An emotional scene took place between Sam Dong and Hye Mi, during which Sam Dong revealed, “I didn’t audition because I wanted to go to America. It was because of you and that was all. You’ve always been my music, and my music is still you. That is why I was able to come this far. Music doesn’t exist if you’re not there“.

But Hye Mi encouraged him to keep running towards his dream. “Don’t you remember saying to me that you were going to be so handsome and accomplished that I wouldn’t even worry about you? Well I’m still worried about you. So if this is the end, I’ll keep worrying. So become better“.
