TRUE TO LOVE

TRUE TO LOVE

ALL CHARACTERS, EVENTS, LOCATIONS, AND
INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

What is it? Is something wrong?

Don't go.

No, you can't go.

What are you saying?

Bo-ra!

Tell me what this is all about.

You promised you'd go with me today.

You said you'd be a catfish.

You said you'd let me use you.

You have to keep your word.

I know where it is.
You should go there first. Okay?

Give me the keys.

She already sent out wedding invitations.

Yet she's lingering around
her ex-boyfriend. Don't you get it?

She's just shaking you up
to finish you off.

It's like sh**ting you again
to make sure you are really dead.

Sticking your nose in others' business
and crossing the line,

are you not done with it yet?

It is my business. I will take care of it.

You still think you broke up
because of me?

So if you give her the ring
you couldn't throw away,

you think you'd get her back?

Is that why you're going?

Who are you talking about exactly?
Aren't you talking about yourself?

"Are you sleeping?"

You said you know it meant nothing.

You'll obviously run into him,
it'd be awkward.

Still, you insist on going there.
For what?

To hear that he's regretting it?

Is that what you expect?

Coming from someone
who's bent over backwards

to win her ex back,
it doesn't sound so convincing.

Or is that why you're so sure of yourself?

Fine. That is why I'm so sure of myself.

A clingy ex who talks about
revenge or lingering love.

She just wants to see her ex
regret it and cry.

To fix her self-esteem
that had hit rock bottom,

even though she knows
how pathetic and low that is.

Whatever. Here it is.

Fine. Go.

Who cares whether you get hurt or not?

It's none of my business.

You can't come back if you go now.

EP 11
CAN'T WAIT FOR WINTER TO COME

Did you drink all that by yourself?

SANG-JUN

You still come over

when I say I miss you.

What a relief.

You'd better stop drinking.

What's the matter?

I tried on wedding dresses today.

I tried so many dresses all day.

But I didn't like any of them.

When I tried on the last one,

I felt dizzy and nauseous all of a sudden.

I came running outside.

But then I burst into tears.

- Su-hyeok, I think...
- Answer it.

No.

He keeps calling you. He's worried.

If I pick it up now,
I think I'll say I can't marry him.

Should I still pick it up?

Do you want me to?

I regret so much

the way we broke up that day.

Over time,

I might regret this very moment
when I still could turn back.

It scares me.

I regretted, too.

I'm regretting right this moment, too.

Unlock the car.

Why are you so tired?

You slept early last night.

I know.

By the way, where were you at dawn?

You were not in bed.

Where would I go?

Where else could I be
besides the bathroom in the house?

You've got a call.

- It's Bo-ra.
- I know.

Hey.

We're leaving now.

Yeon Bo-ra.

Get in.

Okay.

What's going on?

Hi, Jin-woo.

Hey, how are you?

Why are you so down?

Weren't you going with Su-hyeok?

I don't know.

He ran away.

I loved you very much, too.

Maybe more than you did.

I couldn't ask you to be my girlfriend...

because I believed you already were.

If I ever got married,
I wanted to marry you.

That's why I bought a ring
for the first time in my life.

But...

But... that day?

I said I wanted to break up.

What on earth did I do?

I blew it.

I shouldn't have listened to her.

The fact that we broke up
because of someone else,

really...

By the way,

are you okay?

I heard you work with that woman, Deborah.

You get repulsed by that sort of person

who says whatever they like
without a filter.

I know you can't stand
dealing with someone you dislike.

It's not like that.

I got her apology.

I mean...

Not that she owed me an apology.

Then, on that day,

was it because of her?

When I gave you the invitation,

you were cold to me.

I guess that was why.

Did she say that?

That I was two-timing and moved on
with someone else straight away?

If I really did,
how could I possibly see you like this?

That's ridiculous.

Yu-ri.

Let me finish.

The reason why I didn't
take out the ring that day...

was because I didn't want to.

No matter how harshly
you blamed and insulted me,

I would have taken it out if I wanted to.

That was just how far my heart could go.

Had I told you this sooner,

it would've been easier
for you to move on.

That's what I regretted.

That's why I came.

And...

I wanted to sincerely congratulate you
on your marriage.

I longed to hear that you loved me.

Little did I know that
I'd hear it like this.

You couldn't say those words
for four years.

I guess you can now, right?

Yes.

I'm planning to try.

I didn't know you were here.
I looked everywhere for you.

Why didn't you answer your phone...

Hello.

I'm Lee Su-hyeok
I was a senior at her school.

Oh, hello.

Everyone was supposed to gather
to get her invitation today.

But they bailed on her
because something came up.

She's pretty disappointed by that.

There's no need to cry.

It's because you're drunk, right?

After all those years,
you haven't changed.

Is this true?

There's no need to cry.
You cried earlier, you're making me worry.

Is it because of the dresses?

You looked beautiful in all of them.

I couldn't say which was best
'cause you looked gorgeous in anything.

So don't be mad and lighten up, please?

It's not like I'm mad...

Look here!

You look lovely!

Look into each other's eyes.

Beautiful!

There they are.

Eun-ju!

Eun-ju!

Bo-ra!

Jin-woo!

Oh, my gosh.

- You look so beautiful.
- So pretty!

Do I look okay? Thanks for coming.

- Congratulations.
- Congrats.

I'm glad you made it all right.

By the way, are you okay?

You look so distressed.

Who would have thought
you guys would end up that way?

Even I'm upset about it.

Tell me about it.

That's why they say you never know
till you enter the wedding hall.

By the way, you need some touch-up.

Your makeup is all smudged already.

You're saying
this dewy makeup looks greasy...

You're such a jokester!

Ju-mi!

I thought you were bringing
a plus-one today.

Are you by yourself?

Yes, that's how it turned out.

I see.

Anyways, I wish you can feel the joys
that only a happy married woman can feel.

You're not getting any younger.

Well, I'm not really up for it.

Who gets so crazy about marriage
these days?

Staying single is the trend.

I thought so, too.

But people who can,
do get married after all.

Right.

Hurry and go get changed.

- All right. Yu-jeong!
- Yeah?

- Let's go get changed.
- Okay.

Bo-ra!

Consider champagne as a prop.
Let us not drink it.

Today is such a good day.

You know what I mean?

- We'll go get changed.
- Okay.

Honey!

Should I kick her a*s or not?

Don't. Put up with her.

WEDDING OF
HYUN-MYEONG & EUN-JU

There they come.

- Is it everybody?
- Yes.

Let's get started then.

Gracefully. Look at the camera.

Now look at each other and cheers.

Congratulations. What a lovely day.

- Let's go to the next spot.
- Okay.

Bo-ra.

It's a prop.

Have a nice trip.

Look excited.

Wait a moment.

Hi, Ju-wan.

Ju-wan said he's running late
because of work.

He might not make it.

What? Ju-wan?

Is that so?

He's not coming?

Is he avoiding me or what?

I was going to raise hell with him
and make a real scene.

Just kidding.

Let's keep going.

Look lively!

Okay!

Elegantly. Good.

Stand closer.

Like you're best friends.

Bride and groom, show your ring, please.

Bling, good.

Let's go to the pool
and get some glamorous shots.

Here we go. One, two...

Please, groom.

What?

- Smile.
- I see.

Let's do this.

You got this, man.

Here we go. You can do it!

Let's go. One, two...

Groom!

Focus.

You're not the only one who's tired.
Everyone is tired.

I would smile if I could.

What's that?

Smile.

Okay, I will.

- Let's just get this over with.
- What did you just say?

"Get this over with"?

Answer carefully.

- Or this could get ugly.
- What did I do now?

You heard what I said.
Let's just get this over with!

Chill out, man.

Fine, screw this!

Hey, calm down. Wait.

What's with you?

Screw it!

Eun-ju, you're bleeding.

Hey, are you...

Are you okay?

Blood...

You're enjoying this, aren't you?

Not at all.

Not one bit.

Right.

This is the worst.

He's marrying me because I insisted.

Otherwise, I thought he'd never marry me.

We don't do it anymore.

I don't even remember
the last time we did it.

What do I do?

My goodness...

What do I do?

Tell me.

Breaking off an engagement is no big deal
and will lead to a rosy future.

Tell me

that marriage solves everything and
makes you happy without exception.

Please?

Hey, let's go out.

Let me see. Are you all right?

I'm so sorry, honey.

I screwed up. You get a nosebleed

when you're worked up
with low blood pressure.

Whatever! Forget it!

Screw everything.

- You don't want to do it.
- I don't...

want to fight.

We've been fighting constantly lately,
that was so hard.

Let's work this out, shall we?

I will try harder.

What do you mean?

Trying means you're forced to do it.

I am going to try because I love you.

I want to try because I love you.

Despite that, I tried harder.

And everything was getting better.

But you ruined everything.

Trying is not love.

The moment when the bare truth is exposed,

I have to admit

that I'm not okay,

that I wasn't happy with him,

and that our relationship
had already ended a long time ago.

I love you.

For real?

Jeez, I have a nosebleed.

Look at all this.

What's all this?

This one's pretty good, babe.

Whatever.

They're unbelievable...

Hey, Ju-wan.

- Parking?
- Is Ju-wan here?

You can park at the entrance. We did, too.

Okay.

Okay. Hurry up.

What is it?

Ju-wan's here.

Where is she going?

I don't know.

Isn't she going to
go head-to-head with Ju-wan?

- No way...
- No.

- No.
- She can't be.

Hey, that's impossible...

Did you come out to greet me?

Kind of.

You didn't get in trouble
while I was away, did you?

Let's go.

This is my friend who's getting married.

And this is

Lee Su-hyeok, my friend and co-worker.

Let me apologize for Bo-ra.

I should have come sooner
to keep her out of trouble.

- I'm sorry I'm late.
- What's that?

I'm glad you came.

Bo-ra didn't say anything.
I didn't know you'd make it.

Are you still shy to talk about me?

What are you talking about?

He said he couldn't make it
since he had other plans today.

This place looks really nice.

Can you show me around?

Sure.

- Let's go.
- Excuse us.

Sure.

Ju-wan!

Congratulations.

Let's get inside.

Who was that?

Unbelievable.

Come here already.

How did you make it when you're so worried
about your ex who's getting married?

I said I'd come.

So you're a man of your word?

You're holding my hand without asking.

Did you forget?

Catfish effect.

To cause jealousy,

you'd need to do this bit of acting.

So your name is Su-hyeok, right?

Come join us.

- Yes, join us.
- You can have a seat here.

Please do join us.

Okay.

It could use some salt.

Don't we have garlic?

So what's going on with you and Bo-ra?

Us?

Well...

I wonder how I can
describe our relationship.

We share each other's secrets.

We sweat together.

We do many things together.
That's how I'd put our relationship.

Why would you sweat together?

Oh, my.

There is something going on, right?

I like Bo-ra...

a lot.

I'd need to win favor
with her friends, right?

So I guess that's why
you tagged along today.

I assume you don't drink.

No, not with Bo-ra.

When she's drunk, she gets so adorable.

To see that,

I decided not to get drunk with her.

I guess you haven't seen her
wasted all the way yet.

I know.

Why?

That's why I fell for her.

Cute.

Isn't she just adorable?

Adorable indeed.

What's going on?

Just a pretend play.

How did you two first meet each other?

I was in a jewelry store to pick a ring
that I wanted to get.

He was getting a ring for someone.
He had to pick the ring I chose.

He got dumped. So did I.
So two poor and lonely souls met.

Can't tell this long story.

As for the first time I met her,

we ran into each other at a wedding
of our mutual friend a few years back.

Yeah.

I still vividly remember it.

She was in a black dress

and turned toward me.

That moment,

it felt like time passed slowly.
It was in slow motion.

Then when our eyes met,

she took my breath away.

No way. 'Cause she was so beautiful?

Love at first sight?

Something like that, I think.

She was so beautiful
that it was unrealistic.

Way to go, girl.

Who's that guy?

- Su-hyeok?
- Oh, Su-hyeok?

After that brief encounter,

I didn't expect to see her again.

Then after a few serendipitous moments,
we came to work together.

Then it hit me.

"Is this what you call destiny?"

I normally don't believe in destiny.

But I came to believe in
what I didn't believe.

I came to be grateful for everything

that turned our serendipity into destiny.

I've become a changed man
ever since I met Bo-ra.

Come on.

Breaking off an engagement doesn't sound
like a bad idea right now.

Congrats.

- Jin-woo.
- What?

What are you doing?

Now you're scaring me.

Did I get too deep into character?

I'm doing method acting.

Don't go too far.

So cute.

One moment.

So deluded meeting you...

So delighted meeting you.

Same here.

That's one firm grip you got there.
You must be in good shape.

- We'll be off.
- Okay.

- Let's go.
- Sure.

Bye.

What are you doing?

Being a catfish.
I'm doing it right while I'm at it.

What the...

I was outside all day long.

I have a runny nose.

Are you looking for the ring?

No, I was looking for this.

I thought you probably had
thrown it into the river.

I see you didn't.

I was going to, but...

I remembered
all the remaining monthly installments.

So I couldn't dare to.

TV shows and reality
are different, indeed.

So, what are you going to do with
that tiny, sparkly, and expensive garbage?

I'm not sure.

You want to buy it from me?

I know you liked it.

What?

Unopened, brand-new product.

I'll give you a discount.

Are you kidding me?

I'm sorry about earlier.

I just...

didn't want you to go.

I know

that you were worried about me.

So,

did you cry in front of her?

I thought about crying,

but I failed to bring myself to tears.

I went to tell her something,

so that we can have closure.

I went there today

not necessarily because of him.

It's not fair.

I already gave up on the naengmyeon place.

So why do I have to keep distance
from my friends?

Right...

Right.

Looks like autumn is coming to an end.

The smell of the wind
has changed overnight.

You said you were cold
staying outside all day long.

You're going to catch a cold.

Are you sad the seasons are changing?

Nope.

I can't wait for winter to come.

You wanna eat something?

Or coffee first?

I don't know. Isn't there anything else?

Is there anything you wanna do?

I'll think about it.

Okay.

TUNE IN FOR WEBFLIX TONIGHT

You wanted to eat chicken, didn't you?

With chicken and beer,

watching WEBFLIX and hanging out,

that should be fun, right?

So what are you saying?
You want to go to a motel?

What?

Did I say that?

Bo-mi. Car.

Watch out. It's dangerous.

What's wrong?

It's really okay with me.

It's not okay. For 150,000 won.
It's a waste of money. Let's go.

They said weekend rates are all high.
The room is big and it's a suite.

Most of all, I'm really okay with it.

I'm okay even if I spend all I have.

Come on.

Is 150,000 won all you have?

You're going to splurge tonight?

Let's go.
We can order chicken at the Han River.

Okay? Come on.

Let's go.

Always the Han River.

It's cold.

Wait, Bo-mi.

Yes, Jin-woo.

What?

Really?

So you're not coming home tonight?

Yu-jeong either?

It just happened that way.

We could be late due to a traffic jam.

Can you open the store tomorrow?

Don't you worry about a thing.

Jin-woo.

Really love...

Have a really lovely time with your wife.

Okay. Peace!

Hand.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

You were supposed to drive,
how could you get drunk?

You should've told me not to drink
if you were going to drink.

The other ones drank
because they booked a room.

You got no plans or whatever...

Saw what Su-hyeok did?

He didn't drink a drop
in order to give Bo-ra a ride.

Come on, it's nice
to be like old times again.

Yu-jeong.

You trust me, don't you?

I'll just hold your hand in bed.

Yu-jeong.

Are you going somewhere?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I...

Let's just break up.

Jin-woo.

Yeah?

How come we don't do it?

What?

We can do it right now.

No, I'm serious.

I'm asking out of curiosity.

How come we don't do it after marriage?

Well...

Because you can do it at any time
once you're married?

- 'Cause you can do it at any time?
- Yes.

That's the reason why we don't do it...

Does that make sense?

In that case,

what if we didn't get married
and just kept dating?

It would have been different, right?

It's just that

Eun-ju asked me
if marriage makes me happy.

I couldn't say anything.

Not that I'm unhappy now.

I couldn't wait to marry you

because I wanted to have
a romance with you my whole life.

Turns out marriage and romance
are two different things.

To be honest,

I sometimes regret it.

You good-for-nothing...

This way.

Very interesting.

It's quite cozy.

- I know, right?
- Yes.

Give it to me.

Here.

You can sit here.

This is where Jin-woo hangs out
in the middle of the night

hiding from Yu-jeong?

Yes, he said men need some alone time
after marriage.

That's not fair.
Are all men like that after marriage?

You'd be like that too, right?

Never.

I'll be with you all day long.
Don't you worry about it, babe.

Why would I worry about that?

Are you going to marry me?

Of course!

What, you're not going to?

I'll start thinking about it.

But really, I love this space.

- Really?
- Yes.

Let's take over this place.

How?

What?

You think she knows?

No, not yet.

She's got a hunch. She sensed
something's off. Maybe that much.

By the way, where were you at dawn?

You were not in bed.

I knew it.

That's why she put out a feeler.

So, from now on,

you shouldn't come downstairs.

Or I could get kicked out.

- Got it?
- Sure thing.

Good.

Enjoy.

Thanks.

- Jin-h*.
- Yes?

I heard you have a girlfriend.

Is it Ms. Destiny
you were talking about before?

That's why you rejected me.

What a disappointment.

I heard her name is Bom-yi.

When are you going to
introduce Bom-yi to us?

She's a little shy.

Oh, she's a shy person.

Too bad.

Still, make sure to introduce her
if you get a chance.

Okay.

So funny.

NEW POST

"Be first

and be lonely."

EUN-JU HAS SHARED 12 PHOTOS

How cute.

Everybody knows they're seeing each other.

Assuming we really don't know?

Should I keep acting like
I have no idea or not?

I know.

He's so cute.

What?

I'm talking about you.

What's going on with you and Su-hyeok?

There's something going on.

There's nothing.

It's nothing.

I told you before.

That was just a mistake.

So, what is that mistake?

- Did you two sleep together?
- No, we didn't! Just kiss...

We kissed. That's all.

Kiss?

- Keep it down.
- That's really no big deal.

Well, it happens.

When a man and woman
get swept up in the mood when drunk,

they could kiss sometimes.

We weren't drunk.

In a coin karaoke.

You were completely sober?

Where? Coin karaoke?

Yes.

Where young folks go?

Yes.

You two seriously hit it off.

That's not a mistake.

Well, it was me who started it.

Not him.

He said he didn't?

That's odd.

But the way he looks at you
is so romantic.

No, that day, we were just

like Mulder and Scully,

or DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.

That's how we agreed to
define our relationship.

- So you should...
- What's that?

Like...

I see. Whatever.

Let me know when you two sleep together.

You really have to tell me this time.

What time should we meet today?

Sorry, I sent it to the wrong number.

The one I'm meeting today
has the same name as you.

What?

Her name is Lee Bo-ra,
I just saved her first name.

What's this staged show about?

What is this about?

He might have sent it by mistake.

That was what I hoped.

But I kept receiving messages

from him and I couldn't
understand his intentions.

I didn't want to bother to
respond to his messages anymore.

But they were the messages I had to reply.

I checked out your social media.
I see you unfollowed me.

Yes, I did. Why?

I didn't. I wonder if I was supposed to.

Were you near our company yesterday?

Someone told me they saw you there.

I wasn't...

Must be someone who looks like me.

I need to rush to the meeting.

I'll get back to you later.

It's nice outside,
don't you have a date with your boyfriend?

I guess you like him very much.

You're already dating someone.

I can't move on yet.

NOH JU-WAN

DELETED MESSAGE

You got something to tell me,
by any chance?

What is it that you want to tell me?

Can I see you later today?

That day, I didn't get around
to say bye to you properly.

I just wanted to talk with you.

I see.

Well...

How's it going with him?

Not that it's any of my business.

Su-hyeok?

We're not dating.

We got closer through work.

Did you go back to work?

Yes, I'm trying.

Unlike my previous self-help books about
romantic relationships, it's an essay.

It is difficult to write about myself.

But it's fun.

By the way,

you seem to have changed.

Really?

I'm the same.

The thing is, I was really worried
about you that day.

Worried? About what?

You know, to be honest,

everybody there knows about us
and that we broke up not that long ago.

While I was around,

you were touchy-feely with another man,
and publicly displayed affection and all.

I bet they would frown upon it.

Though they didn't say it,
it could undermine your reputation.

That's why I was worried.

I couldn't help but worry.

I see...

I haven't thought about it like that.

But did I do something wrong there?

No.

I'm not saying you did anything wrong.

It's just him.

I understand that he likes you.

But considering that you work together,

he probably thinks
you're a bit easygoing with him,

since you're so nice to him.

That's what I'm concerned about.

Frankly, a lot of men do that
just on impulse,

because of your fame or glamorous looks,

for no reason because you just broke up,

using work as an excuse,
and cross the line when you're off guard.

Seriously...

That's how you see me, I guess.

Anyone who approaches me
is being impulsive, or it's for no reason.

Am I that unattractive?

No, that's not what I meant.

I just don't want you to get hurt anymore.

You don't need to worry about that.

And he's a very good man.

I see.

Okay.

Well...

About what I suggested before.

What do you think?

I suggested that we become friends.

We can do that now, can't we?

Sure. Though we're not besties,

we can reach out to each other
for major occasions.

I think we could do that.

Right.

He has become my past.

The memories are glamorized
and I didn't hate him anymore.

You see, Bo-ra.

What you saw before

was really a mistake.

Believe me. It really was.

Okay.

I answered,
but I didn't believe what he said.

What I have in my memories is true.

And what he did that day
wasn't probably a mistake.

Just as what I did with him
wasn't a mistake.

- What are you doing?
- You scared me!

I'm just taking progress photos.

You've become even prettier.

How pretty are you going to get?

Why are you looking at me like that?

You're going to take my breath away again.

When is that chilling
method acting of yours

ever going to end?

I know.

It's not easy to get out of character.

Despite my mad acting skills,
there was no catfish effect, I guess?

I know.

Maybe the catfish wasn't good.

There's no reaction from the sardine.

On that note, why don't we...

You two look great together.

I hope I didn't interrupt you.

I guess you have a lot of things to do.

Let's catch up later in our meeting.

- Well...
- Let's go...

Don't say another word...

Jeez...

Hey, I bet you guys are dying to
make out again.

Then you'll act like nothing happened.

I shouldn't have told you.

It's somewhat so sexy.

You kiss like animals and go,

"That was a mistake, Su-hyeok."

"I understand, Bo-ra.
You can't resist a man like me."

That's how it goes.

That is exactly what I wanted.

It's not like that. We are...

Yeah, Mulder and whatever.

What exactly does that mean?

I said we're like Mulder and Scully.

He said we're like
DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.

What did I mean by that?

What does he have on his mind?

Let's not get ahead of myself.

Don't be fooled by those romantic eyes.

That's how low you are,

though you'll never admit it.

Hey.

Now that our company has grown,

I think we need to care
more about employee benefits.

So I thought about it.

How about we provide lunch for them?

Food expenses are already covered.

Lunch prices have gone up so much
these days.

If they can enjoy lunch
without anyone feeling left out,

they'll like it, don't you think?

Right.

By the way, who's feeling left out?

You mean U-ri?

Is this because of U-ri?

Why do you care so much about her?

Come on, I don't.

Am I wrong? What you dread the most
is using the company credit card.

Ever since U-ri joined us,

you used it for a uniform, gift cards,
and taxi fare...

You've been spending money like water.

I'm trying to boost company morale,
as the president.

She packs lunch every single day

and commutes for three hours
to work and back.

That's an admirable effort,
and I feel bad as well.

That is why.

I didn't know you're such a generous
Daddy-Long-Legs.

Or what?

What are you getting at?

No, it can't be what I'm thinking.
If you have an ounce of consciousness...

I've thought about the original direction
and concept of the book.

"After heartbreak and break-up,

there has to be a victory again."
It's good till that part.

However, I've started to doubt
whether that victory has to be

getting back with an ex.

Rather than getting back an ex,

something that indicates
growth or a new beginning

with a kind of open ending
lines up more with the trend these days.

I believe it will also contribute to
raising the quality of our book.

How's that sound?

In fact, we've talked about this as well.

What people can relate to
after a breakup is,

"Gone is the beat-up car
and here comes the Mercedes."

Not "Get the beat-up car back"

or "repair and drive the beat-up car."

You could let the beat-up car go
and get a license,

or you could also buy a brand-new car.

Like in the movie 500 Days of Summer,

the ending is like that.

The male lead breaks up with
a woman named Summer.

Then he meets a woman named Autumn
at the end of the movie.

So, after 500 days of summer,

the first day of autumn begins.
How about that kind of ending?

What do you think?

I like it.

The end of summer is
the beginning of autumn.

The last day of summer
is the first day of autumn.

It's an essay, so we should
follow the author's instinct.

One of my friends said
she just cannot wait for your new book.

Young people have a soft spot
for love stories.

Absolutely.

More than your own romantic relationships,

others' love stories and romance
are way more fun.

I totally agree with you.

To me, romance in books

and workplace romance in TV shows

are just so romantic

that I want to experience it myself
so badly.

Well...

I don't think that's possible
because of Sang-jin.

That's right.

He banned workplace romance.

He tells us that
during every staff dinner.

- Really?
- Yes.

Sang-jin.

Is workplace romance
banned in our company?

Workplace... Workplace romance...

Loving your workplace, right?

That's allowed. Definitely.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I just don't get it.

Anyway, U-ri.
It's dangerous to fantasize about romance.

It's very easy to be disappointed.

Right, romantic relationships
can be a real pain.

You always ask about how she slept or ate.

"Are you up? Did you eat?
What did you eat?"

"You must be so tired. Sleep tight."

Even talking about it makes me tired.

Caring about each other sounds so nice.

It's basically to eat,
watch a movie, and drink tea.

Or to watch a movie, eat, and drink tea.
Drink tea, watch a movie, eat.

Romance is all the same. Don't you think?

Eating, having coffee,

and watching a movie.

How odd.

Isn't it such a pain?

Why did you come out?

I'm out on business, so I came out early.

- You want to go with me?
- What's that?

Now you're asking me to go
everywhere with you.

Where are you headed?

I just haven't watched it yet.

500 Days of Summer.

To fully understand
the author's intentions,

I need to. That's why.

So you want to...

You're out on business, you mean...

Yes.

With love, Judy.

Excuse me.

Sang-jin.

What are you doing after work today?

These days, not sure if it's an age thing,

but I don't want to bother to do anything.

I just want to go home
as soon as possible.

The weather is so wonderful these days,
but you feel like that, I see.

I have an idea.

Would you like to go to a movie with me?

To the top.

On your left.

I didn't specifically pick the seats.

You saw me
when I bought the tickets earlier.

Should I go inside?

Sure.

Why I watch the same movie
over and over again.

I get to discover something new.

You were touchy-feely with another man,
and publicly displayed affection and all.

I bet they would frown upon it.

Was he always such a loser?

I'm not saying you did anything wrong.

The woman has clearly expressed

that it was right for the two to break up.

The ending where the main characters
break up was convincing to me.

And I realized that it was a happy ending,
not a sad one.

That was clearly the last day of autumn

and the first day of winter.

TRUE TO LOVE

- Bo-ra.
- Son, I didn't know you were on a date.

Remember what I always tell you?
I'll protect you.

I will really keep that promise.

Are you protecting me from yourself?

U-ri.

I don't deserve it.

I don't deserve to receive your heart.

But... I haven't even told you
my feelings about you.

Hear me out just once.

You must have felt so lonely.

I feel sorry and thankful.

But I feel more sorry than thankful.

I'm thankful and sorry too.

But I'm more thankful than sorry.

- Way more.
- Maybe I'm needy.

Are you going to come closer?

I just hope everyone likes me.

There might be at least one person.

So where in the world is that one person?

Perhaps he's closer to you than you think.

- Why do you do this?
- I don't want to go home early.

- Why do you keep...
- Wanna drink at my place?

- How pretty.
- Doing that?

Why do you keep seducing me?

Would you be seduced if I do?
