Otherwise, they're identical.

But, even more amazing than

the copying look at that vivacity!

His gifts of observation

and memory are staggering.

There are two birds in the original

but three in the copy.

It looks so lonely and dismal.

Here's a long-lost friend!

Not so long, damn it!

Don't you recognize me?

I heard you were working

for a herbalist

and now you're

in Master Lee's employ.

I've been drifting around

for a while.

- Bring me some wine.

- Coming up! Bring him wine!

- Who are you?

- She's my daughter. Go to bed.

They say you made a perfect copy

of a Chinese painting...

you'd seen only once.

So you're Jang Seung-ub?

I'm meeting a genius. Delighted.

My name is Oh Cheon-suk.

I'm an art dealer.

I'm buying. Bring him food.

These are copies of erotica.

That's what sells best these days.

Even famous artists like Danwon

and Hyewon have done some.

After all, pornography

is a part of life.

I'll wait until I'm famous, then.

Nonsense! Chinese imitations

are unfashionable.

If you paint what doesn't sell,

who'll pay for your rice and wine?

So why look at them?

- Choon-sim, come in.

- Go away.

His talent is in your hands.

Be good to him!

Why are you trembling?

It seems like your first time.

Let me show you.

Mister, this isn't me.

It doesn't look like me.

I hear that copies of my collection

are circulating. You must be the culprit.

You should be studying till your fingers

bleed. Will you waste your life forever?

This is the Footbridge Art School.

Painters and scholars study here,

so behave yourself.

Master Hyesan,

please accept him as your pupil.

He hasn't studied long but

his genius should not be wasted.

So you're the one who copied

all those Chinese paintings.

Let's go in.

Welcome. Please go upstairs.

A bankrupt merchant opened this tavern.

It does good business.

This is Mongam.

And this young man is Doncho.

My name is Songhyun.

I mostly paint "Bird and Flower".

You know Su Tung-po,

the great painter and poet?

He argues that depicting nature

as it is doesn't make it art.

Painting must reflect

the painter's mind.

It's rough for daubers like us!

Paint the thoughts behind the shape...

Go beyond the form

and paint the meaning.

It's our Master's motto:

"Think before you paint."

As his pupil,

you'll have to work hard.

Depth and shadow

must always be equal.

Is that a mouse or a rabbit?

Object and painting must be as one.

Why these slapdash strokes?

Don't push the brush. Pull it!

"Homecoming."

Painting is about more than appearance.

It's about capturing the essence.

See the difference?

You painted a scholar

gazing blissfully at flowers.

Here, what feeling do you get from
