[8] Trombonist Choi put together Kingston Rudieska after responding to a post on an Internet bulletin board looking for musicians for a "Jamaican" sounding band.

During their stay, they joined with Japanese ska band The Eskargot Miles to perform at an "Asia United" show.

Yumi (Kim Go-eun) has a new love interest, Ba-bi (Jinyoung), who takes her to an outdoor performance by the band on what is effectively their first date.
