Ms. Yun.
This is the new chairman.
It's nice to meet you, Ms. Yun.
Hey! Yun Jiwon.
Yun Jiwon!
I heard Ms. Yun pinched the chairman.
Awesome, where?
I heard she slapped him.
Didn't she kick him in the shin? That's what I heard.
Ms. Yun hit the new chairman and he needs four weeks of treatment.
Is she going to end up going to jail?
- No way. - Hey.
- Good morning, Ms. Yun. - Good morning.
Yun Jiwon.
Hey, Yun Jiwon!
Hey!
Hey! You!
Hey!
Doofus!
Open the door!
Move aside.
Are you okay, sir?
Can't remember? Who's she kidding?
Jiwon, are you going to be much longer?
Your father wants you to stop by the hospital.
She remembers everything.
What are you going on about?
Are you even listening to me?
I've been listening to you say the same thing for the past 20 minutes.
If you treat those herbal sedatives like candy, they'll do more harm than good.
In fact, if you ate candy like that, you'd be in big trouble.
Mind your own business.
When I told you to go, you made a huge fuss.
And you pulled that stunt in the middle of the night.
What are you doing?
I'll do it, Father.
What?
The chairman of Dokmok High School. I'll do it.
What?
I will do it.
Revenge.
Are you trying to give your parents a heart attack?
You said you wouldn't go!
You said you wouldn't go, you punk!
Gyeongtae!
Oh no, what do we do? Oh, honey.
I'm sorry.
How could I know you would slip like that?
I don't know why you changed your mind.
Since you agreed to lead the golf course project,
I appointed you as chairman.
But the school isn't important.
So don't get distracted, okay?
Okay.
We have to do all we can.
In order to increase our college acceptance rate.
However, our gifted program
was abolished after much discussion with the former chairman.
I understand your concerns about the harm it might cause,
but it is effective if managed properly.
You're totally correct.
Our higher level students' parents have been kicking up a fuss,
asking why we're the only school without a gifted program.
While that is true,
there is also the problem of kids feeling left out.
It could be seen as discriminatory.
Stop talking nonsense.
Wouldn't it be better to call it a privilege?
Students who study hard and do well
earn the right to a better environment and instruction.
Then I'll discuss it with the Creative Club and Careers Club
and get something started.
You mean the Creative Experience Club?
Yes, it will have to be done in the form of a club.
So the Creative Club will take care of everything, right?
Please schedule a meeting with the relevant teachers.
I will attend too.
Sorry? You yourself?
Why…
Please make sure everyone attends without fail.
Sure.
Emergency meeting in progress.
Chairman Pinch is on the warpath. He's looking for you.
Is that lunatic out of his mind?
Why would he show up to a faculty meeting?
I mean, why would he even show up at school?
How can he strut about in front of me?
He really is a crazy bastard.
ONE MONTH PRIOR
Ms. Yun, are you okay?
Oh, yes, Mr. Hong.
I'm not drunk at all.
I have something to tell you.
I'm over here.
Mr. Hong.
I'm really not drunk.
I have something to say to you.
Okay.
I
like you.
Would you like to date?
Me?
Yes.
I like you.
I'm sorry.
Ms. Yun,
could you give me some time?
If it's not one thing, it's another.
You must be here for the meeting.
How have you been, Ms. Yun?
Why haven't you dropped by the health office this semester?
I've been a bit busy.
Aren't you going to go in?
Exactly. Why aren't you joining us, Ms. Yun?
I was just about to go in.
So, the first thing you want to do is revive the gifted program?
Well, as the new chairman,
is it wrong to care about students' grades?
Not at all.
Look at the college acceptance rate.
It's fallen, fallen, fallen.
We've been the lowest in the province for five years.
We're not in Seoul, yet you've only collated results for the top five.
I know. And why do you think that is?
Because that's the most important.
This school doesn't focus on things like that.
Do you know how hard it was to convince parents
to do away with the gifted program?
Wow, so you did away with it despite it being popular with parents?
Let's have a proper discussion about it.
Ms. Yun, do you think I'm here to discuss this?
Prepare me a detailed action plan by next week.
You will be in charge of this club.
- Hey! - Gosh, Ms. Yun!
It's fine. Shall we leave it here for today?
You…
Oh, Ms. Yun, I'd like you to join me for lunch.
I do believe
you owe me an apology.
- Is he crazy? - Calm down.
I thought it was a school legend,
but you really were the mad dog of Dokmok High.
Ever since I started working here, I've never seen you yelling like that.
How can I put this? You are a mad dog,
but you're more of a Chihuahua.
While the chairman is a well-trained…
He's a Doberman.
He's no joke.
"Do you think I'm here to discuss this?"
He's such a jerk.
Exactly my type.
Crazy bastard.
Does he think being chairman makes him God?
It kind of does. He is the chairman.
The former chairman was such a gentleman.
He discussed everything with us.
And he really cared about the kids.
He was one of a kind.
Most chairmen are exactly like this.
Someone who is as mean as that
is exactly my type!
What does he even know about this place?
The position of chairman
is for someone who knows nothing to do whatever they want.
And you keep talking about getting rid of gifted classes,
but hasn't your class president's mom been calling you since vacation?
Can't you just take my side?
Shall I? Shall I get revenge for you?
Shall I go and latch on to him
and become a stain on his life?
Get a grip, Sua.
Do you know how spineless and mean he is?
He is a scumbag who thinks of no one but himself. Okay?
Hey, don't be taken in by his pretty face! Okay?
A pretty scumbag.
Just my type.
Have a nice lunch.
Okay.
"Join me for lunch"?
What a joke.
Did he think if he asked me to lunch,
I'd run along meekly, saying "Yes, Mr. Chairman"?
You've got to be kidding.
Grandpa, I'm home.
Is that you, Jiwon?
Huh?
Of course. Who else would it be?
Grandpa, I'm hungry.
Oh, my goodness.
Hello.
Why did you spray him with water?
Well, I was cleaning the yard when he came in all of a sudden.
I was so surprised that the hose jerked in his direction.
It wasn't on purpose.
Anyway, well done.
But you should've dried his clothes and sent him off.
Why let him rummage through the fridge?
I heard he's the one in charge of the golf course.
But, after chatting with him for a bit,
I can see he's not a scoundrel like his father.
I can't stand the sight of him, but I thought I'd try talking to him.
Plus, he said he would help prepare lunch.
Doesn't that feel cold?
It's fine.
After everything that's happened, lunch--
Shouldn't you be going?
No.
I'm happy to eat whatever you give me.
For lunch.
Come and join us.
You're not the hired help. You're supposed to be an adult.
You must be very busy with work.
And now you've taken on this bothersome role.
No, I still have a lot to learn.
You might lack the qualifications,
but you sure have a talent for playing Mr. Big Shot.
I see she hasn't changed a bit.
Oh, is that so?
You've gotten very old.
And completely let yourself go.
Let's not start.
That matter I mentioned earlier--
My father is determined to build his golf course.
What about you?
It's not up to me to decide.
Also, I don't think it's appropriate to reveal my personal opinion.
As you know, it's not been that long since we took over the foundation.
Nothing has been decided.
There's not much I can say.
Oh, I see.
Let me share the opinion of a humble old man.
I know your father has a long-held grudge.
But I'm not going to sit by and watch this town be ruined.
I will gather people,
and if necessary, appeal to institutions and the media.
I plan on protecting this town.
I understand what you're saying.
Right, dig in.
Hoseok's daughter, Jiwon.
So? She and Jiwon fought?
It seems like they argued.
Those two have been at odds since they were young.
Well, my son is the chairman.
How can a teacher stand up to him?
Of course, I will give her a warning.
She's always been wild.
Gyeonghun, you went to school with Hoseok and did business with him.
She must be almost like a daughter to you.
Right?
It hurts me to see.
Still, put her in her place.
Yes, sir.
How is public opinion around town? About the golf course.
It's still abuzz.
The locals have not yet coalesced around a single position.
Keep an eye on things.
I need to get some rest.
Oh, and let's have an inauguration ceremony.
He said he wasn't planning to hold one…
Never mind what he says.
Arrange something grand and flashy.
I'm going to invite everyone in town.
So make sure it's very fancy.
Prepare something to totally break…
Yun Jaeho's spirit.
Okay, see you later.
Oh, let's have a drink when I get out of here.
Sure.
Get well soon, Mr. Chairman.
Come on, man.
Don't call me Mr. Chairman.
Just call me brother.
Yes, Brother. I'll be on my way.
Okay, see you soon.
Patient Lee Wonjung.
EMERGENCY ROOM
Why are you doing this?
I told you, let's have lunch together.
If you wanted to have lunch, what were you doing at my home?
I knew you'd run home.
Although I didn't know you'd hug me like that.
Why did you want to have lunch with me?
- Because I'm curious. - About what?
Why you did that to me in the teachers' office the other day.
I need to hear the reason.
Please explain.
I don't want to.
Run.
When things get tough, you run away.
Let me apologize.
That day, I was hit in the face by a ball and wasn't in my right mind.
My glasses were broken, so I couldn't see anything.
So I dared to put my hand on the face of our noble chairman.
My sincerest apologies, Chairman Seok.
I want an explanation, not an apology.
Did I shoot someone?
An explanation for having your cheek pinched--
What was it like seeing me again after 18 years?
I'm asking you. How did it feel seeing me again?
- What about you? - I get annoyed when I see you.
I see you still resent me.
Then, did you think I would miss you?
Then I will answer too.
Seeing you again after 18 years makes me feel like crap, Mr. Chairman.
I wish you would stop going on about our meaningless past.
Meaningless?
Yes.
Just teacher and chairman.
I hope we'll only see each other briefly in that awkward context.
Actually, if possible, I'd rather not see you at all.
Fine, I am so sorry for bringing up our meaningless past.
Teacher and chairman?
Fine by me.
Then pull yourself together,
and refrain from pinching my cheek
or hugging me, or anything else embarrassing like that.
Let's avoid each other as much as possible and pretend not to know each other.
That's music to my ears.
Then have a nice day.
I'll say it again.
I'm really impressed with you all.
It's the fourth time you've said it.
I'm so happy, Jiwon.
My first pupils here like this.
A math teacher, a gym teacher,
and a chairman all at the same school.
But what are you doing here, Ms. Maeng?
I'm best friends with Ms. Yun.
I'm a math teacher like Ms. Cha.
I think the chairman is handsome.
And I respect you, Mr. Byeon.
I'm virtually a fellow classmate.
Ms. Maeng, I think you're being rude to the chairman.
Well, when he was in high school,
what kind of student was he? Other than a handsome one.
I'm so curious.
He was a great student, good at soccer, and had a great appetite.
And he and Yun Jiwon used to fight like cats and dogs.
Mr. Byeon, how can you say that?
I see. They had a feisty relationship.
It's time I got going.
Once, the two of them even made a bet.
They bet on their ranking on the final exams.
What was the bet?
What was it again?
What was it, guys? Do you remember?
If the chairman won, the two of them--
- Mr. Byeon. - Mr. Byeon.
Ms. Yun.
Yes, Haesu?
What's the matter?
Kim Yumi is crying in the hallway.
Again?
I'll sort it out.
Mr. Byeon, I'm going to have to go.
- But… - I should be on my way too.
Oh, really? Okay, well, let's hang out again soon.
Things were just getting interesting.
Yumi, the gifted classes haven't even been timetabled yet.
How do you know about something that was only brought up this morning?
There were rumors
that you scuffled with the chairman about it this morning.
There was no scuffle.
But that's not important. We haven't even drawn up a plan.
The teachers will make a plan and define standards.
In any case, you'll select in order of grades.
But I completely screwed up my freshman finals.
But you did well on your mocks.
Ms. Yun, I have to get in.
Otherwise my mom will go crazy.
Have you told your mom already?
If Haesu gets in and I don't,
I'm going to kill myself.
Hey! Don't ever say anything like that.
Wipe your tears and get to class.
None of the directors are taking my calls.
Just how much did they get
to do an about-face like that?
I'm not sure…
Sure, of course not.
You're on my side, so there's no way they told you.
Father.
Chairman Seok is very stubborn and obstinate.
Just stop worrying, and let it go.
Please change your mind, Mr. Chairman.
Please give me Mr. Gu's land.
Without that land, my project… No, my company will fail.
Isn't it failing because of your greed?
This resort and golf course you are proposing to build,
do you know how close they are to the local water purification plant?
And the school?
Legally, there's no issue--
Does that make it okay?
The mountain you want to flatten.
Do you know how important it is?
You were born and raised in this town.
Is that why you bought that land out from under me?
Mr. Gu made the smart choice
in selling his land to me. I didn't steal it.
Just give up, Gyeongtae.
Mr. Chairman, one day you will regret having insulted me today.
- Gyeongtae. - I will make sure of it…
Let it go?
It's going to be a hard fight that you cannot win.
I spent my whole life making choices
without regard for the chance of victory.
Even when it seemed dark,
I followed the path I believed was right.
Now that I'm broke,
that's more of a reason not to forsake my beliefs.
They say sudden changes at my age lead to death.
Grandpa, I'm hungry.
Good morning.
Geez, he's here again.
What kind of chairman comes to school so often?
I see you've been waiting for him.
He's like a ray of sunshine in the hopeless nightmare of school life.
Every time I see him, I beg him to hold a work night out.
But he doesn't react. He just smiles.
But when he smiles, the corners of his mouth are so…
Okay, I'm definitely going to get him to come to the Creative Club get-together.
Are you crazy? Why would you invite him to that?
- Because I want to. - Don't even think about it.
Does your boyfriend know you're like this?
Boyfriend?
When did I last update you?
Programmer.
That was two exes ago.
I dated a fitness trainer during vacation.
And I've been single since school began.
I am a lady of virtue.
I don't care how single you are, you can't touch him.
Oh my, who is that?
Are you okay, sir?
I'm very sorry.
Are you okay?
Yes, I suppose.
I do apologize.
Today is the day the trainee teachers arrive.
Hey, do you think he's one of them?
Don't be silly.
What kind of trainee teacher comes to school like…
If he is a trainee teacher,
I pity the poor teacher who has to mentor him.
It's written all over him.
"Hello, I am an attention seeker."
Hello. My name is Gong Munsu, and I'm a trainee gym teacher.
Oh my, you're the trainee gym teacher.
Yes, it's nice to meet…
Huh?
What?
Don't you recognize me?
I'm afraid I don't.
You're Gong Munsu, right? The swimmer Gong Munsu.
Swimmer?
Oh, my God!
Gong Munsu, the Korean dolphin.
That's right. The Korean Dolphin Gong Munsu.
You really don't recognize me?
Sorry, I don't really follow sports.
I know I'm a gym teacher, but I'm a bit--
It doesn't matter. Anyhow, we meet again.
Sorry?
What? Gong Munsu is a trainee teacher at our school?
Over here.
Oh my, it's nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.
Hello, I'm a massive fan.
Thank you.
It's my first time seeing you in person. Your shoulders are amazing.
Wow!
So you use informal speech with him?
He's seven years younger than me.
He told me to, so I did.
Jiwon, did you really not recognize Gong Munsu?
I've been googling him all morning, and now I do.
I guess that's possible.
He was big news before getting injured and disappearing without a trace.
Oh, now that I think about it, when he hit it big was right around then.
Right around when?
When you were going through a hard time right after college.
Why would a swimming star catch your eye with all that was going on?
It was quite a rough time.
With my parents passing away and all.
Sorry.
I've spoken out of turn.
Anyhow, he's here as a trainee teacher, so what's up with his clothes?
He said he dressed in his favorite items.
Because he was so excited.
I see.
Anyhow, Ms. Yun, you're going to be at your wit's end.
I hear he's here for the whole semester and not just one month.
Tell me about it. Why on earth was our school selected for this pilot scheme?
I never thought I could hate Cha Jihye any more.
And yet I hate her more and more every day.
Because you wish you were walking with him?
I may not have a boyfriend, but I still have loyalty.
Nice.
Besides, daytime strolls are lame.
I prefer…
to throw down the gauntlet at dinner tonight.
Don't you dare invite him.
Why do we always have to chat outside?
Let's go and grab a coffee in the health office.
I don't want to. I quit drinking coffee.
Why do you keep avoiding the health office? You were a regular.
Huh?
- What? - Huh?
What?
- Mr. Byeon. - Yes?
Don't you fancy a night out?
Always. I'm always up for dinner.
The Creative Club is having dinner tonight. Care to join us?
Really?
Can I really come?
On one condition.
So it's true.
You try to disarm people with that charming smile.
Sorry?
Don't smile, Jiwon.
Will you join us for dinner or not?
It's a dinner for teachers.
They will hate it for sure if I turn up.
We took a vote.
Everyone said okay. They were excited, honestly.
So you'll come?
You'll come, right?
Good afternoon.
Ma'am, what brings you to school?
Good afternoon, Mr. Byeon.
I'm here to see Yumi's homeroom teacher.
Oh, dear. Yun Jiwon is dead meat.
Is she the parent of one of Ms. Yun's students?
She always comes just before school ends.
She's a real pain.
- Hello. - Hey.
Bon appétit.
Since when did the Creative Club have so many members?
Ms. Maeng.
You startled me.
I convinced him.
Oh, the chairman is coming?
He has something to finish and is joining us later.
The Careers Club is joining too, right?
That's right.
Mr. Byeon.
Will Ms. Yun be at dinner tonight?
Of course.
Okay! Then please let me tag along too.
Gosh, you startled me. Great. Why not?
Thank you.
Come along.
And hang out with Gong Munsu.
Will do!
To the Creative Club!
Down it!
Dig in.
- Can we get some refreshing beer? - This is what's great about this place.
Everyone, dig in.
- It's delicious. - Is it delicious?
What the heck?
Knocked out with one drink?
- Is he okay? - Really?
Ms. Yun.
I haven't slept a wink since hearing about the gifted program from Yumi.
We haven't even started accepting applications yet.
But you will soon.
Please help make sure that Yumi is accepted.
Me?
SEOK JIWON, CHAIRMAN
Yumi's been having such a hard time, I…
She's been in Yun Jiwon's class since she was a freshman.
Her mom is a bit much.
Whenever she's upset, she comes and stays for four or five hours at a time,
going round and round in circles until she wears you down.
I'm sure she's here about the gifted program.
I'm not trying to make a fuss.
I'm fine if Yumi doesn't get in.
But her father is very angry.
He can't believe things are happening with no prior word.
It was a nightmare trying to stop him from storming down here himself.
I see. Well, when we start recruiting for the program,
please tell him to set up a parent-teacher conference.
I will explain it to him--
I don't think you understand just how angry he is.
What I'm trying to say…
To be honest, if there's any way you could help…
Huh?
Ms. Yun.
BYEON DEOKSU
Hello, Mr. Byeon?
Sorry?
Yes, I've just finished.
But I'm a little tired.
I have a lot of files to go through when I get home.
Alcohol! I need a drink!
Well, that's no reason to say you're never going to see me again.
Sorry?
You're going to come and fetch me? Now?
There's no need for that.
Where are you going?
Why do I have to tell you?
Are you going to the club dinner?
What if I am?
Why would you? Please don't.
I guess you're heading there?
But who are you to tell me what to do?
Why would you attend a faculty dinner? Read the room.
If you don't like me being there, you could just go home.
Why should I? It's for my department.
Then why should I not? I was officially invited.
A formal invitation for a work dinner?
Did you receive an invitation?
Whatever. I'm attending, so you do as you please.
- Drink. - Drink.
- Cheers. - Let's go.
So, would you date a colleague or not?
I wouldn't.
How can you date someone you work with?
I hate people who can't distinguish between their public and private lives.
Why?
That's what makes it more thrilling.
I met my wife at school.
And are you happy?
Don't ask that.
Anyhow, Mr. Park and Ms. Jeong are dating for sure.
As someone who's done it, I know when I see it.
Is everyone for or against dating people from school?
How about you, Ms. Yun?
Oh, well…
If the person is nice.
How nice do they have to be?
As nice as Mr. Hong here?
Hey, don't put her on the spot like that.
What about the chairman?
How about him?
Friends since childhood, good-looking,
dresses well, and is very capable.
Right, how about him?
How about him?
Anyway, are you getting frustrated because you can't pair up men and women?
That's really old-fashioned, uptight, and even lame.
That's what I think.
I'm going to get some air.
Did we say something wrong?
Not us, but you did cross the line a bit.
That was a bit out of line.
- No, let's just drink. - Me?
Yes, cheers. Let's get things rocking again.
I'm talking about love.
Drinking this always helps me sober up a bit.
Thank you.
Hey, just come in. It's my treat.
Your card's cut off. Let's just go.
- Just come in. - How can you go now?
Come in, dude.
Shall we take a walk somewhere quiet?
Shall we go this way?
Yes.
- It is nice and quiet here. - Yes.
Say what you have to say.
- I'm ready to listen. - Sorry?
I know you're trying to give me your answer to me saying I like you.
Huh? She likes him?
I'm sorry for keeping you waiting so long.
I'm not so young anymore, so I need to give things a lot of thought.
First of all, for liking someone like me,
I wanted to say thank you.
Thank you.
However…
you're still young.
You're a nice person and a good teacher.
You'd be wasted on me.
I don't deserve you.
After thinking long and hard, that's my conclusion.
Don't cry.
I'm sorry.
I'm not crying because you rejected me.
I'm fine about that because I was expecting it.
I'm crying
because these days…
I feel embarrassed about so many things in my life.
So you have nothing to be sorry for.
Ms. Yun.
I'm going to stay here for a moment.
You go in first.
Don't be like that, let's go in together.
Please.
Okay, take your time.
Why did I get drunk?
Why did I tell him I liked him?
What are you playing at?
Poor thing.
What do I do now?
Just remain calm.
I need to stay calm.
Ms… Ms. Yun.
Yun Jiwon.
Over here.
You crazy fool!
It is what it is. Could you help me get out?
Were you hiding here to eavesdrop?
No, I wasn't hiding.
I was staying out of your way. You appeared from nowhere.
Why did you have to flee over here where you could eavesdrop?
Could you get me out? We can talk once I'm out.
Did you hear everything?
Yes, I heard it all, I saw it all.
You cried after being dumped by a middle-aged man.
Who is he to dump you?
Jerk.
Did you really have to come here?
I told you I was here first.
I meant did you really have to come to this school.
Where I am.
No. Did you come because of me?
Because you wanted to see how I live?
To laugh at me?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are that I would come all this way just to see you? Huh?
Don't get the wrong idea, Ms. Yun.
The very sight of me annoys you?
Seok Jiwon, I hate you too.
You disgust me! Got it?
I hate you too. You annoy me. Got it?
Huh?
Ms. Yun.
Wait a sec.
Ms. Yun.
I'm so annoyed.
Do as I please? That jerk.
OBONG RESTAURANT
So, would you date the chairman or not?
You really are obsessed.
Even if I died and came back to life, I would never date him.
Never mind about working at the same school,
even if we were the last two people on earth, I still wouldn't date him.
I would travel to the ends of the earth in order not to have to see him again.
He probably feels exactly the same.
So, please just give it a rest, okay?
Are you saying you hate him that much?
Okay, fine. Drink up!
- Okay, cheers. - Cheers.
The crazy lilac?
Yeah, all those shrubs behind the school bench are lilac.
But one of them only flowers some years.
Is that possible?
Gosh, it's funny.
One year it flowers. The next it doesn't.
And just when you think it's died,
it blooms again, as if to say, "Here I am!"
That's why we call it the crazy lilac.
Your butt…
- Your pants… - Huh?
- Where have you been? - Smoking.
It's amazing.
In years when the crazy lilac flowers,
seniors get into good colleges.
Other years, they're screwed. That's how the superstition goes.
If they study hard enough, they'll get into college.
Exactly.
Do you think it'll flower this year?
I don't think it will ever bloom again.
It was my grandfather's pride and joy.
It's been four years now.
That's why our college acceptance rate…
It's not that.
It might flower.
Well, it might.
It won't.
It's not withered and dead.
How can you be so sure, Ms. Yun?
It hasn't flowered for four years.
This is the fifth year, not the 40th. It might flower.
- I'm telling you it won't. - What if it does?
Guys, this is…
Why are you like this?
It won't flower.
What will you do if it does?
What will you do if it doesn't?
What would you like me to do?
How about relinquishing your position as chairman?
Ms. Yun, that's not funny.
My position as chairman? Why not?
Wait, you're willing to bet your position as chairman on the crazy lilac?
You crazy…
What if it blooms?
What will you do, Ms. Yun?
If it blooms…
Date me.
If the lilac blooms.
I remember. The bet on final exams!
If Yun Jiwon won,
he had to call her nuna until graduation.
If Seok Jiwon won, they would date.
Just like now!
Oh, my God! Who won?
Yun Jiwon.
So, did the chairman call her nuna?
Nuna.
See, you hate it too, right?
You can't bear to hear me calling you nuna.
It's really gross.
Nobody forced you to lose.
Whatever.
Still a bet's a bet, so you'd better keep calling me nuna.
Forget it, I won't let you off.
Nuna.
Go out with me.
I've been thinking about it.
Back then, why did I suggest we date if I won?
To screw me over.
You were
next to me when I was born.
My mom told me not to play with you, but I wanted to.
They told me just to beat you, but I didn't care if I lost.
Although we always fight when we meet,
if I don't see you…
I miss you.
Hey, doofus, are you…
Yes.
To the point where I can't even remember when and why I started liking you.
It's a feeling I've had for so long that I'm not sure if it's even love.
I knew for sure when I made the bet…
Would you like to go eat tteokbokki with me?
- Sounds great. - Right?
What are you doing this weekend?
Want to go up to Seoul?
I thought it'd be nice to go together.
- Hey, what do you want to eat? - Tteokbokki.
Tteokbokki? Then we need to get a move on.
Hey, Yun Jiwon.
It's going to rain this weekend.
What?
Just stay at home, don't go off gallivanting.
What's it to you?
- Yun! Come on! - Coming.
I told you. It's going to rain.
Whatever.
Coming.
Hey, wait for me.
Hey!
At the entrance to the Intercity Bus Terminal in Yangso, Gyeonggi-do,
a bus coming from Seoul…
A bus has overturned.
- What? - Look at that.
- The intercity bus skidded in the rain… - Oh, my God.
- …and left the road… - Oh, no.
…colliding with a vehicle traveling in the next lane.
The driver of the car that collided with the bus was seriously injured.
The bus driver and 12 passengers
were taken to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.
- Please move out of the way. - It's an emergency.
Take him to the OR.
Do you have a patient called Yun Jiwon?
Where's Jiwon?
LIBRARY
I got scolded.
With final exams just around the corner, why would she go to Seoul?
She said she'd be at the library all weekend.
Jiwon, I like you.
What kind of nonsense is that?
If the lilac blooms, you have to date me.
I put my job on the line.
Don't you think you have to risk something you hate more than death itself?
Wow, what the…
What?
Oh, are you scared? Are you afraid of losing?
Why would I lose? That bush won't flower.
Well then, will you put your money where your mouth is? Or not?
You're on. Let's do it.
What do I have to fear?
LOVE YOUR ENEMY
Who's he kidding? It will never bloom.
That jerk stepping down in humiliation
will be my perfect ending.
You must've been recalling old memories.
You know what they say.
If you'll regret it anyway,
regret doing it rather than not doing it.
What will you do if the flowers bloom?
Are you really going to date her? Like before?
Have you been coming here?
I come here when I want to relax and stare at the ripples.
This isn't a place we come to relax.
