Bok Joo.
It is you, Bok Joo.
Why are you here?
Bok Joo! You should've called me if you got here.
She said she wanted to see my school...
before she goes abroad, so I told her to come.
(Haneol Sport University Weightlifting Team)
Jae Yi. Let me explain.
Actually...
Don't tell him.
I'm a student here in the weightlifting team.
I lied about majoring in cello and also about...
going abroad to study.
I'm sorry, Dr. Jeong.
I was also surprised when I first saw her in your clinic.
But what could I do?
Bok Joo begged me to keep it a secret.
You still should have hinted me on that.
I had no idea.
I'm saying I couldn't do that.
- She was so desperate. - What's the reason?
- What? - Why did she...
lie to come to my clinic? She's a weightlifter.
Well, that's...
Maybe she wanted to lose weight.
It looked like she recently started to like someone.
She's a girl, too.
That's understandable.
Anyway, Bok Joo had a very hard time herself.
Her team found out about it.
Her professor and coach got so mad,
and her dad was also furious. It was a total mess.
Really?
Gosh, I feel guilty.
What should I do?
You didn't know anything.
It's her fault that she lied to you.
But she's a strength athlete, and I made her lose weight.
Forget it. It's all over now.
She lied to you about going abroad to study...
because she thought she couldn't go to your clinic anymore.
Just don't mind her.
Who is the guy she likes?
Jae Yi.
What?
I'm hungry.
Why did he come here out of the blue?
It's all over now, right?
He must think I'm nothing but a big liar, right?
This isn't supposed to happen. It's the worst. What should I do?
In order to make a lie true,
you need seven lies.
While a lie produces another lie,
and that lie bears another lie again,
I became a lying machine.
What should I do now?
I'm so ashamed of myself.
(Episode 9, The Merits of a Secret Crush)
Bok Joo!
She's not here, either.
Where did she go? She's not answering her phone.
Did she eat ginseng or something? What's wrong with her?
I'm not sure.
What if she ran into that doctor in spite of our efforts?
It can't be. Joon Hyung took her out safely, right?
- That's what his friend said. - I know.
Then what's the source of that superhuman strength?
- She hurt her back earlier, right? - That crazy girl.
Hey. She stopped. Go and stop her from doing that.
I can't handle her, either. She's like a crazy bull right now.
- Stop it! - Stop!
You're losing your balance as you go on, Si Ho.
Your movements are...
all delayed because you're watching your turn only.
This won't work. Let's play it safe and just do four turns.
No. I'll try it again.
Okay. Keep on practicing for now,
and we will adjust it later if you can't.
That was amazing. Coach, did you see how Soo Bin just did that?
That was amazing.
Why don't you practice your own work instead?
I just wanted to give it a try.
To see how difficult it was.
Hello, Si Eon.
Did Dad leave home?
- Did he take his things, too? - Yes.
He said he'll be in Ulsan.
He found a job there on purpose.
Mom went to work without even looking at him.
People keep visiting the house to see if they want to buy it.
What have you done for us?
I told you to stop this from happening no matter what.
You should have stopped her.
I talked to Mom, but...
If you talk to her once,
did you think Mom would stop?
You should have threatened her,
begged her to stop, or done anything you could.
This happened to us all because of your gymnastics.
Don't look for me.
Si Eon!
No one can stop her. She's lost her mind.
I don't know anymore.
She'll be exhausted before the night ends.
What's wrong with her?
I want to know the reason.
I don't know, either.
She must be dissatisfied about something.
I don't even want to know.
I'm tired of her acting like this.
It looks like she'll stop soon.
My goodness.
Take it off.
Get up.
Oh, my goodness.
I'll die earlier because of this.
Hey.
- Aren't you going to tell me? - It's none of your business.
Knowing won't do you any good. Stay out of it.
Why can't your brother,
who's a gentleman unlike you,
meet Bok Joo?
What? Are you trying to make fun of me?
Since we're getting off campus after a long time,
I prepared something very special for us.
If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, either.
Fine, I don't care anyway.
It's a 3-to-3 date.
They're the queens of Sukyoung Women's University.
One of them is my friend on social media.
She's absolutely beautiful.
She's photogenic like a celebrity.
What do you say?
I don't believe you.
What have we got to lose? Let's check it out.
This might be a great opportunity for us.
Hello, Si Ho.
She's cold like the Ice Queen.
Your grip is too close.
Hold the weight more like this.
Bok Joo, tighten your hands more.
More, more!
Engage your abs more.
That's right. Engage them more.
Engage your abs.
You look out of focus.
- Squat more quickly. - Coach Choi.
You should send them home early.
It's their last weekend before the competition.
Professor Yoon, their weight hasn't increased enough yet.
They need more strength.
- They can't take time off. - That's why.
They should eat some healthy food at home.
Okay, Professor Yoon.
Eat with determination and not for the taste.
Woon Gi must increase by 1kg, and Bok Joo by 1.5kg.
- Understand? - Yes, Coach.
- Yes, Coach. - Go and get some fresh air.
Let your family encourage you.
Relax and eat delicious food.
If you don't increase your weight,
be prepared to eat 10 meals a day, okay?
Yes, Sir.
Isn't it difficult to increase your weight?
It's okay. I'm not the only one having a hard time.
If you're tired of eating protein,
add eggs and make bread with it.
Sang Chul told me about it, so I tried.
I like it because of the texture.
Okay, I'll try it.
- Are you going home? - Not yet.
Someone is picking me up.
- Goodness gracious. - I'll try it.
You can't just leave after messing up the seat.
It's only some milk powder.
I don't need to pay for laundry, do I?
Bok Joo, I have to get going.
See you, Woon Gi.
Since you're English Literature majors,
traveling abroad wouldn't be a problem, right?
Aren't you fluent in English like native speakers?
That's not true.
You don't swim across the Pacific Ocean because you're a swimmer.
Cross the Pacific Ocean?
You have such a great sense of humor.
Are you...
usually this quiet?
Yes, compared to him.
In which category do you compete?
Is it short distance?
Yes, that's why I don't talk much.
Gosh, he's a short-distance swimmer.
(Chubs)
Excuse me for a moment.
Isn't this Bok Joo who's incredibly busy?
Thank you so much for calling after missing three of my calls.
Where are you? Are you home already?
No, I'm out.
Was Dr. Jeong shocked yesterday?
- What did he say? - Good job for asking me only now.
I'm sure you were itching to find out.
Are you at school?
Hey.
Hey, Chubs!
Gosh!
Why didn't you say anything? You startled me.
Goodness, why did you startle me?
What are you doing?
Why did you make holes in the face of someone innocent?
It's because I was getting bored of waiting.
What did Dr. Jeong say?
You ask me that so early.
Weren't you itching to find out?
He probably thought that I was just crazy...
and stupid.
That's not necessarily true.
He was just flustered.
Of course he would be. He found out that his patient is...
a professional weightlifter.
He asked why you had to lie to him.
I made up an answer.
I said maybe you have a crush on someone.
Did you tell him who it was?
I have common sense, too. Why would I tell him that?
Does he think I'm pathetic?
No, I don't think so.
He was just flustered.
If I hadn't told him that I was a cellist,
I wouldn't have been such a crazy liar.
Why did I ever say that I played the cello?
I even went to a concert with him.
Watch it.
You were happy to go on a date with him.
Are you blaming me for it now?
You can't do that!
I wasn't blaming you. I was just saying.
What's wrong with you?
Have you lost your mind?
Why am I so unlucky?
I don't care about weightlifting.
I want to turn into a puff of smoke and disappear from Earth.
Turning into a puff of smoke...
would be impossible.
You weigh too much.
I'm sorry.
Being playful is becoming a habit.
I'll be careful from now on.
Do you want to go relieve stress?
Come on, hurry up.
- Let's stop. - We almost died, didn't we?
Bok Joo, watch me carefully.
I'll set a new record.
What do you think? No one can break my record for three years.
Not even...
a male weightlifter can break it.
I set another record.
Come on, does it hurt?
- Why doesn't it work? - Be careful.
- You might break your fingers. - Gosh!
It's not coming back up. I think it's stuck.
Gosh, I told you to be gentle.
- Why doesn't this work? - Hey, stop it.
- Hey, get up. - Why?
Be quiet. Just get up.
Why should I?
- Excuse me. Excuse me! - Run!
I hate running so much.
Why do I always run when I'm with you?
I'll become a track and field champion in no time.
You're an athlete. Shouldn't you be better at controlling your emotions?
What are you talking about? I still have so much stress to relieve.
Hey, do you know if there's a boxing gym nearby?
Are you good at boxing?
Bok Joo, shall we just go grab a drink?
Drink?
I have a feeling that I'll drink a lot if we go for drinks now.
(Mom)
- Hello? - Si Eon didn't come home yesterday.
It looks like she took some clothes with her, too.
- Hey, where are we going to sleep? - I have no idea.
- Goodness. - Do we have any money?
We have no money. Gosh, I'm annoyed.
- We have nothing? - None.
What? Did we spend it all?
Gosh, what does she want?
- What's she doing here? - I'm so annoyed.
Who is she?
Guys, don't mind her. Let's go and...
Don't tell Si Eon that I told you.
One of her friends ran away from her family.
She said she'd stay with her for a little while.
What are you doing now?
Gosh, why are you being like this?
Why do you even care? It's my life.
Are you saying that I should just watch you ruin your life?
Since when were you so interested in my life?
- Don't act like you care. - Just come with me.
Taxi.
Get in.
- Gosh, seriously. - Just get in.
- Hey. Open this! - Sir, please go. I don't know her.
Hey, Si Eon!
Look at the way you drink.
- You drink like an old man. - Shut it.
Right now, I can't afford to worry about how I look.
Hey, let me fill up your glass.
Yes, that's what friends are for.
A friend must help me let it all out when I feel like crying...
and let me get drunk when I want to get drunk.
Gosh, why does this taste so weak today?
This isn't enough to get me drunk.
Hey. Don't do that, please.
Hey, don't. Goodness.
Here. Eat this.
Excuse me. We'd like another bottle.
Excuse me!
(Haneol Sport University)
Is that you, Si Ho?
What are you doing alone here?
Nothing. I had to go somewhere.
I just finished my practice.
I'm going to play pool with my friends.
Well... Can I join you guys?
I'll just watch.
Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
I keep drinking, but I'm still so sober. I'm not even tipsy.
I'm not sure about that. I think you're a little drunk.
Not at all. I'm completely sober.
Look at this.
I don't even get drunk when I'm determined to get drunk.
I was going to focus on my training,
and I got distracted by something so random.
The guy I like doesn't like me back.
The guy whom I don't like doesn't like me, either.
Right. Life is certainly not easy.
Hey, Joon Hyung.
Do you know when things started going wrong?
- The dressing table. - Dressing table?
My dad found it on the street and brought it.
If he hadn't brought it home,
I wouldn't have had to walk by that intersection.
If I hadn't walked by there, I wouldn't have met Dr. Jeong.
No, no. That's not really true.
- It's you! - Me?
If you weren't his brother, things wouldn't...
have gotten this complicated. You have to fix everything!
Hey, why are you blaming everything on me?
Did I tell you to fall for him?
You're right.
You didn't tell me to like him.
It's all my fault.
Joon Hyung. By the way,
do you know what really started this fate?
You're going to talk about fate now?
- What is it? - The dressing table.
My dad found a dressing table and brought it home.
If he hadn't brought it home,
I wouldn't have had to walk by there.
If I hadn't walked by there, I wouldn't have met Dr. Jeong.
So...
- you have to fix everything! - Hey, you're drunk. Let's go now.
- Get up. - Gosh, I'm not drunk.
But...
do you know when things started going wrong?
Yes. Everything was caused by either the dressing table or me.
How did you know?
Look at you. You're quite clever.
Hey, what's your IQ? Is it over 100?
Hey, no! Gosh!
Why is this girl so extreme even when she drinks?
I was not mentally prepared for this.
Gosh, I'm exhausted.
Fix everything, Joon Hyung.
You have to take responsibility for everything!
Hey, what more can I do?
You have to fix everything.
Fix everything...
Hey, you can't throw up now. Do not throw up, please!
Try to hold it, please.
Gosh, I'm cold...
Are you cold?
Look at this. Newspapers...
happen to be lying around right here.
Bok Joo.
This will help.
Why is she sleeping with her eyes open?
Gosh, Bok Joo. Let's put your hand over this.
This hand, too.
You'll learn what a difference a piece of newspaper can make.
Hey. Goodness.
Take responsibility for everything.
What are you talking about? I've done more than enough.
She passed out.
How can someone look like this?
Gosh, it's so cold.
Hey, Bok Joo. Bok Joo, let's go now.
Get up already.
How am I going to carry her?
(Plus Supermarket)
My mom would be so proud of me if she sees this.
Sir, where are we going now?
Wake up already, Kim Bok Joo!
Thank you for calling Bok Chicken.
Half and half? No problem. Dad, half and half!
How long will it take to get to your place like this?
Take responsibility for everything, Jeong Joon Hyung...
Enough is enough.
Hey. You're actually awake now, aren't you?
I'm getting carsick. Please drive slowly.
Bok Joo. You wench!
Goodness.
Be careful. Be gentle with her.
Yes, be really careful.
- Do it slowly. Be careful. - Jeong Joon Hyung...
You punk! I said put her down easy.
Take out the thick blanket.
She shouldn't be cold.
- My gosh. - You punk.
You always...
scold her, but you love her so dearly, don't you?
How much did she drink to get knocked down like this?
Do you think...
she drank with that guy alone?
Until a late hour like this?
What are you trying to say? Shut your mouth.
Take responsibility for everything,
Joon Hyung.
For what?
I'm going to kill him!
That little...
Are you saying...
you've done nothing...
- to take responsibility for? - Of course.
- Are you sure? - We're just friends.
We went to the same elementary school.
We all know that,
but you never know what will happen between a guy and a girl.
A friend can become a boyfriend, and a boyfriend can become a baby daddy.
Gosh, that won't happen.
We're just friends.
That will never happen.
I swear it won't happen.
- Do you swear? - Yes, I swear.
Why would you swear?
What's wrong with my dear Bok Joo?
She doesn't dress up because she's busy training,
but if you look at her closely, she has such a pretty face.
Excuse me?
Chang Geol. Come here for a second.
You sound like a psycho right now.
Please pick a side and stick with it.
Is that so?
Okay.
Anyway,
this applies not only to Bok Joo but also to you, too.
You're an athlete. Your body is your asset.
You shouldn't stay out late and make your friend drink.
You won't become the top player this way.
Don't you have dreams?
I'm sorry.
Are you really?
Yes.
Can I go home now?
Try to understand him.
It may not seem that way,
but my brother is very protective of Bok Joo.
She's his only daughter.
After his wife died young, he must've felt so bad for Bok Joo.
I see.
I'll get going, then.
Okay. See you later. Oh, wait.
Here. Take a cab with this money.
Bok Joo must've exhausted you.
No. I can take the bus.
It's disrespectful not to accept it.
Actually,
I'm in favor.
- Pardon? - I'm in favor of you two dating.
Let's have a drink sometime later,
Bok Joo's future husband.
No, it's not like that.
I'll be going now.
Gosh, l should go.
Joon Hyung.
- Yes, Jae Yi. - Where have you been?
I just came out to go to the supermarket.
You're lying.
Jae Yi.
Mom is angry, isn't she?
She doesn't know. I told her you came home late,
and you're asleep now.
That's good. I wasn't sure if I could take her nagging.
Where have you been?
- Were you drinking? - I didn't drink much,
but Bok Joo drank too much...
when she can't even drink and got knocked out.
So I took her home.
- Did you drink with Bok Joo alone? - Yes.
You should go.
I'll sneak in and get some sleep.
Okay. I'll see you.
You're causing all kinds of trouble these days.
You made me cook hangover soup for you.
We have tons of alcohol here.
Why did you go out to drink?
And even with a guy.
I'm sorry, Dad. It won't happen again.
Eat it slowly. I'm heating up the boiled pork.
It's too early to have boiled pork.
Sure. Having boiled pork in the morning will help me put on weight.
Our dear Bok Joo.
I actually...
like him as your future husband.
- What? - To improve the seed of our family,
I think we need a handsome guy like him.
Forget it. Nothing will happen between me and him.
He's already seen things he shouldn't have.
"He's seen..."
"things he shouldn't have?"
What are you thinking?
It's not like that.
It's fine. I can understand that.
We're living in the 21st century.
Things can happen when a grown man and a woman drink together.
You're two vigorous youths.
I'm not an old-fashioned person.
Just admit it.
I told you it's not like that. We just drank.
It's true.
Fine. I guess you're too shy.
Okay, then. I'll tell you first.
I lost my virginity when...
Gosh, Dad!
- I was... - Stop Uncle!
- Dad! - What did he do now?
- He's a pervert! - What did you...
say to her?
- Dad. - Eat up.
What time did you get home, Joon Hyung?
Right after you went to bed.
Gosh, you must've drunk a lot.
I can smell alcohol from your clothes.
Don't you know I grew up in this neighborhood?
Keep this up, and everyone will say my son always stays out late.
Gosh, Mom. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mom. I really am.
My gosh. You're so sly.
When are you going back to school?
After I'm done eating. Why?
Your dad keeps saying he feels listless these days.
I was going to go and buy milk vetch roots.
Gosh, a daughter will be perfect for this kind of things.
What about you, Jae Yi? Do you have plans?
Yes. Ah Young is buying a stereo, and she wants me to look at it.
- I can cancel it, though. - Ah Young?
Then you should go and help her.
I can go to the market by myself.
You should go. Go and help her.
I'm fine.
- Don't forget your medicine. - Yes, Mom.
Woon Gi.
- Hello. - Coach Choi.
You punched a taxi driver? Why?
Goodness.
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
I'm sorry.
After a careful consideration, we registered our marriage...
and gave birth to our child.
I just couldn't tell you.
You're right. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to say it, too.
You brat.
You have a wife and a child.
Why did you hit someone? What were you thinking?
He swore at my wife.
- I couldn't stand it. - My gosh.
It looked like he's holding out thinking he hit the jackpot.
For now,
let's try to settle it with the money I got.
No, Coach. I'll figure out something and...
How are you going to make 3,000 dollars? Do you have money?
Your wife is working because you can't even afford...
her to stay in a postnatal care center.
I'll make sure...
to pay you back that money.
Of course you will.
- Have you named your baby yet? - We named the baby Soon Ri.
We wanted the baby to go with the flow and live in comfort.
That's a good name.
Hey, Soon Ri's dad.
If you ever keep a secret from me again,
I will kill you.
Hello? Hi, it's me.
It's about the money you borrowed from me before.
Can you pay me back this month?
If you're going to put it in the infirmary,
I think a Bluetooth stereo would be better.
It's more convenient.
Do you think so?
But there're so many kinds. I don't know which one to pick.
I think this is better than the one we saw earlier.
Is that so?
I should listen to the expert, then.
I'll take this.
- Okay. Please have a seat and wait. - Okay.
There're so many.
Since you recommended it,
you should install it, too.
- For free. - Gosh.
Now I know why people get conned without realizing.
I'll buy you an expensive meal instead.
Oh, by the way,
do you know someone named Kim Bok Joo...
in your school's weightlifting team?
Bok Joo?
She's the ace of her team. She's the tall one.
I mentioned a patient who asked me about Messi. Do you remember?
I do. You said it was memorable.
That patient is the student I just asked about.
What? That can't be true.
Why would a weightlifter go to a weight clinic?
She told me she was a cellist.
But I bumped into her at school.
That's how I found out that she does weightlifting at your school.
That's so strange.
Joon Hyung said it's because she has a crush on someone.
Also, Bok Joo went to elementary school with Joon Hyung.
Really? What a small world.
Who does she have a crush on?
She has a regular schedule, so she doesn't meet many men.
Does she like Joon Hyung?
After all, he's popular at school.
He's popular among many freshmen girls.
Is that so?
They seemed quite close.
- They drank until late last night. - Really?
Maybe it's him.
Why do I feel excited? I hope they get together.
Thank you, Jae Yi.
I took a lot of your time, so I'll treat you to anything you choose.
Tell me.
Do you want spaghetti or pasta?
My hourly rate is high. What's something that's expensive?
Just say what you want.
Bok Joo.
Hello, Dr. Jeong.
Bok Joo, I heard about what happened.
You caused such a big trouble. It must have been so much fun.
See you later.
You still have some time. Let's go eat together.
- Call Joon Hyung, too. - Excuse me?
No, it's okay.
You should join us. I wanted to treat you to a meal.
Let's go.
- Let's go. - Get in.
- How about a steak? - Let's eat steak.
You love meat.
- What else? - How about soup?
Let's order a salad for...
- Bok Joo. - A salad?
Right, you can eat something else.
How about...
How about this one?
Jae Yi, Dr. Go.
- Hello. - Over here, Joon Hyung.
Why are we meeting together?
Jae Yi set up the sound system. We met Bok Joo on our way to eat.
I didn't know you two went to the same elementary school.
It's not something to brag about.
It turns out that Bok Joo was the one...
who asked Jae Yi about Messi.
I was so surprised.
I had no idea.
It's a lot of food. Help yourselves.
Enjoy, Jae Yi. Thank you for your help.
Thank you for the food.
Thank you.
I can't help but ask questions about things I'm curious about.
May I ask you a question?
Do you have a crush on someone at our school?
Well, I...
I...
Stop it. You're invading her privacy.
Right, I'm sorry for being nosy.
Since when were you close to Joon Hyung?
I've been working at the school over a year,
but I had no idea.
We met again only recently.
- He's changed so much. - Really?
I bet you were surprised.
He used to be so small, but now he's all tall and grown up.
My heart would have fluttered if I were you.
Speaking of which, you two look great together.
Is it because they're both tall?
I guess so.
Come on, Dr. Go. You're exaggerating.
Do you realize how unnatural you sound?
No, I'm not exaggerating.
- You two look great together. - Come on.
Let's stop talking and eat. The food is getting cold.
- Let's eat. - Okay.
Are you telling me to shut it and eat? Fine.
Come On.
Here you go.
- What? - It's a rib.
- It's so delicious. - Here you go.
Here's one for you, Bok Joo.
It's okay.
- Please take one. - Here.
Here you go.
Enjoy.
You have to try it.
Look how meaty it is.
Eat it with the pasta.
- Try it. - You like this, don't you?
- Thank you for the food. - Thank you for the food.
Thank you for the food.
You helped me today, so I'll give you a ride.
Do you want a ride, too? I can drop you off.
- It's okay. We can walk. - Okay.
You'll look great walking together.
- See you later. - Take care. See you again, Bok Joo.
Dr. Go's assumption was wrong, don't you think?
That's not important.
It doesn't matter.
Come to think of it,
it turned out for the better.
What do you mean?
The lunch we had today.
I felt uncomfortable about how we parted last time.
Now, I feel like things came to a close.
All I have to do is concentrate on my competition.
Can you get ready for the competition when you sound so weak?
That's true.
Why do I feel so listless and empty?
I'm not sure.
By the way, Dr. Go and Dr. Jeong looked great together.
They seemed close.
It's because they're colleagues from medical school.
They're on the same level.
Dr. Go is pretty.
She has a great personality, and she's a doctor.
You're good, too.
You're healthy.
Is that supposed to make me feel better? You're terrible.
Do you want to eat something?
We just had lunch.
I don't eat all the time.
How about...
watching a movie?
Or go to a club?
How about a drive to the sea?
Can you drive?
- Do you have a car? - I have a car that isn't mine.
It won't take long to get to the sea.
No, it's too far away. Forget it.
Come on, let's go to the sea.
You lose if you don't, rock-paper-scissors.
Let's go.
- Can we go? - Yes, we can.
Hey, you look very aggressive.
Do you want to get in?
Isn't this Dr. Jeong's...
It is, but it's also mine.
I've been driving it secretly for some years.
I have the emergency key. I'm sure Jae Yi knows that I drive it.
Can you drive well?
Of course, I'm the best driver.
Where's the seat belt?
Put on the seat belt.
- I wonder if this is okay. - Okay.
To come back by midnight, we don't have much time.
Hold on tight. There won't be any turning back.
What do you think? Don't I drive well?
You drive like a beginner. I'm getting motion sickness.
It's perfect how it keeps me alert.
This is all a strategy.
It's hard to pretend like I'm bad at driving.
Either way, it's good to be out.
Aren't you glad that you listened to me?
Do you regret...
lying to Jae Yi about weightlifting?
No.
Even if I were to go back in time,
I would have lied again.
Why? Aren't you proud of your weightlifting?
What's wrong with a woman who does weightlifting?
Of course, I'm very proud of myself...
as a professional weightlifter.
A woman who does weightlifting...
may be impressive, but she isn't exactly beautiful.
What's the difference?
Here's the difference.
The senior female weightlifters who have boyfriends...
don't usually invite their boyfriends to competitions.
We lift heavy lumps of metal.
In that moment,
we can't help but show our veins popping out,
our faces getting red, our double or triple chins,
and our belly fat sticking out from the belt. It's so ugly.
We say that our looks aren't everything.
Being dedicated to achieving our dream is...
more important.
However, it's not something we want to show to the guy we like.
So in some ways,
choosing to be a weightlifter...
might mean that I have to...
give up living as a woman to a certain extent.
That's what I've been thinking.
That is complete nonsense.
You just have to meet a guy who can even love that about you.
It's easier said than done. It's hard to find a guy like that.
Hey, they exist. Take me for an example...
Hey, did you see those seagulls over there?
There's a flock of them. Did you see?
- Over there. Oh, my. - I have to look straight ahead.
Do you want to do that thing?
What's it called? The boat where you can...
feed seagulls. Is this off-season for it?
Hey, I have to drive. I can't look around right now.
You haven't done it? You're so lame.
- What a loser. - Choose between seagulls and me.
Seagulls.
Let me ask you one last time. Seagulls or me?
Hey.
Do you want to go for barbecue?
Look at the ocean! The sea breeze feels so nice.
Hi, seagulls!
Have you never been to a beach or what? Stop acting so lame.
I've been so stressed out, but being here has totally refreshed me.
I should really be here with a boyfriend.
It'd be so romantic to play silly games...
and write each other's names in the sand.
Hey, aren't you a little too old for that?
You're so immature.
Grow up already, will you?
Hey.
- Hey, hey! - Try and catch me!
You!
Hey, Joon Hyung!
I need head support. Let me use your arm.
Chubs, is it because you lift heavy weights?
Even your head is heavy.
Get a taste of this.
I actually tasted death.
It was for fun. Why did you have to get all feisty?
You know how competitive I can be.
You're actually a pretty good runner.
I ran away to survive.
You little...
I've shown you all sorts of things.
How did this happen?
So? Do you think it's unfair?
Of course I do.
I've told you everything about me,
but all I know about you is your trauma.
I don't know anything else.
Okay!
Then I'll tell you something, too.
When we were in elementary school...
Ouch! Who pulled my hair?
Whose chocolate is this?
- I don't know. - What is it?
I'll eat it if it doesn't belong to anyone!
- Okay! - Go ahead.
- Can I really eat it? - Yes!
Someone used to put chocolates and candies on your desk, right?
It was me.
Seriously?
Did you have a crush on me?
Goodness, you're overreacting again.
You saved my life, you know.
I wanted to thank you.
I also thought you were cool.
You know how timid I used to be back then.
But you got along with other kids so well,
and you were always brave...
and strong.
That was nothing special.
It wasn't even a big secret.
You want something bigger?
Gosh, I thought it was a pretty big secret.
Then I'll let you in on a huge secret.
Yes, please. Tell me everything.
It's about Jae Yi.
He's not really my brother.
He's actually my cousin.
The people whom I call my parents now are actually my uncle and aunt.
When my mom got remarried,
she left me with my uncle and aunt.
Then she moved to Canada.
Is that why you transferred to a different school all of a sudden?
That's what happened.
I couldn't even say goodbye to you.
Hey.
Don't give me that pitiful look.
It wasn't too bad.
My uncle and aunt have been so good to me,
and Jae Yi couldn't have been any sweeter to me.
You see, my personality has changed so much.
I wouldn't have changed like this if I had an unhappy childhood.
You know,
everyone keeps...
a few painful wounds buried in his or her heart.
If they can move on, it's great.
Even if they can't, they still live.
They become numb to the pain with time.
You'll be fine soon, too.
You're right.
I already feel much better than earlier.
You have a match in two weeks, right?
Tackle what's in front of you first,
then just wait.
Time will take care of everything.
One good thing about having a crush on someone...
is that I get to decide when to end it.
My feelings have been out of my control,
but I've decided to tame my heart as of today.
You've been a good sport, my heart.
You were definitely...
passionate enough.
(D-7 to the tournament)
Good, you're doing great.
Flex your stomach. Flex! More.
Keep going.
The gold medal goes to Kim Bok Joo!
Gold medal!
(D-6 to the tournament)
(D-5 to the tournament)
- I'd love it if you can gain more. - This is good, Bok Joo.
Keep up the great work, okay?
(D-4 to the tournament)
(An adequate amount of effort is never enough.)
(D-3 to the tournament)
Here it comes. Eat this, too. Eat up.
Oh, there's more. There's one more dish.
(The day before the tournament)
Hey, you did it.
This is good enough. Professor, look.
See? I knew it.
I told you that it had to be Bok Joo.
You just have to maintain your condition.
I have really good instincts!
Isn't the tournament today?
Yes.
Good luck.
I really mean it.
Oh, no. I have to wear this today.
What should I do?
I knew that you'd be here, Bok Joo.
Hey, you.
How are you feeling? Do you feel ready?
No, I feel horrible.
I think I'll be terrible today.
I even spilled my protein shake on my lucky shirt this morning.
I'm getting a bad feeling.
What if I make a mistake?
Bok Joo.
The ace of Haneol's weightlifting team.
You won't make any mistakes.
You've been training so hard, and you're such a strong person.
Not everyone gets to be the ace, you know.
All right, then. Go get on the bus now.
I'll be there later to cheer you.
All right.
Go!
Go, Bok Joo!
I'm rooting for you!
You need to march triumphantly.
You're going there to win.
It's new. Why is it breaking already?
- Did we get scammed? - It was working fine.
Did you not plug this in properly?
Hey, do you think I'm an idiot?
That's the first thing I checked.
I tried pressing all the buttons, but I just can't get it to work.
Oh, the power bar.
I didn't think to check that.
It works fine.
Do you want to grab food with me?
No, I have to visit Dr. Kang's new clinic.
Are you going, too?
No, I'm working the night shift today.
The other doctor has to work at a weightlifting match today.
Is there a weightlifting match today?
Bok Joo will compete, too. It's at the Olympic Stadium.
Isn't Dr. Kang's hospital near there?
Yes. I think so.
(2016 National Weightlifting Championship)
Go, Woon Gi!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
- Yes! - You can do it!
Woon Gi! Just go with the flow!
Let's go!
The judges agree...
it's a success.
Bok Joo.
- It's time. - Break a leg, Bok Joo.
Be calm, and do it as you always do.
The next contestant is...
Kim Bok Joo from Haneol Sport University.
It's her third and final attempt in the clean and jerk.
That's right, Bok Joo.
Everything depends on this one shot.
Don't be nervous.
You're strong.
You can do this.
Don't doubt yourself. Just focus on the barbell now.
Dr. Jeong?
- You can do it, Bok Joo! - Let's go!
Bok Joo.
What are you doing, Bok Joo? Get in there now.
We lift heavy lumps of metal.
In that moment, we can't help...
but show our veins popping out, our faces getting red,
our double or triple chin,
and our belly fat sticking out from the belt. It's so ugly.
It's not something we want to show to the guy we like.
What is it? What happened?
(Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo)
Why can't you see that your consideration...
for others can hurt their feelings?
I hope I didn't hurt your feelings.
I see. If I like someone, he won't like me back.
It puts him in a difficult position.
Who would think you're pretty when you're so embarrassed of yourself?
Have you seen Bok Joo? She suddenly disappeared.
- What's the matter with you? - Joon Hyung.
Why do you keep making me feel uneasy?
Why do you make me worry about you, Bok Joo?
