Woo-yeon.
Do it. Explain, make excuses, anything.
I'll believe anything you say, even if it's a lie.
You should've listened when I wanted to explain.
That's why I came right after you.
And if you do,
does that take away what you said?
Will my feelings disappear?
So let's talk.
Let go first.
You stay out of it. You have no right.
I don't need a right. Woo-yeon says she doesn't want to talk.
You said opportunities lost become regrets, right?
Just keep regretting it.
What's your problem? Do you have something to say to me?
Even saying you like someone hurts if you say it like it's nothing.
How long are you going to follow me?
You're making me uncomfortable.
That was the point.
So that you're too distracted to remember his nasty words.
Can't I pick up the opportunity
that he lost?
Why do you want someone else's opportunity?
It's an opportunity only when he has it.
What you have
is not an opportunity.
I got excited for nothing.
I thought it was an opportunity.
You should stop too.
Stop coming.
I don't know how to stop.
We met too rashly and broke up too suddenly.
My heart hasn't caught up yet to the situation.
So please
give me some time.
All I can do
is stand in front of you
as if I'm being punished.
How could I ever punish you?
Are you still being punished?
Probably.
I'm the one being punished.
Go inside.
I'll go.
-Why are you here? -You punk.
How could you greet your dad with "Why are you here?"
Because I'm not glad to see you.
I'm so hurt.
Do you have any alcohol?
This isn't a bar.
What happened between you and that girl?
I guess it didn't go well.
What about you? What happened with Mom?
That man isn't her boyfriend.
It wasn't a date.
You're talking to me, right?
Then who else?
You sounded like you were talking to yourself.
You seem to want to believe that.
Believe what you want.
If that's what you want to believe, go ahead.
Don't let a misunderstanding torture you.
If you like someone, then listen to everything they say.
Trust them no matter what.
That way, you won't have any regrets later.
Are you regretting, Dad?
That's
my specialty.
Is it hereditary?
Why are you here? Shouldn't you be studying?
I'll study when I have to. You're not my mom.
-Mom. -Watch it.
If I'm not around, your sister is your mom.
No, she's just my sister.
Also, you're going to be around.
Do you think I'll live forever?
Do you think only you grow older?
I'm aging.
Yes, you should age.
Let us watch you become an old lady after living a long time.
Cheol-su, isn't it time to pay for your after school classes?
Why didn't they charge me?
They will soon.
I'm leaving.
-Bye. -Okay, baby. Go and study hard.
Don't make me throw up.
-Hyun-jae. -Long time no see, Cheol-su.
-Where are you going? -To the library.
Wait.
I'm not a kid. Bye.
That punk.
He's all grown up.
Are you well, Mother?
Yes. It's so nice to see my son-in-law.
We're not even married, and everyone treats him like he's my husband.
I like it. What's wrong?
Go and buy something for Hyun-jae to drink.
I'm okay.
I'll have an iced americano.
Okay.
Here.
-Hyun-jae. -Yes. Please go ahead.
It must be tough.
They have nurses caring for patients at this ward, so guardians aren't needed.
I'm doing better than you think.
I'm sorry I can't help you with the burden.
I'm sorry I'm always having a hard time.
Say something else other than "I'm sorry".
I love you.
I love you more.
My poor baby is sick. I don't know what to do.
I wish I could be sick in your place.
Gosh. I hope my daughter gets better soon.
-It hurts my heart. -My mom
died when I was really young.
I can't even remember her face properly.
But these days,
I miss my mom although I can't remember her face.
When I think about it,
there aren't many moments
when I miss my mom.
But at that moment,
I'm really desperate.
I bet.
I'm worried about my kids.
I don't even remember my mom well,
but I miss her so dearly.
I feel sorry for my daughter.
When she's sick,
who'll be there for her?
No, no.
Cafe Manager
Ms. Kyung,
a new part-timer is coming tomorrow.
Please train them well.
I hate myself for being like this.
Kyung Woo-yeon
Why is it so hard?
Let's meet.
Why did you ask to see me here?
Then why did you show up?
To talk about something else.
I want Woo-yeon to be happy more than anyone.
I don't mind if she's not with me. It doesn't matter who she's with.
Except
for you.
Who are you to decide that?
If you hurt her once, you can hurt her again.
If she was hurt before, she'll be hurt again
because she'll get used to being hurt.
What do you know about me and Woo-yeon?
I know the face she makes after being hurt by you.
I know the sad face she makes behind your back,
and I know her hurtful face after turning away from you.
I also saw
her face as she waited for you despite all that.
That's why you're no good for her.
Did Hyun-jae leave?
Yes.
Make sure you hang onto his hand
and don't let go.
He's a good boy.
I know that too.
You should hurry up and get married.
I'll take care of that.
I know.
You were always good at taking care of things on your own.
I never did anything for you.
Although I don't like what you say,
I'll let you get away with it since you're sick.
I'm not being sarcastic.
I'm sorry I let you grow up so independently.
I'm sorry I left you on your own.
That's why you should hurry up and get better.
Don't leave me on my own from now.
I'm going to sleep.
You should go.
It doesn't look like this misfortune
will ever end.
Episode 11: The End
What is this? Is it a solo drinking day or something?
Why are you sitting there?
I purposefully sat away for you.
Just tell me to leave, why don't you?
Don't leave and sit in front of me.
Both Woo-yeon and Jin-ju are fast to tell me to leave.
Why did you tell me to sit down?
Do you think I told you to sit because I like you?
Objectively speaking,
I didn't do anything wrong to you or Jin-ju.
But we saw it all.
We saw Woo-yeon's ten years.
We watched her emotions for too long, and it caught onto us.
Why did you tell me to sit down if you don't like me either?
No reason. I'm happy to see you.
I don't feel welcomed,
but it must be just a hunch.
You look like the world is going to fall apart.
Just tell me. It looks more serious when you talk with body language.
Do you know Rapunzel?
Yes. The one with long hair, right?
Do you know where she lives?
In a tower?
Yes.
There are no stairs or ropes,
but there's a window. She lives at the top of the tower.
She can look out, but never go out.
The top of the tower.
I feel like I'm there too.
Why are you telling me this?
Because you're going to leave.
I can be honest with someone who'll leave.
You can't live in such a place.
Higher floors are more expensive.
You suit
somewhere around the 15th floor.
You're kind of cute.
Don't fall for me. I belong to Woo-yeon.
Fine, but why are you making that confession here?
I tend to do it everywhere.
I do it in front of others whenever I get the chance,
and I do it to Woo-yeon whenever I can make it happen.
Wait.
Give me your hand.
-It's okay. -Take it. Take it.
-I said I'm okay. -Just take it.
Are you serious?
What do you want to eat? Should we order more drinks?
Hey, put a case of soju under Soo's name.
-"A case"? -Yes.
Here.
What is it?
I made you a lunchbox.
Don't order jjajangmyeon for lunch.
Why are you giving this to me?
No reason.
It's true
I said what I said when I was angry,
but I didn't grow my feelings from anger.
I really
like you.
You pity me, don't you?
Do you feel sorry for me
-after what happened with... -It's not pity. It's affection.
I don't feel sorry for you. I have feelings for you.
I'm confessing.
I'm asking you to date me.
Hey.
I'm not crazy. Why would I date you?
I know
you didn't live this hard to date someone like me.
But you know,
I don't have to be your final stop.
I can be a station you pass by.
A station where you transfer.
When you find a good guy,
you can go to him.
I'll let you go without any regrets.
What is this? You make it sound serious.
I'm serious.
If you really don't want to date me,
you can just play with me.
I'll be your toy.
Don't answer me right away.
Answer me after you think about it seriously.
There's no need to think about it seriously.
Just look. I have goosebumps all over me.
-Do you see it? -That's because you're cold.
Go inside and eat.
I'm leaving.
Bring the box over later.
I'm really leaving.
What's with him?
Prosecutor Han Jin-ju
I'd have butterflies if this was from a different guy.
Coffees are on the right, milk teas are on the left.
-Check the date on the receipt... -Okay.
Welcome.
Hello.
Can you refill the napkins and the straws in the hall?
Okay.
Coupon. I was fair this time.
I didn't say anything.
One iced americano.
Please wait, sir.
I came to apologize.
It's okay.
I understand why it could've happened that day.
I'm sorry about that day and the day before too.
I came to apologize for everything.
I didn't know telling you my feelings like that could hurt you too.
I was mad to see you with him,
and it hurt me when you told me you don't like me.
I put my feelings first and acted like a kid. I'm sorry.
Did you eat something wrong?
I'm on an empty stomach. Let's eat together.
-I'm working. -I'll wait until you're done.
See you later, Woo-yeon.
Mr. On.
Sorry, but no.
You don't even know what I was going to ask.
I can't drink.
How did you know?
You should change the way you always ask me.
It's you who should change.
You're going to Ms. Kyung right now, aren't you?
How much longer are you going to do this?
I don't know
how long it'll last and what I should do either.
That's why I'm looking for a solution.
There is no solution.
It's the wrong proposition and an epigraph.
You should throw out such a sentence.
Sometimes an epigraph can become a poem.
When someone hurts you, you should be hurt.
If you keep on saying you're okay with every rock thrown at you,
one day you'll face a boulder.
I'll try to act like I'm okay with a boulder too.
You'll be crushed to death.
Seriously. Who is she to you for you to go this far?
I want to try things at least, but she won't allow me any room.
It's best you don't.
I can't watch her get hurt.
Then turn your eyes away.
You're just an onlooker now.
Your americano is ready.
Darn it.
Are you okay?
Hey.
Are you okay?
Welcome.
Is Ms. Kyung Woo-yeon not in today?
She went to the hospital.
"The hospital"? Is she sick? Did she get hurt?
No, she didn't get hurt.
Her friend was hurt.
He was very good looking.
I hope it won't scar.
You'll have to take responsibility.
I'll pay the hospital bill.
Woo-yeon is looking at me because I'm hurt.
Will she keep looking at me if it scars?
Let me remove that.
Don't get it wet for a while
and put the ointment on according to the schedule.
Okay.
You may go now.
Let's go.
What are you doing?
Hold my hand. I'm hurt.
Are you insane? Why do you hurt yourself for someone else?
What if you get seriously injured? Do you think they'll take care of you?
Are you okay?
I went to the cafe but you weren't there.
Stop going there.
I'm going to quit.
Did you clear up the misunderstanding with him?
I happened to hear when I went to the cafe.
I guess so.
He keeps getting new opportunities
even after he loses them.
I envy him.
I guess that's true too.
If there's really nothing I can do,
maybe I should punish you after all.
But I'm not the only one being punished then.
You feel like you're being punished too.
I think being punished may be better.
Why are you doing this to me?
Even if I combine all the guilt
I've ever felt toward anyone,
it doesn't compare to you.
But you know,
no matter how bad I may feel,
it doesn't beat my liking him.
Even if he throws opportunities and my feelings on the ground,
I keep wanting to put them back in his hand.
So please stop making me feel bad.
Obey traffic laws
Hey.
-The security camera? -The camera? Oh. Yes.
I guess I should go then.
Okay. Get home safely.
You're a rare breed these days.
She says she's too scared to go to the bathroom,
and he installs a camera right away.
-Pardon? -I was talking to myself.
-What was that? -Did you eat?
Is that all you care to ask me?
No.
Then may I ask what I really want to know?
No.
Don't be scared.
Hey. Let me make myself clear.
I don't want...
I only want to be friends with you.
I'm going to go on blind dates. Right.
I'm going to meet a really great guy and get my happily ever after.
Okay.
You accepted that rather quickly.
You just said you don't like me.
I'll just do my best to win you over.
-Win what over? -You. You, that's what.
-Sit down and eat. -Stop telling me to eat!
Do you want tteokbokki?
Soo
Hello?
Woo-yeon.
What's wrong?
Are you sick?
I ran over because you sounded like you were about to die.
How can you eat right now?
Well. It's delicious. Eat some.
I'll shut my mouth since you got hurt because of me.
Don't shut your mouth. Eat.
I guess I need to get hurt for you to eat with me.
It's our first time eating alone together since I came to Seoul.
-Really? -It's nice being hurt.
I get to eat with Woo-yeon.
-What? -You seem very unfamiliar.
Why? Did I do something wrong?
This is unfamiliar too.
Just call me if you need me.
Don't fake being sick like earlier.
You scared me.
Really?
Yes, really.
You'll regret it.
Soo
Hello?
-Woo-yeon. -Yes?
What does hurting your back have to do with watching a movie?
I'm emotionally weak right now, so I get scared in the dark.
Soo
Hello?
Woo-yeon.
Soo
Woo-yeon.
Please... Please, will you please stop saying my name?
Please stop saying my name.
You said to call you whenever I need you.
Don't you know moderation at all?
Is it fun for you to torment me?
I won't torment you if you come to me. I'll be good to you.
Let's go.
Why won't this go?
Let's go.
Hello?
Kim Cheol-su's academy tuition wasn't taken out yet.
He quit?
What's his problem?
Who shows up 20 minutes late to a blind date?
Han Jin-ju?
Oh...
Yes.
Hey, you! Hey! Bring me some water.
Why are you snapping your fingers at people?
Who cares? The customer is king.
Enjoy.
You must be superficial and extravagant.
Pardon?
Do you drive an imported car?
Oh, yes.
Imported cars are nice. Sports cars are nice.
But if you consider the initial expenditure and fuel efficiency,
it's actually a waste of money.
I have lots of cash and wasting it is my hobby.
That's not your building, Jin-ju. It's your parents' building.
It's not like a prosecutor makes much.
I'm sure I make more than an average salary-man.
I didn't take you for that kind of person.
You like to make men feel small.
Why aren't you eating?
Are you pretending to be ladylike?
I like women who enjoy their food.
I can't eat. I have anorexia.
Then have a glass of lassi.
The lassi here is delicious.
You darned lame...
Lassi.
An injured person shouldn't cook.
I'm getting over my regret.
Sit and wait. It won't take long.
Okay.
Free your schedule tomorrow. We're going somewhere.
Okay.
Do you photograph people now?
Yes.
I think I will a lot from now on.
Are you going to travel again?
I should. Traveling is my job.
Yes.
Traveling is your job.
There you go.
Lots of seafood and firm noodles
with lots of Cheongyang chilies.
Do you know how upset I was after you left the way you did?
What is it now?
What did I do wrong?
You didn't do anything wrong.
My heart skips a beat whenever you give me that look.
I get scared you'll jump up and leave.
I hope your back doesn't scar.
Why? Are you afraid I'll use it to cling to you?
If it scars, I'd feel bad for your future girlfriends.
Hey, Kyung Woo-yeon.
No woman loves a man who'll leave her.
Your dream is so far away.
If you're looking for a woman who'll wait for you like a port,
that's not me.
I said I was okay with you being halfway around the world, 12 hours apart,
and I said I could wait for the rest of my life when I was 18.
That me is gone now.
Why did you insist on joining me?
You paid for dinner,
so I'll provide some company.
I'm being considerate.
That's too much consideration.
Is it because it's an imported car? It is quite nice, isn't it?
Everything's automatic.
Should I just kill him?
I'll do the dishes.
I'll do it.
No, let me.
I didn't invite you over to make you wash dishes.
Instead,
get me a milk tea.
Okay.
Jin... Jin-ju.
What do you want?
I need...
I need to go to the toilet.
Right now?
When the traffic's this jammed?
I don't think
-I can plug it. -Plug it! Keep it in at all costs.
-I think I might die. -Darn you!
You just had to gulp down your lassi.
Hang in there a bit.
No, I can't.
Welcome. What can I get you?
I'll have two black sugar bubble milk teas.
-Just a moment. -Okay.
Shake it 15 times before using your straw.
Thank you.
Enjoy your drink.
Bye.
What took you so long to let me in?
Sorry.
Why? What's wrong?
-Take it off. -What?
-Take it off. -What are you doing, Woo-yeon?
Pull yourself together.
If you're in pain, you should've made me leave
or asked me to put cream on for you.
Why didn't you say anything?
I don't want you to leave,
and you'll only get upset if you see my back.
Are you stupid?
I think my IQ is evaporating these days
when I'm with you.
You confess your love whenever you can.
I do what I can whenever I can and you still block me out.
Hey, you smiled. You smiled, didn't you?
Keep still.
Don't move too much.
I know even the back of my head's handsome.
The person you have reached...
The psycho disappeared?
What is it?
What's wrong?
You quit your extra lessons to work part-time?
Yes, I'll make money. I'll make lots of money.
Who told you to make money?
If you need more allowance, I'll give you more. Just study.
Are you Mom?
Why would you give me an allowance when Mom doesn't?
Why do you act more like a mom than Mom does?
Will you just quit bothering me and just get married?
I'll take care of Mom.
Can you do that by flipping burgers?
I won't get married so...
Get married. Why wouldn't you?
You want to get married.
If you stay single because of us and die alone,
I bet Mom and I would just love that.
Darn it.
Kim Cheol...
Must you act out too right now?
What is it?
-What's what? -What? What's up?
I need a drink because I'm perplexed, so why do you both have long faces?
-Why are you perplexed? -I bet it's Soo.
I am so sick if this.
Not as sick as the one involved.
What about you, Young-hee?
Cheol-su's all grown up.
-What's wrong with that? -Don't ask.
What about your blind date?
What? You went on a blind date?
My blind date.
That's crazy.
How could he poop in your car?
How could he poop in the seat and just disappear?
You don't believe it either, do you?
I'm still wondering if it really happened.
You should consult a fortune-teller.
Something's definitely wrong.
That was too drastic.
You're really okay, aren't you, Young-hee?
Is this a bad time for me to whine?
Don't you mind me tonight.
Even if the skies cave in, you have the right to whine.
Yes.
I'm not too pleased to have that right.
People say that your life is a play.
If this is a play,
I want to murder the scriptwriter.
Me too.
My scriptwriter has a thing for unrequited love.
Why should one's love be so tiresome?
He's a real pervert.
The poop-and-dash.
I didn't want to win with an episode like that.
Where's your car?
Yes. Did you clean it up yourself?
I left it at a repair shop.
What did Soo say to you?
It's not like he says much.
There's a behind story to this.
Not at all.
There is something.
Mont Best
-Excuse me. -Yes?
Don't you have a pack of six? That's the daily dose.
Just a moment, please.
Han Jin-ju.
Are you okay?
Oh, dear. It's okay. It's fine.
I tried to wipe it all off,
but I just couldn't, so I took it to a repair shop.
You can pick it up in two days, Ms. Prosecutor.
Your ugly face is even uglier when you cry.
Why are you so nice to me?
I'm not nice to you.
I haven't done anything for you yet.
If I really start being nice to you,
you'll be surprised.
I'll buy you dinner.
Not dinner.
Let's watch a movie.
A movie?
That's more like a date.
Did you have a lot to drink?
Just a little.
Will you just
quit bothering me and just get married? I'll take care of Mom.
I thought he'd be good when he grew older.
How he's older, it's upsetting.
Kyung Woo-yeon. What if I don't go?
-What? -What if I don't leave?
Will you love me then?
You'll give up your dream for me?
Answer me.
Then I'll think long and hard starting today.
You hurt your back, not your hands.
Why must I drive you?
I hurt my hand long ago.
I always get hurt whenever I'm with you.
Why do you never hurt your lips?
If my lips were to bleed,
you'll get the fright of your life.
My lips would look like split cherries.
Where do you learn all those lines?
It's a natural talent.
So, where are we going?
Go straight for 300m and turn left.
Just follow the GPS.
Where am I right now?
In my heart?
But I'm in Jumunjin.
Hey.
My gosh. This is so infuriating.
I'm so annoyed.
Drink this. Water should cool you down.
Welcome to my day, Kyung Woo-yeon.
Grandma.
You actually came back?
How have you been?
Hello.
Is she your wife?
No. At least not yet.
Let's go inside.
You came all the way here to give me this?
Thank you anyway.
I promised.
Where's your husband?
Him? He's gone.
You're back from the community center already?
Because it's lunchtime.
Oh? Hello there.
I'm surprised.
You came all the way here to give a photo?
I keep my promises.
How did you meet the old couple?
I told you I'd go on a trip.
I came here.
That's when
I saw the elderly couple walking hand-in-hand.
I took photos of them and got to know them.
Why did you photograph them?
If there's a happy ending, I think that would be it.
When a fairy-tale ends, "the end" always goes up.
I thought the picture in the next page
would be something like that.
I'm surprised.
I thought you were insensitive.
People get that wrong about me all the time
since I act so cool.
Do you think you're a goblin?
Something like that.
Because it's nice out. Because it's not nice out.
Because it's good enough.
Every day with you was good.
Why do you think only about yourself?
It was always bad for me.
Whether it was nice or not nice,
or good enough...
Is this not it?
Woo-yeon.
Can't I keep being unexpected and unfamiliar to you?
I'll keep being unexpected and unfamiliar
and make you forget all the times I hurt you.
I planned to think about it once you answered me,
but I thought about you every day, so I'm done thinking.
I won't go if you tell me not to.
Not anywhere.
That's what I've decided to do.
-I... -Wait. Don't say anything.
Think first before you answer me.
I'm not ready yet.
I don't want to be hurt again.
Let's go. I'll drive.
What was that?
What am I supposed to do if he does everything by himself?
Hey, we have to stop for gas. We're running low.
The surgery went well.
Thank you.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
Mom.
Are you awake?
Mother. Do you know who I am?
She's still under anesthesia, so she may not recognize you.
What are you doing?
-We're out of gas. -What?
What now?
I'll call roadside assistance.
I told you earlier to fill up.
Oops. I forgot.
Why do incidents always happen when I'm with you?
-What? -Come out.
Okay.
What are you doing?
Sit down.
Why should I?
Look at the stars. There are so many.
Do you seriously think I want to stargaze right now?
What's gotten into you?
It's so pretty.
You're so simple.
Okay.
What is that? Did you prepare for this?
Yes, I did. In many ways.
This is nice.
Why are you staring at me?
I realized that although I've known you for a long time,
I don't know anything about you.
To be more precise, I'm not someone you've known for a long time,
but someone you knew a long time ago.
We were apart more than we were together.
Talk about yourself.
I want to know about you.
When did you get into calligraphy?
You were working in an office when I last saw you.
Three years ago.
I quit my job two years ago.
Why did you quit?
Among the factors that affect your life, the only ones you can choose
are your job and spouse.
Wouldn't it be too miserable if you can't choose those either?
So I wouldn't be miserable.
What foods do you like?
I eat everything. I'm not picky.
Favorite singer?
Urban Zakapa.
What? Me too.
Favorite movie?
"A Moment to Remember."
Life
doesn't provide you with an end at the right time and place.
Favorite...
The end always comes,
and we just
stand at that end.
Hyun-jae.
Yes?
You want to get married, right?
Should we break up?
Either sick...
or happy.
Come to think of it,
You taught me what I like and dislike,
and when to be bold and when to back off.
I must have liked you a lot.
Do I still?
Me too.
I like you a lot,
Woo-yeon.
My unrequited love is over now, right?
I don't have to wait anymore, right?
I don't need an answer. I won't wait anymore.
Finally, my curse...
Finally, my unrequited love...
came to an end.
Yu-ra. You forgot this.
Oh my gosh. Thanks.
Are you going back to Korea right after Milan?
I think so.
To see him?
Yes.
-Boyfriend? -Yes.
He's quite cute.
I know, right?
Hey, what do you think about this dress?
