That damn NA Tae-Song!?
Didn't you help him out?
Back in the old days?
But he hasn't called even once?

That ungrateful bastard!
See, that's the kind
of singer we need. One big star!
If we want to hold our heads up
in front of the boss.
Put a lid on it?
That's why we're here,
to find that big catch?
Think of the mouths to feed!
Finding another one isn't the answer.
Mr. CHO.
First, call the sales manager
at Shangri-La Night Club.
Mi-Ok, let's get
pissed tonight, yeah?
Where are
all the pretty girls?
You're so shallow, you know that?
I wouldn't want
you girls to drown, now.
Hey! Did you practice the stuff
I gave you?
You suckers deaf or something?
This is why you're just
second-rate amateurs.
I oughta just...
Just listen to that.
Now that's real music, ya hear?
Yes, sir.
Mr. NA, sir.
Oh, of course.
The music is ready, sir.
Really, sir?
Why, I'd be honored!
I'll wait for you, sir!
I'd die for you, sir.
You better sound
perfect out there.
'Cause I'll be singing on TV
any day now, you suckers!
Susie, Susie, I'm sorry!
That lousy song!
No-talent, Trot imposter!
This way, sir.
We came to see the sales manager.
- Who should I say is here?
- Tell him it's Mr. JANG from Seoul.
Yes, sir.
...let Fate decide.
I just love you, yeah!
Only you!
He can't sing like the real thing,
but he sure dresses like him.
The one, my one
and only companion!
Thanks, the next song is...
the debut performance
of my new single.
