I...
call my mother "Ms. Nam."
She isn't my birth mother.
But I heard about it...
on my ninth birthday.
My father wasn't home.
He was on a trip with his lover or something.
This is...
the truth about my family,
which people envy.
Soo Ho.
There's something I learned about you.
That even if you are not talking,
you actually are talking.
That's what I came to realize.
That's why, even if you don't talk,
you're still talking in your own way.
I realized that now.
Whenever you write "...",
I think,
"What is this? Is he ignoring me again?"
"What's his problem?" That's how I used to be.
But you...
must have been talking all along.
You said, "Get lost" from the inside.
"Forget it."
"Help me."
Like "Hug me,"
or "I want to cry."
I realized...
silence was one of your methods of communication.
That's why...
when you look at me without saying anything...
Like you are doing...
now,
I want to hug you.
Cry a little more.
(Episode 10)
I can't believe I cried.
Are you serious?
Are you home?
How did you get in?
I always could, I just didn't bother to.
Finding out a passcode isn't that difficult.
I haven't seen you like this in a while.
What about Father?
I'm not sure.
How strange.
Whenever something happens in our family,
it's always just the two of us left behind.
- Were you with Geu Rim... - Rest before you go.
(Song Geu Rim)
(Ji Soo Ho)
Yes?
It's me.
I know.
- About earlier... - About earlier...
You go first.
No, you can go first.
Well...
I thought about it on my way back home.
I think my hands are the problem.
What?
It happened at the school, and just now too.
Why did I do that?
What's wrong with my hands?
You were like that 12 years ago too.
Why do you...
keep hugging me?
It's not like I hugged you a lot...
It was the third time. Why do you keep doing it?
Well...
If there is a shivering puppy,
you want to hold them, don't you?
What?
Well...
It's something like that.
- Am I a dog to you? - No.
I'm not calling you a dog.
It's just...
I just did it.
I just wanted to say...
thank you for that.
Thank you for today.
You should get some sleep.
Don't think about anything for tonight.
Okay.
What's wrong with you, Geu Rim?
What's wrong with you, Soo Ho?
Why do you keep doing that in front of her?
Why do you keep hugging Soo Ho?
We'll take out all of our stars from KBC shows.
What do you mean?
It's so sudden. What do you mean?
However, I'll change my mind...
if you free Ji Soo Ho from the radio show.
You won't see much damage without his radio show,
but the situation is different for us.
For a month, I allowed him to have his way...
and scheduled things around the radio.
The company had to deal with many losses.
I understand,
but replacing him right away is...
Announcer Kim Dong Ju belongs to our agency.
What do you think?
Kim Dong Ju?
Will he DJ a radio?
But...
the program Soo Ho is DJing...
has been making headlines.
Maybe we can agree to pre-record it.
Due to the drama schedule he'll be starring in,
it won't be possible to do both together.
If you give up on Soo Ho,
you'll be guaranteed several stars.
I will continue to support you...
with the stars in our agency.
Also, let's keep this confidential...
until we come to a decision.
Ms. La.
It's been almost a month,
but you haven't given me any reports on Geu Rim.
We still have a lot of time left.
By the way, Ms. Nam.
Jay didn't show up, so we're in trouble.
What are we going to do with today's show?
Ms. La, do you tend to be slow?
Pardon?
What have you done...
in return of my support?
I'm asking you to be responsible.
To be honest,
I tried my best...
I want to see results.
Just make sure to get Geu Rim out.
What is this?
Should I be your doctor or a friend?
Well, eat. Although I didn't prepare much.
You really didn't make much.
Hey, you know...
Do you remember what you said before?
What?
Whether I cry because I'm happy, upset,
or annoyed,
to let you know if I cry.
Did you cry?
Well, what exactly is "crying"?
What does it mean?
Whom did you cry in front of?
That changes what it means.
Whoever it was,
that person understands you very well.
I guess...
you'll be very busy from now on.
Soo Ho.
Hey.
What are you doing here so early?
Will you drive me?
Pardon?
I need to go to the station. Hurry.
What...
But...
Look. The station is much closer...
to your house.
Why did you come to my house...
to tell me to drive?
While we're on the topic,
can you drive me home first?
Sorry?
Since it's close to the station,
drop me off at home first.
You said you needed to go to the station,
but ask me to drop you off at home...
Soo Ho. Have you lost your mind?
I'm late now.
Take this. You can...
use it for a while or forever.
Soo Ho! Why are you giving me this car?
You can keep the gift in the backseat.
What the...
What is he doing?
Is he filming a drama?
I drove the car since I couldn't...
return the keys,
but please take it back right away.
I can't. I'm busy.
Use it for the time being.
What...
What is this?
Was this guy trying to impress me?
Did you get a new car?
It looks nicer than my car.
No, this isn't mine.
Did you finish writing what I told you to?
You refused to write the segment,
and your script stinks.
Give me an excuse.
Stop quoting things.
You did that for the last show, and again this time.
Is quoting books all you can do?
I said to write scripts with your own thoughts.
I'm sorry.
I was a little out of it yesterday.
"I did the best I could"?
"I had no time."
"This isn't so bad."
"Those before me did this."
Do you plan to compromise like that too?
What do you think I did every time I saw...
a writer who didn't do their job right...
and always looked for excuses?
I couldn't hit them, so I made them quit.
I can't work with people who make compromises.
If you make excuses and wing it,
making compromises along the way,
it's the end of your career.
I'll do it again.
I'll give you five hours.
Geu Rim.
I started calling you a "writer".
Okay?
You're insane.
He wants me to organize...
three years' worth of recordings and videos.
While doing that,
I found a video of that lunatic's...
dark past. Want to see it?
Who is this lunatic...
that you keep complaining about him?
I'm busy.
Hey. Do you know how I feel?
This is the only way I can feel better. Understand?
Gosh. Fine, fine.
That lunatic and Ji Soo Ho...
are crazy annoying jerks. I get it.
Don't send me some video of the lunatic.
What did you just say about our Soo Ho?
Hey. You're no friend of mine. Bye!
You come in whenever I'm on the phone.
I'm a crazy annoying jerk? I'm not that bad, am I?
But what did you mean by the lunatic's video?
Do you want to see?
What do I like?
It all sounds like it's about my mom and me.
That's why I like the radio so much.
Hey. Put that away.
What kind of a radio show do you want to make?
That's what I called you here to ask.
You see, I...
don't want to do a show about celebrities.
I want to do a show where the listeners...
are the stars of the show.
You're so sweet.
I'll let you do that.
Hey. Empty promises.
No. We'll take a video as proof.
Fine.
I, Lee Gang,
will make Song Geu Rim my main writer...
and produce that show for her.
Hey.
What is this? Why did it stop here?
What happens next?
Why are you asking me?
What did Gang whisper in Geu Rim's ear?
I... I don't know...
Why do you have so much free time?
You used to show up right before we went on air.
Why do you come to the station so often now?
I'm living out your famous line that the DJ...
and writer should even breathe in sync.
Did you eat?
No. I don't have time to eat.
I have to rewrite my script.
- I'm pressed for time... - Hey.
I saw a video before.
You and Gang got drunk and said something.
What did you say?
Video? What video?
Let go of me.
People will see.
Then let's go talk outside of the station.
I have to write my script.
You and your script.
Is the radio all you care about?
Seriously. You keep popping up everywhere...
and distracting me.
Take this.
(Teen dies in car accident outside KBC studio)
I thought Soo Ho's haters made this up,
but there was some truth to it.
(Teen dies in car accident outside KBC studio)
Wait. Do you think Soo Ho was really involved?
Maybe JH is hiding something.
Maybe they manipulated the media.
We should uncover the truth.
Hey.
Find fun comments posted by listeners.
(Soo Ho's manager)
There are many rumors, but no proof.
There are many mean posts, but no truth.
You're amusing.
You can't get anything from me,
so you don't know how to get back at me.
You're super peeved, aren't you?
My personal life is surprisingly clean.
What have you done for me up to now?
You said you'd start rumors that Soo Ho...
and I are dating, but he didn't show up...
when the reporters were there, and humiliated me.
You said you'd let me do a drama with him,
but there has been zero progress.
Soo Ho will do the drama.
It's in the process.
Really?
Soo Ho said he won't.
But...
he says he will never do it with you.
That's why I warned you...
not to give me an attitude,
and to do your part right.
What did you do that Soo Ho refuses...
to do anything with you?
You're not picking up?
You're really not going to pick up?
(Ji Soo Ho)
(Mister Joon Woo)
You won't pick up either?
The number you have dialed...
Are you going to be like this?
Why won't you take my call?
(Jin Tae Ri)
I heard you were his manager...
since he was very young.
How long has it been?
Did you start before 2006?
Why do you want to know?
I'm fact-checking something about him.
By the way,
do you know he's starting a drama?
I haven't heard anything from him.
It'll be too difficult to do the radio too.
I quit being a manager, so I can't help out.
I'm worried.
Can you help him take care of the show?
Hold on.
Are you saying it's been determined?
Did Soo Ho say so himself?
I have a question about radio shows.
How can I do a good job?
What do you mean "good"?
What does it mean to be "good"?
I want to learn how to DJ from you.
Aren't you here to ask me about Geu Rim?
Pardon?
To me, it looks like you're chasing her...
because you like her.
How did you...
You want to win her heart.
That's why you want to learn about radios.
Am I right?
Radio and life resemble each other.
When you're doing the radio,
show them everything, and trust in them.
Also, hug them.
Then,
the people beyond the speakers...
will show you something too.
They'll trust you too.
And before you know it, they'll be hugging you.
All right. Will you pass this on for me?
Geu Rim...
will fall for you with these.
By the way,
- are all radios the same? - What?
Is it normal for a writer to be stuck 24 hours...
a day with her boss in order to write?
Well, if they're always together,
things like that could happen.
Actually, quite often.
My wife is a writer too.
I saw her all the time during the radio,
and we ended up getting married.
You're a DJ, right?
I'm a DJ too.
A DJ and a writer?
Yes.
Let me ask you one thing.
We're on the same team, so you'll tell me, right?
What is it? Why are you being so serious?
Are you going to continue the show?
Let me rephrase that.
Are you quitting radio for a drama?
No.
Okay.
As we have always done, we'll go by your words.
The number you're calling is not available.
You'll be transferred to the voicemail...
Is he ignoring me?
Why are you ignoring my calls?
What are you doing here?
It's your fault for ignoring me!
Joon Woo.
Help me out just this once.
You know how hard it was for me to get here.
Ms. Nam won't cast you in Soo Ho's drama?
I told you not to make a fuss.
I knew this would happen.
I warned you. A few pictures are nothing...
to someone like her.
What can I do?
I don't want a sponsor to get popular.
I still want to act...
and remain popular.
There is no other way.
I'm powerless. I can't help you either.
I wouldn't have let you get this far...
if I could help it.
You have the recording!
You have the recording of Soo Ho...
saying that Ms. Nam isn't his real mother.
I know you have it.
She never listens to me.
Why won't she pick up?
When you watch dramas,
there are first meeting scenes...
which are important.
They let you see why the drama must exist.
However,
it's not just the stars in the dramas...
who can have these first meetings...
that are significant.
What are you trying to say?
Well...
We meet and part with people.
Our lives are like dramas.
That's why...
I thought it would be good to explain...
about the meaning of meetings in our lives...
I really don't get what you're saying.
Can you? Does it speak to you?
Hey.
How can a DJ say a line the writer doesn't get?
What about the listeners?
Gosh.
Ms. Song. Do you know why I hired you?
Mom.
The clouds look so amazing right now.
The blues, light blues, and whites look like...
paints on a palette floating in the air.
That's why I felt so good while looking at the sky.
What should I do, then?
I better call you, right?
You said so yourself.
I should enjoy one thing a day...
that I can't buy with money.
That's why I looked up...
and the sky was so beautiful.
I wanted to share it with you.
I want to be moved by your writing.
I also believe that you're capable.
Just do it the way you're good at.
You talk and write as if you're painting.
How about writing your emotions that way?
Can you write up something for tomorrow?
Great.
(Why did I hug him?)
Why...
did I hug him?
What does it mean to hug someone?
(Why did I hug him?)
I didn't want him to be sad.
I wanted him to stop crying.
(Why did I hug him?)
[VIU Ver] KBS2 E10 Radio Romance "I Want to Trust You" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(Soo Ho)
Hello?
May we meet for a few minutes?
Why do you always want to meet here?
No one comes here at this hour.
I had something to tell you,
and I didn't know where else to go, either.
You could've come to my place.
You always want me to go over.
It's not like we're dating,
but it's always your place or mine.
Why do we always go to each other's homes?
We can just date.
Go out with me. Date me.
I like you.
Seriously. This guy is really getting to me.
Do I...
get to you now?
Yes,
you do.
So?
Do you dislike me?
No, well...
It's not like I dislike you.
Then do you like me?
Well, that's a bit...
As you saying you like me or dislike me?
I don't...
dislike you.
Let's go.
You wanted to "go"...
to your home?
For instant noodles?
It's yummy. It's tasty. Very tasty.
I told you, didn't I?
A star like me has cameras following me everywhere.
Then did you always...
go on dates at home and in cars?
What do you mean?
Come on. How old are you?
What's wrong with going on dates?
Before you dated Jin Tae Ri,
was it a model? That announcer?
You were...
my one and only.
Let's eat.
Okay.
I said to eat.
(Status Report)
There's nothing on Geu Rim.
I plan to start now.
As you know, timing is key.
Did Soo Ho say anything about the drama?
(Status Report)
Not at all.
If he realizes you're proceeding with the drama,
knowing he's against it,
he'll show many different emotions.
I'm looking forward to that.
I'm still watching.
- She has a guest... - Ms. Nam.
Did you have to do that?
Da Seul is threatening me right now!
Don't lose your cool. Let's talk later.
Forget later. Hey.
If you cause trouble like that,
how am I supposed to fix it?
I caused trouble?
Because of the trouble you caused, we...
I'll go.
Darn it.
Please, stop hurting me already.
You've hurt me...
with Soo Ho already. That's enough!
Soo Ho.
You've changed too much.
You're scaring me.
What?
Do you want a cookie?
When will you finish my script?
Well... That's actually why I'm here.
I got an earful from Mr. Lee...
because of my script earlier.
He said to write how I truly feel.
What bothers me, what gets to me.
Things like that.
However,
all I could think of all day was you.
I didn't realize,
but if I want to enter your home,
I have to open a total of four doors.
And the CEO of JH,
your mother, is crazy scary.
Above all else, you were...
the most annoying person on earth to me.
So, why did I hug you?
Not even once, but twice.
Why did I do it?
"Let's meet up with Soo Ho..."
"and figure out how I feel,"
"and then write again."
That's why I came, but...
But you ended up going on a date with me.
I think...
you like me.
Write honestly with that feeling.
I'll read it.
Also,
after the show ends tomorrow,
go on another date with me.
Yes, sir.
But...
Soo Ho hasn't said exactly...
But...
it looked like his team didn't know either.
Yes, of course, JH's conditions were good.
But I think getting rid of the team...
just because Soo Ho drops out...
is a bit extreme...
Yes, yes. Yes.
I'll call the production director in charge...
and confirm with him. Okay. Okay.
I can never have a moment of peace.
(Station Manager Kang Hee Suk)
Geu Rim?
Hey, Geu Rim.
What's going on?
I need an explanation.
Do you have a blind date?
You're seeing someone, aren't you?
Well... Is it that obvious?
Is it obvious that I dressed up?
It's totally obvious.
Geu Rim wearing a skirt? Come on, now.
What do I do then?
What is it? Who is it?
You wear skirts and wear lipstick...
only when you're dating.
You can't tell anyone.
Promise?
I promise. Who is it?
Well...
- What... - Oh, my gosh!
- What? - What the...
Darn it.
Hey. I liked that script.
Hey.
It isn't him, is it?
Are you insane?
Sorry. I'm not insane. Who is it?
Who is it?
After the show ends tomorrow,
go on another date with me.
Come with me.
You do a show from a hospital...
because the writer is there?
Hey. Are you in some private group?
Come on.
You sounded happy on the phone after it aired.
Why are you complaining?
Also, you got Sung Woo's booth.
Why are you always doing things outside?
Forget it.
What about Soo Ho?
You're sure he isn't doing the drama, right?
You're sure you have him under control, right?
I checked again yesterday with our DJ,
and he says he will do the radio show.
But...
what if he stabs us in the back?
What if he suddenly says he won't do it?
Do you have a plan?
Mr. Kang.
Soo Ho wouldn't do that. Plus,
he's adjusted a lot to the radio.
Is that right?
Of course, he is, Ms. Song.
Hey, Geu Rim. Troublemaker.
Why do problems arise all the time...
whenever you're involved?
Why are you blaming an innocent person?
Are you done? We're leaving.
Let's go.
Gosh. Look at him protect his own.
That punk.
Hey. Do what you want.
The worst that can happen is getting fired.
Come to the office.
You haven't been sticking to your schedule.
You can't do just that one radio show.
You have meetings piled up...
- and... - I want to take a break.
I told you several times already.
- There's a typo. - Where? What?
It should be "OA", but you put "OH".
How did you even come up with this spelling?
- That's correct. - It is not.
This is right.
Mr. Lee. May we speak?
I told you not to put your hand...
on Geu Rim's shoulder or call her "Newbie".
Anyway, don't even make eye contact with her.
What? What can I do...
without making eye contact with my writer?
Don't think about doing anything.
What? Should we quit?
I stopped calling her "Newbie" a while ago.
I'm treating her like a real writer now.
I won't put my arm around her shoulder.
Let's go in. Let's have our meeting.
Just to clarify,
you only said not to touch her shoulder.
We learned a lot about each other the past month.
The DJ learned about me and the writer,
and we learned about you.
However, I don't think this will work.
The hospital and the school...
were spontaneous shows due to circumstances.
It's fine, being successful thanks to you,
but it wasn't something we had planned.
So? What do you want to do?
I want to plan something new.
Then are we having a meeting after the show?
Hey. What about our date?
Let's do that. We don't have time to rest.
Hey. What about my date?
I'd like our DJ to be more involved as well.
How long will you stay in the backseat?
I'm doing the best I can.
Exactly. I'm saying this because that's not enough.
Can you explain in numbers how it is insufficient?
Numbers?
Like ratings, profit from commercials,
or number of comments. Something visible.
Did I fall behind on any of those?
I believe I did my best...
even in unexpected live broadcasts...
that I never once even considered.
Please explain in what way it was not enough.
Yes, it's important for me to open up,
but how about you open your heart and think...
about what you should do with a DJ like me?
That's my opinion.
You're not wrong.
Exactly.
Should I resign?
Hugging a person...
is inviting that person into my world.
It is hoping...
you forget your sadness in my arms.
It is hoping...
you stop crying in my arms.
Okay. 3390...
texted, asking for a nice song...
to help with his insomnia.
9486 says...
he was scolded by his boss and is in a bad mood.
I hope you aren't upset anymore, and sleep well.
Let's listen to the song "Turn on the Radio".
Here.
I'm a fan!
Thank you.
Honestly, this is the truth.
I really, really like you.
It's my birthday. It is your birthday next week.
- Yes. - For my birthday...
- Is it his birthday? - I guess so.
I want to hear you say, "I love you."
I'll record it and listen to it every day.
Please. My name is Cho Sun Hee.
I love...
I love you.
Thank you.
Okay. Happy birthday, Sun Hee.
"Hugging a person..."
"is inviting that person into my world."
"It is hoping you forget your sadness in my arms."
"It is hoping you stop crying..."
"in my arms."
When a person hugs another person,
it means...
you will embrace that person's life.
Ji Soo Ho's Radio Romance...
will say goodbye after listening to...
"Hug Me" by Jung Joon Il.
- Okay. - Good job.
Soo Ho. Why do you keep smiling?
I feel like...
I got a little closer to the radio today.
Let's eat...
and start sleeping here together today.
I can't today.
I have plans.
Then we'll go ourselves.
Are you out too?
What?
So?
You insist on sleeping here?
We have to have meetings tonight,
and I have to work on the segment with Mr. Lee.
Then what time will you finish today?
I don't know.
I'm not sure, but...
it'll probably be late.
It'll be dangerous if it's late,
so take this.
Even if you sleep for one hour, sleep at home.
Soo Ho. I won't accept this.
As I told you before, it's a bit burdensome...
What's so burdensome?
I want to give it to you.
Why is it so burdensome?
Fine. Forget the car. But...
did you look at the gifts I got for you in there?
Did you open a single one?
Can't you look at them?
What I want to give you...
is not a burden, but my heart.
Even if that is inadequate for you,
shouldn't you at least open it?
I'm sorry. I didn't think that far.
I promise to open them.
Soo Ho.
Can't you meet with me tomorrow?
I want to go on a date with you.
Can't you meet with me tomorrow?
I want to go on a date with you.
Hi.
You didn't know at all?
First time hearing it.
Ms. Nam's plan...
is to get you to leave the radio,
disband the team,
and make you do the drama.
I just heard from the planning director.
It's scheduled for tomorrow.
What is?
The announcement that you're doing the drama.
You can't drive in this state.
I'll drive. Get in.
I told you over 100 times that I wouldn't do it.
I said over 1,000 times that I didn't want to.
Why won't you listen to me even once?
Because I still do it,
because I still go if you tell me to,
you must have thought I'd do it again.
But I won't. I will not.
I told you, I signed the contract.
Exactly. Why did you do as you please...
without asking me?
When I said I wouldn't do it,
couldn't you wonder why...
I refused?
Couldn't you wonder that just once?
Please?
Mother.
Soo Ho.
Do you think I wanted to do that?
What is this?
That's what I'd like to ask.
What have you been doing?
Do you know how hard it was for me...
to fix the problems you were causing with her?
- Who... - What's important is...
the fact that...
if I have it, someone else does too.
If you don't behave,
all of this will fall on Geu Rim.
I stopped it the first time.
I can't guarantee if it happens again.
"If you want to protect Geu Rim,"
"do as I say."
You really are incredible.
I didn't think that far.
Don't ignore the weight of the life you chose.
It's at 6 o'clock tomorrow.
The person you have reached...
is unavailable. Please...
(Soo Ho)
Did you hear? Ji Soo Ho is leaving the radio show.
I heard the team is being disbanded.
What?
I told you.
I told you that I was close to the CEO of JH.
I heard it was because of the drama.
Why can't he do both the drama and radio show?
The drama is being filmed in another country.
If they're spending that much money,
would you do radio? Would you?
What happens to Geu Rim?
What about me? What happens to me?
Mr. Lee. Geu Rim.
I hear Soo Ho is leaving the radio show.
- What? - Soo Ho is quitting!
What...
(Announcement: Who Am I)
(Ji Soo Ho)
(Geu Rim)
Please help me.
I won't talk about doubling your salary.
Can you help me?
Soo Ho. What's your deal?
You said you weren't doing it.
You said you'd talk to me first.
What are you doing?
Don't you even know where you're headed?
I never should've started this show with you.
You can't even keep your word.
You don't just act what they write for you,
you live your life as they write as well.
Please look this way.
(Announcement: Who Am I)
Please look this way.
Thank you.
We'll get started soon.
Soo Ho. What's going on?
Are you really quitting the radio show?
You didn't say anything last night.
Why won't you pick up?
(Are you really quitting the radio show?)
What did Soo Ho say?
We don't need someone like him anymore.
We'll do it without him.
It's my fault for telling you to scout him.
It's okay.
I'll take full responsibility.
Is Soo Ho quitting our radio show?
If I say I'll do the radio show, will you not cry?
I'll do the radio show.
Let's do the radio show.
I like you.
(Announcement: Who Am I)
Thank you.
(Soo Ho)
I told you not to screen my calls.
I know what you want to say right now.
I know how you felt while waiting for me.
You do not.
How do you know how I feel?
How could I not?
You think I'm quitting the radio show...
and stood here, hating me.
But...
I'll do it.
I'll keep doing it with you.
You just have to trust me.
I want to trust you.
I do.
Then trust me.
