When Myoung-jin suddenly receives news to audition alongside with Jung-woo, he asks Ji-eun to be his accompanist. Myung-jin is surprised to learn that Ji-eun has already been asked by Jung-woo to be his accompanist, and to play the same piece at that, but Ji-eun is unable to refuse their touching offers. Come audition day, Jung-woo and Myoung-jin are both unable to audition, due to Jung-woo’s grand mistake. Shortly after, Jung-woo faints while playing Ji-eun’s composition, “Magic,” and Myung-jin has no choice but to continue in his place. As Myung-jin nurses Jung-woo back to health, he gives him musical lessons. As Jung-woo’s health deteriorates, he gradually begins to learn about the depth of “Magic.” Jung-woo asks Ji-eun about the truth of “Magic,” but she hesitates; the more he wavers from Ji-eun to Myung-jin to “Magic,” Jung-woo waxes cynical. Ji-eun, unable to withstand Jung-woo’s change, runs out, but Jung-woo stops her from doing so. Myung-jin, on the other hand, cannot hide his feelings anymore and kisses Ji-eun…
