Post by bunniefuu »

If you don't want to drive a taxi forever,

you should also follow your dream.

Be a composer here.

SIANG THONG CO., LTD.

I'll take you to grooming.

I want to bring out the best in you.

Congratulations.

Your music video

is banned on every station.

Huh?

What?

PREVIOUSLY

If it can't be broadcasted,

sell it underground.

What would you think

if I recruited Kaeota to work with us?

Does your interest in hiring Kaeota

come from her singing voice

or from her music video?

Both.

This singer is marketable

if her talent is polished

in the right way.

Your song made her popular,

so I believe you know

more than anyone how to do that.

Well

You see,

Kaeota and I grew up together.

Her parents are the ones who raised me.

If you're asking how talented Kaeota is,

I can confidently say

that she is exceptional.

She's also very determined.

Exceptional and determined,

that's what we want in our singer.

You're our songwriter.

I trust your insight.

Thank you, Saoek.

No problem.

Okay, you may go.

Okay.

Ah, Saoek.

I heard that our company's singers

love the songs you have written for them.

Keep up the good work.

Of course.

I'll take my leave.

Would you like me to contact Kaeota now?

M SOUND CO., LTD.

Okay. Yes, I understand.

Ruined.

Everything is ruined.

Do you know how many gigs we've lost?

Seventeen.

And because of what?

Because of this crazy song of yours!

I'm shocked though.

How on earth did the music video CDs

flood the market as pirated CDs?

You need to find out

where the leak came from.

Could be the recording room,

the station,

or even the director or the assistants.

What a mess.

We lost all the good gigs too.

There are still some modeling jobs,

aren't there?

What are you even saying?

Do you really think

I would let you model for a porn magazine?

It's not how you should be perceived!

So what?

Do you want me to sing in a turtleneck,

standing still like a wooden doll?

Stop being sarcastic.

Didn't I tell you that

those clothes and dance steps

would fail?

I told you since the start.

Don't blame her. It was my doing.

I chose everything myself.

So I will take responsibility.

Oh, you will?

Are you sure?

All right.

Then I order you

to stop accepting gigs for three months.

-You cannot do this.

-Why not?

I have the right.

Check your contract

if you have a problem with it.

You may go now.

Reflect on what you have done.

We can talk later.

So how did our CDs get into the market?

Miss That, do you know how?

Kaeo, wait for me.

It's only the music video that got banned.

Instead of using this opportunity

to make it even more famous,

he bans it himself.

Hmph, I told you.

The pirated tapes on the black market

got more people to know about you,

but the problem is

the company can't profit from it.

Actually, there're many other ways

to make money.

Enough of all this.

I don't want to hear about it anymore.

Answer the phone.

Oh, it's an unknown number.

Answer it.

Greetings, who would you like to speak to?

Who are you?

Kaeo.

It's from Siang Thong Music.

What, Siang Thong Music?

The biggest record company in the country.

-Give me the phone.

-Here.

Greetings, I'm Kaeota.

Of course, it's an honor.

See you later.

-Sis!

-Why did they call you?

They want to recruit me!

Really?

My goodness, this is amazing!

Oh, wait a second.

Isn't the owner of that company

Mr. Nop's father?

Then would Mr. Nop

be willing to let you go?

If you go, won't Mr. Nop feel heartbroken?

That's great.

Then, Mr. Nop will realize

that he should have prioritized me

over Khwan.

A three-year contract?

Do you have it with you now?

Let Suwit take a look at it.

I heard that right now,

Nop is publicizing the new singer

in place of the previous singer

who has been suspended.

She just released her first album.

I suppose it's normal to pamper her.

If he doesn't place importance on you,

why do you need

to place importance on him?

Kaeota can cancel the contract.

No need to wait.

Suwit has overseen

countless contracts in his career.

Siang Thong never makes mistake.

However

Throw it at him.

This You're willing

to throw such a large sum at him?

Does this mean you know that

I can bring you

much more profit than this number?

It's up to you

whether you'd like to join the more

systematic and professional workplace.

M SOUND CO., LTD.

Five million?

In exchange for terminating the contract?

Kaeo, how could you do this?

It's obvious, Thin.

He has money.

He can buy her, so he did.

It's not personal.

It's transactional.

Thank you for building my career.

However, I don't want to be

a stunted plant in a jar.

Not only is there barely any fertilizer,

but there's also another tree

fighting over nourishment.

I want to grow.

I hope you understand.

Life must go on.

Thank you for everything.

This is goodbye, Thin.

Thank you very much, Mr. Nop

for making today possible.

You trust me, don't you?

That I can make you famous.

I trust you, Mr. Nop.

What about you?

Are you sure about me?

If we share the same dream,

I'll grow with you, Mr. Mahannop.

Kaeota wants to be a famous singer,

and Siang Thong

is competitive.

He's so wealthy already.

Why is he bullying his own son now?

Your mom must feel devastated from above,

especially by his

throwing five million at you.

Essentially, this five million came

from my mom's investment.

Then what if you

think of this five million

as a gift from a father to his son?

Khwanchai, you don't understand him.

He has cursed our company since day one.

He's afraid that we will overshadow

his golden brainchild.

What he is attempting to convey

by throwing money at me is

that I will never win.

You're going to rampage through

your dad's firm, aren't you?

I'm with you.

Don't worry, I won't go.

I won't play his game.

I'll just go to some quiet place to think.

I've seen Mr. Nop this stressed.

I knew that someday,

Nop's father would hinder him.

But why do they hate each other?

Back then, Nop was around eight years old.

I'm sorry, Nop.

His father was busy with work,

so he went to the beach with his mom.

They had to come back early

because his mom got sick.

But when they arrived,

they saw a woman's shoes.

Are these your shoes, Mom?

His mom immediately realized

that his father

Dear!

-was sleeping with another woman.

-Yani!

Why are you back early?

Why did you do this to me?

You opened your company with my money

to take a singer to our bed?

This is who I am.

b*stard!

You dare to slap me?

No.

So his mom fell ill.

I will take care of you, Mom.

Okay, dear.

A short time later, she passed away.

He didn't want to see his father again,

so he left home.

He decided to stay with his mom's family

and never went back to that house again.

I met him when he was in boarding school.

He transferred abroad soon after that.

To the left, more.

Yes, that's perfect.

What's this all about, Khwan?

You make us organize the place

like we're housekeepers.

What're you planning now?

I just want to make the office

look livelier.

Ah, Thin, what time will Mr. Nop come in?

He didn't come in with you this morning?

No, I didn't spend the night at his condo.

He didn't answer his phone either.

I haven't talked to him

since he angrily stormed out that day.

Hey, I have an idea.

Hey, Nop.

Where are you now?

Why didn't you answer your phone?

What "um"? Can't you talk more coherently?

What? All right, I won't bother you then.

Jeez.

What happened?

Why did you talk to him like that?

"What happened?" He's drunk!

He likely drank last night

and then kept drinking this morning.

I'll go see him.

Um, let me go with you.

Um, what about us?

Do we have to go as well?

It's all right.

You can take care of things here.

You can close the office in the evening

and call a taxi to get home, okay?

Oh.

Okay.

I'm going with you.

Watch your step and make yourself at home.

Hey Nop!

Mr. Nop!

-Nop!

-Mr. Nop!

-What happened?

-Mr. Nop!

The glass cut his arm.

What? Hey, Nop, are you all right?

Are you okay, Nop?

-Help me sit him up.

-Nop!

Be careful.

-Slowly.

-Mr. Nop.

Nop.

Khwanchai?

How are you feeling?

SIANG THONG COMPANY LIMITED

Clap your hands to the determination

of the newest artist

of Siang Thong Company.

I hope you won't leave me hanging here.

Our company never does that.

We are always ready

to support our capable artists.

That is our principle.

Organize a team for Kaeota immediately.

Then submit the marketing plan to me.

Of course, sir.

We need to strike while the iron is hot.

May I choose a song myself?

We have our own system here.

Everything is done in a meeting,

starting with brainstorming,

producing, and then promoting.

And don't worry, we are a big company.

We have sufficient media power

to guarantee your success.

Ask stylist Senmai

to adjust Kaeota's image.

Yes, sir.

I need to adjust more?

I won't need to make your clothes anymore

because you're going to have

that stylist Sen or whatever.

Come on, I'll try asking them again.

If they reject you,

I'll employ you.

Really? You're so good to me!

Oh, thank you!

Done.

I was a little drunk last night.

Oh, I don't think so.

You poured alcohol

directly into your veins.

Hey, it's too far from my heart.

Anyway, thank you, Khwan.

You did such a great job.

It looks professionally done.

You're lucky the wounds are superficial.

Don't let the wounds get wet though.

Bandaging them will help them heal.

You're back with us then?

Yeah.

No use getting so angry.

I'd better work hard.

Right, Khwan?

Right.

You still have me.

I won't leave you.

I am a grateful person.

I don't mean

you're ungrateful or anything.

You shouldn't let

the painful incident from your past

burden your mind.

No, I just told her

what she needed to know.

I'd better take care of myself.

I'll take my leave.

-Let me

-It's okay, my legs aren't injured.

Thanks.

After you.

COMPLEX SUITE

Don't worry about him.

He will be back

to his normal self tomorrow.

-Oh, Thin.

-Huh?

I forgot my phone in Mr. Nop's room.

Can I go back to get it?

Of course. I'll wait downstairs.

Do you remember where the parking lot is?

-Yes.

-Great. Take this.

It's his room's key card.

See you in a bit.

I see. So this is why Mr. Nop

is taking special care to support you.

You have free access to his home.

Hey, you betrayed him

and ran off to another company,

and you still dare to live with him?

Didn't you see? I already moved out!

The room is available.

You can move in now.

No matter how many times

you go in and out of his room,

no one will find out that

this is how you became a famous singer.

There's no such thing at M Sound.

Though in Siang Thong, there is.

If staying there is not as you expect,

you should do as you've told me to do.

That's my advice.

What happened to your hand?

It's only a small cut,

nothing to be worried about.

Today, I came to return the key card,

just in case you want

to give it to someone else.

If you're talking about Khwan,

I don't need it.

She already has a place to stay.

Of course, she has.

You always love

gifting new things to new people.

From now on,

you can indulge her

to your heart's content.

It depends on our small firm's finances.

I never have an ulterior motive though.

Work is work. Friendship is friendship.

Does it mean that even after this,

we can still continue to be friends?

And that is what you cannot find

in a big company.

Its president is not a true friend.

If you can bring them profits,

they'll be your friend.

If you can't, they'll cut you off.

That's what I want as well.

It's my life, and I must carry on.

I want to compete with singers

from all over the country.

I want to succeed

and be the center of attention.

The main point is

I have to compete with your singer.

We are competitors after all.

Good luck.

You too.

The outside world is a deadly place,

so be careful.

I have something else to share.

It's about Khwan.

Khwan already has a lover.

They're childhood sweethearts.

You probably know him.

His name is Saoek.

Do Re Mi Fa

Sol La

Please come in.

Am I interrupting?

It's all right. You have perfect timing.

We're testing her vocal range.

Kaeota, this is Mr. Saoek.

He's our new songwriter

with golden fingers.

Mr. Rong favors him.

Our singers all want

to get their hands on his songs.

Kaeota, let's try again.

You might even get one of his songs.

-Ready?

-Yes.

Do Re Mi

Fa Sol

SIANG THONG MUSIC CO., LTD.

Ek.

Ek.

It's not too late for me

to apologize, is it?

If you

would like to talk about the songs,

there are other songwriters

in the company.

Won't you write a song for me?

I am in the same company as you are now.

It depends on the company's decision.

Whoever the board

chooses to give my songs to,

I will obey that decision.

But a song custom-made

for a singer's inner self

is way better, isn't it?

Just like

the song you wrote for me.

Excuse me.

I have

a meeting with Mr. Rong.

Geez, you haven't changed

the bandage at all.

Do you want it to get infected?

Do you want to have your hand amputated?

Don't you have a rehearsal today?

No.

Then why don't you take this time to relax

or find something useful to do?

What? I'm taking care

of our company's president here.

I'm doing something useful.

Khwan.

May I ask you a question?

Well

When you signed the contract

with M Sound,

why didn't you ask Saoek

to write you a song?

Maybe it's because

he doesn't know me enough

to write a song for me.

He got you into the industry though.

He's from the same town

and signed you up for the singing contest.

Let me ask.

You

like Saoek, don't you?

I'm not stupid. It's obvious.

Yes.

I did.

Not anymore though.

You need to understand.

With my personality, if I hate someone,

I cannot love them ever again,

not even when they're my siblings.

You're pretty terrifying.

Will there be a day you come to hate me?

What could you even do

to make me hate you?

I believe that

you and me

do and will get along very well.

Like lifelong soulmates?

No, more like

a philharmonic orchestra.

I don't want to talk to you.

I will put these away and go home.

M SOUND CO., LTD.

Absolutely, no problem.

Yes, thank you so much.

All right, goodbye.

How's the market survey?

Ah, Khwanchai's sales are great,

but Kaeota's sales are also

Note the number down separately, okay?

Send it to me when you're done.

I have to talk

to the accounting office, all right?

I'll leave it to you.

He's drowning in work.

He's probably even forgetting

his own birthday.

It's today?

Yes.

His birthday? This is important.

Let's party!

-Now.

-That's right. We need to unwind.

We siblings will take care of this.

Step carefully. Don't slip now.

Where're you taking me?

Don't swing your arms around.

Here.

What're you scheming now?

-Surprise!

-Surprise!

-Yay!

-Yay!

Ah, where's Khwan?

Happy Birthday to you

-Yay!

-Yay!

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to you

-Yay!

-Yay!

-Come on, time to cut the cake.

-Wait a second.

May I sing to the singer and dancers here?

-Wow!

-Wow!

-I love this!

-Make way for me, please.

-Turn on the music. Yes!

-Nice!

-Go wild, Mr. Nop.

-Do it!

-Your dancers are ready!

-Wow!

Please tell me, just a little hint

My beauty, while you're at home

What food do you eat

-That makes you so beautiful?

-It shows how we should adapt.

-You're as beautiful as an angel

-What is that one? The first one.

-I'd like to give you my love

-We will oversee

May I love you?

Everything about you looks delicate

A radiant angel

When you glance at me

I feel nervous

Do you have a boyfriend, sweetheart?

Please tell me the truth

Whoever is your partner

Is the luckiest man in the world

-Do you have a boyfriend?

-And the costume

-Appease my curiosity

-Nice!

-Are you interested in being with me?

-Regarding the costume team, I want

What food do you eat

That makes you so gorgeous?

-The eternal goddess

-For example, the accessories

What food do you eat

That makes you so delicate?

The peerless beauty

-I meet your eyes when you glance at me

-Nice!

-My imagination runs wild

-Wow!

-My mind submerges in a daydream

-Feed him!

I'm on cloud nine

-Yay!

-Yay!

Thank you.

You're amazing

to have heard them out for so long.

Not really.

I have to do my job.

Listening to their opinions is essential.

You're still angry at me, aren't you?

You should go home. It's late.

Where is That?

She already went home at eight.

She was tired.

Care for a drive?

It's okay, I can call a taxi.

I'm not saying I'm gonna drive you home.

I'm telling you to drive me home.

Thanks for the drive.

It's late. You should go back.

You don't you want to live

in a better neighborhood?

Why would I?

You still care too much

about external things.

Outward appearances

are transient.

Transient?

Do you know what I had to deal with

when I arrived in Bangkok all alone,

driven out of our town?

I lived on the streets.

My things were stolen. I was molested.

I had to be a café singer

and get molested again.

I was drugged and barely survived!

Did you know that? Of course not!

And now, you are berating me

for indulging myself,

for being shallow.

I'm only an ordinary person

who has survived long enough

so that you can see

my superficiality today.

Kaeo.

If you want to hate me,

that's your own decision.

Oh my!

Kaeota, you're so gorgeous!

Among all the album covers, I tell you,

this will be the most awesome one!

What awesome? There's nothing fashionable

about my clothes or my hair.

This won't do, I'm telling you.

Okay, let's change everything then.

Why are you just standing there?

Get some new clothes!

-Yes.

-Yes, change!

And hurry up!

After six months of anticipation,

Miss Kaeota has returned

with a sexy appearance

and has released a new song

under Siang Thong Company.

Now, let us give it a listen.

KAEOTA - SIANG THONG

I'll take this one.

Two hundred baht.

Sorry, I never take it to heart

Sorry, my heart is unshakable

It's fine because whatever you do

The one getting disturbed won't be me

-"A Tiny Matter" by Miss Kaeota?

-Whoever you

Want to go on a date with

You can

It won't ever bother me

Do whatever you want

No need to hide

I don't care

I don't mind

It's a tiny matter, my heart is calm

It's insignificant, minuscule

It's a tiny matter

No need to be surprised

I never want to poke my nose into things

It's so pointless

All right, I'm sorry

That I don't feel sorry

-Go away, it's time to leave, so hurry up

-Wow.

This is good, so don't be dramatic

Let's end it all and save each other

-It's a tiny matter, my heart is calm

-Wow.

It's insignificant, minuscule

It's a tiny matter

No need to be surprised

I never want to poke my nose into things

It's so pointless

It's a tiny matter, my heart is calm

It's insignificant, minuscule

It's a tiny matter

Being a big company has its benefits.

They've produced a music album

in only six months.

And to be broadcast

on every station like this

Mr. Rong must be spending a lot of money.

Saoek is their songwriter.

He's good at what he does.

Yeah.

Good songs are always popular.

You are a true opportunist, Kaeo.

We should practice feeling happy for her

because when we release a new song,

it will take the country by storm.

Congratulations

to the man with a new home.

How did you know?

Someone in Siang Thong told me that

you were organizing your new home,

so I asked them for your address

to come visit you.

Seeing this painting of a lotus

reminds me of when

you picked lotus stems for me.

I picked them for Phanna actually.

Congratulations

on your success.

And more importantly,

I'd like to thank you for working hard

and making my songs so famous.

I'd like to thank you as well

for giving me the chance.

My amazing man.

I'm busy. I have to go. See you later.

Kaeo.

Wow.

Why are there only vegetable dishes?

Are you

planning to toast with vegetables?

What do you want to eat then?

If it's steak, lasagna, or pizza,

I can't cook those.

That's not it.

I mean you could have said things like

"I want you to have a healthy meal

full of vitamins and calcium"

or something like that.

Those are merely empty words,

only good for selling products.

This is homemade food,

so it has to be sincere.

"Has to be sincere"?

Everything looks appetizing.

Mr. Nop, please take a seat.

There's another dish I've prepared.

Okay.

Here.

Lotus stems in coconut milk soup.

In the past,

Ek always gave me lotus stems,

so I always got to eat this dish.

You don't need to have

this soup or whatever from now on.

I don't care

whether someone gave it to you

because I want to have

your stir-fried vegetables.

And I will come here every day,

so you can always cook for me, all right?

It's surreal.

Who would have thought that

a record company owner

would help me wash dishes.

What? We eat together,

so we have to clean together.

I won't let you do all the work.

My mom taught me that a man

needs to take care of a woman.

Is washing dishes included in that phrase?

I thought being good

at making money was enough.

Mr. Nop?

Khwan.

I like you.

If you let me,

I will take care of you.

Okay?

We will succeed together

you and me.

Yes.

Miss Kaeota,

the famous singer of Siang Thong Company.

I want this person to be our presenter.

Tell the management team to take this job.

It's time to make a CD.

KHWANCHAI - M SOUND

If you have a lover,

you will lose your popularity.

Before doing anything,

consider whether it's worth it!
