Over the Rainbow (2006)

Episode 12 (1x12)

: 31, 2006

Rex buys Sang-mi a mobile phone and on their way back, asks her if it is Hyeok-ju that she loves. Sang-mi doesn’t answer but Rex smirks knowingly. Hyeok-ju waits for Sang-mi in front of her house. Though he thought about making up an excuse at first, he tells her honestly that he has met Hee-su. Hyeok-ju and Sang-mi have a good time eating noodles and doing other things. Seeing Sang-mi’s heel chafed, Hyeok-ju says he will carry her on his back. Deprived of sleep, Hee-su takes a sedative habitually as she calls her father in New Zealand and leaves a message. Pride Entertainment is bombarded with requests for an interview with Gangster, but Sang-hyeon rejects the requests, saying that they will be no interview since the company is using a mystifying strategy for the time being. After a rehearsal, Hee-su secretly changes the CD for her song with an accompaniment track while the producer is taking a break. Hee-su gets on the stage feeling quite sure of herself. She sings well for a while but her breath suddenly begins to come in short gasps. Watching the scene, Hyeok-ju’s face goes rigid. Footage of Hee-su’s failed live performance floods the Internet and Hee-su apologizes to President Choi for having been so foolishly sure of her ability. Feeling restless, Hee-su keeps taking sedatives and collapses. Upon hearing the news, Hyeok-ju runs to the hospital.
