“Was your reply to my confession also a lie?” she adds. He’s stunned that she knows, while she exclaims that she could have hated him her whole life because of it. Hae-ra turns that right around on him-he lied to her about taking Se-chan’s place in the idol contract.
If anybody had the right to know about Se-chan’s list or to do anything about it, it was him. How could she keep the bucket list from him? “ I’m his brother!” he says, not some stranger who comes out of nowhere. Hae-ra chases Se-jong out, and he turns on her angrily. When she asks when he’s flying back to the U.S., he asks for a favor-there’s something he wants to do for Se-chan first. Ray just sits there quietly, and Mom asks him to understand Se-jong’s shock. “That bucket list-I was the only one who didn’t know,” Se-jong says. Hae-ra explains that Ray came all this way to see that bucket list, and that just adds to the hurt.
Se-jong says bitterly, “So I’m not his real brother, and he is?” Gah, you couldn’t give a guy a little warning? Se-jong looks up in astonishment at Ray, and struggles to process as his mother tells him that Se-chan is still her son and his brother-but he’s also Ray’s brother. Mom and Hae-ra exchange looks before they bring out the visitor. He exchanges a shy greeting with Hae-ra, then notices his mother setting an extra place at the table. The next day is Se-jong’s birthday, and Hae-ra helps his mother prepare dinner. The two scenes form a sort of duet-from-the-beyond, separate but together, and Hae-ra cries a little as she finishes. (They’re dancers from Mnet’s dancing survival show Dancing 9, Choi Soo-jin and Lee Seon-tae.) Hae-ra picks Lim Ki-hoon’s “ The Day We Met,” a song she used to sing with Se-chan it’s also the song that Ray watches his twin singing in one of the video clips Se-chan recorded. Hae-ra gets a temporary gig playing music at a dance studio, and the dancers ask her to play anything while they warm up. Their reaction doesn’t change his mind, though, and he promises to get his part down perfect for the next rehearsal. The Impact idols practice hard, and are peeved when Se-jong says he has to miss rehearsal tomorrow for a personal reason. Since he has no place to go, Mom agrees to put him up until he returns to the States. But Ray heard about Se-chan’s bucket list from Henry and wants to see it. She treats Ray with cool civility, telling him to go back home I guess it must be too painful having him around. Ray is saddened to have come too late to meet his brother, and Mom assures him that Se-chan grew up well. His birth mother died soon after childbirth, and so Mom took in Se-chan as her own. right away, the younger twin wasn’t taken because he fell ill. An employee brings another baby to her for help nursing it, because while his elder twin was adopted to the U.S. Mom seems to understand immediately what’s going on, and her mind flashes back to December of 1989: She’s very pregnant when she arrives at the single mothers’ center, and gives birth to Se-jong. They take Ray home to hear the story, and he explains that when Henry sent him that photo of Se-chan three years ago from the Superstar K auditions, he was so shocked that he had to come to Korea. Jaws drop when the new guy turns to greet them, introducing himself as Ray Kim Hanson. All goes black, and sometime later they’re at the police station, where the moms arrive and fuss over Hae-ra.
Then we’re back at the fight in the alley, where Se-chan’s doppelganger is knocked out by pickpockets. As soon as he steps inside the door, he sees Hae-ra throwing her arms around the new guy who bears his twin’s face, and the two guys catch each other’s eyes in a mini-stare-down.

Ulala Session – “Family” from the Persevere, Gu Hae-ra OST Īudio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Gu Hae-ra has what I loved about that show, minus what I didn’t. The show feels like Monstar but with more purpose and focus, which is wonderful because I loved Monstar until it lost its way and kind of meandered to a weak finish. The drama isn’t quite as bubbly as it was at the outset, but it’s thankfully also not completely moody either (and in fact has a lot of laugh-out-loud, good-natured comedy). It’s settled into its rhythm now-feel-good with a touch of melancholy-as the camaraderie really starts to come together, and it’s such fun to watch this diverse mix of personalities gel into a team, one where every character feels real and heartfelt. This show makes me feel so many emoooootions, it’s great. 50 FebruJanuPersevere, Gu Hae-ra: Episode 4 by javabeans
