the outside and soft on the inside.
22:31But most of the time,
22:33being hard on the outside is hurtful enough.
22:36They hate me anyway.
22:38Who hates you? Your brother or Li Zhenzhen?
22:42They both hate me.
22:44I see. Maybe the way you do things is annoying.
22:48That's not the reason.
22:52After graduating, my brother planned to come back, but I begged him not to.
22:57I feared being left alone with Mom.
23:00From then on, my brother had scarcely any smiles.
23:04He didn't talk. He was depressed.
23:07He was absent-minded.
23:09I knew how hard it was to look after us and how eager he was to come back here.
23:29Your fear is natural.
23:31Back then, you were still a kid.
23:33I was 14 already.
23:37I kept telling myself every day I cannot be my mom.
23:41But what I did, it's not different from her.
23:46Here's the difference.
23:48A 14-year-old could be a carry-on, but not at 50.
23:52A carry-on?
23:54Think about it.
23:56When you were a teenager, you couldn't live on your own.
23:59Others had to carry you.
24:03That makes sense.
24:05Therefore, a teenager acting like a spoiled child is forgivable.
24:11And you said it yourself.
24:13Ling Xiao chose to stay mostly because of you.
24:16So how could you say he hates you?
24:22But Li Zhenzhen hates me so much.
24:24Soon after he returned, her father and your family spoke ill behind us.
24:27You've completely won over my brother's heart.
24:29Wait, hold on.
24:30Who told you all that?
24:32Your mom?
24:36You're 17 years old.
24:38Can't you think on your own?
24:39I believe that was true after I thought about it.
24:42When I was a kid, well, Li Zhenzhen...
24:46I know I'm her least favorite person.
24:48When you were a kid?
24:52Are you talking about the time...
24:55you broke your head but you lied and blamed it to Li Zhenzhen?
25:03It's been so many years.
25:05You're still not over it?
25:07I'm not over it.
25:09Do you think Zhenzhen is still a child who holds grudges?
25:13It's been years.
25:14She already forgot it.
25:16You think she doesn't like you because you feel guilty in front of her?
25:25You should apologize to her and change your attitude.
25:29Otherwise, who can feel your warm heart?
25:31No, I won't.
25:32She'd laugh at me silently.
25:33Hey, look.
25:34You claim that you don't want to be like your mom.
25:37But actually, you think just like her.
25:39You always think the worst of others.
25:54You have 10 minutes.
25:56Get yourself together and get back to work.
25:58Welcome to the grown-up world.
26:28Hello.
26:54Suzhou.
26:59When I left your place in Britain,
27:01I left some things there.
27:03Is it still there?
27:05What things?
27:06You threw them?
27:08They should be in the basement.
27:10I have a couple of pictures in my English book.
27:13Just scan them and send it to me.
27:16That's all.
27:17By the way, send me your account number.
27:19I'll transfer money to you.
27:21Keep the money for yourself.
27:23No need.
27:24I can support myself.
27:27Your grandpa is sick.
27:29You should come and see him.
27:32What's wrong with him?
27:33Lung cancer.
27:35He's puffed on the pipe all his life.
27:37His days are numbered.
27:39You should come visit him.
27:41He wants to see his grandsons.
27:43Don't you have another son?
27:45The more, the merrier.
27:47He'd like to see both of you.
27:49He's in the city.
27:51You can visit him easily.
27:52But you're not my dad.
27:57My pictures.
27:59You chose to make this call.
28:01Because those pictures are important, aren't they?
28:04Look, here's the thing.
28:06We can help each other.
28:07Come and visit your grandpa.
28:09And I'll send the pictures to you.
28:10Deal?
28:12Fine.
28:13When will you send it?
28:15Is it urgent?
28:16It is.
28:17Then come see him more often in the next few months.
28:19So that he'll leave without regrets.
28:21After that, you can do whatever you want.
28:24Hey, why do you change your mind?
28:26Just think about it.
28:27Call me when you have a decision.
28:44It's scorching outside.
28:46What's your plan after work?
28:48Nothing.
28:49Same old with the subway.
28:51I have a free ride.
28:55Oh, my friend is waiting for me.
28:57I gotta go.
28:58Okay, bye.
29:01Why are you here?
29:02I still owe you.
29:03My mom told me to treat you to dinner.
29:05I had dinner with you.
29:06This is unnecessary.
29:07It's alright.
29:08After dinner, let's watch a play.
29:10Secret Love in Peach Blossom, front row.
29:12Secret Love in Peach Blossom!
29:15In front row seats!
29:18Wait!
29:19Tell me, where are you going?
29:22Wait!
29:23Tell me, what would you like to eat?
29:25Dinner's on me.
29:26It's my treat.
29:27I know! Let me buy you seafood at the dock.
29:31Buckle up.
29:40Plays are different from TV dramas.
29:42Classic good plays deserve to be watched repeatedly.
29:45Besides, the actor performs differently in every show on the stage.
29:49Their experiences mount.
29:51That makes a difference.
29:53It's so much fun.
29:54The actors' lines, performances, behaviors can't be edited in post as that of dramas.
29:59All of their strengths and weaknesses will be amplified together.
30:03Whenever you talk about acting,
30:05you go on and on like a super hyped-up kid on sugar.
30:10I really like to watch plays.
30:13Whenever you bring that up, your eyes sparkle.
30:17That can't bring home the bacon.
30:19Now I'm content with my job at the museum.
30:22It's stable and less stressful.
30:24I don't need to be an actress.
30:26Watching others act is the same.
30:28No, it's not.
30:29You know what?
30:30The moment you bring up your current job,
30:32your mood suddenly darkens and you put on a long face.
30:36At least two out of three in my family are happy.
30:42I think your parents got the wrong idea about acting.
30:45They're thinking about stars, not actors as professionals.
30:50In my mom's opinion, actors and stars are the same.
30:54I really don't know much, but my buddy directs plays.
30:57Yeah, they perform plays in those small theaters.
31:00All those actors are unknown and so are their works,
31:02but they have so much fun doing it.
31:04I do think they really love acting.
31:06They're not doing it for fame.
31:08I'm not after fame either.
31:10I also love acting.
31:12Every time the camera focuses on me,
31:15the light hits me, all eyes are on me.
31:17I feel like I'm Popeye who has endless strength
31:20after eating spinach.
31:22Hey, why don't you try auditioning for plays?
31:26No, I can't, I can't, I can't.
31:28Why can't you audition?
31:29Come on, are you kidding me?
31:31The bar for doing plays is set much higher than dramas.
31:34I can't reach it.
31:35Look at you. You're so negative.
31:38To be an actress, you should get your head in the game.
31:41Take a break, will you?
31:42I was just a double in film and TV shows.
31:44Forget about plays.
31:46I'm not even qualified to hold the script.
31:48See? You're pessimistic.
31:49I'm a pessimist and a complete mess, so what?
31:53I decided to stay out of the camera lights.
31:55It was so exhausting.
31:57Now you're telling me to go back?
31:59If I make even the slightest attempt, my mom will kill me.
32:03Alright, fine. Enough about that. Let's eat.
32:11Okay.
32:21That's outrageous!
32:22She stole her schoolmate's design!
32:24Shame on her!
32:26I met her in sculpture class.
32:28We were told to learn from her, but she struck me as mediocre.
32:32Go to hell, thief!
32:34She's brought shame to our school!
32:36Our school should take this seriously.
32:38Take off her work from the exhibition hall.
32:40She's such an embarrassment!
32:43I kinda liked her before.
32:44Trash! She even copied our senior alumnus!
32:47Totals cum!
32:49Check my ID!
32:56Yes?
32:57What's going on? What's Yufei doing?
33:00I don't know. He didn't answer my call.
33:02Did you tell him about your idea, or did he peek at your design?
33:06He peeked.
33:07Well, don't you have the original photo? Post it!
33:11Still looking for it.
33:12That guy is a total scumbag.
33:14I won't work for him!
33:16Whatever.
33:18Hey, stop sulking.
33:19And stay away from the school forum.
33:21I'm on it now.
33:23Stop it.
33:24Just ignore those idiots.
33:26Find the photo first. I'll dig up his dirt.
33:28We'll crush him!
33:30Let's crush him!
33:32What?
33:34I thought you'd hesitate and say things like
33:37he's your schoolmate, so you don't want to be harsh.
33:40What schoolmate?
33:42The moment he stole my idea, he was degraded to an animal.
33:45All plagiarists are enemies of mankind.
33:48They're like termites of wood.
33:50Right. Well put.
33:52Since you've thought it through, I'll be on full throttle.
33:54I'll do the digging now. Bye.
33:59Who was that?
34:00Cheng Shilan.
34:04Du Chuan.
34:07What's up, Du Chuan?
34:08Have you found the photo?
34:10Not yet.
34:11You'd better hurry up.
34:13My WeChat has been ringing all day.
34:15Students are all asking me about it.
34:17Apparently, they bought Yu Fei's story.
34:19Let's talk when we meet tomorrow.
34:21Gotta go. Bye.
34:33How about an ice cream boat? Let's go.
34:37Come on.
34:42I've never had such a clearer view.
34:44This kind of seat must be over a thousand yuan.
34:47I've never bought one for myself before.
34:49As long as you enjoy it, then it's worth it.
34:53You've paid a huge price to please me.
34:55You want me to set you up with Mingye?
34:57What are you talking about? I was over her long ago.
35:00Clearly, love at first sight is all about the look.
35:03I know for a fact that that person's look happens to be your taste.
35:07It never works without knowing each other.
35:09Once you meet, it's over.
35:11Wait, are you talking about yourself or me?
35:14Isn't it obvious? I meant both of us.
35:18Look, the more times we meet, the less I like you romantically.
35:24Thanks a lot.
35:26From now on, we are going to be good buddies.
35:30I don't want to be your buddy. I have Zichou.
35:33Zichou's buddy is Lingxiao.
35:35Lingxiao is family. It's not the same.
35:37You know what? Don't feel too good about yourself.
35:40Think about it.
35:41If you and Lingxiao fall into the water, who will Zichou save?
35:45I'd rather drown myself.
35:47Just relax. I'll save you, buddy.
35:54Hello?
35:56I'm at the gate.
35:58Rehearsal room?
36:00Okay, we'll meet you there.
36:03Okay, alright, bye.
36:05My director friend wants to see me.
36:07Oh, I can go home by myself then.
36:09No, come with me.
36:11But I...
36:12Can you describe the girl you like?
36:17She has black hair.
36:19Neat even backs.
36:21Pretty round eyes and a little bit naive.
36:25And a bit silly.
36:29You look a bit silly too.
36:31Best wishes to you guys.
36:33I like her, but she doesn't know it.
36:36She only takes me as a friend.
36:38She's in love with someone else.
36:40So you could say it's a one-sided love?
36:44Yuran, have you ever done the same?
36:47I have.
36:49What's he like?
36:51He has dark hair.
36:53Wears glasses like you.
36:56He'd drink with me.
36:58And he's a bit silly.
37:00On top of that,
37:02he also likes someone else.
37:04I didn't know you're quite the same.
37:08Do you still like him?
37:11Take a guess.
37:13Hey, goodbye.
37:15Great rehearsal.
37:16Yeah, see you guys tomorrow.
37:18Okay, thank you.
37:20Let's go to a cafe so we can talk.
37:22I can go home so you can talk.
37:24Don't go yet. I'll introduce you to my buddy.
37:26You won't be disappointed.
37:28Come on.
37:29No, wait. Is this a blind date?
37:34This play is called People With Their Palms Up.
37:37The so-called palms up means to ask others for handouts.
37:41Similar to you asking your mom for allowance, like this.
37:45But what our play is trying to say is
37:48to ask for love from someone.
37:50It's about a love square.
37:52It's all one-sided. No happily ever after.
37:55We're going to present it in a month.
37:57We have a theater,
37:59but the actress playing Xiao Fei broke her leg a few days ago.
38:02So we have to stop to find her replacement.
38:07Don't you have backups?
38:09We do, but none are ideal.
38:13I think you're a good fit.
38:15Especially your hair. We don't need to change it.
38:17You look exactly like the girl the main actress secretly admires.
38:20Neat bangs, round eyes.
38:22You bear a close resemblance.
38:24I told you, but you didn't believe me.
38:26I wasn't bragging.
38:28Tang Can is very good.
38:30She's been acting since she was a kid.
38:32At eight, she could cry at will.
38:34Hey, did you watch the drama that I sent you?
38:36I did. It wasn't bad.
38:38It wasn't bad, that's all? It was fantastic.
38:41Although she has no experience in theater,
38:43she's so good at memorizing lines.
38:45At the museum, files that she needed to remember were this thick.
38:49After a week of studying, she could be a docent.
38:51Can you just rest for a while and let us talk?
38:54Fine, okay. Go ahead.
38:56Zhuang Bei's told me everything about you.
38:58Your look is fine, but you still need to audition for the role.
39:04We're on a tight schedule. Read the script first.
39:07The audition's tomorrow. Is that okay with you?
39:11I have to work tomorrow.
39:13Besides, I've decided to quit acting.
39:16This is too sudden.
39:18Plus, I've never taken part in a play.
39:20I may screw it up.
39:22And not to mention your debut is just a month away, so...
39:25Relax. Here.
39:27Check out the script first and think about it.
39:29Get back to me tomorrow by noon. Okay?
39:34Give it a try. No harm in that.
39:43THE FOURTH DAY
40:03Aren't you going to open it?
40:08Do you think I should open it?
40:11I think even if you can't be on camera,
40:14you deserve the spotlight.
40:17Do you think I can do it?
40:18Absolutely.
40:21How should I tell my mom about this?
40:27That's a good question.
40:29All I can say is, ever since you decided to quit,
40:33you've been unhappy.
40:37I really thought my faint happiness fooled everyone.
40:41We all know you're unhappy,
40:43but we don't know how to cheer you up.
40:46Thank you so much for everything.
40:49There's a sentence in The Alchemist I remember.
40:52When you're determined to do something,
40:54the universe conspires to help you.
40:58After I turned 18 a few years ago,
41:01the universe got in my way
41:03when I wanted to pursue my goal.
41:05I won't resign to fate.
41:35THE FOURTH DAY
42:05Maybe the way home is getting longer
42:10Walk slowly, don't look back
42:17I'll stay here
42:21Looking back at you
42:29I miss the old house you used to live in
42:37One day you look for a new start
42:44It's like a leaf flying to a faraway tree
42:53Those days are like yesterday
43:04Goodbye, goodbye, my children
43:10Maybe you'll leave here
43:14Maybe the way home is getting longer
43:20Walk slowly, don't be sad
43:27I'll stay here
43:31Watching you fly away
43:49THE ALCHEMIST
