01x08 - Episode 8

Post by bunniefuu »

-Koo Yeon-jun.

-Oh, Tae-ha, there you are.

I'm only a little late.

Here. It's a little present

since you always save me a seat.

TOP CLASS CSAT RETAKE ACADEMY

So, Tae-ha,

for a long time now, I…

Hey, Tae-ha,

for a really long time now, I…

Hmm.

Hey, Koo Yeon-jun.

Why didn't you wake me up?

Oh, the CSAT sucks.

I'm done with studying.

I'll have to take it

three times just to pass.

I… Ta…

Hey, Yeon-jun.

I make my way to this cram school

because I want to study with you.

-Why do you think that is, huh?

-Why?

I drive three hours through traffic,

even thought there's

a cram school near my house.

Whose fault do you think it is

that I choose to come here to be with you?

Is… is it my fault?

Yeon-jun, do I really have to, um,

spell this all out for you entirely?

Jeez, you're so frustrating.

So what are we gonna do with you, huh?

Um, well, what do you mean by that?

Let's get going.

TOP CLASS ACADEMY

What's this? Is this your car?

No, it's my mother's.

I drove it from her house just now.

It's only been a week

since you got your license though.

That's why I should

practice driving then, yeah?

Hurry up. Let's get out of here.

Otherwise, I'll die from boredom.

Quit looking at the map, okay?

You're not here to read the entire way.

We need to map out where we are going

since you're not used to driving yet.

If we end up getting lost,

we'll be in Busan eventually,

so don't worry about anything, okay?

Shall we spend

the night together out there?

Huh?

You're totally nervous

because you're such a novice driver.

You got some nerve.

Nervous? Don't be ridiculous.

I've got this totally under control.

Forget it. Grab a C…

a CD out from inside there?

A CD?

Uh, I don't see any CDs.

Oh really? There should be. My mom

definitely left a few in there for us.

No CDs at all. Nope, sorry.

No, look again.

There has to be a few right there. See?

There… there definitely are.

I'm positive my mom put CDs in there.

I'm sure.

A TIME CALLED YOU

Um, hello? Ah, it's Ye-ji's mother.

Yes.

Oh, her tutoring?

Uh…It's okay, seriously.

Don't worry, okay?

Yes, I'll be right over.

Okay.

RESIDENT REGISTRATION CARD

KOO YEON-JUN

Are you sure about this?

Not enough time has passed

since the car accident.

Do you really have to move away

from home already, Yeon-jun?

Why don't you just study here

and commute back and forth?

Driving back and forth

is just a waste of time, you know.

I need to move.

That way I'll be able to study harder.

Oh, Yeon-jun.

Don't worry too much, okay?

I promise I will take

really good care of myself.

I promise I'll call you every day.

But it's time for me to move on.

Ah, I'll really miss you.

You better study hard.

If you begin to miss home at all,

please call me right away, hmm?

-Got it? Okay?

-Sure thing.

Hey, Mom,

it's not like he's leaving forever.

Off you go.

I'll be all right.

-See you later.

-Uh-huh. Take care of yourself.

Mmm.

OPENING SPECIAL

1,000 WON DISCOUNT FOR AN AMERICANO

Sorry, we're closed for the day.

I bought you an opening-day gift.

So pretty please, can I see inside?

Si-heon, it's you!

I told you. It's Koo Yeon-jun now.

I've been meaning to ask you,

27 was in the name of your record shop

and now your café.

But what does the number mean?

Jimi Hendrix.

Jim Morrison, Janice Joplin, Kurt Cobain.

Back in my day,

there was something called the 27 club.

It's a list of artists

who died prematurely at the age of 27.

-That's what I was inspired by.

-Hmm.

Twenty-seven's too young to die.

It's very young.

And yet, despite the fact

they left us a long time ago, I wonder

what their music would be like

if they hadn't left us too soon, you know?

But even though

they're no longer with us,

we'll always remember who they were to us.

Exactly.

I can't help but love their music anyways.

Oh, so what are you

planning to do next, Si-heon?

I'm gonna attend an art academy

to prepare for the college exam.

That reminds me.

Any part-time job openings here?

It's to pay the academy tuition fee

and basic living expenses.

So an art academy.

Wait, by any chance…

Yes, I want to go to Jun-hee's university.

I've been thinking a lot.

Ever since I time traveled here, I, uh…

I realized I can't be Nam Si-heon

in this life anymore.

I have to be Koo Yeon-jun now.

Jun-hee said that the two of them met

while attending

the same university together, you know.

So your plan is to do what she said?

Mmm. Yes.

I really need to make sure

I'm the Koo Yeon-jun she, uh,

will remember by the year 2023.

If I can do this,

I'll be able to reverse

what happened in the past.

That day on October 13th, um, in 1998.

I need to

make sure I won't fail.

All right, a part-time job it is.

No problem.

You start tomorrow, okay?

Thank you so much.

Si-heon, wait.

These are some of Min-ju's things I found

while sorting through her belongings.

For some reason they tugged at my heart,

and I couldn't bear to throw them away.

But now that I think about it,

they're your memories too.

SOOSEONG ACADEMY

MAIN CAMPUS

Gerunds and to infinitives

are called noun equivalents,

and are pretty similar to a noun.

Uh, help.

Can you show me

how the light reflects from this angle?

Like this. See right here?

Here's where the light…

Thank you for coming. Merry Christmas.

The results must be out now.

Hey, Chi-won, I'm here.

-Oh, you're finally here.

-Let me do it.

-Whoa, you got in!

-Mm-hmm, I got in!

-Hey!

-I got in!

Hey, congratulations!

Hey, Jun-hee.

Uh…

Were you waiting long?

Hey, freshman, are you

interested in joining our dance club?

-All right, bye, Jun-hee.

-Okay, see you both tomorrow. Bye.

-Hey, Min-ji!

-Hey, you're here.

-Good work. Go and grab something to eat.

VOLUNTEERING CLUB, ONSAEMIRO

RECRUITING NEW MEMBERS FOR 2008

Uh, hello there.

So are you here to join our club today?

Sorry?

Yes.

Have a seat, why don't you?

Hello again.

So are you a freshman?

I'm guessing you must be.

Yes, I'm class of '08. I'm an art major.

Oh, so you're an art student here.

So what about you?

I'm in the class of '07.

I'm in the school of business.

My name is Han Jun-hee.

-Han Jun-hee.

-And what about you?

Um, I am… I'm Koo Yeon-jun.

Yeah, Koo Yeon-jun.

Hmm.

Although I don't have

the club president with me right now,

you're more than welcome

to fill out an application form.

Or instead, you can take our brochure

and decide later after looking it over.

Do you wanna take one with you?

Yes, I'll take one.

Uh…

Where… Ah, here it is.

Hmm.

So take a look

and come back once you're ready, okay?

Oh, um, here. Take this.

Goodbye, Sung-hoon.

Oh, have you decided

to fill out an application?

Here it is.

I really like you.

-Huh?

-I like you a lot, Jun-hee.

Uh…

-Are you sure that I am the right girl?

-Uh-huh.

Oh.

But didn't we just meet

like a second ago? Isn't that right?

The amount of time

has nothing to do with this.

I already knew you long before I met you.

And it's taken me a really long time

to see you again, Jun-hee.

I know

it doesn't make any sense right now, but

I don't want

to waste time anymore with us.

We were meant to be, Jun-hee.

Hey, you're totally crazy, huh?

You look perfectly normal, and yet

you're definitely out of your mind.

Wait, what?

Hey, I have a boyfriend, actually.

Uh, you… you do? Who is it?

Seriously? Yes, I have a boyfriend,

so go away, huh?

And who the hell are you

to speak to me like this?

I just retook the exam

and we're the same age right now.

Uh, but what is

the boyfriend you're talking--

Listen!

You're still behind me in school

by an entire year.

If you don't want your head

to get beaten in like a drum,

then stop addressing me

as if I'm not your senior, all right?

-Hey, Jun-hee.

-Hi, honey.

-Let's grab something to eat.

-Great.

Okay.

So who is this? Is he new to campus?

Uh, I think he was

just about to leave, actually.

He was asking for directions.

Hey, do you wanna join

our school organization today?

No, he says he's considering joining

another organization, yeah?

I'm very hungry.

Please, I want something to eat.

-Hey, will you take over for me?

-Uh-huh.

-You're a lifesaver. Thanks a lot!

-All right.

We're on the 2nd floor

of the admin building.

It's open 24 hours a day, so drop by

anytime if you want to join our club.

No, just go and join that one

you originally wanted to. Bye.

Ah, who do we have here?

Good to see you again.

Do we know each other?

You seriously forgot?

During the practical exam,

I sat right here, yeah? Just like this.

Oh really?

-My name's, uh, Koo Yeon-jun.

-I'm Oh Chan-yeong.

Mmm.

Hey, do you have any plans tonight?

Uh… tonight? I'm going home.

What? That's boring, yeah?

I might have something for you to do then.

I met some girls from the business

department in my art class today,

so, um, I set up a group date

with three of them.

Some applause. Mm-hmm.

This is great. You can come with us.

Oh, no, thanks. I'm good.

Are you sure about that?

Don't worry. I'll do most of the talking.

You just need to show up

as yourself, okay?

'Cause I look like a sexy kitten,

so you'll be the cute puppy of the bunch.

Ah, it's just I'm a little tired today.

-How about we go another time then?

-Have it your way.

There might not be

another opportunity coming.

So long, puppy!

Yeah, aren't you just super cute?

I guess I should find someone else.

Perhaps a sloth.

Wait, business majors?

That's where Jun-hee studies.

Oh, so they might know her.

Wait! Hey! Hey, Chan-yeong!

Um, are you both studying art?

Why? Do we look really sculpted to you?

-So business is what you three study?

-Mmm.

Do you know a senior named

Han Jun-hee in any of your classes?

Han Jun-hee? I'm not sure.

Today was our first day at school.

We still don't know who's who yet.

Ah, really?

Hey, you're k*lling our vibe here.

Hello, everyone.

Are you all ready to order?

-Uh, what… what are you doing here?

-Why? Do you care?

What is this?

Who is she?

Ah, you're all new students.

Let me guess. Business school?

Yes, all of us.

Oh, no way!

I'm a business major too. Cool.

So I guess you're all friends.

No, it's a group date, actually.

Those three wanted to meet up today.

-Did you say a group date?

-Wait, no, it's…

it's not like that at all.

Well, let's hope

it goes well for all of you.

Definitely try and enjoy college life.

But I think you girls should be suspicious

of some of the male students here.

You know, the kind of guy who

falls in love with a woman he just met,

then goes on a group date. Hmm?

Hey, I said it's not like that. Okay?

So what would you like to order today?

Take a look.

Um, our female customers

tend to like the A and B set menus.

Um, as for guys…

At first, everything seemed like

it was going pretty good, you know.

Then that woman just

had to call you out

for coming onto her.

Those girls looked completely turned off,

and we lost them.

Hey.

Because of you,

the whole thing fell apart.

Ah, yes, yes, it was all my fault.

Just move out of the way.

Wait, you serious?

Are you, um,

really waiting to see that woman?

It was just all a misunderstanding.

To be honest,

I don't think she really cares.

I've been waiting so long

to meet her.

-I can't just give up on her.

-Wait, so have you two met before?

-I'm so hungry.

-Oh!

-Wanna get dessert?

-I have a date with Do-hyeon.

-Jun-hee!

-Oh, there he is.

-Aw, they're so cute.

-Good job, everyone!

-Good night!

-See you tomorrow.

I guess you will have to give up on her.

That sucks.

Shame she's got a boyfriend, huh?

I'll see you later.

Hmm.

Hmm. Mmm.

Oh, I'm so relieved. I was so hungry.

-Are you sure the portions are big enough?

-This is more than enough.

Could we please get one

more portion of noodles?

-Okay.

-Better dig in.

Would you like some broth?

How could she have a boyfriend?

How could she do this to me?

So Jun-hee didn't, um,

tell you that she had a, uh,

boyfriend before dating Koo Yeon-jun?

No, she never mentioned anyone else.

All she ever talked about

was me as Yeon-jun.

Han Jun-hee,

how dare you do this to us?

Well…

…I'm a bit amused, to be honest.

So Jun-hee doesn't know

anything about you yet.

That's right.

Jun-hee, um, doesn't even care

to know who I am.

Now I know how she must have felt

when she first woke up from a coma

in the hospital and saw me there. Hmm.

How lonely she must have felt

way back then.

While I was preparing

for the college exam,

at the time, I figured

it'd be quite simple,

just meeting Jun-hee all over again.

I thought she'd recognize me

and we would fall

right back in love, you know.

I really must sound like a complete fool.

All this time,

I held onto the memories we had together

not realizing

Jun-hee wouldn't have any of them.

She's totally different.

Everything that happened between us…

has been robbed of meaning now.

There's no way that's true, hmm?

You two didn't meet

under ordinary circumstances.

There must be a way

to get close to Jun-hee again.

You just have to find one.

You really think so?

Yeon-jun was always there

for me in the beginning,

even though I kept

my distance from him at first.

He never pressured me into liking him.

Still, when times got tough later with me,

he was always there through it all.

You said you were keeping

your distance from him.

-So how did you end up getting close?

-Our paths kept crossing.

Wherever I went,

I would always run into him,

and so it became our thing, you know.

I'd see him in class, at our school club.

We even worked

at the same restaurant together.

And so gradually we

got to know each other that way.

I think I…

I think I know what to do.

In the past, Jun-hee already gave me

all the hints that I'll need.

That's it. I'll see you later.

Hey, Jun-hee, what should we eat

after class is finished?

-Ramen noodles.

-Okay, sounds good.

What are you doing here?

I'm pretty sure you're an art major.

You shouldn't be here.

Uh, this class is open

to all students, last I checked.

I'm still a freshman,

so I'm going to sample classes

from several different majors.

Mmm. Okay, did you really believe

that I would fall for that today?

Well, that's entirely up to you.

Everybody's still free to take this class.

Hey, don't speak so casually to me.

I'm your elder.

You only told me not

to address you by name,

but I don't remember you telling me

not to speak informally. Am I mistaken?

Um, well, in that case, have a good class.

-Let's go, huh?

-So who is this?

It's very nice to meet you, miss.

I'm Koo Yeon-jun, class of '08.

Ah, Yeon-jun, I see.

You look like a really nice guy.

I'm Oh Chan-yeong.

Nice to meet you, ladies.

The pleasure is all mine.

-Look how sweet and tall they are.

-Let's sit down.

-Okay, see you. Oh, why?

-Let's sit.

-But they're so cute

-Just sit down.

Okay, we can sit.

Hey, what's gotten into you?

Hello.

-Jun-hee.

-Oh, good evening, Mr. Manager.

Say hi. You'll be working

with Koo Yeon-jun starting today.

Uh… oh, hello.

Why bother coming all the way here

for a part-time job, huh?

Hmm?

Uh, I was looking for part-time work,

and Na-eun told me this place

was looking for new waiters.

Do you think I'm stupid?

I'm not falling for that.

You're here because of me, aren't you?

-Just say it.

-Um, that's right.

If I work here, will that make you,

um, uncomfortable?

-Yes.

-Then, um, I'm gonna quit.

Hey, actually, it's not a problem for me.

This job is really hard. I've seen so many

that quit in less than a day or so.

Just see for yourself.

And since you seem to think it's a piece

of cake working here, then let's see.

But I'm sure I'll hear about you quitting

in three days' time.

So are you saying

that I, uh, can work with you?

Uh-huh.

Just don't come crying to me.

Give it!

Uh…

-Lee Jun-woo, what are you doing?

-No, it was her!

Uh, don't worry about it. It's fine.

It's okay. It's okay.

Don't cry. It's okay, yeah?

Don't worry. Not a big deal.

I'll clean it.

-What the hell are you doing?

-I'm so sorry.

You're horrible at you job, you know?

-I apologize.

-Come on, man! What the hell? Huh?

-You made a really big mess here!

-It's all right, really. Don't worry.

Honey,

I'm taking your side right now.

I'm terribly sorry.

Honey, it's fine.

People make mistakes.

Yeah, Yeon-jun is attending

Jun-hee's university.

He's managed to meet her.

They work together now.

Well, it seems your plan

is really working.

All right then.

I don't think there's

anything to worry about yet.

All right, sounds good.

Thank you.

YEAR 2006

It's been a while, In-gyu.

Your grandma closed down

the snack bar today

so she could wait for you.

She should've retired long ago.

It's all because of me

that she couldn't retire.

It's all my fault.

Hey, don't say that.

She's been waiting for the day

you would return home.

She only stayed strong all because

she still has you, In-gyu, okay?

In-gyu is back

Oh, In-gyu!

Oh!

Ah.

I'm sorry.

No, don't say that!

You're here now. It's okay.

Everything's okay now.

Oh, my poor grandson.

Oh, my poor, poor baby.

-Where's your grandmother?

-She's asleep right now.

Ah.

I don't think we've ever drunk together

before now, huh?

I had a serious car accident

a few years ago.

I was in a coma

for several weeks, actually.

And my legs were, uh, like this

when I eventually woke up.

I was told by the doctor

that I was really lucky to be alive.

Then, I got a job here afterwards.

And from time to time,

I've been dropping by

to check on your grandmother too.

So these past few years,

I guess you could say

I've gotten my life back on track.

Ah.

Why are you talking

like nothing ever happened?

I k*lled Min-ju. You know I did.

How can you sit there

and pretend like everything is normal?

You must have a deep hatred for me.

I would never feel that way.

-I have no hatred towards you.

-I don't believe you.

I know Min-ju was the love of your life.

Yeah, both of us

loved her back then, In-gyu.

That's why I know you didn't k*ll her.

I know you would never do

something like that to anyone.

No matter what anyone says,

I know you.

Even though you saw it

with your own eyes in person?

You must really not

want to believe I did it.

NOKSAN m*rder INVESTIGATION CONTINUES

A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF m*rder SUSPEC

I'LL STOP IN-GYU'S DEATH NO MATTER WHA

So to get

to that apartment building,

go all the way down here, turn left,

and when you see

a small alley on the right…

-Ah…

-Uh, actually…

Huh?

I can walk you there. What do you think?

Really? But you must be busy.

I don't want to be a bother.

-Here let me carry your bags.

-I can carry these.

-No, it's okay. It's not heavy.

-Oh my.

-Let's go.

-Okay.

Are you

on your way to visit your kids?

Yes, my son lives there.

Deary, deary me.

I don't know why apartment names are

so difficult to understand these days.

I get confused whenever I come to Seoul.

Tell me about it.

I'd be nice if apartment names

were more simple.

Oh yes.

Oh, wow.

You're so handsome and…

and you're quite tall as well, aren't you?

You look like my grandson.

Actually, seeing you reminds me

of my friend's grandmother.

Jun-hee.

-Yeah, what?

-I got someone new to join. Take a look.

-A new member?

-Come in.

-Do you remember this guy?

-Uh…

Oh, wait. I have to go

to the dean's office.

Can you take care of his application

on my behalf?

Thanks.

Uh, see you. Thank you so much.

I, uh… I can explain myself, Jun-hee.

What for? You're just gonna give me

another made-up reason

like you needed

an organization to join today, right?

-No, I'm actually here because of you.

-Hey.

If you're uncomfortable,

I can get going, yeah?

Shall I just go then, huh?

No, forget it.

Just fill out the application form.

-Uh, really?

-Mm-hmm.

Hey.

Yeon-jun?

Uh, yeah?

Whenever you finish

staring at my face,

you can finish filling out the form, huh?

Oh, oh, oh…

Uh-huh.

You need to stop gawking at me in public.

Otherwise,

Do-hyeon could get the wrong idea.

Then you have to stop

looking so pretty all the time.

Ugh, why is she doing this again?

Hmm? Hey, what is it?

It's just my friend.

She broke up with her boyfriend yet again.

Now she wants me

to go to her right away and console her.

Don't know why she's like this.

I think you had better go.

Don't you think?

Forget it. I can't keep indulging her.

Seriously, who gives up on life

all because of a break-up?

She's just being a crybaby.

Even as her friend, I'm fed up with it.

What if she really needs you to be there?

This could be a cry for help from her.

Don't you think?

She could be going through a hard time.

You're saying that

'cause you don't know her.

-But she's always like this.

-She's still your friend.

What if you ignore her call for help,

and something happens to her?

You'll end up feeling really bad that you

weren't there for her in the first place.

You could end up losing her.

You'd lose that friend forever.

Just go and be there for her.

In any case,

she's having a hard time right now.

What about In-gyu?

Did you hear anything about him?

Oh, In-gyu, um…

I know he was sentenced to nine years

and has been in prison

serving his sentence.

That means,

if he completes his entire sentence,

then he'll be…

he'll be out of prison

this year or even sooner.

Have you heard anything about that?

So he got out

of prison on parole last year.

Ah, so, um, did you happen

to hear where he is now?

In-gyu…

Hey, what is it?

In-gyu…

k*lled himself shortly after

he got out.

At the very spot

where Min-ju had passed away.

Ah.

There you are.

The manager told me to wipe the dishes

with a dry cloth before we can go.

I can do it. You go home for the day.

Mmm. Let's do it together.

So we'll be done faster, huh? Hmm?

So my family runs a dry-cleaning business.

And it was really tough

for them last year.

That's when my mom and dad

started to fight a lot.

They even talked about

closing down the business too.

But out of nowhere,

my dad ended up falling ill.

And my mom

blamed herself a lot after that.

She felt

that if she had treated him a lot nicer,

then maybe

he wouldn't have gotten so sick.

Sometimes when something bad happens

to someone we know,

we wonder if we could've prevented

any of it from happening.

Although my mom blamed herself,

it's not her fault.

What I'm saying, Yeon-jun, is that I hope

you won't be as hard on yourself.

If you ever need someone to talk to

in the future, I hope you'll come to me.

I can be a shoulder to lean on.

Is your father doing okay now?

Of course, he's perfectly fine now.

He still works out religiously

every morning,

and he still bickers with my mom,

all the while running

the dry cleaners together.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm falling over.

Tell me, Jun-hee.

I heard today is your birthday.

Are you having a birthday party later?

Hey, what the hell?

What are you trying to give me,

a heart attack? Seriously!

We're having it later after school, hmm?

Oh, hey! Do you wanna come?

So we can go? You're inviting us, right?

What's wrong?

They can come.

Um, hello?

Ah, Mr. Manager.

Ah, today? Really?

I have the day off though.

Ah, don't worry. I'll go in today. Bye.

It looks like I won't make

my own birthday party.

Why, hmm?

Because they're a big group booking

tonight at the restaurant, that's why.

But it's your day off today.

Just tell him you can't do it.

How could I?

He's been with putting up with Do-hyeon

stepping out early all the time.

What a woman of virtue, huh?

I don't understand.

Your boyfriend always does this to you,

and yet you always end up

covering for him.

-Mmm.

-I'll do it.

I can go instead of you.

Your birthday party's today.

What's going on?

You definitely said you had

something going on later tonight.

I'm not gonna ask you to work

so I can have fun.

It's okay. You do your thing.

-No, it's all right. It's nothing urgent.

-Hmm?

In case I ever need my shift covered,

you'll be the person I ask first, okay?

Uh, you sure you're okay with this?

Don't worry, all right?

I need to get to class. See you later.

I don't have class, but I'll come with.

Uh, thank you so much, Yeon-jun.

I recommend set B

for the two of you tonight.

You can customize the sides

if you really want to.

-Is set B okay?

-Yeah.

Oh, then we'll have set B.

Are the sides okay?

-Let's just have it as is.

-Then, we'll have set B.

-Ah, set B then for you two?

-Yes.

All right then.

I'll bring some water right away.

Thanks.

What's this? What are you doing here?

Do-hyeon was busy tonight,

so, uh, I decided I should cover

my own shift, you know.

Huh?

What's more important

than your girlfriend's birthday?

-You made it.

-Yes.

Great. Please take

that customer's order. Hurry.

-Let's talk later.

-Uh…

Thank you for coming in.

-So what are you doing after work?

-Hmm?

-Going home, I guess.

-Mmm. Yeah.

After I'm done I'm gonna go home

and finish my assignments.

Do you mind waiting for me here?

I need to step out for minute.

I'll be quick, all right?

Sir, wait!

Hey, wait.

Are you closing for the day?

I'm closing for the day.

Uh, sir, hold on. I need one cake, please.

-Oh, Yeon-jun.

-Oh. Ah…

Jun-hee had to leave.

She left quite suddenly

but asked me to apologize on her behalf.

She's already gone?

She got a call from her boyfriend,

so I'm not sure what is going on entirely.

Ah, her boyfriend, that's right.

-You should go home now too.

-Yes, sir.

-There you are. I'm here.

-Oh.

Oh, Do-hyeon, who is this girl?

Here. Have a seat.

I asked you who this is, so you

have to introduce us before I'll sit.

Well, I'm not sure what to say.

We agreed to this.

You better tell her or else.

So this is a girl I

used to go out with, and, uh…

I guess we originally

broke up out of anger.

The more I thought about it,

I really began to miss her.

It was a mistake to break up with her,

you see?

So what I'm saying is, um,

I've been confused with my feelings.

Yeah, that's it.

I see.

So basically,

you were seeing her on the side. Huh?

So every time that you

kept looking at your phone in private

and kept making excuses

to leave work early,

it was all so you could

just meet her on the side. Am I right?

-Jun-hee.

-How could I be so stupid?

I should've seen this.

If I kept this from you longer,

I'd be doing you wrong.

-Have compassion. I'm here to be honest--

-Hey, what's wrong with you?

Hey, why don't you just sit down

and keep your mouth shut, all right?

And you, you say you want to be honest

when you have lied this entire time?

You stab me in the back,

then pretend this is for my benefit?

Exactly who do you think you are, huh?

Thanks for giving me

such a memorable and amazing birthday.

Hey, Jun-hee.

I never want to see your face again, okay?

Whether at the school club

or at the library, just stay away from me.

Hey, wait.

Huh? My wallet.

Um, yes, hello?

Hey, it's, uh, Yeon-jun.

Yeah?

So, uh, come to think of it,

I haven't wished you a happy birthday yet.

So I just wanted to say that

before the day was over.

Happy birthday, Jun-hee.

Oh, well, thank you.

Ah, you're with Do-hyeon

right now, aren't you?

-I'll… I'll hang up.

-Uh…

Just a second.

Earlier, why did you

ask me to wait for you?

Ah, um, it was nothing, actually.

Did… did you blow out

the candles on your cake?

-Uh, not yet.

-Huh?

How can you not blow out

your birthday candles?

If you make a wish after midnight,

it won't come true at all.

To be honest,

I actually thought a lot about

whether or not I should, uh, call you.

Still, I wanted to hear your voice

as I wished you a happy birthday.

Have a good one, yeah?

Why don't you wish me

a happy birthday to my face?

Please tell me you didn't…

Did you really run out just now

to get me a cake for tonight?

Hey, um, what are you doing back here?

I thought your were

with your boyfriend right now.

It looks like the candles

are starting to melt already.

Then you better make your wish

and blow out your candles, yeah?

Okay, I have my wish.

You should wish for something.

Hmm? But It's your birthday cake.

Then, in that case,

you have to do what I say, right?

My wish…

-It came true already.

-Mmm?

I wanted to be with you

for your birthday tonight.
