ALL LOCATIONS, CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS, DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS
Na-bi would love this.
Yang Do-hyeok!
You're here.
What happened?
I just got hurt a little.
How? Is it bad?
It's fine. Na-bi took good care of it.
Gosh, it must hurt.
You should have been careful.
Where's Na-bi?
She said she's too tired to come.
She's not coming?
Are you that upset?
She went to her aunt's?
Probably. Why?
It's nothing.
But where is Jae-eon?
Do-yeon, take care of the guests.
What? Where are you going?
EPISODE 8: I KNOW IT'S A LIE. NEVERTHELESS,
YANG DO-HYEOK
Is this really okay?
If we continue,
I don't think I can stop.
Oh, there you are.
Do-yeon told me you went home.
Right. I was about to leave.
-I'll take you home. -No, it's fine. I can go by myself.
It's late. I'll take you.
All right, then.
Well…
What?
It feels like the timing is wrong.
What do you mean?
What is all this?
It's a flower called lisianthus.
It means…
Will you accept this?
Do-hyeok.
You're a really good person.
-Then-- -But I don't think this is good timing.
I don't think I can have a good relationship right now.
Is it because of Park Jae-eon?
Honestly, I can't say it isn't.
I ran away and came here because of him too.
Then do you want to see him again?
It's not like that.
Are you disappointed in me?
Yes.
I already knew I'd get disappointed,
so a little thing like this
won't make me get disappointed in you.
You're just romanticizing me right now. I--
Then just…
disappoint me even more.
Right now, I like you so much
that I don't know what to do.
I like you. Sincerely.
I understand how you feel.
So don't be too hard on yourself.
I'm sorry.
I don't even know why I'm crying.
Can I give you a hug?
No.
You'll feel better after you cry all you want.
No. I'd feel even more sorry.
I know…
exactly what my tears mean.
I cried because I felt so pathetic.
Did you take her home safely?
You must like her a lot.
Yes. Unlike someone.
So stop confusing her.
It's none of your business, you know.
Is Na-bi easily swayed by me?
No. Not at all.
She says she regrets the time she spent with you.
She says she wants to forget it all.
Auntie.
What?
It'll take some time, so let's wait outside.
Okay.
I'll finish up the rest, so wash your hands over there.
All right.
You're the one who made Na-bi come here, aren't you?
-Auntie. -You're up.
Did you sleep well?
What are you doing here?
I was learning pottery from your aunt.
He came this morning, saying he was a close friend of yours.
He wanted to learn pottery,
so I was teaching him a few of my special know-hows.
You don't even know him. You should've been careful.
You should've confirmed it with me.
Isn't he your friend?
-He is, but-- -Then it's fine.
Let's eat. Do you want to join us?
Sure.
What are you doing?
You two can catch up.
Where are you going?
What are you doing here?
I wanted to see your aunt.
Stop joking around.
We didn't get to finish.
What do you mean?
Just forget about yesterday.
By that,
are you saying it didn't mean anything?
It was a mistake.
We were both drunk.
Well, if that's how you feel.
He's such a coward.
Are you and Do-hyeok dating?
You don't have to know.
It's none of your business.
Hey, you're so cold.
You really hurt me just now.
Na-bi.
Sorry.
-Is there anything you like? -I'm sorry, but I should get going.
You're not going to eat?
Why? It won't take long.
I have other plans.
I loved your jangjorim. It's too bad.
You tried my jangjorim? How?
I sent them only to Na-bi.
Can I come and learn pottery during vacations?
Of course.
He's pretty talented.
If I teach him well, he might be a better assistant than you.
Don't be ridiculous.
I'll be off, then.
All right.
See you in Seoul.
Take care.
Let's go eat.
Surprisingly, my regretful past still hasn't ended yet.
Here you go. Enjoy your food.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Isn't Jae-eon eating?
I guess he's still sleeping.
He left saying he had plans.
-He left? -What plans?
I'm not sure what plans he had.
-What about Na-bi? -She went to her aunt's.
I see.
Hey. What about Gyu-hyun? He's not eating?
I don't know. I guess he's not feeling well.
Gosh. I feel awful.
Do you even remember last night, Ji-wan?
I remember doing the drinking games,
but I don't remember anything after that.
Why did you drink so much by yourself?
Sol took you to your room last night
and washed your face and everything.
How will you live without Sol?
You should get a grip on yourself. All right?
Hey, look who's talking.
-Without Gyu-hyun-- -Shut up.
Okay.
Darn it.
CENTRAL BUS TERMINAL
Na-bi.
Do-hyeok.
I'm glad you didn't leave yet.
I didn't know you were coming. When did you get here?
I wanted to see you off this time.
Oh.
Get home safe.
I will. Good luck with the restaurant.
I'm going to try uploading various contents like you suggested.
And try changing my video styles.
Good thinking.
Can you watch them after I edit them?
Of course. I'll watch them and give you feedback.
It's nothing special, but have this on the way.
Thanks.
I only receive things from you.
It's fine.
I'll get going now. Take care.
-Sure, you too. -Okay.
They look good.
Na-bi. I thought about it…
and I don't think I can give up on you that easily.
Not until you see someone else
or tell me you'd never like me.
I'll call you later.
See you next time.
It's so pretty.
Go. I'll return the car.
-Thanks. Get back safe. -Bye.
-Take care. -Where are you going?
We're going home.
-Home? -Bye!
-I'm heading to the studio. -Bye.
Aren't you getting off?
The weather seems to have gotten hotter, right?
Should we get some shaved ice?
I'm just going to head home.
I can't just eat it by myself.
Do you still not remember anything from yesterday?
What? Yesterday?
Yes. I brought you inside the room last night.
And after that…
Gosh. I can't remember anything.
I should really quit drinking.
Did I do something bad to you yesterday?
Yes.
Oh, really?
I'm really sorry.
Sol, if I ever try to drink again,
just beat me up so I'll get a grip.
I was just kidding. Nothing happened.
Hey! You startled me.
I'm tired. I'm going home now.
Okay. Get home safe.
Get off.
Hey.
Did we break up?
If you agree.
You agree, right?
I mean…
To be honest, we both knew what each other was like--
I know.
But I think we were on better terms as friends.
You said it was tough dating a guy like me, remember?
Gosh.
Are you still bothered by what I said?
-You-- -Honestly, it's tough for me too.
And we've been fighting ever since we started dating.
Were you even happy dating me?
We haven't even been dating that long. That's a bit too deep.
And it seems like we both don't want to change for each other's sake.
It's best to end things here.
All right.
Then let's be friends again.
What?
You said we were better as friends.
We were friends for much longer than we dated.
Why wouldn't we be friends again?
Right. We could be friends again,
but it feels like
you might ask to become friends with benefits later.
I won't, so let's just be friends again.
Nobody knows about us, so I'll do my best not to show it.
I won't cause you trouble.
I ended up…
coming back.
Are you here to work on your assignments?
I'm just going to have a smoke and leave.
I have to return the car.
That's tiresome.
It must've been tiring for you too.
-What do you mean? -I shouldn't have told you
that Na-bi was coming.
Well, something good came from that.
What?
I can focus on my work better.
I'm ending things with her.
Why?
I'm exhausted.
It's the same for her too.
I guess people never change.
Right.
It's been a while.
Oh, Dimples.
Hey, why were you ignoring me?
When? Oh, right.
I was with my boyfriend.
Boyfriend? You have a boyfriend?
I did, but not anymore. I got dumped.
You? Why? Why did you get dumped?
I don't know.
Hey. What do you think relationships are?
Relationships?
Spending time with someone you love. Eating, drinking,
watching movies, talking on the phone.
What's wrong with everyone?
Why? What do you think they are, then?
Kissing and having sex with one person.
You didn't say that to your boyfriend, did you?
I didn't…
No, I guess I kind of did.
Right. I see why you got dumped.
Hey, cute lady.
I'll be there soon.
All right.
I kept thinking about you.
I missed you.
But as always,
you're not contacting me.
I'M THROWING AWAY ALL YOUR STUFF
But at least it doesn't hurt me as hard as before.
Did I get used to feeling this way?
I'M THROWING AWAY ALL YOUR STUFF
YANG DO-HYEOK
-Hey, Do-hyeok. -Hi, Na-bi. Did you arrive home?
Yes. I was just about to tell you.
The brownies were good.
That's a relief. It was my first time making them.
You're good at everything.
The cake you made me on my birthday was great too.
I did my best to learn how to make that since you love chocolate.
I was thinking of becoming a pastry chef because of you.
What? Really? You're lying, right?
Yes.
Was it obvious?
Hey, that wasn't even funny.
It's nice to hear your voice.
The whole neighborhood
seems empty without you.
Everyone living there will laugh at that.
I'm sure they'll understand if they know how I feel right now.
You're going overboard.
What were you doing?
I was preparing for the exhibition.
I rested for the past few days.
I have a lot to do now.
I think I'll be going to Seoul soon. Do you want to meet up?
Sure.
-Is there anything you want to eat? -What about you?
You're coming all the way here. I'll treat you.
What?
That's way better.
Isn't it too noisy?
What are you talking about? I was about to raise the volume.
-What? You can't hear that? -You can hear that?
Your hearing is really bad. You listen to music loudly, don't you?
You should fix that habit.
You'll lose your hearing.
The volume you lowered it to is way too quiet.
Okay. Then just raise it by three.
-No. -Just three more.
-My ears hurt. -Just ten, okay?
-Just ten. -We can hear it fine.
-Just ten. -What's with you?
-Come on. -Just…
Are you okay?
Are you hurt?
No. I'm fine.
I'm okay.
Thanks for this.
-Sure. -Thank you.
This place has the best tteokbokki.
-Really? -This place?
Hey, Na-bi!
Applying to work late?
Yes.
Come have some tteokbokki.
-Chopsticks. -Come and eat.
Chopsticks.
Thank you.
How is your piece going? I'm looking forward to it.
Jae-eon volunteered to be her assistant, so it's going to be great.
But I saw Jae-eon earlier,
and he was talking to some foreigners. What's that about?
They're from VCU.
They saw his works and wanted to talk to him.
Awesome. Why? Are they trying to scout him?
Yes. They wouldn't want to lose their chance.
They're probably trying to scout
some kids while they're here for the symposium.
Gosh. He seems a bit overqualified to be Na-bi's assistant.
Hey, that's ridiculous. There's no such thing as qualifications in art.
Of course there is.
Right.
Then I guess Jae-eon would become an artist for sure. Like Su-yeong.
I guess so.
You don't have to only become an artist.
There are lots of jobs related to our major.
That's only for talented people.
My parents did so much to send me here, thinking they'd have
an artist in the family.
They spent so much money on me.
I feel so bad.
It's fine, Ji-wan. I'm sure they didn't expect much.
What?
You're getting the exchange program results soon.
Are you preparing your portfolio?
Well, yes.
I'm preparing that along with the exhibition for now.
"For now"? What do you want to do, then?
Well…
I'm not sure…
I'm not sure yet, so if I get accepted--
What you want is more important, you know.
Why do you want to go to Paris?
Are you doing an interview or what?
Working hard is nice, of course, but you should focus on one thing.
-It's a critical time right now. -Right.
I'm worried I might end up not gaining anything at this rate.
Don't worry. Everyone feels the same.
Even us graduate students.
There must be something you like more.
Keep asking yourself what you like.
I will.
What I like more…
I thought I already found it, but…
I'll do it. Where should I move it?
It's fine. I'll do it.
I should do it. I'm your assistant, remember?
I can do this much.
By the way, I was at the office earlier and Gyeong-jun told me.
I heard you got scouted.
Are you going to America?
I'm going to give it some thought.
Right. I see.
Oh, and I can throw away your stuff that's at my house, right?
You still have them?
I'll throw them away.
No, don't. I'll go get them soon.
Fine, then.
Do you have a lot of work left?
Well, I did finish…
But why?
We have somewhere to go, remember?
INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR
Let's go.
You said you wanted to see this.
What do you think? Don't you like it?
Well…
Would it be okay to go closer?
Sure.
When did you buy a car?
My mom gave it to me for my birthday.
That's a generous gift.
We lived separately since I was ten.
I guess she feels sorry.
This exhibition was nice.
I should come again.
Right. It did feel different seeing the pieces in person.
Honestly, I didn't want to come.
Why?
It wasn't because of the exhibition.
I just have bad memories about this place.
Really?
I saw someone so beautiful here
that I fell in love at first sight.
I'm sure.
It was snowing that day.
I didn't ask.
It was an opening exhibition for an artist.
What was the artist's name?
It was boring, so I was about to leave.
But then I saw a girl standing in front of a piece for a long time.
Just like you back there.
And one day,
I ran into her again.
I was startled.
If I believed in fate, I would have felt that this was it.
But you don't.
I don't.
Right, there's no such thing as fate.
Everything is just a meaningless coincidence.
Yun Sol!
All right…
Hey, Yun Sol!
Your phone's broken, right? I know.
It's not.
Oh, then did your fingers break? Did they just get healed?
Hey. What's going on with you?
What?
You keep ignoring my messages.
Are you angry at me about something?
Why would I be?
What?
It's nothing. I'm just not feeling well.
You're not well? Let me see.
Well…
I have to finish my project. I'll be off.
Let's go!
Keep going forward!
I can only go forward!
FRIENDS LIST GYUHYUN777
SEONGJU-DONG, 24, HANDSOME
I'm totally screwed! What do I do?
What is it?
PART-TIME MODEL: I CAN'T MAKE IT TODAY
I feel like crying.
-Your pizza's here. -Thank you.
Darn it. It's for today's class. The professor's going to flip.
Even if we don't pay much,
how can they cancel on the day of the job?
We should ask for a bigger budget or something.
We can't make up for missing models too, you know.
Let's contact everyone who might be able to make time.
What class is it?
Well…
Jae-eon, how would you like to do a part-time job?
Well, I…
Jae-eon, try this too.
This looks so filling. You'll be full with just that.
-Eat up. -Eat up.
Go on.
-Isn't it good? -It's good.
-You should eat too. It's good. -Sure.
Isn't it good?
It's great. Jae-eon, try the sauce too.
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
What? It's Mr. An again.
-What? -Jeez.
When are we getting a real model?
Even if we can't get nude models,
we can't keep having you as our model…
We're getting sick of it now.
You guys, quiet down.
All right. We have a special model for today's class.
-Is it you? -Me?
It's probably Ms. Jo again.
All right, come in!
No way.
I can draw a hundred sketches of him.
He could be our main model.
Next pose, please.
Why did Jae-eon agree to do this, though?
It's so unlike him.
Because Mr. An told him--
Good work today, everyone.
-Thanks. You did good. -Thank you.
-Thank you for today. -Thank you.
The model was great today.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
She just said the model was great.
-Are you going to the studio? -Should we eat?
-I'll call you later. -Okay.
-Do you want to go eat? -Do you want to go eat, Sol?
Go ahead first.
Hey, Jae-eon. How do you do that flirtatious wink?
What? Me? I didn't wink.
-Why would you do that? -I didn't!
How shameless.
Jae-eon, can you help out?
-Jae-eon? Help us. -Okay.
He was the model, though.
Do-hyeok.
-It must've been tough coming here. -It's fine.
-What's that? -What? Oh, it's nothing.
You're hungry, right? Let's go.
-It's this way. -Okay.
Gosh. Did you make this yourself?
Yes.
Gosh…
This looks so good.
It's delicious.
I only had delivery and convenience store food these days.
-I'll make food for you often. -Sure.
You must've stayed up late making this.
It would've been tough coming here too.
No, it didn't take long.
I brought some fruits too.
Okay. What's this?
Open it.
-What is it? -Don't get anxious.
I didn't make a heart with beans or anything.
You noticed that?
Hey, I love these!
-Dip it in the sauce. -You should eat too.
I'm okay.
-Thanks for this. -Enjoy.
Jae-eon!
What is it?
It's nothing.
When you said you'd show me your videos,
I thought you'd send them to me through email or message.
I see.
I wanted to see you too.
Right. I'm glad you came.
I got to eat a nice meal too.
Let's watch. I'm curious about your videos.
All right.
Here.
Left ear.
Play.
GRANDSON OF A NOODLE SHOP OWNER DIRECTIONS TO THE NOODLE SHOP
The music is good.
Hey! Isn't this the beach in front of the noodle shop?
Yes, it is.
Gosh. I want to go there too.
-It's kind of weird, right? -No, it's fine.
How do you chop so well?
Nice.
This is amazing.
Stop looking at it.
If you keep looking at it, you'll see the flaws.
I knew it.
You're really talented.
It's nothing. Everyone can do that much.
That again?
Na-bi.
You don't seem to know how talented and charming you are.
What's with the sudden compliment?
You keep saying stuff like that out of the blue.
I'm not the one who doesn't know. It's you who doesn't know me.
Oh, by the way, did you get an assistant?
Yes. Didn't I tell you?
I'm working on it with two juniors from my department.
-I see. -Yes.
I can't bring myself to tell him that Jae-eon is one of them.
Why does it feel like I'm cheating?
That's great.
It's too bad I lost my chance
to help you, though.
Right.
Your class must be starting soon. Go on inside.
No, it's fine. I'll walk you to the main gate.
Are you going back home today?
I'm visiting the restaurant later, so I'm not sure.
Oh, right. The one you worked at?
-Yes. -Okay.
Are you working late again tonight?
Probably.
Isn't it scary at night?
Not at all.
I actually focus better at night.
Thanks for walking me here.
I didn't really do much.
And thanks for watching my videos.
I'll use some of the ideas you gave me.
Okay, then.
-I should get back now. -Okay.
-I'm really going. -Okay.
Thanks for the meal.
Thank you. Go on.
Be careful on the way.
I don't ever want
to disappoint Do-hyeok.
YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SELECTED FOR THE EXCHANGE STUDENT PROGRAM
MY SOL
LET'S EAT DINNER TONIGHT IF YOU'RE FREE SURE, I'M FREE
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHERE ARE YOU?
LET'S WATCH THIS MOVIE WHAT ABOUT THIS WEEKEND?
I…
LET'S WATCH THIS MOVIE WHAT ABOUT THIS WEEKEND?
Aren't you leaving?
You're going?
I have plans. What about you? Are you staying up all night?
I don't know.
Should I just leave too?
Is something up?
No, nothing.
You don't look so good. Don't strain yourself.
-All right. -Bye, then.
Bye.
I really don't feel like working.
You're late. Did you eat dinner?
I did.
I told you not to drink straight from the bottle!
Oh, okay.
You look exhausted.
Was it your part-time job at the academy?
No, I was setting up stuff for the exhibition.
My part-time job is on weekends.
Don't strain yourself. We have to write our thesis too.
By the way, who was your roommate before?
-My roommate? Yun-- -Yun-ji?
Yun-seok, a contemporary art major.
-He went to the military. -Is that all?
Well, before that,
-there was-- -Oh, never mind.
I'm still looking for a room. I'll be able to leave soon.
What's the hurry?
If you're overworking these days because of that…
Jeez. You're at it again.
What?
Why are you so nosy?
You don't need to mind me.
Is that a cat?
Oh, I forgot.
Are you allergic to cats?
No, I'm not. But…
That's a relief.
I've been taking care of this stray cat for a while.
I was waiting for its mother, but she never came.
And it must've been in the rain.
I thought it shouldn't be alone, so I brought it home.
Gosh, you're taking care of animals now?
You're unbelievable.
-Isn't it cute? Do you want to hold it? -Sure.
Oh, my gosh. It's so tiny.
I guess it likes you.
Hey, I'm the one who brought you here.
Have you named it yet?
Not yet. What should I name it?
Let's see.
Congratulations.
You've met a guardian
who is so nosy and full of compassion.
It's trying to go in.
It's so cute.
What?
Yun Sol.
Let's talk for a minute.
I have to meet someone.
Let's talk later.
Who are you meeting at this hour?
It won't take long. I'll be quick.
Well…
I've been thinking about why you're acting like this to me these days.
I think you've changed
since we came back from the workshop.
So I guess
it's because of what I did that night.
What I mean to say is…
I remember what happened that night.
So?
Is that it?
What?
-No, that's not it. -What is it, then?
Well…
I don't know!
I thought you'd say something too.
Do you want to apologize about what you did that night?
What?
Well, I…
I guess you think I should apologize for what I did, then.
If what you did
was just a mistake you need to fix.
What? What do you mean?
Because if you did that with no meaning,
then you're hurting me.
Because…
I like you.
Of course, I like you too.
Not as friends.
Yun Sol. What's going on?
I'm not saying I'll do anything.
And I know very well that you don't like me.
I thought I'd be able to act like nothing happened.
But it's difficult.
I guess I'm the one who needs to apologize.
I'm sorry…
for liking you.
Well…
I'm going to be late. I should get going.
It wasn't meaningless.
So I won't apologize.
But I'm not sure how I feel.
Hey, guys. I'm here.
Hey, Do-hyeok.
How have you been?
Good. Just the two of us.
-What's this? -It's nothing special.
You look really happy.
He's the owner of a restaurant now.
I don't think that's it.
Your face is totally glowing.
I'm in a pretty good mood these days.
What?
-I get it. -What?
You're finally dating someone, right?
It's not that.
-Is it true? Who is it? -No.
That girl from before?
Well…
PARK JAE-EON
Do you want to go see butterflies?
I'll be there soon.
Na-bi keeps looking somewhere else instead of looking at me.
Na-bi. I really wish you were happy.
Do you like him?
Let's not make another mistake.
Maybe Na-bi was already drifting away from me.
Can we meet right now?
If it's not urgent, let's meet next time.
Did you eventually lose to Jae-eon?
Maybe it was all wrong from the beginning.
I can't find a solution.
I miss you.
I'm not used to how I am when I'm with Na-bi.
Have you felt, even once, that he sincerely likes you?
Do you really think this is a mistake?
-Of course. -That's a lie.
Let's go out.
